Speaker 1: have told me this would be my reality today. If

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: you said this a year ago, I would not have

4
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: believed you. Details on the way we are broadcasting live

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: Afternoon to you, Jeff Schwartz. Great to be with you again.

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: If you would have told me a year ago, Jeff,

11
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 1: that I would be watching WNBA games left and right

12
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: and betting on them. I literally just saw a second

13
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: ago Angel Reesa's seventeen rebounds. We need to be on

14
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: the over on that, Jeff. How did we miss that

15
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: opportunity there?

16
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 2: I mean, her stats are so interesting to me because

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 2: half for our offense, nearly half our offense rebounds. It

18
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 2: is a shocking amount of offensive rebounds of her own.

19
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: Missus a lot of times like it's a great opportunity.

20
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: You know, when you bet like a like a points

21
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 2: to rebounds assist right for those who you can bet

22
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 2: the combination of all those right, like the best play

23
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 2: is like an offensive rebound and a basket that's three.

24
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 2: You get three for that, right, even better, obviously, off

25
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 2: it's a rebound basket foul, you get four. She gets

26
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: three all the time. She gets her own rebound and

27
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: it scores two points. Like she would be the absolute

28
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: best to wager on in those points rebound assists market

29
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 2: because of that reason. However, I'm glad you started with

30
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 2: maybe the game happening right now Phoenix in Indiana, because

31
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: we talked about her a lot. Kaylyn Clark, all right,

32
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: and she's very polarizing for whatever reason. But Dana Tarazzi,

33
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: one of the best of all time, right is on

34
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: the Phoenix Mercury, and she talked a lot about Kaylyn

35
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 2: Clark joining the WNBA, and some of the points I

36
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 2: think are very valid, like, hey, it's gonna take time.

37
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 2: She's a young cat. But it sounds a lot like

38
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 2: a lot of haterade, you know, Brian, a lot of haterrade.

39
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 2: And all Kanan Clark has done kept her mouth shut,

40
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: encouraged other women, encouraged other players in the league, gone

41
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 2: about her job, and I think she's two rebounds away

42
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: from a triple double today. Yeah, and I know they're

43
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 2: gonna lose. Phoenix's kind of taking off right now. Indiana

44
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 2: was winning for part of the second half. But Kanan

45
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: Clark's at twelve, eight and ten right now.

46
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good way.

47
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: To tell the rest of these old cats like I'm here,

48
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 2: I'm here to stay. She's not shooting terribly well, but

49
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: that's you know, she shot better recently, but against these

50
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 2: better teams, she's struggling to find a little bit of

51
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: her shot, which is again, this fair criticism of her

52
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 2: game right now. But I love the quiet sort of

53
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 2: assassin thing. Now, I'm not against talking, I'm not against

54
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: that at all, but I love when a player is

55
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 2: just quiet and then just goes about and dominates.

56
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: Well, it's a good point where they just flashed it

57
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: on the screen, where like you read off this that line.

58
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: Caitlyn has twelve points, she has eight rebounds, ten assists.

59
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 1: No rookie in WNBA history has recorded a triple double,

60
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: so she's two rebounds away from making history. And yeah,

61
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: going back to Diana, and I agreed with her. She

62
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: was like, listen, there are levels to these things. When

63
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: you go from dominating in college to playing against grown

64
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: women who have been playing professional basketball for years and years.

65
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: It's a different level and it might take a little

66
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: bit of time to be a star. I didn't have

67
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: any problem with that whatsoever. But because it's Kitlin Clark,

68
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: sometimes it mushrooms into a bigger deal. But I like

69
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: your point where I agreed with Diana. There are levels

70
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: to this thing. But Caitlyn Clark is already productive. I

71
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: think it's a mixture. She will have her passing ability,

72
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: some assists. She'll make some passes that are chest gorgeous

73
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: and it's like, how did you see that? And then

74
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: there are some passes where it's like, oh my gosh,

75
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: that was awful. So she's a progress she is still

76
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: productive to begin her career.

77
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: Here, she's averaging I think six and a half or

78
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: seven assists, and it could easily be ten if if

79
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 2: her teammates has catched the ball. Like her turnovers. It's

80
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 2: a high turnover number. But if you watch and people

81
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 2: told her to me to do a good job of

82
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 2: just highlighting this, Brian, her teammates cannot catch the ball.

83
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 2: It reminds me of do you remember the famous Stephen A.

84
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 2: Smith rant when when the Lakers traded pal Gasol's gonna

85
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 2: be four pal Gasol and trade away. Kwame Brown, Kwame Brown. Yeah.

86
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: And Steven A. Smith is like he's got he's got

87
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 2: hands for bricks. He cannot catch the ball. He can't

88
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: like he cannot catch His hands are small, they're bricks.

89
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 2: He cannot catch the ball. That's the rant. By the way,

90
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 2: it was like old Stephen A. Smith. It was just

91
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 2: it was brilliant. It's before he became famous, porgan popular

92
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 2: the way he is now. That's what her teammates have.

93
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 2: They have bricks for hands. They don't catch the ball.

94
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 2: And you know what part of it Two when you

95
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 2: play with someone like White, Kaylyn Clarkenbook, I've not played

96
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: the NBA, but I've been fortunate to play with some

97
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 2: good basketball over the years. Is a year youth and

98
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 2: some AU stuff and some some summer ball stuff. Is like,

99
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 2: when you play with someone like her, you have to

100
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 2: always be ready for the ball. And it's a new

101
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 2: experience for people that don't play with someone like her.

102
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 2: And you can even put this in NBA. I mean,

103
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: you know, there's been guys and we just you know,

104
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 2: Bill Walton just passed obviously a couple of weeks ago.

105
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 2: He's one of those guys like, if you weren't ready

106
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: for the ball, you were gonna tumble it, like you

107
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: always be right, he was gonna pass you the ball.

108
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 2: You always to be ready for the ball. And the

109
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: ladyship plays are not ready for the ball. They fumbled

110
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 2: the ball away so much. And uh answers a rookie

111
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 2: on a bad team the first pick overall for a reason.

112
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and listen, we've got a lot of stuff to

113
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: get to today. The ball buffet is in effect, Jeff.

114
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: We've got a lot of NFL to get to. Yeah,

115
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: some other NBA stuff that I think is interesting. But

116
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: sticking with this as we wind down, Phoenix is up

117
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: by seven with under four minutes to play. It's this

118
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: is gonna sound hyperbolic, and I don't mean it to

119
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: sound like that at all, but it does remind me.

120
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: Hang with me, because there's gonna be like, I don't mean,

121
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: like some shock value to begin with, but with Caitlyn

122
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: Clark on the road, when her team scores, and especially

123
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: when she scores, the the cheering that takes place, how

124
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: loud it is, it reminds me of the nineties Bowls

125
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: with Michael Jordan and I'm not saying she's Mike. I'm

126
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: not saying anything like that, but it just reminds me

127
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: of like the Beatles factor when they're on the road.

128
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: It's there already with Caitlyn Clark. It's wild.

129
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 2: You know, I thought about this because you know, they've

130
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 2: showed the arenas that she's playing this year. They've showed

131
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 2: how you know, they've they've had to move from some

132
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: of the smaller venues to the you know, the larger

133
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 2: NBA arenas, right, And it's so fascinating to me because

134
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: you know, like her style of play and the way

135
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 2: people shoot threes now is is not you know, that unique,

136
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 2: especially with NBA players like Steph Curry, But I think

137
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 2: that we just love the performative nature of her game, right,

138
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: Like that's what it is. You want to see players

139
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 2: just chuck up logo. She met Logo three in Seattle

140
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 2: the other night. Like it's just she just plays a

141
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: game that again, it's not that it's not it's not

142
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 2: that different from other players. They're just the way she

143
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: she carries herself on the court, the shot selections she has,

144
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: it just feels more exciting when she does it than

145
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 2: anyone else.

146
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's true.

147
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 2: It's like I don't know, like why that is exactly

148
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,239
Speaker 2: because but like Sabrina Escue, she's just as many threes

149
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: as her. It makes just as many of them, but

150
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: they don't look as a certain way, like they don't

151
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 2: look as exciting as the one Calen Clark takes.

152
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: Right, It's and Sabrina's great at what she does, but

153
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: her form isn't as interesting, right, Like she has some

154
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: deep threes, but I don't know, she's a little more

155
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: mechanical a little bit. I don't mean that as it

156
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: disc but like, wow, factor with is different.

157
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: Her legs go like Canon Clark's legs play out and

158
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,679
Speaker 2: let's go over the place. Yeah, mean, dude, they're selling

159
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 2: out even even my daughter. Today's my son. I think

160
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: I had on the Liberty game earlier for a little

161
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: bit in between some Euro soccer matches and my son

162
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 2: are the Fever playing. I was like, no, that's later.

163
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 2: He said, Oh, okay, that's that's Katon Clark's team. I'm like, yep,

164
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: that is It is like, like I don't know how

165
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 2: he know. I thought, like, we don't spend a ton

166
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 2: of time talking about can and Clark in our house,

167
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: but everyone just knows who she is.

168
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: Wow, Yeah, it's uh. And she grabbed a rebound, so

169
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: I believe she's one rebound away.

170
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 2: That's pretty awesome. A triple double against the basically the

171
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 2: team of the players who said you couldn't play in

172
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 2: this league at this level.

173
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: At least initially. Yeah, right, Yeah, But I think.

174
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: There's some I think that there is. It sounded to

175
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 2: me like there was a little bit more than just

176
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 2: like this year. It sounded a lot like we don't

177
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 2: know she'll make it. It felt a little harsher than that.

178
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 2: But and the criticism is totally valid because we've seen

179
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 2: in every league that you know, rookie year is hard man,

180
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 2: especially in this thing. You weren't She went right from college,

181
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 2: one month of training camp right to the WNBA season.

182
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 2: Now they're going to take a break for the Olympics soon,

183
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: which I think will be pretty helpful for her. I

184
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 2: actually think I said at the time, Brian, we haven't

185
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 2: done a show in quite a while. Now I've been traveling.

186
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: Is I think it's actually better for her personally to

187
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 2: miss the Olympics. She needs a little bit of like

188
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 2: time to relax a little She needs like a little

189
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: bit of like she she basically carried college basketball for

190
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 2: so many months, right, and now she's had this media

191
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 2: storm around her and wa even going so far as

192
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 2: you know, you know, ladies in the league questioning if

193
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 2: she has their back, you know, like all these and

194
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 2: it's gone way past just basketball, Like the three or

195
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 2: four weeks off she's going to get in this summer

196
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: of not doing the Olympics. I think it'd be really

197
00:09:59,480 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 2: great for her.

198
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be if she definitely gets a chance

199
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: to recharge and all of that. We've only got about

200
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: two minutes to go, and Indiana can cut it to

201
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: a one point deficit. There was a flagrant one. I get.

202
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: I can't believe these are our lives. Now we're breaking

203
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: down WNBA games. I love this leading up to the game.

204
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: This is beautiful. Diana Tarassi asked a question and did

205
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: not go in depth. Check this out, though.

206
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 3: I'm storing into facing Kami Park for the first time

207
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 3: on Sunday.

208
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be fun, that's it. Yeah, it'll be fun.

209
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 2: They just don't want to get asked about it. This

210
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,959
Speaker 2: is all look right. The veterans reaction is is totally

211
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 2: I totally understand it because I look, I've been those

212
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 2: spots before. God, the rest of our team is just

213
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 2: not good. Like you, you don't want to talk about

214
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 2: a young player that you feel has not earned the

215
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 2: right to be talked about. As you mentioned, there's levels

216
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 2: to what she said. There's levels to attention that you

217
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 2: generate in sports leagues, and a lot of times that

218
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 2: attention veterans feel has to be earned. And then in

219
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 2: this league, especially because you know there has been a

220
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 2: steady rise in viewership and attention paid to w I

221
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 2: know I personally watch more partly because you know, I

222
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 2: a Sabrina fan, and she went to Oregon. I tried

223
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 2: to follow the you know, the organ team out and whatnot.

224
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 2: She married off. It's alignment too, So she's very smart

225
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,199
Speaker 2: and and so you know, I've watched more of it,

226
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: and so I understand the veterans feeling of like, hey,

227
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 2: there's been stories to cover before, y'all haven't been here

228
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 2: to cover them. Why we're talking about a woman who

229
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 2: hasn't even set foot in our league yet. And I

230
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 2: get that feeling, but also comes off as jealousy, which

231
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 2: is again a natural feeling to have in that situation. Brian. Yeah,

232
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 2: but when she's helped But thinking about Brian, sorry, the

233
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: last there is she's helping the league so much by

234
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: her presence, by her fandom around her, and she herself.

235
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,559
Speaker 2: I don't know her at all. All I can go

236
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 2: off is what I've seen her, how I've seen her

237
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 2: playing at their times. She shrugs her teammates and and

238
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 2: you know, doesn't look at the best team of all time.

239
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: But I think generally speaking, she seems like a good teammate.

240
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 2: I can't she's like a good you know, a good person.

241
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 2: I think, I don't know how else to say it.

242
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: So like she's not bringing on the christm on herself.

243
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: So it comes off his jealousy a lot of times.

244
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 2: But I understand where the jealousy comes from.

245
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it's to me the the Diana Tarassi thing

246
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 1: where she's like, yeah, it'll be fun. That's what you

247
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: explained it at the beginning, where it comes across as

248
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: a veteran that's like, man, this rookie really hasn't she

249
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: hasn't done anything yet.

250
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 2: So well the other time with a minute and half left,

251
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean.

252
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: I just don't want to be waxing poetic or talking

253
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: about her like crazy. It's like, I think she's a

254
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 1: competitive maniac. And I mean that as a compliment with

255
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: Diana t ROSSI. Now, if you go Kennedy Carter and

256
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 1: sort of like Bill Goldberg spear Youkaylee like it's pro

257
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: wrestling or something. Now, now that goes to the next

258
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: level where there's a little bit more animosity or jealous

259
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 1: whatever is going on there.

260
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 2: The officiating in this league ain't crat either, by the way.

261
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 2: I've noticed that. Not my favorite officiated league. No, I

262
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: feel like that it could be the case in a

263
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 2: lot of places. But sometimes they like sort of it

264
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 2: just they let things go sometimes and they get really ticky, tacky,

265
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 2: and I don't know what. I don't know what they're

266
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 2: doing sometimes, but I feel like that's you can make

267
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: a grape of every league. But here we are, I mean,

268
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: Fever down down two with a minute about minute left. Well,

269
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: now now it's tied and they have and one with

270
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 2: a minute twenty two. So there's a pretty big win

271
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 2: for for for the Fever. I think it's a pretty

272
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 2: cool story then going and get this one because Phoenix

273
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 2: is good, right, They're still good. I think they got there.

274
00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: Right they don't.

275
00:13:58,600 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 2: They have three or four Olympians on their team.

276
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they're not as great as they used to be.

277
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: You know, Diana is a little bit older, a lot older.

278
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 1: Forty two. I can't believe she's forty two. She's forty

279
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: two years old.

280
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 2: Man. Yeah. Yeah, Brittany Grinder is tall. I think that

281
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 2: you sometimes here like and we had we had a

282
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 2: woman's called baschtball played organ. It was six six when

283
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: I was there, and that's how tall I am. And

284
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 2: she look between the eye and it's it's still like

285
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: to see Brittany Grinder on the court. Yeah, she's tall.

286
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: She is tall, and she gets a lot of rebounds.

287
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: Yeah she is. She's a tree out there and just

288
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 1: got filed down low. So we'll see. We got some

289
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: drama a little more than a minute, Togo. We got

290

Speaker 1: talent on it. Up on Game.

Speaker 1: and Plexico.

313
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 4: Burds on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you

314
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 4: get your podcast from.

315
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: It is Fox Sports Radio. He's Jeff Schwartz, I'm Brian no.

316
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: So we got a huge name. We got a big

317
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: name on the open market right now. Lebron James opts

318
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: out is eyeing a new contract with the Lakers. There

319
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: and Paul George he opted out. That's the big name

320
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: and let's start with Lebron for obvious reasons. Jeff, you

321
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: look at this and the news is that he's willing

322
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: to take a haircut contractually, right, He's willing to take

323
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: maybe a twenty million dollar haircut on his fifty ish

324
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: million dollar contract in order to get a veteran like

325
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: James Harden or Klay Thompson or our guy Big V

326
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: Jonas Valenchunis. And I don't know why more superstars don't

327
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: do this. If you look at Lebron, if he's able

328
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: to surround himself with a better supporting cast and they're

329
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: able to make a run, if they're able to mess

330
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: around and win a championship, he's gonna make so much

331
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: more money then he will be losing by leaving somewhere

332
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: in the neighborhood of twenty million dollar dollars on the table.

333
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: Tom Brady did this for years. He didn't command top dollar,

334
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,240
Speaker 1: and that certainly helped his pursuit of a championship year

335
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: after a year. I don't know why more superstars don't

336
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: do this. Patrick Mahomes could be commanding even more money

337
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 1: than he's gotten and he's left some on the table,

338
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: and I think that has helped him so Lebron, he's

339
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: at least willing to do this. We'll see what happens, though,

340
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: I think it's.

341
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: It's hard to take less money anytime in your life

342
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 2: for the good of the organization, you know, because a

343
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 2: lot of times coveries one is I think players don't

344
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 2: trust the organization to make those right decisions. Now Lebron

345
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 2: is doing this where he's saying, like, you bring me

346
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 2: the contract that someone's gonna sign that all do my

347
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: deal right, Like he's afforded the opportunity to do because

348
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 2: he's Lebron James, right, and everyone knows he's coming back

349
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 2: she no matter what price. So he can give himself

350
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: the opportunity to say, hey, man, show me the mid level.

351
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,359
Speaker 2: And I believe that they're just going for a mid

352
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: level exemption, right, it's a one player that he would

353
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: like to add. Lebron will will adjust his contract accordingly.

354
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 2: Most of the time, you know your players are on

355
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 2: that situation right where if Patrick Mahomes says, all take less,

356
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 2: the Chiefs don't have to spend the money, right Like

357
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 2: they don't have to, they're obligated to do so, and

358
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 2: his deal would basically be taking less and then the

359
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 2: chiefs are proving to him, we're using your money to

360
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 2: buy their place. This is the reverse, right where Lebron's

361
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: gonna wait essentially until they decide whether or not they're

362
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 2: going to use that and who they're going to use

363
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 2: it on, and that deal has been done before it's

364
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 2: signing his contract. Right. It's just a big difference in

365
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 2: those two situations. But also to Brian, the job of

366
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 2: you know, your agent and the NFL PA or NBA

367
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 2: PA is to get the most money. You can't. Hey,

368
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 2: it looks good for you and you make the most money.

369
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 2: But also too, is that it advances the next contract.

370
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 2: Right now, that's a little bit different because their deals

371
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 2: are locked by the salary cap and different sort of

372
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: you know, max deals and bird rights all this stuff. Right,

373
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 2: it's more locked into place than the NFL. But you know,

374
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 2: if Patrick Mahomes only takes you know, forty two a

375
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 2: year and he can make fifty five a year, yeah,

376
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 2: then everyone else can be like, well, I'm not paying

377
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 2: two of fifty five, I'm paying two of forty one.

378
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 2: So that's that's why players and agents have a hard

379
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: time a green to take less money, because as Brady

380
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 2: took less money there at the end with the Patriot,

381
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 2: did they get him a wide receiver ever?

382
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 3: No?

383
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 2: So you know, like it's hard to do that because

384
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 2: you're not guaranteed that they're going to do that.

385
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, you're not guaranteed you're going to be surrounded

386
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: by the top players. But listen for superstars to be

387
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: willing to do that, they've been I'll put it this way.

388
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,359
Speaker 1: There's been a lot of star players that have not

389
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 1: been willing to do that where they have commanded top

390
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: dollar and sometimes we know this, you got to skimp.

391
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: If you're giving a huge in the NFL, you're giving

392
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: a huge, top of the market value type deal, you

393
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 1: got to skimp elsewhere on the roster. That's just the

394
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 1: way it goes. And yeah, some superstars have not been

395
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 1: willing to do that. So to at least hear that

396
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: Lebron's willing to do that, it could pay dividends. I

397
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: think this roster is far away from truly competing for

398
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: a championship, but being willing to do that. I mean,

399
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: it's great PR too, He's very PR savvy, But I

400
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,120
Speaker 1: do think that it's it makes sense to at least

401
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: leave that possibility open by the way this WNBA game

402
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: is winding down. Great out of bounce play by Phoenix.

