<v Speaker 2>some added benefits because we have a great production staff,

0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:01.520
<v Speaker 2>the leader of which Blue Duck is here in New

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:06.039
<v Speaker 2>York on what I take to be a trip. He's,

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:08.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, expensing, but I think it's to see Adam Sandler,

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:11.120
<v Speaker 2>So I don't really know. Maybe I wasn't supposed to

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:13.360
<v Speaker 2>say that, but you know, it's such a life. Gabe

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 2>want something on the air, it's like going off the

<v Speaker 2>record with a New York Times journalist. You have to

0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:28.480

0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:32.480
<v Speaker 2>blah blah, I said all this. Oh, by the way,

0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 2>don't say that on the show. Now, you didn't. Never know.

0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:38.120
<v Speaker 2>We're always here at service of the audience. We have

0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:41.319
<v Speaker 2>a ton to do today. Today's a massive day. I

<v Speaker 2>So we will discuss the first edition of the What's

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 2>Right Book Club. Gabe is standing there looking to the

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 2>book A Little History of the World by the giving

0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:12.720
<v Speaker 2>the look on his face. Gabe has not yet started

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:16.200
<v Speaker 2>his copy. He has started reading it. But let's discuss

0:02:16.280 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 2>what's not making the show today. What is not on

0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 2>the show today is the following Cream Hunts trade rumors

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 2>swirling as the Browns realize there's seasons done that I

0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:29.600
<v Speaker 2>can bring it back next year. Mac Jones inexplicably back

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 2>as the starter for the Patriots. And evidently that show,

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>that Star Wars cartoon that ripped off my likeness made it.

0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:41.079
<v Speaker 2>It came out this week. Freddie Prince Junior, that name

0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:43.640
<v Speaker 2>means nothing to you, demnse But to the listeners and

0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 2>viewers my age, they know exactly who he is. Freddie

0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Prince Junior tweeted to me saying he thinks I have

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 2>a legitimate lawsuit against Disney and he has a great

0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 2>entertainment lawyer. Shout out, Freddie Prince. We appreciate that, all right.

0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean that, listen. I mean that's me. That's me

0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:04.880
<v Speaker 2>next to Sam Jackson in Star Wars. I'm getting zero

0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 2>dollars Disney final offer before I get the lawyers involved.

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Give me an audition for a role in the next

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:18.080
<v Speaker 2>live action Star Wars movie. That's all I ask. You.

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Give me that and I'll sign a little release saying

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:23.200
<v Speaker 2>you can use my likeness. You don't have to give

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.640
<v Speaker 2>me a role, just an audition. You do that, I

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:30.400
<v Speaker 2>give you the release. If not, we're gonna have a

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 2>big boys schiller in whomever whatever for my assistants. For

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be big problem. All right, Demonse, what are

0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:38.760
<v Speaker 2>we starting with?

0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 3>Start with nets? Bucks?

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah and Nets.

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 4>We're awesome for the first half last night, but then

0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.960
<v Speaker 4>Giannis took over and Nash managed to get a jacted. Yeah,

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:48.120
<v Speaker 4>the Bucks are undefeated and Giannis has scored damn near

0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 4>ninety points in his last two games.

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's eighty seven, which is his career high over

0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:54.960
<v Speaker 2>too games. I was surprised by that because he scored

0:03:55.000 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 2>fifty in the finals, but the game before that least

0:03:58.080 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty two. Yeah, exactly right, all right, go ahead.

0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:03.720
<v Speaker 4>Meanwhile, Ben Simmons still won't shoot, and Kyrie's pissed when

0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 4>people are asking about him.

0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, about it last night? More about the nets of

0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:09.680
<v Speaker 3>the Bucks.

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Or I think it's more about the nets. But we're

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:13.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna start with the Bucks here just for a moment.

0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:20.960
<v Speaker 2>The I think somehow Giannis is still underrated. I think

0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 2>there is still failure to understand that when it comes

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:35.920
<v Speaker 2>to playing winning basketball, he is an a triple plus

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 2>being a good teammate. He is an A triple plus

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 2>being an excellent lead by example guy. He is an

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 2>a triple plus being able to score at will efficiently

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 2>at high enough levels to win the scoring title if

0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 2>you played enough minutes. He's an A plus. And defensively

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.919
<v Speaker 2>he's an a triple plus. There is nothing on the

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 2>court he doesn't do exceptionally well except for shoot jump shots,

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:09.480
<v Speaker 2>and because of that, he can kind of do that,

0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:12.120
<v Speaker 2>but also because of that, he just doesn't shoot a

0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 2>lot of them. And the reason theoretically not having a

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 2>reliable jump shot could be damaging as well. Then guys

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:26.159
<v Speaker 2>can defend you differently, but they can't. They can't stop him.

0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 2>That the nets were up by eleven early in the

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:33.239
<v Speaker 2>third quarter, I'm sorry, up by twelve from that moment forward,

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:37.640
<v Speaker 2>Giannis was twelve of twelve from the field. He had

0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:43.000
<v Speaker 2>thirty four second half points on thirteen of fifteen shooting.

0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 2>He's they don't have Chris Middleton yet. I don't love

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:49.279
<v Speaker 2>the roster as a whole. They're the only undefeated team

0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:54.159
<v Speaker 2>in the league because of him. So the we talked

0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:58.240
<v Speaker 2>so much about bags and Hesy, Jimbo's and all this nonsense.

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:04.680
<v Speaker 2>That's fun to look at, but what wins what matters

0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:08.159
<v Speaker 2>in this league. Giannis has all of it, every single

0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:12.480
<v Speaker 2>thing you would want, and he is going to finish

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:15.800
<v Speaker 2>his career as one of the ten greatest players ever.

0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:19.720
<v Speaker 3>So a few episodes we asked about that MVP race.

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 2>Is it looking like well, I don't even even by

0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.800
<v Speaker 2>goofy sports media stuff. I think a week and a

0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:32.359
<v Speaker 2>half in is too early to talk MVP. But like

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.960
<v Speaker 2>he was a Player of the Week or something like that. Sure,

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.799
<v Speaker 2>but it's too early for that. Tatum, your guy, Tatum

0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 2>has been awesome. John Moran's been awesome, Luca has been awesome,

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.560
<v Speaker 2>but the team's not winning. And so Luca Nets tonight.

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Now to the Nets. I'm not trying to toot my

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 2>own horn. I hate that phrase. I don't know why

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I just used it, but let me read you a

0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:59.760
<v Speaker 2>tweet I sent last night mid third quarter when the

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:04.560
<v Speaker 2>Nets were ahead. The Nets played really smart, connected, high

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:08.479
<v Speaker 2>intensity basketball for the first half. Then Yannis started attacking.

0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 2>They got a few tough whistles, and now they're just

0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:16.520
<v Speaker 2>going to fold up shop, same old hashtag next year Nets.

0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.600
<v Speaker 2>I think from that moment forward, Milwaukee went on like

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:25.280
<v Speaker 2>a thirty eight to fifteen run Matt maybe in thirty

0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 2>eight nineteen. The Nets cannot be bothered to try for

0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 2>a full forty eight minutes. It's like they're above it.

0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 2>And there is part of me that feels for Kevin Durant.

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.240
<v Speaker 2>He didn't want to be there. He knew this team

0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:50.040
<v Speaker 2>was broken. He tried to get out, He played his hand.

0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.679
<v Speaker 2>You know, the owner called evidently what was a bluff?

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 2>And now he's stuck. That makes me feel badly for him.

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.400
<v Speaker 2>Here's the other thing that makes me badly for him.

0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:04.760
<v Speaker 2>And this is what I tweeted last year after a

0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Nets Bucks game, and Katie got all upset said about it,

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:11.520
<v Speaker 2>and you know said that I I don't know what

0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:12.240
<v Speaker 2>he called me.

0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:12.960
<v Speaker 3>But a peasant.

0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:15.880
<v Speaker 2>A peasant and when we called him, when I said,

0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Katie is destined to life as number two, like Katie

0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.360
<v Speaker 2>had to. If he's being honest at the end of

0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 2>that game, say well, moving forward, there won't be a

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:33.440
<v Speaker 2>day of my life. I'm better than Yanness, which means,

0:08:33.600 --> 0:08:37.040
<v Speaker 2>as great as he is, one of the fifteen best

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.920
<v Speaker 2>players in the last fifty years, is going to go

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:44.400
<v Speaker 2>his entire basketball career without ever being the best player

0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:48.160
<v Speaker 2>in the world. It seems like it. It seems like

0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:52.560
<v Speaker 2>he deserves better, but it's just true. And I know

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:56.920
<v Speaker 2>some people might say, what about twenty seventeen, his first

0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 2>year with the Warriors, he was better than Stephan those fives,

0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 2>he was better than Lebron in those finals, in that series,

0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:11.520
<v Speaker 2>he was better. However, the two years surrounding it. In sixteen,

0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Steph and Lebron were on a totally different plane than Durant,

0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 2>and the next year was I believe one could argue

0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Lebron's single greatest season. So was Durant the best player

0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:29.400
<v Speaker 2>in the world for a couple months. I some people

0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:32.360
<v Speaker 2>would say yes. I would say if Lebron was better

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.079
<v Speaker 2>than him in sixteen, better than him in eighteen, he

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 2>was probably better than him in seventeen as well. He

0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:39.040
<v Speaker 2>was just on the best team ever, you know, put together,

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 2>he being KD. It's just the Nets have no outs

0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 2>other than firing the coach, but that won't fix the roster.

0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:52.200
<v Speaker 2>And Ben Simmons, I know he's rusty, but he appears

0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:56.319
<v Speaker 2>to be a broken player. And so I think they

0:09:56.360 --> 0:10:00.280
<v Speaker 2>are the Lakers who were going to get to are

0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 2>horrible offensively and zero to four. Then that's who we

0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 2>just talked about. Are horrible defensively, even though they played

0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:11.800
<v Speaker 2>decent defense last night, and one in three. Both teams

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:15.560
<v Speaker 2>have two star players and then a mismatch rest of

0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:18.640
<v Speaker 2>the roster. They're a lot more similar than people think. Next,

0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:22.480
<v Speaker 2>all right, the Lakers are not looking too hot. They're

0:10:22.520 --> 0:10:24.600
<v Speaker 2>one of three teams who have yet to get a win.

0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:26.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you always have a lot of trash talk to

0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 4>say on the Joker, but he easily outplayed Lebron.

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.120
<v Speaker 3>You're a poker player. Since when does a joker beat

0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:32.480
<v Speaker 3>a king?

0:10:32.679 --> 0:10:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, joker always beats a king. A joker can be

0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:37.480
<v Speaker 2>literally any card in the deck. So I don't know

0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.040
<v Speaker 2>who wrote that for you, but it's a setup or

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:42.319
<v Speaker 2>always beats the king. Go ahead, Okay, I.

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.040
<v Speaker 4>Was kind of thinking that. Yeah, but are the Lakers

0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:47.160
<v Speaker 4>at risk of be in the first eight two?

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:49.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, No, they're not gonna be on eighty two, but

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:52.040
<v Speaker 2>they are terrible. And let me talk about Joker for

0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:54.680
<v Speaker 2>a moment. He was great last night. He put up

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.440
<v Speaker 2>the type of game I thought Lebron was going to

0:10:56.640 --> 0:11:03.320
<v Speaker 2>since I thought because Russ wasn't played, Lebron was gonna

0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:10.560
<v Speaker 2>have a vintage Lebron game to show Lakers management looks

0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 2>get some pieces. Lebron wasn't very good. In fact, it

0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:17.040
<v Speaker 2>was his worst game of the year by a decent margin,

0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:20.319
<v Speaker 2>and a ton of turnovers. Couldn't hit a shot. He

0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:23.839
<v Speaker 2>just flatly wasn't good. Joker, on the other hand, was sensational.

0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:27.240
<v Speaker 2>So I give him credit. And I'm not what did

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:31.000
<v Speaker 2>you say, I'm always talking trash on the Joker, maybe

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:34.160
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. I'm just offended that a guy who's

0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:37.160
<v Speaker 2>the seventh or eighth best player in the league back

0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:41.760
<v Speaker 2>to back one MVPs over Giannis, over Chris Paul, over

0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:45.400
<v Speaker 2>guys who were clearly better and led to more winning

0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 2>than he did. That's all. And this year, by the way,

0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:51.600
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna see it because now they do have all

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:53.640
<v Speaker 2>the pieces, and the Nuggets once again will be a

0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:57.719
<v Speaker 2>good but not great team. And so but I give

0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:01.599
<v Speaker 2>him credit. Last night last night, Joker was absolutely sensational.

