Speaker 1: in my headsets just.

11
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 3: Exploded in my ears. Wait a second, I take that back.

12
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 3: I'm going to say that differently. It was very loud

13
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 3: in my ears.

14
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,279

16
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: Era's at studio with me. Taylor is on the zoom today,

17
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: not in the studio. Mikey ad studio, not in the studio.

18
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: He's on the zoom as well. It's been a two weeks.

19
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, Mikey A I try. First off,

20
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing is that

21
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: I still have the key card to get into this place.

22
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 3: Wow, okay, the thing I lost it first day Yes.

23
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: The least shocking thing is instead of using the key

24
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: card to try to get into the doors today, I

25
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: use my Super Bowl credential.

26
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 3: Radio row Baby, it sho gets you anywhere.

27
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just I mean, it's it's three time zones.

28
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: Mikey A is wiping down his computer screen. Taylor can't

29
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: get to work. We are a mess around here.

30
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: I feel like this is Taylor's fault. Where were you

31
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 3: all this time? You should have been able to find

32
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 3: the place to live?

33
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: So right now is he?

34
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 4: Thank you for asking? I am import St. Lucy doing

35
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 4: some METS reporting. Sounds like I guess that final spot

36
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 4: in the rotation between Sean and Iah, Clay Holmes, Cot

37
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 4: Senga and Jonah Hong.

38
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: If you were to to us from Port Saint Lucy

39
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: without your microphone, there'd be a better chance of us

40
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: making out what it is you just said.

41
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 3: I think you said something about baseball. Then I immediately

42
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 3: fell asleep.

43
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 5: You know, Taylor was all high and mighty when it

44
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 5: wasn't him on the switch plade.

45
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: But Taylor did send me something very funny. We'll get

46
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 1: to the NBA, We'll get to everything going on with

47
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. As well. We recorded our podcast today

Speaker 1: you get your podcast. God Bless football as well. We're

50
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: live on YouTube here. Taylor Taylor. Taylor put it on

51
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: the poll. Does sports radio use the NFL offseason to

52
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: fix all the other seasons? It's what we do. And

53
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: this is coming from the author of Magic at Bat

54
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, where I told Rob Manford it would

55
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: be a good idea if you know, once per game

56
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: a manager could use a magic at bat for a guy.

57
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: Let's say Aaron Judge comes up in the ninth, he's

58
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: the first batter, he gets it out, Yankees are down

59
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: by two, a runner gets on. They could put Aaron

60
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: Judge back in the game for a magic at bat,

61
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: a second at bat within that inning. And so I

62
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: get fixing the leagues. But it seems like the second

63
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: the NFL stops is he because that league is perfect.

64
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: We don't need to fix that league the kickoff, Well,

65
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: maybe that, but we spend we spend our time from

66
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: the end of the NFL season until the next NFL

67
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: season fixing everything. The Dunk competition, the NBA All Star Game.

68
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: I tried to fix golf once. I mean, we'll try

69
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: to fix the hot dog eating contest come July. When

70
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: it's just me, you, Baseball, and Joey Chestnutt. That's all

71
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: we have to talk about. We're lazy, you know how

72
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: right you are.

73
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 3: Not only did they try to fix every other sport,

74
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 3: but apparently the last few years they did spend too

75
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 3: much time on their own sport because the kickoff thing

76
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,119
Speaker 3: has just gotten ridiculous. So it's just like, now, let's

77
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: just focus on other sports well before we make our

78
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 3: sport look too.

79
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: Wecked by the way. Dan Bayer is going to come

80
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: in later. Now. He is not doing the updates today,

81
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 1: but he was filling in for us. And did you

82
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: know that he plays a game when he fills in

83
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: called odds and Ends.

84
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 3: Not only did I not know this, but I had

85
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 3: no idea you would be this excited.

86
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: Yes, mikey A, I had the same reaction. He played

87
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: this game. We were off he was filling in for us. Also,

88
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 1: did you know that Kerry Rhoades works here? I was

89
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: shocked to v Kerry Roads. Yes, never been offered to us,

90
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: but he works here and we can get him apparently.

91
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: But Dan was playing Odds and Ends, and so I

92
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: have asked Dan to come in. He'll be in in

93
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: about an hour or so to explain the game to us,

94
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: and hopefully we will play said game Odds and Ends.

95
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 1: I was excited.

96
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 3: I mean, what do you imagine this is?

97
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: I don't care. I didn't ask any questions. Yes, I

98
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 1: just said, can you explain the game to us? And

99
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: I might ask if we play it in the next segment?

100
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: How about that? So we have that to look forward to.

101
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 3: Okay, and we're playing this with or without Dan Byer.

102
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: Well, we need Dan to play it. He's the host

103
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: of the game. It's his game. I don't want to

104
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: steal his game.

105
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, good luck finding him.

