Carson Palmer, former NFL quarterback, will join 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:44,639 Speaker 1: us a little bit later on. We'll talk about since 16 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: the Browns out of Nowhere, recapping basketball with Baylor out, 17 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: Tennessee out, Auburn out, Michigan State out, Wisconsin out, Illinois 18 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: is out. You have Iowa State and Saint Peter's. Those 19 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: are your Cinderella's stories. Now I look at Iowa State 20 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: and I guess the amazing part is, how did that 21 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: program go two and twenty two last year, didn't win 22 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: a conference game, and here they are on the Sweet sixteen. 23 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: Saint Peter's. I think it's Saint Peter's was located in 24 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: South Dakota or upstate New York, that we might look 25 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: at them differently, they'd be cuter. Let's put it that way. 26 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: Saint Peter's is in Jersey City, right across the river 27 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: from New York City, so you probably think, well, they 28 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: got all that talent around there in New York City basketball, 29 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: even New Jersey basketball. But Saint Peter's is there in 30 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen, and so is Iowa State. I watched 31 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: a lot of the Michigan State Duke game because I'm 32 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: watching thinking is this Coach K's last game? And not 33 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: that it became bigger than the outcome of the game, 34 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: but it's close because Michigan State going toe to toe 35 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: and tom Izzo always does well in the tournament, and 36 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: coach K the Dukies were holding on for dear life there. 37 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: But you know, this is a situation that's different because 38 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: we don't know when coach K's career is over. I 39 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: don't know if John wouldn't made it official that he 40 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: was coaching his last games when he was at UCLA 41 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: when they won the national title. He retired after winning 42 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 1: that national title in nineteen seventy five. But I don't remember. 43 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: I don't think I was old enough to remember or that, 44 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: you know, back then. I don't know if you had 45 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: this sort of farewell tour. But I don't know if 46 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: coach announced that this was going to be his last 47 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: tournament run. And maybe he did, but I just this 48 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: is a big, big build up here with coach k. 49 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: Here is Mike Shuzhevsky after the win yesterday against Michigan State. 50 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: I'm incredibly proud of my guys. This was a You 51 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: guys were terrific, man. I'm so I'm really proud to 52 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: be your coach. Yeah, that had nothing new were coaching 53 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: in those last four or five minutes. That all had 54 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: to do with heart and together in Nesan. They followed 55 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: their hearts and God bless them. You know, we're in 56 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: the Sweet six thing, so you can ask them questions. 57 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: He's emotional in a win. Here's Tom Azo, Michigan State 58 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: head coach. An average team without a lot of heart 59 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: might have just drifted into the sunset. And I thought 60 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: they reached down and in Mike Shashevsky fashion and did 61 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: an unbelievable job of kind of taking it at us, 62 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: and we just didn't have enough left. You know, Coach 63 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: is always gracious, he's a good guy, like Tom Azo 64 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: a lot. You know, he's probably got mixed emotions there 65 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: as well. You're facing Mike Shashevsky, you faced him before. 66 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: I think Michigan State has been bounced from the tournament. 67 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: Let me see if I have this stat. Mike Shashevsky 68 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: has knocked Michigan State out of the tournament five times. 69 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: So if you're Tom Izzo, it's like, all right, they 70 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: got me four times, and I'm on the ropes here 71 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: maybe getting knocked out again. But maybe I'm gonna be 72 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: the guy knocking coach k out of the coaching ranks. 73 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: But you know, if it's interesting, you know that the 74 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: tournament hasn't changed the structure of the tournament. I do 75 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: think that the regular season doesn't mean much to us. 76 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: We don't follow the names as closely as we once did. 77 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: Players are not staying around more than you know, one 78 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: or two years. Coaches are there forever, and that's who 79 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: you invest in, Like Jay Wright at Villanova. All Right, 80 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: you don't know who's on Villanova, but you know they 81 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: got Jay Wright, and therefore you invest in Jay Wright, 82 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 1: Tom Is at Michigan State. There are certain coaches where 83 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: you go that guy wins, and you might look at 84 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: Rick Barnes at Tennessee and go, no, he doesn't win. 85 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: Certain coaches you invest in tournament time because they know 86 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 1: what they're doing, and you can make a case that 87 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 1: these coaches, some of these coaches who survived have been 88 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: there before and certainly helps out the case, you know, 89 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: to advance. And you know, coach Ka talked about this 90 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: this one about coaching. It's about the players doing something 91 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: in the final four minutes. Now, he might be being 92 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: humbled there, but a lot of it comes down to, 93 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 1: you know, can you make free throws? Do you have 94 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: a point guard who knows what he's doing. Do you 95 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: not make stupid mistakes? And that's what Duke was able 96 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: to do. And that's all it takes. Ask Arizona. You 97 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: just want to survive and you're gonna every It feels 98 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: like every tournament, every team who wins a national title, 99 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: there's always a moment where you go, they could lose 100 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: earlier in the tournament, they could lose and you just 101 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: survive that one time, it feels like, and that's probably 102 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: what's going to happen this year with the eventual national 103 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: champ all Right, Seetan, what kind of poll question do 104 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: you have? The way are stat of the Day brought 105 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: to you by Panini America, The official Trading cards of 106 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: the DP show. Did North Carolina's Brady Manic deserve to 107 