1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:05,280
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Oh what is going on?

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 2: Good Saturday morning to you, Brian Noan Jared Smith with

3
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 2: you this morning? Man, No rich Ornberger. Let's rip the

4
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 2: band aid off right away, Jared, you know, no rich Orenberger.

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 2: Today we got a lot of great stuff to get into. Huh.

6
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: We got football, of course on the menu. NBA playoffs.

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 2: We've got some golf stuff going on, with Scottie Scheffler

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 2: being arrested yesterday in the shooting five underbar. That was

9
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: crazy craziness. But we begin with the NBA playoffs here.

10
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: What's going on with your Nicks? Jeered Smith? I feel

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,879
Speaker 2: like I need to give you the floor past the

12
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 2: baton to you for the anchor leg of the four

13
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 2: by one hundred meter dash. You know, so you have

14
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 2: you have them losing Game six by thirteen points.

15
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: It really didn't even feel that close. No, it didn't.

16
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunton off to a bad start in the first

17
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 2: to have only scored five points. Josh Hart was hurt,

18
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: has some sort of abdominal soreness that he's dealing with.

19
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 2: Did not look like himself at all. Game seven is tomorrow.

20
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 2: Quick turnaround Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon game. And so the Knicks,

21
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 2: who are the walking wounded, quick turnaround in game seven,

22
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 2: that's not ideal for them. But what do you what

23
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 2: do you think about going into game seven for your

24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 2: your New York Knicks here?

25
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: Huh?

26
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 3: I think the garden is kind of the great equalizer.

27
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 3: It was obvious last night. And and I'll be honest,

28
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 3: I really thought the extra day of rass right, And

29
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 3: I think the NBA did this to stagger the last

30
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 3: few games of these important series.

31
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: Right now we get we get a game.

32
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 3: Six tonight in another series, and in a game seven

33
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 3: two game sevens tomorrow, and so we.

34
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: Kind of get this back and forth.

35
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 3: And I thought that extra day was really gonna help

36
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 3: the Knicks because they didn't play until, you know, earlier

37
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 3: in the week on Tuesday, and then they got, you know,

38
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: Friday's game six. So I thought that was going to

39
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 3: be an important extra day. But maybe Josh Harten needed

40
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: an extra week or maybe an extra month. I mean,

41
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 3: the dude's played so many minutes and it looked like

42
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 3: it finally caught up with him last night. Of course,

43
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 3: last one night was the night I was like, oh yeah,

44
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 3: extra day of rest, go over on all the points

45
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 3: of the rebounds and the assists. For Josh hart it's

46
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 3: gonna be a great bet that did not work out well.

47
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 3: It was obvious very early in the game that he

48
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 3: was fighting something, and I don't know what was going

49
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: on with Jalen Brunson last night. It just kind of

50
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 3: looked like the intensity level that the Knicks usually play

51
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: with Brian was maybe like a seven and a half,

52
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 3: and when you go on the road in the playoffs,

53
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 3: it needs to be a freaking eleven out a ten.

54
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 3: So I think they will feed off of some of

55
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 3: the energy in the garden tomorrow. I think that will

56
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 3: be kind of like a natural lubricant for them to

57
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 3: get going. But let's be honest, at the end of

58
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 3: the day, Jalen Brunson can't shoot forty percent from the

59
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 3: floor like Isaiah Hartenstein can't be held to seven rebounds

60
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 3: like he needs to be a double double machine. And

61
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 3: Brunson needs to be the scorer and need to get

62
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 3: thirty one points, but he needs to be much more effective,

63
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 3: much more efficient, And they have to be healthy because

64
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 3: when you make this rotation, which is already paper thin,

65
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 3: you know, you take Josh Hart off who's like the

66
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 3: Iron Man. It's just they kind of lose their heart

67
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 3: and soul. So I'm confident still, Brian, but I'm not

68
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 3: as confident as I was twenty four hours ago because I.

69
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: Really thought that extra day was going to help him

70
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: in Indiana. Yeah, no, I hear you.

71
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 2: And that's the thing is, I know you're not pointing

72
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 2: the finger at TIBs, but a lot of people are.

73
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 2: Tom Thibodeaux, head coach of the Knicks, he plays his

74
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: starters major minutes. This has been largely the knock on

75
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: him over the years. I'm not one of these people

76
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: that bashes TIBs by the way he plays his guys

77
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,400
Speaker 2: many minutes, right, And I think that, sure, some of

78
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: his guys can be taxed, right, they can be tired

79
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 2: at times, but there is a plus side because they battle.

80
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: Like Tibbs's fingerprints are all over just this Knicks culture.

81
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: It feels like we only say heat culture. That's the

82
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: only tame that we say culture with. But there's certainly

83
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: a Nicks culture. There is a vibe, there is a

84
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 2: feeling they are absolute grinders over there, and that traces

85
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 2: directly back to Tibbs's approach.

86
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: So I don't think that playing.

87
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 2: Your starter's major minutes is a drawback all across the board,

88
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 2: but a lot of people make it sound like that,

89
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 2: and I love this. I grabbed some audio right before

90
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 2: the show today, Oh Jared, because they got the Knicks

91
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 2: got blown out in game six last night, but stan

92
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: Van Gundy went on an epic rant at the end

93
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: of Game five. Right the Knicks won Game five by

94
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: thirty points, and stan Van Gundy on TNT he had

95
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: a message for everybody who's been bashing Tibbs because he's

96
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: been playing his starter's major minutes.

97
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 4: Call the top about Tom Thibodeau playing his guys too

98
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 4: many minutes has been absurd.

99
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 5: Anyway, everybody plays big minutes in the playoffs. If I

100
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 5: look back today, because they were going to be in

101
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 5: the studio, Vince Carter two thousand, two thousand and one

102
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 5: played forty five minutes a game in the playoffs. Did

103
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 5: the same thing in two thousand and four, two thousand

104
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 5: and five. In twy eighteen nineteen, the last seven games

105
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 5: for the Warriors in the playoffs, Draymond Green played over

106
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 5: forty minutes seven straight times.

107
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 4: Listen, everybody, every year.

108
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 5: The best players played big minutes in the playoffs. For

109
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 5: some reason, people want to jump on Tom Thibodeah. Look,

110
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 5: the Dallas Mavericks are playing an injured Luca Donshul's forty

111
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 5: one minutes a night, Kyrie Irving forty one minutes a night.

112
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 4: And they're at full health.

113
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 5: The Knicks are missing three starters, another rotation player in Bogdanaville.

114
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 5: This has been the most ridiculous talk of the playoffs.

115
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 4: You saw the Knicks tonight.

116
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 5: Does this look like the team that is worn out,

117
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 5: that is finished, that has nothing else to yield?

118
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 2: Not even I love the rant, and I love the

119
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: reaction from Brian Anderson, who was unplayed by play that game.

120
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 1: As k D would say, stand spending the night. Yeah,

121
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: I missed that part of it.

122
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 3: That's I did hear the rant, but I agree one

123
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 3: hundred it's it's it's ridiculous. It's the playoffs, guys, what

124
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 3: do you want them to sit?

125
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 6: Yeah?

126
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 1: What's the rotation gonna look like? Exactly? With everybody be

127
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: the stands and play. Yeah there's nobody left.

128
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've got like he said Julius Randall og Ananobi

129
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 2: Mitchell Robinson, those are starters who are all out right now. Okay,

130
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 2: and boy on Bogdanovic, who's nicked up. Look, Julius Randall

131
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 2: hurt his shoulder. That's not a thing, you know what

132
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: I mean? Like, not every injury directly traces back to TIBs.

133
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 1: It drives me crazy.

134
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 2: You could, okay, certain injuries if you look at og

135
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: Nanobi the hamstring injury, Okay, that's an injury that you

136
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 2: could say, hey, hey, the workload, I don't know, right, yeah,

137
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 2: but they may be injured though he was earlier this

138
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: that's right, two months.

139
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely, that's right.

140
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: But at least that's an injury you could say, I

141
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 2: don't know the major minutes, So you can't say that

142
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 2: about a shoulder injury. And it drives me crazy. No

143
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 2: one takes that into account when they're bashing TIBs. I

144
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 2: just think it's over the top. I don't blame them

145
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 2: for this stuff at all.

146
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: Totally agree.

147
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 3: And I listen, guys, you think these guys want to

148
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 3: be off the floor like Jalen Bronson does not want

149
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 3: to leave the floor like Josh Hart. These guys want

150
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 3: to play. That's why they've made it to this point.

151
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 3: They've made it to the point. They've made it to

152
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 3: because they buy into what Tibbs is selling. And let's

153
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 3: be honest, it is a UNI brand of basketball, not

154
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 3: it's not for everybody. Just like when you you know,

155
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 3: pick your workout routine. Some people like to go on

156
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 3: you know, the elliptical, which is a little more of

157
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 3: a relaxing experience. Some people, like like me recently, like

158
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 3: to go outside in one hundred degree heat and run

159
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 3: up a hill in the desert because they're trying to

160
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 3: get in shape. It's it's intense, it's not fun, but

161
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: they've chosen that path everyone who has made it to

162
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: this point. And and Julius Randol has history of being

163
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 3: hurt too, Like these are guys and the NBA in general.

164
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 3: I mean, look at the injury load management problem we're having.

165
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 3: Like it's not just Tibbs guys, this is a league

166
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 3: wide thing. Kawhi Leonard, I mean it I can go

167
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 3: like the list goes on and on. So I just

168
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 3: think there is a bias against certain coaches and certain

169
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: schemes because we need something to talk about, and this

170
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 3: is the hot button topic right now because it's in

171
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 3: our face.

172
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 1: It's obvious, it's recent. Recency. Bias is a hell of

173
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: a drug in the sports talk space.

174
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 3: So I just think the Knicks will go home, they'll

175
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 3: win Game seven, They'll get over the hump, They'll will

176
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 3: themselves to a victory because, let's be honest.

177
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: They are the better team in this series.

178
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 3: They've just kind of been hamstrung, pun intended by some

179
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: of this stuff. And then they'll Boston'll He'll do what

180
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 3: Boston will probably do and sleepwalk through the series and

181
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 3: be able to win because they're the deeper, better team.

182
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: So I don't think it matters frankly who wins this series.

183
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,719
Speaker 3: I hope it's the Dicks, but the Celtics are going

184
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 3: I mean, they're like a minus one thousand favorite to

185
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 3: go to the finals. It's crazy. But at the end

186
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,559
Speaker 3: of the day, Tibbs is gonna do what TIBs is

187
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 3: gonna do. This is why the Knicks hired them. They

188
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 3: believe in them, The team believes in them, and I

189
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 3: don't think there's gonna be a quit. There's no quit

190
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 3: in this team. They will literally put the hot dog

191
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 3: guy on the floor if they have to tomorrow, and

192
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 3: I think they will figure out a way to get

193
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 3: across the finish line.

194
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

195
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is uh, hey, man, it's just an unfortunate situation.

196
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 2: They're this banged up. But I think that once you

197
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: gain a reputation, it's hard to lose it. And Tibbs

198
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 2: gained a reputation a long time ago for playing his

199
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 2: guys major minutes. I think a lot of his traces

200
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: back many years ago Jared when Derrick Rose was with

201
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 2: the Bulls and tore his acl in the playoffs early

202
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 2: against the Sixers, And I think that Tibbs got branded

203
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 2: then and it just never really left.

204
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: But look, man, he's not the only guy.

205
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 2: If you look at ogn Nanobi when he was with

206
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: the Raptors, you look at the Raptors guys when Nick

207
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 2: Nurse was there, Jared, those guys were playing huge minutes.

208
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 2: Pascal Siakam van Vliet, those guys are playing heavy minutes.

209
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: But it's like Nick Nurse was never branded as the

210
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 2: guy who He's playing his guys way too many minutes.

211
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 2: It's been at Tibbs thing. I think it's been blown

212
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 2: out of proportion. I have a mini ran though not

213
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 2: quite Stan van Gundy esque. But oh, I was just

214
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: thinking about this last night. I missed Jeff van Gundy

215
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 2: and Jackson. They were tremendous. And look, Doris brook I

216
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 2: love her. I think she does a great job. JJ

217
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 2: Reddick absolutely knows his stuff. But it was so much

218
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 2: more fun with a Jeff and Mark Jackson.

219
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: It'd be like an NBA Finals.

220
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: Game going on, and they would talk about the most

221
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 2: random topics. They would go off on some tangent about

222
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: haircuts in general or whatever.

223
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 1: It was hilarious.

224
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 2: It was probably the closest thing we've gotten to the

225
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 2: TNT studio crew doing a game. You know, that's the

226
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 2: closest we have gotten to it. OOLM surprised they never

227
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: tried to do that. Yeah, they've dabbled with that. I

228
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 2: remember Barkley doing a couple of games here.

229
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: Remember that.

230
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, remember Barkley or Shack ever doing a game? Yeah,

231
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: I remember. Gosh, this is be good.

232
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 4: Though.

233
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 3: I think they should do like a simulcast where they're

234
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: in the studio and they're doing it and they're talking

235
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 3: over it. Yeah, that'd be fun, like for the regular season.

236
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 3: I mean, I know they might not keep the NBA, but.

237
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was weird because I don't think they can

238
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 2: go full TNT inside the NBA. Yeah, during a game,

239
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: I don't know it just feels so different, right, agreed,

240
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,440
Speaker 2: But man, I remember years ago. I think it was

241
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: still with the Heatles, I want to say, but they

242
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 2: were missing everybody, and I loaded up on like the

243
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 2: how was it? Maybe it was the other way around,

244
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: the Atlanta Hawks were missing all their guys or something

245
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 2: like that. I loaded up on Miami and Miami lost.

246
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 2: That happens all the time in the NBA during the

247
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 2: regular season.

248
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 3: You know. You know what's funny is like the regular

249
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 3: season discourse we talk about is these guys aren't playing

250
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 3: off play more, right, and now we get to the playoffs,

251
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 3: like no, no, don't stop playing.

252
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so weird, right, it's a good point. Hilarious.

253
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 2: You know, at the end of Jemi and Gundhy, remember

254
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: this at the end of Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson,

255
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 2: where there was so much negativity, where these guys and

256
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: Jeff Van Gundy so negative, He's always ranting about old

257
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 2: diner giving back soup. Man, it was so much more fun.

258
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: I found the rants hilarious half the time. I just

259
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 2: I missed those guys. They did a phenomenal job.

260
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 3: We get two game sevens tomorrow and I've been so

261
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 3: I've been really critical of the NBA postseason the last

262
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 3: couple of weeks because, let's be honest, a lot of

263
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,439
Speaker 3: these games are not fun. Meanwhile, we got multiple overtimes

264
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 3: in Dallas, Colorado hockey postseason Rangers scoring three goals in

265
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 3: the fourth period or in the third period to win

266
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 3: that game. So I do think tomorrow is gonna be

267
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 3: I hope, I hope we get to just.

268
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: Knock down drag out games.

269
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 3: I noticed the total in this teowl's Nuggets game tomorrow

270
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 3: is super low, like sub two hundred low. Yep, you're

271
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: paying the game seven tacks there, totally a little bit

272
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 3: higher than Nick Pacers game.

273
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 1: Historically you get unders in game seven Evans.

274
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 3: But I just hope we get two close games because

275
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 3: let's be honest, this postseason, the two Wolves, the entire postseason,

276
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 3: Brian have not played a game decided by less than

277
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 3: six points. Like it's just everything is kind of of

278
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 3: a stretcher legs two possession plus kind of vibe.

279
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: And then some of them are like twenty.

280
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 3: Possession pluses like we saw the other night with the

281
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 3: Denver Nuggets game. But I hope we get two elite

282
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 3: and frankly today with thunder Mavericks three elite matchups this

283
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 3: weekend to kind of get us into the right frame

284
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 3: of mind for the conference finals, because I don't think

285
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 3: there's gonna be a whole lot of drama in the East.

286
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: The West.

287
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 3: There will be, and you know, we'll see if we

288
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 3: get a challenger that can make Boston sweat a little

289
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 3: bit on the other side of the bracket.

290
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've got some thoughts on the blowouts in the playoffs.

291
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 2: We'll circle back to that this hour, because I find

292
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 2: that to be pretty interesting. There have been a lot

293
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 2: of blowouts. There have been some close games also, but

294
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: it feels like the close games get lost in the shuffle.

295
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just like another blowout already, right Like, So.

296
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: We'll circle back to that because I think that is interesting. Hey,

297
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:12,600
Speaker 2: Thoroughbred Racing has a new independent regulator. It's HAISA. That's right,

00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 2: very skilled, you know, outside shooting, versatile, gives you some

315
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: rebounding as well, some toughness.

316
00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:59,880

Speaker 2: It is Fox Sports Saturday right here on Fox Sports Radio.

337
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 2: So Scottie Scheffler, what a story here? Jared Goodness, So

338
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 2: he was arrested before round two of the BGA Championship

339
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 2: over there in Louisville this year and he was released and.

340
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: Then went out and shot five under.

341
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 2: Crazy. It worked out. So the story is there sadly,

342
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 2: there was a fatality. There was a death before round two.

343
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 2: There was a fan that was hit by a shuttle

344
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 2: bus and died, and so you can imagine there are

345
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 2: police all over the place. It's this huge scene and

346
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 2: here's Scotty Scheffler. He doesn't know there's been this fatality.

347
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 2: He's trying to get to the golf course. And his

348
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:55,600
Speaker 2: version is it was a giant misunderstanding. He didn't know

349
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 2: the police said stop, and he kept going and then

350
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 2: next thing you know, he's arrested. So there are two

351
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 2: very different accounts this was a statement. This is from

352
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: the police report, right, Jared. So it says Detective Gillis

353
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 2: stopped Scheffler and attempted to give instructions. Subject refused to

354
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: comply and accelerated forward, dragging Detective Gillis to the ground.

355
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 2: Detective Gillis suffered pain, swelling and abrasions to his left

356
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 2: wrist and knee.

357
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: So not good.

358
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 2: There are four charges. One is a felony charge. Yeah,

359
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 2: And so Scheffler was he was booked, you know, and

360
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 2: he said he was stretching in his jail cell just

361
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: in case he got out in time and could make

362
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,439
Speaker 2: it to the golf course for round two. He did,

363
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 2: and then he went out there and was fantastic. He

364
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 2: talked about it took me about an hour to get

365
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 2: rid of the shakes over here. This is not what

366
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 2: I had in mind this morning. But and he dealt

367
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 2: with all of that and played great yesterday. Yeah, this

368
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 2: is so I woke up. I was in Chicago this

369
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 2: week doing some work. I woke up to this story

370
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 2: and it almost felt like I was waking up in

371
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 2: some kind of an alternate reality, Like I almost like

372
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 2: I read the headline and it was Jeff Darlington, by

373
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: the way, unbelievable reporting by him. If you watch those videos,

374
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 2: that's a pretty high emotional scene and he kept his cool.

375
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 2: And based on the video that we saw, granted I

376
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 2: wasn't there and I didn't see the pre or you know,

377
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 2: any of the posts from that video that little minute

378
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 2: clip that we got, but it looked like Scotty was

379
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 2: pretty calm, Jeff Darlington was pretty calm.

380
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 3: Even the cops almost looked like they were just kind of, oh, yeah, well,

381
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 3: you know, he's going to jail.

382
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: Sorry.

383
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,879
Speaker 3: It was a bizar one of the most bizarre things

384
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 3: I think has happened in the golf world since Tiger's accident,

385
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,120
Speaker 3: and not the accident where he got into an accident,

386
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 3: but the accident where his ex wife kind of, you know, pushed.

387
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: Them a little bit.

388
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 3: I think there's so many I was trying to find

389
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 3: the words yesterday for this, Brian, I couldn't.

390
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: I think there's two things.

391
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,119
Speaker 3: First of all, obviously, condolences to the family of the

392
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 3: deceased victim. That's always the first thing, and I'm glad

393
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 3: that Scotti's statement made that very clear that that was

394
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 3: kind of the.

395
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 1: Reason for all the commotion in the first place.

396
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 3: But then you get to the post, right, all right,

397
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 3: so that happens, the misunderstanding occurs, and then the rest

398
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 3: of it was almost surreal. And I'm reading a lot

399
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 3: of things about the mugshot and having him dress up

400
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 3: in the orange jumpsuit. Like I have a friend that

401
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 3: works in the Louisville area, you know, in the news

402
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: department and you know, always on the assignment desk, and

403
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 3: she sees a lot of these mugshots that come in

404
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 3: from real like criminals, like you know, attempt at murder

405
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 3: type stuff, and they're not dressed up in the jumpsuit.

