34
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,240

39
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:07,919

Speaker 1: the animal Banister, the spark plug. Mike Frattello, what did

48
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: you think about the Knicks and pulling away at.

49
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: The end of the night. Well, I tell you, Mark,

50
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,079
Speaker 3: what I thought I saw in the third quarter was

51
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 3: the defensive intensity really came to bear and the Knicks

52
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 3: really exerted their their dominance late. That's a pretty good

53
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 3: Mike for Tello.

54
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 4: Well, and I shrugged my shoulders a little.

55
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: Actually, were hunching down in your seat, like I gotta

56
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 3: be shorter to do. I mean, we we saw that

57
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 3: graphic that was showing up on the internet. Here's Jim Gray,

58
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 3: he's the tallest of them. Doug Collins seated, then little

59
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 3: Bob Costas and then Mike Furtello was actually shorter than him.

60
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 4: But we're gonna sit in size order, everybody in size order.

61
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 3: Okay, here we go. That's how we're gonna do it.

62
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 3: But it was fun to see, right and the build up.

63
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 3: Now Michael Jordan is back on TV with regularity. He's

64
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 3: just holding up trophies after winning NASCAR events as opposed

65
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 3: to being part of the NBA another NBC, How foolish

66
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: are you right now? You paid him literally, what was

67
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 3: it like, one hundred million dollars for three minutes? Sit down.

68
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 3: We have no idea what the final like. Somewhere from

69
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:37,960

Speaker 3: racetrack these days for free.

71
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 4: And here's the law gets to talk to him every week.

72
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: And here's more of the two hour interview with Mike

73
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: to Rico that is being chopped up over the course

74
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: of an entire season.

75
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 3: This was taped eight months ago. But here is Mike

Speaker 3: Over, Yeah, it's not fantastic. Yeah, you're the brains, Like

Speaker 3: and and the driver and everything else.

83
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,520

00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 4: You might as much him.

Speaker 3: bunch when Lesorda would put on the have the crystal

87
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 3: ball out everything. That's kind of what you might as

88
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 3: well have had Jordan do when he sat down with Jeriko. Michael,

89
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,000

00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:26,240

Speaker 3: Happy for my pit crew, happy for my driver, happy

92
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: for my team. But but I don't think Luca and

93
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 3: jj Reddick are getting along. You want you to ask

94
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 3: me about that? Whoa, whoa, NBC's gone. Wait, come on,

95
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 3: we paid a lot of money for this. Come on, man,

96
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 3: we paid some money. That's that's what they should really

97
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 3: start doing. Hey, let's extend this another minute or two.

98
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 3: Let's ask you a couple of NBA questions, and here

99
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 3: we paid you for it. You're on for gratis. Don't

100
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 3: forgot halftime an interview Mike Urico did eight months before

101
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 3: the Olympic Games with Michael Jordan. They could have at

102
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 3: least faked it and made him have to do a

103
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: couple of wardrobe switches like he was shiky.

104
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 4: You're at a concert or something.

105
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: Wait, come on, but you know, look to make a

106
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: bigger point out of this, and it's great. Look you

107
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: see round ball roxy John Tesh pretending to dribble the

108
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: basketball when he's when he's when he's you know, conducting

109
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: round ball rockets. Awesome, right, it almost takes this thing

110
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: away from the fact that boy and I asked a

111
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: serious question here, how many more? How much longer can

112
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 1: the NBA go on where every night ninety percent of

113
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: the games are decided by ten, fifteen points or more.

114
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 3: How many more nights can we have that?

115
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: No, just take a look at tonight. Right, Spurs are

116
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: leading by forty nine. The lead is almost at fifty

117
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: going to the fourth quarter. Right, the Thunder lead the

118
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,359
Speaker 1: Bulls by fifteen with five minutes left. Timberwolves and the Grizzlies.

119
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: That's a nine point game with nine minutes left to go,

120
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: So that's kind of up in the air. Hornets beat

121
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: the Mavericks by twenty seven. Right, Cavillers beat the Pistons

122
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: by four. Right, Great Game Magic beat the Wizards by seventeen.

123
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 1: He beat the Nets by twenty seven, Nicks beat the

124
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: Raptors by sixteen. I mean, how much longer can the

125
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: NBA one where every game? And this is where you

126
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: think tanking is gonna be good. This is where every

127
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: NBA owner that says, oh, tanking's great, tanking will work.