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: be tossed from the game against Bill Baylor? Okay, I'd 108 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: say no. I think that they let them play. You know, 109 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: as as as players, you're looking to see what they're 110 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 1: calling and not calling, and you know the elbow is up. 111 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: But I think it was a physically called game, and 112 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: I would probably put the onus or the blame on 113 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: the officials that you let it kind of get to 114 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: that point. But I would say no, I wouldn't have 115 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: tossed it. It feels kind of tough, though, to accidentally 116 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: elbow somebody that hard in the face. I mean, I 117 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: know it's a controversial call, but I kind of feel 118 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: like he should have gotten tossed. Okay, yeah, I saw it. 119 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: It's aggressive, but these guys are six nine, six ten, 120 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: so your arms are up. You know, it's not like 121 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: it's a five five guy that you elbow. You went 122 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: down low and elbowed him. I think your hands are up, 123 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: they're out and uh, you know, would I have whistled 124 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: him for a foul? Yes, But if you're going to 125 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: toss him, I mean, that's to me, it has to 126 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: be pretty egregious you're gonna toss somebody from a game. 127 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,559 Speaker 1: But if it was a five five guy, I would 128 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: be like, Oh, I get it. It's that's how he 129 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: elbowed him in the face. Instead, he elbowed a gigantic 130 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: dude in the face. Yeah, but there is they're similar heights, 131 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: their elbows are gonna be there in the right in 132 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: his face. Well, no, because I feel like you have 133 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: it exactly backwards. Actually, if it's harder to elbow somebody 134 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: equal height, you have to have your elbow all the 135 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: way up rather if the guy was sure you could 136 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: elbow him all the time in the face. Yeah, but 137 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: you're taught to box out with your arms up, not down. 138 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: So his arms were just up and therefore his elbow 139 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: is going to hit you right in the face. Let's 140 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: do a reenactment here, Okay, Are you gonna elbow me 141 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: in the face? Elbowing you in the face, because that's 142 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: gonna determine the well, because I don't think you should 143 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: have been tossed. So I will play the role of 144 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: the North Carolina player saying I shouldn't have been tossed 145 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: for Oh sorry, see yes. Oh by the way, pie 146 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: to the face day, Marvin. Yeah, mister Yukon Husky takes 147 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: a pie a little bit later on. Kind of dressed 148 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: down today, didn't he, And they're Marv, Yeah, I'm prepared 149 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: for today. Okay, I don't want to wear it like, oh, 150 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: let me wear my new stuff from Express or Lean 151 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: Soul like oh yeah, yes, yes, Todd. Can you distinguish 152 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: between reckless and egregious, because I don't think he should 153 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: have been thrown out either. Can you in the moment 154 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,719 Speaker 1: do something a bit reckless but it's not egregious enough 155 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: to ejected? Are they two separate things? It's hard to 156 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: judge intent. I mean, that's that's the thing. But it 157 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: was an aggressive game. I mean, you would think Baylor, 158 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a defensive minded team that helped him 159 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: win the national championship. But I did I didn't look 160 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 1: at it and say, boy, I think he tried to 161 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: hurt him there. I didn't know if there was another 162 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: incident with them, because sometimes you'll see that, like Buddy 163 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: Beaheim when he got tossed from the Big East Tournament 164 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 1: when he elbowed the Florida State kid. You know, there 165 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: was something on the same play where he thought he 166 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 1: got boxed out too hard and then he punched him 167 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: in the stomach. I didn't know if there was something 168 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: that led up to that. That's what I'd be curious 169 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 1: about because if there was, then it might have been 170 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: retaliation there. Yeah, Polly, But that Baylor turnaround, it was 171 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: like a body switching movie. I think they scored fifty 172 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: one points in the second half. And it's silly, don't 173 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: you find that fascina when you're watching a game, like, Wow, 174 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 1: this team's getting the housed. It's over. I'm gonna collect 175 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: at this window, and then all of a sudden, it 176 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: just goes completely opposite. I'm getting text messages from friends 177 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: and because I said, you know, North, I love North Carolina, 178 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: and you know they're blowing him out, and I'm like, yeah, 179 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: you called it, North Carolina. I stopped watching. Next thing, 180 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: I know, is nice call on North Carolina and I go, wait, 181 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: what just happened? Turn on the TV and I went, 182 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: oh my god, they had a twenty five point lead 183 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 1: TCU Arizona. I got Arizona win at all. But you 184 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: know what, TC, hold your head high. You got a 185 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: gripe because I would have called a foul there at 186 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: the very end, two seconds to go in regulation, I 187 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: would have called a foul on Arizona. Yeah. See, it's 188 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: a real shame that they're knocked out of the tournament 189 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: because that's a TC who's a fun team to watch. Yeah. Yeah, 190 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 1: This program brought to you by real credit card. Questions 191 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: require real people, somebody whom understands your issues works to 192 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: resolve them with you. That's why I Discover offers helpful 193 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: US based representatives available twenty four seven. Discover exceptionally common sense. 194 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: I also wondered about this, and maybe I can hear 195 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: from a referee or former referee, like why do you 196 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: do it? Because you never win? Right, Nobody says great job. 197 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: You get yelled at constantly and even some of the calls. 