No? Y, I've 23 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: heard rumors about it. Okay, does anyone here? And it 24 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: comes from the Pennsylvania Dutch superstition that if a groundtog 25 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: emerges from its borough on this day and sees its shadow, 26 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: it will retreat to its den and winter will go 27 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: on for six more weeks. Now, if it doesn't see 28 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: its shadow, spring will arrive early last year in twenty 29 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: twenty four, and the early spring was predicted. So happy 30 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: Groundhog's Day to everybody. And here's my partner and friend, 31 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: the one and only Bucky Brooks.

You know what, I gotta say something to you 34 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: because you know you're a tar heel, a tar heel grad. 35 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: And what about Bill Belichick, your new coach at University 36 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: of North Carolina football giving out peaches to the fraternity 37 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: last night at the basketball game. I know they got 38 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: drilled by Duke and it was ugly, but he gave 39 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: out peaches. Make it a little bit of a name 40 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: there on the campus. It's great, isn't it. 41 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 3: It is great. 42 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 4: He's making a name on campus. He's also making a 43 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 4: name off campus in terms of the recruiting and those things. 44 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 4: He is really embracing the college football life. 45 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: Well, I guess his girlfriend helps. I mean, obviously, you 46 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: know she's in tune with the with the college people, 47 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: with the co eds. You know what I'm saying. I 48 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: mean it helps. I would think I'm not making fun. 49 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: I mean that does help. I mean, she's like twenty 50 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: four its It's okay, she could relate. She's helping him around. 51 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: It's wonderful. All right, Now the big news. I wake 52 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: up the smile. I couldn't believe what I heard, all right, 53 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: and it's an amazing situation. The Dallas Mavericks. They traded 54 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: Luka Doncics to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis. 55 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: I mean that to me is a huge trade. And 56 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: why why would the Dallas Mavericks Okay, less to the 57 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: year going to the NBA five less to the year trade, 58 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: Really and truly the face of their franchise. He's only 59 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: twenty five. He's earned All NBA First Team honors in 60 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: every one of the last five years. He's gonna be 61 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 1: an all time great, he's gonna be an MVP. And 62 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: the the lunatic who's the general manager of Dallas. Is 63 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: I believe that defense was championships? Ah? Ah, are you 64 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: watching the same game that we're watching. These teams are 65 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: thrown up ninety three plus three point shots a game, 66 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: and you're telling me they went on defense. Doesn't work 67 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: out that way, mister Harrison, Nico Harrison, general manager of Dallas. 68 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: Not gonna work out that way. So now you got 69 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: Lebron teaming up with Luca and it's gonna be really, 70 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: really good. I think the odds went down big time 71 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: for the Lakers to win it. Now with Luca on 72 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: the La Lakers, it's amazing. What did you think about 73 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: that trade? I was shocked. I was shocked. 74 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was shocked. 75 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 4: And when it first came through, I was in on 76 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 4: the catch and I saw it come through, and I 77 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 4: was like, what, this must be a hacked to count 78 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 4: just because of what the Lakers gave up to get Luca, 79 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 4: Like it was just Ad and another player and I pick. 80 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: It didn't seem like this blockbuster deal. 81 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 4: And then as you see it kind of come through 82 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 4: and you start getting the details of the trade and 83 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 4: maybe the wives behind it. 84 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 3: I can understand it. 85 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 4: From the Mavericks standpoint, there was some It appeared to 86 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 4: be some frustration with Luca in terms of not coming 87 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 4: to camp in shape repeatedly having to kind of get 88 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 4: on him, and he appeared to kind of fall out 89 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 4: of favor in the building. And with a Supermax on 90 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 4: the horizon, which is a four hundred million dollar deal 91 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 4: even though he's twenty five, there were some concern what 92 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 4: is he going to age out like twenty five years old, 93 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 4: not necessarily disciplined when it comes to the conditioning part 94 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 4: of the game, will he be able to sustain it? 95 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 4: And do you want to be beholden to a superstar? 96 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 4: And it may not reflect some of the things coach 97 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 4: lead that you want in terms of work ethic detailed 98 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 4: in those things. 99 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 3: For the Lakers, the Lakers do what the Lakers have 100 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 3: always done. 101 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 4: They've always pilfered other team's stars to be the next 102 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 4: big star for them. If you go all the way 103 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 4: back to look, they had Wilt Chamberlain, they had Kareem 104 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 4: abdu Jabbar, Magic Johnson was homegrown. 105 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 3: But they always find a way to get. 106 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 4: Somebody else's got Shaq you now think about Lebron. They 107 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 4: have always done this and so this is just part 108 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 4: for the course. When it comes for the Lakers to 109 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 4: have a superstar in the fold and Luca Danci to 110 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 4: take the baton from Lebron James when he eventually exits 111 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 4: stage right. So I think both parties got what they wanted. 112 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 4: And even though Nico's comments about defense winning championships seems dated, 113 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 4: I do understand why he would say that, because they 114 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 4: got to the finals last year, but they didn't have 115 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 4: the stopping power to get past Jason Tatum and the Celtics. 116 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 4: Sometimes when you fall short on the precipice of being 117 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 4: a world champion, it requires you, or you believe you 118 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 4: have to make radical changes to get over the top. 119 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: I understand that Luca has been a bit of a 120 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: problem on defense, but here's a deal. This Dallas team 121 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: right now is in eighth place. He's averaging almost twenty 122 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: nine points a game, almost nine rebounds and seven assists 123 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 1: a game. 124 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 3: Too. 125 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: The only played twenty two games. He's trained, I left calf, 126 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: and maybe he is out of shape. I don't care. 127 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: This guy is on his way to be a Hall 128 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: of Famer, and now he's teamed up with perhaps one 129 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: of the greatest players in the NBA history, Lebron James. 130 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: They say Lebron James, and they played the Nicks last 131 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: night in New York. They said he was having dinner 132 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: after the game. He knew nothing about it was initially 133 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 1: when I heard the trade and I think, oh, this 134 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: is something Lebron called. He made the move, but obviously 135 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: from what we hear and what we read, he did not. 136 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: It was just done on the part I guess of Dallas. 137 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: They want to unload Luca because they think he's out 138 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: of shape. He came out of weight, overweight, whatever it 139 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: may be, and he's got that calf injury. Look, I'll 140 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,239 Speaker 1: take this guy. This guy's a heck of a player, 141 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: one of the all time greats in the NBA, and 142 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: he's going to help the Lakers. There's no doubt about that. 143 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: You talk about injuries, what about Ad. He's been sidelined 144 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: almost as much as Luca has been. So I don't know. 145 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: I think it's a good move as far as both 146 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: teams are concerned. But if you ask me right now, 147 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: I think the Lakers got the better deal on it. 148 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 4: Maybe so, but I think what you're doing, if you're 149 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 4: the Mavericks, is you can put Ad in his more 150 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 4: natural position of being a power forward. You have two 151 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 4: bigs already in place. You have Kyrie Irvin who can 152 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 4: do some of the things that Luca could do when 153 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 4: it comes to being the dominant ball handler, play distributor 154 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: play starter or whatever. And so the Mavericks are I 155 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 4: would say, closer to being a team that can contend, 156 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 4: more so than. 157 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 3: The Lakers, because with the Lakers, what you have is 158 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 3: a very small front line. You have Lebron, you have Luca. 159 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 4: It's exciting to see them go back and forth and 160 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 4: do that, but they're a very small team. 161 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 3: And how much better does it make them in the West? 162 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 3: I don't know. 163 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 4: It gives them a future star, but I don't know 164 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 4: if it pays off. It gives them an immediate payoff 165 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 4: right now. 166 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 1: But here's the deal. Now, with the Dallas Mavericks, the 167 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: two best players are thirty plus and that's not a 168 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: good thing. With Anthony Davis, he's thirty and Kyrie Irvings 169 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: in his thirties. So I think that you're looking for 170 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: the future. It ain't gonna happen with those guys. I 171 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: guess they want to win. They want to win now. 172 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to happen. I really don't. 173 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: And you got a twenty five year old teaming up 174 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: with Lebron in LA. Again, I think LA gets the 175 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: deal there, they get the better end of it. 176 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 177 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 4: No, I mean, it'll be interesting to see how this 178 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 4: plays out because it's gonna take a while for the 179 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 4: chemistry to develop for these teams. 180 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 3: You know that that's the main thing. 181 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 4: How quickly can they get together when it comes to 182 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 4: the chemistry and the continuity and all that. 183 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: It'd be interesting to see that Lebron, I mean obviously 184 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: welcoming Luca, but how they play together, you know. And again, 185 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: you know Luca has been at times a liability on defense. 186 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: But I'll take that. I'll take the liability, you know. 187 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: So why you know, the guy's averaging almost thirty points 188 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 1: a game. He's an All Star. It's a great player. 189 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: I mean, and again, I don't think many players play 190 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: defense in the National Basketball Association. I mean, I look 191 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: at these scores on a daily basis, one thirty seven, 192 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 1: one thirty four, I mean won forty six. I mean, 193 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: come on, there's no defense in that league. And that's 194 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: what people want. They want scoring, they want points. They 195 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: want guys to put up forty and fifty at night. 196 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, they do all scoring and they want points. 197 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 4: And the league is kind of changed because everyone they're 198 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 4: shooting so many threes. That is kind of a weird 199 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 4: herky jerky product at times. But I do understand what 200 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 4: you're saying in terms of the scoring and offense. But 201 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 4: where it really matters is in the postseason. In the postseason, 202 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 4: when you get to the playoffs, you have to be 203 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 4: able to play defense if you want to advance and 204 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 4: go to the deep parts of the tournament. 205 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 3: And the Mavericks are saying. 206 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 4: We're going to make sure that we can score because 207 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 4: Kyrie always can put the ball in the bucket, but 208 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 4: we have to be able to play defense, and so 209 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 4: they want to see if they can upgrade their defense. 