106
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: Well, we'll be here at about an hour. Taylor did

107
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: send me, and I hope the guys back in Sherman

108
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: have it. Sherman, Oak, California is what I'm talking about

109
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: when I say that Taylor did send me some funny

110
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: sound here of Dan Byer filling in. It wasn't with

111
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: Kerry Rhodes. And I want to just play the sound

112
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: for you guys and see if you notice what me

113
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: and Taylor noticed when we played the sound. So, guys,

114
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: if you have it back there, I think you know

115
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Please play the sound. I'm being listen,

116
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: I am being super secretive because I don't want to

117
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: give away what it is. I want you guys to

118
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,040
Speaker 1: figure out why it is. I felt the need to

119
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 1: play this sound. Okay, so guys back in, guys back

120
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: at Sherman Oaks fired off. Go ahead.

121
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 6: I think it's a It's an interesting thing that he

122
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 6: was the one that did it, because I'm just thinking,

123
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 6: like if Scottie Barnes came out and was like, I'm

124
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 6: going balls to the you know what, like I don't

125
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 6: know that, Lebron and everybody. But but again, Wemby is

126
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 6: one of the few guys that can literally embarrass you

127
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 6: if you're not trying.

128
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 1: Wow.

129
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 3: Wait, I'm so confused by this. First of all, what

130
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 3: is he referencing?

131
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: Who? Who did he?

132
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 3: Who is he referencing that said something that they shouldn't

133
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 3: have said?

134
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:35,159
Speaker 1: Right?

135
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 3: Do we have any idea what?

136
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: That is?

137
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 3: Probably not that important.

138
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: Okay, but literally I'm playing it off my phone.

139
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 7: I've been playing it all day.

140
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: Scott go ahead. I can't get it off. Unbelievable. The

141
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 1: start of this show has been next level.

142
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 3: Yes, it's been crazy.

143
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: I love it. But yeah, go ahead and ask your question.

144
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: When somebody says and the phrase that he would with

145
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 3: was balls to the you know what.

146
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 8: That makes it so much worse than what it really

147
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 8: is because that you know what if you know the

148
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 8: saying of course is the wall, Yes, but.

149
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 3: It could be anything. You know when he's saying that,

150
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 3: you know what your ass is?

151
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: You know what?

152
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 5: I did not realize we needed to bleep the W word.

153
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 3: I don't know what's on that wall that makes you

154
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 3: want to have to bleep it. Yes, but it's you know,

155
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 3: the balls that are the problem in the sentence.

156
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 5: From the window to the bleep.

157
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 1: Yes, I think Taylor has it as the most useless

158
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: censoring of all time.

159
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 7: I'm going balls to the you know what?

160
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 3: But again, you know he means wall. But then you

161
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 3: scratch your head and say, does he mean something else?

162
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 3: Because it could be anything else.

163
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,239
Speaker 1: It should be you know what to the wall?

164
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 5: Right, clutch my pearls. He said wall.

165
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: But if you are, nobody's going to assume I don't

166
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 3: know who this Who is this person who said this?

167
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: That's a good question, Aaron Torres.

168
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 3: Nobody's going to assume Aaron Torres is so dumb that

169
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 3: he doesn't recognize which one did. So he did clearly

170
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 3: made a mistake. But if you think he's doing this

171
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 3: on purpose, then you're like balls to the.

172
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,679
Speaker 1: What, sir, to the what?

173
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 7: One more time, Guys, I'm going balls to the you

174
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 7: know what?

175
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 3: When you say that, I don't know what the what is?

176
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 3: I don't because you can actually just say wall right.

177
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 1: That you know what.

178
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 3: Now I've got people thinking all kinds of things.

179
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:42,599
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

180
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 7: It's so I'm going balls to the you know what.

181
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: Listen to me. I want those guys filling in for

182
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: me every time we're out.

183
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 3: Okay, And I also just asked, now we're on this phrase,

184
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 3: what the hell does it mean? Because when I put

185
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: my you know what's to the wall, yeah, nothing happens.

186
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: Have you ever put them to the wall? No? I

187
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: mean no, you know what I mean.

188
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 3: I don't get more excited about doing anything. I don't

189
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 3: do anything harder or with more effort when I put

190
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 3: my you know what's to the wall, I actually have

191
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 3: never really done it because it feels like it's going

192
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 3: to hurt.

193
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 5: You can't go any further if they're on the W

194
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 5: word because you've gone as far as you can go.

195
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: Yes, I on the you know what. Yeah, if the

196
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: balls go to the you know what, that's it. It's

197
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: it's a hard stop and it hurts. Is he is right?

198
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: So you've done it? I have Yes, split your legs hoping. Yeah,

199
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: I have to get very close to that wall when

200
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 1: I go balls to the you know.

201
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 7: What, I'm going balls to the you know what?

202
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: Boom.

203
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 5: Can we fill in for them and just come up

204
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 5: with random words to censor ourselves.

