11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 2: teams are in action today, fifteen games to wrap up

12
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 2: the regular season. And let's put it this way, we

13
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 2: could take the entire three hours to try to explain

14
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 2: all the different playoff scenarios. I've never seen an NBA

15
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: season end with so many uncertainties as far as who

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 2: is going to play who in both the play in

17
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: tournament and the playoffs.

18
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 3: Uh, it's pretty magnificent when you really think about it. However,

19
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 3: I will say this, does this not annoy everybody else?

20
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 3: You know, I get that there's intrigue, I get that

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 3: there's you know, just about every single NBA market can

22
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 3: have a claim to the postseason down the stretch of

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: the season. But that makes the regular season less important overall.

24
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 3: Of course, down the stretch of the regular season, games

25
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 3: become way more urgent, but it absolutely makes the postseason

26
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 3: less special because twenty teams get a legitimate shot in

27
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 3: your postseason to make it to the championship round, or

28
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 3: I should say, or win a championship. So I'm bothered

29
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 3: by how the NBA has structured the end of their

30
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 3: season and the beginning of their postseason because it's not special.

31
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 3: It doesn't feel like you got to be an incredibly

32
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 3: gifted team. In fact, there's gonna be probably sub five

33
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 3: hundred team's getting into postseasons here and now and into

34
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 3: the future.

35
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: Well last year, remember we had the Heat go from

36
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 2: the play in round all the way to the NBA Finals,

37
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 2: and we had the Lakers from the play in round

38
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: make it to the Western Conference finals. So you know,

39
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 2: it's like the first four in the NCAA Basketball Tournament.

40
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 2: I understand what you're saying. I mean, at the professional level,

41
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 2: that you have twenty of the thirty teams extend their

42
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: season beyond the regular season is excessive. The idea that

43
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: they I mean, they're going to point to what's happening

44
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 2: on this final day of the regular season saying.

45
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: Hey, it works. Look at this, I mean, look at it.

46
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: I mean, let's just talk about the Los Angeles Lakers

47
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: and their scenario right now. So the Lakers go into

48
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 2: the final day as the eighth seed. Now under the

49
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 2: old format, that would qualify and for the playoffs, they.

50
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: Would be the eighth seed.

51
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: By the end of the day, they could be back

52
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 2: to the ten seed. The Lakers are on the road

53
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 2: against the Pelicans. The Pelicans have to win to guarantee

54
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 2: them not being in the play and round, because if

55
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: the Pelicans lose and the Suns win, the Sons would

56
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 2: be the sixth seed. Pelicans go into the play in round.

57
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 2: So the Lakers on the road against a team that

58
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,399
Speaker 2: needs to win today. Meanwhile, the Warriors are home against

59
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: a Jazz team that's already out of the playoffs, and

60
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 2: the Kings are home against the awful Blazers.

61
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: So you got to believe that.

62
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 2: The Kings and Warriors at home are gonna win games

63
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 2: against teams that have nothing to play for. And if

64
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 2: the Lakers lose on the road to the Pelicans, which

65
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: they probably will, then the Lakers are ten seat And

66
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, you got Lebron and Anthony

67
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 2: Davis on the road against either the Kings or Warriors,

68
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: and if they lose their out, I mean again, you

69
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 2: want to keep your stars in the spotlight as much

70
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 2: as possible, and this could be counterproductive for the NBA.

71
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 2: So again, we're not gonna try to sit here and say, well,

72
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 2: if this team wins, I mean it would take all

73
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: day to try to figure out the scenarios. I just

74
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 2: look at this NBA Playoffs and I say to myself,

75
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 2: based on the eyeball test, this should end up, after

76
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: all said and done, a matchup between the Celtics and

77
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: the Nuggets.

78
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

79
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 2: I mean the Celtics obviously have just steamrolled through the

80
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference unless I don't know how a team in

81
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: the East is going to beat them in a four

82
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 2: out of seven series. No, and the Nuggets, obviously, even

83
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: though I know, look Oklahoma City, Minnesota, they're great stories,

84
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: but they don't have a proven track record like the

85
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 2: Nuggets have after winning the championship year ago.

86
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 1: So unless there's.

87
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 2: A colossal upset, I mean, that's where I think we're

88
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: going in terms of an NBA Finals matchup.

89
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's one of those one of those things in

90
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 3: Boston where Brad Stevens left the bench and became one

91
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: of the best basketball executives in the sport, and that

92
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 3: transition I think gives you even more perspective on how

93
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 3: to be a great executive, knowing what it feels like

94
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 3: to be the guy who's at the you know, on

95
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 3: the last seat on the bench and making all the

96
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,239
Speaker 3: decisions on the court. And so I think the Boston

97
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 3: Celtics are one of the most hemmed up franchises in

98
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 3: the league right now, and it's going to be tough

99
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: to beat them, not now, but also what it is

100
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: tough to beat them now but also into the future

101
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 3: because they're a very stable franchise. And then the Denver Nuggets,

102
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: they're doing it the same way, but it's starting at

103
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 3: the ground level with the players. You know, with Jokic,

104
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 3: I mean, he's steady Eddie. He is going to be

105
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 3: the same star every single season. You know, of course,

106
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 3: you're going to want to count your blessings that he's

107
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 3: not not incurred any major injuries or anything like that

108
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 3: to slow down what has been a dominant span. But

109
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 3: that's absolutely a player you can build around, and I

110
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: don't see him going anywhere. I don't think this is

111
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 3: the type of player or the personality who's going to

112
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 3: chase fame and stardom around the NBA like Lebron James did.

113
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 3: I don't think he's he wants to have the multi

114
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 3: franchise championship tag too his legacy.

115
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 4: I don't think it matters to him.

116
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 3: I think that this is what you see, what you

117
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 3: get with Jokich, and what you see as a guy

118
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 3: who's dedicated to winning and to the sport and to

119
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 3: playing great basketball and then going back to his home

120
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 3: country of Serbia and I guess buying horses in the

121
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 3: offseason and then come back and do it all over again.

122
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 3: And like I said, with Boston, they just have a

123
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 3: very stable franchise. So until further notice, this is what

124
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 3: the West and the East in the NBA is going

125
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 3: to look like.

126
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 4: All roads go through those two cities.

127
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 2: That's a problem though, when you talk about Jokich from

128
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: a basketball standpoint, he is near perfection. When do you

129
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: think about it again, look at his numbers this year,

130
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: as he is most likely gonna win his third MVP

131
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 2: Award in the last four years, twenty six and a

132
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: half points a game, twelve and a half rebounds a game, nine.

133
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: Assists a game.

134
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: I mean, these are remarkable numbers for a by and

135
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: large non athletic basketball player, which is why he was

136
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 2: a second round pick. But obviously we're talking about a

137
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 2: guy whose basketball IQ is literally off the charts and

138
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 2: does he's like Tim Duncan was with San Antonio, and

139
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: he's more of a passer than Duncan.

140
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: But you know, it's.

141
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 2: So funny we talk about this Caitlin Clark situation. Fred Ridley,

142
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw this. Fred Ridley, who's

143
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 2: the chairman of the Masters, was asked a question by

144
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:48,679
Speaker 2: Christine Brennan of USA Today and on the LPGA tour

145
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 2: right now.

146
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 3: There is a.

147
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: Woman that has won four straight tournaments and she was

148
00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 2: asking why this US play who's won four straight tournaments

149
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: is not getting the kind of attention that Caitlyn Clark got.

150
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 2: And I thought, Fred really fred Ridley said it best

151
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 2: he goes when it comes to athletes. And by the way,

152
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: this Nellie Korda is her name, Nellie Cordy. She's won

153
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 2: four straight tournaments and she's, you know, a US golfer

154
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: and everything.

155
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: I mean, she checks a lot of boxes here, he said,

156
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: no one knows who she is.

157
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 2: And so he said, look, you can't explain why it

158
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: is that certain athletes like a Michael Jordan back in

159
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: the day, like a Tiger Woods, why it is they

160
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 2: literally move the needle. But Caitlin Clark has the it factor.

161
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: It can't. It's not just doing well.

162
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 2: There's a lot of great athletes to do special things

163
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 2: in their individual sports. But why do certain athletes move

164
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 2: the needle? He goes, I'll be honest with you, I

165
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 2: don't watch women's basketball. I watched her last three games.

166
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 2: I mean, the women's final got a bigger number than

167
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 2: the men's and it wasn't even close.

168
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 3: Although the women's final, I mean it started encroaching into

169
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 3: the territory or beating some of the numbers that we

170
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,439
Speaker 3: see for primetime NFL game.

171
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I mean it blew away the average on

172
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: Thursday night football. I have eighteen million people are watching

173
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 2: that South Carolina Iowa game. But that gets down to

174
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 2: a guy like Jokic, as great as he is, he.

175
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: Ain't moving the needle. No, I mean we had that run.

176
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: You and I were a big part of that.

177
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 2: You know, when we had Steph versus Lebron in four

178
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 2: consecutive NBA finals. That moved the needle. You know, you

179
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 2: had Lebron and Steph. Those guys moved the needle. Yeah,

180
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 2: when they get on the biggest exactly. But it's even

181
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 2: more than that. You gotta be Steph Curry is that

182
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 2: next level star, Lebron is that next level star. Because

183
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 2: then what happens is to me, if you're moving the needle,

184
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: it has to be on both ends.

185
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: In other words, you're you're so polarizing.

186
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: And Caitlin Klars is experiencing this where she has obviously

187
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: a lot of fans, but a lot of detractors.

188
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

189
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's.

190
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: When you know you're really moving the needle.

191
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 3: When you are a star, whether you like it or not,

192
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 3: you're going to have just as many many people who

193
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 3: hate you as you have people who love you. But

194
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 3: you'll have all of the people, or i should say

195
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: all of those people interested in you. And see, that's

196
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 3: the thing that a lot of people struggle with because

197
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 3: it's difficult to handle that life. You got to have

198
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 3: rhino skin. You got to be able to continue performing

199
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 3: in your given sport. We're talking, of course about a

200
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 3: sports star there's obviously stars in every business. There's stars enacting,

201
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 3: there's stars in politics, there's stars in many in music,

202
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 3: in many different professions that are of interest to a

203
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 3: wide stretching.

204
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 4: Sampling of people.

205
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 3: And in sports, the problem for a basketball player, the

206
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 3: problem for a baseball player, the problem for even a

207
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 3: football player is whether it's seventeen games or one hundred

208
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 3: and sixty two or eighty two nights, you got to

209
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 3: go out there and perform like a star. And if

210
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 3: you don't, well, you're gonna lose your stardom because people

211
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: are gonna be like, ah, as soon as the lights

212
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 3: turned on, they couldn't handle it. You know, they were

213
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 3: a great but they were great when they didn't receive

214
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,679
Speaker 3: all the attention that a star receives. And then as

215
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 3: soon as the heat started again turned up on this player.

216
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 3: And this has happened in the past, We've seen it

217
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: many times, all of a sudden, the play started to suffer. Well,

218
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 3: Caitlin Clark, to her credit, she's an absolute star. She

219
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 3: could handle the spotlight and she performed arguably even better

220
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 3: with the spotlight on her.

221
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 4: A guy like.

222
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 3: Jokic, now everybody would love to make him a star.

223
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 3: But he doesn't want it, and there are ways to

224
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 3: avoid it. There are ways to throw water on it,

225
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 3: and he's done everything in his power to throw water

226
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 3: on it. He's done it. Another NBA or in Kawhi

227
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: Leonard has done it any chance that there was to

228
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 3: make him into a superstar. And trust me, media outlets

229
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 3: and sports stations have wanted to do this for years

230
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 3: and he only does the press that's required of him.

231
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 3: Same with Jokich. He only answers questions the way he

232
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: wants to. He never thinks about the fan or what

233
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 3: would the fan think is fun or cool? Or how

234
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 3: to make myself more available to the fan. No, he's

235
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 3: not interested in that. You know, Kawhi Leonard just wants

236
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 3: to be a basketball player, and that's okay. You know,

237
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 3: Jokich all he wants to be as a basketball player

238
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 3: and in the offseason he wants everyone to just leave

239
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 3: him alone. And that's okay, except if you're an NBA

240
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 3: executive and you realize, oh my gosh, for the next

241
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 3: three years, it feels like we may have Jokic winning

242
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 3: finals and finals MVPs and it does nothing for anybody.

243
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and that's the problem. If the face

244
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 2: of your Tim Duncan was white. This way with San Antonio.

245
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 2: I mean every time the Spurs were in the finals,

246
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 2: the ratings dropped dramatically. I mean, if you look at

247
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: their five championships, every one of those years, those ratings

248
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 2: for the NBA finals were way down. And and you know, again,

249
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 2: Tim Dugget didn't care. Greg Papavisch didn't care. They were

250
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: out there to win championships. But this is where the

251
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: NBA is right now. If the Nuggets win another championship,

252
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 2: which I still think if it's if it's a Nugget

253
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 2: Celtics final, I'm taking the Nuggets. I just think they

254
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,839
Speaker 2: have more depth and they have the dominant player on

255
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 2: the court in Yokich. All right, coming up on the

256
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 2: other side, we're going to talk about what maybe the

257
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 2: end of an era for one of the greatest names

258
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: in sports. This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvey, Rich Hornberger.

Speaker 2: the air. All right, so the final three groups in

268
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 2: this year's Masters are about to tee off. I'll have

269
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 2: Bryson De'shambeau, Xanderschaffle, Max Homer and Ludwig Oberg, and then

270
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: the final pairing of Scotti Scheffler and Colin Morikawa.

271
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: It should be a great day.

272
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 2: By the way, There's been already a couple of good

273
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 2: scores posted today, So after a couple of tough days,

274
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: a lot of winning everything else, it looks like today

275
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,680
Speaker 2: has got perfect day out of Augusta National. So it

276
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: is a very possible day for somebody to shoot a

277
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: low score and come away with that green jacket. One

278
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 2: guy that will not walk away with a green jacket

279
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 2: and has secured his spot at the bottom of the

280
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 2: list in this year's Masters is Tiger Woods. Of the

281
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 2: sixty golfers that made the cut this year, Tiger will

282
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 2: finish dead last, as he finished at sixteen over par

283
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: shot a seventy seven today after yesterday's eighty two, which

284
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 2: was his Sia score.

285
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: Ever.

286
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 2: At the Masters, he of course made the cut, which

287
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 2: was a record twenty fourth consecutive year that he made

288
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 2: the cut. And Rich Yesterday, Montsie and I were talking

289
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 2: about this Tiger Woods situation, and she brought up the

290
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 2: fact that, you know, this might be the last Masters

291
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 2: he ever plays, because he broke this record, you know,

292
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 2: most consecutive cuts. I mean he has, you know, he's

293
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 2: never gonna get Let's put it this way. I mentioned

294
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 2: Arnold Palmer to her, who played in fifty consecutive Masters,

295
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 2: and I think he missed the cut the last twenty

296
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: five years, and he was okay with that. You know,

297
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 2: he'd go and play a couple of rounds, he'd wave

298
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 2: to the crowd. Arnold was always a fan favorite, but

299
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 2: Jack Nicholas didn't do that because Jack was of the mindset,

300
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 2: if I don't feel like I have a chance to win,

301
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be some ceremony, and I.

302
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: Don't think Tiger is that as well.

303
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I give Tiger immense credit for playing those

304
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 2: twenty three holes he had to play on Friday just

305
00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 2: to make the cut, and the fact that he didn't

306
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 2: withdraw like as painful as it was to watch him

307
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 2: the last couple of days. He made it to the

308
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 2: finish line, and I have nothing but admiration for the

309
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: man that has moved the needle like no man has

310
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 2: ever done will ever do again in a sport like golf.

311
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 2: But I just get a sense, and I think I

312
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: agree with what Montzi said. I would not be surprised

313
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 2: if Tiger announces, Hey, I'll be there for the Champions Dinner.

314
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 2: I'm there to support the Masters any way I can.

315
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 2: But I just can't. You know, with a fused ankle,

316
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: fuse back and everything else he has gone through. He's

317
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: forty eight years old. I can't see him putting himself

318
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 2: through this again.

319
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 3: Well, he would have to be different, meaning he would

320
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 3: have to be healthier. He would have to change the

321
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 3: way he plays again. You know Tiger Woods. If there's

322
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 3: one thing about his game that's still there, is he

323
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 3: plays like Tiger Woods. And I think he's gonna have

324
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 3: to walk back some of the risks that he's willing

325
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 3: to take on a golf course, walk back some of

326
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 3: the length that he's going to go off the t

327
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 3: box if he wants to sustain health through an entire tournament.

328
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 3: You know, he just can't. He can't swing them three

329
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 3: hundred yards and expect his body to stay together for

330
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 3: a full round of golf.

331
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 4: He just can't do that anymore.

332
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 3: Or really, I guess he could put together a full

333
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 3: round or maybe even two full rounds of golf. He

334
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 3: was playing about par golf before he really fell apart

335
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 3: on Saturday. And it's it like you said, it's sad

336
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 3: to watch.

337
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 4: It's sad to see.

338
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,400
Speaker 3: But you know, if he has to take I don't

339
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 3: know what fifty yards off his drive, you know, if

340
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 3: he has to take like you know, start to play

341
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 3: a little bit more old man senior PGA golf, like

342
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 3: where you know, it's two hundred and fifty yards, but

343
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 3: it's straight down the fairway every time, nice easy swing.

344
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, it's not gonna be the Sunday Tiger

345
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 3: that we're used to, but you can still be. You

346
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 3: could still transition into a game that you shoot low,

347
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 3: that you could still play on the PGA Tour with

348
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 3: you just you just have to change again who you

349
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,120
Speaker 3: are in this game. You have to evolve from who

350
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 3: you've been in this game. I don't know if he's

351
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 3: willing to make those changes, because you even see him

352
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 3: at the driving range. I mean, he's hitting his driver,

353
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 3: you know what, like twenty something times, and every single

354
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 3: one is three hundred yards down range, and he's you know,

355
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 3: he's working on our right. Am I gonna draw this one?

356
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 3: And I'm gonna fade this one slightly? Am I gonna

357
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 3: pipe this one straight down the middle? High shots, low shots,

358
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 3: you know, depending on what type of fairway he's attacking.

359
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 3: He's working on all that still, and so it's not

360
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 3: just the t shots all throughout the week while he's

361
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 3: actually playing. It's the whatever it is, one hundred, two hundred,

362
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 3: three hundred practice tee shots he's taking before the Masters

363
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,919
Speaker 3: are during the Masters. So I agree with you, it's sad.

364
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 3: But at the same time, it showed a lot of

365
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 3: guts the fact that he was able to finish four

366
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 3: rounds of golf.

367
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: No question about that.

368
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 2: I mean, again, he'd only played one round of competitive

369
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 2: golf this year.

370
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, one round, and then he drew up there at

371
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 1: Jennet Riviera, and so.

372
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 2: You know, and he admitted, well, again, he had to

373
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 2: play the five extra holes on Friday because of the

374
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 2: delay with the weather on Thursday, and for him to

375
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 2: play twenty three holes on that course, which every golfer

376
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 2: is acknowledged, is the toughest walking court you'll ever see.

377
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 4: I mean it is.

378
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 2: There's just no flat round once you leave the tea box.

379
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 2: There is no flat round the rest of the way

380
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 2: until you get to the next tea box. So yeah,

381
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 2: I mean, look, Tiger obviously owes nothing to anyone. He

382
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 2: is given back ten times more than he can ever

383
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 2: receive in terms of his value to the game of golf.

384
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 2: And he got this record, you know, twenty four consecutic

385
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 2: cuts made, which is remarkable in itself. But are we

386
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 2: going to see him at the US Open. We're going

387
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 2: to see him next week next month at the PGA,

388
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 2: the Open Championship. I'm sure he'll try, But what we're

389
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 2: seeing is for his body right now to get through

390
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 2: four full rounds of golf and play at a level

391
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 2: that makes him competitive to win that tournament, it just

392
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 2: doesn't seem likely at this point.

393
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 1: And again, he had a near fatal car accident.

394
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 2: It's one thing for him to overcome the four back

395
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 2: surgeries he had in order to win that miraculous Masters

396
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen, but the devastation of that leg of

397
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 2: the injury he suffered in that car accident.

398
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: That probably was it well.

399
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 3: And remember there was one point during the tournament where

400
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,159
Speaker 3: he was I don't know, I guess he was waiting

401
00:20:59,320 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 3: for an approach.

402
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 4: You know, they're waiting for the green to clear.

