00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 4: Look at it.

15
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,960

Speaker 2: Jason Smith.

17
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: Greetings, Welcome Inside, Happy Wednesday, The Clayton Kershaw Show with

18
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 1: my best friend. The first three batters of the game

19
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 1: for the Chicago.

20
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 3: White Sox.

21
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 1: As we are getting ready for history in Major League Baseball.

22
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw about to take the mound for the Dodgers,

23
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: three strikeouts away from the three thousand mark, which again,

24
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: maybe we'll see one more time in our lives if

25
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: Chris Sale gets there, but we're gonna see it maybe tonight,

26
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: and I'm surprised. It's it's the the odds are so low.

27
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 3: It's all.

28
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: It's eleven to one that he gets in the first inning.

29
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: I said, okay, three striking. He's not striking everybody out anymore,

30
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: but still eleven to one for three strikeouts in the

31
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: first innings.

32
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: Still audacious.

33
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 3: I mean, you look at the uh the immaculate inning

34
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 3: is five hundred to one, So if you really want

35
00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: to that's all it is.

36
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 1: I mean, there's how how many Immacula innings in the

37
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: history of the game of their bit it's only five.

38
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: I feel like they certain you know what Vegas. Hey,

39
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, you're scared.

40
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: Vegas is now scared because certain things that should be

41
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: much longer odds, It should be much more gambler friendly.

42
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 3: Oh no, no, we're.

43
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 1: Gonna set it lower because you know we got protection. No,

44
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 1: you know you're making enough bleeping money. There's new casinos

45
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: that go up every single day in Vegas. Almost cursed

46
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: right there. No, you get you can make the odds

47
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: a little bit longer on something like that to make

48
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: it actually worth the bet, Like Kershaw's striking out the

49
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: first three why it should be fifty to one? Why

50
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,959
Speaker 1: that he strikes out there? Because Kershaw is not a

51
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: strikeout pitcher like he was anymore. And even though it

52
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: is the White Sox striking he is averaging about five

53
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 1: a game. Okay, striking out the first three for anybody

54
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: striking out the first three batter should be a long

55
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: odds bet. But oh no, no, eleven to one. It's ridiculous.

56
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: It's I'm calling out Vegas for the way it I'm

57
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: calling out.

58
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 3: I'll have to go into what what those two odds are.

59
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 3: I'll get get in touch with all our Vegas before

60
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: they had out on their sojourns ahead of the football season,

61
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 3: getting some time in. But I mean, Kershaw is still

62
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 3: his strikeout rates, you know, per nine is still strong.

63
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: What is he at thirty? How many strikeouts in his

64
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,360
Speaker 3: thirty nineties? A twenty nine strikeouts in thirty eight innings?

65
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 3: A little lower rate than normal, but you know for

66
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: his career he's still better than one per inning.

67
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this, okay, this is not twenty fifteen Clayton Kershaw.

68
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: This is again five player. This is the bet is

69
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: tonight the bet is not a we can count some

70
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: stuff from earlier on bet back in the day, it

71
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: probably would have been seven and a half to one.

72
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: Okay, come on, it should be it should be at

73
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: least fifty to one. Yeah, so three or more strikeouts

74
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 3: and well it's fuzzy math that you're just throwing, just

75
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 3: throwing numbers at it at a way side. Well, I'm saying,

76
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 3: I don't want to say it should be a million

77
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: to one. I mean, although a million, I mean for

78
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: the first three. Oh, we got to protect ourselves. But

79
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: you sounded like Walt when you were doing your whole thing.

80
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 3: It's like, well, well, you know, if it was really

81
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 3: that long, then i'd bet it. He's like, well, if

82
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 3: it's such a sure thing taken at the five hundred

83
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 3: to one for the immaculate inning, Yeah, all right, three

84
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: plus strikeouts on the game ninety four percent implied rate

85
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 3: at minus sixteen hundred four plus strikeouts minus three point

86
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: thirty that is a seventy six percent likelihood. Six plus

87
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 3: is plus one sixty is over. Under for the game

88
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 3: is at four and a half.

89
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sorry your the game is four and a half, okay,

90
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: but but I'm gonna eleven to one that he strikes

91
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 1: out the first three.

92
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 3: Come on, Jason, if you realize the only thing that

93
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 3: matters right now is this game starting at seven ten

94
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 3: on the dot. Yeah, well he gets sick control that No,

95
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: watch out. He choked people out. Watch out man. By

96
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 3: the way, it is, it is the yammodo bobblehead die.

97
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 3: Let's have a moment to celebrate him. And you just

98
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 3: see Kershaw start turning purple. Yeah.

99
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: If he doesn't get it tonight, Frostburg, the Dodgers should

100
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: release him. If you can't get three strikeouts against the

101
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: White Sox, you should be released just in the middle

102
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: of the game. See I'd be secking the White Sox.

103
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: Cut Carlton Fisk in between double headers and the nineties.

104
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: He goes, You don't get it, you come out, you

105
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: just keep going. Yeah, keep that uniform, you know what,

106
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: Take that jersey off, take the hat off. You walk

107
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: out in your cleats and an undershirt. You can't get

108
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: three strikes.

109
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 3: If you're vent of all I'm going I'm telling all

110
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 3: my guys, can you bunt? Can you get some berry

111
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 3: bonds armor? Can you go up looking like you're a

112
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 3: member of the Transformers, Uh, you know that you're ready

113
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 3: for battle, and you stretch this as long as you

114
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 3: can and get a little bit chaotic. But would be

115
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 3: the twentieth pitcher in Major League Baseball history for the uh,

116
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 3: the circle of life kind of moment. There have been

117
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 3: one hundred and eighteen immaculate innings in baseball history, in

118
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: the history in one hundred and hang one hundred and

119
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,239
Speaker 3: ten against thirty five in almost one hundred and fifty

120
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 3: now enemy, really, in one hundred and fifty years of baseball,

121
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 3: there's been one hundred and nineteen of them. Okay, but

122
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: the odds for that is only what what is the odds?

