1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: That's right, we're broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 2: studios here on a Fox Sports Saturday. I'm Martin Whisch.

4
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: Joined it with Monci Bolanos on a Master's Weekend. Moncy,

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,680
Speaker 2: you know, no NBA games today, but we do have

6
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:23,639
Speaker 2: a I mean, some people would call it a solution,

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: but I like solutions to solve problems. This seems to

8
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 2: be like this is just going to add Like you know,

9
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,240
Speaker 2: if the solution is add more problems to the NBA,

10
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: then they figured it out. We'll get to that. Just

11
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: a second out of silver, you know, just tinkering in

12
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 2: a poor way.

13
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 3: De spread times, called for desper measures.

14
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 2: And then you got back to school. Back to school.

15
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 2: Not Billy Madison, but Michael Malone. Is he going to

16
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 2: be able? How is he going to handle the rigors

17
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 2: of the ACC after he was able to maneuver the

18
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: Western Conference for at least one championship. But you know what, Monsie,

19
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 2: today I'll start with a T for the winners, a

20
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 2: T for the champions Yeah, may extended today.

21
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 3: Yes, I decided to bring Martin a congratulations drink because

22
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 3: his team did win. Not only did his team win

23
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 3: the natty that he's repping right now. He also kicked

24
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: all of our asses in the bracket. So the kids,

25
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 3: as I as I said, as the kids say, you

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 3: know ball. You know I texted him earlier in the weekend.

27
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 2: The only congratulatory text I got, which is why you

28
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 2: are my favorite person here.

29
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 3: That's right, I got you, I got the rest of

30
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:41,679
Speaker 3: you jokers.

31
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: I know you saw it. I know you saw it.

32
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 3: I'm proud of my partner, you know. I I clapped

33
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 3: when I read the email, like a gracious loser face.

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 3: But I was like, oh, that's all right, Martin, did it.

35
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 3: Good job. You know what I'm saying. Like I was

36
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 3: upset I lost, but I was so proud of you

37
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: as my partner. And like, also, you told me early

38
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 3: on Michigan's best team. You said, you know what you

39
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 3: told me this months ago, Michigan is the best team.

40
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 3: And I said, all right, well are you telling me

41
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 3: that as a Michigan man? Are you telling me that

42
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 3: without looking at at your team through rose colored glasses?

43
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 3: And it's hard, but you're right.

44
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 2: It didn't matter what colored glasses I was looking through.

45
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 3: Was right? He was right?

46
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: You know, really, when I felt good about. It was

47
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: when every when, all the and like the all the analysts,

48
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: the whole take was, well, you know, Dan Hurley's a

49
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: great coach. It's like, dude, Dan Hurley's not going to

50
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 2: play a minute in this game. All right, you actual

51
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 2: Wenderberg might not play, but I know Dan Hurley not

52
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 2: gonna play. He not gonna play a single second. Anyway.

53
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 2: They had to parade today in ann Arbor, and at

54
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 2: that parade Ward Manuel said that Dusty Bay will be

55
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: coaching Michigan for quite some time or some phrasing of

56
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,960
Speaker 2: that nature. And it's like I was telling people this

57
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 2: entire search process, so as they're trying to fill the

58
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,959
Speaker 2: North Carolina job, is Tommy Lloyd gonna go? Should Dusty

59
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 2: may go? Dusty ain't not going any damn where. Well

60
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 2: in the NIL era, Michigan paid ten million dollars for

61
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: a quarterback. All right, what do you think the head

62
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: basketball coach is gonna make? What do you think the

63
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,679
Speaker 2: resources are gonna be available for that basketball? I know

64
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 2: so many people in the NL guess what they got money?

65
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 2: And so y'all want to change the rules to where

66
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 2: a champion circle you am can cast those checks will

67
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 2: guess what we'll do it. Frozen four is in the

68
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 2: National Championship game right now. Boston. Michigan lost in double

69
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 2: overtime to University of Denver, Washington too.

70
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 3: But you know, you can't have everything relaxed.

71
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 2: We are at everything school. We are at everything school.

72
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: So here's the thing. Part of the reason I did

73
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: have a little bit of nerves about Michigan was just

74
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: and it's a little different in basketball obviously, a tournament

75
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: like that, because there's no carryover to the next day.

76
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 2: You just survive in advance. How poorly you play one

77
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: day does not matter for the next. However, Michigan was

78
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 2: really putting up a lot of style points right It

79
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: was like, man, they're really crushing everybody they play. Does

80
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 2: this run out? Is this too much? Too soon? So

81
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 2: I saw that Rory had a six shot lead through

82
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 2: thirty six holes at the Masters, and again I'm relatively

83
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 2: new here. Like when east Side Golf launched their clothing

84
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 2: line is when I started to like lock in. So

85
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: one of my more memorable golf member is watching Rory

86
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 2: last Masters. I'm like, man, this is cinema. Close the window,

87
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 2: it's getting dusty here. Me I don't understand what's happening.

88
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 2: It's like, and I know that Rory has his history

89
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 2: of just of just choking miraculously, right, And even in

90
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 2: that one you're watching it, it's just like you how

91
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 2: many holes you play off? You know, Justin Rose is

92
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: working up, ready to hunt you down, bro, And sure

93
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 2: enough he ends up winning it. Everybody feels good. Six

94
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 2: So six shot lead at the start of play today,

95
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: and oh of course there's a fire all right, because

96
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 2: now he's not tied first with Cameron Young, who looks

97
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 2: Roy is the only player I think in the top

98
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: twenty definitely in the top ten to shoot even our

99
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,559
Speaker 2: above are.

100
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 3: Above above over for the day.

101
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 2: That, especially when you have that big of a lead,

102
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,719
Speaker 2: is one of the toughest things about not just golf

103
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 2: but any individual sport, because you're not only competing against

104
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 2: like the opponent, right, you're also competing against yourself, and

105
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: at a certain point in time you might have this

106
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 2: level of I'm not this not I'm not this good. Right.

107
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 2: But like if you know, for example, as a baseball player,

108
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: you've hit a home run on the last three at bats,

109
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 2: you're probably not expecting to hit one on the fourth, right,

110
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 2: you're probably expecting to make out, right, you know what

111
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 2: I'm saying. It's like you're not expecting a seventy game

112
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 2: history to be eight. You know, these things are is

113
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 2: by the law of averages. But in the Masters, you're

114
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 2: not only competing against your you're competing against everybody, like

115
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 2: so many other people. And he makes a cut. Obviously

116
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: he's right there at the top, but you have to

117
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 2: deal with that in the first couple of days. So

118
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 2: that's as the pressure ratchets up, his game has gotten

119
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: worse and worse. And not to mention, like, you got

120
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 2: you got guys hitting holes in one right, Shane lower hits,

121
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 2: you got Scotty Scheffler. Everybody's clapping for him, the heater

122
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: he's on and everybody, and he's just looking like damn.

123
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 2: I was just it was all good with the morning.

124
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just about to say, it's not only

125
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 3: did McElroy start to go downhill after the first day,

126
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 3: but he hit a tree today and then Scotty Scheffler

127
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 3: is on a tear. The last person that you wanted

128
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: on a tear the day before going into you know,

129
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 3: the final round, like that is not what you want.

130
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 3: But he's still he's still at the top of the leaderboard,

131
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 3: one over Cameron Young out seven under on the day,

132
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 3: just like Scotti Scheffler seven under on the.

133
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 2: Pal And that's kind of where And there was a

134
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: lot of people talking about how the course needs course

135
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 2: super easy the first two days. It's like, all right, well,

136
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 2: clearly it's not so easy for some people, right because

137
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 2: the same people who were smoked it the first two days,

138
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden he's looking like he's swinging

139
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 2: the club with the wrong hand, right. So, but it's

140
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 2: just shows to show you. I just that's why I

141
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 2: find fascinating, not just about this tournament in particular, but

142
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 2: like golf tournaments in generals. When you're watching it, you

143
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,240
Speaker 2: watch guys melt down in a way that is really

144
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: because it's independent what you're what you are doing should

145
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 2: not matter. It shouldn't matter for everybody else. It's not

146
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 2: even like baseball, where you got a pitcher in a

147
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 2: batter and that's an individual matchup that then starts everything else. Right, basketball,

148
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: you got a one on one on any given moment

149
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 2: that then starts some other action. Football you have everybody's

150
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 2: gonna go one on one on every play. Golf, you

151
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 2: are competing again against yourself and then against everybody else.

152
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 2: So while you're in the middle of Bogey Bogey Bogey,

153
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: you're looking at cause you you know who's over there. Yeah.

154
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: You hear the roarers when it's something good, and you know.

155
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: That they're not roaring for you. No pun attended. Nice,

156
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 2: But it's like I just so, I just fascinating this,

157
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 2: Like it's true. He was our reality television and high

158
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 2: level dramas you find it at a gusha.

159
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 3: Honestly, Like I watched several hours of this today and

160
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 3: I may have text Dan Byer a question or too.

161
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 3: Dan Byer is like in a staycation watching this. This

162
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 3: is like his you know, his favorite time of the year,

163
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 3: one of them, but this is one of them. And

164
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 3: I said, so, like, look at this straight. Is there

165
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 3: somebody who is impartial who is watching them put that

166
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 3: marker when they get to the green and they put

167
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 3: that marker to indicate where they're gonna put the ball back.

168
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 3: I was like, is there somebody watching them do that?

169
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 3: Or everyone just like we trust each other and he's like, yeah, no,

170
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 3: it's an honor code. There have been some golfers who

171
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 3: have been a little bit too lenient and have been

172
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 3: called out, but it is an honor code, and I'm like, yeah,

173
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 3: that's just something that I you have nobody there that's impartial.

174
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 2: Do you there have been and we can actually tap

175
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 2: I'm sure Steve the sagarette when he gets at the

176
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 2: bottom of the arc because I point out numerous examples

177
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 2: of this happening, but there have been several times that

178
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 2: people watching from home, watching on TV notice it. We'll

179
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: call in and say this, this golfer here broke a

180
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 2: rule on this, and they will then retroactively add strokes

181
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 2: to the to the final total. Wow or did ductor

182
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 2: depending on whatever the.

183
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 3: I did not know that. I did see whoever it

184
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 3: was that hit the ball. Was it yesterday and landed

185
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 3: in the purse of a woman or a woman's bag?

186
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 2: Sure?

187
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 3: And then they literally had to say, well, if it

188
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,719
Speaker 3: comes out of the bag, it lands here because you

189
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 3: have to hit the ball where it lies. But it

190
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 3: landed like perfectly, and I feel like that.

191
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 4: Should count is holding it out? I feel like, just like, yeah,

192
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 4: that counts. That's good.

193
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 3: They just kind of were like, well, this is if

194
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 3: you remove the purse, where would it be. That's where

195
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 3: you gets to hit it, but I just like, well,

196
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 3: anything can happen, And how much do you.

197
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 2: Think that's golf falls worth? I was thinking about that.

198
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 4: Like she wanted to turn to It depends like if

199
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 4: that was Rory, that that ball's worth a lot of money.

200
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 2: I'm just wondering, like, I mean, I guess maybe it depends,

201
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 2: like what if he chokes this whole thing down, he

202
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 2: finishes like fourth place and you're actively watching the value

203
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: of the ball that that poor woman is sitting there

204
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 2: like I just got the souvenir of a lifetime, and

205
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,119
Speaker 2: as she's watching the leaderboard, it's just like their percentage

206
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 2: of money is just going up and down like the

207
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 2: Couchy prediction market.

208
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 4: But it would be like a bell curve because he

209
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 4: could collapse so hard that it's like a historic collapse.

210
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 3: And then the value it's still valuable.

211
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 2: I have the ball that started it all. Yep, Yeah,

212
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: that's it Rory McElroy. We'll see what he does on Sunday.

213
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 2: I know this this, I am not always guaranteed. I

214
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: am now Sunday Masters like you got me, But I

215
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 2: am not always guaranteed to be locked. This is the

216
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 2: best way to get me locked in. Yeah, and show

217
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 2: me a guy that had a massively on Friday who

218
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: then on on Saturday looks like he's just got the

219
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 2: worst night of sleep ever.

220
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 3: And like you said, last year, everybody was so rooting

221
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 3: for him during the Masters because it was a fourteen

222
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 3: year gap Martin from his last major win. Like talk,

223
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 3: a fourteen year gap, and here you are, finally winning

224
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 3: the Masters. We all were rooting for him, and here

225
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 3: he is. It looked like he was gonna run away

226
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: with it. But is it the golf gods just evening

227
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 3: things out? As Dan Byer said in a text.

228
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: To me, that might be what it is. So that's

229
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 2: the thing. The average is all you know. Basically, if

230
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 2: you hit the ball seven at bats in the row,

231
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 2: you're wondering when's the next one going to be? So

232
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 2: Exander Schaffletts, who the ball that went into the in

233
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 2: to that pink tte.

234
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 3: Somebody, somebody made pay.

235
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: Value a little bit. He's currently four under. Coming up next.

236
00:11:54,640 --> 00:12:02,200
Speaker 2: The NBA has issued new rules potentially to try to

237
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 2: solve tanking. And I'm just wondering if anybody actually understands

238
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 2: what's happening here, because for these to be deemed to.

239
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,319

264
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 3: the water, which is worse. He did in the water.

265
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 3: That's what there's somebody did hit a tree. It wasn't him.

266
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:22,959
Speaker 4: Well he could have hit a tree and then went

267
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 4: into the water.

268
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's just rolled into the water, which was just

269
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 3: like oof.

270
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 6: Rough.

271
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 3: It's rough times out there.

272
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 2: That's like the thing like golf is lonely, man, it

273
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 2: really is. It's lonely out there. And if you're just

274
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,680
Speaker 2: out there putting holes in the course and swinging, and

275
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 2: he's just hitting trees and getting into the water, and

276
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: it's just plus stroke plus the stroke come out here

277
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 2: at fists where we dropped the ball. Like, man, it's

278
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 2: like I'm trying to think, actually, what do you think

279
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 2: is lonely or being a picture who can't throw a

280
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 2: strike okay, or golfer that can't hit the ball where

281
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 2: he's trying to hit.

282
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say the picture because the picture other people

283
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 3: on your team are relying on you, okay, And it's

284
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: a little bit harder, you know, even though it's a

285
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 3: very individual sport, like you know, batter like you said,

286
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 3: batter against picture, Like there's matchups and all that. There's

287
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 3: literally people there that are waiting for you to do

288
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: something for them. When it's golfing. You're literally on your own.

289
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: You have to take you grabbed your headphones. Yeah, I

290
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 2: kind of wanted.

291
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 4: To hear what you thought first, but yeah, I mean

292
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 4: it was like, I that's.

293
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: A good question.

294
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 3: It is a good question.

295
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 4: And I actually I think when you're when you frame

296
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 4: it as what's more lonely, I feel like it's golf

297
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 4: because you don't even have any teammates, so that makes.

298
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 2: It lonelier to your point, like your.

299
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 4: Teammates are still supporting you as a picture even if

300
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 4: you're actively letting them down.

301
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 3: But yeah, that's you're.

302
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: The second base is like you got it power.

303
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 3: There's something about being lonely with other people that is

304
00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 3: worse than being lonely by yourself. If that does that

305
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 3: make sense, because you're going to be more harder on

306
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: yourself if you let your team down the cause of it. Yeah,

307
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 3: Like I feel like it's it's so lonely with other

308
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 3: people than by yourself. That's the best way I could

309
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 3: describe it. But it's a great question.

310
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 2: I agree. You know. Actually, I'm gonna I have these

311
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 2: are legitimately I have a million of these. I'm going

312
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 2: to do another one in an hour. I'm gonna do

313
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 2: another one in an hour.

314
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 3: Love it.

315
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 2: It will also be it'll be baseball related but cross sport,

316
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 2: which is like which which which a bowler can't make

317
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 2: a strike? Or yeah, would you rather sports edition? You know,

318
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 2: I know the bucking fits do that? Would you rather

319
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: non sports edition? Maybe we'll just do it a sports edition.

320
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: Love it.

321
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 2: I'm into it all right now? Would you rather not

322
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: fixed tanking teams? To be the answer to? Adam Silver

323
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 2: cannot say yes to like, it's just it's remarkable. So

324
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: Rob g s at the table.

325
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 3: I was just about to tell you to the table,

326
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 3: all right.

