I do have 18 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,639 Speaker 1: the Bleacher Reports top one hundred NBA players of all 19 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: time to finish. 20 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 5: Out the show, not all of them, just ten of them, just. 21 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: Ten at a time. 22 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: But is he I want to play some sound for 23 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: you and get your thoughts. Steve Kerr, I'm not certain 24 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: that anyone was asking or caring, but he said it anyway. 25 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: Steve Kerr talking about a shortened season next year in 26 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: the NBA. 27 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 6: I know this will not be a popular opinion in 28 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 6: the league office, but I will continue to say it 29 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 6: because it's obvious we need to play fewer games. We 30 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 6: need to take ten games off the schedule. I think 31 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,759 Speaker 6: it would be great for the league. And I get it, 32 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 6: it's revenue and you'd have to get everybody to agree 33 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 6: to take a little less money, and that's a really 34 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,839 Speaker 6: hard thing to do. But what I know about the league, 35 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 6: about coaching, about how hard it is to play the 36 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 6: modern game, with the pace and the space, I think 37 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 6: it would be a more competitive and healthier league if 38 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 6: we played fewer games. 39 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: How do you feel about that? 40 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 5: Is quick question. 41 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 7: That we're not strolling down Audio Avenue. We're just standing 42 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 7: at a corner listening. 43 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the corner. Yes, we're stuck at this house. 44 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 5: We are not moving. 45 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 7: Yes, good, because I got a lot to say, Eric, 46 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 7: Like I heard stan van Gundy say this, I definitely 47 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 7: heard Stan Van Gundy say this in terms of one 48 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 7: of the issues that we have today is that the 49 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 7: answer to the game being harder and being played faster. 50 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 5: And people being more athletic and having to cover more. 51 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 7: Space is practice less. Right, save their bodies At other times. 52 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 7: I've been saying this for a minute, and conversations. 53 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 5: With you know, by trainers or whatever. 54 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 7: You should if you are capable of playing at this 55 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 7: pace regularly on the actual floor, you can practice at 56 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 7: this pace on the actual floor. You can still do 57 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 7: things to avoid injury, like maybe not as much contact, 58 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 7: maybe you sort of legislate that, but you're still playing 59 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,839 Speaker 7: at a fast pace. You still need to condition your 60 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 7: body for how you play, because if you're not doing 61 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 7: that regularly, well, the way you play is different than 62 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 7: what your body is conditioned for. Therefore, here come this. 63 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 2: Soft tissue injuries. 64 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 7: Here come perhaps if you're super fatigued and not running 65 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 7: or playing correctly, some non impact you know, ligament damage, 66 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 7: and that's the type of stuff that again, if you 67 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 7: were conditioning your body preparing yourself for it better, then 68 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 7: it wouldn't be that big of a deal. I disagree 69 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 7: with Steve Kerr. 70 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 5: And that we lead. I think we would be better 71 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 5: off with less games. 72 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 7: Sure, I think it is the answer to the league's 73 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 7: issues with player health and and you know, participation. 74 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 5: I do not. I think it's the way they train. 75 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 7: When they're not playing, because if you think about it'sdue 76 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 7: right like why would training be the same, but then 77 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 7: the game is different. 78 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 5: You're supposed to train the way you. 79 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 7: Play, and if you're not practicing, then things that come 80 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 7: up in games, your body's not going to get used to. 81 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 5: More injuries are going to happen. 82 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 7: It seems pretty cut and dry, like you can't say 83 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 7: that we can't practice at this speed. 84 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 5: Of course you can you play at this speed. 85 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: So is he saying no to what Steve Kerr is suggesting? 86 00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: And he is saying no, keep it at eighty two 87 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: and is harder. 88 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 7: And when I did hear Stam say this, it sounded 89 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 7: kind of you know, pat Riley is, hey, you have 90 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 7: to do But it is the case. Bigger, faster, stronger 91 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 7: creates more demands on your body, and it's not impossible demands, 92 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 7: they're just not. You just have to train for it, 93 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 7: have to prepare for it a little bit better because 94 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 7: you're not You can just get that out the window, 95 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 7: like Steve, They're never going to shorten the amount of games. 96 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:25,119 Speaker 5: It's just not going to happen. 97 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 7: There's always going to be other people that'll give you 98 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 7: an entirely different case. Just like I am to say, 99 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 7: now now we don't need to give up that money. 100 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: I think the public in general just thinks, hey, you're 101 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: paid a lot of money to play eighty two basketball 102 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: games per year. They don't factor in the travel, they 103 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: don't factor in the pace of play. I'm not certain 104 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: they should factor those things in. They are sitting on 105 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: their couches and they're like, hey, five days a week, 106 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: I gotta go to work. Sometimes I work two jobs. 107 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: Sometimes I work on the weekends. You guys are getting 108 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: paid fifteen twenty twenty five fifty million dollars go play 109 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: eighty two basketball games a year. I don't care if 110 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:57,799 Speaker 1: your body hurts. 