For being satirical? 332 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: So stupid, so so ridiculous. It's the world we're in 333 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: the world we live in. A sign of the time, 334 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: it's a good beingo card. Does this rival the Lebron 335 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: James Bingo card? Oh? The Lebron one is great? Yeah, 336 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: theve I love that one. That will become a staple. 337 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna say that Lebron every time the Lakers lose, 338 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to my Lebron Bingo card and the excuse, 339 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: Yeah Lebron. Who's the one of our co workers? Is 340 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: a several big Lebron fanboys? Uh, we have a lot. 341 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: The guy he does a weekend show here to some 342 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: podcasting stuff, did TV? Oh Jason McIntyre, Yeah McIntyre. I 343 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 1: don't really know him. I've met him a few times, 344 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: but he's got to be like the biggest Lebron fanboy 345 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: that I know that works in the company. Right, I 346 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: think he would admit to it, right, I think he 347 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: would admit to it based on his comments. He is 348 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: really right there, and I think he cares more about 349 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: Lebron and Lebron's family. Now, I think so Berard's up there, 350 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: brus Sorry, it is another one he's on. They like 351 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: him a lot, fortunately me and like Rob Parker, we're 352 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: the truth tellers here. You guys are way on the 353 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: other side of the fence on this one. Yeah, we're 354 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,679 Speaker 1: are the truth tellers on that. But yeah, the Lebron 355 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: If you didn't see that, a listener actually sent this 356 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: to me. I guess a big one around the internet. 357 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: But it's excuses for Lebron by bronze sexuals Bingo. Now 358 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: did you that's good? Did you get the athletic reporter 359 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: to respond to your tweet about him just foaming at 360 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: the mouth? Did he respond to me? I don't know what. 361 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: I was curious if he did. Oh, I I don't know. 362 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 1: I didn't check. I mean, yeah, that guy was. He's said, 363 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 1: Lebron's got nothing to play for now because the fans 364 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: aren't at the games in Orlando. He's explained that's why 365 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: he lost. That's that's good. But that the Lebron Bingo card, 366 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: the one that the ones that are my favorite on 367 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: that are Uh, he had a triple double? What more 368 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: couldn't I love that, or thirty five years old, seven 369 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: year seventeen, that's why gron was hurt. You know, all 370 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:10,959 Speaker 1: those things are hilarious. Uh, just just great. Uh. You know, 371 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: I'm grateful that someone came up with this because this 372 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: at least gets to distract you from from attacking every 373 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: good athlete in the value of the sun, like you've 374 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: gone on this onslaught of the last, like you've taken 375 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: unnecessary shots at Kyler Murray and Devin Booker. Not unnecessary. 376 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: I just report the facts. When when Pro Football Focus 377 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: comes out and says Kyler Murray was the thirty second 378 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: ranked quarterback and I got guys like you, they're giving 379 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: him a shoulder rub in a bubble bath, and I'm like, 380 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: wait a minute, it's a disconnect between reality and how 381 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: this guy played. He played like his height, He played 382 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: small small ball in Arizona. Kyler to be playing second 383 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 1: base in baseball somewhere. I would have taken him last 384 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: year over at Jared goth That's for sure an idiot. 385 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: Um that's j Goff let a team to a super Bowl. 386 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: Jared Goff beat Drew Brees and the Saints in their 387 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: building in the playoffs. What is Kyler, little Man Murray 388 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: the Garden him done. He's a Heisman Trophy winner. Um, 389 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: that's not a gimmick offense. At Olklohol the place back. 390 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: Everyone was winning the Heisman at Oklahoma in those days. 391 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: He had Baker May that was heisman. You please, boy, 392 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: when you got against Devin Booker. By the way, the 393 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: guy runs some some gravy treans and I know the guys, 394 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: guys puts up empty stats. I'm like the NBA. See. 395 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: This is why I try to tell you, because you're 396 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: you're like this, You're the low information, low information fan. 397 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: You don't understand the nuance, right, you don't understand the 398 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: nuance of breaking down an NBA game. And I learned 399 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: from the legends back in the day how to properly 400 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: break down an NBA game. But you can't handle that. 401 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: You can't handle the truth. Man, as Tony Bruno would 402 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: say back in the back in the old days of 403 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. But but no, I mean you don't 404 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: get that just because you have the gaudy stat line 405 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: does not mean that you have played a complete game 406 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: and deserve to be fond O. I'm well aware of that. 407 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: There's no you are not. There's guys like Kevin Love 408 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 1: and Alex Rodriguez when he was in Texas and in 409 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: Seattle to come to mind that the stat stuff for 410 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: his I get that. I don't think you do, but 411 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: I don't think so you failed to acknowledge that Booker 412 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: led a Phoenix team. Ain't no in the bubble. They 413 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: covered the spread eight times. That's a young played the schedule. 