403
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 3: And I don't know if it was on the broadcast

404
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 3: or if it was you know, on the ESPN Plus brought,

405
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 3: you know, whatever it was. But there's you know, obviously

406
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 3: you can follow some of these groups the entire way

407
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 3: you can follow specific golfers. So there's a camera on

408
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 3: Tiger Woods the entire round of golf. I believe this

409
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 3: was on Saturday, And so there was one point where

410
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 3: he's literally stripping off his he's unbuckling his pants and

411
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 3: he's got icy hot or some sort of like you know,

412
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 3: Ben Gay or some you know, and he's rubbing it

413
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 3: on his lower back and on his hip, and he's

414
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 3: trying to get you know something, you know, to probably

415
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 3: knock down some of the pain he's feeling, because yeah,

416
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 3: I understand like he injured that leg during during that

417
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 3: car accident. The leg, the leg honestly during golfing, you know,

418
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 3: it made it may be the least painful because you

419
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,919
Speaker 3: got to remember, with a back that's been surgically repaired

420
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 3: four times over, you got into an accident that does

421
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 3: no favors for your back, and then on top of it,

422
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 3: you're walking with a limp because you're still recovering from

423
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 3: a leg injury. And he really didn't let that leg

424
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 3: injury completely hill before he was golfing again.

425
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 4: So what does that do to your spine? What does

426
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 4: that do to your back?

427
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,120
Speaker 3: I'm sure this guy is lit up in pain every

428
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 3: single time he swings a golf club. And the fact

429
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 3: that he was able to make it was his twenty

430
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 3: fourth consecutive cut, yep. I mean, I'm that's again an

431
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 3: accomplishment that may never be beaten. And then you when

432
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 3: you start thinking about all of the accomplishments that he's

433
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 3: been able to pile up. I don't know how many

434
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 3: more we have left to see. But this one wasn't

435
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 3: lost on me. I appreciated it, and like you said,

436
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 3: like you talked about yesterday, this could very well be

437
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 3: the last time we see Tiger Woods play at a

438
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 3: master's Yeah, I just I.

439
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 2: Don't see him being a ceremonial guy, which Palmer was

440
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 2: for years, which was great for Palmer. But Tiger plays

441
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 2: to win, Nicholas played to win when Nicholas felt like,

442
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 2: I can't do this anymore because I can't honestly say

443
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 2: to myself I have a chance to win this tournament.

444
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 2: And I just and I know Tiger's admiration for Nicholas

445
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 2: and his legacy, and I think he wants to follow

446
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 2: in those footsteps if I don't feel like I because

447
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: he was thinking, you know, after Friday, hey, I have

448
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 2: a chance here, and then the reality said it on Saturday,

449
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,680
Speaker 2: what he had put his body through just to make

450
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,239
Speaker 2: the cut. Uh, and there was no gas left. All right,

451
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 2: let's find out what is trending right now? And Monsy

452
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 2: is here rich and now you and Monsey have something

453
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 2: in common.

454
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 6: What we've both been to Hartman's chateau.

455
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, so you were up there.

456
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 5: I was.

457
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 7: I was, Oh yeah, just hanging out, having a little dinner,

458
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 7: a little wine, a little you know, baked goods. Said

459
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 7: and that just makes you want to, you know, cry,

460
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 7: because they're so good and it's just not fair how good.

461
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 8: They are, you know, you know, oh, I know, yeah

462
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 8: he has really been there, done that. Yeah, yeah, I know,

463
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 8: actually made chocolate chip cookies.

464
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 9: No, not this, not this time.

465
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 7: She made some snicker doodle deliciousness along with this banana

466
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 7: bread thing.

467
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 9: Of magic that just makes you wonder how it's possible.

468
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 7: And then she made these other muffins that were like

469
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,159
Speaker 7: a mix of like chocolate chip, a little bit of.

470
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 1: Was it also a banana but also vegan? These are

471
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: these are vegan?

472
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 4: Yes?

473
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 6: Yes, you know, so no calories basically exactly.

474
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: Well, I was talking to your boyfriend Sean about this one.

475
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 2: He had said that somebody else had advertised himself as

476
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 2: the best banana bread ever.

477
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: And he said this put a to shame.

478
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was an even And and I said, well, Sean,

479
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: I'm sure you're an entrepreneurial spirit in you.

480
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 1: What about you know, maybe doing some business here right? Yes?

481
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 7: And he was He's like, oh, I'm going to take

482
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 7: this to set. I'm gonna make this be a thing

483
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 7: for all the shows that he's.

484
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 3: A part of.

485
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 2: I mean, if there's Missus Fields, you know, well, and

486
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 2: the I guess the other thing that sort of shocked

487
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 2: her is Denise calling me daddy, which you're well aware.

488
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,760

Speaker 3: they all call him daddy.

492
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 4: And then also his ex wife Denise calls him daddy.

493
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: So good, it's so good. And then our buddy Danny

494
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: Woodhead would call me daddy.

495
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 2: Well that's right, yeah, yeah, we we might promoted this

496
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,720

00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 6: Like, you know, it was so good, it was so

500
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 6: good to hear it throughout the night.

501
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 7: I was like, how am I I'm gonna start accidentally

502
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 7: calling him daddy just because I heard.

503
00:25:59,080 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 4: It so much.

504
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: I never buddy's daddy. That's okay, I could take that.

505
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 3: I bullieve me.

506
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: I've been called a lot worse than daddy.

507
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:06,920
Speaker 9: I believe that.

508
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 2: I believe that is Well, we had a wonderful time,

509
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 2: and you guys are amazing.

510
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 9: Likewise, No, we.

511
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 7: Had a lovely, lovely fun time. Yes, even though it

512
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,640
Speaker 7: was raining, we still had a great great time.

513
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't get to enjoy the backyard, but outside

514
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 2: of that, everything else was killed yeo, incredible.

515
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 6: It really really was.

516
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 7: All right, let's check in on the NBA because so

517
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 7: much is going on.

518
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, can you break down every playoff scenario?

519
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 4: Oh?

520
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 9: I can't, but I'll do the basics.

521
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 7: How about that Milwaukee, New York, Cleveland fighting for the

522
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 7: second seed in the East. So right now, the Bucks

523
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 7: are losing to the Magic at halftime, well, actually halfway

524
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 7: through the third quarter, they're still losing in Orlando eighty

525
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 7: sixty two to fifty five. Again, halfway through the third quarter,

526
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 7: the Knicks are beating the Bulls sixty four to sixty two.

527
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 7: Halfway through the third as well, the Calves are beating

528
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 7: the Hornets ninety six to eighty eight. They're about to

529
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,360
Speaker 7: start the fourth quarter. Then there's the other side where

530
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 7: you have Orlando, Indiana, Philly and Miami trying to take

531
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 7: the fifth seed. So then Heat are right now beating

532
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 7: the Raptors seventy five to sixty one. Halfway through the third.

533
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 7: The seventy six Ers playing without Joel and beat as

534
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 7: a precautionary reason, he did tweak his knee on Friday

535
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 7: against the Magic.

536
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 9: But the Sixers are beating the Nets seventy to fifty six.

537
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 7: Late in the third quarter, and the Pacers are currently

538
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 7: up on the Hawks at home one oh four to

539
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 7: eighty six.

540
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 9: Halfway through the third the game.

541
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 7: That doesn't really matter, Celtics are beating the Wizards ninety

542
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,680
Speaker 7: seven to seventy four, also late in the third quarter.

543
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 7: A little roundup of what's happening in Major League Baseball.

544
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 7: Tyler O'Neill now leads the league in home runs. He

545
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 7: just hit his seventh home run for the Red Sox,

546
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 7: but the Red Sox are tied with the Angels at two.

547
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 9: Apiece bottom of the third inning.

548
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 7: The Birds and the Orioles are tied at three apiece

549
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 7: top of the fourth, Pirates and Phillies tied at one

550
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 7: apiece bottom of the fourth.

551
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 9: Blue Jays blanking the Rockies three zero.

00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 7: Top of the fourth. The Braves have added some more runs.

553
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 7: They're up on the Marlins five to one. Top of

00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 7: two top of the fourth. Jose Altuve just hit a

558
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 7: home run for the Astros.

559
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,199
Speaker 9: They're up on the rangers one zero top of this second.

560
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 9: A lot going on today.

561
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 7: You mentioned already Tiger Woods finishing five over for the day,

562
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 7: sixteen over for the entire tournament, and soon we will

563
00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 7: have Scotty Scheffler and Colin Morikawa t enof. It should

564
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 7: be any minute, maybe a couple of minutes or so,

565
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 7: but there's at to tee off any minute.

566
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 9: Who are the leaders of the tournament?

567
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 1: Back to you, guys, I have an update, Scotti.

568
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 2: Scheffler just did tea off and Marikawa was about to

569
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 2: tee off right now. Scheffler's dribe right down the middle

570
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 2: to start his final round, and of course he has

571
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 2: a one shot laid over Colin Marikawa in this year's Masters.

572
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: Monci, It's great to see you guys.

573
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 3: Last year.

574
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 1: We're checking with you a little bit later on Jaz

575
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: all right.

576
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 2: Speaking of Scotty Scheffler, rich as fathers ourselves, he had

577
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 2: made it clear his wife is not due for a

578
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 2: couple of more weeks with their first child, but he

579
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 2: said if she should go into labor, he would immediately

580
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 2: withdraw from.

581
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: The Masters to be by her side.

582
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: Now, let's say he has a three shot lead at

583
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: the turn today. Let's say he's through nine holes and

584
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 2: he has a three shot lead, and all of a

585
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 2: sudden he gets noticed that his wife has gone into

586
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 2: labor with nine holes to play in a three shot

587
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 2: lead at the Masters, Yeah, because you still would have

588
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 2: at least a couple hours left in your round. I mean,

589
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 2: even at the turn, you're still two hours away from

590
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 2: the finish line. Do you really believe that he would

591
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 2: immediately withdraw with a three shot lead with nine holes

592
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 2: to play for his second green jacket to be there

593
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 2: for the delivery of his first child.

594
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 4: There is no chance he will walk off that.

595
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: Course.

596
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 4: There is no chance now if he does.

597
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 3: I mean, frankly, and I know this is an unpopular

598
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 3: opinion for a lot of people who think, like, well,

599
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 3: it's a once in a lifetime event having a kid,

600
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 3: and that's not true because you could have more than

601
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 3: one kid. And then also, now, don't get me wrong,

602
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 3: it's for that child, and it's for your first child.

603
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 3: And I understand how special and how you know how

604
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 3: serious childbirth is and how unbelievable it is when you

605
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 3: meet your first child and all those things. I went

606
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 3: through it, and trust me, I took time off from work,

607
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 3: and trust me, I was at my wife's side while

608
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 3: she was giving birth. But if I were, like, for example,

609
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 3: to use my sport that I came from as a comparison,

610
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 3: if I was the starting center for a team that

611
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 3: was playing in the Super Bowl and at the start

612
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 3: of the fourth quarter, I found out that my wife

613
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: was going into labor, and I had the choice to

614
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 3: either finish the game or to leave the building and

615
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 3: go run to maybe even a local hospital to see

616
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 3: the birth of my first child. I'm finishing the game,

617
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 3: and she knows that. And guess what, her whole family

618
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 3: knows that, and everybody I love knows that, and everybody's

619
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 3: gonna be supportive of that. And for anybody who can

620
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 3: understand that, that's fine. You, I mean, but you have

621
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 3: to understand that this is different. Like when you have

622
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 3: an opportunity to cement yourself and your family in a

623
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 3: leg and your family's name, you know, in a legacy

624
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 3: that very few human beings have ever been able to

625
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 3: do in the world of sports.

626
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 4: Like you're gonna finish that tournament.

627
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,959
Speaker 3: And so I don't know any I don't know anybody

628
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 3: who would really who plays sports, you know or understands them,

629
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 3: who would really disagree with that. I know there's a

630
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 3: lot of people who on the on the concept, they

631
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 3: would say, no, no, no, no matter what, you're there

632
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 3: for your wife. And that is true, except there are exceptions,

633
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 3: like there are exceptions like if you are in the

634
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 3: final round of the Masters and you are you have

635
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 3: a three stroke lead, you stay and you finished the round.

636
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.

637
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 5: Well.

638
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 2: There was one of the great what ifs on this

639
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 2: very subject matter back in nineteen ninety nine at the

640
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: US Open, when Payne Stewart and Phil Mickelson were in

641
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 2: the final pairing. There was a one shot difference going

642
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 2: into the final hole. Payne Stewart ended up burning that hole,

643
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 2: but conceivably they would have tied and had an eighteen

644
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 2: hole playoff the next day. That's back when they had

645
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 2: eighteen hole playoffs at the US Open and Phil Mickelson

646
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 2: was expecting the birth of his first child, and he

647
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 2: had said along the lines what Scotti Scheffler had said,

648
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 2: that if my wife goes into labor, I'll be with her.

649
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 2: And as a turned out, the next day was the

650
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 2: day that his daughter came into the world. Now, that

651
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,480
Speaker 2: would have been unbelievable if he had walked out of

652
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 2: a playoff to win the US Open, and he had

653
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 2: never won a major at that point, and of course,

654
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 2: as it's turned out, he's never won the US Open.

655
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: He's had six runner roughs, never won the only major

656
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: he never won.

657
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 2: Can you imagine if if he had made that decision

658
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 2: to walk away from a playoff and then go on

659
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 2: to never winning the US Open, and we look back saying, dude,

660
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 2: you were in a playoff, I mean you would you

661
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 2: had a chance.

662
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: To do it that year.

663
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 2: I mean, the fact that Scheffler's already won a Master's

664
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,480
Speaker 2: I think is a little bit different, you know, because

665
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 2: he's already got his green jacket. He's set to be

666
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 2: at Augusta National forever. But look, I'm not gonna take

667
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 2: away I cut the court on all three of my children.

668
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: Okay, So I.

669
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 2: Every every time that you are in the presence of

670
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 2: the birth of a child is obviously a day you'll

671
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 2: never forget, especially the first one.

672
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: Surreal situations.

673
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's I mean, like like rich, if we

674
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 2: were in the middle of our show, yeah yeah, no,

675
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 2: and I'm like, all right, final hour of our show

676
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden you get the you know,

677
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 2: notice that your wife has gone into labor.

678
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,919
Speaker 1: You're like, honey, look, I got to finish the show.

679
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sorry.

680
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 2: Ohand exactly not quite the same thing, by the way.

681
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 2: So Scheffler, Maricawa, the final pairing have teed off. So

682
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 2: everybody is in the mix right now in this final

683
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 2: round of the Masters. All right, we've got all the

684
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 2: NBA news.

685
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 1: To get too.

686
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,320
Speaker 2: We got the Masters going on, and can you believe it, folks,

687
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 2: we are less than two weeks away from the NFL Draft.

688
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,439
Speaker 2: A quick update on the other side. This is Fox

689
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday, Steve Harman and Rich Nberger Here Fox Sports Sunday.

690
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 2: We're live from the tai Iraq dot Com studios. Scottie

691
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 2: Scheffler call, callin Maricawa. Both part of the first hole.

692
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 2: So Cheffer is still with the one shot lead. One guy,

693
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 2: make a little bit of a move. Cameron Smith, the

694
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 2: former Open Champion now with the Live Golf Tour. He

695
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 2: eagled the second hole. He is at three hundred bar a,

696
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 2: still four shots out of the lead. So Rich, it

697
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 2: is a countdown to the NFL Draft. Yesterday, Adam Kaplan,

698
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 2: our Fox Sports Radio NFL insider, joined us and.

699
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 1: I said to him.

700
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,879
Speaker 2: It's been a little quiet, right. I mean, last year

701
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 2: we had all kinds of craziness going on. You know,

702
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 2: we thought, all right, we know Bryce Down's going to

703
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 2: go one, most likely CJ. Stroud's going to go to

704
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 2: Will Anderson three. But all of a sudden, no, no, no, no, no, no,

705
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 2: my draft Dave is like Will Levis is going to

706
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 2: be the second pick in the draft, and Will Anderson.

707
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: Oh no, he's dropping man.

708
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 2: And then the draft played out and we went back

709
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 2: to the original idea. Those were the top three picks

710
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 2: in the draft in Bryce Young, c J. Stroud, and

711
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 2: Will Anderson. And you know, obviously in the situation with

712
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 2: the Texans, they made the right choices. So here we

713
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 2: are sitting once again where we got the top repicks

714
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 2: seemingly in cement right with Caleb Williams, Jaden Daniels and

715
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 2: Drake May those three quarterbacks going respectively to the Bears,

716
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 2: the Commanders, and the Patriots. Then we get to the

717
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 2: next quarterback that's going to be taken. JJ McCarthy is

718
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 2: the real wild card in this year's draft, because if

719
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 2: you hear the draft evaluators of McCarthy, they say he's

720
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: a solid second round pick.

721
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: He's not a first round he's not where those other three.

722
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,440
Speaker 2: Quarterbacks are, But that doesn't mean he's going to be

723
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 2: a second round pick, and most likely he's going to

724
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 2: be a first round pick. The question is who's going

725
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 2: to bite hard on the apple to move up or

726
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 2: sit where they are in order to get a guy

727
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 2: like JJ McCarthy. So you and I have been through

728
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 2: a lot of these drafts right now, and I think

729
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 2: last year, I think we were not suckered into some

730
00:36:58,719 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 2: of the hot rumors out there.

731
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: How do you go about it?

732
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 2: When you start evaluating where guys are going to go

733
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 2: on the draft and you start hearing rumors all over

734
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 2: the place, what's real and what's not real?

735
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 3: Well, I would suggest anybody who is going to take

736
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 3: rumors at face value, you know, things that haven't been

737
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 3: stated publicly by front offices, and even some of those

738
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 3: by the way, and I'll get back to that point

739
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 3: as fact, you are sorely mistaken.

740
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 4: This is a liar's game draft time.

741
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 3: It's all about having people float out suspicions that this

742
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 3: guy's draft stock is getting boosted. And here's why. So

743
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 3: if all of a sudden there is a team that

744
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 3: has intrigue. For example, I don't know, maybe the Vikings,

745
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 3: after signing Sam Darnold as a security blanket this offseason

746
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 3: at the quarterback position, maybe they really do have eyes

747
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:57,399
Speaker 3: for JJ McCarthy. And maybe the longer they mullet over

748
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 3: inside the walls of their franchise war room, maybe they're

749
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:04,880
Speaker 3: loving them more and more and more. And all of

750
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 3: a sudden, you hear that, well, JJ McCarthy, his draft

751
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:11,280
Speaker 3: stock is rising, and there's other teams, there's multiple teams

752
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 3: interested in potentially trading up to get him. After the

753
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 3: first two quarterbacks or maybe first three quarterbacks are off

754
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 3: the board, well, maybe that encourages the Vikings to jump

755
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 3: up the board and trade with somebody who's looking to

756
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 3: trade down. So who could be floating that, I don't know,

757
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 3: Maybe the Arizona Cardinals, you know, maybe they're looking at

758
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 3: trade down. They already have a quarterback, so trading down

759
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 3: to eleven's no sweat for them. But if they can

760
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 3: get maximum value from a team like the Vikings or

761
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,360
Speaker 3: any team who's looking for a quarterback who's starting to

762
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 3: hear that, a team may leapfrog above them to get

763
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy, And that's what happens every year. There's a reason,

764
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 3: there's a why, and you have to think about why

765
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 3: am I hearing all of this about JJ McCarthy. In

766
00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,800
Speaker 3: my opinion, I think JJ McCarthy probably will.

767
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 4: Be a late first round or early second round quarterback.

768
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 3: But the reason why we're hearing so much about him

769
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 3: is because it feels like some of these other quarterbacks

770
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,120
Speaker 3: are slated. They're slotted, they're going to go when they go.

771
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,919
Speaker 3: But he's a wild card and he may be able

772
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 3: to encourage somebody to take a bite at the lore

773
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 3: and trade up so that they could go get him

774
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 3: and somebody else, and you know that elbows somebody else

775
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:25,759
Speaker 3: out of the picture frame. Yeah.

776
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 2: I look at the Vikings, who I think were blindsided.

777
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 2: I think they really felt Kirk Cousins was coming back.

