What's happening Everybody? 4 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 1: This is the official Lakers podcast. I'm your host, Microdell, 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: super pumped to be your flanked by Arn Lars Tool. 6 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,759 Speaker 1: You ready to go, I'm ready to get it. I 7 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 1: think the Lakers will be a top ten defense. And 8 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: you're telling you try to get a little far away. 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: A team that has two stars, or two superstars in 10 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: this case of Lebron and Ad can sometimes can't fer 11 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 1: each other out. But I think they're both good candidates. 12 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 1: Cranby Seas, I really like the way that this team 13 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: just feels to be around the It's a it's a 14 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: very clear message that's two stars and Lebron and Ad, 15 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: and it's everybody else that's on board the relationship that 16 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: is developing between those two off the court and on 17 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: the court. They're cohesive news on the court. I think 18 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: in this case, this is a special case that the 19 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: two of them will enhance each other as opposed to 20 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: taking away from each other.

It's kind of surprised, a pleasantly 45 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,119 Speaker 1: surprised that he had time to join us. He wasn't 46 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: available the last couple of days. But maybe they're starting 47 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 1: to feel a little bit better about what's happening. Maybe 48 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: it's a victory lap for the NFL Players Association. So 49 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 1: Demorris Smith heads up.

Oh all right, we'll 59 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: hold off on that, Yes, all right, let me start 60 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 1: with the Al Michael's situation. The hot stove period was 61 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: a term that originated in baseball and that was used 62 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: to describe the offseason all the moves that were being made. 63 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: And now it's become a huge deal in every sport, 64 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: Like we have a hot stove league for all sports, 65 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: including broadcasting, and we've got rumor mills, you know, you know, 66 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure if this is true or not, 67 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: but I'm hearing now. It really took off when CBS 68 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: signed Tony Romo for seventeen million dollars a year. Then 69 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: the news came out that CBS actually looked at Peyton Manning. 70 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: Remember when we heard the salary for Peyton Manning that 71 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: it was somewhere between ten and twelve million, But you 72 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: got Romo for seventeen And maybe I've got it out 73 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: of order, or that ESPN was looking at Peyton Manning 74 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: for ten to twelve million dollars a year. And I went, 75 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: first of all, if you offer him ten to twelve 76 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: million dollars a year, the first thing Peyton's going to 77 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: say is I want more than Tony Romo. If you 78 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: want me to do this, I got a couple of 79 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: Super Bowl rings here, I'm the one that originated all 80 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage. I'll tell you what's happening 81 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: in real time. ESPN also reportedly interested in Philip Rivers. Now, 82 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: I think Philip Rivers might turn out to be sneaky good. 83 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: He's different than Peyton Is. I think, you know, just 84 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: his delivery got a little bit of a Southern draw 85 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: to him, and I think he's sneaky, funny and he 86 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: could be prickly there probably in the broadcast booth. But 87 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: now we're, you know, listening to guy. I thought Drew Brees, 88 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: if Drew Brees got a good enough offer, that maybe 89 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 1: he was to go into the broadcast booth. I have 90 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: no inside knowledge on this, but I thought if he 91 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: was going to be deciding not to come back and 92 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,239 Speaker 1: the CBS job was open, or the Monday night job 93 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: was open, that maybe Drew Brees would take that. But 94 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: he would be leaving a very good team. And that's 95 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: why he's coming back to play. But now we have 96 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: trade rumors here. Al Michaels was once traded by ESPN 97 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: ABC to NBC and he was traded for Oswald the 98 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: Lucky Rabbit. True story. Oswald the Lucky Rabbit now Oswald 99 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: the Lucky Rabbit is revered by the Disney family because 100 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: Oswald the Lucky Rabbit was the precursor to Mickey Mouse 101 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: back in the nineteen twenties, and they wanted to have 102 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 1: those rights. And you had Al Michaels, one of the 103 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: great play by play voices in the history of sports, traded, 104 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: and now there's talk that maybe ESPN ABC is going 105 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: to try to trade back for Al Michaels. I don't 106 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: know if Oswald the Lucky Rabbit gets back in the 107 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: deal again, but they want to try to pair him 108 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: because Peyton's not going to do this unless he's got 109 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: a great play by play voice with him. I was 110 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: told that last night that who Peyton would love from 111 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: what I was told to be paired with Mike Arrico. Well, 112 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: Mike Terrico does so many things for NBC Sports. The 113 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: NBC Sports would be crazy to have Mike involved in 114 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: a deal. Plus Al Michaels has been doing this a 115 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: long time. I think Al would like to stay around 116 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: do one more Super Bowl here, and ESPN ABC trying 117 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: to get a Super Bowl here. If Peyton could work 118 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: with Mike Rico, because I think Peyton from what I 119 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: was told Peyton had talked to John Gruden and Gruden said, 120 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: you know, if you can work with Mike Arreco, do 121 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: so well. Then Mike, of course went to NBC. And 122 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: Mike's not even doing the football game on Sunday night. 