403
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: Down by three, they threw the ball to Britney Grinder

404
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 1: and her teammate kicked the ball over to Indiana and

405
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: that basically, you know, sealed the win for the Fever.

406
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: A nice win for them on the road.

407
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: He's a great win for them again, like kind of

408
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 2: like just kind of quiet going about it again in

409
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 2: that win.

410
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: Dude, Betting is so frustrating, Jeff, I have not I have.

411
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 2: No money anything right now, So it's not it's not fun.

412
00:20:58,840 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 2: I don't know why we do it.

413
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: I don't either. I don't know. It's I think like

414
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: my mindset should be more realistic because when you bet,

415
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure you're the same way. You're like, oh I

416
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: like this bet, I'm gonna bet this and I'm gonna

417
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 1: have fun today, and it's the opposite. A lot of times.

418
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,960
Speaker 1: It's it's like, hey, how could I get really frustrated today? Oh?

419
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 1: I know I could bet it's off and how it

420
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: works out? Right? I took Phoenix on the live line.

421
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,159
Speaker 1: I'm like, I think Phoenix is coming back. Fever had

422
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: a huge third quarter. They're gonna punch back, and they did,

423
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: and then they stopped punching and they lost the game. Meanwhile,

424
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: yesterday I had the Detroit Tigers, thought it was a

425
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: good line. They're up five to two, Jeff. Somehow they

426
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:49,440
Speaker 1: lost in extras six to five. And then today, just

427
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: to twist the knife, they're leading seven to nothing. Where

428
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: it's like, I don't have a nickel on the Tigers today.

429
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: I was betting on them. Yesterday they had a three

430
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: run lead late and somehow screwed it all up. It's

431
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 1: I don't know why we do it. You said it best.

432
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: I don't know why.

433
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 2: It's not It's not fun. Nothing about it is fun.

434
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 2: We need Hoby, we do it anyways, I have no

435
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 2: many I think it's the first time we've done a

436
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 2: radio show in a long time where I have nothing

437
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 2: on anything right now.

438
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: Well, it's it's early, you know, it's very early. Right now.

439
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 2: I'm already out on baseball. I'm aready done with baseball today.

440
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 2: I had no w I said soccer ready today, like

441
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 2: I'm I had a double chance on Slovenia England hit.

442
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 2: I didn't know what a double chance was talking we

443
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 2: could go, but I'm using to my advantage nice.

444
00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: You don't have anything on the Rockies game. You normally

445
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 1: fade that.

446
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they're playing the other team.

447
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so.

448
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,439
Speaker 2: I can't I say, not that serious.

449
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 3: I know.

450
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's not great, right.

451
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: No, it is. We'll get to the other big name

452
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 1: on the open market and some rumors that are swirling.

453
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: First though, Martin Weiss with us this afternoon.

454
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 5: Martin, what's going on, man, Rockies White Sox game. I mean,

455
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 5: don't get me wrong, two teams that stink, but it

456
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 5: has been wild five to four right now on the

457
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 5: top of the fifth, fourteenth inning in the net game

458
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 5: that you're talking about. So, Jeff, if you had bet

459
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 5: on it, you would be stressing out majorly because why

460
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 5: are they playing fourteen innings between these two teams?

461
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 6: And you just said it, Brian.

462
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 5: The Tigers seven Angels nothing in the fifth inning, Minnesota

463
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 5: with a three to thing lead over Seattle in the fifth,

464
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 5: Oakland and Arizona tied one apiece in the sixth, and

465
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 5: the Giants over the Dodgers right now, nine to one

466
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 5: in the sixth inning, and the WNBA the.

467
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 6: Fever beat the Mercury eighty eight to eighty two. After that,

468
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 6: soccer play that they called.

469
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 5: On the inbounds where Britney Grinder caught it and then

470
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 5: kicked it right to Indiana. That pretty much did seal

471
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 5: the game for Indiana. They win by six. Links pinked

472
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 5: the sky seventy to sixty two. Angel Reese made history

473
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 5: most consecutive double doubles in a season, with ten so

474
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 5: far in a row, finishing with ten points and seventeen rebounds.

475
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 6: And it was a little bit of drama.

476
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 5: She hit the last free throw with like three seconds

477
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 5: left on the clock to go ahead and get that

478
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 5: tenth point. Round of sixteen has kicked off. At the

479
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,120
Speaker 5: Euro twenty twenty four, England defeated Slovakia.

480
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 6: Two to one.

481
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,959
Speaker 5: Spain beat Georgia four to one. Andy Murray had spinal

482
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 5: surgery on June twenty second. He's trying to play Wimbledon,

483
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 5: which starts tomorrow. Says he plans to undergo medical tests,

484
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 5: play another practice set and make a decision.

485
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 2: In the evening.

486
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 5: Now, the NBA Detroit Pistons are hiring former Cabs head

487
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 5: coach JB. Bickerstaff as the franchise's next coach. According to ESPN,

488
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 5: it's a five year deal and the NBA free agency.

489
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 5: We'll have some updates on that coming up soon as

490
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 5: it the windows open in about twenty eight minutes.

491
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 6: Brian and Jeff back to you guys.

492
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: All right, thank you, Martin. It's Jeff Schwartz and Brian

493
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: Know here with you on Fox Sports Radio. How about

494
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: Paul George on the open market? So the rumor mill

495
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: swirling here, Jeff. According to Chris Haynes, there's growing optimism

496
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: that the Sixers could land Paul Georgian free agency.

497
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 2: I think that's the team that I think feels most

498
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 2: likely right to get in. That's the team people have

499
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 2: talked about is wanting Paul George. I don't know that

500
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 2: that changed your thoughts about them.

501
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I like Paul George and around Embiid and MAXI.

502
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: It'd be interesting certainly in the East, it would make

503
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 1: them interesting. But I mean, look, it's one of these

504
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 1: deals with Paul George. We've been interested for quite a

505
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: while and it just hasn't turned into anything. So the

506
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: Clippers run. A lot of that had to do with

507
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,360
Speaker 1: Kawhi and his injuries, but man, a lot of high

508
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: hopes in clipper Land and you got a whole lot

509
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 1: of nothing there with Paul George and Kawhi.

510
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 2: No, I don't know it. It feels very Clippers to

511
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 2: have that happen. I'm curious if George is the mid

512
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,160
Speaker 2: level exemption guy the Lakers want. Probably not going to happen,

513
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 2: but curious if does anyways, right.

514
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, uh, our trusted producer Bo Benson is what

515
00:25:58,440 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: he's got a thought on all.

516
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 7: No, he just said there's growing optimism. Do you think

517
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 7: that's related at all to Joel Embiid practically flirting with

518
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 7: Paul George on National TV a couple of weeks ago

519
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 7: during the NBA Finals or nah?

520
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it could have something. I feel like that.

521
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 2: This has been talked about though as a as a

522
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 2: pair for yeah a while now.

523
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 7: NBA free agency is just so funny because, like like yesterday,

524
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 7: for example, you have Lebron could take a pay cut,

525
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 7: right and then two minutes after that, oh, Clay Thompson's

526
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 7: probably leaving Golden State, and then all of a sudden,

527
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 7: like could Clay Thompson And it's just also telegraphed. It's

528
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 7: so funny to me, Well.

529
00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: Because these guys have the same four agents and exactly

530
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 2: their friends they talk all the time. It's not anything

531
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 2: different than you know what the NFL haves. They just

532
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 2: felt pretend to care about tampering.

533
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's it too. Like you saw the

534
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 7: Sixers leak a couple of weeks ago, like, oh, they're

535
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 7: not that interested in Paul George. I think they just

536
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 7: didn't want to get hit with any tampering investigation.

537
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 2: Tampering is it's very silly that that that's something that

538
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 2: seems to people in you know, seem to actually care

539
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 2: about in the I mean, come on, we all know.

540
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 1: It's happening, right, Yeah, it's weird, right, it's a it's

541
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: just a league thing. It's strange, right, It's kind of

542
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,479
Speaker 1: like speeding on the highway. We know what happens all

543
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: the time, and every now and then they'll be like,

544
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: all right, let's pull over this random guy, Like that's

545
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: what tampering is in the NBA. In the NFL, it

546
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: happens all the time, and then just selectively they'll be like,

547
00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 1: you know what, let's crack down on the Falcons and

548
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 1: them talking to Kirk Cousins. It's just strange.

549
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 2: It's never made sense. Why tampering is you know, so

550
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 2: worried about it, But in this in the NBA. Obviously,

551
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,159
Speaker 2: the tampering is NonStop. I mean again, we're going to

552
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 2: get this is going to start, you know, in a

553
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 2: couple of minutes at sixth Eastern, and we're gonna get

554
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 2: the Wojes tweets as we do, the schefter tweets right

555
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: like so and so is signed with what so and so?

556
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 2: Like how do you know that already? Yeah? Everyone knows already,

557
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:52,560
Speaker 2: that's right.

558
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 1: Yeah. How long once free agency begins? How long until

559
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: we have our first agreement? You know, are we talking already?

560
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 2: I guess we've already had players re signing to their

561
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 2: own teams. As far as actual new contracts, I would

562
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 2: say immediately, it's right six o'clock.

563
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: What's the over under like five and a half minutes?

564
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: Oh well no, immediately right away? Yeah, right away?

565
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, okay, Paul George will have taken his meetings with

566
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 7: the Clippers Sixers in Magic within sixty seconds of free

567
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 7: agency opening.

568
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: Is this like a UFC thing, you know, when there's

569
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: a knockout in the first nineteen seconds or something like that?

570
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 1: Is that NBA free agency?

571
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 2: Do you know what I think? Do you know? I

572
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 2: think we'll have a deals done immediately No, I.

573
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: Think you might be right. I think you might be right,

574
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: But because it's happened before, Uh yeah, I don't think.

575
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 2: I think. I think we're going to immediately get to that.

576
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 2: We're going to get these WOJE bombs wherever you want

577
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 2: to use shams like, we're gonna get people signed sign

578
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 2: up already.

579
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 1: By the way, Paul George, he's reportedly going to meet

580
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: with the Clippers, the Sixers, and Orlando supposed to meet

581
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: with the Magic. Do you think of Paul George maybe

582
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: with a Paolo Bancaro in company over there in Orlando?

583
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 2: Jay chasing a ring at this point doesn't feel like

584
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 2: a very ring chasing to me.

585
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: Orlando would not be ring chasing. Yeah, I hear you.

586
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 2: But at this point it for no state tax.

587
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. It's the no state tax contract,

588
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 1: right basically, Yeah, going to Orlando. Yeah. It's funny too

589
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: because Paul George and Klay Thompson are only a few

590
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: months apart in age. They're both thirty six years old,

591
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: and Clay he's a handful of months older. Doesn't Klay

592
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: Thompson feel way older than Paul George. Like my theory

593
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 1: is because Klay Thompson's been in the playoffs so often.

594
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: We've seen him in the playoffs a year after year

595
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 1: after year except this year, right, But uh, and I

596
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: think that when you've seen him win four championships and

597
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,719
Speaker 1: go deep in the playoffs all those times, I think

598
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: he feels way older, yeah than Paul George doesn't need.

599
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 2: To you, he does. Plus, I think his body kind

600
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 2: of wearing down a little bit more than you know then,

601
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 2: you know, Uh, I think players of the same age

602
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,520
Speaker 2: a little bit. Right, He's injured and injured and things

603
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 2: like that that we look at and and maybe think

604
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 2: he's he's much older than he is. I mean the injury,

605
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 2: you know, the way we feel the injuries plays, I

606
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 2: think a big role.

607
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 1: In that, right, Yeah, that that is in that's part

608
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 1: of it as well. But it's weird too because Clay

609
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: missed basically two full seasons with those injuries with the

610
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 1: al Yeah, and he still feels older to Maybe.

611
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 2: I'm curious about his landing spot because you know, he's

612
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 2: more of a three, right, like as far as your

613
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 2: third option, your third scoring option, and I need to

614
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 2: be pretty beneficial. He could just spot up and shoot

615
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 2: right as sort of to to a contender, like the

616
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 2: Lakers need someone Clay's not as goods used to be.

617
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 2: The Lakers deciminately need someone that just shoot the ball

618
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: in the corner.

619
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, if he could do that, if he could

620
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: be your just spot up and drain three's type guy, Yeah,

621
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: that could be a nice little role for him. So

622
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see where he lands as well.

623
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 2: Is look, freidency is what. It's twenty two minutes away now,

624
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 2: so we'll see if who wins the wager, Brian, whether

625
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 2: or not you know I NBA very quickly, guys. Two

626
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 2: day draft, really is that something that we needed? Well?

627
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 2: That draft?

628
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: My whole thing is, if you're gonna do two days, okay,

629
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: why the hell is the second day starting at four

630
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: pm Eastern time? Why that's one pm out west? People

631
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: are working, Like why would you have the draft on

632
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: during the middle of the work day. Put it in

633
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: primetime if you're gonna do it for two days?

634
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just made especially like this year, you're like, yeah,

635
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 2: one round is pretty much okay, We're okayeh, one round.

636
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: But if there was ever a time where the second

637
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: round had something to look forward to, it was this

638
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: year with Bronnie James and you started at one pm

639
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: Pacific time. That just made no sense to me whatsoever

640
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: if you space it out. Okay, but like, think about

641
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: the NFL. They have rounds two and three on Friday,

642
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: and it's in primetime. They don't have it at one

643
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: pm Pacific time and it's the second round. It's just stupid.

644
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:25,760
Speaker 1: NFL would never do something like that.

645
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 2: They would never do something like that. So I was

646
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 2: surprised to see you that was a two day event.

647
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 2: And maybe but Bronnie was a pick to the end

648
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 2: of it either. It was just it just was sort

649
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 2: of like there. Yeah. I also I also read a

650
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 2: post like a like a draft grade sort of article Brian,

651
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 2: And Yeah, the person that I read it that they

652
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: had they they gave no grade lower than a B

653
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 2: minus for the entire NBA draft for all sixty picks,

654
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 2: which is just hilarious. Can you reach an NFL draft

655
00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 2: and every draft pick was just a be a B

656
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 2: minus better, You'd be like, Ah, I'm not sure I

657
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 2: trust that person.

658
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: It's like, there's so many international players. I think some

659
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 1: of that factors in where you're like, I'm supposed to

660
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: be doing these draft assessment grades and I just learned

661
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,000
Speaker 1: of this dude last week. You know, I'm gonna go

662
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: be minus be minus sounds about. It's just a total

663
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: guessing game. You know, not even halfway familiar with some

664
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: of these dudes the NBA.

665
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 2: I think it's not a problem per se, but it's

666
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 2: it just it was a It's not good when the

667
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 2: best player in the in a draft or the number

668
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 2: one player drafted. Just no one's ever seen play like Wemby.

669
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 2: We saw like we've seen how it's Wenby for years.

670
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 2: Everyone knew who he is. You couldn't pick the top

671
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 2: two guys out of a lineup. I might actually get

672
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: pick Reed Shepherd out of a lineup unless you were like,

673
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 2: unless you were like like a savant of college basketball.

674
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: I doesn't feel good for you, doesn't feel good for

675
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: your I would go with the first half overs for

676
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: Kentucky's team total every now and then I knew Reed Shepherd.

677
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: I still can't pronounce the name of the dude who

678
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 1: went number one overall. That's insane. He's the number one

679
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 1: overall pick and most NBA fans can't pronounce his name.

680
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 1: That's crazy. All right, Coming up next, we've got drama here.

681
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: Jeff two stories, both involving high drama, one involving a theft,

682
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: one involving a contractual situation. We'll get to both of

683
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,440

691
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,320
Speaker 1: betting the Oakland A's Jeff, you want to come on

692
00:34:58,480 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: board this one here?

693
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,839
Speaker 2: Huh sure?

694
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 7: What are we doing?

695
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: The screw Arizona?

696
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 2: You know why?

697
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 1: Why is Arizona like minus two twenty five or what?

698
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 2: Like?

699
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: Why let's go with Oakland on the road here? But

700
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: I say, as soon as I was telling Bo and

701
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,439
Speaker 1: Chris just a second ago off the year led Me's

702
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 1: das former Cardinals shortstop. He's now with Oakland. Jeff. His

703
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: batting average is one o seven. He's hitting one oh seven, dude, that.

704
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 2: Feels less than ideal. Not a baseball expert, but two

705
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 2: hundred typically is is a number you want to be.

706
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 2: There are many times that I need something to happen

707
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 2: in a baseball game positively for me. And I will

708
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 2: look up at the screen of the baseball game I'm

709
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 2: watching and the guy that's hitting that he based he

710
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 2: from his batting one fifty four in June, and you're like,

711
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 2: I just I wish it was better. I wish I

712
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:00,399
Speaker 2: wish you would do better.

713
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 7: I feel like we only need to apologize to Mario

714
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 7: Mendoza after seeing this.

715
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 6: This guy's line fight.

716
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,959
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, two hundred right, he's hitting one oh seven, Jeff,

717
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 1: and he flied out to right. He might be one

718
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 1: o six.

719
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 2: Now that is actually pretty bad.

720
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 1: It's like it's not true, just despicable. Yeah, Arizona. So

721
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 1: it's one one heading into the bottom of the seventh.

722
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: Arizona is minus two ten on the money line. You

723
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: can get Oakland at plus one sixty if you're feeling saucy. Now, warning,

724
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: fair warning, the bets lately have been freaking terrible today. Okay,

725
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 1: so yeah, I'm gonna do it.

726
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 2: I'm actually adding up. I'm actually as in the breaks here.

727
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 2: You know, I keep my spreadsheet. I'm adding up. I

728
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 2: haven't done it for three days and I'm gonna. I'm

729
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 2: gonna it's been a bad It's not only great three days.

730
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: Oh man, we got a rally here.

731
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,280
Speaker 2: Part of it is, you know, I fade the Marlins

732
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: every day and the Phillies have just been killing me. Man.

733
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I did.

734
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 2: I did have a little, a little Phillies money line

735
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 2: today when they were losing. So I should have made

736
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:01,719
Speaker 2: at a little bit back.

737
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 1: But they were down big, they were down like six

738
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: to two.

739
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 2: I want to say I saw it for the month,

740
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,400
Speaker 2: but I took a good hit. It took good hit

741
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,479
Speaker 2: the last three days. Yeah, but that's that's gambling rights partan.

742
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:13,440
Speaker 2: You have to stick with you if you if you

743
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 2: have like a method, you's gotta stick with it.

744
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: Absolutely you do. Okay, So the drama going on here

745
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:22,880
Speaker 1: for a story, let's do it. JaMarcus Russell, Oh no,

746
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: I saw this. Yes, former number one overall pick. He's

747
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:30,880
Speaker 1: been fired as a high school football coach. Why bad record? No.

748
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 1: He's accused Jeff of taking a seventy four thousand dollars

749
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 1: check that was meant as a donation. He's accused of

750
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: doing that. He's out of a gig as a high

751
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 1: school football coach is not yeah, not.

752
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 2: Not great, right, idea not ideal, not ideal. Look, he

753
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 2: should have enough money after his you know, even though

754
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: he wasn't a great career, he got he was the

755
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 2: old old system, right, Brian. He was getting a lot

756
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 2: of money back then, and it's unfortunate that he's got

757
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 2: a situation where he needs this money to, you know,

758
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 2: to essentially, I guess no survive paid bills. Less than ideal,

759
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,920
Speaker 2: but not great to steal from your high school man.

760
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:11,919
Speaker 2: But you're and coach.

761
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, great, Like you said, that was before the rookie

762
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: wage scale. So he was drafted in seven, right, I believe,

763
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 1: and the rookie wage scale I think it kicked in

764
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: in twenty eleven.

765
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, the twenty eleven CBA is when it started.

766
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's when Cam Newton was the number one overall pick.

767
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, JaMarcus got huge money. So to your point,

768
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: he shouldn't be in a position where he has to

769
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:37,839
Speaker 1: steal money from its high school that he's coaching. That's

770
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 1: what he's accused of. The other drama here, the ongoing saga, Jeff,

771
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,400
Speaker 1: can we please make it end? With forty nine ers

772
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: wide receiver Brandon Nayyuk. He is looking for a contract extension,

773
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: and it has just been drama, drama, drama, drama, drama.

