23
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: get the bite the bite from the office and just

24
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: put it on your board. You just keep going to

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: YouTube and playing the version that goes into the next clip,

26
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: which is a Seinfeld.

27
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 4: No, you just how dare you?

28
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: Because I'll tell you I've seen that episode of the

29
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: Office when Michael says that it doesn't go to the

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: Seinfeld No, that does.

31
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 5: I think it does to the original one. I think

32
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 5: you've got an edited one.

33
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: Smith. You want more, Jan says. Jan says Michael. I'm

34
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not gonna tell him that. I'm not.

35
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 1: I'm not.

36
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna tell them Jason punk another one.

37
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: But I just did, okay, Oh, if you're right, Yeah,

38
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, did you feel the pouch that time?

39
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 2: No?

40
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: Underwears on? Right? I do? I do the instead of

41
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: the cup check, where you would have to you know,

42
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: in literally the umpire would go buy and go cup

43
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: check and you'd have to knock on your cup to

44
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 1: show and he'd have to know. That's how we would

45
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: check it out. No, it's not. I think that's actually

46
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: a really good way, because you know, you don't want

47
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: to say, hey, here's your cup. You can't, you know,

48
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: you want to and.

49
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 4: Your cup just air cup cup.

50
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 1: So they were just they you knock it like that's

51
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: what I'm doing. I'm just not okay, yep, up, got

52
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: the got the pouch underwear is on the right ways,

53
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: a little bit on the right way.

54
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 5: But you know what's funny is they the fourteen of

55
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 5: sixteen losses. It really takes on a whole different gravity

56
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 5: and weight. When Steve de Sager says it.

57
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 4: Your cup's just a big old yeah.

58
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. When de Sager says, and the Mets they have

59
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: lost fourteen of sixteen, my goodness. Still they lead the

60
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: Wild Card by a half game over the Reds, who

61
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: blew an eight one lead tonight against the Red thirteenth

62
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: in a row, right there, But that is the lead?

63
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 4: What what what's the leading to do a car to playoffs?

64
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 4: Because you're not going there.

65
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: Fourteen out of sixteen lead. The lead, I will say,

66
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,679
Speaker 1: is just watching Manny Machado try to make a play

67
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: at third base. That was incredibly embarrassing. Uh, the Dodgers

68
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: trying to bunt a runner over to third base in

69
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: the in the first inning. In the bottom of the

70
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: third inning, rather, Rojas pops it up and Machado comes

71
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: in and dives for the ball. And it's not like

72
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: he's got a really fully extend and dive, but he

73
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: dives and the ball hits off the heel of his glove,

74
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: it goes all the way to the dugout instead of

75
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: a sacrifice bunt. The Dodgers load the bases, they get

76
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: two runs in and on Otani ground out, So now

77
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: it is a two to one Dodger lead over the Padres.

78
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: As the Padres back in the top of the fourth inning. Boy,

79
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: I mean really, you say, oh, yeah, he dove that,

80
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: but that really should have been a play that Manny

81
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: Machado should have made. Like I know he does for it,

82
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: but he should have made that play. That was the

83
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: tryhard play.

84
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll show you I don't I dog it out here.

85
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: Look at this.

86
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, how about one?

87
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 5: You don't get it done?

88
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: Johnny Hustle, Johnny Hussel. Hussele tried and then Johnny Hustle,

89
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: I didn't try it all, and I was with the Dodgers.

90
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: Now what No, See, that's why I don't hustle, because look,

91
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: look at what happened. I could I should have just

92
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 1: caught it on a bounce and thrown at the first

93
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 1: base for the out. Right, don't be billy bean, don't

94
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: be a hero. Pick up the ball and throw it

95
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: the first base. Now, I'm not gonna die. I'm not

96
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: gonna try anymore. You see what happens when I try?

97
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: Not gonna do it? Uh So Dodge again. Dodge lead

98
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: the Padres two to one, top of the fourth inning.

99
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: Now look a little bit more on. The biggest story

100
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: of the day in football has been the twenty million

101
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,359
Speaker 1: dollar fine levy to Michigan for their part in the

102
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 1: Connor Stallions sign stealing scandal. Sean Moore, head coach, is

103
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna get two game suspension this year for Games three

104
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: in games four, which is just really weird. They asked

105
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: for those games because yeah, we'd rather not have our

106
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: coach again Central Michigan and Nebraska. That's what you think

107
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: of you, Nebraska. He's also getting this for the opening

108
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: game of twenty twenty six, which right now could be

109
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:08,480
Speaker 1: played in Germany against Western Michigan. So this we're at

110
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: least we're done with the jurisprudence of this. We're gonna