414 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: Schule be as soft as it is right now. I 415 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 1: merely pointed out that the Sun's does not prove that 416 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 1: they're they're on the come and they're gonna be a 417 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: great team next year. It's nothing. It was a it 418 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: was a one off situation until they do it again. 419 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: They played such shitty basketball the first part of the 420 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: year that even going eight no, they still couldn't get 421 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. Well, how about that because Damian Lillard 422 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: didn't even want to go to the bubble. How about that? 423 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: Like quite a remarkable turnaround. The guy did not want 424 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: to go into the bubble and play because he didn't 425 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,360 Speaker 1: think they qualified for the playoffs. They found a way 426 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: to get in, and he was lighting it up prior 427 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: to the postseason starting. And now they've gotten off to 428 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: a good start in round number one. So yeah, yeah, 429 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: well Lillard was he raised hotly hell and all that. 430 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: He was complaining and you know, listen, everyone complains. Yeah, 431 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: he was complaining. I thought that whole thing was ridiculous. 432 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: And the Blazers they're not a good team. They should 433 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,479 Speaker 1: beat the Lakers. And we hope they will beat the Lakers. 434 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: What I mean, we we hope they will. Like Who's 435 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 1: the Wei, be sure to catch live editions of The 436 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 1: Ben Maller Show week days at two am Eastern eleven 437 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: pm Pacific. Um. The people like Wheelers. Majority of Wheeler's 438 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: not rooting for Portland to beat l A. Wheelers is 439 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: a Wheelers not on this, But I'm talking about the hard, 440 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: hard working, salt to the Earth people. I want to 441 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: go back to the box score thing because and I say, 442 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: the low information fan. Yes, you know. One of the 443 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 1: problems with people they tend to think in extremes like oh, 444 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: you put up the great status and he was a 445 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 1: great game moment because that's easier to understand because you're 446 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: not that bright nuance. It kind of messes with your understanding. 447 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 1: Can be frustrating and say, oh, how could you say 448 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 1: you didn't play well, well the last three minutes of 449 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: the game when it was anyone's game and he puked 450 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: all over the court. That's that's the nuance. You can't 451 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: handle that. You gotta complete the mission. Like when you're 452 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: when you're flying a battle plane in combat. There you're flying, 453 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: you're flying a fighter jet and you have you know, 454 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 1: seven or eight great bombing runs and then you get 455 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 1: shot down because you made a mistake. Are you gonna 456 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: say that was a wonderful day. No, you gotta complete that. 457 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: You gotta get back safely. How about that? Comparing Lebron 458 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: James to a fighter pilot, Yes, successful fighter pilot touching down. Yes, 459 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: it is the comparison. So why would you First of all, 460 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 1: there's four quarters in the game. So I I understand 461 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: the how the game is amplified and the closing it's 462 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: of a game, But to get the game to where 463 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 1: it is, where it's competitive or clothes, I mean, you 464 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: said it yourself. That's like, you know, let me run, 465 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: me run the New York Marathon. I'm going twenty five miles, 466 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: maybe I'll even go twenty six miles, but that last 467 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: point two miles, you know what I took you there? Finish, 468 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: eat yourself. I'm done. No, but I'm gonna wash my 469 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: hands with it. That's when you're you're enmurging that this 470 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: is what a loser you are to lose his mentality. Guests, 471 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: I'm a better fan than you. I'm a better fan 472 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: than you. High standards, you have, low standards I have. 473 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: I have big expectations. That's why I have brought you. 474 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 1: Know you don't. That's why you sound like I've carried 475 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: you from terrestrial radar to the digital realm. So I 476 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: have expectations, the feelings, the the ideas we gotta carry. 477 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: We gotta put that on that fifth hour Bingo card. Greg, 478 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: you gotta update the baby card. You gotta get rid 479 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: of Justin. Put that on there, get one of these 480 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 1: other things. Put Finny on there. Yeah, you can do 481 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: that way, Like, come on, Mattie, you can't say you 482 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: just said the other night with Philadelphia and Boston like 483 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 1: they looked so disinterested after they at a six point 484 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 1: lead at the end of the first quarter. The ideas 485 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: to get and the ideas to get out of the 486 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: blocks and then progressively get to where you want to 487 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: be in the fourth quarter. You can only do so 488 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: much if you're one guy not you can only do 489 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,719 Speaker 1: so much. Let me get my violin, the smallest violin. 