We're going 9 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 2: to get to all of it, but I must get 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 2: something off my chest as the nonsensical groupthink echo chamber 11 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: narrative simply won't go away. The loser's limit crazy talk. 12 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 2: So let me let me just start here, and then 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: I will morph into a historical perspective. And of course 14 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: you already know I'm I'm talking about the Kansas City Chiefs. 15 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 3: Right. 16 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 2: It must must be the refs, It must be a conspiracy. 17 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 2: Sure see, here's the deal. When history repeats itself, as 18 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,639 Speaker 2: it has four times on our own. Now, just dealing 19 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: with Buffalo and the Chiefs, there's always a convergence of 20 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 2: factors leadership, decision making, execution, situational awareness, preparedness, confidence, icy 21 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 2: cold precision. By the way, Paging Buffalo, I will mention 22 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 2: that James Cook's non usage when it mattered most in 23 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, or a quarterback sneak on fourth down 24 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: the whole world knew was coming, or for whatever reason 25 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: in these high leverage moments in January and Arrowhead, Sean 26 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 2: McDermott just looks very unsure of himself. By the way, 27 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: he's the head coach of the Buffalo Bills. I got 28 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: no beef with McDermott. But facts as facts. There are 29 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: objective truths, and there are personal feelings. And the truth 30 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: is the Bills had plenty of chances to win that game. 31 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: So please miss me with the loser's lament about the 32 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 2: refs and the conspiracy theories. But that said, let's dive 33 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 2: into that historical perspective. You are underestimating how truly special 34 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 2: this Chiefs team is. Don't try to marginalize them because 35 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 2: they don't blow everybody up by six touchdowns. They're the 36 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 2: fourth team to reach three Super Bowls in the first 37 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: team to make the game after winning back to back 38 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,639 Speaker 2: Super Bowls. Got that, the first team to make back 39 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: to the game after winning back to back Super Bowls, Now. 40 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: As hard as it is to win two titles in 41 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: a row, a three peat is a rarity in any 42 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 2: of the major sports. If you go across the NBA, 43 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 2: Major League Baseball, NHL, and even the WNBA. In the 44 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: history of all of those leagues, there have been a 45 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 2: total of fourteen instances where a team has won three 46 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: straight titles, and it hasn't happened in twenty three years. 47 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 2: The Los Angeles Lakers from two thy to twenty two, well, 48 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: they're the last team to complete a three peat. The 49 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: Chiefs had gone eight straight games without a turnover, the 50 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: longest streak of any in the Super Bowl era, and 51 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 2: of course, until Patrick Mahomes lost the fumble against the 52 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: Bills last week, that's the same Mahomes who also enters 53 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl on a nine to zero straight up 54 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: and eight to one against the spread playoff front. And 55 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 2: then there's the legend Andy Reid, the winning his coach 56 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: in both Kansas City and Philadelphia's franchise histories. By the way, 57 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 2: the Chiefs, Yes, they've won a remarkable twelve one score 58 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 2: games this season, and dating back to last season, seventeen 59 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 2: in a row. Oh. By the way, they're also twenty 60 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: three and two straight up in their last twenty five 61 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: overall games, with one of those two losses at Denver 62 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: in the season's final game when they played the JV 63 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: team and the starters were glued to the bench. That's 64 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: not a bad body of work. But no, what's the 65 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 2: news cycle? New cycle? We're in a twenty four to 66 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: seven news cycle. It's rolling over every day. It's rare 67 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: for any story to linger more than twenty four hours. Well, 68 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 2: this one is defeating that. It's the NonStop anger over 69 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 2: the Chief's history of controversial calls. It's now lasting years 70 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 2: and of course just fueled by a handful during their 71 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 2: thirty two to twenty nine went over Buffalo. But it's 72 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: just really new. Come down memory lane with me for 73 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 2: just a minute. Okay. Wasn't it a similar story for 74 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: the New England Patriots dynasty that the Kansas City Chiefs 75 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 2: succeeded after New England's twenty eighteen NFCY championship went over 76 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: the Jaguars, which I'm sure you remember, which also included 77 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: a controversial pass interference call among many other flags. Believe 78 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 2: it or not, Forbes magazine, of all magazines, went in 79 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: with these damning memes and cartoons accusing the Chiefs, check 80 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 2: that accusing the Patriots of the same Michiganos. The Chiefs 81 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: are being preaded with now, but historically work with me historically. Overall, 82 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: this is how it goes with Jargernauts. They play, they win, 83 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: they win again. They more names than anybody else, and 84 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: people just get tired of that. And once enough people 85 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 2: are looking for excuses of signs and officials favoring the dynasty, 86 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: all of a sudden you start to look for them 87 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 2: and see them in every play. Maybe refs feel drawn 88 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 2: to give some calls to veteran stars well in basketball, 89 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 2: for instance, but also maybe the best teams just simply 90 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: know how to take advantage of the rules. You know, 91 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 2: there's an old saying be in the right place at 92 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: the right time, but that sentence doesn't then with the period. 93 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 2: It ends with a comma, be in the right place 94 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 2: at the right time. Comma and do something about it. 95 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: See today, Patrick Mahomes, he's basically the new Tom Brady 96 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 2: like Brady used to be. One unnamed NFL coach says 97 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 2: he's a lot like Tom Brady and that he's a 98 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: great manipulator. He offers a masterclass quote in leveraging rules 99 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: designed to protect quarterbacks, but there was none of that 100 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: on Sunday, though the Chiefs received a couple of major 101 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: calls that could have gone to Buffalo. Well, there was 102 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 2: a poll amongst fans on Monday, and here's where people stood. 103 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: Did Josh Allen gain the first down on that fourth 104 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 2: and one sneak? Eighty percent said yes, the ball touched 105 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: the line. I'm in agreeable with that, and if you 106 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 2: are going to take that to your grave, that's the 107 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: reason the Bills lost. Knock yourself out. How important were 108 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 2: the controversial calls from Worthy's catch to Alan sneak? Fifty 109 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: percent says they were game changing? Okay, you think what 110 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 2: you want to think, but the other fifty percent think 111 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 2: a other factors played a larger role. B the Bills 112 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: must share a blame for finding themselves in these positions, 113 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 2: or some even said of the respondents, No, it was 114 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: an evenly called game. By the way, this season, the 115 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: Eagles were called for the fourth most unnecessary roughness penalties. 116 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 2: So this Super Bowl, can they let it come down 117 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 2: to subjective calls like that? Remember the Eagles allegedly lost 118 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 2: this matchup two years ago. Because of a holding penalty. 119 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: Here's the reality, and you hate it. Patrick Maholmes. When 120 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: the situation demands greatness, there's nobody better in today's game, 121 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: and he's in. You know, as bum Phillips once said, 122 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 2: when it comes to the greatest in history. He may 123 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: not be the head of the class, but it don't 124 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 2: take long to cole role. Patrick Mahomes just simply shines 125 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:35,679 Speaker 2: the brightest when the stage is brightest. Maholmes has been nails. 126 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 2: He's right now. He's standing on the brink of NFL history. 127 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 2: If he could make the Chiefs the first team to 128 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 2: ever win three straight Super Bowls. By the way, and 129 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: winking a nod to my mentor Dick Shep and Vincent 130 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 2: Lombardi's Packers, they won three straight and sixty six, sixty seven, 131 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: and sixty eight, but only the latter two are actually 132 00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: Super Bowls. Just note that if this comes to pass, 133 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: or even if it doesn't, where will Patrick Mahomes rank 134 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: among all the players who've been lucky enough to even 135 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 2: just get to one Super Bowl? All Right, I'll tell you, 136 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: let's have a little fun. I'm not going to break 137 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 2: down their NFL careers, just how they performed into Super 138 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 2: Bowl and how often they got there and won. So 139 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 2: who's the guy you'd most want to win with the 140 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: game on the line, who would crush your names the 141 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: hardest if you were giving the chance right now? Number 142 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 2: one is Tom Brady. You know all the Super Bowls 143 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: he won seven, go went to ten of them. But 144 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 2: this is what Mahomes is aiming for, knowing full well 145 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 2: he went on two against Brady in the playoffs. Now, 146 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: Brady's first Super Bowl only saw him throw for a 147 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 2: buck forty five, of course, in a big time game 148 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 2: winning drive, But even after that, he still averaged better 149 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: than three hundred and three yards every time he took 150 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: center stage in the biggest game of the year. Six 151 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: of Brady's Super Bowl wins or result of game winning 152 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 2: drives after he had been tied or trailing in the 153 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. Let's not forget Joe Montana winking nod to 154 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 2: John Candy. Four super Bowls four to zero, two hundred 155 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 2: and eighty seven yards per game through eleven touchdown passes, 156 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 2: didn't throw a single interception, completed sixty nine percent of 157 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 2: his passes nine point four yards per pass. Oh yeah, 158 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: just for fun, Joe Montana even rushed for two touchdowns 159 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 2: at a Super Bowl and had accumulative one twenty seven 160 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: point eight passer rating. Now these are twenty Montana's numbers 161 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: are like today's numbers. And this is a guy who 162 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 2: took the field four decades ago. Now, half those games 163 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 2: were blowouts and the only needed one game winning drive, 164 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 2: the famous one in nineteen eighty nine against the Bengals. 165 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: But Montana he was like PlayStation compared to Atari twenty 166 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: six hundred. That's for you, Jason and Mike. Finally, finally, 167 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 2: I want to get this also off my chest. Regarding 168 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: Josh Allen. I get it. It's now going to be 169 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: pointed out that Allen is oh to four versus Kansas 170 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 2: City in the playoffs. But in those four games, the 171 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 2: Bills averaged twenty eight points, Allen's throwing for almost fourteen 172 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: hundred yards, eleven touchdowns, one interception. Defensively, the Bills who've 173 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: given out thirty eight, forty two, twenty seven, and thirty 174 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: two in those games for an average thirty four points 175 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: a game. What you want Josh Allen to play defense to? Okay, 176 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: knock yourselves out, Winters, tell jokes, losers say shut up, 177 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 2: and deal. But in the poker game of Super Bowl life, 178 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: you better give the Chiefs their due. Don't blame the refs, 179 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 2: blame yourself for being caught up in the group. Think 180 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 2: echo chamber.

