Speaker 1: I'm one of these kno gonna would never get sick ever,
Speaker 1: Like I've never missed a day of radio in eighteen years.
Speaker 1: I don't believe because I'm sick. I don't think so.
Speaker 1: I've had days where I should have called in sick, like, man,
Speaker 1: my voice was bad, but I've never called in sick ever.
Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, but I know what it
Speaker 1: feels like to be sick, like I have been sick
Speaker 1: in my life. And I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I feel terrible, terrible chills, night, sweat, whatever, We'll go
Speaker 1: a little bit better Saturday. By Saturday afternoon, I was
Speaker 1: pretty much fine. Neckache, headache, and then Sunday I was good.
Speaker 1: I mean, I was back to my idiotself. So now
Speaker 1: you had the maderner, right, so you have shot one.
Speaker 1: Did you have any of that? I had a bit
Speaker 1: of h I had a bit of sore nous, like
Speaker 1: like you do sometimes when you when you get a
Speaker 1: shot ye via a flu shot or whatever. But it
Speaker 1: was it was pretty It was pretty easy for me.
Speaker 1: I was pretty happy. Now I know that a lot
Speaker 1: of people have said that, uh you know, it's the
Speaker 1: second one you have to watch out for, so okay,
Speaker 1: but you know, I'm looking forward to getting the second one. UM.
Speaker 1: I had a bit of a I had a bit
Speaker 1: of a kind of an epiphany when after my after
Speaker 1: my first shot, UM, and it had to do with
Speaker 1: you know, getting you know, look, we're all getting back
Speaker 1: to normal now, we're getting that that we're doing well.
Speaker 1: The shots are coming and and and it's great. And
Speaker 1: I started thinking about, Okay, you know eventually, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we'll be going back into work and doing from the
Speaker 1: studio again, right. I mean, now, I don't know if
Speaker 1: we're going to go back in a kind of hybrid
Speaker 1: situation like how kids are going back to school right now,
Speaker 1: where they're going back for a couple of days a
Speaker 1: week and then they turn off and then you know,
Speaker 1: they go back for a couple of days after. But
Speaker 1: I started thinking, oh, yeah, man, it's gonna be fun
Speaker 1: going out and seeing everybody again at some time soon
Speaker 1: after I get the second shot, and I drove to
Speaker 1: where I was getting the shot because I signed up
Speaker 1: and they said, yes, your shot, you can get it today.
Speaker 1: And you have to drive it's like a half hour away.
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, great, So I get on the freeway, right,
Speaker 1: I get on the four oh five, and it takes
Speaker 1: me so long to get to the doctor's office. By
Speaker 1: the time I had gotten in the car and then
Speaker 1: I got to the doctor's office, I said, I am
Speaker 1: never driving to work again. I'm gonna do the show
Speaker 1: from my office for the rest of my life. I
Speaker 1: am not gonna fight this traffic. I can't because the
Speaker 1: first I've been on the four oh five in a while,
Speaker 1: like been on the freeway in a while, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I am not doing this. I'm not spending an hour
Speaker 1: and a half driving to work every day like I
Speaker 1: used to it. Oh my goodness, And I went I
Speaker 1: went from completely like, oh, we get to see everybody going.
Speaker 1: I can text with people, I can call people on
Speaker 1: the phone and FaceTime with them if I want to.
Speaker 1: I don't want to have to fight an hour and
Speaker 1: a half worth of traffic every night driving back into work.
Speaker 1: So I went in one drive, I went from hey,
Speaker 1: I'll be going to be great too, I'm gonna stay home.
Speaker 1: It was so much better when there were less people
Speaker 1: actually working right, it's you know, it's a reminder of
Speaker 1: you and I both spent a lot of time in
Speaker 1: New York City, you know, right, it reminds me of
Speaker 1: like New York City. I never get my like the
Speaker 1: last snowstorm when I was working in New York this
Speaker 1: is you know what, four and a half years ago whatever,
Speaker 1: and my previous employers like, hey, we want you to
Speaker 1: stay in the city in case you can't get in
Speaker 1: from Connecticut. Because I was living in southern Connecticut at
Speaker 1: the time. I was like, all right, so big snowstorm
Speaker 1: wasn't as big as they thought. Whatever, it was a
Speaker 1: big snowstorm anyway. I remember walking the streets that night
Speaker 1: and I was like, man, New York is amazing. When
Speaker 1: there's nobody here, It's like I forgot how beautiful this
Speaker 1: city was. I know what screws it up? Right? And
Speaker 1: it's the same thing with la where you know you
Speaker 1: get to where like, man, lad be awesome. Can we
Speaker 1: get have the people to move away? That'd be cool?
Speaker 1: But you want like to be like the blip in
Speaker 1: the Avengers, right, do you want to have the people
Speaker 1: to go away? Wow? Look at you. You know we're
Speaker 1: gonna have that blip, but I want, can Black Panther
Speaker 1: make it do another? Like we're all big on Black
Speaker 1: Panther in my household, Like what it's one of our favorites.
Speaker 1: Um So I do think some of the people they eliminated,
Speaker 1: you know, spoiler alert, they may come back in the
Speaker 1: next Avengers, which I think we've all seen by now. Anyway, No,
Speaker 1: I don't want maybe to that extreme, but like every
Speaker 1: time I get a text from something like I'm done,
Speaker 1: I'm moving, I'm like, man, we're gonna miss you. And
Speaker 1: then I'm like, I do it like a little fist
Speaker 1: pump like I've seen though inevitably one leaves and to
Speaker 1: come and to enter, you know, Like that's what it's
Speaker 1: like in Percy Jackson. Touch that monster that you cut
Speaker 1: off its head and like three more heads come up
Speaker 1: on it. Yes, I forgot what monster. My daughter is
Speaker 1: huge on Percy Jackson. Do you do you think do
Speaker 1: you think Jason Smith and Doug Gottley been for Dan Dants?