327
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 2: So, uh, this week during the NBA's General Manager meeting,

328
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 2: the most interesting thing say, uh, there's concept one right

329
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 2: in terms of how to try to fix tanking. There's

330
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: eighteen teams in the lottery, which is the bottom ten

331
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 2: that missed the playing plus the eight playing teams. The

332
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 2: bottom ten teams have an eight percent chance the next

333
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: eight split and descending order, all eighteen spots drawn. That's

334
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 2: one of the things, and it's kind of like that's

335
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: what other people were talking about. It ends up being

336
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 2: where they're talking about having flattening the odds for the

337
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 2: NBA lottery to where like, if you are the bottom

338
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 2: third or bottom fourth, then you are somehow like you

339
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 2: don't qualify like they want the fifth, sixth and seventh, sixth, seventh, actually,

340
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 2: and what that does and why it's ultimately foolish and

341
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 2: not even quite honestly worth giving much thought to, because

342
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 2: I should say this not worth giving much thought to

343
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 2: in in terms of like, this is not going to

344
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 2: disincentivize people from doing this doing this practice, right, It's

345
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 2: just going to incentivize them instead of aiming for the bottom,

346
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 2: to aim for the bottom third, right, you know what,

347
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 2: like you're still going to be in the same spot

348
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 2: because the fact that the matter is, in today's NBA,

349
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 2: there are not enough ways to improve your team without

350
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: getting a high level draft pick. There's just not enough

351
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 2: ways to do it. You can't do it in free agency,

352
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 2: you can't do it in trades, and so until you

353
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 2: are able to somehow maneuver if you are the Chicago Bulls,

354
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 2: for example, just fired their GM, and lord knows he

355
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,239
Speaker 2: probably deserved it. The job wasn't getting done. But and

356
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 2: let what are they supposed to do? Well? I'm not

357
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 2: saying that what he did was a good thing, but

358
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: the Bulls have been a five hundred team, give or

359
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 2: take since Derek Rowse left r right. They live in

360
00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 2: the play in right, but without losing twenty five have

361
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 2: more games. They don't get to the number one pick

362
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 2: or two pick that I think that Patrick Williams was

363
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 2: the fourth pick in the draft. He buffed it there,

364
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 2: so obviously you'd like to hit that right, hit that pick,

365
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 2: but like you buffed it in that one. But how

366
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 2: do you where are you supposed to maneuver? Like they

367
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 2: made trades throughout the pet I am not defending the

368
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 2: actual functional moves, but when you look at what are

369
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 2: they supposed to do? Would you rather trade back and

370
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 2: forth with the Sacramento Kings eight times? Or would you

371
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 2: try to get Victor Webbin Yama, Because no matter if

372
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 2: you have a Victor Weman, I mean not trading for

373
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: you know, it's just not happening. So all of these,

374
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 2: all of this rigging the lottery does nothing but change

375
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 2: what people are aiming for.

376
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 3: I hear what you're saying, Martin, but let me let

377
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 3: me throw you some just some different thoughts on this.

378
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 3: I feel like the NBA is trying to prevent the

379
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 3: future of more teams tanking like I wish more teams

380
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 3: were like the Bulls were, like the Miami Heat, where

381
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 3: they're not they're trying to get in the play in

382
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,239
Speaker 3: even knowing that they're probably not gonna make it out

383
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 3: of the first round. They're always trying to be competitive.

384
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 3: But the way tanking started this season, it started so

385
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 3: early on, to have one hundred and sixty eight players

386
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 3: the day before the last day of the regular or

387
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 3: the game the second to last game of the regular season,

388
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 3: it just goes to show how early on teams have

389
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 3: checked out. And all I think NBA fans want is

390
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 3: a little bit of competitive play. I used to love

391
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,239
Speaker 3: watching maybe not two star teams, but two teams that

392
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 3: just wanted to go out there and try and win

393
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 3: a game. Now I don't know who's going to compete

394
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 3: in who is not, So why should the Suns, the Trailblazers,

395
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 3: the Clippers, and the Warriors not have an equal opportunity

396
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 3: to get a high draft pick, knowing damn well that

397
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 3: whoever is going to face the Thunder or the Spurs

398
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 3: are not going to get out of the first round.

399
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:09,159
Speaker 2: Because ultimately I understand the argument, but my thing is sure,

400
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 2: get a draft pick, and like whether that pick goes

401
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 2: to those teams or the teams that aren't in the

402
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 2: play in, it's really dependent on who you have who

403
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 2: the pool is available for, right, because like, wasn't nobody

404
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 2: taking for Anthony Bennett, right, nobody was, Like I guess

405
00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,199
Speaker 2: the Wizards have been taking in a perpetuity, but like

406
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 2: they are not perfect, but for some quite some time,

407
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 2: but they weren't tanking with the idea that we're going

408
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 2: to get Zachary Reisha Schet. The idea is that we're

409
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 2: going to try to get a guy who Anthony Edwards,

410
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 2: Kay Cunningham, Victor wen Binyama is the best example.

411
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 3: Victor win Ba is like an anomaly, right, Like when

412
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 3: there's nobody that's gonna be like that.

413
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 2: But even Anthony Edwards and Kay Cunningham, Kay Cunningham took

414
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 2: a little while to get through. He has historic losing,

415
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 2: but you see he's the best player on the one seaton.

416
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: You've seen Anthony Edwards be the best player on a

417
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 2: conference final finisher. Right, those guys were number one over picks.

418
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 3: But I think everybody knows the chances of you getting again.

419
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 3: It's it's like I can't knock the bulls in the heat,

420
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 3: who I joke, are always just in the play in

421
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 3: because they, like you mentioned, they try to make moves.

422
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 3: The Sacramento Kings have tried to make moves, and then

423
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 3: the Kings this year definitely tanked very early. But those

424
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: other teams, and I feel like the NBA can only

425
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 3: imagine that this is gonna get worse. How early teams

426
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 3: are starting to tank, so they're trying to prevent that.

427
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 3: I think by saying this, I'm not saying it's a

428
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 3: good I'm not saying it's a great idea, Martin. But

429
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 3: something has to be done so that the tanking doesn't

430
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 3: start in December.

431
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 2: I put it like this, if winning was food, right,

432
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 2: like winning in the NBA was food, you only have

433
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 2: one ticket or two tickets per to go to the

434
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: grocery store each time. Right, that's your draft picks. You

435
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 2: can go to the grocery ticket, leave whatever with whatever

436
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 2: you want. Now, obviously you pick some people get those

437
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 2: people get the roasty chicken. Some people get a Hershey's bar. Right,

438
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: So like one of us, I'm not healthy, some don't work, right,

439
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 2: But like the only way to get into the store

440
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 2: is to have the ticket sure. So until you have

441
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 2: entered more ways for people to walk into that store,

442
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,400
Speaker 2: to be able to walk into the grocery store, you're

443
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 2: always gonna have people trying to sneak in the back door, right,

444
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 2: You're because the supply, the demand is so much greater

445
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 2: than what the supply is. There's always going to be

446
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 2: a black market for you know in that scenario.

447
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 3: Yes, you're you're presenting something.

448
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 2: You've got to get a lot more.

449
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I get what you're saying about that, but at

450
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 3: least it's given the illusion that listen, you for not tanking, forgetting,

451
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 3: you're gonna have the same opportunity as those guys. I

452
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 3: hear what you're saying, because no one's really no one's

453
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 3: really gaining anything by doing this, right, No one is

454
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 3: gaining an edge, nobody. You're actually just making no worse

455
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 3: for everybody. But you've got to You've got to try

456
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 3: and prevent what's happened this year. You have to try.

457
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 2: Well, I do know this one guy who would have

458
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 2: been super anti tanking if has to do so, when

459
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 2: in fact was askid do song is why he left

460
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 2: his first NBA job. He will not be asked to

461
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 2: take in his next one. We'll see how much success

462
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 2: or failures thinks he may have. I think it would

463
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 2: be pretty damn good. But I know this, he can

464
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 2: be better than Steve de Saga doing updates on a

465
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 2: Saturday night, not tanking tonight.

466
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,360
Speaker 7: No three of us here and perform. You know, it's

467
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 7: a really bad sign for a professional sport. This is

468
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,400
Speaker 7: an entertainment product. By the way, we need to say

469
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 7: that again out loud. If we actually care more than

470
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 7: the players and teams involved, if full prices are being

471
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 7: paid and full effort and full rosters are not being

472
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 7: put forth, what you said needs to be said again

473
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 7: out loud. Just last night, at least one hundred and

474
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 7: sixty eight NBA players we're out out for illness or

475
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 7: didn't feel good, or you're a member of the Memphis Grizzlies.

476
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,199
Speaker 7: We had fourteen people out Memphis. I looked it up

477
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 7: in mid January. Their record was eighteen and twenty three.

478
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 7: In the three months since, they've won seven games.

479
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 2: And see, I would say, like and one of the

480
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 2: things that the NBA just loses at, Like if I'm

481
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 2: a Browns fan, for example, it's been over since week three. Okay,

482
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 2: I know that it was over by week three. Miles

483
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:16,679
Speaker 2: Garrett is still playing. But week sixteen, I'm watching Miles Garrett.

484
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 2: Week sixteen, Oh, what do I have a quarterback?

485
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 5: I don't know.

486
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch right, I'm gonna see they would be

487
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 2: playing UFL players. If the NFL is the NBA, they

488
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 2: will be signing UFL players to play in regular season games.

489
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 2: For what purpose do you to get to potentially pick

490
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 2: second instead of I hate it? You know it's horrendous.

504
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 7: In each conference, the number seven seed will host the

505
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 7: number eight winner goes to the playoffs as the seventh seed.

506
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 7: The losers of seven versus eight next week still get

507
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 7: one more chance to get in, hosting the winner of

508
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,399

Speaker 7: ten different seeds could change on Sunday based on that

522
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,720

564
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, how did you if you're not going to

565
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 3: play in this last game, like onto takompo, if you're

566
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 3: why would you go to this Bucks game? I know

567
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 3: it's I know they're not playing in the playoffs, but

568
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 3: why would you go to a Milwaukee Bucks end of

569
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 3: the regular season game if you're not even gonna watch? Honest?

570
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 2: One benefit that you do get at the last game

571
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 2: of the year at least, uh in the last games

572
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 2: of the year that I had attended, which was a

573
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 2: few in Detroit. Uh the oh god, what do you

574
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 2: call the spirit crew? The spirit like the people who

575
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 2: are on the court, the cheerleaders. Yeah, spirits are just

576
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 2: pelting you with all types of stuff. I mean I

577
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 2: left with more pistons. I'm walking out arms full, like

578
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 2: MONSI for with their Starbucks order of piston stuff from

579
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 2: that last game, because I mean there's like half, there's

580
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 2: like a third of the people in there. They're just

581
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 2: we're not taking it with us.

582
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 3: In these situations the Pistons were not in the playoffs.

583
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,479
Speaker 3: Oh okay, because I was you know, yeah, I've been

584
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 3: to regular season final games for the Clippers. That's never happened,

585
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 3: but I guess we've been in the playoffs.

586
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 2: Don't want so you gotta be careful who you invite

587
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 2: into work, because Hubert Davis had somebody watching practice, and

588
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: that's somebody is now the new head coach at the

589
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 2: University of North Carolina. Let's hear what Michael Malone had

590
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 2: to say after taking a job.

591
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 8: It wasn't an easy decision. But what I kept thinking

592
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 8: about was I have a chance to be a part

593
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 8: of something special, the history, tradition, uh to be a

594
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 8: part of something much bigger than myself. As I said

595
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 8: a few minutes ago, this was the only college job

596
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 8: I'd ever considered. You know, if any other job, I

597
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 8: wouldn't even answer the phone.

598
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 2: So one thing is for sure. My boy decked out

599
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 2: in the true North CA Carolina blue and white guitar,

600
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 2: heels all up and down, and he's been that since

601
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 2: his daughter committed. Right, Yeah, his daughter plays volleyball there.

602
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 3: He already has a shirt or two.

603
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 2: Right, he's very and it's very much college dad.

604
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 3: But what he you see what he's.

605
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 2: Definitely got right there, that's what you want to hear.

606
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 2: Like I would walk across burning coals backwards through a

607
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 2: snow covered mountaintop to come take this job, or you

608
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 2: kidd me, I wouldn't even consider another college job. It's

609
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 2: this place is so special to me that I wouldn't

610
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 2: even think about it, because that's what it's got to be. Like,

611
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: don't don't do me like Tommy Lloyd, do me like

612
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 2: Dufty May. I'm not discussing a single job. I'm working

613
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 2: right here, absolutely, you know what I'm saying. Tommy Woyd

614
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 2: was like a I'm have a good coach when I leave.

615
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 2: I don't know what you'll talking about, right Like.

616
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, make me believe it, make me believe it.

617
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 2: I know it ain't all true, make me believe it.

618
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 2: Sell it.

619
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: Tell me that how great you're going to be.

620
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 2: And I do think that Mike Malone, Michael Malone would

621
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 2: rather be an NBA coach, coach, But I do also

622
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 2: think that he's being sincere and that the ability to

623
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 2: be bigger than himself, the ability to he is the

624
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 2: son of a coach. Apparently his dad, when his dad

625
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 2: was gonna mentoring him, was all about Dean Smith in

626
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 2: North Carolina and four corners and all this and that

627
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna work. College basketball is full of yellers.

628
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 2: Mike Malone feels like he always wanted to yell a

629
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 2: little bit more than he really got to, right, Like

630
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 2: when he was coaching Denver. Part of it your coaching,

631
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 2: yo kids, but he really wanted to yell a little

632
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 2: bit more together, right, a little bit more than he

633
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: wanted to. I think he's gonna be really good at that,

634
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 2: and if they can get some good recruiting around him,

635
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 2: because secretly, when you look at kind of the other

636
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 2: Blue Blads, North Carolina recruiting, in my opinion, has been

637
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 2: down just in terms of guys that go pro and

638
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 2: go big like big time pros. But I think just

639
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:51,480
Speaker 2: on a day by day, game by game basis, we're

640
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 2: looking at one of the top, like ex and O's

641
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: top ten coach of college basketball right.

642
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 3: Now, I would agree with that. I saw some mixed

643
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 3: reviews on our heel fans or probably alumni when this happened,

644
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 3: and for me, I was like, really, I was like,

645
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 3: I feel like this is exactly the type of coach

646
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: you would want to come in and take over in

647
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 3: the sense that we always ask what have you done

648
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 3: for me lately? Well, he just won an NBA championship

649
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 3: with Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, where clearly he was

650
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 3: fired because he wasn't gonna put up with bs.

651
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 2: The issues were the front off, correct, Like how.

652
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 3: That seems like a perfect person that you would want

653
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 3: walking through your.

654
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 2: Doors, especially because in college, you're not gonna have the

655
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 2: same issue. No, you're gonna have the adit deal with potentially. Correct,

656
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 2: But when you sign a contract that big guess what,

657
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 2: you're the boss.

658
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 3: You know how to deal it with stars? Do you

659
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 3: know how to deal with mega stars? Like this is

660
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 3: such a I was surprised to see some of the

661
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 3: negative feelings from some tar Hiell fans.

662
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 2: Oh we go wan?

663
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 3: Did you want to?

664
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 9: Well?

665
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 2: Do you do?

666
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 4: You guys have any issue with the way that he

667
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,239
Speaker 4: started that sound that we played where he said it

668
00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 4: wasn't an easy decision.

669
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 3: No, No, I just don't think he was expecting this

670
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 3: to be a decision he had to make right because

671
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 3: that his life is about to change. Also, what he

672
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 3: meant to say is this is going to be a

673
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 3: big decision for my daughter if she decides to stay

674
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 3: here now that I'm coming.

675
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, she's gonna transfer now, like this.

676
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 3: Was a tough decision because in reality, I'm going to

677
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:17,480
Speaker 3: change her.

678
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 2: Life like well also too, I just don't think I

679
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,040
Speaker 2: don't think that. I think I read that as I

680
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,959
Speaker 2: am not taking the University of North Carolina head coaching

681
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 2: job lightly. I'm not like, I'm not, I'm this. This

682
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: is not like I in order for me to give

683
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: the job the gravity and importance that I that is

684
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 2: going to require is gonna Hell no, it's not an

685
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: easy choice. Yeah, yeah, because it's not like it's not

686
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 2: like he over there volunteering on.

687
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 4: ESPN and he might have also meant like just the

688
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 4: decision to make the jump to college, not un C

689
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 4: specifically being a hard choice. It was the fact that

690
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 4: I'm you know, giving up being an NBA coach, so.