128
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: You have to be able to take people are gonna

129
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: tune out of this product, man, because every single night

130
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: there's no compelling storylines to talk about. I mean, tonight

131
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: in the NBA, we got round Ball Rock, we have

132
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: the Throwback Game. Whatever fun we're gonna have with the

133
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: Knicks and me doing my Marv Albert, which I mean

134
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: it is really, really bad. Yeah, and it's really good,

135
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: So don't think we're not gonna have fun with it.

136
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: But I mean, look, look at every night. The every

137
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: night drama in the NBA season has gone because every

138
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: game is a blowout. Right, if you get one game

139
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: that's decided by less than ten points, you feel like, well,

140
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: at least I got one game tonight. How much longer

141
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: can the NBA go on like this?

142
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,599
Speaker 3: The running joke used to be, Hey, let's see what's

143
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 3: going on, maybe six minutes left, four minutes left in

144
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, tune in and see the score and

145
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 3: decide whether I'm coming in. That's been so exacerbated out

146
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 3: it's like halftime. Like, think about all the hype for

147
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 3: this game. Oh, they still do it now, but they say, hey,

148
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 3: tune in the second quarter. It's a four point game,

149
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 3: because the fourth quarter it's gonna be twenty points. Watch it.

150
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 3: But but like, think about this game tonight. The amount

151
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 3: of hype, press conferences, media availability and call ins and

152
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 3: promos for this How many times could they have shown

153
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: Minu Bowl draining six to three pointers on this date

154
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 3: thirty three years ago? I mean they probably went to

155
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: the whale at Hey, remember Moses Malone, Let's talk about

156
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,119
Speaker 3: him a little bit. That's all you can do, because

157
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 3: this game sucked and it wasn't like Wenby scored forty

158
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 3: points and it was near a triple double with blocks.

159
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 3: He hasn't had to do anything because they've been destroying

160
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 3: the sixers from the from the get go. So it's like,

161
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 3: all right, what do we talk about now? Hey, remember

162
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: that time we were at that restaurant. Let's come on,

163
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 3: let's just say.

164
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: What what would got What would have got higher ratings tonight?

165
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: If you did the throwback game like they're doing airing

166
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: Spurs in the seventy six ers, or if you did

167
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: the throwback night and just aired that game where Minut

168
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: Bowl had six.

169
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 3: Game we're gonna switch to a more competitive contest. That's

170
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 3: kind of where we're at.

171
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: We're switching to a more headitive game. This one from

172
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: thirty three years ago. We went back in the archives

173
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: and found them a newt ball six to three pointer game.

174
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: Enjoy it because I'm on the call sounding just like

175
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: this with Mike Frattello.

176
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 3: Or or no, no, no no. Maybe it would have

177
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 3: been more and being on the call myself and Matt

178
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 3: Gukas had this thirty three years and mats like that's

179
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 3: the thing that they would end up having to do.

180
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 3: Let's go through the roll call of all the folks

181
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 3: that have worked with us year. I bet you Doc

182
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 3: Rivers played in that game. I forget. I bet you

183
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 3: he played in that game thirty three years ago. I

184
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 3: might have to look up the box score for that one.

185
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: And Doc rivers first name is Glenn. No one calls

186
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 1: him that. They've all called him Doc.

187
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 3: That's his nick. Till Oscar de la Joya and I

188
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: party late night, John Contact. The five year, twelve million

189
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 3: dollar contract checks in for the Hawks. You got Charles

190
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 3: Barkley running over a high five and the New Bowl

191
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 3: after he's traded three and everything. That's how hediculous that

192
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 3: game got, you know, just to think about that for

193
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: the NBA for so, I'm not lying to you with

194
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 3: these scores going on right now. I mean, when when

195
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 3: you have a you have a night where you've got

196
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 3: nine or ten games or eight games a night. And

197
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 3: I don't mean that that when there's three games, okay,

198
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 3: there's three games, only so much you can do. Uh,

199
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 3: But when you have a full night and every game

200
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 3: is this, I'm like, when is when is tuning into

201
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 3: the NBA regular season of priority? When when does it

202
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 3: become like I sit back right now and I go

203
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 3: wouldn't now, seriously, wouldn't now be the best time to

204
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 3: have the playoffs in the NBA? Right? Think about it,

205
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 3: We're sixty games in we start.