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.320
<v Speaker 2>He was better than Lebron last night. He was the

0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:07.640
<v Speaker 2>best player on the court last night. And you know,

0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:12.360
<v Speaker 2>that's a great win for the Nets and the Lakers. Yes,

0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:16.360
<v Speaker 2>eventually they're going to trade Russ. My concern going into

0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 2>the year when they do it, will it be too

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.120
<v Speaker 2>late because it can get late early out in the

0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:27.559
<v Speaker 2>Western Conference and they are not just one shooter away. Obviously,

0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:30.439
<v Speaker 2>like Buddy Heel doesn't just come in and fix all

0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 2>their problems. I'm not acting like he does. But anything

0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.920
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers do until they trade us is kind of

0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:39.960
<v Speaker 2>meaningless other than dig themselves bigger holes. So what they

0:12:40.000 --> 0:12:45.840
<v Speaker 2>have is at Minnesota, then home for Denver, then home

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:49.439
<v Speaker 2>for New Orleans, will see how healthy they are, then

0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 2>home Utah, home Cleveland, at Utah, at the Clippers. Could

0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:59.800
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers be two and eight to start the year, Absolutely,

0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:04.200
<v Speaker 2>and could that make it to where their absolute best

0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:07.640
<v Speaker 2>case scenario is the play in Yes? Right now, do

0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:10.320
<v Speaker 2>they look like even with the Russ trade, they're a

0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:15.920
<v Speaker 2>playoff team? No, it's a terribly built roster. Eighties played fine,

0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:19.160
<v Speaker 2>but hasn't again been like, oh my god, there's the

0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.599
<v Speaker 2>guy we thought we were gonna get after the championship

0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:25.440
<v Speaker 2>and Lebron's in year twenty. It's remarkable that in year

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 2>twenty he's still I believe, a top ten player, but

0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:31.640
<v Speaker 2>he's hell a lot closer to ten than to one.

0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:36.120
<v Speaker 2>And it can be the best year twenty in NBA

0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 2>history by a mile, and still not anywhere near good

0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:44.000
<v Speaker 2>enough to carry this team anywhere that matters. It sucks.

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 2>Lakers are an uninteresting, bad basketball team right now. And

0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.360
<v Speaker 2>that was without Russ playing next. Huh?

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.679
<v Speaker 4>All right, the four and three Ravens take on a

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.559
<v Speaker 4>struggling Brady in the Bucks today. You said the Bucks

0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:58.800
<v Speaker 4>of the Broncos, or just like the Broncos with a

0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 4>better uh, with better or publica public relations we love nations.

0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:05.600
<v Speaker 4>You've also criticized Lamar for not growing as a passer.

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.439
<v Speaker 4>Are both of these teams being held by by their quarterbacks?

0:14:10.040 --> 0:14:16.200
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's a very interesting way to put it. So

0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:21.560
<v Speaker 2>Lamar needs to be better. Lamar hasn't played well in

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:28.080
<v Speaker 2>a month. Is he holding them back? No? Is he

0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:33.440
<v Speaker 2>preventing them right now? For like, without Lamar, that team

0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:38.880
<v Speaker 2>is trash. So so the not all, but the vast

0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 2>majority of their success is thanks to two people, two players,

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Lamar and Justin Tucker. Right, However, if they want to

0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:50.000
<v Speaker 2>be a real contender, he's got to be better. Yeah,

0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:52.520
<v Speaker 2>he flatly has to be the Lamar we saw the

0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:55.360
<v Speaker 2>first few weeks of the season. We said, there, he's

0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 2>the leading MVP candidate after three weeks the Patriots. I'm

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.560
<v Speaker 2>sorry the Patriots. The Bucks are in a very similar

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:11.000
<v Speaker 2>position in this regard. On offense, their offensive line injuries

0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.920
<v Speaker 2>up front have ruined their ability to have a deep

0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:19.440
<v Speaker 2>downfield passing game and run the football. Okay, so that's

0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:24.920
<v Speaker 2>not on Brady. However, the defense has been sensational, and

0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:28.400
<v Speaker 2>Brady is having one of the worst starts to a

0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:29.360
<v Speaker 2>season of his career.

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:31.680
<v Speaker 3>So it's.

0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:37.880
<v Speaker 2>Bill James used to say, he's a great baseball guy.

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Bad teams have an amazing ability to blame their best

0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 2>players for their biggest problems. Meaning when a team is bad,

0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 2>instead of being like, we're bad because we have all

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:53.320
<v Speaker 2>these bad players, they look at their best player and say,

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:56.000
<v Speaker 2>why don't you do more? Why don't you do more?

0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 2>There is an element to blaming Brady or Lamar for

0:15:59.880 --> 0:16:03.720
<v Speaker 2>the Bucks and Ravens problems. That is that they have

0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:06.720
<v Speaker 2>a lot of other issues. The Ravens still haven't been

0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:10.960
<v Speaker 2>able to build a secondary. Their running game is not

0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:13.160
<v Speaker 2>what you would think would be outside of Lamoar. They

0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:17.000
<v Speaker 2>haven't spent money on receiver. The Bucks had all these

0:16:17.040 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 2>offensive line injuries. They have the worst running attack in football.

0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Those things. Those things are not on the quarterback. However,

0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:28.160
<v Speaker 2>those quarterbacks. One is considered the greatest player ever. The

0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.080
<v Speaker 2>other won an MVP in year two and is on

0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:33.600
<v Speaker 2>a Hall of Fame trajectory, very early, but a hall

0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:37.960
<v Speaker 2>of Fame trajectory. If they those other problems are not

0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:41.880
<v Speaker 2>going to get fixed. So in order for them to

0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 2>be contender ish teams, they are going to need those guys,

0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:52.720
<v Speaker 2>those players to step up. And I don't know if

0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Brady still can. I know Lamar still can, but he's

0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:57.760
<v Speaker 2>got to get out of this rut. By the way,

0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:01.000
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned earlier, the great Gabe goodwins here. Who's a

0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:06.280
<v Speaker 2>professional Tom Brady hater. Gabe, I have some I had

0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:11.880
<v Speaker 2>a vision like Vissera's in his dreams. You're coming up here. Okay, yeah,

0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:16.000
<v Speaker 2>but game's right there. There is this world that exists

0:17:17.320 --> 0:17:20.720
<v Speaker 2>where the Tampa Bay Bucks go nine and eight or

0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:25.320
<v Speaker 2>even eight and nine and win that division, and they're

0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:29.720
<v Speaker 2>the four seed because you get that as the division winner.

0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:35.000
<v Speaker 2>And right now, the likely five seed is the New

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:40.879
<v Speaker 2>York Giants and Daniel Jones, and it's the four seed

0:17:42.160 --> 0:17:45.200
<v Speaker 2>you're likely if you win, assuming because I'm gonna say

0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:48.560
<v Speaker 2>something else, I would imagine there's a real good chance

0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:55.639
<v Speaker 2>that the Niners or the Niners in the Rams are

0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 2>gonna be the three six. I think if the road

0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:03.520
<v Speaker 2>team wins that the sixth seed, they then go to Philadelphia. Okay,

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:09.280
<v Speaker 2>And there is a real world that exists where Tom

0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:15.280
<v Speaker 2>Brady's path to the NFC Championship Game goes home for

0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:21.080
<v Speaker 2>Daniel Jones at Kirk Cousins and then in an NFC

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:26.760
<v Speaker 2>Championship game back at home against Jimmy Garoppolo to get

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:30.320
<v Speaker 2>to the super Bowl. That is, Gabe, I just want

0:18:30.359 --> 0:18:34.720
<v Speaker 2>you to emotionally prepare yourself for Brady to be having

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:38.480
<v Speaker 2>his worst season ever. And then we see the playoff

0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:43.440
<v Speaker 2>bracket and we say, wait, are the nine to eight

0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.679
<v Speaker 2>Bucks going to be hosting Jimmy Garoppolo in the NFC

0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:50.280
<v Speaker 2>title Game after beating Daniel Jones and Kirk Cousins to

0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:55.280
<v Speaker 2>get there. That is in play. It is one hundred

0:18:55.400 --> 0:19:00.440
<v Speaker 2>percent in play, and I need Gabe to be ready

0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:03.200
<v Speaker 2>for it because he might he might not be able

0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 2>to handle it. If Brady gets to his eleventh Super

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:11.320
<v Speaker 2>Bowl and it's by beating Kirk Cousins, Jimmy Garoppolo, and

0:19:11.400 --> 0:19:15.360
<v Speaker 2>Daniel Jones, I think it's in play. I also think,

0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:18.680
<v Speaker 2>by the way, I mean, you know, before the year

0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 2>I had Chiefs Niners in the Super Bowl, there is

0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:30.280
<v Speaker 2>something though poetic if it's Chiefs Bucks again and Mahomes

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:34.359
<v Speaker 2>gets even on him. Yeah, and that's what sends Brady

0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:38.159
<v Speaker 2>into retirement. Bonus take for our friend Gabe. I do

0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:43.479
<v Speaker 2>not think Brady's retiring after this year. You do, oh,

0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:46.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't think. I think he's definitely not retiring. I

0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:49.560
<v Speaker 2>think he's going to go next year and play for

0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:52.639
<v Speaker 2>a really good team. I think that's what's gonna happen.

0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:55.840
<v Speaker 2>I think, especially if he's actually getting divorced or has

0:19:55.840 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 2>gotten divorced, I think Brady's gonna play at least another year.

0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:03.200
<v Speaker 3>I can see it.

0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm putting both those takes out there, and poor Gabe.

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Gabe's gonna live in a world where the Jets go

0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:15.840
<v Speaker 2>eleven and six and somehow in the first round of

0:20:15.840 --> 0:20:19.200
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs are in Kansas City and get beaten by

0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:23.760
<v Speaker 2>thirty eight points and Brady goes nine to eight and

0:20:23.800 --> 0:20:26.040
<v Speaker 2>in the first round of the playoffs gets Daniel Jones

0:20:26.040 --> 0:20:26.360
<v Speaker 2>at home.

0:20:26.400 --> 0:20:28.960
<v Speaker 4>All right, next we got don't only the fans out,

0:20:28.960 --> 0:20:31.240
<v Speaker 4>We've got polls, but I don't know the updated document.

0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:34.200
<v Speaker 3>Guys. Okay, no, no, no, no, the wi FI.

0:20:34.080 --> 0:20:36.160
<v Speaker 2>It's not okay, it's working for me, so don't worry

0:20:36.200 --> 0:20:39.639
<v Speaker 2>about it. I've got the updated document. The sorry I

0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:44.119
<v Speaker 2>forgot the polls were there? Well, the Lakers get a

0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:48.160
<v Speaker 2>win anytime soon. The poll answer was no, fifty five percent.

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 2>And are the Bucks and Ravens being held back by

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:51.240
<v Speaker 2>their quarterback?

0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:54.800
<v Speaker 4>No? Was eighty percent? All right, next, all right? The

0:20:54.880 --> 0:20:57.720
<v Speaker 4>NFL trade deadline is on Tuesday. Several teams are in

0:20:57.880 --> 0:20:59.080
<v Speaker 4>make it or break weeks.

0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:02.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, traded for Robert Quinn to kick off their trade season.

0:21:02.480 --> 0:21:05.480
<v Speaker 2>By the way, real quick, don't lose your spot. I'm

0:21:05.560 --> 0:21:09.160
<v Speaker 2>so frustrated the Chiefs didn't make that trade fourth round

0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:12.600
<v Speaker 2>pick with the Bears paying his salary for I understand

0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:16.919
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs want to get their young Carlaftis on the field,

0:21:17.359 --> 0:21:19.240
<v Speaker 2>one of their big you know. One of the reasons

0:21:19.320 --> 0:21:22.160
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs of the Chiefs is early in seasons they

0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:25.800
<v Speaker 2>play their young players. They don't stack veterans ahead of them.

0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:28.520
<v Speaker 2>That way they can develop. But god, dogg it, I

0:21:28.520 --> 0:21:30.800
<v Speaker 2>would have liked George or Robert Quinn for a fourth

0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:31.960
<v Speaker 2>round pick go ahead.

0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:34.879
<v Speaker 4>With wins, teams will right their seasons and make a push.