691
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 3: That giving up being a just an analyst where you

692
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 3: don't have to devote your extra time and money and energy.

693
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 3: You gonna go coach and you're expected to deliver immediately.

694
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 3: It's gonna going back, you know after after maybe I'm

695
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 3: gonna say, like he was taking it easy as an

696
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 3: analyst compared to being a coach, whether it's the NBA

697
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 3: going to.

698
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 2: College as somebody who moonlights as an analyst on the

699
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 2: weekends and watches people do it every day. Let me

700
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 2: tell you something, Being a professional athletes a lot harder.

701
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,240
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Being a professional coach is a lot lot harder.

702
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: Yes so.

703
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 2: But I take it as I think that he desperately

704
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 2: wanted to be back coaching. He always kind of seemed

705
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 2: to me to be a fish a little out of water.

706
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 2: Not not necessarily for his skills right now, I'm saying

707
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 2: he was unrecognizable in the booth, but he just seemed

708
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 2: like a guy who just wanted to be back in

709
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,919
Speaker 2: the arena, right, And and that's the vibe I get

710
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,840
Speaker 2: from him. He's coaches coach, right. He really feels like

711
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 2: he's gonna dive in here. And I think that one

712
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 2: of the things you alluded to some of the conversation

713
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,399
Speaker 2: from the tar Hul alumni. And you know, I can

714
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 2: understand having a slight bit of concern. Wait a minute,

715
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 2: we're gonna hire to fire pro coach. We just did that,

716
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 2: and he came with a twenty four year old girlfriend

717
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 2: and no wings and embarrassment and we had Michael Jordan

718
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 2: walking out of the stadium before halftime in Game one, right,

719
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 2: You know, it's like this looks terrible, but that's not

720
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 2: what this is. Michael Malone could still coach in the

721
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 2: NBA today and would probably still be the coaching that

722
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,319
Speaker 2: done for Nuggets if they had just fired Calvin Booth Right,

723
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 2: it's I get the parallels, and it's a very much

724
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,799
Speaker 2: fuse like they're kind of running the same play. The

725
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 2: difference is this one. This one's gonna work. That's it.

726
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 2: This one's gonna work.

727
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 3: I think so too.

728
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 2: Play action covering up next. I'm in. We're both in

729
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 2: on this, but uh covered, we'll find Bill Belichick guilty

730
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 2: of something more than likely in sports code.

731
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,840
Speaker 1: You don't listening to Fox Sports Radio radio.

732
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,439
Speaker 2: You know what the worst part about losing a six

733
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 2: shot lead that the Masters is on Saturday. You gotta

734
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 2: go back and play on Sunday.

735
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,879
Speaker 3: He can redeem himself and he's still at the If

736
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 3: he was not at the top of the leader board,

737
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 3: he maybe would have a harder time tomorrow, but he

738
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 3: still is. He's like, I did so bad, I did

739
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 3: the worst set of everybody, and I'm still at the top.

740
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,919
Speaker 3: It's okay, No, it could be worse.

741
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 2: Bridget Condon and uh, you know his bucking Fits in

742
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: the slot ahead of us. Bridget Condy was filling in

743
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 2: for Fits as he does his indoor football. So fun, right,

744
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 2: it's you know, let me not get.

745
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 3: Sidetracked, but so fun.

746
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 2: So. Bridget Condy was talking about how Rory mentally, a

747
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:46,319
Speaker 2: lot of athletes visualize positivity and that he visualizes negativity,

748
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 2: and like, what's the worst that happened? How's the worst

749
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 2: thing that can go wrong? How do I rebound from that?

750
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 2: Personally would not be my strategy, However, I am very

751
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 2: interested to see because they couldn't have really, to your point,

752
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 2: he is the top of the leaderboard, but you're going

753
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 2: to sleep tonight thinking they couldn't have gone when any

754
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 2: freaking worse And I'm still at the top, and I'm

755
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 2: still at the top. So we'll see sigh.

756
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 3: Relief, believe it or not after such a terrible round.

757
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 2: We'll see if it ends up being a sigh relief

758
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 2: for more tears of horror. Let's do sports court. The

759
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 2: defense is wrong.

760
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: Sports court six.

761
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 4: That the sports court, you guys know the drill. I've

762
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,280
Speaker 4: got a few people from around the world of sports

763
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 4: here that are accused in our sports court, and it's

764
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,239
Speaker 4: up to you too, the jury to tell me whether

765
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,360
Speaker 4: they are guilty or innocent after I present to you

766
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 4: their case. So let's start with Shams Sharania stands accused.

767
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,720
Speaker 2: Oh guilty, Let's go though.

768
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:47,760
Speaker 4: Seems like it seems like ESPN senior NBA insider Shams

769
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 4: Sharani is in the middle of a bit of a

770
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 4: feud with Bucks coach Doc Rivers. Sham's published that article

771
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 4: last week about Doc addressing the team and telling them

772
00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 4: to google him and his accomplishments and all that.

773
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 2: Well.

774
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 4: On Fandel Sports Sports Network yesterday, Doc revealed.

775
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,240
Speaker 9: This, I made a joke before all starts where I said, honest,

776
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 9: three pounds Champs took that so personal that he actually

777
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 9: called the Bucks and yelled at them to take it down.

778
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 9: The NBA called the Bucks and are like, Doms wants

779
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:19,959
Speaker 9: us to tell you this, but we really don't care.

780
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: In the NBA.

781
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 2: In the NBA posted it.

782
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 9: So I've heard from ten different people that have said, oh,

783
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 9: Shams is going to do a revenge article on you, guys,

784
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 9: in on you, And I was like, Okay.

785
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 4: All right, that's enough. So Sean Sharania guilty or not guilty.

786
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,399
Speaker 2: He's guilty, but is doc. So is doc like our

787
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 2: revenge being children. Let me let me tell you something.

788
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 2: You know what didn't need He had six people, they

789
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 2: had six different sources said they talked about this meeting,

790
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,399
Speaker 2: and you didn't. It didn't matter what you said. Power

791
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 2: This is sort was getting out. Yeah, you got to

792
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 2: be able to take a joke.

793
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Sham's is guilty, guilty, more guilty. But I agree

794
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 3: with You're both a little guilty, a little petty, a

795
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 3: little childish like, but Sham's is more guilty for sure.

796
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,399
Speaker 4: Next up, Todd Monkin stands accused. So a few weeks ago,

797
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 4: if you guys remember, at the NFL Owners meetings, Brown's

798
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 4: head coach Todd Monkin was absent from the annual head

799
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 4: Coach's photo and it was reported after the fact that

800
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 4: he'd missed it because he was getting a haircut for

801
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 4: the photo itself. So he was asked about it this week.

802
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't.

803
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 10: I really don't give it. I mean I did nothing

804
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 10: to do with me. I mean they moved the meeting.

805
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 10: I didn't miss it. I was just trying to get

806
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 10: a sweet haircut. I mean that's what I was trying

807
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 10: to do. And then they moved the meeting. Now you

808
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 10: can blame that. I should have bet the meeting when

809
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 10: they moved it up, and my asse would have known

810
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:35,760
Speaker 10: that's when it was. Yeah, okay, I gotcha.

811
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 4: So Todd Monkin guilty or not guilty if he.

812
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 3: Really did did they not tell him ahead of time

813
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 3: of moving the meeting? Whoever didn't tell him, he's guilty.

814
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 2: I believe that the descripbancy was the Pacific time versus

815
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 2: Central time.

816
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 3: Oh oh, he's guilty. Guilty.

817
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 2: Not only is he guilty, he's guilty. It's starting out

818
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 2: very hi critically, old Todd boy as because I tell

819
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 2: you it is. Let's let a team player let the

820
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 2: final somebody's final on the final fifty three to be

821
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 2: late to that picture. Let it be a backup linebacker.

822
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 2: Let's see how he plays if he does. Push his

823
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 2: ass in jail squeezing one more.

824
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 4: We've all been operating under the assumption for the last

825
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 4: few months that Fernando Mendoza will go number one overall

826
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 4: to the Raiders. But Kirk Cousins stands accused here because

827
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,800
Speaker 4: he let it slip on Good Morning Football this week quote.

828
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 4: I think Fernando will make a great addition to our

829
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 4: team when talking about Mendoza, might have just given away

830
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 4: their draft plans right there, Kirk. The draft hasn't happened yet.

831
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,840
Speaker 4: What do you guys think, Kirk Cousin's guilty or not guilty?

832
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 3: Not guilty.

833
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:43,280
Speaker 2: I did not do it, absolutely not. Yeah, these allegations

834
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 2: are Kirk Cousins saying Fernando's gonna be great for the Raid.

835
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 2: It's just like saying, man, it's gonna be awesome when

836
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 2: the sun comes up tomorrow.

837
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:56,840
Speaker 11: Please don't listening to Fox Sports Radio radio dram who wait,

838
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 11: a lot of this way too much NFL drama going

839
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 11: on for it to be April eleventh, maybe ten days ago.

840
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,839
Speaker 2: It's like this type of drama on April Fool's Day.

841
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 2: But Lord at Mercy, Martin Weiss, Monsey Blais here on

842
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio on a Fox Sports Saturday Masters Weekend,

843
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 2: the w NBA expanding Moncey.

844
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 3: Hmmm, that seems like a smart idea.

845
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 2: We'll get to that in just a moment. The NBA

846
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 2: is trying to solve tanking by not solving the root

847
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 2: issue at all. Wance said, I don't care do it anyway?

848
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 7: I do?

849
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 3: I do? Yeah, I try something. You know what I mean, like,

850
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 3: I've been defending the NBA the last like two three

851
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 3: years because it's been a bad product, and I'm they're

852
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 3: starting to lose me.

853
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:48,520
Speaker 2: I think on a I think saying the NBA is

854
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:53,840
Speaker 2: a bad product is uh is overstated. But this is

855
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 2: what I think is true for the league because I

856
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 2: think when you're looking at like what the average product this,

857
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 2: I think you turn on like average baseball, you know,

858
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 2: you turn on two five hundred baseball teams, the quality

859
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 2: of play will be all right, you know, the quality

860
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 2: of play will be decent, right, you know what I'm saying.

861
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 2: And you can find even if you're watching. You know,

862
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 2: the Pirates have started the year off different for them,

863
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 2: winning some games. But like even when the Pirates like

864
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 2: last year and they're like, oh, we know we're gonna

865
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 2: stick from day one, you can at least flip on

866
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 2: Paul schemes.

867
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 3: Or absolutely Cruis positives to it.

868
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 2: There's something there to watch, you know. And it's a

869
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 2: couple of years ago and the Reds one of the

870
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 2: worst teams in baseball. You know, you flip it on

871
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,240
Speaker 2: and you got their Elie Della cruise.

872
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 3: That's the thing Martin that in baseball, they play, they play,

873
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 3: the Stars play on bad teams. You can pay to

874
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,800
Speaker 3: go watch an Angels game right now and you're probably

875
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,399
Speaker 3: gonna get to watch Mike Trout, like you're gonna watch

876
00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 3: these sad.

877
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,040
Speaker 2: Sentence that matters so much more and ten years ago

878
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 2: I got you. But the thing that if you look

879
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,279
Speaker 2: at the to me, the high level NBA matchups, when

880
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 2: the NBA is right, when the NBA, when all the

881
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 2: different ingredients are put into the beaker, you know, we

882
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 2: got the two par hydrogen and one part option, we

883
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 2: mix it all together like that, when you have that

884
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 2: NBA it's to me it's perfect. But like, there are

885
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 2: too many instances where I should that is not consistent

886
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 2: enough to me. Like like we were talking about the

887
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 2: NFL just about every week, if you are watching Sunday

888
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 2: at one o'clock, le'll be free phrase at every week

889
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,760
Speaker 2: before like week twelve where they start pimping out games

890
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 2: to Thursday and Friday. And like when you have the

891
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 2: typical Sunday one o'clock slate you can watch, there will

892
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 2: be one or two good finishes, right, there'll be, and

893
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 2: then then those are not necessarily tied to the games

894
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 2: that were deemed like the biggest going into the week.

895
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 2: Right on any given day in a baseball game, you're

896
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,359
Speaker 2: watching this, and I think that, like when I am

897
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 2: on NBA Tuesday, there's too many options, there's too many

898
00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 2: bad options. I gotta look too hard to find the

899
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 2: perfect NBA game. And I do think there's more than

900
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 2: people let on to be, but I gotta look too

901
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 2: hard to find it.

902
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 3: The predictability of the NBA is bad. That's what it is.

903
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,479
Speaker 3: In other sports NFL, like you just said, baseball, there's

904
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 3: gonna be something. You just don't know what it is.

905
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,799
Speaker 3: The fact that you're over here saying that you have

906
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 3: to scroll and try and find the competitive match. The

907
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 3: predictability of the NBA right now is bad.

908
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 2: So what also has been predictable this offseason drama between

909
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Eagles. If you have paid attention over the

910
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 2: last thirty four games or so of the regular season,

911
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 2: there seems to have been a little bit of an

912
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 2: issue between AJ Brown and like at all really like

913
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 2: the remainder you sure? And then again, as we're talking

914
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:51,399
Speaker 2: about unnamed sources, we saw the reports come out about

915
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 2: Derek Gunn, or from Derek Gunn rather about Jalen hurts

916
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 2: and his inabilities and lacks of wanting to change. So

917
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 2: that in the season. Then saw the ESPN piece by

918
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 2: Jeremy Fowler and Tim mcmahonus that further outline that this

919
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 2: offseason and it had that big expose all this, and

920
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:17,240
Speaker 2: then that was my favorite part, Jeff McLain afterwards saying,

921
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 2: I think Jalen has heard the message. So you're starting

922
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,479
Speaker 2: to hear just like I think we're starting to find

923
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 2: where the sources are coming from. If you do a

924
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,720
Speaker 2: little bit of math and a little bit of division

925
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 2: carry the one, you can figure out who's talking to who.

926
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:33,320
Speaker 2: But that sound I had to say when that article

927
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 2: came out, we watched AJ Brown, Like my take was,

928
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 2: this is how AJ Brown could blow up are con

929
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:46,759
Speaker 2: seemingly blow up the locker room right by saying we

930
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 2: need work on our past, we need to do this,

931
00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 2: we need to do that. Well, what's what's what's wrong

932
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 2: with the team? The passing game? What do you mean

933
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 2: you need to be doing in dynamic there? I'm reading

934
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 2: book What's on the sidelines all this. The reason why

935
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 2: he was able to do that is because people agreed

936
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 2: with them. Like ultimately people agreed with him. Nobody was

937
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 2: telling them how you need to stop it. There's no

938
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 2: We're also like this, not much we can do about it,

939
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 2: but people agreed with them. So when I see things

940
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 2: like the Eagles trading for Dontavian Wicks, cool man, sure,

941
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,680
Speaker 2: Sean Man and I know, yeah, you guys played together.

942
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 2: You can coach. Yeah, coach you right into this. AJ

943
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 2: Brown will not be a Philadelphia Eagle Week one of

944
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,720
Speaker 2: this season. It also just won't happen until after June first.

945
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if that's a hot take, right,

946
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 3: Like you just mentioned all of the issues that have

947
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:39,280
Speaker 3: been filled within the Eagles locker room for a while.

948
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:43,520
Speaker 3: This is not new. We've heard multiple incidences. Whether you

949
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,480
Speaker 3: want to look back at when AJ Brown was reading

950
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 3: a book in the middle of a game on the

951
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,560
Speaker 3: side from the hit piece for Jalen Hurts and what

952
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 3: came out specifically about not wanting to change their style

953
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 3: of game. However you want to look at it, this

954
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 3: is not a hot take. Yeah, it doesn't seem like

955
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 3: AJ Brown wants to be there. It doesn't seem like

956
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 3: the Eagles necessarily care to try and make amends.

957
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:12,520
Speaker 2: The thing. I don't even know. I think that if

958
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 2: we just do brass facts, what do we absolutely.

959
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 3: Know that there's drama.

960
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 2: Right and we absolutely like AJ Brown has not, to

961
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,800
Speaker 2: my knowledge, requested a trade. I don't know if he

962
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 2: necessarily wants to be out of Philly. I think he definitely.

963
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 2: You can definitively say he wants the situation to be different.

964
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 3: You can definitively say he's unhappy.