198 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,920 Speaker 1: You know, there was a technical call in the Illinois 199 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: game that was a bad call. There you know, there's 200 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: a couple of bad calls, but you expect that and 201 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: they do a great job most of the time. It's 202 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: just those small and you know the proliferation of gambling. 203 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: Now everything is viewed through a different lens. But you 204 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: know understand they're not They don't get the benefit of 205 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: replay when they make a call, like at the end 206 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: of the Arizona game, they have to call it. We 207 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: get to see all the angles and we're like, how 208 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 1: did you miss that? But I'm curious as an official, 209 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: why do you do it? Is it a power trip? 210 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: You like being involved in the sport, great exercise, You 211 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: enjoy the clothing. You just like I said, striped shirts 212 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: and tight pants. You just want to get your steps 213 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: in for the days back and forth. Yeah, it's a 214 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: good workout. I just I don't know. And look, I 215 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: had run ins with officials, and I told this story 216 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: that this long time legendary official in Cincinnati flipped off 217 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: my father during a game, actually put his hand behind 218 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: find his back and gave my father the finger. Now 219 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: that's a veteran move there, because I nobody saw it 220 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: except for my dad, and my dad was he thought 221 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: it was wonderful. He's like, I got to that official 222 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: he flipped me off. Yeah, Paul, do you think there's 223 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: any college or pro basketball coaches who go the opposite 224 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: tactic and just talk nicely to the officials, lavish them 225 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: with praise. Like Brad Stevens remember him at Butler. He 226 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: seemed like a guy who never yelled at the officials. 227 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 1: He seemed like he was discussing things with the officials, 228 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: and he was a very successful guy. It seems like 229 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: yelling is counterproductive to your goal of getting calls or 230 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: getting your team a win. Brad Stevens reminds me if 231 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: Jim Parsons played a college basketball coach from the Big 232 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: Bang Theory, Sheldon, excuse me, excuse, excuse me. You're doing 233 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: a great job. I don't want to interrumptier, but it 234 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: just feels like you may have you may have it, 235 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: may have missed that call. I think I may have 236 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: seen that play differently than you said. Could you come 237 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: when you get it, when you when you get a moment, 238 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: could you come over here and I just want to 239 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: talk to you. Yeah, just a little bit, Yes, Todd. 240 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: If you're an official, do you like instant replay? Well? 241 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: If your goal is to get the call correct. Like 242 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: you don't want to leave an arena or a football 243 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: field and you didn't get the call correctly. It's like 244 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: when the Saints played the Rams in the playoff game 245 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: and they missed the call and they had the opportunity 246 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: to get the call correct. That's when it's bad. You 247 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: can miss the call. I think officials have a hard 248 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: time having somebody tell them that they missed the call. 249 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: But your job is to get the call correct no 250 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 1: matter what. And I think if if we had used replay, 251 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: then you would have saved those officials from themselves in 252 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: the Rams Saints playoff game. But ego, I think gets 253 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: involved in this where you're like, no, no, that'saw it. No, 254 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: I got it. I'm in charge. Yeah, and I can 255 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: you miss you missed it? Yeah, you want to get 256 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: it right. But imagine any other job or walk of 257 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: life where you're constantly being second guest. Literally every little 258 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: thing you do, it could be looked at over and over, 259 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: getting a thousand different angles to show how you screwed 260 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: it up. That's got to be really rough to have 261 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: that kind of job. I know that's what you signed 262 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 1: up for it, but well we do that to you. 263 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: That's true, and I've learned to live with it someones, 264 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: you know, but I'm still having you know, I have 265 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: my moments. Yeah, that's got to be hard. And we 266 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: have the benefit of replay. We do playing backup slur 267 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: speech and everything. You're slurred speech. He wasn't even sure 268 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: if he should have shown up. To be fair, I 269 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: think Todd brought this up. We're picking right back up 270 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: where we left off, right into that. Yeah, Todd, Todd, sorry, 271 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: you walked right into it. I mean I asked for 272 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: that's all right? Yeah, yeah. You people trend their best, 273 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: are trying to be as creative. I mean, get the 274 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: calls right, just keep knocking your back down, you get 275 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: Why do you keep getting back up? To stay down 276 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: and let him count to ten? How about we just 277 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: get started with a good wake care everybody, Come on, 278 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: let's go. Come on. These officials can't book through guests. 279 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: I can't multitask not I can't book a guest, do 280 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: a poll questioning I play. All right, we'll come back. 281 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: We'll examine our brackets. Also best and worst of the weekend. 282 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: If you're an official and you can get through Operator 283 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: Tyler standing by I know a lot of people are 284 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: going to be calling in, but if you are a 285 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: referee college especially, I'd just like to hear from you 286 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: on what is it that you get out of officiating. 