17
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: speaking of the Lakers, I feel like, you know, this

18
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 1: is where I get to a point where I say,

19
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: this is where the NBA schedule is just ridiculous, with

20
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 1: the back to back games every other game for the Lakers.

21
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: It's well tonight, Luca and Austin Reeves are playing and

22
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:11,479
Speaker 1: that a full contingent.

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: Oh, but they then they play the next game.

24
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: Luca's out, Austin Reeves is out, everybody's out. Dalton Connects

25
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: started tonight. Yeah, Bronnie was off the like the first

26
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: guy off the bench, and he's already played sixteen minutes

27
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: tonight and he's getting minutes in the to start the fourth.

28
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: I mean really like, I feel every other game for

29
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: the Lakers is now we got all the guys.

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 2: Nah, now we're resting everybody. Oh, we got all the guys.

31
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 2: Now arrest everybody.

32
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: Tonight eighty two glorious gips. Notice I don't say that.

33
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 1: Notice I don't say that. I talk about the glory

34
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 1: of the two hundred seventy two NFL games you were

35
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 1: halfway through. But I definitely do not celebrate all eighty

36
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: two for each NBA team. No, it is dead. You

37
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: cannot say that. There is no way you can say no.

38
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: Jake Ravia started tonight for them. I like you, he's

39
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: doing pretty good off.

40
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, he has been. He has been. The area is starting.

41
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: Connect starts say that Bron's twenty two minutes better than

42
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 1: Rick Brunson. He's better than Oh you're Bronson yeah, just stop, yes, stop,

43
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: He's not better than Charles Bronson. I mean, DeAndre Ayton

44
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: has twenty one points, clearly not starting these players. The

45
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: Lakers have a death wish Tonight TV, but they do

46
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: it well when they have their players play on buying

47
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: the Lakers seems like they're doing pretty good to night.

48
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're okay, Yeah, I mean that's surprising. Is it

49
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 2: really surprised?

50
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: Well, they're playing well. The Blazers are actually off to

51
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 1: a little bit better start than I thought. But it's

52
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: surprising the night in which, look, these are your starters.

53
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: You're not you're not playing your guys. You're playing this well.

54
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: I am, I am surprised that I'd give them the nod.

55
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 1: But I mean, but the whole NBA schedule, the whole

56
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 1: thing is that Okay, really, I mean, we're at the

57
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: point where teams just like, we're gonna give these games

58
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: away now with the playing rounds, we don't care anymore, right,

59
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: And that's the thing what the NBA did with the

60
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: playing rounds to try to gain more attention. Can the

61
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: playing rounds work?

62
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 3: Right?

63
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 2: Playing rounds are awesome? Right? Stop?

64
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: Five years ago you could say that man step into

65
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: the now justin step into the now. There it is,

66
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: there's that new hashtag for the show. Step in now

67
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: but the whole. But now teams have gone to we

68
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: don't want to be in the play into Yeah, if

69
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: we're in the plane, we're in the plan.

70
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 2: Are we healthy? That's all that mattered. We like teams

71
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: are gone.

72
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: So with that being a case where we no longer

73
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: have to worry about being a top eight team. Now

74
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: we're just a top ten team. And if you're a

75
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: top ten team, you see teams a top ten or

76
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: teams are below five hundred. Yeah, well we'll give this

77
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 1: game away. We promote the health of our players long

78
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: term more than we care about winning tonight against Portland.

79
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, Luca, who played that? That's awesome, right, We

80
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: feel really good about what we did. But because we

81
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: played the Heat last night and we won, Yeah, we're

82
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: gonna sitt all our guys tonight. Translation, we already got

83
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: your money. Those of you that were gonna buy tickets

84
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: already bought them. The advertiser have already bought what they're

85
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: buying for the regular season. The only that matters is

86
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: the end game, when we get to the player, because

87
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: that's where the national money is dictated and we need

88
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: to worry about that for future contract?

89
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 2: What did I do? Did I? Did I handle this right?

90
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 3: Yah?

91
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 1: Yeah you did good. I'm gonna have you buy money.

92
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: Guy in negotiations now appreciate that. Let's settle a WNBA

93
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: CBA first. But like, but that's where That's one thing

94
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: the NBA has failed to see.

95
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: Is it. Oh, at the playing round, we're doing X,

96
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:20,559
Speaker 2: Y and Z. It's great.

97
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: Oh, but load management and teams playing back to backs,

98
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: this has been something you're not going to win on right.

99
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: Teams are not unless you tell, unless they said, well,

100
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 1: we'd like to see teams you know, you know, proved

101
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 1: to me that a guy is sitting. Yeah, they don't

102
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: care at twenty five thousand dollars. Fine, if you're sitting somebody.

103
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 2: They have not.

104
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,239
Speaker 1: The NBA and Adam Silver continues to think they're gonna

105
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: make headway in this storyline where team No, if we

106
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: don't want to play our guys, we're not gonna play

107
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:48,239
Speaker 1: our guys.

108
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.

109
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: We're not gonna start Luca tonight. We're not gonna start

110
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: Austin reason night, the most exciting backcourt in the NBA.