111
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: get two more days for Sharon Moore, two more games

112
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: for him, that one more next year. Now. Twenty million

113
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: dollar fine, right, it seems laughable. It sounds like a

114
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 1: big number, but it really isn't, especially when you think

115
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: of the big numbers that athletics have, that that athletic

116
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: programs have, and money they generate in revenue. But still,

117
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: twenty million dollars sounds like a lot. But in reality,

118
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 1: as soon as this fine hit most most of us

119
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: saw it and said, Michigan, how much money come a

120
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: twenty million dollars? It's got to be one hundred million

121
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: dollars if you really want to hurt Michigan. And that's

122
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: the one hundred percent, you will be one thousand percent

123
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: on that. If you ever see the athletics campus at

124
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 1: the University of Michigan. And I was just there a

125
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 1: month ago, right, I told you last that we toured Michigan,

126
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: so we wanted to see Michigan. And the athletics campus

127
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: is the size just the athletics part, right, I'm not

128
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: I don't mean football. I mean the athletics campus is

129
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: the size of a large university campus. Just that, just

130
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: the just the sports area is you you drive to

131
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: the athletics campus and the first thing you see is

132
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: the Big House and there's a huge sign with the

133
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: National Championship banner up over it. It's like, uh, It's

134
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: like remember when when when George Bush dropped that big

135
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: mission accomplished sign. It was that big in the background.

136
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: You couldn't help but look at it, like, that's what

137
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: this is, Like this big national championship sign on the

138
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 1: front of the big House. And then you drive around

139
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: and you see there's they have something for every sport.

140
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: They have a big field hockey stadium. I not not

141
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: where Hey, this is the stadium where it's field hockey

142
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: and it's tennis, and it's cross country and like the

143
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: all Purpose stadium where they do all the sports. No,

144
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: it's a it's a big thirteen thousand seat field hockey

145
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: stadium that went through renovation a few years ago. They

146
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: only play field hockey here. It's a big stick that

147
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: most other schools would say, we could play football here.

148
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: Right Like, ever, we're going to visit cal Davis, you know,

149
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: a few months ago, going you could cal Davis could

150
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: put their football program here on the field hockey field

151
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: for University of Michigan. You realize just then. I remember

152
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: walking away going, you know, and we we talked about it.

153
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: I said, man, whatever, however much money you think Michigan

154
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: makes for their school or for their athletics, you got

155
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: to times that by fifty because to have this this

156
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: it was the most impressive athletics area of a school that.

157
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 4: I've ever got outside of Georgetown.

158
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: My entire life. No, I'm never going there. It's always

159
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: not allowed to go within three blocks of Georgetown.

160
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:45,239
Speaker 4: She's getting a free ride.

161
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 1: Well, that's the only way she could go because I'm

162
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: not writing a check from here for Georgetown. There's certain

163
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: things that are not That's just silly.

164
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 5: But why do I stunt her growth?

165
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: Because she can get if she if she gets us,

166
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: she gets a scholarship, she can go Georgetown. That's fine.

167
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not school. No, it's not. It's a

168
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: horrible school. It's the worst school in the world. No,

169
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: you should see. I have a list of people that

170
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: have gone there that couldn't stand going there.

171
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 4: It's better than Syracuse.

172
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: Really, no, No, Syracuse is not. Come on, come on,

173
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: you go to Syracuse. You're in on the ground floor

174
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: the next great football program in the Northeast. I mean,

175
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: we haven't gone to the NCAA Tournament in basketball in

176
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: five years, but still yeah, we got it going on

177
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: now in Footworld lacrosse dynasty, you can go and stay

178
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 1: inside for seven months in a row, I mean on once. Yeah, oh,

179
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: chess team is great, man, We're great chess team. Yeah yeah,

180
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: good know we win. Chess team wins. Whether we're black

181
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,439
Speaker 1: or white doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what's solid, dude,

182
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: that's the board, black or white, black or white. That

183
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: we went on both sides of rhetors. You took it

184
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: down to a weird space. We went. It doesn't matter.

185
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: You make us whever. But I really I've not the athletics.

186
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: I mean, look, Michigan's is a great campus. I see

187
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: at Stanford's campus was amazing. There's lots of amazing campuses.

188
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: But the sports, but specifically the sports, the athletics area,

189
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 1: baseball stadium, at basketball it was it's so unbelievably impressive.

190
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: And it's like it's like it's like almost like a city,

191
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: Like I've not seen anything to compare to that in

192
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: my entire life. I I said, we walked away going, man, Michigan.

193
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 4: Just print money.

194
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 1: It was just really funny.