206
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan if you can start the NBA

207
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 1: Christmas Day, but okay, let's start the normal time. You

208
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: don't want to be away for too I understand that

209
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: if you started the NBA where it is and think

210
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: about the sports calendar, Super Bowl happens. The immediate aftermath

211
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl, teams come to spring training. In baseball,

212
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 1: we're getting ready for March, the madness of March, World

213
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: Baseball Classic. Once every four years, we had the Olympics, Right,

214
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: what if we got into the beginning of March was

215
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 1: the NBA playoffs? Because now these are all useless games

216
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: for the next twenty some odd games till the end

217
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: of the season. It's just everybody is punching a time clock.

218
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 3: Right now.

219
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: We're going and we're playing. You're not gonna see big

220
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 1: movements in the standings. Maybe a team moves a spot

221
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: up or down, maybe a team slides into the play

222
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: in round, or maybe a team slides from the playing

223
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 1: round into the top six, or one team goes from

224
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: the top six into the playing round. That's all you're

225
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 1: getting for twenty some odd games, right. The NBA is

226
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: perfect at fifty five sixty games. Think about where you

227
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: would pick up the momentum in the sports calendar and

228
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: you go right to the NBA playoffs now, right, hey,

229
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 1: team it up. You have the NBA playoffs, you have

230
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: an NCAA tournament. All right, that's great, right, all, but

231
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna fight between now. It's really only one week.

232
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: The nca TURN has games every night one week. That

233
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 1: one week is okay, one week is all right, down.

234
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: The next week you'll play till Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

235
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,719
Speaker 1: It's okay, because that's really all that's going on. You're

236
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: not into baseball yet, you're out into the NFL draft. Yet,

237
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: there's enough to go around where basketball can really own

238
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: it in March and in Marching on. I mean, so

239
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: just think about this what we're seeing now in the

240
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: NBA with teams deciding, hey, we're gonna tank, but we

241
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: want to do it a little bit obliquely, like we're

242
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 1: in such a rough part of the NBA calendar where

243
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: it's never gonna get better. Teams aren't gonna suddenly start

244
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: playing it closer to the vest. Now play, we're gonna

245
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: try to win these games. You're just gonna get twenty

246
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: some odd games of every single night for the next

247
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: twenty games for the rest of these teams, where in

248
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: a ten ten games in a night, none of them

249
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: are gonna be decided by double digits. One of them's

250
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: may be close near the end. I don't mean like,

251
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: I don't even mean close where hey, we have a

252
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: buzzer beater, or it comes down to the final possession.

253
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: I mean close where at least in the final two

254
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: minutes it's up in the air. You're not can we

255
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 1: not get that?

256
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 6: No?

257
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 3: And that's been the difficult part. And as much as

258
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 3: you may love the flow of the game, and we

259
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 3: highlight the superstars and some of the big matchups where

260
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 3: where we've been blessed with with some of these ready

261
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 3: made for TV events, which in theory that could have

262
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 3: been the Spurs and Sixers for this throwback game. Instead

263
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 3: you got a lot of Charles Barkley. And again here's

264
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 3: my new poll on display in throwback fashion. But it's

265
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 3: it's just tough. Wait. We look at the Western Conference

266
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 3: right now, you've got all right between the three seed

267
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 3: and the seven seed divide decided by about four games. Okay,

268
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 3: so there might be a little bit of movement up

269
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 3: and down. You can still fall beyond the sixth spot

270
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 3: where we're watching the Nuggets, the Lakers, the Suns before

271
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 3: a little bit of a fallback to Golden State. Okay, fine,

272
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 3: Eastern Conference Pistons well ahead of the Celtics. Right there

273
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 3: are the Knicks and Cavaliers and then a couple game separation.

274
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 4: From there out we want to see the stars.

275
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 3: And really it always comes back to, all right, how

276
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: do you make it punitive enough to where it's it's

277
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 3: something the teams have to consider, right because you saw

278
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: those fines and teams that got fined just laughed at

279
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 3: at the commissioner's office. Because we talk about it in

280
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 3: the NFL all the time, Like, guys and the pain threshold.

281
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 4: Right, are you injured? Are you hurt? What can you

282
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 4: play through?

