They usually 21 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 5: get him in on a Saturday or Sunday. No reason 22 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 5: to go ahead and skip Sunday. I'm shocked they did this. 23 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 5: I mean, I've been bored to tears this weekend. 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 3: Well, I mean there's been some baseball, it's a little 25 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 3: bit of horse racing today. There's been some things going on, 26 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 3: but it definitely hasn't had that ring. And I you know, 27 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 3: usually I anticipate you're gonna get a finals game on 28 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 3: a Sunday night, but not this year. 29 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: It's gonna be Monday, and that's probably gonna be the 30 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 2: end of the year.

Yeah, I saw that video. It 43 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 5: was very odd, awkward, very awkward. 44 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 6: Yeah. 45 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 2: I means no, I do not do you know. 46 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 7: Well, actually I just got to explosion. But up until 47 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 7: that moment, the answer was no. 48 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, that's Chrispophett. By the way, we will 49 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 2: definitely hear from him as we move along during the show. 50 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I could probably try to guess what rized 51 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: him up means, which is actually I kind of heard 52 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: Martin VJ at the end. Is that right? It does 53 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 2: it have to do with charisma? Is that right? 54 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 4: Or? 55 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 7: Yeah? 56 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 2: From what? 57 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 7: From everything we know, it seems to just be like 58 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 7: the just means he's hitting on her like charming or smooth. 59 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: Okay, that's what I would have thought. Okay, that that's 60 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: that's okay. 61 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 7: The only way it makes sense to. 62 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 63 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 3: So I'm going to continue to try and find like 64 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: a good, concise, succinct article about the baby Gronk thing 65 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 3: so that I can really speak about it intelligently because 66 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,119 Speaker 3: we're not getting into something so. 67 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: Without really being prepared for it. And the link you 68 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 2: sent me, Arnie was just not not acceptable. I've got 69 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: to I've got to keep on looking. 70 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 3: It was just way too many ads and it was 71 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: just it was hard for me to try and find that. 72 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 5: I need look at the video, go look at the 73 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 5: video that that really explains it off. 74 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 4: You go watch the video. 75 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 2: Okay, well, I'll watched the video during the break and 76 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 2: we will talk about it. But Nuggets are up three 77 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 2: to one Monday, could be the end of the series. 78 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: Let's start there. 79 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 3: That's the biggest thing happening right now in active sports. 80 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 3: It just feels like one team's better than the other. 81 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: And we said this, Arnie Aaron and I said this 82 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 3: last week right here on these airwaves. I said, if 83 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 3: this is a sweep, I wouldn't be shocked. In fact, 84 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 3: I think I actually picked it that way, but five 85 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: felt like a maximum. Maybe they get another one. 86 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: I don't know, but the heat probably a little over 87 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: their skis. At this point, you can start to. 88 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: See where one team just has a lot more in 89 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 3: the tank, and they also have a lot more fire 90 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 3: power than the other one does. How are you assessing 91 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: the NBA Finals though? Oh yeah, I mean you said 92 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 3: it right. One team is better than the other. Denver 93 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 3: is better than Miami. Miami finally hit that wall. 94 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 5: I give them credit for getting this far, but just 95 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 5: getting this far, sometimes the clock strikes midnight, and that 96 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 5: that's what it's time for. Cinder rule to go home 97 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 5: and she's overstayed her welcome. That's what That's what's going 98 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 5: on here. Again, give Miami credit for what they've done. 99 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 4: It's three to one. 100 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 5: We'll take a tremendous comeback to get back from something 101 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 5: like this. 102 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 4: But Denver's the better team. Denver's played better. 103 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 5: Denver has done a good job to obviously get the 104 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 5: stars involved. They haven't let the three unknown or the 105 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 5: four known undrafted guys for Miami really all go off. 106 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 4: At the same time. 107 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 5: So yeah, I mean, but I've been bored to tears, 108 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 5: to be honest with you, with this NBA Finals. It's 109 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 5: not that there's a lack of star power. You have Jolkic, 110 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 5: but it's missing a whole bunch. I'm not sure what 111 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 5: it is. I maybe I don't feel the smack talk 112 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 5: out there. Maybe because Denver Miami's not quite rivals. Maybe 113 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 5: it's because we don't hate Denver like we do Dallas 114 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 5: or something like that. I'm not sure what it is, 115 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 5: but I'm just not feeling it this time around there. 116 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 3: Jason, So interestingly, you said you know it has the 117 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 3: star power, and you said you know you've got Jokic. 118 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 3: That's an interesting that's just an interesting topic in general, 119 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 3: because if you're talking about what he does on the floor, 120 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 3: absolutely Jokic is as star as star gets at this point, right, 121 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: But I still don't know if Jokic is somebody that's 122 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 3: getting people to tune into these games. 123 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 2: I don't know. 124 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 3: If, like, if you are watching the finals and you 125 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 3: haven't watched a lot of Yokic, then you're coming away 126 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 3: impressed the way we've all been impressed with him for years. 127 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 3: But I'm not sure that you can go to work 128 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 3: and start talking about Nicola Jokic, you know, just around 129 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 3: the water cooler, if such a thing still exists. 130 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: And actually draw those people that don't all know who 131 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: he is to the screen to see him. 132 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 3: We're not talking about Steph Curry, Lebron James, Kevin Durant, 133 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 3: you know, even John Morant, assuming he's going to be 134 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 3: able to play this coming season. But those bigger, those 135 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 3: guys that leap off the screen to you just when 136 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 3: you hear their name. And NBA players are huge celebrities, 137 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: Jokic is still relatively anonymous, I think outside of like 138 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 3: in comparison to something like Yannis Giannis is another foreign 139 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 3: born player, another international player that's come in and taken 140 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: the league by storm. 141 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 2: Very similar to Jokic. 142 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 3: But there's something different about Yanis than Jokic, And I 143 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,359 Speaker 3: think maybe one of the biggest things is Jokic does 144 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 3: not look like like If you just saw a picture 145 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 3: of Jokic, knew nothing about him, and they told you 146 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 3: he was an NBA player, you would not in a 147 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: million years suggest that that guy would be who he 148 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 3: actually is. 149 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 2: It's impossible to look at him and assume that he 150 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 2: he's gonna be able to do the kind of stuff 151 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: that we all see him doing a routine night after night. 152 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 5: Basis, I don't know if it's that much, you know 153 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 5: where people don't know him that you know, ninety nine 154 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 5: percent of the people in the world have no idea 155 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 5: who I am. But if tomorrow I was voted the 156 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 5: best looking guy in the world and my face was 157 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 5: planted all over the internet and everybody, and I was 158 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 5: back to back winners two years in a row of 159 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 5: the best looking guy in the world, and there's my 160 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 5: face TikTok Facebook, Twitter, and all you saw was my face, 161 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 5: you would know who I am. He's a two time 162 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 5: MVP and he went far off when you get this 163 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 5: time around. 164 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 4: I mean that's like the same thing. How could you 165 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 4: not know who a two time MVP is in baseball, basketball, football? 166 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 5: I mean, he should have a bigger name. So what 167 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 5: is the problem there? Is it because he doesn't have 168 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 5: a flashy game? Is it because he's not an American 169 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 5: where some people suggest that, yes? Is it because he's 170 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 5: white where some people suggest that I did hear you 171 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 5: say yes on that one? 172 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 4: So? Or is it a combination of all the three? 173 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: Jason, you tell me some people some people would say 174 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 3: yes to that for sure. Yeah, of course, you know 175 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 3: we've had those. We've had a few people mentioned Jokic 176 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 3: in that way. We had the Kendrick Perkins staying with 177 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 3: JJ Reddick early season, right, So. 178 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 2: I mean that's certainly one thing. 179 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 3: But I mean you look at some of the other 180 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 3: even white international players over the last. 181 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 2: You know, fifteen to twenty years. 182 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 3: You had Dirk, You've got Luca, Yeah, you had Steve 183 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,239 Speaker 3: Nash coming out of Canada. 184 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: Like you still had guys that had charisma. 185 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 3: There's something about Jokic in particular where it's just like 186 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 3: he just looks like a normal dude. Now that's what 187 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 3: you stand Next time I realize how not normal he is. 188 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: He is a two time MVP. 189 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 3: There is a difference though, between knowing who he is 190 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 3: and caring who he is. 191 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 2: I love the guy. I love watching him. I've loved 192 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: watching him for years. 193 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 3: It's amazing to me that somebody can be that dominant 194 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 3: without having to shoot the ball forty times, and in fact, 195 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: the team is almost better when he doesn't, when he's passing, 196 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 3: getting them all involved. He's exactly who you would want 197 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 3: to build a team around, and he is He's extraordinary. 198 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: I love watching him play basketball. 199 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 3: I feel like I'm still in the minority on that, 200 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: maybe not within our audience here on Fox Sports Radio. 201 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 3: You guys know you know, and you guys watch and 202 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 3: you guys care, but outside of the circles, you're not. 203 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 3: For example, I don't think they're talking about Nicola Jokic 204 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 3: on the View. I don't think they're talking about Nicola 205 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 3: Jokic on the Five. I don't think Anderson Cooper's talking 206 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 3: about Nicola Jokic. It's just different. There's a different kind 207 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 3: of like aura or star power that Jokic doesn't seem 208 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 3: to have yet. And the question is when you add 209 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 3: hardware past just the two MVPs. If he ends up 210 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: actually winning the championship, which it certainly appears like is 211 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 3: about to happen, what is that going to mean for 212 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 3: his name going forward in that in that other side, 213 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 3: in that circle. And I don't know that it's gonna 214 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 3: make much of a difference at all. I think outside 215 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: of the basketball audience, it's not gonna change anything. 216 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 5: I was gonna agree with you. I don't think it's 217 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 5: gonna make much differs at all. If he does go 218 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 5: ahead and and and and win a championship, I think 219 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 5: it's still gonna be, you know, the same type of 220 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 5: situation where people just don't think of him all that much. 221 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 5: And you know where I brought up those three things, 222 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 5: which one is it or a combination of all three? 223 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 4: There could be a fourth thing. 224 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 5: And the fourth thing is that he plays in Denver, 225 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 5: you know, not a high profile team, not a team 226 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 5: you see a lot on television during the regular season. 227 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 5: If Jokic was on the Lakers, if he was on 228 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 5: the Knicks, if he was on Golden State with Steph 229 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 5: Curry at Kway Tompson, he'd be a household day. He'd 230 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 5: be doing commercials every two seconds for crying out loud, 231 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 5: but he's on. 232 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 2: Bokay okay, so okay. 233 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 3: So I sent you an email with a rundown, like 234 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 3: right before the show started, and the topic that I 235 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 3: had written down for the end of our one was 236 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: a hypothetical question if Jokic played for the Lakers, Celtics, 237 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 3: or Nicks, how big a star would he be? Now, 238 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 3: Golden State's another good example because of the success that 239 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 3: they've had recently and Stephen Curry being there, that makes 240 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 3: that count a little bit more as well. So you 241 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: think that it really And the reason that act you 242 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 3: can ask the question, and the reason why I guess 243 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 3: we both independently kind of thought about this particular topic 244 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 3: is it does feel like it's a function of him 245 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,319 Speaker 3: being a member of the Denver Nuggets, because the Denver Nuggets, 246 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 3: even if they win the championship, they're just gonna be 247 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 3: a team that won an NBA Finals that's not gonna 248 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 3: be particularly memorable. It's not one of those like if 249 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 3: he played in Boston, we would never hear the end 250 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 3: of it. 251 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 2: We would never hear the end of the Nicola Jokic story. 252 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 3: Knicks as well, if he went there, and all right, 253 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: already I know you're a Knicks guy, but like if 254 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 3: he went there and did for them. 255 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 2: What nicksance hope Chris STAPs Porzengis was. 256 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 3: Gonna do, oh geez when he came in. If Jokic 257 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: had been able to do the same thing he's done 258 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 3: in Denver in New York, he would be on billboards, 259 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 3: he would be everywhere. And I still don't know, Like 260 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 3: he's not an unlikable guy at all, and you just 261 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: hear you know, he's very business like and all that 262 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 3: kind of stuff. But I don't know what like his 263 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 3: charisma level is. But it wouldn't matter. I don't think 264 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 3: if he was wearing the right uniform. 265 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 5: I agree with your one hundred percent on that. If 266 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 5: he was in a more high profile city, I could 267 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 5: see so many commercials with him and his brothers, and 268 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 5: I mean he could he'd be an advertising machine. For 269 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 5: crying out loud, I don't know what he does is 270 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 5: advertising now. Matter of fact, I can't even think of 271 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 5: one commercial, right. I think I'm seeing Jokic, I don't know, 272 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,599 Speaker 5: doing discount double takers, don't. I don't know, Jason, I've 273 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 5: ever seen that. Is he selling me a card? Did 274 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 5: he tell me to go buy Jeep. 275 00:12:58,240 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 4: I don't know, don't. 276 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 5: I don't remember any commercials say open up a bank 277 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 5: account the back of America. 278 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 4: I don't know that. I've never seen anything with him 279 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 4: as the spokesman. So somebody's not during the job. 280 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 5: When you're a two time MVP, that's gotta come with 281 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 5: some advertisement. It's got a is there a tennis shoe 282 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 5: or excuse me, is there a basketball shoe? 283 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 4: A high top after him? I don't even think there's 284 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 4: one of those. 285 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that. 286 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 3: I think that you're landing on the side of if 287 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: you're looking at there being a challenge. 288 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: That needs to be overcome from a marketing perspective or 289 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: just from a star perspective. For Jokic, it's much less 290 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: a problem with Jokic himself and much more a product 291 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 2: of where he happens to play and how there's just 292 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 2: no tradition and no pizazz surrounding the Denver Nuggets as 293 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: a franchise. 294 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,959 Speaker 5: Did you go well when didn't John Elway play in Denver? 295 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 5: I'm gonna have to double check that. 296 00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 2: Guess that's Kim squad. 297 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 5: Can we get somebody on that to double check that? 298 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 5: So it's not the city of Denver. It's just the 299 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 5: Denver Nuggets. 300 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Nuggets organization. 301 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 4: Well, I don't know. 302 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 5: You know, you have some pretty good fans with hockey 303 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 5: out there, obviously obviously what's going on with the Broncos. 304 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 5: So maybe it's something that just has to do with 305 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 5: the Nuggets because there's a lot of diehards out there, 306 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 5: no doubt about that. 307 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 2: I mean, Denver. 308 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 3: Nuggets just sounds like one of those NBA franchises that 309 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 3: you're not supposed to care about. And they're about to 310 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 3: be the NBA champions or are they? 311 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: Is it over Monday night?

Any chance, 342 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: what what's the percentage chance right now, Arnie that the 343 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 2: heat make this miraculous come. 344 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 5: Back negative too. Yeah, no chance wentsoever. It's not going 345 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 5: to happen. Like we said, Denver is the better team 346 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 5: and the clock has finally struck midnight for them. 347 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 4: And Jimmy Butler. 348 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 5: Is missing how many games in a row now as 349 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 5: he just looked at Pedestrian plus they've lost one how 350 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 5: many home games in a row? 351 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 4: They lost to Miami Heat. 352 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 5: They're just not prepared right now and they've tired out. 353 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 4: It's it's just all but over. Denver should really handle 354 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 4: things the next game. 355 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, Butler definitely hasn't had his best stuff 356 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 3: as of late. I don't know if i'd say he's 357 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 3: hit a wall, but he definitely has played a lot 358 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 3: of minutes and he's had to play a lot of energetic, 359 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 3: up tempo leadership kind of minutes because he had to 360 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 3: be on more often than not for them to win. Now, 361 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 3: Caleb Martin was excellent in the round against the Celtics. 362 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 2: He could have been MVP. 363 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 3: I heard some people suggest maybe he should have been MVP, 364 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 3: but Butler is still the straw that starts to drink that. 365 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 3: One other guy that I think has played pretty well 366 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 3: for them throughout the finals is Bam and I wasn't 367 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 3: sure how he was going to contribute from an offensive standpoint, 368 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 3: but he's had a couple double doubles. 369 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 2: He's had more offense, I think than maybe we expected. 370 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 2: You expect the rebounds, you expect the defense. 371 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 3: For the most part with Bam, but if he's giving 372 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 3: you twenty plus a few times, that's a nice bonus. 373 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: Boy. 374 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 3: They could really use Tyler hero right about now, though, 375 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: like the fact that he hasn't been there for them 376 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 3: that that is a you know, I don't know that 377 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 3: I'm not saying it makes a difference in terms of 378 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 3: who wins the finals and who wins the championship, but 379 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 3: it definitely puts a lot more pressure on some of 380 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 3: these other guys. And when you got Strusco over from 381 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 3: three on Friday night and you've got you know, Ducan 382 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,159 Speaker 3: Robinson played all right, but you're just not getting enough, 383 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:17,199 Speaker 3: especially from your distant shooting, to keep pace with the 384 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 3: Nuggets because they have so many guys that can hurt you. 385 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 3: And nobody was expecting Aaron Gordon to explode for twenty seven. 386 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 3: But if you're gonna get twenty seven from him, you 387 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 3: probably got no chance. 388 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 2: If you're playing against that team. 389 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, Jason, but you've heard the expression dance with who 390 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 5: brung you? And even Tyler Hero said well, my hand 391 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 5: still is sore and stuff like that. But he also 392 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 5: didn't want to hurt the continuity on what the team 393 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 5: was going through. Now, this was before it was three 394 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 5: games to one in the NBA Finals, and I don't 395 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 5: think I could blame them. I'd take look and take 396 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 5: look what they've done without me. They've made it all 397 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 5: the way to the finals. I think it was one 398 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,719 Speaker 5: game a pizza at that point, or maybe two to 399 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 5: one at the most. I don't think i'd be rushing 400 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 5: back to get back either if my team looked good 401 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 5: and they were able to win without me. So I 402 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 5: can see that, and I can see where he's saying, Hey, 403 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 5: the guys that replaced matter of fact, the fact that 404 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 5: they've done so well without him is gonna open up 405 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 5: a lot of questions in the off season if they 406 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 5: would move him, because you obviously got a lot of 407 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 5: guys that are gonna step in, and which guys do 408 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 5: you want to take minutes away from next year when 409 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 5: Tyler Hero comes back, because a lot of these guys 410 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 5: deserve I mean, Vincent has looked absolutely phenomenal. I love 411 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,239 Speaker 5: Duncan Robinson. I love what he's done this year. I 412 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 5: mean in the playoffs. So who's the guy that's not 413 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 5: gonna get it? And by the way, when it comes 414 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 5: to Jimmy Butler a side thing, as I was talking 415 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 5: arguing with Chris Pike on Sundays, I like Jimmy Butler, 416 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 5: but he's not the ultimate super superstar like everybody. 417 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 4: Thinks he is. I love the story. 418 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 5: I could come up with twenty guys in the NBA 419 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 5: i'd rather have over Jimmy Butler. And that's not a 420 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 5: knock against Jimmy Butler. It's just the god's honest truth. 421 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 3: Are you talking about in terms of talent and ability 422 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 3: or are you talking about the mindset, the leadership quality? 423 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 4: No, no, talent, okay. 424 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 5: And also because that Jimmy Butler's won thirty three okay. 425 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 2: So, like I said, you're looking at him from a 426 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 2: tangible perspective. 427 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 3: I think I think a lot of the value of 428 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 3: Jimmy Butler comes on the other side. Oh, I think 429 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 3: a lot of Jimmy Butler's value his toughness, Yeah, yeah, 430 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 3: his toughness, his leadership, his killer mentality. When it comes 431 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 3: to being a competitor out there. He has that where 432 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 3: a lot of guys are lacking that. What I think 433 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 3: that that right there makes him more valuable probably than 434 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 3: some of the guys that you would name in that 435 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 3: list of twenty. Whether if you were just looking purely 436 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 3: on basketball ability here and there, yeah, could I could 437 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,199 Speaker 3: definitely see your point there to the Tyler hero argument. 438 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I like your. 439 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 3: Point, and I like that Heroes not trying to force 440 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: himself back in. 441 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 2: I've mentioned this many times before. 442 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 3: There was a finals played in nine between the Lakers 443 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 3: and the Orlando Magic. The Magic got to the NBA Finals. 444 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: This was when Dwight was at the height of his powers. 445 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: They were rolling. They had a really solid basketball team. 446 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 2: They also were missing Jamir Nelson for a substantial amount 447 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: of time. Going into the postseason. It was all rayperh 448 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 2: Alston and skipped to my Lou was just really good. 449 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 2: They knocked out Lebron's Calves. In fact, that was where 450 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 2: I think that was when the Calves lost Lebron where 451 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: he was just like, I'm gonna have to do more. 452 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 2: But he hit that clutch shot that was nearly from 453 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 2: half court. 454 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 3: That was a really great Conference Finals, but Rapah Austin 455 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 3: was rolling and the team was rolling with him at 456 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 3: the point guard position, and Jamir Nelson got healthy right 457 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 3: before the NBA Finals and stan Van Gundy put him 458 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 3: back in the lineup, and I have long believed that 459 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 3: if that never happens and Austin keeps playing all the 460 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 3: minutes because he was part of the full crumb of 461 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 3: the team that got them to that point that it 462 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 3: played throughout the postseason, I'm not sure they don't win 463 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 3: the series, but at the very least, I think they 464 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 3: lost it with that decision. Stanmy Gunny's made a lot 465 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 3: of good coaching decisions. I thought that was one of 466 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 3: his worst. And to your point, if Hero comes in 467 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 3: and upsets the chemistry that has developed in the postseason, 468 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 3: I don't know that it says anything for the future, 469 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 3: but I think that you ride with you said, you 470 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 3: ride with who's there, and you ride with who got 471 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 3: you there, I don't think you upset chemistry that's working, 472 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 3: even if on paper it looks like the right move. 473 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: Everybody knows Jamir Nelson is. 474 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 3: A better overall player than ray Fuh Austin, but not 475 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 3: in that moment, not for that team. And not the 476 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 3: way that that series was gonna play out. 477 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 5: You were The most famous decision ever, I believe is 478 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:54,360 Speaker 5: when the Dolphins they had their undefeated season, Bob Greasy 479 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 5: got hurt early in the year, I think like the 480 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 5: third game, and they brought in Don Struck. Who took 481 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 5: them was it was either up to the championship game 482 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 5: or to the Super Bowl. 483 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 4: Everybody's the championship game, and then they put Greasy back in. 484 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 5: So it was that that was a case of not 485 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 5: dancing with who brog and they said we want to 486 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 5: go ahead and go back with I'm not so sure 487 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 5: I would have been able to make that move after 488 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 5: you know what my replacement has done. 489 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 4: To be honest with you, now, yeah. 490 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 2: No, I think I think that's very valid. 491 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 3: Your your Dolphins fandom was showing when you said that 492 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 3: was the worst decision. 493 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 2: Of all time. 494 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 4: Well they still ended up winning it. 495 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,360 Speaker 5: So but yeah, it h it's it's gonna be interesting. 496 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 4: I think once you know Tyler Hero, I think it 497 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 4: opens up now. 498 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 5: And I said this earlier that I think i'd move 499 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 5: him after what I've seen what some of the back 500 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 5: better players are, the backup players could do. Plus I'm 501 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 5: gonna save a boatload of money on not signing him, 502 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 5: So I I think moving him for some draft picks 503 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 5: might be the way to go. 504 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, he's definitely gonna have value somewhere, like 505 00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 3: somebody's gonna want him immediately. 506 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 2: It really needs him, So you could you could be right. 507 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 2: I don't know. 508 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 3: I am wary to look at a finals run and 509 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 3: say the guys that they have right now this is 510 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 3: gonna be what they're gonna be. 511 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 2: For the rest of their career. But certainly this has 512 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 2: done nothing to dissuade your point, at least in the well, 513 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 2: in the in the present tense. 514 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 5: Damian Lillard already said he wasn't gonna go to Miami 515 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 5: if they won the whole thing. Now that they didn't 516 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 5: win the whole thing, that was the Remember he said 517 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 5: on the pod I forget whose podcast it was. 518 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 4: That he's like, give me some teams that you'd like 519 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 4: to go to. 520 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 5: In the first one he said was was Miami, so boom. 521 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 5: That kind of helps things. I gotta help for place, 522 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 5: Tyler Hero if you ask me, well. 523 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:43,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think that. 524 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 3: And you've see a lot of articles written about what's 525 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 3: gonna happen with the heat and how they're gonna be 526 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 3: star chasing after this because you got Butler, but you 527 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 3: gotta have somebody else. Yeah, it can't be Bam Bam 528 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 3: can be your three, but you gotta have another star 529 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 3: if you want to win a championship. That said, they 530 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 3: got awfully close to winning a championship and they're not 531 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 3: totally out of it yet. 532 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,400 Speaker 2: Let's go to your best friend. 533 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 3: Steve de Seger and find miste what's happened today in 534 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 3: the world of sports? 535 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 10: And I think it's the other way around. Actually, you 536 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 10: mentioned the nineteen seventy two Dolphins. Of course, most famously, 537 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 10: thank you, the undefeated seventy two Dolphins, Bob Greasy came 538 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 10: back for the AFC Championship. Did you know that they 539 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 10: played the AFC Championship game on the road. They were 540 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 10: the undefeated Miami Dolphins. But back then there was no seating, 541 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 10: so they just rotated by division, if you can believe that. 542 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 10: So fortunately they won. I believe it was a close 543 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 10: game on the road to get into the Super Bowl 544 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 10: and then won a close Super Bowl. But that's just 545 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 10: astounding to think back to. And I had to look 546 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 10: up there as a name I forgot when you mentioned 547 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 10: the Orlando Magic Finals in two thousand and nine where 548 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 10: they lost the Lakers courtney. Lee was the name I 549 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 10: could not remember. Miss missed, Oh that's right, yes, and 550 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 10: say yes. He missed a layup at the buzzer of 551 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 10: Game two and Orlando lost in overtime. And then Game 552 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 10: four at home, Orlando blew a double digit lead in 553 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 10: the second half and lost in overtime. So history will 554 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 10: show ah Lakers four games to one. It was quite 555 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 10: close in two thousand and nine. Well, it's surprisingly close 556 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 10: on the ice right now in Game four the Stanley 557 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 10: Cup Final. Now the home team has won the first 558 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 10: three games of this series. That's only happened once in 559 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 10: the last decade. In the final, it wasn't looking good 560 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 10: for the home team. Tonight, Vegas led at Florida three 561 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 10: I think second period. It's now three to two with 562 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,959 Speaker 10: just under eleven minutes to go. The Toronto Raptors new 563 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 10: head coach will be Darko Rajahkovic from the Grizzlies. He's 564 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 10: been an assistant in the league for nine years with 565 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 10: OKC and with Phoenix as well. So this means that 566 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 10: all thirty NBA coaching jobs are now filled because Nick Nurse, 567 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 10: who used to be in Toronto, is now the Philadelphia coach. 568 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 10: Replacing Manti Williams in Phoenix is Frank Vogel. Williams has 569 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 10: the big contract in Detroit. Milwaukee's new head coaches Adrian 570 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 10: Griffin and Houston has Ime Udoka. The amazing stat from 571 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 10: AP that just in the last two years in the NBA, 572 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 10: out of thirty teams in the league, nineteen have changed 573 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 10: coaches at some point in the last two years. NBA 574 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 10: Finals Game five isn't until Monday night. Number one Egas 575 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 10: Fiantek won the French Open, her third title there in 576 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 10: the last four years. Horse Racings Belmont Stakes was on 577 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:32,959 Speaker 10: Fox TV, won by Arcangelo, the favorite Forte finished second. 578 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 10: Manchester City took the Champions League Final. Sunday Nascars on 579 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 10: Fox TV from Sonoma's Road Course. That's the last race 580 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 10: of the year on Fox. There was the Exfinity Race 581 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 10: tonight on FS one from Sonoma. Eric Almarola is the winner. 582 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 10: Aj Allmendinger finished second. One late ballgame in the major 583 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 10: leagues Mariners at Angels scoreless, bottom of the second most 584 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 10: of the country on Fox TV saw the Yankees win 585 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 10: over Boston three to one. The Cubs got a four 586 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 10: to victory at San Francisco. Winning pitcher Kyle Hendricks had 587 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 10: a no hitter until two outs bottom of the eighth, 588 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 10: when he allowed a double off the wall. He had 589 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 10: eight innings on the hill ninety four pitches, so if 590 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 10: the no hitter was still going he certainly could have 591 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 10: gone back out there for the ninth. Houston and Texas 592 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 10: with wins. Braves won their seventh in a row. Tampa 593 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 10: Bay had won seventh straight by the way until losing 594 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 10: it home to the Rangers eight to four. Corey Seger 595 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 10: of Texas went five for five. Oakland has won four 596 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 10: in a row. I have to say that again out loud, 597 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 10: the A's have won four in a row. 598 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 4: I gotta believe it. 599 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 10: I think it's a misprint, but ten innings they do 600 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 10: say it's three to one. A's one at Milwaukee tonight, 601 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 10: So that means the A's record up to sixteen and 602 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 10: fifty on the season, and the Mets seven game losing 603 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 10: streak is over. After a victory at Pittsburgh five to one. 604 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 10: Mets fan Jason Smith on his show last night, just 605 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 10: gave up on the entire season. Already on June the 606 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 10: ninth Ladies and gentlemen. 607 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: That makes me very happy. 608 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's right, mister Bray's fan.