774
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:59,919
Speaker 1: It's the Niners are actively seeking a trade, and brand

775
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 1: Yuke like, wait a minute, I thought they weren't seeking

776
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: a trade. At some point, he's probably gonna get his

777
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 1: contract extension as a member of the Niners. That's what

778
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: I'm expecting. But we are taking the long scenic route

779
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 1: filled with drama on the way to that destination.

780
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I uh, this is interesting to me,

781
00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 2: and I don't know if you have enough time to

782
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:23,839
Speaker 2: get into this now. I wonder if the Niners are

783
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 2: thicking to themselves. We can't pay everybody Block Pretty's up

784
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 2: for extension after this season, Trent Williams, the left tackles

785
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 2: getting paid, their tight ends getting paid, their running backs

786
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 2: getting paid, their other wide receivers getting paid. They have

787
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 2: guys some defense getting paid. They need to pay other

788
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 2: guys on defense, and maybe they're just like drawing the

789
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,919
Speaker 2: line with like brand Ay, We're just drawing the line, buddy,

790
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 2: You're not getting Judge Jefferson deal, Like we just can't

791
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 2: swing that right now. You're just not getting I wonder

792
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 2: if if the line is being drawn right now with

793
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 2: their future and who they're willing to pay to keep

794
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 2: on the team, it could be.

795
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 1: It could be. And that's what's interesting with these contracts

796
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: and nego sociations, is only a little bit of it

797
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 1: leaks out publicly, you know, a very little bit. But

798
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. We're only hearing from

799
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 1: Brandon Aiyuk when he's throwing stuff out there either on

800
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: ig his storylines going on, but we're not hearing from

801
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: the organization. The organization could be their position could be

802
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 1: exactly what you just explained, Like, bro, we got a

803
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: lot of players to pay, and we can't give you

804
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: top of the market level deal here. That's a reasonable position.

805
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: But they're not gonna state that publicly.

806
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: The Niners have no reasons to negotiating public It's not

807
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 2: he's on the team no matter what this season if

808
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 2: he doesn't even like if he doesn't like it, he's

809
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 2: going to training campus for the team. So the Niners

810
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 2: just saying, hey man, we're just gonna stay out this.

811
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 2: We're not gonna get it to a pensing contest on

812
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 2: the internet. Yeah.

813
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a smart way to do it, all right,

814
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 1: coming up next, an interesting prediction about the top offenses

815
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 1: in the NFL this season. I've got a beef with

816
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 1: a couple of teams on the list. Oh, we got ball,

817
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 1: and we've got some breaking news. Little combo platter for you. Here,

Speaker 1: stuff going on over here, Jeff Schwartz. We've got the Warriors.

824
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: They are waiving Chris Paul. He will be an unrestricted

825
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 1: free agent. And we also have the Beard, James Harden.

826
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: He plans to return to the Clippers to your deal

827
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 1: seventy million dollars?

828
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 2: Does this count as as do I win? The better?

829
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 2: You were talking about new We want new new teams

830
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 2: and new deals.

831
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: We need a Yeah, we need a player going to

832
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 1: a new team team.

833
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, yeah, but Heyklay Thompson signed, they will sign

834
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 2: and trade for Clay Thompson'll work with them to sign

835
00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 2: and trade.

836
00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,359
Speaker 1: Now, that would be crazy if it's like a sign

837
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:00,640
Speaker 1: and trade right here, they're.

838
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: Gonna work on a sign and trade option for him. Look,

839
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: Chris Paul's a fast I won't use Chris Paul with

840
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 2: this even like Kevin Durant and James Harden, Like, it's

841
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 2: it's fascinating to me how many teams these Hall of

842
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 2: famers are gonna end up playing on. Yeah, you just

843
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 2: don't see that happen in other sports where these legacy

844
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:30,880
Speaker 2: Hall of famers and it looks it's not it happens.

845
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,879
Speaker 2: You know, Jerry Rice and the Seahawks uniform is weird,

846
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 2: but that doesn't happen very often in like, you know

847
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 2: a lot of these sports where guys are playing four

848
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 2: or five six teams that are Hall of famers, And

849
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,839
Speaker 2: Chris Paul has now been, off the top of my head, right,

850
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 2: he's been this is this fifth team? Is that right?

851
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,040
Speaker 1: So it's got to be in the neighborhood right where

852
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 1: he's Uh, well, you go through all of it with

853
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: and with the New Orleans, New.

854
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 2: Orleans Clippers, Yeah, Warriors, Warriors. Yeah, we're missing further missing one.

855
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 2: I mean, we should probably just look this up. But

856
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 2: like the point is, you know, it's just it's there's

857
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 2: it's just a lot of teams, superstars, these Hall of

858
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,160
Speaker 2: famers have played on, right, Brian, And yeah, it's so unique.

859
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 2: It makes me and it's not probably fair.

860
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 1: To them, but we forgot one Houston.

861
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:36,399
Speaker 2: You're right, Yeah, it does. See she's seven my math

862
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 2: right there. It does feel to me. And while these

863
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,759
Speaker 2: players are Hall of famers and some of the best

864
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,320
Speaker 2: to ever do, it, to me tarnishes their legacy a

865
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,280
Speaker 2: little bit to play on so many teams because they're

866
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 2: not Look, Lebron's played on not only believe or not,

867
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 2: it's three teams, right, but he did. He went to

868
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:55,280
Speaker 2: Cleveland twice.

869
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:55,879
Speaker 1: Right.

870
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 2: People always throw Lebron back at me, and okay, fine,

871
00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 2: but Lebron, you know he was specifically going to win

872
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 2: championships in these places. I don't know if that's what

873
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 2: Chris Paul's exactly doing. I think maybe he thinks that

874
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:11,399
Speaker 2: that's the case. But to me, to me personally, whether

875
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 2: it's right or wrong, feels a little wrong to feel

876
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 2: this way, But Briant does feel like a tarnishes their

877
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 2: legacy a little bit to plan so many teams just

878
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 2: sort of one year deals and not being able to

879
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 2: find a home at the end of your career. Uh,

880
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 2: maybe you don't feel that way, but it feels that

881
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 2: way to me. No, I hear you.

882
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: It's I never really thought about it like that. But

883
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:35,879
Speaker 1: when you look at Chris Paul, I think Chris Paul

884
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:40,759
Speaker 1: and Kevin Durant both really odd career paths. Where if

885
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:42,800
Speaker 1: you look at let's just start with Chris Paul, because

886
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 1: he was wighd by the Warriors, he's going to be

887
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: on another team, so Hornets, Clippers, Rockets, thunder Suns, Warriors,

888
00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:54,239
Speaker 1: and now another team that would be a seventh team,

889
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,439
Speaker 1: assuming he goes to a team other than the six

890
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 1: he's played for before, right, you know, so seven teams

891
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,839
Speaker 1: in his NBA career. I think with Chris Paul, it's

892
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,360
Speaker 1: less about the movement and it's more about just hasn't

893
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: won a championship, and it's just it sucks to see

894
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,480
Speaker 1: this end of his career because he was such a

895
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,919
Speaker 1: special player and now he's just these are his final

896
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 1: days in the NBA, you know, and he's half the

897
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:23,280
Speaker 1: player he used to be. With Kevin Durant, Kevin Durant

898
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 1: is one of the better players in the history of

899
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:30,359
Speaker 1: the NBA and he's had just this odd career path

900
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: where we don't know if he's still going to remain

901
00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: with the Suns or be on another team in this

902
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 1: next season. So that career path has been weird. Where look,

903
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 1: when he went to the Warriors and won those two championships,

904
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:51,280
Speaker 1: he was out standing and no one cares. Nobody cares

905
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 1: because he joined the team that beat him and we

906
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 1: all know that. But these last couple of trips with Brooklyn,

907
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 1: with Phoenix, now maybe another team, that's where it gets

908
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: a little bit odd with KD. So I put it

909
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 1: that way where I don't know that I lose respect

910
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 1: for a great players career if they've moved around a

911
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,400
Speaker 1: little bit more, but it feels a little bit odd,

912
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 1: feels a little bit different. But I would say for

913
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: Chris Paul and for KD, at least towards like the

914
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:23,600
Speaker 1: recent years, a lot of a lot more movement for

915
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:25,400
Speaker 1: top players than we're used to.

916
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 2: For sure, What is the what's the NFL equivalent of

917
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,839
Speaker 2: of Chris Paul? Like is it like what quarterback? Would

918
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 2: you say? As a man, Chris Paul?

919
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 1: You need someone that's on his level, right, like as

920
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: good You're not gonna see a really good quarterback move around.

921
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 2: That's my point. Like, what if Dak Prescott played on

922
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:52,799
Speaker 2: six teams? You'd be like, oh, right, like that's that's weird, right,

923
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,399
Speaker 2: Why why why can't you stick with the team? Why

924
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 2: is it what? And you would we would have many

925
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 2: many hours of debate. It's over Dak Prescott's personality traits

926
00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 2: and why can't stick with the team. That's true And

927
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,919
Speaker 2: in the NBA it feels very normalized now when again,

928
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 2: I mean, we didn't grow up with this. Obviously the

929
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 2: game is changing mightily. Since I'm not saying the game

930
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 2: should go back to the you know, the way it

931
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 2: used to be or whatnot, but it just it. It

932
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 2: does make me question players' careers when they're on their

933
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,320
Speaker 2: seventh team and their first ballot Hall of Famers.

934
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be a guy like Ryan Fitzpatrick played for

935
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 1: a ton of teams. But he's Ryan Fitzpatrick, you know

936
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:35,080
Speaker 1: what I mean? Like, yeah, he's a journeyman, backup, spot

937
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 1: starter type guy. He's not, say like Matthew Stafford. Matthew

938
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 1: Stafford is a really good quarterback. And I would say

939
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 1: Chris paul Ish, right, Like Chris paul Ish in the NFL.

940
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 1: He's played for two teams like Lions and Rams.

941
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 2: That's it.

942
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: That's the resume. He's not gonna be on the Bengals

943
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 1: followed by the Browns following. It just doesn't happen in

944
00:47:58,480 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: the NFL with top quarterback.

945
00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 2: And some of that, by the way, is that the

946
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 2: NBA is when more prayer U prayer. It might be

947
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,920
Speaker 2: prayer friendly, it's more player friendly, right, Like the players

948
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,240
Speaker 2: are able to move a little bit more more freedom.

949
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 2: It's more accepted the player movement right in the NFL,

950
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 2: you know, just personally, and I look, I was on

951
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 2: four teams in four years. It's really hard to do that.

952
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 2: It's just it's mentally grinding, it's physically grinding you. It's

953
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 2: just a whole, you know, uproot of your life and routines.

954
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 2: It's hard to do that. And maybe the NBA is

955
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 2: just just more money. He's gotta be Chris Paul's leaving.

956
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 2: But can you get thirty million dollars from someone else?

957
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,280
Speaker 2: Saw like he's gonna be Like I was getting minimum salary.

958
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 2: I'm not saying I was struggling for in life, but

959
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:44,879
Speaker 2: it's a little bit different here in thirty million dollars

960
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 2: a year to play one year in a new city

961
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 2: versus getting you know, five fifty a year, right, So,

962
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 2: I don't know, I just don't know how they just

963
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 2: do it every year with continuing to move and change

964
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,280
Speaker 2: and change locations and make new friends and meet new teammates.

965
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 2: And sure it's a lot of mercenary for higher and

966
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,520
Speaker 2: sometimes that can be really difficult in these guys.

967
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's the thing, especially toward the end of

968
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,720
Speaker 1: an NBA deal, That's where it differs in the NFL

969
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 1: is the guaranteed money. When Chris Paul signed a pretty

970
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:16,759
Speaker 1: big contract extension with the Suns, that's where in the

971
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,799
Speaker 1: later years of that deal, that's where you get all

972
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,399
Speaker 1: the movement. That's where he's on like, you know, three

973
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:24,719
Speaker 1: teams in three years, and where it gets kind of

974
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,680
Speaker 1: goofy down the stretch where a player is getting paid

975
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 1: way more than he's producing and it just turns into

976
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 1: like a bargaining chip type contract. Yeah, that's where it's

977
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 1: different than the NFL for sure, because you just don't

978
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,719
Speaker 1: get that type of guaranteed money, right like at the

979
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: end of a player's contract in the NFL. It's it's

980
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 1: just not like that it's front loaded.

981
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:51,319
Speaker 2: Can Chris Paul help a team win a championship?

982
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,279
Speaker 1: I mean it would have to be a star studded team.

983
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 1: At this point, he's just he's a role player. He's

984
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 1: not special, he's not close to dynamic. He's just. Yeah,

985
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 1: he's a guy that could get a couple of minutes,

986
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 1: you know, and uh you know, and he could be

987
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 1: in the rotation. But his body's betraying him.

988
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 2: He betrays it.

989
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, but for him especially, his body was betraying him

990
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 1: when he was younger. You know, it's just way worse now.

991
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:23,359
Speaker 1: I it would have to be a star studied roster

992
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 1: for him to be on a playoff, to be on

993
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,760
Speaker 1: a championship team. Man, they would have to be electric.

994
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 2: Really, Oh I have Oh we got one immediately, we

995
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 2: got a Looke Cornette signed with the Let's see, well

996
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,720
Speaker 2: all those were turning in the Celtics. Ah man, although

997
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 2: here we go, wait, we might have one Richard or

998
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 2: free agent and to sign a four year deal stay

999
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 2: with the Lakers, Max Christie.

1000
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,800
Speaker 1: See that's the thing with a movement.

1001
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 2: I watch a lot of Lakers basketball. Yeah, a four year,

1002
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 2: thirty two monar for Max Christie.

1003
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:00,120
Speaker 1: You're not a Max christ.

1004
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 2: Did he He must have been hurt in the postseason.

1005
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:06,040
Speaker 1: He got a little bit of playing time, you know,

1006
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 1: a little bit.

1007
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 2: I guess. Can he shoot the ball? We need the

1008
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:11,920
Speaker 2: Lakers people to shoot the basketball.

1009
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 1: Let so let's check out Max Christie's stat line over here.

1010
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,399
Speaker 1: All right, let's uh, let's be accurate on this one.

1011
00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:19,320
Speaker 1: So we got okay, here we go.

1012
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't play Algmans and Nuggets.

1013
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,439
Speaker 1: He played. He averaged fourteen minutes a night. He played

1014
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 1: actually sixty seven games during the season. But not not

1015
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: gaudy numbers. Jeff we averaged four point two points per

1016
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 1: game this past season. So you know, backup guy.

1017
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:41,840
Speaker 2: That feels like a nice good for him. Yeah, it's what.

1018
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,440
Speaker 1: He's twenty years old. He's twenty one now, twenty one

1019
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: years old, been in the league for two seasons. It's

1020
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 1: a nice little I mean, his.

1021
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:56,279
Speaker 2: His this year he played in zero playoffs. He played

1022
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 2: zero the five games.

1023
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 1: Well that's not it's not awesome right there, but uh still,

1024
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:06,319
Speaker 1: it gets thirty two mil with no playoff action.

1025
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 2: Not bad. I need to play basketball, Ryan to late.

1026
00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I need to stop betting Oakland A's games. That's

1027
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 1: the other thing. I need to stop doing Right after

1028
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,040
Speaker 1: I said that, they give up three runs in the

1029
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,759
Speaker 1: seventh inning, Jeff, not good. We're running we had right now.

1030
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 2: So we've had. You won the wager.

1031
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: We had.

1032
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 2: No one actually signed to a new team.

1033
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:30,839
Speaker 1: That not yet. Yeah, I need some people.

1034
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 2: All people were turning Kevin Hart's I mean Kevin Hart,

1035
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,839
Speaker 2: Kevin loves here, turning to the Heat. Harden's going back

1036
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:40,040
Speaker 2: to the Clippers, yep, Max Christie is signing a deal

1037
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:40,720
Speaker 2: to Lakers.

1038
00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, need someone on the move.

1039
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:50,799
Speaker 2: Alex Lenz going back to the Kings. Everybody's all these

1040
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 2: players are going back.

1041
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:55,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's not great right there.

1042
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 2: They also kind of word it a little bit different

1043
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 2: than in the NFL deals, where in the NFL it's

1044
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 2: an extension, and in the NBA it feels like they're

1045
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 2: saying that they're they're they're like re signing players. Does

1046
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 2: that make sense?

1047
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, it's just an extension. It's the same thing, but.

1048
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 2: They say the NFL makes it very clear like this

1049
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 2: is an extension, an extension, Right, it feels like there's

1050
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 2: a new here. It feels like they're they're they're labeling

1051
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:24,800
Speaker 2: a little differently.

1052
00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, in any event. You know, I need we're

1053
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 1: pro tampering on this show, right, So we wanted the

1054
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 1: deal within five minutes of free agency beginning.

1055
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 2: I'm surprised there's not more. I'm Malcolm, I'm quite quite

1056
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,959
Speaker 2: honest with you. I'm surprised there's not more. I missed

1057
00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 2: the days of Mark Cuban going to like DeAndre Jordan's

1058
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 2: house and camping on to find.

1059
00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 1: Maybe they're wiser now, Jeff, maybe they're like, you know what,

1060
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 1: let's wait fifteen minutes and then they won't suspect us

1061
00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,920
Speaker 1: of tampering here when we sign a guy from a

1062
00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:55,560
Speaker 1: different team.

1063
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 2: Klay Thompson plans to have discussions with the Mavericks, Lakers, Clippers,

1064
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:00,360
Speaker 2: and seventy six sirs.

1065
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 1: Okay, hmm, Mavericks. Let's write this down Mavericks, Mavericks, Lakers, Clippers.

1066
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 2: Yep, both LA and Silly.

1067
00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 1: Okay. What what's the ranking order? Who's closest to a championship?

1068
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:17,440
Speaker 4: Oh?

1069
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:17,880
Speaker 2: Dallas?

1070
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:22,960
Speaker 1: Okay, so Dallas number one, followed by either Lakers, Clippers

1071
00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 1: or Philly. I mean, I go Philly.

1072
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,520
Speaker 2: I guess who would you who would you have in

1073
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 2: the playoffs? Lebron or whatever? I mean I'd rather have.

1074
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,800
Speaker 2: If the Lakers are an Eastern conference, they make it

1075
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:37,600
Speaker 2: much deeper.

1076
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 1: Right, That's what I'm saying. I like Philly in the

1077
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,040
Speaker 1: East more than the Lakers in the West.

1078
00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 2: Sure, I mean the Lakers are I'll tell you what, Man,

1079
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 2: the draft pick, the kid from Tennessee, he is exactly

1080
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:51,480
Speaker 2: what they need. Like I think, get a middle of

1081
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:56,239
Speaker 2: exemption player. Lebron's healthy, a D's healthy, the middle of

1082
00:54:56,400 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 2: exemption plus the draft pick. It's a It's not a

1083
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 2: bad five, it's not bad, but.

1084
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 1: Freaking loaded. Man, the West, it really is all right.

1085

1097
00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1098
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 8: See it being that I'm a vegetarian, so I really

1099
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 8: won't have any meat. But it also depends guys, what

1100
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 8: I have in front of me in terms of work, Like,

1101
00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:07,279
Speaker 8: for instance, I wanted to see the craziness of the

1102
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,759
Speaker 8: NBA Trade dayline. So I mean, it's just to be

1103
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 8: the opening of free agency. So I said to my

1104
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 8: wife is like, hey, I gotta be ready at six o'clock.

1105
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,840
Speaker 8: I want to see this. I'm just amazed at you

1106
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,280
Speaker 8: know what goes on with that. It's it's really different

1107
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:20,239
Speaker 8: than the NFL. And you know for a variety of

1108
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:22,399
Speaker 8: reads we could talk about. But in terms of food, yeah,

1109
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:28,319
Speaker 8: no meat. I'm a big salmon guy, big pasta guy,

1110
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 8: but again no meat.

1111
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:31,799
Speaker 1: I had no idea you're a vegetarian.

1112
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:33,359
Speaker 2: I have talked to the years. As matter of fact,

1113
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 2: I was mentioned this before and then we talked to

1114
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:37,920
Speaker 2: him about something with like with throughout the fourth of

1115
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:40,280
Speaker 2: July and He's like, no meat for me. I was surprised.

1116
00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:42,080
Speaker 2: But you lost a bunch of weight this way, right.

1117
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, so I'm down like forty five since the pandemic started.

1118
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,799
Speaker 8: Started playing tennis, Say, I got up to two fifty Jeff,

1119
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 8: and I was like, this is just gross. At my age,

1120
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 8: this is not guy.

1121
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't like a football player like yourself who could

1122
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 1: probably hold the weight. So I was like, I got

1123
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 1: to get in shape.