111
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: These guys played thirty eight minutes a piece last night. No, sorry,

112
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: they're not gonna play. We're not sorry. They're not gonna

113
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: play it all tonight. We're gonna go with a with

114
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: a completely backup lineup. It's working because we don't care

115
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 1: about winning that much. And this is where the NBA

116
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: they have to realize, Okay, we're not gonna win this

117
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 1: battle against the teams. What can we do about back

118
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: to back games? What can we do about this? We

119
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: can't because you put this product out there, Eventually teams

120
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: are gonna sa we're not buying our tickets. Oh, second

121
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: night of back to back? Yeah, maybe we're not gonna

122
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 1: buy tickets for that game. Maybe Normally I would say, oh, hey,

123
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: I can get his tickets for the for the Lakers

124
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: and the and the and the Blazers. Oh I can

125
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: get those tickets. Yeah great, Yeah, but second night of

126
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: back to back? Or are the stars gonna play? Or

127
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 1: the good player is gonna play? Yeah, maybe we don't

128
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 1: go to that game. And all of a sudden there's

129
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 1: tickets unsold. Here's the thing, though, they already got you

130
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: you know what, because those games are gonna be sold out.

131
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: The only people lose it. Are the scalpers. Okay, any

132
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: scalpers are people too, Okay. They gotta make a living

133

Speaker 2: Right, but they're winning.

158
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: We have some UIE cards, try to sell them. Now

159
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: have to go in the fourth quarter. We have more

160
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 1: basketball on the way. But Cowboys lose tonight in an

161
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 1: epic fail of a game. Right. We broke it down

162
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: last hour on the show a couple of times, Jerry

163
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: Jones letting it slip in an interview earlier today that

164
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: he potentially has already made one trade ahead of the

165
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: deadline and we'll know about it tomorrow, because you know,

166
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones cares more about theater than about winning. So

167
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: with that being a big backdrop coming into the game tonight,

168
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys go out and get boat raced by the

169
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals and Jacoby Brissett and guys are running back. Then,

170
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: unless you play fantasy, you have no idea who these

171
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: guys are. Do the Cowboys have a trade? Do they

172
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: have more trades coming? Jerry Jones spoke about these topics

173
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: following the game.

174
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 2: Here's Jerry Jones.

175
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 3: I thought we would play better than this. We could

176
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 3: just came out and they had a good game plan.

177
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 3: Cardinals did very disapporning about all I can say about.

178
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: Three said that maybe you should consider not making it

179
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: right now today so much suns engage your opinion.

180
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 3: Again, I hear he's been your opinions, and you can

181
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 3: rest assured that, at least through my mind, that all

182
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: those considerations were there. It was there before this game,

183
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 3: it was there when we started to seasoned about whether

184
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: you make a trade or not. But what's got this

185
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 3: on point is tomorrow's or trade deadline. Jennie, we've either

186
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 3: got to or get off the pod tomorrow now again

187
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 3: Number one, Number one.

188
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones now being in his eighties now sounds like

189
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: me doing an impression of Jerry Jones more than he ever.

190
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 2: Has my Jerry Jones because it's lower. It is later

191
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 2: in the season.

192
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: Came down to you been talking a lot, had a

193
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: lot to say doing these interviews. Night's get later. It's

194
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: midnight now. Just got to make sure you oh. Kind

195
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: of sound like the Smith guy doing impression to me.

196
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: It's kind of like that scene in the Harry Potter

197
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: movies where her mind he's got to act like Bellatricks

198
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: doing an impression of her when she goes to get

199
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: her money out of the Gringotts.

200
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: Kind of a weird thing.

201
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: So I kind of sound like him doing an impression

202
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: to me, I should like to enter my vault, and

203
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: I got to tell the goblins that I'm getting into

204
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: the vault, and they don't want to let me in

205
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: until they realize it's me.

206
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 2: Then then you know the whole thing with voldemorton. They

207
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 2: got the Big and Charlie Weis Lee and the Dragon. Yeah,

208
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 2: how'd we never get a spin off of the Goblin world? Well,

209
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 2: be good? Well you saw what happened to some of

210
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: the Goblins at the end of the movie. Well, I

211
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,400
Speaker 2: mean they had a good run. Yeah, well, well they

212
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: had the money and then they didn't have the money anymore.

213
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: Uh so number one, number two job with about five

214
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: with the guys, I mean, think about think about this

215
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: with with with Cherry Jones, right with with he intimates

216
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 1: have a trade, but I'm not gonna say it until tomorrow,

217
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: and maybe I have more trades, maybe I don't. Again,

218
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: someone's got to pull the emergency brake and have an intervention.

219
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: Someone whose voice resonates, whether it's Dak or Steven, somebody

220
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: to say, Jerry, you can't keep treating us like a

221
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: reality show.

222
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 2: It's done.

223
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: Someone's got to be strong enough to do that, because

224
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: I guarantee you this right, Jerry Jones wouldn't talk about

225
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: the trade tonight. How much you want to bet right number?

226
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: I opined last hour that maybe the trade he's talking about,

227
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: the one he made was the Micah trade two months ago.

228
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 2: But what if? What if this is the deal?

