00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,200

9
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: If I hear a comparison between the men's Olympic basketball

10
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,160
Speaker 2: team that we're sending to Paris and the Dream Team

11
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 2: one more time, I'm taking a hostage. Although someone did

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: ask me last week about the ninety two team, which

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 2: I saw close and personal. They asked me if I

14
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: thought this version of the team that Colin and everybody

15
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,279
Speaker 2: else wants to shove down our throat as being this

16
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 2: unreal collection of talent, which they may be on paper. Okay,

17
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 2: could they beat that ninety two Olympic team? Somebody asked

18
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: me that. I said, oh, yeah, they could beat him.

19
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: But you got to remember most of those guys who

20
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 2: are in their sixties now hold that thought. I'll give

21
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 2: a more objective view of this in a minute. There

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: were three basketball games today that I had marked as

23
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 2: appointment viewing, and we talked about this heavily on my

24
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 2: show Friday night during the midnight hour, and today once

25
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: again proved something I've said a thousand times. Sports continues

26
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 2: to be the greatest reality show and you can script

27
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: everything but the ending. The first one that I had,

28
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: believe it or not, was the four pm Pacific game

29
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 2: the NBA Summer League, and I wanted to see the

30
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: Broni brigade continue. He didn't play. No big deal, that

31
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: stand and operated procedure. Typically draft choices don't play in

32
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 2: the final Summer League game. Onward and upward we'll talk

33
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: about that with Mark Madeen at midnight. Nothing to see there.

34
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: The w NBA All Star Game was absolute appointment viewing,

35
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 2: which again we talked about heavily on my show Friday Night.

36
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 2: In this era of All Star games that have jumped

37
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: the shark because they're boring and gratuitous and non competitive,

38
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 2: that was a real contest Saturday Night. That was a

39
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: real throwback with real storylines. Hold that thought. We're going

40
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: to get to that later in the show a little

41
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: bit later. And then there was the USA versus South Sudan.

42
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 2: And somebody said to me, well, you know, maybe a

43
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 2: loss by a whoke abab bob, you know a good loss.

44
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 2: I said, no, no, no, no, there's no such thing as

45
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 2: a good loss. There's no such thing as a good

46
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: kidney stone either. So whoever told you that? And you

47
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: decided to repeat it so you can impressure your friends

48
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 2: at the water cooler get rid of that one. Okay? No,

49
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 2: but and by the way, it should that have happened,

50
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: would it? You don't want doubt to ever creep in

51
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: for any reason. You don't want to end your mind.

52
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: But I'm gonna tell you don't overreact to this, please please,

53
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: It's just it's it becomes one of those situations where

54
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: the conversation is going to take on the life of

55
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 2: its own because this twelve man USA roster is filled

56
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 2: with a lot of some of the current great NBA talent,

57
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: while only four members of the South Sudan team have

58
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 2: ever even played just one NBA game, But that South

59
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: Sudan team played the world number one ranked team. By

60
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 2: the way, Sudan is ranked thirty third. They hit sixty

61
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: one percent of their shots in the first half. USA

62
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: only made one three pointer. Okay, what happened here? What

63
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 2: do I really think happened? I think they took the

64
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: floor of these players. We're in the area of load

65
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: management and drinking wine in the second row and looking

66
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: cool and saying stupid things and switching teams. You don't

67
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 2: like the team you're on, that's the error. So they

68
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 2: showed up on the you know today and they said, look,

69
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: we got some light work today, forty three and a

70
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 2: half point favorites. What are we worried about? Let's not

71
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: sweat this thing. And they got an unexpected challenge from

72
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: a team that proved, you know what, a star might

73
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 2: win you one game, but a team might win them all.

74
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: And a couple of guys mariy Olshaiaki had twenty five

75
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 2: points for South Sudan and JT Thor hit a three

76
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 2: pointer he's seen time with the Charlotte Hornets to put

77
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: the team ahead by one, and Lebron James after the game.

78
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 2: So this is better than blowouts. At least we got tested.

79
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 2: I like getting tested, baby good, because we always want

80
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 2: to have that Lebron quote. But you know, fair enough,

81
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 2: you really weren't tested. You tested yourself to see if

82
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 2: you could show up and realize that this might not

83
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: be an unexpected challenge. Maybe you're not that mature. After all,

84
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 2: this team from South Sudan got a lot of respect.

85
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 2: Do I think they'll eaven make it to the medal round? No,

86
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: I don't. But but what they did Saturday got everybody attention.

87
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: And at the end Team USA they fed it off

88
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: a good looking, strong, South suit An team which I

89
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 2: don't think I'll make it to the medal round. They

90
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 2: came back for fourteen points down. Lebron did get the

91
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: game winning layup, cleared the guy with his arm and

92
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 2: made no mistake. In the final position, Anthony Edwards mulled

93
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 2: the guy they went up for a layup, But you're

94
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 2: not going to make that call. So the question is

95
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 2: now where do we go from here? For? Yeah, where

96
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 2: do we go from here? This Olympic team, all right,

97
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: they faced a team Saturday that was severely undermanned. But

98
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: they were resourceful, and they were athletic, and they were

99
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 2: aggressive and they were well coached. So what does it

100
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: all mean? Pee wee? Where do we go from here?

101
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 2: On a home dinner maybe a show? Where we go

102
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 2: from here is when the US team decides they need

103
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 2: to play desperate, they will. That's exactly what they'll do,

104
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: and no one will remember this game when the USA

105
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: wins the gold medal four weeks from now, whenever the

106
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 2: hell the final game is going to be all right,

107
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 2: they still are able to put forth the rotations when

108
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,159
Speaker 2: they need them. They have more depth than anybody else.

109
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: When they decide they really want to, they'll apply significant

110
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 2: defensive pressure. Even though the international game is a team

111
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 2: game and the USA plays a single man game, They're

112
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 2: gonna out athlete the world. They're gonna win their one

113
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 2: on one battles. They're not a great team, but they

114
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 2: got a collection of misfit toys that Steve Kerr has

115
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 2: been saddled with. And I heard someone say they thought

116
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 2: Steve Krusse should be fired. Maybe it's tongue in cheek,

117
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 2: Maybe it's tongue in cheak. I think Steve Kurs should

118
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 2: get a raise to have to put up with these knuckleheads.

119
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 2: He is the one that put the backups on the floor,

120
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 2: which began the comeback. What's he gonna do? Make them

121
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 2: run laps, yell at him, pull the Bobby Night routine. No,

122
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 2: he's not gonna do any of that. I've told you

123
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: a hundred times on the show, Chuck Day once told

124
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 2: me that coaching a team in the NBA is all

125
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 2: about managing an adult daycare center. And he didn't say

126
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: it in the pejorative. What he meant was, these guys

127
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 2: are all grown men, or if you know, you want

128
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 2: to sound cool that they say they have grown ass men,

129
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: grown ass men. That makes you sound cool in some circles.

130
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: But they are growing men, and they're accomplished, and they're rich,

131
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: very rich. And your job when you walk through that

132
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 2: door is to get them to like you and maybe

133
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 2: respect you, and play hard for you and put up

134
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 2: with you and now talk about you behind your back.

135
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: It's the old Billy Martin thing. Billy Martin was successfully

136
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 2: He said, you know, I got twenty twenty five men

137
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 2: on a roster. Ten like you, ten hate you. Five

138
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 2: can make up their mind. Your job is to keep

139
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 2: the five who can't make up their mind from the

140
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 2: ten who hate you. Your job as an NBA coach, manager, advisor,

141
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it, it's to stay out

142
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 2: of the way, but have enough of a presence to

143
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: where they'll listen to you sometimes and they'll play hard

144
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: for you sometimes and when they need to get desperate,

145
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 2: like the USA team did in the second half, Steve

146
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: Currow did something, I mean, changed their rotations. You should

147
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 2: be able to okay. Finally, the US entered the fourth

148
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 2: quarter with an eighty one seventy six advantage, and at

149
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 2: that point you thought they might win by double digits.

150
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: And they finished the third quarter they started to get

151
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: their confidence. Joel Embiid made a layup. By the way,

152
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 2: this should maybe send Joel Embid home. I don't think

153
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: the international game for him. Put Donovan kling him on

154
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 2: the team. Lebron hit him with a Nola pass, and

155
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 2: after scoring only twenty points in the second quarter, the

156
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 2: US outscored the South Houdan thirty seven eighteen and the

157
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: third they got their footing back and then they started

158
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 2: to play with their food again. The USA did South Houdin.

159
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 2: They pushed back throughout the fourth quarter. The Americans held

160
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 2: out of the lead to the final seconds and he

161
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 2: saw the final two possessions. Lebron iso the guy cleared

162
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 2: him with his hand, got a layup. Great against the guy.

163
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: He'll never be in the NBA. But he didn't The

164
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 2: team Lebron did lead the team with twenty three points,

165
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: and frankly, he may be the adult in the room

166
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 2: that this team needs. They're gonna win the gold medal. Okay,

167
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 2: I saw what they did to Canada here in Las

168
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 2: Vegas about a week and a half ago. That was

169
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,599
Speaker 2: a really good game. Canada is really good and the

170
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: USA it didn't play together and they went by fourteen.

171
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 2: That's the kind of effort you'll see, I think when

172
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,959
Speaker 2: they need to. But they're gonna take their foot off

173
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 2: the gas and put their foot back on the gas

174
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: and play with their food and do what they do.

175
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 2: And there'll be you know, people who want to fire

176
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: Steve Kerr and they want to do this, and at

177
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 2: at the end of the day, this would be the

178
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 2: biggest anti climactic thing you've ever seen. And oh, by

179
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 2: the way, like I always do, he and my guys

180
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: save the sound bite. So if the end of beginning

181
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: beating the metal round or something, I'll eat my humble piet.

182
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna have to, because the reality of

183
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 2: it is, they know, if the team just knows that

184
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 2: they have an extra gear, that the rest of the

185
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: teams in the tournament, maybe Canada. But you saw what

186
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 2: happened Canada through their best bunch at USA here. They

187
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 2: really did and they're by the way, they're a very

188
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 2: good team. Serbia they're okay, Germany's pretty good. But forget it.

189
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 2: No one will remember today. They won't and so everybody,

190
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 2: you know, take it easy. Calm down, lay down, get

191
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 2: yourself some warm milk and soft music, get yourself a

192
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: cold compress. They won by one, and it wouldn't have

193
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 2: mattered if they'd have lost either, because the games don't

194
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 2: count right now. And that's how this man's NBA is.

195
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: They come and go as they please, whether you like

196
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 2: it or not. But they'll get the gold medal because

197
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 2: they're deeper, more athletic, perhaps more talented, more physical the

198
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 2: athlete they got, the depth, they got, the rotation, and

199
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 2: Steve Kerr didn't forget how to coach. Remember he's not

200
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 2: coaching anyway, Like I said, he's managing an adult daycare center.

201
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 2: Coming up, it's time to look toward college football.

202
00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 3: Oh.

203
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 2: I got to tell you man, it's here, folks. And

204
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,599
Speaker 2: by the way, we're gonna get to a lot of

205
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 2: NFL stuff tonight too, believe it or not. A week

206
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 2: from next Thursday, we get the Hall of Fame game,

207
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 2: but we're bringing Brad Powers at Brad Power Sports. One

208
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 2: of the most knowledgeable, hardworking is a human computer. And look,

209
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 2: there are some notable absences this year. One of the

210
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 2: things I want to talk about Alabama. Nick Saban is

211
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 2: no longer there, but believe it or not, you can

212
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: still get Alabama plus nine hundred to win the SEC.

213
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 2: Howell Michigan be without Jim Harbor and JJ McCarthy. Is

214
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 2: it too early to handicap the Heisman Trophy race? Nope?

215
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 2: All the above will rifle shoot some things as it's

216
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:44,360

Speaker 2: situation and give you terrific analysis. Proud to have known

244
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 2: them for about twelve years. You find them at bradpowerssports

245
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 2: dot Com. Say hello to the college football guru, Brad Powers. Brad,

246
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 2: how are you, buddy?

247
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 6: Excellent nine to intro for me. I'm pumped up now

248
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 6: I'm ready for the season, Bernie.

249
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: After that, well, well deserved, Brad. I've known you a

250
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: long time, and hell, we could do the whole four hours.

251
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 2: So I'll have to rifle shoot because I kind of

252
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 2: want to start at the top. One of the big

253
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 2: storylines this year is no Nick Saban, and I am

254
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 2: one of the few that doesn't think there's going to

255
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 2: be much of a precipitous fall at Alabama. But yet

256
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: you look at them, their plus nine hundred to win

257
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: the SEC. How do you not take a fly around that?

258
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 6: Well, I have because we haven't seen Alabama with that

259
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,839
Speaker 6: long of odds to win the SEC since about two

260
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 6: thousand and eight did so I'm go back to Nick

261
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 6: Saban's second season. Last time you've seen Alabama with deepets

262
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,559
Speaker 6: odds and wins, it was only nine and a half

263
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 6: and it shaded towards the unders. So you're right, not

264
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 6: much is expected, at least comparatively speaking from compared to

265
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 6: the last fifteen years for Alabama this year, and then,

266
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 6: you know, I kind of agree with you. I'm now

267
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 6: when the Nick Saban news originally broke that there was

268
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 6: a lot of collegeootball markets still available at that time, Bernie.

269
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 6: And you know, at that time, Alabamas roster was open

270
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 6: to the transfer portal. Everybody else's was closed. So I

271
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 6: thought that that roster get rated more than what it was.

272
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 6: So I went from a position of being kind of

273
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 6: anti Alabama back let's say, in February March, to now

274
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 6: that the dust is settled, everything settled in a little bit,

275
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 6: I am more pro Alabama at this point.

276
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, just every so quickly. Look, Caitlin Debora, I'm a

277
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 2: big fan of his offense. Has not only moved the

278
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 2: ball and score points, they're entertaining. They put up thirty

279
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 2: seven on Texas last year in the Sugar Bowl, so

280
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 2: he knows what Texas looks like. And I just have

281
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: and you know, you got jaln milroll back. And to

282
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 2: your point, it was not a mass exodus in Michigan.

283
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 2: I'm not nearly as confident as in We'll see how

284
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 2: Sharon Moore does. And I know a lot about Alex Orgy.

285
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: He's okay. But I think it's a big drop off.

286
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on Michigan and their quest to repeat is

287
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: big ten champions.

288
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, I agree with you.

289
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 6: It's going to be a significant drop off to say

290
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 6: the least. I definitely don't think they repeat his Big

291
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 6: ten champ, National champion. You want a hot take, I'm

292
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 6: not even sure that they make the twelve team playoffs

293
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 6: this year. That's how big of a fall off I

294
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 6: think there is for Michigan. Let's start on offense. Only

295
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 6: one returning starter on that offensive side of the ball,

296
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 6: so you have a lot of talent to replace there.

297
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 6: Now that they still got some guys Adam and Edward's

298
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 6: gonna have to step up and take a majority of

299
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 6: the carries. But let's see if he's used to that.

300
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 6: He didn't get a majority of the carries last couple

301
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 6: of years and was banged up both here, so I

302
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 6: have some question marks there. Offensive line has been, you know,

303
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 6: the staple of Michigan football last few years. Zero returning

304
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 6: starters on that offensive line, So concerns there. Concerns with

305
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 6: a young coaching staff, to say the least, very inexperienced one.

306
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 6: Harbaugh took out just about everybody with them, including the

307
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 6: strength coach. Defense should be top ten caliber. They certainly

308
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 6: don't have the depth is what they had in the

309
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 6: last couple of years. But I think another reason why

310
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 6: I'm down on Michigan this year. Unlike last season when

311
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 6: they started off with the East Carolina Bowling Green UNLB,

312
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 6: they got Texas and USC early in the month of September.

313
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 6: So when you're trying to break in a new quarterback

314
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 6: and inexperienced coach, I'm not sure that it's playing Texas,

315
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 6: a top five team in week two is going to

316
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 6: be that.

317
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 7: Great for Michigan.

318
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 2: They also get Oregon too, Brad, which needs to my

319
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 2: next question. I think Oregon will run rough shot over

320
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: most of the Big Ten and would not surprise me

321
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 2: if they beat Ohio State with those two lockhorns handicap

322
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: that for me, Who do you think prevails in the

323
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 2: Big Ten? Ohio State or Oregon.

324
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 6: It's tough because I think Oregon will win that matchup

325
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 6: when they play in the regular season in Austin. I

326
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 6: have Oregon favored in that game. But man, then if

327
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 6: they have a rematch in the Big Ten championship game,

328
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 6: it's gonna be awfully tough to beat Ohio State twice.

329
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 6: I will say this, I like Oregon's quarterback situation better

330
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 6: than Ohio State. I'll think Dylan Gabriel over Will Howard

331
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 6: in the day of the Weekend Man. Oregon's recruited very well.

332
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 7: They've hit the portal.

333
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,640
Speaker 6: Obviously they got the Nike war Chess of Money. When

334
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 6: it comes to nil, they're right there.

335
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 7: In the mix.

336
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 6: I mean, on a neutral field, there's not much separating

337
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 6: these two teams. So I think it's kind of a

338
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,199
Speaker 6: I've got coin toss, a coin flip, and you know,

339
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 6: I think you can make bad worse bets. If you

340
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 6: just look at the futures market Big ten and you

341
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 6: just been Ohio State to win it, in Oregon to

342
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 6: win the Big Ten. They're both at plus money. I

343
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 6: think you're in pretty good shape there because I don't

344
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 6: see anybody else winning the Big Ten.

345
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: Talk about Brad Powers, Brad Power Sports are Fox Sports

346
00:17:53,840 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 2: Radio college football guru. So Brad, quick question for you

347
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 2: Texas with Steve Sarkisian. Did they pick up where they

348
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 2: left off last year with quinn Ewers and company?

349
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 6: You know, I think I certainly my power ranks I

350
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 6: got number four, so I think they're going back.

351
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 7: To the playoffs.

352
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 6: But it's always compared to what are expectations.

353
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 7: For Texas is this year?

354
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 6: And what are my power ranks compared to the market

355
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 6: right now? And actually, even though I have them fourth

356
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 6: overall in the country, I think the market's a little

357
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 6: higher on Texas than what I have them because I

358
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 6: have bet Texas under their win total under ten and

359
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 6: a half. I bet against Texas and individual what they

360
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 6: call game of the year lines, you know, the biggest

361
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,199
Speaker 6: games of the year. I bet Oklahoma against Texas. I

362
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 6: have bet Texas A and M. That rivalry is back on.

363
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 6: I bet Texas A and M is a home dog.

364
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 6: So I think Texas a little overpriced. I am. My

365
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 6: worry is obviously, you know, the playing Alabama and Georgia

366
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 6: and teams like that a little different than TCU and

367
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 6: Texas Tech. I mean just their strength of schedules got

368
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 6: going up a little bit.

369
00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 7: And I'm not a big viewers guy.

370
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 6: I I still don't think he's the end all. I'm

371
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 6: not calling for, you know, him to be benched in

372
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 6: Arch manning the era of Arch to start. But I

373
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 6: didn't see it then. That was a game against Washington

374
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 6: they should have won, they didn't. And you look at

375
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 6: those last four throws that quinn Ewers made at the

376
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 6: end of that game.

377
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 7: I mean, I left a.

378
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 2: Lot to be desired. Brad. I'm Glad you mentioned the

379
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 2: twelve team playoff. I'm very much looking forward to it,

380
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 2: and of course, now that means plenty of you know,

381
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 2: a group of five schools are going to be in there.

382
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 2: What are some of the sleepers you're looking at that

383
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 2: would find their way into the twelve team tournament and

384
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 2: maybe even make some noise.

385
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 6: Well, I don't know if they're sleepers. They're kind of

386
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 6: the name the brand names. And I'll start with the

387
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 6: one that I think has the best chance to make it,

388
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,440
Speaker 6: and that's Boise State. I think it's the best Boise

389
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 6: State team maybe a decade deep across the board. I

390
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 6: like Dirk Cutters going to be their offensive corner. I

391
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 6: like that with a young, inexperienced coach. I like both

392
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 6: of their co defensive coordinators. Uh, you know, we'll see

393
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 6: if Malachi Nelson might be their quarterback boll He's a

394
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 6: former five star, number one overall player in the country.

395
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 6: How often do this Boisse State get somebody like that?

396
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 6: Have a former five star recruited wide receiver Ashton Gent.

397
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:12,640
Speaker 7: He plays like a five star.

398
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 6: Probably the best groupall five player regardless of position in

399
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,400
Speaker 6: the entire country. So Boisse State's probably my favorite team

400
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 6: in the G five this year. Memphis is another team

401
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,120
Speaker 6: that I think is in the mix, Liberty, because they

402
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 6: returned Cadence Slider. They obviously made the Fiesta Bowl last year,

403
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 6: and they played the week of schedule yet again in

404
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 6: the country, so they're in the mix if you're looking

405
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 6: for a big time long shot a team that only

406
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 6: had one winning season at the FBS level.

407
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:37,439
Speaker 7: Texas State.

408
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 6: Keeping on Texas State, Yes, I love that coach. Yeah,

409
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 6: DJ Kenny is his name. He's probably the best young

410
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 6: offensive mine in the country. He won't be at Texas

411
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 6: State very long. I can tell you that.

412
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 2: No, that's a good call there, and it might be

413
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 2: a while before the markets catch up with him. They're

414
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 2: one hundred and one to win the national championship. Don't

415
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 2: need to get silly, but to your point, they will

416
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 2: be making headlines. Speaking of headlines, I cannot not have

417
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 2: this conversation without invoking the Colorado Buffaloes and Dion Sanders.

418
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 2: What do you expect out of them in reality this year?

419
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 6: Well, I mean it's similar to last year where I

420
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 6: upgraded their power rating significantly, just that the market has

421
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 6: upgraded it more and I'm not completely buying that they're

422
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 6: a big twelve contender, even though they're a pretty wide

423
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 6: open league. I look at the schedule and I don't

424
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 6: see a lot of shurtfire losses. But the reality is

425
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 6: I don't see a lot of shirtfire wins either, And

426
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 6: I got a team that I got to question the

427
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 6: chemistry because it's a second year in a row. It's,

428
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 6: for the most part, a brand new roster outside of

429
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 6: Shador Standers at quarterback and a couple of other key players,

430
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 6: So I don't know if they're going to have time

431
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 6: to get that chemistry down before that they suffer a

432
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 6: couple of losses, and that's the case with Travis Hunter

433
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 6: and Shadeur. They don't have another year of eligibila. They're

434
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 6: heading in the draft, and so I just wonder how

435
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 6: interested they're going to be playing in the month of

436
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 6: November if they got three or four losses at that point.

437
00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 6: So I am more pessimistic than the market on Colorado

438
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 6: five and a half to win total. Believe it or not,

439
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 6: I would prefer under five and a half.

440
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: I can't see going over, but I'm not in their

441
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 2: hurry to bet the under. The one thing I'm watching

442
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 2: I'd like you to talk about their new offensive line.

443
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,880
Speaker 2: The good news is they're upgraded, but they're all they're

444
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 2: five new starters. You know how that works, Brad. I mean,

445
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 2: if they don't jail, how do you do you expect

446
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 2: to hype around their new offensive line to manifest itself.

447
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 6: Well, it can't be worse than last year. I mean,

448
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 6: obviously they give them more sex than anybody.

449
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 7: In the country.

450
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 6: Last year, some of that's not do it for holding

451
00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 6: the ball onto the ball too long, but obviously didn't

452
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 6: have good offensive line play. It takes time and not

453
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 6: all the Yeah, they brought in a bunch of transfers,

454
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 6: well not all those transfers were ready to go even

455
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 6: in the springs. So can you develop an offensive line

456
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 6: in one fall camp.

457
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 7: I'm not sure.

458
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 6: And I'll tell you what would concern me is what

459
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 6: the game to look out for Nebraska Week two.

460
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 2: Nebraska.

461
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 6: If there's one thing they're really good at, it's upfront

462
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 6: on that defensive line. So if that offensive line is

463
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 6: not ready to go to Nebraska, win that game.

464
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 2: Down here for North Dakota State. But I still expect

465
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 2: him to give an effort. What's interesting, Brad? Last thing

466
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 2: on Colorado. They'll play five games before their bye. If

467
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 2: they have designs on having an above five hundred record,

468
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 2: they better start fast because after the bye you got

469
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 2: Kansas State, Cincinnati at Texas Tech, Utah at Kansas, Oklahoma State.

470
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on those first five games Central Florida, Baylor,

471
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 2: Colorado State, and Nebraska, and of course North Dakota State.

472
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 2: Do you think they can be three and two?

473
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 7: Yeah?

474
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 6: I think so. I mean they're gonna be favored in

475
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 6: three of the five games, North Kota State, the Colorado State,

476
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 6: and Baylor. They'll be favored in those games, and you know,

477
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:46,919
Speaker 6: I don't think the other two are unwinnable, But I

478
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 6: agree with you. After that first bye week, they're the

479
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 6: only game that they're going to be favored in is Cincinnati.

480
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,800
Speaker 6: If you don't believe me, you can pretty much right

481
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 6: now in Vegas that every single Colorado game in the

482
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 6: market and they're only favored in for the twelve games,

483
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 6: and they're gonna get to even both forget the conference.

484
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,360
Speaker 6: If they are going to get the balligibility, they're gonna

485
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 6: have to pull a couple upsets.

486
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 2: You know something about this team, It makes me weary.