287 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: It's not money, you get some TV time, but I'd 288 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: be curious. I remember Leon Wood was a former NBA 289 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: player and then became an NBA official, And I'm thinking, 290 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: you know, you probably wouldn't want to become that after 291 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: being a player and dealing with officials and then you 292 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: become one of those officials. But I think Leon is 293 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: still officiating. Be sure to catch the live edition of 294 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: The Dan Patrick Show week days at nine am during 295 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeart 296 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: Radio a app. Michigan State lost again to Duke. I 297 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: think that's the fifth time coach k has defeated Michigan 298 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: State in the tournament. Michigan State head coach Timezzo joining 299 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: us on the program. Were you aware of that number, 300 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: coach that coach k is alce did you five times 301 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: in the tournament? Yeah? I'm aware of all those numbers. 302 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: You don't know any of the wins, but you know 303 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: all the losses. Yeah, what could you have done differently? Well? 304 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: The game plan was not to let them get into 305 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: the paint, and they drove us to death at the end. 306 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: I thought we did a poor job of taking away 307 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: the paint in the last five minutes of the game, 308 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: and they got in there and got fouled, made some 309 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: tough layups. Other than that, I thought we played awfully well. 310 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, They're a very talented team, 311 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 1: good team. We did a decent Joe, we just couldn't 312 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 1: finish the job. Conversation with coach k Uh did you 313 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: talk pregame or just post game? You know, we talked 314 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: pre game for a minute, but nothing about anything that's relevant, 315 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: and then a little bit after but maybe a little 316 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: more in the hallway after the press conference, you know. 317 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: And I mean, you've got to respect what he's done, 318 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: and I appreciate what he's done for basketball and definitely 319 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: for due But during the game, it was all about 320 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: wanting to win, and both guys wanted to win and 321 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: he did for the fifth time that as you, as 322 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: you remind me, I know I should I should have 323 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: started with something more like, hey man, well that was 324 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: a great coaching effort yesterday. Instead I lead with the negative. 325 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: So my bad. Well, we're two and two in the 326 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: last four, so you could have led with that. But 327 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 1: I don't blame you. I said, that's uh, that's been 328 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: a nemis for me that I haven't been able to 329 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: take care of and now I won't get that chance again. 330 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: But when it does it enter your mind at all 331 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: during the game that this could be coach Ka's last 332 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: game and you're going to take them out. I think 333 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: more before the game than during during the game. It's just, 334 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: you know, as they say, once the balls cost, all 335 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: those things are forgotten. I thought about it in the 336 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: last twenty seconds when we're down six and they were 337 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: shooting free throws, but other than that, didn't think about it. 338 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: During the game. You were pretty animated, like you were laughing. 339 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if you were laughing to avoid being 340 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: angry at the officiating, but the camera caught you laughing 341 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: a few times. Your head was on the scorers table 342 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: one time. What are you thinking about there with the officiating? 343 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: Oh god, are you trying to get me fine money 344 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: from you? I don't think you can get fine for that. 345 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: It was a pretty well officiated game. I thought there 346 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: was one stretch when there were three calls in a 347 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: row in the same possession. That bothered me. But other 348 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 1: than that, I don't care. I got you know, it 349 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 1: was a little bit of a home court advantage for him, 350 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: you know, playing right in their backyard. And and but 351 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: that's all I'll say about that. Well, they can't find 352 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: you if you say something like the officials were terrible 353 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: in that game. They weren't terrible. They were just there 354 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: were times in consistent. Yeah, there was a little inconsistency, 355 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, But I wouldn't say the officials cost us 356 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: the game. We didn't take care of business. They had 357 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: a five point lead with under five minutes. But I 358 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: think We're Duke really did a good job. And when 359 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: they got beat by North Carolina at the end of 360 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: that game, I thought they just settled for threes and 361 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: we're firing the ball all over and in our game 362 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: they didn't at all. One kid hit a big three. 363 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: But other than that, they drove the ball, got to 364 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 1: the free throw line, and that's what you do. Oh 365 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: that's the NCAA. I got rid of them. Okay, Yeah, 366 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: you don't need to hear from them that that that 367 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,880 Speaker 1: might be a five thousand dollar phone call. No, right now, 368 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't think the NCAA does much in Holliday. I 369 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: think they're afraid I'll sue him. Yeah, I don't think 370 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 1: the NCAA does much of anything. When do you look 371 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: at the game film of the Lost to Duke? I 372 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: did at eleven o'clock last night on the way home. 373 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: I watched the whole game boy. But then I'll watch 374 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 1: it today, you know, and just so i'ds fresh in 375 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: my mind, and then then move on, you know, either 376 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: try to figure about who you're going to recruit, or 377 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: who's transferring, or which portal you're going to go into, 378 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: or who's going to pay somebody or all the good 379 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: new rules that we have today that I can't stand personally. 380 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: But the game is change so much. I mean, you 381 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: talked about some of these things with the portals, but 382 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: but just the philosophy that everybody thinks. There's Steph Curry. 