965
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 2: Whether it's leaving Philly or somebody else leaving Philly, Which

966
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,279
Speaker 2: is the point I was trying to get to, like,

967
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if like I don't know if AJ

968
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,680
Speaker 2: Brown doesn't have a good relationship with Nick here yet,

969
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:42,360
Speaker 2: Like I don't know if they have a bad you

970
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like, there's no I don't think

971
00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 2: do you do you think that there's evidence of that?

972
00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 3: Uh that video where Nick Sirianni at the in the playoffs.

973
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 3: I want to say maybe at the end of the

974
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 3: regular season, he's like walking towards a camera guy and

975
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 3: he like says something where he acts like all pompous,

976
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 3: and then AJ Brown gives him a look like really, bro.

977
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 3: That was a moment where I was like, if even

978
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:04,360
Speaker 3: AJ Brown can't get with this man in that moment

979
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 3: that was not a good sighting. Now, is it very specific? Yes,

980
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 3: And you're probably right. Maybe I was looking too much

981
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,239
Speaker 3: into it, but I remember thinking, like the fact that

982
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 3: AJ Brown gave him that look.

983
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 2: And you can have sideline moments that aren't necessarily indicative

984
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 2: of your entire relationship. You'll remember Travis Galzie chest bumping

985
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 2: Andy Reed it, you know, and when Travis and Taylor

986
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 2: get married, Andy Reid will be right there with that

987
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:30,600
Speaker 2: big money.

988
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 3: Maybe marrying them maybe wouldn't shock me, you know what

989
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 3: I'm saying. That would be well, but it wouldn't surprise me. No.

990
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 3: There Obviously all of this is speculation, but I do

991
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,680
Speaker 3: feel like Nick Sirianni is his own antagonist. And so

992
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:47,600
Speaker 3: the fact more importantly that there's stories that Jaylen Brown

993
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:51,799
Speaker 3: and a Jalen Brown, Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown were

994
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 3: really close friends at one point and then things just

995
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 3: went bad. That's not a good sign.

996
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 2: Well, there there's an age old adage that you know,

997
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 2: we come across it more often than professional athletes probably,

998
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 2: but you don't go into business with your friends.

999
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 3: Yep.

1000
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 2: But they say don't go into business with your friends.

1001
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,919
Speaker 2: It's a different relationship when you got to work every day,

1002
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 2: it's all the grounds is always green.

1003
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:20,359
Speaker 3: This was successful. You won.

1004
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 2: But I think longer and longer you look at that.

1005
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 2: It's the story of Sheai Kwan Barkley.

1006
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 3: Yep. But but you still, but you still you know

1007
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like, that's that's what's hard for me

1008
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 3: in this situation where it's like, you guys had success

1009
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 3: and you've been having success. How many times has have

1010
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 3: the Eagles even been to the super Bowl already? They

1011
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:45,359
Speaker 3: haven't won, but they won one. You got to saying, like, true,

1012
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:48,400
Speaker 3: it wasn't just one off. You have been there multiple times.

1013
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,319
Speaker 3: You've gotten far. The success has been there, it's been

1014
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 3: was palatable Is that the word I'm looking for?

1015
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 7: What is it?

1016
00:49:54,520 --> 00:49:56,880
Speaker 3: Where you can taste it? You can it's right there,

1017
00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 3: Come on, it's right there, like.

1018
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 2: Palat something that you can eat that's like palatable, is

1019
00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 2: like something that you can like broccoli as a kid,

1020
00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:06,959
Speaker 2: like you can you can.

1021
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:08,839
Speaker 3: Get it down, you can get okay, maybe I'll though.

1022
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:10,319
Speaker 3: What I was like, it was like, you're right, you're

1023
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 3: right there, and you've had multiple moments that you can

1024
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:16,280
Speaker 3: be like we were just here, we had this success.

1025
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,400
Speaker 3: We won this time we had this. It's not like

1026
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 3: it was a one off situation.

1027
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:25,479
Speaker 2: So I honestly think that it was. And I don't

1028
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 2: know why. And this is not necessarily me addressing it

1029
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,799
Speaker 2: right to what you are saying, but there has been

1030
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 2: a common refrain. And when you hear me say that,

1031
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 2: she'll be like, yeah, people said it all the time,

1032
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 2: but people people Jalen Hurts, I'll played Patrick Mahomes in

1033
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 2: two Super Bowls. No he didn't, all right, Like that

1034
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,080
Speaker 2: just didn't happen in a game in which it went

1035
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,400
Speaker 2: to overtime. Right, in a game in which the Eagles

1036
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 2: lost on a holding call James Bradberry a holding call,

1037
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts had a fumble return for a touchdown. Yeah right,

1038
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,799
Speaker 2: Like Flatle did not out play Mahomes in the Super

1039
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:03,799
Speaker 2: Bowl lost number one, Right, but.

1040
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 3: In the box score he did. That's what people look at.

1041
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 2: I watched the game, you know what I'm saying. I

1042
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 2: watched the game, but I watch you know what, and

1043
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 2: there was never I remember I remember vividly being this

1044
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 2: at a friend of mine house in Longvies and I

1045
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:17,719
Speaker 2: turned that halftime and I said, you already to watch

1046
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:21,160
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan like you already to watch what Michael Jordan's

1047
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 2: about to do, and Mahomes and them walked them down

1048
00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 2: in that in that second half of it, and it's okay, cool,

1049
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 2: people lose super Bowls. It happens. Then you go and

1050
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,560
Speaker 2: you have the year where they kind of flame out

1051
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 2: in the wildcard very like like that wildcard game to

1052
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 2: me was Tampa was so ready and Philly just was

1053
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:48,400
Speaker 2: just non competitive after like the first quarter. Then you

1054
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,440
Speaker 2: had Saikwon Barkley, who was one of the best running

1055
00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:54,440
Speaker 2: back seasons in the next in the past ten years,

1056
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,760
Speaker 2: and he runs for nearly it almost breaks some freaking

1057
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 2: rushing record, that's how good he was. Breaks the rushing record.

1058
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 2: The office line is maning people and they run through

1059
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 2: the NFC and then Sekwon goes back to normal and

1060
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,839
Speaker 2: guess what another while they didn't lose in weill Card,

1061
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,840
Speaker 2: but again, a season that has discontent, a season that

1062
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,799
Speaker 2: feels like it doesn't pass the Snell test, and then

1063
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,840
Speaker 2: when they get to the postseason or even late in

1064
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,280
Speaker 2: the season, it's like, well, we know what the Eagles

1065
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 2: are gonna do, right, And when you look at the outlier,

1066
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:29,319
Speaker 2: to me, it is shee Kwon Barkley, who is one

1067
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 2: of the premier talents in the NFL. Even when he

1068
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,200
Speaker 2: was in New York, there was ever a down in

1069
00:52:33,280 --> 00:52:35,880
Speaker 2: this Saquon great, It's like, how much can he impact

1070
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:36,399
Speaker 2: winning here?

1071
00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,839
Speaker 3: The problem with me, it's just kind of like going

1072
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:43,279
Speaker 3: with the Saquon Barkley. It's hard for me to not

1073
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 3: look at Nick Sirianni and not look at the who

1074
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 3: was the offensive coordinator? I'm blaking for the Eagles. That's

1075
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:49,320
Speaker 3: not there anymore this past.

1076
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 2: Year, Kevin Petula, Yes, thank you.

1077
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 3: The fact that they did not have answers or expect

1078
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 3: the season where everybody knew what Saquon Barkley could do,

1079
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 3: so you needed to come in with a different game plan.

1080
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,719
Speaker 3: I can't put it on That's what.

1081
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 2: They didn't have a different game. They never had a

1082
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,800
Speaker 2: different game, which it's a difference was Saquon Barkley is

1083
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:13,840
Speaker 2: jumping over people, going backwards, spinning break attack.

1084
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 3: That's what you weren't thinking. You needed to have a

1085
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:19,319
Speaker 3: different game plan going into a year where you won

1086
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 3: because of Saquon Barkley. You didn't expect every team to

1087
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 3: know exactly what he was gonna do.

1088
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 2: Listen, they knew. I imagine they went into the year one

1089
00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,919
Speaker 2: with Saquon thinking that, but I was somebody was able

1090
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 2: to block it. The ultimately, to me, if the problem

1091
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 2: has always been with the Eagles, in my opinion, it

1092
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 2: just seems that the quarterback does not throw the ball

1093
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 2: over the middle of the field. And if you had

1094
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:45,720
Speaker 2: that look, I want us to remember the leasion of Boom.

1095
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 2: And part of the reason why people talked about how

1096
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 2: great the lesion of Boom was is because Richard Sherman

1097
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:57,959
Speaker 2: shut off a third of the field, Darryl Reeves could

1098
00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:00,319
Speaker 2: sign for whoever he held down near one to a

1099
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 2: one year contrary just mercenary because a third of the

1100
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:07,880
Speaker 2: field from the numbers end was inaccessible to the quarterback,

1101
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:10,880
Speaker 2: and he was one of the highest paid corners, that

1102
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:13,640
Speaker 2: one of the best corners in the NFL history. So

1103
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 2: when you tell me that there's an NFL quarterback that

1104
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,359
Speaker 2: ops out of a third of the field, you might

1105
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,280
Speaker 2: as well have an All Pro defender out there, because

1106
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 2: that's what the impact of that would be. You might

1107
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 2: as well have You might as well have Ray Lewis

1108
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 2: right there, because he's not throwing over the middle of

1109
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 2: the field. You might as well have ed reed right there,

1110
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 2: because he's not thrown over the middle of the field.

1111
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:43,680
Speaker 2: He's not good enough. Like it's just like people see

1112
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,359
Speaker 2: everybody who watches table sit there and say it. But

1113
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 2: then people was like, but I'll play Patrick Mahomes the

1114
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 2: two Super Bowls I did just see.

1115
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:51,920
Speaker 6: I just.

1116
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:54,879
Speaker 2: Can't stand it.

1117
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 3: I just I have a hard time completely agreeing with

1118
00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,839
Speaker 3: you on that because we've seen I hear what you're

1119
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:02,919
Speaker 3: saying this past year is not a good a good

1120
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,640
Speaker 3: argument for me because you're right, he didn't do much

1121
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 3: throwing at all, but we've seen him throw the ball

1122
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,080
Speaker 3: in big moments and have success. So it's like, why

1123
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:14,040
Speaker 3: this year to say, I wish I could tell you, you know,

1124
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:17,000
Speaker 3: all those throws he didn't make, all those throws that

1125
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 3: that he couldn't execute, but they didn't even try. So

1126
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:20,560
Speaker 3: it's like, how I'm I. I feel like I have

1127
00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 3: to put it on the coach.

1128
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 2: Coach calls the plays player, got a player and is.

1129
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 3: He calling even the right place?

1130
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:32,800
Speaker 2: Apparently according to that again, we want to get players.

1131
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,160
Speaker 3: For push that article out first, tell me that and

1132
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,920
Speaker 3: then maybe I can see how much truth comes with it.

1133
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:39,400
Speaker 2: Unnamed sources money.

1134
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 3: Oh, thank you great. That really helps me.

1135

1137
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 2: fired up. I have to take Monte second. I think

00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:54,080
Speaker 2: we're gonna be diametrically opposed. So yeah, get your fires, tinker,

00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:29,440
Speaker 2: everybody took that advice.

1151
00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:32,480
Speaker 3: I just realized how bad I what that came out,

1152
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,960
Speaker 3: How that came out. I know, Yeah, now your head

1153
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 3: got a little bit bigger.

1154
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 2: Lear Listen. Oftentimes I say, if everybody just listened to me,

1155
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:46,759
Speaker 2: you wouldn't be here. So the WNBA has announced he's

1156
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:52,000
Speaker 2: gonna expand three more teams. Cleveland will get a team back,

1157
00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:56,440
Speaker 2: Detroit will get a team back, and Philadelphia we'll get

1158
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:58,920
Speaker 2: a team. Cleveland will start playing twenty twenty eight, Detroit

1159
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,320
Speaker 2: twenty twenty nine. Off You're twenty thirty in an effort

1160
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:05,400
Speaker 2: to further grow the league, which has valuations that have

1161
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 2: skyrocketed over the last eighteen months with the addition of

1162
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 2: the Golden State Valkyries and Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese

1163
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 2: and the rookie class that brought into the WNBA Page

1164
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 2: Backers obviously the Rookie of the Year following that class,

1165
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:24,760
Speaker 2: but women's basketball at a all time high at the moment,

1166
00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 2: so the WNBA says they feel like it's a good

1167
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 2: time to grow.

1168
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 3: Is it, though, Is it?

1169
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 2: I absolutely believe so.

1170
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:36,400
Speaker 3: You think it's the time, the right time to grow

1171
00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 3: right now.

1172
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 2: When the Golden State Valkyries come out and are announced

1173
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 2: as like the second or third most valuable franchise in

1174
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 2: the WNBA immediately after like before playing a game, there's

1175
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 2: clearly an appetite for this. When you have first and

1176
00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 2: second round we have first round picks getting waived in

1177
00:57:57,120 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 2: their second or third years. There's clearly a a talent

1178
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 2: pool that you can pull from to fill out fifteen

1179
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:08,280
Speaker 2: more fifteen more spots, twelve more spots. There's only one

1180
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 2: hundred and forty four professional women's basketball players.

1181
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:16,800
Speaker 3: I filling out a roster doesn't mean you're getting the

1182
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 3: attention that a Las Vegas Aces gets because of Asia Wilson,

1183
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 3: that a Fever gets because of Caitlin Clark, that the

1184
00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 3: New York Liberty get because of Sabrina Unescu and Stewie.

1185
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 3: Like the Golden State Valkyries, I'm surprised at how their

1186
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:35,160
Speaker 3: attendant they had the highes attendance out of any team

1187
00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:38,200
Speaker 3: last year by average, But there are so many other

1188
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 3: teams Martin that like, do not have the attention that

1189
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:44,360
Speaker 3: other teams do. So I don't. So you're gonna So

1190
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 3: is the plan to get rid of? Like you're adding some,

1191
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 3: but are you gonna get rid of others?

1192
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:50,160
Speaker 2: No? Wow, Because just by filling up.

1193
00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 3: A roster doesn't mean you're gonna get the fans to

1194
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:52,080
Speaker 3: come on in.

1195
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 2: I would disagree wholeheartedly because I would tell you at

1196
00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,760
Speaker 2: least two a year and a half ago, whenever Kaitlyn

1197
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,400
Speaker 2: Clark was first walking into the w NBA, I can

1198
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:05,200
Speaker 2: tell you definitively there were people going to watch the

1199
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 2: w NBA who had no idea who of the ten

1200
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:09,880
Speaker 2: players on the court four of them were.

1201
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:11,600
Speaker 3: Right, But they went to see Kaitlyn Clark.

1202
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,240
Speaker 2: Sure, so why would I notge So if Kaitlyn Clark

1203
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 2: is a she's it's Kaitlin Clark, and there's more than

1204
00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 2: just her in the league. But let's say the Caitlin

1205
00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:22,800
Speaker 2: Clark and the Vegas Aces for Kaitlin Clark and Asian

1206
00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:26,320
Speaker 2: Wilson are the two biggest touring acts in America. Sure, right,

1207
00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:30,480
Speaker 2: Theoretically speaking, why would you not extend their tours to Cleveland,

1208
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 2: Detroit and Philly for one game?

1209
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 3: And one game? So two games out of the entire

1210
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 3: season is what you're.

1211
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 2: Two games out of the I mean there's forty some

1212
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,400
Speaker 2: games in the season, and there's only twelve teams, so

1213
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:44,600
Speaker 2: each team is playing each other at least three.

1214
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 3: Years at the same location. So you're also gonna play

1215
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:50,480
Speaker 3: we will play road home in Indiana, right, So it's

1216
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:51,400
Speaker 3: not that many games.

1217
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 2: So like I I mean, it's it's the same, It's

1218
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 2: I don't know, all right.

1219
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 3: So in forty forty games, ten games that you get

1220
00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 3: that are stars coming to your hometown ten games out

1221
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:04,400
Speaker 3: of the forty something like you're gonna what are you

1222
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 3: gonna do with the other thirty? Like I just feel

1223
01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 3: like when you look at it, the numbers are not

1224
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 3: gonna it's I think it's a bad idea. But I

1225
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,000
Speaker 3: also feel like if you're not gonna do it now

1226
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:14,280
Speaker 3: that one are you gonna do it? I just think

1227
01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:15,959
Speaker 3: it's a bad idea. I think it's too soon.