487
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 2: They're not getting any of my money, all right, can't

488
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: let you go without talking about the Heisman Trophy outs.

489
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: It feels like a two man race between Dylan Gabriel

490
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 2: and Carson Beck. But you know how these things go.

491
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 2: The reason I say that if Oregon can take the

492
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 2: version of bow Knicks that we saw at Auburn and

493
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 2: turn them into the twelfth overall pick in the draft

494
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: and a Heisman finalist, what can Dan Lanning do with

495
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,439
Speaker 2: Dylan Gabriel. Plus, you know everybody talks about your door, Sanders,

496
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 2: I think Carson Beck is the first round choice. Is

497
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 2: it those two or is it somebody else? Who am

498
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,120
Speaker 2: I missing? No?

499
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 7: I mean those are the two.

500
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 6: I bet both, and those are my two biggest bets

501
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 6: to win the Heis. And I think my favorite one

502
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 6: probably be Gabriel just because I got a longer odds

503
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 6: at fourteen to one at the time when I bet it.

504
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 6: So I mean, by right now, if I you know,

505
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,199
Speaker 6: had to make one, bet it be Dylan Gabriel, just

506
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 6: because I think they'll have a coach and an offense

507
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 6: more likely to put up the stats. And I mean

508
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 6: you're going to read about it. Dylan Gabriel if he

509
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 6: stays healthy this year is going to set the all

510
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 6: time mark, whether it's career path, attempts, completion, passing yardage

511
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 6: in the history of college football. He's gonna break all

512
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 6: those records this year. So I think gonna be another

513
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 6: feather in this cap. And obviously I think Oregon's gonna

514
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 6: be really good. But outside of those two, you're looking to,

515
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 6: you know, bet a little bit of a longer shot.

516
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 6: You know, people in that fifteen twenty to one, maybe

517
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 6: twenty five to one range. Jackson dark quarterback, will Miss.

518
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 6: I think we'll miss will have a really good season

519
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 6: at the very least on the offense side of the ball.

520
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 6: I kind of if he's healthy, keep keep an eye

521
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 6: on Riley Leonard in Notre Dame, you know, a dual threat.

522
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 6: And if Notre Dame wins that first game against Texas

523
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 6: A and M and right now to pick him and

524
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 6: as far as that that individual game, Sur Dame is

525
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 6: gonna be favored in the remaining eleven games and they

526
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 6: if he can put up the stats there with his

527
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 6: legs in his arm a little bit, he's a factor.

528
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 6: He's a guy that I bet thirty to one to

529
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 6: win the Heisman.

530
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 2: Riley Leonard real quickly, let's go to your hometown, a

531
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 2: school that's loaded with receivers and running backs. It'll be

532
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 2: in the NFL. I've got a NYE on Will Howard

533
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 2: at fifteen to one. If Ryan Dick can get him clicking,

534
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 2: he might put up some real numbers. And if Ohio

535
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 2: State can win, do you think Will Howard has a

536
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 2: chance to sneak in there?

537
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 6: Here's my problem with betting anybody in Ohio State. There's

538
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 6: just so many different options. I mean, you have probably

539
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 6: the best one to two punch at running back in

540
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 6: the entire country, Henderson and Quinn Schawn Judkins. You do

541
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 6: still have elite wide receivers Buka and even the true

542
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 6: freshman five star Jeremiah Smith. I I don't see those

543
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 6: guys are all having big seasons. We'll split the boat

544
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 6: a little bit. I'm not a Will Howard guy to

545
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 6: begin with, and if you don't believe me, I'm not

546
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 6: sure he would have been a slam dunk to even

547
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 6: be the starting quarterback at Kansas State.

548
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 2: This sure as possible. It's possible. Shador Sanders, I know

549
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 2: he pisses a lot of people off because he won't

550
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 2: shut up, but at forty to one. He's a sleeper

551
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 2: in some circles. Not for me, but your thoughts.

552
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm not a fan. I just don't think they

553
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 6: see the heisens real simple too. Obviously, it's become a

554
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 6: quarterback award for the most part, ninety percent of the

555
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 6: time it's securit quarterbacks winning it. But you also have

556
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 6: to be on a national title contending team average wins

557
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 6: in the regular season. For the guys that in the

558
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 6: last twenty years in the Heisman eleven Colorado I just

559
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 6: got done seeing is going to fight for their life

560
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 6: to make a bowl. Shadur's not going to He's not

561
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 6: forget winning and he's not going to be anywhere near

562
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 6: New York with a six and six record.

563
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 2: Brad as always a baffo performance, greatly appreciated. No one

564
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,360
Speaker 2: is better prepared you even take trips to these schools.

565
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 2: Bottom line is this like to get you back on

566
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 2: as we get closer to midseason and things start to

567
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 2: take shape.

568
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 6: Hey, thanks for having me as always and I look

569
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 6: forward to talking to me in the future.

570
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 2: Thank you. Brad. That is Brad Powers Brad Power Sports.

571
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 2: As you can see, he is absolutely a college football guru.

572
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 2: Follow him at Brad Power Sports and of course follow

573
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 2: him at Twitter at Brad Powers seven. All Right, the

574
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 2: USA versus South Sudan was not the only basketball game

575
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,439
Speaker 2: that'll be talked about for a while. As I mentioned

576
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 2: during the midnight hour, well, the WNBA All Star Game

577
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 2: had multiple storylines and did it absolutely live up to

578
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 2: the hike hype. Give it up to Orique ogin Biwally.

579
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 2: There's a backstory there. This was fun. We'll talk about

580
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 2: it coming up, but first we go to our guy,

581
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 2: the chef, Kevin Wyren with the latest.

582
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 8: Yeah, the US Women's Olympic basketball team losing to the

583
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,080

585
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 8: Rique Oganbawally scoring thirty four points, all of them in

586
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 8: the second half. Angel Reaese twelve points, eleven rebounds. She

587
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 8: had herself a double double. Caitlyn Clark with ten assists.

588
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 8: The US women's squad will play a tune up against

589
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 8: Germany on Tuesday. As for the man, of course, it

590
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 8: was a very nerve racking win for the Americans as

591
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 8: they beat South Sudan one to one two one hundred.

592
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 8: Lebron James on the layup late to secure the win.

593
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 8: But the Americans they were down double digit sixteen at

594
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 8: one point in the first half, and they'll have one

595
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 8: final exhibition matchup on Monday against Germany, and that can

596
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 8: be seen over on Fox. Cavaliers giving Evan Mobley a

597
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 8: five year max rookie extension. It's gonna be worth two

598
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 8: hundred and twenty four million dollars. And in Major League Baseball,

599
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,240

606
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 9: Games in a row.

607
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,200

618
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 2: second half, breakoff performance, the beauty of what took place

619
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 2: Saturday night. And I'm very curious to see what the

620
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 2: ratings are going to be because it was Madame Tussad's

621
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: for basketball. You had Andy Myer's there, and Cheryl Miller

622
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 2: and the great ovations. I will tell you Andrew Reese

623
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 2: is Dennis Rodman. I got to know Dennis Robin. I'm

624
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 2: telling you right now, the way she fights for rebounds,

625
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 2: her typical double double. Caitlin Clark had tennisists. But Erique

626
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 2: Oga Malwaally, she to me, is the biggest story. Why

627
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 2: because what's been the real story of the NBA this

628
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 2: year the selection of the national team and this knucklehead

629
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 2: coach who just comes off like thirty yards of garlic

630
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,800
Speaker 2: when someone tells her to have a nice day. She

631
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 2: you know, Oga mawally was. I guess you could say

632
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 2: a snub, but you got to remember from the team.

633
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 2: But you got to remember that she withdrew from consideration

634
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 2: a couple of months ago, she says, because I don't

635
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: like the political aspect of what's going on here. Count

636
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 2: me out, and you think they could use her. By

637
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 2: the way, the last time the All Star has played

638
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 2: the Olympic team was twenty twenty one, and the All

639
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 2: Stars won that game as well. But everybody watching this

640
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 2: contest Saturday night, we were the winners. They were all winners,

641
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 2: but the fans were the winners. You actually saw a

642
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 2: professional sporting event. Stars play defense, tough defense, physical defense,

643
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 2: even some hard files passing lanes they closed, they were

644
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 2: jumped for steals. Team USA even broke out a full

645
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 2: court press in the second quarter. And what they showed was, Hey,

646
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 2: you Olympic teams, you think you're gonna face us, this

647
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,719
Speaker 2: is what you're gonna be getting. It wasn't a stupid

648
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: layup line in the NBA All Star Game. Both teams

649
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 2: actually ran actual offensive sense. You had screens, you had

650
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,719
Speaker 2: pick and rolls, you had postuffs. They didn't take turns

651
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 2: trying to show off for loun strees or do something stupid.

652
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 2: Although Caitlin Clark said I'll launch a bomb soon before halftime.

653
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 2: That was on the mic. They caught that. Girls were

654
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 2: miked up, and you know, Caitlyn Clark and Injuries got

655
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 2: huge ovations. Britney Griner and Diana Tarassi got huge ovations.

656
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 2: Girls were interviewed from the bench. They were having fun.

657
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 2: Brenna Stewart was sensational, thirty one points and ten rebounds.

658
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 2: Asia Wilson terrific twenty two points and six rebounds. Even

659
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: Diana Trossi, you can call her forty two years of old,

660
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 2: forty two years old all you want. He had fourteen

661
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 2: points and six rebounds and five assists in her hometown

662
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 2: Phoenix crown ate it up. It was an outstanding event.

663
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 2: It was an outstanding All Star weekend, and the rookies

664
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,959
Speaker 2: showed up and showed out. Listen, Angel Reese and Caitlin

665
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 2: Clark are the best thing to ever happened to the WNBA. Ever.

666
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 2: Remember when Bird and Magic came upon the seed in

667
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 2: seventy nine, the Fall of seventy nine. Did you know

668
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 2: in the decade of the eighties, there wasn't a single

669
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 2: NBA finals played that didn't include, or involve or feature

670
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 2: either Larry Bird or Magic Johnson every single finals game,

671
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 2: every single finals series in the eighties. Look it up.

672
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty was I'll just do this off the top

673
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 2: of my head. Nineteen eighty were the Lakers in Philadelphia,

674
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 2: Magic's famous game with the triple double. Eighty one was

675
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 2: Boss to Houston, eighty two were the Lakers, and I

676
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 2: believe Philly. Eighty three were the Lakers in Philly again.

677
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 2: Eighty four was Boston, eighty five was bought right on

678
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 2: down the line, and the Lakers in Boston faced each

679
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 2: other three times. So this boat's extremely well for the

680
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 2: future of the NBA. But for one night, we got

681
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 2: to see a real throwback. Yes, it was a genuine

682
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,120
Speaker 2: All Star game with heated competition where both sides really

683
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 2: wanted to win, and people are going to be talking

684
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 2: about this. Speaking of something else people are talking about,

Speaker 2: watch pretty much starts minute one and every week people

723
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 2: can't wait to put in their two cents. And I

724
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,720
Speaker 2: will tell you it's one of the more difficult awards

725
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 2: to predict because the favorite almost never wins. It never

726
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 2: wins it back in We'll give you some examples. Just

727
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 2: eight years ago, there was a young kid out of Louisville.

728
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 2: He was one hundred to one at the beginning of

729
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 2: the season. His name was Lamar Jackson. He won the

730
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy Devonte Smith two years later, a wide receiver,

731
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 2: diminutive wide receiver out of Alabama who they said he

732
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 2: was too small in high school to play. He was

733
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,799
Speaker 2: one hundred to one. He won the Heisman Trophy. You

734
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 2: may remember a kid that couldn't start at LSU because

735
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 2: you lost the job to an incoming guy named Justin Fields.

736
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 2: But he's been to a Super Bowl already. He did

737
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 2: pretty well at LSU back in twenty nineteen. He won

738
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 2: the Heisman at forty to one. His name was Joe Burrow.

739
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 2: Of course, last year, Jaden Daniels was ten to one

740
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 2: right on down the line. Derek Hendry was twenty five

741
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 2: to one back in twenty fifteen. It's hard to predict,

742
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 2: but people are going to talk about it a lot

743
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 2: this year. I'm wondering kind of a little bit because

744
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,920
Speaker 2: it's an offensive award and you've got players unless they

745
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 2: stumble badly. Dylan Gabriel at eight to one at Oregon.

746
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:00,200
Speaker 2: You saw what bow Nicks did last year. He was

747
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 2: okay at Auburn. He was much better at Oregon. He

748
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 2: was the twelfth overall pick in the NFL Draft. He

749
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: was a Heisman finalist. That really kind of bodes well

750
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 2: for Dylan Gabriel, who did very well with Oklahoma. He

751
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 2: could be in for a monster year, and the Ducks

752
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 2: head coach Dan Lanning. He's a maestro when it comes

753
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 2: to developing talent and acquiring talent. Gabriel comes to Oregon,

754
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 2: He's already got fifteen thousand passing yards and one hundred

755
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 2: and fifty two touchdowns. This is his third school, started

756
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 2: at ECF and then went to Oklahoma. He's very much

757
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 2: in the short list of the conversations, as is Carson Beck,

758
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 2: who's a clear cut first round quarterback. He's returning Georgia,

759
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 2: viewed as a potential number one pick. Helped Georgia to

760
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 2: a thirteen to one record in his first season as

761
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 2: a starter. He's a very good pocket passer under his tutelage.

762
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: Last year, Georgia scored the fifth most points per game

763
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 2: in the country at forty one. He was also one

764
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 2: of the six quarterbacks last year to have an average

765
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 2: pass of eight point five more yards and a just

766
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:03,359
Speaker 2: a completion rate of seventy minimum three hundred drop backs.

767
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:07,600
Speaker 2: That's big time. That's big time. Quinn Ewers. Brad's right

768
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 2: about quinn Ewers. He's hit and miss, but it's possible

769
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 2: Texas could do something crazy with quinn Ewers. He's ten

770
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 2: to one. Look the Longhorne came into one play again

771
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,319
Speaker 2: into the National Championship game, but that wasn't one of

772
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 2: his best efforts.

773
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 6: Uh.

774
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 2: He didn't have a lot of big time throws last

775
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 2: year and they've lost a lot of offensive talent. Shudor

776
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 2: Sanders is gonna get a lot of talk. You watch

777
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 2: how much they promote him. I'm not sure he's a sleeper.

778
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 2: They call him a sleeper, but he is forty to

779
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 2: one if you're feeling sausty. They were four and eight

780
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,359
Speaker 2: last season. But Shardor Sanders is a legitimate quarterback. But

781
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 2: they're gonna have to win, all right. This isn't you know,

782
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 2: like Notre Dame in the fifties or whatever, whether you

783
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 2: could have a losing record in your quarterback could win

784
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 2: the Heisman Trophy. You're gonna have to win. But these

785
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,560
Speaker 2: are the names you're gonna hear, and you'll hear some

786
00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 2: Jalen Milroll in there. I think you hear some. Will

787
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 2: Howard Jackson. Dart is already getting a lot of play.

788
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 2: Riley Leonard, you know it's hard to win. The hes

789
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 2: been at Notre Dame. But if they can light it

790
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 2: up there because it is you know, you do have

791
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 2: to pile up statistics right, so it'll be fun to watch.

792
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 2: Coming up, we talk with Mark Madina, our NBA guru.

793
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 2: Steve Balmer had a lot to say about his clippers.

794
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the Olympic team and Russell Westbrook and

795
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 2: much much more. So. Keep it locked. You're listening to

805
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 2: it's mid July. Summer is raging, pant races are raging,

806
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 2: the NFL is near. But we're talking basketball because it

807
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 2: is very much in the news. It's midnight, it's Saturday night.

808
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:18,839
Speaker 2: It's that time, Mark Medina Medina Magics. We do this

809
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,399
Speaker 2: every Saturday night at midnight. We do it fifty two

810
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,040
Speaker 2: weeks out of the ear. For a good reason. There

811
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 2: is always news. Mark. Let me start with a topic

812
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 2: that I really didn't think we talked much about tonight,

813
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 2: and it's the game Saturday against South Sudan. And let

814
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 2: me start by saying this, if someone had the audacity

815
00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:41,319
Speaker 2: to say that Steve Kurs should be fired, I think

816
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 2: he should get a raise. I'm not being funny. He's

817
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 2: got to manage this. This island of misfit toys who

818
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 2: come and go as they please, turn it off, turn

819
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 2: it on when they please. And if not for his

820
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 2: rotations today that got them back into the game of

821
00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,879
Speaker 2: his reserves, they might have gotten beat your thoughts.

822
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,280
Speaker 7: I don't think you should have get fired now Rays

823
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 7: who knows. But the bottom line is it's hard to

824
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 7: really criticize any coaching decisions when your roster is, you know,

825
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 7: arguab with the twelve best players in the world, right,

826
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 7: so it really falls on the players. But to your point, yes,

827
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 7: he emptied the bench in the second half and that

828
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 7: really fueled the run. Obviously, Lebron James made that game

829
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 7: winning laid up, he played out of his mind and

830
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 7: crunch time, same thing with Steph Curry. Those really the

831
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 7: bench that helped set the tone. And I think, look,

832
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 7: I know it's not sexy and people like hot takes here,

833
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,319
Speaker 7: but South Sudan's an actually really good team. They didn't

834
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,720
Speaker 7: come out of nowhere. Obviously, the US shouldn't have struggled

835
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 7: the way it did and they should have dominated. But

836
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 7: I think that this really opened the eyes of the

837
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,760
Speaker 7: US of this that Joel Embiid isn't the right starter,

838
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,359
Speaker 7: and I understand why he started. The idea is they

839
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 7: need length. You know, FOEVA is a physical game. South

840
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 7: Sudan has some bigs. Serbia has some biggs and nicoley Jokic,

841
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 7: but he hasn't just he hasn't adjusted well. And I

842
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 7: think that moving forward, it's likely that Anthony Davis and

843
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 7: bam Adebayo will be starting. And you know, when you

844
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 7: look at this game, that's probably problem solved. So yeah,

845
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 7: it's a good test. Should have been a blowout, but

846
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 7: I think that moving forward they won't be as vulnerable,

847
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:27,359
Speaker 7: you know, and.

848
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 2: I think they should just send Joel and beat home.

849
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 2: They don't need them. Bringing Donovan Klinging or somebody. I

850
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,839
Speaker 2: don't care. I would say this though, and you are

851
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 2: right about South Sudan top credit to their coaching staff,

852
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,879
Speaker 2: but you've got four guys who've only played in you know,

853
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,919
Speaker 2: even played it in an NBA game. And it was clear

854
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 2: to me, Mark, I've been doing this a long time.

855
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 2: Our guys took the floor tonight and said, or this

856
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 2: afternoon and said, well, actually it was night in London.

857
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,360
Speaker 2: It was eight thirty at night in London. The bottom

858
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 2: line is this. They said, now we got to light

859
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 2: work today, We'll just mail it in and they did,

860
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 2: and then when they needed to at the end, they

861
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 2: played desperate. They applied defensive pressure, they out athleted, they

862
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 2: did what they needed to do, and while the bench

863
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,240
Speaker 2: got them in the game, Lebron actually became the adult

864
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,839
Speaker 2: in the room. I there's not a dot in my mind.

865
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 2: They're gonna win the gold medal. Okay, I just let's

866
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 2: just put this to rest. Let's stop with the crazy

867
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 2: hot takes. This is the NBA. Now, they come and

868
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:24,799
Speaker 2: go as they please. And today they took the night

869
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 2: off and give it up to a game sud An

870
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 2: team who's only ranked thirty third in the world's I mean,

871
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 2: let's not get too much credit. They're not gonna make

872
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 2: it to the metal round. Mark.

873
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, here's the thing with South and I don't

874
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 7: think they're going to make it to the medal round.

875
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:42,319
Speaker 7: But again, this is a good program. You know, Louldang

876
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 7: former NBA player, he's overseen it. They you know, they

877
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 7: don't have elite NBA town, but they actually have NBA

878
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 7: players on the team and Carlic John's winning, Gabriel. They

879
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 7: have seven international players that are played in respective the league.

880
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 7: So what I'm getting at this team isn't coming out

881
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 7: of nowhere. They're not a laughing stock. They're respectable. But

882
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:08,439
Speaker 7: to your point, it's USA. It's got the best team

883
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 7: in the world. And I think I agree with you

884
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 7: one hundred percent. What their vulnerabilities were A few things. One,

885
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 7: you know they tree as an exhibition it technically is.

886
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 7: Two Steve Kerr is looking at this as let's figure

887
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 7: out rotations and try to win the game. And three

888
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:28,880
Speaker 7: they let their guard down as soon as they saw

889
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 7: that they could lose this game, you know, with how

890
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 7: poorly they're shooting from the field and how well you know,

891
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 7: Sue Danne was I think sixty percent in the first half.

892
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 7: They played to win the game in the second half,

893
00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 7: so Steve Kerr, he emptied the bench. You know, Anthony

894
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 7: Edwards beam out of bio, Anthony Davis, Jason Tatum, Derek White.

895
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 7: They led the comeback and then Lebron you know, went

896
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 7: on a tear. You know, twenty three point six rebound,

897
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 7: six assists, instant game winning layup, Steph Curry hit a three,

898
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 7: Drew Holiday made some good defensive stop. So yeah, it

899
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 7: was classic almost Golden State Warriors during their dynasty years

900
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 7: where they're down at halftime. They flipped the switch and

901
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 7: then they showed how good they really.

902
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 2: Are well and they were one to twelve from behind

903
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,439
Speaker 2: the arc. They turned the ball over a ton. Yeah,

904
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 2: I'll make a quick prediction. We'll get off this. Steve

905
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,319
Speaker 2: Kerr is a good dude. I really believe that his

906
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 2: offense has been mainly based on the off ball movement

907
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 2: of staff. I think they're going to simplify the offense,

908
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 2: go out and play tenacious defense from here on out.

909
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 2: You'll see you'll see what the US they can do.

910
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:33,879
Speaker 2: That's just my quick prediction. Do you disagree with any

911
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 2: of that.

912
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,399
Speaker 7: No, I think they're being calling cards defense and as

913
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 7: far as offense goes, yeah, they want to move the ball.

914
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 7: You know, they have a lot of talent obviously, so

915
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:46,920
Speaker 7: that they want to be multi faster and there's no

916
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 7: need to have everyone, you know, go ice so heavy

917
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 7: when they have so much depth. But to your point,

918
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,399
Speaker 7: I know it'd being a little fasicious. The reason why

919
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 7: you know, joelbe is not going to be sent home.

920
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 7: But like the practical part is that even through a

921
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:03,839
Speaker 7: struggle in the Foba game, he need length and so

922
00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,360
Speaker 7: they need as many bigs as possible. He needs to

923
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 7: play better. But you know, even if he is the

924
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,879
Speaker 7: third center, there's still going to be value in that

925
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,080
Speaker 7: in the sense of if Bam and ad get the

926
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 7: foul trouble or they just need depth and they're gonna

927
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:21,600
Speaker 7: need them. There's a reason why after they fell short

928
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 7: in the World Cup last year they lacked length, they

929
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,359
Speaker 7: you know, recruited Joe Embi to say, hey, don't play

930
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 7: for a native Cameroon, don't play for France or have

931
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 7: dual siiens to play with us. They wouldn't have done that.

932
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,359
Speaker 7: Four press that they weren't aware that they need bigs.

933
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 2: Well, that's all fair, and you know, to set the

934
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 2: record straight, last September they lost to Canada in overtime,

935
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 2: so it's not like they need a complete overhaul. And

936
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,319
Speaker 2: of course I'm joking about the embiid thing. You know, Mark,

937
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,839
Speaker 2: I can't do this segment without at least with at

938
00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 2: least three smart ass comments there. But I do mean

939
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 2: what I say, right, You do twenty hits a week

940
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 2: on this network and they all start to sound the same.

941
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,120
Speaker 2: I don't want to sound the same. Mark. By the way,

942
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 2: we're talking to Mark Medina Medina Magic every Saturday night

943
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 2: at midnight on The Bernie Frattle Show. I'm glad you

944
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 2: wrote about Steve Bomber and his take on the Clippers

945
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 2: as he moved into their new arena next year. I

946
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 2: like Steve Bomber a lot. I actually genuinely root for

947
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:23,160
Speaker 2: the Clippers one time with the sports Gods. But when

948
00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 2: he tells you that most people would be salivating to

949
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:30,799
Speaker 2: have Kawhi and James next year, yeah, maybe Kawhi the

950
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 2: version back in Toronto back in twenty nineteen. Did he

951
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 2: when it comes to Harden, did he mean salivating or

952
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:37,800
Speaker 2: throwing up in his mouth? Because you're winning.

953
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 1: Nothing with that guy.

954
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that that same will be more accurate,

955
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 7: you know, five seven years ago. But you know, I

956
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 7: think in reality, with the Clippers, they had no other choice.

957
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 7: I mean, they don't want to be irrelevant do a

958
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 7: tear down, especially when they're you know, gonna start next

959
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,240
Speaker 7: season into it Delba And this is like the best

960
00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 7: arena I've ever been and it has all the bells

961
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 7: and whistles, you know, this huge video board grabbing go food.

962
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 7: They're building a lot of amenities to make sure there's

963
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 7: a good fan atmosphere, but those are all bells and whistles.

