41
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,200

49
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 5: check it out. And I took a picture of episode

50
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 5: one like that was episode one because I wanted that

51
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 5: to be just untouched.

52
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 3: I like, no opinions. Yet.

53
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 2: We are sitting down my laptop on the bed F

54
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 2: one Drive to Survive Episode one.

55
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 3: Here we go, and and and then.

56
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 2: Because your your response was kind of like how many

57
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: episodes in? Are you this episode one? And and you

58
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 2: know when you're watching a streaming show and and you're

59
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 2: with your lady. I knew I was gonna know as

60
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 2: soon as episode one ended and that little box comes.

61
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 3: Up, like you want to do the next episode?

62
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 4: Or are we.

63
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 3: Falling asleep or moving on with life? What's happening? And uh,

64
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: she just looked at me and she's like, let's watch

65
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 3: another one. Yeah, yeah, right, let's what another one?

66
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 2: And then I really knew because I think two episodes

67
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: is probably all we had in us that night and

68
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: passed out and uh, and then I think it was

69
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 2: the next day we got back from the pool.

70
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: Kind of that mid after before.

71
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 2: Dinner thing, and she's she's coming out of the restroom,

72
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: out of the shower, and I hear who say from

73
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: the other room, Hey, you want to you want to

74
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,160

Speaker 4: Got her? Got her?

76
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 3: Got her?

77
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: So we're downloading episodes for the plane and then, like brother,

78
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 2: we got delayed so many different ways yesterday.

79
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: You don't even want to know.

80
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 2: This day started at eight am in Jamaica and ended

81
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 2: at twelve thirty at night Pacific time.

82
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 3: This was a long, frustrating travel day.

83
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: But you know, no complaints here, because that's the kind

84
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 2: of trip you work for and you're okay with you right,

85
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 2: So anyway, suffice it to say, I am now about I.

86
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 4: Think I'm just about.

87
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: I got like maybe one more episode to go for

88
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 2: season one, isn't it.

89
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: It's unbelievable and funny.

90
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 2: The funny thing is, and I don't know how many

91
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 2: of our listeners would you know, F one big deal

92
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 2: with the movie coming out right now and all that,

93
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 2: But like a lot of us, and I'm not afraid

94
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 2: to admit this, I've not really followed F one.

95
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 3: So I'm watching things that happened seven.

96
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 4: Years ago, seven years ago.

97
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 3: But to me, they're brand new.

98
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 4: That is. Let me sell you this.

99
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,239
Speaker 3: I got no idea what happens next.

100
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 4: Brother, I know this part because you can instantly find out,

101
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 4: Like when you're done with season one, you're gonna be like,

102
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 4: oh Ma, you're gonna get this feeling you get when

103
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 4: you know you can continue this journey. You can continue.

104
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 4: I told you seventy episodes five days with me and

105
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 4: my wife.

106
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 3: That's impressive.

107
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 4: My wife and I are going to two F one

108
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 4: races this year.

109
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 3: This year, I listen, it is this year.

110
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 2: First of all, the first credit goes to the actual

111
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 2: whoever made these documentaries.

112
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 3: Man, it is unbelievably well done.

113
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: And so if you do that, then anything, any story

114
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 2: can can pull you in.

115
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 4: So just wait.

116
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: But like what strikes me beyond the obvious, because I

117
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 2: think a lot of F one race fans are like,

118
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, there's cars, the roar. If

119
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 2: you love auto racing, then that's one thing. But my goodness,

120
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 2: the politics of how this sport works crazy. I am

121
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 2: still trying to deal with certain aspects of it, and

122
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 2: I have questions for you.

123
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 4: I'm here, I'm here. Remember I said to you. The

124
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 4: most riveting thing for me is the fact that these

125
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 4: two teammates are on a team, yes, and they hate.

126
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 4: It's the only sport I know. We're teammates.

127
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 3: Ha brother, I bet, I bet.

128
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 2: Ninety percent of our audience doesn't even know what Force

129
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 2: India is, right, like those two teammates, Oh my god,

130
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: my god. Like I was like, well, Kobe and Shack

131
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 2: are brothers compared to these two.

132
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 4: Right, so it is, But it go ahead. It's storytelling

133
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: at its best. At its best, it is so well done.

134
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 4: You get so captivated and caught up in it. Like

135
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 4: we we couldn't watch anything else. We kept looking at

136
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 4: each other like, let's run it. Our kids were coming

137
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 4: into the room like hey are you go, Hey man,

138
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 4: y'all old enough to make your own food? Right, get

139
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 4: out of our room. Okay, don't come in here. No.

140
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: It's that kind of storyteller where you're like, you know what,

141
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 2: there's a lot of parts of the day that are

142
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 2: getting in the way of me watching f y wait,

143
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: I'm fine.

144
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, if you thought the season and this

145
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 4: is the one thing that I'll say to you. They

146
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 4: know how to make racing for seventh and eighth more

147
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 4: exciting than anything incredibly dramatic.

148
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 3: Yes, like they're like, oh.

149
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 4: P nine, Yeah, we did it, and it's just like, ah, snap.

150
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 2: You don't even have any Like it's it's twenty or

151
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: ten different racing teams, but they're all racing a different race.

152
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 3: A lot of them have no interest in number one.

153
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 4: So the thing that I'll tell you, okay, that you're

154
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 4: going to experience is you've already done with season one.

155
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 4: You got one episode left. They never talk about the

156
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 4: teams at the top of the leader board in.

157
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: Season one or season in season one, okay, no, I know,

158
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: like Lewis Hamilton. We keep telling my girl, you just

159
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 2: see him walk by. I go, you haven't even seen

160
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: the guy you just love?

161
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 4: You just see him walk by.

162
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 3: Like I'm like, listen, I know people and you're a female,

163
00:08:59,120 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 3: and you're.

164
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 4: Gonna like we're going to him.

165
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: That's like all that you're watching. You ain't even met

166
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: the dude yet, Like that's the dude. It'd be like

167
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: doing a full season of Major League Baseball on Netflix

168
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 2: and you don't even meet show heyl.

169
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 3: Tom and Aaron Judge.

170
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 4: You just see them walking in the background, just like

171
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 4: who's that and what and what we surmised was when

172
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,839
Speaker 4: Netflix approached him to do this, they were like, yeah,

173
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 4: we're cool, right, We're not going to let you get

174
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 4: in the way of what we got going on over.

175
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 2: Here, or maybe that that story is too clean. It's

176
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 2: just like where's the drama. Like they've got all the money,

177
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 2: he wins all the championships, Yay, we hug, we go home.

178
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 4: You get introduced to him in season two, I'm sure,

179
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 4: and just riveting from then on out. It is like,

180
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: oh my.

181
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 2: Gosh, brother, I can't wait, like definitely all hooked and everything,

182
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 2: and I'm already like, I mean, I love you, but

183
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 2: I'm like, when's the show over.

184
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 3: Right?

185
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 2: But okay, But here's the thing. There's one thing and

186
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 2: it's not even the documentary. It's the sport. There's one

187
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 2: thing that when it came up, I'm like, I can't

188
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 2: wait to talk to Ephraim and our audience about this

189
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 2: because I didn't know this. I have followed as many

190
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 2: sports as I possibly could my whole life. Our lives

191
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 2: are sports. This is what we do for a living.

192
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: It's what we love. Ephraim, I have never met a

193
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 2: sport in my entire life that effectively does free agency

194
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: in the middle of the year.

195
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 4: How is this pozzible while you're still working?

196
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 2: Imagine So if you are a fan of more mainstream sport,

197
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 2: imagine if when Lebron James went to the Miami Heat,

198
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 2: I want you all to follow me now.

199
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 3: He announced it at a press conference.

200
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 4: In January All Star Break and.

201
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: Then went to play for the Cavaliers that night after

202
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 2: announcing to the world.

203
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 3: This happened eight times. How is that possible gonna be

204
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 3: set up that way?

205
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 4: Like, Hey, I'm not driving for you guys. Make sure

206
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 4: I'm driving for Williams, or I'm driving for has or

207
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 4: I'm driving for Ferrari. It's just like, but I'm gonna

208
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 4: finish these eight races with you guys, what right?

209
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 2: Or you might have a race team that has to

210
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 2: select because in one case they're bringing on a new

211
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: driver because he's the son of the owner who right, huh.

212
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: And so you've got these two drivers. One of them's

213
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 2: older and accomplished, the other one's younger and doing better,

214
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 2: and you've got to pick one.

215
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 3: And then they just do it right before the race.

216
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 2: And then the guy who now knows he's got no

217
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 2: spot for next year is going to head out to

218
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 2: the track and go against the guy who does have

219
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: a spot, and you're gonna tell me that people aren't

220
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: gonna like crash into each other on purpose and stuff

221
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 2: like that.

222
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 3: Like, dude, it was crazy. It was crazy.

223
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 2: And I think that that was one of the things

224
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: we identified with the most because like my lady, for example,

225
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 2: years ago, many many years ago, she used to work

226
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: for the forty nine ers, okay, right, at a marketing

227
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 2: level and things like that. But one thing she said,

228
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 2: like to you know, I was like, man, wait e

229
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 2: from told me about the politics between the drivers and

230
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 2: their teammates, but they hate each other. She's like, don't

231
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 2: you realize that that is actually how it always works?

232
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 2: She goes, do you think that the backup quarterback isn't

233
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 2: on the sideline rooting for a torn achilles? She literally

234
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: said that to me. She said that to me, and

235
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 2: I'm like, I mean, like, on some levels.

236
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 4: She's probably right and they're not wrong, right.

237
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 2: So anyway, man, that's what stood out to me the most.

238
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: And I'm like why, I want to know, why why

239
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 2: did they do it that way?

240
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 4: It to me, it feels like they have to be prepared, right,

241
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 4: So I don't think their off season is long enough

242
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 4: for them to handle all of those things. And plus

243
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,400
Speaker 4: they have a break in the middle of the season yep,

244
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: like a long summer break, right, which today was their

245
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 4: first race back Belgium Belgium Spa right, and it was

246
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 4: delayed for I don't know two three hours because of

247
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 4: the rain. They read flag the uh the warm up

248
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 4: lap they red flagged it and so they you know,

249
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 4: they didn't start for a couple hours. And so it's

250
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 4: it's one of those sports where they take off, like

251
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 4: guys go on vacation in the middle of the season,

252
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 4: like snowboarding and camping and going to the beach for

253
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 4: a couple months, and then they come back and I'm

254
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 4: just like, look, man, I am just I'm riveted. I

255
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 4: can't get enough.

256
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 3: I mean, that was the crazy thing for me.

257
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 2: And by the way, again, mainstream audience, follow me here.

258
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 2: It's not just Lebron James leaves for the Heat in

259
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: the middle of the season and then puts his Cabs

260
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 2: uniform back on seemingly. The press conferences would also include

261
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 2: both the Heat and the Cavaliers general managers sitting next

262
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 2: to each other so that they can all announce this

263
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 2: and then look at each other and hate each other

264
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 2: right there for the world to.

265
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 4: See, and then go race against each other, then have

266
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 4: a game at two hundred miles an hour.

267
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I was like, what is happening?

268
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 4: You never seen a dynamic like this in any sport.

269
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 3: So crazy man.

270
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 2: So anyway, in the end of all of this, thank you,

271

322
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:36,959
Speaker 2: that you told me that the not leaving the resort

323
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 2: thing was what we were supposed to do. Not that

324
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 2: I really like care about being judged at this stage

325
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 2: of my life. But when you go that far, there

326
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 2: is this pull of like, well, should we see the island?

327
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 3: It's beautiful?

328
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 4: Here were your kids there? New brother? Yeah, right there.

329
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 4: When you go on vacation or go somewhere with your kids,

330
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,479
Speaker 4: then you go see stuff. When you can get away

331
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 4: from your kids, you go see each other. And that's

332
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 4: what we did. We wool, drinks, food and sun.

333
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,880
Speaker 3: And that's it. And that's it. And oh, by the way,

334
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 3: I do.

335
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 2: The only other thing I want to say about the

336
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 2: culture there though, because enough people around and obviously those

337
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 2: who populate and are employed by those kinds of resorts,

338
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 2: the Jamaican culture, I'm addicted, absolutely.

339
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 3: And y'all should be too.

340
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: In other words, you have people and you can you

341
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 2: step foot on the island one time and you're like, oh,

342
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of money here.

343
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 4: There's not a lot of money here.

344
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 2: But these people are so happy, so thankful and so

345
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 2: relaxed about everything, and you're.

346
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 3: Just like, ugh, I'm pretty sure they're doing it right,

347
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 3: and a lot of us.

348
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 4: Are huge difference.

349
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 3: My god, my goodness.

350
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 2: We met a one of the wonderful bartenders who served

351
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 2: us one of the many drinks.

352
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 4: We were talking to her.

353
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 2: Her name was Terry Ann, and she goes, we were

354
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 2: talking about I think just when we were leaving or whatever.

355
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: She's like, you know, how long you hear And at

356
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 2: some point the airport comes up and she's like, I've

357
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 2: never been on a plane.

358
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 3: Now this resort is like two miles from the airport.

359
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: Planes are just flying.

360
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,400
Speaker 2: Over it all day long, and she goes, I've never

361
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 2: been on a plane, and so I'm quickie from I

362
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 2: put two and two together and I looked at her

363
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 2: because she's probably in her forties, late thirties at least,

364
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 2: and I'm like, have you never been off of this island?

365
00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 3: She just like nope. And that was not like an

366
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 3: odd thing, that was not abnormal, you know, just like

367
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 3: wow wow.

368
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 2: So anyway, you know, tuck some some perspective and life

369
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 2: experiences into the whole thing too.

370
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,960

00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 2: That's sixty percent of what they say. Yeah, that's it.

375
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,920
Speaker 2: That's their answer to everything. And I'm like, yeah, man,

Speaker 2: We we had a wonderful time and I have a

382
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 2: ton of gratitude for the opportunity to be there.

383
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 3: All right, Can I try something we don't usually do

384
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 3: on this show?

385
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 4: Hey man, you can try whatever you want to do.

386
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 3: I want to have Aaron Rodgers back for a second.

387
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 3: Oh all right, I know, right right? How does this?

388
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 2: I don't know whw I missed this or like it

389
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,479
Speaker 2: just didn't resonate at the time. Can I ask you

390
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 2: how this resonates with you? Go back, like I don't know,

391
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 2: maybe four months and rumors of the Steelers and Aaron

392
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 2: Rodgers are percolating, and Terry Bradshaw says, quote, what are

393
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 2: you going to do?

394
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 3: Bring him in for one year? Are you kidding me?

395
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 2: That guy needs to stay in California, go somewhere and chew.

396
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 3: On bark and whisper to the gods out there.

397
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 2: He told that to one oh three seven the buzz

398
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 2: in Arkansas.

399
00:21:59,520 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 3: How's that?

400
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 4: I want to grab you. That's a very specific yes,

401
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 4: that's uh. Look, Aaron Waders wants to play football. I

402
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 4: don't agree with how he went about it. And you know,

403
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 4: but obviously the thing we know now is the Stealers

404
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 4: were they understood exactly what was going to happen. There's

405
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 4: a lot of speculation on what was going to happen

406
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 4: prior to it happening, and so we were like, wow,

407
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 4: they're waiting they're wasting time, they're missing their window. It's

408
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 4: obvious to me to see that they knew they were

409
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 4: going to have Aaron Rodgers this year, so they didn't

410
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 4: address it in the draft or any other place, and

411
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 4: so they put all their eggs in one basket and

412
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 4: knew that basket would be delivered at some point before

413
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 4: training camp, and it came. It was delivered. Now he's

414
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 4: he's a quarterback. He's got weapons on the outside, he's

415
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 4: got weapons on the inside. He's got a running game,

416
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 4: and it got a defense. He couldn't want a better situation.