406
00:20:58,400 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: They're just in their normal clothes.

407
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 3: Now, I heard there might have been a change of

408
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 3: policy really recently, but the fact of the matter is,

409
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 3: it seemed like after it happened, the cops were kind

410
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: of buddy buddy with him in the jail cell and

411
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 3: they were giving him food, and it was almost like

412
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 3: it was just a surreal scene. And I think it'll

413
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,159
Speaker 3: all be resolved rather quickly. But the thing here is

414
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 3: Scotty going out and shooting this and winning, you know,

415
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 3: maybe winning this tournament this weekend would be one of

416
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 3: the crazy I mean golf ratings this week, I are

417
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 3: gonna be absolutely through the roof. But it's just I

418
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 3: almost don't even know what to say and respond like

419
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 3: it was just such a bizarre story and it all

420
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 3: happened so fast, and then he got back to the

421
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 3: course and play like it was just absolutely bizarre.

422
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 2: It really was, And man, we weren't there, Jared, I

423
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 2: really don't know. It's one of these deals where it

424
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 2: could have been just a misunderstanding. It could have been

425
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 2: a thing where Scotty was locked in and was just

426
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 2: he didn't take an order as seriously as he should have.

427
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 1: I don't know, I wasn't there. I really could be

428
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: either one.

429
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 2: I think that's fair to say, because I've been in

430
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 2: situations before where it was just a misunderstanding. I didn't

431
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 2: know I was disobeying in order. There was a similar

432
00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 2: situation there was on the highway in Indiana. There was

433
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 2: a fatality, a possible fatality car wreck down the road, sure,

434
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 2: and they were having everybody exit the highway and it

435
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 2: was weird. They had a car stopped like way before

436
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 2: the exit ramp, and so I'm like, do we exit

437
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 2: because everybody else was, But I'm like, maybe I can

438
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 2: keep going, So I kept going and a cop pulled

439
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 2: me over right away, and he was upset as if

440
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,439
Speaker 2: I directly disobeyed in order, and I'm like, it's just

441
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 2: a misunderstanding.

442
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 4: Man.

443
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: I didn't know all of us had to exit, so

444
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: it could be that I don't know. I don't know.

445
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 1: All I know is this. These are not suggestions.

446
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 2: When the cops tell you stop your vehicle like, this

447
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 2: is a direct So if Scotty disobeyed, that not what

448
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 2: you want to do. But in any event, you talk

449
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 2: about something that could shake you up, this is golf.

450
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 2: You're holding a golf club. If you've got the shakes,

451
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 2: not good, you know. And he got rid of all

452
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 2: of that and still shot five under. I know it

453
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: was a soft golf course yesterday, but if anything can

454
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 2: shake you up to the point where you don't shoot that, well,

455
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 2: it's that situation. And even that didn't throw him off.

456
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 2: He birdied the first hole.

457
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

458
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 3: And so to my understanding of the situation, he was

459
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 3: in a marked PGA vehicle while this was occurring, and

460
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 3: I don't think the police officer would have been as

461
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 3: aggressive as he was unless Scotty did do something to disobey.

462
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 3: But I also think charging him with a felony assault

463
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 3: of a police officer is kind of a bit much here,

464
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 3: Like that feels like, all right, he might have overreached

465
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,439
Speaker 3: a little bit too. Let's overcharge him with things to

466
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 3: make it look like he did something a little I now, granted,

467
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 3: you're right, I wasn't there. I'm not speaking from fact here.

468
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 3: This is my opinion of what I know about Scotty Scheffler.

469
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 3: I just don't think he would willingly run over a

470
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 3: police officer if he really thought that that was going

471
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,439
Speaker 3: to be the thing that deterred the situation, you know,

472
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 3: made the situation escalate. I don't get the vibe that

473
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,239
Speaker 3: Scotty wanted to escalate this situation. And of course we

474
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 3: are relying on Jeff Darlington, who was on site watching

475
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 3: this entire situation play out. The exact words he used

476
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 3: was the police officer attached himself to the car. Yeah,

477
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 3: it sounds like he was like Spider Man, like, what

478
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 3: does that mean? Attach himself to the car. Because here's

479
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 3: how I perceived the situation in my head. There's a

480
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 3: lot of tumult happening. Scotty's got to get to work.

481
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 3: All of the PGA officials and the players were told

482
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 3: that they can go through, and I'm sure Scotty was

483
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 3: given that information. Hey there's something going on, but you're

484
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 3: allowed to go through, right. It's almost like you've got

485
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 3: a credential and the security guard is stopping you, and

486
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,200
Speaker 3: the credentials like hidden or something and they can't see it.

487
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 3: But you're like, no, I'm good, and the CoP's like, well, no,

488
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 3: you're not. Where's your credential? And Scotty just tried to

489
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,679
Speaker 3: kind of skirt around it. And again, that wording really

490
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 3: is intriguing to me that Jeff Darlington used attached himself

491
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 3: to the car, because to me, that's like saying, Oh,

492
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 3: I punched this guy in the face and I'm gonna

493
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 3: suit him for breaking my knuckles like that.

494
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,439
Speaker 1: If the cop is like jumping on the hood of

495
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: the car.

496
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 3: And then Scotty stops and then the cop gets injured

497
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 3: in that process, I don't see how you can charge

498
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 3: him with a felony assault of a police officer.

499
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: That seems a bit much to me.

500
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 3: Now, again, we are speaking from all speculative purposes here.

501
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: The facts of the case. I'm sure some point will

502
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: play out.

503
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 3: Scotty seems pretty confident this is all gonna blow over

504
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 3: and it's a misunderstanding. And I'm kind of on his

505
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 3: side here, but I do need more information.

506
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: I need more facts.

507
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 3: I'd love to see the body cam of this cop

508
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 3: attaching himself to Scotty's vehicle. But it just it seems

509
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 3: like such a bizarre escalation, right, Brian. To go from

510
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 3: routine traffic misunderstanding to Scotty being hauled away in handcuffs

511
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 3: like that is a big jump.

512
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: And that's the part that I'm confused about.

513
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing is we're just playing a big

514
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 2: game of this could have been the case, you know

515
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 2: what I mean. So the other side of it is,

516
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 2: and I could see this Scotty is locked in right,

517
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 2: it's round two, it's freaking go time. He doesn't know

518
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 2: what the situation exactly is, and he's just got to

519
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 2: go to work, like you said, And all of a

520
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 2: sudden someone's telling him stop, and like you don't grasp

521
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 2: the severity of the situation in that moment. Let's say this,

522
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 2: a cop tells him to stop, and he is like,

523
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 2: why it's right there, I'm just right there to work, right,

524
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: And all of a sudden he starts going and maybe

525
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 2: the cop like tries to reach into the window and

526
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 2: says it stopped or whatever, and then he get kind

527
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 2: of what I heard happen, right, and then he gets

528
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 2: shoved to the ground based on the car, you know.

529
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 2: So if this guy gets injured and Scotty did not

530
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 2: obey a lawful order, right, that's a big deal.

531
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: So that could have been the case as well. I

532
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 1: just know this. I'll stick with what I know. When

533
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: the cop.

534
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 2: Is reaching in trying to pry him out of the car,

535
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 2: when you're getting hooked and booked and you're just trying

536
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 2: to process what is happening right now, to go out

537
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 2: and shoot five under after that, it's totally impressive, really,

538
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 2: And that's something that we know is the case. The

539
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 2: lead up to that, I don't know. It's a gray

540
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 2: area right now. Maybe it'll get sorted out. Maybe we'll

541
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 2: never know exactly what happened. But I hope they're gonna

542
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 2: have it.

543
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 3: On the Netflix special because that would be unbelievable.

544
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 8: Oh man.

545
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 3: Absolutely, And to be fair to Scotty too, like his

546
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 3: wife was about to give birth and he won the masters,

547
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 3: like this seat and I'm not de escalating this situation

548
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 3: at all, But in terms of like big picture life stuff,

549
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 3: that is miles ahead of what happened yesterday.

550
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: So I actually think he's gonna win this tournament. I

551
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 1: honestly do.

552
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 3: I think because Xanderschoff's got a history and we won't

553
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,119
Speaker 3: get into the golf analysis too much, but he's got

554
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 3: a history of kind of you know, choking things away

555
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 3: in major championships over the weekend at scott He's not

556
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 3: in that realm. He's kind of the opposite. So I

557
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 3: would not be shocked in the slightest if he won

558
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 3: this tournament.

559
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 2: Hey, hey, Mike, he's got a great shot, there's no

560
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 2: doubt about that. We'll get you some audio right around

561
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 2: the corner first, though, Man, I'll tell you what live

562
00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 2: and in living radio color audio from the one and

563
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 2: only Isaac Lowencron. I gotta apologize. It's probably one of

564
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 2: my worst lead ups to you. I beg you.

565
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 9: Right, all is forgiven well, speaking of lead ups and

566
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 9: speaking of what you guys were just talking about, among

567
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 9: other things that were trending on Twitter when all of

568
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 9: this happened yesterday. So CBS will be televising the final

569
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:34,520

570
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 9: trending was all right. Indeed, if Scottie Scheffler winds up

Speaker 6: here for a golf turn and I was I was

621
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 6: driving in this morning, trying to get to my warm

622
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 6: up time and get ready for the round of golf.

623
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 6: You know, I didn't really have an understanding of what

624
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 6: it transpired this morning, and you know, my main focus

625
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 6: after getting arrested was, you know, wondering if I could

626
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 6: be able to come back out here and play, and

627
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 6: you know, fortunately I was able to do that and

628
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 6: it was nice to put together a solid round today.

629
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 2: I thought he handled the post post round press conference

630
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 2: really well. I agree where it wasn't It wasn't just

631
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 2: about him, right, Jared. That was a really good way

632
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 2: to handle it. It was you know, he talked about

633
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 2: the victim, you know, passing away and his thoughts and

634
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 2: prayers with the family and all of that. He talked

635
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 2: about law enforcement, you know, that was important, whereas I've

636
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 2: got all the respect in the world for the jobs

637
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: that they do, and YadA YadA, that sort of thing,

638
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: and it was less about him and more about that.

639
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 2: That was a great You could tell pr was all

640
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 2: over this and it was like, Scotty, this is really important.

641
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: This is what you want to do. These are the

642
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: bullet points.

643
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 2: I thought he followed it very well, and we'll see

644
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 2: where it goes from here. He's gonna be I think

645
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 2: it's gonna be arraigned on Tuesday. Look, man, it's not

646
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 2: like he's gonna do hard time for anything like this.

647
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 2: This is not a big deal as far as you know,

648
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 2: future golf tournaments or anything like that. The question is

649
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: is he gonna win the PGA Championship, Because, like you said,

650
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 2: jaredy's right right there. He's just a couple of shots

651
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 2: off the lead, tied in fourth place. So he's absolutely

652
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 2: live to win this thing.

653
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 3: I would put my money on Scottie, and I agree

654
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 3: with the way he handled the post of this was

655
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 3: very classy. I did notice a lot of the police

656
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 3: officers on the course coming up to him yesterday and

657
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 3: kind of dapping him up, buddy, buddy.

658
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: And and I think this is speculating.

659
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 3: I'm assuming the Louisville Police Office probably got a call

660
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 3: from the mayor in some capacity and you know, hey, listen,

661
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,479
Speaker 3: we need to play this up. It was ironic because

662
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 3: the governor of Kentucky tweeted something out before the tournament like, oh,

663
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,879
Speaker 3: the beautiful, you know, beautiful course and you know, let's

664
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 3: welcome all the PGA players here with.

665
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: Open arms, warm welcome.

666
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 3: This week is the eyes of the golfing world fixate

667
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 3: on Valhalla and it just it was a retweet from

668
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:49,280
Speaker 3: freezing cold Takes.

669
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,320
Speaker 1: And again I think this is a meme. Golf Twitter

670
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: was in its bag yesterday, as they say it was.

671
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,439
Speaker 3: Some of the stuff was so funny, and I don't

672
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 3: want to laugh too much because again, they're a victim

673
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,720
Speaker 3: involved here. And I'm glad that Scottie addressed that first,

674
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 3: first and foremost and then tried to calm right to

675
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 3: me if he takes the high road here. If I

676
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,399
Speaker 3: had to predict it, as we normally do on this show,

677
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 3: I think the felony charges will get dismissed and it'll

678
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 3: be a misdemeanor and he'll pay the citation and we'll

679
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 3: move on and we won't talk about this anymore after

680
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:21,360
Speaker 3: a few months.

681
00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's most likely the way it's going to

682
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 2: go down. But crazy story, man, I've never seen anything

683
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 2: like it, No, especially in golf.

684
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 1: But here we are here, we are.

685
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 2: All right, right around the corner the par lay platter.

686
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 2: Jared Smith FSR, betting analyst, has been in the lab.

687
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 2: There's been smoke billowing out. He's been crunching numbers left

688
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 2: and right. So we will get to that right around

689
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 2: the corner. I'm Brian note no Rich Orenberger. Today we

690
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:51,720
Speaker 2: are pressing on and we will get to some betting

691
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 2: talk right around the corner. Very curious which sport it's

692
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 2: gonna be about. Maybe a little a true parlay platter.

693
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 2: Cross I don't know. I like being I like it

694
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 2: being thrown at me without knowing in advance.

695
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 1: I'll put it that way so well, I'll find out

696
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 1: texting it to you guys, then I saw you a service.

697
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: You could tease it up.

698
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 3: But if you want to be a surprised Brian, I'm

699
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 3: very good at the last second.

700
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: Oh, this is the last leg we're at in here.

701
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: There we go.

710
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 8: Check this out our late letter.

711
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 2: Okay, Jared, you've been hard at work, very curious what

712
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 2: you're about to unveil here with the platter.

713
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: What do you have for us?

714
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 3: Well, let's have some fun with reverse correlation. Right, We're

715
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 3: always talking about same game parl and you know they're

716
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 3: terrible backs in parlay this parlay that. Yeah, for the

717
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 3: most part, but you can always get a little extra

718
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 3: bang for your bucket you get creative. Let's try to

719
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 3: get creative here with MAVs Thunder Game six. So we're

720
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 3: gonna focus on Kyrie Irvin. We're gonna go over on

721
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,719
Speaker 3: one prop, we're gonna go under on another prop, and

722
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 3: then we're gonna put the MAVs on the money line

723
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 3: to spice this thing up at the end. So first,

724
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 3: let's go with the positive for Kyrie Irvin over five

725
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 3: and a half assists, what was going over this in

726
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,359
Speaker 3: five of seven games against the Thunder this series. He is,

727
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 3: in my opinion, the key distributor for the Mavericks for

728
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,280
Speaker 3: assists on thirteen potential assists.

729
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 1: I love the NBA Advanced Stats website.

730
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,919
Speaker 3: They let you track potential assists and that makes sense, right,

731
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 3: Kyrie makes a great pass, Dude, just bricks the shot. Well,

732
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 3: the average is about sixty five seventy percent converting those

733
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,399
Speaker 3: potential assists. Well, Kyrie way under that in Game five

734
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 3: for assists thirteen potentials. I mean, he was basically you know,

735
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 3: brick City with all the open looks that the Maverick

736
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,839
Speaker 3: we're getting off of his passes. So I think there's

737
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 3: gonna be a little bit more of a hey you're

738
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 3: at home role players played better at home. The shots

739
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 3: I think will fall at a higher rate in this game. Now,

740
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 3: let's talk about the negative for Kyrie Irving. The three

741
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 3: point prop. We're gonna go under two and a half,

742
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 3: and again it's kind of the same vibe. He has

743
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 3: been more of the distributor in this series. He's only

744
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 3: attempting twelve shots from the floor per game, three shots

745
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,879
Speaker 3: from deep. If you compare that to the last round

746
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,839
Speaker 3: against the Clippers eighteen and a half shots per game

747
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 3: from the floor, eight shots from deep. So again the

748
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 3: volume of shooting is down for Kyrie Irving. In the

749
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 3: last game, he went two of two from three, so

750
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 3: he obviously stayed under two and a half and he

751
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 3: made both shots.

752
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: I mean that is a highly efficient game.

753
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,919
Speaker 3: The only game he's gone over two and a half

754
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 3: make threes in this series is Game one when he

755
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 3: went three of four and again highly efficient shooting percentage

756
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 3: seventy five percent from deep. I don't think that is

757
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 3: going to happen here. So we'll go under two and

758
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,720
Speaker 3: a half. And then the final leg. As I mentioned,

759
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 3: just the Mavericks on the money line, this is the

760
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 3: highest spread at home for Dallas in this series.

761
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: Game three, they were basically an underdog.

762
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 3: It was a pick'm kind of but I would say

763
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 3: they closed as like a one point dog, and in

764
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 3: the Mavericks were minus one and a half closed two

765
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 3: to two and a half in game four. Now we're

766
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 3: seeing three and a half the spread for game six,

767
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 3: so the market's telling us Dallas is going to win

768
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 3: this game. And again the reverse correlation here, Brian, is

769
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:32,240
Speaker 3: where we're finding the value over assists under three point

770
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:35,360
Speaker 3: makes plus three fifty on this parlay. If we just

771
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 3: did the true odds of it, it should be about

772
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 3: plus three twenty. So that extra thirty cents bang.

773
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:40,879
Speaker 1: For your buck.

774
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 3: That's because of that reverse correlation going under on one

775
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 3: prop over on another.

776
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: As we focus on Kyrie irvingtime.

777
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 2: Man, I'll tell you this, I like what you're thinking

778
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 2: with Kyrie because you're right, he's been more of a

779
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 2: distributor than a scorer. They're sending bodies at him, obviously,

780
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 2: he's one of the keys for them to defend, and

781
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 2: they've done a really good job on him. They've got

782
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 2: some long defenders, you know, they've done a really good

783
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 2: job on Kyrie. So I like what you're thinking with

784
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 2: his props. I'm so curious to see how Okac punch

785
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 2: is back. Yeah, because last time in Dallas they had

786
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 2: a great fourth quarter. They pulled it out. This is

787
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 2: back's against the wall facing elimination. I want to see

788
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 2: how they punched back after a disappointing Game five. But hey, man,

789
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 2: I hope this hits for you. Hey, coming up next,

790
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 2: ball is back in a way. The schedule has been released. Oh,

791
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,720
Speaker 2: good morning everybody. I hope you're having a fantastic Saturday already.

792
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 2: So the NFL schedule has officially been announced. Happened this week, Jared,

793
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 2: And look, man, there's a lot to unpack, but we

794
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 2: can't go through all thirty two teams, you know, so

795
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 2: the big picture stuff I want to hone in on

796
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 2: your Jets. You know. Yeah, we started off talking about

797
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 2: your knicks to start the show. Let's talk about your

798
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 2: Jets over here. Six primetime games in the first eleven weeks.

799
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,399
Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, there's a standalone game they

800
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 2: play in London as well. So you've got seven of

801
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 2: the jets first eleven games where that's the only game

802
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,440
Speaker 2: going on at the time. So that's a big bet

803
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 2: on the Jets by the NFL that they're gonna be good,

804
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 2: gonna be relevant, gonna be a draw.

805
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: I get it. I think they can be.

806
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 2: But man, seven standalone games in the first eleven weeks.

807
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 2: That's a big bet on them.

808
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,439
Speaker 3: It is, and I hope it goes better than last

809
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 3: year because we saw this, We've already been down this road.

810
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 1: Those who forget history doomed to repeat it.

811
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 3: I don't think it was as many games last year,

812
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 3: but they were opening week Monday Night Football and Aaron

813
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,720
Speaker 3: Rodgers runs out with the American flag and twenty minutes

814
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 3: later is season's over. So I'm excited as a Jets fan,

815
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 3: I'm very excited. Here's what I'm more excited about. So

816
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 3: four of the first five games are against teams per

817
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:03,080
Speaker 3: Jet to win six or fewer games, three of them

818
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 3: against rookie quarterbacks playing away from home. You get New England, Denver,

819
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 3: and Minnesota. Now we don't know if it's going to

820
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 3: be a rookie in New England. I think Denver and Minnesota.

