00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: a lot of dust ups going on in the WNBA

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 1: game tonight between Caitlin Clark and the Fever and the Sun,

12
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: let me introduce you to Dodgers Padres bottom of the

00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: third inning. Uh, we'll get to that coming up in

15
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: me tell you what's happening right now. The best rivalry

16
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: in baseball continuing to prove that it is the best

17
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: rivalry in baseball. Padres and the Dodgers. Padres lead this

18
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: one three to two in the bottom of the third inning.

19
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: There's already been some hbp's in this game for Nano

20
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: Tatist Junior got hit in the back. Well shut, that'll

21
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: be what they say at the end of the game. Yeah,

22
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: but he deserved it. Uh. Tatis gets hitt in the back.

23
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 1: Now Otani is hit in the leg. David David Roberts

24
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: is losing his mind right now, out to argue after

25
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,279
Speaker 1: this what just happened in the bottom of the third inning.

26
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: He is screaming at the umpires. Uh. This game is

27
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 1: on the verge of getting out of control. I believe

28
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: Roberts has been tossed from the game. Uh he got

29
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,399
Speaker 1: his money's worth while he was out there. Uh three two.

30
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: And Otani's laughing at first base while it's happening right now.

31
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts get tossed and Otani.

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 3: Is laughing right that that's general demeanor. Man, he's the

33
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 3: the face of boy I love playing this game and

34
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 3: everything else is silly. But go back to yesterday, right,

35
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: they plunked Pahez with your guy Michael Conforto on deck.

36
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: Uh huh.

37
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 3: And then Shilts was screaming of senate ease at Paz

38
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: when he stared down.

39
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: Dylan sees to guys, got hit today, took him deep. Well, yeah,

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 1: then guys are getting hit a guy that's that's just it.

41
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 3: Then it then it starts getting ugly and and a

42
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 3: little bit crazy. So it's good though. It's good for baseball,

43
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 3: good for rivalries, as long as you keep it low.

44
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 3: If he gets hitting the leg, that's all finding good.

45
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 4: God, no, it's least.

46
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: Frostburg wants the Padres thrown out of Major League baseball.

47
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: He wants a thrown out again. Three to two, bottom

48
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: of the third inning, Otani at first Dave Roberts was

49
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: tossed a lot of hbps and you and you know

50
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: it's this is what makes this rivalry so good, right,

51
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: Just a couple of subtle things. Since Roberts was thrown out, Uh,

52
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 1: they tried to pick Otani off at first base, and

53
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 1: it was kind of a physical tag and Otani is

54
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: able to stay on the base, and he gave a

55
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 1: stare to the umpire after it was over, to make

56
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: I tell you, Otani looked madder about that that he

57
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: was Dave Roberts getting thrown out because he was laughing

58
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: after Roberts got tossed, and then Manny Machado just caught

59
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: a pop up to retire Mookie Betts, and he stopped.

60
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: He slammed the ball in his glove and he turned

61
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: and yelled across the diamond after he caught it, Like,

62
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: come on, man, you the Yankees Red Sox looks like

63
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,359
Speaker 1: the Rays and the Astros compared to what we see

64
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: the last couple of years of the dog where we

65
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: are now.

66
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 3: I remember being in the bleachers in right field Yankees

67
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 3: Red Sox back in ninety eight. There were as many

68
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 3: security guards in that section as they were fans.

69
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: Uh.

70
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 3: So it's changed a bit, sure, But now this is

71
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 3: getting getting a bit out of sorts. So we'll see

72
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 3: if they can adjudicate things a little better than we've

73
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: seen some of the other sporting events of the last

74
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: forty eight hours.

75
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, good luck, good luck, good luck to that. Eventually

76
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: we get it all out brawl.

77
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: But you know, Johnny, you know salty salty about the

78
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 3: the little extras here.

79
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: So it's good.

80
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 3: Remember with a franchise, right, It's like when they swipe

81
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 3: that day Caiton, Caitlyn's Clark eyes like she's not the basilisk. Okay,

82
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: you can't have her blinder blind because she is the franchise.

83
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 3: Same thing with Otani people, the asses and seats. Man,

84
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 3: he's box office. Don't be taking cheap shots.

85
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 1: And it's only the bottom of the third inning. We

86
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 1: got a long way to go in this game. Yeah,

87
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: we have a long way to go and still bought.

88
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: There's many more guys that can get it. Look, at

89
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: some point, I think the tensions will boil over and

90
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: the Dodgers and Padres will brawl. I don't know if

91
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be tonight, but at some point during the

92
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,799
Speaker 1: season I'll go I'll go, bulb. There will be someone's

93
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,479
Speaker 1: gonna get hit and it's just gonna be a brawl

94
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: because the tension is just too high between both of

95
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: these teams. They're eventually going to fight at some point.

