We 26 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 2: have got games going on right now in the NCAA tournament, 27 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: some close, some not so close, and we have the 28 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: story of the tournament going on right now in Miami 29 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: of Ohio, one game in. They are the Cinderella of 30 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: this tournament because of what they were able to do 31 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: in Dayton just a couple of nights ago, but an 32 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 2: early deficit. As you heard Isaac Glowancron say, RedHawks erin 33 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: Torres down eleven. Right now, it's the six seeded Tennessee 34 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 2: volunteers in the in their matchup right now in Philadelphia. 35 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Tennessee, really solid squad. Obviously coming out of the 36 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: SEC thought this would be a tough matchup and it 37 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: has been. There in the middle of a three minute 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: scoring drought, trailing by fourteen points with about seven minutes 39 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: to go in the first. 40 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: It got worse for them literally in the thirty second 41 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: handoff that I did to Aaron it was eleven and 42 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 2: now it's up to fourteen. So now the question becomes 43 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: who is Cinderella, and a Cinderella maybe playing right now 44 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 2: and we don't even realize it. It could be right 45 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: under our nose. And right now Alabama and Hofstra are 46 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 2: playing and Alabama and don't laugh, Alabama has an eight 47 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 2: point lead, and you're saying, well, if Hofstra is losing 48 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 2: by eight with eight minutes to go, how could they 49 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 2: be the Cinderella. One of the questions I post to you, guys, 50 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 2: that's not the Cinderella I'm talking about. Can you have 51 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 2: your second leading score arrested on drug charges and not 52 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: be eligible for the tournament in the same week that 53 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 2: you're playing a game? Can that turn you into a Cinderella? 54 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 2: Because Alabama right now is playing without their second best 55 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 2: player because he was arrested on drug charges on Monday 56 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 2: morning in Tuscaloosa. But Alabama going on a run in 57 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 2: the tournament without their second best player, would that characterize 58 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: Alabama as a Cinderella playing without Aiden Holloway. I ask you, 59 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 2: Aaron Torres. 60 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: I don't think you can be a Cinderella just because 61 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: you're without your second best player, Because listen. Kentucky has injuries, 62 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: u NC had an injury. They're certainly not going to 63 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: be Cinderella. Duke has injuries. You could argue Duke's second 64 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: and best player is out right now with an injury. 65 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: So I don't think you can qualify them as a 66 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: Cinderella simply because the best player is out. Let me 67 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: ask you this, how far would they have to go 68 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: in the tournament before you could hypothetically even consider them 69 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: as Cinderella without accounting for why they don't have their 70 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: second best player. 71 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: Good question. It's very difficult against Texas Tech who lost JT. 72 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: Toppin correct for the season. They don't have him, and 73 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: Christian Anderson was dinged up as well, but he was 74 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: actually able to play today when Texas Tech advanced. So 75 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 2: what wouldn't be on Sunday? If Alabama wins that they 76 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 2: would be the Cinderella. However, from that point on, if 77 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: you face the number one seed in Michigan, you're an underdog. 78 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 2: It's a story. If you were to win that game, 79 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 2: you have now upset a number one seed and you 80 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 2: would go to the bottom half of the bracket where 81 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 2: I know Iowa State head injury injuries, are everywhere, but 82 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 2: for Alabama to get to the Elite EID after beating 83 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: a Michigan team, I think it begins at the sweet sixteen. Sure, 84 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: I think that's when it starts. But should they be 85 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 2: banned entirely from Cinderella category because an arrest on drug 86 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: charges is completely different than someone turning their ankle into 87 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 2: practice exactly right, Yeah, so that's what we're trying to decipher. 88 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: Jason Stewart, do you have any thoughts on whether Alabama 89 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: should be considered a Cinderella despite the arrest earlier this week? 90 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 4: I think, purely based on the definition of Cinderella as 91 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: it pertains to the NCAA Tournament, they can't be a 92 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 4: Cinderella only because when I think Cinderella, I think the 93 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 4: Disney version of Cinderella. 94 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 2: Only. 95 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 4: Kids are allowed to watch Cinderella, the animated version on Disney, 96 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 4: So kids should not be privy to the fact that 97 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 4: the guy had two point one pounds. 98 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 2: Just shot. 99 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: Two point two. 100 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: Just shy of what Aaron was a possible face. 101 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: Ten years minimum ten year sentence. 102 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: Okay, maybe I shouldn't be laughing at this, but it 103 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 2: is like, this is the ridiculousness of college basketball. 104 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: Well, and I will tell you I was thinking about this. 105 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: You know, you talked about if they beat Michigan, what 106 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: they would do is pick up the momentum of the weed. 107 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: Isn't that big of a deal? Crowd that maybe would 108 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: not otherwise be invested in the NCAA tournament. That is because, 109 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: as somebody who talks about college basketball, you know, this 110 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 1: time of year, every day, I was critical of Alabama for, 111 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: you know, having yet another legal situation, and the comments 112 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: I would say were probably like eighty twenty Well, it 113 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: was probably like eighty percent other fans saying Alabama basketball 114 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: is completely out of control, ten percent Alabama fans, why 115 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: do you hate our program? And then ten percent you 116 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: total square it's marijuana. Who cares? Now, listen, I'm gonna do. 117 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the disclaimer that we all do in 118 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: this business. I'm not saying I never made mistakes when 119 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: I was younger, twenty twenty one, twenty two years old, 120 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: I feel very confident saying that never in my life 121 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: have I knowingly been in the presence of two point 122 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: one pounds of marijuana. But again, according to a certain 123 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: segment of that population of a population, yeah, I'm a 124 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 1: total square. So that population now all of a sudden, 125 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: they got their bandwagon and maybe it's their Cinderella. 