And I went to the to 653 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 5: the police officer at the other the thing. He was 654 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 5: with a security guard. I go, hey, can you clear 655 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 5: some guys out of our seats?

He goes, get 659 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 4: the blake out here, go sit somewhere else. I'm not going. 660 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 5: I'm like, whoa, whoa. They don't play games out there 661 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 5: in the Rocks days, and that must have been hysterical. 662 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 5: I wish they would have recorded it so we could 663 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 5: have seen it. 664 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 6: You know. 665 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 3: So losing a bet, losing a league, something like that, 666 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 3: what's the most punishment that you've sustained. 667 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 5: I don't usually come in dead last, so I mean, 668 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 5: I've seen people have to get tattoos and yeah, you know, 669 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 5: we stand on street corners. I've finished last in the 670 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 5: fantasy football so I gotta wear this wrestler or something 671 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 5: like that. I know this is pretty bad, though, but 672 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 5: I like it though. I think it was funny, just 673 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 5: as long as he didn't get attacked or anything like that. 674 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 4: You know. Yeah, gotta be careful. 675 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 2: If Aaron Torres finished last in our league. 676 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, something that honestly, I think is very possible. What 677 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 3: would be the punishment you would come up with for him? 678 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 4: Oh gosh, there's so many. 679 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 5: There's not so many, there's so I mean, i'd have 680 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 5: to put something like opposite of you Connor or something 681 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 5: like that, but you know, something to get him that 682 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 5: would destroy with you Connor or something to that effect, 683 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 5: because that's only think he's like a real fan of too. 684 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 2: You know, I can guarantee you I know what people would. 685 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 3: Come up with for me, and that is that I 686 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 3: would have to watch and write on and talk about, 687 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 3: maybe even host a podcast series on the entire upcoming 688 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: XFL season. 689 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 4: That's something you enjoy, is that what you're saying there? 690 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, very much. So. 691 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 3: I'm a big time fan of spring football leagues, There's 692 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 3: no question about that. But yeah, the Altwove thing, everything 693 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 3: has happened with the Astros, Like we wondered how that 694 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 3: was gonna play out, and what really happened was because 695 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 3: of COVID, you never really got the astros kind of 696 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 3: getting whatever experience to get that next season, but you're 697 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 3: still seeing little trickles of it. Right, there's some guys 698 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 3: that get booed every time they come up, no matter 699 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 3: where they are outside of Houston at least, right, and 700 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 3: then you get stuff like this where you're wearing an 701 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 3: al Tuo Bay uniform because the Yankees were part of 702 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 3: that whole charade on the other side of it years 703 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 3: and years ago. So it's still the gift that keeps 704 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 3: on giving, maybe not in the way we anticipated, though. 705 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 5: It makes up for lost time now for the COVID. Yet, 706 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 5: you know, you went two years of not getting your booing. 707 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 4: In, so you get it. Even even though it's a 708 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 4: couple of years late, you still want. 709 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 2: To go ahead and get it in, you know, Yeah, no, absolutely. 710 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 5: It's like it's like running into your ex wife and 711 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 5: you didn't say anything during the divorce, but now that 712 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 5: you run into her. 713 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 4: Five years later, you know, there's a few things I 714 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 4: wanted to say that I didn't say back five years ago. 715 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 3: You probably have a notepad in your breast pocket, like, Hey, 716 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 3: you know I've been waiting for this. 717 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 2: I hope you've got time.

So, Kyrie Irving is not 735 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 3: playing in the NBA finals right matter of fact, he 736 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 3: didn't play in the NBA playoffs at all this year. 737 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 2: Currently with the Mavericks.

They got into it on Twitter 741 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,480 Speaker 3: a little bit, and Portnoy's big time Celtics fan, and 742 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 3: any Celtics fans not gonna be a Kyrie fan because 743 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 3: even when he was there, that was a disaster for 744 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 3: a very short period of time. And I guess Portnoy 745 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 3: finally said, you know, I'll take you one on one 746 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 3: after Kyrie said let's go play one on one in 747 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 3: a response to verbal jabs and karma police and all 748 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 3: this other stuff that's out there.

You do you think Kyrie 761 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 2: would take Dave Portanoy? Do you? 762 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 5: I think that'd be a great bat if I took 763 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 5: Kyrie over Dave Portnoy. 764 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 4: That's I'm gonna go ahead and go out a little 765 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 4: bit on that. 766 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 3: What Jason, Yeah, yeah, I don't think that that required 767 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 3: analysis at all. But I mean it's it's interesting and 768 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 3: it's kind of fun, and I don't know that it's 769 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 3: really mean spirited.

But it did get us to thinking, Arnie, 773 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 3: if you could play one on one with somebody right now, 774 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 3: and you can do it for charity, you can do 775 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 3: it because you don't like him, whatever it is, Who 776 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 3: would that person be? 777 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 5: I got, I got yeah, I got to one would 778 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 5: be lowry because I said yeah, because if I go, 779 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 5: if you want to flop, I'm gonna give you a 780 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 5: reason to flop. I'm gonna give you an elbow to 781 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 5: the throat. I hate that guy flopping. I just I 782 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 5: just want to go ahead and get right in his 783 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 5: grill defensively and and just say come on now, let 784 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 5: stop with the with with the bs. So I I'd 785 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 5: love to just go and battle it out with him 786 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 5: and then another person i'd run a play was I 787 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 5: think I could actually beat him, would be Draymond Green. 788 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 5: So I would just let him shoot from the outside 789 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 5: and see if he could stop me. 790 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 4: But yeah, I would love to go and play him. 791 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: Also, wait, wait a second, Ornie. You would hold Draymond 792 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 2: on the outside and force him to shoot. 793 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,719 Speaker 3: Perimeter like you do. You don't think he could get 794 00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 3: past you and get to the hole. 795 00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 5: Well, that's why i'd back up a little bit and 796 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 5: let him take those mid range jumpers, which I I 797 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 5: know encourage. 798 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 2: You would encourage the jump shot. 799 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 4: Yes, exactly, that's what I met. 800 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. Wow, I mean the fact that you actually have 801 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,320 Speaker 2: strategy baked in Oh yeah. 802 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 5: Oh absolutely, I think about this a lot, of course 803 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:02,760 Speaker 5: I would. 804 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 3: I mean, Draymond would be an easy answer for me too, 805 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 3: just because I've always thought that if he played for 806 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 3: a bad franchise, we'd never hear about him unless it 807 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 3: was for negative purposes. But look, he's tough, he rebounds, 808 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 3: he plays dirty when he has to. You might have 809 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,439 Speaker 3: to wear a cup if you're playing against that guy 810 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 3: like there are I don't know, like he would be 811 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 3: the first name that would maybe pop up in my 812 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 3: head I also think it'd be fun to play against 813 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 3: him in one on one, just because it'd be fun 814 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 3: to experience it, right, It'd just be fun to watch 815 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 3: the Draymond experience up close and personal, because I think 816 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 3: it's hard sometimes to fully appreciate the things he does 817 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 3: very well because we're so focused on scoring, and that's 818 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 3: really not Draymond's game. I mean, it was a Michigan 819 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 3: State to some degree, but that's not the role that 820 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 3: he's had. 821 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 2: To play for Golden State. 822 00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 3: That's not the role that's going to get him into 823 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 3: the end of the Hall of Fame. 824 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 2: You know what, Kyrie Irving might be the answer. 825 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 4: I would want to play Steph Curry, and that I 826 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 4: don't know. 827 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 3: Fun, no, no, because then you back down and he 828 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 3: just shoots over the top of you and you never 829 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 3: touch the ball. All you're doing grabbing it when it 830 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,320 Speaker 3: falls through the net and then sending it back to 831 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 3: him if it's make it, take it. Definitely not against 832 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 3: Steph Curry, like, in no way, shape or form. I 833 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,920 Speaker 3: would say, how about James Harden from a couple of 834 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 3: years ago when he was kind of packing. 835 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,760 Speaker 2: On the pounds and didn't want to be anywhere. 836 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 4: Oh, hefty James. I don't know. I mean he was 837 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 4: he could still always shoot the ball if he left 838 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 4: them open. 839 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 5: But he didn't, you know, he was he did slow 840 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,919 Speaker 5: down to the bucket. You can, you know, just force 841 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 5: him to the right side. He's a lefty, so force 842 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 5: him right. 843 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 3: In the past. Guys that are not playing now. Anybody 844 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 3: come to mind, anybody you just couldn't stand. 845 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 5: Oh gee, the old Celtic probably a lot. I go 846 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 5: back to the Detroit Pistons, like Bill Lamber with the 847 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 5: permanent under his eye thing. I'd like to go and 848 00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,359 Speaker 5: you know, give him a black guy under the other. 849 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 2: Chris Purfett, big time Pistons fan. 850 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 3: Sorry about that number five pick that you guys. 851 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:08,240 Speaker 2: Landed in the lottery. 852 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 3: All you needed was a top four pick and you're 853 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 3: gonna be guaranteed somebody good and you end up getting five. 854 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 7: That's just that's just what it's been for about that. 855 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 7: That's you know what they get that for tanking. I 856 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 7: didn't watch it. 857 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 2: Hey, look what is it.

I have the closed 893 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 4: caption on. 894 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,919 Speaker 5: One of the announcers called it an embarrassment with what's 895 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 5: going on? 896 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:08,240 Speaker 7: Correct. 897 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 5: Look, I don't know if I saw this correctly, but 898 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 5: Matthew could chuck when he was getting into it. 899 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 4: He was using his stick to. 900 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 5: Go around the back of the guy's neck, and then 901 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 5: he was taking a couple of swings into the back 902 00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 5: of his legs. 903 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 4: I don't know if that's going to be a suspension 904 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 4: or not bad. 905 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 5: But the ref dragged him off him and started getting 906 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 5: in his grill. 907 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 3: So if they go I can watch that video and 908 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 3: they see stuff involving a stick, that could be a 909 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:32,400 Speaker 3: big problem. 910 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, big problem.

There 927 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,800 Speaker 3: was a lot of moral high ground at the beginning 928 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,799 Speaker 3: of this, and then you started to see more and 929 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 3: more names defect that were important to the PGA Tour. 930 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 3: I know, there's Tiger and everybody else.

There's a lot of big 932 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 3: names out there that the PGA Tour increasingly realized it needed, 933 00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 3: even though the ratings weren't in the tank. 934 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:52,479 Speaker 2: I think the death. 935 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 3: Now you correct me if I'm wrong, or if you 936 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 3: agree with me, tell me to me Arnie. When Brooks 937 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 3: Koepka capture. 938 00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 2: The Wanna Maker and won a major, won. 939 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 3: The PGA Championship, that was the straw that broke the 940 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 3: Campbell's back for the PGA. 941 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 2: They could not continue under that.

Because money in star power is your entire association. 948 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,680 Speaker 5: Of course, money and star power. You hit it right there. Yes, 949 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 5: that was one of it. But I always say, when 950 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 5: you're watching Lawn Order, or you're watching any movie and 951 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,399 Speaker 5: you might have find out who the bad guys are, 952 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 5: what do you do? 953 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,880 Speaker 4: You follow the money trail. Even in any investigation, follow 954 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 4: the money. You'll find the bad guys out here. You 955 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,359 Speaker 4: have to follow the money. And now you know why 956 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 4: the decision was being made. It was bleeding, bleeding the PGA, 957 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 4: they're deep pot it's over there. Oh with the liv golf, 958 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 4: especially when you've had a fund of six hundred billion, 959 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 4: that's with a b six hundred billion dollars, you could 960 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 4: bankrupt pretty much anybody. You want to tie things up 961 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,399 Speaker 4: in court, and that's where this was going. This one 962 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 4: is gonna go out in court. 963 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 5: And the only people that were gonna get rich were 964 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 5: not the golfers. Oh well, the ones that went over 965 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 5: to live were gonna get rich, but the attorneys that 966 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 5: were taking these cases. Jason, it had to be done. 967 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 5: People saw this as far off as like a year ago. 968 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 5: So no real surprise here. When you're bleeding money like 969 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 5: this and you're tying it up in courts, even it's 970 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 5: like a bad divorce. Sooner or later, both parties come 971 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 5: to their senses and say, do we want to keep 972 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 5: to give the money to the attorneys, or do we 973 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 5: want to go and join forces here and split amicably. 974 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 5: Here was joined forces and that's exactly what they did. 975 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:54,959 Speaker 4: Jason. Yeah. 976 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,359 Speaker 3: I think the biggest problem for the PGA, and I'm 977 00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 3: sure they knew this from the beginning, was it they 978 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:04,279 Speaker 3: weren't going to compete in the bank account, right no 979 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 3: way with Saudi Arabia, like even if they raise the purses, 980 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 3: and so man Ahan said, look, they spent fifty in 981 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 3: legal fees already, and they had dipped into reserves and 982 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 3: paid somewhere around one hundred million in increased purses and bonuses. 983 00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 2: To try and keep players. 984 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 3: But all that was going to happen inevitably if liv 985 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 3: wanted to play that game is just keep paying more 986 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 3: and more, exactly more. Eventually a PGA is going to 987 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 3: be the one that gives out. This is the same story, 988 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 3: is It's it's similar to kind of your argument there 989 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 3: is if you go and sue a company, they can 990 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,479 Speaker 3: just try to hold on and hold on and hold 991 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:44,840 Speaker 3: on until you run out of money. 992 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 4: Some people there's nothing left, Jason. Some people are sick 993 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,720 Speaker 4: and they try to hold out to the person dies. 994 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 4: Some people are home and they'll say, let's just drag 995 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 4: it out till they're dead. You know, there's many different strategies. 996 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 4: Just pay it out. Just I end up in Gorgibus. 997 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 2: We'll bleed them. 998 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:02,719 Speaker 4: Drivers are not rich. 999 00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 5: Different strategies, and that's what was going on here, you know, Yeah, I. 1000 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 3: Think it became At one point we were talking about 1001 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,759 Speaker 3: blood money, yes, but the important part was never on 1002 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,759 Speaker 3: the blood once it became true, as you stated, not 1003 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 3: knowing how I was going here, but that they were 1004 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 3: bleeding out. That the PGA was bleeding out blood money 1005 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 3: was a legitimate argument to make it and remains one. 1006 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:30,080 Speaker 3: But they couldn't afford to care about the blood because 1007 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 3: the money was failing. The money was going in the 1008 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 3: wrong direction. So what's your opinion of what's happened? Like 1009 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,760 Speaker 3: looking at the PGA, how do you view them today? 1010 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,920 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I don't think of them any different 1011 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 5: like everybody else is. I know, Monohana is just getting 1012 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 5: ripped like crazy, and that's a whole different story. 1013 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 4: But I don't think the PGA is taking it hit. 1014 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 5: Matter of fact, I'm more curious than ever, just being 1015 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 5: a small golf fan if it's not Tiger feel like 1016 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 5: you mentioned, I'm usually not that interested. I'm a last 1017 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,240 Speaker 5: day let's watch the last nine holes and see what's going. 1018 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,879 Speaker 4: On, type of guy. But now I'm interested. What's going 1019 00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 4: to happen? 1020 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 5: How's the reaction gonna be between the live golfers and 1021 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 5: the ones that stayed loyal to the PGA. Is there 1022 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,439 Speaker 5: gonna be any animosity. Is there gonna be a war 1023 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 5: of words out there? Are they gonna partner them? You know, 1024 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 5: make sure that it's two and one in each threesome. 1025 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:31,240 Speaker 5: I don't know what's gonna happen, but I'm certainly looking 1026 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:32,439 Speaker 5: forward to it, that's for sure. 1027 00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 3: And then of course you've got Bryce and de Schambeau, 1028 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 3: who made the statement basically that you know, the nine 1029 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 3: to eleven thing, we just need to move. 1030 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 2: Past that, like families are the victims. We just got 1031 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,919 Speaker 2: to move forward. And all this that didn't that did 1032 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 2: not ring particularly well. 1033 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 5: That's a horrible thing to say, actually, is what it is. 1034 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 5: I mean, obviously I see the point he was trying 1035 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 5: to make, but what a horrible way of saying it, 1036 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 5: and just a horrible thing to say all around. Just 1037 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 5: could you imagine if you were dealing with something like 1038 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 5: that and somebody told you to just get over it, 1039 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,839 Speaker 5: be no different than if you lost a loved one, 1040 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,920 Speaker 5: a sibling, a significant other and someone said, ah, you 1041 00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 5: just gotta get over it. 1042 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:17,320 Speaker 4: It just it just was horrible. 1043 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,240 Speaker 3: To be honest, I think, yeah, I mean, it rang falsely, 1044 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,600 Speaker 3: and you're you're right that there was a point to 1045 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 3: what he was saying, but it was just so clumsily stated, right, 1046 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 3: and it came across so callous. But I mean, ultimately, 1047 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 3: I have plenty of respect for anybody that at this 1048 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 3: point that comes out and. 1049 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 2: Just says, yeah, I mean, they paid me more money 1050 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 2: to do this. 1051 00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,520 Speaker 5: So Jason, if you have a business, let's say you 1052 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 5: have a lifelong family business, been in the is this 1053 00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,359 Speaker 5: one hundred years, one hundred year pizza shop passed out 1054 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 5: from your great grandfather to your grandfather to your father 1055 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 5: to you. You're having a tough time. COVID really hit 1056 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,360 Speaker 5: your heart. Now you need somebody to go ahead and 1057 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 5: stay in the business. Some people back then would see 1058 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 5: loan sharks. You know, you didn't care where the money 1059 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 5: he came from. You aren't proud about it, but you 1060 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 5: had to save your business and you had to go 1061 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,759 Speaker 5: into in the partnership there. So I don't know, maybe 1062 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:09,839 Speaker 5: he's kind of a somewhat of the same analogy. I'm 1063 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 5: not really sure, to be honest with you. 1064 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 3: So Monahan, you know you talked about how he's getting 1065 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 3: pillowy everywhere. You've had Amnesty International, you've had all these 1066 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 3: various rights groups, You've had a bunch of people basically 1067 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 3: call him hypocrite and say, you know, we have footage 1068 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 3: of you from a year ago talking to Jim Nantz 1069 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 3: on CBS about Live and about all your issues with 1070 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 3: the Saudi Investment Fund and everything else. And he was 1071 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 3: asked about this and he said, I understand all the 1072 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 3: human rights concerns. I've had them myself. And he paused, 1073 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 3: and he was asked about his daughters and how he 1074 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 3: would explain this to them, and all of this. 1075 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:45,040 Speaker 2: Monahan was in. 1076 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:49,879 Speaker 3: A bad spot here because regardless of what he did, 1077 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,839 Speaker 3: either his league was gonna continue to bleed money or 1078 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,839 Speaker 3: lose players because he was just gonna not be able 1079 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,040 Speaker 3: to afford to keep them. There were gonna be something 1080 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 3: that were gonna stick forever, but some were not, and 1081 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 3: they were There were probably more that were eventually gonna 1082 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 3: get wind and dined right out of there. 1083 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 2: But then when you. 1084 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 3: Make this decision, it's so easy for everyone to then 1085 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 3: point back to what you said and point back to 1086 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 3: the funding behind everything, and the nine to eleven angle 1087 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 3: and everything else that was going on, the monarchy in 1088 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 3: Saudi Arabia and the human rights abuses and all the 1089 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 3: stuff that we know about the Saudist and about the 1090 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,879 Speaker 3: prince and just the way royalty is handled over there 1091 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 3: and everything like he had no win here, and that's 1092 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 3: I think that's why he paused when he said, I've 1093 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 3: had those same human rights concerns myself. 1094 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 2: It was almost like, man, those concerns are legit, but 1095 00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 2: I have a business that I have to run, right. 1096 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 5: He's putting he's putting these politics behind business and thinking 1097 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,520 Speaker 5: about what was better for the PGA at the time, 1098 00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 5: and this was the answer. He rat his back against 1099 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 5: the wall. There was really no answer, Jason. I mean, 1100 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 5: everybody predicted it. Donald Trump predicted that they were gonna 1101 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,360 Speaker 5: go ahead and join forces. I mean, seriously, there was 1102 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 5: not too many people that thought that the PGA was 1103 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 5: going to be able to outlast live golf, especially in 1104 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 5: the financial district. 1105 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 4: That just wasn't gonna happen. 1106 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 2: And Jeff Ogilvie, who won the Open, the US Open 1107 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 2: in two thousand and six, he actually said point blank 1108 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:29,040 Speaker 2: he thinks that the investment Fund, this is what they 1109 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 2: were planning all along, that they were gonna just keep 1110 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 2: on raising the stakes and raising the money and eventually 1111 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:36,400 Speaker 2: there was gonna be some. 1112 00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 3: Kind of a you know, Olive Branch a bridge to 1113 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:40,399 Speaker 3: where they. 1114 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 2: Could get a piece of the PGA pie. 1115 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:47,360 Speaker 3: I think from a sports fans perspective, Yeah, looking past 1116 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,359 Speaker 3: all the stuff that we've talked about for the first 1117 00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 3: ten minutes or so here this hour, I'm just glad 1118 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 3: to see all these golfers back on the tour. Like 1119 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 3: the tour that I want to watch is the one 1120 00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:01,879 Speaker 3: that includes all the great in the PGA, as well 1121 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,480 Speaker 3: as the guys who had moved on to go to 1122 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:09,399 Speaker 3: Live for their reasons, for their monetary reasons, and you know, 1123 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:12,840 Speaker 3: maybe even in some cases not being happy with certain 1124 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:15,799 Speaker 3: things that were happening on the PGA tour. But I 1125 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 3: don't want to watch majors or I don't want to 1126 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 3: watch big time tournaments where Brooks Kopka is not there, 1127 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 3: DJ's not there, Bryson's not there. 1128 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 2: Whether I like. 1129 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 3: Individual players or not, the star power that golf needs 1130 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:34,320 Speaker 3: is John Rohm versus Brooks Keptkin is it's both sides, 1131 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 3: it's everybody being together. From a sports perspective, this is 1132 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 3: the perfect answer. It's a very imperfect situation. It's a 1133 00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 3: very emotionally charged situation, and I've had trouble with Live. 1134 00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 3: I had trouble when Vince McMahon signed his deal years 1135 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 3: ago with Saudi Arabia and got, you know, forty five 1136 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:57,439 Speaker 3: million dollars an event to go and run all these. 1137 00:53:57,360 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 2: Shows over there. It's just kind of you look at it. 1138 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 2: It's easy for us from. 1139 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 3: A distance to just point our finger at that and 1140 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 3: not recognize how difficult it is if you're actually the 1141 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:11,279 Speaker 3: guy making that decision. 1142 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,880 Speaker 2: Now, WW was different. They didn't need it necessarily, But 1143 00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 2: when you look at the PGA, the PGA was in 1144 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 2: a spot where there were way too many guys that mattered, 1145 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 2: that had gone to live that they needed back on 1146 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,280 Speaker 2: their tour or back in the fold of whatever organization 1147 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 2: they were running. And so that's how you end up 1148 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:29,320 Speaker 2: with this decision. 1149 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,239 Speaker 5: Simple question then, Jayson, it was a real simple question. 1150 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 5: Go back a year ago, what would you have done differently? 1151 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,360 Speaker 5: Or what would you have Monahan done differently? 1152 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 2: That's a really good question. I don't know the answer 1153 00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:44,320 Speaker 2: to it, I think. 1154 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:48,719 Speaker 5: Because except not being a hypocrite, exactly exactly, what if 1155 00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 5: this a year and a half ago or two years ago, 1156 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 5: when this verse was coming out and you said, you 1157 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,920 Speaker 5: know what, we invite you to be part of the 1158 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:57,400 Speaker 5: PGA people. 1159 00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:59,479 Speaker 4: Would know what ballistic they're doing? What are you doing? 1160 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 4: We don't want that, we don't need that influence. So 1161 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 4: he didn't do it. There was a split. They were 1162 00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 4: stealing guys that didn't work. What would you what would 1163 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 4: you have done different? That's the only think. If God heard, 1164 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 4: what would you have had? 1165 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,879 Speaker 5: Except people said, well, if I was Monahan, I would 1166 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 5: have kept my mouth shut. 1167 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 4: I wouldn't have said, we don't what, well, you know what? 1168 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 4: That was a uh. That's his job is to speak, 1169 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 4: you know. He can't keep his mouth shut. So what 1170 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 4: would you have done different if it was you or Monahan? 1171 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:29,960 Speaker 4: I don't know if I have the answer. 1172 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 3: No, I don't know that there is an answer, because again, 1173 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,080 Speaker 3: it all comes down. It all comes down to money, 1174 00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 3: and it comes down to I mean, I would have 1175 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:39,759 Speaker 3: said the exact same thing last year. 1176 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:41,760 Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to get into bed with the cuties 1177 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:43,840 Speaker 2: in any way, shape or form. I would have fought 1178 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:45,480 Speaker 2: that with every fiber of my being. 1179 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:46,839 Speaker 4: And you'd be a hypocrite too. 1180 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:49,719 Speaker 2: Well, if you ended up in this spot now, I 1181 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 2: would like to think maybe. 1182 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,440 Speaker 3: I wouldn't end up in this spot, but I'd have 1183 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 3: the same challenge that Monahan does fighting and dealing with 1184 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:01,319 Speaker 3: one hundred million dollars in legal fees from basically bottomless 1185 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 3: coffers on the other side of the courtroom, and that's 1186 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,360 Speaker 3: a big time. That's an issue, that is a huge, 1187 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 3: huge issue. I'm just glad we're. 1188 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 2: Gonna get see all the golfers back. 1189 00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the one thing that I do like about this, 1190 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,359 Speaker 3: and it is gonna be interesting to see how they're 1191 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,800 Speaker 3: received and if there is any animus between the players 1192 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 3: that were loyal and the ones that left. You know, 1193 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 3: Rory's kind of been one of the guys that's been 1194 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 3: out there and he's even said, I understand how the 1195 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 3: fans feel. 1196 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,080 Speaker 2: Right now, he's still not. 1197 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,359 Speaker 3: Really happy with it, but he's gonna have to live 1198 00:56:30,360 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 3: with it because this is no pun intended on that 1199 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 3: in terms of live but that's that, that's the world 1200 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:36,719 Speaker 3: in which we live. 1201 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,239 Speaker 5: And they're gonna get equity shares, right, is that I 1202 00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 5: don't even know what they're not really mean. 1203 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:42,839 Speaker 2: The loyalists are gonna get equity shows. 1204 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 4: What does that mean? I'm not sure, but yeah, yeah. 1205 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:47,800 Speaker 2: Yeah it does. Maybe it's gonna make them whole.