205
00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 1: Sure, as long as the paycheck doesn't change, I'm good.

206
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. Yes, didn't.

207
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 3: They used to do this on TV where they would

208
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 3: bleep the whole part of the A hole And I'm like, well,

209
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 3: wait a second, I don't think that's the bad part

210
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 3: of the word.

211
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: I think.

212
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, because you were allowed

213
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 3: to say the A word on TV, then you just

214
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 3: bleep out the whole and all of a sudden, you're good.

215
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't, I don't think that that makes sense.

216
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. I am looking

217
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: forward to fixing all the sports until we get back

218
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 1: to football. We're fixing the NBA. We're fixing the draft,

219
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: We're trying to legislate no tanking in the NBA. It's

220
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: all ridiculous, it really is. I mean, I don't know. Listen,

221
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: the NBA All Star Game, by everyone's account, was a

222
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: big success over the weekend. It seems like they fixed it.

223
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: I fixed it. One guy who's young. He tried very hard,

224
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: he gave max effort. And the guy I'm talking about

225
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: is Victor webbin Yama.

226
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is this is so funny to me

227
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 3: because because for years and years and years we talked

228
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 3: about how to make the All Star Game a little

229
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: bit better. Feels like ever since Kobe stopped playing in them,

230
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 3: that there's zero form of competition involved. And when people say, oh,

231
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 3: Adam Silver fixed the All Star Game because he made

232
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 3: a USA versus World and these short games and that's

233
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 3: what made people try, right, No it didn't, No, I didn't.

234
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 3: It was one or two guys that said I'm going

235
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 3: to try, and then everybody else has to follow suit.

236
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 3: And if it's Victor Wenbinyama this time, great, he deserves

237
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 3: all the credit. Anthony Edwards said he was the guy

238
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,839
Speaker 3: who set the tone. Anthony Edwards said before the game,

239
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 3: he was just gonna coast and just do the normal thing.

240
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 3: And then Victor started playing hard, and then you got that,

241
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 3: and then Kawhi Leonard decided to put on I mean, honestly,

242
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 3: just a ridiculous display of basketball.

243
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: Like that guy.

244
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 3: He was playing against the regular season defense for the

245
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: most part and was lighting to thirty one points in

246
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 3: however many minutes that was was insane And the fact

247
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 3: that the defense was being played made that good, right,

248
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 3: because if somebody would have scored thirty one points in

249
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 3: a no defense All Star game in a quarter, who cares, right,

250
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 3: But in that game, it mattered. And so that's all

251
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 3: that mattered was the effort, not the format, not the

252
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 3: shorter games, not who necessarily did it. It could have

253
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 3: been anybody, but somebody needed to get that ball rolling,

254
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 3: and it was Vic.

255
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,599
Speaker 1: So all it took was a young superstar who was

256
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: willing to try. Yeah, that's it. And so here's the

257
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: flip side of that, that young superstar who is injury prone,

258
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: who is the face of the NBA, who is the

259
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 1: guy that the NBA could ill afford to lose to injury, right,

260
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: because he is the future of the NBA. We've never

261
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 1: seen anything like him. The second this goes the other

262
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: way is when he or someone is out there giving

263
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: max effort in an All Star game, tears an ACL

264
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 1: and is out for the season. That's what it goes.

265
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: The other they're exhibition games that don't need fixing. I

266
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: understand he tried. I understand that motivated other guys to try.

267
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 1: But Mark Cuban used to say, no, I don't want

268
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: my guys playing in the Olympics. I pay them to

269
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: play for me, and the owners think, hey, I pay

270
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: them to play for my organization, not necessarily the NBA.

271
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 1: And so it's great that women Yamba went out there

272
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 1: and he tried and gave max effort. But God forbid

273
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: that guy gets hurt and everyone starts criticizing him and

274
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: the coaching staff who played him, for him going all out,

275
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: for going balls to that.

276
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 3: You know what, Paul George had a bone sticking out

277
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 3: playing for Team USA. Anybody stop playing for tm USA

278
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 3: after that? Where the owners? Where's where the fans as

279
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 3: upset about? You know, a PACER's player, I believe at

280
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 3: the time getting injured doing an exhibition event. I don't

281
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 3: think so, and I don't think the way these guys train. Okay,

282
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 3: non like non uh what's the word. I'm looking forward?