123 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: He's doing the studio hosting duties. But now the possibility 124 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: of and we did reach out to Al, and Al 125 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: is out of pocket today. I don't know if Al 126 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: has ever been out of pocket, but he has today 127 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: and that's probably a smart thing. That's a smart thing 128 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: Al stay out of pocket today. But yeah, we were 129 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: curious if he was willing to come on and talk 130 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: about that. But if you're Al, you got a Super 131 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: Bowl coming up in two years and you want to 132 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: be around for that. To do that instead of being 133 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: traded to ESPN, ABC plus AL wouldn't be a long 134 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: term solution for a network whose deal is up in 135 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: two years and you're looking at a ten year deal 136 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: with the players. How long would it, you know, the 137 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: TV deal be? How long does Al want to do this? 138 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: But if you can get Peyton, and if I'm Peyton Manning, 139 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: I say to Al, if this happens, how long do 140 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: you want to do this? Now, because that would influence 141 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: my decision. If I really wanted to do this, You're 142 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: going to get paid, but I want to know who's 143 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: with me. The reason why Romo works so well is 144 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: because of Jim Nance, and it's lost on a lot 145 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: of viewers, and I understand that, but being in the 146 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: business to understand just how important and the timing of 147 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: that what Jim Nance does is not to be underrated 148 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: because Tony can kind of blurt out things as if 149 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: he's a fan at home, and then Jim has to 150 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: sort of clean up the you know, the spill and 151 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: Aisle six. It's like an air traffic controller. You're not 152 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: you got planes landing at all, you know, all the time, 153 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: different runways. Jim takes it from Tony to get it 154 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: back to the game, call the action, and then give 155 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: it back to Tony. That was so important. I think 156 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: to Tony Romo, you can go to Monday night football. 157 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 1: Who are you going to be paired with? And will 158 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: it work the same way? And it won't work the 159 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: same way. Whether it's Joe Tessatur or Mike Rico or 160 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: whoever it might be, it won't work the same way 161 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: it works with Jim Now, Peyton's gonna want to know, Hey, 162 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: who's going to be the play by play guy? And 163 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess if you're getting Peyton, you're gonna you're 164 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: gonna have to go out and get an established voice. 165 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: You know, Sean mcdonnough didn't work, and he didn't work 166 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: for a couple of reasons, not that he's not a 167 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: great voice there and a professional. He's a college voice, 168 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: and he and Gruden didn't get along. You know, they 169 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: weren't friends the way Gruden and Tarko got along. They 170 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: were friends, and that helps. It's that relationship when you 171 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: go in there, that trust that you have. It's no 172 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: different than when I anchored the Sports of eleven o'clock 173 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: Sports Center with Keith Oberman. When we got on the air, 174 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: we were friends and had each other's backs and we 175 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: had respect for one another, like you have to have 176 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: that camaraderie. And I think that's important if you're if 177 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: you're Peyton going into this situation, who's my voice? Who's 178 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: that guy? And al Michaels will make him look even greater. Yeah, 179 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: So al Michaels is kind of the Tom Brady of 180 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: sportscasters right now. First, ballot shure thing. You know what 181 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: you're getting. He's the best, truly the best, but his 182 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: shelf life is a small amount of year, three, four 183 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: years or whatever that Al wants to do. He's still 184 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: got a complete fastball. But it's like Brady, your ESPN's 185 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,560 Speaker 1: gonna put it all. Their going for him and Peyton, 186 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: But how long does that go? Yeah, I think it's 187 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: a little tricky. But you know, this is a report 188 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: out of the New York Post with Andrew Marshawn and 189 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: he's he's been breaking some stories here. This isn't just 190 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: I'm hearing. This isn't just a rumor. This is real. 191 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: And I don't know if if you're NBC you have 192 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: Mike Tariko to then do the play by play role 193 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: on Sunday Night football. ESPN doesn't have that luxury. They're 194 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: trying to say to the NFL, treat us like the 195 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: other networks, not a cable network. And that's where you 196 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: have ABC involved in this. Whenever you hear these negotiations, 197 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 1: it's ABC slash ESPN and trying to get they want 198 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 1: to dress up Monday Night football and try it one 199 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 1: more time. I'm surprised the information got out because if 200 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: you whiff on this and