210 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 3: Well see if this works out. This fascinating move. 211 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,319 Speaker 1: For me. I agree, and I was shocked. I mean, 212 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: really and truly a big trade, one of the biggest 213 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: trades ever in the National Basketball Association, coming on the 214 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: heels perhaps of the Super Bowl, but still in all 215 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to get the play that 216 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: the National Football League will get. I mean, the NBA 217 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: cannot compete with the National Football League, not many people 218 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: can maybe college football to some extent. And I'm glad 219 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: you mentioned the three point goal because earlier this week 220 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: did Dan Patrick show. Dan had Adam Silver, the commissioner 221 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: of the NBA, on there, and he's talking about changing 222 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: some rules and moving around and trying to make the 223 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: lead better. TV ratings are hurting, and he said he 224 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: may go from a twelve minute period to a ten 225 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: minute ain't going to work. I have an idea, and 226 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold this. I'm gonna tease it right now 227 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: and maybe wait till the second hour. You're gonna go 228 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: nuts when I tell you this. But I wrote a 229 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: letter to Adam Silver the other day. I think it's 230 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: gonna work. I think this is gonna be the key 231 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: to help the NBA because you cannot live and die 232 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: with the three point goal. Every single night, these teams 233 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: are hauling up three pointers and the people don't want 234 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: to see it. You want to see a game played 235 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: on a normal basis with guys playing basketball, not going 236 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: down to the park and even up threes. So I 237 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: have the idea and the answer, but I'll save that 238 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: for a little later on because I think you'll appreciate that. 239 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: You may make fun of me, they may say it's 240 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: not going to happen, but I think it's a good deal. 241 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: I really do, all right, And speaking of football, let's 242 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: talk about what's going on right now in the national 243 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: football Maybe because of the week from today's the Super 244 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 1: Bowl and this time, I think it's going to be 245 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: a little different for the Philadelphia Eagles, hopefully, and I 246 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: hope if they do win, I hope the may Or 247 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,319 Speaker 1: of Philadelphia knows how to spell Eagles this time, because 248 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: really and truly it'll be it'll be embarrassing. Really, Yeah, 249 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: it's funny. The other morning I was watching Good Morning America. 250 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, I had the TV on in the 251 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: morning and they had a little feature one of the 252 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: elementary schools in Philadelphia. I had. One of the teachers 253 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: was having a lesson with their kids. I think it 254 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: was a fourth fifth grade class doing math, and she 255 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: was teaching math through the Philadelphia Eagles, aiding up game 256 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: by game how many yards sae Quon Barkley had gained 257 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: throughout the season, and the kids were using sae Quon 258 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: Barkley to help them with their math. I thought it 259 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: was great. And then at the end of the deal. 260 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: The end of the segment, they were cheering, let's go Eagles. 261 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: They were spelling eagles, and I was saying, I was 262 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: hoping that the mayor of Philadelphia was watching that, so 263 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: she knows how to spell eagles. It's embarrassing, it really is. 264 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: That's another. 265 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 4: It was embarrassing. Hopefully she was just over excited, excited 266 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 4: about the moment. 267 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: And you're so good giving excuses. 268 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 4: I mean, I just thought, I mean, I would like 269 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 4: to think if you've if you've ascended to being the mayor, 270 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 4: I would believe that you should be able to hold 271 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: your own in some basic spelling bees. And so I'm 272 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 4: hoping that is just a mistake where she just kind 273 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 4: of got excited, you know, got in front of the 274 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 4: mic and kind of lost. 275 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: The little You know that that's why you're so much 276 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: better than me, because you got a heart, you have feelings. 277 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: I'm just a cold hearted individual. You have a heart, 278 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: and you're good. You're a good person. That's why I 279 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: love you. You really are, Bucket Brooks, You're a good man. Anyway, 280 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: Eagles over the Commanders last Weekday rolled in fifty five 281 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 1: twenty three, and they're going to face the Chiefs and 282 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl for the second time in three years 283 00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: a week from today. But on February the twelve, twenty 284 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 1: twenty three, the Chiefs thirty eight to thirty five over 285 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: the Eagles. It was a less second field goal, But 286 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: that game was PS and what's ps? Pre Saquon? All right, 287 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: pre Saquon. It's a different Eagles team. It's a different 288 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: game now, it's a different animal two years ago. In 289 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: that game, the Eagles running back was Miles Sanders. Miles 290 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: Sanders had just sixteen rushing yards. Jalen Hurts threw for 291 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: three to h four. He ran for seventy. He had 292 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: three touchdowns. But I ask you, mister football bucket Brooks, 293 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: what has Barkley added to this Eagles team to make 294 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: them more dangerous against the Chiefs next week. 295 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 3: Well, he's their best offensive player. 296 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 4: So whenever you bring in a talent like that, it 297 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 4: changes the equation from a defensive standpoint. At running back, 298 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 4: he is a home run hitter who can score from 299 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 4: any row in the field at any time. 300 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:53,359 Speaker 3: He's physical. 301 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 4: He does a great job of setting the tone the 302 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 4: way they're able to run the football. Very creative with 303 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 4: their we call them gap schemes. In terms of how 304 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 4: they're pulling people and putting them behind there. And then 305 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 4: when you throw in the combination of Jalen Hurt's ability 306 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 4: to run the football, whether on quarterback design, quarterback runs, 307 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 4: or read option plays, it makes this running game very 308 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 4: difficult to defend. And they have three legitimate weapons in 309 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 4: the passing game, the two wide receivers aj Brown and 310 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 4: DeVante Smith respectively, and then Dallas got it over the middle. 311 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 4: This is a very talented offense. For Saquon Barkley is destroyed. 312 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 4: The stirs to drink. 313 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: Would it be a fair statement for me to say 314 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: that Charles Charles Barkley, but Sae Kwon Barkley, say Kwon 315 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: Barkley makes the Eagles offense almost unstoppable. He rushed for 316 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: over two thousand yards in the regular season. He rushed 317 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: for four hundred and forty plus yards in the playoffs. 318 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: He's done this in an offense as somewhat of a 319 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: ball control offense. I would say that their offense is unstoppable. 320 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: I really believe that it's an unstoppable offense, and I 321 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: think that the build of the Eagles, in fact, we'll 322 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: beat the Kansas City Chiefs. I know everybody says that 323 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: Kansas City's got the n D Reid, Kansas got Mahomes. 324 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: They know how to win, the will to win. Look, 325 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: I've said this, I said this last week to you. 326 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: They've been playing with a horseshoe up their rear end 327 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: most of the season. I get it. You know, they 328 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: know how to win. They feel they're going to win. 329 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: Even when they're losing down the stretch, they say, we've 330 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: been there before, We're gonna win. I just think the 331 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: Eagles have more weapons than the Kansas City Chiefs. They 332 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: do on the offensive side of the ball, and then 333 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: the best defensive team in the league. 334 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 3: I would agree. 335 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 4: We can say they're the most talented team, but until 336 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 4: we see someone take the crown from the Kansaity Chiefs, 337 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 4: I can't pick them. 338 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 3: I can see here and. 339 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 4: Logically say the Philippi Eagles are the more talented team. 340 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 4: The Philadelphia Eagles on paper, should win the game if 341 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: you just look at the rosters, et cetera, et cetera. 342 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 4: But the Kansaity Chiefs are here. Look, they lost two 343 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 4: games in the regular season. One Thos was a giveaway 344 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 4: at the end. We can talk about how many one 345 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 4: score games they won, but they've won them. They knocked 346 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 4: off the Buffalo Bills, a Bills team that kind of 347 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 4: took care of them in the regular season. They found 348 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 4: a way to bounce back and they put up thirty 349 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 4: plus points. We talked about their offense. They finally put 350 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 4: up thirty plus points against one of the better teams 351 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 4: in the league when they needed to do it. 352 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: To me, man, the Kansasita. 353 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 4: Chiefs can go to whatever level they need to rise 354 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 4: to to get dubs. 355 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 3: That makes them scary. 356 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 4: That's why I can't bet against them winning and completing 357 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 4: the three feet. 358 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: You know, I'm glad you mentioned the Buffalo Bills because 359 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 1: we talk about Kansas City, and I hear what you're saying. 360 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: You can't bet against him because they have the will 361 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: to win. They know how to win been they had 362 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: done that. They experience everything there in the same token list. 363 00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: Flip the coin for a second. This Buffalo team has 364 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: a situation where they don't know how to win. They 365 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: come so close, but I can't get it done. And 366 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: this goes back to when Marv Leedy was coaching that team, 367 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: when they went to four straight Super Bowls they lost 368 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: all four. I mean, this is a team that's whatever 369 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: you want to call it, the hext drink jinks. These players, 370 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: I gotta believe that they know that when they go 371 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: into a big game, is it gonna happen again? That's 372 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: got to go through their mind. Is it gonna happen again? 373 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: We're in Kansas City. They'll say, if it happens again, 374 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna be on top list. We've been there, done that, 375 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: we know how to win. Does that go through the 376 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: ball players' minds. I think it has to. 377 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 4: I think there may be some anxiety and apprehension. I 378 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 4: won't say that they directly think, oh my god, here 379 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 4: we go again. But when you've seen one team win 380 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 4: in the fashion of the Kensa and Chiefs have consistently 381 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 4: won over the years, you do have a sense that, man, 382 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 4: you're facing this mystical, magical dragon that you're unable to slay. 383 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 4: For the Buffalo Bills, they've been so close and heartbroken 384 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 4: so many times, it has to become a bit of 385 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 4: a deal. When they see the Chiefs in the postseason 386 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 4: that's even different than the regular season. 387 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 3: And until they vanquished the Chiefs. 388 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 4: In a high leverage game into a in a playoff game, 389 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 4: they'll always the Chiefs will always have their thing over them. 390 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 4: They know that Laman doesn't matter when we play, where 391 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 4: we play, if we play in the postseason, we know 392 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:05,919 Speaker 4: how to beat you. 393 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 3: And you know that as well. 394 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 1: Unbelievable.

Are we tie with the Chiefs? Are we 425 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: tie with Tata?