283
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 3: Never mind what you take and do to get yourself

284
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 3: on the field, and the immediacy guaranteed contracts versus non guaranteed,

285
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 3: all those things. For the NBA, how many times do

286
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 3: we see a guy at this point it's like, well,

287
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 3: he's done for the year. Oh, he might legitimately be injured,

288
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 3: but there's no incentive or disincentive in place that to say, hey,

289
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 3: he's got he's got a toughen out a few more

290
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 3: games here, right, the money's guaranteed, he's getting paid no

291
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 3: matter what. He's not fighting for the next contract. In

292
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 3: that moment, the team if they realize, hey, we're streaking

293
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 3: towards the lottery. We want as many lottery ping pong

294
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 3: balls as we can get. So until you change that

295
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,319
Speaker 3: function altogether, like there's nothing to suage. What one hundred

296
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 3: thousand dollars fine, five hundred thousand dollars fine. How much

297
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 3: we get from the revenue sharing off of these TV partnerships? Again,

298
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 3: the fact that this is where Mark Cuban needs to

299
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 3: jump up and do the same thing for the NBA

300
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 3: that he did for the NFL all those years ago,

301
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 3: talking about how you know the pigs get slaughtered and

302
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 3: all that stuff, because that might be where you are. Unfortunately,

303
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 3: guys are making money, so much money right now. They're

304
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 3: not looking down the road, right owners aren't looking down

305
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 3: the road. We just signed these big broadcast deal. Look

306
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 3: at all the money we're making.

307
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: Exit out bout a Fresca exit swelling Dome, Jason Smith

308
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: Mike Harmon, Live from the Fox Sports Radio Studios. I mean,

309
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: we're in this such a dead part. We're just waiting

00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: If you watch Ted Lassa, you see crazy things happen

349
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 3: it's exhibition. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter matters. It's

350
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 3: they're playing the Netherlands. Man, come on to your beef

351
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 3: with the Netherlands.

352
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 4: They're playing the Netherlands two to RBI the home run.

353
00:16:59,480 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 4: Come on.

354
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 3: Kenneley Jansen. Kenneley Jansen once played catcher for the Netherlands

355
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 3: and the WBC. He was a good catcher. He maybe

356
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 3: should have stuck with that all the games he blew

357
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 3: for the Dodgers. Yeah, I mean it was an eight

358
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 3: to five lost to the Netherlands. Yeah, that's okay, we lost.

359
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 3: They lost the pillow Fight to the Netherlands. Not you

360
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 3: td have Cosner uh rain drops, big story out of

00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 3: the NFL, big quarterback news. But first we have the

362
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,920

369
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 3: game all the big round ball rock and nineties graphics,

370
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 3: and you lead a team by forty nine points after

371
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 3: three quarters, well the San Antonio Spurs get to be

372
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 3: the play of the day.

373
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 7: Rhymes good if it goes from three quarters of the length,

374
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 7: but it comes up short. The Spurs do indeed make

375
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 7: history their largest lead through three quarters in Francise history,

376
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 7: forty nine points, one thirteen sixty four at the end

377
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 7: of three.

378
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 3: It's just so embarrassing the sixers. Now, hey they they

379
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 3: have cut it to forty two. Oh good, so this

380
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 3: last three minutes might really be something. It's one twenty

381
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 3: six eighty two. They have cut it to forty two.

382
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 4: No quitting this team, no question about it.

383
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: I want to see if the Spurs get it back

384
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: up to fifty. Hey, show me you got something here.

385
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 3: Walker and Watford really trying to bring the charge off

386
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 3: the bench. Late, guys are gonna play this message from

387
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 3: Greg Papovich who wants a fifty point win tonight. Okay,

388
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 3: you just take a look and see.

389
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: I mean Wemby, Wemby played twenty four minutes, He's got

390
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: ten points, eight players in double figures.

391
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,880
Speaker 3: That's it. This one just eight well for I mean,

392
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 3: that's it. It's still early. I mean, I mean Waters

393
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 3: has eight and is nine minutes played. I mean this,

394
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 3: like I said, how many more?

395
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: How much longer can the NBA go on with with

396
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: nine out of every ten games being of ten to

397
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: fifteen point burial every single night?

398
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 4: But you can't look at it and I get it.

399
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 4: We started getting it on Twitter.

400
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 3: Bring it on at how about a Presca at Swollen

401
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 3: Dome at Fox Sports Radio. I know there are a

402
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 3: lot of blowouts late in the season in the National

403
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 3: Football League, and certainly you have great degrees of variants

404
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 3: in terms of competitive balance in college football. That is

405
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: always going to be that that's never going to go away.