0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:37.399
<v Speaker 4>With losses, they will be sellers and counting down to

0:21:37.440 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 4>the end of the season. Yeah, if the Packers and

0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:42.240
<v Speaker 4>Rams lose, should they start looking to next year and

0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:43.520
<v Speaker 4>be sellers at the deadline?

0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:46.240
<v Speaker 3>And if your Jags win, should they go all in it?

0:21:46.240 --> 0:21:46.359
<v Speaker 5>All?

0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:46.520
<v Speaker 3>Right?

0:21:46.560 --> 0:21:50.320
<v Speaker 2>No, no, this is no, no, no, all The Packers

0:21:50.359 --> 0:21:53.880
<v Speaker 2>and Rams can't be sellers. The Packers can't be sellers

0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:55.679
<v Speaker 2>because they only have a year or two left of

0:21:55.680 --> 0:22:01.320
<v Speaker 2>Aaron Rodgers. The Rams can't be sellers because they've they've

0:22:01.359 --> 0:22:04.199
<v Speaker 2>already spent all their draft capital. They need to be

0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.840
<v Speaker 2>trying to win right now, and that division so winnable,

0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:12.359
<v Speaker 2>so that wouldn't make sense. And the Jags absolutely should

0:22:12.400 --> 0:22:14.159
<v Speaker 2>not go all in. The Jags need to take a

0:22:14.280 --> 0:22:17.720
<v Speaker 2>long term view of this, not try to steal the

0:22:17.760 --> 0:22:20.400
<v Speaker 2>AFC South or the final wild card spot this year.

0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:22.520
<v Speaker 2>So that's listen. I do think there will be some

0:22:22.520 --> 0:22:24.760
<v Speaker 2>more moves, and I do think it's possible the Chiefs

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:27.800
<v Speaker 2>get involved in something I would have liked. Robert Quinn

0:23:58.400 --> 0:23:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Uh I need. I want to spend a few minutes

0:24:00.080 --> 0:24:02.240
<v Speaker 2>here before you get back to sports. Something that's going

0:24:02.280 --> 0:24:06.080
<v Speaker 2>on in my life right now. Because this is and

0:24:06.160 --> 0:24:07.760
<v Speaker 2>I hate to be this guy. I'm going to talk

0:24:07.800 --> 0:24:11.680
<v Speaker 2>about a problem without having a solution for it. There

0:24:11.800 --> 0:24:15.879
<v Speaker 2>has to be a better and more fair way for

0:24:16.040 --> 0:24:20.000
<v Speaker 2>young people to apply to colleges than the one we

0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:25.359
<v Speaker 2>currently have. Okay, so my daughter, my older daughter is

0:24:25.359 --> 0:24:28.280
<v Speaker 2>a senior in high school. She wants to be an actress.

0:24:30.160 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 2>I fully support that. I think she's brilliant on the stage,

0:24:33.800 --> 0:24:36.679
<v Speaker 2>and I think she has real talent. She's applying to

0:24:38.119 --> 0:24:41.119
<v Speaker 2>She doesn't really like when I talk about her business.

0:24:41.200 --> 0:24:43.679
<v Speaker 2>She's applying to a lot of schools, a dozen schools.

0:24:43.680 --> 0:24:47.199
<v Speaker 2>She's applying to the theater programs. Yeah, I'll name if

0:24:47.200 --> 0:24:53.320
<v Speaker 2>you applying to Syracuse, where I went Howard Spellman, USC,

0:24:53.680 --> 0:24:57.560
<v Speaker 2>not Cornell. I'm glad you're locked in. Appreciate that little

0:24:57.600 --> 0:25:01.720
<v Speaker 2>chime in. I'll handle this part, buddy, USC, I think

0:25:01.760 --> 0:25:03.840
<v Speaker 2>is where she really wants to go. That is maybe

0:25:03.840 --> 0:25:06.800
<v Speaker 2>the hardest theater's program to get into in the country. Gabe,

0:25:06.800 --> 0:25:09.879
<v Speaker 2>did you go to USC? Okay? I thought, you know,

0:25:09.920 --> 0:25:11.800
<v Speaker 2>for some reason, I thought Gabe might have gone to USC,

0:25:12.119 --> 0:25:16.000
<v Speaker 2>but he didn't. That's fine. Sorry, My apologies is USC fan.

0:25:16.040 --> 0:25:20.920
<v Speaker 2>That's right, A bunch of schools in southern California, and

0:25:21.160 --> 0:25:25.359
<v Speaker 2>like Loyola, Marriormount and Occidental Chapman, A bunch of those

0:25:25.400 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 2>schools and a bunch of the UC schools. She either

0:25:28.000 --> 0:25:32.600
<v Speaker 2>wants to be out in California, Syracuse or an HBCU.

0:25:32.920 --> 0:25:34.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm probably leaving somehow.

0:25:37.320 --> 0:25:38.560
<v Speaker 3>The work.

0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:47.160
<v Speaker 2>These kids have to put into these applications, each application

0:25:47.400 --> 0:25:52.800
<v Speaker 2>having not only your one long form essay, but sometimes

0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:56.800
<v Speaker 2>three or four supplemental essays, plus if you're applying to

0:25:56.840 --> 0:26:00.320
<v Speaker 2>a specialty program, and I understand it, and on dish

0:26:00.359 --> 0:26:05.200
<v Speaker 2>and tape and this plus the stuff that goes into

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:12.639
<v Speaker 2>SATACT prep plus all of these things. It doesn't Here's

0:26:12.680 --> 0:26:15.440
<v Speaker 2>what I think, and this is why I'm bringing up

0:26:15.720 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 2>because my daughter has amazing support structure.

0:26:19.080 --> 0:26:19.280
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:23.200
<v Speaker 2>She goes to a great school that has something called

0:26:23.280 --> 0:26:27.240
<v Speaker 2>college cluster, where like for seniors they have like a

0:26:27.400 --> 0:26:30.639
<v Speaker 2>period every other day where they just do college stuff.

0:26:30.760 --> 0:26:33.919
<v Speaker 2>They have a great college, multiple great college counselors. She

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 2>has not to sound weird, but she has me. I'm

0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:39.719
<v Speaker 2>good at that type of stuff. Now she's asked me

0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:42.119
<v Speaker 2>to be very hands off on it, but I'm still

0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:45.159
<v Speaker 2>there if she needs me. All of these things and

0:26:45.240 --> 0:26:53.200
<v Speaker 2>it's still is so overwhelming that I am having dreams

0:26:53.240 --> 0:26:56.480
<v Speaker 2>about the process each night. I can't imagine what she's

0:26:56.560 --> 0:27:00.400
<v Speaker 2>going through. So now, just just transport yourself back. You're

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:04.199
<v Speaker 2>seventeen years old. You're going through all the things you

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:07.840
<v Speaker 2>go through as a teenager. You're in your final stretch

0:27:07.840 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 2>of high school. If you're an athlete or an actress

0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:15.280
<v Speaker 2>like dior Is, you have practice or play practice or

0:27:15.320 --> 0:27:20.399
<v Speaker 2>athletic practice or whatever after school until six o'clock. You

0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:22.480
<v Speaker 2>have all these things going on. You have all your

0:27:22.480 --> 0:27:27.200
<v Speaker 2>regular school responsibilities, and then you have this overwhelming weight

0:27:27.920 --> 0:27:31.320
<v Speaker 2>of where you're going to get accepted into the schools

0:27:31.960 --> 0:27:35.639
<v Speaker 2>to deal with. Plus and again, like I said, for

0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:39.080
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the This is not Dior's situation, but

0:27:39.200 --> 0:27:40.840
<v Speaker 2>for so many of these kids, it's like and then

0:27:40.840 --> 0:27:44.040
<v Speaker 2>when I get in, can I even afford it? The

0:27:44.080 --> 0:27:48.960
<v Speaker 2>applications themselves, seventy five eighty bucks are rip just to apply.

0:27:49.920 --> 0:27:54.480
<v Speaker 2>And so I am bringing this up not because my

0:27:54.680 --> 0:27:56.840
<v Speaker 2>daughter is having a rough time. She's done a great

0:27:56.880 --> 0:27:59.199
<v Speaker 2>job with it and she'll be fine, even though it's overwhelming.

0:27:59.600 --> 0:28:06.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how it's possible for young people who

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:10.200
<v Speaker 2>maybe have to work a job to help support themselves

0:28:10.200 --> 0:28:13.720
<v Speaker 2>with their family, that go to a school that doesn't

0:28:13.720 --> 0:28:17.440
<v Speaker 2>have all these built in advantages that Yora does, that

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:25.800
<v Speaker 2>they could ever have an application that looks anywhere close

0:28:26.520 --> 0:28:29.600
<v Speaker 2>to a student that some of these, some of these

0:28:29.680 --> 0:28:33.960
<v Speaker 2>kids at my daughter's school, they hire someone not to

0:28:34.119 --> 0:28:37.640
<v Speaker 2>tutor them on the sat or Act, but hire someone

0:28:38.320 --> 0:28:42.280
<v Speaker 2>to help like tutor them on the application, if not

0:28:42.400 --> 0:28:46.080
<v Speaker 2>do the application. I'm not it. It just feels like.

0:28:47.800 --> 0:28:47.880
<v Speaker 4>It.

0:28:49.760 --> 0:28:56.560
<v Speaker 2>The attempt to, you know, create the best higher education

0:28:57.760 --> 0:29:02.760
<v Speaker 2>situation for our young people possible, has turned into another

0:29:03.040 --> 0:29:08.960
<v Speaker 2>instance where the deck is so incredibly stacked against poor kids.

0:29:10.000 --> 0:29:14.320
<v Speaker 2>And that's been my big takeaway on this, is that

0:29:14.720 --> 0:29:17.400
<v Speaker 2>we always say, like you know, put yourself by the

0:29:17.440 --> 0:29:20.560
<v Speaker 2>bootstraps and and you know, do good in school, and

0:29:20.600 --> 0:29:23.880
<v Speaker 2>you can do, but you know you can overcome your circumstances.

0:29:24.360 --> 0:29:32.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how a teenager without massive support, massive

0:29:32.560 --> 0:29:37.400
<v Speaker 2>financial means is going to be able to the vast majority,

0:29:37.440 --> 0:29:42.480
<v Speaker 2>that is, have what is essentially your life's long resume

0:29:44.760 --> 0:29:51.440
<v Speaker 2>measure up to kids who are in such easier situations.

0:29:52.040 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 2>And it just strikes me as I again, like I said,

0:29:55.200 --> 0:29:56.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't have a solution. This is a problem without

0:29:56.960 --> 0:30:01.160
<v Speaker 2>a solution. My gut feeling is I think the best

0:30:01.160 --> 0:30:04.360
<v Speaker 2>way to do the college application process would be similar

0:30:04.680 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 2>to how it was done for when my mom. Now

0:30:08.760 --> 0:30:11.440
<v Speaker 2>we are going way back when my mom was applying to schools,

0:30:11.720 --> 0:30:14.440
<v Speaker 2>which is you went and talked to somebody, You had

0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:17.840
<v Speaker 2>to sit down interview, it's half hour long. They looked

0:30:17.880 --> 0:30:20.240
<v Speaker 2>at your grades and it was you had that human

0:30:20.280 --> 0:30:25.400
<v Speaker 2>interaction and they had smart people determining, okay, are you

0:30:25.480 --> 0:30:29.080
<v Speaker 2>a product? Like you had great grades, but was your

0:30:29.120 --> 0:30:31.880
<v Speaker 2>degree of difficulty zero? You had tough grades, but were

0:30:31.920 --> 0:30:34.920
<v Speaker 2>you working jobs, helping with kids? Do you know doing

0:30:34.960 --> 0:30:40.000
<v Speaker 2>these things? It just strikes me as the moment our

0:30:40.160 --> 0:30:43.560
<v Speaker 2>young people get out into the real world, it already

0:30:43.600 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 2>has been stacked the haves and the have nots, and

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:51.800
<v Speaker 2>I have felt, honestly a little guilty, even though I

0:30:51.840 --> 0:30:57.480
<v Speaker 2>want nothing but what's best for my daughter. That she's

0:30:57.560 --> 0:31:01.840
<v Speaker 2>in the halves category, and and there are going to

0:31:01.920 --> 0:31:06.240
<v Speaker 2>be kids that maybe are just as good or better

0:31:06.360 --> 0:31:12.320
<v Speaker 2>applicants that are in the call that have nots category,

0:31:13.200 --> 0:31:17.960
<v Speaker 2>and their applications gonna look gonna pale in comparison. So again,

0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:21.680
<v Speaker 2>I think there are some parents listening or young people

0:31:21.680 --> 0:31:25.280
<v Speaker 2>that just went through it that are watching it that

0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.000
<v Speaker 2>understand and empathize with what I'm talking about. I know

0:31:28.120 --> 0:31:30.520
<v Speaker 2>this was this is not usually what we do on

0:31:30.560 --> 0:31:35.400
<v Speaker 2>this show, but it has been thirty some hours a

0:31:35.440 --> 0:31:41.200
<v Speaker 2>week for Diora for the last month, plus school plus

0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 2>play practice, plus everything else going on in her life,

0:31:47.120 --> 0:31:52.560
<v Speaker 2>and I just don't know how. You know, folks that

0:31:53.280 --> 0:31:55.760
<v Speaker 2>don't necessarily have the resources that she has do it

0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:59.880
<v Speaker 2>so nothing but you know, respect and admiration for them.