Is it too much? Chiefs? Tell me? 430 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 3: I think it's too much. 431 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 4: Chiefs for the people that don't really creciate excellence. I 432 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 4: think what we do is we say that we love 433 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 4: winners in our country, and then we get tired of 434 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 4: people as soon as they start winning. 435 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 3: The kan City Chiefs have become dynastic. 436 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 4: And this is something that they said years ago when 437 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 4: they won the first one. They talked about the off 438 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 4: season about being a dynasty. They came up short against 439 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 4: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They traded Tyreek Hill and but 440 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 4: here they are really. 441 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 3: Being a dynasty. 442 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 4: You do not go to the amount of Super Bowls 443 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 4: that they've gone to in a relatively short span and 444 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 4: not frustrate opponents in their fan bases an opportunity to 445 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 4: win a three peat having gone to whatever it is 446 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 4: four and five years or. 447 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 3: Six years. 448 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it drives people crazy because when you think about 449 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 4: being a part of a fan base that probably doesn't 450 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 4: go often, there's some envy of the kans City Chiefs 451 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 4: allays being there. And this has been a great run 452 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 4: even I would say even a better run than the 453 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 4: New England Patriots had over a twenty year period. To 454 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 4: go five and six years, I mean, I'm precedented. And 455 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 4: for them to win if they put us off a 456 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 4: three peet man. It puts Patrick Mahomes already up there 457 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 4: bumping bumping up against Tom Brady as the greatest of 458 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 4: all time when it comes to winning, and those things 459 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 4: puts to be the same air with Joe Montana. 460 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: It's amazing. 461 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 5: You know. 462 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: You look at Patrick Mahomes and it must have been 463 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,719 Speaker 1: one heck of a draft pick with Kansas City. Why 464 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: they went with this guy. He was a Texas Tech. 465 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: He had a losing record as a senior at Texas Tech. 466 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: And it comes here and the question I have would 467 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: he be as good as he is without Andy Reid? 468 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: I mean, how important is Andy Reid to the development 469 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: and success of Patrick Mahomes. 470 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 4: He's essential to the success of Patrick Mahomes. And the 471 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 4: reason why I would say he's essential is every player 472 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 4: needs the ructure in the system. 473 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 3: To be able to flourish. 474 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 4: And when I look at what Andy Reid has done 475 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 4: for Pat Mahomes, he has taken an unorthodox quarterback prospect 476 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 4: out of Texas Tech and put him in an offense 477 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 4: that works. And he did it by kind of breaking 478 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 4: the mold, getting away from his traditional West Coast offense 479 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 4: to doing something that is a little more collegiate a 480 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 4: little more spread offense, and then allowing Pat Mahomes to 481 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 4: grow within the system that is a hybrid system. The 482 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 4: other thing that I'll say in what we slept on 483 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 4: about Pat Mahomes is not only his competitiveness, but I 484 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 4: would say his professionalism when it comes to wanting to 485 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 4: be a winner. Everyone can talk about wanting to be 486 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 4: a winner and say they do all the right things, 487 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 4: but his actions matches worse. First went in, last, went out, 488 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 4: deeply passionate about the game, film study, game plan study, 489 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 4: all those things rate off the charts, and more importantly, 490 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 4: on game day in games when those plays are needed 491 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 4: to be made, he makes them. A lot of times, 492 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 4: we look at franchise quarterbacks, they have to have this 493 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 4: not over my dead body type feel to them, like 494 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 4: a competitive zest and zeal that no matter what happens, 495 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 4: I'm gonna find a way to get us to the 496 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 4: winner circle. Pat Mahomes has that, and he displays that 497 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 4: time after time after time when this team needs it. 498 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 3: In the fourth quarter. 499 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: You know, the Kansas City Chiefs go against everything that 500 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: the National Football League wants to do, and that's to 501 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: have everything balanced. They want to have the worst team 502 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 1: get the first pick, so they could have various different 503 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: teams winning every year. And Kansas City has kind of 504 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 1: broken that mold because of what they've done going through 505 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl five out of six years. And you 506 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 1: bring up a great point because in our country right now, 507 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: people love the underdog, but as soon as the underdog 508 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: starts to win and become somewhat of a dynasty, they 509 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: hate them. And I think most of the country right 510 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 1: now is rooting against the Kansas City Chiefs unless you 511 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: live in Kansas City, because they don't want to see 512 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: this team dominate. And what they've done now gone to 513 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: the next level blaming the officiating and that's why the 514 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: Chiefs are winning. Well, here's the deal. If you're so 515 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: stupid to believe that the officials are changing the outcome 516 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 1: of the Kansas City Chiefs, then why the hell don't 517 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: you take your wallet out and bet against them. That's 518 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 1: the key, And no one's doing that. Really, it's unbelievable. 519 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: And I got a breakdown. I did this just for you, 520 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks. I got a penalty breakdown with the Kansas 521 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: City Chiefs with the officiating. Okay, this was going down 522 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: into last Sunday's game against Washington, I believe here's the deal. 523 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,479 Speaker 1: I mean, I got only stats mixed up over here. 524 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: But heading into Sunday's Kansas City game, they came out 525 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: on the favorable side of some of the differentials in 526 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: the last eleven playoff games, including eight to one in 527 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: penalties for defensive holding, seven to one in penalties for 528 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: roughing the passer, and four to one and penalties for 529 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: unnecessary roughness. Kansas City was also on the favorable end 530 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: of a twenty to seven gap in pre snap penalty 531 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 1: on offense, false starts, illegal formations, illegal shifts, twelve men 532 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: on the field, and delays of game, excluding on fourth down. 533 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 1: So it's unbelievable. But people still believe that Kansas City 534 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: has got the edge, and it's crazy. It's unbelievable. Really, 535 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 1: I don't know why they think that officials really get 536 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 1: the calls right. I'd say ninety eight percent of the time, 537 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: don't you agree? 538 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean, look, it's a hard job, and 539 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 4: I think they do a pretty good job overall. 540 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 3: Officials do. 541 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 4: One of the things that you have when you're the 542 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 4: Kansity chiefs, what you do is you've created this mystique 543 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 4: around you. 544 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 3: When it comes to the winning, No one wants to. 545 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 4: Give people credit for the excellence that they display over 546 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 4: and over and over again. So you have to attribute 547 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 4: it to well, someone's cheating, they're helping them. There's no 548 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 4: way they can win this many games in a row 549 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 4: without somebody like kind of tipping the skills. 550 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 3: In their favor. And what it does, it creates and. 551 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 4: I'll say in over the emotional response to the things 552 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: that happened, what is a ticke tak call for one 553 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 4: team becomes a huge deal when you fann the Kansas 554 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 4: City Chiefs and they are the beneficiary. 555 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 3: And they because they've. 556 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 4: Won so much, they have what I call an emotional 557 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 4: stability about them that allows them to play in these 558 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 4: high pressure moments without flinching. Other teams are not as 559 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 4: emotionally restrained, and so it causes the ebbs and flows 560 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 4: and the lack of execution that we see in some 561 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 4: of these critical moments. 562 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: No doubt about that. Against the Houston Texas last week, 563 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,719 Speaker 1: Okay that according to statistical information after the game, there 564 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: were no fouls for hits on quarterbacks and the eight 565 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: to six overall disparity in favor of Kansas City. Get 566 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: this was nothing out of the ordinary. So look, I mean, 567 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: I think if there was a problem, there would have 568 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: been some sort of a statement from the National Football 569 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: League office about the officiating, and hasn't been. I mean, 570 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: it's just crazy. And again, I think that gamble and 571 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: the increased gambling and it's all over the place, on 572 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: your phone, everywhere else. That has created a situation where 573 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: people think this is an advantage for the Kansas City 574 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: Chiefs because of penalties. That's not the case. It's not 575 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: the case. 576 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 4: No, it's it's definitely not the case. And it's one 577 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 4: of those things where the Cancite Chiefs continue to whin. 578 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 4: People are trying to find a reason why, and if 579 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 4: they can't find a reason why, then it just leads 580 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 4: to this hate that we've seen for them their team. 581 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 4: The only one who kind of escapes that has been 582 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 4: Andy Reid because he's such a lovable guy, but everybody 583 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 4: else gets all the venom. And look, it's one of 584 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 4: those things that fascining to watch. You wonder how long 585 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 4: or how much longer can they sustain this level of success. 586 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 4: But there will positioned to be a team that's going 587 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 4: to be really good for a long time because they're 588 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 4: built the right way. They have a young superstar at 589 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 4: quarterback who isn't going anywhere, and so as long as 590 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 4: you have that piece set up, man, it just gives 591 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 4: you a chance. 592 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 3: Right. 593 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 1: And then there's another thing that kindly kind of made 594 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: me crazy yesterday with this story, and stories like this 595 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: happened in the commonplace. They really are off the field stories, rumors, slander, lies, 596 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: People do anything for a click social media. And we 597 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: have the arrest, we got the drug stories, we got 598 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: the sexual assaults, and we're talking about players in the 599 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: National Football They go happen, okay, but I think that 600 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: has to be a fine line. And I read this 601 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:35,719 Speaker 1: story about the alleged the alleged situation on Baltimore Ravens 602 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: kicker Justin Tucker and his allegations with a nine. Now 603 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: it's nine massage therapists. I said enough. As an I 604 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: didn't want to believe it, you know, but now you 605 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,239 Speaker 1: got nine. I mean, you know, first, first of all, 606 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: I say this, with this story, he didn't break the law. 607 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: You know, he may have breaken the National Football League's laws. 608 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: And it's going to be a problem over here when 609 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: they investigated, and he did say that the allegations were false. 610 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: But again, if Deshaun Watson had to sit on the 611 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: sidelines because of a situation like this, I think if 612 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: they find some more evidence, Justin Tucker is gonna be 613 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: outside looking in. We'll see what the league does about this. 614 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:17,479 Speaker 1: But I am shocked that Justin Tucker. I mean, I 615 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: remember about two years ago, and maybe it's more than that. 616 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: I was watching sixty Minutes on a Sunday evening and 617 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: they did a big feature on Justin Tucker on how 618 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: he sings for the local opera house in Baltimore. I said, 619 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: this guy's got it all together. Justin Really, when you 620 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 1: heard this story, were you a bit shocked of all 621 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: people to have an allegation with a massage therapist sexual 622 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: encounters allegedly. I mean, of all the people, did you 623 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: think would be Justin Tucker? 624 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 3: I mean, like, look, I didn't think. Look. 625 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 4: I thought Justin Tucker does great things away from the 626 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 4: game in terms of his singing, pros, him having opera 627 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 4: ambitions in those things. But when you ask me, being 628 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 4: around the National Football League for twenty plus years, when 629 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 4: I hear these stories, am I surprised? 630 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 3: No? I can't say that I'm surprised. 631 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 4: I think it's just surprising that a kicker, a guy 632 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,239 Speaker 4: like Justin Tucker is associated with it. But you know, 633 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 4: the delegations have risen from six to nine five different locations, 634 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 4: and if we're being fair, look, some of the stuff 635 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 4: that you read about that transpired allegedly are some of 636 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 4: the things that really turned people off on Deshaun Watson. 637 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 4: And at some point, as it continues to escalate, Justin 638 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,479 Speaker 4: Tucker is going to get the same treatment or deserves 639 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 4: to get the same treatment that Deshaun Watson had. 640 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 3: So well, yeah, and so. 641 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 4: It will be interesting to see how this plays out, 642 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 4: because you want to give people the benefit of the 643 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 4: out and in our country, you are innocent until proving guilty. 644 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 4: But as these thens continued him out, it makes it 645 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 4: very very difficult to kind of stand behind and defend Justin. 646 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 3: Tucker against these allegations. 647 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 4: It's look, it's going to be a nasty fight that 648 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 4: he's going to have to get in to clear his name, 649 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 4: and he appears to be very willing to do that defamation. 650 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 3: Retribution. He's seeking to make sure that he cleans his name. 651 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 4: But this is look, this is hard and Deshaun Watson 652 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 4: has never gotten back from that. Some of that is 653 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 4: these the allegations that he had the settlements, and then 654 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 4: some of that is also the blockbuster contract. And when 655 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 4: people talk about the difference, they say, oh, ones a quarterback, 656 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 4: one's a kicker. Yeah, but it seems to be a 657 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 4: little more layered into it. 658 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 3: And I think the contract for Deshaun Watson. 659 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 4: Had a lot to do with the visceral reaction that 660 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 4: we had from the public when his allegations came to 661 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 4: the surface. 662 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: Okay, here here's my question. Okay, there was a situation 663 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: where Robert Kraft several years ago going through misself therapist, 664 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: and obviously he's an owner. So I don't know if 665 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: the National FOOTBA leaguer are the suspending owner. I think 666 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: they can. I think it's happened in the past, and 667 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that they shouldn't do anything to justin Tugle. 668 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: We know what's good for the goose is good for 669 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: the game. There. If they find them guilty, and they do, 670 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: then whatever Deshaun Watson gets, god he should get as well. 671 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: But is it a situation right now that you know 672 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: when you're an athlete is that the price that you 673 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 1: have to pay that every move you make you're under 674 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,719 Speaker 1: a microscope. And now with social media and everybody basically 675 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: as a photographer with their telephone, they could take a picture. 676 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: Robert Krap wanted to do a massage Paula. You know, 677 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: is it breaking the law? You know, it's not the 678 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: right thing to do. You're an owner of the team 679 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: and you're kind of a public figure. You just don't 680 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 1: do something like that. And everybody knew about it. Same 681 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: thing with Justin Tucker, I mean, and Deshaun as well. 682 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: But the point is that, is that the price you 683 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 1: pay that you know everything you do off the field 684 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 1: because public knowledge, you can't go anywhere. Is that the 685 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: problem right now with athletes? 686 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 4: I can't say it's a problem, but I say that's 687 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 4: the life that they've chosen. When you place pro sports 688 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 4: and you become a public figure, public figure, some of 689 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 4: this is kind of part of the territory and it's 690 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 4: unfortunate for these athletes that are dealing with these things. 691 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 4: But you have to be well aware of it, and 692 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 4: you do have to operate not out of a level 693 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 4: of paranoia, but you really have to have your antennas 694 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 4: up when it comes to your encounters with people, when 695 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 4: it comes to where you're at and what's going on 696 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 4: the people around you, like your entourage and your friend, 697 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 4: your families home, all of that stuff matters because it 698 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 4: ultimately comes. 699 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 3: Back on you. 700 00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 4: When you're the pro athlete, when you're the big fish, 701 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 4: people hang these things on you and you just have 702 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 4: to move cautiously as your chimp to navigate like civilian life. 703 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 3: Right. 704 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: And it's a money grab too, I mean, you know, honestly, 705 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:57,479 Speaker 1: I think that the fact that they make a lot 706 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: of money, there's an opportunity for people out there to say, 707 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: I want to get into that guy's wallet. I'm gonna 708 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: do this. I'm gonna accuse him of something and make 709 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: life miserable for him. Really, so it happens, what are 710 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: you gonna do? You were lucky didn't happen to you? Buck, 711 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 1: You're a good man. I'm glad. There we go. He 712 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox Football 713 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: Sunday and Fox.