821
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,440
Speaker 3: I'm a little more confident that those rookies Nix and

822
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 3: excuse me, yeah, Nix and McCarthy will be the starters

823
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:22,800
Speaker 3: there day one, and I think you can maybe flip

824
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 3: a coin on Drake May. I mean, I don't know

825
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 3: how the Jets don't start four and one there, right,

826
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,720
Speaker 3: You know, for of those first five games against teams

827
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 3: with win totals of six and a half or fewer.

828
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 3: So I just I think the NFL is kind of

829
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 3: stacking the deck a little bit. And there are no

830
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,719
Speaker 3: coincidences with this schedule. For example, if you're a Dan

831
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 3: Patrick on the show or on his show earlier this week,

832
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 3: the Chiefs are in Buffalo the same week that Taylor

833
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 3: Swift is in Toronto. That is not a coincidence. That

834
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 3: is not a coincidence. The NFL knows where their bread

835
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 3: is buttered. They stacked the deck. For example, Carolina Panthers

836
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 3: have zero primetime games this year and that should not

837
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 3: surprise any of you. So I'm excited as a Jets fan.

838
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 3: I think as a football fan, the schedule releases kind

839
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 3: of like Christmas morning, and now we just try to

840
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 3: put some of the pieces together because there's some interesting

841
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:18,720
Speaker 3: nuances with some of this stuff.

842
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely there are. There are a lot of things

843
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 2: to look at. I like, there are a handful of

844
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 2: teams that play three road games in a row, like

845
00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,720
Speaker 2: three road games in three weeks. So those four teams,

846
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 2: it's the Bills, the Browns, the Bears, and the Vikings.

847
00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 2: So that's a tough stretch if you look at the

848
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 2: Bills in particular. So they start with the They have

849
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 2: the Dolphins in week two, so you go to Miami

850
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 2: on a short week on Thursday night and you deal

851
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 2: with the heat there. And then weeks four through six

852
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 2: you've got all on the road for the Bills, the Ravens,

853
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,320
Speaker 2: the Texans, and the Jets.

854
00:43:57,560 --> 00:43:59,360
Speaker 1: Well, that's a tough start for the Bills.

855
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 2: And think about that, Stefan Diggs is no longer a

856
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 2: bar to the Bills organization. So Josh Allen's got to

857
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 2: get used to the new receivers, the new roles that

858
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 2: are going on. We're figuring this stuff out on the fly.

859
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 2: And man, most of your first six games are tough opponents,

860
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:22,320
Speaker 2: including three road games in three weeks against the Ravens, Texans,

861
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 2: and Jets.

862
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: Not easy for Buffalo.

863
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 3: No. And so the first thing I look at when

864
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 3: and Warren Sharp does a really good job of breaking

865
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 3: this stuff down. And I give him credit for this.

866
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 3: He's the first one that turned me on to the

867
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:40,760
Speaker 3: net rest edge with the teams, and I think that, listen, guys,

868
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 3: it's hard to really tell who's going to be good

869
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 3: at what time, and the timing and this get like

870
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 3: we can get a general sense of that. Brian made

871
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 3: a good point about the road teams when you play

872
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 3: consecutive road games, where is your bye week? And then

873
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 3: the net rest edge to me is crucial because at

874
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 3: the end of the season and who is more rested

875
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 3: tends to be the team that is able to sprint

876
00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 3: to the finish line. And we saw this play out

877
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 3: with Baltimore last year when they kind of caught a

878
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,400
Speaker 3: couple of breaks down the stretch with the rest and

879
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 3: then they were able to sprint to the fit and out.

880
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 3: Then we're out in the postseason, which is a completely

881
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 3: different story. But they were able to get that number

882
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 3: one seed, they were able to clinch, they were able

883
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 3: to get Lamar Jackson across the finish line for the MVP,

884
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 3: and I just think those are the things that we

885
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:27,120
Speaker 3: look about. Well, guess what this year, the Ravens have

886
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:31,840
Speaker 3: the number one largest net rest edge in the history

887
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,360
Speaker 3: since Warren Sharp's been calculating this, which dates back thirty

888
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:39,400
Speaker 3: five years, So the Ravens kind of got an easy,

889
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 3: easy draw there. Meanwhile, on the other side, the largest

890
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 3: net rest disadvantage in terms of how many times you

891
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 3: play teams when they're more rested than you the Niners,

892
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 3: So it keep that in mind.

893
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:55,439
Speaker 1: If you want to bet over on the Ravens.

894
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 3: You should feel a little more confident that they're going

895
00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:59,239
Speaker 3: to be the more rested team down the stretch. You

896
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,280
Speaker 3: want to bet under on the Niners, you're more confident

897
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 3: that you're going to be on the right side of

898
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,840
Speaker 3: that rest advantage when the chips fall towards the end

899
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 3: of season. And of course, if we're betting win totals,

900
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,879
Speaker 3: I think, for me, Brian, I want if I'm betting

901
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 3: an over, I want an easy start because I want

902
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 3: to get out in front of that win total.

903
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 1: If I'm betting an under, I want a difficult start.

904
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,960
Speaker 3: Right. It's not rocket science here, but the net rest

905
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 3: advantage to me is absolutely crucial because this is a

906
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 3: physical sport and these guys the rest matters in December

907
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 3: and January.

908
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:32,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like it.

909
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,439
Speaker 2: And that's something you'll see in the NFL quite a bit,

910
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 2: especially with teams that have high expectations. If they get

911
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 2: off to a bit of a rocky start happens almost

912
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:46,040
Speaker 2: every year, that team will start to press and it

913
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,319
Speaker 2: starts to snowball. A team that's expected to be in

914
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 2: the playoffs for sure. It's like, yeah, they got off

915
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 2: to a rough start. They started, you know, it might

916
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 2: only be one and two, you know, and it starts

917
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 2: to get away from the It can happen. And so

918
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 2: I'm hearing you as far as what the path is

919
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the season, for sure, And you

920
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 2: mentioned the forty nine ers. So they're gonna play four

921
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 2: teams that are coming off of their bye week, and

922
00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 2: so the forty nine Ers play the Bills huge. Think

923
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 2: about this, The Bills, the Chiefs, the Cowboys, and the Seahawks,

924
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 2: all those teams are coming off their bye week. How

925
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 2: often do we talk about Andy Reid and the Chiefs

926
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 2: and what they do off of a bye week and

927
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 2: how they've done a great job to prepare for their

928
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,400
Speaker 2: next opponent, have a great record, all that sort of stuff.

929
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: So the forty nine Ers will get.

930
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,439
Speaker 2: The Chiefs, and the Chiefs will just be coming off

931
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 2: their bye week.

932
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,240
Speaker 1: That matters. That's an important thing to keep in mind.

933
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 1: It's huge.

934
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 3: And again, you can never overreact to this now because

935
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:56,880
Speaker 3: there's so many other variables that we don't know yet,

936
00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 3: and some of those games might be there, might be

937
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,760
Speaker 3: other injuries impacting those games where the team, even coming

938
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 3: off the bye week, is really banged up and the

939
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 3: rest isn't as important. Again, these are unknown variables that

940
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 3: we can't factor into any wagers that we want to

941
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 3: make pre flop on these teams.

942
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,080
Speaker 1: But from a betting perspective, these are the.

943
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,480
Speaker 3: Things that we look at, guys, and you know, Brian

944
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,799
Speaker 3: will talk to Crack tomorrow on the show, and you know,

945
00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 3: and as we get later on in the offseason, the

946
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 3: NFL futures market becomes more important.

947
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,919
Speaker 1: And when when when I.

948
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 3: Talk to the professional gamblers in our space, these are

949
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:33,839
Speaker 3: the things that we are talking about before we get

950
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:34,720
Speaker 3: to the season.

951
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,200
Speaker 1: And I can't I can't wait. Can we start the

952
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: season tomorrow?

953
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 3: The schedule released to me, is it really is like

954
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:46,399
Speaker 3: Christmas morning? Because now we have the denominator of who

955
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 3: the teams play and when, and we can start to

956
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 3: piece together how we feel these teams are going to play,

957
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 3: what the record's gonna be after five games, after ten games,

958
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,400
Speaker 3: and you know, where are the kind of roadblocks and

959
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 3: the obstacles that might be the turning points in the season,

960
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 3: some of those unique games, right, I think we get

961
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:04,799
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson going back for homecoming game, Like we get

962
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 3: all these like fun, little gorky little parts of the schedule.

963
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 3: I think one of the teams coming back from London.

964
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 3: I think it's the Jags don't have a bye week.

965
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 3: I saw that one of the teams, and that always

966
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 3: I'm always interested in that too. When you come back

967
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 3: as we have more international games than ever before, when

968
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:21,760
Speaker 3: you come.

969
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: Back from being overseas.

970
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,800
Speaker 3: Are you getting rest and how's that going to impact

971
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 3: the last you know, that little stretch. It just there's

972
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 3: so many quirks and nuances to the schedule and fitting

973
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 3: all the pieces together. Now we finally get it and

974
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:36,400
Speaker 3: we can start to, you know, make sense of it

975
00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 3: in our heads. But man, if you're not a Jets

976
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 3: or Aaron Rodgers fan, do not turn on your primetime

977
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 3: games the first two months of the.

978
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 1: Year because you're gonna be seeing a lot of Gang Green.

979
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,319
Speaker 1: You really will. That's what I started thinking about too.

980
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,800
Speaker 2: Where outside of Okay, you're in the middle of the season,

981
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 2: you're thinking about betting a game in Week nine, right,

982
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 2: the obvious is, hey, how did the these teams match up?

983
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 2: Who's injured? Those are the obvious ones. Do you look

984
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 2: at anything else more times than not? Right where the

985
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 2: NFL came out, And there are sites that put together

986
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,680
Speaker 2: the mileage the miles traveled based on the schedule. The

987
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,840
Speaker 2: Chargers will travel the most. They'll travel almost twenty seven

988
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 2: thousand miles. The Washington Commanders will travel the least. They

989
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:29,080
Speaker 2: travel just over ten thousand miles. So think about the

990
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:33,239
Speaker 2: difference between twenty seven thousand and ten thousand. Will you

991
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:37,480
Speaker 2: look at travel? Will you look at bye weeks? I mean,

992
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 2: what will you look at? It's a tough stretch of opponents,

993
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:43,719
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, it's their third road game

994
00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 2: in a row. Is there anything that you look at

995
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 2: more times than not aside from how these teams match

996
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:51,240
Speaker 2: up and who's injured?

997
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:58,920
Speaker 3: Traveling after primetime games? For example, when you play a

998
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 3: primetime game Monday night, Monday night, and then you've got

999
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,280
Speaker 3: to go on the road again the following week. Because

1000
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:07,839
Speaker 3: even if you do have to go on the road

1001
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:11,400
Speaker 3: the following week, barring unless it's like a really insane

1002
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,520
Speaker 3: travel situation, you will go back home first and then

1003
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 3: go back on.

1004
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:16,360
Speaker 1: The road a few days later.

1005
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,399
Speaker 3: But if your routine is already thrown off because you're

1006
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 3: playing late Sunday night or Monday night, and then you

1007
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:25,839
Speaker 3: go back home and then you're back on the road

1008
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,800
Speaker 3: the following week. That is I would say worth a

1009
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:33,480
Speaker 3: half a point maybe right there. Probably not more than

1010
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 3: that unless it's like a really intense travel situation.

1011
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 1: And yeah, the bye weeks matter.

1012
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 3: I'm always interested in when teams have bye weeks. For example,

1013
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 3: the Jets have a later bye week this year. I

1014
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 3: think that favors the Jets. They're an older team that matters.

1015
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 3: I don't want their bye week in week five. I

1016
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 3: want it in week fifteen. I want them to play

1017
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 3: the entire season pretty much, and I think it's in

1018
00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 3: week twelve this year.

1019
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 1: So you get that late.

1020
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:04,640
Speaker 3: By week, right, you play eleven consecutive weeks, you're all

1021
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 3: over the map, late games, primetime games, all over the map,

1022
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 3: and then you get a week twelve by week where

1023
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,839
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers, hopefully still upright by then, gets to take

1024
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,000
Speaker 3: his breath. The rest of the team, which is a

1025
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 3: very veteran laden team, gets to relax, and then you

1026
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,799
Speaker 3: only have to play thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eight,

1027
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 3: six weeks down the stretch. That finishing kick that favors

1028
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,440
Speaker 3: the Jets, I think. And if you're a younger team,

1029
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 3: like for example, I think CJ. Stroud last year had

1030
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 3: a very early bye week. I think that favors an

1031
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,319
Speaker 3: earlier I think that favors a younger quarterback where you

1032
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,120
Speaker 3: get a few weeks out of the gate to get

1033
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 3: your you know, get your feet wet, and then you

1034
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,319
Speaker 3: get the relax and kind of okay, what did I

1035
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 3: learn in this first month or two, and then you

1036
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 3: can conclude now, I guess most of the teams don't

1037
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 3: have that.

1038
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:52,800
Speaker 1: Most teams these days are pretty veteran laden.

1039
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 3: You know, there's always going to be older guys on

1040
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 3: the team that want the later bye week. But I

1041
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,960
Speaker 3: think at the quarterback position, if you're a rookie or

1042
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,480
Speaker 3: a first second year guy, I want an early bye week.

1043
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:03,799
Speaker 1: If you're an Aaron Rodgers, I want a later bye week.

1044
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,759
Speaker 3: And these aren't things that are gonna, you know, drastically

1045
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 3: impact how I view teams. But maybe you shade a

1046
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:12,400
Speaker 3: quarter of a win, you know, you bump the Jets

1047
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 3: total up a quarter of a win because they get

1048
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 3: that week twelve by and they get to kind of

1049
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 3: take your breath and then go to the stretch run.

1050
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,759
Speaker 3: So these are just some of the little things I

1051
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:25,000
Speaker 3: look for and the professional betters will look for before

1052
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 3: placing wagers on season win totals.

1053
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I look at what depends what you're talking about.

1054
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:32,520
Speaker 2: If it's a week to week thing or if it's

1055
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 2: a season win total thing, I'll give you a week

1056
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 2: to week thing.

1057
00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 1: I just look for spots, you know what I mean.

1058
00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 2: And that to me is for me personally, it's more

1059
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 2: of a like a gumbo stew. It's not just one

1060
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:47,359
Speaker 2: thing where it's like I'm looking at the travel and

1061
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 2: that's it. That might go into it, But it's a

1062
00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,280
Speaker 2: combination of things. It might be a little bit of travel.

1063
00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 2: It might be hey, this is a really tough stretch

1064
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 2: of opponents for this squad, or their opponent is coming

1065
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:02,760
Speaker 2: off bye week. You know, any number of things where

1066
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 2: there's a light bulb that goes off in your head

1067
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,560
Speaker 2: that says, hey, this is a good spot to bet

1068
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:11,399
Speaker 2: against the favorite, you know. So, I think it's more

1069
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 2: that it's a combination. To answer it, I don't have

1070
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:19,319
Speaker 2: one particular thing outside of matchups and injuries that I

1071
00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 2: hone in on and say this is my go to

1072
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 2: and this is why I'm backing the favorite or the dog.

1073
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 2: It's just a combination of stuff. You look for a

1074
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,719
Speaker 2: lot of things to try to figure out. Hey, this

1075
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 2: is just a good spot. Even though this is a

1076
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 2: really good team, this is just not a great week

1077
00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,240
Speaker 2: to back them, right, I think it's just a combination

1078
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:38,800
Speaker 2: of stuff.

1079
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'll give you a good example too.

1080
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 3: Caleb Williams right Bears number one pick, of course, rookie quarterback.

1081
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,839
Speaker 3: Easiest schedule in the NFL the first ten weeks. That's

1082
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,919
Speaker 3: very helpful. Now it gets top down the stretch. Only

1083
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 3: two home games the final six, but the first two

1084
00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 3: months of the year, Caleb Williams has a pretty soft landing.

1085
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 3: Would you want it? Do you want it like that?

1086
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 1: Jared?

1087
00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,840
Speaker 2: Like, really, it's a good question if you're thinking about

1088
00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 2: going over on the Bear season win total.

1089
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:09,759
Speaker 1: Yes, do you one?

1090
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,040
Speaker 3: You can always play under live in season. That's trigging

1091
00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:17,320
Speaker 3: it off to a hot start, that's true. But young rookie,

1092
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,480
Speaker 3: first time NFL starter, you know what I mean? Maybe

1093
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,840
Speaker 3: even though they're playing a lesser team, they're not firing

1094
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 3: at all cylinders. They drop a couple of those games

1095
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 3: early on, right, Right, there's an argument to be made

1096
00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:29,200
Speaker 3: the other way.

1097
00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 1: What do you think about that? Yeah, no, that that's

1098
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 1: a that's a valid argument.

1099
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,879
Speaker 3: I think if I had to choose, I would rather

1100
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 3: play the easier I would rather play the worst team

1101
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:41,640
Speaker 3: in the NFL my first, right, Like I think, if

1102
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 3: you're like, I just just thro throw the JV guys

1103
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:45,879
Speaker 3: and the hot dog guy from the stands out there.

1104
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 3: Let me get a win under my belt, let me

1105
00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 3: feel success in the NFL, and then.

1106
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 1: I'll deal with the adversity later.

1107
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:56,200
Speaker 3: Let's be honest, Caleb Williams gonna is gonna face adversity

1108
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,400
Speaker 3: this year. Guys, it's gonna happen. The Bears are not

1109
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,799
Speaker 3: this you know Juggernaut. Their defense is fantastic. I think

1110
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 3: that's the thing that's gonna help Caleb more than anything else.

1111
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,839
Speaker 3: And yeah, it is valid because if you do, Let's

1112
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,359
Speaker 3: say they do start oh to four against a very

1113
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 3: soft schedule.

1114
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,319
Speaker 1: Let's pull up the Bear schedule right now.

1115
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:20,560
Speaker 3: Let's say they start oh and four Titans, Texans, Colts, Rams, Panthers, Jags,

1116
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 3: and that Jags game's overseas. Let's say you start like

1117
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:30,520
Speaker 3: two and four there. Yeah, obviously that's less than ideal, right, right,

1118
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:35,399
Speaker 3: not great, Bob, but I would much rather him get

1119
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:39,880
Speaker 3: his feet wet against that than Ravens, Niners, Jets, and

1120
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 3: then you know you face and another interesting cork to

1121
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 3: the Bear schedule this year. They don't play a divisional

1122
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,879
Speaker 3: opponent until like Thanksgiving.

1123
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 1: It's really weird.

1124
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 2: That is strange, you know, I'm looking at I'm just

1125
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 2: curious thinking about CJ. Stroud last season, Yeah, and how

1126
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:58,800
Speaker 2: great of a year he had. I'm like, I'm curious

1127
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 2: who they started off against, still going right now? They

1128
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 2: were at Baltimore, remember that they're at Baltimore. They got

1129
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:07,200
Speaker 2: blown out twenty five to nine. But then it was

1130
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:14,839
Speaker 2: the Colts, Jags, Steelers, Falcons, Saints, Panthers, Buccaneers. Like, think

1131
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 2: of all those teams I rattled off, almost all of

1132
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 2: them are around five hundred right around there, right, They

1133
00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 2: weren't playing upper echelon teams.

1134
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:27,320
Speaker 3: No. So they lost that Carolina after the bye week though,

1135
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,920
Speaker 3: and that is that was crazy lost. That was I

1136
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 3: think CJ. Strout on the road last year. You could

1137
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:36,959
Speaker 3: tell wasn't as sharp in certain games. Right, they played

1138
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 3: that game against the Jets where he got banged up,

1139
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,960
Speaker 3: and they really got you know, knocked around in that game.

1140
00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 3: I think that's the key for Caleb Williams. Right, we

1141
00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 3: talked about the early part to his schedule, those tough

1142
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 3: road games at Green Bay last week of the year,

1143
00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 3: at San Francisco, at Detroit week thirteen, Week fourteen, well,

1144
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 3: you know, a week week fifteen at Minnesota. I would

1145
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:01,280
Speaker 3: rather play my tough road.

1146
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,960
Speaker 1: Games as a rookie later in the year. Winning on

1147
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: the road as a rookie ain't easy.

1148
00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 3: And if you know their first two road games at

1149
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,280
Speaker 3: Houston at India, I mean that's not a cake walk.