417
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 4: And you know, a coach and an organization. So it's

418
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 4: a situation where now, all right, it's to the point

419
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 4: where you got to show me what you got. Now,

420
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 4: show me what you got. And for all of us

421
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 4: who were like, I can't believe that this is happening,

422
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 4: and what are they doing, they obviously know what they

423
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 4: were doing. Jokes on us, just like we know what

424
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 4: we're doing here on this show, yep, and at this

425
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 4: time do it. Every hour we bring in our guy,

426
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 4: our goat, our savior.

427
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 9: That's a little much, not much, good evening, gentlemen, and

428
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 9: congratulations again to you.

429
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 4: Sounded very fun.

430
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 9: And by the way, for anybody who's been Hawaii, it's

431
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 9: a little bit of that flavor that you're exactly discussing,

432
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 9: like why am I not here all the time to

433
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 9: get on the plane to come back?

434
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 4: Honestly that kind of works.

435
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 3: Yeah.

436
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 9: And as a sports fan with the time difference, can

437
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 9: I just say I was we were there during the

438
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 9: NBA playoffs and I'm watching a live game from Madison

439
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 9: Square Garden Nicks against whoever in the playoffs, and we're

440
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 9: at lunch. The game finishes in the afternoon. There's such

441
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 9: a time difference between New York and Honolulu. We had,

442
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 9: you know how many hours still remaining in the afternoon,

443
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 9: much less the evening, and the day was I mean

444
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 9: the evening was over for sports, it was.

445
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 2: It's very wild because now there is some family lineage

446
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 2: from my wife to Hawaii to a large like her

447
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,840
Speaker 2: dad lives in Kawhi, grew up there, still lives in Kawhi.

448
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 3: So we talk about what you're talking about quite often.

449
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 2: And you want to know, the new thing that really

450
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 2: really is crazy there is when they have that London game. Now,

451
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 2: that London game, as you know, if you're a West

452
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,160
Speaker 2: Coast sucker starts at about six.

453
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 4: In the morning. Yep, I love thirty in the morning.

454
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 3: So now, if you're in Hawaii.

455
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 2: And you have a fantasy team and you need to

456
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 2: make a decision about whether or not someone's active, it's

457
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 2: three in the morning and you've.

458
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 3: Got to figure this out.

459
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 2: So we try to give him a couple extra points

460
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 2: in our league because you know there's a little disadvantage there.

461
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 9: Yeah, that kind of takes the fun out of it.

462
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, quite honestly.

463
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 9: Well, we've got a Sunday that ball game going out

464
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 9: in the Bay Area. The Mets have won six in

465
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 9: a row. They've just taken the lead at San Francisco

466
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 9: two to one over the Giants in the top of

467
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,840
Speaker 9: the fifth. The Mets are the first place team in

468
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 9: the NLE, so they were a half game over the

469

482
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,560

00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:28,200
Speaker 9: last year? Four? Max Scherzer, Clayton Kersha, Justin Verlander, who

484

Speaker 9: greats of this entire era, all winding down. Let's just

504
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 9: NASCAR race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Michael Jordan was

505
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 9: the winner, and on top of that, the driver who

506
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 9: finished third was the winner.

507
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 4: I will explain.

508
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,400

00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 9: year's Brickyard four hundred winner was the runner up. The

513
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 9: guy who finished third is the guy who started last

514
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 9: in the back of the pack with a backup car,

515
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,360
Speaker 9: Denny Hamlin. He finished third. You see, he also co

516
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 9: owns Wallace's car for twenty three to eleven racing. You

517
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,719
Speaker 9: may have heard of number twenty three. Yeah, Michael Jordan

518
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 9: owns that car. He won the Brickyard four hundred today.

519
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 9: So Wallace clinches a playoff spot. Four events left until

520
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 9: the full sixteen driver field is set for their ten

521
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,919
Speaker 9: race NASCAR postseason back to you.

522
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 2: Okay, so you see, Steve, what you just did there,

523
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 2: and that's NASCAR, not F one. Those are different things.

524
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 2: But that's a little slice of basically the intersection of

525
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 2: the business and the sport in racing that I am

526
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 2: quickly now learning about of sports.

527
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 4: Baby, good lord, there is a lot going on back there.

528
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 9: Intersection is in is an innocent word to test it actually.

529
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 4: Goes very very yes, yes, I mean it's compelling. I'm

530
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 4: telling you, man, I'm telling you it is to be

531
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 4: able to hear the drivers talking and the principles and

532
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 4: the crew and look, you got to understand their pit stops.

533
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 4: Two seconds all right. Three seconds is too long. Yep.

534
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 3: I don't even know how that works. It's so crazy.

535
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 4: It's like you got yes and four new tires and

536
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 4: sometimes the front end and two seconds right, and because

537
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 4: that's the you come in and you're ahead, you can

538
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 4: come out in fifth place. Yep. That's just how it is.

539
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 3: I think that. I think all of us.

540
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: If you're a fan of sport, you are familiar with

541
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: the idea of pressure when there is a lot of

542
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 2: pressure on an athlete or on a team, or on

543
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 2: a coach or a manager or whatever. But it seems

544
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 2: to come more so in spurts, you know what I mean. Okay,

545
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: tie game and Kobe's got the ball in his hands

546
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 2: with ten seconds left to go, or what have you.

547
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 2: In motorsports, it appears to me that everybody has their

548
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: life on the line every minute. And when I say life,

549
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,479
Speaker 2: I'm either talking about the drivers who are going two

550
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 2: hundred miles an hour and have their wheels touching each other,

551
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 2: or at least the livelihood of everybody who's in that garage.

552
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 2: I've never seen that kind of tension and that much

553
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 2: on the line. That is often also, by the way,

554
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 2: completely out of your control.

555
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 4: It is a sign to see Steve, do you watch

556
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 4: do you watch that show? F one drives as far? No,

557
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 4: why not?

558
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 9: I don't have that streaming?

559
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 3: Oh you don't have Netflix?

560
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 4: I do not? Okay, okay, what we do it? I

561
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,520
Speaker 4: will go why further?

562
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 9: When I hear people like some of the people that

563
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 9: are on Monday through Friday here talk about one show

564
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 9: after another that they're going the life, my first response

565
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 9: is how many hours in your day compared to my day?

566
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 4: People?

567
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 9: This is during football season. This would be impossible for.

568
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 4: Me to in football. That's why we're doing it.

569
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 3: Now, right.

570
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 2: But but he from like to Steve's point, I think

571
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 2: it's the first thing I said to you when you

572
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 2: started talking platform and seven the episodes in five days,

573
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 2: I'm like, did your kids go live with someone else?

574
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 3: Like? How how do you find that word?

575
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 2: The word binge to me has always you know, and

576
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 2: I'm not talking about when somebody just decides to have

577
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 2: two tough of ice cream. The word binge has always

578
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 2: made me somewhat jealous and confused, because I'm like, I

579
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 2: don't even know how how do you do it?

580
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 4: No one says you have to go to bed or

581
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 4: at a reasonable I'm talking about. I've looked over and

582
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, it's four thirty.

583
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 3: I'm like, you don't mean in the afternoon.

584
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 4: No, no, no, I'm like, oh, snap, this is four thirty.

585
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 4: We got to go to sleep.

00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 2: Oh dude, So put it this way. I do plan

587
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 2: to watch seventy episodes. I don't know if I can

00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 2: get it done by Christmas. I really don't, but I'm

589
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:38,520

00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 4: I trust me. You're going to find ways because you're

594
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 4: going to be wondering what's going on next, Like, so

00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 4: Not when you put f one on, whether he wants

606
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,960

Speaker 3: Yeah?

625
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 4: No, I've we in the media.

626
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 3: I'm put in the call before I've put in the.

627
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 9: Call, exactly. I think Mark can back me up on

628
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,240
Speaker 9: this because we've worked in local radio and network radio

629
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,839
Speaker 9: for many years. Yeah, there is a let's just say,

630
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 9: a hierarchy of employees that it really doesn't matter how

631
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 9: many years you've been at one spot. Some it's kind

632
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 9: of like animal farms. Some are some are better employees

633
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 9: than others. If you get the George Orwell reference.

634
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: There's that, and then there's also like how far does

635
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 2: your reach go? Like if something is happening with the

636
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,240
Speaker 2: Dodgers of the Giants, Steve could put in the call.

637
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 2: I could put in the call if I want to

638
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 2: do something in the world at F one, I don't

639
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 2: even know who I would call. Who the hell am

640
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 2: I calling?

641
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 4: Look, they're all broadcaster. Look when what we do know

642
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 4: is there's media at every sporting event. Yes, yes, yes,

643
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 4: every outlet is at every sporting event.

644
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 3: Wait, but you didn't get your wife a credential, did you?

645
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 4: Hey man, why are you in my business like that?

646
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 4: Why are you all Why would you ask a question

647
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 4: like that on masson radio.

648
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 9: This reminds me when the NFL season was starting and

649
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 9: I saw a fellow media member had the live game

650
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 9: streaming on his phone and I said, oh, did you

651
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 9: buy the package? And he just paused and looked at

652
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 9: me and said, don't worry about it.

653
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:49,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, the call call up in my house? What's going

654
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,439
Speaker 4: on over here?

655
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, very very good. Well, no, I'm I'm I'm

656
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 2: impressed by the way. You know what else I want

657
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 2: to ask you? Are they are they still filming this?

658
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 2: Oh yes, it's still going Oh yeah, okay, so like

659
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 2: as I get to seventy episodes, there's gonna actually be

660
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 2: eighty yes, okay yeah.

661
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 4: And and let me tell you this. You want to

662
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 4: talk about a bombshell Oh what season? Don't you gotta

663
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:18,399
Speaker 4: get to it?

664
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 2: You know what, I'm gonna write it down on a

665
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 2: piece of paper. Now, what what my prediction is?

666
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 4: Brother? Brother?

667
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 3: I think I'm mad.

668
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 4: I have no idea. I promise you you can.

669
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 2: I'm gonna scribble it. I'm gonna put it in the

670
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 2: time capsule. At Christmas.

671
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 3: We're gonna find out.

672
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 4: Oh, you're gonna be done before This sounds.

673
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 9: Made the equivalent like if there was some series about

674
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,280
Speaker 9: the NBA this last year, but somebody who was watching

675
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,800
Speaker 9: the series doesn't know the NBA, right, you know, Luca

676
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 9: is gonna be traded.

677
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 3: Like there's no way, There's no way.

678
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 4: That's how that's how obscure. If one is year things

679
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 4: happen that are huge, that are happening right now that

680
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 4: you wouldn't even know right, like you wouldn't even know. No, no,

681
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 4: you just wait.

682
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 2: There were little moments where I did step out of

683
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,919
Speaker 2: myself as we're watching this, and actually my wife kept

684
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 2: reminding me.

685
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 3: She's like, you know, this happened seven years ago.

686
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 4: Right, yes, we had to keep doing that too. I'm like,

687
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 4: this happened all but like I'm mad at certain things

688
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 4: and I'm like, oh this this okay, we got we

689
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 4: gotta do something about that odor.

690
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 2: Oh wait a minute, that was the twenty eighteen Okay,

691
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 2: all right, Fox Sports Radio Studios. I got more to

692
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 2: say on that Rogers Broadshell thing, and we will next

693
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:36,240
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio.

694
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 4: All right.

695
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 3: These are the Fox Sports Radio Studios.

696
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 2: Mark Wheeler to e from salam with you probably having

697
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 2: a little bit too much fun, but that's just the

698
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 2: way it's gonna be.

699
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 4: The only way I want to keep doing the show

700
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 4: is if we have fun, Okay, then we will. Then

701
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,399
Speaker 4: we will. Yes.

702
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 3: So that's that's kind of the update. At this moment.

703
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 2: We have both have become and really at the urging

704
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 2: of Ephraim, we have we have become big fans of

705
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:11,080
Speaker 2: the Netflix series that's been out for seven years. F

706
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 2: One Drive to survive and largely pushed by the movie

707
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 2: being out and whatnot. I'm also just fresh back from

708
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 2: my honeymoon from Jamaica. Got back late, late, late last night.

709
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 2: It was unbelievable. So we've been having fun with all

710
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 2: of that. But there's plenty going on across with the

711
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 2: baseball deadline around the corner. Training camps are open in

712
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 2: the NFL, and obviously there is a movement or maybe

713
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 2: in some cases the lock thereof.

714
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 3: In the NBA.

715
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 2: Just circling back real quick to that Terry Bradshaw comment

716
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 2: on Aaron Rodgers to the Steelers quote, what are you

717
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 2: going to do?

718
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 3: Bring him in for one year? Are you kidding me?

719
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 3: That guy needs to stay.

720
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 2: In California, go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper

721
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 2: to the gods out there. Aaron was asked about it

722
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 2: yesterday and I had a very classy response.

723
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 3: He's like, look, I'd love to connect with Terry.

724
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 2: Terry's a legend, He's won four Super Bowls, all the

725
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:07,240
Speaker 2: stuff you would want someone to say, doesn't Terry's comment

726
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 2: like the stay in California, go somewhere, chew on bark, whisper.

727
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 4: To the gods.

728
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,399
Speaker 2: I know, there's a lot of states out there where

729
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:18,439
Speaker 2: it's like in vogue to make fun of California right now,

730
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 2: doesn't that comment come from the same place that a

731
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,480
Speaker 2: lot of like discrimination type things come from.

732
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 3: Because that's kind of the vibe I got off of it.

733
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's your perception of what California is, even though

734
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 4: he works in California. Uh, fair point. There's a lot

735
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 4: of time here in these upcoming months, so it's you know,

736
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 4: it's it's terry man like older guys get old and

737
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 4: grumpy and curmudgeony, and it's just like a cool man

738
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 4: cool Yeah, I'm sorry, the glory days of the seventies

739
00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 4: and you know it, Aaron, Like I said, Aaron and

740
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 4: the Steelers knew exactly what was going on. So there

741
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 4: you have it, right, And he may be elluding that,

742
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 4: you know, Pittsburgh is a certain type of place and

743
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 4: you're from a different type of place, so you won't

744
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 4: fit here. Well, we'll see, we'll see, we'll see.

745
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 2: Speaking of changing places, maybe a conversation about Lebron James.

746
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 3: Coming up next.

747
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports.

748
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 2: Radio rolling into the evening wherever you may be, Thank

749
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,320
Speaker 2: you for doing it with us here Fox Sports Radio

750
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 2: Studios alongside e from Salama, Mark Willard, very very glad

751
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 2: that you're with us, and just to as we always do,

752
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 2: reintroduce ourselves. Ephram in southern California. He will represent the

753
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Lakers. I am in the San Francisco Bay Area.

754
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 2: I will represent the Golden State Warriors. However, in this

755
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,399
Speaker 2: particular conversation, the Golden State Warriors will not be coming up,

756
00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 2: because this conversation happens to be about one Lebron James

757
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 2: and actually, Ephraim, maybe I'd like to give you a

758
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 2: little bit of credit because I think, without maybe saying

759
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 2: it in actual words, what you were insinuating to me

760
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 2: a few weeks ago when the Lebron rumors started coming

761
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 2: up because his team and Rich Paul put out that

762
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 2: statement that made it sound like, Yep, I'm gonna stay

763
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 2: with the Lakers, but not really feeling it like this

764
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 2: is all kind of like Luca's team now, and it

765
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 2: clearly is. We are literally coming down to hours away

766
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 2: from when the Lakers can offer Luca a massive extension,

767
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,919
Speaker 2: and you can just read the tea leaves and tell

768
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 2: that they will and they're all about him, right, now,

769
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 2: and I don't think Lebron is used to that, even

770
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,879
Speaker 2: though he's forty years old. And it probably makes all

771
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,839
Speaker 2: kinds of sense, but it felt to me like you've

772
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 2: been saying, yeah, maybe it is time for him to

773
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 2: be somewhere else, but I don't know that that's necessarily

774
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 2: going to happen right away. And now there are reporters

775
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 2: I respect Mark Stein being one of them, who would

776
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 2: simultaneously predict that Lebron is not going to go anywhere

777
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 2: this year.