Speaker 1: Do you you think that this weekend I don't know
Speaker 1: the ratings for a Decamtsiama, who you know? Like, look
Speaker 1: an emotionless guy winning the Masters in kind of stellar fashion, right,
Speaker 1: do you think that the ratings will be well, I
Speaker 1: mean we both think they'll be down. Right from Tiger
Speaker 1: last time that he was at the Masters, I don't
Speaker 1: know what they'll be in regardless to October's Masters, probably
Speaker 1: not great either. But do you think they'll be down
Speaker 1: because people are like, it's spring, I got the vacks
Speaker 1: or the thing is over and I'm out and about
Speaker 1: and staying inside to watch a golf tournament, while normally
Speaker 1: super appealing because it's the Masters, has no appeal to me. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 1: first thing I want to say is my daughter just
Speaker 1: snucking to tell me Hydra was the name of the
Speaker 1: of the of the god where the you cut off
Speaker 1: the head because she wants, Dad, I want to tell you,
Speaker 1: and I just like write it down. She writes Hydra.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, great, so now it's Hydra is the
Speaker 1: name of that. But no, but here, I think we're
Speaker 1: gonna look at the ratings are gonna look like this.
Speaker 1: The early rounds are up because it's Thursday and Friday
Speaker 1: and we're getting live sporting events and we're watching the
Speaker 1: Masters out there and people are still home and figuring
Speaker 1: out you know, likes a hybrid ways of working. But
Speaker 1: the issue with the Masters is that, yes, we're getting
Speaker 1: to a point now where we're outside and we're doing
Speaker 1: more things, so sports is going to take a back seat.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we already see across the board ratings are down
Speaker 1: a bit because people are picking and choosing, you know,
Speaker 1: what they want to watch and when they want to
Speaker 1: tune in. But if even if this was a you know,
Speaker 1: a weekend just like this, if the big names at
Speaker 1: the top of the leaderboard, there's much more interest and
Speaker 1: much more people are watching in the ratings, would be
Speaker 1: would be good because you when you look at the
Speaker 1: top of the leaderboard, it's not just the Tiger Woods thing,
Speaker 1: because yes, would it be. If Tiger was in contention,
Speaker 1: then we're not having this conversation. But Tiger Woods isn't playing.
Speaker 1: But we also didn't get the other big names, the
Speaker 1: guys we were starting to like now at the top. Look,
Speaker 1: it was a great story that Jordan Spieth was suddenly, hey,
Speaker 1: he's competing the Masters really and where we could see
Speaker 1: him win a major for the first time since we
Speaker 1: thought he was going to be the next Tiger Woods
Speaker 1: four years ago. But the the other names that we
Speaker 1: like that we see at the top that are that
Speaker 1: are guys would kind of like the Dustin Johnson's Brooks
Speaker 1: Cup because these guys weren't up there. So when when
Speaker 1: when when you see and go, okay, the names I
Speaker 1: don't know, the guys I like aren't up there, it
Speaker 1: doesn't become something that get has to get you to
Speaker 1: the television and you can sit and be one of
Speaker 1: those observers who says, I'll check my phone and if
Speaker 1: I need to get to the TV, I'll go watch.
Speaker 1: Like was there probably a push at the very end
Speaker 1: when Matsyama was up big, but he was giving strokes
Speaker 1: away in the last couple of holes. Yeah, I'm sure
Speaker 1: people to oh, are we going to see a playoff
Speaker 1: as something else going to happen? But if we had
Speaker 1: those names in contention, those guys were there, then then
Speaker 1: it would be a pretty good rated Masters regardless of
Speaker 1: the fact that whether we're out and doing things and
Speaker 1: out playing golf or coaching you sports like you and
Speaker 1: I are doing, or something else. Yeah, I just, um,
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like I think it's an interesting time,
Speaker 1: like the whole you can't go You're right about the
Speaker 1: big name leaderboard, right, and it's it's weird because there
Speaker 1: are still there's there's not a Phil, there's not a Tiger.
Speaker 1: I I feel like those days it's gonna be really
Speaker 1: you mentioned it two hours ago, and you were right,
Speaker 1: like we we take for granted how dominant Tiger was
Speaker 1: now special that was although Speet had that one year
Speaker 1: right where he was he was so filthy you could
Speaker 1: almost count on him as like as a constant. So
Speaker 1: I do think there's the speech, the McElroy, the DJ's
Speaker 1: or the world like there's but they don't have the
Speaker 1: same residence as Phil and as as Tiger Um. But
Speaker 1: I would love to know. And like you know, if
Speaker 1: you open up phone lines, you say on Twitter, like
Speaker 1: he's Jason's at how about a fresh com at Gottlieb Show?
Speaker 1: Like what was what was the main reason you didn't
Speaker 1: watch the Masters or didn't watch the Masters as much
Speaker 1: as previous years. Was it that we just had one?
Speaker 1: Was it that like Dudeed Spring, I've been inside, you know,
Speaker 1: we've been quarantine and now we're like out and about
Speaker 1: and I just it was on and I didn't pay
Speaker 1: attention to it or you know, or was it that like, look,
Speaker 1: I didn't I'm not into any of those guys. And
Speaker 1: I didn't have I didn't call bet rivers and putting money,
Speaker 1: you know, I didn't got bet rivers dot Com putting
Speaker 1: money on it. I will say that I had no idea, like,
Speaker 1: no idea how big gambling on golf was, Like I have,
Speaker 1: I have degenerate friends that bet on everything. And I
Speaker 1: just thought like, oh well, they're like such degenerates they
Speaker 1: bet on golf, right, and then like literally all my
Speaker 1: buddies like you gotsult hours? You do you have? Do
Speaker 1: you have that guy? Because you know Romo picked him? Well,
Speaker 1: you know, what about what about speed? You know spe
Speaker 1: speac one last weekend? What about Shoffly? What about John Ram?
