1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 2: Well, that's right, you heard the man. It is that

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: time of week. My name is Bernie Frider. We are

4
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 2: coming to you alive from the tyrac dot com studios

5

Speaker 2: Tyrac dot com. The way tire buying should be as usual.

9
00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 2: A very eventful day. The Orlando Magic Force the game seven,

10
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 2: the Minnesota Timberwolves draw first blood. The Mystic Dan wins

11
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby in the photo finish eighteen to one odds.

12
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 2: But I want to start by getting something off my chest.

13
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: You know, years ago, Lebron James was asked the question, Lebron,

14
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: how many coaches do you want to get fired in

15
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: your career? And I believe our man Shay has that sound.

16
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: Let's give it a listen, all right, I thought we

17
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 2: had the sound, but we don't. We'll come back to

18
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: that later before we get to these other topics. Before

19
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 2: we get to these other topics, I want to get

20
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 2: something off my chest because I went to bed last

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: night started thinking about it after my Friday show, and

22
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 2: I just want to start by saying, I think Darvin

23
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 2: Ham was railroaded. Now let me build my case. By

24
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 2: the way, I covered the two thousand and four Detroit

25
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 2: Pistons NBA champions coach by Larry Brown. They beat the

26
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 2: Lakers in a five game suite. Darvinham was a player

27
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,680
Speaker 2: on that team. He appeared in fifty four games. He

28
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: only started two, average one point eight points per game.

29
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: What do I remember about Darvin Ham? Because I might

30
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 2: have talked to him maybe once, a good guy, a

31
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: nice guy, and he might say, well, Bernie, what the

32
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: hell does that have to do with the price of rice?

33
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 2: Because the truth of the matter is the Lakers don't

34
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: need a coach. They need someone who can manage an

35
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,519
Speaker 2: adult daycare center. The truth of the matter is when

36
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: you look the eras, you look at the eras in

37
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 2: the history of the Lakers. The Lakers are a franchise

38
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 2: that is defined by their eras. You've got the Will

39
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: Chamberlain era and Baylor and West, and then that was

40
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: followed by Magic and Kareem and then the Kobe Shack era.

41
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: There was at least demonicam of stability and dignity during

42
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: those eras. As I said last night, this feels very

43
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: clunky to me. Darvin Ham is just simply the latest scapegoat.

44
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 2: Six coaches have tried to fill Phil Jackson's shoes in

45
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: the past thirteen years. None has lasted more than three seasons.

46
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: Darvin Ham the latest casualty. I guess you could maybe

47
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 2: call him the sacrificial Ham. He took the fall. He

48
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: was fired Friday after just two seasons, in spite of

49
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: the fact he was ninety and seventy four in the

50
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 2: regular season, got to the Western Conference Finals last season,

51
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: got back to the playoffs this season, and again. Of

52
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: those six coaches that have tried to fill Phil Jackson's shoes,

53
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 2: two actually went on to win Coach of the Year

54
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 2: in subsequent jobs. Mike Brown did it with the Sacramento

55
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 2: Kings last season and Mike D'Antoni did it with the

56
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: Houston Rockets in twenty eighteen. What does that tell us, Well,

57
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 2: it indicates maybe it's not the quality of the coach

58
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: that determines success or failure. When you're on the biggest

59
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 2: stage in the NBA, and yes, the Lakers I believe

60
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: is the biggest stage in the NBA, not New York,

61
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 2: not Boston, LA. It's how the coach manages everything else

62
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 2: that comes along with all the Michigan Gotson guiding this

63
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: glamour franchise, the culture that puts its stars first, whether

64
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 2: you like it or not, the bigger lights, the magnified lights,

65
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 2: the pressure, the pressurized history. Darvin Ham, actually I thought

66
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: excelled in his first season with the Lakers because he

67
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 2: was very shrewd in navigating the franchise through many awkward situations.

68
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 2: You've already forgotten about the Russell Westbrook erow. And it's

69
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: my understanding that last year, and I'm gonna talk about

70
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 2: this with Mark Medin at Midnight, Ham was able to

71
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: somewhat forge a fairly strong bond with the team superstars,

72
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 2: which were of course Lebron James and Anthony Davis. No

73
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 2: one expected the Lakers to get to the NBA West

74
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 2: Finals last year. Well maybe Nick Wright and Channon Sharp,

75
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: but who else beyond that. So what we're looking at

76
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: here is a situation where Darvin Ham, I guess it

77
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 2: was his turn on the hot seat the minute he

78
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 2: sign that contract with the Lakers. You know it's a

79
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: hot seat job. You know, it's a tempt job. You

80
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 2: know it's probably not going to end well, and it hasn't.

81
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 2: And the truth of the matter is a lot of

82
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: teams in the NBA look around and they say, we

83
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 2: can get to the playoffs, we can maybe get to

84
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 2: the finals. They may not say it in public, but

85
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 2: they say it behind closed doors. They fancied themselves as contenders.

86
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: Most of them have already gone home. Now that's the

87
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 2: predictable result. And typically you fire a coach because he

88
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 2: loses the locker room, or the players don't like him anymore,

89
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 2: or the players lose faith in him, or the front

90
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 2: office can no longer convince the players he's the right guy.

91
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 2: But no one raised their hand and stuck up for

92
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 2: Darvin Ham. Lebron could have. If he would have, Darvin

93
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: Ham would not have been fired. But the truth is,

94
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 2: if you look at what happened with the Lakers this year,

95
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 2: and you look across the NBA, two thirds of the

96
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 2: coaches could be fired if you really wanted to him,

97
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 2: if you really needed a reason. Really, the Lakers, they

98
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 2: can keep a coach, they can do whatever they want,

99
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,679
Speaker 2: but the coach is not the center of the team

100
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: in my view. In in Los Angeles. The coaches in

101
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 2: the star, the players are, the players are. In fact,

102
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 2: Lebron is so powerful frankly, you wonder if he should

103
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: be the coach. And again it was asked to Lebron

104
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: years ago, Lebron, how many coaches do you think you'll

105
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 2: get fired in your career? I think Shay's got the

106
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: number now, not Clue, not three, not pool By, not Thick.

107
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: And when I said, I really believe it, Yeah, I

108
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: believe it too. We're up to six. We're up to six.

109
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 2: And as a Jason Martin Appley pointed out him and

110
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 2: Aaron to do a great job Saturday nights. He tried

111
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 2: to get Lebron, tried to get Eric Spolster fire as well.

112
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: Pat Riley not on a not up in here, not

113
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: having it. Now, assuming Lebron James returns for a seventh

114
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 2: season in Los Angeles, which I will be beyond shocked

115
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: if he doesn't, it's already going to be his fourth

116
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 2: coach as a Laker. And it was happening even before Lebron.

117
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: Ten coaches in twenty one season. That's an average of

118
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 2: two years. Then goodbye, good night. Get the home version

119
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: of the game on the way out. So apparently Darvin

120
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 2: Ham was just right on time. But let me ask

121
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 2: you a question. Pick any coach you want, current, prior,

122
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: dead or alive. I don't care if you want pat Riley,

123
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: Phil Jackson, Chuck Day, Red Aurbach, Red Klots, I don't care.

124
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 2: Larry Brown. Take a look at this roster and tell

125
00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 2: me if you really believe with a straight face looking

126
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 2: at a championship team, you're looking at a championship contender.

127
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 2: Sure as held out in this version of the NBA

128
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 2: and not now. And the truth of the matter is

129
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 2: the front office to take a real hard look in

130
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 2: the mirror. The Lakers had some good things this year.

131
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 2: Lebron played more than seventy games. AD played more than

132
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 2: seventy games. D'Angel Russell I believe played more than seventy games.

133
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 2: But if you really break it down, the Lakers were

134
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,719
Speaker 2: defined by their inconsistency. That's a fact. Yeah, they won

135
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: the n Season Tournament and that was somewhat impressive. But

136
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: then right after that game in Vegas here where they

137
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 2: won that infamous N Season tournament, they went two to nine,

138
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 2: and that, I guess was blamed on Darvin Ham because

139
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 2: he was just he was inconsistently using a roster that,

140
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 2: for all intents and purposes, really wasn't constructed as well

141
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: as people wanted it to be, or people was sold

142
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 2: that it was. You know, and you can give Darvinham

143
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 2: a hard time that perhaps you didn't call timeouts at

144
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: the right time, and maybe he should have just kind

145
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 2: of shrugged off Anthony Davis's comments when he talked about

146
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 2: they don't know what they're doing during stretches of the game.

147
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 2: Sometimes the players don't turn out the way they think

148
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 2: we should. That sets things up as frustration. Darvin Ham said,

149
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 2: that's basketball. That's basketball. Now. Darvin Haam may have not

150
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 2: appeared to people as a confident guy, but he gave

151
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 2: his players what they needed. I believe he gave Anthony

152
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 2: Davis validation. He tried to work things out, and I

153
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 2: think you've got to give a guy a margin of error.

154
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: Steve kerr Met, you know, won sixty seven games in

155
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 2: a championship the first year he was coaching at Golden State.

156
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: Was that because of him or was it because they

157
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 2: had a roster that could do that? And I think

158
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 2: that the Russell Darvinham was a company man, and I

159
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 2: think that his willingness to try to really make the

160
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook thing workout, which turned into, you know, a

161
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 2: disaster of the complete fiasco, and he tried to manage

162
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,599
Speaker 2: through that. I think they held that against him, that

163
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 2: took away as part of his marginal veria. Finally the

164
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 2: Lakers got rid of him, and then they bring in

165
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 2: D'Angelo Russell, and then I think that there are people

166
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 2: who have questioned whether or not Rob Holncoln should have

167
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: tried to get Mike Conley. But Darvinham, in my view,

168
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 2: was never truly given the benefit of the doubt, and

169
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 2: that to me, therein lies the issue. And I think

170
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 2: that the Lakers have overestimated, frankly for the Lakers fans Lakers,

171
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 2: if you want to call it, that, they've really sort

172
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 2: of overestimated what the team's capabilities are. Denver. You know,

173
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 2: you saw what Minnesota did Saturday night, And make no

174
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 2: mistake right now, it appears, certainly in the Western Conference

175
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: and maybe in the entire NBA, the road to the

176
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: NBA Championship goes through Denver. And in the last nine

177
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 2: playoff games, the Lakers are one and eight against Denver,

178
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 2: and I'm not sure they would have gotten by Dallas

179
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 2: with Luke and Kyrie, and I'm not sure they wouldn't

180
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,559
Speaker 2: gotten my Minnesota, and they might have gotten by Oklahoma

181
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 2: City with their experience. But we're never gonna know. So

182
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 2: who's next? Who really wants that job? I don't know.

183
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 2: I don't know. Be careful what you wish for. I

184
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 2: know that sounds cliche, and maybe it is, but the

185
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: truth of the matter is, I mean, look at the

186
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 2: Milwaukee Bucks. They were thirty and thirteen at one time

187
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 2: and they fired Andrian Griffin Doc Rivers took over and

188
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 2: was nineteen and twenty three. You only they don't make

189
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 2: excuses about injuries and how was your day? Come it up?

190
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 2: You know what, maybe there is a changing of the guard.

191
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: Because if you watched what happened Saturday night, Anthony Edwards

192
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,560
Speaker 2: really did out duel Nicole Joki and the Wolves swoop

193
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: into Denver, game one, altitude and everything, in front of

194
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 2: God and everybody, and they steal one. This is going

195
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 2: to be fun to watch. I don't need Lebron to

196
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 2: enjoy the NBA Finals for the NBA Playoffs, and maybe

197
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: we don't need Darvin Ham. I guess at least the

198
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 2: Lakers say they don't, but I will tell you I

199
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 2: think he was a nice guy, and the Lakers maybe

200
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 2: can use a nice guy because whoever takes that job,

201
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 2: they'll lose some coaching and if they win, they won't

202
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 2: get the credit. If they lose, they'll certainly get to blame.

203
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: But they better bring one skill, and that is the

204
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 2: ability to oversee and manage an adult daycare center, because

205
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 2: that's what that job description should be. I'm Bernie Fradderwick

214
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,080

00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 2: Radio Company, live from the Tarak dot Com studios here

224
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio. We will take you

225
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,079
Speaker 2: up to three am Pacific, six am Eastern. Lots of

226
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 2: stuff to get to you. We are just getting started,

227
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 2: and apparently so are the Minnesota Timberwolves. It's one thing

228
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 2: to hail Caesar. It's one thing to conquerence Caesar. Obviously,

229
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 2: the t Wolves showed up, showed out beat Denver one

230
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 2: oh six ninety nine Saturday night game one of the

231
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 2: Western Conference semifinals, and yes, Anthony Edwards stole the show

232
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: period game set match forty three points, seventeen to twenty

233
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: nine from the floor just for fun, seven rebounds, three assists,

234
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: even blocked a couple of shots. Third career forty point

235
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 2: playoff game. Now, why is that significant? It's the most

236
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: in Timberwolves franchise is street And by the way, Anthony Edwards. Now,

237
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 2: in doing that, Wollis joined some pretty elite company second

238
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 2: player in NBA history to notch consecutive forty point playoff games.

239
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: And did I mention that, I forget to mention Anthony

240
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 2: Edwards is twenty two years old. The other player to

241
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 2: do that Kobe Bryant. Anthony Edwards also just the tenth

242
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 2: player in NBA history to register at least thirty five

243
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 2: points in three consecutive road playoff games. And that's pretty

244
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 2: damn good list too, Lebron, Kevin Durant, Kobe, and on

245
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 2: and on and on. He's already a legend, and he

246
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 2: is a guy that I think maybe you know, you

247
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 2: talk about who might be the next face of the NBA.

248
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. It's like arguing about

249
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 2: your favorite newland to play the spaghetti but eventually, but

250
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 2: you gotta win, and you gotta win in the postseason

251
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 2: if you want to be on that list. So with

252
00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 2: what Anthony Edwards is doing, and let's not forget he

253
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 2: outdueled nikolay Okick, and I think most reasonable people would

254
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 2: agree then for the best team in the NBA, and

255
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: they are the defending champs, and they have a very

256
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 2: good chance to certainly get to the NBA Finals a

257
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: game and perhaps repeat and I do expect them to

258
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 2: acquit themselves in game two, but they still got to

259
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 2: get on the floor and do it. But when you

260
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 2: watch Anthony Edwards, he's got that look of a guy

261
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 2: that he's not like just any other young star. He's

262
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: not like any other dude. He may have had a

263
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 2: coming out party tonight. Some people might call it a

264
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 2: statement game, but I think someone mentioned that to Anthony

265
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 2: Edwards in the postgame he said, quote, it's not about

266
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 2: introducing ourselves to nobody. We know who we are. When

267
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: he was asked about the Timberwolves finally playing past the

268
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 2: first round of the playoffs for the first time since

269
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 2: two thousand and four when they had Kevin Garnett. If

270
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 2: you're scoring an home or even if you're by yourself,

271
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 2: the Wolves beat the Sacramento Kings in the second round.

272
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 2: In twenty oh four, they actually got to the conference finals,

273
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 2: the only time the t Wolves done it in history.

274
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 2: Give it up to the Timberwolves. They're five to zero

275
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. They swept Phoenix, and again you're hearing

276
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards's name mentioned among the game's elite, the game's

277
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 2: historic elite. Everybody knows he's a special player. Everybody knows

278
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 2: he's a special talent athletically skill wise, but you've still

279
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 2: got to win. Now he's getting his respect, and that

280
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 2: talent is translating into playoff performances on the road in

281
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: difficult environments. And not for nothing, Nikoleokick. Yet as usual

282
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 2: thirty two points, none assists, sate rebounds, three steals, only

283
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 2: eleven or twenty five from the field, even turned the

284
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 2: ball over seven times. And give some credit to Karl

285
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 2: Anthony Towns and Rudy go O, Baron Niles reed. So

286
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 2: again Anthony Edwards, though was it was a men among

287
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 2: other men, a beggar man. I don't want to say

288
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: menimum boys. That wouldn't be right because there's a lot

289
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: of studs in this game. I think there's a lot

290
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 2: of talent in that game. Like goodness that was. That

291
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,719
Speaker 2: was a game to watch from a town standpoint. You

292
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 2: see things that fans pay money for. Edwards again, seventeen

293
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 2: to twenty nine, seven rebounds, three assistant steal, two blocks,

294
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 2: only turned the ball over once. And there's another really

295
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: cool thing about Anthony Edwards, even though he you know,

296
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 2: put the team on his back for all intents and purposes.

297
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 2: For a lot of the game, he still deferred to

298
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 2: the opponent. He gives his credit to his teammates. He says, quote,

299
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 2: going in the going against the best player in the

300
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 2: world is always fun. Going against the best team in

301
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 2: the world is always fun. Our guys came out and

302
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 2: competed tonight. So it's not about me personally, it's about

303
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 2: my team. They gave me confidence also. And from the

304
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 2: minute from the jump, the key Wolves take the floor

305
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 2: and Edwards was perfect. Started the game five or five.

306
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 2: The Wolves come out of the gate in eighteen four

307
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 2: run in the first seven minutes. It was reminiscent of

308
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 2: what the Lakers did, frankly, and then the Nuggets battled

309
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,360
Speaker 2: back to actually take the lead by halftime. And it's

310
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,679
Speaker 2: sort of an oddity. This is the first time all

311
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 2: playoffs so far away, I know, the playoffs just getting started.

312
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 2: We only had one round. The Nuggets haven't led it

313
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 2: halftime in any of their other playoff games this year.

314
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 2: But when you got to the fourth quarter the NBA,

315
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: and the fourth quarter is like an NFL quarterback when

316
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 2: it's third down or in the red zone. We're in

317
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. The fourth quarter is the money quarter

318
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 2: that belonged to Anthony Edwards. And oh, by the way,

319
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 2: nas Reed, I believe Reid was the sixth Man of

320
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 2: the Year in the NBA this year, and Anthony Edwards

321
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 2: was actually held scoreless in the fourth quarter both times

322
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 2: the te Wolves played Denver. And in the regular season

323
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 2: the te Wolves lost both their games to Denver, but

324
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 2: in the playoffs, when it mattered most, Edwards was there.

325
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 2: Here's the thing, here's the thing that's scary. This guy's

326
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 2: going to get even better. He wants to be better,

327
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 2: and he every day is getting better. And so when

328
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 2: you look at Anthony Edwards, he doesn't talk about his accomplishments,

329
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 2: He talks about growing. And so what you have are expectations.

330
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 2: You have real expectations to follow. And I digress for

331
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 2: just a second, because maybe that's what cost Darvin Ham.

332
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 2: In the beginning of the year, most of the media

333
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 2: pundits were predicting the Lakers would be a five hundred

334
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 2: team at best, and under five hundred team. Most of

335
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 2: the people, including me, didn't believe Lebron, James and ad

336
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 2: could remain healthy all the most games either of them

337
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 2: had played in the last five years together. It was

338
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 2: fifty six. Be sure they both played north to seventy.

339
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 2: And if somebody would have told you that both Lebron

340
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 2: and ad would play over seventy games for the first

341
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 2: time they've been teammates, and they would have finished fifth

342
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 2: and sixth in player efficiency ratings, you might surmise that

343
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 2: the Lakers would win maybe fifty to fifty five games,

344
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: if not more. Maybe that's why the Lakers cleaned house.

345
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 2: They have expectations. Well now the Timberwolves have expectations, and

346
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 2: I'm here for it. We have got ourselves a real

347
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 2: treat in the West, and i am here for it

348
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 2: coming up. You know, there's an old saying, give me

349
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 2: a fact, I'll learn it. Tell me the truth, I'll

350
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 2: believe it. But sure a great story, and it lives

351
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 2: in my heart the rest of my life. The Golden Knights,

352
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,200
Speaker 2: the Vegas Golden Knights, have become one of the most

353
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 2: interesting and notorious sports stories in history. They're in their

354
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: seventh year. They won a Stanley Cup in their sixth year.

355
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 2: They got to the Stanley Cup finals in their first year.

356
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 2: Many smart people who claim to be smart said hockey

357
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 2: would never work in Las Vegas. It's worked incredibly well, well,

358
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 2: the story gets even better. What if I told you

359
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 2: as part of the broadcast team, the games are broadcast

360
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 2: in Spanish from a gentleman who emigrated here from Mexico

361
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 2: who had no hockey background. You're gonna love this story

362
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 2: coming up. But first let's go to our all right,

363
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 2: Kevin Wire at the chef with the latest.

364
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, Bernie bunch of drama. Tonight in the NHL Stanley

365
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 7: Cup playoffs, as the Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs in

366
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:43,480
Speaker 7: a game seven and sixty minutes not enough to decide

367
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 7: this one, they went to overtime where it was David

368
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 7: postern Ark with the game winning goal.

369
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 8: Bruns back to get it. Here's letter had won that

370
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 8: face off? By the way, how it center ice?

371
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 9: Posternock bumps it back for He'll navigate to the red

372
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 9: line for it's peg.

373
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 10: HEAs go.

374
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 7: Bruins Radio Network with the call. So that goal gives

375
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 7: the Bruins this opening round series win four games to three.

376
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,479
Speaker 7: As they win that game two to one, and Austin

377
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 7: Matthews did play it was he was questionable coming into it,

378
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 7: but he did get an assist in three shots on goal,

379
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 7: but it was not enough as Toronto now eliminated in

380
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 7: the NBA Game one of the Western Conference Semifinals Timberwolves Nuggets,

381
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,479
Speaker 7: and it was Minnesota holding it off, winning at one

382
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 7: oh six, two ninety nine behind a monster game from

383
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,400
Speaker 7: Anthony Edwards. He had forty three points and seven rebounds

384
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 7: in the victory. Nikolay Jokic, for his part, thirty two points,

385
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 7: eight rebounds, nine assists, so just shy of another triple double.

386
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,199
Speaker 7: Michael Porter Junior did have twenty points and six rebounds,

387
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 7: but it is Minnesota taking Game one of this best

388
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:05,679
Speaker 7: of seven series. In Major League Baseball, some late scores.

389
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 7: A lot of blowouts in the league today the Dodgers

390
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 7: over the Braves eleven to two, Tyler glasnew getting the win.

391
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 7: He's six and one now on the season. Padres blow

392
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 7: out the Diamondbacks thirteen to one. Mariner's shutting out the

393
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 7: Astros five to nothing.

394
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 2: Back over to you, Bernie, all right, thanks chef, all right,

395
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: let's welcome in a gentleman. I've really been looking forward

396
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 2: to this. He is the Spanish broadcaster for the Vegas

397
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 2: Golden Knights, who head into Dallas Sunday, game seven of

398
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 2: the first round playoffs. And you're not gonna believe this story.

399
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 2: But first let's welcome and say hello to j Zeu's

400
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 2: Lopez j Zeus, how are you am, my friend?

401
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 6: Hi Bernie, how you doing very good? Thank you very much,

402
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 6: thank you.

403
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: I'm really glad to have you. And before we get

404
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 2: to your story, which is incredible, the Vegas Golden Knights

405
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 2: as they defend their Stanley Cup championship after winning the

406
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 2: first two game on Dallas's ice, now find themselves in

407
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 2: a game seven in Dallas Sunday. What are the Vegas

408
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 2: goal and nets have to do to win and give

409
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 2: me a reason why they might not win?

410
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 6: Well, First of all, it seems like they are more happy,

411
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 6: more integrated when Aiden Hill is under the head, that's

412
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 6: for sure. And also it became like a goalie duel,

413
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 6: you know, between Ottinger and Aiden Hill. They have giving

414
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 6: us a great, great games these last two games. I

415
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 6: believe the fact that Aiden Hill has already tasted what

416
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 6: it's like, you know, to be part of a very

417
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 6: impressive final against the Panthers give them more security than

418
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 6: looging Thompson ass. So what they have to keep doing

419
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 6: is just being concentrated and not giving up the part

420
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 6: behind the neck, not giving out the park on their

421
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 6: own eyes, because Game four and five they were losing

422
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 6: the park, not even on the neutral zone, but in

423
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 6: their own eyes, and that is a sin when you

424
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 6: get the playoffs. So I believe they have to just

425
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 6: you know, got to give away to kick the pocket

426
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 6: and keep on shooting. We're missing all those long shots

427
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 6: from Shay Field or from Ali Martinez. But I think

428
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 6: they do have the chance, you know, And the percentage

429
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 6: of the games that they won on the road is

430
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 6: not bad, not bad at all. And we beat Dellas

431
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 6: already twice.

432
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 2: Right by the way, Aiden Hill was the starting goalie

433
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:47,919
Speaker 2: last year. For folks that are listening around the country

434
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 2: and around the world, it led the Nets to the

435
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 2: Stanley Cup championship. But there, you know, Logan Thompson, the

436
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: other goalie, had a little bit better regular seasons, so

437
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,680
Speaker 2: he started. But you expect Aton he'll just be in

438
00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 2: net On sunny, Is that correct?

439
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,919
Speaker 6: He's probably yeah, most likely we will.

440
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 4: We will.

441
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 6: We will know until tomorrow, you know, But I think

442
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 6: Aden Hill is going to stay on the nest.

443
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 2: All right, Let's get to the meati of the story.

444
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 2: I'm fascinated by stories like this. You've got to tell

445
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 2: the folks how emigrating from Mexico with no hockey background

446
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 2: to holding the Stanley Cup over your head at the

447
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 2: parade this last year. Tell the folks your story, because

448
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 2: it truly is a fascinating one.