0:31:59.880 --> 0:32:01.480
<v Speaker 2>But there's gotta be a better way to do it.

0:32:01.520 --> 0:32:04.600
<v Speaker 2>And then for the if you do it all correctly,

0:32:05.240 --> 0:32:09.160
<v Speaker 2>that the big prize at the end is probably two

0:32:09.240 --> 0:32:12.640
<v Speaker 2>hundred thousand dollars a debt strikes me as pretty crazy.

0:32:13.360 --> 0:32:16.880
<v Speaker 2>And I again, I don't have the solution, but I

0:32:16.960 --> 0:32:19.760
<v Speaker 2>know the way we're doing it right now can't be

0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:21.800
<v Speaker 2>the best way possible. All right, back to the show.

0:32:21.800 --> 0:32:22.560
<v Speaker 2>What are we doing now?

0:32:22.600 --> 0:32:26.520
<v Speaker 4>Well spoken, we got MAVs nets. We get to watch

0:32:26.520 --> 0:32:28.479
<v Speaker 4>the other son, Luka Doncic's play tonight.

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:31.240
<v Speaker 2>By the way, you can ask you a question because

0:32:31.280 --> 0:32:34.800
<v Speaker 2>you text me because you bet Luca first basket and

0:32:34.840 --> 0:32:37.520
<v Speaker 2>you won it. Yep, and the text you sent me,

0:32:37.520 --> 0:32:40.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna try to look it up. You said your

0:32:40.480 --> 0:32:43.920
<v Speaker 2>other son, and I read that coming from you, and

0:32:43.960 --> 0:32:45.600
<v Speaker 2>I was like, you know, I've never asked Himan, say,

0:32:46.040 --> 0:32:48.360
<v Speaker 2>does it bother you that I call someone else my kid?

0:32:48.600 --> 0:32:50.400
<v Speaker 3>I think it's weird that you're just now asking me that.

0:32:51.160 --> 0:32:54.320
<v Speaker 2>But uh, okay, well listen, better late than never. Does

0:32:54.360 --> 0:32:55.000
<v Speaker 2>it bother you?

0:32:55.920 --> 0:32:56.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know?

0:32:57.280 --> 0:32:58.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh that means it does?

0:32:59.160 --> 0:33:01.120
<v Speaker 4>No, I don't think it's it's it's not a I

0:33:01.200 --> 0:33:03.160
<v Speaker 4>really don't take any offense to Luca doesn't know.

0:33:03.200 --> 0:33:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Your Okay, well, I mean I raised him, so let no, honestly,

0:33:10.400 --> 0:33:13.520
<v Speaker 2>if anybody, if anybody should know, if there were.

0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:15.440
<v Speaker 3>Like some guy that wasn't in the NBA that you

0:33:15.440 --> 0:33:16.840
<v Speaker 3>were calling your other son.

0:33:17.280 --> 0:33:19.600
<v Speaker 4>That would be like yeah, then it's like all right, okay,

0:33:19.680 --> 0:33:20.600
<v Speaker 4>all right, that's fair.

0:33:20.720 --> 0:33:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I get it. Uh if it were just like some

0:33:24.880 --> 0:33:28.600
<v Speaker 2>like aspiring sportscaster, I've like taken on her my wing

0:33:28.680 --> 0:33:30.640
<v Speaker 2>and I'm like, hey, here are my two sons that

0:33:30.680 --> 0:33:33.920
<v Speaker 2>would bother you. Okay, that's fair, you think because he's

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:37.800
<v Speaker 2>in the NBA and people don't believe that he's my actual,

0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:39.640
<v Speaker 2>large adult Slovenian son, I.

0:33:39.640 --> 0:33:41.120
<v Speaker 3>Don't think that it's that they don't believe it.

0:33:41.160 --> 0:33:43.600
<v Speaker 4>I just think it's like it's like me telling my

0:33:43.640 --> 0:33:46.160
<v Speaker 4>girlfriend that I have a crush on Beyonce or like

0:33:46.240 --> 0:33:46.680
<v Speaker 4>she's my.

0:33:47.000 --> 0:33:50.000
<v Speaker 2>I got you, Okay, you know, all right, I got you,

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 2>gonna do all right? Fair enough, alright, go ahead.

0:33:51.720 --> 0:33:54.320
<v Speaker 4>Luca has been a wrecking ball, putting up massive numbers

0:33:54.400 --> 0:33:57.720
<v Speaker 4>through these few through these first three games. Yeah, the

0:33:57.800 --> 0:34:00.560
<v Speaker 4>nets are in disarray and can't stop anything defend.

0:34:00.880 --> 0:34:03.000
<v Speaker 3>Is this the making of a fifty piece for Luca tonight?

0:34:03.960 --> 0:34:04.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

0:34:04.120 --> 0:34:08.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he's gonna score fifty. But last night

0:34:09.520 --> 0:34:14.560
<v Speaker 2>the total for Gianni's points pregame was thirty two and

0:34:14.560 --> 0:34:18.160
<v Speaker 2>a half, and I hammered the over it's my first

0:34:18.239 --> 0:34:23.080
<v Speaker 2>NBA bet of the year, and I and he had

0:34:23.160 --> 0:34:26.440
<v Speaker 2>nine in the first half and finished with forty three.

0:34:26.840 --> 0:34:30.040
<v Speaker 2>The Nets are on a back to back. I think

0:34:30.200 --> 0:34:32.839
<v Speaker 2>here's what I would say. I think Luca will have.

0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:35.560
<v Speaker 3>At least twenty eight I'm calling it right now.

0:34:35.600 --> 0:34:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Twenty eight field low. What I was gonna say is

0:34:38.239 --> 0:34:43.320
<v Speaker 2>fifty combined points rebounds exists, Okay, I think Luca has

0:34:44.160 --> 0:34:47.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty two, nine and thirteen.

0:34:48.560 --> 0:34:48.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:52.720
<v Speaker 2>That these hit and open shooters, and I think that. Listen.

0:34:52.800 --> 0:34:55.160
<v Speaker 2>I said the map has not been great, but I

0:34:55.200 --> 0:34:56.759
<v Speaker 2>said before the year, I thought they were going to

0:34:56.840 --> 0:34:59.879
<v Speaker 2>have the best offense in NBA history, and their pace

0:35:00.160 --> 0:35:03.120
<v Speaker 2>towards it, I think their offense is gonna be unstoppable.

0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:06.120
<v Speaker 2>We'll see how the Nets react to last night. I

0:35:06.160 --> 0:35:07.920
<v Speaker 2>know they thought they got an unfair whistle. And we

0:35:07.920 --> 0:35:09.239
<v Speaker 2>talked to the Nets at the beginning of the show.

0:35:09.360 --> 0:35:12.440
<v Speaker 2>We didn't talk about Steve Nash losing his mind, Steve

0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Nash going crazy on the rest. They really didn't like

0:35:14.920 --> 0:35:15.360
<v Speaker 2>the whistle.

0:35:15.600 --> 0:35:17.759
<v Speaker 3>I like Steve Nash getting ejected. Those shows a little

0:35:17.800 --> 0:35:18.160
<v Speaker 3>bit of fight.

0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Katie seemed to like it. Katie seemed to appreciate it.

0:35:20.480 --> 0:35:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Would have been nice if the Nets showed some fight afterwards,

0:35:22.840 --> 0:35:25.400
<v Speaker 2>but the show's you know, they can't be as the Nets.

0:35:25.480 --> 0:35:27.839
<v Speaker 2>They've done so much winning and they've accomplished so much,

0:35:28.000 --> 0:35:30.000
<v Speaker 2>it's hard for them to get up for these regular

0:35:30.040 --> 0:35:32.240
<v Speaker 2>season games. All right, what game are we playing?

0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:35.520
<v Speaker 3>We are playing Doctor right today. I don't have my stethoscope.

0:35:36.080 --> 0:35:38.439
<v Speaker 2>See they did send you a stethoscope, didn't they.

0:35:38.640 --> 0:35:40.880
<v Speaker 3>They did not send me a stethoscope. I was just

0:35:40.960 --> 0:35:41.839
<v Speaker 3>making a little joke.

0:35:41.960 --> 0:35:45.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm just it's just from the image. Gabe is convinced,

0:35:45.480 --> 0:35:46.000
<v Speaker 2>and I'm not.

0:35:46.080 --> 0:35:47.600
<v Speaker 3>And it's you that has the stuff on.

0:35:47.680 --> 0:35:50.880
<v Speaker 2>It's not even me, I know so, But Gabe is

0:35:50.920 --> 0:35:55.000
<v Speaker 2>convinced they did. Matt says they didn't. I think they did.

0:35:55.400 --> 0:35:57.960
<v Speaker 2>Your adamant that you've never worn that.

0:35:58.280 --> 0:36:01.239
<v Speaker 4>Ever, I feel like if there was, if there were

0:36:01.320 --> 0:36:03.879
<v Speaker 4>Doctor's equipment that was sent to me through Amazon, if

0:36:03.920 --> 0:36:06.120
<v Speaker 4>I opened it, there's no chance that I forget that.

0:36:06.160 --> 0:36:09.240
<v Speaker 4>I opened up a package and you're with doctor equipment

0:36:09.239 --> 0:36:09.480
<v Speaker 4>in it.

0:36:09.960 --> 0:36:15.040
<v Speaker 2>You're convinced, hold on that you've never on one of

0:36:15.080 --> 0:36:17.400
<v Speaker 2>the shows worn any Doctor stuff.

0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:20.880
<v Speaker 4>Okay, guys, our loyal listeners type in the chat, we

0:36:21.800 --> 0:36:22.040
<v Speaker 4>do it?

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:23.239
<v Speaker 3>Do it as a question aired all.

0:36:23.239 --> 0:36:28.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, yeah, yeah, so you're convinced that we can't find

0:36:28.960 --> 0:36:31.680
<v Speaker 2>footage of you wearing any doctor stuff.

0:36:32.400 --> 0:36:35.160
<v Speaker 4>I've had a gavel and a wig, okay, and a

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 4>whiteboard one time.

0:36:36.200 --> 0:36:39.120
<v Speaker 2>Demanse says he's one hundred percent all right, before the

0:36:39.200 --> 0:36:40.760
<v Speaker 2>end of the show, We're gonna get to the bottom

0:36:40.760 --> 0:36:42.600
<v Speaker 2>of this. We're gonna get to the bottom of it.

0:36:42.640 --> 0:36:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Gay's so crazy, Gabe, go ahead, Gabe jumping in our

0:36:48.360 --> 0:36:55.080
<v Speaker 2>boss Cara. Yeah, wow, really, Gables, Guys, you don't have

0:36:55.120 --> 0:36:58.600
<v Speaker 2>to go strolling through the old episode. Gabe was as

0:36:58.680 --> 0:36:59.880
<v Speaker 2>convinced as I.

0:36:59.719 --> 0:37:02.880
<v Speaker 3>Was, which is insane, Like, am I just like a liar?

0:37:03.080 --> 0:37:05.520
<v Speaker 3>Or no? I I brained that Fall.

0:37:05.719 --> 0:37:09.560
<v Speaker 2>I didn't think you were lying intentionally. I did think

0:37:09.600 --> 0:37:12.120
<v Speaker 2>you had forgotten, okay, that we had worn it once

0:37:12.400 --> 0:37:15.560
<v Speaker 2>months ago, and you had forgotten, That's what I thought.