229
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: And Jerry Jones said, well, I made the deal with

230
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: the team, but I said it's contingent upon us winning tonight.

231
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: So I can call the GM of that team if

232
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: we don't win and say, hey, I know the deal

233
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: I agreed to. I want to call it off, kind

234
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: of like when you make a bad trade in fantasy

235
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: and you can call the commissioner and say, hey, didn't

236
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: want to do that deal. I didn't want to make

237
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: that trade. Can we can we cancel that trade. I

238
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: know it's really not a cool thing, but I don't

239
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: want to make that trade anymore. So we lost tonight,

240
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: so now I'm not trading for the Hendrickson kid. I'm

241
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: not trading for Breese Hall. Whatever it is I really want.

242
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 1: There's to be the wonders if this trade was made

243
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: with a contingency that if they win tonight, we're gonna

244
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: make the trade. Like Jerry Jones, nothing is off the table, right,

245
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: But it's it's just to hear him talk about this,

246
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: like the results on the field matter, man, Like what

247
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: you see on the field matters, not just can I

248
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: keep the attention going for the Cowboys? Can I keep

249
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: us top of mind by making a trade? Now when

250
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: you want to make a headline. These are decisions that

251
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: are tough to explain to people. These are tough decid

252
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: that you have to worry about how they resonate in

253
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: the locker room with your coaching staff. It's not just

254
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: I got us attention, No, but now we have to

255
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 1: deal with the real world fallout of the fact that

256
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: you got us attention, which is, here's a player that

257
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: we would rather have a draft pick for or or

258
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: we'd rather have this guy instead of here. You make

259
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 1: moves like not understanding that there's a big impact on

260
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: the field and winning is really what matters. Yeah, unfortunately,

261
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: he's Oh he's kind of Woody Johnson just maybe maybe

262
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: a little better off, right, because again, they win double

263
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: double digit games with some regularity.

264
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: Jets don't win double digit right, so as much as folks.

265
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 1: Again, and this is where I stand back Jerry to

266
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: a point is that they've had a lot of regular

267
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: seasons that have been what you would consider in most

268
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: cities a success. They just don't have the Super Bowls

269
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,959
Speaker 1: that he won back in the nineties. So that's how

270
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: he's he's measured. But he's a lot like Woody Johnson

271
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: in the all right, well, the business side of it.

272
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: We really got this down and we can get attention

273
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: what we want, and we get all the headlines. Unfortunately,

274
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 1: with that comes the poison pen the impressions, most of

275
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: which are not flattering. You try to show Jerry some

276
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: love now you make fun of him, but it's done

277
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: so with a you know, a kind kind feel to it,

278
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: as opposed to an acidic tongue. Now where it goes

279
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: with this trade thing, I think you're absolutely right that

280
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: there was something that he could say the contingent on

281
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: this and you know, you get an extra pick here

282
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: or whatever and and we'll iron out the details. Or

283
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: he could just claim that Stephen made the call for him,

284
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: that Steve's doing an impression now just you know it's me,

285
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: it's Jerry.

286
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 2: We want to make this trade now for the Henderson kid. Oh,

287
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 2: Jerry nice to talk to you. Yeah, that's great.

288
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: Uh, dad wants I mean I want to uh uh

289
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: make a move, So we're gonna do this here?

290
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: Did you just say, Dad?

291
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 4: No?

292
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: No, I meant I was thinking about my dad who

293
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 1: had the zoo uh you know a long time ago.

294
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 1: Uh but uh, I want to make a trade. Jerry

295
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: gotta put your voice through the voice verification. No, no, no, no,

296
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 1: it's still me. Maybe that's what maybe Stephen Jones he say, hey,

297
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: Jason Smith does a great Jerry, we need to make trades.

298
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: I get him down in Dallas trade. I make calls. No, no,

299
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: I make calls pretending to be Jerry Jones. Can you

300
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: fake the vocal print because there might be you know

301
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: something you've got to fake instead of a handprint, you know,

302
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: it's the voice.

303
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 2: Id h. I would I would need the uh, the

304
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 2: Breis Hall kid to come in and play running back

305
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: for us a little bit with Javonte, So mooge want

306
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 2: to make that move for you? Can we and you know,

307
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 2: really don't lack the field's kid. He's been terrible.

308
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: I can't believe you go into this season with thinking

309
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 1: that offense is gonna work when you're taking it back

310
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 1: to like nineteen eighty three.

311

00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,320

372
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: the Lakers are on the cusp of running away from

373
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 1: the Blazers. They lead it now one seventeen to one

374
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,159

375

376
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: they gonna win without all their starters?

377
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 2: Jason, Well, how are they gonna do it? Well, I

378
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 2: didn't say they couldn't win. Said it was basically did No.

379
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 2: I didn't say that. No, don't.

380
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: Nobody's coming down even more mocking need I said overall

382
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,879

383
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 1: Well they won again. Yeah, but generally that that's one

384
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: of the leads. I want to know if you tried

385
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: to force Martin to say that, and after you put

386
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: him in a really uncomfortable position after the last like

387
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,520

Speaker 2: Let's go.

392
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: Jake la Ravia starts tonight for the for the Lakers.