449
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,360
Speaker 6: Well, first of all, I was forced to leave my country.

450
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 6: It was not my plan to come back to the

451
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 6: States to live because I lived in Alaska for a while.

452
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 6: I did some craft fishing and work on those processors

453
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 6: and the baron see right on Dutch Harbor. So I

454
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:54,439
Speaker 6: went back to Mexico and we we grew our pizza business.

455
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 6: We've been in my family. It's been in the pizza

456
00:27:56,240 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 6: business for forty five years. And that's the reason why

457
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 6: we were targeted by one of the cartels, Familia in Charkana.

458
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 6: They took away my brother in two thousand and nine.

459
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 6: We got it back alive, but you know, we had

460
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 6: to solo lot of assets to pay the ransom. And

461
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 6: then in twenty eleven they tried to get my daughter.

462
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 6: And it's when I decided to come back. So I

463
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 6: was doing a TV show, sports TV show in my

464
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 6: hometown for the State of Hadis School cable system, and

465
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 6: I was getting all of the advertising for the pizza

466
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 6: places for free, and I was like a quick roquol

467
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 6: Hi did the show and you guys you know, and

468
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 6: the TV company gave me the advertising for free. So

469
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 6: we grew. We were all over the state of Halis

470
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 6: school and that's why we were targeted home. They wanted

471
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 6: money every week for every store that we had opened.

472
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 6: It just became impossible. And now it's even worse in Mexico.

473
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 6: And Mexico has the worst president in the history of Mexico,

474
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 6: and he practically gave a way to come to the cartel.

475
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 6: So he's getting really really bad in Mexico. All the

476
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 6: things that I came, I came over to the States.

477
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 6: A friend of mine introduced me to this guy in

478
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 6: ESD in the portage here in La Veas, and they

479
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 6: offered me the job as a salesperson.

480
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 10: So I took it.

481
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 6: I took it, and I saw that there was no

482
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 6: comedy show on sports. Comedy show which are very popular

483
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:43,080
Speaker 6: in Mexico. Sports, from a funny point of view, those

484
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 6: are very popular in Mexico. So I do voices in

485
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 6: my show, Bernie. I do like twenty voices in my show.

486
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 6: I imitate some of the most renowned Mexican commentainers and it

487
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 6: became really popular. So I was just looking for a

488
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 6: you know, a big opportunity to to you know, to

489
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 6: get involved in the things that I like to do,

490
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 6: like the play by play because I did boxing and

491
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 6: I did soccer for a long time in Mexico. So

492
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 6: we were having a video conference with Bill Foley. He

493
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 6: wasn't new Yelemon. He announced the partnership between the vehicles

494
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 6: Allen Knights and Lotus Bookcasting, and.

495
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 2: So is the owner of the Golden Knights, so people know.

496
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, Bill Folly, the owner of the Vehicles of the Knights.

497
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 6: He was announcing, you know, the partnership with the oldest bookcasting.

498
00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 6: Tony Bonicci was at that time the general manager. Jesse

499
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 6: Leeds was was Tony's right end, and they both they

500
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 6: both were really happy that we acquired the rights for

501
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 6: the vehicles of the Night. So without without saying anything,

502
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 6: I just started to record demos about the play by play,

503
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 6: uh for that because all the nights in Spanish, and

504
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 6: I was looking for references Bernie about you know, how

505
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 6: to do it in Spanish if somebody else did it before.

506
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 6: I found a few. But what I found was a

507
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 6: goofy cartoons from nineteen fifty six that is called Hockey

508
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 6: ham Side that a Colombian guy who used to do

509
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 6: the player by played for soccer in Colombia. He did

510
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 6: the translation of that Disney cartoon and he had the

511
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 6: pace of hockey. You know that every sport, I said

512
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 6: at many times, as is, every sport has his own soul,

513
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 6: and hockey is just unique. And this guy had the pace.

514
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 6: So I tried to do it like the way he

515
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 6: did it. And when I recorded the demo, and then

516
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 6: Onichi advised me, you know what he used. There is

517
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 6: something missing. Do your soccer stuff, you know, call the

518
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 6: goals a soccer style.

519
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, yes, yes.

520
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 6: So I recorded another demo and I think I did

521
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 6: like six and I gave it to Tony and Tony said,

522
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 6: this is it. This is the one that I'm sending

523
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 6: to the vehse Ordinary. So he said that to the Nights.

524
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 6: They approved it, and that's how I got the gig.

525
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 6: But it was it was tough burning. It's not it's

526
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 6: not easy burning when you leave everything behind and and

527
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 6: everything you fought for so hard, all of a sudden

528
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 6: somebody tells you that your wife is no longer yours,

529
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 6: you know, and and all of your effort, all of

530
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 6: your work is going to be collected by somebody else.

531
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 6: Well that's not fair. And the police is involved and

532
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 6: with his cartels, you know, and not only the police,

533
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 6: but the army, in the Mexican army. It's it's very corrupted.

534
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 6: So it was hard. I had a very very tough

535
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 6: first five years. Well, first of all, because the people

536
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,959
Speaker 6: who help me then they couldn't find a way too

537
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 6: hot to to fire me, to make me leave the company, because.

538
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 2: I wanted to do a lot of stuff burning.

539
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 6: I wanted to, you know, to dig out the inna

540
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 6: value of a radio sports station. And I don't know,

541
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 6: they didn't lie that I was pushing so hard. Hey

542
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 6: let's do this, let's do that. You know, there's a

543
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 6: there's a boxing match. We got to get involved with

544
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 6: the UFC, We got to get involved in this. So

545
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 6: I believe sometimes people is very comfortable with what they're doing,

546
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 6: you know. And uh, and I'm not that kind of person,

547
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 6: so hold sue.

548
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 2: What's interesting is growing up in Mexico. We just got

549
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 2: a couple of minutes left. Growing up in Mexico. Uh,

550
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 2: you had virtually no hockey background, So how are you

551
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,479
Speaker 2: able to learn hockey so well? The blue line from

552
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 2: the red line, the players, the puk, the terminology, and

553
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: certainly the NHL version of hockey.

554
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 6: You know what they'd go through. Shane I, Dan Douar,

555
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 6: Garry Wallers, all of them are have been very supportive.

556
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 6: And I asked them if they have any books, you know,

557
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 6: or because I needed to read the story about hockey

558
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 6: and how the whole thing started. So I went all

559
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 6: the way back to when the Eskimo people from the

560
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 6: northern territories of Canada were playing, you know, I was

561
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 6: like this game to put something on an icehole and

562
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 6: and with the bones. And I read the whole story

563
00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 6: anthropologically to be just clear, and how evolved into a entertainment,

564
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,800
Speaker 6: and how evolved into a you know, little tournaments on

565
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 6: certain areas of Canada, and how it became the sport

566
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 6: and eventually with the leagues and eventually the NHL. So

567
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:48,280
Speaker 6: I read the whole story.

568
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 2: It's hive.

569
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 6: It's a little over one hundred and eighty five years.

570
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,120
Speaker 2: So let's do this, say zoos, well, good luck to

616
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 2: but they handed this thing with four hundred roses. It

617
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 2: weighs like thirty pounds. If you win, you talk about

618
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 2: a photo finish. It took several minutes. Afterward they shout

619
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,960
Speaker 2: it over and over and over again. And I know

620
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 2: everybody like fierceness. I told you last night fiercens has

621
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 2: never won two races in a row. Is if I

622
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 2: know what the hell I'm talking about. But you know

623
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:54,320
Speaker 2: past his prologue, the first leg of the Triple Crown

624
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 2: for the record has now been won by Mystic Dan

625
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 2: edged Sierra Leoni. But shut I mean less than or

626
00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 2: nos in to finish line. And it was a twenty

627
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:08,160
Speaker 2: horse field. You don't often have many twenty horse fields.

628
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,280
Speaker 2: They call it the most exciting two minutes in sports,

629
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 2: and that's true, except this time, it took several more

630
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 2: minutes because officials had to really gather around to determine

631
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 2: who crossed the first between Mystic Dan and Sierra Leoni,

632
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 2: and in third place finisher Forever Young was just barely

633
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:30,280
Speaker 2: behind them. And by the way, for Ever Young came

634
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 2: very close to also making history. If Forever Young would

635
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 2: have won, it had been the first time Japan got

636
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 2: a Kentucky Derby win. So give it up to thirty

637
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,839
Speaker 2: eight year old journeyman Brian Hernandez. You know, it's one

638
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: of those things when you win the race, who gets

639
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 2: the credit to jockey or the horse? Okay, Brian her

640
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,839
Speaker 2: names rode a hell of a race, and I guess

641
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 2: the horse wasn't too bad either. But when you're skimming

642
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 2: the rail the whole time, that's scary, that's bold. It

643
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 2: takes timing. Remember it was an eighteen to one long shot.

644
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 2: That that that's a long shot in my book. And

645
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 2: you know, if the race would have been what two

646
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 2: lengths longer, I think Sierra Leoni might have won. But

647
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty six seven and ten people went

648
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 2: home Saturday night knowing that they saw something. And by

649
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,240
Speaker 2: the way, a guy from Texas won sixty thousand dollars

650
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 2: on Mystic Dan True story, true story. Yeah, you can

651
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 2: bet the race too. You may not have known that,

652
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 2: of course, actually you did know that. All right. Coming up,

653

Speaker 2: what an eventful week in the NBA. We bring you

663
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 2: of week. We get to midnight every Saturday night, and

664
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 2: there is never a shortage of headlines, stories and craziness

665
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 2: in the National Basketball Association and this week is no different.

666
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 2: So three simple words, it's that time, Little Bedina Magic.

667
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 2: He's our Fox Sports Radio NBA guru. Mark. In common parlance,

668
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 2: I guess you could say this was not a slow

669
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 2: news week, fair, very fair.

670
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 10: I mean today alone, we had a hit, riveted, riveting

671
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:48,680
Speaker 10: game one of Wolves Nuggets, and as it's always been

672
00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 10: the case, we got a lot of interesting off the

673
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 10: court things, per saying to both the Lakers and the Clippers.

674
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to get to Saturday Night's action, where

675
00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,120
Speaker 2: I think Anthony Edwards still the show. But I've I've

676
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 2: been perusing the history books, Mark, and I just want

677
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 2: to make doubly sure so that we're accurate. Has any

678
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 2: NBA team ever fired their coach in the same season

679
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,840
Speaker 2: when they won the n season tournament.

680
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 10: I can confirm that this is a first.

681
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, I appreciate that. And in all seriousness,

682
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 2: sometimes things will wake me up in the middle of

683
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 2: the night, and I will tell you that I'm bothered

684
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 2: a little bit. I feel like Darvin Ham was railroaded.

685
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 2: And you may say, well, what do you care, Bernie Well.

686
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 2: Back in four Darvinham appeared in fifty four games for

687
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,879
Speaker 2: the Pistons, a couple of starts, nothing major championship team

688
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 2: beat the Lakers in five. I liked him. He was

689
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 2: a really nice guy. They might have been to talk

690
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 2: to him once. So in my opening monologue, I said

691
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 2: the Lakers need someone to run an adult daycare center,

692
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 2: not a head coach. So give me your thoughts on

693
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 2: Darvin Ham, because I know you'll be objective and all

694
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 2: you will be fair. And I think as recently as

695
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago, you felt pretty certain he

696
00:41:59,160 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 2: was staying.

697
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 10: Well, I want to clarify, I didn't think. I wasn't

698
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 10: concerned he was staying. I was relaying the point in

699
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 10: time that even two weeks ago they weren't having these

700
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 10: kind of conversations. I think. I think when you're looking

701
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 10: at a percentage blame high, there's a lot of things unpacked.

702
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 10: Most of it has to do with the roster itself,

703
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 10: and I think that there's a lot of questions that

704
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 10: should be asked of the front office with just how

705
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 10: their track record has been with evaluating what their priorities are.

706
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,799
Speaker 10: Some of it's been successful, some of it hasn't. And

707
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 10: it's as it pertains to a head coach. While every

708
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,359
Speaker 10: front office always has the freedom and responsibility to make

709
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 10: changes they don't like what's going on, that can also

710
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 10: highlight their decision making, especially when it happens so quickly here.

711
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 10: So I think when we're breaking down the season. I

712
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 10: think most of it had to do with the fact

713
00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 10: that outside Lebron James Anthony Davis, the rest of the

714
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 10: supporting cast is inconsistent. Part of it's because of injuries,

715
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,720
Speaker 10: part of it's because of rotations, part of it's because

716
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 10: the role players they're not star players. I think the

717
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,880
Speaker 10: second part then goes to Darvin, where I think you

718
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 10: can make the case that this team underachieved partly because

719
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 10: they weren't fully developed as far as in game adjustments,

720
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 10: play calls, rotations, even with the injuries. The fact that

721
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 10: it took him, I think, up until February to find

722
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 10: the right starting lineup doesn't fly because the starting lineup

723
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 10: wound up being the same group that was part of

724
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 10: the Western Conference Finals run last year. But I think

725
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 10: again the larger point is if you don't have a

726
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 10: better roster, there's only so much you can do. You

727
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 10: lost the Denver Nuggets in five games, So I think

728
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 10: moving forward with the coaching search, the Lakers can go

729
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 10: multiple directions. They can go, let's try to find a previous,

730
00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:01,839
Speaker 10: pre proven head coach, or again an assistant coach that

731
00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 10: you know is well respect around the league and may

732
00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 10: or may not have a lot of head coaching experience,

733
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 10: but they know their stuff as an assistant, or do

734
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:14,759
Speaker 10: the wild card of someone who hasn't been a head

735
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 10: coach but is a former player has a basketball I

736
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 10: too all that stuff. I want JJ Reddick. Regardless of

737
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 10: whatever lane they go in, they need to take ownership

738
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 10: of it because outside of Tylou, there is no definitive.

739
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 10: You got to drop everything and spend whatever it takes

740
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 10: to get this candidate. And so with that, I don't

741
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 10: think Tyloo's going to be available. The Clippers are going

742
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 10: to try to extend them and give them too good

743
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 10: of an offer to pass up. And so with that,

744
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 10: the Lakers really have to decide which lane they're going

745
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,560
Speaker 10: to commit to and then put them in a position

746
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,879
Speaker 10: to succeed and also be patient with the process. It's

747
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,759
Speaker 10: not a good sign that ever since twenty nineteen, they've

748
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 10: been through three head coaches under Rob Polinka. Understandable they've

749
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,239
Speaker 10: parted of ways with Luke Wallton, even though I think

750
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 10: that they are bigger factors in play. When you have

751
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 10: Lebron James, the qualifiers changed differently as far as how

752
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 10: a head coach is with a young, up and coming team,

753
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 10: versus a team that didn't win now Mo. But since then,

754
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 10: Frank Vogel has been a proven NBA head coach. He

755
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 10: helped him win the championship in twenty twenty. All of

756
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,279
Speaker 10: a sudden, ten years later, he's fired just because he

757
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 10: decimated the roster. That's not fair. You've decided to hire

758
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 10: that Darvin Ham, who didn't have head coaching experience but

759
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 10: respected assistant in Milwaukee, former NBA head coach. Once they

760
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 10: improved the roster, they got to the Western Conference finals

761
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 10: last year, and he praised all his character attributes and

762
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,280
Speaker 10: how he managed his personalities, and all of a sudden,

763
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 10: he's not good enough of a coach to still be

764
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 10: the head coach after one year. So what I'm getting

765
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,359
Speaker 10: at is no one's blameless here, but when you look

766
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 10: at all the backstory, the front office deserves most of

767
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:05,240
Speaker 10: the blame.

768
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 2: I'm an agreement, and you stole my thunder a bit

769
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:09,959
Speaker 2: because I know this would be the fourth coach under

770
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 2: the Lebron James era. But it's been a systemic issue

771
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 2: even before that. There have been six coaches that have

772
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 2: tried to fill Phil Jackson's shoes. Two of them actually

773
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 2: became coach of the year with other franchises. Mike Brown

774
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 2: did it in Sacramento. Mike D'Antoni did with the Rockets,

775
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 2: so Fields Mark like who the Lakers next tire might

776
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 2: be will be more to sell the press conference and

777
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,280
Speaker 2: create an image versus who they really think and manage

778
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,440
Speaker 2: its adult daycare center. Just my thoughts.

779
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's fair to point out the history,

780
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 10: but I would also point out that when you're looking

781
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 10: at Mike Brown, like D'Antoni Byron Scott, the context of

782
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 10: it was completely different, where this was partly because of

783
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,240
Speaker 10: the dynamic with Jim Buss and Mitch Kopchuk and having

784
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 10: a lot of different philosophies, and that's one of the

785
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,400
Speaker 10: reasons why jam Buss decided to oust that front office

786
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 10: and make changes. I think the other thing is both

787
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 10: in the path and the present. The Lakers inevitably are

788
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 10: going to be more turbulent than other teams because there's

789
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 10: higher expectations and when you have star players that have

790
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 10: a championship window, you don't have time to be as patient.

791
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 10: You have to have everyone be ready to produce instant results.

792
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,400
Speaker 10: But I don't think that these things have to be

793
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:32,600
Speaker 10: mutually exclusive. You can still have that urgency, but you

794
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,480
Speaker 10: also have to have the right philosophy in mind and

795
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 10: what you're looking for. And once you have that, you

796
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 10: got to make sure that you put the right roster

797
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 10: around them so they're in a position to succeed. And

798
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 10: I think, you know, specifically last year, I was of

799
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 10: the mind that the Lakers did make the right decision

800
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 10: last off season not to get someone like Kyrie Irving

801
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 10: or even a third star, because we saw what happened

802
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 10: when they got Russell Westbrook. And I think when we

803
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,080
Speaker 10: look at the five year run that Lebron James, Andy

804
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 10: Davis have had, they're most effective when they have roster depths.

805
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,759
Speaker 10: So I have a problem with that. But what we

806
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 10: saw this past season is that continuity and roster depth

807
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,879
Speaker 10: only means so much if it only means so much

808
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 10: if you have the right players that support that, And

809
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 10: what we saw was D'Angel Russell was inconsistent. Same thing

810
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,840
Speaker 10: with Austin Reeves, same thing with rouli Etamore. It didn't

811
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 10: help that Darvin ham didn't get the best out of them,

812
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 10: but I think in his defense, they're also too inconsistent

813
00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,799
Speaker 10: to trust them on a game to game basis. So

814
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 10: exactly that's where the rubber meets the road here that

815
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:44,280
Speaker 10: there has to be an acknowledgement ownership that they lost

816
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 10: in the first round because their roster just wasn't as

817
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 10: good as the Nuggets.

818
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 2: Well, exactly, we're on you know, as Yogi Berr would say,

819
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 2: we have different similarities. At my opening monologue, I talked

820
00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:56,920
Speaker 2: about their inconsistency. They win, the Lakers win the n

821
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 2: season tournament, then they go to and nine. After that,

822
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 2: let's talk about Lebron. June twenty ninth is the day

823
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 2: of demarcation. Is there any reason to even speculate for

824
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 2: a second that Lebron's not back with the Lakers next year?

825
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 10: Well, I guess you never say never, and still something's

826
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 10: put pen to paper and Lebron James will try to

827
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 10: exert leverage. But I think that's really what it is. Well,

828
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 10: you mentioned the calendar, June twenty ninth. He has a

829
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,400
Speaker 10: month and a half not to have to formally decide

830
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 10: because you have a deadline. Then, so why commit? Now?

831
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,800
Speaker 10: I think that even though I think that the Lakers

832
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:38,080
Speaker 10: are going to operate as if he's on the team

833
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:42,800
Speaker 10: and they'll make moves accordingly until he signs pen to paper.

834
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 10: There is always the chance that he could leave if

835
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 10: he doesn't like what the roster vision is. But I

836
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 10: think in fairness to this, he knows where he's at

837
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:53,960
Speaker 10: in his career. The Lakers know where he's at his career.

838
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 10: I think from both a basketball and business perspective, Lebron

839
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,399
Speaker 10: James is going to return as a Laker. Think he'll

840
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,320
Speaker 10: retire as a Laker. But that doesn't mean there's a

841
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,840
Speaker 10: lot more question marks to be how what else happens.

842
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 10: But I think even though they fully won't know that

843
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:12,439
Speaker 10: answer until July when free agency hits, they'll at least

844
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,880
Speaker 10: have clarity on a possible head coach, as well as

845
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 10: the clarity what they do with the NBA Draft. And

846
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 10: I'm not just talking about Bronny. I'm talking about in

847
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 10: the NBA Draft, they'll be able to start dealing up

848
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 10: to three picks in potential trades, and I think that

849
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:30,240
Speaker 10: will start the wheels in motion on where the direction

850
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,440
Speaker 10: is headed. From a rostery building standpoint, it's.

851
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 2: My understanding the Lakers are dangling a three year deal

852
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 2: max deal in front of Lebron. Is that true?

853
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:43,320
Speaker 10: Yeah? I mean I think that you know this current

854
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:47,319
Speaker 10: CBA allows for that. So if Lebron's open for that,

855
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 10: I think the Lakers are too. I think we have

856
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,839
Speaker 10: to keep in mind that, you know, Lebron James, even

857
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 10: though he's going to turn forty December thirtieth, he's still

858
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 10: playing at a reasonably elite level. It doesn't mean, oh,

859
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 10: he's a complete mirror image of how he was in

860
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 10: his prime, but he's still playing at all star caliber level.

861
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,480
Speaker 10: He's still playing as if he's one A or one

862
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 10: B on the team. So yeah, he's not leaving the

863
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 10: Lakers again. Never say never, but I'd be very surprised

864
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 10: if things change otherwise.

865
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 2: Mark, this is one of those weeks. We have so

866
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 2: much meat on the bone. We've got to get to

867
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 2: Pat Bev. I've got to get to Jannis and the Bucks,

868
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 2: and I've got to get to the Clippers. I understand

869
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 2: that James Harden, when asked if you'll be back, said

870
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,760
Speaker 2: I don't even know. Can you hang for one more segment?

871
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 2: This is one of those weeks, Man, sure really appreciated.

872
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,279
Speaker 2: Mark Madeena medeena magic every Saturday night at midnight. We're

873
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 2: going to get to Part B. We're gonna get to

874
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,520
Speaker 2: the Pat Beverly situation. We will certainly get to the

875
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:53,479
Speaker 2: Clipper situation in the bucks in that hole or deal.

876
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 2: I'm Bernie Fraddle, We're company LIFEROM Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio,

877
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 2: Diirect dot Com Studios. Keep it locked. You're listening to

878
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 2: the Bernie Fraddle Show on five Sports Radio. All right,

879
00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 2: We continue on with Mark Medeen and medeena Magic every

880
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 2: Saturday night midnight and the Bernie fraduis Shiew. Mark is

881
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 2: our Fox Sports Radio NBA guru. Mark. We have to

882
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 2: dive into the Patrick Beverly situation. You know that if

883
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:21,520
Speaker 2: Draymond Green is calling in to question your activities, you've

884
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 2: really done something. Where does Adam Silver go with this?

885
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 10: Well, we'll wait and hear from what is uh the

886
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 10: decision is, but I think it would be multi game suspensions. Obviously,

887
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,799
Speaker 10: nothing can ever replace the severity of what happened with

888
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,880
Speaker 10: the mouse in the palace. But you know that that

889
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 10: is kind of the precedent that anything that involves you know,

890
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:49,239
Speaker 10: fan behavior, uh, and players do anything with fans. That

891
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 10: that's where the NBA for almost the biggest, biggest line

892
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:55,239
Speaker 10: in the sand. And the reason for that is, you know,

893
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 10: they're worried about player and fans safety. That's number one,

894
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,880
Speaker 10: and number two, they're worried about, you know, not offending

895
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,440
Speaker 10: the business and paying customer. And so as it pertends

896
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 10: to Patrick Beverly, there was nothing to suggest that the

897
00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 10: fans were saying any thing abusive or personal or vulgar

898
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 10: or rac surely disparage, and they didn't throw anything at

899
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:24,880
Speaker 10: him either. So it's a zero excuse for Patrick Beverly

900
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 10: to throw basketball not once, but twice to two separate fans.

901
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:33,919
Speaker 10: So I'm I would expect, you know, a multi game

902
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 10: punishment to open next season.

903
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,800
Speaker 2: Well, I would hope. So you referenced the mouse of

904
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 2: the palace, and as you know, I was there that

905
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:42,440
Speaker 2: night doing a radio remote to sell the whole thing

906
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:46,279
Speaker 2: up close and personal. November nineteenth is the twenty year anniversary,

907
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,879
Speaker 2: and people remember it like yesterday. Here's why I think

908
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 2: that's an appropriate analogy mark because it was spontaneous combustion.

909
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:57,399
Speaker 2: The whole thing started because an empty beer cup flew

910
00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:59,439
Speaker 2: out of the stands and landed on around our task

911
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 2: conveniently had sprawled on the scores table. That could have

912
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,880
Speaker 2: lit a fuse. What if that hit somebody or hit

913
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 2: the wrong guy and he charges the court and the

914
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,839
Speaker 2: next thing you know, you got a melee. That's where

915
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 2: I think Adam Silver has to come down hard. Now

916
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 2: you see multi game suspension. I mean that could be

917
00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:17,880
Speaker 2: three games, or it could be eighty games.

918
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 10: Wait, I'm talking double digits there.

