38
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 5: how much of the energy has been natural and how

39
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 5: much of it has been the you know gallon of

40
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 5: iced coffee every day in the you know, thirty two

41
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,480

50
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,760

149
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 5: in the first couple of years is you're actively trying

150
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 5: to keep something alive that doesn't want to help you.

151
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 5: It just like it doesn't want any part of it.

152
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 5: Like it's funny how you just the concept of trying

153
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 5: to the concept of the first time, like a kid

154
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 5: finds their thumb. Like I like, we all take these

155
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 5: things for granted, but it's like you've just discovered that

156
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 5: you have a thumb. Like there's so much joy in

157
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 5: the first few years that you know that the sleep

158
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 5: you can sleep. You know when when when they're all grown,

159
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 5: you know you have plenty of time to get to sleep.

160
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 5: But right now, this is such a special moment. You'll

161
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 5: remember this forever, and you know it's nice. A piece

162
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 5: of unsolicited advice that I got from my buddy that

163
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 5: he did that was really successful. He actually started a

164
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 5: private Instagram for his kid because he thought that was

165
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 5: a way for the family to keep pictures and so

166
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 5: like to this day when I talked to him, it

167
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 5: says one of the best things he did, Like it's

168
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 5: a private Instagram. It's not for anybody else, but that way,

169
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 5: like he his wife and like their very close immediate

170
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 5: family see all of the pictures all of the time,

171
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 5: and they're all somewhere where they can be accessed.

172
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 6: Sook, that's a great idea as I supposed to having

173
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 6: to send text messages and pictures to like eighteen different people.

174
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 6: That's a really that's a really efficient way to do.

175
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 3: They're cataloged.

176
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, you got a place to store them. Now,

177
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 6: that's fine, excellent.

178
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 3: I love that.

179
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: Look at that.

180
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 5: Look at that the non dad coming in with some

181
00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 5: dad advice.

182
00:07:59,000 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: Whoa, I'm Almo.

183
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 3: Are you giving me strong dude?

184
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's strong advice.

185
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 3: So what's this dot?

186
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 2: Like?

187
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 3: So what are you doing?

188
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 4: Man?

189
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 3: Like, what do you what's your diet?

190
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 5: So here's the thing, Like not that America cares about this,

191
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 5: but like, you know, I've been doing the orange theory

192
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 5: thing and like I you know, I got to a

193
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 5: spot where I'm in a really good place. But I

194
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 5: realized that like lately, my my weight was actually in

195
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 5: my body fat. We're both going up even though I

196
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 5: was doing everything the right way. So I have a

197
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 5: couple of buddies that you know, like superstar bodies, and

198
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 5: they've got a great trainer that you know, I know,

199
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 5: And so I reached out to him and he's like, ah,

200
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 5: your cortisol levels are probably high from all of the

201
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 5: like massive amount of like high speed cardio you're doing,

202
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 5: blah blah blah. So I did all this blood work

203
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 5: and like then he got all the blood work back

204
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 5: and he's like, yeah, Okay, these are all the things

205
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 5: that are out of whack. So now I have an

206
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 5: app that tells me like literally, I eat like the

207
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 5: same thing at the same times every day, and it's

208
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 5: it's wild, like it's you know, I'm not gonna say

209
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 5: that I'm eating glorious, Like it's egg whites, and then

210
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 5: this weird like cream of rice porridge before I work out,

211
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 5: in this cream of rice porridge after I work out,

212
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 5: and then like chicken, like a measured amount of chicken

213
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 5: for lunch and a measured amount of chicken for dinner

214
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 5: with like asparagus. Basically like I'm eating very like it's

215
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 5: all super clean. But the hardest part for me, and

216
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 5: this is what's wild, is like he said, you know,

217
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 5: you got to get rid of everything other than water

218
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 5: for the next probably three months, like we're gonna recalibrate

219
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 5: your body.

220
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, no worries.

221
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 5: I gave up all the water. And the funny thing

222
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 5: is at a massive headache. And everybody said caffeine headache.

223
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 5: But I've never had that before, so I well, yeah,

224
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 5: but here's the great I was like, so I have

225
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 5: this headache, and he said, well, go have an iced

226
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 5: coffee today, see if it helps.

227
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 1: It did not. I had a black iced coffee. Didn't help.

228
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: So the next day I called him.

229
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 5: I'm like, didn't help, and he said, okay, just take

230
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 5: a packet of Splendor and like just put that on

231
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 5: your tongue.

232
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: So I did, and like almost immediately, seriously, all headache

233
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: went away.

234
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 5: He's like, okay, so you're having a super los fake

235
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 5: sugar withdrawal. And that turned out to be absolutely true.

236
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 5: The caffeine, the lack of caffeine didn't bother me. But

237
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 5: I drink so much sugar free energy drinks and I

238
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 5: put like, you know, sugar free vanilla, and.

239
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: My coffee and I drink diet coke like I drink

240
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: all of that stuff.

241
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 3: Oh, you were having to withdrawal from that stuff.

242
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: Like the fake sugar, which I didn't even know.

243
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 5: That was so like the first three four days of

244
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 5: no fake sugar, like it was brutal. So I had

245
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 5: to start taking like a certain number of grams of

246
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 5: the fake sugar, just put them on my tongue at

247
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 5: different times just to stop the headache. It was the

248
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 5: wildest thing ever. But now now there's no headache and

249
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 5: I just drink water all It's boring, but you know,

250
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 5: I drink water all day.

251
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: That's what I do.

252
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's great, man, that's awesome.

253
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 2: Well God bless that listen, that piece of it is fantastic.

254
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 5: Well, he also gave me like these massive like you know, look, cousin,

255
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 5: I'm a small guy, Like I'm a little I'm kind.

256
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: Of scrawly, you know, I know that.

257
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 5: So like he took away all my cardio, and now

258
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 5: I have to go to the gym and lift heavy things,

259
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 5: which is just a much different. If I lift heavy things,

260
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 5: my arms wear out. But I still feel like I

261
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 5: have all this pent up energy because I'm used to

262
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 5: like sprinting at the end of workouts, so right, I

263
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 5: called him and I'm like, can I still go run

264
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 5: or can I do hot yogurt or something. He's like nope,

265
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 5: He's like, You're just gonna have to figure out what

266
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 5: to do with all that energy.

267
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: So that's where I am right now.

268
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 3: You know, I'm just, man, you are you just you

269
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 3: know what Figgie Oliver's like is going to be like

270
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 3: Fitzy in two years. I can only imagine. It's funny.

271
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,479
Speaker 3: I'm like the opposite.

272
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 2: So I uh so, I'm back at the gym too,

273
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 2: like I've been going. But the only thing I like

274
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 2: to do is I like to lift weights, right, So

275
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 2: it's the only thing makes me feel strong, you know,

276
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 2: I feel good, right, And the trainer's like, naw, man,

277
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 2: you gotta you gotta step up your cardio.

278
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 6: That's so funny. And I'll probably meet both of you

279
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 6: in the middle a little bit. Like I enjoy the

280
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 6: clifting weights. I hate doing cardio, but I know I

281
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 6: need to do it, so I do it a few

282
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 6: days a week. I could probably do a little bit

283
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 6: more of it here there, but probably I probably have

284
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 6: a pretty decent balance between the two.

285
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, Currently, in a few months, I'll get to add

286
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 5: the cardio back, but in a different like I'm gonna

287
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 5: have to be a little bit more measured with how

288
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 5: how hard I run and how often I run and

289
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 5: things like that, because like orange theory is so much sprints,

290
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 5: you know, and that's whole thing is like, but yeah,

291
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 5: first we have to take a couple of months and

292
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 5: recalibrate my body.

293
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: To learn how to use itself as fuel. The courts

294
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: while I do this, so we'll see, like you know.

295
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: The science behind that. Like what's great that you're doing

296
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 2: this is that it's funny. I was doing the same

297
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 2: thing just from a friend of mine does athletes and

298
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 2: football players and and so I was like, let me

299
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 2: do it for a story, right, so like it's part

300
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 2: of this piece I'm doing, and you know, it's it's

301
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: amazing the science that's available today. Like you know, when

302
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 2: we were killed, I was a kid, right, Like you

303
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: had to like they were, you know, shotting the beer

304
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 2: after a game, right, they were smoking cigarettes between you know, pitches,

305
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 2: right like between innies.

306
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 6: Leland was doing in the dug out the whole game.

307
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know they're walking out and they're walking

308
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: out you know, inside the dugout, grabbing the smoke and then.

309
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: You know, drinking it.

310
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 2: You know, you're you're drinking a beer like that was true,

311
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 2: Like they would have a beer, you know, the seventh

312
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: Inning like whatever, just to cold beer, just to like

313
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 2: it was water.

314
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 3: Like That's that's what you're talking about.

315
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 2: In the in this eighties seventies, like those those eras

316
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 2: you know Barkley used to do. He's talk about all

317
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 2: the time, like, you know, first thing afterwards they would

318
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: have if you walk back in the locker room and

319
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,000
Speaker 2: he'd see, you know, Moses having a smoke, like, you know,

320
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 2: let me think about that.

321
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 5: That's it's crazy that we've gone from that too. You know,

322
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 5: the amount of money athletes now put into having cryo

323
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 5: chambers in their houses and things. You know, it's like

324
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 5: it's everything is about an investment in your or yourself

325
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 5: because of the business part of it. And you know,

326
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 5: a friend of mine said a few years ago or

327
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 5: a few months ago, said, any year that you decide

328
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 5: you're gonna, you know, dedicate yourself to health, that's a

329
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 5: good year. And I have to remember that sometimes because

330
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 5: like the other part of it is, you know, it's

331
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,839
Speaker 5: not like it's inexpensive to do some of this stuff

332
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 5: and I'm cheap, you know. So there's a process of

333
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 5: you're like, man, do I really need all these supplements?

334
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 5: Do I really need Like I got to make my

335
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 5: own workout, drink out of all of these different things,

336
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 5: Like there's got to be a cheaper way. But then

337
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 5: you're like, h some you know, sometimes you give what

338
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 5: you pay for. And at the other side of it

339
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 5: is I'm saving money on you know, not going out

340
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 5: on a Friday night and getting vodka, soda and cheese fries.

341
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: So you know, like that's just the flip side of it.

342
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 5: And you know, for me, I, like I said, one

343
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 5: of my buddies particularly went from no offensive he's listening

344
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 5: a little pudgy to suddenly like yoked in a matter

345
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 5: of four months just by living, like doing exactly what

346
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 5: he was told when he was told.

347
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: So I've seen the results.

348
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 5: I'm like, uh, yeah, you know, I don't know my

349
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 5: football season, I kind of want to have like two apps,

350
00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 5: Like I don't need a full rack of apps yet,

351
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 5: like just I want one app to introduce another ab

352
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 5: into the neighborhood. And then I figure like they're all

353
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 5: like at that point want to move in so like,

354
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 5: if I could just get two abs by football season,

355
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 5: I'll feel like it was weird.

356
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: Dude.

357
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 3: No, listen, I think it's great for you man, good

358
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 3: God blessed.

359
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 6: And you definitely can do it. We are long ways

360
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 6: away from football season, as Anthony knows, and I'm sure

361
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 6: it was dreading so oh my god, plenty of time here.

362
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 2: All week long, like it was a great tease, Like

363
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 2: I love the schedule.

364
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 6: Oh, I'm sure you do.

Speaker 3: You know that. I mean, yeah, dude, it's coming to Fruition.

366
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 2: Everything we talked about all those years, the gar Gato

367
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 2: plants coming to Fruition.

368
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 6: Yes, an NFL game every single night of the week.

369
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: It is.

370
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 2: It's the greatest thick in the world. Christmas Day on

371
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: a Wednesday. You remember us talking about this, like what

372
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 2: what are they going to do, like if they do.

373
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 3: Christmas this year?

374
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 2: Like they're just putting it down like there's no It's Wednesday,

375
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: the only day of the week that football, like you

376
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 2: think couldn't be played, and they gotta figure it out

377
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 2: a way.

378
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 6: I mean, they literally took their giant foot and just

379
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 6: stamped it on the neck of the NBA is what

380
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 6: they did, more so than they have in the past

381
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 6: couple of years on Wednesday.

382
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 5: Man, this is the debate they keep having with people,

383
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 5: like when they're like, oh, it's too much, or the

384
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 5: the NFL doesn't need to do anything until we stop

385
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 5: watching the NFL should just keep doing all of this

386
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 5: over and over and over again, because at the end

387
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 5: of the day, like, you know what I'm gonna watch

388
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 5: on Christmas Day, I'm gonna watch the NFL games, right, Like,

389
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 5: I think a lot of people are getting there, especially

390
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 5: in a world where we have devalued the NBA to

391
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 5: it doesn't matter unless you win a championship.

392
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: If that's the way you're always gonna.

393
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 5: Cover everything with the NBA, then at some point, what

394
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 5: you're really telling people is that the regular season doesn't matter.

395
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: So why does a Christmas.

396
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 5: Day game resonate to anybody other than the tradition of

397
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 5: it's the start of the NBA season, And frankly, at

398
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 5: this point, I think the playoffs so the start of

399
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 5: the NBA season for most fans. So like, look, you

400
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 5: got a choice between a meaningful NFL game or an

401
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 5: NBA game that will be forgettable by the time you

402
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 5: actually get to meaningful basketball, like the NFL is gonna win. Heck,

403
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 5: the NFL didn't even get out of the way of

404
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 5: the College Football Playoff, the first expanded college football playoffs,

405
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 5: and the NFL said yes on that Saturday, we would

406
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 5: also like to play games.

407
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 1: They don't care about anybody else because they don't have to.

408
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 3: No.

409
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 2: Now, well, when the top ninety whatever it was, ninety

410
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 2: one of the top one hundred television programs are NFL games. Yeah,

411
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 2: and the rest are college football. Wherever it was one,

412
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 2: there's one soccer and the rest college football. I mean,

413
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,199
Speaker 2: it's it's uncanny, Like the numbers are ridiculous, right, the

414
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 2: ratings are ridiculous. It's sensatiable what we love about football.

415
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 2: We we got to get started. We got lots to do.

416

Speaker 2: Fitsy since two weeks?

419
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,200

420
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 5: weeks because I've been out two weeks. So this is

421

Speaker 2: talked about chaos and it was definitely chaos.

467
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 3: I mean, god, it was horrible what happened.

468
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 2: Pedestrian loses their life and it's just an awful situation.

469
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 2: So there's this backup, got to get into the course

470
00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, he there's a complete misunderstanding. It's

471
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 2: it's raining out, there's jackets. You know, he doesn't know

472
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 2: if it's a cop, security guard. He's just trying to

473
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 2: get around traffic to get to play. And then you know,

474
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 2: all hell breaks loose. Cop attaches himself to the car

475
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: and it's just like mayhem and everything's escalated, and there's

476
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 2: Scottie Scheffler, you know, going off to college.

477
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:27,719
Speaker 3: How about that FITZI.

478
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 5: I mean, this is the first and foremost the tragedy

479
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 5: is the most important thing that's happened here. But then

480
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 5: the next portion of it is in that moment we

481
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 5: have to remember that everybody's sort of elevated, right like

482
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 5: stress is elevated for the people involved. There's sort of

483
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 5: this moment too where I know I've heard several people say, well,

484
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 5: how could the cop not know who he is because

485
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 5: he's in a PGA vehicle and he's the number one

486
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,479
Speaker 5: golfer in the world. And to that, the only thing

487
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 5: I would say is I remember so distinctly.

488
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,719
Speaker 1: One of my first road gigs. I was playing for

489
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: a guy named.

490
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 5: Phil Vasser at the time, and Phil never wore his

491
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 5: like he never wore you know, pass backstage because his

492
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 5: name was on the arena, you know, his name was

493
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 5: up in lights and his face was on the truck

494
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 5: and we would go into different arenas and he would

495
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 5: get stopped. And at the time, I thought, well, that's

496
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 5: just because Phil's, you know, maybe not the biggest name

497
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 5: as we got, you know, with the Vamperium, we were

498
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 5: touring on huge sewers. There were times that we'd be

499
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 5: out with like Blake Shelton, and Blake could be walking

500
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 5: backstage and security would stop him and say, you know,

501
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 5: where's your pass? Like, the people that are working don't

502
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 5: necessarily it doesn't mean they're country music fans, doesn't mean

503
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 5: they know anything.

504
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: They're just working that event.

505
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 5: So we have to remember sometimes that in that moment,

506
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 5: the officer working is working at crime scene, like he's

507
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 5: trying to help this whole process. He may not have

508
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 5: any idea who Scottie Scheffler is, may have never heard

509
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 5: the name.

510
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: So I think sometimes.

511
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 5: Sports fans need to remember that not everybody is the

512
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 5: same level of sports fan, and then not everybody's the

513
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 5: same level of golf fin And just because somebody's around

514
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 5: an event doesn't even know they would know it doesn't

515
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 5: even mean they would know who you is, right, So

516
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 5: this just feels like the ultimate misunderstanding. But it's embarrassing

517
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 5: for everybody involved. Like I am a little surprised the

518
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 5: city at some point, you know, I feel like that's

519
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 5: where you call the mayor in the middle of the

520
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 5: night and say, hey, we've got an issue, and somebody's

521
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 5: trying to get it fixed, and it's just it seems

522
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 5: like the misunderstanding should have been figured out a better way.

523
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 5: But you know, at the end of the day, didn't

524
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 5: impact the Scheffler's performance, It didn't impact much.

525
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: It's just created a wild story that was.

526
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 3: It was interesting too to see.

527
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 2: And again we preface the whole discussion with the tragedy

528
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,399
Speaker 2: that happened, right, so you know, and you're right, fits

529
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 2: like when you know something like that happens, there is

530
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 2: it's it is it's heightened emotion and you know, things

531
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 2: come to play. But it always it's always a reminder

532
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 2: about you know, keeping your head right and keeping cool

533
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 2: and how just vital.

534
00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,080
Speaker 3: It is, you know, to avoid any kind of chaos.

535
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:06,479
Speaker 2: But yeah, like you know the way ESPN covered Did

536
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 2: you see some of the coverage from ESPN.

537
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, Jeff Darlington did a great job by

538
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,439
Speaker 5: the way of Captain video in the moment and being able.

539
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 3: To break it. He was behind him.

540
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 6: It was wild, like you know, crazy, it's like wait

541
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 6: seconds kind of Scheffler's being arrested like.

542
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 5: It was.

543
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 6: You know, it's the last.

544
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 2: Thing you expect to hear on a Friday morning, you

545
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, figure.

546
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 6: One thousand percent. I thought it was a gag headline

547
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 6: when I first saw it, to be honest with you.

548
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 6: But the fact that the guy is trying to get

549
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 6: to the golf course to you know, get his workout

550
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 6: in and something like this sens what's happening. And like

551
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 6: you said, it's just a it's a misunderstanding. Although I

552
00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 6: will say how you can misinterpret someone telling you to

553
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 6: stop versus someone telling you no go drive in this way,

554
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 6: it's a little bit different, difficult to decipher. And it's

555
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 6: easy for me to say this from you know, five

556
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 6: thousand miles away. I'm not one hundred percent sure of

557
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 6: what it looked like. But usually if there's a blockade

558
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 6: in front of you and there really clearly is no

559
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 6: way to go when people are holding up sign, generally speaking,

560
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,399
Speaker 6: that's a sign for you to not pull to the

561
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,119
Speaker 6: side of the media and start driving ahead.

562
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: No, one hundred percent.

563
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 5: But I've also like, so I remember one year when

564
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 5: I was out with Game Day at the time that

565
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 5: we were trying to get into I think it was

566
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 5: in Nebraska or one of those like where the line

567
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 5: is just atrocious, and as you start pulling up and

568
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 5: everybody's telling you you can't go here. You know, in

569
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 5: that situation, you're like, no, no, no, we know exactly

570
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 5: where we can go. We know exactly how we can

571
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 5: go there. I've seen the people driving those cars before

572
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 5: and been in those cars before, where like all of

573
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 5: a sudden you're pulling over and you're like, no, no, no, no,

574
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 5: this is where like I know you're telling me I

575
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 5: can't go here, I can't go here.

576
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 1: Here's where we are. You just don't realize that we

577
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: need to get right there. We're gonna do that. Like so,

578
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: there is sort of an innocent way of just presuming

579
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: that like all of this chaos if you don't know

580
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: that there's a wreck that's happened and there's a fatality,

581
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: or you don't understand that that wreck also impacts you

582
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: because you are the number one golf golfer in the world.

583
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 5: Like I do think that there's a human moment again,

584
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 5: just from times that I've been in those cars where

585
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 5: you're like, no, this is just a security guard that's

586
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 5: telling me he can't go there because he doesn't realize

587
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,120
Speaker 5: that I'm actually one of the golfers.

588
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, and that's a that's a phenomenal point. You're one

589
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,679
Speaker 6: hundred percent right, And I guess I wish there was

590
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 6: video of the situation with him and the police officer,

591
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 6: because at what point does a police officer make contact

592
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 6: with his vehicle and Scotty continues to drive.

593
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, No, you're right about that, one hundred That is

594
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 5: a great point like that, that is a level of Yeah,

595
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 5: once the officers attached himself to the vehicle, maybe that's

596
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 5: the time where you just stopped like there is.

597
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 2: Like, dude, you would yards right, I mean that's he

598
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 2: went the first down mar exactly.

599
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 5: You know that's cool, bro, Now that is that is

600
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 5: very true. Now he's being a belligerent you know what,

601
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 5: Like there is no doubt about that.

602
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 6: And whether that's a cop a cop or you think

603
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 6: it's a branded cop security matter whoever, Yeah, it doesn't

604
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 6: matter at that point what you think they are. This

605
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 6: is a person who's there to have some sort of

606
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 6: order and whatever authority that they're in, and you are

607
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 6: out outwardly and blatantly disrespecting it at that point. Yeah, well, yeah,

608
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 6: you're right about that.

609
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 2: You can't get drag the guys on the vehicle. You

610
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 2: gotta stop just you know, come on, bro, that's the

611
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 2: only thing wild though. And then he went out and

612
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 2: you and your right fits. He went out and shot

613
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 2: a hello around.

614
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 6: I'm talking about mental toughness to a certain guy's faces,

615
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 6: felling the charges and just goes out like nothing happened.

616
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 6: Is like, yep, got off to a slow start on Thursday,

617
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 6: coming right back on Friday, put myself back in the

618
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 6: mix to try to win another major this year.

619
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, now at some point, this is where, like you mentioned,

620
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 2: felling charges, this is where you gotta go all right, well,

621
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 2: this is just like what are we doing here? Like

622
00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 2: we understand the situation. Everybody's heightened the motion whole thing.

623
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,719
Speaker 2: He doesn't understand the situation. You know, that's where you

624
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 2: just gotta go all right, Well, let's not just become

625
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 2: a kangaroo court.

626
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

627
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,719
Speaker 6: Well, there's two things, because one thing I'll say is

628
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,480
Speaker 6: money talks. There's number one. When it comes to these

629
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 6: sorts of things, we know these things will typically go

630
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 6: for people of this sort and status, but also police

631
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 6: officers in situations like this, and the fraternity and the

632
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 6: legal system take these sorts of situations extremely seriously regardless

633
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 6: of who the perpetrator is. So when you if it

634
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 6: was another random citizen, it will still be bad. But

635
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 6: the fact that it was an actual police officer, I

636
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,439
Speaker 6: don't know if he might get off as easy as

637
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 6: some people will suspect that he might be because he's

638
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 6: Scotty Scheffler, the face of the PGA tour.

639
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 3: Yeah.

640
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 2: Now again, just the circumstances, like sometimes in life you

641
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 2: had these circumstances like where you know, there's misunderstandings and

642
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 2: that's where the calmness and that's where like, I don't

643
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 2: care if it's Scotty Scheffler or Scotty nobody. You gotta

644
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 2: everybody's gotta go okay. Well, you know, this is what happened.

645
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 2: It just got out of hand. We're not talking about

646
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 2: you know, some you know arch criminal, right, like, you know,

647
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: let's let's just be smart about this stuff. Like I

648
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: don't I'm serious, I don't care if it's Scott Scheffler

649
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 2: or again, you know Scott, nobody doesn't matter. It's we

650
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 2: all understand the circumstances. We've all been in there.

651
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the fine line on all of this is, well,

652
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 5: there really isn't a fine line, like once you go

653
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 5: too far and an officer is involved, like there should

654
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 5: be and there is going to be, I would think some.

655
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: Level would hell to pay, right, like there has to be.

656
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 5: At some point, you know, there's just there is some

657
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 5: I know that it's just I think he termed it

658
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 5: like an unfortunate miscommunication. But you are right that once

659
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 5: you've you know, once you're dragging a cop like unfortunate

660
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 5: miscommunication is much tougher to sell to everybody in that process.

661
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 5: And look, the world is full of people that wake

662
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 5: up and unfortunate circumstances change their life.

663
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 1: So I'm not saying that that's going to be there,

664
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: but we.

665
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 2: Should also kind of understand that right, like, yeah, we'll

666
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 2: understand the piece of it, that piece of the puzzle,

667
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 2: like the you know, I'm sure if if it was

668
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 2: a normal day and the cop is wearing the uniform,

669
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 2: he's not, you know, Scottie Scheffer's not dragging him. Now,

670
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 2: you shouldn't Figgy's point, You're right, Like you shouldn't do

671
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: that to you know, security guard, you know, grav a

672
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: security guard, Paul Blart, Like I get it.

673
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: Yes, I always love that.

674
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 5: Like there'd be times you're standing on stage and you're

675
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 5: looking out of the crowd and you look over at

676
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 5: the security guard that is like not in any sort

677
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 5: of condition to help anybody and disinterested, and the whole time,

678
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 5: I'm thinking that guy's getting paid to save my life today.

679
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 2: You know.

680
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 5: It's just I don't know, man, Like some there are

681
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 5: definitely some security guards you're like, okay, Like I get,

682
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 5: I get equal, Like I get you got your your job,

683
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 5: But like, I don't know that I really feel safer

684
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 5: with you know, Paul Blart out there than I would

685
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 5: with it.

686
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 6: Yeah. Do you ever have like a lean nies and

687
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 6: type like you know, yeah.

688
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 5: Oh, we we had one on the road with us

689
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 5: for a while, Like ahead of security on the road

690
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 5: with for a long time that like we come in

691
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 5: and then you'd see his frustration because he was one

692
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 5: of those people with a very special shows of skills.

693
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 5: And then all of a sudden he do the meeting

694
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 5: with the security team and he's like, yeah, where you

695
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 5: know what tonight? You know it's just you look around

696
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 5: and it's like, yeah, that guy over there is more

697
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 5: interested in the hot dog.

698
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: And that's not even an exaggeration.

699
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 5: I've been on stage looking over and I'll see the

700
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 5: security guard that's like, you know, four hundred and fifty

701
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 5: pounds of half awake sitting there just mouthful of hot dog,

702
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 5: like not paying attention to the show at all. And

703
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 5: I'm thinking, like what happens if somebody charges the stage

704
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 5: right now? Is big boy gonna like like take the

705
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 5: last bite of that dog? Or like what like it's

706
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 5: the rent a coup thing?

707
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 3: Is your ass? Or the hot dog? He's going hot dog?

708
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's going hot dog. All he's looking up and

709
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: he's pointing. He's at Morbal, that's all he saying. He's

710
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: just in a old are Like that's sound all right,

711
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: he can fit for himself.

712
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's right.

713
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 2: He's doing a hard theory and he's got all he's

714
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 2: got a couple of abs going.

715
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm lifting. Now, I'll be able to out, be able

716
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: to defend everybody. Let's go.

717
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 6: I will say it's probably a pretty tough gig. Like

718
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 6: you can have a be in a position like that

719
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 6: and have no action for like seven straight months and

720
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 6: then all of a sudden, on a random Tuesday night,

721
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 6: all hell breaks loose.

722
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,360
Speaker 2: Well, you gotta be like Robert orri Man. You gotta

723
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 2: be like Big Shop Bob. You to be ready for

724
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: the moment.

725

Speaker 6: My gy, I love it, sit on the bench, you know,

726
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 6: for sixty eight games of the season, you come in

727
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 6: in the playoff, you know, ice cold, and just drain them.

728
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: Now.

729
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 5: All I can imagine is the hiring process for like

730
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 5: a random security guard and they sit across from cousin

731
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 5: and the person wants the job, and he just looks

732
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 5: up and Cousin says, I got.

733
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: One question for you. Are you ready for the moment?

734
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: And just just judge the reaction.

735
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 5: And I like, if he doesn't give you the fire

736
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 5: of the gods and you're like, Nope, you're not hired.

737
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: You're not ready for the moment.

738
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 3: Now you're out.

739
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 2: I need a guy that can sit there, eat your

740
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 2: hot dogs, do whatever you want. But when the moment comes,

741
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 2: when that crazed fan is jumping on stage to attack, Jason.

770
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 2: game one, and then it's been blowout every other game.

774
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 5: gonna lay down, and like, look at how happy they

775
00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 5: were after they won in Indiana last time.

776
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 1: It shows they don't have killer instinct.

777
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 5: Like those sorts of takes I think are so stupid

778
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 5: half the time, like the Pacers are. Obviously, this whole

779
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 5: series has been sort of flipped on its head. I

780
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 5: was not surprised they won that game in Indiana. I

781
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 5: was surprised they won it so convincingly. But let's say this,

782
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 5: like I found myself. I was sitting there in the

783
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 5: second corner and I said to my buddy, I was like, man,

784
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 5: this is gonna go right down to the wire. It

785
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,240
Speaker 5: did not right, Like this thing was close for a while.

786
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 5: It's just the Pacers before the end of the first

787
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 5: half were able to just really blow it open, and

788
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 5: once they did, there was no answer for it. The

789
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 5: hardest part about this is I can't get a feel

790
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 5: for the why. You know, Like it's easy to say, Okay,

791
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 5: Game seven is gonna go to the Knicks because it's

792
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 5: at the.

793
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: Garden, and that makes a lot of sense.