then you whiffed on Romo, 201 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: and then what is next? So then now we're planned 202 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: C and then do you go back to Booger McFarland 203 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: and Joe Tessa tour? Is that what you're going to like? 204 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: That's that's the distinct possibility here. I don't know if 205 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 1: you're too far down the road where you go we're 206 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: moving on from that team. I don't know. I don't 207 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: know the inner workings on this with the ESPN. I 208 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: don't have anybody up there that I've spoken to. But 209 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 1: if you know, you're starting to get the feeling that 210 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: if you're going to attract the Super Bowls as the 211 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: NFL and looking atst broadcast partners, all your other networks 212 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: have an established a team Fox with Aikman and Buck, 213 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: NBC with al Michael's Chris Collins, were CBS with Romo 214 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: and Jim Nance, ESPN Slash ABC does not have that 215 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: question is can you get it? And what's Al Michael's 216 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: worth on the open market if you're going to trade 217 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: for him again? Yeah, bo damn with this kind of 218 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: money being thrown around, let's get it going. Yeah, come on, 219 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: big guy, No, if this was like fifteen years ago, 220 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: twenty years ago, then then maybe at the height oft 221 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: Sports Center. Yes, mclovin, you know what the part that 222 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: sticks out to me that you describe Al Michaels do 223 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: you don't even know that ESPN is getting that super 224 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: Bowl in twenty twenty four. Doesn't he have to do 225 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: the short thing, the LA super Bowl his hometown. But 226 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: I don't know how long he wants to do it. 227 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: But I would guess that Al and I'm not I 228 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: wasn't told this, but Mike Tarico has to be looking 229 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 1: at that super Bowl into years as maybe Al's last game, 230 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 1: maybe the handoff there because Mike came over. Mike wants 231 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: to do play by play. He Mike's not a studio host. 232 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: Mike's a play by play guy. That's what he loves doing. Now. 233 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: He does a great job as a studio host with 234 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: the Olympics and Sunday Night Football. He wants to do 235 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: play by play. He's the guy who would go to 236 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 1: Iowa City on a Tuesday night and had no problems. 237 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: He'd go to Happy Valley and do a basketball game. 238 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 1: He didn't care. That's he That's what he loves. That's 239 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: what he's made for. But I don't know. At some point, 240 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: I don't know how long Mike Rico's contract is. But Mike, Mike, go, hey, 241 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: do you want me to do play by play here? 242 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: Because that's what I would want to know because he's busy, 243 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: but he wants to do play by play? All right? 244 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 1: Age seven seven three D P show email address DP 245 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handed a DP show mclovin. 246 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: What is the poll question that is somehow related to me? Okay, 247 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: well there's there's a college basketball poll. Okay, so Dayton 248 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 1: is hosting game day this weekend. Would you rather have 249 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: your alma mater win the nca tournament or win your 250 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: office pool? My alma mater? Is that a no brain 251 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: for everybody? What if it's like a five thousand dollars 252 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: office pool? Well, now you're you know, you're upping the 253 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: ante here. Well that's what most office pools are like, 254 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: not ours. Aren't you just for bragging rights? Now? We 255 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: just would I rather win our office pool or have 256 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: Dayton win the national title? I'd rather have Daton win 257 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: the national title. What if you're like, um, you work 258 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: somewhere where there is a five thousand dollar office pool. 259 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: I'd still rather have Dayton win the national title, and 260 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 1: Seaton would probably rather have Seaton Hall win the national title. 261 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: I'm guessing absolutely. Yeah, yeah, so you'd rather have that, well, wait, 262 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: Seaton Hall or West Virginia. Seaton Hall for sure. Okay, 263 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: it's not even close. Just knowing how much that that 264 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: would mean to people like my dad, who I mean 265 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: are just die hard supporters who still remember everything with Michigan. 266 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: You don't really get this opportunity. It's not like, you know, 267 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: it's not like we're talking about Duke, You're talking about 268 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: Seaton Hall basketball. To have them win that as we're 269 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: worth way more than five grand. What is our bet 270 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: going to be? Who goes farther in the NHAA tournament? 