111 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 7: But then there are still the people who will sort 112 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 7: of side with the players and say no, like I 113 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 7: get it because I'm watching the game and it's way 114 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 7: faster than it was before, and there are way more guys, 115 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 7: you know, with their eyes at the rim and a 116 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 7: lot more physicality. You've got like guys like Bam out 117 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 7: of Bio who will just absolutely maul you in the paint. 118 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 7: But still you got to chase them out there because 119 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 7: he's gonna take a three as well. Like it's impossible 120 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 7: to do that and say, Okay, everything's like it was 121 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 7: in the past. It just wasn't. So you again have 122 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 7: to prepare yourself for it. And you know, they keep 123 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,479 Speaker 7: adding this and people don't talk about this part, right, Stu, 124 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 7: How long ago was it when there were far less 125 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 7: games in the playoffs? Right, You didn't have the seven 126 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 7: games stories every single time. Yes, are much longer now, Yeah, 127 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 7: and they're more spread, and so yeah, you just got 128 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 7: to You're gonna have to deal and you're gonna have 129 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 7: to prepare your body, and you're gonna these players who 130 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 7: probably have the sympathy of people who have no idea 131 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 7: what it's like to be a professional athlete, are gonna 132 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 7: have to admit that. 133 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, we could try a little harder. 134 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: Just from a fan standpoint, you know, the physicality, the 135 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: the staying in shape, the actice, how you play, all 136 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: that stuff sounds good. But I would like a shorter 137 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: season because the way you create stakes, the way you 138 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: create urgency, is by not playing eighty two games. Give 139 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: me a fifty game sprint. I'm good with that. Same 140 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: with baseball. By the way, you know, you lose me 141 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: game ninety four of the regular we're playing ninety four 142 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: bleep in regular season baseball games. Give me one hundred 143 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: and let's call it a day and get to the playoffs. 144 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: I just want more stakes, and I want urgency, and 145 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: I want this stuff. The regular season in these leagues 146 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: to feel the way the NFL feels during the regular season, 147 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: the way college football feels during the regular season, where 148 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: every week feels like it's a playoff week. 149 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 7: The best case for shortening the season is not going 150 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 7: to be player injuries, because they'll, you know, they'll do 151 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 7: what I just did. They'll give you science and they'll 152 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 7: give you a bunch of reasons as to why the players' 153 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 7: bodies can handle it. The best reason for it is 154 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 7: to say the product will be better if you cut 155 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 7: out Let's just say twelve games, fifteen sixteen games, and 156 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 7: then introduce what is that, maybe twenty to thirty more 157 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 7: practice days. It's going to look better when they actually 158 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 7: do play in theory, right, And so if you say 159 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 7: to the NBA, hey, the problem is people aren't tuning in, 160 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 7: and you want people to tune in. How do you 161 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 7: get them to tune in? A, you know their best 162 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 7: player is going to play number one, but B when 163 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 7: they do, it's going to look amazing. It's going to 164 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 7: look like, you know, some of the best basketball you've 165 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 7: ever seen. It's a bubble basketball, if you will. And 166 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 7: so I think that's the best case that they would have. 167 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 7: But it's a lot of pressure then on these teams 168 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 7: to then perform if they do shorten the amount of 169 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 7: game busy. 170 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: We're we're at about sixty two games right now. We 171 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: know the teams that are good, we know the teams 172 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: that are contenders. I don't need another twenty games to 173 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: spell out that San Antonio is really really good and 174 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: as a shot at winning it, especially in. 175 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 7: The NBA, where you've got teams that announce from the 176 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 7: very beginning, like after ten games, it's all right, shutting 177 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 7: it down, take time, you know. So it usually works 178 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 7: out where you can tell, all right, these are the 179 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 7: six teams that are definitely going to be on the top. 180 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 7: These are the four teams or five teams that are 181 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 7: fighting for playoff or play in and then everybody else 182 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 7: is just out of it. And so unless they change that, yeah, 183 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 7: you're right. You can get to a point in January 184 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 7: and you're like, yeah, I know who the playoff teams are. 185 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: I will get to Kelly in North Carolina in a second. 186 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: I used Taylor boardop Ricardo, Mikey as a gauge for 187 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: the audience and you know, just in terms of their 188 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: interest and if they're shaking their heads, if they're into 189 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: the conversation. 190 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 2: But I have lost them. I have lost bordop Ricardo, 191 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: I have lost Taylor. I have no idea.