96
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: I don't Again, it might not be tonight, but it's

97
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 1: gonna happen at some point this season. They're gonna fight, guarantee. Well,

98
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: I mean they lit the fuse.

99
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 3: It all goes back to future All Star PAJZ getting

100
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 3: plunked yesterday and then it escalates from there.

101
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, not a superstar Maya.

102
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: I am really getting behind Andy Pa has the All

103
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: Star game. I'm telling you I'm behind that right now. Man,

104
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 1: he is really really good. A big home run tonight.

105
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: Of course he gets hit as well. Like this is again,

106
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: we got some time.

107
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 4: Jason, there's so much time left in this game that

108
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 4: Miguel Azuna could clear the bases two more times.

109
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,239
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, okay, we're done with that. That has nothing

110
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: to do with this. Okay, Marcelo Zuna had a great

111
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 1: hit tonight. Congratulate. The Braves are forty five games place.

112
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: It's okay, the Braves are forty five games out. What

113
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 1: am I worried about?

114
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 5: Hey?

115
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,239
Speaker 1: Hey, is fine? Which New York team is going worse?

116
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: Right now? The Yankees are the Mets eight seven seven night.

117
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: At least the Mets have scored, right. The Yankees haven't

118
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: scored since Saturday. I mean really haven't scored since Saturday.

119
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 3: Either that or they have been way too often so

120
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 3: they've weakened their legs.

121
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: Oh, my dad, it's hard to even talk to him.

122
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: The last couple of days. He's so upset. Well, he said,

123
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: we're never gonna score again. We're never gonna score again.

124
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: That's talking. We're not gonna score. We're gonna go zeros

125
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. That's just good. Judge's gonna

126
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: wind up hit in one forty seven when it's all

127
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: said and done. My dad is like doom and gloom

128
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 1: the entire way. It is the middle of June. Give

129
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 1: him my goodness, but middle of June is a much

130
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 1: bigger deal in the NBA. And as we get ready

131
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: for game six Thursday night, where the Pacers try to

132
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: stay alive, potentially and I say potentially just because the

133
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: way it's reporter, because has no way he's not gonna play,

134
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: Tari's Halliburton is going to have an MRI on a

135
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: calf strain. Remember the game. We watched the game last

136
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: night in the first quarter, kind of stumbled a bit,

137
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: going down, left the game with a bit of a

138
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: calf strain, came back, got some treatment on it, came

139
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: back in the game. Still played the second most minutes

140
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: of any pacer last night. But it was reported earlier

141
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: today going to have an MRI to determine the severity

142
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: of the strain. This according to Shams Tarania. Now, as

143
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: we heard Halliburton say, as long as he's able to

144
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 1: be ambulatory and can stand on two feet, he plans

145
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: to play on Thursday. Take a listen.

146
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 4: I mean's gonna be final. It's the finals, man.

147

Speaker 6: I've worked my whole life to be here, and I

148
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 6: want to be out there to compete, you know, help

00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 6: my teammates anyway I can. You know, I was not

150
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 6: great tonight by any means, but uh, you know, it's

151
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 6: not really a thought of mine to to not play here.

152
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 6: You know, if I fucking uh you know, walk, then

153
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 6: I want to play. So you know they understand that,

154
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 6: and uh, you know.

155
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:25,960

157
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 6: game six.

158
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: Okay, So here's where I'm I. I I don't believe

159
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: that he's not dinged up, right. I firmly believe that

160
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: he is dealing with a cap strain. I firmly believe that.

161
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: But the severity of it, I really, I really have

162
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: to see what the results of this MRI are because

163
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: right now I kind of feel like is he being

164
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: protected because we know his game is all mental right

165
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: when he's playing with confidence and he's terrific. But again,

166
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: he played thirty four minutes lest night, the second most

167
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: minutes of anybody on the team. If all of a

168
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: sudden today he's got to have an MRI and it's

169
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: really bad, well guess what that's like a fireable offense

170
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: for whoever is on the medical team of the Pacers

171
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: that all of a sudden. His strained CAF was so bad,

172
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: but they allowed him back in the game last night, right,

173
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, man, I mean, that's not a

174
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: game where you allow your star player to continue to

175
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 1: play if he is really hurt, and you know, they

176
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: look at it and they can tell what's going on

177
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: with him. He's looked at it. If they really thought

178
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: it was bad, they would have said, you're not coming back,

179
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: because it's not a game we have to have. It's

180
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: not game seven, it's not an elimination game. We're playing

181
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: on the road. We're already down by ten if we lose, okay,

182
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: let's hope we get you back for game six. And

183
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: because we have an extra couple of days healthy, and

184
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 1: we're gonna sit you out because we think it might

185
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: be something. That's what would have happened last night if

186
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: this injury was really bad. And again, if it is,

187
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: if we find out tomorrow, oh he's got then I

188
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: gotta say, what the hell were the Pacers doing with

189
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: him during the game where they allowed him to come

190
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: back in this game? Right? And I don't think that

191
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: happens at this level. We don't see that, we don't

192
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: see any sort of medical malpractice where guys are allowed

193
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: to play when when clearly they're at an injury risk.