1124
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,319
Speaker 8: And uh, yeah, I'm down about two weight two ten

1125
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:01,000
Speaker 8: something like that, and another ten pounds would be good.

1126
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:04,759
Speaker 1: But as we get older, man, you really feel it.

1127
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,880
Speaker 8: And I've learned that you don't really hold up physically

1128
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,120
Speaker 8: well if you don't, if you, if you, if you

1129
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,839
Speaker 8: can't make it easier on your bones, are.

1130
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 2: You gonna are we gonna hear? As training camp approaches

1131
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 2: the next couple of weeks, Adam kaplan best shape of

1132
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 2: his life story? Oh oh yeah that or you know.

1133
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 8: By the way, like be Ben Simmons, you know, you

1134
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:29,320
Speaker 8: see the videos of the guys in the off season.

1135
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: Like it was funny, Jeff.

1136
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if you did.

1137
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:32,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if you did this, but when you

1138
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:34,000
Speaker 1: were playing, but you.

1139
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,520
Speaker 8: Notice like the quarterback will have his teammates out there

1140
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,200
Speaker 8: where he lives and they'll throw the ball and fans

1141
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 8: go out of their minds sticking like this is some

1142
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 8: kind of impact. I've talked to coaches about it. They go,

1143
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 8: you know what, it's better than not doing anything, But

1144
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 8: they say it don't. They generally say it's very little impact.

1145
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:53,439
Speaker 2: I have a hard take on this, Adam. Where our

1146
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:56,040
Speaker 2: job is to make sure that we can play football,

1147
00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 2: that basically means taking care of our bodies. I don't

1148
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,600
Speaker 2: think it's anything cool that we work out, like it's

1149
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 2: our literal job, like to just work out two days,

1150
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 2: two hours a day, do some rehab, and just don't

1151
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 2: eat terribly so you're not fat and out of shape

1152
00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 2: and bloating, you know, Like it's like that to me

1153
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:15,480
Speaker 2: is not rising grind to work out, Like what like

1154
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:17,920
Speaker 2: what people have real jobs where they're like it's nine

1155
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 2: to five jobs. I think it's so funny to know,

1156
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,720
Speaker 2: I get fans eat up and stuff. But I've never

1157
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,560
Speaker 2: been impressed when athletes post workout videos. That's that's our

1158
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 2: our job is.

1159
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 8: It should be doing that right in all sports, by

1160
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 8: the way, not just NBA or NFL. I mean what

1161
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:32,960
Speaker 8: I mean, what are you doing?

1162
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: So?

1163
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I now, But I will tell you when

1164
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 8: I first started covering the league in two thousand from

1165
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,479
Speaker 8: a full time basis, players are still coming to training

1166
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 8: camp to get in shape. Now that would change, but

1167
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 8: it was still happening because I know, talking to a

1168
00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:51,400
Speaker 8: lot of guys who play in the eighties and nineties,

1169
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,800
Speaker 8: you totally, oh, yeah, would come in in February, like

1170
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:58,959
Speaker 8: they can't. The offseason programs would start earlier February or March,

1171
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,880
Speaker 8: whereas we start now around middle of April. It's really

1172
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 8: it's really funny how that works. And you cannot no more,

1173
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,200
Speaker 8: no longer. Could you just come in and show up

1174
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 8: in April and not be in shape.

1175
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,840
Speaker 2: I h fault up on that. Like when I got

1176
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 2: an NFL we were in the middle of March. Was

1177
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 2: when we came back, right, so we was pre to

1178
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,000
Speaker 2: and yeah, we we came back. I used to stay

1179
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 2: in Charlotte to work out our Our strength coach was like, yeah,

1180
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:24,720
Speaker 2: like we're like just run a little bit lightlifting, like

1181
00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 2: we'll start in March. Like you don't have to show

1182
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 2: up in shape now. If you don't show up in shape,

1183
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:32,720
Speaker 2: you're looked at in negatively, right, like you didn't do

1184
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 2: the job in the off season. Adam if the nfl

1185
00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 2: PA NFL approved this new offseason, which I think is

1186
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 2: just atrocious planning by the players. Does this help the game?

1187
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 2: I know players want to win quote unquote win. I

1188
00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:51,560
Speaker 2: think it's a terrible idea. I don't think players agree

1189
00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 2: with that. I don't think the report is accurate. What's

1190
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 2: your take on this report a couple of weeks ago

1191
00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 2: that the nfl PA and NFL might modify the off

1192
00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:58,680
Speaker 2: seasons the program right.

1193
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 8: By the way, the report from NFL Network, it's that

1194
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 8: the NFLPA is going to submit this proposal.

1195
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:05,920
Speaker 1: Like as you know Jeff in the eleven CBA.

1196
01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 8: This is when this all started, when players made it

1197
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:12,800
Speaker 8: clear they don't want the coaches to work them in

1198
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 8: January and February, March, April. They gotta wait now if

1199
01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 8: we don't have Junota. See here's there are a couple

1200
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:22,440
Speaker 8: things which we didn't talk about the last time we

1201
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 8: talked about this on FSR. First of all, I get

1202
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 8: if you don't have OTAs, you got to figure out

1203
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:31,439
Speaker 8: what the workout bonus is going to be like, because

1204
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 8: a lot of veterans have workoup bonuses, and some, by

1205
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:36,280
Speaker 8: the way, aren't like an a grand Some are like

1206
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 8: a million, two million, three million. That stuff means something.

1207
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 8: I'm interested to see how that would work. But if

1208
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,520
Speaker 8: this passes, there's no off season, you show up in July.

1209
01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,840
Speaker 8: Now that what I understand is also i'd looked into this,

1210
01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 8: there still would be a five day acclamation period.

1211
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 2: So here's what that means.

1212
01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 8: The NFL and their health and safety people found that

1213
01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 8: a lot of the soft tissue stuff happens very early

1214
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,680
Speaker 8: in training camp because if you're if you haven't done

1215
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 8: much or you've been away for six to seven weeks,

1216
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 8: and you start ramping it up immediately, it's hard for

1217
01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 8: your body to adjust. So they found if you wait

1218
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,480
Speaker 8: five days and are very light in training camp, they're

1219
01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:20,479
Speaker 8: less strains. The data that they've shown me completely backs

1220
01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:23,640
Speaker 8: us up that would have to happen. If this ever passes,

1221
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 8: you still have to have that. So you're looking at

1222
01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:28,000
Speaker 8: maybe possibly Jeff. You know, if you want to know

1223
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,280
Speaker 8: who's going to be winning jobs and so forth, it's

1224
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 8: still going to be mid July and you won't know.

1225
01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:37,000
Speaker 8: We talked about this last time on FSR. We discuss

1226
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:41,320
Speaker 8: this situation if they don't have access to the players

1227
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,760
Speaker 8: in February March April and May if you don't have

1228
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,560
Speaker 8: to show up and June. By the way, you have

1229
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 8: no idea what kind of shift these guys are in.

1230
01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 1: He's Adam Kaplan FSR NFL insider here on Fox Sports Radio.

1231
01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:58,680
Speaker 1: Who do you think gets a contract extension first cap?

1232
01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 1: Would you go to a tongue of Iiloa or would

1233
01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:04,040
Speaker 1: you go with Brandon ny Yuk with the Niners or

1234
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: somebody else there with Ayuk?

1235
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 8: It's kind of interesting. So the Niners they won him back.

1236
01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 8: I mean, he's under contract, he's on a fifth year option.

1237
01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 8: The problem is at Sea they were unable to get

1238
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:19,480
Speaker 8: this deal done in March, and then aj Brown got

1239
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 8: thirty two million a year. That didn't help, and Ceedee

1240
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 8: Lamb is going to get his should be get done

1241
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 8: before training camp justin Jefferson gets you know, thirty five

1242
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:30,480
Speaker 8: plus a year. That's actually like defensive end money, edge

1243
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 8: rusher money. And the Niners that see, My understanding is this,

1244
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:36,760
Speaker 8: it's not that they don't want to extend. They think

1245
01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 8: he's a great player, it's he'll never be able to

1246
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:43,400
Speaker 8: put up a hundred catches the season, one hundred and

1247
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 8: ten because of Deebo Samuel, because of George Kittle because

1248
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,320
Speaker 8: of Christian McCaffery. Oh, by the way, they just paid

1249
01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 8: Juwan Jennings their third receiver. Oh, by the way, they

1250
01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 8: just drafted receiver in the first round. That surprised a

1251
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:57,440
Speaker 8: lot of people. Ricky Piersoll, they can't justify giving them

1252
01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 8: thirty two plus million a year.

1253
01:02:58,640 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 1: They're not there yet.

1254
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:00,880
Speaker 2: I I get that. Now.

1255
01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:03,320
Speaker 8: I'll tell you what if Brandon Ayuk is with the Bills.

1256
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 8: He's catching and hundred and ten past this season, but

1257
01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:07,840
Speaker 8: right now they don't want to trade him.

1258
01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 2: There's reports that the Dolphins want to give to a

1259
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,040
Speaker 2: tongue of I Low a fair market deal. Well, the

1260
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,800
Speaker 2: fair market deal is just the next deal. Is this

1261
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:21,840
Speaker 2: a sign that Dolphins are not totally sold on paying

1262
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:24,760
Speaker 2: to the next deal, right, the next deal after what

1263
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,240
Speaker 2: you know what Trevor Lawrence got from Jacksonville.

1264
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, but I would also tell you I don't think

1265
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 8: there were Jared goff Is yet. Jared Goff got a

1266
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 8: very good extension. Fact, his mega deal with the Rams

1267
01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 8: was kind of historic, by the way, in structure, and

1268
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:40,600
Speaker 8: if you look at this one fifty three million a year,

1269
01:03:40,640 --> 01:03:44,160
Speaker 8: I don't get the feeling I get is they'd like

1270
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 8: to be around around where Jalen Hurts is fifty one

1271
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,680
Speaker 8: million a year. The guarantee structure is very team friendly.

1272
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:54,160
Speaker 8: Of course, it depends how the player plays. But you know,

1273
01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:56,840
Speaker 8: on the surface, the Eagles felt they did well with

1274
01:03:56,960 --> 01:04:00,480
Speaker 8: that with that Jalen Hurts extension. They're not there yet,

1275
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 8: but Jeff, as you know as a former player, teams

1276
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:05,920
Speaker 8: will not show their hand for the most part on

1277
01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 8: the mega mega deals where you see all the other

1278
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:11,760
Speaker 8: deals out there that are done until there's a deadline.

1279
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:13,840
Speaker 8: Well the deadline. Obviously they won't come out and say it,

1280
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:16,280
Speaker 8: but we know it is start a training camp. It's not,

1281
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 8: by the way, when the players report, it's the first

1282
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 8: day of practice. That's the way the contracting coacheators want

1283
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,960
Speaker 8: look at it, and so do coaches and front offs

1284
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 8: people general managers.

1285
01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 1: So the two of one look again. He's also in

1286
01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 1: his fifth year option.

1287
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 8: He's playing for the Dolphins this season and for the

1288
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:35,080
Speaker 8: Dolphin fans who don't want them to extend him at

1289
01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:35,800
Speaker 8: past the season.

1290
01:04:36,280 --> 01:04:40,680
Speaker 1: I always ask you this question, what's your recourse? Who

1291
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:41,360
Speaker 1: else is out there?

1292
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,919
Speaker 8: Well, there's no one else out there now the Dak

1293
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:47,120
Speaker 8: Prescott deal because the Cowboys have waited. It's going to

1294
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,400
Speaker 8: surpass my number fifty seven million. It could be fifty

1295
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:52,360
Speaker 8: seven to sixty million, folks, if for some reason the

1296
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:54,640
Speaker 8: Cowboys cave and get this deal done.

1297
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,200
Speaker 1: I'm curious what you thought about the NFL having to

1298
01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:02,800
Speaker 1: pay back four point seven dollars in the Sunday ticket case.

1299
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:04,480
Speaker 1: What's your reaction to all that?

1300
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, so really, what this is is this actually started

1301
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:11,240
Speaker 8: nine ten years ago for the class action suit. So

1302
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:16,320
Speaker 8: it's behalf of bars, establishments, restaurants, and fans.

1303
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:17,600
Speaker 2: See.

1304
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:21,160
Speaker 8: First of all, from a fan standpoint, you'd rather just

1305
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 8: al Carter. Why do you have to if you're an out,

1306
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,080
Speaker 8: If you're a fan that's out of town, right, if

1307
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 8: you're from Pittsburgh but you live in Los Angeles, you

1308
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 8: only want to you only want to see the Steelers.

1309
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 8: You don't want every game. You don't want all sixteen games,

1310
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:36,280
Speaker 8: or you know you with the National TV games, you're

1311
01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:38,440
Speaker 8: you're you're looking more like thirteen or twelve games. But

1312
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,360
Speaker 8: you don't want to pay for the whole package. You

1313
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:42,800
Speaker 8: want to spend three fifty to four hundred. You'd rather

1314
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 8: just pay each week. Let's say it's ten dollars a game,

1315
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 8: right per week.

1316
01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 1: That's what you want.

1317
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:50,560
Speaker 8: And plus, if you're a Steelers friend, you know they're

1318
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:54,120
Speaker 8: gonna be a national TV and this is just not

1319
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:57,400
Speaker 8: And by the way, it's not just four point seven billion.

1320
01:05:57,720 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 8: With anti trust, you're looking at more than double that,

1321
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 8: more than double that. So this is going to cost

1322
01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:07,560
Speaker 8: the league. I know they're gonna I know they're appealing appeals.

1323
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 8: By the way, it could be months, if not years.

1324
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:12,560
Speaker 8: And by the way, you could also sign up if

1325
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 8: you want to get part of the class action. I've

1326
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:15,600
Speaker 8: been part of a couple of class actions over the

1327
01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:18,080
Speaker 8: years of like the fifty that I've gotten, you know,

1328
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:21,160
Speaker 8: with with products and appliances and so forth. I trant

1329
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 8: to just throw them out of a couple, I actually

1330
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:26,600
Speaker 8: fill out the stuff. You might you might get fifty

1331
01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:28,320
Speaker 8: seventy five hundred bucks. I mean you have to have

1332
01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:30,400
Speaker 8: you have to have documentation though, which is what I

1333
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 8: learned the hard way.

1334
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:33,600
Speaker 2: Have I suddenly I think since two thousand and eight,

1335
01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:34,640
Speaker 2: so I probably.

1336
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:35,200
Speaker 3: I just love it.

1337
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:37,919
Speaker 1: But still the problem is I didn't want the dish,

1338
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:38,960
Speaker 1: and that was the other thing.

1339
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:40,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I still have it now. I mean I'm

1340
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,720
Speaker 2: a huge fan of it, and I understand that people

1341
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:46,560
Speaker 2: might just want to walk to their team. That's it

1342
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,320
Speaker 2: out of market and no one else. And so I'm curious,

1343
01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:52,880
Speaker 2: you know, to see if the NFL adjustice. I wonder

1344
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:54,560
Speaker 2: if that And also to the last part of this

1345
01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:59,080
Speaker 2: too is if this deal gets adjusted, that affects a

1346
01:06:59,120 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 2: salary cap, right, because the revenue from a TV deal

1347
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:03,920
Speaker 2: would have to be adjusted.

1348
01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 8: For Well, the this this the abdruction V deals not

1349
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:12,160
Speaker 8: but the networks is so it's they're they're they're a

1350
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:12,800
Speaker 8: little different.

1351
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:18,800
Speaker 1: But this thing, I'm fascinated to see what the league does.

1352
01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,120
Speaker 8: Let's say they want to pay up four point seven

1353
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 8: billion and that's what they had number it stays there

1354
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,520
Speaker 8: and they pay that over series of years, how are

1355
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 8: they going to make that money up? You know, And

1356
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 8: I know, it's amazing. They could sell just about anything.

1357
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 8: It's pretty remarkable how they make money. But that's that's

1358
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 8: a pretty big it's a pretty big chunk, and it

1359
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:37,320
Speaker 8: would be divided up for teams that they have to pay.

1360
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,120
Speaker 1: It's pretty interesting. You could buy a lot of salmon

1361
01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,920
Speaker 1: and a lot of pasta. With that. Yeah, I know,

1362
01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 1: I know, a lifetime supply, but hey, man. Always good

1363
01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 1: catching up with the cap. I'll have a good evening man.

1364
01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 2: Oh god, thank you.

1365
01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:55,040

01:08:03,960 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 5: Max Christie signed four year, thirty two million dollar deal

1371
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 5: stay with the Lakers.

Speaker 6: We'll see if he can get on the floor more.

1373
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:12,840

Speaker 5: Bay Area. The Warriors wave point guard Chris Paul he

1378
01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:27,320
Speaker 5: had thirty million dollars guaranteed due today if he had

1379
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:30,400

Speaker 5: Brothers by You know, we'll see if it actually happened

1383
01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 5: when it happens, but they looks like Clay Thompson and

1384
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:43,559
Speaker 5: Steph Curry that partnership will be broken up.

1385
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:45,680
Speaker 6: Kevin Love returning to the Heat on a two year,

1386

1394
01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:14,639
Speaker 5: to one. Baseball's wrapped, just wrapped up there. The Athletics lost,

1395
01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:17,559
Speaker 5: unfortunately to the Diamondbacks four to one. Sorry about your

1396
01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 5: bet there, Brian, still on the range today. I guess

1397
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:23,040
Speaker 5: that's why they were minus two twenty five.

1398
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:27,639
Speaker 1: But as soon as you like, all right, I'm going

1399
01:09:27,680 --> 01:09:30,679
Speaker 1: with minus two twenty five. It's almost a sure thing. Nope,

1400
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,840
Speaker 1: underdog time, baby, you know. So it always keeps you guessing.

1401
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:36,240
Speaker 5: Like you said, if you want to have a miserable day,

1402
01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:39,360

Speaker 6: Jeff and Brian back to you guys.

1421
01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:33,120
Speaker 1: Thanks Martin. It is Fox Sports Radio here. Jeff Schwartz,

1422
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:35,640
Speaker 1: Brian know with you that is pretty wild what we

1423
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: were talking about with Cap right there, This class action

1424
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:43,679
Speaker 1: lossuit and the NFL ordered to pay four point seven

1425
01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:48,760
Speaker 1: billion dollars in this Sunday Ticket anti trust suit. And

1426
01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:51,639
Speaker 1: that's the wild thing. Jeff is, like Capp said, they're

1427
01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:55,080
Speaker 1: appealing this, so who knows when they'd actually have to

1428
01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:59,639
Speaker 1: pay up. But this goes back to they just jacked

1429
01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 1: up the right. There was a proposal from ESPN that

1430
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:06,719
Speaker 1: would have lowered the cost of Sunday Ticket to seventy

1431
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:11,920
Speaker 1: dollars per year, and right now the current package costs

1432
01:11:12,120 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 1: three hundred and forty nine dollars annually, so it's basically

1433
01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:19,120
Speaker 1: five times the price it could be. It did, so

1434
01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:23,599
Speaker 1: the NFL got dinged for that, and they're gonna appeal

1435
01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:26,599
Speaker 1: and then reappeal and then reappeal the reappeal and who

1436
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 1: knows where this ends up, but it looks like they're

1437
01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:31,800
Speaker 1: gonna have to pay at some point because they have

1438
01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:33,560
Speaker 1: jacked up the price so much on this.

1439
01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:41,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. I've enjoyed some Night ticket for the years I've

1440
01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:45,000
Speaker 2: used it. I have it on on YouTube, you know

1441
01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:50,760
Speaker 2: TV now, But it is very expensive. Yeah, even this year.

1442
01:11:50,760 --> 01:11:52,479
Speaker 2: I mean it's like five hundred bucks if you include

1443
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,080
Speaker 2: you know, you want red Zone channel and all that stuff.

1444
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 2: Like it's expensive. I think obviously, you know, no one

1445
01:11:58,240 --> 01:11:59,680
Speaker 2: else been able to bid on. They just give it

1446
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:02,320
Speaker 2: a DirecTV and made it expensive. I understand, I do.

1447
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:05,479
Speaker 2: I watch all the football games for my job, but

1448
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:08,840
Speaker 2: just I enjoy watching football. But I understand if you're

1449
01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:11,080
Speaker 2: just a fan of the Chiefs, and that's a bad

1450
01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 2: example because the Chiefs games are always on TV. You're

1451
01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,200
Speaker 2: a fan, I hear of the Panthers in Carolina, could

1452
01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:18,400
Speaker 2: be okay. In Iowa. You're a Panthers fan and you

1453
01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 2: just want to watch Panthers games. There should be options

1454
01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:22,520
Speaker 2: to just buy Panthers.