1228
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:19,400
Speaker 2: Absolutely not. Now is the time if you're gonna do it,

1229
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:21,120
Speaker 2: And what a producer, what you got.

1230
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 4: There's the fact that this is gonna be what they're

1231
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:28,600
Speaker 4: like five expansion teams over the past two three years,

1232
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 4: Like that just feels like a little much to me

1233
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 4: because it's like you're then saying that there's that much demand,

1234
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 4: there's that much talent to go around, dude, to make

1235
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 4: three more teams, all right, Like so you're saying that

1236
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:43,600
Speaker 4: there are there's a bench players and the deserve to

1237
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 4: be starters, yes to where you can fill out three

1238
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 4: more teams.

1239
01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:49,680
Speaker 3: But the thing is like, I sorry, you're saying what

1240
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:51,160
Speaker 3: he is saying before. I don't want to lose this

1241
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:53,560
Speaker 3: train of thought. He's saying that there's talent. To me,

1242
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 3: I'm saying, is there talent that moves the needle? Like

1243
01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:57,919
Speaker 3: you could tell me that there's enough talent to fill

1244
01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:00,959
Speaker 3: the rosters all you want, but people gonna go see

1245
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:01,600
Speaker 3: those players.

1246
01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 2: I don't know off hand with the ratings were this

1247
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 2: year for the women's tournament, but over the last three

1248
01:01:07,080 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 2: years it's been more popular than the men's tournament. Men's

1249
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:12,320
Speaker 2: tournament this year had had a a big swing in

1250
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,720
Speaker 2: the other direction. This year, I would say was a

1251
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 2: big swing back for the met's tournament. But over the

1252
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:25,240
Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark first LSU years, UCLA South Carolina, that whole,

1253
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,240
Speaker 2: that Elite eight Final four run over the last three

1254
01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:32,439
Speaker 2: seasons was the biggest story in college basketball by far.

1255
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 2: The President of the United States was commenting on it,

1256
01:01:35,240 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 2: like the appetite for women's basketball show you show when

1257
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,240
Speaker 2: you put a team in Golden State, right, Like Golden State,

1258
01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 2: that's a busy freaking place. There's a lot of things

1259
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,840
Speaker 2: going on in San Francisco, Like that team is selling

1260
01:01:47,840 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 2: out before they even had a roster set up. And

1261
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:54,400
Speaker 2: when you have got excuse me, we have women who

1262
01:01:54,520 --> 01:01:58,240
Speaker 2: are getting drafted and being released like you have first

1263
01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:01,280
Speaker 2: round picks in this league who are two three years later.

1264
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:03,080
Speaker 2: It's not because they can't play.

1265
01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:04,400
Speaker 3: Anymore because there's no demand.

1266
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,160
Speaker 2: No, it's because there's no space on the roster.

1267
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:09,320
Speaker 4: I feel like with the Valkyries when they came in,

1268
01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 4: it was such a perfect time with Kaitlyn Clark coming

1269
01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 4: into the league, Like there was such a demand for

1270
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 4: women's basketball then and it's not like there isn't now.

1271
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:18,600
Speaker 4: But it feels like we have kind of passed that

1272
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:20,520
Speaker 4: surge and it's starting to go down a little bit,

1273
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:22,640
Speaker 4: and now you're adding three more teams out of the blue.

1274
01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 2: It's not out of the blue. It's off of three years.

1275
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 2: It's off of it's off of women's college basketball for

1276
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,439
Speaker 2: the last three of this was just twenty twenty six.

1277
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,840
Speaker 2: In the last six years, right says twenty since they

1278
01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:38,480
Speaker 2: brought the tournaments back from COVID to now, women's college

1279
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:42,439
Speaker 2: basketball has been insanely more popular than men's college basketball. Yes,

1280
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 2: that's a period stopped. Yes, in the last three years,

1281
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:48,000
Speaker 2: I would say what Kayler Clark was healthy. I'm not

1282
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 2: saying that the WNBA was pushing the NBA, but I

1283
01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:54,640
Speaker 2: think that there was a real argument when over the

1284
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 2: summer that there were two major topics to talk about,

1285
01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,720
Speaker 2: and that was whatever Kayler Clark was doing and baseball

1286
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,880
Speaker 2: rule changes. And then Kitler Clark continued to play in

1287
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,800
Speaker 2: this benefits. She didn't even win all the time, but

1288
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 2: she had this concert where she was bringing around the

1289
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,680
Speaker 2: rest of the league to where now the players who

1290
01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:15,520
Speaker 2: were winning were getting that much more coverage, right, And

1291
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:17,919
Speaker 2: I understand that Kayler Clark was hurt for the last

1292
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:20,600
Speaker 2: little bit, but the idea of expanding now when you

1293
01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 2: have a singular star, I gotta look this up. I

1294
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:28,400
Speaker 2: would love to know, like when the TV contracts for

1295
01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:30,520
Speaker 2: the NBA, like how many how they expanded the teams,

1296
01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,640
Speaker 2: what players were lining up in that moment, because right

1297
01:03:33,680 --> 01:03:36,520
Speaker 2: now you have a moment where there are families that

1298
01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:39,440
Speaker 2: would not have gone to a WNBA game in Atlanta.

1299
01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 2: Who will now, I know they just traded for Angeur

1300
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:44,240
Speaker 2: prior to that, they would not have gone to a

1301
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 2: WNBA game in Atlanta last season? Who would consider it

1302
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:51,920
Speaker 2: because Kaitler Clark has the potential to play. In fact,

1303
01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 2: they had to move games from some places to other

1304
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:58,680
Speaker 2: plays not because of because of the demand. People are

1305
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:01,640
Speaker 2: clearly buying tickets to this stuff is when you're looking

1306
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 2: at the roster size the twelve, it's really the twelve

1307
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:08,280
Speaker 2: team that the twelve player roster and hard cap makes

1308
01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 2: it such that there's it's very putative for w NBA

1309
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:16,200
Speaker 2: teams to carry veterans unless that veteran is like truly

1310
01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:19,640
Speaker 2: like Kelsey Plump making a starting ag Wilson starting max

1311
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:22,480
Speaker 2: level impact on your team.

1312
01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:26,040
Speaker 3: The Atlanta Dream averaged five thousand fans a game, aside

1313
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:29,880
Speaker 3: from the times that Caitlin Clark came into town and.

1314
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:33,080
Speaker 2: They just traded for well, I don't know the.

1315
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,240
Speaker 3: Rangel reas on Rangel Reas.

1316
01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:37,520
Speaker 2: But I don't know where she what number star she

1317
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:40,160
Speaker 2: is in the WBA, but she's top five and not five.

1318
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 3: She's But that's what I'm saying. It's like the players

1319
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:46,520
Speaker 3: who people are actually gonna go watch. I don't I

1320
01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:49,560
Speaker 3: think obviously they're banking the juju Watkins in two years, right,

1321
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:52,000
Speaker 3: three years that she comes and does it. But is

1322
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:54,880
Speaker 3: that are we expecting Azy Fudd to do that? Like

1323
01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:55,920
Speaker 3: I don't know if she's.

1324
01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,200
Speaker 2: Moving the needle like that Page Beckers is just moving

1325
01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:00,800
Speaker 2: the needle in Dallas like I just saw him.

1326
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 3: Tell us, Okay, like in comparison to what other teams.

1327
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:09,840
Speaker 2: The average, but when but you're looking at the bottom

1328
01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,000
Speaker 2: of this league, and I don't understand what the point

1329
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 2: is but the top, like when you're looking at the

1330
01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 2: revenue share and the whole point, Like I get Atlanta

1331
01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 2: has nobody there. But I don't know how many. How

1332
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 2: many people attended the Portland Trailblazers games this year, but

1333
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 2: a lot of are over the last. However, many years

1334
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:28,120
Speaker 2: after they traded Damian Lillard and he was and that

1335
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:30,560
Speaker 2: team was no longer competing at a high level. The

1336
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 2: team was one of the worst teams in the NBA.

1337
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,600
Speaker 2: But when Lebron came, people wanted to go see Lebron play.

1338
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 2: And when Zion, even rookie Zion, people are going to

1339
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,600
Speaker 2: see him play. When he's out there. Cooper Flag now

1340
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 2: people are going to see Cooper Flag play. These are

1341
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 2: individuals on bad teams. The Mavericks roster. Mavericks attendance this

1342
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:50,880
Speaker 2: year has been in the toilet because they traded away

1343
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 2: their best player and they have no equity in the

1344
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 2: fan base right now, They're not going to sell the

1345
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 2: team or move the team because they got the eyes.

1346
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:00,320
Speaker 3: The eyes in the NBA don't compare to the eyes

1347
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,680
Speaker 3: on the WNBA, right, Like, you can't compare the two

1348
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:06,920
Speaker 3: products in reality, even though the amount of NBA fans,

1349
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:09,560
Speaker 3: they've been around for years, So people are going to

1350
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,880
Speaker 3: go watch the Portland Trailblazers because they've been fans for years.

1351
01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:17,400
Speaker 3: I feel like with the WNBA again, more revenue, but

1352
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:20,760
Speaker 3: now you're paying players a lot more so money is

1353
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,440
Speaker 3: it's already going somewhere else and you're hoping it's going

1354
01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:27,240
Speaker 3: to come in because you're building WNBA teams in.

1355
01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 2: Three evaluation for the valkyris right there.

1356
01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:33,720
Speaker 3: I'm looking at the average attention, average attend That's what

1357
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 3: I'm looking at. Yeah, so they have the highest average

1358
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:39,480
Speaker 3: attendance at eighteen thousand, then the Indiana Fever come in

1359
01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 3: at sixteen point five, Liberty sixteen point three. Then it

1360
01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:46,959
Speaker 3: drops to the Sparks twelve less than twelve point five

1361
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 3: the last one, like even the Aces are under twelve thousand.

1362
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 2: But every one of those, every one of those teams

1363
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:58,400
Speaker 2: that you just talked about, has a marketable star that

1364
01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 2: you can drive behind, right maybe, but outside of the

1365
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:03,880
Speaker 2: Sparks maybe can't bring is not as marketable as coming

1366
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:05,720
Speaker 2: off the ACL and Soul, But every one of those

1367
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:07,640
Speaker 2: teams are somebody that you can build behind it when

1368
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 2: you have the rising tide, the rocket ship that is

1369
01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:13,800
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark, who will be coming back and like imagine

1370
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:17,040
Speaker 2: hopefully you would imagine will be healthy this upcoming season

1371
01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:19,640
Speaker 2: and seasons progressed, like she missed a ton of time

1372
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:23,440
Speaker 2: this last season. Shit, the star is not dampening in

1373
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 2: my opinion on her, and she's not even the best

1374
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,560
Speaker 2: player in the league. So when you're looking at it

1375
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:31,280
Speaker 2: through that lens, you're watching these like she is the

1376
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:34,360
Speaker 2: introduction for a lot of people. And also the like

1377
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:39,760
Speaker 2: Cleveland's had. Cleveland was one of the initial WNBA locations.

1378
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:43,480
Speaker 2: Detroit was one of the initial WNBA locations or not

1379
01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:46,520
Speaker 2: not with the first first eight, but the Detroit Shock

1380
01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 2: have a history of like that was the thing that exists.

1381
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 2: I know Detroit Shock fans. So I'm not saying that,

1382
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:54,520
Speaker 2: I'm not even trying to just cape up for it.

1383
01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:58,040
Speaker 2: It's just it makes absolute sense to try to expand

1384
01:07:58,080 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 2: your league.

1385
01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:01,160
Speaker 3: Right now, you just Saidkayaling Clark's not the best player,

1386
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,120
Speaker 3: is it? Are you saying Asia Wilson? Would you say okay,

1387
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:07,240
Speaker 3: and yet she doesn't have the Las Vegas Aces, do

1388
01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:10,680
Speaker 3: not have the average that other teams had in attendance,

1389
01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:12,840
Speaker 3: and she's the best player. So it doesn't have to

1390
01:08:12,880 --> 01:08:15,800
Speaker 3: do with skill Martin. It has to do with who

1391
01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 3: people care to watch. And that's what I'm questioning. You're

1392
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:23,679
Speaker 3: adding three teams, so you expecting Juju Watkins is one?

1393
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,320
Speaker 3: Who else is coming that is going to be like that?

1394
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:28,120
Speaker 3: If talent is not enough.

1395
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 2: Well you talk the WNBA, what's the TV deligious.

1396
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,559
Speaker 4: So it's the fact that it's three teams that I

1397
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:36,840
Speaker 4: think is the real hang up here, because I think

1398
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:38,959
Speaker 4: we all agree, like it makes sense for the WNBA

1399
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,760
Speaker 4: to expand right now, because yeah, like you're right everything

1400
01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:43,760
Speaker 4: you're saying about Kaitlyn Clark the rising shit, you know,

1401
01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:46,559
Speaker 4: but the rising tide raises all ships and I get that.

1402
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 4: But it's the fact that three teams that's really ambitious,

1403
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:52,080
Speaker 4: and it's a bet that, like you're taking a bet there,

1404
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:53,439
Speaker 4: and if it doesn't pay off, I don't know what

1405
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:55,800
Speaker 4: you're gonna do because it's way easier to add teams

1406
01:08:55,840 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 4: than take them away. I just don't see you don't

1407
01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:02,040
Speaker 4: see the downfall.

1408
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 2: I don't see the argument as to why you like

1409
01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:07,960
Speaker 2: a like, I don't know. Maybe Steve di Seger could

1410
01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:09,639
Speaker 2: shine some light on this situation.

1411
01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,360
Speaker 3: God, do you make it harder to see these stars,

1412
01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:13,920
Speaker 3: then more people are going to show up to these

1413
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 3: games that they're not showing up to right now.

1414
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:18,120
Speaker 2: I would say that when you look at the TV

1415
01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:21,840
Speaker 2: deal that the NBA and WNBAH signed, that there's clearly

1416
01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:26,719
Speaker 2: an appetite for this. Yes, more so than the previous decade. Yes.

1417
01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:30,680
Speaker 2: And so if there's an appetite, you know, if your

1418
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:32,760
Speaker 2: restaurant's selling out, why don't open another one?

1419
01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:34,799
Speaker 3: Because it doesn't always work.

1420
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:38,599
Speaker 7: Well, you don't open three more, but one more unless

1421
01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:41,000
Speaker 7: you really should have had more teams to begin with.

1422
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:44,320
Speaker 7: I mean the MLS has expanded to thirty at this point.

1423
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:46,880
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, thirty. You know how many first round

1424
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,599
Speaker 2: picks that we see star in college basketball they don't

1425
01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:52,200
Speaker 2: catch on and all of a sudden they now are

1426
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:52,720
Speaker 2: playing in.

1427
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:56,640
Speaker 7: Watch how many UCLA players from this championship team or

1428
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:59,760
Speaker 7: taken in the first round from one roster. No, they

1429
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,559
Speaker 7: didn't have a spread around years, by the way, it

1430
01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:06,360
Speaker 7: was all seniors literally, yeah, seniors.

1431
01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:06,679
Speaker 2: Six.

1432
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:11,040
Speaker 7: You mentioned the attendance for Indiana and maybe they could

1433
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:13,759
Speaker 7: have gotten eighteen thousand like Golden State, but their building

1434
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:15,439
Speaker 7: doesn't hold eighteen thousand.

1435
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:16,080
Speaker 2: Just for the.

1436
01:10:16,040 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 7: Record, superb, I think it's seventeen.

1437
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:19,759
Speaker 3: Is it seventeen?

1438
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,600
Speaker 7: Okay, it's a fieldhouse as we know, it's not like

1439
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:26,040
Speaker 7: some big new arena like Golden State has. Anyway, WNBA

1440
01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:30,320
Speaker 7: preseason schedule starts in two week and today Chicago signed

1441
01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:33,959
Speaker 7: Skyler Diggens. We've got baseball to update, and the Dodgers

1442
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,400
Speaker 7: have the early lead. They're ten and three this season.

1443
01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 7: They're up four to one going to the bottom of

1444
01:10:38,200 --> 01:10:40,599
Speaker 7: the second against Texas, which got a lead off home

1445
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:44,120
Speaker 7: run from Brandon Nemo. However, the Dodgers' leadoff hitter is

1446
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:47,439
Speaker 7: shohe Otani. He hit a leadoff homer in the bottom

1447
01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:50,759
Speaker 7: of the first ta Oscar Hernandez with a three run homer.