194
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: And this is Tyre's Halliburton, who was at an injury

195
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 1: risk after getting hurt and getting examined and looked at

196
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 1: by the Pacers medical staff. So that's why I look

197
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: at this and I go, is this a thing? Is

198
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: this just you know, to show, hey, he is hurt

199
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: and we wanna we want to protect him a little

200
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: bit because you know, he's getting all kinds of all

201
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: kinds of criticism for how we played last night. Look,

202
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's not banged up. I'm not saying

203
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: he's not dinged up. I'm sure he is a little bit.

204
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: But again, the guy played thirty four minutes. If he

205
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 1: was really a detriment to the team, they would have

206
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: pulled him off the floor. But he's able to play

207
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: thirty four minutes. So yeah, I gotta think he's gonna

208
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: be okay. In this MRI that gets out, it's like, okay, okay. Again,

209
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: either way is not gonna be great for the Pacers

210
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: because either the MRI is fine, that's what we thought

211
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: it was, and this was just something to throw us

212
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: off center to get people to stop criticizing him, or hey,

213
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: it was more serious, in which case it's why didn't

214
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: you sit the guy down like there's no win for

215
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: the Pacers here other than to say, hey, we're just

216
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: gonna kick the can down the road. As far as

217
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: Halliburt and his injury and what's going on right, it's

218
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: really it's a really big thing to suddenly come out

219
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: the next day and say, yeah, he's got to have

220
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: an MRI. So I really want to see which way

221
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: this thing goes. And I hope he's healthy. I want

222
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 1: him to play. I want him to play at a

223
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 1: high level because look, the games are better and the

224
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: league is better when when he's playing at a high level.

225
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: I want the guy to be healthy because his NBA

226
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,719
Speaker 1: Finals has been terrific so far. I want him to

227
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: be I want him to play. But I see this

228
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: and I don't know. I just I've seen a lot

229
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: of games. I've seen a lot of situations. I've seen

230
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: a lot of gamesmanship, and I just wonder how this

231
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: is going to come back, and when it comes back.

232
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked about the level of passivity. Yesterday, thirty

233
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 3: four minutes played just a handful of shots, taken.

234
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: Four for four from the free throw.

235
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 3: Line, and all the lines we ran about scoring droughts,

236
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 3: you know, Yankees for versus Halliburton and so many others.

237
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 3: Insert your own joke here at how about a Fresco

238
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 3: at swollen dome punchlines for days? But MRIs, there you go, MRIs,

239
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 3: what thirty to sixty minutes is what the estimate says.

240
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 3: You know, in my quick medical research, I've not had

241
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 3: one yet, so I don't know. But so it's not

242
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 3: like they were gonna do it in game, but they

243
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: seemingly took all precautions. He's taped up, he's banded, he's ice,

244
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 3: he's all of these things, and then he's able to

245
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 3: talk his way back on to the court. So clearly

246
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 3: the medical staff got on board with that. To your point,

247
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 3: they wasn't the active desperation other than hey, you're gonna

248
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 3: fall behind three two, But you know it's not series ending,

249
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 3: it's not any of those. And either way, he's your

250
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 3: he's not necessarily your leader. That's probably Siakam, but he's

251
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 3: two times third team All NBA guy. He's kind of

252
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 3: an important deal. So if you thought this was a

253
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 3: bigger deal and we've talked about calf strains and what

254
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 3: they lead to potentially in larger issues. You know, the

255
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 3: another guy we've been talking about a lot, that Durant guy,

256
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 3: right going back a couple of years, that you wouldn't

257
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 3: put that to chance.

258
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: So but it doesn't take much for the MRI.

259
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 3: Hey, guess what after breakfast you need to go report

260
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 3: to the tube.

261
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: Okay, cool, but you put it out there and and now.

262
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 3: I don't know if you want to do the excuse

263
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 3: making ego satisfaction to give him an out because you

264
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 3: know you can lose him for a stretch, as we've

265
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 3: talked about throughout these playoffs. But all that to say,

266
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 3: hopefully it's it's just an innocuous Hey, we're just taking

267
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 3: all precautions and checking all the boxes to make sure

268
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: there's nothing else there.