123
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 3: One hundred and one, five hundred, five hundred and one?

124
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 1: Come on, man, really, come on, that should be that

125
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,239
Speaker 1: that should be ten thousand to one.

126
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 3: How about twenty thousand a week? The other is that

127
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 3: what what is the outcome of the first pitch? This is?

128
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 3: This is one that was pretty fun.

129
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 2: Uh.

130
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 3: If you if you go in and and let me

131
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 3: let me pull it up, because you're talking about is

132
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 3: it a called strike, a swinging strike, is it a ball?

133
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: Is it any other outcome? Is it a base? It

134
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 3: is an extra base? It all of those you can

135
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 3: bet on every one of those prop bets as you

136
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 3: flow through. Interesting, Yeah, you could really be a degenerate

137
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 3: with all the Clayton Kershaw he bets today, he doesn't

138
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 3: get three strikeouts to night or retire or so you know,

139
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 3: that's it. It's just kno gonna wow, you're retiring him now? Yeah?

140
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 3: I retire? Wait whatever it, man, I just can't. I

141
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 3: can cut print that. I mean I already put that up. Man,

142
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 3: I'll tell you well, because really anybody you know sunsetting

143
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: more and two thirds innings against the White Sox. Yeah,

144
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 3: how many strikeouts you have?

145
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 4: Two?

146
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 3: You're done? Turn turn it, turn it, turn in your

147
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 3: stuff out where you can take all the stuff out

148
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 3: of your locker or whatever's in there, and we're never

149
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 3: gonna see you again. It's done, done, absolutely done. Well,

150
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 3: will Clayton Kershaw record a win plus one.

151
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: Fifths fin if you can't beat the White Sox, you

152
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: should If he doesn't beat the White Sox and get

153
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 1: three strike cuts and he is taking the mound right now,

154
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw for the top of the first in against

155
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: the White Sox will bring you an update throughout again,

156
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: just three strikeouts away from the big number of three

157
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,679
Speaker 1: thousand and again he's gonna get there, maybe, Chris Saale,

158
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: and maybe that's it. For the rest of our lifetimes.

159
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: We may never see this happen. It'll happen tonight most

160
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: like again not he should retire.

161
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 3: All right? Place your bet whoa wow? Rosburg? Whoa hey?

162
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 3: First pitch taking strike, swinging strike or a foul ball

163
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 3: minus one forty five? Ball are a hit by pitch

164
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 3: plus one thirty any other out outcome plus twelve hundred.

165
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 3: A base hit is thirty four to one. An extra

166
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 3: base hit is fifty to one.

167
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: Tell Seacott to hit the first batter at to fix

168
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: it on anyone connects mister Rothsteine to this.

169
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 3: I come back and say you want that at plus

170
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 3: one thirty? You don't want that? Yeah, exact.

171
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: So again, a big night for Clayton Karsher will keep

172
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: you updated. But speaking of big nights, a big night

173
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: for the US men's national team into the Gold Cup

174
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: final and TJ clearly the US men's national team seeing

175
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: they can rely on Polisic and or Diego Luna when

176
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: it comes down to it.

177
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 3: TJ, did they include a an answer key to Diego

178
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 3: Luna's body art. That's a lot of stuff going on.

179
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 1: That's gonna be the most just that's gonna be the

180
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: most confusing thing on Twitter, because now you can't go

181
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: to Twitter or x anymore and see something trending and

182
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: get what it is on the first try, because it's

183
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: just it's the way the algorithms are.

184
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,320
Speaker 3: They're just stupid. It's just sure. But like seeing Diego

185
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 3: Luna trend like you're said, wait, why what happened in

186
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 3: it's pictures of Diego Luna the actor, then Diego Luna

187
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 3: the soccer player. The a brace for Diego Luna in

188
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 3: the first fifteen minutes of the game. And it wasn't

189
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 3: perfect against Guatemala tonight.

190
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: Like Guatemala they put on what once the United States

191
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: got that too, nothing lead, They kind of sat back

192
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: a little bit too much. Guatemala was able to keep

193
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on. They scored to make it interesting.

194
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 3: But had one disallowed. Yeah yeah, clearly offside done. Yeah,

195
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: two players off for sure. But well, I was tough. Unfortunately,

196
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 3: they have the eye in the sky that's gonna catch

197
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 3: you as opposed to the ars trying to hustle up

198
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 3: and down on a league weekend. But after an awful

199
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 3: beginning to the Gold Cup for the United States where

200
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 3: the the dedication of star players like Christian Polistic and

201
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 3: Robinson and guys were all out there. Hey are you know?

202
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 3: Why are they not playing? What's going on? Canada is

203
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 3: trolling the United States with.

204
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: All our guys are here? Oh wait, all our guys

205
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: are not here. That's why we lost.

206
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 3: Here's the United States into the Gold Cup final with

207
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 3: a lot of a B team. But this is the

208
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 3: big thing. They have done exactly what they needed to do,

209
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 3: because is now this team is Mauricio po Chattino's team.

210
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: He is now.

211
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: He is now the he is now the definition, and

212
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: he is the brand of United States Soccer, the USMNT.

213
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: He stands up to Polisic and the guys that didn't

214
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: want to come and what do you have? That big

215
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: same right before the Gold Cup started, I'm not a mannequin, right,

216
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: which I mean, what a great thing. I'm not a mannequin,

217
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: right you you you know, you don't get to decide

218
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: when you want to come play, So, you know, we

219
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: kind of threw that out there to the players who

220
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: we've said this, the players that the up and coming

221
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: stars have been anointed stars way too early, uh in

222
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: in in their careers.

223
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: They haven't done anything.

224
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: But yet, you know, you see Polistic and Robinson and

225
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: all these players, and and and and even when you

226
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: want to get even closer to Raina and his parents

227
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: getting involved with the team, where hey, you're not you

228
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: haven't done anything to be entitled. And so he put

229
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: his foot down and said, you're not entitled. You don't

230
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: run this team. I run this team. I'm going in

231
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: with these guys.