383 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: How do you, as a coach encourage or discourage somebody 384 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: from taking those those threes? You know, that is a 385 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 1: fine line because I think every kid, now, if you're 386 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: seven foot, there's no such thing as being inside. Everybody 387 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: wants to be a shooter. The problem is there's not 388 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: many Steph Curries, And I like the way Draymond does 389 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: it out there. He knows he's not Steph Curry, so 390 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: he just gets Steph Curry the shots. And yet trying 391 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: to encourage somebody in college to do that is a 392 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 1: little more difficult. Well, it might be as hard to 393 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: find it a Draymond Green or as it is as 394 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: Steph Curry. When you think about it, I think it's harder. 395 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 1: I think that's a great point. You know, even in 396 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: your point guards, you know, getting guys that make other 397 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: players better, as Magic would say, is harder every but 398 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: he wants to make themselves better. So that's one of 399 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: the challenges we have. And if you don't score more points, 400 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: you don't get as much in il money. If you 401 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: don't get more rebounds, you don't get as much in 402 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: line money. So kids have different reasons now to do 403 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: things that make it a little more difficult. And why 404 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 1: I think you've seen some coaches stepping down. Tomzzo fifty 405 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: four tournament wins, eight final four appearances ranks fifth all 406 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: time and winning percentage in the tournament just over seventy percent, 407 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: as a third behind coach k and John Caliperry. What 408 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: do you do differently in the tournament. There's certain coaches 409 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: we talk about. Certainly you're one of those. Where we 410 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: go Michigan State NCAA tournament. You know that is I 411 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: is going to do. Jay Wright's another guy that comes up. 412 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: And I know you have to have talent, but there's something. 413 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 1: Is there anything you're doing differently as opposed to the 414 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: regular season? You know, Dan, I think you develop a 415 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: culture where kids start believing that, you know, even though 416 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: it's not true. I mean, I said, our fans think 417 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: I golf, you know, November, December, January, and then start 418 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: working in February and then you know, do something in March. 419 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: That's not true. But um, I think something's the culture. 420 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: The former players, you know, everybody just has this belief. 421 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: And I gotta get him to start believing that in December. 422 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: That's my next goal. So this year, I'm gonna try 423 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:32,400 Speaker 1: to work the whole six months of one month. You're 424 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: tied with coach k for the most consecutive NCAA tournament 425 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: appearances at twenty four. I'm I'm rooting for you to 426 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: beat him next year. Yeah, yeah, me too, And maybe 427 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: I can't since he will not be there. Otherwise I 428 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: think I'm three and thirteen. I mean, you would probably 429 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: have the stat there because you're a stats guy. Yeah 430 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: you're you're three and thirteen against coach k all time. 431 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 1: But I was not bringing that up. I gave a 432 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: positive I told you about the eight Final Four appearances. Yeah, 433 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: that's not bad. I mean we got that in twenty 434 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: seven years. He's got twelve and forty two years. So 435 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: I guess I'm still in range of that one. But 436 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 1: he's earned everything he's gotten, you know. And and yet 437 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: I think we've we've done some incredible things here with 438 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 1: some to go. Dan, We're gonna We're not done yet. 439 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 1: The is that green shag carpeting that you have there? 440 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: It's not shag. I mean we're not in the seventies 441 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: you were in college. We're in uh you know, it's 442 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 1: it's very cut pile. Okay. Is it like AstroTurf? It 443 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: should be. You know, I'm a football fan, so maybe 444 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: that's a good thing. Maybe I'll change the astro turf. 445 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll get a little tougher. Are you Are you 446 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:53,919 Speaker 1: a Lions fan? Well, I am because I'm in this state. 447 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: But I grew up a Packer fan. I lived ninety 448 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: miles from Green Bay and everybody in the up where 449 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: I'm I was a Packers fan. Did you ever meet 450 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: Bart Star or Brett Farve? I did you know? Because 451 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: of my buddy Mary Uchi. Bart Starr came up to 452 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: our golf outing in the up a couple of times. 453 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 1: He was great. And Brett Farve came once or twice, 454 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: and I got a chance to meet him too through 455 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: Mary Uchi. But those guys were great. Haven't Matt Aaron 456 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: Rodgers yet? But maybe someday. Well he's there for maybe 457 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: another couple of years. Maybe Why don't you go to 458 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 1: a game? Oh, I've gone to a couple of Packer games. Yeah, 459 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,239 Speaker 1: because you take September, October, November, and December off, so 460 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: you could go to a lot of games there. Coach, 461 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 1: you're so right, But I do Matt Lafleur as a 462 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: guy that spent a lot of time in the state 463 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 1: of Michigan's coach, so I do get over there. In fact, 464 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,360 Speaker 1: talked to Matt during the playoffs, so I hopefully I'll 465 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: get over there one of his summer workouts. When is 466 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: your voice sounds? You know, it's been really good this year. 467 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 1: But I didn't get much sleep. And to the end 468 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: of Dan Patrick show, I said, I don't care if 469 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: I got up got the bed at four in the morning. 470 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:15,959 Speaker 1: I'm getting up early. Who's got the worst coaching voice? Worst? 471 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:22,199 Speaker 1: Called Bob Huggins. Bob's gotta have the worst voice, all right, 472 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: I tell Bobby looks the worst. You don't want to 473 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: get him angry though. I love Bobby's He's one of 474 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 1: the good guys in the profession. Doc Rivers has a 475 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: voice that has never changed, right that that's a coach's voice. 476 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: You know what Doc does. And uh, Doc's been a 477 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: good friend too. I coached in the Good Will Games 478 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: with him a few years ago, and he does a 479 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 1: great job and he's got a great voice. And he's 480 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: always tired too, because I would like to do that 481 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: for nine games. No way.