406
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,680
Speaker 3: You're in and you're out for the NFL, you still

407
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 3: had a third of your games decided by three or

408
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 3: fewer points. H So you know when we get down

409
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 3: to it in over one hundred games decided by seven

410
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 3: or few, or keep going on down the line, that

411
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 3: we we've got at least balance into the final weeks

412
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 3: of those seasons. Sure there are bottom feeders, and there

413
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 3: are teams that are heading towards the number one pick

414
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 3: in the draft, but you don't get to the level

415
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:14,640
Speaker 3: of tanking and just terrible play with months to go

416
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 3: like you do here. Yeah, you got one or two

417
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 3: teams that you can recognize are going to be terrible

418
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 3: in the National Football League. In the NBA, we're talking

419
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 3: about half the league looking around, going, well, there's gonna

420
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 3: be seven or eight really good players coming in that

421
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 3: are freshmen into the draft, plus the international prospects. To

422
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 3: hell with it. You're hurt, right, get in a suit.

423
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 3: So to the NFL we.

424
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 1: Go, where what we knew was coming became somewhat official today.

425
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 1: It's not going to be official official till next week.

426
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: But the Cardinals tell Kyler Murray he will be released

427
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: next week. You put a big message on social media

428
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: thanking the fans. Sorry he couldn't end the seventy seven

429
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: year drought for the organization. I am sorry, I failed us.

430
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: It's the Cardinals. I think everybody. Everybody is okay. It's

431
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: it's not like you went. Hey, Steelers, we couldn't get

432
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,880
Speaker 1: back to the super Bowl. Patriots Chiefs couldn't get back there. No, hey,

433
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. It's been seventy seven years. I think the

434
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 1: fans understand we're probably not gonna win a super Bowl.

435
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 3: But here's the thing, right, a lot put on his shoulders,

436
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 3: certainly as the number one pick going back to twenty nineteen. Right,

437
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 3: he's brought in, He and his guy Kingsbury. They were

438
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 3: going to rule the world. And you've seen a number

439
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 3: of coaching changes, regime changes. It goes back to how

440
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 3: much do you blame? You'll blame pie. And there are

441
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 3: certainly some that are stomping up and down on Kyler Murray.

442
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 3: Whether it's his size, whether it's his alleged love of

443
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 3: video games. How much of that's true and false? I

444
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 3: you know, you got to decide noise when stuff starts

445
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 3: leaking out like that, how much of that is coaching

446
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 3: staff's trying to fly, well, this guy just doesn't work

447
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 3: hard enough. How much of it is he's always been

448
00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 3: great going through high school, through the Heisman, through the

449
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 3: number one pick here being a top ten pick in baseball,

450
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 3: that that next level of dedication wasn't there because he

451
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 3: hadn't had to do it. I don't know how much

452
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 3: percentage you have signed there, but for him to put

453
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,879
Speaker 3: out that message to say, yep, put it on me, fine,

454
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 3: bring it on. I kind of dig that about it

455
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,159
Speaker 3: my for seventy seven years, that's not you. But okay,

456
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 3: but thank thanks for much. But by putting that specificity

457
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 3: on he goes I might have been part of the

458
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 3: problem here these last few years. Decide how much it's

459
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 3: a long standing issue. And yeah, Kurt Warner got closed,

460
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 3: but they did not break down that wall.

461
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: Now, two things, because there's one team that already Kyler

462
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 1: Murray is being linked with, and that's the Jets. And

463
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: I'm first to tell you this is not about the Jets,

464
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 1: because boy do I have a great hot take for you. Uh,

465
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: the Jets you only go to when you have no

466
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: other choices. Okay, that's when you go to the Jets.

467
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: We have no other choice, Right, why did Justin Fields

468
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 1: become a Jet? Wasn't going anywhere else? Only choice was

469
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 1: the Jets. Okay, I'm going to the Jets. Kyler Murray

470
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: has op he's got options, he's got teams that want them.