919
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 2: Okay, fair enough, let's not speculate. I hope that Adam

920
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 2: Silver understands the gravity of the situation and what could

921
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 2: have been. I have this sneaking suspicion he'll he'll sit

922
00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 2: pack Bev down and just point a finger at him, say, okay,

923
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 2: don't do that again. You're dismissed. You know I did

924
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:39,520
Speaker 2: just I don't know that's be.

925
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, all right. I hope this doesn't get misinterpreted because

926
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 10: I don't think that any his suspension is going to

927
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:51,320
Speaker 10: run our test of suspension. I think obviously the severity

928
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:53,719
Speaker 10: of that was at an all time high. But I

929
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:58,360
Speaker 10: think you could make the argument that you can understand better.

930
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 10: Why run our tests our metalworldpiece Mada Center for our

931
00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 10: test responded the way he did because he had a

932
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 10: cup of so to thrown at him. Why Patrick Beverly

933
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 10: responded the way he did. I mean, the severity of

934
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:19,600
Speaker 10: the fan behavior isn't even comparable. I mean, Pat Beverly

935
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 10: got one, two, three can contauns from fans like that's

936
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:27,040
Speaker 10: what fans do. And so again, what Patrick Beverly did

937
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,360
Speaker 10: isn't that severe as what Aron our Test did. But

938
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 10: I can understand why Ron our Tests reacted the way

939
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:38,319
Speaker 10: the way he did, much better than why Patrick Beverly did.

940
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 10: And while you know Ron is blameless, he served his time,

941
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,880
Speaker 10: lost a lot of money as a result, I can

942
00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,240
Speaker 10: understand why he reacted the way he did with Patrick Beverly,

943
00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:49,760
Speaker 10: zero excuse.

944
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 2: One of the greatest funny, quick sideline stories of that

945
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 2: whole evening was Ron our Test in the locker room

946
00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 2: right after everything happened, that Steven Jackson in the face

947
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,600
Speaker 2: with a straight face and said, you think we're going

948
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:07,320
Speaker 2: to be in trouble? True story. Anyway, I got a

949
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 2: lot of Tim by the way, Tim Donney, he was

950
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,320
Speaker 2: on the floor that night. Tim Downey, he was on

951
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 2: the floor that night. There's all kinds of stories, which

952
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:17,160
Speaker 2: I will tell again on November nineteenth. All right, let's

953
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 2: talk about the bucks. Let's be honest here. Okay, let's

954
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,840
Speaker 2: just deal with the facts. They were thirty and thirteen

955
00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:28,960
Speaker 2: with Adrian Griffin, nineteen and twenty three under Doc Rivers,

956
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:33,200
Speaker 2: bottom half in defensive and offensive efficiencies. I understand there

957
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 2: were injuries, but even before the injuries they had their issues.

958
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 2: They lost three in a row by double digits to

959
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 2: teams that weren't even in the playoffs. They were five

960
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,520
Speaker 2: and eleven in close games this year. Their offensive metrics

961
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter were terrible. What are they going

962
00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:48,920
Speaker 2: to do in Milwaukee?

963
00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:54,640
Speaker 10: It's a lot to unpack with the Bucks. Well, something

964
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,880
Speaker 10: aout the percentage blame high with the Lakers. We need

965
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:02,320
Speaker 10: that here with the Bucks too, because there's multiple slices

966
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:06,799
Speaker 10: go around, but certain people deserve figger slices. I think

967
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 10: the biggest slice of blame is, you know, this is

968
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,520
Speaker 10: a product of them missing Drew Holiday and the roster

969
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:18,720
Speaker 10: and the injuries, and frankly just players not playing up

970
00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:23,840
Speaker 10: to their potential. Theoretically, Damian Loward and sonte To Kumpo

971
00:57:23,920 --> 00:57:28,080
Speaker 10: were supposed to be so dominant offensively individually and as

972
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:31,880
Speaker 10: a duo that any defensive drop off from Drew Holiday

973
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 10: getting traded wasn't going to matter because they were just

974
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,960
Speaker 10: going to be so dominant offensively. They all played well individually,

975
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 10: but not enough. Secondly, their defense was still supposed to

976
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:47,320
Speaker 10: be able to mitigate Drew Holiday's primeter defense because last

977
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 10: time I checked, they had really good defenders in the

978
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 10: front court in Giannison Brook Lopez, and they weren't terrible defenders,

979
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:58,440
Speaker 10: but they also weren't great defenders. So I blame you know,

980
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,360
Speaker 10: those factors, the biggest ones. I don't think Doc Rivers

981
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 10: is a perfect coach. We've known his strengths and weaknesses

982
00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:09,160
Speaker 10: for quite some time. But I will say that he

983
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,680
Speaker 10: was a not upgrade compared to Adrian Griffin. And I

984
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 10: think that's saying a lot because not like Doc did

985
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:18,760
Speaker 10: a great job, but Adrian Griffin did an abysmal job,

986
00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:21,880
Speaker 10: and they went to fired him midway through the sea

987
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:24,240
Speaker 10: his first season if they didn't feel like this was

988
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 10: just getting off the rails really quickly. And I think

989
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 10: even though again there's ups and downs, the second half

990
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 10: of the season, they did improve on defense, the concepts

991
00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 10: were simplified, there's better team chemistry. So what they do

992
00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:42,640
Speaker 10: moving forward, you know what, I think, practically speaking, it's

993
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 10: hard to make wholesale changes, and I think pragmatically speaking,

994
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 10: as much as you know the results aren't good, there

995
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:52,720
Speaker 10: is a pathway that they can just improve from within

996
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:57,680
Speaker 10: with more time together, an actual training camp, you know,

997
00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,640
Speaker 10: under doc and so a lot. I don't want to

998
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:04,720
Speaker 10: absolve the team from any blame here. I think that

999
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 10: they can improve a lot substantially if they just have

1000
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 10: more time together. And look if they don't, you know,

1001
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 10: if that's what the trade deadline can be for with

1002
00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:13,800
Speaker 10: making changes.

1003
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 2: Finally, Mark, I appreciate you hanging on to night. There's

1004
00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:21,480
Speaker 2: another team in Los Angeles as well, and they've got

1005
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 2: a very an NBA team. They've got a very busy

1006
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 2: offseason ahead. You got to deal with Paul George, you

1007
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 2: got to deal with James Harden, and you mentioned it's

1008
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 2: likely that Tyler gets an extension. What does this Clipper

1009
00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 2: team do.

1010
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:38,840
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's fascinating because I was similar to the Bucks.

1011
00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 10: You think, Okay, there's a lot of changes they need

1012
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 10: to make. I think again, practically, pragmatically speaking, they go

1013
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:48,960
Speaker 10: status quo again. It's not going to solve everything we've

1014
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,160
Speaker 10: seen since Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are joined the Clippers.

1015
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 10: They can't stay healthy, but they're already committed to Kawhi.

1016
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 10: He agreed to the extension, Tylu, there's no reason to

1017
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 10: let him go. He's in a great coach and why

1018
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 10: give him up for free to go to the rival

1019
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 10: that of the Lakers. But when it comes to Paul

1020
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,240
Speaker 10: George and James Harden, they're going to have to negotiate

1021
01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 10: and find the right number because of the luxury tax concerns.

1022
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:16,160
Speaker 10: But I think James Harden and Paul George are both

1023
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:18,640
Speaker 10: going to have the awareness that they're probably better off

1024
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:21,880
Speaker 10: stay input. You know, I think with Paul specifically, Yeah,

1025
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,400
Speaker 10: there's talk about him getting interest from Philadelphia and Orlando,

1026
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 10: but I don't know if that's going to dramatically change things.

1027
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 10: I think his best chance of winning would be with

1028
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 10: the Clippers, and you know, with Philadelphia there might be

1029
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,680
Speaker 10: a counterpoint of well, Joe Embiid's really good. Yes he's

1030
01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 10: really good, but he has injury problems too, And there's

1031
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:46,480
Speaker 10: not the continuity part with James Harden. Yeah, we saw

1032
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,320
Speaker 10: the good and the bad of Harden, and it was

1033
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:52,240
Speaker 10: mostly the bad and the playoffs. But I think that

1034
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 10: he can build off of that. And again, I don't

1035
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,600
Speaker 10: think he's gained any kind of Max Steele. So the

1036
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 10: conversation's much too and as far as retaining him because

1037
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:05,440
Speaker 10: his market value is going to be depressed. With all

1038
01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 10: that said, I think that practically speaking, it's better to

1039
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 10: do this because the alternatives aren't that great. You also

1040
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:14,640
Speaker 10: need to have a reason for Cooper fans who want

1041
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 10: to go to intoot Tom. But that doesn't mean that

1042
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,880
Speaker 10: this is what the long term future is. They can

1043
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:23,760
Speaker 10: very much make changes lead into the trade deadline if

1044
01:01:23,840 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 10: things don't work out. In today's NBA, contracts don't really

1045
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 10: mean anything. It's just the bridge to get you to

1046
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:31,320
Speaker 10: the next step.

1047
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,520
Speaker 2: Yep, good stuff, Mark, I mean the trade for James

1048
01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:37,720
Speaker 2: Harden in October going to twenty six to five and

1049
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six and five tier and then postseason here

1050
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 2: we go. Mark, enjoy your.

1051
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:45,120
Speaker 10: Sunday, Hey, you too, appreciate it.

1052
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:50,880
Speaker 2: Thanks Mark, Medida, Medida magic so much to unpack in

1053
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:53,840
Speaker 2: the NBA. Markees a great job. Always glad to have

1054
01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 2: him come it up market. Calendars May ninth, Remember the

1055
01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:02,720
Speaker 2: NFL has taken over the sports calendar. Twenty four to seven,

1056
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 2: three sixty five. Next up, Well, I'll share you. I'll

1057
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:09,280
Speaker 2: share with you what is next up, But first go

1058
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:11,880
Speaker 2: back to our guy Kevin Wire at the chef. Yeah.

1059
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 7: Speaking of the NBA, we did have a playoff game

1060
01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:17,440
Speaker 7: on Saturday. It was Game one of the Western Conference

1061
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 7: semifinals we do between the Timberwolves and the Nuggets, and

1062
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 7: it's Minnesota holding off Denver.

1063
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 4: The horn will sound here in Denver and the Timberwolves

1064
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 4: have taken Game one. They stunted the Nuggets on their

1065
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:34,400
Speaker 4: home floor. They went at one, six ninety nine behind

1066
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:37,360
Speaker 4: forty three points from Anthony Edwards.

1067
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 7: Timberwolves Radio Network there with the call and that said

1068
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:45,240
Speaker 7: it all about Anthony Edwards. An absolutely monster performance by

1069
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:49,920
Speaker 7: the Timberwolves superstar forty three points. Also had himself seven rebounds,

1070
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 7: three assists, a couple of blocks, as he's really had

1071
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 7: a coming out party in these NBA playoffs. In the

1072
01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:00,920
Speaker 7: NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs, it's the seventh game of the

1073
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:04,240
Speaker 7: first round series between the Bruins and Maple Leaf. Sixty

1074
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,040
Speaker 7: minutes not enough to decide this one, as it went

1075
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 7: to overtime and it was David Poster Mark who got

1076
01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 7: the game winning goal to give the Bruins a two

1077
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 7: to one win and a four to three series lead.

1078
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 7: Austin Matthews was questionable, but he did play, got himself

1079
01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:22,360
Speaker 7: an assistant three shots on goal, but not enough, as

1080
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 7: Toronto is eliminade in a Major League baseball We had

1081
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:30,720
Speaker 7: some late games, but there were a lot of blowouts

1082
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,080
Speaker 7: across the league. Dodgers over the Braves eleven to two,

1083
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:36,320
Speaker 7: Padres beat the Diamondbacks thirteen to one. Mariner shout the

1084
01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 7: Astros five nothing, Raised over the Mets three to one.

1085
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 7: Rangers bought the Royals fifteen to four. Horse racing, it's

1086
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 7: Mystic Dan winning it by a nose literally to claim

1087
01:03:48,920 --> 01:03:51,600
Speaker 7: the Kentucky Derby the first of the Triple Crown races.

1088
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:53,560
Speaker 7: So we got two more. There'll be the Preakness and

1089
01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:56,680
Speaker 7: the Belma coming up in the following weeks.

1090
01:03:56,720 --> 01:04:00,560
Speaker 2: Back to you, Bernie, all right, chef away from another

1091
01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:05,640
Speaker 2: baffo performance. Speaking of bafo performances, the NFL pretty much

1092
01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 2: owns the calendar right now. The Draft is over, but

1093
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:13,520
Speaker 2: believe me, the NFL has another busy month ahead. As

1094
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:18,280
Speaker 2: you know that when the NFL makes news, people pay attention.

1095
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 2: We just saw seven hundred and seventy five thousand fans

1096
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:26,440
Speaker 2: attend the Draft festivities in Detroit, a new record. Incredible

1097
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:30,440
Speaker 2: and now you know, teams are speculating how the drafts go,

1098
01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:34,400
Speaker 2: the new rookies joining rosters, YadA YadA ya. So what's

1099
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:37,760
Speaker 2: next down the agenda, Well, mark your calendar May ninth, Thursday,

1100
01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 2: because the NFL has now found a way to capitalize

1101
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:46,320
Speaker 2: on something else that is also very newsworthy, and that

1102
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:50,000
Speaker 2: is the upcoming schedule release And that started to become

1103
01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,919
Speaker 2: one of the landmark moments every year in the National

1104
01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:56,640
Speaker 2: Football League in the past few years. And you already

1105
01:04:56,760 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 2: know when the season is who you're favorite team, who

1106
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:03,480
Speaker 2: their road and home opponents are going to be, in

1107
01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:06,760
Speaker 2: their divisional opponents, but you don't know when and where

1108
01:05:07,000 --> 01:05:09,520
Speaker 2: and the order they're going to be played in, et cetera,

1109
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:14,120
Speaker 2: et cetera. So last year the NFL network ESPN two,

1110
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:18,400
Speaker 2: ESPN plus they all had dedicated schedule release dates in

1111
01:05:18,560 --> 01:05:24,840
Speaker 2: prime time and they draw major, major amounts of viewers.

1112
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 2: Now first time in twenty twenty twenty, check that in

1113
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:33,920
Speaker 2: twenty twenty, the NFL released the season schedule after the

1114
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:38,040
Speaker 2: draft for the first time. So they decided to continue

1115
01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 2: that trend because it was met with such great, you know, fandom.

1116
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:47,760
Speaker 2: Now the league hasn't officially announced its schedule release date yet,

1117
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:53,040
Speaker 2: but I understand that that there's a landing page on

1118
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:56,880
Speaker 2: their website that Thursday May ninth is the day now

1119
01:05:57,160 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 2: the NFL they are they are geniuses at generating hype

1120
01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:07,520
Speaker 2: four months before the season even starts. And you're gonna

1121
01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 2: see the six rookie quarterbacks promoted in the first round.

1122
01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:18,720
Speaker 2: You know, there's likely there's talk that the Broncos will

1123
01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:23,320
Speaker 2: play the Chiefs on opening Night, and there's also gonna

1124
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 2: be games on Black Friday, and there's a Wedday Christmas doubleheader,

1125
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,480
Speaker 2: and then of course after the schedule release, the owners

1126
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:32,439
Speaker 2: are gonna convene in Nashville on May twentieth and twenty

1127
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:35,960
Speaker 2: second for the spring meetings, and then there's another future

1128
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:39,400
Speaker 2: draft city that's gonna be announced. And so what they

1129
01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:41,240
Speaker 2: do is it's like you know, when you take your

1130
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:44,120
Speaker 2: dog for a walk, you know, and he's got a pee.

1131
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:46,680
Speaker 2: He doesn't just pee all at one spot, drops a

1132
01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:50,000
Speaker 2: little here, drops a little there, drops a little over there,

1133
01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:52,600
Speaker 2: because he doesn't want to go right back home.

1134
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:52,880
Speaker 6: Right.

1135
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 2: He's smart, he's out smarting you. He says, hey, you're

1136
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 2: gonna keep me out here for a while, or like

1137
01:06:57,760 --> 01:06:59,960
Speaker 2: you know, when you get that fresh ground pepper cylinder

1138
01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:03,000
Speaker 2: and the guys leading over your salad and twisting it

1139
01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:05,760
Speaker 2: and twisting and twisting it, and it comes out ever

1140
01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:08,920
Speaker 2: so slowly and it's taken forever. Well, you're here for it.

1141
01:07:09,520 --> 01:07:12,520
Speaker 2: You want what you want, Well, the NFL simply knows

1142
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:17,280
Speaker 2: how to do that. Their agendas incredible. They're always managing

1143
01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 2: to keep you in the news and keep you in

1144
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 2: terms of announcements and teasing what's what. And by the way,

1145
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 2: when Roger Goodell was in Detroit a couple of weeks ago,

1146
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:34,200
Speaker 2: he talked about expanding the schedule to eighteen games. He's

1147
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:36,400
Speaker 2: basically said, Coote, I'm not a fan of the preseason.

1148
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:39,880
Speaker 2: I understand he was on the Paton McAfee show. And

1149
01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:44,360
Speaker 2: so could the NFL go from three preseason and seventeen

1150
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:48,720
Speaker 2: regular season games to two preseason games and eighteen I

1151
01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:52,040
Speaker 2: think Cadell wants that, and he doesn't think it's unreasonable,

1152
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:55,640
Speaker 2: and he thinks that the benefit. One of the side

1153
01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 2: benefits would be moving the Super Bowl back to another

1154
01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:01,440
Speaker 2: week in February. That would make a president's stay a weekend,

1155
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:04,520
Speaker 2: which is a three day weekend. You make the game

1156
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 2: on Sunday night and you got Monday off because remember

1157
01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 2: all those years and we did that on the midnight

1158
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:12,760
Speaker 2: hour once into Bernie Frodish on Friday. Should the day

1159
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,360
Speaker 2: after the super Bowl be a holiday? Some people want it,

1160
01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:17,679
Speaker 2: some people who don't care. But believe me enough people

1161
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:19,840
Speaker 2: want it. It's been talked about. So all of a sudden,

1162
01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:24,280
Speaker 2: now you move the super Bowl back to you another

1163
01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:27,720
Speaker 2: week in February, and your buddy up against President's stay

1164
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:31,000
Speaker 2: a weekend. But here's the key. The reveal date for

1165
01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 2: the past couple of years for the schedule has drawn

1166
01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:39,879
Speaker 2: a huge audience. So you you will see, I believe, Thursday,

1167
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:43,160
Speaker 2: May ninth. They've been doing it on the second Thursday

1168
01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 2: of the month in May. And they do it before

1169
01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:49,400
Speaker 2: they do it typically before the owners meetings in Nashville.

1170
01:08:50,120 --> 01:08:54,080
Speaker 2: So what does the NFL do? They say, here, look,

1171
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,200
Speaker 2: we've got stuff for you, and we're all going to

1172
01:08:57,280 --> 01:09:02,000
Speaker 2: be there watching it come up. You sawhow the Chiefs

1173
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:06,519
Speaker 2: drafted Xavier Worthy out of Texas. Another brilliant Chiefs move.

1174
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,280
Speaker 2: Get the one of the fastest guys in the universe.

1175
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:15,720
Speaker 2: For Patrick Mahomes to instill fear into his opponents, Why, well,

1176
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:17,600
Speaker 2: it turns out it looks like the Chiefs might be

1177
01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:21,760
Speaker 2: expecting a major suspension for one of their players. We

1178
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:25,439
Speaker 2: will explain coming up. By the way, shortly after the

1193
01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:12,719
Speaker 2: lot of stuff to get to. I mentioned the Chiefs draft.

1194
01:10:13,680 --> 01:10:16,799
Speaker 2: I thought they got themselves a great one in Xavier

1195
01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:19,920
Speaker 2: Worthy from Texas. The dude can fly as a playmaker.

1196
01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:25,240
Speaker 2: No Super Bowl team has ever won three in a row.

1197
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 2: Lots of teams have won two in a row. No

1198
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:30,800
Speaker 2: teams have won three in a row. The Chiefs appear

1199
01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,240
Speaker 2: to be held out on doing it, but they are

1200
01:10:33,400 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 2: bracing themselves for a major suspension for a guy who

1201
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,479
Speaker 2: was a real key contributor last year, and of course

1202
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 2: I'm talking about Rashi Rice. In a recent appearance on

1203
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:49,680
Speaker 2: Steve Smith Senior's YouTube podcast, an NFL reporter by the

1204
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:53,320
Speaker 2: name of James Palmer said that the Chiefs are fully

1205
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:59,760
Speaker 2: expected Rice to be suspended. Remember he was part of

1206
01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:04,840
Speaker 2: a car crash in Dallas on March thirtieth, and the

1207
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 2: Chiefs are bracing for Now the NFL does things a

1208
01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:14,280
Speaker 2: little different, possibly half the season at least. Imagine that

1209
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:19,200
Speaker 2: half the season at least we will see. The reports

1210
01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:22,920
Speaker 2: have suggested the Chiefs were expecting a multi game suspension

1211
01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 2: that could easily mean four to six games, but the

1212
01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:31,479
Speaker 2: inside scoop says it's going to be closer to eight

1213
01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 2: to ten games.

1214
01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:33,080
Speaker 6: Now.

1215
01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:36,800
Speaker 2: It's for a good reason. I mean, Rashi, writes, is

1216
01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:41,920
Speaker 2: facing multiple felony charges over his role in a high

1217
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:45,519
Speaker 2: speed car crash again back on March thirtieth, and he's

1218
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:49,240
Speaker 2: also facing civil lawsuits now because there are two of

1219
01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:54,360
Speaker 2: the accided victims that I understand, you know, as a

1220
01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:57,680
Speaker 2: result of the crash, they will suit him civilly. The

1221
01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,759
Speaker 2: truth of the matter, though, if you set this aside,

1222
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 2: with which you can't, it's a serious issue. As a

1223
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:05,599
Speaker 2: rookie was she Rice really really did a great job.

1224
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,400
Speaker 2: He caught seventy nine passes, nine hundred and thirty eight yards,

1225
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:13,880
Speaker 2: seven touchdowns. He came through for the Chiefs. I think

1226
01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 2: he let him down in the off season, but he

1227
01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 2: came through during the season, and I think that he's

1228
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:24,840
Speaker 2: a you know, those are serious numbers that you are

1229
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 2: really you're gonna play. It's not let's just put it

1230
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:32,280
Speaker 2: this way. It's not going to be easy to replace

1231
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:36,080
Speaker 2: the numbers that rash Rice put up. And if they

1232
01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:40,240
Speaker 2: still get him for half the season, well that's better

1233
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:43,040
Speaker 2: than nothing. If you know, they work in Xavier Worthy

1234
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:46,479
Speaker 2: and Travis Kelcey just re upped for more. But in

1235
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:48,600
Speaker 2: case you missed, at the Dallas Police Department where they

1236
01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:52,560
Speaker 2: did issue a warrant for Rice's arrest, when was it,

1237
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,439
Speaker 2: I guess it was probably It's been about a month

1238
01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:59,559
Speaker 2: now and according to the arrest warrant was She Rice

1239
01:12:59,640 --> 01:13:03,639
Speaker 2: faces eight charges in the case, six counts of collision

1240
01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:10,200
Speaker 2: involving bodily injury, one kind of collision involving serious body injury,

1241
01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:14,400
Speaker 2: and one kind of aggravated assault. Now there's a lot

1242
01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:16,519
Speaker 2: we don't know, so I don't want to spend a

1243
01:13:16,560 --> 01:13:20,080
Speaker 2: lot of time on this. But apparently she Rice, by

1244
01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:23,960
Speaker 2: his own admission, was behind the wheel of a Lamborghini

1245
01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:27,880
Speaker 2: SUV that was involved in this multi car crash in Dallas.

1246
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:32,680
Speaker 2: And they've actually reviewed dash cam footage that showed his

1247
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:37,040
Speaker 2: Lamborghini and a Corvette which was also leased in Rash's

1248
01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:41,439
Speaker 2: Rice's name. Apparently they were racing in the left lane

1249
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:44,560
Speaker 2: before both drivers lost control of the car, and the

1250
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:46,560
Speaker 2: driver of the Corvette, I don't know who it is,

1251
01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:55,000
Speaker 2: is facing the same charges as Rice. Someone also speculated

1252
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,960
Speaker 2: that he could be facing drug charges marijuana was telling

1253
01:13:58,080 --> 01:14:00,559
Speaker 2: the car he was driving, But apparently nothing has been

1254
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,040
Speaker 2: done in that vein yet. Just throwing that in there.

1255
01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:07,280
Speaker 2: But again, here's a guy twenty three years old. He

1256
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,879
Speaker 2: emerged as a real key cock in the Chiefs offense

1257
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,719
Speaker 2: last year as a rookie seventy nine catches, nine hundred

1258
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:16,200
Speaker 2: and thirty eight yards. He led the team in touchdowns

1259
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 2: with seven touchdowns, and in the playoffs he was even

1260
01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:23,000
Speaker 2: better twenty six caught twenty six balls two hundred and

1261
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:26,280
Speaker 2: sixty two yards in a touchdown. But he's going to

1262
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,880
Speaker 2: be facing regardless of what the legal proceedings reveal and

1263
01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:34,160
Speaker 2: what the lead you know, how this is adjudicated, He's

1264
01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:37,920
Speaker 2: going to be facing, you know, a pretty lengthy suspension.