271 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: Yeah we can, and then what happened? Yeah, well we 272 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: have a week or two to figure that out. Maybe 273 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: people no, you know what, when we have suggestions and 274 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 1: somebody to say, you gotta shave off one eyebrow, you 275 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: have to get a tattoo of the logo on your neck, 276 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: and nobody's doing that. Well, we got to the point 277 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: with Wheel of Punishment where we were doing some crazy 278 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: things and then there was the shower of shame Paulie, 279 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: remember when he shaved the lightning bolt in the back 280 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: of his head. I pick up my kids and they 281 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: were gonna get ready to call nine one one. H Yes, 282 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: you could do something fun which isn't too painful, that 283 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: you dressed us the mascot or the Seaton's team wins, 284 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: then you got address the pirate and he's got a 285 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: dress as a pilot or something if the Flyers win. 286 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: Don't you always try to avoid any of these contests. Yeah, 287 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: I've been I've been lucky enough to miss a lot 288 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: of them, but I did get to uple. If that's 289 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: the case, I don't need your suggestions. Yeah, until you're 290 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: in the game. Wow, then you're not in the game. 291 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: But welcome back, Todd. Thank you. Yeah, we missed sort 292 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: of missed you. Luke and Alabama joins us. Hey Luke, Hey, 293 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: Luke way in with a white hot report here. Oh 294 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: it's a report, not a rumor. This is a report 295 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: from the South. I'm hearing Okay, Peyton Manning carrying up 296 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: with Eli Manning and they're bringing back the legendary Dan 297 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: Patrick to save Monday night football. Oh no, I'm hearing this. 298 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: I am hearing from my source. Well, thank you, Luke, 299 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: thank you now not interested? Not interested? Patrick experienced ESPN offer, No, 300 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: not interested, not a play by play guy. But if 301 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: you want to have Eli and Peyton in there, look, 302 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: this is a drop in the bucket. With what the 303 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: NFL means for ESPN, peyton salary is a drop in 304 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: the bucket. Now. ESPN has always been very cautious that 305 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 1: they never wanted to overpay for any of their talents, 306 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 1: because then somebody else would come in and say, hey, 307 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: I want to get paid with that guy's getting paid, 308 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: and I want to get paid. You know, they always 309 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: kept you under their thumb. With Peyton or Tony Romo, 310 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 1: this is different. Yeah, I don't know if Kirk Herbstreet's 311 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: agent all of a sudden says, well, if you're given 312 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: Peyton that now, Chris Collinsworth agent would probably then go 313 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: to NBC and say I'm the one who wins all 314 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: the awards for best color analysts here, or Troy Aikman 315 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 1: would say that I'm not only a better quarterback than 316 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 1: Tony Romo, I'm a better analyst. Maybe that's what Troy's 317 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: approach would be. But those guys are going to get 318 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: paid there's a trickle down with that. I had another 319 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 1: pole option. I don't think we put this up. Which 320 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: color analyst would you most want a big game? I 321 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: don't want you to way him is. I don't you 322 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: know these guys. But if we put a pole out 323 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: with Romo, Acman Collinsworth and put Peyton Manning in as hypothetical, 324 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 1: who wins that pole? I would I vent our guests 325 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: at Romo right now is the hot guy? Yeah? I 326 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: think Peyton. We know how funny he can be and 327 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: I know how analytical he can be and to be 328 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: able to have that combination like Tony Romo. Part of 329 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: what I love about Tony is there's excitement in his voice, 330 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: like he's really excited when he's doing a game, as 331 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: if he's a fan who somehow slipped in the booth 332 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: and then gets to tell us what's going to happen. 333 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: And you know, I think Peyton would. He might be 334 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: too serious at the start, but also he has that 335 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 1: We know that he has a great SENSEI humor. And 336 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: I think Peyton would be unbelievable as an analyst. I 337 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: really do, because he's the one who started walking to 338 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage and going I'm gonna call this 339 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,879 Speaker 1: play or did I just check down? Did I change 340 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: the play? I'm gonna do this omaha, omaha. He did 341 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: all of this and was successful. Tony Romo may have 342 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: known what was happening, he wasn't anywhere near and successful Peyton. 343 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: I think going to the line of scrimmage and then 344 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 1: being able to tell you in real time, I think 345 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: there's great value in that. Yeah. Point one thing about 346 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: Romo is we didn't see this coming when he signed 347 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,719 Speaker 1: that big deal. He's gonna get that prime job, right, Really, 348 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: he was pretty benign with the media during his NFL career. 349 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: He's very cautious with the media. Nobody saw it coming. 350 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: That first week he was on the air with I 351 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: can remember the show that money. They were like, what 352 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: the hell is this guy? Yeah? Where did this come from? Yeah? 353 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 1: And he calling a couple of plays. He was saying, oh, 354 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: you know what, they're changing the play and they're gonna 355 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: run to the right, or there's gonna be a trick 356 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 1: play here. And I think that that's Look, it's unique, 357 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying that every analyst should try to 358 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: do that, but I think Romo is unique. But I 359 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: think Peyton would do it maybe in a different way. 360 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: All right, we'll take a break here your phone calls, 361 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 1: who welcome each seven seven three D show, and we'll 362 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: come up with a poll question.