393
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: He's eleven to five and four. Ruyachimoras got twenty six

394
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: de andre eight and twenty five ten and two levels

395

Speaker 1: in Arizona.

396
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 3: Again.

397
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:29,719
Speaker 2: What about Nick Smith junior?

398
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: Oh man, he just hit a bay, just hit a

399
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: big shot, twenty five points for him, in his twenty

400
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: five minutes off the bench. Dang the Lakers. The Lakers

401
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: can wave Lebron.

402
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 2: They could. We don't need him, We don't need Lebron anymore.

403
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 2: Just wave told you that a while.

404
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: Just let him go, Just let him told you he can.

405
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: He can have his release to go wherever he wants.

406
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,439
Speaker 1: He just has to give back the fifty two point

407
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: nine million dollars.

408
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 2: We'll pay you. We'll pay you off, Lebron. We don't

409
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 2: need you anymore. Oh no, no, no, no, he pays it

410
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 2: back to them.

411
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: Don't know if they're gonna let him go like that.

412
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: He can't walk away with that money. He's good.

413
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 2: He had a chance to leave before.

414
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: See you, Lebron. We didn't know if we needed after

415
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: Austin Reeve turned into a superstar. Now we really don't think.

416
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 1: We now have proof of concept.

417
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 2: I look at Hayton.

418
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 1: We gotta I mean, just think about this, like, who

419
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 1: is Lebron gonna take minutes? So Lebron can't take away

420
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 1: Jake la Ravi's minutes eleven and five and five with

421
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: three steals and he Ames got three blocks.

422
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 2: It's so awesome. At this point, he can't take Browny's minutes.

423
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 1: No, no, Bronny came off the bench. I played nineteen minutes.

424
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: He's got five and six tonight plus minus of zero.

425
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 1: He didn't hurt anything. Listen, we only have room for

426
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: one James and where we're taking Bronny. Okay, I know,

427
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: I know it's gonna upset you and you should normally

428
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 1: feel great about your kid, but uh yeah, sorry about that. Yeah,

429
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: but think about it. Eventually you get Kleba back into

430
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: the rotation as well. So I mean, come on, don't

431
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: need him either. You get rid of a lot of guys.

432
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: His name's Max. We need a Max. You can get

433
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 2: rid of a lot of guys watching the rotation. We

434
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 2: didn't need nobody else. Man, Well you need Luca and Austin.

435
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 2: You got a good agitator.

436
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got a good agitator in in our guy,

437
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: Marcus Smart. Come on, trade Luca back to the Mavericks

438
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: and you get Cooper Flag and then you call this sucks.

439
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, maybe everybody's sleeping on the Lakers without Lebron.

440
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 1: This is just just think for a set of them.

441
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: You know, you know that Lebron was thinking this season's

442
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: gonna start. I'm not gonna play. This is the only

443
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,479
Speaker 1: way for the Lakers to really understand how important I am,

444
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: because they've pushed like this game, the Lakers and Lebron

445
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: have been playing, and this game is gonna end in

446
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: a in about forty seconds, Lakers have a ten point lead.

447
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: You know, the only way Lebron could get any kind

448
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,959
Speaker 1: of sway back because the Lakers are moving on without him, right,

449
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: They would love him to be gone, but fifty one

450
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: million dollars, he's not taking less. Maybe at the deadline

451
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,040
Speaker 1: they can make a trade, but you know he is

452
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 1: no longer in the circle of trust. They love move

453
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: on without him. How does he get back any sort

454
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: of power? Well, I'm not going to play the beginning

455
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: of the season, and with so many moving parts he's

456
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,920
Speaker 1: banking on, the Lakers are going to struggle. But when

457
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: I come back, I'm gonna save them. Right, I'm gonna

458
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: save the Lakers when I get back. And that's the

459
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: only way that I can get any sort of swerve.

460
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 2: Back with this team.

461
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: I love swerve where this is the only way I

462
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: can get any sort of or or any sort of

463
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: influence back, where we realize, okay, we need me, right,

464
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: Luca can't do it all by himself. But what's happened?

465
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Luca is doing it by himself. Oh,

466
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 1: by the way, he doesn't have to because Austin Reeves

467
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 1: has become a superstar. We saw the games that Luca

468
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 1: was missing. He carried the team by himself, a fifty

469
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 1: point game, a forty point game, a thirty point game

470
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: with a game winning shot Austin re This is now

471
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: a Luca Austin Reeves driven team and Lebron is the

472
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: third option when he gets back. How does Lebron fit it?

473
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: So that's bad for Lebron. Now it's even worse. And

474
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: here's a night after they just beat the Miami Heat.

475
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: They rest all their stars and they still win this

476
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,360
Speaker 1: game and they're six and two. Now you're Lebron going

477
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: this is an absolute disaster. I thought they'd get out

478
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: of the first eight ten games, three and seven, four

479
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: in sad Maybe we're meanner. Instead we're at the top

480
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 1: of the Western Conference and Lucas barely played. Auton Reeves

481
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 1: is a star guys named la Ravia and Marcus Smart

482
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: shows up and he's playing well.

483
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 2: What is happened?