Yeah, that was disappointing 486 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: after you know, a year ago where they could have 487 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: won it all with Obi Toppin in that team, they 488 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: might have been as good as anybody. Thank you, coach. 489 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 1: Great to talk to you as always. Thanks Dan, that's Tomzo. 490 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. A couple of phone calls here. You know, 491 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: it's tough after a loss. Of course I lead with 492 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: the hey, didn't this the fifth time? Coach k is 493 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: not exactly a welcoming Matt there. Uh, let's see this 494 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: news in and this is this is not a surprise. 495 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: It shouldn't be if you listen to this program, because 496 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: I told you this probably back in October. This is 497 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 1: from the Athletic Zion Williamson not expected to return to 498 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 1: play this season, but he is making progress towards on 499 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: court work. Okay, I'll believe it when I see it, 500 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: but it is smart to shut him down. And I 501 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: thought they were going to shut him down in December. 502 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: Just announced that he's not coming back. The other story 503 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 1: to keep an eye on is Ben Simmons. This isn't 504 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons overcoming a mental block to be able to 505 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: come back. This is the physical part of this. He's 506 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: got back issues. There's a couple of injuries. If you 507 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: have feet or a back injury, those are the ones 508 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,360 Speaker 1: that are now I will say shoulder. If you're a quarterback. 509 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: But you know, those are the things that stay with you. 510 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: And you know Ben Simmons, they're not sure. I'm not 511 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 1: sure if he's going to be able to play how 512 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: much you'll be able to play. But that's a big 513 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: deal too to keep an eye on because the Nets 514 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: need him if they're going to challenge for a championship. 515 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: But Zion Williamson is not going to play the rest 516 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: of the year. Let's see Paul and Minnesota hypell what's 517 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: on your mind to day, Bud Dan, I've got the 518 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: best of the weekend and worst of the weekend all 519 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: rolled up in the same issue. All right, the best 520 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: of the weekend, Carlos Correa signing a three year deal 521 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 1: with my Minnesota Twins. Worst of the weekend. He can 522 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: opt out after the first year. Now I think it's 523 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: second year. I think it's two years there, Paul, thank you, 524 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: though he can opt out after the second year. As 525 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: far as guaranteed money or salary, I think he's like 526 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: fourth or fifth in baseball. And there was an interesting 527 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: stat about Carlos Correa. I thought the Yankees were going 528 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: to get him, like I always think the Yankees are 529 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: the Dodgers and it doesn't feel like the Yankees are 530 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: getting people with the regularity that we've come to expect. 531 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: I think Dave Roberts, the Dodger manager, is going to 532 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: join us later on this week. But you know, Carlos 533 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: Correa has more postseason victories than the entire Minnesota Twins 534 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: organization has. If you look at all all the playoff 535 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: wins he had in Houston. I think it's forty five, 536 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: and he has more wins than the Minnesota Twins half 537 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:12,959 Speaker 1: as a franchise. But you know, Carlos career two years 538 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: that he can opt out, but some big time money there. 539 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: Let's see Nathan and san Antonio. Hey Nathan, what's on 540 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: your mind? Hey Dan? Six week two O five? All right, 541 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: just want to chime in on the US. Why do 542 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: we officiate games? I do youth and adult basketball leagues, 543 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: and the youth sports is fun. You get to teach 544 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: the kids, you get to see them grow, even build 545 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: relationships with some of the kids, some of the parents 546 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: around the UH. The weekend a youth circuit, so it's 547 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. It's it's a great way to 548 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: stay close to the game. I used to play, but 549 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, can't do anymore. So it's it's a lot 550 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: of fun. It's a benefit. Of course. You get to 551 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: make a little extra money on the weekend that helps suit. 552 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: And you get yelled at. Yeah, but you know, as 553 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: you get yelled at, you get to know those people, 554 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: and you know, you build those relationships over time. They 555 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: trust you, they understand you. If you get to teach 556 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: people stuff they didn't even know. Oh that's a rule 557 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: I didn't know, So you know, it's great that way. Now, 558 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: the adult leagues different deal from mind, Dan. We're in Texas. 559 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: A lot of reps that I know that do the 560 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: adult leagues. Let's just say they don't come in there 561 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: empty handed. They're prepared. They're prepared for the worst.

I think it's been 575 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 1: six weeks since we had Carson Palmer on. That was 576 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: during Super Bowl week. Had him during the regular season. 577 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: Always appreciated his insights, certainly at the quarterbacking position. The 578 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: former Heisman Trophy winner at USC Are you a former 579 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: Heisman Trophy winner or you're just a Heisman Trophy winner. Yeah, 580 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: I think you get rid of the former part and 581 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:45,239 Speaker 1: just keep the Heisman Trophy winner sounds better. Okay, So 582 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: former NFL quarterback Heisman Trophy winner. Perfect? Okay, perfect? All right. So, 583 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: of all the things that have happened since the Super Bowl, 584 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: what's the number one thing that stood out to you? 585 00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: Good or bad? But I think the biggest stories Aaron 586 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: Rodgers went back to Green Bay on a new contract. 587 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: I mean that was the headline throughout the season obviously 588 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: last year this time and then last year this time, 589 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: all the way up through training camp before the season started. 