778
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 3: He is going to play for the Lakers, but he

779
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 3: does not think that Lebron is going to finish his

780
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:27,959
Speaker 3: career in LA. And so that tells me obviously, this

781
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 3: is not Lebron's last year coming up. And it makes

782
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 3: sense because I've always seen Lebron as somebody who will

783
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 3: tell us before the year starts, kind of like Aaron

784
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 3: Rodgers just did, this probably going to be my last year,

785
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,320
Speaker 3: and then he'll get to go on a retirement tour.

786
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 3: I think he wants that. That's just my perception.

787
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:53,359
Speaker 2: So what say you about the idea of one more

788
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 2: possibly at times bump a year in LA followed by

789
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 2: unrestrict free agency, which could and possibly would lead him

790
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 2: to the Dallas Mavericks where he can literally sit there

791
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 2: and play.

792
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 3: With all of his ex teammates at once and do

793
00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:18,359
Speaker 3: kind of a retirement tour slash one last ride at

794
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 3: a ring with the likes of Ad Kyrie and whoever else.

795
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 3: If there's a way to make all of that money work.

796
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be opposed to that. I mean, Lebron James

797
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 4: has earned the right to do something like that. So

798
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 4: as great as he's been for as long as he's

799
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 4: been great, look my awe, hats off to Lebron. As

800
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,760
Speaker 4: a Laker fan, the one thing I always tell people

801
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 4: is people are fans of players, right like, so, yeah,

802
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 4: Lebron fans who are now Laker fans because Lebron is there,

803
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:57,360
Speaker 4: but they're fans because Lebron's there. Right. You have fans

804
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 4: who are Lebron fans in Cleveland, and then Miami fans

805
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,799
Speaker 4: and so on and so forth, whether Lebron is here

806
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 4: or not. I'm a Laker fan. Whence Sedell three was

807
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,400
Speaker 4: running the point and Eldon Campbell will sit in the

808
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 4: high screen and roll, I was, I'm a Laker fan,

809
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 4: right like, so good bad the ugly. It's about the Lakers.

810
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 4: I think if you know, the Lakers get off to

811
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 4: the start that they can get off, they got a

812
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:31,280
Speaker 4: pretty good solid five. Is still some maneuvering to happen

813
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 4: to make sure they have some depth. But if they're

814
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 4: in the top three in the West, top four in

815
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 4: the West going into the All Star Break or the

816
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 4: trade deadline, I think they'll just go. They'll ride it

817
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 4: out and see what happens. If they're in good position,

818
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 4: they'll try to do something to trade deadline, they'll get

819
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 4: them better to give them opportunity to win a championship.

820
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 4: But I think after this year it's over now. If

821
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,800
Speaker 4: they aren't doing well and they get to that trade

822
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,520
Speaker 4: deadliner and there's a destination that Lebron wants to go

823
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,839
Speaker 4: to and they can make that happen, I think I'm

824
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 4: not a you know, opposed to them making that happen,

825
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 4: unless you'll get something in return for someone who's going

826
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,959
Speaker 4: to obviously walk away at the end of the year.

827
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,720
Speaker 4: But Lebron has a no trade claw, so it's literally

828
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 4: up to him and what that looks like for the Lakers.

829
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 4: But outside of that, I see him being there and

830
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 4: I don't see him being there in the future. Yeah,

831
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,399
Speaker 4: I mean, which I'm okay with. Yeah.

832
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 2: Well, and this year, like it almost feels like the

833
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 2: rumors that are out and about are forced. I get

834
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:51,359
Speaker 2: why people felt the way that they did when that

835
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 2: statement came out from Rich Paul. I think there's some

836
00:45:54,480 --> 00:46:00,200
Speaker 2: accuracy to what people took as a vibe of Okay,

837
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:05,799
Speaker 2: Lakers are now about Luca. That's I'm not Luca, but

838
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 2: I still have enough power to maybe like this, that

839
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:08,960
Speaker 2: or the other.

840
00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 3: I think that's all true.

841
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 2: But in a way, Lebron becomes just like all of

842
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 2: the restricted free agents out there. And that's to say, Look,

843
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 2: you can want to move all you want, but this

844
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 2: particular offseason maybe more than any other, with the Collective

845
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 2: Bargaining Agreement making the changes that it is, and sort

846
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:36,360
Speaker 2: of the lack of open cap space for so many teams,

847
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,280
Speaker 2: they're just flat out isn't.

848
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 4: Anywhere to go? Nowhere to go?

849
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 3: There's nowhere to go.

850
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 2: I don't know of a team that could absorb Lebron

851
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 2: James into what they're doing right now, at least without

852
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 2: completely gutting their team.

853
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 3: And why would they do that? And why would he

854
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 3: do that?

855
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not looking for that option, so that it

856
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 4: makes sense for him to play out this year. He's

857
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 4: with a top five player in the league. They got

858
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:05,200
Speaker 4: a big that they maybe who can rehability. It's going

859
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 4: to at least give him fourteen to nine a game,

860
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,719
Speaker 4: and you know you go from there. You got a

861
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,280
Speaker 4: third score and a third option who had a tremendous

862
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 4: year outside of you know, the last playoff series last year,

863
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 4: last season in Austin Reeves. So it's it's not a

864
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,800
Speaker 4: bad place to be if you're Lebron. No, the cupboard

865
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,400
Speaker 4: isn't bare by any stretch of the imagination, and so

866
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 4: he has an opportunity to compete still in the West

867
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 4: this year. Now what happens after that, Well, you know, hey,

868
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 4: God bless him, thank you for the championship, and you know,

869
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,919
Speaker 4: all all the best to you and your son.

870
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I do not see him in LA beyond

871
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 2: this year. I just don't even know how that would

872
00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 2: how that would make sense. But the one thing I

873
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 2: do wonder about this year, because I'll co sign with

874
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 2: everything you just said, it's a viable team. Is it

875
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:03,720
Speaker 2: a championship contender? I mean probably not, but there's a viable,

876
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 2: like high level Western Conference playoff caliber type team.

877
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 4: I think they can win an as it's currently constructed,

878
00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 4: they can win a first round series.

879
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,080
Speaker 3: They could, Yeah, they absolutely could. You know what I mean.

880
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 3: I mean, you gotta have the journey unfold.

881
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 2: I don't know who's gonna get hurt, who's gonna do well?

882
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,840
Speaker 2: Like I know teams on paper like, oh, it's Oklahoma

883
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 2: City and Houston. Well, we'll see, we'll see what the

884
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 2: whole thing looks like. But it's a viable team. What

885
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 2: I wonder is when we look at it on paper,

886
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 2: we go, oh, yeah, like I get that, But now

887
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 2: let's do real life.

888
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:40,800
Speaker 4: Okay, so.

889
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 2: It's Luca's team now, yes, but Lebron has to play

890
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 2: on it, even though he's kind of not really into

891
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:58,680
Speaker 2: what's going on emotionally and mentally, right, So that's not

892
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 2: gonna go well, I would guess that's not gonna go well, Like,

893
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:08,120
Speaker 2: what does that look like on a Tuesday in January

894
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 2: in New Orleans?

895
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?

896
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 2: Like, how are you gonna keep Lebron from disengaging?

897
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 4: I guess yeah, but you got it. So the with

898
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 4: that said, given the player Lebron is and has been,

899
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 4: he he's Lebron is one of the greatest players to

900
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 4: ever play. Sure, the thing you can say about the

901
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 4: rest of the greatest players to ever play, including Lebron,

902
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 4: is they're going they're handling their business. They will go

903
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,280
Speaker 4: out Lebron is gonna give you twenty five, six and six.

904
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,959
Speaker 4: He's going like he's not going to go out there

905
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:51,240
Speaker 4: and be disinterested if he's on a basketball court. That's

906
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:57,160
Speaker 4: the professionalism in him, the strive for greatness in him.

907
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 4: It doesn't allow you to do that. He understand what

908
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 4: these last few years mean. Are you going to go

909
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,480
Speaker 4: out there and waste them? Do you see him going

910
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 4: to waste him? Right?

911
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 3: You know?

912
00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 4: When you know when you can look at the kernels

913
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 4: of the saying and it's only a couple of men there,

914
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,600
Speaker 4: when that hourglass is running out, do you want to

915
00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:20,360
Speaker 4: waste time?

916
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 3: You don't, You don't.

917
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 2: But at the same time, I just like you look

918
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:32,440
Speaker 2: at the way they played last year, and everybody understood that.

919
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 2: It was like, ooh, this Luca acquisition is not so

920
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 2: much about right now, it's about later, and that sort

921
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 2: of allowed the team to look like Luca's just getting

922
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 2: his Laker feet underneath him, and Lebron will continue to

923
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 2: drive this bus while he figures that out, and then

924
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 2: it's the end of the year and they lose in

925
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 2: the playoffs and they move on, and I feel like

926
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 2: when they come back, like.

927
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:01,600
Speaker 3: Luca, here's the keys.

928
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,240
Speaker 2: And I don't know when the last time was, if ever,

929
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 2: that Lebron has played basketball without the keys.

930
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,920
Speaker 4: So do you remember what Lebron was trying to do

931
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 4: last year? He was trying to give the keys to

932
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:20,560
Speaker 4: Anthony Davis. He said it himself, like this, this is

933
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:25,400
Speaker 4: your team, like you go. He right, He understands the

934
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:29,960
Speaker 4: wear and tear. The he knows what that is. So

935
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 4: the plan was for Ad to be a morbid You

936
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 4: gotta remember those first the first month of the season.

937
00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 4: Ad was on a tear. That was the plan. Could

938
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 4: he sustain that for an entire year and be healthy. No,

939
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 4: But the plan was for Lebron to take a back

940
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:50,240
Speaker 4: seat and have Ad do the heavy lifting. It didn't

941
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,479
Speaker 4: work out number one, because Ad doesn't have the ball

942
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 4: in his hands like that. That's why they moved Austin

943
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 4: to the point right, so Lebron didn't have to bring

944
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,080
Speaker 4: up the ball, bring the ball up the court, and

945
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 4: do all those things until the fourth quarter where he

946
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 4: can engage. So all of that's already been in the works.

947
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 4: He understands exactly where he is. If if anybody knows

948
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,640
Speaker 4: their body and where they are in their career, is

949
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 4: Lebron James. He pays attention to all.

950
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,960
Speaker 2: Of the That's fair. I just I want the level

951
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 2: of full engagement. Is my question, not my prediction.

952
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 4: My question sounds like you're predicted, So you know you're

953
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 4: I'm hoping. No, you know, all right? All right, he

954
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,040
Speaker 4: not coming to Golden State to play with Steph.

955
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 3: No, he's not coming in. I know he's not coming

956
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:42,480
Speaker 3: to go that.

957
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 4: You would love it, I mean love it.

958
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:50,240
Speaker 3: I do sports radio here, so you love it. Yeah, Yeah,

959
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 3: but they're not gonna.

960
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,040
Speaker 2: They already got a bunch of dudes making too much

961
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 2: money that are too old.

962
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 4: I already got that anymore.

963
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:02,760
Speaker 2: All right, We're live in the Fox Sports Radio studios

964
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,800
Speaker 2: with me from Salama, Mark Willard, and coming up next.

965
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 2: Today was Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Day. There were

966
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:15,920
Speaker 2: wonderful speeches. There was also one thing that repeated itself

967
00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 2: that I find to be one of the most frustrating

968
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,359
Speaker 2: things in all of sports. And you wouldn't normally say

969
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:24,320
Speaker 2: that about Hall of Fame Induction Day. But I'll explain

970
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 2: coming up next on Fox Sports Radio.

971

983
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,200

1018
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:30,959
Speaker 2: Each year, Row and many others inducted into the Hall

1019
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,400
Speaker 2: of Fame today, Billy Wagner and Dave Parker.

1020
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 3: Let's talk about Dave Parker.

1021
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 2: Dave Parker was a he's right in my like I

1022
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,879
Speaker 2: just started collecting baseball cards Wheelhouse.

1023
00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:46,719
Speaker 4: Oh okay, you know what I mean.

1024
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:50,760
Speaker 2: Like I was that age when Dave Parker was doing

1025
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:54,600
Speaker 2: his thing, like nineteen eighty two, and I'm riding my

1026
00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 2: bike over to the drug store to buy baseball cards

1027
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 2: anytime my mom and dad would let me. And Dave

1028
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:03,440
Speaker 2: Parker was one of the players that you were hoping

1029
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 2: you would get in that baseball card pack. And so

1030
00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:12,280
Speaker 2: Dave Parker has always been For as long as I've lived,

1031
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:18,880
Speaker 2: he has been a great baseball player, and no surprise

1032
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:22,319
Speaker 2: to me that he ended up in the Hall of Fame.

1033
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:27,879
Speaker 2: What I'm trying to figure out is what happened over

1034
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:34,560
Speaker 2: the last thirty four years that suddenly made people who

1035
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:37,920
Speaker 2: are in charge of this sort of thing go, yeah,

1036
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 2: Dave Parker should be in the Hall of Fame.

1037
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 3: You know now that he's dead.

1038
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 2: Now, maybe that's unfair because he did not pass away

1039
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 2: that long ago. I think it was only a matter

1040
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 2: of weeks actually, and so maybe he was live long

1041
00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 2: enough to know that he made it. But either way,

1042
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:07,200
Speaker 2: that's one thing, especially in baseball, I feel, I know

1043
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 2: there's a little bit of it an all sports. Why

1044
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:14,200
Speaker 2: are we waiting until people are in their seventies eighties

1045
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 2: gone in many cases to induct people into the Hall

1046
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,920
Speaker 2: of Fame? What happened in those thirty four years that

1047
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 2: made what was obvious to me as a seven.

1048
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:31,200
Speaker 10: Year old in the eighties now reality and in theory,

1049
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 10: prevented Dave from speaking at his own induction.

1050
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:41,440
Speaker 4: You know what, that's a good question, and the NFL

1051
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 4: has some of that as well, a little bit yep.

1052
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:51,080
Speaker 4: And you know it's always for me it's been If

1053
00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:56,760
Speaker 4: great players are great, then there shouldn't be the way.

1054
00:57:56,800 --> 00:58:00,520
Speaker 4: I think what ends up happening is once you don't

1055
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:02,600
Speaker 4: make it a couple of times, you end up behind

1056
00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 4: the eight ball because new players are constantly coming in

1057
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 4: and competing, and so it's a situation where you're like,

1058
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 4: you can literally be just forgotten. You can be forgotten,

1059
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:26,920
Speaker 4: and you find yourself in a situation where once you

1060
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:31,959
Speaker 4: have a log jam of older great players, then who

1061
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 4: knows how long it's going to take for that to

1062
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 4: happen because the newer young players are the younger players

1063
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 4: who are eligible take up all the bandwidth. So you

1064
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:47,840
Speaker 4: can have a stockpile of forty to fifty guys who

1065
00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 4: deserve it but played in yesteryear, and you're gonna get

1066
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,439
Speaker 4: one of them a year. So that thing carries out,

1067
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:56,920
Speaker 4: It just carries out. It just maybe this year, No

1068
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,880
Speaker 4: they did you know Jackson? I played eight against Jackson,

1069
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:05,280
Speaker 4: like you know, he's from my era. So they're not

1070
00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,920
Speaker 4: putting like four or five of those guys in at

1071
00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 4: a time. And so now you they may all deserve

1072
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 4: it at some point, but it's easy to get passed

1073
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 4: over because every year they're new players. Then new players

1074
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:24,440
Speaker 4: become old players. Old players become older players, and older

1075
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 4: players become yesteryear players, and you're scratching your head, like, man,

1076
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:36,800
Speaker 4: what what's happening? Right? You know? So I think it's

1077
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:42,880
Speaker 4: a vicious cycle. I think it just perpetuates itself. And

1078
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 4: why do you change it?