778
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 2: They had no clue Atlanta was going to give him

779
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,239
Speaker 2: everything and beyond to lead. They not only have the

780
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 2: eleventh pick in the draft, they had the twenty ninth

781
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 2: pick in the draft. And if I'm the Vikings right now,

782
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 2: I'm going to give them advice just stay where you are,

783
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 2: Stay where you are. I don't think McCarthy's going to

784
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 2: go in the top ten. I really don't. And if

785
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 2: you like him, take him at eleven. If you don't

786
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 2: like him, you get another quarterback at twenty nine. Right,

787
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,240
Speaker 2: all right, coming up, we have much more on the Masters,

788
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,800

797
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 2: Scottie Scheffler one shot lead over Marikawa and Max Homer

798
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 2: right now.

799
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: By the way, interesting.

800
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,200
Speaker 2: Story here with the guy that's in sole fourth place,

801
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 2: two shots out of the league, Ludwig Oberg.

802
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 1: It's got an a, but I guess it's like an

803
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 1: o Oberg out of Sweden.

804
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 2: This guy has already won a PGA tournament, He's won

805
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,959
Speaker 2: a European tournament. He has played in the Ryder Cup.

806
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 2: He is ranked ninth in the World Golf rankings. He

807
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 2: has never played in a major golf Championship. This is

808
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:01,760
Speaker 2: his first major golf championship. I don't know how how

809
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 2: do you play in the Ryder Cup before actually ever

810
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 2: playing in a major golf championship. That's how good this

811
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 2: guy is out of Sweden. Right now, he's in sole

812
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 2: fourth place in the final round of the Master. So

813
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 2: this is like a name to remember, Ludwig Oberg.

814
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's It's pretty impressive when you see certain names

815
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 3: get close to the top of the lead aboard or

816
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 3: sustained throughout a tournament, especially one with as many eyes

817
00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,160
Speaker 3: on it as the Masters, because what it immediately does

818
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 3: is make you think, oh, my goodness, well maybe this

819
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 3: launches them a little more confidence. You know, they get

820
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 3: out to the US Open, the PGA Championship.

821
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 4: The the other majors.

822
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 3: You know that the Open, you know, used to be

823
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,839
Speaker 3: the British Open, but they just called the Open Championship.

824
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 3: Like when when you have when you have a top

825
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 3: ten finish and you're sort of one of those guys

826
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 3: who's starting to get a name for himself at these majors,

827
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 3: it feels like, well, that's it, that's that's that's your

828
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 3: your on ramp to having a launch and some success.

829
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 4: And it doesn't always work out for guys like that.

830
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 3: You know, how long has it been now Ricky Fowler

831
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 3: has been you know, having these top five finishes or

832
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 3: top ten finishes.

833
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 4: He's he was destined.

834
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 3: It felt like to be the I don't want to

835
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 3: say the next tiger Woods or anything close to it,

836
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 3: but one of the next biggest golfers on tour. And

837
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,719
Speaker 3: it just it just never really came together that way.

838
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 4: Scott A.

839
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 2: Scheffler just hit it into the crowd on his second

840
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 2: shot of the second hole, and that does not sit

841
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 2: well with the patrons there. They're all comfortable in their

842
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 2: seats and everything, and all of a sudden it's on

843
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 2: right in the crowd and they got to move everybody.

844
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,919
Speaker 1: To get ready for his third shot on that par five.

845
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 2: All right, I want to talk about the passing of

846
00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 2: one of the most famous socio paths in the history

847
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:55,720
Speaker 2: of the world, OJ Simpson. This is this is something

848
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,640
Speaker 2: that's very generational for those of your generation. Anyone that's

849
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 2: under the age of forty really knows OJ Simpson as

850
00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:09,239
Speaker 2: a double murder And by the way, there are no

851
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 2: conspiracy theories in any of this.

852
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: He murdered two people that's one hundred percent.

853
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 2: And in fact, there were those that say that he

854
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 2: actually admitted to his crimes when he got arrested. He

855
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,360
Speaker 2: said he was in some kind of cocaine infused rage.

856
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,000
Speaker 2: She couldn't believe that he had done it, but he

857
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 2: did it. There's no question that he murdered two people.

858
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,719
Speaker 2: That being said for people of my generation, and I

859
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 2: was nine years old when he started his collegiate career

860
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 2: at USC and he was one of my first sports heroes.

861
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 2: My dad went to USC, so I was a Trojan

862
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 2: fan as a kid, and Oj was the biggest name

863
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 2: in the sport. And then he went to the Buffalo

864
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,879
Speaker 2: Bills where he dominated. And people have always said, how

865
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 2: is it that you can see someone in two different lights?

866
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,760
Speaker 2: And for those that remember his playing career, we're following

867
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:06,200
Speaker 2: his playing career when it was happening, I say, it's

868
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 2: quite easy. What did you think of the Pro Football

869
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame with the flag at half staff with

870
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 2: the passing of OJ Simpson, What did you make.

871
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 4: Of that look? I think that.

872
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 3: Boy, well, hey, I completely agree with what you with

873
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 3: what you just said about his guilt, I think that's obvious.

874
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 3: And also I think with a conscious that that bared

875
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 3: the weight of knowing that he got away with double murder.

876
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 3: I think many times, while skirting obvious legal ramifications, if

877
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 3: he did one hundred percent come clean, it felt like

878
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 3: many times over he tried to tell us exactly how

879
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,920
Speaker 3: he did it. Yeah, you know, there was that interview

880
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 3: you remember he sat down when he was promoting the

881
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 3: new book where they said, Okay, Ojay, why don't you

882
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 3: just pretend it's somebody else, But why don't you tell

883
00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 3: us exactly how somebody else would would have killed Nicole

884
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 3: Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. And he did, in great

885
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 3: detail describe exactly what he did. And it was gruesome

886
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 3: and it was I mean, it's still available. You can

887
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,720
Speaker 3: find it on the internet. You just research that interview

888
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 3: and you'll hear oj Now he's talking in the third person,

889
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 3: and a couple of times he gives like a sly

890
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:30,719
Speaker 3: look at the cameras to be like, of course, this

891
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 3: would be if I actually were to commit this murder,

892
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 3: how I would do it. And there were a couple

893
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,440
Speaker 3: of moments where you could see him getting lost in

894
00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 3: the story and he would shift away from the third

895
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 3: person regaling of this talent he would put himself back

896
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 3: into the first person because.

897
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:50,319
Speaker 4: He was there that night and he did those things.

898
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:55,240
Speaker 3: But okay, you put that enormous item on the shelf

899
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 3: for a second and you talk about what he meant

900
00:45:58,920 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 3: to football.

901
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:01,280
Speaker 4: I mean, OJ.

902
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 3: Simpson was, I mean is one of the greatest football

903
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,439
Speaker 3: players to ever walk planet Earth.

904
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 2: Not only one of the greatest football players, one of

905
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 2: the biggest stars.

906
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:12,920
Speaker 1: No question that the NFL.

907
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 2: He was the first African American star to go mainstream

908
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,439
Speaker 2: with national products to be promoted, you know, the Hurts

909
00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 2: rent a car. I mean we had never I mean,

910
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 2: like Joe Namath was one of those stars, but we

911
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 2: had never seen an African American athlete none well, none

912
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 2: of these, none of these will He made nobody until

913
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 2: OJ Simpson was accepted mainstream.

914
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 3: He was a brilliant athlete. He turned into a very

915
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 3: credible and talented broadcaster who turned into an unbelievable rising

916
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 3: star in movies. His role in the Naked Gun movies

917
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 3: was hysterical, and then he was asked before Arnold Schwarzenegger

918
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,800
Speaker 3: was asked to be Terminator or I guess cornered James

919
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 3: Cameron and forced him to consider him for the role O. J.

920
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 3: Simpson turned down the terminator role. Yeah, so like his

921
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,919
Speaker 3: star was on the rise. He was a Hollywood star

922
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 3: already at the time he committed these murders, and then

923
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,160
Speaker 3: the low speed chase and the White Bronco and then

924
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 3: the first time that we were ever really to take

925
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 3: a long look into a courtroom with video cameras. Judge

926
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 3: Edo allowed video cameras during the O. J. Simpson trial.

927
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 3: And I mean it was two acts. The first act

928
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,439
Speaker 3: of his life, he was a superstar athlete who turned

929
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,200
Speaker 3: into a superstar movie star. And then in the second

930
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,960
Speaker 3: act of his life, like you said, he was guilty

931
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,800
Speaker 3: of or I should say, he was acquitted of double

932
00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:01,240
Speaker 3: homicide with obvious guilt and ended up losing the civil

933
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 3: case and then ending up going to prison on attempted

934
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,360
Speaker 3: robbery charges out in Vegas.

935
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 4: And that sort of felt like in the sports world,

936
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 4: a makeup call.

937
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 3: Hey, we didn't get you on the double homicide, but

938
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 3: at least we got you on that attempted Vegas robbery.

939
00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 2: Well, again, the reason he was found not guilty. And

940
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 2: I've seen interviews with Marcia Clark afterwards. You know, I

941
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 2: obviously was doing my radio show through this entire thing.

942
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 2: In fact, the morning that they discovered the bodies, yep,

943
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,919
Speaker 2: I was working with Chet forty, who was my loose

944
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 2: cannon partner back in the day. Chedd of course, the

945
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:38,120
Speaker 2: famous director of Monday Night Football. He had directed Ojay

946
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 2: on Monday Night Football when he was briefly a part

947
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:41,759
Speaker 2: of the broadcast team there.

948
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 1: And I walked in.

949
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 2: We were doing a morning show and of course there's

950
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 2: no internet. I mean, this is nineteen ninety four, right,

951
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,960
Speaker 2: And so I walk in and he said, there have

952
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:54,719
Speaker 2: been something over the wire. He goes, did you hear

953
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 2: about Nicole Simpson? I said, no, what happened to the goal?

954
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,400
Speaker 2: And he goes, she's been murdered.

955
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:02,440
Speaker 1: I said what.

956
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 2: He goes, yeah, I mean she and some guy that

957
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 2: found their bodies. And I said, so where's Oj? And

958
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,439
Speaker 2: I said I don't know, but I mean he looks

959
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 2: at me and this is someone that you know, really

960
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,399
Speaker 2: knows OJ. And I got to know Oj because when

961
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 2: I worked for the La Raiders, he was around all

962
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 2: the time. Our marketing director was in his inner circle

963
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 2: of friends, Mike Ornstein, and then of course Marcus Allen

964
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 2: was a good friend. So we saw OJ all the time.

965
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 2: It wasn't like uncommon to see the guy and and

966
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 2: she looks at me and he says, wow, he I

967
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 2: think he did it. And my initial reaction is why why?

968
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 2: I mean, you're kiddy, I mean being Oj Simpson's like

969
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 2: the one of the greatest things you have, no asda

970
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 2: Like I remember we in nineteen ninety pat Riley walked

971
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,920
Speaker 2: away from his job as the Lakers head coach, and

972
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 2: I ended up at sort of this you know, celebration

973
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 2: of Riley as you know, this great coach of the Lakers.

974
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 2: And I was at this big party. I was actually

975
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 2: sitting at a table. This is nineteen ninety, so there'd

976
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 2: be four years before the murders with, among other people,

977
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,320
Speaker 2: Marcus Allen, and we were sitting there and OJ and

978
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 2: Nicole walk in. Now, even in a room of stars,

979
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 2: I mean all the Lakers stars are there. Everybody's there,

980
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:22,920
Speaker 2: OJ was next level, like he was next level. So

981
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:26,240
Speaker 2: he walks by, Nicole walked by, and then OJ's behind

982
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,439
Speaker 2: her and he stops because he sees Marcus and I'm

983
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 2: just sitting there and it's like a fly on the wall,

984
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 2: and he looks at Marcus.

985
00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 1: He goes the great.

986
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 2: Marcus Allen and then he just walked away. Now I

987
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 2: looked at Marcus, I said, what was that about. He goes,

988
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, the guy's hiring a kite, you know.

989
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 2: I mean, he was, he's he was associopath. He was.

990
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,360
Speaker 1: He was one of those guys. When you think about this,

991
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: he was.

992
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 2: Probably the greatest high school running back of his class.

993
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 2: And yeah, and he had to go two years of

994
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 2: j seball. No one would touch this guy. He was

995
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 2: bad news. He was like like your former teammate Aaron Hernandez.

996
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,320
Speaker 2: He was one of those guys that everyone knew was

997
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 2: a bad apple. The USC was determined to get him in.

998
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if he ever attended a class. I

999
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 2: don't even know what he did in those two years

1000
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 2: when he was at USC, other than obviously break all

1001
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 2: kinds of records as a running back. But believe me,

1002
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 2: there was always a dark side to OJ Simpson. He

1003
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 2: knew how to turn on the charm when the lights

1004
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,360
Speaker 2: were on. That he was a bad apple. He was

1005
00:51:38,840 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 2: always a bad apple. And then it exploded on that night. Yet,

1006
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 2: as I sit here all these years later, and now

1007
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 2: that he's passed away, I just found an interesting one.

1008
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 2: The heisman trust, you know, acknowledged his passing. And I'm like, really,

1009
00:51:58,120 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 2: because when he was a FI tieth anniversary at Heighso Winnard,

1010
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:05,080
Speaker 2: they made no mention of his name. The National Football Foundation,

1011
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:08,160
Speaker 2: which oversees the College Football Hall of Fame, of which

1012
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,320
Speaker 2: he's a member, has made no mention of his passing

1013
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 2: because they immediately put out any kind of acknowledgment when

1014
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 2: any member of the College Football Hall of Fame passes,

1015
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,160
Speaker 2: way they did not for Oj the Pro Football Hall.

1016
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 10: Of Fame did.

1017
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 4: I mean?

1018
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:25,239
Speaker 1: It just it's it's insanely complicated. But he was both.

1019
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 2: He was one of the greatest running backs ever to

1020
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 2: play the game of football, and he was a double murderer.

1021
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:35,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's that is the legacy of OJ Simpson.

1022
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 3: Well, listen, I think there's a lot of people who

1023
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,000
Speaker 3: they draw the line with this, like how dare anybody

1024
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 3: celebrate his greatness on the football field. Meanwhile, he was

1025
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:49,120
Speaker 3: guilty of these atrocities against two people, and it was

1026
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 3: such a famous and public trial. And like I said,

1027
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 3: he admitted guilt in the past, you know, even though

1028
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 3: he never really legally admitted that guilt. Here's the deal.

1029
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 3: There's a lot of people who can justify enjoying an R.

1030
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:06,839
Speaker 3: Kelly song even though he had a dark personal life.

1031
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,800
Speaker 3: There's a lot of people who can enjoy Michael Jackson's

1032
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 3: music even though he had a dark personal life. There

1033
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 3: are a lot of people who appreciate, you know, the

1034
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:21,279
Speaker 3: liberties that our forefathers, you know, gave us here in

1035
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,360
Speaker 3: this country, you know, with the Declaration of Independence and

1036
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,960
Speaker 3: the work that was done during the Revolutionary War. And meanwhile,

1037
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:32,360
Speaker 3: many of them made some really awful decisions at the

1038
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,719
Speaker 3: time with what was acceptable by law. You know, you

1039
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,359
Speaker 3: look at it through the modern lens and it's it's

1040
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 3: inconceivable what they were doing to human beings at that time.

1041
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 3: But I guess the point is, like, however anybody wants

1042
00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 3: to acknowledge, this is their own subjective.

1043
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:50,840
Speaker 4: Freedom.

1044
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 3: Like I don't really care that the Pro Football Hall

1045
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,040
Speaker 3: of Fame celebrated him in any way, you know, lowering

1046
00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 3: a flag or whatever they did to acknowledge Ojason since passing,

1047
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,239
Speaker 3: because that's their own business. And a lot of people

1048
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,760
Speaker 3: make those decisions, you know there. Like I said, the music,

1049
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,760
Speaker 3: you listen to, the art, you enjoyed them, the movies

1050
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 3: you watched. How many movie stars in the past or

1051
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,440
Speaker 3: present have been accused of or guilt found guilty of

1052
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 3: awful things, you still go and watch their movies, you know.

1053
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 3: So I'm just saying, like, I'm not gonna sit here

1054
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 3: with like and say one hundred percent of the time

1055
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,840
Speaker 3: I draw the line, and I know where my line is.

1056
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 3: And but in my opinion, I'm not going to sit

1057
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:34,840
Speaker 3: here and celebrate OJ Simpson because I think he he

1058
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:37,759
Speaker 3: was a murderer, you know. So, I you know, it's

1059
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 3: it's a little bit of one of those things where

1060
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 3: it's like, as great as he was at football, I mean,

1061
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 3: he also was guilty of something horrible.

1062
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 4: And uh and you know, I can I can do both.

1063
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:50,799
Speaker 3: I can live in both worlds where I can say

1064
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,080
Speaker 3: I can acknowledge that he was inarguably one of the

1065
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:58,319
Speaker 3: most talented athletes in the history of the sport. I mean,

1066
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 3: and that's not that's not o rating his significance and

1067
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:06,279
Speaker 3: importance to the world of football, both collegiately and professionally.

1068
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 3: But then also say he was also guilty of something

1069
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,840
Speaker 3: horrific and should have been punished more for those crimes.

1070
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's complicated, but it is a generational thing. And again,

1071
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,880
Speaker 2: just a bottom line. He was found not guilty for

1072
00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:24,360
Speaker 2: one reason. It was the fallout from the Rodney King situation,

1073
00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 2: which had just happened a couple of years before.

1074
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 1: And I heard Marcia Clark.

1075
00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 2: You know, they had all this DNA at evidence, they

1076
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:35,719
Speaker 2: had everything everyone, and literally I'm on the air when

1077
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 2: they break for the announcement of the verdict. Remember this

1078
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,839
Speaker 2: was an eight to nine months trial and the jury

1079
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,080
Speaker 2: only convened for four hours, and we.

1080
00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:47,399
Speaker 1: Would thought, wow, that was quick.

1081
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:51,280
Speaker 2: I mean, it's such an overwhelming evidence, DNA evidence, everything

1082
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:54,200
Speaker 2: else that he's guilty. While they didn't take them long,

1083
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 2: and when they said not guilty, the one person that

1084
00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 2: was not surprised was Martia Clark. She said when she

1085
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,800
Speaker 2: looked at that jury, she knew almost from the get go,

1086
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,439
Speaker 2: he's gonna walk. No matter what we say, no matter

1087
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 2: how much evidence we present, he is going to walk.

1088
00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,360
Speaker 2: So it's still it was the trial of this century

1089
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 2: and it was unbelievable. But that is the legacy complicated,

1090
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 2: to say the least of one. O'renthal James Simpson, all right,

1091
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 2: speaking of legacies, what's the legacy of Shoheo Tani. Some

1092
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,040
Speaker 2: latest developments in his case, and still a lot of

1093
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 2: unanswered questions.

1094
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: Will break it down.

1095
00:56:32,440 --> 00:56:36,560
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvin and Rich Armberger

1096
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:39,839
Speaker 2: Here Fox Sports Sunday. We are live from the Tairaq

1097
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:45,800
Speaker 2: dot Com studios. Scottie Scheffler just birdied the third hole. However,

1098
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 2: on the par three fourth hole, his tea shots sailed

1099
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 2: the green. Right now, Marikawa and Homa are two shots back. Deshambo,

1100
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 2: who had two bogies early, now back to back birdies

1101
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 2: to get him back to under parts. So we have

1102
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:03,600
Speaker 2: a long way to go on this final day of

1103
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:08,560
Speaker 2: the Masters Show. Hey Otani, rich I guess we at

1104
00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:12,880
Speaker 2: least now can acknowledge based on these text messages between

1105
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 2: his interpreter and his bookie that indeed this guy was

1106
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,840
Speaker 2: operating quite a scam to say the least. Uh And

1107
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,880
Speaker 2: there doesn't seem to be any real mention of Otani,

1108
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 2: so at least in terms of Otani be involved in

1109
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 2: the gambling aspect, he seems to be clear of that.

1110
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 2: But there's still a lot of unanswered questions. I'm trying

1111
00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 2: to figure this all out. Maybe you have the answer here, Okay,

1112
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 2: all right, So here's a guy that you've been with

1113
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 2: for six plus years, who is essentially attached to your hip.

1114
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:47,440
Speaker 2: I mean that's I mean the description from people that

1115
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 2: covered the Angels in Otani six years with the Angels

1116
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 2: would tell you that this interpreter guy was with him,

1117
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,439
Speaker 2: side by side the entire time.

1118
00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 1: So what we now know a little more.

1119
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 2: Detail about the extent of this gambling, and by the way,

1120
00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 2: he only met this bookie supposedly in twenty twenty one.