0:37:15.640 --> 0:37:20.319
<v Speaker 2>But and gamed it as well. But Fall, and it's

0:37:20.320 --> 0:37:21.759
<v Speaker 2>the wig and the gavel, okay?

0:37:21.840 --> 0:37:22.160
<v Speaker 3>All right?

0:37:22.280 --> 0:37:24.359
<v Speaker 4>Next or so we are doing it again, doctor right

0:37:24.719 --> 0:37:28.239
<v Speaker 4>first patient doctor Wright Russell Wilson is showing signs of

0:37:28.239 --> 0:37:31.759
<v Speaker 4>clinical insanity on the Broncos flight to London, doing high

0:37:31.840 --> 0:37:34.480
<v Speaker 4>knees for four hours umping down the aisles while as

0:37:34.560 --> 0:37:38.720
<v Speaker 4>teammates were trying to sleep. If the Broncos lose, changes

0:37:38.760 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 4>have to be made. Doctor Wright, We're leaving coach Hacket

0:37:41.600 --> 0:37:43.640
<v Speaker 4>in London cure Russ's case of insanity.

0:37:44.160 --> 0:37:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, the absolutely no, it wouldn't. That's first of all,

0:37:48.480 --> 0:37:53.320
<v Speaker 2>there's no chance it would cure fixing Russ. No. I also,

0:37:54.280 --> 0:37:56.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to add a take here and then we'll

0:37:56.200 --> 0:37:59.360
<v Speaker 2>get back to Russ. I said they should consider firing

0:37:59.400 --> 0:38:04.640
<v Speaker 2>Hacket after week two. I absolutely would not fire him,

0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:06.480
<v Speaker 2>no matter what they do the rest of the year.

0:38:07.200 --> 0:38:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Here's why they Their only path next season. Their most

0:38:14.960 --> 0:38:18.800
<v Speaker 2>obvious path, I should say, is Sean Payton. Sean Payton,

0:38:18.920 --> 0:38:22.320
<v Speaker 2>hire him quarterback. Whisper did great things with Drew Brees.

0:38:23.200 --> 0:38:26.000
<v Speaker 2>Even when Drew Brees was old and cooked, he still

0:38:26.040 --> 0:38:30.960
<v Speaker 2>made it work. Russ and Drew Brees stylistically incredibly similar players,

0:38:30.960 --> 0:38:34.319
<v Speaker 2>same size, all of it. The reason I wouldn't fire

0:38:34.400 --> 0:38:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Hackett is you need, when you are trying to convince

0:38:38.520 --> 0:38:41.160
<v Speaker 2>Sean Payton to take that job, to be able to

0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:46.000
<v Speaker 2>say Russ is fine, the coach was awful. You need

0:38:46.080 --> 0:38:50.320
<v Speaker 2>a fall guy. If you fire Hackett and then Russ

0:38:50.400 --> 0:38:53.799
<v Speaker 2>is still terrible. How does any good coach want that

0:38:54.040 --> 0:38:56.200
<v Speaker 2>job when you are tied to Russ for the next

0:38:56.239 --> 0:38:59.720
<v Speaker 2>six years. So I wouldn't fire Hackett now on Russ.

0:39:01.360 --> 0:39:07.440
<v Speaker 2>I it's one thing to do this on the airplane.

0:39:08.920 --> 0:39:11.319
<v Speaker 2>It is another thing entirely. Do you know how the

0:39:11.360 --> 0:39:16.919
<v Speaker 2>media found out? Demonse? His teammates Russ told them, Oh yeah,

0:39:17.680 --> 0:39:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Russ at the press conference told them, yeah, it the lack.

0:39:23.160 --> 0:39:28.520
<v Speaker 2>So here's the thing in the NFL, at the quarterback position.

0:39:29.560 --> 0:39:33.160
<v Speaker 2>There are two ways to be a leader, and hopefully

0:39:33.280 --> 0:39:35.000
<v Speaker 2>you have both of them, but you've got to have

0:39:35.040 --> 0:39:37.239
<v Speaker 2>at least one of them. Right, by the way, are

0:39:37.239 --> 0:39:37.720
<v Speaker 2>you okay?

0:39:38.120 --> 0:39:41.880
<v Speaker 5>My neck is like all of a sudden, All of

0:39:41.920 --> 0:39:45.880
<v Speaker 5>a sudden, doctor, You need actual doctor, right, Demanse is

0:39:45.960 --> 0:39:48.520
<v Speaker 5>like net just stiffened up mid show?

0:39:49.120 --> 0:39:49.800
<v Speaker 2>No, I can see it.

0:39:50.080 --> 0:39:50.919
<v Speaker 3>H all right.

0:39:51.560 --> 0:39:52.560
<v Speaker 2>There's two ways to.

0:39:52.560 --> 0:39:54.200
<v Speaker 3>Be a leader.

0:39:55.880 --> 0:40:00.400
<v Speaker 2>Be such a great player, people have no choice but

0:40:00.480 --> 0:40:05.200
<v Speaker 2>to follow. Peyton Manning is an example. Be so charismatic

0:40:05.280 --> 0:40:10.960
<v Speaker 2>or cool. People want to follow Joe Burrow, Cam Newton. Yeah,

0:40:11.160 --> 0:40:16.919
<v Speaker 2>those are examples. The best ones are both for a time.

0:40:17.040 --> 0:40:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Tom Brady was that, Patrick ma Holmes is that right now?

0:40:21.880 --> 0:40:25.640
<v Speaker 2>Lamar has been that at various times in his career.

0:40:26.960 --> 0:40:34.160
<v Speaker 2>The worst ones are neither Kyler, Murray, yeah, big Ben

0:40:34.280 --> 0:40:37.879
<v Speaker 2>his last few years. Big Ben was never super charisma guy,

0:40:37.920 --> 0:40:40.560
<v Speaker 2>but he was awesome. Then he started stinking and he

0:40:40.680 --> 0:40:42.480
<v Speaker 2>still was not charisma leader.

0:40:42.320 --> 0:40:42.879
<v Speaker 3>Cool guy.

0:40:43.360 --> 0:40:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Nobody want to follow him, Jay Cutler his whole career.

0:40:48.120 --> 0:40:53.480
<v Speaker 2>Russ was always corny, but he used to be great.

0:40:54.640 --> 0:40:58.919
<v Speaker 2>Now he's somehow more corny and terrible. No one's gonna

0:40:58.920 --> 0:41:02.720
<v Speaker 2>follow that, and it's a big problem. It's a big

0:41:03.000 --> 0:41:05.120
<v Speaker 2>do I think Russ is statistics.

0:41:04.600 --> 0:41:07.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean backed him up on Twitter, Yeah, because.

0:41:07.280 --> 0:41:10.239
<v Speaker 2>They got no choice. But this is just a you know,

0:41:11.120 --> 0:41:13.120
<v Speaker 2>fruit of the same poisonous tree. Is You remember the

0:41:13.200 --> 0:41:15.839
<v Speaker 2>video of him early in the year demanding guys who

0:41:15.840 --> 0:41:19.200
<v Speaker 2>aren't playing Yello Runner pass while they're watching the game.

0:41:19.400 --> 0:41:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you didn't see it. It's so bad, Uh. It's

0:41:22.680 --> 0:41:26.440
<v Speaker 2>when the Broncos are on defense. He wanted everyone on

0:41:26.480 --> 0:41:31.760
<v Speaker 2>the sideline to shout exactly right, and when they weren't

0:41:31.760 --> 0:41:35.839
<v Speaker 2>doing it, he started chastising them. And it's just these

0:41:36.000 --> 0:41:39.920
<v Speaker 2>these are things like you just can't have and if

0:41:39.920 --> 0:41:42.239
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna do that, you've got to be great. And

0:41:42.239 --> 0:41:44.520
<v Speaker 2>it said he's been terrible and the whole thing's a

0:41:44.600 --> 0:41:46.239
<v Speaker 2>disaster there and there's no fixing it.

0:41:46.320 --> 0:41:49.000
<v Speaker 4>Next, all right, doctor, Right, second case we have here,

0:41:49.320 --> 0:41:53.080
<v Speaker 4>bad teams taking for Victor Winny win by Nyama have

0:41:53.160 --> 0:41:56.160
<v Speaker 4>a bad case of the wins. If we don't administer

0:41:56.200 --> 0:42:00.359
<v Speaker 4>an injection of losses, the lottery odds will rapidly decrease. Right,

0:42:00.600 --> 0:42:03.120
<v Speaker 4>what do you advise the Blazers, Spurs and Jazz do

0:42:03.239 --> 0:42:04.279
<v Speaker 4>to get back off track?

0:42:05.160 --> 0:42:08.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, listen, I think the Blazers are actually gonna try

0:42:08.800 --> 0:42:10.600
<v Speaker 2>to be good. I think the four and zero with

0:42:10.719 --> 0:42:13.760
<v Speaker 2>Dame playing that level, they're not tanking. The idea behind

0:42:13.800 --> 0:42:18.160
<v Speaker 2>them tanking was if Dame still looks compromised from the

0:42:18.160 --> 0:42:23.879
<v Speaker 2>injury had last year, the Blazers are not gonna tank. Pissed, No,

0:42:24.040 --> 0:42:26.320
<v Speaker 2>he'd be upsetting, but he was, you know, he was

0:42:26.400 --> 0:42:30.160
<v Speaker 2>hurt last year, and you're they're not gonna tank. The

0:42:30.280 --> 0:42:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Jazz might need to trade for us Conley and Jordan

0:42:35.280 --> 0:42:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Clarkson for us, And because the Jazz might have accidentally

0:42:40.719 --> 0:42:44.600
<v Speaker 2>built a decent roster, the Spurs don't have to do

0:42:44.640 --> 0:42:47.759
<v Speaker 2>anything differently. They're gonna stop winning. The Spurs are gonna

0:42:47.840 --> 0:42:50.759
<v Speaker 2>end up being terrible. They they that there. I'm not them.

0:42:50.800 --> 0:42:54.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm not worried about. The Jazz are more competent than

0:42:54.560 --> 0:42:57.360
<v Speaker 2>they wanted to be, and they got all those players

0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:02.040
<v Speaker 2>from the Rudy Gobert deal, and they're realizing what Minnesota's realizing,

0:43:02.040 --> 0:43:05.200
<v Speaker 2>which is Rudy Gobert's fools gold. So losing him doesn't

0:43:05.200 --> 0:43:07.719
<v Speaker 2>even hurt you that much, and gaining him in Minnesota

0:43:07.719 --> 0:43:10.319
<v Speaker 2>didn't help you that much. So the Spurs are going

0:43:10.360 --> 0:43:12.600
<v Speaker 2>to tank, the Jazz might need to make a move,

0:43:12.640 --> 0:43:14.960
<v Speaker 2>and the Blazers don't want to tank next all right,

0:43:14.960 --> 0:43:15.440
<v Speaker 2>doctor right?

0:43:15.560 --> 0:43:19.320
<v Speaker 4>The seventy six ers are showing signs of showing signs

0:43:19.320 --> 0:43:21.880
<v Speaker 4>of a team chemistry in balance. They started the season

0:43:21.880 --> 0:43:24.239
<v Speaker 4>off aller and three, then they finally beat the Pacer.

0:43:24.040 --> 0:43:25.799
<v Speaker 2>And then they lost again last night one and four.

0:43:25.880 --> 0:43:28.000
<v Speaker 2>We'll start to a season for them in five or

0:43:28.040 --> 0:43:28.880
<v Speaker 2>six years.

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:32.160
<v Speaker 4>Yep, doctor right. What is the issue that means? I'm sorry,

0:43:32.200 --> 0:43:34.960
<v Speaker 4>it's the issue the patients or the doctor. So the

0:43:35.040 --> 0:43:40.040
<v Speaker 4>doctor meaning doctor the rivers right now, it's a little

0:43:40.040 --> 0:43:41.960
<v Speaker 4>bit of both. This is the team I picked to

0:43:42.000 --> 0:43:44.880
<v Speaker 4>win the East.

0:43:43.800 --> 0:43:51.160
<v Speaker 2>And what is concerning for them is their harden is

0:43:51.640 --> 0:43:54.279
<v Speaker 2>fully healed from that hamstring injury finally.

0:43:54.640 --> 0:43:56.120
<v Speaker 3>And it is better than what he seemed to be.

