9
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: a documentary on Derek Jeter. I don't know when that

10
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: documentary airs. It's called Captain. Do you have a a

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: date with that? A release date on the Derek Jeter documentary?

12
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: And is that with the Mothership? I know that Derek

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: Jeters involved with that. Now, there's certain documentaries where you go, okay,

14
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: that's an interesting topic subject with Derek Jeter. I don't

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: know how salacious this is going to be, like what

16
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: don't what don't we know about Derek Jeter when it

17
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: comes to a documentary. I mean, it might just be

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: let's open up the Yankee scrapbook, take a stroll down

19
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: memory lane and revisit all those great moments and big

20
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: hits that he had World series titles, diving into the

21
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,960
Speaker 1: stands and coming out with a bloodied face. Yeah, Paul,

22
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 1: it's a multi part documentary. He didn't say how many parts,

23
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:18,839
Speaker 1: but multipart July to ESPN, ESPN plus. Wait, what would

24
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: be the huge thing he overcame that we maybe we

25
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: don't know about it, playing with Alex Rodriguez. Maybe that's

26
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: the hardest thing for him. I'm trying to think unless

27
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: you know something in his childhood. But I was just

28
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: kind of surprised that with a lot of the topics

29
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: that are featured on documentaries, that you know that there's

30
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: something attached to it, there's a darker side to it.

31
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: He wants to give his side of the story, but

32
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if I would say, wow, can't. Let's say,

33
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: you're not a Yankee fan. Are you interested in Derek

34
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: Jeter Derek Jeeza and if you're a fan you know

35
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: everything about him? Yes? Yeah, Like what is that one

36
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: moment that you're like, oh, man, I can't wait to

37
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: see the behind the scenes of what really happened here?

38
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: I said a rod coming over. I mean that's yes. Yes.

39
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: When Jeter overcame that season where he hit only two

40
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: ninety two, that season when he only dated two swimsuit models. Right,

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: how did he get through a career? Low? They actually

42
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: take you inside how more much more severe the cheek

43
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: injury was when he dove into the crowd. You know

44
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: that was actually a lot worse than people thought. It was.

45
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: Get almost stitches there. He could have lost his life.

46
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: And I'm not making fun of Jeter. It's the coverage

47
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: of Jeter, and he had an unbelievable career. But I

48
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: don't know that unless you're just saying to Yankee fans, hey,

49
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 1: here you go, just just watch. You know what I

50
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 1: loved about, you know, the Last Dance is there was

51
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: drama with Jordan and Jordan commenting you know nowadays about

52
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: what happened and the feud that still goes on with

53
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: Isaiah Thomas and that he manufactured these rivalries. Yes, Marv,

54
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, do we talk about a Mariah

55
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 1: Carey still won the ninety six World Series even after

56
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: that tough breakup. Yeah, Like that's probably the most interesting

57
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 1: part about him. That we didn't really delve into that part.

58
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: But if they get the women that he dated to

59
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: talk about it, he had twelve part documentary. Yes, it'd

60
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: be the Last Dances, Yeah, it's like, right, Brady's as

61
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: all of his Super Bowl rings. Yeah, yeah, it is

62
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: is just a girlfriend's. Yeah. Well this season when I

63
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: was dating you know, Jordana Brewster, I actually wore twenty. Yeah. Yeah,

64
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: I went in a swamp when Scarlett and Joe Hanson

65
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 1: left me. Yes, Todd best and worst thing that were

66
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: in the gift baskets. I'd be interested to what do

67
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: they find flattering him? What not so much that they

68
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: he put that in there? Now, that would be if

69
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: they address that. Okay, I'd be interested to know if

70
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: if Jeets actually had a gift basket that he would

71
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: give to his uh the women he dated and an

72
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: autograph baseball Uh yes, pably like Michael Jordan's. They talked

73
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: about gambling and in Jeters will be like he once

74
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: went to Vegas and considered putting twenty on red. He

75
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 1: thought better of it. No, he would put it on

76
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: two his number, Derek JEETU just one Oyeters, thank you. Yeah,

77
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: I'm waiting for what the topics are with Jeets and

78
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: it's and it's multi multi part documentary. That's a new

79
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: thing after what the Jordan documentary. Okay in July, so

80
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: what all Star break, Yeah, dominate the news cycle? Will

81
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: Derek Jeter dominate the news cycle? Thank god for Jordan

82
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: during pandemic. You know that they moved that up and

83
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: all of a sudden we had things to talk about.

84
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: Thank you, Mike. We appreciate that. Gave us some great

85
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: programming all those years. Let's see, I saw this. The

86
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: Irons and Wedges Tiger Woods used to complete the Tigers

87
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 1: Slam back in two thousand, two thousand and one sold

88
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: at an auction, and the bidding, to say the least,

89
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: exceeded expectations. So they started with an opening bit of

90
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,599
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollars on March twenty third, the bidding

91
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: Saturday night ended up at five million, one hundred and

92
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: fifty six thousand dollars. Now, he used these clubs for

93
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: all four of the majors, the Tigers Slam, the US Open,

94
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: then the Open Championship, PGA, and then the two thousand

95
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: one Masters. Then he switched to a new set of clubs.