1265
01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:41,360
Speaker 2: So the Chiefs have that as an issue they will

1266
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 2: have to contend with this year. Now coming up at

1267
01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:48,200
Speaker 2: the top of the hour, now that the draft is in,

1268
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:52,439
Speaker 2: you know, the the quarterback draft is in. You know,

1269
01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:57,000
Speaker 2: Kayleb Williams went one, Jaden Daniels went to Drake Maywin three,

1270
01:14:57,120 --> 01:15:01,880
Speaker 2: Michael Pennis went eight, JJ McCarthy went ten, and Bo

1271
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,920
Speaker 2: Nicks went to Denver at twelve. And now we have

1272
01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:08,920
Speaker 2: come to the proverbial. Showed me the money and I

1273
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:10,840
Speaker 2: will share with these is all slotted. Now I'll share

1274
01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:12,680
Speaker 2: with you the money they get. Long gone are the

1275
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:17,960
Speaker 2: days with a Sam Bradford fifty sixty million dollars to

1276
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:21,479
Speaker 2: basically not play in the NFL. Long The short of

1277
01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 2: it is, back back then, Sam Bradford was one of

1278
01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:29,720
Speaker 2: the last of the Mohicans. Back then, you would make

1279
01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:32,680
Speaker 2: fifty million before we ever took a snap. But they

1280
01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:35,599
Speaker 2: restructured it with a new rookie wage scale in twenty eleven,

1281
01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:38,519
Speaker 2: and we've had seen more quarterbacks drafted in the first

1282
01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,720
Speaker 2: round thirty eight since then. Actually checked that forty four

1283
01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 2: now with this year's draft, and basically, you know, although

1284
01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:50,400
Speaker 2: there's less risk drafting a first round quarterback in terms

1285
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 2: of the financial commitment, only one of those quarterbacks got

1286
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:57,840
Speaker 2: their team to the super Bowl, and that was, of course,

1287
01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:02,320
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes. That's what's noteworthy about the reason I'm bringing

1288
01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 2: up this money and the reason I am talking about

1289
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:06,760
Speaker 2: this I'm going to go dive into it length at

1290
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:11,639
Speaker 2: the top of the hour, is that listen, these guys

1291
01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:13,880
Speaker 2: coming into the NFL now, although they're going to get

1292
01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 2: a nice haul, they're gonna get a nice bag, and

1293
01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:17,479
Speaker 2: I'll share with you what each one of them is

1294
01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:22,920
Speaker 2: going to get, but they're already making in many cases

1295
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:27,639
Speaker 2: millions because they've been partnered up with major brand partners

1296
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 2: that have contributed to their nil bucket of money. And

1297
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:36,360
Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is this is going to

1298
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,519
Speaker 2: be a subject we will start to tackle as we

1299
01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:41,519
Speaker 2: get over the summer, the NIL on the transfer portal

1300
01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:44,680
Speaker 2: is completely out of control. I think a lot of

1301
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 2: people feel that when college football players decide to hop

1302
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:52,519
Speaker 2: into the transfer portal. Now I'm not saying this is reality,

1303
01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:56,040
Speaker 2: but certainly the perception is is that basically they're selfish,

1304
01:16:56,720 --> 01:17:00,559
Speaker 2: they feel entitled, they're certainly disloyal. The end of the day,

1305
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 2: they're money hungry. That's what they want to know more

1306
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:08,240
Speaker 2: than anything else. How much I'm gonna how much am

1307
01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:12,280
Speaker 2: I going to get? There is a staggering number of

1308
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:16,160
Speaker 2: entries into the college football transfer portal this year. Now,

1309
01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:19,479
Speaker 2: from August of twenty twenty two to May of twenty

1310
01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:24,479
Speaker 2: twenty three, there are have been almost nine thousand NCAA

1311
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:27,479
Speaker 2: football players that have stepped into the portal. That doesn't

1312
01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:31,519
Speaker 2: mean they're going to transfer, It just means you're kicking

1313
01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:35,160
Speaker 2: the tires. But that's an astronomical number, and it's up

1314
01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:38,000
Speaker 2: six percent from the year before when they were about

1315
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:42,000
Speaker 2: eighty three hundred and more than double. When you go

1316
01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:45,120
Speaker 2: back to twenty nineteen, which is the first cycle of

1317
01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:50,120
Speaker 2: NIL transfer in the portal, about four thousand, So now

1318
01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 2: we're up to almost nine thousand and the FBS, I

1319
01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:59,160
Speaker 2: mean the FBS alone, over thirty three hundred players in

1320
01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:03,519
Speaker 2: the portal. Again, that's about a seven percent jump from

1321
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:07,040
Speaker 2: last year's and there were only seventeen hundred if from

1322
01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:12,520
Speaker 2: FBS that did it back in twenty nineteen. Look, you've

1323
01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:16,200
Speaker 2: got piles of cash just sitting there, and NIL is

1324
01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:19,040
Speaker 2: completely out of control. The transfer portals completely out of control.

1325
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,559
Speaker 2: Used to be, you know, the ideological purpose was stop

1326
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:27,439
Speaker 2: by the car dealership, sign autographs, shake hands, kiss babies.

1327
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:30,960
Speaker 2: So you're the local quarterback, You're the local celebrity. Everybody

1328
01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:34,280
Speaker 2: likes you. Get yourself some walking around money. I don't know, five, ten,

1329
01:18:34,360 --> 01:18:38,320
Speaker 2: twenty grand, whatever the case may be. No, it is complete,

1330
01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:42,800
Speaker 2: complete wild West. So quarterback sending these quarterback deals, well,

1331
01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:44,920
Speaker 2: I not only share with you what they're getting to

1332
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:46,880
Speaker 2: be in the NFL, but I'll also share with you

1333
01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:50,640
Speaker 2: what they were already getting from their NIL money. This

1334
01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:54,840
Speaker 2: is craziness. We are, in fact, in a brand new world,

1335
01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 2: and I will share it with you coming up. Keep

1336
01:18:58,280 --> 01:19:00,840
Speaker 2: it locked right here. You're listening to the Bernie Fradle

1337

Speaker 2: Show on Fox Sports Radio. That's right, you heard the

1338
01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:08,840
Speaker 2: man Bernie Fradle Show keeps rolling right along. My name

1339
01:19:08,920 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 2: is Bernie Fraddle. Would come you alive from the tyrack

1340
01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,720
Speaker 2: dot com studios here in Las Vegas. Tyrack dot com

1341

Speaker 2: We'll help you get there. An unmatched selection, fast free

1342
01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:22,719
Speaker 2: shipping for your road hazard protection, and over ten thousand

1343
01:19:22,840 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 2: recommended installers. Tyrack dot com the way tire buying should be. Well,

1344
01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:30,439
Speaker 2: the NFL Draft is in the books, and it's now

1345
01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:33,080
Speaker 2: time to show me the money. Well, believe it or not,

1346
01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:37,840
Speaker 2: these things are slotted. So collectively, the six teams that

1347
01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 2: have committed to drafting quarterbacks in the first round have

1348
01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:46,479
Speaker 2: now roughly committed, believe it or not, already one hundred

1349
01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:50,919
Speaker 2: and seventy five million dollars in guaranteed salaries to these rookies,

1350
01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:56,439
Speaker 2: of which history shows us. Unfortunately, the odds are against

1351
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:59,680
Speaker 2: having the kind of success that the franchise hopes for.

1352
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:02,720
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to cast dispersions here, but we're in

1353
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:05,040
Speaker 2: a different era now, We're in a different era of sports,

1354
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,800
Speaker 2: we're in a different era of college sports. And so

1355
01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 2: what's interesting is these guys are about to be millionaires.

1356
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:15,320
Speaker 2: Many of them already are millionaires. They've already made millions

1357
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,480
Speaker 2: through their name, image and likeness deals and other endorsement opportunities.

1358
01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:24,360
Speaker 2: These six players cumulatively last year alone, records tell Us

1359
01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:29,360
Speaker 2: made two point seven million dollars worth of Nile stuff.

1360
01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:33,479
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams was drafted number one overall to no one's

1361
01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:37,840
Speaker 2: surprised by Chicago Bears and by the way spot track

1362
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 2: estimations have provided the data with respect to how much

1363
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,240
Speaker 2: these quarterbacks will get. It's four year to fall four

1364
01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:51,240
Speaker 2: year deals. Right, Caleb Williams will earn thirty eight point

1365
01:20:51,400 --> 01:20:53,840
Speaker 2: five four million in the next four years with the

1366
01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:57,160
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears. Now, we don't know if the Bears will

1367
01:20:57,160 --> 01:20:59,320
Speaker 2: pick up a fifty year option, but we're nowhere near

1368
01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:02,880
Speaker 2: that point. Why did I bring that up because a

1369
01:21:02,920 --> 01:21:04,679
Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago when I talked about be careful

1370
01:21:04,720 --> 01:21:09,240
Speaker 2: what you wish for when you sign a first round quarterback,

1371
01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:15,760
Speaker 2: because history tells us that it's decidedly the odds are

1372
01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:20,920
Speaker 2: against first round quarterback having the kind of success you

1373
01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:23,880
Speaker 2: would hope that would get your team to the Promised Land.

1374
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:27,280
Speaker 2: The success rate of first round quarterbacks is frankly daunting.

1375
01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:30,599
Speaker 2: Just go back to twenty eleven, there've been well, there

1376
01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:34,640
Speaker 2: were six that drafted this year, but Prior to this year,

1377
01:21:34,680 --> 01:21:36,880
Speaker 2: there were thirty eight quarterbacks drafted in the first round,

1378
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:42,719
Speaker 2: and of those thirty eight, they made almost two thousand starts.

1379
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,160
Speaker 2: But the cumulative record of those thirty eight first round

1380
01:21:46,240 --> 01:21:50,400
Speaker 2: quarterbacks one game under five hundred. And of those thirty

1381
01:21:50,439 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 2: eight quarterbacks, only one leather team to a Super Bowl victory,

1382
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:58,760
Speaker 2: and you know who that was, Patrick Mahomes. Most other

1383
01:21:58,880 --> 01:22:02,320
Speaker 2: rookie deals expired without giving a chance to get a

1384
01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 2: second deal with the same team that drafted them. As

1385
01:22:04,520 --> 01:22:08,400
Speaker 2: a matter of fact, of there are still ten of

1386
01:22:08,479 --> 01:22:12,160
Speaker 2: those quarterbacks on the rookie deal. But if you take

1387
01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:16,880
Speaker 2: the other twenty eight quarterbacks that have had an opportunity

1388
01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:19,320
Speaker 2: for their team to give them the second deal with

1389
01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:22,200
Speaker 2: the team that drafted them beyond the rookie deal, only

1390
01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:26,120
Speaker 2: eleven of the twenty eight that rookie got that second contract.

1391
01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:29,519
Speaker 2: So sixty one percent of the time you're not even

1392
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,759
Speaker 2: getting a second deal. But I digress. So Caleb Williams,

1393
01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:37,640
Speaker 2: here's a guy transfers from Oklahoma, goes to usc He

1394
01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:42,320
Speaker 2: earned ten million through the nil deal Wildham College. And

1395
01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:47,920
Speaker 2: we're not talking about you know, business partners that are

1396
01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:52,519
Speaker 2: Hammon agers. Caleb Williams has already partnered up with companies

1397
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,519
Speaker 2: like Doctor Pepper and Nissan and Wendy's and Postmates and

1398
01:22:55,640 --> 01:23:00,759
Speaker 2: Tops Baseball Cards, all of them, by the way, probably

1399
01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:04,559
Speaker 2: they've benefited from the fact that Caleb Williams has over

1400
01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:09,519
Speaker 2: five hundred thousand followers on social media. So Caleb Williams, yes,

1401
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:11,599
Speaker 2: he'll learned thirty eight million over the next four years,

1402
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 2: but he's already big ten. Jaden Daniels was drafted by

1403
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:21,280
Speaker 2: the Washington Commanders, second contract slotted. He'll earn thirty six

1404
01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:24,000
Speaker 2: point eight million over the next four years. I remember

1405
01:23:24,120 --> 01:23:26,920
Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels was the twenty twenty three Heisman Trophy winner

1406
01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:31,400
Speaker 2: and he started to really climb the draft boards because

1407
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:33,400
Speaker 2: LSU had success. He led him to a ten and

1408
01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:40,240
Speaker 2: three record. But again he's no stranger to the nil world.

1409
01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:46,240
Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels was racked up deals with Raising Canes, Bisquick, Neman,

1410
01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:50,839
Speaker 2: Marcus beat by Dre Power aid. This is no small potatoes,

1411
01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:54,920
Speaker 2: this is big time stuff. Drake May went to the

1412
01:23:55,000 --> 01:24:01,920
Speaker 2: Patriots after. You know, he's very great. Well, he was solid,

1413
01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:05,519
Speaker 2: very solid at North Carolina. His contracts looted. He'll earn

1414
01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:08,880
Speaker 2: thirty five point seven million over the next four years.

1415
01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:16,320
Speaker 2: And it was revealed that even while Drake May I

1416
01:24:16,479 --> 01:24:19,760
Speaker 2: just talked about the transfer portal, it was revealed that

1417
01:24:20,400 --> 01:24:23,960
Speaker 2: another acc school, I don't know who, maybe it was

1418
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:28,640
Speaker 2: two schools, actually offered Drake May five million dollars in

1419
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:33,640
Speaker 2: nil money to transfer. And this is more than just

1420
01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:37,439
Speaker 2: a rout where. This was information that the head coach

1421
01:24:37,520 --> 01:24:41,400
Speaker 2: at North Carolina, Mac Brown confirmed, and I think it

1422
01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:44,120
Speaker 2: was Drake May found it to be a little uncomfortable

1423
01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:46,160
Speaker 2: from what I hear, Mack Brown found it to be

1424
01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 2: a little uncomfortable. But by the way, while he was

1425
01:24:49,840 --> 01:24:54,639
Speaker 2: at North Carolina, Drake May, he also partook in inil

1426
01:24:54,720 --> 01:24:57,880
Speaker 2: deals with the likes of raising canes, lows and bows.

1427
01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:02,160
Speaker 2: Not bad. So those are your first three. How about

1428
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:07,280
Speaker 2: the next three? Well, Michael Penix went number eight to Atlanta,

1429
01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:12,320
Speaker 2: and that's obviously the draft choice that set everybody you

1430
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:18,960
Speaker 2: know in a tizzy. Michael Penis now drops off when

1431
01:25:19,000 --> 01:25:20,760
Speaker 2: you get to number eight. But you know we're not

1432
01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:24,880
Speaker 2: talking chunk change here. Michael Panics will earn twenty two

1433
01:25:25,040 --> 01:25:28,320
Speaker 2: point eight million over the next four years. And here's

1434
01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:31,559
Speaker 2: a guy also transferre from Indiana ends up at Washington.

1435
01:25:32,600 --> 01:25:36,799
Speaker 2: Washington used Adidas for their uniforms. I believe Michael Pennix

1436
01:25:36,880 --> 01:25:40,840
Speaker 2: was able to ink a and ANIL deal with Adidas

1437
01:25:41,040 --> 01:25:45,439
Speaker 2: as well as Amazon. Very convenient. Amazon based in Seattle,

1438
01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:50,280
Speaker 2: Panini Beats by Dre Sharpie, Starry Soda, and Oh, by

1439
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:55,080
Speaker 2: the way, you have Michael Pennick's credit. He led Washington

1440
01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:59,000
Speaker 2: to the national title game last year. Then, of course,

1441
01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:03,599
Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy quarterback in Michigan twenty seven and one Michigan

1442
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:06,960
Speaker 2: National champion. McCarthy will earn twenty one point eight million

1443
01:26:07,880 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 2: over the next four years, and I realized that people

1444
01:26:14,439 --> 01:26:17,040
Speaker 2: focused a lot more on Michigan's defense in the run game.

1445
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:20,760
Speaker 2: But McCarthy did enough when he was called upon for

1446
01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:25,559
Speaker 2: my money to merit what he is about to give

1447
01:26:25,600 --> 01:26:27,720
Speaker 2: the opportunity he's about to get in the NFL. But

1448
01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:32,120
Speaker 2: McCarthy was also not left out in the NIL world.

1449
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:35,479
Speaker 2: He collected four hundred By the way, part of the

1450
01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:41,360
Speaker 2: reason that these kids, i'll call them kids, but part

1451
01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:45,959
Speaker 2: of the reason that these NIL deals are so attractive

1452
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:48,600
Speaker 2: for the people writing the checks, it's because they have

1453
01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:53,840
Speaker 2: a pretty significant reach. McCarthy apparently has four hundred and

1454
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:59,120
Speaker 2: sixty five thousand Instagram followers, and he's got endorsements in

1455
01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:04,880
Speaker 2: nil deals with the Brady brand, Bows, Beats by Dre Tops,

1456
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:09,120
Speaker 2: and he I guess was even tapped on the shoulder

1457
01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:12,960
Speaker 2: to promote the new Bob Marley movie on social media.

1458
01:27:13,640 --> 01:27:14,080
Speaker 6: So J. J.

1459
01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:19,280
Speaker 2: McCarthy not kidding shut out either. Finally, number twelve overall

1460
01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:23,760
Speaker 2: bow Knicks, he'll get eighteen point six million over the

1461
01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:27,639
Speaker 2: next four years. Bo Knicks just turned twenty four again,

1462
01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:30,080
Speaker 2: played at two schools, Oregon and Auburn. He's the oldest

1463
01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:33,120
Speaker 2: quarterback of the first round draft. Hes became the first

1464
01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:37,679
Speaker 2: college athlete to sign a sponsorship deal with Google Shopping.

1465
01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:40,719
Speaker 2: He's also got deals with seven to eleven Tops, Bows,

1466
01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:49,519
Speaker 2: bo Jangles, Old Spice, Old Spice, and USAA. So where's

1467
01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:52,240
Speaker 2: all this go? What's gonna happen? Let's go back to

1468
01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:57,679
Speaker 2: the first year the NFL draft drafted quarterbacks. Who could

1469
01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:02,360
Speaker 2: have gotten what money? It's what I call buyer beware.

1470
01:28:04,400 --> 01:28:08,559
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty four, NFL teams had select the quarterbacks

1471
01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:13,120
Speaker 2: in the first round, and fortunately they're all heading into

1472
01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:15,439
Speaker 2: the next season. Those teams with the same players that

1473
01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:18,920
Speaker 2: are under center. However, only two of the six quarterbacks

1474
01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:20,679
Speaker 2: taken in the first rounds in the twenty and twenty

1475
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:23,479
Speaker 2: one and twenty twenty two drafts are still with their

1476
01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:29,240
Speaker 2: original teams. So even though you have high hopes and

1477
01:28:29,320 --> 01:28:32,360
Speaker 2: you write big checks for quarterbacks when you draft them

1478
01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:37,240
Speaker 2: in the first round, sometimes it doesn't work out. You

1479
01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:39,680
Speaker 2: don't believe me. How about the Jets. They had an

1480
01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:42,559
Speaker 2: eight and a half million dollars dead cap hit tied

1481
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:46,240
Speaker 2: to Zach Wilson, the Niners just under six million for

1482
01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 2: Trey Lance after eight point three million last season. The

1483
01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 2: Bears faced with a two point seven million dollars dead

1484
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:56,160
Speaker 2: cap hit for Justin Fields and Kennye Pickett will cost

1485
01:28:56,200 --> 01:29:02,400
Speaker 2: the Steelers three point seven million out Hopefully this year's

1486
01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:06,479
Speaker 2: quarterback crop we'll find maybe the same kind of success

1487
01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:09,360
Speaker 2: that they had back in twenty twenty, because that was

1488
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:11,800
Speaker 2: actually a pretty good draft. Remember that produced Joe Burrow

1489
01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:16,439
Speaker 2: Justin Herbert. They've both gotten contract extensions totally more than

1490
01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:20,479
Speaker 2: five hundred million Tua Jordan Love. They will hope to

1491
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:24,639
Speaker 2: secure contracts they've already earned more than eighty million combined.

1492
01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:27,080
Speaker 2: But they're getting their team to the playoffs. What's the

1493
01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:31,280
Speaker 2: moral of the story. This is not an exact science,

1494
01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:36,639
Speaker 2: and it's certainly not an inexact It isn't an exact science,

1495
01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:42,400
Speaker 2: and it's an inexact art. It's a crapshoot. And oh,

1496
01:29:42,479 --> 01:29:44,759
Speaker 2: by the way, yeah, they are about to be millionaires,

1497
01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:50,000
Speaker 2: but they already were. We are very much in different times.

1498
01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:52,160
Speaker 2: Coming up, I want to bring in the crew to

1499
01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:53,720
Speaker 2: talk about this. I want to bring in Shaye and

1500
01:29:53,840 --> 01:29:59,040
Speaker 2: Mark and Kevin Wirrett because times are so different now,

1501
01:29:59,600 --> 01:30:03,679
Speaker 2: a man being in college and making millions of dollars

1502
01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:06,200
Speaker 2: before you even get to the NFL. I want to

1503
01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 2: see what the guys think about that. Coming up, I'm

1504
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:11,720
Speaker 2: Bernie Friddle Wear Company line from Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio,

1505
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:14,479
Speaker 2: Tirac dot com studios. Keep it locked. It's the Bernie

1506
01:30:14,479 --> 01:30:16,840
Speaker 2: Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio. All right, We're back on

1507
01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:20,559
Speaker 2: the Bernie Fradle Show, Fox Sports Radio company line from

1508
01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:24,639
Speaker 2: the tyrack dot com studios here in Las Vegas, talking

1509
01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:29,519
Speaker 2: about the NIL situation and the transfer portal which is

1510
01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:34,240
Speaker 2: completely out of control. And before I bring in the crew,

1511
01:30:34,280 --> 01:30:35,720
Speaker 2: which I'm gonna do in a second here, I want

1512
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:38,080
Speaker 2: to read a tweet from a gentleman named Harry. He

1513
01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:41,680
Speaker 2: says Bernie is a simple fan, the transfer portal and

1514
01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:46,040
Speaker 2: NIL are infuriating to me. Yeah, millions changing hands? What

1515
01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:48,719
Speaker 2: about the average fan? Oh yeah, great for the Giants,

1516
01:30:49,200 --> 01:30:54,360
Speaker 2: but screw everyone else. Virginia Tech basketball had five transfers

1517
01:30:54,439 --> 01:30:59,639
Speaker 2: last season. Five Come on, man, So, as I mentioned,

1518
01:31:00,360 --> 01:31:04,400
Speaker 2: they see dollar science, they see opportunity. It's out of control.

1519
01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:09,800
Speaker 2: Are the players at least the perception is selfish, entitled, disloyal,

1520
01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:14,760
Speaker 2: money hungry or are they just taking advantage of the system. Chef?

1521
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:18,040
Speaker 2: Let's start with you, Kevin Wirt. I'm sure you've been

1522
01:31:18,080 --> 01:31:20,840
Speaker 2: a college football fan for a long time, or college

1523
01:31:20,880 --> 01:31:24,479
Speaker 2: football or college sports fan. What do you make of

1524
01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:30,240
Speaker 2: this new generation of NIL and transfer portal? Overall?

1525
01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:30,800
Speaker 6: I like it.

1526
01:31:30,880 --> 01:31:36,040
Speaker 7: I support it because for decades now, college coaches, administrators,

1527
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 7: presidents have been making so much money, especially off football

1528
01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:42,040
Speaker 7: and men's basketball players, and they haven't been getting any

1529
01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:45,400
Speaker 7: of that. So I support the fact that in a

1530
01:31:45,479 --> 01:31:48,160
Speaker 7: society we call ourselves a capitalistic society in which you

1531
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:51,519
Speaker 7: can use your skills in order to profit and better yourself,

1532
01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:54,600
Speaker 7: and that's exactly what they're aiming to do. So I

1533
01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:56,519
Speaker 7: always thought it was absurd that there were rules in

1534
01:31:56,600 --> 01:32:00,400
Speaker 7: place preventing them from making money off of their own name, image,

1535
01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:05,040
Speaker 7: and likeness likeness as well as being prevented from choosing

1536
01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:08,000
Speaker 7: what is essentially their place of employment. Call it going

1537
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:11,040
Speaker 7: to school you want, but college football is a job,

1538
01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:13,120
Speaker 7: even if it is one that is for the school.

1539
01:32:14,040 --> 01:32:16,320
Speaker 7: The time commitment, the work they put in it is

1540
01:32:16,439 --> 01:32:19,880
Speaker 7: a job. So I support the fact that they have

1541
01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:24,080
Speaker 7: the freedom to choose where they go and what type

1542
01:32:24,080 --> 01:32:26,160
Speaker 7: of money they can make for their skills for the

1543
01:32:26,280 --> 01:32:30,080
Speaker 7: services they provide. Now, when it comes to the disorganized

1544
01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:33,400
Speaker 7: nature of it, that's where I think them unionizing and

1545
01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:36,040
Speaker 7: coming to terms on a collective bargaining agreement with the

1546
01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:40,240
Speaker 7: colleges can really benefit in putting some order into what

1547
01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:43,320
Speaker 7: has been a very chaotic nil and transfer portal world

1548
01:32:43,400 --> 01:32:45,599
Speaker 7: we have here in college football, where you know, there

1549
01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:47,880
Speaker 7: can be rules that dictate who can transfer when and where,

1550
01:32:48,280 --> 01:32:50,639
Speaker 7: who makes what from nil deals, and who gets paid

1551
01:32:50,680 --> 01:32:53,400
Speaker 7: what for playing for the school. So that's how I

1552
01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:56,719
Speaker 7: feel about this. I think it's a positive thing overall,

1553
01:32:56,880 --> 01:33:00,560
Speaker 7: But I think that if there's some rules put in

1554
01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:03,400
Speaker 7: place in which the schools and players can negotiate on,

1555
01:33:03,600 --> 01:33:04,880
Speaker 7: I think that can be even better.