794
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 5: I think that probably is the smart logic, but like

795
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 5: the why of it, Like why why were the Knicks

796
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 5: just absolutely not capable of getting an offensive rebound when

797
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 5: they needed it? And in that game, like I thought,

798
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 5: it was pretty stunning how in control Indiana was for

799
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 5: about twenty minutes and then they were able to coast

800
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 5: from there. It was a really dominant performance. That reminds

801
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 5: us all we need to stop with the wild hyperbole

802
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 5: after every one of these games, because this series.

803
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 3: Is I know, now I'm guilty.

804
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 2: I'll raised my hand because like Sundays shaped up to

805
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 2: be pretty awesome tomorrow because you all have two game

806
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 2: sevens and then the other Game seven Minnesota Denver. I

807
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 2: raised my hand. I thought after Minnesota took the first

808
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,280
Speaker 2: two in Denver, I thought it was over. I thought

809
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: that they had the formula to beat the Nuggets, not

810
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 2: to push them to a game seven in Denver. But

811
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 2: you know the way they won games one and two

812
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 2: where they completely just dominated them defensively, and Jamal Murray

813
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 2: was just not himself, and you saw how important Jamal

814
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 2: Murray is, right and the three games did Nuggets win.

815
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 2: He has really strong games, and the games they lose,

816
00:36:58,640 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 2: he's hard.

817
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 5: I think the most surprising part, because you're right, I mean,

818
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 5: after two games, a lot of stories were, man, finally

819
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 5: somebody has figured out the Nuggets.

820
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: Then the Nuggets figured it out right.

821
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 5: But the most surprising part to me is that the

822
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 5: Nuggets didn't close it out last. Yame like to get

823
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 5: your butt kicked when you were defending champion like that,

824
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 5: when you're a team that has the experience that they have,

825
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 5: Like I really thought, you know, that was their moment

826
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 5: to just put an end of the series. And for

827
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 5: Minnesota to come back and fight back that hard, it

828
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 5: just deserves a lot of credit. The Timberwolves have been

829
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 5: great all year and I love that, like, and I know.

830
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,439
Speaker 3: I'm actually rudy for that team. I love that team.

831
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 3: I want.

832
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 2: I love Anthy Edwards, my new favorite player in the league.

833
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I love watching him play. Man, I just

834
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:48,399
Speaker 2: love the kid. I'd like to make up a team, right,

835
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 2: So I do I like And I was never a

836
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,800
Speaker 2: big cat guy. I was ever a big Karl Anthony

837
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 2: towns man. But I tell you I love that. I

838
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 2: love the squad. I just I do you know NAS

839
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 2: read the whole thing, their bench, which is active. But

840
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:10,160
Speaker 2: you know, I mean the champs Championship, It's gonna be fun. Man,

841
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 2: it's Game seven and that Champs came back.

842
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,359
Speaker 5: I think the NBA would would I think it's better

843
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 5: for the NBA if the Timberwolves beat the Nuggets. I

844
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 5: understand the Nuggets are defending champ and I understand that

845
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 5: they've got the best player in the world. But like

846
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,919
Speaker 5: the proofs of the putting on that like, I hate

847
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 5: to be the bearer of bad news. Nobody cares. Nobody

848
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 5: cares about the Nuggets. But the Timberwolves have sort of,

849
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 5: you know, taken over this love affair with with Anthony Edwards.

850
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 5: Rightfully so, And how do you become a superstar in

851
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 5: this league? You become a superstar by transcending in the playoffs. Right,

852
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 5: so taking down the defending champions, taking down Jokic would

853
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 5: be the next step in Anthony Edwards ascension. All of

854
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,280
Speaker 5: that just feels like the right, that's the perfect story

855
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 5: for the NBA, and it gives them a chance to

856
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 5: have somebody that, you know, maybe a team that people

857
00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,720
Speaker 5: are a little more interested in like that the general

858
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 5: the general public does not care about the Nuggets.

859
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 3: We just have to know why.

860
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 2: I have a theory. My theory is everybody hates the

861
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:13,359
Speaker 2: big man. People hate the big man. They just do

862
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 2: not like the big man in general. And then you

863
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:21,919
Speaker 2: got Yo Kic, who is you know, like Drago right

864
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:27,400
Speaker 2: who He's Larry Bird, bigger, He's a bigger Larry Bird,

865
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 2: the whole thing. But I just don't think people like

866
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 2: the big dude in general. Like there's you know, I

867
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 2: talked to Joe about Joel and b with this, like

868
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 2: there's not a lot of like they don't get love

869
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 2: big guys.

870
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,879
Speaker 5: No, people love like you know, electrifying. Oh my god,

871
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,320
Speaker 5: I can't believe he made that jumper.

872
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 1: Sort of moments. People love, you know, a lot of movement.

873
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 5: People love fast paced basketball, Like all of these things.

874
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 5: I think you're right, Like the concept of the big

875
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,280
Speaker 5: man is just it's fine.

876
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: Like, but I just the.

877
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 5: Number of times you hear people say, well, you know,

878
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 5: he's huge, he should be able to do that. Like,

879
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 5: I think we're under selling how great Jokic is in

880
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 5: some of that conversation.

881
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, I agree with you.

882
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 6: Actually, fig we think, oh with you one thousand percent.

883
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,439
Speaker 6: It's not the most esthetically pleasing to see a big guy,

884
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 6: and especially someone like Jokic, like olimbat I can appreciate more.

885
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 6: He has some handles, he has a little bit of

886
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 6: skill set to him. And not saying that Yokic isn't skilled,

887
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 6: but it's just kind of a lumbering look. And you

888
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 6: look up at the stat sheet and he has thirty

889
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 6: fifteen and fifteen, and you're like, how the hell did

890
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:30,760
Speaker 6: that happen?

903
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,280
Speaker 2: Yesterday was a wild day with the Scheffler thing. PGA

904
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 2: Championship is underway. We're talking about the game sevens in

905
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 2: the NBA. We have a game six today Oka se Dallas,

906
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 2: which is a great series. We'll get to talking about

907
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,799
Speaker 2: that a little bit. The NBA playoffs have been I

908
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 2: find very interesting. I'm in it every night, but yeah,

909
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 2: you know it's funny. I was listening to the fig

910
00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 2: talk about baseball yesterday. How about what happened earlier in

911
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 2: the day at Wrigley Paul Steines, the number one prospect

912
00:41:55,840 --> 00:42:00,279
Speaker 2: of all right, makes his second start. He started last Saturday,

913
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 2: and he was electrified, unbelievable. Right, seven innings, no hits,

914
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 2: eleven strikeouts. He was at one hundred pitches and you

915
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 2: know the way it is today they take him out

916
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,879
Speaker 2: where the no hitter he was unhittable. It comes live.

917
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 2: It's pretty good too.

918
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he's look, he's look, he's young, as young

919
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 6: as it gets, making his second start. Let him out there?

920
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 6: Why not let him go? I know he's throwing one

921
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 6: hundred and fifteen miles an hour, but he's at all

922
00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:37,359
Speaker 6: the adrenaline behind him. You mentioned playing on the big

923
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 6: stage against the Cubs at Wrigley. How do you not

924
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 6: let him go at that point?

925
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 3: Dude?

926
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 6: I agree.

927
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 3: I was having this debate right and people.

928
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 2: Were no, no, no arm, arm, you got to protect

929
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 2: the arm.

930
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 3: I'm like, you know what, just pitch.

931
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 6: Skip a start if you want to have him going

932
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 6: six days rest or something. Yeah, no, but let him

933
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 6: go out there. I just don't. I Look, part of

934
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,439
Speaker 6: me understands it. I get it. There's more torque than ever.

935
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 6: These guys are throwing harder than ever injuries, there's more

936
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 6: of honestly, like a more you know, win than if

937
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,359
Speaker 6: for the majority of these guys because of our heart

938
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,239
Speaker 6: they're throwing. I understand that. But we have a chance

939
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:19,720
Speaker 6: to chase history, especially at this point in his career

940
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 6: as early as it gets.

941
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, go let him go. Like is it going to say?

942
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 2: Like again, I don't know, and you know, but I'll

943
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 2: use Doc Gooden as an example, Dwight Gooden at eighteen

944
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 2: is nineteen eighty four, nineteen years old. Comes up on

945
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 2: September fourth. He threw against the Cubs. He threw a

946
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 2: one hitter. He struck out eleven, he walked four.

947
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,720
Speaker 3: He threw one hundred and forty two pitches. Wow. Complete game.

948
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:54,239
Speaker 1: Now.

949
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 6: Look, I'm not saying that we should let the kid

950
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,480
Speaker 6: go out and throw one hundred and fifty pitches, But

951
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,720
Speaker 6: the idea that one hundred is like the magic number

952
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 6: and it just sounds like a nice round number that

953
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:04,760
Speaker 6: somebody just kind of made up at a certain point.

954
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 6: Maybe it is, maybe it doesn't. Maybe there's deeper science

955
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,359
Speaker 6: into it that I'm not sure about. But the guy

956
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 6: throwing a no hitter through six with one hundred pitches,

957
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:13,880
Speaker 6: let him go out there and see if he can

958
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 6: throw fifteen to twenty more and see what happens. Right,

959
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 6: what's the harm in that?

960
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 5: I am lazy and the pitch count thing is just

961
00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 5: always going to be something that bothers me because there

962
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 5: is no as much as I love analytics and sports,

963
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 5: how do we know one hundred pitches to you is

964
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 5: different than one hundred pitches to me? What's that really

965
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:36,239
Speaker 5: based on situationally, like how does the weather impact that,

966
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,320
Speaker 5: how does whatever, how much somebody's sweating one day impact Like,

967
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 5: there's so many variables.

968
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: Just to come in and say, well, you've hit one hundred,

969
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: got to pull them. That bothers me so much.

970
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:52,399
Speaker 2: It does, And you're right, one hundred pitches to you

971
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 2: is different than one hundred pitches with me. And I

972
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 2: guess they're thinking, well, all right, he's have one hundred pitches,

973
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:04,279
Speaker 2: he's through six, he goes and throws another hitler's sinning.

974
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 2: Now he's at the seventh, right, like, so then we

975
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:13,040
Speaker 2: almost have to leave him in if if he's another

976
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 2: any closer to a no hitter. It's almost like they

977
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 2: were like, let's get him out and pray for the hit.

978
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 6: Right, It's almost like, well, we have a justifiable reason

979
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,359
Speaker 6: to take him out. Now he's at one hundred, he's

980
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,799
Speaker 6: hit the magic number. If we let him go into

981
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 6: the seventh and you know, he pitches eight more and

982
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 6: it's at one hundred and eight, and now all of

983
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 6: a sudden, there's another inning under his belt that the

984
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 6: questions are going to be, well, you let him pitch

985
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 6: one hundred and eight hundred and nine. Why not let

986
00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 6: him go in there, go further if you let him

987
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 6: cross the one hundred pitch threshold. So maybe there was

988
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:42,799
Speaker 6: an element of them protecting themselves there.

989
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 5: I don't know, But where's the line between like a

990
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 5: like in general, where's the line between a special moment

991
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:50,919
Speaker 5: and a special day?

992
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 1: Yes, and the concept of longevity pature.

993
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 5: It's like, there's so few special moments and special days

994
00:45:57,120 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 5: in May and baseball that will resonate, right you can

995
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,920
Speaker 5: have one if you if you decide that you want

996
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 5: to put all other things aside. Like that's the hard

997
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 5: The hardest part for me about where baseball is when

998
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 5: it comes to this issue right now, is that everything's about, well,

999
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 5: we got to protect, protect, protect. It's like, okay, well,

1000
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 5: by protecting, you are giving more longevity, and that's that.

1001
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 5: I'm sure that's on the top of everybody's mind. But

1002
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 5: at the end of the day, you are also telling

1003
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 5: everybody that's watching right now, yeah, we're not gonna let

1004
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 5: this special moment happen right now, We're gonna go ahead

1005
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 5: and save that. So I don't know, Like, I just

1006
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 5: I hate that that moment, that feel that.

1007
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 2: Fib dude, it's a great point you bring out it

1008
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 2: really is because I don't want to be you know,

1009
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 2: flippant about this, but you know, you mean, pictures have

1010
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 2: on problems, right, so at some point they're either going

1011
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 2: to be healthy and get through it or they're going.

1012
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 3: To you know, they're going to go out early.

1013
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, and when you're throwing one hundred and three like

1014
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,720
Speaker 6: he is, Like again, I don't want to be negative,

1015
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,320
Speaker 6: and I hope, against hope this doesn't happen. The odds

1016
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 6: are working against him that at some point in time

1017
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 6: he's gonna have some sort of major elbow injury. Yeah,

1018
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 6: that's just what they say that.

1019
00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 2: It's all about the fluidity of your delivery, right too,

1020
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 2: Like in some delivery he's not really jerk her jerky,

1021
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 2: So that's the good thing.

1022
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 6: I think it's also about your delivery relative to your

1023
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,479
Speaker 6: body type as well, you know, because a lot of guys,

1024
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,080
Speaker 6: a lot of smaller guys you know, who throw hard

1025
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,720
Speaker 6: usually are the ones with who played the biggest victim

1026
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,319
Speaker 6: to this. You know, I'll see a guy up close like, yeah,

1027
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 6: Tim Winsigam was one walker Bueller is when we're experiencing

1028
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 6: now in Los Angeles. Not a big guy, but was

1029
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 6: routinely throwing ninety nine one hundred, you know, and and

1030
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 6: he's dealing with his second Tommy John. Now, you know,

1031
00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:41,959
Speaker 6: these sort of things happen. And then you have big guys.

1032
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 6: Remember Levon Hernandez back in the day. Yeah, it was

1033
00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,880
Speaker 6: never a flamethrower, but was a big guy. Had a

1034
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 6: lot of you know, meat behind what he did. He

1035
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 6: throw one hundred and five, throw one hundred and ten,

1036
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,919
Speaker 6: come back five days later, throw the hundred. He wasn't

1037
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,839
Speaker 6: throwing at full intensity, but he also had a lot

1038
00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 6: of bulk behind him. He had a lot of power

1039
00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 6: in his entire body. Yeah. You just say, a lot

1040
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 6: of thin guys who are throwing a hundred, you know,

1041
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,400
Speaker 6: one hundred miles an hour. There's just a lot of

1042
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 6: wear and tear on the body, even regardless of your delivery.

1043
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:09,840
Speaker 6: It could just be a lot the human body is

1044
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 6: not meant to do that.

1045
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know it's just weird, right, Like just

1046
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 2: go through time like I gave you this. Dwight Gooden, Yeah, no, No,

1047
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:22,359
Speaker 2: Dwight Gooden had a great career, you know. I mean,

1048
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 2: obviously he had the drug problem and you know, in

1049
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 2: the middle of it and all, but you know, he

1050
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,239
Speaker 2: he what, he came back, He threw a no hitter

1051
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 2: right at whoever it was in his thirties. I covered

1052
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 2: the game like it was, you know, an incredible moment,

1053
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 2: like you see pictures like Clemens. You know you saw

1054
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,800
Speaker 2: deep Clemens one. You want to talk about the HGH

1055
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 2: or whatever. That's not protecting your attendance, you know, I

1056
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 2: mean he was. I mean he's there, you know, to

1057
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 2: throw a gas at at it, you know, forty years old.

1058
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 2: I mean certain guys have it, and certain guy when

1059
00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 2: it goes, it just goes. That's kind of how I

1060
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 2: look at it. And to Fitzi's point, which I think

1061
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:07,959
Speaker 2: is brilliant, you're robbing people of the moment which hurts

1062
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:08,480
Speaker 2: the game.

1063
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 3: Like let's forget pitch count.

1064
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 2: Let's just say the kid goes until he goes right

1065
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 2: until he gives up a hit. If he goes yesterday

1066
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 2: and strikes out sixteen and throws a no hitter, like

1067
00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 2: that is like baseball overtake Scottie Scheffler.

1068
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:35,319
Speaker 5: In that story, there's also the moment of like imagine

1069
00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 5: and look, I know a lot of people don't care,

1070
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 5: but imagine you go with your kid, you're in the park.

1071
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 5: You're watching this, You got this moment, and now you

1072
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,880
Speaker 5: got to explain to the kid why, all of a sudden,

1073
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:48,080
Speaker 5: this great pitcher is being pulled out in this moment

1074
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 5: simply because well, they need to save him for later

1075
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 5: in his career. It's like, okay, well this might be

1076
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 5: the one day that you're ever at the park with

1077
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:57,640
Speaker 5: your kid. Like, I just I can't imagine the same.

1078
00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 5: And I know it's a different sport too, but like,

1079
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,800
Speaker 5: imagine if if we just decided there was an arbitrary

1080
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 5: count on how many passes could be attempted in a game,

1081
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 5: and all of a sudden, well, because we don't want

1082
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,400
Speaker 5: my homes to throw more than this many passes this season.

1083
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,439
Speaker 5: I'm sorry, kids, he's gonna he's gonna leave the third

1084
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 5: quarter of this one.

1085
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: Like it's just it just feels weird.

1086
00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,919
Speaker 5: It just all of it to me feels like there

1087
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 5: is some element to your point, But you back analogy's real, man,

1088
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 5: And the thing of it is, you're right. Injuries are

1089
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 5: gonna happen with arms on pitchers, but also not for nothing.

1090
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 5: The procedures to fix their arms are better than ever.

1091
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,160
Speaker 5: Like we see guys come back more than ever, so

1092
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 5: there is some element of like, Okay, if you're gonna

1093
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:42,600
Speaker 5: have army shoes, you're gonna have army shoes. And by

1094
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 5: the way, Mike get fixed, everything could be good, Like,

1095
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 5: so why why take the chance of just losing that opportunity?

1096
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,320
Speaker 5: Also for the player, I mean, great, you get another

1097
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 5: start down the road and your arm feels rested. But

1098
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:55,759
Speaker 5: if you could have had that, you know, no, no,

1099
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:57,440
Speaker 5: it would have been something you remember.

1100
00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:57,879
Speaker 1: The rest of your life.

1101
00:50:57,920 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 6: So yes, I don't know.

1102
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 5: I just think that there's got to be some perspective

1103
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:01,120
Speaker 5: to all.

1104
00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,359
Speaker 6: Of that, because you're reacting to the fear of what

1105
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:06,319
Speaker 6: might happen. Like to use an NBA analogy, if you're

1106
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 6: talking about low management, like remember more Michael Jordan when

1107
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:10,919
Speaker 6: he had like there he had the broken ankle or whatever,

1108
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 6: and they put him on a minute's limit that next

1109
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 6: season and despite the fact that he was dominating, they

1110
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 6: were playing game, there were competitive games down the stretch,

1111
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,080
Speaker 6: and they didn't play him because they said, no, we're

1112
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 6: managing you, we don't want you to get hurt. We're

1113
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 6: thinking about the longevity of your career. That's a little

1114
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 6: bit more justifiable because he's actually rehabbing coming back from

1115
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,759
Speaker 6: an injury. I mentioned Walker Bueler a second ago, a

1116
00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,359
Speaker 6: pitch limit for his first couple of starts. You get it. Yeah,

1117
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 6: you want to manage him, but there's no history of

1118
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 6: anything here. They got. This kid may end up having

1119
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,319
Speaker 6: a rubber arm for all we know. I'm not saying

1120
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:40,720
Speaker 6: all the numbers and the stats work against them. Maybe

1121
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,919
Speaker 6: they won't. Maybe he will be Clemens, who knows. Yeah,

1122
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 6: go out there and let him try.

1123
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I you know, I feel the same way.

1124
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:49,319
Speaker 4: You know.

1125
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 2: It's those guys are rare, right, like they inject life

1126
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:55,720
Speaker 2: into this sport.

1127
00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,640
Speaker 3: Now, it's funny. I don't know.

1128
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 2: I mean, FITZI, you're not the biggest baseball guy, Like

1129
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 2: you're not waking up going oh by. You know, I

1130
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,919
Speaker 2: want to go catch a ball game, right, Like that's

1131
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 2: not part of your day. Now, imagine if you know,

1132
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 2: like a Paul Schemes is in town. I don't know,

1133
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 2: I'm just making this up, right, And then you go,

1134
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 2: I want to drive to Fenway just to go see

1135
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:26,439
Speaker 2: him because you're a sportsman, right, Like that would catch

1136
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:27,440
Speaker 2: your eye.

1137
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 1: One hundred percent. I can't.

1138
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 5: I mean I went with the buddy to Fenway last year,

1139
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 5: and I cannot imagine for me going like you want

1140
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:36,240
Speaker 5: to get me to go to a bunch of games,

1141
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:37,759
Speaker 5: you want me to get you want to get me

1142
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 5: to keep going back. That's the way to do it,

1143
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 5: Like have a special moment in the park, like not

1144
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:43,759
Speaker 5: a wait, what are they doing?

1145
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,320
Speaker 1: Why are they okay? Like it's just your you're a

1146
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: thousand percent right.

1147
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:49,360
Speaker 5: You want to get me to keep going, Let me

1148
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 5: have that special moment for sure.

1149
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 2: And that's the one thing about baseball, See football gets

1150
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 2: football's football.

1151
00:52:56,200 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 3: Though I shouldn't.

1152
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:02,919
Speaker 2: I shouldn't compare anything to football because because they we'll

1153
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,040
Speaker 2: get into this coming up, because of just how they

1154
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 2: do their schedule. It is amazing how the NFL flexes

1155
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:17,480
Speaker 2: like there was nothing bigger like the schedule coming out.

1156
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:19,879
Speaker 2: First of all, it was leaked during the day, right,

1157
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 2: we know all the opponents, We know that the leaks

1158
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 2: are already certain games were put out there, the international games, right,

1159
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 2: and yet I found myself like locked into it is

1160
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,400
Speaker 2: this leak schedule, right, Like I couldn't wait for the

1161
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:39,839
Speaker 2: come out.

1162
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:41,320
Speaker 6: I'm still watching it.

1163
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,960
Speaker 2: It's a freaking schedule and I was caught up in it.

1164
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,480
Speaker 1: I think we all were. That's the craziest thing.

1165
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 5: Everybody, Like, I think it's the dumbest day of the

1166
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 5: year in sports because we all know the games, but

1167
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 5: just we're just figuring out when they're happening. And yet

1168
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,080
Speaker 5: I was still sitting there watching with two TVs on

1169
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 5: one on ESPN on NFL Network, watching every ounce of it,

1170
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:03,280
Speaker 5: trying to figure out what was happening.

1171
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,280
Speaker 3: It's it's funny.

1172
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,919
Speaker 6: I like this.

1173
00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 3: I don't know. I guess it.

1174
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:15,720
Speaker 2: To me, it's a symbol to look forward to something,

1175
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:18,920
Speaker 2: right Like we all need milestones in life, right, we

1176
00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:22,160
Speaker 2: all need to get to certain points to look for

1177
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:28,360
Speaker 2: it or mile posts, right Like, I don't know, I

1178
00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 2: love it. I mean unabashedly I love it. I just

1179
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,959
Speaker 2: think it's you know, because I'm starting to go, wow,

1180
00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 2: I like this aspect.

1181
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: I like that.

1182
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,000
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, it's Halloween.

1183
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 6: And all the Thanksgiving and.

1184
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 3: You know it's the best time of the year.

1185
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, September through January, you know, up

1186
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,879
Speaker 2: until like the holidays is the best. My favorite time

1187
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:52,480
Speaker 2: the calendar.

1188
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's funny because somebody asked me yesterday with all

1189
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 5: this diet stuff I'm doing, They're like, why would you

1190
00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 5: do that going into summer? And I was like, because

1191
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 5: summer's not my favorite season. Fall is like, fall is

1192
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 5: far better than summer, There's no question about it.

1193
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:07,680
Speaker 1: Like, if I'm going to.

1194
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 5: Limit everything that I'm consuming and I'm going to try

1195
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 5: and like stay super focused, I'm gonna do that during summer,

1196
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:15,839
Speaker 5: and I will. I will then allow myself the grace

1197
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:17,799
Speaker 5: to have a little bit of an extra wiggle room

1198
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,240
Speaker 5: in the fall because fall is far better.

1199
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, figure fallsman.

1200
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:25,400
Speaker 6: Oh one hundred percent. Now, granted, the summer body is

1201
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 6: definitely important. I think I probably have to value that

1202
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 6: considering it the part of the country that I live

1203
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 6: into a certain degree as well. But yes, you know,

1204
00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 6: I love fits a strategy because you're at a point

1205
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 6: in time where you want to, you know, grind off

1206
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:37,680
Speaker 6: all of the get off all the extra weight, get

1207
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 6: yourself a prime shape because you know, when football season

1208
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,840
Speaker 6: rolls around, there's going to be a weekend or five

1209
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,359
Speaker 6: or seven where you might let loose a little bit,

1210
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,240
Speaker 6: you know, and it's fine. You want to give yourself

1211
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 6: a little you know, as you mentioned wiggle room to say,

1212
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 6: you know what, I have myself a bad couple hours

1213
00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 6: but it's all right because I put I grind it

1214
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 6: all those months back back in May, June, and July,

1215
00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:57,640
Speaker 6: so I can let loose a little bit here in

1216
00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 6: October four a week or two, and I'll be okay.

1217
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:01,320
Speaker 6: I like the strategy.

1218
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 5: I do way more on camera work during fall, too,

1219
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 5: like just to be selfish for a second, Like so yeah,

1220
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:08,040
Speaker 5: you know, during the summer, like nobody want to see

1221
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:09,919
Speaker 5: my ugly mug during the summer, but during the fall,

1222
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:11,880
Speaker 5: you can't help but see it on Yahoo. So like

1223
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 5: it's gonna be out there everywhere, right, So like there's

1224
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:16,719
Speaker 5: just a moment of like, hey, gotta look good for

1225
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 5: the camera to come on.

1226
00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:23,240
Speaker 6: I like your vanity, buddy, absolutely, I like your vanity.

1227
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 2: All right, We're gonna take a quick time out and

1228
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 2: then I want to come back and I want to

1229
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 2: look at the nuances.

1230
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:33,040
Speaker 3: I want to see what you guys.

1231
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 2: Think about the doubleheaders. I wanted you think about, you know,

1232
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:38,839

1253
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 2: a couple of things because we're going to dive into

1254
00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:02,200
Speaker 2: the sketchule. So my man and I believe me, I

1255
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 2: understand this. But my man Eddie Webster, who's a great listener,

1256
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:10,000
Speaker 2: right and we appreciate him and we love them, but

1257
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 2: he hits me with dude, it's may. Don't worry about

1258
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:20,840
Speaker 2: the schedule. The art of looking forward to something. Isn't

1259
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 2: that a human like? Isn't that human in the like

1260
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 2: behavior like the like we need these things to look

1261
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 2: forward to it. So if you love football, what's wrong

1262
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 2: with looking forward to the schedule?

1263
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,640
Speaker 5: Look, I don't even love the schedule release as a

1264
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:40,960
Speaker 5: general concept, but I still agree with you on this,

1265
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 5: Like there is an element of man, you just start

1266
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:47,480
Speaker 5: to look and think, oh, what's it mean for this

1267
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:49,440
Speaker 5: holiday weekend? They're like, what am I going to do

1268
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:51,440
Speaker 5: around this? Like last year for me, you know, and

1269
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:53,240
Speaker 5: the Raiders were playing on Christmas Day. It was an

1270
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 5: exciting thing, you know. So I do think that there's

1271
00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:58,120
Speaker 5: some element too. It's been pointed out to me, as

1272
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:01,080
Speaker 5: cynical as I am with these schedule release there are

1273
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 5: so many people that right now are booking their trips

1274
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,320
Speaker 5: with their buddies and figuring out which game they're going

1275
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,040
Speaker 5: to go to. So I think what you forget when

1276
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 5: you say it's May is that there's still such a

1277
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 5: small inventory of NFL games compared to every other sport.

1278
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 5: Your favorite team has seventeen of them, and that's it.

1279
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,560
Speaker 5: So you do spend a lot of time looking forward

1280
00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 5: to those seventeen games because each of them has such

1281
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,760
Speaker 5: landmark importance to what your fall feels like. I mean,

1282
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 5: even mighty Mark pointed out to me during the break

1283
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 5: with all this diet stuff I'm doing that's going to

1284
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 5: go into the beginning of the fall, probably through all

1285
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,280
Speaker 5: of it. And he's like, you're not gonna be able

1286
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 5: to lead donuts and cake during Raiders games, Like these

1287
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 5: are the things we think about may because fall is

1288
00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 5: such a huge part of tradition and a huge part

1289
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:45,160
Speaker 5: of life.

1290
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm all in, look forward to every.

1291
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:49,720
Speaker 3: Occident, yes, and you know.

1292
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 2: Enough at Eddie, But like if you're not into the schedule,

1293
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 2: God bless but I am right, Like we're always quick

1294
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 2: to tell all the people why they shouldn't care about something,

1295
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:07,400
Speaker 2: like you know, like if you're in there something that

1296
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,320
Speaker 2: I'm not into it all right, So God, but I go,

1297
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:10,920
Speaker 2: God blessed.

1298
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 3: Enjoy yourself.

1299
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:15,120
Speaker 2: If that makes you happy, then it should if you

1300
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 2: were a sports And it goes back to loving football, right,

1301
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 2: Like there's just something about the freaking sport, Like I

1302
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:27,720
Speaker 2: can't wait. We have mini camp, our camps for the kids.

1303
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:34,080
Speaker 2: Monday night, I went to a parents meeting for incoming freshmen.

1304
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 2: So my Antony's going to Saint Augustine, which is a

1305
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:43,680
Speaker 2: high school in New Jersey, and so you know, if

1306
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:47,680
Speaker 2: you're gonna play football, you know, and he's had to

1307
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,120
Speaker 2: play football, so we we know.

1308
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 3: When the parents had a meeting with.

1309
01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:54,200
Speaker 2: The coaches and everything on Monday last this past Monday

1310
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,560
Speaker 2: night the school, I was pumped up, like, you know,

1311
01:00:58,000 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 2: like I was fired up over that, like, let's go,

1312
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 2: oh man.

1313
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 6: We get when he's got to start lifting.