269
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: And then he comes out and plays like his hair's

270
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: on fire. At least that's the hope. Exit out about

271
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: a Fresca exit swallowed do I just I wanted it's

272
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: kind of curious timing. I want to see how this

273
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: thing comes out, because look again, you saw thirty four

274
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: minutes last night, didn't come out of the game, wasn't

275
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,559
Speaker 1: limping what it really something just really doesn't add up

276
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: when it comes to this again, Exit Out about a

277
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,640

325
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: it is. Andy pa has hit last night in the

326
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: Padres Dodgers game, which kind of sparked what went on today.

327
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: Tatiase gets hit, Otani gets hit, gets hit. Pahes has

328
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: responded with his second home run of the game. It

329
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: is now three to three in the top of the

330
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: fifth inning. As boy, I can't wait to see what

331
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 1: we have the rest to this game. Le'm make them

332
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: popcorn just to watch him.

333
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 4: My question to you guys, is he a star guy?

334
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: Oh? If I was eighty percent before, I am one

335
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: hundred percent on board with Andy Paez all star one

336
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: hundred percent. He looks like it's gonna be there for years.

337
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: He's solid everywhere at center field. He's a good enough fielder.

338
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: He does that. He hits for power, he knocks and runs,

339
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: he does he is he is just becoming a fantastic player.

340
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: Now you see why they stuck with him most of

341
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: the year last year where he struggled a lot, because look,

342
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: the Dodgers knowing we got a guy coming up, we

343
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: know how good he is. Right, they knew Paez was

344
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: coming And look at the guy. Now he's going to

345
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: play center field for the next decade and be an

346
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: All Star.

347
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 3: Only twenty four years old, one hundred and sixteen games

348
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 3: played last year, bad at two forty eight, already up

349
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 3: a good thirty five points on the year. Plus he's

350
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 3: already matched his home run in RBI production before tonight.

351
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: So there you go.

352
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 4: So you both are on board.

353
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: Oh one hundred percent. I get on board.

354
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 4: So there's only one stupid dummy here.

355
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 1: Don't care who's Who's that?

356
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 4: He's standing at the top of the stairs of the

357
00:16:59,040 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 4: Padre dugout.

358
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, if I was Pa Has, I would

359
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 3: have gone and walked over and said, don't you know

360
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 3: who I am?

361
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I think he knows who he is.

362
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 3: Now I think about the bowling guy line, right, yeah,

363
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 3: the Pete Weber line.

364
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Love me or hate me?

365
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 1: You you watch me? Yeah? Uh so again, Yes, I'm

366
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 1: one hundred percent in with Andy pos for the All

367
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: Star Game, right, I mean coming out just making sure

368
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: two eighty thirteen homers forty six RBIs got two more tonight.

369
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: His ops is pretty good. It's just over eight hundred

370
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: like this is. He just does it all, right. Yeah,

371
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: he's not someone he's not Otani, he's not someone that's good,

372
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: but he does it all and he gives you offense

373
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: and defense from the center field position, and it's it's

374
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,239
Speaker 1: above average. Yeah. I'm completely down for him, man. I mean,

375
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,119
Speaker 1: I'm twenty four years old. He's gonna be All Star

376
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 1: the next ten years.

377
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's starting like Connor McDavid.

378
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: Well, that's true. He does finish the job.

379
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 3: Twenty twelve US Open was when Pete Weber looked at

380
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 3: a Heckler and said, who do you think you are?

381
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: I am right there you go. S We'll have more

382
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: on this game coming up again. Three three Padres and

383
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: Dodgers in the top of the fifth inning. But you

384
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: just mentioned Connor McDavid. We watched the Panthers win the

385
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: Stanley Cup a big night, Sam Reyanhart four goals and

386
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 1: you haven't seen that in the Stanley Cup final game

387
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: since nineteen fifty seven. The Panthers win back to back

388
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: Stanley Cups to beat the Oilers for the second time.

389
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: And you know, just just a second, because you know,

390
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 1: to give you something, and I'm sure people will see

391
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: this Tomorrow's like, what am I gonna say about the NFL?

392
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: They're not gonna say anything about the Panthers. What they're terrific.

393
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: Let me talk about how great they are. This Oilers

394
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: team is incredibly talented, right, you have two of the

395
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: top five players in the game in Connor McDavid and

396
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: Leandre and McDavid still, you know, he's been in the

397
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: league near a decade now, so the question about him

398
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 1: is going to be Kenny win. But you're talking about

399
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: a team that is powered by two of the top

400
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: five players, right. This is this is the Bulls having

401
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,199
Speaker 1: Jordan and pippin you know, at their disposal dirt in

402
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: the course of their careers and still here they are

403
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: falling short twice to the Florida Panthers. Now, what is it?