1121
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 2: They're only talking about like a three year span where

1122
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:14,320
Speaker 2: hundreds of millions of dollars were gambled, hundreds of millions,

1123
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:20,000
Speaker 2: and that he stole sixteen million dollars from Otani in

1124
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 2: an effort to cover his gambling debts. So here are

1125
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:29,360
Speaker 2: two questions I have, even if Otani wasn't directly involved

1126
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 2: in the gambling. Question Number one is this, you're side

1127
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 2: by side with this guy twenty four to seven. Seemingly,

1128
00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:42,280
Speaker 2: and according now to these official records, he was placing

1129
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 2: as many as twenty five bets daily every day, seven

1130
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:49,440
Speaker 2: days a week, from ten dollars to up to one

1131
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:52,960
Speaker 2: hundred and sixty thousand dollars on a bet. And you

1132
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 2: have no clue this is going on with someone that

1133
00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:58,560
Speaker 2: you were literally attached to by the hip and then

1134
00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 2: the other part. And I guess this would be a

1135
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:03,480
Speaker 2: bigger question from his wife's standpoint now that he's newly married.

1136
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:07,720
Speaker 2: This guy stole sixteen million dollars out of your bank

1137
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:11,400
Speaker 2: account and you're completely unaware of this. How did he

1138
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:15,360
Speaker 2: have this kind of access to your money? And because

1139
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 2: the reason I would ask that is is that I'm

1140
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 2: sure there are a lot of people scammers out there

1141
00:59:21,000 --> 00:59:23,880
Speaker 2: that are a whole lot smarter than his interpret saying wow,

1142
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:26,440
Speaker 2: I mean, if shoey Otani has such little regard to

1143
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:30,080
Speaker 2: his own personal finances, maybe we could take advantage as well.

1144
00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:30,880
Speaker 1: He doesn't seem to.

1145
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 2: Be really paying any attention to all of it. So

1146
00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, in some respects, it's it's not gonna

1147
00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 2: hurt Otani. In terms of his playing career. He's been

1148
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:42,960
Speaker 2: hitting the ball great. He seems to be unaffected. But man,

1149
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 2: oh man, could could you really be that blind to

1150
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 2: something that's happening to you for years?

1151
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,160
Speaker 1: I just it blows my mind.

1152
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:57,720
Speaker 3: Well, look, I agree, it does blow my mind to

1153
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:01,920
Speaker 3: that that Otani he had no idea that he was

1154
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 3: being I mean, essentially, essentially, he had the majority of

1155
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,200
Speaker 3: the money that he earned over the course of his

1156
01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:15,000
Speaker 3: playing career contract money. I'm again I'm excluding endorsement money

1157
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 3: because sho heeo Tani, I mean, there are some conservative

1158
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:22,080
Speaker 3: figures that say that he he's been earning at a

1159
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:26,680
Speaker 3: forty million dollars a year clip through endorsements basically since

1160
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:29,760
Speaker 3: he's been in Major League Baseball. So that's a significant

1161
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:33,360
Speaker 3: chunk of change, even after taxes in this country, and

1162
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 3: I'm sure overseas as well. And this of course is

1163
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 3: also I'm not commenting on what he made when he

1164
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:45,240
Speaker 3: was a member of the professional ranks in Japanese baseball,

1165
01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,400
Speaker 3: but since he's been to the United States, he's he's

1166
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:54,360
Speaker 3: grossed about forty four million dollars. So if Mitsahara, if

1167
01:00:54,440 --> 01:00:58,800
Speaker 3: he gambled away sixteen million dollars worth of sho Heo

1168
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 3: Tani's money, that means virtually all of the money that

1169
01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:08,080
Speaker 3: shoe Heotani earned via contracts through the through Major League Baseball,

1170
01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:12,400
Speaker 3: his contracts with the Angels is gone, all of it.

1171
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 3: So I don't know how he was able to do it,

1172
01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:19,400
Speaker 3: but there Look, I've and I've been bringing this up

1173
01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 3: a lot around this topic, but my grandfather when I

1174
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 3: was a kid had a saying where, look, you can

1175
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,400
Speaker 3: fool some of the people all the time, you can

1176
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:32,000
Speaker 3: fool everybody for some of the time, but you can't

1177
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:35,560
Speaker 3: fool everybody all the time. And what this was was

1178
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 3: was Ibe Mitsuhara fooling everybody for some of the time.

1179
01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 3: He had everybody fooled that his resume was good, that he.

1180
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:48,760
Speaker 11: Worked with other professional baseball players, that he was on

1181
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:50,720
Speaker 11: the up and up the whole way, And he fooled

1182
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 11: show Heotani for the three years that apparently he was

1183
01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:54,880
Speaker 11: gambling away his money.

1184
01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 3: But eventually you get caught, like, you cannot fool everyone

1185
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:03,480
Speaker 3: all the time. So am I willing to believe that

1186
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:07,400
Speaker 3: sho he Otani is naive enough being a new person

1187
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:12,400
Speaker 3: in a new country, trusting this guy like one hundred

1188
01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 3: percent with his life and all of his dealings, that

1189
01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:17,720
Speaker 3: maybe he was able to sneak off with millions and

1190
01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:21,200
Speaker 3: millions and millions of dollars without show Hey knowing up

1191
01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 3: until this expose came out. I guess, I guess. But

1192
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 3: at the same token, I am still there is still

1193
01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 3: in the far reaches of my creative conscious, there's still

1194
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 3: that feeling of like, yeah, but this seems this seems

1195
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 3: unfathomably naive, Like this seems hard to believe that show

1196
01:02:41,920 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 3: Hey Otani had no idea that this was going on

1197
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,040
Speaker 3: the entire time. Like that is a lot of money.

1198
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 3: That is an astounding amount of money to have disappear

1199
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 3: from your account and have no awareness of it whatsoever.

1200
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,120
Speaker 2: John Paul Morosi will join us in the next hour.

1201
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,800
Speaker 2: I definitely want to get his re on that. Right now,

1202
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 2: Let's find out what's trending.

1203
01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 4: Now.

1204
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,080
Speaker 1: If you're going to be critical of show Hey.

1205
01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 2: O'twani, one person that is not going to take it,

1206
01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,600
Speaker 2: well is Monty belagyas well.

1207
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 1: Duh yeah, well dub.

1208
01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:15,400
Speaker 7: But right now, you guys, my brain hurts trying to

1209
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:16,840
Speaker 7: figure out this playoff scenario.

1210
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,320
Speaker 9: So let me tell you what I have figured out

1211
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:19,760
Speaker 9: so far.

1212
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:22,040
Speaker 1: Well, theaster coffin seems to be set.

1213
01:03:22,120 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 7: Now, well, there's a game in ot so not yet,

1214
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:28,760
Speaker 7: but some stuff is set, yes, all right. The seventy

1215
01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,680
Speaker 7: six ers they beat the Nets one oh seven to

1216
01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,360
Speaker 7: eighty six. The Heat defeated the Raptors one eighteen to

1217
01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:36,880
Speaker 7: one oh three. But because Indiana, Philly and Orlando one

1218
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,840
Speaker 7: Orlando beat the Bucks, that means that the Heat are

1219
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 7: going to travel to Philadelphia in a seven eight playing

1220
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,680
Speaker 7: game on Wednesday. What does this mean, Jimmy Butler once

1221
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 7: again against Philadelphia.

1222
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:48,920
Speaker 1: Yes, we love that.

1223
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 9: We love that, so that's for sure.

1224
01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 7: The Pacers, they crushed the Hawks one fifty seven, one fifteen.

1225
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,040
Speaker 7: Indiana will be the sixth seed in the East. The

1226
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:01,840
Speaker 7: Hornets defeated the Calves one to ten. Cleveland had a

1227
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,680
Speaker 7: chance to secure the second seed, they now fall to

1228
01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:08,560
Speaker 7: the fourth seed. They sat Donovan Mitchell, they sat Darius Garland,

1229
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:10,480
Speaker 7: they were in the lead in the fourth quarter and

1230
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 7: lost to the Hornets. So now they are the fourth seed.

1231
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,880
Speaker 7: That's what's happening there. The Celtics, they beat the Wizards,

1232
01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:18,640
Speaker 7: doesn't matter when they're two to one twenty two.

1233
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 9: The Bulls and the Knicks, they are currently in overtime

1234
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:22,360
Speaker 9: in New York.

1235
01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,680
Speaker 7: Chicago is currently up one twelve to one oh nine,

1236
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,920
Speaker 7: about four less than four minutes to go in the

1237
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:31,320
Speaker 7: overtime portion of this game.

1238
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:32,680
Speaker 9: So that's what I've got so far.

1239
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,640
Speaker 7: Now on the Western Conference, I got at least some

1240
01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:41,280
Speaker 7: details With the Suns. It's still super complicated, and I

1241
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:43,920
Speaker 7: got this from a beat writer for the Suns. So

1242
01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 7: the Sons are taking on the Timberwolves. The Lakers are

1243
01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:49,680
Speaker 7: taking on the Pelicans, the Jazz and Warriors, Blazers, and Kings.

1244
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:51,880
Speaker 7: If the Suns win and the Pelicans lose, the Sons

1245
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:54,000
Speaker 7: are the sixth seed. If the Suns lose Pelicans lose,

1246
01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:56,360
Speaker 7: the Suns are the seventh seed. Lakers are the eighth seed.

1247
01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:59,240
Speaker 9: If the Pelicans win, Kings win, Sons are the seventh seed.

1248
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 9: Kings are the eighth seed.

1249
01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:04,120
Speaker 7: The Pelicans win, Kings lose, Warriors win, Sons are the

1250
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:04,880
Speaker 7: seventh seed.

1251
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:06,479
Speaker 9: Warriors are the eighth seed.

1252
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:10,600
Speaker 7: Pelicans win, Kings lose, Warriors lose, Sons are the seventh seed.

1253
01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:12,960
Speaker 9: Lakers are the eight seed. This is complicated.

1254
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:16,160
Speaker 12: I have no idea where I am at the fact

1255
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,800
Speaker 12: that guys, we're gonna have See basically, it was an

1256
01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 12: easy setup today because we've got the Eastern Conference games

1257
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 12: played first, correct, and then we'll have the Eastern once.

1258
01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:29,160
Speaker 1: That Nick's Bulls game is over, then everything will be

1259
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,600
Speaker 1: done in the East. Then we turn to the West.

1260
01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's just it's too much, but it's fun. It's fun, sure,

1261
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:38,440
Speaker 9: all right. A little check in on baseball. We already

1262
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,920
Speaker 9: had a Grand Slam by Jack.

1263
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 7: I'm gonna maybe maybe I'm gonna mispronounce his name, Jack

1264
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 7: so Winski, Maybe not. He plays for the Pirates. Already

1265
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:49,560
Speaker 7: had a Grand Slam. They're beating the Philly six to two.

1266
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:51,560
Speaker 7: It's the bottom of the seventh inning. The Birds are

1267
01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 7: up on the Oriels four to three. Bottom of the seventh.

1268
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:55,600
Speaker 7: The Red Sox time now taking the lead over the

1269
01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 7: Angels five to bottom of the six, Blue Jays blanking

1270
01:05:58,680 --> 01:06:01,680
Speaker 7: the Rockies four zero, top but the seventh. The Marlins

1271
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:04,520
Speaker 7: have taken the lead over the Braves. Seven six is

1272
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:07,160
Speaker 7: the score. Bottom of the seventh, Twins blanking the Tigers

1273
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 7: three zero, top of the eighth. It's a tie game

1274
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 7: now in Cleveland between the Yankees and the Guardians. They're

1275
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 7: tied at four piece. Top of the seventh, all raised

1276
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 7: against the Giants seven to one, top of the sixth,

1277
01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:19,360
Speaker 7: Reds up on the White Sox six two bottom of

1278
01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:21,840
Speaker 7: the fifth, and the Astros out of another run. Jose

1279
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 7: Altova actually with the second homer.

1280
01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:27,080
Speaker 9: Already for the game. They're beating the Rangers five to two, bottom.

1281
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 7: Of the fifth and at the Masters, You guys, so

1282
01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 7: much going on today?

1283
01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:32,560
Speaker 9: How are we keeping up?

1284
01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:36,360
Speaker 7: Scottie Scheffler still in the lead, seven under par. Overall,

1285
01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:39,840
Speaker 7: he is even for the day through four holes. Max Homa,

1286
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 7: Colin Morikawa one shot back.

1287
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 1: Still okay, all right, you get it all.

1288
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 6: Now, what did I say about the Suns?

1289
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,920
Speaker 1: You were you were all kay, you were okay on

1290
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:52,360
Speaker 1: the east.

1291
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 10: But when you started going to the west, I mean,

1292
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:58,000
Speaker 10: I hold on, sorry, Montie, I was distracted doing some

1293
01:06:58,160 --> 01:06:59,720
Speaker 10: work in the back. Can you just repeat everything?

1294
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 6: It probably already changed, Chris from when I said it.

1295
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 10: Mercury just went into retrograde everything.

1296
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:13,960
Speaker 2: For b asroid gonna hit brain as a little scrambled.

1297
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:17,480
Speaker 2: We're gonna let you rest your blame for the next update. Okay,

1298
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:20,440
Speaker 2: so we'll explain more Monsey great stuff as always.

1299
01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 1: All right, here's what we know right now.

1300
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 2: As far as the playing round on the East, let's

1301
01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:26,120
Speaker 2: just start with the playing round.

1302
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 1: Okay.

1303
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 2: That's the first thing is the playing round. The heat

1304
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:32,560
Speaker 2: will be in Philadelphia and the Hawks will be at

1305
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,400
Speaker 2: the Bulls. So those are the play in games.

1306
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:35,800
Speaker 1: First.

1307
01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:38,280
Speaker 2: I remember the way this works. Seven plays eight plate,

1308
01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:40,960
Speaker 2: nine places ten. The loser of the nine to ten

1309
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:44,960
Speaker 2: game is out done finished. The winner of the nine

1310
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 2: to ten game will then play the loser of the

1311
01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:51,760
Speaker 2: seven eight game. So again it's Miami at Philadelphia. That's

1312
01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:55,240
Speaker 2: the seven eight matchup. It's the Hawks at the Bulls

1313
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:57,440
Speaker 2: in the nine to ten matchup. So that is now

1314
01:07:57,680 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 2: set in the East.

1315
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:00,320
Speaker 10: Know that.

1316
01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:03,600
Speaker 1: Do we know on a tie break between the Bucks

1317
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 1: and the Knicks?

1318
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:05,120
Speaker 4: Do we have that?

1319
01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:08,000
Speaker 2: Because right now the Knicks are playing the Bulls. If

1320
01:08:08,040 --> 01:08:11,080
Speaker 2: the Knicks lose that game, If they win, they're definitely

1321
01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:14,080
Speaker 2: the two seed. If they lose, they would be tied

1322
01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 2: with Milwaukee.

1323
01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:18,960
Speaker 7: Who has the tiebreak, Milwaukee, So the Knicks have to

1324
01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:21,080
Speaker 7: win if the Knicks win, or the second seed.

1325
01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 9: If they lose, it goes to Milwaukee.

1326
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:24,400
Speaker 2: Okay, so then they would be the third seed and

1327
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 2: the Bucks would be the two seed. That's where we

1328
01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 2: are in these as far as the West, I mean again, quit,

1329
01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, yeah, don't even Let's let's just hold

1330
01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 2: off on that. By the way, Scotti Scheffler did bogie

1331
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:40,920
Speaker 2: that fourth hole after sailing his tee shots, so again

1332
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:43,120
Speaker 2: he just has the one shot.

1333
01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:44,679
Speaker 1: Lead going there.

1334
01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:47,120
Speaker 2: I want to talk a little bit here about the

1335
01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:52,400
Speaker 2: Lakers situation because if you had said before the season,

1336
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 2: Rich that Lebron James would play seventy one games and

1337
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:05,320
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis would play seventy six games, and both at

1338
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:08,720
Speaker 2: all star levels, you know, putting up big numbers, all

1339
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:13,439
Speaker 2: NBA type numbers. And again, if the Lakers lose at

1340
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 2: New Orleans today and the Warriors and the Kings both

1341
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:20,480
Speaker 2: win at home against teams that are out of the playoffs,

1342
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:22,559
Speaker 2: the Lakers would be a ten seed.

1343
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:23,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1344
01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:28,200
Speaker 2: Ten yeah, with seventy one games. Basically a healthy Lebron

1345
01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:30,800
Speaker 2: and ad the entire year. They just took off a

1346
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:32,800
Speaker 2: few games on back to backs, that's it. They would

1347
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:35,880
Speaker 2: Neither one of them had any serious injury the entire year.

1348
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:40,799
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't how how do you retain Darvin

1349
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:45,439
Speaker 2: Ham his insistence on playing Torrian Prince for the first

1350
01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:48,120
Speaker 2: half of the season. I was like, why is Hatchimura

1351
01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:51,240
Speaker 2: on the I want to get Bowen to this conversation.

1352
01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:53,680
Speaker 2: For second, here are steam producer, because he's a big

1353
01:09:53,720 --> 01:09:58,360
Speaker 2: time Laker fan. I mean, look, Hatchimura was sitting on

1354
01:09:58,439 --> 01:09:59,280
Speaker 2: the bench early on.

1355
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:01,599
Speaker 1: DLO.

1356
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:04,760
Speaker 2: Wasn't getting the minutes that you had your lineup at

1357
01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:08,280
Speaker 2: the end of last year with Austin Reeves and Hachimura

1358
01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:11,160
Speaker 2: and d Loo and Lebron and Ad and yet they

1359
01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:13,280
Speaker 2: start the season with all those guys on the roster

1360
01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,600
Speaker 2: and we're looking at what toryon Prince cam Reddish that

1361
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:17,320
Speaker 2: was going on.

1362
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:21,880
Speaker 13: That'll be the question for the ages after the post mortem,

1363
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:24,040
Speaker 13: you know, when the post warning comes after the season,

1364
01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,280
Speaker 13: that'll be fresh on everybody's minds because that is ridiculous.

1365
01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,840
Speaker 13: There's that they went like five and thirteen after the

1366
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 13: nd season tournament and that really doomed.

1367
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 2: Remember that they win that nd season tournament. They were

1368
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 2: they remember this rich we they rather like five or

1369
01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 2: six wins in a row. They were rolling along and

1370
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:42,880
Speaker 2: then they just went into a nosedive with Tory and

1371
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:46,160
Speaker 2: Prince and cam Reddish getting an unbelievable amount of minutes.

1372
01:10:46,479 --> 01:10:48,719
Speaker 1: I don't know how Darvin Ham survives the season.

1373
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 13: I don't think he will.

1374
01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:51,200
Speaker 4: No, I don't think he will either.

1375
01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:54,880
Speaker 3: I also think that anybody who looks at Darvin Ham

1376
01:10:55,080 --> 01:11:00,519
Speaker 3: as the biggest problem here is probably mistaken because let's

1377
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 3: be honest with each other. Lebron James if he wants,

1378
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:07,760
Speaker 3: if he wants anything done differently with the Lakers, it's

1379
01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:10,920
Speaker 3: up to him, you know. So I realize that Darvin

1380
01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:13,679
Speaker 3: Ham is the head coach, and I realize that essentially

1381
01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:16,640
Speaker 3: he is, you know, the final stamp of approval on

1382
01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:20,360
Speaker 3: any roster decisions or any game time decisions. But let's

1383
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,280
Speaker 3: be very honest, if Lebron James wants to veto any

1384
01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:27,400
Speaker 3: of those decisions, he can, and he's done it in

1385
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:32,440
Speaker 3: the past. So I have a hard time suspending disbelief

1386
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,960
Speaker 3: and pretending that Darvin ham is the reason why the

1387
01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:39,200
Speaker 3: Lakers win or lose any games or any titles.

1388
01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 4: For that matter.

1389
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:42,160
Speaker 1: Can I jump jump in, like, are you going with this?

1390
01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:45,920
Speaker 3: Do we think that Frank Vogel won the Lakers their

1391
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:49,280
Speaker 3: most recent championship? Are we giving him the flowers for

1392
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:50,160
Speaker 3: that championship?

1393
01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:51,920
Speaker 13: It is kind of weird, though, because there have been

1394
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 13: instances where the Lakers have very clearly not listened to

1395
01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:57,360
Speaker 13: Lebron and for the worst, because I mean, at the

1396
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:58,720
Speaker 13: start of it, if they had listened to him, like

1397
01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:00,920
Speaker 13: Tyler would be the coach right now and we wouldn't

1398
01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:01,400
Speaker 13: be talking about that.