1455
01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:26,439
Speaker 1: Games, right, I agree with that. I also like, you know,

1456
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 1: buying in bulk, because I would spend way more than

1457
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,600
Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty bucks annually if I had to

1458
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:36,360
Speaker 1: pay ten dollars every time I watched, you know, an

1459
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 1: out of market game. I'm trying to see all these games,

1460
01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:40,880
Speaker 1: you know, I want to see everybody.

1461
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 2: Well, me and you were different because we we we

1462
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:45,760
Speaker 2: would buy this package. Just hope you'll hope. Obviously it's

1463
01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:50,639
Speaker 2: less expensive. But like my parents, I was talking about

1464
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:54,599
Speaker 2: this the other day, Like my dad is a Niners fan,

1465
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,760
Speaker 2: and he were watching the Chiefs. Mostly he watches the

1466
01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 2: national games too, but he just wants every He's an

1467
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:02,519
Speaker 2: interest in the Chargers and Rams in Los Angeles. He's

1468
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,880
Speaker 2: wing for Niners in Chiefs. He would much rather pay

1469
01:13:06,520 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 2: just watch those two teams all year then pay for

1470
01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 2: the full Sunday ticket package.

1471
01:13:12,080 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 1: Yeah right, And if you had that option, that's cool,

1472
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:18,160
Speaker 1: that makes sense. I would just hope that if that

1473
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 1: option does exist, that the buying and bulk option also would.

1474
01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:24,400
Speaker 2: Exist, correct, because we look for me and.

1475
01:13:24,439 --> 01:13:28,000
Speaker 1: You, Yeah, because that would if it's like ten dollars

1476
01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:30,120
Speaker 1: for every game, I'd be like, oh gosh, it's going

1477
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:32,479
Speaker 1: to cost seven thousand dollars to watch NFL games.

1478
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 2: Impossible. I mean, how could you watch Witching Hour with

1479
01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:38,560
Speaker 2: eight Wedgers on the line the last fifteen minutes of

1480
01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:42,400
Speaker 2: the early games without having that eight bucks on direct tam?

1481
01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 1: Yeah right, you gotta have that going all right? Coming

1482
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:48,120
Speaker 1: up next, we get to it. There was a prediction

1483
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:53,360
Speaker 1: of the top ten scoring offenses this season, and Jeff

1484
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:54,479
Speaker 1: and I have to weigh in on this.

1485
01:13:54,800 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 3: Love.

1486
01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 1: It's the season of lists, you know, and it's never

1487
01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 1: I like what this guy said about number three. It's

1488
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:03,680
Speaker 1: what the hell is he thinking with number eight? You know,

1489
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:05,439
Speaker 1: that's the way we do it here, so we'll do

1490
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,720
Speaker 1: that right around the quarter. Yeah, it's more fun that way.

1491
01:14:07,880 --> 01:14:10,320
Speaker 1: He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Brian Know. We're live from the

1492
01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 1: Tireck dot Com studios here on Fox Sports Radio. It

1493
01:14:16,360 --> 01:14:19,519
Speaker 1: is Fox Sports Radio. He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Brian Know.

1494
01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:23,800
Speaker 1: So I ran across a column on NFL dot Com. Jeff,

1495
01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:29,400
Speaker 1: it's an NFL writer. I'm not I might butcher this

1496
01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:35,840
Speaker 1: guy's name, but it looks like Gennaro Felice possibly probably

1497
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,000
Speaker 1: a very nice guy. But he predicted what will be

1498
01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:44,320
Speaker 1: the top ten scoring offenses in the NFL this season. Okay,

1499
01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:48,720
Speaker 1: so I'll go through the top ten real fast. What

1500
01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:53,439
Speaker 1: he's predicting, so scoring offenses this season? Niners number one?

1501
01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:58,680
Speaker 1: Raise your hand if there's like instantaneous beef over here, Jeff, Right, okay,

1502
01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:03,640
Speaker 1: you're okay with the number one? Sure, Okay, all right?

1503
01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:04,519
Speaker 1: Chiefs two?

1504
01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:07,559
Speaker 2: The way we're three last year?

1505
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, who was.

1506
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 2: Last year?

1507
01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,640
Speaker 1: Okay? So first is yea within the realm of possibility,

1508
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:20,599
Speaker 1: So we go Niners one, followed by Chiefs, Lions, Rams,

1509
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 1: and Bengals would be the top five.

1510
01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:28,400
Speaker 2: Chiefs feel high, A little high, little high Okay, we're

1511
01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 2: not top ten last year, that's crazy. We top ten

1512
01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:33,320
Speaker 2: this year. But probably I would imagine they're better, but

1513
01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:33,720
Speaker 2: not two.

1514
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:38,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a fair assessment, right, because what did they

1515
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 1: pick up? They got the rookie Xavi you' worthy, but

1516
01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:46,200
Speaker 1: you know they didn't make a trade for Justin Jefferson.

1517
01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:52,400
Speaker 2: Someone like I really think that Rashie Rice is going

1518
01:15:52,479 --> 01:15:54,639
Speaker 2: to be suspended at some point this season. Travis Kelsey

1519
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:57,360
Speaker 2: is at the point now where it's a pitch count,

1520
01:15:57,439 --> 01:15:59,720
Speaker 2: you know, like it's just making sure that we get

1521
01:15:59,760 --> 01:16:03,000
Speaker 2: into the end of the season. And really the Chiefs,

1522
01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:05,760
Speaker 2: I don't remember the Patriots being this way. Certainly I

1523
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:08,040
Speaker 2: was playing during this time, but I don't remember the

1524
01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:14,000
Speaker 2: Patriots feeling quite as like, just get to the postseason

1525
01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:16,920
Speaker 2: and will win it all. Yeah, where because the Patriots

1526
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:22,160
Speaker 2: notoriously started slow in September, you know, they picked up

1527
01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:24,680
Speaker 2: steam and sort of got better by Thanksgiving, Right that

1528
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:27,080
Speaker 2: was the time they wanted to dial in. Because what

1529
01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:28,960
Speaker 2: the Chiefs did last year, man, it's just like just

1530
01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:30,800
Speaker 2: oh you do is get there? Just just get to

1531
01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:33,240
Speaker 2: the postseason. So two feels higher for them. I think

1532
01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 2: they're back in the top ten this year.

1533
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's fair. I think that all makes sense

1534
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:40,920
Speaker 1: to round it out six through ten again. Prediction of

1535
01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:46,719
Speaker 1: the top ten scoring offenses this season. Dolphins sixth, followed

1536
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:51,479
Speaker 1: by Packers, Bills, Texans, and Colts.

1537
01:16:52,080 --> 01:17:03,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I guess Rams or they were eight last year,

1538
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,800
Speaker 2: probably better. You know, Cooper cup healthier, right, Yeah, it's

1539
01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:09,799
Speaker 2: on jelling. The Bengals at five sort of the fuels

1540
01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 2: high after a down year last year, but obviously no

1541
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 2: Burrow last year, and when Burrow was cooking, they were scoring.

1542
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:19,679
Speaker 2: But okay, that makes sense, Miami six, that certainly fits. Well. Yeah,

1543
01:17:20,200 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 2: do you start having the beef at seven with the Packers.

1544
01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:26,600
Speaker 1: My beef is more so at eight and ten. I

1545
01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:28,360
Speaker 1: look at the Bills and the Colts.

1546
01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:32,720
Speaker 2: The Colts being up here is just is just fantasy land.

1547
01:17:32,880 --> 01:17:35,760
Speaker 2: Right now. We don't know anything about Richardson through a

1548
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:36,560
Speaker 2: whole season.

1549
01:17:36,600 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 1: That's right. Anthony Richardson my best guess what type of

1550
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:42,000
Speaker 1: season he's gonna have. I think it's gonna be up

1551
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:43,600
Speaker 1: and down. I think he's gonna be.

1552
01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:46,280
Speaker 2: This the first year playing yeah, right, game last year, right,

1553
01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 2: and he.

1554
01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:48,800
Speaker 1: Didn't play that much in college either. I think that

1555
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:52,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna have some games where he's gonna make some

1556
01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:56,400
Speaker 1: throws or some plays, and he's gonna have some performances

1557
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:59,120
Speaker 1: where you're like, what that was unbelievable, And then the

1558
01:17:59,240 --> 01:18:02,519
Speaker 1: next game he's gonna complete like nine of twenty two

1559
01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:04,840
Speaker 1: passes with two picks and a fumble, and you're like,

1560
01:18:04,920 --> 01:18:06,760
Speaker 1: what the hell was that. I think he's gonna have

1561
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:08,080
Speaker 1: that type of season.

1562
01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:11,080
Speaker 2: He should. I mean, I think he can have a

1563
01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:13,880
Speaker 2: chance to be really good, but last year he didn't

1564
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:15,559
Speaker 2: play a lot like he's basically have his work season

1565
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 2: all over again.

1566
01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. Right, That's why I think to have the If

1567
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 1: the Colts are a top ten scoring offense, I will

1568
01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:26,680
Speaker 1: be really impressed. But I don't think that's happening. I

1569
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:28,760
Speaker 1: also don't think the Bills are gonna be up there.

1570
01:18:29,360 --> 01:18:32,160
Speaker 1: Like Josh Allen is a special talent. We all know that,

1571
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 1: but he has one wide receiver returning who's caught a

1572
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:40,519
Speaker 1: pass from him. That one guy he's got, Khalil Shakir,

1573
01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:45,280
Speaker 1: and that's it. Nobody else. So when you lose to

1574
01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:48,680
Speaker 1: Von Diggs and I don't know that the offense is

1575
01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:50,720
Speaker 1: gonna be humming to the tune of a top ten

1576
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:53,360
Speaker 1: scoring offense, do you see that happening?

1577
01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 2: Probably, I don't know. It's tough to count Josh Allen. Allen,

1578
01:19:00,640 --> 01:19:04,120
Speaker 2: I'm just sort of looking at like total touchdowns here

1579
01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:10,920
Speaker 2: from last season, So like the Cults were total touchdowns,

1580
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:14,240
Speaker 2: this counts off of the defense. Colts were eleven. I mean, right,

1581
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:16,160
Speaker 2: I guess we might have been wrong about them. I mean,

1582
01:19:16,479 --> 01:19:18,360
Speaker 2: I think the Bills can be top ten in total

1583
01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:19,639
Speaker 2: off of the touchdowns scored.

1584
01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:24,800
Speaker 1: No, they could be. They drafted Keon Coleman from Florida State, Right,

1585
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:27,439
Speaker 1: so let's say he hits the ground running as a

1586
01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:30,240
Speaker 1: rookie wide receiver. It's happened before, could happened with Josh

1587
01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:32,080
Speaker 1: Allen the.

1588
01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:34,559
Speaker 2: Dolphin at sixty one total touchdowns last season, how many

1589
01:19:34,600 --> 01:19:35,960
Speaker 2: the Jets had do you think on offense?

1590
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:41,479
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, if they'd probably be in the thirties, twenty two,

1591
01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:47,120
Speaker 1: not even in the third. Wow, that's terrible. That's what

1592
01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:49,320
Speaker 1: happens when Aaron Rodgers plays four plays.

1593
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:54,200
Speaker 2: Yeah great, I am surprised that Jets on this list

1594
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 2: are fifteenth.

1595
01:19:56,360 --> 01:19:59,599
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, huh. I think they're gonna be a lot higher.

1596
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,800
Speaker 2: People around them. Yeah, I buy it, man.

1597
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:06,600
Speaker 1: I think that Aaron Rodgers with the real defense and

1598
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:10,559
Speaker 1: that offense. Man like Garrett Wilson is a really good

1599
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:14,479
Speaker 1: wide receiver, and then you match him up with you

1600
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,720
Speaker 1: got a couple of playmakers over there where you bring

1601
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:22,320
Speaker 1: in Mike Williams. I think Malachai Corley, he's Deebo Samuel Ish.

1602
01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:25,040
Speaker 1: I think that he could be a really interesting player

1603
01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:28,240
Speaker 1: with the Jets. And Tyler Conklin is a solid tight end.

1604
01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:32,560
Speaker 1: He's very underrated. Aaron we're talking Aaron Rodgers here. I

1605
01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:35,320
Speaker 1: think they're still gas in the tank. They're gonna be

1606
01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:37,920
Speaker 1: much better than last year, like Worlds have to be.

1607
01:20:38,720 --> 01:20:40,080
Speaker 2: The only the only thing I'll bring up is that

1608
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:41,960
Speaker 2: we have not seen a player at this age come

1609
01:20:42,040 --> 01:20:45,559
Speaker 2: back from this injury. And I'm just I think there's

1610
01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:47,200
Speaker 2: it's okay to have a little trepidation on how that

1611
01:20:47,320 --> 01:20:47,600
Speaker 2: might go.

1612
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:51,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, hey, that's fair, that's fair. I also look

1613
01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:53,479
Speaker 1: at the style of his game, you know, and I

1614
01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:57,759
Speaker 1: think his game translates to old pretty well. Hey, Jeff

1615
01:20:57,840 --> 01:21:00,720
Speaker 1: the ball buffet, it's not over yet. We still have

1616

1623
01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:33,519
Speaker 1: should be so Jeff. Just as Martin Wisse said right there,

1624
01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:38,200
Speaker 1: the Splash Brothers looks like they are no more. Klay

1625
01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:41,880
Speaker 1: Thompson is leaving the Warriors. Warriors trying to work out

1626
01:21:41,920 --> 01:21:46,559
Speaker 1: a sign and trade deal for Clay, and I'm curious

1627
01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:49,120
Speaker 1: how you feel about this. To me, I don't think

1628
01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:53,440
Speaker 1: nostalgia gets you anywhere, and I actually applaud the Warriors.

1629
01:21:53,800 --> 01:21:56,639
Speaker 1: The arrow was pointing down. They were in tenth place

1630
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,479
Speaker 1: in the West last season. They didn't even make the playoffs.

1631
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,719
Speaker 1: They got the Kings, So why would you bring back Clay?

1632
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:05,880
Speaker 1: As if what what's going to change? What's going to

1633
01:22:05,920 --> 01:22:08,080
Speaker 1: be better? We're keeping the band together and what we're

1634
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:10,200
Speaker 1: gonna get our teeth kicked in for most of the season.

1635
01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:13,200
Speaker 1: You got to change it up and be viable, be relevant.

1636
01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:16,439
Speaker 1: So to try to build around Steph Curry and go

1637
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:18,800
Speaker 1: in a different direction, I think that's the only way

1638
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:20,400
Speaker 1: you could approach this going forward.

1639
01:22:20,960 --> 01:22:23,439
Speaker 2: I'm surprised they didn't do it earlier. Quite honestly, I

1640
01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:26,240
Speaker 2: think after last year we made the case that him

1641
01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:28,720
Speaker 2: and Draymond it kind of kind of time to move on.

1642
01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:32,479
Speaker 2: But I appreciate them doing it better, better late than ever, right,

1643
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:34,640
Speaker 2: I mean, it had to be done. They had to

1644
01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:37,960
Speaker 2: move on. There was no really other way to approach

1645
01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,240
Speaker 2: next season in the years moving forward, because again, your

1646
01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:43,880
Speaker 2: job is to rebuild that team, and you have to

1647
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:46,599
Speaker 2: rebuild it around Curry, who is most capable right now

1648
01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:50,800
Speaker 2: of helping you win. And it makes no sense for

1649
01:22:50,840 --> 01:22:53,640
Speaker 2: them to want to do this. The best teams are adaptable, right,

1650
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:57,560
Speaker 2: the best teams are able to mold themselves and you know,

1651
01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:00,920
Speaker 2: be pliable, be flexible. And so I plowed the Warriors

1652
01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:03,679
Speaker 2: for doing this, But they also made it easy because

1653
01:23:03,720 --> 01:23:05,679
Speaker 2: Clay just isn't the same player anymore, and they weren't

1654
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:07,760
Speaker 2: a good team last season, and so you look at

1655
01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:09,960
Speaker 2: that in the mirror and think to yourself, Okay, what

1656
01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:11,400
Speaker 2: do we have to do next. I think it's even

1657
01:23:11,439 --> 01:23:14,320
Speaker 2: it's tougher if they were like the sixth place team

1658
01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:16,920
Speaker 2: in the West, you know, or you know, seventh place.

1659
01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:21,599
Speaker 2: They made the playing tournament, and you know, and got

1660
01:23:21,640 --> 01:23:23,639
Speaker 2: out in two games. Right, Like that to me feels

1661
01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:26,000
Speaker 2: a tougherness. They want to roll back, and just rolled

1662
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:29,200
Speaker 2: back with the same team. Finishing tenth makes this pretty easy, right, Brian, Like,

1663
01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:32,200
Speaker 2: it's over now. We've had our four championships, we've had

1664
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:34,840
Speaker 2: our winning, we've had our run, we've had this, you

1665
01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:37,599
Speaker 2: know this, this Hall of Fame do it together. It's

1666
01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:39,840
Speaker 2: now time to break it up and move a different direction.

1667
01:23:40,360 --> 01:23:43,759
Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, I just looked up Clay Thompson

1668
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:47,960
Speaker 1: on Pro Football Reference. That doesn't work out, right, You got.

1669
01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:50,599
Speaker 2: To go two years. It's it's always a ball buffet

1670
01:23:50,640 --> 01:23:53,360
Speaker 2: and your brain it's always ready for ball, right for football.

1671
01:23:55,680 --> 01:23:58,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's an interesting point that they hadn't done

1672
01:23:58,720 --> 01:23:59,559
Speaker 1: it earlier.

1673
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:02,200
Speaker 2: I thought they were gonna do it laughter last season. Yeah,

1674
01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:05,960
Speaker 2: I thought that was time. Everyone was older, you know,

1675
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:08,200
Speaker 2: the Draymond thing. I thought he was gone just because

1676
01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:10,400
Speaker 2: of well, I guess the judge him with with Jordan

1677
01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:12,599
Speaker 2: Pool in the end, right, So that makes a global

1678
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:14,920
Speaker 2: sense that I just thought it was sort of it

1679
01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:17,439
Speaker 2: was what happens with him now? Is he is he

1680
01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 2: staying or going? Yeah?

1681
01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:24,599
Speaker 1: He could be going as well. I'm not sure if

1682
01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:27,120
Speaker 1: he'll be back or not. But Clay on his way out.

1683
01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,280
Speaker 1: But I like that take because so they won the finals,

1684
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:33,840
Speaker 1: they beat Boston two seasons ago, right, so twenty two.

1685
01:24:34,240 --> 01:24:37,400
Speaker 1: Then last season they took a step back, right, they

1686
01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:42,000
Speaker 1: were forty four and thirty eighth. They lost to They

1687
01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:45,320
Speaker 1: lost them the semi finals in that season. I lost

1688
01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 1: the Dakers, right, I think they were last year.

1689
01:24:49,880 --> 01:24:51,680
Speaker 2: Oh it was the Lakers. Yeah, it t years ago. Yeah,

1690
01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:52,800
Speaker 2: I mean it was like two years ago.

1691
01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:55,880
Speaker 1: So yeah, like the era was pointed down heading into

1692
01:24:56,000 --> 01:24:59,200
Speaker 1: last season. I think two seasons ago that's when they

1693
01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 1: lost all those games on the road. Remember they couldn't

1694
01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:03,320
Speaker 1: win on the road at all.

1695
01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:05,559
Speaker 2: And they was talking about like chemistry being the reason why.

1696
01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 2: Right this, Yeah, the wasn't great.

1697
01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:10,800
Speaker 1: But that's a good point by you because I think, look,

1698
01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:14,200
Speaker 1: if this was a Patriot situation, they would have moved

1699
01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:17,439
Speaker 1: off of Klay Thompson heading into last season, not heading

1700
01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:17,800
Speaker 1: into this.

1701
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:20,320
Speaker 2: I mean they might have moved off him after the championship.

1702
01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:23,519
Speaker 1: They might have been right, if anybody were to do it,

1703
01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:27,639
Speaker 1: it might have been them, But certainly after two seasons ago,

1704
01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,280
Speaker 1: right where they lost all those road games, they would

1705
01:25:30,280 --> 01:25:32,599
Speaker 1: have moved off of them then, and now you see

1706
01:25:33,040 --> 01:25:35,400
Speaker 1: how the last season played out, you're in tenth place.