Speaker 1: You know Justin Rose had that had that incredible start
Speaker 1: where you shot a sixty five on the first day.
Speaker 1: You're like, man, I wish I had Justin Rose and
Speaker 1: my my, you know, my daily golf. I had no
Speaker 1: idea how much golf was gambled upon. Oh dude, let
Speaker 1: me let me tell you this. And I am giving
Speaker 1: you I'm your straight talk with this. You know, I
Speaker 1: I've done fantasy football my entire life, right, fantasy f
Speaker 1: I mean I discovered it in the early twenties was awesome.
Speaker 1: I hosted a fantasy football show, yes, in nineteen twenties. Yes,
Speaker 1: it was single wing offense, so you might my twenties.
Speaker 1: In the twenties, I was like in the twenties, Yes,
Speaker 1: I dragged me a history lesson like final say, football
Speaker 1: was discovered in the nineteen twenties. By one year, I
Speaker 1: want I had red range. Yeah, yeah, I had to
Speaker 1: get the quarterback that threw three passes. Rockney invented it,
Speaker 1: invented it. No, Dame Jack. I had a high scoring
Speaker 1: game in fantasy football. What was the score? Seven to four?
Speaker 1: It was amazing. But you know I've I've done fantasy
Speaker 1: football my whole life, right, and I hosted a show
Speaker 1: on NFL networked for a few years for that. But
Speaker 1: there is no more fantasy sport that is more fun
Speaker 1: to do than fantasy golf. There is. I trust me
Speaker 1: on this, trust me, trust me. It is so much
Speaker 1: fun to do fantasy golf and pick different golfers for
Speaker 1: each event. The trash talking that you see in fantasy
Speaker 1: football is like the junior varsity compared to what you
Speaker 1: see in in golf. If someone signs their scorecard incorrect,
Speaker 1: or someone you know, blows it with with with a
Speaker 1: with a bad you know, seventeenth hole or something like that.
Speaker 1: It is. I can't get over how much fun it
Speaker 1: was to start doing fantasy golf and doing it and
Speaker 1: you find yourself like like a situation like this where
Speaker 1: it's like if you had you know, Matziama, or if
Speaker 1: you know you had John Rom or something. He's like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, he's like four shots off whatever we're
Speaker 1: doing on Sunday, Cancel it? What do you mean? Cancel it?
Speaker 1: I gotta watch TV from I gotta watch mat from
Speaker 1: nine thirty until four thirty because I gotta see if
Speaker 1: John Rom wins. I mean, it's it takes over that
Speaker 1: kind of way true, doing fantasy golf like that. I
Speaker 1: get it because it's so much fun and it just
Speaker 1: takes over your life unlike anything else. I'd be really
Speaker 1: cancel everything for today. I got it because I got
Speaker 1: John Rom in the what what are you talking? Well,
Speaker 1: it's double points because we're doing you know, it's it's
Speaker 1: a major. So it's we're double point points in fantasy.
Speaker 1: And your family looks at you're like, what the hell
Speaker 1: are you talking about? So here's here's the here's the
Speaker 1: big question. This is a big legit and you can
Speaker 1: feel free to to tweet us the answer this. By
Speaker 1: the way, Mansiyama, you know Bogey Bogey par bogey last
Speaker 1: four holes. I do think that takes a little bit
Speaker 1: of you know, like he came in limping down the stretch,
Speaker 1: like wow, you know, survive that one. Um. But I
Speaker 1: I here's here's the big question. When you have legit
Speaker 1: money on something, do you watch? Oh? Yeah, yeah, because
Speaker 1: because because there's there's two points to it, and I
Speaker 1: think it's actually the same point, but I'll make it
Speaker 1: out of two points. The two points are the good
Speaker 1: thing about watching is you're just way more engaged than
Speaker 1: you're just. The bad thing about it is you're just
Speaker 1: way more engaged. Like it ruins your day. It like
Speaker 1: you lose, and you like, I got this, I got this,
Speaker 1: And then of course whatever works for you you're gonna
Speaker 1: do the next time because you're superstitious, and you're like,
Speaker 1: I'm not superstitious. I'm just doing the same thing that
Speaker 1: I did last time I won because that helped me win, Right,
Speaker 1: That's what people do. So I guess you know the
Speaker 1: question is do you like if you had say you
Speaker 1: had a bunch of money on speeth, you know, to
Speaker 1: win the thing yesterday. Like I got a bunch of
Speaker 1: money on speeed. I put it down as soon as
Speaker 1: he won last weekend, and I'm gonna write I put
Speaker 1: it down before you one last weekend. I just know
Speaker 1: he's figuring things out. Whatever, Like could you bring yourself
Speaker 1: to watch? You just like looking at your phone or
Speaker 1: I'm not paying attention looking at your phone. I'm not
Speaker 1: paying attention. So in fantasy golf, you'll stop everything and
Speaker 1: watch just because of fantasy golf. Oh yeah, yeah, because
Speaker 1: if I don't watch, it doesn't I'm not doing anybody
Speaker 1: any good because I'm just completely what what what'd you say?
Speaker 1: What'd you say? Yeah? No, I'm sorry, I'm checking stuff
Speaker 1: on my phone. I would rather be the person that
Speaker 1: is watching and can take a few minutes away and say, hey,
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Right? We got this, we got this,
Speaker 1: and then get back to watching, than be the person, well,
Speaker 1: I'm not watching the event, and then you know, you
Speaker 1: have your kids or your wife say to you, but
Speaker 1: you're not here, You're not present. Okay, you don't care.
Speaker 1: Just go in the other room and just watch it, Okay,
Speaker 1: so I'd rather be the first guy than that guy.