1150
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 3: But they're at home minus the the you know, the

1151
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 3: overseas game for three out of their first five. So

1152
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,640
Speaker 3: I think Caleb got the benefit of the doubt with

1153
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 3: the soft schedule early.

1154
00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,000
Speaker 1: No, I think it makes sense. It's good for the Bears.

1155
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 2: I think I think it's better than the other way around,

1156
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 2: even though you could look at it both ways. Real fast,

1157
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 2: Carolina last year two and fifteen on the season, they

1158
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:38,240
Speaker 2: beat the Texans fifteen to thirteen and they beat the

1159
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:43,080
Speaker 2: Falcons nine to seven. That's zero so season wins for

1160
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,960
Speaker 2: the care Why they got zero primetime game? That's exactly right. Hey,

1161
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:51,680
Speaker 2: Thoroughbred racing has a new independent regulator HAISA that's implementing

1162
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:54,919
Speaker 2: comprehensive reforms, and the sport is combining hands on care

1163
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:58,880
Speaker 2: with cutting edge technology to help keep its athletes safe.

1166
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,760
Speaker 2: Smith FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian No coming up next.

1167
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 2: The two best words in sports might not be what

1168
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 2: you think they are.

1169
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:13,840
Speaker 1: That's on the way.

1170
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 2: It's Fox Sports Saturday, right here on Fox Sports Radio.

1171
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 2: It is Fox Sports Saturday, right here on Fox Sports Radio.

1172
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 2: So tomorrow, Jared, we're treated to two game sevens.

1173
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:26,280
Speaker 4: Huh.

1174
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:27,400
Speaker 1: We got a pair of them.

1175
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:32,240
Speaker 2: We got the the Pacers and Knicks. They settle it,

1176
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:36,640
Speaker 2: and then we got the Timberwolves and Nuggets. So two

1177
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:39,400
Speaker 2: game sevens. That's a beautiful thing right there. Now here's

1178
00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,360
Speaker 2: the deal, man. We hear this all the time. You'll

1179
00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,920
Speaker 2: hear it tomorrow. Ah, two best words in sports. I

1180
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 2: tweeted this out.

1181
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,560
Speaker 3: A few days ago for another game seven Yeah did

1182
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 3: you really?

1183
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 9: Yeah?

1184
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,160
Speaker 1: For something else? Part of the hockey series.

1185
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 2: Part of the culture over there, jaredy Yeah, you know,

1186
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 2: I'm a follower here's what I'd like to say. Okay,

1187
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,880
Speaker 2: the two best words in sports are not Game seven.

1188
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:08,439
Speaker 2: The two best words in sports are super Bowl. Those

1189
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 2: are the two best words in sports. Cause here's the thing, man,

1190
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 2: I'm not against Game seven, Jared. I love Game seven,

1191
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:17,960
Speaker 2: but it's been put on a pedestal and it's not accurate. Okay,

1192
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,439
Speaker 2: the super Bowl is on the highest pedestal we got.

1193
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 2: I have a question for you tomorrow, Jared. Are you

1194
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,640
Speaker 2: going to invite a bunch of people over to your place?

1195
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:28,840
Speaker 2: So you're gonna go to a friend's house and it's

1196
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:32,080
Speaker 2: this huge party. No, you're not doing that. Do you

1197
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:36,840
Speaker 2: think Pacers, Nicks or t Wolves Nuggets will draw over

1198
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:41,360
Speaker 2: one hundred and ten million people watching like the super Bowl? No,

1199
01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:44,280
Speaker 2: my mind, it will, but no, not in reality, they

1200
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,200
Speaker 2: will not. Yeah, it's not gonna come even close. That's

1201
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,320
Speaker 2: the thing, man. The super Bowl is way more special.

1202
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 2: It's a much bigger event than any Game seven. And

1203
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 2: that's just the truth. So when I know two best

1204
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,600
Speaker 2: words in sports, game seven, it's like, when you stop

1205
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,919
Speaker 2: and think about it, no, that's false advertising.

1206
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:07,040
Speaker 3: I agree with your premise. Here is why Game seven

1207
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 3: is special. It's not scheduled. It's not planned. We don't

1208
01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 3: know if it's gonna happen or not. Could happen, might happen,

1209
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 3: probably won't happen. We've only had one this entire postseason,

1210
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 3: the super Bowl. We know when it's gonna be every

1211
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:25,680
Speaker 3: year it's there. It's reliable. You're right, And first of all,

1212
01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:27,720
Speaker 3: I'm glad you separated it into two words.

1213
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,080
Speaker 1: Some people still put it as one, which is a

1214
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 1: pet peeve. There don't.

1215
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 2: For another day. That used to be on my Twitter bio.

1216
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 2: Super Bowl is two words. That's when I went on

1217
01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 2: my tombstone, like, right, my goodness, that's why I love you, Brian.

1218
01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 3: But the reason why Game seven has this aura about

1219
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,440
Speaker 3: it and and yeah we can we can be nitpicky

1220
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 3: about the wording we use and and that stuff. But

1221
01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 3: the part that makes it special, and this is the

1222
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,000
Speaker 3: part that makes sports special. I always say the best

1223
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 3: reality TV is sports. Forget that real housewatch crap. It's

1224
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 3: because it's unscripted.

1225
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 1: Right.

1226
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,320
Speaker 3: The Knicks could have closed out the series last night,

1227
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:11,160
Speaker 3: could have been over, Nuggets, could have win in a

1228
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:13,280
Speaker 3: Minnesota and said, you know what, we don't want to

1229
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:17,840
Speaker 3: play a Game seven. We're good but that's not what happened.

1230
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 3: And now we get these two very I would call

1231
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 3: them very intriguing series. I think the winner of the

1232
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:27,680
Speaker 3: Nuggets two Wolves game is gonna win the NBA Finals.

1233
01:02:27,960 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 3: You want my prediction now, Yeah, And I think the

1234
01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 3: winner of the Knicks Pacers series is going to be

1235
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:35,760
Speaker 3: Lambs to the Slaughter to the Celtics. But that's another

1236
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 3: story for another day as well. We'll talk about that

1237
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:40,960
Speaker 3: next Saturday. But that, to me is what makes Game

1238
01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 3: seven special. Going into the series, we're hoping for Game seven,

1239
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 3: going into the NFL season, we are waiting for the

1240
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:50,200
Speaker 3: super Bowl.

1241
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 2: I hear you, And look, we live in a strange

1242
01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 2: time where if you say, hey, this is better than that,

1243
01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:05,200
Speaker 2: people think you're saying that, yes, it sucks, right, not

1244
01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 2: the case that I love Game seven. Game seven is fantastic.

1245
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,120
Speaker 2: It's for all the marbles, do or die, all that

1246
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:11,840
Speaker 2: type of stuff.

1247
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,400
Speaker 1: Those are better cliches. I like those cliches better.

1248
01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 2: It's great, but it's not what the Super Bowl is. No,

1249
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,800
Speaker 2: So that's the only thing I'm pushing back on the

1250
01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 2: two best words of sports. In sports, it's almost universal.

1251
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 2: If you went up to people on the street and said, hey,

1252
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:28,000
Speaker 2: we're the two best words in sports.

1253
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,080
Speaker 1: They'll say game seven. Oh my gosh.

1254
01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 2: If it's a sports fan and they almost everyone would say, oh,

1255
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:34,840
Speaker 2: game seven.

1256
01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:37,960
Speaker 1: I would say, now, when you stop and think about it,

1257
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:40,440
Speaker 1: we've been programmed. I'll push back. The best two words

1258
01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 1: in sports in my opinion or football season ball buffet.

1259
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,680
Speaker 1: Jeff Schwartz shout out Jeff Schwartz.

1260
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:52,520
Speaker 3: He tweeted me that this morning because I put out

1261
01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:55,440
Speaker 3: the hey, three hours of pure unfiltered ball, and he

1262
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,640
Speaker 3: responded kind of like a ball buffet.

1263
01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:00,960
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, that's when we do the shows. That's

1264
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:02,320
Speaker 1: that's my go to phrase.

1265
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 2: I love and I always say it's football, you know,

1266
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:08,840
Speaker 2: the ball buffet over there. But yeah, lots to go

1267
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,800
Speaker 2: on today, but uh, there you go. I say, the

1268
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 2: two best words in sports are actually super Bowl and

1269
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 2: uh you know, if Bush came to shove and you

1270
01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 2: had one or the other. How many people you think

1271
01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:21,480
Speaker 2: are taking Game seven over the Super Bowl?

1272
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 1: Jared No, Well, it depends on the series.

1273
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:28,040
Speaker 3: For example, Magic calves Game seven Eastern Conference quarterfinals. Yeah,

1274
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:30,920
Speaker 3: I don't know, not over the Super Bowl's taking that.

1275
01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:35,400
Speaker 2: Would you here's the question, maybe, would you take Nuggets

1276
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 2: Celtics Game seven NBA Finals.

1277
01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:42,080
Speaker 1: No, you wouldn't. No, you wouldn't.

1278
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't because it's the Celtics and the Nuggets.

1279
01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:50,440
Speaker 3: But if it was Nick's Nuggets, yeah, because I'm yeah,

1280
01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 3: that's different.

1281
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 1: Because the Jets.

1282
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:53,560
Speaker 3: Aren't going to be in the super Bowl probably till

1283
01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 3: I'm dead, So I have to choose my words wisely,

1284
01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,040
Speaker 3: or Brian, I only get so many teams in New

1285
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:00,680
Speaker 3: York that actually success.

1286
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:02,640
Speaker 1: I know, I hear you on that.

1287
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:06,200
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of choosing your words wisely, we have a

1288
01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 2: guy here who does that every single time, and he

1289
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:10,760
Speaker 2: mixes it with the.

1290
01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:15,280
Speaker 1: Dash of comedy as well. Hits our guy, Isaac Blowen Krown.

1291
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:16,200
Speaker 1: I Loo, what's going on?

1292
01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 4: Buddy?

1293
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:19,760
Speaker 9: Just would like to add a nominee to the best

1294
01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:21,560
Speaker 9: two words in sports conversation?

1295
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 2: That is the new back to you guys.

1296
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:36,040
Speaker 9: Uh, you anticipate my massive ego. So remember a couple

1297
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:38,400
Speaker 9: of years ago, there was a college football game, I

1298
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:42,480
Speaker 9: think it was between Nebraska and Northwestern and Ireland, and

1299
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 9: there was a plot. It was a It was a

1300
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:51,560
Speaker 9: cashless stadium, so everything, all the concessions were transacted via

1301
01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:54,880
Speaker 9: computer because it was a cashle stadium and the computer

1302
01:05:55,120 --> 01:06:00,240
Speaker 9: across the stadium broke. So it was literally free beer.

1303
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 9: So that's my nominee for the best two.

1304
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:03,680
Speaker 1: Yes, free beer.

1305
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:04,280
Speaker 8: There you go.

1306
01:06:04,680 --> 01:06:06,400
Speaker 1: I'll be honest. That's on the Mount Rushmore.

1307
01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 2: Now, hey, beer at beer at the Big House, right,

1308
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 2: Michigan's gonna have alcohol there this season. Wow, that's right,

1309
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 2: that's right.

1310
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:17,400
Speaker 9: So yeah, so the concept of free beer it actually

1311
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:21,200
Speaker 9: did happen, albeit across the pond. We will start on

1312
01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 9: this side of the pond. With Game six of the

Speaker 1: Back for Pavelski couldn't shoot? Clearly, Marchmitt, where is.

1321
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:52,439
Speaker 8: It to Shane Beasts?

1322
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:55,280
Speaker 1: Who else could it be?

1323
01:06:55,800 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 7: Matt Dushane in Colorado, he's the Avalanche.

1324
01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:02,800
Speaker 2: Season and he has.

Speaker 9: Conference Finals. There, they eliminated the Boston Bruins in Game six,

1328
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:16,439

1339
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,480
Speaker 2: Sports Saturday here on Fox Sports Radio.

1340
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,000
Speaker 1: You know, Jared, I got a couple of rants. I

1341
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 1: got a couple of rants over saw this in the rundown.

1342
01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:56,960
Speaker 1: I'm curious.

1343
01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you might agree with this first one. Okay,

1344
01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,000
Speaker 2: I don't want to lead the witness or anything here.

1345
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:09,280
Speaker 2: You tell me how you honestly feel if you disagree

1346
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 2: with this, it's totally fine when you look at the

1347
01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:17,280
Speaker 2: We just had the NBA Draft lottery, right, and so

1348
01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:21,720
Speaker 2: the NBA draft coming up here in what late June, right,

1349
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,000
Speaker 2: a little more than a month, I think, Yeah, so

1350
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:28,240
Speaker 2: you're hearing a lot of Oh, there's this draft.

1351
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:29,479
Speaker 1: It's got a lot.

1352
01:08:29,320 --> 01:08:34,080
Speaker 2: Of good players, maybe some role players, no stars, absolutely,

1353
01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:38,280
Speaker 2: no difference makers. Maybe a couple of fringe dudes who

1354
01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:41,840
Speaker 2: can work their way into the rotation. That's typically what

1355
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:45,680
Speaker 2: you hear. And here's my thing, how do we know

1356
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:46,560
Speaker 2: that exactly?

1357
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:50,000
Speaker 1: How do we know that? Think about the NBA playoffs

1358
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:50,439
Speaker 1: right now?

1359
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:54,879
Speaker 2: Jared, you've got Jalen Brunson, second round pick, who's largely

1360
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 2: been sensational. Okay, nobody saw him being a star when

1361
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:04,479
Speaker 2: he's a thirty third overall pick. Nicola Jokic late second rounder. Right,

1362
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:08,560
Speaker 2: He's been the MVB three of the last four seasons.

1363
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:13,080
Speaker 2: He's a champion, they won a title last season. No

1364
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 2: one expected him to be anything remotely close to a

1365
01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:22,120
Speaker 2: star player when he was drafted. It was a commercial

1366
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:27,000
Speaker 2: break going on the ESPN telecas Yes, a graphic popped

1367
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:32,200
Speaker 2: up Nuggets draft Nicola Yo we during a Taco Bell commercial.

1368
01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 2: That's how little was expected of Nicola Jokic. So when

1369
01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:40,280
Speaker 2: I hear this about the NBA Draft lottery and the

1370
01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 2: upcoming draft, oh, no stars, no difference makers, maybe some

1371
01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:48,599
Speaker 2: role players, I'm just like, and we know this, how right,

1372
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:51,960
Speaker 2: Like there are typically surprises in drafts, and this could

1373
01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 2: be another one where there's at least a star.

1374
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:55,519
Speaker 1: I hate hearing that.

1375
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:01,960
Speaker 3: I think the draft, the discourse around the NFL and

1376
01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:06,840
Speaker 3: the NBA draft in terms of grading the players before

1377
01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 3: they even like put on the hat of their new team,

1378
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:14,400
Speaker 3: I think is just you know, for show. It's it's

1379
01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:16,679
Speaker 3: it's for polish, it's so we can talk about something

1380
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,040
Speaker 3: on these shows. I do think there's gonna be one

1381
01:10:20,040 --> 01:10:21,840
Speaker 3: of these guys that's gonna be a rock star, an

1382
01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:22,800
Speaker 3: absolute rock star.

1383
01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 1: I have no idea who it is.

1384
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 3: I don't even know it's gonna be on which team

1385
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:30,360
Speaker 3: yet where they fit in. So it's something that we

1386
01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:33,519
Speaker 3: have to do because we have hours of airtime to fill.

1387
01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:38,360
Speaker 3: But I agree with the premise that we need to

1388
01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:40,280
Speaker 3: let these kids breathe a little. Most of them are

1389
01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,559
Speaker 3: like eighteen nineteen years old, Like, can we let them

1390
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:46,160
Speaker 3: like be a kid for a minute and enjoy this

1391
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,960
Speaker 3: moment before we're grading them in terms of how what

1392
01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:50,680
Speaker 3: their entire career is going to play out with.

1393
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:52,160
Speaker 1: And I think.

1394
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:55,360
Speaker 3: The part of it that I disagree with is we

1395
01:10:55,400 --> 01:11:00,840
Speaker 3: don't have that transcendent player coming into the draft like

1396
01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 3: we have had in years prior, like a Weben Yama recently.

1397
01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:05,640
Speaker 1: You want to go back a little further.

1398
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:11,920
Speaker 3: Lebron, but it's impossible to grade how good these kids

1399
01:11:11,960 --> 01:11:15,840
Speaker 3: are going to be before they even get their teams.

1400
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:19,440
Speaker 2: Yempt No, yeah, and that's the good you know, counterpoint

1401
01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:24,320
Speaker 2: is and it's not in complete disagreement with the original point.

1402
01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:27,320
Speaker 1: But give you an example. The Detroit Pistons.

1403
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:30,919
Speaker 2: Okay, so this is the second straight year they finished

1404
01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 2: with the worst record. We got hoes man, but they

1405
01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:37,960
Speaker 2: fell to the number five protal two years in a row.

1406
01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:40,080
Speaker 1: Now, it hurt them way more.

1407
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:43,160
Speaker 2: Last year because they could have drafted Wembin Yama. I

1408
01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:46,040
Speaker 2: get that in this year's draft, there's not a prospect

1409
01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:49,400
Speaker 2: that looks to be as good as Webbin Yama.

1410
01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:50,719
Speaker 1: That's totally fine.

1411
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 2: I get all of that, But to act like, oh,

1412
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:57,639
Speaker 2: there are no stars, no difference makers. For sure, maybe

1413
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,280
Speaker 2: some good starters, maybe maybe a good role player here

1414
01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 2: or there. To act like you know for sure who

1415
01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:09,240
Speaker 2: won't be a star. There have been many surprises, many surprises,

1416
01:12:09,640 --> 01:12:13,040
Speaker 2: and I'm not saying it's littered with second round gold,

1417
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:15,960
Speaker 2: but there have been some exceptions over the years, and

1418
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:17,959
Speaker 2: you're looking at a couple of them in the playoffs

1419
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,759
Speaker 2: right here, right now, And Jokic is the best example

1420
01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:23,800
Speaker 2: of that. He's a three time MVB and he's done

1421
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:25,400
Speaker 2: that in the last four years.

1422
01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:28,200
Speaker 1: I mean, like, I would love to go back.

1423
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:31,680
Speaker 2: And see some of the like scouting reports when he

1424
01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:34,600
Speaker 2: was initially drafted and how little was expected of the

1425
01:12:34,600 --> 01:12:34,920
Speaker 2: guy and.

1426
01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 1: Look what it's turned into.

1427
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 2: So you can't act like you know for sure that

1428
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 2: no one in the upcoming draft is going to be

1429
01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:41,800
Speaker 2: a star.

1430
01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:44,200
Speaker 1: Well here's the thing too, And I saw someone tweet

1431
01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:44,479
Speaker 1: this out.

1432
01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 3: I think it would have been one of the official

1433
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,280
Speaker 3: NBA accounts or you know, a media account that covers

1434
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:52,839
Speaker 3: the NBA officially. Three out of the top five players

1435
01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,439
Speaker 3: in the prospect rankings are all overseas players.

1436
01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:56,639
Speaker 1: France, Serbia, all.

1437
01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 3: These you know countries that you know, you get teams

1438
01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:01,559
Speaker 3: coming in, you get this kid from France, Alex Sar

1439
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:03,360
Speaker 3: is supposed to be the number one prospect, and then

1440
01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:08,839
Speaker 3: of course we get another Nicola Topch, not Jokic, copch Nice,

1441
01:13:09,080 --> 01:13:10,639
Speaker 3: who's gonna be a top five and there is another

1442
01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 3: kid from France to Zacharia. Again, I apologize, I'm butchering

1443
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 3: those those accents. I'm not Rudy Gobert all, but you

1444
01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:24,000
Speaker 3: get this international influence and the reason why that is

1445
01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:26,800
Speaker 3: intriguing to me. Back to the original point about this

1446
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:30,479
Speaker 3: NBA count that that tweeted this out recently, The last

1447
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:37,439
Speaker 3: six NBA MVPs have all been international players. Jokic three times,

1448
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:42,920
Speaker 3: Embiid once, Giannis twice. So the idea that we know

1449
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:47,800
Speaker 3: what Alex Saar and Nicola Topitch and Zachari are going

1450
01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:52,200
Speaker 3: to be right, They could be the next MVP of

1451
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:54,679
Speaker 3: the league. And I think the reason why that's intriguing

1452
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:59,560
Speaker 3: to me the NBA has definitely tilted more towards the

1453
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:02,960
Speaker 3: international vibe the last decade. Right, more games overseas, obviously,

1454
01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:07,960
Speaker 3: more international players, more international talent, winning the highest awards.