232
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 3: And clearly he's still got He's got a couple of

233
00:10:58,840 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 3: really good players are there to start.

234
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 1: You get some publicity. Now, you know, Luna a terrific

235
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: Tillman the other night, and you see how they're gritty,

236
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: they stick together, they have a lot more fight. Like

237
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: I seeing this team play. I see the change that

238
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: I saw when the women's team came back with the

239
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: triplets right with a try and when all of a

240
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: sudden we said, hey, when the three scorers are healthy,

241
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 1: watch out, this is what the team's gonna be built

242
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: on the next ten years. They show up for the

243
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: Olympics and all of a sudden, US is the big

244
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: bad bully on the block again, right, I see that

245
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 1: with this version of the United States team where hey,

246
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: they're gritty, they fight. They have talented players that are

247
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: now getting a chance because these other entitled players are

248
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: not there anymore. And this is the best of both

249
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 1: worlds for the United States. And why today was such

250
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: a great day and this has been such a great

251
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: tournament because now if you're one of those players that's skipped,

252
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: you're saying, uh, oh not that.

253
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 3: Suddenly it means Pochattino says, hey, you're not on the team,

254
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 3: but now there's competition, I have options. You better buy

255
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,720
Speaker 3: in to what I'm doing here and what we're doing.

256
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 3: You don't buy in, you're gonna be sitting at home

257
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 3: watching the World Cup. Next year sitting on your couch

258
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 3: watching the Red Sox win the World Series. This is

259
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 3: what he has done over the course of just the

260
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 3: past two weeks with the Gold Cup. Is that wow. Now, hey,

261
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 3: they have an identity which he has brought. He is

262
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 3: in charge of this program and there's players that he

263
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 3: can rely on. You hear him talk about some of

264
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 3: the players about how how great they are. How you

265
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 3: know Tilman, I mean he could he couldn't go on

266
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 3: enough about Tilman and how how great a player he is,

267
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 3: and now tonight, obviously it's gonna be Diego Luna is

268
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 3: going to be a thing and Freeze the big hero

269
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,559
Speaker 3: in the in the shootout the other day. So all

270
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 3: of a sudden, oh wait a minute, I better buy in.

271
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 3: So now there will be that for the United States

272
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 3: men's team. I feel more optimistic right now than maybe

273
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 3: I have any time in the last five years, all

274
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 3: because of what he's been able to accomplish in the

275
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 3: last week. Well, the old coaching back and forth and

276
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 3: fighting about direction, right, you had different agendas. You mentioned

277
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 3: the stuff with rain, I mean that smelled like any

278
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 3: ayso stuff you would have had or stuff you would

279
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 3: have dealt with with your daughter's team when you were coaching,

280
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 3: you know, parents getting involved in the infighting that you had,

281
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 3: so all of that got washed out and some of it.

282
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 3: Look at look at the effusive praise for the guys

283
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 3: that are there and that are performing, Like he's he's

284
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 3: gonna show you your flowers, but he's also not gonna

285
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 3: kiss your ass, right, So it's that nice blend. You

286
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 3: earn his respect, you earn your pt and if anything,

287
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 3: you get deeper out of this Mexico and Honduras now

288
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 3: up and flowing the final. If they play Mexico. They've

289
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 3: lost them five times in the finals. So you got

290
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 3: that hanging out in the balance, but you get a

291
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 3: new look, energized squad. I'm not a fan of parking

292
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 3: the bus. I got a two nil lead, I'm gonna

293
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 3: keep attacking. They got out shot twenty to twelve of

294
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,000
Speaker 3: the game, including absolutely obliterated the final, you know, eighteen

295
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 3: to twenty minutes of the first half if you go

296
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: into the raw stats and just flow of the game,

297
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 3: but enough to make it hold up. So yeah, positive

298
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 3: direction from a squad that we've wrung our hands about

299
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 3: for what going on three plus decades.

300
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,959
Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresca exit swollen Dome the Jason

301
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: Smith Show with my best friend Mike car I mean,

302
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: I feel better about this team now than any time

303
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: in the last five years. And sometimes it happens. Sometimes

304
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: it happens.

305
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 3: Over the course of two weeks, you do realize that's

306
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 3: the Gold Cup, not the World Cup. You know, I

307
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 3: know what we're getting ready for. Hey, the long road

308
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 3: begins with the first step Gold Cups in the world.

309
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 3: The tournament going on now, it's it's what we have

310
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 3: going there? Sucked in it? There's building.

311
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: Wow.

312
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 1: Okay, on, don't you go root for Canada? What's you

313
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: go root for Canada? Jesse March?

314
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 3: Go root for Canada? He bet that first pitch? Yeah,

315
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 3: he's just upset.

316
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 1: No strikeouts for Kershaw so far, White Sox runner at third,

317
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: two outs, top of the first thing again, three strikeouts

318
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: away from three thousand, but coming up next. Evidence that

Speaker 3: Sports Radio videos on YouTube. Well, Clayton Kershaw gets out

348
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 3: of the first inning for the Dodgers, not unscathed, gives

349
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 3: up a run, but Michael confordo with a leaping grab.

350
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 3: And I want to say this because he didn't really

351
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 3: have to leave, but he You're trying to figure out

352
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 3: the angle, right, I need I need a reverse angle

353
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 3: on that as to where he was relative to the wall.

354
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: He didn't need to jump, but you know the the

355
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: left field wall and Dodger Stadium, it's right at the

356
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: partition where it goes from the high wall to the

357
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: low wall. Probably would have been a home run if

358
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: he doesn't grab it so another, I mean, it was

359
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: a foot away and he saves.