Here is Bucky Brooks 718 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: and Andy Furman, and we are live from the Tairaq 719 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: dot Com studios and awhere we go, Here we go. 720 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 1: Ask Bucky now, as a college athletic director, is it 721 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,799 Speaker 1: better is it better to participate in a lesser conference 722 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 1: and move to a Power five conference of being also around? 723 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: Which is better? Lesser conference and win? Or go to 724 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: a Power five and being also ran? 725 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 4: Big fishmall pond. I'd rather be the dominant team in 726 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 4: a lesser conference because it gives. 727 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 3: Me more notoriety. 728 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 4: I'll have opportunities to play against the bigger teams down 729 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 4: the line, but I rather dominate a conference. 730 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: I'm with you one hundred percent, I really am. Although 731 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: I tell you what, the big money is the thing 732 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: that lures these college teams to the big conferences. They 733 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: may not win, but they're getting a bigger paycheck. That's 734 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: what it's all about. I guess. Now. Major League Soccer 735 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: MLS plans to introduce Get This Sunday Night Soccer for 736 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, and they're going to go head to 737 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 1: head with the National Football League on TV. Have they 738 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: lost their mind? Are they crazy? 739 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:31,439 Speaker 3: No? 740 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 4: I don't think they're crazy because it's a niche sport. 741 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,280 Speaker 4: The people that are going to watch soccer were unlikely 742 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 4: to watch football, particularly at the MLS level. 743 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 3: If you're talking about. 744 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 4: Premier League and those things, then I would be a 745 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 4: little more concerned. 746 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: No. 747 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 3: MLS. 748 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 4: It's a small fan base, a small obsessed group of 749 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,319 Speaker 4: people that are following them. Yeah, try and create them 750 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 4: all night, but it won't have any impact on football. 751 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: Okay, I hear a different audience. I guess there you go. 752 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 1: All right. Now, the Cleveland Browns they're coming up with 753 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: disappointing twenty four twenty twenty four season, they went three 754 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 1: to fourteen, and they're not going to trade their edge 755 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 1: rusher Miles Garrett, the defensive player of the year. That's 756 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: what they said. I ask you this bucket, Brooks. Is 757 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 1: that selfish and selfish not only for Garrett but for 758 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 1: the fans and the team. They could possibly get two 759 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: first rounds for him, but they're gonna keep him there. 760 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: And look, this guy wants to be a winner, and 761 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna happen in Cleveland for a while. 762 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 4: No, I think they should keep him there, like it's 763 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 4: too hard to find blue chip players. He was number 764 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 4: one overall pick. You selected him, He's lived up to billing. 765 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 4: Why would you trade away approving commodity for two lottery 766 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 4: tickets on players that you don't know. Also, with the drafts, 767 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 4: the upcoming drafts, then I can be as talented as 768 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 4: deep as they've been in the past because of nil 769 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 4: and the way people are staying in those things. When 770 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 4: you have someone that you know can play, you try 771 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,839 Speaker 4: and do everything in your power to keep them until 772 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 4: you've exhausted all of those options and there's no other 773 00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 4: choice but to let them walk. 774 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: All right, the Pro Bowl Bucky Brooks talk about the 775 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: Pro Ball. Give me a thumbs up or a thumbs down, 776 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,839 Speaker 1: and what are the possible changes they need to do 777 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,360 Speaker 1: for this Pro Bowl. The guy's running around with towels 778 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,760 Speaker 1: sticking out of their hip. I think it's crazy. 779 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 4: Well, it's never going to satisfy the common fan, right 780 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 4: The common fan wants. 781 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 3: To see the Pro Bowl play like it's a Super Bowl. 782 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 4: They want to see players kind of risk their livelihoods 783 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 4: and put it all on the line for an exhibition game. 784 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 4: That is never going to happen. Those days are gone 785 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,280 Speaker 4: because the money is so significant in sports. You're trying 786 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 4: to get to your next contract, and after you're going 787 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 4: through a seventeen game regular season, the last thing you're 788 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 4: trying to do is play another game that doesn't have 789 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 4: any significantificant outcomes for you. 790 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 3: So yeah, like, look enjoy for what it is. 791 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 4: See your favorite players doing what they do, whether it's 792 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 4: flag football or these skills, and that's what it is. 793 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 4: But don't expect the Pro Bowl to ever equate to 794 00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 4: what a Super Bowl is when it comes to the 795 00:37:59,040 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 4: level of intensity. 796 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: All right, now, the return if you remember this, the 797 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: return of the college football All Star Game going against 798 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: the NFL All Stars. Is that a possibility? And way 799 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,240 Speaker 1: back in the day, the College Charities of the Chicago 800 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: that a college All Star game. It was an American 801 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 1: football game played for nineteen thirty four to nineteen seventy 802 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:22,879 Speaker 1: six between the National Football League champions and a team 803 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: of college All Star seniors from the previous year. It 804 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: was known as the College All Star Football Classic in Chicago. 805 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 1: Can we ever see that again? 806 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 4: We should not see that because it looks the disparity 807 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 4: is so significant between the pros and the college guys. 808 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 4: It's nice in thought, the think that the national champion 809 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 4: could take on pros. 810 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 3: No way, no how. I don't want to see that. 811 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 3: No one want to see that. 812 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: And the last All Star win came in nineteen sixty three, 813 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,439 Speaker 1: when a college team coached by legendary quarterback I Don't 814 00:38:54,520 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: Graham beat Vince Lombardy's Green Bay Packers twenty to seventeen. Really, 815 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: I wish they would have that again. I don't think 816 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen again now. Last, but not least, the 817 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: Washington Capitol's public address announcement, Wes Johnson was hobstabalized with 818 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 1: a medical emergency. The team shared a crowdfunding page set 819 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 1: up by Johnson's family, and the fans were outraged. Why 820 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 1: would they be outraged to raise money for this guy 821 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: who got sick? I don't get it. 822 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, idea, it's weird to fan reaction. Normally these things 823 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,359 Speaker 4: are well received. So we'll see a different time. 824 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 3: Here we go. 825 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: All right, Bucky Brooks has the future of your team 826 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: in your hands.