195
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 5: Operating budget, according to all records, was nearly two hundred

196
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 5: million dollars a year ago, and that seems good. I've

197
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 5: seen a couple of other estimates that are a little

198
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 5: bit higher. So trying to figure out where that sweet

199
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 5: spot is. But let's just say it's two hundred million,

200
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 5: you're gonna lose ten percent. That doesn't include the money

201
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 5: that's flowing in. Uh right, because you're looking at the

202
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 5: next year and whatever is is flowing, you've got some

203
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 5: of the reductions like that. It's just a curiosity, uh

204
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 5: to me. You come to these decisions, and you have

205
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 5: a preponderance of evidence, right, the more stuff of hey,

206
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 5: here's all these deleted text messages, but you have no

207
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 5: ability to compel them because saying, hey I had to

208
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 5: delete them for storage. No, no, no, they're deleted off your phone.

209
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, right, they're not gone. We we we all

210
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 1: know this. They they exist.

211
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 5: The other dude throwing his in the water, same thing. Yes,

212
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 5: you may not be able to recover from that physical device, however,

213
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 5: uh so, Yeah, it's it's just kind of a clown show.

214
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: Here's a fine you bring that up because that that

215
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: that's that's something that I really am surprised about, right,

216
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 1: Like part of this the situation was the the NCAA,

217
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: they find Michigan the money and they suspense your on more.

218
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 1: They couldn't get enough evidence obviously to prove the case. Meanwhile,

219
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: we all saw the evidence, we all know what happened,

220
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: but they didn't have enough. And Connor Stallion says, yeah,

221
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: I threw my phone in the lake. That's where everything was.

222
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: They have anything backed up on a hard drive anything,

223
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: It was just on my phone.

224
00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 4: Next to Tom Brady's phone.

225
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: Yeah right, they tell I learned from Tom. Hey, Tom,

226
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: did it worked out for him? Like? I wonder if

227
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: it was just like in the movies where they actually

228
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: have the flip phone and they break it in half

229
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: and throw it away. But like, really, I mean I

230
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: see in the movies all the time. It doesn't matter.

231
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: They're still label to get a dump off the phone, right, yeah,

232
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: like they do that, you don't need. I mean, what

233
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: else do d Like I say, Hey, let's get a

234
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 1: let's run a trace on that phone. Le's get a

235
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: dump on everything on the Yeah, we have it right here.

236
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:21,839
Speaker 4: Look, here's all the.

237
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 1: Pictures, here's all the next messages. We got it all.

238
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: How do we not have that?

239
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 5: But that's the thing. You have subpoena power in these

240
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 5: crime dramas you're watching. The NCAA doesn't have that. So

241
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 5: if you're a quote cooperating person.

242
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: But they don't in the TV shows either, they find

243
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: a way around. If the cop asks somebody to do

244
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 1: them a favor, they say, okay, that's great, and they

245
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 1: do them a favor and it worked out. I see

246
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: it happens all the time.

247
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,520
Speaker 5: But that's if you don't want to go through the

248
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 5: proper channels and you're trying to expedite things. Otherwise, there's paperwork. Man,

249
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 5: it gets bogged down unless it's priority A one.

250
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, there is not a lot of paperwork in all

251
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: the cop movies. It would be very boring if you

252
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: if you slow it down with paper, right.

253
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 5: There's always the only time the reports get referenced is

254
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 5: when everybody's going out for the celibratory end of episode

255
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 5: beer and the one guy says, I got to stay

256
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 5: behind and catch up on my fives.

257
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I drew the short straw. Hey

258
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: have a beer for me. Guys, All right, that's great,

259
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: but I mean, really, I mean he threw he threw

260
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: his phone in the lake. There's no other way. Everything

261
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: else was taking There was no other way to get it,

262
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: no other way to get any kind of evidence, like

263
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: like this was such a a fly by night investigation.

264
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 1: Into something that. Look, they were calling each other the KGB,

265
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: and there were so many people that were involved, and

266
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: you're telling me that Connor Stallion's a guy who was

267
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 1: playing at being you know, the rogue KGB operator taking

268
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: over Michigan. This guy out smarted the NCAAA, all the lawyers,

269
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: everything else. Because I threw my phone away. Really like that,

270
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: I feel, I just feel the nca is even more

271
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: neptev for thinking about that that this guy, this Connor

272
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: Stallion's right, who was wearing a wig and I'm and

273
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: getting video and and this this whole thing that didn't

274
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: really have anything official with the with the Michigan Athletic

275
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 1: department the football team, but it was there and it

276
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: was involved so many people. They all found a way

277
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 1: to outsmart the NCAAA. Like really like wow, I really

278
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: like the NSA must have the worst investigators in the

279
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: world if that's the case, or they really didn't care.