1455
01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:10,240
Speaker 1: The game has changed.

1456
01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:15,759
Speaker 3: Those players that are more international, they're better fundamental players

1457
01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:18,000
Speaker 3: than some of the guys that have maybe won the

1458
01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 3: MVPs in the United States era over the last couple

1459
01:14:21,880 --> 01:14:24,360
Speaker 3: of decades. Right, Steph Curry, Russell Westbrookjames Harden, Like, those

1460
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:28,880
Speaker 3: guys are volume shooters, whereas Giannis, Nicolae, Op Jokich, Joel

1461
01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:32,240
Speaker 3: Andbi Like, those guys are kind of stat stuffers, triple

1462
01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:35,320
Speaker 3: double kind of guys. You know, guys that can rebound,

1463
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:39,880
Speaker 3: that can defend and score, but also be distributors.

1464
01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:40,880
Speaker 1: And do the role player thing that, you know, the

1465
01:14:40,880 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 1: little things.

1466
01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 3: And I think the game has kind of tilted towards

1467
01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:49,479
Speaker 3: that where the successful teams like the Nuggets are kind

1468
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 3: of the ones that are buying into that team fundamental basketball.

1469
01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:56,760
Speaker 1: Which is much more common overseas well.

1470
01:14:56,800 --> 01:15:01,400
Speaker 2: Hey man, we get a game six today, we get

1471
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:05,120
Speaker 2: a couple of Game seven's tomorrow, Jared, how about this

1472
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 2: a lot of prop bet opportunities. Both of those got

1473
01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:11,080
Speaker 2: the PGA championship going on. Maybe a little prop bet

1474
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,080
Speaker 2: opportunities there. We'll compare notes around the corner. How about

1475
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:17,799
Speaker 2: this the two second best words in sports?

1476
01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:19,040
Speaker 1: Game seven?

1477
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:21,800
Speaker 2: Right, we get a pair of those tomorrow prop bet opportunities.

1478
01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:24,439
Speaker 2: Would you go along with that two second best words

1479
01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:24,920
Speaker 2: in sports?

1480
01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 3: Sure, I'll give you super Bowl because I agree it

1481
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 3: is that it is the pinnacle. Yeah, but I do

1482
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 3: love me a couple.

1483
01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:34,080
Speaker 1: At any event.

1484
01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:37,960
Speaker 2: We'll compare notes with prop bet opportunities left and right.

1485
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:41,519
Speaker 2: He's Jared Smith, FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian Nohang with

1486
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 2: us right here. It's Fox Sports Saturday on Fox Sports Radio.

1487
01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:49,759
Speaker 2: It is Fox Sports Saturday right here on Fox Sports Radio.

1488
01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:57,480
Speaker 1: Let's dive on into this prop it up player plays.

1489
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,920
Speaker 2: Ah, Yes, so many prop bet opportunity. Jared, We'll start

1490
01:16:00,920 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 2: with you with something you'd like.

1491
01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:04,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been talking about this guy a lot. I

1492
01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:06,639
Speaker 1: think we talked about him on last week's show, and I'll.

1493
01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:09,680
Speaker 3: Continue to bring your attention to Jalen Williams, who's I

1494
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:12,760
Speaker 3: would call him a point forward for the Oklahoma City

1495
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,799
Speaker 3: Thunder and his assist number back at four and a half.

1496
01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 3: It was five and a half at home in Game five.

1497
01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:20,599
Speaker 3: It didn't go over. Obviously the Thunder didn't play well

1498
01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:23,519
Speaker 3: in that game. Now back on the road game six tonight,

1499
01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:27,480
Speaker 3: Dad back down to four and a half, ten potential

1500
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:31,000
Speaker 3: assists in game five sixty one passes, only three actual assists.

1501
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,320
Speaker 3: So again we talked about this with Kyrie, right about

1502
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:37,000
Speaker 3: a sixty percent maybe call it sixty five percent conversion

1503
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:40,639
Speaker 3: rate is the average on those potential assists. Well, Jayla

1504
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:42,960
Speaker 3: Williams was a thirty percent in the last game, and

1505
01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 3: that's incredibly low. So he continues to lead the team

1506
01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:50,000
Speaker 3: and passes in this series. And Sga has been, you know,

1507
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:53,040
Speaker 3: the assist leader for the Thunder pretty much all season.

1508
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:56,680
Speaker 3: But this guy, Jalen Williams continues to be a distributor

1509
01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:58,840
Speaker 3: and he plays a position that's not you know, you

1510
01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:02,080
Speaker 3: don't think about a tower forward as an assist guy.

1511
01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:04,360
Speaker 3: But the ball pops off of his hands. He's on

1512
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:06,599
Speaker 3: the floor a ton. I love over four and a half,

1513
01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:08,479
Speaker 3: A says, I don't love that they're on the road, right.

1514
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:10,360
Speaker 1: Role players usually play better at.

1515
01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:12,960
Speaker 3: Home, and you need shots to go in for the

1516
01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:16,559
Speaker 3: assist number to hit. But I just think the number

1517
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 3: at four and a half has to be an over.

1518
01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:21,280
Speaker 3: So I love the fact that we're getting Jalen Williams

1519
01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:24,799
Speaker 3: four and a half potential or assists today ten potentials

1520
01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:25,400
Speaker 3: in the last game.

1521
01:17:25,439 --> 01:17:28,719
Speaker 1: I think he sneaks over this number, and I think over.

1522
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:31,519
Speaker 3: Four and a half, Jaylen Williams assists my favorite prop

1523
01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:34,400
Speaker 3: individual prop play for this thunder Mavericks game tonight.

1524
01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:37,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna stick with the same game here, Jared. I'm

1525
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:41,599
Speaker 2: looking at Kyrie Irving, and as fantastic of an offensive

1526
01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:44,400
Speaker 2: player as he is, he's been held in check in

1527
01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:45,040
Speaker 2: this series.

1528
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 1: They've done a great job.

1529
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:48,559
Speaker 2: Okay See is one of the better defending teams in

1530
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 2: the league.

1531
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:52,960
Speaker 1: They do a great job. They send some tall.

1532
01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:56,839
Speaker 2: Guys at you, you know, and really mess with your rhythm.

1533
01:17:57,640 --> 01:18:00,559
Speaker 2: And so I look at okay See and look at Kyrie.

1534
01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:05,559
Speaker 2: In this series, he scored twenty nine, twenty two, nine

1535
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:09,679
Speaker 2: and twelve. That's not what we're used to from Kyrie Irving.

1536
01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go under twenty and a half points for Kyrie.

1537
01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,720
Speaker 1: He's been under that in four of these five games.

1538
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:20,760
Speaker 2: And look, man, he's talented enough where this could absolutely

1539
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:23,519
Speaker 2: be terrible advice, But I think the odds that are

1540
01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:28,040
Speaker 2: in our favor to take the under because you've seen

1541
01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:33,240
Speaker 2: where at times Kyrie is passive. I remember the last

1542
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:36,160
Speaker 2: game where he tried an ally you pass I think

1543
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:38,320
Speaker 2: it was Grant Hill on the telecast he was like.

1544
01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:40,320
Speaker 1: Probably would have been better for him to shoot that one.

1545
01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 2: So he's been a little bit passive at times, and

1546
01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:45,639
Speaker 2: I think, Okay, see the other times, it's just done

1547
01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:49,720
Speaker 2: a great job sending multiple bodies at him, and there

1548
01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:52,960
Speaker 2: are better shots elsewhere, so he'll move the ball. I'm

1549
01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:55,720
Speaker 2: gonna take Kyrie Irving under twenty and a half in

1550
01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:57,040
Speaker 2: Game six here today.

1551
01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 1: I like it.

1552
01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:00,760
Speaker 3: I think unders are usually they to go with the

1553
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:05,559
Speaker 3: star players. The overs to me or their priced pretty

1554
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:07,639
Speaker 3: well at this time of year, right, Like Jalen Brunson

1555
01:19:07,680 --> 01:19:08,360
Speaker 3: stayed under.

1556
01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:09,240
Speaker 1: Last night even though he eat.

1557
01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 3: The volume was there for Jalen Brunson. The numbers tend

1558
01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:15,040
Speaker 3: to be pretty sharp this time of year. I think

1559
01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:17,599
Speaker 3: if you're gravitating towards the prop market in the NBA,

1560
01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:20,400
Speaker 3: I do think the NBA props in the postseason is

1561
01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:22,800
Speaker 3: the best way to play these games. I just think

1562
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:24,760
Speaker 3: you have to be cute with the stars like we

1563
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:27,720
Speaker 3: did that. You know that reverse correlation parlay. We went

1564
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:30,800
Speaker 3: over assist for Kyrie, but under three point makes I

1565
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:31,680
Speaker 3: think that's.

1566
01:19:31,479 --> 01:19:33,400
Speaker 1: Kind of the way to play those star players.

1567
01:19:33,439 --> 01:19:37,400
Speaker 3: And man, if the Mavericks do not get a good

1568
01:19:37,439 --> 01:19:40,240
Speaker 3: game for one or both of Kyrie and Luca Lamar

1569
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:44,720
Speaker 3: or tonight, I maybe it's not points, but but Kyrie's

1570
01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:46,719
Speaker 3: he needs to be involved then on the ball tonight,

1571
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:47,599
Speaker 3: but but he's been more.

1572
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:48,799
Speaker 1: Of a distributor in this series.

1573
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what might be the toughest prop bet

1574
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:55,759
Speaker 2: on the board would probably be Josh Hart of the Knicks.

1575
01:19:56,040 --> 01:19:59,280
Speaker 3: His rebounding prop is that eleven and a half. It's

1576
01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:01,679
Speaker 3: down though, like you're getting a back, like you're getting

1577
01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:03,320
Speaker 3: a bilo there. If you think he's gonna play the

1578
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:06,600
Speaker 3: full allotment, that's the thing is, yeah, you're getting a

1579
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:09,400
Speaker 3: bit of a break. It would normally be around thirteen

1580
01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:11,920
Speaker 3: and a half, at least twelve and a half right

1581
01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:13,759
Speaker 3: in this series against the Pacers.

1582
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:15,200
Speaker 1: So it's a bit of a break. But is it

1583
01:20:15,320 --> 01:20:18,280
Speaker 1: gonna be healthy? Do you ever play live props in game? Oh?

1584
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh yeah, I think that's how you play Josh

1585
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:21,759
Speaker 3: Hart tomorrow.

1586
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:25,000
Speaker 2: That's good advice right there for sure. Hey, coming up next.

1587
01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:29,120
Speaker 2: These comments have drawn quite the reaction, and Jared and

1588
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:33,639
Speaker 2: I will join the reacting. Oh, welcome in here. Good morning,

1589
01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:35,679
Speaker 2: hope your Saturday is off to a great start.

1590
01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:36,519
Speaker 1: Man.

1591
01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:38,639
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, Jared, we like to have fun.

1592
01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 2: We like to joke around on this show. You know,

1593
01:20:41,360 --> 01:20:43,439
Speaker 2: we're talking about batting here and there, But every now

1594
01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:47,280
Speaker 2: and then there's an adult conversation that enters in the

1595
01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:53,040
Speaker 2: chat here. How about this chiefs kicker, Harrison Butker. He

1596
01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:57,880
Speaker 2: has drawn quite the reaction. So he gave a graduation

1597
01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:03,720
Speaker 2: speech at Bennetticteen College. So it's a Catholic school, and

1598
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:07,960
Speaker 2: in this twenty minute or so graduation speech, it has

1599
01:21:08,080 --> 01:21:12,280
Speaker 2: drawn the attention of the NFL, which has distanced itself

1600
01:21:12,439 --> 01:21:16,800
Speaker 2: from his comments. There were this is the latest. There

1601
01:21:16,840 --> 01:21:23,200
Speaker 2: are the sisters of Benedictine College that have come out

1602
01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:28,320
Speaker 2: and said, yeah, not really a fan of the comments

1603
01:21:28,400 --> 01:21:29,280
Speaker 2: during this speech.

1604
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:29,880
Speaker 1: I didn't know that.

1605
01:21:30,320 --> 01:21:33,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, they came out and said, instead of promoting unity

1606
01:21:33,640 --> 01:21:36,479
Speaker 2: in our church or a nation and the world, his

1607
01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:41,080
Speaker 2: comments seem to have fostered division. That's a brief portion

1608
01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:43,519
Speaker 2: of what they put out there, but a taste of

1609
01:21:43,520 --> 01:21:47,960
Speaker 2: what Harrison Butker was talking about. He basically went thumbs

1610
01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:53,800
Speaker 2: down on Pride Month and said the LGBTQ plus celebration

1611
01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:59,040
Speaker 2: promotes quote unquote deadly sins, something that has drawn a

1612
01:21:59,080 --> 01:22:02,759
Speaker 2: lot of attention. And he said, a woman's most important

1613
01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:06,400
Speaker 2: title is homemaker. And so you can imagine a lot

1614
01:22:06,400 --> 01:22:09,280
Speaker 2: of people are jumping on that. Yeah, here's the thing, Jared,

1615
01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:13,400
Speaker 2: here's how I think. First things first, it's interesting to

1616
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:19,400
Speaker 2: me how a lot of people will say, hey, these athletes,

1617
01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:21,760
Speaker 2: they can think what they think, they can say what

1618
01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:24,639
Speaker 2: they want to say, they have the right to voice

1619
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:30,280
Speaker 2: their opinions. You typically hear that when those people agree

1620
01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 2: with what the athlete is saying or standing for. You

1621
01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:36,760
Speaker 2: don't hear it as much when you disagree completely with

1622
01:22:36,840 --> 01:22:40,760
Speaker 2: an athlete. But I think the same holds true, right, Like,

1623
01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:43,880
Speaker 2: I think it's interesting how you don't have you hear

1624
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:46,680
Speaker 2: this a lot the same energy when you're saying, hey,

1625
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,920
Speaker 2: these athletes have the right, Like I don't hear as

1626
01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:52,519
Speaker 2: many people saying that with Harrison Butker, But I think

1627
01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:57,080
Speaker 2: the same holds true where fundamentally you have the right

1628
01:22:57,600 --> 01:23:00,439
Speaker 2: to say what you think, and do you have the

1629
01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:03,719
Speaker 2: right to disagree with what a player says or thinks.

1630
01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:06,839
Speaker 2: But I think it's very different than saying he shouldn't

1631
01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:09,479
Speaker 2: be allowed to do that. I've never agreed with that

1632
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:10,160
Speaker 2: part of it.

1633
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:12,280
Speaker 1: I agree with you one hundred percent.

1634
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:17,320
Speaker 3: So personally I don't agree with with with Harrison's views

1635
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:21,200
Speaker 3: of the world, but I'm not one of those people

1636
01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:24,920
Speaker 3: that isn't open to listening. I think that, and frankly,

1637
01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:26,960
Speaker 3: gambling has helped me with that, and I hate to

1638
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,920
Speaker 3: always bring the conversation back to gambling, but the whole

1639
01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:34,680
Speaker 3: premise of betting is what do I don't I know

1640
01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,400
Speaker 3: about this game that I need to know? I have

1641
01:23:37,479 --> 01:23:40,439
Speaker 3: my opinions. Tell me something I don't know so I

1642
01:23:40,479 --> 01:23:45,439
Speaker 3: can learn and maybe evolve my opinion. Now, the opinion

1643
01:23:45,439 --> 01:23:48,320
Speaker 3: that Harrison has is it, I don't want to say antiquated,

1644
01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:51,680
Speaker 3: but it is a very traditional Catholic viewpoint, and there

1645
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:57,320
Speaker 3: are other religions that share similar views. But the division

1646
01:23:57,400 --> 01:24:01,400
Speaker 3: around it seems to be more, I guess, kind of

1647
01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:04,639
Speaker 3: fake outrage because at the end of the day, it's

1648
01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:07,800
Speaker 3: not like he's demanding the women in the audience.

1649
01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:09,760
Speaker 1: Do this right, voicing his opinion right.

1650
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:15,519
Speaker 3: And the thing that changes my thought process a little

1651
01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:17,760
Speaker 3: bit about this story is the reaction now from the

1652
01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:21,559
Speaker 3: actual entity that invited him to speak right, the fact

1653
01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:24,519
Speaker 3: that Dave started to distance themselves from Like, I'm not

1654
01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:27,599
Speaker 3: surprised at all the NFL distanced themselves from it because

1655
01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:30,600
Speaker 3: they're trying to appeal to a younger audience and a

1656
01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:34,040
Speaker 3: younger audience does not agree with the traditional viewpoints that

1657
01:24:34,200 --> 01:24:37,800
Speaker 3: Harrison has. But at the end of the day, it's

1658
01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:40,560
Speaker 3: he went up there and he gave his opinion. And

1659
01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:46,000
Speaker 3: I'll be honest, I am a fan of passion and emotion.

1660
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:50,439
Speaker 3: I think we suppress emotion too much in our society because,

1661
01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:53,200
Speaker 3: let's be honest, in sports, it ain't cool to have feelings, right,

1662
01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 3: But that's garbage.

1663
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:56,360
Speaker 1: Everyone has feelings.

1664
01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 3: The real people are the ones that can channel those

1665
01:24:58,360 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 3: emotions properly and use them as a positive instead of

1666
01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:05,840
Speaker 3: a negative. But the thing with Harrison, like it's just

1667
01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 3: his opinion, and I don't agree with that opinion. But

1668
01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:12,200
Speaker 3: who am I to say that someone else can't have

1669
01:25:12,240 --> 01:25:15,439
Speaker 3: an opinion of the world like like that to me

1670
01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:16,479
Speaker 3: makes no sense.

1671
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:18,280
Speaker 1: No, I hear you on that.

1672
01:25:18,320 --> 01:25:21,639
Speaker 2: And with the NFL, I get why they would say

1673
01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:25,960
Speaker 2: whoa Heisman post? You know, stiff armed to these comments.

1674
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:32,360
Speaker 2: They want to be the epitome of inclusive. Right. Inclusivity,

1675
01:25:32,479 --> 01:25:35,800
Speaker 2: if you will, right is they want to appeal to everybody.

1676
01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:39,040
Speaker 2: They want to make a buck off of everybody, regardless

1677
01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:45,360
Speaker 2: of your ethnic background, your your gender, your sexual orientation.

1678
01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:49,040
Speaker 2: What they want to appeal to everybody, So they will

1679
01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:53,160
Speaker 2: absolutely say no, not a fan of this if anyone

1680
01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:57,120
Speaker 2: is speaking ill of a group of people. I totally

1681
01:25:57,200 --> 01:26:00,360
Speaker 2: get the NFL in their position on this. It's ainly

1682
01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:04,360
Speaker 2: a business position that they're taking here. But I also

1683
01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:08,360
Speaker 2: think this with Harrison, Butker, look, man, you learn this

1684
01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:12,599
Speaker 2: over the years, right, is it's not just what you say,

1685
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:15,760
Speaker 2: it's how you say it and how you frame it.

1686
01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:16,439
Speaker 4: Yep.

1687
01:26:16,600 --> 01:26:19,680
Speaker 2: And I think in today's day and age, there's this

1688
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:24,920
Speaker 2: tendency to almost want to like swing a sledgehammer because

1689
01:26:24,960 --> 01:26:28,519
Speaker 2: you've got to cut through. There's so much noise. It's

1690
01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:32,320
Speaker 2: not easy to cut through and be relevant and be heard.

1691
01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:35,960
Speaker 2: And I think sometimes you just swing the sledgehammer too

1692
01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:39,600
Speaker 2: hard and it like recoils and comes back at you

1693
01:26:39,680 --> 01:26:42,400
Speaker 2: and it does more harm than good. Where, for instance,

1694
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:46,519
Speaker 2: how you're framing things. When he's talking about women and

1695
01:26:46,960 --> 01:26:50,000
Speaker 2: the most important title is homemaker, that sort of thing,

1696
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:53,679
Speaker 2: a portion he said the women who have been who

1697
01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:57,320
Speaker 2: have the most diabolical lies told to you, Like, that's

1698
01:26:57,360 --> 01:27:00,479
Speaker 2: just over the top, you know what I mean, It's

1699
01:27:00,520 --> 01:27:04,880
Speaker 2: too much Where if you frame it differently and say,

1700
01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 2: I don't know, along the lines of hey, just don't

1701
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:13,000
Speaker 2: forget that being married and having children that very well

1702
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:16,559
Speaker 2: could be the most rewarding experience in your life. I

1703
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:20,360
Speaker 2: think that's different than saying your most important title is.