1707
01:25:35,880 --> 01:25:38,880
Speaker 1: You know, there's a reason why Bob Myers, the former GM,

1708
01:25:39,120 --> 01:25:41,000
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I'm gonna go do TV

1709
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,800
Speaker 1: like he knew what was going on there. Right, it

1710
01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:47,320
Speaker 1: was not a roster that with the arrow pointed up.

1711
01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 2: No, And you know that becomes sort of like the

1712
01:25:49,760 --> 01:25:52,639
Speaker 2: long build, right. I mean, I don't know, Steph Curry

1713
01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 2: Loan's not going to win HI any championships. I wonder

1714
01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:57,240
Speaker 2: at some point if Steph kind of back to the

1715
01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:01,120
Speaker 2: Chris Paul discussion where we've had the superstar players just

1716
01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:05,040
Speaker 2: decide to sort of string their careers out. Stuff. Doesn't

1717
01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:07,360
Speaker 2: feel like that guy. I mean, maybe one maybe one

1718
01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:10,439
Speaker 2: other team, you know, like, okay, I want to a

1719
01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:12,320
Speaker 2: winning team wants a trade for me, I'll give it

1720
01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:14,880
Speaker 2: one more go to win a championship. But it doesn't

1721
01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:16,519
Speaker 2: feel like Steph is going to stick around and play

1722
01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:20,599
Speaker 2: with three four five teams just to keep playing basketball. Yeah.

1723
01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:24,400
Speaker 1: I'm curious what happens with Steph because he's still playing

1724
01:26:24,439 --> 01:26:27,920
Speaker 1: at a really high level. He's not getting any younger,

1725
01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:30,679
Speaker 1: He's he's getting longer in the tooth right. He's thirty

1726
01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:33,320
Speaker 1: four years old right now, but he still has a

1727
01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:35,240
Speaker 1: couple more special seasons in him.

1728
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:36,760
Speaker 2: He can shoot, he could, he could do the PG

1729
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:38,800
Speaker 2: in Washington, main shoot threes.

1730
01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:42,040
Speaker 1: He really can stay viable for a long time. His

1731
01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:45,960
Speaker 1: game translates to old very well. He's not this dude

1732
01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:49,400
Speaker 1: that relies on sheer athleticism. He could just be a marksman.

1733
01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:52,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I'm thinking. I'm thinking that he

1734
01:26:52,200 --> 01:26:54,960
Speaker 2: should go with the mid level exemption of the Lakers.

1735
01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:57,439
Speaker 2: That makes the most sense to me, is that what

1736
01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:00,280
Speaker 2: that's the route right there that still has a a

1737
01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:02,280
Speaker 2: good you know, put him in, you know, put him

1738
01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:05,280
Speaker 2: in the corner, put him at the wing, let Lebron

1739
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:07,280
Speaker 2: do a lot of the damage. But then in the end,

1740
01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:09,360
Speaker 2: you know, like we got stuff there to put up,

1741
01:27:09,400 --> 01:27:11,280
Speaker 2: you know, twenty five to thirty at nights.

1742
01:27:11,800 --> 01:27:15,400
Speaker 1: I would love to hear the conversations if a couple

1743
01:27:15,439 --> 01:27:18,160
Speaker 1: of superstars did that. They're like, you know what, man,

1744
01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,080
Speaker 1: the hell with it. We've made so much money, Let's

1745
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:25,880
Speaker 1: just go super cheap with our contracts. You know, let's

1746
01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:29,360
Speaker 1: just align forces and win a title. I really wonder

1747
01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:31,360
Speaker 1: what the conversations would be like. If that, can we

1748
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:35,600
Speaker 1: just have that Kevin Durant, Well, yes, right, yeah, but

1749
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,840
Speaker 1: I'm talking about like Steph and Lebron, you know what

1750
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:41,960
Speaker 1: I mean, Like that type of thing. KD was different

1751
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:45,400
Speaker 1: because he was still getting paid. I'm talking about just

1752
01:27:45,640 --> 01:27:48,080
Speaker 1: taking a cheap, cheap deal.

1753
01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:52,160
Speaker 2: So like so like Steph, Lebron, yeah, Chris Paul, they

1754
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:54,560
Speaker 2: just all get together and like, yeah, just form this

1755
01:27:54,760 --> 01:27:55,959
Speaker 2: old super team.

1756
01:27:56,080 --> 01:27:59,040
Speaker 1: Right, yes, let's get the band together. We'll take all

1757
01:27:59,080 --> 01:28:01,639
Speaker 1: these deals on thee and let's just win a ring.

1758
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:07,640
Speaker 1: You're right, Like with Lebron specifically, the conversations would be

1759
01:28:07,880 --> 01:28:11,280
Speaker 1: pretty interesting. But if the dynamic was Lebron and Steph,

1760
01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:14,880
Speaker 1: Steph is more popular, He's not as polarizing. There aren't

1761
01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:18,080
Speaker 1: as many haters with Steph, not even close compared to Lebron.

1762
01:28:18,560 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 1: So if they they teamed up. I know this is

1763
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:23,840
Speaker 1: fantasy Ville type stuff, but I would love to hear

1764
01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:27,080
Speaker 1: those debates play out. It's not gonna happen, but no,

1765
01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:27,679
Speaker 1: it would.

1766
01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:31,479
Speaker 2: It would certainly hurt. I think Steph's legacy more than

1767
01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:35,000
Speaker 2: Lebron's in that sense, because we've ever had to talk

1768
01:28:35,040 --> 01:28:38,040
Speaker 2: about that with Steph. I mean, KD went went to

1769
01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:40,640
Speaker 2: him to win a championship. Yeah right, Steph didn't go

1770
01:28:40,800 --> 01:28:44,479
Speaker 2: to KD. And then with you know, with with Lebron,

1771
01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:47,439
Speaker 2: I mean he teamed up Miami and worked for for

1772
01:28:47,680 --> 01:28:49,559
Speaker 2: two titles, came back and won the one in Cleveland,

1773
01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:53,600
Speaker 2: and then obviously won the one in Los Angeles. It

1774
01:28:53,640 --> 01:28:57,320
Speaker 2: would certainly tarnish Steph's legacy more than Lebron did. They

1775
01:28:57,360 --> 01:28:59,000
Speaker 2: teamed up the ombook. This is obviously a pipe dream.

1776
01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:02,040
Speaker 2: I don't think's actually not right, but it would be.

1777
01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,200
Speaker 2: It would be interesting, right if Steph was like, you

1778
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:06,519
Speaker 2: know what, get rid of me too. I want to

1779
01:29:06,560 --> 01:29:08,640
Speaker 2: go somewhere to win last couple of years because the

1780
01:29:08,640 --> 01:29:10,160
Speaker 2: Warriors an't gonna win anything. Just that the Lakers are

1781
01:29:10,200 --> 01:29:11,599
Speaker 2: not close. The Warriors aren't close either.

1782
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:14,439
Speaker 1: You know what's weird to me, Jeff, is something that

1783
01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:18,680
Speaker 1: actually did play out where KD joined the Warriors, and

1784
01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:22,760
Speaker 1: we know how that worked out, where KD got vilified

1785
01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:25,760
Speaker 1: for that, and I get it right, he joined the

1786
01:29:25,880 --> 01:29:29,040
Speaker 1: Warriors who beat him in the playoffs this season prior,

1787
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:32,800
Speaker 1: and they had won seventy three games and it was

1788
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,400
Speaker 1: front running at its best. But the point is this,

1789
01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:41,560
Speaker 1: all of the negativity was with KD all of it.

1790
01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:45,080
Speaker 1: But there's something weird to me with say Steph Curry,

1791
01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:49,920
Speaker 1: where he's in the Hamptons and he's pitching KD, like, hey,

1792
01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:53,280
Speaker 1: come join our team, right, like you had the Hamptons

1793
01:29:53,360 --> 01:29:56,640
Speaker 1: five you had. I think you had both all like

1794
01:29:56,800 --> 01:29:59,839
Speaker 1: the Big Three you had play Steph, you had Draymond.

1795
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,400
Speaker 1: I think Iguadala was there to pitch KD. Whoever's there

1796
01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:07,080
Speaker 1: is the Hamptons five. They're pitching this guy no negativity.

1797
01:30:07,680 --> 01:30:10,280
Speaker 1: I find that to be weird, right, Like, you're right,

1798
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:14,200
Speaker 1: it's the player who joins the team is vilified. But

1799
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:16,960
Speaker 1: the players who are on the team, who have the

1800
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:22,120
Speaker 1: sales pitch, who have like the Excel spreadsheet presentation, come

1801
01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:26,400
Speaker 1: join us, no negativity whatsoever. I find that very strange.

1802
01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:29,120
Speaker 2: Well, they'd want already, right, so they didn't. They're not

1803
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:31,280
Speaker 2: getting the same negativity as the player they had it

1804
01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:34,040
Speaker 2: won already, and that they had just be Kevin Durant too, Right,

1805
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:34,840
Speaker 2: that's right.

1806
01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:37,760
Speaker 1: But it's like, if you guys are so bad and

1807
01:30:37,960 --> 01:30:42,240
Speaker 1: so good, why do you need to pitch a superstar

1808
01:30:42,439 --> 01:30:45,439
Speaker 1: to join you? Like, aren't you good enough on your

1809
01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:49,639
Speaker 1: own without k D? Why are you given the sales pitch.

1810
01:30:50,280 --> 01:30:52,200
Speaker 2: Well, they're not going to turn that down though. If

1811
01:30:52,240 --> 01:30:54,120
Speaker 2: he wants to go play with them, sure, But.

1812
01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:56,559
Speaker 1: There you understand what I'm saying. They're pitching him.

1813
01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:57,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1814
01:30:57,240 --> 01:30:59,680
Speaker 1: I just find that interesting with the player joining the

1815
01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:04,160
Speaker 1: team crushed villified, but the players already on the team

1816
01:31:04,439 --> 01:31:07,479
Speaker 1: that are pitching the superstar. Hey, joy, not us. We'd

1817
01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:09,920
Speaker 1: love to have you. No negativity whatsoever.

1818
01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:15,120
Speaker 2: Look, when Kevin Durant is at his Hall of Fame induction,

1819
01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:18,120
Speaker 2: no one's going to give a rip that he went

1820
01:31:18,240 --> 01:31:21,280
Speaker 2: to the Warriors and won championships. You like that. That's

1821
01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:25,280
Speaker 2: that's something that is a social media things. No one's

1822
01:31:25,320 --> 01:31:27,000
Speaker 2: gonna be up there and be like, oh, that guy

1823
01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:29,160
Speaker 2: not Hall of Famer, went to play with the Warriors.

1824
01:31:29,680 --> 01:31:29,880
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1825
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:31,639
Speaker 2: I mean, look, it doesn't in the end, it doesn't matter.

1826
01:31:32,080 --> 01:31:34,400
Speaker 2: It's a social media thing where we were we we

1827
01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:38,120
Speaker 2: attack him for that. I actually think that if I think,

1828
01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:40,160
Speaker 2: you know, Katie has certainly embraced this role now, but

1829
01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:42,000
Speaker 2: for a while, he was you know KD Berner, right,

1830
01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:44,280
Speaker 2: you going on on on social media with a burner account,

1831
01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:47,040
Speaker 2: and I think people that coupled with the idea that

1832
01:31:48,040 --> 01:31:50,040
Speaker 2: he was teaming up with the Warriors. Both those things

1833
01:31:50,080 --> 01:31:52,320
Speaker 2: played a role in the social media backlash. Again, we're

1834
01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:54,160
Speaker 2: talking about a lot of times what happened on social media,

1835
01:31:54,280 --> 01:31:58,600
Speaker 2: not what happened in like society. Right, If Kat was

1836
01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:00,560
Speaker 2: not doing the social media thing, I feel like we

1837
01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:03,080
Speaker 2: feel differently about him in that moment. I think that

1838
01:32:03,200 --> 01:32:07,519
Speaker 2: was all a part of the the reaction to what

1839
01:32:07,640 --> 01:32:08,559
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant did there.

1840
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:13,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting stuff, nevertheless, But no Chris Paul either. He

1841
01:32:13,920 --> 01:32:16,759
Speaker 1: was waived by the Warriors. He'll be an unrestricted free agent.

1842
01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:19,160
Speaker 2: That never made sense. I want to again, I don't.

1843
01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:22,799
Speaker 2: I don't know what Chris Paul, what value he brings

1844
01:32:22,840 --> 01:32:25,040
Speaker 2: to a championship team at the moment.

1845
01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:30,560
Speaker 1: It's certainly a lot of experience. If you've got like

1846
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:34,160
Speaker 1: a younger point guard something like that, maybe he's going

1847
01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:36,960
Speaker 1: to get some minutes out there, but his body's going

1848
01:32:37,040 --> 01:32:39,519
Speaker 1: to betray him at some point. I hate that because

1849
01:32:39,520 --> 01:32:42,680
Speaker 1: he is such a special player. But look, man, a

1850
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:46,120
Speaker 1: golf thing. This is not just the back nine, it's

1851
01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:47,040
Speaker 1: the next step of that.

1852
01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:49,160
Speaker 2: Where he is in his other time is undefeated.

1853
01:32:49,200 --> 01:32:53,000
Speaker 1: Buddy, that's it. But I like the point that you made.

1854
01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:57,560
Speaker 1: If you compare just those two players Chris Paul and

1855
01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:02,800
Speaker 1: Steph Curry just the way Steph's game is, right, Like,

1856
01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:05,519
Speaker 1: how long is he gonna last in the NBA if

1857
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:06,120
Speaker 1: he wants to.

1858
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:08,760
Speaker 2: Till forty if he wants to play until forty two,

1859
01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:11,240
Speaker 2: I mean, just he can again, Like we joked a

1860
01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:13,559
Speaker 2: lot during the playoffs because we were on PGA Washington

1861
01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:15,880
Speaker 2: a bunch for the for the MAVs. I mean, he

1862
01:33:16,240 --> 01:33:18,840
Speaker 2: literally just stood in the corner a lot of times,

1863
01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:21,200
Speaker 2: just made corner threes. Boston, by the way, to give

1864
01:33:21,240 --> 01:33:24,679
Speaker 2: him their credit, they took that away from the mass

1865
01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:26,559
Speaker 2: from most of that series, right, they had to move

1866
01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:29,439
Speaker 2: to the wings to shoot threes. Stephan just stand there

1867
01:33:29,439 --> 01:33:31,400
Speaker 2: in the corner for the rest of his career.

1868
01:33:32,439 --> 01:33:35,920
Speaker 1: We really could and just knock down Jays. Yeah, you know,

1869
01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:39,479
Speaker 1: I want to see what his supporting cast is gonna

1870
01:33:39,479 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 1: be with the Warriors this next season, because I give

1871
01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:45,639
Speaker 1: him credit, they're trying, but is it gonna be good

1872
01:33:45,800 --> 01:33:49,200
Speaker 1: enough where you're like, hey man, they could actually make

1873
01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:51,960
Speaker 1: some noise in the West. They're gonna have to do

1874
01:33:52,120 --> 01:33:53,880
Speaker 1: a lot to be able to do something like that.

1875
01:33:55,200 --> 01:33:59,520
Speaker 2: The Internet is telling me, Brian, there's some Russell Westbrooks

1876
01:33:59,760 --> 01:34:05,960
Speaker 2: and Nuggets connection happening possibly, which okay, sure, m.

1877
01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:11,000
Speaker 1: Eh. I mean, like, think about this, So you have

1878
01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:15,679
Speaker 1: Jamal Murray and Jokich. So Jamal is a very good shooter,

1879
01:34:16,560 --> 01:34:19,360
Speaker 1: and you would have Westbrook as you know, the guy

1880
01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:22,479
Speaker 1: off the bench, high energy. If he can attack the rim,

1881
01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:25,080
Speaker 1: he can do that, no problem. If you have him

1882
01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:27,679
Speaker 1: like with the Lakers, and you're gonna be a two guard,

1883
01:34:27,800 --> 01:34:30,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna need you to shoot threes. But that's not

1884
01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:34,360
Speaker 1: what he does at all. So could he fit in

1885
01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:37,519
Speaker 1: a little bit with those guys. Yeah, I could see

1886
01:34:37,600 --> 01:34:40,160
Speaker 1: him potentially fitting in with that. I just don't like

1887
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,160
Speaker 1: how Westbrook's reputation A lot of people make him sound

1888
01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:46,240
Speaker 1: like he's just the worst basketball player ever. It's no,

1889
01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:49,080
Speaker 1: he just has to have the right role. Yeah.

1890
01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:52,000
Speaker 2: It's also just I think nowadays we are so focused

1891
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:55,679
Speaker 2: on the three point shot that you know, we don't

1892
01:34:55,720 --> 01:34:58,160
Speaker 2: give credit for the energy and hustle he brings it.

1893
01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:01,120
Speaker 2: I think Westbrook has gotten a little bit of a

1894
01:35:01,160 --> 01:35:05,280
Speaker 2: bad teammate rap, but doesn't actually feel like that's the case. Right,

1895
01:35:05,320 --> 01:35:07,200
Speaker 2: didn't feel that way. I mean he doesn't. He didn't

1896
01:35:07,200 --> 01:35:11,760
Speaker 2: feel that way. So yeah, I'm curious where he goes

1897
01:35:12,120 --> 01:35:13,400
Speaker 2: look at this point in his career, and then the

1898
01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:15,640
Speaker 2: energy off the bench is can be hugely important to

1899
01:35:15,760 --> 01:35:18,320
Speaker 2: a champion ofcopy. He's also chasing the championship too, right,

1900
01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:19,840
Speaker 2: I don't think he's won a championship, so it's trying

1901
01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:22,519
Speaker 2: to find a place to give it himself a ring

1902
01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 2: down the stretch because I look at this point in

1903
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:26,720
Speaker 2: a lot of these guys' careers. Yeah, money is great

1904
01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:28,640
Speaker 2: in all and they signed for the money, but a

1905
01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:31,400
Speaker 2: lot of them signed for the chance to chase the ring.

1906
01:35:31,720 --> 01:35:33,080
Speaker 2: I never won a ring. I'd love to have won

1907
01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:35,840
Speaker 2: a ring. Man be awesome. So I think guys rightly

1908
01:35:35,880 --> 01:35:37,560
Speaker 2: make the decision to go chase that ring late in

1909
01:35:37,600 --> 01:35:38,000
Speaker 2: their career.

1910
01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:40,599
Speaker 1: I'd love to see him win one. For a guy

1911
01:35:40,640 --> 01:35:44,400
Speaker 1: who's been he had just criticized as much as he

1912
01:35:44,479 --> 01:35:45,679
Speaker 1: has throughout his career, I'd love.

1913
01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:48,120
Speaker 2: Especially if he was a helpful in winning the championship,

1914
01:35:48,200 --> 01:35:50,040
Speaker 2: right like being part of a championship winning team.

1915
01:35:50,360 --> 01:35:50,839
Speaker 1: Definitely.

1916
01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:55,439
Speaker 2: Did you see last week that the under twenty American

1917
01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:58,360
Speaker 2: football team lost to Japan by like three touchdowns?

1918
01:35:58,680 --> 01:35:59,560
Speaker 1: No? I didn't see that.

1919
01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:03,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, they lost it to uh to uh who they

1920
01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:05,479
Speaker 2: lose to to Austria, and we have a problem in

1921
01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:08,160
Speaker 2: our hands with our twenty under football team, American football team.

1922
01:36:08,160 --> 01:36:11,439
Speaker 2: What is happened? Why are we losing Austria and to Japan.

1923
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:15,200
Speaker 9: Who's on our under twenty football team doesn't matter, doesn't matter,

1924
01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:19,120
Speaker 9: that doesn't It's gonna be it. It's gonna be the

1925
01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:21,040
Speaker 9: dream team next year. We'renna have all the five star

1926
01:36:21,160 --> 01:36:22,800
Speaker 9: kids in high school gonna be on this team. So

1927
01:36:22,840 --> 01:36:24,200
Speaker 9: we don't get we don't care. Butt swooped.

1928
01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:27,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that'd be My first question is who the

1929
01:36:27,640 --> 01:36:30,320
Speaker 1: hell is on this team? You know, because it could

1930
01:36:30,400 --> 01:36:33,360
Speaker 1: be if like they'll put it this way in the Olympics,

1931
01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:37,080
Speaker 1: if this is our our Olympic basketball team, you know

1932
01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:38,920
Speaker 1: what I mean? And instead of having some of the

1933
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:43,120
Speaker 1: best players in the NBA, you have like some secondary

1934
01:36:43,200 --> 01:36:44,320
Speaker 1: players in college.