Speaker 7: forty five straight games dating back to last regular season

1450
01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:02,200
Speaker 7: LA Dodger record fifty three. Even a Dodger fan would

1451
01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:04,919
Speaker 7: not have gotten this Sean Green in two thousand.

1452
01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:06,200
Speaker 3: Oh, that's a great.

1453
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:09,960

1491
01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:08,520
Speaker 2: a fun fact page. Beckers Draft twenty twenty five WNBA

1492
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:14,599
Speaker 2: only the thirty eight players selected, only twenty aren't active

1493
01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:19,800
Speaker 2: NBA roster WNBA rosters right now, Are we alleging that

1494
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:22,720
Speaker 2: all of these women that play college basketball just not

1495
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:24,600
Speaker 2: good enough to play in the professional.

1496
01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:26,640
Speaker 3: League, Because that's not why I think you're no. I

1497
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:30,120
Speaker 3: just think talent and demand are two different things.

1498
01:13:30,160 --> 01:13:36,519
Speaker 2: That's all, because there's absolutely enough I mean, let's see,

1499
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:40,679
Speaker 2: I'm looking at it right now. You had only three

1500
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:46,200
Speaker 2: third round picks like made their rosters, right, so, like

1501
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:50,599
Speaker 2: there is and would just watch women's college basketball from

1502
01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:54,200
Speaker 2: the final four on our Elite eight on Like, you're

1503
01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 2: not telling me that there are not women who were

1504
01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:01,599
Speaker 2: competing in those times like that UCLA US game got pros,

1505
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 2: should have should be pros up and down the lineup,

1506
01:14:04,800 --> 01:14:06,639
Speaker 2: and I don't know how many of them will actually

1507
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:08,200
Speaker 2: be able to play in the league.

1508
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 3: I am not saying that those ladies don't deserve to

1509
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:12,400
Speaker 3: play in the WNBA.

1510
01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:15,120
Speaker 2: That's not at all, but that then that there is

1511
01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 2: enough talent for like there's enough talent.

1512
01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:19,599
Speaker 3: Now, Talent and demand are two different things.

1513
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:21,439
Speaker 2: Monty Day's selling every game out.

1514
01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:24,880
Speaker 3: That's not true. There's literally stories of like teams who

1515
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:27,680
Speaker 3: sell out just because Caitlin Clark is there not for

1516
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:28,599
Speaker 3: any other reason.

1517
01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:32,200
Speaker 2: And so if you are walking in to catch this

1518
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 2: unique talent, right, it's like, what's the last concert you

1519
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:36,200
Speaker 2: went to?

1520
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:41,719
Speaker 3: Last concert was Blinky two? Lincoln Park?

1521
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,600
Speaker 2: Okay, sure, Lincoln Park now Park twenty years ago? That

1522
01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:47,760
Speaker 2: would have been working different. And I'm with you, I'm

1523
01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:50,240
Speaker 2: with you right here. But let's say twenty years ago. Girls, great,

1524
01:14:50,479 --> 01:14:53,519
Speaker 2: let's say twenty with Emily Armstrong. You walk in and

1525
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:57,760
Speaker 2: you are looking to go to the Meteora concert for

1526
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:00,479
Speaker 2: Lincoln Park. Right, you want to go here, don't stay

1527
01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:02,720
Speaker 2: and somewhere I belong. But you get there a few

1528
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 2: hours early, and all of a sudden, you hear this

1529
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:07,200
Speaker 2: band called Dashboard Professional that you never would have listened

1530
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 2: to prior. You never would have listened to them prior,

1531
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:12,559
Speaker 2: but because you walked in there and you had you

1532
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:14,160
Speaker 2: want to make sure you got your set. You like,

1533
01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 2: Hold on a second, I don't even like that. I

1534
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:19,360
Speaker 2: didn't even like this acoustic. I'm here for the rock

1535
01:15:19,680 --> 01:15:22,280
Speaker 2: and power chords and I'm over here now I'm saying

1536
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,160
Speaker 2: hands down and I'm all emo with it. You know,

1537
01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:27,080
Speaker 2: I'm found something new. You know why you found out

1538
01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:28,240
Speaker 2: because you went to go see the star.

1539
01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 3: That's great, and then I can listen to that song.

1540
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:31,760
Speaker 3: I can go find it on my iTunes. But I

1541
01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:33,320
Speaker 3: don't have to pay to go watch them in a concert.

1542
01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:35,679
Speaker 2: But you just might. You got a much better shot

1543
01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 2: of doing it than if you hadn't done it before.

1544
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:44,640
Speaker 2: Coming up next, Sexy DEXI wants out. I'll explain.

1545
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Saturday, Monty Bilanio said, Martin Weiss.

1546
01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:54,720
Speaker 2: Tripping over doors. Aaron Torres got takes off. You know

1547
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:57,080
Speaker 2: what I was proud of. You know, we were getting

1548
01:15:57,120 --> 01:15:58,519
Speaker 2: takes off just now in the in the.

1549
01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:00,280
Speaker 3: Back, we were still I know, the show was still

1550
01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:01,520
Speaker 3: going during the break.

1551
01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:03,720
Speaker 2: You know, and I'm really just convinced that. You know,

1552
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,680
Speaker 2: he saw Torres sitting back there quietly, and I just

1553
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:08,280
Speaker 2: know what he was.

1554
01:16:08,200 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 3: Thinking looking at your jacket or I'm sir, glad we're

1555
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 3: talking about the w NBA right now and not college basketball.

1556
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:20,439
Speaker 2: That's what he was thinking over there. I watched, you

1557
01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:23,280
Speaker 2: know what, I watched a little bit of the AT

1558
01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:26,360
Speaker 2: podcast after the National Championship game. As he should he

1559
01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:29,400
Speaker 2: was calling balls and strikes. Yeah, but it was beautiful

1560
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:35,400
Speaker 2: to see, you know, Aaron is his kind heart, big

1561
01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:37,960
Speaker 2: Yukon guy, but like, you know, he's I would not

1562
01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:41,160
Speaker 2: say that he's a person who's wears it on his

1563
01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 2: sleeve in the way that some of the others, Like,

1564
01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:45,400
Speaker 2: you're definitely gonna be excited about it, but like you know,

1565
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:49,040
Speaker 2: we'll see him on a Tuesday in January and he'll

1566
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 2: be upset that the with the Yukon play against Providence.

1567
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:54,960
Speaker 2: But like, he's not something that the rest of the

1568
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,680
Speaker 2: station has to know about like some other people when

1569
01:16:57,680 --> 01:16:58,240
Speaker 2: they're upset.

1570
01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:00,599
Speaker 3: That's a really good point. And you know, he's he's

1571
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 3: the harshest critic for the for those Huskies. He definitely

1572
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:06,080
Speaker 3: doesn't just give him a pass.

1573
01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:10,240
Speaker 2: Oh but Monci, let me tell you when I saw

1574
01:17:11,200 --> 01:17:15,559
Speaker 2: the Blue and May's confetti falling down all around his

1575
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:19,519
Speaker 2: head as he was doing his live shots, and while

1576
01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:22,000
Speaker 2: I'm watching the janitors clean him up behind him, I said,

1577
01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:22,759
Speaker 2: you know what.

1578
01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:27,719
Speaker 3: Ha, we won, you lost, which is so nice.

1579
01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:33,880
Speaker 2: I know. So the New York giantsy John Harbaugh already

1580
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:36,840
Speaker 2: impass and I think this is like the first kind

1581
01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 2: of real test of the Harball era. You'll remember, Monsie

1582
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:47,639
Speaker 2: was all about Joe Shane saying, oh, you know, GM

1583
01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:52,800
Speaker 2: who really does really matter who makes decisions. I'm still

1584
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:57,320
Speaker 2: working here, right, Dexter Lawrence wanting out is going to

1585
01:17:57,360 --> 01:17:58,960
Speaker 2: show because you ain't no way you're telling me that

1586
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,200
Speaker 2: John Harbat takes that job and says I don't want

1587
01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:03,600
Speaker 2: Dexter Lawrence. Right, of course, he of course wants it,

1588
01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,680
Speaker 2: and he spoke about it actually talking about having the

1589
01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:10,360
Speaker 2: best trenches in the league offensive line and defensive line.

1590
01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:12,360
Speaker 2: I think we talked about it right from day one.

1591
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:14,760
Speaker 3: I mean, that's where games are won and loss.

1592
01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:15,719
Speaker 2: That's where it starts.

1593
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:18,479
Speaker 8: We've got to try to build the best offensive line

1594
01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:20,719
Speaker 8: and the best defensive line in football that's got.

1595
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:24,280
Speaker 2: It and so admirable. And that's how you get a

1596
01:18:24,320 --> 01:18:25,479
Speaker 2: lot of wins. And if you just look at the

1597
01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:29,879
Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles, help them a lot. You know, in division.

1598
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:37,160
Speaker 2: If I'm John Harbaugh calling Dexter over saying listen, we're

1599
01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:40,439
Speaker 2: going to be something special here. You can't go anywhere, buddy,

1600
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:44,280
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Let's just go ahead and do this thing here.

1601
01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:46,559
Speaker 2: You've been here a long time. I know you don't

1602
01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:48,400
Speaker 2: want to be here anymore. You want to get this trade,

1603
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:51,120
Speaker 2: you want to get this money. How can I make

1604
01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:52,559
Speaker 2: you happy. What can we do?

1605
01:18:53,040 --> 01:18:56,720
Speaker 3: He is following in the footsteps of Garrett Miles. I

1606
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:59,639
Speaker 3: don't believe anybody anymore who says they want to trade Mouse,

1607
01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:01,400
Speaker 3: Garrett else, Garrett Sorry, what did I say?

1608
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 2: We go? There?

1609
01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:03,720
Speaker 5: We go?

1610
01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:08,679
Speaker 3: Sorry, I'm sorry, came out, came out, throw away. Yeah,

1611
01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:11,000
Speaker 3: I don't. I just don't believe anybody who says they

1612
01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:13,200
Speaker 3: want to trade anymore. To be honest with you, I

1613
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:17,520
Speaker 3: think it's just the first step in getting an extension

1614
01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:20,160
Speaker 3: more money. I don't think Carbo's gonna let him go.

1615
01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,640
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that the intention for him is not

1616
01:19:22,720 --> 01:19:27,080
Speaker 3: to actually leave. The intention is is just forcing the hand.

1617
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:30,400
Speaker 3: He wants something and he's forcing the hand.

1618
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:34,360
Speaker 2: I would say, though, yeah, I know, I attach every

1619
01:19:34,479 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 2: plus defensive lineman to this team. If I'm Brandon Bean,

1620
01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:41,000
Speaker 2: I'm on the phone Dexter Lawrence, you don't want to

1621
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:44,880
Speaker 2: be there. I will overpay for you because we just

1622
01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:47,000
Speaker 2: got to figure something out. Well, you got it. Dexter

1623
01:19:47,080 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 2: Lawrence is one of the most impactful defensive tackles that

1624
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:53,920
Speaker 2: that's to me in the league, and I like in

1625
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:57,000
Speaker 2: the now. Nis obviously up against Aaron Donald consistently a

1626
01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:59,280
Speaker 2: lot of times with all pros. But in Lenan Aaron

1627
01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:01,439
Speaker 2: Donald like he's up.

1628
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:03,599
Speaker 3: There, yeah, which is when he's not going anywhere, They're

1629
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 3: not gonna let him go. You can make all the

1630
01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:07,840
Speaker 3: calls you want hearing this story, but I'm telling you

1631
01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 3: this is this is just forcing the hand. He's not

1632
01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:11,600
Speaker 3: gonna go anywhere, especially.

1633
01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:13,519
Speaker 2: When you consider that the edge rushers they have on

1634
01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:16,040
Speaker 2: either side, it Burns and maybe Thibodeau if he's gonna

1635
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:16,760
Speaker 2: be able to stay on there.

1636
01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 4: That dual Carter in their first round pick from last.

1637
01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:22,639
Speaker 2: Year, and a dual Carter the second, second overall pick, right, yeah, third, third,

1638
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:24,000
Speaker 2: Travis Hunter.

1639
01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:26,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, Travis Hunter was second. Let me read you, guys,

1640
01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:30,400
Speaker 4: the stat from Warren Sharp pressures went a line at

1641
01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:33,680
Speaker 4: nose tackle since twenty twenty two. Dexter Lawrence leads the

1642
01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:36,400
Speaker 4: NFL with one hundred and eight. The next closest is

1643
01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:37,639
Speaker 4: Vitavea with thirty two.

1644
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:39,759
Speaker 2: Man.

1645
01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:44,120
Speaker 3: Listen, there's not many numbers that give you a real effect, right,

1646
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:44,800
Speaker 3: that's one.

1647
01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:47,600
Speaker 2: I tell you that's obviously massive. But you know, I

1648
01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:49,320
Speaker 2: just thought about this, as you said, if we just

1649
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:52,320
Speaker 2: will throw it. The Jaguars drafted a cornerback now with

1650
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:54,760
Speaker 2: the second overall pick told you that was gonna be

1651
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:55,240
Speaker 2: able to stake.

1652
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:59,280
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

1653
01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:04,880
Speaker 2: That's why we're broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. Oh,

1654
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:07,760
Speaker 2: look at that Manti. Max Munsey's up to bat.

1655
01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:10,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. Have you heard of the other Max Monsey?

1656
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:11,479
Speaker 2: What's he doing?

1657
01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 3: The one for the A's. Have you heard about this

1658
01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:16,680
Speaker 3: other Max Monsey that looks just like Max Muncy but

1659
01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:19,879
Speaker 3: also plays the He plays for the A's. We obviously

1660
01:21:19,920 --> 01:21:22,679
Speaker 3: the the Dodgers Max Mounsey, and there's another Max Monsey

1661
01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:26,439
Speaker 3: who plays for the A's. And they look too similar.

1662
01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:29,120
Speaker 3: Have you heard of this story? No, they're not the

1663
01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:31,760
Speaker 3: same age, so it's not the same person, but they

1664
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:33,479
Speaker 3: look too similar.

1665
01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:37,160
Speaker 2: Now I'm trying to google this guy, crazy Max.

1666
01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:42,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, they look they look like an and then you

1667
01:21:42,640 --> 01:21:44,760
Speaker 3: can right like they don't. I'm sure give them a

1668
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:46,960
Speaker 3: different haircut, but if you put them in similar you

1669
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 3: know what I mean, with the glasses, with the with

1670
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,519
Speaker 3: the beard, they look so similar, but they're like, I

1671
01:21:51,520 --> 01:21:55,080
Speaker 3: don't know, six years apart, maybe it's five, but it's

1672
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:58,640
Speaker 3: so good. It's so good, This.

1673
01:21:58,600 --> 01:22:01,880

1674
01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:03,559
Speaker 2: about that all the time. There's people out there that

1675
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:06,680
Speaker 2: look like you. Yeah that, Like there's somewhere out there

1676
01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:09,640
Speaker 2: there's a guy who just has my entire build, like

1677
01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,080
Speaker 2: I'm creative player number five.

1678
01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 3: Anyway, like I think they may be worn on the

1679
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:16,880
Speaker 3: same day. Hold on, hold on, hold on. It was

1680
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:18,040
Speaker 3: too many things.

1681
01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:21,639
Speaker 2: So next month he's he was crushing the ball yesterday.

1682
01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:23,200
Speaker 2: Well see what he's able to do today as the

1683
01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:25,759
Speaker 2: Dodgers leave the Rangers for to one in the bottom

1684
01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:30,559
Speaker 2: of a third inning. But mansie, we've just go back

1685
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:32,400
Speaker 2: to the NBA for just second.

1686
01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:35,000
Speaker 3: Here, same birthday, just five years apart.

1687
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, that is weird.

1688
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:39,599
Speaker 3: Tell me that's not freaking weird.

1689
01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 2: Huh oh, that is weird.

1690
01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:44,960
Speaker 3: It's weird.

1691
01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:50,000
Speaker 2: Well, like I also think that, like, like I wonder,

1692
01:22:50,200 --> 01:22:53,479
Speaker 2: so obviously the odds that that would happen has got

1693
01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:59,280
Speaker 2: to be slim to none. But like I also like it.

1694
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:02,519
Speaker 2: Them being pro baseball players, I think is the least

1695
01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:04,120
Speaker 2: odd thing about it.