1556
01:33:06,439 --> 01:33:08,280
Speaker 2: Oh, you covered a heck, of a lot of ground there.

1557
01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:13,960
Speaker 2: Where I thought you were going in the beginning was

1558
01:33:14,479 --> 01:33:17,479
Speaker 2: you know coaches can come and go. It will and

1559
01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,280
Speaker 2: a players recruited in maybe places freshman year and the

1560
01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:23,320
Speaker 2: coach leaves and he's stuck. So why can't players come

1561
01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:27,439
Speaker 2: and go? But you to your other point, the revenues

1562
01:33:27,479 --> 01:33:32,040
Speaker 2: are now so astronomical, why shouldn't they be shared? So

1563
01:33:32,160 --> 01:33:36,920
Speaker 2: I appreciate your candor. The unionization is a topic I'm

1564
01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:38,960
Speaker 2: going to bring up a lot over the summer. It

1565
01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:42,800
Speaker 2: brings a lot of baggage with it. People got to

1566
01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:46,479
Speaker 2: be very careful with that players unionizing. But the point

1567
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:50,519
Speaker 2: you're making is we need structure. That's basically what you're saying, Kevin, right,

1568
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:52,720
Speaker 2: is that you like the concept, but we need some

1569
01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:56,680
Speaker 2: guardrails here because everything's out of control. It's not you

1570
01:33:56,720 --> 01:33:58,440
Speaker 2: don't want to throw out the baby with the bathwater,

1571
01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:01,200
Speaker 2: but we have to structure this in a way where

1572
01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:02,080
Speaker 2: there's some guardrails.

1573
01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:04,240
Speaker 7: Fair I mean going I would, I would absolutely agree

1574
01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,519
Speaker 7: with that, and it helps prevent bad actors from taking

1575
01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:09,760
Speaker 7: advantage of anyone as well. It can protect people as

1576
01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:13,360
Speaker 7: well as create more fairness I think in regards to

1577
01:34:13,560 --> 01:34:15,840
Speaker 7: how everything is structured.

1578
01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:19,200
Speaker 2: Shay your thoughts on this soul matter.

1579
01:34:20,320 --> 01:34:22,880
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean I basically agree with Kevin here. I mean,

1580
01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:25,640
Speaker 11: I think the better word for me would would be

1581
01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:28,679
Speaker 11: kind of They would have to restructure it in terms

1582
01:34:28,760 --> 01:34:32,040
Speaker 11: of just kind of where it's regulated a little bit better.

1583
01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:36,519
Speaker 12: I think, Yeah, I just I think it it's just

1584
01:34:36,720 --> 01:34:38,679
Speaker 12: they really I love the idea.

1585
01:34:38,760 --> 01:34:41,639
Speaker 11: I love athletes getting I mean, it's completely right, it's

1586
01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:43,080
Speaker 11: a it's a it's a part time job, not a

1587
01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:43,760
Speaker 11: part time job.

1588
01:34:43,680 --> 01:34:44,760
Speaker 12: Almost a full time job.

1589
01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:45,479
Speaker 6: It is.

1590
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:49,280
Speaker 11: But when when when you when you're putting that much

1591
01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:54,280
Speaker 11: time into something and then you you need to for instance,

1592
01:34:55,720 --> 01:34:59,320
Speaker 11: I don't know, let's let's say, because college athletes they're

1593
01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:03,240
Speaker 11: putting eight, nine, ten hours and then they still have

1594
01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:05,559
Speaker 11: to study. It's it's it's it's it's a lot of work.

1595
01:35:05,640 --> 01:35:08,599
Speaker 11: It's it's it's a lot of it's strengd you. It's

1596
01:35:08,800 --> 01:35:11,280
Speaker 11: just a lot of strain on a body in mind,

1597
01:35:11,360 --> 01:35:15,720
Speaker 11: and then it needs to get paid. Basically, in the

1598
01:35:15,800 --> 01:35:17,920
Speaker 11: end of the day, I thought it was a great idea.

1599
01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:19,479
Speaker 11: It needs to get paid. But I think they just

1600
01:35:19,560 --> 01:35:23,320
Speaker 11: went all in way too quickly, and it wasn't regulated.

1601
01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:27,439
Speaker 11: They weren't able to restructure it. So it's just I

1602
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:29,560
Speaker 11: think it needs to be restructured, and I think it

1603
01:35:29,680 --> 01:35:30,719
Speaker 11: just needs to be regulated.

1604
01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 12: That's that's literally it. It's they just went all in

1605
01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:33,920
Speaker 12: way too quickly.

1606
01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:36,680
Speaker 2: M h. How about the transfer portal? What do you

1607
01:35:36,680 --> 01:35:37,120
Speaker 2: think about that?

1608
01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:41,040
Speaker 11: So that's that's another thing that I so, as you know,

1609
01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:43,599
Speaker 11: I'm an ASU fan, I went to ASU. The transfer

1610
01:35:43,680 --> 01:35:46,599
Speaker 11: portal is something that kind of has hit us pretty

1611
01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:48,519
Speaker 11: hard after speculation and all that.

1612
01:35:50,840 --> 01:35:54,400
Speaker 12: I obviously it's there for the athlete. It's it's there.

1613
01:35:54,560 --> 01:35:58,800
Speaker 11: So when situations like ASU comes upon, like where they

1614
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:00,400
Speaker 11: thought they were going to be in a same situation

1615
01:36:01,160 --> 01:36:03,400
Speaker 11: where we're going to have this coach, we're gonna have

1616
01:36:03,479 --> 01:36:06,080
Speaker 11: all these players, We're gonna have all these people, and

1617
01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:08,679
Speaker 11: then lo and behold, the coach gets fired, a bunch

1618
01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:12,439
Speaker 11: of people get fired, things happen. I think it's there

1619
01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:14,880
Speaker 11: for that situation, but a lot of people end up

1620
01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:20,559
Speaker 11: taking advantage of it. That's a huge issue. And again

1621
01:36:20,920 --> 01:36:23,080
Speaker 11: that leads us going back to, oh, they just need

1622
01:36:23,160 --> 01:36:25,000
Speaker 11: to restructure it. Oh, they need it needs to be

1623
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:27,519
Speaker 11: regulated a little bit better. But we could say that

1624
01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:30,479
Speaker 11: about everything. So with this, with that it's a little

1625
01:36:30,520 --> 01:36:33,680
Speaker 11: bit harder to say like, hey, like this needs to

1626
01:36:33,800 --> 01:36:36,639
Speaker 11: change just because it's it's there for the athletes being

1627
01:36:36,680 --> 01:36:39,320
Speaker 11: able to transfer and you can't take that away from them.

1628
01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:42,160
Speaker 11: It's like how, like what are you going to do

1629
01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:44,519
Speaker 11: about that? To be honest, like you can't say, hey,

1630
01:36:44,600 --> 01:36:47,000
Speaker 11: you have your you're stuck there for four years. You're

1631
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:50,000
Speaker 11: getting paid now. It's almost a contract cause in the end,

1632
01:36:50,040 --> 01:36:52,559
Speaker 11: it's not the school that's paying them, it's it's outside

1633
01:36:52,640 --> 01:36:55,920
Speaker 11: sources that are paying them. So I don't think they'll

1634
01:36:56,240 --> 01:37:00,360
Speaker 11: like anything will change in that side of uh and

1635
01:37:00,479 --> 01:37:03,840
Speaker 11: that side of things unless the school starts paying them.

1636
01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:07,599
Speaker 11: It's just because it's not a contract. They're not under

1637
01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:10,599
Speaker 11: contracts for anything. So why would they have to stay anywhere?

1638
01:37:10,640 --> 01:37:13,160
Speaker 11: Why would they have to abide by these certain rules

1639
01:37:13,200 --> 01:37:16,439
Speaker 11: when if a certain school promised them something and they're

1640
01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:19,280
Speaker 11: not promising in them that they should just be able

1641
01:37:19,320 --> 01:37:20,160
Speaker 11: to get up and leave.

1642
01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:23,479
Speaker 2: You guys are covering a lot of good ground and

1643
01:37:23,600 --> 01:37:26,439
Speaker 2: after marks here, what Mar's got to say, I want

1644
01:37:26,439 --> 01:37:33,519
Speaker 2: to recap this because the SEC is a conference that

1645
01:37:33,680 --> 01:37:38,080
Speaker 2: actually spans eleven states, and we guess we're talking about

1646
01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:42,400
Speaker 2: regulation here. We need I think some sort of national regulation,

1647
01:37:43,640 --> 01:37:45,400
Speaker 2: some sort of federal regulation. I'll get to that in

1648
01:37:45,439 --> 01:37:48,160
Speaker 2: a second, but Mark Ramsey, let's get your thoughts on

1649
01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:51,360
Speaker 2: the NIL transfer portal ordeal.

1650
01:37:51,640 --> 01:37:55,040
Speaker 13: So far, what I'm understanding is okay. So I'm happy

1651
01:37:55,200 --> 01:37:59,800
Speaker 13: for the players who now get to have some of

1652
01:37:59,880 --> 01:38:03,800
Speaker 13: the money that's flowing through college sports. You know, that's

1653
01:38:03,840 --> 01:38:07,759
Speaker 13: a good thing that they're getting money because of whatever

1654
01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:11,040
Speaker 13: games at you know, computer games that they might have

1655
01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:14,000
Speaker 13: been on, or just the idea that their school makes

1656
01:38:14,120 --> 01:38:16,960
Speaker 13: money when they play well at their particular sports. So

1657
01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:20,640
Speaker 13: that's the good part. Now another part is all this

1658
01:38:20,920 --> 01:38:25,320
Speaker 13: money is being basically thrown at these kids, and that's

1659
01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:28,160
Speaker 13: what we can see. It's a lot of money, and

1660
01:38:28,280 --> 01:38:32,360
Speaker 13: these guys are in their twenties. Unless they have parents

1661
01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:34,240
Speaker 13: that know how to help them manage it, or they

1662
01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:38,280
Speaker 13: have to get other money managers that help them manage it,

1663
01:38:38,400 --> 01:38:40,160
Speaker 13: it could get out of hand quickly.

1664
01:38:40,760 --> 01:38:42,080
Speaker 5: So it's good that they can get it.

1665
01:38:42,280 --> 01:38:45,880
Speaker 13: But it's just so much they might not know how

1666
01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:47,720
Speaker 13: to handle it and how to deal with it at

1667
01:38:47,760 --> 01:38:52,280
Speaker 13: a particular pace of time. So I'm glad that they

1668
01:38:52,320 --> 01:38:54,840
Speaker 13: can make money. But like the guys have been saying,

1669
01:38:55,439 --> 01:38:59,600
Speaker 13: I guess it's so unorganized and anything can happened, so

1670
01:39:00,439 --> 01:39:03,400
Speaker 13: people could take advantage of the players, and the money

1671
01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:06,240
Speaker 13: is flowing, so it still seems to be like the

1672
01:39:06,360 --> 01:39:06,960
Speaker 13: Wild West.

1673
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:07,839
Speaker 12: It's so crazy.

1674
01:39:08,640 --> 01:39:11,120
Speaker 13: They can make money, but it's just so much flowing

1675
01:39:11,280 --> 01:39:13,880
Speaker 13: and who knows what good or back can happen in

1676
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:14,479
Speaker 13: the long run.

1677
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:18,360
Speaker 2: And that's what you would call what I would call

1678
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:22,200
Speaker 2: the law of unintended consequences. So you guys covered a

1679
01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:25,880
Speaker 2: lot of good ground here. About a year ago, a

1680
01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:30,920
Speaker 2: Massachusetts governor, his name is Charlie Baker, called for congressional

1681
01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:35,680
Speaker 2: action on NIL because his argument was that since all

1682
01:39:35,760 --> 01:39:39,240
Speaker 2: the state laws are differing different from each other, you

1683
01:39:39,320 --> 01:39:41,920
Speaker 2: really have kind of an uneven playing field. It's quote

1684
01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:45,200
Speaker 2: was this quote. The NIL is a powerful vehicle that

1685
01:39:45,400 --> 01:39:49,519
Speaker 2: rightly allows student athletes the ability to earn compensation from

1686
01:39:49,960 --> 01:39:53,680
Speaker 2: the unique market value. But at the same time, the

1687
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:58,160
Speaker 2: lack of transparency in today's NIL marketplace puts student athletes

1688
01:39:58,200 --> 01:40:01,479
Speaker 2: in jeopardy. I'll vex potation by bad actors, and I

1689
01:40:01,520 --> 01:40:05,960
Speaker 2: think that's what the Kevin said. So the SEC conference

1690
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:09,560
Speaker 2: has been a little bit more proactive and trying to

1691
01:40:09,760 --> 01:40:14,479
Speaker 2: uniform these or change state laws or you know, create

1692
01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:17,720
Speaker 2: some sort of balance and some sort of uniformity, some

1693
01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:23,800
Speaker 2: sort of guardrails or regulate. Like you guys said, but

1694
01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:31,200
Speaker 2: you this is such a far reaching subject and it

1695
01:40:31,320 --> 01:40:35,760
Speaker 2: is really going to be incredibly packed impactful on the

1696
01:40:36,479 --> 01:40:42,400
Speaker 2: on the future of college sports. You know, you're gonna

1697
01:40:42,400 --> 01:40:45,240
Speaker 2: get into situations with taxes and the I R S

1698
01:40:45,479 --> 01:40:48,559
Speaker 2: and the Fair Labor Standards Act and the National Labor

1699
01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:53,599
Speaker 2: Relations Board. It really gets crazy. Bottom line is these

1700
01:40:53,720 --> 01:40:58,920
Speaker 2: NFL quarterbacks, they're about to be millionaires. They're already millionaires.

1701
01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:01,479
Speaker 2: It's the world coming up. But I want to bring

1702
01:41:01,520 --> 01:41:03,560
Speaker 2: in the crew on this one too. Roger Goodell is

1703
01:41:03,640 --> 01:41:08,519
Speaker 2: pushing very hard for an eighteen game NFL season. He's

1704
01:41:08,560 --> 01:41:11,320
Speaker 2: got some speed bumps so to get there. But I

1705
01:41:11,400 --> 01:41:14,200
Speaker 2: will tell you what I know based on people I've

1706
01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:16,679
Speaker 2: talked to. But first go back to our guy, the chef,

1707
01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:22,120
Speaker 2: Kevin Wired with the latest it could take your place.

1708
01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:26,400
Speaker 2: No way they could match your baby. No, you gotta

1709
01:41:26,439 --> 01:41:30,599
Speaker 2: go on phone in away so clear. I just bought

1710
01:41:30,680 --> 01:41:33,519
Speaker 2: to buy you a beer maybe tonight it's feeling thirty.

1711
01:41:33,520 --> 01:41:36,200
Speaker 2: I feel they're not gonna come by. And did you

1712
01:41:36,439 --> 01:41:41,400
Speaker 2: up to Mark? No, not to do for you.

1713
01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:47,920
Speaker 6: No baby does for you. God for you.

1714
01:41:48,240 --> 01:41:52,599
Speaker 2: Now you know if that is true, that you got

1715
01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:58,240
Speaker 2: no dot to do by you? Another baho performance by

1716
01:41:58,320 --> 01:42:00,679
Speaker 2: the chef round, you know, round of a play. Let's

1717
01:42:00,720 --> 01:42:01,120
Speaker 2: get it? Oh.

1718
01:42:01,200 --> 01:42:03,479
Speaker 7: I love being able to share my golden pipes with

1719
01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:06,880
Speaker 7: all of you. Absolutely, it's a great pleasure of mine.

1720
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:11,160
Speaker 2: Nice job, Mark, I say you did the cards and

1721
01:42:11,240 --> 01:42:13,320
Speaker 2: letters we get week after week of people. Do you

1722
01:42:13,400 --> 01:42:14,160
Speaker 2: leave him in tears?

1723
01:42:14,240 --> 01:42:17,559
Speaker 7: Kevin Well, we need to give a round of applause,

1724
01:42:17,560 --> 01:42:20,599
Speaker 7: at least the people in Boston. Dude, David Posternark after

1725
01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:24,120
Speaker 7: he gives the Bruins a two to one win and

1726
01:42:24,320 --> 01:42:29,000
Speaker 7: giving them the series victory in seven games.

1727
01:42:29,400 --> 01:42:31,880
Speaker 8: Bruins back to get it. Here's Leadrick won that face off?

1728
01:42:31,960 --> 01:42:34,760
Speaker 8: By the way, how it.

1729
01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:37,720
Speaker 9: Center ice poster not bumps it back for Linhole. He'll

1730
01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:41,200
Speaker 9: navigate to the red line for it's peg Tyner cut

1731
01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:43,280
Speaker 9: pattern back hands go.

1732
01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,720
Speaker 7: Bruins Radio Network with the call. So they went to

1733
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:51,679
Speaker 7: overtime where he got the game winning goal to lift

1734
01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:54,920
Speaker 7: the Bruins to the four to three series victory and

1735
01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:57,559
Speaker 7: into the second round. The Maple Leafs did get Austin

1736
01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:00,280
Speaker 7: Matthews back. He was questionable gun himself in this and

1737
01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:03,120
Speaker 7: three shots on goal, but it was not enough. Toronto

1738
01:43:03,360 --> 01:43:07,200
Speaker 7: eliminated Anthony Edwards give a Reno bloss to him forty

1739
01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:10,800
Speaker 7: three points seventeen to twenty nine shooting is a Timberwolves

1740
01:43:10,840 --> 01:43:13,280
Speaker 7: hold off the Nuggets one oh six two ninety nine

1741
01:43:13,400 --> 01:43:16,720
Speaker 7: in the first game of the Western Conference Semifinals, so

1742
01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:18,920
Speaker 7: they have a one nothing lead in that best of

1743
01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:23,760
Speaker 7: seven series. In Major League Baseball, a lot of blowouts

1744
01:43:23,840 --> 01:43:26,280
Speaker 7: in the league, especially in the Lake games. The Dodgers

1745
01:43:26,320 --> 01:43:29,880
Speaker 7: over the Braves eleven to two, Padres top the Diamondbacks

1746
01:43:29,920 --> 01:43:33,840
Speaker 7: thirteen to one, Mariners blanked the Astros five nothing. Houston

1747
01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:37,719
Speaker 7: now just twelve and twenty one on the season. Rangers

1748
01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:39,680
Speaker 7: blow out the Royals fifteen to four. There were some

1749
01:43:39,800 --> 01:43:43,720
Speaker 7: close games. Orioles edged the Reds two to Rays over

1750
01:43:43,760 --> 01:43:47,439
Speaker 7: the Mets three to wine, and the Pirates blank the

1751
01:43:47,560 --> 01:43:52,280
Speaker 7: Rockies in Pittsburgh one to nothing. Kentucky Derby, it is

1752
01:43:52,640 --> 01:43:56,160
Speaker 7: mystic Dan winning it by justin nose to claim the

1753
01:43:56,200 --> 01:43:58,600
Speaker 7: first race out of the triple Crown. So there'll be

1754
01:43:58,640 --> 01:44:01,679
Speaker 7: the breakness and the Alma coming up in the next

1755
01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:04,360
Speaker 7: few weeks. Back to you, Bernie All.

1756
01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:09,040
Speaker 2: Right, chef good stuff as always another baffo performance. All Right,

1757
01:44:10,920 --> 01:44:17,639
Speaker 2: Roger Goodell sees what's happening in the NFL, and everybody

1758
01:44:17,720 --> 01:44:19,560
Speaker 2: wants more, more and more and more and more more. So,

1759
01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:24,600
Speaker 2: the idea of expanding the regular season eighteen games is

1760
01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:27,680
Speaker 2: nothing new, all right, Believe it or not. As far

1761
01:44:27,800 --> 01:44:31,000
Speaker 2: back as twenty ten, owners wanted to do it, and

1762
01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:33,360
Speaker 2: that's when the league and the players negotiated a new

1763
01:44:33,400 --> 01:44:38,120
Speaker 2: collective bargaining agreement that took place in twenty eleven. You

1764
01:44:38,240 --> 01:44:40,240
Speaker 2: had that Let's remember you had to lock out back

1765
01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:43,479
Speaker 2: in twenty ten, but they got a ten year deal,

1766
01:44:43,520 --> 01:44:46,679
Speaker 2: so you had to wait another decade before they expanded

1767
01:44:46,720 --> 01:44:49,599
Speaker 2: to seventeen games, which started in twenty twenty one. Now

1768
01:44:49,760 --> 01:44:53,080
Speaker 2: Roger Goodell wants eighteen games before I tell you what

1769
01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:57,519
Speaker 2: I know and the likelihood of not only could it happen,

1770
01:44:57,600 --> 01:45:02,479
Speaker 2: but when it would happen. Go back to the crew, Shay,

1771
01:45:02,920 --> 01:45:04,839
Speaker 2: would you like to see an eighteen game schedule?

1772
01:45:07,120 --> 01:45:09,799
Speaker 12: I mean it would depend on what would happen.

1773
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 11: If it would obviously, if if it would get changed

1774
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:15,519
Speaker 11: with the preseason game, or if they would just add

1775
01:45:15,720 --> 01:45:16,519
Speaker 11: up another one.

1776
01:45:16,960 --> 01:45:18,479
Speaker 2: No, no, they would. I think it would be instead

1777
01:45:18,520 --> 01:45:21,920
Speaker 2: of three preseason games and seventeen regular season games, you're

1778
01:45:21,920 --> 01:45:28,040
Speaker 2: talking about two preseason games and eighteen regular season games.

1779
01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:32,200
Speaker 2: That would back the Super Bowl up one more week,

1780
01:45:32,680 --> 01:45:34,600
Speaker 2: which would be President's Day week, and I get that

1781
01:45:34,680 --> 01:45:35,920
Speaker 2: money off. That's the idea.

1782
01:45:36,120 --> 01:45:40,240
Speaker 11: Okay, yeah, so I'd before that, to be honest, it's

1783
01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:46,960
Speaker 11: not adding anything extra. And I don't really enjoy preseason football,

1784
01:45:47,520 --> 01:45:50,479
Speaker 11: to be honest, as much as i'd like season football.

1785
01:45:50,560 --> 01:45:52,960
Speaker 12: I mean, I do like watching it, but it's just like, ah,

1786
01:45:53,120 --> 01:45:54,800
Speaker 12: can we get on with it? That's how I feel

1787
01:45:54,880 --> 01:45:55,200
Speaker 12: during it.

1788
01:45:56,000 --> 01:45:58,439
Speaker 11: So i'd be I think this is a great idea,

1789
01:45:58,560 --> 01:46:00,920
Speaker 11: and also for it being so that would make it

1790
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:02,240
Speaker 11: the first week of February.

1791
01:46:03,280 --> 01:46:04,960
Speaker 12: Correct, well, it with.

1792
01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:07,280
Speaker 2: The super Bowl would be the third week of February.

1793
01:46:07,560 --> 01:46:13,040
Speaker 2: Oh would they would butt up against President's Day weekend.

1794
01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:15,080
Speaker 12: So it would be on President's Day?

1795
01:46:15,240 --> 01:46:18,960
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, it'd be the Sunday before President's Day itself.

1796
01:46:19,720 --> 01:46:21,800
Speaker 2: Remember we did the Midnight Hour a couple months ago.

1797
01:46:21,880 --> 01:46:25,320
Speaker 2: Should Super Bowl Sunday the day after be a national holiday?

1798
01:46:25,360 --> 01:46:29,040
Speaker 2: And amazingly a lot of people wanted it. I don't

1799
01:46:29,080 --> 01:46:35,160
Speaker 2: know this can work out. Chef Kevin Wired eighteen game season,

1800
01:46:35,240 --> 01:46:35,600
Speaker 2: yes or no.

1801
01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:38,599
Speaker 7: Basically, since they're not going to go back to sixteen,

1802
01:46:38,640 --> 01:46:40,760
Speaker 7: I do prefer an even amount of games, so I

1803
01:46:40,840 --> 01:46:44,480
Speaker 7: will say eighteen games is something I prefer over seventeen.

1804
01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:47,400
Speaker 7: I know the players aren't necessarily through, and I don't

1805
01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:49,760
Speaker 7: blame him for it either, with how tough it is

1806
01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:54,080
Speaker 7: just getting through sixteen, seventeen and eventually eighteen games. So

1807
01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:57,240
Speaker 7: I do think they're going to negotiate a second by

1808
01:46:57,439 --> 01:46:59,840
Speaker 7: maybe move up the start of the season to Labor Day.

1809
01:47:00,120 --> 01:47:01,840
Speaker 5: Like I think it was like maybe what twenty years

1810
01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:02,519
Speaker 5: ago they would.