360
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 3: The ending would have been for nothing. White Sox with

361
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 3: the lead, and you know, that's probably gonna be a

362
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,040
Speaker 3: short night for Kershaw as he chases three thousand, but

363
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 3: the Dodgers get out of it. Kershaw gets out of

364
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 3: the first inning down one nothing to the White Sox

365
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 3: and look just to you know, seeing Clayton Kershaw pitches

366
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 3: I have for the you know, the better part last

367
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: fifteen years, he looks like he needs to settle down.

368
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,119
Speaker 3: You're coming into this first inning. He just looks a

369
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 3: little bit jumpy, and see he knows the moment obviously,

370
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 3: it's a little bit more like it looks like he

371
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: needs a little bit more body control. He was up

372
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 3: in the zone a lot.

373
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 1: He is, Yeah, he was. He was very erratic in

374
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: the first inning. So I think he just he needed

375
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 1: that first inning and now probably likely because it's Kershaw,

376
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: he will calm down and be a much different pitcher

377
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: here going out for the second inning. Maybe you come

378
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: out it's all you know, the Dodgers, all the television

379
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: cameras are following him out. He's on the field at six,

380
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: twenty three, and here he is and warming up and

381
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: there's seven cameras right next to him while he's throwing

382
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: his last warm up pitch, like, okay, you got to

383
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: get the game to start. Sometimes you get the extra

384
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: adrenaline and sometimes it works for you at a couple

385
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: extra miles hour on your fastball, but sometimes it has

386
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: the opposite effect, where Okay, I'm really my thoughts are

387
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,560
Speaker 1: all over and I'm sure he is taking his time

388
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: in the dugout. He will be a different pitcher, a

389
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 1: little bit more control in the second inning.

390
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 3: Twenty nine pitches in the first nineteen for strikes, three hits,

391
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 3: allowed the earned run, and now the Dodgers at the plate.

392
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 3: But you know, as I said, Canford it with the

393
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 3: big catch, A big day for the ex Mets as

394
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 3: we were talking about, with a couple of all star

395
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: announcements that really did not make you happy. But this

396
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 3: is history, man, We're probably not gonna see this again.

397
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 3: Zach Granky's close if he wants to come out of retirement.

398
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 3: But other than that, you got a long, long way.

399
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 3: I hear people going, oh, this guy's gonna get them,

400
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 3: Like he's got three hundred strikeouts, he's pitched a year

401
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 3: and a half, Like, like, what are we doing? Yeah,

402
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 3: so again, we'll keep you up date.

403
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 1: You usually do stuff after Otani does something, but kershaw again,

404
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: three strikeouts away from three thousand, the Dodgers back in

405
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: the bottom of the first hitting. Meanwhile, I'd always say

406
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: I could be an NBA insider.

407
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 3: I can do all that. You've been declaring that a

408
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 3: long time. Yeah, Now I think.

409
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: The better job for me now in my fifties, Like,

410
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: I'd rather be a consultant, far less work, because sounds

411
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: like the greatest gig. Like, you show up, you have lunch,

412
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 1: you tell people what you think, and you leave. You're

413
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,920
Speaker 1: kind of like the wolf in pulp fiction.

414
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, you show up, you solve a problem, then you

415
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 3: get the girl, and you get back in your fastcar

416
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 3: and drive away. Here's here's my.

417
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 1: One thing about pulp fiction. What kind of party is

418
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 1: he at it nine o'clock in the morning.

419
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 2: It hasn't ended.

420
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 3: He's in tuxedos. Yeah, he hasn't ended the party. You

421
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 3: think it's an after pay.

422
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: He's kind of a big deal, you think, Yeah, but

423
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 1: that's a long after party for people in their fifties.

424
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: Because Harvey I tell was in this fan that's a

425
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: long after party. You go from whatever night it was

426
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 1: before at nine in the morning, even when I was

427
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 1: in my overnight after party, like by six, I'm like, okay.

428
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,159
Speaker 3: Guys, Jason, there's there's things you can you can maybe

429
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 3: ingest at a party, no, I know, to keep things going.

430
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 3: But there was a tell. It's part of the largest

431
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 3: the legend of him. No, he was not walking around

432
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 3: naked saying I did so many bad days. But no,

433
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 3: it wasn't. There was the nineties, man, there wasn't as

434
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 3: much stuff as there is now. This is the nineties.

435
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 3: What kind of party? And he answered the phone in

436
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 3: the first string, Hello, oh oh okay, well I'm gonna

437
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 3: put that's a special bat phone. So I guess he

438
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 3: is the wolf. And when the wolf, when you call

439
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 3: the wolf, when you call you know you're in desperate straits,

440
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 3: which means he's gonna get compensated. But Jeweles had the.

441
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: Wolf's number, so I got to think that, Okay, anybody

442
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: could have called them, like you know, I realized, No,

443
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta think.

444
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 3: That's reserved for special jobs. Em that that's only imparted

445
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 3: upon you. The break glass against the emergent because if

446
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 3: you're calling him and it's not something he needs to

447
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 3: come deal with, ye bet he beats your ass.

448
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: Well he did, and Marcellis did as you did, Marcellistic Okay,

449
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: Marcellus Wallace to go all right, So that's fine now, I.

450
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 3: Mean, and he's a guy that we we have lots

451
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 3: of questions of his origin story. Consultants would be the

452
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 3: best bleeping gig. You could be a big deal.

453
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: You know. Go back to the beginning of June. I

454
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: know you put this on social media earlier today. The

455
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: odds were up there on June seventeenth. No, no, go

456
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: back to June third, Okay, oh yeah, June third when

457
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: the Knicks fired Tips and I said, okay, they kind

458
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: of had to. He took him as far as they did.

459
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: I get it. It's difficult. Who is the guy? I said,

460
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: Mike Brown, I said, go get Mike Brown is the guy.

461
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: And again the laundry list of stuff Mike Brown has

462
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 1: coached in big situations before. He's coach Lebron. He's coach

463
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,360
Speaker 1: Steph Curry and Draymond and Clay and Pal Gasol, Duncan

464
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: Jenobli some as an assistant some as a head coach.