283
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 3: Non impact injuries, right, Non contact injuries, they don't happen

284
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 3: that often, the severe ones, Right, These guys are you know,

285
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 3: training the right muscles, the right groups, and it's usually

286
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,319
Speaker 3: contact that creates those types of injuries. Like when you're

287
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 3: trying super hard, you think of you know, the Gordon

288
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 3: Hayward stuff like that that you can pretty much void

289
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 3: because they're not playing like it's Game seven, right, They're

290
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 3: playing like it's you know, maybe a preseason type of effort,

291
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 3: and so those types of things you're just not gonna

292
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 3: see them happen very regularly, and so the fear is

293
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 3: just kind of made up. It's not really there because, yes,

294
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: the Paul George thing happened, but again, they were playing

295
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 3: harder than preseason level of effort. They were playing you know,

296
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 3: I'm playing for my country level of effort, and that's

297
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 3: a whole different thing. So I just think it's, you know,

298
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 3: it would be at the moment a product of the results, right,

299
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: You're playing the results a little bit there, and I

300
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 3: think if that were to happen, it wouldn't be Oh,

301
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 3: we'll just continue the All Star Game and everybody just

302
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 3: play nice and don't compete. No, they'll just find a

303
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 3: way to cancel it all together and make it a

304
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 3: you know, basketball version of a flag football tournam.

305
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of Stu Godson Company

309
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: in that story.

310
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 3: It was just so like Real Housewives of Kansas City.

311
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 3: It was just very dramatic. It's like, no, they're mine, No,

312
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 3: they're mine, and it's just they're talking back and forth.

313
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 1: It seems pretty fun but also a little childish. Let's

314
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: go out to someone wants to explain balls to the walls.

315
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: I didn't realize there was some explaining to be done here,

316
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: go ahead.

317
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go ahead and guess it has something to

318
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 3: do with the military, because every time I'm confused by

319
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 3: a say, by a sentence or a saying or a phrase,

320
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 3: it's always something to do with military ties.

321
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: All right, Let's go out to Barry, who is in

322
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: Denver today. Thank you for calling in, Barry. Go ahead,

323
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: I love the show.

324
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 9: So from what I under stand, ball to the walls

325
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 9: like a nineteen.

326
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 1: Fifties era baseball term.

327
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 9: Where if a guy hits the ball to the outfield wall,

328
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 9: his first base coach is yelling balls to the wall, so.

329
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: He's running as hard as he can. Okay, but that

330
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: doesn't explain balls is better, I think?

331
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean I love it that it was a

332
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 3: baseball term, and it's just like, hey, maybe it's catching

333
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 3: a deep fly ball. But and this is going to

334
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 3: be rough for Taylor, right because Taylor can't really speak.

335
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: Taylor is playing a mute role today because when he

336
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 3: tries to speak, there's a drum procession going on behind him,

337
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 3: so he can't do it. So he wrote in the

338
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: chat that balls to the wall means throttle to the wall. Basically,

339
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 3: it's a military aviation term. And then he just said

340
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 3: ball shaped knobs, which I don't know if that's great

341
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 3: explanation when all you have is the chat. But he

342
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 3: can't explain himself any further.

343
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: So whatever isn't just balls to the walls?

344
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 3: Like Max effort, Yeah, see, yes, that's what it's meant

345
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 3: to mean. But we're trying to figure out the origin

346
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 3: of it, and why in the world somebody said that

347
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 3: putting balls to the wall is the equivalent of putting

348
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 3: out Mexico.

349
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: Well, I think the caller just had it. I mean

350
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: he did it.

351
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 5: By hitting warning track power.

352
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 3: In the nineteen fifties, it was a baseball term meaning

353
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 3: to go get that ball.

354
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: I don't think so when you think warning track power,

355
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: who do you think of? Is there a particular baseball

356
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: player that you think of? Taylor has one. Taylor, I

357
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 1: am tempted to turn on your mic because I know

358
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 1: you have one to see if you can squeeze two

359
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: words in that we could understand he's not gonna do it.

360
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 3: I've got Brett Boone presteroids. Ooh, pre steroids.

361
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 1: Yes, because he has that one. He has that one

362
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: year that just he does right, like Boone has a

363
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: Brady Anderson type year.

364
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 3: Well, there was a point where Brett Boone started like

365
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 3: his bat would break or he would break his bat

366
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 3: and would just like I don't know, he'd turn into

367
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 3: an angry or player than I remember. And yeah he was.

368
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 3: He was a little bit stopped for a while.

369
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm looking up Boone stats. If you're wondering what I

370
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: mean by Brady Anderson. If you look up his stats,

371
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: you'll see, you know, ten homers, twelve homers, fifteen homers,

372
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: seventeen homers, fifty one homers. What happened that year? I

373
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 1: don't know.

374
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 5: He went balls to the w.

375
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: Okay, you're ready. He was tired of going to the

376
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: warning track. He decided he wanted to hit it out

377
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: of the park.

378
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 3: I mean so not originated in baseball in the nineteen

379
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 3: fifties at all. Balls to the wall means acting with

380
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 3: maximum speed, effort, or intensity. Originating in military aviation during

381
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 3: World War Two and the Vietnam War. The phrase refers

382
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 3: to pilot's pushing throttle levers topped with ball shaped knobs

383
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 3: forward to the fire wall, the bulkhead or walls separating

384
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 3: the engine from the cockpit.