Real good? And listen. Is it my imagination before 222 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 2: it really dive into the meat and potatoes of what 223 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: I want to talk about tonight? Is it jumps my imagination? 224 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 2: Or is there is little buzz about the college basketball 225 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 2: season as we're just six weeks from March Madness select Sunday, 226 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: as I've seen in quite some time, it just doesn't 227 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: feel like the buzz is there. Am I wrong? 228 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 6: No, You're not wrong, And I think that's because there's 229 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 6: a lot of reasons for that. But I think the 230 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 6: main thing is is that we don't have a so 231 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 6: called dominant team this year we had in the past. 232 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 6: I think there's so much parody this year that the 233 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 6: buzz is a little bit gone. You know, there's not 234 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 6: the chase and undefeated season or the Yukon that had 235 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 6: the chase for back to back that they accomplish, So 236 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 6: the college basketball buzz is it's gone down a little bit. 237 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 6: I mean, for me that's inside of it every day. 238 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 6: You know, I'm used to what's happening inside the realms 239 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 6: of the games, but from the outside, people that aren't 240 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 6: in every day. I can see where that feeling could 241 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 6: come from, Bernie. And also keep in mind, miss those 242 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 6: aren't that aren't even college basketball fans come to the 243 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 6: forefront once marks his. 244 00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 2: Oh yeah no, there's no question. And the brackets and 245 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 2: the betting and have a lot to do with it. 246 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: And I guess I need to be fair. At least 247 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 2: people know enough about Duke. I believe Duke is still 248 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 2: currently number one, right with Cooper flag. Is that fair? 249 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 6: It's either Duke or Auburn. 250 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 7: I'm okay. 251 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 6: I mentioned to look at that earlier today. It's one 252 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 6: of the two. It might be Auburn one, Duke two, 253 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 6: or Duke one Auburn two. It's one of those two. 254 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 6: And I've been saying for the last month and a half. 255 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 6: People ask me, like, you know who's going to win 256 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 6: it all? And if you had to pick somebody right now, 257 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 6: as I can't do it because one A and one 258 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 6: B are so close in my mind between Duke and Auburn. 259 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 6: It's literally a coin toss for me on which team 260 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 6: could be better. 261 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: It's very difficult to predict who can win six games 262 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 2: in a row survive in advance, as they say. Talking 263 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 2: with Tom Connolly, basketball and Saturday former Division one basketball coach, 264 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: scout scouting director, national recruiter. You made a statement about 265 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 2: a minute and a half ago that I want to 266 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,239 Speaker 2: piggyback on there are no great teams in college basketball? 267 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: How much of that as a byproduct? Now, we're forever 268 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: hearing a about the transfer portal in college football. The 269 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 2: first two years it was open, over five thousand players 270 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: jumped into it. How much has the transfer portal and 271 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 2: NIL infiltrated college basketball majorly? 272 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 6: And there are two separate items there, so let me 273 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 6: handle one at a time. For sure, at the transfer portal, 274 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 6: the transfer portal has done this to college basketball. It 275 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 6: is literally shut down the funnel for high school kids 276 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 6: to get into NCAA Division one and even Division two 277 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 6: basketball because of the transfer portal. The coaches make no 278 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 6: bones about it. Their first choice is to get into 279 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 6: the transfer portal, get the best player that fits their system, 280 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 6: their coaching staff and available, and fill their open ross 281 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 6: response from those kids that left their programs to go 282 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 6: into the portal. So it's like a hamster wheel. So 283 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 6: much of who's leaving, who's coming in, who's at what 284 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 6: school where, and who's transferring where? But What gets left 285 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 6: out is the high school kids these days, and they 286 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 6: have to find another way what I call to get 287 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 6: into the game, to find their way into Division and 288 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 6: or Division two basketball. NIL has turned college basketball into 289 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 6: a free for all. It is really the players are 290 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 6: running the programs. Coaches are coaching, and coaches have their programs. 291 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 6: Don't get me wrong, but the players are running the 292 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 6: programs because in junior college you're constantly flipping over a 293 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 6: roster every single year because you lose guys, you only 294 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 6: have them for one or two years. For a long time, 295 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 6: the four year coaches used to make fun of the 296 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 6: two year guys, going, well, I got guys for four years. 297 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 6: I can implement my stuff. I can put in my 298 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 6: offense and my exes and o's. That's no longer gone. 299 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 6: The NIL has changed that to where the four year 300 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 6: schools now are just a exaggerated junior college program in 301 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 6: my eyes, because they're constantly have to flip rosters over 302 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 6: every year. The players are in control, the coaches aren't 303 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 6: in control. 304 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 7: I don't like it. 305 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 6: I think we need a college commissioner to come in Burnie. 306 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 6: In my eyes, that can, you know, put some implications 307 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 6: in there to slow down this transferring, put a cap 308 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 6: on this nil free for all that's going everywhere. I mean, 309 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 6: if they don't, it's completely out of control. Nod, It's 310 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 6: only going to get worse. 311 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I hold that thought. I'm going to get 312 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 2: into that and what you see for the future. And 313 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 2: you brought up a great point a few weeks back 314 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 2: during the panel at Dom de Marco's about a who's 315 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 2: who of coaches who left the game. Hold that for 316 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 2: the thought. But I want to dive into this because 317 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: what's interesting, Tommy is it's evident to me that, even 318 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: more so in college basketball, the transfer portal is not 319 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: the panacea. Look at Arkansas. They're not in the top 320 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 2: twenty five. They're twelve and six but there or twelve 321 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 2: and eight, but they're one and six in conference. They 322 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 2: picked up two big players out of the transfer portal 323 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 2: last year, John al Davis from Florida Atlantic, who helped 324 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 2: get his team to the Final four, and Jonas Adou 325 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 2: from Tennessee who was an All SEC guy. Neither one 326 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 2: are performing to the level they'd hoped and Arkansas's one 327 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 2: on six in conference. So is it starting to now 328 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 2: catch the attention of coaches and nil collectives that hey, 329 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 2: we got to be careful or spend our money because 330 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 2: this isn't working like we thought it would. 331 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, you are onto something there, Bernie, because as a 332 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 6: former coach, the biggest thing that you have when you're 333 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 6: taking transfer players, and let's face it, these coaches are 334 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 6: taking not one, multiple transfer players these days, and now 335 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 6: you have to mold personalities and team chemistry and cohesion 336 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 6: and making sure these guys get along. I don't know 337 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 6: what's going on in the razorback locker room. I know 338 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 6: Cali Pari will get it going as he has everywhere 339 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 6: else he's been. My guess is the two guys aren't 340 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 6: getting along because one wants to have their share. 341 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 8: Of the shots. 342 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 6: The other one feels like he is not getting his 343 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 6: share of the shots. Plus you have a whole other 344 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 6: conglomeer players that want to get their hands on the ball. 345 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 6: It'll be interesting. See with Arkansas it is one of 346 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 6: the teams that I have so much, you know, Chuck Mark, 347 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 6: so to speak of how many are going to enter 348 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 6: in the portal? Is Cali party When he did get 349 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 6: that job, it was a little bit later into the 350 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 6: transfer portal market, so to speak to try and build 351 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 6: a team because there was nobody left at Arkansas when 352 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 6: he got there. Now, what's going to happen the next 353 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 6: year's coming in. We'll see. But back to your point. 354 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 6: My thing is what I'm thinking with Arkansas, the team 355 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 6: cohesion and that locker room is not getting along. 356 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 2: And that stands to reason. If all of a sudden 357 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 2: you just throw a bunch of new guys into a 358 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 2: blender every year and say get along, you don't really 359 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 2: have time to yeah, speak to that as a coach, 360 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 2: which is another byproduct of how difficult this is. It's 361 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: not get her a fantasy football team. 362 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 8: No, it's not. 363 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 6: And I just literally a few hours ago, had a 364 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 6: conversation with this about this with a friend of mine 365 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 6: about you know, you hear about the family, not basketball 366 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,239 Speaker 6: families in general dynamics and when they break apart and 367 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 6: they decide to air their laundry, about the inner turmoils 368 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 6: of a family, and then it spreads, and all of 369 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 6: a sudden it breaks apart a family and brothers and 370 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 6: sisters and nieces and nephews and parents and their children 371 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 6: they don't talk to each other because all this dirty 372 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 6: laundry has been exposed and breaks apart and inner portion, 373 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 6: the chemistry of a family. In a locker room, you're 374 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 6: going to have problems, You're going to have drama, you're 375 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 6: going to have guys that don't get along, you have 376 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 6: guys coming from different walks of life, from different parts 377 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 6: of the country, and you have to keep that inner 378 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 6: turmoil inside the locker room. If it airs itself on 379 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 6: a basketball court in front of thousands of people on television. 380 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 6: With media these days and social media, you're not just 381 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 6: going to get exposed a little bit. You're going to 382 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 6: get blown wide open, and any little thing's going to 383 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 6: get exaggerated into social media these days. So if you 384 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 6: can't keep your inner turmoil inside a locker room, you're 385 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 6: going to be facing some scrutiny. And as soon as 386 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 6: these players feel like they're getting exposed, they're going to 387 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 6: take off and walk. 388 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 2: And that statement, that insightful statement, perfectly segues in depart 389 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 2: three of our conversation, because a college coach of all sports, 390 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 2: particularly basketball, wears a lot of hats, including surrog and 391 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 2: father and team psychologists and keeping these locker rooms together. 392 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,399 Speaker 2: And in the last four years, we've seen Mike Kozhevski 393 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 2: Tony Bennett, Roy Williams, Jim Behon, Cliff l Elis, even 394 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 2: Tara Vanderveer just most recently Jim Laerneger right out of 395 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 2: left field. And I know most of these guys don't 396 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 2: want to really speak on the record, but Tony Bennett, 397 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 2: one of the nicest guys ever, basically said he's uncertain 398 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 2: he can tolerate the changing sport he loves. What do 399 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 2: you think specifically he was alluding to there. 400 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 6: Very easy that you know, the universe of Virginia is 401 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 6: not going to change their academic standards, nor are they 402 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 6: going to get into a bidding game for NIL to 403 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 6: get kids that come to their school. And I think 404 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 6: Jay writes all the writing on the wall when he 405 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 6: walked a few years ago that Villanova. 406 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: Was going to be in the same aspect. 407 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 6: The landscape for college basketball recruiting was changing, and it 408 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 6: was going to get into this free agent market that 409 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 6: everybody talks about at NIL and Villanova and somebody like 410 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 6: Virginia is not going to be able to compete with 411 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 6: the big boys and the blue bloods that have these 412 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 6: backings and have NIL money that they can go and 413 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 6: pretty much buy players and to coach Bennett. You know, 414 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 6: his statement was spot on, and I think a lot 415 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 6: of us as coaches and people that have been in 416 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 6: the business for a long time don't like what's happening. 417 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 6: We understand and why it is, but it's happening. It's 418 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 6: not happening for the right reasons. It's now becoming this 419 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 6: amateur slash professional slash whatever you want to call it, 420 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 6: that this college basketball landscape is. And Tony Benner was 421 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 6: just saying, Hey, I don't like where college basketball is going. 422 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 6: I'm not going to be buying players and even said 423 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 6: a couple of times the University of Virginia is not 424 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 6: going to change their academic standards, and that says, right 425 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,360 Speaker 6: on the bottom line, we're not going to go buy players. 426 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 2: Talk with Tommy Connolly, former college basketball coach, scout director, 427 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 2: recruiting analyst. So last March, between March and May, over 428 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 2: a forty five day period, over two thousand college basketball 429 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 2: players entered the transfer portal. That set a new record 430 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 2: all those This is new, so they're going to keep 431 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 2: setting records. Do you believe that number will continue to 432 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 2: grow or is it going to start to level off 433 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 2: at some point? What are your thoughts. 434 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 6: I think it's going to level off for a couple 435 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 6: of reasons, and I want to touch point on the 436 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 6: number because I think there's the numbers are going to 437 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 6: be what they are, the number of people that go 438 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 6: into the portal. Here's the number I've always wanted to 439 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 6: know about the transfer portal, Bernie, and that's this. How 440 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 6: many guys in any sport, football, basketball, baseball, you name 441 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 6: it put their name into the portal and didn't play 442 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 6: or have no record or stats from the school a 443 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 6: they were at, But because they didn't play or didn't 444 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 6: like the coach, they put their name in the portal 445 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 6: thinking somebody else is going to grab them when they 446 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 6: have no stats or very little playing time at all. 447 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 6: I'd like to know what that number is, and then 448 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 6: what is the number left over the number of guys 449 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 6: that are in the portal that have significant numbers and 450 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 6: stats that it could be looked at from another school. 451 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 6: To touch on that question, I think it's going to 452 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 6: slow down because now we have the extra year of 453 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 6: COVID year is going to be gone, So I think 454 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 6: you're going to slowly see that transfer portal numbers slow 455 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 6: down a little bit. The other thing I keep hearing 456 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 6: is that there are talks about apostible NC DOUBLEA commissioner. 457 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 6: And if so, then I think you're gonna start seeing 458 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 6: implementations of you know, now you hear guys have transferred 459 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 6: twice or three times, they're waiting for the NC DOUBLEA 460 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 6: to give them the approval if they can play or not. 461 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 6: I think we may see something going back to a 462 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 6: limit of how many times you can transfer. And I 463 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 6: wouldn't be surprised if the NC double A, if a 464 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 6: commissioner comes in says say right now, it's the one 465 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 6: time transfer rule, immediately eligible, but maybe after you transfer, 466 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 6: Once you transfer a second time, you sit a year 467 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 6: and you lose an elogie years of eligibility that we 468 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 6: had years ago. I think if that got implemented, then 469 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 6: you really start to see the portal slow down. 470 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 2: Well that's a great point, and that Jim Harble actually 471 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 2: suggested that when you still in Michigan three years ago, 472 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 2: and there needs to be some guardrails, and why your 473 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,679 Speaker 2: premise makes a hell of a lot of sense. I 474 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 2: just have this sneaking suspicion that's going to be a 475 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 2: tough nut to crack, because this player empowerment is here 476 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,679 Speaker 2: to stay. You mentioned something guys entering the transfer portal 477 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 2: that don't really have necessarily a resume to speak of. 478 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 2: How about one step further, Tommy, how about guys who 479 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 2: went to the transfer portal who really don't know if 480 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 2: they want to transfer or not. They just figure they 481 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 2: dip their toe in the water and if somebody comes 482 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 2: along with more money, and what the hell, it's the 483 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 2: cya thing I know that's happened in football. Maybe they 484 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 2: pull their name back out if it turns out they're 485 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 2: good where they're at, or they're trying to hedge their 486 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 2: bets or try to leverage their limited time on college 487 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 2: to even more money somewhere else. Do you see that 488 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 2: as part of gamesmanship in the transfer portal in college basketball? 489 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 6: I do. And here's the thing with my thoughts on this. 490 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 6: And I know there are some coaches out there that 491 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 6: if a guy comes in and says, coach, I don't 492 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 6: think it's working here, I need to make more money 493 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 6: for my family or whatever it is, I'm going to 494 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 6: put my name. 495 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 8: In the portal. 496 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 6: And they dip that toe in the portal and they're 497 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,679 Speaker 6: not getting what they want, and then they want to 498 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 6: come back to the coach that they just left and say, 499 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 6: you know what, coach, I changed my mind. I think 500 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 6: I want to come back. I know there's coaches out 501 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 6: there to be going. I've already filled your spot. The 502 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 6: second you tell me you're leaving, I'm looking to feel it. 503 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 9: I'm not waiting to see if you're. 504 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 6: Going to come back or not. And I think there's 505 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 6: coaches out there will go. I don't want him back. 506 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 6: If he wasn't happy here the first time, what's going 507 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 6: to make him stay another years? He's going to be 508 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 6: looking for the first thing out. And the other thing 509 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 6: that I think is going to make a little bit 510 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 6: of a difference here is the NCAA has implemented, you know, 511 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 6: starting here in twenty five, there's no more national letter 512 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 6: of Intent, So there's no binding agreement that's going to 513 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 6: keep these kids at well. All they're getting when they 514 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 6: go is going to be some sort of a financial 515 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 6: agreement scholarship paper that they're going to put their signature 516 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 6: on that says I agree to these terms of this 517 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 6: kind of money. But there's no national leutter of intent, 518 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 6: so they can walk out the door anytime they want 519 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 6: because there's no binding agreement that says I'm going to 520 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 6: attend school A for the school year. So you might 521 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 6: see guys leaving school, leaving sports a lot earlier than 522 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 6: we have and already going forward because they don't like 523 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 6: what a coach said, how a practice win, or they 524 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 6: got benched, or they were late for practice and they 525 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 6: didn't get to start. They might just go a lot 526 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 6: out of here. So I'm waiting to see how this 527 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 6: plays out. 528 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 2: One last thing, and what I'd like to do, Tommy, 529 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 2: is when March rolls around and the brackets are out, 530 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 2: get your thoughts. While we were talking, I got a 531 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: tweet for one of my listeners, Dan Rivera, who listened 532 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 2: to BYU Kansas State of the schools who've been extremely 533 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 2: active in the transfer portal. You mentioned something just kind 534 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 2: of off the cuff the last time we talked about 535 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 2: you think one of the next things we might see 536 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 2: are players start a season, they look at the landscape, 537 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 2: they get four or five games in, they realize, well, 538 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 2: I'm not in the rotation where I want to be here. 539 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 2: This isn't what I hope. They just jump ship right 540 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 2: there and start preparing for the next team in the portal, 541 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,479 Speaker 2: which could even wreak more havoc because again, a lot 542 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: of players only care about themselves. Do you anticipate that 543 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 2: being the next I mean, MaTx Luca did it here 544 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 2: at UNLV after they started out three and other quarterback 545 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 2: not trying to call him out, but facts as facts, 546 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 2: you believe that'll be the next wave of player emparlent 547 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 2: powerment vs V. Transfer portal in college basketball. 548 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 6: I really do, Especially now without Nash letter of intent, 549 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 6: I can see guys jumping ship. 550 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 8: Real quick now. 551 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 6: They're going to have a real quick trigger based on 552 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 6: because let's face it, when you're being recruited to a school, 553 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,719 Speaker 6: the coach is gonna wind you and dine you and 554 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 6: sell you and why you should come play for their program, 555 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 6: and they're going to buy into everything. They're going to 556 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 6: get there, and they're in their head. 557 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 9: Going this is all going to come true. 558 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 6: And as soon as one of those things don't come true, 559 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 6: instead of having an adult conversation with the coach and 560 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 6: sitting down face to face and working it out as 561 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 6: a young adult to another adult, and if they're in 562 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 6: their twenties, then an adult to a coach and say, coach, 563 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 6: you said this, but I'm not getting this back. That 564 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 6: conversation is not going to happen, Bernie. They're just going 565 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 6: to go, I'm out of here and leave because now 566 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 6: it's too easy to leave and jump you and put 567 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 6: your name in the portal. And coaches in players I 568 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 6: don't think are having the conversations that we used to 569 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,719 Speaker 6: have in the past about trying to help a kid 570 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 6: and change a kid, and change the personalities and change 571 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:05,479 Speaker 6: some dynamics to make it best for everybody. Nowadays, they 572 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 6: won't even talk. They just jump on their phone and go, 573 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 6: I'm in the portal, I'm leaving, And sometimes coaches don't 574 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,479 Speaker 6: even know the kids have gone. 575 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 10: Yeah. 576 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 2: He covered a lot of really good ground and it's 577 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 2: all true, great stuff.

We'll talk about 580 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 2: some things happening between the lines, but you certainly chronicle 581 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: the reality at college basketball in twenty twenty five. And 582 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: that last part is the real lament of tom Izzo, 583 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 2: whose greatest strength has been helping kids overcome. 584 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 6: You know, agree, agree ye. 585 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 2: Great stuff, Tommy, outstanding and we'll talk soon. 586 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 6: Pale, all right, take care, you have a good one. 587 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 2: Thanks.

This may be one of our 598 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 2: most raucous midnight hours because I'm looking for some real 599 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 2: disagreement on a couple of the topics. Remember what I 600 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 2: said in my opening monologue about the allegations in the 601 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 2: group think echo chamber and the accusations regarding the chiefs. Well, 602 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 2: the brother of a famous referee weighed in, and this 603 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 2: is real crazy talk.

I don't subscribe to the 618 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 2: loser's lament chiefs haters who think the refs got it 619 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 2: in for him. But when when people get something in 620 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 2: their mind, Okay, for the most part, you're gonna it's 621 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 2: gonna take a pickaxe to get it out of it, 622 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 2: and it's probably still gonna work. When some convinced of something, 623 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 2: they're convinced to something. And yes, there are people who 624 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 2: are convinced the NFL is rigged. By the way a 625 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 2: renowned referee retired. Who now you see him on the 626 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 2: NFL broadcasts, Dean Blandino. Apparently his brother is quote convinced, 627 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 2: convinced that the league is rigged. All right, this is 628 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 2: how bad it's gotten. You're talking about the brother of 629 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 2: a highly respected Fox rules analyst, former NFL senior VP 630 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 2: of officiating, the man from whom current replay system was 631 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 2: designed and developed. He's got a brother who is wearing 632 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 2: the tinfoil hat, who thinks the league is rigged? Now 633 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 2: for their record? Do I know? Hell no, but some 634 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 2: people do.

We may spend out of control tonight. 637 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 2: I guarantee you I'm good in at least one call. 638 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 2: The league wants the Chiefs to win. The league wanted 639 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 2: the Patriots to win. The league likes Brady and belongs 640 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 2: with It's all about the refs, right, Okay, that's topic 641 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 2: number one. Definitely want to hear what you got to 642 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 2: say about that. The coaching carousel is basically complete.

How do you feel about Ben Johnson? 648 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 2: How do you feel about Aaron Glenn in New York? 649 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 2: Which just jumps out at you as to Yeah, that 650 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 2: one's gonna work, that one's got no chance. You get 651 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 2: the picture right, which leads us into our third subject. 652 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 2: Because these things never go away, it's not too soon 653 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 2: to start looking ahead and asking yourself which NFL coaches 654 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 2: are on the hot seat for twenty twenty five, for 655 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:14,919 Speaker 2: the season even starts. I'll tell you what. I'll lead 656 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 2: the witness here on this one. I'll tease this one 657 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 2: a little bit. As much as I like him and 658 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 2: respect him, how could it not be Brian Dable? He 659 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 2: won nine games in twenty twenty two, fell to six 660 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 2: and twenty three, and what they won three games in 661 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four or something like that. The Giants now 662 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,319 Speaker 2: need a fresh start at quarterback, and I think they 663 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 2: might need a fresh start in the coaching staff. It's 664 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 2: been an anemic performance all the way around. Brian Dables, 665 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 2: respected as a football guy, and deserves a lot of 666 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 2: credit for helping Josh Allen early in his career. If 667 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 2: he's not on the hot seat, I don't know who 668 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 2: the hell is. Well, maybe Shane Steichen of the Indianapolis Colts. 669 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 2: You know, he's got no real future there with Anthony 670 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: Richards and you can think he does. They've made no 671 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 2: real strides provement right. There was talk that they would 672 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 2: bail on Shane Steichen after a second year. They didn't. 673 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 2: They did on Antonio. Appears I have to wonder, honestly 674 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 2: if Zach Taylor might be they let Vic Fanny. You know, look, 675 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 2: I'm not going to ask an answer. I want to 676 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 2: hear from you folks, souse. So question number one, do you, 677 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 2: honestly do you think the NFL is rigged? It's incredible 678 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 2: what we're seeing from in pro football talk from Dean 679 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 2: Blambdino's brother. Again, I don't, but he does not Dean 680 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,240 Speaker 2: Blandino's brother. The coaching carousel, you see all the new hires, 681 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 2: Which do you like, which don't you like? Which you 682 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 2: think of work? Which don't you think of work? The 683 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 2: third is, let's look ahead, which coach is on the 684 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 2: hot seat already before next year even starts the NFL 685 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 2: and the fourth one, I had to add it. They 686 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 2: made you had to what the hell are we really 687 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 2: doing with Bronnie James Now? They put him on the 688 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 2: floor for fifteen minutes in Washington or checked at in Philadelphia. 689 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 2: Tyrese Maxi rode him like a stick horse, completely overwhelmed, 690 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 2: completely overmatched. It's not funny anymore. Then Bronnie gets to 691 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 2: play again on Thursday night and a forty point Lakers win. 692 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,240 Speaker 2: They put him in in mop up time, or whatever 693 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 2: the hell you want to call it. It's like when 694 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 2: you go to the varsity basketball game and you watch 695 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 2: the JV team and then the varsity game starts. They're 696 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 2: up by forty. It's the final day of the year, 697 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 2: and the student manager, who everybody loves, says, put him in. 698 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,439 Speaker 2: They put him in and he dribbles it all around 699 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: and I was going shoot, shoot, shooting. What the hell? 700 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 2: He launches a twenty eight footer and banks off the 701 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 2: rim and the backboard goes up and hits a rafter 702 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 2: and drops through the bucket. Everybody goes bananas. They Cole 703 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 2: and Bronnie MVP and they went bananas. They're making fun 704 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 2: of him. No, I don't condone that either. Okay, I've 705 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,760 Speaker 2: never once met made fun of Brownie.