465
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 1: He's got a really good defensive system. Offensively, what he

466
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: likes to do fits with what the Knicks want to do.

467
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: He is a perfect choice. He's a perfect choice. And

468
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 1: I said, go get him. He's the guy to go get.

469
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 3: What did I do that? And in two minutes I

470
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,880
Speaker 3: gave you Mike Brown? But what did the Knicks to? No, no, no,

471
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 3: we're gonna.

472
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: Call other teams and embarrass ourselves because they're gonna say no,

473
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: we're not giving you permission to talk to our head coach.

474
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 1: So the Knicks look like it's not a destination. Oh

475
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: but now, okay, now they go through it.

476
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 3: What do they do? They talk to Mike Brown, right,

477
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 3: they interview Mike Brown, They interview Taylor Jenkins. You were

478
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 3: on Taylor Jenkins. They talked to a couple other guys,

479
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 3: Mike and Norri. And now we get the story today

480
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 3: that Mike Brown will be named the knicks next head coach.

481
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: This source is telling ESPN and Shampstererania on Wednesday that

482
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 3: they will be hiring him, a two time Coach of

483
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 3: the Year, and he's the best choice first of all

484
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 3: for me. For a second, consultant. No, I mean I

485
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 3: did put it up up on accident. I'm sorry I

486
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 3: didn't get the specificity there. I knew. I knew the

487
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 3: seventeenth because it's a date. We'd been talking about a bunch,

488
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 3: but certainly with Mike Brown. We hadn't done the specificity

489
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,119
Speaker 3: of the June third day for you in a while,

490
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 3: so it wasn't top of mind. And then my coffee

491
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 3: order was ready, so I hit send and grabbed my

492
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 3: coffee and scurried out the door. So I apologize for

493
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 3: not giving you that you were on it for two weeks,

494
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 3: because that's two weeks of time saved. Now in the end,

495
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,679
Speaker 3: I still don't think they look dumb in all of it,

496
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 3: because guess what, Mike Brown was sitting there twiddling his

497
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 3: thumbs waiting for that call to come. Okay, but I

498
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 3: do have to ask this two time Coach of the

499
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 3: Year undisputed resume a lot of wins on there. He's

500
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 3: also been dismissed from a lot of places. Yeah, well, look,

501
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 3: guys that win NBA titles get fired out. It's kind

502
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 3: of how it goes. That's why it's gonna fast there. Yeah,

503
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 3: like ten years ago, it was there's not many guys

504
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 3: that have won titles. Well this is you know, because

505
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 3: the Lakers won so many and Greg Poppich would win

506
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 3: won every forty every presidential election they win, they win

507
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 3: a championship. So it wasn't a lot of guys out there.

508
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 3: What did take the other thing? Now there's more guys

509
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 3: out there that I've won that after a couple of years.

510
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 3: Hey sorry, uh were your star doesn't all beat it?

511
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 3: So that's just the way it is.

512
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: That that that I'm not as worried about as I

513
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 1: was years ago because now that's just the way teams

514
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: do business.

515
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 3: Still the Knick Show. So now he's got to deal

516
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 3: with James Dolan and he's can he get Kat and

517
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 3: Brunson to buy in? And then he leveled defensively. That

518
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 3: is the billion dollar question? What are they worth? Ten

519
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 3: billion dollars or thereabouts fifteen if you include MSG. I've

520
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 3: that can he get this roster? And I'm curious to

521
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 3: see what what happens now that we hit this next

522
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 3: phase that you'll actually install a coach, some talent off

523
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 3: the board, but still a lot of chess pieces to move,

524
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 3: a lot of stars still with their wandering eye of

525
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 3: where they may look for the grass being greener. But

526
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 3: I can tell you this by just hiring a head coach,

527
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 3: you are now the favorites in the East. I know

528
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 3: that wasn't a big difference from where you were with Cleveland,

529
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 3: but this takes them over the top. Fifty grand. I

530
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 3: could have gotten you that fifty grand. That was a

531
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 3: million dollar hour basically based on we did the pro

532
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 3: ration right, you can multiply it by twenty. Now I

533
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: would have said, give me an hour. Well, you build

534
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: by the hour. Your doctor sheriff, I would give her

535
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 3: fifty minutes. I would have done for an hour. I

536
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 3: would have done three minutes to tell you, hey, Mike Brown.

537
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 3: Then I would have went, got a sandwich, come back,

538
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 3: you know, checked a couple of things in fantasy and

539
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 3: everything else, and it said, oh, an hour, it's an hour.

540
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 3: Let me text James Dolan Boom one hour, Mark, Mike Brown.

541
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,719
Speaker 3: Mike Brown is your guy? Well, I mean someone else's

542
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 3: is prettying up the language because you can't just send

543
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 3: the higher Mike Brown in a picture of him. Someone

544
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 3: else asked add, well, after an exhaustive search, are you

545
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 3: are you asking me there? Telling you Mike Brown go

546
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 3: get them.

547
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

548
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's what your assistant does during the hour

549
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 3: while you get your sandwich.

550
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 1: Mmm, okay, all right, that's fine. Yeah because then because

551
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: then you get a legitimate hour. I'm fine, because because

552
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 1: you also have an output other than you texting and

553
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: number brown, what brown?

554
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 3: What brown?

555
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 2: Is your man?

556
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 3: I'm not giving you a million dollars.

557
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: I mean, and you wouldn't have had all the crazy

558
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,959
Speaker 1: embarrassment permission asking stuff that went on.

559
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 3: But I will say that, See, I still like that.

560
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 3: I might be the only guy that like that.

561
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,959
Speaker 1: I agree with you that once the Knicks realized, okay,

562
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: these these guys telling us, no, we have to go

563
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 1: away from that, right, I get that, and they sort

564
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 1: of got back the hey, okay, the Knicks is a destination.

565
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: You see the injuries that are going on, what teams

566
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: are doing in free agency. The Knicks got back there

567
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 1: bit of hey, this is now a destination again. Now

568
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: obviously you can you can say, hey, we tried. Maybe

569
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: these guys would have said yes, but the tea said no.