964
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 7: They need to have a good product on the floor,

965
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:18,400
Speaker 7: and so you know, he's trying to sell something and

966
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 7: there is a realistic pathway not for them to win

967
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 7: a championship, but hey, they at least make the playoffs,

968
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:27,680
Speaker 7: and especially because of them having the arena, they want

969
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,400
Speaker 7: to have a team that can at least make the

970
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 7: playoffs and they're not just starting over from scratch and

971
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 7: so look, they're not championship contenders. It was disappointing that

972
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 7: they lost Paul George, but they really had no other choice.

973
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,920
Speaker 7: I mean, they're not going to outbid the Sixers for

974
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,960
Speaker 7: a player that has been unreliable from a health standpoint.

975
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 7: Even though he's a great two way player, he's inconsistent

976
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 7: in that respect. And they did the best that they

977
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 7: could given the circumstances with getting you know, guys like

978
00:49:56,480 --> 00:50:01,280
Speaker 7: Derek Jones and Nicholas Patoom. You know, they have Terrence

979
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,799
Speaker 7: Man who'll have a bigger role next season. They got

980
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 7: Chris Dunn, who's a better defender and a better playmaker

981
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,920
Speaker 7: than Russell Westbrook. But you know, this is all good

982
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,280
Speaker 7: to make the playoffs and be a first round threat,

983
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 7: and that's it.

984
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, speaking of a good product on the floor,

985
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 2: I think very well deserving. Evan Mobley gets a five year,

986
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 2: two hundred and twenty four million dollar maximum rookie contract extension.

987
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 2: This is a guy who's a seven footer and elite defender.

988
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,320
Speaker 2: I trade him for an Embeid right now to take you.

989
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,319
Speaker 2: You can't tell me he couldn't help this Olympic team.

990
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 2: He was I think third and defensive player of the

991
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 2: year their last year of the year before speak to that.

992
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 2: The Cleveland Cavaliers lock him up. That's a team with

993
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:45,840
Speaker 2: a good product on the floor.

994
00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, look, he'll be in the Olympics in twenty

995
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,440
Speaker 7: twenty eight. I mean that's not official, but that's my prediction.

996
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 2: Sure.

997
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 7: His rookie season, the Cavaliers were talking about this is

998
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 7: they reminded him of Anthony and Davis, but with better health.

999
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,840
Speaker 7: And now Anthony Davis has improved in that. But the

1000
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 7: idea of a great two way big that is a

1001
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:11,680
Speaker 7: room protector, is a dual threat offensively in the post,

1002
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 7: and you know, as a facilitator. So these are all

1003
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 7: good signs. I mean they you know, made a lot

1004
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:24,120
Speaker 7: of off season moves already with you know Canning, JB.

1005
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 7: Bicker Staff, and we can debate all you want on

1006
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,759
Speaker 7: does he really deserve the blame. You know a lot

1007
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 7: of it had to do with injuries, but this is

1008
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 7: the NBA. The coach is the always the first one

1009
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,759
Speaker 7: to get let go and they feel like they didn't

1010
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 7: reach their potential. So the fact that they signed Evan

1011
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,520
Speaker 7: Mobile to a MAX extension is a really good sign

1012
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:48,880
Speaker 7: because he needs him and Donovan Mitchell to carry the

1013
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:52,000
Speaker 7: day and you know Donovan Mitchell is going to agree

1014
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 7: with that extension as well.

1015
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 2: The fun thing about this segment we covered all speaking

1016
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:59,759
Speaker 2: of signing. So, and you mentioned Chris Dunn going to

1017
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,879
Speaker 2: the Ards, which I think is an excellent acquisition. He's

1018
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,880
Speaker 2: part of his sign and trade deal. Well, Russell Westbrook

1019
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 2: also a part of his sign and trade deal. Is

1020
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:11,440
Speaker 2: that official? Russell Westbrook heading to the Denver Nuggets? And

1021
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:12,840
Speaker 2: what the hell of the Nuggets thinking?

1022
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 7: Yeah? Well, twice already the Utah Jazz said fair farewell

1023
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:22,880
Speaker 7: to Russell Westbrook without even him ever playing in a

1024
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:23,800
Speaker 7: game or wearing.

1025
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 2: A Jazz uniform.

1026
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,880
Speaker 7: Maybe it's good enough for a video tribute. We'll see.

1027
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:33,040
Speaker 7: What are the Nuggets thinking? Come on, they put video

1028
00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:35,319
Speaker 7: tributes for everyone these I know, I was.

1029
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 2: Thinking, you sound like me. No, maybe they could hang

1030
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 2: his jersey and the rafters too.

1031
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 7: Go ahead, Hey, I think you know what. I think

1032
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,239
Speaker 7: that's up for discussion. What are the Nuggets thinking? It

1033
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 7: sounds like you don't like this move? I think that.

1034
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:52,719
Speaker 2: No, he's basically replaced KCP. Right, Am I wrong? Or right?

1035
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 6: Right?

1036
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:53,319
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1037
00:52:53,360 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 7: I mean, look, the ideal is that the Nuggets kept KCP.

1038
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 7: They kept Bruce Brown laugh season. But the new CBA

1039
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 7: doesn't allow teams to be overspending, even if they have

1040
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 7: a team owner. That's willing to absorb the luxury attack.

1041
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 7: So am I enamor with the move. No, do I

1042
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 7: think it's a good move. Yes, because of the practicality here.

1043
00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:20,920
Speaker 7: They need some roster depth to relieve some fresher off

1044
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:25,080
Speaker 7: Jamal Murray, Nikole Jokic, Michael Porter Junior. I think they

1045
00:53:25,080 --> 00:53:27,680
Speaker 7: have a good coach, Michael Malone. All those elements in

1046
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,359
Speaker 7: play will leave me to believe that they don't have

1047
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 7: more success with Russell Westbrook the same way they did

1048
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:38,640
Speaker 7: with the Clippers than they did than Russell Westbrook had

1049
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:43,880
Speaker 7: with the Lakers. But I will say this, remember how

1050
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,879
Speaker 7: Russell Westbrook's time with the Clippers ended. He didn't play

1051
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 7: a lot of the playoffs. He didn't show a lot

1052
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 7: of his value in the playoffs. So even all this,

1053
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 7: through all this rhetoric about yeah, the Clippers really valued him,

1054
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 7: and you know, he felt more at home there than

1055
00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 7: the Lakers action spoke out in the word. So I

1056
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 7: think in the short term it's good, especially for the

1057
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 7: regular season. They can release some of the pressure. But

1058
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,880
Speaker 7: you know, I think the ultimate test is going to

1059
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:15,200
Speaker 7: be will Russell Westbrook finally accept this is where he's

1060
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,640
Speaker 7: at in his career? And I don't think the Nuggets

1061
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 7: are going to bat an eye and treat him the

1062
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 7: same way the Clippers did. So again, I got your skepticism,

1063
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 7: I share, but they really had no other alternatives.

1064
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 2: Mark, you laid that out perfectly, and this is why

1065
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 2: I enjoined the segment so much. You hit right to

1066
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 2: the apex of the issue. What does Denver get? Well,

1067
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 2: the average about four points a game in twenty minutes

1068
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 2: last year per game. He did play some good individual

1069
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,520
Speaker 2: defense at times when he decided he wanted to. But

1070
00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 2: here's the sixty four dollars question, and we all know

1071
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 2: it's against a lot of practice psychology without a license.

1072
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 2: How's Westbrook going to feel coming off the bench? And

1073
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 2: how long is it before you know he becomes the

1074
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 2: turd in the punch bowl.

1075
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 7: Well, he's come off the bench and it's gotten used

1076
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 7: to him. So he'll embrace it. He'll say all the

1077
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:06,520
Speaker 7: right things. He'll be a regular season contributor. I think

1078
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 7: that what you're going to see is he has the

1079
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:13,839
Speaker 7: excited energy to do whatever it takes just to get

1080
00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 7: the foot in the door. And then one stat wears off. Yes,

1081
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:21,720
Speaker 7: all these questions that we have, it'll reach its full bloom.

1082
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 7: But I think that because the Nuggets are, you know,

1083
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 7: two seasons removed from championship. Michael Malone's one of the

1084
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 7: best coaches in the NBA, as well as what Tyler

1085
00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 7: was with the Clippers. Any frustrated feelings that he has,

1086
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 7: honestly doesn't matter. So you know, his role is going

1087
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,319
Speaker 7: to be what's best for the team. And again, it's

1088
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,879
Speaker 7: not like their sign amax contract or sign the must

1089
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,279
Speaker 7: a year deal, So it is what it is. I

1090
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:53,000
Speaker 7: don't think that he's going to be someone who's going

1091
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 7: to carry them in the playoffs. But you know, even

1092
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,840
Speaker 7: if he's a regular season contributor, that's good because that

1093
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,799
Speaker 7: can help the win total, help the playoff seeding, as

1094
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 7: well as relief pressure off their main championship corps guys.

1095
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,880
Speaker 2: Well, and I'll be honest, and I really mean this sincerely,

1096
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:13,359
Speaker 2: is somehow Westbrook lasts this season and Denver wins a

1097
00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 2: ring and Russell Westbrook gets a ring. I'll be happy

1098
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,279
Speaker 2: for the guy because no one could deny he's a

1099
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:23,000
Speaker 2: world class athlete. No one could deny he plays hard.

1100
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 2: But going back to his days at UCLA, it's always

1101
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,279
Speaker 2: left a lot to be desired and he has no

1102
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 2: winning attached to his name. So if he wraps things

1103
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,279
Speaker 2: up in Denver with a ring this year, I would

1104
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 2: be happy for the guy.

1105
00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 7: Yeah. Well, look, I mean I'm not wording four or

1106
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 7: more against him, Like I'm just calling ol s it

1107
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,680
Speaker 7: and doing my job. I think if he doesn't do

1108
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:47,440
Speaker 7: himself any to service with how you know, he makes

1109
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:52,520
Speaker 7: things unreasonably hard. You know, he competes hard, and that's great,

1110
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 7: but he doesn't always compete smart. And he has adjusted

1111
00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 7: to his role. But then you know, as time goes

1112
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 7: on on, I think the feelings of his value as

1113
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:07,240
Speaker 7: a former All Star and you know, triple double machine

1114
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 7: and all that comes into effect, and he's just he's

1115
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,919
Speaker 7: not the same player he was today. The modern NBA

1116
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 7: has exposed him because he's not a good shooter, he's

1117
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,880
Speaker 7: not a great defender, and so he has shown an

1118
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 7: ability to adapt to his role. He hasn't always shown

1119
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,959
Speaker 7: a willingness to accept that role at least long term.

1120
00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:30,120
Speaker 7: Short terms, he can do it, but it requires the

1121
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:34,600
Speaker 7: right team around him to shield his weaknesses and long term,

1122
00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 7: eventually the frustrations always get the best of them.

1123
00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough, And just to maintain my journalistic integrity,

1124
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:44,840
Speaker 2: and I actually have a sheep skin as a journalist. Look,

1125
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 2: I'm not rooting for him to succeed or fail, but

1126
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,400
Speaker 2: if the story has written and it ends that way,

1127
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,360
Speaker 2: you would be happy for it. Finally, can't finish this

1128
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 2: segment without the referencing Bronnie James. And I've covered enough

1129
00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:02,200
Speaker 2: summer leagues to know that because he didn't play today,

1130
00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,200
Speaker 2: that's just standard operating procedures. So what nothing to see here.

1131
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,919
Speaker 2: But what I really want to know is behind closed doors,

1132
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 2: Let's say his name wasn't Bronnie James. Let's see it

1133
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:13,880
Speaker 2: was Eddie Gazinski. He's six foot two and he's built

1134
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 2: like a point guard. But he can't bring the ball

1135
00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 2: up the floor. He doesn't have the ball handling ability.

1136
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:22,120
Speaker 2: He's not going to be a playmaker, distributor or a facilitator.

1137
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:24,600
Speaker 2: The Lakers have shown us that that's where he is

1138
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 2: right now. He's not going to have to be a

1139
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 2: shooting guard. He'll spend the season in South Bay and

1140
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,240
Speaker 2: hopefully he gets on the floor with Lebron at least once,

1141
00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:35,480
Speaker 2: so we can achieve that dream. But forget his name's Bronnie.

1142
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 2: From the aspect of him as a prospect, his physical ability,

1143
00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 2: his resume, his makeup. What's really the Lakers plans for

1144
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:46,440
Speaker 2: him in terms of trying to develop a guy that

1145
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:48,440
Speaker 2: might help him win basketball games.

1146
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:51,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean he's going to help the South Bale

1147
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,000
Speaker 7: Lakers win basketball games. I mean most of his time

1148
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:56,080
Speaker 7: is going to be in the G League. To your point,

1149
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 7: if his name wasn't Brownie James, I think, you know,

1150
00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:02,120
Speaker 7: in fairness, spade of fade, he wouldn't have gotten drafted

1151
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 7: by the Lakers. He would have been signed with some

1152
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 7: team as an undirected free agency, so he still would

1153
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 7: have played Summer League, and so I think it cuts

1154
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 7: both ways. He would have gotten drafted, he wouldn't have

1155
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 7: that guarantee contract, but there still would have been a

1156
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 7: pathway that, Hey, he has enough to get a flyer

1157
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,920
Speaker 7: in Summer League and a training camp invite and play

1158
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 7: in the G League and so with that there is

1159
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:29,000
Speaker 7: a pathway for him to have a long NBA career

1160
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 7: as a role player. The positive attributes that he has

1161
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 7: great attitude, very resilient, professional team player, has good work habits, coachable,

1162
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:44,920
Speaker 7: you know, to your point, he doesn't have a defined

1163
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,440
Speaker 7: skill set. He's not a great shooter as we saw.

1164
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 7: You know, his ball handling is okay, his defense is okay.

1165
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:55,880
Speaker 7: But I think you know, JJ Reddick is correct when

1166
00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:58,960
Speaker 7: he's saying that, you know, Brownie can really lean on

1167
00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 7: becoming a good defender and being the intangibles guy. I

1168
01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 7: think it's a bit much to say, Hey, b lou

1169
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:09,680
Speaker 7: Dort be Drew Holliday. Those players are elite. But I

1170
01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:12,880
Speaker 7: do understand the idea of lou Dort that he wasn't

1171
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 7: drafted and all that. But I'm under no illusion that

1172
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:21,040
Speaker 7: Brownie is going to eventually become an all NBA defender.

1173
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:24,320
Speaker 7: But I think it is very realistic and it's likely

1174
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:28,080
Speaker 7: that he's going to cement himself having an NBA career

1175
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:31,400
Speaker 7: as a role player. But in the short term, how

1176
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 7: that happens is he plays a lot of his time

1177
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:38,000
Speaker 7: in the G League and he's been willing to do that.

1178
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:40,880
Speaker 7: And really so what we've seen is that the leverage

1179
01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:45,120
Speaker 7: play was really about gaining a guarantee contract, and you know,

1180
01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:48,000
Speaker 7: the Lakers can get some criticism for that if you want,

1181
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 7: but the reality is she was a fifty to fifth

1182
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 7: pick and it could have gone somewhere else. So it's

1183
01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,320
Speaker 7: you know, really, the only casualty is they didn't have

1184
01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:01,600
Speaker 7: a roster space to sign a veteran m guy. But really,

1185
01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 7: what impact is that actually going to make?

1186
01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:09,000
Speaker 2: Mark? Great? Stuff? As always? I know you're a basketball historian.

1187
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 2: I was on the phone two days ago with a

1188
01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:14,480
Speaker 2: good buddy of mine from Detroit. We both covered the

1189
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:18,360
Speaker 2: two thousand and four Pistons who beat the Lakers in five.

1190
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,640
Speaker 2: I'm sure you remember that series. And my friend said this,

1191
01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 2: I won't mention his name, but he's been around a

1192
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 2: long time. He goes, we think Briannie could be the

1193
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 2: next brook Steppee. Maybe he can be if he reaches

1194
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:30,920
Speaker 2: his ceiling, he could be brook Steppie. You know who

1195
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:31,600
Speaker 2: brook Steppy was?

1196
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:31,800
Speaker 10: Right?

1197
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,800
Speaker 7: Uh, hey, I can google him. You have to go

1198
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:38,080
Speaker 7: to the basketball historian nugget here.

1199
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:42,880
Speaker 2: Do well, I'll tell you why. Just go ahead and

1200
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 2: google him because brooks Steppee did play in the NBA

1201
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 2: and we saw him and he was limited. He was limited,

1202
01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 2: let's just put it that way. But he did play

1203
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,680
Speaker 2: in the NBA all the time. He was six foot five.

1204
01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:58,960
Speaker 2: My friend was being a smart alec, but you know

1205
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 2: that's the kind of production. Oh look, let's just leave

1206
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 2: it there. I said that withhold final judgment for one year.

1207
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 2: Although I do have opinions, let's let this play out.

1208
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 2: The one thing I will say about Bronnie James, even

1209
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:13,120
Speaker 2: after going over for fifteen and all of his failures

1210
01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 2: and look like he's in over his head, his body language,

1211
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:19,640
Speaker 2: his countenance, his facial demeanor, his interaction with his teammates.

1212
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:23,080
Speaker 2: He was very measured. He was very respectable. He impressed

1213
01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 2: me with his demeanor, and I mean that. So let's

1214
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 2: see what happens, and we'll see what happens in the

1215
01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:31,440
Speaker 2: coming week. Mark as we see this every time next Saturday,

1216
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:33,680
Speaker 2: who knows what the storylines are going to be. They

1217
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 2: continue to outdo themselves.

1218
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:39,080
Speaker 7: Without a doubt and look like at all seriousness. Sarah,

1219
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:40,280
Speaker 7: I know we have a lot of fun, but we

1220
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,880
Speaker 7: also have a lot of good intel. You know, an

1221
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 7: executive before the draft was insistent that, hey, he doesn't

1222
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:49,720
Speaker 7: know what Bronnie James's ceiling is, but those intangibles that

1223
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 7: you mentioned it mattered to that executive. I mean, it's

1224
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 7: an opposing team, but his objective analysis. Those are things

1225
01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 7: that go a long way when teams are evaluating. Okay,

1226
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 7: is this person worth having at the end of the

1227
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 7: bench rotation because a lot of it is Okay, well

1228
01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:10,120
Speaker 7: he complain about playing time. No, Will he be a

1229
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 7: good teammate?

1230
01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:11,160
Speaker 2: Yes?

1231
01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 7: Can he mesh well with other teammates? Great? Now, the

1232
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 7: important thing that he'll have to develop is a defined

1233
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 7: skill because when you look at every role player, that's

1234
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,080
Speaker 7: what they're usually measured by. Okay, we have a positional needs?

1235
01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 7: What role player can we have?

1236
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 2: That's it? Mark? You neildy, I played marin League baseball.

1237
01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 2: Even in baseball, what's the one two you have? That

1238
01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:34,080
Speaker 2: scout's low. He doesn't have that, But.

Speaker 2: he twenty four to seven music news cycle, Why did

1247
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 2: I say music news in the NBA continues to go

1248
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 2: round and around. Mark has always got his finger on

1249
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 2: the pulse. Coming up a couple questions they're going to

1250

01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:18,200
Speaker 8: South Sudan one oh one to one hundred in a

1273
01:05:18,240 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 8: game in which the US trailed by double digit sixteen

1274
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 8: points at one point in the first half. They have

1275
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:30,000
Speaker 8: one more Olympic tune up coming up. It'll be Monday

1276
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:33,919
Speaker 8: against Germany and can be seen over on Fox. As

1277
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,440
Speaker 8: for the women's Olympic basketball team, they fell to the

1278
01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 8: WNBA All Star Team to Night one seventeen one nine.

1279
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:45,480
Speaker 8: Arique Ogain Bowally was an the game's MVP. Had thirty

1280
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 8: four points, all of which came in the second half.

1281
01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:52,000
Speaker 8: Angel Rees a double double, twelve points, eleven rebounds, Caitlyn

1282
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:56,840
Speaker 8: Clark had ten assists. Major League Baseball Dodgers extra inning

1283
01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:59,439
Speaker 8: winners against the Red Sox eleven inning, seven to six.

1284
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:02,080
Speaker 8: And I get some good news as they'll have a

1285
01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 8: couple of pitchers coming back from the injured list. Tyler

1286
01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:06,720
Speaker 8: Glass now going to get the start on Wednesday. Clayton

1287
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 8: Kershaw going to make his season debut on Thursday. The

1288
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 8: Milwaukee Brewers twelve winners in twelve innings against the Minnesota

1289
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 8: Twins eight four the final. The Astros ahead of the

1290
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,800
Speaker 8: AL West now by one game after they beat the

1291
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 8: Mariners four to two. Seattle now has lost five straight games,

1292
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:29,600
Speaker 8: so from the opposite Trent so far for the Pirates,

1293
01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 8: they've made it six straight wins. They beat the Philadelphia

1294
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:35,760
Speaker 8: Phillies for one. The Tigers have won four in a row,

1295
01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 8: including a seven to three victory at the Toronto Blue Jays,

1296
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:42,600
Speaker 8: and Baltimore wins eight to four at Texas, the Yankees

1297
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 8: falling to Tampa Bay nine to one. So the Baltimore's

1298
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,280
Speaker 8: lead in the AL East is right now at two games.

1299
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 2: Spect to Bernie, all right, Jeff, good stuff or I'm up.

1300
01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 2: Those vocal cards were about an hour away, all right.

1301
01:06:56,640 --> 01:07:00,360
Speaker 2: So the stadium site where the Oakland A these have

1302
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:04,320
Speaker 2: ear mark is the old Tropicana. A legendary movie member

1303
01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:07,840
Speaker 2: Moe Green was out at the Tropicana, and so we're

1304
01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:10,400
Speaker 2: talking about an iconic property. It looks like a shell

1305
01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,960
Speaker 2: right now, and they're scheduled to take it down completely

1306
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:16,680
Speaker 2: in October. Why well, that's where they're going to build

1307
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 2: the new A stadium. But there was a long Figas

1308
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 2: Stadium Authority meeting Thursday, and they left some clues as

1309
01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:28,720
Speaker 2: to how much they are advancing the ball down the road,

1310
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:33,479
Speaker 2: as it were. But still there are unanswered questions. Okay,

1311
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:38,800
Speaker 2: there are pressing questions that really are really revolve around

1312
01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:42,600
Speaker 2: three basic primary funding sources. The first part of the

1313
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:45,640
Speaker 2: public financing. The a's are going to tap into three

1314
01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:49,040
Speaker 2: hundred and eighty million dollars of previously approved taxpayer funding,

1315
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:51,240
Speaker 2: which I will tell you have a lot of local

1316
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,680
Speaker 2: folks up in arms are not happy about it. But

1317
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:55,560
Speaker 2: they say they plan to leave about thirty million of

1318
01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 2: that in reserves to help with finishing the project. What

1319
01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:01,720
Speaker 2: that means I don't know. The other two, I believe

1320
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:05,200
Speaker 2: have more questions. There's a debt financing issue to this.

1321
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:08,600
Speaker 2: The OCLAD a's apparently intend to borrow three hundred million

1322
01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:12,320
Speaker 2: dollars for the project. But yet still and I've asked

1323
01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:14,320
Speaker 2: about this. We've had Alan stew On on many times, we

1324
01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:17,680
Speaker 2: had Larry Beial, former ESPN anchor. No one seems to

1325
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:20,320
Speaker 2: know who the former lender is going to the formal

1326
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:24,479
Speaker 2: lender is going to be. There are no formal lender

1327
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,439
Speaker 2: commitments so far. The quote that we keep getting is

1328
01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:29,719
Speaker 2: quote we've had strong interests from a number of companies

1329
01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:32,519
Speaker 2: that want to participate, and that portion of the project

1330
01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:35,600
Speaker 2: that's about three hundred million dollars. Okay, you know the

1331
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:38,760
Speaker 2: old saying, stop telling me about the labor paints, show

1332
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:41,040
Speaker 2: me the baby. And then of course there's the equity

1333
01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:45,600
Speaker 2: financing the remaining eight hundred and fifty million dollars. That

1334
01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:48,720
Speaker 2: adds up to the one point five billion that this

1335
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:50,960
Speaker 2: thing is going to need to get to get paid for.

1336
01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:53,360
Speaker 2: That I believe is supposed to be funded by the

1337
01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:56,400
Speaker 2: a's current owner, John Fisher and his family and his

1338
01:08:56,479 --> 01:09:01,320
Speaker 2: business partners. They claim that there's ann going effort, have

1339
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 2: no reason to doubt that, involving a sports finance company

1340
01:09:06,320 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 2: with a lot of experience called Gallea Toto Sports Partners

1341
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:14,120
Speaker 2: to potentially bringing new team investors to help fund the project.

1342
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:18,840
Speaker 2: But that process too is also ongoing. So how are

1343
01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:21,360
Speaker 2: you going to really pay for this thing? Right now?

1344
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:26,320
Speaker 2: The demolition efforts have really begun already. If you drive

1345
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:30,120
Speaker 2: by the corner of Tropicana in Las Vegas Boulevard, Honest

1346
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:33,160
Speaker 2: to god, it just looks like a skeleton right now,

1347
01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:37,160
Speaker 2: is what it looks like. They are planning to engage

1348
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 2: in an implosion of the primary hotel tower at some

1349
01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:43,280
Speaker 2: point in October. That's all that's left. And what that's

1350
01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:45,320
Speaker 2: going to leave is when it's all cleared out as

1351
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:48,519
Speaker 2: a nine acre site for the A's ballpark. That will be,

1352
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:53,840
Speaker 2: I believe, the smallest footprint of any Major League Baseball facility.