You should be 735 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 7: in the Hall of Fame. Okay, no doubt about it. 736 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 7: You've got more topics than I've heard in a lot 737 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,120 Speaker 7: of weeks from you, So you might have to walk 738 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 7: me through it. First of all, the NFL is not rigged. 739 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 7: That's absolutely ridiculous. The Kansas City conspiracy is. 740 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 8: Just ludicrous. 741 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:50,879 Speaker 7: Okay. Patrick Mahomes is the best young quarterback I've ever 742 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 7: seen in my life. I'm sixty plus years. Eventually he's 743 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 7: going to if it keeps on going, he's going to 744 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 7: take break. He's all right. The well, ahall of the curve, 745 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 7: it's just ridiculous. And everybody's got a jerk brother uh 746 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 7: uh uh in the league. 747 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 2: I mean, homes. 748 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 7: Don't get condemned by your family. Everybody's got crazy relative 749 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 7: all right, Bronnie James, I blame all this on lebron 750 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 7: lebron is going to ruin his legacy by pushing this 751 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,240 Speaker 7: boy way past. He knew early. 752 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 11: I think Bryce is going to be the one. 753 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 7: I think Bryce is going to be the one. But 754 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:37,239 Speaker 7: but Bronnie, he did everything right. I think he just 755 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:40,360 Speaker 7: pushed him. It's sad, it really is. He needs to 756 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 7: have a you know, he needs to have a father 757 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 7: son conversation and set him down. There's no that's no shame. 758 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 7: You know what I mean. Go go go run your 759 00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,359 Speaker 7: daddy's corporation, Jesus Christ, and you know what. 760 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 2: Hang on there, Mark, this is really solid stuff. I 761 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 2: just won't say one thing. I was okay when he 762 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 2: wanted to play with this on they had this manufacturer event, 763 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 2: they made the history. Fine, but why are they trying 764 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 2: to continue to sell us that this guy is really 765 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 2: a legitimate NBA prospect. I I've seen enough, have you? 766 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 7: Of course, we've seen enough. Everybody saw enough. It's it's indisputable. 767 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 7: It's never I blame again. I'm gonna say I blame Lebron. 768 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 7: He knows he's using his pressure. Lebron to me is 769 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 7: the second greatest player ever in basketball. Okay. I remember 770 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 7: him on Sports Illustrated when when when he was called 771 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 7: the chosen the one I said, three, yep, I remember, 772 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 7: you know, I remember that, and he's lived up to it. 773 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 7: And Lebron is the greatest basketball player at forty years 774 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 7: old I've ever seen in my life. And he's probably 775 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 7: the greatest athlete. But being an athlete doesn't mean you 776 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 7: the best player, because he ain't. Michael Jordan, I don't 777 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 7: even want to hear the debate. But that's not the point. 778 00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,359 Speaker 7: All I'm saying is, you know, it's it's you're not 779 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 7: your daddy. I mean, it's not you don't even need 780 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 7: to play like you that just run the millions, man, 781 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 7: just you know. And I think it's a shame, and 782 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 7: I think it's going to reflect on Lebron, its favoritism, 783 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,359 Speaker 7: and it's nepotism at its worst, and it's getting out 784 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 7: of hand. Okay, that boy don't need to play no more. 785 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,880 Speaker 7: I think the youngest son has ability Okay, but Bronnie, Okay, 786 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:23,280 Speaker 7: you gave. 787 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:23,719 Speaker 8: It a good try. 788 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 7: It's no you know, just sit down now. As far 789 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:31,439 Speaker 7: as the coaching highs the Dallas Cowboys, I'm a Redskins fan. 790 00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:34,319 Speaker 7: I refuse to calling the commanders. That's two corporate for me. 791 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:35,240 Speaker 8: Okay. 792 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 7: I saw all four Super Bowls. I go back with 793 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 7: Billy Killen and Sonny Jerkson. Now, okay, and eventually that 794 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 7: name's gonna change. Okay, So anyway, that's not navigator there. 795 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 7: The two best coaching highs were the Detroit Lions defensive 796 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 7: and offensive coordinator. Those guys are solid. The worst one 797 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 7: was the bron Gotten Heimer thing. Wasn't nobody looking for 798 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 7: Brian shotting Heimer? He didn't get a call nowhere. Jerry's 799 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 7: gonna run that into the ground. Okay, he's already doing it. 800 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 7: And I'm happy to say that because I'm a Redskin fan, 801 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 7: so you know, I'm I'm I'm happy to heap all 802 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 7: the turmoil on the Cowboys. Okay, I forgot your other topic. 803 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 3: What was you real? 804 00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 2: Quickly?

I think 808 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 2: it's gotta be Brian Davil Shane Steiking. Right, that's all 809 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:33,879 Speaker 2: those are my two. 810 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 7: Quickies love Dabel. It's not Dabel's fault. Let me tell 811 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 7: you something.

Don't be 843 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 2: a strange Paul in North Carolina. You're up next. 844 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 12: Hey, good evening, Bernie. Hey, let me be the first 845 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 12: to wish you happy February. Said man, let me start 846 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 12: with your topics. First of all, is the NFL rigged? 847 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 8: Bernie? 848 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 12: You're talking to a huge Buffalo Bills fan. I eat 849 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 12: seed and breath Buffalo Hill football, and I'm ready to 850 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:23,360 Speaker 12: tell you hell no, the league is not rigged. Busfalo 851 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 12: did not play well enough, as you highlighted to win 852 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,759 Speaker 12: the game. If you played down to where you let 853 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 12: the officials decide a game, you didn't play well enough 854 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 12: to win. The officials making calls that didn't go our way. Sure, 855 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 12: but you know what, Bernie, were probably fifteen more mysed 856 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 12: or failed plays and poor coaching decisions that Buffalo made 857 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,239 Speaker 12: to lost the game, not the referees. And until you 858 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:48,320 Speaker 12: have your two biggest markets, then New York Giants and 859 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 12: the New York Jets absolutely being terrible, and the Dallas 860 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,839 Speaker 12: Cowboys being terrible when the San Francisco forty nine ers injured, 861 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 12: of course, but until those guys start making the playoffs 862 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 12: every year, you can't say the league is rigged. 863 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 3: The league was rigged. 864 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 12: That's those guys aren't going to suck. 865 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:05,800 Speaker 2: Well, I said it better myself, but you are aware 866 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 2: of what's blowing in the wind out there when it's 867 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 2: being written about by Mike Florio and Dean Billandino's brother 868 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,399 Speaker 2: and a great call by Mark. Everybody's got a goofyr brother. 869 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 2: It's out there. I had to address it, but you're 870 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 2: starting on anything else. 871 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 12: And again, yeah, but again, I'm a digger, bills him, 872 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:22,840 Speaker 12: and you can't say the league is rigged. 873 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 3: To me. 874 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:27,800 Speaker 12: The best coaching higher in the cycle was Pete Carroll, 875 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 12: who knows how long he's going to be there, but 876 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 12: he's just going to come in and study the ship. 877 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,719 Speaker 12: The raiders are all over the place, and I think 878 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,920 Speaker 12: that's more than anything. Until you get stability, until you 879 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 12: get somebody in there with some common sense, you're not 880 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 12: going to be successful. So I think he's going to 881 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 12: come in study the waters, you know, be a great 882 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 12: bridge candidate for the coach is on the hot seat. 883 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 12: But got me get back to my Buffalo Bills. I 884 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 12: think he's got to be Sean McDermott. 885 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 2: He might be, he might be. 886 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 12: Listen, he's done a hell of a job and from 887 00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:57,919 Speaker 12: what he took over to where the Bills are now 888 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 12: absolutely fantastic. But eventually, Bernie, you've got to have somebody 889 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 12: in there that's going to take you to the next step. 890 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 12: And it's kind of the Marty Schottenheimer. You know, you 891 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:08,879 Speaker 12: keep winning, you keep winning, you keep winning, but you're 892 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 12: not getting to the to the to the top. And 893 00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 12: there's every time, every game, there's always some decisions that 894 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,880 Speaker 12: you can circle with like Toron mcgermott, what the hell 895 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 12: were you doing? You alluded to James Cook not touching 896 00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 12: the ball. Yeah, butage six areas of carriage and. 897 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 2: They got what the hell happened? What was that about? Right? 898 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 12: And something that very few people are talking about Bernie. 899 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 12: Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs each scored four 900 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 12: touchdowns to take the one field goal, and Buffalo lost 901 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,920 Speaker 12: by three. Why because you started chasing points early, you 902 00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 12: took up I. 903 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 2: Was going to talk about that in my opening mindlogue. 904 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,800 Speaker 2: Why the hell are you going for two twice in failing? 905 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:41,800 Speaker 2: You're right, all excellent. 906 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:45,320 Speaker 12: Points, So so I think again, Bernie, Sean mcdermot's on 907 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 12: the hell of a job. So you know, if he 908 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 12: doesn't win a Super Bowl will always be on air. 909 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 12: Quotes of Bill's legend quickly. 910 00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 2: Paul, just a few seconds. Do you carry a weigh 911 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 2: it on? Brownie? 912 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 12: James, Bernie, I've got nothing more to add. It's it's 913 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 12: you know, it's it is what it is, and I 914 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:02,879 Speaker 12: don't think it's anything. 915 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:03,279 Speaker 3: Wasn't that? 916 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: Thanks a lot, Paul, appreciate you. Jim in Massachusetts, how 917 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 2: are you doing, buddy? What's going on tonight? 918 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 8: And what's going on? Bernie? 919 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 9: Yes, it is rigg Let's face facts. There's so much 920 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:18,479 Speaker 9: money involved with gambling and everything in the NFL's court 921 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 9: is rigged. Just look back at the tuck rule with Brady. 922 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:25,279 Speaker 9: If that wasn't the Raiders, any other team that was 923 00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 9: a fumble, all right. They missed a call down the 924 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 9: super Dome in the playoffs on the corner cliff pass interfearence. 925 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 9: They didn't throw a flag, even the immaculate conception. They 926 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 9: didn't have replayback then, but the rule was it hit 927 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 9: the guy, you're not supposed to be able to. 928 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:41,680 Speaker 8: Get it and go in. They did. 929 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 9: So, you know, when there's so much money involved and 930 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 9: all this type of stuff, of course there's the issues 931 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 9: going on there. 932 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 2: You know. It's ironically, of all the people that I 933 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 2: thought and that might imply that it is rigg you 934 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 2: would have been the last one. But I was back 935 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:00,840 Speaker 2: to your opinion. 936 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,839 Speaker 9: Respect I rep for thirty years, not on that level. 937 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 9: But you cannot discount egos and people in positions and 938 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,320 Speaker 9: power and everything. It should be decided by the players. 939 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 9: But you know, people human, You get under somebody's skin 940 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 9: even though they're out there and strike. Sure it's over. 941 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 9: You know, you can't control stuff like that. But then 942 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 9: then all the stuff behind the scenes and everything, it's 943 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 9: just it's gotten too out of here, you know. 944 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 2: All right, Well, you were part of the your your 945 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 2: your team, the New England page that you're part of 946 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:40,560 Speaker 2: the coaching carousel this year. Is Mike Vrabel on the 947 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 2: top of your list? 948 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,839 Speaker 9: Is one of these riper Let's start with I'm not 949 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,879 Speaker 9: a New England Patriots fan. My team's New York Giants. 950 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:49,800 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's get I could watch. 951 00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 9: A black and white TV all right. 952 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:53,800 Speaker 2: Is Brian Dable on the hot seat? 953 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 7: Of course? 954 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:57,759 Speaker 2: And Mark brought up a great point. He might not 955 00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 2: be his faully, don't have a quarterback when he's been regressing. 956 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 2: Go ahead, you got the you got the floor. 957 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, No, he's gone. You know, you know everything is 958 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 9: about is about winning. You know, you can have a 959 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 9: guy there and in trouble all the time, got stuff 960 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 9: going on as long as you're winning. Knowing kids all 961 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 9: about winning. So yeah, he's gone. I hope they get 962 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:22,520 Speaker 9: secure and try to get back on. 963 00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 3: The right track. 964 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 9: I think they need a new general manager or anything. 965 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,439 Speaker 9: I think the guy that's going to do the best 966 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 9: is Pete Carroll because he's a class stack, he's character. 967 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,440 Speaker 3: And you remember, yeah, you gotta remember his career. 968 00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 7: He was run out of New England. 969 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,200 Speaker 9: Oh man, when he coached to England. 970 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 2: I remember that very well. 971 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 9: Oh it was brutal. You think the guy in New 972 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:43,560 Speaker 9: York's on the fire. 973 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 3: You should have seen that. 974 00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 2: Listen. He was hard at USC. The headlines were not grady. 975 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 2: He was their fourth choice at USC.

And I don't think 990 00:52:37,360 --> 00:52:38,560 Speaker 9: the other players like it either. 991 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 2: You start, I'm starting to wonder, Thanks, Jim. As always, Look, 992 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 2: it was fine an opening night when they wanted to 993 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 2: get Bronnie on the floor and create history, but there 994 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:54,280 Speaker 2: feels like they're force feeding a false Kyle Jean, Butch, 995 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 2: Max Poppy, Butch and Jeremy, this is awesome.