1399
01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:03,960
Speaker 2: Well, if you don't make the Anthony Davis trade, think

1400
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:08,400
Speaker 2: about the roster you have right now. Right here's the fact,

1401
01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:12,960
Speaker 2: regardless of what happens today, Lebron six years with the Lakers,

1402
01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:16,519
Speaker 2: they've either entirely missed the postseason or been in the

1403
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:19,719
Speaker 2: play and Round all but one year out of six,

1404
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:22,120
Speaker 2: and that was, of course, the year they won the

1405
01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:25,040
Speaker 2: championship and the bubble down in Florida. I guess my

1406
01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 2: question would be this, I mean, if they end up

1407
01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:30,400
Speaker 2: like if they end up losing today and then get

1408
01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,760
Speaker 2: them eliminated in the nine to ten game with a

1409
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 2: road loss against the Warriors or Sacramento, two teams by

1410
01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:39,800
Speaker 2: the way that owned the Lakers this year for the

1411
01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:42,800
Speaker 2: most part, I.

1412
01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:44,880
Speaker 1: Mean, forget the Darvin Ham situation.

1413
01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:50,000
Speaker 2: Right now, Lebron James this contract, he has a player

1414
01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 2: option this year. It's his decision whether or not to

1415
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:57,320
Speaker 2: remain with the Lakers next season. Do you really blow

1416
01:12:57,400 --> 01:12:59,720
Speaker 2: this whole thing up if you can, well, well, here,

1417
01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:01,679
Speaker 2: I mean you say goodbye Lebron.

1418
01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:02,800
Speaker 4: But that's my point.

1419
01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:06,280
Speaker 3: That's my point, Like for anybody who's sitting here and

1420
01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:09,960
Speaker 3: like legitimately defending that it Darvin Ham's.

1421
01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:13,720
Speaker 4: The problem here. That's like that you just said it.

1422
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:18,360
Speaker 3: Like there's the Lakers are making so much money having

1423
01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,599
Speaker 3: Lebron James be a part of their Franchiseely the Lakers

1424
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:25,280
Speaker 3: prior to Lebron getting there. Their their hope to save

1425
01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 3: the franchise was Lonzo Ball. Okay, yeah, after the retirement

1426
01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 3: of Kobe, there was that era. They had the second

1427
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:33,960
Speaker 3: pick in the draft.

1428
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,400
Speaker 2: You know, they took d lo they you know, remember

1429
01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,519
Speaker 2: they had brandon Ingram, they had obviously Ball.

1430
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:42,040
Speaker 1: I mean, they were taking all these young guys. It

1431
01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:43,080
Speaker 1: wasn't moving the deal.

1432
01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:45,280
Speaker 2: I get the idea of having to have a star,

1433
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:48,720
Speaker 2: especially with the Laker organization, but you're not winning with it.

1434
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:50,960
Speaker 4: Look look yeah, but no. But see that's the thing.

1435
01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:51,719
Speaker 4: They are winning.

1436
01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:54,360
Speaker 3: They are on top because we're talking about the Lakers,

1437
01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:56,559
Speaker 3: and we wouldn't be talking about the Lakers right now

1438
01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:59,479
Speaker 3: if it weren't for Lebron James. And that's the truth,

1439
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,920
Speaker 3: because the Lakers were desperate for their next star. And

1440
01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:05,439
Speaker 3: that's the reality of the Los Angeles Lakers. And they've

1441
01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:09,200
Speaker 3: done a fantastic job of bridging eras over the years.

1442
01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:12,360
Speaker 3: You know, when you they were winning with Magic, they

1443
01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 3: went they won with Kobe, they won with with Kobe

1444
01:14:15,520 --> 01:14:18,599
Speaker 3: and Shaq. They they're winning with Lebron. And whether you're

1445
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:22,439
Speaker 3: winning actually winning championships or you're just winning in the ratings,

1446
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:27,120
Speaker 3: fight for you know, interest in your franchise, Like that's

1447
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,080
Speaker 3: that's still winning. You're still selling those tickets.

1448
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:32,680
Speaker 2: That's a hard sell. If you're a diehard Laker fan,

1449
01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:36,000
Speaker 2: you're still winning. I mean, there is a standard for you.

1450
01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:36,560
Speaker 5: I get it.

1451
01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:39,200
Speaker 1: Teams like the Celtics and Lakers that have dominated the

1452
01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:39,840
Speaker 1: history of the year.

1453
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:42,760
Speaker 3: They're talking about fanzell, I'm talking about the organization. Well,

1454
01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:45,000
Speaker 3: you're asking two different questions, and I'm.

1455
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:45,479
Speaker 4: Trying to keep.

1456
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:48,160
Speaker 1: The Lakers forever.

1457
01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:51,560
Speaker 3: And this is the reality of the situation from the

1458
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,320
Speaker 3: franchise standpoint. This has nothing to do with the fan.

1459
01:14:54,479 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 3: The franchise standpoint is the fans are showing up, they're

1460
01:14:57,320 --> 01:15:00,439
Speaker 3: buying tickets, they're reloading season tickets. Everybod but he wants

1461
01:15:00,439 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 3: to see Lebron in LA. Yeah, and that's a great business.

1462
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:05,640
Speaker 2: It's just a disgrace it that you think this is

1463
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:07,920
Speaker 2: good enough, if you're not a Laker fan, if you

1464
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:09,960
Speaker 2: think this is good enough, Okay.

1465
01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 3: I'm telling you right now, then you just called Genie

1466
01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:15,120
Speaker 3: bus not a Laker fan because she thinks this isn't.

1467
01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:15,960
Speaker 1: Understand why Genie's doing it.

1468
01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:19,000
Speaker 10: Mostly, I think most Lakers fans would actually agree with

1469
01:15:19,120 --> 01:15:22,720
Speaker 10: Rich there. Yeah, well really, well they're not really they're

1470
01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:25,320
Speaker 10: not fans of Genie Bus. Well, they're not fans of

1471
01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:26,760
Speaker 10: Genie bus right at all.

1472
01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:29,559
Speaker 3: Well, see, and this is my point is you you've

1473
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,840
Speaker 3: got to understand that, yes, they're looking to win championships,

1474
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 3: and they're obviously looking to win a lot of basketball games,

1475
01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:38,280
Speaker 3: but you know what they're looking for more is money. Yeah,

1476
01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 3: and Lebron James prints money for this franchise. So anybody

1477
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:45,479
Speaker 3: who's blaming Darvin Ham acting as if he has any

1478
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:48,519
Speaker 3: control over this roster, the game time that players receive

1479
01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:53,240
Speaker 3: on this roster, you are, i mean, completely missing the

1480
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:56,639
Speaker 3: whole thing. This is Lebron's team. He's got a player option.

1481
01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,280
Speaker 3: He can lord that over them anytime he wants the

1482
01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:02,160
Speaker 3: decision made. So any of the by the way, any

1483
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:04,519
Speaker 3: of the praise you want to give the Lakers directed

1484
01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:07,920
Speaker 3: toward Lebron, any of the blame though, also directed toward Lebron.

1485
01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:10,280
Speaker 2: All right, last matchup in the Eastern Conference, Knicks have

1486
01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 2: a one point lead over the Bulls fourteen seconds ago,

1487
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:15,920
Speaker 2: and again a Knicks win, they're the two seed. A

1488
01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:18,479
Speaker 2: Knicks loss, they will be the three seed. The Bucks

1489
01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:19,400
Speaker 2: will be the two seed.

1490
01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:22,840
Speaker 1: We roll off with much more to this incredible busy

1491
01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:23,840
Speaker 1: Sunday here.

1492
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:27,280
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvey, Rich Arnberger here

1493
01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:32,120
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday. So the Laker Pelican game is underway

1494
01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 2: and the Lakers are off to a hot start here Rich.

1495
01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:35,400
Speaker 1: To start this game.

1496
01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:39,080
Speaker 2: They lead eleven to four, and again, this is a

1497
01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:45,640
Speaker 2: huge game for both of these teams. Pelicans win secures

1498
01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:48,800
Speaker 2: the sixth spot and they avoid the playing round. But

1499
01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:53,400
Speaker 2: if the Pelicans lose and Phoenix wins, then the Pelicans

1500
01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:57,200
Speaker 2: would have a rematch against the Lakers in the seven

1501
01:16:57,240 --> 01:16:59,960
Speaker 2: to eight matchup. That game would be in New Orleans,

1502
01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,280
Speaker 2: and so the Lakers, obviously, if they win, would avoid

1503
01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 2: the nine to ten game, which would then be Sacramento

1504
01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:09,479
Speaker 2: and Golden State, regardless of their games later on today.

1505
01:17:09,520 --> 01:17:12,720
Speaker 2: So there's a huge match up here between the Pelicans

1506
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 2: and the Lakers. And right now the Lakers seemingly are

1507
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:19,280
Speaker 2: in control, playing their a game, and Austin Reeves just

1508
01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:21,200
Speaker 2: missed a three that would have been big, all right,

1509
01:17:21,240 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 2: So we got that going on. Of course, we have

1510
01:17:23,200 --> 01:17:27,800
Speaker 2: this masters going on right now. Let me ask you this,

1511
01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:29,960
Speaker 2: I think quick question here. We don't have a lot

1512
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:32,360
Speaker 2: of time before the top of the hour, we're talking

1513
01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 2: about this yesterday, tradition. I'm an old school guy, rich

1514
01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:39,240
Speaker 2: and I don't know if you know this. I'm sort

1515
01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:40,599
Speaker 2: of into the history of sports.

1516
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:42,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's actually ought to hear that from you.

1517
01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:45,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know very much. So I just want to

1518
01:17:45,160 --> 01:17:45,360
Speaker 1: hear you.

1519
01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:48,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just want to get Yeah, most stats a

1520
01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:51,679
Speaker 2: big part of it, the only part of it anyway.

1521
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:56,479
Speaker 2: But I just wonder when we talk about tradition, because

1522
01:17:57,360 --> 01:18:01,080
Speaker 2: we've been we can argue about the Masters, and it's

1523
01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:04,439
Speaker 2: you know, with Tiger no longer a factor, you know,

1524
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:08,599
Speaker 2: just how big is the Masters? And every golfer, any golfer,

1525
01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:12,200
Speaker 2: any golfer, will tell you the reason the Masters is

1526
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:15,600
Speaker 2: the tournament that it is and has the prestige that

1527
01:18:15,760 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 2: it has, is that it has the tradition. You can

1528
01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 2: feel it the second you walk on the grounds. And

1529
01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:24,439
Speaker 2: this could be you know, if you're a seventy year

1530
01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:27,000
Speaker 2: old golfer, a twenty year it doesn't matter. It's all

1531
01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:30,080
Speaker 2: of It's literally golf's nirvana. But let me ask you

1532
01:18:30,200 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 2: this from the perspective of today's athlete. Does tradition matter?

1533
01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:42,479
Speaker 2: Let me just end the question, right, now, does tradition matter.

1534
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:45,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, my answer is simple, it absolutely does. I think

1535
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:50,680
Speaker 3: that there's a lot of traditions that have recently been

1536
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:54,360
Speaker 3: turned upside down. I mean, just look at college sports

1537
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:57,880
Speaker 3: in general, but especially college football and basketball with name,

1538
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,960
Speaker 3: image and likeness and some of what's going on, and

1539
01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:03,559
Speaker 3: you can you can see some of that, but it does.

1540
01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:08,720
Speaker 3: You know, super Bowl victories and championships, those are traditionally

1541
01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:09,519
Speaker 3: important things.

1542
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:10,719
Speaker 4: That's not going anywhere.

1543
01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:14,160
Speaker 3: The majors in golf, those are traditionally important things. So

1544
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:17,080
Speaker 3: even though there's a new league called Live Golf, all

1545
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:20,920
Speaker 3: of those lift golfers still want a green jacket. So yeah,

1546
01:19:21,120 --> 01:19:25,200
Speaker 3: tradition for any of the modern athletes, not all traditions,

1547
01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:28,000
Speaker 3: but many of them still very much don't matter.

1548
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:32,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I hope so because there is something.

1549
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:36,960
Speaker 2: I mean, sports is still a generational pass down from

1550
01:19:37,040 --> 01:19:40,479
Speaker 2: generation to generation, and I don't think that ever changes

1551
01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:44,640
Speaker 2: some of the traditions. I actually agree with people and

1552
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 2: say some traditions need to be changed. New traditions are

1553
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:48,280
Speaker 2: be informed.

1554
01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:48,720
Speaker 1: All right.

1555

1568
01:20:26,040 --> 01:20:28,519
Speaker 1: I'm just sorry of throwing a number out. There's probably

1569
01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:28,960
Speaker 1: more than that.

1570
01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:33,640
Speaker 2: And we are keeping our eye on the scoreboard right now.

1571
01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:36,880
Speaker 2: In the NBA, So the Eastern Conference you heard from

1572
01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:41,479
Speaker 2: Monse during the update, playoff matches are set, although we

1573
01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:44,000
Speaker 2: still have to determine obviously the seven and eight seeds

1574
01:20:44,080 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference. As far as the West is concerned,

1575
01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:49,719
Speaker 2: all these games are going on right now. The Lakers

1576
01:20:49,760 --> 01:20:52,439
Speaker 2: with a six point lead on the road against New

1577
01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:55,840
Speaker 2: Orleans and that is a huge matchup there. But we're

1578
01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:58,519
Speaker 2: keeping our eyes especially at the top. We have three

1579
01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:02,040
Speaker 2: teams tied at one, two, three, I mean we're talking about,

1580
01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:04,200
Speaker 2: you know, what's happening at the bottom of the bracket

1581
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 2: in the Western Conference. How about a three white tie

1582
01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:10,479
Speaker 2: at the top of the Western Conference going into the

1583
01:21:10,560 --> 01:21:11,240
Speaker 2: final Sunday.

1584
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:16,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean, it's it's everything you want. You want,

1585
01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:19,960
Speaker 3: a competitive round of golf on Sunday. And I think

1586
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:24,240
Speaker 3: some of the more familiar faces from more recent golf

1587
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:27,880
Speaker 3: pass like you know, Mickelson and Woods and you know,

1588
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:30,800
Speaker 3: even you know, like we were talking about a little

1589
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:35,720
Speaker 3: bit Ricky Fowler and Roy McElroy, who have you know,

1590
01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:39,800
Speaker 3: have been in some ways replaced by some of the

1591
01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 3: other younger golfers coming up, like a Colin Marikawa, who

1592
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:50,280
Speaker 3: if he wins we're talking about his then second Master's victory,

1593
01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:52,240
Speaker 3: his third major victory.

1594
01:21:52,320 --> 01:21:54,840
Speaker 2: Is no, Marikawa has not won the Masters, oh ye

1595
01:21:55,120 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 2: when he won the Open Championship and he won the PGA,

1596
01:21:57,640 --> 01:21:59,640
Speaker 2: that would give him three of the four, three of

1597
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:04,800
Speaker 2: the four, so his his major, his Masters and would

1598
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:07,240
Speaker 2: only be a US Open away from the career Grand Slam,

1599
01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:10,960
Speaker 2: which again, only five golfers have ever won all four

1600
01:22:11,160 --> 01:22:13,280
Speaker 2: of the majors during the course of their careers.

1601
01:22:13,439 --> 01:22:17,479
Speaker 3: If Scheffler wins it, he improves his major count to three.

1602
01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:19,360
Speaker 1: Right, No, shefferd just won the Masters.

1603
01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:23,400
Speaker 4: He just won the Masters. I was off, But I'm

1604
01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:23,640
Speaker 4: going to.

1605
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:25,800
Speaker 2: Tell you right now talking about time, that we're gonna

1606
01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:29,000
Speaker 2: have Ludwig Oberg is gonna win the Masters. Now he

1607
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:30,920
Speaker 2: is two unner on the days. One shout out of

1608
01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:34,639
Speaker 2: the lead. Scheffler just hit his drive on seven into

1609
01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:38,200
Speaker 2: the woods right now. I don't know even if his

1610
01:22:38,360 --> 01:22:42,240
Speaker 2: wife is not ready to deliver today, it's got to

Speaker 2: the the soon to arrive first child. I don't know

1613
01:22:48,160 --> 01:22:51,519
Speaker 2: how what was your mindset in the days, uh leading

1614
01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:54,240
Speaker 2: that to the birth of Tie, your your first son.

1615
01:22:55,160 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 2: I nerve he distracted at all.

1616
01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,439
Speaker 3: I mean yeah, I mean I didn't have a whole

1617
01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:02,880
Speaker 3: lot going on at that point because I had Ty

1618
01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:04,759
Speaker 3: was born in June of twenty fifteen.

1619
01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:07,879
Speaker 4: I had season ending back.

1620
01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,640
Speaker 3: Surgery on a one year deal with the Chargers.

1621
01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:11,000
Speaker 4: The year before.

1622
01:23:11,320 --> 01:23:12,599
Speaker 1: Is he really going to be nine?

1623
01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:15,040
Speaker 4: He's going to be about to be nine. He's about

1624
01:23:15,040 --> 01:23:16,639
Speaker 4: to be nine? Yeah, I know, dude, time flies.

1625
01:23:16,760 --> 01:23:17,880
Speaker 1: The hell's going on here?

1626
01:23:18,479 --> 01:23:21,360
Speaker 3: We were We've been working together for a very long time.

1627
01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:23,200
Speaker 1: I've found wow.

1628
01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:26,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I remember when Sebastia was born, obviously your second,

1629
01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:27,479
Speaker 2: so yeah.

1630
01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1631
01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:31,920
Speaker 3: I mean it's uh, it's pretty it's pretty amazing when

1632
01:23:31,960 --> 01:23:32,600
Speaker 3: you think about it.

1633
01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:33,720
Speaker 5: Now.

1634
01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:34,599
Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong.

1635
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:37,599
Speaker 3: I was blessed because I had the opportunity to really

1636
01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:43,080
Speaker 3: I throw myself into parenthood without the distraction of having

1637
01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:45,559
Speaker 3: to work at that time, because I.

1638
01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:48,280
Speaker 4: Had just really retired from football.

1639
01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:50,800
Speaker 3: Even though I was trying to get workouts going with

1640
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:53,880
Speaker 3: certain teams, my only job at that point was just

1641
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:56,519
Speaker 3: sustain in good enough shape that if any team's called me,

1642
01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:59,240
Speaker 3: I would be ready to, you know, sort of parachute

1643
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,800
Speaker 3: in and help it to win from the moment I

1644
01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:04,120
Speaker 3: got there. So I was keeping my weight up, I

1645
01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:07,640
Speaker 3: was working out and keeping in shape. But you know,

1646
01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:11,880
Speaker 3: the reality of the situation is when you're an unrestricted

1647
01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:15,400
Speaker 3: free agent in the NFL looking for your next opportunity, you're.

1648
01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:17,120
Speaker 4: Basically unemployed, you know.

1649
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:20,240
Speaker 3: So that's where I was at in twenty fourteen, or

1650
01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:22,000
Speaker 3: I should say the summer of twenty fifteen when my

1651
01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:27,080
Speaker 3: firstborn was what came along. And and but I can

1652
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:29,960
Speaker 3: tell you it was all encompassing. When you're down the

1653
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:33,479
Speaker 3: home stretch when your wife is very pregnant and you're

1654
01:24:33,479 --> 01:24:36,880
Speaker 3: getting ready for the date. It's it's all you can

1655
01:24:36,960 --> 01:24:40,160
Speaker 3: think about, really, So it might be good in some

1656
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:43,599
Speaker 3: ways that Scottie Scheffler has, you know, a little bit

1657
01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:46,439
Speaker 3: of an important distraction going on, because if she doesn't

1658
01:24:46,479 --> 01:24:50,160
Speaker 3: go into labor while he's in augusta, well, he gets

1659
01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:52,400
Speaker 3: to kind of have the best of both worlds. He

1660
01:24:52,479 --> 01:24:56,120
Speaker 3: gets to finish out what will end up being undeniably

1661
01:24:56,360 --> 01:24:59,160
Speaker 3: a high finish or a victory for the second time

1662
01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:04,800
Speaker 3: at the Master, or you know, and then have a

1663
01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:07,400
Speaker 3: baby or you know. I mean, you know, even if

1664
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:09,320
Speaker 3: he kind of flames out, even if I see how

1665
01:25:09,360 --> 01:25:12,759
Speaker 3: he finishes twentieth, if he gets to finish the Masters,

1666
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 3: I mean, it's kind of it's kind of impressive that

1667
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:17,080
Speaker 3: during this time he was able to do that.

1668
01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:18,160
Speaker 4: So I don't know, this.