Speaker 1: The guy say listen, I'll walk, but hey, I got
Speaker 1: time for a couple of minutes in a commercial break
Speaker 1: or something when we can talk about something and figure
Speaker 1: something important out. We can solve a problem in two
Speaker 1: and a half minutes. I'm all right with that. I'd
Speaker 1: rather be that guy than the other way, where at
Speaker 1: least I'm I'm true to myself in that first way.
Speaker 1: I think that's a big question with with the other
Speaker 1: sex that I don't understand, like they want you to
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I gotta be present, Like I'd rather
Speaker 1: just kind of be it out to be around like
Speaker 1: just you guys gotta do your thing and every once
Speaker 1: in a while hop in on stuff. I don't like
Speaker 1: to being sent off into a room to watch my
Speaker 1: sporting event. You get yellow carding your wife yellow cards.
Speaker 1: You just holds up yellow card, go off. I gotta
Speaker 1: go on the room and g am. I gonna go
Speaker 1: in the room like that's that's my TV is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you don't have a TV. You got three kids, man,
Speaker 1: I got one kid. I don't have a TV. What
Speaker 1: what what are we watching? We're going We're gonna watch okay,
Speaker 1: all right, great, you know, I mean you don't have it.
Speaker 1: There's no way you have a TV. I got whatever
Speaker 1: TV I can get. Hey, I got the TV in
Speaker 1: this room for this. All right, fine, all right, I'll
Speaker 1: deal with that. It's okay. I can't believe you have
Speaker 1: a TV. Yeah, yeah, I mean I I And also,
Speaker 1: like I'll tell you, one good thing in the trends
Speaker 1: for guys with their big TV right is that kids
Speaker 1: don't watch traditional TV anymore. Say like, well, I want
Speaker 1: to come watch I want to watch Netflix. I want
Speaker 1: to believe like one, there's a there's more than one
Speaker 1: TV in the house. And two like doing to your device, like, man,
Speaker 1: that's the big that's that's the key. Don't hook up
Speaker 1: their devices to your TV right like you want like
Speaker 1: your Netflix, you're Amazon, your whatever. That's cool, okay, but
Speaker 1: the like the video games, you can afford a second TV,
Speaker 1: put it on a second TV because otherwise you're never
Speaker 1: you're literally never gonna watch your TV again. But I'm
Speaker 1: kids don't throw on the traditional TV nearly as much
Speaker 1: or at all anymore. No, And they're they're on they're
Speaker 1: onto the streaming, they're onto their devices, and it's it's
Speaker 1: really weird that it's it's like I don't I don't
Speaker 1: consider like my daughter a big TV fan, but she
Speaker 1: but things she likes is like I like it, like
Speaker 1: she's not. Somebody's gonna put the TV on just to
Speaker 1: put it on, right, Like you and I. That's what
Speaker 1: we always did right first day when you came home.
Speaker 1: When when when when we were younger, growing up whatever,
Speaker 1: I was living by ourselves, we're gonna do to turn
Speaker 1: the TV on, right. I'm not gonna be at home
Speaker 1: and not have the television on. I'm gonna have the
Speaker 1: TV on for something just because you know, something may
Speaker 1: show up on my TV or I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: like my friend, uh, you know, we'll have de But
Speaker 1: kids now they just don't turn it on. It's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I want to watch something, to turn it on, and
Speaker 1: then I'm gonna turn it off and then I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go on my scream do something else. But there's no
Speaker 1: just having the television on just to have it on.
Speaker 1: Where your mom would say at the end of the
Speaker 1: day to you, the TV has been on all day,
Speaker 1: give it a rest, turn it off the TV, Like
Speaker 1: the TV's just gonna burn out. And you're not gonna
Speaker 1: be able to watch television anymore. It's not like that anymore. Yeah, No,
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's you know, hey, it's it's interesting.
Speaker 1: I was talking to my son yesterday and I was like,
Speaker 1: I can't find the clicker. He's like, what's the clicker?
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to the remote control. He's like, why
Speaker 1: would you call it a clicker? I was like, you know,
Speaker 1: it's funny. I almost for a second, I was like,
Speaker 1: why do we call it a clicker? Are you old
Speaker 1: enough to remember when you had a remote control and
Speaker 1: it would actually click the dial? Like that was why
Speaker 1: I was called the clicker? Yeah, And I like, I remember,
Speaker 1: I'm old enough to remember when we had the VCR
Speaker 1: and you couldn't program it and you would have to
Speaker 1: like somebody record. My dad would like, somebody record the
Speaker 1: game at noon. He was a New York Giants fan, Like,
Speaker 1: look the Giants come on at ten, somebody make sure
Speaker 1: you I gotta go and I gotta play rack a ball.
Speaker 1: You go and make sure you record the game. And
Speaker 1: you had to like go and press record down on
Speaker 1: the VCR and kind of let it. It would just
Speaker 1: kind of run and you just let it run. Nobody
Speaker 1: was allowed to touch or watch that TV during that time.
Speaker 1: You also weren't allowed to speak to him or tell
Speaker 1: him anything that happened in the game. And if somebody
Speaker 1: just happened to be like hey, hey, Babby gottlieb how
Speaker 1: about them giants day, like, oh, you're ruining my gang.
Speaker 1: You're ruining my dike. Bro. We don't know. You're not
Speaker 1: watching the game. We don't know. We don't know. So
Speaker 1: like the Master's yesterday, Like I can watch it on
Speaker 1: my phone, Like I had it on my phone and
Speaker 1: I'm coaching basketball, and I told you, my parents are
Speaker 1: watching it, you know, in a Mercedes Benz Sprinter van
Speaker 1: out in the parking lot in between games and kind
Speaker 1: of giving me updates and I'm coming, you know, and
Speaker 1: they're like, well, why do you come out of here
Speaker 1: and tap a drink with us? Like, because I'm coaching
Speaker 1: your kid, why don't you come in here and coach
Speaker 1: your kid and I'll have a drink with you guys.