280
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 5: They half asked it all the way through. Just give

281
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 5: it some time, give it some lip service, and we'll

282
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 5: move on, you know, for more. He gets a couple

283
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 5: couple more games. Everybody shrugs, because you'll have celebrity play

284
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 5: callers in those first and second halves auction. Look, they

285
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 5: might auction those off and they can raise the twenty

286
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 5: million to thirty million dollars to come back that way.

287
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: No bowl band, no nothing.

288
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 5: So you know, everybody else around the Big ten's looking going, Wow,

335
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: I can't believe it because it's just ridiculous. But maybe

336
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: you saw this today, but literally, you know, we're getting

337
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: ready Little League World Series and it's in the swing

338
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: right now. We just had the Softball World Series. Now

339
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: the girls had theirs, now the boys have theirs. And

340
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 1: Little League put out a statement today denouncing betting on

341
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 1: the Little League World Series. Now, it's not illegal to

342
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: bet on the Little League World Series. Not many places

343
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: offer it, but you can get it online or overseas.

344
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of places who still offer it. And

345
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: it turns out it is very popular. Right, It's a

346
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: popular thing to about a Little League World Series. And

347
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: before you say, oh my goodness, you're betting on twelve

348
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: year olds, it's not. You gotta understand because looking at

349
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: this from a perspective of a coach, a youth coaching

350
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: coach softball for a long time, is I understand how

351
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: appealing it is because, quite honestly, if you have a

352
00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: team with a great pitcher, like I know, who's gonna

353
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 1: win that game, right, It doesn't matter what the rest

354
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 1: of the team looks like it does. If you have

355
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: a really good hitting team and you have you know,

356
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: your pitcher is okay, okay. But if you face a

357
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 1: team and there's somebody out there with someone that throws

358
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: seventy five or eighty miles an hour, has a devastating curveball,

359
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 1: guess what. That team is gonna win the majority of

360
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: their games. They're gonna likely win a championship. And gamblers

361
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: don't look at situations like this as saying, hey, it

362
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: would be fun. I think this is how it's gonna go,

363
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: and I'd like to bet this team. Gambles want to say, hey,

364
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: what's a sure thing? Right, Well, it's sure thing that

365
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: this team from from Nebraska, or this team from Iowa,

366
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: or this team from New York, whoever it is, Hey,

367
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: they have a great pitcher, they have the next Money

368
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: Davis or whoever it is they have somebody. Yeah, they're

369
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: gonna win all their games. Yeah, let's load up on there,

370
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 1: because they're playing a team that I can tell is

371
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 1: not very good. The way they got in, I could

372
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: see where they're at and how good a team they are.

373
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: This team is loaded and this is gonna be an

374
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: easy maker for me. Like that's how gamblers look at

375
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: stuff like this. So, I mean, really, it's awful to

376
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 1: bet on twelve year olds and it's a terrible thing

377
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: to do. It's awful, and I can't believe that people actually,

378
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: you know, there's some books that still allow it. But

379
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: looking at it from the gambler's perspective, Yeah, to say

380
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: it's to the shock being, I can't believe it's a

381
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: popular No, I understand exactly why it's popular.

382
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 5: No, it's like anything, if there's an angle to be had,

383
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 5: a dollar to be made, people are gonna look at it, right,

384
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 5: no matter how quote pure and the sanctity of the

385
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:34,959
Speaker 5: game be dammed. Now, no US based sportsbook offer it,

386
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 5: so that that's not we haven't crossed that bridge yet.

387
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 5: But I was looking at a quote from a guy

388
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 5: off and bet online ag that they're in Panama. Any quote,

389
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 5: the Little League World Series, exciting tournament. Our customers love

390
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 5: to watch. We get requests from them every year to

391
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 5: offer odds. Okay, cool, They've offered odds each of the

392
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 5: last four years. He added this, We'll take more bet

393
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,120
Speaker 5: on these Little League games that we will on any

394
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 5: professional tennis or soccer match over the next two weeks.

395
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, look, and this is Bavada and bet Online.

396
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: These are pretty big, you know, online and offshore companies

397
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: that do this. I mean you think about obviously it's

398
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 1: never gonna be as much as football or base by anything.

399
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: But but if you're looking for a way, I think

400
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: we could make money on this because I because this

401
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: picture is that good. Yeah, okay, I'm gonna completely do that.