0:43:56.160 --> 0:44:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Last year, way better. And they still stink. So I'm

0:44:01.000 --> 0:44:05.560
<v Speaker 2>going to give the Sixers some time, but Darryl won't

0:44:05.600 --> 0:44:09.680
<v Speaker 2>stand pat and they have moves they can make, whether

0:44:09.719 --> 0:44:14.560
<v Speaker 2>that's trading players or firing Doc. A lot of people

0:44:14.560 --> 0:44:18.120
<v Speaker 2>thought they would fire Doc two years ago or last year.

0:44:18.200 --> 0:44:20.359
<v Speaker 2>They didn't. A lot of people thought they were going

0:44:20.400 --> 0:44:23.520
<v Speaker 2>to fire Doc last year. They did not. They've got

0:44:23.520 --> 0:44:26.280
<v Speaker 2>to turn this around quickly because the Celtics are playing

0:44:26.280 --> 0:44:29.240
<v Speaker 2>great and the Bucks are playing great. Now the Nets

0:44:29.239 --> 0:44:32.319
<v Speaker 2>are in just as much disarray. Celtics and Bucks are

0:44:32.360 --> 0:44:34.719
<v Speaker 2>for real. The Sixers need to get together, all right,

0:44:34.800 --> 0:44:35.640
<v Speaker 2>last all right?

0:44:35.680 --> 0:44:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Doctor? Right?

0:44:36.200 --> 0:44:38.760
<v Speaker 4>The forty nine ers seem to be in perfect physical health,

0:44:39.200 --> 0:44:42.240
<v Speaker 4>with all pros and first rounders at every key offensive position.

0:44:42.719 --> 0:44:45.200
<v Speaker 4>You would think that they would have at least at

0:44:45.280 --> 0:44:47.920
<v Speaker 4>least been competitive with the Chiefs. Instead, they are now

0:44:48.000 --> 0:44:49.759
<v Speaker 4>three and four and we can't figure out what the

0:44:49.760 --> 0:44:50.880
<v Speaker 4>problem is with this patient.

0:44:51.000 --> 0:44:53.759
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, doctor Wright, what is your diagnosis for the forty

0:44:53.840 --> 0:44:54.160
<v Speaker 3>nine ers.

0:44:54.160 --> 0:44:56.480
<v Speaker 2>I think they're gonna be just fine. I think that

0:44:57.160 --> 0:45:00.640
<v Speaker 2>keep doing what you're doing. You're already getting healthier. The

0:45:00.640 --> 0:45:03.759
<v Speaker 2>Falcons loss was due to the fact that seven of

0:45:03.800 --> 0:45:06.520
<v Speaker 2>your defensive starters are out. The Chiefs loss was due

0:45:06.560 --> 0:45:11.320
<v Speaker 2>to the fact that Mahomes played a perfect football game

0:45:11.640 --> 0:45:15.640
<v Speaker 2>and Jimmy G kneecaptia on the one yard line. I mean,

0:45:15.719 --> 0:45:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy G. Is an unbelievable stat. In the last thirty

0:45:20.239 --> 0:45:24.120
<v Speaker 2>years in the NFL, there have been twenty eight instances,

0:45:24.160 --> 0:45:27.000
<v Speaker 2>so just under one a year of a quarterback throwing

0:45:27.040 --> 0:45:29.960
<v Speaker 2>a pick, losing a fumble and getting safetyed in the

0:45:30.000 --> 0:45:33.120
<v Speaker 2>same game. Twenty eight times in thirty years it's happened.

0:45:33.560 --> 0:45:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Two of those are Jimmy G. This month, that's the

0:45:37.600 --> 0:45:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Broncos game. He did it, and then this Chiefs game,

0:45:40.520 --> 0:45:43.640
<v Speaker 2>he did it. Listen, they are the best thing they've

0:45:43.680 --> 0:45:46.319
<v Speaker 2>gone for them is the division that they're in, and

0:45:46.520 --> 0:45:51.359
<v Speaker 2>that defense is top three defense in the league. A

0:45:51.400 --> 0:45:53.799
<v Speaker 2>first team All Pro left tackle and a first round

0:45:53.840 --> 0:45:56.399
<v Speaker 2>pick a right tackle. A first team All Pro wide

0:45:56.440 --> 0:45:58.600
<v Speaker 2>receiver in debo and a first round pick in the

0:45:58.600 --> 0:46:01.879
<v Speaker 2>other wide receiver Brandon Ayuk, a first team All Pro

0:46:01.920 --> 0:46:04.239
<v Speaker 2>at tight end and a first team All Pro at

0:46:04.320 --> 0:46:06.719
<v Speaker 2>running back. Now with McCaffrey, I think the Niners are

0:46:06.719 --> 0:46:10.640
<v Speaker 2>an incredibly dangerous team. They're obviously limited quarterback. This is

0:46:10.680 --> 0:46:13.360
<v Speaker 2>why I thought it was so crazy. The whole world,

0:46:13.920 --> 0:46:17.400
<v Speaker 2>whole sports world, was like, oh, they're better now that

0:46:17.480 --> 0:46:19.600
<v Speaker 2>Trey Lance is hurt. No, they're not. They have a

0:46:19.640 --> 0:46:23.120
<v Speaker 2>clear ceiling with Jimmy g at quarterback. But that ceiling

0:46:23.200 --> 0:46:25.520
<v Speaker 2>is good enough because of the defense and the skill,

0:46:25.520 --> 0:46:28.200
<v Speaker 2>guys still be a super dangerous team. I wouldn't change

0:46:28.200 --> 0:46:30.759
<v Speaker 2>anything in San Francisco except for the quarterback. But you

0:46:30.760 --> 0:46:33.399
<v Speaker 2>can't change the quarterback right now. Just gotta wait. All right,

0:46:34.280 --> 0:46:37.400
<v Speaker 2>we will answer your questions live in the chat and

0:46:37.560 --> 0:46:41.400
<v Speaker 2>debut our book club. That's all next sixty second break

0:46:41.400 --> 0:46:49.160
<v Speaker 2>What's Right? Live on YouTube? All right, welcome back in

0:46:49.200 --> 0:46:53.280
<v Speaker 2>episode eighty seven, What's Right? Nick Ray. So we decided

0:46:53.280 --> 0:46:55.680
<v Speaker 2>that we're gonna do a monthly book club on this show.

0:46:56.080 --> 0:46:58.760
<v Speaker 2>So this is gonna be our book for the month

0:46:58.800 --> 0:47:01.840
<v Speaker 2>of December eight or a month of November. Pardon me,

0:47:02.160 --> 0:47:06.600
<v Speaker 2>eh Gombres A little history of the world. And I realized,

0:47:06.600 --> 0:47:08.720
<v Speaker 2>because I've never done a book club, that we're supposed

0:47:08.760 --> 0:47:10.440
<v Speaker 2>to be like so up to the next week, we'll

0:47:10.440 --> 0:47:12.200
<v Speaker 2>get to page whatever. I didn't do that.

0:47:12.760 --> 0:47:14.680
<v Speaker 3>So here's you didn't do that.

0:47:14.760 --> 0:47:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Where are you at in it?

0:47:16.040 --> 0:47:16.760
<v Speaker 3>Page fifteen?

0:47:17.800 --> 0:47:19.479
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I mean that's not great.

0:47:19.600 --> 0:47:21.040
<v Speaker 3>That's not say five chapters.

0:47:21.360 --> 0:47:23.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, the chapters like three pages long in this book, buddy,

0:47:24.080 --> 0:47:27.359
<v Speaker 2>what I said? Okay, you're right. So the book is

0:47:27.480 --> 0:47:31.000
<v Speaker 2>two hundred and seventy pages. So by this time next week,

0:47:31.400 --> 0:47:37.960
<v Speaker 2>let's all plan to be through chapter up to chapter fourteen,

0:47:38.520 --> 0:47:41.439
<v Speaker 2>which starts on page eighty. So let's so, I'm gonna

0:47:41.480 --> 0:47:44.080
<v Speaker 2>give people who are maybe ambivalent on joining the book

0:47:44.080 --> 0:47:47.440
<v Speaker 2>club a little taste of where of the first few chapters.

0:47:47.960 --> 0:47:51.920
<v Speaker 2>So it is literally just a chronological history of the

0:47:51.960 --> 0:47:57.080
<v Speaker 2>world in bite sized fashion. So the second chapter he

0:47:57.239 --> 0:48:02.200
<v Speaker 2>discusses that you've got to think about prehistory before history,

0:48:02.440 --> 0:48:04.319
<v Speaker 2>and some of the lines are I'm gonna read you

0:48:04.360 --> 0:48:06.879
<v Speaker 2>a few. Isn't it an amazing thought that one day

0:48:06.880 --> 0:48:09.839
<v Speaker 2>a prehistoric man or woman must have realized that meat

0:48:09.880 --> 0:48:12.080
<v Speaker 2>from wild animals was easier to chew if it was

0:48:12.160 --> 0:48:14.640
<v Speaker 2>first held over a fire and roasted, And that one

0:48:14.719 --> 0:48:17.840
<v Speaker 2>day someone actually discovered how to make fire. Do you

0:48:17.880 --> 0:48:21.840
<v Speaker 2>realize what that actually means? Then he goes on tools

0:48:21.960 --> 0:48:24.440
<v Speaker 2>must have been invented by someone too, and then he

0:48:24.480 --> 0:48:27.280
<v Speaker 2>goes on, do you know what else the caveman invented?

0:48:27.760 --> 0:48:31.439
<v Speaker 2>They invented talking, I mean having real conversations with each

0:48:31.440 --> 0:48:35.920
<v Speaker 2>other using words. They invented something else that was wonderful too, pictures.

0:48:36.280 --> 0:48:39.040
<v Speaker 2>So his point is, we don't think about this, but

0:48:39.120 --> 0:48:42.960
<v Speaker 2>the greatest inventors ever were the very first people. Because

0:48:43.000 --> 0:48:44.879
<v Speaker 2>and he ends it with so just once in a while,

0:48:44.880 --> 0:48:47.680
<v Speaker 2>while we're talking or eating some bread, using tools, or

0:48:47.719 --> 0:48:50.359
<v Speaker 2>warming ourselves by the fire, we shuld remember those early

0:48:50.400 --> 0:48:52.960
<v Speaker 2>people with gratitude, for they were the greatest inventors of

0:48:52.960 --> 0:48:56.839
<v Speaker 2>all time. And then he gets right into the first civilization,

0:48:57.280 --> 0:49:00.640
<v Speaker 2>the Egyptians, and he writes about King I don't know

0:49:00.680 --> 0:49:04.399
<v Speaker 2>if it's Chiops or Chops who. This is twenty five

0:49:04.480 --> 0:49:07.839
<v Speaker 2>hundred BC, so this is forty five hundred years ago,

0:49:08.840 --> 0:49:12.760
<v Speaker 2>and he wanted a great tomb, and that great tomb

0:49:13.680 --> 0:49:17.280
<v Speaker 2>is the great Pyramid. The pyramid that the great Pyramid

0:49:17.360 --> 0:49:20.520
<v Speaker 2>of Chops, the one that you see standing to this day,

0:49:21.080 --> 0:49:25.160
<v Speaker 2>was built by the first true civilization forty five hundred

0:49:25.480 --> 0:49:28.640
<v Speaker 2>years ago. Also that he talks about how in the

0:49:28.680 --> 0:49:32.640
<v Speaker 2>Egyptian religion, certain animals were sacred cats, which is why

0:49:33.000 --> 0:49:36.000
<v Speaker 2>they built the sphinx, the pyramid that has the cat

0:49:36.080 --> 0:49:40.280
<v Speaker 2>face on the top, and I mean this is.

0:49:40.239 --> 0:49:42.319
<v Speaker 4>There's also a little section in there where they said,

0:49:42.360 --> 0:49:44.160
<v Speaker 4>like the cavemen and the guys that used to draw

0:49:44.200 --> 0:49:47.080
<v Speaker 4>in the caves, they think that there was a chance

0:49:47.120 --> 0:49:49.040
<v Speaker 4>that they would draw the things on the cave to

0:49:49.040 --> 0:49:51.239
<v Speaker 4>make them appear, because like, what reason did they have

0:49:51.360 --> 0:49:51.759
<v Speaker 4>to do that.

0:49:51.800 --> 0:49:52.960
<v Speaker 3>They thought if they drew.

0:49:52.760 --> 0:49:55.719
<v Speaker 4>It, it would do magic, it would show up spawn a cat, yeah,

0:49:55.880 --> 0:49:56.919
<v Speaker 4>or whatever.