Profet spinds this one from time to time. 1228 00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 2: But I appreciate it. 1229 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:09,960 Speaker 3: MLB, we're somewhere around sixty five games, and yes, a 1230 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:10,560 Speaker 3: little bit more. 1231 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:14,439 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay's played sixty seven, for example, but sixty five 1232 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 2: is pretty close on the ballpark you already mentioned, aren'nie 1233 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 2: your mets are it's not gonna happen this year? 1234 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 4: No, well, wait, I don't know about this year. 1235 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 5: Slow down and still got another like one hundred games left, 1236 00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 5: so I mean, not ready to go ahead and give 1237 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 5: on up, but there's still a ways to go. 1238 00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1239 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:33,840 Speaker 3: Well, I mean they're three and seven in their last ten. 1240 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 3: They're thirty one and thirty four overall. They're nine and 1241 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:39,040 Speaker 3: a half back in the East. But you look at 1242 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,200 Speaker 3: I mean, the Marlins are thirty six to twenty nine. 1243 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 3: You wonder if that's gonna continue, right, right, The Phillies 1244 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:49,000 Speaker 3: have not been good this year either. They're nine back 1245 00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 3: and they're two games under five hundred, and Washington's atrocious. 1246 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 3: I didn't want to start there necessarily, even though both 1247 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 3: of our teams reside there. My Braves are forty and 1248 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 3: twenty four, one seven in a row, eight two in 1249 00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:05,080 Speaker 3: their last ten. But it does I mean, at one 1250 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 3: point it looked like the Braves were just gonna take 1251 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 3: this and run away with it. And then they ran 1252 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 3: into a bit of a tough stretch themselves, and you 1253 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 3: saw a little bit of tightening, and now you're seeing 1254 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 3: kind of the Braves kind of pull back in front 1255 00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:21,120 Speaker 3: by a decent margin. But we're, you know, again, about 1256 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 3: sixty five games in. What do you know right now 1257 00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,600 Speaker 3: that you may not have thought you were gonna know 1258 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:29,640 Speaker 3: at this point, because there's a few teams that have 1259 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 3: certainly surprised so far. 1260 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,440 Speaker 5: What I know right now is the National League East 1261 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 5: is absolutely putrid. Everybody in that division other than the 1262 00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 5: Atlanta Braves are in the minus in plus and run differential, 1263 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:44,560 Speaker 5: and the Braves are overwhelmingly they're like one hundred better, yeah, 1264 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:48,000 Speaker 5: than just about everybody else in that whole division. So 1265 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,320 Speaker 5: at what point I thought, maybe that was a pretty 1266 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 5: good division, the Mets and the Braves up on front, 1267 00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 5: Maybe the Nationals were gonna compete a little bit, the 1268 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 5: Phillies could be tough. Turned nothing turned out to be 1269 00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 5: true other than the Braves being real good. So sixty 1270 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 5: remember there were sixty five games in only But what 1271 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 5: I really know is that the National League East has 1272 01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:10,040 Speaker 5: just been a horrible division. 1273 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,400 Speaker 4: Other than for the Atlanta Braves. 1274 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,320 Speaker 3: I would say the two most surprising things that I 1275 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:19,880 Speaker 3: have seen so far this season is that the Diamondbacks. 1276 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 2: Are for real. 1277 01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 4: Oh geez, Yeah, that's the Backs are legit. 1278 01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 3: They really are. They're thirty nine and twenty five. They're 1279 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 3: two and a half up on the Dodgers right now. 1280 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:28,200 Speaker 3: Now will they be able to hold that, I don't know, 1281 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:31,200 Speaker 3: but they're legit, like when you get sixty five games 1282 01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:33,040 Speaker 3: in and you've actually had a bit of a sample size. 1283 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 3: And I saw them play against the Braves last weekend 1284 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 3: in a three game series. That's a good baseball team. 1285 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 3: I think that's coming entering the season. And the other 1286 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:45,480 Speaker 3: one is the forty and twenty four Baltimore Orioles. 1287 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 2: The Orioles in the Al East. That's a legit club. 1288 01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 3: That's a young baseball team too, so they could be 1289 01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:57,400 Speaker 3: around for a little while. They've got a nice they've 1290 01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 3: got a nice staff, but they've got a very solid 1291 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 3: young core. 1292 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:05,240 Speaker 2: That's pretty impressive to watch. They're five and a half 1293 01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 2: games back because they happen to play in the same 1294 01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 2: division as the Tampa Bay Race right Tampa Bay's forty 1295 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:14,200 Speaker 2: seven and twenty right now, even that's crazy, that is insane. 1296 01:01:14,360 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 2: They have the most obviously the most wins in the 1297 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 2: game right now at forty seven. The Orioles and. 1298 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 3: The Braves, I think, and well, no, the Rangers have 1299 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 3: forty one wins, and then the Oriols and the Braves 1300 01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 3: have forty each. But I didn't see the d Backs. 1301 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 3: But I really didn't see Baltimore being this good. And 1302 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 3: then I think we knew Tampa Bay was a solid team. 1303 01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 3: I don't think anybody saw him being forty seven and twenty. 1304 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:37,200 Speaker 4: Well, i'll tell you what. 1305 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:40,560 Speaker 5: After the sixty five games, I didn't realize that who 1306 01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 5: is going to be a bigger disappointment than Padres or 1307 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 5: the Mets. If you would have told me they will 1308 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 5: both be some five hundred. I always said, you know what, 1309 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:50,080 Speaker 5: you're fired, Thank you for coming in today. We're not 1310 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 5: gonna need you. Goodbye. That's ridiculous. I actually do not. Well, 1311 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 5: it's the Mets. I know that they signed some big 1312 01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 5: time pitching names, and uh, it's just not going to 1313 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 5: work out for them. They've wasted a lot of money 1314 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 5: this year. 1315 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 3: Well, I mean the other thing and this happened, and 1316 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 3: it was super unfortunate during the WBC. What's Diaz going 1317 01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 3: down for the year. I mean, you certainly were still 1318 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 3: going to have trouble with the starting rotation, at least 1319 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 3: the way that they've pitched. But losing maybe the best 1320 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 3: closer in baseball before the season ever started, that puts 1321 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 3: you way behind a ball. And I also think it 1322 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 3: was just deflating. Not just to the fans. I think 1323 01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 3: it's deflating to that clubhouse. 1324 01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,520 Speaker 5: Oh, I totally would have to be. I agree with 1325 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:39,200 Speaker 5: you one hundred. I mean, yes, it was the injury, 1326 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,600 Speaker 5: but it just the ore around it. I mean, it 1327 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:43,680 Speaker 5: sucks the life out of you. And I'll give you 1328 01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:46,400 Speaker 5: one more. And you know, I know there's some good stories. 1329 01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 5: You mentioned the Rays, you mentioned the Orioles. 1330 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 4: But sixty five games in, I know this this season 1331 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 4: for Major League Baseball has not been very intriguing at all. 1332 01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:00,760 Speaker 4: I'm not sure what it's missing yet. I don't know 1333 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:04,360 Speaker 4: if it's usually this quiet sixty five games in. Maybe 1334 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,960 Speaker 4: we need the last forty for things to kind of 1335 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,320 Speaker 4: shake up or wait for after the All Star break, 1336 01:03:09,360 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 4: But I don't know. Nothing's really kind of sticking out at. 1337 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:12,440 Speaker 2: Me right now. 1338 01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 3: You know, it's weird because I've watched more baseball this 1339 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 3: year than I've watched in probably a decade, right, man, 1340 01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:21,240 Speaker 3: I've I've watched ninety percent of the Braves games. I 1341 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 3: don't usually get to watch nine innings because I have 1342 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 3: a two year old and that's just not possible. But 1343 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,520 Speaker 3: it's on in the background pretty much at all times. 1344 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 3: I'm following the Braids podcasts and things like that, So 1345 01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 3: I'm up on that and I'm watching the league and 1346 01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 3: I'm and I'm enjoying the baseball that I'm seeing. 1347 01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 2: I do see more action, I see a faster pace. 1348 01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:40,959 Speaker 2: I like the game. 1349 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,040 Speaker 3: I'm getting into a lot more teams and a lot 1350 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:47,200 Speaker 3: more players than maybe I expected back during spring training, 1351 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:50,480 Speaker 3: for example, I'll tell you that, you know what, let's 1352 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 3: get to the saga and get an update, and we'll 1353 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:54,280 Speaker 3: get the latest on what's happening with Otani and his 1354 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 3: two run shot. 1355 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 2: That man, that guy's good. I don't know if you 1356 01:03:58,240 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 2: knew that. That's an holy to say, Hey. 1357 01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:04,280 Speaker 10: Take that is the st Angel scoring. They are trailing. Yeah, 1358 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 10: you mentioned the Braves one again. And it was a 1359 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:09,040 Speaker 10: six to four final against Washington. Time of the game 1360 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:10,680 Speaker 10: two hours and twenty two minutes. 1361 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:11,960 Speaker 4: Nice, I love that. 1362 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:14,720 Speaker 10: And you mentioned the frantic finish of the hockey game 1363 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 10: in Florida tonight. This is how it sounded on TNT 1364 01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:20,840 Speaker 10: with Kenny Albert the end of Game four, Vegas trying 1365 01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 10: to hold on with a three to two lead on 1366 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 10: the road, and then all the sticks are up and 1367 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:35,200 Speaker 10: then all the fights begin, and then I mean, that's 1368 01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 10: went on for thirty to forty five seconds. 1369 01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 2: Announcement, fans throwing water bottles on the ice. This is embarrassing. 1370 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 2: Right now. 1371 01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 10: Vegas beats Florida three to two the final. It was 1372 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 10: three to nothing in the second period. Golden Knights lead 1373 01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:53,560 Speaker 10: the series three games to one, and Vegas will be 1374 01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:57,439 Speaker 10: hosting Game five on Tuesday. Neither franchise has ever won 1375 01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:01,000 Speaker 10: the Cup NBA Finals Game five is and until Monday night, 1376 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:04,600 Speaker 10: Denver has never won the NBA title. Nuggets lead the 1377 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:07,520 Speaker 10: series three games to one over the heat and by 1378 01:05:07,560 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 10: the way, in both sports, it's almost automatic historically when 1379 01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 10: you're up three games to one in the final, that 1380 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:17,000 Speaker 10: you go on to win it. So it could be Tuesday. 1381 01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 10: Hockey season ends, after Monday, NBA season ends. Golden Knights, 1382 01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:23,760 Speaker 10: by the way, in recent years when they're up three 1383 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:26,960 Speaker 10: in a playoff game, twenty seven to one record not 1384 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 10: too bad, even more impressive. In a finals game, a 1385 01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 10: team that's up three has won thirty four straight games, 1386 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 10: going back to two thousand and six, when Edmonton blew 1387 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:42,360 Speaker 10: a lead to the Hurricanes and lost in overtime. Toronto 1388 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:46,080 Speaker 10: Raptors have ANUE head basketball coach. It's Darko Rajahkovich from 1389 01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,520 Speaker 10: the Grizzlies. He's been an assistant in the league for 1390 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,480 Speaker 10: nine years. Egas Fiontek rank number one won the French 1391 01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:55,240 Speaker 10: Open men's finalists. Tomorrow. Horse Racing's Belmont Stakes was on 1392 01:05:55,360 --> 01:06:00,080 Speaker 10: Fox TV, won by Arcangelo. The favorite Forte finished second. Sunday, 1393 01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 10: NASCAR is on Fox TV from Sonoma's Road Course. Last 1394 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 10: race of the year on Fox. Tonight's Infinity Race was 1395 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,680 Speaker 10: on FS one, won by Eric Almola. You were talking 1396 01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:13,080 Speaker 10: about the PGA the story today Reportedly they said, I 1397 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:15,520 Speaker 10: think it was Wall Street Journal with the report initially 1398 01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,560 Speaker 10: that it couldn't afford the legal fight against live golf, 1399 01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 10: so it merged. Couldn't we all have seen that right 1400 01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 10: at the beginning, you wouldn't be able to spend the 1401 01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 10: Saudiast just asking so maybe not frame the whole thing 1402 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:32,240 Speaker 10: as a moral failure to jump to Live golf if 1403 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 10: you know you're never going to be able to outspend them. 1404 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 10: PGA golfers yesterday's story who remain loyal to the tour 1405 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 10: will get equity shares in the new enterprise, but those 1406 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:43,280 Speaker 10: who left for Live Golf will not. They could face 1407 01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:47,640 Speaker 10: penalties for leaving equity shares sounding like stock in the 1408 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 10: new merger because. 1409 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:50,880 Speaker 4: Pgboways, wait, could you get that money? 1410 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 2: You know what is it? 1411 01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, it would have much. 1412 01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:56,120 Speaker 10: It would have to grow, like handing them stock now 1413 01:06:56,360 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 10: and then guess who's funding this new I don't know 1414 01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:03,920 Speaker 10: what they're gonna call it. Details later, But PGA commissioner 1415 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 10: had said after this deal he apparently will be having 1416 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:11,439 Speaker 10: oversight over Live Golf, so he will be the one 1417 01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,640 Speaker 10: to determine if it even continues to exist after this year. 1418 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,959 Speaker 10: That's curious because the announcement this week is PGA Tour 1419 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:21,240 Speaker 10: merches with Live Golf and Europe's DP Tour, and yes, 1420 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 10: that ends all the rivals ongoing litigation. That's the biggest thing. 1421 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:27,560 Speaker 10: So the PGA is now part of a for profit 1422 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:31,680 Speaker 10: entity that's completely new. It's collectively owned with a Saudi investment. 1423 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:36,360 Speaker 10: They'll initially be the exclusive investor in this PGA Tour 1424 01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,480 Speaker 10: Incorporated will stay tax exempt because it's technically a separate 1425 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:43,320 Speaker 10: new organization that's being formed unifying pro Golf. So a 1426 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,840 Speaker 10: lot of details to be decided that three organizations are 1427 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 10: now going to have to establish a process for the 1428 01:07:47,960 --> 01:07:51,600 Speaker 10: golfers who need to reapply for PGA membership after this 1429 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 10: season to Major League Baseball. The late games in Anaheim, 1430 01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:56,840 Speaker 10: Mariners lead five to two over the Angels in the 1431 01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:59,919 Speaker 10: top of the fifth. Shoheotani with a four hundred foot 1432 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:02,080 Speaker 10: two run homer in the third inning, but that's the 1433 01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:04,840 Speaker 10: only Halo scoring so far. One of the games on 1434 01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 10: Fox TV tonight had the cub shutting out the Giants 1435 01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:09,720 Speaker 10: four nothing in the bay Are. The winning pitcher, Kyle 1436 01:08:09,760 --> 01:08:12,520 Speaker 10: Hendricks had a no hitter until two outs in the 1437 01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 10: bottom of the eighth he allowed a double off the wall. 1438 01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 10: Pitched eight innings. Yankees over Boston three to one, and 1439 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 10: by the way, longtime Yankee radio man John ste saw 1440 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:29,840 Speaker 10: this during that game tonight, h well on Yankees Radio network. 1441 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:33,760 Speaker 4: Oh the three to two swung on a pop foul 1442 01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:34,759 Speaker 4: back here. 1443 01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 2: Pow Oh wow, it really hit me. 1444 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 4: I didn't know what was coming back that far. 1445 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,600 Speaker 10: John Sterling apparently finished out the game. But it's a 1446 01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 10: guy who will be turning eighty five soon back to you. 1447 01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:51,320 Speaker 5: Oh wait, they'd be correct the saga real quick on 1448 01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 5: the mistake that he had what he said that. 1449 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:56,160 Speaker 10: I didn't mention your kid again. 1450 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,599 Speaker 5: No, no, when you said that Don Strock replaced Bob 1451 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 5: Greesy was Earl Morale. Should have corrected me that. I 1452 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:04,880 Speaker 5: know that, but you didn't correct me. So I'm gonna 1453 01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 5: I'm gonna blame you.

That's shoe 1468 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 3: leather kind of journalism. 1469 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:47,680 Speaker 2: Artie. No. 1470 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 4: I love that he toughed it out. 1471 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:49,479 Speaker 2: He did. 1472 01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:52,120 Speaker 5: He got three ours in there that could have done 1473 01:09:52,160 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 5: without that. But good for him. At least he wasn't 1474 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 5: bleeding or getting knocked out or anything to that effect. 1475 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:00,719 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, if that was Anthony, he probably 1476 01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:02,799 Speaker 3: doesn't get to broadcast the rest of the game, right. 1477 01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Look, Anthony Davis was great during the. 1478 01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 3: Postseason, so but you know, there is a bit of 1479 01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:14,720 Speaker 3: a reputation there, and that's all I would say. 1480 01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 6: Absolutely. 1481 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 2: There's also a reputation for Connor McGregor. 1482 01:10:19,520 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 4: Oh geez, Connor McGregor. 1483 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 3: Is or was tremendous in the octagon, great fighter, one 1484 01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:31,120 Speaker 3: of the most charismatic athletes you could even say, of 1485 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:39,760 Speaker 3: the century and certainly polarizing. And also now he's a 1486 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:42,559 Speaker 3: coach on The Ultimate Fighter, the reality show for UFC, 1487 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:47,200 Speaker 3: and he was at Game four the NBA Finals, and 1488 01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:49,200 Speaker 3: there was kind of a little skit set up at 1489 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:54,360 Speaker 3: halftime with the heat mascot Bernie not Bernie Fratto. 1490 01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:56,760 Speaker 2: He'll join the fourth dollars of the show. He'll be 1491 01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:58,560 Speaker 2: a Nuggets mascot anyway. 1492 01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:04,559 Speaker 3: Bernie, b you are in I Bernie was sent to 1493 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,640 Speaker 3: the emergency room. This was not a gimmick. This was 1494 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:09,759 Speaker 3: not a work. 1495 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:14,599 Speaker 2: This was legit. Conor McGregor hit him twice. He hit 1496 01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:18,439 Speaker 2: him kind of in the nose face region, and then 1497 01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 2: when Bernie hit the ground, he kind of it didn't 1498 01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 2: fully mount him, but he threw a shot to the 1499 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 2: prone Bernie. And I'm asking this question. 1500 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:29,559 Speaker 4: Well, why did do we know? 1501 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:29,960 Speaker 2: What? 1502 01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:31,920 Speaker 4: Did it get out of hand? Was he trying to 1503 01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:33,679 Speaker 4: hurt him or was it just the skin he didn't 1504 01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:35,840 Speaker 4: realize how strong he was or something like that. 1505 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,639 Speaker 3: I'm gonna explain it. I'm gonna explain how I think 1506 01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:39,240 Speaker 3: this went down. 1507 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 2: Okay, he knew those punches were legit, right, he knows 1508 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,080 Speaker 2: how to pull a punch these things if you go 1509 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 2: watch this video. I mean, these were full on shots. Okay. 1510 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:59,759 Speaker 3: I think he overestimated how much protection the mascot's head 1511 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 3: is going to provide him, right. 1512 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:04,240 Speaker 2: I think he thought, oh, I can just whil out 1513 01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:08,879 Speaker 2: on this this, you know, this apparatus that he's wearing 1514 01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 2: to be Bernie that's gonna protect him. So I don't 1515 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,479 Speaker 2: really have to make this look too fake. I can 1516 01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:16,760 Speaker 2: go in in there and throw real punches and they'll 1517 01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:21,639 Speaker 2: never get through, Like he'll never feel it false. These 1518 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:23,280 Speaker 2: looked vicious, ARENI. 1519 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:27,639 Speaker 5: I have not seen the punches, but you haven't seen him. 1520 01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:30,880 Speaker 5: I know that he went to the emergency room. I'm 1521 01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 5: thinking to myself, that's quite a lawsuit this guy has. 1522 01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,120 Speaker 4: Whoever plays Bernie the ball. 1523 01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:39,439 Speaker 5: He's gonna have a lot of attorneys wanting to take 1524 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:39,960 Speaker 5: this case. 1525 01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:42,200 Speaker 2: You know. Yeah, during the break, you need to go 1526 01:12:42,240 --> 01:12:42,600 Speaker 2: find this. 1527 01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna look it up, right, I will. 1528 01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:46,639 Speaker 2: I mean he was sent to er. Now he got 1529 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:49,679 Speaker 2: out of the er, and I don't know that there's 1530 01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:53,800 Speaker 2: any you know, damages, animus or anything left over. But 1531 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:55,600 Speaker 2: he took a left hook and then he took a 1532 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 2: straight to the face. And again it was the head gear. 1533 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,880 Speaker 2: And I think think that Connor McGregor just didn't. 1534 01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:04,320 Speaker 3: Realize that he gear was not exactly gonna protect him 1535 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:07,360 Speaker 3: from these shots. Now, maybe Connor also just got a 1536 01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:09,400 Speaker 3: little excited and got a little Connor And you know, 1537 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:10,400 Speaker 3: Connor can't get out. 1538 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 2: Of his own way some of the time. So he's 1539 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:19,600 Speaker 2: out there promoting his pain relief spray, and. 1540 01:13:21,360 --> 01:13:23,760 Speaker 3: You can even think there was a missed opportunity there 1541 01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:28,280 Speaker 3: to have then sprayed Bernie in the face and Bernie 1542 01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:32,439 Speaker 3: jumps up and that's the skit. But Bernie ended up 1543 01:13:32,479 --> 01:13:33,920 Speaker 3: in the emergency room. 1544 01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:36,160 Speaker 2: I don't think that was the plan. 1545 01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:38,120 Speaker 3: But I'm telling you it has to be the he 1546 01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:41,960 Speaker 3: gear because when you see the video, there's no question 1547 01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:44,879 Speaker 3: Connor McGregor was throwing actual punches. 1548 01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:47,599 Speaker 2: I don't think he was trying to hurt this guy. 1549 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:50,479 Speaker 5: Well no, I mean gosh, because if he really wanted 1550 01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:54,120 Speaker 5: to hurt him, could you imagine the damage she could 1551 01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:54,280 Speaker 5: do it. 1552 01:13:54,320 --> 01:13:56,719 Speaker 4: I'm watching it right now and I'm. 1553 01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:00,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, geez, I thought. 1554 01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:02,040 Speaker 4: I think you're right. 1555 01:14:02,120 --> 01:14:03,639 Speaker 5: I think he kind of thought that, hey, I could 1556 01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:08,000 Speaker 5: do whatever I want and it's not going to hurt him. 1557 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:10,599 Speaker 5: And the very first punch dropped him. And I don't 1558 01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 5: think he was supposed to do that, to be honest 1559 01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:12,720 Speaker 5: with you, no. 1560 01:14:12,880 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 2: I don't either. I mean in the way it dropped 1561 01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:14,760 Speaker 2: him too. 1562 01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:16,840 Speaker 3: I'd be worried he got a concussion when he hit 1563 01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 3: the ground, because he just went down like a stone. 1564 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,120 Speaker 3: And then Connor immediately kind of advanced and then threw 1565 01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:24,240 Speaker 3: that straight shot to. 1566 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:28,240 Speaker 2: Him while he was down. Very brutal and vicious. The 1567 01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:30,599 Speaker 2: only thing worse was the punch that the Nuggets threw 1568 01:14:30,680 --> 01:14:32,679 Speaker 2: at the heat. You know, I gave them the three 1569 01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:33,320 Speaker 2: to one lead. 1570 01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:35,160 Speaker 5: I was gonna say this just real quick. I know 1571 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:37,680 Speaker 5: we're short on time. You know, I played pickup ball 1572 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:40,160 Speaker 5: when I was a kid. I was like about fifteen, 1573 01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 5: sixteen years old, and one of the guys was popping 1574 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,400 Speaker 5: off at another guy and he wanted to fight him, 1575 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:48,080 Speaker 5: and we said, dude, you don't want to fight this guy. 1576 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,400 Speaker 4: He goes, Dude, the guy's half my size. I go, 1577 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:52,640 Speaker 4: that's Ray Boom boom Mancini. 1578 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,599 Speaker 5: So unless you know how to box, man, I'd back 1579 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:57,439 Speaker 5: off if I were you. 1580 01:14:57,640 --> 01:14:58,320 Speaker 4: That's for sure. 1581 01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 2: We have buried the lead.