1079
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:50,360
Speaker 2: Well, I think you stop being some damn snooty about it,

1080
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 2: is what I.

1081
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:52,760
Speaker 4: Think, you know what I mean?

1082
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 2: Like, there are so many and every sport's got its

1083
00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 2: own thing, whether it's former players and media members or whatever.

1084
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 2: This thing often starts when someone's not even done playing yet,

1085
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like, the most recent example

1086
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 2: in the NFL that I can think of is someone

1087
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:16,320
Speaker 2: like Philip Rivers. And there was this Eli Manning thing

1088
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 2: for a little while where it was like, yeah, but

1089
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 2: like the numbers aren't really there, but two super Bowls,

1090
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,600
Speaker 2: so it's like, okay, that's inevitable. Well, Philip Rivers is

1091
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 2: the opposite. You have no super Bowls, but the numbers

1092
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:32,360
Speaker 2: are all clearly there, and I would argue that right.

1093
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 2: Like cases like that, I sort of feel like I

1094
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:41,880
Speaker 2: know where this is going, so just go stop with

1095
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 2: this process of like when someone is in their forties,

1096
01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:50,959
Speaker 2: we get the debate out of it, and so all right,

1097
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,320
Speaker 2: we're gonna hold this off. This person hasn't done this,

1098
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,120
Speaker 2: and then they haven't done that, and then twenty five

1099
01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:01,640
Speaker 2: years go by and we soften hell guy, hey, old guy,

1100
01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:05,360
Speaker 2: seventy two years okay, and then we start opening up

1101
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,680
Speaker 2: to it, and then it's like, all right, eventually they're

1102
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 2: gonna get in by some sort of veterans committee or whatever,

1103
01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:14,600
Speaker 2: and they may or may not be with us anymore

1104
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:16,880
Speaker 2: by the time that happens. Number one and number two,

1105
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:20,360
Speaker 2: I would ask the sports to get selfish about it.

1106
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:24,440
Speaker 3: What audience does baseball want so badly?

1107
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 4: Right?

1108
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:28,400
Speaker 2: Yes, all right, So now you want that audience and

1109
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 2: you're giving them on a Sunday afternoon Dave Parker.

1110
01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:34,479
Speaker 3: They don't know who that is.

1111
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 2: So stop electing people when they're eighty because a they

1112
01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:41,640
Speaker 2: may not be.

1113
01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 3: With us anymore. And be the audience you want doesn't

1114
01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,520
Speaker 3: even know who that is. They never saw him.

1115
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:52,120
Speaker 2: So give the audience that person when that person is fifty,

1116
01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,840
Speaker 2: because then the audience that you want to dial into

1117
01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,240
Speaker 2: the event knows who you're talking about and watched him play.

1118
01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,040
Speaker 4: It's a good point that it's a really good point

1119
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:05,439
Speaker 4: because I, you know, I'm not a huge baseball fan,

1120
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:08,440
Speaker 4: so I didn't even know who Dave Parker was. But

1121
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 4: I do know who Steve Disaeger is. Yes you do.

1122
01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 4: Hall of Famer yep, Steve de Seger. Anytime, Mary, Steve

1123
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:18,240
Speaker 4: stevee Seger, there we go.

1124
01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 9: Steve de Sager, the name that I think of your discussion.

1125
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 9: Marcus the Buck O'Neill, who was well known as one

1126
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:30,320
Speaker 9: of the old Negro League players, was in the Baseball

1127
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:34,360
Speaker 9: documentary on PBS That Was So Great years ago. Fifteen

1128
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:37,720
Speaker 9: years after he passed an Early Days committee they called

1129
01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:40,600
Speaker 9: it elected him to the Hall of Fame, but again

1130
01:02:40,680 --> 01:02:43,120
Speaker 9: he was not around. Dave Parker found out he got

1131
01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 9: in by committee in December, and then, as you mentioned,

1132
01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 9: passed away recently. I think really the venom, if there's

1133
01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:54,640
Speaker 9: venom to be had, should be directed at the Baseball Writers,

1134
01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:59,360
Speaker 9: who I looked it up, usually gave Dave Parker, for example,

1135
01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:02,439
Speaker 9: only about fifteen percent of the vote when you need

1136
01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,840
Speaker 9: seventy five percent to get in. So he's on their

1137
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:08,200
Speaker 9: ballot year after year for fifteen years through twenty eleven,

1138
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:12,080
Speaker 9: not in, and then a Veterans committee in twenty twenty

1139
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 9: not in. And then this past December there's something called

1140
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:19,440
Speaker 9: the Classic Baseball Era Committee for guys who were playing

1141
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 9: before nineteen eighty.

1142
01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:21,840
Speaker 4: He got in.

1143
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 9: He got fourteen votes out of sixteen. So Dave Parker

1144
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 9: is now a Hall of Famer, and Dick Allen got

1145
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 9: thirteen votes out of sixteen and he's in. And so

1146
01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 9: this is a thing that's completely separate from the Baseball Writers,

1147
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 9: that a committee can put people in who they feel

1148
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 9: were passed overep earlier. So the Contemporary Era committee for

1149
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:45,680
Speaker 9: players is this December's vote and then the contemporary era

1150
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:49,240
Speaker 9: for managers and execs and umpires is the next December,

1151
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 9: and then we'll rotate back to the classic here. So

1152
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:56,440
Speaker 9: this is a way they feel of correcting ills. But

1153
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:58,840
Speaker 9: you're right, this is what it's come to, because if

1154
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 9: someone is on the ballot ten to fifteen years and

1155
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:06,880
Speaker 9: doesn't get in, well, of course it's going to result

1156
01:04:06,920 --> 01:04:08,720
Speaker 9: in what exactly what you're talking there?

1157
01:04:08,720 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 4: You go.

1158
01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:12,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, And by the way, our perspective in morality, as

1159
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 2: always is the case, it evolves through the years. And

1160
01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:18,439
Speaker 2: so like I'll ask this right now, I'll ask this

1161
01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five.

1162
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:21,200
Speaker 4: You're all gonna wait.

1163
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 2: For Alex Rodriguez and Barry Bonds to die, right, Is

1164
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 2: that what we're gonna do before you get over your morality?

1165
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:28,919
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1166
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,560
Speaker 9: I think it's a little tougher because he was actually

1167
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 9: suspended by Baseball.

1168
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:36,320
Speaker 2: Correct correct, no doubt, Roger Clemens, whatever names you want

1169
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,520
Speaker 2: to throw out there, are you gonna wait until they

1170
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 2: die before everybody softens up and realizes that those were

1171
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 2: three of the best players of their era by far.

1172
01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:49,800
Speaker 9: So maybe Bond's head will go on a plaque, but

1173
01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,240
Speaker 9: just with an increased hat size.

1174
01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,720
Speaker 4: Very good the game very good, knew what you did.

1175
01:04:56,960 --> 01:05:00,480
Speaker 2: That's how you lighten the load, and that's what Steve

1176
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:02,439
Speaker 2: de Seger is also going to go into the Hall

1177
01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 2: of Fame someday.

1178
01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 4: Someday.

1179
01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,960
Speaker 9: San Francisco Giants oddly are hosting the Sunday Night ball

1180
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:10,440
Speaker 9: game right now, and the Mets, who won six in

1181
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 9: a row of taken the lead at San Francisco. It's

1182
01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:14,560
Speaker 9: four to three in the top of the eighth Juan

1183
01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 9: Soto with the go ahead solo homer in the seventh inning.

1184
01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:19,920
Speaker 9: The Mets of the first place team in the NL East.

1185
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 9: They had a half game lead over the Phils, who

1186
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:24,720
Speaker 9: lost a day at New York against the Yankees four

1187
01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 9: to three. Texas won at six straight game eight one

1188
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:32,000
Speaker 9: over Atlanta. The Padres were nine two winners at Saint Louis,

1189
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,680
Speaker 9: and the Padres are catching up on the Dodgers. They

1190
01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:37,320
Speaker 9: were down nine games in the standings in early July.

1191
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 9: They're only back four games right now because the Dodgers

1192
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,960
Speaker 9: lost again at Boston today four to three. Come on Man,

Speaker 9: League game played in the state of Tennessee. Fox gave

1217
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 9: a little preview of what it looks like last night.

1218
01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:15,520
Speaker 9: They have completed a regulation Major League Baseball field on

1219
01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 9: the infield of this huge NASCAR track. The two teams

1220
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:24,240
Speaker 9: will be wearing NASCAR themed uniforms, not the driver's uniforms,

1221
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 9: but the style of the printed numbers, the way they

1222
01:07:27,320 --> 01:07:30,760
Speaker 9: had the hats and the helmets this Saturday, and Tim

1223

Speaker 9: McGraw is going to be holding a pregame concert there.

1224
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:38,120
Speaker 9: Do you remember when they had the Field of Dreams thing, for.

1225
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 4: Example in Ioland Now that was amazing. That was amazing.

1226
01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:43,360
Speaker 4: Every other hit was a homer. That was fun.

1227
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 9: Just keep doing that stadium in Alabama last year. It's

1228
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:49,880
Speaker 9: a different thing for different summers. I've been mentioning Tim McGraw,

1229
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 9: not only because we're in the South and country, musing

1230
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 9: and all that he is the son of reliever Tug McGraw,

1231
01:07:55,360 --> 01:07:58,240
Speaker 9: who died of cancer in Tennessee in two thousand and four.

1232

Speaker 9: Tug McGraw pitched in the World Series for the Mets

1233
01:08:00,520 --> 01:08:03,760
Speaker 9: in seventy three for the Phillies in nineteen eighty. Anyway

1234
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,920
Speaker 9: Speedway Classic coming up Saturday night, back to you all right.

1235
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 2: Well, I thought I'm glad you brought this up, Steve,

1236
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:11,439
Speaker 2: because with what you and I from have been talking

1237
01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 2: about the last two weeks, if anything was going to

1238
01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:18,599
Speaker 2: turn you into a rabbit baseball fan, I would now

1239
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 2: think it would be having a baseball game at an

1240
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:25,360
Speaker 2: auto racing field, seeing as you are now America's number

1241
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 2: one auto racing officionado.

1242
01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:33,720
Speaker 4: Hey man, if it was on an F one track, right.

1243
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:33,839
Speaker 9: That would be difficult, right.

1244
01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,879
Speaker 3: It would be that would be difficult because for those.

1245
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 9: Who don't know way to third base, right, Like.

1246
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:42,960
Speaker 2: I mean, everything would have to be a bunt basically,

1247
01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:49,200
Speaker 2: because and I'm gathering it from I bet one of

1248
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:53,559
Speaker 2: the things that you probably love about F one, I

1249
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 2: think everybody loves about F one, like.

1250
01:08:57,640 --> 01:09:00,680
Speaker 3: It's so exotic, yeah, right, like the.

1251
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 2: Way they sort of build up to these locales man,

1252
01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:06,759
Speaker 2: and the fact that these tracks are often just built

1253
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:11,760
Speaker 2: out of the city streets within this exotic locale. Very

1254
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:14,559
Speaker 2: few of them are in big cities. They're all and like, oh,

1255
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 2: this is tucked into the hills in the middle of

1256
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 2: nowhere in France or whatever. So yeah, it might be

1257
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:22,800

Speaker 2: eighty year old from watching conn stuck an eighty two

1277
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:27,559

1279
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 2: how on earth do we figure this out?

1280
01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:37,559
Speaker 4: Oh? Wow, it's it's aggressive.

1281
01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:41,160
Speaker 9: So one of the owners said, just this weekend, we

1282
01:10:41,240 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 9: assume that down the road, one of every team's game

1283
01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,000
Speaker 9: is going to be an international game.

1284
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:50,800
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that doesn't that doesn't even feel that far off.

1285
01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:52,599
Speaker 2: How many are there this year?

1286
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:56,559
Speaker 9: I think we're up to eight, good lord, eight. I

1287
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:00,000
Speaker 9: think the Vikings are playing back to back weekends in Europe,

1288
01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:02,759
Speaker 9: different countries. They're just staying there in between.

1289
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:05,840
Speaker 2: Well, they're probably just thrilled because anywhere is not as

1290
01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:06,679
Speaker 2: cold as they're.

1291
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:11,480
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, it's good, My goodness.

1292
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,040
Speaker 2: I love that area. The people are very, very nice.

1293
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 2: But I went there for a Super Bowl one time,

1294
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:17,799
Speaker 2: and I'm like, there are people.

1295
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:21,559
Speaker 4: I don't know why they put one. They had the stadium,

1296
01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,840
Speaker 4: but goodness, I don't know why they put buildings there alone.

1297
01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:33,599
Speaker 4: They put homes there. It was frigid. Frigid. Do you walk.

1298
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:35,800
Speaker 3: Across the street and you're like, that's it for me today.

01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 2: thankful wherever you are tonight, out in the East, in

01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:49,360
Speaker 2: the West, anywhere in between, completely out of the country,

1323
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,960
Speaker 2: which is where I woke up yesterday morning. Whatever it is,

1324
01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:57,040
Speaker 2: thank you so much for doing it with us. Hey,

1325
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 2: you and I have had so many cool talks about

1326
01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 2: why receivers and the wide receiver market. I really wanted

1327
01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:07,360
Speaker 2: to get your reaction to this today. From a strategic standpoint,

1328
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:10,920
Speaker 2: we know Terry McLaurin of the Washington Commanders is not happy,

1329
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:15,759
Speaker 2: and he let it be known by skipping the start

1330
01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 2: of camp.

1331
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:19,519
Speaker 3: But no new deal has been reached.

1332
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:26,000
Speaker 2: And then he just showed up today and so now

1333
01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:29,000
Speaker 2: he is going to be a part of camp and

1334
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,080
Speaker 2: practice without a new deal. I don't know where it

1335
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:35,000
Speaker 2: goes next. I don't know if he actually suits up

1336
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 2: for games. I don't know if he walks back out again.

1337
01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:39,560
Speaker 2: What do you make of the strategy?

1338
01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:42,599
Speaker 4: Well, I knew he I mean, it costs too much

1339
01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:49,080
Speaker 4: to miss a day of training camp, mandatory day. It's

1340
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:53,840
Speaker 4: tens of thousands of dollars a day, and so you've

1341
01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:58,439
Speaker 4: got to make a business decision. You're under contract, whether

1342
01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 4: you're happy or not. You to make a decision on

1343
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 4: am I going to make money this year or give

1344
01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:11,040
Speaker 4: money back? And normally if your high priority are one

1345
01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:20,240
Speaker 4: of those guys, teams will overlook the actual fine. But

1346
01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:21,040
Speaker 4: they don't have to.

1347
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:24,120
Speaker 2: Well I think actually the new CBA made it so

1348
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:26,000
Speaker 2: that they're not even allowed to do that anymore.

1349
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:29,000
Speaker 4: So, yeah, you got to make a business decision. Yeah

1350
01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:31,400
Speaker 4: you want to come in training camp late and you

1351
01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 4: owe four hundred thousand dollars on a seven million dollar

1352
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:41,679
Speaker 4: deal and you still don't get a deal done. Yeah,

1353
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:42,840
Speaker 4: that's not what you want, man.

1354
01:14:43,040 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 3: Okay, So so where does where does this go?

1355
01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:48,120
Speaker 2: Where's like, I mean, Terry's just going to be like, okay,

1356
01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,320
Speaker 2: I'm just going to go play and just go put

1357
01:14:50,320 --> 01:14:51,759
Speaker 2: the body on the line with no.

1358
01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 4: Just go to work. I mean, what are the other options?

1359
01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:58,360
Speaker 2: Well, we watched you know, players do this every year.

1360
01:14:58,600 --> 01:14:59,960
Speaker 2: You know Ceedee Lamb.