Last night, 837 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm watching the Arkansas Kentucky game on TV. All right, 838 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,320 Speaker 1: I live in Kentucky. People will go crazy with the 839 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,720 Speaker 1: Kentucky Wildcats. And prior to the game, I think several 840 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: days beforehand, Rip Patino sends out a message a video 841 00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 1: that people should not boo John Cali Powrie, the Arkansas 842 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: coach who's the former Kentucky coach who left after last year. 843 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm saying, why on earth would Rip Petino do that? 844 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: First of all, Rip Patino and caliperiy and not the 845 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 1: best of friends anyway, and I just don't understand that. 846 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 1: And certainly when Rip Pettino coached at Kentucky, he left 847 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 1: Kentucky to go coach to Boston Celtics. Then he came 848 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: back to coach University of Louisville. And yes, when Louisville 849 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: played Kentucky when he was the Louisville coach, he was booed. 850 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: So maybe that's why he didn't want Cali Perry to 851 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: be booed. You know what it's like. However, they did 852 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,360 Speaker 1: boo calib Pari last night, but Cali Perry had the 853 00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,759 Speaker 1: last left Arkansas beat Kentucky last night in Lexington. But 854 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 1: why would he do that? I mean, why would a 855 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,719 Speaker 1: coach go crazy? I mean all of a sudden. Now 856 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,360 Speaker 1: Rick Patino is acting like the King of coaches telling 857 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 1: people what to do all of a sudden. I don't 858 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 1: get it. Why would he do that? 859 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 3: I think, Look, he's trying to pay it forward. 860 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,839 Speaker 4: He's also trying to implore because he wants to be 861 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 4: beloved and he would like to think that he has 862 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 4: still some impact on that Kentucky kingdom. And so he 863 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 4: was trying to use his way to an active result. 864 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 4: And even though he and caler Pari are not the 865 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 4: best of friends. Look, he's able as a legendary coach 866 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 4: to see the job that John caler Pari did and 867 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 4: realized that it needed to be appreciated, and maybe he 868 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 4: was underappreciated during his tenure in Kentucky. But the thing 869 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 4: that those fans were not going to boot that was crazy. 870 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 4: I mean, when you go on to the other side, 871 00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 4: particularly to a team within the conference on and so 872 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 4: they'll eventually patch it up and get it together. 873 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 3: But it's nonsensical to. 874 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 4: Think that he was going to come back and walk 875 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 4: into reporrida and get a stand in your. 876 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 1: Vation, right. Yeah, And you know, here's the thing. I mean, 877 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: I've heard for years you can't book college kids they're 878 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 1: student athletes. Now you can. They're getting paid. I mean, 879 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 1: I don't think it's the right thing to do. I 880 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 1: don't think it's classy. But you know, really and truly 881 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,839 Speaker 1: you could boo them, right, I mean, what is your 882 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 1: stance on going to a game if you're paying for 883 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: a ticket and you sit in the stands and you're 884 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 1: a big college booster of that team, you're a graduate 885 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: perhaps of that school, and they're not doing well, can 886 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: you boo? Is it a good thing to do? I 887 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: think it's classless, but you know, I don't think there's 888 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 1: anything wrong with it if you want to. 889 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 4: Do it, I mean, if you want to do it, 890 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 4: but it's going to negatively impact the performance on the field. 891 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 4: When kids are booed, or when they're heckled or taunted 892 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 4: or any of those things from their own fans. There's 893 00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 4: already a level of disappointment that they have in their 894 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 4: own performance. It only look it only raises it up 895 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 4: even higher. And so if you feel better because you 896 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,719 Speaker 4: paid money for a ticket and it's your right to 897 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,359 Speaker 4: boom like, so be it. But it's not gonna change 898 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,319 Speaker 4: anything that happens on the floor, right. 899 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 1: But I think that enough booze and enough people staying 900 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: away could have a result where staffing, athletic director and 901 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: maybe boosters will say it may be time for a 902 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 1: coaching change. Is that possible? 903 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 4: That is possible because apathy is the worst thing that 904 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 4: you want to see when you're an athletic director. The 905 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 4: fans aren't show enough anymore, they don't care about the 906 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 4: product all of those things. So that's where it can 907 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 4: be impactful. But I still would say that it's never 908 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 4: a good thing. Like your job is to support the team, 909 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 4: So rather than admonish them, maybe encourage them to pick 910 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 4: it up they can play better. Maybe those are the 911 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 4: things that the team needs frad the situation. 912 00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 3: I can say this in. 913 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 4: Watching Carolina, watching my tar Hs lose four out of 914 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 4: the last five, washing them get absolutely choked out by 915 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 4: the Duke Blue Devils yesterday, seeing them drop a bunch 916 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 4: of one possession games. Yeah, there's a sense of frustration 917 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 4: within the fan base to the point that they have 918 00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 4: talked about man, can Hubert Davis get it on and 919 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,720 Speaker 4: those things, and some of that is par for the course, 920 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 4: but I also see a bunch of kids that are 921 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 4: struggling with the weight of expectations. The thing about coaching, 922 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 4: particularly at the collegiate level, your job, your livelihood, hinges 923 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,120 Speaker 4: on the emotional stability of eighteen to twenty two year olds. 924 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,359 Speaker 4: And in basketball you talking about eighteen nineteen year olds 925 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 4: because they're won and done. It is hard to know 926 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 4: what they're going to do on a day to day 927 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 4: basis when it comes to eating and shopping and sleeping 928 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 4: and what they want to do to think that they 929 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 4: can execute. 930 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:49,760 Speaker 3: At a high level over time. 931 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:54,880 Speaker 4: Hard easier said hard to get done. It's a tricky 932 00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 4: profession right now, and the money only makes it worse 933 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 4: because some of the tactics that you used to use, 934 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:06,399 Speaker 4: we're regarding holding up players, playing time, punishment for being 935 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,799 Speaker 4: late in those things. Some of those things you can find, 936 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 4: but like that that negatively impacts the culture, the environment that. 937 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 3: You're trying to create. 938 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 4: It's a very very difficult set of circumstances coaches are 939 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 4: dealing with. 940 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad you broughtup the nil on the money situation. 941 00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 1: How does that work? I mean, we're hearing that some 942 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: of these players are getting like in the millions now 943 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 1: that they got one check prior to entering school that 944 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: I get paid by the week. Can I get that 945 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: check held? Can I get suspensions? If they don't play? 946 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 1: Do they not get paid? How does that work? Or 947 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: is an individual situation per school. 948 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 4: I think it's an individual per school, and it's a 949 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 4: situation where guys have to figure out what works to them. 950 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 4: In terms of coaches, how heavy can you go at 951 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:54,920 Speaker 4: players for their money? And if you want to run 952 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 4: a professional program, are they ready for it to be 953 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,439 Speaker 4: run like a professional program? Everyone thinks they're ready until 954 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 4: they have to. So coaches and players, you got to 955 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 4: make sure the environment that is being created, that you 956 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 4: fit and you're more than just a guy that's a 957 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 4: cognate will that you're in essential part, invaluable to the group. 958 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 4: That's how it goes. That's how you carve it out. 959 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 1: Okay, let me zero win on your school, University of 960 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 1: North Carolina. You got Bill Belichick coaching the football team. 961 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: You got Hubert Davis basketball. All right, Certainly every athlete 962 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 1: on the football team and or a basketball team is 963 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 1: going to get a paycheck to some extent. Now do 964 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,479 Speaker 1: they have an agent to get them in the money, 965 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: because now I'm hearing that most of these schools have 966 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: what they call a general manager. I guess he handles 967 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: the funds. And what does he do? He goes out 968 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 1: there and recruits the lums and businesses to help pay 969 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: the athletes. How does it work? 970 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 3: Well? 971 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 4: When you have a general managers operates very similar to 972 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 4: a protein. The general manager is responsible for a roster construction, 973 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 4: maintaining the continuity when it comes to the quote unquote 974 00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:00,839 Speaker 4: salary cap, that's the money. Who who deserves to get 975 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 4: paid what? Because you approximate value and assigned value to 976 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 4: certain positions, certain players, and you probably rank and re 977 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 4: rake your team from one to one hundred to see 978 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 4: who deserves the most and most time you reserve that 979 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 4: I would say for the tallest, I mean for the 980 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 4: most talented in those things. And as you rank them, 981 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 4: you just have to figure out how you want to 982 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 4: slot the money in doing those things. But it's a 983 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 4: more difficult and challenging landscape, you know, to kind of handle, 984 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 4: because there's no regulation, there's no set spending them out, 985 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 4: none of that, and so everyone is kind of fending 986 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 4: for themselves. 987 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 1: Okay, so the general manager's going to kind of slot 988 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 1: them as you say. I'm a quarterback coming out of 989 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: high school being recruited by Belichick and North Carolina guy says, 990 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to give you, you know, one hundred and fifty thousand, 991 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, five hundred thousand, whatever it may be. 992 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 1: And the kid comes to the school and say, you 993 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,320 Speaker 1: know what, though I've been off, it's seven hundred and 994 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 1: fifty thousand school X, I don't want to go. I mean, 995 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,080 Speaker 1: is that the way? Is there a negotiation there? And 996 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 1: then North Carolina says, well, well we'll get back to you, 997 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: and they're trying to get more money to give to him. 998 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 1: Is that how that works? 999 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like there's a bit of a negotiation 1000 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 4: between the general manager, head coach and the player's representatives, 1001 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 4: and you have to get all that buttoned up and 1002 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 4: down in before he's able to kind of join the squad. 1003 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 4: So you're in a holding pattern until you can get 1004 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 4: all those agreements. The thing that is going to change everything, 1005 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 4: because what we're talking about is like not necessarily nil of. 1006 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:33,240 Speaker 3: But revenue sharing. 1007 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 4: If this becomes a Title nine case and it's one 1008 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 4: of those things where you have to pay all of 1009 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 4: the athletic departments, women and men, it changes how much 1010 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 4: money is available and how you do it. That's why 1011 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,439 Speaker 4: it's gonna be fascinating to watch how this eventually plays out. 1012 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 4: Because the NCUBA is operating kind of like a house 1013 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 4: of cards. I don't know how sustainable the model is 1014 00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 4: then continue to operate this way. 1015 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,360 Speaker 1: Why would anybody in their right mind going to coaching 1016 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: right now on a major college level. That's why guys 1017 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: like Jay Wright have left a Villanova. You can't do it. 1018 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 1: It's crazy, you know. Recruiting alone without the NIL was 1019 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: a pain in the rear ring. It really was going 1020 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 1: to an eighteen year old kids living room with their 1021 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 1: mom and dad there and say come play for me, 1022 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 1: and the kids's gonna say, well, I'm not going to 1023 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 1: start how many games are gonna be on TV? When 1024 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,480 Speaker 1: we the schedules like and then back and forth, and 1025 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 1: there were some under the table moneys given by various schools. 1026 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: We know that, but now there's an added problem not 1027 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: only going there to ask them to come play for you, 1028 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:36,840 Speaker 1: say well, how much are you going to pay me 1029 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 1: to play for you? It's crazy, really. 1030 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 3: I mean it is. 1031 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,240 Speaker 4: But then I'm not going to pull up my tiny 1032 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 4: little land for all these coaches who've been doing this 1033 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 4: for years. They've been and I would say this entire 1034 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 4: athletic departments have been taking advantage of players when it 1035 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 4: comes to not wanting to give funds to the players. Like, 1036 00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 4: let's go back and really think about the origin of this. 1037 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:04,400 Speaker 4: The NCA used to penalize players for getting. 1038 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,840 Speaker 3: Like an extra cheeseburger, right. 1039 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:10,359 Speaker 4: Like simple things that you should have a reasonable expectation 1040 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 4: to be able to get when you're on campus, and 1041 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 4: so it must room form like hey, can we at 1042 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 4: least work during the off season because you need extra money. 1043 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 4: Everyone doesn't come from a situation where they have extra 1044 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 4: money to pay, like you're on scholarship, which takes care 1045 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:27,280 Speaker 4: of room and board, and you have the meal table 1046 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 4: and all that, but some of the things on the 1047 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,760 Speaker 4: weekends you can't do right depending on whether the training 1048 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 4: table is open or close or whatever. 1049 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,040 Speaker 3: And so it. 1050 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 4: Started from that, and greed ultimately put them in a 1051 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 4: situation where they're now like this, and the players have 1052 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 4: a significant amount of power when it comes to the money, 1053 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,719 Speaker 4: and it's become transactional in those things. And so some 1054 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 4: of the coaches that jumped out, I would say they're 1055 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 4: selfish in their own right because they don't have the 1056 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:56,600 Speaker 4: ability to change just because players are getting paid. Good 1057 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,799 Speaker 4: coaches figured out. Good coaches continue to hold people accountable 1058 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 4: with or without the money. 