385
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: Wow, so you get balls exactly what in our shot? Yeah? Yeah,

386
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: it does exactly.

387
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 3: Very very confusing because how many people know about military

388
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 3: aviation details and how to get max throttle on that thing?

389
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 1: Come on, yep, let me read you Brett Boone year

390
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: by year.

391
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 3: Okay, this is Brett Boone, not Brady Anderson.

392
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: Right, Brady Anderson, we did. It's just seventeen sixteen, fourteen

393
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: fifty one. Here here's boone. Okay, just home runs is

394
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: he nineteen ninety two, four ninety three, twelve ninety four,

395
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: twelve ninety five, fifteen ninety six, twelve ninety seven, seven

396
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 1: ninety eight, twenty four, twenty nineteen thirty seven.

397
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 3: He was worn in track Power before that.

398
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 1: He followed up with twenty four, and then back in

399
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 1: the thirties. He didn't like that twenty stuff. Let's see

400
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,560
Speaker 1: if we can get back to the thirties. Let's go

401
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: to al in Albuquerque.

402
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Aul, how are you doing now?

403
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 9: You gotta say, is the seventh time long time you

404
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 9: guys started the show. You guys start the show with

405
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 9: Mikey h chuckling because of Tony Clark and Steve Gotts.

406
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 9: I don't know if you saw You're gonna do a

407
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 9: similar chuckle because I saw the headline Tiger Woods not

408
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 9: ready to rule out playing the masters.

409
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: How about that.

410
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 2: Jacket?

411
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 1: He's gonna yes, thank you. Al. When I presented Mikey

412
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: with the news that Tony Clark was stepping down as

413
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: the executive director of the MLBPA, he gave me no opinions.

414
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: He gave me nothing other than whoa.

415
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm just in there trying to find that out.

416
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 3: This is true, because if Tiger Wood is going to

417
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,679
Speaker 3: play in the Masters, we're going. I'm I was just

418
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 3: going to say I'll have it on all three TVs.

419
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 3: But now if you're saying we're going, I'm there.

420
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would like people to call in and make

421
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: a statement that makes me and mikeye go wha an

422
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: unreasonable laugh. Given the news Tiger Woods going back to

423
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 1: Augusta trying to get a six green jacket, He's not

424
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: gonna be able to do it. You're not gonna be

425
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: able to take that long off from golf. If you

426
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: remember the first time when he won his last Masters, Yeah,

427
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: he had played a couple before he actually won the Masters.

428
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: I would find it now. The storylines amazing him being

429
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 1: there makes it even more amazing. Okay, but there is

430
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: no way a guy who has been through what Tiger

431
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: has been through taking this much time off from golf,

432
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: goes back to Augusta for his first tournament and wins

433
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: that thing. Now, if he's in contention, we all win.

434
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: Right on Sunday, we all win. We'll be glued to it.

435
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: But I just can't see I can't see that happening,

436
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 1: but I do like that he's coming back. If indeed

437
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: that is true, I can't see it happening either.

438
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: I've seen him play with his bum leg too long

439
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 3: now to think that he can maintain any sort of

440
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 3: quality to win that tournament for four rounds. However, motivation

441
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,360
Speaker 3: is the son of a gun. And didn't Phil Mickelson

442
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 3: win his last major, the PGA. Wasn't he fifty fifty one?

443
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 3: I believe fifty one?

444
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: Kay?

445
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 3: He was either fifty or fifty one. He was in

446
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 3: that range. Tiger is fifty now, yes, right, he just

447
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 3: turned fifty.

448
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 1: Yes, And if Phil.

449
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 3: Can do it at fifty or fifty one, then he's

450
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 3: got to be able to do it in his mind.

451
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,119
Speaker 3: And so that's why he's not ruling it out, not

452
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 3: even just the Masters. I'm assuming that's his favorite, right,

453
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 3: That's the one I'm obviously not going to rule out.

454
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 3: But if you're not ruling out the Masters, that means

455
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 3: you're not ruling out the other majors either.

456
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: Well, that's interesting. We'll see if he plays in the

457
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: other majors. He's the Masters means the most to him,

458
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 1: It means the most to all the golfers. If you

459
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: ask him, what's the one major you want to win?

460
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: If they're being truthful, they will tell you they want

461
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: to win at Augusta. They want to win a Green jacket.

462
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: And so I think there is a chance where Tiger

463
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: comes back just to play in that thing because he

464
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: thinks if he teas it up there, he could win

465
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: it because he's won it five times and he knows

466
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 1: the courts very well. No one knows it better, you know.

467
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 1: So it's, uh, it's gonna be interesting, is he. What

468
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 1: do you make of the tanking situation in the NBA,

469
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: because for me, well, let's get your thoughts first. For me,

470
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: it's an easy fix.