Let's start off with Bernie James. Okay, 1014 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 10: that's a man in the NBA right now by the 1015 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:03,720 Speaker 10: name of Michaeljeffrey Jordan who had two sons that both 1016 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 10: failed at basketball. Okay, Marcus Williams, and I'm sorry Marcus 1017 00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 10: Jordan and his brother Jeffrey, who are absolutely horrible. They're good, 1018 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 10: but they're good college basketball players, average minimal. But you 1019 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:23,440 Speaker 10: have Bronnie James. Out of twenty three thousand rookie NBA 1020 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:29,320 Speaker 10: players that ever grace that court, he is six point 1021 00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 10: three percent. He's in the bottom of the bottom of 1022 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 10: the bottom. 1023 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:37,319 Speaker 8: Of the barrel. Okay, he runs. 1024 00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 10: Twenty by twenty two, nine hundred and ninety seven of 1025 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:46,399 Speaker 10: all time, Brookies. That's horrible, lebron talk to you boy 1026 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 10: pulling out the game. Do something different, have him do 1027 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 10: something different. It's not going to be the same for 1028 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 10: Bryce either. I'm sorry. The hype is way too much. 1029 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,799 Speaker 10: They're over hyping them. They're playing it out there. You 1030 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,799 Speaker 10: have other kids with the last name Julia who have 1031 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 10: no father that's ever played the NBA that are better 1032 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:07,839 Speaker 10: than this young nun. 1033 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 2: You're not wrong, You're not wrong. I mean, it's yeah, 1034 00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:14,759 Speaker 2: let's get to this NFL rig thing. 1035 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 10: Kyle, Now, I'm going with that. 1036 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 3: Next, I'm going with that next. 1037 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 10: I think it's fifty to fifty. People got to remember 1038 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 10: referees have scouting reports on players too. They do their 1039 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 10: job just like every other player in those leagues, whether 1040 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 10: it's football, basketball, or whatever it may be. In the 1041 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 10: chief case, yeah, they watch out for more defensive plays. 1042 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 10: They might look at Mahomes as the poster boy, the 1043 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 10: poster child of the face of the league, and they're 1044 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 10: gonna do whatever they can to protect him. Now, at 1045 00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 10: the same token, players have always said, and I play, 1046 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 10: you know, college ball myself, players have always said, in 1047 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 10: order to not let the rest dictate the outcome of 1048 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 10: the game, we have to be up by so much 1049 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:04,400 Speaker 10: much so instead of worrying and concentrating about what they're doing, 1050 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 10: let's focus on our game and play our game now. 1051 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:12,759 Speaker 10: Buffalo should have realized the same mistakes that they made. 1052 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 10: They're probably kicking themselves in the bucks right now, because 1053 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,279 Speaker 10: had the Ravens converted their two two point conversions that 1054 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 10: they failed on, they would have beat Buffalo. So hands down, 1055 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,759 Speaker 10: you have to history repeated itself and you did the 1056 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,640 Speaker 10: same thing. Don't let the referees dictate the outcome of 1057 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 10: the game. 1058 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 2: Four times now, Kyle, four times now, Buffalo is gone in. 1059 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 10: They're gonna stack up on the fourth and ones. They're 1060 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,000 Speaker 10: gonna they're gonna cover the A gaps, are gonna cover 1061 00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 10: those gaps that Josh Allen likes to get to. And 1062 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 10: you went for three different times and failed and even 1063 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:51,439 Speaker 10: let the refs fail you on one, regardless of what 1064 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 10: the case may have been. Now I got one better 1065 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,520 Speaker 10: for you. The best hire you know is the Chicago Bears, 1066 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:02,320 Speaker 10: who hands down, that's the best higher where I'm optimistic. 1067 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:06,800 Speaker 10: I'm not overly optimistic. We're gonna be fine, I believe. 1068 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,160 Speaker 10: Give him a year, you know, a good, a good, 1069 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:13,239 Speaker 10: solid year. He's gonna get ot as in, he's gonna 1070 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 10: work and develop Caleb Williams. I'm happy to see that. 1071 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 8: The weirdest hire. 1072 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 10: And you know I got to bring this up. How 1073 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 10: did Matt Eberflus get another job? 1074 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 3: So? 1075 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 10: I mean Dallas was gonna have four time outs this year? 1076 00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? They were good. That's your calling card every week. Look, 1077 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 2: I was mainly sticking with head coaches. But you're not wrong. 1078 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 2: And you know why this happens because people have a 1079 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 2: tendency to hire who they know. But but the point 1080 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 2: that I was making, I'm. 1081 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 10: Who was who was Shottenheimer. Nobody was lining up for 1082 00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,600 Speaker 10: this doom. Nobody was looking for him. 1083 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 7: Nobody was like. 1084 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 10: Oh my gosh, we gotta go get Shotenheimer first. Let's 1085 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 10: go get him number one overall, Jerry, what are you doing? 1086 00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 10: You're running your organization into the ground instead of America's team. 1087 00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 10: It's going to be America's dumpster fire here in a minute, 1088 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,480 Speaker 10: you know. And every time that I think of them now, 1089 00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 10: I just remember too going to the middle of a 1090 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 10: field and doing that Jesus Christ posed, And just that's 1091 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,480 Speaker 10: how bad your team is right now. You're letting people 1092 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 10: come into your home, your don't and basically disrespect your organization, 1093 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,920 Speaker 10: whether it be your own players, whether it be you yourself, 1094 00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 10: whether it be your kids not telling you, hey, Dad, 1095 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 10: you probably need to step aside. Let us run this, 1096 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 10: let us get this thing back into the right course, 1097 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:41,240 Speaker 10: because what you're doing is going to cost us for 1098 00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 10: not just these next three four seasons, this might hurt 1099 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 10: us indefinitely.

No question about it. But that's a 1122 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 8: coaching decision. But I still think that's I don't know, 1123 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 8: being the lights, being the lights in New Orleans going 1124 01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 8: out all that kind of jazz. 1125 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:17,080 Speaker 2: Uh, well, it's certainly have been. I got there's certainly 1126 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:21,240 Speaker 2: been some eyebrow raising events in the past, you know, 1127 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 2: fifty years in the NFL. But the team that they're 1128 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,000 Speaker 2: playing has to be good enough to take advantage of it, right, 1129 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 2: Do you have anything on Ronnie James tonight, Geene? 1130 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:36,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, you asking me just being just been a basketball 1131 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:38,240 Speaker 8: fan of just a fan of sports period, and that 1132 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 8: team to look at this kid and say he's ready, 1133 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 8: he's nowhere, and they're ready.

I I 1163 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,680 Speaker 2: have to really, I was always a huge drinking Waters fan. 1164 01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:05,880 Speaker 2: I was just thinking about that at the other day. 1165 01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 2: Thirty years ago, when they womped the Chargers forty nine 1166 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 2: to twenty seven, Ricky Wobbas was a one man highlight 1167 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:12,640 Speaker 2: film that day. 1168 01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 3: I know I'm a huge Niners fan, and I know 1169 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 3: he played for the Niners for very long, but I 1170 01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 3: mean he's got he's got over ten thousand yards and 1171 01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 3: only ten years he's got like seventy something touched. Anyway, 1172 01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 3: the next thing was again off topic, is Joe Montana, 1173 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 3: Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, Roger Stalbach, bess Ever, not sure 1174 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:36,920 Speaker 3: what order to put them in. 1175 01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 2: Well, they're clearly in the biggest games, on the biggest stages. 1176 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,680 Speaker 2: They shine the brightest. You can't that's undeniable. 1177 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:46,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then go back to what you're talking about. 1178 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:48,440 Speaker 3: The NFL is not rigged. 1179 01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 8: That's that's absolutely ridiculous. 1180 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 3: But I think I think it's use the same words 1181 01:02:55,360 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 3: as a couple of dollars ago, No way, it's that'd 1182 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 3: be that'd be too difficult. I do think though, because 1183 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 3: of all the sports talk about it that well, they 1184 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:14,200 Speaker 3: kind of do it all the time anyway. But you know, 1185 01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 3: the ref the referee is going to hold their flags 1186 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:19,480 Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl, and I like that. 1187 01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:22,800 Speaker 2: You know, let them play, Yeah, let them play as. 1188 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 3: Long as it's not a you know, a guy smashing 1189 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 3: his head and do another guy's head for concussion. Got 1190 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:34,000 Speaker 3: to let the holding go. Maybe you know, there'll be 1191 01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 3: some defensive holding flags as usual. But I mean, with 1192 01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 3: all this thing about the NFL being rigged. It's I 1193 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:48,040 Speaker 3: think it's gonna be a great game, and then uh, 1194 01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 3: Brownie sucks. 1195 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:54,000 Speaker 2: Oh god, that's left to be said. I I love 1196 01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 2: that you waited on all four. Got a few things 1197 01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 2: in there top to your own things. But for checking in, 1198 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:01,040 Speaker 2: don't need to be sure with you. I just want 1199 01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 2: to make sure I get to everybody. When you said, 1200 01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:05,320 Speaker 2: Bernie sex, that kind of says it all. It's by 1201 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 2: the way, we're kind of this is the one thing 1202 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:10,400 Speaker 2: where unanimous on tonight. No one's attacking Brownie personally. But 1203 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 2: this whole ordeal just is a defense to people's sensibilities. 1204 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 2: Get really good callers, really insightful. Max, North Carolina, you 1205 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 2: are at next. Where would you like to start? 1206 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 14: I Bernie Frano, second time caller, short time listener. I 1207 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 14: love this show, Bernie, Thank you do? I think the 1208 01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:39,120 Speaker 14: Napels rigged like a couple of callers before fifty to fifty, 1209 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 14: and I will put evidence of how I think it's rigged. 1210 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 14: Look at the in the Eagle Commander's game last week. Okay, 1211 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:52,680 Speaker 14: there was when Frankie Lubu, the linebacker jumped over the 1212 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:56,880 Speaker 14: over the thing. Oh yeah, said Okay, if Washington keep 1213 01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 14: does that we're going to give them the Eagles a touchdown? 1214 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:00,760 Speaker 7: How do that? 1215 01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:04,000 Speaker 2: Threw me for a loop, But I was completely unaware, 1216 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:06,920 Speaker 2: Yeah that the referees, could we award somebody at touchdown? 1217 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:07,440 Speaker 2: Continue on? 1218 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, the other one is okay from what I've heard, 1219 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:14,240 Speaker 14: I don't know how true it is. But look at 1220 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 14: the Super Bowl logos when the Chiefs and Eagles face 1221 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:21,080 Speaker 14: the first time, do you see a lot of green, 1222 01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 14: a little bit of red? And the Chiefs won? And 1223 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:26,640 Speaker 14: then last year, which was kind of weird. I don't 1224 01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:29,760 Speaker 14: understand that one. You saw a purple and red, which 1225 01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 14: is like okay, so it's Tony Ravens and Niners. No, 1226 01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,200 Speaker 14: they edfol flipped the script, which is like okay. And 1227 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 14: now this year it was a lot of red, a 1228 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,920 Speaker 14: little bit of green. So do I think Eagles could win? 1229 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 14: Yet on top of all that, there's more and the 1230 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 14: Eagles commander's game. 1231 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:50,080 Speaker 3: I don't know who it was. 1232 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:55,480 Speaker 14: It was an Eagle defendsimen poke, the tyler beyonda the 1233 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,600 Speaker 14: dinner and the eye rest did nothing about it, which was. 1234 01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 2: Like a kid Jaden, Yeah, go ahead, yeah, but it's 1235 01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 2: like a right kid out of Georgia. That was so weird. 1236 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:07,640 Speaker 8: I didn't know Stan. 1237 01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:11,760 Speaker 14: And then the other one when Marshall Lottimore was covering 1238 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 14: a J. 1239 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:12,560 Speaker 8: Brown. 1240 01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:15,600 Speaker 14: Lottimore didn't do anything. 1241 01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:16,440 Speaker 8: A J. 1242 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:20,560 Speaker 14: Brown kind of I think was either trash stock or something, 1243 01:06:21,040 --> 01:06:24,439 Speaker 14: and like Ladvog got the penalty. So that's a two 1244 01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 14: personal flagrant fouls that too gone to the Eagles. But 1245 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 14: I don't know. 1246 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:33,120 Speaker 2: Of course those are I saw it, and you maybe right, 1247 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 2: those are judgment calls. I thank you for checking in tonight, Max, 1248 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:41,440 Speaker 2: good stuff, and look, I'm amazed and I'm enjoying this. 1249 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,920 Speaker 2: We are getting disagreement. People know where I stand, but 1250 01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 2: I like to get people's thoughts. And the good thing 1251 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 2: about it is every caller, whether it's Max or Jane 1252 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:57,200 Speaker 2: or I forget who else, thought it was rigged Jim, 1253 01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 2: and they brought specific receipts so they feel the way 1254 01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 2: they feel based on what their rymes told them on 1255 01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:06,200 Speaker 2: the field. Because I covered the Lions for ten years 1256 01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,400 Speaker 2: and I just can't believe it. Maybe I don't want 1257 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:11,880 Speaker 2: to believe it. It's just too hard for me to 1258 01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:16,280 Speaker 2: believe it. But listen, the Midnight Hour is designed to 1259 01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:20,320 Speaker 2: have a forum, an amalgam of diverse thoughts and we're 1260 01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 2: getting that tonight.

Where do you want to start? Poppy? 1271 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 5: Hey, well, the first thing's on my mind. I wanted 1272 01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 5: to talk about the NFL rig. Of course, I believe 1273 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,680 Speaker 5: it's ragged. You know, I had the build last week. 1274 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 5: There were some tricky calls, you know, when one of 1275 01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 5: the reps, you know, when it went over the fourth 1276 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:16,719 Speaker 5: and money jumped over. One of the rep said, yeah, it's. 1277 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:20,160 Speaker 3: Good, yes, yes, yes. 1278 01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 5: I was like in the Drug Parddy Show, right like 1279 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:32,240 Speaker 5: Jepardy like while like to Menda Cars. Then I say, yeah, 1280 01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:33,320 Speaker 5: I remember. 1281 01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 2: That happened Poppy back in twenty twelve when they had 1282 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 2: the replacement reps on the Seattle touchdown on the end zone. 1283 01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:40,720 Speaker 2: One said it was a touchdown. One said, no, right, 1284 01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 2: it was embarrassing. That's a good pick. You picked that out, Poppy. 1285 01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:47,160 Speaker 2: Good once one signal yes, the other signal though, continue on. 1286 01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:51,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, So I do believe that, I mean that it's rigged. 1287 01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:54,040 Speaker 5: And just like just for that reason, talking about rig 1288 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 5: my prediction, I believe the Kansas City chief will win 1289 01:08:57,640 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 5: three in a row. And you know, I do the 1290 01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 5: I that count the city chiefs. 1291 01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 10: But I think a big. 1292 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 5: Great Tom Brady deserves the Patriots deserve to win three 1293 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:08,160 Speaker 5: in the row. Like he's the greatest of all time 1294 01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:10,639 Speaker 5: in my opinion.

All right, let's get 1371 01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:42,960 Speaker 2: to the topics. So I got another caller after you. So, uh, 1372 01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:45,599 Speaker 2: let's start with is the NFL rigged or not? 1373 01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,800 Speaker 16: Well, I'll tell you what if you want to. I 1374 01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:49,760 Speaker 16: don't think it is. 1375 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 15: But the hardest part about refereeing is the spotting of 1376 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:55,760 Speaker 15: the ball. Now that that's where it could be rigged 1377 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 15: when nobody knows nothing about it. 1378 01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:58,600 Speaker 16: That ends here to put here. 1379 01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 15: It's an impossible thing to do is spot the football. 1380 01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:03,200 Speaker 3: And you're got a different angle. 1381 01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:08,040 Speaker 2: That's true, that's true. I'm going to talk about that 1382 01:13:08,160 --> 01:13:10,960 Speaker 2: Saturday night. NFL claims even new technology wouldn't be able 1383 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:14,559 Speaker 2: to spot it correctly. Let's jump to Brownie James. Your 1384 01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 2: thoughts on him. 1385 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:17,880 Speaker 16: Well, you know that's why I like college football. You 1386 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:19,560 Speaker 16: got to stick around in college. 1387 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:23,679 Speaker 15: And if these guys, Brian's a good example, they leave early, 1388 01:13:24,280 --> 01:13:28,600 Speaker 15: not or in overland, NBA, G League overseas. 1389 01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:31,639 Speaker 16: Stick around to college for four years, get a great education, 1390 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 16: learn how. 1391 01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:35,880 Speaker 15: To play the game, teamwork, disciployment, and then get to. 1392 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 16: Your next step. Everybody's leaving too early in. 1393 01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:39,639 Speaker 15: The NBA, and that's why ANBA is not very good. 1394 01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:41,880 Speaker 15: You got all these four people coming in, you don't 1395 01:13:41,880 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 15: know who they are. For college football, you know people 1396 01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:47,080 Speaker 15: they hang around for four years. You know these players. 1397 01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,400 Speaker 2: I appreciate you man, keep it, keep it, hold it 1398 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:52,880 Speaker 2: down there at greg and Northern Michigan one of the 1399 01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:57,360 Speaker 2: very interesting places on the planet.