1059 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,839 Speaker 3: If you really love the game, you stay in it. 1060 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 4: If it was something as a means to an end, 1061 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:10,319 Speaker 4: a means to being able to acquire more wealth for 1062 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 4: you as a coach, those are. 1063 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 3: The ones that are more likely to get out when 1064 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 3: it gets hard. 1065 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not opposed to players getting paid because I 1066 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 1: think they should because they do a lot of the university. 1067 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 1: They increase enrollment, they increase merchandise, and they put them 1068 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: on TV. I get it, and they do a lot 1069 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,359 Speaker 1: of work, and they're going to school as well as 1070 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: practice time, so a lot of time is taken up 1071 00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: and they don't have much time for a social life. 1072 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 1: I get it. They should get paid, but I think 1073 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:33,440 Speaker 1: there's got to be a better way to get paid. 1074 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 1: I really do. I mean, eventually, I think it's going 1075 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 1: to happen, because, as you say, this situation now it's 1076 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 1: not really working out as I think they thought it 1077 00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:46,080 Speaker 1: would work out. However, we move on because you have 1078 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 1: the ability to do an NFL mock draft. You're a 1079 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 1: personnel man, you're a coach, you play in the NFL, 1080 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:54,800 Speaker 1: you're a scout, you're a writer, you're right fort NFL 1081 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 1: dot com, and this week you had your mock draft. 1082 00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:57,759 Speaker 3: Right. 1083 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 1: However, I am going to challenge you. I'm going to 1084 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,560 Speaker 1: ask our executive producer today, Brianna, are you there? Are 1085 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:06,799 Speaker 1: you here with us right now? Are you with us? 1086 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:07,880 Speaker 3: Okay? 1087 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 1: Would you do me a tremendous favor? Of course, I'm 1088 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: gonna ask Bucky Brooks to go like his first three 1089 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: or five picks in his MOX draft, and I'm gonna 1090 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 1: give you mine. And if you write these down, I 1091 00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,959 Speaker 1: will save them for draft day. I will see who 1092 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,280 Speaker 1: is more correct? Is that fair? Is that fair? 1093 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 2: Okay? 1094 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,480 Speaker 1: A former a former NFL player and a guy who 1095 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 1: played two a touch in the streets of Brooklyn. We'll 1096 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:35,879 Speaker 1: see who's who's more on top of their game. I'll 1097 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 1: be ready to go. Bucky, your first pick in the 1098 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: draft this year? Who did you have on NFL dot com? 1099 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:47,480 Speaker 4: Okay, Tennessee Titans selects Shoulder Sanders as the number one 1100 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 4: overall pick. And I'm glad that you actually brought this 1101 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 4: up because I found some quotes where Brian Callahan, the 1102 00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 4: head coach of the Sinse Titans, compared Shador Sanders to 1103 00:52:56,680 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 4: his former quarterback Joe Burrow. I think that comparison is 1104 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 4: valid giving the way that he plays point guard from 1105 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 4: the pocket. I think if you're the Tennessee Titans, you 1106 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 4: want a polished player at the position as opposed to 1107 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:10,240 Speaker 4: the wildcard, which is cam Ward. 1108 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 3: That's why she Drea Sanders is to pick. 1109 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 1: Okay, so bring on to you right down now, Bucky 1110 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:19,520 Speaker 1: brook Scott Sanders, I got Tennessee Titans number one pick, 1111 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:24,240 Speaker 1: cam Wards, Miami and Florida, better schedule, toughest schedule, and 1112 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: I think the comparison with cam Ward, at least for 1113 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans, is not so much going to be 1114 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,279 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. It's going to be Patrick Mahomes. And I 1115 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,799 Speaker 1: think Tennessee's taking cam Ward. How do you like that? 1116 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 4: I mean, I like it, But here's what I tend 1117 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 4: to say. Normally, you try and get away from projects 1118 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 4: if you just had a project. Part of the conversation 1119 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,720 Speaker 4: with Will Levis was Okay, he has some tools and stuff, 1120 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:51,839 Speaker 4: but he just needs to project and develop. When you're 1121 00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 4: Brian Callahan and you need to win right now, I 1122 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:56,879 Speaker 4: don't know if you want to jump into that lot 1123 00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,920 Speaker 4: with cam Ward. The other thing that I would say 1124 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:03,800 Speaker 4: is cam Ward's terrific. Kim Ward is shown at Incarnate Word, 1125 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 4: Washington State, and Miami that he certainly can win, but 1126 00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 4: he's more of a gun slinger. 1127 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 3: So turnovers in those things Shador Sanders despite. 1128 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 4: All of the stuff around him where people may not 1129 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 4: like the personality in those things. I'm gonna say this, 1130 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:21,840 Speaker 4: Jackson State turnaround, Colorado turnaround. When you think about franchise quarterbacks, 1131 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 4: you want guys that can do the hard stuff to 1132 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 4: help your team get back on track. He's proven he 1133 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 4: can do that. 1134 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:28,760 Speaker 1: You make a good selling pointball. We'll see what happens 1135 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 1: in April. Ok pick number two, Bucket Brooks. That's gonna 1136 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:33,280 Speaker 1: be the Cleveland Browns. You're on the clock. 1137 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Cleveland Browns, despite an obvious need a quarterback, 1138 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 4: they're gonna go with Abdual Carter, pass running pass rusher 1139 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 4: extraordinaire from Penn State. Part of this is we have 1140 00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,360 Speaker 4: the disgruntled Miles Garrett. Well, let's give him a playmate 1141 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 4: on the other side. 1142 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 3: To win in this. 1143 00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 4: League, you've got to be great on one side of 1144 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:53,120 Speaker 4: the ball, and the Browns had the potential to be 1145 00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:56,719 Speaker 4: great if you take a dynamic pass rusher to go 1146 00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,360 Speaker 4: with Miles Garrett. Being able to win in that division 1147 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 4: against the quarterback play in the division certainly helps. So 1148 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:06,520 Speaker 4: we don't get the quarterback now. We get the quarterback later. 1149 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 4: But Abdual Carter is to pick. 1150 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,960 Speaker 1: Okay, number two, Cleveland Browns. They're gonna pick Travis Hunter, 1151 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:15,239 Speaker 1: the cornerback wide receiver from Colorado. Get I get it. 1152 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson's got that second Achilles surgery. The quarterback situation 1153 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 1: is up up in the air. It's in question walk, 1154 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,480 Speaker 1: But I think you got to get a rookie that 1155 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 1: has a situation where he could go either way, play 1156 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,239 Speaker 1: both ways perhaps, and a most viable guy. He's the 1157 00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:31,320 Speaker 1: best player. You gotta go with the best player available 1158 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 1: at the time. I'm going with Travis Hunter from Colorado 1159 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:36,200 Speaker 1: number two Cleveland Browns. 1160 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:39,759 Speaker 4: Okay, Travis Hunder is interesting because you're talking about a 1161 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 4: perimeter player or someone on the outside that can do 1162 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:45,279 Speaker 4: things not only as a receiver, but potentially as a 1163 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 4: corner or vice versa. I mean, I like it, but 1164 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 4: I will tell you what coaches will tell you. 1165 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 3: The front impacts. 1166 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:54,360 Speaker 4: To back end more than the back end impacts to 1167 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 4: front end, meaning pass rush over coverage, because if you 1168 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,839 Speaker 4: can knock the quarterback down, doesn't matter who you got 1169 00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 4: in coverage. 1170 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,320 Speaker 1: Okay. Pick number three goes to the New York Giants. 1171 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 1: Bucket Brooks, you're on the clock, Brianna, are you up 1172 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 1: to date with us? 1173 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,719 Speaker 2: You got all the information, I got everything ready to go. 1174 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,080 Speaker 1: Yes, you're the best. You're the best, really, all right, 1175 00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 1: Bucket Brooks. New York Giants, You're on the clock. 1176 00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 4: Okay, New York Giants, time to get a franchise quarterback. 1177 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 4: But we need a franchise quarterback with a little bite. 1178 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,000 Speaker 4: Cam Ward is to pick here. And I know I 1179 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 4: talked about cam Ward being a gun slinger. You compare 1180 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:30,319 Speaker 4: them to Patrick Mahomes. I'm gonna compare them in terms 1181 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:33,600 Speaker 4: of as a playmaker to some of these new school 1182 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 4: quarterbacks that we have. The thing that you have in 1183 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 4: New York is you want to be competitive. This is 1184 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 4: a guy who's leadership skills, his intelligence, his IQ, I mean, 1185 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 4: his instincts, all of that stuff rates off the charts. 1186 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 4: Is just cam Brian daball harness, some of the recklessness 1187 00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:53,280 Speaker 4: that he displays within the pocket. 1188 00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:58,920 Speaker 3: Regardless that New York Giants need a little dog at quarterbacks. 1189 00:56:58,960 --> 00:56:59,840 Speaker 3: So cam Ward is the. 1190 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: Okay, New York Giants pick number three. Obviously both a 1191 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,279 Speaker 1: they need a quarterback and Brian day Bol supposedly as 1192 00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:10,560 Speaker 1: an offensive genius working with quarterbacks. They're gonna pick sure 1193 00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 1: Door Sanders and honestly the other day didn't should do 1194 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 1: what Sanders say, not mentioning what team he was going 1195 00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: to play for, who he'd like to play for, That 1196 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:21,919 Speaker 1: he's going to play against Dallas twice every year, which 1197 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 1: tells me he's probably gonna go play for the New 1198 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 1: York Football Giants. Shed Door Standers goes to the Giants 1199 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:30,800 Speaker 1: pick number three out of Colorado. What do you think? 1200 00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 3: I mean? 1201 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,439 Speaker 4: Look at I mean, I think he's there. Regardless, those 1202 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 4: teams at the top need a quarterback, so we can 1203 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 4: talk about Shader. Sanders is not going to go earlier 1204 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 4: cam Ward, but Shaduri's going early because teams need a quarterback. 1205 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 3: So I can see it with the Giants working out 1206 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 3: all right. 1207 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 1: Pick number four goes to the New England Patriots. Bucky Brooks, 1208 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 1: you were on the clock. 1209 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 4: The New England Patriots have an interesting dilement because they 1210 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,840 Speaker 4: need to upgrade the firepower around the quarterback. Drake may 1211 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 4: could be an offense line, but let's go Travis Hunter here. 1212 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 4: I find it interesting. Mike Rabel is a decorated two 1213 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 4: way player in New England, Hall of Famer in New England, 1214 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 4: having played outside linebacker and tied in for the Patriots, 1215 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 4: particularly down in red zone situations. He knows how to 1216 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,200 Speaker 4: maximize a player like a Travis Hunter, who could be 1217 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 4: a two way player in this league, perhaps not full time, 1218 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 4: but in packages. 1219 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:25,200 Speaker 3: I just think. 1220 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 4: Rabel sees a little bit of him and Travis Hunter 1221 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 4: in terms of the versatility, and it kind of leads 1222 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 4: him to select the playmaker from Colorado with a fourth 1223 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 4: overall pick. 1224 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 1: Okay, fourth pick, New England Patriots. I'm going to go 1225 00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 1: with Abdul Carter out of Penn State. He's the Big 1226 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,720 Speaker 1: Ten defensive player of the year. Somebody this guy. Mike 1227 00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 1: Rabel would love this guy. He's probably salivating. He hopes 1228 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:49,960 Speaker 1: he's available. Defensive end, outside linebacker from Penn State, defensive 1229 00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: player of the year in the Big Ten. He goes 1230 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 1: to the New England Patriots at pick number four. Okay, 1231 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: well wrap it up, pick number five. You're Jacksonville Jaguars, 1232 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:01,480 Speaker 1: Bucky Brooks, pick number five, if you are on the clock. 1233 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:07,360 Speaker 4: Let's go with Mason Graham from Michigan. The Jacksonville Jaguars 1234 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 4: need to fix the interior of their front line, and 1235 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 4: so when I look at what they have available, Trayvon 1236 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 4: Walker is nice, Josh hens Allen is a nice piece. 1237 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 4: Eric Armisteon is on the down the back nine in 1238 00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 4: the Twy Lives career. So you need someone on the 1239 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:27,120 Speaker 4: inside that can dominate. You think Mason Graham coming from Michigan, 1240 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:30,720 Speaker 4: heavy handed, arms, a little short by scouting measures. But 1241 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:33,960 Speaker 4: you put him with Mason Smith, their second round pick 1242 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,760 Speaker 4: from a season ago. Now you begin to cook with 1243 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:40,040 Speaker 4: gas with a young, dynamic front line that can really 1244 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 4: wreck shop at the point of attack. 1245 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny. You got Mason Graan, the defensive 1246 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 1: tackle out of Michigan going uber five the Jacksonville. I 1247 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:50,080 Speaker 1: got the cornerback out of Michigan, Will Johnson. He's six ' 1248 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:53,919 Speaker 1: to two, he's a pretty physical guy, and we both 1249 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,920 Speaker 1: agree they any defensive help. But I'm going with defensive 1250 00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 1: help in the back fiet with the cornerback Will Johnson. 1251 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 1: Do you think there's a possibility on my way off 1252 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:02,439 Speaker 1: base on the Will Johnson pick. 1253 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 4: No, you're I mean, look, you're in the ballpark. They 1254 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 4: need a cornerback to go opposite Tyson Campbell. In fact, 1255 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 4: they need Tyson Campbell to play well, but they signed 1256 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 4: him so he's gonna make nineteen million dollars. They need 1257 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:15,200 Speaker 4: someone that can be a front line defender on the 1258 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,520 Speaker 4: other side. Will Johnson would be a worthy candidate. I 1259 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 4: just think that when you're the Jags and you've struggled 1260 01:00:20,680 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 4: for so long defending the run, getting have to pass, 1261 01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:25,000 Speaker 4: you got to get a big body. 1262 01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 3: Got to get a big guy. When you can get 1263 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,439 Speaker 3: little guys late, you can get corners and stuff later. 1264 01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 4: But a big guy, dominant guy, proven track record, Mason 1265 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 4: Graham can't pass him up. 1266 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,720 Speaker 1: All right, bring I did you got those five picks? 1267 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 2: I got all five for each of you. 1268 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:41,640 Speaker 1: Could you put him in a safe for something to 1269 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 1: lock them up until the draft on April? Question? 1270 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 2: Absolutely? 1271 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 1: I know I don't. I don't win offen in bottom 1272 01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 1: barrel betting. But I think I got Bucky on this, 1273 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:51,760 Speaker 1: I really do. I think I got him. 1274 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:53,280 Speaker 2: The best of luck to both of you. 1275 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 1: That was very nice of you.