I'll give you Tony Romo, 404 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: Chris collins Worth, Troy Aikman and Peyton Manning. How about 405 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: we word at which one would you hire if you 406 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: could have all four for your network? Okay, I think 407 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 1: you know Peyton has an edge two bec he's the unknown. 408 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: He's like the Luca don Chick coming into the draft, 409 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: Luca don Chick. I like how the story it. I 410 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 1: don't know where it started, but yesterday or at least, 411 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 1: it was a question if you were gonna build your 412 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: team around Zion or Luca, who would it be. And 413 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: we've talked about this before with Reggie Miller. But I 414 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: saw where a few of the networks, a few of 415 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 1: the shows we're talking about this, and I was surprised 416 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: there were quite a few people who said Zion Williamson 417 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: over Luca. You know, we're still Zion's a phenomena. You 418 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: just have to say the word Zion and everybody knows 419 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: who you're talking about. I don't know how he evolves 420 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: as a player. I think what he does, if he 421 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: continues to do that and improve on that, he's going 422 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: to be an All Star his entire career and be 423 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: a Hall of Famer. Luca, to me, is the better player. 424 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 1: He might not be as exciting, but he makes players 425 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: around him better. He's played more basketball professional basketball than 426 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 1: Zion has. Zion you watch because you don't know there 427 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: could be something spectacular. I think Luca is just going 428 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: to be one of those players where you go, I 429 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: said this yesterday. He's twenty one, and it feels like 430 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 1: we've we've we already know what. We're not surprised by anything. 431 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 1: Oh he put up thirty seventeen and ten. Oh, thirty 432 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:20,400 Speaker 1: seventeen and ten. Oh. Zion could go five or eighteen, 433 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: but have three highlight dunks in a block and we'd go, 434 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: do you see Zion last night? That's the difference. But 435 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 1: if I was building around somebody, I'd look at it 436 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: two different ways. Zion is a phenomenon. He'll people will 437 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 1: come out to see him. Luca is a better basketball 438 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: player and I think will make your team better because 439 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 1: he does a variety of things. He's obviously a better 440 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: shooter than Zion, a better ability to score, and he's 441 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: a better passer. Zion, of course is going to score 442 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 1: and rebound. But you know, I would take Luca there. 443 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: But there were quite a few people that I respect 444 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: who said that they would build around Zion Williamson, which 445 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a wrong answer there. But 446 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: if I gave you all of these players, Luca, Zion, 447 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: Trey Young, Jason Tatum, who else do I have in 448 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 1: that mix? Has to be somebody who's about twenty. I mean, 449 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: I guess you can say John Moran. I haven't seen 450 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: enough of John Moran any towns under twenty five. Yeah, 451 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: but I don't like his game. I think he's talented, 452 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: and I just think he's going to be one of 453 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: those guys who puts up good numbers but has nothing 454 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 1: to show for it. Tatum is Tatum is in the 455 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: conversation now, benis. Yeah, I guess you'd throw him in there, 456 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: and you're throwing him bed but you know five. Yeah, Well, 457 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,440 Speaker 1: if you're just looking at twenty two and under, who 458 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: would you take that beat a little older? Because remember 459 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: he stayed in college. Yeah, I wouldn't build around embiid 460 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,959 Speaker 1: I think he's incredibly talented, but I just don't know 461 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: what his ceiling is. I don't I don't know how 462 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: important it is to be great. He can tell me 463 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: he's one of the great players in the world. I 464 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: want him to be. The Greek freak to me wants 465 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: to be great. He worked on his game to get here, 466 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: and I'm impressed by that because he came in and 467 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 1: he was nobody. He weighed up one hundred and eighty 468 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 1: pounds and now you're looking at him and you're going, 469 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: I mean, he looks like a younger Dwight Howard with 470 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: a whole lot more ability. Yeah, and be's still twenty 471 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 1: five years old. But last year, if you think that 472 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: he's not in great statement not focused, which a lot 473 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: of people think, here's twenty seven and a half, fourteen rebounds, 474 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: four assists in two blocks without giving max effort. Oh 475 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 1: my god. I mean, that's why people love himself. But 476 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's a winner. I just don't 477 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: know that. I'll kill to win. I hate losing. I 478 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: always wanted somebody who hated losing more than they loved winning, 479 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 1: because you can win, but it's that feeling when you 480 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: lose and you just it drives you crazy. I mean, 481 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: Jerry West was like that as a player and as 482 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: a GM. He just hated losing. The winning, you know, 483 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: didn't placate him as much as the losing. Eid away 484 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,439 Speaker 1: at him. The fact that he couldn't stay in the 485 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: building for a Laker game, that he would get in 486 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 1: his car and drive around because it would just eat 487 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: him up. You know. I love that in somebody where 488 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: it just you hate losing. And I don't know if 489 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: him Beat is wired that way. Yes, McLevin. There was 490 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: a game where the Celtics and six is played in 491 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: the playoffs and Beat had like thirty one or something, 492 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: and after the game Brad Stephen said, yeah, but he 493 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: didn't ay threes against us, So what do we care 494 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: if against those points? Which talks about style, like that's 495 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: why you take Luke over his eye? And don't you 496 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: need a three pointer? Yeah to win it? Why has it? 497 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 1: Charles Berkeley tweeted out after the Rockets had a embarrassing 498 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: performance last night against the Clippers. He called him a 499 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: little bunch of lepper cons. They're going to get worn 500 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: down over a seven game series and when you start 501 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: playing the leadue teams. They're going to be just as 502 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 1: good offensively, but much better defensively and on the rebuns. 