570
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 1: But it's still embarrassing to say, hey, we like to

571
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: talk to them and not getting permission because all the

572
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,680
Speaker 1: coach had to say was yes, Hey, I want to

573
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: talk to the Knicks. And suddenly, well, guess what, that

574
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: guy's gotta leave because you can't go back.

575
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 3: Well, but that's also a guy that you may decide

576
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 3: you don't want to hire. So they got to decide.

577
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 3: They're on steady ground speaking about that. Sorry man, but yeah,

578
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 3: we don't like you. I know you can't go back

579
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 3: to your old team now because you want to, but yeah,

580
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 3: we don't like But with the old team, though, is

581
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 3: they're gonna weigh of what else is out there? As

582
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 3: you said former coaches of the year, You've got college coaches,

583
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 3: You've got assistants waiting on the turn. Look, it's the

584
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 3: old if the price is right. We talk about compensation

585
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 3: for players and how many you know, pieces of confetti

586
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,959
Speaker 3: also known as second round draft picks. You'll give up

587
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 3: same thing for coaches. You want our coach, Yeah, if

588
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 3: he wants to talk to you, talk to you, because

589
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 3: if nothing else, you're gonna get compensation for it. And

590
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 3: if you think that guy's replaceable, oh yeah, maybe there's

591
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 3: a little schism in the locker room. Whatever, Why would

592
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 3: you not allow them to examine their options? Like I

593
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 3: think it was a win and all side, like, I

594
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 3: don't think it was necessarily an embarrassing look and.

595
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: Loss, you know, after it was embarrassing for a week

596
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: or so, and now it was and then it was okay.

597
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: Now they're talking to the guys they should be talking to.

598
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: They're talking to the well respected coaches, and they wound

599
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: up getting Mike Brown. And I I the one thing

600
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 1: that I want to say, because the one one thing

601
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: I can't believe that that's actually been going around is that, ah,

602
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: Mike Brown is not exciting. Why couldn't they do better

603
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 1: than Mike Brown? This is the guy that's been fighting

604
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: to talk about it. He's got ups and downs on

605
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: his resume. But I just want to say this, Okay,

606
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: who did you want? No, but that's the thing. Who

607
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: did you want?

608
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 3: To go get?

609
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 2: Don't say talking?

610
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,120
Speaker 1: We still said who did I want? That's not yeah,

611
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 1: well you did? Who did you want that Knicks fans

612
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 1: would want? Like?

613
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 3: Who did you want? There was nobody else out there?

614
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 3: The whole question, Yeah, Knicks fans, go go go Knicks fans.

615
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 3: Would you rather Mike else?

616
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 4: Who?

617
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 3: I mean? Well, but if you get all five of

618
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,479
Speaker 3: them to respond with Doc Rivers, we haven't unt I mean,

619
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 3: it's not statistically valid because it's not more than thirty.

620
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 3: But that's okay.

621
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,639
Speaker 1: If you want to tell me you don't like Mike Brown, Okay,

622
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 1: I get it. But sometimes you can only hire who's available.

623
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: It's like having the number one pick in the draft.

624
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 1: Oh we didn't get a great guy. Well, Andrew luck

625
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 1: is not available all the time at number one. Overall,

626
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: Cam Newton's not available at number one all the time.

627
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: Sometimes the number one pick is Jake Long, Right, it

628
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: just so happens, like you have to go with who's

629
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: out there, right, And there was nobody better than Mike Brown.

630
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: He was the guy from the beginning. And again, if

631
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: you don't like him, who did you want? Who else

632
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: was coming in to do it? He's the anti Tims,

633
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 1: He's a players coach. He's getting the blessing of because

634
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 1: you know it wouldn't be at this point if he

635
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: didn't have the blessing. He's been leading for a long time. Look,

636
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: Mark Medina told us this on Friday night that Hey,

637
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: all the people I've talked to said that Mike Brown

638
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: is fully in the lead for this, Like, I don't

639
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 1: know who else you wanted.

640
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's great to say, Oh, I'd rather have Steve Kerr.

641
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 3: I'd rather have Eric Spulsive.

642
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd rather have those guys too, but they're not

643
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: available and someone has to coach the team and they

644
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: didn't call me, So okay, if it's not me, where

645
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: I could do the show at night and the games

646
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: because like the games Len right before we go on there,

647
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: like it could work.

648
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,040
Speaker 3: West Coast have to take some time off. But like,

649
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 3: if it's not me, okay, then Mike Brown, Yeah, he's

650
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 3: a leader in the betting odds for a full two

651
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 3: weeks plus and now here we are. Jake Long number

652
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 3: one pick in the two thousand and eight draft, followed

653
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:19,040
Speaker 3: then by Chris Long, Saint Louis Rams, Matt Ryan third,

654
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 3: the Atlanta Falcons, McFadden, Dorsey Goldstin Ellis, and of Harvey

655
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 3: five Rivers draft. We picked six that year. I remember that. Yeah,

656
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 3: Gerard Mayo goes tenth. Sure, keep on going down. Joe

657
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 3: Flacco eventually became elite and away. For over forty years,

658
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 3: Tirerack's been helping customers find the right tires or how,

659
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 3: what and where they drive. Shipped fast and free backed

660
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: by free Road, has protection with convenient installation options like

661
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 3: mobile tire installation tirack dot com is the way tire

662
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 3: buying should be. The Knicks get their guy. He's the

663
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 3: best choice. I told you should have been him, done

664
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 3: and done. But time to find out what's trending in

665
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 3: the wide world of sports from Martin White. He's got

666
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 3: everything right now. What do you got?

667
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 6: I got waiting for Clayton Kershaw. He's got no strikeouts

668
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 6: going into the bottom of the second inning. So he's

669
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 6: pitched two, given three hits, one run, and again no strikeouts.