The end it is it 1625 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:32,720 Speaker 7: feels like a nightmare. You know, its like someone is 1626 01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:33,920 Speaker 7: talking to me in a nightmare. 1627 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 4: Well, first of all, you know, I mean everybody who 1628 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,640 Speaker 4: thinks that that's real obviously. First of all, it's kind 1629 01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 4: of disturbed. 1630 01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:40,799 Speaker 5: As a ten year old's not going to get a tattoo, 1631 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:43,479 Speaker 5: can't do that, and you know you're get to get. 1632 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:45,960 Speaker 4: To a part of this storylbum here. No, they get 1633 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:46,559 Speaker 4: into a part of a. 1634 01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:50,559 Speaker 5: Story every movie shouldn't be talking about, is what I'm saying. 1635 01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:53,519 Speaker 5: Because I saw the video and the kid was kind 1636 01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,479 Speaker 5: of scared during the hug, you know what I mean, 1637 01:17:56,520 --> 01:18:00,440 Speaker 5: he kind of turned sideways, and you know, I felt there. 1638 01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:02,760 Speaker 4: Kind of exploiting him. To be honest with you, and 1639 01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:03,880 Speaker 4: I didn't like the whole thing. 1640 01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:05,280 Speaker 5: I know, they want to have a little fun with 1641 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:09,400 Speaker 5: this tattoo and he stole his heart. But no, he 1642 01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:12,960 Speaker 5: looked like he was scared. She was a little aggressive. 1643 01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 5: You gotta come to school here. They were exploiting him. 1644 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,439 Speaker 5: I didn't like the whole video at all. To be 1645 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:21,479 Speaker 5: honest with you, guys, well, I. 1646 01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:24,840 Speaker 2: Do think that I don't know he was scared. I 1647 01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:26,680 Speaker 2: think it may have been intimidated. 1648 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,439 Speaker 7: I mean, he absolutely is being exploited. If you see 1649 01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 7: any quote at all from his dad, this is what 1650 01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,519 Speaker 7: we were thinking about LeVar Ball was this is him 1651 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:38,000 Speaker 7: just much worse. Like he's saying his kid's gonna be 1652 01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:40,640 Speaker 7: a millionaire and everything, like it's just well. 1653 01:18:40,400 --> 01:18:41,440 Speaker 4: You could be a millionaire. 1654 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, So that I think he says. So he's talking 1655 01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:46,080 Speaker 2: about you know, his son wants to play in the NFL, 1656 01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:49,960 Speaker 2: and I guess since he's six, people are talking about 1657 01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:52,120 Speaker 2: him and he's got the baby grown nickname and all 1658 01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 2: this other kind of stuff. But one thing that his 1659 01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:57,920 Speaker 2: dad does say is, you know, his goal is to 1660 01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:00,320 Speaker 2: go to the NFL, but the NFL is rare, and 1661 01:19:00,360 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 2: he calls the internet the new billboard. So this is 1662 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:03,479 Speaker 2: the quote from his dad. 1663 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 3: So my goal is to build him a platform and 1664 01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:07,840 Speaker 3: a following where he's making money now and is going 1665 01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:09,920 Speaker 3: into a savings account. That way he can live a 1666 01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:13,080 Speaker 3: good life without struggle or worry. It's the insurance behind sports. 1667 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:15,320 Speaker 3: You don't have to go pro anymore. Like Livy Dunn, 1668 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,439 Speaker 3: she's set for life already because of the Internet. 1669 01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:18,160 Speaker 2: Unquote. 1670 01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 3: That's interesting because there is some perspective in that he 1671 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:24,160 Speaker 3: just like he wants to play in the NFL, but 1672 01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 3: this kid's barely like a lot of people want to 1673 01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:27,759 Speaker 3: play in the NFL. 1674 01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:30,120 Speaker 7: He is putting up some interesting numbers as I've seen 1675 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:32,280 Speaker 7: in high school. So like, I think there is some 1676 01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 7: legitimate college interest. Yeah, there could be, like he's not 1677 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:38,360 Speaker 7: getting a visit to LSU just for being some kid 1678 01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:39,000 Speaker 7: on TikTok. 1679 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:40,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is interesting. 1680 01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:42,280 Speaker 3: But if you actually watch the video and the way 1681 01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:45,760 Speaker 3: Livy Done kind of talks to him, She's like, oh, 1682 01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 3: you the kid from the internet, You've got to come here. 1683 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,000 Speaker 2: It's awesome, and then calls him cute and then hugs him. Like. 1684 01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 3: The whole thing is very artificial, right, right, It's very 1685 01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:57,560 Speaker 3: artificial and very exploitive. 1686 01:19:57,760 --> 01:20:00,120 Speaker 2: I think that's fair. I also kind of think it's 1687 01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:01,479 Speaker 2: fun in its own way. 1688 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 3: I don't think we have to take it too seriously 1689 01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 3: when you look at all of this, all of this 1690 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:09,599 Speaker 3: stuff with influencers and everything else. When you take that seriously, 1691 01:20:09,640 --> 01:20:12,439 Speaker 3: we've lost our minds. So we talked a little football there. 1692 01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:17,480 Speaker 3: How about we talk some more football, Dalvincook, DeAndre Hopkins. 1693 01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:19,640 Speaker 2: Where are they gonna end up? All that? And more? 1694 01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:26,160 Speaker 2: Next our number three of fours. 1695 01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:28,840 Speaker 3: You still got half of our program to go.

The way tire buying should be a reminder. 1701 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 3: Our friend Bernie Frado, who follows us right here on 1702 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:49,800 Speaker 3: these Fox Sports radio airwaves. He will join us in 1703 01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:51,800 Speaker 3: the fourth hour of the show with the latest on 1704 01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:56,639 Speaker 3: the Vegas A's or not the Vegas A's, oh plenty 1705 01:20:56,680 --> 01:21:00,320 Speaker 3: on the NBA Finals in the NFL as well. 1706 01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:01,240 Speaker 2: Speaking of the. 1707 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:05,360 Speaker 3: NFL, Dalvin Cook is looking for a new home, and 1708 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:10,720 Speaker 3: if you look at the odds at presents your Dolphins, 1709 01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:18,080 Speaker 3: The Jets, the Bills, the Bengals are the four that 1710 01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:20,720 Speaker 3: are mentioned. I read an article about Cincinnati where look 1711 01:21:20,760 --> 01:21:23,120 Speaker 3: there in the top five now, But I kind of 1712 01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:26,519 Speaker 3: look at it and say, I mean, you've already got mixing. 1713 01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 3: As elusive as Cook is, the one thing Cook also 1714 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:31,719 Speaker 3: hasn't been. 1715 01:21:33,160 --> 01:21:36,200 Speaker 2: As much as you might want is healthy. Right, He's 1716 01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:38,680 Speaker 2: dealt with some injuries over the last few seasons. When 1717 01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:40,960 Speaker 2: he's out there, we know what he's capable of, Arnie. 1718 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,559 Speaker 2: But all right, So your Dolphins minus three hundred at 1719 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:49,920 Speaker 2: least according to the article I'm reading, How would you 1720 01:21:50,000 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 2: be if they were the team that landed Dalvin Cook? 1721 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:53,560 Speaker 4: Oh, I would love it. I've been wanting him for 1722 01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 4: the longest time, ever since we've heard the rumors. Look, 1723 01:21:56,240 --> 01:21:59,200 Speaker 4: I know they have like a stable of running backs 1724 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:04,519 Speaker 4: Motzer and Wilson and you know, Gasking, But to get 1725 01:22:04,600 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 4: Dovin Cook, I mean, I think they're gonna go to 1726 01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:09,160 Speaker 4: the super Bowl anyway. This would just solidify it. 1727 01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:11,800 Speaker 5: This is the type of explosive guy they haven't had 1728 01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:14,559 Speaker 5: in the backfield in a long long time. Go with 1729 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:18,599 Speaker 5: their receivers with Waddle and Hill and oh my goodness, 1730 01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:20,760 Speaker 5: they've got a offense that's just not going to stop. 1731 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:22,599 Speaker 4: So I would love for him to get him. 1732 01:22:22,600 --> 01:22:25,760 Speaker 5: Look, I know the Dolphins talk to them Minnesota about 1733 01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:27,599 Speaker 5: making a deal, but they didn't make a deal because 1734 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:29,479 Speaker 5: they didn't want them to pick up that that type 1735 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:32,200 Speaker 5: of money, like the nine million he's not gonna get, 1736 01:22:32,320 --> 01:22:34,360 Speaker 5: or maybe more than that. He's not gonna get as 1737 01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:37,320 Speaker 5: much as he thinks. But hopefully the Dolphins are able 1738 01:22:37,320 --> 01:22:39,160 Speaker 5: to get him. I don't think the Jets will get him, 1739 01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:43,000 Speaker 5: And I know Denver was interested. You know, obviously Dallas is, 1740 01:22:43,040 --> 01:22:46,679 Speaker 5: but they've got themselves a running back even without Ezekiel Elliott. 1741 01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:49,679 Speaker 5: So I still think the Dolphins are the front runners 1742 01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:50,160 Speaker 5: right now. 1743 01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:53,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I definitely think they're they're certainly the mix. 1744 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:57,000 Speaker 3: I do think Denver's probably in the mix, Javonte Williams 1745 01:22:57,040 --> 01:22:59,000 Speaker 3: comes back and could be what he look like he 1746 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,679 Speaker 3: was gonna be before the jury last year. I don't 1747 01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 3: know if you need to invest that kind of capital. 1748 01:23:04,560 --> 01:23:07,559 Speaker 3: But if you look into Dolphins, you've got Jeff Wilson, 1749 01:23:07,600 --> 01:23:08,639 Speaker 3: who's been hurt a good bit. 1750 01:23:09,160 --> 01:23:12,519 Speaker 2: You've got Raheem Moster who's hurt virtually every year, although 1751 01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:13,680 Speaker 2: he was pretty good last year. 1752 01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:15,559 Speaker 3: And then you've got a Chain who I really like 1753 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:18,280 Speaker 3: by the way out of Texas A and M. He 1754 01:23:18,400 --> 01:23:21,639 Speaker 3: was about the only bright spot to me on that club. 1755 01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:23,840 Speaker 3: Last year was not a good year, but he was 1756 01:23:23,880 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 3: awfully good. But I think the Dalvin Cook story is 1757 01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:34,200 Speaker 3: also instructive of where we find ourselves relative to running 1758 01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:37,519 Speaker 3: backs and their value in the National Football League GUARDY. 1759 01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:41,120 Speaker 3: When you really look at it, there's just not many 1760 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:45,280 Speaker 3: teams that are willing anymore to pony up big time 1761 01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:49,040 Speaker 3: dollars even to keep what you might consider, at least 1762 01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:51,760 Speaker 3: when they're healthy, almost generational talents at running back. 1763 01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:54,680 Speaker 2: The Vikings say, hey, man, Alexander Madison's been. 1764 01:23:54,640 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 3: Pretty good for us. We could do that a whole 1765 01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 3: lot cheaper than we can whatever you're asking for. So 1766 01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:02,720 Speaker 3: we're gonna send you out after six years, even though 1767 01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,559 Speaker 3: you're only twenty eight years old, right, right, and you've 1768 01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:08,360 Speaker 3: barely had fifteen hundred touches because you've dealt with some 1769 01:24:08,400 --> 01:24:11,479 Speaker 3: hell things and we've platooned you and things of that nature, 1770 01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:14,600 Speaker 3: and we've passed the ball and awful lot with Kirk Cousins. 1771 01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:19,200 Speaker 3: But when Cook's healthy, Cook's awfully dangerous. And I'm not 1772 01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 3: talking just on your fantasy team, like dudes, real good 1773 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,600 Speaker 3: when he's healthy. So assuming that, and maybe that's not 1774 01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:31,800 Speaker 3: the assumption you make, he could be very beneficial to 1775 01:24:31,880 --> 01:24:34,320 Speaker 3: a team. I mean, look at what Christian McCaffrey meant 1776 01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,080 Speaker 3: for San Francisco when they acquired him last year. 1777 01:24:37,120 --> 01:24:39,479 Speaker 2: They're not all Todd Gurley horror stories. 1778 01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 4: Oh no, it would be. Well, look at the Kansas 1779 01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:41,679 Speaker 4: City Chiefs. 1780 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:43,320 Speaker 5: They take a running back in with like the seventh 1781 01:24:43,400 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 5: rout out of Rutgers. Next thing you know, they're grooming 1782 01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 5: him to be the starter and take it over for 1783 01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:50,000 Speaker 5: their running back. 1784 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:51,599 Speaker 4: So yeah, you could. 1785 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:55,200 Speaker 5: You could replace a running back, even an unrestricted free 1786 01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 5: agent and aging running back. It's no longer one dominant back. 1787 01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:01,680 Speaker 5: It's running ba by committee. That's the way it is. 1788 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:04,720 Speaker 5: Right now, especially when you have seventeen games and it's 1789 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 5: only a matter of time before you go to eighteen games. 1790 01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:10,719 Speaker 5: You just can't have those days of one back carrying 1791 01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:12,120 Speaker 5: it through the entire season. 1792 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:15,280 Speaker 4: You've got to have like two to three good ones. 1793 01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:15,479 Speaker 2: You know. 1794 01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:17,280 Speaker 4: It's like pitching in Major League Baseball. 1795 01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 5: The more you have, the better you are, because if 1796 01:25:19,880 --> 01:25:22,320 Speaker 5: you think you're just gonna get through five starters, you're 1797 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 5: fooling yourself. 1798 01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:26,599 Speaker 4: And that that's what's going on with running backs right now. 1799 01:25:28,439 --> 01:25:31,760 Speaker 3: You mentioned Dallas. I really like Tony Pollard. I think 1800 01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:35,880 Speaker 3: that he's gonna get an expanded role, and I read 1801 01:25:35,880 --> 01:25:38,559 Speaker 3: that at NFL dot Com that they're certainly gonna give 1802 01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:41,160 Speaker 3: him the chance and give him the opportunity. I think 1803 01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:43,680 Speaker 3: maybe he should have had even more last year than 1804 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,200 Speaker 3: he did. They get Zeke out of there. I don't 1805 01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:48,719 Speaker 3: think you bring in a Dalvin Cook to split carries 1806 01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:52,280 Speaker 3: with Tony Pollard. I think that you you certainly add 1807 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:55,400 Speaker 3: some depth behind him, And I think right now who 1808 01:25:55,479 --> 01:25:58,720 Speaker 3: they have, they've got Ronald Jones, I think, and a 1809 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:02,280 Speaker 3: couple of other names. Maybe they beef up the backup 1810 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:04,600 Speaker 3: or beef up the third down back or something. I 1811 01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:07,120 Speaker 3: don't think that's a Dalvin Cook role now, the one 1812 01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:08,280 Speaker 3: that's intriguing to me. 1813 01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:10,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, and by the way, just correct me. 1814 01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:11,879 Speaker 2: My little brother plays in Buffalo. 1815 01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:13,000 Speaker 4: Right, No, you're right about that. 1816 01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:15,200 Speaker 5: But just the one thing about about Dallas is member 1817 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:17,680 Speaker 5: Tony Poward coming off a very bad injury. 1818 01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:19,400 Speaker 2: So that's true. 1819 01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 5: Let's let's not say that he's coming in one hundred 1820 01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:23,759 Speaker 5: percent and everything's going to be fine there. 1821 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:27,040 Speaker 4: That's still gonna be a question mark for the Dallas Cowboys. 1822 01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:28,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1823 01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:31,519 Speaker 3: I just don't. I don't think that you're bringing in him. 1824 01:26:31,680 --> 01:26:33,519 Speaker 3: I don't think you're bringing in Dalvin Cook. 1825 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:34,080 Speaker 2: Is a fail safe. 1826 01:26:34,280 --> 01:26:36,880 Speaker 3: You're right, it brings in Dalvin Cook. Is bringing in 1827 01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 3: Dalvin Cook to be Dalvin Cook. Yes, Like the Bills 1828 01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:44,120 Speaker 3: haven't had a running game in the Sean McDermott era. 1829 01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:48,519 Speaker 3: Basically they've got James Cook. He could be your third 1830 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 3: down guy, and then you can bring in Dalvin and 1831 01:26:50,240 --> 01:26:53,160 Speaker 3: he could be your main guy maybe and then certainly 1832 01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:55,519 Speaker 3: opportunity to play with his own brother and everything that 1833 01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:58,200 Speaker 3: could be advantageous to you. Right, and then you know, 1834 01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:02,599 Speaker 3: I've seen three teams actually mentioned from the AFC East, 1835 01:27:02,640 --> 01:27:04,280 Speaker 3: including your Dolphins. 1836 01:27:04,439 --> 01:27:07,360 Speaker 2: As well as the Jets going along with the Bills. 1837 01:27:08,320 --> 01:27:11,040 Speaker 3: The Saints have been mentioned because you know, Kamara is 1838 01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:14,559 Speaker 3: dealing with the court date and everything that's happening there, 1839 01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:18,320 Speaker 3: and there's just some flux. Finally within the Saints organization. 1840 01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:21,160 Speaker 3: Michael Thomas is coming back, but you've got Dennis Allen 1841 01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:23,480 Speaker 3: in year two, You've got Derek Carr. 1842 01:27:23,560 --> 01:27:24,639 Speaker 2: Entering in year one. 1843 01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 3: You do have some change over there, and maybe you 1844 01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:31,320 Speaker 3: take a look at it. But yeah, I mean, Dalvin 1845 01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:33,479 Speaker 3: Cook was one of those like top four, top five 1846 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:37,679 Speaker 3: running back guys that just seem like he could take 1847 01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 3: over a game at different. 1848 01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 2: Times, and still there's no value. 1849 01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:42,559 Speaker 3: You look at Dereck Henry right here where I do 1850 01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:46,679 Speaker 3: the show in Nashville, and he's not bothered by trade 1851 01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:50,000 Speaker 3: rumors according to reports. But he's been the subject to 1852 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:53,200 Speaker 3: trade rumors now for about most of most of the 1853 01:27:53,240 --> 01:27:57,439 Speaker 3: off season and even dating back because the physical toll 1854 01:27:58,280 --> 01:28:00,320 Speaker 3: and the way the skills. 1855 01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:01,879 Speaker 2: Degrade for most guys. 1856 01:28:02,160 --> 01:28:03,920 Speaker 4: Yes, it just it just. 1857 01:28:03,920 --> 01:28:06,559 Speaker 2: Doesn't back up paying them on a third contract, to 1858 01:28:06,600 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 2: be sure. 1859 01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,800 Speaker 4: No, and I love him. I would love to have 1860 01:28:09,880 --> 01:28:12,320 Speaker 4: him for the next two years to try to make 1861 01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 4: a Super Bowl run. But You're right about that. 1862 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:18,040 Speaker 5: He just doesn't warrant that type of money anymore. He's 1863 01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 5: really carried the load. Nobody's carried them all more times 1864 01:28:21,439 --> 01:28:24,080 Speaker 5: than him the last couple of years. So even though 1865 01:28:24,120 --> 01:28:27,000 Speaker 5: he's missed a couple of games, he is he's got 1866 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:31,000 Speaker 5: to be certainly, you know, I mean, how many more 1867 01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:33,000 Speaker 5: years is that guy going to take a pounding like that. 1868 01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:34,559 Speaker 5: It's got to be tough for him right. 1869 01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:37,080 Speaker 2: Now for sure. I mean, he's just a different guy. 1870 01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:38,679 Speaker 2: He's built differently. 1871 01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:41,599 Speaker 3: We all knew that he came back off the injury 1872 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:44,200 Speaker 3: was still awfully good for a team that wasn't particularly good, 1873 01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:47,000 Speaker 3: especially on the offensive side of the football. He's just 1874 01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:48,439 Speaker 3: he's just a different guy. 1875 01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:51,880 Speaker 2: But so cook Is has taken up some headlines and 1876 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:53,439 Speaker 2: now Hopkins is starting to visit. 1877 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:56,600 Speaker 3: DeAndre Hopkins. He's gonna be right here actually speaking with 1878 01:28:56,640 --> 01:29:00,439 Speaker 3: the Titans. I think tomorrow that he's gonna go to England. 1879 01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:03,719 Speaker 3: He's gonna talk to the Patriots. He's thirty one years 1880 01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:06,639 Speaker 3: old entering the season. He's coming off basically a completely 1881 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:09,320 Speaker 3: wasted year. He missed the first six games of the 1882 01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:12,879 Speaker 3: year because of the suspension, and he played for the Cardinals, 1883 01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:16,639 Speaker 3: which basically meant he missed the entire season because it 1884 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 3: was just a disaster from day one. He was a 1885 01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:22,759 Speaker 3: disaster from call of duty Kyler all the way through 1886 01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:26,840 Speaker 3: to Cliff in Thailand or wherever it was he ended 1887 01:29:26,920 --> 01:29:30,519 Speaker 3: up and everything else. DeAndre Hopkins could still play. 1888 01:29:31,720 --> 01:29:34,200 Speaker 5: I'm glad you told me that, because I'm letting you know, 1889 01:29:34,240 --> 01:29:34,880 Speaker 5: I'm letting you go. 1890 01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:35,720 Speaker 4: Thank you. 1891 01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:41,599 Speaker 2: He's gonna be I've seen the Browns mentioned, I've seen 1892 01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:44,799 Speaker 2: the Patriots of course mentioned. I immediately thought of the Titans, 1893 01:29:44,800 --> 01:29:46,960 Speaker 2: because when you lose AJ Brown, they've got to have 1894 01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:49,240 Speaker 2: a receiver. But I also look at that, and I say, 1895 01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:53,920 Speaker 2: Hopkins joining a team where the quarterback situation is very 1896 01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:56,599 Speaker 2: much in flux. You've got a brand new general manager. 1897 01:29:57,160 --> 01:29:59,479 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's gonna be where he wants 1898 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 2: to be, even though I think he could be a 1899 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:05,120 Speaker 2: good fit. Who do you like with DeAndre Hopkins right now? 1900 01:30:05,200 --> 01:30:07,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm taking a hard pass on DeAndre Hopkins. 1901 01:30:07,920 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 4: Thank you very much, Jason. 1902 01:30:09,520 --> 01:30:11,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I appreciate you telling me that he could still play, 1903 01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:13,920 Speaker 5: because I don't think I would have been able to 1904 01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:15,720 Speaker 5: figure because I don't think he can still play at 1905 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:17,599 Speaker 5: that level, and I don't want to give him that 1906 01:30:17,640 --> 01:30:18,320 Speaker 5: type of money. 1907 01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:19,320 Speaker 4: I need to go ahead. 1908 01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:23,640 Speaker 5: There's a lot of young rookie type wide receivers, you 1909 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:25,360 Speaker 5: know that you could have gotten in the draft the 1910 01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:28,200 Speaker 5: last but two three years, a lot of young ones 1911 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:32,400 Speaker 5: out there. Certainly we're ready to go ahead and break 1912 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 5: on out and have big years. I'm gonna go in 1913 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:38,479 Speaker 5: a hard pass on DeAndre Hopkins and go in a 1914 01:30:38,479 --> 01:30:39,200 Speaker 5: younger direction. 1915 01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:43,480 Speaker 2: Now, okay, so what is your objection to DeAndre Hopkins? 1916 01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 5: Well, it's not so much a direction. I think I'd 1917 01:30:46,360 --> 01:30:49,560 Speaker 5: just rather go with younger players. Also, how much is 1918 01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:52,840 Speaker 5: it going to cost me? What's the contract that's going 1919 01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:55,479 Speaker 5: to cost me? And three, the only reason I would 1920 01:30:55,479 --> 01:30:57,880 Speaker 5: bring him in was it was the missing piece that 1921 01:30:57,960 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 5: I was going to get to go ahead and make 1922 01:30:59,400 --> 01:31:02,479 Speaker 5: a Super Bowl running. A vi'sa missing beat and wide receiver, 1923 01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:04,400 Speaker 5: then you aren't gonna make a super Bowl run. 1924 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:08,280 Speaker 2: I mean, his hands are about as good as we've 1925 01:31:08,280 --> 01:31:13,040 Speaker 2: ever seen. He's thirty one, not thirty five, right, he 1926 01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:16,200 Speaker 2: it hadn't been as much injuries throughout his career. He's 1927 01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:18,840 Speaker 2: had a few, but it was you know, he had 1928 01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:21,400 Speaker 2: the judgment issue and cast him some games. Last year. 1929 01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:24,280 Speaker 2: He was in a terrible situation in Arizona after also 1930 01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:27,639 Speaker 2: dealing with Bill O'Brien at the beginning of his career. 1931 01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:30,040 Speaker 2: So he's been behind the eight ball pretty. 1932 01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:32,400 Speaker 3: Much the entire time. I look at it and I'm 1933 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,960 Speaker 3: just like, there are some there are a lot of teams. 1934 01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:36,400 Speaker 3: He's gonna make a better. It's to make just about 1935 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:37,120 Speaker 3: anybody better. 1936 01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:39,720 Speaker 5: I could probably come up with about thirty receivers I'd 1937 01:31:39,800 --> 01:31:40,720 Speaker 5: rather have than him. 1938 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:41,879 Speaker 2: Are you serious? 1939 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm actually looking at it right now, so that yeah, 1940 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:45,360 Speaker 4: I am very. 1941 01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:47,840 Speaker 2: Give me start listing guys. You would tell them. 1942 01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:49,080 Speaker 4: I would just tell you this. 1943 01:31:49,280 --> 01:31:53,240 Speaker 5: They had a Cooper Cup at number thirty six, So 1944 01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 5: I don't know what this is in receiving yards. So 1945 01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:58,920 Speaker 5: if you're telling me de Andre Hopkins is better than 1946 01:31:58,960 --> 01:32:02,840 Speaker 5: Cooper Cup, I'll argue to my death on that one. 1947 01:32:02,880 --> 01:32:07,600 Speaker 5: But you know, justin Jefferson, Tyreek Hill, Devonte Adams and A. J. 1948 01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:15,080 Speaker 5: Brown and Stefan Diggs, Ceedee Lamb Wattle, Kelsey Devonte Smith. Yeah, 1949 01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:18,400 Speaker 5: so right now, you know Saint Brown for. 1950 01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:20,400 Speaker 4: Detroit. 1951 01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:23,080 Speaker 2: Uh, there's at least four or five guys you just 1952 01:32:23,160 --> 01:32:25,280 Speaker 2: named that I would take Hopkins over every one of them. 1953 01:32:25,400 --> 01:32:27,400 Speaker 5: Well, that's why I thank goodness you're not a GM 1954 01:32:27,439 --> 01:32:30,000 Speaker 5: in my team? 1955 01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:31,960 Speaker 2: What's yours? 1956 01:32:32,040 --> 01:32:35,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like aren't. 1957 01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:37,800 Speaker 7: He's ignoring the point that none of those guys he 1958 01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:39,160 Speaker 7: mentioned are also available. 1959 01:32:39,680 --> 01:32:41,559 Speaker 4: No, no of them are available, right, No, But I'm 1960 01:32:41,600 --> 01:32:45,920 Speaker 4: just like a Jamar Chase all all these Wilson. No 1961 01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:48,519 Speaker 4: I know that, But these are all players that I'm 1962 01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:52,640 Speaker 4: saying are better than a DeAndre Hopkins. And you know 1963 01:32:52,800 --> 01:32:55,559 Speaker 4: who knows if you can't find somebody like a diamond 1964 01:32:55,640 --> 01:32:57,240 Speaker 4: and rough that's a fraction of the cost. 1965 01:32:57,320 --> 01:33:02,120 Speaker 2: Also better this year or better four or five years 1966 01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:02,519 Speaker 2: from now? 1967 01:33:03,040 --> 01:33:05,120 Speaker 5: Well, could be both, but probably more than four to 1968 01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:07,840 Speaker 5: five years. Do you tell me what team is on 1969 01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:10,320 Speaker 5: the verge of going to the super Bowl? That's one 1970 01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:12,960 Speaker 5: wide receiver away, Baltimore. 1971 01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 4: Maybe I think they need that. First of all, you 1972 01:33:15,880 --> 01:33:17,559 Speaker 4: know they still have Lamar Jackson. I don't know if 1973 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:20,200 Speaker 4: you found If you didn't know that, I'll excuse you 1974 01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:20,599 Speaker 4: on that. 1975 01:33:20,680 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 2: Then I'm aware of it. But they don't. 1976 01:33:22,439 --> 01:33:24,920 Speaker 4: Well, didn't forget about it then? And if as long 1977 01:33:24,960 --> 01:33:27,479 Speaker 4: as they got him, No, Look, I. 1978 01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:28,960 Speaker 2: Don't know what Lamar's is gonna do. 1979 01:33:29,000 --> 01:33:31,479 Speaker 3: And I'm reticent to buy into it, but at least 1980 01:33:31,479 --> 01:33:33,799 Speaker 3: they don't have Greg Roman calling plays anymore. 1981 01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:36,880 Speaker 5: That I give you that that you're one hundred percent right, 1982 01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:38,360 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go ahead and give you on that one. 1983 01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:40,439 Speaker 3: I mean a lot of people dogged out Lamar and 1984 01:33:40,479 --> 01:33:42,519 Speaker 3: didn't mention the fact that Greg Roman was running the 1985 01:33:42,520 --> 01:33:44,200 Speaker 3: same offense he ran twenty years ago. 1986 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:47,559 Speaker 2: Hard they did it wasn't. Yeah, it's absolutely awful. And 1987 01:33:47,640 --> 01:33:49,880 Speaker 2: so this year he's got a new coordinator who's actually 1988 01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:52,599 Speaker 2: letting him call audibles and do things, and of course 1989 01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:54,200 Speaker 2: he's paid. I want to see how he plays. 1990 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:58,280 Speaker 3: I'm fascinated to watch the Ravens this year, I really am. 1991 01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:00,720 Speaker 3: I just say what they have never had is a 1992 01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:04,200 Speaker 3: top flight number one wide receiver, which is why I 1993 01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:07,920 Speaker 3: say if they're a trendy pick in some eyes to 1994 01:34:08,160 --> 01:34:11,519 Speaker 3: make a big time run this year, then they're the 1995 01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:14,679 Speaker 3: kind of team that could benefit from a DeAndre Hopkins style, 1996 01:34:15,560 --> 01:34:19,600 Speaker 3: you know, true number one wide out, surehanded guy that 1997 01:34:19,680 --> 01:34:21,520 Speaker 3: could really enhance. 1998 01:34:21,280 --> 01:34:23,960 Speaker 2: What Lamar Jackson can do throwing the football. The one 1999 01:34:23,960 --> 01:34:26,360 Speaker 2: place I don't want to see him go, yeah, is 2000 01:34:26,400 --> 01:34:29,559 Speaker 2: where's Clemson Brethren is throwing the football? Because I still 2001 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:31,879 Speaker 2: have no interest in seeing Deshan Watson play football. 2002 01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:36,160 Speaker 5: Oh well, you know, and supposedly he's looking good. I'm 2003 01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:38,479 Speaker 5: gonna be curious to see what he's gonna be able 2004 01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:39,200 Speaker 5: to go ahead and put up. 2005 01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:41,080 Speaker 4: I'm I'm real curious on that one. 2006 01:34:41,120 --> 01:34:46,040 Speaker 5: As for Baltimore, yeah, they could certainly use a DeAndre Hopkins. 2007 01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:47,280 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go and give you that, but I don't 2008 01:34:47,320 --> 01:34:50,920 Speaker 5: think they're one step away from really going to the 2009 01:34:50,960 --> 01:34:51,559 Speaker 5: super Bowl. 2010 01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:54,160 Speaker 4: Actually, they're wide receiver deficient. 2011 01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:55,920 Speaker 5: I'm curious to see if they're gonna go make any 2012 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,920 Speaker 5: moves or scour the waiver wire once cam start opening. 2013 01:34:59,640 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 3: Up, you somebody's gonna they're they're definitely gonna have to 2014 01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:05,280 Speaker 3: do that as we go to break. I screened The 2015 01:35:05,320 --> 01:35:09,040 Speaker 3: Flash a few days ago, and I could not like 2016 01:35:09,200 --> 01:35:09,600 Speaker 3: watching it. 2017 01:35:09,680 --> 01:35:11,280 Speaker 2: I enjoyed the film. 2018 01:35:11,760 --> 01:35:13,880 Speaker 3: You know, Ezra Miller's in It was Ezra Miller's There's 2019 01:35:13,920 --> 01:35:16,320 Speaker 3: a lot of controversy surrounding Ezra Miller. I'm not even 2020 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:18,280 Speaker 3: sure that movie should have come out. Quite frankly, they 2021 01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:20,680 Speaker 3: should have just canned it and recast it and do 2022 01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:22,120 Speaker 3: it again. I know it would have cost a lot 2023 01:35:22,160 --> 01:35:26,040 Speaker 3: of money, but you couldn't not think about Ezra Miller's 2024 01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:30,080 Speaker 3: reality while watching what was happening on screen in this 2025 01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:33,559 Speaker 3: otherwise pretty decent movie. I kind of feel the same 2026 01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:36,040 Speaker 3: way about Deshaun Watson, Like and I think Ezra. 2027 01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:38,160 Speaker 2: Miller's really good in the movie. I think Deshaun Watson's 2028 01:35:38,200 --> 01:35:39,599 Speaker 2: a really solid football player. 2029 01:35:39,640 --> 01:35:41,280 Speaker 3: But I can't get it out of my head. I'm 2030 01:35:41,320 --> 01:35:42,920 Speaker 3: just not ready for it yet. I don't know if 2031 01:35:42,960 --> 01:35:47,519 Speaker 3: I'm ever going to be. That's a tough one to 2032 01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:51,639 Speaker 3: look at. You actually mentioned this as a topic when 2033 01:35:51,680 --> 01:35:55,960 Speaker 3: we come back.