484
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: This is the most this is the worst start of

485
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: the year that Lebron could possibly have thought. Oh but

486
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: I mean you go back to that one game. He

487
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: really had that strong Morpheus look to him when he

488
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: was sitting.

489
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 2: On that throne. Oh yeah, and he didn't move, yeah right,

490
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 2: he didn't cheer.

491
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: It was like he was, uh, well a statue because

492
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: he didn't turn his head or anything. Wore of those

493
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,959
Speaker 1: cool sunglasses in that suit, and there he was the

494
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: next game feeling the backlash of that. He was very

495
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 1: animated all that. We have the next game. You know,

496
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 1: they play next Wednesday night, they played the Alien. They

497
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: were guy got then you play Atlanta, Well, no, Trey

498
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 1: Young for the next month, and you got Charlotte. You know,

499
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 1: you got like five road games in a row here

500
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 1: coming up. And then eventually well Oklahoma City, Okay, that's fun.

501
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: New Orleans then Jannis, I mean he's Giannis auditioning for

502
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: a spot. I mean, I don't know, you bring on

503
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: the ninety seven Bulls will kick their ass right now.

504
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 1: With JJ Reddick actually playing minutes instead of coaching or

505
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: coaching while he's on the court, we're gonna stop for

506
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: a second.

507
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 2: Well, that's what they said. Lebron's always stopping around anyway,

508
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 2: We're stopping down. We stopping down.

509
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: JJ wants to teach us, but really, this could not

510
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: have gone worse for Lebron or better for the Lakers. No,

511
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: puts him in a great position of power. And but

512
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: here's the thing. Unfortunately you gave him that damn player option.

513
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,959
Speaker 1: Otherwise you wouldn't be dealing with this at all. Welcome

514
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 1: back for last money. No, okay, because what's the background

515
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 1: all of this. He's still fighting because he's mad that

516
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 1: he didn't get a one in one or a two

517
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: in one or whatever, and that they just left the

518
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 1: option dangling for him to take. Well, he could have

519
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: tried to play the power move and go on wherever

520
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: he wanted. Guess what I'm gonna go out on a

521
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 1: limb and say. There weren't a lot of teams that

522
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: were knocking at the door saying come on board without

523
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 1: having to give up a bunch of their core to

524
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: make it work. So Lakers are six and two in

525
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: terms without Lebron, without Lebron, all the way through without Luca,

526
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 1: without Austin.

527
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 2: Reed.

528
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: Now, your guy, Austin, guess what you're getting for the holidays.

529
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 2: He's gonna line up a bunch of Austin Reeds cards.

530
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 2: You can stare at him, maybe a couple of.

531
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, i'll do twenty five point five minutes. Yeah,

532
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: I don't wear Smith Jersey Operational Fishing. Don't wear anything free.

533
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yes, it's it's free. I'll wear Yeah,

534
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,479
Speaker 1: you'll give it to me free, I'll wear it.

535
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 2: You have to take the junior offer. I'm okay being

536
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 2: Smith junior. I'm okay with that's fine, that's all right.

537
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,640
Speaker 2: Really yeah, yeah, okay, I'm that's fine, song says Smith

538
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 2: on it. I'm good. It's kind of like way cool junior. Yeah.

539
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 2: Dune d dun d d dan.

540
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: Now, meanwhile, the game of the week in the NFL, right, well,

541
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 1: the game of the week. The most exciting game was

542
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 1: the Bears and the Bengals, but the biggest game of

543
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: the week the Bills and the Chiefs. And I told

544
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: John Friday, this is where the Chiefs saw a Boh,

545
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: they're the best team in the AFC. They're back.

546
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 2: Look at what they have now.

547
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I said, this is where the road to the

548
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: super Bowl hits a speed bump because they're playing a

549
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,239
Speaker 1: good team. Who was revd up for this game. The

550
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 1: Bills have been kind of meandering this season. I mean, look,

551
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 1: the Patriots are better than expected, they're having a good year.

552
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: They should never beat the Bills in this game. But look,

553
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: when you get as far as the Bills do every year,

554
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: you're playing the AFC Championship game every single week, and

555
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: you're playing to get back there, you lose a little

556
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: bit of focus. You're not as flat.

557
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 2: This is a game.

558
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: You knew the Bills would be up for it, and

559
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 1: they were, and they were the better team on the

560
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: field against the Chiefs. And I've been so right about

561
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: Kansas City from the beginning of the season. Stock up

562
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: on Patrick Mahomes, stock down on KC. The entire season

563
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: for Kansas City doesn't boil down to the fact that

564
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: they're done. They're tough, but it's going to be a

565
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: struggle because they're not as good as the other younger,

566
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: deeper teams in the AFC. We have seen that the

567
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 1: entire season. They have beat one good team, and that's Detroit,

568
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: right in Detroit. But now Detroit's having some problems, but

569
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: Detroit's still really good. Their offense is really good.

570
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 2: That's it.

571
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: Everyone else they've beaten stinks Buffalo is the first elite

572
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: team they've played since then, and Buffalo out athleticize them.