402
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 5: But yeah, again, wherever there's a dollar to be made,

403
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,880
Speaker 5: people are gonna go to try to find it, they're

404
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 5: gonna try to exploit it, and they're gonna try to

405
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 5: move it on. I mean, we've been talking about a

406
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 5: lot of would be scandals. We talked with Todd Furman

407
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 5: last night. You can find the podcast up wherever you

408
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 5: get your audio. But a couple of the pointed questions,

409
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 5: you're right as part of the discussion when we had

410
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 5: Michael Porter Junior talking about, Hey, you could hook guys

411
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 5: up with some you know, by suddenly pulling up lame

412
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 5: in a game and hitting your under and things like that.

413
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 5: I mean, there's there's plenty of ways that it works out.

414
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 1: Now.

415
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 5: I thought it was funny as you set up the story, though, Jason,

416
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,679
Speaker 5: I be remiss if I didn't mention you brought up

417
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 5: Money Davis, who threw out a first pitch the other day.

418
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 5: That's good recalled by you. And then you brought and

419
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 5: tried to salvage some of your relationship with the state

420
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 5: of Nebraska you openly mocked as we talked about the

421
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 5: Michigan story a little bit earlier. So that is that

422
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 5: is really a way to bring it back? That was

423
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 5: that is that is really a sure we gave you

424
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:24,679
Speaker 5: some love there you know the.

425
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,719
Speaker 1: Other thing and I will and I will tell you this, right,

426
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 1: if you're thinking about gambling, first of all, don't do it.

427
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: But secondly, I want I want to say this because

428
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: maybe this will get people to stop doing it. As

429
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: someone who coached softball at a pretty high level, right,

430
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: I told you the little league that we played at,

431
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: they just went to the Little League World Series this year.

432
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: They lost in the I think they lost in the

433
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: third game. They won the Western Championship. It was awesome.

434
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 1: I coached in the tournament. You know, we lost in

435
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: the End of States the last couple of years there,

436
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: which was one which was if we got to the

437
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: next level, it was one level away from from playing

438
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 1: in the Little League World Series. Is I want to

439
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: say this is there a again? There are very few

440
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: absolute rules that I can tell you from the beginning

441
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 1: of when I started coaching until the end of when

442
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: I started coaching, when when I stopped coaching in softball

443
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: and in soccer as well. And one of the biggest

444
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: things I will tell you is that no matter how

445
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: good a player is, no matter what you think is

446
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: gonna happen, you never know how a twelve year old

00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: as the parents, Hey big game tomorrow, We're ready. But

Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm tired. I'm tired. Really, I really want

Speaker 1: old is going to wake up, and you don't know

463
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: how they're gonna deal with the pressure. You don't know

464
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: how they're gonna deal with playing on television anything else.

465
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 1: Like I've seen it. I've seen I see it in

466
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: every tournament. I see great players who go through and

467
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: I see them in the in the in the regionals,

468
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 1: and they're terrific, and they get the Little League World

469
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: Series and all of a sudden, whoa, whoa, this is

470
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: a really big deal. I see teams in the semi

471
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: finals that look like they're world beaters. But then here's

472
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: the final with a chance to go to the Little

473
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: League World Series on the line, and all of a sudden,

474
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: why is your pitcher hitting seven people? In the first

475
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: four innings. Why is this picture's given up one run?

476
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,360
Speaker 1: The entire run of regionals and States and now sud

477
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: they hit seven people in the first five innings of

478
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 1: a game. This is what you never know how a

479
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: kid is going to wake up on any given day.

480
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: Trust me when I tell you that one of the

481
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,120
Speaker 1: few blanket truths for the beginning of when I coach

482
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: all the way to the end, that I subscribe to

483
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 1: you from the start to the finish.

484
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 5: But Jason, I mean, that's something we talk about in

485
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 5: professional sports all the time, right, How was a guy responding?

486
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 5: What's going on? What's circling in the background? Guy's not

487
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,719
Speaker 5: hitting well? I mean, certainly we're based in Los Angeles.

488
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 5: It's been a lot of the speculation of what's gone

489
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 5: on with Mookie Betts all year now. He's been hitting

490
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 5: well the last couple of weeks. But before that, right,

491
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 5: you had the illness before Japan funk moving him around

492
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 5: the lineup, moving them in the field and trying to

493
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 5: figure out, you know, what's hitting well. Then they travel

494
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 5: to Boston and you find out, you know, there's ill

495
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 5: family members. How much of that is weighing on his

496
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 5: mind at the plate and in the field and all

497
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 5: of those things, right, and we just go down the

498
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 5: list plenty of those. I remember Frank Thomas suddenly couldn't

499
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 5: hit the broadside of a bar, and a guy who

500
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 5: was a masher forever you found out he was going

501
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 5: through some personal strife. It's like, okay, it kind of

502
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 5: makes sense now, right, And eventually that all comes out.