Welcome back Fox Sports Saturday. 2048 01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:47,120 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio. It's actually Fox Sports Sunday. I guess 2049 01:36:47,120 --> 01:36:47,599 Speaker 3: if you're. 2050 01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:52,880 Speaker 2: On the East coast, we are in the Tyraq dot 2051 01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:55,960 Speaker 2: com studios. I'm Jason Martin. Arn'ty Spaniard with me. He's 2052 01:36:56,000 --> 01:37:00,639 Speaker 2: on Twitter at Stinking Genius one. I'm at our radio. 2053 01:37:00,800 --> 01:37:04,880 Speaker 2: We're at Fox Sports Radio, all right, NFL because it's 2054 01:37:04,960 --> 01:37:06,920 Speaker 2: right around the corner. Yeah, and so we can talk 2055 01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:07,719 Speaker 2: about it, we can. 2056 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:11,160 Speaker 3: Act like it's tomorrow. It actually much especially with no 2057 01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:15,719 Speaker 3: NBA game. Bounce back player. We talked about the Comeback 2058 01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:17,519 Speaker 3: Player of the Year a lot of times. That's somebody 2059 01:37:17,520 --> 01:37:19,360 Speaker 3: coming back from an injury, and maybe that's going to 2060 01:37:19,400 --> 01:37:22,400 Speaker 3: be the story here. But bounce back player, I think 2061 01:37:22,439 --> 01:37:24,680 Speaker 3: maybe you could define more as just somebody that had 2062 01:37:24,720 --> 01:37:29,599 Speaker 3: a crummy twenty twenty two, right, and it's coming back 2063 01:37:29,640 --> 01:37:36,080 Speaker 3: from that potentially to kind of redefine their career after 2064 01:37:36,120 --> 01:37:38,800 Speaker 3: a bad year or a bad stretch or something like that. 2065 01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:43,519 Speaker 3: So possibilities along those lines. I guess you could start 2066 01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:44,479 Speaker 3: with Russell Wilson. 2067 01:37:44,800 --> 01:37:47,120 Speaker 4: Oh geez, you have to right, Well, if we're going 2068 01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:49,799 Speaker 4: to start there, I just want to say his career 2069 01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:52,719 Speaker 4: is done. It's over. He's not bouncing back from anything. Now. 2070 01:37:53,240 --> 01:37:56,240 Speaker 5: We'll see if Sean Payton makes any difference whatsoever, and 2071 01:37:56,320 --> 01:37:58,800 Speaker 5: it may very well, but I just don't think he's 2072 01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:02,840 Speaker 5: got anything left of the town. And you know, maybe 2073 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:05,640 Speaker 5: we kind of overestimated him just to Tad and he 2074 01:38:05,760 --> 01:38:08,280 Speaker 5: had those Super Bowl runs and now it's time to 2075 01:38:08,320 --> 01:38:10,320 Speaker 5: move on. He just doesn't seem like he's the same 2076 01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:11,600 Speaker 5: Russell Wilson evolved. 2077 01:38:11,760 --> 01:38:13,680 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, let's see what he does look like 2078 01:38:13,720 --> 01:38:17,080 Speaker 2: with Sean Payton and what they do last year. All 2079 01:38:17,120 --> 01:38:18,360 Speaker 2: the red flags you could want. 2080 01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:20,479 Speaker 3: You had Garrett Bowles aligneman for the Broncos come out 2081 01:38:20,520 --> 01:38:22,080 Speaker 3: and basically say he's gonna make fools of all the 2082 01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:26,160 Speaker 3: people that say he's washed, right, And my response to 2083 01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:30,520 Speaker 3: that is, as long as Garrett Bowles plays for the Broncos, 2084 01:38:30,560 --> 01:38:34,080 Speaker 3: there's not another response that he would have if asked 2085 01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:35,320 Speaker 3: about Russell Wilson than that. 2086 01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:36,599 Speaker 2: It's not like. 2087 01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:40,960 Speaker 3: He's going to say Russ is done as long as 2088 01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:43,519 Speaker 3: he's a Bronco. Now after he leaves, maybe he would 2089 01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:46,040 Speaker 3: maybe not even then, maybe he's being diplomatic about it. 2090 01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:49,320 Speaker 3: But I wouldn't look at his own linemen and say, oh, well, 2091 01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:52,640 Speaker 3: russ is definitely gonna cook again because of that, Like, 2092 01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:54,760 Speaker 3: there's not another thing that you would say the same 2093 01:38:54,760 --> 01:38:58,000 Speaker 3: thing as when I guess it was Matt Ruhle talked 2094 01:38:58,040 --> 01:39:00,839 Speaker 3: about how cam Newton was gonna be there long term 2095 01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:03,080 Speaker 3: or whatever else and all this kind of stuff. It's like, well, 2096 01:39:03,120 --> 01:39:04,920 Speaker 3: as long as he's there, you're not going to talk 2097 01:39:04,960 --> 01:39:08,040 Speaker 3: about how he's gone next week, right, That's not how 2098 01:39:08,040 --> 01:39:08,599 Speaker 3: that works. 2099 01:39:08,920 --> 01:39:12,080 Speaker 2: There's a certain tack to it. There's a certain method 2100 01:39:12,160 --> 01:39:17,360 Speaker 2: to the madness there. But Russell Wilson definitely on that list. 2101 01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:19,559 Speaker 2: Who will be next on the list? Who else would 2102 01:39:19,560 --> 01:39:20,400 Speaker 2: you mention on that list? 2103 01:39:20,439 --> 01:39:22,519 Speaker 4: Well, Ezekiel Elliott, there's no doubt about that. 2104 01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:25,320 Speaker 5: I mean everybody's he's gone steadily down and I would 2105 01:39:25,360 --> 01:39:29,000 Speaker 5: say the last three years or two to three years. 2106 01:39:29,479 --> 01:39:33,200 Speaker 5: And you know, money aside, forget about if you could 2107 01:39:33,200 --> 01:39:35,599 Speaker 5: sign him for a million a year or six million 2108 01:39:35,640 --> 01:39:37,559 Speaker 5: a year or whatever he's going to demand on the 2109 01:39:37,960 --> 01:39:42,360 Speaker 5: on the on the market there. He's really really lost 2110 01:39:42,400 --> 01:39:47,320 Speaker 5: the step we're talking about in his speed, his elusiveness. Look, 2111 01:39:47,360 --> 01:39:50,640 Speaker 5: he can still be part of a combo team to 2112 01:39:50,720 --> 01:39:51,280 Speaker 5: help you out. 2113 01:39:51,479 --> 01:39:52,840 Speaker 4: I've got no problem there. 2114 01:39:53,280 --> 01:39:55,200 Speaker 5: But there's a lot of other running backs that are 2115 01:39:55,200 --> 01:39:58,840 Speaker 5: better than him in the NFL, and I'm not so 2116 01:39:58,880 --> 01:40:01,120 Speaker 5: sure I go to go ahead and sign him. 2117 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:01,519 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2118 01:40:01,560 --> 01:40:04,120 Speaker 3: Look, I'm skeptical that Zeke is ever going to be 2119 01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:07,840 Speaker 3: anything like what we saw about three years ago. He's 2120 01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:11,720 Speaker 3: gonna be twenty eight going into the year, so technically 2121 01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:13,160 Speaker 3: he could still have a couple. 2122 01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:16,000 Speaker 2: Of good years. But to your point, he definitely is 2123 01:40:16,040 --> 01:40:17,280 Speaker 2: not as fast as he used to be. 2124 01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:18,559 Speaker 4: No, especially not. 2125 01:40:18,520 --> 01:40:20,720 Speaker 2: In the open field. He's a power runner now he's 2126 01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:22,760 Speaker 2: more of a short yardage guy, and he can't catch 2127 01:40:22,800 --> 01:40:24,479 Speaker 2: the ball out of the backfield for you as well. 2128 01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:29,599 Speaker 2: There is value there, but if I'm signing Zeke had 2129 01:40:29,600 --> 01:40:31,560 Speaker 2: better be for the right price, and I don't know 2130 01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:33,559 Speaker 2: if you can get Zeke for the right price yet, 2131 01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:37,400 Speaker 2: so I imagine I would be passing on Zeke. I say, 2132 01:40:37,439 --> 01:40:39,960 Speaker 2: he's certainly a candidate for this, I don't think he 2133 01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:42,200 Speaker 2: will ultimately be the one that we're talking about at 2134 01:40:42,200 --> 01:40:44,240 Speaker 2: the end of the year being the bounce back player 2135 01:40:44,240 --> 01:40:46,920 Speaker 2: of the year. How about some of the quarterbacks. 2136 01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:52,559 Speaker 3: Derek Carr not a great year for him obviously with 2137 01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:56,439 Speaker 3: the Raiders announced with the Saints, Trey Lance, we know 2138 01:40:56,479 --> 01:40:57,880 Speaker 3: how that's gone so far. 2139 01:40:58,560 --> 01:41:00,800 Speaker 5: Well, just on that, I don't if Trey Lance is 2140 01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:02,600 Speaker 5: actually going to get that much of an opportunity to 2141 01:41:02,600 --> 01:41:04,960 Speaker 5: compare to everybody else out there, especially if Frank Party 2142 01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:08,639 Speaker 5: from what we're hearing, maybe ready now for opening Day. 2143 01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:10,559 Speaker 5: As for car he might be the best of the 2144 01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:13,519 Speaker 5: bunch that bounces back really strong. You're going to a 2145 01:41:14,160 --> 01:41:18,080 Speaker 5: division that's certainly not as tough as yours. Uh, certainly 2146 01:41:18,360 --> 01:41:22,880 Speaker 5: a good franchise. You know, you'll have more weapons around 2147 01:41:22,880 --> 01:41:25,519 Speaker 5: you than you certainly had with Las Vegas. I think 2148 01:41:25,520 --> 01:41:27,719 Speaker 5: it could be a good opportunity for him to bounce 2149 01:41:27,800 --> 01:41:28,280 Speaker 5: back there. 2150 01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:30,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think that. I think it's very possible. 2151 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:32,680 Speaker 3: I also think the guy that replaced him, Jimmy G 2152 01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:36,839 Speaker 3: is another guy that you could mention in this situation. 2153 01:41:37,960 --> 01:41:39,360 Speaker 3: But he didn't want to be where he. 2154 01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:41,519 Speaker 5: Was, but he and he was still injured, just he 2155 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:44,960 Speaker 5: had the private I should see. Yeah, I know, but 2156 01:41:45,240 --> 01:41:47,479 Speaker 5: I'm not so sure. Jimmy G is going to bounce 2157 01:41:47,520 --> 01:41:49,360 Speaker 5: on back. I don't think the Raiders really have a 2158 01:41:49,439 --> 01:41:52,960 Speaker 5: very good team. They're smelling five and twelve right off 2159 01:41:53,000 --> 01:41:56,760 Speaker 5: the bat. It just seems like during disarray. I don't think, 2160 01:41:57,240 --> 01:41:58,840 Speaker 5: you know, because of those reasons, he's going to have 2161 01:41:58,840 --> 01:41:59,559 Speaker 5: a pretty good year. 2162 01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:00,000 Speaker 4: I don't think. 2163 01:42:00,320 --> 01:42:02,479 Speaker 3: I'm not assuming Zeki is either. I'm just saying he's 2164 01:42:02,520 --> 01:42:05,080 Speaker 3: definitely a candidate, Oh for sure. Definitely somebody that could 2165 01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:05,759 Speaker 3: be on the list. 2166 01:42:06,320 --> 01:42:06,679 Speaker 4: For sure. 2167 01:42:07,200 --> 01:42:10,080 Speaker 2: Lamar's last year because of. 2168 01:42:10,040 --> 01:42:12,559 Speaker 3: How it all played out and just they played out 2169 01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:15,360 Speaker 3: in public last couple of years. Yeah, that's true, and 2170 01:42:15,400 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 3: of course not very much success in the postseason. I 2171 01:42:18,280 --> 01:42:20,280 Speaker 3: think you could include him here, but I think he 2172 01:42:20,320 --> 01:42:20,960 Speaker 3: would be more of. 2173 01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:26,320 Speaker 2: A penthouse option. Deshaun Watson. I know I mentioned him 2174 01:42:26,360 --> 01:42:28,519 Speaker 2: in the last second, but that's the very definition of 2175 01:42:28,520 --> 01:42:31,639 Speaker 2: somebody that looked terrible pretty much the second he came 2176 01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:34,000 Speaker 2: back through the last snap that he played. 2177 01:42:34,160 --> 01:42:36,480 Speaker 4: He was miserable, absolutely miserable. 2178 01:42:36,479 --> 01:42:38,519 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm laughing at that contract that they gave 2179 01:42:38,600 --> 01:42:40,960 Speaker 5: him based on what we saw last year. Now, you 2180 01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:44,240 Speaker 5: can't get much worse than where you than what you were, 2181 01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:47,759 Speaker 5: but enough to go ahead to certainly verify that contract. 2182 01:42:47,760 --> 01:42:50,320 Speaker 5: Though that's not going to happen. He'll have a little 2183 01:42:50,360 --> 01:42:51,600 Speaker 5: bit of a better year, but I don't know how 2184 01:42:51,680 --> 01:42:53,040 Speaker 5: much that's going to make the Browns better. 2185 01:42:53,080 --> 01:42:55,559 Speaker 3: To be honest with you, there No, I don't know either, 2186 01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:57,400 Speaker 3: the only other one, and I don't think there's a 2187 01:42:57,479 --> 01:42:58,840 Speaker 3: chance in this guy. I think they might be the 2188 01:42:58,840 --> 01:43:03,840 Speaker 3: worst team in the league. I think that's going in 2189 01:43:03,840 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 3: the wrong direction, not the right direction. But if he 2190 01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:07,680 Speaker 3: were to come out and have a great year, that 2191 01:43:07,720 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 3: would be the very definition of bounce back, because I 2192 01:43:09,800 --> 01:43:11,479 Speaker 3: don't think a soul sees that coming. 2193 01:43:11,720 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 5: Well, when's he coming back? Let's go ahead and start 2194 01:43:14,040 --> 01:43:15,759 Speaker 5: with there. I don't even know when that's gonna happens. 2195 01:43:15,720 --> 01:43:16,240 Speaker 6: A fair point. 2196 01:43:16,760 --> 01:43:19,280 Speaker 3: I mean, that's like I said, I'm just mentioning guys 2197 01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:22,040 Speaker 3: that could be on the list. He's definitely not somebody 2198 01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:25,439 Speaker 3: I anticipate having a particularly good year. 2199 01:43:25,479 --> 01:43:26,519 Speaker 2: That's gonna be just. 2200 01:43:26,520 --> 01:43:31,360 Speaker 3: A rough year, a rough year out in Arizona. Let's 2201 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:33,360 Speaker 3: go to the saga. Let's catch a look at the 2202 01:43:33,479 --> 01:43:35,360 Speaker 3: latest in the world of sports. 2203 01:43:34,960 --> 01:43:38,000 Speaker 2: Including I don't think that the Angels have scored since 2204 01:43:38,120 --> 01:43:39,280 Speaker 2: they scored the first time. 2205 01:43:39,360 --> 01:43:41,840 Speaker 10: It's just so Tany's home run and that's their only 2206 01:43:41,880 --> 01:43:44,040 Speaker 10: scoring and they're down six to two to the Mariners 2207 01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:46,439 Speaker 10: in the bottom of the seventh. Aside from that two 2208 01:43:46,560 --> 01:43:49,960 Speaker 10: run shot, the Angel offense is four for twenty four. 2209 01:43:50,560 --> 01:43:52,960 Speaker 10: Angels have a five game winning streak on the line. 2210 01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:55,120 Speaker 10: We will get to more pro baseball in a moment. 2211 01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:58,360 Speaker 10: We have talked earlier about college baseball and the incredible 2212 01:43:58,520 --> 01:43:59,320 Speaker 10: or wrong comeback. 2213 01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:01,559 Speaker 4: I saw this, I saw the end the algred. 2214 01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:04,320 Speaker 10: This is the best of three Super Regionals weekend.

I will say that 2275 01:47:14,479 --> 01:47:16,840 Speaker 10: the three Triple Crown races, even if it's not a 2276 01:47:16,880 --> 01:47:19,920 Speaker 10: Triple Crown winning year by a horse, usually do pretty 2277 01:47:19,920 --> 01:47:24,320 Speaker 10: well in the ratings. And although it was technically daytime 2278 01:47:24,360 --> 01:47:27,320 Speaker 10: in a lot of regions of the country, it was 2279 01:47:27,360 --> 01:47:31,599 Speaker 10: a seven pm Eastern time race in New York, and 2280 01:47:31,640 --> 01:47:34,000 Speaker 10: the Stanley Cups on cable this year for the final. 2281 01:47:34,120 --> 01:47:37,519 Speaker 10: So there is that geez back to you, and. 2282 01:47:37,360 --> 01:47:39,920 Speaker 4: It's you know, Vegas and Florida looking he got all 2283 01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:42,720 Speaker 4: the tennis themes right too. Way to go to Seger. 2284 01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:45,320 Speaker 10: Can I mention on that front because I watched the 2285 01:47:45,360 --> 01:47:48,240 Speaker 10: beginning of the tennis today of Maria Taylor. I think 2286 01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:50,120 Speaker 10: people are aware she got a lot of money to 2287 01:47:50,160 --> 01:47:53,040 Speaker 10: leave ESPN and now she's like one of the faces 2288 01:47:53,080 --> 01:47:57,559 Speaker 10: of hosting major events for NBC and that includes something 2289 01:47:57,600 --> 01:48:00,479 Speaker 10: that NBC's had for many years, the French Open the 2290 01:48:00,520 --> 01:48:04,280 Speaker 10: final today, she's on for literally only two three minutes 2291 01:48:04,320 --> 01:48:07,639 Speaker 10: at the beginning, and she blew two names in tennis. 2292 01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:12,160 Speaker 10: How is this possible? The trophy name for Suzanne Longluan, 2293 01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:15,799 Speaker 10: who's the greatest French player ever, mispronounced that. She mentioned 2294 01:48:15,840 --> 01:48:18,599 Speaker 10: the number two seed who just won the Australian Open 2295 01:48:18,640 --> 01:48:22,400 Speaker 10: to start this year the first major arena, Sablenka. There 2296 01:48:22,439 --> 01:48:25,000 Speaker 10: is no I in her name. She called her irena. 2297 01:48:25,800 --> 01:48:28,719 Speaker 10: This is astounding to me when you are literally making 2298 01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:32,880 Speaker 10: millions of dollars per year and you it's to talk 2299 01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:35,639 Speaker 10: about tennis today and you're only gonna talk to three 2300 01:48:35,680 --> 01:48:38,640 Speaker 10: minutes and that happened. That that's amazy. 2301 01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:40,599 Speaker 4: I love that nice. 2302 01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:44,880 Speaker 2: Well, that's that's good money they spent. That's very obvious. 2303 01:48:44,960 --> 01:48:47,640 Speaker 2: What's coming up in We got the extended segment with 2304 01:48:47,680 --> 01:48:49,160 Speaker 2: you coming up, Danie how Er, What do you got 2305 01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:49,559 Speaker 2: for us? 2306 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:52,719 Speaker 10: We will mention the Oakland A's and it's actually positive news. 2307 01:48:52,800 --> 01:48:55,960 Speaker 10: These days. We'll also get into a little more detail 2308 01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:59,240 Speaker 10: about the basketball and hockey with the finals winding down, 2309 01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:03,519 Speaker 10: and maybe time permitting a little about the PGA, which 2310 01:49:03,560 --> 01:49:04,760 Speaker 10: you've discussed earlier. 2311 01:49:04,920 --> 01:49:07,240 Speaker 2: Ah, excellent, looking forward to that. 2312 01:49:07,360 --> 01:49:10,320 Speaker 12: As always, that's all coming up next h here on 2313 01:49:10,400 --> 01:49:14,480 Speaker 12: Fox Sports Saturday, Fox Sports Radio, tyrack dot Com Studios 2314 01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 12: is where obviously we are doing the show from. 2315 01:49:18,479 --> 01:49:23,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, names being missed in that seat, I did not 2316 01:49:23,240 --> 01:49:26,240 Speaker 2: see any of the studio stuff from the French Open. 2317 01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:28,040 Speaker 2: Probably a good thing. 2318 01:49:28,439 --> 01:49:30,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why. 2319 01:49:30,200 --> 01:49:31,200 Speaker 2: Is that unfortunate? 2320 01:49:31,240 --> 01:49:34,679 Speaker 3: That's just unfortunate, Like that's not a thing that should 2321 01:49:34,720 --> 01:49:36,880 Speaker 3: be happening. That's the thing that they've got to fix. 2322 01:49:36,920 --> 01:49:38,479 Speaker 3: And I'm sure she feels terrible about it. 2323 01:49:38,479 --> 01:49:38,720 Speaker 13: But no. 2324 01:49:38,800 --> 01:49:40,559 Speaker 4: But you know what's so funny. I I reach Twitter. 2325 01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:43,160 Speaker 4: I reach Twitter all day. Not one person I know 2326 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:45,679 Speaker 4: that said, oh my goodness, did you see that they're 2327 01:49:45,720 --> 01:49:48,920 Speaker 4: mispronouncing names and and all that. I don't think anybody 2328 01:49:48,960 --> 01:49:51,120 Speaker 4: even really picked up on that. You know, the Seger 2329 01:49:51,160 --> 01:49:53,360 Speaker 4: picked up on it. Yeah he did, that's true. 2330 01:49:53,720 --> 01:49:55,400 Speaker 2: Did you give him notes on that? Or No? 2331 01:49:55,520 --> 01:49:55,920 Speaker 4: I did not. 2332 01:49:56,200 --> 01:49:56,720 Speaker 2: I did not. 2333 01:49:58,160 --> 01:50:01,080 Speaker 4: No way, that's a pro right there, there you go. 2334 01:50:01,240 --> 01:50:02,160 Speaker 4: He certainly is. 2335 01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:09,720 Speaker 2: That's someone who knows exactly what he's doing. All right, So. 2336 01:50:07,240 --> 01:50:08,880 Speaker 4: Bryce Young, yes. 2337 01:50:09,040 --> 01:50:14,520 Speaker 3: Elevated to QB one here in these you know, offseason workouts. 2338 01:50:14,760 --> 01:50:18,320 Speaker 3: Frank Reich's calling it, quote the next step unquote. He's 2339 01:50:18,360 --> 01:50:21,080 Speaker 3: getting rave reviews from his teammates. I know Dj hark 2340 01:50:21,200 --> 01:50:22,880 Speaker 3: is talking about how good he looks out there. 2341 01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:26,519 Speaker 2: I mean again, same story. His quarterback is not going 2342 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:28,599 Speaker 2: to say, yeah, he looks like garbage right now. 2343 01:50:28,640 --> 01:50:30,519 Speaker 3: The wide receiver is not going to say about his quarterback. 2344 01:50:30,560 --> 01:50:32,439 Speaker 3: But I also love Bryce Young, and I think he's 2345 01:50:32,439 --> 01:50:33,120 Speaker 3: going to be a star. 2346 01:50:33,400 --> 01:50:34,280 Speaker 4: Yes, of course. 2347 01:50:34,600 --> 01:50:39,240 Speaker 3: However, all of this right potentially being a next step 2348 01:50:39,240 --> 01:50:42,160 Speaker 3: to him being QB one in week one and actually starting, 2349 01:50:42,479 --> 01:50:45,800 Speaker 3: not Andy Dalton, getting all the reps and everything else. Now, 2350 01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:50,840 Speaker 3: I think everybody needs to plan for a terrible year 2351 01:50:50,880 --> 01:50:52,440 Speaker 3: for the Caroline Panthers. 2352 01:50:54,240 --> 01:50:58,960 Speaker 2: Because they have no one around him yet. Well that 2353 01:50:59,000 --> 01:51:00,639 Speaker 2: could take some time. 2354 01:51:00,880 --> 01:51:03,080 Speaker 3: I mean, well, look, Frank not a hard division, a 2355 01:51:03,160 --> 01:51:06,000 Speaker 3: lot of talented wide receiver right because he was he 2356 01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:09,120 Speaker 3: was in Indianapolis where they didn't have very much. But 2357 01:51:10,040 --> 01:51:12,719 Speaker 3: getting rid of Dj Moore as a part of what 2358 01:51:13,120 --> 01:51:15,840 Speaker 3: it took to get Bryce Young. They've got Shark, and 2359 01:51:15,880 --> 01:51:18,800 Speaker 3: I do like Shark, but they don't have much else. 2360 01:51:18,880 --> 01:51:23,360 Speaker 2: They got am anymore either, They've got who Adam they 2361 01:51:23,439 --> 01:51:25,680 Speaker 2: picked up Oh that's true. They do have Deeling now 2362 01:51:25,760 --> 01:51:27,800 Speaker 2: the one's aging, but the one's still a guy that 2363 01:51:27,840 --> 01:51:30,040 Speaker 2: can help you out. But it's still one of the 2364 01:51:30,040 --> 01:51:30,759 Speaker 2: worst wide. 2365 01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:33,000 Speaker 3: Receiver rooms in the league. Maybe they'll prove us wrong, 2366 01:51:33,040 --> 01:51:35,600 Speaker 3: and maybe Bryce Young's going to be that good. But 2367 01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:39,439 Speaker 3: I think we need to measure our expectations. And I 2368 01:51:39,439 --> 01:51:42,280 Speaker 3: don't think this is doing anything wrong by Bryce in 2369 01:51:42,360 --> 01:51:44,160 Speaker 3: terms of what Reich and all of them are doing. 2370 01:51:44,200 --> 01:51:45,880 Speaker 3: They should get him out there and get him reps. 2371 01:51:46,160 --> 01:51:50,080 Speaker 3: I just don't expect Carolina to be anything of real note, 2372 01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:52,800 Speaker 3: I just want to see I think this year is 2373 01:51:52,840 --> 01:51:55,080 Speaker 3: all about it. It's kind of like Burrow's first year. 2374 01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:56,720 Speaker 3: They were still going to be bad. Now he ends 2375 01:51:56,800 --> 01:51:59,800 Speaker 3: up getting hurt and missing time. Uh, but the but 2376 01:51:59,840 --> 01:52:02,639 Speaker 3: the it was gonna take some time, and then they 2377 01:52:02,680 --> 01:52:05,040 Speaker 3: got there. In year two they started to look better, 2378 01:52:05,040 --> 01:52:08,040 Speaker 3: and of course we've seen what's happened since. This year 2379 01:52:08,120 --> 01:52:12,559 Speaker 3: is all about progress and keeping Bryce Young healthy, building 2380 01:52:12,560 --> 01:52:16,120 Speaker 3: his leadership on the NFL level, and then it's all 2381 01:52:16,160 --> 01:52:20,080 Speaker 3: gonna be about who they surround him with, the decisions 2382 01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:23,080 Speaker 3: that they make, how they perform in the draft, how 2383 01:52:23,080 --> 01:52:24,640 Speaker 3: they perform in free agency. 2384 01:52:25,280 --> 01:52:27,760 Speaker 2: All of that is gonna be critical. You can only 2385 01:52:27,800 --> 01:52:30,880 Speaker 2: do so much with a great quarterback outside of like 2386 01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:33,760 Speaker 2: the elite of the elite of the elite, right, and 2387 01:52:33,840 --> 01:52:37,200 Speaker 2: you just can't project anybody being that when you've never 2388 01:52:37,200 --> 01:52:38,799 Speaker 2: seen him take it down in the NFL. 2389 01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:41,720 Speaker 5: You're right, Look, he doesn't have the most talent around them. 2390 01:52:41,880 --> 01:52:43,400 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna go ahead and argue with you that. 2391 01:52:43,439 --> 01:52:47,640 Speaker 5: But theeling's gonna help obviously, DJ At wide receiver. Shaunat's 2392 01:52:47,640 --> 01:52:49,680 Speaker 5: gonna have to maybe be the third receiver there. He's 2393 01:52:49,720 --> 01:52:53,040 Speaker 5: gonna have to pick it up a little bit. Also, defensively, 2394 01:52:53,040 --> 01:52:55,040 Speaker 5: they're gonna be a good team. So I say, I 2395 01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:58,439 Speaker 5: don't think that's gonna be a problem there. It's not 2396 01:52:58,560 --> 01:53:01,639 Speaker 5: a world beater of a division too, So that's going 2397 01:53:01,680 --> 01:53:03,960 Speaker 5: to help him. It's not like he's, you know, just 2398 01:53:03,960 --> 01:53:05,720 Speaker 5: gonna go ahead and get beat up with. They're in 2399 01:53:05,760 --> 01:53:09,200 Speaker 5: a real tough division. It will be a better division, 2400 01:53:09,200 --> 01:53:12,599 Speaker 5: but it's not gonna be excruciating. Remember Carolina did win 2401 01:53:12,720 --> 01:53:14,880 Speaker 5: seven games. They were a game off, believe it or not, 2402 01:53:15,240 --> 01:53:17,599 Speaker 5: of winning the division at seven to ten. 2403 01:53:17,680 --> 01:53:20,680 Speaker 4: The eight and nine won the division. So if he 2404 01:53:20,760 --> 01:53:23,000 Speaker 4: got to play last year, that would have been awesome 2405 01:53:23,240 --> 01:53:25,800 Speaker 4: because the whole division was in this array. It will 2406 01:53:25,840 --> 01:53:27,760 Speaker 4: be better, but I don't I don't think we'll have 2407 01:53:27,760 --> 01:53:29,240 Speaker 4: a lot of the growing page you're gonna see from 2408 01:53:29,320 --> 01:53:31,200 Speaker 4: rookie quarterbacks from other people out there. 2409 01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:36,360 Speaker 3: It's it's certainly possible, and he's certainly good enough. That'll 2410 01:53:36,400 --> 01:53:38,400 Speaker 3: be a fascinating story to watch you you make some 2411 01:53:38,479 --> 01:53:40,799 Speaker 3: excellent points.