471
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 3: You want me to fix it. I mean, I think

472
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 3: it is a huge problem for the league. I think

473
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 3: it is probably their biggest problem. You got Mark Cuban

474
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 3: over here saying that fans should embrace the tanking and

475
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 3: like almost cheer for their team to position themselves properly

476
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 3: and get the net. I just think it's like, it's

477
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 3: not how fandom works. Like I think I like the

478
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 3: idea of like, look as a Miami Heat follower growing up,

479
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 3: I really really I would say, got into them as

480
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,600
Speaker 3: a team in nineteen ninety five when pat Riley got there.

481
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 3: He's still there and there's still this constant it's basically

482
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 3: like a whole community push to get better. It's like, hey,

483
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 3: we know we're doing this for you. You guys are there

484
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 3: to support us. We're always going to try to be good.

485
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 3: Let's do this together, you know. It's just that community feel.

486
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 3: You get it a lot with you know, soccer in

487
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 3: the UK, with the Premier League and all their divisions.

488
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 1: It's very like.

489
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 3: Communal. It's just like a lot about the community around you.

490
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 3: And you get that sort of feeling with the right

491
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 3: franchises with these other franchises, some of them rather where

492
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 3: you're trying to create that same feeling, but you have

493
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 3: this tanking thing constantly, you lose the trust of the fans,

494
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 3: you lose the interest of the fans, and eventually you

495
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 3: just don't have the same relationship with them. And I

496
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 3: think that's just strictly the danger of it, Like eventually,

497
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 3: when you detach from the fans, when you have different interests,

498
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 3: you're not going to feel like you're going at the

499
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 3: same goal together. And I feel like that's where again

500
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 3: the fan just kind of pulls away and says, I'll

501
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 3: check the highlights, I'll see what I like about basketball,

502
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 3: but I don't feel that emotional attachment to my team anymore.

503
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: So, as it relates to more Cuban's comments about the

504
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: fans should embrace it, they should root for their team

505
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: to lose. I think he's right. I think the way

506
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: the league is legislated right now and the rules suggest that, Hey,

507
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: if you want to get better, the quickest way to

508
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: do so is by being bad and being really bad.

509
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 1: And so the rules are the rules. So Mark is

510
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 1: just saying, hey, if we're going to abide by the

511
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: rules of the worst team in the NBA gets the

512
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: top pick in the draft, of course you should root

513
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: for your team to lose or tank, for lack of

514
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: better term, tank the season because that's the quickest way

515
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: to making it to the playoffs, to getting your team

516
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: and organization back into contention.

517
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 3: If it was where you have a team like Miami.

518
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 3: I'm glad we use this example or I use this

519
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 3: example because if you don't do it regularly, right, if

520
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 3: you just have to come to terms with man this year,

521
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 3: we gotta do it like there's no you know, there's

522
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 3: no projection of us doing anything good, and if you

523
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 3: look at the draft, we could really change our fate

524
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 3: pretty quickly. Let's all lean in together, you know what

525
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 3: I mean. It was like suck for luck back in

526
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 3: the day, Like teams were like, all right, let's do

527
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 3: that because I'm good with one year.

528
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 10: Suck for the you know what, I'm going balls to

529
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 10: the you know what, suck for the Wall, what that

530
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 10: kind of stuff.

531
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I could get into it. But when you're a

532
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 3: team that has done it multiple times, when you are

533
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 3: the Washington Wizards, which you can't even figure out if

534
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 3: they're taking or not, or if they just lose all

535
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 3: the time. Right, that type off, that's where the danger is.

536
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 3: And when half the league is doing it, then you

537
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 3: might as well just get rid of half the league

538
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 3: because you're not really gonna have that connection to all

539
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 3: these fans. So while I do agree with Mark Cuban

540
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 3: and if you agree with them, great, Like for a

541
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 3: team like I don't know, the San Antonio Spurs over

542
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 3: the years, Hey, one of these years, let's tank for

543
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: Tim Duncan Boom.

544
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: It worked great.

545
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, now they're back right back on board. Right that

546
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 3: I'm okay with. That's part of you know, sports in general,

547
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 3: when you have new people coming in and roster turnover

548
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 3: through the draft, But to constantly be doing it and

549
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 3: then hope you get lucky one out of those I

550
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,719
Speaker 3: don't know ten times over twenty years that you're purposely losing.

551
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 3: Come on, like, that's just not a fun league to follow.

552
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: With the Spurs, was that more a lucky injury to

553
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,679
Speaker 1: David Robinson. They weren't trying to tank, and when you

554
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: have David Robinson, you're trying to win. Robinson happened to

555
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 1: get hurt, They got the number one pick in the draft,

556
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 1: and they ended up so regardless.