1696
01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:06,000
Speaker 3: Sure, okay, okay.

1697
01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:08,600
Speaker 2: They're like, yeah, the same name and the same birthday.

1698
01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:11,799
Speaker 2: The idea that they're both like pro ballplayers is almost

1699
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:13,519
Speaker 2: like the least weird thing about it, Like that they

1700
01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:15,680
Speaker 2: would come into contact and any other way would be

1701
01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:18,559
Speaker 2: even weirder, like if they both were like accountant at

1702
01:23:18,560 --> 01:23:19,280
Speaker 2: the local firm.

1703
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:21,040
Speaker 4: If you were a pro athlete, I've got a good

1704
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:23,559
Speaker 4: sports Would you rather for your tease earlier if you

1705
01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:26,040
Speaker 4: if you were a pro athlete, would you rather have

1706
01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:29,559
Speaker 4: the same name as someone else who plays the same

1707
01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:32,559
Speaker 4: sport as you? But you're clearly the worst of the two?

1708
01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:37,880
Speaker 4: Or be a twin but you're clearly the worst twin

1709
01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:38,479
Speaker 4: of the two.

1710
01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:43,719
Speaker 3: The first one, I think, not the twin?

1711
01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:47,720
Speaker 4: Shall you have like your sibling? Not the Minnesota So

1712
01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:48,160
Speaker 4: would you.

1713
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:52,360
Speaker 2: Rather be short Boston Celtic Isaiah.

1714
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:55,240
Speaker 3: Thomas, okay, or.

1715
01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:59,240
Speaker 2: Or Blake Griffin's brother Taylor Griffin. That's a good one.

1716
01:24:01,760 --> 01:24:04,640
Speaker 4: Probably small Isaiah Thomas on the Celtics, I think, so, I.

1717
01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:06,240
Speaker 2: Think I'd have to go small. I'd have to go

1718
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,680
Speaker 2: with the Isaiah Thomas as well, even though it's so

1719
01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:11,280
Speaker 2: just to be like the real Isaiah Thomas.

1720
01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:11,680
Speaker 9: Like that.

1721
01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 2: Isaiah Thomas got MVP votes too once. It only happened once,

1722
01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:19,280
Speaker 2: but I remember, I vividly remember, and the one I

1723
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,720
Speaker 2: was going to ask, would you rather on your team

1724
01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:27,600
Speaker 2: have a bad closer or a bad kicker. If everybody

1725
01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:29,240
Speaker 2: else was excellent.

1726
01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:34,519
Speaker 3: I'd rather have a bad kicker. I don't think you

1727
01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:35,799
Speaker 3: can't live without a good closer.

1728
01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 2: Your kicker is going to be your highest scoring player

1729
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:41,599
Speaker 2: on the team. And I challenged you, the Dodgers won

1730
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:43,519
Speaker 2: the World Series last year without a closer.

1731
01:24:46,320 --> 01:24:50,720
Speaker 3: Last year, your rokie Sosaki came in and was the

1732
01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:53,200
Speaker 3: closer we didn't have that we didn't know we needed.

1733
01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:55,679
Speaker 2: Again, but he went into it. You said the closer

1734
01:24:55,720 --> 01:24:57,679
Speaker 2: we didn't have. They didn't have a closer for most

1735
01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,439
Speaker 2: of the all season, didn't have a closer.

1736
01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:02,439
Speaker 3: And but you're telling I guess when you presented the question,

1737
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:04,960
Speaker 3: I was thinking that I'm gonna deal the entire season

1738
01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:07,840
Speaker 3: without finding someone to do the job. Right, So the

1739
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 3: entire season I have no kicker, Then I guess we're

1740
01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:11,320
Speaker 3: never kicking.

1741
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's tough. I feel like, which is harder to find? Yeah,

1742
01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:18,240
Speaker 4: a kicker who can knock down field goals or close.

1743
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,120
Speaker 3: But I can still score without a kicker.

1744
01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:23,400
Speaker 2: I mean you can still win games on a closer.

1745
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:25,559
Speaker 3: I mean sure, but you ah, yeah, it's a great one.

1746
01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:26,200
Speaker 3: It's a great one.

1747
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:29,040
Speaker 4: Also for the last question, another example of the twins

1748
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:33,800
Speaker 4: would be a Caden and Cameron Boozer, where Cameron's clearly.

1749
01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 2: Better I mean today, but kamboos I don't know. The

1750
01:25:38,520 --> 01:25:40,280
Speaker 2: book to me is still out on that. I found

1751
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,120
Speaker 2: it fascinating that people and I Kamboo's had a great year,

1752
01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:46,800
Speaker 2: but like, I don't Kamboozer is like six'. Nine it

1753
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:47,360
Speaker 2: can't jump.

1754
01:25:47,400 --> 01:25:50,560
Speaker 3: Anyway one least thing About Max Swunzy. Dodgers he was

1755
01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 3: drafted by The. A's come, on, nah come on you,

1756
01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:56,200
Speaker 3: guys isn't this just?

1757
01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:59,160
Speaker 2: Bizarre maybe they just pulled out the wrong card from

1758
01:25:59,200 --> 01:26:03,320
Speaker 2: the last. Time you, know it's like, wait look at

1759
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:06,240
Speaker 2: look at the five M U. N then it was

1760
01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:08,200
Speaker 2: stuck together and they just got.

1761
01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:10,560
Speaker 3: Lucky somebody happened to be born five years later with

1762
01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:10,880
Speaker 3: the same.

1763
01:26:10,880 --> 01:26:13,240
Speaker 4: Way CAN i use your homework? Assignment, yeah just change

1764
01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 4: a few. Things come, On, okay speaking.

1765
01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:21,599
Speaker 2: Of Cameron, Boozer duke had two freshmen last year that

1766
01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:24,160
Speaker 2: game and really have taken the league by storm in

1767
01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 2: terms of this, class kN knupple And Cooper. Flag but

1768
01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:35,640
Speaker 2: this is the recency bias that comes from THE nba

1769
01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:38,519
Speaker 2: and the idea of, like oh, well we all know

1770
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:42,200
Speaker 2: that this is going to age, weird so we don't do.

1771
01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:45,400
Speaker 2: It it's it's AN nba thing THAT i can't. Stand

1772
01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:51,400
Speaker 2: like the idea That Lebron james was not the rookie

1773
01:26:51,439 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 2: of The year is okay because you didn't have the

1774
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:55,880
Speaker 2: best rookie. Year did he have the best career out

1775
01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:58,759
Speaker 2: of everybody involved in two thousand and three? Drafts apps

1776
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:03,120
Speaker 2: a freaking Lutely and that may well be true for

1777
01:27:03,240 --> 01:27:05,599
Speaker 2: the guy who is compared the most Of Lebron sin

1778
01:27:05,840 --> 01:27:09,640
Speaker 2: Since lebron And Cooper, flag, right that very may well be.

1779
01:27:09,760 --> 01:27:13,439
Speaker 2: True But Kan, kinnupple to, me has been The rookie

1780
01:27:13,520 --> 01:27:16,639
Speaker 2: of The year and has not necessarily lost it simply

1781
01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:19,280
Speaker 2: Because Cooper flag went for forty five and the lost

1782
01:27:19,280 --> 01:27:20,880
Speaker 2: in fifty one in a. Win AND i don't say

1783
01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:23,080
Speaker 2: that to be little any of, that. RIGHT i don't

1784
01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,559
Speaker 2: say that to throw that. AWAY i just Say i've

1785
01:27:25,560 --> 01:27:30,759
Speaker 2: seen kN king up all year be an impact player

1786
01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,040
Speaker 2: for a team that in the second half of the

1787
01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:36,640
Speaker 2: season started winning a ton of games and going on

1788
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:39,080
Speaker 2: a hot. Stretch and he was a major part of

1789
01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:41,680
Speaker 2: it that. Team And i'm not SAYING i am not

1790
01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:44,880
Speaker 2: giving him all the credit by any, stretch but they

1791
01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:48,240
Speaker 2: were ready to Ship LaMelo ball To, siberia all, right

1792
01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:52,280
Speaker 2: like they were. Ready there's like, You Mike singletary start

1793
01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:55,240
Speaker 2: you can't win with them right, now all of a,

1794
01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:58,720
Speaker 2: sudden he's functional basketball, player Like i'm not. Saying And

1795
01:27:58,840 --> 01:28:00,760
Speaker 2: Charles lee the new head, coach all of. That so

1796
01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:03,320
Speaker 2: things are different Than. Charlotte but to, me When i'm

1797
01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:08,000
Speaker 2: looking at objectively the best rookie seasons From game one

1798
01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:11,320
Speaker 2: to now what will do Tomorrow game eighty, two it Is.

1799
01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:14,720
Speaker 2: Conkannupple Cooper flag has had better moments and his name

1800
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:18,360
Speaker 2: is easier to. Say conkuple is work here of the.

1801
01:28:18,400 --> 01:28:20,439
Speaker 2: Year and you know, what IF i were to, BET

1802
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:24,120
Speaker 2: i would Say Cooper flag will have the, better more impactful.

1803
01:28:24,160 --> 01:28:26,479
Speaker 2: Career but that's. Okay i'm not Doing career of The.

1804
01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:27,519
Speaker 2: Year i'm Doing rookie of The.

1805
01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:30,160
Speaker 3: Year you just said that you can look at this.

1806
01:28:30,280 --> 01:28:34,280
Speaker 3: Objectively MAYBE i can't BECAUSE i don't agree with. You

1807
01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:37,960
Speaker 3: like you just, Said Cooper flag has had the moments

1808
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:41,400
Speaker 3: and no Watching Conk nipple shoot all those, threes break

1809
01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:44,240
Speaker 3: the record for, threes it's been. Fun but if you

1810
01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:46,960
Speaker 3: looked up right, now the top fifty scores in THE

1811
01:28:47,040 --> 01:28:53,120
Speaker 3: nba for the league top. Fifty charlotte has. Four Konk

1812
01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:56,600
Speaker 3: nipple has people around him to make it easier for.

1813
01:28:56,680 --> 01:28:58,960
Speaker 3: Himself i'm not saying he is not. Good it. Is

1814
01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:03,040
Speaker 3: it's been great watching. Him Cooper flag is out there

1815
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:05,040
Speaker 3: putting on a show by himself because he has no one.

1816
01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:07,719
Speaker 3: Else AND i just saw him play against The clippers

1817
01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:10,600
Speaker 3: and he had a rough, game could not score a

1818
01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:12,479
Speaker 3: basket of his life depended on. IT i think he

1819
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:14,719
Speaker 3: had like twenty five points in the. Game he probably

1820
01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:17,760
Speaker 3: took fifty, shots but he has some. Donks he took

1821
01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:21,680
Speaker 3: flight and you were just, like, damn that guy is.

1822
01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:27,799
Speaker 3: Good that kid is good at. Nineteen butte The Charlotte

1823
01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:32,599
Speaker 3: hornets have been a fun. Team but you have four

1824
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,760
Speaker 3: players in the top fifty scores in the league by.

1825
01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:42,439
Speaker 2: Average that stat Doesn't MAYBE i need to have more.

1826
01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:46,559
Speaker 3: Clips One clippers have One Kawhi. Leonard you, Know i'm, saying.

1827
01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:49,120
Speaker 2: Like, right guys that are, scoring what is it like

1828
01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:51,200
Speaker 2: that's probably about twenty point margin or something like that

1829
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:54,040
Speaker 2: little cut off of, there like with, fifteen like it's.

1830
01:29:53,880 --> 01:29:56,760
Speaker 3: About, NO i think IT'S i think top fifty eighteen or.

1831
01:29:56,840 --> 01:29:58,920
Speaker 3: Nineteen you're, right it's but it doesn't go to. FIFTY

1832
01:29:58,960 --> 01:29:59,760
Speaker 3: i think it's like, eighteen right.

1833
01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:02,400
Speaker 2: Like but to, me When i'm looking at it Because

1834
01:30:02,439 --> 01:30:06,600
Speaker 2: charlotte is Because dallas is a horrible, team AND i

1835
01:30:07,560 --> 01:30:09,960
Speaker 2: carrying a horrible, team but he's not, Though like it

1836
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:12,600
Speaker 2: would be one thing if if this, team which was

1837
01:30:12,640 --> 01:30:15,880
Speaker 2: rejected to be said the number one overall pick due

1838
01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:18,160
Speaker 2: to some lottery luck but again was in the lottery

1839
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:22,040
Speaker 2: was like five, hundred Then i'd be, like, yeah he's

1840
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:24,240
Speaker 2: carrying a team, like, no he's having, moments but the

1841
01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:27,160
Speaker 2: team is still. Terrible the team is still not very,

1842
01:30:27,160 --> 01:30:30,400
Speaker 2: good And rookie of The year winning matters less to.

1843
01:30:30,479 --> 01:30:32,879
Speaker 2: Me but When i'm looking at the consistency Of kannupple

1844
01:30:32,920 --> 01:30:35,200
Speaker 2: all season and look at the IMPACT i feel like

1845
01:30:35,240 --> 01:30:38,719
Speaker 2: he's had on that roster all, season and Again Cooper

1846
01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:43,280
Speaker 2: flag will likely have the better. Career but to, me

1847
01:30:43,400 --> 01:30:46,680
Speaker 2: that would be it's not, even it's not very. Complicated to,

1848
01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:48,040
Speaker 2: me It's kankannumple when it's not.

1849
01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:51,720
Speaker 3: HARD i would not be upset if Kan kannipple won,

1850
01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:55,240
Speaker 3: it BUT i. DON'T i don't think he. Is because

1851
01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:58,599
Speaker 3: of the narrative and bringing Up Lebron james And Carmelo

1852
01:30:58,640 --> 01:31:01,559
Speaker 3: anthony is a perfect example because of the narrative of

1853
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:04,160
Speaker 3: who they, want who people may. Be WHEN i say

1854
01:31:04,200 --> 01:31:07,559
Speaker 3: who they like the, league the pushing narrative of Who

1855
01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:09,479
Speaker 3: Cooper flag is supposed to, be of what he can.

1856
01:31:09,600 --> 01:31:12,000
Speaker 3: Be they need him to be THE mv The rookie

1857
01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:13,680
Speaker 3: of The. Year we, see that's that's What that's What

1858
01:31:13,760 --> 01:31:16,680
Speaker 3: i'm talking. About, no, yeah but but to say, he

1859
01:31:16,840 --> 01:31:18,960
Speaker 3: like you, said he's had the bigger, moments so it's

1860
01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:19,679
Speaker 3: not like he has.

1861
01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:22,920
Speaker 2: It, well you, know if we and when we do

1862
01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:24,520
Speaker 2: one shining, moment.

1863
01:31:25,160 --> 01:31:25,559
Speaker 3: But it's not.

1864
01:31:25,600 --> 01:31:27,880
Speaker 2: One and when we do five shining moments for THE,

1865
01:31:27,960 --> 01:31:29,960
Speaker 2: nba put all five of them in there for Old.

1866
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:32,160
Speaker 2: Cooper you know. What in, fact well we'll get a

1867
01:31:32,240 --> 01:31:35,160
Speaker 2: highlight from all twenty five Of dallas ones this.

1868
01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:39,240
Speaker 3: Year The kankinnipals thing is shooting. Threes that's that's he

1869
01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:41,160
Speaker 3: is he making other plays that you can think of

1870
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:43,040
Speaker 3: at the top of your. Head, no it's just he's hitting.

1871
01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:45,760
Speaker 2: THREES i wouldn't, SAY i THINK i look at the

1872
01:31:45,840 --> 01:31:49,680
Speaker 2: rumbers Between Kanking up And Cooper flag are Not they

1873
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:53,599
Speaker 2: are not The gulf Of mexico divide that people Would

1874
01:31:56,200 --> 01:32:00,280
Speaker 2: Grank Candy divide is probably a better. One then then

1875
01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:03,000
Speaker 2: people try to make it out to be they're truly

1876
01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:05,280
Speaker 2: not that far. Apart the only place where they are

1877
01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:09,200
Speaker 2: far apart is in the win loss column. Facts SO

1878
01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:13,000
Speaker 2: i just Again Cooper flag would likely have the BETTER nba.