1353
01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 2: And should the stadium ultimately be built there or not

1354
01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:00,559
Speaker 2: be built there as actually some people but are still

1355
01:10:00,560 --> 01:10:06,320
Speaker 2: hoping for. I guess they've put another casino there by

1356
01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:08,720
Speaker 2: the way. On Thursday, Major League Baseball released their twenty

1357
01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 2: twenty five regular season schedule, and the Sacramento will be

1358
01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:16,479
Speaker 2: the home to the A's for the next three years.

1359
01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:19,639
Speaker 2: Cut our health park. It's an outdoor facility and they're

1360
01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:23,120
Speaker 2: going to have artificial turf. It's easier to maintain, but

1361
01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,120
Speaker 2: that is going to magnify The heat gets very hot

1362
01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:29,200
Speaker 2: in Sacramento, and so look, there are a lot of

1363
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:33,479
Speaker 2: moving parts. The gentleman I have on Alan Snell has

1364
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:35,760
Speaker 2: pretty much always said he believes it's like ninety eight

1365
01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:37,519
Speaker 2: percent the A's are coming. But what I asked him

1366
01:10:37,520 --> 01:10:40,360
Speaker 2: Friday night, he says, seventy five percent. Let's just wait

1367
01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:43,560
Speaker 2: and watch and see what happens. But these are fair questions.

1368
01:10:43,920 --> 01:10:47,720
Speaker 2: These are unanswered questions, and inquiring minds really want to know,

1369
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:49,600
Speaker 2: how are you going to pay for this thing? We

1370
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:51,840
Speaker 2: keep hearing that the financing is on the way and

1371
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:55,639
Speaker 2: they're arranging it. But you know what was the movie

1372
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:59,720
Speaker 2: Show Me the Money. Let's just see what happens. Coming up,

1373
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 2: a legendary coach who spent time at Michigan State won

1374
01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:06,439
Speaker 2: a national championship at LSU, and you know about his

1375
01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:11,720
Speaker 2: exploits in Alabama. Well he's got a neat little event

1376
01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 2: coming up that will commemorate his name. I'm Bernie Fraddle.

1380
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:26,960
Speaker 2: Aw right back in the Bernie Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio,

1381
01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 2: we are Company live from New Tarac dot Com studios

1382
01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:33,800
Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas. Coming up top of the hour,

1383
01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:35,840
Speaker 2: I'm going to share with you why I believe Caitlin

1384
01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:40,120
Speaker 2: de boor, first year coach at Alabama, will have success.

1385
01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:43,080
Speaker 2: I'll lay it out for you. Speaking of Alabama, as

1386
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:47,320
Speaker 2: you well know, Nick Saban won six national championships in

1387
01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:53,600
Speaker 2: seventeen seasons at Alabama. Bama's football program is now expected

1388
01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:57,080
Speaker 2: to honor Saban, but were renaming the playing field at

1389
01:11:57,120 --> 01:12:03,400
Speaker 2: Brian Denny Stadium after the legendary former head coach. They

1390
01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:08,120
Speaker 2: will name the playing surface. It's expected to be renamed

1391
01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:13,599
Speaker 2: well Nick Saban Field. Time flies. The future always has

1392
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:15,400
Speaker 2: a way of arriving ahead of schedule. I'd never thought

1393
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:18,120
Speaker 2: Nick Saban will retire this soon. Thought he'd play a

1394
01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:19,800
Speaker 2: few more years, hang out a few more years. We

1395
01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:22,720
Speaker 2: know why he did. Seventy two years old now. In

1396
01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:26,599
Speaker 2: his seventeen seasons at Bama won two undred six games, Wow,

1397
01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 2: only lost twenty nine, six national championships nine SEC titles.

1398
01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:35,080
Speaker 2: By the way, Sabin also won one at LSU. So

1399
01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:37,479
Speaker 2: his seven national titles are the most of all time,

1400
01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:41,600
Speaker 2: more than fellow Alabama legend Paul bear Bryant. So the

1401
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:45,519
Speaker 2: state legislature in nineteen seventy five, which renamed the stadium

1402
01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:48,400
Speaker 2: to honor Bear Bryant, who'd actually won two and earned

1403
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:51,559
Speaker 2: thirty two games and six national titles in twenty five

1404
01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:54,920
Speaker 2: years with Bama. Bryant Denny Stadium Well, now the playing

1405
01:12:54,960 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 2: service will be named Nick Saban Field to be a

1406
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:04,720
Speaker 2: ceremony to dedicate the new field on September seventh, and

1407
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:07,559
Speaker 2: when the Crimson Tie take on South Florida in their

1408
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,679
Speaker 2: second game of the season at Bryant Denny Stadium, that's

1409
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:15,400
Speaker 2: the day it'll happen, and I will I think it'll be.

1410
01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:18,200
Speaker 2: I think it'll be quite a glorious event. Honestly, these

1411
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:24,400
Speaker 2: things don't just happen for no reason. You know, Schools

1412
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,479
Speaker 2: give out honorary degrees, schools get you know, they have

1413
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 2: recognition committees and the board of trustees have to approve

1414
01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 2: these things, so it's no small deal. And they'll dedicate

1415
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:40,240
Speaker 2: it on September seventh. Like I said, now, the Alabama A. D.

1416
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 2: Greg Burn has spoken for years about some sort of

1417
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:48,360
Speaker 2: plans to honor Saban, But I think his retirement actually

1418
01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:50,880
Speaker 2: took a lot of people by surprise, and how it

1419
01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:54,000
Speaker 2: went down so quickly after losing in the last second

1420
01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:57,400
Speaker 2: against Michigan on that failed you know, that'll be the

1421
01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 2: final play in Nick Saban's career. Ill faded Jalen Milroe

1422
01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 2: try to run between the tackles against Michigan, but look,

1423
01:14:05,800 --> 01:14:08,640
Speaker 2: never going to end the way you wanted to like

1424
01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:11,400
Speaker 2: I said, he won two hundred and six games. And

1425
01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:15,120
Speaker 2: this is a stadium that's fairly well legendary. I've been there.

1426
01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:18,680
Speaker 2: It's been around since nineteen twenty nine, and it was

1427
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:22,559
Speaker 2: first named Denny Stadium in honor of an Alabama president,

1428
01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:27,519
Speaker 2: George Denny, and then in the nineteen seventies they renamed

1429
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 2: it to Bryant Denny Stadium because they wanted to include

1430
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:33,880
Speaker 2: Bear Bryant. So when coach Kalin de Boor took over

1431
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 2: for Saban and decided he'll coach the Crimson Tide in

1432
01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:39,240
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, and Bama, by the way, opens their

1433
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:43,800
Speaker 2: current season August thirty first against Western Kentucky. The game's

1434
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:45,640
Speaker 2: going to be on ESPN, but I do think that

1435
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:50,439
Speaker 2: it will be the following week, September seventh, when this

1436
01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:55,600
Speaker 2: is decided and Nick Saban will get his props and

1437
01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:59,800
Speaker 2: then f will be named after Nick Saban. So what's it?

1438
01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 2: Thing is people can't And by the way, just so

1439
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:06,439
Speaker 2: you know, Saban has been around a while, all right.

1440
01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:09,160
Speaker 2: I remember him at Michigan State. He never felt he

1441
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:12,000
Speaker 2: was fulfilled there. I thought he did a pretty darn

1442
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:13,640
Speaker 2: good job at Michigan State. Go I'm to ten and

1443
01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:16,000
Speaker 2: one couldn't get the players he wanted to end up

1444
01:15:16,080 --> 01:15:18,800
Speaker 2: leaving for LSU. They bought them away, and then he

1445
01:15:18,880 --> 01:15:21,599
Speaker 2: left the college game for the Dolphins. And after two

1446
01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,160
Speaker 2: years and here it comes. People just will never let

1447
01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:26,639
Speaker 2: him off the hook for this because it happened clear

1448
01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:29,880
Speaker 2: back in Christmas in two thousand and six. After saying

1449
01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:33,920
Speaker 2: he would not be the Alabama coach, he once said, quote,

1450
01:15:33,960 --> 01:15:36,360
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be the Alabama coach. Now He's

1451
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:39,680
Speaker 2: going to get his name on the Alabama field. And

1452
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 2: obviously he accomplished more there with one Alabama team than

1453
01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:46,479
Speaker 2: any college coach has ever done. And I think the

1454
01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:49,200
Speaker 2: fact that he retired was a bit surprising because the

1455
01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:52,080
Speaker 2: new revenue demands at college football, well they kind of

1456
01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,599
Speaker 2: require holding back. Things can be sold to high that's bidder,

1457
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:57,559
Speaker 2: and Nick Saban wasn't really for that. I just think

1458
01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:00,880
Speaker 2: deep down he had a cocker with his wife and

1459
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:04,400
Speaker 2: said this version of college football is really not for us. Now.

1460
01:16:04,439 --> 01:16:06,759
Speaker 2: I want to stick up for Saban really quickly because

1461
01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:10,280
Speaker 2: most folks, people who listened to these sports talk shows

1462
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 2: around the network. At Fox, we have a lot of

1463
01:16:13,479 --> 01:16:18,000
Speaker 2: talent that spans the glow for decades, and probably there

1464
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:20,640
Speaker 2: were folks on this network that covered that, you know,

1465
01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:26,080
Speaker 2: covered that press conference as it were. Here's what happened,

1466
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:31,240
Speaker 2: all right, Nick Saban was close to turning the Dolphins around.

1467
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:34,599
Speaker 2: He'd gone like eight, and he'd gone like nine and seven,

1468
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:36,519
Speaker 2: and then he fell back and had a bad year.

1469
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:42,120
Speaker 2: And he went to the owner of the Dolphins, Wayne Heysange,

1470
01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:45,920
Speaker 2: and said, I want Drew Brees. He firmly believed he

1471
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:49,800
Speaker 2: was getting Drew Brees. The Chargers were not going to

1472
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:55,760
Speaker 2: resign him. Freeze had that shoulder injury and they didn't

1473
01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:59,120
Speaker 2: want to take a chance. But Saban believed with the

1474
01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:03,040
Speaker 2: pieces he had place in Miami, they were a quarterback away,

1475
01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 2: get me my quarterback, and we're going to get this

1476
01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:09,680
Speaker 2: team into the playoffs and into the Promised Land. And

1477
01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:14,400
Speaker 2: so Breeze when Sabin had that ill fraated well it

1478
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:15,720
Speaker 2: was more than once. But when he had the ill

1479
01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 2: fated press conferences, I'm not going to be Alabama's coach.

1480
01:17:19,120 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 2: Two days later, Breeze was flying in for a physical. Well. Unfortunately,

1481
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:26,120
Speaker 2: and there's no way Saban could have known this at

1482
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,360
Speaker 2: the time. It's kind of hard to predict the future.

1483
01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:32,800
Speaker 2: Breeze did not pass that physical with the Dolphins, and

1484
01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,960
Speaker 2: I think that I think Sabin took it very hard,

1485
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:40,960
Speaker 2: and I the word has it from good sources. I

1486
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:45,320
Speaker 2: have that I'm on too. Around Christmas Day in two

1487
01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:48,839
Speaker 2: thousand and six, Nick Saban and his family, his wife

1488
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:52,839
Speaker 2: met with Steve Wayne Heisanger, the owner of the Dolphins,

1489
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:55,280
Speaker 2: and his wife at their house and he was very

1490
01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:59,960
Speaker 2: candid and very cordially. He says, listen, I'm banking my future.

1491
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,280
Speaker 2: I'm getting his quarterback. If I can't have this quarterback,

1492
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,960
Speaker 2: I don't believe we could win here. I don't believe

1493
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:08,720
Speaker 2: I should be here. And because he was so forthright

1494
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:12,040
Speaker 2: and so honest and up front, Wayne Heyseenger accepted it.

1495
01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:15,960
Speaker 2: They parted on very good terms. I don't know that

1496
01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:19,040
Speaker 2: the media ever covered it as succinctly as they should

1497
01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:23,519
Speaker 2: have with that level of detail. Two days later, Saban

1498
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:26,720
Speaker 2: announced he was on his way to Alabama, and of

1499
01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,679
Speaker 2: course he took undue heat for it. He still takes

1500
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:31,880
Speaker 2: undue heat for it. Somebody will pull up that sound

1501
01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:34,840
Speaker 2: bite whenever they find it convenient, and the truth of

1502
01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:36,360
Speaker 2: the matter is, there was a lot more of the

1503
01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:38,760
Speaker 2: story and if he'd got his quarterback. I don't think

1504
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 2: he would have gone to Alabama, and at that point

1505
01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:43,080
Speaker 2: he thought he was getting his quarterback. As you recall,

1506
01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 2: two days later, at the press conference when this was announced,

1507
01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:49,759
Speaker 2: saban was not there. Wayne Heyseenger handled the press conference.

1508
01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:54,439
Speaker 2: He handled it in a very dignified fashion, and everybody

1509
01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:57,679
Speaker 2: sort of saved face. And Miami went about their business.

1510
01:18:58,280 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 2: The Dolphins and Nick saban In and the Alabama Crimson

1511
01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:04,439
Speaker 2: Tide went about their business. And now Nick saban Field

1512
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:08,240
Speaker 2: will be commemorated on August seventh. So what's next for Alabama. Well,

1513
01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:10,519
Speaker 2: they got a dude by the name of Kayln Borr

1514
01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:13,639
Speaker 2: Kylen de Boor who's taken over. You last saw Caylen

1515
01:19:13,680 --> 01:19:20,120
Speaker 2: de Boer in the National Championship Game coaching the Washington Huskies.

1516
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:23,320
Speaker 2: They got beat by Michigan. He turned that program around overnight.

1517
01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:25,400
Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, in his two years of Washington,

1518
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:29,599
Speaker 2: the Huskies were twenty five and three. What does Calen

1519
01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:32,440
Speaker 2: de Boor and his staff do that's been so universally

1520
01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:35,640
Speaker 2: successful as a football formula. I'm gonna share it with you,

1521
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:39,679
Speaker 2: and I believe Calen de Boor is going to have

1522
01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:45,080
Speaker 2: success at Alabama this season, and the season is right

1523
01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:49,160
Speaker 2: around the corner. August thirty. First, keep it locked. You're

1524
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 2: listening to the Bernie Frattle Show on Fox Sports Radio.

1525

1534
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 2: get the field named after him. September seventh, Hello, Kaylin

1535
01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:37,559
Speaker 2: de Boor and Alabama has had their share of ups

1536
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 2: and downs in the past. Just check your history. Long

1537
01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:44,800
Speaker 2: after Bear Bryant left, they were still futzing around with

1538
01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:49,160
Speaker 2: coaches like Mike Shula and it was not good. But

1539
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:53,760
Speaker 2: I believe that Kalin de Boor, While I make no

1540
01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 2: predictions about how many national championships he wins, if he

1541
01:20:56,479 --> 01:21:00,679
Speaker 2: wins any, Alabama's going to be successful this year. Will

1542
01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:05,639
Speaker 2: he have success? Will Kale Debor have success. Yes, here's why.

1543
01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:08,880
Speaker 2: Let's start with the fact that Debor is won everywhere

1544
01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:12,479
Speaker 2: he's been. He's a lifetime winner. His record as a

1545
01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:15,200
Speaker 2: head coach in his career is one oh four and twelve.

1546
01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:18,720
Speaker 2: That's one hundred and four wins and twelve losses. That's

1547
01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:22,400
Speaker 2: an eight ninety seven winning percentage. Now, to give that

1548
01:21:22,560 --> 01:21:27,040
Speaker 2: some perspective, Nick Saban's winning percentage as a college head

1549
01:21:27,040 --> 01:21:31,679
Speaker 2: coach is eight oho two. Well Saban does have seven

1550
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:36,200
Speaker 2: national titles. Welldbor actually has three national titles. I'll explain,

1551
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:38,640
Speaker 2: and he's played for two more. Okay, I get it.

1552
01:21:39,320 --> 01:21:42,280
Speaker 2: He's split in hairs right. Four of those title game

1553
01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:45,080
Speaker 2: appearances were at the NEI level at the University of

1554
01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:48,839
Speaker 2: Sioux Falls. But that's a level that often reveels true coaching.

1555
01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 2: Where the talent is there's parody. There's a lot you know,

1556
01:21:53,520 --> 01:21:56,600
Speaker 2: a lot of the talents the same, and so it

1557
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,240
Speaker 2: comes down to your ability to get the most out

1558
01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 2: of your players and how clever and creative of a

1559
01:22:01,520 --> 01:22:06,760
Speaker 2: scheme can you run. That is what typically you know,

1560
01:22:07,160 --> 01:22:10,960
Speaker 2: sets apart the men from the boys. So the fifth

1561
01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:16,000
Speaker 2: National Championship was last January when Kaitlin de Boor and

1562
01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:19,280
Speaker 2: his Washington Huskies. They were fourteen to zero and just

1563
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:23,240
Speaker 2: had polished off Texas and they beat Oregon twice, but

1564
01:22:23,280 --> 01:22:25,360
Speaker 2: he ended up getting beaten by Michigan for the College

1565
01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:31,280
Speaker 2: Football Championship. But when the Boar was at Sioux Falls

1566
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:34,719
Speaker 2: for a lot of his career, he was sixty seven

1567
01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:38,040
Speaker 2: and three. Now you may say, well, what whooped the

1568
01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:42,719
Speaker 2: damn do? That's the NAIA. No, it matters. That doesn't

1569
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:46,800
Speaker 2: happen by accident. Think about all the NIA coaches that

1570
01:22:46,840 --> 01:22:50,840
Speaker 2: have come and gone and multiple schools around the country,

1571
01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:54,160
Speaker 2: and they play fairly competitive football at that level, Yes

1572
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:58,519
Speaker 2: they do. Hords and hordes of coaches have had the

1573
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:01,920
Speaker 2: same opportunity to win sixty seven out of seventy games,

1574
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:04,280
Speaker 2: but only one did it. Kalin de Boor sixty seven

1575
01:23:04,360 --> 01:23:06,479
Speaker 2: and three to two Falls. Then he went to Fresno

1576
01:23:06,560 --> 01:23:09,720
Speaker 2: State where he was twelve and six, and then Washington

1577
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:12,280
Speaker 2: he was twenty five and three, and he took over

1578
01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:16,960
Speaker 2: a Washington team that, trust me, they were really in

1579
01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:19,400
Speaker 2: the doldrums and I concerned that they're going to fall

1580
01:23:19,439 --> 01:23:23,439
Speaker 2: back again this year. So what is what does Calen

1581
01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:26,600
Speaker 2: de Boor in his staff do that seems to translate

1582
01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:29,679
Speaker 2: so well, no matter where he goes, what is exactly

1583
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:33,920
Speaker 2: his football formula that allows him to have success and

1584
01:23:34,400 --> 01:23:38,000
Speaker 2: pretty much universally well, First of all, his offenses moved

1585
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:40,400
Speaker 2: the ball. These score points, they're they're very entertaining, they're

1586
01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:43,840
Speaker 2: very efficient. You saw Washington hanging thirty seven points and

1587
01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:46,759
Speaker 2: I think like five hundred and fifty yards on Texas

1588
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:50,679
Speaker 2: and the Sugar Bowl on New Year's Day. So Greg Byrne,

1589
01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:55,280
Speaker 2: the athletic director who saw the Longhorns hold the same

1590
01:23:55,320 --> 01:23:58,960
Speaker 2: Alabama team this last year to twenty four points in

1591
01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:03,240
Speaker 2: three hundred and sixty two yards. Greg Byrne, the Alabama

1592
01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:06,960
Speaker 2: athletic director, saw Calen de Boor and his Washington team

1593
01:24:07,000 --> 01:24:09,799
Speaker 2: scored thirty seven points in five hundred and thirty two yards.

1594
01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:14,360
Speaker 2: The beauty of it is, as much as Alabama's been

1595
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:17,760
Speaker 2: a great defensive team over the years, they've always been,

1596
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:22,840
Speaker 2: they're now an offensive team as well. I mean, you know,

1597
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:26,080
Speaker 2: Bryce Young won a Heisman Trophy. You had you had

1598
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:31,920
Speaker 2: the receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles win the Heisman Trophy.

1599
01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:34,720
Speaker 2: I talked about him in my opening segment. So this

1600
01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:39,000
Speaker 2: is an offense at Alabama that the bor should have

1601
01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:42,439
Speaker 2: no problem recruiting to I know, I'll have to, you know,

1602
01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:47,160
Speaker 2: get some staffers, which I believe he already has that

1603
01:24:47,320 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 2: understand the SEC landscape a little bit more than him.

1604
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:53,280
Speaker 2: But the thing about it is when you're a coach

1605
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:57,040
Speaker 2: and you have a certain culture, that culture typically travels,

1606
01:24:57,560 --> 01:25:01,280
Speaker 2: when you run a certain scheme, that's scheme typically travels.

1607
01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 2: And I think Debor is smart enough to cultivate relationships,

1608
01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:11,720
Speaker 2: acquire the regional knowledge he's going to have to have,

1609
01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:16,719
Speaker 2: and what will happen is that fierce competitiveness he already

1610
01:25:16,720 --> 01:25:18,759
Speaker 2: brings to the table, and not just on the field,

1611
01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:23,600
Speaker 2: but off the field when it comes to recruiting. And there, no,

1612
01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:28,120
Speaker 2: it's probably no more competitive than in the South. Those

1613
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:30,320
Speaker 2: schools go at each other tooth and nail to recruit.

1614
01:25:31,640 --> 01:25:35,479
Speaker 2: If Debor captures that learning curve, which I believe you will,

1615
01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 2: I think Alabama is going to have success. I think

1616
01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:44,760
Speaker 2: they're going to have success this year. Now you know

1617
01:25:44,800 --> 01:25:46,599
Speaker 2: where is it written you have to be an SEC

1618
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:51,240
Speaker 2: lifer to have success in the SEC. I firmly believe that.

1619
01:25:52,040 --> 01:25:56,960
Speaker 2: You know that the legend, the late great Mike Leach

1620
01:25:57,439 --> 01:25:59,759
Speaker 2: was not very much on his way to having success

1621
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:06,559
Speaker 2: at Mississippi. Look, it's never easy to go to a

1622
01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 2: new school, but he's gonna get athletes. He brings a

1623
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:15,720
Speaker 2: track record with him, and I believe he really understands

1624
01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:20,240
Speaker 2: what it truly takes to win football games, no matter

1625
01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:23,080
Speaker 2: what part of the country you're in. And I think

1626
01:26:23,439 --> 01:26:27,599
Speaker 2: a lot of people genuinely regard Calen de Borr as

1627
01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:31,599
Speaker 2: one of these geniuses that's on the rise. Let's go back,

1628
01:26:31,880 --> 01:26:34,639
Speaker 2: what twenty years there was a guy named urban Meyer.

1629
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 2: He had Ohio roots, all right, cut his teeth at

1630
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:41,880
Speaker 2: Bowling Green, cut his teeth at Utah. Then he ends

1631
01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:46,920
Speaker 2: up at Florida and he reloads urban Meyer. A Midwestern

1632
01:26:46,960 --> 01:26:51,679
Speaker 2: guy from Ohio relocates to Florida and wins two national titles.

1633
01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:55,760
Speaker 2: All right, Brian Kelly, He's not a Southern guy, but

1634
01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:58,519
Speaker 2: he brought a fake Southern accent. I mean, he went

1635
01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:02,960
Speaker 2: from Grand Valley State to Central Michigan, to Cincinnati to

1636
01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:05,439
Speaker 2: Notre Dame. What does he do? He brings a fake

1637
01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:09,920
Speaker 2: Louisiana accent. What does he do, Brian Kelly? He wins

1638
01:27:09,920 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 2: the SEC West his first season at Baton Rouge. So

1639
01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:18,920
Speaker 2: let's also give Greg Byrn the Alabama ad a lot

1640
01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:24,120
Speaker 2: of credit, all right. He hired Burn hired Calen de Boor.

1641
01:27:24,240 --> 01:27:28,200
Speaker 2: He knows the Pacific Northwest can translate to the Deep South.

1642
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:33,680
Speaker 2: Why well, where's Greg Burn from? He's from Oregon. He

1643
01:27:33,720 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 2: went to the high school in Oregon. His first eight

1644
01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:39,200
Speaker 2: years in athletic administration were spent at Oregon in Oregon

1645
01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:42,800
Speaker 2: State before moving down to the SEC where he worked

1646
01:27:42,840 --> 01:27:47,479
Speaker 2: at Kentucky, the Mississippi State, and now finally Alabama. So

1647
01:27:48,200 --> 01:27:51,479
Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is Alabama is a sought

1648
01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:53,640
Speaker 2: after job and a lot of people would love to

1649
01:27:53,680 --> 01:27:56,840
Speaker 2: have it. And I will tell you, you know, there

1650
01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:58,479
Speaker 2: are a couple people would have turned it down. But

1651
01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:01,559
Speaker 2: for the most part, you go through your rolodex and

1652
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:03,680
Speaker 2: you're going to have a You're going to cut a

1653
01:28:03,760 --> 01:28:08,200
Speaker 2: large swath of a lot of major candidates. And I

1654
01:28:08,240 --> 01:28:10,759
Speaker 2: believe there's an agent by the name of Jimmy Sexton,

1655
01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:15,640
Speaker 2: and he's always got a list of great coaching candidates,

1656
01:28:15,640 --> 01:28:19,280
Speaker 2: and his candidates, you know, have a tendency to do well.