1361
01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:03,920
Speaker 4: Did not show out CD Lamb. Well no, but he's

1362
01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 4: put up those type of numbers. One of the top

1363
01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:07,639
Speaker 4: three receivers in the league.

1364
01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:11,040
Speaker 2: Okay, So yeah, if CD Lauren is not no, but

1365
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,400
Speaker 2: if CD is an A, then Terry is a BB plus.

1366
01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:16,599
Speaker 2: He's not one of the top five, but he's one

1367
01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:17,840
Speaker 2: of the top twenty.

1368
01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:20,240
Speaker 4: Has he had over a thousand yards yet? Terry.

1369
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:22,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not gonna pull up his numbers. But Mike,

1370
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:25,120
Speaker 2: my initial inclination.

1371
01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:26,559
Speaker 4: Is, yes, I know he didn't last year.

1372
01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:33,719
Speaker 2: I'm gonna need a minute to find this find this stuff,

1373
01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:41,040
Speaker 2: Terry McLaurin, And let's take a look at career stats.

1374
01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 2: He has gone over one thousand yards five times, all right,

1375
01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:47,400
Speaker 2: and actually he did last year.

1376
01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:49,599
Speaker 4: What did he have last year? On ninety six?

1377
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:54,160
Speaker 2: Now he's never gone over twelve hundred, but his rookie

1378
01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:56,240
Speaker 2: year he went for nine to nineteen, and he's gone

1379
01:15:56,280 --> 01:15:58,320
Speaker 2: over one thousand and five straight years since.

1380
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:00,200
Speaker 3: It's a hell of a player is.

1381
01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:00,960
Speaker 4: The hell of a player?

1382
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:05,280
Speaker 3: And now you know you've gotta you've got your QB.

1383
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:10,320
Speaker 2: You nailed that, so like I think that, I mean,

1384
01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:12,800
Speaker 2: that makes weaponry even more important, doesn't it?

1385
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:17,960
Speaker 4: Yeah? It does. Now the old QB can come to

1386
01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:25,559
Speaker 4: his his aid, Yes he could. But if you were

1387
01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:28,720
Speaker 4: serious about it, then you just stay at home. It's

1388
01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:32,160
Speaker 4: hard to do both. It's hard to be serious and

1389
01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:36,160
Speaker 4: give in at the same time. Right you're in the marriage,

1390
01:16:36,320 --> 01:16:42,840
Speaker 4: there will be an argument you can't be right. Well,

1391
01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:45,920
Speaker 4: I'll say this marriage is the only place where you

1392
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:53,760
Speaker 4: can be right and apologize. Yeah, I get it. That's

1393
01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:56,240
Speaker 4: the only place it works. It doesn't work anywhere else.

1394
01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:59,720
Speaker 4: So you can't be right in terms of holding out

1395
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:02,799
Speaker 4: and then come and show up to go to work

1396
01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:05,880
Speaker 4: after you said you weren't. Can't be right and apologize.

1397
01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:08,760
Speaker 4: The only way you can do that is if you're

1398
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:15,320
Speaker 4: a man in a marriage. I say that fair enough,

1399
01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:18,400
Speaker 4: them bes the breaks, and you can you could say

1400
01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:21,120
Speaker 4: what you want to say, you can disagree, do all

1401
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:24,080
Speaker 4: of that that you want. But hey, man been in

1402
01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 4: this thing twenty too strong. It's just like that.

1403
01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:32,640
Speaker 3: It's like that. Terry's not on a rookie deal. You know,

1404
01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 3: Terry he.

1405
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:35,120
Speaker 4: Got a bumpo.

1406
01:17:36,560 --> 01:17:38,320
Speaker 3: Is he is finishing up what.

1407
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:42,000
Speaker 4: Was an extension? Right? Yeah? Your extension? Right?

1408
01:17:42,040 --> 01:17:45,000
Speaker 2: But the full deal worked out to be like a

1409
01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:47,240
Speaker 2: three year, sixty eight million dollar deal.

1410
01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:49,800
Speaker 3: So you've been averaging just under twenty three million a year.

1411
01:17:49,880 --> 01:17:51,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got some money.

1412
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:53,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's got he's got money in the bank.

1413
01:17:53,560 --> 01:17:55,640
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. You know who I was thinking about? Who's that?

1414
01:17:55,800 --> 01:18:01,360
Speaker 4: I was thinking about? Jenny's Oh jan Jenny, Yeah, yeah, Jenny, Yeah.

1415
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:02,280
Speaker 3: Who also showed up.

1416
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,720
Speaker 4: He had to show up. Now, that's very different. He

1417
01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:05,360
Speaker 4: had to show up.

1418
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:07,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, he left practice early with a low injury today too.

1419
01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:12,599
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, but you you'll be surprised on how many

1420
01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:15,840
Speaker 4: practices you missed because of an injury. Like even uh

1421
01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:21,599
Speaker 4: uh mcclariny is showing up and on on pub right

1422
01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,960
Speaker 4: physically unable to perform, right yeah, because what you don't

1423
01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:28,839
Speaker 4: want to do out there is go get go perform,

1424
01:18:29,360 --> 01:18:32,960
Speaker 4: right yeah, So you're gonna take your time. The days

1425
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:36,559
Speaker 4: of Walter Jones, remember he would be franchise tagged and

1426
01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,679
Speaker 4: he would just show up the week before opening week.

1427
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:42,639
Speaker 3: Yep. And he did it twice and at worked both times.

1428
01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 4: Both times he was like, y'all go ahead, man, I'm

1429
01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:50,519
Speaker 4: having an extended summer. And literally the Monday root of

1430
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:52,320
Speaker 4: game week he showed.

1431
01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:54,599
Speaker 3: Up well in a way.

1432
01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:57,080
Speaker 2: And I don't know how much this has to do

1433
01:18:57,240 --> 01:18:59,120
Speaker 2: with like when this got negotiated in.

1434
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:03,440
Speaker 3: The CBA, there's there's really only one sport.

1435
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:09,920
Speaker 2: Out there that does not allow load management into the process.

1436
01:19:10,760 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 2: Now it's basically an NBA term, but by the same token,

1437
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:18,200
Speaker 2: you know, Baseball has it already baked in. You don't

1438
01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:20,040
Speaker 2: really have a lot of people playing one hundred and

1439
01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:25,479
Speaker 2: sixty two games the NFL, though, the urgency of each game,

1440
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:29,080
Speaker 2: you're never going to have that. And now they went

1441
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 2: out and prevented you from even doing it during camp

1442
01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:35,240
Speaker 2: because that did happen, but not anymore.

1443
01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:38,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had in my contract. I didn't. I didn't

1444
01:19:39,600 --> 01:19:43,120
Speaker 4: do two a days after my eighth year. I was

1445
01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:46,599
Speaker 4: gonna say, which contract after my eighth year? I was like, yeah,

1446
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:47,240
Speaker 4: I'm doing it.

1447
01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well Terry, Terry's just thirty. Yeah, so you know,

1448
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:58,479
Speaker 2: he's still got a ways, still got a ways. As

1449
01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:01,320
Speaker 2: we mentioned, not the only thing thing going on in

1450
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:05,599
Speaker 2: the NFC East, because an announcement in New York and

1451
01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:09,400
Speaker 2: the lack of one in Dallas has people talking that's next.

1452
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:12,759
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio radio.

1453
01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:16,599
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not gonna say that I'm surprised because

1454
01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:19,680
Speaker 2: I've been known for a long time that you know,

1455
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 2: you and I we we get along, and so when

1456
01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:26,360
Speaker 2: you suggest something to me, I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna

1457
01:20:26,400 --> 01:20:26,960
Speaker 2: check that out.

1458
01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:29,280
Speaker 3: And I'm not surprised that you were right.

1459
01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:33,760
Speaker 2: But my mind is having a hard time deviating from it.

1460
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:35,040
Speaker 3: And here's why.

1461
01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:38,679
Speaker 2: Because the baseball trade deadline is here, it is coming

1462
01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 2: up in just a matter of days. We're broadcasting live

1463
01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 2: from the Fox Sports Radio studios, and as you heard,

1464
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,200
Speaker 2: it's Mark Willard and E from salam And if you

1465
01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:48,559
Speaker 2: missed the start of the show or last week or whatever,

1466
01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:52,200
Speaker 2: both of us have been an e for for my sake,

1467
01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:55,400
Speaker 2: it's completely your fault, but thank you for that. We've

1468
01:20:55,400 --> 01:21:00,040
Speaker 2: been completely sucked in by this F one push. It

1469
01:21:00,160 --> 01:21:04,040
Speaker 2: is started by the Brad Pitt movie, but the F

1470
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:06,920
Speaker 2: one Drive to Survive series that's been going for seven years.

1471
01:21:07,560 --> 01:21:09,800
Speaker 2: He found it. Now because of him, I've found it

1472
01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:11,960
Speaker 2: and we're both into it. But I brought up a

1473
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:15,759
Speaker 2: very specific question to you to start the show tonight,

1474
01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:20,599
Speaker 2: inspired by watching the first season of that show, and

1475
01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:23,240
Speaker 2: I said, I've never seen in any other sport that

1476
01:21:23,280 --> 01:21:27,679
Speaker 2: I've watched where free agency essentially happens in the middle

1477
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:33,160
Speaker 2: of the year. And so drivers will announce that they're switching,

1478
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:37,000
Speaker 2: or teams will announce that they're cutting their driver, and

1479
01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 2: that'll all happen right there in the middle of the season,

1480
01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 2: and then those people who got cut or are leaving

1481
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,800
Speaker 2: have to go right back to performing for each other

1482
01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:51,400
Speaker 2: literally the next day. So the trade deadline is here,

1483
01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:56,320
Speaker 2: we're used to that, We're used to baseball trades are

1484
01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:59,800
Speaker 2: going to happen this week. What if after the trade

1485
01:21:59,920 --> 01:22:05,480
Speaker 2: was announced, they just kept playing for that team.

1486
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:10,640
Speaker 4: So I can give you, I can give you like

1487
01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:18,479
Speaker 4: kind of that that did happen. I'm all ears. Look

1488
01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:24,880
Speaker 4: at the Mike Williams Dalton connect trade. Mm hmm. It's

1489
01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:28,160
Speaker 4: a good example, right, good example. I mean he still

1490
01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:33,680
Speaker 4: hasn't recovered from that Dalton connect. I'm talking about, like

1491
01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:40,040
Speaker 4: he was traded away Charlotte for their center and he

1492
01:22:40,080 --> 01:22:43,799
Speaker 4: didn't pass the physical and so the trade was rescinded

1493
01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 4: and he had to come back to work and like

1494
01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:52,599
Speaker 4: the next like two days later, and just let it go.

1495
01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 4: I mean he was in, he was gone, He's up

1496
01:22:57,200 --> 01:23:01,080
Speaker 4: and gone, and then he had to come back and

1497
01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:08,960
Speaker 4: just go back to work. And psychologically, it can do

1498
01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:13,479
Speaker 4: a number on you because you're thinking, well, they don't

1499
01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:19,040
Speaker 4: want me anyway. Mm hmm, So what's the point the

1500
01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:22,400
Speaker 4: next time they can trade me, they'll trade me.

1501
01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:25,640
Speaker 2: Well, you're bringing up a much more modern example, but

1502
01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 2: I know you'll remember this.

1503
01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:28,800
Speaker 3: This very much happened to lamar Odom.

1504
01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:29,639
Speaker 4: Yes it did.

1505
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:31,120
Speaker 3: It happened to lamar Odom.

1506
01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:35,439
Speaker 2: Who was a part of the air quotes Chris Paul Trade.

1507
01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:39,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he.

1508
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:41,400
Speaker 4: Could not recover, could not recover.

1509
01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:44,320
Speaker 2: It, could not recover, and and and the Lakers had

1510
01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:45,920
Speaker 2: to move on, and he had to move on. In

1511
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:50,360
Speaker 2: his career just kind of spun into, you know whatever,

1512
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:53,880
Speaker 2: something nondescript after that, and and the rest of the way,

1513
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:56,479
Speaker 2: And Lamar was a bit, as we know of a

1514
01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:59,479
Speaker 2: It was a tortured soul for a lot of actually

1515
01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:03,240
Speaker 2: very understandable reasons. Lamar is a super well liked guy,

1516
01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:06,240
Speaker 2: but been through a hell of a lot in his life,

1517
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:10,280
Speaker 2: and that was not something at that time in his

1518
01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:14,400
Speaker 2: life that he could stomach. And so that's why that

1519
01:24:14,680 --> 01:24:17,720
Speaker 2: aspect of what I'm learning in F one is so

1520
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:20,040
Speaker 2: fascinating to me, because I don't even.

1521
01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:24,720
Speaker 3: Understand how on earth. I don't understand how anyone can

1522
01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:26,400
Speaker 3: do it like.

1523
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:32,519
Speaker 2: Wild wild that, like you know, imagine, because this is

1524
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:36,880
Speaker 2: a small knit sort of a thing. There's twenty drivers,

1525
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:41,160
Speaker 2: there's ten companies or teams if you will, and each

1526
01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:44,719
Speaker 2: of them, as far as key figures, within that room,

1527
01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:50,040
Speaker 2: there are very few people. And imagine if everybody in

1528
01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:54,000
Speaker 2: that room is so at odds that they're like we're

1529
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:58,639
Speaker 2: breaking up, but we're gonna go play ten more times together.

1530
01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:04,040
Speaker 4: Yes, getting a divorce and living in the same house forever.

1531
01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:08,880
Speaker 2: That one hit home a little bit. Yeah, I've kind

1532
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:15,479
Speaker 2: of been there. Actually it's hell. It is hell. And

1533
01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:19,280
Speaker 2: and so that's that's why of all the things, of

1534
01:25:19,439 --> 01:25:23,680
Speaker 2: all the things that that I've watched there, that's the

1535
01:25:23,720 --> 01:25:27,040
Speaker 2: one that sort of sticks out to me the most.

1536
01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:29,599
Speaker 2: And I like, do you ever think, do you ever

1537
01:25:29,720 --> 01:25:34,760
Speaker 2: think that we'll see that in other sports? Because I

1538
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:38,080
Speaker 2: so that, well, we do here. Here's why I ask.

1539
01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:43,960
Speaker 2: We do have certain sports where the off season has

1540
01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:46,200
Speaker 2: kind of become bigger than the regular season.

1541
01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:48,559
Speaker 3: It's not there in.

1542
01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:51,120
Speaker 2: The NFL, even though the NFL does such what I

1543
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:54,839
Speaker 2: think a wonderful job of traveling through its off season

1544
01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:57,760
Speaker 2: and staying relevant. But how many years in a row

1545
01:25:57,800 --> 01:26:01,480
Speaker 2: now have we said, like, people in the NBA.

1546
01:26:01,439 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 3: Look forward to July fourth more than they do June.

1547
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,720
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, the ratings this year, and I

1548
01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:12,160
Speaker 2: get it, you had small markets and whatnot, but like

1549
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:17,599
Speaker 2: people were not locked in on what was quite frankly

1550
01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:22,680
Speaker 2: an amazing NBA finals, But they were not locked in, right,

1551
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:24,800
Speaker 2: did not have the star power that it that it

1552
01:26:24,960 --> 01:26:33,040
Speaker 2: usually does, but free agency. If we were to get

1553
01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:40,400
Speaker 2: breaking news right now that Giannis has requested a trade, Dude,

1554
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:44,519
Speaker 2: that would go crazy every show. It would take over

1555
01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:51,160
Speaker 2: the whole week, the whole month. So I wonder to

1556
01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:54,200
Speaker 2: what level. I mean again, I'm thinking far off into

1557
01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:55,880
Speaker 2: the future.

1558
01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:56,800
Speaker 4: You know this.