1704
01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:23,920
Speaker 2: It's just not framed well. And I think in this

1705
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:28,840
Speaker 2: day and age, there's not nuance. It's completely black and white.

1706
01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:32,880
Speaker 2: You don't think, hey, if it's framed differently, how do

1707
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:35,680
Speaker 2: I receive this message? You just take it for what

1708
01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:38,640
Speaker 2: was said, and you're often running and I think that

1709
01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:41,879
Speaker 2: happens a lot. You've got to be very, very smart

1710
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:45,160
Speaker 2: and careful with how you frame things because your message

1711
01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:47,320
Speaker 2: could be lost in the shuffle if you don't frame it.

1712
01:27:47,280 --> 01:27:50,519
Speaker 1: The right way. Here's where Harrison went wrong. And I

1713
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:51,639
Speaker 1: watched the whole speech.

1714
01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:55,320
Speaker 3: He didn't inject some of his own personal story into it.

1715
01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:59,400
Speaker 3: It should have been entirely a first person situation. He

1716
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:03,320
Speaker 3: should have to these people directly from his point of view.

1717
01:28:03,880 --> 01:28:06,760
Speaker 3: And I say this in the betting area all the time.

1718
01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:09,519
Speaker 3: On social media, there's a lot of touts and Twitter

1719
01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:12,280
Speaker 3: people that are like, don't listen to this person, don't

1720
01:28:12,840 --> 01:28:14,960
Speaker 3: do this, do it my way.

1721
01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:17,240
Speaker 1: That's not the right approach.

1722
01:28:17,760 --> 01:28:21,719
Speaker 3: The right approach is to just explain yourself, give your opinion,

1723
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:25,400
Speaker 3: give your thoughts and let the market decide if you're

1724
01:28:25,479 --> 01:28:30,800
Speaker 3: right or wrong. Harrison, instead of preaching your being told,

1725
01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:35,040
Speaker 3: you you you you're being told, talk about your situation,

1726
01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:41,000
Speaker 3: my family, my wife, my kids, my life. If you

1727
01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:43,880
Speaker 3: frame it in that point of view, you can never

1728
01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,960
Speaker 3: be wrong. It's your opinion. But when you are forcing right,

1729
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,040
Speaker 3: when you get stopped on the street by the Jehovah's

1730
01:28:50,040 --> 01:28:51,720
Speaker 3: witness and they're trying to say, oh, I want you

1731
01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:56,240
Speaker 3: to do things this way, that's when people tend to

1732
01:28:56,240 --> 01:28:59,720
Speaker 3: push back. But he was very emotional talking about the

1733
01:28:59,760 --> 01:29:04,040
Speaker 3: best day of my families, like my wife, my kids.

1734
01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:07,960
Speaker 3: That's fine. But when you start to say you're being

1735
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:10,800
Speaker 3: told lies, you need to do this, you need to

1736
01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:14,240
Speaker 3: do that, and the finger is pointing at the audience,

1737
01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:18,719
Speaker 3: That's where Harrison went awry here. And Yeah, as you said,

1738
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:22,080
Speaker 3: it's not the message, it's the delivery. And that's where

1739
01:29:22,080 --> 01:29:25,200
Speaker 3: I think we needed to make an adjustment to this one.

1740
01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:29,479
Speaker 2: Hey, our technical producer Chris Purfett has something on this. Yeah,

1741
01:29:29,520 --> 01:29:30,280
Speaker 2: if you don't mind.

1742
01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:33,559
Speaker 10: Just as a practicing Catholic myself, and it was actually good.

1743
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:35,560
Speaker 10: I did not know that about the sisters of Benedictine

1744
01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:37,920
Speaker 10: had spoken up, and I'm proud of them for doing

1745
01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:40,840
Speaker 10: so on this. It's just it's it's funny because I've

1746
01:29:40,840 --> 01:29:44,559
Speaker 10: seen kind of in this aftermath people trying to defend

1747
01:29:44,560 --> 01:29:47,679
Speaker 10: Butker on the on the idea that these are Catholic ideas,

1748
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:50,920
Speaker 10: and I they are, but also at the same time

1749
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:51,760
Speaker 10: they're really not.

1750
01:29:52,280 --> 01:29:54,240
Speaker 1: It's this is tough.

1751
01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:58,360
Speaker 10: The Catholic Church has always been an evolving entity, and

1752
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:00,320
Speaker 10: I know a lot of American Catholics I want to

1753
01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:02,800
Speaker 10: hear this sometimes, but Francis is the Pope, and the

1754
01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:04,839
Speaker 10: Pope is the voice of God, and we are commanded

1755
01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:07,880
Speaker 10: to follow the voice of God through the Pope, and

1756
01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:12,160
Speaker 10: some of these ideas are changing, especially in regards to

1757
01:30:12,240 --> 01:30:17,880
Speaker 10: LGBT and and women in the church, and he takes

1758
01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:23,040
Speaker 10: a view that is a little bit older, and maybe

1759
01:30:23,080 --> 01:30:26,920
Speaker 10: that's I don't think that's in keeping with church teachings.

1760
01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:29,880
Speaker 10: At the same time too, but I kind of push

1761
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,479
Speaker 10: back on people who would say that these are Catholic ideas.

1762
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:34,720
Speaker 2: It's like, no, they're not.

1763
01:30:34,880 --> 01:30:38,240
Speaker 10: They they've been changing, they've been evolving, and that's that's

1764
01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:40,719
Speaker 10: what kind of like really frustrates me as a practicing

1765
01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:43,320
Speaker 10: Catholic in all of this also the same time too.

1766
01:30:43,400 --> 01:30:46,360
Speaker 10: You know, Butker is just a kicker, And to quote

1767
01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:47,879
Speaker 10: a famous quarterback, we're.

1768
01:30:47,720 --> 01:30:49,280
Speaker 4: Talking about our picker.

1769
01:30:51,280 --> 01:30:54,759
Speaker 2: Here's why Jat has been replaced by Harrison Butker.

1770
01:30:54,960 --> 01:30:58,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of true. Here's why I love that

1771
01:30:59,000 --> 01:31:02,760
Speaker 3: I'm Jewish. I've been told my whole life, you can

1772
01:31:02,800 --> 01:31:05,439
Speaker 3: only eat certain things. This is kosher, this is not kosher,

1773
01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:08,879
Speaker 3: this is clean, this is unclean. One of the things,

1774
01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:12,240
Speaker 3: and all of these rules were set thousands of years ago.

1775
01:31:12,720 --> 01:31:14,640
Speaker 3: One of the things that we are not allowed to

1776
01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:18,920
Speaker 3: eat in the Jewish faith if you're kosherre is lobster

1777
01:31:19,160 --> 01:31:20,639
Speaker 3: shellfish because it's dirty.

1778
01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:21,599
Speaker 1: It's a bottom feeder.

1779
01:31:21,880 --> 01:31:22,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys have been to a

1780
01:31:22,880 --> 01:31:26,120
Speaker 3: restaurant lately, lobster is the most expensive thing on the menu.

1781
01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:28,799
Speaker 3: Like sometimes it's so expensive they don't even.

1782
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:29,719
Speaker 1: Put the price on the menu.

1783
01:31:29,960 --> 01:31:34,320
Speaker 3: So these ideals that thousands of years ago, before we

1784
01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:37,920
Speaker 3: knew anything about fitness, nutrition, all of these things that

1785
01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:43,639
Speaker 3: we still blindly followed today. Antiquated, frankly is the word

1786
01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:44,200
Speaker 3: I would use.

1787
01:31:45,600 --> 01:31:47,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a tricky thing.

1788
01:31:47,680 --> 01:31:54,160
Speaker 2: Like Chris said, Jared is like I think that there's

1789
01:31:54,160 --> 01:31:56,439
Speaker 2: so much going on here, I think that I'll give

1790
01:31:56,439 --> 01:32:00,400
Speaker 2: you someone my background. I grew up Catholic, and I'm

1791
01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:05,200
Speaker 2: more just Christian now, where I've some of the teachings

1792
01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:10,080
Speaker 2: of the Catholic Church I don't completely align with. And

1793
01:32:10,160 --> 01:32:15,240
Speaker 2: so like I'll watch church every week. I'm still you know, follow,

1794
01:32:15,280 --> 01:32:17,680
Speaker 2: I'm still a believer. There are still many things that

1795
01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:20,439
Speaker 2: are still in me that will never change as far

1796
01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:23,080
Speaker 2: as my faith or anything like that.

1797
01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:25,360
Speaker 1: And I think a lot of.

1798
01:32:25,240 --> 01:32:30,600
Speaker 2: This, Look, I have the philosophy of it's not for

1799
01:32:30,720 --> 01:32:33,240
Speaker 2: me to decide, you know what I mean, Like, yeah,

1800
01:32:33,560 --> 01:32:37,040
Speaker 2: I'm not God. God will sort stuff out of who

1801
01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:40,800
Speaker 2: did what right and who did what wrong, and it's

1802
01:32:40,840 --> 01:32:43,040
Speaker 2: not up to me. So I think my role is

1803
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:46,760
Speaker 2: to be a good person and try to make the

1804
01:32:46,760 --> 01:32:48,519
Speaker 2: world better if.

1805
01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:49,680
Speaker 1: Possible, you know.

1806
01:32:50,160 --> 01:32:53,240
Speaker 2: And I think a lot of times in an effort

1807
01:32:53,400 --> 01:32:55,840
Speaker 2: to try to make the world better, which is I

1808
01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:58,559
Speaker 2: think what Harrison Butker his main goal was to do,

1809
01:32:59,080 --> 01:32:59,479
Speaker 2: I don't.

1810
01:32:59,320 --> 01:33:00,240
Speaker 1: Think he did.

1811
01:33:00,680 --> 01:33:04,640
Speaker 2: That's the bottom line is I don't think he succeeded

1812
01:33:04,680 --> 01:33:08,360
Speaker 2: with that, And so that's where it becomes really really tricky.

1813
01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:12,320
Speaker 2: I think that his intentions were good, his execution and

1814
01:33:12,360 --> 01:33:13,439
Speaker 2: delivery were bad.

1815
01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:13,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1816
01:33:13,800 --> 01:33:16,360
Speaker 2: Now that depends on your views and your beliefs in

1817
01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:18,679
Speaker 2: a whole list of things, and that's where it gets really,

1818
01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:25,759
Speaker 2: really confusing. But I think fundamentally, when you start saying

1819
01:33:26,560 --> 01:33:30,000
Speaker 2: this is wrong, these people are wrong, this approach is wrong,

1820
01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:32,840
Speaker 2: and it's like, I know you're trying to help, and

1821
01:33:32,920 --> 01:33:35,200
Speaker 2: I know you believe certain things and you think this

1822
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:37,960
Speaker 2: is the right way and if other people did it,

1823
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:40,559
Speaker 2: it would be better. But when you go about it

1824
01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:43,439
Speaker 2: that way, there's a reason why the sisters of that

1825
01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:48,280
Speaker 2: college said yeah, no, thumbs down on that whole thing.

1826
01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:49,080
Speaker 1: I agree.

1827
01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:52,880
Speaker 3: And again it goes back to just put yourself out there,

1828
01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:57,200
Speaker 3: talk about it from your perspective, talk about your family upbringing.

1829
01:33:57,280 --> 01:33:59,080
Speaker 1: And by the way, I think Harrison's mom is.

1830
01:33:59,040 --> 01:34:02,960
Speaker 3: Like a physicists, like medical physicists for some oncology department,

1831
01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:08,519
Speaker 3: so it's not like she's this homemaker and I it's

1832
01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:11,679
Speaker 3: become this and we have this all the time in sports,

1833
01:34:11,720 --> 01:34:13,960
Speaker 3: and I love it because we get to talk about

1834
01:34:13,960 --> 01:34:15,360
Speaker 3: it on the show and we get to express our

1835
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,680
Speaker 3: feelings and our perspectives and I can bring you my

1836
01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:20,080
Speaker 3: perspective and Brian as his, and Chris of course with

1837
01:34:20,200 --> 01:34:22,800
Speaker 3: his very devout Catholic upbringing. It it's always unique to

1838
01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:25,720
Speaker 3: hear different perspectives, but when you are talking about it

1839
01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:29,000
Speaker 3: from the you should do it my way point of view,

1840
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:32,960
Speaker 3: you are never going to win. Everyone is very We

1841
01:34:33,040 --> 01:34:36,000
Speaker 3: live in a very cynical society. If someone is telling

1842
01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:38,960
Speaker 3: me what to do, I'm probably going to do the opposite.

1843
01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:42,240
Speaker 1: It's just the natural order of things.

1844
01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:46,320
Speaker 3: So I always appreciate when someone gives me their unique perspective,

1845
01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:50,600
Speaker 3: but they don't force their beliefs onto me. And I

1846
01:34:50,640 --> 01:34:54,200
Speaker 3: think there was We were too leaning into that side

1847
01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:57,240
Speaker 3: of the spectrum with this particular story. Harrison could have

1848
01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:59,680
Speaker 3: avoided all of this if he just gave a very

1849
01:34:59,680 --> 01:35:05,040
Speaker 3: emotion monologue about his life and his upbringing and then

1850
01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:07,920
Speaker 3: left in on the positive. There was too much negative.

1851
01:35:07,920 --> 01:35:10,160
Speaker 3: There's already so much negative in our society. There was

1852
01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:13,360
Speaker 3: a lot of negative in that speech. And I don't

1853
01:35:13,400 --> 01:35:14,519
Speaker 3: know if he could do it all over again, if

1854
01:35:14,520 --> 01:35:16,439
Speaker 3: he would change it. I don't know what's going on

1855
01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:19,840
Speaker 3: in his head, but it's obviously caused a bit of

1856
01:35:19,880 --> 01:35:20,200
Speaker 3: a stir.

1857
01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:22,880
Speaker 2: Oh man, a huge stir. And that's the thing. Man

1858
01:35:23,120 --> 01:35:27,519
Speaker 2: is put religion to the side. Okay, as best as

1859
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:31,400
Speaker 2: you can when he said, you know, these deadly sins

1860
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 2: when he's talking about Pride Month right now, really think

1861
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:39,200
Speaker 2: about this. Would you be open minded to any sort

1862
01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:43,360
Speaker 2: of conversation or any potential change or anything like that

1863
01:35:43,560 --> 01:35:45,920
Speaker 2: if someone came at you like that, you know what

1864
01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:49,840
Speaker 2: I mean, You're gonna be more than defensive about that.

1865
01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:52,760
Speaker 2: You're gonna be on the offensive. If someone came at

1866
01:35:52,800 --> 01:35:56,200
Speaker 2: you like that based on how you're living your life,

1867
01:35:56,320 --> 01:35:58,439
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like that's not going to

1868
01:35:58,479 --> 01:36:02,679
Speaker 2: inspire anything. And I get on the other side, Look,

1869
01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:05,479
Speaker 2: it's just not acceptable to voice any of these views

1870
01:36:05,479 --> 01:36:07,479
Speaker 2: in this day and age. Whether you think that's right

1871
01:36:07,560 --> 01:36:09,240
Speaker 2: or wrong, that's just where it is. And so I

1872
01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:13,479
Speaker 2: can understand the people who have similar beliefs. They're like, yeah,

1873
01:36:13,600 --> 01:36:16,960
Speaker 2: Budker right on, his jersey sales are soaring because he

1874
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:17,640
Speaker 2: has had.

1875
01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:20,360
Speaker 3: Shaine right, same people who wanted to boycott the NFL

1876
01:36:20,439 --> 01:36:22,439
Speaker 3: last year, right, right.

1877
01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:27,680
Speaker 2: But he's saying something that many people that think is

1878
01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:31,880
Speaker 2: has been silenced is completely inappropriate, that sort of thing

1879
01:36:31,920 --> 01:36:34,840
Speaker 2: right now, So they're like, finally this guy, and now

1880
01:36:34,880 --> 01:36:38,040
Speaker 2: it becomes ugly where those people aligned with Budker just

1881
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:40,600
Speaker 2: because he said something that's totally unpopular.

1882
01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:43,599
Speaker 1: But what he said, you.

1883
01:36:43,560 --> 01:36:48,640
Speaker 2: Would take offense too if his criticisms were aimed in

1884
01:36:48,760 --> 01:36:52,800
Speaker 2: your direction saying what he said. It's this whole thing, man,

1885
01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:56,000
Speaker 2: And I just don't think it accomplished.

1886
01:36:55,360 --> 01:36:57,240
Speaker 1: What he was hoping for. We live in a very

1887
01:36:57,240 --> 01:36:58,360
Speaker 1: divisive society.

1888
01:36:59,320 --> 01:37:04,280
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, it is something like this was never going to

1889
01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:09,200
Speaker 3: go unnoticed, and I think he knew that going in.

1890
01:37:10,160 --> 01:37:10,519
Speaker 1: I don't.

1891
01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:13,440
Speaker 3: And that's the part about this story that I don't understand,

1892
01:37:13,439 --> 01:37:15,280
Speaker 3: and I think we hear. There was a promo that

1893
01:37:15,320 --> 01:37:18,280
Speaker 3: played during one of our commercial breaks. Steve Covino was

1894
01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:19,920
Speaker 3: talking about it, like do you think one of his

1895
01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:23,559
Speaker 3: people in his circle, even if they believe, even if

1896
01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:27,759
Speaker 3: they agreed with his briefs, went through him and was like, hey, listen, Harrison,

1897
01:37:28,680 --> 01:37:33,479
Speaker 3: I get it. I agree. What's the goal of this, Like,

1898
01:37:33,640 --> 01:37:37,120
Speaker 3: what's your endgame here? Are you trying to cause a stir?

1899
01:37:37,439 --> 01:37:41,120
Speaker 3: Are you trying to go viral? Because if that's your goal,

1900
01:37:41,240 --> 01:37:43,800
Speaker 3: then you're gonna accomplish it. If you are trying to

1901
01:37:43,880 --> 01:37:47,200
Speaker 3: deliver a positive message to the youth of America, that

1902
01:37:47,360 --> 01:37:50,920
Speaker 3: is not this message. And I think that's the part

1903
01:37:50,960 --> 01:37:54,040
Speaker 3: about this that bothers me a little bit. I want

1904
01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:58,080
Speaker 3: everyone to feel like they can express their opinions, but

1905
01:37:58,320 --> 01:38:01,760
Speaker 3: not if the intent had malice behind it. And we

1906
01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:04,599
Speaker 3: will never know the intent because we're not inside Harrison's

1907
01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:07,640
Speaker 3: head or in his circle. But there had to be

1908
01:38:07,720 --> 01:38:12,880
Speaker 3: somebody that said, hey, buddy, listen, you might wanna tone

1909
01:38:12,920 --> 01:38:15,679
Speaker 3: down the rhetoric a little bit here because this ain't

1910
01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:19,360
Speaker 3: gonna end well in terms of the court of public opinion.

1911
01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:23,760
Speaker 2: Interesting stuff. He's Jared Smith FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian no.

1912
01:38:25,040 --> 01:38:27,160
Speaker 2: On a lighter note, man, how about those horrible New

1913
01:38:27,240 --> 01:38:28,520
Speaker 2: York Giants uniforms.

1914
01:38:28,600 --> 01:38:31,720
Speaker 1: Huh oh my? How can you make Daniel Jones look

1915
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:33,080
Speaker 1: any worse? They figured it out.

1916
01:38:35,320 --> 01:38:38,519
Speaker 2: It's like you take the Michigan helmets, you know, like

1917
01:38:39,040 --> 01:38:41,160
Speaker 2: the mazing blue and the design.

1918
01:38:41,600 --> 01:38:45,040
Speaker 1: That's what the Giants. It's blue, but it's with red.

1919
01:38:45,479 --> 01:38:48,200
Speaker 3: The Montreal Canadians, like you, grew up all over their

1920
01:38:48,280 --> 01:38:51,160
Speaker 3: original six unit jersey and he gave it to the Giants.

1921
01:38:50,920 --> 01:38:53,320
Speaker 2: Ultimates for the cfl Alott's compas right.