503
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 5: But in the interim, yeah, you're going day to day

504
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 5: and you know, maybe they've got a test and now

505
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 5: they're in the middle of summer. I haven't gone back

506
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 5: to school yet in terms of the Little League Old series,

507
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 5: but you know, there's a lot of things and a

508
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 5: lot of pressures that are flowing.

509
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: Now.

510
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 5: I love the statement, though. Let me just give you

511
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 5: this Little League's the trusted place where children are learning

512
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 5: the fundamentals of the game and important life lessons that

513
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 5: come with having fun, celebrating teamwork, and playing with integrity.

514
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 5: And no one should be exploiting the success and failures

515
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 5: of children playing the game they love for their own

516
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 5: personal gain. Now you know my general sense, I look

517
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 5: a lot of greatness in sports and sports endeavors. Altruism

518
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,679
Speaker 5: is a dangerous word that we can add on to

519
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 5: all this stuff because everybody associated with the league is

520
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 5: trying to win or trying to establish themselves in one

521
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 5: way or another. So yes, there's some personal gain that

522
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 5: you're getting out of all of this in the process.

523
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 5: So don't try to just hey, because you're making an

524
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 5: extra dollar over there, you're the scum of the earth, Like,

525
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 5: what are you doing?

526
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: Well?

527
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 5: I think if we win, Regional can get over to

528
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 5: this team and coach them.

529
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,800

Speaker 1: tonight obvious well have more in Kansas City Seattle again,

618
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: Seattle beating Kansas City twenty three to seven, this game

619
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 1: at halftime. Right now, there's lots of teams with things

620
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: at stake. There's players with things at stake. There's quarterback

621
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: and quarterback derbys, but it's really something that maybe the

622
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 1: guy with the most at stake is a quarterback who

623
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: is unquestionably the number one quarterback on his team. But

624
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: yet this is the life of the Chicago Bears. Yeah,

625
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: Williams is expected to play a little bit this weekend.

626
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 1: Right now, it's not known how much. They haven't really

627
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: said how much. Ben Johnson's not sure, but it's likely

628
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: going to be at least a couple of series on

629
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 1: Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. This is a game that's

630
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 1: on national TV. It's on Fox. It's a big deal.

631
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: So I would assume not that you have to do

632
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 1: that for television. But hey, he hasn't played yet, he

633
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 1: didn't play last week. I assume he's going to get

634
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 1: a couple of series. Maybe he gets the first quarter.

635
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: This is such a big game for him because you

636
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 1: want to tamp down the Caleb sucks and the panic

637
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: that Chicago and Bear's Nation is going to hit if

638
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: somehow Williams is not good in this preseason game. He

639
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: didn't play last week and it didn't matter. It's almost

640
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: like the Bear said, we found our guy, Tyson Bage

641
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: it's our guy. Look how good he is. Oh my god,

642
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: come on, but this is how nervous everybody is, how

643
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 1: much they're ready to jump off the Caleb Williams bandwagon.

644
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. They're they're off it now,

645
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: but they're they're kind of on the edge of the

646
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: diving board with one foot on, one foot off, going Okay,

647
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: give me, give me a reason, and I'm gonna jump.

648
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: Just give me a reason. I'm gonna jump. And if

649
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: he has a bad game, if he if he goes

650
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: one for seven and he throws a pick or is

651
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 1: like two for nine and and and just you know,

652
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: doesn't look good, overshoots a couple receivers. It is absolute

653
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: panic city in Chicago. Not that things are gonna change,

654
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: because obviously Caleb Williams is Again for everybody who hates

655
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams, sorry, he's gonna be the guy. He's gonna start,

656
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: He's gonna get the majority of the season. It's why

657
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson is there. He's a number one overall pick

658
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: in the draft. He's got tons of talent. I'm telling

659
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: you he's gonna be fine. But they want to tap

660
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: down this. Hey, we want to have normal rest of

661
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: the preseason here, right, we don't want to hear about

662
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: how he had trouble throwing the ball into a basket,

663
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 1: you know, or throwing the ball into a net and

664
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 1: all of a sudden he sucks. But that's kind of

665
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 1: where it is for Caleb Williams, right, that's the big

666
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: narrative of him over the course of throughout the country

667
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: for the preseason. They need him to have a big

668
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: kid because they want to put this over. They want

669
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: to put this whole thing to bed and say, okay, great, see,

670
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: Caleb's fine, the offense is fine, Let's go forward. Now,

671
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: everything is okay. Everybody can calm a blank down for

672
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 1: what they see in practice when he throws a couple

673
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: of incomplete passes, everybody could just chill out because look,

674
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 1: when the game was on, when the lights were on,

675
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 1: he was terrific. Nothing to see here. They want to

676
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 1: put this story to bed so bad. They need they

677
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 1: need crazy. They need Caleb Williams to have a lights

678
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: out game two in the preseason. It sounds crazy to

679
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: say it, but that's the reality in Chicago.