490 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: You're a Lebron family I didn't really know Alebron fan boy. No, 491 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: I I agree that he should be maxing out more 492 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: as opposed to defer in every other guy that he's 493 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: gotten that roster because those guys can't shoot for Dick 494 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: from outside, and so he needs to take over games 495 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: like he could when he was with Miami or Lebron 496 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 1: can't shoot from the outside. I know that you have 497 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 1: you seen. Well, there's a great hold on. I say, 498 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: there's a great stat and I got it. Now you're 499 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: gonna make me go to my archive here. I didn't 500 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: even use this on the air. That's a bad job 501 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: by me. Why not? Uh? What's that? Why not? Were 502 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: you stand backing it for another show? No? No, you 503 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: know we ran out of time because I overprepared guests. 504 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: I know this is something you're not familiar with. Do 505 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 1: you When do you over prepare? You run monologues longer 506 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 1: when the Lakers lose than you do when the Clippers lose, 507 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: Like you cut your monologues and I did a great monologue. 508 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: You know, I don't get credit for it when I 509 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: ripped the Clippers and I tore into Paul George and 510 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: the Clippers when it was it was a two possession 511 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: game or whatever. Actually not even it was a one 512 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:27,120 Speaker 1: score it's eighty three. The other night in Game two 513 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: against Dallas, with two minutes and thirty eight seconds to 514 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: go in the third quarter, and they got outscored by eleven. 515 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: That was the game. They just stopped playing and instead 516 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: of being a one score game going to the fourth quarter, 517 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: the Clippers played like dog food and ended up uh 518 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: ended up down by thirteen and they never got back 519 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,959 Speaker 1: in the game. But Lebron check this out. Now, this 520 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: is not including the game on Thursday night, So this 521 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:53,959 Speaker 1: is only Lebron through the first part of the bubble 522 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: and the first game against the Blazers. Lebron has become 523 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons. Lebron James has become Ben Simmons. Here's my evidence. Okay, alright, Lebron. 524 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: Outside the restricted area, you know what the restricted area 525 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: guests going. You're a basketball guy, do you know what 526 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: restricted areas? Tell the guy in Fargo what a restricted 527 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: areas because he might not know the restricted areas. The 528 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: paint and yes, the lane right near the basket. Right, 529 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 1: Lebron outside of the restricted area, outside the paint is 530 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 1: shooting twenty eight percent. Inside the bubble, he's a less 531 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: than thirty. That's Ben Simmons. Ben Simmons is fine if 532 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: he's in the paint. If he's outside the paint, forget 533 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: about it. Forget about it. Well, you know what it 534 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: could be. It's great. You know what that is. That's 535 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: solid NBA information. That's what Tony Bruner would say back 536 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: in the day. Now I think he said knowledge. He 537 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: would say knowledge. I think I think there's a good 538 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: explanation for the lack of shooting efficiency that Lebron's sustaining 539 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: or last you know, to three weeks. It's because there's 540 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: no fans in attendance. There's no there's no there's no 541 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: there's no juice. There's no juice in the building. Obviously. Now, 542 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: do you feel embarrassed by the fact that the Clippers 543 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: lost game to to No, no, no, no, there's inferior team. 544 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: That's what the media, the mainstream media, your colleagues, were 545 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: looking for a sweep or a five game series between 546 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 1: the Clippers and the Mavericks. This I'm not I'm not 547 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: concerned because it'll just make it that much more enjoyable 548 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: when they finally win. Like you have the best players 549 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: in the NBA, and they were nullified, like they were 550 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: nullified on the fourth, but it wasn't really. Patrick Beverley 551 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: did not play. And he's really he's the glue guy. 552 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: Patrick Beverley learned his name, learned his name son, Patrick Guy. 553 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: Never Junkyard Dog, the guy guys that Junkyard Dog. He's 554 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: the heart and soul. He's the motivational guy out on 555 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: the court. Now he's junk of it. That you got 556 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: that right, that's you know, you got the guys and 557 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: everyone loves he's old school Patrick Beverley. He's the instigator. 