0:49:56.800 --> 0:49:58.520
<v Speaker 2>Whatever they were hunting for or whatever.

0:49:58.600 --> 0:49:59.720
<v Speaker 3>I found that really interesting.

0:50:00.440 --> 0:50:03.960
<v Speaker 2>And then so then the next chapter is about Mesopotamia,

0:50:04.440 --> 0:50:07.600
<v Speaker 2>and this is really interesting, says unlike Egypt, Mesopotamia was

0:50:07.680 --> 0:50:10.800
<v Speaker 2>ruled by just one king, and not did any single

0:50:11.239 --> 0:50:16.680
<v Speaker 2>empire survive long within the frontiers of Mesopotamia. But one

0:50:16.719 --> 0:50:19.959
<v Speaker 2>of those first kings was Hamarabi, who made the first

0:50:20.000 --> 0:50:22.600
<v Speaker 2>ever code of laws. That's where eye for an Eye

0:50:22.640 --> 0:50:28.640
<v Speaker 2>comes from the and that was seventeen hundred BC, so

0:50:28.680 --> 0:50:32.040
<v Speaker 2>we're talking nearly four thousand years ago. But this was

0:50:32.080 --> 0:50:34.560
<v Speaker 2>the part of the Mesopotamia chapter that I found the

0:50:34.560 --> 0:50:37.000
<v Speaker 2>most interesting. So I'm going to read you a section

0:50:37.040 --> 0:50:40.040
<v Speaker 2>from it quickly. In those days, people thought the earth

0:50:40.120 --> 0:50:42.040
<v Speaker 2>was a flat disk, and the sky was sort of

0:50:42.160 --> 0:50:45.080
<v Speaker 2>hollow sphere cupped over the Earth that turned over it

0:50:45.080 --> 0:50:47.600
<v Speaker 2>once a day. So it must have seemed miraculous to

0:50:47.640 --> 0:50:49.800
<v Speaker 2>them that, although most of the stars stayed fixed to

0:50:49.840 --> 0:50:53.000
<v Speaker 2>the heavens, some seemed as it were, as it were,

0:50:53.360 --> 0:50:56.880
<v Speaker 2>loosely fastened and able to move about. Today we know

0:50:57.360 --> 0:50:59.640
<v Speaker 2>that those stars that are close to us, and that

0:50:59.680 --> 0:51:01.640
<v Speaker 2>they herm with the Earth around the Sun, are not

0:51:01.719 --> 0:51:05.200
<v Speaker 2>stars at all. They are called planets. You can see

0:51:06.280 --> 0:51:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Mars and Jupiter, you can see it. But the ancient

0:51:09.440 --> 0:51:12.799
<v Speaker 2>Babylonians and Assyrians couldn't know that, and they thought some

0:51:12.920 --> 0:51:16.000
<v Speaker 2>strange magic must lie behind it. They gave a name

0:51:16.080 --> 0:51:19.719
<v Speaker 2>to each wandering star and observed them constantly, convinced they

0:51:19.719 --> 0:51:23.399
<v Speaker 2>were powerful beings whose position to influenced the destinies of men,

0:51:23.719 --> 0:51:25.640
<v Speaker 2>and that by studying them they'd be able to predict

0:51:25.640 --> 0:51:28.160
<v Speaker 2>the future. The belief in the stars has a name,

0:51:28.719 --> 0:51:34.240
<v Speaker 2>a Greek name astrology, so people still believe in that today.

0:51:34.760 --> 0:51:37.359
<v Speaker 2>Some planets were believed to be this is the amazing part,

0:51:37.680 --> 0:51:41.839
<v Speaker 2>believed to bring good luck other's misfortune. Mars meant war,

0:51:42.239 --> 0:51:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Venus meant love. To each of the five planets known

0:51:46.320 --> 0:51:47.839
<v Speaker 2>they dedicated a day.

0:51:48.080 --> 0:51:50.040
<v Speaker 3>What about is there anything about mercury in there?

0:51:50.320 --> 0:51:52.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm not in here, but yes there would be something.

0:51:53.280 --> 0:51:55.399
<v Speaker 2>But listen to this part. To each of the five

0:51:55.480 --> 0:51:58.480
<v Speaker 2>planets known to them, they dedicated a day, and with

0:51:58.600 --> 0:52:03.480
<v Speaker 2>the Sun and the moon, that made seven days. That

0:52:03.640 --> 0:52:08.080
<v Speaker 2>is the origin of our seven day week. In English,

0:52:08.120 --> 0:52:15.880
<v Speaker 2>we still call Saturn day, Saturday, Sunday, Sunday, the Moon's

0:52:15.960 --> 0:52:20.600
<v Speaker 2>day Monday, but the other named after different gods. In

0:52:20.680 --> 0:52:23.640
<v Speaker 2>other languages such as French or Italian, most of the

0:52:23.760 --> 0:52:27.040
<v Speaker 2>days of the week still belong to the planets that

0:52:27.120 --> 0:52:31.960
<v Speaker 2>the Babylonians nearly four thousand years ago named. So to

0:52:32.040 --> 0:52:36.120
<v Speaker 2>this day we call Saturday Saturday because it was named

0:52:36.120 --> 0:52:39.640
<v Speaker 2>after Saturn, and Sunday Sunday because it was named after

0:52:39.680 --> 0:52:42.880
<v Speaker 2>the Sun. And Monday Moonday, well Monday because it was

0:52:42.920 --> 0:52:49.120
<v Speaker 2>named after the moon. That's amazing. That's amazing. Then there

0:52:49.160 --> 0:52:52.480
<v Speaker 2>is a chapter that I'm gonna you know. Our producers

0:52:52.480 --> 0:52:57.200
<v Speaker 2>asked me today if I wanted to talk about Donda

0:52:57.280 --> 0:53:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Sports and Aaron Donald and Jayalen Brown, leaving that after

0:53:01.760 --> 0:53:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Kanye's just insane tour of hatred continues unending, and I said,

0:53:08.320 --> 0:53:09.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't really want to. We got other stuff. I

0:53:09.880 --> 0:53:11.279
<v Speaker 2>knew I was gonna do the college thing, and I

0:53:11.320 --> 0:53:14.040
<v Speaker 2>was gonna do this. You keep mostly the sports. But

0:53:14.960 --> 0:53:17.400
<v Speaker 2>I do want to say this so I know a

0:53:17.400 --> 0:53:19.359
<v Speaker 2>lot of people think I'm Jewish because of my nose.

0:53:19.440 --> 0:53:22.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm not Jewish. My grandfather was. However, I was raised

0:53:22.800 --> 0:53:26.319
<v Speaker 2>Roman Catholic, and now I'm not really religious person. But

0:53:26.400 --> 0:53:31.000
<v Speaker 2>the fifth chapter is about the origin of the Jewish people,

0:53:31.200 --> 0:53:32.920
<v Speaker 2>who were kind of the first people to believe in

0:53:33.000 --> 0:53:35.120
<v Speaker 2>one God and one God only instead of a bunch

0:53:35.120 --> 0:53:41.760
<v Speaker 2>of gods. And it talks about all the different disasters

0:53:42.440 --> 0:53:48.920
<v Speaker 2>and the persecution of them for you know, thousands of years.

0:53:49.600 --> 0:53:55.200
<v Speaker 2>And is that going through all of that made a

0:53:55.239 --> 0:53:58.040
<v Speaker 2>lot of the Jewish people of that time even more devout.

0:53:58.680 --> 0:54:04.239
<v Speaker 2>And then I found this super interesting. So the Persians

0:54:05.800 --> 0:54:09.480
<v Speaker 2>eventually kind of ran rough shot over everybody, and when

0:54:09.520 --> 0:54:16.200
<v Speaker 2>they got to, let me get this right, so King

0:54:16.280 --> 0:54:24.719
<v Speaker 2>Nebuchadnezzar of the Persians went to Egypt, and oh, so

0:54:24.800 --> 0:54:26.320
<v Speaker 2>let me get this right. I apologize. I want to

0:54:26.360 --> 0:54:31.760
<v Speaker 2>read this directly. The mighty Babylonian warrior King nebukad Neezer,

0:54:31.840 --> 0:54:34.160
<v Speaker 2>on his way to war with the Egyptians. He marched

0:54:34.160 --> 0:54:37.399
<v Speaker 2>through the Promised Land, where he destroyed Jerusalem in five

0:54:37.400 --> 0:54:41.200
<v Speaker 2>eighty six PC, put out the eyes of King Zedekiah,

0:54:41.280 --> 0:54:45.480
<v Speaker 2>and led the Jews in captivity to Babylon. They remained

0:54:45.480 --> 0:54:51.360
<v Speaker 2>there for fifty years until the Babylonian Empire was destroyed

0:54:51.360 --> 0:54:54.319
<v Speaker 2>by the Persians in five point thirty eight BC, and

0:54:54.400 --> 0:54:57.759
<v Speaker 2>the Persians freed them that tiny remnant of people that

0:54:57.880 --> 0:55:00.560
<v Speaker 2>called itself chosen Poor night and Day or the sacred

0:55:00.600 --> 0:55:03.600
<v Speaker 2>songs and scriptures, as they tried to understand why the

0:55:03.600 --> 0:55:06.000
<v Speaker 2>One and Only God allowed is people to suffer. There's

0:55:06.040 --> 0:55:09.200
<v Speaker 2>then a chapter about who invented reading, and it's the

0:55:09.200 --> 0:55:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Phoenicians because they were they were seafarers and they needed

0:55:14.360 --> 0:55:17.120
<v Speaker 2>to be able to sell their goods. And then, and

0:55:17.239 --> 0:55:20.480
<v Speaker 2>this part is really unbelievable, we get to and we're

0:55:20.480 --> 0:55:24.279
<v Speaker 2>only at page thirty the story of the Persians and

0:55:24.320 --> 0:55:28.400
<v Speaker 2>the Greeks, which you're like, oh, I actually knew some

0:55:28.480 --> 0:55:32.440
<v Speaker 2>of this from the movie three hundred and it's and

0:55:32.680 --> 0:55:36.560
<v Speaker 2>it the numbers obviously three hundreds of fictional depiction, but

0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:40.400
<v Speaker 2>it's really fascinating. That's only thirty pages in, so we

0:55:40.440 --> 0:55:42.520
<v Speaker 2>will get to page eighty next week, I will have

0:55:42.560 --> 0:55:45.040
<v Speaker 2>a better idea. I'm gonna listen to someone else's book

0:55:45.040 --> 0:55:46.680
<v Speaker 2>club because I don't know if you could tell from this,

0:55:46.760 --> 0:55:48.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't really know what I'm doing on how we're

0:55:48.719 --> 0:55:51.360
<v Speaker 2>supposed to do a book club. But the first thirteen

0:55:51.400 --> 0:55:54.880
<v Speaker 2>Patricks chapters get us to page eighty. I recommend everyone

0:55:55.000 --> 0:55:57.440
<v Speaker 2>read it. We'll do it more efficiently next week. All right,

0:55:57.440 --> 0:56:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Demont's time now for some questions. Oh right, you ready?

0:56:02.320 --> 0:56:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Or did your doc crash again? No?

0:56:04.320 --> 0:56:07.200
<v Speaker 3>It changed up? Okay cmrs three six five?

0:56:07.280 --> 0:56:11.000
<v Speaker 2>There a yes, Mr three six five, Okay, go ahead.

0:56:12.200 --> 0:56:16.719
<v Speaker 4>Uh oh no, it's yeah, just that what there's absolutely

0:56:16.760 --> 0:56:18.799
<v Speaker 4>no way Demons is interested in any of this.

0:56:18.880 --> 0:56:19.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, we don't know that.

0:56:20.080 --> 0:56:20.520
<v Speaker 3>You might be.

0:56:20.719 --> 0:56:22.520
<v Speaker 2>You might be. Let's just see how it goes.

0:56:22.680 --> 0:56:25.480
<v Speaker 4>It's funny, he says, we don't know that as if

0:56:25.520 --> 0:56:26.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm not Demonse.

0:56:27.480 --> 0:56:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, fair enough, go ahead. What what what else we

0:56:30.120 --> 0:56:33.080
<v Speaker 2>book you? You don't catch up?

0:56:33.440 --> 0:56:34.680
<v Speaker 3>And I actually had some input.

0:56:35.320 --> 0:56:38.640
<v Speaker 4>Quc beats co ass What does Demonse have to do

0:56:38.719 --> 0:56:41.080
<v Speaker 4>to catch and surpass Luca in your heart stops?