I brought your up next. 1401 01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:01,679 Speaker 17: Hey Bernie, how's it going Mervo? 1402 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:02,719 Speaker 2: Good? Thank you sir. 1403 01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:09,640 Speaker 17: You know that the Kansas City Chiefs being rigged, that's ridiculous. 1404 01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:13,320 Speaker 17: It's it's not it's not rigged. The thing is, it's, 1405 01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 17: you know again with the dynasty stuff. You know, we 1406 01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 17: all want to see greatness and I think, you know, 1407 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 17: the greatest talk to Mahomes is like, you know, it 1408 01:14:21,560 --> 01:14:23,679 Speaker 17: could be a fifty to fifty, but it's it's really. 1409 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:25,040 Speaker 6: Hard to say. 1410 01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about Brownie James. You have to 1411 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,520 Speaker 2: have an opinion on Brownie James. 1412 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:34,600 Speaker 17: Yeah, I see, here's here's my thing. I think he 1413 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:36,760 Speaker 17: needs to grow into a player. I think I think 1414 01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:38,520 Speaker 17: it was cool to see him and Lebron. 1415 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:38,880 Speaker 12: On Opening Night. 1416 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:39,679 Speaker 10: That was special. 1417 01:14:40,400 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 8: But outside of that, it's, you know. 1418 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,439 Speaker 2: It's bugging me. Why the hell they're trying to force 1419 01:14:46,479 --> 01:14:49,040 Speaker 2: feed is that this guy is really an NBA player. 1420 01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,599 Speaker 2: I mean, they wanted to manufacture history. I got it. 1421 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,840 Speaker 17: Continue on, Yeah, yeah, I don't Yeah no, I mean, 1422 01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:56,799 Speaker 17: at the end of the day, there's no way he's actually, 1423 01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:58,600 Speaker 17: like at this point time, an NBA player, And I 1424 01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:00,920 Speaker 17: think Lebron's pushing him too. Ho Now, I think I 1425 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:03,640 Speaker 17: don't think Lebron. Now I've heard Lebron say on the 1426 01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:07,639 Speaker 17: Kelsey Podcast that you know, he Bronnie could be anything. 1427 01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 17: But you know, at the end of the day, Lebron's 1428 01:15:11,400 --> 01:15:13,439 Speaker 17: a four time champion, he's a four time MVP, He's 1429 01:15:13,479 --> 01:15:17,519 Speaker 17: going to ten NBA finals. But the thing is he's 1430 01:15:18,280 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 17: Bronni's just not ready yet. If he you know, I 1431 01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:21,880 Speaker 17: think at some point in time he could become I'm 1432 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:23,840 Speaker 17: wishing him nothing but the best, But I think right 1433 01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 17: now he's he should be in college right now. 1434 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:26,880 Speaker 3: I'm not the NBA. 1435 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:29,960 Speaker 2: All right, thanks Bron. If he was in college at 1436 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 2: SC he probably wouldn't be good enough to start. He'd 1437 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:34,559 Speaker 2: be getting six minutes a game and he'd be doing 1438 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,479 Speaker 2: about the same thing. With all due respect, because I 1439 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:38,759 Speaker 2: like him as a human being, he's a really classy kid. 1440 01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:42,439 Speaker 2: He's not an NBA player. Our final caller tonight on 1441 01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:46,719 Speaker 2: the on these subjects will be Mike in modesto. Mike, 1442 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:48,839 Speaker 2: you're in the home stretch. What do you got for us? 1443 01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 3: Well, my thinking is simply this. 1444 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 13: Of course, the NFL is not rigged, and the elite 1445 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:59,160 Speaker 13: players can overcome the bad wrestling. That's why the chemistry. 1446 01:15:58,720 --> 01:15:59,280 Speaker 3: Is so good. 1447 01:16:00,040 --> 01:16:02,000 Speaker 13: They said the same thing about Montagna, they said the 1448 01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:05,160 Speaker 13: same thing about Tom Brady. Oh it's rigged, it's it's rigged. 1449 01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:08,400 Speaker 13: And now it's just Patrick Mahomes the nixed goat to come. 1450 01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:12,879 Speaker 13: So no, I don't believe it's ragged that. The problem 1451 01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,240 Speaker 13: is we got we got, we got a million depart 1452 01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:19,720 Speaker 13: maybe a billion dollar industry in the NFL. And they 1453 01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:24,519 Speaker 13: have part time referees. What the hell is that? Why 1454 01:16:24,640 --> 01:16:28,160 Speaker 13: not have them full time referees, give them training during 1455 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:33,320 Speaker 13: the year, have them other levels, go to classes, and 1456 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:38,080 Speaker 13: you get what I'm saying, right, Bernie, Well, raise. 1457 01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:40,920 Speaker 2: Really time that I wish I had more time. We 1458 01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:45,759 Speaker 2: got to do this somenight. Uh. It's a long story. 1459 01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:48,160 Speaker 2: And these guys are graded and if they don't do well, 1460 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,519 Speaker 2: they don't work. Uh, they don't want full time referees 1461 01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:54,360 Speaker 2: the NFL. They'll unionize, they'll become more powerful, they'll have 1462 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:57,559 Speaker 2: less control. They have actually had more control now and 1463 01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:59,400 Speaker 2: for the most part they do a clean job. But 1464 01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:02,000 Speaker 2: there's a lot of quies vegetable stuff. Okay. The question 1465 01:17:02,080 --> 01:17:04,680 Speaker 2: is whether it's intentional, Mike. The question is whether this 1466 01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:08,040 Speaker 2: is really rigged and I can't buy it. Have you 1467 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:10,160 Speaker 2: weighed on Brownie James yet? Have we talked about that. 1468 01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:15,600 Speaker 3: Bronnie James? You hit it. 1469 01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:18,880 Speaker 13: He's a college player at this point. Could he have 1470 01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:21,000 Speaker 13: been good after about three seasons? 1471 01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:24,040 Speaker 3: There's no way. He's like a lebron at one and done, 1472 01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:26,879 Speaker 3: two and done. He's a four year player. It was forced, 1473 01:17:27,280 --> 01:17:30,320 Speaker 3: it was for Daddy James. Yes here, you're right, he's 1474 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:30,960 Speaker 3: hide character. 1475 01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 13: I hope it works out for him. 1476 01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:33,800 Speaker 3: If it doesn't, is his dad's fault. 1477 01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 2: All right, really good stuff, Mike, Appreciate you man. You've 1478 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 2: called this segment many times. I want to thank all 1479 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:44,519 Speaker 2: the callers tonight on the Midnight Hour. I love the 1480 01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 2: diverse opinions, I love the disagreements, all and everybody who 1481 01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 2: called in. When you think the NFL is rigged or not, 1482 01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:56,360 Speaker 2: you gave your reasons why, justified it with relevant specifics, 1483 01:17:56,400 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 2: specific situations, events and games, where you sit as where 1484 01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 2: you stand. If you think it, you think it, I mean, 1485 01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:04,000 Speaker 2: it's out there. We had to do this as a 1486 01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 2: topic tonight. And is one of the callers brought up 1487 01:18:07,040 --> 01:18:08,880 Speaker 2: before that, it was Brady before that, it's you know 1488 01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 2: Al Davis used to complain in the seventies it was 1489 01:18:11,479 --> 01:18:14,439 Speaker 2: rigged against him because they hated the Raiders. Right, So 1490 01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 2: this whole thing got started because in pro football talk, 1491 01:18:17,920 --> 01:18:21,400 Speaker 2: the highly respected Dean Blandino's actually got a brother who 1492 01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:23,439 Speaker 2: thinks it's rigged. This is a little crazy, but that's 1493 01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:26,040 Speaker 2: how far this has gone. And as far as Brownie, 1494 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,160 Speaker 2: the Lakers really gave Ronnie kind of a big chance 1495 01:18:30,400 --> 01:18:33,720 Speaker 2: Wednesday night, and man, it did not go well. It 1496 01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 2: was really ugly and I watched a lot of it. 1497 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:39,800 Speaker 2: I watched all fifteen minutes. If he is not an 1498 01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:44,679 Speaker 2: NBA player, we've got to stop the charade. Knock yourself out. 1499 01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:48,400 Speaker 2: The more you do it, the more it becomes an embarrassment. 1500 01:18:48,439 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 2: That's just simply the way we see it. And look again, 1501 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:55,600 Speaker 2: great job by the callers tonight. Do I think the 1502 01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:58,479 Speaker 2: Chiefs are going to repeat I do, because when the 1503 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,360 Speaker 2: heat is gets hot, it's hard to breathe. They got 1504 01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:04,040 Speaker 2: a Hall of Fame coach with DNA, same with the 1505 01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 2: quarterback of the tight end, and that's how they roll. 1506 01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,080 Speaker 2: So there you have it coming out Breeze three, keep 1507 01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:12,720 Speaker 2: it locked.

It's entertainment. It's good. 1527 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:15,479 Speaker 11: It's Breeze three. 1528 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 1: All right, take it away, alrighty. 1529 01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:21,640 Speaker 18: So obviously we know Jimmy Butler has been in the 1530 01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:25,720 Speaker 18: news recently, all kinds of drama surrounding whether or not 1531 01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 18: that he are gonna get ready and trade him. And 1532 01:20:29,120 --> 01:20:31,160 Speaker 18: I just feel like at this point, Jimmy Butler is 1533 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:33,519 Speaker 18: just a name, right, Like it's just like, Okay, he's 1534 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:35,719 Speaker 18: not the player he used to be. So many injuries 1535 01:20:35,760 --> 01:20:38,519 Speaker 18: has happened, he's obviously a little bit older, and now 1536 01:20:38,520 --> 01:20:41,400 Speaker 18: he's just the name of like, you know, trying to 1537 01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 18: trade trying to trade him. So I was just thinking, 1538 01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:46,720 Speaker 18: I think he's just a little overrated at this point. 1539 01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:49,160 Speaker 18: And I think, no matter what team, unfortunately as a 1540 01:20:49,200 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 18: sentence fan, there's a good shot that we might get him. 1541 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:53,479 Speaker 19: But it's just kind. 1542 01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:55,759 Speaker 18: Of like, Okay, well we're getting the name of Jimmy Butler, 1543 01:20:55,800 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 18: but it's not really it's not the player that he 1544 01:20:57,960 --> 01:20:58,360 Speaker 18: used to be. 1545 01:20:58,439 --> 01:20:59,000 Speaker 19: So I was just. 1546 01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:02,519 Speaker 18: Thinking of overrated things in movies. So whether it's like 1547 01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:05,080 Speaker 18: a TV show or an actor. So I started off 1548 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:08,439 Speaker 18: with Barbie from like last year, right, I felt like 1549 01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,240 Speaker 18: Barbie was a little overrated. It got a lot of hype. 1550 01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:15,320 Speaker 18: Greta Gerwig obviously had a lot of eyes on her Bernie, like, 1551 01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:19,519 Speaker 18: you know, like for her directorial debut, and so and 1552 01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:22,040 Speaker 18: Ryan Gosling I think was like a highlight. But I 1553 01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:24,360 Speaker 18: just think the whole thing together, there was just so 1554 01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:26,240 Speaker 18: much hype and just so much about it. But when 1555 01:21:26,240 --> 01:21:28,479 Speaker 18: I saw the movie, like, I was really excited about it, 1556 01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 18: but when I went to go see it, I was like, oh, no, no, no, 1557 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 18: this isn't what I was expecting. And it didn't really 1558 01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:36,920 Speaker 18: like measure up to what I thought the name was 1559 01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:39,000 Speaker 18: going to be and everything kind of leading up to it. 1560 01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 2: So that was my I'll tell you, I gotta be honest, 1561 01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:43,200 Speaker 2: I didn't see it. It was a total miss for me. 1562 01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:47,120 Speaker 2: I couldn't couldn't have cared less, right, And I just 1563 01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:50,559 Speaker 2: it just like, okay, what are we doing here? No interest? 1564 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 2: So it doesn't surprise me that was. 1565 01:21:51,840 --> 01:21:54,800 Speaker 18: Overrated, yes, very And I was like and again, like 1566 01:21:55,320 --> 01:21:58,000 Speaker 18: I was a little disappointed because obviously, growing up in 1567 01:21:58,040 --> 01:22:00,559 Speaker 18: the nineties, Barbie was a big deal for me. I had, 1568 01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:03,920 Speaker 18: I had the house, I had the car. I mean obviously, 1569 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:04,200 Speaker 18: you know. 1570 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,240 Speaker 19: So, yeah, just it didn't measure up. 1571 01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:08,400 Speaker 18: And I actually love Greta Gerwick, So I was a 1572 01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:09,200 Speaker 18: little disappointed. 1573 01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:12,280 Speaker 20: Was it a little bit of once everybody saw the movie, 1574 01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:14,519 Speaker 20: that is like, if this is what it's about, then 1575 01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:16,880 Speaker 20: that's not what I thought Barb was going to be about. 1576 01:22:17,160 --> 01:22:19,200 Speaker 19: Yeah, that kind of killed her too. I didn't see it, 1577 01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:19,680 Speaker 19: but I've as. 1578 01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:22,680 Speaker 2: God it neither. And what's interesting is that wouldn't have 1579 01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 2: suayed me to see it either. They could have said 1580 01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:26,920 Speaker 2: it was the greatest thing since Godfather. I don't care. 1581 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:29,280 Speaker 2: I'm looking at this thing from the outside looking in, 1582 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:31,560 Speaker 2: want nothing to do with it. Continue I'm sorry. 1583 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 18: No, no, no, I'm glad, like this is around. 1584 01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:34,960 Speaker 20: We had it on and somebody had it on in here, 1585 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:37,559 Speaker 20: so I saw them with editing here, but I saw it. 1586 01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:40,599 Speaker 20: But just the idea of what the movie turned out 1587 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:43,960 Speaker 20: to be about seemed to change the audience, and that 1588 01:22:44,120 --> 01:22:46,480 Speaker 20: just took away all of its thunder exactly. 1589 01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:49,200 Speaker 18: Yeah, and I and again, I just think like I 1590 01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:51,400 Speaker 18: think people kind of went in with a different kind 1591 01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:53,680 Speaker 18: of mindset and they walked out they're like, oh, a 1592 01:22:53,720 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 18: lot of people loved it, Like I said, a lot 1593 01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 18: of people. I mean, it got a lot of hype, 1594 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,680 Speaker 18: but it just wasn't what I was expecting, and just 1595 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:03,040 Speaker 18: then itself and everything kind of stood. For my second one, 1596 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:05,519 Speaker 18: I went a little random, but I went le Angelo Ball. 1597 01:23:05,720 --> 01:23:08,400 Speaker 18: Obviously he's been in the news lately. He performed at 1598 01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:10,760 Speaker 18: halftime during the Lions. 1599 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:12,400 Speaker 19: Their last playoff game. 1600 01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 18: I just think the Ball brand in general, obviously, the 1601 01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:20,880 Speaker 18: Ball brothers, Lonzo, Leangelo whatever, the other one is just 1602 01:23:21,080 --> 01:23:25,000 Speaker 18: like Lamela, Oh yeah, yeah, I mean, okay, fine, Lamela, 1603 01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:27,559 Speaker 18: you're right.