1657
01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:22,040
Speaker 2: And you know, in January, a lot of them got

1658
01:28:22,040 --> 01:28:24,759
Speaker 2: big time raises, and they got commitments to the current jobs,

1659
01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:27,360
Speaker 2: and a lot of them were happy to stay putting

1660
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:33,040
Speaker 2: good jobs instead of risking the ever present danger of

1661
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:38,720
Speaker 2: replacing a legend. Kayalen debor is replacing a legend, and

1662
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:42,280
Speaker 2: that perhaps may be the most sobering aspect of this

1663
01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:48,040
Speaker 2: whole darn thing. It's really hard to replace a legend.

1664
01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 2: You may remember or not remember, or you can read

1665
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:54,280
Speaker 2: about it. A guy by the name of John Wooden.

1666
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:59,800
Speaker 2: He finally retired in nineteen seventy five after winning his

1667
01:28:59,840 --> 01:29:04,679
Speaker 2: final championship at UCLA with the likes of Dave Myers,

1668
01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:06,880
Speaker 2: the brother of Annie Myers, who you saw on the

1669
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:11,519
Speaker 2: bench tonight with team in the w NBA All Star Game.

1670
01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 2: David was a friend of mine. God rest is soul,

1671
01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:19,080
Speaker 2: a wonderful guy. When John Wooden retired at UCLA in

1672
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:21,679
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy five, he was replaced by a guy named

1673
01:29:21,720 --> 01:29:25,760
Speaker 2: Gene Bartow, who had been at the who had been

1674
01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:30,040
Speaker 2: in Alabama, Birmingham Bartow over the next I think three

1675
01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:34,080
Speaker 2: years when fifty two and nine made a Final four.

1676
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:36,680
Speaker 2: Actually it was two years. He went fifty two and

1677
01:29:36,800 --> 01:29:40,040
Speaker 2: nine and even made a Final four, but he left

1678
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:44,400
Speaker 2: after two seasons because it became thankless when you had

1679
01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:47,599
Speaker 2: to follow a legend by the name of John Wooden,

1680
01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:52,840
Speaker 2: who'd actually won ten national championships, even though it took

1681
01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:55,000
Speaker 2: Wooden into his sixteenth year to win his first national

1682
01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:59,920
Speaker 2: championship different times. Even then, Dean Smith at North ca

1683
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:06,080
Speaker 2: Carolina obviously a legend. The Dean Dome at North Carolina

1684
01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:09,400
Speaker 2: is named after Dean Smith. He was replaced by a

1685
01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:13,280
Speaker 2: gentleman named Bill Guthridge. Guthridge went to two final fours,

1686
01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:16,560
Speaker 2: but only lasted three seasons. Let's go back to Alabama,

1687
01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:21,719
Speaker 2: who replaced Barb Bryant, Ray Perkins, who had NFL times,

1688
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:27,559
Speaker 2: who had excellent, an excellent resume, an excellent reputation. He

1689
01:30:27,680 --> 01:30:30,240
Speaker 2: checked all the boxes, genuinely did, and oh, by the way,

1690
01:30:31,200 --> 01:30:35,040
Speaker 2: not terrible. He went thirty two and fifteen in Alabama.

1691
01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:38,839
Speaker 2: That's not a bad record unless you're replacing bar Bryant.

1692
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:44,519
Speaker 2: Now it's not automatic that Mike checked that. That Caitlin

1693
01:30:44,560 --> 01:30:48,320
Speaker 2: de Boor has success, But I think Alabama has everything

1694
01:30:48,400 --> 01:30:51,519
Speaker 2: necessary to continue winning, and de bor has already proved

1695
01:30:51,520 --> 01:30:55,599
Speaker 2: he can do it. Remember Mike Shula not so good?

1696
01:30:55,680 --> 01:30:57,519
Speaker 2: But what was his track right before he got there?

1697
01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:03,759
Speaker 2: Mike Debos, Dennis Francioni, Ray Perkins, the Alabama Crimson Tide

1698
01:31:03,840 --> 01:31:05,920
Speaker 2: believe me. The folks, good folks down at Alabama know

1699
01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:09,160
Speaker 2: all too well. They spent their times in the doldrums

1700
01:31:09,160 --> 01:31:12,639
Speaker 2: for a while after Baron Bryant left and until Nick

1701
01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:18,639
Speaker 2: Saban took over. But here's the thing I think, Nick,

1702
01:31:18,880 --> 01:31:21,760
Speaker 2: I think people learned. There's no way people can remember that.

1703
01:31:21,840 --> 01:31:23,439
Speaker 2: You can't go back to two thousand and seven. They're

1704
01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:27,800
Speaker 2: not gonna remember. I think Caitlin de Bor arrives with

1705
01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:31,200
Speaker 2: a ton of street cred way more than people realize,

1706
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:34,040
Speaker 2: maybe almost as much as Nick Saban when he was

1707
01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:36,679
Speaker 2: hired in two thousand and seven. Even though Saban won

1708
01:31:36,720 --> 01:31:39,880
Speaker 2: that national title at LSU, the boor came this close

1709
01:31:39,960 --> 01:31:45,320
Speaker 2: at Washington, and he came much closer than Mike Norvel

1710
01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:47,800
Speaker 2: or Steve Sarkisian or Dan Lanning have to date, and

1711
01:31:47,840 --> 01:31:51,439
Speaker 2: those were the other I believe Alabama finalists to get

1712
01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:53,200
Speaker 2: the job, even though I don't think sarkisi was ever

1713
01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:58,480
Speaker 2: gonna leave Texas. The kicker, though, is that national championships

1714
01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:01,880
Speaker 2: are in fact the standard at Alabama, and Kaitlin be wore.

1715
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,920
Speaker 2: I believe he took the job. You gotta love a

1716
01:32:05,960 --> 01:32:09,040
Speaker 2: man who take that challenge on right. But I believe

1717
01:32:09,080 --> 01:32:13,439
Speaker 2: he took the job. Why because he believes he can

1718
01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:16,200
Speaker 2: win a national championship. He clearly believes he can do it.

1719
01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:19,559
Speaker 2: There the Boar not only has the track record, I

1720
01:32:19,600 --> 01:32:22,680
Speaker 2: think he's got the requisite confidence to undertake This is

1721
01:32:22,720 --> 01:32:26,920
Speaker 2: the most daunting succession in college football history that I

1722
01:32:26,920 --> 01:32:31,559
Speaker 2: can ever remember. That's just a fact. And so you're

1723
01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:36,439
Speaker 2: replacing a guy who, yes's got a field name after him,

1724
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:40,000
Speaker 2: six national championships. But someone had to take the job,

1725
01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,559
Speaker 2: and it's Kailin de Boor. And by the way, I

1726
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:46,320
Speaker 2: believe he's going to have success this year. Not predicting

1727
01:32:46,360 --> 01:32:49,839
Speaker 2: the national championship, but I believe he's going to have success.

1728

Speaker 2: really sort of surprise and shock the world? And yes,

1745

Speaker 2: in Las Vegas. We are thirty seven minutes away from

1753
01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:13,280
Speaker 2: the dance Sensation sweep of the nation. What kind of

1754
01:34:13,280 --> 01:34:15,479
Speaker 2: brand new fool you followed it by? What my name?

1755
01:34:16,479 --> 01:34:18,920
Speaker 2: Coming up the bottom of the hour after the chef's

1756
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:24,800
Speaker 2: update and performance, there are about ten big NFL storylines

1757
01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:27,479
Speaker 2: that will be upon us sooner rather than later. I'm

1758
01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:30,160
Speaker 2: just gonna hit on two of them this week. It'll

1759
01:34:30,160 --> 01:34:31,760
Speaker 2: be a running theme over the next month, and we'll

1760
01:34:31,760 --> 01:34:37,880
Speaker 2: start our conference and division previews next week. But I

1761
01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:40,200
Speaker 2: want to bring in the crew. I've made some pretty

1762
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:42,920
Speaker 2: bold statements about killing to Boris one, O, four and twelve.

1763
01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:45,799
Speaker 2: He's won everywhere he's been, came in with a whisker

1764
01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:48,480
Speaker 2: of winning a national championship last year. I think Alabama's

1765
01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:51,320
Speaker 2: going to have success right away. I'm not predicting the

1766
01:34:51,400 --> 01:34:53,519
Speaker 2: national championship, but better than you think. I think they'll

1767
01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:55,679
Speaker 2: get to the playoffs this year in the new twelve

1768
01:34:55,760 --> 01:34:59,000
Speaker 2: team format. So, Chef, let's start with you. You never

1769
01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:02,799
Speaker 2: want to replace a legend, which is exactly what Kailen

1770
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:04,840
Speaker 2: de Borr is doing. But did I oversell it or

1771
01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:06,320
Speaker 2: do you expect him to have success?

1772
01:35:06,439 --> 01:35:09,639
Speaker 8: Well, he said it, Bernie. He's had success everywhere he's gone.

1773
01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:12,839
Speaker 8: He wanted President State, he wanted Washington. I could definitely

1774
01:35:12,920 --> 01:35:16,160
Speaker 8: see him winning at Alabama. Now, for me, the question

1775
01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:18,439
Speaker 8: is whether or not he's going to have the type

1776
01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:21,080
Speaker 8: of success that Nick Saban has, which is a very

1777
01:35:21,200 --> 01:35:22,599
Speaker 8: rare company to join.

1778
01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:24,599
Speaker 9: At least could see him.

1779
01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:27,200
Speaker 8: Winning nine to ten games everywhere, But of course the

1780
01:35:27,240 --> 01:35:31,040
Speaker 8: standards in Tuscaloosa much higher than that. They want eleven

1781
01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:35,200
Speaker 8: twelve win seasons in contention for national championships. Whether he

1782
01:35:35,280 --> 01:35:37,920
Speaker 8: can do that on a consistent basis, I'm not sure of.

1783
01:35:37,960 --> 01:35:40,400
Speaker 8: But I know very well that they'll at least be

1784
01:35:41,439 --> 01:35:43,719
Speaker 8: ten game winners, are very close to it every year

1785
01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:46,479
Speaker 8: that he is the coach. I think he is capable

1786
01:35:46,520 --> 01:35:47,240
Speaker 8: of that at least.

1787
01:35:48,760 --> 01:35:52,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do too. And he's got his quarterback back.

1788
01:35:52,160 --> 01:35:54,679
Speaker 2: And remember we've got a twelve team playoff this year.

1789
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:58,120
Speaker 2: So if he just gets to the playoff and maybe

1790
01:35:58,200 --> 01:36:00,240
Speaker 2: wins a playoff game but then gets knocked out out,

1791
01:36:00,880 --> 01:36:04,120
Speaker 2: does that appease Alabama fans a year one because it's

1792
01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:06,000
Speaker 2: better than nothing year one?

1793
01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:08,759
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that would be fine. With a playoff

1794
01:36:08,880 --> 01:36:12,599
Speaker 8: appearance and then a loss, it would be okay, Year three, four, five.

1795
01:36:13,040 --> 01:36:16,559
Speaker 8: What's he doing in regards to one in the regular season,

1796
01:36:16,640 --> 01:36:20,479
Speaker 8: how they're doing against rivals like Auburn, and to what

1797
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:25,080
Speaker 8: their performances in the playoffs. So the first year, I

1798
01:36:25,120 --> 01:36:27,280
Speaker 8: think he'll get a little bit of slack in regards

1799
01:36:27,280 --> 01:36:30,760
Speaker 8: to his ability to compete for a national championship. But

1800
01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:34,000
Speaker 8: he's not going to have that long of a honeymoon period.

1801
01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:36,320
Speaker 8: By the time year three or four comes around, they

1802
01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:39,160
Speaker 8: will be antsy if he does not deliver them. If

1803
01:36:39,200 --> 01:36:41,720
Speaker 8: not a national championship, then maybe an appearance in the

1804
01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:43,080
Speaker 8: national championship game.

1805
01:36:45,040 --> 01:36:49,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, boy, honeymoon period even really thick about that. He

1806
01:36:49,920 --> 01:36:52,880
Speaker 2: does come with quite a resume, though, Ian Roddy, let's

1807
01:36:52,880 --> 01:36:54,160
Speaker 2: get your thoughts on the whole deal.

1808
01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:56,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, I like him a lot as a guy to

1809
01:36:57,280 --> 01:37:01,360
Speaker 11: replace Saban in terms of how much success will have,

1810
01:37:01,479 --> 01:37:04,400
Speaker 11: Like to what Kevin was just saying, Uh, I mean,

1811
01:37:04,479 --> 01:37:06,800
Speaker 11: I I think to hold him to the standard of

1812
01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:10,920
Speaker 11: Nick Saban is is just straight up unfair. And but

1813
01:37:11,080 --> 01:37:12,840
Speaker 11: to be to be fair, I don't I don't know

1814
01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:16,040
Speaker 11: that anyone is even though he's replacing Nick Saban at Alabama.

1815
01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:19,120
Speaker 11: I don't think anyone there is sitting here, you know,

1816
01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:21,040
Speaker 11: gun to his head saying you need to win US

1817
01:37:21,080 --> 01:37:23,000
Speaker 11: seven you know, national or however money save.

1818
01:37:23,040 --> 01:37:23,439
Speaker 2: I don't know why.

1819
01:37:23,479 --> 01:37:24,760
Speaker 11: I can't remember off the top of my head right

1820
01:37:24,760 --> 01:37:27,439
Speaker 11: now that Saban total there at Alabama.

1821
01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:28,559
Speaker 9: But six.

1822
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:30,920
Speaker 2: Lu before he got there.

1823
01:37:31,040 --> 01:37:34,240
Speaker 11: Yeah, so seven total. But yeah, six at Alabama. I

1824
01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:38,679
Speaker 11: I don't think anyone sitting here even expecting to board

1825
01:37:38,840 --> 01:37:42,439
Speaker 11: to win six national championships. But but he's a guy

1826
01:37:42,439 --> 01:37:44,320
Speaker 11: who's shown that he can win, and and like both

1827
01:37:44,439 --> 01:37:46,400
Speaker 11: you and Kevin have said, he's won everywhere he's been.

1828
01:37:46,479 --> 01:37:48,400
Speaker 11: I don't think there's any reason to believe he won't

1829
01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:50,960
Speaker 11: win here, especially because he has a quarterback that we

1830
01:37:51,040 --> 01:37:53,559
Speaker 11: know is at least a solid college quarterback.

1831
01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:53,760
Speaker 2: You know.

1832
01:37:53,800 --> 01:37:57,080
Speaker 11: It's however you feel about Melrose, an NFL guy, He's

1833
01:37:57,080 --> 01:37:59,960
Speaker 11: a He's a solid college quarterback, and and we've seen

1834
01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:02,759
Speaker 11: de Bor. All he needs is a solid college quarterback.

1835
01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:05,200
Speaker 11: He had panics and he was great right away at Washington,

1836
01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:07,360
Speaker 11: So I feel good about him.

1837
01:38:08,080 --> 01:38:11,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. How about this year? Can do you think the

1838
01:38:11,360 --> 01:38:13,519
Speaker 2: Alabama could make the twelve team playoff this year?

1839
01:38:13,640 --> 01:38:13,800
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1840
01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:16,360
Speaker 11: Because it's only twelve teams. If it was back to

1841
01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:18,080
Speaker 11: the four team thing, I don't even.

1842
01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:21,320
Speaker 2: At think they would go to navigate Georgia and Texas

1843
01:38:21,320 --> 01:38:22,839
Speaker 2: and it's going to be a tough conference.

1844
01:38:22,960 --> 01:38:25,040
Speaker 11: Yeah, But I also to be fair, I haven't just

1845
01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:29,360
Speaker 11: like sat there and named out twelve teams because because

1846
01:38:29,520 --> 01:38:31,400
Speaker 11: we can sit here, you know, leading up in the

1847
01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:33,919
Speaker 11: preseason say like, oh, well, it's a twelve team conference,

1848
01:38:34,120 --> 01:38:36,120
Speaker 11: you know, anyone can make it in. But at the

1849
01:38:36,240 --> 01:38:37,640
Speaker 11: end of the day, like we're probably going to be

1850
01:38:37,720 --> 01:38:41,120
Speaker 11: talking about around like sixteen teams who at least feasibly

1851
01:38:41,120 --> 01:38:41,759
Speaker 11: have a shot.

1852
01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:45,920
Speaker 2: So yep, it's going to be fun to watch. And

1853
01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:50,400
Speaker 2: one of the things to note is with Saban left,

1854
01:38:50,439 --> 01:38:52,240
Speaker 2: there was a belief that there would have been a

1855
01:38:52,280 --> 01:38:57,479
Speaker 2: mass exodus because because Saban left, the portal opened that day.

1856
01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:01,320
Speaker 2: That didn't happen. They lost some guys that naturally, because

1857
01:39:01,320 --> 01:39:03,240
Speaker 2: that's just what's gonna happen you go to play for

1858
01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:03,679
Speaker 2: a coach.

1859
01:39:04,120 --> 01:39:06,960
Speaker 11: Losing Bond was big the receiver because I don't know

1860
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:09,360
Speaker 11: who they have at receiver now that's my concern with them.

1861
01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:13,080
Speaker 2: But they got a couple of new transfers from Washington. Yes, yes,

1862
01:39:13,560 --> 01:39:18,240
Speaker 2: So look it's got to play out the real the

1863
01:39:18,320 --> 01:39:20,200
Speaker 2: real questions will be answered as you get into the

1864
01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:21,840
Speaker 2: media of the schedule when you're when you're playing the

1865
01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:24,599
Speaker 2: Texas's and the Mississippis and the Alabama's or checked out

1866
01:39:24,640 --> 01:39:27,519
Speaker 2: the yeah, let's use in the Georgia's. So we'll see.

1867
01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:30,360
Speaker 2: But Calen DeVore, he's been there done that. This isn't

1868
01:39:30,360 --> 01:39:32,719
Speaker 2: his first barbecue. I think they made a good hire,

1869
01:39:32,880 --> 01:39:36,799
Speaker 2: and I think that we are going to see Alabama

1870
01:39:36,960 --> 01:39:39,200
Speaker 2: not have anywhere near the drop off that they had

1871
01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:40,280
Speaker 2: when Bear Bryant left.

1872
01:39:40,439 --> 01:39:41,960
Speaker 5: And he's already recruiting well too.

1873
01:39:42,400 --> 01:39:47,640
Speaker 2: Really well, I watched that offense under him. Remember I

1874
01:39:47,760 --> 01:39:52,760
Speaker 2: mentioned this. If you guys heard, Washington and Alabama both

1875
01:39:52,800 --> 01:39:57,160
Speaker 2: had a common opponent last year Texas and Washington put

1876
01:39:57,280 --> 01:39:59,439
Speaker 2: up thirty seven points in five hundred and thirty two

1877
01:39:59,479 --> 01:40:02,920
Speaker 2: yards and the Sugar Bowl, Bama only put up twenty

1878
01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:05,320
Speaker 2: four points in three hundred and sixty two yards. So

1879
01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:08,799
Speaker 2: you're going to see a very dynamic offense that's efficient,

1880
01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:12,760
Speaker 2: that's entertaining, that's explosive, and you get Alabama athletes running it.

1881
01:40:12,800 --> 01:40:14,599
Speaker 2: And so this is a school that's had two Heisman

1882
01:40:14,640 --> 01:40:17,599
Speaker 2: trophies in the last five or six years, so they're

1883
01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:19,280
Speaker 2: no stranger to offense. And I think you're going to

1884
01:40:19,320 --> 01:40:23,559
Speaker 2: see a really dynamic offense under Kalin Deborr. Comeing up,

1885
01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:28,240
Speaker 2: let's talk some NFL look. The Hall of Fame Game

1886
01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:32,480
Speaker 2: is a week from Thursday, a week from next Thursday.

1887
01:40:33,000 --> 01:40:37,920
Speaker 2: True story. There are about ten storylines heading into this season.

1888
01:40:37,960 --> 01:40:41,880
Speaker 2: That I've identified big ones. But I'm going to hit

1889
01:40:41,920 --> 01:40:44,000
Speaker 2: on the top two tonight and we'll do the rest

1890
01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:46,840
Speaker 2: over the month of August as we head into the season,

1891
01:40:46,920 --> 01:40:52,679
Speaker 2: and we'll start our division previews next week. But first,

1892
01:40:52,720 --> 01:40:55,680
Speaker 2: let's go back to our guy and his baffo performance.

1893
01:40:55,720 --> 01:40:59,400
Speaker 2: To Chef Kevin Wired, we're all special.

1894
01:41:01,439 --> 01:41:04,560
Speaker 10: Everybody is different, but that's okay because even though we

1895
01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:08,280
Speaker 10: might have had different color skin, different post of view,

1896
01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:11,280
Speaker 10: who's the tall out team, It doesn't mean I can't

1897
01:41:11,439 --> 01:41:16,840
Speaker 10: lay you down, woman, and that's your silky skin, but

1898
01:41:17,040 --> 01:41:20,040
Speaker 10: my love to can start you one. No man has

1899
01:41:20,080 --> 01:41:20,799
Speaker 10: ever been.

Speaker 5: Coress your thigh and what were we talking about, Chef Man,

1901
01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:31,040
Speaker 5: You're on fire.

1902
01:41:31,120 --> 01:41:32,000
Speaker 9: No, I love it.

1903
01:41:32,320 --> 01:41:33,679
Speaker 5: Very soulful performance.

1904
01:41:33,760 --> 01:41:36,720
Speaker 8: Yes, so I had to warm up my voice, and man,

1905
01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:38,120
Speaker 8: I got it out there for you. One of my

1906
01:41:38,200 --> 01:41:39,679
Speaker 8: favorite parts of our show work.

1907
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:42,680
Speaker 2: I am not no okay, I gonna say you better

1908
01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:44,160
Speaker 2: take a cold shower before your next shift.

1909
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:46,719
Speaker 9: They're a big fellow anyway.

1910
01:41:47,400 --> 01:41:52,240
Speaker 8: In the Olympic basketball exhibition game between South Sudan and

1911
01:41:52,280 --> 01:41:55,439
Speaker 8: the United States, South Sudan out to a fast start.

1912
01:41:55,479 --> 01:41:57,560
Speaker 8: They were up double digits in the first half and

1913
01:41:58,280 --> 01:42:00,839
Speaker 8: the men's Olympic basketball team for the the United States

1914
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:03,920
Speaker 8: had to rally to beat them one O one one hundred,

1915
01:42:04,040 --> 01:42:07,200
Speaker 8: Lebron James getting a late layup to give them the win.

1916
01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:07,840
Speaker 9: By man.

1917
01:42:08,080 --> 01:42:11,000
Speaker 8: That was a close call for the men's Olympic team.

1918
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:14,479
Speaker 8: They've got one more exhibition matchup before they begin the

1919
01:42:14,600 --> 01:42:18,200
Speaker 8: Olympic tournament and that'll be on Monday against Germany on Fox.

1920
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:21,840
Speaker 8: As opposed to or excuse me, as for the US

1921
01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:25,000
Speaker 8: women's Olympic basketball team, they lost to the WNBA All

1922
01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:29,040
Speaker 8: Stars one seventeen to one pH nine and k Ungo

1923
01:42:29,240 --> 01:42:33,600
Speaker 8: Bowala scored thirty four points as she was named the

1924
01:42:34,160 --> 01:42:37,479
Speaker 8: All Star Game MVP. Angel Reasee a double double twelve points,

1925
01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:42,040
Speaker 8: eleven rebounds. Caitlin Clark had ten assists in the NBA

1926
01:42:42,240 --> 01:42:45,360
Speaker 8: Evan Mobley getting a five year max rookie extension worth

1927
01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:47,400
Speaker 8: at least two hundred and twenty four dollars from the

1928
01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:52,360
Speaker 8: Cleveland Cavaliers Major League Baseball. The Astros now in front

1929
01:42:52,520 --> 01:42:54,880
Speaker 8: of the Mariners in the Al wester An in first

1930
01:42:54,920 --> 01:42:58,759
Speaker 8: place by one game after winning against Seattle on Saturday

1931
01:42:58,920 --> 01:43:01,800
Speaker 8: four to two. So the Maria have struggled lately as

1932
01:43:01,840 --> 01:43:06,280
Speaker 8: they have now lost five straight games. Pittsburgh, though they've

1933
01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:08,280
Speaker 8: won six in a row, including a four to one

1934
01:43:08,400 --> 01:43:11,439
Speaker 8: victory against the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday. The Tigers have

1935
01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:14,120
Speaker 8: made it four straight wins a seven to three win

1936
01:43:14,320 --> 01:43:17,840
Speaker 8: against the Toronto Blue Jays, and the Dodgers win it

1937
01:43:17,920 --> 01:43:20,080
Speaker 8: in eleven innings against the Red Sox seven to six.

1938
01:43:20,120 --> 01:43:23,080
Speaker 8: They're getting more good news too. Tyler Glass now coming

1939
01:43:23,120 --> 01:43:26,719
Speaker 8: off the angel list. He'll start Wednesday. Clayton Kershaw making

1940
01:43:26,840 --> 01:43:31,160
Speaker 8: his season debut on Thursday the Milwaukee Brewers. They win

1941
01:43:31,200 --> 01:43:34,759
Speaker 8: in twelve eightings. It's against the Minnesota Twins, eight to four.

1942
01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:36,320
Speaker 9: Out in the.