503 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: But they went seven for forty two from three point 504 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: range last night. That's really hard to do. Like even 505 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: a bad team would have a hard time going seven 506 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 1: for forty two. And this is the Rockets in what 507 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: the Rockets do well. And this is back to back 508 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: games where you lose to the Knicks, now you lose 509 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: to the Clippers, and they're going to figure this out. 510 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: They're gonna be dangerous on some nights. It's just I 511 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: don't know if they can be consistent in a seven 512 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 1: game series. Can you do they have a Plan B? 513 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 1: Because a lot of these teams, you know this isn't working, 514 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: let's try this, and Houston doesn't have them. They have 515 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: one way and that's it. And that's where I would 516 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,719 Speaker 1: be nervous about small ball in the season. Regular season, 517 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: it can work, it's fun. In a postseason seven game 518 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: series against the Lakers or the Clippers, it's not gonna work. 519 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: They'll be games where you go they're unstoppable because we've 520 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: already had those games. But last night, you go seven 521 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: for forty two, You're going to have those games in 522 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: the postseason where you do don't shoot well, what else 523 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: do you do well? And I think that's going to 524 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: be the big question for them. Steph Curry came back 525 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: last night. That was a lot of fun to see. 526 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,719 Speaker 1: Now it's just the league is a better league, more 527 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: entertaining when Steph Curry's playing. He had twenty three seven assists, 528 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: six rebounds, just one turnover played to twenty seven minutes. There. 529 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 1: You know, you still see what he's capable of doing 530 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: on a nightly basis. And then you know, they get 531 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: healthy with Clay Thompson next year. Then there's Draymond Green 532 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: in there. I don't know about Wiggins. You know, Wiggins 533 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: said a nice night. I thought Wiggins could be a 534 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: great player. I thought he was gonna be, you know, 535 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: because Cleveland had him, and then they made the trade 536 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: for Kevin Love and I thought, boy, it feels like 537 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: they're going to regret that. But I don't know how 538 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: Wiggins is wired. I don't know if he wants to 539 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: be great. Now. They all they all think they're great. 540 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: They want you to tell them they're great. But I 541 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 1: don't know if you just want to go out there 542 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: and like Steph Curry wants to play because that's what 543 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: he done. When people said why would you come back? 544 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: This is what I do. I want to come back. 545 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: I want to play. Yeah. MC club. So if they 546 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: get the number one pick, would they trade that pick 547 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: for a veteran or do they draft the guy? Like 548 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: how what's their game player? Like? Would you go for 549 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: the title immediately and trade for something? Well, it depends 550 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: on who's there, because I don't I don't think there's 551 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: anybody that Golden State's gonna go gotta have him. Oh, 552 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: if we get him like James Wiseman, the Memphis kid, 553 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. He's a seven footer. He runs the floor. 554 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 1: But does he fit in with their style? You know? 555 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: Does LaMelo Ball fit in there? I don't know, you know, 556 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 1: because De'angelo Russell and I remember when they made that 557 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: deal when they when they signed D'Angelo Russell, and I 558 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: think we had Mark Stein on from the New York Times. 559 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: He said, oh, they're just they just signed him so 560 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,239 Speaker 1: they can trade him, and then everybody denied it, and 561 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: then it turned out that's what they did. They traded him, 562 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: you know, to Minnesota. I don't know if there's one 563 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: of those players that it's gonna be worth having the 564 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: number one pick. It doesn't feel like that. It feels 565 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: like they're players that can play. But I don't think 566 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: there's anybody who is, you know, a transformative talent there 567 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: that's going to help Golden State. You know, they probably 568 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: would want to get a veteran, I'm guessing, unless they 569 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: look at it and say, we need we need a 570 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: little bit more youth here because we have guys who 571 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: are in their thirties now. I don't know what the 572 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: approach for Steve Kerr would be, but they usually make 573 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 1: the correct approach. Yah mclub about LaMelo Ball as the 574 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: air apparent to Steph Curry or he drafting a young 575 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: Steph Curry man. You've watched him a little. I've watched him, 576 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: positive on him. Well, I was freshman year in high school. 577 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: I watched him and I said, he's got a chance 578 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: to be better than his brothers. And at the time, 579 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 1: uh Lo Angelo was a guy getting sixty points in 580 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 1: a game. But I said, when this kid grows, he's 581 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: got talent um, he's got athleticism, he has horrible game management, 582 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 1: you know, with his shots. Like I watched one of 583 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: their State playoff games. I when you gotta be kidding me. 584 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 1: My coach would pull me, like just one shot that 585 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: I attempted and he probably took ten. But I do think, 586 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: you know, he's matured, he's gotten bigger, and he's gonna 587 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: play in the NBA. I just don't know how good 588 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: he is. I think he got into bad house bits. 589 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: You know, Lonzo is a good player, He's a smart player. 590 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: Lamello just ran around and lo Angelo all he did 591 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: is just shoot. Now, he's a score. Didn't do much else. 592 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: And then we didn't get a chance to team at 593 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: play at UCLA. But that's fun last night watching Steph Curry. 594 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: You got basketball tonight with the Bucks at the Lakers, 595 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: and then the Lakers and Clippers coming up on Sunday. 596 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 1: It's a nice little weekend for Laker fans, North Carolina 597 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: and Duke that will be on Saturday.