590 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: But him back in Green Bay, still wearing the green 591 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: and yellow. I think it's the best for the NFL, 592 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: it's the best for Aaron, it's the best obviously for 593 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: the Packers and Packer fans themselves. You got the situation 594 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: with the Browns where it feels like Baker Mayfield may 595 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: have talked himself out of a job in that city 596 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: and they bring in DeShawn Watson. Let me start with 597 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. What kind of trade market do you think 598 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: there is for Baker Mayfield going into the last year 599 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: of his contract, coming off the injury. Well, there's there's 600 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: definitely a market for it. It's not the three or 601 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: four first round picks or two firsts and two seconds 602 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: or whatever it is that that the Cleveland Browns had 603 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 1: to give to the Houston Texans to get Deshaun Watson. 604 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: It's definitely they're not going to get their money back 605 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: on that. But there's there's somebody out there. There's too 606 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: many teams that need a quarterback, and Baker is a 607 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: much better upgrade than a lot of the guys that 608 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: these teams have on their rosters. So there's there's a 609 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: market for him. But unfortunately, right now, you know this 610 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: is that time, we should be talking about Baker's next 611 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: deal with the Browns. There they're negotiating it. They're still 612 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: kind of in that honeymoon phase. They only took him 613 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,320 Speaker 1: with the first pick in the draft a couple of 614 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: years ago. We should be talking about that. We should 615 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: not be talking about the friction between Baker and the 616 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: Browns and this kind of constant theme that has been 617 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 1: going on for a couple off seasons now. But I 618 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,560 Speaker 1: do think there is somebody out there that's willing to 619 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 1: give up something to get Baker. Okay, but if I 620 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: said to you could have Matt Ryan or Baker Mayfield 621 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis, I'd take Because of the situation that Indianapolis 622 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: Colts are in right now. They've got a veteran team, 623 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: they're one player away from being a contender. I take 624 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan. Yeah, I could see him going into that 625 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford role. He's a couple of years older than Matthew, 626 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 1: but I think that he's he's ready to go. The 627 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 1: role that Jimmy Garoppolo plays in all of this with 628 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: the musical chairs with quarterbacks is what he'll be Somewhere. 629 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 1: I think the Niners are waiting out post draft to 630 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: let teams really realize there aren't that many good quarterbacks 631 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 1: in this draft. We need a vet. He'll go somewhere 632 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: and he'll I think he'll actually drum up more demand 633 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: than what Baker he'll get as far as what the 634 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: team's going to get in return for a trade. But 635 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 1: there's definitely a market for Jimmy Garoppolo. Is there any 636 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 1: football concerns? Are there any football concerns about Deshaun Watson 637 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 1: just as a player, just as a quarterback? Zero zero. 638 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: I think he's, you know, within the top five best 639 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: players in the league. He changes your team instantly. He 640 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: brings a level of confidence to your team instantly, you know. 641 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: I know there's there's obviously a lot of guys that 642 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 1: love playing with Baker and have a tremendous amount of respect. 643 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: I've seen some quotes about the warrior that he was 644 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: and playing injured, playing through the shoulder and all that 645 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: he played through. But Deshaun's the same type of player. 646 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 1: You know, he puts it on the field. You get 647 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: everything he's got, you get it. You get it from 648 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,760 Speaker 1: him on a daily basis, on a weekly basis throughout 649 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: the season. I think Deshaun's gonna have a great year. 650 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 1: You combine Sean Deshaun with those two running backs, that 651 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 1: pass rush they have there in Cleveland, the opportunistic defense 652 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: on the back end that can get picks and get 653 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,760 Speaker 1: him the ball back, and more importantly, something that Deshaun 654 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: has not had an offensive line like the Cleveland Browns 655 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 1: since he got into the league. So seeing Deshaun play 656 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: with that group in front of him in Cleveland's gonna 657 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: be something new that we haven't seen him play with 658 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: at this level. How many massage therapists did you have 659 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: when you were playing? Just one? Just one, my guy, 660 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,800 Speaker 1: Dave Matthews and Phoenix. He's the best in the business, 661 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: actually works on a number of NFL guys. But if 662 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: you find you know, Massau's therapists are like anything, there's 663 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of them and only a very few select 664 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 1: hand you know, you know, top one percent are really 665 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: gifted and talented. It had been given a god given ability. 666 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,399 Speaker 1: So when you find that guy, I think we've heard 667 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson has found, you know, found his and spends 668 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 1: a lot of money on his guy. But finding the 669 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: right guy that can keep you together. Tom Brady with 670 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: Alex Guerrero for all the years he's been he's been playing. 671 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: Finding that right guy is priceless. Yeah, I've said that before. 672 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 1: I mentioned in the first hour of the show, I 673 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: have somebody who played thirteen years and played somebody else 674 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,839 Speaker 1: played nine and I said, how many massage therapists? And 675 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: they both said one? If you find the one. That's 676 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: why you have a serial pattern here with Deshaun Watson. 