404
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: Why the Panthers went back to back Cups. I'll tell

405
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: you exactly what it is. You watch the Panthers playing.

406
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: Unfortunately I get to watch a lot of them because

407
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: they go through my team to get to the Stanley

408
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 1: Cup final every bleeping year. They're a throwback to the

409
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: like the Islander and the Oiler dynasties of the eighties,

410
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: and if you want to talk about the the Mini

411
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 1: Red Wings dynasty in the mid to late nineties early

412
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: two thousands, like, that's what their throwbacks to because these

413
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: were teams that were just better than you everywhere. Right,

414
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: they have three lines that all do damage. Right Nowaday,

415
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 1: you don't have that in the NHL. You don't have

416
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: that kind of depth everywhere. You don't have you don't

417
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 1: have three lines that can all score goals. And they

418
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: go out and get brad marshand and now they have

419
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 1: young players and veteran players who are able to contribute.

420
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: These are how these dynastic teams are made, right, This

421
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,679
Speaker 1: was the Islanders of the eighties, right. It was Bossy

422
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: and Tracy and Potvan and then Pat la Fontaine comes

423
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 1: in and same thing for the Oilers. It's Gretzky and Messi.

424
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: But then here comes Yari Curry and Paul Coffee, and

425
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: they keep these guys together and they're better than you everywhere.

426
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 1: Then the Red Wings with Eiserman and Federoff and Larionoff,

427
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 1: and then and then all the all the when they

428
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: had the five Russians playing together all the time. Then

429
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 1: here comes Darren McCarty and Chris Draper. They were just

430
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: better and more solid than you everywhere. And their defencemen

431
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: were good. Nicholas Linchen was one of the best defenders

432
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: in the NHL for a long time. Right, whether it

433
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: was Osgar or Vernon made no difference. That's what this

434
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: Florida Panthers team is like, and it's really incredible to watch.

435
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: Also very frustrating to see a team. But they're just

436
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: better than everybody everywhere. There's no weakness, there's no week,

437
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: there's no hey. If you're gonna win this series, you

438
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: have to make sure you convert on the power play,

439
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: you have to make sure that you are controlling, controlling whatever.

440
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 1: There's nothing, there's nothing you can say there, there's there

441
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,000
Speaker 1: there's nothing you can say, Okay, this is how you

442
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 1: beat this team. You have to hope your your goalie

443
00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: stands on his head and you can get those times

444
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: and clearly that wasn't happening in the Stanley Cup Final

445
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: where the Oilers couldn't even figure out who their goalie

446
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 1: was going to be. But that's what this Panthers team

447
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: they throw. They remind me when I watched the Islanders

448
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: and I watched the Oilers and then the Red Wings.

449
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: It's like, yes, they all had really good players, but

450
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: they just had the right mix up and down the

451
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: roster where you could put the third line out there

452
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,400
Speaker 1: and expect a big game, clinching Stanley Cup goal. Right,

453
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: you could do that, right, the Red Wings could put

454
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: their third line out there and you could get something

455
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: from Darren McCarty and Chris Draper. Right, you could do that.

456
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 1: You could see that, And that's kind of what this

457
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: Panthers team's remind me of. And this has been a

458
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: big run they have and it's not going anywhere like

459
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 1: this is not a team that suddenly, hey, it's gonna

460
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: get torn apart or ripped apart, like that's what's's been

461
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: doing for the last couple of years. This could be

462
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: one of those teams that, hey, three cups in a

463
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: row and we're saying, wait, wait are they going back?

464
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 1: They going back to the oiler that the the halcyon

465
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 1: days of the eighties when teams are winning three and

466
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: four Stanley Cups in a row, like, that's how good

467
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: this Panthers team is? Well, but that's beauty of it.

468
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 3: Right, You build and I don't know how much you

469
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 3: discount like the commission there did and many other folks

470
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 3: did about you know, Florida and income tax, because we

471
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,919
Speaker 3: talk about it for every other sport. Right, in terms

472
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 3: of getting guys to sign buying into a culture or

473
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 3: staying put, it's like, hey, you save ten percent if

474
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 3: you stay here versus going there, and you've got a

475
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 3: winning culture and a nice life, so why would you

476
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 3: want to leave? So part of that is is just

477
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 3: what you've built as a roster. So yeah, they're not

478
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 3: going anywhere, and they come at you in waves. We've

479
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 3: seen the quick starts and obviously some legends in the making.

480
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 3: And who's not gonna want to sign on to try

481
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 3: to go for a third right, any of the free

482
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 3: agency issues and conversations they have, unless someone's really gonna

483
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 3: hit a multiplier like they're scratching off the bottom of

484
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 3: a scratch off lottery.

485
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: Ticket.