1811
01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:04,000
Speaker 2: Came, Oh, not even that long ago. I used to

1812
01:47:04,080 --> 01:47:06,880
Speaker 2: love that Labor Day weekend, but go ahead. Yeah, now

1813
01:47:06,960 --> 01:47:09,920
Speaker 2: now it's the weekend They've They've created this like ten

1814
01:47:10,120 --> 01:47:14,200
Speaker 2: twelve day gap from the final preseason game to the

1815
01:47:14,240 --> 01:47:16,400
Speaker 2: first regular season game, and I don't think people like it.

1816
01:47:16,640 --> 01:47:16,800
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1817
01:47:16,840 --> 01:47:18,720
Speaker 7: I don't like that either. I think it's too long.

1818
01:47:18,840 --> 01:47:21,000
Speaker 7: I want to see the season moved up a week

1819
01:47:21,160 --> 01:47:23,519
Speaker 7: and then push back the Super Bowl a week to

1820
01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:26,080
Speaker 7: President's Day, so you'd have a start on Labor Day weekend,

1821
01:47:26,160 --> 01:47:28,320
Speaker 7: the end on President's Day weekend. You'd have a second

1822
01:47:28,400 --> 01:47:33,200
Speaker 7: buy which I would use to make before the Thursday game,

1823
01:47:33,320 --> 01:47:36,919
Speaker 7: so the games, the quality of those games would increase

1824
01:47:36,920 --> 01:47:38,960
Speaker 7: since they would actually be well rested and not playing

1825
01:47:39,040 --> 01:47:42,200
Speaker 7: on three days rest essentially, and with the fact that

1826
01:47:42,520 --> 01:47:45,800
Speaker 7: you have Labor Day. I'm pretty sure that the law

1827
01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:50,400
Speaker 7: governing broadcasting on Friday nights and Saturdays doesn't take effect

1828
01:47:50,840 --> 01:47:52,400
Speaker 7: till the second weekend in September.

1829
01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:53,840
Speaker 5: So if the league really wanted to.

1830
01:47:55,320 --> 01:47:59,040
Speaker 7: Starting it on Labor Day weekend, they could have Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday.

1831
01:47:59,120 --> 01:48:01,720
Speaker 7: They could have a whole like five days worth of

1832
01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:03,520
Speaker 7: games to kick off the season.

1833
01:48:03,280 --> 01:48:07,519
Speaker 2: Wouldn't and then you start to Thursday. The tradition is

1834
01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:13,040
Speaker 2: really well in Trench now that first annual NFL game

1835
01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:16,160
Speaker 2: on Thursday night. The matches to you know, behemoths. Remember

1836
01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:18,479
Speaker 2: this last year was Detroit and Kansas City. Hell of

1837
01:48:18,560 --> 01:48:19,360
Speaker 2: an entertaining game.

1838
01:48:19,760 --> 01:48:22,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, so yeah, I would do that. Have the Super

1839
01:48:22,040 --> 01:48:24,960
Speaker 7: Bowl champion hosts the Thursday night kickoff, have games on

1840
01:48:25,120 --> 01:48:28,880
Speaker 7: Friday and Saturday. That way, you could have fully rested

1841
01:48:28,920 --> 01:48:30,760
Speaker 7: teams for the next Thursday. You can maybe take a

1842
01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:32,639
Speaker 7: team from the Thursday and a team from the Friday

1843
01:48:32,680 --> 01:48:36,840
Speaker 7: game play next Thursday, while having teams for the third

1844
01:48:36,920 --> 01:48:39,599
Speaker 7: week of Thursday, take a bye week two, so they're

1845
01:48:39,600 --> 01:48:42,479
Speaker 7: well rested for that, continue to cycle all the way through,

1846
01:48:43,080 --> 01:48:45,200
Speaker 7: have the Super Bowl on President's Day week, and I

1847
01:48:45,280 --> 01:48:47,840
Speaker 7: think it would create a much better game overall if

1848
01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:50,040
Speaker 7: they were to implement that type of formula.

1849
01:48:50,280 --> 01:48:51,080
Speaker 5: That's just my opinion.

1850
01:48:51,439 --> 01:48:52,920
Speaker 2: Fair enough, Mark Ramsey, your.

1851
01:48:52,840 --> 01:48:56,600
Speaker 13: Thoughts, All I see is okay, So it's great to

1852
01:48:56,720 --> 01:48:59,680
Speaker 13: have more games, but then there's the punishment on the

1853
01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:02,560
Speaker 13: by and then we're going to hear about all the

1854
01:49:02,640 --> 01:49:06,040
Speaker 13: different injuries, the new injury that are coming up because

1855
01:49:06,760 --> 01:49:11,000
Speaker 13: everybody is constantly in motion having to play, get ready, play,

1856
01:49:11,120 --> 01:49:13,680
Speaker 13: get ready. So it's you know, it's good for the

1857
01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:18,120
Speaker 13: money part, it's good for having games, but no more

1858
01:49:18,240 --> 01:49:19,559
Speaker 13: quarterbacks are going to get hurt.

1859
01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:21,280
Speaker 12: More running backs are going to get hurt.

1860
01:49:21,360 --> 01:49:24,240
Speaker 13: So as much as we want it, it's going to

1861
01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:27,800
Speaker 13: cost us because of all the punishment to everybody's body.

1862
01:49:29,280 --> 01:49:31,360
Speaker 2: We're going to hear that, there's no doubt about it.

1863
01:49:31,479 --> 01:49:33,040
Speaker 2: But I think there'll be a bump and pay and

1864
01:49:33,120 --> 01:49:35,720
Speaker 2: they'll navigate their way around it like they do with

1865
01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:38,880
Speaker 2: everything else. But you're not wrong. That will be an

1866
01:49:38,880 --> 01:49:42,360
Speaker 2: aspect all of this. Here's what I know based on

1867
01:49:42,439 --> 01:49:45,600
Speaker 2: people I've talk to, we don't really have a timeline

1868
01:49:46,600 --> 01:49:49,840
Speaker 2: for when the league will expand to eighteen games, as

1869
01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:52,520
Speaker 2: they do, and we don't know any of the specifics

1870
01:49:52,560 --> 01:49:55,640
Speaker 2: and how that would happen. But we do know this.

1871
01:49:56,040 --> 01:50:01,320
Speaker 2: The NFL's current CBA runs through March twenty thirty, six

1872
01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:05,880
Speaker 2: more years. So if the NFL were to expand to

1873
01:50:05,960 --> 01:50:08,560
Speaker 2: eighteen games, the first thing they would have to do

1874
01:50:08,720 --> 01:50:13,880
Speaker 2: is completely renegotiate the collective bargaining agreement with the players union.

1875
01:50:15,160 --> 01:50:16,800
Speaker 2: They don't often do that. I don't know if they've ever.

1876
01:50:16,920 --> 01:50:19,240
Speaker 2: I have to check it out. Maybe someone can tweet

1877
01:50:19,280 --> 01:50:21,479
Speaker 2: at it. I don't know if they've ever done that.

1878
01:50:22,320 --> 01:50:24,639
Speaker 2: So if you're going to get to eighteen games right now,

1879
01:50:24,760 --> 01:50:27,880
Speaker 2: it feels like the soonest you could do it would

1880
01:50:27,880 --> 01:50:30,519
Speaker 2: be the twenty thirty season, and it would have to

1881
01:50:30,560 --> 01:50:34,160
Speaker 2: be under a new CBA. That seems the most likely

1882
01:50:35,680 --> 01:50:40,880
Speaker 2: situation at this time. Then you've got the media considerations.

1883
01:50:40,920 --> 01:50:43,880
Speaker 2: An extra week during the regular season means to total

1884
01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:49,679
Speaker 2: sixteen additional games for broadcasters to pay up for. That means,

1885
01:50:49,760 --> 01:50:51,080
Speaker 2: I mean, the NFL is not going to give these

1886
01:50:51,080 --> 01:50:53,880
Speaker 2: into games and when network for free. Now the NFL

1887
01:50:53,960 --> 01:50:57,080
Speaker 2: has a current TV deal that's worth one hundred and

1888
01:50:57,280 --> 01:51:01,800
Speaker 2: ten billion dollars that runs through twenty thirty three, but

1889
01:51:02,479 --> 01:51:05,000
Speaker 2: the NFL can opt out of most of them after

1890
01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:08,439
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty nine season and out of the agreement

1891
01:51:08,479 --> 01:51:13,760
Speaker 2: with Disney after twenty thirty. That lines up again with

1892
01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:18,240
Speaker 2: the next CBA when they've got to renegotiate or they've

1893
01:51:18,280 --> 01:51:21,880
Speaker 2: got to negotiate, then the next CBA after the current

1894
01:51:21,960 --> 01:51:25,519
Speaker 2: one expires. And then we talked about this, Kevin, he

1895
01:51:25,640 --> 01:51:29,080
Speaker 2: talked about this. We've got a look to calendar. Roger

1896
01:51:29,160 --> 01:51:31,720
Speaker 2: Goodell has basically floated the possibility of the Super Bowl,

1897
01:51:32,479 --> 01:51:36,040
Speaker 2: which currently takes place on the second Sunday every February,

1898
01:51:37,200 --> 01:51:40,720
Speaker 2: falling on the weekend of President's Day, which would be

1899
01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:44,479
Speaker 2: commemorated on the which is always commemorated excuse me, on

1900
01:51:44,680 --> 01:51:48,080
Speaker 2: the third Monday in February. So under the current schedule,

1901
01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:51,280
Speaker 2: the stars kind of start to align. In twenty twenty seven,

1902
01:51:52,360 --> 01:51:57,479
Speaker 2: I believe it's Super Bowl what let's see twenty twenty seven,

1903
01:51:57,520 --> 01:52:00,360
Speaker 2: that would be Super Bowl sixty one. It's going to

1904
01:52:00,360 --> 01:52:04,280
Speaker 2: be played at Sofi Stadium. That's going to be played Sunday,

1905
01:52:04,320 --> 01:52:08,040
Speaker 2: February fourteenth, which is the day before President's Day. But

1906
01:52:08,200 --> 01:52:13,479
Speaker 2: that matchup only happens once a decade. The other time

1907
01:52:13,520 --> 01:52:18,439
Speaker 2: the other nine years, President's Day falls on the third February. Well,

1908
01:52:18,640 --> 01:52:20,920
Speaker 2: it'll let me back up. Let me do the math

1909
01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:24,320
Speaker 2: here for you. So it makes sense President's Day is

1910
01:52:24,520 --> 01:52:29,800
Speaker 2: always always on the third February of the third Monday

1911
01:52:29,800 --> 01:52:35,599
Speaker 2: in February. But if the third Monday in February falls

1912
01:52:35,680 --> 01:52:38,519
Speaker 2: on February fifteenth, then you've got February eighth and February first,

1913
01:52:38,560 --> 01:52:41,880
Speaker 2: so that's the third Monday. So this is already going

1914
01:52:41,960 --> 01:52:47,160
Speaker 2: to happen in twenty twenty seven. We're going to have

1915
01:52:47,280 --> 01:52:51,080
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl where by the next day is President's Day.

1916
01:52:51,080 --> 01:52:53,479
Speaker 2: So it's going to happen here in what three years?

1917
01:52:55,800 --> 01:52:58,400
Speaker 2: So but if you push back the schedule the Super

1918
01:52:58,439 --> 01:53:01,200
Speaker 2: Bowl President's Day weekend, if they can align it up

1919
01:53:01,240 --> 01:53:03,760
Speaker 2: every year, I think people would like that. Now you

1920
01:53:03,800 --> 01:53:06,800
Speaker 2: want to was it, Kevin, you brought up the extra

1921
01:53:06,920 --> 01:53:12,040
Speaker 2: bye week? Yeah, this has already been bannied about. A

1922
01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:13,840
Speaker 2: lot of folks have suggested, well, if we're gonna have

1923
01:53:13,880 --> 01:53:16,120
Speaker 2: an eighteen game schedule, we need to include a second

1924
01:53:16,160 --> 01:53:19,400
Speaker 2: bye week for each team. Unfortunately, if you do that,

1925
01:53:20,400 --> 01:53:24,479
Speaker 2: that Kai boshes Roger Goodell's President Day weekend idea, unless

1926
01:53:24,520 --> 01:53:27,000
Speaker 2: the NFL kicks off week one on Labor Day, which

1927
01:53:27,040 --> 01:53:29,840
Speaker 2: you just said, instead of following week, or Labor Day

1928
01:53:29,840 --> 01:53:33,360
Speaker 2: weekend instead of the following week. You know, President's Stay

1929
01:53:33,400 --> 01:53:36,519
Speaker 2: weekend is also when, believe me, this is gonna be

1930
01:53:36,680 --> 01:53:40,720
Speaker 2: This is gonna be a wrestling match because President's Day

1931
01:53:40,760 --> 01:53:43,000
Speaker 2: weekend is also when you got the NBA All Star Game,

1932
01:53:43,560 --> 01:53:46,920
Speaker 2: the NBA All Star Festivities, the Daytona five hundred and

1933
01:53:47,439 --> 01:53:51,400
Speaker 2: if the NFL decides to swoop in and take that date,

1934
01:53:51,880 --> 01:53:53,800
Speaker 2: what do you want to bet the NFL moves, the

1935
01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:59,040
Speaker 2: NBA moves their All Star weekend. So got a couple

1936
01:53:59,120 --> 01:54:01,880
Speaker 2: more thoughts on that, by the way, One other quick

1937
01:54:01,920 --> 01:54:05,960
Speaker 2: footnote on the NIL there's a player with an all

1938
01:54:06,080 --> 01:54:09,800
Speaker 2: time classic name in college football. He is now entering

1939
01:54:09,880 --> 01:54:12,080
Speaker 2: the transfer portal as well. I gotta share this with you.

1940
01:54:12,200 --> 01:54:15,120
Speaker 2: Coming up, I'm Bernie Fratto. We're coming to live from

Speaker 2: coming up in nine minutes. The dance sensation sweep in

1946
01:54:31,160 --> 01:54:34,360
Speaker 2: the nation. What kind of brand new fool you followed

1947
01:54:34,400 --> 01:54:39,720
Speaker 2: by what my name? Good discussions tonight, very good discussions

1948
01:54:39,800 --> 01:54:46,560
Speaker 2: on the transfer portal, and of course the NIL got

1949
01:54:46,640 --> 01:54:52,360
Speaker 2: some pretty good tweets as well. One gentleman see just

1950
01:54:52,520 --> 01:54:57,760
Speaker 2: his name is Robert Andresek. He said, good with athletes

1951
01:54:57,920 --> 01:55:02,000
Speaker 2: making whatever they can, Nil, but if you go to

1952
01:55:02,080 --> 01:55:04,400
Speaker 2: a college, you must stay two years unless your coach

1953
01:55:04,560 --> 01:55:08,280
Speaker 2: leaves or you're fired. Okay, that's not a bad idea.

1954
01:55:09,280 --> 01:55:11,560
Speaker 2: That's not a bad idea. That starts to add some

1955
01:55:11,720 --> 01:55:14,720
Speaker 2: of the uniformity and structure to this. So you can't

1956
01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,760
Speaker 2: just hop here, hop there, you know, end up on

1957
01:55:17,840 --> 01:55:20,680
Speaker 2: your third school in three years because the money takes

1958
01:55:20,720 --> 01:55:24,840
Speaker 2: you there. You go to a school, you take the money,

1959
01:55:25,080 --> 01:55:27,600
Speaker 2: but you've got to stay at least two years unless

1960
01:55:27,720 --> 01:55:34,880
Speaker 2: your coach leaves. Not a bad idea, you may or

1961
01:55:34,960 --> 01:55:39,160
Speaker 2: may not remember. Years and years and years ago, the

1962
01:55:39,200 --> 01:55:42,440
Speaker 2: Florida Marlins had a third baseman named Josh Booty, and

1963
01:55:42,560 --> 01:55:45,880
Speaker 2: Josh Boody was actually a very good quarterback at LSU.

1964
01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:50,880
Speaker 2: It just goes back to the nineties, and I bet

1965
01:55:50,920 --> 01:55:54,680
Speaker 2: you remember there was a quarterback named John David Booty

1966
01:55:54,760 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 2: who played at USC At LSU also had a receiver

1967
01:56:00,600 --> 01:56:05,280
Speaker 2: named Abram Boody who had you know, his receiver at

1968
01:56:05,400 --> 01:56:09,640
Speaker 2: LSU from nineteen ninety seven to two thousand. Well, you know,

1969
01:56:09,920 --> 01:56:12,880
Speaker 2: sometimes you're sitting around with your buddies, maybe having your

1990
01:57:28,000 --> 01:57:30,480
Speaker 2: he wants to be on the field and the reason

1991
01:57:30,560 --> 01:57:33,320
Speaker 2: people know his name is because of the way he plays.

1992
01:57:34,440 --> 01:57:37,920

1993
01:57:38,120 --> 01:57:40,040

2004
01:58:17,320 --> 01:58:21,120
Speaker 2: see our staff here, the Bernie Frowner Show. Well we

2005
01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:24,840
Speaker 2: look long and hard, far and wide twenty four seven

2006
01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:29,240
Speaker 2: three sixty five, because people engage in activities and behaviors

2007
01:58:30,040 --> 01:58:34,600
Speaker 2: and events all around the globe and certainly in our

2008
01:58:34,880 --> 01:58:39,160
Speaker 2: great country from seed to Oily Sea. Sometimes these behaviors,

2009
01:58:39,200 --> 01:58:42,800
Speaker 2: well they're innocuous and silly and stupid and not a

2010
01:58:42,840 --> 01:58:45,640
Speaker 2: big deal, just kind of embarrassing. Other times they are

2011
01:58:45,760 --> 01:58:48,160
Speaker 2: far more serious and nefarious, and sometimes they can even

2012
01:58:48,240 --> 01:58:52,040
Speaker 2: land you in jail. But any way you slice it,

2013
01:58:52,280 --> 01:58:56,000
Speaker 2: any way you dice it, any way you characterize it,

2014
01:58:56,120 --> 01:59:00,200
Speaker 2: these behaviors, well, they always leave us scratching our had

2015
01:59:00,240 --> 01:59:03,760
Speaker 2: and asking ourselves, what kind of brand new fool of you?

2016
01:59:10,000 --> 01:59:12,480
Speaker 5: So, what kind of brand new fool are you?

2017
01:59:14,080 --> 01:59:18,040
Speaker 2: This one is so on brand for the brand new

2018
01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:20,720
Speaker 2: fool subject matter. We've been doing this a couple of

2019
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:24,760
Speaker 2: years that when I saw it, I said to myself,

2020
01:59:25,720 --> 01:59:28,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've seen one this unique. They're

2021
01:59:28,400 --> 01:59:31,120
Speaker 2: all unique in their own way, but this one you

2022
01:59:31,200 --> 01:59:36,560
Speaker 2: will see is particularly weird. We take you to Dublin

2023
01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:41,760
Speaker 2: not Ireland. We take you to Dublin, California, and we

2024
01:59:41,920 --> 01:59:44,760
Speaker 2: introduce you to a forty one year old woman who

2025
01:59:44,800 --> 01:59:50,280
Speaker 2: has been identified as Brandy Jones. Now, Brandy Jones was

2026
01:59:50,360 --> 01:59:56,040
Speaker 2: scheduled to make a court appearance recently in Dublin. Yeah,

2027
01:59:56,160 --> 01:59:57,600
Speaker 2: she got in a bit of a little bit of

2028
01:59:57,640 --> 02:00:03,120
Speaker 2: a trouble, actually a lot of trouble. See, you're kind

2029
02:00:03,160 --> 02:00:07,879
Speaker 2: of not supposed to steal cars. Well, she was scheduled

2030
02:00:07,880 --> 02:00:11,640
Speaker 2: to make a court appearance because she was arrested for

2031
02:00:11,800 --> 02:00:16,720
Speaker 2: stealing a car. So you know, you gotta find I

2032
02:00:16,760 --> 02:00:20,320
Speaker 2: don't even know if Brandy Jones has a car, but

2033
02:00:20,840 --> 02:00:25,360
Speaker 2: you gotta show for your court dates. Well, the good

2034
02:00:25,440 --> 02:00:27,920
Speaker 2: news is she did show up for her court date

2035
02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:34,800
Speaker 2: at the Dublin courthouse. But something seemed off, something didn't

2036
02:00:34,880 --> 02:00:39,720
Speaker 2: see right. And you know, our law enforcement people are

2037
02:00:39,840 --> 02:00:44,080
Speaker 2: very smart people and they're trained to look for things

2038
02:00:44,120 --> 02:00:46,920
Speaker 2: out of the ordinary. So as Jones was on our

2039
02:00:46,920 --> 02:00:49,320
Speaker 2: way to the East County Hall of Justice and when

2040
02:00:49,360 --> 02:00:54,360
Speaker 2: she arrived at the Dublin Courthouse, authorities knew something was

2041
02:00:54,560 --> 02:01:01,360
Speaker 2: off and it was this Jones arrived in a car.

2042
02:01:01,440 --> 02:01:06,600
Speaker 2: Apparently she had a car, but apparently, well she was

2043
02:01:06,720 --> 02:01:11,560
Speaker 2: in court to answer charges for stealing a car, and

2044
02:01:11,560 --> 02:01:14,280
Speaker 2: in order to get the car get to court, she

2045
02:01:14,440 --> 02:01:16,520
Speaker 2: needed to get a car. So what did she do?

2046
02:01:17,680 --> 02:01:23,080
Speaker 2: She used another stolen car to get to the court appearance.

2047
02:01:23,800 --> 02:01:28,800
Speaker 2: As the way, the Dublin police announced, Yeah, well right

2048
02:01:28,920 --> 02:01:31,920
Speaker 2: after that, she didn't need to go to Courtney Moore

2049
02:01:32,080 --> 02:01:34,800
Speaker 2: authorities just took her right back to Santa Rina Jail,

2050
02:01:35,520 --> 02:01:38,560
Speaker 2: which by the way, was in a walking distance, so

2051
02:01:38,680 --> 02:01:42,920
Speaker 2: Lisa didn't have to steal another car. Brandy Jones in

2052
02:01:43,080 --> 02:01:47,120
Speaker 2: court to appear after being arrested for stealing a car.

2053
02:01:47,640 --> 02:01:50,240
Speaker 2: How does she get to her set court appearance? She

2054
02:01:50,360 --> 02:01:55,200
Speaker 2: used another stolen car. Brandy Jones of Dublin, California. What

2055
02:01:55,480 --> 02:02:00,400
Speaker 2: kind of brand new fool of you? All right, chef, you're.

2056
02:02:00,320 --> 02:02:01,200
Speaker 5: Next, all right?

2057
02:02:01,320 --> 02:02:05,280
Speaker 7: So we go to Yellowstone National Park where a guy

2058
02:02:05,520 --> 02:02:08,920
Speaker 7: really found out the phrase f around and find out

2059
02:02:10,560 --> 02:02:14,760
Speaker 7: there's a reason they tell you to stay away from

2060
02:02:14,920 --> 02:02:18,919
Speaker 7: the animals, in particular the bison. Do not get anywhere

2061
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:21,720
Speaker 7: near the buffalo. Because it says right here that a

2062
02:02:21,840 --> 02:02:25,640
Speaker 7: forty year old man from Idaho Falls was injured by

2063
02:02:25,680 --> 02:02:30,280
Speaker 7: a bison on April twenty first. The man had quote harassed,

2064
02:02:30,320 --> 02:02:33,080
Speaker 7: they heard a bison and kicked one in the leg.

2065
02:02:33,720 --> 02:02:34,360
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

2066
02:02:34,600 --> 02:02:37,880
Speaker 7: Park rangers then found the man's car near the park's

2067
02:02:37,880 --> 02:02:41,080
Speaker 7: west entrance. They stopped it and the man was arrested

2068
02:02:41,160 --> 02:02:43,600
Speaker 7: and charged with being under the influence no surprise there

2069
02:02:44,480 --> 02:02:49,480
Speaker 7: to a degree that may endanger oneself, disorderly conduct, approaching wildlife,

2070
02:02:49,600 --> 02:02:52,960
Speaker 7: and disturbing wildlife. And the man suffered minor injuries from

2071
02:02:53,000 --> 02:02:56,200
Speaker 7: the bison encountered was treated at a local hospital. He's lucky,

2072
02:02:56,280 --> 02:02:59,720
Speaker 7: that's all he had before he was transported to the

2073
02:03:00,000 --> 02:03:03,200
Speaker 7: local county detention center. Of the thirty seven year old

2074
02:03:03,280 --> 02:03:05,600
Speaker 7: driver of the car also a fool because he was

2075
02:03:05,680 --> 02:03:08,040
Speaker 7: arrested in charge of driving under the influence as well

2076
02:03:08,080 --> 02:03:12,200
Speaker 7: and also with disturbing wildlife. So both individuals scheduled to

2077
02:03:12,280 --> 02:03:15,360
Speaker 7: appear in court. Each of the violations may resultant fines

2078
02:03:15,440 --> 02:03:19,280
Speaker 7: up to five thousand dollars and six months in jail. So,

2079
02:03:19,960 --> 02:03:23,520
Speaker 7: unidentified man from Idaho Falls, Idaho, what kind of brand

2080
02:03:23,520 --> 02:03:23,920
Speaker 7: new fool?

2081
02:03:23,960 --> 02:03:24,920
Speaker 5: Are you all right?

2082
02:03:25,000 --> 02:03:27,400
Speaker 2: Good one, good one, chef. So we go from Dublin,

2083
02:03:27,520 --> 02:03:32,800
Speaker 2: California to Idaho Falls, Idaho. Shame Mogan guard, You're up next, bud.

2084
02:03:33,520 --> 02:03:36,839
Speaker 12: So what is what kind of fool, are you without Florida.

2085
02:03:36,880 --> 02:03:37,600
Speaker 12: We're taking it back.

2086
02:03:37,680 --> 02:03:39,920
Speaker 2: I was about to say, yeah, yeah, right.

2087
02:03:39,880 --> 02:03:40,560
Speaker 12: That's what I'm saying.

2088
02:03:40,560 --> 02:03:42,360
Speaker 11: I didn't do it last week, or I wasn't here

2089
02:03:42,440 --> 02:03:43,920
Speaker 11: last week, so I was going to say I have

2090
02:03:44,080 --> 02:03:46,839
Speaker 11: to do it this week. But anyway, it's Margate, Florida.

2091
02:03:47,760 --> 02:03:50,920
Speaker 11: A man was arrested for allegedly etching his own name

2092
02:03:51,440 --> 02:03:54,640
Speaker 11: in a Broward's Sheriff's Office police car.

2093
02:03:56,360 --> 02:03:56,400
Speaker 2: So.

2094
02:03:56,480 --> 02:03:59,880
Speaker 11: According to records, on April twenty ninth, the Margaret Police

2095
02:04:00,000 --> 02:04:03,320
Speaker 11: Department received reports of property damage that occurred on Southwest

2096
02:04:03,440 --> 02:04:07,200
Speaker 11: First Street Prawn. Arriving at the scene, officers discovered a

2097
02:04:07,360 --> 02:04:11,440
Speaker 11: marked BSO vehicle with significant damage to the driver's side hood.

2098
02:04:12,000 --> 02:04:15,160
Speaker 11: The report shows that the damage included a medium size

2099
02:04:15,200 --> 02:04:20,760
Speaker 11: hold etched with the name etched with the name Enderlinn Leonce,

2100
02:04:21,080 --> 02:04:26,640
Speaker 11: you cannot be Apparently, witnesses described. The suspect later was

2101
02:04:26,720 --> 02:04:33,520
Speaker 11: identified as Ender Leonce. Surprisingly, SO deputies in the area

2102
02:04:33,600 --> 02:04:36,800
Speaker 11: may contact with Leonce at his home, where he reportedly

2103
02:04:36,840 --> 02:04:41,440
Speaker 11: admitted to the act. Surprisingly, during the interview, Leonce made

2104
02:04:41,480 --> 02:04:44,240
Speaker 11: several spontaneous utter insas saying he did it and he

2105
02:04:44,360 --> 02:04:47,400
Speaker 11: committed a crime, proud of himself.

2106
02:04:47,520 --> 02:04:47,680
Speaker 6: Huh.

2107
02:04:48,120 --> 02:04:51,400
Speaker 11: The damage to the vehicles estimated at approximately one thousand

2108
02:04:51,640 --> 02:04:55,320
Speaker 11: in repair costs. Given Lyonce's distressed mental state, he was

2109
02:04:55,400 --> 02:04:59,520
Speaker 11: sent to the hospital, but was later released and turned

2110
02:04:59,560 --> 02:05:02,960
Speaker 11: over to Broward's Sheriff's office without further incident.

2111
02:05:04,120 --> 02:05:05,640
Speaker 2: But facing the police go ahead.

2112
02:05:06,080 --> 02:05:08,480
Speaker 12: That just leads me to say, Leonce, what kind of

2113
02:05:08,520 --> 02:05:08,920
Speaker 12: fool are you?

2114
02:05:09,200 --> 02:05:09,400

Speaker 2: By the way, Scott Shapiro's Minnesota Twins have won twelve

2137

Speaker 2: You know, Babe Ruth struck out like thirteen times in

2145
02:07:00,440 --> 02:07:04,400
Speaker 2: his career. Reggie Jackson, believe it or not, has actually

2146
02:07:04,800 --> 02:07:07,240
Speaker 2: doubled that more than I believe more than double that

2147
02:07:07,360 --> 02:07:11,400
Speaker 2: or around doubled it. But well, in that neighborhood, all right, Well,

2152
02:07:28,040 --> 02:07:32,360

2153
02:07:32,440 --> 02:07:36,200
Speaker 2: of maybe Gee Lafleur, the legendary Montreal Canadians player with

2154
02:07:36,320 --> 02:07:41,880
Speaker 2: the flying hair. I lead all NHL coaches in history

Speaker 5: This is my weak spot. I'm gonna guess I know

2159
02:07:52,080 --> 02:07:52,480
Speaker 5: what's wrong.

2160
02:07:52,600 --> 02:07:52,880
Speaker 12: Let's go.

2161
02:07:53,000 --> 02:07:53,920
Speaker 5: Barry Merrilrose.

2162
02:07:54,560 --> 02:08:01,240
Speaker 2: Oh gosh, Barry Melrose. Love Barry. Not Barry Melrose. All right.

2163
02:08:01,360 --> 02:08:04,680
Speaker 2: I hold the all time record for winning Stanley Cupps

2164
02:08:04,680 --> 02:08:09,120
Speaker 2: as an NHL head coach with nine. Shay Mognguard, What

2165
02:08:09,280 --> 02:08:09,760
Speaker 2: my name.

2166
02:08:12,760 --> 02:08:13,720
Speaker 6: Is it is? It?

2167
02:08:14,120 --> 02:08:15,080
Speaker 12: Is it the toe guy?

2168
02:08:16,680 --> 02:08:17,600
Speaker 2: Do you think of Toll Blake?

2169
02:08:17,760 --> 02:08:17,920
Speaker 6: Yeah?

2170
02:08:17,960 --> 02:08:20,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that guy Blake. He's good names tonight, guys. So

2171
02:08:20,880 --> 02:08:24,240
Speaker 2: it's actually Scotty Bowman, the legendary Scotty Bowman, who I

2172
02:08:24,280 --> 02:08:26,120
Speaker 2: think is the greatest coach of all time in the esport.

2173
02:08:26,520 --> 02:08:29,160
Speaker 2: He not only won nine Stanley Cupps as a head coach,

2174
02:08:29,600 --> 02:08:33,600
Speaker 2: he won with three different franchises in three different eras,

2175
02:08:33,680 --> 02:08:35,520
Speaker 2: and the three he won with the Red Wings while

2176
02:08:35,520 --> 02:08:37,839
Speaker 2: I was there. He did it with three different goalies

2177
02:08:38,600 --> 02:08:43,240
Speaker 2: Chris Osgood, Mike Vernon, and Dominic Hashitt. So that's quite

2178
02:08:43,280 --> 02:08:50,320
Speaker 2: the variety there, spanning my god, probably thirty years. All right,

2179
02:08:51,040 --> 02:08:55,600
Speaker 2: let's go back to the NBA playoffs. The Clippers had

2180
02:08:55,720 --> 02:08:58,600
Speaker 2: high hopes for me, but I've actually already missed one

2181
02:08:58,960 --> 02:09:02,560
Speaker 2: and eighty one regular season games for the Clippers. Mark Ramsey,

Speaker 6: Yeah.

2187
02:09:18,520 --> 02:09:21,240
Speaker 2: I love Kawhi too, but he just he's just cursed

2188
02:09:21,240 --> 02:09:27,400
Speaker 2: with these injuries. All right. Before Doc Rivers took over

2189
02:09:28,320 --> 02:09:30,800
Speaker 2: for the Milwaukee Bucks, I had actually led the Bucks

2190
02:09:30,840 --> 02:09:35,080

02:09:38,080 --> 02:09:40,840
Speaker 2: Sure? Before Doc Rivers took over as head coach of

2194
02:09:40,840 --> 02:09:44,320
Speaker 2: the Milwaukee Bucks, I actually had led the Bucks to

2195
02:09:44,440 --> 02:09:46,640
Speaker 2: a thirty and thirteen record before being fired.

2196
02:09:46,720 --> 02:09:49,320
Speaker 5: Oh, that's on the tip of my tongue. It wasn't

2197
02:09:49,320 --> 02:09:50,200
Speaker 5: Mike Budenholzer.

2198
02:09:50,680 --> 02:09:53,000
Speaker 2: Not Mike Budenholzer. He got fired a couple of years before.

2199
02:09:54,360 --> 02:09:58,480
Speaker 2: Before Doc Rivers, took over. I had actually led the

2200
02:09:58,520 --> 02:10:00,840
Speaker 2: Bucks to a thirty and thirteen record this season before

2201
02:10:01,400 --> 02:10:03,280
Speaker 2: getting fired. Jane Ognger, what my name?

2202
02:10:05,280 --> 02:10:07,560
Speaker 12: So it was before Doc right, the coach before right

2203
02:10:07,600 --> 02:10:08,160
Speaker 12: before Doc?

2204
02:10:08,520 --> 02:10:13,680
Speaker 2: Correct, Adrian, Adrian Griffin very good to go, maybe forty

2205
02:10:13,720 --> 02:10:16,280
Speaker 2: three games. I don't know what we're wrong there, but Mark,

2206
02:10:16,360 --> 02:10:21,960
Speaker 2: as you have heard, Mark Medina is very vehement about

2207
02:10:22,040 --> 02:10:25,840
Speaker 2: the fact that you know, Griffin needed to go. So

2208
02:10:26,280 --> 02:10:30,160
Speaker 2: we'll leave it at that. Uh, all right. Sticking with

2209

Speaker 2: win the Triple Crown. Kevin Warett or checked at Mark

2276
02:14:34,000 --> 02:14:35,320
Speaker 2: Rams's your turn? What my name?

2277
02:14:36,680 --> 02:14:37,560
Speaker 5: Seattle Slow?

2278
02:14:38,080 --> 02:14:40,680
Speaker 2: Well? Those are good names. It's actually Justified just back

Speaker 2: in twenty eighteen Justify, So we'll see if well, Mystic

2280
02:14:44,560 --> 02:14:47,560
Speaker 2: Dan was an eighteen to one odds today, So I

2281
02:14:47,600 --> 02:14:50,440
Speaker 2: don't know if I like his chances. But there you go, guys.

2282
02:14:50,480 --> 02:14:53,040
Speaker 2: Great job, another rising edition of What kind of brand

2283
02:14:53,040 --> 02:14:55,920
Speaker 2: new Fool of You? And What My Name is? In

2284
02:14:56,040 --> 02:14:59,560
Speaker 2: the books coming up? You know, the Falcons took a

2285
02:14:59,600 --> 02:15:03,760
Speaker 2: lot of hit over drafting Michael Pennix. But you know what,

2286
02:15:04,600 --> 02:15:07,800
Speaker 2: there is one situation that might cause you to rethink

2287
02:15:07,880 --> 02:15:11,120
Speaker 2: that a little bit having to do with an exception

2288
02:15:11,680 --> 02:15:13,240
Speaker 2: on how they might get out of the Kirk Cousins

2289
02:15:13,320 --> 02:15:16,280
Speaker 2: contract if they needed to a little bit of a loophole.

2290
02:15:16,600 --> 02:15:18,920
Speaker 2: I'm Bernie Fraddle Company Live from Las Vegas, Fox Sports

2291
02:15:19,000 --> 02:15:21,440
Speaker 2: Radio Diirect dot Com studios. Keep it locked to Bernie

2292
02:15:21,480 --> 02:15:25,360
Speaker 2: Frattle Show, Fox Sports Radio. All right, we're back on

2293
02:15:25,400 --> 02:15:27,920
Speaker 2: the Bernie Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio Company. Lie from

2294
02:15:27,920 --> 02:15:32,800
Speaker 2: the Tarak dot Com studios here in Las Vegas. Falcons

2295
02:15:32,840 --> 02:15:35,440
Speaker 2: took a lot of heat for drafting Michael Pennix. I mean,

2296
02:15:35,480 --> 02:15:37,960
Speaker 2: they just offered Kirk Cousins one hundred and eighty million

2297
02:15:38,000 --> 02:15:42,200
Speaker 2: dollars and gave him ninety up front. What are you doing? Well,

2298
02:15:42,240 --> 02:15:44,760
Speaker 2: what if the Falcons wanted to get out of that contract. Remember,

2299
02:15:45,480 --> 02:15:51,800
Speaker 2: kirk Cousins is coming off an achilles injury. Remember last year,

2300
02:15:51,880 --> 02:15:54,400
Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo, he had that contract with the Raiders that

2301
02:15:54,520 --> 02:15:57,120
Speaker 2: had an out. That contract had an out in the

2302
02:15:57,160 --> 02:15:59,840
Speaker 2: event that Jimmy Garoppolo's foot injury prevented him from passing

2303
02:15:59,880 --> 02:16:02,880
Speaker 2: a physical before the start of the season, the Raiders

2304
02:16:02,880 --> 02:16:06,080
Speaker 2: could get out of it, and they did. Now this year,

2305
02:16:06,280 --> 02:16:11,440
Speaker 2: kirk Cousins explained during his he had an introductory press

2306
02:16:11,520 --> 02:16:14,640
Speaker 2: conference in Atlanta that he had passed the physical for

2307
02:16:14,840 --> 02:16:20,360
Speaker 2: everything but his Achilles tendon injury obviously, but he would

2308
02:16:20,440 --> 02:16:24,080
Speaker 2: have to pass an Achilles specific physical later. So then

2309
02:16:24,160 --> 02:16:27,600
Speaker 2: the Falcons use their eighth overall pick to draft Michael Panis.

2310
02:16:28,240 --> 02:16:33,400
Speaker 2: Let us all scratching our heads. But what if the

2311
02:16:33,480 --> 02:16:36,440
Speaker 2: Falcons can avoid the Cousins contract if he doesn't pass

2312
02:16:36,480 --> 02:16:40,400
Speaker 2: a physical before those specific deadline. Now, unlike the Raiders,

2313
02:16:41,320 --> 02:16:43,360
Speaker 2: the Falcons don't have an out, but they do have

2314
02:16:43,600 --> 02:16:55,240
Speaker 2: one very minor, small narrow proviso that apparently that Kirk

2315
02:16:55,280 --> 02:16:58,240
Speaker 2: cousins fifty million dollars signing bonus requires a passing with

2316
02:16:58,360 --> 02:17:04,000
Speaker 2: physical but specific excludes the pre existing Achilles injury quote,

2317
02:17:04,480 --> 02:17:09,840
Speaker 2: provided the player continues to rehabilitate such pre existing right

2318
02:17:09,879 --> 02:17:15,200
Speaker 2: Achilles injury as required by and under the supervision of

2319
02:17:15,360 --> 02:17:18,879
Speaker 2: the direction of the clubs had team physician and had

2320
02:17:18,879 --> 02:17:23,080
Speaker 2: athletic trainer. Remember how Brady always had his own guys

2321
02:17:23,120 --> 02:17:27,480
Speaker 2: and Russell Wilson met his own guys. Kirk Cousins can't

2322
02:17:27,520 --> 02:17:32,000
Speaker 2: do that is, but as long as Kirk Cousins does

2323
02:17:32,879 --> 02:17:36,160
Speaker 2: what the Atlanta team doctor says, and as long as

2324
02:17:36,240 --> 02:17:40,680
Speaker 2: he does what the Atlanta Falcons had a athletic trainer

2325
02:17:40,760 --> 02:17:44,120
Speaker 2: tell him to do regarding the Achilles' injury. Well, then

2326
02:17:44,120 --> 02:17:46,199
Speaker 2: the Falcons are on the hook for the full fifty million.

2327
02:17:47,240 --> 02:17:52,040
Speaker 2: Of course, that doesn't force the Falcons and Cousins, you know, indefinitely.

2328
02:17:52,680 --> 02:17:55,280
Speaker 2: There's only been twenty seven and a half million in

2329
02:17:55,520 --> 02:17:58,400
Speaker 2: salary due to Cousins. In twenty twenty five, you might

2330
02:17:58,480 --> 02:18:01,720
Speaker 2: be able to find a suitor Cousin decides to make

2331
02:18:01,760 --> 02:18:04,640
Speaker 2: a clean break or decides he wants to go rogue.

2332
02:18:05,040 --> 02:18:08,760
Speaker 2: Cousins does have enough trade clause and the Falcons would

2333
02:18:08,840 --> 02:18:12,200
Speaker 2: be hit with a thirty seven million dollars dead money

2334
02:18:12,240 --> 02:18:18,520
Speaker 2: cap hit. But they're not one married to Kirk Cousins.

2335
02:18:19,160 --> 02:18:23,480
Speaker 2: It all comes down to how does Michael Penix actually

2336
02:18:23,560 --> 02:18:26,360
Speaker 2: really look and when are they really gonna flip to

2337
02:18:26,560 --> 02:18:31,480
Speaker 2: Michael Panix. Okay, Atlanta said some stupid things. They're gonna

2338
02:18:31,520 --> 02:18:34,560
Speaker 2: difuse the situation by suggesting Panics could sit four or

2339
02:18:34,600 --> 02:18:37,280
Speaker 2: five years. That's just ridiculous. Why would you take a

2340
02:18:37,320 --> 02:18:40,080
Speaker 2: guy eighth overall and let him sit four or five years?

2341
02:18:40,280 --> 02:18:42,720
Speaker 2: This isn't Steve Young and Tampa Bay thirty five years ago,

2342
02:18:42,760 --> 02:18:46,400
Speaker 2: for crying out loud. There's a very slim chance, very

2343
02:18:46,720 --> 02:18:50,440
Speaker 2: very very very very very slim chance Cousins could trade

2344
02:18:51,320 --> 02:18:53,840
Speaker 2: be traded before the start of the season, if Panix

2345
02:18:53,879 --> 02:18:56,080
Speaker 2: lights it up in OTAs, or if another team loses

2346
02:18:56,080 --> 02:18:59,600
Speaker 2: their starting quarterback for the regular season starts. All these

2347
02:18:59,640 --> 02:19:01,480
Speaker 2: things are on the table. And by the way, it's

2348
02:19:01,520 --> 02:19:04,480
Speaker 2: not on their own possibility. Remember back in twenty sixteen,

2349
02:19:04,560 --> 02:19:07,680
Speaker 2: Teddy Bridgewater he got hurt le Vikings right before the

2350
02:19:07,680 --> 02:19:11,920
Speaker 2: start of the season, and uh they had to pivot.

2351
02:19:12,120 --> 02:19:14,760
Speaker 2: All right, So do I think any of this is

2352
02:19:14,800 --> 02:19:15,280
Speaker 2: gonna happen?

2353
02:19:15,440 --> 02:19:15,480
Speaker 1: No?

2354
02:19:16,080 --> 02:19:20,400
Speaker 2: No, I have no idea if Michael Pennix's the future

2355
02:19:20,680 --> 02:19:23,959
Speaker 2: when he's going to be the future. But the Falcons

2356
02:19:24,000 --> 02:19:25,560
Speaker 2: did what they did and now they have to live

2357
02:19:25,600 --> 02:19:28,280
Speaker 2: with it. Coming up, Chris Professor, World of Soccer. But

2358
02:19:28,800 --> 02:19:30,680
Speaker 2: first let's go back to our guy, the chef. Kevin

2359
02:19:30,680 --> 02:19:31,680
Speaker 2: Wyatt was the latest.

2360
02:19:31,920 --> 02:19:35,400
Speaker 7: Yeah playoff action both in the NBA and NHL. On

2361
02:19:35,680 --> 02:19:40,000
Speaker 7: Saturday night, Game one of the Western Conference semifinals, Timberwolves

2362
02:19:40,040 --> 02:19:42,959
Speaker 7: and Nuggets as in Minnesota wins this one one oh

2363
02:19:43,040 --> 02:19:46,680
Speaker 7: six ninety nine. Anthony Edwards a big reason why forty

2364
02:19:46,720 --> 02:19:49,480
Speaker 7: three points seven rebounds, also had himself three assists, in

2365
02:19:49,520 --> 02:19:52,400
Speaker 7: a couple of blocks as he had an outstanding performance

2366
02:19:52,440 --> 02:19:54,440
Speaker 7: again in Minnesota a one to nothing lead in this

2367
02:19:54,600 --> 02:19:58,200
Speaker 7: best of seven series. Nicol Jokica solid game as he

2368
02:19:58,320 --> 02:20:02,360
Speaker 7: usually does in the loss. Was almost almost had a

2369
02:20:02,400 --> 02:20:05,280
Speaker 7: triple double as he had himself thirty two points, eight

2370
02:20:05,400 --> 02:20:09,240
Speaker 7: rebounds and nine assists, but it wasn't enough, as Denver

2371
02:20:09,360 --> 02:20:13,960
Speaker 7: facing their first series deficit in this postseason. In the

2372
02:20:14,080 --> 02:20:17,560
Speaker 7: NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs, Maple Leafs Bruins Game seven of

2373
02:20:17,600 --> 02:20:21,040
Speaker 7: that first round Eastern Conference series, it went to overtime

2374
02:20:21,879 --> 02:20:26,320
Speaker 7: where the Boston Bruins win it on a David Poster

2375
02:20:26,480 --> 02:20:29,920
Speaker 7: Nark game winning goal two to one is the final

2376
02:20:30,440 --> 02:20:35,119
Speaker 7: as the Maple Leafs get eliminated. Despite having Austin Matthews back,

2377
02:20:35,160 --> 02:20:37,280
Speaker 7: he was questionable had missed the last few games, got

2378
02:20:37,360 --> 02:20:39,600
Speaker 7: himself an assistant three shots on goal, but it was

2379
02:20:39,640 --> 02:20:42,480
Speaker 7: not enough as Toronto again eliminated the Bruins move on

2380
02:20:43,120 --> 02:20:47,320
Speaker 7: to the second round. Major League Baseball some blowouts in

2381
02:20:47,360 --> 02:20:50,039
Speaker 7: the Lake Games. Dodgers pound the Braves eleven to two,

2382
02:20:50,040 --> 02:20:52,880
Speaker 7: although there was at unique milestone a Shoeo Tani breaking

2383
02:20:52,959 --> 02:20:56,080
Speaker 7: the record of his manager Dave Roberts for most home

2384
02:20:56,160 --> 02:20:59,119
Speaker 7: runs hit by a Dodgers player who was born in Japan,

2385
02:21:00,120 --> 02:21:03,440
Speaker 7: so he gifted Dave Roberts a Porsche, but just a

2386
02:21:03,520 --> 02:21:05,600
Speaker 7: toy Porsch, not a real wine, which was a kind

2387
02:21:05,600 --> 02:21:08,720
Speaker 7: of a funny thing. Padres over the Diamondbacks thirteen to

2388
02:21:08,800 --> 02:21:11,840
Speaker 7: wind up, Mariners over the Astros five nothing, Rays hold

2389
02:21:11,840 --> 02:21:14,560
Speaker 7: off the Mets three to one, and in the Kentucky

2390
02:21:14,680 --> 02:21:18,400
Speaker 7: Derby missed it, Dan winning it by a nose to

2391
02:21:18,480 --> 02:21:20,800
Speaker 7: take the first of the three triple crowd races. The

2392
02:21:20,879 --> 02:21:23,879
Speaker 7: Preakness and Belmont are the next two to follow back

2393
02:21:23,879 --> 02:21:24,600
Speaker 7: you Bernie.

2394
02:21:25,120 --> 02:21:29,400
Speaker 2: All right, good stuff, Chef anunther botho performance all right.

2395
02:21:29,800 --> 02:21:34,039
Speaker 2: Where closing in on the Paris Olympics, and that means

2396
02:21:34,080 --> 02:21:37,040
Speaker 2: soccer will be back on the international stage. But it

2397
02:21:37,080 --> 02:21:40,280
Speaker 2: doesn't matter whether it's in season, out of season, on

2398
02:21:40,400 --> 02:21:43,480
Speaker 2: the field or off the field. There's always plenty of news.

2399
02:21:44,400 --> 02:21:46,680
Speaker 2: Plenty of news. That's what we bring you Chrispurphfett's World

2400
02:21:46,720 --> 02:21:47,080
Speaker 2: of Soccer.

2401
02:21:48,400 --> 02:21:58,920
Speaker 14: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drum.

2402
02:22:04,280 --> 02:22:07,680
Speaker 15: It's all here in this report from the World of Soccer.

2403
02:22:08,240 --> 02:22:11,720
Speaker 15: The end of domestic seasons rapidly approaches. Here we've got

2404
02:22:11,800 --> 02:22:14,480
Speaker 15: only a few more weeks about probably to the end

2405
02:22:14,480 --> 02:22:17,160
Speaker 15: of the month really to go with the Premier League,

2406
02:22:17,520 --> 02:22:20,560
Speaker 15: and for most of the Big four of Europe, everyone

2407
02:22:20,640 --> 02:22:23,320
Speaker 15: else has kind of punched their tickets. Internazi and Al

2408
02:22:23,440 --> 02:22:28,440
Speaker 15: Milan will handily take the Syria crown. Real Madrid has

2409
02:22:28,560 --> 02:22:33,440
Speaker 15: established total dominance with in the Spanish Aliga, and Germany

2410
02:22:33,640 --> 02:22:37,640
Speaker 15: is apparently going to buyer laver Kusen, finally ending.

2411
02:22:37,560 --> 02:22:41,240
Speaker 2: A long, long long run of.

2412
02:22:41,360 --> 02:22:45,440
Speaker 15: Bayern Munich with Germany's crown. Almost a miraculous season with

2413
02:22:45,560 --> 02:22:49,200
Speaker 15: Leverkusen will dive in and one of these episodes on

2414
02:22:49,440 --> 02:22:53,320
Speaker 15: what has made them tick. But Arsenal and Manchester City

2415
02:22:53,400 --> 02:22:55,960
Speaker 15: look ready to bat back and forth here with the

2416
02:22:56,040 --> 02:22:59,840
Speaker 15: final games. Manchester City still has one more to play

2417
02:23:00,560 --> 02:23:04,200
Speaker 15: versus Arsenal, and I don't think at this point that

2418
02:23:04,360 --> 02:23:08,119
Speaker 15: Liverpool has done themselves many favors to remain in the race.

2419
02:23:08,200 --> 02:23:12,240
Speaker 15: Here they sit about a few points back none. It

2420
02:23:12,240 --> 02:23:14,480
Speaker 15: would take them a few wins and trips ups from

2421
02:23:14,520 --> 02:23:17,240
Speaker 15: both City and Arsenal to get back into this thing.

2422
02:23:17,640 --> 02:23:21,320
Speaker 15: The two two draw against west Ham which saw Mohammed

2423
02:23:21,440 --> 02:23:25,240
Speaker 15: Sala and they're soon to be former boss Jurgen Klop

2424
02:23:25,840 --> 02:23:30,680
Speaker 15: getting into an argument and afterwards Mohammed Sala saying there's

2425
02:23:30,760 --> 02:23:34,280
Speaker 15: going to be fire today if I speak, a kind

2426
02:23:34,280 --> 02:23:37,880
Speaker 15: of embarrassment here for Liverpool as the season has completely

2427
02:23:38,000 --> 02:23:40,640
Speaker 15: faded just a few weeks ago. Looks like they could

2428
02:23:40,720 --> 02:23:43,440
Speaker 15: really have given this one for Klop to go out

2429
02:23:43,520 --> 02:23:45,880
Speaker 15: on top. But it is fitting we bring up managers

2430
02:23:45,920 --> 02:23:48,920
Speaker 15: because managers is where we start. Because yes, besides these

2431
02:23:48,920 --> 02:23:51,520
Speaker 15: teams are the top. There's plenty of places to talk

2432
02:23:51,560 --> 02:23:54,040
Speaker 15: about what it means for some of the managers of

2433
02:23:54,160 --> 02:23:59,880
Speaker 15: these clubs that have really underachieved according to expectations of

2434
02:24:00,040 --> 02:24:03,360
Speaker 15: their supporters and their legacies. And none more than the

2435
02:24:03,480 --> 02:24:07,600
Speaker 15: Red Devils of Manchester United, once the toast of all

2436
02:24:07,680 --> 02:24:12,240
Speaker 15: the world, now struggling for relevance and with the way

2437
02:24:12,400 --> 02:24:14,800
Speaker 15: things are settling in they will be lucky if they

2438
02:24:14,879 --> 02:24:18,640
Speaker 15: even make the Europa Conference League right now, which is

2439
02:24:18,720 --> 02:24:21,680
Speaker 15: the third tier. They'd have to hold on to sixth

2440
02:24:21,760 --> 02:24:24,920
Speaker 15: place to keep that. Or maybe they can make the

2441
02:24:24,959 --> 02:24:27,320
Speaker 15: Europa League if they can catch up with Tottenham Hotspur.

2442
02:24:27,480 --> 02:24:31,200
Speaker 15: I don't really see that being in their cards either way.

2443
02:24:31,560 --> 02:24:35,880
Speaker 15: For second year manager Eric ten Hogg, the fire is on.

2444
02:24:36,720 --> 02:24:41,400
Speaker 15: It's a fascinating situation for Manchester United. It is new

2445
02:24:41,480 --> 02:24:45,200
Speaker 15: ownership in town. Well, okay, kind of, we have to

2446
02:24:45,240 --> 02:24:47,800
Speaker 15: step back a second explain how this pie has been

2447
02:24:47,840 --> 02:24:51,760
Speaker 15: broken up. Now, it's important to remember that Manchester United,

2448
02:24:52,120 --> 02:24:56,520
Speaker 15: the club, the organization is a publicly traded company, and

2449
02:24:56,640 --> 02:25:00,200
Speaker 15: the Glazer family who are also the owner to the

2450
02:25:00,240 --> 02:25:04,200
Speaker 15: Tampa Bay Buccaneers and public enemy number one for nearly

2451
02:25:04,360 --> 02:25:08,480
Speaker 15: every Manchester United supporter in ultra in the world. There

2452
02:25:08,560 --> 02:25:13,400
Speaker 15: have been constant, constant public protests against the Glazier families

2453
02:25:13,400 --> 02:25:17,320
Speaker 15: who but they remain majority shareholders. But what they have

2454
02:25:17,680 --> 02:25:21,280
Speaker 15: done is allowed a British billionaire by the name of

2455
02:25:21,400 --> 02:25:25,600
Speaker 15: Jim Raycliffe, who owns a company named Enios, to purchase

2456
02:25:25,640 --> 02:25:28,840
Speaker 15: twenty five percent of the club and his Enios will

2457
02:25:28,840 --> 02:25:33,440
Speaker 15: be taking control of those football operations. Then that's what

2458
02:25:33,520 --> 02:25:37,840
Speaker 15: they've done. They've come in and tried to take care

2459
02:25:37,920 --> 02:25:40,720
Speaker 15: of things from an ownership versus an ownership group that

2460
02:25:40,800 --> 02:25:43,240
Speaker 15: simply either didn't know what was doing or seemed to

2461
02:25:43,320 --> 02:25:45,640
Speaker 15: really take a hands off approach to a lot of things.

2462
02:25:46,560 --> 02:25:48,760
Speaker 15: And now with this new group in position, it does

2463
02:25:48,879 --> 02:25:51,080
Speaker 15: bring up the question of what will they do with

2464
02:25:51,480 --> 02:25:54,280
Speaker 15: manager Eric ten Hogg. He's been with the club for

2465
02:25:54,400 --> 02:25:57,720
Speaker 15: two years coming from Dutch side iaks before that, and

2466
02:25:58,120 --> 02:26:01,680
Speaker 15: his record in the Premier League is not up to

2467
02:26:01,800 --> 02:26:06,200
Speaker 15: what we would call, let's just say Manchester United standards.

2468
02:26:06,240 --> 02:26:08,920
Speaker 15: On a wind draw loss record, he is sixty three,

2469
02:26:09,200 --> 02:26:12,880
Speaker 15: seventeen and twenty nine, putting his win percentage at just

2470
02:26:12,959 --> 02:26:17,160
Speaker 15: about fifty seven point eight percent. Not exactly the numbers

2471
02:26:17,200 --> 02:26:21,080
Speaker 15: you would expect being the manager of Manchester United, not

2472
02:26:21,360 --> 02:26:25,400
Speaker 15: one that is considered acceptable sometimes. But Rycliffe and any

2473
02:26:25,440 --> 02:26:27,960
Speaker 15: of us have made the point that they believe that

2474
02:26:28,040 --> 02:26:32,000
Speaker 15: in the past ten years the problem hasn't been necessarily managers,

2475
02:26:32,200 --> 02:26:34,920
Speaker 15: insomuch as that they haven't been given the right environment

2476
02:26:35,120 --> 02:26:38,360
Speaker 15: to be successful in A lot of that comes from

2477
02:26:38,440 --> 02:26:41,680
Speaker 15: the sporting structure of the club, which is basically how

2478
02:26:41,720 --> 02:26:46,680
Speaker 15: football operations work over there. Who he answers to, how

2479
02:26:46,800 --> 02:26:52,320
Speaker 15: they conduct their business, their transfers, roster considerations, things of

2480
02:26:52,400 --> 02:26:56,240
Speaker 15: that nature. These are all things that Reycliffe and Anios

2481
02:26:56,360 --> 02:27:00,680
Speaker 15: intend to change here as Manchester United enters this new era.

2482
02:27:00,800 --> 02:27:04,560
Speaker 15: But it's also a question of will Eric ten Hogg

2483
02:27:04,680 --> 02:27:07,840
Speaker 15: then get the first crack at whatever these changes are

2484
02:27:07,959 --> 02:27:10,600
Speaker 15: to prove his worth. I would say yes, I do

2485
02:27:10,800 --> 02:27:13,920
Speaker 15: think that ten Hogg is someone that with another year

2486
02:27:14,040 --> 02:27:17,240
Speaker 15: on his contract, they will at least make these changes

2487
02:27:17,360 --> 02:27:20,520
Speaker 15: over this coming off season. They'll do what they can

2488
02:27:20,640 --> 02:27:23,080
Speaker 15: with the summer transfer window and ten Hogg will be

2489
02:27:23,120 --> 02:27:25,440
Speaker 15: given a chance to show that he does believe that

2490
02:27:25,520 --> 02:27:28,760
Speaker 15: he can be the coach of Manchester United, because who

2491
02:27:28,879 --> 02:27:32,440
Speaker 15: else right now? Manchester United has chewed up even better

2492
02:27:32,560 --> 02:27:35,520
Speaker 15: coaches than Eric ted Hogg Jose Mourinho in the past,

2493
02:27:36,040 --> 02:27:39,280
Speaker 15: and these are managers who have failed for no fault

2494
02:27:39,360 --> 02:27:42,440
Speaker 15: of their own. That's failed because of the resources they

2495
02:27:42,480 --> 02:27:46,960
Speaker 15: were given and the of sporting operations that were in

2496
02:27:47,120 --> 02:27:51,360
Speaker 15: place in Manchester. Simply we're not up to speed. Another

2497
02:27:51,400 --> 02:27:54,920
Speaker 15: club that saw ownership changes and has struggled, probably even

2498
02:27:55,080 --> 02:28:00,320
Speaker 15: more than Manchester United at this point, is Chelsea, once

2499
02:28:00,400 --> 02:28:03,840
Speaker 15: one of the more recent dynasties in Premier League history,

2500
02:28:04,280 --> 02:28:09,000
Speaker 15: who then had to abruptly sell due to their owner

2501
02:28:09,040 --> 02:28:12,920
Speaker 15: Abramovich being of a Russian national and when the Ukraine

2502
02:28:13,080 --> 02:28:16,360
Speaker 15: Russian Shebang started getting off the ground Russia, he was

2503
02:28:16,440 --> 02:28:20,440
Speaker 15: forced to divest from Chelsea because it was a British

2504
02:28:20,560 --> 02:28:24,320
Speaker 15: company in the politics involved therein this has led Chelsea

2505
02:28:24,520 --> 02:28:27,880
Speaker 15: to be under the ownership of American Todd Bailey and

2506
02:28:28,120 --> 02:28:32,400
Speaker 15: his company, clear Lake Capital. It is they spent over

2507
02:28:32,560 --> 02:28:35,600
Speaker 15: a billion pounds about one point twenty five billion US

2508
02:28:36,600 --> 02:28:40,320
Speaker 15: since they're on new players. Since they're twenty twenty two takeover.

2509
02:28:40,920 --> 02:28:45,080
Speaker 15: This is not something new for Chelsea. However, the struggles

2510
02:28:45,120 --> 02:28:48,680
Speaker 15: for Chelsea do continue. They spent a lot on players

2511
02:28:49,280 --> 02:28:51,840
Speaker 15: and for their troubles this year, they were patient. In

2512
02:28:51,879 --> 02:28:54,680
Speaker 15: the first year. It was kind of a little alarming

2513
02:28:54,720 --> 02:28:58,320
Speaker 15: in a few places. But Chelsea is right now going

2514
02:28:58,360 --> 02:29:02,560
Speaker 15: into this weekend, eighth on the table and Chelsea supporters

2515
02:29:02,720 --> 02:29:07,880
Speaker 15: have been desiring the outing of their current manager, Mauricio Pochettino,

2516
02:29:08,400 --> 02:29:12,160
Speaker 15: including to the point of chanting the name of Jose Mourinho.

2517
02:29:12,280 --> 02:29:15,320
Speaker 15: Yes we got another Jose Mourinho reference in here at

2518
02:29:15,400 --> 02:29:18,600
Speaker 15: one of their matches. However, on Thursday, they had a

2519
02:29:18,680 --> 02:29:21,440
Speaker 15: two niel win over Tottenham, which is starting to push

2520
02:29:21,560 --> 02:29:26,040
Speaker 15: them a little bit further up. That said, this job

2521
02:29:26,280 --> 02:29:30,240
Speaker 15: seems to be at risk, and Podgettino is very self

2522
02:29:30,320 --> 02:29:34,600
Speaker 15: aware of that risk. Following the defeat of Tottenham, Puchetino

2523
02:29:34,720 --> 02:29:37,080
Speaker 15: did say that it was difficult to see every week

2524
02:29:37,160 --> 02:29:40,640
Speaker 15: that he is under scrutiny and pushed back against a

2525
02:29:40,720 --> 02:29:43,560
Speaker 15: lot of this and seems very self aware about the

2526
02:29:43,760 --> 02:29:47,000
Speaker 15: situation he is in, and it remains to be seen

2527
02:29:47,120 --> 02:29:51,520
Speaker 15: what exactly Chelsea will do with their manager now. It

2528
02:29:51,720 --> 02:29:54,000
Speaker 15: is worthy to note that he's only been the manager

2529
02:29:54,040 --> 02:29:57,800
Speaker 15: of Chelsea since May. But in throwing back to Abramovich,

2530
02:29:57,920 --> 02:30:01,560
Speaker 15: as things change, more things stay. To say, Abramovich was very,

2531
02:30:02,280 --> 02:30:08,240
Speaker 15: very notorious for changing managers seemingly faster than underwear at Chelsea.

2532
02:30:08,480 --> 02:30:11,720
Speaker 15: And this could just be the same verse, same as

2533
02:30:11,800 --> 02:30:15,000
Speaker 15: the first. And that is the World of Soccer.

2534
02:30:15,879 --> 02:30:18,320
Speaker 2: And of course if you've been listening to the World

2535
02:30:18,400 --> 02:30:22,080
Speaker 2: of Soccer since its inception, you would know that Jose

2536
02:30:22,280 --> 02:30:26,840
Speaker 2: Mourinho is the soccer version of Bill Belichick. Yep, true.

2537
02:30:27,959 --> 02:30:32,520
Speaker 2: Mauricio Polaccino got to do some Walmark on him. I

2538
02:30:32,600 --> 02:30:34,959
Speaker 2: think the last time I was at Sabarro in New York,

2539
02:30:34,959 --> 02:30:37,400
Speaker 2: I order the Mauricio Polaccino with a died cod But

2540
02:30:38,040 --> 02:30:40,959
Speaker 2: I digress, all right, Chris proffets World of Soccer coming up.

2541
02:30:41,560 --> 02:30:46,400
Speaker 2: If you are near a TV Sunday night at eight

2542
02:30:46,560 --> 02:30:52,400
Speaker 2: pm Eastern, five pm Pacific, there's going to be a

2544
02:30:59,200 --> 02:31:01,480
Speaker 2: you what. I'll tell you all about it. Coming up.

2545
02:31:01,879 --> 02:31:03,600
Speaker 2: After I tell you about it, I bet you're going

2546
02:31:03,680 --> 02:31:05,960
Speaker 2: to be tempted to watch. And it has to do

2547
02:31:06,000 --> 02:31:09,040
Speaker 2: with sports, and of course across as the sphere of

2548
02:31:09,120 --> 02:31:11,800
Speaker 2: sports and entertainment. When sports are entertainment, right, all right,

2549
02:31:12,240 --> 02:31:15,160
Speaker 2: enough of my award salad. I'm Bernie Frattle. We're coming

Speaker 2: And before it go any further this evening or this morning,

2557
02:31:33,320 --> 02:31:36,200
Speaker 2: depending on your perspective, I first want to thank my

2558
02:31:36,320 --> 02:31:39,680
Speaker 2: broadcast team back in Los Angeles. They've been with me

2559
02:31:39,760 --> 02:31:44,320
Speaker 2: since eleven pm Pacific time on Saturday night. They would

2560
02:31:44,320 --> 02:31:48,520
Speaker 2: of course be Mark Ramsey, our technical producer, Kevin Weyer

2561
02:31:48,560 --> 02:31:51,840
Speaker 2: at the shift and all the updates, and of course

Speaker 2: executive producer and great job, guys. There's always good stuff

2564
02:32:02,560 --> 02:32:06,320
Speaker 2: on the conversations with respect to the NFL eighteen games

2565
02:32:06,360 --> 02:32:08,960
Speaker 2: and then il portal all that brand new fool what

2567
02:32:13,000 --> 02:32:14,760
Speaker 2: it again next week. And by the way, in the meantime,

2568
02:32:16,160 --> 02:32:20,760
Speaker 2: for what it's worth, it's coming Thursday May ninth, eleven

2569

2573
02:32:33,720 --> 02:32:38,240
Speaker 2: would be my fifteenth Ben Mallards show. Speaking of shows,

2574
02:32:38,760 --> 02:32:42,400
Speaker 2: it's being builled the greatest roast of all time. It's

2575
02:32:42,440 --> 02:32:47,080
Speaker 2: going to feature none other than Yes Tom Brady, and

2576
02:32:47,240 --> 02:32:51,680
Speaker 2: they are touting a star studded panel of celebrities that

2577
02:32:51,840 --> 02:32:54,360
Speaker 2: will of course be taking their best shots, hurling their

2578
02:32:54,400 --> 02:32:58,840
Speaker 2: best insults. It'll be on Netflix Sunday night, eight pm

2579
02:32:58,879 --> 02:33:03,120
Speaker 2: Pacific check, eight pm Eastern excuse me, eight pm Eastern time,

2580
02:33:03,240 --> 02:33:07,720
Speaker 2: five pm Pacific. It's going to be live. You don't

2581
02:33:07,760 --> 02:33:12,080
Speaker 2: see usually, you know. I remember when, gosh, that Justin

2582
02:33:12,120 --> 02:33:18,840
Speaker 2: Bieber roast back in twenty fifteen was epic. Oh my god,

2583
02:33:18,920 --> 02:33:21,760
Speaker 2: I saved it. I watched it once a year for posterity.

2584
02:33:22,640 --> 02:33:25,680
Speaker 2: Now we don't know. We don't know the entire the

2585
02:33:25,959 --> 02:33:29,440
Speaker 2: entire roaster list. We do know a couple of names.

2586
02:33:29,520 --> 02:33:32,600
Speaker 2: Dana White Believe it or not, UFC CEO Dana White

2587
02:33:32,600 --> 02:33:36,280
Speaker 2: says he will be among them. Dana White and Tom

2588
02:33:36,360 --> 02:33:39,720
Speaker 2: Brady have been friends for a long time. Dana White's

2589
02:33:39,720 --> 02:33:41,920
Speaker 2: also a New England native. He's also a diehard fan

2590
02:33:41,959 --> 02:33:45,560
Speaker 2: of the Patriots. So Dana White will be one of

2591
02:33:45,600 --> 02:33:47,360
Speaker 2: the roasters. It will take place at the Key of

2592
02:33:47,480 --> 02:33:52,200
Speaker 2: Forum is Los Angeles. There are some confirmed participants that

2593
02:33:52,280 --> 02:33:54,800
Speaker 2: we do know. These are the ones I'm looking forward

2594
02:33:54,800 --> 02:33:58,240
Speaker 2: to most as former teammates. Randy Moss will be there,

2595
02:33:59,040 --> 02:34:03,040
Speaker 2: Julian Edelman will be there. Rob Gronkowski. How about this

2596
02:34:03,879 --> 02:34:08,160
Speaker 2: Drew Bledsoe? If I only hear one? Am? I? I mean?

2597
02:34:08,480 --> 02:34:12,640
Speaker 2: Has Drew Bledsoe not got hurt in that game versus

2598
02:34:12,720 --> 02:34:16,640
Speaker 2: the Jets? You know we might never have seen Tom

2599
02:34:16,720 --> 02:34:19,320
Speaker 2: Brady a whole hell of a lot on the field. Wait, wait, wait,

2600
02:34:19,400 --> 02:34:23,440
Speaker 2: don't know how about this one? Also, Bill Belichick. So

2601
02:34:23,600 --> 02:34:25,600
Speaker 2: I have a tendency to think the players are going

2602
02:34:25,680 --> 02:34:27,680
Speaker 2: to be every good, if everybody is good, if not

2603
02:34:27,879 --> 02:34:31,960
Speaker 2: better than the entertainers. Randy Moss, Julian Edelman, Robergeran Kosi,

2604
02:34:32,080 --> 02:34:35,000
Speaker 2: Drew Blotsoe, and even Bill Belichick and of course Jeff

2605
02:34:35,080 --> 02:34:39,840
Speaker 2: Ross comedian Jeff Ross, for Kreischer, Tom Segura, Nicky Glazer,

2606
02:34:39,879 --> 02:34:46,400
Speaker 2: Andrew Schultz, Tony Hinchcliff Sam Jay Netflix. Is cary enough

2607
02:34:46,440 --> 02:34:49,720
Speaker 2: for this man? This is going to be, I think,

2608
02:34:50,040 --> 02:34:53,360
Speaker 2: an epic event again. Sunday, May eight, Later the night

2609
02:34:53,600 --> 02:34:57,400
Speaker 2: May eight? Oh wait a minute, yes, wait a minute.

2610
02:34:57,760 --> 02:35:00,520
Speaker 2: Did I screw this up? Is it? I thought it

2611
02:35:00,600 --> 02:35:05,520
Speaker 2: was Sunday night? It is May fifth? It is May fifth.

2612
02:35:05,800 --> 02:35:07,360
Speaker 2: Some of the notes that I'm reading here got this

2613
02:35:07,480 --> 02:35:10,400
Speaker 2: all screwed up. It is Sunday. It's single to mid

2614
02:35:10,440 --> 02:35:12,320
Speaker 2: In case you missed it. Yeah, sinkle to mind always

2615
02:35:13,400 --> 02:35:16,720
Speaker 2: always lands on May fifth. Hell convenient right, May fifth.

2616
02:35:16,760 --> 02:35:19,560
Speaker 2: I'm not losing my mind. Later tonight, May fifth, eight

2617
02:35:19,640 --> 02:35:25,040
Speaker 2: pm Pacific, eight pm Eastern, five pm Pacific. They're originally

2618
02:35:25,040 --> 02:35:27,080
Speaker 2: apparently going to do this back in May twenty twenty two,

2619
02:35:27,120 --> 02:35:30,440
Speaker 2: but it was delayed and now now they're ready to roll.

2620
02:35:30,680 --> 02:35:36,520
Speaker 2: Now they are ready to roll now. Tom Brady has

2621
02:35:37,400 --> 02:35:41,240
Speaker 2: basically said nothing's off limits. Bring it, but be careful

2622
02:35:41,280 --> 02:35:45,520
Speaker 2: what you wish for okay. I mean, I don't know

2623
02:35:45,760 --> 02:35:48,400
Speaker 2: what it would take to hurt his feelings. Probably, I

2624
02:35:48,440 --> 02:35:51,199
Speaker 2: don't know. He's made three hundred and thirty three million

2625
02:35:51,280 --> 02:35:53,200
Speaker 2: dollars in his career, and he's got a net worth

2626
02:35:53,240 --> 02:35:56,080
Speaker 2: of about five hundred and thirty million. And not only

2627
02:35:56,160 --> 02:35:59,840
Speaker 2: has Tom Brady solidified his status of maybe the most

2628
02:36:00,000 --> 02:36:03,520
Speaker 2: accomplished athlete of all time with the Super Bowls maybe

2629
02:36:03,640 --> 02:36:07,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, certainly one of the greatest, he's also

2630
02:36:07,560 --> 02:36:11,480
Speaker 2: a mainstream celebrity. I'm damn near okay, So this ought

2631
02:36:11,520 --> 02:36:14,720
Speaker 2: to be fairly memorable. I'm certain I will. I will

2632
02:36:15,080 --> 02:36:19,880
Speaker 2: sample it Sunday night at five pm Pacific, eight pm Eastern.

2633
02:36:20,640 --> 02:36:23,080
Speaker 2: And again, by the way, I think even Ben Affleck

2634
02:36:23,200 --> 02:36:25,240
Speaker 2: is going to be there too. Some of the names

2635
02:36:25,280 --> 02:36:27,280
Speaker 2: haven't been released yet, so I guess we're probably in

2636
02:36:27,400 --> 02:36:32,040
Speaker 2: for some surprises as well. And look, I have no

2637
02:36:32,160 --> 02:36:34,480
Speaker 2: idea if it's going to be funnier anywhere near as

2638
02:36:34,600 --> 02:36:37,720
Speaker 2: good as the one with Justin Bieber years ago. But

2639
02:36:38,600 --> 02:36:40,200
Speaker 2: that's the thing I want to see it. I want

2640
02:36:40,240 --> 02:36:43,040
Speaker 2: to hear about the water cooler Monday morning, telling me,

2641
02:36:43,360 --> 02:36:45,400
Speaker 2: people telling me what happens, kind of like when Tyson

2642
02:36:45,440 --> 02:36:48,039
Speaker 2: bit the year of Evander Hollyfield. I'm glad I saw

2643
02:36:48,040 --> 02:36:50,640
Speaker 2: it live because I didn't want someone telling me about

2644
02:36:50,680 --> 02:36:53,400
Speaker 2: it on Monday morning. It's gonna do for the Bernie