And then so that's my second one, 1617 01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 18: and then I went Jason Kelcey for. 1618 01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 19: My third one. I'm done. 1619 01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:13,840 Speaker 18: I'm done with Jason Kelsey. I'm done. I think he 1620 01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:17,880 Speaker 18: has his little late night show. I understand like the 1621 01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:20,519 Speaker 18: Kelsey name carries a lot of weight right now just 1622 01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:24,040 Speaker 18: because of Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift. To totally understand 1623 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 18: and respect that, but that's it's just too much. Like 1624 01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:30,080 Speaker 18: when he was on Monday Night Football, I thought people 1625 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:33,519 Speaker 18: are just paying attention to his outfits a lot rather 1626 01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 18: than what he wanted to say. And his wife also 1627 01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:40,439 Speaker 18: got like a podcast also after kind of like how 1628 01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 18: he's been coming up the rings. I don't know if 1629 01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 18: you've been seeing any of his things, Bernie like his appearances. 1630 01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:48,240 Speaker 2: Well, I know Jason Kelsey has a show on Friday night. 1631 01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 2: I'm not going to watch it. 1632 01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:50,000 Speaker 1: Okay, Okay. 1633 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:53,080 Speaker 2: He's a damn good player with the Eagles. They won 1634 01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:57,040 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl. And the problem is is the Kelsey's 1635 01:24:57,080 --> 01:25:01,200 Speaker 2: are running the risk of being overexposed to. And we 1636 01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:04,439 Speaker 2: talked about we talked about you remark oh a little bit. 1637 01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:08,920 Speaker 2: And here's the thing, so you heard my opening monologue 1638 01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:12,599 Speaker 2: and all this conspiracy stuff about the Chiefs is based 1639 01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:16,680 Speaker 2: on Chiefs hate. Well, when you see Jason Kelsey, what 1640 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:19,719 Speaker 2: do you think you're thinking chiefs? You think of Chiefs again, 1641 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 2: So it's adding to this overall narrative. So yeah, we 1642 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:26,720 Speaker 2: see Jason Kelcey everywhere on Monday night football, doing commentary, 1643 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:30,559 Speaker 2: doing TV shows, doing commercials. You better be careful because 1644 01:25:30,560 --> 01:25:33,800 Speaker 2: when you get over exposed like that, the public has enough. 1645 01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:36,599 Speaker 18: And I'm done, Like, I'm done. And I didn't even 1646 01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:40,240 Speaker 18: care about him before. I've never cared about any Kelsey. 1647 01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:42,120 Speaker 18: You know Travis urch I. 1648 01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 2: You might like his story. He's a good dude, he's 1649 01:25:44,560 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 2: a good you know, all the good stuff. But to 1650 01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:49,840 Speaker 2: try to force fee to make him a star. That's 1651 01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:52,439 Speaker 2: where I'm like, okay, do we really Okay? Fair enough? 1652 01:25:52,479 --> 01:25:55,519 Speaker 18: The Campbell's commercials were great, but oh yeah, I'm sorry, Okay, yeah, 1653 01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:56,560 Speaker 18: I'm done. 1654 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:59,240 Speaker 2: Mark so much. Well, I want you, I want you 1655 01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:01,400 Speaker 2: to weigh on Jason Kelsey' oh. 1656 01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:05,320 Speaker 20: Just the well, yeah, like I said, there's too much 1657 01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:06,360 Speaker 20: of them. 1658 01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:09,920 Speaker 2: And I respect him and I respect their accomplishments, but 1659 01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 2: when you're continually going to force feed him down our throat, 1660 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:13,320 Speaker 2: it doesn't work for anybody. 1661 01:26:13,640 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 20: I think we all agree that entertainment, once they find 1662 01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:20,000 Speaker 20: something that they think is hot, they will jam it 1663 01:26:20,160 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 20: down our throat until we say, you know, stop and 1664 01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:25,439 Speaker 20: until something happens. 1665 01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:28,000 Speaker 2: Well, super Bowl Champions all that, but all of a sudden, 1666 01:26:28,360 --> 01:26:31,400 Speaker 2: TV shows, Monday night football come right, all this stuff. 1667 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:33,559 Speaker 20: So while it's hot, they're just going to keep doing 1668 01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:36,559 Speaker 20: it because if we can make money off of it, 1669 01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:39,240 Speaker 20: we're going to keep it going until it dies. And 1670 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:41,880 Speaker 20: you just kick the dead horse till it's that. David 1671 01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:45,879 Speaker 20: Letterman used to say that, just do it until it dies. Yeah, 1672 01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:50,280 Speaker 20: so there's that keep going with it. So my three 1673 01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:53,120 Speaker 20: I picked a couple of TV shows and one of 1674 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:57,719 Speaker 20: them is the Chicago They have those three shows, Chicago Fire, 1675 01:26:57,840 --> 01:26:59,719 Speaker 20: Chicago p D, and Chicago Med. 1676 01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:01,760 Speaker 19: I used to watch that a little bit. 1677 01:27:01,680 --> 01:27:04,799 Speaker 20: And I used to tease a friend about those shows 1678 01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:10,560 Speaker 20: because I think there's TV shows that have pretty actors, 1679 01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:15,320 Speaker 20: and then the pretty actors are always involved with each other. 1680 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:17,200 Speaker 19: This one involved with that. 1681 01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,080 Speaker 20: One, and if it's you know, if they're in the 1682 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:21,760 Speaker 20: locker room and then they have cot locker rooms so 1683 01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 20: they're all together or they looking at each other, it 1684 01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:27,599 Speaker 20: just seems like it's just one big soap opera. So 1685 01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 20: I just think that particular show was sort of overrated. 1686 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 19: I think it's still going. They have the Chicago shows. 1687 01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:37,759 Speaker 20: So those kind of that TV show, it just seemed 1688 01:27:37,960 --> 01:27:40,320 Speaker 20: like it's like we were talking about, it's a little 1689 01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:41,240 Speaker 20: overrated for me. 1690 01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:42,639 Speaker 19: So that's one of the ones that I picked. 1691 01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:44,920 Speaker 20: It's like three of them, and the other one that 1692 01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 20: I thought about that I just I mean, I parts 1693 01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:50,599 Speaker 20: of it are funny, but I just think it's kind 1694 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:54,000 Speaker 20: of overrated. It's it's always sunny in Philadelphia. 1695 01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:57,720 Speaker 2: Oh that that hadn't been on about ten years. Is 1696 01:27:57,720 --> 01:27:58,639 Speaker 2: that's still running anywhere? 1697 01:27:58,680 --> 01:27:59,360 Speaker 18: It's still running. 1698 01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,000 Speaker 19: Yeah, I knew I would hurt somebody feeling. 1699 01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:06,960 Speaker 2: I haven't watched it enough to actually I maybe watched 1700 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 2: ten minutes of one episode and I just couldn't go ahead, Mark, 1701 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:10,599 Speaker 2: you got. 1702 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:12,760 Speaker 20: The floor, just the idea that you know, it's one 1703 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:16,240 Speaker 20: of those kind of TV shows where everybody has an 1704 01:28:16,280 --> 01:28:21,519 Speaker 20: anxiety attack and they're always you know, frustrated and going crazy, 1705 01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:24,920 Speaker 20: and then the whole group has to figure things out. 1706 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:28,759 Speaker 20: I guess I just don't care for that brand of comedy, 1707 01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 20: and I think that particular show was overrated. And I'm 1708 01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:36,040 Speaker 20: getting looks, so I know I'm doing well because somebody's 1709 01:28:36,040 --> 01:28:36,920 Speaker 20: looking at me anyway. 1710 01:28:37,040 --> 01:28:38,439 Speaker 19: But that's one another one of those shows. 1711 01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 20: It's always Sonny and Philadelphia I just thought was overrated. 1712 01:28:42,439 --> 01:28:46,200 Speaker 20: And then I'm not a big fan of South Park. 1713 01:28:46,360 --> 01:28:50,559 Speaker 20: They have certain skits and they do crazy things, but 1714 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:55,599 Speaker 20: I wasn't always loving those two creators of the show, 1715 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:57,880 Speaker 20: or just that show. I know it's a big thing, 1716 01:28:57,920 --> 01:29:00,000 Speaker 20: but it wasn't a big deal for me. I thought 1717 01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:02,600 Speaker 20: it was a little bit overrated all the time. For 1718 01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:06,479 Speaker 20: those in my three, it's always Sunny Philadelphia, South Park, 1719 01:29:06,800 --> 01:29:10,519 Speaker 20: and then those Chicago Fire, PD and MAT So those 1720 01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:11,519 Speaker 20: are my three, all right. 1721 01:29:13,160 --> 01:29:15,880 Speaker 2: I went with two actors and then one movie and 1722 01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:18,719 Speaker 2: kind of keeping with the theme that clearly Jimmy Butler 1723 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,840 Speaker 2: is overrated. Now he's a pain in the ass. His 1724 01:29:23,040 --> 01:29:27,840 Speaker 2: production is anywhere what it used to be. And look, 1725 01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 2: it just feels like he's a guy who's living in 1726 01:29:32,160 --> 01:29:34,479 Speaker 2: the past right in terms of what he could bring 1727 01:29:34,560 --> 01:29:36,960 Speaker 2: an NBA team right now. So who's overrated in the 1728 01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 2: acting world. This first name is going to shock you. 1729 01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:44,560 Speaker 2: But he went to his grave never winning a Academy 1730 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:48,639 Speaker 2: Award to greatly his lament. I'm talking about Burt Reynolds 1731 01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:52,679 Speaker 2: is talented and as much of a box office huge 1732 01:29:53,120 --> 01:29:58,000 Speaker 2: star Burt Reynolds was, he never really believed he got 1733 01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:03,000 Speaker 2: the respect from his peers as a serious actor with serious. 1734 01:30:02,680 --> 01:30:04,639 Speaker 19: Chops at the end with Buggy Knights. 1735 01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:06,680 Speaker 2: Well, and that's the thing, Mark, You're right. That was 1736 01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:09,599 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety six. He thought for sure he was going 1737 01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:11,760 Speaker 2: to win the Academy Award. The camera had a tight 1738 01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:14,439 Speaker 2: shot on him. He didn't win it, and they clapped 1739 01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:16,840 Speaker 2: and he did his best to be dignified, but you 1740 01:30:16,840 --> 01:30:19,000 Speaker 2: could read his face. He knew that that was his 1741 01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:21,519 Speaker 2: last shot. Okay, he was never going to win an 1742 01:30:21,520 --> 01:30:25,840 Speaker 2: Academy Award deep down, and he was. Burt Reynolds was 1743 01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:30,599 Speaker 2: quite candid about it in his later years. The first 1744 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:33,880 Speaker 2: movie he ever got was a movie called Navajo Joe. 1745 01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:36,640 Speaker 2: No one's ever heard of Navajo Joe. I barely have, 1746 01:30:36,880 --> 01:30:40,120 Speaker 2: only because he said I certainly didn't see it. But 1747 01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 2: he said he was so happy to get work. He 1748 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:44,200 Speaker 2: never turned anything down, and he made a lot of 1749 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:49,679 Speaker 2: bad decisions. He was offered. He already had another gig 1750 01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:54,000 Speaker 2: at the time, but he could have been Randall P. 1751 01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:56,519 Speaker 2: McMurphy in one floor of the Cucka's Nests. Instead it 1752 01:30:56,520 --> 01:30:57,519 Speaker 2: went to Jack Nicholson. 1753 01:30:57,520 --> 01:30:57,800 Speaker 3: Oh wow. 1754 01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:01,280 Speaker 2: Not because he didn't have war. He had two or 1755 01:31:01,280 --> 01:31:04,519 Speaker 2: three other movies he was working on. So towards the 1756 01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:06,559 Speaker 2: end of his life he said, the reason no one 1757 01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:08,679 Speaker 2: took me serious is I was in too many Navajo 1758 01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:11,280 Speaker 2: Joe's what he was trying to say was he did 1759 01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:13,400 Speaker 2: too much in too many non descript movies, so no 1760 01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:15,719 Speaker 2: one took him serious. So the truth of the matter 1761 01:31:15,880 --> 01:31:19,960 Speaker 2: is in real circles. In Hollywood actor circles, Burt Reynolds 1762 01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,439 Speaker 2: was considered overrated. Yeah, ye story, because. 1763 01:31:22,560 --> 01:31:24,920 Speaker 19: He picked a bunch of you know, BC movies. 1764 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 2: They're all they were entertaining, but they were brainless movies, 1765 01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:30,240 Speaker 2: you know, Smoking the Bandit all that kind of stuff. 1766 01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:32,920 Speaker 2: Of course, Longest Yard was iconic, but he wasn't the 1767 01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:34,240 Speaker 2: only one in that. There was a kind of an 1768 01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:37,680 Speaker 2: ensemble cast at the second one. I may or man, 1769 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:40,760 Speaker 2: you know, Jim Carrey, bugs the hell out of me. 1770 01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 2: I've never liked him. I'll give him credit half credit 1771 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:48,439 Speaker 2: in one movie because he was alongside Jeff Daniels in 1772 01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:51,479 Speaker 2: Dumb and Dumber. And Jeff Daniels is a Michigan guy. 1773 01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 2: He's as much of a solid citizen as you could 1774 01:31:54,800 --> 01:31:58,960 Speaker 2: ever imagine. I came across so many times. I took 1775 01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:02,080 Speaker 2: my daughter to see you Dumb and Dumber. She loved it, 1776 01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:04,760 Speaker 2: and I ran into Jeff Daniels. You know you're not 1777 01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:06,439 Speaker 2: supposed to do this, and you got a media creditial. 1778 01:32:06,479 --> 01:32:09,240 Speaker 2: I said, my daughter's a big fan. To he goes, 1779 01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:11,920 Speaker 2: give me you're right. He sent an autograph. Picture arrived 1780 01:32:11,960 --> 01:32:15,439 Speaker 2: like the next day. Amazing. So I'll give Jim Carrey 1781 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:18,680 Speaker 2: half credit any other movie he has ever been in, 1782 01:32:19,160 --> 01:32:23,799 Speaker 2: and I liar and the Trunder, overrated, sucked out. He's 1783 01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:27,960 Speaker 2: never made me laugh, you know, the goofy faces. This 1784 01:32:28,520 --> 01:32:31,479 Speaker 2: he just all right, I'm stammering. I don't like Jim Carrey. 1785 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:34,639 Speaker 2: I think he's overrated. The third one is a movie. Now, 1786 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:36,840 Speaker 2: this one is probably going to raise to my brows too. 1787 01:32:37,320 --> 01:32:40,479 Speaker 2: It came in in nineteen seventy seven. I was playing 1788 01:32:40,520 --> 01:32:43,639 Speaker 2: college baseball. The whole damn team went to see this movie, 1789 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:45,519 Speaker 2: and I said, I'm not going to look stupid. The 1790 01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:48,400 Speaker 2: movie is called Star Wars. I just wasn't into a 1791 01:32:48,439 --> 01:32:51,519 Speaker 2: wharf time. I'm not into warp time. I don't really 1792 01:32:51,560 --> 01:32:53,640 Speaker 2: care about all that, right, And then there there were 1793 01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:57,040 Speaker 2: Star Wars, Wars two, then the Empire strikes back. Didn't 1794 01:32:57,080 --> 01:32:59,599 Speaker 2: see any of them. Fast forward to nineteen ninety seven. 1795 01:32:59,880 --> 01:33:02,000 Speaker 2: A family kids took my kids is either the twenty 1796 01:33:02,040 --> 01:33:05,599 Speaker 2: year anniversary to my wife and kids. I said, okay, well, 1797 01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:09,439 Speaker 2: I get it now why people like this. There's some wisdom, 1798 01:33:09,479 --> 01:33:12,719 Speaker 2: there's some yoda. This is basically a Western out in 1799 01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:16,080 Speaker 2: the middle of outer space, and they tell these stories 1800 01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:17,800 Speaker 2: and if you get into it, let it go. And 1801 01:33:17,880 --> 01:33:23,320 Speaker 2: Harrison Ford okay, okay. Still, even though I watched it, 1802 01:33:23,360 --> 01:33:26,880 Speaker 2: overrated to me. So Burt Reynolds, Jim Carrey, Star Wars 1803 01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:30,360 Speaker 2: just my opinion, right. Everybody has their own opinions, and 1804 01:33:31,360 --> 01:33:33,439 Speaker 2: these are just opinions. Back to you, guys. 1805 01:33:33,600 --> 01:33:34,920 Speaker 18: I love that Jim Carrey one. 1806 01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:36,519 Speaker 19: That's hilarious, it's funny. 1807 01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:37,600 Speaker 5: It doesn't make me. 1808 01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:40,880 Speaker 2: Laugh it neither does, I mean, you know, neither does. 1809 01:33:41,560 --> 01:33:44,639 Speaker 2: Kevin Hart never makes me laugh. I think ever, I. 1810 01:33:44,560 --> 01:33:46,400 Speaker 18: Think Jim Carrey, I think he's just so. He just 1811 01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:48,880 Speaker 18: tries to be so expressive and people just love like 1812 01:33:48,960 --> 01:33:51,479 Speaker 18: the expressions and the faces, and I think it's a 1813 01:33:51,479 --> 01:33:53,080 Speaker 18: little much, but some people just love that. 1814 01:33:53,680 --> 01:33:54,000 Speaker 5: I don't. 1815 01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:57,240 Speaker 18: I've never really been like a huge fan, so I 1816 01:33:57,320 --> 01:33:59,080 Speaker 18: kind of agree with that. But I think that's why 1817 01:33:59,080 --> 01:34:02,280 Speaker 18: people like Bruce all My like his loud voice and 1818 01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:03,040 Speaker 18: everything else. 1819 01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:05,800 Speaker 20: But guys, I like two of his movies, like I said, 1820 01:34:05,880 --> 01:34:08,720 Speaker 20: A Liar, Liar and then The Truman Show. 1821 01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:09,639 Speaker 19: I liked those about him. 1822 01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 20: But other than that quick point about Star Wars Bernie, 1823 01:34:14,520 --> 01:34:17,839 Speaker 20: when I first watched that, I got up and left. 1824 01:34:18,120 --> 01:34:21,360 Speaker 20: When R two, D two and C threepo were in 1825 01:34:21,439 --> 01:34:24,040 Speaker 20: the desert, I got up and left because I thought, 1826 01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 20: what am I watching? This is going nowhere. I got 1827 01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:31,519 Speaker 20: up and I left. Years later, I started watching it 1828 01:34:31,560 --> 01:34:33,200 Speaker 20: and I was like, oh, Okay, now I get it. 1829 01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:35,160 Speaker 20: Like I just said, now I get it, because the 1830 01:34:35,280 --> 01:34:37,599 Speaker 20: rockets were great and just the space stuff was great. 1831 01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:40,320 Speaker 20: But like you, I got up and walked up because 1832 01:34:40,320 --> 01:34:42,479 Speaker 20: when he got to that part, I thought it was 1833 01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:44,720 Speaker 20: so boring. Anything was going to go anywhere, and I 1834 01:34:44,760 --> 01:34:45,479 Speaker 20: got up and left. 1835 01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:47,679 Speaker 19: Did you ever go back and watch it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, 1836 01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:51,400 Speaker 19: I started watching. Okay, well yeah that was a guy. 1837 01:34:51,520 --> 01:34:55,800 Speaker 2: Thank you, all right, great job. Everybody appreciate it.