Speaker 1: You know, anyway, is that Doug Gottlie drinking a modella
Speaker 1: on the sideline? What is he doing? You know what?
Speaker 1: It probably probably would have been a better version of
Speaker 1: myself if I had a Modella on the sideline, That's
Speaker 1: not a bad idea Twitter, right, how about a Fresca

Speaker 1: called Rebound. Rick, congrats on the new book man. That's awesome,
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. It's doing extremely well. I'm glad
Speaker 1: people are enjoying it and love that we're getting Bryan's
Speaker 1: story out there, not just about his the backstory of
Speaker 1: his career, but his battle with Parkinson since he retired. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's an amazing, amazing player. And it's it's one of
Speaker 1: those things where and I don't I think we've evolved
Speaker 1: on it some, but we have a tendency to think
Speaker 1: that a disease like Parkinson's only strikes like the feeble,
Speaker 1: right like the Montgomery Burns Is of the world, or
Speaker 1: old people like my grandpa had Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's right
Speaker 1: like here. It is as healthy and physically gifted a
Speaker 1: human being as any on the face of the earth,
Speaker 1: and it can bring him to his knees. It can
Speaker 1: strike anybody. Yeah, no, it's And I've just been struck
Speaker 1: by the number of people, um since they learned of
Speaker 1: me doing the book and the book coming out. I mean,
Speaker 1: I I just every everyone that I know in one
Speaker 1: way or another has been touched by this disease, either
Speaker 1: someone in their family, I mean my my father in law.
Speaker 1: Um it um. It is far more prevalent than you
Speaker 1: than you realize. And but in the case of Brian
Speaker 1: and certainly others, um yeah, the the young onset and
Speaker 1: taking away um a phenomenal athlete. Uh. You know the
Speaker 1: two things that it that it attacks obviously is your
Speaker 1: physical abilities. Uh and but it also uh creates depression
Speaker 1: and so uh it takes away your personality and your gregariousness.
Speaker 1: And those are two huge parts, are two huge parts
Speaker 1: of who Brian is and his identity. And he's had
Speaker 1: to learn how to uh still survive and throw with
Speaker 1: a disease that wants to take away the two biggest
Speaker 1: parts of it. Rick given away copies of his book
Speaker 1: enter for a chance to win at good Reads. So, Rick,
Speaker 1: when you autographed the copy, will you autograph the copy
Speaker 1: and also have insight? Will you say hey, you know,
Speaker 1: hey Jason, thanks for buying the book. By the way,
Speaker 1: the Knicks look great for a playoff spot like will
Speaker 1: you will you do personalized inscriptions or I uh for
Speaker 1: for you. Yes, we'll have to negotiate exactly what that
Speaker 1: inscription says. I got something else in mind for you,
Speaker 1: but um uh yeah, no, happy to personalize it for
Speaker 1: you for you. Jason, Yes, Doug. Every time when I
Speaker 1: Rick on my show at night, he's always there's gonna
Speaker 1: be some kind of crazy asked Nicks question. I'm just
Speaker 1: ready for. It would be some kind of and I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna be ready for because it's gonna happen. So
Speaker 1: so uh dog he does this. They have this commercial
Speaker 1: about being careful crossing train with train crossing. Yeah, to
Speaker 1: be careful. I feel like that is a public service announcement,
Speaker 1: especially for me. Right before I come on the show.
Speaker 1: Watch out, there's going to be a fast moving vehicle
Speaker 1: and you could get blindsided by it. Yeah. Look, I
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do the Knicks. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: do the Jets, and I'm not going to do Syracuse.
Speaker 1: So right those are those are Jason's three three pitches.
Speaker 1: He throws them all very very well. He locates him
Speaker 1: quite quite well right time in the count. Um, I
Speaker 1: do want to talk about like the Lakers. Um, so look,
Speaker 1: we we both heard, we both know people in that
Speaker 1: organization kind of weird. I know they go and beat
Speaker 1: the Nets with their backups Kyrie and gets thrown out
Speaker 1: Soda Soda shrewder. It looks like they're all going to
Speaker 1: be back healthy and play before the end of the season.
Speaker 1: But what are they really gonna be like? Like, what
Speaker 1: what does this team like when it's whole? You know,
Speaker 1: what's fascinating to me is that we we have the
Speaker 1: Nets and the Lakers since me, they both have uh,
Speaker 1: they are opposites, but they have the same issue, which
Speaker 1: is that they are there. They were particularly gifted on
Speaker 1: one side of the ball, but they are um a
Speaker 1: little bit of nimic on the other. For the For
Speaker 1: the Nets, obviously it's an amazing offense, amazing offensive players,
Speaker 1: but defensively, if we're talking about a team that's championship caliber, uh,
Speaker 1: they're not good enough defensively historically where it tells us
Speaker 1: they're not good enough defensively, and historically the Lakers are
Speaker 1: not good enough offensively and that's where um as we
Speaker 1: see Andre Drummond play um and kind of the weirdness.
Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of people made a big deal
Speaker 1: about how he dominated the Nets. In some ways he did,
Speaker 1: but there were there were a lot of plays where
Speaker 1: I go, that's not going to fly in a playoff series,
Speaker 1: Like you can't get away with that turnover or that
Speaker 1: move or trying to put the ball on the floor
Speaker 1: from from that place if you're if you're that big man,
Speaker 1: and so you know, I think I get the general
Speaker 1: impression that people are just anticipating a Lakers nets Final
Speaker 1: and unless something happens for them on their respective weak
Speaker 1: side of the ball, I don't see them getting there.