670
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 6: And you can kind of see the crowd in Dodger

671
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 6: Stadium every time he gets to that second strike and

672
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 6: at like whenever he doesn't get that third strikeout, there's

673
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 6: a collective Oh.

674
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 3: But they're getting some updowns in though, getting on their feet.

675
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 3: That's the benefit.

676
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 6: They are getting a little bit more exercise than they

677
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 6: probably would have expected to on a July day against

678
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,719
Speaker 6: the White Sox. It's one to one tide right now,

679
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 6: get bottom of the second ing, Will Smith with a

680
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 6: home run. Elsewhere in Major League Baseball, at bottom of

681
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 6: the eighth inning, the Cubs lead the Guardians five to three.

682
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 6: Top of the seventh, the Astros lead the Rockies five

683
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 6: to two rolls with a one nothing lead over the

684
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 6: Mariners top of the fourth, bottom of the fourth inning,

685
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 6: the Giants and the Diamondback San Francisco with a two

686
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 6: to nothing lead.

687
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 4: Earlier, the boys were just talking about it.

688
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 6: The New York Knicks hired Mike Brown to be their

689
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 6: new head coach. The Lakers expected to sign free agent

690
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 6: center DeAndre eight into a two year contract. The Memphis

691
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 6: Grizzly said they'll evaluate All Star Darren Jackson Junior's toe

692
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 6: in twelve weeks following the.

693
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 4: Turf toe surgery.

694
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 6: The Athletics report that the Warriors, Lakers, and Celtics have

695
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 6: reached out the free agent.

696
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 3: Guard Damian Lillard.

697
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 6: He's a free agent after Milwaukee decided to wave him.

698
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 6: The Hornets have signed Spencer Dinwiddie to a one year deal,

699
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 6: and Anthony Pocez just hit a home run in that

700
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 6: Dodgers game. So it is now two to one LA

701
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 6: with the lead in the bottom of the second, ending

702
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 6: on waiting for Kershaws to get his three thousand strikeout.

703
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 3: If it happens today, he's got three to go back

704
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 3: to you guys.

Speaker 2: pm Pacific, Fox Sports Radio.

715
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: Welcome inside the Jason Smith Show with my best friend

716
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 1: Mike Harmon. Uh, so far, Clayton Kershaw is just giving

717
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: up a leadoff single in the top of the third inning.

718
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: What is that six hits he's giving up so far

719
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: to the White Sox who somehow still only have one run.

720
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 3: That's what That's what the White Sox do, Jason Smith,

721
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 3: Dodgers lead at two to one. Andy Pa has homers

722
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 3: in the bottom of the inning. About it of the

723
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,239
Speaker 3: second give the Dodgers a two to one lead. But

724
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 3: Kershaw is still so far tonight no strikeouts, is still

725
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 3: three away from three thousand. So we can't make Clayton

726
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 3: Kershaw the play of the day. But I think I

727
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 3: have a pretty good idea of Oh, play of the

728
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 3: day is going to be okay.

729
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,400

734
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: tire buying should be.

735
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 3: Well.

736
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,240
Speaker 1: When football is life and you help the United States

737
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: into the Gold Cup finals where the brace in the

738
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 1: first fifteen minutes, you get to be the play of

739
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: the day.

740
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 7: Cuts it back in, tell them what the fake turns

741
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 7: it inside, and that's del Tire says, go back to

Speaker 7: the games. Had a perfect early start for the United States.

743
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 2: Here's Diega loada now Luda.

744
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 3: FS one on the call. The United States wins it

745
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 3: two to one. They move in to the Gold Cup finals.

746
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 3: They play Kenda. Oh no wait, sorry, Canada loss because

747
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,239
Speaker 3: they didn't have their guys know their guy, Yeah, they

748
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 3: were missing a bunch of their guys. That's right. So

749
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 3: I'm a little disappointed. We didn't either get a clip

750
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 3: from Rogue one or and door.

751
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: I gave my Indor line earlier the same day, wouldn't

752
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: give me anything, thank you for it. I'm like, come on, man,

753
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: relying on Polisic and or Diego Luna is right now.

754
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: I gotta get deeper into the filmography of Diego Luna

755
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: to come up with more bermanisms.

756
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 3: Book of life.

757
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: They take on a book of life Mexico and Honduras,

758
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 1: which right now is scoreless, nearing halftime.

759
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 3: Again, excuse me, I'll choked up on f s one.

760
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:34,879
Speaker 4: Now.

761
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 3: That first goal, by the way, that that we heard

762
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 3: the call doesn't do it justice. That defender should have

763
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 3: been thrown off the pitch for his lack of effort

764
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 3: trying to poke at the ball and allowing Luna to

765
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 3: come straight through him to get the putback of the rebound.

766
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 3: So again, could be United States on Duras, could be Mexico.

767
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: Well, wait and see, we're keeping an eye on this

768
00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:01,000
Speaker 1: as well as well as Oh my good goodness, Clayton

769
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 1: Kershaw is just giving up a two run homer.

770
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 3: Now it's a throw.

771
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: White Sox lead Austin Slater, who I believe is a surfer,

772
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,280
Speaker 1: is also playing for the Well, Sean Burke is pitching

773
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: for the White That's true.

774
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 3: He was terrific Goaldie for the Whalers back in the nineties. No,

775
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 3: we certainly have guys all over the place, multiple identities,

776
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 3: just like Diego Loen.

777
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: Don't know if Kershaw is going to be around long

778
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 1: enough tonight for those three struck outs to get to

779
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:27,720
Speaker 1: three thousand.

780
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 3: Boy, the ball your fault too, It's not my faults.

781
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 3: You didn't start the show with it. Hey, Hey, you

782
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 3: said we ruined the vibe. Hey, I did not ruin

783
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 3: ruined Kershaw day. To be fair, right now, I think

784
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 3: Kershaw has ruined Kershaw Day.

785
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 1: I think Kershaw's eighty eight mile an hour fastball is

786
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 1: ruining Kershaw Day.