96
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,679
Speaker 1: After the Masters. He gave these clubs to a couple

97
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: of guys who worked for titles, and then those guys

98
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: sold it, and I think they had it until twenty ten,

99
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: and they sold for around fifty thousand dollars, and then

100
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: whoever bought it then just put it up. And let's see,

101
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: first time the clubs were sold was twenty ten. A

102
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 1: private equity investor paid fifty seven thousand dollars for that group.

103
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: That's almost ten times five million dollars. I know one

104
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: of the guys who worked at titlist, Steve Motta, but man,

105
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 1: that's a pretty good investment. They had a polygraph test

106
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 1: a copy of Golf Week magazine article which detailed the

107
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: exact specs of Tiger's clubs used to win the PGA Championship.

108
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:56,039
Speaker 1: The article perfectly matches the description of the clubs, including

109
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: a fifty eight degree wedge being bent to fifty six degree.

110
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: Prior to this, the most expensive piece of golf memorabilia

111
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: ever sold. It sold for six hundred and eighty thousand dollars.

112
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: It sold in twenty thirteen. Yes, pauling the plaid pants

113
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: that Jack Nicholas wore to win the eighty six Masters, No,

114
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: I would pay that. I remember asking Jack Nicholas about

115
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: the putter, because you know, he makes that putt and

116
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: he holds it up and he said that he had

117
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: it in the garage and he didn't know where it was.

118
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: I got. I don't know where it is. Horton Smith's

119
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: green jacket from the First Masters had the record for

120
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: the most expensive piece of golf memorabilia. It was sold

121
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen for six hundred and eighty two thousand dollars. Yeah, Paul,

122
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: there are some I wouldn't call them reports, but scuttlebut

123
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: out there that Tiger Woods four Major iron set is

124
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: not the actual iron set. People have speculated, not reported,

125
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: that Tiger would never just give those back to some people,

126
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 1: and that he still has the ogs. Again scuttle butt.

127
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: And we actually reached out to Tiger's agent, which I'm

128
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: sure we'll get a no. Maybe we'll get Tiger, Yes,

129
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure, but we asked him, can you confirm that

130
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: the irons that we're five million are the ones from

131
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: the four mats. My reputation precedes me. Because I was

132
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: having a drink with some some guys and they said, uh,

133
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: I'm assuming you'll have Tiger on this week, and I go, uh,

134
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: not Tiger Woods. But you know, maybe there's another Tiger

135
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: out there, maybe somebody from the Detroit Tigers. I'll have on,

136
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: but I'd probably have a better chance getting an actual

137
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: Tiger on on the show than Tiger Woods. But they

138
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 1: were like, assuming you'll have Tiger on the show? I said,

139
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: well I would, but where we won't be having Tiger Woods. Yeah,

140
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: he doesn't do that stuff, not too much? Yeah, Pa,

141
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: do your relatives do that too? Give you ideas for

142
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: the show? I guess my brother in law goes, did

143
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 1: you guys hear what's going on with the Lakers? You

144
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: guys should have Lebron on? Have you thought about having Lebron?

145
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: And I'm like, and I'm sitting there with my fork

146
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: and my hand on the USFL makes history with a

147
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: special opening night Birmingham Stallions faced the New Jersey General's

148
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: UNSFL kicks off Saturday, seven thirty Eastern on NBC and

149
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: Peacock Dave in Arkansas, Hi, Dave, what's on your mind today?

150
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: They come on me Pittsburgh, Dave, And I've got a question,

151
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: all right, And maybe one of these irons made one

152
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: of these shots. I want to know if you think

153
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: are the golf announcers are they overselling the difficulty of shots?

154
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: Or are the players that good? There's so many times

155
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: you'll hear, you know, Johnny Miller or or one of them.

156
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 1: They'll say, oh, there's no way he gets this within

157
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: ten feet. I mean, did he get this within fifteen feet?

158
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: He's made an incredible shot, and then they just go

159
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: up and knock it up and it's tap in. Yeah. Yeah.

160
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: I think that they're there to celebrate the game. I

161
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: think that they ken Vent Turie used to do this.

162
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: He used to be jim Nance's partner and he would

163
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: always say, Jimmy, I don't know what he's doing there.