558 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: And those those punk guys on the Maverick, those thugs 559 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: like Porzingis on the Mavericks got who got reacted, and 560 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: they reacted to the to the instigator, the Patrick Beverley 561 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: and some of those other guys there. Beverly sparks the fuse. 562 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,959 Speaker 1: That's what Pat Patrick Beverley does. I love those pesky guys. 563 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,959 Speaker 1: Every championship team has to have some agitator on it, 564 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: and Patrick Beverley is one of those guys. Clippers have 565 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: a lot of them. Fortunately, Uh, these these guys that 566 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: work as lighter fluid, and I like. I like those 567 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: kind of guys on my team. I like. I don't 568 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: like him on the other team, but I like him 569 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: on my team. I think they got pushed around in 570 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: Game two. Did get pushed around all they weren't interested. 571 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: I didn't take the Mavericks seriously. And if you don't 572 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: take an opponent seriously, you gotta compete. You gotta play 573 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: with energy the team. Remember the great Bill Fitch, Bill Fitch, 574 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame coach. When I was covering the Clippers 575 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: and those morbid days, and Coach Fitch whould coach Larry 576 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: Bird and Elijah Want all these greats in his NBA 577 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,719 Speaker 1: career with the Celtics and the Rockets, and they had 578 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,479 Speaker 1: to coach dog teams like the Clippers and the Nets 579 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: at the end. They were terrible in those days. But um, 580 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,479 Speaker 1: but Bill Fitch, he he used to talk about the 581 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: fact that to win in the NBA, and this is 582 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: years ago before all these gayzy statistics and all that, 583 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 1: he said, you win the hustle stats in basketball, but 584 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: just play with more energy. And if you play with 585 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: more energy, you're gonna win the hustle stats and and 586 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: hustle stats. If you're not familiar, if you don't know 587 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: what that means, that is essentially, um, you know, drawing charges, 588 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: deflecting loose balls, getting rebounds, setting screens, getting the fifty 589 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: fifty balls, all that kind of stuff, all that that stuff. 590 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: In fact, the Clippers were so bad they never actually 591 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: won the games in those days very often, so they 592 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: put a hustle board up in the arena. It was 593 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: the most cheeseball thing at the sports arena. But I 594 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: remember they put a hustle board up because Fitches, like 595 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: his mindset was, we're probably gonna win the game, but 596 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: if we hustle, we'll have a chance and uh, and 597 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: so maybe we'll win the hustle board. Yeah, it's painful. 598 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 1: It was. It was, but it is true if you 599 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: watch an NBA game, even if you know nothing about 600 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: the teams that are playing, the team that is deflecting 601 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: passes and Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant say hands on 602 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: balls right, hands on balls right. That is the key blocks, steals, rebounds, 603 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: uh and all that contested shots, charges drawn. That's the 604 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: kind of stuff that frustrates frustrates the opponent, and you're 605 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: tipping passes away that bothers them, that cuts under their skin. 606 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: And and when you're on defense and you're able to 607 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: do that, and that sets the tone. You fight through 608 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: screens and all that stuff, all those little things. Yeah, 609 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: and that reminds me of the early two thousand Lakers. 610 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you have like Derek Fisher, and Ron Harper 611 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: and Glenn Rice, and Rick Fox and Ori and Kobe 612 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: and Shack. Like I could see that this is this 613 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: equates to why they were so successful. You know, I 614 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: can only hope that Clippers can be reminded of something like, Yeah, 615 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: little Clipper hater, you were. You know, why don't you 616 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: clean up your own house? The Lakers went out and 617 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: puked all over in Game one. Now this is a series, 618 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: and we don't know what happened in Game two as 619 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: we're doing this, but I promise you the Trail Blazers 620 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: are not intimidated by the La La Lakers. I didn't 621 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: have them getting out of the second round. To be 622 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: frank with you, I have Houston the Clippers in the 623 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: Western Conference finals. Players is showing some basketball knowledge, all right, 624 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: So let's get to the roaring twenties, if you will 625 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: here so as a Fox Sports Radio celebrating this week 626 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: it's twenty anniversary, twenty years of continuous network sports radio 627 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: broadcasting doing God's work here behind the microphones of Fox 628 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Now. I have been asked guestcount by several 629 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: Brigadier generals about the early days of Fox Sports Radio, 630 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: and I'm one of the few that experienced that in 631 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: the first first part of the run of Fox Sports Radio. 632 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:00,719 Speaker 1: And I've been fortunate to be you with the company 633 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: for most of the time except for six months and 634 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: twenty six days. Not that we're counting, No, I didn't. 635 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: I didn't count. I just just just random. Um. I 636 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: could have said seven months, but it wouldn't be correct. 637 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: Six months and twenty six days is not seven months. 