787
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 3: That's what's happen, leaving it up and yeah and hitting

788
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:52,320
Speaker 3: the upper eighties. But now, well, we have big stuff

789
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 3: on Lebron and the Lakers, who make a who make

790
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 3: a big splash today for the Lakers coming up in

791
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:58,280
Speaker 3: a few minutes.

792
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: But you know, I gotta say this, so far, we're

793
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: now three days into NBA free agency.

794
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 3: We can stop and take a breath because all the

795
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 3: big names they've changed, they've changed places. Right, we've seen

796
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 3: the bit and most of them have re signed with

797
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:10,479
Speaker 3: their teams.

798
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,399
Speaker 1: There's still some big players out there, right, So still

799
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,000
Speaker 1: guys out there going oh man, okay, but they're restricted

800
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 1: all for players, so you don't know kind of how

801
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 1: that's gonna go. So there's still some guys out there.

802
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 1: But now we've seen the first big wave. And I

803
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: gotta stop for a second. This is for ESPN, this

804
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: is for NBA. This uh.

805
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 3: The first three days of free agency has not been insane.

806
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 3: It's been a frenzy.

807
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: Not it's not been it's not been a frenzy. It's

808
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,320
Speaker 1: not been incredible move it has not been jaw dropping.

809
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: It's been the beginning of free agency. Have some perspective.

810
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: It's been the beginning to free agency. I can'tsider and

811
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,879
Speaker 1: tell you that it's frenzied and it's incredible and it's

812
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: jaw dropping. When the biggest name to change teams is

813
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 1: Miles Turner, I mean, come on, man, I get look,

814
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 1: it's a big story from a day ago because Turner

815
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:00,080
Speaker 1: plays in a Damian Lillard and Yannis. But when you

816
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: say free agency is telling me, oh, it's fantastic, dude.

817
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 1: The biggest name has been Miles Turner. And unless there's

818
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: a trade. Now, trades are different because the trade we

819
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,879
Speaker 1: talked about the trade season, we're gonna wind up seeing

820
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: some stuff get loosened up. But the free agency season,

821
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 1: it's just been okay. This is like the nb NBA

822
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 1: fregency has been the hype and the execution of the

823
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 1: Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest without Joey Chestnut,

824
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: Like was it like, no Joey Chesnut?

825
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 3: Lads, what we okay? But now he's back. Okay. Some

826
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 3: years free agency is great. Some years it's not.

827
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: No, there's it's not been a great There's been some

828
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: solid moves, but there's been nothing so far that I

829
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 1: can sit there and say, oh wow that this is

830
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,800
Speaker 1: cutting across from coast to coast. You can't make Miles

831
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: Turner happen more than it should. You gotta have a

832
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: little bit of proportion to it.

833
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 3: But all I mean, all of this, look at what's happening. No, no,

834
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 3: just you know, don't don't try to convince me on stuff.

835
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 3: It's not been. This has been just a start for

836
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 3: free agency. So no one's no one's taken all the

837
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 3: bait of going all in and overpaying for guys that

838
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,319
Speaker 3: they should have shouldn't overpay for. It's been a start

839
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 3: to NBA Free agency. Yes, teams, names and players have

840
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 3: changed teams, but what have we seen so far that suddenly,

841
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 3: oh my goodness, look at this right again, the biggest

842
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 3: name has been Mile turn Let's just have the perspective. Well,

843
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 3: he's got a big deal. He just played in the

844
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 3: NBA Finals. He played big minutes, give you big, big moments.

845
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:22,919
Speaker 3: We've spent with teen extensions and new contracts, nearly three

846
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 3: billion dollars. That that counts. And if I have the rights,

847
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 3: I'm selling the hell out of it. I mean, how

848
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 3: did a former colleague if I used to start a show,

849
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 3: that's the best fifteen minutes you're ever gonna hear? All right,

850
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 3: what about the next fifteen minutes? But we'll get to

851
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,280
Speaker 3: that when we get to that. For us, it's all right.

852
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 3: Now it's time to entertain you with the next act.

853
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 3: And now here's something you really like. And for the

854
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 3: NBA free agency, if I'm the rights holder, every move

855
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 3: is the greatest move ever made because it's next, it's now,

856
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 3: and you have to sell, sell sell. Might just be

857
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 3: a minimal deal, might just be a resigning of a

858
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:04,720
Speaker 3: guy that's gonna sit at the end of the bench.

859
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 3: I mean we're over hyping the fact that DeAndre Eaton

860
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 3: was once upon a time.

861
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: Now look, now, the thing is is that there are

862
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 1: moves that play into bigger things. Because coming up in

863
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 1: a few minutes, why the DeAndre eight move plays into

864
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,800
Speaker 1: something so much bigger for the Lakers in the NBA,

865
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 1: just like we said, look the Miles Turner move, you know,

866
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,479
Speaker 1: stretching out the salary for Damian Lillard and now when

867
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: is he gonna play again?

868
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 3: And now what about Giannis? Like, okay, the honest part

869
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 3: of it gets big, but this part, okay, well the

870
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 3: Lillard part was big too, though, because it showed once

871
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,399
Speaker 3: again NBA contracts. Man, here's your one hundred and twelve

872
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,919
Speaker 3: million dollars. You didn't like being here. Now we part

873
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 3: as friends and you move on, kind of like the

874
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,399
Speaker 3: end of what was that book and Harry Potter where

875
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 3: they got that cool little animated sequence and the guy

876
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 3: flies away with death. I mean, Lillard gets to keep

877
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 3: over one hundred million over the next five years and

878
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 3: he gets to go wherever you want. I mean, that's

879
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 3: kind of a big deal. We all aspire to that

880
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,840
Speaker 3: exit out by a Fresca exit swollen dome, the Jason

881
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 3: Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harmon Coming up next.

882
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: You want a great hot take for the NBA. What

883
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: the Lakers are daring Lebron James to do? That's next

884
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: right here, Jason and Mike Fox Sports Radio,