680
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 5: Well, it's funny. For the first time I've ever really

681
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 5: agreed with Ryan Poles on a public statement where he

682
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 5: kind of took his shots at what media has done,

683
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 5: particularly you know with the couple of clips that got out, particularly.

684
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: That net miss the disaster.

685
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 5: You know, what are the objectives of a drill and

686
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 5: you know, getting the ball out fast, whatever else. But

687
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 5: where they didn't help things is now they're talking about, well,

688
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 5: we still have a competition because we don't know who's

689
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 5: gonna protect him at left tackle, Like that's that's not good.

690
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 5: You don't have a guy that's the leader in the

691
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 5: clubhouse to protect his blindside.

692
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: That's a problem.

693
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 5: But but all of that to say, yeah, there's been

694
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 5: so much noise about it. Ben Johnson, we talked about

695
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 5: it last week. You know, bringing up Tyson bagent and

696
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 5: showing him some love and being effusive with praise gets

697
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 5: people all anxious right to want to right write the

698
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 5: best they can there And and Caleb's saying the goal

699
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 5: is seventy percent and four thousand yards, great lofty goals,

700
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 5: all the things that you want your quarterback to have,

701
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 5: that bravado, But when it's not matching quickly as much

702
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 5: of a learning curve as it is from the clown

703
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 5: show they had a year ago, then yeah, you got

704
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 5: to put something on tape that's gonna lay fears. Oh,

705
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 5: by the way, you're also playing Buffalo, which means, guess what,

706
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 5: Mitch Trubisky's back in town. Say what you will about Mitch.

707
00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 5: A couple of playoff appearances, a couple of player appearances,

708
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 5: and a guy who was beloved in the city. You

709
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 5: know his play nationally and whenever people take their pot shots,

710
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 5: but he was a guy that the city love. Bear

711
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 5: stands had their love hate at times, but they loved

712
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 5: the guy. So all of that is swirling as they

713
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 5: did these joint workouts ahead of this game. So yeah,

714
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 5: he's got a lot to overcome this week, does mister Williams.

715
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: It is crazy the pressure on a number one quarterback

716
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: who has the job. But again, welcome to Chicago.

717
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 4: What would you know about pressure?

718
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,280

Speaker 4: Personally, that means Metts Sucking dog.

729
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 1: Dodgers get out of a bit of a jam. Casparis

730
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 1: gets a fly out to center end the top of

731
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: the seventh inning. Dodgers still lead the Padres two to one,

732
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 1: first place on the line in the NL West Love Board.

733
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: This game coming up in a bit. Uh. Meanwhile, as

734
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: we look ahead two week two in the NFL, right

735
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 1: we talk about some teams and quarterbacks that have a

736
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: lot at steak. We talked about Caleb Williams. Guy's got

737
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,359
Speaker 1: the gig in Chicago. He's got the most in state

738
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 1: because he wants to stop the Caleb Sucks narrative. One

739
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 1: quarterback derby that we are gonna see end tomorrow and

740
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: I have a big belief this is gonna end. Is

741
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:59,760
Speaker 1: the Colts Quarterback Derby with Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson

742
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,759
Speaker 1: will and tomorrow night, Daniel Jones gets the start. The

743
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 1: plan was to have Richardson play the first game and

744
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: then Daniel Jones play the second game and start and

745
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: last week Obviously it got cut a little bit short

746
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 1: because Richardson got hurt, didn't see the blind side rusher

747
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 1: and hurt and dislocated his finger, and he was back

748
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 1: at practice. He's going to play Jane, Yeah, and he's

749
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 1: gonna play tomorrow right, It's gonna play me really ridiculously.

750
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 1: We're putting guys out there behind a backup offensive line,

751
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 1: which is stupid. But Daniel Jones can win the job

752
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: if he's good right. Tomorrow night is going to be

753
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: the deciding factor. If Daniel Jones plays first quarter ish good,

754
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: he gets the job. He gets because look, they're looking

755
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 1: for someone to lead the offense, and well, Daniel Jones

756
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: is not quite the downfield player that Anthony Richardson is.