1943
01:43:36,360 --> 01:43:39,120
Speaker 8: AL East, it's the Orioles eight four winners against the

1944
01:43:39,160 --> 01:43:41,920
Speaker 8: Texas Rangers. The Yankees fall to the Tampa Bay Rays

1945
01:43:41,960 --> 01:43:45,800
Speaker 8: and nine won. So it is Baltimore up on up

1946
01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:48,920
Speaker 8: ahead in the AL East by two GAMESPEC to you

1947
01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:49,840
Speaker 8: burning all.

1948
01:43:49,800 --> 01:43:54,920
Speaker 2: Right, chef, good stuff, O man, all right. I'm going

1949
01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:57,400
Speaker 2: to dub this year in the NFL as the year

1950
01:43:57,560 --> 01:44:02,920
Speaker 2: of the comeback. Joe Burrow He's going to be facing

1951
01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:05,920
Speaker 2: ana comeback season. So will Anthony Richardson so well, Nick

1952
01:44:06,000 --> 01:44:08,479
Speaker 2: Chubb so well, Kirk Cousins for that matter, and of course,

1953
01:44:08,560 --> 01:44:12,120
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones. They're all going to be fighting for comeback

1954
01:44:12,160 --> 01:44:14,920
Speaker 2: play over the year. But you'll notice that I have

1955
01:44:15,040 --> 01:44:18,640
Speaker 2: omitted one name that dwarfs all of them, God, by

1956
01:44:18,680 --> 01:44:22,280
Speaker 2: the name of Aaron Rodgers. There can be no bigger

1957
01:44:22,360 --> 01:44:26,320
Speaker 2: storyline in my view this year that what will it

1958
01:44:26,400 --> 01:44:29,800
Speaker 2: look like and what will the scrutiny look like and

1959
01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:33,639
Speaker 2: the pressure that the Jets will have with Aaron Rodgers

1960
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:36,800
Speaker 2: under center, fingers crossed. He's healthy and he's able to play.

1961
01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:41,920
Speaker 2: You saw what happened last year, derailed by the torn

1962
01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:46,000
Speaker 2: achilles tenon four plays into the season. He took four

1963
01:44:46,080 --> 01:44:50,200
Speaker 2: snaps and that was it. So the New York Jets,

1964
01:44:51,600 --> 01:44:54,559
Speaker 2: no one can disagree that they've been a long dysfunctional team.

1965
01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:57,240
Speaker 2: They're supposed to be a Super Bowl contender now they

1966
01:44:57,280 --> 01:45:00,240
Speaker 2: have an elite defense. They won seven games last year.

1967
01:45:00,920 --> 01:45:03,160
Speaker 2: If they'd have just had marginal quarterback play, that have

1968
01:45:03,240 --> 01:45:07,519
Speaker 2: been good. But it remains to be seen if Aaron Rodgers,

1969
01:45:07,760 --> 01:45:12,320
Speaker 2: the forty year old addition of Aaron Rodgers coming off

1970
01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:16,840
Speaker 2: the achilles, can be anything close to the Hall of

1971
01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:20,439
Speaker 2: Famer that he's been in his career and the type

1972
01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:24,040
Speaker 2: of player that the Jets just need badly. It also

1973
01:45:24,160 --> 01:45:29,280
Speaker 2: remains to be seen if Rogers, who really has frankly

1974
01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:32,120
Speaker 2: been criticized by a lot of people for his lack

1975
01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:35,679
Speaker 2: of professionalism, including people within the members of the Jets organization,

1976
01:45:36,439 --> 01:45:39,519
Speaker 2: can be a part of a genuine, legitimate, lasting culture

1977
01:45:39,680 --> 01:45:43,479
Speaker 2: change that can lead to a deep playoff front. If

1978
01:45:43,520 --> 01:45:45,280
Speaker 2: the Jets don't have that, I think they blow the

1979
01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:48,240
Speaker 2: whole thing up. This is a big storyline and it

1980
01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:53,559
Speaker 2: takes place week one. We'll all be watching now. Thus far,

1981
01:45:54,720 --> 01:45:56,960
Speaker 2: I would say Rogers has seemed to kind of fuel

1982
01:45:57,000 --> 01:46:00,640
Speaker 2: the drama that's prevented that's actually prevented the Jets from

1983
01:46:00,720 --> 01:46:05,160
Speaker 2: looking like a top flight, first class culture and in

1984
01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:10,000
Speaker 2: a model organization. Because look, just last month, here we

1985
01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:13,000
Speaker 2: are Aaron Rodgers and the Jets in the news for

1986
01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:16,680
Speaker 2: the wrong reasons as Aaron Rodgers missed the team's mandatory

1987
01:46:16,760 --> 01:46:19,960
Speaker 2: mini camp for a previously scheduled trip apparently had the

1988
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:23,840
Speaker 2: trip scheduled before the mini camp dates were set. I

1989
01:46:23,880 --> 01:46:26,519
Speaker 2: don't know where he went to Egypt or something, but

1990
01:46:27,080 --> 01:46:29,280
Speaker 2: the media gets their teeth around that. That's just the

1991
01:46:29,400 --> 01:46:31,080
Speaker 2: kind of fodder and the blood in the water that

1992
01:46:31,280 --> 01:46:35,080
Speaker 2: just creates all the uncertainty around the Jets, and then

1993
01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:38,479
Speaker 2: people start asking questions about Rogers level of dedication. Many

1994
01:46:38,560 --> 01:46:42,120
Speaker 2: wonder whether he and Robert Soler getting along or you know,

1995
01:46:43,160 --> 01:46:46,280
Speaker 2: really is is Aaron Rodgers really the answer to their questions?

1996
01:46:46,920 --> 01:46:49,400
Speaker 2: And you know they pulled the trigger on that blockbuster

1997
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:52,360
Speaker 2: trade with the Packers, but now look, the Jets have

1998
01:46:52,520 --> 01:46:55,280
Speaker 2: nothing to show for it, and the Packers do so

1999
01:46:55,479 --> 01:46:58,400
Speaker 2: to me, the number one story this year will be

2000
01:46:58,479 --> 01:47:02,000
Speaker 2: the return of Aaron Rodgers as he vised, you know,

2001
01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:05,639
Speaker 2: competes with Joe Burrow and Nanny, Anthony Richardson and Nick

2002
01:47:05,760 --> 01:47:07,880
Speaker 2: Chubb and Kirk Cousins and Daniel Jones will all be

2003
01:47:07,960 --> 01:47:10,559
Speaker 2: part of the comeback Player of the Year Kennedy. It's

2004
01:47:10,560 --> 01:47:13,639
Speaker 2: been none bigger than Aaron Rodgers. The second biggest story

2005
01:47:13,720 --> 01:47:17,799
Speaker 2: for me is no one has ever won, No NFL

2006
01:47:17,880 --> 01:47:22,519
Speaker 2: team has ever won three consecutive Super Bowls. The Kansas

2007
01:47:22,560 --> 01:47:25,560
Speaker 2: City Chiefs. That's what they are attempting to do, and

2008
01:47:25,680 --> 01:47:28,519
Speaker 2: in doing so, they would make major history. And as

2009
01:47:28,560 --> 01:47:32,320
Speaker 2: long as you got Patrick Mahomes, the law firm of

2010
01:47:32,400 --> 01:47:35,800
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, and hell what they hell

2011
01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:38,400
Speaker 2: throw Travis Kelcey and Chris Jones into that as well.

2012
01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:42,400
Speaker 2: As long as those guys are intact, they form the

2013
01:47:42,520 --> 01:47:45,519
Speaker 2: lead culture for a team that I really believe can

2014
01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:48,280
Speaker 2: do this. You're gonna have to have more than just

2015
01:47:48,360 --> 01:47:51,080
Speaker 2: great quarterback play. You're gonna have to have more than

2016
01:47:51,120 --> 01:47:56,400
Speaker 2: a you know, a dynamic offense. They're gonna have to

2017
01:47:56,760 --> 01:47:58,800
Speaker 2: rely on a lot of leaderships. Not what happens, it's

2018
01:47:58,800 --> 01:48:01,400
Speaker 2: how you react. And I expected to be a somewhat

2019
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:04,760
Speaker 2: bumpy road. It was last year for the Chiefs last year,

2020
01:48:05,360 --> 01:48:07,800
Speaker 2: and let's not forget. If you think the Chiefs had

2021
01:48:07,840 --> 01:48:11,599
Speaker 2: a target on their back last year, it's ten times

2022
01:48:11,680 --> 01:48:16,080
Speaker 2: worse this year. And in doing so, the Cincinnati Bengals,

2023
01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:19,840
Speaker 2: who promised to be a chief competitor, and the Baltimore Ravens,

2024
01:48:19,840 --> 01:48:23,360
Speaker 2: who were a chief competitor last year, they've added reinforcements

2025
01:48:23,439 --> 01:48:26,880
Speaker 2: that are completely designed to beat the Chiefs. So the

2026
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:29,479
Speaker 2: Chiefs are gonna need a great season. They're gonna need

2027
01:48:29,520 --> 01:48:32,599
Speaker 2: to stay healthy, they're gonna need metal fortitude. They must

2028
01:48:32,680 --> 01:48:37,240
Speaker 2: guard against any of the distractions that just happened. They

2029
01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:39,680
Speaker 2: just happened because it's the National Football League and they're

2030
01:48:39,680 --> 01:48:42,080
Speaker 2: in the white hot spotlight. They're gonna be on National

2031
01:48:42,160 --> 01:48:43,840
Speaker 2: TV a lot, and they're gonna have to have a

2032
01:48:43,920 --> 01:48:46,800
Speaker 2: little bit of good luck too. All Right, the key

2033
01:48:46,960 --> 01:48:50,040
Speaker 2: is so far and fingers crossed. You want everybody to

2034
01:48:50,120 --> 01:48:53,960
Speaker 2: be healthy for all the teams. So far, the Chiefs

2035
01:48:54,040 --> 01:48:56,519
Speaker 2: honestly have managed to avoid serious injury to any of

2036
01:48:56,520 --> 01:49:01,240
Speaker 2: their star players. Durability is everything, and their core players

2037
01:49:01,360 --> 01:49:05,080
Speaker 2: aren't necessarily getting any younger. So it will do this

2038
01:49:05,200 --> 01:49:09,200
Speaker 2: over the month of August. But for me, right now,

2039
01:49:09,280 --> 01:49:13,240
Speaker 2: the two biggest storylines are the return of Aaron Rodgers

2040
01:49:14,120 --> 01:49:17,000
Speaker 2: and the Kansas City Chiefs. Can they in fact? Three

2041
01:49:17,080 --> 01:49:22,360
Speaker 2: pet two things will be watching intently coming up. Last

2042
01:49:22,400 --> 01:49:25,599
Speaker 2: week I talked about that monumental seventy six billion dollar

2043
01:49:25,800 --> 01:49:30,679
Speaker 2: NBA media ride steal. They were dancing in the aisles about. Well,

2044
01:49:31,560 --> 01:49:36,080
Speaker 2: there's some news emerging and has the good feeling morphed

2045
01:49:36,120 --> 01:49:42,000
Speaker 2: into uncertainty and hurt feelings and possible litigation. I'll explain

2046
01:49:42,040 --> 01:49:44,519
Speaker 2: to you what's going on there. I'm Bernie Frattlewer come

2047
01:49:44,560 --> 01:49:46,679
Speaker 2: to you live from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio

2048
01:49:46,720 --> 01:49:49,160
Speaker 2: Tirack dot Com studios. Keep it locked right here. You're

2049
01:49:49,160 --> 01:49:51,120
Speaker 2: listening to the Bernie Fratter Show on Fox Sports Radio.

2050
01:49:52,360 --> 01:49:54,719
Speaker 2: How right back on the Bernie Fratter Show, Fox Sports Radio,

2051
01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:57,280
Speaker 2: Come to live from the tirac dot Com studios here

2052
01:49:57,960 --> 01:50:01,920
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas. Come up in fifteen minutes, top of

2053
01:50:01,960 --> 01:50:05,760
Speaker 2: the hour, the Dance Sensation sweep of the Nation. What

2054
01:50:05,920 --> 01:50:08,800
Speaker 2: kind of brand new fool of you? Followed by what

2055
01:50:09,040 --> 01:50:11,760
Speaker 2: my name? All? Right? Last week we reported on this

2056
01:50:11,920 --> 01:50:20,160
Speaker 2: incredibly lucrative new NBA media rights deal and the only

2057
01:50:20,240 --> 01:50:22,400
Speaker 2: thing that was left open, I think for a discussion

2058
01:50:22,520 --> 01:50:26,160
Speaker 2: was whether or not T and T would you know,

2059
01:50:26,800 --> 01:50:30,400
Speaker 2: perhaps match one of the media rights contracts, and that's

2060
01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:34,559
Speaker 2: remained part of the game. But the different packages. There

2061
01:50:34,560 --> 01:50:40,040
Speaker 2: were three total packages involving i think Disney, Comcast, NBC

2062
01:50:40,200 --> 01:50:44,040
Speaker 2: Universal and Amazon seventy six billion dollars over eleven years,

2063
01:50:44,600 --> 01:50:47,120
Speaker 2: being with a twenty five to twenty six season and

2064
01:50:47,240 --> 01:50:49,439
Speaker 2: by the way, it even includes WNBA game which is

2065
01:50:49,520 --> 01:50:51,600
Speaker 2: now worth two point two billion of the totals. They

2066
01:50:52,280 --> 01:50:57,000
Speaker 2: got their flowers last night, and the next steps are

2067
01:50:57,080 --> 01:51:05,240
Speaker 2: still taking place. One of the unresolved aspects of this TNT,

2068
01:51:05,400 --> 01:51:08,120
Speaker 2: which has been home to the Inside the NBA, that

2069
01:51:08,240 --> 01:51:11,519
Speaker 2: was the popular NBA studio show of course, that has

2070
01:51:11,640 --> 01:51:15,599
Speaker 2: Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley Kenny Smith Shack Barkley said

2071
01:51:15,640 --> 01:51:17,920
Speaker 2: he retires to He plans to retire from the show

2072
01:51:18,360 --> 01:51:20,360
Speaker 2: after next season, no matter the outcome of the media

2073
01:51:20,400 --> 01:51:24,320
Speaker 2: writes deal. But I don't know if I totally believe that.

2074
01:51:25,240 --> 01:51:27,080
Speaker 2: But losing the NBA would be a bit of a

2075
01:51:27,120 --> 01:51:29,479
Speaker 2: blow for Warner Brothers and Discovery. They could lose about

2076
01:51:29,479 --> 01:51:33,600
Speaker 2: six hundred million in profit from advertising. But there's stockshures

2077
01:51:33,600 --> 01:51:35,559
Speaker 2: that follow this year, so this is a little bit

2078
01:51:35,600 --> 01:51:38,479
Speaker 2: of a prolonged process. But for the most part, it

2079
01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:42,120
Speaker 2: looks like a real boon for the NBA until earlier

2080
01:51:42,360 --> 01:51:47,120
Speaker 2: this past week. You start to hear rumblings and you

2081
01:51:47,200 --> 01:51:54,759
Speaker 2: know a week ago was you know, lollipops and Sunshine, Disney, NBC, Sports,

2082
01:51:54,840 --> 01:52:01,320
Speaker 2: Amazon celebration, the NBA celebrating more than their annual fees

2083
01:52:01,760 --> 01:52:06,280
Speaker 2: even though they've posted lower TV ratings in this media landscape,

2084
01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:09,240
Speaker 2: that's just a fact. When you think about seventy six

2085
01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:12,000
Speaker 2: billion dollars, Oh my god, that's an incredible amount of

2086
01:52:12,040 --> 01:52:15,880
Speaker 2: money over eleven years. And I've used this analogy before,

2087
01:52:15,960 --> 01:52:20,439
Speaker 2: but it's worth using again because people hear numbers and

2088
01:52:20,560 --> 01:52:22,920
Speaker 2: it's hard to context your lines. What those numbers mean,

2089
01:52:23,479 --> 01:52:26,640
Speaker 2: so if you started to count from zero to a

2090
01:52:26,760 --> 01:52:30,120
Speaker 2: million one second at a time, it would take twelve

2091
01:52:30,600 --> 01:52:33,559
Speaker 2: take twelve days to come from zero to a million,

2092
01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:36,599
Speaker 2: one second at a time. If you want to come

2093
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:39,640
Speaker 2: from zero to a billion one billion with a b

2094
01:52:40,479 --> 01:52:43,960
Speaker 2: one second at a time, those twelve days jump to

2095
01:52:44,120 --> 01:52:50,439
Speaker 2: thirty three years, twelve days, thirty three years, one million

2096
01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:53,479
Speaker 2: to one billion. Now I'll make that seventy six billion

2097
01:52:53,600 --> 01:52:56,840
Speaker 2: over the next eleven years. And you're talking some real money,

2098
01:52:57,840 --> 01:53:01,200
Speaker 2: as Everet Jerkson one said. And this is a league

2099
01:53:01,840 --> 01:53:04,720
Speaker 2: doubling their annual fees even though they got lower TV ratings.

2100
01:53:04,760 --> 01:53:09,400
Speaker 2: So there's some risk here. But you know, Adam Silver

2101
01:53:09,600 --> 01:53:12,000
Speaker 2: is not getting the universal praise that I thought he

2102
01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:21,560
Speaker 2: might get. Apparently right now, until further updates emerge, the

2103
01:53:21,720 --> 01:53:24,560
Speaker 2: NBA's media rights deal is sort of the subject of

2104
01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:29,559
Speaker 2: real uncertainty right now and some hurt feelings and possible litigation.

2105
01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:34,519
Speaker 2: So what happened? Well, Silver confirmed last Tuesday that the

2106
01:53:34,680 --> 01:53:37,240
Speaker 2: NBA's Board of Governors approved the eleven years, seventy six

2107
01:53:37,280 --> 01:53:41,400
Speaker 2: billion dollar rights and they were meaning that that now

2108
01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:44,880
Speaker 2: advances to another stage of the process. The greemates were

2109
01:53:44,920 --> 01:53:50,760
Speaker 2: not yet finalized and the commissioner did not discuss some

2110
01:53:50,920 --> 01:53:53,960
Speaker 2: of the key terms and some of the participating networks

2111
01:53:54,439 --> 01:53:56,280
Speaker 2: because Adam Silver went on to say much of it

2112
01:53:56,400 --> 01:53:58,360
Speaker 2: is out of his control. Fair enough, I take about

2113
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:01,360
Speaker 2: his word whatever. But in this day and age, what

2114
01:54:01,400 --> 01:54:03,719
Speaker 2: do you think makes sports? What do you think creates

2115
01:54:03,760 --> 01:54:07,160
Speaker 2: these astronomical sellers we're seeing? It's TV rights, man, That's

2116
01:54:07,160 --> 01:54:09,200
Speaker 2: where the money comes from. That's where the real money is.

2117
01:54:10,479 --> 01:54:15,679
Speaker 2: So given the delicate nature of contract negotiations, rights deals

2118
01:54:16,360 --> 01:54:20,640
Speaker 2: and certain wars, when you get powerful networks involved, it

2119
01:54:20,760 --> 01:54:25,559
Speaker 2: doesn't surprise certain folks that there could be some infighting

2120
01:54:25,640 --> 01:54:28,760
Speaker 2: here and it may not be made a little ugly.

2121
01:54:29,680 --> 01:54:33,800
Speaker 2: So T and T Sports as of last Wednesday, they're

2122
01:54:33,840 --> 01:54:36,240
Speaker 2: the unit of Warner Brothers in Discovery. They hadn't been

2123
01:54:36,240 --> 01:54:41,040
Speaker 2: presented with the approved rights deals. The network, however, say

2124
01:54:41,080 --> 01:54:45,200
Speaker 2: they fully intend to exercise its matching rights. They're going

2125
01:54:45,240 --> 01:54:49,600
Speaker 2: to focus on Amazon's package and what form that effort takes.

2126
01:54:50,840 --> 01:54:53,360
Speaker 2: That will determine what the next step. And this is

2127
01:54:54,040 --> 01:54:56,200
Speaker 2: so for those folks concerned about whether or not ET

2128
01:54:56,320 --> 01:55:00,760
Speaker 2: and T would remain a players It is a broadcaster

2129
01:55:00,960 --> 01:55:04,320
Speaker 2: of NBA games, as they've been so capably over the

2130
01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:09,120
Speaker 2: years and again that you studio show with Ernie Johnson

2131
01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:12,960
Speaker 2: and Barkley and company. It seems to have become the

2132
01:55:13,040 --> 01:55:15,680
Speaker 2: gold standard. So not a lot of people were happy

2133
01:55:15,720 --> 01:55:19,880
Speaker 2: that that could potentially go away. So that apparently is

2134
01:55:19,920 --> 01:55:23,480
Speaker 2: still not completely decided. James Dolan, the owner of the Knicks,

2135
01:55:24,280 --> 01:55:26,320
Speaker 2: apparently he sent an angry letter to the Board of

2136
01:55:26,360 --> 01:55:29,600
Speaker 2: Governors this past week. He was arguing that the agreements

2137
01:55:29,640 --> 01:55:34,080
Speaker 2: are disruptive to local broadcasts that are still very critical

2138
01:55:34,120 --> 01:55:39,480
Speaker 2: to individual teams. I can see that point. Now, Adam

2139
01:55:39,520 --> 01:55:43,560
Speaker 2: Silver acknowledged that James Dolan's concerns were discussed among the

2140
01:55:43,600 --> 01:55:46,040
Speaker 2: broader group and they're trying to keep the issues in

2141
01:55:46,080 --> 01:55:50,080
Speaker 2: the family. And so it's uncertain whether the matter goes

2142
01:55:50,960 --> 01:55:55,600
Speaker 2: It's uncertain to where that argument ends up. But historically

2143
01:55:55,840 --> 01:55:59,320
Speaker 2: James Dolan is not a stranger to litigation and he's

2144
01:55:59,400 --> 01:56:02,480
Speaker 2: not afraid to pursue this. So now you got local

2145
01:56:02,760 --> 01:56:06,600
Speaker 2: TV rights, and I'm sure the good folks listening to

2146
01:56:06,680 --> 01:56:09,880
Speaker 2: this program right now on five seventy am in Los

2147
01:56:09,920 --> 01:56:13,600
Speaker 2: Angeles can understand that with the Lakers' local TV rights,

2148
01:56:13,680 --> 01:56:16,120
Speaker 2: that's an example of this. Okay, I'm just merely saying

2149
01:56:16,200 --> 01:56:20,440
Speaker 2: that there are some people raising their hand perhaps throwing

2150
01:56:20,480 --> 01:56:26,000
Speaker 2: a flag, mixing my metaphors as to this deal and

2151
01:56:26,120 --> 01:56:27,920
Speaker 2: whether or not the NBA will be able to perceive

2152
01:56:27,920 --> 01:56:30,280
Speaker 2: with lot some speed bumps. So we've mentioned T and

2153
01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:32,560
Speaker 2: T Sports, We've mentioned James Dolan and the Knicks and

2154
01:56:32,560 --> 01:56:36,600
Speaker 2: their local broadcast partners. What about NBA TV, what about

2155
01:56:36,680 --> 01:56:40,440
Speaker 2: NBA dot Com. Well, a big part of the focus

2156
01:56:40,520 --> 01:56:43,800
Speaker 2: around the league's media rights again been on the status

2157
01:56:43,880 --> 01:56:46,600
Speaker 2: of T and T Sports, but the division of rights

2158
01:56:46,680 --> 01:56:50,680
Speaker 2: among the various partners, and they want to embrace and

2159
01:56:50,800 --> 01:56:56,880
Speaker 2: push streaming. But a critical less discussed element of this

2160
01:56:57,000 --> 01:56:59,440
Speaker 2: whole negotiation has been what becomes of the league's and

2161
01:56:59,560 --> 01:57:03,760
Speaker 2: house media properties in NBATV, NBA dot Com. They've been

2162
01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:06,240
Speaker 2: around since two thousand and eight and they've operated in

2163
01:57:06,320 --> 01:57:08,560
Speaker 2: a joint venture between the league and T and T Sports,

2164
01:57:08,600 --> 01:57:12,200
Speaker 2: So what becomes of those entities, particularly if T and

2165
01:57:12,240 --> 01:57:15,480
Speaker 2: T Sports Besides what, we're not going to be involved

2166
01:57:15,520 --> 01:57:18,840
Speaker 2: in the NBA after all, Adam Silver didn't know. There's

2167
01:57:18,840 --> 01:57:21,920
Speaker 2: still too much in play. This is complicated. So the

2168
01:57:22,040 --> 01:57:25,800
Speaker 2: media rights deal is reaching some type of conclusion. Also,

2169
01:57:26,040 --> 01:57:29,240
Speaker 2: league expansion is assuming that there'll be a bigger focus

2170
01:57:29,360 --> 01:57:34,240
Speaker 2: with formal efforts now to begin to perhaps add two

2171
01:57:34,280 --> 01:57:39,360
Speaker 2: more teams. They're talking about Seattle in Las Vegas, and

2172
01:57:39,760 --> 01:57:44,120
Speaker 2: those are the primary focus, primary options. But now publicly

2173
01:57:44,560 --> 01:57:46,920
Speaker 2: there appears to be a rising concern within the league

2174
01:57:46,960 --> 01:57:50,760
Speaker 2: about how to divide this would bring a ton of

2175
01:57:50,840 --> 01:57:55,080
Speaker 2: new money into the league. How to divide this influx

2176
01:57:55,200 --> 01:57:58,320
Speaker 2: of money, this windfall from the new rights deals with

2177
01:57:58,480 --> 01:58:01,920
Speaker 2: the new incoming team own See how complicated this gets.