638 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 1: It's six months in twenty six days. It's not six 639 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,439 Speaker 1: months because it's twenty six days. More than six months 640 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 1: is closer to seven months. So it's twenty it's six 641 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: months and twenty six days. So anyway, I I I 642 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: will give you what I remember. Gonna give a brief 643 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 1: for a synopsis of what I remember. Alright, So when 644 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 1: the network launched, now, the network started, I was hired 645 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: about a month after the network originally launched. And this 646 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: when it When Fox Sports Radio launched, it was a 647 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: big ESPN Radio was like the only real game in town, 648 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: I think was it One on one sports and Sporting 649 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: News Radio were around still in those days, I believe, 650 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: but they were secondary operations. It was ESPN Radio at 651 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 1: the time was the eight hundred pound guerrilla in this 652 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: worts radio game. And so this was a originally and 653 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: it still is a conglomeration between Fox Sports Television and 654 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: at the time it was Clear Channel, which has become 655 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: I Heart Media. That's how long ago this was. And 656 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: and so obviously I was a low man on the 657 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 1: totem pole. But I remember meeting with Tom Lee, who 658 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: was the programming man behind Fox Sports Radio when it launched, 659 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 1: and and e Z and all these people, and they 660 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,720 Speaker 1: were filling out the lineup card much like a bingo card. 661 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: And they had no weekend programming past like six o'clock. 662 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,439 Speaker 1: I don't even think they had weekend programming for part 663 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: of the day part on the weekend. They only had 664 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: shows during the week and they didn't have a full lineup, 665 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: and so that worked to my advantage. They hired me 666 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: originally at Fox Sports Radio. I was hired as a 667 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: utility guy. I was an update guy. I would do 668 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: weekend fill in hosting and uh, you know, plug and 669 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: play guy, plug and player. I play me anywhere I 670 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: can play. I got a million glaw was and and 671 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,680 Speaker 1: all that. So that's what they hired me for originally, 672 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: and in fact it was it was so early on 673 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: the studios that are now twenty almost twenty years old. 674 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: We didn't have they weren't completed. They were still doing construction. 675 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: I remember when i'd go down to take a tour 676 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: and I had to wear a hard hat because they 677 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: were still doing construction because it used to be at 678 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 1: Denny's and they were putting the thing together when it launched, 679 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 1: and we were broadcasting from the Michael Reagan studios, the 680 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: adopted son a president, Ronald Reagan, and he had a 681 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 1: syndicated show at the Premiere then Premiere Radio Networks, and 682 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,720 Speaker 1: so I remember that. I also remember my first shift, 683 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: my first update shift. The person that showed me the 684 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: ropes at Fox Sports Radio was a just an update 685 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 1: guy that occasionally worked on the morning show named Andrew Siciliano, 686 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,840 Speaker 1: who has gone on and done some big things for 687 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: himself at the NFL Network and Direct TV and all that. 688 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,240 Speaker 1: But Siciliano was the guy that showed me the ropes 689 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 1: and how to do the updates and work the equipment 690 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. So so I remember that, and uh, 691 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 1: and then you know, I randomly remember some of the 692 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: early shows. UM. The first person I did a talk 693 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 1: show with it Fox was Jason I. We we did 694 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: a weekend show together, myself and Jason Smith. We had 695 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 1: a weekend show we did together, and I remember that. 696 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: And also I remember like one of my early update 697 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: shifts UM was in like January of oh one, so 698 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: it was a couple of months after I had started, 699 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: but it was a Saturday, and I remember it. It 700 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: was sometime in January of twenty one. But the the 701 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: plane carrying the Oklahoma State basketball team, one of the 702 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,400 Speaker 1: planes and with a couple of like players and a 703 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: broadcaster crashed and they all died. And all I remember 704 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 1: having to I was like, I was going, I don't 705 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: want any breaking news to happen, you know, I was 706 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: have smooth shift, And I remember the U having to 707 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: report on that. How that's like then obviously been working 708 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: on nine eleven was another one, the Boston Marathon bombings, 709 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: and a couple of years ago. I used to have have 710 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:57,800 Speaker 1: been more than a couple of years now, So I 711 00:37:57,840 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: have been random things that you were on the radio 712 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,280 Speaker 1: for that you remember. But it's been it's been interesting, 713 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 1: and uh it's been it's been fun. A lot of 714 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 1: people that Gascon does not respect that worked here, like 715 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: Tony Bruno, Bruce Jacobs, Mike North.