164
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: He shouldn't be going the green here, and then he

165
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,839
Speaker 1: would go for the green and then you know somebody

166
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: who did a great shot. But you know, degree of

167
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: difficulty varies with generation to generation. I mean, I'll go

168
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: back to Pete Samper's talking about how great Roger Federer

169
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: is and Pete Sampras is one of the great players

170
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 1: of all time, and he says he actually completes shots,

171
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 1: hit shots that I wouldn't even think of hitting. You

172
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 1: get that creativity there, and it's just different because you

173
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: build off the previous generation. And here's Pete Sampers saying

174
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even think to hit that shot. Federer hits

175
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: the shot and hits a winner. Sean and Oregon. Hey Sean,

176
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,839
Speaker 1: what's on your mind today? Hey Dan, I hear about

177
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: Derek Jeter and his documentary. I want to hear what

178
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: he knows about sign stealing. I want to hear about

179
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,479
Speaker 1: what he knows about steroid use in the Yankees clubhouse.

180
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: That's what I want to know. Well, you're not going

181
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: to get those in the documentary. Just how awesome would

182
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: it be though? If he was like, Okay, Jeetz, just

183
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: go down the list of God, I'm gonna mention a name,

184
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: and then you say yes or no on steroids, all right, Conseco, Yes, ay, Rod, Yes,

185
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: then I would be interested in that. I don't know

186
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: about sign stealing. I wonder how much they get into

187
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: the era of era where he's not even the best

188
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: shortstop on his own team. Remember when that was? Oh?

189
00:11:53,600 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 1: I know, I know. What is this new article on

190
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,600
Speaker 1: Tiger's irons you just sent me, Dan? This is a

191
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen article from Yahoo Sports, and Tiger Woods actually

192
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: addressed those irons. Tiger Woods said the titleist irons offered

193
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: online for a minimum bit of two hundred fifty thousand.

194
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: This is when they were sold the first time to

195
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 1: that guy for fifty. He said those are not the

196
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 1: ones he used to win four consecutive majors. He quote,

197
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: he may have my set of irons, but they're not

198
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: from those tournaments. Tiger Woods said at the Players Championship

199
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen, they're in my garage. Wood said he

200
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: used two sets of irons for the Tiger Slam, and

201
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,439
Speaker 1: both sets are in his garage. Steve Matta, who worked

202
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: for Titleist at the time, said, I did all his

203
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: work on the tour, and I'm a titleist. We made

204
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: up two sets. They're absolutely the right ones, and I

205
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: stand by it. So Tiger was on the record about

206
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: this eight years ago. Huh. So they made up two

207
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: sets of irons, and Tiger says he has both sets

208
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: in his garage, which I would How much would you

209
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: pay to see Tiger Woods? Yeah, legit, it'd be pretty good. Um.

210
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: And then the titleist employee says that Tiger knows I

211
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: have them. I'm backing my story one hundred percent. Okay.

212
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: He also said that I think he has autographs on

213
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: the uh the major the flags. Uh, let's see, he

214
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:34,199
Speaker 1: would offer for sale flags from the four successive majors

215
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: that Tiger won. Um. Okay, well I know this person,

216
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,439
Speaker 1: um Steve mana at titleist, but we did reach out

217
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: to Tiger's agent just to I'm curious. I would be

218
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: shocked if Tigers said, here, take these irons. You know,

219
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: knowing the historical significance of those irons, that you would

220
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: not be giving those away. You might give away the

221
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: other set, but that's that's your backup. You know you

222
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: can't because you know, Tiger's got a restaurant down in

223
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: West Palm and uh I was in there a few

224
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: months back. There's a lot of memorabilian there, and you

225
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 1: would think that you would keep that, you know, put

226
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: it in a display case, not be giving it to somebody. Yeah. Well,

227
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: supposedly the title of former titlest employees took a lot

228
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 1: detector test to help verify these I mean yeah, polygraph

229
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: tests help verify now them believing those are Tigers clubs.

230
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: That's how you beat the things. You could beat a

231
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: lot detector test. So if you firmly believe yes, you

232
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: just keep telling yourself you got five point one million

233
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: reasons to believe that. Yes. Michael in Austin, Hey Michael,

234
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: what's on your mind? I'm a long time listener, I'm

235
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: actually driving from Austin to Seattle to deliver a vehicle

236
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: for a west point to that. But I used to

237
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: go to the Masters every year. I did all the

238
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: hospitality for R. J. Reynolds. So we would rent five

239
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: houses over at Jones Creek. I don't know if you're familiar,

240
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 1: I do know that area. Okay, Well we would play

241
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: that shotgun and then you know, in the old days,

242
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: you could get Monday Tuesday tickets for like five dollars

243
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: on Monday, ten dollars on Tuesday, and Wednesday was fifteen.

244
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: And of course we would buy badges for all our

245
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: and I never paid more than I think at one

246
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: time I had to pay twenty three hundred dollars for

247
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: one bage, but I had to have like thirty badges

248
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 1: in hand. And we had Charlie Coody would live in

249
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: one of our five houses and he would take everybody

250
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: down Magnolia Away. And yesterday you were talking about the

251
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: you know, in the old days, the place where you

252
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: bought all your memorabil it wasn't as big as at

253
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: seven to eleven. Now it's as big as a kambart. Yes, yeah,

254
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: And I have something that you might like for the

255
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: man cave. I have a thirty by forty eight a

256
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: large picture early h two twenty one autograph of Tiger

257
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 1: Woods surrounded by all four programs from the Tiger Slam,

258
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: and I then underneath that are all four of the

259
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: buttons that the you know, each player gets a button

260
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: that he wears generally on his belt or on his right,

261
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 1: on his tants, or on some aware of them on

262
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: the labor will tell of their shirt. And I'm just

263
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: wondering that's something you would like for your man cave. Well,

264
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: I would love to have it, Michael, but I would

265
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: feel guilty taking that from you know, you'd probably want

266
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: to leave that to, you know, somebody in your family.

267
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: Like I said, I would go there. You know, in

268
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: the old days there there was no pine, pine needles,

269
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, it was all all just grass, you know.

270
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: And I remember one year where they had fifty two

271
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: pine trees come down overnight and by the time they

272
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 1: woke up the next morning, everything was cleaned up because

273
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: they have a greenskeeper for every single hole. Yeah, it's uh,

274
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: you know, intention to detail there. But Michael, if you

275
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 1: if you want to send it, then we'll be happy

276
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 1: to display it. Yes, Marv DP, I feel less guilty. No,

277
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 1: you do, you would take it? Yeah, now, we'd find

278
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: a spot for it. We appreciate that. Um, we'll take

279
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: a break. We'll check in on the Lakers. We're back

280
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: after this and The Dan Patrick Show Spring twenty two

Speaker 1: And he said, same hoodie. I know. And you've got

292
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,000

00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: about a half hour ago. PAULI said, Uh, this tweet

307
00:18:54,720 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: certainly is interesting. Sam Amick the Athletic said, Lebron James

308
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: would be quote very enthused at the possibility of the

309
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: Lakers hiring Mark Jackson as head coach. I did reach

310
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: out to Mark Jackson about fifteen minutes ago, and I said,

311
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: Lakers question Mark, and then Mark said, my phone hasn't

312
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: been ringing. That was it a non denial denial. Sam Amick,

313
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: the Athletic reporter joining us on the program, explain your

314
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: conversation if you can. When did you have one with

315
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 1: Lebron and what came out of that. Good morning, Dan,

316
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: I was great to be with you. So he had

317
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: his exit interview with the media in La yesterday nine am.

318
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: He wanted to get it out of the way early,

319
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: which I found fascinating. Everybody else went in the afternoon.

320
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: Lebron had regular life to get back to, so he

321
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 1: jumped on Zoom. I was not there in person, so

322
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 1: I jumped on and asked him specifically about the messiness

323
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 1: of the Ogel firing and whether or not the lack

324
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: of professional hasn't bothered him at all. So that was

325
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 1: the That was the dialogue with him yesterday. And then,

326
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: like he said on the intro, here you know a

327
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 1: lot more information than the column itself. Okay, but what

328
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 1: did he say about the professionalism of the organization helping

329
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,239
Speaker 1: they handled Frank Vogel? I mean, like I wrote, so

330
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,640
Speaker 1: it's like to me, and the short version was translated

331
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 1: in my mind as I just work here, you know

332
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: what I mean, which is obviously not the case. But

333
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: he kind of had a vibe about him of he

334
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: went through this whole thing. It's just like, Sam, you know,

335
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 1: I knew when I was talking to you all this morning,

336
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: so I got up extra early so I could take

337
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,360
Speaker 1: my daughter to school, dropped here off of school, came

338
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: down and he went through this whole thing about his day,

339
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,400
Speaker 1: and he said, I was three minutes late to talk

340
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: to you guys. I apologize. You know, he was talking

341
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 1: to his media advisor Adam Mendelssen on the side before

342
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: jumping on zoom and and so at the end of it,

343
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: he just essentially said, you can't control how you know,

344
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: people feel about the way you've handled your business. That

345
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,719
Speaker 1: kind of it is what it is, essentially, and it

346
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: wasn't to me. It wasn't this missive of Frank at all.

347
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: It was just another example of a lebron kind of

348
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: looking around in Lakerland and saying, I'm not gonna be

349
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: held accountable for all the weirdness that occasionally happens around here.

350
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 1: What did Frank Vogel do or not do that costume

351
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: that his john. I mean, that's a great question. I

352
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: mean the obvious is just not win ball games. I

353
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: think it's as simple as that. And then because he didn't,

354
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: in my opinion, if you know, you could argue that

355
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: he you know, you hear the adage of just he

356
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: lost your players. I don't think it's that simple, because

357
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: there was not acrimony between Frank and his players other

358
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: than in my opinion, Russell Westbrook. You know, and I

359
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 1: think that Frank tried his best to make the Westbrook's

360
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:04,919
Speaker 1: station work. But you know, this was a disastrous season

361
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: for a team that you know that Vegas had winning

362
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: the whole thing, I believe going into the season. So

363
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: it's just that. And really I think it's also a

364
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 1: lack of connectivity between Frank and the front office that

365
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: I would put on the front office that you know,

366
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 1: Rob Polinka is it's an interesting time to be robbed

367
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: because when he won the championship and after the Magic

368
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: Johnson experience, it was obviously all over the headlines like

369
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: it winning it all masked a lot of the kind

370
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: of internal dysfunction that I think was there the entire time,

371
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 1: and now we are seeing it kind of rear its

372
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,919
Speaker 1: head again. So to your question about Frank, I just

373
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: think it's it's the accountability question. They lost ball games.

374
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 1: You're not going to fire Lebron and say hey, you

375
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 1: want to Russ so you're out of here. That doesn't happen.

376
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 1: And then Rob is kind of, you know, in my opinion,

377
00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: wiping his hands of this, even though he built the

378
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 1: roster until Frank ends up being the fall guy. Yeah.

379
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 1: I just wonder about this, the the disconnect with Russell

380
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: Westbrook and Frank Vogel, that how was Frank supposed to

381
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 1: use Russell Westbrook, that he didn't use him in that way.

382
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 1: I mean, he did play the most minutes, and he

383
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: did play seventy eight games, so Russ was on the

384
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: floor more than anybody else. He was. To me, it's

385
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 1: just it's a painful um process when elite how you

386
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: future Hall of Fame players have to come to grips

387
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: with the fact that they're just in a different stage.

388
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: And you know, there's been I think apt comparisons made

389
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: between Russ and Allen Iverson. You know, hopefully he has

390
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 1: a kind of a better exit than Allen did when

391
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 1: you know he's in Memphis and Detroit. But that's where

392
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: Russ is is this question of like he talked a

393
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: lot about sacrifice yesterday, and I do understand that he

394
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 1: made some with this team, but I think deep down

395
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 1: he still gets up in the morning feeling like he

396
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 1: can be Russell Westbrook, the guy who averaged triple double

397
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: however many times and former MVP, And so you know

398
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: he's not ready to let that go. And more importantly,

399
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: even if he is, that's what's always made him great

400
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: and we have not seen some kind of watered down

401
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 1: version of his game where you see an evolution to

402
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: where he can be an impact player off the ball defensively,

403
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: you know, doing the little things that that profile has

404
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 1: never existed. So, you know, I just think if you're Frank,

405
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: You're you're sitting there shaking your head, like, what am

406
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 1: I supposed to do here? Yeah, because you have a

407
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: player who still thinks he's Russell Westbrook of seven years ago,

408
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: and you can't change him. At thirty four. He still

409
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 1: can't shoot. He has it's almost like his body and

410
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 1: his mind work really fast, but they don't always work

411
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 1: in unison and that he and I love the effort

412
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: that he gives. It's just sometimes it's the effort that

413
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: gets him in trouble. And I don't know if you're

414
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna get Lebron at season twenty, I get Westbrook.

415
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 1: I guess I get Anthony Davis, and then what else

416
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 1: am I getting? Is this an attractive job? Right? Absolutely?

417
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: And you're not alone, by the way, with your analysis

418
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: of his mind and body. You know, it's just kind

419
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: of having a bit of a sync problem there, if

420
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,359
Speaker 1: you will. It's you know, we saw that moment courtside

421
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: in the regular season when Shack kind of chirped out

422
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: him a little bit to tell him to slow down.

423
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,440
Speaker 1: There's some people with the Lakers who have tried to

424
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,959
Speaker 1: find solutions here with that kind of mentality of you know,

425
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 1: how do we get the best how to Russ? And

426
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 1: I'm dying to see going forward. I mean, I know

427
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: everybody assumes he's going to get traded. I don't know

428
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 1: if it's going to be as easy as people think,

429
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: so you know, for all I know, I mean maybe

430
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: they end up having to run it back and and

431
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 1: and talk him into being a sixth man. I mean

432
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 1: it's unlikely, but um, it was an uncomfortable year and

433
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 1: on a human level, at times, I did feel bad

434
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: for Russ because we can all at least appreciate the

435
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: idea that he grew up in the city, comes back,

436
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: thinks it's going to be you know, the stuff of

437
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: childhood dreams, and he becomes kind of the poster boy

438
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: for one of the most infamous teams probably in league history.

439
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: How did the name Mark Jackson. Come up with your

440
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: conversation with Lebron. No, that was you know, and you

441
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: know how our jobs are. That was reporting um that

442
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: I will just say, you know, was confidently gleaned that

443
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: that he would give a big guns up to Mark.

444
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: That was not part of the zoom conversation. Oh okay, okay, yeah, yeah,

445
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 1: that was that was you know, that was relayed to me.

446
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: I will say though, it's it's you know this the

447
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: politics of this league. Oh, it never ceased to amaze me.

448
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: It's like there is an understandable desire from you know,

449
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: his side and his camp too. You know, they're very

450
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 1: sensitive to the idea that that that he's pulling the

451
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: strings with the Lakers. And I think that makes some

452
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: really good points. So like on the Mark Jackson front,

453
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: I tried to write it as accurately and delicately as possible.

454
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: He just would he would give a big thumbs up

455
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 1: if they hired Mark Jackson. That's not me saying he's

456
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 1: internally pushing for Mark and saying Mark Jackson or else.

457
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,439
Speaker 1: Because Lebron knows that that, you know, the second that

458
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,640
Speaker 1: he does that, it becomes a story and we all

459
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 1: know that he did push for the Westbrook trade, and

460
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 1: now that's partly on his unofficial kind of GM resume.

461
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: So it's it's Mark is a guy. I mean, Mark's

462
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: got a ton of superstar support in this league, and

463
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: so the longer he doesn't have a head coaching job,

464
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 1: I think this kind of noise will only get louder.

465
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,639
Speaker 1: But in terms of Lebron an ad and the makeup

466
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: of this locker room, the way it was relayed to

467
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: me is that they would react well to somebody like

468
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: Mark who could command the room and you come in

469
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: with the respect of the stars and role players alike,

470
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: and that the Lebron's not alone. There's quite a few

471
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: guys that think that would be a good excuse me,

472
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,360
Speaker 1: a good fit. Yeah. But I think I've always got

473
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: this feeling. I'm friends with Mark, and you know, we've

474
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 1: had conversations of why he's not getting another job. It

475
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: feels like the players are all in. It doesn't feel

476
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 1: like the front office is all in with Mark Jackson.

477
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: Would you say that's fair? Yeah? I would to that point.

478
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: I found it somewhat fascinating. You know. I wrote the story.

479
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 1: Are Place published it this morning, and they found a

480
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: picture of Mark Jackson talking to Rob Polinka, and that

481
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: picture in and of itself made me wonder, like, I

482
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 1: don't know the exact state of that relationship. That is

483
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: the sort of thing, you know, that wouldn't matter m

484
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: But the backstory, though is you know, is one that

485
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: is you know, it's probably needs more time to be analyzed.

486
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: But I mean, his warrior's exit was was Bessie. You know,

487
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: I think that Joe Lacob and that group were frustrated

488
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 1: with him at that time to a point where you know,

489
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: parts of that experience stuck with him as he's left

490
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: in terms of his reputation. And there's other stuff too.

491
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, there's Jason Collins or Jared Collins

492
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: comments rather that that you know, are tough to get

493
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: away from in today's climate. And I think, like, I mean,

494
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: everybody's made mistakes, so every candidate these days is going

495
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: to have stuff to work through with the organization that

496
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: they're possibly going to work with. And I will say, though,

497
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: this is the first time for me in a while

498
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: where you're starting to feel like the ground swell with

499
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: Mark might tip a bit to where you navigate those

500
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: waters and and and eventually see him on a sideline. Again, well,

501
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: those players better be ready because Mark is a hard

502
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 1: nosed guy, no nonsense guy. He I don't know if

503
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: he's a players coach, but he demands he demands accountability.

504
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: I'll say this much quickly lived down on that front.

505
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: One of the thriving forces I think in terms of

506
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: his reputation being in good shape with players now is

507
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: that publicly privately? If you go at a Steph Curry

508
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: and Draymond Green and Clay Thompson, guys that he was

509
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 1: obviously sharing the room with for years, they continue to

510
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: speak highly of the impact he had on them and

511
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: the way that he kind of set the tone for

512
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: what they accomplished once he was gone. So that kind

513
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: of stuff matters a great deal. And again there's a

514
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: lot of support from Mark. Sam. Great job, it's great

515
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 1: to talk to you again. Thanks for joining us on

516
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: short notice. You got it. Thank you Dad. All right,

517
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: Sam Amick, the senior NBA writer for the Athletic I

518
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: did reach out to March and I just said, Lakers

519
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: question Mark, and then he said his phone has not

520
00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: been ringing. No, it might, but even if it had,

521
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: Mark's not gonna fip his hand. Here because he's had

522
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 1: opportunities or he thought he had opportunities and it didn't

523
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: pan out. But he did do a great job with

524
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,040
Speaker 1: Golden State. Now when they they had Steph and they

525
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: had Clay Draymond Green, you know, the the nucleus was there.

526
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: It just it kind of unraveled quickly for Mark. Yeah, Paul,

527
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 1: this might be very obvious. But if you're Mark Jackson

528
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,959
Speaker 1: who has a really nice media job, yes, a prime

529
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: media job that's you can't really get it back. You

530
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: can get media jobs again. If a Lakers called and offered,

531
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: do you even consider not taking it? Now? You take

532
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: that job because it's Lakers. Yeah, it's like the Cowboys,

533
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: you know, it might not be ideal or the Yankees,

534
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,840
Speaker 1: that it's still you're coaching the Lakers. And he's been

535
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: trying to get back into coaching. I know that he has,

536
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,960
Speaker 1: you know, his is church and the importance of that.

537
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: But to be in Los Angeles and be able to

538
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: coach the Lakers and be able to coach Lebron, yeah,

539
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: I couldn't see him turning that down. You know, he

540
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: does have a great job that he gets to do

541
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: the the NBA Finals, he gets to do the Playoffs

542
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: for the Mothership, but it doesn't have that same feel

543
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 1: as doing Monday Night Football or Sunday Night Football. You know,

544
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: he's got a great relationship with Jeff Van Gundy and

545
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: Mike Breen does a great job as well. It's a

546
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: great team. I just think if you get this opportunity, now,

547
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: you get a chance to show people, hey, I can coach.

548
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: I should have still been coaching. Yea. I wonder though,

549
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 1: if guys like m John Gruden wishes he was still

550
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: at Monday Night Football. That was a prime job he

551
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: was making. He was the highest paid ESPN employee at

552
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: the time. He could have stayed Monday Football probably for

553
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: a night, he'd probably still be there. That was a

554
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: good booth. Yeah, but you want to prove that you

555
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: can still coach. You want to, Yeah, you know that,

556
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 1: That's what It's just a matter of time before they

557
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: come back. All of those coaches that I worked with

558
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: at ESPN, they were there, but they always wanted to

559
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: get back. Denny Green, Marty Schottenheimer, Parcels. But they're always

560
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: the outliers. You know, when Bill Kauer says I'm done

561
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: and we think, no, he's going to come back, He'll

562
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:26,479
Speaker 1: coach the Jets or Giants. Jeff Van Gundy has been

563
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: rumored to be coming back and coaching or trying to

564
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: come back and coach. Yeah, yes, yeah, I mean I

565
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 1: would imagine for most broadcasters say like, would you rather

566
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 1: be broadcasting the playoffs are coaching in the playoffs? Of

567
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: most of those coaches, I bet even those players who

568
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 1: still they just can't play anymore, but they would much

569
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: rather be in the game than talking about it. Yeah.

570
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: And I've I've talked to a couple of people who

571
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 1: hold well held really important jobs in broadcasting and they

572
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: would say, you know, they wanted to go back into

573
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: coaching or you know, being a player, and you just

574
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 1: tell them that you might not get that opportunity again.

575
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:10,920
Speaker 1: And two of them went back into coaching and weren't

576
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: successful when they went back. But you know, I had

577
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,359
Speaker 1: a conversation with them after the fact and they said,

578
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: you know what, but this is what this is who

579
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 1: I am. I'm a coach. You know, I got to broadcast,

580
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 1: but I'm a coach. And I understood that it's just

581
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: you know, if you let it go and it's not

582
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 1: tethered to you, they move on quickly in this business.

583
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: We'll take a break, last call for phone calls, what

601
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: what's up? Guys? Hey man? You know Dan, I've been

602
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,240
Speaker 1: a Laker fan since the first championship or the first

603
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: LA championship seventy two. And you know, the Lakers, this

604
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: is not a one year problem. The Lakers have missed

605
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: the playoff seven of the last nine years. You know,

606
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 1: they have been dysfunctional for a long time. As he

607
00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: was talking about in it, leaking that championship in the

608
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 1: bubble actually was fool's gold. It did three things. It

609
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: made the media think the Lakers were now back to

610
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,840
Speaker 1: being a dynasty and start picking them to win everything again.

611
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: It gave the fans the wrong expectation that the Lakers

612
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: were set to go on a run. But it made

613
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: ownership and management think that they knew what they were doing.

614
00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: Lebron signed himself and Anthony Davis forced the trade. We

615
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 1: saw all how Magic and Rob below, I mean Rob Polinka,

616
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 1: that drama and blew up, like why do Magic still

617
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,759
Speaker 1: work for the Lakers or not? Like why are he

618
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 1: still talking? Why the Lakers always kept things in But

619
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: now the Laquers. I never thought in my lifetime that

620
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: the Laquers would become the Clippers, but that's exactly what

621
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 1: they've done. If the roles are reversed, and it's because

622
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,520
Speaker 1: and again I think Jeanie buzz is the nicest lady

623
00:36:56,520 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 1: and sweetest, but she got thrust into this with Octobus died. Yeah,

624
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 1: well they would aspire to be the Clippers since the

625
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 1: Clippers are in the playoffs right now. Yeah, you wonder

626
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,680
Speaker 1: when when you when you're hiring a coach and those

627
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 1: that you passed on, like Montie Williams, to me is

628
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: one of the great coaches in the NBA, and I

629
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: thought that he would be a great coach for them.

630
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 1: Tylu wanted the job. Jason Kidd was on Frank Vogel's staff.

631
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: You know, these coaches have all done really well in

632
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 1: their their new positions. They're in the playoffs. But you know,

633
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 1: is Mark Jackson the guy you're gonna come in and

634
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: you know you got Lebron in year twenty, I got Westbrook?

635
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: Lebron once Westbrook or at least he's saying that publicly

636
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: he may love him, does he want to be a

637
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 1: teammate of him? And what can you get for Russell

638
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: Westbrook if you trade him? Anthony Davis can be great,

639
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 1: just not consistently great, you know, But to look at

640
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: the rest of the roster. That's the problem I have

641
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: with this I didn't like Westbrook. I understood it. Didn't

642
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: like it, and I thought that you still needed to

643
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: fill this out and they could have in a different way.

644
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 1: Now we can all look back and say, well, they

645
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 1: should have gone for Demarta Rosen. I don't know if

646
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: anybody was objecting that vehemently, like, oh my god, they

647
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: didn't get Demarta Rosen. I mean, Rosen wasn't Demarta Rosen

648
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: wasn't an All star the previous three years in San Antonio,

649
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden he had a unbelievable

650
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: year in Chicago. Buddy Healed. I did like, because you've

651
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 1: got a guy who is a specialist, and you need

652
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 1: that in today's NBA because they don't have that. It's this,

653
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,840
Speaker 1: this won't be easy, and this isn't see. This is

654
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 1: where if you're a Lebron how how much longer do

655
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: you want to play? If if it's sort of like

656
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: this that you don't know how good you're going to

657
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,359
Speaker 1: be and you can't go out and get player because

658
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: Lebron loves to trade in the young player's draft picks

659
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,399
Speaker 1: to get veteran players, and you can't do that right now.

660
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: This day in sports history, Pauli, one of my favorites.

661
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,920
Speaker 1: In eighteen seventy seven, a catcher's mask was used in

662
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:15,479
Speaker 1: a baseball game for the first time by James Alexander Tying.

663
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: Soft soft you know. He got ripped on sports radio

664
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 1: the next day. So here's the backstory. This guy, Jim

665
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 1: Tying was a pitcher and catcher at Harvard and he

666
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: wore the baseball wore the mask. His team manager, Fred Thayre,

667
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,280
Speaker 1: received a patent for the entire concept of a baseball

668
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 1: catcher's mask. After that, it didn't catch on in the

669
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,160
Speaker 1: pros until a few years later. Yeah, it was just

670
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:41,359
Speaker 1: recently that they celebrated the anniversary of the first shin

671
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 1: guards for a catcher. I can't imagine catching not having

672
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: shin guards and not having a mask. There, macmember. When

673
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 1: goaltenders didn't have mask, boy, I do they were, Oh yeah,

674
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 1: it's always Jacques Plunt. It always seems like that's the

675
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,439
Speaker 1: that's the goalie you think of. Remember when goalies didn't

676
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 1: have masks, Jacques plant Yeah. And to think too that

677
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,400
Speaker 1: once mass wear like sort of you know, put into hockey.

678
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: I've bet a lot of people were very unhappy about it.

679
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 1: What the heck is this I can't see through this

680
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: thing even wearing this four Yeah. It was also on

681
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: this date nineteen sixty one, General MacArthur declined to become

682
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 1: Baseball Commissioner. He would not have war mask. He would

683
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 1: not he would have had his helmet on he had

684
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: gone into battle. Let me see anything else in here, um.

685
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 1: Nineteen ninety two, Matt Young of the Red Sox throws

686
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,839
Speaker 1: a no hitter but loses to Cleveland two to one.

687
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:51,760
Speaker 1: Reggie and Mississippi high rads, what's on your mind today? Man? MacArthur,

688
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 1: that's the guy with the pipe, right, Yeah, he wouldn't

689
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: have warre Man. Listen, listen real quick, man, Um, I'm

690
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,800
Speaker 1: anticipating this Jeter document to hear, to hear his account

691
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: on the two thousand and three ALCS when they face

692
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 1: the Socks and Don Zimmer whisper over to him and says, hey,

693
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to watch the kick Pedro Marquinez

694
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: fast and Jeter goes go forward. Skill. You can totally

695
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: take that guy, Thank you, Reggie. I have no idea

696
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 1: what kind of drama will be attached to Derek Jeter,

697
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 1: but we're trying to help the scriptwriters we're trying to

698
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: make it interesting here. Hey, and there's Derek Jeter and

699
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: one another world series. Hey Derek Jeter with Minka Kelly.

700
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 1: All right, he got a contract extension. I think the

701
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: only drama that I could think of would be when

702
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: a Rod came to town. Let's go around the room.

703

Speaker 1: You'd like to see him major league team go with

705
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 1: an opposite strategy. You get a bunch of fast guys

706
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: to steal bases like those eighty five Cardinals. Yeah, I

707