2178
01:58:02,400 --> 01:58:04,640
Speaker 2: So it gets a lot more complicated. Then you start

2179
01:58:04,720 --> 01:58:08,680
Speaker 2: to realize Adam Silver is juggling all these balls. He said,

2180
01:58:08,760 --> 01:58:10,640
Speaker 2: Just think of the new media deals, for example, once

2181
01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:14,120
Speaker 2: they're completed, when you're bringing the new partners that would

2182
01:58:14,120 --> 01:58:18,000
Speaker 2: be potentially Seattle and Las Vegas, you're diluting those payments

2183
01:58:18,040 --> 01:58:20,640
Speaker 2: to teams that are existing. No different than selling equity

2184
01:58:20,680 --> 01:58:22,920
Speaker 2: in a business. There needs to be a fair amount

2185
01:58:23,440 --> 01:58:26,640
Speaker 2: from the league office working with existing owners and who've

2186
01:58:26,640 --> 01:58:31,240
Speaker 2: been there all along versus the newcomers. So there's a

2187
01:58:31,320 --> 01:58:33,440
Speaker 2: lot of moving parts. We will continue to follow this.

2188
01:58:33,960 --> 01:58:37,920
Speaker 2: Hopefully you followed all that. It's not easy, come it up.

2189
01:58:38,080 --> 01:58:40,080
Speaker 2: You know what else isn't easy? What kind of brand

2202
01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:20,160
Speaker 2: We've come to that time in the week. You know what,

2203
01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:22,000
Speaker 2: you love it? You can't live without it, you see,

2205
01:59:25,120 --> 01:59:28,360
Speaker 2: lot by watching, which is exactly what we do on

2206
01:59:28,800 --> 01:59:32,560
Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show. Because certainly around the country, around

2207
01:59:32,560 --> 01:59:34,680
Speaker 2: this great land of ours, from sea to oily sea,

2208
01:59:35,560 --> 01:59:38,680
Speaker 2: and certainly around the globe, will people engage in activities

2209
01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:44,960
Speaker 2: questionable activities. Now, sometimes those activities are silly and innocuous

2210
01:59:45,040 --> 01:59:48,520
Speaker 2: and no big deal. But other times they are a

2211
01:59:48,600 --> 01:59:53,640
Speaker 2: little bit more serious and dangerous and can oftentimes run

2212
01:59:53,680 --> 01:59:55,640
Speaker 2: a follow the law can end you up in jail.

2213
01:59:57,080 --> 02:00:01,879
Speaker 2: But regardless, regardless of the activity, regardless of the behavior,

2214
02:00:02,240 --> 02:00:05,280
Speaker 2: any way you slice it, any way you characterize it,

2215
02:00:05,520 --> 02:00:09,640
Speaker 2: any way you describe it, these events always leave us

2216
02:00:10,000 --> 02:00:13,320
Speaker 2: scratching our head and asking ourselves, what kind of brand

2217
02:00:13,360 --> 02:00:20,200
Speaker 2: new fool are you? So?

2218
02:00:20,680 --> 02:00:22,640
Speaker 5: What kind of brand new fool are you?

2219
02:00:23,440 --> 02:00:31,040
Speaker 2: Well, this particular little escapade takes you to California. I'm

2220
02:00:31,080 --> 02:00:35,720
Speaker 2: not sure exactly what part of California, but it was

2221
02:00:35,920 --> 02:00:41,280
Speaker 2: in California. So follows a couple of young ladies we'll

2222
02:00:41,320 --> 02:00:45,560
Speaker 2: call the Miss Hall and Miss Banks. Recently, they decided

2223
02:00:45,680 --> 02:00:50,760
Speaker 2: they'd made little money, so they would rob a store. Actually,

2224
02:00:50,840 --> 02:00:55,240
Speaker 2: they robbed a nail salon, or actually it was a

2225
02:00:55,320 --> 02:00:59,800
Speaker 2: nail salon with a nail supply store. And somehow they

2226
02:01:00,080 --> 02:01:04,840
Speaker 2: managed to rob the place for about whopping six hundred

2227
02:01:04,840 --> 02:01:09,840
Speaker 2: dollars worth of merchandise. And as the young ladies were

2228
02:01:10,640 --> 02:01:16,560
Speaker 2: leaving in making their getaway. As it went, one of

2229
02:01:16,600 --> 02:01:21,160
Speaker 2: the young ladies realized she somehow left her cell phone

2230
02:01:21,160 --> 02:01:24,280
Speaker 2: at the store. So remember this segment's called what kind

2231
02:01:24,280 --> 02:01:27,600
Speaker 2: of brand new fool you? They decided to come back

2232
02:01:27,680 --> 02:01:31,240
Speaker 2: to the store just a few minutes after, and whichever

2233
02:01:31,400 --> 02:01:36,920
Speaker 2: lady it was, Miss Hall or Miss Banks demanded her phone.

2234
02:01:37,840 --> 02:01:41,760
Speaker 2: Apparently she dropped it during the getaway, so what After

2235
02:01:41,920 --> 02:01:46,520
Speaker 2: tussling with the proprietor, she got her phone back and

2236
02:01:46,800 --> 02:01:49,000
Speaker 2: proceeded to leave the scene in a black vehicle. But

2237
02:01:49,080 --> 02:01:52,520
Speaker 2: at that point the police had already been called, and

2238
02:01:52,600 --> 02:01:56,680
Speaker 2: the police identified the ladies in the vehicle. And what's

2239
02:01:56,720 --> 02:01:59,760
Speaker 2: interesting is when they caught up to them, they were

2240
02:02:00,200 --> 02:02:04,200
Speaker 2: outside their home where they live. About an hour later,

2241
02:02:05,360 --> 02:02:07,960
Speaker 2: in the car they used to make the getaway. Will

2242
02:02:08,000 --> 02:02:11,680
Speaker 2: police contacted them and reports say that all the merchandise

2243
02:02:11,800 --> 02:02:13,760
Speaker 2: was sitting there right in the car and playing sight

2244
02:02:13,800 --> 02:02:16,640
Speaker 2: as the two women were then arrested in and taking

2245
02:02:16,680 --> 02:02:19,640
Speaker 2: to jail. Of course, they were caught on the store

2246
02:02:19,800 --> 02:02:24,120
Speaker 2: surveillance video camera during the robbery and the cell phone retrieval, obviously,

2247
02:02:24,440 --> 02:02:26,400
Speaker 2: and the woman who came in demanding the cell phone

2248
02:02:26,560 --> 02:02:29,720
Speaker 2: reportedly assaulted the store's owner, who tried to trade the

2249
02:02:29,760 --> 02:02:33,080
Speaker 2: phone for the stolen merchandise. Didn't work out, But in

2250
02:02:33,120 --> 02:02:36,000
Speaker 2: addition to robbing the place, the suspect then threw the

2251
02:02:36,040 --> 02:02:40,240
Speaker 2: owner of the ground and escaped with her device. So

2252
02:02:41,000 --> 02:02:45,600
Speaker 2: Miss Hall and Miss banks, they posted bail no longer

2253
02:02:45,680 --> 02:02:50,120
Speaker 2: in custody, and ironically, the phone I'm not sure what

2254
02:02:50,240 --> 02:02:52,280
Speaker 2: kind of phone it was, actually was worth more than

2255
02:02:52,320 --> 02:02:55,920
Speaker 2: the actual merchandise they stole, which I guess explains why

2256
02:02:56,320 --> 02:02:59,560
Speaker 2: one of the ladies were so held bent on getting there.

2257
02:02:59,560 --> 02:03:03,840
Speaker 2: I think this may have taken someplace, taken a place

2258
02:03:03,920 --> 02:03:08,760
Speaker 2: somewhere near Los Angeles, but regardless, two women decide they

2259
02:03:08,840 --> 02:03:11,600
Speaker 2: need money. They go into a nail salon with a

2260
02:03:11,680 --> 02:03:14,760
Speaker 2: nail supply of all places to rob, make it out

2261
02:03:14,800 --> 02:03:17,840
Speaker 2: with six hundred bucks, forget their cell phone, return to

2262
02:03:17,880 --> 02:03:19,920
Speaker 2: the scene of the crime, go home, sit in front

2263
02:03:19,920 --> 02:03:23,360
Speaker 2: of their home playing sit stuck out like a sore thumb.

2264
02:03:23,920 --> 02:03:26,920
Speaker 2: Cops saw the evidence in the car, and now they

2265
02:03:27,240 --> 02:03:31,040
Speaker 2: in trouble. Miss Hall, Miss Banks of Los Angeles, California.

2266
02:03:31,520 --> 02:03:32,800
Speaker 5: What kind of brand new fools?

2267
02:03:32,880 --> 02:03:36,520
Speaker 2: Are you all right? Chef?

2268
02:03:36,640 --> 02:03:38,240
Speaker 5: You're up all right?

2269
02:03:38,400 --> 02:03:41,400
Speaker 8: So a while ago I had one about a tourist

2270
02:03:41,480 --> 02:03:44,640
Speaker 8: in Hawaii following their GPS down a boat ramp into

2271
02:03:44,680 --> 02:03:47,640
Speaker 8: the water. Well, it has happened again on the Big

2272
02:03:47,720 --> 02:03:49,919
Speaker 8: Island of Hawaii. This time they're saying it's a resident.

2273
02:03:50,240 --> 02:03:52,960
Speaker 8: An unidentified thirty three year old woman parking her car

2274
02:03:53,040 --> 02:03:55,720
Speaker 8: on the boat ram facing the water. When she told

2275
02:03:55,760 --> 02:03:58,880
Speaker 8: authorities her car wasn't working, then she decided to drive

2276
02:03:59,000 --> 02:04:02,760
Speaker 8: directly and to the harbor. So we've had two prior

2277
02:04:02,880 --> 02:04:06,600
Speaker 8: incidents in the same harbor of people following their GPS

2278
02:04:06,680 --> 02:04:11,160
Speaker 8: straight into it. Apparently seeing the water right in front

2279
02:04:11,160 --> 02:04:14,360
Speaker 8: of you did not act as a deturrent. What was

2280
02:04:14,400 --> 02:04:16,560
Speaker 8: it Michael Scott in the office who led the car

2281
02:04:16,720 --> 02:04:19,560
Speaker 8: right off a bridge and into the river? Same thing,

2282
02:04:19,880 --> 02:04:22,720
Speaker 8: same thing here, so unidentified thirty three year old woman

2283
02:04:22,960 --> 02:04:25,600
Speaker 8: in Hawaii. What kind of brand new fool are you?

2284
02:04:27,920 --> 02:04:29,880
Speaker 2: Well, you know, short and sweet. But do you have

2285
02:04:30,040 --> 02:04:33,920
Speaker 2: it all right? Ian Roddy, you're a veteran at this

2286
02:04:34,000 --> 02:04:34,960
Speaker 2: What do you got for us tonight?

2287
02:04:35,160 --> 02:04:37,520
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm happy to be back on this segment. I've

2288
02:04:37,560 --> 02:04:42,280
Speaker 11: missed it dearly. Also, well done Kevin on the office,

2289
02:04:42,320 --> 02:04:45,200
Speaker 11: shout out there. It was a classic scene. Michael Scott.

2290
02:04:45,280 --> 02:04:47,240
Speaker 11: The GPS told him to drive into a lake, so

2291
02:04:47,320 --> 02:04:51,880
Speaker 11: he did it. But anyway, my brand new fool. So

2292
02:04:52,280 --> 02:04:56,080
Speaker 11: our story today begins in Houston, Texas. So I want

2293
02:04:56,080 --> 02:05:01,440
Speaker 11: to introduce you, Bernie to a man named Sean Arnold. Okay, Now,

2294
02:05:01,640 --> 02:05:04,440
Speaker 11: Sean decided I'll call him Sean, not Arnold. You know,

2295
02:05:05,280 --> 02:05:08,200
Speaker 11: Sean decided to go out one day and pretend to

2296
02:05:08,240 --> 02:05:12,760
Speaker 11: be a police officer. Don't ask me why. Don't ask

2297
02:05:12,840 --> 02:05:16,240
Speaker 11: me why. Who knows how these fools' brains operate the.

2298
02:05:16,280 --> 02:05:16,680
Speaker 5: Way they do.

2299
02:05:16,920 --> 02:05:20,880
Speaker 11: But Sean had a whole uniform along with flashing red

2300
02:05:20,920 --> 02:05:23,960
Speaker 11: and blue emergency lights and allowed siren for his car.

2301
02:05:24,760 --> 02:05:26,680
Speaker 11: And his car was just a white Hyundai Santa Fe.

2302
02:05:26,800 --> 02:05:28,440
Speaker 11: So it's not like he had an actual cop car

2303
02:05:28,520 --> 02:05:31,160
Speaker 11: or anything. It was just a Hyundai Santa Fe. And

2304
02:05:31,280 --> 02:05:34,960
Speaker 11: he had his own sirens and flashing lights and all that,

2305
02:05:35,240 --> 02:05:38,040
Speaker 11: so you know, he was able to pass off as

2306
02:05:38,040 --> 02:05:42,520
Speaker 11: an undercover cop. So Sean was driving around Houston's Memorial

2307
02:05:42,640 --> 02:05:45,720
Speaker 11: area and he decided that he would try and pull

2308
02:05:45,760 --> 02:05:48,400
Speaker 11: over another car that was driving in front of him. Again,

2309
02:05:48,680 --> 02:05:51,160
Speaker 11: don't know what the thought process was here, but he

2310
02:05:51,280 --> 02:05:54,320
Speaker 11: decided to. So he turned on his siren and flashing

2311
02:05:54,400 --> 02:05:56,520
Speaker 11: lights and told them to pull over with his his

2312
02:05:56,640 --> 02:05:58,120
Speaker 11: trusty megaphone, which they did.

2313
02:05:59,040 --> 02:05:59,120
Speaker 9: Ye.

2314
02:05:59,360 --> 02:06:00,680
Speaker 5: So, But here's here's the kicker.

2315
02:06:01,400 --> 02:06:03,760
Speaker 11: The unfortunate thing for Sean was that the car he

2316
02:06:03,840 --> 02:06:07,960
Speaker 11: decided to pull over contained two undercover police officers, real

2317
02:06:08,080 --> 02:06:13,480
Speaker 11: police officers, so of course they arrested him, and it

2318
02:06:13,560 --> 02:06:16,880
Speaker 11: turned out that Seawan Arnold was already a convicted felon,

2319
02:06:17,000 --> 02:06:19,720
Speaker 11: and it turned out that this was at least his

2320
02:06:20,000 --> 02:06:22,360
Speaker 11: fourth arrest for impersonating.

2321
02:06:21,720 --> 02:06:24,600
Speaker 5: A police officer. Fourth arrests, fourth arrest.

2322
02:06:24,720 --> 02:06:26,960
Speaker 11: So he'd done it once in Houston already, all the

2323
02:06:27,000 --> 02:06:29,320
Speaker 11: way back in two thousand and one. Then he did

2324
02:06:29,400 --> 02:06:33,920
Speaker 11: it again the following year in Illinois. Then over a

2325
02:06:34,160 --> 02:06:37,880
Speaker 11: decade later in Missouri, he was arrested for impersonating a

2326
02:06:37,920 --> 02:06:41,240
Speaker 11: cop in twenty fifteen. So this guy, you know, there's

2327
02:06:41,240 --> 02:06:43,440
Speaker 11: people who are addicted to drugs, alcohol, this guy's just

2328
02:06:43,480 --> 02:06:46,720
Speaker 11: addicted to impersonating cops. Like he just cannot stop himself.

2329
02:06:46,800 --> 02:06:49,920
Speaker 11: This is an insane story. I thought it would be

2330
02:06:49,960 --> 02:06:52,640
Speaker 11: perfect for this segment. So Shawn Arnold, what kind of

2331
02:06:52,680 --> 02:06:53,600
Speaker 11: brand new fool are you?

2332
02:06:55,480 --> 02:06:56,920
Speaker 2: Man? Oh man? Oh man?

2333
02:06:57,800 --> 02:06:58,120
Speaker 7: That is?

2334
02:06:58,360 --> 02:07:00,760
Speaker 2: That is got a lot of layers on that one.

2335
02:07:00,840 --> 02:07:04,520
Speaker 2: And this guy, you know, I'm gonna put the Vegas

2336
02:07:04,520 --> 02:07:07,560
Speaker 2: sides of minus one sixty. He goes a fifth time

2337
02:07:07,640 --> 02:07:08,760
Speaker 2: to try to impersonate, right.

2338
02:07:10,000 --> 02:07:11,520
Speaker 11: Try to do it again. I think he's a dick

2339
02:07:11,640 --> 02:07:13,760
Speaker 11: to Houston cops. Whatever be on the lookout.

2340
02:07:14,200 --> 02:07:18,800
Speaker 2: All right. Well, that certainly concludes another rousing edition of

2341
02:07:19,360 --> 02:07:22,040
Speaker 2: what kind of brand new fool You, which now allows

Speaker 2: in Las Vegas. Coming up in just a minute. After

2585
02:21:00,640 --> 02:21:04,000
Speaker 2: the Chef's update Chris Prefet's World of Soccer. Lots to

2586
02:21:04,080 --> 02:21:07,760
Speaker 2: get to, but I want to give you a name.

2587
02:21:08,000 --> 02:21:13,800
Speaker 2: Cavin Sullivan cav a N plays for Philadelphia Union. He's

2588
02:21:13,840 --> 02:21:18,520
Speaker 2: fourteen years old. Made his debut the other night, shot

2589
02:21:18,600 --> 02:21:21,240
Speaker 2: down the field like a rocket, put a shot on

2590
02:21:21,360 --> 02:21:23,480
Speaker 2: goal with his left foot, then proceeded to go on

2591
02:21:23,720 --> 02:21:26,960
Speaker 2: ESPN Sports Center Live and give an interview way beyond

2592
02:21:27,080 --> 02:21:31,600
Speaker 2: the savvy and wit and brevity and levity of a

2593
02:21:32,000 --> 02:21:35,480
Speaker 2: fourteen year old. Just dude came from another planet. And oh,

2594
02:21:35,520 --> 02:21:38,720
Speaker 2: by the way, Man City, they want to lock him

2595
02:21:38,760 --> 02:21:40,640
Speaker 2: up when he's eighteen years old, even though that's three

2596
02:21:40,680 --> 02:21:44,440
Speaker 2: and a half years away. Pretty cool to be Cavin Sullivan.

2597
02:21:44,480 --> 02:21:46,800
Speaker 2: He's making five hundred grand a year playing for his

2598
02:21:46,920 --> 02:21:52,320
Speaker 2: hometown team, Philadelphia Union. Google the name, watch for him.

2599
02:21:52,680 --> 02:21:54,320
Speaker 2: I won't even tell you about the haircutter, what he

2600
02:21:54,360 --> 02:21:56,760
Speaker 2: said about his mom. This kid is too cool for school.

2601
02:21:57,280 --> 02:21:59,160
Speaker 2: Coming up Chris Profet's World of Soccer. But first we

2602
02:21:59,240 --> 02:22:01,800
Speaker 2: go back to our guy, Kevin Wyre at the chef

2603
02:22:02,000 --> 02:22:02,560
Speaker 2: with the latest.

2604
02:22:03,680 --> 02:22:05,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was a bit of a nervous ending for

2605
02:22:05,720 --> 02:22:09,120
Speaker 8: the US men's Olympic basketball team. They do get by

2606
02:22:09,320 --> 02:22:11,960
Speaker 8: South sud Dan one oh one, one hundred, but they

2607
02:22:12,000 --> 02:22:14,280
Speaker 8: were down double digits in the first half, and it

2608
02:22:14,320 --> 02:22:16,920
Speaker 8: took a late layup by Lebron James, who scored twenty

2609
02:22:16,959 --> 02:22:20,880
Speaker 8: five points, to get the men's Olympic basketball team into

2610
02:22:21,160 --> 02:22:24,080
Speaker 8: the victory column on Saturday. As for the women's Olympic

2611
02:22:24,200 --> 02:22:28,520
Speaker 8: basketball team, they fell to the WNBA All Star Team tonight,

2612
02:22:28,600 --> 02:22:32,600
Speaker 8: one seventeen to one zero nine, a Rique Ogumbawala scoring

2613
02:22:32,680 --> 02:22:35,560
Speaker 8: thirty four points. That is an All Star Game record.

2614
02:22:35,600 --> 02:22:37,800
Speaker 8: She had twenty one of those thirty four points in

2615
02:22:37,840 --> 02:22:40,000
Speaker 8: the third quarter and all of those scoring. All that

2616
02:22:40,120 --> 02:22:43,680
Speaker 8: scoring happened in the second half. Angel Reese had a

2617
02:22:43,720 --> 02:22:48,439
Speaker 8: double double twelve points, eleven rebounds, Caitlyn Clark with ten assists.

2618
02:22:49,200 --> 02:22:52,040
Speaker 8: Dodgers come from behind against the Red Sox for the

2619
02:22:52,200 --> 02:22:55,080
Speaker 8: second game in a row. Key k Hernandez with a

2620
02:22:55,120 --> 02:22:57,160
Speaker 8: game tying home run in the bomb of the ninth inning,

2621
02:22:57,480 --> 02:23:00,520
Speaker 8: Will Smith with the walkoff to help LA win it eleven,

2622
02:23:00,680 --> 02:23:04,240
Speaker 8: seven to six. The Brewers go to twelve innings against

2623
02:23:04,320 --> 02:23:08,240
Speaker 8: the Minnesota Twins before winning at eight to four. Out West,

2624
02:23:08,320 --> 02:23:11,480
Speaker 8: it's the Astros on top of the Mariners by a game.

2625
02:23:11,560 --> 02:23:14,840
Speaker 8: After Houston beats Seattle four to two on Saturday. The

2626
02:23:14,959 --> 02:23:19,320
Speaker 8: Mariners have now lost five games in a row, but

2627
02:23:19,680 --> 02:23:22,920
Speaker 8: the Pittsburgh Pirates trending in the opposite direction. They've now

2628
02:23:23,000 --> 02:23:25,440
Speaker 8: made it six straight victories, including a four to one

2629
02:23:25,480 --> 02:23:29,480
Speaker 8: win against the Phillies. On Saturday. The Detroit Tigers over

2630
02:23:29,520 --> 02:23:32,240
Speaker 8: the seven over the Toronto Blue Jays seven to three

2631
02:23:32,440 --> 02:23:36,040
Speaker 8: to make it their fourth straight win. And in the

2632
02:23:36,200 --> 02:23:39,920
Speaker 8: American League East, it's the Orioles ahead by two games.

2633
02:23:39,959 --> 02:23:43,440
Speaker 8: That's after Baltimore wins at Texas eight four, while the

2634
02:23:43,520 --> 02:23:45,879
Speaker 8: Yankees lose to Tampa Bay nine to one.

2635
02:23:46,200 --> 02:23:50,320
Speaker 2: Back to you burning, all right, Jeff, another baffle performance tonight,

2636
02:23:51,320 --> 02:23:54,720
Speaker 2: all right, at this time every week, well listen, whether

2637
02:23:54,800 --> 02:23:58,240
Speaker 2: it's in season or out of season, World Cup, Olympics,

2638
02:23:58,800 --> 02:24:02,040
Speaker 2: or we're just talking off the pitch, rumors, coaching changes,

2639
02:24:02,720 --> 02:24:06,040
Speaker 2: you name it, there's always news. They call it football.

2640
02:24:06,080 --> 02:24:09,240
Speaker 2: Around the world, we call it soccer. In the United States,

2641
02:24:09,360 --> 02:24:11,160
Speaker 2: we bring you Chrisphfett's World of Soccer.

2642
02:24:12,680 --> 02:24:23,240
Speaker 12: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drama.

2643
02:24:28,520 --> 02:24:31,920
Speaker 5: It's all here in this report from the world of soccer.

2644
02:24:32,400 --> 02:24:36,800
Speaker 13: Well, Bernie we it Man, even years are very very

2645
02:24:36,920 --> 02:24:39,800
Speaker 13: busy here in the world of soccer. We are finally

2646
02:24:39,920 --> 02:24:43,880
Speaker 13: at what I could possibly call an off season for

2647
02:24:44,280 --> 02:24:48,160
Speaker 13: men's top level soccer. Now that Copa America came to

2648
02:24:48,240 --> 02:24:53,000
Speaker 13: its thrilling conclusion Argentina over Columbia and euro Championship with

2649
02:24:53,640 --> 02:24:58,199
Speaker 13: Spain over England being the crowning moments where we finally

2650
02:24:58,440 --> 02:25:02,720
Speaker 13: finally put to arrests the seasons that were. Now, obviously

2651
02:25:02,800 --> 02:25:05,680
Speaker 13: it's not completely true. We'll talk about Olympics in a second.

2652
02:25:06,000 --> 02:25:09,520
Speaker 13: You know, we've got you know, MLS, Major League Soccer

2653
02:25:09,720 --> 02:25:12,760
Speaker 13: and Liga MX here in North America, so it's not

2654
02:25:12,879 --> 02:25:14,320
Speaker 13: like it's completely stopped.

2655
02:25:14,560 --> 02:25:15,760
Speaker 5: For one Leonel Messi.