1314
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:05,960
Speaker 2: You know, in two weeks they have their off season

1315
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 2: lifting program, they have a camp. Mini can't like, let's go, man, Like,

Speaker 2: you know, I love that, I love we love this sport.

1317
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:18,560
Speaker 2: So it's obviously looking forward to the schedule is a

1318
01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 2: part of it.

1319
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 5: It's funny to me because what you said resonates with

1320
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:24,440
Speaker 5: me about like, hey, if you don't love it, cool,

1321
01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 5: like that's fine. Could you imagine standing in line at

1322
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 5: the movie theater and you're like, hey, what are you

1323
01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:32,480
Speaker 5: gonna go see? I'm gonna go see you know, dead

1324
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 5: Dipole versus Wolverine. That sucks. That's terrible.

1325
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 1: You suck. Why are you gonna go see that? That's

1326
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 1: the society we live in.

1327
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 5: There is this moment like instead of just being like cool,

1328
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 5: enjoy the movie, like cool, you like the schedule, Enjoy

1329
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 5: the schedule? Like this is yes, this is just at

1330
01:01:47,920 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 5: some point, whatever sport you love, you cannot deny the

1331
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,920
Speaker 5: fact that the NFL has taken over the consciousness.

1332
01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:57,600
Speaker 1: Of the country like that. It's just part of how

1333
01:01:57,680 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: we are wired.

1334
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 5: I cover a lot of college football, We talk a

1335
01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:03,440
Speaker 5: lot of college football on the show, and it feels

1336
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 5: like we're even forgetting already that this season is going

1337
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,280
Speaker 5: to be unprecedented in college football.

1338
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:12,200
Speaker 1: Kidd forgot that, Well, we haven't.

1339
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 5: But like, as a general conversation, there's so little like, man,

1340
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 5: we got conference realignment, we got games taking place that

1341
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,680
Speaker 5: you never used to see that they are all going

1342
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,720
Speaker 5: to be happening in a year with an expanded playoff,

1343
01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 5: like this is going to be the wildest year of

1344
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 5: college football of all time. And again I'll mention this,

1345
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,840
Speaker 5: the NFL still put two games on Saturday against the

1346
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,360
Speaker 5: first round of the new expanded Playoff, even with their

1347
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 5: partnership with ESPN, they still did that. Like that shows

1348
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:38,520
Speaker 5: you how much the NFL is king. They're part of

1349
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 5: the mindset from January one to December thirty one, and

1350
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:43,560
Speaker 5: nothing changes that.

1351
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 2: Nothing nothing changes that, And it's so spot on. But

1352
01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 2: you're wow, man, you're so right like you would never

1353
01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:55,400
Speaker 2: go up to someone in the movie in align to

1354
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 2: buy tickets and say and say that, like what are

1355
01:02:58,480 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 2: you here to say?

1356
01:02:59,400 --> 01:02:59,880
Speaker 3: That sucks?

1357
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:02,640
Speaker 2: You sucked, right Like you would never say it to

1358
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:05,880
Speaker 2: a person, But online we have no problem doing that.

1359
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 3: Like volunteering, you're an idiot because you.

1360
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:12,880
Speaker 6: Like to schedule. Now ye Eddie didn't say that, but.

1361
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,880
Speaker 2: The fact but right away look at chastis like, now

1362
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:24,000
Speaker 2: you don't like think about the civility of like where

1363
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:24,400
Speaker 2: is it?

1364
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:28,440
Speaker 3: Like you like, dude, do you mind that I like football?

1365
01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:29,440
Speaker 6: Is it okay?

1366
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:33,320
Speaker 2: Then I indulged myself with looking forward to September?

1367
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:34,280
Speaker 3: Is that all right?

1368
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:36,760
Speaker 6: Does that fit your mold?

1369
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 5: I went to a sports bar right down the street

1370
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 5: last night, and you know, since I'm not drinking, the

1371
01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 5: first I met a buddy there to watch the next camp.

1372
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 5: And so we're sitting there and I immediately the first

1373
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 5: thing I did when the bartender walked up is I

1374
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 5: gave her a twenty and I said, look, I'm just

1375
01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:55,680
Speaker 5: drinking soda water. I'm not eating, and I don't want

1376
01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:57,280
Speaker 5: you to think that you're not going to get anything.

1377
01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 5: So if you could just keep my soda water full,

1378
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 5: I would really appreciate it. She was super sweet. She

1379
01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,360
Speaker 5: did a great job all night. My buddy sits down

1380
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 5: and orders an ipa. I don't particularly like beer. I

1381
01:04:07,400 --> 01:04:10,080
Speaker 5: don't drink a lot of beer, and I don't like IPAs.

1382
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:10,480
Speaker 1: But that's okay.

1383
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 5: It never once would have occurred to me to look

1384
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 5: at her and be like, why are you ordering that?

1385
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:18,120
Speaker 5: That's trash. But that's the way we treat everything on

1386
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,200
Speaker 5: social media. It's like, oh, I can't just let somebody

1387
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,200
Speaker 5: order a beer. I then have to comment on what

1388
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:25,760
Speaker 5: I think of that they need volunteering.

1389
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 3: You need the volunteer, which is a weird thing. And

1390
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 3: I'll say like.

1391
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:35,360
Speaker 2: This, like cause I think the technology, the togethern is

1392
01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:40,520
Speaker 2: like we're missing the Sometimes I think we miss the

1393
01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:46,720
Speaker 2: boat with social media in the sense that there's always

1394
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:53,200
Speaker 2: a negative tone to it when you know what it

1395
01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:58,320
Speaker 2: could be like an incredibly unifying experience as well, like

1396
01:04:58,360 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 2: it could be an amazing tool to lift people, like

1397
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:08,600
Speaker 2: if you look at life instead of always looking to

1398
01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:13,200
Speaker 2: bring someone down or criticize somebody or being jealous or

1399
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:17,640
Speaker 2: whatever hang ups or you know, horrible beliefs you have,

1400
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,520
Speaker 2: you know sometimes like put that nonsense to the side

1401
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,720
Speaker 2: and if we're all together like the whole thing. And

1402
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 2: I know it sounds, you know, corny, but it actually

1403
01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:29,720
Speaker 2: could be an amazing tool.

1404
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 5: I tell people all the time when they hate tweet

1405
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 5: any of my work. Imagine if you put the same

1406
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:37,959
Speaker 5: energy into supporting what you love instead of telling people

1407
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 5: what you don't like. Like if instead of spending all

1408
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 5: of our time and being like, I hate your show,

1409
01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:46,439
Speaker 5: I hate your content, I hate your team, I hate

1410
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,680
Speaker 5: your music, whatever it is, if you spend that same

1411
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:53,920
Speaker 5: thirty seconds posting to somebody I love the work you do. Like,

1412
01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,200
Speaker 5: just find what you support and love it with the

1413
01:05:57,200 --> 01:06:00,560
Speaker 5: same level of you know, passion that people want.

1414
01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:02,880
Speaker 1: To hate everything else. The social media would be such

1415
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:03,840
Speaker 1: a different place to win.

1416
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,800
Speaker 2: Back to Listen, I don't even mean like I mean,

1417
01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,120
Speaker 2: I mean Eddie was benign, like even say they're bad.

1418
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 2: It was just one of those things where it just

1419
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:15,520
Speaker 2: struck me. Is you know, if you like football, like

1420
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:18,960
Speaker 2: you're of course going to like and look forward to

1421
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:23,520
Speaker 2: this schedule like I get it's May, but you know, shoot,

1422
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 2: it won't be right. It's looking forward to it. It's

1423
01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 2: one of those things that look forward to it. Can

1424
01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:33,360
Speaker 2: I ask you a guy's a question because it's bugging me.

1425
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 2: Now I'm going to do a little hate, just a

1426
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:41,320
Speaker 2: little bit. How in the world do the Cowboys get

1427
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 2: that many prime time games? The last time we show

1428
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:50,560
Speaker 2: the Cowboys, they were getting boat raced by the Packers

1429
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 2: at home in a divisional after a buye and a

1430
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:56,480
Speaker 2: division around the playoffs.

1431
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:03,480
Speaker 5: Because they're still such a popular conversation, like there's still

1432
01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,360
Speaker 5: you know, it's not about good football, and you're a

1433
01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 5: thousand percent right, one of my colleagues said Yahoo Joey

1434
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:14,600
Speaker 5: Epstein pointed out from the media call when the NFL

1435
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 5: VP was talking about how they put the schedule together.

1436
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:21,280
Speaker 5: He said, I'm paraphrasing here, but he basically said, the

1437
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 5: Chiefs have become as as can't miss as the Cowboys

1438
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,240
Speaker 5: are for us in the schedule, which is why they're

1439
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:29,840
Speaker 5: giving the Chiefs so many big windows.

1440
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:31,480
Speaker 1: And she laughed about it.

1441
01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 5: How is it possible that you're saying the Chiefs, who

1442
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,400
Speaker 5: are in the middle of a dynastic era that we

1443
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:39,840
Speaker 5: rarely see, have risen to the level of a team

1444
01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:43,160
Speaker 5: that hasn't played in a Super Bowl since ninety what,

1445
01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:47,160
Speaker 5: So you know, like there's a I think it's gross

1446
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,640
Speaker 5: at some point, but it's funny to I just I

1447
01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:52,520
Speaker 5: literally laugh at the fact that the Cowboys could be

1448
01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 5: three and fourteen this year and people will still watch them.

1449
01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 5: I don't know why. I've never understood the infatuation with

1450
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:01,720
Speaker 5: the brand. I don't understand the infatuation with the team.

1451
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,440
Speaker 5: I don't understand why we cover them differently than we

1452
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,400
Speaker 5: cover other teams. Like I just I don't get it

1453
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 5: at all, But they put them there because, man, people

1454
01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:12,760
Speaker 5: will flock to watch it. I just I don't understand it.

1455
01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:20,519
Speaker 2: I feel you probably, I feel you, man, I get it.

1456
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:25,000
Speaker 2: You know, I get it. It's amazing. So how do

1457
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:28,479
Speaker 2: you guys feel about your Raiders? So let's go, let's

1458
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:30,559
Speaker 2: start there. How do you feel about your schedule?

1459
01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:32,920
Speaker 5: Figure, I don't know what you think, but I think

1460
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,559
Speaker 5: the schedule played out pretty nice. Like, look, we already

1461
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 5: know who the teams are, so the question is just

1462
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:41,160
Speaker 5: when are they playing? And I looked at that schedule.

1463
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:43,160
Speaker 5: The bye week is around the middle of the season,

1464
01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:46,599
Speaker 5: so that's a nice thing. Yes, there are some East

1465
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:48,760
Speaker 5: Coast starts, but we knew that that was going to

1466
01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:49,719
Speaker 5: be the case anyway.

1467
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 1: Like, I felt like the schedule played out pretty fair.

1468
01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 5: I've heard a lot of people complain about opening with

1469
01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:56,360
Speaker 5: two straight games on the road, but one of those

1470
01:08:56,400 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 5: games and is in LA, which is barely on the road.

1471
01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:01,679
Speaker 5: You're talking about a stadium that's going to be filled

1472
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:04,160
Speaker 5: against the Chargers with a bunch of Raiders fans, and

1473
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:06,840
Speaker 5: in Week one, that's what a five hour drive like,

1474
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 5: I barely call that a road game. So I think

1475
01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 5: the schedule looks nice. I think they did a nice

1476
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 5: job putting it together in a fairway. Not a lot

1477
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:16,240
Speaker 5: of cold weather. The only really cold weather concern is

1478
01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:19,200
Speaker 5: maybe a little bit with Cincinnati, but mostly with that

1479
01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:20,960
Speaker 5: Black Friday game against the Chiefs.

1480
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:23,000
Speaker 1: Like, I think it was good.

1481
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:26,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it stacks up in their favor again

1482
01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:28,759
Speaker 6: for whatever it means, you know, looking at this far ahead,

1483
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,400
Speaker 6: but no crazy long road trips. You have back to

1484
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:33,240
Speaker 6: back road games, but they're split up by a bye

1485
01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 6: week between Cincinnati and Miami in weeks nine and week eleven,

1486
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:39,400
Speaker 6: and then you have Kansas City and tap A Bay

1487
01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 6: and back to back weeks and maybe they'll stay east.

1488
01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:42,720
Speaker 6: I know a lot of times teams will do that

1489
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 6: for early kicks. So we'll see how that works out.

1490
01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 6: But for the most part, it's a pretty well balanced

1491
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:50,080
Speaker 6: out schedule, so I'm not upset with it at all.

1492
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:52,719
Speaker 6: People complain about the amount of air miles that certain

1493
01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:55,840
Speaker 6: teams have to fly in a particular season, and usually

1494
01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,639
Speaker 6: it's teams from going west to east with a lot

1495
01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:00,800
Speaker 6: of the early kickoffs. I believe it's whether the Raiders

1496
01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,280
Speaker 6: have four early kicks, which on the grand scheme is

1497
01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:04,599
Speaker 6: not that many. It's not that bad.

1498
01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:05,880
Speaker 1: By the way.

1499
01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:09,280
Speaker 5: I'm stealing this with my buddy Q Myers, but I

1500
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:11,839
Speaker 5: just have to say, the Raiders should be the permanent

1501
01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:15,080
Speaker 5: host of the Black Friday game. They wear black uniforms

1502
01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:17,559
Speaker 5: at home, they play in a black stadium. Black Friday

1503
01:10:17,600 --> 01:10:19,720
Speaker 5: should be at Allegiance. It's that should be.

1504
01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:21,639
Speaker 6: I love that. That's a great idea.

1505
01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:25,120
Speaker 5: The Raiders should be the permanent Black Friday host. I

1506
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:25,760
Speaker 5: can get with that.

1507
01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:26,439
Speaker 4: I like that.

1508
01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:27,800
Speaker 3: I like that a lot.

1509
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:31,800
Speaker 2: Actually, and listen, you know, and I'm impartially here.

1510
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:33,280
Speaker 3: I think it's a great idea.

1511
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:39,040
Speaker 2: Let me take Thanksgiving, you know, could be going Detroit,

1512
01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:44,120
Speaker 2: make you know, Vegas the Detroit of Black Friday.

1513
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:46,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm all over this. How do you feel about

1514
01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,759
Speaker 1: the Eagles schedule. Did it play out the way you wanted?

1515
01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:50,640
Speaker 2: Uh?

1516
01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 3: Yes and no.

1517
01:10:51,479 --> 01:10:55,719
Speaker 2: I you know, I listen, they gotta they finish really

1518
01:10:55,760 --> 01:11:00,400
Speaker 2: well for the last five games are at home, so

1519
01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 2: they're there. They don't have any nasty stretches. Really, they

1520
01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:08,639
Speaker 2: have a couple back to backs that just about everybody has.

1521
01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:12,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I mean, it's it's good from a fan perspective.

1522
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:16,800
Speaker 2: They lose a home game because of the Brazil trip,

1523
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,719
Speaker 2: because they're playing the Packers in Brazil.

1524
01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:20,599
Speaker 1: You're going you get to go to Brazil?

1525
01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:21,040
Speaker 4: Is that?

1526
01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:23,599
Speaker 1: Are we doing this thing? The Fellas live from Brazil.

1527
01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:27,759
Speaker 6: So I'm in talks. I'm trying to figure this out.

1528
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:31,800
Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure this out, in which case I

1529
01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:38,000
Speaker 2: want to make sure you get like you guys are

1530
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:41,640
Speaker 2: with me, all right, like this is this will be

1531
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:44,320
Speaker 2: a big deal that we'll go to Salt Polo.

1532
01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:48,560
Speaker 3: The Fellows going to sant Polo would be fantastic.

1533
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:50,559
Speaker 5: Look, I don't even need to bring it back. I'll

1534
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:52,800
Speaker 5: just wear some tear away pants and some speedos and

1535
01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:56,600
Speaker 5: let's go. Let's come on. Now with the short of

1536
01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:59,040
Speaker 5: the speedo, the better. Like I'm just might might have

1537
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,840
Speaker 5: to get some like laser hair removal on my legs

1538
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:04,479
Speaker 5: so that I'm just like, I'm pristine. I'm just gonna

1539
01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:08,479
Speaker 5: be silky smooth coming into that. Yeah, whoop, head to toe. Yes,

1540
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:11,240
Speaker 5: still come back, come back to the States a new man.

1541
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 5: Jason bbl fits.

1542
01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:21,200
Speaker 2: Oh, that's fantastic, That's fantastic. So, by the way, speaking

1543
01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:24,400
Speaker 2: of these teams, you know who got really screwed.

1544
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:27,520
Speaker 6: Who's that? The Steelers?

1545
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:29,800
Speaker 3: I mean, did you see.

1546
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:33,840
Speaker 2: The stretch they have to play in eleven games? They

1547
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:39,960
Speaker 2: have to play the Ravens of the Chiefs, the Eagles,

1548
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:43,519
Speaker 2: and the Ravens in a span of eleven days leading

1549
01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:43,840
Speaker 2: up the.

1550
01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:47,280
Speaker 6: Christmas well in Philadelphia and Baltimore back to back weeks

1551
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:50,559
Speaker 6: on the road. I mean, that's brutal. All coming off

1552
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:52,479
Speaker 6: of a home game against Cleveland, I mean, their division

1553
01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 6: is going to be ridiculous, be right. So you're home

1554
01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:58,320
Speaker 6: against Cleveland, at Philly, at Baltimore, then Kansas City and

1555
01:12:58,360 --> 01:13:01,680
Speaker 6: then then Cincinnati after that to close the season. That's

1556
01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:03,040
Speaker 6: a brutal stress. That's brutal.

1557
01:13:04,200 --> 01:13:04,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is.

1558
01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,960
Speaker 5: And you said that's the stretch of three games in

1559
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:12,519
Speaker 5: eleven days or whatever like that's there are so many

1560
01:13:12,560 --> 01:13:14,360
Speaker 5: teams this year. And I think Warren Sharp is the

1561
01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 5: one that pointed it out on social media that in

1562
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 5: the last whatever five years, there have been zero teams

1563
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:23,040
Speaker 5: that have ever had to play three games in ten days,

1564
01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:26,400
Speaker 5: and this year there are nine times that's happening. Like

1565
01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:29,599
Speaker 5: the NFL is just pounding some of these teams three

1566
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,040
Speaker 5: games in ten days, three games in eleven days, Like

1567
01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:35,840
Speaker 5: that's just that's unsustainable. Like we just we need to

1568
01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 5: remember that context when we're looking at teams and trying

1569
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 5: to figure out who's good and bad. Really we need

1570
01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:44,120
Speaker 5: to start factoring rest into that conversation a ton this

1571
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:45,840
Speaker 5: fall when we're analyzing.

1572
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:49,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, they go to the eighteen games, Yeah, they have

1573
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:51,479
Speaker 2: to put a second buy in there.

1574
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 6: I did hear interview that Mike norf You're did earlier

1575
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:56,280
Speaker 6: this week, the guy who's in charge of all the

1576
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,200
Speaker 6: scheduling for the NFL and talking about, you know, teams

1577
01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:01,960
Speaker 6: who have short week turnarounds and the amount you know

1578
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:04,280
Speaker 6: of travel and time and all that, and he says

1579
01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:06,639
Speaker 6: they do have an analytic department in the NFL office

1580
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:08,679
Speaker 6: that tries to take these things into account and follow

1581
01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:11,680
Speaker 6: and follows the numbers. If they haven't seen any discernible

1582
01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:16,640
Speaker 6: effect from a performance standpoint on the short turnarounds, the

1583
01:14:16,680 --> 01:14:18,920
Speaker 6: amount of games. He said, Kansas City, you know, it

1584
01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:20,679
Speaker 6: was a team last season that a lot of people

1585
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:23,559
Speaker 6: complained about when it came to that nature, and obviously

1586
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 6: they ended up winning the Super Bowl. So he said,

1587
01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:27,000
Speaker 6: it is something that the league is aware of, and

1588
01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:29,920
Speaker 6: they do monitor and try to avoid the most they can.

1589
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:34,280
Speaker 6: But unfortunately, sometimes, especially now with the proliferation of more

1590
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,880
Speaker 6: Thursday games, Christmas games, Saturday games, trying to get the

1591
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:41,960
Speaker 6: best matchups on TV involving teams like Kansas City ultimate times,

1592
01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:44,160
Speaker 6: ultimately you feel the crunch and have to end up

1593
01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:46,439
Speaker 6: having some teams play on us shorter turnarounds than you

1594
01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:49,640
Speaker 6: would like. But so far, they say that they have

1595
01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:53,719
Speaker 6: not seen a discernible effect on quality, injuries or any

1596
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,080
Speaker 6: of that when it comes to teams playing on a

1597
01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:58,080
Speaker 6: shorter leashes than other teams.

1598
01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 5: Cousin, I know we got to go to alright, I'll

1599
01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:05,280
Speaker 5: tease this. There's one team that has a historic rest

1600
01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:09,120
Speaker 5: disadvantage though that it is absolutely historic this season.

1601
01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:14,639
Speaker 2: Let's talk about it. Great tease. Fellas hanging Fox Sports

1602
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:25,080
Speaker 2: Radio Fellas Live from the tai Iraq Dot com Studios,

1603
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,120
Speaker 2: Jason fitz Kevin figures of Anthony Gargana.

1604
01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:30,360
Speaker 1: Uh.

1605
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:35,919
Speaker 3: Coming up at the top of the hour, Dick Girardi, our.

1606
01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:40,280
Speaker 2: Horse racing expert, will join us to discuss the Preakness

1607
01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:43,600
Speaker 2: and how to bet the Preakness. I guess we're some

1608
01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:47,000
Speaker 2: weather there too, so he'll tell you how to analyze

1609
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:48,519
Speaker 2: that that's coming up.

1610
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:50,200
Speaker 3: We'll have the brain a little bit later on.

1611
01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:53,120
Speaker 2: It took a little sports betting, so we got you

1612
01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:56,200
Speaker 2: covered in that arena on the weekend. All right, Fitzy

1613
01:15:56,280 --> 01:15:59,320
Speaker 2: had a good tease, so who got it the worst?

1614
01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:00,599
Speaker 1: Okay?

1615
01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:04,400
Speaker 5: So a couple of interesting nuggets from the from the

1616
01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 5: schedule release overall that are really about days of rest

1617
01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:10,920
Speaker 5: and one important note. This year there are sixty six

1618
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,240
Speaker 5: games that will be played where one team has at

1619
01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:15,600
Speaker 5: least a three day rest advantage.

1620
01:16:15,640 --> 01:16:18,599
Speaker 1: Think about that. Six days, six times three day.

1621
01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 5: It's historic. We've never seen anything like that. But what's

1622
01:16:22,080 --> 01:16:24,120
Speaker 5: really stunning is that when you start to look at

1623
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:27,120
Speaker 5: the number of games and then the cumulative rest. The

1624
01:16:27,120 --> 01:16:30,200
Speaker 5: San Francisco forty nine ers will play eight games this

1625
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:33,800
Speaker 5: year where they are at a rest disadvantage where they

1626
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:36,960
Speaker 5: have had less time to prepare than their opponent eight

1627
01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:40,880
Speaker 5: times this year. That to me is a stunning disadvantage.

1628
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:43,160
Speaker 5: When you start talking, like I realize that, you know,

1629
01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:46,080
Speaker 5: one game one day, you know, can happen here and there.

1630
01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:48,680
Speaker 5: But eight games they have overall over the course of

1631
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 5: the season, they have what Warren Sharp called a thirty

1632
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:54,599
Speaker 5: two days of cumulative rest disadvantage to their opponents. Compare

1633
01:16:54,640 --> 01:16:56,960
Speaker 5: that to New England, who will not play a single

1634
01:16:57,000 --> 01:16:59,160
Speaker 5: game this year where they have a rest disadvantage that

1635
01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:02,400
Speaker 5: I may think about the that's a stunning difference. Compare

1636
01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:05,559
Speaker 5: that to the Ravens, who have a rest advantage at

1637
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:08,519
Speaker 5: a historic rate. So you know, it is interesting the

1638
01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:10,840
Speaker 5: rest aspect. As we get late into the season. I

1639
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 5: just wonder if we're gonna see the forty nine ers

1640
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:15,599
Speaker 5: a little bit, you know, a little bit gased at

1641
01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:17,080
Speaker 5: the end of the year, and you see the Ravens

1642
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 5: coming on at the end of the year, maybe we

1643
01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:21,839
Speaker 5: need to look back at this rest advantage and say, Okay,

1644
01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:24,000
Speaker 5: the way the game's played out, really maybe.

1645
01:17:23,960 --> 01:17:29,240
Speaker 6: Wow, that's fascinating. Eight that's a big deal.

1646
01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 2: You're right, eight games, damn, because like that's like a

1647
01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:38,520
Speaker 2: that's such such a big deal. When it comes to preparation,

1648
01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 2: you know, you're you're taking you out of your normal

1649
01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 2: you know week, you know, whatever normal is. Now that's

1650
01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:50,639
Speaker 2: a huge thing. I didn't know that. That's great stuff.

1651
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:54,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think some of this analytics is

1652
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:58,680
Speaker 5: a little bit overwhelming, but it is clear that at

1653
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:00,800
Speaker 5: this point the league is doing whatever they can to

1654
01:18:00,880 --> 01:18:03,240
Speaker 5: simply make sure that they have the best games and

1655
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:04,080
Speaker 5: the best windows.

1656
01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 1: And it doesn't really matter.

1657
01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 5: You know, I mentioned earlier three games in ten ten

1658
01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:11,160
Speaker 5: days we haven't seen in years, and this year we're

1659
01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:14,360
Speaker 5: seeing a historic number. We're seeing a historic number of

1660
01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:17,320
Speaker 5: a three plus day advantage when it comes to rest.

1661
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 1: What does that tell us?

1662
01:18:18,439 --> 01:18:20,960
Speaker 5: That tells us the league is really worried most about

1663
01:18:20,960 --> 01:18:23,439
Speaker 5: making sure that the best games go to the best windows.

1664
01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:25,639
Speaker 5: And that's that's just the way the NFL is gonna work.

1665
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:28,040
Speaker 5: That's why, I mean, Netflix isn't paying all that money

1666
01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:29,640
Speaker 5: to get a bad game right like they want to

1667
01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:30,000
Speaker 5: a game.

1668
01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,639
Speaker 2: Did you see that at Al Michael's interview talking about

1669
01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:33,559
Speaker 2: the Amazon stuff.

1670
01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:35,400
Speaker 1: No, it was.

1671
01:18:35,560 --> 01:18:39,280
Speaker 3: It was really interesting because he talked about some.

1672
01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:41,360
Speaker 2: Of these games and he's like, dude, He's like, you know,

1673
01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:44,120
Speaker 2: I love that at this stage of his life.

1674
01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:46,120
Speaker 3: I mean, he's just completely forthright now.

1675
01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:52,120
Speaker 2: It's like sometimes it's hard to garner excitement for some

1676
01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:54,360
Speaker 2: of the games that they had, and they had some

1677
01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:57,280
Speaker 2: bad games, and you know you're not going to be

1678
01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:01,000
Speaker 2: able to garner as much excitement. So, like, you know,

1679
01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:04,400
Speaker 2: when you're signing these incredible deals to these like you

1680
01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:07,160
Speaker 2: said the Netflix and you know now you're on restreaming

1681
01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:11,360
Speaker 2: service Peacock this one, they're gonna want good games, good

1682
01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:12,520
Speaker 2: quality games.

1683
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I don't I don't blame them, it's just

1684
01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:17,800
Speaker 5: what and this is what we want.

1685
01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:19,040
Speaker 1: We also don't want to see.

1686
01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 5: Like, let's be honest, none of us are sitting here

1687
01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:23,840
Speaker 5: clamoring to watch the Titans take on the Jags on

1688
01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:27,280
Speaker 5: Christmas Day. Like that's not something everybody's excited about. The

1689
01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 5: only thing I would say to all of that is

1690
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:31,280
Speaker 5: that we just need to remember that there is consequence

1691
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,320
Speaker 5: to that when it comes to the way it actually

1692
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 5: impacts the teams. The teams we want to see, you know,

1693
01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 5: it just might mean that it's making some of their

1694
01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:39,080
Speaker 5: lives more difficult.

1695
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:44,719
Speaker 6: Wow, that's fascinating, that's real. That's really interesting.

1696
01:19:46,320 --> 01:19:49,360
Speaker 2: By the way, you mean you did Niners nugget have

1697
01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:53,320
Speaker 2: the interested So their win total.

1698
01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:56,080
Speaker 6: It's eleven and a half.

1699
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:03,679
Speaker 5: That thing that's that's that's just eleven and a half.

1700
01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 5: I think the forty nine ers are a really good

1701
01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:09,200
Speaker 5: football team. I think eleven and a half is just

1702
01:20:09,479 --> 01:20:11,639
Speaker 5: a heavy number a lot of times when we come

1703
01:20:11,640 --> 01:20:13,080
Speaker 5: into the season and I know.

1706
01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:19,120
Speaker 6: the teams they have to play, in the amount of

1707
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,240
Speaker 6: air miles they have to travel, specifically in the middle

1708
01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:23,639
Speaker 6: of their season. Well, you know, you.

Speaker 4: Fretness is my favorite of the Triple Crown races for

1791
01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:06,920
Speaker 4: the simple reason that it's home. I grew up I

1792
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes from Pimlico, where the races today, and I

1793
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:14,200
Speaker 4: want to say, this will be like Preaknous, like forty

1794
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:19,439
Speaker 4: five give or take, and covered like more than thirty

1795
01:25:19,479 --> 01:25:22,639
Speaker 4: of them for the Daily News, which offered me as

1796
01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:25,519
Speaker 4: Anthony knows that one of the world's great sports papers,

1797
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:28,880
Speaker 4: which just gave me chances to go everywhere back in

1798
01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:33,880
Speaker 4: the day when news papers actually had money. Times times

1799
01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:37,000
Speaker 4: have changed. But yeah, look I get to go back

1800
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:40,120
Speaker 4: and have some steam crabs and crab cakes and crabs soup.