Speaker 1: And again I'm just going based on history, you have
Speaker 1: to be more of a balanced team between offense and
Speaker 1: defense to win a championship than either of those teams
Speaker 1: have demonstrated to this point. No, Rick, when it comes
Speaker 1: to the Lakers, well, how do you slot them in
Speaker 1: the Western Conference? Now? Are they still the team when
Speaker 1: they're healthy I can expect it? Or is this where hey, really,
Speaker 1: you know, when you get into the playoffs, there's two
Speaker 1: or three teams that they're probably going to have real
Speaker 1: difficulty dating. Yeah, I look, I believe that even with
Speaker 1: Andre Drummond, they're still going to have an issue with size.
Speaker 1: And obviously we see a couple of teams out there,
Speaker 1: and there's no accident that Denver loaded up on side.
Speaker 1: There's no accident that that Utah didn't make any moves
Speaker 1: and believes that they can win with what they have.
Speaker 1: There's no accident that the Clippers added a DeMarcus Cousins. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, the teams have recognized that if we're going
Speaker 1: to beat the Lakers, this is this is one of
Speaker 1: the elements that we that we have to have. And
Speaker 1: one are the things that made the Lakers so potent
Speaker 1: last year is that they could play both big and small. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know that they were. They were very versatile. I
Speaker 1: don't feel they're as versatile this year. Now. If you're
Speaker 1: asking me which between the what the Lakers have and
Speaker 1: the Nets have, I'm still gonna go with the team
Speaker 1: that is uh, that is defensively oriented. I just believe
Speaker 1: in the postseason that's going to get you, that's going
Speaker 1: to get you further. Um. I think we saw a
Speaker 1: little bit of that with the Nets in this game.
Speaker 1: And it's hard to take anything away from it. It's
Speaker 1: a regular season game. Both teams were missing a lot
Speaker 1: of players, but the game's going to generally get slower
Speaker 1: and more physical, and you're going to be allowed to
Speaker 1: play that way. And that's my biggest question with the
Speaker 1: Nets is, uh, you know, can can they handle it
Speaker 1: when the pace slows and the game gets more physical
Speaker 1: and with the with the Lakers, my only hesitation is like,
Speaker 1: I'm I can't. One. I pointed to that one team
Speaker 1: last year that I thought was going to be able
Speaker 1: to take them down, and that was the Clippers, and uh,
Speaker 1: and obviously got singed by by taking that. You know,
Speaker 1: do I look at that one team and say they're
Speaker 1: the team that can knock them off? I believe the
Speaker 1: Clippers are a better team. I believe that they are
Speaker 1: motivated from last year. So push came to shove, I
Speaker 1: would say, uh, yeah, I think this is a different
Speaker 1: Clippers team now. May I may get burned again by
Speaker 1: by saying that, But when I look at the way
Speaker 1: they're playing for particularly now, I think more than anything,
Speaker 1: even compared to last year, they are taking a pride
Speaker 1: in how they play defense. Kawhi Leonard in particular is
Speaker 1: taking pride in getting back to being the defensive player
Speaker 1: that we think he can be. And I love the
Speaker 1: way the ball is moving and I only think that
Speaker 1: Rajon Rondo is going to help help that when the
Speaker 1: ball gets stuck with Kauai, and Kauai thinks I'm the
Speaker 1: offensive engine with this team. They are not at their best,
Speaker 1: but they've been playing a different way and that's why.
Speaker 1: You know, whether it's Denver, it's Utah. Here's the other thing.
Speaker 1: The Lakers are not going to be coming from a
Speaker 1: position of strength. There's a very good chance that they're
Speaker 1: going to have to work their way up through the
Speaker 1: play in games, and that's going to take just a
Speaker 1: little bit more out of them than we saw last year.
Speaker 1: So obviously I still think they're the team to beat,
Speaker 1: but I think they are more beatable this year than
Speaker 1: they were last year. No, no, listen, And here's what's
Speaker 1: interesting about it. You know, everybody wants to point to
Speaker 1: the Clippers collapse yet last year, and I do think
Speaker 1: that quarantine the bubble had a bunch to do with it.
Speaker 1: I don't think they were a perfect team, but was
Speaker 1: also the first year of that team together. Does anybody
Speaker 1: do we not remember what the Lakers look like at
Speaker 1: the end of Lebron's first year? Let me refresh your memory. Okay,
Speaker 1: Magic Johnson quit before the last game of the season,
Speaker 1: But that wasn't even the worst part of the year.
Speaker 1: The worst part was that Lebron quit on the team
Speaker 1: well before that, right, remember he was out, he was
Speaker 1: hurt after they won on Christmas Day, and then he
Speaker 1: came in with a glass of wine, which everyone thought
Speaker 1: was a horrible look and horrible idea except lebron sycophants.
Speaker 1: And then he wanted the whole team traded so he
Speaker 1: could get Anthony Davis, so they all quit on him,
Speaker 1: and then there's the awful visual. Like my point is that, yes,
Speaker 1: it looked bad at the end of the year for
Speaker 1: the Clippers to not even get a chance to play
Speaker 1: the Lakers, but that's what sometimes these first year super teams,
Speaker 1: it's really hard to get everybody on the same page.
Speaker 1: Especially it's not just the way the Clippers went about it.
Speaker 1: It's true anywhere. Lebron didn't win his first year in Miami,
Speaker 1: his first year back in Cleveland, his first year in
Speaker 1: LA stands reason that the Clippers and the Clippers made
Speaker 1: some adjustments. I love the Rondo trade, even though I'm
Speaker 1: not a huge Rondo guy. Everybody with the Lakers last
Speaker 1: year was like, that's a really good move. He's exactly
Speaker 1: what they need, and that's not what we need. Them
Speaker 1: having so I'm with you on it. Let me get
Speaker 1: to the confounding team of all confounding teams. Last night
Speaker 1: was amazing for the Celtics. They go on a thirty
Speaker 1: one to three run against the Nuggets. Do we have
Speaker 1: any idea who what the Celtics are. No. Look, I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't think they're last night's team. I don't think
Speaker 1: this means that they're suddenly a title contender. I believe
Speaker 1: that there is a certain degree of pride there and
Speaker 1: it's probably more a reflection of the Nuggets and they're
Speaker 1: Achilles Heel in terms of know Yoki's just uh sometimes
Speaker 1: their matchups that when he doesn't have it going, they
Speaker 1: completely come apart. And his numbers were still really good.