1669
01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:20,639
Speaker 3: Sort of feels like a win win for Scottie Scheffler

1670
01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:21,400
Speaker 3: right now.

1671
01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:24,679
Speaker 2: Again, after hitting into the woods, he hit his second

1672
01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:27,320
Speaker 2: shot into the bunker. He just had out of the bunker,

1673
01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:32,040
Speaker 2: and he's got a lengthy par putt here, and if

1674
01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:34,040
Speaker 2: he were to miss that, then we are going to

1675
01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 2: have at least a three way tie at the top

1676
01:25:36,680 --> 01:25:38,960
Speaker 2: of the lead aboard, and so this is the kind

1677
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:41,160
Speaker 2: of finish you want, you know, it's and then you.

1678
01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:42,919
Speaker 1: Get to that back nine of the Masters.

1679
01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:48,280
Speaker 2: It really is amazing when you think about how, you know,

1680
01:25:48,439 --> 01:25:52,880
Speaker 2: Bobby Jones and that whole group that put together Mackenzie,

1681
01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:55,240
Speaker 2: the guy that was the architect of this course, you know,

1682
01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:58,920
Speaker 2: put it together of the risk reward of the back

1683
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:01,840
Speaker 2: nine at August National, and then you amp it up

1684
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:05,759
Speaker 2: obviously on Sundays with the final round. It just never fails.

1685
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:09,240
Speaker 2: I mean, that's why it's it's such a special tournament

1686
01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:12,679
Speaker 2: in that respect. And I've shared stories again from people

1687
01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:15,080
Speaker 2: that I've known that golfers over the years that have

1688
01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:17,400
Speaker 2: won this tournament, and I ask them all, I mean,

1689
01:26:17,479 --> 01:26:18,639
Speaker 2: why why the Masters?

1690
01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:21,240
Speaker 1: What's the suspecsion? They said, it's everything.

1691
01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:27,799
Speaker 2: Every little detail of this golf tournament makes it Golf's

1692
01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:31,920
Speaker 2: nirvana for a golfer. There's a reason, there's a reason

1693
01:26:32,040 --> 01:26:37,200
Speaker 2: why they still actually send out a formal invitation to

1694
01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:41,080
Speaker 2: every golfer that's invited. It's an invitational to play in

1695
01:26:41,160 --> 01:26:44,080
Speaker 2: the Masters. You get a card in the mail, it's

1696
01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,639
Speaker 2: a formal invitation. You're invited to play in the Masters,

1697
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,160
Speaker 2: even though you'd already know you're in it. It's not

1698
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,400
Speaker 2: like a secret, you know how you qualified it.

1699
01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:53,080
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter.

1700
01:26:53,280 --> 01:26:55,040
Speaker 2: And these guys that have played, you know, if you're

1701
01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,160
Speaker 2: a former champion, you play thirty forty years, I mean,

1702
01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:59,400
Speaker 2: you just keep playing in this thing, and they say

1703
01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:02,840
Speaker 2: it's still give some goosebumps every time they get that invitation.

1704
01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:05,160
Speaker 3: And well, how could it not. I mean, look again,

1705
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,080
Speaker 3: you asked me a question about do modern athletes and

1706
01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:10,800
Speaker 3: I look, I hung up my cleats in football about

1707
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:14,400
Speaker 3: ten years ago. You're still but I mean, having played recently,

1708
01:27:14,520 --> 01:27:18,639
Speaker 3: I guess. And you asked the question, is tradition important?

1709
01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:21,840
Speaker 3: And that's the answer to that question. Like the fact

1710
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:25,080
Speaker 3: that it doesn't matter where these golfers are coming from,

1711
01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:27,600
Speaker 3: what tour they're playing on, whether it be PGA or

1712
01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 3: Live or any of them amateur ranks who get an

1713
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 3: opportunity like this, Neil Shipley, The fact that you get

1714
01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,680
Speaker 3: a formal invitation to go play at one of the

1715
01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:46,960
Speaker 3: most esteemed and exclusive country clubs on the planet, and

1716
01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:51,000
Speaker 3: where all of your golf heroes have played. You know

1717
01:27:51,640 --> 01:27:56,479
Speaker 3: how many you know, like majestic moments have occurred on

1718
01:27:56,640 --> 01:27:59,599
Speaker 3: the greens and the fairways and the t boxes over

1719
01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:02,839
Speaker 3: the core of the history of golf at that tournament,

1720
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:08,360
Speaker 3: at that very same course. It's it's something that's still gripping.

1721
01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:11,599
Speaker 3: It's something that's still important. And like you said, there

1722
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:14,360
Speaker 3: are certain traditions in sports that need to change, that

1723
01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:16,920
Speaker 3: need to go away. There are certain traditions that have

1724
01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:20,040
Speaker 3: been holding back certain sports. I think baseball is guilty

1725
01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:23,680
Speaker 3: of many of these things. I think baseball has been

1726
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:27,000
Speaker 3: attempting recently to give itself a bit of a facelift,

1727
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:30,920
Speaker 3: to get a little bit more of the stodginess out

1728
01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,040
Speaker 3: of the sport and become a little bit more accepting

1729
01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:36,320
Speaker 3: of the times wherein and golf maybe the same way.

1730
01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:39,479
Speaker 3: You know, there's obviously a lot of that same very

1731
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:43,120
Speaker 3: prim and proper feeling associated around golf, and some of

1732
01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:46,719
Speaker 3: those walls are coming down to. But traditions, the important ones,

1733
01:28:46,840 --> 01:28:49,200
Speaker 3: the ones that will stand the test of time, are

1734
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 3: still important to modern athletes. And I think the Masters

1735
01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:59,120
Speaker 3: and some of the other majors really they really exemplify

1736
01:28:59,240 --> 01:29:02,200
Speaker 3: that and they highly and this week and the finish

1737
01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,519
Speaker 3: to this week with a bunch of young guys at

1738
01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:07,280
Speaker 3: close to the top of this leaderboard with Scheffler, more,

1739
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:08,320
Speaker 3: Kawa and Homa.

1740
01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:11,320
Speaker 4: You know, these these are good. This is the next

1741
01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:12,719
Speaker 4: generation of golf.

1742
01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:15,599
Speaker 3: All these guys are like basically thirty or younger who

1743
01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:17,200
Speaker 3: were talking about in contention.

1744
01:29:17,360 --> 01:29:21,240
Speaker 2: On Sunday, I was listening to a talk show hosted

1745
01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:24,479
Speaker 2: by a woman. I'm not sure who she was, but

1746
01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:27,280
Speaker 2: she sounded fairly knowledgeable, so I tuned in for a

1747
01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:31,519
Speaker 2: little bit and she was talking about the Master's golf tournament,

1748
01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 2: admitting that she knows nothing about golf.

1749
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:35,600
Speaker 1: She goes like, I don't get this at all, this

1750
01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:36,479
Speaker 1: whole golf thing.

1751
01:29:37,040 --> 01:29:40,360
Speaker 2: But she said, what I really don't understand is how

1752
01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:44,600
Speaker 2: do you get away with a golf tournament named the Masters?

1753
01:29:44,800 --> 01:29:50,800
Speaker 2: H How does that fly in twenty twenty four? And

1754
01:29:50,920 --> 01:29:56,840
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's an interesting spin that I'd never thought about. Yeah,

1755
01:29:57,200 --> 01:29:59,920
Speaker 2: I mean, she goes, so the name of this tournament

1756
01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:05,800
Speaker 2: is the Masters. Yeah, And I'm like, they never really

1757
01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:06,400
Speaker 2: thought about that.

1758
01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:11,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess there's a lot of phrases that.

1759
01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:14,760
Speaker 1: You know, and oh this in this world, I mean,

1760
01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:16,680
Speaker 1: everything has been twisted, you know that.

1761
01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:17,120
Speaker 4: Well?

1762
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:19,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, though, I think I think

1763
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:21,960
Speaker 3: there's a lot of phrases that have been you know,

1764
01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:25,920
Speaker 3: re examined under the current lens, you know, whether it

1765
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:26,599
Speaker 3: be the boy.

1766
01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:29,600
Speaker 1: Well, remember they don't like to use the term owners anymore.

1767
01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:33,200
Speaker 3: In basketball in the NBA, they're referred to as governors.

1768
01:30:34,040 --> 01:30:39,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, they you're no longer an owner because of I

1769
01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:44,040
Speaker 2: guess perceived reference. Uh so you're now a governor and

1770
01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:47,599
Speaker 2: that I think she was following up without like masters. Really,

1771
01:30:50,080 --> 01:30:52,840
Speaker 2: I was like, can we just stop and just it's

1772
01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:55,320
Speaker 2: a golf tournament, okay, and you got the best golfers

1773
01:30:55,360 --> 01:30:57,360
Speaker 2: in the world and they're competing for a green jacksually

1774
01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,040
Speaker 2: goes what's up with that green jacket thing?

1775
01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:01,800
Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, case stop. Then I turned the channel.

1776
01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:02,559
Speaker 1: I was like enough.

1777
01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:05,680
Speaker 2: Lakers, by the way, are leading the Pelicans twenty eight

1778
01:31:05,760 --> 01:31:08,280
Speaker 2: twenty four at the end of the first quarter. The

1779
01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:12,320
Speaker 2: Thunder are in the driver's seat to be the one

1780
01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:15,360
Speaker 2: seed in the West if they win today, and they

1781
01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:18,760
Speaker 2: have doubled up on the Mavericks forty four to twenty two.

1782
01:31:19,560 --> 01:31:23,720
Speaker 2: Second quarter just underway there. Meanwhile, apparently the Timberwolves, who

1783
01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:26,200
Speaker 2: conceivably be the one seed if they won in the

1784
01:31:26,280 --> 01:31:29,320
Speaker 2: Thunder loss, they're getting blown out at home by the Suns.

1785
01:31:29,920 --> 01:31:33,200
Speaker 2: Sons are desperately trying to get out of that seventh seed,

1786
01:31:33,320 --> 01:31:37,000
Speaker 2: so if they win and the Pelicans lose, the Suns

1787
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:39,639
Speaker 2: will be the sixth seed. They avoid the playing round,

1788
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:42,120
Speaker 2: and then the Pelicans and the Lakers have a rematch.

1789
01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:43,760
Speaker 2: We'll have much more on that, but we're gonna take

1790
01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:46,200
Speaker 2: a little detour on the other side and check in

1791
01:31:46,280 --> 01:31:50,519
Speaker 2: with our MLB insider, John Paul Morosi will join us.

1792
01:31:50,640 --> 01:31:54,040
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvey, Rich Hornberger. Here

01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:04,800

Speaker 2: at minus six Home, one shot back at minus five.

1797
01:32:09,120 --> 01:32:11,599
Speaker 2: It is time to check in with one of our

1798
01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 2: favorite people on the planet. He's a man that wears

1799

Speaker 2: many hats. He's our MLB insider here at Fox Sports Radio.

1800
01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:21,200
Speaker 2: Is also mister Hockey, among many, many, many other things.

1801
01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:23,760
Speaker 2: The great John Paul Morosi is joining us right now.

1802
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:24,240
Speaker 1: JP.

1803
01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:27,200
Speaker 2: I want to actually ask you a hockey question. First,

1804
01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:32,040
Speaker 2: sure about the future of the Coyotes franchise. So the

1805
01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:37,040
Speaker 2: question is, are they going to move to Utah, and

1806
01:32:37,200 --> 01:32:40,599
Speaker 2: if they do, does Arizona get an expansion team, because

1807
01:32:40,680 --> 01:32:44,280
Speaker 2: there's been talk about a new arena to try to

1808
01:32:44,360 --> 01:32:46,760
Speaker 2: keep the NHL in Arizona.

1809
01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:49,280
Speaker 1: How is this going to play out?

1810
01:32:50,320 --> 01:32:53,160
Speaker 5: Well? Good afterdon gentlemen. It is a big topic right

1811
01:32:53,200 --> 01:32:57,400
Speaker 5: now in hockey circles, and it does appear, based on

1812
01:32:57,520 --> 01:33:01,719
Speaker 5: what we know publicly, that that a move to Utah

1813
01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:07,160
Speaker 5: is likely as long as the league and the current

1814
01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:11,920
Speaker 5: Coyotes ownership and the incoming Utah ownership can get everything

1815
01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:15,720
Speaker 5: organized this week. And Elliott Freeman reported last night on

1816
01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:18,479
Speaker 5: Hockey Night in Canada that the hope is that they'll

1817
01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:21,320
Speaker 5: have an announcement by the end of this week. So

1818
01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:26,240
Speaker 5: things are moving quickly. I think the NHL just simply

1819
01:33:27,320 --> 01:33:31,080
Speaker 5: was not comfortable waiting for the result of the land

1820
01:33:31,160 --> 01:33:34,680
Speaker 5: auction later on this year. Of course, there was at

1821
01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:38,240
Speaker 5: one point in time a vote in Tempe that would

1822
01:33:38,280 --> 01:33:42,160
Speaker 5: have been mixed use and a full entertainment district that

1823
01:33:42,280 --> 01:33:44,960
Speaker 5: they had very high hopes for, but the voters of

1824
01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:50,639
Speaker 5: Tempe rejected that proposal, and so once that proposal failed,

1825
01:33:51,240 --> 01:33:53,720
Speaker 5: there really wasn't a clear spot for them to go.

1826
01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:57,439
Speaker 5: And that's why the land auction had become their best

1827
01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:01,240
Speaker 5: option at this stage. But the NHL has been down

1828
01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:04,920
Speaker 5: this road with Arizona so many times. They just simply

1829
01:34:04,960 --> 01:34:08,080
Speaker 5: couldn't wait, and they knew they had a very eager

1830
01:34:08,640 --> 01:34:13,120
Speaker 5: ownership group in Utah, one that would coincide with, of course,

1831
01:34:13,200 --> 01:34:16,080
Speaker 5: Salt Lake City, we believe will be hosting a future

1832
01:34:16,360 --> 01:34:21,080
Speaker 5: Winter Olympic Games with NHL pleas Ole Sports. They've also

1833
01:34:21,600 --> 01:34:24,559
Speaker 5: expressed an interest in baseball as well, so I think

1834
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:28,760
Speaker 5: the NHL saw an opportunity and it's it's sad. I

1835
01:34:28,840 --> 01:34:31,320
Speaker 5: really I feel for the fans of Arizona because there

1836
01:34:31,760 --> 01:34:35,280
Speaker 5: has been a very core loyal group of fans of

1837
01:34:35,360 --> 01:34:38,720
Speaker 5: the Coyotes for a long time. But the lack of

1838
01:34:38,800 --> 01:34:43,000
Speaker 5: a viable, long term NHL home there, I think was

1839
01:34:43,160 --> 01:34:46,800
Speaker 5: just in the end too big of an obstacle. And

1840
01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:49,880
Speaker 5: they've had some great moments. And then let's not forget

1841
01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:54,439
Speaker 5: the best player, the best American player right now, Austin

1842
01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:58,439
Speaker 5: Matthews grew up in Scottsdale. And if the Coyotes don't

1843
01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:01,920
Speaker 5: exist the Maple Lee, we don't have their superstar player,

1844
01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:04,840
Speaker 5: and Team USA doesn't have the superstar player at the

1845
01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:09,280
Speaker 5: next Olympics. So we owe we as American hockey people,

1846
01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:12,360
Speaker 5: owe a great debt of gratitude to the commissioner for

1847
01:35:12,439 --> 01:35:16,200
Speaker 5: having a franchise there and the Coyotes group and the

1848
01:35:16,280 --> 01:35:18,920
Speaker 5: Junior Coyotes that that have done a lot to develop

1849
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:21,160
Speaker 5: young talent there for a long time. It's just I

1850
01:35:21,200 --> 01:35:23,960
Speaker 5: think the NHL just can't wait any longer, and it

1851
01:35:24,080 --> 01:35:26,080
Speaker 5: looks like by the end of this week we could

1852
01:35:26,120 --> 01:35:28,360
Speaker 5: have an NHL franchise in Salt Lake City.

1853
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:29,360
Speaker 4: Unbelievable.

1854
01:35:29,600 --> 01:35:33,479
Speaker 3: Switching gears to Major League Baseball. You accurately predicted last

1855
01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:36,720
Speaker 3: week when we finished our interview that it wouldn't be

1856
01:35:36,760 --> 01:35:39,000
Speaker 3: the last time we were talking about shoe Heyo Tani

1857
01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:43,880
Speaker 3: and his interpreter, Ipe Mitch O'Hara and the alleged at

1858
01:35:43,920 --> 01:35:48,880
Speaker 3: the moment theft of millions of dollars. Well, that amount

1859
01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,720
Speaker 3: has now ballooned up beyond that four and a half

1860
01:35:51,800 --> 01:35:56,120
Speaker 3: million dollars that was reported originally to over sixteen million

1861
01:35:56,280 --> 01:36:00,120
Speaker 3: dollars of show Heyo Tani's money stolen from him to

1862
01:36:00,560 --> 01:36:04,759
Speaker 3: I guess pay for what was a degenerate gambling addiction

1863
01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:10,920
Speaker 3: by Mitsuhara, and he was using a illegal sports book

1864
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,519
Speaker 3: to place his bets and the bets ranged from ten

1865
01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 3: dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars. His average bet

1866
01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:21,560
Speaker 3: was somewhere in the range of thirteen thousand dollars. I

1867
01:36:22,400 --> 01:36:26,640
Speaker 3: I'm willing to believe that somebody can be naive and

1868
01:36:26,800 --> 01:36:31,080
Speaker 3: be convinced by a con man that you're that that

1869
01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:33,840
Speaker 3: that everything's on the up and up, that they're operating

1870
01:36:34,160 --> 01:36:37,479
Speaker 3: com with with you know, any disregard to truth or

1871
01:36:37,600 --> 01:36:41,160
Speaker 3: feeling or empathy for the person that they're affecting, and

1872
01:36:41,280 --> 01:36:45,320
Speaker 3: that that potentially show Hey Otani had no thoughts that

1873
01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:49,920
Speaker 3: anything below board was happening with ipe Mitzuhara, but but

1874
01:36:50,040 --> 01:36:54,160
Speaker 3: he didn't notice that sixteen million dollars was missing at

1875
01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:58,200
Speaker 3: any point. It was there was no inkling that that

1876
01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:01,360
Speaker 3: ip A mitz Ohara was involved in anything other than

1877
01:37:01,520 --> 01:37:05,000
Speaker 3: just being his interpreter. That this was I mean from

1878
01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 3: everything I've read and maybe you know more than I

1879
01:37:07,200 --> 01:37:09,720
Speaker 3: do on this one, JP, but this was a complete

1880
01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:13,080
Speaker 3: shock to show Hey at the time that these revelations

1881
01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:15,960
Speaker 3: were brought to the general public, but he had he

1882
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:20,240
Speaker 3: had no prior notice that anything was happening.

1883
01:37:20,400 --> 01:37:24,080
Speaker 4: Is is that is that the report as it stands, Yes,

1884
01:37:24,160 --> 01:37:26,080
Speaker 4: it is and It really.

1885
01:37:26,080 --> 01:37:31,200
Speaker 5: Is a striking time in American sports to process what

1886
01:37:31,720 --> 01:37:34,800
Speaker 5: has happened. And what I think is important to point

1887
01:37:34,840 --> 01:37:41,080
Speaker 5: out Rich is that what Shoi Otani said publicly at

1888
01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:46,920
Speaker 5: the very highly attended and broadly broadcast statement that he

1889
01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:50,960
Speaker 5: gave a Dodger Stadium before opening day, that what he

1890
01:37:51,240 --> 01:37:55,760
Speaker 5: said that day checks out with the results of the

1891
01:37:55,840 --> 01:38:01,040
Speaker 5: federal investigation. And so in every possible way, based on

1892
01:38:01,120 --> 01:38:05,080
Speaker 5: what we have available to us at the moment, show

1893
01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:10,320
Speaker 5: A has been completely exonerated in terms of any questions

1894
01:38:10,360 --> 01:38:14,880
Speaker 5: that were sent his way about his extentive knowledge. And

1895
01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:19,479
Speaker 5: I think, to me, it's a reminder, and you've lived

1896
01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:23,240
Speaker 5: this in professional sports when when you gain a level

1897
01:38:23,320 --> 01:38:28,120
Speaker 5: of fame and prosperity in the pro game's there's people

1898
01:38:28,320 --> 01:38:31,200
Speaker 5: around you. People are aware of how much pro athletes make.