573
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: They own the field. They ran the football without any

574
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: big wide receiving threats. Dalton k and Kaid had the

575
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 1: breakout game They've been waiting four years for all of

576
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,719
Speaker 1: a sudden hundred yards against the Chiefs. Like whatever, they

577
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,480
Speaker 1: could just keep that guy healthy, he's your number one.

578
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: Whatever the Bills wanted to do in this game, they did.

579
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: And I don't mean like they exerted the world the

580
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: entire game, but they said, we want to come out,

581
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: we want to run the football, want to move it

582
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 1: up and down the field. We want to own the

583
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,720
Speaker 1: middle of the field. We want to do all of

584
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 1: these things they did. We want to hold down the

585
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: Chiefs offense. We know they can't run the football. They

586
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: did that. The Chiefs are going. It's just going to

587
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 1: be a struggle. It's not like I said, it's not

588
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 1: the Chiefs are done. But this window of the Chiefs

589
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,200
Speaker 1: being the big Super Bowl favorites, guess what they've gotten

590
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 1: passed by teams that are all looks. It's easier to

591
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,200
Speaker 1: get younger and deeper when you're not spending all kinds

592
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 1: of money, top heavy players, and this is what the

593
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: Chiefs are doing. So yeah, when they get their playmakers back,

594
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 1: Like I said, stuck up on Patrick Mahomes. But this

595
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: is a team that's sitting around five exactly where I

596
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 1: thought they'd be going into the by they're right around

597
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 1: five hundred. Now we'll see what happens second half of

598
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: the season, and certainly in the next twenty four hours.

599
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 1: I would expect them to be active in terms of

600
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: the trade market, because you clearly don't have a number

601
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 1: one running back. The Checko's had many a shot and

602
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 1: many a bite at the proverbial apple hasn't been that guy.

603
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt flashes once in a while. Otherwise he's pedestrian

604
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 1: defense has been pretty good. Exploited a bit yesterday. You

605
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: saw the big plays to Kincaid as you mentioned, and

606
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: certainly running the football with James Cook, who's been phenomenal

607
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 1: all year long. Twenty seven carries one fourteen not a

608
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 1: great average, but guess what you're grinding clock. The big

609
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: thing that was surprising was that the Bills defense actually

610
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: showed up because they'd been terrible, and that's the only

611
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 1: thing that worries me. Because look, you play players on

612
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 1: the schedule. Chiefs at five and four. It's been a

613
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 1: miserable slog week to week. Travis Kelce looks like he's

614
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 1: running in mud at times. Rashi Rice is back and

615
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,320
Speaker 1: can make the big play four for eighty and then

616
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 1: you're still working out the rest of that receiving core

617
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: to decide how much they get the play in. But

618
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: nobody's running away and hiding. This Bills team is far

619
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: from perfect. Everybody's got wartz. In the AFC, we watched

620
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: the Steelers rise up and beat the Colts. They needed

621
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,959
Speaker 1: a lot of turnovers to do it. Offensively, they were

622
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: still terrible, but for one week, their defense rose up.

623
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: Just like this week, the Bills defense rose up as

624
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: if it were the Super Bowl, as if this were

625
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 1: the AFC title game. Guess what, it's a game at

626
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: the beginning of November. Don't see each other get him.

627
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 2: You know?

628
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: For the Chiefs. Just think about this for a second, right,

629
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,719
Speaker 1: Breecee Hall has been the big name. Now he's the

630
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: most the youngest, most impact offensive player you can get.

631
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 3: Right.

632
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: Jacobe Myers is a nice player to get, but he's

633
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 1: shown you I'm just a guy I'm not gonna Yeah,

634
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: I don't like the way he's running the last couple

635
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: of weeks, Like they know, I want to be traded,

636
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 1: but brief as good as what. It's not just the

637
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: Chiefs though, Don't do it if you're not a team

638
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: that needs a running back. That doesn't because the Jets

639
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: want a third round pick for breeseall right, that's what

640
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: that's what they that's what they're holding out for. You

641
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: see the talent he has, he's in every down. Running

642
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: back doesn't have to come off the field. He's good

643
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: in the passing game, everywhere. He's one of those running

644
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: backs that you don't have to worry about, well, will

645
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 1: he fit into what we do well? Like like Davon Achen,

646
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: I think you can say, would he be someone that

647
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 1: he's a little bit more time to fit into it,

648
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: because clearly the Miami Dolphins offense has built a certain way. Yeah,

649
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 1: I could see or maybe a chan would be a

650
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: player where this talent is undeniable, but maybe he needs

651
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: a little bit more time to get in because it's

652
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: about timing and his speed. But Breece Hall is someone

653
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: that he's succeeding on a team here that has no

654
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: threats to throw the football to Garrett Wilson is out,

655
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. He's physical, he's got breakaway speed, catches the ball.

656
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 2: Out of the backfield.

657
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: If a team doesn't call the Jets and say, okay,

658
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: here's a third round pick for him, what are you

659
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 1: really doing. We think we're this close, we're running back

660
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: away from the Super Bowl. But no, no, We'll give

661
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 1: a fourth round pick, but not a third round pick.