486
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 3: They're staying in Florida, so you're gonna have to run

487
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 3: through them again. So for the oilers for your squad,

488
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 3: for my woe begone Blackhawks squad, it's been fifteen years

489
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: since greatness.

490
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 1: There all of those things to say, you're chasing what

491
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 1: has been a machine.

492
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 3: It's something we've talked about a lot with our NBA

493
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 3: discussions of what the thunder might be. For a moment

494
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 3: it looked like maybe it was going to be torn

495
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 3: asunder by these pacers, but now very firmly planted towards

496
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 3: the finish line, you know, toes in full straight, straight line,

497
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 3: towards the endgame, perhaps tomorrow or Thursday night. Keep trying

498
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 3: trying to advance it so we can get it done with.

499
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 3: But you know, it's an extra day of talking about it.

500
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 3: But all of that of how you build a franchise

501
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 3: with your draft choices, free agency, rookie contracts, and the

502
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 3: right blend of things, Florida has hit on a formula

503
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 3: that works. So yeah, barring some unforeseen disaster, they're not

504
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 3: going anywhere a while.

505
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,159
Speaker 1: I mean it, man, I mean I would not be

506
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: surprised if we are talking about them like we are

507
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: the Islanders won for it, right, I mean I was

508
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 1: one Forida roll right now. For the Canadians won four

509
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: in a row, right with Geelah Floor and Steve Shutt

510
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: and Ken Dryden and all. I mean, this was that

511
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: was some kind of run. I mean, I'm going back aways,

512
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: but I mean it's not gonna surprise me if we're

513
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 1: talking about the Panthers doing this over the course of the

514
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: next couple of years, because they're just that good everywhere.

515
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 4: Go ahead, justin sorry Mike, but we got to talk

516
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 4: about Brad march Shan for a second.

517
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess, go ahead, I guess we do. Guys,

518
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: what do you mean just gave him away? Yeah, we're

519
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 1: done winning. I yes, Brad mar Shand is great and

520
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 1: the Bruins just said, yeah here, yeah we're done, go ahead,

521
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: take him. Wait what what the hell's going on here?

522
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 1: But look, that's what teams do, right, That's what teams

523
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 1: that are great. They find the right, that right veteran

524
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: to come in and say okay, And it's like you

525
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: can't imagine their team before you got them, right, Like

526
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: you can't imagine this this team before they got Brad

527
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: mar Shan. You thought having the kachuks and all the

528
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 1: big goals they had last the last couple of years

529
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: have been great. Now now now Marshan shows up. But

530
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: it's like you felt like he's been there for seven years.

531
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 1: He's only been there.

532
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:55,439
Speaker 4: How old is he?

533
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: Oh? Man, Probably not as old as you want him

534
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, seven in a row, I'm telling you man,

535
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: not is probably four Stanley cups in a row. I

536
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 1: would not be surprised.

537
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 3: Well, I was chuckling because you know awful announcing. All right,

538
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 3: I should say the freezing cold takes account does not

539
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 3: miss Uh. They found one from November of twenty one

540
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 3: by Jerry Sullivan covering stuff out there on the East

541
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 3: Coast in Uh. Sam Reinhardt, highest paid Panthers, no goals,

542
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 3: won't assist his last six games. Ice time is declining.

543
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 3: Where are the Sabers fans who told me how much

544
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 3: they would miss it? When I hear of all the

545
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 3: positive qualities the team lacked in the past.

546
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: I think of Ryan Hart from twenty to twenty one that.

547
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 3: Got undearthed as that game went final.

548

Speaker 1: Oh wow, that outstanding.

Speaker 1: hard for the Bruins come in and everybody's just scripted.

559
00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 1: We spend the entire game just screaming at each other,

560
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:15,800

567
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: Sad.

00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 4: I can't wrap my hand around what is Grosburg is.

569
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 1: Having the greatest night in the world. Right the Oilers lost?

570
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 1: You know, the Dodgers have tied the game against the

571
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 1: podres Pa has hits two home runs. We say he's

572
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 1: gonna be an All Star like everything's coming up Frostburg tonight.

573
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: Who just aren't dry?

574
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 4: Like, what is going on.

575
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: I was lied to through surnames Corey Perry.

576
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 4: You don't have to cry.

577
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, poor Corey Perry. Right, Oh, Corey Perry. What was

00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: really it's been a while time now to find out

581
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: what's trending in the wide world of sports. So someone

582
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 1: who's been called the Connor McDavid of Fox Sports Radio,

583
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: he's never lifted the Stanley Cup either. It's steep to.

584
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 5: Say, wow, it's just giving it from all sides here.

585
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 5: Corey Perry, I think, keeps going to the final with

586
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,479
Speaker 5: different teams and I believe this is five times in

587
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 5: recent years he has.