1801
01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:42,960
Speaker 4: And it was a little Italy Thursday night at my

1802
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:46,040
Speaker 4: favorite spot down there, Chipperelli's with the great hell and

1803
01:25:46,080 --> 01:25:48,880
Speaker 4: whose annual waitress down there. We have a whole group

1804
01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:52,240
Speaker 4: that goes down. So yeah, it's fuld home week at

1805
01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:54,680
Speaker 4: the Preakness, and I love it well.

1806
01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:57,439
Speaker 5: By the way, I went to high school in Bowie, Maryland,

1807
01:25:57,520 --> 01:26:00,560
Speaker 5: So yeah, so I'm I.

1808
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:02,760
Speaker 1: This is the most awkward phrase ever.

1809
01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:04,720
Speaker 5: I get to say, I'm PG County throw and through

1810
01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:07,120
Speaker 5: because like when people say they're PG County, they don't

1811
01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:09,679
Speaker 5: usually think of me. But yeah, like yeah, I'm PG

1812
01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:11,320
Speaker 5: County throw and Through, so like, look, you have a

1813
01:26:11,320 --> 01:26:14,559
Speaker 5: many caabcakes. So so if I'm trying to bet this

1814
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,920
Speaker 5: thing like what you mentioned, it's different. Can I take

1815
01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:20,000
Speaker 5: anything away from the derby when I'm trying to figure

1816
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:21,560
Speaker 5: out what to bet on the breakness?

1817
01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:22,120
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1818
01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:24,439
Speaker 4: Well well well we'll chat about that, but first we

1819
01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:26,880
Speaker 4: need to talk about Boweie. I spent many days at

1820
01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:30,600
Speaker 4: Booey Racetrack, by the way, fitsy like many days. And

1821
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,200
Speaker 4: the shocking development is that I don't have some form

1822
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:38,400
Speaker 4: of like terminal disease because that place was bizarre.

1823
01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:39,240
Speaker 6: Uh.

Speaker 6: I love.

1827
01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:49,960

Speaker 4: gave away vials of dirt that day, which was the

1832
01:26:59,720 --> 01:27:03,000
Speaker 4: perfeci metaphor for Booie. The place was just a dump,

1833
01:27:03,960 --> 01:27:08,640
Speaker 4: so yeah, it's just a horrible place. But yeah, they

1834
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:11,320
Speaker 4: finally just closed it. But yeah, look, pig Kenny, I

Speaker 4: You're gone, Anthony, I'm out.

1842
01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:29,280
Speaker 3: I got no problem. Listen. I would.

1843
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:34,120
Speaker 2: I enjoy listening to Dick Girardi more than anything. So

1844
01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:37,080
Speaker 2: I'm happy just kind of be on the sidelads.

1845
01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:41,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, So order the Preakness. We had twenty horses three

1846
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:43,639
Speaker 4: weeks ago or two weeks ago. This typically happens. We're

1847
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:46,479
Speaker 4: down to eight. All the wanna bees and like, you know,

1848
01:27:46,560 --> 01:27:48,200
Speaker 4: I want to be in the Derby and get fancy

1849
01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,479
Speaker 4: dresses and their horse runs fifteenth. They go, I don't

1850
01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:52,160
Speaker 4: think we're going to The previous week just went not

1851
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:55,960
Speaker 4: very good. So we're down to eight. It was nine mouth.

1852
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,000
Speaker 4: It was going to be the favorite scratch. We have

1853
01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:01,440
Speaker 4: the Derby winner, which is cool, mystic thing in probably

1854
01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:05,799
Speaker 4: half the field is realistic to win Imagination for Bafford

1855
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:09,519
Speaker 4: on the outside, the stick Dan obviously, Tusk and Gold

1856
01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:12,120
Speaker 4: for Chad Brown and catching Freedom, who was fourth in

1857
01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:15,120
Speaker 4: the derby. Uncle Havy Anthony and I talked about him.

1858
01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:18,559
Speaker 4: He's the local Philadelphia horse, Pennsylvania breade stable to parks

1859
01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:21,879
Speaker 4: up in Ben Salem and Bucks County, be a rooting interest,

1860
01:28:21,920 --> 01:28:23,320
Speaker 4: but he's gonna have to run the race of his

1861
01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:26,479
Speaker 4: life to win. Top three would be great. But good

1862
01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:30,559
Speaker 4: Field probably a little more competitive with the top of

1863
01:28:30,600 --> 01:28:33,240
Speaker 4: the field than the Derby was because you just have

1864
01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,679
Speaker 4: so much so many horses in there have no chance

1865
01:28:35,720 --> 01:28:38,000
Speaker 4: and just mostly to just get in the way. But

1866
01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,000
Speaker 4: this is this is a more true run race, and

1867
01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:44,040
Speaker 4: it'll be the usual pandemonium down there in the infield

1868
01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,040
Speaker 4: and concerts and all that stuff. But yeah, no fancy

1869
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:47,800
Speaker 4: hats not left.

1870
01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:53,000
Speaker 2: What about weather? How bad? Because you're talking about some

1871
01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:55,120
Speaker 2: rain we have affected.

1872
01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:58,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, it looks like, Anthony, the rain is starting this

1873
01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:01,800
Speaker 4: morning down there. I'm actually back home. I'm driving down

1874
01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:06,920
Speaker 4: in a little bit and it's the last I saw

1875
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:09,360
Speaker 4: was a little less than a half an inch all day.

1876
01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:14,960
Speaker 4: But I don't think we're getting a downpour. But given

1877
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:19,160
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, maybe like thirty percent mid afternoon, So

1878
01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:20,400
Speaker 4: I don't know if they're going to be able to

1879
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:22,360
Speaker 4: get the track fast in time for the Preakness, which

1880
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:24,200
Speaker 4: as you said, is at seven o'clock. But it's just

1881
01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:26,120
Speaker 4: going to depend on, you know, how long does it rain,

1882
01:29:26,160 --> 01:29:28,000
Speaker 4: How hard is it rain? Can they do something with

1883
01:29:28,040 --> 01:29:31,760
Speaker 4: the racetrack? But bad rain Derby morning in Louisville, But

1884
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:34,760
Speaker 4: because it's stopped early enough, they were able to get

1885
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:37,479
Speaker 4: the track fast by Derby time. I don't know if

1886
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:39,839
Speaker 4: that's going to happen today, just the weather. The reports

1887
01:29:39,840 --> 01:29:42,080
Speaker 4: have just changed so often. But I could do without it.

1888
01:29:42,120 --> 01:29:45,120
Speaker 4: But I will say this, mystic damn people, they will

1889
01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:47,639
Speaker 4: not be unhappy if it's a sloppier muddy track because

1890
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:50,040
Speaker 4: he's already one big on it. So they're good on

1891
01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:52,800
Speaker 4: a fast door muddy and the muddy probably takes some

1892
01:29:52,880 --> 01:29:55,680
Speaker 4: other horses out of it, which probably paved the way

1893
01:29:55,720 --> 01:29:57,719
Speaker 4: for the Derby winter a little better chance.

1894
01:29:58,600 --> 01:30:00,559
Speaker 5: I mean, you mentioned getting the track ready, What does

1895
01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:01,200
Speaker 5: that entail?

1896
01:30:01,479 --> 01:30:02,120
Speaker 1: What is raining?

1897
01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:05,599
Speaker 4: Right? So what they'll do is in between races. Now

1898
01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:08,639
Speaker 4: they start racing today at ten thirty, and I mean

1899
01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:12,000
Speaker 4: it's it's there until like seven thirty at night. There's

1900
01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:14,519
Speaker 4: actually a race after the previous So what they'll do

1901
01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:17,280
Speaker 4: is they'll they'll harrow it. They have these tractors that

1902
01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:19,720
Speaker 4: just try to try to get the water out of it.

1903
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:22,240
Speaker 4: They'll what's known is float it, where they'll try to

1904
01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:25,280
Speaker 4: put get the water to the top, and then over time,

1905
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:28,000
Speaker 4: in between races, they'll just work on it and hope

1906
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:30,280
Speaker 4: they can get as much of the water out as possible.

1907
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:32,519
Speaker 4: But then it all depends on when the rain stops.

1908
01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:35,400
Speaker 4: Because this is an outdoor sport. You can't put a

1909
01:30:35,439 --> 01:30:39,040
Speaker 4: roof over racetracks just doesn't work. So it just it

1910
01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:42,599
Speaker 4: all depends on how much rain and what time it stops.

1911
01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,240
Speaker 4: But yeah, there are ways of doing this if the

1912
01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:47,720
Speaker 4: weather cooperates, but if it keeps raining, there's nothing they

1913
01:30:47,720 --> 01:30:48,200
Speaker 4: can do about.

1914
01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:53,240
Speaker 2: What did you I don't say miss about Mystic Dan,

1915
01:30:53,360 --> 01:30:57,920
Speaker 2: but what was you know? How good is Mystic Dan?

1916
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:04,879
Speaker 2: And you know were you surprised at its performance in

1917
01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:06,360
Speaker 2: the derby?

1918
01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:10,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, surprise probably isn't the right word. He was one

1919
01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:13,840
Speaker 4: of the horses. If everything broke right, maybe he would

1920
01:31:13,840 --> 01:31:16,479
Speaker 4: have been like maybe my sixth choice. I tell you

1921
01:31:16,560 --> 01:31:18,960
Speaker 4: I was betting that day, Antony, I was playing a contest.

1922
01:31:19,680 --> 01:31:21,640
Speaker 4: And it's the thing where you start with two thousand

1923
01:31:21,800 --> 01:31:23,920
Speaker 4: and it needed to get to like twenty five thousand

1924
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:26,040
Speaker 4: to win. And I was trying to get to ten

1925
01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:29,799
Speaker 4: thousand all day to bet eight thousand to win on Fierceness,

1926
01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:32,200
Speaker 4: who was the favorite of three to one and ran horrible.

1927
01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:34,760
Speaker 4: And then I was going to bet Sierra leone and

1928
01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:37,680
Speaker 4: finished second, first and second and five exactly. One of

1929
01:31:37,680 --> 01:31:39,639
Speaker 4: those was with Mystic Dan and I would have had

1930
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:41,200
Speaker 4: it for like two hundred, which would have got me

1931
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:44,519
Speaker 4: to twenty five thousand, but I never know. Oh wow, yeah,

1932
01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:46,040
Speaker 4: I needed to get to the ten. It was like,

1933
01:31:46,160 --> 01:31:47,720
Speaker 4: if you got here, you could get there. But I

1934
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:49,920
Speaker 4: just never got there to make that kind of a play.

1935
01:31:50,360 --> 01:31:53,680
Speaker 4: So he was if he could run back to his

1936
01:31:53,880 --> 01:31:57,320
Speaker 4: race in the Southwest Stakes at oaklahom Park, that was

1937
01:31:57,360 --> 01:31:59,120
Speaker 4: going to be good enough to give him a real chance.

1938
01:31:59,360 --> 01:32:01,240
Speaker 4: That was in the That was the question. Was it

1939
01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:04,320
Speaker 4: just because it was the mound or did he have

1940
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:06,639
Speaker 4: that kind of race in him. Then he came back

1941
01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:09,320
Speaker 4: in the Arkansas Derby and around kind of a flat third,

1942
01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:12,080
Speaker 4: beaten six lengths to move again. Would have been a

1943
01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:14,519
Speaker 4: favorite today if it was scratched. So saying you know

1944
01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:16,679
Speaker 4: which horse is going to happen? You know what horses

1945
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:19,360
Speaker 4: were going to see today, but a horse like Mystic Dan.

1946
01:32:19,439 --> 01:32:22,000
Speaker 4: And when you when you're gambling, you want to know

1947
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:25,880
Speaker 4: what horse can win if he gives the optimum performance,

1948
01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:28,719
Speaker 4: and has he ever done it before? It's like sports

1949
01:32:28,760 --> 01:32:31,320
Speaker 4: in that way. Has this team ever shown that they

1950
01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:33,400
Speaker 4: can do it? So when you have a horse you

1951
01:32:33,920 --> 01:32:35,840
Speaker 4: has shown at one point they can do it, you

1952
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:38,360
Speaker 4: have to at least consider them. And what I did

1953
01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:40,600
Speaker 4: was he was kind of a backhanded play for me.

1954
01:32:40,760 --> 01:32:43,599
Speaker 4: But yeah, I could have actually walked into this thing

1955
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:47,559
Speaker 4: by two noses. Yeah, it just it was one of

1956
01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:49,600
Speaker 4: the thought was good, that the idea was good, And

1957
01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:51,240
Speaker 4: it wasn't like I was playing Mystic Dan. I was

1958
01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:53,920
Speaker 4: playing Sierra Leone. He just wanted the five horses I

1959
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:56,479
Speaker 4: used with him, And I didn't use fiarseness at all

1960
01:32:56,720 --> 01:32:58,599
Speaker 4: in the exactness because I think I told you he's

1961
01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:01,040
Speaker 4: either going to be first or nowhere. That's kind of

1962
01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:04,080
Speaker 4: how he runs. When he runs good, he's phenomenal. No,

1963
01:33:04,280 --> 01:33:06,400
Speaker 4: he was horrible in the derby. I mean, he couldn't

1964
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:07,160
Speaker 4: have been any worse.

1965
01:33:07,880 --> 01:33:10,320
Speaker 5: So is there a long shot you like that there's

1966
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:11,240
Speaker 5: worth a play today?

1967
01:33:11,800 --> 01:33:12,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1968
01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:14,680
Speaker 4: One of the problems with the eight horse field and

1969
01:33:14,720 --> 01:33:18,280
Speaker 4: even the Derby to some extent, there's no long shots anymore.

1970
01:33:18,800 --> 01:33:21,599
Speaker 4: I mean they just because of crazy horses like rich

1971
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:24,920
Speaker 4: Strike two years ago. These wind pools in the Triple

1972
01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:29,040
Speaker 4: Crown races are totally inefficient. Like Uncle Heavy who was

1973
01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:31,800
Speaker 4: listed at twenty to one, he's seven to one after

1974
01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:33,640
Speaker 4: the early betting, I mean, I can't bet it at

1975
01:33:33,680 --> 01:33:36,439
Speaker 4: seven to lot. I much thought about it at twenty,

1976
01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:38,479
Speaker 4: but not at seven. That's just that you're not getting

1977
01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:43,760
Speaker 4: a fair price on that. Even the one Mugatu who

1978
01:33:43,800 --> 01:33:46,759
Speaker 4: had absolutely no chance is twenty to one. He should

1979
01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:50,120
Speaker 4: be one hundred to one. Wow, And he's the longest

1980
01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:52,080
Speaker 4: shot in the race. And I wouldn't bet him at twenty.

1981
01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:55,280
Speaker 4: It's like anything else. You think the horses should be

1982
01:33:55,360 --> 01:33:57,680
Speaker 4: thirty and he's sixty to one, then you might take

1983
01:33:57,680 --> 01:34:00,000
Speaker 4: a shot at him, but the opposite you don't do that.

1984
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:04,200
Speaker 4: So no long shot. No long shots for me today. Unfortunately,

1985
01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:05,599
Speaker 4: I'm just not sure there will be any.

1986
01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:08,680
Speaker 3: Is there? Like how do you attack this? You attack with?

1987
01:34:10,760 --> 01:34:12,680
Speaker 6: Do you do exacted trifectas?

1988
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:14,320
Speaker 3: Like what's the best way.

1989
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:19,280
Speaker 4: To Yeah, I don't have a tremendous feel for this race.

1990
01:34:19,360 --> 01:34:23,720
Speaker 4: I think there's two possibilities. I think Imagination could get

1991
01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:25,840
Speaker 4: out there and keep going for baffort the whole way,

1992
01:34:26,280 --> 01:34:28,280
Speaker 4: and if he does, it'll be a great story because

1993
01:34:28,320 --> 01:34:33,280
Speaker 4: his rider, Frankie Dettori, is a legendary in Europe, legendary

1994
01:34:33,320 --> 01:34:36,960
Speaker 4: guy Italian rider who's won every big race there is

1995
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:39,280
Speaker 4: in Europe, and he decided to spend his final year

1996
01:34:39,360 --> 01:34:41,439
Speaker 4: possibly of riding in America. And he's never won an

1997
01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:43,639
Speaker 4: American Triple Crown race. He just doesn't have much chance,

1998
01:34:43,680 --> 01:34:45,720
Speaker 4: so it would be cool if he could win. So

1999
01:34:45,840 --> 01:34:48,320
Speaker 4: I think Imagination is dangerous if he gets to the front,

2000
01:34:48,360 --> 01:34:50,759
Speaker 4: I think he will, And I think the next most

2001
01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:53,600
Speaker 4: likely winner is the Derby winner, Mystic Dany loves to

2002
01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:55,680
Speaker 4: ride the rail, as he did the Derby and as

2003
01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:57,320
Speaker 4: he did his win in Arkansas, and he's going to

2004
01:34:57,400 --> 01:34:59,320
Speaker 4: be on the rail three horses to his inside up

2005
01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:02,360
Speaker 4: no speed, So Brian Ornandaz is going to get him there,

2006
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:03,960
Speaker 4: and he's going to be closer. So I think you

2007
01:35:04,000 --> 01:35:09,280
Speaker 4: could do worse than Imagination and Mystic dan together. That's

2008
01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:11,559
Speaker 4: like a nine to five and a five to nine.

2009
01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:14,600
Speaker 4: But all the Tuscan goal is not out of the

2010
01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:18,759
Speaker 4: question either. It's not. I just don't feel super confident.

2011
01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:20,360
Speaker 4: But yeah, I had to make a play probably be

2012
01:35:20,439 --> 01:35:21,840
Speaker 4: nine to five mm.

2013
01:35:22,120 --> 01:35:24,080
Speaker 6: Interesting, that's that's that's good stuff.

2014
01:35:25,280 --> 01:35:28,519
Speaker 2: The fifty anything else, because I want to ask, no,

2015
01:35:28,720 --> 01:35:34,840
Speaker 2: think about some hoops real quick Game seven Indiana and

2016
01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:38,439
Speaker 2: the Knicks kind of where you lean in and in

2017
01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:39,920
Speaker 2: the Denver Minnesota.

2018
01:35:40,720 --> 01:35:43,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's it's bizarre, right, I mean, let's go

2019
01:35:43,360 --> 01:35:46,320
Speaker 4: with the second one first. So Denver wins by thirty

2020
01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:49,000
Speaker 4: or fifty and then Minnesota wins by fifty. How are

2021
01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:52,040
Speaker 4: you supposed to figure this out? Right?

2022
01:35:52,200 --> 01:35:54,439
Speaker 2: And I thought after the first two games it was

2023
01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:56,640
Speaker 2: that we were going to see the style, and it

2024
01:35:56,760 --> 01:36:01,679
Speaker 2: was that the Minnesota had a recipe defensively, you know.

2025
01:36:02,280 --> 01:36:05,439
Speaker 4: And then they didn't for three games, right, and the

2026
01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:08,280
Speaker 4: last last game they went back to the pressure and

2027
01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:12,360
Speaker 4: put Denver in trouble. I was a little I didn't

2028
01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:14,360
Speaker 4: understand Denver in the first round. I mean, they were

2029
01:36:14,439 --> 01:36:16,840
Speaker 4: very fortunate to win that series where they need two

2030
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:19,600
Speaker 4: buzzer beers to win against like a Lakers team that

2031
01:36:19,640 --> 01:36:22,680
Speaker 4: has two players as far as I can see. So

2032
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:24,920
Speaker 4: I'll lead to the home team Denver is I mean,

2033
01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:28,040
Speaker 4: they're the chance till somebody beats them. But I don't

2034
01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:31,320
Speaker 4: have a great deal of confidence given the up and

2035
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:36,439
Speaker 4: down nature of the series. As far as the Knicks look,

2036
01:36:36,680 --> 01:36:38,600
Speaker 4: the home team is not only won every game, they

2037
01:36:39,080 --> 01:36:41,720
Speaker 4: most dominated. So I'll take the Knicks in the guard.

2038
01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:45,439
Speaker 4: The Pacers just look petrified when they're there. But what's

2039
01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:47,519
Speaker 4: the story on Josh Hart? Is he going to be okay?

2040
01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:52,160
Speaker 4: He was having issues last night? When at what stage

2041
01:36:52,240 --> 01:36:55,000
Speaker 4: do the Knicks just run out of gas because they're

2042
01:36:55,040 --> 01:36:58,200
Speaker 4: playing so many guys so many minutes, and it's nobody's fault.

2043
01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:02,080
Speaker 4: They just all their guys are hurt. But and I

2044
01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:04,280
Speaker 4: just at bottom line, I don't think an the end,

2045
01:37:04,320 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 4: the Pacers play good enough defense. So I will take

2046
01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:08,960
Speaker 4: the Knicks. But Anthony, I heard you at the top.

2047
01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:10,719
Speaker 4: It doesn't bad. It's either one of them just getting

2048
01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:12,560
Speaker 4: killed by the Celtics. It's irrelevant.

2049
01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:16,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, Boston gets a layout.

2050
01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:21,640
Speaker 2: Oh Boston hate them.

2051
01:37:21,960 --> 01:37:24,520
Speaker 4: I know you love this. I know you love the Celtics.

2052
01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:27,640
Speaker 3: Oh god, they're going to carise.

2053
01:37:27,320 --> 01:37:30,680
Speaker 4: You for years, Anthony, because there's there's two wings. Are

2054
01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:32,639
Speaker 4: still only like twenty five or twenty six.

2055
01:37:34,120 --> 01:37:39,920
Speaker 2: They're so good, they're just such good players man Tatum Brown,

2056
01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:41,000
Speaker 2: Oh god.

2057
01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:41,960
Speaker 6: My brother.

2058
01:37:42,040 --> 01:37:46,719
Speaker 2: Listen, have a safe drive down there, and uh, enjoy

Speaker 4: You've got it. Thanks. Guy's always great.

2062
01:37:55,280 --> 01:38:00,520
Speaker 2: Talking the great Dick Girardi. He's such a character. He's

2063
01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:03,439
Speaker 2: he's fantastic the crack.

2064
01:38:03,520 --> 01:38:05,719
Speaker 3: Go for some crab cakes.

2065
01:38:07,000 --> 01:38:08,040
Speaker 1: You were you were h.

2066
01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:10,719
Speaker 3: You were a Maryland man.

2067
01:38:11,479 --> 01:38:13,360
Speaker 5: I mean just for just for the last few years

2068
01:38:13,439 --> 01:38:15,640
Speaker 5: high school, like you know, I was there for just

2069
01:38:15,680 --> 01:38:18,000
Speaker 5: a handful of years. But yeah, little PG counting threw

2070
01:38:18,040 --> 01:38:20,639
Speaker 5: it through a little. You know, I'm I'm the worst

2071
01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:23,240
Speaker 5: person ever to go have crabs with out there because

2072
01:38:23,479 --> 01:38:25,800
Speaker 5: I like to take my time and crack all of

2073
01:38:25,840 --> 01:38:27,639
Speaker 5: it and then just stack the meat. So I might

2074
01:38:27,680 --> 01:38:30,400
Speaker 5: spend like an hour making a stack of crab meat

2075
01:38:30,439 --> 01:38:32,360
Speaker 5: before I actually eat any of it, because I don't

2076
01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:34,519
Speaker 5: like picking as I go. I just want the whole

2077
01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:36,800
Speaker 5: mountain to meat at the end. So like people get

2078
01:38:36,880 --> 01:38:39,879
Speaker 5: very frustrated. I'm a mountain beat.

2079
01:38:40,840 --> 01:38:43,320
Speaker 3: You know what, Why am I not surprised?

2080
01:38:45,320 --> 01:38:45,880
Speaker 1: That's fair.

2081
01:38:46,400 --> 01:38:50,599
Speaker 2: I can see that I can see you doing, taking

2082
01:38:50,760 --> 01:38:56,559
Speaker 2: every leg right, every claw path, you know, having your yeah,

2083
01:38:56,560 --> 01:38:57,960
Speaker 2: I got it, I got it.

2084
01:38:58,800 --> 01:38:59,679
Speaker 3: That's my favorite.

2085
01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:05,160
Speaker 2: My favorite dish uh is crabs and I like to

2086
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:09,560
Speaker 2: do it in a red sauce with with over spaghetti.

2087
01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:12,519
Speaker 5: And now it's such, that's such the Italian thing, like

2088
01:39:12,560 --> 01:39:13,719
Speaker 5: I just need to dip it in butter.

2089
01:39:13,840 --> 01:39:15,679
Speaker 1: Just give me crabs and butter and I'm good.

01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:43,960
Speaker 1: I'm hungry.

01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:47,799
Speaker 2: All right, we're the fellas, hang it out. We probably

2100
01:39:47,840 --> 01:39:51,120
Speaker 2: will go back to football coming up next.

2101
01:39:52,640 --> 01:39:55,120
Speaker 3: Right here? Fox Sports.

2102
01:39:57,280 --> 01:40:01,959
Speaker 5: H whoa.

2103
01:40:03,840 --> 01:40:04,200
Speaker 3: Figgi?

Speaker 2: Yeah you get just a picture this get.

Speaker 1: Oh there's so much wiggling going on right now, I.

2106
01:40:14,040 --> 01:40:16,519
Speaker 6: Can't imagine.

2107
01:40:18,280 --> 01:40:23,280
Speaker 2: For the fella is welcome back. Jason Fits the man

2108
01:40:23,360 --> 01:40:28,719
Speaker 2: with the wiggle wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle wiggle, Uh, Kevin Figures.

2109
01:40:28,720 --> 01:40:33,080
Speaker 2: I'm Anthony Gargano. As we hang out on a Fox

2110
01:40:34,040 --> 01:40:39,360
Speaker 2: Sports Saturday from the tire Raq dot com studios. So

2111
01:40:40,080 --> 01:40:43,960
Speaker 2: a couple of things. I want to dive back into

2112
01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:47,360
Speaker 2: the NFL. So one of the things I love, and

2113
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:52,000
Speaker 2: I'm curious that you think. So, there are four Monday

2114
01:40:52,160 --> 01:40:58,120
Speaker 2: night doubleheaders. My only issue with them is that they're

2115
01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:03,000
Speaker 2: not staggered. They start forty five minutes, you know, before one.

2116
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:07,200
Speaker 2: I like to see both in their entirety. But you know, listen,

2117
01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:10,080
Speaker 2: I get to football, I get a double Monday Night.

2118
01:41:10,760 --> 01:41:12,799
Speaker 2: I love the double Monday Night FITZI.

2119
01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:17,559
Speaker 5: Okay, So here's my only sometimes dilemma, although I think

2120
01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:20,080
Speaker 5: they did a nice job with it this year. Sometimes

2121
01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:22,280
Speaker 5: the problem with the double Monday night is that it

2122
01:41:22,560 --> 01:41:25,639
Speaker 5: reduces the four o'clock games that East East time.

2123
01:41:25,680 --> 01:41:26,639
Speaker 1: That is what I'm talking about.

2124
01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:30,080
Speaker 5: Like, so, the worst experience on Sundays during the fall

2125
01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:32,320
Speaker 5: is if you're sitting in a packed bar. Let's say

2126
01:41:32,360 --> 01:41:34,800
Speaker 5: you go to like Dave and Busters at Buffalo Wild

2127
01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:37,160
Speaker 5: Wings and you're sitting there. You're watching football all day, right,

2128
01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:39,360
Speaker 5: like it's the one o'clock games, it's the early games,

2129
01:41:39,560 --> 01:41:42,200
Speaker 5: and the place is packed. There's this great energy and

2130
01:41:42,240 --> 01:41:44,240
Speaker 5: then you know, as a Raiders fan. I'm there early

2131
01:41:44,280 --> 01:41:45,920
Speaker 5: because I want to watch all these other games, and

2132
01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:48,200
Speaker 5: then I can't wait for people to share my joy

2133
01:41:48,439 --> 01:41:50,240
Speaker 5: during the Raiders game, and then you just watch the

2134
01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:52,880
Speaker 5: whole place empty out because the four o'clock game only

2135
01:41:52,880 --> 01:41:55,200
Speaker 5: has like two games, and nobody cares. They did do

2136
01:41:55,240 --> 01:41:57,800
Speaker 5: a nice job, you know, like that's the only thing.

2137
01:41:57,880 --> 01:42:00,479
Speaker 5: Like the selfish bummer in me. Sometimes when they've double

2138
01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:02,920
Speaker 5: headed Monday Night, what they end up doing is taking

2139
01:42:02,920 --> 01:42:04,200
Speaker 5: that game with the four o'clock slate.

2140
01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:06,040
Speaker 1: But this year they did a better job.

2141
01:42:06,080 --> 01:42:08,240
Speaker 5: I think they actually did a better job overall of

2142
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:10,800
Speaker 5: balance between one and four. So if I can get

2143
01:42:10,840 --> 01:42:12,960
Speaker 5: two Monday Night games but still have enough games at

2144
01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:13,880
Speaker 5: one and four, I'm happy.

2145
01:42:13,960 --> 01:42:14,360
Speaker 1: I'm good.

2146
01:42:15,640 --> 01:42:20,080
Speaker 6: FIG generally not a fan of the double Monday night doubleheader.

2147
01:42:20,640 --> 01:42:21,080
Speaker 3: I do that.

2148
01:42:21,479 --> 01:42:23,720
Speaker 6: I mean, look, I'll put it this way. If you're

2149
01:42:23,720 --> 01:42:26,760
Speaker 6: going to stagger them, then stagger them, but don't have

2150
01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:28,920
Speaker 6: them overlap. That's the big issue though, the point of

2151
01:42:28,960 --> 01:42:30,960
Speaker 6: having nationally televised games is so you can have a

2152
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:34,120
Speaker 6: spotlight matchup for everybody to be able to watch. I'm

2153
01:42:34,160 --> 01:42:35,439
Speaker 6: not a big fan of the fact that you're going

2154
01:42:35,520 --> 01:42:36,960
Speaker 6: to start one and then start the other one at

2155
01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:39,040
Speaker 6: halftime of the other, because isn't it sort of defeating

2156
01:42:39,080 --> 01:42:42,040
Speaker 6: the purpose as to why you have primetime games to

2157
01:42:42,080 --> 01:42:42,519
Speaker 6: begin with.