757
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: He's a guy they trust more with the football, they

758
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: trust him in different situations with his experience. Anthony Richardson

759
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: still is prone to making a bad decision. He hasn't

760
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 1: played enough football. Now the flips. If Jones is just okay, right, Jones,

761
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,799
Speaker 1: They'll go with Richardson because clearly, at some point both

762
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: these guys are going to play right. It's like, okay,

763
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: is someone going to be that strong to win the

764
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: job out of the Gate. But if Daniel Jones has

765
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: a real strong performance tomorrow, he's not going to give

766
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,879
Speaker 1: the gig back, and Anthony Richardson will have to wait

767
00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: and see if somehow Jones gets hurt or is ineffective,

768
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: and he will get his chance. Same thing will happen

769
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 1: the other way if Anthony Richardson starts a quarterback and

770
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 1: eventually at some point Daniel Jones are gonna get a chance.

771
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 1: But this derby is going to end tomorrow night, and

772
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: I'll tell you it's going to be Daniel Jones. He'll

773
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: play well enough, and he'll show that you can trust

774
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: me with the offense, because that's really what they want.

775
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 1: They're still kind of scarred from Anthony Richardson, who can

776
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,280
Speaker 1: look awful for three quarters and then play six minutes

777
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 1: of brilliant football but you wind up losing. They don't

778
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: want to get on that ride again. And if Richardson

779
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: showed a complete and total command of the offense that

780
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,720
Speaker 1: he was ready that and it's really just about football

781
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: that he hasn't played, that's all it is. For Anthony

782
00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: richards It's just you know, the guy hasn't played, didn't

783
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: play a lot in college. He's been hurt. If he

784
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 1: had more reps, it would be a different story. But

785
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna see Jones with the command of the offense

786
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: because that's what he's had so far in training camp.

787
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: They love that he's been and felt good in the system.

788
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 1: He's gonna play well. He's gonna win the job tomorrow night, and.

789
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 5: You have the opportunity to get off to it with

790
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 5: the competency and that's what we're banking on, right Jones

791
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,280
Speaker 5: with his own injury history, but looking for that veteran acumen,

792
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 5: with the number of weapons at his disposal.

793
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: Here you got our.

794
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,920
Speaker 5: Season opener against the Dolphins, winnable game at home, second

795
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 5: game of the year. Everybody wants to crown the Broncos.

796
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 5: I like what they are on paper, but it's still

797
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 5: a game that you should be in and maybe able

798
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 5: to steal. It's at home, and then you're on the

799
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 5: road at the Titans. You actually got a chance with

800
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 5: competent play. You don't have to be world beating, but

801
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 5: competent play and efficient football to get yourself off to

802
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 5: a pretty good start. And then Game four is on

803
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 5: the road out in Los Angeles against the Rams, and

804
00:38:56,960 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 5: at this point that's the other big story of Saturday is, hey,

805
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 5: how's that work out for Matthew Stafford get a look,

806
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 5: I'm gonna throw sixty times and crumple down or have

807
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,600
Speaker 5: more back issues. We don't know, but questions of all

808
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 5: of that ahead of a date against the Raiders. I mean,

809
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 5: there's optimism if you're in Indianapolis that if Daniel Jones

810
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,600
Speaker 5: shows he's in control of what you're doing, that he

811
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 5: can take this job and get off the runway pretty

812
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:24,240
Speaker 5: well fast.

813
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, look you know the call to the two teams,

814
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: the two long shot teams I like the most in

815
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: the NFL, like long shot super Bowl odds, Like hey,

816
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 1: who can show up out of nowhere? Colts in the AFC,

817
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: Falcons in the NFC. Right, those are my two teams.

818
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 1: The Colts have great weapons everywhere. Daniel Jones just has

819
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 1: to get enough reps, get ready and be able to

820
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 1: find them and he will. Josh Down said today, both

821
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: guys are playing well. Whoever they pick is great. Daniel

822
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,359
Speaker 1: Jones has that chance tomorrow night, it's the preseason. He'll

823
00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,879
Speaker 1: play well enough, and I feel pretty good that he's

824
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 1: going to be the guy starting on Monday.

825
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 5: That's gonna be a Daniel Jones. Look at that, you're

826
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 5: bullshot Danil Jones.

827
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 1: I know, insane, right, Daniel Job, Daniel Jones who for years, heck,

828
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: I couldn't stop to He's not good, He's terrible. The

829
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,919
Speaker 1: Giants over drafted him. He's been Now like, oh, Daniel

830
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,360
Speaker 1: Jones is winning this job. He's he's gonna win this

831
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 1: job tomorrow. That's how it's gonna go. Teoscar Hernandez home

832
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:19,879
Speaker 1: run is giving the Dodgers a three to one lead

833
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: over the Padres. We'll have more in this game, plus

834
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,640