126 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: What's worse playing with the player that played in the 127 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 2: NBA or you know, sign an NBA deal or this, 128 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: Because there's a lot like a lot of these lines 129 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: are now blurred when it comes to athletics. Now, I'm 130 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: just on the surface. I think it's impossible for a 131 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 2: power college football, power four college basketball, Power five school 132 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 2: to be considered a Cinderella. But I'm even a little like, 133 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: I'll waiver it it if it was like a bottom 134 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: Big East school, I'd maybe hold off. Like if it 135 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 2: was like, let's say Providence made the dance and they 136 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: that would be a little bit of a different story. 137 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: It's difficult for me to think that Alabama could be 138 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: a Cinderella, especially on the heels of something we talked 139 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 2: about a little bit ago on Fox Sports Radio and 140 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 2: if you missed it, Aaron and I were and for 141 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 2: Stu gottson Company Live. As we are throwing things on, 142 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 2: here's the thing, the Iowa sam which by the way, 143 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 2: may get a name change. Alabama made the Final Four 144 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, so them going on a 145 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 2: run here wouldn't. However, I don't know how many people 146 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: expected Alabama to beat Hofstra today. I think it was 147 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: a trendy pick for an upset, and I don't know 148 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 2: how many people had Alabama even going far considering what 149 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: happened on Monday morning in Tuscaloosa. So that's why I 150 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 2: raised the question, is Alabama an actual Cinderella if you 151 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 2: lose your player because of the drug situation? 152 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: Well, let's let's turn the phrase a little bit here. 153 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: Let's go from Cinderella to feel good story. If they 154 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: beat Michigan to advance to the Elite eight at that point, 155 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: and let's say they beat a two seat or a 156 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 1: three seat to go to the final four, can they 157 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: be a few Let's say it's that three number ones 158 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: and Alabama who went through Michigan and whatever. Can Michigan 159 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: be the or can Alaba be the feel good story 160 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: of the tournament? 161 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 2: That is an angle that I think is intriguing because 162 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 2: when you don't have Aiden Holloway, these players are the 163 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 2: ones that are penalized, right, So that's that's also like 164 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: why of like these players who want to get to 165 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: the NC double A tournament want to get to a 166 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: final four again, want to win a national championship. I'm 167 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 2: sure they would love to have their second leading scorer 168 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,479 Speaker 2: on their team, so they are playing at a disadvantage. 169 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 2: I don't know if it'll be a rallying cry or 170 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 2: not for them, but you you would have to think 171 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 2: that they would rather have Aiden Holloway than have what's 172 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 2: than not have him in this NC DOUBLEA tournament. So 173 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, it would become a feel good story 174 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 2: in a way that you're, yeah, you're cheering for these 175 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: players who now have less of a chance to achieve 176 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 2: the goal of a final four. 177 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: Sure comment, but I don't know if it'll get us 178 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: a trouble. 179 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 2: Jason Stewarts, you can mull it over. 180 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: Say they they lost more than apparently they may have 181 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: lost more than just their second leading score. Let's put 182 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: it that way. 183 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 2: Okay. 184 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: Can you do with that as you please? 185 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 4: All Right, I've been steaming on something ever since Aaron 186 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 4: said it on the air for the last five minutes, 187 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 4: and I just have one thing to say, okay, And 188 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 4: I don't want to get political. I don't want to 189 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 4: piss anybody off on a Friday afternoon, But if you know, 190 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 4: prisons are filled with people that make poor judgment. Okay, 191 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 4: if something is illegal and you knowingly do something that 192 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 4: is illegal, then that that tells me about your judgment. 193 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 4: So prison time or what have you doesn't matter that 194 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 4: pot has the laws have become more laxed about it. 195 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 4: You chose to do that when you knew it was 196 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 4: illegal at the time. So I just don't whoever has 197 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 4: been given air and a bunch of this stuff on 198 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 4: social media. That's my blanket response to that. I think 199 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 4: it was Corvette guy three twenty six. I think that's 200 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 4: what it probably was. Yeah, probably letting you know, giving 201 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 4: you the business. But also to that point, doesn't that 202 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 4: hurt the current Alabama players that you had a player 203 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 4: who was doing stuff which would then make them a 204 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 4: bit of a Cinderella. Don't you feel scorn when when 205 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 4: of your friends does something that you would never ever 206 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 4: think that they would be capable of doing and you 207 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 4: want to stand by them for But depending on the 208 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 4: level of whatever it is, there are decisions that you 209 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 4: have to make and ultimately, like you may lose a 210 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 4: friend and that friend could have, you know, meant whatever 211 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 4: to in your life. Getting big picture. But with Alabama here, 212 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 4: I don't think. I don't think they're going to I 213 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 4: don't think the NCAA is going to wrap their arms 214 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 4: around the Crimson Tide if. 215 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 2: They make it. Now. It would be interesting if it 216 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 2: was like nineteen ninety seven Final four, three number ones 217 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: and a four seed and the four seed ends up 218 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 2: coming out of the bracket as the national champion like 219 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 2: Arizona did. But I just it's it's tough to think 220 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: that I think that there's there's a soft spot in 221 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 2: my heart for Alabama playing this game when I think 222 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 2: we all actually had the hard nosed edge of what 223 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 2: we thought of the Crimson Tide entering today. Is that 224 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 2: fair enough? Like that just it's easy to think that 225 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 2: there's no reason to cheer for Alabama and that they're 226 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: probably not going to win because of how bad this 227 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 2: week was. Sure, however, there is a reason to feel 228 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 2: some sort of empathy towards the current Alabama players because 229 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 2: of what happened to them. So winning this game against Hofstra, 230 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: which I would think that people use that if you're 231 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 2: going to pick an upset, that's probably the spot that 232 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 2: you're going to pick, or one of the popular spots. 233 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 2: And so Alabama coming through on it. I actually think 234 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 2: it's not a feel good story. It's not a Cinderella, 235 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 2: but there's something good to it that we just can't grasp. 