677 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: You don't have twenty two and you're not finding them 678 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:45,280 Speaker 1: on Instagram. Yeah, I mean I I don't know exactly 679 00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 1: what went on there. I don't know that we all 680 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: will or we all will for a little while, you know, 681 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,919 Speaker 1: until he gets cleared that he's able to play all 682 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 1: seventeen games for the Cleveland Browns. There's no suspensions until 683 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: we start hearing Matt chatter. We don't know where that 684 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 1: situation is. I haven't had you on since uh, you 685 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: know your Cardinals there with Kyler Murray. Is everything good 686 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 1: with your Cardinals here and his demands? I think everything 687 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: will be good when he signs his next contract. But 688 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 1: until that time, I mean, there's you know, it's been 689 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: a tumultuonless offseason for the for the Cardinals and for 690 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: Kyler obviously is this story is unfolded. But the chatter 691 00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: that's quieted down, I think he's a good sign. I 692 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: think it means they're making some headway on a new 693 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: contract or they've got some sort of agreement in place 694 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,920 Speaker 1: verbally when they will get to that contract discussion. So 695 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: the fact that it's been quiet all quiet on that 696 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 1: front is probably a good thing for the Carts. I 697 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 1: said at the time, and I firmly believe it that 698 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 1: the Chiefs got a deal, a bargain with Patrick Mahomes's contract, 699 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,839 Speaker 1: like once in three or four years, Like, what are 700 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: quarterbacks going to be making? And Mahomes that's gonna be 701 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,879 Speaker 1: a bargain. Yeah, Well that's the problem. And that's why 702 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: you've seen Aaron insistently signed shorter term deals because he 703 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 1: knows every three or four years, once that guaranteed money 704 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: is paid out on that portion of the contract, that 705 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: he's up for a new one. That's the problem with 706 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: a guy like Mahomes. And like to your point, the 707 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: Chiefs did the right thing by giving him a longer 708 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: term deal, more duration, more years. If they would have 709 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 1: given him a shorter deal, which he would have preferred 710 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:24,280 Speaker 1: and the Chiefs not preferred. He'd be up for renegotiation 711 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: probably after this season. But the longer the deal you signed. 712 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 1: That day you sign it, it looks really sexy and 713 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,439 Speaker 1: it looks really good. But when it's seven, eight, nine 714 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: year deal, once you get halfway through it, you're underpaid. 715 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz going to the Commanders. Have they found their quarterback? No? No, 716 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: I think it's a you know, it's a stop gap 717 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 1: for them. They're still searching. I feel like, you know, 718 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 1: you think back to those early days or RG three 719 00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: and then Kirk Cousins, and then Kirk Cousins wasn't good 720 00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: enough for him, but they kept paying him with the 721 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,319 Speaker 1: they kept tagging him and tagging him, and then he 722 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 1: was onto a new team and they got nothing for him. 723 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: It just doesn't seem like they know what they're doing 724 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: from a quarterback position. I mean, it's been a constant search. 725 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,359 Speaker 1: Not that the search is easy, but again, you just 726 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: saw the Indianapolis Colts go through it. I mean, and 727 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 1: the Commanders are in the same situation. They've got a 728 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 1: good offensive line, they've got a good defense that got 729 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: some really nice pieces, and they're a quarterback away. But 730 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 1: the Colts just showed you what you shouldn't do is 731 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: take on a one year contract or a two year 732 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: contract for a guy that you know has not played 733 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 1: well or played up to his potential in years. And 734 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,600 Speaker 1: I think we're going to see the same thing shake 735 00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 1: out in Washington that we saw shake out this past 736 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 1: season in indian I got you two and a half 737 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,280 Speaker 1: years younger than Tom Brady, and here he is coming back. Carson, 738 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 1: I wish your reaction. I don't think you can be 739 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: surprised with anything that happens with Brady. You know, I 740 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: never really bought into the retirement thing because you didn't 741 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 1: officially see him say it or really see any real 742 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: response from him on it. Um. But he's he's a 743 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: modern marvel. I mean, the guy keeps doing it. I 744 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 1: cannot imagine I woke up this morning early before the 745 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 1: show to get a workout in, and I cannot imagine 746 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: waking up early to get my workout on and get 747 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 1: getting prepared for next season at my age, let alone 748 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: at forty four. Yeah, if I gave you six months 749 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:23,399 Speaker 1: to get ready to play, to play in one game, 750 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 1: or play how about one, I could get through the 751 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: first half of the month. But once I got into 752 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: the locker room and my body had a chance to 753 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: cool down and I had I sat down on you know, 754 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,160 Speaker 1: in front of in front of my locker, on the bench, 755 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: I'd have a tough time getting back up to head 756 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: out to the stadium for the third quarter. I know 757 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: you do some great things that maybe people aren't aware of. 758 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: You're involved in Camp Rainbow Gold. Give you the opportunity 759 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: to talk about how special that place is to you.

You couldn't drive all the 862 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 1: way at back home, even though you had an eleven 863 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,399 Speaker 1: o'clock Sports Center, so you would eat, nap, hang out 864 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: right prep and you just come walking in, you know. 865 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 1: Down there you'd be making phone calls, checking in with 866 00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: Fritzie and I. And because the schedule is so long, yes, son, 867 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,839 Speaker 1: And then even after the three hour show from one 868 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 1: to four, a lot of times they pulled you to 869 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 1: the studio sooner because you had a pre tape interviews 870 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,879 Speaker 1: for Sports Center, So there was even that on top 871 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 1: of it.