2158
01:42:43,240 --> 01:42:46,000
Speaker 1: It's just West coast elitist. What do you want?

2159
01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:47,759
Speaker 5: You want me up till three in the morning watching

2160
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:49,160
Speaker 5: the lague Monday night football game?

2161
01:42:49,240 --> 01:42:51,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know what we're doing? Fine, you call me

2162
01:42:51,320 --> 01:42:53,040
Speaker 6: what's ghost leadis? That's fine. I'm not saying we have

2163
01:42:53,080 --> 01:42:54,680
Speaker 6: to go back to the old opening weekend where you

2164
01:42:54,760 --> 01:42:57,920
Speaker 6: had you know, seven fifteen Pacific time kickoffs. You get kickoff.

2165
01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,080
Speaker 2: I should do that. I think they did. Should do

2166
01:43:01,280 --> 01:43:03,080
Speaker 2: saving in ten fifteen Eastern.

2167
01:43:03,400 --> 01:43:05,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, looking, everything is catered to the East

2168
01:43:05,720 --> 01:43:07,800
Speaker 6: coast as it is anyway, So instead of having a

2169
01:43:07,840 --> 01:43:10,200
Speaker 6: four to thirty pm kick, kick it off at three

2170
01:43:10,280 --> 01:43:12,200
Speaker 6: thirty pm and then kick off of the other game

2171
01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:14,640
Speaker 6: a little bit, you know, at six pm Eastern or

2172
01:43:14,640 --> 01:43:17,040
Speaker 6: something and just just staggers at the very least, if

2173
01:43:17,040 --> 01:43:19,400
Speaker 6: there's crossover between the end of the fourth quarter and

2174
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:21,000
Speaker 6: the start of the first quarter of the of the

2175
01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:23,559
Speaker 6: two games, then fine. But I can't have one game

2176
01:43:23,600 --> 01:43:25,400
Speaker 6: in the second quarter and the other games kicking off

2177
01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:27,360
Speaker 6: the fourth quarter at the same time. That that's a little.

2178
01:43:27,200 --> 01:43:27,600
Speaker 4: Much for me.

2179
01:43:28,800 --> 01:43:31,439
Speaker 5: Oh, I don't know, man, Like you know, I think

2180
01:43:31,880 --> 01:43:33,880
Speaker 5: I'm looking at the schedule here October twenty.

2181
01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:35,160
Speaker 1: First, we got the doubleheader.

2182
01:43:35,720 --> 01:43:39,400
Speaker 5: The nine o'clock Eastern game is Chargers at Cardinals.

2183
01:43:39,479 --> 01:43:40,640
Speaker 1: I just don't think.

2184
01:43:40,479 --> 01:43:42,479
Speaker 5: By that point, like, I don't think the Chargers are

2185
01:43:42,479 --> 01:43:43,800
Speaker 5: going to be very good, and I don't think people

2186
01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:46,000
Speaker 5: care about the Cardinals. So all of a sudden, like

2187
01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:48,759
Speaker 5: we end up with a ten pm Eastern start.

2188
01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:50,360
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, I don't want that at all. And

2189
01:43:50,360 --> 01:43:53,240
Speaker 1: by the way, that week would be locked in, wow,

2190
01:43:53,320 --> 01:43:54,400
Speaker 1: locked in with hard.

2191
01:43:54,600 --> 01:43:56,320
Speaker 6: I'll take the butler bed on. The charge is not

2192
01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:58,160
Speaker 6: being very good by the way, you know why.

2193
01:44:00,320 --> 01:44:02,519
Speaker 1: Look, I'm hammering in the under. I'm the Chargers. I

2194
01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:04,200
Speaker 1: think fine.

2195
01:44:04,200 --> 01:44:06,960
Speaker 6: I don't even know what that's their win total? Do

2196
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:09,800
Speaker 6: we know what the win total is? Again, I'm If

2197
01:44:09,880 --> 01:44:12,360
Speaker 6: I have to guess, I'd say it's probably nine nine

2198
01:44:12,360 --> 01:44:12,800
Speaker 6: and a half.

2199
01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:15,680
Speaker 3: Old on I got it, Okay, I got it, I

2200
01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:28,040
Speaker 3: got it. They got it. The old one.

2201
01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:24,960
Speaker 5: Hammer in the under, hammer in the under.

2202
01:44:25,040 --> 01:44:26,439
Speaker 1: I like that. I think that.

2203
01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:29,040
Speaker 5: I think the Chargers are going to be fine long term.

2204
01:44:29,040 --> 01:44:30,640
Speaker 5: I think Harbor is a very good coach, and I

2205
01:44:30,680 --> 01:44:33,400
Speaker 5: think they're gonna be very good long term. What happens

2206
01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:36,519
Speaker 5: every time a big name coach comes in. Every single

2207
01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:40,519
Speaker 5: time the big name coach, like, they come in and

2208
01:44:40,560 --> 01:44:43,200
Speaker 5: then it's like, Okay, we're gonna be great, and then

2209
01:44:43,240 --> 01:44:44,800
Speaker 5: a year in it's like, well, we just need to

2210
01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:45,679
Speaker 5: retool the roster.

2211
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:49,240
Speaker 2: So, you know, I think except you got Herbert Like

2212
01:44:49,240 --> 01:44:52,240
Speaker 2: that's the difference, and you don't showing Peyton walking in

2213
01:44:52,720 --> 01:44:55,360
Speaker 2: talent with them bust it up, you know, Ross, you

2214
01:44:55,400 --> 01:44:58,000
Speaker 2: have talent on the on the defensive line, like there

2215
01:44:58,080 --> 01:44:58,960
Speaker 2: is talent on the roster.

2216
01:44:59,000 --> 01:44:59,920
Speaker 6: I know they took a step back.

2217
01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:02,280
Speaker 1: There was talent on the roster last year too, and

2218
01:45:02,280 --> 01:45:04,519
Speaker 1: they weren't good enough. There was talent. There's talent on

2219
01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:05,000
Speaker 1: the rosters.

2220
01:45:05,760 --> 01:45:08,519
Speaker 6: Everyone coaching that could be other coach was horrendous. I

2221
01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:11,280
Speaker 6: mean Harball and turns things around almost instantly from day

2222
01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:14,320
Speaker 6: one everywhere that he's gone, and there wasn't a whole

2223
01:45:14,320 --> 01:45:16,960
Speaker 6: lot turning around that neat that was needed for the charge. Now,

2224
01:45:17,240 --> 01:45:19,120
Speaker 6: grand things fell out, the bottom fell out the end

2225
01:45:19,120 --> 01:45:21,040
Speaker 6: of the year last year, but for the most part

2226
01:45:21,040 --> 01:45:23,920
Speaker 6: this team has been flirting with between seven and ten

2227
01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:26,320
Speaker 6: wins the last four years or so. So you're telling

2228
01:45:26,360 --> 01:45:28,599
Speaker 6: me what Harball with an emphasis on the run game

2229
01:45:28,640 --> 01:45:31,439
Speaker 6: along with Justin Herbert. I mean, Harball I think is

2230
01:45:31,479 --> 01:45:33,680
Speaker 6: good enough for two wins just by himself.

2231
01:45:33,520 --> 01:45:36,240
Speaker 2: Agreed, especially after the guy the other guy was a

2232
01:45:36,320 --> 01:45:38,760
Speaker 2: negative to right he louded you too games?

2233
01:45:39,040 --> 01:45:41,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, No, For me, part of this is who's Justin

2234
01:45:41,840 --> 01:45:43,040
Speaker 5: Herbert throwing the football too?

2235
01:45:43,160 --> 01:45:43,960
Speaker 1: There's number one.

2236
01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:46,760
Speaker 5: And then even in this, you know we're gonna come

2237
01:45:46,760 --> 01:45:49,160
Speaker 5: in and power the football game. Their offensive line, they're

2238
01:45:49,360 --> 01:45:52,880
Speaker 5: just everybody presumes that they got the best guy impossible

2239
01:45:52,920 --> 01:45:54,439
Speaker 5: in the draft, and I think it was a great

2240
01:45:54,439 --> 01:45:56,760
Speaker 5: pick for them, But does that suddenly turn around their

2241
01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:58,360
Speaker 5: entire offensive line and make it epic?

2242
01:45:58,720 --> 01:46:00,439
Speaker 1: Like I think there are more whole there.

2243
01:46:00,840 --> 01:46:02,400
Speaker 5: And then you look at the amount of salaries that

2244
01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:05,360
Speaker 5: they had to dumb anyway, and also their defenses had

2245
01:46:05,400 --> 01:46:07,040
Speaker 5: these same names year in and year out, and that

2246
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:08,439
Speaker 5: defense is still the same defense.

2247
01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:09,200
Speaker 1: They gave up how.

2248
01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:11,120
Speaker 5: Many points to the Raiders last year? Like not just

2249
01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:13,919
Speaker 5: about the Raiders, I'm saying that at some point Chargers.

2250
01:46:14,600 --> 01:46:16,759
Speaker 5: And then look at what happened when when Sean Payton

2251
01:46:16,840 --> 01:46:19,760
Speaker 5: came to Denver it was, Oh, the Broncers are gonna

2252
01:46:19,760 --> 01:46:21,760
Speaker 5: be great. When John Gruden went to the Raiders, it

2253
01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:24,800
Speaker 5: was all the Raiders gonna be great when you can

2254
01:46:24,800 --> 01:46:27,080
Speaker 5: go all the way back, when big name coaches go back.

2255
01:46:27,120 --> 01:46:29,439
Speaker 5: When Joe Gibbs came back to Washington, it was, oh,

2256
01:46:29,439 --> 01:46:32,160
Speaker 5: there's gonna be great. Like there is an adjustment I

2257
01:46:32,200 --> 01:46:35,000
Speaker 5: think in the modern NFL where every time a coach

2258
01:46:35,080 --> 01:46:37,400
Speaker 5: comes in they say they're gonna be great, then they

2259
01:46:37,439 --> 01:46:40,320
Speaker 5: watched the team be mediocre, and then the following offseason

2260
01:46:40,360 --> 01:46:42,000
Speaker 5: they cut it and it's now it's going to be

2261
01:46:42,120 --> 01:46:44,439
Speaker 5: my football team. That's just the process. I think the

2262
01:46:44,520 --> 01:46:46,439
Speaker 5: Chargers long term are gonna be a very good.

2263
01:46:46,280 --> 01:46:46,720
Speaker 3: Part of it.

2264
01:46:46,760 --> 01:46:49,640
Speaker 2: But I think that the only thing you're overlooking is

2265
01:46:49,840 --> 01:46:52,720
Speaker 2: and it's fair when you address the roster, but I

2266
01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:55,479
Speaker 2: think you're too far on the other side. Like now,

2267
01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:59,120
Speaker 2: maybe it's maybe I'm I'm I over love Herbert, but

2268
01:46:59,840 --> 01:47:02,840
Speaker 2: I I think I think hardball is going to put

2269
01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:05,480
Speaker 2: him in his position to succeed.

2270
01:47:06,400 --> 01:47:09,760
Speaker 6: I agree. I mean, this is it's like, it's it's

2271
01:47:09,800 --> 01:47:12,120
Speaker 6: Greg Roman, it's the it's it's the the Andrew look

2272
01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:14,519
Speaker 6: at Stanford. Where as great as he was, those were

2273
01:47:14,600 --> 01:47:16,679
Speaker 6: run first teams, and they took a lot of pressure

2274
01:47:16,680 --> 01:47:18,479
Speaker 6: off of Luck. Now Luck had you know, his magical

2275
01:47:18,479 --> 01:47:20,479
Speaker 6: moments as well. I remember a big comeback win against

2276
01:47:20,560 --> 01:47:23,360
Speaker 6: USC at the Coliseum where they were down big, So

2277
01:47:23,400 --> 01:47:26,040
Speaker 6: he had his moments. But they're also like to to

2278
01:47:26,240 --> 01:47:28,720
Speaker 6: to Anthony's point, putting him in positions to succeed, which

2279
01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:31,760
Speaker 6: I don't believe the previous coaching staff really did and

2280
01:47:31,800 --> 01:47:34,639
Speaker 6: didn't he favors for him in that situation. It's also

2281
01:47:34,720 --> 01:47:38,479
Speaker 6: not the strongest division. Denver's basically is clearly in the rebuilt.

2282
01:47:38,880 --> 01:47:41,000
Speaker 6: The Raiders I think will be will be decent. We'll

2283
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:42,680
Speaker 6: see exactly what they turned into right now at the

2284
01:47:42,720 --> 01:47:44,920
Speaker 6: women of last year in Kansas City is Kansas City,

2285
01:47:44,960 --> 01:47:47,920
Speaker 6: but it's certainly not insurmountable. I don't think it's crazy

2286
01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:49,120
Speaker 6: to say that the Charge is going to be in

2287
01:47:49,120 --> 01:47:51,920
Speaker 6: the race for a wildcard spot right now.

2288
01:47:51,960 --> 01:47:56,480
Speaker 5: According to our lads, the depth chart has the starting

2289
01:47:56,600 --> 01:48:00,880
Speaker 5: wide receivers Josh Palmer, Quinton Johnson, Lad McConkey.

2290
01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:03,120
Speaker 1: Like that, who's he throwing to?

2291
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:04,920
Speaker 6: I don't know who to started running back throw to now.

2292
01:48:04,920 --> 01:48:07,360
Speaker 6: I'm not comparing Russell Herberts and Tom Brady. But I'm

2293
01:48:07,400 --> 01:48:09,680
Speaker 6: just saying, like you didn't have even look when it

2294
01:48:09,800 --> 01:48:11,920
Speaker 6: first You're in San Francisco when he got there, and

2295
01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:13,840
Speaker 6: the and the forty nine ers were also ran for

2296
01:48:13,880 --> 01:48:16,439
Speaker 6: a decade, and Jim Harball turned down around instantly. He

2297
01:48:16,479 --> 01:48:18,800
Speaker 6: had Alex Smith, who everybody said was a bust. Who

2298
01:48:18,840 --> 01:48:21,080
Speaker 6: was he throwing to at that point in time? The

2299
01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:25,000
Speaker 6: coaching mentality, uh, the thought process, I think all of

2300
01:48:25,040 --> 01:48:27,519
Speaker 6: that matters. We're bringing in a new mentality and a

2301
01:48:27,560 --> 01:48:30,080
Speaker 6: new coaching staff in a new front office. I think

2302
01:48:30,080 --> 01:48:31,439
Speaker 6: we're under selling it a little bit.

2303
01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:32,400
Speaker 1: And JK.

2304
01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:35,240
Speaker 5: Dobbins and Gus Edwards are your two starting running backs

2305
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:37,719
Speaker 5: right now? Like, does that strike the fear of God

2306
01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:41,080
Speaker 5: and anybody? I just like, look, I think they're gonna

2307
01:48:41,080 --> 01:48:43,679
Speaker 5: be They're gonna be fine eventually. But you're talking about

2308
01:48:43,680 --> 01:48:46,719
Speaker 5: too many roster holes. Too many roster holes. The Chiefs

2309
01:48:46,760 --> 01:48:50,640
Speaker 5: will beat him twice then, even if they split with

2310
01:48:50,640 --> 01:48:52,920
Speaker 5: the Broncos or Raiders, that's four losses out of the gate.

2311
01:48:53,120 --> 01:48:56,200
Speaker 5: That it's four losses without even thinking. So yeah, go

2312
01:48:56,320 --> 01:48:56,560
Speaker 5: through it.

2313
01:48:56,680 --> 01:48:58,920
Speaker 3: You have your schedule in front of you. I do

2314
01:48:59,120 --> 01:49:00,800
Speaker 3: me ship here.

2315
01:49:01,040 --> 01:49:06,320
Speaker 9: They're opening against Vegas at home wait open against Vegas, right,

2316
01:49:06,439 --> 01:49:08,240
Speaker 9: and then you're on the road back to back weeks

2317
01:49:08,240 --> 01:49:11,360
Speaker 9: at Carolina, at Pittsburgh, and.

2318
01:49:11,760 --> 01:49:14,400
Speaker 6: Then Kansas City before you had Twitcher bye week. Those

2319
01:49:14,439 --> 01:49:17,160
Speaker 6: are your first four games Raiders at home, at Carolina,

2320
01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:20,040
Speaker 6: at Pittsburgh, Kansas City, going.

2321
01:49:19,880 --> 01:49:23,160
Speaker 3: To go to and to or or one most likely

2322
01:49:23,200 --> 01:49:24,559
Speaker 3: one and three at best two and two.

2323
01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:26,200
Speaker 6: All right, so you come out of your buy, you

2324
01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:27,960
Speaker 6: have let's say one three to go with.

2325
01:49:28,200 --> 01:49:29,640
Speaker 5: I had him at three and one. I think I

2326
01:49:29,640 --> 01:49:31,799
Speaker 5: think they beat Pittsburgh. I think they beat the Raiders.

2327
01:49:32,040 --> 01:49:34,200
Speaker 5: They beat the Raiders in so far every time, and

2328
01:49:34,280 --> 01:49:36,160
Speaker 5: they beat those, they'll split with the Raiders.

2329
01:49:36,280 --> 01:49:39,200
Speaker 6: Carolina should be a given, so you're sire given and

2330
01:49:39,240 --> 01:49:41,280
Speaker 6: their only loss being Kansas City in the first quarter

2331
01:49:41,320 --> 01:49:41,799
Speaker 6: of the season.

2332
01:49:42,240 --> 01:49:45,040
Speaker 2: So I think that I think they're two with two,

2333
01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:48,280
Speaker 2: like I was trying to give you. Yeah, because Pittsburgh

2334
01:49:48,360 --> 01:49:52,080
Speaker 2: is better than the games in Pittsburgh, right, it.

2335
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:57,040
Speaker 6: Is in Pittsburgh. Yes, Pittsburgh am Pacific kick or was

2336
01:49:57,080 --> 01:49:59,519
Speaker 6: even splitting between Vegas and or Pittsburgh. They can lose

2337
01:49:59,560 --> 01:50:02,200
Speaker 6: one of those, right, So then you're at Denver and

2338
01:50:02,280 --> 01:50:04,760
Speaker 6: at Arizona the following weeks.

2339
01:50:04,479 --> 01:50:06,760
Speaker 3: Coming out of your by, all right, three and three.

2340
01:50:07,360 --> 01:50:09,479
Speaker 6: Follow that up with a home game against the Saints,

2341
01:50:09,479 --> 01:50:11,200
Speaker 6: and then you're at Cleveland.

2342
01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:12,479
Speaker 3: Four and four.

2343
01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:15,280
Speaker 6: Okay, I'll give you four and four back to back

2344
01:50:15,439 --> 01:50:21,040
Speaker 6: to back home games. Tennessee Cincinnati, Baltimore. Baltimore is a

2345
01:50:21,080 --> 01:50:21,599
Speaker 6: Monday night.

2346
01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:23,400
Speaker 3: But there's three home games in a row.

2347
01:50:23,520 --> 01:50:26,519
Speaker 6: Three home games in a row, Tennessee, Cincinnati, Baltimore.

2348
01:50:26,600 --> 01:50:27,879
Speaker 3: I mean the Tennessee.

2349
01:50:27,880 --> 01:50:30,040
Speaker 1: They lose Cincinnati, they lose to Baltimore.

2350
01:50:30,080 --> 01:50:32,719
Speaker 2: Okay, let me ask you a question. You're at home

2351
01:50:32,840 --> 01:50:36,880
Speaker 2: three games. It's not out of a question. They go

2352
01:50:37,200 --> 01:50:39,559
Speaker 2: and cheering one for the three home.

2353
01:50:40,080 --> 01:50:43,639
Speaker 5: If the Bengals aren't elite this year with Joe Burrow,

2354
01:50:43,680 --> 01:50:47,120
Speaker 5: then the entire thing is falling falling apart, right if

2355
01:50:47,360 --> 01:50:49,400
Speaker 5: given the fact that they've kept everybody, like if they

2356
01:50:49,439 --> 01:50:51,200
Speaker 5: thought they weren't in a Super Bowl window, they don't

2357
01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:54,400
Speaker 5: keep t Higgins for one year rental, right, So that

2358
01:50:54,400 --> 01:50:56,519
Speaker 5: that one, to me is Cincinnati is going to I

2359
01:50:56,520 --> 01:50:58,320
Speaker 5: think Cincinnati is going to be one of the dominant

2360
01:50:58,320 --> 01:51:01,479
Speaker 5: teams in the AFC. And even though the Ravens are

2361
01:51:01,479 --> 01:51:05,400
Speaker 5: certainly dealing with their own sort of rebuild, in some ways,

2362
01:51:05,960 --> 01:51:07,920
Speaker 5: the Ravens are still a better team than the Chargers

2363
01:51:07,960 --> 01:51:09,519
Speaker 5: on paper today.

2364
01:51:09,240 --> 01:51:11,519
Speaker 6: Okay, they certainly have questions about Cincinnati's run game, but

2365
01:51:11,560 --> 01:51:13,000
Speaker 6: we can get to that at a certain point later

2366
01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:15,280
Speaker 6: as well. You come so you come out of that

2367
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:16,479
Speaker 6: three game stretch of home, so.

2368
01:51:16,560 --> 01:51:19,480
Speaker 3: Either five and six or six and five we have, Okay.

2369
01:51:19,160 --> 01:51:22,240
Speaker 6: Correct, Now you get to week thirteen at Atlanta at

2370
01:51:22,320 --> 01:51:24,960
Speaker 6: Kansas City, back to back weeks, Kansas City Sunday night.

2371
01:51:25,040 --> 01:51:26,000
Speaker 3: I think that's just split.

2372
01:51:26,280 --> 01:51:28,639
Speaker 5: Okay, I think they lose both of them, but go ahead,

2373
01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:32,280
Speaker 5: really the Falcons, Yeah, the Falcons have a company.

2374
01:51:32,040 --> 01:51:34,720
Speaker 2: All right, So let's let's let's split the difference there.

2375
01:51:34,760 --> 01:51:40,240
Speaker 2: So if you we had them, if you were negative

2376
01:51:40,280 --> 01:51:43,240
Speaker 2: on the home games one and two, then you got

2377
01:51:43,280 --> 01:51:47,840
Speaker 2: to call to split, all right, So they would.

2378
01:51:47,560 --> 01:51:50,920
Speaker 1: Be six six and seven right now?

2379
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:55,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, Okay, December fifteenth at home against Tampa followed

2380
01:51:55,200 --> 01:51:57,439
Speaker 6: by December twenty second at home against Denver.

2381
01:51:58,560 --> 01:52:00,000
Speaker 3: See, I see that's that's.

2382
01:52:00,040 --> 01:52:03,160
Speaker 1: A win win, that's I mean Tampa.

2383
01:52:03,360 --> 01:52:05,559
Speaker 5: I will give him the home win over Tampa, but

2384
01:52:05,680 --> 01:52:07,320
Speaker 5: I think they end up split with Dember and I

2385
01:52:07,320 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 5: gave them the win earlier with Denver, so I'll give

2386
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:10,800
Speaker 5: him one win, one loss.

2387
01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:12,880
Speaker 6: And you close the regular season at New England. So

2388
01:52:12,920 --> 01:52:15,040
Speaker 6: that's gonna be a cold weather game for LA team

2389
01:52:15,080 --> 01:52:16,680
Speaker 6: going out east, so that's gonna be tough. And then

2390
01:52:16,720 --> 01:52:19,439
Speaker 6: you close at Las Vegas. Those are your last two games.

2391
01:52:19,479 --> 01:52:21,160
Speaker 1: And I'm giving them a split with the Raiders.

2392
01:52:21,240 --> 01:52:23,040
Speaker 5: And I gave them the first game in that so

2393
01:52:23,520 --> 01:52:26,200
Speaker 5: that got them to I mean, that process got them to.

2394
01:52:26,240 --> 01:52:30,680
Speaker 2: So you got him at so you got him at

2395
01:52:30,680 --> 01:52:33,120
Speaker 2: eight and at eight and nine.

2396
01:52:34,120 --> 01:52:38,880
Speaker 5: I got him at seven and ten. I was keeping

2397
01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:40,680
Speaker 5: the little markers here. I got him at seven and ten.

2398
01:52:40,800 --> 01:52:43,720
Speaker 2: You got them at seven in ten, Wow, and they're

2399
01:52:43,760 --> 01:52:47,120
Speaker 2: over on there's nine, eight and a half, eight and

2400
01:52:47,160 --> 01:52:47,639
Speaker 2: a half.

2401
01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:48,440
Speaker 3: Wow.

2402
01:52:49,880 --> 01:52:50,160
Speaker 6: Wow.

2403
01:52:50,360 --> 01:52:54,000
Speaker 2: Because right now I have him, I see them like

2404
01:52:54,120 --> 01:53:01,040
Speaker 2: at eight right, like order line eight right. So yeah, yeah,

2405
01:53:01,200 --> 01:53:03,680
Speaker 2: it's good. It's a spot on number. I'll tell you

2406
01:53:03,680 --> 01:53:04,040
Speaker 2: that much.

2407
01:53:04,160 --> 01:53:04,479
Speaker 6: Sure.

2408
01:53:04,720 --> 01:53:06,040
Speaker 1: And I just understand like that.

2409
01:53:06,080 --> 01:53:08,680
Speaker 5: I wouldn't be surprised this year if, like I know,

2410
01:53:08,720 --> 01:53:10,280
Speaker 5: we just went through the schedule game. But when it

2411
01:53:10,280 --> 01:53:12,559
Speaker 5: all plays itself out in my mind, if I'm just saying,

2412
01:53:12,560 --> 01:53:14,920
Speaker 5: like where are these teams? I think the Raiders are

2413
01:53:14,920 --> 01:53:17,599
Speaker 5: a seven win team this year. I think the Chargers

2414
01:53:17,640 --> 01:53:19,519
Speaker 5: are a six win team, and I think the Broncos

2415
01:53:19,520 --> 01:53:24,200
Speaker 5: are a five win I think, yeah.

2416
01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:25,160
Speaker 3: Wow, that's wow.

2417
01:53:25,600 --> 01:53:30,920
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, all right, we gotta take a quick

2418
01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:32,640
Speaker 2: we have to take a quick t o.

2419
01:53:33,640 --> 01:53:35,519
Speaker 3: But I love this, man, we got, I got, I

2420
01:53:35,560 --> 01:53:35,840
Speaker 3: love this.

2421
01:53:35,960 --> 01:53:38,479
Speaker 2: I have another question when you think about do you

2422
01:53:38,800 --> 01:53:42,400
Speaker 2: prefer because you guys mentioned how much you like the

2423
01:53:42,800 --> 01:53:46,599
Speaker 2: or the one o'clock sports bar, there is a push

2424
01:53:47,400 --> 01:53:53,639
Speaker 2: to look at these games as singular units, right and

2425
01:53:53,760 --> 01:53:58,439
Speaker 2: spreading them out almost like the NCAA does with the

2426
01:53:58,560 --> 01:54:02,599
Speaker 2: tournament where you have you stagger the starts, you try

2427
01:54:02,640 --> 01:54:06,800
Speaker 2: to do, you try to make them singular units. Would

2428
01:54:06,800 --> 01:54:10,519
Speaker 2: you guys be against that? And I'm going to dive

2429
01:54:10,520 --> 01:54:11,559
Speaker 2: into that with you guys.

2430
01:54:11,720 --> 01:54:12,000
Speaker 3: Next.

Speaker 1: Abbay, I hate it. I hate it so much.

2453
01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:36,240
Speaker 5: I can't even put into words how much I hate

2454
01:55:36,600 --> 01:55:39,480
Speaker 5: the concept of taking away the most beautiful thing about

2455
01:55:39,520 --> 01:55:41,760
Speaker 5: the NFL to me, which is the feeling you get

2456
01:55:41,920 --> 01:55:45,120
Speaker 5: when you're sitting there on a Sunday and everybody's watching

2457
01:55:45,160 --> 01:55:47,880
Speaker 5: it once when your group text is blowing up because somebody,

2458
01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:51,120
Speaker 5: your Giants fan is feeling heartbreak. Your your buddy there,

2459
01:55:51,360 --> 01:55:53,840
Speaker 5: but your other buddy that's over here, that's an Eagles fan,

2460
01:55:53,960 --> 01:55:56,800
Speaker 5: is feeling heartbreak, and then your Raiders fan, and you're

2461
01:55:56,840 --> 01:55:59,360
Speaker 5: just trying to get through it somehow, and your chiefs

2462
01:55:59,400 --> 01:56:02,200
Speaker 5: fans talk contrash in the same group thread, Like I

2463
01:56:02,440 --> 01:56:05,760
Speaker 5: that's the thing about Sundays that I crave. I want

2464
01:56:05,760 --> 01:56:09,800
Speaker 5: to balance schedule where frankly Sundays are are split in

2465
01:56:10,080 --> 01:56:11,920
Speaker 5: the one o'clock games of the four o'clock games. I

2466
01:56:11,960 --> 01:56:14,960
Speaker 5: want chaos all day long. I this is not a

2467
01:56:14,960 --> 01:56:18,120
Speaker 5: popular opinion. I think Sunday night football is such a

2468
01:56:18,200 --> 01:56:22,760
Speaker 5: letdown because, like I've spent all day around everybody feeling

2469
01:56:22,800 --> 01:56:25,360
Speaker 5: this vibe, in this energy, and then you get one

2470
01:56:25,400 --> 01:56:27,000
Speaker 5: game at the end of the night that you know,

2471
01:56:27,000 --> 01:56:28,720
Speaker 5: if you're a football fan, you're gonna watch it, but

2472
01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:30,880
Speaker 5: you may or may not have a rooting interest in

2473
01:56:30,920 --> 01:56:33,320
Speaker 5: it or a true care but you're gonna watch it.

2474
01:56:33,360 --> 01:56:35,160
Speaker 1: But it doesn't have the same vibe and energy.

2475
01:56:35,200 --> 01:56:38,400
Speaker 5: Man, in a fantasy football, gambling and group text world,

2476
01:56:38,760 --> 01:56:41,240
Speaker 5: I want all my games crammed in it once.