236 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we can't see it, and you're right, and 237 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, and listen. The one thing I will say, 238 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: as somebody's covered many NCAA tournaments, you get a lot 239 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: of media availability, and so we'll see if any quotes 240 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: come out of I had no idea that was Aiden's character, 241 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: and I'm his roommate and I've never seen such a thing. 242 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: And maybe somebody does say something like he let me down, 243 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: you know, I'm a whatever. So if they make a run, 244 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: we will have plenty to find out of if this 245 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: was an isolated incident that no one was aware about, 246 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: or if it was something else. 247 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,599 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody would think Gonzaga is a Cinderella. 248 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,239 Speaker 2: As a number three seed, they're going to have Texas 249 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: tomorrow in the round of thirty two. Gonzaga's been there 250 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: a while. But one of the things that hasn't been 251 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 2: talked about is the changing of the guard in college basketball. 252 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,599 Speaker 2: That's actually going to happen this year. There were minor storylines, 253 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: but ultimately Gonzaga says goodbye to the West Coast Conference. 254 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 2: You're going to be a member of the PAC twelve, 255 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: the new PAC twelve that will reform. And today we 256 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 2: had a Santa Clara teine take Kentucky down to the 257 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 2: wire and was two seconds away from winning that ten 258 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 2: to seven upset and having two West Coast Conference teams 259 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 2: make it to the round of thirty two in a 260 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 2: tournament where we had three West Coast Conference teams make 261 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: the field of sixty eight. Gonzega three seed, Saint Mary's 262 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 2: was a seventh seed, lost less night to Texas A 263 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 2: and M, and Santa Clara was the ten seed. I 264 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: marveled at something over the last twenty four hours, and 265 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 2: it's that Gonzega is so strong of a brand that 266 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 2: they got two teams in the tournament. Sure, in addition 267 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 2: to who they are. When you look at the rest 268 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: of the West Coast Conference in the play, it's not 269 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: different than many other mid major conferences or low major conferences. 270 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: Saint Mary's has had a long run of success. Santa 271 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 2: Clara and what herb Sendek did today and what they 272 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 2: did this season should be commended. But in no other league, Aaron, 273 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: are we looking at for what the West Coast Conference 274 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 2: is as a whole. Are we looking at a league 275 00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 2: saying they could get three schools in the The only 276 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 2: reason we are is because of Gonzaga, And I think 277 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 2: that that should be applauded because we look at Gonzaga 278 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: in a lot of different ways, and they're now going 279 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 2: to become a different team. They were the apple of 280 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: the Big twelves I at one time, right when ret 281 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 2: your mark in the Big twelve, we're trying to put 282 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: together a basketball powerhouse. Isn't necessarily happening with Gonzega, but 283 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: they're doing a pretty good job of it to otherwise. 284 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 2: But Gonzaga was so strong of a brand that if 285 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 2: you were able to beat Gonzaga or compete with Gonzega, 286 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 2: you are considered one of the top thirty teams thirty 287 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 2: five to forty teams in college basketball. And it's not 288 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: that Saint Mary's didn't deserve a bid, and it's not 289 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 2: that Santa Clara didn't deserve a bid. It's the recognition 290 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 2: for Gonzega that no other school in the country has 291 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: the power that they do to actually elevate two other 292 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: schools to make them NCAA Tournament worthy teams. 293 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think you know it's his is the 294 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: Saint Mary's thing happened about seven eight years ago. They 295 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: started kind of this run of every year being in 296 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: the in in the mix, and then Santa Clara the 297 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: last couple of years has really elevated as well. And 298 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: by the way, it's not just them. I was thinking 299 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: about it San Francisco. Todd Golden, who's now the Florida 300 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: head coach, was at San Francisco. They got in that 301 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: large bid about three or four years ago. And so 302 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: one it is the it is the north star that 303 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: you attempt to be or attempt to reach, but in 304 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: the process of getting there, even if you can't quite 305 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: get to the Gonzaga level, it allows you to get 306 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: to a higher level, schedule, better get better games in 307 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: the non con elevate the whole league. So I think 308 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: it's a very interesting point by you in that it 309 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 1: doesn't feel hyperbolic to say that this will probably be 310 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: the last time that the WCC is a three bid league. 311 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: And I'll be curious if if they can, you know, 312 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: especially with Santa Clara kind of emerging the last year 313 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: or two, if they can stay even at the two 314 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: bid status. I don't think so well. I was gonna say, 315 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: is there does Saint Mary's. It won't become the new 316 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 1: Gonzaga because there's only one Gonzaga. But are they good 317 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: enough where if you beat them two out of three 318 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 1: times that they could get in at large and then 319 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: by default you get in as well. Probably not, but 320 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: you never know. 321 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 2: I think that maybe in rare years, but I just 322 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 2: don't think it would be. How we looked at the 323 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 2: MAC this year with Akron and Miami of Ohio, and 324 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 2: look at what Miami of Ohio had to do. You 325 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 2: know me, I've been a Saint Mary's Yes fan all 326 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 2: the way since early February when I went to the 327 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 2: University Credit Union Arena pavilion. I already forgot what it was, 328 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 2: but it was the University Credit Union Arena or Pavilion, 329 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: and they beat USF the night before the Super Bowl. 330 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 2: I loved it. It was magnificent, it was a magnificent atmosphere. 331 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 2: Loved everything about it, and so I followed Saint Mary's 332 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 2: over the last month of the year, and yesterday they 333 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 2: were just completely overmatched by Texas A and M team 334 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 2: that is middle of the road at best in the SEC. 335 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 2: This is who Saint Mary's beat this year in non 336 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 2: conference Saint Thomas, Minnesota, pretty good school, but playing in 337 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 2: the NIT Chattanooga, Ohio, North Texas, Arkansas State, U Seemer said, 338 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 2: Wichita State, Virginia Tech. They lost to Vanderbilt by twenty five, 339 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 2: beat Davidson, lost to Boise State, beat FAU, beat Northern Iowa, 340 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 2: and then they went into conference play where they lost 341 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 2: to Gonzaga on the road by eight and then beat 342 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,680 Speaker 2: them in the final regular season game of the season 343 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 2: in Maraga in Moraga, California. It's home game. 344 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: It's a great point if they go seventeen to one 345 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: in that league but don't have the win over Gonzaga, Like, 346 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: is a win over Virginia Tech and a win over 347 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: Wichita State enough to you know, I know, no North. 