662
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 1: What are you doing? Why wouldn't you do something? Jets

663
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: are saying, you want a first round pick for a

664
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: guy at the end of the year, you don't know

665
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: if you can happen. Third round pick, Yeah, third round

666
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: pick is a starter, but is a premium player. Breese

667
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: Hall is a He is the premium offensive player on

668
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: the market. If the Jets can't get a third round

669
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: pick for him tomorrow, well it is the Jets, so

670
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: I'm always expecting failure. But they really should be able

671
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: to hold firm and say third round pick for Breese Hall.

672
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: There's too many contenders that still need help in the

673
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: running back room. Now, the Bears were in that moment

674
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 1: and I actually put them in the contender right there

675
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: on that left side of the Ledger of tough games

676
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: to go, and they've got a terrible schedule to come up.

677
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: But you got DeAndre Swift and now you found your

678
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: guy in Moning guy. But you know what, you can

679
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 1: always do the ocean's eleven. You think we need one more.

680
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: They obviously be working more on the defensive end after

681
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: losing a big part of their defensive line this this

682
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: weekend against the Bengals. But for the rest of the market,

683
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 1: I mean, Alvin Kamara is solid, not gonna cost you much.

684
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 1: He kind of wants to stay in New Orleans, but

685
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: recognizes where they're at and what they want to do.

686
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 1: So perhaps it's a low round pick that gets him.

687
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: But is he a difference maker. No, you've got the

688
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: two guys you mentioned them, Haul and eh Chan. Now

689
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 1: Ehchan a little bit leaner in that rookie contract. There's

690
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: still more time on that, so it's going to cost

691
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: you a bit more. But as you say, you know

692
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 1: with Breise Hall, you know you talk about explosiveness and

693
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: the ability to catch the ball and make plays out

694
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: of the backfield as a receiver.

695
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 2: They both can do that.

696
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: And now it's just who's the acting GM in Miami

697
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: that would pick up the phone, like, there's the question

698
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: right now? All right, you fired Greer, who's empowered to

699
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: do anything you make Jalen Phillips, Well, I mean they

700
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: kept showing cutaways to him when they talked about glory days, right,

701
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: twenty four years since that last playoff win. But yeah,

702
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 1: that's that's the question, right Whoever whoever consummated that Phillips deal,

703
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: get them on the horn and just start going down

704
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: the line. And a chance should be on another team too.

705
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: You're not building around a running back. You're just not

706
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 1: go find another couple of draft picks, get a couple

707
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: of high round picks and flip that over. But for

708
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: your Jets, yeah, third round pick. With all the teams

709
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,719
Speaker 1: in need of help at that position, that should be easy.

710
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: Time out to find out what's trending in the wide

711
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: world of sports, and Martin wiss and what you got

715
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,400

716
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 5: Kyler Murray, who's ruled inactive.

717
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: In the hour before the game. He was questionable leading

718
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 2: up to it.

719
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,120

722
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 5: catches ninety six yards through the air, and the losing effort,

723

724
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:32,840

725
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 5: a fumble date in the fourth quarter, which pretty much

726
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,719
Speaker 5: sealed Dallas's chance of trying to come back in this

727
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 5: when it was all Cardinals from start to finish. Commanders

728
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 5: linebacker Frankieluv who has been suspended without pay for one

729
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 5: game for hip drop tackles. The Ravens have traded for

730
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 5: Titans edge rusher Vermont Jones for a fifth round pick

731
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 5: that could become a fourth rounder, the Eagles acquiring Dolphins

732
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 5: linebacker Jalbn Phillips for an exchange for a twenty twenty

733

Speaker 1: say about the last couple of innings of that game

772
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: and the heroics of me Gil Rojas and plays at

773
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: the plate, But I want to say this because this

774
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: should be the last time I ever have to say it.

775
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 1: In the bottom of the eleventh inning, when vlad Guerrero

776
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 1: Junior leads off with a double. Right. This is after

777
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,720
Speaker 1: Will Smith took the air out of the Rogers Center

778
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: with a big home run. I'm leading off with a double.

779
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,399
Speaker 1: You're the Blue Jays. You're thinking big inning. We're gonna

780
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: not only tie this game, we could win it. Our

781
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: best player leads off with a double. Let's go. They

782
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: bunt him over to third. I could hear the screen

783
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,760
Speaker 1: like all those millions of people when all the around

784
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 1: got blown up. We're gonna do it all suddenly sign it.

785
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna do the Dodgers a favor, and we're gonna

786
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: do Yamamoto a favor by bunting and giving him an

787
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: out makes no sense. Obviously, you saw the outcome after

788
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: a walk, Kirk gets into a double play. Dodgers win

789
00:36:55,600 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: the World Series. Bunting is such an outdated strategy, and

790
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 1: teams still want to do it, not understanding or not

791
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: realizing that the act of bunting doesn't automatically result in Hey,

792
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 1: we pull off a successful bunt, put a run on

793
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,479
Speaker 1: the board. Number one. We've seen this playoff. How many

794
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 1: teams have gone home because they can't execute a bunt?

795
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: Pop ups to ask players to bunt, they can't do

796
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: it anymore. Right, So number one, you the bunt is

797
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 1: great in theory, but you have to be able to

798
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: execute it. We've seen teams not execute it and go

799
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: home because they can't execute a bunt, right. We've seen that.