557
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 3: Of the circumstances that when it was to David Robinson injury,

558
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 3: but with another team or even like the Miami Heat

559
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 3: in the year after that they won the championship where

560
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 3: Dwayne Wade gets his shoulder injury and is not the

561
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,360
Speaker 3: same player, you could look at yourselves and say, hey,

562
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 3: I think even the fans would be okay with us

563
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 3: tanking this, and then they you know, conceivably, let's just

564
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 3: go back in time. Have the worst reck in the league,

565
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 3: get that number one pick, Get Dereck Rose. Pair Dereck

566
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 3: Rose with you know, Dwayne Wade and the rest is history.

567
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 3: What could have happened there? So yeah, I totally understand

568
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 3: what he's saying with that. But when half the league's

569
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 3: doing it and you can't, you can't have a race

570
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 3: to the bottom. It's just not fun.

571
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: Right, Let's go to what Tony who was in Wisconsin today? Tony,

572
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 1: go ahead, Mike from Wisconsin. All right, Sorry, sorry about that,

573
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 1: no matter problem.

574
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 9: I just wanted to comment on the.

575
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 2: Balls to the you know what. I believe you know

576
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 2: what should have been bleeded leaped out only because you

577
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 2: know what can be rocked, screwed, or nailed.

578
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 3: H Yeah, yeah, no, be wrecked, screwed or nailed. Yeah,

579
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 3: well can be all of those days.

580
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: It's a terrible it's a it's a terrible job of

581
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 1: self censoring.

582
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 3: Yourself, self censoring yourself.

583
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 7: Balls to the you know what, I'm going to balls

584
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 7: to the you know what.

Speaker 1: I want him on the show. I'm so thankful he

586
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: did it. Uh, he should probably be the one explaining

587
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: why he chose to censor himself during that portion of this.

Speaker 1: ninety nine on Fox. Taylor has left the Zoom. Now

602
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: he's in Port Saint Lucie covering the Mets for spring training.

603
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 3: That's Florida for those who don't know.

604
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: Yes, Mikeya is still here on the Zoom. I am

605
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: being told, and I promised the audience I would I

606
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: would not hold back. I would discuss things as they

607
00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: happen on the air. I am told we have been

608
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: denied credentials here for the World Baseball Classic and Fox

609
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: is the network for the World Baseball Classic. And so,

610
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: mikey A, do you have any more on this story?

611
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: Because I know it's something Taylor wanted to cover. I

612
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: think we were denied locally, which means I need to

613
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: get someone nationally to take care of business. Someone, get

614
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: me Tom Ferducci.

615
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 3: Why did we want to go to the World Baseball Classic.

616
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: I did not, Taylor did. That's I I'm glad we

617
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: were denied.

618
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 5: Okay, so maybe the WEI is a little relative there.

619
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: Yes, Taylor was denied access to the World Baseball Classic. Yes,

620
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: local access through the local affiliate here. But we still

621
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: have a shot nationally. Again, get me Forducci.

622
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 3: I mean it is confusing with Taylor because I'm sure

623
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 3: sometimes he's not sure if he's you, You're not sure

624
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 3: if you're him, because he is basically costplaying you at

625
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 3: all times.

626
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: It's got to be exhausting, is he. Tarik Hill was

627
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 1: let go by the Dolphins Bradley Chubb. Also, the Dolphins

628
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,719
Speaker 1: are rebuilding. There was a fake account that said Jalen

629
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: Wattle went to the Dolphin brass and said, quote me next.

630
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:15,479
Speaker 3: We'll see how fake that is.

631
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 1: Well, Jalen addressed it. He did, he addressed it. But

632
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 1: if you're Jalen Wattle, the sixth pick in the draft

633
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: of you know, four or five years ago, I think

634
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: who's had a great start to his career, why would

635
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: you want to stay?

636
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 3: Well, not only that, but you know, I think of

637
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 3: Devon a Chan as well, right, Like those two guys

638
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 3: have been a Chan more than Waddle, have been really

639
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 3: carrying that team for the last year and a half.

640
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 3: And I don't know if this actually stays stands true

641
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 3: for some of these NBA or NFL players, right, feel

642
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 3: do you have to feel like every season you go

643
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 3: into you've got a chance to do something maybe not

644
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 3: super Bowl special, but interesting?

645
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 1: Right?

646
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 3: Because I play flag football, every tournament I go into,

647
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 3: I find myself convincing. I think we can win this thing.

648
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: So I think the beauty of the NFL and why

649
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: it's the best of all the sports, and it's why

650
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: baseball wants a salary cap is every fan base goes it.