We're approaching mid June and they 2434 01:54:56,680 --> 01:54:58,640 Speaker 10: have yet to select a team to be on the 2435 01:54:58,680 --> 01:55:02,120 Speaker 10: Hard Knocks documentary this summer from training camp. There are 2436 01:55:02,120 --> 01:55:04,600 Speaker 10: only four teams on the list that they can make 2437 01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:08,480 Speaker 10: be in it. Let's just say nobody has volunteered at 2438 01:55:08,480 --> 01:55:08,920 Speaker 10: this point. 2439 01:55:09,000 --> 01:55:10,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, the Jets said they don't want to be in it, 2440 01:55:10,520 --> 01:55:12,680 Speaker 5: but we have to. We can force them, can't. 2441 01:55:12,440 --> 01:55:15,640 Speaker 10: We absolutely, The NFL and HBO could force it because 2442 01:55:15,640 --> 01:55:17,280 Speaker 10: there are rules that have been in place for a 2443 01:55:17,360 --> 01:55:20,440 Speaker 10: decade that as long as you don't have a brand 2444 01:55:20,480 --> 01:55:23,000 Speaker 10: new head coach, then they can make you do it, 2445 01:55:23,160 --> 01:55:25,040 Speaker 10: or you can opt out of it if you've been 2446 01:55:25,080 --> 01:55:27,960 Speaker 10: in the playoffs the last two years, and certainly that 2447 01:55:28,000 --> 01:55:31,919 Speaker 10: doesn't apply to the Jets franchise. There's some other standard 2448 01:55:31,960 --> 01:55:33,520 Speaker 10: as well, like if you've been on it in the 2449 01:55:33,560 --> 01:55:35,600 Speaker 10: past decade, you don't have to go back on it 2450 01:55:35,640 --> 01:55:38,160 Speaker 10: so soon. But the Saints coach has already said, we 2451 01:55:38,200 --> 01:55:40,160 Speaker 10: don't want the distraction, we don't want to be on it. 2452 01:55:40,240 --> 01:55:43,240 Speaker 10: Jets certainly said that the Bears and Washington are the 2453 01:55:43,280 --> 01:55:47,400 Speaker 10: other possibilities, So only those four, and my goodness, they've 2454 01:55:47,400 --> 01:55:49,880 Speaker 10: got to choose the Jets the first year with Aaron Rodgers. 2455 01:55:49,960 --> 01:55:53,120 Speaker 10: Are you kidding? But nothing official, certainly nothing official on 2456 01:55:53,200 --> 01:55:56,440 Speaker 10: that yet. Meanwhile, the Oakland A's, and this is official, 2457 01:55:56,840 --> 01:55:59,400 Speaker 10: have won four games in a row. Ladies and gentlemen, 2458 01:56:00,120 --> 01:56:03,400 Speaker 10: it is insane. It's so insane that the team was 2459 01:56:03,520 --> 01:56:07,560 Speaker 10: twelve and fifty until this four game winning streak this week. 2460 01:56:07,720 --> 01:56:10,400 Speaker 10: The folks at Stats Inc. Say, in fact, to have 2461 01:56:10,600 --> 01:56:13,800 Speaker 10: a winning percentage under two hundred this deep into a 2462 01:56:13,840 --> 01:56:16,560 Speaker 10: season and then go on a four game winning streak, 2463 01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:19,520 Speaker 10: all on the road, nobody at MLB history has done that. 2464 01:56:19,800 --> 01:56:22,160 Speaker 10: I'm not saying it's a full turnaround. But it's just a. 2465 01:56:22,680 --> 01:56:26,760 Speaker 5: Sub guy in Vegas put down I don't know how much. 2466 01:56:26,760 --> 01:56:29,040 Speaker 5: It was, maybe a thousand dollars on the A's to 2467 01:56:29,080 --> 01:56:30,480 Speaker 5: win the World Series. 2468 01:56:30,560 --> 01:56:33,880 Speaker 4: Now, no, that'd being serious. No, that's not a joke. 2469 01:56:34,000 --> 01:56:36,600 Speaker 4: That's Druey So put out money on them win the 2470 01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:37,240 Speaker 4: World Series. 2471 01:56:37,320 --> 01:56:39,240 Speaker 10: So he said no to the idea of taking his 2472 01:56:39,320 --> 01:56:41,640 Speaker 10: thousand dollars in cash and going up to the roof 2473 01:56:41,680 --> 01:56:43,560 Speaker 10: of his apartment and just throwing it off us. 2474 01:56:43,800 --> 01:56:47,840 Speaker 4: No, yes, they who knows. If you squeeze in the playoffs, you. 2475 01:56:47,840 --> 01:56:50,000 Speaker 10: Never know, that's right. Okay, the Phillies were the last 2476 01:56:50,040 --> 01:56:53,040 Speaker 10: team in last year, but of course, can I reiterate 2477 01:56:53,120 --> 01:56:55,880 Speaker 10: they got in the playoffs. That's a little different in 2478 01:56:55,960 --> 01:56:58,600 Speaker 10: the Oakland A's, whose record on the road is now 2479 01:56:58,720 --> 01:57:01,680 Speaker 10: up to a robust nine and twenty six, and the 2480 01:57:01,680 --> 01:57:03,960 Speaker 10: bad team the bad thing for the team they beat, 2481 01:57:03,960 --> 01:57:05,920 Speaker 10: I should say they won at Milwaukee three to one 2482 01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:08,920 Speaker 10: in ten innings. Milwaukee Brewers still tied for first in 2483 01:57:08,960 --> 01:57:11,840 Speaker 10: the NL Central with Pittsburgh, which lost at home to 2484 01:57:11,880 --> 01:57:13,800 Speaker 10: the Mets five to one, the Mets team that had 2485 01:57:13,840 --> 01:57:16,720 Speaker 10: lost seventh straight. And then there's the Atlanta Braves, who 2486 01:57:16,720 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 10: had won seventh straight, or as I heard somebody on 2487 01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:22,240 Speaker 10: the show say tonight, a lot in a row. Six 2488 01:57:22,280 --> 01:57:25,040 Speaker 10: to four of the final over Washington Nationals have dropped 2489 01:57:25,080 --> 01:57:27,160 Speaker 10: six straight. Braves were up five to nothing in the 2490 01:57:27,200 --> 01:57:29,720 Speaker 10: second inning. And we've talked about him before on the show, 2491 01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:32,760 Speaker 10: but it bears repeating. Ronald Acunya is having quite a 2492 01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:37,080 Speaker 10: season now three RBIs, including a home run today, He's 2493 01:57:37,080 --> 01:57:40,480 Speaker 10: batting three thirty three. In fact, he was three for four. 2494 01:57:40,880 --> 01:57:43,080 Speaker 10: The rest of the Braves were three for twenty five, 2495 01:57:43,640 --> 01:57:46,320 Speaker 10: so he kind of had something to do with this 2496 01:57:46,360 --> 01:57:49,960 Speaker 10: winning streak. Continuing, the Dodgers were nine to nothing winners 2497 01:57:49,960 --> 01:57:53,640 Speaker 10: at Philadelphia, LA. The last month has no bullpen whatsoever. 2498 01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:57,440 Speaker 10: It's really embarrassing. They've in walk off fashion lost three 2499 01:57:57,440 --> 01:58:00,360 Speaker 10: times in recent days. But when they've had Kurt Shawn 2500 01:58:00,400 --> 01:58:04,160 Speaker 10: the mound recently, there's something. And when they have their 2501 01:58:04,200 --> 01:58:07,160 Speaker 10: recent first rounder on the mound like today Bobby Miller, 2502 01:58:07,560 --> 01:58:11,400 Speaker 10: there's a good something because he becomes the only pitcher 2503 01:58:11,480 --> 01:58:13,960 Speaker 10: in the modern era of Major League Baseball too. In 2504 01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:17,560 Speaker 10: his first four career appearances like today go at least 2505 01:58:17,600 --> 01:58:20,560 Speaker 10: five innings, allowed no more than one run and no 2506 01:58:20,640 --> 01:58:23,000 Speaker 10: more than four hits. He's done that every time out 2507 01:58:23,080 --> 01:58:24,880 Speaker 10: since they brought him up, and they didn't want to 2508 01:58:24,880 --> 01:58:27,120 Speaker 10: bring him up from the miners this early, and he's 2509 01:58:27,160 --> 01:58:31,120 Speaker 10: been a godsend for an otherwise disheveled pitching staff. 2510 01:58:31,160 --> 01:58:31,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2511 01:58:31,440 --> 01:58:34,920 Speaker 10: Too many injuries too absolutely. A ton San Diego sent 2512 01:58:34,960 --> 01:58:37,520 Speaker 10: Colorado to a six straight loss, three to two. The 2513 01:58:37,640 --> 01:58:40,280 Speaker 10: Rockies have the worst record in the National League twenty 2514 01:58:40,320 --> 01:58:43,520 Speaker 10: six and forty, but the Cardinals are almost as bad. 2515 01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:46,400 Speaker 10: Saint Louis lost at home, big crowd, but lost again 2516 01:58:46,520 --> 01:58:49,600 Speaker 10: eight four to Cincinnati. The Cards record twenty seven and 2517 01:58:49,800 --> 01:58:54,920 Speaker 10: thirty eight. Cincinnati give it down five to nothing in 2518 01:58:54,960 --> 01:58:57,520 Speaker 10: the third inning to the Reds. Miles Michael Is the loss. 2519 01:58:57,920 --> 01:59:00,520 Speaker 10: Minnesota a nine to four winner at tur Rono with 2520 01:59:00,640 --> 01:59:03,440 Speaker 10: seven runs in the top of the eighth. Carlos career 2521 01:59:03,520 --> 01:59:06,480 Speaker 10: a grand Slam, and he's batting two twelve. Twins had 2522 01:59:06,480 --> 01:59:09,440 Speaker 10: lost five straight until last night's ten inning win. And 2523 01:59:09,520 --> 01:59:12,440 Speaker 10: an update on Luisa Rias the Marlins leadoff hitter. In 2524 01:59:12,520 --> 01:59:14,960 Speaker 10: today's win five to one at the White Sox, he 2525 01:59:15,000 --> 01:59:18,000 Speaker 10: went two for four. He's batting four to oh two 2526 01:59:18,320 --> 01:59:21,240 Speaker 10: at this point of the season. Miami got the five 2527 01:59:21,320 --> 01:59:23,360 Speaker 10: runs in the top of the ninth to win. Marlins 2528 01:59:23,360 --> 01:59:25,600 Speaker 10: had won six straight as a team until losing last 2529 01:59:25,680 --> 01:59:26,800 Speaker 10: night in the bottom of the ninth. 2530 01:59:27,920 --> 01:59:34,400 Speaker 3: Wow, that is that's insane. I know you're a Mets fan. 2531 01:59:34,680 --> 01:59:36,640 Speaker 3: Acune is the MVP of the league right now. 2532 01:59:37,200 --> 01:59:37,360 Speaker 2: Oh. 2533 01:59:37,360 --> 01:59:40,120 Speaker 10: Absolutely, Arnie and I were talking that Chipper Jones is 2534 01:59:40,120 --> 01:59:41,840 Speaker 10: one of the few guys to be hitting four hundred 2535 01:59:41,880 --> 01:59:44,360 Speaker 10: this late in a season in our lifetime. 2536 01:59:45,040 --> 01:59:49,680 Speaker 2: That's right. All of these stats, these are all these 2537 01:59:49,680 --> 01:59:52,000 Speaker 2: are all very positive turns of events. They are When 2538 01:59:52,040 --> 01:59:53,960 Speaker 2: we come back, the bonus hour of the show will 2539 01:59:53,960 --> 01:59:58,360 Speaker 2: have Bernie Fratto and we're gonna reset Denver Miami Game 2540 01:59:58,520 --> 02:00:03,880 Speaker 2: five is it OVA on Monday. 2541 02:00:04,760 --> 02:00:07,720 Speaker 3: Indeed, we are live from the tyrack dot com studios 2542 02:00:07,760 --> 02:00:09,760 Speaker 3: final hour of our show.