1899
01:38:31,600 --> 01:38:36,880
Speaker 5: And I think that this certainly is a very strong

1900
01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:43,880
Speaker 5: bit of reminder, cautionary tale for all athletes to double check,

1901
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:48,439
Speaker 5: triple check your financial well being, to consider the people

1902
01:38:48,479 --> 01:38:52,560
Speaker 5: who are around you and have access to your accounts.

1903
01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:57,760
Speaker 5: Hueer trusting because obviously it was not just SHOWE who

1904
01:38:57,840 --> 01:39:02,800
Speaker 5: had implicit trust in in epay. It was Show's representatives

1905
01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:05,479
Speaker 5: that c AA also had the same level of trust

1906
01:39:05,720 --> 01:39:09,080
Speaker 5: in Epay, and Ipay had built up this goodwill all

1907
01:39:09,160 --> 01:39:13,400
Speaker 5: over the place, and clearly he betrayed that trust, and

1908
01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:17,920
Speaker 5: and that to me is something that is a profound

1909
01:39:18,400 --> 01:39:23,480
Speaker 5: cautionary tale. Obviously, there's going to be still the criminal proceedings,

1910
01:39:23,520 --> 01:39:26,840
Speaker 5: and there's the jurisprudence aspect of all this that has

1911
01:39:26,960 --> 01:39:30,559
Speaker 5: not yet been finalized. But I think whenever the book

1912
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:35,760
Speaker 5: is closed on Epay and and what happened there, the

1913
01:39:35,880 --> 01:39:41,519
Speaker 5: conversation will remain about pro athletes, who's around them, who's

1914
01:39:41,560 --> 01:39:45,240
Speaker 5: advising them, what the best practices are, and also honestly

1915
01:39:45,880 --> 01:39:49,160
Speaker 5: the best practices of teams, and who is allowed to

1916
01:39:49,240 --> 01:39:52,880
Speaker 5: be in the circle of trust, because clearly this is

1917
01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:56,559
Speaker 5: a profound hardship that show is now going through. Clearly,

1918
01:39:56,640 --> 01:40:00,479
Speaker 5: his play has been phenomenal through it is he's expert

1919
01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:05,360
Speaker 5: at compartmentalizing, clearly, but there's there's personal pain here, and

1920
01:40:05,439 --> 01:40:07,760
Speaker 5: I think that that, to me is something that is

1921
01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:11,920
Speaker 5: going to linger as a great lesson to everybody involved

1922
01:40:11,960 --> 01:40:15,440
Speaker 5: in sports. When when this uh, when this particular controversy

1923
01:40:15,560 --> 01:40:17,080
Speaker 5: is in the rear view mirror of the of the

1924
01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:18,599
Speaker 5: public consciousness.

1925
01:40:18,360 --> 01:40:21,920
Speaker 2: JP were barely three weeks into the season and pitchers

1926
01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:26,120
Speaker 2: are dropping like flies, I mean, season ending injuries, pictures

1927
01:40:26,200 --> 01:40:27,439
Speaker 2: going on the I l.

1928
01:40:29,400 --> 01:40:31,720
Speaker 1: How much of this, if any, has to do with

1929
01:40:31,800 --> 01:40:35,040
Speaker 1: the pitching clock, Steve, I really believe.

1930
01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:38,080
Speaker 5: It is almost nothing to do with the pitching clock.

1931
01:40:38,240 --> 01:40:43,560
Speaker 5: And listen, these are nuanced topics. It's difficult when you

1932
01:40:43,600 --> 01:40:46,800
Speaker 5: think about the human body for for anyone to say,

1933
01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:51,879
Speaker 5: injury A is the clear consequence of factor B. Period,

1934
01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 5: There's no other element going on here. But I think

1935
01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:59,080
Speaker 5: that the important thing to keep in mind here is

1936
01:40:59,200 --> 01:41:06,160
Speaker 5: the trend of velocity and spin and sports specialization and

1937
01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:12,000
Speaker 5: teenagers having Tommy John surgery, and teenagers and younger specializing

1938
01:41:12,040 --> 01:41:15,639
Speaker 5: in one sport and playing a year round. Those trends

1939
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:20,879
Speaker 5: were in play, and those trends were having militarious impacts

1940
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:25,799
Speaker 5: on pitcher health long before the pitchtimer became an element

1941
01:41:25,880 --> 01:41:27,960
Speaker 5: of the game. And so I think it's just a

1942
01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:30,800
Speaker 5: little bit disingenuous to say that that's the cause of it.

1943
01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:35,280
Speaker 5: Could it be having some small impact, I suppose as possible,

1944
01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:38,200
Speaker 5: but I don't see it in the numbers and in

1945
01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:41,840
Speaker 5: the data, because the just look at the number of

1946
01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:47,000
Speaker 5: two hundred inning pitchers that we have in any given year.

1947
01:41:47,600 --> 01:41:50,439
Speaker 5: In twenty twenty two, which was the last year before

1948
01:41:50,479 --> 01:41:53,920
Speaker 5: the pitch timer came into being, compare that to twenty twelve,

1949
01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:58,120
Speaker 5: Compare that to two thousand and two. It's become a

1950
01:41:58,280 --> 01:42:02,680
Speaker 5: different game in the last twenty years, and that, to

1951
01:42:02,800 --> 01:42:04,800
Speaker 5: me is a question that's going to have to be

1952
01:42:05,439 --> 01:42:08,880
Speaker 5: reckoned with by MLB and the players. But no, I

1953
01:42:09,040 --> 01:42:11,200
Speaker 5: do not think this is an issue of the pitch timer.

1954
01:42:11,520 --> 01:42:16,720
Speaker 3: Hey JP, It's becoming more prevalent where you see umpires

1955
01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:21,160
Speaker 3: making I don't know, poor judgment calls behind home played,

1956
01:42:21,280 --> 01:42:23,000
Speaker 3: especially with balls and strikes.

1957
01:42:23,040 --> 01:42:26,680
Speaker 4: And we know the human condition. We know that sometimes

1958
01:42:27,520 --> 01:42:29,480
Speaker 4: you know, vindictiveness.

1959
01:42:28,920 --> 01:42:31,960
Speaker 3: Or tired eyes, or you know, a variety of different

1960
01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:35,080
Speaker 3: reasons can lead to bad calls being made.

1961
01:42:35,600 --> 01:42:38,840
Speaker 4: But it's just becoming easier to see these bad calls,

1962
01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:39,200
Speaker 4: you know.

1963
01:42:39,400 --> 01:42:41,600
Speaker 3: So as much as it's been a part of the

1964
01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:45,040
Speaker 3: game for I mean well over a century now, it

1965
01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:48,000
Speaker 3: feels like we're getting closer and closer to that being

1966
01:42:48,080 --> 01:42:50,760
Speaker 3: the next major change in Major League Baseball to have

1967
01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:55,080
Speaker 3: a system in place where these home played umpires are

1968
01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:59,320
Speaker 3: overruled or at least challenged by robotic umps and then

1969
01:42:59,360 --> 01:43:02,240
Speaker 3: potentially ultimately replaced by robotic ms.

1970
01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:05,920
Speaker 5: How close are we though, Well, I do think that

1971
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:09,000
Speaker 5: in the next three to four years we will see

1972
01:43:09,120 --> 01:43:12,960
Speaker 5: some element of the automated ball Strike system ABS, as

1973
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:15,920
Speaker 5: it's called it in the minor leagues. Whether it's next

1974
01:43:16,040 --> 01:43:19,400
Speaker 5: year is I think still to be determined. It seems

1975
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:23,360
Speaker 5: to me that based on surveys and what's been said

1976
01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:30,040
Speaker 5: that minor league players like the challenge system, whereby if

1977
01:43:30,120 --> 01:43:33,200
Speaker 5: there is an egregious miss during your ad bat, you

1978
01:43:33,320 --> 01:43:36,000
Speaker 5: tap your helmet and you say, I want to review this,

1979
01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:41,519
Speaker 5: and within ten seconds there's a new call if it

1980
01:43:41,640 --> 01:43:44,720
Speaker 5: was missed, and the umpire makes the adjustment. I think

1981
01:43:44,880 --> 01:43:47,479
Speaker 5: that's the fairest way to do it, because there are

1982
01:43:47,600 --> 01:43:51,760
Speaker 5: still times where by the letter of the law, a

1983
01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:56,679
Speaker 5: ball should be considered a strike. Let's say a catcher

1984
01:43:56,800 --> 01:44:00,560
Speaker 5: sets up inside to a left handed batter, but the

1985
01:44:00,680 --> 01:44:03,800
Speaker 5: pitcher misses a spot by a foot and the catcher

1986
01:44:03,880 --> 01:44:05,439
Speaker 5: has to lean over to the other side of the

1987
01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:09,240
Speaker 5: of the plate to catch it. The ball technically eclips

1988
01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:11,759
Speaker 5: the strike zone, but that has not been a strike

1989
01:44:11,800 --> 01:44:14,880
Speaker 5: in the old history of baseball because the pictures the

1990
01:44:14,880 --> 01:44:18,400
Speaker 5: spot by a foot and along those lines that if

1991
01:44:18,439 --> 01:44:21,880
Speaker 5: it's the challenge system, the catcher is not going to

1992
01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:26,439
Speaker 5: ask for a challenge there because because that's just never

1993
01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:29,320
Speaker 5: been a strike and you would not think to do that,

1994
01:44:30,160 --> 01:44:33,120
Speaker 5: and because if you only get three a game, you

1995
01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:36,160
Speaker 5: want to be darned sure that you're going to get

1996
01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:38,759
Speaker 5: the call when you when you ask for the challenge.

1997
01:44:38,800 --> 01:44:42,640
Speaker 5: And so that's where I think it's going. Where it

1998
01:44:42,760 --> 01:44:46,120
Speaker 5: seems that the minor league hitters they like the consistency

1999
01:44:46,160 --> 01:44:49,800
Speaker 5: of the strike zone and in a lot of ways

2000
01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:53,400
Speaker 5: they like they still like having some element of the

2001
01:44:53,560 --> 01:44:56,920
Speaker 5: of the human part of the game. The umpire gets

2002
01:44:56,960 --> 01:44:59,360
Speaker 5: to keep his part of the game. He's got a

2003
01:44:59,400 --> 01:45:01,559
Speaker 5: little bit of a bad stop behind him, but it's

2004
01:45:01,600 --> 01:45:07,760
Speaker 5: still part of the game. And the catcher importantly, pitch framing, calling, presentation,

2005
01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:10,240
Speaker 5: they're still part of the game. You just have a

2006
01:45:10,280 --> 01:45:13,680
Speaker 5: little bit of a helper if a call is missed egregiously.

2007
01:45:13,760 --> 01:45:18,759
Speaker 5: And I think that, honestly, is what brought instant replay

2008
01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:21,519
Speaker 5: into our game to begin with. It was avoiding the

2009
01:45:22,360 --> 01:45:26,479
Speaker 5: perfect game spoiling call or the game changing miss on

2010
01:45:26,560 --> 01:45:30,080
Speaker 5: the basis it was not to be fair the call

2011
01:45:30,240 --> 01:45:34,040
Speaker 5: that we see sometimes where the replay tries to catch

2012
01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:38,040
Speaker 5: the glimpse if the runner slid and lost contact with

2013
01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:40,920
Speaker 5: a base and second base for a fraction of a second,

2014
01:45:41,080 --> 01:45:43,920
Speaker 5: but was safe otherwise and is now getting called out.

2015
01:45:44,360 --> 01:45:48,519
Speaker 5: That's not why we brought in replay. It's still fair,

2016
01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,040
Speaker 5: that's what happens, but that's not the reason why we

2017
01:45:51,160 --> 01:45:54,920
Speaker 5: got it. And I think that this would be a

2018
01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:58,439
Speaker 5: part of the game to prevent the egregious miss Even though,

2019
01:45:58,520 --> 01:46:01,840
Speaker 5: as I have said many times, my friends, the umpires

2020
01:46:02,120 --> 01:46:06,000
Speaker 5: are as good now and as accurate now as they've

2021
01:46:06,080 --> 01:46:09,120
Speaker 5: ever been. We just didn't really have social media forty

2022
01:46:09,240 --> 01:46:12,840
Speaker 5: years ago to capture and descend through the internet every

2023
01:46:13,040 --> 01:46:14,840
Speaker 5: miss that a whole plan umpire makes.

2024
01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:18,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, well again, strike ball, fair, foul, safe out.

2025
01:46:18,720 --> 01:46:22,120
Speaker 2: All can be done electronically. I would eliminate umpires, but that's.

2026
01:46:22,479 --> 01:46:24,120
Speaker 1: Just me, that's just I.

2027
01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:27,479
Speaker 5: See. We could disagree with I know, I know many

2028
01:46:27,520 --> 01:46:29,360
Speaker 5: things we don't aligned on, but this is not one

2029
01:46:29,400 --> 01:46:29,639
Speaker 5: of them.

2030
01:46:29,720 --> 01:46:31,559
Speaker 2: We have no fouls, we know, I have no penalties

2031
01:46:31,640 --> 01:46:33,360
Speaker 2: to call. All could be done electronically.

2032
01:46:33,479 --> 01:46:33,759
Speaker 1: JP.

2033
01:46:33,920 --> 01:46:36,600

Speaker 2: Let's find out what is trending right now, and she

2061
01:47:55,800 --> 01:48:00,439
Speaker 2: has been responsible for trying to make sense of what's happening. Diday,

2062
01:48:00,520 --> 01:48:03,519
Speaker 2: a crazy final day of the regular season in the

2063
01:48:03,640 --> 01:48:04,799
Speaker 2: NBA plus the Masters.

2064
01:48:05,080 --> 01:48:07,599
Speaker 9: Yea, yeah, no, the Masters is also getting crazy right now.

2065
01:48:07,680 --> 01:48:11,240
Speaker 7: We have a three way tie Scotti, Scheffler, Colin Morrikawa,

2066
01:48:11,400 --> 01:48:12,480
Speaker 7: and Ludwig.

2067
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:15,360
Speaker 1: Heil Olberg Oberg. Yeah, it said a, but it's like

2068
01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:16,920
Speaker 1: over Okay, it's.

2069
01:48:16,800 --> 01:48:17,800
Speaker 9: A three way tie.

2070
01:48:17,880 --> 01:48:22,000
Speaker 7: They are all seven underpar overall, plenty of game left

2071
01:48:22,080 --> 01:48:22,839
Speaker 7: at the Masters.

2072
01:48:22,960 --> 01:48:25,680
Speaker 9: Okay, now we're gonna head to the NBA fellas for

2073
01:48:25,760 --> 01:48:26,479
Speaker 9: the first time ever.

2074
01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:29,559
Speaker 7: In the Western Conference, there's currently a three way tie

2075
01:48:30,040 --> 01:48:32,639
Speaker 7: for the top seed in the West between the Nuggets,

2076
01:48:32,720 --> 01:48:34,280
Speaker 7: the Timberwolves, and the thunder.

2077
01:48:34,760 --> 01:48:38,280
Speaker 9: Let's say that they all win or they all lose.

2078
01:48:38,880 --> 01:48:41,080
Speaker 9: The number one seed would be the Thunder.

2079
01:48:41,640 --> 01:48:43,720
Speaker 7: Then the Timberwolves would be the two seed, and the

2080
01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:45,680
Speaker 7: Nuggets would be the three seed. That's if they all

2081
01:48:45,760 --> 01:48:48,120
Speaker 7: lose if they all win. The Nuggets right now are

2082
01:48:48,200 --> 01:48:51,080
Speaker 7: beating the Grizzlies sixty four to fifty one. They're headed

2083
01:48:51,120 --> 01:48:54,200
Speaker 7: to halftime. The Timberwolves are losing to the Suns. The

2084
01:48:54,320 --> 01:48:57,120
Speaker 7: Suns want to win. It is sixty six fifty three

2085
01:48:57,360 --> 01:49:01,360
Speaker 7: at halftime. The Thunder crushing the Mavericks eighty two to

2086
01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:05,799
Speaker 7: forty one at halftime. So let's say this scenario sticks

2087
01:49:06,200 --> 01:49:10,120
Speaker 7: and the Timberwolves lose, but the Nuggets and the Thunder win.

2088
01:49:10,600 --> 01:49:13,040
Speaker 7: Then the Thunder would be the number one seed, the

2089
01:49:13,160 --> 01:49:15,240
Speaker 7: Nuggets would be the two seed, and the Wolves would

2090
01:49:15,240 --> 01:49:18,760
Speaker 7: be the three seed. But anything can happen, fellas, so

2091
01:49:18,960 --> 01:49:21,760
Speaker 7: much game left, the other games going on. Lakers on

2092
01:49:21,840 --> 01:49:24,880
Speaker 7: top of the Pelicans sixty to forty three, three minutes to.

2093
01:49:24,920 --> 01:49:26,080
Speaker 9: Go in the first half.

2094
01:49:26,360 --> 01:49:30,040
Speaker 7: At halftime, Spurs playing without Victor Wan Banyama are beating

2095
01:49:30,120 --> 01:49:30,639
Speaker 7: the Pistons.

2096
01:49:30,720 --> 01:49:32,160
Speaker 9: Nobody really cares, but why not?

2097
01:49:32,320 --> 01:49:36,519
Speaker 7: Sixty three forty Warriors Jazz Warriors on top sixty three

2098
01:49:36,680 --> 01:49:39,439
Speaker 7: fifty six, also halftime, just like in LA, where the

2099
01:49:39,479 --> 01:49:42,479
Speaker 7: Clippers are up on the Rockets fifty one to forty eight.

2100
01:49:42,760 --> 01:49:45,200
Speaker 7: The Kings also trying to win this one at halftime,

2101
01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:48,120
Speaker 7: up on the Trailblazer sixty five to thirty seven.

2102
01:49:48,680 --> 01:49:49,719
Speaker 9: We do know what's happening.

2103
01:49:49,880 --> 01:49:52,840
Speaker 7: In the Eastern Conference playoffs, New York secured the number

2104
01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:55,760
Speaker 7: two seed after defeating the Bulls in overtime. They're gonna

2105
01:49:55,760 --> 01:49:58,040
Speaker 7: face the winner of the seven to eight playing game

2106
01:49:58,080 --> 01:50:00,920
Speaker 7: between the Heat and the seventy six ers on Wednesday.

2107
01:50:01,080 --> 01:50:03,599
Speaker 7: Chicago is gonna host the Hawks as the nine ten

2108
01:50:03,680 --> 01:50:06,880
Speaker 7: seeds on Wednesday as well. The Magic beat the Bucks,

2109
01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:09,799
Speaker 7: but Milwaukee secured the third seed. They're gonna face Indiana,

2110
01:50:09,880 --> 01:50:12,400
Speaker 7: who is the sixth seed. And then the Hornets defeated

2111
01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:14,479
Speaker 7: the Calves, so the Calves fall to the fourth seed.

2112
01:50:14,720 --> 01:50:18,360
Speaker 7: They're gonna take on Orlando as the fifth seed. Too

2113
01:50:18,439 --> 01:50:19,679
Speaker 7: much going on, We've.

2114
01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:22,320
Speaker 1: Got based When you repeat that, I'm shy.

2115
01:50:24,520 --> 01:50:26,320
Speaker 6: I try to make it as simple as possible.

2116
01:50:26,479 --> 01:50:30,000
Speaker 7: No scores, just their seeds, no scores of who they beat,

2117
01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:33,679
Speaker 7: because it doesn't matter anymore. In Major League Baseball, we're

2118
01:50:33,800 --> 01:50:37,400
Speaker 7: in extra innings in Cleveland between the Yankees and the Guardians,

2119
01:50:37,439 --> 01:50:41,120
Speaker 7: with Anthony Rizzo with an RBI single puts the Yankees

2120
01:50:41,160 --> 01:50:43,479
Speaker 7: on top it seven to five. Bottom of the fifth

2121
01:50:43,720 --> 01:50:47,160
Speaker 7: again in Cleveland, Reds beating the White Sox ten to three,

2122
01:50:47,280 --> 01:50:50,800
Speaker 7: bottom of the seventh, Astro still beating the Rangers.

2123
01:50:50,479 --> 01:50:53,080
Speaker 9: At home eight to two top of the ninth, and

2124
01:50:53,160 --> 01:50:55,320
Speaker 9: the Cubs with the early lead against the Mariners. It's

2125
01:50:55,360 --> 01:50:55,840
Speaker 9: one zero.

2126
01:50:56,040 --> 01:50:58,120
Speaker 7: They're about to start the bottom of the second inning.

2127
01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:00,639
Speaker 7: Victory is also for the Red Sox and the Orioles.

2128
01:51:00,720 --> 01:51:04,599
Speaker 7: The Pirates give Andrew McCutcheon his flowers his three hundredth

2129
01:51:04,720 --> 01:51:07,840
Speaker 7: career home run as they beat the Phillies. Blue Jays

2130
01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:11,400
Speaker 7: also won braves over the Marlins, Tigers over the Twins.

2131
01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:12,439
Speaker 9: And the Rays beat the Giants.

2132
01:51:12,880 --> 01:51:13,840
Speaker 3: What a day.

2133
01:51:14,600 --> 01:51:15,719
Speaker 9: I need a drink.

2134
01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:20,479
Speaker 2: You take a break, one seed, you take a break,

2135
01:51:22,280 --> 01:51:24,120
Speaker 2: because I hate to tell you got a lot more coming.

2136
01:51:24,360 --> 01:51:26,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm still here, I know, I know.

2137
01:51:28,479 --> 01:51:30,799
Speaker 2: By the way, it's it's great to see the Mavericks

2138
01:51:30,880 --> 01:51:34,200
Speaker 2: really show up today. So Dodger sits Yeah, and they're

2139
01:51:34,360 --> 01:51:37,360
Speaker 2: down eighty two to forty one at half time.

2140
01:51:37,320 --> 01:51:42,920
Speaker 9: Right, yeah, yeah one at the half Clippers.

2141
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:44,400
Speaker 1: You think dodgon Ch has an effect.

2142
01:51:44,120 --> 01:51:44,599
Speaker 4: On that team?

2143
01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:46,599
Speaker 9: Maybe maybe he may be the MVP.

2144
01:51:46,840 --> 01:51:48,120
Speaker 13: Can I throw a thought out to you guys?

2145
01:51:48,240 --> 01:51:48,439
Speaker 4: Yeah?

2146
01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:50,960
Speaker 13: Yeah, okay, So based on the way everything is falling

2147
01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:53,000
Speaker 13: right now, right now, Thunder would be the one seed,

2148
01:51:53,120 --> 01:51:55,719
Speaker 13: right correct, Yes, if I am the Los Angeles Lakers.

2149
01:51:56,439 --> 01:51:59,920
Speaker 13: If I'm the seventh seed, do I throw the first

2150
01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:00,639
Speaker 13: playing game?

2151
01:52:00,920 --> 01:52:02,559
Speaker 1: Okay, So here's the deal right now.

2152
01:52:02,800 --> 01:52:05,600
Speaker 13: So since eat seed and avoid the Nuggets.

2153
01:52:05,680 --> 01:52:09,400
Speaker 2: Exactly so again right now, since the Mavericks didn't show

2154
01:52:09,479 --> 01:52:11,560
Speaker 2: up today, the Thunder will be the one seed in

2155
01:52:11,600 --> 01:52:16,240
Speaker 2: the West. The Timberwolves are losing right now by thirteen

2156
01:52:16,320 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 2: and a half and the Nuggets are winning by twelve

2157
01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:21,120
Speaker 2: at the half on the road against the Grizzlies.

2158
01:52:21,760 --> 01:52:24,400
Speaker 1: So if the t Wolves lose and the.

2159
01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:27,080
Speaker 2: Nuggets win, and Okase is already going to be the

2160
01:52:27,120 --> 01:52:29,280
Speaker 2: one seed, that would make the Nuggets the two seed,

2161
01:52:29,680 --> 01:52:33,400
Speaker 2: meaning the winner of the seven to eight game, which

2162
01:52:33,479 --> 01:52:35,200
Speaker 2: right now looks like it's going to be a rematch

2163
01:52:35,280 --> 01:52:38,240
Speaker 2: between the Lakers and the Pelicans. The winner of that

2164
01:52:38,400 --> 01:52:41,000
Speaker 2: game will match up against the Nuggets. That is not

2165
01:52:41,120 --> 01:52:43,000
Speaker 2: a team the Lakers want to see in the first round.

2166
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:44,559
Speaker 2: The Nuggets haven't lost to them in.

2167
01:52:44,600 --> 01:52:46,240
Speaker 1: What three years? Yeah?

2168
01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:49,439
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean well two years. I'm regular season.

2169
01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:51,320
Speaker 2: I guess they beat them last year, but they got

2170
01:52:51,400 --> 01:52:54,280
Speaker 2: swept in the playoffs. They lost every game the Lakers

2171
01:52:54,360 --> 01:52:56,840
Speaker 2: this year to the Nuggets. So you're right now, if

2172
01:52:56,840 --> 01:53:00,200
Speaker 2: they lose the seven eight game, then the Lakers is

2173
01:53:00,200 --> 01:53:02,240
Speaker 2: to play the winner of the nine to ten matchup.

2174
01:53:02,280 --> 01:53:03,960
Speaker 1: But that's not a good deal for them as well.

2175
01:53:04,920 --> 01:53:07,720
Speaker 2: The Kings have owned them this year. And if it's

2176
01:53:07,800 --> 01:53:10,360
Speaker 2: the Warriors, I don't know if you really want to

2177
01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:11,759
Speaker 2: take a shot against the Warriors.

2178
01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:14,920
Speaker 13: I would take the Warriors at home against the Lakers.

2179
01:53:14,960 --> 01:53:17,400
Speaker 2: Look, if you're the Lakers and you have a healthy

2180
01:53:17,520 --> 01:53:20,720
Speaker 2: Lebron James and a healthy Anthony Davis like you have

2181
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:23,760
Speaker 2: right now, any have Hatchamur and you got Reeves and

2182
01:53:23,880 --> 01:53:26,200
Speaker 2: you got you know, d Low, I mean.

2183
01:53:26,760 --> 01:53:29,040
Speaker 1: You shouldn't have to fear the Nuggets. You're gonna have

2184
01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:29,479
Speaker 1: to beat.

2185
01:53:29,360 --> 01:53:31,960
Speaker 13: Them any I'm honestly not of I'm not of the

2186
01:53:32,120 --> 01:53:32,599
Speaker 13: I would.

2187
01:53:32,520 --> 01:53:35,200
Speaker 1: Rather play the Nuggets in the first round, to be honest.

2188
01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:37,720
Speaker 13: And people forget that. Yeah they got swept, but those

2189
01:53:37,760 --> 01:53:39,840
Speaker 13: games were all close until the other games.

2190
01:53:40,160 --> 01:53:42,439
Speaker 2: I would get the Nuggets, you know, if, especially if

2191
01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:44,559
Speaker 2: you've got a game under your belt in the playing round,

2192
01:53:44,960 --> 01:53:47,200
Speaker 2: maybe get a little momentum going into the series.

2193
01:53:47,240 --> 01:53:50,800
Speaker 1: Maybe steal a game in Denver. I'd rolled my dice.

2194
01:53:51,280 --> 01:53:53,040
Speaker 13: I just think the Lakers would beat the Thunder in

2195
01:53:53,040 --> 01:53:55,560
Speaker 13: a playoff series. I really do.

2196
01:53:56,200 --> 01:53:59,920
Speaker 1: Well, maybe, but I mean again, if you're if you're

2197
01:54:00,280 --> 01:54:03,640
Speaker 1: end game is to win the NBA Championship, it's not

2198
01:54:03,840 --> 01:54:07,080
Speaker 1: whether the Lakers are not of the mindset like, wow,

2199
01:54:07,479 --> 01:54:09,280
Speaker 1: let's win a playoff series.

2200
01:54:09,439 --> 01:54:10,720
Speaker 4: No, obviously not.

2201
01:54:10,960 --> 01:54:11,400
Speaker 1: That's not.

2202
01:54:11,800 --> 01:54:15,040
Speaker 3: Well the goal here here, here's reality. With the players

2203
01:54:15,120 --> 01:54:18,040
Speaker 3: they have, they should be able to win any series.

2204
01:54:18,120 --> 01:54:20,280
Speaker 3: But the problem is you look at the regular season.

2205
01:54:20,360 --> 01:54:23,720
Speaker 3: You say, well, then why is their regular season so

2206
01:54:24,000 --> 01:54:27,320
Speaker 3: poor record wise, because for the most part Ad and

2207
01:54:27,439 --> 01:54:29,200
Speaker 3: Lebron have been pretty healthy this year.

2208
01:54:29,360 --> 01:54:32,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean it's because they were mismanaged early

2209
01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:34,920
Speaker 2: in the season. They dug a hole they've been trying

2210
01:54:34,960 --> 01:54:36,400
Speaker 2: to crawl out of it. Plus, by the way, the

2211
01:54:36,440 --> 01:54:39,480
Speaker 2: Western Conference is just loaded this shack all right. On

2212
01:54:39,560 --> 01:54:42,040
Speaker 2: the other side, we'll put a wrap on things for us.

2213
01:54:42,360 --> 01:54:45,800
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harvey, Ri Tronberger, Fox

2214

2216
01:54:56,000 --> 01:55:03,040
Speaker 2: Moncey of course exhausted. Let's hear Moncey's recap of what

2217
01:55:03,160 --> 01:55:04,040
Speaker 2: she's done so fun.

2218
01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:06,760
Speaker 7: I just want there's smoke coming out of my ears, yes,

2219
01:55:06,880 --> 01:55:08,440
Speaker 7: because I.

2220
01:55:08,600 --> 01:55:12,760
Speaker 3: Feel you've been working over time.

2221
01:55:13,680 --> 01:55:14,560
Speaker 9: It's just in bot.

2222
01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,600
Speaker 6: I'm trying to keep it as like simple as possible.

2223
01:55:17,240 --> 01:55:18,200
Speaker 3: To you know what I'm saying.

2224
01:55:18,240 --> 01:55:21,520
Speaker 1: And by the way, trying to solve the three body problem.

2225
01:55:21,720 --> 01:55:22,600
Speaker 9: I already figured it out.

2226
01:55:22,760 --> 01:55:25,560
Speaker 2: Now. You were nice enough to bring some tequila last night.

2227
01:55:25,680 --> 01:55:27,800
Speaker 2: I did, but you didn't drink any well, you know,

2228
01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:30,360
Speaker 2: I was drinking wine. You were drinking wine with me.

2229
01:55:30,560 --> 01:55:32,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, you brought it, and I know, I know, And

2230
01:55:32,200 --> 01:55:34,120
Speaker 7: then I wasn't sure, like you know, if we're going

2231
01:55:34,160 --> 01:55:35,920
Speaker 7: to party till two in the morning or whatnot.

2232
01:55:35,960 --> 01:55:37,880
Speaker 9: So I just brought the tequila to be safe. But

2233
01:55:38,000 --> 01:55:39,640
Speaker 9: now next time I'm invited, it'll be there.

2234
01:55:39,680 --> 01:55:41,800
Speaker 2: Well, it is there, It is there waiting for you.

2235
01:55:41,840 --> 01:55:44,720
Speaker 2: A great job as always, Moncey, Thank you so much.

2236
01:55:44,840 --> 01:55:48,560
Speaker 2: Bo of course, uh Mann. In the situation, we're just

2237
01:55:48,600 --> 01:55:52,000
Speaker 2: talking about the Lakers situation here. So if the Lakers win,

2238
01:55:52,640 --> 01:55:55,440
Speaker 2: they'll have a rematch against the Pelicans in New Orleans

2239
01:55:55,520 --> 01:55:57,520
Speaker 2: in the seven eight game, and then if they win

2240
01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:00,680
Speaker 2: that game, most likely right now we'll be playing the

2241
01:56:00,760 --> 01:56:01,520
Speaker 2: Denver Nuggets.

2242
01:56:02,120 --> 01:56:04,360
Speaker 13: Well, you know what has been on my mind all day. Actually,

2243
01:56:05,360 --> 01:56:08,040
Speaker 13: I guess my invite for your house last time must

2244
01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:08,880
Speaker 13: have got lost in the realm.

2245
01:56:11,000 --> 01:56:12,960
Speaker 1: We space it out, that's what we did.

2246
01:56:14,520 --> 01:56:16,200
Speaker 4: There was not enough space for both.

2247
01:56:16,880 --> 01:56:20,280
Speaker 2: Well, well, of course you could do what Iowa Sam

2248
01:56:20,400 --> 01:56:22,000
Speaker 2: did and just invite himself.

2249
01:56:22,120 --> 01:56:23,400
Speaker 13: Yeah, that sounds like Sam.

2250
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:24,960
Speaker 1: Is exactly what Sam did.

2251
01:56:25,320 --> 01:56:29,000
Speaker 2: My over, Well, what happen was my sister who has

2252
01:56:29,080 --> 01:56:32,560
Speaker 2: lived in Iowa for forty years, the valley girl from

2253
01:56:32,640 --> 01:56:34,720
Speaker 2: California to move to Iowa.

2254
01:56:35,160 --> 01:56:37,320
Speaker 1: He wanted to meet her, you know, and so.

2255
01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:38,560
Speaker 4: What was I gonna argue with that.

2256
01:56:38,760 --> 01:56:40,520
Speaker 13: That's a good excuse from Sam. That's creative.

2257
01:56:40,720 --> 01:56:41,600
Speaker 1: So that was very good.

2258
01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:45,800
Speaker 2: And I'm very happy that Chris has a new fridge,

2259
01:56:46,080 --> 01:56:47,600
Speaker 2: which was a big story this week for.

2260
01:56:47,800 --> 01:56:49,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to come over to your place.

2261
01:56:49,040 --> 01:56:50,120
Speaker 10: I just want to go out for beers.

2262
01:56:50,320 --> 01:56:52,760
Speaker 1: Yes, and we are going to do that eventually, We're

2263
01:56:52,960 --> 01:56:53,560
Speaker 1: going to get all.

2264
01:56:53,560 --> 01:56:55,040
Speaker 10: That nice conversation at liquor.

2265
01:56:55,080 --> 01:56:56,200
Speaker 1: But yes, I do have a fridge.

2266
01:56:56,280 --> 01:56:59,040
Speaker 10: Finally, after my landlord finally found the part of the

2267
01:56:59,160 --> 01:57:01,520
Speaker 10: least said they don't have to paid to repair my fridge.

2268
01:57:01,720 --> 01:57:04,080
Speaker 1: Okay, right, so you had to dig into your own

2269
01:57:04,120 --> 01:57:05,280
Speaker 1: pocket to get that fridge.

2270
01:57:05,320 --> 01:57:08,520
Speaker 10: Now, God blessed Low's in twelve months, same as cash financing.

2271
01:57:08,560 --> 01:57:10,240
Speaker 1: I guess, well, all your goodies are there.

2272
01:57:10,280 --> 01:57:12,160
Speaker 2: I don't have to worry about fridge because I never

2273
01:57:12,240 --> 01:57:15,680
Speaker 2: have any food in my place period any accurate by

2274
01:57:15,760 --> 01:57:21,200
Speaker 2: the way, So Scotty Scheffler and Colin Morikawa were tied

2275
01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:25,080
Speaker 2: at minus seven going into the ninth hole. They walked

2276
01:57:25,080 --> 01:57:27,760
Speaker 2: away from the ninth green Scheffler at minus eight and

2277
01:57:27,840 --> 01:57:33,200
Speaker 2: Maricawa at minus five. Scheffler birdied, Moricawa double bogied. So

2278
01:57:33,400 --> 01:57:36,160
Speaker 2: Scheffler now is one shot lead over Oberg and Homa.

2279
01:57:36,280 --> 01:57:40,400
Speaker 2: Max Homa, who's never done anything in majors like he's He's.

2280
01:57:40,320 --> 01:57:42,520
Speaker 1: Won several times on the PGA Tour.

2281
01:57:43,080 --> 01:57:46,320
Speaker 2: I think he finally had his first top ten at

2282
01:57:46,360 --> 01:57:49,560
Speaker 2: the Open Championship last year. I guess he tied for tenth.

2283
01:57:50,240 --> 01:57:52,200
Speaker 2: We've been waiting for a guy like Homa to show

2284
01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:54,400
Speaker 2: up in a major, and he's doing it right now.

2285
01:57:54,640 --> 01:57:58,120
Speaker 2: So Scheffler with that one shot lead as they have

2286
01:57:58,240 --> 01:58:01,160
Speaker 2: made the turn and head to the back nine of

2287
01:58:01,240 --> 01:58:02,760
Speaker 2: the Masters, which.

2288
01:58:02,600 --> 01:58:04,320
Speaker 1: Is always a throw, always a throw.

2289
01:58:04,480 --> 01:58:07,120
Speaker 3: I mean, can you imagine the knee knocking that goes

2290
01:58:07,200 --> 01:58:09,840
Speaker 3: on when you realize you're at the top of the leaderboard.

2291
01:58:10,480 --> 01:58:13,760
Speaker 3: You know, the crowds are now, I mean they're it's

2292
01:58:13,800 --> 01:58:16,600
Speaker 3: all distilled down to that final group making its way.

2293
01:58:17,360 --> 01:58:18,640
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, I don't know.

2294
01:58:19,160 --> 01:58:22,680
Speaker 2: I don't know how anybody performs under the that's where

2295
01:58:22,720 --> 01:58:24,800
Speaker 2: you do that. I mean, when you when you're standing

2296
01:58:24,840 --> 01:58:26,720
Speaker 2: over one of those putt. Now, this happened a couple

2297
01:58:26,720 --> 01:58:28,680
Speaker 2: of years ago with Scheffler when he was trying to

2298
01:58:28,720 --> 01:58:31,560
Speaker 2: wrap up and did wrap up his first Masters championship.

2299
01:58:32,360 --> 01:58:35,120
Speaker 1: He was feeling it on eighteen. Oh yeah, try.

2300
01:58:35,320 --> 01:58:37,880
Speaker 2: I mean, he had the luxury of a couple extra putts,

2301
01:58:37,920 --> 01:58:43,800
Speaker 2: but he missed one. Was like wo okay, breathe, breathe.

2302
01:58:44,120 --> 01:58:44,320
Speaker 10: Yeah.

2303
01:58:45,080 --> 01:58:47,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know how they did. I mean that

2304
01:58:47,840 --> 01:58:50,800
Speaker 2: that whole like, if you have like a five foot putt,

2305
01:58:50,920 --> 01:58:52,600
Speaker 2: you know you have to make it. And this was

2306
01:58:52,720 --> 01:58:55,640
Speaker 2: Tiger in his heyday. Man. You remember the putty rolled

2307
01:58:55,640 --> 01:58:58,400
Speaker 2: in at Tory Pines in the eight US Open to

2308
01:58:58,640 --> 01:59:01,320
Speaker 2: force the playoff. I mean that holes guy looked.

2309
01:59:01,160 --> 01:59:04,160
Speaker 1: Like a beaty hole, right yeah, and he just drained it.

2310
01:59:04,400 --> 01:59:05,760
Speaker 1: And that was the beauty of it.

2311
01:59:06,120 --> 01:59:09,000
Speaker 2: Whether or not we'll ever see Tiger again again. If

2312
01:59:09,000 --> 01:59:11,200
Speaker 2: you missed, and he shot seventy seven, tod He actually

2313
01:59:11,240 --> 01:59:14,680
Speaker 2: finished last among the golfers that made the cut this year.

2314
01:59:14,960 --> 01:59:17,280
Speaker 2: Roy McElroy, by the way, another year of not winning

2315
01:59:17,320 --> 01:59:20,800
Speaker 2: the Masters, A very forgettable trip to Augusta for him.

2316
01:59:20,920 --> 01:59:23,800
Speaker 2: But if it's at it for Tiger, guess what he

2317
01:59:24,120 --> 01:59:27,440
Speaker 2: owes the game nothing. I just you know, I hope

2318
01:59:27,480 --> 01:59:28,160
Speaker 2: it's not the end.

2319
01:59:28,280 --> 01:59:30,600
Speaker 3: But but yeah, like you said earlier in the show,

2320
01:59:30,680 --> 01:59:33,120
Speaker 3: this could have been our last chance to see Tiger

2321
01:59:33,160 --> 01:59:33,879
Speaker 3: out of Masters.

2322
01:59:34,000 --> 01:59:36,560
Speaker 4: That's very sad. But thanks for the memories. If that's

2323
01:59:36,640 --> 01:59:37,040
Speaker 4: the case.

2324
01:59:37,440 --> 01:59:39,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So we'll keep us updated.

2325
01:59:39,880 --> 01:59:42,600
Speaker 2: Without Without us, you'll not know what's going to happen

2326
01:59:42,640 --> 01:59:45,960
Speaker 2: in the NBA and the Master, So keep it right here.