0:56:41.320 --> 0:56:43.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm not I'm you know what. That would be a

0:56:43.600 --> 0:56:45.720
<v Speaker 2>good start. That would be a good start next.

0:56:46.360 --> 0:56:51.560
<v Speaker 4>Uh, we got Justin pender ass. Who gets traded first?

0:56:51.680 --> 0:56:55.120
<v Speaker 4>Russell Westbrook, Ben Simmons or Damian Lillard. It's definitely, it's

0:56:55.160 --> 0:56:55.960
<v Speaker 4>definitely Ross.

0:56:56.120 --> 0:56:59.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Dame's not gonna get traded, right and Simmons is

0:56:59.280 --> 0:57:01.360
<v Speaker 2>gonna be very very very difficult to trade because he

0:57:01.400 --> 0:57:03.640
<v Speaker 2>has so much more long on his contract just three

0:57:03.680 --> 0:57:07.520
<v Speaker 2>more years after this copy. Russ is an inspiring deal.

0:57:08.040 --> 0:57:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Somebody will want Russ in the picks. I don't know

0:57:09.920 --> 0:57:13.080
<v Speaker 2>that anyone's going to sign up for Ben in that contract.

0:57:13.080 --> 0:57:14.319
<v Speaker 2>All right, next, all right?

0:57:14.480 --> 0:57:17.560
<v Speaker 4>Ben asked if Andy Reid wins two Super Bowls over

0:57:17.600 --> 0:57:21.360
<v Speaker 4>the next five years then retires, does he does he

0:57:21.400 --> 0:57:24.960
<v Speaker 4>have credible goat coach case? He would be three and nine,

0:57:24.960 --> 0:57:27.240
<v Speaker 4>so he would be three of the last nine Super Bowls. No,

0:57:27.280 --> 0:57:30.640
<v Speaker 4>he would have won three three of nine super Bowls

0:57:30.640 --> 0:57:32.280
<v Speaker 4>that he's been in. No, No, No, you're right, You've

0:57:32.320 --> 0:57:34.120
<v Speaker 4>got it right. Three of the last nine Super Bowls

0:57:34.160 --> 0:57:38.000
<v Speaker 4>with Goltle golt level quarterback, plus fifteen other fifteen other

0:57:38.080 --> 0:57:39.640
<v Speaker 4>years high level NFL success.

0:57:39.800 --> 0:57:42.200
<v Speaker 2>No, I listen, I don't think he's gonna be able

0:57:42.200 --> 0:57:45.040
<v Speaker 2>to anyone that's currently coaching is not going to be

0:57:45.040 --> 0:57:48.000
<v Speaker 2>able to surpass Belichick, but he'll have a case top

0:57:48.040 --> 0:57:50.439
<v Speaker 2>five all time. Okay, you'll have a case for top

0:57:50.440 --> 0:57:52.160
<v Speaker 2>five all time, I think without question. All right?

0:57:52.200 --> 0:57:55.720
<v Speaker 4>Next, Nick asks Nick Demonse, what is your favorite sports

0:57:55.760 --> 0:57:56.840
<v Speaker 4>movie of all time?

0:57:57.040 --> 0:57:58.040
<v Speaker 3>He got game for me.

0:58:00.600 --> 0:58:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Favorite sports movie.

0:58:02.120 --> 0:58:03.880
<v Speaker 3>The Longest Shard. It's pretty interesting.

0:58:04.280 --> 0:58:06.360
<v Speaker 2>You're talking about the remake, the one with Sam.

0:58:06.320 --> 0:58:08.160
<v Speaker 3>With Adam saying, oh, it's oh yeah, there's like an

0:58:08.160 --> 0:58:08.560
<v Speaker 3>old one.

0:58:08.640 --> 0:58:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's an old one with Burt Reynolds. My favorite

0:58:13.720 --> 0:58:17.960
<v Speaker 2>sports movie I really like Tin Cup. I really like

0:58:18.040 --> 0:58:20.880
<v Speaker 2>ten Cup. It's a golf movie, but it's really a

0:58:20.880 --> 0:58:24.200
<v Speaker 2>love story. But it's a great movie. I'm not a

0:58:24.240 --> 0:58:28.640
<v Speaker 2>big sports movie guy. I've never like I'm not really

0:58:28.680 --> 0:58:33.320
<v Speaker 2>into like Field of Dreams, Hoosiers, those movies. Uh, does

0:58:33.440 --> 0:58:37.520
<v Speaker 2>Rocky do the Rockies Countorts? Then Rocky? I mean the

0:58:38.000 --> 0:58:41.680
<v Speaker 2>Rocky Creed was very good, but Rocky one through four

0:58:42.400 --> 0:58:44.320
<v Speaker 2>are pretty outstanding movies.

0:58:44.360 --> 0:58:47.560
<v Speaker 3>All right? Next, all right, ls a ass Or says Nick.

0:58:47.600 --> 0:58:49.640
<v Speaker 4>On the Gambling Show, you were dunking on Victor for

0:58:49.720 --> 0:58:50.880
<v Speaker 4>picking against the Jags.

0:58:50.960 --> 0:58:52.000
<v Speaker 3>What do you have to say for your.

0:58:52.040 --> 0:58:55.400
<v Speaker 2>Savor it for tomorrow Gambling Shows Tomorrow, we're not talking

0:58:55.440 --> 0:58:57.440
<v Speaker 2>about it today. Another two and three week for me.

0:58:57.600 --> 0:59:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Next, All right, Joshua says, I could see Nick is

0:59:00.440 --> 0:59:03.040
<v Speaker 4>a guy who gets one line then gets blasted if

0:59:03.080 --> 0:59:05.160
<v Speaker 4>he was in Star Wars, if he was in Star Wars,

0:59:05.160 --> 0:59:05.920
<v Speaker 4>that is okay.

0:59:05.960 --> 0:59:06.760
<v Speaker 3>Star Wars.

0:59:07.120 --> 0:59:10.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think that might have been a cocaine joke,

0:59:13.920 --> 0:59:19.959
<v Speaker 2>which is not on my menu. I I would take that, though,

0:59:20.400 --> 0:59:22.800
<v Speaker 2>I would take getting in Star Wars. And then somebody

0:59:22.920 --> 0:59:25.640
<v Speaker 2>lightsabers me in half or something. And here's the thing,

0:59:25.680 --> 0:59:28.080
<v Speaker 2>and this is what works against me and my ability

0:59:28.120 --> 0:59:30.800
<v Speaker 2>to actually get in Star Wars. I've never seen any.

0:59:30.640 --> 0:59:36.480
<v Speaker 3>Of them me neither. Dude, go, m this isn't inappropriate.

0:59:36.520 --> 0:59:39.400
<v Speaker 3>I've matched with this girl in Tender like two months ago.

0:59:39.240 --> 0:59:43.320
<v Speaker 4>Right, and like in her bio she had ah she

0:59:43.480 --> 0:59:47.720
<v Speaker 4>said Transformers or Harry Potter as like a question, yes,

0:59:47.800 --> 0:59:50.080
<v Speaker 4>and she was like, right, answers, Oh it's Harry Potter,

0:59:50.160 --> 0:59:53.240
<v Speaker 4>not Star Wars. She was Transformers, and like it was

0:59:53.280 --> 0:59:55.560
<v Speaker 4>a real deal breaker, Like she actually did not talk

0:59:55.600 --> 0:59:56.520
<v Speaker 4>to me because I chose her.

0:59:56.520 --> 0:59:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's why she put that out there. She's a

0:59:58.240 --> 0:59:59.080
<v Speaker 2>Harry Potter fan.

0:59:59.200 --> 0:59:59.920
<v Speaker 3>Did she write it?

1:00:00.480 --> 1:00:02.800
<v Speaker 2>What do you mean? Did she write the movie? Yeah, no,

1:00:02.880 --> 1:00:04.720
<v Speaker 2>but I think that does you know what? I actually

1:00:04.760 --> 1:00:07.560
<v Speaker 2>think that's smart. Here's the thing you wouldn't have gotten

1:00:07.560 --> 1:00:10.320
<v Speaker 2>along with her. If there's someone I think that is

1:00:10.360 --> 1:00:13.919
<v Speaker 2>a good way if you're trying to figure out how

1:00:13.960 --> 1:00:17.920
<v Speaker 2>compatible are we. If someone is, my guess is she

1:00:18.040 --> 1:00:22.120
<v Speaker 2>really likes Harry Potter and doesn't like Transformers at all.

1:00:22.800 --> 1:00:24.760
<v Speaker 2>And so if your answer is I don't know anything

1:00:24.760 --> 1:00:28.000
<v Speaker 2>about Harry Potter seems whack and I enjoyed Transformers, you

1:00:28.000 --> 1:00:30.240
<v Speaker 2>guys aren't gonna have that much in common. All right,

1:00:30.720 --> 1:00:35.120
<v Speaker 2>there's one more question to read. Nick asks Demanse, have

1:00:35.240 --> 1:00:38.600
<v Speaker 2>you been chewing a piece of gum this entire podcast?

1:00:39.520 --> 1:00:44.480
<v Speaker 2>And that Nick? Is this Nick? And I'm asking that Demanse, Wait.

1:00:44.320 --> 1:00:46.320
<v Speaker 3>What do you mean this? I know what's you asking me?

1:00:46.640 --> 1:00:46.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1:00:47.000 --> 1:00:50.120
<v Speaker 4>Uh oh, you are asking It's not even on there,

1:00:50.200 --> 1:00:51.080
<v Speaker 4>correct right copy.

1:00:51.400 --> 1:00:53.920
<v Speaker 3>No, it's the second piece ago. It's been two.

1:00:58.400 --> 1:01:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm angrier than I was when I when you forgot

1:01:00.600 --> 1:01:01.760
<v Speaker 2>your air pods last week.

1:01:03.760 --> 1:01:05.680
<v Speaker 3>You literally told me to go get the gum from

1:01:05.720 --> 1:01:06.560
<v Speaker 3>the store.

1:01:07.040 --> 1:01:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I didn't say to you said I'm not. You

1:01:12.840 --> 1:01:15.520
<v Speaker 2>said you thought you needed to freshen your breath. So

1:01:15.600 --> 1:01:17.479
<v Speaker 2>I said you were like this didn't even have a mint.

1:01:17.520 --> 1:01:19.040
<v Speaker 2>I was like, no, but they have gom next door.

1:01:19.320 --> 1:01:21.240
<v Speaker 2>I thought you would chew it and spit it out.

1:01:21.520 --> 1:01:26.240
<v Speaker 2>We're broadcasting, man, the people were performing.

1:01:26.600 --> 1:01:27.840
<v Speaker 3>Wait's is that a thing?

1:01:28.040 --> 1:01:30.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, of course it's a thing. You have something in

1:01:30.680 --> 1:01:32.800
<v Speaker 2>your mouth obstructing your tongue.

1:01:34.120 --> 1:01:35.200
<v Speaker 3>I wouldn't say it's obstructing.

1:01:35.320 --> 1:01:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, I wouldn't say it's helping.

1:01:36.640 --> 1:01:38.720
<v Speaker 3>And I also haven't been chewing in the mic. Nobody's

1:01:38.720 --> 1:01:39.480
<v Speaker 3>heard me chewing them.

1:01:39.600 --> 1:01:42.360
<v Speaker 2>It's not the chewing in the mic, which I don't

1:01:42.360 --> 1:01:45.280
<v Speaker 2>know if they ever haven't heard. No, I don't think

1:01:45.360 --> 1:01:47.480
<v Speaker 2>I think you know what showed the control room. I

1:01:47.520 --> 1:01:49.360
<v Speaker 2>think they are totally on my side here.

1:01:49.720 --> 1:01:50.080
<v Speaker 3>They were.

1:01:50.320 --> 1:01:52.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, look they're disappointed in you.

1:01:52.200 --> 1:01:54.040
<v Speaker 3>I think Victor is disappointed in you.

1:01:54.040 --> 1:01:54.280
<v Speaker 5>No.

1:01:54.840 --> 1:01:58.400
<v Speaker 2>No, oh, in my shoes? Did you say? In my kicks?

1:01:58.680 --> 1:01:58.840
<v Speaker 3>No?

1:01:59.120 --> 1:02:03.880
<v Speaker 2>What did you say? No, they're not there? You're okay?

1:02:04.000 --> 1:02:04.360