Thank you very much. 1277 01:00:58,680 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 2: Here we go. 1278 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 1: He's Bucky Brooks.

If you 1318 01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:59,320 Speaker 1: were to be asked a question, and I'm asking this 1319 01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 1: to Bucket Brook, my partner who knows all if you 1320 01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 1: would to ask what professional sports league needs help, what 1321 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 1: professional sports league perhaps is in trouble and pointing in 1322 01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 1: a downward direction, which league would perhaps that. 1323 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:16,440 Speaker 3: Be, which works league needs help? I would say basketball. 1324 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 4: In terms of just watchability, the ratings are down, and 1325 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 4: I think that's reflective on the product. The product just 1326 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,240 Speaker 4: I'll say it's boring. There's nothing exciting about watching the 1327 01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:30,160 Speaker 4: regular season NBA game. Everyone plays the same style, the 1328 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 4: jack up a lot of threes. 1329 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:32,720 Speaker 3: You may or may not. 1330 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 4: See your star player participate, depending on the load management schedule. 1331 01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:39,760 Speaker 4: I would say basketball needs a lot of work. The 1332 01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 4: thing is, I don't know how you change it. Players 1333 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 4: have played significant money. You can't make them play. And 1334 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:50,120 Speaker 4: if you're a team like I, understand the desire to 1335 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 4: satisfy your fan base, but make sure that your stars 1336 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 4: play in these home games. But also understand ultimately you're 1337 01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:59,640 Speaker 4: judged by your ability to win in the postseason. So 1338 01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:01,440 Speaker 4: I need to take a couple of days off in 1339 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 4: the regular season to ensure that my star players available 1340 01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 4: in the postseason. 1341 01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 3: I want to do that stylistically. I don't know how 1342 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:09,120 Speaker 3: they can change. 1343 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 4: Man, the analytics and the coaches prefer to jack up 1344 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 4: to threes and that stuff. 1345 01:04:15,520 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 3: So it's just it's not like a fun game to watch. 1346 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,640 Speaker 4: But we saw baseball make some changes with the pitch count, 1347 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:25,360 Speaker 4: eliminating the shift in those things, and that brought some 1348 01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 4: of the people back to the sport. I just think 1349 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 4: the NBA needs a little bit of some tweaking and refining. 1350 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 1: That's why we're here, Binga. You got the right answer, 1351 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 1: You got the right sport, because it is the NBA. 1352 01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:38,800 Speaker 1: We're going to examine some of the problems. I mean, 1353 01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 1: one of the problems I think is the season is 1354 01:04:41,080 --> 01:04:43,680 Speaker 1: too long. When are they going to wise up and say, look, 1355 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:48,440 Speaker 1: let's officially start Christmas Day? Stop starting when the NFL 1356 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,000 Speaker 1: is in full swing. You're never going to go head 1357 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:53,600 Speaker 1: to head with the NFL. Why the NFL is a 1358 01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:57,600 Speaker 1: national sport. The NBA, sorry to say, is a regional sport. 1359 01:04:58,120 --> 01:05:02,840 Speaker 1: Really coast to coast, there are big NFL fans in Boise, Idaho. 1360 01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:05,680 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a lot of NBA fans in Boise, 1361 01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 1: Idaho or Bismarck, North Dakota. Just the way it is. 1362 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:13,200 Speaker 1: The NBA is regional. Those cities that have a team, 1363 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:15,520 Speaker 1: they root for the team that follow the team. I 1364 01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:18,400 Speaker 1: live in a non NBA city. You can't get the 1365 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:21,640 Speaker 1: NBA scores on the eleven o'clock news on TV. They 1366 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:24,520 Speaker 1: don't give it because no one cares. There's no team here. 1367 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, one, but I think it's yeah, but I think 1368 01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 4: it's different. Also, because the NFL was very intentional about 1369 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 4: the way they marketed their sport, going all the way 1370 01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:39,080 Speaker 4: back to the Roselle days. They made it about the 1371 01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,880 Speaker 4: team above everything, and so no matter who plays for 1372 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 4: the Green Bay Packers, you're always rooting for the Packers. 1373 01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:48,720 Speaker 4: The NBA promoted stars, particularly coming out of the laborer 1374 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,960 Speaker 4: Magic Johnson era, Michael Jordan. It was about the star, 1375 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:56,040 Speaker 4: Lebron James and those things because the game is so 1376 01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 4: transactional and people are changing. 1377 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:03,040 Speaker 3: When Lebron, his fans go with them. So they went from. 1378 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:06,240 Speaker 4: Cleveland to Miami back to Cleveland to LA Because you're 1379 01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 4: a Lebron fan, you rock with Lebron. You don't rock 1380 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,000 Speaker 4: with Oh, I'm a Cavs fan. That's who my team 1381 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:16,040 Speaker 4: is unless it's your city. So that's part of the difference, 1382 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 4: and that's also why it makes it hard. So think 1383 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 4: about all the people that were Dallas fans, all the 1384 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:23,600 Speaker 4: kids that were Lukadoncich. 1385 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:24,440 Speaker 3: Fans when he was with the MAVs. 1386 01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:26,920 Speaker 4: Do they continue to pour for the MAVs after they 1387 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:30,240 Speaker 4: traded their favorite player or do they become pseudo Lakers fans. 1388 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:31,920 Speaker 3: It's just the difference in. 1389 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:34,680 Speaker 4: Terms of how it was marketed, how the brands were 1390 01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:38,640 Speaker 4: established and built. Because basketball is one where you can 1391 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 4: see their faces and get an appreciation for the player 1392 01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 4: because look, you see them smile. When you're a gladiator 1393 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:46,800 Speaker 4: in football stuff, you don't see all that, so it's 1394 01:06:46,840 --> 01:06:49,200 Speaker 4: easier to fall in love with the team, not so 1395 01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:51,520 Speaker 4: much the player. That's also a big part of it. 1396 01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,600 Speaker 1: Bingle, you're right on, You're your spot on, you really all. 1397 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,920 Speaker 1: But I think the NBA right now seeds to promote 1398 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:58,920 Speaker 1: the new young stars. I think the days of Lebron 1399 01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:02,840 Speaker 1: and Kdal. I mean, they're great players, and Lebron one 1400 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:04,960 Speaker 1: of the best ever, but you know it's time to 1401 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 1: push them aside just a bit and stopped promoting like 1402 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:09,840 Speaker 1: the Anthony Edwards are the games. I mean the new 1403 01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:11,680 Speaker 1: guys they ant man, that's what they gotta do. 1404 01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, they a man. But then you know 1405 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 3: what they also have to do. 1406 01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 4: The players have to meet them halfway by being consistent, 1407 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 4: you know, Like we've seen a level of dominance from 1408 01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:24,120 Speaker 4: Lebron for twenty plus years, right we saw it from 1409 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,720 Speaker 4: Michael Jordan for a bunch of years. Like those stars 1410 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,720 Speaker 4: that earned the right to be the face of the NBA, 1411 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:32,840 Speaker 4: they were dominant players for a long time. As much 1412 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:36,280 Speaker 4: as we love Anthony Edwards, he had a fabulous playoff 1413 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 4: run that kind of brought him to life. He hasn't 1414 01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:41,400 Speaker 4: played at the same level that he played at that 1415 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:44,800 Speaker 4: previous year. I like Tyron Maxey. Tyron Maxey is good, 1416 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 4: but his team sucks, you know, in Philly like they're 1417 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:52,360 Speaker 4: so they're good players, but we expect and demand a lot. 1418 01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:54,600 Speaker 3: When it comes to our fandom and who we're going 1419 01:07:54,640 --> 01:07:55,640 Speaker 3: to follow as the face. 1420 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:59,160 Speaker 4: And right now we're talking about Kevin Durant, Steph Curry 1421 01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:01,680 Speaker 4: and Lebron James be in the faces of the NBA. 1422 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:05,760 Speaker 4: There's something wrong with that, and not just the marketability. 1423 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 4: But I would say it's the young players being. 1424 01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 3: Able to do it. But Andy quickly, I'll say it 1425 01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:14,120 Speaker 3: goes back to this Steph. 1426 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 4: Well, Lebron is a bit of the anomaly. But what 1427 01:08:17,280 --> 01:08:19,479 Speaker 4: used to happen is you had time to build your 1428 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:24,280 Speaker 4: brand in college because you stayed three years, and that 1429 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:26,519 Speaker 4: gave you enough time to fall in love with the 1430 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 4: development of the players so you could track him. I 1431 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,320 Speaker 4: would say the one and done era has certainly hurt them. 1432 01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:34,920 Speaker 4: Even though Lebron James is recognizable because he was a 1433 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 4: high school jump but he was a name. They had 1434 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 4: already built him up even before he left high school. 1435 01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 4: I think some of that has to do with do 1436 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:44,320 Speaker 4: we know these people? Because I'm be honest with you 1437 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:45,760 Speaker 4: when I turn them the game, I don't know a 1438 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:47,280 Speaker 4: bunch of the NBA star instead of playing. 1439 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:48,679 Speaker 3: I don't know those guys because I didn't. 1440 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 4: Watch him in the tournament and March Madness, so I 1441 01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:52,720 Speaker 4: definitely don't know him when they get to the NBA 1442 01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 4: if I didn't get a chance to see him in 1443 01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 4: the tournament. 