471
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: Are already seeing, hey, where could he fit with a

472
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 1: bunch of different teams. But you're seeing the Jets mentioned

473
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: most often because the Jets aren't getting a quarterback. They

474
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 1: are absolutely quarterback needy. They need to get a quarterback

475
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 1: this year because as much as you want to wait

476
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 1: and I'd love to see them tank for next year,

477
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: when quarterbacks there, we can go get Arch Manning or

478
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: Dante more and we have a new head coach and

479
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 1: everything else. Because we're just gonna suck this year. I

480
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: get that that's not gonna happen because Aaron Glennon company

481
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: want to be around for twenty twenty seven. So they

482
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: gotta go get a quarterback. They gotta get somebody to

483
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:33,400
Speaker 1: come in and win games. They can't just go three

484
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: and fourteen again and hope to be brought back. But

485
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: Murray's got options. He's got options. He's the most talented

486
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 1: guy out there. His resume, he's still young, he's got

487
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: a couple of Pro Bowls. He's gonna have a lot

488
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: of options. He should be the number one most sought

489
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 1: after guy. Whether he's number one on your board, but

490
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: he should be the number one most sought after player

491
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: because now you don't have to worry about trading for him,

492
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about salary, dead cap money. You

493
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: can sign him most likely to a deal we talked

494
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: about last week, which is, hey, two years and forty million.

495
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 1: That'll get you what what justin Field signed for last

496
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: year is what you can get a guy like Kyler

497
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: Murray for this year. Two years and forty million. Whether

498
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: it's got to be guaranteed or thirty million of it

499
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: is guaranteed, that's okay. But two years for Kyler Murray,

500
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: that's about where you're at.

501
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 3: Right. So that's Kyler Murray. So where's his fit? Because again,

502
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 3: he's got he's got options, right the men Jets are

503
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 3: no no options, Jets options anywhere else but the Jets.

504
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 3: Let me throw this out there.

505
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: We talked about this last night, that that Atlanta is

506
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: the best the best fit for him, right, we mentioned this.

507
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: He should want to go where Kevin Stefanski can can

508
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: continue to do the magic that he does with quarterbacks.

509
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 1: He should be joining a team that's young, up and coming,

510
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: the energy that he would bring. They should both be

511
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 1: desirous of each other. All right, Murray got getting there

512
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: with the team. He can make a lot of plays

513
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: with mobile quarterback. Atlanta is made for him. But let

514
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,400
Speaker 1: me throw this out here. Let me throw this hot

515
00:24:53,440 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: take out here. Are the Raiders really sold on Fernando Mendoza?

516
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: Are you sold on him?

517
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:06,959
Speaker 4: Oh?

518
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,920
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray for two years and forty million, and the

519
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 1: Jets will give you a lot for that number one

520
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 1: pick for Fernando Mendoza. They'll give you a ton or

521
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 1: somebody else would give you a ton to move up

522
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,959
Speaker 1: to get him because he's the only quarterback in the draft.

523
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: I say the Jets because I know that they went

524
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,160
Speaker 1: out and they looked at him a bunch of times.

525
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: They sent scouts to like I think the last nine

526
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: games he had. Are you that sold on Fernando? Do

527
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: you love Fernando Mendoza that much? Do you love him

528
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: that much? Because you've heard a lot of stuff coming

529
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 1: off the combine. Maybe his tape isn't that great. Look

530
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: I told you at the beginning, I thought Fernando Mendoza

531
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: is the best of a weaker group of quarterbacks. And

532
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: if he's a combination of Kerry Collins and Kirk Cousins. Okay,

533
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: is that a guy you draft number one overall? If

534
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: he's a combination of Kirk Cousins and Kerry Collins. Try

535
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: to say that three times fast, combination of Kirk Cousinskerry Collins.

536
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: Combination Kirk Cousinskerry Collins. Are you that sold? Or are

537
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: you better off if you're the Raiders because you're starting

538
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,760
Speaker 1: over with a guy like Kyler Murray coming into an

539
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,200
Speaker 1: offense where the head coach just won a Super Bowl,

540
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: just made it work with a quarterback that people had

541
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: in the scrappyap a couple of years ago. As good

542
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: as Sam Darnold was with the Minnesota Vikings, he goes

543
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: on and wins a super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks.

544
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: They win when he has big games, win when they

545
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: run the ball. Well, Clint Kubiak now taking over, this

546
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: is the job he wanted. He wanted the Raiders gig.

547
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:30,879
Speaker 1: This wasn't where Hey, the last guy standing is the

548
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: Raiders head coach. All of a sudden, I throw that

549
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,919
Speaker 1: out there. You sign Kyler Murray, you trade the number

550
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 1: one pick and you get a high first round pick.

551
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 1: Another first round pick, maybe a first round pick next year,

552
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: second round pick this year, because that number one pick,

553
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna want that quarterback. Somebody's gonna be all in

554
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 1: on Fernando Mendoza. If you're not in on him, if

555
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: you are not in, if you doubt a little bit

556
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 1: that he's the guy that maybe I don't know, I

557
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 1: don't know if his tapes stands out, I don't know,

558
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: if he's someone that's going to translate to the next level.