Maybe could be two, could be three, 2553 02:00:48,280 --> 02:00:52,240 Speaker 3: But the most likely scenario is that it probably ends 2554 02:00:52,280 --> 02:00:55,720 Speaker 3: on Monday night. Any reason to think this thing's going six, 2555 02:00:55,800 --> 02:00:56,080 Speaker 3: aren't he? 2556 02:00:56,320 --> 02:00:56,400 Speaker 11: No? 2557 02:00:56,560 --> 02:00:58,720 Speaker 5: I have no reason whatsoever to think that this one's 2558 02:00:58,760 --> 02:01:01,520 Speaker 5: gonna go six. I mean thing, Miami had their chance 2559 02:01:01,560 --> 02:01:05,200 Speaker 5: to tie it up. Jokic, a two games apiece, twisted 2560 02:01:05,240 --> 02:01:07,480 Speaker 5: his ankle and then he picked up his fifth foul 2561 02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:10,720 Speaker 5: with about what nine minutes left in the game. Miami 2562 02:01:10,800 --> 02:01:12,760 Speaker 5: not able to take advantage of that. That was their 2563 02:01:12,800 --> 02:01:15,520 Speaker 5: golden opportunity to tie up the series. I still don't 2564 02:01:15,520 --> 02:01:16,920 Speaker 5: think they would have won it even if that would 2565 02:01:16,960 --> 02:01:19,800 Speaker 5: have happened, but it would be a whole different discussion 2566 02:01:19,840 --> 02:01:23,240 Speaker 5: at that point. Denver's gonna end this on Monday. I 2567 02:01:23,280 --> 02:01:26,480 Speaker 5: wish we would have had something on Sunday. I think 2568 02:01:26,520 --> 02:01:29,280 Speaker 5: it's ridiculous we go the whole weekend. Could you imagine 2569 02:01:29,600 --> 02:01:33,720 Speaker 5: the clinching game on Sunday night. I just don't understand 2570 02:01:33,760 --> 02:01:36,920 Speaker 5: how they've got about, you know, picking the. 2571 02:01:36,920 --> 02:01:39,200 Speaker 4: Days for when they play these games. 2572 02:01:39,240 --> 02:01:42,440 Speaker 5: I think it has to be looked again and figure 2573 02:01:42,480 --> 02:01:45,320 Speaker 5: this out because this last week it's just way too 2574 02:01:45,400 --> 02:01:46,200 Speaker 5: many days off. 2575 02:01:47,600 --> 02:01:51,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's kind of disjointed in that sometimes 2576 02:01:51,000 --> 02:01:52,640 Speaker 2: you can only get it feels like you only get 2577 02:01:52,640 --> 02:01:54,360 Speaker 2: a day off, and then sometimes it feels like you 2578 02:01:54,400 --> 02:01:57,080 Speaker 2: get a week off, right, and there's not like a 2579 02:01:57,120 --> 02:01:59,320 Speaker 2: good rhythm to it. It does feel like the game 2580 02:01:59,360 --> 02:02:02,680 Speaker 2: should be played I guess tonight, depending on where you 2581 02:02:02,680 --> 02:02:06,360 Speaker 2: are in country, but Tomorrow night, Sunday night goes like 2582 02:02:06,440 --> 02:02:08,680 Speaker 2: the night and instead it's gonna be on Monday night. 2583 02:02:09,800 --> 02:02:10,920 Speaker 2: You point about Jokic in. 2584 02:02:10,920 --> 02:02:14,680 Speaker 3: His five fouls, Yeah, gets called for a lot of fouls. 2585 02:02:14,800 --> 02:02:16,880 Speaker 2: Yes, not just in this game, but in all games. 2586 02:02:16,880 --> 02:02:18,840 Speaker 3: And I'm not necessarily saying that he shouldn't be getting 2587 02:02:18,880 --> 02:02:21,480 Speaker 3: called for fouls, but it seems like he gets called 2588 02:02:21,480 --> 02:02:24,840 Speaker 3: for a ton of fouls that a lot of other 2589 02:02:24,880 --> 02:02:30,160 Speaker 3: guys don't. And considering two time MVP, the respect that 2590 02:02:30,240 --> 02:02:33,800 Speaker 3: he has amongst the other players in the league, all 2591 02:02:33,800 --> 02:02:36,600 Speaker 3: of that, it is kind of odd to me that 2592 02:02:36,680 --> 02:02:38,280 Speaker 3: he gets hit so much by the refs. 2593 02:02:38,560 --> 02:02:42,480 Speaker 5: You know, in baseball they say that if you know 2594 02:02:42,520 --> 02:02:44,600 Speaker 5: a guy with a great ica, when when Keith Hernandez 2595 02:02:44,640 --> 02:02:45,280 Speaker 5: wouldn't swing. 2596 02:02:45,600 --> 02:02:47,560 Speaker 4: Well, it's got to be a ball. He's on swinging. 2597 02:02:47,640 --> 02:02:49,920 Speaker 5: He's a great hitter out there, so you better not 2598 02:02:50,040 --> 02:02:53,760 Speaker 5: call him looking for a strike. I think Jokic doesn't 2599 02:02:53,760 --> 02:02:57,800 Speaker 5: get the cause because so many other people complain and 2600 02:02:57,920 --> 02:02:58,920 Speaker 5: just get in the revs. 2601 02:02:58,960 --> 02:02:59,320 Speaker 4: Heads. 2602 02:02:59,520 --> 02:03:02,680 Speaker 5: I think he's the biggest superstar in basketball that gets 2603 02:03:02,720 --> 02:03:04,240 Speaker 5: the least amount of calls out there. 2604 02:03:04,280 --> 02:03:06,360 Speaker 4: It is amazing how a. 2605 02:03:05,880 --> 02:03:09,640 Speaker 5: Two time MVP and top three in the voting, you 2606 02:03:09,680 --> 02:03:12,240 Speaker 5: should have been there two in the voting this year, 2607 02:03:12,760 --> 02:03:16,720 Speaker 5: and it just is embarrassing the lack of calls this 2608 02:03:16,760 --> 02:03:17,400 Speaker 5: guy gets. 2609 02:03:17,520 --> 02:03:19,160 Speaker 4: It's it's just ridiculous. 2610 02:03:19,320 --> 02:03:22,160 Speaker 5: Plus of course he plays underneath and he's down there 2611 02:03:22,160 --> 02:03:24,040 Speaker 5: in the key, so you gonna pick up more fouls 2612 02:03:24,520 --> 02:03:26,960 Speaker 5: when people drive to the key also, so that that's. 2613 02:03:26,880 --> 02:03:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah reason why. 2614 02:03:28,200 --> 02:03:29,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I think maybe part of it is he's 2615 02:03:29,880 --> 02:03:32,920 Speaker 3: not known for his defense, and he's not he's not 2616 02:03:33,040 --> 02:03:35,560 Speaker 3: known to be like a stopper on defense. You even 2617 02:03:35,600 --> 02:03:37,720 Speaker 3: heard one of the heat players I think talk about, 2618 02:03:38,000 --> 02:03:41,840 Speaker 3: you know, he's not really defensive stopper. That's not really's game, right, 2619 02:03:41,960 --> 02:03:45,680 Speaker 3: So when he gets aggressive defensively, I think it's easier 2620 02:03:45,680 --> 02:03:47,520 Speaker 3: to call the foul because he's not used to playing 2621 02:03:47,560 --> 02:03:50,920 Speaker 3: that way. Like I actually think it benefits guys like 2622 02:03:51,000 --> 02:03:54,800 Speaker 3: back in the day Rashee Wallace or Draymond or Ben 2623 02:03:54,840 --> 02:03:58,840 Speaker 3: Wallace or or defensive guys certainly Lamb if you get 2624 02:03:58,880 --> 02:04:00,920 Speaker 3: a way back, Rick Mahorre and all these guys like 2625 02:04:00,920 --> 02:04:05,520 Speaker 3: oh geez, they were known for a certain style of play, 2626 02:04:06,160 --> 02:04:08,280 Speaker 3: and so maybe you get away with it a little 2627 02:04:08,320 --> 02:04:11,480 Speaker 3: bit more often than somebody that's I don't want to 2628 02:04:11,560 --> 02:04:14,520 Speaker 3: use the term soft, but just defensively, he's not as 2629 02:04:14,640 --> 02:04:17,880 Speaker 3: rigid as that, and the way that he plays and 2630 02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:21,520 Speaker 3: where he finds himself, I can see how it happens. 2631 02:04:21,840 --> 02:04:25,160 Speaker 3: But he's not really on the defensive end. He's not aggressive, 2632 02:04:25,280 --> 02:04:27,840 Speaker 3: which seems like it should benefit him. But it's like 2633 02:04:28,000 --> 02:04:32,280 Speaker 3: anytime he makes contact with anybody, he seems to get 2634 02:04:32,280 --> 02:04:32,680 Speaker 3: a call. 2635 02:04:33,960 --> 02:04:37,200 Speaker 2: And it is odd because it just most guys. 2636 02:04:36,880 --> 02:04:40,320 Speaker 3: That are at his level, there is a certain you know, 2637 02:04:40,800 --> 02:04:43,240 Speaker 3: you know, star calls and all this, and he does 2638 02:04:43,280 --> 02:04:45,600 Speaker 3: not benefit from those, at least not when it comes 2639 02:04:45,640 --> 02:04:46,200 Speaker 3: to fouls. 2640 02:04:46,200 --> 02:04:47,480 Speaker 2: Like he does go to the line. 2641 02:04:47,240 --> 02:04:49,920 Speaker 3: A good bit, but that's because of the size of 2642 02:04:50,040 --> 02:04:52,520 Speaker 3: skill he's got the ball in his hands quite a bit, 2643 02:04:52,640 --> 02:04:54,640 Speaker 3: that kind of thing on the defensive side. 2644 02:04:54,640 --> 02:04:56,240 Speaker 2: He does not get the benefit of the doubt. 2645 02:04:56,320 --> 02:04:57,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, he doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. But 2646 02:04:57,960 --> 02:04:59,920 Speaker 5: I mean, I know a way to take care of that. 2647 02:05:00,560 --> 02:05:02,200 Speaker 5: And I think this is the next thing that the 2648 02:05:02,280 --> 02:05:04,120 Speaker 5: NBA should do and look into. I don't want to 2649 02:05:04,160 --> 02:05:08,520 Speaker 5: be the drastic rule change guy, but instead of six 2650 02:05:08,600 --> 02:05:11,200 Speaker 5: files and you're eliminated from the game, it should be 2651 02:05:11,440 --> 02:05:14,120 Speaker 5: two technical fouls and the other team gets the ball 2652 02:05:14,160 --> 02:05:17,720 Speaker 5: out of bounds. Because what you're doing is you're eliminating 2653 02:05:17,720 --> 02:05:20,720 Speaker 5: a player from the game, or you're putting him on 2654 02:05:20,760 --> 02:05:23,080 Speaker 5: the bench when he's got four or five fouls, or 2655 02:05:23,120 --> 02:05:24,640 Speaker 5: you're putting him on the bench when he picks up 2656 02:05:24,640 --> 02:05:27,360 Speaker 5: three foules in the first half, And that can't be 2657 02:05:27,520 --> 02:05:30,960 Speaker 5: accepted anymore. You know, there's one thing in the NFL 2658 02:05:31,040 --> 02:05:32,960 Speaker 5: or baseball where you get thrown out of the game. 2659 02:05:33,320 --> 02:05:37,600 Speaker 5: But you can't have something where it just eliminates a 2660 02:05:37,720 --> 02:05:40,280 Speaker 5: player because they have too many fouls and they can 2661 02:05:40,280 --> 02:05:43,120 Speaker 5: get eliminated from the game. You've got to make, you know, 2662 02:05:43,160 --> 02:05:45,600 Speaker 5: a couple of extra file shots. But you can't have 2663 02:05:45,680 --> 02:05:47,920 Speaker 5: that type of penalty anymore, all Right, So. 2664 02:05:47,840 --> 02:05:50,120 Speaker 2: I've heard this argument before, but I didn't know that 2665 02:05:50,200 --> 02:05:51,160 Speaker 2: you were going to go here. 2666 02:05:51,280 --> 02:05:55,680 Speaker 3: So you're against the idea of anybody being disqualified for. 2667 02:05:55,720 --> 02:05:58,160 Speaker 5: Fouls, Yes, but what that does is it will add 2668 02:05:58,200 --> 02:06:00,400 Speaker 5: more foule shots to the game. Is than he won't 2669 02:06:00,440 --> 02:06:02,680 Speaker 5: be afraid to call fouls because they're like, hey, so 2670 02:06:02,800 --> 02:06:05,400 Speaker 5: what because I'm not gonna file you out of the 2671 02:06:05,440 --> 02:06:08,200 Speaker 5: game so you can still play. But after six it's 2672 02:06:08,240 --> 02:06:09,960 Speaker 5: just gonna be a technical fouls. So I think they'll 2673 02:06:09,960 --> 02:06:11,120 Speaker 5: call it a lot better. 2674 02:06:11,680 --> 02:06:14,560 Speaker 3: Well, you talk about they'd be more free to call fouls. 2675 02:06:14,600 --> 02:06:17,000 Speaker 3: The one thing I don't think the NBA needs, or 2676 02:06:17,040 --> 02:06:19,000 Speaker 3: any sport, is more officiating. 2677 02:06:19,040 --> 02:06:20,440 Speaker 2: I don't need more fouls. 2678 02:06:20,640 --> 02:06:24,160 Speaker 3: I don't need more free throws being shot, more stops 2679 02:06:24,160 --> 02:06:26,000 Speaker 3: any action, more. 2680 02:06:25,840 --> 02:06:27,040 Speaker 2: Breaks in momentum. 2681 02:06:28,160 --> 02:06:30,680 Speaker 3: I like the idea of not taking a star out 2682 02:06:30,720 --> 02:06:35,400 Speaker 3: of a game unless he's done something egregious, like you know, 2683 02:06:35,440 --> 02:06:37,920 Speaker 3: like a targeting penalty that's legit in. 2684 02:06:37,960 --> 02:06:40,480 Speaker 2: College football or one of those. 2685 02:06:40,520 --> 02:06:42,520 Speaker 3: And you know what I mean by those personal foul 2686 02:06:42,560 --> 02:06:45,120 Speaker 3: penalties in the NFL, when you've just flat out gone 2687 02:06:45,120 --> 02:06:49,960 Speaker 3: too far and it's been a dangerous situation actual like 2688 02:06:50,080 --> 02:06:52,800 Speaker 3: within the context of the game fouls, But then you 2689 02:06:52,920 --> 02:06:55,320 Speaker 3: just have to wonder who takes advantage of that and 2690 02:06:55,320 --> 02:06:57,040 Speaker 3: then just keeps on committing. 2691 02:06:56,680 --> 02:07:00,400 Speaker 2: Fouls because nobody there's no reason not to. 2692 02:07:00,640 --> 02:07:02,720 Speaker 5: Well, nobody's not going to commit after six files. But 2693 02:07:02,880 --> 02:07:04,520 Speaker 5: then you got two technicals in the ball out of 2694 02:07:04,520 --> 02:07:07,360 Speaker 5: bounds to the other team. That's a harsh penalty. 2695 02:07:07,560 --> 02:07:10,680 Speaker 2: Technicals. They can be shot by anybody, yeah, on the 2696 02:07:10,760 --> 02:07:12,240 Speaker 2: other team. I mean it would have to be right 2697 02:07:12,280 --> 02:07:14,760 Speaker 2: because right, yeah, you foul you, you would immediately go 2698 02:07:14,800 --> 02:07:16,320 Speaker 2: foul the guy that can't make free throw. 2699 02:07:16,360 --> 02:07:18,640 Speaker 4: Right, So I mean that's a harsh penalty. 2700 02:07:18,680 --> 02:07:21,160 Speaker 5: And you're really only gonna go ahead and keep the 2701 02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:22,720 Speaker 5: guy in there if it's going to be a close 2702 02:07:22,760 --> 02:07:25,879 Speaker 5: game or he's your superstar and you know that that'd 2703 02:07:25,920 --> 02:07:27,520 Speaker 5: be the only reason to still have him in there. 2704 02:07:27,520 --> 02:07:30,840 Speaker 5: But you've got to do something because I mean, they're 2705 02:07:30,880 --> 02:07:33,720 Speaker 5: just beating each other up in there, and officials are 2706 02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:36,320 Speaker 5: swallowing the whistle because they don't want to get anybody 2707 02:07:36,360 --> 02:07:37,120 Speaker 5: in the foul trouble. 2708 02:07:37,160 --> 02:07:38,440 Speaker 4: They're just letting a lot of things go. 2709 02:07:38,560 --> 02:07:44,760 Speaker 3: Right now, what has this playoff, maybe not the finals, 2710 02:07:44,800 --> 02:07:49,480 Speaker 3: but just this playoffs in general done for maybe the 2711 02:07:49,600 --> 02:07:55,360 Speaker 3: perception of Jimmy Butler positive and negative, Arny. I mean, 2712 02:07:55,400 --> 02:07:58,280 Speaker 3: they've certainly been positives. There have been positives in multiple 2713 02:07:58,360 --> 02:08:03,120 Speaker 3: postseasons for Jimmy Butler, and he's great to watch, but 2714 02:08:03,960 --> 02:08:06,000 Speaker 3: he has come up a little bit small when it 2715 02:08:06,040 --> 02:08:08,760 Speaker 3: comes to this. Was a Miami team that was going 2716 02:08:08,800 --> 02:08:11,360 Speaker 3: to need him to get about thirty a games right right, 2717 02:08:11,360 --> 02:08:14,840 Speaker 3: that just hadn't been there for them anywhere near enough. Now, 2718 02:08:14,880 --> 02:08:16,880 Speaker 3: he's very tired and he's played a lot of minutes, 2719 02:08:16,920 --> 02:08:20,200 Speaker 3: and I don't fall to him for maybe hitting a 2720 02:08:20,240 --> 02:08:23,600 Speaker 3: wall or just being a little bit exhausted. But what 2721 02:08:23,640 --> 02:08:27,600 Speaker 3: do you think the opinion is of himmy buckets. 2722 02:08:28,120 --> 02:08:30,600 Speaker 5: I think here in the end of this, there's no 2723 02:08:30,640 --> 02:08:35,040 Speaker 5: doubt it's elevated his status in the NBA, you know, 2724 02:08:35,120 --> 02:08:37,800 Speaker 5: and people love his story. They think that's a great thing. 2725 02:08:37,800 --> 02:08:39,760 Speaker 5: And also I saw him and what is it the 2726 02:08:39,800 --> 02:08:40,800 Speaker 5: michelop commercial? 2727 02:08:40,840 --> 02:08:43,320 Speaker 4: Is that with beer? I forget what with beer? Uh? 2728 02:08:43,480 --> 02:08:44,480 Speaker 4: He's in the commercial. 2729 02:08:44,760 --> 02:08:46,880 Speaker 5: So I don't know if that was just a more 2730 02:08:47,000 --> 02:08:50,120 Speaker 5: recent thing of the last couple of months or something 2731 02:08:50,160 --> 02:08:52,720 Speaker 5: that started right before the playoffs. But he'll get more 2732 02:08:52,760 --> 02:08:55,480 Speaker 5: recognition for that. I don't think there's too many negatives, 2733 02:08:55,520 --> 02:08:58,320 Speaker 5: just he's had some bad games the last six or 2734 02:08:58,360 --> 02:09:02,560 Speaker 5: seven games or six seven games. But nobody really thought 2735 02:09:02,560 --> 02:09:04,200 Speaker 5: that the Miami Heat were a team that we're gonna 2736 02:09:04,200 --> 02:09:06,320 Speaker 5: get this far anyway, And I don't think there's gonna 2737 02:09:06,320 --> 02:09:08,920 Speaker 5: be much of a negative all said and done. I 2738 02:09:09,440 --> 02:09:12,080 Speaker 5: think that they'll continue to be a good team next 2739 02:09:12,120 --> 02:09:14,920 Speaker 5: year if they get that one star. Remember they had 2740 02:09:14,960 --> 02:09:17,520 Speaker 5: a lot of injuries this year. Yeah, so that was 2741 02:09:17,560 --> 02:09:19,840 Speaker 5: the reason why they were so far down as a seed. 2742 02:09:20,120 --> 02:09:22,520 Speaker 5: They were better than an eight seed anyway, So I 2743 02:09:23,240 --> 02:09:26,080 Speaker 5: don't think there's any negatives when it comes to Jimmy Butler. 2744 02:09:27,920 --> 02:09:29,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's an important point. 2745 02:09:29,560 --> 02:09:33,280 Speaker 3: Dealing with the injuries, including to Jimmy Butler, They're probably 2746 02:09:33,320 --> 02:09:36,560 Speaker 3: not an eight seed. They're probably more like a four 2747 02:09:36,640 --> 02:09:37,320 Speaker 3: or five. 2748 02:09:37,120 --> 02:09:39,400 Speaker 2: Seed in the East. 2749 02:09:39,400 --> 02:09:41,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I still think you'd probably look at Boston, 2750 02:09:41,880 --> 02:09:44,360 Speaker 3: you'd look at Philadelphia, you'd certainly look at milwak. 2751 02:09:44,480 --> 02:09:46,680 Speaker 5: They were fighting it out with the Knicks with about 2752 02:09:46,720 --> 02:09:47,600 Speaker 5: two weeks left. 2753 02:09:47,640 --> 02:09:49,200 Speaker 4: They had some close games. 2754 02:09:49,440 --> 02:09:52,040 Speaker 5: Nicks I think took two out of three that had 2755 02:09:52,080 --> 02:09:54,640 Speaker 5: a little bit of a separation. Miami ended up dropping 2756 02:09:54,720 --> 02:09:57,840 Speaker 5: after that, so it wasn't a big hole. Heck of 2757 02:09:57,960 --> 02:09:59,960 Speaker 5: a difference if they don't get hurt, that's for sure. 2758 02:10:00,640 --> 02:10:03,360 Speaker 3: Someone that got hurt a lot got hurt again this 2759 02:10:03,480 --> 02:10:09,920 Speaker 3: postseason and now reportedly is out in Phoenix, is Chris Paul. Yes, 2760 02:10:11,320 --> 02:10:14,960 Speaker 3: your thoughts on this, because I can understand why people 2761 02:10:14,960 --> 02:10:17,640 Speaker 3: would argue for Chris Paul and trying to run this back. 2762 02:10:18,200 --> 02:10:20,280 Speaker 3: I don't think Phoenix has much of a choice because 2763 02:10:20,280 --> 02:10:22,520 Speaker 3: I think at some point you just have to have 2764 02:10:22,600 --> 02:10:26,760 Speaker 3: to recognize that he's not dependable whether you like his game, 2765 02:10:26,920 --> 02:10:30,040 Speaker 3: and certainly when he was healthy, the Sons look good 2766 02:10:30,040 --> 02:10:31,960 Speaker 3: in the playoffs and they were playing really well together. 2767 02:10:32,040 --> 02:10:35,880 Speaker 3: But that's problem when he's healthy, and throughout his career 2768 02:10:35,920 --> 02:10:38,720 Speaker 3: he's been dogged by injuries, and it's just not a 2769 02:10:38,840 --> 02:10:41,800 Speaker 3: risk that I would be willing to take anymore. If 2770 02:10:41,840 --> 02:10:44,360 Speaker 3: I'm Phoenix and I've seen this happen multiple times. 2771 02:10:44,600 --> 02:10:46,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, maybe change my answer from our number one? Who 2772 02:10:46,960 --> 02:10:48,320 Speaker 5: would I like to play it a one on one 2773 02:10:48,320 --> 02:10:49,560 Speaker 5: because I think I could beat them. 2774 02:10:49,720 --> 02:10:50,640 Speaker 4: That'd be Chris Paul. 2775 02:10:50,760 --> 02:10:52,720 Speaker 5: I would have changed it to that answer, because there's 2776 02:10:52,720 --> 02:10:55,839 Speaker 5: no way that guy has nothing left in the tank. 2777 02:10:56,480 --> 02:10:58,600 Speaker 5: You're lucky if you do get like thirty or forty 2778 02:10:58,640 --> 02:10:59,400 Speaker 5: games out of him. 2779 02:10:59,560 --> 02:11:00,760 Speaker 4: He's more of a leader. 2780 02:11:01,160 --> 02:11:03,800 Speaker 5: Maybe when you get to the playoffs, you don't need 2781 02:11:03,880 --> 02:11:05,960 Speaker 5: him for the type of money that he was making. 2782 02:11:06,520 --> 02:11:08,960 Speaker 5: I could see why the Lakers maybe wanted to make 2783 02:11:09,040 --> 02:11:11,560 Speaker 5: a little bit of a push, or maybe a veteran 2784 02:11:11,600 --> 02:11:13,840 Speaker 5: team wants to make a push. But he's not a 2785 02:11:13,880 --> 02:11:15,880 Speaker 5: guy for the long term. He's not a guy for 2786 02:11:15,960 --> 02:11:19,839 Speaker 5: the long season. It's just too much on him. His 2787 02:11:20,040 --> 02:11:22,880 Speaker 5: best days are long, long gone, no doubt about that. 2788 02:11:23,440 --> 02:11:25,680 Speaker 2: Now. I don't know what Phoenix is gonna be because 2789 02:11:25,880 --> 02:11:29,080 Speaker 2: and Torres and I talked about this with some of 2790 02:11:29,080 --> 02:11:31,200 Speaker 2: these coaching moves that have happened. So you get money 2791 02:11:31,320 --> 02:11:35,200 Speaker 2: is out in Phoenix, but they bring in Frank Vogel, Yes, 2792 02:11:35,800 --> 02:11:38,160 Speaker 2: Like is he the answer? I don't know, is he 2793 02:11:38,320 --> 02:11:41,320 Speaker 2: the missing piece? Like you move on for money and 2794 02:11:41,360 --> 02:11:43,520 Speaker 2: you bring in Vogel And yeah, it's not like Vogel 2795 02:11:43,600 --> 02:11:44,839 Speaker 2: is a bad coach. 2796 02:11:44,960 --> 02:11:47,320 Speaker 3: But I guess it's just not a name that was 2797 02:11:47,360 --> 02:11:51,240 Speaker 3: particularly exciting. I don't know who would have been. But 2798 02:11:52,720 --> 02:11:55,280 Speaker 3: if that was the answer, it's like, I don't think 2799 02:11:55,360 --> 02:11:58,280 Speaker 3: that Frank Vogel makes you demonstrably better than you were 2800 02:11:58,280 --> 02:11:58,640 Speaker 3: with money. 2801 02:11:58,680 --> 02:12:01,040 Speaker 5: Williams no, you're one hundred percent right on that also, 2802 02:12:01,120 --> 02:12:05,120 Speaker 5: but new owner wants to go with his guys make 2803 02:12:05,240 --> 02:12:09,320 Speaker 5: changes in personnel, and that was one of them. I mean, 2804 02:12:09,320 --> 02:12:11,440 Speaker 5: I could understand that, might not agree with it, but 2805 02:12:11,440 --> 02:12:13,480 Speaker 5: I could certainly understand the rationale of this. 2806 02:12:14,240 --> 02:12:16,160 Speaker 3: So Chris Paul to the Lakers, to me, and I 2807 02:12:16,200 --> 02:12:19,920 Speaker 3: heard Coward would say this earlier this week on his program, 2808 02:12:20,160 --> 02:12:21,960 Speaker 3: that one doesn't make a whole lot of sense time. 2809 02:12:22,040 --> 02:12:24,160 Speaker 3: I mean, it does because it's Lebron, this kind of 2810 02:12:24,160 --> 02:12:27,240 Speaker 3: thing he would do. But that's exactly the opposite of 2811 02:12:27,280 --> 02:12:29,839 Speaker 3: the team they need to be. They need to continue 2812 02:12:29,880 --> 02:12:30,400 Speaker 3: to get. 2813 02:12:30,280 --> 02:12:31,400 Speaker 2: Younger, yeah, not old. 2814 02:12:31,440 --> 02:12:33,640 Speaker 3: You have guys that can make shots, and they need 2815 02:12:33,680 --> 02:12:35,600 Speaker 3: to have guys that are going to be healthy. Because 2816 02:12:36,280 --> 02:12:39,760 Speaker 3: Lebron's best health is years past, doesn't mean that he 2817 02:12:39,880 --> 02:12:42,920 Speaker 3: can't stay healthy. And he's certainly been healthy throughout much 2818 02:12:42,920 --> 02:12:44,680 Speaker 3: of his career. But he's getting older and so the 2819 02:12:44,760 --> 02:12:47,760 Speaker 3: injuries are coming a little bit, a little bit more often. 2820 02:12:48,280 --> 02:12:51,000 Speaker 2: They're a little bit nagging, they're hanging on longer. We 2821 02:12:51,080 --> 02:12:52,360 Speaker 2: know about Anthony Davis. 2822 02:12:53,000 --> 02:12:54,640 Speaker 3: You have a couple of guys on that team that 2823 02:12:54,720 --> 02:12:56,280 Speaker 3: you really want to try and retain and if you 2824 02:12:56,560 --> 02:12:59,520 Speaker 3: definitely want to move on from But bringing in Chris 2825 02:12:59,520 --> 02:13:03,200 Speaker 3: Paul seems to be bringing in the point guard version. 2826 02:13:02,920 --> 02:13:03,880 Speaker 2: Of Anthony Davis. 2827 02:13:03,920 --> 02:13:05,800 Speaker 3: Not that he doesn't give you his effort every time 2828 02:13:05,920 --> 02:13:09,040 Speaker 3: or anything else, but just the health fails him, and 2829 02:13:09,080 --> 02:13:11,720 Speaker 3: it often fails him at the most critical moments. You 2830 02:13:11,720 --> 02:13:14,680 Speaker 3: get into a playoff series and you use him again, Like, 2831 02:13:14,800 --> 02:13:16,400 Speaker 3: that's what you're gonna risk everything on. 2832 02:13:16,600 --> 02:13:17,880 Speaker 2: I just I can't do it. 2833 02:13:18,240 --> 02:13:20,600 Speaker 5: No, you can't. And you know, especially with the money 2834 02:13:20,640 --> 02:13:22,840 Speaker 5: that he was guaranteed this year. What was he guaranteed? 2835 02:13:23,400 --> 02:13:25,760 Speaker 5: Like what thirty forty million dollars? 2836 02:13:26,080 --> 02:13:27,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, a solid amount of money. 2837 02:13:27,480 --> 02:13:28,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, no way. 2838 02:13:28,680 --> 02:13:30,920 Speaker 5: And this look, this is not only a financial deal, 2839 02:13:31,160 --> 02:13:34,560 Speaker 5: it's what's best for the team. And really it's what's 2840 02:13:34,600 --> 02:13:36,640 Speaker 5: best for Chris Paul because they'll be able to go 2841 02:13:36,680 --> 02:13:39,000 Speaker 5: ahead and move on and go wherever he wants to go. 2842 02:13:39,160 --> 02:13:41,720 Speaker 5: So I think it's a win win situation forebrity. But 2843 02:13:41,760 --> 02:13:45,240 Speaker 5: it was the only thing that Phoenix had to do. 2844 02:13:45,320 --> 02:13:47,240 Speaker 5: They really had no choice in the matter. 2845 02:13:48,120 --> 02:13:50,280 Speaker 2: No, I tend to agree with you, and I'll be 2846 02:13:50,320 --> 02:13:52,240 Speaker 2: interested to see where it is that he lands and 2847 02:13:52,600 --> 02:13:54,760 Speaker 2: where the interests comes from, because there will be a 2848 02:13:54,840 --> 02:13:57,280 Speaker 2: lot of teams that want that, and I'd love to 2849 02:13:57,280 --> 02:13:59,080 Speaker 2: see him be healthy and make a real run. I 2850 02:13:59,200 --> 02:14:00,800 Speaker 2: just I feel like. 2851 02:14:00,800 --> 02:14:03,160 Speaker 3: He's had the best cracks that he's ever gonna have. 2852 02:14:03,840 --> 02:14:06,240 Speaker 3: And they've been a couple of years in Phoenix where 2853 02:14:06,240 --> 02:14:10,200 Speaker 3: they've gotten close but not found their way to paidart. 2854 02:14:10,280 --> 02:14:12,280 Speaker 3: A guy that always helps you find your way to 2855 02:14:12,320 --> 02:14:14,800 Speaker 3: pay dirt is Bernie Fratto.