588
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: Lost the Stanley Cup.

589
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 2: Wow.

590
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 5: I do have a trivia question for you both, and

591
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 5: I'll give you a minute to think about it.

592
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 4: But now that we have had this.

593
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 5: Florida team win the Cup against the same opponent in

594
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 5: the final back to back years, the Montreal team that

595
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 5: you just brought up did the same in the late

596
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 5: nineteen seventies, beat the Boston Bruins back to back seasons

597
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 5: to win the Cup nineteen seventy seven to seventy eight. Okay,

598
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 5: trivia question in the other three major sports in the

599
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 5: last fifty years. If it's happened, how has it happened

600
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 5: with whom to win the title in your sport beating

601
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 5: the same opponent in the final back to back years.

602
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:18,239
Speaker 5: We'll come back to that.

603
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: Nice. I thought you were gonna say Canadian team won

604
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: a Stanley.

605
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 5: Not hockey, but the other three major sports in the

606
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 5: last fifty years. Okay, Florida Panthers took Game six of

607
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 5: the Stanley Cup Final tonight over Edmonton five to one.

608
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 5: Sam Reinhart with four goals, including two empty netters. He

609
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 5: is the first NHL player all time to have his

610
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 5: first career four goal game come in the final. And

611
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 5: you mentioned coach Paul Maurice. How about this multiple championships

612
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 5: on his resume now after winning none in his first

613
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 5: twenty five season, the first head coach in the four

614
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 5: major sports to have that happened to him late in life.

615
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 4: And yet again it.

616
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 5: Was Florida not falling behind Sam Bennett winds up playoff MVP.

617
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,560

742
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: Uh like royalty for crying out loud, one of the biggest.

743
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,359
Speaker 1: I would say, highlights the night because you're gonna see

744
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 1: this everywhere is what happened tonight between the Indiana Fever

745
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 1: the Connecticut son in a Commissioner's Cup game. Oh by

746
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 1: the way, yeah, a little Fever move on to the

747
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: championship of the Commissioner's Cup. Caitlin Clark's second game back

748
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: from injury, twenty point six assists. She had four threes.

749
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: Indiana beats Connecticut pretty handily eighty eight seventy one, but

750
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 1: the game was extremely physical and there's a couple of

751
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 1: sequences you're gonna see all over the place, beginning in

752
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: the third quarter, when Caitlin Clark gets poked in the

753
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 1: eye by J. C. Sheldon of Connecticut. She kind of

754
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: flops a little bit, right because Kitlyn Clark is a

755
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: good flopper, right, I'll tell you she's a good flopper.

756
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 1: And then Marina Maybrey comes in and kind of shoves

757
00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:00,319
Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark, while right after that happens Caitlyn Clark again,

758
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark is a good flopper. She falls to the ground,

759
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 1: but still very physical play. The sides have to be separated.

760
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: And then Sheldon late in the game, when the game

761
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: was already decided, steals races the other way and then

762
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: Sophie Cunningham of the Fever just wraps her up for

763
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 1: a hard foul. Is both arms wrapped around her shoulders

764
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: and there's a shoving match between two of them. Three

765
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: players all get tossed, and quite honestly, this is gonna

766
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: be the next way that teams try to combat the fever. Right,

767
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,439
Speaker 1: we talked about this last night. By game thirty, they're

768
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 1: gonna be viewed as the best team in the WNBA.

769
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 2: Right.

770
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,520
Speaker 1: They made a lot of change to their team in

771
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: the offseason. Need a little bit of time for them

772
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: to gel, but they brought in some big time players,

773
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: and Caitlyn Clark is on the big middle finger tour

774
00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: of blank you you hate me, watch me go through you. Right,

775
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 1: She's loved by everybody, but there's a look, there's a

776
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,799
Speaker 1: lot of haters. You know, the players in the league

777
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,359
Speaker 1: are jealous of her. She's like, okay, okay, you watch

778
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 1: you thought I was good last year. I'm stronger, I'm

779
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 1: bit more threes. Now I'm gonna a hot knife through

780
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 1: butter you. And this is gonna be the next thing

781
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: of what teams try to do. They're gonna try to

782
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: be physical and see if they can dominate the fever physically.

783
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: And you know, seeing how this went in this game

784
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 1: in the third quarter, when this happened with Caitlyn Clark.