Speaker 1: But there's still an element with the Nuggets, with the
Speaker 1: Michael Porter junior balance um. And I feel like there's
Speaker 1: two personalities there, and I know what personality almost the
Speaker 1: personnel and the personality and Mike Malone's personality I don't.
Speaker 1: I like Tom Thibodeaux and Mike Malone. I think are
Speaker 1: of the same ilk and they want the same type
Speaker 1: of player. And Mike Malone wants the grinders, he wants
Speaker 1: the Jimmy Butler types, and you got you got some
Speaker 1: key players on the Denver Nuggets teams that are not
Speaker 1: Michael Michael Porter Junior is not a grinder and you
Speaker 1: know what, and Yogi has become one more so than
Speaker 1: than before. But even he is kind of a finesse
Speaker 1: big and so I feel like that dynamic is the
Speaker 1: tricky park here when it comes to the Nuggets and
Speaker 1: what they're what they're capable of and where they go.
Speaker 1: And I look, I mean, it's been a bad year.
Speaker 1: It's been a disappointing year for the Celtics, and every
Speaker 1: once in a while they're going to rear their head
Speaker 1: and say enough is enough. Um. But I just don't
Speaker 1: think it's sustainable because they're best players are not are
Speaker 1: not leaders, and they don't have enough physicality. Um. So
Speaker 1: you know, every now and then a team's going to
Speaker 1: get fed up with what they've done. But it's not sustainable.
Speaker 1: And that's what I see with the Celtics. He's on
Speaker 1: Twitter at Rick Buker, That is at Rick Buker, Fox
Speaker 1: Sports One analyst and insider. His new book Rebound with
Speaker 1: Brian Grant, available right now. Check them out on Twitter
Speaker 1: for a chance to win a one of ten autograph
Speaker 1: copies of the book as well. Rick as always buddy,
Speaker 1: great stuff, man, we'll talk to you soon, my pleasure. Guys.
Speaker 1: All right, so are you on board, Doug with the Clippers? Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: this is they The first year we overrated them. The
Speaker 1: first year we're underrating them. Now we didn't know we
Speaker 1: didn't overrate them. The first year we didn't. They were
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't I don't know how you rated them.
Speaker 1: I thought they were really good. I don't think the
Speaker 1: bubble gave us a true Okay, there's a bunch of
Speaker 1: things like, look, the Lakers weren't in a good place
Speaker 1: in the bubble. They weren't. And then the protest happened
Speaker 1: because of the awful what awful happened in Kenosha, Wisconsin,
Speaker 1: And they got two games off because of it, and
Speaker 1: it kind of recharged them. They get through their series
Speaker 1: and now they get Houston, who they match up well with.
Speaker 1: Houston couldn't beat them because they could only play small.
Speaker 1: And meanwhile, the Clippers lose their series, and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, the Lakers are like, dude, we can win
Speaker 1: this thing. Let's let's go. And they and their their
Speaker 1: families arrived right after as well, which kind of recharged them,
Speaker 1: where the Clippers just kind of fell apart and they
Speaker 1: didn't have a point guard, they didn't have rim protection.
Speaker 1: So you know, where's like, here's an example, Like you're
Speaker 1: bringing Andre Drummond. That's awesome. Okay, what happens to the the
Speaker 1: Montres Harald's numbers and minutes? Now? Now that you have
Speaker 1: Andre Drummond, you get Anthony Davis back, you got Lebron James,
Speaker 1: you know, you got like, how did does he play
Speaker 1: as well with fewer opportunities that he's gonna have because
Speaker 1: you got more mouse defeat. Everybody thinks more is more
Speaker 1: and sometimes less is in fact more. So I don't
Speaker 1: know where you're right. The Clippers last year, I think
Speaker 1: they're legit title contender. I think it's reasonable to say
Speaker 1: the Lakers is still the favorite because they got Lebron
Speaker 1: and because how many and they did it and defense
Speaker 1: does in fact win championships. But I think the Clippers
Speaker 1: are the one B to me to the one A,
Speaker 1: which is the Lakers. Twitter at how about a Frescat

Speaker 1: from twelve to three, twelve to three Pacific time, three
Speaker 1: to six Eastern time. Foxible Radio i R Radio have
Speaker 1: many of these stations, including our serious XM station. I'm
Speaker 1: on the same station as Dan. Yes, check the local
Speaker 1: listings for the station and time in your area. This
Speaker 1: will be I'm sure this might be your lead story.
Speaker 1: It certainly will be the lead NFL story. A report
Speaker 1: by The Athletic on the behind the scenes workings of
Speaker 1: the Eagles shows a toxic culture built on an uneven
Speaker 1: power structure. Right now, what does this mean? It means this.
Speaker 1: The Athletics, citing sources close to the organization, talked about
Speaker 1: the downfall of the Eagles in the recent years, and
Speaker 1: one of the main reasons was that Doug Peterson, who
Speaker 1: was fired after last season, was micro managed every step
Speaker 1: of the way. Quote. Peterson was ridiculed and criticized for
Speaker 1: every decision. If you won by three, it wasn't enough.