1879
01:32:13,080 --> 01:32:15,519
Speaker 2: Career but you know, what here's the thing For flatley right,

1880
01:32:15,600 --> 01:32:19,439
Speaker 2: now if you were to ask me MVPs, one are

1881
01:32:19,600 --> 01:32:23,040
Speaker 2: MVP's potentially? ONE i said it at like one and a,

1882
01:32:23,080 --> 01:32:28,920
Speaker 2: half smashing the under for both of these. Guys sixty

1883
01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:31,320
Speaker 2: five game rule be will throw a wrench in. Things

1884
01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:35,880
Speaker 2: but from now, on from now until now, on the

1885
01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:39,080
Speaker 2: conversation has to start With Victor wembinyama and that he's

1886
01:32:39,080 --> 01:32:41,040
Speaker 2: not even the best, Player like he's not even the

1887
01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:42,920
Speaker 2: best player in the league right, now you know What i'm,

1888
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:46,080

1889
01:32:46,160 --> 01:32:48,880
Speaker 2: point is playing for third because.

1890

Speaker 2: you said pretty.

1895
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:02,080

1991
01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:34,720

1993
01:37:37,160 --> 01:37:39,720

1994
01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:42,800
Speaker 2: at the different rule changes and the kind of the

1995
01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:45,479
Speaker 2: excitement that is at the game, now these guys are

1996
01:37:45,560 --> 01:37:49,000
Speaker 2: losing out all money by not competing at a high.

1997
01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:54,760
Speaker 2: Level when you're looking at like what The a's are, doing, shameless,

Speaker 2: right you know WHAT i? Mean like that's some of

1999
01:37:56,640 --> 01:38:01,200
Speaker 2: the at a certain, point go back to the conversation

2000
01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:04,439
Speaker 2: having earlier like some of these teams in all sports

2001
01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:07,640
Speaker 2: are heavily subsidized by the top of the. Market it's

2002
01:38:07,680 --> 01:38:12,599
Speaker 2: true for every professional, league and that in baseball needs

2003
01:38:12,640 --> 01:38:16,400
Speaker 2: to change more because it's the gap is so.

01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:18,840
Speaker 3: Big it's so, big and even the as THOUGH i

2005

Speaker 2: that things have, changed sixty five game rules on and so. Forth,

2148
01:45:25,320 --> 01:45:28,439
Speaker 2: Mark is it Still rookie of The year or is

2149
01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:31,000
Speaker 2: It rookie of the? Moment how does that is that?

2150
01:45:31,120 --> 01:45:34,120
Speaker 2: Determined BECAUSE i could have sworn the kan Ko upples

2151
01:45:34,120 --> 01:45:37,040
Speaker 2: had a much better year Than Cooper. Flag BUT i

2152
01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:40,120
Speaker 2: Know Cooper flag had a few moments last. Week, wait

2153
01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:42,200
Speaker 2: so just help me out. Here rookie of The, year

2154
01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:45,080
Speaker 2: forget the, moment It's rookie of The.

2155
01:45:45,160 --> 01:45:47,280
Speaker 6: Year but, LOOK i think you can make the case

2156
01:45:47,360 --> 01:45:52,280
Speaker 6: for either player Because Cooper flag like he's playing at

2157
01:45:52,280 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 6: a really great. Level, yeah he started off, slow but

2158
01:45:55,120 --> 01:45:57,439
Speaker 6: it's because he was playing point. Guard that's not something

2159
01:45:57,840 --> 01:46:01,640
Speaker 6: he's used. To he's not playing all winning. Team but

2160
01:46:01,880 --> 01:46:04,479
Speaker 6: when you look AT mvp voting Versus rookie The year

2161
01:46:04,600 --> 01:46:08,600
Speaker 6: voting vote win loss is usually not a. Criteria but

2162
01:46:08,880 --> 01:46:11,559
Speaker 6: on the point, counterpoint like Conk nipple is showing he's

2163
01:46:11,640 --> 01:46:14,800
Speaker 6: not just a, shooter he's an all round, player and

2164
01:46:14,960 --> 01:46:18,360
Speaker 6: they're in the playing. Tournament, yes they have guys Like

2165
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:22,559
Speaker 6: Brandon miller And LaMelo, ball it's not Just canipple carrying,

2166
01:46:22,640 --> 01:46:24,920
Speaker 6: them but they were kind of a hot mess before

2167
01:46:24,960 --> 01:46:28,479
Speaker 6: he got. There so, YEAH i, MEAN i don't think

2168
01:46:28,520 --> 01:46:32,360
Speaker 6: there's a wrong answer in this. Debate SO i respectfully Disagree,

2169
01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:34,479
Speaker 6: martin it's Not rookie of the, moment It's rookie of the.

2170
01:46:34,560 --> 01:46:38,639
Speaker 6: YEAR i think every player With Cooper, Flag Kank, nipple

2171
01:46:39,040 --> 01:46:42,439
Speaker 6: they've shown a pretty strong body of work from start to.

2172
01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:46,960
Speaker 3: Finish, mark let's say with this sixty five game, rule

2173
01:46:47,280 --> 01:46:49,320
Speaker 3: with what's happened this, YEAR i mean, like let's not

2174
01:46:49,360 --> 01:46:51,400
Speaker 3: even talk about the fact that three hundred players missed

2175
01:46:51,439 --> 01:46:54,040
Speaker 3: the second to last game of the regular season for whatever.

2176
01:46:54,160 --> 01:46:57,479
Speaker 6: Reasons, yeah there's a pandemic going. AROUND i guess.

2177
01:46:57,720 --> 01:47:01,400
Speaker 3: Exactly exactly do you think that sixty five game rule

2178
01:47:01,479 --> 01:47:02,320
Speaker 3: is going to change next?

2179
01:47:02,400 --> 01:47:07,080
Speaker 6: Year, Well Adam silver said he likes. It the league

2180
01:47:07,640 --> 01:47:09,760
Speaker 6: has maintained they don't see. It BUT i think it will.

2181
01:47:09,920 --> 01:47:12,559
Speaker 6: Change BUT i think just by, TECHNICALITY i think they'll

2182
01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:16,320
Speaker 6: change the number of. GAMES i don't know what that'll look,

2183
01:47:16,439 --> 01:47:18,960
Speaker 6: like but it'll just be. MARGINAL i don't think they're

2184
01:47:18,960 --> 01:47:23,040
Speaker 6: going to change the spirit of the rule, because whether

2185
01:47:23,120 --> 01:47:26,000
Speaker 6: you like it or, not THE nba has reported some

2186
01:47:26,520 --> 01:47:31,840
Speaker 6: modest improvements in player participation since you, know it was

2187
01:47:31,960 --> 01:47:35,640
Speaker 6: enacted in twenty twenty, three and they want to maximize you,

2188
01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:40,960
Speaker 6: know THE tv, viewing especially for national. Broadcasts, ironically it

2189
01:47:41,040 --> 01:47:44,040
Speaker 6: still hasn't solved the problem. Here and here's WHERE i

2190
01:47:44,240 --> 01:47:47,720
Speaker 6: unpack this with the. League it doesn't solve the issue at.

2191
01:47:47,760 --> 01:47:51,599
Speaker 6: All it's, just you, know it's something that sounds like it's,

2192
01:47:51,720 --> 01:47:54,360
Speaker 6: nice but it's kind of fake. Hustle, well on the player's,

2193
01:47:54,479 --> 01:47:56,720
Speaker 6: END i don't think they're victims. Here, either not only

2194
01:47:56,840 --> 01:48:00,559
Speaker 6: because the union collectively bargained, it but there's a reason

2195
01:48:00,600 --> 01:48:02,960
Speaker 6: why THE nba felt a need to pass a rule

2196
01:48:03,040 --> 01:48:06,560
Speaker 6: because player availability was such a. Thing and now the

2197
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:09,040
Speaker 6: players will, say, well it's not fair that all of a,

2198
01:48:09,040 --> 01:48:11,800
Speaker 6: sudden we're not proving to ALL nba and that affects our,

2199
01:48:11,880 --> 01:48:15,280
Speaker 6: financials et, cetera et. Cetera but those are. Bonuses that's

2200
01:48:15,320 --> 01:48:19,760
Speaker 6: something that their agents and them negotiating their. Contracts it's

2201
01:48:19,800 --> 01:48:24,120
Speaker 6: a much different conversation than if we're talking about contracts

2202
01:48:24,240 --> 01:48:28,200
Speaker 6: suddenly being voided and non guaranteed after an. Injury SO

2203
01:48:29,320 --> 01:48:31,360
Speaker 6: i think when you look at the whole big picture,

2204
01:48:31,439 --> 01:48:35,719
Speaker 6: here both sides are, blameless but the bigger blame deserves

2205
01:48:36,479 --> 01:48:38,760
Speaker 6: the point to the, league AND i think that they

2206
01:48:38,880 --> 01:48:41,000
Speaker 6: should change, it and they will change.

2207
01:48:40,760 --> 01:48:41,439
Speaker 1: It but just not.

2208
01:48:41,680 --> 01:48:45,600
Speaker 6: Enough it'll just be about reducing a few games here or,

2209
01:48:45,640 --> 01:48:48,840
Speaker 6: there but the same problem will be there because that's

2210
01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:52,680
Speaker 6: usually what THE nba. Does they try to solve, things you,

2211
01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:57,720
Speaker 6: know by the, margins without actually attacking the real substance

2212
01:48:57,760 --> 01:48:57,920
Speaker 6: of the.

2213
01:48:58,000 --> 01:49:02,160
Speaker 2: Issue Mark wadina, Here martin And Montsy Fox Sports. Radio,

2214
01:49:02,320 --> 01:49:06,360
Speaker 2: mark uh, all, right let me answer. Me this more

2215
01:49:06,600 --> 01:49:09,680
Speaker 2: likely to happen a team that has never won a

2216
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:15,880
Speaker 2: postseason series winning THE Nba, finals or a team that's

2217
01:49:15,880 --> 01:49:19,439
Speaker 2: already won a championship winning the. Finals SO i think

2218
01:49:19,439 --> 01:49:21,320
Speaker 2: you got, like, oh you, know you know the.

2219
01:49:21,400 --> 01:49:25,799
Speaker 6: Deal, yeah The thunder win the championship than The. SPURS

2220
01:49:26,120 --> 01:49:27,519
Speaker 6: i gather that's where you're getting.

2221
01:49:27,600 --> 01:49:30,320
Speaker 2: At BUT i, mean or just even get to the, finals,

2222
01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:32,519
Speaker 2: right BECAUSE i get winning the finals or something. Different

2223
01:49:32,520 --> 01:49:34,559
Speaker 2: But i'm looking at The you look at the one

2224
01:49:34,600 --> 01:49:37,960
Speaker 2: seeds on either, side have? It the one seed on,

2225
01:49:38,240 --> 01:49:40,640
Speaker 2: yeah the one seed on the eastern side never won

2226
01:49:40,720 --> 01:49:44,280
Speaker 2: a Postseason San antonio never won a postseason. Series and

2227
01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:46,800
Speaker 2: then you're looking at THE. Nba we have currently eight

2228
01:49:47,360 --> 01:49:49,880
Speaker 2: seven unique champions in the last seven years or eight,

2229
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:53,720
Speaker 2: whatever and and you haven't seen a repeat champion get

2230
01:49:53,760 --> 01:49:57,800
Speaker 2: past the second, round and it feels like. Forever So

2231
01:49:58,120 --> 01:49:59,880
Speaker 2: i'm wondering if you had to pick out of the

2232
01:50:00,080 --> 01:50:05,040
Speaker 2: pool Of, Piston San antonio or the, remainder where would you.

2233
01:50:05,120 --> 01:50:07,680
Speaker 6: Go, yeah it's a good trend you. CITED i think

2234
01:50:07,720 --> 01:50:09,720
Speaker 6: that this year is going to be the. EXCEPTION i

2235
01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:11,680
Speaker 6: think it's going to be The thunder because they have

2236
01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:14,440
Speaker 6: most of their players, back they have home court Advantage

2237
01:50:14,760 --> 01:50:17,120
Speaker 6: that played their advantage last year in the playoffs with

2238
01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:20,519
Speaker 6: having a game seven up until the. Finals, obviously Tyres

2239
01:50:20,600 --> 01:50:23,560
Speaker 6: halburn's injury played a, factor but the bottom line is

2240
01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:27,360
Speaker 6: The thunder have most everyone, Back they're in their, prime

2241
01:50:27,439 --> 01:50:30,839
Speaker 6: they're mostly, healthy and even when there's, injuries they can absorb.

2242
01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:33,760
Speaker 6: IT i don't think The spurs are overwhelmed with the.

2243
01:50:33,840 --> 01:50:37,120
Speaker 6: Moment they have a lot of, maturity good, organization BUT

2244
01:50:37,400 --> 01:50:41,439
Speaker 6: i do wonder can they adjust to the slower pace

2245
01:50:41,600 --> 01:50:44,160
Speaker 6: they mostly play at a faster pace in the regular.

2246
01:50:44,280 --> 01:50:47,000
Speaker 6: SEASON i think their defense is their calling, card BUT

2247
01:50:47,720 --> 01:50:49,479
Speaker 6: i think if they weren't facing a team like The,

2248
01:50:49,560 --> 01:50:51,519
Speaker 6: THUNDER i could see them win. Ins just that The

2249
01:50:51,600 --> 01:50:56,519
Speaker 6: thunder have so much, reinforcements, continuity, talent and they're not

2250
01:50:56,880 --> 01:51:00,360
Speaker 6: an old team that it's going to be relatively easier

2251
01:51:00,400 --> 01:51:05,400
Speaker 6: to repeat than other. Seasons on The, EAST i didn't

2252
01:51:05,439 --> 01:51:07,839
Speaker 6: think this was going to. HAPPEN i thought The celtics

2253
01:51:07,920 --> 01:51:09,920
Speaker 6: were going to be a playing team at, Best but

2254
01:51:10,120 --> 01:51:12,759
Speaker 6: NOW i think not only are they a playoff, contender

2255
01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:15,240
Speaker 6: they're the favor to get to The East BECAUSE i

2256
01:51:15,280 --> 01:51:18,400
Speaker 6: Think Jason tatum's going to increase this game even more

2257
01:51:18,479 --> 01:51:21,679
Speaker 6: in the postseason once is now that it's, conditioning timing

2258
01:51:21,800 --> 01:51:25,360
Speaker 6: is better and everything else will be pretty well. Maintained and,

2259
01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:27,800
Speaker 6: Yeah Jalen brown will after just a, role but they've

2260
01:51:27,920 --> 01:51:32,040
Speaker 6: done that really well in past. Seasons and with The

2261
01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:35,960
Speaker 6: pistons like unbelievers in them as far as their long term,

2262
01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:39,679
Speaker 6: trajectory BUT i don't think they're quite ready yet because

2263
01:51:39,680 --> 01:51:43,960
Speaker 6: of their. Inconsistency Kate cunningham in THE mvp, conversation but

2264
01:51:44,080 --> 01:51:47,400
Speaker 6: every so often he'll have some bad. Games they're three

2265
01:51:47,479 --> 01:51:50,920
Speaker 6: point shooting on, paper they have really good three point,

2266
01:51:50,960 --> 01:51:55,799
Speaker 6: shooters but they're. Inconsistent they are a good defensive, team they're, physical,

2267
01:51:55,960 --> 01:51:58,880
Speaker 6: rugged you, know they make the bad Boy pistons. Proud

2268
01:51:58,920 --> 01:52:02,680
Speaker 6: but because of their offensive, INCONSISTENCY i think That boston will.

2269
01:52:02,720 --> 01:52:05,759
Speaker 6: Prevail so with, THAT i think there'll Be Thunder, celtics

2270
01:52:05,760 --> 01:52:07,519
Speaker 6: AND i Think thunder take it in.

2271
01:52:07,680 --> 01:52:07,920
Speaker 2: Six.

2272
01:52:08,400 --> 01:52:11,559
Speaker 3: Wow all, Right, mark last one for, me your story

Speaker 6: stoic pretty even. Keel you could tell that he's been

2280
01:52:36,120 --> 01:52:39,759
Speaker 6: around the block as far as just what it's about

2281
01:52:39,920 --> 01:52:43,040
Speaker 6: being THE nba and just being exposed to so many different.

2282
01:52:43,080 --> 01:52:45,960
Speaker 6: People and you can credit his, Father Carlos boozer to.

2283
01:52:46,120 --> 01:52:51,160
Speaker 6: That he talked extensively about his father's, influence where you,

2292

Speaker 2: Better but the thing about the hole in one that

2413
01:58:58,440 --> 01:59:05,080