1922
01:38:53,360 --> 01:38:53,760
Speaker 4: That's right.

1923
01:38:53,800 --> 01:38:58,880
Speaker 2: It's like the have Khakis, you know, it's like Khaki.

1924
01:38:59,560 --> 01:39:02,639
Speaker 3: It's the heart Carball Khakis Media Yalloettes of the Canade.

1925
01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:03,120
Speaker 1: Pretty much.

1926
01:39:03,360 --> 01:39:06,160
Speaker 2: It's pretty much for the terrible. All right, come it

1927
01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:09,960
Speaker 2: up next. It's a growing trend in sports. Should more

1928
01:39:10,120 --> 01:39:13,439
Speaker 2: leagues do the same thing. It's Fox Sports Saturday, right

1929
01:39:13,520 --> 01:39:16,559
Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Radio. It is Fox Sports Saturday,

1930
01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:19,880
Speaker 2: right here on Fox Sports Radio. You know, Jared, we've

1931
01:39:19,920 --> 01:39:23,080
Speaker 2: got a growing trend in the sports world.

1932
01:39:23,200 --> 01:39:23,360
Speaker 3: Here.

1933
01:39:24,360 --> 01:39:27,240
Speaker 1: It would be the in season tournament. Huh.

1934
01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:30,479
Speaker 2: So we add that in the NBA. We'll now have

1935
01:39:30,640 --> 01:39:33,760
Speaker 2: it NASCAR, that's right. It'd be a five race in

1936
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:37,800
Speaker 2: season tournament. Next year you have thirty two drivers will

1937
01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:42,599
Speaker 2: compete for a million bucks. Now here's the question, should

1938
01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:45,880
Speaker 2: more leagues do this? Should Baseball do it? Would you

1939
01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:50,360
Speaker 2: like to see Major League Baseball have an in season tournament?

1940
01:39:50,720 --> 01:39:50,880
Speaker 8: Now?

1941
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:53,760
Speaker 2: To put it out there, I didn't think the n

1942
01:39:53,880 --> 01:39:56,760
Speaker 2: season tournament for the NBA was great, but you were

1943
01:39:56,760 --> 01:39:57,120
Speaker 2: against it.

1944
01:39:57,120 --> 01:40:00,640
Speaker 1: I remember, I was more the exception. People love it.

1945
01:40:01,040 --> 01:40:03,320
Speaker 1: It gave him a boost, and I was okay with them.

1946
01:40:03,479 --> 01:40:06,439
Speaker 2: And in eighty two game season, if there's something you're

1947
01:40:06,479 --> 01:40:09,920
Speaker 2: doing that gets some eyeballs over there, that makes sense

1948
01:40:10,200 --> 01:40:13,879
Speaker 2: for baseball, Jared, it's one hundred and sixty two game seasons,

1949
01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:18,000
Speaker 2: long season. There's got to be a way for them

1950
01:40:18,080 --> 01:40:20,200
Speaker 2: to do it. If they decided this would be good

1951
01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:22,120
Speaker 2: for them. I think it'd be a good idea for baseball.

1952
01:40:22,120 --> 01:40:23,840
Speaker 2: I don't think he could really do it in the NFL,

1953
01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:26,200
Speaker 2: which is not enough games. I think he'd be kind

1954
01:40:26,200 --> 01:40:30,720
Speaker 2: of goofy, agreed, right, But major League Baseball. I think

1955
01:40:30,760 --> 01:40:32,519
Speaker 2: there could be something there for them to do it.

1956
01:40:33,080 --> 01:40:36,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think frankly, the way I view the D

1957
01:40:36,160 --> 01:40:38,719
Speaker 3: season tournament for baseball is kind of the home Run Derby.

1958
01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:43,559
Speaker 3: If that sounds weird at all, like, that's probably super weird,

1959
01:40:43,640 --> 01:40:46,120
Speaker 3: But I look like that's if you want to ask me, like,

1960
01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:48,120
Speaker 3: is there something that happens in the middle of the

1961
01:40:48,160 --> 01:40:50,840
Speaker 3: baseball season that I think is more exciting than the

1962
01:40:50,920 --> 01:40:54,320
Speaker 3: actual baseball season itself, I would say home run Derby.

1963
01:40:55,560 --> 01:40:58,439
Speaker 3: And maybe that's more from a selfish betting perspective. I've

1964
01:40:58,439 --> 01:41:00,439
Speaker 3: had success betting on the Home Run Derby for the years.

1965
01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:01,519
Speaker 3: I think it's one of the I don't want to

1966
01:41:01,520 --> 01:41:04,639
Speaker 3: say easier events to bet on, but it's definitely easier

1967
01:41:04,640 --> 01:41:07,519
Speaker 3: than betting on the baseball regular season. That's for dark shore.

1968
01:41:08,400 --> 01:41:11,000
Speaker 3: I here's why I don't think it would work in baseball,

1969
01:41:11,960 --> 01:41:14,920
Speaker 3: the teams would not throw their best arms. I don't think, like,

1970
01:41:15,000 --> 01:41:17,680
Speaker 3: I honestly think the teams would punt on it. I

1971
01:41:17,760 --> 01:41:19,640
Speaker 3: think the teams would say, hey, let's call up some

1972
01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:21,639
Speaker 3: of the minor league guys and let's get them a shot,

1973
01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:27,000
Speaker 3: like unless the games actually counted in the actual standings

1974
01:41:27,439 --> 01:41:31,840
Speaker 3: for the you know, the playoffs like the nd season tournament.

1975
01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:34,280
Speaker 3: I don't think did Like did that game didn't count

1976
01:41:34,400 --> 01:41:35,240
Speaker 3: like in the standings?

1977
01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:35,439
Speaker 2: Right?

1978
01:41:36,520 --> 01:41:39,760
Speaker 3: The which like the championship, like the final game. Oh yeah,

1979
01:41:39,800 --> 01:41:42,559
Speaker 3: that was the only one that didn't. Yeah, so right,

1980
01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:44,760
Speaker 3: like and in baseball you have to have like a series.

1981
01:41:44,800 --> 01:41:47,760
Speaker 3: They're probably like a two out of three, right. My

1982
01:41:47,920 --> 01:41:50,559
Speaker 3: guess is those games wouldn't count the regular season standings.

1983
01:41:50,600 --> 01:41:53,960
Speaker 3: Like what incentive would a team had, Hey, Garrett Cole,

1984
01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:57,599
Speaker 3: go give me your best bullets in an exhibition game

1985
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:00,639
Speaker 3: in July? Like That's the part I think about baseball,

1986
01:42:00,640 --> 01:42:03,679
Speaker 3: because the season is so long already and it's such

1987
01:42:03,720 --> 01:42:07,240
Speaker 3: an attrition sport that I don't know if it would

1988
01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:08,519
Speaker 3: have the same buzz to it.

1989
01:42:08,920 --> 01:42:11,120
Speaker 1: But also we do have that Field of.

1990
01:42:11,200 --> 01:42:14,040
Speaker 3: Dreams game, which I think is kind of in the

1991
01:42:14,560 --> 01:42:17,320
Speaker 3: in the same zip code as the n season tournament.

1992
01:42:18,120 --> 01:42:18,519
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1993
01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:21,920
Speaker 3: The more that the season played on in the NBA,

1994
01:42:22,120 --> 01:42:24,160
Speaker 3: the n season tournament became less and less of a thing,

1995
01:42:24,960 --> 01:42:27,160
Speaker 3: and right, the Lakers won it, and where are the

1996
01:42:27,240 --> 01:42:31,960
Speaker 3: Lakers now? Sure, I'm just kind of like, eh, maybe

1997
01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:35,840
Speaker 3: for ratings, yes, but in terms of like actual brass

1998
01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:38,120
Speaker 3: tax I'm not like fully on board with it.

1999
01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:41,400
Speaker 2: I think it breaks up the monotony. Yeah, sure, and

2000
01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:47,840
Speaker 2: especially for the NBA. You're doing that in football season, right, Yeah,

2001
01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:51,519
Speaker 2: thats tournament was Yeah, so that makes sense. There are

2002
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:54,200
Speaker 2: a lot of people that they're just conditioned to I'm

2003
01:42:54,240 --> 01:42:57,559
Speaker 2: not paying attention to basketball until football season is fully over.

2004
01:42:57,960 --> 01:42:59,840
Speaker 1: I'm raising my hand right now a lot of people.

2005
01:43:00,439 --> 01:43:03,880
Speaker 2: So if you can do something to get any sort

2006
01:43:03,920 --> 01:43:08,599
Speaker 2: of additional attention, sure, I think it's smart. And for baseball,

2007
01:43:09,120 --> 01:43:11,559
Speaker 2: I hear you on the series thing, But how about

2008
01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:14,920
Speaker 2: an ND season tournament where it's literally just a single

2009
01:43:15,000 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 2: elimination type thing. We can't we don't have time to

2010
01:43:17,520 --> 01:43:19,040
Speaker 2: do a series. We don't have time for a three

2011
01:43:19,160 --> 01:43:22,120
Speaker 2: game series that's not going to count statistically or in

2012
01:43:22,240 --> 01:43:22,880
Speaker 2: the standings.

2013
01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:23,639
Speaker 1: That's just weird.

2014
01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:25,559
Speaker 3: How do you like Where do you put it though,

2015
01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:28,880
Speaker 3: Like with the NBA, you get natural breaks, you know,

2016
01:43:28,960 --> 01:43:32,400
Speaker 3: you get a few days off of the team like baseball's.

2017
01:43:31,920 --> 01:43:36,280
Speaker 1: Every fricking day, I know. And there's travel involved. And yeah,

2018
01:43:36,840 --> 01:43:37,240
Speaker 1: I think.

2019
01:43:40,560 --> 01:43:44,400
Speaker 2: You'd have to really stretch out the season. And when

2020
01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:49,760
Speaker 2: you're already going from late March until we play in

2021
01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:53,200
Speaker 2: like uh, you know, playoff games in the Bronx in

2022
01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:54,720
Speaker 2: near December.

2023
01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:56,439
Speaker 1: That's not gonna work. They don't want to do that.

2024
01:43:57,160 --> 01:44:01,479
Speaker 1: You'd probably have to look at possibly trim the season.

2025
01:44:02,120 --> 01:44:04,559
Speaker 3: They definitely Then it gets although I do think one

2026
01:44:04,720 --> 01:44:07,240
Speaker 3: fifty four is where I would put it, but they

2027
01:44:07,280 --> 01:44:07,920
Speaker 3: don't want to do that.

2028
01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:14,880
Speaker 2: How about this, how about a central central location there's

2029
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,880
Speaker 2: no travel involved. We put it in Vegas, the n

2030
01:44:17,960 --> 01:44:20,960
Speaker 2: season tournament in Vegas. Now, I'm man, every single team

2031
01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:24,840
Speaker 2: is there, right, we just single elimination. Let's get down

2032
01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:26,960
Speaker 2: to it. I mean, there's a way to do it.

2033
01:44:27,040 --> 01:44:29,519
Speaker 2: If you really wanted to degenerate some buzz, break up

2034
01:44:29,560 --> 01:44:31,880
Speaker 2: the monotony, I think there could be something there to

2035
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:32,519
Speaker 2: hammer out.

2036
01:44:32,880 --> 01:44:35,400
Speaker 3: It would be fun. Let's leave it at this. I

2037
01:44:35,520 --> 01:44:40,240
Speaker 3: am all for evolution in sports. We are very much

2038
01:44:40,400 --> 01:44:43,680
Speaker 3: set with a lot of these and baseball is the

2039
01:44:43,840 --> 01:44:46,680
Speaker 3: most traditional of all the sports, and we are so

2040
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:53,000
Speaker 3: regimented with baseball. Yeah, I am in favor of tweaks

2041
01:44:53,479 --> 01:44:57,240
Speaker 3: to make the game more enticing. I just don't know

2042
01:44:57,360 --> 01:44:59,840
Speaker 3: if adding games is this this is the right way.

2043
01:45:00,560 --> 01:45:03,040
Speaker 3: We're trying to make the season shorter and more compact

2044
01:45:03,120 --> 01:45:05,879
Speaker 3: so we could see these players in a more heightened

2045
01:45:05,960 --> 01:45:11,240
Speaker 3: sense of urgency. I just don't know if. And the

2046
01:45:11,360 --> 01:45:15,599
Speaker 3: players union in baseball I think is I would say

2047
01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:19,280
Speaker 3: it's probably the strongest of all of the sports. Maybe

2048
01:45:19,320 --> 01:45:22,000
Speaker 3: Basketball because the stars have so much power. NFL is

2049
01:45:22,040 --> 01:45:24,560
Speaker 3: definitely the weakest. NHL I don't know enough about it

2050
01:45:24,640 --> 01:45:28,960
Speaker 3: to really classify it, but Baseball union's pretty strong. Like

2051
01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:30,920
Speaker 3: that's one of the star I would say that's the

2052
01:45:30,960 --> 01:45:34,679
Speaker 3: strongest of them. And if the players are not on board,

2053
01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:38,280
Speaker 3: like I just don't know how that occurs, Well.

2054
01:45:38,200 --> 01:45:41,400
Speaker 1: Think about this, It would take really less than a week.

2055
01:45:42,400 --> 01:45:45,360
Speaker 2: And if you put it like central location, the whole,

2056
01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:48,280
Speaker 2: if you're just joining us right now, NASCAR is going

2057
01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:50,840
Speaker 2: to do an in season tournament. So it got Jared

2058
01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:53,560
Speaker 2: and I thinking about, Hey, could baseball do an n

2059
01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:55,880
Speaker 2: season tournament that sort of thing. So let's just say

2060
01:45:55,920 --> 01:45:58,760
Speaker 2: you put it in Vegas, be a week. I think

2061
01:45:58,800 --> 01:46:01,200
Speaker 2: there are thirty teams. Let's say you get to buy

2062
01:46:01,640 --> 01:46:03,400
Speaker 2: one team in the American League, one team in the

2063
01:46:03,520 --> 01:46:06,519
Speaker 2: National League. All right, so you get all those games. Boom,

2064
01:46:06,720 --> 01:46:08,960
Speaker 2: You're right, you're down to sixteen teams, right then?

2065
01:46:09,479 --> 01:46:09,599
Speaker 8: Right?

2066
01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:13,040
Speaker 2: Uh so, and you just play it out sixteen, down

2067
01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:15,400
Speaker 2: to eight, down to four two one week.

2068
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:18,840
Speaker 1: It's five days, five days. You play every day five days. Boom.

2069
01:46:18,920 --> 01:46:19,479
Speaker 1: Think about that.

2070
01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:23,640
Speaker 2: If you had every single Major League Baseball player in

2071
01:46:23,800 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 2: the same city and it's like a super week, it

2072
01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:30,880
Speaker 2: could be fun and it like we talk about this

2073
01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:33,559
Speaker 2: like there's man, when you get into the dog days

2074
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:37,599
Speaker 2: of June, July, August. Let's say you had this thing

2075
01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:41,320
Speaker 2: right after the NBA Finals in June. I think that'd

2076
01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:43,439
Speaker 2: be a shot in the arm for Major League Baseball.

2077
01:46:44,160 --> 01:46:46,280
Speaker 2: I agree with that, it would be a shot in

2078
01:46:46,320 --> 01:46:50,080
Speaker 2: the arm. I'm just I'm a logistics guy. Uh huh.

2079
01:46:50,560 --> 01:46:52,879
Speaker 1: Like the logistics to me, there's a lot.

2080
01:46:52,800 --> 01:46:55,920
Speaker 3: Of man, this team's got to come from New York

2081
01:46:56,000 --> 01:46:58,720
Speaker 3: and Boston and Philly, and then they probably got to

2082
01:46:58,760 --> 01:47:01,360
Speaker 3: go back to New York or ball Bustin and Philly afterwards.

2083
01:47:01,520 --> 01:47:04,439
Speaker 1: You're doing that anyway. You know you're doing that anyway

2084
01:47:04,520 --> 01:47:05,759
Speaker 1: with the course of your season.

2085
01:47:06,360 --> 01:47:09,320
Speaker 3: Would I would like to see a proposal, and I'd

2086
01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:11,400
Speaker 3: like to see what the pushback is from the union.

2087
01:47:11,520 --> 01:47:13,479
Speaker 1: If the union's on board, it would happen.

2088
01:47:14,360 --> 01:47:17,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's true. The union's not on board. It's

2089
01:47:17,800 --> 01:47:20,599
Speaker 2: like there's no chance quite a fight. Yeah, I've got

2090
01:47:20,640 --> 01:47:24,120
Speaker 2: a theory to throw your way, Jared, right around the corner. First, though,

2091
01:47:24,479 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 2: this is not a theory. This is a certainty that

2092
01:47:27,160 --> 01:47:30,679
Speaker 2: Isaac Lowan Kron is the truth. You thought Paul Pierce

2093
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:31,760
Speaker 2: was the truth. That's wrong.

2094
01:47:31,840 --> 01:47:34,960
Speaker 1: He's borrowing the nickname from Isaac Lowhan Kron. He's got

2095
01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:35,760
Speaker 1: the latest right here.

2096
01:47:35,920 --> 01:47:39,160
Speaker 9: Certainly having a better weekend than Paul Pierce, by the way,

2097
01:47:40,080 --> 01:47:42,679
Speaker 9: if you know what I mean, folks, thank you again

2098

2118
01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:50,920
Speaker 9: new bit of information for you, w DRB Television out

2119
01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:54,320
Speaker 9: of Louisville reported a short time ago that Louisville Mayor

2120
01:48:54,560 --> 01:48:58,639
Speaker 9: Craig Greenberg said this morning that the detective who arrested

2121
01:48:58,680 --> 01:49:02,639
Speaker 9: Scotty Scheffler yesterday either was not wearing a body camera

2122
01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:04,920
Speaker 9: or did not have it activated when.

2123
01:49:04,800 --> 01:49:10,679
Speaker 1: He encountered show. That's convenient. That would have been gold

2124
01:49:10,800 --> 01:49:12,599
Speaker 1: footage right there. What are we doing?

2125
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:16,400
Speaker 3: I'll be honest, that's a big red flag for me.

2126
01:49:17,720 --> 01:49:19,320
Speaker 3: Why you're wearing a bodycam if it's not on?

2127
01:49:20,479 --> 01:49:27,080
Speaker 2: Well, that's yeah, that's yeah, that's true, definitely true. Fox

2128

Speaker 2: Sports Saturday. Right here on Fox Sports Radio. Hey, shortly

Speaker 2: get off the air, just one minute, real fast on.

2136
01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:49,200
Speaker 2: This makes me think of a tweet we got earlier

2137
01:49:49,240 --> 01:49:53,759
Speaker 2: in the show. Abigail checked in and wrote, Scotti Scheffler

2138
01:49:53,880 --> 01:49:57,000
Speaker 2: kept going after the officer told him to stop, and

2139
01:49:57,120 --> 01:50:00,360
Speaker 2: even after the officer quote unquote attached him himself to

2140
01:50:00,439 --> 01:50:04,479
Speaker 2: the car, he still kept going. When an officer says stop,

2141
01:50:04,680 --> 01:50:09,240
Speaker 2: you stop, quit making excuses for him. Now here's the thing,

2142
01:50:09,360 --> 01:50:13,960
Speaker 2: Jared I said the same thing, like, this is not

2143
01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:17,479
Speaker 2: a suggestion, this is an order. And if Scotty Scheffler

2144
01:50:17,960 --> 01:50:22,560
Speaker 2: disobeyed it intentionally or unintentionally. It's a thing, right, We

2145
01:50:22,720 --> 01:50:25,120
Speaker 2: both said, we weren't there. We don't know exactly, so

2146
01:50:25,240 --> 01:50:26,720
Speaker 2: we threw out different possibilities.

2147
01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:29,280
Speaker 3: Now we don't know because the body so now we'll

2148
01:50:29,320 --> 01:50:33,599
Speaker 3: never know, yeah, he said, he said, yeah, but hey man,

2149
01:50:33,840 --> 01:50:36,080
Speaker 3: it could have been one of these things where he

2150
01:50:36,720 --> 01:50:37,800
Speaker 3: disobeyed an order.

2151
01:50:38,479 --> 01:50:41,800
Speaker 2: He might not have known it was an order, right,

2152
01:50:42,760 --> 01:50:45,280
Speaker 2: or he did know. It's one of those two possibilities.