We 719 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:26,439 Speaker 1: get Craig on, Yeah, Mark Patrick. Craig Kitchen was the 720 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: executive at Premier Networks who ran the joint and is 721 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: a big powerful radio executive, which I think is why 722 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: you want him on. I believe that's why you wanted 723 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: I met him once. Um, I actually met him once, 724 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 1: and I think I asked I met him several times 725 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:41,319 Speaker 1: at parties. Well, yeah, I've never met him like in 726 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: that setting, but I met him here once and I 727 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: think I either asked you or Tom Looney about him, 728 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: and uh, one of you were speaking glowingly about it. Oh, 729 00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:55,640 Speaker 1: he's great. Craig Kitchen is wonderful. Yeah, I don't know 730 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: how even most I say most, but a lot of 731 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 1: these radio executives, like higher really higher up corporate muckety monks, 732 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 1: just they don't get the business. Like Craig got it. 733 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,880 Speaker 1: He got it. He was relatable to talent. He looked 734 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 1: out for the people that are on this side of 735 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: the microphone. A lot of the people that are in 736 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: management only care about the people that are in the 737 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: sales department. I don't really care about the people on 738 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: the air that much. But yeah, Craig was wonderful. And 739 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: the one guy I wish I could have met and 740 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: obviously is not around, is the one that you speak 741 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 1: about highly is was Andy Andy Ashwood Andrew Ashore wish Yeah, 742 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: Andrew Ashwood, who was legend in San Antonio radio. And yeah, 743 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 1: he was great. I was upset I every once so 744 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: while I go back, and there was a memorial that 745 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,919 Speaker 1: they put on somebody put on YouTube from his when 746 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 1: he passed and it showed his career and he was 747 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: a d J I think in Phoenix or Milwaukee. I 748 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: think it was Phoenix though, and his on air name, 749 00:39:55,160 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: Andrew Ashwood was b J. Hunter. Was his on their name, 750 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: and uh, it was just funny, you know, obviously as 751 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: different times. Now, of course, oh you know, I'm offended 752 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: by that. We can't have that. But back in those days, 753 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: in the wild days of radio in the seventies or 754 00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 1: the early eighties, you could do that. And he ended 755 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: up becoming a radio executive. And uh, and you know 756 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: there's another guy. He started on this side of the 757 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 1: microphone and then crossed over. So you're like, you have 758 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: a different perspective than if you don't have that that experience. 759 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: There are some that you know, So there's some people 760 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 1: I've worked for that didn't get on the air that 761 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: still get it, but they're far a few between. Now. 762 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: I was reading I was reading something, um a few 763 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: days congratulations, you were reading something this is a big 764 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: accomplish a few days ago, and uh, I was. I 765 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: was shocked at the individual that said this. But this individual, 766 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: talking about the network and Fox Sports Radio said I'm 767 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,560 Speaker 1: a big believer that a chain is only as strong 768 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 1: as its weakest link. It's a team effort at Fox 769 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, from management on air, behind the scenes, support staff, 770 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,439 Speaker 1: all the above, and it goes that is an absolutely 771 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: profound statement a great statement. What a fucking liar you are. 772 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 1: What a fucking you're talking about it. That's an accurate call. 773 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: You're saying that was that was taken out of context. 774 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying? Yeah, I think you. I 775 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 1: think I was looking out for the little guy. If 776 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 1: not my theory, but people I work with it, they 777 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: work hard and they have desire and ambition. I'm a 778 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: big ambition guy. I believe an ambition. Now, show up 779 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: Coughlin standard time, right when you coach the giants, you know, 780 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: show up early, work hard, take pride in your work right, 781 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: have a little fire in your belly all that.

He said, you've got to outwork the horse, 786 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 1: and if you do that, I will defend you. I 787 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: will have your back no matter what. You have that determined. Now, 788 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: unfortunately there's a lot of people who don't have that, 789 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 1: and uh, for that I just attacked. But but the 790 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 1: rest of the people that many of them do the 791 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,320 Speaker 1: hard work.