Bernie, how are. 2872 02:15:19,680 --> 02:15:20,760 Speaker 6: You, gentlemen? 2873 02:15:21,080 --> 02:15:23,360 Speaker 13: Good to be with you as always, And I would 2874 02:15:23,400 --> 02:15:27,080 Speaker 13: say this, sports fans, take heart, because you've got two 2875 02:15:27,160 --> 02:15:30,760 Speaker 13: playoff series in which two teams are up three to one, 2876 02:15:31,400 --> 02:15:34,600 Speaker 13: and six months, six years ago this month, the Vegas 2877 02:15:34,640 --> 02:15:38,280 Speaker 13: Golden Knights didn't even exist. And it wasn't that awfully 2878 02:15:38,400 --> 02:15:42,400 Speaker 13: long ago that the Denver Nuggets were seventeen and sixty five. 2879 02:15:42,880 --> 02:15:45,200 Speaker 13: And he were such a laughing stock that when it 2880 02:15:45,240 --> 02:15:48,040 Speaker 13: came time for the fans to vote who their favorite 2881 02:15:48,120 --> 02:15:54,320 Speaker 13: nugget was, it was unanimously Rocky the Mascot. True story, 2882 02:15:55,080 --> 02:15:57,120 Speaker 13: but you just know Nick Wran's gonna say, yeah, but 2883 02:15:57,160 --> 02:15:58,680 Speaker 13: they beat three playing teams. 2884 02:15:58,800 --> 02:15:59,560 Speaker 6: But I digress. 2885 02:16:00,240 --> 02:16:02,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Rocky the mascot, keep your head on a swivel. 2886 02:16:02,840 --> 02:16:04,360 Speaker 2: If Connor McGregor happens. 2887 02:16:04,040 --> 02:16:06,080 Speaker 13: Oh my god, did you see what happened in Miami 2888 02:16:06,320 --> 02:16:07,080 Speaker 13: with a left hook? 2889 02:16:07,840 --> 02:16:11,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I argued, Bernie, you you correct me if 2890 02:16:11,280 --> 02:16:13,720 Speaker 3: you think I'm wrong on this. Watching the video of it, 2891 02:16:14,240 --> 02:16:16,920 Speaker 3: Connor knew he was throwing real punches, but I think 2892 02:16:16,960 --> 02:16:21,720 Speaker 3: he overestimated the protection that the head gear. 2893 02:16:22,040 --> 02:16:24,600 Speaker 2: Would provide the mascot. I think he wanted to make 2894 02:16:24,640 --> 02:16:27,440 Speaker 2: it look convincing. He knows how to throw punches, and 2895 02:16:27,480 --> 02:16:30,600 Speaker 2: he knows how to quote throw punches. But I think 2896 02:16:30,640 --> 02:16:32,760 Speaker 2: he thought that that he would be fine because of 2897 02:16:32,800 --> 02:16:34,440 Speaker 2: that head gear, and that turned out not to be 2898 02:16:34,480 --> 02:16:34,880 Speaker 2: the case. 2899 02:16:35,200 --> 02:16:37,880 Speaker 13: I think that's a fair assumption. Yeah, I agree with you. 2900 02:16:38,080 --> 02:16:39,480 Speaker 13: I agree with you. I mean, what are we going 2901 02:16:39,560 --> 02:16:39,760 Speaker 13: to do? 2902 02:16:41,200 --> 02:16:44,680 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, we're gonna watch the mascot for the 2903 02:16:44,720 --> 02:16:46,320 Speaker 2: heat go to the emergency room. 2904 02:16:46,520 --> 02:16:49,760 Speaker 6: That's he did that last night. I think I hope 2905 02:16:49,760 --> 02:16:51,120 Speaker 6: he's got insurance health insurance. 2906 02:16:51,600 --> 02:16:54,680 Speaker 2: So I think we are contractually obligated to ask you 2907 02:16:55,520 --> 02:16:58,840 Speaker 2: a question about the Vegas as yes, because you give. 2908 02:16:58,760 --> 02:17:01,080 Speaker 3: Us information that we haven't gotten anywhere else, and then 2909 02:17:01,120 --> 02:17:03,080 Speaker 3: we start to hear it everywhere else a few days 2910 02:17:03,120 --> 02:17:04,879 Speaker 3: after you give it to us. So what is the 2911 02:17:04,959 --> 02:17:08,120 Speaker 3: latest on the Vegas slash, Oakland slash looking for a 2912 02:17:08,120 --> 02:17:08,840 Speaker 3: home aze? 2913 02:17:08,959 --> 02:17:11,160 Speaker 13: Well, let's revisit when I was on with you last 2914 02:17:11,200 --> 02:17:13,800 Speaker 13: week and again on with Arnie on Tuesday with Arnie 2915 02:17:13,840 --> 02:17:20,440 Speaker 13: and Steve. So the eighty second legislative session ended Monday 2916 02:17:20,520 --> 02:17:24,760 Speaker 13: night at midnight without even taking a vote. So I 2917 02:17:24,879 --> 02:17:28,600 Speaker 13: mentioned to you guys Tuesday, Saturday, and then Tuesday they're 2918 02:17:28,600 --> 02:17:30,760 Speaker 13: going to have to call a special session to get 2919 02:17:30,760 --> 02:17:34,280 Speaker 13: this done. Well that's exactly what Governor Joel Lombardo did 2920 02:17:34,360 --> 02:17:39,440 Speaker 13: on Wednesday. So they met and the dialogue was very contentious, 2921 02:17:39,560 --> 02:17:43,320 Speaker 13: and they ended their session on Thursday without taking a vote. 2922 02:17:43,320 --> 02:17:45,640 Speaker 13: Now I'm almost tell me the first voter is in 2923 02:17:45,680 --> 02:17:48,320 Speaker 13: the State Senate and there are twenty one senators and 2924 02:17:48,360 --> 02:17:52,080 Speaker 13: they just needed a simple eleven to ten majority. If 2925 02:17:52,080 --> 02:17:54,959 Speaker 13: it passes there, it goes to the State Assembly. Well, 2926 02:17:55,040 --> 02:17:58,480 Speaker 13: the session was contentious on Thursday. They didn't even vote. 2927 02:17:58,600 --> 02:18:00,840 Speaker 13: I was told that there were eight senators for it, 2928 02:18:00,920 --> 02:18:04,640 Speaker 13: eight against it, and five undecided. So they decided to 2929 02:18:04,720 --> 02:18:09,600 Speaker 13: take the weekend and adjourn and reconvene on Monday. And 2930 02:18:09,920 --> 02:18:11,640 Speaker 13: this is when I think all the horse trading is 2931 02:18:11,680 --> 02:18:14,920 Speaker 13: going on over the weekend. They're adding addendums to new bills, 2932 02:18:15,480 --> 02:18:19,959 Speaker 13: and there's probably gonna be some sweeteners in there for vegas. 2933 02:18:20,320 --> 02:18:22,480 Speaker 6: YadA, YadA, yad. Then the plot thickens again. 2934 02:18:22,520 --> 02:18:26,000 Speaker 13: Today it turns out State Assemblyman Steve Jegers says, why 2935 02:18:26,040 --> 02:18:27,680 Speaker 13: don't we put this off for a couple of weeks 2936 02:18:27,680 --> 02:18:30,720 Speaker 13: so we instead of the bill more closely, And Joel Lombardo, 2937 02:18:30,879 --> 02:18:34,080 Speaker 13: our governor, said nope, we're talking about this Monday. So 2938 02:18:34,120 --> 02:18:38,960 Speaker 13: it continues to be contentious. Then State Assemblyman Jaeger I 2939 02:18:39,040 --> 02:18:41,480 Speaker 13: think he tweeted it out. I haven't seen it against 2940 02:18:41,480 --> 02:18:45,760 Speaker 13: our better judgment, against our wishes. We're you know, we're 2941 02:18:46,000 --> 02:18:48,560 Speaker 13: reconvening too soon. I don't want this to be a 2942 02:18:48,640 --> 02:18:51,000 Speaker 13: ram jam session. We're not going to ram this thing through, 2943 02:18:51,400 --> 02:18:53,760 Speaker 13: So stay tuned. We'll see what happens Monday. In a 2944 02:18:53,800 --> 02:18:57,080 Speaker 13: perfect world, it passes in the Senate Monday, it goes 2945 02:18:57,120 --> 02:19:00,400 Speaker 13: to the State Assembly and they voted in too. We're 2946 02:19:00,400 --> 02:19:02,720 Speaker 13: nowhere near a perfect world. So this is a very 2947 02:19:02,760 --> 02:19:04,320 Speaker 13: fluid situation, Bernie. 2948 02:19:04,400 --> 02:19:07,040 Speaker 4: The stateum is supposed to build on the Strip. Where's 2949 02:19:07,040 --> 02:19:08,120 Speaker 4: that money coming from? 2950 02:19:09,000 --> 02:19:11,080 Speaker 13: Well, the a's are actually bringing a billion dollars of 2951 02:19:11,160 --> 02:19:13,960 Speaker 13: their own money, and then the rest of it is, 2952 02:19:14,200 --> 02:19:17,440 Speaker 13: you know, various entities. But the key is they want 2953 02:19:17,480 --> 02:19:19,520 Speaker 13: the city of Vegas and Clark County to pony up 2954 02:19:19,520 --> 02:19:21,760 Speaker 13: three hundred and eighty million dollars of it, and through 2955 02:19:21,760 --> 02:19:25,160 Speaker 13: a series of bond offerings and a tax district whereby 2956 02:19:25,600 --> 02:19:29,720 Speaker 13: property taxes and sales tax and payroll taxes would contribute, 2957 02:19:29,840 --> 02:19:33,039 Speaker 13: that would make up the difference. And therein lies the 2958 02:19:33,160 --> 02:19:36,520 Speaker 13: rub because there are a lot of folks here that 2959 02:19:36,600 --> 02:19:39,320 Speaker 13: don't have much of an appetite to give John Fisher, 2960 02:19:39,360 --> 02:19:41,040 Speaker 13: the billionaire owner of the A's and the Air of 2961 02:19:41,080 --> 02:19:44,400 Speaker 13: the Gap fortune, any money. And they're basically saying, wait 2962 02:19:44,400 --> 02:19:46,440 Speaker 13: a minute, we've got three hundred and eighty million, why 2963 02:19:46,440 --> 02:19:49,840 Speaker 13: can't it go towards school funding? Nevada ranks forty eighth 2964 02:19:49,879 --> 02:19:52,240 Speaker 13: in the nation in school funding. Why can't it go 2965 02:19:52,320 --> 02:19:55,480 Speaker 13: towards the children's hospital we want to build. That's where 2966 02:19:55,480 --> 02:19:59,240 Speaker 13: it That's where it really gets, you know, crazy Arnie. 2967 02:19:59,400 --> 02:20:02,840 Speaker 13: So that three hundred and eighty men, that final part 2968 02:20:03,120 --> 02:20:04,119 Speaker 13: is what they're fighting. 2969 02:20:03,879 --> 02:20:05,720 Speaker 2: Over, Arnie. 2970 02:20:06,400 --> 02:20:09,080 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, Arnie's point there's certainly well taken. I want 2971 02:20:09,080 --> 02:20:11,720 Speaker 3: to stay in Vegas, but in a different way, Bernie, 2972 02:20:11,760 --> 02:20:16,480 Speaker 3: and talk about the Colts. Isaiah Man Isaiah Rodgers this story. 2973 02:20:17,480 --> 02:20:19,520 Speaker 3: I don't know whether or not he's betting on the Colts, 2974 02:20:19,520 --> 02:20:20,840 Speaker 3: betting against the Colts. 2975 02:20:20,920 --> 02:20:22,640 Speaker 2: I was reading Connor. 2976 02:20:22,360 --> 02:20:25,720 Speaker 3: Orr's article about this at si dot Com and it 2977 02:20:25,840 --> 02:20:28,200 Speaker 3: was talking about how he's coming off his best season 2978 02:20:28,320 --> 02:20:32,840 Speaker 3: as a pro. But how big a problem is this 2979 02:20:32,959 --> 02:20:34,360 Speaker 3: for the National Football League? 2980 02:20:35,320 --> 02:20:36,560 Speaker 6: Well, I don't think it's a big problem. 2981 02:20:36,600 --> 02:20:39,160 Speaker 13: I'm gonna be honest, guys, because there are seventeen hundred 2982 02:20:39,160 --> 02:20:41,680 Speaker 13: players and we're talking about half a dozen, and we 2983 02:20:41,760 --> 02:20:45,600 Speaker 13: have checks and balances, and we have guardrails and plenty 2984 02:20:45,600 --> 02:20:49,800 Speaker 13: of reportage and you know, all sorts of metadata, and 2985 02:20:49,840 --> 02:20:53,640 Speaker 13: Big Brother truly is watching. And I had Matt Holt, 2986 02:20:53,680 --> 02:20:55,960 Speaker 13: the president of US Integrity, who partners with all the 2987 02:20:55,959 --> 02:20:59,240 Speaker 13: major leagues, talking about what they do. 2988 02:20:59,320 --> 02:21:01,840 Speaker 6: It's the old if you see something, say something. 2989 02:21:01,879 --> 02:21:04,680 Speaker 13: So I think it's more of a problem where these 2990 02:21:04,800 --> 02:21:07,440 Speaker 13: NFL players just have to pay attention in meetings and 2991 02:21:07,560 --> 02:21:11,480 Speaker 13: understanding these symposiums. Don't bet on any NFL game, period 2992 02:21:11,800 --> 02:21:14,200 Speaker 13: And if you want to bet, fine, just don't do 2993 02:21:14,240 --> 02:21:17,279 Speaker 13: it in any team facility that includes a team playing team, hotel, 2994 02:21:17,760 --> 02:21:21,880 Speaker 13: practice squad, or practice facility. You get the picture. So 2995 02:21:22,640 --> 02:21:26,480 Speaker 13: let's talk about Isaiah Rodgers because this one, it's the 2996 02:21:26,680 --> 02:21:29,480 Speaker 13: investigation is very cryptic, but there appears to be a 2997 02:21:29,520 --> 02:21:32,560 Speaker 13: lot of moving parts here, and it's been reported that 2998 02:21:32,600 --> 02:21:37,400 Speaker 13: he plays hundreds of bets, primarily in the fifty dollars range, 2999 02:21:37,680 --> 02:21:40,879 Speaker 13: nothing egregious. But there have been allegations, and I have 3000 02:21:40,959 --> 02:21:43,360 Speaker 13: no idea if they're true, that he may have bet 3001 02:21:43,400 --> 02:21:45,760 Speaker 13: on games involving his own team. Again, I have no 3002 02:21:45,840 --> 02:21:48,560 Speaker 13: idea if they're true, but that's been banned about if 3003 02:21:48,560 --> 02:21:51,880 Speaker 13: that were the case, Commissioner Goadell, Emperor Goodell, whatever you 3004 02:21:51,920 --> 02:21:54,440 Speaker 13: want to call him, he has total autonomy and authority 3005 02:21:54,440 --> 02:21:56,480 Speaker 13: to do anything he wants. He can ban a guy 3006 02:21:56,520 --> 02:21:59,560 Speaker 13: for life. So it's a problem for Isiah Rodgers, which 3007 02:21:59,600 --> 02:22:02,400 Speaker 13: you're still starting to see if players wake up and 3008 02:22:02,440 --> 02:22:05,680 Speaker 13: take more personal responsibility and realize what's happening. And I 3009 02:22:05,720 --> 02:22:08,800 Speaker 13: think they're talking amongst themselves. But if I'm being honest, 3010 02:22:09,080 --> 02:22:12,160 Speaker 13: I don't think this is a serious problem because we're 3011 02:22:12,200 --> 02:22:14,720 Speaker 13: talking about less than a half of percent of all 3012 02:22:14,720 --> 02:22:15,840 Speaker 13: the players in the league. 3013 02:22:16,000 --> 02:22:18,360 Speaker 6: Boys will be boys. They just need to pay attention. 3014 02:22:18,680 --> 02:22:21,240 Speaker 5: You know what's the problem. It's not betting on the games, Bertie, 3015 02:22:21,280 --> 02:22:23,560 Speaker 5: This is not what that scares me. And you kept 3016 02:22:23,600 --> 02:22:26,600 Speaker 5: saying that you can't bet on NFL games. 3017 02:22:27,000 --> 02:22:28,879 Speaker 4: What about NFL props? 3018 02:22:28,920 --> 02:22:31,120 Speaker 5: Like, if is there going to be a fumble, is 3019 02:22:31,160 --> 02:22:34,280 Speaker 5: there going to be an interception? You can't do that either, 3020 02:22:34,400 --> 02:22:36,920 Speaker 5: But I mean there's a chance you can manipulate that 3021 02:22:37,000 --> 02:22:37,720 Speaker 5: a little bit more. 3022 02:22:38,680 --> 02:22:41,320 Speaker 13: Yeah, you're not allowed to bet on anything you bring. 3023 02:22:41,560 --> 02:22:44,680 Speaker 13: That's an excellent point, aren't he. The bottom line is 3024 02:22:45,160 --> 02:22:48,240 Speaker 13: you are not allowed to bet on any NFL game, 3025 02:22:48,320 --> 02:22:51,880 Speaker 13: whether it's the side, the total, the first half, you know, 3026 02:22:52,280 --> 02:22:56,320 Speaker 13: prop bets, how many packs, any of that stuff. 3027 02:22:56,360 --> 02:22:59,039 Speaker 6: You just simply aren't. And that's taking a step further. 3028 02:22:59,640 --> 02:23:00,480 Speaker 6: If you are. 3029 02:23:00,360 --> 02:23:03,039 Speaker 13: Employed by the NFL, I don't care. If you're an 3030 02:23:03,080 --> 02:23:05,960 Speaker 13: assistant coach, I don't care, if you're the secretary, chief 3031 02:23:05,959 --> 02:23:09,039 Speaker 13: cook and bottle washer, the salary cap specialist. You're not 3032 02:23:09,040 --> 02:23:11,680 Speaker 13: allowed to bet on anything, period. So if your life 3033 02:23:12,040 --> 02:23:15,039 Speaker 13: needs betting to survive, then don't work in the NFL. 3034 02:23:15,320 --> 02:23:18,439 Speaker 13: Because and there's an issue that I think is more problematic, 3035 02:23:18,959 --> 02:23:22,600 Speaker 13: because if information gets out, untoward information gets out. If 3036 02:23:22,640 --> 02:23:24,360 Speaker 13: all of a sudden, you know, Joe Blatz, who's working 3037 02:23:24,360 --> 02:23:26,959 Speaker 13: for one of the teams, says, hey, you know, Trevor 3038 02:23:27,000 --> 02:23:29,920 Speaker 13: Lawrence has been limping around all week, he's not moving well, 3039 02:23:30,160 --> 02:23:32,560 Speaker 13: and all of a sudden, the Jaguars go from minus 3040 02:23:32,560 --> 02:23:35,280 Speaker 13: seven to minus five, and that kind of information gets 3041 02:23:35,280 --> 02:23:38,520 Speaker 13: out there, which is rampant during bull season. It's rampant 3042 02:23:38,560 --> 02:23:42,520 Speaker 13: during college football, it's all. It's rampant during the draft. 3043 02:23:42,560 --> 02:23:45,000 Speaker 13: A lot of this game is an information game that 3044 02:23:45,200 --> 02:23:48,880 Speaker 13: I think is potentially more problematic for the NFL than 3045 02:23:48,920 --> 02:23:51,400 Speaker 13: players throwing a few shekels down a game when they're 3046 02:23:51,400 --> 02:23:53,840 Speaker 13: not supposed to, especially if it's not an NFL game. 3047 02:23:54,360 --> 02:23:58,080 Speaker 2: One final question. You let off by talking about the 3048 02:23:58,120 --> 02:24:01,160 Speaker 2: Golden Knights in the NHL as well as the NBA Finals, 3049 02:24:01,200 --> 02:24:02,920 Speaker 2: and both of them could come to an end here 3050 02:24:02,959 --> 02:24:07,360 Speaker 2: in a matter of days. But tell me about the 3051 02:24:07,400 --> 02:24:10,480 Speaker 2: bet on the Golden Knights that's out there and how 3052 02:24:10,560 --> 02:24:11,959 Speaker 2: much money is out there to be won. 3053 02:24:12,240 --> 02:24:15,000 Speaker 13: Yes, back on November first, the gentleman by the name 3054 02:24:15,000 --> 02:24:18,760 Speaker 13: of John Grace placed a three team one hundred dollars 3055 02:24:18,840 --> 02:24:24,199 Speaker 13: futures parlay at Circus Sports Book, and it involved again 3056 02:24:24,240 --> 02:24:27,879 Speaker 13: this is November first. He bet on Argentina to win 3057 02:24:27,920 --> 02:24:31,119 Speaker 13: the World Cup at seven to one, the Denver Nuggets 3058 02:24:31,160 --> 02:24:34,640 Speaker 13: to win the NBA's Western Conference at nine to one, 3059 02:24:35,120 --> 02:24:37,520 Speaker 13: and the Knights to win the Stanley Cup at ten 3060 02:24:37,560 --> 02:24:40,240 Speaker 13: to one.

Yeah, we got Chris Purfett, an 3287 02:35:26,640 --> 02:35:28,520 Speaker 3: expert on these sorts of issues. 3288 02:35:29,200 --> 02:35:32,160 Speaker 2: Talk to me about Lionel Messi real quick here, Chris. 3289 02:35:31,959 --> 02:35:35,120 Speaker 7: So, Leonel Messi is, they haven't settled yet, but he 3290 02:35:35,240 --> 02:35:38,920 Speaker 7: is going to sign with Inter Miami in Major League Soccer, 3291 02:35:38,959 --> 02:35:44,480 Speaker 7: which means he's coming stateside. And Leonel Messi is, Look, 3292 02:35:44,520 --> 02:35:48,720 Speaker 7: we've got Pele historically in Maridona. But Messi was kind 3293 02:35:48,760 --> 02:35:51,080 Speaker 7: of in this one two race with Christiano Ronaldo as 3294 02:35:51,280 --> 02:35:55,600 Speaker 7: like greatest of a fifty year generation or so. And 3295 02:35:55,920 --> 02:35:58,720 Speaker 7: he's coming over coming off winning a World Cup. He's 3296 02:35:58,720 --> 02:36:02,000 Speaker 7: still got a lot of really good soccer left in him. 3297 02:36:02,280 --> 02:36:04,160 Speaker 7: And I think the only thing that's really kept people 3298 02:36:04,240 --> 02:36:06,879 Speaker 7: from really this man is a global celebrity. He has 3299 02:36:06,920 --> 02:36:10,600 Speaker 7: nearly half a billion followers on Instagram half a billion, 3300 02:36:11,280 --> 02:36:15,119 Speaker 7: so he's a big deal. He plays an incredibly great way. 3301 02:36:15,480 --> 02:36:16,960 Speaker 7: I think what's really hurt him is he's just been 3302 02:36:17,000 --> 02:36:19,200 Speaker 7: playing with Paris Saint Germain the last few years, which 3303 02:36:19,760 --> 02:36:22,240 Speaker 7: even with stuff like the English League over here and 3304 02:36:22,560 --> 02:36:26,400 Speaker 7: ESPN carrying La Liga, you can't get the French League one. 3305 02:36:27,040 --> 02:36:31,080 Speaker 7: But he's going to go to Miami. Already, these interests 3306 02:36:31,160 --> 02:36:34,879 Speaker 7: have skyrocketed in Miami. I think ticket sales have already 3307 02:36:34,959 --> 02:36:39,640 Speaker 7: increased by a magnitude of five times in price. The 3308 02:36:39,920 --> 02:36:41,760 Speaker 7: gear is selling out and they haven't even gotten a 3309 02:36:42,200 --> 02:36:46,520 Speaker 7: a jersey for him, and he's getting cut in some 3310 02:36:46,560 --> 02:36:50,040 Speaker 7: weird ways, like Saudi Arabia kind of is doing in 3311 02:36:50,080 --> 02:36:52,440 Speaker 7: soccer what Live golf was, what they were doing with 3312 02:36:52,480 --> 02:36:55,200 Speaker 7: live golf in the PGA. They're just spending money everywhere. 3313 02:36:55,520 --> 02:36:57,520 Speaker 7: But it sounds like he's gonna get some revenue sharing 3314 02:36:57,560 --> 02:37:01,320 Speaker 7: with like Apple TV, who carries the dreaming with Adidas, 3315 02:37:01,360 --> 02:37:04,520 Speaker 7: who has his lifetime contract. It's a huge deal, and 3316 02:37:05,120 --> 02:37:07,400 Speaker 7: just all over the I think all over the country 3317 02:37:07,400 --> 02:37:09,520 Speaker 7: people are going to get a really good glimpse at 3318 02:37:09,520 --> 02:37:12,360 Speaker 7: a player who has just been utterly phenomenal what he's 3319 02:37:12,400 --> 02:37:13,400 Speaker 7: been doing for a long time. 3320 02:37:13,440 --> 02:37:14,480 Speaker 4: You know, I just want to say this. 3321 02:37:14,640 --> 02:37:18,200 Speaker 5: I can't the way the soccer guys are, you know, 3322 02:37:18,320 --> 02:37:21,160 Speaker 5: overseas and the way, the fans just just go crazy 3323 02:37:21,200 --> 02:37:23,680 Speaker 5: for them. I the only person I could think of, 3324 02:37:24,280 --> 02:37:29,200 Speaker 5: actor or actress, singer, athlete that gets that type of 3325 02:37:29,200 --> 02:37:32,000 Speaker 5: attention maybe Lebron Still, I mean, if I told you 3326 02:37:32,080 --> 02:37:34,080 Speaker 5: Lebron was at the local Starbucks, I don't know how 3327 02:37:34,120 --> 02:37:35,760 Speaker 5: many people would actually run down there. 3328 02:37:35,959 --> 02:37:37,279 Speaker 4: And maybe Taylor Swift. 3329 02:37:37,320 --> 02:37:40,440 Speaker 5: But other than that, I right, Taylor Swift, if I 3330 02:37:40,480 --> 02:37:43,160 Speaker 5: told you she was down at the Starbucks, it'd be 3331 02:37:43,240 --> 02:37:45,600 Speaker 5: a big mob seed down there. Other than that, though, 3332 02:37:46,000 --> 02:37:48,280 Speaker 5: nothing like these soccer guys. It's crazy. 3333 02:37:48,320 --> 02:37:52,800 Speaker 7: It's straight cele not not sort sports superstar, straight super celebrity. 3334 02:37:52,959 --> 02:37:58,000 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yeah, it's definitely. It's kind of look MLS. 3335 02:37:58,280 --> 02:37:59,959 Speaker 2: They got a little bit of a buzz when beck 3336 02:38:00,240 --> 02:38:02,520 Speaker 2: came over, but this is a completely different animal than that. 3337 02:38:02,560 --> 02:38:05,279 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously he was a giant celebrity as well, 3338 02:38:05,320 --> 02:38:09,039 Speaker 2: but half a billion Instagram followers, aren't he. I mean, 3339 02:38:09,360 --> 02:38:10,640 Speaker 2: by the way, Beckham, no one. 3340 02:38:10,840 --> 02:38:12,880 Speaker 7: He is kind of getting the same deal Beckham did. 3341 02:38:12,879 --> 02:38:15,320 Speaker 7: He's taking less money to chip in and get a 3342 02:38:15,320 --> 02:38:17,200 Speaker 7: lot of revenue sharing, and kind of the word is 3343 02:38:17,240 --> 02:38:19,320 Speaker 7: he might try to do what Beckham did and buy 3344 02:38:19,360 --> 02:38:22,480 Speaker 7: a team, which, by the way, inner Miami is David 3345 02:38:22,480 --> 02:38:23,040 Speaker 7: Beckham's tea. 3346 02:38:23,200 --> 02:38:24,640 Speaker 4: Yes, he made a lot of money off that. 3347 02:38:24,800 --> 02:38:26,800 Speaker 7: He's gonna make more now that MESSI is coming here. 3348 02:38:26,959 --> 02:38:29,400 Speaker 5: Yes, exactly. He bought it for like twenty five million 3349 02:38:29,480 --> 02:38:32,440 Speaker 5: or something like that. Expansion rights, right, yeah, yeah, exactly. 3350 02:38:33,000 --> 02:38:35,280 Speaker 2: This just in money is important. 3351 02:38:35,520 --> 02:38:39,320 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, that's just king cash is king. 3352 02:38:39,720 --> 02:38:41,720 Speaker 2: That's the analysis we're gonna leave you with, all right. 3353 02:38:41,760 --> 02:38:45,800 Speaker 2: Game five is Monday. Tell me that Miami is going 3354 02:38:45,879 --> 02:38:48,080 Speaker 2: to keep this thing alive for one more game? Aren't he? 3355 02:38:48,240 --> 02:38:50,199 Speaker 5: They're not going to keep it alive for one more game? 3356 02:38:50,600 --> 02:38:53,840 Speaker 5: Denver wins at two hundred to nothing. No, it's it's 3357 02:38:54,360 --> 02:38:57,920 Speaker 5: just it's not gonna you know, it's actually gonna be 3358 02:38:58,200 --> 02:39:00,760 Speaker 5: about like a fifteen to twenty point when. I think 3359 02:39:00,800 --> 02:39:02,840 Speaker 5: once Denver gets out to the lead, they'll put their 3360 02:39:03,080 --> 02:39:05,200 Speaker 5: foot down on the gas. They won't let up because 3361 02:39:05,200 --> 02:39:08,720 Speaker 5: it's the championship and they'll blow Miami out of this 3362 02:39:08,760 --> 02:39:11,400 Speaker 5: one and the crowd will have something to celebrate. 3363 02:39:11,440 --> 02:39:12,680 Speaker 4: This one will be over at halftime. 3364 02:39:13,360 --> 02:39:15,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I don't think it's gonna be quite 3365 02:39:15,560 --> 02:39:17,200 Speaker 2: that much of a blowout. I kind of think it's 3366 02:39:17,200 --> 02:39:18,840 Speaker 2: gonna end up being like a seven or eight point 3367 02:39:18,879 --> 02:39:22,160 Speaker 2: game where Miami gives it all they can, but Denver 3368 02:39:22,280 --> 02:39:23,879 Speaker 2: just kind of keeps them at arm's length. 3369 02:39:23,959 --> 02:39:27,000 Speaker 3: Denver's just a better team. They're a deeper team. They've 3370 02:39:27,000 --> 02:39:29,520 Speaker 3: got more ways to hurt you. They're ready for this 3371 02:39:29,600 --> 02:39:33,359 Speaker 3: moment and there look they're gonna be a deserving champion. 3372 02:39:33,440 --> 02:39:34,200 Speaker 2: They truly are. 3373 02:39:35,600 --> 02:39:38,160 Speaker 3: It's too bad the finals hasn't provided the kind of 3374 02:39:38,160 --> 02:39:40,840 Speaker 3: fireworks we were hoping for.