785
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,839
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark gets poked in the eye, then she gets

786
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 1: pushed to the floor. She gets up and walks away, right,

787
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: and this is this happened but the last time with

788
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,200
Speaker 1: Angel Reason And I'm like, Okay, at some point I

789
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 1: get she doesn't want to be in the middle of

790
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: a fracas because you know, look, you're the show, you're

791
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 1: the league, but you kind of have to stand on

792
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 1: your ground at some point, right, So when that happened,

793
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: I was like, man, she really has to kind of

794
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: stand in there and someone who's gonna push her and

795
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: not just go where's the foul, where's the foul and

796
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: leave her teammates to it. Right. I understand it because

797
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark is on a different level and wants to

798
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: stay in the game, doesn't want to get technical fouls,

799
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: doesn't want to get any sort of suspension, doesn't want

800
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 1: to leave anything up to the league to say, oh, here,

801
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,960
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark is this. But at some point you kind

802
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: of have to stand up. But you saw Sophie Cunningham

803
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: stand up for at the end with that big, hard

804
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 1: foul on Sheldon, So I find it hard to believe

805
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to physical intimidate the Indiana Fever. Right,

806
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: it'll be a strategy that's used, and it's just not

807
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,719
Speaker 1: gonna happen because this Fever team is really talented. But

808
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: if I could say just one thing, the next time

809
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: that happens, Caitlyn Clark kind of has to stand up

810
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 1: for herself a little bit too, and not always just

811
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 1: walk away like it's a second time that's happened. Not

812
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,240
Speaker 1: saying she got to stand there and throw hay makers.

813
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: But you gotta do the fake you know, the fake

814
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,879
Speaker 1: tough guy thing is say, yeah, come on, you want

815
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: to fight, you what, You're gonna get broken up and

816
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: people are gonna push you aside, but you gotta stand

817
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: there and make it at least look like you know

818
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:27,520
Speaker 1: you want to do that to me, I'm coming back

819
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 1: at you. You gotta give me a little bit of

820
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: that when it happens.

821
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 3: No, and that's that's on her, you know, because she's

822
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 3: got no problem mixing it up. And then as soon

823
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,439
Speaker 3: as it starts to escalate, it's the turn and walk

824
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:42,280
Speaker 3: say all right, now it's someone else's problem to clean up. Fortunately,

825
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 3: she's got Sophie Cunningham, who is you know, being revered.

826
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,680
Speaker 3: She put up on Instagram kind of a shoulder shrug

827
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 3: laughing emoji from a photo shoot alongside the video of

828
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 3: the play, which, by the way, Sheldon was gonna clear

829
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 3: her out with the elbow if she didn't come over

830
00:38:59,719 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 3: the time.

831
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: By the way, going for that for that layup.

832
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 3: But you know it's the you know, my my love

833
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,800
Speaker 3: of the WWE kind of goes in because it's Sophie Cunningham,

834
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 3: beloved by all right, her fit and everything walking into

835
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 3: the arena is the one of the things that that

836
00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:17,240
Speaker 3: draws eyeballs.

837
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 1: And and and and all of that.

838
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 3: So you wouldn't think she'd be the one going and

839
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 3: becoming the enforcer. Guess what, uh she she's going full

840
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 3: live Morgan before the shoulder injury or Alexa Bliss or whatever,

841
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 3: to be the combination of both. I could be your

842
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 3: champion and still kick your ass, you know that kind

843
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 3: of thing.

844
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: Uh So, it's it's a.

845
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,879
Speaker 3: Great development that you've got the enforcer role there because

846
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 3: you're gonna see more of this. But for Gitalin Clark,

847
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,879
Speaker 3: she does welcome in in. So eventually her teammates will

848
00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 3: have to put their arm around your shoulder and go

849
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 3: can we not do this for one game?

850
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,800
Speaker 1: Can we? Now? In this case it was a physical

851
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 1: thing Sheldon and she no love loss.

852
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 3: I think Sheldon's oh to twelve against her going back

853
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,280
Speaker 3: to collegiate days and and certainly you get those frustration moments.

854
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 3: You don't get the shrug of the shoulders like you

855
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:10,359
Speaker 3: had with Haley van lit here. You got a lot

856
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 3: of physicality and bumping before the eye scratch that that

857
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 3: we saw that precipitated this. But all of that to

858
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,279
Speaker 3: say the physicality is something that we've seen time and

859
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 3: again with Caitlin Clark and how it gets adjudicated. I

860
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 3: think the officials are going to get a finger wagging

861
00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:31,359
Speaker 3: from the league as well, because they got called out

862
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 3: by the announcing crew for the duration of the game

863
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 3: for the lack of control that they showed in that

864
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 3: instance that then blew all the way up into that

865
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 3: Cunningham file at the end.

866
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean the physical strategy is gonna work, but it's

867
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: a strategy born out of desperation because again in the

868
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: coming weeks, the Fever gonna show they're the best team

869
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: in the w Just well and get ready. Every game

870
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 1: is going to be a show exit about a Fresca exit,

871
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 1: swollen dome, Jason Smith, Mike Carmen Lack from the Fox