2656
02:25:15,840 --> 02:25:17,600
Speaker 13: I'm sure he wishes he could get a little bit

2657
02:25:17,600 --> 02:25:20,879
Speaker 13: of a break, especially with yet another injury plaguing him,

2658
02:25:21,240 --> 02:25:23,720
Speaker 13: But for most of the top flights of the world,

2659
02:25:23,800 --> 02:25:27,400
Speaker 13: for Europe and for everywhere else in the clubs and nations,

2660
02:25:27,840 --> 02:25:29,640
Speaker 13: it is finally a pause.

2661
02:25:29,760 --> 02:25:29,880
Speaker 2: Now.

2662
02:25:29,920 --> 02:25:32,480
Speaker 5: I did mention the Olympics. They are coming up here.

2663
02:25:32,840 --> 02:25:36,360
Speaker 13: We're getting our first matches here in the twenty twenty

2664
02:25:36,400 --> 02:25:41,240
Speaker 13: four Olympics in France, in Paris here on Wednesday, Thursday,

2665
02:25:41,680 --> 02:25:44,560
Speaker 13: kicking off. I do get asked quite a bit by

2666
02:25:44,640 --> 02:25:48,720
Speaker 13: people asking me about men's soccer at the Olympics. To

2667
02:25:48,879 --> 02:25:51,720
Speaker 13: reiterate and in case you don't know anything about men's

2668
02:25:51,720 --> 02:25:55,959
Speaker 13: soccer at the Olympics, because of these European Championship tournament

2669
02:25:56,000 --> 02:25:58,920
Speaker 13: and Copa America that sucks up all of the greatest

2670
02:25:58,920 --> 02:26:02,000
Speaker 13: players out there, and because of the massive demands put

2671
02:26:02,120 --> 02:26:04,520
Speaker 13: upon them with the schedule and everything else. Again, we've

2672
02:26:04,520 --> 02:26:08,080
Speaker 13: been playing almost NonStop soccer since last August.

2673
02:26:08,840 --> 02:26:10,280
Speaker 5: The men's side of.

2674
02:26:10,320 --> 02:26:14,040
Speaker 13: The Olympics is actually a under twenty three format that

2675
02:26:14,160 --> 02:26:18,040
Speaker 13: means any players born on or after the first of

2676
02:26:18,160 --> 02:26:23,840
Speaker 13: January two thousand and one will be allowed to play,

2677
02:26:24,480 --> 02:26:28,119
Speaker 13: with a cavea that every nation is allowed three overage

2678
02:26:28,200 --> 02:26:32,080
Speaker 13: players on those rosters. However, usually those top players are

2679
02:26:32,120 --> 02:26:36,400
Speaker 13: playing again over in euros or Copa America or one

2680
02:26:36,440 --> 02:26:38,760
Speaker 13: of the other things, or just needing the break.

2681
02:26:39,480 --> 02:26:40,959
Speaker 5: It's fascinating. This is actually the.

2682
02:26:40,959 --> 02:26:44,800
Speaker 13: First year we have all players born on or after

2683
02:26:45,520 --> 02:26:49,600
Speaker 13: the twenty first century has begun, which is a little

2684
02:26:49,600 --> 02:26:52,760
Speaker 13: bit of a jarring thing to really consider. The United

2685
02:26:52,800 --> 02:26:56,440
Speaker 13: States is qualified they were through on the Conker CAF

2686
02:26:56,680 --> 02:27:04,840
Speaker 13: Under twenty Championship. They will be taking part, so will Spain, France, Egypt, Argentina, Japan,

2687
02:27:05,400 --> 02:27:08,000
Speaker 13: some of the ones names you've kind of come to expect.

2688
02:27:08,440 --> 02:27:10,840
Speaker 13: It's still a fascinating tournament, but it's a lot more

2689
02:27:10,920 --> 02:27:14,080
Speaker 13: of but with only sixteen teams in it and on

2690
02:27:14,200 --> 02:27:16,560
Speaker 13: the under twenty three format, it's a lot more of

2691
02:27:16,680 --> 02:27:21,240
Speaker 13: a look into the future, into prospects that might be

2692
02:27:21,360 --> 02:27:25,320
Speaker 13: coming up might join the full men's roster, especially as

2693
02:27:25,360 --> 02:27:27,720
Speaker 13: we look to the future of the US Federation and

2694
02:27:27,840 --> 02:27:31,520
Speaker 13: the US men's team post Greg Berholter. It should be

2695
02:27:31,560 --> 02:27:34,880
Speaker 13: something interesting to keep an eye on there. And as

2696
02:27:34,959 --> 02:27:37,199
Speaker 13: much as I know that in the past, Killian Embape

2697
02:27:37,440 --> 02:27:40,880
Speaker 13: did express his wish to play in the Olympics being

2698
02:27:40,959 --> 02:27:44,200
Speaker 13: held in Paris, and he would be one of those

2699
02:27:44,240 --> 02:27:47,640
Speaker 13: overage players at age twenty five, but he, of course,

2700
02:27:47,800 --> 02:27:50,240
Speaker 13: through all of this and with the new signing at

2701
02:27:50,280 --> 02:27:53,760
Speaker 13: Real Madrid, will not be in the Olympics. Honestly, well

2702
02:27:53,840 --> 02:27:57,280
Speaker 13: earned rest for him, especially with a very big season

2703
02:27:57,320 --> 02:27:59,320
Speaker 13: coming up with him with Real Madrid. But what about

2704
02:27:59,360 --> 02:28:01,520
Speaker 13: the women's side the game, Well, the women's side is

2705
02:28:01,680 --> 02:28:04,879
Speaker 13: a full tournament at the Olympics. One of the benefits

2706
02:28:04,879 --> 02:28:07,840
Speaker 13: of the women's game not having these giant tournaments. I

2707
02:28:08,480 --> 02:28:11,600
Speaker 13: like the men's Euro or the Men's copa that takes

2708
02:28:11,879 --> 02:28:14,959
Speaker 13: so much importance on the senior side, it has allowed

2709
02:28:15,000 --> 02:28:18,039
Speaker 13: for the Olympics to be a sort of secondary tournament

2710
02:28:18,160 --> 02:28:21,520
Speaker 13: past the Women's World Cup. Not probably of the same importance,

2711
02:28:21,560 --> 02:28:24,320
Speaker 13: certainly not with the same number of teams, but certainly

2712
02:28:24,800 --> 02:28:28,000
Speaker 13: one that people will tune into, one where the top.

2713
02:28:27,920 --> 02:28:29,400
Speaker 5: Players will be going there.

2714
02:28:29,600 --> 02:28:32,680
Speaker 13: And for the United States women's team, they are unfortunately

2715
02:28:32,840 --> 02:28:36,240
Speaker 13: in the group of death. They have drawn a group

2716
02:28:36,360 --> 02:28:40,840
Speaker 13: with themselves, Zambia, Germany, and Australia.

2717
02:28:41,120 --> 02:28:41,680
Speaker 9: Group B.

2718
02:28:42,840 --> 02:28:45,880
Speaker 13: Germany is I don't know how else to say it.

2719
02:28:45,959 --> 02:28:47,800
Speaker 13: They were the twenty sixteen gold medalists.

2720
02:28:48,160 --> 02:28:48,720
Speaker 5: They missed.

2721
02:28:49,360 --> 02:28:53,880
Speaker 13: They missed last time on some Double Jeopardy qualifying systems

2722
02:28:55,040 --> 02:28:57,119
Speaker 13: that was all based around World Cup placements.

2723
02:28:57,120 --> 02:28:58,760
Speaker 5: It's very confusing to really talk about.

2724
02:28:58,879 --> 02:29:02,200
Speaker 13: And Australia is going to be without without their star

2725
02:29:02,320 --> 02:29:06,000
Speaker 13: striker Sam Kerr. She tore her acl back in January.

2726
02:29:06,120 --> 02:29:08,760
Speaker 13: But Zombia might be a very tough out in this group.

2727
02:29:08,840 --> 02:29:12,320
Speaker 13: Germany certainly probably favored to be at the top of

2728
02:29:12,440 --> 02:29:15,800
Speaker 13: Group B, not the United States. Germany favored to come

2729
02:29:15,840 --> 02:29:18,640
Speaker 13: out number one in this group, so the US really

2730
02:29:18,720 --> 02:29:22,640
Speaker 13: cannot really stumble at any point here, certainly certainly not

2731
02:29:22,800 --> 02:29:25,600
Speaker 13: after their last World Cup. And to be clear, I

2732
02:29:25,720 --> 02:29:27,960
Speaker 13: do not think this United States women's team is as

2733
02:29:28,040 --> 02:29:31,560
Speaker 13: dominant as they have been. That age of dominance is over.

2734
02:29:32,240 --> 02:29:35,000
Speaker 13: What about the World Cup champions? What about the women's

2735
02:29:35,040 --> 02:29:39,960
Speaker 13: team from Spain. They are in a similarly just stacked group,

2736
02:29:40,120 --> 02:29:43,400
Speaker 13: Group C. Keeping your eye on this with Spain, Japan,

2737
02:29:43,800 --> 02:29:48,680
Speaker 13: Nigeria and Brasil. This is a phenomenal group there, and

2738
02:29:48,760 --> 02:29:52,400
Speaker 13: we round it out with Group A that will have France, Columbia, Canada,

2739
02:29:52,640 --> 02:29:56,680
Speaker 13: and New Zealand. Very good tournament here for the women's

2740
02:29:56,720 --> 02:30:00,720
Speaker 13: side of things, certainly a lot to die into their

2741
02:30:00,879 --> 02:30:04,000
Speaker 13: and certainly a lot of attention given to them. Probably

2742
02:30:04,400 --> 02:30:07,039
Speaker 13: not as much attention right now as is being given

2743
02:30:07,120 --> 02:30:09,960
Speaker 13: to the men's basketball team for Team USA, but the

2744
02:30:10,000 --> 02:30:13,680
Speaker 13: women's team USA for soccer definitely someone to keep an

2745
02:30:13,720 --> 02:30:16,840
Speaker 13: eye on and certainly in the mix to try to

2746
02:30:16,879 --> 02:30:19,400
Speaker 13: get back to their old winning ways and bring home

2747
02:30:19,440 --> 02:30:21,879
Speaker 13: a gold medal and get back to that age where

2748
02:30:21,959 --> 02:30:25,240
Speaker 13: the United States was that dominant force in the women's game.

2749
02:30:25,680 --> 02:30:28,040
Speaker 13: As for the men's under twenty three, I believe France

2750
02:30:28,160 --> 02:30:31,480
Speaker 13: right now is the favorite, the home nation, and one

2751
02:30:31,480 --> 02:30:35,280
Speaker 13: who has always had some phenomenal, phenomenal young talent coming

2752
02:30:35,400 --> 02:30:39,480
Speaker 13: up through the years. Here, Argentina is not far behind them.

2753
02:30:39,600 --> 02:30:43,119
Speaker 13: Spain obviously should be a very interesting one to keep

2754
02:30:43,120 --> 02:30:46,280
Speaker 13: an eye on, although Spain will not be with their phenomenon.

2755
02:30:46,959 --> 02:30:52,040
Speaker 13: Lamin ya Mal, who was their star in Euros, a

2756
02:30:52,280 --> 02:30:56,640
Speaker 13: very young player, only about seventeen years old right now.

2757
02:30:57,200 --> 02:31:00,959
Speaker 13: He actually just turned seventeen a single day for the finals,

2758
02:31:00,959 --> 02:31:03,359
Speaker 13: so he played most of that tournament at age sixteen.

2759
02:31:03,440 --> 02:31:07,040
Speaker 13: He would qualify and his club Barcelona did give the

2760
02:31:07,120 --> 02:31:09,960
Speaker 13: approval to allow him to go to the Olympics. Clubs

2761
02:31:10,000 --> 02:31:12,480
Speaker 13: actually get the final say on Olympics because it's not

2762
02:31:12,640 --> 02:31:17,120
Speaker 13: really a FIFA thing. But Jamal absolutely deserves some well

2763
02:31:17,200 --> 02:31:19,560
Speaker 13: earned rest. Once again, many of these players have been

2764
02:31:19,600 --> 02:31:23,560
Speaker 13: playing soccer non stop for over ten months. Right now,

2765
02:31:24,040 --> 02:31:26,080
Speaker 13: it's time for some breaks for a lot of people,

2766
02:31:26,160 --> 02:31:29,039
Speaker 13: even a young star like Lamin Yamal, So it's time

2767
02:31:29,080 --> 02:31:31,400
Speaker 13: for some other people to shine here. Great time at

2768
02:31:31,440 --> 02:31:33,640
Speaker 13: the Olympics. I love the Olympics, Bernie. I've been to

2769
02:31:33,680 --> 02:31:36,560
Speaker 13: Atlanta and Sydney in my life. I really wanted to

2770
02:31:36,640 --> 02:31:39,920
Speaker 13: go to Tokyo when it happened before the pandemic. My

2771
02:31:40,000 --> 02:31:42,119
Speaker 13: dad and I are making plans to go to Brisbane

2772
02:31:42,200 --> 02:31:44,120
Speaker 13: one of these years, and now obviously coming here to

2773
02:31:44,320 --> 02:31:47,359
Speaker 13: La I love the Olympics. I love all the sports

2774
02:31:47,400 --> 02:31:48,960
Speaker 13: in them. I'm certainly going to be watching a lot

2775
02:31:49,000 --> 02:31:53,200
Speaker 13: of judo this summer and Olympic wrestling, and yes, there

2776
02:31:53,240 --> 02:31:56,680
Speaker 13: will be soccer in the mix as well. Enjoy the summer, Bernie.

2777
02:31:56,720 --> 02:31:58,680
Speaker 13: We'll see you next time on the World of Soccer.

2778
02:31:59,160 --> 02:32:01,960
Speaker 2: World of Soccer, Chris Purfett, and yes, the twenty twenty

2779
02:32:02,040 --> 02:32:05,880
Speaker 2: four of Paris Olympics. Upon US opening ceremonies next Friday,

2780
02:32:06,440 --> 02:32:09,320
Speaker 2: the twenty six, it will mark the first time the

2781
02:32:09,480 --> 02:32:13,640
Speaker 2: US men's national team, the men's national soccer team has

2782
02:32:13,760 --> 02:32:18,560
Speaker 2: participated in the Olympics since two thousand and eight. Looking

2783
02:32:18,600 --> 02:32:21,280
Speaker 2: forward to that, we'll see if they can fare a

2784
02:32:21,320 --> 02:32:25,120
Speaker 2: little better than they did in Copo America. It's I

2785
02:32:25,280 --> 02:32:30,160
Speaker 2: have no expectations for this team, none, and it's a

2786
02:32:30,240 --> 02:32:34,920
Speaker 2: tough tournament, a lot of very good teams, of course, Argentina, Spain,

2787
02:32:36,240 --> 02:32:38,560
Speaker 2: right on down the line, France certainly, as a matter

2788
02:32:38,560 --> 02:32:41,960
Speaker 2: of fact, the United States opens up against France, the

2789
02:32:42,000 --> 02:32:44,760
Speaker 2: whole country. They're ready to go in Paris, I know

2790
02:32:44,840 --> 02:32:47,120
Speaker 2: it was just there in May toward the place and

2791
02:32:47,560 --> 02:32:50,360
Speaker 2: went all around the Olympic stuff, and so looking forward

2792
02:32:50,360 --> 02:32:53,520
Speaker 2: to that here coming up next week, we'll see if

2793
02:32:53,600 --> 02:32:59,000
Speaker 2: soccer is making any headline for the United States. Coming up,

2794
02:32:59,160 --> 02:33:03,160
Speaker 2: the Group, the Group Echo Chamber, the Group Think Echo

2795
02:33:03,280 --> 02:33:08,160
Speaker 2: Chamber is at it again and they can't stop. They

2796
02:33:08,240 --> 02:33:12,760
Speaker 2: can't stop repeating this one narrative around Caleb Williams in

2797
02:33:12,840 --> 02:33:17,400
Speaker 2: the situation that he's entering with the Chicago Bears. I'm

2798
02:33:17,440 --> 02:33:22,320
Speaker 2: going to debunk that pretty severely. So coming up, we'll

2799
02:33:22,320 --> 02:33:24,800
Speaker 2: wrap up the show and we'll get to pressing topics

2800
02:33:25,040 --> 02:33:27,360
Speaker 2: like that. I'm Bernie Frattle. We are coming to live

2801
02:33:27,440 --> 02:33:30,039

02:33:32,360 --> 02:33:35,720

2804
02:33:36,000 --> 02:33:39,600
Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show, Fox Sports Radio. We're company live

2805
02:33:39,680 --> 02:33:43,680
Speaker 2: from the Tyraq dot com studios here in Las Vegas.

2806
02:33:44,720 --> 02:33:46,080
Speaker 2: Before I go any further, I want to thank my

2807
02:33:46,160 --> 02:33:49,160
Speaker 2: broadcast team back in Los Angeles. They have been with

2808
02:33:49,240 --> 02:33:52,160
Speaker 2: me since eleven pm Pacific time on Saturday night when

2809
02:33:52,200 --> 02:33:56,160
Speaker 2: I signed on. That would be Mark Ramsey our technical producer,

2810
02:33:56,760 --> 02:33:59,320
Speaker 2: turning all the Donalds, keeping us glued together. I and

2811
02:33:59,440 --> 02:34:03,879
Speaker 2: Roddy are executive producer, doing a great job. And the chef,

2812
02:34:04,160 --> 02:34:07,120
Speaker 2: Kevin Wirt, I know the updates. Great teamwork, great a

2813
02:34:07,200 --> 02:34:09,320
Speaker 2: guy has great camarader a good job. By the way,

2814
02:34:09,440 --> 02:34:10,800
Speaker 2: on what kind of brandon fool of you?

2815
02:34:11,600 --> 02:34:13,200
Speaker 7: And what my name?

2816
02:34:13,480 --> 02:34:15,800
Speaker 2: Never a dull moment? What the hell? What do you say?

2817
02:34:15,840 --> 02:34:17,440
Speaker 2: We do it again next Saturday night as well. And

2818
02:34:17,520 --> 02:34:20,560
Speaker 2: by the way, I will be on these airways, back

2819
02:34:20,680 --> 02:34:25,920
Speaker 2: on these airwaves next Friday night at eleven pm Pacific time.

2820
02:34:26,680 --> 02:34:31,000
Speaker 2: That'll be Friday night, July twenty sixth. Plenty of high jinks.

2821
02:34:31,240 --> 02:34:33,920
Speaker 2: You know there will be trying to get Darren McKee

2822
02:34:33,959 --> 02:34:37,720
Speaker 2: from Denver on anyway. Look, the bottom line is this,

2823
02:34:38,280 --> 02:34:42,000
Speaker 2: there's NFL teams are in camp. The Olympics will be starting.

2824
02:34:43,200 --> 02:34:45,360
Speaker 2: I'm on record they're gonna win the gold medal. Okay,

2825
02:34:45,440 --> 02:34:48,320
Speaker 2: let's not overreact to what happened to South Sudan. This

2826
02:34:48,520 --> 02:34:51,480
Speaker 2: is the world we're in. In the NBA, they come

2827
02:34:51,560 --> 02:34:53,320
Speaker 2: and go as they please, they play with their food.

2828
02:34:54,080 --> 02:34:58,920
Speaker 2: This team still has the depth, the rotations, the defensive intensity.

2829
02:34:58,959 --> 02:35:01,720
Speaker 2: When they decide they want them ring it. They underestimated

2830
02:35:01,760 --> 02:35:05,280
Speaker 2: this team. Top credit to salth Sudan. Top credit for

2831
02:35:05,400 --> 02:35:08,320
Speaker 2: their effort today and what they did. And this team

2832
02:35:08,440 --> 02:35:11,320
Speaker 2: is not the dream team. Sorry, you can think that

2833
02:35:11,480 --> 02:35:14,120
Speaker 2: all you want, but you probably didn't see the dream team.

2834
02:35:14,360 --> 02:35:19,960
Speaker 2: I did, all right. Caleb Williams is already in the

2835
02:35:20,000 --> 02:35:22,040
Speaker 2: news every day and is that yet to take a snap?

2836
02:35:22,160 --> 02:35:26,600
Speaker 2: And one of the latest of the group think echo

2837
02:35:26,720 --> 02:35:30,160
Speaker 2: chamber narratives that's making its way around the water cooler

2838
02:35:30,400 --> 02:35:36,520
Speaker 2: is it is now being maimed about that Caleb Williams

2839
02:35:36,640 --> 02:35:39,320
Speaker 2: is being gifted one of these incredibly good situations as

2840
02:35:39,360 --> 02:35:42,959
Speaker 2: he makes his way to Chicago. He's got DJ Moore

2841
02:35:43,040 --> 02:35:45,240
Speaker 2: and Keenan Allen to catch his passes. He's got Roma

2842
02:35:45,280 --> 02:35:50,160
Speaker 2: Dunesa YadA YadA yah. And people have gone so far

2843
02:35:50,200 --> 02:35:53,039
Speaker 2: as to say he was placed in the best situation

2844
02:35:53,240 --> 02:35:55,920
Speaker 2: for a quarterback taken early in the NFL draft, or

2845
02:35:56,080 --> 02:36:01,720
Speaker 2: a rookie quarterback. And I think I heard Mena Kaims

2846
02:36:01,760 --> 02:36:04,480
Speaker 2: say this. I don't want to pin her down on it,

2847
02:36:04,600 --> 02:36:07,840
Speaker 2: but she implied that maybe the best of all time.

2848
02:36:08,959 --> 02:36:13,400
Speaker 2: Maybe I misheard that. Come on, man, come on please,

2849
02:36:13,920 --> 02:36:16,760
Speaker 2: And I understand there was an article in the ESPN.

2850
02:36:17,320 --> 02:36:19,040
Speaker 2: They only went back thirty years. Well, I'm going to

2851
02:36:19,120 --> 02:36:21,119
Speaker 2: go back to nineteen eighty three. No one will ever

2852
02:36:21,280 --> 02:36:25,400
Speaker 2: inherit anything close to what Dan Marino inherited. And let's

2853
02:36:25,480 --> 02:36:28,000
Speaker 2: make it abundantly clear. He made the most of it.

2854
02:36:28,400 --> 02:36:30,480
Speaker 2: Spent sixteen years in the league, never won a Super Bowl,

2855
02:36:30,560 --> 02:36:32,720
Speaker 2: got to one Super Bowl, set all kinds of records,

2856
02:36:32,760 --> 02:36:36,119
Speaker 2: and was a Hall of Famer well deserved. Here's why

2857
02:36:36,200 --> 02:36:38,800
Speaker 2: I say that Dan Marino inherited the best situation of

2858
02:36:38,840 --> 02:36:42,120
Speaker 2: any rookie quarterback making his entree into the NFL for

2859
02:36:42,240 --> 02:36:45,520
Speaker 2: a simple reason. First, he went to the Miami Dolphins.

2860
02:36:46,360 --> 02:36:49,400
Speaker 2: The Miami Dolphins had two Hall of Famers and they

2861
02:36:49,480 --> 02:36:53,520
Speaker 2: had been to the Super Bowl the year before. So

2862
02:36:53,760 --> 02:36:55,720
Speaker 2: the Bears haven't made the playoffs in a while since

2863
02:36:55,760 --> 02:36:59,040
Speaker 2: minchter Bisky was quarterback and the double doink. The Bears

2864
02:36:59,080 --> 02:37:02,880
Speaker 2: have been a dumpster fight. Sorry they have been. He's not,

2865
02:37:03,000 --> 02:37:05,680
Speaker 2: you know. So the Dolphins had been to the Super

2866
02:37:05,680 --> 02:37:07,920
Speaker 2: Bowl the year before when Dan Marino got there. Secondly,

2867
02:37:08,000 --> 02:37:10,480
Speaker 2: who was the head coach of the Dolphins that Dan

2868
02:37:10,600 --> 02:37:13,680
Speaker 2: Marito inherited? Don Shula, the winning his coach of all

2869
02:37:13,760 --> 02:37:15,360
Speaker 2: time So he goes to the winningest coach of all

2870
02:37:15,400 --> 02:37:18,360
Speaker 2: time with two Hall of famers on the roster, all

2871
02:37:18,480 --> 02:37:20,600
Speaker 2: kinds of offensive talent to the team that had been

2872
02:37:20,640 --> 02:37:22,960
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl the year before, and Marino was

2873
02:37:23,040 --> 02:37:25,080
Speaker 2: part of that draft in nineteen eighty three where six

2874
02:37:25,160 --> 02:37:28,120
Speaker 2: quarterbacks were taken and Marino was the sixth. He was

2875
02:37:28,160 --> 02:37:31,200
Speaker 2: the last behind all kinds of guys that you've already

2876
02:37:31,240 --> 02:37:36,000
Speaker 2: heard of, Elway, Kelly, you know, Todd Blackledge, blah blah blah.

2877
02:37:36,680 --> 02:37:39,960
Speaker 2: There were no expectations on Dan Marino back then. Once

2878
02:37:40,000 --> 02:37:41,760
Speaker 2: he got onto the field, he lit it up. So

2879
02:37:42,200 --> 02:37:44,600
Speaker 2: if you go to the Super Bowl winning team and

2880
02:37:44,720 --> 02:37:47,360
Speaker 2: you're coached by a Super Bowl winning coach who is

2881
02:37:47,440 --> 02:37:49,760
Speaker 2: the all time leading winning coach of all time, I'd

2882
02:37:49,800 --> 02:37:51,840
Speaker 2: say you're going to a better situation with all the