He played preseason 653 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 1: and do you make it out with that without an injury. 654 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,919 Speaker 1: I just don't think he's gonna ask if he keeps 655 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 1: going at this rate of explosiveness. All right, well, thank you, Nick, Yeah, 656 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: I wasn't looking at that. You know, there's a health factor. 657 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,959 Speaker 1: But Luca has been banged up a little bit as well. 658 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: But you know, Zion with the knee surgery, is he 659 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: going to get bigger? And by the way, Luca is 660 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: full grown two at twenty one years of age. US 661 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: you get guys that you look back and you go, boy, 662 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: he was pretty skinny when he was twenty twenty one. 663 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 1: You're going to fill out. You know, it's rare when 664 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: you don't. Kevin Durant never did. Kevin Durant is basically 665 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: the same size or feels like same size he was 666 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: when he was at Texas, and that was the knock. 667 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: Oh is he going to be able to withstand the 668 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 1: riggers of the NBA? Why is it all these guys 669 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: that we questioned if they can withstand the riggers of 670 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: the game, like Steve Nash and Steph Curry and Trey Young, 671 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: Kevin Durant, They're all going to the Hall of Fame, 672 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: Alan Iverson, They're all Hall of famers. Oh can they 673 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:53,240 Speaker 1: withstand the riggers? Yeah, I guess they can. They sort 674 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: of withstood the riggers of the game prior to getting 675 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 1: to the NBA, So somebody guess they're kind of a 676 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: depth at how you survive. Yes, McLean and all the 677 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: big guys get hurt, like and yeah, it's the exact 678 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,720 Speaker 1: opposite of what we expect. Yeah, yeah, point it seems 679 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: to play that way in the NFL two until the 680 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 1: past few years, that the little quarterbacks, he'll never be 681 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: able to hang there in the pocket take that beating 682 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray will never be a well. He doesn't hang 683 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: in the pocket. He takes off Russell Wilson doesn't hang 684 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: in the pocket. It's the big quarterback who's usually hanging 685 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 1: in the pocket. You're a big target when you're a 686 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: big quarterback. I saw the odds Vegas. The super book 687 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: in Vegas has received a lot of interest on the 688 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,919 Speaker 1: Niners and their odds of signing Tom Brady. The reason 689 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: why I bring it up one hundred one down to 690 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: twelve to one. You know who could make this go 691 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: away very quickly, Kyle Shanahan, and Kyle Shanahan hasn't said 692 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: anything publicly. I don't think where he goes. We're not 693 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: interested in Tom. Love Tom and hope he becomes a 694 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: Niner fan when he retires. We have our quarterback and 695 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 1: it's Jimmy Garoppolo. I haven't heard that any reason why. 696 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: It's because the Niners are interested in Tom Brady. They are. 697 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: They're sorry as a reaction, no, they are, they are interested. 698 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: I had a text back and forth with somebody last 699 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,439 Speaker 1: night and I don't want to say his name, but 700 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: I will say that he is he is certainly involved 701 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: in this whole Tom Brady situation, and I said, I 702 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: think he's staying with the Patriots. And he said, and 703 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: I said, do you want to bet? And he said, 704 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: whatever you want to bet, I'll bet you that Brady leaves. 705 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: And I went, oh, all right. And that caught me 706 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: by surprise that because I thought, you know, maybe he 707 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: would hedge his bets a little bit. And he said, no, 708 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 1: he thinks Brady's gone. And I wonder, and you know, 709 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: we talked about this back and forth. I said, do 710 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: you think that it was just a courtesy call with 711 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: Belichick and Brady? And and his feeling was maybe maybe 712 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 1: that's all that was is it didn't go well, wasn't 713 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: fruitful of that was the report. But did Belichick make 714 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,760 Speaker 1: that call just to say we made that call because 715 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: it feels like some of this could end. If the 716 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: Patriots go, hey, Tom, whatever you want, we want you 717 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: to stay, whatever you think is going to be best 718 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,919 Speaker 1: for you and this team. We want to make that happen, right, 719 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 1: then there's no more drama here. If the Niners say 720 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo's our quarterback, like this is laughable. Now. Some 721 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 1: of the Niners players have been public with their support 722 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 1: with Jimmy Garoppolo. But that makes sense because if you 723 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 1: don't get Brady and you go