2477
01:56:41,280 --> 01:56:45,760
Speaker 2: Where we're The argument is is that you know most

2478
01:56:45,880 --> 01:56:51,400
Speaker 2: people you know they care about your team, so your team.

2479
01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:52,320
Speaker 3: Will be focused.

2480
01:56:52,360 --> 01:56:58,080
Speaker 2: Everybody's team will have its own slot and not be overshadowed.

2481
01:56:58,920 --> 01:57:01,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean, think about how many casual fans

2482
01:57:01,160 --> 01:57:02,960
Speaker 5: just walk into a sports bar on a Sunday because

2483
01:57:02,960 --> 01:57:05,240
Speaker 5: football is on. Are they gonna walk into that same

2484
01:57:05,280 --> 01:57:09,040
Speaker 5: sports bar on a Tuesday because the Titans are playing

2485
01:57:09,080 --> 01:57:10,960
Speaker 5: the Jacks. I keep pumping, you know, picking on the

2486
01:57:10,960 --> 01:57:13,280
Speaker 5: Titans and the Jacks. But like, let's be real, Like

2487
01:57:13,360 --> 01:57:14,800
Speaker 5: if if matters.

2488
01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:19,480
Speaker 2: As much as we rail against these other games, they

2489
01:57:19,520 --> 01:57:21,360
Speaker 2: do numbers.

2490
01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:25,240
Speaker 1: Sure, and you don't make they do real like they dwarf.

2491
01:57:25,640 --> 01:57:29,400
Speaker 2: We talked about this with the NBA, Like you know NFL,

2492
01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:33,400
Speaker 2: it was that Christmas Day games weren't great, game weren't

2493
01:57:33,400 --> 01:57:38,320
Speaker 2: great like matchups, and they trounced them. I think Denver

2494
01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:39,440
Speaker 2: was one of them.

2495
01:57:39,720 --> 01:57:40,400
Speaker 1: One hundred percent.

2496
01:57:40,480 --> 01:57:42,440
Speaker 5: You're right, And you know how much I always I

2497
01:57:42,520 --> 01:57:44,840
Speaker 5: always bring up the TV numbers. I love everything about

2498
01:57:44,840 --> 01:57:47,880
Speaker 5: the TV numbers. But in this situation, I just the

2499
01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:51,560
Speaker 5: group camaraderie, Like is it gonna be the same if

2500
01:57:51,600 --> 01:57:52,240
Speaker 5: you're sitting in it?

2501
01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:52,440
Speaker 3: Like.

2502
01:57:52,480 --> 01:57:54,680
Speaker 5: Part of the reason fantasy football, I think is so

2503
01:57:54,800 --> 01:57:58,800
Speaker 5: huge is that you set your lineup and then everybody's.

2504
01:57:58,240 --> 01:57:59,400
Speaker 1: Dialed in it at the same time.

2505
01:57:59,520 --> 01:58:02,560
Speaker 5: Part of the in fantasy baseball doesn't resonate as much,

2506
01:58:02,720 --> 01:58:04,200
Speaker 5: but you're somebody.

2507
01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:07,160
Speaker 2: Stretching eyeballs though and there, and if you're looking at

2508
01:58:07,160 --> 01:58:10,200
Speaker 2: it from another standpo where you go, well, why am

2509
01:58:10,200 --> 01:58:12,640
Speaker 2: I not? Why am I showing all these games at

2510
01:58:12,640 --> 01:58:17,760
Speaker 2: the same time, And we're I'm losing eyeballs because.

2511
01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:20,440
Speaker 3: We already know everybody's gonna watch. So what's different.

2512
01:58:20,440 --> 01:58:22,360
Speaker 2: You still have the same You're still gonna have to

2513
01:58:22,360 --> 01:58:25,200
Speaker 2: do the same thing, You're still gonna have the same fantasy.

2514
01:58:25,800 --> 01:58:29,120
Speaker 3: They're just gonna be more readily available to watch.

2515
01:58:30,200 --> 01:58:32,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I also look at all that and say, okay,

2516
01:58:32,840 --> 01:58:34,800
Speaker 5: number one, if you're spreading it out throughout the course

2517
01:58:34,800 --> 01:58:36,880
Speaker 5: of the week, you'll lose people's interests. Like, we live

2518
01:58:36,920 --> 01:58:40,120
Speaker 5: in such an add world that I saw a clip

2519
01:58:40,160 --> 01:58:42,640
Speaker 5: the other day of somebody talking about a movie that

2520
01:58:42,720 --> 01:58:46,520
Speaker 5: was tuned in turned in for Netflix, and at the time,

2521
01:58:46,600 --> 01:58:49,040
Speaker 5: Netflix rejected it and asked it to be re edited

2522
01:58:49,040 --> 01:58:52,080
Speaker 5: it because it was too complicated for a person to

2523
01:58:52,120 --> 01:58:54,160
Speaker 5: be on their phone while they're watching it. That was

2524
01:58:54,200 --> 01:58:57,960
Speaker 5: a real piece of feedback, like somebody nobody's actually watching,

2525
01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:00,000
Speaker 5: They're gonna be on their second screen, So this movie

2526
01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:04,680
Speaker 5: is too complicated. So like for me, if I start like, yeah,

2527
01:59:04,720 --> 01:59:05,520
Speaker 5: but that's that's.

2528
01:59:05,360 --> 01:59:11,000
Speaker 6: The Gods A good point though, But you talk about

2529
01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:13,080
Speaker 6: like you know why the NBA, why Major League Baseball,

2530
01:59:13,080 --> 01:59:15,240
Speaker 6: why some of these every day are multi game a

2531
01:59:15,280 --> 01:59:18,920
Speaker 6: week sports have lost popularity is because it's too ubiquitous,

2532
01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:20,680
Speaker 6: you know. And if you start spreading out and have

2533
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:23,640
Speaker 6: three NFL games every single night of the week, something

2534
01:59:23,680 --> 01:59:25,560
Speaker 6: is going to get lost eventually. Everybody. As much as

2535
01:59:25,600 --> 01:59:27,280
Speaker 6: we say we love the NFL, and all of us do,

2536
01:59:27,960 --> 01:59:30,440
Speaker 6: we're not going to commit six hours a day, every

2537
01:59:30,480 --> 01:59:33,000
Speaker 6: single day to watch every single NFL game. It's just

2538
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:33,320
Speaker 6: not pla.

2539
01:59:33,520 --> 01:59:35,080
Speaker 3: We already do it now, we don't.

2540
01:59:35,440 --> 01:59:37,720
Speaker 2: We don't have seven days a week, all day long

2541
01:59:38,120 --> 01:59:40,720
Speaker 2: day Monday Thursday.

2542
01:59:41,520 --> 01:59:46,640
Speaker 5: How often are we getting standalone games between terrible teams

2543
01:59:47,320 --> 01:59:48,720
Speaker 5: and that.

2544
01:59:48,280 --> 01:59:49,280
Speaker 3: People still watching?

2545
01:59:49,600 --> 01:59:50,080
Speaker 1: We all.

2546
01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:54,680
Speaker 6: It's not every night, it's not, and they will want it.

2547
01:59:55,360 --> 02:00:00,000
Speaker 3: Doesn't at a season that's in capsure.

2548
02:00:01,040 --> 02:00:04,520
Speaker 2: Even if you stretched it, you're still only going September

2549
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:06,400
Speaker 2: to end of February.

2550
02:00:07,440 --> 02:00:10,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, but if you end up getting you know, even if.

2551
02:00:10,680 --> 02:00:12,880
Speaker 3: You add another game, you only have eighteen games.

2552
02:00:13,680 --> 02:00:15,960
Speaker 5: If you end up getting the Pants Panthers on three

2553
02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:19,320
Speaker 5: straight Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday nights and they're terrible, nobody's gonna

2554
02:00:19,320 --> 02:00:20,080
Speaker 5: watch it eventually.

2555
02:00:22,520 --> 02:00:28,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, there is there are such a thing as too much,

2556
02:00:28,280 --> 02:00:29,800
Speaker 6: and that right there will be too much.

2557
02:00:29,960 --> 02:00:32,040

02:02:12,240 --> 02:02:17,120
Speaker 6: a hazy dude, we're heading for a showdown.

2590
02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:22,440

2599
02:02:46,040 --> 02:02:48,680
Speaker 5: of you were that used to winning world series. So like,

2600
02:02:48,720 --> 02:02:50,800
Speaker 5: I just you know, I just don't know how how

2601
02:02:50,920 --> 02:02:53,400
Speaker 5: how it's gonna go, you know, I mean it's just

2602
02:02:54,040 --> 02:02:58,120
Speaker 5: maybe the rich and storied history of World Series Championships

2603
02:02:58,120 --> 02:03:01,240

Speaker 5: I just I'm just here to make sure that there's

2605
02:03:04,320 --> 02:03:05,800
Speaker 5: there's peace and love between.

2606
02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:06,320
Speaker 1: You the two.

2607
02:03:06,560 --> 02:03:07,840
Speaker 6: First of all, that's riches fake.

2608
02:03:07,880 --> 02:03:12,120
Speaker 3: How about how about mister I'm jesting in my body now?

2609
02:03:12,280 --> 02:03:13,360
Speaker 6: Is water exactly?

2610
02:03:13,920 --> 02:03:15,800
Speaker 1: You know, the water makes me feisty.

2611
02:03:15,920 --> 02:03:20,120
Speaker 6: That's all that water exactly. Yeah. And by the way,

2612
02:03:20,280 --> 02:03:22,280
Speaker 6: the Doctors have a very riches story history with the

2613
02:03:22,280 --> 02:03:24,960
Speaker 6: World Series Championships. Now it may be a long, long, long,

2614
02:03:25,000 --> 02:03:27,280
Speaker 6: long time ago, but it is very very rich.

2615
02:03:28,200 --> 02:03:31,760
Speaker 5: Okay, well, let's just talk about your lifetime likes.

2616
02:03:31,640 --> 02:03:32,480
Speaker 1: You now you're doing.

2617
02:03:32,480 --> 02:03:34,080
Speaker 6: You're bringing up stuff that's not even necessary.

2618
02:03:34,200 --> 02:03:36,320
Speaker 5: I mean, this is what happens to Like, that's the

2619
02:03:36,400 --> 02:03:39,120
Speaker 5: number of times that Raiders fans bring up and I

2620
02:03:39,160 --> 02:03:41,240
Speaker 5: am one, right, and then Raiders fans bring up the

2621
02:03:41,280 --> 02:03:44,080
Speaker 5: past Super Bowls and I'm like, y'all, like I was

2622
02:03:44,120 --> 02:03:46,240
Speaker 5: a child when they won the last Super Bowl. So

2623
02:03:46,320 --> 02:03:48,200
Speaker 5: let's not see her and talk about the greatness of

2624
02:03:48,240 --> 02:03:51,080
Speaker 5: the seventies like it really matters in twenty twenty four.

2625
02:03:51,120 --> 02:03:54,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't, right, Yeah, you know that's.

2626
02:03:53,720 --> 02:03:55,560
Speaker 5: All like it's in a textbook. Now, you read it,

2627
02:03:55,600 --> 02:03:56,720
Speaker 5: you learn from it, and you move on.

2628
02:03:56,960 --> 02:03:59,200
Speaker 6: You know, I could talk about Marcus Sallen reversing Field

2629
02:03:59,280 --> 02:04:00,560
Speaker 6: on Washington all day long.

2630
02:04:00,680 --> 02:04:00,960
Speaker 1: You know what.

2631
02:04:01,040 --> 02:04:03,480
Speaker 6: I wasn't even born yet, so it's all from all

2632
02:04:03,520 --> 02:04:05,600
Speaker 6: from the archives, that's all I know it from.

2633
02:04:06,200 --> 02:04:09,040
Speaker 3: It's like the Cowboys. Did you see they they mocked

2634
02:04:09,040 --> 02:04:11,360
Speaker 3: themselves with the flip floone, the flip phone.

2635
02:04:12,320 --> 02:04:13,000
Speaker 1: I didn't see that.

2636
02:04:13,040 --> 02:04:13,920
Speaker 6: I didn't see that either.

2637
02:04:14,480 --> 02:04:16,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, so they put out a thing during the schedule.

2638
02:04:16,840 --> 02:04:19,400
Speaker 6: Everybody had their little schedule release montages. I did not

2639
02:04:19,400 --> 02:04:20,720
Speaker 6: get a chance to watch all of them.

2640
02:04:20,840 --> 02:04:23,800
Speaker 2: And if Cowboys had this flip floone thing get working

2641
02:04:24,640 --> 02:04:27,480
Speaker 2: and it's like, yeah, flip phone, last time you guys won,

2642
02:04:28,640 --> 02:04:29,920
Speaker 2: We're relevant.

2643
02:04:30,560 --> 02:04:32,600
Speaker 6: Wow, I would you know what that's I actually give

2644
02:04:32,680 --> 02:04:34,720
Speaker 6: kudos to the Cowboys were poking fun of themselves because

2645
02:04:34,760 --> 02:04:36,240
Speaker 6: usually they would not be the ones to do that.

2646
02:04:36,320 --> 02:04:40,240
Speaker 3: So I don't know if they meant to do that really, So.

2647
02:04:40,480 --> 02:04:42,360
Speaker 5: You think it was an accidental self poke?

2648
02:04:43,040 --> 02:04:49,720
Speaker 2: Yesoke, right, that's yeah interesting, Yeah, I think it was

2649
02:04:49,720 --> 02:04:52,000
Speaker 2: a flub. No, it was like the chargers, by the way,

2650
02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:55,360
Speaker 2: to charge your schedule release that was phenomenal.

2651
02:04:55,400 --> 02:04:56,520
Speaker 6: That one was really good.

2652
02:04:56,840 --> 02:04:58,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's always good. Yeah.

2653
02:04:58,160 --> 02:05:03,320
Speaker 5: They always do a absolute spectacular job, the absolutely spectacular

2654
02:05:03,400 --> 02:05:04,240
Speaker 5: job with those videos.

2655
02:05:04,240 --> 02:05:05,200
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that.

2656
02:05:06,080 --> 02:05:08,480
Speaker 2: All right, So let me ask you out because we've

2657
02:05:08,520 --> 02:05:12,960
Speaker 2: been discussing this, this schedule and how the thing is presented.

2658
02:05:14,080 --> 02:05:16,800
Speaker 3: I find it so interesting for years. I bet Figgie's here.

2659
02:05:17,160 --> 02:05:19,320
Speaker 2: Now you're still gonna go against me, even though now

2660
02:05:19,360 --> 02:05:23,920
Speaker 2: I've been proving correct over the years, they've implemented the

2661
02:05:24,000 --> 02:05:26,520
Speaker 2: Gargato plan many times.

2662
02:05:26,640 --> 02:05:28,720
Speaker 3: You've seen you're a witness.

2663
02:05:28,280 --> 02:05:31,960
Speaker 6: Fig Well in some senses, yes.

2664
02:05:32,040 --> 02:05:34,200
Speaker 2: In some senses. First of all, they're gonna go to

2665
02:05:34,200 --> 02:05:38,280
Speaker 2: eighteen games. I said that years ago, fifteen years ago.

2666
02:05:38,440 --> 02:05:40,680
Speaker 6: I don't know. I don't think I or even Lincoln

2667
02:05:40,760 --> 02:05:42,840
Speaker 6: fought you on that, because you know, it's it's all

2668
02:05:42,840 --> 02:05:43,760
Speaker 6: about my guys.

2669
02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:50,080
Speaker 2: Every week we were should or should every double hand games.

2670
02:05:50,120 --> 02:05:52,360
Speaker 1: Look, I'm on it, I'm in on eighteen games. I

2671
02:05:52,440 --> 02:05:54,440
Speaker 1: take it to twenty. I'm good to taking its twenty.

2672
02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:57,240
Speaker 6: I don't care give me money, but as long as

2673
02:05:57,320 --> 02:05:59,280
Speaker 6: networks are willing to give them money for more inventory,

2674
02:05:59,280 --> 02:06:02,040
Speaker 6: the NFL is gonna getting it that. I've always said

2675
02:06:02,040 --> 02:06:03,680
Speaker 6: that I have no problem with that whatsoever.

2676
02:06:04,080 --> 02:06:06,960
Speaker 5: As long as the majority of the players in the

2677
02:06:07,080 --> 02:06:09,920
Speaker 5: NFL can make more money off of it, all of

2678
02:06:09,960 --> 02:06:11,920
Speaker 5: the things that we spend all of this time talking

2679
02:06:11,920 --> 02:06:14,840
Speaker 5: about with health and safety will never be prioritized. They're

2680
02:06:14,840 --> 02:06:17,760
Speaker 5: going to prioritize paychecks. Like I I hear what. In

2681
02:06:17,840 --> 02:06:19,560
Speaker 5: the minute I say twenty games, people are like, what

2682
02:06:19,560 --> 02:06:22,120
Speaker 5: about health and safety? Okay, I will care as much

2683
02:06:22,120 --> 02:06:24,480
Speaker 5: about health and safety as the players do if they

2684
02:06:24,520 --> 02:06:26,680
Speaker 5: ever choose to actually make that the hill they will

2685
02:06:26,720 --> 02:06:29,720
Speaker 5: die on in the collective bargaining agreement until the players

2686
02:06:29,800 --> 02:06:32,480
Speaker 5: fight for themselves for that at a level that truly

2687
02:06:32,640 --> 02:06:35,400
Speaker 5: changes health and safety. I'm not gonna worry about it,

2688
02:06:35,440 --> 02:06:36,760
Speaker 5: like that's up to them to fight.

2689
02:06:36,600 --> 02:06:42,480
Speaker 3: For Yeah, I no, I hear you. I hear you. Now.

2690
02:06:42,520 --> 02:06:45,840
Speaker 6: The Garganel plan of having like multiple NFL games every

2691
02:06:45,880 --> 02:06:48,720
Speaker 6: single salutary night of the week, now, granted they have

2692
02:06:48,800 --> 02:06:51,520
Speaker 6: increased their inventory, but it's also specialized. Like they're not

2693
02:06:51,560 --> 02:06:54,800
Speaker 6: having NFL games every single Friday. They're not having them

2694
02:06:54,840 --> 02:06:57,360
Speaker 6: every single Wednesday or every Tuesday.

2695
02:06:57,840 --> 02:06:59,840
Speaker 3: I never said that like they do. They should do

2696
02:06:59,880 --> 02:07:00,560
Speaker 3: it every day.

2697
02:07:01,040 --> 02:07:04,440
Speaker 2: I've said there should be specially times exactly this, but

2698
02:07:04,520 --> 02:07:06,000
Speaker 2: let me let me throw this at you. All right,

2699
02:07:07,640 --> 02:07:14,160
Speaker 2: what about doing away with the one pm ten a

2700
02:07:14,400 --> 02:07:21,040
Speaker 2: m kickoff times and skeet and then you start you

2701
02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:29,120
Speaker 2: basically you started earlier, like at noon on the east,

2702
02:07:29,320 --> 02:07:31,320
Speaker 2: and you stagger the kickoff.

2703
02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:36,760
Speaker 6: Times, so like you still get all your games twelve

2704
02:07:36,840 --> 02:07:39,080
Speaker 6: forty kick one. Yeah, kids still get.

2705
02:07:38,960 --> 02:07:42,280
Speaker 2: All your games, but they're not going to be played

2706
02:07:42,320 --> 02:07:47,360
Speaker 2: at the same exact time, so the stagger, so they're

2707
02:07:47,360 --> 02:07:49,360
Speaker 2: not all going to halftime at the same time.

2708
02:07:50,040 --> 02:07:53,040
Speaker 1: They're not all I don't hate this.

2709
02:07:53,040 --> 02:07:55,440
Speaker 3: This is I say. I thought you might like it.

2710
02:07:57,040 --> 02:07:59,120
Speaker 5: Now you're stretching out my seat because the thing of

2711
02:07:59,160 --> 02:08:01,400
Speaker 5: it is, like I said earlier, here's what I hate.

2712
02:08:01,640 --> 02:08:03,360
Speaker 5: I hate when I've been in the bar supporting all

2713
02:08:03,400 --> 02:08:05,760
Speaker 5: of you guys, and then all of a sudden your

2714
02:08:05,840 --> 02:08:07,760
Speaker 5: game's in and you leave me to sit at the

2715
02:08:07,760 --> 02:08:10,600
Speaker 5: bar alone just to frank and misery while the works.

2716
02:08:10,920 --> 02:08:13,280
Speaker 6: Let me watch the Raider of Cardinal one oh five

2717
02:08:13,320 --> 02:08:15,200
Speaker 6: kick that no one else cares about, yeah.

2718
02:08:15,080 --> 02:08:18,040
Speaker 5: One hundred per like it's it's lonely in the sports

2719
02:08:18,040 --> 02:08:21,160
Speaker 5: bar in the afternoon. So I like this plan because

2720
02:08:21,160 --> 02:08:22,919
Speaker 5: if we spread them all out throughout the course.

2721
02:08:22,680 --> 02:08:23,080
Speaker 3: Of the day.

2722
02:08:23,240 --> 02:08:25,720
Speaker 1: Then you don't have a good even flow throughout the course.

2723
02:08:25,560 --> 02:08:27,760
Speaker 3: Of the game starts.

2724
02:08:28,000 --> 02:08:29,960
Speaker 6: Now, maybe it won't matter. I know what the NFL

2725
02:08:30,000 --> 02:08:32,879
Speaker 6: does now we talk about primetime games. They do consider

2726
02:08:33,120 --> 02:08:36,040
Speaker 6: the four to twenty five kick of a particular game

2727
02:08:36,080 --> 02:08:38,240
Speaker 6: every single week to be a primetime ish short of

2728
02:08:38,280 --> 02:08:40,600
Speaker 6: game for one of the networks. So if you're staggering

2729
02:08:40,680 --> 02:08:43,920
Speaker 6: a bunch of kicks, how do you isolate a marquee

2730
02:08:43,960 --> 02:08:46,680
Speaker 6: matchup for an afternoon part of the window.

2731
02:08:46,880 --> 02:08:49,360
Speaker 2: Well, you're still going to have your central games, like

2732
02:08:49,400 --> 02:08:53,320
Speaker 2: you're like Fox or CBS has a double header, right,

2733
02:08:53,800 --> 02:08:55,800
Speaker 2: one in four to twenty five will still be one

2734
02:08:55,800 --> 02:08:56,680
Speaker 2: in four to twenty five.

2735
02:08:56,720 --> 02:08:59,400
Speaker 6: But the other game, all the other games are floaters.

2736
02:08:59,640 --> 02:09:02,000
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, And why not why not have four to

2737
02:09:02,040 --> 02:09:05,360
Speaker 5: twenty five be the last kick of the whole day

2738
02:09:05,360 --> 02:09:06,640
Speaker 5: window until Sunday night?

2739
02:09:06,720 --> 02:09:08,560
Speaker 1: You know, so like you could start.

2740
02:09:08,440 --> 02:09:11,760
Speaker 2: I say you start earlier, right, like you started like

2741
02:09:11,840 --> 02:09:14,040
Speaker 2: a big new like we do the big New kickoff

2742
02:09:14,080 --> 02:09:16,000
Speaker 2: on Fox for college football?

2743
02:09:16,040 --> 02:09:17,240
Speaker 3: Why not do with the NFL.

2744
02:09:17,520 --> 02:09:19,720
Speaker 5: Now you're gonna get You're gonna get yourself in trouble

2745
02:09:19,760 --> 02:09:20,560
Speaker 5: down on the Bible belt.

2746
02:09:20,640 --> 02:09:21,360
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.

2747
02:09:21,400 --> 02:09:25,000
Speaker 5: When I moved to Nashville, right when the Titans got there,

2748
02:09:25,320 --> 02:09:27,920
Speaker 5: it was amazing because at the time you couldn't even

2749
02:09:27,920 --> 02:09:32,240
Speaker 5: buy alcohol on Sundays in Tennessee. And then they were like, well, wait,

2750
02:09:32,280 --> 02:09:34,480
Speaker 5: now we got a football team, so we should probably

2751
02:09:34,520 --> 02:09:37,120
Speaker 5: allow that. And then, like churches had to move their

2752
02:09:37,160 --> 02:09:40,120
Speaker 5: service times to get you move, you moved football back

2753
02:09:40,120 --> 02:09:42,440
Speaker 5: an hour on Sundays. The entire southern part of the

2754
02:09:42,480 --> 02:09:44,160
Speaker 5: country is going to have to, like you're going to

2755
02:09:44,200 --> 02:09:46,720
Speaker 5: start having eight nine, ten am sermon so that people

2756
02:09:46,840 --> 02:09:49,400
Speaker 5: can get into their their football early enough. Gonna have

2757
02:09:49,440 --> 02:09:51,720
Speaker 5: to change some blue laws on when you can buy alcohol.

2758
02:09:51,800 --> 02:09:55,080
Speaker 5: Like some You're gonna get some pushback from the Bible belt.

2759
02:09:55,120 --> 02:09:59,560
Speaker 6: Brother, Well you know, listen, it works on Saturdays, so yeah,

2760
02:10:00,120 --> 02:10:01,560
Speaker 6: is just rolling through the night. Why not?

2761
02:10:01,640 --> 02:10:01,880
Speaker 3: You know.

2762
02:10:02,320 --> 02:10:04,920
Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you. But here's the thing. My

2763
02:10:05,400 --> 02:10:10,840
Speaker 2: whole belief system is nobody's gonna like this, but football

2764
02:10:11,000 --> 02:10:16,120
Speaker 2: is the new church. Like sports builds churches. And when

2765
02:10:16,160 --> 02:10:18,520
Speaker 2: I say church, I don't mean worship of God, whatever

2766
02:10:18,560 --> 02:10:21,280
Speaker 2: your faith is, your faith is, But what I mean

2767
02:10:21,400 --> 02:10:23,200
Speaker 2: is congregation and community.

2768
02:10:24,440 --> 02:10:26,920
Speaker 6: I mean in any senses, it is more in the

2769
02:10:26,920 --> 02:10:28,680
Speaker 6: Bible Belt, especially for college football.

2770
02:10:28,720 --> 02:10:31,240
Speaker 2: Well that's my point, Like, that's why the Bible Belt's

2771
02:10:31,280 --> 02:10:35,280
Speaker 2: with me Bible Belt site, because all I'm trying to

2772
02:10:35,320 --> 02:10:42,080
Speaker 2: do is promote community through football. It's community, it's brotherhood,

2773
02:10:42,160 --> 02:10:48,680
Speaker 2: it's love of thy neighbor, right, making memories good, you know, wholesome,

2774
02:10:49,280 --> 02:10:53,040
Speaker 2: eat some barbecue, you know, hang out on a Sunday

2775
02:10:53,080 --> 02:10:55,520
Speaker 2: together and watch.

2776
02:10:55,400 --> 02:10:59,440
Speaker 5: There were there were churches when the Titans first started playing,

2777
02:10:59,440 --> 02:11:02,640
Speaker 5: because again they weren't used to Sunday services. That would

2778
02:11:02,720 --> 02:11:05,560
Speaker 5: just put a huge screen right behind the pastor and

2779
02:11:05,600 --> 02:11:08,160
Speaker 5: as soon as he finished with the thank you, you know,

2780
02:11:08,400 --> 02:11:11,360
Speaker 5: thank you, good nights, all of a sudden, the game

2781
02:11:11,400 --> 02:11:11,760
Speaker 5: comes on.

2782
02:11:13,960 --> 02:11:18,600
Speaker 6: That's incredible. Stop something that's great, Well, stay.

2783
02:11:18,400 --> 02:11:21,800
Speaker 2: And hang out and watch football. It's beautiful. And I

2784
02:11:21,920 --> 02:11:27,120
Speaker 2: believe sports is our savior. Like sports, like I talk

2785
02:11:27,160 --> 02:11:30,680
Speaker 2: a lot about youth sports. And you know, someday when

2786
02:11:30,720 --> 02:11:36,760
Speaker 2: Oliver he's playing you know, travel baseball and football and basketball,

2787
02:11:37,520 --> 02:11:38,400
Speaker 2: figure you'll know this.

2788
02:11:38,840 --> 02:11:43,320
Speaker 3: But the idea, Fitzie, is that you know, when you.

2789
02:11:43,320 --> 02:11:46,720
Speaker 2: Have these families get together, like we had a tournament

2790
02:11:46,800 --> 02:11:49,920
Speaker 2: last week and it was Mother's Day. Right now, you think,

2791
02:11:50,000 --> 02:11:54,240
Speaker 2: oh my god, Mother's Day. Right, So these moms had

2792
02:11:54,280 --> 02:12:00,720
Speaker 2: to spend their Sunday Mother's Day afternoon at a ball field.

2793
02:12:01,960 --> 02:12:06,920
Speaker 2: Now they we had champagne, so they had Bellini's and

2794
02:12:06,960 --> 02:12:12,200
Speaker 2: Mimosa's and they had pastries and you know, I mean

2795
02:12:12,240 --> 02:12:14,640
Speaker 2: it was it was a beautiful moment. Like it was

2796
02:12:14,680 --> 02:12:18,120
Speaker 2: like all these families are together, and you know, the

2797
02:12:18,240 --> 02:12:22,320
Speaker 2: ladies had their thing and the pictures and flowers and

2798
02:12:22,960 --> 02:12:24,800
Speaker 2: you know, and we just took it to the field

2799
02:12:25,600 --> 02:12:27,840
Speaker 2: and it was a beautiful day of together this in

2800
02:12:27,880 --> 02:12:30,080
Speaker 2: the community through baseball.

2801
02:12:30,080 --> 02:12:30,600
Speaker 3: I love that.

2802
02:12:31,520 --> 02:12:34,960
Speaker 1: I would not have anticipated that. In fact, I railed.