Adam Silver talked about it, you know, 243 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 7: referenced sponsors a lot, which goes to show you that 244 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 7: you know people who pay for, you know, their products 245 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 7: to be on the court or anywhere with the Atlanta 246 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 7: Hawks probably don't want to be affiliated with Strip Club Night. 247 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 7: And again, I'm not gonna go as far as even 248 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 7: somebody like Luke Cornett who says it's disrespectful to women. 249 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 5: I believe. 250 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 7: I choose to believe that everybody participating or working there 251 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 7: is working on their own right. They choose to work there, 252 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 7: and they're doing their job, and it's all great. It 253 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 7: has nothing to do with the actual people working there. 254 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 7: It has to do with what their product is to 255 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 7: you know, younger children and family members who maybe don't 256 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 7: want to not necessarily even see it, just think about it. 257 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 7: I don't want to have to explain to my kid, Oh, 258 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 7: it's a strip club that women dance over there. 259 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 5: Blah blah blah, blah blah. 260 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 7: It's different than a Pride night, entirely different than a 261 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 7: Pride night, because what you're explaining is that they're a 262 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 7: different group of people that are alive. 263 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 5: That's entirely different than what people do for work. 264 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 7: And so yeah, I think it was the right move 265 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 7: to get rid of it, to sort of cancel it. 266 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 7: You know, the Hawks can say it was going to 267 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 7: be family friendly all you want, but at the heart 268 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 7: of it, it's still a strip club night, and so yeah, 269 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 7: it's probably not great for the kids to be around that. 270 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 4: So we're taking gambling money, we're taking alcohol money, but 271 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 4: where we draw the line, no strip. 272 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: Clubs, It seems absurd. 273 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 5: You're seriously saying that that's the same thing. 274 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 7: You're saying that we as a as a civilization, as 275 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 7: a community have put alcohol and strippers on the same plane, 276 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 7: Like we've normalized alcohol all the time, obviously, but they're 277 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 7: not or partially naked people dancing while I'm drinking. 278 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you're honoring an institution inside of the city 279 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: of at last. 280 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 7: Yea an institution for adults only, and really institution the 281 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 7: kids aren't allowed it. 282 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: I mean kids can't gamble either, and they can't drink. 283 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 7: I mean, okay, and it's probably something you can have 284 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 7: a more reasonable conversation with with your kid, who probably don't. 285 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 5: Even have money to gamble. 286 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 2: Right. 287 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: The strip club is a hard one to explain away 288 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 1: at the basketball game. 289 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 2: I thought this was a chicken wing establishment and that's it. 290 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: You're like, oh, what's the problem? 291 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 7: Like I said, when it happened, I wasn't outraged by it. 292 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 7: I said, hey, you can't complain about other stuff if 293 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 7: this is what you're doing.

Quite frankly, people 328 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 3: can appreciate the greatness of New York and also the 329 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 3: special nature of la in Vancouver, though, which is a 330 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 3: beautiful city. I mean it's esthetically pleasing, it's Canada's most 331 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 3: beautiful city.

He's churning butter like, well, I've got 500 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 3: to make ends meat, so I'm going to go weld 501 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 3: some metal because we're not making that much as ballplayer. 502 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 3: It's amazing, And Taylor, I share your enthusiasm, not full board. 503 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 2: But like on a lukewarm level. 504 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 3: Like I'm watching it and the only way that I'm 505 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 3: salvaging that Canada loss is I keep telling myself, and 506 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 3: it's pure sour grapes. So I'm like it was. It 507 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 3: was a glorified exhibition. I said, you just threw these 508 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 3: guys together for two weeks. 509 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 2: The real robins a joke. 510 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 3: Who cares about Canada France is if that's a tune up? 511 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 3: And then in one game, anything can happen, great goal, 512 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: et cetera. So this doesn't mean that USA is better 513 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 3: than that it just spent in two weeks they were 514 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 3: even though it is you guys won, you are better. 515 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 3: But I tell myself, so baseball soothe yourself. 516 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 5: Yes, of course, right. 517 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 2: The World Baseball Class. 518 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 3: I'm watching it, and when Great Britain is leading one 519 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 3: nothing after five, I'm like, Wow, the USA is no 520 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,959 Speaker 3: longer the superpower we thought Great Britain is.