into that locker room 724 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:48,440 Speaker 1: and you see Garoppolo, I would be going nobody had 725 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: my back here, guys, and so George Kittle. I think 726 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: there are a couple of players who have come out 727 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 1: and said some nice things about Jimmy Garoppolo. If Kyle 728 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: Shanahan says this is my guy, We're not interested in Tom, 729 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 1: then this goes away from San Francisco's perspective. You know, 730 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 1: Tennessee's in the game because Tennessee's looking at if we 731 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,319 Speaker 1: if we get Brady, but you're you know, it's a 732 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: delicate balance here because you don't want to lose out 733 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: on Brady and then you lose out on Tannehill. And 734 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 1: then and I say that losing out on Tannehill but 735 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: you know, he was a good story for them last year. 736 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: That's not who you want to build around as your quarterback. 737 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: But if he's going to be kind of the fallback 738 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 1: plan here, then I understand that. But it's this is 739 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 1: delicate when you do this for the Patriots once you 740 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: get the free agency. That's so I don't think that 741 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: the Patriots that are going to be able to bring 742 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,360 Speaker 1: back Brady. It feels like if it gets the free agency, 743 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,800 Speaker 1: then Brady's probably gone because don't they have a salary 744 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: cap hit with Brady It's like thirteen and a half 745 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 1: million dollars. Once we get there to free agency, you're 746 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 1: on the clock there to kind of see what Tom 747 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: wants to do. But he's still unofficially fielding offers. Here 748 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: good a guess, And you know, even last night, you know, 749 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: somebody says you keep ruling out the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 750 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 1: Don't do that, and I go, I just can't see 751 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 1: if he's going to play two more years. It's not 752 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: a money grab because he's gonna get paid. This is 753 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:23,319 Speaker 1: about winning another championship and doing it without Bill Belichick. 754 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: Where can you win a championship over the next two 755 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 1: years aside from New England unless he's the backup quarterback 756 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: in Kansas City with Patrick Mahomes. I don't know. The 757 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: better place maybe at San Francisco, you know, maybe, but 758 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: it feels like New England gives him the best chance. Yeah, Paul. 759 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: I heared two different reports on two different networks this 760 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 1: morning that there's a mystery team involved with Tom Brady, 761 00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: but the reporters didn't tell what the mystery team was like, 762 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: So how do you get that information? Then disseminated, I'm 763 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 1: hearing there's another team, but what you gotta get that team? Well? No, 764 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,320 Speaker 1: the agents for Tom Brady can say, you know, we 765 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,759 Speaker 1: got another team, but we don't want it out there. 766 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 1: You think that's real? Oh, I don't. I don't know. 767 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: I've been trying to figure out what's real and not. 768 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,440 Speaker 1: I go back to the Cowboys and I laughed at that. 769 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: Then the Giants came up. So we've had Fox reports here, 770 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,319 Speaker 1: but I think you're starting to there's a little more 771 00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: consistency with the Titans and the Niners. Now maybe the 772 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,319 Speaker 1: Colts are the like the Colts have the best offensive line. 773 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:30,840 Speaker 1: If you're Brady and you go down, you have a 774 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: checklist to go, okay, best weapons. Tampa can make a case. 775 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,880 Speaker 1: Started with San Francisco because you've got a tight end 776 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,280 Speaker 1: there that you really like. But then Tampa has Oj Howard. 777 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,799 Speaker 1: You know, if I'm Brady, I go, okay, what do 778 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:47,720 Speaker 1: I have to protect me? You got a great offensive line? 779 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: What kind of weapons do I have? Who is my coach? 780 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: What style do they play Do I have a playoff 781 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 1: caliber defense? There? Am I playing indoors half the games? 782 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: What's the weather going to be? Like? Where am I 783 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: going to have my family? Like? These are things that 784 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, common sense would just go. These are items 785 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:13,440 Speaker 1: that he's just gonna go check check, check. And you know, 786 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: maybe that's why you got eight teams. He's looking at them. 787 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: And although I don't think it's eight, I think it's 788 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: probably three or four the most. But you know, maybe 789 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 1: there's a mystery team that says, hey, once we're allowed 790 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,879 Speaker 1: to do this officially, we're giving you a three year deal, 791 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:33,759 Speaker 1: guaranteed deal.