1935
01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:46,800
Speaker 2: Did this happen in nineteen ninety eight and nineteen eighty eight,

1936
01:36:46,840 --> 01:36:48,320
Speaker 2: It's why we got the dream team next time?

1937
01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:51,200
Speaker 1: That's right, That's what I'm saying. Right, if this is

1938
01:36:51,280 --> 01:36:54,439
Speaker 1: the equivalent of that, it's like, these are this like

1939
01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:58,920
Speaker 1: our fourth, fifth, sixth stringers compared to what it could be, Right, I.

1940
01:36:58,920 --> 01:37:00,920
Speaker 2: Still think we should It's one of us we should own.

1941
01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:02,679
Speaker 1: That sport like at all times.

1942
01:37:02,800 --> 01:37:06,240
Speaker 2: At all times, yeah, dominates. It's not like other leagues

1943
01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:08,360
Speaker 2: that have like you know, we like we have NBA, right,

1944
01:37:08,400 --> 01:37:11,720
Speaker 2: which is the number one pro basket league, but it's

1945
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:13,880
Speaker 2: not but Europe has like the second pro basketball league.

1946
01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:15,720
Speaker 2: It's not like there's like when we're get we get

1947
01:37:15,760 --> 01:37:18,880
Speaker 2: players from that league that do well the NBA. There's

1948
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:22,479
Speaker 2: not like a secondary football league in another country. Yeah, like, yeah,

1949
01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:26,280
Speaker 2: Japan's football, sure, I know, my buddy mine went to

1950
01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:28,880
Speaker 2: Germany to do some clinics, Like, yeah, they have football there.

1951
01:37:29,320 --> 01:37:32,040
Speaker 2: It's not like there's a second league in Europe that

1952
01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:34,160
Speaker 2: dominates and we get a bunch of players from there

1953
01:37:34,320 --> 01:37:36,960
Speaker 2: like NBA Europe. Not NBA Europe exactly. But you know,

1954
01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:39,880
Speaker 2: but you know, it's not like soccer right where our

1955
01:37:39,920 --> 01:37:42,920
Speaker 2: best players actually go to Europe to play most of

1956
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:46,360
Speaker 2: the year. There's there's no secondary league. So we're getting

1957
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:49,400
Speaker 2: our butts kicked by nations that don't even have like

1958
01:37:49,560 --> 01:37:50,559
Speaker 2: professional football.

1959
01:37:51,000 --> 01:37:53,599
Speaker 1: I just love that this is what you're ticked off about.

1960
01:37:54,240 --> 01:37:56,080
Speaker 1: This is beautiful right here. I need to see the

1961
01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:59,160
Speaker 1: under twenty under football team.

1962
01:37:59,479 --> 01:38:00,760
Speaker 2: I need to get to all twenty two of this,

1963
01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:02,719
Speaker 2: Please send it to me. Something we need to Diagno,

1964
01:38:02,720 --> 01:38:05,560
Speaker 2: it's what's happening right now with the under twenty with

1965
01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:06,479
Speaker 2: the under twenty team.

1966
01:38:06,920 --> 01:38:08,680
Speaker 1: Let me know, man, I need to know if the

1967
01:38:09,280 --> 01:38:12,720
Speaker 1: defensive tackle or the left guard needs to be replaced.

1968
01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:14,880
Speaker 2: I need to know all of them. I'm curious. It's

1969
01:38:14,880 --> 01:38:19,400
Speaker 2: probablyhigh school kids right under twenty football roster very.

1970
01:38:19,320 --> 01:38:22,560
Speaker 1: Well could be. Man, this is to me, it's like

1971
01:38:22,720 --> 01:38:25,320
Speaker 1: the the Pro Bowl the way it used to be,

1972
01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:28,640
Speaker 1: where it's like the alternate of the alternate of the

1973
01:38:28,720 --> 01:38:31,400
Speaker 1: alternate of the alternate. It's finally this guy said yes.

1974
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,280
Speaker 1: Finally he said yes, I will go play in the

1975
01:38:34,320 --> 01:38:35,920
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. You know. That's what I feel like. This

Speaker 1: under twenty team is.

1977
01:38:37,400 --> 01:38:42,479

1978
01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:48,160
Speaker 2: it doesn't really say whether or not. It doesn't say

1979
01:38:48,240 --> 01:38:48,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1980
01:38:49,360 --> 01:38:52,439
Speaker 1: I'm guessing it's not star studied. That's just going to

1981
01:38:52,920 --> 01:38:54,600
Speaker 1: go out there on a limb and say it's not

1982
01:38:54,720 --> 01:38:55,360
Speaker 1: a start study.

1983
01:38:55,479 --> 01:38:57,040
Speaker 2: Here's here's one of the lines. Kind of just read

1984

Speaker 2: you this very quickly. Yeah, the quarterback room features several

1985

1988
01:39:07,920 --> 01:39:11,639

1997
01:39:40,280 --> 01:39:42,120
Speaker 1: about the quality of this team here.

1998
01:39:42,680 --> 01:39:45,439
Speaker 2: It says here that the US national team boasts a

1999
01:39:45,479 --> 01:39:50,799
Speaker 2: wide selection of accomplished alumni, including Trevon Diggs, Toron Matthew,

01:40:03,040 --> 01:40:05,839
Speaker 1: Players okay in the past, yes, But is the quality

01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:07,559
Speaker 1: greatly down? Oh?

01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:09,240
Speaker 2: No, there's only thirty four kids on the team too.

2007
01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:10,920
Speaker 2: That's a small it's a small.

2008
01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:15,240
Speaker 1: This is gonna really we need to dig more on this,

2009
01:40:15,520 --> 01:40:17,040
Speaker 1: you know, you need to do some more digging on this.

2010
01:40:17,080 --> 01:40:18,679
Speaker 1: All right, we got a lot to do coming up next.

2011
01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:23,360
Speaker 1: Some interesting nicknames, and the ball buffet goes forward here

2012
01:40:23,479 --> 01:40:26,679
Speaker 1: Jeff and just about ten minutes, there is a team

2013
01:40:26,720 --> 01:40:30,120
Speaker 1: with a young quarterback. What type of success do you

2014
01:40:30,200 --> 01:40:34,000
Speaker 1: think the team will have that resembles other teams with

2015
01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:36,559
Speaker 1: other young quarterbacks. We'll lay that out for you as well.

Speaker 1: He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Brian No. Keep it locked right

2023
01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:06,639
Speaker 1: now and then. I was like, what kind of mood

2024
01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:10,200
Speaker 1: are you in? And she said she was feeling like

2025
01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:13,800
Speaker 1: kind of sappy love song ish. Oh okay, I'm like,

2026
01:41:13,960 --> 01:41:17,360
Speaker 1: we gotta go with Chris Isaac. Right, it's a freaking

2027
01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:18,559
Speaker 1: classic over here.

2028
01:41:18,680 --> 01:41:21,360
Speaker 2: I'm not like a death metal version of this.

2029
01:41:22,600 --> 01:41:24,400
Speaker 1: There might be somewhere.

2030
01:41:26,040 --> 01:41:27,639
Speaker 2: We had no death metal today. It's been nice.

2031
01:41:28,640 --> 01:41:32,840
Speaker 1: Well that's where i'd drawn back. Yeah, there you go. Good. Oh, no, good, Mary.

2032
01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:36,720
Speaker 1: We still have one more to go. When when possibility

2033
01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:38,920
Speaker 1: left here in the show. Hey, by the way, Jeff,

2034
01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:42,160
Speaker 1: we have our first deal of a player going to

2035
01:41:42,280 --> 01:41:47,840
Speaker 1: a different team. So this is Andre Drummond. Yeah, set

2036
01:41:47,880 --> 01:41:50,560
Speaker 1: to sign a two year, ten million dollars deal with

2037
01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:54,000
Speaker 1: the seventy six ers, so he'll be there with Joel Embiid.

2038
01:41:54,520 --> 01:41:59,120
Speaker 1: We got the Twin Towers again, right, Yeah, and being Drummond.

2039
01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:01,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was one of the best, you know, backup

2040
01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:06,240
Speaker 2: centers they've had. I think with embiid injury history, it's

2041
01:42:06,280 --> 01:42:08,680
Speaker 2: just smart to have someone that you can trust can

2042
01:42:08,720 --> 01:42:10,160
Speaker 2: put the ball in the basket a little bit right

2043
01:42:10,520 --> 01:42:11,920
Speaker 2: when it when it beats out, it makes sense.

2044
01:42:12,240 --> 01:42:16,560
Speaker 1: Yeah. Great rebounder, Yeah, great rebounder. Drumming Yeah, was with

2045
01:42:17,240 --> 01:42:18,960
Speaker 1: with my bulls last season.

2046
01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:23,599
Speaker 2: You know your bulls, guy, I love the Bulls. Love

2047
01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:24,040
Speaker 2: the Bulls.

2048
01:42:24,479 --> 01:42:27,680
Speaker 1: Still been still sticking true with them, you know, from

2049
01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:31,760
Speaker 1: the nineties bulls. Yeah, they've been freaking brutal lately, bad

2050
01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:35,120
Speaker 1: for a long time. But it took us about I

2051
01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:38,080
Speaker 1: don't know, I'd say about twenty six ish minutes when

2052
01:42:38,120 --> 01:42:42,040
Speaker 1: it was reported. It's unfortunate, but hey, man, it happens.

2053
01:42:43,160 --> 01:42:47,280
Speaker 1: So the Astros beat the Mets ten to five. Man,

2054
01:42:47,360 --> 01:42:50,400
Speaker 1: that's a killer for any under you know. Uh, these

2055
01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:55,960
Speaker 1: extra inning games, your your Dodgers and Giants game yesterday,

2056
01:42:56,280 --> 01:42:58,559
Speaker 1: jeff Right, it was seven to no. It was six

2057
01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,720
Speaker 1: to six heading into extra is. The final score was

2058
01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:05,040
Speaker 1: fourteen to seven. They scored nine runs just an extra

2059
01:43:05,120 --> 01:43:05,839
Speaker 1: innings alone.

2060
01:43:06,479 --> 01:43:08,160
Speaker 2: It does feel like a lot of runs can score

2061
01:43:08,160 --> 01:43:09,360
Speaker 2: an extra endings. I don't know if it's because the

2062
01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:11,840
Speaker 2: runner starts on second base. Probably not. I mean that

2063
01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:14,600
Speaker 2: to give you one run, obviously, but the point that

2064
01:43:14,720 --> 01:43:16,120
Speaker 2: was to make it go faster, and it doesn't seem

2065
01:43:16,120 --> 01:43:18,040
Speaker 2: like it goes any faster. Yeah.

2066
01:43:18,439 --> 01:43:20,240
Speaker 1: Every now and then you get a marathon game. What

2067
01:43:20,439 --> 01:43:23,479
Speaker 1: was the game I forget, I don't know if it was.

2068
01:43:25,160 --> 01:43:28,240
Speaker 1: It was today, It was the Rockies and the White

2069
01:43:28,320 --> 01:43:30,599
Speaker 1: Soxer But there was another one I can't remember, if

2070
01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:33,040
Speaker 1: it was like the Mariners and Twins or something. Some

2071
01:43:33,240 --> 01:43:37,599
Speaker 1: other game went really long. But I think that listen,

2072
01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:39,640
Speaker 1: I'm in the minority here, i'd be lying to you.

2073
01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:42,479
Speaker 1: I know, the baseball purists they hate the ghost runner

2074
01:43:42,520 --> 01:43:45,560
Speaker 1: on second base to start extra innings. I love it.

2075
01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:48,160
Speaker 1: I have no issue with it whatsoever. It's so much

2076
01:43:48,240 --> 01:43:51,280
Speaker 1: more entertaining to me. And it's just a regular season thing.

2077
01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:53,200
Speaker 1: They don't have it in the postseason.

2078
01:43:53,720 --> 01:43:57,439
Speaker 2: But well that's why it's okay, right, because it's just right.

2079
01:43:57,680 --> 01:44:00,280
Speaker 1: But I can't tell you how many times Jeff be

2080
01:44:00,320 --> 01:44:03,360
Speaker 1: a game that's tied to two going into the tenth

2081
01:44:03,400 --> 01:44:05,519
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh my gosh, it's gonna take him

2082
01:44:05,560 --> 01:44:07,600
Speaker 1: an hour and a half to score a run or

2083
01:44:07,840 --> 01:44:11,000
Speaker 1: finish this game. And when it first started, I'm like, oh,

2084
01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:13,639
Speaker 1: we got a runner in scoring position out of the gate.

2085
01:44:14,240 --> 01:44:16,479
Speaker 1: Like I'm in I'm watching this, so.

2086
01:44:18,400 --> 01:44:20,160
Speaker 2: There's more action. I think based on on a good

2087
01:44:20,280 --> 01:44:22,599
Speaker 2: job of bringing back and I know we talked earlier,

2088
01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:25,560
Speaker 2: joked about all the hits that don't happen, but just

2089
01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:31,080
Speaker 2: the general have brought back a little more speeded past

2090
01:44:31,200 --> 01:44:33,800
Speaker 2: the game, right, Yeah, with the pitch count and the

2091
01:44:33,920 --> 01:44:38,799
Speaker 2: mountain visits and the lack of of you know, pickoffs

2092
01:44:38,840 --> 01:44:40,320
Speaker 2: and things like that. Did a good job with that.

2093
01:44:40,760 --> 01:44:43,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, Okay, we got some nicknames. We got some

01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:02,799
Speaker 1: Jeff back to y'all, Thank you Martin, good stuff, Buddy,

2146
01:47:03,160 --> 01:47:05,200
Speaker 1: it is Jeff Schwartz. Brian know with you here on

2147
01:47:05,280 --> 01:47:08,080
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. So let me throw something at you

2148
01:47:08,200 --> 01:47:11,040
Speaker 1: in the world of ball. Okay, Jeff, So I was

2149
01:47:11,120 --> 01:47:15,200
Speaker 1: thinking about this with the Texans and c J. Stroud.

2150
01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:19,600
Speaker 1: He was fantastic last season. So I was thinking, the Texans,

2151
01:47:19,800 --> 01:47:24,400
Speaker 1: they've got a young quarterback. What is their success going

2152
01:47:24,479 --> 01:47:28,200
Speaker 1: to resemble as a team compared to a couple other

2153
01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:31,080
Speaker 1: teams that have had young quarterbacks hit the ground running

2154
01:47:31,080 --> 01:47:36,400
Speaker 1: as well. Okay, do you see the Texans having a Bengals,

2155
01:47:36,720 --> 01:47:41,679
Speaker 1: Chargers or Eagles type run here? Okay? With CJ Strett,

2156
01:47:41,680 --> 01:47:44,000
Speaker 1: Now think about this the Bengals. We won't go through

2157
01:47:44,040 --> 01:47:46,000
Speaker 1: all the records and all that because it's just gonna

2158
01:47:46,080 --> 01:47:48,479
Speaker 1: sound like woh wow, wow, wah wow after a while.

2159
01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:52,200
Speaker 1: But Burrow got hurt his rookie season, then boom Super

2160
01:47:52,200 --> 01:47:55,880
Speaker 1: Bowl appearance, AFC Title game loss, and then he was

2161
01:47:55,960 --> 01:48:00,720
Speaker 1: hurt again. So that's big team success similar to the Eagle. Right.

2162
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:04,320
Speaker 1: Hert's rookie season were a wild card team, then boom

2163
01:48:04,439 --> 01:48:07,960
Speaker 1: Super Bowl appearance, and then last year they tailed back

2164
01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:11,840
Speaker 1: off back in the wild card again. Justin Herbert, he's

2165
01:48:11,880 --> 01:48:15,439
Speaker 1: only made the playoffs one time and they were five

2166
01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:18,600
Speaker 1: and twelve last season as a squad. Yeah, So what

2167
01:48:18,720 --> 01:48:20,280
Speaker 1: do you think of the Texans. Do you think it's

2168
01:48:20,320 --> 01:48:24,360
Speaker 1: more Bengals, Eagles or Chargers in terms of team success

2169
01:48:24,439 --> 01:48:25,599
Speaker 1: with a young quarterback there?

2170
01:48:26,960 --> 01:48:28,560
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think they're being in Kansas City, so

2171
01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:30,960
Speaker 2: that sort of takes out the Bengals and Eagles route, right.

2172
01:48:30,960 --> 01:48:32,360
Speaker 2: But I don't think they're going to be like the Chargers.

2173
01:48:32,640 --> 01:48:35,200
Speaker 2: I think they're going to be a viable team to

2174
01:48:35,400 --> 01:48:38,280
Speaker 2: compete for the top of the AFC. But I don't

2175
01:48:38,320 --> 01:48:41,760
Speaker 2: think this season they're going into Kansas City, let's say,

2176
01:48:41,760 --> 01:48:43,160
Speaker 2: and being the Chiefs in the playoff game.

2177
01:48:43,680 --> 01:48:45,960
Speaker 1: No, that's fair. I think It's a little bit of

2178
01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:48,760
Speaker 1: an Arnold Palmer situation here, you know, kind of like

2179
01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:49,559
Speaker 1: half and half.

2180
01:48:49,840 --> 01:48:51,760
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I got that one.

2181
01:48:51,840 --> 01:48:52,479
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah.

2182
01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:56,000
Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna the ceiling. Isn't the Bengals

2183
01:48:56,520 --> 01:48:58,680
Speaker 1: right like reaching the Super Bowl? I don't see that

2184
01:48:58,760 --> 01:49:02,679
Speaker 1: happening this season. But I don't think it's the Chargers either.

2185
01:49:02,760 --> 01:49:05,280
Speaker 1: I don't think they're five and twelve. No.

2186
01:49:05,479 --> 01:49:09,240
Speaker 2: I think people are tatt him the Chargers. I understand

2187
01:49:10,479 --> 01:49:14,080
Speaker 2: what Jim Harbaugh is going to do to them, but

2188
01:49:14,479 --> 01:49:17,720
Speaker 2: their roster is just sort of not there yet, and

2189
01:49:18,080 --> 01:49:19,880
Speaker 2: the idea that they're going to come in right away

2190
01:49:19,920 --> 01:49:23,000
Speaker 2: and win nine, ten eleven games, I just don't see

2191
01:49:23,040 --> 01:49:23,799
Speaker 2: that in your.

2192
01:49:23,720 --> 01:49:27,280
Speaker 1: One I hear you. You know what's interesting is I

2193
01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:31,839
Speaker 1: feel like the evaluations of the Chargers and the Jets

2194
01:49:32,320 --> 01:49:36,320
Speaker 1: are flip flopped right Like, I feel like the common

2195
01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:40,120
Speaker 1: opinion is all Chargers, Jim Harball look out. I feel

2196
01:49:40,200 --> 01:49:43,320
Speaker 1: like that should be the opinion of the Jets right now.

2197
01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:47,080
Speaker 1: But the opinion of the Jets is like, you can't

2198
01:49:47,120 --> 01:49:49,880
Speaker 1: buy them. They were the trendy team hit heading into

2199
01:49:50,000 --> 01:49:52,120
Speaker 1: last season, and now it seems like most people have

2200
01:49:52,240 --> 01:49:55,160
Speaker 1: jumped off that bandwagon. I think the Jets could make

2201
01:49:55,280 --> 01:49:57,640
Speaker 1: real noise. I don't see that with the Chargers this

2202
01:49:57,800 --> 01:49:59,200
Speaker 1: season they lost a lot.