He's gone on to bigger and better things. 820 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: Bob Garrets on a day part during the day, which 821 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 1: is more important. Nobody cares about overnight or night radio, 822 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: but Bob Garret works on a day part that's important. 823 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 1: TV guys. He's working with, not some lowly radio overnight guy. 824 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 1: When did we need to have the Mallard tree blossom 825 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 1: a little bit? The Mallard tree is great. Many of 826 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 1: these people have gone on and done wonderful things. I 827 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 1: don't know what you're talking about, but try to try 828 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: to get a little resiliency in your game. Plenty. I 829 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 1: tried a little bit, a little bit, a little bounce 830 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,840 Speaker 1: back ability we like to call it. There. It's like 831 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 1: my man Victor Break used to say back in the day, 832 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: the bamboo that bends is stronger than the oak that resists. 833 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 1: Oh boy, it's Japanese haiku from Vic the Brick. It's true. 834 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 1: Be like the bamboo, bend like the bamboo. And I'm 835 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 1: I'm like a prize fighter. I got a tough chin. 836 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: They call me guest on Bamboo Benny. That's what they 837 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 1: call me, Bamboo Benny. You're fucking embarrassing right now. I 838 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: don't think twenty years that's a long time to be 839 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,240 Speaker 1: out of network. That's h that is. I am stunned. 840 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: I can't believe it. I don't know. I you know what, 841 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: it's it's great. Somebody was asking me about that too, 842 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,839 Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't know. I never even thought. 843 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 1: I was like, I just believe in that cliche day 844 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 1: by day and all that in by inch, which is 845 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 1: your philosophy. But yeah, just you know, one step at 846 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: a time, keep your head down. Yeah, apparently it works. 847 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,360 Speaker 1: I remember this network from when I was when I 848 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,400 Speaker 1: was a teenager because I was stopped. I was a 849 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 1: big friend of job Jim Rome stop. Because Jim Rome 850 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 1: would have his his show. It would be played on 851 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: repeat in San Diego, so whenever I drive down with 852 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: my family had listened to Rome in the morning time, 853 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 1: and then when we drove back from San Diego it 854 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 1: was on in the afternoon time. So well, Rome would 855 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 1: in the early days, Rome was on the network, but 856 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't say Fox Sports Radio. Why um, because he had 857 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: he was on ESPN affiliates and things like that, and 858 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: so there was a conflict. So even though Fox Sports 859 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: Radio carried the Jim Rome Show, he would say Premier Networks. 860 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 1: So he never I don't he ever said Fox Sports Rade. 861 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,319 Speaker 1: Here's another fun fact. This is the twentieth anniversary. Fox 862 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 1: Sports Radio had a deal with w f A n 863 00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 1: SO for weekend programming with Mike and the mad Dog 864 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 1: doing shows, not together. But one day Russo would do 865 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: a show and the other day Francessa would do a show. 866 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: And as I remember, and maybe I'm wrong on this, 867 00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 1: those guys Russo showed up to do the show several times, 868 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:18,360 Speaker 1: but Francessa almost never did. It was always like, you know, 869 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 1: Jody McDonald or somebody was filling in for him, and 870 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: uh yeah, so he he didn't really do that very often. Uh, 871 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:27,600 Speaker 1: we've we've wasted most of our a lot of time. 872 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: Now we have a decision make. We could do pop 873 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: quiz here briefly and do some of those have a 874 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 1: lot of those questions. We could save that for the 875 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: next podcast. So it's really your discretion here, guests. That's 876 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,400 Speaker 1: beautiful turning it over to the pilot. I haven't I 877 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: haven't talked to I'm a pilot in a long time. 878 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: Where has he been on on the social media? That 879 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,880 Speaker 1: reminds men, I've not talked to a few people. I 880 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 1: don't know what happened to him. I don't he vanish? 881 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: Has he gone? And maybe he finally realize you're a 882 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 1: fraud and he distanced yourself, distanced himself from you because 883 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,520 Speaker 1: you're bad news. I don't know about that. Hopefully he's 884 00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: flying across the country or across the world. Even was 885 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 1: flying all over the place sending us photos of random 886 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 1: city braggadocious about how look at look who where I am? 887 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,279 Speaker 1: Look at where I am right in a long time? 888 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,239 Speaker 1: But anyways, I digress.