1559
01:26:57,000 --> 01:26:59,760
Speaker 2: We're dealing with a young fan that is, it is

1560
01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:05,320
Speaker 2: much harder to get their attention and social media drives

1561
01:27:05,360 --> 01:27:10,880
Speaker 2: so many buses now. So just spitballing and thinking out loud,

1562
01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:13,640
Speaker 2: because dude, it's very dramatic.

1563
01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:18,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's why the Luca trade really captivated

1564
01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:22,400
Speaker 4: a lot of people, and a lot of eyes were

1565
01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:28,360
Speaker 4: focused on the NBA at a time where people were

1566
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:32,240
Speaker 4: like eh and so you know, posed to waiting for

1567
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:36,120
Speaker 4: the playoffs to start. People were tuned in and locked in.

1568
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:39,439
Speaker 4: It was a big deal. That was a huge deal.

1569
01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:46,320
Speaker 4: Just took over the media completely, that was during what

1570
01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:52,000
Speaker 4: was happening that was going into the Super Bowl. Yes, completely,

1571
01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:56,400
Speaker 4: just moved it out the way, moved it out the way.

1572
01:27:56,600 --> 01:28:00,320
Speaker 4: Very few things can do that, very few things can

1573
01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:00,760
Speaker 4: do that too.

1574
01:28:02,120 --> 01:28:06,360
Speaker 2: True, Although Week two going into the Super Bowl, Week

1575
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 2: one is kind of boring because it's the first weekend

1576
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:17,440
Speaker 2: that you don't have football for months, and so it's depressing.

1577
01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:21,760
Speaker 2: But then week two, the actual game week, there's some

1578
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:25,920
Speaker 2: fun in there, but it gets very tiring. You run

1579
01:28:25,960 --> 01:28:29,640
Speaker 2: out of stories, and especially when you are dealing with

1580
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:33,760
Speaker 2: a dynastic type of a team and the characters get

1581
01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:37,200
Speaker 2: to be known so well. Mahomes is very much moving

1582
01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:40,439
Speaker 2: into Brady territory where people are like.

1583
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:47,120
Speaker 3: Okay, like what what what do you want to say

1584
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:50,639
Speaker 3: to me? Now? I don't want to hear from you anymore.

1585
01:28:51,120 --> 01:28:54,320
Speaker 3: Play the game. That's fine, you're great, we know it.

1586
01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:55,160
Speaker 3: What are we going to do?

1587
01:28:55,240 --> 01:28:58,800
Speaker 2: What kind of feature are we doing on Patrick Mahomes?

1588
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:05,439
Speaker 3: That some but he wants to see right now. So yeah,

1589
01:29:05,479 --> 01:29:06,240
Speaker 3: it was perfect.

1590
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:10,559
Speaker 2: It was perfect, and it grabbed unbelievable headlines and it

1591
01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 2: all happened in the middle of the year and you

1592
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,800
Speaker 2: didn't see it coming. And so it's not the same

1593
01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:21,320
Speaker 2: as what I'm talking about with the F one comp

1594
01:29:21,880 --> 01:29:24,479
Speaker 2: but it is all of the same things, except for

1595
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:26,800
Speaker 2: the part about and you have to keep playing for

1596
01:29:26,840 --> 01:29:30,639
Speaker 2: the Mavericks. That'd be the only that'd be The only

1597
01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:33,880
Speaker 2: difference is you would have to imagine the Luca trade.

1598
01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:36,760
Speaker 2: But now for another month. You have to play for

1599
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:40,320
Speaker 2: the Mavericks, and then you get to go to the Lakers.

1600
01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:46,559
Speaker 4: No shot, no shot like and and even so much soul.

1601
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:51,200
Speaker 4: When a driver does decide to leave, you know, say

1602
01:29:51,200 --> 01:29:55,120
Speaker 4: a driver leaves from McLaren and goes to Ferrari. The

1603
01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:58,000
Speaker 4: guy at Ferrari knows, oh, I don't have a seat

1604
01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:02,080
Speaker 4: next year, correct, And when they are talking about the seat,

1605
01:30:02,479 --> 01:30:06,200
Speaker 4: there is only twenty available, right, and the seat means

1606
01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:10,040
Speaker 4: a job, a job, being a driver seat in the car.

1607
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:11,920
Speaker 3: You have an amazing no job.

1608
01:30:12,040 --> 01:30:18,479
Speaker 4: If you're being replaced and you haven't been offered another job,

1609
01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:22,240
Speaker 4: then you can just be at home. It's only twenty

1610
01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:26,200
Speaker 4: it's only twenty seats now each and you don't know

1611
01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:33,400
Speaker 4: this yet, but each team has like a backup driver. Sure, sure, sure, shark,

1612
01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:39,599
Speaker 4: but that's not a seat, and you can be out

1613
01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:42,519
Speaker 4: of f one just like that. And I think the

1614
01:30:42,520 --> 01:30:46,479
Speaker 4: most compelling part of it is you get to see

1615
01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:48,720
Speaker 4: the human aspect of it. You get to live with

1616
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:51,719
Speaker 4: these guys and understand their stories, and then you're pulling

1617
01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:55,160
Speaker 4: for them and then it's like, oh snap, it's not

1618
01:30:55,240 --> 01:30:57,439
Speaker 4: you want them to win the races. But it's like Oh,

1619
01:30:58,240 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 4: they can't win the race, and it's like, is it

1620
01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:04,720
Speaker 4: the car? The car becomes such a huge part of

1621
01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:09,280
Speaker 4: it because all cars aren't created equal. Oh hell no,

1622
01:31:10,800 --> 01:31:13,400
Speaker 4: all courts and you will hear hear hear them starts saying,

1623
01:31:13,720 --> 01:31:17,920
Speaker 4: if I could just get in a car that can compete, Like,

1624
01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:20,000
Speaker 4: if I could just get in a car that can compete.

1625
01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:24,200
Speaker 2: No, it's a it's a classic. It's a classic blame game.

1626
01:31:24,880 --> 01:31:28,439
Speaker 2: If something's not going well, those who are mechanics might

1627
01:31:28,479 --> 01:31:30,479
Speaker 2: think it's the driver. The driver might think it's the

1628
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:35,519
Speaker 2: mechanics or the engineers or whatever, or the financial.

1629
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:38,240
Speaker 4: Backing, all of it, all of it.

1630
01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:41,920
Speaker 2: You know, there's there's Yankees Dodgers, and then there's Pirates

1631
01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:48,799
Speaker 2: and and and and Rays all in there. The difference

1632
01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:51,400
Speaker 2: is is on some level, the pirates and Rays, unlike

1633
01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:56,040
Speaker 2: in baseball, they're actually trying to win, right, They're actually

1634
01:31:56,040 --> 01:31:56,400
Speaker 2: trying to.

1635
01:31:56,400 --> 01:31:59,040
Speaker 4: Do They're really trying to get They're trying, they're trying,

1636
01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:03,000
Speaker 4: like hell, and it TI is an uphill battle, man,

1637
01:32:03,080 --> 01:32:03,880
Speaker 4: it is tough.

1638
01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:08,679
Speaker 2: So I yeah, I just I wonder if that kind

1639
01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:13,439
Speaker 2: of you know, boy, you're gonna you're gonna need more

1640
01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:20,040
Speaker 2: drama at some point to keep bringing in the fans.

1641
01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:23,639
Speaker 2: It's kind of a dynamic that's used a lot in

1642
01:32:24,040 --> 01:32:26,760
Speaker 2: sequels for films. I'm sure you know this, Like if

1643
01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:31,720
Speaker 2: you go back through, for instance, the Rambo franchise or

1644
01:32:31,760 --> 01:32:33,320
Speaker 2: the Terminator franchise.

1645
01:32:34,520 --> 01:32:35,519
Speaker 3: If you go back and.

1646
01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:37,920
Speaker 2: This is a fact, if you look at like, okay,

1647
01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:41,400
Speaker 2: number one, number two, number three, there's going to be

1648
01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:45,320
Speaker 2: like more deaths in number two, and then there's gonna

1649
01:32:45,360 --> 01:32:49,320
Speaker 2: be more deaths in number three because you have to

1650
01:32:49,479 --> 01:32:54,880
Speaker 2: keep like shocking the audience. And so I wonder, I

1651
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:57,840
Speaker 2: wonder what the NBA learned from Luca in the middle

1652
01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:00,559
Speaker 2: of the night, because that shocked the audience, and my god,

1653
01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:01,080
Speaker 2: it worked.

1654
01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:05,000
Speaker 4: Did it ever? Did it ever? Yeah? So change the

1655
01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:06,759
Speaker 4: whole landscape.

1656
01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:10,639
Speaker 2: Landscape of the NFC East is what we were talking

1657
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:12,200
Speaker 2: about a handful of minutes ago.

1658
01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:13,719
Speaker 3: I want to go back to that next.

1659
01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:17,240
Speaker 2: More drama at Cowboys camp and an announcement at Giants camp,

1660
01:33:17,280 --> 01:33:21,879
Speaker 2: which I don't think is going to last even halfway

1661
01:33:21,880 --> 01:33:22,559
Speaker 2: into the season.

1662
01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:25,400
Speaker 3: So we'll get to all of that coming up next.

1663

1680
01:34:12,120 --> 01:34:17,320
Speaker 2: of the shows, and Plank and Spaniard are standing by.

1681
01:34:17,600 --> 01:34:19,479
Speaker 3: But we are not done yet.

1682
01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:23,920
Speaker 2: We've still got our Steve Disager finale just a handful

1683
01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:27,720
Speaker 2: of minutes away. We always look forward to that. And

1684
01:34:28,120 --> 01:34:35,640
Speaker 2: I am gonna set the over under on Russell Wilson

1685
01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:38,719
Speaker 2: Weeks to start the season as the starter.

1686
01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:40,840
Speaker 3: At five and a half.

1687
01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:46,360
Speaker 2: Day, Ball has already announced, Oh, Russell Wilson is our starter.

1688
01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:50,000
Speaker 3: That's he's our starter.

1689
01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:56,719
Speaker 2: And it's like clockwork whenever you draft a first round QB.

1690
01:34:56,800 --> 01:35:01,280
Speaker 2: But it's like not number one overall, not number two overhaul,

1691
01:35:01,680 --> 01:35:05,320
Speaker 2: but he's an early pick, and you know that's going

1692
01:35:05,360 --> 01:35:09,080
Speaker 2: to be the guy. The coach can't wait for camp

1693
01:35:09,120 --> 01:35:12,160
Speaker 2: to start and have the media turn the mics on

1694
01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:16,639
Speaker 2: to say, no, that's not our starter, that's not our starter.

1695
01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:21,640
Speaker 2: And it's like this classic way to sort of motivate

1696
01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:25,759
Speaker 2: the young man and also alleviate pressure on the young man.

1697
01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:28,400
Speaker 2: And I'm like, dude, we just we all know what

1698
01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:32,240
Speaker 2: you're doing. We all know what you're doing, and so

1699
01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:36,080
Speaker 2: what do you think how many weeks? Because here's the

1700
01:35:36,120 --> 01:35:38,800
Speaker 2: other problem for Russell Wilson. And I haven't looked at

1701
01:35:40,000 --> 01:35:42,240
Speaker 2: I can pull this up right now. I haven't looked

1702
01:35:42,320 --> 01:35:46,080
Speaker 2: at the New York Giants early schedule. But here's one

1703
01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:48,839
Speaker 2: thing I do know. That's the worst team in their division.

1704
01:35:50,080 --> 01:35:53,559
Speaker 2: And they will start in their division with back to

1705
01:35:53,600 --> 01:35:57,240
Speaker 2: back road games. They will go to Washington, they will

1706
01:35:57,240 --> 01:36:01,040
Speaker 2: go to Dallas, and then their first home games are

1707
01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:07,559
Speaker 2: against Kansas City and the Chargers. You you you could

1708
01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:11,920
Speaker 2: easily sell me on H to four and and so

1709
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:14,799
Speaker 2: then what are you doing, Russell Wilson? Still your starter?

1710
01:36:15,520 --> 01:36:17,640
Speaker 2: Like they're gonna lose games. So I don't know.

1711
01:36:17,640 --> 01:36:19,800
Speaker 3: What do you think how many weeks would you give

1712
01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:20,599
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson.

1713
01:36:24,320 --> 01:36:29,360
Speaker 4: I'll give them eight eight? Okay, okay, I give them.

1714
01:36:29,560 --> 01:36:31,320
Speaker 4: What they're not gonna do is they're not gonna let me.

1715
01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:33,160
Speaker 4: I don't have the Let me pull up the schedule.

1716
01:36:33,400 --> 01:36:35,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, you want to know who the next four are?

1717
01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:37,960
Speaker 4: No, No, you're gonna love it. I can't.

1718
01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:40,400
Speaker 2: I just make a noise when you see it. You're

1719
01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:42,599
Speaker 2: gonna love the next four games after the first four

1720
01:36:42,640 --> 01:36:43,240
Speaker 2: that I told you.

1721
01:36:48,280 --> 01:36:49,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, pull it up.

1722
01:36:49,120 --> 01:36:55,520
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Commanders, Cowboys, Chiefs, Chargers.

1723
01:36:56,040 --> 01:36:59,000
Speaker 3: Yes, then don't go to New Orleans.

1724
01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:07,559
Speaker 4: Saints, Eagle, Broncos Eagles goals for so hold on, let

1725
01:37:07,560 --> 01:37:09,599
Speaker 4: me see hold on, hold on, wait, let me count,

1726
01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:16,479
Speaker 4: let me count, hold on, let me count one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

1727
01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:20,400
Speaker 4: eight nine. Boom. I was one off.

1728
01:37:21,360 --> 01:37:23,360
Speaker 2: Do you think it's You think it's after they get

1729
01:37:23,400 --> 01:37:27,000
Speaker 2: canned by the Niners on November two? Yeah? Okay, maybe

1730
01:37:27,400 --> 01:37:30,400
Speaker 2: then he go to the Bears. Yeah, well that's that's

1731
01:37:30,439 --> 01:37:32,519
Speaker 2: a good point. You need to give Jackson Dart a

1732
01:37:32,600 --> 01:37:33,240
Speaker 2: landing spot.

1733
01:37:33,320 --> 01:37:36,880
Speaker 4: Gotta go. They would prefer home game, but there's no

1734
01:37:36,960 --> 01:37:40,800
Speaker 4: room there, right, there's no room there. So yeah, you

1735
01:37:40,920 --> 01:37:44,679
Speaker 4: gotta take what you can take, and it'll be the Bears.

1736
01:37:44,760 --> 01:37:47,719
Speaker 4: Get him, get him acclimated, and then he'll come home

1737
01:37:47,760 --> 01:37:49,280
Speaker 4: against the Packers.

1738
01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:50,400
Speaker 3: The Packers and the Lions.

1739
01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:54,799
Speaker 4: How did they wait a minute? This schedule is bruis.

1740
01:37:54,840 --> 01:37:56,959
Speaker 3: How did the Giants end up with this schedule?

1741
01:37:57,080 --> 01:37:58,400
Speaker 4: This makes zero sense.

1742
01:37:58,439 --> 01:37:59,400
Speaker 3: I don't even get it.

1743
01:37:59,800 --> 01:38:02,519
Speaker 2: I get that the division teams like they're good and

1744
01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:06,320
Speaker 2: and and so they're in there now the nights the

1745
01:38:06,439 --> 01:38:09,000
Speaker 2: Niners is bad luck because that isn't also a fourth

1746
01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:14,679
Speaker 2: place team, but the Cake their schedule is absurdly easy

1747
01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:20,639
Speaker 2: on paper. But green Bay and Detroit and a trip

1748
01:38:20,720 --> 01:38:27,200
Speaker 2: to Denver and oh god, like Minnesota is coming to town,

1749
01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:32,519
Speaker 2: and that Philadelphia twice in three weeks, with one of

1750
01:38:32,520 --> 01:38:38,280
Speaker 2: them being on a Thursday. Like, wow, this is a

1751
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:40,320
Speaker 2: very short period of time that you'll be playing the

1752
01:38:40,320 --> 01:38:43,479
Speaker 2: Super Bowl champions twice with a trip to Denver sandwiched

1753
01:38:43,520 --> 01:38:44,000
Speaker 2: in between.