We had some exceptional calls tonight on 1867 01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:41,760 Speaker 2: the midnight hour and one of the plays that came 1868 01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:48,200 Speaker 2: up that sparks the narrative which has really gone haywire, 1869 01:36:48,479 --> 01:36:51,240 Speaker 2: having to do with whether or not the NFL is rigged. 1870 01:36:52,080 --> 01:36:54,760 Speaker 2: You know my thoughts on this. You heard my opening monologue. 1871 01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:56,320 Speaker 2: Though I don't believe it is. We had some really 1872 01:36:56,320 --> 01:36:58,920 Speaker 2: good callers though, Okay, I'm not going to in selt 1873 01:36:58,920 --> 01:37:04,519 Speaker 2: their intelligence or dispute their premise because every one of 1874 01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:08,960 Speaker 2: them gave a reason why, with specific specific situations. I 1875 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,639 Speaker 2: think it was Poppy said. Remember when Josh Allen had 1876 01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:14,320 Speaker 2: looked like he got the first time one of the 1877 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:17,280 Speaker 2: referee signal he got it, the other singing he didn't 1878 01:37:17,920 --> 01:37:21,080 Speaker 2: not a good optic. Then, of course that led to 1879 01:37:21,120 --> 01:37:24,280 Speaker 2: the narrative. I mean that play has fed this narrative. Right, 1880 01:37:24,840 --> 01:37:27,679 Speaker 2: the refs gave it to Kansas City, but Josh got 1881 01:37:27,680 --> 01:37:29,960 Speaker 2: it all. By the way, why the hell are we 1882 01:37:30,040 --> 01:37:33,800 Speaker 2: still using the same chain gangs Rockney used back in 1883 01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:37,519 Speaker 2: eighteen forty one? All right, what's interesting is give it 1884 01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:39,880 Speaker 2: up to Mike Florio, a guy I respect a lot. 1885 01:37:40,600 --> 01:37:46,120 Speaker 2: Apparently he has come upon some information. The NFL is tarrative, 1886 01:37:46,120 --> 01:37:49,960 Speaker 2: hearing criticism that they didn't use enough technology to determine 1887 01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:56,720 Speaker 2: whether football is a first down or not, and the 1888 01:37:56,840 --> 01:38:01,040 Speaker 2: league is not looking to implement any solution that we 1889 01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:07,920 Speaker 2: know of anytime soon. And apparently, according to the NFL 1890 01:38:08,120 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 2: and reports that I can't take credit for right that 1891 01:38:12,479 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 2: when it comes to utilizing technology to determine whether a 1892 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:20,840 Speaker 2: first down was earned, you can use all this new 1893 01:38:20,880 --> 01:38:26,880 Speaker 2: digital technology, but it can't replace the current procedure for 1894 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:33,439 Speaker 2: spotting the ball. According to representative fields of the NFL, quote, 1895 01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:38,040 Speaker 2: what this technology cannot do is take the place of 1896 01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:43,080 Speaker 2: the human element determining where forward progress ends. There will 1897 01:38:43,120 --> 01:38:46,160 Speaker 2: always be a human official spotting the ball. So once 1898 01:38:46,200 --> 01:38:50,400 Speaker 2: the ball spotted, then the line to gain technology actually 1899 01:38:50,479 --> 01:38:53,360 Speaker 2: does the measurement itself. So I think it's probably been 1900 01:38:53,400 --> 01:38:56,760 Speaker 2: a point of confusion around what the technology can and 1901 01:38:56,800 --> 01:38:58,679 Speaker 2: can't do. There will always be a human element because 1902 01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:05,599 Speaker 2: of the forward progress conversation. All right, end quote. Here's 1903 01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:09,440 Speaker 2: what throws me though. I'm told, you know through cameras 1904 01:39:09,479 --> 01:39:15,120 Speaker 2: and digital technology, and I'm not using the right terminology, 1905 01:39:15,200 --> 01:39:19,840 Speaker 2: so forgive me. But when you see Josh Allen, you know, 1906 01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:22,360 Speaker 2: diving through a pile of people and the ball clearly 1907 01:39:22,400 --> 01:39:26,280 Speaker 2: appears to have at least crossed the line, technology can 1908 01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:30,760 Speaker 2: note that metrically and annotate it, and that will tell 1909 01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:33,759 Speaker 2: you where to spot the ball. So here's another argument. Okay, 1910 01:39:34,160 --> 01:39:36,559 Speaker 2: can you sync up the moment the officials determined that 1911 01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:40,200 Speaker 2: four progress was stopped with the specific location of the ball. 1912 01:39:40,200 --> 01:39:44,960 Speaker 2: When that occurs, that's the whole purpose of incorporating technology 1913 01:39:45,400 --> 01:39:48,479 Speaker 2: to help find the placement of the ball with an 1914 01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,680 Speaker 2: electric line. Is okay, you already see where the line is. 1915 01:39:51,720 --> 01:39:54,559 Speaker 2: They already do that with technology. They draw fake lines 1916 01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:56,320 Speaker 2: on the field that you never see when you're in person. 1917 01:39:56,560 --> 01:39:58,680 Speaker 2: Now you need to know where the ball is. And 1918 01:39:58,800 --> 01:40:00,559 Speaker 2: right now, I think the lead he has to figure 1919 01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:02,160 Speaker 2: out a way to do it. They got the money. 1920 01:40:02,560 --> 01:40:05,280 Speaker 2: I think they have the incentive. Now. The truth of 1921 01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:07,559 Speaker 2: the matter is if they want to do it enough, 1922 01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:10,400 Speaker 2: they can figure it out. Yes, there will always be 1923 01:40:10,479 --> 01:40:13,920 Speaker 2: a human element, right, but what they should be saying is, 1924 01:40:13,960 --> 01:40:17,640 Speaker 2: while there's a human element, the NFL is fully committed 1925 01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:21,920 Speaker 2: to trying to incorporate digital methods for determining where the 1926 01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:28,240 Speaker 2: ball is when forward progress is stopped. All right, think 1927 01:40:28,280 --> 01:40:30,439 Speaker 2: about it. If they want to do it bad enough, 1928 01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:35,120 Speaker 2: I believe they can. Just like if your school wants 1929 01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:39,240 Speaker 2: to buy a quarterback in college and you want it 1930 01:40:39,280 --> 01:40:45,000 Speaker 2: bad enough in the NIL era, you can. It wasn't 1931 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:50,360 Speaker 2: that long ago Michigan who highly coveted a quarterback out 1932 01:40:50,360 --> 01:40:53,920 Speaker 2: of Belleville, Michigan, which is probably about forty five minutes 1933 01:40:53,960 --> 01:40:56,040 Speaker 2: or man on our kid by the name of Bryce Underwood. 1934 01:40:57,360 --> 01:40:59,720 Speaker 2: It appeared that he was signed, sealed and delivered to 1935 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:04,000 Speaker 2: go to LSU. He wasn't signed. He'd committed verbally, he 1936 01:41:04,040 --> 01:41:06,479 Speaker 2: hadn't you know, you know, the National Letter from ten 1937 01:41:06,560 --> 01:41:12,519 Speaker 2: or anything yet, and Michigan pried them away. All it 1938 01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:16,800 Speaker 2: took was twelve million dollars. Twelve million dollars. What if 1939 01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:19,080 Speaker 2: your school wants to buy a new quarterback? So we'll 1940 01:41:19,200 --> 01:41:23,000 Speaker 2: follow this year, okay, Because as college football wound down, 1941 01:41:23,120 --> 01:41:24,960 Speaker 2: there was talking with a new playoff, there was talk 1942 01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:29,760 Speaker 2: of bowl games, coaches this that. But what's what's the 1943 01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:33,800 Speaker 2: primary talk about? Name, image and likeness deals and of 1944 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:38,400 Speaker 2: course the transfer portal because within three days or seven days, 1945 01:41:38,439 --> 01:41:40,560 Speaker 2: ten days only, you know, twenty four hundred kids that 1946 01:41:40,640 --> 01:41:44,000 Speaker 2: hit the portal. All right, but then you start putting names. 1947 01:41:44,600 --> 01:41:48,679 Speaker 2: All right. You saw Carson Beck, who was a fixture 1948 01:41:48,680 --> 01:41:52,160 Speaker 2: at Georgia for a couple of years. What did he do? 1949 01:41:53,080 --> 01:41:58,479 Speaker 2: He decided to transfer to Miami. What are the details? Well, 1950 01:41:58,479 --> 01:42:01,719 Speaker 2: remember Miami had a quarterback that's talked about as being 1951 01:42:01,720 --> 01:42:04,519 Speaker 2: one of the top two quarterbacks drafted this year, cam Ward. 1952 01:42:04,960 --> 01:42:08,880 Speaker 2: You come quite away, quite a long ways from his 1953 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 2: day as an incarnate word. So Miami goes, we need 1954 01:42:11,560 --> 01:42:15,160 Speaker 2: a quarterback. Well, what the hell we got four million 1955 01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:19,519 Speaker 2: laying around? Carson Beck? You want to transfer from Georgia 1956 01:42:19,520 --> 01:42:23,080 Speaker 2: to Miami for your final year of eligibility? Yeah, what 1957 01:42:23,120 --> 01:42:25,320 Speaker 2: the hell, I got four million reasons you just gave 1958 01:42:25,400 --> 01:42:29,000 Speaker 2: me to come there. At least that's the figure that 1959 01:42:29,120 --> 01:42:32,439 Speaker 2: I believe going to give Front Office Sports credit for 1960 01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:37,080 Speaker 2: reporting that figure. All right, have you heard of a 1961 01:42:37,160 --> 01:42:41,280 Speaker 2: quarterback named Darien Mensa? Darien Mensa. I don't know if 1962 01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:43,360 Speaker 2: he's a MENSA member, but he's got enough money now 1963 01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:47,880 Speaker 2: to buy a Mensa. He transferred from Tulane to Duke. 1964 01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:50,439 Speaker 2: I thought Duke was a basketball school. Now they're actually 1965 01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:51,559 Speaker 2: a pretty good football school. 1966 01:42:51,560 --> 01:42:51,680 Speaker 14: Now. 1967 01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:56,600 Speaker 2: All right, Well, Darien Mensa, and he maybe is a 1968 01:42:56,600 --> 01:42:58,360 Speaker 2: MENSA student to go to Duke, you gotta be smart 1969 01:42:58,400 --> 01:43:01,360 Speaker 2: to go there. Best of my knowledge, he's going to 1970 01:43:01,400 --> 01:43:03,720 Speaker 2: get eight million dollars over two years. He's got two 1971 01:43:03,840 --> 01:43:08,720 Speaker 2: years of eligibility. Mama's let your sons grow up to 1972 01:43:08,720 --> 01:43:12,800 Speaker 2: be college quarterbacks. So Carson Beck gets four million to 1973 01:43:12,840 --> 01:43:16,479 Speaker 2: transfer from Georgia to Miami. Darien Mensa gets four million 1974 01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:20,639 Speaker 2: times two for two years to transfer from Tulane to Duke. 1975 01:43:21,840 --> 01:43:25,479 Speaker 2: By the way, there's another gentleman who matriculated last year 1976 01:43:25,479 --> 01:43:30,200 Speaker 2: at Washington State. Someday I'll have to ask Chris Plank 1977 01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:34,680 Speaker 2: about him. He's transferring to Washington State. It's my understanding, 1978 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:39,519 Speaker 2: he's got two years left. He's also getting four million 1979 01:43:39,560 --> 01:43:44,120 Speaker 2: per year. John Mattier to go from Washington State to Oklahoma. 1980 01:43:44,360 --> 01:43:46,559 Speaker 2: If any of these figures are wrong, tweet Abbey. Let 1981 01:43:46,560 --> 01:43:48,880 Speaker 2: me know. I'm not the burning bush here. I'm just 1982 01:43:48,920 --> 01:43:52,439 Speaker 2: reporting what I'm reading and seeing and what's out there. 1983 01:43:52,600 --> 01:43:55,599 Speaker 2: Because now it looks like four million per year that's 1984 01:43:55,640 --> 01:43:58,840 Speaker 2: the going rate. So you want your school to buy 1985 01:43:58,840 --> 01:44:00,840 Speaker 2: a new college quarterback, may not have to get him 1986 01:44:00,840 --> 01:44:03,439 Speaker 2: twelve million, because I'll tell you and I'll get to 1987 01:44:03,479 --> 01:44:06,759 Speaker 2: that in a minute. Bryce Underwood going to Michigan four mayon. 1988 01:44:06,840 --> 01:44:10,080 Speaker 2: Right now, four million prior looks to be the going 1989 01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:14,920 Speaker 2: market rate for a top college quarterback. But my guess 1990 01:44:16,280 --> 01:44:19,599 Speaker 2: it's going going to go up. Okay. Quinn Ewers ended 1991 01:44:19,680 --> 01:44:22,960 Speaker 2: up declaring for the NFL Draft. Now, I think arch 1992 01:44:23,040 --> 01:44:27,160 Speaker 2: Manning is a much higher ceiling than quinn yours. And 1993 01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:31,080 Speaker 2: what's interesting is when it was known that quinn Ewers 1994 01:44:31,160 --> 01:44:34,719 Speaker 2: was leaving Texas because let's face it, by arch Manning, 1995 01:44:34,760 --> 01:44:39,680 Speaker 2: he he's paid his dues, he's bied his time, he's 1996 01:44:39,720 --> 01:44:41,920 Speaker 2: a Manning and you can clearly see he's got a 1997 01:44:41,960 --> 01:44:44,800 Speaker 2: higher ceiling with all due respect to quin Ewers, who 1998 01:44:45,160 --> 01:44:47,400 Speaker 2: remember it wasn't that long ago at a million dollars 1999 01:44:47,439 --> 01:44:50,439 Speaker 2: out of high school to go to Ohio State before 2000 01:44:50,439 --> 01:44:52,439 Speaker 2: he ever left high school and couldn't get on the 2001 01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:56,360 Speaker 2: field there, so he transferred to Texas. Was supposedly off 2002 01:44:56,720 --> 01:45:01,280 Speaker 2: quinn Ewers was supposedly offered eight min million dollars. No, 2003 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:04,320 Speaker 2: we don't know the name of the school to play 2004 01:45:04,439 --> 01:45:09,000 Speaker 2: one more college season. I gotta tell you he should 2005 01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:13,120 Speaker 2: have probably taken it. Won't He won't get that much 2006 01:45:13,120 --> 01:45:15,960 Speaker 2: in the NFL, right, not out of the gate eight 2007 01:45:16,040 --> 01:45:18,439 Speaker 2: million and he could hone his craft one more year. 2008 01:45:19,040 --> 01:45:22,559 Speaker 2: So all of a sudden, you know, the nil and 2009 01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:26,160 Speaker 2: the transfer portal forget wild West. I mean it's it's 2010 01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:29,000 Speaker 2: this is just you know, bank robbery for crying out 2011 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:32,880 Speaker 2: lows loud. Okay, And in case you missed it, you know, 2012 01:45:33,320 --> 01:45:35,840 Speaker 2: for all the knuckleheads it said Ryan Day was in trouble. 2013 01:45:35,880 --> 01:45:39,040 Speaker 2: He was never in trouble. He was never in trouble. 2014 01:45:39,680 --> 01:45:41,599 Speaker 2: They wouldn't have liked it if he lost to Tennessee. 2015 01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:43,840 Speaker 2: They already hated it when he lost to Michigan. But 2016 01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:46,919 Speaker 2: you know they weren't going to bust up their incoming class, 2017 01:45:47,920 --> 01:45:50,439 Speaker 2: and they weren't going to run the risk of having 2018 01:45:50,439 --> 01:45:53,040 Speaker 2: a bunch of players who already on that roster transfer 2019 01:45:53,760 --> 01:45:57,160 Speaker 2: because in this day and age, man transferring out is 2020 01:45:57,200 --> 01:46:00,439 Speaker 2: like you know, finding a parking spot doesn't take law. 2021 01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 2: Just it all culminated because Ohio State spent twenty million 2022 01:46:06,160 --> 01:46:10,320 Speaker 2: nil money on their roster last year, all right, and 2023 01:46:10,360 --> 01:46:15,280 Speaker 2: they ended up winning a national championship. We believe that 2024 01:46:15,320 --> 01:46:17,200 Speaker 2: it was the biggest payroll, one of the two biggest 2025 01:46:17,280 --> 01:46:20,639 Speaker 2: nil payrolls that season. Yes, payroll. So here's where we're 2026 01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:23,880 Speaker 2: at right now, the entire an anile system. Excuse me, 2027 01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:26,720 Speaker 2: it's looking like it's a way station. It's just a 2028 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:32,000 Speaker 2: stopgap until schools start to involve in revenue sharing with players. 2029 01:46:32,960 --> 01:46:37,000 Speaker 2: And I believe the House versus NCAA settlement is about 2030 01:46:37,040 --> 01:46:44,280 Speaker 2: to be adjudicated. Opponents had until yesterday, today's February first. 2031 01:46:44,280 --> 01:46:48,040 Speaker 2: Now they until yesterday, January thirty first to file their grievances. 2032 01:46:48,040 --> 01:46:51,360 Speaker 2: But for now, this whole nil system pay for play, 2033 01:46:51,960 --> 01:46:56,200 Speaker 2: call it a system. It's very generous. It's carnival. It's 2034 01:46:56,240 --> 01:46:58,920 Speaker 2: the new normal. That's the way it is. You don't 2035 01:46:59,000 --> 01:47:02,080 Speaker 2: like it, you do about it. And because this is 2036 01:47:02,120 --> 01:47:05,799 Speaker 2: the new normal. The biggest distinguishing factor between college sports 2037 01:47:05,840 --> 01:47:08,799 Speaker 2: and the pros is now this. You're just a regular Joe. 2038 01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:12,120 Speaker 2: You can't go to the Cincinnati Bengals and say I'll 2039 01:47:12,120 --> 01:47:14,639 Speaker 2: give you ten million, go get this guy. You can, though, 2040 01:47:14,800 --> 01:47:18,439 Speaker 2: directly contribute to your school and help them recruit new stars. 2041 01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:21,759 Speaker 2: You can't personally give a million dollars to your favorite 2042 01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:24,360 Speaker 2: NFL team or your favorite NBA team and say go 2043 01:47:24,400 --> 01:47:26,880 Speaker 2: out and get this guy. But you can give a 2044 01:47:26,880 --> 01:47:30,280 Speaker 2: million dollars to your alma mater and they're anil collective, 2045 01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:33,519 Speaker 2: so they can go buy a new quarterback or hell, 2046 01:47:33,600 --> 01:47:38,080 Speaker 2: running back or power forward for that matter. Now I 2047 01:47:38,120 --> 01:47:39,920 Speaker 2: get it. You say, well, you can't do that. You're 2048 01:47:39,920 --> 01:47:43,639 Speaker 2: not a multimillionaire. Only the ultra rich can do that, right, Well, 2049 01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:47,639 Speaker 2: that's true, But do you have any idea how many 2050 01:47:47,760 --> 01:47:54,920 Speaker 2: ultra rich alumni are floating around at various schools? All right, smu, 2051 01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:59,639 Speaker 2: There in Dallas they got nil collectives that are oil bearings, 2052 01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:02,200 Speaker 2: all right, they probably carry around eight million dollars in 2053 01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:06,120 Speaker 2: their wallet. Did you forget who the big benefactor is 2054 01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:09,280 Speaker 2: at Oregon? A guy by the name of Phil Knight, 2055 01:48:09,320 --> 01:48:12,800 Speaker 2: who founded a company called Nike. And now we come 2056 01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:16,920 Speaker 2: back to Michigan. What do you think Michigan got that 2057 01:48:16,960 --> 01:48:22,679 Speaker 2: twelve million dollars? All right, Larry Ellison, who I believe 2058 01:48:22,680 --> 01:48:26,880 Speaker 2: was one of the founders of Oracle, who's a billionaire, billionaire. 2059 01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:30,080 Speaker 2: You know how much money a billion dollars is. We 2060 01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:34,639 Speaker 2: hear numbers, Okay, we hear numbers. I'm going to give 2061 01:48:34,640 --> 01:48:37,640 Speaker 2: you some perspective because you're underestimating how much money a 2062 01:48:37,680 --> 01:48:41,400 Speaker 2: billion dollars is. If you started a count from one 2063 01:48:41,439 --> 01:48:44,479 Speaker 2: to a million, one second at a time, they would 2064 01:48:44,479 --> 01:48:47,800 Speaker 2: take twelve days. If you started to acount from one 2065 01:48:47,840 --> 01:48:51,479 Speaker 2: to a billion one second at a time, that twelve 2066 01:48:51,520 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 2: days jumps to thirty three years. Twelve days, thirty three years. 2067 01:48:57,920 --> 01:49:01,600 Speaker 2: A billion is one thousand million. Larry Ellison's a billionaire 2068 01:49:02,479 --> 01:49:05,360 Speaker 2: and his wife went to Michigan and they say, we 2069 01:49:05,520 --> 01:49:07,679 Speaker 2: got to buy a quarterback, and that's why they gave 2070 01:49:07,720 --> 01:49:12,880 Speaker 2: twelve million dollars to Hugh Bryce Underwood. We'll see how 2071 01:49:12,880 --> 01:49:16,920 Speaker 2: it works. By the way, Saint John's University a very 2072 01:49:16,920 --> 01:49:20,800 Speaker 2: respected university. They don't even have football team, but they 2073 01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:24,920 Speaker 2: got billionaires too, Vitamin water founder Micropole. So even if 2074 01:49:24,960 --> 01:49:27,800 Speaker 2: you're a part, you want to be involved, and you 2075 01:49:27,840 --> 01:49:31,000 Speaker 2: don't have Larry Ellison money or phild Knight money or 2076 01:49:31,080 --> 01:49:35,360 Speaker 2: right on down the line, you can still contribute. Here's 2077 01:49:35,400 --> 01:49:38,120 Speaker 2: the thing, and I'm waiting to see this. I don't 2078 01:49:38,240 --> 01:49:41,400 Speaker 2: know how long this lasts. I don't know a lot 2079 01:49:41,439 --> 01:49:44,080 Speaker 2: of wealthy people who want to give money away without 2080 01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:47,200 Speaker 2: some sort of serious return on investment. This is a gamble. 2081 01:49:48,640 --> 01:49:51,479 Speaker 2: This is a gamble. He could lead to a national title, 2082 01:49:52,040 --> 01:49:54,160 Speaker 2: or the player could get hurt, or the player could 2083 01:49:54,680 --> 01:49:57,679 Speaker 2: be one and done and say I'm out of here, okay, 2084 01:49:58,280 --> 01:50:02,479 Speaker 2: or both after three games. It may feel like ancient 2085 01:50:02,520 --> 01:50:07,400 Speaker 2: history now, but it's not earlier. This season, MaTx Luca, 2086 01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:11,479 Speaker 2: a quarterback at UNLV who transferred it from Holy Cross, 2087 01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:16,040 Speaker 2: who allegedly, by his own description, was offered one hundred 2088 01:50:16,040 --> 01:50:19,720 Speaker 2: thousand dollars to come to UNLV, got the team to 2089 01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:23,840 Speaker 2: a three and zero start and abruptly announced he'd sit 2090 01:50:23,920 --> 01:50:27,840 Speaker 2: out the rest of the season over quote nil representations 2091 01:50:27,880 --> 01:50:32,880 Speaker 2: he said weren't fulfilled. So this isn't all peaches and cream. 2092 01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:39,000 Speaker 2: One source that works for Front Office Sports apparently he 2093 01:50:39,160 --> 01:50:43,519 Speaker 2: donated a few thousand dollars to the Vanderbilt nil collective 2094 01:50:43,520 --> 01:50:48,000 Speaker 2: two years ago, obviously before nil prices reached this crazy 2095 01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:52,000 Speaker 2: fever pitch that it's almost impossible to get your mind around. 2096 01:50:52,800 --> 01:50:56,439 Speaker 2: I was told it was going directly to a specific player, who, 2097 01:50:56,520 --> 01:51:00,800 Speaker 2: according to the source, got about twenty thousand nil money 2098 01:51:00,840 --> 01:51:04,080 Speaker 2: from the collector. But six weeks later that player says, hey, 2099 01:51:05,280 --> 01:51:07,360 Speaker 2: this is all alleged. I can't prove this is his 2100 01:51:07,479 --> 01:51:11,160 Speaker 2: reports I hear. So he gets twenty thousand dollars from 2101 01:51:11,200 --> 01:51:15,840 Speaker 2: a benefactor that wanted to see Vanderbilt do well, and 2102 01:51:15,920 --> 01:51:17,559 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, six weeks later he says, hey, 2103 01:51:17,640 --> 01:51:20,280 Speaker 2: Georgia came calling. They're going to give me two hundred 2104 01:51:20,680 --> 01:51:25,040 Speaker 2: one thousand. And the source allegedly said, I wait a minute, 2105 01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:28,759 Speaker 2: what about my money? Do I get it back? And 2106 01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:31,000 Speaker 2: somebody who raised the money for the collector says, ah, 2107 01:51:31,000 --> 01:51:33,479 Speaker 2: that's a good question. I don't know, but I don't 2108 01:51:33,520 --> 01:51:36,439 Speaker 2: think so. How'd you like to be that guy? Now 2109 01:51:36,920 --> 01:51:40,880 Speaker 2: back to Ohio State, Their massive payroll delivered the Buckeyes 2110 01:51:40,920 --> 01:51:46,439 Speaker 2: their first championship of the newly created twelve team playoff era. 2111 01:51:47,600 --> 01:51:49,960 Speaker 2: But as a guy named Matt Brown wrote for the 2112 01:51:50,040 --> 01:51:52,880 Speaker 2: front off of Sports, the big price tag doesn't tell 2113 01:51:52,920 --> 01:51:56,360 Speaker 2: the whole story. By the way, Oregon, which also had 2114 01:51:56,360 --> 01:51:58,760 Speaker 2: an eight figure in asle roster, didn't even make it 2115 01:51:58,840 --> 01:52:01,360 Speaker 2: past the second round. So he pays your money. It 2116 01:52:01,400 --> 01:52:03,840 Speaker 2: takes your chances. In this new world of nil and 2117 01:52:03,880 --> 01:52:07,439 Speaker 2: Collin sports recruiting. Cash buys you nothing. It buys you 2118 01:52:07,479 --> 01:52:10,559 Speaker 2: a gamble. It doesn't guarantee victory, but you'd rather have 2119 01:52:10,640 --> 01:52:13,360 Speaker 2: it than not have it. Come it up. Some very 2120 01:52:13,360 --> 01:52:17,360 Speaker 2: disturbing news coming out of the NBA. We'll tell you 2121 01:52:17,360 --> 01:52:19,080 Speaker 2: about it. I'm Bernie Fraddle.