348 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 2: Any other school, probably not, That's what I'm saying. But 349 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: I think that just Gonzega being in that league and 350 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 2: being competitive. Yeah, then to answer your question of just 351 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,719 Speaker 2: being competitive is telling you, Okay, we think enough of 352 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,520 Speaker 2: them that they are and that's This isn't a Saint 353 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 2: Mary's conversation. This isn't a WCC conversation or a MECH 354 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 2: conversation or a low major. This is a purely Gonzaga 355 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 2: conversation for how powerful and how meaningful that program has 356 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 2: been in so many different ways and emerging from a 357 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 2: no name. I remember when John Stockton was in the 358 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 2: NBA and we were saying, where is Gonzaga? And so 359 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 2: now over the last twenty five maybe going on thirty 360 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 2: years now, as it was the late nineties that they 361 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: ended up emerging. But to see the power that they 362 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 2: have and how that power is now going to change. 363 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: Curious to see and how it plays out. What is 364 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: the new PAC twelve and how those schools end up 365 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: basically you know, following the in the shadow and maybe 366 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 2: riding the coattails of Gonzega. 367 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: Basketball in that league too. Yeah, yes, no, it's very 368 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: interesting and that would obviously be it'll be interesting because 369 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: Utah State will be part of that league. Utah State 370 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: is playing right now. I will say I think, you 371 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: know Miami of Ohio, people were wondering, you know, is 372 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 1: they're a run in them? Trailing by nineteen with two 373 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: minutes to go. 374 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio had the best sports talk lineup in 375 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 5: the nation. Catch all of our shows at foxsports radio 376 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 5: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app. 377 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: What a sequence. 378 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: Unbelievable, And you know we were in for Stu Gott's 379 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: a Company earlier, and you know, it's just such an 380 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,239 Speaker 1: interesting thing because Kentucky season has been disappointing and I 381 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 1: think there is an element of the fan base that 382 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: kind of just wants the season to be over. But one, 383 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: you don't want to lose to Santa Clara. You're just 384 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: You're Kentucky. You don't want that to happen. But two, 385 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, listen, I know Iowa State won by two 386 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: hundred points today, but their best player, Joshua Jefferson left 387 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: the game. I think it's an ankle. I don't know 388 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: if it's been confirmed yet, but he was seen walking 389 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: around with crutches in a boot. He is not gonna 390 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: play on Sunday. And all of a sudden, you talk 391 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: about Kentucky potentially now having a pathway to the Sweet sixteen, 392 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: and it would have been the same for Santa Clara. 393 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 1: It just can completely change the entire momentum of a season. 394 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: One shot quite literally there. 395 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 2: In airon Up at Aaron Underscore Torris, you can find 396 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 2: me at Dan Byron Fox. I think it's a perfect 397 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 2: opportunity to I don't take a drive down memory lane 398 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 2: a little story time NC DOUBLEA tournament. We had the 399 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 2: buzzer beater with Kentucky. Today, I was at a buzzer 400 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 2: beater that, as time goes on, gets further and further 401 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 2: away from our memory. But Al McGuire had the call 402 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 2: of a Holy mackerel Is James Forrest and Georgia Tech 403 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 2: upset second seed USC in the NCUBAA tournament in nineteen 404 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 2: ninety two, second round play, eliminating, eliminating Harold Minor and 405 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 2: those USC Trojans on a shot with eight tens of 406 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 2: a second left. I was in the Bradley Center that 407 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 2: day in Milwaukee watching that. A great, great NCAA tournament memory. 408 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: I have time this segment, but I want the year 409 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: by year rundown of all the NCAA tournaments because I 410 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: know you went every year for spring break. Yes, I 411 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: know you drove to Knoxville and then got sick and 412 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: couldn't go to games. 413 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 2: Yes, that's true. 414 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 1: So we don't have time because we got to get 415 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,199 Speaker 1: to everybody's but I want to hear it at some point. 416 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 1: I'll be quick on mine. Was scrolling through Instagram the 417 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: other day. They had a great reel of famous coach's debut. 418 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: So you go back to cal Periot, UMass, you go 419 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,719 Speaker 1: back to coach k A million years ago. Tom Izzo 420 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: made his NCAA tournament debut at a little regional in Hartford, Connecticut, 421 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: the Harford Civic Center in nineteen ninety eight. I remembered 422 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: Michigan State being in that regional because I was there 423 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,719 Speaker 1: growing up as a young college basketball fan in Hartford, Connecticut. 424 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: Had zero idea that it was tom Izzo's NCAA tournament debut. 425 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: By the way, fun regional UNC with Vince Carter and 426 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: Antoine Jamison were there. Princeton, remember Prince had about that 427 00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: three year run. They were there. How about Illinois Chicago 428 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: as a nine seed? You talk about three bid leagues. 429 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: The MCC was a three bid league that year. But 430 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,119 Speaker 1: I was at tom Izzo's debut. Also, Eastern Michigan with 431 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 1: Earl Bakens was in that regional. I know I went long. 432 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, that's all right? Who else is long for 433 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 1: the ride here down turny Lane? I will I tell 434 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: you what Dan Jason Stewart. Mine was a year after 435 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 1: yours nineteen ninety three, the famous Chris Weber time out 436 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: game and guess who was a very young twenty twenty 437 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: year old who shouldn't have been gambling. But I had 438 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: fifty dollars that I couldn't afford on Michigan. Michigan was 439 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 1: getting two and a half points. The score when Chris 440 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: Weber called time out was the score seventy three to seventy. 441 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 4: One North Carolina. So not only did Chris Weber cost 442 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 4: themselves a national championship, he cost me fifty bucks. 443 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 2: And I didn't have. 444 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 1: That to spat. 445 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 4: And you've never gambled since you're right, never, never was 446 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 4: in the last what thirty years the Scott van Pelt 447 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 4: imagine that. 448 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 2: I was a glowing Crowdney got a quick attorney. 449 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 3: Memory Christian Latner shot. I was in junior high. I 450 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 3: was in the bar of a Chinese restaurant watching it 451 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 3: on TV when that shot went through. I remember it 452 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 3: to this day. And thanks to this game moment ago, 453 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 3: I learned that Chinese restaurant, which was really good, by 454 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 3: the way, is unfortunately now a Trader Joe's. 455 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 2: Probably at the same amount of parking as they did. Sam. 456 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: You got at tourney memory to wrap us up on 457 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 2: memory Lane, I do, but I feel like we're gonna 458 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,919 Speaker 2: take a little too much time. I guess surface one, Well, 459 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 2: that guess what we'll We'll drive down memory lane a 460 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 2: little bit later on sounds good. You know the funny 461 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 2: story about the Dukentucky game. Ohio State played Michigan the 462 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 2: next day, and that's all that I was focused on. Like, 463 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 2: I remember watching the game, but it was more about 464 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 2: Ohio State having the opportunity to go to the Final Four, 465 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 2: which they didn't, losing to the Fab Five in overtime. 466 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 2: But I remember watching that game and then that being 467 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: the next day. 468 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio had the best sports talk lineup in 469 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 5: the nation.

However, for us on the 506 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 2: West coast, price is right is preempted because of the tournament, 507 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 2: so they just air it after the games are done 508 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 2: and then we'll slide into the schedule coming up in 509 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 2: fifty seven minutes of the evening slate of games in 510 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: the NCAA Tournament. 511 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still on.

Maybe someone's alma mater, Maybe they just want 521 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: to go have a Friday night out with the games 522 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 2: on and enjoy the game. That's totally fine. This there's 523 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 2: something that's happening that is about to change your viewing 524 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 2: experience when you go to when you go to an establishment, 525 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:40,239 Speaker 2: Direct TV, since Sunday Ticket changed to YouTube, was in 526 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 2: the business of still providing the NFL Sunday Ticket through 527 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 2: Direct TV antennas boxes. However, you will to those dishes, 528 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,159 Speaker 2: through those companies, to those bars. You could get the 529 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 2: NFL Sunday Ticket games for the last two seasons, even 530 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 2: if you didn't have YouTube TV. You had to get 531 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 2: a specific special account for these establishments, but that would 532 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 2: then allow you to air all of the games on 533 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 2: all of the different TVs. So like if you're at home, 534 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 2: you may have a Genie, you may have DirecTV, and 535 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 2: you may have boxes in different rooms, but when you're 536 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 2: at a sports bar, you don't have that luxury, and 537 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 2: DirecTV is not going to have you just pay for 538 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 2: one subscription. If you've got forty TVs throughout the establishment, 539 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 2: you need to have a business account. And for so 540 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 2: many years it was DirecTV having not only the NFL package, 541 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 2: they've got NBA League Pass, they've got Major League Baseball. 542 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 2: That is now going by the wayside as a report 543 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 2: from Sportco says that the NFL Sunday Ticket will no 544 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: longer be appearing on through DirecTV at those establishments. Doesn't 545 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 2: affect someone like Jason Stewart as YouTube TV and as 546 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: the Sunday ticket at home, he can watch it at home. 547 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 2: But what that means is every bar or restaurant that 548 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 2: carried the Sunday ticket through DirectTV will now have to 549 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 2: somehow transition to ever pass or figure out a way 550 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 2: to provide all of the games to each establishment. Okay, 551 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 2: and that is a that's I think it's a pretty 552 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 2: big deal because when you go to a spot like 553 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 2: across the street, the wing spot here on an NFL 554 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 2: Sunday jerseys everywhere, people everywhere, I know, just an our 555 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 2: case here at Fox Sports Radio. Not to get into 556 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 2: the business, but we have a business account here because 557 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 2: we have TV's in this studio, TV's in Sam and 558 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: Jason Studio, TV's in Isaac Studio, TVs for the editors. 559 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 2: We have multiple multiple TVs and we are a business account. 560 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 2: It's actually something we have Fox Sports Radio are going 561 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 2: to have to somehow transition to. But this then opens 562 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: up my sort of conversation on it, like when you 563 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 2: have a sports bar, what do you need in the 564 00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: sports bar? What does they must have in a sports bar? 565 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,959 Speaker 2: Because My biggest need has been all the games. And 566 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 2: I don't think that you don't have to have all 567 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 2: of the games on. You need to have access to 568 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 2: all of the games, and I think that there's a 569 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 2: responsibility with that. And I am curious now to see 570 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 2: on how much of a change this is gonna be 571 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 2: come September when the NFL Sunday ticket is not able 572 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 2: to be provided on a service that's been provided for 573 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: how many decades that these places have had to use. 574 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: Listen, I think it does speak to I'm sure you guys, 575 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: you whenever you're you're here, Carrie Rhodes like, it's so 576 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: exhausting being a sports fan right now with the number 577 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: of things that you need to just watch the games 578 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: that you want to watch. And Isaac, I see you 579 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: shaking your head. I agree, like, And you know, I 580 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: say this to somebody who I host on Saturday nights 581 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: and it's like, what was it one of the playoff 582 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: games this year was on either Amazon Prime? I know 583 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: Peacock had that Chiefs Dolphins game a few years ago 584 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: on a Saturday night. It's just like, it's just so 585 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: just hearing you explain that made me tired, and not 586 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: because it wasn't a good explanation just because I'm like, 587 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: the amount of work to just watch the things we 588 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: want to watch is so ridiculous. I know we want 589 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: to transition to conversation as sports bars and all that, 590 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: but it's just it's unbelievable. 591 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: Jason Stewart's the show's executive producer. 592 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 4: If you read into this like Sportico account of this, 593 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 4: that means that every single sports bar, regardless of how 594 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 4: big they are, needs to come up with an infrastructure 595 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 4: with a high speed internet to support like say twenty 596 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 4: h thirty TVs individually streaming different games. Like how many 597 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 4: issues do you think will come up with that? None 598 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 4: a little bit smooth. When you fill a bunch of 599 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 4: people into a place, the Wi Fi is hindered. So 600 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 4: it's like they have to come up with this infrastructure 601 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 4: now to handle all that. 602 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 2: And how many I my biggest gripe there is a 603 00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 2: local chain in southern California that only has it. Bothers 604 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 2: me so much because they can get away with it. 605 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 2: Sure you know why they could get away with it 606 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: because when guys are done with work or Famili's out, 607 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 2: they want to see the Dodger game. So guess what 608 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 2: the Dodgers are on the cable provider, or they want 609 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 2: to see the Laker game, or they want to see 610 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 2: the Kings game, whatever local thing that they do, they 611 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 2: can get away with it because it's a local broadcast. 612 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: That's the establishments I think need to have all of 613 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 2: the options. Sure, if I go to a place in 614 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 2: a popular wing place and say, hey, I want to 615 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: watch and now luckily with the NCAA tournament, we don't 616 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 2: have it, but I'll just use an NFL game. Hey, 617 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 2: I want to watch, you know, Titans Jaguars. It's not 618 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 2: on local TV. You know, there are obviously some that 619 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 2: don't have it, and everybody produced the hey we've got 620 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 2: Sunday ticket, come here, and it was a big boost 621 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 2: for them. I think all establishments should like. I think 622 00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:00,479 Speaker 2: that's just a price for your customer and consumer to 623 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 2: have those sort of options. And I get so mad 624 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 2: because on nights at the Lakers, the rare nights that 625 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 2: the Dodgers aren't playing in the summer, there's just nothing 626 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 2: on TV of any relevance and no one's paying any 627 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 2: attention to it. But I care. So then you got 628 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 2: to ask a waitress or a waiter and say, can 629 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 2: you get that TV above that booth to put it 630 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 2: on ESPN two because there's a game that I want 631 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 2: to watch. The guy who knows how to use the 632 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: equipment is not working that night. So then the manager 633 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 2: comes in has no idea. You see the other TV's 634 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: being changed. No one knows the number that ESPN. So 635 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 2: this is it. So now figure out what this is 636 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: gonna be like with this whole new infrastructure, Like this 637 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 2: is gonna be so annoying. And I know it's technology, 638 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: and I know that it was just a matter of time, 639 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 2: but now to have to deal with this, I'm curious 640 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,959 Speaker 2: what's gonna happen with League Pass, which is you know, 641 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: I mean, our team's gonna are places gonna be keeping 642 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: Sunday they're their directvs. Because for the NBA League Pass 643 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 2: probably not huh. 644 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: By the way, I had a very similar experience with 645 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: what you just referenced two nights ago. It was the 646 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: night Miami of Ohio was playing SMU and there's one 647 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: of those grocery stores that has like a bar attached 648 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:16,919 Speaker 1: to it, and you know, it's like it's light, it's 649 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: light snacks, light food, light beverages, but you know. I 650 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: knew I was gonna be working a lot these next 651 00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: few days, and so I told my wife, I guess 652 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: it would have been Wednesday night. I said, Oh, let's 653 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 1: just go walk across the street, let's get a drink, 654 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: let's chill out. But it was the Miami of Ohio 655 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: SMU game, and I was like, well, I want to 656 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: watch it, and so I got the lazy, angry bartender 657 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: that didn't want to change the channel. I was like, yeah, 658 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: there's there's a game on a True TV. Do you 659 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 1: think you can help me? Oh, we don't get that. 660 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,919 Speaker 1: I'm like, you get True TV. You just don't think 661 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: you get True TV because nobody has ever asked for 662 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: True TV. I go on one hundred percent and I 663 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 1: actually thankfully they had the same cable package that I did. 664 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: I go, yeah, maybe just try like in the one 665 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: hundred and twelve range. And then he come, oh, I 666 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: guess we get it. I'm like, yeah, you get it. 667 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 1: But so I, especially being a college hoops guy in LA, 668 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: college football guy in LA, like you said, if it's 669 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,720 Speaker 1: not Lakers, if it's not Dodgers, nobody really cares that much. 670 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: So I'm the guy that's like oh, Saint Mary, Santa 671 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:15,240 Speaker 1: Clarazon tonight, let's get that on a TV on ESPNU 672 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: and people get mad at me quite a bit. 673 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 2: So listen, I'll name names here. I love I love 674 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 2: Buffalo Wild Wings. Okay, I was gonna say, but you 675 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,240 Speaker 2: want to know why I also love Buffalo Wild Wings 676 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 2: is because if there's a game on, yes, I know 677 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 2: I can go there and it's going to be available, yes, 678 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 2: And so I can find a different place. If I 679 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,320 Speaker 2: wanted different wings, or if I wanted a different sandwich, 680 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,879 Speaker 2: I can find those the other night. But my main, 681 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 2: my number one priority. And that's why I'm asking if 682 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 2: you're listening as well, when you're going out, is it food? 683 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 2: Is it the drinks? Is it the atmosphere? Is at 684 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 2: the games? What is most important to you? Because to me, 685 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 2: it's all about the game. Jason and either we live 686 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 2: in the same area, we'll go to Buffalo Wild Wings 687 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 2: and we know that if we go there, there will 688 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 2: be a game on that we are probably talking about 689 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 2: the next day, so we don't have to miss out 690 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 2: on it, and that to me is so important. And 691 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: so now, if you have been a bar and you've 692 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 2: had the Sunday ticket, for so long. You're gonna have 693 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 2: to figure out a way to make this work. And 694 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 2: there are bars of specific teams. We all know that 695 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 2: Packer bars here, Vikings bar there, Chiefs bar here. They're 696 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 2: all gonna have to adjust one way or another. This 697 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 2: is a huge, huge deal that I don't think people 698 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: necessarily care about, but affect a lot more people than 699 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: you would realize. 700 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 1: Well, you say you don't care until you can't get 701 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: the game that you want, and that's you know, it's 702 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: funny you mentioned the Buffalo wil Wings thing because I 703 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 1: give them credit like they are. That's part of the 704 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: brand is like, whatever game you want, if it is 705 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: being televised, we will find it for you. And I 706 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: think I've told this before, but you know, my father 707 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: in law is you know, he's from Central America. He 708 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: loves soccer and these random soccer games and he's like, no, 709 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 1: it's on TV, we gotta find it. And I give credit. 710 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 1: Never had an issue at Buffalo waw Wings. If it's 711 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: on TV, if it's being broadcast, they find it. And 712 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: it might not be on the main TV, but they 713 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 1: put it on. And that's that's the that's one of 714 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 1: their selling is that most important for you just having 715 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,800 Speaker 1: the game. Yes, oh for me, yeah, I would change restaurant. 716 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: I change restaurants if they don't have the game. Yeah, 717 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: like that's the reason. 718 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 2: Not because I'm like, god, I want to eat you know, 719 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 2: garlic Palmers on wings tonight, like I would have known 720 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 2: that you get wings at any other place. It's having 721 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 2: the game that's the most important. 722 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: I will tell you. 723 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 2: I let me put it this way. 724 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: Unless you're Ruth Chris, if you are anything below five 725 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: star dining, if you have a bar area with a TV, 726 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: I actually believe it should be obligation to be aware 727 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: of what is going on in sports and appease your audience. 728 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: Like you said, there's nothing more annoying than going into 729 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: like a second tier place that you know the food 730 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 1: isn't going to be amazing, but you just kind of 731 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: want to go for the ambiance to rely, have a drink, 732 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: do whatever, and then, like you said, I'm getting a 733 00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: twenty five year old episode of Friends on at seven 734 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: pm when there's clearly a game that should be on 735 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 1: that TV. I just I think it should be the 736 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: way that you, you know, you open a door for 737 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 1: Grandma when you show up at a bar, get whatever 738 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: the biggest game is on in that moment. 739 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 2: Sorry, I ran over. I will also add this, that's 740 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: all right. I the Amazon games were also via direct TV. Okay, 741 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 2: so if you didn't have Amazon Prime, you could at 742 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 2: a business establishment, you still would get Thursday Night Football. 743 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 2: And there's like there's a difference just because we're talking 744 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: restaurants here. There's a different feeling when a restaurant goes 745 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 2: out of business because corporate shuts it down, as opposed 746 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: to someone like just being like, you know what, we're 747 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 2: done after forty years, we're walking away. There's more of 748 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:59,760 Speaker 2: like a a sad finality, you know, of the family 749 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 2: walking away, as opposed to this is a corporate decision. 750 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna fight back. You know, there's maybe there's still 751 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 2: hope we can we can change the system. This isn't 752 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 2: YouTube saying uhh, we're not doing this anymore. This is 753 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 2: direct TV, Jase, if I'm correct in reading this, this 754 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: is direct TV saying like we are getting out of 755 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 2: this business for us or this portion of it, which 756 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 2: changes everything because we relied on DirecTV and the sports 757 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 2: bars and establishments relied on DirecTV so much. Yeah, so 758 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 2: there's good there's gonna be no change, and it's it's 759 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 2: ever pass here. That's the one that's gonna be the 760 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 2: ones that are gonna have to then deal with it. 761 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 2: But it's Direct TV. If DirecTV said, like, we'll do 762 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,399 Speaker 2: this in twenty twenty nine, then we'd have a little 763 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,439 Speaker 2: bit of leeway. But them just cutting it off now 764 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 2: what feels like cold turkey is a tough pill to swallow. 765 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 4: So I just have to think that there's like this, 766 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 4: this tradition that has been established for the last what 767 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 4: twenty five years, however long the Sunday ticket has existed. 768 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 4: It was the coolest thing when it came out, and 769 00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 4: it had a great run. And I just have to believe, 770 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 4: and we've mentioned a couple of times on the show 771 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 4: today that when us living in LA maybe gives us 772 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 4: a more us more sheltered look at life because we 773 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 4: have so many options. But I just have to believe 774 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 4: that there are many corners of this country where it's 775 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,720 Speaker 4: a tradition for somebody to walk down to the corner 776 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:18,359 Speaker 4: bar and watch their football games, and that corner bar 777 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,439 Speaker 4: has had Direct TV and an arrangement, and now they're 778 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 4: going to have to completely do another undertaking with the 779 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 4: costs involved. I'm guessing there's going to be bars that 780 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 4: are mean going to be like, I'm sorry, we just 781 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 4: can't do it, and that saddens me. 782 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 2: I think there will be bars that will willingly and 783 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 2: happily do this, maybe not happily, but are willing to 784 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 2: do it, and we'll be ahead of the game. I'm 785 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 2: just wondering what happens a month out outside the start 786 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 2: of the season, and if you can switch it and 787 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 2: change it like that, because then I think that there 788 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:51,960 Speaker 2: are people that are going to be caught up and 789 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 2: being like, all right, we're not going to do that 790 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 2: because we didn't realize that this change was happening, and 791 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,440 Speaker 2: they'll just throw their hands up and leave it be. 792 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:04,240 Speaker 2: But to have a few months in advance at least 793 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 2: to be able to change this certainly helps. I just 794 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 2: am curious if everybody is going to know about it. 795 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. No, And to the opposite of the point that 796 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 1: Jay stew just made about the bar owner, I just 797 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: feel bad, like I said, for the bar consumer. And 798 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 1: you know, just the number of different things to just 799 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: watch your team. I mean, you know, I'll I give 800 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: you an example as a Ukon fan, it was like 801 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 1: there were games on Peacock, there were games on Fox, 802 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:33,799 Speaker 1: there was games on ESPN plus maybe I can't remember, 803 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 1: but it's so much work and it's like, you know, 804 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: Jay Stu was talking about the bar owner that's got 805 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 1: to change the whole system, But what about the bar 806 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 1: patron that knew that they could count on that bar 807 00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: that now is like, I how do I watch football? 808 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 2: Was it? We're Big ten? Iowa Sam and I are 809 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 2: Big ten guys. Sure, it's the same dilemma. And I 810 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 2: blame the Big ten for as much as for as much. 811 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 2: And I'm sitting here talking we're on Fox Sports Radio. 812 00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 2: But the Big Ten's different deals with Fox, with CBS 813 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 2: and with NBC don't make it the easiest watch. And 814 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 2: while that ESPN SEC connection may seem like a bit 815 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 2: of a monopoly and ESPN Mate, I do think they 816 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 2: lean towards the SEC and their investment in it. It's 817 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 2: a lot easier for their people to watch the product 818 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 2: of their teams as opposed to someone of the Big ten. 819 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 2: That's that's moving here, there and everywhere. 820 00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 1: I went on this rant. I forget if it was 821 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: the NBA, or if it was the Big East or 822 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 1: the Big ten or whatever. But at some point somebody 823 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 1: has to take a few less dollars and look out 824 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: for the fan, and maybe it just never happens. But 825 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,839 Speaker 1: it's like it's I think it was the Big East, 826 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 1: cause it's like. 827 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 2: It was. 828 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 1: So they have NBC Peacock and it's mostly Peacock, it's Fox, 829 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: and then it's Turner. But how about this, Dan Byer. 830 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 1: It's not always the same Turner network. So sometimes it 831 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: is true to you. Sometimes it is TNT and it's like, 832 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: you know, there's three different it's it's Turner bingo where 833 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: you're just rolling the dice and I guess today we're 834 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:12,280 Speaker 1: on TNT okay cool, and tomorrow we're on coming after 835 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, impractical Jokers on True TV. And it's just 836 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 1: like I'm sad, like I'm an old man, but it's 837 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: just it's too much. 838 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 2: It's gonna change. But I want games first. I don't 839 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 2: care what the food tastes like. I mean, Jason and 840 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,320 Speaker 2: I went to eat during the Super Bowl week in 841 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 2: San Francisco. You know that place didn't have satellite, right 842 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 2: that they couldn't have. They had two hockey games up 843 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: and only one of them was the Sharks. So it 844 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 2: was like, so, I don't know they that the Sharks 845 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 2: game obviously for the locals, but there was a different 846 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,879 Speaker 2: game on as well, and I'm like, well, well maybe 847 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,719 Speaker 2: they do. Maybe they had the hockey package, now that 848 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:49,240 Speaker 2: I think of it, if they have two different hockey 849 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 2: games up, maybe they did have. 850 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 4: What is that called? Is that the the what's a 851 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 4: catchy hockey center ice. 852 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 2: Or center ice? 853 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 4: That's not very catchy. I will say this about what 854 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 4: I do need. Not only do I need a great 855 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 4: vantage point, so I need a place that I know 856 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 4: has a great vantage point of the games, but I 857 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 4: need that waiter or waitress to be on point with 858 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 4: the refills. If I'm not drinking beer, then I just 859 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 4: want my unlimited refills of either iced tea or coke 860 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 4: or whatever and keep it coming. That's a that's a 861 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 4: big thing for me. 862 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 2: I'll tell you where I get nervous is if I 863 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 2: ask to change a game that the person that doesn't 864 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,280 Speaker 2: necessarily know how to do it is going to change 865 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 2: the game of a game that's going on, And then 866 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,320 Speaker 2: you hear the people watching that game. 867 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: Wha, what what? 868 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 2: Whatever? 869 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 4: You know? 870 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,239 Speaker 2: And it's all because I wanted to watch something on 871 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,719 Speaker 2: Channel six ten, like that's what it was like, the 872 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 2: Big ten game on the Big ten network. I needed 873 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 2: them to change it, and people are because I don't 874 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 2: have the trust and the person who is operating the 875 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 2: remote control. 876 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 1: By the way, now that we talk about it, I 877 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 1: just realized I just had an incident very related to 878 00:44:55,719 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 1: this yesterday. So somehow the topic. Oh, I literally, so 879 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: you and I filled in for Coffino and Rich yesterday 880 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: and I mentioned my wife. I said, oh, you know, 881 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, Fox was nice enough to get us Buffalo 882 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 1: Wow wings. And my wife goes, oh, I haven't had 883 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: Buffalo Wow Wings in a while. And I said, why 884 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: don't you meet me down after work tomorrow. I'm doing 885 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,800 Speaker 1: Cavino and Rich. We'll go over and watch the games. 886 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,960 Speaker 1: She goes, oh, you could just pick some. You can 887 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 1: just pick up some Buffalo Wow wings. I'm like, no, 888 00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: the whole point is to eat the wings while watching 889 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 1: the games. 890 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 2: I don't. 891 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 1: I can eat wings at my house seven days a week. 892 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: There's only two. There's only one Friday a year that 893 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,759 Speaker 1: I can watch four screens of college basketball. I was like, 894 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: talk about missing the plotline, sweetheart, I'm sorry. 895 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,919 Speaker 2: You've turned into door dash. That's what you have. Yeah, yeah, wife, Yeah, 896 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 2: DoorDash for your wife.

And 898 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,320 Speaker 2: we've had this format now for probably at least a decade. 899 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 2: But remember when we couldn't watch all the games? I 900 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 2: saw a tweet earlier today somebody said there was a 901 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 2: time where you were at the mercy of what your 902 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:04,760 Speaker 2: local CBSF wanted to show via games. And I remember 903 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 2: I've I've gone to bars when the local game wasn't 904 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 2: being shown and watched nineteen ninety nine, Ohio State was 905 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,799 Speaker 2: playing Auburn in the regional semi finals and was not 906 00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,360 Speaker 2: on locally in the Sweet sixteen, and I had to 907 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 2: go to an establishment and end up finding let me. 908 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,399 Speaker 1: Put a ball on that. Nothing more annoying than when 909 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: they would stay on the game that was clearly finished, 910 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 1: with another good one coming down to the wire for 911 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,399 Speaker 1: like four minutes too long, Like what are we doing? 912 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 1: This game's over?