Speaker 1: If you lost on a last second field goal, You're
Speaker 1: the worst coach in history. He was reportedly forced to
Speaker 1: sit down with team owner Jeffrey Lourie and GM Howie
Speaker 1: Roseman every Tuesday, in which his decision making was regularly
Speaker 1: questioned and criticized. Sources say they treated him like a baby. So,
Speaker 1: so now you know why the Eagles didn't win and
Speaker 1: couldn't keep things going after their Super Bowl triumph. Doug,
Speaker 1: It's about allow of this comes down to the It's
Speaker 1: like the old Yankees thing with the used to the
Speaker 1: analytics department and apparently like the head of their analytics
Speaker 1: Deparmer is a young guy who went to Harvard with
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Lorie's son, and and that's really kind of what
Speaker 1: it comes down to, you know, Like when they drafted
Speaker 1: J J R. Sega Whiteside in twenty nineteen, Jeffrey Lourie
Speaker 1: put his thumb on the scale when the team was
Speaker 1: prepared to take another selection like Paris Campbell, right, Like
Speaker 1: this is this is one of those deals where in
Speaker 1: the NFL it's been described to be owner's own Like
Speaker 1: what's that mean? Like, look, at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: if the owner wants to make a decision, wants to
Speaker 1: do something different or trust somebody else, Um, you know
Speaker 1: like that. That's that's the deal. Now. I will tell
Speaker 1: you NFL people will like, look the analytics. The use
Speaker 1: of analytics is very useful. It's not the end all
Speaker 1: be all, and it does paint the picture of an
Speaker 1: impossible situation for Doug Peterson because for whatever reason, there
Speaker 1: was disagreements between he and the analytics guy or analytics department.
Speaker 1: And then you know Howie Roseman's a guy who he
Speaker 1: lost power when when they brought in um Chip Kelly,
Speaker 1: he got back power, and then he became kind of
Speaker 1: power hungry and found a way to surround himself with
Speaker 1: people who were his guys. And then you got Jeffrey Lori,
Speaker 1: who he wants to make football decisions. The whole thing
Speaker 1: seems like a complete mess now. And the big thing
Speaker 1: that stands out to me is that every Tuesday he
Speaker 1: had to sit down and have your decision making question
Speaker 1: and criticize when you do something creative for a living.
Speaker 1: Let's say this is something this is not This is
Speaker 1: not something with numbers or something where you know where, hey,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this. This is what our company does.
Speaker 1: We manufacture widgets, and so this is how we make
Speaker 1: a widget. And it goes on when you do something
Speaker 1: creative like this, I don't know how you can sit
Speaker 1: down in somebody's office on a regular basis, even after
Speaker 1: your team wins, and have everything you do criticize, right
Speaker 1: like there, there's no way I know, I couldn't do it.
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any way you could do it.
Speaker 1: If if here at Fox or wherever we were, if
Speaker 1: every couple of days we had to sit down with
Speaker 1: our bosses, they say, okay, well, here's what didn't work
Speaker 1: on your show on Monday. I didn't like when you
Speaker 1: did this topic. I didn't like when you did that.
Speaker 1: And you could say, yeah, but I did that topic.
Speaker 1: It did really well virally, like we had a lot
Speaker 1: of downloads and and and subscriptions. Yeah, but I didn't
Speaker 1: like that topic so much. I would burn out on that,
Speaker 1: like after a month, and it would get to the
Speaker 1: point where I'd second guess myself every everything I was doing,
Speaker 1: especially with something that was successful, right like like Peterson.
Speaker 1: One of the parts of the article is that he
Speaker 1: was criticized for not throwing the football more in a
Speaker 1: game against Buffalo where there were twenty five mile an
Speaker 1: hour wins, which, oh, by the way, was a game
Speaker 1: the Eagles won, So it's like, really, you're gonna get
Speaker 1: on me we won the game, when really that's all
Speaker 1: that matters is winning the game, and you're gonna get
Speaker 1: on me for that, for not doing it the right way.
Speaker 1: I don't know how he stayed. I couldn't stay and
Speaker 1: do it. I don't know how he stayed to do
Speaker 1: it well. I mean like, look, I there's a lot
Speaker 1: to it, and it will be off discussed, I do think.
Speaker 1: And there's a portion of it which talks about the
Speaker 1: draft picks, and that's really what undid what's undid them, Right,
Speaker 1: they took Jalengor last year at twenty one, at twenty two,
Speaker 1: justin Jefferson, one guy sets the record for you know,
Speaker 1: wide receiver yards and receptions. The other guys Jalen Raggor. Right,
Speaker 1: they drafted Jalen Hurtz, who I guess is gonna be
Speaker 1: their starting quarterback. But it was a wasted pick on
Speaker 1: a team that needed guys, and they're play any of
Speaker 1: dudes available in the second round. You know, you go
Speaker 1: back the year before and they took J j R.
Speaker 1: Sega Whiteside, you know, and he can't run. He's just
Speaker 1: a big dude who should be playing tight end, not
Speaker 1: playing wide receiver. He does, He's just not fluid in
Speaker 1: the hips. They missed. They missed on far too many,
Speaker 1: far too many draft picks. You know, instead of fixing
Speaker 1: their offensive line, fixing their wide receiver corps, they picked
Speaker 1: the wrong guys. And by picking the wrong guys, you
Speaker 1: end up putting yourself in a situation where somebody's got
Speaker 1: to take the blame, and I don't know who. This
Speaker 1: article says that scouts are mystified over their draft picks
Speaker 1: last year. Many many I know were as well, it looks.
Speaker 1: But the bigger point is the one you made. In playing,
Speaker 1: you can't play with one eye on the bench, and
Speaker 1: in coaching you can't have one eye on the owner's box.
Speaker 1: You have to be allowed to do your deal. And
Speaker 1: they didn't let Doug Peterson do his deal. But by
Speaker 1: this story's account, Twitter right, how about a fresca Doug
Speaker 1: at Gottlief Show. More on this story coming up next
Speaker 1: with Colin Coward Doug's Guided as well. After that, Jason
Speaker 1: and Doug in for Dan and the Dan Nette. You're
Speaker 1: listening to Fox Sports Radio