2153
01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:47,519
Speaker 2: We weren't there, We don't know, but it'll be a

2154
01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:49,799
Speaker 2: rain Tuesday. It'll probably be reduced.

2155
01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:52,280
Speaker 3: This is a big has to be because assault of

2156
01:50:52,320 --> 01:50:56,439
Speaker 3: a police officer is a felony in the state of Kentucky. Right,

2157
01:50:56,680 --> 01:50:59,360
Speaker 3: I just I And and again I'm not stumping for

2158
01:50:59,479 --> 01:51:05,519
Speaker 3: Scotty here. I'm not pro golf. I'm pro rules. But

2159
01:51:05,680 --> 01:51:07,880
Speaker 3: that seems a bit of a that's a that's an

2160
01:51:07,920 --> 01:51:09,879
Speaker 3: extreme charge for this situation.

2161
01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:13,000
Speaker 2: Well, it depends, right if the guy attached himself to

2162
01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:15,599
Speaker 2: the car and Scotty keeps going and the cop falls

2163
01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:19,880
Speaker 2: down and injures himself, and that's that's a thing. It'd

2164
01:51:19,920 --> 01:51:21,960
Speaker 2: be like if you went up to a cop on

2165
01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:23,880
Speaker 2: the street and punched him and he got injured. It's

2166
01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:26,080
Speaker 2: a thing, right, So if you're in a moving vehicle

2167
01:51:26,120 --> 01:51:28,360
Speaker 2: and the guy gets hurt, Yeah, I get why you

2168
01:51:28,360 --> 01:51:29,400
Speaker 2: would have a charge that.

2169
01:51:29,520 --> 01:51:35,720
Speaker 3: Severe assault to me in implies intent though to me, well,

2170
01:51:35,800 --> 01:51:37,720
Speaker 3: that's when we get yeah, we get into that's where

2171
01:51:37,720 --> 01:51:38,280
Speaker 3: it gets money.

2172
01:51:38,600 --> 01:51:40,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it gets money for real fast.

2173
01:51:40,880 --> 01:51:43,160
Speaker 1: How about this. I've got a I've got a theory

2174
01:51:43,240 --> 01:51:43,439
Speaker 1: for you.

2175
01:51:43,560 --> 01:51:43,720
Speaker 3: Here.

2176
01:51:43,840 --> 01:51:47,479
Speaker 2: We're getting ready for Game seven. The second two best

2177
01:51:47,520 --> 01:51:50,320
Speaker 2: words in sports, right, super Bowl are the best. We

2178
01:51:50,520 --> 01:51:53,919
Speaker 2: cleared that up earlier in the show. But Game seven tomorrow,

2179
01:51:54,520 --> 01:52:00,920
Speaker 2: Timberwolves and Nuggets. Here's my theory, Jared, I don't think

2180
01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:05,120
Speaker 2: organizations that give out free chicken for missed free throws

2181
01:52:05,400 --> 01:52:08,880
Speaker 2: have ever won anything. I could be wrong, I could

2182
01:52:08,920 --> 01:52:10,880
Speaker 2: be wrong. I don't know, but I think about this

2183
01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:14,479
Speaker 2: with the Timberwolves. So this goes back to it was

2184
01:52:14,720 --> 01:52:19,400
Speaker 2: Game four, so it's at home, they're getting blown out,

2185
01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:23,639
Speaker 2: blown out, and the fans are cheering for two missed

2186
01:52:23,640 --> 01:52:26,320
Speaker 2: free throws from the Nuggets so they can get free chicken.

2187
01:52:27,000 --> 01:52:29,200
Speaker 2: And I just thought, right then, I'm like, I don't

2188
01:52:29,240 --> 01:52:32,200
Speaker 2: think you guys have wanted anything. Has there been an organization,

2189
01:52:32,880 --> 01:52:38,080
Speaker 2: where in the playoffs they're still in incentivizing fans to

2190
01:52:38,400 --> 01:52:40,639
Speaker 2: cheer for miss free throws so they get free chicken.

2191
01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:42,160
Speaker 1: I could be wrong about this.

2192
01:52:42,200 --> 01:52:44,280
Speaker 3: Miss on purpose? Didn't the guy miss on purpose and

2193
01:52:44,400 --> 01:52:45,760
Speaker 3: he did? That was great bo By.

2194
01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:49,439
Speaker 2: That was it was the Rockets against the Clippers, and

2195
01:52:49,560 --> 01:52:51,880
Speaker 2: he missed the first free throw and he started looking

2196
01:52:51,880 --> 01:52:53,760
Speaker 2: at the crowd. He's like, all right, this is for you.

2197
01:52:54,040 --> 01:52:56,280
Speaker 2: I'm gonna miss on purpose and you get free chicken.

2198
01:52:56,560 --> 01:52:59,880
Speaker 2: That was the regular season, right, it was the regular

2199
01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:02,960
Speaker 2: season when he did that. These are the playoffs, bro,

2200
01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:06,240
Speaker 2: Could you imagine and the Knicks haven't won anything in

2201
01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:09,960
Speaker 2: a long time. Can you imagine the garden The Knicks

2202
01:53:10,000 --> 01:53:14,639
Speaker 2: are getting worked by thirty points tomorrow and they're still

2203
01:53:14,800 --> 01:53:19,559
Speaker 2: screaming and cheering for free chicken. Really, you haven't won

2204
01:53:19,680 --> 01:53:22,639
Speaker 2: anything If you still do that in the playoffs, you can't.

2205
01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can't.

2206
01:53:24,320 --> 01:53:28,240
Speaker 3: I think I saw that Seattle. I think it was Seattle,

2207
01:53:28,640 --> 01:53:30,760
Speaker 3: one of the baseball teams. I think it was the

2208
01:53:30,880 --> 01:53:33,400
Speaker 3: Mariners are doing a thing where they drop hot dogs

2209
01:53:33,520 --> 01:53:34,920
Speaker 3: that saw to the people.

2210
01:53:35,160 --> 01:53:35,679
Speaker 1: That's great.

2211
01:53:36,000 --> 01:53:38,439
Speaker 3: I mean, you've got to be creative when you're trying

2212
01:53:38,439 --> 01:53:41,439
Speaker 3: to engage with the fan base. I think in the postseason, though,

2213
01:53:42,080 --> 01:53:44,639
Speaker 3: you don't need to be creative to get people excited

2214
01:53:44,680 --> 01:53:45,320
Speaker 3: about the game.

2215
01:53:45,640 --> 01:53:49,000
Speaker 2: In the game, that is the excitement part. I went

2216
01:53:49,040 --> 01:53:52,479
Speaker 2: to a Pelicans game just a few weeks ago. They

2217
01:53:52,520 --> 01:53:55,200
Speaker 2: were doing the same thing. It might have actually been

2218
01:53:55,320 --> 01:53:58,599
Speaker 2: Game four when they were about to get swept Jared,

2219
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:02,880
Speaker 2: They're still cheering free chicken in the fourth quarter.

2220
01:54:03,080 --> 01:54:04,360
Speaker 1: People love free stuff.

2221
01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:06,280
Speaker 3: I'm doing this new thing on Twitter where I'm giving

2222
01:54:06,320 --> 01:54:08,680
Speaker 3: away money when I win my bets. You'd be so

2223
01:54:09,160 --> 01:54:11,639
Speaker 3: nobody interacts with my tweets when I just send them out.

2224
01:54:11,680 --> 01:54:14,240
Speaker 3: But when I say, hey, if this bet wins and

2225
01:54:14,360 --> 01:54:17,040
Speaker 3: you like the tweet, you're getting free money, Well then

2226
01:54:17,080 --> 01:54:20,200
Speaker 3: it's like a race to like the tweet first.

2227
01:54:21,240 --> 01:54:21,640
Speaker 1: I get it.

2228
01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:25,280
Speaker 2: Hey, man, no disagreement here. People love free stuff. But

2229
01:54:25,400 --> 01:54:29,360
Speaker 2: if you're like, hey, we know it's the playoffs, they

2230
01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:34,720
Speaker 2: should be invested anyway, but let's just add the extra

2231
01:54:34,840 --> 01:54:36,480
Speaker 2: incentive a free chicken.

2232
01:54:36,640 --> 01:54:39,360
Speaker 3: It's like, bro, Well, here's the thing about Minnesota's game

2233
01:54:39,400 --> 01:54:42,240
Speaker 3: the other night. So because Minnesota was down in the

2234
01:54:42,320 --> 01:54:45,200
Speaker 3: series and kind of you know, vibes were low. The

2235
01:54:45,320 --> 01:54:47,720
Speaker 3: ticket prices from what I heard you know from a

2236
01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:49,960
Speaker 3: friend who you know is very close to that.

2237
01:54:50,400 --> 01:54:51,040
Speaker 1: You know that team.

2238
01:54:51,320 --> 01:54:54,640
Speaker 3: We're relatively moderate for a playoff game, which allowed a

2239
01:54:54,720 --> 01:54:58,000
Speaker 3: lot of the rabid, screaming, crazy fans who are you know,

2240
01:54:58,160 --> 01:54:59,960
Speaker 3: maybe not as high income as some of the more

2241
01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:03,800
Speaker 3: corporate fans into that building and you saw the result.

2242
01:55:03,880 --> 01:55:06,080
Speaker 1: I mean, that place was a frenzy the other night

2243
01:55:06,360 --> 01:55:06,720
Speaker 1: it was.

2244
01:55:07,280 --> 01:55:08,840
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. Right, We've got a

2245
01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:12,080
Speaker 2: Jared Smith FSR betting analyst. I'm Brian No coming up next.

2247
01:55:15,040 --> 01:55:16,000
Speaker 2: NBA playoffs?

2248
01:55:16,200 --> 01:55:16,400
Speaker 8: Huh?

01:55:16,800 --> 01:55:19,120
Speaker 1: Game six tomorrow? Our game six today?

2250
01:55:19,200 --> 01:55:23,400

2264
01:56:03,800 --> 01:56:05,360
Speaker 1: We got some picks to make. Let's do it.

2265
01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:09,360
Speaker 4: Rapid fire.

2266
01:56:10,240 --> 01:56:11,680
Speaker 1: All right, Jared, we'll start with you.

2267
01:56:11,800 --> 01:56:12,280
Speaker 8: What do you like?

2268
01:56:12,920 --> 01:56:15,320
Speaker 3: Well, I'll start in the hockey world, because we've got

2269
01:56:15,360 --> 01:56:18,960
Speaker 3: a very interesting game tonight, a Game six in Edmonton

2270
01:56:19,040 --> 01:56:21,120
Speaker 3: between the Oilers and the Canuts. I don't bet a

2271
01:56:21,400 --> 01:56:23,920
Speaker 3: ton of hockey, but I have been watching this series

2272
01:56:24,040 --> 01:56:28,160
Speaker 3: pretty closely, and I'll be honest. The Oilers were a

2273
01:56:28,200 --> 01:56:32,320
Speaker 3: big nothing berger in Game five. I thought they had

2274
01:56:32,360 --> 01:56:34,839
Speaker 3: a chance to maybe win that game, but but Vancouver

2275
01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:37,360
Speaker 3: really went across the finish line. So we're gonna we're

2276
01:56:37,360 --> 01:56:39,920
Speaker 3: gonna bank on this series going seven. Like best two

2277
01:56:39,960 --> 01:56:42,200
Speaker 3: words in sports, or as Brian say, the second second

2278
01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:45,000
Speaker 3: best two words in sports. I had to throw that

2279
01:56:45,080 --> 01:56:47,200
Speaker 3: in there at the end here. But the Oilers are

2280
01:56:47,240 --> 01:56:48,800
Speaker 3: like a two dollars favorites. So we're not gonna bet

2281
01:56:48,880 --> 01:56:51,680
Speaker 3: Edmonton straight up. We're gonna bet them to win in regulation.

2282
01:56:52,040 --> 01:56:54,080
Speaker 3: And that's how you get a little more value sometimes

2283
01:56:54,120 --> 01:56:57,000
Speaker 3: in the NHL markets for a big favorite, you you

2284
01:56:57,520 --> 01:57:00,720
Speaker 3: kind of reduce your ability to win the bet by

2285
01:57:00,840 --> 01:57:03,160
Speaker 3: only saying they're gonna win in regulation. So we don't

2286
01:57:03,160 --> 01:57:05,680
Speaker 3: want overtime here. We want the Oilers to win in regulation.

2287
01:57:05,760 --> 01:57:08,280
Speaker 3: It's about minus one twenty five over at at MGM.

2288
01:57:08,520 --> 01:57:10,000
Speaker 3: But I do think we see a game seven in

2289
01:57:10,040 --> 01:57:12,840
Speaker 3: this series. Edmonton takes care of business on home ice tonight.

2290
01:57:12,960 --> 01:57:14,880
Speaker 3: And I'll give you those NBA props because I'll be honest,

2291
01:57:14,960 --> 01:57:17,040
Speaker 3: I was skiring the baseball markets today. Don't love a

2292
01:57:17,120 --> 01:57:20,200
Speaker 3: ton in the Urfi nurfy world, but I really like

2293
01:57:20,280 --> 01:57:22,200
Speaker 3: these props, and I gave him earlier in the show,

2294
01:57:22,200 --> 01:57:23,080
Speaker 3: and I'm gonna use him in.

2295
01:57:23,040 --> 01:57:25,480
Speaker 1: A rapid fire here. I'm kind of double dipping, but

2296
01:57:25,600 --> 01:57:26,120
Speaker 1: I do think.

2297
01:57:26,080 --> 01:57:28,120
Speaker 3: Jalen Williams over four and a half assists. I mean,

2298
01:57:28,160 --> 01:57:30,800
Speaker 3: this dude is a point forward. The number was five

2299
01:57:30,840 --> 01:57:32,720
Speaker 3: and a half at home. We got a bit of

2300
01:57:32,760 --> 01:57:35,720
Speaker 3: a discount because the thunder didn't play well in that game,

2301
01:57:35,800 --> 01:57:37,360
Speaker 3: and now it's back down to four and a half.

2302
01:57:37,440 --> 01:57:39,040
Speaker 3: I love him going over. He leads a team in

2303
01:57:39,120 --> 01:57:41,880
Speaker 3: passes in this series and in Kyrie Irving as well.

2304
01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:45,920
Speaker 3: Incredible distribution numbers in this series for Kyrie Irving not

2305
01:57:46,040 --> 01:57:49,520
Speaker 3: looking for his shot as much more of a passer.

2306
01:57:49,760 --> 01:57:51,720
Speaker 1: So Kyrie Irving over five and a half.

2307
01:57:51,560 --> 01:57:54,920
Speaker 3: Assists, Jalen Williams over four and a half assists, and

2308
01:57:55,040 --> 01:57:58,240
Speaker 3: the Oilers to win in regulation in Game six tonight.

2309
01:57:58,720 --> 01:58:02,800
Speaker 2: Okay, good stuff. I'm going to start it off with

2310
01:58:03,400 --> 01:58:08,440
Speaker 2: hoops tomorrow. Game seven. Two second best words in sports.

2311
01:58:11,520 --> 01:58:14,960
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson. Give me over thirty five and a half.

2312
01:58:15,160 --> 01:58:15,400
Speaker 4: Love it.

2313
01:58:16,280 --> 01:58:18,120
Speaker 1: He had five points in the first half.

2314
01:58:18,160 --> 01:58:23,280
Speaker 2: He ended with thirty one yesterday, Jared, he's hunting Andrew nemhard.

2315
01:58:23,480 --> 01:58:27,160
Speaker 2: I think that Jalen Brunson comes to play in a

2316
01:58:27,240 --> 01:58:30,120
Speaker 2: Game seven, I think he's gonna be very hard to stop.

2317
01:58:30,480 --> 01:58:32,480
Speaker 1: Give me over thirty five and a half points for him.

2318
01:58:33,520 --> 01:58:40,040
Speaker 2: I am going to fade the Indiana Fever. I'm taking

2319
01:58:40,040 --> 01:58:41,560
Speaker 2: it to the WNBA, all right.

2320
01:58:41,560 --> 01:58:43,320
Speaker 1: I like the w We're going back the w LOT

2321
01:58:43,360 --> 01:58:43,760
Speaker 1: this summer.

2322
01:58:44,120 --> 01:58:46,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just no match for the New York Liberty.

2323
01:58:46,600 --> 01:58:49,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna lay, Jared. It's a high number. I'm gonna

2324
01:58:49,080 --> 01:58:52,640
Speaker 2: lay thirteen and a half. The Indiana fever is just

2325
01:58:52,840 --> 01:58:56,760
Speaker 2: they're not about that life just yet. Okay, so I

2326
01:58:56,920 --> 01:58:59,520
Speaker 2: think Sabrini Yadescu and the girls smack him around again.

2327
01:58:59,600 --> 01:59:01,520
Speaker 2: Briennas do it at a huge game the other day

2328
01:59:01,880 --> 01:59:04,640
Speaker 2: against the same opponent, So think it happens again. And

2329
01:59:04,800 --> 01:59:06,920
Speaker 2: let me go to baseball here for the last one.

2330
01:59:07,360 --> 01:59:09,280
Speaker 2: The Oakland A's have had a heck of a time

2331
01:59:09,320 --> 01:59:13,640
Speaker 2: scoring runs here lately. Yeah, they cannot score. So I

2332
01:59:13,760 --> 01:59:17,640
Speaker 2: am going to go with the Kansas City Royals. Give

2333
01:59:17,640 --> 01:59:19,920
Speaker 2: me them on the run line minus one and a half,

2334
01:59:20,120 --> 01:59:22,600
Speaker 2: okay against Oakland is what I'm gonna go with here.

2335
01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:24,960
Speaker 1: Did you think nerfy with them at all? Jared, I

2336
01:59:25,040 --> 01:59:27,720
Speaker 1: know you're yeah, yeah, I've been doing this. We're so.

2337
01:59:27,880 --> 01:59:31,120
Speaker 3: MGM has this thing where you can take individual teams

2338
01:59:31,880 --> 01:59:34,920
Speaker 3: and do the nerfy, and so I these days because

2339
01:59:34,960 --> 01:59:37,360
Speaker 3: it's hard sometimes and I tweak this out a lot.

2340
01:59:37,640 --> 01:59:41,640
Speaker 3: It's hard sometimes to get both pitchers right on the

2341
01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:44,680
Speaker 3: nurfy because it's sometimes like only a good matchup on

2342
01:59:44,800 --> 01:59:47,720
Speaker 3: one side. But I do have the A's in my

2343
01:59:48,200 --> 01:59:52,000
Speaker 3: nerfy lay is what I call it nurfy parlay, and

2344
01:59:52,440 --> 01:59:55,240
Speaker 3: they are a minus three point fifty not to score

2345
01:59:55,280 --> 01:59:56,760
Speaker 3: in the first inning today. I've paired them up with

2346
01:59:56,760 --> 01:59:58,800
Speaker 3: a couple of other bigger favorites, but yes, I do

2347
01:59:58,920 --> 01:59:59,640
Speaker 3: think Seth Lugo.

2348
02:00:00,160 --> 02:00:01,920
Speaker 1: He's made some tweaks to his game. He has been

2349
02:00:02,080 --> 02:00:04,840
Speaker 1: fantastic for the Royals so far this year. He has

2350
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:11,600
Speaker 1: been and man, the Cubs Ace is going today as well. Yeah, yeah,

2351
02:00:11,600 --> 02:00:12,160
Speaker 1: in Minaga.

2352
02:00:12,200 --> 02:00:17,080
Speaker 3: You go over strikeouts today for sure against the sastic man, Jared,

2353
02:00:17,320 --> 02:00:18,960
Speaker 3: I'm sorry Rich's picks.

2354
02:00:19,120 --> 02:00:21,080
Speaker 1: Rich not with us today. He'll be back next week,

2355
02:00:21,160 --> 02:00:22,000
Speaker 1: but he's going.

2356
02:00:22,160 --> 02:00:25,440
Speaker 2: Okay, c plus the three and a half today, he's

2357
02:00:25,480 --> 02:00:27,560
Speaker 2: got the t Wolves plus five and a half and

2358
02:00:27,720 --> 02:00:31,920
Speaker 2: the Knicks minus doing alright, man, we'll see if they

2359
02:00:31,960 --> 02:00:35,160
Speaker 2: can pull it out and then get wrecked by Boston