1754
01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:52,000
Speaker 4: But it's gonna be is when he Yeah, he'll get

1755
01:38:52,240 --> 01:38:53,200
Speaker 4: his shot week ten.

1756
01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:57,400
Speaker 3: So they're own four. You don't think we five in

1757
01:38:57,439 --> 01:38:58,040
Speaker 3: New Orleans?

1758
01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:01,080
Speaker 4: In New Orleans, I think it's still too soon.

1759
01:39:01,520 --> 01:39:03,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're probably right, because you go to New Orleans

1760
01:39:03,600 --> 01:39:05,639
Speaker 2: and then four days later you got the Eagles.

1761
01:39:05,720 --> 01:39:07,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's too soon. You don't want that. You don't

1762
01:39:07,439 --> 01:39:09,200
Speaker 4: want to run up against that. That's that's what you

1763
01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:11,400
Speaker 4: don't want. You don't want to lose that game in

1764
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:14,519
Speaker 4: New Orleans and then go right right, like, that's what

1765
01:39:14,560 --> 01:39:17,040
Speaker 4: you don't want. You want to at least get that one.

1766
01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:20,720
Speaker 2: In a standalone game against the Super Bowl champs. You're

1767
01:39:20,720 --> 01:39:23,720
Speaker 2: probably right. You're probably right. I threw that number out

1768
01:39:23,720 --> 01:39:26,080
Speaker 2: there before I had looked at it. I don't believe this.

1769
01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:33,120
Speaker 4: Schedule that do you want to amend yours kind of Yeah,

1770
01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:34,439
Speaker 4: you're right.

1771
01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:37,480
Speaker 2: I wasn't thinking about it from that perspective.

1772
01:39:37,479 --> 01:39:43,040
Speaker 4: That's ever think about the runway for the kid. That's it.

1773
01:39:42,560 --> 01:39:44,880
Speaker 4: That's the only thing that really matters. That's the only

1774
01:39:44,920 --> 01:39:46,280
Speaker 4: thing that they're really looking at.

1775
01:39:46,400 --> 01:39:49,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, but there's no runway. There's no runway.

1776
01:39:50,520 --> 01:39:52,400
Speaker 2: And like we're sitting here going, oh, there'll be one

1777
01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:54,880
Speaker 2: and eight, Like, I don't know, Look, it's football and

1778
01:39:54,920 --> 01:39:59,040
Speaker 2: it's Russell Wilson. He might get some games here and there.

1779
01:39:59,120 --> 01:40:01,559
Speaker 2: I don't know who'd all upset? You know, maybe they'll

1780
01:40:01,600 --> 01:40:03,800
Speaker 2: go into Dallas Week two and win. I don't know,

1781
01:40:05,080 --> 01:40:07,400
Speaker 2: but there's no runway.

1782
01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:09,880
Speaker 4: No, this is tough.

1783
01:40:10,200 --> 01:40:13,240
Speaker 2: And their home game to start the second half against

1784
01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:16,080
Speaker 2: another fourth place club just happens to be the Niners.

1785
01:40:17,360 --> 01:40:25,080
Speaker 2: We're just not your normal fourth place clubs. That's I

1786
01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:26,800
Speaker 2: don't like. I'd have to go do the math. I

1787
01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:28,879
Speaker 2: don't understand how they ended up with this schedule.

1788
01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:30,680
Speaker 4: And somebody hates the Giants.

1789
01:40:31,880 --> 01:40:33,320
Speaker 3: But it's math, like it's an.

1790
01:40:33,200 --> 01:40:37,839
Speaker 4: Algorithm, so it just spits out what computers hate the Giants.

1791
01:40:37,960 --> 01:40:43,280
Speaker 2: I mean, m that's gonna be that. I like your phrase.

1792
01:40:43,479 --> 01:40:44,719
Speaker 2: That's gonna be tough living.

1793
01:40:47,080 --> 01:40:55,320
Speaker 4: Good luck. Yeah, well yeah, well, with the bad news

Speaker 9: The PGA Tour stop was in Minnesota. The winner is

1847
01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:47,840
Speaker 9: American Kurt Kittayama by one strokeover Sam Stevens and four

1848
01:43:47,880 --> 01:43:50,240
Speaker 9: other golfers you've never heard of finished in a tie

1849
01:43:50,240 --> 01:43:54,679
Speaker 9: for third. Kurt Kittayama gets one point five million dollars

1850
01:43:54,720 --> 01:43:58,880
Speaker 9: for this victory. Though at Live golf third place got

1851
01:43:58,880 --> 01:44:02,439
Speaker 9: one point five million dollars today and again those are

1852
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:06,320
Speaker 9: only three day tournaments. Live Golf UK winner is Joaquin

1853
01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:11,479
Speaker 9: Neeman from Chile. This is the fifth time this season

1854
01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:15,479
Speaker 9: he has won a live golf event, which means five

1855
01:44:15,640 --> 01:44:19,320
Speaker 9: different times this year he has taken home the four

1856
01:44:19,520 --> 01:44:22,000
Speaker 9: million dollars first prize.

1857
01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:25,000
Speaker 4: Man Wow going to somebody going to Sizzley.

1858
01:44:26,360 --> 01:44:29,360
Speaker 9: So good idea or bad idea for him to go

1859
01:44:29,400 --> 01:44:33,160
Speaker 9: to Live Golf Ladies and gentlemen. John Rahm's team took

1860
01:44:33,160 --> 01:44:36,439
Speaker 9: home the team title best total scores amongst them. So

1861
01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:39,160
Speaker 9: that's a three million dollar prize to split. And by

1862
01:44:39,200 --> 01:44:41,479
Speaker 9: the way, he has an individual tied for fifth place,

1863
01:44:41,520 --> 01:44:43,600
Speaker 9: so he gets seven hundred and fifty thousand for that,

1864
01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:47,360
Speaker 9: another seven to fifty for his part of the team

1865
01:44:47,400 --> 01:44:51,360
Speaker 9: title as well. Joaquin Neeman was a three shot winner

1866
01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:54,799
Speaker 9: over Bubba Watson, who takes home two and a quarter

1867
01:44:54,880 --> 01:45:00,639
Speaker 9: million dollars for finishing second. And the dreaded Kleb Surad

1868
01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:03,759
Speaker 9: was your third bab third place golfer, getting one point

1869
01:45:03,840 --> 01:45:05,960
Speaker 9: five million dollars back to you.

1870
01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:08,760
Speaker 3: What a weekend to have the name Bubba and be

1871
01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:09,840
Speaker 3: in sports.

1872
01:45:11,240 --> 01:45:14,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, that worked out very very well, both in golf

1873
01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:18,840
Speaker 2: and uh and and racing. Yeah, there's not I mean

1874
01:45:18,880 --> 01:45:21,000
Speaker 2: you and I had I thought some fun discussions about

1875
01:45:21,000 --> 01:45:24,720
Speaker 2: this back when it was hot. It's gotten pretty quiet

1876
01:45:25,120 --> 01:45:29,400
Speaker 2: from the crew that was like hot and bothered about

1877
01:45:29,439 --> 01:45:32,920
Speaker 2: everybody joining live. It's gotten pretty quiet.

1878
01:45:33,120 --> 01:45:34,720
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, pretty.

1879
01:45:34,479 --> 01:45:38,120
Speaker 9: Quiet because haven't they been negotiating to have Saudi money

1880
01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:39,080
Speaker 9: joining the PGA?

1881
01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:39,759
Speaker 3: Of course?

1882
01:45:39,760 --> 01:45:40,960
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, how long?

1883
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:43,439
Speaker 3: By the way, long? Yeah? How long have they been?

1884
01:45:43,800 --> 01:45:44,519
Speaker 4: Yeah? Too long?

1885
01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:49,280
Speaker 3: Negotiating? Good Lord, Like, what's gonna happen first? The end

1886
01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:51,439
Speaker 3: of that? Or is kaminga going to sign somewhere.

1887
01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:54,200
Speaker 9: I thought you're gonna say, what the end of time?

1888
01:45:54,680 --> 01:45:57,680
Speaker 2: Well? Right, I know, Sorry I went. I went with

1889
01:45:57,760 --> 01:46:02,840
Speaker 2: Bay Area frustration humor. Sorry, but my god, like that

1890
01:46:02,840 --> 01:46:05,360
Speaker 2: that that got all crazy.

1891
01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:08,240
Speaker 3: And then it just and then it just went quiet.

1892
01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:12,320
Speaker 2: And I assume it's still happening, but I don't know,

1893
01:46:13,439 --> 01:46:16,200
Speaker 2: but it got very very quiet from the uh, the

1894
01:46:16,240 --> 01:46:18,960
Speaker 2: people who were very offended by live golf.

1895
01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:23,040
Speaker 9: Yeah, is it possible that it's just staying quiet for

1896
01:46:23,439 --> 01:46:26,960
Speaker 9: let's say, a four year term?

1897
01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:30,080
Speaker 3: Sure? Yeah, sure, I mean you probably know more about

1898
01:46:30,120 --> 01:46:32,400
Speaker 3: the current contracts than I do.

1899
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:35,719
Speaker 9: There is somebody who is currently serving in this country

1900
01:46:35,720 --> 01:46:38,360
Speaker 9: a four year term, who let's just say, has friends

1901
01:46:38,360 --> 01:46:42,360
Speaker 9: in Saudi Arabia and maybe is involved somewhat in live golf.

1902
01:46:43,600 --> 01:46:47,080
Speaker 4: Just thinking that's a very.

1903
01:46:46,800 --> 01:46:53,719
Speaker 2: Interesting point, very astute. Oh that makes even more fun,

1904
01:46:53,800 --> 01:46:54,240
Speaker 2: don't it.

1905
01:46:54,560 --> 01:46:55,519
Speaker 4: Man? I'll tell you what.

1906
01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:01,000
Speaker 2: Speaking speaking of that man in golf, did you see

1907
01:47:01,040 --> 01:47:05,080
Speaker 2: the video that's gone viral today of him golfing in Scotland?

1908
01:47:05,200 --> 01:47:06,599
Speaker 4: Oh no, I wouldn't watch that.

1909
01:47:06,840 --> 01:47:09,280
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it's not about watching it.

1910
01:47:09,280 --> 01:47:11,920
Speaker 2: It's just there, like if you're scrolling through anything, it

1911
01:47:12,120 --> 01:47:13,599
Speaker 2: just pops up, go fast.

1912
01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:16,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, you can do that.

1913
01:47:16,600 --> 01:47:18,920
Speaker 2: But then like if you scroll past it, it's like

1914
01:47:19,080 --> 01:47:21,280
Speaker 2: it's there and then it's there, and then it's there,

1915
01:47:21,400 --> 01:47:22,120
Speaker 2: and then it's there.

1916
01:47:23,479 --> 01:47:24,240
Speaker 4: I missed it.

1917
01:47:24,320 --> 01:47:27,120
Speaker 3: An air quotes Caddy of Sorts.

1918
01:47:29,000 --> 01:47:32,439
Speaker 2: Hops out of his cart right before he starts to

1919
01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:33,960
Speaker 2: walk up to his next shot.

1920
01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:37,800
Speaker 3: It just tosses a ball on the ground for him.

1921
01:47:38,479 --> 01:47:42,280
Speaker 4: I mean, one thing we do know, and this is

1922
01:47:42,280 --> 01:47:52,600
Speaker 4: in life, Cheata's going cheat. Period Yep. Cheeta's going cheat. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Cards, golf, elections,

1923
01:47:52,760 --> 01:47:58,920
Speaker 4: whatever it is, relationships, Yeah, cheeters, cheat man, you start

1924
01:47:59,040 --> 01:48:01,680
Speaker 4: doing it and it just snowballs.

1925
01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,719
Speaker 9: Better hand score that guy or Kim John.

1926
01:48:04,520 --> 01:48:13,080
Speaker 2: Oom Oh wow yeah wow.

1927
01:48:13,920 --> 01:48:16,040
Speaker 9: I mean I believe had multiple holes in one in

1928
01:48:16,080 --> 01:48:19,120
Speaker 9: a single round, as I heard from the reliable North

1929
01:48:19,240 --> 01:48:20,840
Speaker 9: Korean state media.

1930
01:48:20,920 --> 01:48:21,880
Speaker 4: You damn right he did.

1931
01:48:22,160 --> 01:48:24,439
Speaker 2: He did, he had whatever the hell he said you had,

1932
01:48:25,160 --> 01:48:29,400
Speaker 2: this is what he had. All right, Great stuff, Steve,

1933
01:48:29,439 --> 01:48:32,759
Speaker 2: Thank you as always for the seven to thirty Pacific

1934
01:48:32,800 --> 01:48:34,160
Speaker 2: Time golf escapades.

1935
01:48:34,200 --> 01:48:35,920
Speaker 3: They're one of my favorite parts of our show.

1936
01:48:37,280 --> 01:48:41,599
Speaker 2: So anyway, speaking of super high, powerful people who sometimes

1937
01:48:41,600 --> 01:48:45,400
Speaker 2: aren't trusted, how are we feeling about Jerry Jones and

1938
01:48:45,479 --> 01:48:46,840
Speaker 2: Micah Parsons on.

1939
01:48:46,720 --> 01:48:48,479
Speaker 3: This July twenty seventh.

1940
01:48:49,080 --> 01:48:50,080
Speaker 4: They paid the tight end.

1941
01:48:50,280 --> 01:48:55,320
Speaker 2: They sure did, yep, Jake Ferguson now the I think

1942
01:48:55,360 --> 01:48:57,920
Speaker 2: the seventh highest paid tight end in the history of

1943
01:48:57,920 --> 01:48:58,479
Speaker 2: the league.

1944
01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:01,360
Speaker 4: Wow. Yeah, Well the priorities.

1945
01:49:03,760 --> 01:49:07,720
Speaker 3: I mean, he's a good player, A good player. No,

1946
01:49:07,920 --> 01:49:08,559
Speaker 3: I don't think he.

1947
01:49:08,560 --> 01:49:10,760
Speaker 4: Got you off the field and third and loan.

1948
01:49:11,560 --> 01:49:17,960
Speaker 2: So the Cowboys the last three years to me, have

1949
01:49:18,080 --> 01:49:22,760
Speaker 2: been a study on how not to do this facts

1950
01:49:23,040 --> 01:49:26,360
Speaker 2: and I mean that from about three or four different angles.

1951
01:49:26,720 --> 01:49:32,639
Speaker 2: Number One, they seemingly are so focused on the large

1952
01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:36,760
Speaker 2: contracts at the top end of their roster that it

1953
01:49:37,000 --> 01:49:42,480
Speaker 2: completely divorced itself from how do we go win at football? Example,

1954
01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:47,720
Speaker 2: pay the quarterback, pay the wide receiver, and just forget

1955
01:49:47,880 --> 01:49:50,599
Speaker 2: to have a run game and.

1956
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:53,080
Speaker 3: Defend that position.

1957
01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:55,599
Speaker 4: Double on it. Right.

1958
01:49:55,800 --> 01:50:00,519
Speaker 2: Number two, they keep waiting till the end. Niners and

1959
01:50:00,560 --> 01:50:04,679
Speaker 2: Cowboys get the message waiting doesn't work. It just makes

1960
01:50:04,720 --> 01:50:08,479
Speaker 2: it more expensive. Go now, right, like you waited for TJ.

1961
01:50:08,640 --> 01:50:10,160
Speaker 2: Watt And now TJ.

1962
01:50:10,320 --> 01:50:12,320
Speaker 3: Watt? Now what now?

1963
01:50:12,360 --> 01:50:13,120
Speaker 4: What are you gonna do?