2203
01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:03,120
Speaker 2: Thing with the Jets is the same of the Chargers

2204
01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:06,479
Speaker 2: is you have the stigma as a franchise and you

2205
01:50:06,560 --> 01:50:11,160
Speaker 2: have to overcome and you need someone to kind of

2206
01:50:12,400 --> 01:50:16,240
Speaker 2: push that through the wall, break the wall down. And

2207
01:50:17,040 --> 01:50:19,519
Speaker 2: everyone knows Harbaugh and do that. He did it at Stanford,

2208
01:50:19,560 --> 01:50:21,280
Speaker 2: he did it at forty nine Ers, he did it

2209
01:50:21,320 --> 01:50:24,519
Speaker 2: in Michigan. Right now he's got a people Chargers. The

2210
01:50:24,600 --> 01:50:27,600
Speaker 2: thing with the Jets is we have just years and

2211
01:50:27,720 --> 01:50:29,920
Speaker 2: years and years now of the Jets just sort of

2212
01:50:30,240 --> 01:50:33,760
Speaker 2: fumbling and bubbling their way around a season. And I

2213
01:50:33,880 --> 01:50:36,479
Speaker 2: think a lot of us look at Robert Saloon. I

2214
01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:39,519
Speaker 2: think he's a good coach, not great. I think he's,

2215
01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:42,400
Speaker 2: you know, good defensive coordinator. But you have Nate Hackett,

2216
01:50:42,400 --> 01:50:45,320
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, God, like that's that's just that's not

2217
01:50:45,360 --> 01:50:47,160
Speaker 2: gonna be great off if that's your quarterback coming off

2218
01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:49,439
Speaker 2: an Achilles injury. And it's the Jets. They have the

2219
01:50:49,560 --> 01:50:54,680
Speaker 2: longest the four major professional sports drafts playoff droughts in

2220
01:50:55,200 --> 01:50:58,160
Speaker 2: all of the professional sports. So, like I a lot

2221
01:50:58,200 --> 01:50:59,960
Speaker 2: of just look at the Jets and think like, yeah,

2222
01:51:00,120 --> 01:51:02,120
Speaker 2: that's the Jets no matter what happens, and it's not

2223
01:51:02,160 --> 01:51:05,000
Speaker 2: gonna because we think it's gonna be. Where with Harbaugh

2224
01:51:05,760 --> 01:51:07,960
Speaker 2: we have a proven success that he can do this

2225
01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:11,840
Speaker 2: and change programs and change fortunes for players and individuals

2226
01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:13,759
Speaker 2: and franchise brogram. We don't have that with the Jets.

2227
01:51:14,479 --> 01:51:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, but the Chargers are exactly that. You know, like,

2228
01:51:20,240 --> 01:51:23,240
Speaker 1: is Harbaugh that reliable?

2229
01:51:23,320 --> 01:51:26,040
Speaker 2: And I get you said I don't think in year

2230
01:51:26,120 --> 01:51:28,320
Speaker 2: one he is, right, but I think he's had proven

2231
01:51:28,400 --> 01:51:28,960
Speaker 2: track record.

2232
01:51:29,040 --> 01:51:32,479
Speaker 1: Now, I mean yeah, but he took Stanford was bad, right.

2233
01:51:33,760 --> 01:51:35,600
Speaker 2: Do you remember they beat USC and.

2234
01:51:35,680 --> 01:51:40,920
Speaker 1: They were like forty one point dogs. It's insane and

2235
01:51:41,080 --> 01:51:42,160
Speaker 1: it literally is insane.

2236
01:51:42,160 --> 01:51:45,439
Speaker 2: I think that was seven we beat USC that year

2237
01:51:45,560 --> 01:51:48,720
Speaker 2: like at home, Like US wasn't invincible that year and

2238
01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:51,519
Speaker 2: Harball still beat him as a forty one on the

2239
01:51:51,600 --> 01:51:58,120
Speaker 2: road in Cosseum, So Michigan. Look, I think in the NFL,

2240
01:51:59,160 --> 01:52:03,680
Speaker 2: but a lot of college football, it's hard to overcome

2241
01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:08,360
Speaker 2: your past, right is more so college football. But I

2242
01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:12,920
Speaker 2: think that in NFL it's overcoming you're losing, Like the

2243
01:52:12,960 --> 01:52:15,679
Speaker 2: lot of n Dan Campson with the Lions. In college football,

2244
01:52:16,479 --> 01:52:18,920
Speaker 2: we have a lot of programs that talk about the past, right,

2245
01:52:19,160 --> 01:52:24,919
Speaker 2: Texas is one of them, So was Michigan, you know, USC, Washington.

2246
01:52:25,640 --> 01:52:28,680
Speaker 2: It's about what happened twenty thirty years ago. Yeah, and

2247
01:52:29,400 --> 01:52:32,280
Speaker 2: Harball broke through that at Michigan. It's hard to do.

2248
01:52:32,400 --> 01:52:34,280
Speaker 2: The reason why a lot of those schools, Nebraska is

2249
01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:37,360
Speaker 2: another one, just sort of can't break on through it again.

2250
01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:40,639
Speaker 2: And Harbaugh did that. So I give him the respect

2251
01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:43,960
Speaker 2: that he can take that term charging that we talk about,

2252
01:52:44,200 --> 01:52:45,960
Speaker 2: sure and turn it into a positive.

2253
01:52:46,360 --> 01:52:48,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hear you. I think that a couple of

2254
01:52:48,520 --> 01:52:52,040
Speaker 1: things with the Jets. You know, Nathaniel Hackett as the

2255
01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:55,400
Speaker 1: head coach with the Bank of the Broncos disastrous, but

2256
01:52:55,600 --> 01:52:58,519
Speaker 1: he was with the Packers for many years when Aaron

2257
01:52:58,640 --> 01:53:01,040
Speaker 1: Rodgers was still there and they had a lot of success.

2258
01:53:01,160 --> 01:53:03,760
Speaker 2: So he didn't call plays, I know, but I still

2259
01:53:03,800 --> 01:53:05,560
Speaker 2: think that anything, right, Like he didn't call plays in

2260
01:53:05,640 --> 01:53:06,840
Speaker 2: Kansas City. It's hard, like.

2261
01:53:07,200 --> 01:53:10,840
Speaker 1: True, true, But I still think that Rogers with a

2262
01:53:11,240 --> 01:53:13,800
Speaker 1: competent supporting cast, I still think that they can be

2263
01:53:14,320 --> 01:53:19,800
Speaker 1: a functioning, reliable offense and that defense is fantastic. And

2264
01:53:19,920 --> 01:53:22,560
Speaker 1: look at that division the arrow on the Bills is

2265
01:53:22,600 --> 01:53:24,960
Speaker 1: pointing downward. I'm not saying they're going to be a

2266
01:53:25,040 --> 01:53:28,000
Speaker 1: five to twelve nine playoff team, but they've taken a

2267
01:53:28,040 --> 01:53:30,439
Speaker 1: step back with the talent. They lost a lot of talent,

2268
01:53:31,160 --> 01:53:34,000
Speaker 1: and the Dolphins lost a lot of talent also, And

2269
01:53:34,080 --> 01:53:36,280
Speaker 1: so if you're looking at it from a Jets perspective,

2270
01:53:36,760 --> 01:53:39,799
Speaker 1: you're like, Bro, this division is there for the taking.

2271
01:53:40,439 --> 01:53:44,639
Speaker 1: It absolutely is, and they are flying completely not under

2272
01:53:44,680 --> 01:53:47,800
Speaker 1: the radar, They're not even on the radar. I swear

2273
01:53:48,040 --> 01:53:50,719
Speaker 1: they were the trendy team heading into last season. Rogers

2274
01:53:50,800 --> 01:53:54,320
Speaker 1: got hurt, their season sucked, and no one likes them

2275
01:53:54,439 --> 01:53:56,240
Speaker 1: going into this season. It seems like.

2276
01:53:57,760 --> 01:54:01,080
Speaker 2: Part of that is people don't want to get in Rogers. Yeah,

2277
01:54:01,160 --> 01:54:02,040
Speaker 2: that's that's why.

2278
01:54:04,280 --> 01:54:04,439
Speaker 1: You know.

2279
01:54:04,960 --> 01:54:09,719
Speaker 2: I thought his moved to miss mini camp that was lame.

2280
01:54:10,120 --> 01:54:12,639
Speaker 2: Does it matter for the success of their season?

2281
01:54:12,920 --> 01:54:15,120
Speaker 1: I don't think so. But it's because he made a

2282
01:54:15,200 --> 01:54:18,360
Speaker 1: statement back in January where he was like, everything we

2283
01:54:18,520 --> 01:54:22,760
Speaker 1: do matters, every single thing. This bs that. It's like, Bro,

2284
01:54:22,920 --> 01:54:25,519
Speaker 1: you can't make that statement and then miss. But you're right,

2285
01:54:25,640 --> 01:54:27,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, Brian.

2286
01:54:27,200 --> 01:54:29,040
Speaker 2: It's more about the principle of.

2287
01:54:29,080 --> 01:54:30,840
Speaker 1: What you just said, that's exactly right.

2288
01:54:30,920 --> 01:54:34,160
Speaker 2: Where we get one thing that Aaron Rodgers says and

2289
01:54:34,240 --> 01:54:35,160
Speaker 2: he does something else.

2290
01:54:35,360 --> 01:54:36,600
Speaker 1: That's right totally.

2291
01:54:36,720 --> 01:54:40,160
Speaker 2: And as a leader of that team, I know, I

2292
01:54:40,280 --> 01:54:42,240
Speaker 2: know the player said it doesn't matter, and it may

2293
01:54:42,320 --> 01:54:46,040
Speaker 2: not matter, but everyone else was there and you weren't.

2294
01:54:46,480 --> 01:54:46,840
Speaker 1: That's right.

2295
01:54:47,080 --> 01:54:49,080
Speaker 2: All thirty one of the quarterbacks were in their mandatory

2296
01:54:49,400 --> 01:54:52,640
Speaker 2: mini camp. You were not. And the pushback is, well,

2297
01:54:52,640 --> 01:54:55,320
Speaker 2: he was at the other stuff. Oh okay, he was.

2298
01:54:56,120 --> 01:54:58,000
Speaker 2: But like if you're a parent, you have a kid,

2299
01:54:58,840 --> 01:55:02,040
Speaker 2: and your kid has like one mandatory thing you have

2300
01:55:02,120 --> 01:55:05,720
Speaker 2: to show up for and you're everything else, but you're

2301
01:55:05,760 --> 01:55:09,120
Speaker 2: on a vacation for the mandatory one. Yeah, kid's gonna

2302
01:55:09,160 --> 01:55:11,560
Speaker 2: look at you a little differently, right, right, then show

2303
01:55:11,560 --> 01:55:14,680
Speaker 2: it to the mandatory thing. Yeah, the man the one thing.

2304
01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,440
Speaker 2: And people say, well, he scheduled his vacation eleven months out.

2305
01:55:18,440 --> 01:55:20,120
Speaker 2: I went back and looked. The mandatory mini camp is

2306
01:55:20,120 --> 01:55:22,120
Speaker 2: the same week every year. He's a twenty year veteran.

2307
01:55:22,160 --> 01:55:24,480
Speaker 2: He knows what a mini camp is, so he chose

2308
01:55:24,560 --> 01:55:26,880
Speaker 2: not to be a mini camp. But where the rest

2309
01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:29,040
Speaker 2: of his team was the except his son Riddick, right,

2310
01:55:29,960 --> 01:55:32,480
Speaker 2: and all other quarterbacks NFL were at their mini camps.

2311
01:55:32,480 --> 01:55:34,880
Speaker 2: They managed to make it. They managed a not double

2312
01:55:34,960 --> 01:55:38,360
Speaker 2: book manatory mini camp. So to me, that's just another

2313
01:55:38,600 --> 01:55:43,120
Speaker 2: continued pattern for him, but also for the for the franchise, right,

2314
01:55:43,160 --> 01:55:48,200
Speaker 2: who just can't seem to get those moments right. Then

2315
01:55:48,200 --> 01:55:50,760
Speaker 2: on top of that, they botched the whole messaging behind it.

2316
01:55:51,080 --> 01:55:54,040
Speaker 1: Well that was bad. When you know, Sala comes out

2317
01:55:54,080 --> 01:55:56,160
Speaker 1: and says it was unexcused that that's why.

2318
01:55:56,360 --> 01:56:00,520
Speaker 2: Well, it technically is the right they I'm him in

2319
01:56:00,640 --> 01:56:02,760
Speaker 2: that way, it's unexcused.

2320
01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:07,320
Speaker 1: But right, right, But why why frame it that way?

2321
01:56:07,400 --> 01:56:09,480
Speaker 1: I will just say this though, real real fast. Yeah,

2322
01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:12,360
Speaker 1: is I get everything that you're explaining with the Jets,

2323
01:56:12,880 --> 01:56:15,200
Speaker 1: but you look at what Rogers has to work with

2324
01:56:15,840 --> 01:56:18,760
Speaker 1: and you compare that to what Herbert doesn't have to

2325
01:56:18,880 --> 01:56:19,360
Speaker 1: work well.

2326
01:56:19,320 --> 01:56:21,240
Speaker 2: Well, they're better than the Chargers this year. I'm not

2327
01:56:21,320 --> 01:56:23,040
Speaker 2: on the Charger. I'm on the Chargers are going to

2328
01:56:23,080 --> 01:56:24,400
Speaker 2: win a lot of games this year. I think year

2329
01:56:24,480 --> 01:56:27,040
Speaker 2: two and year three and four, that's what it picks out.

2330
01:56:27,320 --> 01:56:29,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this season, I think this season is going

2331
01:56:29,440 --> 01:56:31,360
Speaker 1: to be a struggle. I think it's uphill all right,

2332
01:56:31,400 --> 01:56:35,600
Speaker 1: coming up next? Which extension are you most concerned about

2333
01:56:35,720 --> 01:56:38,320
Speaker 1: we'll compare notes. He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Brian. Now keep

2334
01:56:38,320 --> 01:56:43,560
Speaker 1: it locked right here on Fox Sports Radio. It is

2335
01:56:43,760 --> 01:56:48,280

2336
01:56:48,360 --> 01:56:50,480
Speaker 1: you overrule me? Jeff? I thought this was supposed to

2337
01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:52,040
Speaker 1: be death metal? Here at the end of the show.

2338
01:56:52,400 --> 01:56:54,000
Speaker 2: This is my daughter'savorite song. Right now, she plays a

2339
01:56:54,080 --> 01:56:54,880
Speaker 2: song NonStop?

2340
01:56:55,200 --> 01:56:58,600
Speaker 1: Man, what's up with my girl? Mary Mack? I had

2341
01:56:58,640 --> 01:57:02,440
Speaker 1: to give equal opportunity back. You see what happens when

2342
01:57:02,440 --> 01:57:06,520
Speaker 1: we go the Schwartz route over is unbelievable. Right we listen,

2343
01:57:06,560 --> 01:57:08,920
Speaker 1: We're making his daughter proud. Hey, it's fine, It's all

2344
01:57:09,040 --> 01:57:13,600
Speaker 1: good here real fast. Before ball, I ran across these

2345
01:57:13,720 --> 01:57:16,120
Speaker 1: nicknames for Klay Thompson. You know, if you go either

2367
01:58:22,360 --> 01:58:25,000
Speaker 2: I looked up to uh just because I know he's

2368
01:58:25,000 --> 01:58:27,840
Speaker 2: your quarterback, but also maybe they added yeah some some

2369
01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:32,160
Speaker 2: joke from the last Donnie Donnie. How is this that's

2370
01:58:32,200 --> 01:58:34,440
Speaker 2: what's gonna bring up? How is that possible?

2371
01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:38,280
Speaker 1: The middle name is Donnie full.

2372
01:58:38,280 --> 01:58:40,680
Speaker 2: Like his first he's talking about before his his first

2373
01:58:40,840 --> 01:58:46,080
Speaker 2: name is very Polynesian, right, it's yes, twenty letters he

2374
01:58:46,520 --> 01:58:50,040
Speaker 2: said it before, and then it's legit Donnie and then

2375
01:58:50,080 --> 01:58:50,720
Speaker 2: talk of my love.

2376
01:58:52,000 --> 01:58:56,040
Speaker 1: That's awesome. That is awesome. Right there, no doubt.

2377
01:58:56,320 --> 01:58:58,920
Speaker 2: Someone has someone's got to ask him. How Donnie did

2378
01:58:58,960 --> 01:59:01,640
Speaker 2: do you think people just his name just call me Donnie?

2379
01:59:01,840 --> 01:59:02,920
Speaker 1: I have no idea.

2380
01:59:03,400 --> 01:59:05,880
Speaker 2: It was a baby. He couldn't say you, couldn't say tua,

2381
01:59:05,960 --> 01:59:07,720
Speaker 2: and somehow it came out weird and she came out

2382
01:59:07,760 --> 01:59:11,960
Speaker 2: as like like like my daughter couldn't say octopus. She

2383
01:59:12,000 --> 01:59:15,760
Speaker 2: would say apple sauce for like two years octopus. She

2384
01:59:15,840 --> 01:59:19,880
Speaker 2: like apple sauce. So like situations where like TWA couldn't

2385
01:59:19,880 --> 01:59:22,520
Speaker 2: say his name and just said Dawn. He called him Donnie.

2386
01:59:22,720 --> 01:59:24,120
Speaker 1: That's fine. I don't know if it was in the

2387
01:59:24,240 --> 01:59:25,080
Speaker 1: family or what.

2388
01:59:25,520 --> 01:59:28,080
Speaker 2: Just that is incredibly that's fantastic.

2389
01:59:28,240 --> 01:59:30,720
Speaker 1: The thing it makes me think of is my nephews

2390
01:59:30,760 --> 01:59:34,040
Speaker 1: were growing up. It's like the last word one of

2391
01:59:34,120 --> 01:59:38,400
Speaker 1: my nephews would mispronounce. He would say hella hocter and

2392
01:59:38,560 --> 01:59:42,040
Speaker 1: my dad went to correct him, and my sister was like, nope, nope,

2393
01:59:42,600 --> 01:59:44,760
Speaker 1: like that was the last word. They were screwing up

2394
01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:47,560
Speaker 1: and she didn't want them to say it right because

2395
01:59:47,640 --> 01:59:51,520
Speaker 1: it was like the last cute thing that was still intact.

2396
01:59:51,760 --> 01:59:55,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, my daughter still has a grammar thing she does

2397
01:59:56,200 --> 01:59:58,840
Speaker 2: and she's almost eight. That's not correct, but still like a,

2398
01:59:59,560 --> 02:00:01,160
Speaker 2: I forget what it is, but it's cute. I keep

2399
02:00:01,320 --> 02:00:03,120
Speaker 2: and I don't. I don't tell her to change it yet.

2400
02:00:03,400 --> 02:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go.

2401
02:00:04,160 --> 02:00:06,400
Speaker 2: He's one thing where she'd use the wrong to use

2402
02:00:06,440 --> 02:00:09,040
Speaker 2: the wrong tense of a thing, and just like just keep.

2403
02:00:09,120 --> 02:00:12,440
Speaker 2: Just it's okay. That the only kid thing you have

2404
02:00:12,560 --> 02:00:13,120
Speaker 2: left going for you.

2405
02:00:13,520 --> 02:00:16,440
Speaker 1: We might dive back into this next week, but just

2406
02:00:16,520 --> 02:00:18,600
Speaker 1: to pay it off right now. Would you be more

2407
02:00:18,800 --> 02:00:24,000
Speaker 1: uneasy with the contract extension for dak for Tua or

2408
02:00:24,080 --> 02:00:26,760
Speaker 1: for Jordan Love? Where would you stand on that.

2409
02:00:29,320 --> 02:00:29,720
Speaker 2: Right now?

2410
02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:32,960
Speaker 1: Right now, this offseason? What would give you the most?

2411
02:00:32,960 --> 02:00:37,040
Speaker 2: Probably fifty five million Jordan Love? I agree.

2412
02:00:38,040 --> 02:00:39,400
Speaker 1: We have one season.

2413
02:00:39,760 --> 02:00:41,160
Speaker 2: Yea, yeah, it's half. He didn't play well in the

2414
02:00:41,200 --> 02:00:43,120
Speaker 2: first half, but that's right, played ball in the second,

2415
02:00:43,160 --> 02:00:44,520
Speaker 2: play much best. Second half of the season.

2416
02:00:44,760 --> 02:00:45,240
Speaker 1: He played great.

2417
02:00:45,440 --> 02:00:47,680
Speaker 2: I was pointing up, like he plays well for eight

2418
02:00:47,760 --> 02:00:49,720
Speaker 2: games or maybe the whole season, Like, yeah, give give

2419
02:00:49,760 --> 02:00:51,760
Speaker 2: him the money, but right now, I mean, dak Iss

2420
02:00:51,760 --> 02:00:53,520
Speaker 2: what he is, but he's he's one playoff games.

2421
02:00:53,800 --> 02:00:56,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to know more. I don't feel great

2422
02:00:56,120 --> 02:00:59,640
Speaker 1: about giving fifty five MILLI year for one year. Everybody

2423
02:00:59,680 --> 02:01:00,520
Speaker 1: have a right evening