2803
02:12:35,000 --> 02:12:37,760
Speaker 5: I'm the one person that's yelling about the Arena Football

2804
02:12:37,800 --> 02:12:41,000
Speaker 5: League put their decision to open their season during the

2805
02:12:41,000 --> 02:12:43,480
Speaker 5: weekend of the draft was stupid. And then a couple

2806
02:12:43,440 --> 02:12:45,960
Speaker 5: of weeks later, the Nashville Cats are like, come out

2807
02:12:46,000 --> 02:12:48,920
Speaker 5: for their their second home game, come out for Mother's Day.

2808
02:12:49,000 --> 02:12:51,200
Speaker 5: We're doing a two for one ticket special. I'm like,

2809
02:12:51,440 --> 02:12:53,320
Speaker 5: what kids going to their moms, like, Mom, let's go

2810
02:12:53,360 --> 02:12:54,600
Speaker 5: to Arena Football for.

2811
02:12:55,000 --> 02:12:56,600
Speaker 1: But what you're describing is a.

2812
02:12:56,520 --> 02:12:58,880
Speaker 5: Beautiful thing, though, Like, so what you're describing is this

2813
02:12:59,240 --> 02:13:00,919
Speaker 5: like beautif sense of community.

2814
02:13:01,120 --> 02:13:02,520
Speaker 1: And you're not wrong by the way.

2815
02:13:02,360 --> 02:13:07,600
Speaker 5: Like success for particularly for football teams, brings so many

2816
02:13:07,600 --> 02:13:09,960
Speaker 5: cities together. This is why high school football is such

2817
02:13:09,960 --> 02:13:11,760
Speaker 5: a big deal in so many parts of the country

2818
02:13:12,200 --> 02:13:15,600
Speaker 5: because the camaraderie it creates. It's why college football is

2819
02:13:15,600 --> 02:13:18,800
Speaker 5: what it is like, It's why, you know, certain certain

2820
02:13:19,080 --> 02:13:21,879
Speaker 5: pockets of the country you can look at certain weekends

2821
02:13:21,880 --> 02:13:24,800
Speaker 5: and just eliminate your social calendar because you know that

2822
02:13:24,800 --> 02:13:25,920
Speaker 5: that's what everybody is.

2823
02:13:25,920 --> 02:13:27,640
Speaker 1: Going to be doing. You are right that there is

2824
02:13:27,680 --> 02:13:30,560
Speaker 1: a sense of community around what football brings.

2825
02:13:30,600 --> 02:13:33,840
Speaker 3: That is f you know, do we need to talk

2826
02:13:33,880 --> 02:13:34,480
Speaker 3: about that?

2827
02:13:34,760 --> 02:13:37,360
Speaker 2: I mean, it's you know, it's it's a part of

2828
02:13:37,520 --> 02:13:40,960
Speaker 2: bringing us all together at all. And all, let's face it, man,

2829
02:13:41,080 --> 02:13:44,200
Speaker 2: we just need to be with one not to not

2830
02:13:44,320 --> 02:13:47,120
Speaker 2: to preach, but we all need just to be with

2831
02:13:47,160 --> 02:13:47,600
Speaker 2: each other.

2832
02:13:47,760 --> 02:13:49,080
Speaker 3: Like that's the biggest thing.

2833
02:13:49,160 --> 02:13:51,440
Speaker 6: Things are so divisive nowadays. One of the fun things

2834
02:13:51,440 --> 02:13:54,520
Speaker 6: that does bring everybody together, regardless of different outlooks, is

2835
02:13:54,960 --> 02:13:55,800
Speaker 6: the sports teams that.

2836
02:13:55,720 --> 02:13:57,000
Speaker 3: You root for more against.

2837
02:13:57,760 --> 02:14:00,120
Speaker 6: You know, yeah, people, people will be gavinized by the

2838
02:14:00,120 --> 02:14:01,880
Speaker 6: fact that they both hate the Cowboys and they'll just

2839
02:14:02,040 --> 02:14:04,240
Speaker 6: they'll just hate watch and do that. Right, there's a

2840
02:14:04,240 --> 02:14:06,120
Speaker 6: lot of that going on too, I will say, and

2841
02:14:06,160 --> 02:14:08,920
Speaker 6: you're probably not gonna you know, I probably don't expect this,

2842
02:14:09,040 --> 02:14:12,240
Speaker 6: but your staggered schedule idea for the Sunday windows. I

2843
02:14:12,280 --> 02:14:16,880
Speaker 6: don't hate it. Look at this, I don't hate it.

2844
02:14:15,600 --> 02:14:19,040
Speaker 6: It would take some just thing just because I'm not

2845
02:14:19,160 --> 02:14:20,960
Speaker 6: used to it. It's like lifting, like you know, it's

2846
02:14:21,000 --> 02:14:22,680
Speaker 6: like fits lifting weights, you know, but you know once

2847
02:14:22,680 --> 02:14:24,440
Speaker 6: you get into it a week or two, you know

2848
02:14:24,720 --> 02:14:29,760
Speaker 6: you'll be looking like no time going around, you know,

2849
02:14:30,760 --> 02:14:33,080
Speaker 6: stop it. You might need some enhancements.

2850
02:14:33,160 --> 02:14:34,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, I try.

2851
02:14:34,240 --> 02:14:36,320
Speaker 5: Like, look, if somebody's got enhancements, it will speed this

2852
02:14:36,360 --> 02:14:38,760
Speaker 5: process up. Ship them to me, Like you just tell

2853
02:14:38,800 --> 02:14:40,800
Speaker 5: me where to meet you, You tell me which mailbox

2854
02:14:40,920 --> 02:14:42,800
Speaker 5: to meet you by, and like I'll just we'll do

2855
02:14:42,880 --> 02:14:44,880
Speaker 5: the drop. I like, I'm all in for the enhancements,

2856
02:14:44,880 --> 02:14:47,040
Speaker 5: like two weeks, two weeks and I'm gonna be yo guy.

2857
02:14:47,120 --> 02:14:48,760
Speaker 1: No, I think this is a good idea.

2858
02:14:48,760 --> 02:14:50,480
Speaker 5: And I think what we've learned is that the Fellas

2859
02:14:50,560 --> 02:14:52,839
Speaker 5: should now take over for Roger Goodell as the commissioner

2860
02:14:52,880 --> 02:14:53,440
Speaker 5: of the NFL.

2861
02:14:53,760 --> 02:14:56,440
Speaker 3: Like, give it always maturity to be the scheduled guy?

2862
02:14:57,200 --> 02:14:59,360
Speaker 6: Can you just give me like just zero point two

2863
02:14:59,520 --> 02:15:02,280
Speaker 6: five percent of whatever he's making. I'll take that, sure.

2864
02:15:02,360 --> 02:15:05,160
Speaker 5: I know you mean job is to stand up in

2865
02:15:05,160 --> 02:15:07,879
Speaker 5: front of the media, take all the blame and then,

2866
02:15:08,040 --> 02:15:09,400
Speaker 5: you know, just deflect everything.

2867
02:15:09,440 --> 02:15:11,160
Speaker 1: I feel like we could do that as a family.

2868
02:15:11,600 --> 02:15:14,320
Speaker 5: Yes, a show structure, you know what could stand up

2869
02:15:14,360 --> 02:15:16,320
Speaker 5: and be like, yep, that's on me, and then no

2870
02:15:16,360 --> 02:15:18,240
Speaker 5: matter what the question is, I'll just sort of round

2871
02:15:18,240 --> 02:15:20,840
Speaker 5: about chase my tail on the answer, and twenty minutes

2872
02:15:20,920 --> 02:15:23,160
Speaker 5: later everybody will fall asleep like I've got this totally

2873
02:15:23,160 --> 02:15:23,640
Speaker 5: figured out.

2874
02:15:23,680 --> 02:15:26,360
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yes, yes.

2875
02:15:27,120 --> 02:15:29,600
Speaker 6: The people will ask a question three years ago, so

2876
02:15:29,600 --> 02:15:31,839
Speaker 6: will there ever be a playoff game on streaming services?

2877
02:15:31,840 --> 02:15:33,120
Speaker 6: And no, that's not going to happen. And then three

2878
02:15:33,200 --> 02:15:35,000
Speaker 6: years later it happens, and no one asks him about it,

2879
02:15:35,040 --> 02:15:38,360
Speaker 6: and he just keeps on moving. Yes enough, Well, you know,

2880
02:15:38,480 --> 02:15:43,040
Speaker 6: things change, thanks commission. Next questions pretty much what it

2881
02:15:43,120 --> 02:15:46,960
Speaker 6: turns into. By the way, real quick, I just want

2882
02:15:47,000 --> 02:15:47,640

02:16:16,920 --> 02:16:21,800
Speaker 2: let's look at the Black Friday three games thanksgiving the

2890
02:16:21,840 --> 02:16:25,120
Speaker 2: Black Friday gate. You like the way that has come

2891
02:16:25,160 --> 02:16:27,200
Speaker 2: about the second straight year of Black Friday?

2892
02:16:28,080 --> 02:16:28,560
Speaker 1: Oh god?

2893
02:16:28,640 --> 02:16:30,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, Like, I'm all in for a Black Friday game.

2894
02:16:30,560 --> 02:16:34,199
Speaker 5: I think it's it's and why not. I mean I understand,

2895
02:16:34,480 --> 02:16:36,600
Speaker 5: you know, maybe college football heads would say there's some

2896
02:16:36,640 --> 02:16:38,920
Speaker 5: college football to be played there too, but yeah, now

2897
02:16:38,959 --> 02:16:40,520
Speaker 5: give me an NFL game on Black Friday.

2898
02:16:40,560 --> 02:16:41,360
Speaker 1: It makes total sense.

2899
02:16:41,520 --> 02:16:44,039
Speaker 3: It's a big college football at night.

2900
02:16:44,920 --> 02:16:48,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like one, you have a big new kickoff and

2901
02:16:48,879 --> 02:16:51,680
Speaker 2: then you have the six and seven o'clock games.

2902
02:16:51,720 --> 02:16:53,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, which I think was the case this past year.

2903
02:16:53,560 --> 02:16:55,360
Speaker 6: I feel like in the last few seasons, you know,

2904
02:16:55,640 --> 02:16:58,400
Speaker 6: the cash day of Black Friday, with college football's kind

2905
02:16:58,400 --> 02:17:00,520
Speaker 6: of falling off. Yes, you know, you don't have as

2906
02:17:00,560 --> 02:17:02,640
Speaker 6: many marquee matchups on that day as you used to.

2907
02:17:02,720 --> 02:17:04,880
Speaker 6: So I think it's prime, prime real estate for the

2908
02:17:05,000 --> 02:17:06,840
Speaker 6: NFL to move in there and have a have a

2909
02:17:06,879 --> 02:17:08,400
Speaker 6: new tradition move in. I'm all for it.

2910
02:17:08,720 --> 02:17:10,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I agree.

2911
02:17:11,400 --> 02:17:14,160
Speaker 2: How do we feel about should let me ask you,

2912
02:17:14,240 --> 02:17:18,080
Speaker 2: do you expect a triple header on Christmas or were

2913
02:17:18,120 --> 02:17:19,280
Speaker 2: you fine with the double head?

2914
02:17:19,280 --> 02:17:21,920
Speaker 3: Like I was like looking forward to three games on Christmas.

2915
02:17:22,280 --> 02:17:24,000
Speaker 5: I kind of thought we were going to get three games,

2916
02:17:24,080 --> 02:17:26,160
Speaker 5: and I was hopeful for that, but yeah, I'll take

2917
02:17:26,200 --> 02:17:29,640
Speaker 5: two like too. So like again, I think my perspective

2918
02:17:29,640 --> 02:17:32,640
Speaker 5: on Christmas is going to be different than yols is

2919
02:17:32,680 --> 02:17:34,920
Speaker 5: because they got you know, I don't have kids, So

2920
02:17:35,160 --> 02:17:37,760
Speaker 5: for me, there's just this moment of you know, as

2921
02:17:37,760 --> 02:17:39,840
Speaker 5: somebody that doesn't have a lot of family in general,

2922
02:17:40,200 --> 02:17:42,640
Speaker 5: like I just it's nice to wake up.

2923
02:17:42,600 --> 02:17:44,160
Speaker 1: And be like, oh right, I got football coming.

2924
02:17:44,200 --> 02:17:45,920
Speaker 5: I wish it would have been a third game because

2925
02:17:45,959 --> 02:17:48,680
Speaker 5: it's a nice little like way to just sort of

2926
02:17:48,720 --> 02:17:51,640
Speaker 5: occupy the day. But you know, I think two's fine too,

2927
02:17:51,760 --> 02:17:52,720
Speaker 5: Too's fine.

2928
02:17:52,920 --> 02:17:54,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think too. I think two is enough. I

2929
02:17:54,879 --> 02:17:56,640
Speaker 6: think three could be a little bit much, especially when

2930
02:17:56,640 --> 02:17:58,480
Speaker 6: you're talking about people with families and people that do

2931
02:17:58,640 --> 02:18:01,520
Speaker 6: multiple families sort of situation, and what else someone's family

2932
02:18:01,520 --> 02:18:03,879
Speaker 6: didn't like football and you're checking the phone and it

2933
02:18:03,920 --> 02:18:06,120
Speaker 6: turns into an entire thing. If there could just be

2934
02:18:06,200 --> 02:18:08,520
Speaker 6: a window of time during the day where I can

2935
02:18:08,600 --> 02:18:11,200
Speaker 6: just you know, isolate, do the family thing, and then

2936
02:18:11,200 --> 02:18:12,680
Speaker 6: all of a sudden, all right, now we got food

2937
02:18:12,680 --> 02:18:15,040
Speaker 6: and we got sports, and all that stuff is kind

2938
02:18:15,040 --> 02:18:16,640
Speaker 6: of done with at that point, so that I think

2939
02:18:16,640 --> 02:18:17,560
Speaker 6: two is enough.

2940
02:18:18,040 --> 02:18:24,000
Speaker 2: Okay, fair, fair, fair, Let's look at opening week, all right,

2941
02:18:24,879 --> 02:18:31,439
Speaker 2: So Thursday Ravens, Cheap Chiefs, Great.

2942
02:18:31,240 --> 02:18:35,840
Speaker 1: Gaming, gonna have record ratings on that, I'm sure.

2943
02:18:36,480 --> 02:18:42,200
Speaker 2: And then you go Peacock on a Friday night from

2944
02:18:42,320 --> 02:18:48,920
Speaker 2: Sapao Brazil, Packers and Eagles. First, how do we feel

2945
02:18:48,959 --> 02:18:53,920
Speaker 2: about Brazil as the destination and the Friday game?

2946
02:18:54,040 --> 02:18:55,320
Speaker 3: You like the Friday game?

2947
02:18:56,080 --> 02:18:59,640
Speaker 5: International games suck, they take they take home games away

2948
02:18:59,640 --> 02:19:01,720
Speaker 5: from as that deserve to have them where they are.

2949
02:19:01,959 --> 02:19:03,960
Speaker 5: I don't care about the global growth of the game,

2950
02:19:03,959 --> 02:19:06,560
Speaker 5: and I don't really care if Brazil ever gets a

2951
02:19:06,560 --> 02:19:10,240
Speaker 5: football game. That being said, wouldn't mind going uh Brazil,

2952
02:19:11,440 --> 02:19:15,760
Speaker 5: I mean's but like if it was my beloved Raiders

2953
02:19:15,760 --> 02:19:17,960
Speaker 5: playing there on a Friday night in Brazil, I would

2954
02:19:17,959 --> 02:19:19,800
Speaker 5: be pumped out, Like I don't want to lose a

2955
02:19:19,840 --> 02:19:23,280
Speaker 5: home game as a fan. So I absolutely I don't

2956
02:19:23,320 --> 02:19:25,879
Speaker 5: like the International series. I don't like the international game.

2957
02:19:26,040 --> 02:19:28,240
Speaker 5: I don't really like a Friday night football game. On

2958
02:19:28,280 --> 02:19:31,800
Speaker 5: the opening weekend either. So there's very little to like

2959
02:19:31,840 --> 02:19:32,360
Speaker 5: about this.

2960
02:19:32,320 --> 02:19:34,400
Speaker 1: Other than the game and me and speedos.

2961
02:19:35,600 --> 02:19:38,800
Speaker 6: I don't that last comment nowithstanding, I don't necessarily mind

2962
02:19:39,120 --> 02:19:41,520
Speaker 6: having a Friday night game to kick off the weekend.

2963
02:19:41,600 --> 02:19:44,040
Speaker 6: You know, expand out opening weekend a little bit. You're

2964
02:19:44,040 --> 02:19:45,880
Speaker 6: not going to do Saturday to step on college football

2965
02:19:45,879 --> 02:19:48,199
Speaker 6: s toes obviously, but out of mind throwing a Friday

2966
02:19:48,200 --> 02:19:50,320
Speaker 6: game in there, I fits and I are in lockstep.

2967
02:19:50,360 --> 02:19:52,120
Speaker 6: When it comes to the International Games. I can do

2968
02:19:52,200 --> 02:19:54,000
Speaker 6: without it. That game should be at the Link. It

2969
02:19:54,000 --> 02:19:56,800
Speaker 6: should not be in South Paula, Brazil designated as a

2970
02:19:56,840 --> 02:19:59,840
Speaker 6: Philadelphia Eagles home game because it's not and as short

2971
02:20:00,040 --> 02:20:01,240
Speaker 6: and is the Eagles home fans.

2972
02:20:02,400 --> 02:20:08,680
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, people here are upset about it. I'm

2973
02:20:08,680 --> 02:20:11,120
Speaker 2: sure I like the international game.

2974
02:20:11,160 --> 02:20:14,000
Speaker 3: I'm the lone voice here. I like the International Games.

2975
02:20:14,680 --> 02:20:18,640
Speaker 2: I love the idea of spreading football throughout the world

2976
02:20:19,720 --> 02:20:20,440
Speaker 2: like Munich.

2977
02:20:21,680 --> 02:20:25,600
Speaker 3: Love fact that they're playing in Munich, London, Munich.

2978
02:20:28,840 --> 02:20:31,240
Speaker 6: If you're gonna end up expanding the schedule, maybe you

2979
02:20:31,320 --> 02:20:33,160
Speaker 6: find a way at some point to have you know,

2980
02:20:33,280 --> 02:20:36,280
Speaker 6: a game in an international city every single week and

2981
02:20:36,360 --> 02:20:38,480
Speaker 6: it's a neutral game for a neutral site for both

2982
02:20:38,520 --> 02:20:40,840
Speaker 6: teams and figure it out that way as opposed to

2983
02:20:40,879 --> 02:20:43,680
Speaker 6: taking away home games from from fans. Yeah, if you

2984
02:20:43,840 --> 02:20:45,400
Speaker 6: find a way to do that and within the schedule,

2985
02:20:45,400 --> 02:20:46,160
Speaker 6: then I'm all for it.

2986
02:20:46,640 --> 02:20:49,520
Speaker 3: I got you, I got you. I can't wait till

2987
02:20:49,560 --> 02:20:50,360
Speaker 3: they play in Rome.

2988
02:20:52,560 --> 02:20:53,400
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I will go.

2989
02:20:54,920 --> 02:20:56,840
Speaker 3: That's the three of us will go to that game.

2990
02:20:56,920 --> 02:20:59,039
Speaker 6: Oh absolutely, all right, all.

2991
02:20:59,040 --> 02:21:00,880
Speaker 2: Right, we gotta take quick time, Matt. We'll come back.

2992
02:21:00,920 --> 02:21:03,840
Speaker 2: The big Brain will join us to take a look

2993
02:21:04,080 --> 02:21:06,880
Speaker 2: at the weekend from a betting standpoint.

2994
02:21:06,879 --> 02:21:10,400
Speaker 3: We'll do that. We'll go back over some of the game.

2995
02:21:10,440 --> 02:21:14,160
Speaker 3: It's a lot of fun. Hang it. We're back, fellas, Fitzy,

2996
02:21:14,360 --> 02:21:16,360
Speaker 3: Figgy cuz oh with you.

2997
02:21:16,400 --> 02:21:19,520
Speaker 6: Every weekend Fox Sports Radio.

2998
02:21:20,440 --> 02:21:28,160
Speaker 2: Welcome back, fellas from the tire Rack dot Com studios, Fitzy,

2999
02:21:28,200 --> 02:21:31,040
Speaker 2: Figgy Cauz hanging with you every Saturday morning on Fox

3000
02:21:31,080 --> 02:21:34,440
Speaker 2: Sports Radio and joining us we take a look at

3001
02:21:34,640 --> 02:21:38,600
Speaker 2: sports from a betting standpoint, and we have the Brain.

3002
02:21:40,400 --> 02:21:45,880
Speaker 2: Brad Feinberg, our man, the Brain, our sports betting expert.

3003
02:21:45,959 --> 02:21:50,040
Speaker 4: Good morning, Bradley, Good morning, my friend, Anthony.

3004
02:21:50,000 --> 02:21:50,600
Speaker 3: Good buddy.

3005
02:21:51,680 --> 02:21:56,240
Speaker 2: Uh, before we get into the basketball, we're just diving

3006
02:21:56,320 --> 02:22:04,480
Speaker 2: over through the schedule, and interestingly, Fitzy on covers he

3007
02:22:04,560 --> 02:22:10,959
Speaker 2: shares with us how the Niners have have a distinct

3008
02:22:11,160 --> 02:22:17,160
Speaker 2: disadvantage in playing eight times playing an opponent where they

3009
02:22:17,200 --> 02:22:22,680
Speaker 2: have less rest than they do thirty two days negative

3010
02:22:24,120 --> 02:22:28,280
Speaker 2: total and when it comes to rest before games. So

3011
02:22:30,160 --> 02:22:33,720
Speaker 2: I right away thought, well, wait a second, what's there

3012
02:22:33,800 --> 02:22:37,800
Speaker 2: over on? They're eleven and a half, the schedule's tough

3013
02:22:38,600 --> 02:22:40,760
Speaker 2: factor in the games?

3014
02:22:41,959 --> 02:22:44,879
Speaker 3: What do you do? Is that an underplay for you?

3015
02:22:45,520 --> 02:22:48,040
Speaker 4: Well, you know, it's interesting. I had a lean on

3016
02:22:48,080 --> 02:22:50,840
Speaker 4: their under for sure, I had a lean on their under.

3017
02:22:50,840 --> 02:22:52,920
Speaker 4: But what's interesting what I've done in that division. I

3018
02:22:52,920 --> 02:22:56,160
Speaker 4: actually took a stab. I took the Rams plus four

3019
02:22:56,200 --> 02:22:59,240
Speaker 4: p fifty and the Seattle and eight to one to

3020
02:22:59,280 --> 02:23:03,400
Speaker 4: one division. I just something in my bones tells me

3021
02:23:03,440 --> 02:23:06,959
Speaker 4: it's not going to be the Niners. I know that

3022
02:23:07,200 --> 02:23:09,600
Speaker 4: all the reasons why it will be I get it.

3023
02:23:09,959 --> 02:23:14,360
Speaker 4: But yeah, I'm not as bullish on Sana Fran as others.

3024
02:23:14,360 --> 02:23:16,560
Speaker 4: And Plus, it just seems anything when you lose that

3025
02:23:16,640 --> 02:23:19,280
Speaker 4: Super Bowl. I don't know why. I don't know if

3026
02:23:19,320 --> 02:23:21,920
Speaker 4: it's what kind of block that it seems to be.

3027
02:23:22,040 --> 02:23:24,720
Speaker 4: It seems like it's very hard to get back there

3028
02:23:25,520 --> 02:23:27,720
Speaker 4: the next year to have any kind of the same success.

3029
02:23:27,800 --> 02:23:31,520
Speaker 4: Usually like look at Philadelphia last year for example. I

3030
02:23:31,520 --> 02:23:34,120
Speaker 4: don't think it's gonna don't. I don't love San Francisco's

3031
02:23:34,360 --> 02:23:37,080
Speaker 4: outlook as much, and I haven't bet there under eleven

3032
02:23:37,080 --> 02:23:40,280
Speaker 4: and a half yet, but it's certainly a strong lean

3033
02:23:40,320 --> 02:23:41,959
Speaker 4: that I may get there by the time, you know,

3034
02:23:42,280 --> 02:23:43,240
Speaker 4: the season kicks off.

3035
02:23:44,080 --> 02:23:47,520
Speaker 5: We were having it at early well, we were having

3036
02:23:47,520 --> 02:23:49,520
Speaker 5: an argument earlier on the Charger, So we've got to

3037
02:23:49,520 --> 02:23:51,840
Speaker 5: get your thoughts on where you are at LA. Is

3038
02:23:51,879 --> 02:23:53,600
Speaker 5: that the number we pulled was eight and a half.

3039
02:23:53,640 --> 02:23:55,360
Speaker 5: Do you have a leaning on the Chargers going into

3040
02:23:55,360 --> 02:23:55,760
Speaker 5: the season.

3041
02:23:56,040 --> 02:23:59,160
Speaker 4: Well, it's interesting, Okay, a guy who I respect very much,

3042
02:24:00,200 --> 02:24:03,240
Speaker 4: he likes their over professional better who I work with,

3043
02:24:03,280 --> 02:24:07,760
Speaker 4: and I bet under nine and a half. It was

3044
02:24:07,840 --> 02:24:09,720
Speaker 4: one like nine and a half and I took under

3045
02:24:09,800 --> 02:24:13,120
Speaker 4: nine and a half. His reason that he likes over

3046
02:24:13,200 --> 02:24:14,840
Speaker 4: eight and half and obviously eight and half nine mass

3047
02:24:14,920 --> 02:24:19,520
Speaker 4: two completely different numbers. But was it just having Assembly's

3048
02:24:19,600 --> 02:24:21,360
Speaker 4: like formula, It's like, how many times do you have

3049
02:24:21,400 --> 02:24:23,720
Speaker 4: a good coach and a good quarterback and your team

3050
02:24:23,720 --> 02:24:26,119
Speaker 4: as a losing record. He goes go through the history

3051
02:24:26,160 --> 02:24:28,520
Speaker 4: of the Annals, you have a good coach and a

3052
02:24:28,560 --> 02:24:31,360
Speaker 4: good quarterback. Very rarely do you have a losing record,

3053
02:24:31,400 --> 02:24:34,760
Speaker 4: which I did. That I couldn't argue it really is true.

3054
02:24:35,240 --> 02:24:38,520
Speaker 4: My problem with it is, I just don't know if

3055
02:24:38,520 --> 02:24:40,520
Speaker 4: they have I think it's an you know, somewhat of

3056
02:24:40,520 --> 02:24:43,680
Speaker 4: an older roster. I don't think they have many good

3057
02:24:43,760 --> 02:24:46,640
Speaker 4: defensive players. I don't think they have many good offensive players.

3058
02:24:47,720 --> 02:24:51,240
Speaker 4: So yeah, you're putting a lot on the fact that

3059
02:24:51,240 --> 02:24:53,280
Speaker 4: he's going to change the culture, which I think horriball

3060
02:24:53,320 --> 02:24:55,920
Speaker 4: will and that hurt. It's great, which I think he is.

3061
02:24:56,920 --> 02:24:58,879
Speaker 4: Eight and a half would be a completely pass for me.

3062
02:24:59,040 --> 02:25:01,440
Speaker 4: Nine and a half. I actually at the under because

3063
02:25:01,440 --> 02:25:02,840
Speaker 4: I thought the great number was eight and a.

3064
02:25:02,959 --> 02:25:05,200
Speaker 6: M m hmm.

3065
02:25:05,920 --> 02:25:08,720
Speaker 3: That's kind of where we were, you know, it was.

3066
02:25:08,760 --> 02:25:12,360
Speaker 2: It was funny because we came up. When you go

3067
02:25:12,440 --> 02:25:15,920
Speaker 2: through the schedule, it feels like eight or nine. I

3068
02:25:15,959 --> 02:25:18,080
Speaker 2: think that number is Actually I.

3069
02:25:18,040 --> 02:25:21,640
Speaker 4: Thought it was accurate. Again, I'm gonna be.

3070
02:25:23,560 --> 02:25:25,920
Speaker 5: There's there, there's six or seven win team this year.

3071
02:25:26,080 --> 02:25:27,640
Speaker 5: I'm hammering the under.

3072
02:25:30,600 --> 02:25:32,320
Speaker 4: You know what I would rather see you do though,

3073
02:25:32,440 --> 02:25:35,000
Speaker 4: And I'll be honest, if you like their under I

3074
02:25:35,000 --> 02:25:37,320
Speaker 4: have a better way to attack that because I actually

3075
02:25:37,400 --> 02:25:41,240
Speaker 4: made this bet. Also right now, if you like you're under,

3076
02:25:42,760 --> 02:25:44,720
Speaker 4: let's just say they go ninety eight, you lose, right,

3077
02:25:45,520 --> 02:25:49,720
Speaker 4: They're like, oh sucks nothing to miss the playoffs. Okay,

3078
02:25:50,480 --> 02:25:53,920
Speaker 4: it's comparable juice. And if they go ninety eight, they're

3079
02:25:53,959 --> 02:25:56,480
Speaker 4: not making the playoffs in the ASC anyway. Okay, I'll

3080
02:25:56,480 --> 02:25:59,080
Speaker 4: tell you that right now. To me, it's a way

3081
02:25:59,120 --> 02:26:01,119
Speaker 4: of you getting nine and a half. By the way

3082
02:26:01,200 --> 02:26:04,320
Speaker 4: they win ten, they may not get in, Okay, I

3083
02:26:04,360 --> 02:26:07,600
Speaker 4: think ten they probably would, but nine they're not making

3084
02:26:07,600 --> 02:26:09,840
Speaker 4: the playoffs. Nine and eat AFC they made in the NFC,

3085
02:26:10,000 --> 02:26:12,680
Speaker 4: no way in the AFC. I would rather see you

3086
02:26:12,680 --> 02:26:14,760
Speaker 4: attack it that way if everyone listens, if you like

3087
02:26:14,800 --> 02:26:16,920
Speaker 4: they're under, because I think it's kind of a way

3088
02:26:16,959 --> 02:26:20,039
Speaker 4: you're getting a free game that you know, a sneaking one.

3089
02:26:19,920 --> 02:26:22,280
Speaker 1: In that's gonna I love that.