800
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: Not only that, but okay, getting the runner over, that's great.

801
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 1: You gotta get him in. If you don't get him in,

802
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 1: you know what, that is an unsuccessful strategy because you

803
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 1: gave the other team an out. Instead of let's try

804
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 1: three chances to get a runner in from set he's

805
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: already in scoring position. Let's try three tries to get

806
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: a runner in from second base rather than a two

807
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 1: tries with a runner on third or one try, because

808
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 1: then you had to do all play to end the game.

809
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 1: So you had one try. You had one try rightaway.

810
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: So one try from third or three tries from second,

811
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: that's what you wound up having, That's what you wound

812
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: up getting. I should not need to ever talk about

813
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: the bunt again, and teams should say, you know what,

814
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: we are just not gonna do it. The Blue Jays

815
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 1: decided to give the Dodgers a break, let them catch

816
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 1: their breath, give them an out and instead they wound

817
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,360
Speaker 1: up going home. Well, you're also in the heart of

818
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 1: your order now, I know you took Bashett out obviously

819
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: the concerns with him running the bases. You'd already lifted him.

820
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,399
Speaker 1: So fine, you don't have his bat, but you're still

821
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:45,959
Speaker 1: looking at you know, Barger, Kirk coming up, etc.

822
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 2: Let them hit, let them swing away. I mean, it's the.

823
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 1: Heart of the order that's done a lot of damage

824
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: over the course of the series. The ground ball the

825
00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 1: fly ball ratio is about a one for Yamamo, know,

826
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,200
Speaker 1: based on the way he pitches and the and the

827
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: action he's got on the ball ahead of the plate,

828
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: So it's not like you're getting that that big lift necessarily.

829
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 1: That becomes another part of the strategy. The defense is

830
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: going to be in to cut everything off, and Guerrero

831
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: Junior is not exactly fleet to foot, so that ninety

832
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: foot chase might be a little difficult.

833
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,240
Speaker 2: For him, particularly with the way.

834
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 1: Look, the Dodgers suddenly the last couple of games, but

835
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 1: what we were talking about the acumen of their defensive players,

836
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 1: didn't they could see that after the hundred and sixty. No,

837
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: didn't have that on my Bengo card defensively, the TODs

838
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: the Dodge are going to make the plays defensively to

839
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 1: win the World Series.

840
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 2: Did not have that mud times multiple games. Yeah, and

841
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 2: there you have it.

842
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 1: So, yeah, you put Yamamoto back in an area of

843
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 1: comfort and he finishes the job. I mean, I understand

844
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: the old strategy and bunting used to work a long

845
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,799
Speaker 1: time ago, when lots of guys could bunt and you

846
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: could find a way to hit a fly ball together.

847
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 1: But the way Pitcher's thrown and look at Yamamota, right,

848
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,959
Speaker 1: you knew his strategy. I'm not giving bars or anything

849
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: good to hit because you know what I can know.

850
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: I can get Kirk to do hit the ball on

851
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 1: the ground. It's what I do with my splitter. Is

852
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: Kirk fast?

853
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 2: No he's not. We get a double play win the

854
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 2: World Series? What happened?

855
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: Double play? They won the World Series? I mean, I

856
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: really fail to get how you can tell me that

857
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: playing for that one run is the right thing to

858
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,839
Speaker 1: do well, And you look at the Blue Jays over

859
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: the course of the series. They hit two sixty nine

860
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 1: to the Dodgers. What two two and change or something

861
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: like that was the final stat But it's still in

862
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 1: a twenty twenty five. It's not the same contact, even

863
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 1: though they're higher than most that the strikeout's still big

864
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: on the table as well, and you're not getting a

865
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:51,319
Speaker 1: lot of great swings on yabam motor. Yeah, Guerrero got one,

866
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:53,760
Speaker 1: but those have been kind of rare in the course

867
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: of this series. Right, You're not getting a lot of

868
00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: good looks, a lot of good swings at him. So

869
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,799
Speaker 1: to give yourself up that way and given out away

870
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,319
Speaker 1: just seems silly on many levels. Like we go back

871
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 1: to baseball growing up, where you had multiple guys in

872
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: your lineup that weren't exactly uh, the the greatest hitters.

873
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 2: Uh. And the picture batting.

874
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,840
Speaker 1: Sure, the bunt's part of it because that's the picture

875
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: could at least lay down a bunt, But now you

876
00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 1: look at it, with the amount of strikeouts going through

877
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: a lineup, there's no guarantee and clearly that they took

878
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: the l on that one. Bunting is a relic of

879
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 1: a bygone era. I would put the bunt in our

880
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:32,399
Speaker 1: sports stonehenge if I could, but it's gonna keep coming back.

881
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,799
Speaker 1: What's the only in the playoffs, though people think I'm

882
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 1: in the regular season I'm coaching. We're gonna bunt watch

883
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: watch Okay, yeah and guess what you went home because yeah,

884
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. And then Double Switch was a master's class.

885
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: Coming up, we got a we got a crazy NBA

886
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: story your way, and a trade that has to happen

887
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:49,760
Speaker 1: in the NFL.