1444 01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:57,080 Speaker 1: That's a great point. There really is. And also, if 1445 01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,879 Speaker 1: you follow a kid for three years in college, sometimes 1446 01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:01,840 Speaker 1: you had your fingers cross saying I hope my team 1447 01:09:01,920 --> 01:09:04,280 Speaker 1: gets this kid. That's what you were hoping for. Right 1448 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:06,479 Speaker 1: now you have no idea, you really don't. And the 1449 01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,559 Speaker 1: players right now in the NBA, they're gliding through the 1450 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:11,679 Speaker 1: regular season just to qualify for the playoffs. That's basically 1451 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 1: what they do. And there's complaints now about too many threes. 1452 01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:19,519 Speaker 1: You know, the teams are shooting up like thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, 1453 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 1: seventy seventy three point shots a game. So the question 1454 01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:26,559 Speaker 1: is which sport's more popular right now, the NBA or 1455 01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:29,760 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. I don't know. I still think the 1456 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:32,920 Speaker 1: NBA is. I think kids right now can relate to them. 1457 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:35,559 Speaker 1: The problem is with the young kids right now. They 1458 01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 1: can't afford a ticket to go see the NBA. That's 1459 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:40,719 Speaker 1: a major problem there. But how can we save it. 1460 01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:42,960 Speaker 1: It's real easy to kind of pick it apart and 1461 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 1: say there's problems. And I heard the commissioner the other 1462 01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:48,360 Speaker 1: day with Dan Patrick saying that, well, we need to 1463 01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 1: go from a twelve minute period to ten. They ain't 1464 01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 1: gonna get it done. You know, going from forty eight 1465 01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 1: minutes to forty that's not going to change things. Here's 1466 01:09:56,080 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 1: how you do it. And I put this in writing 1467 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 1: and I mail it to the mister Adam Silver the 1468 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 1: other day. If I get an answer from him, I'll 1469 01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:05,360 Speaker 1: let you know as soon as I get it, I promise. 1470 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:09,559 Speaker 1: All right, here's the deal. Here's the answer. Baseball has 1471 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:14,520 Speaker 1: a DH, a designated hitter. The NBA needs a DS, 1472 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,720 Speaker 1: a designated shooter, a designated three point shooter. Maybe you 1473 01:10:18,720 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 1: need two if you have one. Here's a deal. If 1474 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,759 Speaker 1: you're losing by three at the end of the game 1475 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 1: and you have that designated shooter, there's a good chance 1476 01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:29,760 Speaker 1: your team is going to double team that guy. So 1477 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 1: you probably need two. Two designated shooters. That's what you need. 1478 01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:35,799 Speaker 1: It's going to cut down on the number of threes 1479 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:38,400 Speaker 1: taken and maybe make the game a little more exciting. 1480 01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:41,519 Speaker 1: What do you think about a DS A designated shooter 1481 01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,320 Speaker 1: for the NBA, A designated three point shooter? 1482 01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:46,960 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know. If Disney's two point shooter, 1483 01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 4: you hit the shots. I think it's a skilled development 1484 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:51,799 Speaker 4: thing too, because I see a bunch of guys taking 1485 01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:52,919 Speaker 4: three point shots. 1486 01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:57,600 Speaker 3: They're all clanking the rim, I meant shots. So it 1487 01:10:57,680 --> 01:10:59,400 Speaker 3: becomes a boring game to watch. 1488 01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:03,439 Speaker 4: When everyone is shooting forty threes and no one is hitting. 1489 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:07,040 Speaker 4: It's just not an exciting game. Maybe they can shrink 1490 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 4: the shot clock. Look, I know it's twenty four seconds now. 1491 01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 4: Maybe they need to make it twenty seconds. Maybe they 1492 01:11:13,360 --> 01:11:15,240 Speaker 4: can speed the game up a little bit. 1493 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:17,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. I just know it's not a great 1494 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 3: game to watch. 1495 01:11:19,479 --> 01:11:21,760 Speaker 1: I agree, it's not a great thing, and I love it. 1496 01:11:21,880 --> 01:11:24,080 Speaker 3: I love the NBA a great product on TV. 1497 01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 1: I dreamt of working in the NBA my entire life. 1498 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:29,720 Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to do. And now if there's 1499 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:32,120 Speaker 1: an NBA game on TV, I just assume watch a 1500 01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:35,200 Speaker 1: college basketball game. Really, ray, I would do that. And 1501 01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:37,519 Speaker 1: I watched a lot of college basketball yesterday. I watched 1502 01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:41,479 Speaker 1: Kentucky Arkansas. I watched Saint John's Providence yesterday, a little 1503 01:11:41,479 --> 01:11:44,320 Speaker 1: bit of North Carolina Duke. I watch college basketball. I 1504 01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:47,280 Speaker 1: just think it's more competitive. I think these guys are hungrier. 1505 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 1: The games mean more. The regular season NBA game doesn't 1506 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 1: mean much. But I think if you want to cut 1507 01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,480 Speaker 1: down on the three point shots, you have a designated 1508 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:58,320 Speaker 1: shooter that one guy and only that one guy or 1509 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 1: two can shoot threes or in the game. I think 1510 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:02,240 Speaker 1: that's what you need to do. 1511 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:06,519 Speaker 3: So we're handcuffing who can shoot threes? So you have 1512 01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:08,560 Speaker 3: to go, how do we how do we designate that? 1513 01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:11,040 Speaker 4: Do we put like a little ribbon on their wrist 1514 01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:13,599 Speaker 4: and the guys with the ribbons they can shoot threes? 1515 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:14,599 Speaker 3: The other guys can't. 1516 01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to be something. I don't know. I 1517 01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 1: just you know, you do something, but maybe a different 1518 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:23,880 Speaker 1: colored jersey something like that. He's the three point guy. 1519 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,400 Speaker 1: But you gotta cut down. And they talked about me 1520 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 1: moving the three point line back. I don't want them 1521 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:31,040 Speaker 1: to do that because I'm a statistical nut and I 1522 01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,320 Speaker 1: think you take all the stats in the world and 1523 01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:35,679 Speaker 1: you start moving the line back, it doesn't mean anything 1524 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:37,479 Speaker 1: because you can say this guy broke the record. Well 1525 01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:39,759 Speaker 1: they broke and win when the line was this distance 1526 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 1: or that distance. It's like in football, you know, when 1527 01:12:42,400 --> 01:12:45,320 Speaker 1: they they talk about a guy rushing for a thousand yards, 1528 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 1: you know it doesn't mean anything anymore because they play 1529 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,479 Speaker 1: seventeen games. When Jimmy Brown did he did it in 1530 01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:54,200 Speaker 1: fourteen games. So it's it's stupid. The baramater doesn't mean 1531 01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:57,840 Speaker 1: anything anymore because they've changed the rules. They stretched it. 1532 01:12:59,640 --> 01:13:02,320 Speaker 4: Okay, I mean yeah, I mean like the rules and 1533 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:05,479 Speaker 4: certainly are definitely none of the rules and stuff have 1534 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:06,360 Speaker 4: certainly changed. 1535 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,360 Speaker 3: It certainly had an impact on those things. 1536 01:13:08,400 --> 01:13:11,240 Speaker 1: So I understand you're not buying it, to the frustration 1537 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:12,719 Speaker 1: I thought you would. 1538 01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 4: You not really my thing, Not really my thing. It 1539 01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:18,639 Speaker 4: doesn't need to shoot I think it's too hard. It's 1540 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,759 Speaker 4: not a thing. But i'd like I get it. Maybe 1541 01:13:22,040 --> 01:13:24,400 Speaker 4: maybe they moved a three point line even farther back. 1542 01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:27,920 Speaker 4: You know, I don't know, but something doesn't need to 1543 01:13:27,920 --> 01:13:30,920 Speaker 4: shoot out. I don't know how we get that through. Yeah, 1544 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:32,840 Speaker 4: they got to do something soon though, because it is 1545 01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:33,760 Speaker 4: it is a snoozer. 1546 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,000 Speaker 1: Really it's hard to watch, it really is. And then 1547 01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:39,720 Speaker 1: I again, I love the NBA, and it hurts me 1548 01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:42,360 Speaker 1: to see how it's deteriorated like it has. And they 1549 01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 1: may be the greatest athletes of the world. Seriously, those 1550 01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:47,880 Speaker 1: guys running up and down like five six seven miles 1551 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:50,800 Speaker 1: a night, every single night. It's tremendous. But I think 1552 01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:53,720 Speaker 1: it's maybe the season is too long, perhaps, and the 1553 01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:56,519 Speaker 1: playoffs are ridiculous. I mean, back when I was a kid, 1554 01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 1: the first rounds was three out of five. Every rounds 1555 01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:01,800 Speaker 1: four out of seven. Right now, pull it back a 1556 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:05,600 Speaker 1: little bit. Really, less is more. I really believe that 1557 01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:08,559 Speaker 1: less is more. But that's the way it is, all right. 1558 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:12,400 Speaker 1: He is Bucky Brooks, I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox 1559 01:14:12,479 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 1: Football Sunday and Fox Bots ready on the game that 1560 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:19,880 Speaker 1: even Adam Silver can't fix.

Andy you're forty four, about six behind. 1577 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:02,800 Speaker 1: If I don't think I could do that, I think 1578 01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:05,280 Speaker 1: at the super Bowl we stop.

He probably has that on a shirt. 1635 01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:49,559 Speaker 2: You know what, the back of his shirt like like 1636 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,760 Speaker 2: a jersey.