559
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:05,919
Speaker 1: Don't you look at this. Don't you look at this

560
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 1: and say, maybe Kyler Murray for two years and forty million,

561
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: because it doesn't work, we can easily go out and

562
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: get our quarterback next year. We always pick at the

563
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 1: top of the draft. If it works out for us, great,

564
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,360
Speaker 1: If not, we're.

565
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 3: Here again next year and we'll go get Arch Manding

566
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 3: or Dante Moore, whoever else is there.

567
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: Just think about if if you're not sold, does Kyler

568
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: Murray and a treasure trove of picks, including an early

569
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: first round pick, like you can draft Caleb Downs and

570
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: the numb you can draft Rvel Reees.

571
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 3: You can get somebody really good. You can you can go.

572
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: Get whoever you want to in the top five, top seven,

573
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,280
Speaker 1: because that's we're gonna wind up picking. Just think about

574
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: that option for Kyler Murray.

575
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 3: Well, the question for Murray becomes the reality of, you know,

576
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 3: how how robust is the marketplace because you've got a

577
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 3: lot of places that could be in play, right your Jets, Cleveland, Minnesota.

578
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 3: He was a Minnesota fan, right and O'Connell certainly after

579
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 3: the uh Quezy got back bounce and Justin Jefferson got

580
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 3: Chirpye and a lot of others potentially there. We talked

581
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 3: about Atlanta a lot yesterday. Certainly, options and the Mendoza

582
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 3: thing is something we have kicked that tire a couple

583
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 3: of times. You and I in terms of whether you

584
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 3: trade the pick. The look, the Cardinals are on the

585
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 3: hook for almost thirty seven million dollars, right, It's like

586
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 3: thirty six eight or thereabouts once they release him, So

587
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 3: it's not like you necessarily have to break the bank

588
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 3: for Kyler Murray. This might be the way you also

589
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,360
Speaker 3: figure out how to not only make a trade if

590
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 3: you're the Raiders and get picks back and everything else,

591
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 3: but if you can get Murray on the cheap on

592
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 3: approved deal not quite to the Russell Wilson. He's much

593
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 3: younger than Wilson was at the time. Denver swallowed that

594
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 3: pill and moved on. But if you can get him cheap,

595
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 3: then maybe you can figure out a way to keep

596
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 3: Max Crosby happy. Look, we bring in a quarterback, we

597
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 3: make a deal. We also have also pick, and you

598
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 3: could stay right because you want to be a raider

599
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 3: in theory, right, and that's where you try to figure

600
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 3: out what the noises around him.

601
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 4: But suddenly you.

602
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 3: Are able to build a roster with other picks for

603
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 3: the offensive line to bolster things. And suddenly you become

604
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 3: competitive and Murray's there on a maybe a one year

605
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 3: prove it, second year becomes club option. Hey, well we'll

606
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 3: play you then and go through that. But I don't

607
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 3: hate it. Like we watched Mendoza a lot and I

608
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 3: like him. But it is that question of does it

609
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 3: did he separate himself because of the back end struggles

610
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 3: of Simpson, because of nuss Meyer getting ousted at LSU,

611
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 3: and because guys that were expected to be some of

612
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 3: the head heavyweights in this class fell back.

613
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, North Dakota State moving up maybe and being the

614
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,239
Speaker 1: number two quarterback. If it's not ty Simpson, Right, is

615
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza really that good? Or is he just the

616
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: best quarterback in this draft? And because of that and

617
00:29:58,520 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: the Raiders need it?

618
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 3: Hey? No, Number one overall, there's your marriage, right. Just

619
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 3: think about that for a second, because I remember reading

620
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 3: some stuff last week where it was thrown out there

621
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 3: should teams trade for for Kyler Murray. I remember reading

622
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 3: one I think I think it was a Raider's blog

623
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 3: when someone someone said something like, oh if we traded

624
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 3: this pick and this pick.

625
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 1: For Kyler Murray. I'm like, you don't need to trade

626
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 1: a pick for Kyler Ridge. Just wait now, you get

627
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:21,640

00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 3: You don't need to give him a big contract.