1964
01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:17,920
Speaker 2: And then three is and this is just the most

1965
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:21,280
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones thing. Ever, he just out there talking about

1966
01:50:21,280 --> 01:50:24,680
Speaker 2: it every day. He's just out there talking about it.

1967
01:50:24,720 --> 01:50:27,240
Speaker 2: Like I saw him last week. They're asking him about

1968
01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:31,240
Speaker 2: Micah Parsons and they asked him that question, like, are

1969
01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 2: you gonna do you think that this is like waiting

1970
01:50:34,520 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 2: too long?

1971
01:50:35,080 --> 01:50:36,640
Speaker 3: Maybe you should have done this earlier.

1972
01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:39,200
Speaker 2: And his response, and I'm gonna paraphrase, but it was

1973
01:50:39,240 --> 01:50:42,479
Speaker 2: something along the lines of, well, we didn't wait for

1974
01:50:42,560 --> 01:50:45,960
Speaker 2: the quarterback, and we gave him the biggest contract ever

1975
01:50:46,000 --> 01:50:51,200
Speaker 2: in the NFL and then he barely played. So I'm like, so,

1976
01:50:51,360 --> 01:50:54,879
Speaker 2: now we're gonna use Micah Parsons questions to take shots

1977
01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:58,639
Speaker 2: at our sixty million dollar quarterback as camp opens.

1978
01:50:58,760 --> 01:51:03,479
Speaker 4: Well, he can't get this, Danny. He's literally all over

1979
01:51:03,520 --> 01:51:04,200
Speaker 4: the place.

1980
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:10,840
Speaker 2: Man, right right, And oh, but that Super Bowl is

1981
01:51:10,880 --> 01:51:18,519
Speaker 2: coming meantime. This is what's so amazing too about all

1982
01:51:18,560 --> 01:51:20,760
Speaker 2: of it, because right there, the flagship franchise in all

1983
01:51:20,760 --> 01:51:25,760
Speaker 2: the sports meantime with it, Like two teams in their

1984
01:51:25,800 --> 01:51:29,320
Speaker 2: division played in the NFC title game, one of them

1985
01:51:29,320 --> 01:51:33,000
Speaker 2: won the Super Bowl and the other one went and

1986
01:51:33,080 --> 01:51:35,720
Speaker 2: found the next big thing at quarterback.

1987
01:51:36,360 --> 01:51:38,439
Speaker 3: And that's what they're going to be dealing with. For

1988
01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:40,120
Speaker 3: the next ten years.

1989
01:51:41,320 --> 01:51:47,160
Speaker 4: That's not good. That's not It doesn't look the it

1990
01:51:47,640 --> 01:51:52,559
Speaker 4: doesn't look good. It doesn't look good. No, and I

1991
01:51:52,600 --> 01:51:55,599
Speaker 4: don't think they believe the situation is as dire as

1992
01:51:55,640 --> 01:51:56,040
Speaker 4: it is.

1993
01:51:56,840 --> 01:51:58,880
Speaker 2: Oh, I agree with that's a good statement. I agree

1994
01:51:58,920 --> 01:52:05,920
Speaker 2: with that. Yeah, myopic. Yeah, they're they're right, they're not.

1995
01:52:07,320 --> 01:52:10,640
Speaker 2: They don't see it. They don't see it.

1996
01:52:10,640 --> 01:52:12,519
Speaker 4: Well as a forty.

1997
01:52:12,400 --> 01:52:18,679
Speaker 2: Nine er fan, don't tell them so. Yeah, because it's fun,

1998
01:52:19,120 --> 01:52:24,000
Speaker 2: it's fun to watch. All right, we're in the Fox

1999
01:52:24,040 --> 01:52:26,759
Speaker 2: Sports Radio studios. That's e from Salam. I'm Mark Willard.

2000
01:52:27,439 --> 01:52:33,520
Speaker 2: Coming up next. The Dodgers have an interesting idea that

2001
01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:35,599
Speaker 2: we should toss around a little bit. We'll do that

2002
01:52:35,800 --> 01:52:38,479
Speaker 2: around the bend here on Fox Sports Radio. Well, these

2003
01:52:38,479 --> 01:52:42,000
Speaker 2: are the Fox Sports Radio studios. Another fun night alongside

2004
01:52:42,240 --> 01:52:44,000
Speaker 2: from Salam, I'm Mark Willard.

2005
01:52:44,560 --> 01:52:45,680
Speaker 3: Thank you for being with us.

2006
01:52:45,720 --> 01:52:48,320
Speaker 2: As mentioned Plank and Span, you're right around the corner,

2007
01:52:48,760 --> 01:52:50,880
Speaker 2: by the way, just since I threw his name out there.

2008
01:52:51,640 --> 01:52:56,799
Speaker 2: And once a Hooper, always a Hooper. Can you believe

2009
01:52:56,880 --> 01:53:00,559
Speaker 2: this restricted free agency thing in the NBA? And when

2010
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:04,360
Speaker 2: does it end? Because I you know, I equipped kaminga

2011
01:53:04,400 --> 01:53:09,040
Speaker 2: but it's also it's Josh Giddy in Chicago, it's Grimes

2012
01:53:09,240 --> 01:53:12,440
Speaker 2: in Philly, it's Cam Thomas in Brooklyn.

2013
01:53:13,880 --> 01:53:16,000
Speaker 3: Not a damn thing is happening with anybody.

2014
01:53:16,920 --> 01:53:19,920
Speaker 2: And you know, baseball is the sport that we used

2015
01:53:19,920 --> 01:53:22,920
Speaker 2: to make fun of because nothing would happen in free agency.

2016
01:53:23,479 --> 01:53:26,559
Speaker 2: They're like, oh God, is Bryce Harper going to sign

2017
01:53:26,600 --> 01:53:30,240
Speaker 2: in February? Like hot stove is now cold? Well, here's

2018
01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:34,000
Speaker 2: NBA free agency, which used to be like here it is,

2019
01:53:34,200 --> 01:53:36,519
Speaker 2: and then four days later it's like that was fun.

2020
01:53:36,680 --> 01:53:40,880
Speaker 2: It's over. And we had that with the frontline guys.

2021
01:53:41,680 --> 01:53:46,280
Speaker 2: But there's all kinds of players who are stuck waiting

2022
01:53:46,439 --> 01:53:50,040
Speaker 2: for X, Y and Z to happen, some sort of movement,

2023
01:53:50,760 --> 01:53:54,639
Speaker 2: and it hasn't happened. And I asked my guys at

2024
01:53:54,720 --> 01:53:57,560
Speaker 2: the San Francisco affiliate, which is the home of the

2025
01:53:57,560 --> 01:54:00,479
Speaker 2: Golden State Warriors ninety five to seven the game. When

2026
01:54:00,479 --> 01:54:02,880
Speaker 2: I headed out for the wedding and the honeymoon, I

2027
01:54:02,960 --> 01:54:04,440
Speaker 2: might get this thing all figured.

2028
01:54:04,120 --> 01:54:04,960
Speaker 4: Out while I'm gone.

2029
01:54:05,840 --> 01:54:07,720
Speaker 2: I don't want to come back and have everybody still

2030
01:54:07,760 --> 01:54:09,439
Speaker 2: being like, so, what's gonna happen with Kamenga.

2031
01:54:10,080 --> 01:54:11,439
Speaker 3: Well, they didn't do it.

2032
01:54:11,479 --> 01:54:16,639
Speaker 2: Ephrom and and and here we are and multiple teams

2033
01:54:16,680 --> 01:54:18,960
Speaker 2: in the NBA just stuck in purgatory.

2034
01:54:20,080 --> 01:54:25,320
Speaker 4: I think it's, you know, teams aren't so quick to

2035
01:54:26,280 --> 01:54:31,479
Speaker 4: make moves because of the ramifications of those moves. Now

2036
01:54:32,080 --> 01:54:38,400
Speaker 4: they're expensive. They're expensive moves, yep. And the days of

2037
01:54:38,560 --> 01:54:41,040
Speaker 4: just over pain and the luxury tax and so on

2038
01:54:41,080 --> 01:54:43,760
Speaker 4: and so forth, those days are gone, man, And so

2039
01:54:43,880 --> 01:54:46,520
Speaker 4: you're not going to make a move unless you're sure

2040
01:54:46,640 --> 01:54:50,839
Speaker 4: as an organization that it makes sense, that it fits

2041
01:54:50,920 --> 01:54:54,120
Speaker 4: what you're trying to do. And it takes a little

2042
01:54:54,160 --> 01:54:57,200
Speaker 4: bit more time now it's it's not what it used

2043
01:54:57,240 --> 01:55:02,520
Speaker 4: to be. Takes a little bit more time. And so

2044
01:55:02,680 --> 01:55:06,120
Speaker 4: teams aren't in a rush. They're not in a rush.

2045
01:55:06,360 --> 01:55:09,840
Speaker 2: Well, I also think the stubbornness of certain players and

2046
01:55:09,920 --> 01:55:14,680
Speaker 2: agents like you landed. You landed in this moment at

2047
01:55:14,720 --> 01:55:17,720
Speaker 2: a bad time, and that sucks. But I think to

2048
01:55:17,800 --> 01:55:23,720
Speaker 2: your point, there's nobody's fault and there's nothing anybody can

2049
01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:26,880
Speaker 2: do about it. So you're a restricted free agent and

2050
01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:29,560
Speaker 2: a year ago you're looking at your numbers and who

2051
01:55:29,600 --> 01:55:31,480
Speaker 2: you are in the league, and you're like, that's worth

2052
01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:32,640
Speaker 2: twenty five to thirty.

2053
01:55:32,440 --> 01:55:33,000
Speaker 4: Million a year.

2054
01:55:33,680 --> 01:55:36,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, And then you get here and you're like I

2055
01:55:36,960 --> 01:55:40,000
Speaker 2: want twenty five million, I want thirty million, and all

2056
01:55:40,000 --> 01:55:42,320
Speaker 2: the teams are like, we don't have that for you,

2057
01:55:42,560 --> 01:55:46,640
Speaker 2: right right, And you're a restricted free agent. So when

2058
01:55:46,640 --> 01:55:48,960
Speaker 2: the team says no, the way you used to handle

2059
01:55:48,960 --> 01:55:51,200
Speaker 2: that is you go find a different team that will.

2060
01:55:51,000 --> 01:55:53,040
Speaker 4: And they'll be like okay, boom, and then they have

2061
01:55:53,080 --> 01:55:55,160
Speaker 4: an opportunity to match and if they don't, you go

2062
01:55:55,240 --> 01:55:56,240
Speaker 4: get your money. Right.

2063
01:55:56,280 --> 01:55:59,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, all the teams, all of them have collectively

2064
01:55:59,280 --> 01:56:05,040
Speaker 2: been like new, We're good. So like, this is the

2065
01:56:05,080 --> 01:56:09,040
Speaker 2: biggest staring contest I've ever seen in the NBA off season.

2066
01:56:10,160 --> 01:56:14,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's. It's it's and no one does because it's

2067
01:56:14,480 --> 01:56:18,560
Speaker 4: it's never been like this. It's a new dawn, it's

2068
01:56:18,560 --> 01:56:19,000
Speaker 4: a new.

2069
01:56:18,920 --> 01:56:23,200
Speaker 2: Day, and they're not feeling good and they're not.

2070
01:56:26,840 --> 01:56:29,080
Speaker 4: Money Tree have money Tree dried up?

2071
01:56:29,160 --> 01:56:31,600
Speaker 3: Bore oh man, oh man.

2072
01:56:32,600 --> 01:56:35,000
Speaker 2: So the Dodger thing I was I was going to

2073
01:56:35,080 --> 01:56:38,800
Speaker 2: mention to you because I'm always looking for ways to

2074
01:56:38,960 --> 01:56:42,640
Speaker 2: get the good No no, no, no, no no no, this

2075
01:56:42,760 --> 01:56:45,960
Speaker 2: is actually like right show hal Tani, They're gonna start

2076
01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:48,960
Speaker 2: like extending him a little bit more, and so in

2077
01:56:49,040 --> 01:56:51,720
Speaker 2: order to accommodate that, they're looking and also they got

2078
01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:54,000
Speaker 2: Blake Snell coming back, and then they got right as

2079
01:56:54,040 --> 01:56:57,600
Speaker 2: they get healthy, they're looking at maybe a six man rotation.

2080
01:56:59,200 --> 01:57:02,000
Speaker 2: And I thought to my self, why don't everybody just

2081
01:57:02,000 --> 01:57:06,160
Speaker 2: do that? Because you won't leave him out there anymore anyway. Right,

2082
01:57:06,480 --> 01:57:10,360
Speaker 2: It's kind of like again aforementioned load management in the NBA.

2083
01:57:11,120 --> 01:57:14,080
Speaker 2: If we can find a way to get people on

2084
01:57:14,120 --> 01:57:16,920
Speaker 2: the field more the people we want to see, let's

2085
01:57:16,920 --> 01:57:20,920
Speaker 2: do that. So would you wait an extra day to

2086
01:57:20,960 --> 01:57:23,320
Speaker 2: see your favorite starter, but then maybe you're a little

2087
01:57:23,320 --> 01:57:25,600
Speaker 2: bit more likely to let that starter go seven innings

2088
01:57:26,160 --> 01:57:28,120
Speaker 2: as opposed to pulling him out after four and two

2089
01:57:28,120 --> 01:57:28,960
Speaker 2: thirds all the time.

2090
01:57:29,000 --> 01:57:33,160
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, that's that's I'm still not okay with that.

2091
01:57:33,360 --> 01:57:38,640
Speaker 4: But you know, I'm a I'm a fan of players

2092
01:57:38,640 --> 01:57:46,400
Speaker 4: playing stars playing same like that's that's the point, and

2093
01:57:46,440 --> 01:57:55,640
Speaker 4: so just let let us watch greatness please. It's very cautious,

2094
01:57:55,960 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 4: especially in baseball. It's you know, I had a good

2095
01:58:00,840 --> 01:58:04,280
Speaker 4: friend of mine who was played in Major League's a

2096
01:58:04,280 --> 01:58:09,120
Speaker 4: long time. He had some thoughts about pictures shouldn't pictures

2097
01:58:09,120 --> 01:58:16,360
Speaker 4: shouldn't be up for MVP. I I, yeah, I kind

2098
01:58:16,360 --> 01:58:20,600
Speaker 4: of agree with that, right because don't play enough. They

2099
01:58:20,600 --> 01:58:24,120
Speaker 4: don't play they don't play enough baseball, don't play enough, man,

2100
01:58:24,280 --> 01:58:27,840
Speaker 4: they don't play enough. And so I was like, hmm,

2101
01:58:27,920 --> 01:58:31,320
Speaker 4: that's interesting. If that's what's coming out of the you know,

2102
01:58:32,800 --> 01:58:37,440
Speaker 4: the clubhouses, then that's a that's an interesting point.

2103
01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:40,880
Speaker 2: Pictures now are amazing. If they can get to two

2104
01:58:40,960 --> 01:58:43,160
Speaker 2: hundred innings in a year. Do you not how many

2105
01:58:43,160 --> 01:58:44,800
Speaker 2: innings a team plays.

2106
01:58:46,040 --> 01:58:47,320
Speaker 4: In a year? How many?

2107
01:58:47,480 --> 01:58:51,160
Speaker 2: Almost fifteen hundred. So you're gonna give MVP to somebody

2108
01:58:51,160 --> 01:58:54,400
Speaker 2: who's scratching to play two hundred innings out of your

2109
01:58:54,400 --> 01:58:55,160
Speaker 2: fifteen hundred?

2110
01:58:55,960 --> 01:58:56,200
Speaker 4: No?

2111
01:58:56,600 --> 01:58:58,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like what your friends said. Great show, brother,

2112
01:58:59,120 --> 01:59:01,600
Speaker 2: great stuff today. Man, we'll do it again next week