3090
02:26:22,680 --> 02:26:24,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, because they go if they win eight, and you

3091
02:26:24,720 --> 02:26:27,160
Speaker 4: would have won your bet anyway, there's zero chance to

3092
02:26:27,200 --> 02:26:31,440
Speaker 4: get in at eight, zero right zero now, and nine.

3093
02:26:31,520 --> 02:26:34,840
Speaker 4: I think the odds are still crazy against you getting

3094
02:26:34,840 --> 02:26:36,879
Speaker 4: in at nine and eight in AFC. So to me,

3095
02:26:36,959 --> 02:26:38,760
Speaker 4: against the way you get nine and a half.

3096
02:26:40,080 --> 02:26:41,840
Speaker 3: Uh, let's go to baseball real quick.

3097
02:26:42,879 --> 02:26:43,600
Speaker 4: And so.

3098
02:26:45,280 --> 02:26:50,840
Speaker 2: What was Paul Skimes strikeouts yesterday? And how they is

3099
02:26:50,879 --> 02:26:53,800
Speaker 2: it one of those deals where you just go at

3100
02:26:54,440 --> 02:26:56,840
Speaker 2: I'm sure they're going to write it now after yesterday's

3101
02:26:56,879 --> 02:27:01,520
Speaker 2: outing interesting too, as in the side would you have

3102
02:27:01,600 --> 02:27:02,160
Speaker 2: left him in?

3103
02:27:03,440 --> 02:27:07,160
Speaker 4: Well, it's interesting on my my anthey, one of my

3104
02:27:07,160 --> 02:27:11,080
Speaker 4: onm I show yesterday, I said, and I gave up

3105
02:27:11,520 --> 02:27:15,119
Speaker 4: Paul schemes over fourteen half outs, and I said today,

3106
02:27:15,840 --> 02:27:18,760
Speaker 4: I go today, not next week, not next year, not

3107
02:27:18,959 --> 02:27:21,120
Speaker 4: five years from now. I view him as the best

3108
02:27:21,160 --> 02:27:23,200
Speaker 4: pitcher in Major League Baseball, or I go, I think

3109
02:27:23,200 --> 02:27:24,920
Speaker 4: he's as good as anyone, and I go, he will

3110
02:27:24,959 --> 02:27:28,480
Speaker 4: show that today. And I nothing I saw yesterday got

3111
02:27:28,480 --> 02:27:33,519
Speaker 4: me off that. I think this guy has no exaggeration

3112
02:27:33,680 --> 02:27:37,720
Speaker 4: like the best stuff I've seen. I think he's absolutely phenomenal.

3113
02:27:37,959 --> 02:27:40,720
Speaker 4: I was surprised to them one hundred pictures his over

3114
02:27:40,760 --> 02:27:42,560
Speaker 4: runner with six and a half strikeout to juice to

3115
02:27:42,600 --> 02:27:46,440
Speaker 4: the under And it's interesting. I'm kicking myself because I

3116
02:27:46,440 --> 02:27:48,600
Speaker 4: think he was like seven to one odds to get

3117
02:27:48,640 --> 02:27:51,320
Speaker 4: like ten plus strikeout. And I got the party laid

3118
02:27:51,360 --> 02:27:53,200
Speaker 4: on it because again I think this guy can get

3119
02:27:53,200 --> 02:27:59,080
Speaker 4: ten against anyone, and I think he's a special generational talent.

3120
02:28:00,040 --> 02:28:02,840
Speaker 4: The ball, the way his ball moves, the velocity is

3121
02:28:03,400 --> 02:28:05,360
Speaker 4: until he gets hurt. I hope he doesn't get hurt.

3122
02:28:05,440 --> 02:28:07,640
Speaker 4: But you know, I really hope he doesn't get hurt.

3123
02:28:07,680 --> 02:28:10,360
Speaker 4: I think he's must CTV and I think this guy

3124
02:28:10,480 --> 02:28:14,800
Speaker 4: is going to be again for the innings he pitches. Again,

3125
02:28:14,840 --> 02:28:16,879
Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna be able to throw consistent

3126
02:28:16,920 --> 02:28:18,960
Speaker 4: six inning games, which is why you can't put him

3127
02:28:19,000 --> 02:28:21,800
Speaker 4: as a true, true elite, elite guy because of that.

3128
02:28:21,879 --> 02:28:24,240
Speaker 4: But for the inningcy pitches, I think will be as

3129
02:28:24,360 --> 02:28:28,359
Speaker 4: unhippable as anyone we have in this baseball.

3130
02:28:27,320 --> 02:28:30,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, we were talking about how to FITZI like

3131
02:28:30,720 --> 02:28:32,440
Speaker 2: you had a great point. Why don't you say it

3132
02:28:32,560 --> 02:28:35,600
Speaker 2: about it's sure for the Brad and the audience Again

3133
02:28:35,760 --> 02:28:38,240
Speaker 2: about the about special moments.

3134
02:28:38,640 --> 02:28:41,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think my bee Brad is that like in

3135
02:28:41,240 --> 02:28:44,680
Speaker 5: the moment of trying to hold his armor or preserve

3136
02:28:44,760 --> 02:28:47,200
Speaker 5: the future, what you're doing is you're denying everybody that's

3137
02:28:47,240 --> 02:28:49,920
Speaker 5: there and baseball as a whole, the opportunity for a

3138
02:28:49,920 --> 02:28:53,039
Speaker 5: truly special moment that cuts through, you know, and for

3139
02:28:53,080 --> 02:28:55,240
Speaker 5: a sport that is constantly trying to make sure that

3140
02:28:55,240 --> 02:28:57,280
Speaker 5: people are paying attention, but also for all the people

3141
02:28:57,320 --> 02:28:59,760
Speaker 5: that are in the stadium that want that memory and

3142
02:28:59,800 --> 02:29:03,400
Speaker 5: that moment. Like, I just think baseball has prioritized analytics

3143
02:29:03,440 --> 02:29:05,960
Speaker 5: over allowing special moments to happen, and I don't think

3144
02:29:05,959 --> 02:29:07,119
Speaker 5: that that's great for the sport.

3145
02:29:08,040 --> 02:29:10,240
Speaker 4: Well that's a fair point, but I'm gonna say this.

3146
02:29:10,600 --> 02:29:13,840
Speaker 4: He threw one hundred pitches through six innings, so you know,

3147
02:29:13,959 --> 02:29:17,240
Speaker 4: I don't need my great maskills real he's at pro rates.

3148
02:29:17,360 --> 02:29:21,400
Speaker 4: You know, he's throwing about, you know, sixteen over sixteen,

3149
02:29:21,480 --> 02:29:24,560
Speaker 4: seventeen pitches an inning, so he's going to need one

3150
02:29:24,640 --> 02:29:27,000
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty pitches to finish that game. I don't

3151
02:29:27,000 --> 02:29:28,840
Speaker 4: remember the last time someone tol one hundred fo pitches.

3152
02:29:28,879 --> 02:29:32,080
Speaker 4: Maybe Randy Johnson back of the day. Maybe don't know

3153
02:29:32,160 --> 02:29:32,920
Speaker 4: that interesting?

3154
02:29:33,080 --> 02:29:33,880
Speaker 3: You know what's funny?

3155
02:29:34,480 --> 02:29:37,640
Speaker 2: So I brought up Doc Good in nineteen eighty four,

3156
02:29:38,320 --> 02:29:44,280
Speaker 2: September seventh against Chicago. He throws a one hitter, nine innings,

3157
02:29:44,760 --> 02:29:48,599
Speaker 2: eleven strikeouts, he walked four or five.

3158
02:29:49,160 --> 02:29:52,360
Speaker 6: And he threw one hundred and forty seven pitches.

3159
02:29:53,040 --> 02:29:56,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, forty sixteen to me, the counter argument to what

3160
02:29:56,080 --> 02:29:58,240
Speaker 4: I just said, guys is and Anthony, I think I've

3161
02:29:58,240 --> 02:30:02,320
Speaker 4: discussed this with you off air. I find it fascinating

3162
02:30:02,320 --> 02:30:04,760
Speaker 4: with all like the the analytics and the and the

3163
02:30:05,959 --> 02:30:07,959
Speaker 4: help people with you know, health now to make sure

3164
02:30:08,000 --> 02:30:12,000
Speaker 4: people were rest management theoretically, better technology, better everything. I

3165
02:30:12,000 --> 02:30:15,040
Speaker 4: found it interesting. I remember Anthony growing up with like

3166
02:30:15,160 --> 02:30:18,039
Speaker 4: the open age, when they had like, you know, four

3167
02:30:18,080 --> 02:30:21,000
Speaker 4: starters all pitching like three hundred innings, you know, like

3168
02:30:21,959 --> 02:30:24,680
Speaker 4: and I just the Balttimore Oriels had like all their

3169
02:30:24,720 --> 02:30:27,680
Speaker 4: guys go to four twenty game winners, and they all

3170
02:30:27,680 --> 02:30:30,160
Speaker 4: would pitch like every fourth day, forget every fifth day.

3171
02:30:30,200 --> 02:30:32,959
Speaker 4: Every fourth day Nolan Ryan was throwing three hundred and

3172
02:30:32,959 --> 02:30:36,119
Speaker 4: forty innings, and I feel like the injuries were far

3173
02:30:36,200 --> 02:30:38,920
Speaker 4: less back then. Again, I was a kid, I was younger,

3174
02:30:39,240 --> 02:30:40,960
Speaker 4: but it didn't seem like the disabled US was in.

3175
02:30:41,160 --> 02:30:45,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I had the same conversation with Charlie, Manuel, Larry Bowe,

3176
02:30:45,400 --> 02:30:47,280
Speaker 2: all those old timers. They'll tell you the same thing.

3177
02:30:48,080 --> 02:30:49,800
Speaker 2: You know, I think a lot of it has to

3178
02:30:49,800 --> 02:30:53,360
Speaker 2: do with throwing all year round. Guys throw too much,

3179
02:30:53,360 --> 02:30:55,640
Speaker 2: and I think they throw too much as kids and

3180
02:30:55,720 --> 02:30:56,760
Speaker 2: then into high school.

3181
02:30:56,920 --> 02:30:59,760
Speaker 4: You know, well you have Anthony. Now, in my opinion,

3182
02:30:59,760 --> 02:31:03,560
Speaker 4: you're also have a backlash, right even if you're you're

3183
02:31:03,800 --> 02:31:05,680
Speaker 4: think your method it's like, it's tough when you think

3184
02:31:05,720 --> 02:31:08,200
Speaker 4: your methodology is right to go against what the quote

3185
02:31:08,240 --> 02:31:10,440
Speaker 4: unquote world says. Like let's just say it's citation about

3186
02:31:10,480 --> 02:31:12,760
Speaker 4: the Paul Schemes thing. If you throw him out there

3187
02:31:12,760 --> 02:31:14,760
Speaker 4: for the seventh inning, the eighth inning, when suppose he

3188
02:31:14,800 --> 02:31:17,000
Speaker 4: gets to the nineteenings, like one hundred and thirty four pitches,

3189
02:31:17,040 --> 02:31:20,199
Speaker 4: he gives up a hit. Keith being roasted on social media,

3190
02:31:20,600 --> 02:31:23,600
Speaker 4: you know, like that, what, Oh my god, you're you're, you're,

3191
02:31:23,640 --> 02:31:26,160
Speaker 4: you're you're letting this guy pitch. You know what are

3192
02:31:26,160 --> 02:31:28,680
Speaker 4: you're ruining in his career and you're going to get something. God,

3193
02:31:28,800 --> 02:31:31,600
Speaker 4: the bid does happen, you're out of the job number one,

3194
02:31:31,879 --> 02:31:34,760
Speaker 4: and you're just going to be roasted for it, probably unfairly,

3195
02:31:34,800 --> 02:31:37,400
Speaker 4: but that's just the way the society has become where

3196
02:31:37,440 --> 02:31:39,000
Speaker 4: it's like and I told you so kind of thing.

3197
02:31:39,000 --> 02:31:40,480
Speaker 4: I don't think it used to be like that back

3198
02:31:40,480 --> 02:31:43,879
Speaker 4: in many years ago. Uh, when you know, when people

3199
02:31:43,920 --> 02:31:45,160
Speaker 4: weren't getting hurt.

3200
02:31:45,720 --> 02:31:47,480
Speaker 5: That's truly a damned if you do and damned if

3201
02:31:47,480 --> 02:31:50,080
Speaker 5: you don't scenario for all of this like I will,

3202
02:31:50,120 --> 02:31:51,959
Speaker 5: I will, I will acknowledge that one.

3203
02:31:53,800 --> 02:31:56,680
Speaker 2: All right real quick because we got only a couple

3204
02:31:56,720 --> 02:31:59,440
Speaker 2: of minutes, and so why you hit us with some uh?

3205
02:31:59,520 --> 02:32:02,959
Speaker 2: We have big gain seven's tomorrow. Take a look at

3206
02:32:03,320 --> 02:32:07,160
Speaker 2: some of your plays at Brad's Best bets dot com.

3207
02:32:07,200 --> 02:32:09,959
Speaker 2: At Brad's Best bets dot com. Nobody doesn't like him.

3208
02:32:10,320 --> 02:32:13,160
Speaker 2: He's the prop king at Brad's Best Bets on Twitter.

3209
02:32:13,760 --> 02:32:16,320
Speaker 2: So h, why don't you hit us with that?

3210
02:32:16,640 --> 02:32:18,720
Speaker 4: Yeah? Three year listen, it's fun of usual. I come

3211
02:32:18,760 --> 02:32:21,040
Speaker 4: with you, props. I'm gonna give more my bet. I

3212
02:32:21,080 --> 02:32:22,600
Speaker 4: happen to like it a lot. It's one of my

3213
02:32:22,640 --> 02:32:25,560
Speaker 4: favorite bets in a long time. In terms of a

3214
02:32:25,560 --> 02:32:28,879
Speaker 4: straight game. I really like Dallas. I'd like Dallas a lot.

3215
02:32:29,680 --> 02:32:32,080
Speaker 4: I think they're better than OKC. I think I look,

3216
02:32:32,640 --> 02:32:34,360
Speaker 4: I always say, would you read to be consistent? Would

3217
02:32:34,360 --> 02:32:35,080
Speaker 4: you rather be right?

3218
02:32:36,560 --> 02:32:36,760
Speaker 3: Huge?

3219
02:32:36,760 --> 02:32:39,320
Speaker 4: Shooture on OKC? Fifty to one to win the West,

3220
02:32:39,360 --> 02:32:40,959
Speaker 4: one hundred and one to win the title. Been rooting

3221
02:32:40,959 --> 02:32:44,160
Speaker 4: for this team all year about that? It's not you know,

3222
02:32:44,280 --> 02:32:48,080
Speaker 4: watching these five games, I feel pretty confident Dallas is

3223
02:32:48,080 --> 02:32:51,000
Speaker 4: the better team. I think OKC is a legit player. Short.

3224
02:32:52,160 --> 02:32:55,520
Speaker 4: I think Dallas is a better team today. In twenty

3225
02:32:55,560 --> 02:32:58,240
Speaker 4: twenty four, twenty twenty five, maybe a different story. I

3226
02:32:58,320 --> 02:33:00,960
Speaker 4: bet one of my biggest straight that's of the year.

3227
02:33:01,000 --> 02:33:03,360
Speaker 4: I bet Dallas Minstra. I say they not only win

3228
02:33:03,400 --> 02:33:05,240
Speaker 4: this game, I think they win it by margin. I

3229
02:33:05,240 --> 02:33:07,520
Speaker 4: think they win the game by fifteen plus. I don't

3230
02:33:07,520 --> 02:33:09,800
Speaker 4: think it's going to be close. We will see, like

3231
02:33:09,879 --> 02:33:12,560
Speaker 4: Dallas a lot. Look the other two games, Anthony, the

3232
02:33:12,600 --> 02:33:16,680
Speaker 4: Pacers nix thing. I look, I'll bull disclosure, Anthony. I

3233
02:33:16,840 --> 02:33:19,920
Speaker 4: bet the Nicks yesterday getting six and a half points.

3234
02:33:20,120 --> 02:33:23,200
Speaker 4: I've let myself dot the Knicks twice in my entire life.

3235
02:33:23,360 --> 02:33:26,040
Speaker 4: Last I took him twice against the Pacers, getting six

3236
02:33:26,040 --> 02:33:28,280
Speaker 4: and a half points. They're losed by a zillion both times.

3237
02:33:29,520 --> 02:33:32,640
Speaker 4: This team, to me, I look, I can't save them

3238
02:33:32,640 --> 02:33:34,200
Speaker 4: because at home, I know the crowd is just going

3239
02:33:34,280 --> 02:33:35,879
Speaker 4: to be insane. I don't know if Josh Hart, if

3240
02:33:35,879 --> 02:33:37,400
Speaker 4: you heard Anthony Stosh Hart can be playing.

3241
02:33:38,400 --> 02:33:39,160
Speaker 3: I believe so.

3242
02:33:39,720 --> 02:33:42,039
Speaker 4: But you know, okay, because he left injured. He left

3243
02:33:42,040 --> 02:33:46,000
Speaker 4: injured in game in games today, that's what, Yeah, that's

3244
02:33:46,000 --> 02:33:47,280
Speaker 4: when they really throw off the rail.

3245
02:33:47,720 --> 02:33:49,480
Speaker 2: What he goes out again and they need him to

3246
02:33:49,600 --> 02:33:51,600
Speaker 2: for that's how I got killed on the boards.

3247
02:33:51,800 --> 02:33:55,039
Speaker 4: Indeed, yeah, look, I have no interest in maying that

3248
02:33:55,120 --> 02:33:57,160
Speaker 4: game Denver Minnesota. Look, I got to give you a

3249
02:33:57,400 --> 02:34:00,400
Speaker 4: Minnesota a lot of credit. I wrote them all after

3250
02:34:00,440 --> 02:34:03,760
Speaker 4: game five. I'm like, okay, look, missus Denver figured this out.

3251
02:34:04,240 --> 02:34:08,120
Speaker 4: They clearly didn't. Look, it's a tough game. I mean again,

3252
02:34:08,480 --> 02:34:11,200
Speaker 4: one way I can lean lean would be taking the

3253
02:34:11,280 --> 02:34:13,720
Speaker 4: five points, but not a game I'm personally betting, and

3254
02:34:13,800 --> 02:34:15,360
Speaker 4: I'll give you a couple of crops and you're up

3255
02:34:15,360 --> 02:34:17,840
Speaker 4: against it. SGA under one and a half blocks have

3256
02:34:17,920 --> 02:34:20,200
Speaker 4: this last game doing it again fifty eight and seventeen

3257
02:34:20,280 --> 02:34:21,879
Speaker 4: during the year to the under, even with the extra

3258
02:34:21,920 --> 02:34:25,120
Speaker 4: Mens's getting. Nancy should not be I'm only wearing like

3259
02:34:25,160 --> 02:34:27,119
Speaker 4: a dollar thirty. This should be closer road minus two

3260
02:34:27,160 --> 02:34:30,800
Speaker 4: hundred bet and Luis Castillo Seattle Maners is gone over

3261
02:34:30,840 --> 02:34:33,320
Speaker 4: five mares strikeouts eight year, row twenty four and nine.

3262
02:34:33,360 --> 02:34:35,440
Speaker 4: Last year I made it six and a half. I

3263
02:34:35,480 --> 02:34:36,800
Speaker 4: think that's one strikeout too low.

3264
02:34:37,440 --> 02:34:39,280
Speaker 6: All right, great stuff the brain.

3265
02:34:40,400 --> 02:34:43,240
Speaker 2: We appreciate it, buddy, Thank you what We'll come back

3266
02:34:44,000 --> 02:34:48,800
Speaker 2: and wrap it up. Fellas every week right here with

3267
02:34:48,920 --> 02:34:53,600
Speaker 2: you on Fox Sports Radio, Fellas.

3268
02:34:54,840 --> 02:34:57,439
Speaker 3: Fitzy figgycause with you.

3269
02:35:00,160 --> 02:35:06,000
Speaker 2: The Direct dot Com studios, all right, Uh, just to

3270
02:35:06,080 --> 02:35:10,039
Speaker 2: kind of take it back full circle and uh to

3271
02:35:10,120 --> 02:35:14,280
Speaker 2: go back. It was interesting with what the brain had

3272
02:35:14,320 --> 02:35:18,879
Speaker 2: to say about, you know, because the analytic piece of

3273
02:35:18,959 --> 02:35:20,480
Speaker 2: it of the baseball like, I.

3274
02:35:21,959 --> 02:35:22,920
Speaker 6: Fits you, I'm with you.

3275
02:35:23,240 --> 02:35:26,280
Speaker 2: I don't know what the answer is, and I get

3276
02:35:26,600 --> 02:35:31,120
Speaker 2: the idea of you know, God forbid something happens, but

3277
02:35:31,360 --> 02:35:33,240
Speaker 2: it's just operating in fear.

3278
02:35:33,720 --> 02:35:33,920
Speaker 1: You know.

3279
02:35:34,160 --> 02:35:38,000
Speaker 3: Sometimes it just got to pitch where the.

3280
02:35:37,879 --> 02:35:42,560
Speaker 5: Line if the mindset has God forbid something happens, Like,

3281
02:35:42,600 --> 02:35:45,440
Speaker 5: where's the mindset on that end? Like that's just part

3282
02:35:45,440 --> 02:35:48,879
Speaker 5: of being an athlete, That's part of life in sports,

3283
02:35:49,120 --> 02:35:51,520
Speaker 5: Like there's always going to be the chance that, you know,

3284
02:35:51,640 --> 02:35:54,000
Speaker 5: God forbid a player take a hit that they don't

3285
02:35:54,000 --> 02:35:56,400
Speaker 5: need to take in an NFL game, but it happens.

3286
02:35:56,560 --> 02:35:59,360
Speaker 5: Like that's just part of the risk. Like at some point,

3287
02:35:59,520 --> 02:36:02,400
Speaker 5: when you've got a pitcher that's absolutely destroying it and

3288
02:36:02,760 --> 02:36:05,960
Speaker 5: you've got an opportunity for this sort of incredible moment,

3289
02:36:06,360 --> 02:36:08,440
Speaker 5: how do you just walk away from that because you've

3290
02:36:08,520 --> 02:36:11,040
Speaker 5: hit a certain number? I just ten years ago, we

3291
02:36:11,360 --> 02:36:14,720
Speaker 5: would be absolutely freaking out about that, And now it's

3292
02:36:14,800 --> 02:36:15,279
Speaker 5: just part.

3293
02:36:15,080 --> 02:36:19,959
Speaker 2: Of the opposite because if it's right, like, even if

3294
02:36:20,000 --> 02:36:22,680
Speaker 2: he does finish the game, say nothing happens, and he

3295
02:36:22,760 --> 02:36:25,560
Speaker 2: finishes the game and he pitches a no hitter and

3296
02:36:25,600 --> 02:36:29,240
Speaker 2: he has to throw one hundred and thirty nine pitches, right,

3297
02:36:30,640 --> 02:36:34,760
Speaker 2: which is excessive, especially for a young pitcher, but has

3298
02:36:34,800 --> 02:36:38,760
Speaker 2: to throw one hundred, there would be half the population

3299
02:36:39,600 --> 02:36:46,440
Speaker 2: not even talking about no hitter, sixteen strikeouts. They would

3300
02:36:46,440 --> 02:36:50,200
Speaker 2: be talking about how stupid the pirates were for making

3301
02:36:50,240 --> 02:36:51,640
Speaker 2: him throw very nine pitches.

3302
02:36:53,800 --> 02:36:55,200
Speaker 3: But I mean, right, like.

3303
02:36:56,600 --> 02:36:59,960
Speaker 6: Is what some people would say. The analytic gurus, Yeah,

3304
02:37:00,160 --> 02:37:00,840
Speaker 6: those are the ones.

3305
02:37:01,400 --> 02:37:04,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, but ten years ago, not even ten years ago,

3306
02:37:04,879 --> 02:37:08,440
Speaker 5: six seven years ago, you pull a pitcher in that moment,

3307
02:37:08,920 --> 02:37:10,720
Speaker 5: people would have been screaming, how can you pull him?

3308
02:37:10,720 --> 02:37:12,480
Speaker 1: How can you all let him try and go for it? Like,

3309
02:37:12,520 --> 02:37:13,680
Speaker 1: what are we doing? You know that?

3310
02:37:13,840 --> 02:37:15,880
Speaker 3: So I'll be thinking it was all about it with

3311
02:37:15,920 --> 02:37:16,840
Speaker 3: the Dodger mess.

3312
02:37:16,920 --> 02:37:19,080
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I did it a couple of times in

3313
02:37:19,120 --> 02:37:23,000
Speaker 6: the playoffs, yeah, regular season as well. Ross drippling early

3314
02:37:23,040 --> 02:37:24,879
Speaker 6: on in his career with the Dodgers against the Giants

3315
02:37:24,879 --> 02:37:26,560
Speaker 6: in San Francisco. They pulled him, I think in the

3316
02:37:26,600 --> 02:37:28,960
Speaker 6: fifth or sixth when he had a perfect game going.

3317
02:37:29,000 --> 02:37:33,400
Speaker 6: I believe it was, yeah, this this stuff happens, unfortunately.

3318
02:37:33,440 --> 02:37:35,600
Speaker 6: And look, it's also because I guess, what with the

3319
02:37:35,680 --> 02:37:38,160
Speaker 6: narrative be if he does get hurt, if it's seven

3320
02:37:38,160 --> 02:37:40,240
Speaker 6: and two thirds and he makes it throw and he

3321
02:37:40,280 --> 02:37:42,960
Speaker 6: messes up his elbow, you know there's going to be

3322
02:37:43,000 --> 02:37:44,400
Speaker 6: a part of the crowd that says, see, this is

3323
02:37:44,440 --> 02:37:46,400
Speaker 6: what happens when you push guys, you know, too far.

3324
02:37:46,920 --> 02:37:49,000
Speaker 6: But I also think there's going to be someone who say, like, look,

3325
02:37:49,080 --> 02:37:51,800
Speaker 6: I mean most of the time the player would have said,

3326
02:37:51,800 --> 02:37:53,360
Speaker 6: you know what, I was going for history, and I'm

3327
02:37:53,360 --> 02:37:56,200
Speaker 6: okay with it. Keep me in. Ninety nine point nine

3328
02:37:56,240 --> 02:37:57,640
Speaker 6: percent of the players who would be out there say

3329
02:37:57,640 --> 02:37:58,920
Speaker 6: I'm a competitor. I want to go out there. I

3330
02:37:58,920 --> 02:37:59,720
Speaker 6: wanted to keep pitching.

3331
02:38:00,160 --> 02:38:03,120
Speaker 5: No no kid ever since then, says man, I hope

3332
02:38:03,160 --> 02:38:05,119
Speaker 5: someday I can grow up, make it to the bigs and.

3333
02:38:05,040 --> 02:38:06,439
Speaker 1: Get pulled a one hundred pitches.

3334
02:38:06,200 --> 02:38:10,240
Speaker 6: In right and a no hitter right like terrible.

3335
02:38:11,040 --> 02:38:14,000
Speaker 1: It's just it's part of the mindset change.

3336
02:38:14,120 --> 02:38:16,400
Speaker 5: And I guess, and I'm going to be honest, I

3337
02:38:16,400 --> 02:38:18,959
Speaker 5: don't know the data, but like i'd really need to

3338
02:38:19,000 --> 02:38:22,440
Speaker 5: see the injury data and see why it's gone this way.

3339
02:38:22,520 --> 02:38:25,200
Speaker 5: Has it truly been beneficial? Because if you're going to

3340
02:38:25,240 --> 02:38:28,920
Speaker 5: simply take away basically the opportunity more often than not

3341
02:38:29,360 --> 02:38:31,360
Speaker 5: to have that oh my god, I can't believe he

3342
02:38:31,400 --> 02:38:32,800
Speaker 5: had a no hitter, Oh my god, he had a

3343
02:38:32,840 --> 02:38:34,760
Speaker 5: perfect game, all these things that if you're going to

3344
02:38:34,840 --> 02:38:37,119
Speaker 5: take that away, then you better be able to show

3345
02:38:37,120 --> 02:38:40,280
Speaker 5: me very clear data that explains why you're taking that away,

3346
02:38:40,280 --> 02:38:44,360
Speaker 5: because I have a hard time, Lady Justice scales getting

3347
02:38:44,400 --> 02:38:46,200
Speaker 5: them to balance out in a world where you can

3348
02:38:46,240 --> 02:38:47,680
Speaker 5: look at it and say, oh, well, it was worth

3349
02:38:47,720 --> 02:38:50,119
Speaker 5: it because we got three more starts out of him

3350
02:38:50,120 --> 02:38:50,480
Speaker 5: this year.

3351
02:38:50,480 --> 02:38:53,879
Speaker 1: Okay, is that was that worth it? I don't know.

3352
02:38:54,080 --> 02:38:55,720
Speaker 5: Was it worth not being in a history book? Maybe

3353
02:38:55,720 --> 02:38:57,680
Speaker 5: it wouldn't have made it either way, But I mean,

3354
02:38:57,920 --> 02:39:00,000
Speaker 5: are people really going to remember the couple extra stars

3355
02:39:00,000 --> 02:39:01,600
Speaker 5: what you got because of that load management?

3356
02:39:01,680 --> 02:39:02,120
Speaker 1: I don't know.

3357
02:39:02,520 --> 02:39:05,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a Figgy's point. Just bump them back another day.

3358
02:39:05,160 --> 02:39:08,879
Speaker 6: Yeah, like that's the easy solution. Yep, you know, it's

3359
02:39:08,879 --> 02:39:10,560
Speaker 6: like they have the the third part, the part about

3360
02:39:10,600 --> 02:39:13,200
Speaker 6: innings limits is like I mean I can throw eight

3361
02:39:13,200 --> 02:39:15,200
Speaker 6: pitches in an inning. I can throw twenty eight pitches

3362
02:39:15,200 --> 02:39:17,119
Speaker 6: in exact So what difference doesn't make how many innings?

3363
02:39:17,280 --> 02:39:20,160