630
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: You don't need to bring in Kyler Murray for five

631
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: years and two hundred and thirty million dollars. You can say, okay,

636
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: Do you love for Nando Mendoza that much? Now I'm

637
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: making all the Raiders palm sweat. How much do we

638
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,200

Speaker 3: in baseball, we've seen it for Otani, for Judge, back

770

771
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 3: of ninety eight, going back McGuire so, so whatever they

772
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 3: would authenticate the baseballs that were put into play, and

773
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,919
Speaker 3: I'm curious what the process was for the gold medal game. Hey,

774
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 3: just we got a couple of pucks. Just put him

775
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 3: in play, you know. I gotta think there was some

776
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 3: authentication process. I mean, they know the business. That's actually

777
00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 3: the puck that McDavid missed on the breakaway with. We'll

778
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 3: just tell him it's the Hughes which but I want

779
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 3: to know this and here because this this, this is

780
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 3: my main thing with this is that Hughes is I

781
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 3: have no idea what happened to the puck. And I

782
00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 3: get it that it's an incredible moment, game winning goal

783
00:37:55,280 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 3: in overtime Olympic. This puck, according to some professionals say,

784
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 3: this puck would go for a million dollars if it

785
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 3: was sold right now, a million dollars right now. With time,

786
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,919
Speaker 3: will it appreciate in value or depreciate. It probably will

787
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 3: go down, but right now it would go for a

788
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 3: million dollars. What I want to know is how did

789
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 3: nobody say, let's get the puck because we're in such

790
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 3: an We're in such an era now of knowing when

791
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 3: when Otani hit that fiftieth home run, we knew you

792
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 3: had to get that ball. Whenever somebody we know when

793
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 3: something's big. This puck is a big deal.

794
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: Not one person, I get cueses insane, But not one

795
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: person coming off the bench, not not one player, not

796
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,359
Speaker 1: one coach came on the ice and grabbed it and said, hey,

797
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: let me get that puck. Nobody, nobody grabbed the puck

798
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 1: like I don't understand. The Zamboni guy come out at

799
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: the end and go, hey, I got the puck. I'm

800
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,919
Speaker 1: gonna give it to you because that's a million dollar puck.

801
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 7: Man.

802
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: I know that Jack Hughes is in the middle of

803
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: an eight year, sixty four million dollar contract, so he's

804
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: doing okay. But somebody could had that somebody could have

805
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: picked it up. It could have been the guy out

806
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: to clean the eyes. I'm gonna make a million dollars

807
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: of this. I'm gonna sell. It's gonna change my life.

808
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: How did nobody pick up the buck? How did nobody

809
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: pick up that?

810
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, it just seems someone would have gone off the

811
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,360
Speaker 3: bench to grab it if nothing else for Team USA history,

812
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,880
Speaker 3: or for Hughes or or somebody would have had the

813
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 3: presence of mind to just go make sure there was

814
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 3: no question of providence and authenticity. It's like, all right,

815
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 3: I went and grabbed it from the back of the net.

816
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 3: Like I said, I wouldn't have been surprised if you

817
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 3: pocket that. Yeah, I gave up the goal, but I'm

818
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 3: gonna get a payday out of this, right, netminder, one

819
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 3: of the defense sewers. You're salty about it, but you

820
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 3: realize the largesse of the moment and what the memorabilia

821
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 3: market will do. Right, we doctor you and I going

822
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 3: back for a you know, a Tom sever item that

823
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,280
Speaker 3: went for over eight hundred thousand this weekend, Hulk Hogan's

824
00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 3: boots from WrestleMania One. Some question of whether it was

825
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 3: another Madison Square Garden card, but either way went for

826
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:09,439
Speaker 3: a million dollars. UH signed yellow boots this weekend. Here

827
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 3: piece of history, forty six years since the last US

828
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 3: gold medal. Yeah, there there's a hot market right now.

829
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 3: Someone would have been wise to make sure they plucked

830
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 3: that that puck immediately gone and gotten his stick gone.

831
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:26,439
Speaker 4: And got his held.

832
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 3: I don't understand you know how big a deal that is.

833
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: You know, we got it, whoever scores it, whoever scored

834
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 1: the goal, we gotta make sure we go get this

835
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: is gonna be a golden goal, right to it.

836
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 3: I don't get that. I feel it. So it's so

837
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 3: odd that that feels wrong. The Hall of Fame has it, like, hey,

838
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 3: nobody and went straight to the Hall of Fame, and

839
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 3: this is insane. Coming up next, we're the tags, right,