651
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: Even Jet fans go into every well maybe not Jet fans,

652
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 1: but just about every fan base goes into the season

653
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: thinking this could be my year. If we get a

654
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 1: bounce here, if we get a break there. Fans, yes,

655
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: this could be the year where we make it to

656
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: the playoffs. And once you make it to the playoffs,

657
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: anything could happen. And so I think that's why the

658
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: NFL kind of kind of has Yeah, I'm just thinking

659
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: about in terms of the athletes themselves. Right, So Devon

660
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: h Chan is a running back who has, you know,

661
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: a limit on how many carries his body's going to

662
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 1: be able to handle, and for you know, at that

663
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: level where he is entering year four, which is pretty

664
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: critical for running back, and he is probably going to

665
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 1: be utilized as their top option. Do you really want

666
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 1: to go into a season with absolutely no hope where

667
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: they're just using you for what, just to get to

668
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: the next week, to get to the next season, right,

669
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 1: just to pad your career stats like that?

670
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 3: To me, if I'm a player, I have no interest

671
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 3: in doing that. I don't care what point of my

672
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 3: career I'm at.

673
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 1: So what is he saying is your ah Chan, They're

674
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 1: going to run you four hundred thousand times next year

675
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: because they have you on the contract. It's a big

676
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: year on your contract. Do you want to do that

677
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: knowing your team's not going to be very good? In

678
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 1: all likelihood your team's not going to be that good,

679
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: and then you have all the wear and tear on

680
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: your body. So the answer is, I mean he has

681
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: to do it? What other option does he have?

682
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 3: You know he would be I would say a chan

683
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 3: would be the player, the type of player in going

684
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 3: into the fourth year with that type of dynamic ability

685
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 3: that can say, all right, fine, I will have a

686
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 3: tremendous season and you know, build up my value going

687
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 3: forward and just trust that I will hold up. I

688
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 3: think if this was anything other than a running back,

689
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 3: I would say, yeah, I'll just go out and show

690
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 3: out and do whatever I have to do. But I

691
00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 3: do believe that with a running back it's a little

692
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 3: bit different and a full year of getting Like let's

693
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 3: see this past year he had two hundred and thirty

694
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 3: eight rushing attempts and was targeted eighty five times in

695
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 3: the passing game. You bump that up to like two

696
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 3: fifty and one hundred, Like, I don't know how good

697
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 3: he's gonna look in year five, six and seven.

698
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: Sure.

699
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, But I.

700
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 5: Also think that players don't look at it that way.

701
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 5: They never look at it like, oh, I need to

702
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 5: save these hits. They they're all give me the ball.

703
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take care of it.

704
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: I don't think.

705
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,439
Speaker 5: I don't think any of them really think I need

706
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 5: to save myself.

707
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: Okay. I think the beauty of the NFL as eight.

708
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 1: Chan goes into that season saying, hey, if I'm great,

709
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 1: if quinn Ewers turns out to be great, your boy

710
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 1: quinn Ewers, you never know, is he? I mean, you

711
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,400
Speaker 1: seriously brought the merch I know. I mean you just

712
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: in the NFL. You have no idea. And that's the

713
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: beauty of the NFL, where you know, you take Tua

714
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 1: and he's the guy that everyone wanted to tank for,

715
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 1: and he's and he has one big year, you sign

716
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: him to the contract, and now he's off backing up

717
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: some other quarterback in some other city and in comes

718
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: quinn Ewers, and all of a sudden, yours is better

719
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: than Tua. And so you just don't. My point is

720
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: you don't know. And the unknown, I think, is why

721
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: the NFL is so great.

722
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 3: When you say the beauty of the NFL, you mean

723
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,880
Speaker 3: that there is some unknown like you're saying and like

724
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 3: the parody, like you can go from nothing to something

725
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 3: from one year to the next.

726
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,839
Speaker 1: I think a Chan thinks that the Dolphins can go

727
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 1: from nothing to.

728
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 3: Something any given year. He needs to not check his Google,

729
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 3: not history, like, not check the history of the Dolphins

730
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 3: or anything, because I mean, we talked about this on

731
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 3: the pod today. There is an entire generation from two

732
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 3: thousand and one until now, an entire generation of people,

733
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 3: Dolphins fans who maybe we're alive or born that year,

734
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 3: who have not seen this team win.

735
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 1: A playoff game.

736
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 3: So what you call the beauty of the NFL, the

737
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 3: Miami Dolphins have yet to experience. We have no idea

738
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 3: as from the fan base side, what that's like for

739
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 3: over the past twenty five years to be able to

740
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 3: turn a franchise around quickly, because the closest we've gotten

741
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 3: is a wild card playoff Berth.

742
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 1: I understand you had the Pennington year right one one.

743
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 1: That's the last time this has happened, right. I mean,

744
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: I could speak from a Jets fan perspective and tell

745
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: you I've had two of those years, unexpected years where

746
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 1: I did not think that Mark Sanchez of all people

747
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: was going to lead my team to back to back

748
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,959
Speaker 1: AFC championship games. And Mark Sanchez, of all people, led

749
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 1: my team to back to back AFC championship Gibs.

750
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 3: Nobody remembers division titles. They remember playoff wins and the dotins.

751
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 1: When you're a Jet fan, you remember making it to

752
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: the AFC Championship GIP