I don't have any details, but we're 2145 01:53:44,280 --> 01:53:48,719 Speaker 2: watching this. And in addition to again, former NBA player 2146 01:53:48,880 --> 01:53:52,439 Speaker 2: John Tay Porter who was just banned from the league 2147 01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:55,639 Speaker 2: for life last year as well he should be if 2148 01:53:55,640 --> 01:53:58,280 Speaker 2: you know the story, well, all of a sudden, the 2149 01:53:58,320 --> 01:54:02,519 Speaker 2: investigators are starting to look in new performances of other 2150 01:54:02,720 --> 01:54:06,719 Speaker 2: NBA players, and sources say that Terry Rozier, he currently 2151 01:54:06,800 --> 01:54:09,800 Speaker 2: played for the Miami Heat, is a subject of certain 2152 01:54:09,880 --> 01:54:13,639 Speaker 2: scrutiny dating back to his time with the Charlotte Hornets 2153 01:54:13,680 --> 01:54:17,080 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three. Now Rosier has been in the 2154 01:54:17,160 --> 01:54:21,000 Speaker 2: league eleven years. He's a decent player, fourteen point a 2155 01:54:21,040 --> 01:54:25,200 Speaker 2: game guy, and he's you know, more prominent than John 2156 01:54:25,280 --> 01:54:27,960 Speaker 2: Day Porter was, but he's still basically a bench player. 2157 01:54:29,240 --> 01:54:32,320 Speaker 2: And Ford was, you know, the guy, a three point 2158 01:54:32,320 --> 01:54:35,480 Speaker 2: a game guy in parts of two seasons. And the 2159 01:54:35,520 --> 01:54:40,800 Speaker 2: Porter case arose after he allegedly, you know, had amassed 2160 01:54:41,520 --> 01:54:46,480 Speaker 2: significant gambling debts by about this time last year is 2161 01:54:46,480 --> 01:54:48,920 Speaker 2: when it was reported, and in order to have the 2162 01:54:48,960 --> 01:54:54,200 Speaker 2: debts forgiven, allegedly, Porter agreed to leave certain games early 2163 01:54:54,880 --> 01:54:57,080 Speaker 2: to ensure the success of prop bets that he would 2164 01:54:57,120 --> 01:54:59,960 Speaker 2: underperform expectations. So what do we mean by that. Let's 2165 01:55:00,200 --> 01:55:03,400 Speaker 2: there was a prop at that terry that John Tay 2166 01:55:03,440 --> 01:55:05,960 Speaker 2: Porter would be involved in and you could bet that 2167 01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:08,840 Speaker 2: he would have over or under, say two and a 2168 01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:12,680 Speaker 2: half rebounds, and before he got to you'd bet the under, 2169 01:55:12,720 --> 01:55:17,000 Speaker 2: and he would you know, allegedly communicate to betters, hey, 2170 01:55:17,520 --> 01:55:20,080 Speaker 2: you know, go under tonight, and he would leave the 2171 01:55:20,120 --> 01:55:23,400 Speaker 2: game for whatever reason well before he got the two 2172 01:55:23,440 --> 01:55:27,160 Speaker 2: rebounds and betters could cash. And I heard their stories. 2173 01:55:27,280 --> 01:55:33,320 Speaker 2: They the the the forensic evidence allegedly found texts that said, Hey, 2174 01:55:33,320 --> 01:55:35,320 Speaker 2: I'm out of the game now blah blah blah. Well, 2175 01:55:35,360 --> 01:55:40,680 Speaker 2: this is getting serious, Okay. Apparently the Eastern District Pennsylvania, 2176 01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:44,560 Speaker 2: the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, excuse me, the US Attorney's 2177 01:55:44,560 --> 01:55:49,440 Speaker 2: Office is not handling these inquiries into some very suspicious wagering, 2178 01:55:50,160 --> 01:55:52,960 Speaker 2: which these things are monitored, including by companies. My buddy 2179 01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:57,360 Speaker 2: Mett Hope founded US Integrity, and now they're handling an 2180 01:55:57,360 --> 01:56:02,120 Speaker 2: inquiry into at least one particular Temple men's university basketball 2181 01:56:02,160 --> 01:56:05,760 Speaker 2: game last March against Alabama Birmingham. And in that game, 2182 01:56:06,320 --> 01:56:10,560 Speaker 2: the first half wagering line jumped from University of Alabama 2183 01:56:11,360 --> 01:56:14,000 Speaker 2: being favored by one and a half points to them 2184 01:56:14,080 --> 01:56:17,640 Speaker 2: being favored by eight points, which prompted an alert to 2185 01:56:17,680 --> 01:56:20,760 Speaker 2: be sent out from the monitoring service I just mentioned 2186 01:56:20,840 --> 01:56:26,600 Speaker 2: US Integrity. Some betting outlets stopped accepting wagers on the game, which, oh, 2187 01:56:26,680 --> 01:56:30,000 Speaker 2: by the way, UAB won by twenty eight points after 2188 01:56:30,120 --> 01:56:34,240 Speaker 2: leading by fifteen points at halftime. You get the feelings 2189 01:56:34,240 --> 01:56:37,800 Speaker 2: somebody knew something. A player at the center of that inquiry, 2190 01:56:38,000 --> 01:56:41,800 Speaker 2: allegedly his former Temple guard named Fab Miller, who was 2191 01:56:41,840 --> 01:56:46,240 Speaker 2: the OWLS leading scorer last season. Miller scored eight points, 2192 01:56:46,240 --> 01:56:49,040 Speaker 2: committed three toners in the game, made three to nine 2193 01:56:49,080 --> 01:56:52,640 Speaker 2: field goals. He transferred from Temple to Virginia Tech during 2194 01:56:52,640 --> 01:56:55,800 Speaker 2: the offseason, but was dismissed by Virginia Tech before the 2195 01:56:55,840 --> 01:56:59,880 Speaker 2: season began for what the school said where quote circumstances 2196 01:57:00,120 --> 01:57:04,680 Speaker 2: before his enrollment at Virginia Tech. So you've got the 2197 01:57:04,760 --> 01:57:08,200 Speaker 2: college game being looked at. You already saw what happened 2198 01:57:08,240 --> 01:57:14,400 Speaker 2: with Johnte Porter getting looked at, and now you have 2199 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:17,920 Speaker 2: a guard who currently plays for the Miami Heat named 2200 01:57:18,000 --> 01:57:21,640 Speaker 2: Terry Rozier. All this, I'm sure is quite concerning to 2201 01:57:22,000 --> 01:57:28,480 Speaker 2: Commissioner Adam Silver, who in any major league, in any 2202 01:57:28,520 --> 01:57:33,520 Speaker 2: major league, wants to ensure that their product and the 2203 01:57:33,560 --> 01:57:37,600 Speaker 2: integrator of the outcome is honest. So there are not 2204 01:57:37,800 --> 01:57:40,480 Speaker 2: just one, but numerous investigations underway, and I think it's 2205 01:57:40,520 --> 01:57:44,240 Speaker 2: safe to say things that are starting to get a 2206 01:57:44,240 --> 01:57:47,080 Speaker 2: little ugly. This is serious business. I'm looking for more 2207 01:57:47,120 --> 01:57:50,680 Speaker 2: rope to tage on this. Remember, gambling was legalized in 2208 01:57:50,720 --> 01:57:53,720 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen and thirty two states are on board, and 2209 01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:56,520 Speaker 2: for the most part it's been pretty good. But these 2210 01:57:56,560 --> 01:57:59,200 Speaker 2: things start to raise eyebrowns. And these are stories we're 2211 01:57:59,240 --> 01:58:02,120 Speaker 2: going to continue to follow, including Saturday night, when I'm 2212 01:58:02,160 --> 01:58:05,040 Speaker 2: back on these airwaves at eleven PM sit for the 2213 01:58:05,080 --> 01:58:07,280 Speaker 2: Bernie Frider Show. Keep it locked up next to Fellas 2214 01:58:07,360 --> 01:58:08,200 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio
