22
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: But I'm kind of kicked up because the like the

23
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,760
Speaker 2: dead period of time in sports was always All Star

24
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: Break now is over. That means the second half. We're

25
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 2: about to get close to the start of football. And

26
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 2: if you know, you listen to the show, I mean,

27
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: obviously I'm the I'm the sports geek, right all you

28
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 2: know four sports. I mean, you name me, throw soccer

29
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: in there or anything else, golf, whatever. But I'm a geek,

30
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 2: so I love this stuff. But of course football is

31
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: so special and we miss it. The The off season

32
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 2: is so you know, long, and yeah, it's filled with

33
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: the draft, which is fun, and you got free agency

34
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: in the schedule and these little milestones throughout the off

35
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,839
Speaker 2: season that can help you past the time. But there's

36
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 2: nothing like the games. And we're about to hit that

37
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: period where training camp for a lot of teams are

38
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 2: going to start to open. I'll give you some dates

39
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 2: coming up from your teams, the you know. And I know,

40
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,839
Speaker 2: it was funny. I was at an event last night

41
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: with a bunch of NFL guys and it was funny.

42
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: They started talking. They were telling me the old war

43
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: stories about training camp and what training camp was and

44
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: how argeous and you know, and it's different now, and

45
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: you know it probably should be, because the worst thing

46
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 2: that could happen in training camp were you know, some

47
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: serious injury, and those things happened. I mean, you know

48
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: those guys. It's the fine line right between building calluses

49
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,119
Speaker 2: and you know you're going too much and going too

50
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 2: hard and do now some coaches and I'm never forgetting

51
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,119
Speaker 2: Andy Reid, who I think is, you know, the best

52
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: coach in the league. Beljack obviously, but Andy's a great,

53
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 2: great coach. And I remember those days he used to train.

54
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: He would have a training camp in Lehigh, Lehigh, Pennsylvania,

55
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: and it was in the Lehigh Valley at a at

56
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 2: a college. You know, all the all the teams back

57
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: before the facilities. The teams went away to these small colleges.

58
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 2: Some still do and you know, the for the camaraderie.

59
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 2: They would go up and they'd live in a dorm

60
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: for you know, six weeks or five weeks, however long

61
00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: your camp lasted. And Andy's camp was was when he

62
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: first started. He was the coach in nineteen ninety nine

63
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 2: for the Philadelphia Eagles. That's how he started. Andy and

64
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 2: he ran a nasty camp I mean it was chew

65
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 2: a Jay's and I'll never forget the schedule because it

66
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: was you know, I was up there for the duration

67
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 2: and he would have your first like six days were

68
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: too a days, and then you know he would give

69
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 2: it to everybody a break and you would get one

70
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: and maybe some of the veterans would get the second

71
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 2: day off. But it was nasty and there were fights,

72
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 2: and it was very, very physical, and he believed in

73
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 2: this real physical camp. Now things changed, right, you know,

74
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: the Players Association look at this stuff and they go,

75
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 2: you know, the wear and tear on the body. You

76
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 2: know that changes. Not the old football. You know, the

77
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 2: old football guys go out. You still need to build

78
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 2: up the calluses of hitting and feeling it and unders,

79
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 2: you know, having your body kind of build that up.

80
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: And with when you add seventeen games, the player Associates says, listen,

81
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 2: you know we're gonna ease off on the camp. So

82
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 2: it's a little bit different. And a guy like Andy Reid,

83
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: I've seen him kind of morph and change and you know,

84
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 2: you're you look at some camps now you don't even

85
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: hit to the ground, right, and it does. It makes

86
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: some sense. And we've advanced in sports science to allow

87
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 2: us to kind of get into shape. Nothing's gonna nothing

88
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 2: will replace that hitting thing, because that is what gets

89
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 2: you going. But you know, the good news is that

90
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 2: you know you have seventeen games, so you could use

91
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 2: part of September to kind of be that, you know,

92
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 2: glorified game. I always thought preseason games were meaningless because

93
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 2: you don't really need it. You might need an address rehearsal,

94
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 2: but you can achieve what you really wanted to achieve.

95
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 2: For a coach and controlled scrimmages, so you worked out

96
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: with love team, you can really achieve what you wanted

97
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 2: to achieve. So I, as you can tell, I'm back

98
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: and I'm geeked up. So I was in Italy and

99
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,679
Speaker 2: I was all over Italy. I was in Naples, and uh,

100
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: I was in Rome, and then we went to Naples

101
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 2: and then Sorrento, and then we went across to uh

102
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 2: to Pulio. On the other side this little town called

103
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: v Estay, which is, you know, terrific and it's all

104
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 2: it's beautiful, and uh we have my wife has a

105
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 2: travel company, so in Italian travel company, so we took

106
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 2: we had a bunch of people that we took over

107
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 2: to the other side and it was a lot of

108
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 2: fun and it was beautiful. But what struck me was

109
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 2: in Naples, which is you know, a lot like uh,

110
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 2: you know our kind of cities, right, because it's this say,

111
00:06:55,480 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: it's it's a free for all. Naples is worse traffic

112
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 2: than New York, the way they drive, the way they

113
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: drive everything else. But what struck me was they won

114
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: the Italian Soccer League Championship Siria, so they won the

115
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: Syria Championship and they won that. Syria was in June,

116
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: end of May. It was like and the may or

117
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 2: early June when it ended and Naples wins it, the

118
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 2: city was still dressed up in the colors. I mean

119
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 2: everywhere you walk, I mean, and you know, people know

120
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 2: of the Mafi Coast from which is right adjacent to Naples, right,

121
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 2: so it's all part of the same region, and it

122
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: was all dressed up. I mean, streets had the colors.

123
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 2: You know, they had penance, you know, streaming across from

124
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 2: rooftop to rooftop in this in the colors of Napoli

125
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: and the players. I mean, you'd be streets and you'd

126
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 2: be you'd see these these plaques from every player on

127
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 2: the team. I mean, like, I never saw anything like

128
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: it that a whole city. I mean, this is we

129
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 2: went all throughout the city and the whole city was

130
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 2: dressed up in these colors. I mean I saw the

131
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 2: jerseys everywhere. I saw the you know, the tribute to

132
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 2: the championship everywhere. And this is, you know, a couple

133
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: months later, still relatively fresh, but you know, you went

134
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 2: to pray like I. You know, it's funny. I was

135
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 2: thinking about this because I went, I was in Kansas

136
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 2: City before the Super Bowl, but I had not been

137
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: in Kansas City since, and I'm imagining, like, you know,

138
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's gotta be some you know, decorations in

139
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: the city that are attributing the chief you know, the

140
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 2: tribute to the Chiefs. But this was the entire city

141
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,959
Speaker 2: that was bathed in the colors of the soccer team

142
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 2: and still still going strong. You know, I've never seen it,

143
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 2: and they're legend and everywhere you look there is a

144
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 2: you know, everybody's heard of Meredona. So when Maradona was

145
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,839
Speaker 2: in uh when he played for Naples, he brought the

146
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 2: championship and he's like a deity in Naples. So I'm

147
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 2: trying to kind of compare it to us, and you know,

148
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 2: who's your way of life? Like this soccer team is

149
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 2: their way of life. I mean man, woman, child, I

150
00:09:54,520 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 2: mean dog, I mean they all are just enamored by

151
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 2: this team. And it was it was it was uncanny.

152
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 2: I haven't been there. And my guess is we do

153
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 2: some of that in college towns. My guess is Buffalo

154
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 2: is like that. And I'm curious, probably Pittsburgh. You know,

155
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 2: I live in Philadelphia, and you know, we're like that

156
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 2: to a degree with the Eagles alls teams, but you know,

157
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 2: predominantly I think the great comparison would be football. But

158
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 2: I've never seen a city that cling to this one

159
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 2: team and this championship that was. There was one recently,

160
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 2: but it wasn't like, you know, I arrived in three

161
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: days later they one, and you know, I mean they

162
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 2: were still celebrating this team. It was crazy. They told

163
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 2: me that when they won the title, the league title,

164
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 2: the city party for a week. That they shut down.

165
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 2: There was no school for three days. That all they

166
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 2: did was party and celebrate and sing in the streets.

167
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 2: And you know, Naples the home of pizza and eat

168
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 2: a lot of pizza and hang out. I mean it

169
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,560
Speaker 2: was it was uncanny. I got to introduce you to

170
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 2: my boys. Big ee. What do you say, brother?

171
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 3: What a story? What a story? How about Naples?

172
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, it was just interesting because being a

173
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: sports person that, you know, trying to compare the closest

174
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 2: thing to that, because we have this similar way of life, right,

175
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 2: like we do the way of life thing right, like

176
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 2: football is our way of life, Like I'm not going

177
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,199
Speaker 2: to training camp dates, right, So that's the closest comparison.

178
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 2: I just had never seen a city that was still celebrating,

179
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 2: you know, a couple months afterwards.

180
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's just hits different there. It's like religion.

181
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,439
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's come to a point over here.

182
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 3: It's like football, we take it seriously. You know, they say,

183
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 3: like football's religion. That's the saying.

184
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

185
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, I think there's

186
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 3: a line for Americans with sports that they don't go to,

187
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 3: like a certain line that they don't cross. And the

188
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 3: Europeans cross that line, Like you're saying, like they're still celebrating.

189
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 3: Who does that? You know, not in America? You don't

190
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 3: see that.

191
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't you know, it's funny. I don't know.

192
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: I guess I want to ask I guess I want

193
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 2: to ask that question, right, because there's gotta be up.

194
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:42,719
Speaker 2: So it was May fourth, is when Naples wanted and

195
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 2: I was there, you know, this past over the past

196
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. So you're talking about you know, all

197
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 2: of May, all of June. And so two over two

198
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: months later, they're still dressed up and bathed in the colors.

199
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 2: And the celebration of their title.

200
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't see that. Kansas City when the Chiefs one,

201
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 3: they celebrated for three days and they said, all right,

202
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 3: back to work.

203
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not suggesting you should you expect.

204
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 3: The culture.

205
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I do think there is a part I did.

206
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if the colors are you bathe in

207
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 2: the same colors, And maybe it's just you know, it's

208
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: just that this small town kind of field for it. Yeah,

209
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's it's the closest thing. Again, my

210
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 2: guess is if Buffalo wins a Super Bowl finally, that

211
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 2: that's what it would be.

212
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 3: Like, not for two months, like maybe for like well,

213
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: it would be the talk of the city. Like if

214
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 3: you went there and you were visiting from out of town.

215
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 3: It would be like there would still be Bill's stuff,

216
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 3: like in every restaurant hanging. I feel like, you know, I.

217
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: That's what I mean, like and that's and that's what

218
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: it was. I mean, they had like the side streets,

219
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: these ancient streets, right, and they're all you know, they're

220
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 2: the number three, it's their third title. So the number

221
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 2: three was everywhere in the colors of the of the

222
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 2: of the team, and so the number three was everywhere.

223
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 2: They had pictures like these. You ever see these these?

224
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 2: You ever see a funeral, like a New Orleans style

225
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 2: funeral where they hold like a framed picture of the

226
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 2: of the deceased. Mark has I haven't Mark, Good morning, Muddy.

227
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: Mark greeting. Sorry, welcome back.

228
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 2: How are you, buddy?

229
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: All as well? In the big city, my man, my man,

230
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: So carry on. I think I think what you're talking about.

231
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 1: In Chicago. So you know the bears from Chicago many

232
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: moons ago, you know, when they could actually play, you know,

233
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: yet the whole city, you know goes crazy bears. This

234
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: bear that they put a bear's helmet on the lion

235
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: in front of the Art.

236
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 2: Art Museum, Yes, yes, And then the iconic Lion.

237
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, they did that. Somebody stole the helmet and

238
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 1: then somebody put it back, so that was the whole thing.

239
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: But whatever. Now, when the Bulls won, so that was

240
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 1: the nineties, Yes, the whole town had the red on

241
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: and you know, going crazy about Jordan all that kind

242
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 1: of stuff. Now, when the Cubs won, the entire city

243
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: went crazy because even though the White Sox won in

244
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: two thousand and five, that was one part of the

245
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: city that were very hot because you know, two thousand

246
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: and five they won a championship before the Cub So

247
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: the White Sox fans went crazy, but it wasn't until

248
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: what sixteen seventeen when the Cubs won, then the rest

249
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: of the city could go crazy about their Cubs. So

250
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: it's it depends on, in my view, how big the

251
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: area is, so Chicago's very big, and then you have

252
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: your section of fans. I mean, then the Blackhawks won,

253
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: so that was another whole thing about winning and everybody

254
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: going crazy. So about how long I wasn't really I

255
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: wasn't there. I was out here on the West Coast

256
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: by then. But it just depends on how long the

257
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: celebration lasts based on the area so being in an

258
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: Italy town, I guess it's smaller and everybody probably almost

259
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: knows everybody because they may all have a cousin or

260
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: somebody together. So you know, so you want to celebrate

261
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 1: because you won. You can walk around the street. We won,

262
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: never played a game, but we won. Small town will,

263
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: I guess, celebrate bigger and longer versus a big town

264
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 1: who is happy that they won. And then it slowly,

265
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: slowly fades away.

266
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 2: It's a great, great summation right there, money Mark. It

267
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 2: really is Tribe Chicago, which is such a great sports town.

268
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 2: I lived there for a couple of years. In fact,

269
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: I saw the one of the Jordans or two of

270
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 2: the Jordan championships, and Grant Park was the you know,

271
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 2: the celebration, and I remember like the Russian division streets,

272
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 2: people going wild, and you know that the night day

273
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: one and they were freaking out and the whole thing.

274
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 2: And I think, you're I'm sure, like I putting the

275
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 2: bears helmet on the Lion of the Art Museum is

276
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,439
Speaker 2: an awesome like that's exactly something that would happen. What

277
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: I just saw.

278
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: Even the people in the suburbs knew that they put

279
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: a lion in the put a hat on the lion.

280
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean, everybody knew that.

281
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,919
Speaker 2: Yeah that's cool because the Chicago Art Museum is one

282
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 2: of the iconic, you know, great museums in our country. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

283
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: that's cool. All right. So you know the theme, the

284
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 2: theme is going to be and we're going to open

285
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 2: it up to our callers and talk to our friends,

286
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 2: and the theme is going to be out to be

287
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 2: the way of life in your city and your town.

288
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: What is the way of life? Like? It? Is it

289
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 2: which team provides the way of life for you guys?

290
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 2: Like I like? I love the culture piece of it.

291
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 2: The culture piece of sports is really interesting because we

292
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 2: always talk on this show about you know, bringing people together,

293
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 2: and you know, the whole thing. And to really know

294
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,959
Speaker 2: a place is to know it's culture. And you know,

295
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 2: the ways that we celebrate are you know, food, right,

296
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 2: and sports? Really, I mean obviously, you know there's other

297
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 2: cultural events and everything, but what brings a talent together

298
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 2: is sports and food. And so I was in the

299
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 2: mecca of sports and food with pizza and pasta, which

300
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 2: was amazing. We'll get lots to do a lot of

301
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,480

350
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,280

384
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 2: are made a big e mighty mark is that we

385
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 2: hang out on this July to fifteenth. So let me

386
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 2: ask you a question, Marky, what has been like? Tell

387
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 2: me what I missed? Like I was completely on another

388
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 2: plane of existence. I have like no concept. I literally

389
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 2: I was like, you know what, some days, you know,

390
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 2: when you're on vacation, you're a you're still kind of

391
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 2: you know, tapped in because you're in the country and

392
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,200
Speaker 2: you know you might be that de beat somewhere or whatever,

393
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 2: like you know where you hang out at, but being

394
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 2: in in the other country, you're a time difference everything else. Yeah,

395
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 2: my phone, I was connected, but I didn't really you know,

396
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 2: I kind of checked out. So what was the biggest

397
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 2: thing I missed? I'll start with you, mighty Mark.

398
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing that you miss what I

399
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: can off top of my head is the debut of

400
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: the the basketball the number one pick and san Antonio

401
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:30,880
Speaker 1: this from the.

402
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 2: Spur weby Mania, Yeah.

403
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 5: Supper.

404
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: So to me, it felt like they only talked about

405
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 1: him and that there were no other players that were

406
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: brand new. It made it sound like he was the

407
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:52,640
Speaker 1: only new player. Meanwhile, there's somebody from the Trails Blazers,

408
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: and I think there's somebody on the Rockets that's brand new,

409
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: like the number two or whatever pick they It appeared

410
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: that he was the only person that you could think about,

411
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: and I thought that was kind of a slight to

412
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,160
Speaker 1: the other.

413
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 2: Players brand new, Well where be you know, because of

414
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,919
Speaker 2: the size and the skill set, right, Like when you

415
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: get a kid that long, right that tall, with that

416
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 2: kind of skill set, I mean it is it's almost

417
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 2: freakish to watch because you know, it's what makes Durant

418
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 2: so great, right, Like, so Durant can shoot over everybody,

419
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 2: and he's got that great length in the Now you

420
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: add on another staff of foot to k D, right

421
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 2: like you're looking at Wendy, you're looking at you know,

422
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 2: another half a foot to KD.

423
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: Everybody's got to watch for their jump shop because he

424
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: could block it. Yeah, and he did it to some

425
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: of the games.

426
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And he also shoots over you like he

427
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 2: actually hides a handle and you know we're not used

428
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 2: to listen. Indeed, is a guy that kind of broke

429
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 2: the mold, right. It started with Elijuan, but teams like seven,

430
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 2: like with six can six y nine, and you know

431
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 2: it was an incredible athlete and then it being you

432
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 2: know at seven quo, you know, three hundred and you

433
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 2: know whatever, he because he's a big dude, and he's

434
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 2: got that incredible skill set right that he can handle.

435
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 2: He's got great touch, the whole thing. But you know,

436
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 2: Wemby is an entirely different kind of dude. Now he's

437
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 2: rail thin and read thin, but you know again he's

438
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 2: he can shoot it and he can he's got a handle,

439
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 2: and it's it's he's so unique when it comes to that.

440
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, his first game, I guess, like anybody and doing

441
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 1: something brand new, he kind of stumbled around and kind

442
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: of didn't know what he was doing. But the next game,

443
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 1: I thought, he scored twenty seven points. So he eventually

444
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 1: will they'll get him in the rate weight room and

445
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: he'll walk up and then he'll just get better at

446
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: you know, how operations go, just get better orientation of things.

447
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: He'll get it and he'll you know, get better as

448
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: it goes.

449
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 2: His body also, like your point, you know, he's got

450
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 2: a body's got to be sure.

451
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: Right, he's got to get he'll he'll get better, he'll

452
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: get a little bit bigger. And it was, you know,

453
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: just appear. It's like so much pressure. He's gonna be

454
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,640
Speaker 1: horrible because he only scored what nine points the first down,

455
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: but then the next time he got twenty seven points.

456
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 1: So give the guy a chance. Let him get through

457
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: the first whatever fifty games, you know, when the season

458
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: starts or whatever it is. Let him get past some

459
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: games to I know sports talk can't wait that long.

460
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: I understand that, but just give the guy a break.

461
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 2: You know, it's funny, it's it's it's interesting, like we're

462
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 2: we're enamored, like he's a guy that has our that's

463
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 2: our imagination. And it's funny. There's no sport like basketball

464
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 2: that captures the imagination. It's it's unbelievable, like the the

465
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 2: For some reason we are we we see a talent

466
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 2: in basketball, and then we have to become obsessed with

467
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 2: the town. Now, your point is spot on right correct

468
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 2: in every which way, which is, you know, he's a

469
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 2: kid and he's gotta be able to you know, you

470
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 2: gotta let him marinate, right like you gotta let him

471
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 2: learn and grow and the whole thing. And especially at

472
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 2: with his size, his immense size, you're gonna he's gonna

473
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 2: need to mature or do his thing. But yeah, I mean,

474
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,479
Speaker 2: you know, listen, it's funny. Summer League has become a

475
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 2: great tradition in the NBA because the cut the hand

476
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 2: full of rookies that you're excited to see. It's like

477
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 2: you get to open the present, you know, Christmas morning

478
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 2: and play with the toy right like you're a kid again.

479
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 2: And that's kind of how we treat the players, like, oh,

480
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 2: like we can finally get to see him and watch

481
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 2: him play. And then of course we're critiquing it, which

482
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 2: is ridiculous because Agga's Summer League and b you know,

483
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 2: he's just getting his feet wet the whole thing. So

484
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 2: you're you're spot on, spot on, Piggy. What I miss

485
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 2: for you.

486
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, besides our fightings get a little hot,

487
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 3: I would say the NBA drama with all the trades

488
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 3: and stuff, and obviously you know the James Harden thing,

489
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 3: and you know I was gonna bring up that, and

490
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 3: you know, Victor Oladipot Miami making a lot of moves

491
00:30:55,680 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 3: getting rid of Strus and all the depot and which

492
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 3: the ladies with Dame Dame, I don't I I haven't

493
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 3: seen anything. But they're saying he's going to go to Miami.

494
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I tell you not much other than what

495
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 2: I read, and I and the Sixers probably are not

496
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 2: in that mix. That's the only thing I was I

497
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: was talking to somebody.

498
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 3: I don't think Sixers are landing anybody. No, but I'm trying.

499
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 3: I'm looking at right now some other big moves that

500
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 3: happened recently.

501
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: So I guess they're close to a deal. Is that right?

502
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 3: It's close, But you know how that is. You never know.

503
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 3: It's like he'll end up being on the Pistons tomorrow.

504
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 2: Well, no, they they're not going to go there.

505
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: I know.

506
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 2: I was just saying. I mean, it's it's so funny

507
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 2: because anytime you see in that league where the player goes,

508
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 2: you know, I want to play here, you know, and

509
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 2: it'll it'll happen.

510
00:31:58,160 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 3: You think it, You think it happens like that.

511
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think superstars get to almost get to choose

512
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 2: their team.

513
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 3: Well the best. I don't you think a guy like

514
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 3: Dame that second tier? You think Dame is first he

515
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 3: or second tier.

516
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: He's the first tier superstar.

517
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see.

518
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 2: You don't think he's he's definitely first.

519
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 3: No, I think he's first here. But you know, maybe

520
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,959
Speaker 3: some people would have him second tier. I don't know.

521
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: Nah, he's first here. I'm curious. I love this. I'm

522
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 2: curious to say him outside of Portland. You know, it's

523
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: interesting because you know, he was there so long and

524
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 2: kept clinging it, you know, through rebuild after rebuild after rebuild,

525
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: and kept clinging to, you know, to Portland. And he's

526
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 2: been loyal as well, get out right and you know,

527
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 2: finally and it just unraveled overnight where you had to

528
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 2: he I guess he answered it was some tweet someone

529
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 2: was bust in his stones and he's like, oh yeah,

530
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 2: all right, well you know what, you know, if you

531
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 2: want me going, I'll give you life without Dame. And uh,

532
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 2: you know, all of a sudden he's gone, and all

533
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: of a sudden he goes, I want to go to

534
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 2: Miami and they're gonna make it happen. And you look

535
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 2: at you look at what they have. I don't know

536
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:23,479
Speaker 2: they're gonna, they're gonna, they're gonna steal. You could see it.

537
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 2: They're gonna give nothing, and Dame will wind up in Miami.

538
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 2: And that's what happens in the league where players have

539
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 2: all that they have all of this way.

540
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see how he plays with others.

541
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 1: Meaning it doesn't seem like he had much help while

542
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: he was a troll Blazer. He seems like he was

543
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: the number one guy, and you know that's that he

544
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 1: was by himself, but he was the only one really

545
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: making a difference in games, have the last shot, things

546
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: like that. So if he has other quality guys like

547
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: him around, will it get better for him? Will he

548
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: get closer and then you know that it'll just push

549
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:15,320
Speaker 1: them over, not easily, but it'll contribute to him getting

550
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 1: higher and higher in the game.

551
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 3: Especially if you had Jimmy Butler. But those two together,

552
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,280
Speaker 3: that's scary.

553
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean two guys that are that are also

554
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:25,760
Speaker 2: money guys.

555
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 3: Yeah right, they also really want to win. These two

556
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 3: like they're like at the brink where it's I can't

557
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 3: believe I haven't won anything, like they've just been through

558
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 3: the ring.

559
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 2: You got like two more years of you probably got

560
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 2: two more years of elite play.

561
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 3: What's your thought on the Knicks I'm looking at them

562
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 3: right now. They just got rid of it Wobi topping.

563
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 3: That's the only that's the only thing they've done in

564
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 3: this offseason.

565
00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I you know, it's funny, man. They were

566
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 2: they were buzzing around embad in case things went south

567
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 2: with embiid and and the franchise said they were there were.

568
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 2: There was all kinds of rumors and all kinds of

569
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 2: stuff about the next trying to swoop in, which I

570
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:18,919
Speaker 2: never thought was was possible. Like, you know, you would

571
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 2: never trade, you know, your best player within the division,

572
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 2: and they don't have anybody that you would want to

573
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 2: trade for.

574
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 6: You know.

575
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 2: It's you know, that's their problem. All right, we got

576
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 2: to take a quick to you. We'll come back and uh,

577
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 2: I smell it. Do you smell football? Boys? Do you

578
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 2: smell it?

579
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: I know you do. It's wafting over your house like

580
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 1: a burning building.

581
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:52,839
Speaker 2: Yes, like a barbecue, right, which they don't have. Uh,

582
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,760
Speaker 2: you know it's funny. I purposely plan my time off

583
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 2: in the summer, usually do it a little bit later

584
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 2: so I could come in and bang, I'm in the

585
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 2: middle of it, right, But I couldn't control the dates

586
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 2: of the trip that was my wife. All right, we'll

587
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 2: come right back. Fellas hanging right here, Fox Sports Radio. Oh,

588
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 2: welcome back, fellas hanging out on a Saturday, July the fifteenth.

589
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 2: What's happening with Otani? Talk? And so cal? I wonder

590
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 2: what's going to happen when it comes to all the

591
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 2: rumors surrounding Shone Otani. You gotta trade them, you know,

592
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 2: if you can't sign them, you have to trade them

593
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 2: if you're the angels this month. As much as you

594
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: just don't want to do it.

595
00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: He's out for a pit stop, So I'll just take

596
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 1: over for a seat.

597
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 2: But you gotta you gotta be able, have to be

598
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 2: able to trade him. I'm sorry if you can't sign him.

599
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 2: You know, I know everybody down there is probably freaking

600
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: out because I would be freaking out losing babe Ruth right.

601
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: Right right, there's you know, I guess there's talk in

602
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: the town about you know, whether it's gonna happen or

603
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 1: not and why or I guess between holding onto him

604
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: and trying to get other pieces and then deliberating of

605
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: reasons why you should trade him, going back and forth

606
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: between those two things about you know what to do

607
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 1: and why to do?

608
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 2: It.

609
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: So everybody's still debating about what to do about Otani.

610
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 2: Well, honestly, there's really no debate in that. You know,

611
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 2: if you can't sign him, you gotta you know, you

612
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 2: made your pitch to him. He is here. You know.

613
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 2: The best thing I would do is say, listen, we

614
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,839
Speaker 2: want you. We want you more than anything. I'll sign

615
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 2: you right now. I know you're gonna want to go

616
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 2: to free agency. I get it, but you can't risk

617
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 2: like I can't risk getting nothing. It's gonna get draft

618
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:24,279
Speaker 2: pick for you know, you know, the greatest player of

619
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 2: the game. I can't risk that.

620
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 3: I just don't know what the Angels are. I just

621
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 3: don't know what the front office is actually thinking. That's

622
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 3: the hardest thing because it's there's pros and cons of both,

623
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 3: Like if they get like if they get rid of

624
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 3: him mid season, Like I don't see too many pros

625
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 3: to that because you're saying like you're saying, like, what

626
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 3: are they going to get back? But at the same time,

627
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 3: I can see a team like the Yankees just giving

628
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 3: everything they got to get him in New York. I

629
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 3: don't know what do you think?

630
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 2: Oh, listen, there's a lot of teams the Dodgers. I mean,

631
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 2: you know, if I'm the Dodgers, I'm going all in

632
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 2: right now, right There's a lot of teams that would

633
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 2: love them. But if you're the Angels and you're sitting

634
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 2: there and you're going, I'm out, I'm eight games behind.

635
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 2: You know, Texas, I got you know, three teams in

636
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,879
Speaker 2: front of me. Let's let's be real. I'm not I'm

637
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 2: not making the playoffs. I gotta trade them. I can't

638
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 2: just get nothing. I can't walk away at the end

639
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 2: with just a draft pick for that kind of talent.

640
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I think you're you're kidding yourself. Anyway, Fellas

650
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 2: Of course, Pitts last night was electric early and they

651
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,800
Speaker 2: had five strikeouts for the first two innings. Got to

652
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 2: hit a little bit, Astro's going to win. But the

653
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 2: whole point is is that you got a guy like this,

654
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 2: this kind of talent, and it appears like you know

655
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 2: he's going to walk, so you gotta be able to

656
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 2: get something for him, you know, I mean, that just

657
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 2: has to happen. But it was interesting. What surprised me

658
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 2: was I asked the big e Hey, what's you know,

659
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,280
Speaker 2: what's going on with Angels fans? Are they up in arms?

660
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 2: Are they freaking out? Like it would royally suck to

661
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 2: lose the player of that ilk to lose like a

662
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 2: great player. You know, it blows. And it's amazing because

663
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,800
Speaker 2: here they go Trout Otani for all these years and

664
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 2: just can't and can't do anything. I never even like it,

665
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 2: Like you have two of the best players. I know

666
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,839
Speaker 2: Trout has been a little dinged in the whole thing,

667
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 2: but I mean, for all this time, you have two

668
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 2: of the best players in the game. You have a

669
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,399
Speaker 2: historic player in Otani, and you just and you still

670
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 2: can't figure out a way to win and even come close,

671
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 2: just to make the playoffs. You can't come you can't

672
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 2: come close. I mean any you're telling me people don't care.

673
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's not Listen, if you have an Angels

674
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 3: fan who wants to call in and tell me otherwise,

675
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,919
Speaker 3: that's fine. But yeah, I don't see the Angels fan

676
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 3: base as like a real great fan base to play

677
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 3: baseball in.

678
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 2: Uh.

679
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 3: You know, when you're in Los Angeles, you think Dodgers,

680
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 3: like I was saying, you go to Angels games to

681
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 3: kill time and enjoy or Friday night or Joey your evening.

682
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,879
Speaker 3: You're not going there to actually watch the baseball game.

683
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 3: Really really, I mean, I you know, unless.

684
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 2: I mean if you get a Friday night I here,

685
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 2: it is Friday night and you got Aany on the Mount, Like,

686
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 2: that's not a big deal.

687
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 3: Well, if you're a baseball fan, yeah, but if you're

688
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 3: just a casual like it's just a hangout play, it's

689
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:33,240
Speaker 3: it's really it. It's an Anaheim. You know, it's probably

690
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 3: not too much to do over there's Disneyland, right, but

691
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:38,879
Speaker 3: you know, it's it's.

692
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 2: Just a second citizens type of thing. It is. I'm

693
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,319
Speaker 2: not even not the Dodger or so, it's just that's

694
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:44,920
Speaker 2: just what it is.

695
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not even hating. It's just like the Clippers

696
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 3: with the Lakers or you know, yeah, it's definitely that

697
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 3: type of situation.

698
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah it is. It's interesting or you know, it's.

699
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 3: Funny rams that type of situation, Like nobody cheers for

700
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 3: the Charters.

701
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,560
Speaker 2: I know he graduates to Philip Rivers. By the way,

702
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 2: number ten, he's having his tenth child.

703
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 3: It's crazy, well much.

704
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 2: No, God bless I. I you know what, dude, that

705
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 2: I can I got. I got my hands full with two,

706
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 2: all right, I wouldn't know what to do with ten,

707
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 2: but I will tell you it's the greatest thing ever.

708
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 2: You know, you know you're gonna be able to run now,

709
00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 2: God bless him. He can afford the tent. The greatest

710
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 2: is that he could actually have his own football team

711
00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 2: and he's the quarterback.

712
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 1: That's true.

713
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,920

00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 2: growing up, I remember there were there were these families

732
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 2: and uh, these big Irish families and they would have

733
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 2: a ton of kids. There was there was the Gallaghers

734
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 2: on in South Philly right on the on eighteenth and Porter,

735
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:03,880

741
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 2: in South Philly, right it probably you know, if they

742
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:32,719
Speaker 2: were lucky, those those houses had one bathroom, right, so

743
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 2: you know, if they were lucky, I'm trying to remember

744
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,440
Speaker 2: if they had more, probably had one bathroom. Can you

745
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:44,239

748
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 2: sharing the bathroom. That's that's how it used to be.

783
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 2: that stuff?

784
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 3: Actually, my mom made me hitch your eyes.

00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:04,360
Speaker 2: You were getting ride get ye, that's great.

787
00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 3: Everybody hated me Like this guy just leaches on rides.

788
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 2: He's a he's kind of move the miller.

789
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 8: Uh.

790
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,480
Speaker 2: It's funny because I'm sure you know Mark Rode up

791
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:21,120
Speaker 2: in Chicago, you know, you rode your bike and you walked.

792
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 2: You you figured out a way to get there.

793
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,880
Speaker 1: I walked to baseball little League. I walked.

794
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:30,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah that was me too. And you you you

795
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:33,800
Speaker 2: up unto high school when you had a bus, you

796
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 2: you walked, you do whatever you could. And I look

797
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:41,919
Speaker 2: at nowadays, I mean, you know, the travel teams are

798
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 2: you know, funny because I mean we play, we play

799
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 2: these tournaments that are either out of sometimes are out

800
00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 2: of town, but regularly, you know, there's no riding your bike.

801
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:58,879
Speaker 2: I mean they're they're you know, hour away. We're we're

802
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 2: in these tournaments. We're going all over the place, a

803
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 2: couple hours in the car to get to.

804
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 1: Now my thing. When I was growing up, I was

805
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 1: in drum and bugle corps, so that would be different

806
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 1: than sports. But we would have to you know, show

807
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 1: up at our place and then practice and then when

808
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: we would have you know, something to play, we you know,

809
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,880
Speaker 1: get on the bus and we travel by bus to

810
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 1: the various places, you know, throughout the summer.

811
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. See that that's a that's.

812
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 1: More competition stuff. I mean, the same, you know, but

813
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:32,799
Speaker 1: it's just the same.

814
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 2: Listen, it's the same theory. Man, it really is, but

815
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,359
Speaker 2: we don't. You know, it's you know the kids now

816
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,479
Speaker 2: that these travel teams that they don't you know, it's

817
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 2: the parents. The commitment is once you're there, like it's

818
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 2: it's for the whole day. Like when we do a

819
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 2: lot because I do a lot of youth obviously with

820
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 2: the boys, we do all the sports. So you know,

821
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 2: when you do these baseball tournaments, I mean, that's your day.

822
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 2: Like fave is dead. We had a tournament that was

823
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 2: probably about an hour from my house, and you know,

824
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 2: you get there at whatever, it was eight o'clock in

825
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:12,279
Speaker 2: the morning, and I think I got home at you know,

826
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 2: seven o'clock at night. Like it's a you know, and

827
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 2: you do that Saturday, and you do that someday. It's

828
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:24,520
Speaker 2: a commitment. But I have to tell you it's the greatest.

829
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 2: I love it, and I really do.

830
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 1: It's the best kids grow up and learn how to.

831
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, you love all the kids and your roof forward.

832
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 2: I love ball, so you.

833
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 1: Know, taking they have their thoughts together just builds that

834
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,839
Speaker 1: confidence whatever, you know, what the sport is, or just

835
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 1: them being together and learning how to work together through sports,

836
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 1: which can translate to everything else.

837
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the best. Uh, all right,

838
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:57,719
Speaker 2: I want to get I want to open this up

839
00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:00,160
Speaker 2: a little bit. So I started the show off I

840
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:05,520
Speaker 2: was telling you guys about what it was like in Naples.

841
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 2: So I was in Naples, Italy, and they won the

842
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 2: Seria Championship on May fourth, and so up until you know,

843
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 2: this past week, the whole city was drenched in the

844
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:29,880
Speaker 2: colors of the of Monopoly soccer. And so the colors

845
00:51:29,920 --> 00:51:33,919
Speaker 2: were ever I mean streets, they had banners, they had

846
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,839
Speaker 2: these pictures like these, I mean these photos. I went

847
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 2: up one street and every every part on hanging from

848
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:50,480
Speaker 2: the middle of the street was a like picture of

849
00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:55,320
Speaker 2: one of the players. I mean literally there were shrines

850
00:51:56,400 --> 00:52:02,360
Speaker 2: to this team everywhere throughout the sty And all I

851
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 2: can think of was that's awesome, right, like sports, and

852
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:15,400
Speaker 2: in this case, their soccer team matters so deeply, it's

853
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:21,279
Speaker 2: so entrenched in the community. I mean, you want we

854
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:27,319
Speaker 2: went to a terrific restaurant and uh, I mean you

855
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 2: want to talk about Naples the birthplace of pizza. So

856
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 2: there there was a pizza eh, and it was I

857
00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 2: mean unbelievable, right, But the whole place is just you know,

858
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:42,800
Speaker 2: every every player I mean, you know, it's the de

859
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,399
Speaker 2: shrines everywhere. I mean, I'm just imagining. I'm thinking about

860
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 2: it now and I'm seeing it in my mind's eye

861
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,360
Speaker 2: telling the story, and I want to know. And I

862
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 2: guess Mark, you brought this up. And I think you're

863
00:52:55,880 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 2: pretty eloquent when you were talking about it that the

864
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 2: smaller the town, the greater the celebration, which makes sense

865
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:11,360
Speaker 2: because you know the harverybody's in right right? This town was,

866
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,680
Speaker 2: I mean, it was so it was so amazing, and

867
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 2: I want to open up the phone lines, and I

868
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:22,799
Speaker 2: wanted people to tell me what would be the closest

869
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 2: thing in your town, Like what would you say, which team,

870
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,840
Speaker 2: if they won, would have the town dressed like what?

871
00:53:33,080 --> 00:53:36,680
Speaker 2: Like I can only imagine, you know, comparing it to

872
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 2: it has to be closest to football. Now, my guess

873
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 2: is college football. Like I ranted some people from Nebraska

874
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 2: on the trip, and I actually had a Nebraska football

875
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,759
Speaker 2: t shirt on because my man, Matt Ruhle is going

876
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:58,320
Speaker 2: to turn around the Huskers, right, so I had uh

877
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 2: so it sent me. I got a boy, right, so

878
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 2: I have my the Brandon my Nebraska football shirt. And

879
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:10,000
Speaker 2: this woman and I was in the Vatican, right, and

880
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 2: then this woman comes up. Now I was in actually

881
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,520
Speaker 2: I'm sorry POMPEII, and this woman comes up and says,

882
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,680
Speaker 2: you are you from Nebraska? I said, now, I said,

883
00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 2: my buddies, the coach we were talking. She's like that,

884
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 2: we're all the big Husker family. And she's like, I

885
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 2: love the fact you're wearing that shirt. We love the Hoscars.

886
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:34,279
Speaker 2: So I imagine they have the longest cellar strict in

887
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:39,760
Speaker 2: college football. So I imagine that Lincoln and all throughout

888
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:44,520
Speaker 2: the state of Nebraska if the Huskars won, That's what

889
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:50,759
Speaker 2: it would be like, right, So college you could see it.

890
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:52,920
Speaker 3: That's all they know, Right, you.

891
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 2: Get your one team, right, you're you're you know you

892
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 2: go now. As much as they celebrate all the sports,

893
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:04,360
Speaker 2: it's about football. So eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox,

894
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 2: eight seven, seven and nine nine on Fox, that's how

895
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 2: you reach us. Tell us the closest thing to that, right,

896
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:21,640
Speaker 2: the closest thing to celebrating that one team that means

897
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 2: the most in your town, and that it would be

898
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:30,360
Speaker 2: dressed up everywhere, like you know, again, the colors everywhere,

899
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 2: tribute to the players everywhere, shrines everywhere. This is sports right,

900
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:39,000
Speaker 2: So tell us in your town eight seven, seven ninety

901

00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:54,360
Speaker 1: games and that's when I told the story about you know,

923
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 1: somebody had a bird on the first baseline and we

924
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,399
Speaker 1: were all screaming when the ushers told the guy, look,

927
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 1: I'll pay for the birds ticket. So that was Cup games,

00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 3: much about the history of soccer, to be honest, but

970
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 3: are they like supposed to be one of the better teams.

971
00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 2: Well, no, I mean one of the things honestly that

972
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 2: they that they have, they've only won three. I mean,

973
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,680
Speaker 2: they're good, but they've only won three in the in

974
00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 2: their history how many years?

975
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 3: I mean it must be like I can't even tell you.

976
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean in a long time. So they've won

977
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:08,760
Speaker 2: three and they haven't won since Maradona was there, got it?

978
01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 2: So you know you're talking about like it was a

979
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 2: big deal. I mean, they're not one of the the

980
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 2: normal you know, had this type of thing, right you.

981
01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 1: Know, I'm looking over Ethan's shoulder with the picture, I'm

982
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 1: going to say that kind of dedication and those kind

983
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 1: of flags up. America doesn't do that. That's more of

984
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:36,520
Speaker 1: a European that kind of dedication to their soccer, their

985
01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:42,400
Speaker 1: football team, versus what America does. Maybe a college town

986
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 1: has that kind of dedication to be in love and

987
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 1: love there's sports for that long, but not most American

988
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,000
Speaker 1: towns would do that. That kind of dedication.

989
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 2: You know what. It is interesting. You know, I still

990
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:06,480
Speaker 2: think depends where you're at, because I do think you'd

991
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 2: still say it, you know, still that you would still

992
01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 2: see it.

993
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 1: I think there's this stronger than ours. Then I don't know,

994
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 1: you well, I guess if you go to Michigan, the

995
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:21,160
Speaker 1: whole town would be the Michigan Colors every day week,

996
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 1: whether they right not. Ohio it would be you know, LSU,

997
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:31,920
Speaker 1: maybe college towns, Okay, flag stuff everywhere. But if it's

998
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: a professional team and the city has it, it would

999
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 1: last maybe a couple of weeks, and then it would

1000
01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:43,200
Speaker 1: slowly drift away. Like Ethan saying, you.

1001
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:44,880
Speaker 2: Know, I guess, I mean that's kind of what I

1002
01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:46,680
Speaker 2: want to, you know, talk to me. What is that

1003
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 2: one that one team that you would celebrate, you know,

1004
01:01:54,040 --> 01:02:02,200
Speaker 2: the championship. It's so interesting. Uh, let's do this. We'll

1011
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 4: what was most impressive about it is you almost fainted

1012
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 4: in the fifth inning. It took him talking to his

1013
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:29,720
Speaker 4: trainer and drinking some water for him to stay in,

1014
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:33,200
Speaker 4: but he managed to do so and pitched the Brewers

Speaker 8: I'm like, casino, what are you?

1074
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:42,960
Speaker 7: Blackjack made dice.

1075

Speaker 2: Oh you're craps love it? Oh yeah, very cool, very cool.

1076
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:52,960
Speaker 8: But yeah, man, we're still living in the Nights Championship

1077
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,360
Speaker 8: right now, dude, Like we're still getting tweets up, They're

1078
01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:58,200
Speaker 8: still dropping into just random restaurants around town with the

1079
01:05:58,280 --> 01:06:02,000
Speaker 8: cop just people are going to see the colors on

1080
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:05,960
Speaker 8: people's businesses. Still doing deals, you know, Friday all that

1081
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 8: stuff like that.

1082
01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:08,160
Speaker 2: That's awesome.

1083
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, oh yeah, they're loving it. I mean, we've

1084
01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 8: only been around for six years, but you know, what

1085
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,760
Speaker 8: we lack in history, we make up for in passion,

1086
01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:19,400
Speaker 8: you know, because we've been so close ever since we

1087
01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:23,000
Speaker 8: came in and it finally just cress over and hit that.

1088
01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:25,640
Speaker 8: I mean, it's it's just been wild for the past.

1089
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 2: You know.

1090
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,840
Speaker 7: However, what let me.

1091
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 2: Ask you a question, because I'm fascinated by the Knights, right,

1092
01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:35,720
Speaker 2: I'm fascinated by the reaction of Vegas to the Knights.

1093
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 2: What made them so special was because it was the first,

1094
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:43,600
Speaker 2: you know, the truly the first you know, sports franchise

1095
01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:47,680
Speaker 2: to come into town. Because you're right, like the passion

1096
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:52,520
Speaker 2: is awesome, Like those games are incredible, you know what

1097
01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:52,920
Speaker 2: it is?

1098
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 8: I think it's the fact that for six years, everyone

1099
01:06:56,280 --> 01:07:00,960
Speaker 8: told us that we're kind of crazy. Our team. You know,

1100
01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,640
Speaker 8: we got there and everyone's like, don't expect anything. It's

1101
01:07:03,640 --> 01:07:07,240
Speaker 8: an expansion team. Just don't expect to win. Well, we

1102
01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 8: started winning, and everyone said, don't worry, that's not going

1103
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 8: to last. You guys are hot, It's okay. And then

1104
01:07:13,200 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 8: we get to the Stanley Cup and they're like, don't worry,

1105
01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 8: you're not going to win, and we didn't, and then

1106
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:18,920
Speaker 8: they kind of relished in that. I said, we knew

1107
01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:20,800
Speaker 8: you couldn't win the Stanley Cup first year. There's no

1108
01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:23,200
Speaker 8: way possible. And ever since then, we've kind of been

1109
01:07:23,240 --> 01:07:25,280
Speaker 8: playing with this chip on our shoulder like we're these

1110
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:30,160
Speaker 8: misfits were or whatever. Teams were trading us people to

1111
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:33,800
Speaker 8: take people like we were doubling up on deals just

1112
01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,440
Speaker 8: so they can get rid of these players, and we

1113
01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:39,440
Speaker 8: turned these guys into Stanley Cup champions. And I think

1114
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 8: that we're just really relishing in the fact. For six

1115
01:07:41,880 --> 01:07:45,440
Speaker 8: years everyone just told us, like, just slow down, temper

1116
01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:47,640
Speaker 8: your expectations. You're not going to go anywhere. You need

1117
01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:49,919
Speaker 8: to earn your spot here, and we kind of proved

1118
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 8: them wrong, and we love it for that and we're

1119
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:53,080
Speaker 8: just relishing in that.

1120
01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 2: That's so you're still so I love it. So two

1121
01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:58,800
Speaker 2: months later or not, you know, you guys, the month later,

1122
01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:04,320
Speaker 2: you guys are still freaking out celebrating. And that's cool, man.

1123
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:06,160
Speaker 2: I love that. That's a good story.

1124
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:10,000
Speaker 8: Yeah. I still walk down you walk down Fremont on

1125
01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:11,600
Speaker 8: my way to work in and out, and I just

1126
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 8: see people two people with Stanley Cup jerseys just no

1127
01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:16,519
Speaker 8: know each other, but then they just started, you know,

01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:17,519
Speaker 8: just loving it.

01:08:20,439 --> 01:08:23,599
Speaker 2: That's a great, great call, man, Thank you, my brother.

01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,479

Speaker 2: what's the championship that will last? And I could totally

1134
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:42,679
Speaker 2: see that. I totally see that. First of all, those

1135
01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:48,120
Speaker 2: games in Vegas are awesome, right, Like, dude, I mean,

1136
01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:52,040
Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but I love to watch

1137
01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:54,880
Speaker 2: those games because the fans they make it. I mean

1138
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:58,920
Speaker 2: they're you know that pregame show is crazy show, like

1139
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:00,360
Speaker 2: those games are like if events.

1140
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:02,680
Speaker 3: No, I agree, And I was gonna ask him. I

1141
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 3: actually forgot to ask him where like the fan base

1142
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:09,479
Speaker 3: is like from is it from the suburbs? Are they

1143
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:13,439
Speaker 3: coming from a distance? Like, because they're new. The hockey

1144
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 3: teams new, the football team's new. You know, the baseball

1145
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 3: team's about to be there in five years. So I'm

1146
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:23,760
Speaker 3: just wondering, since there's a new fan base, where where

1147
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:25,040
Speaker 3: in Vegas are they all coming?

1148
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:25,639
Speaker 1: Is it all over?

1149
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,639
Speaker 2: You know? You know it's funny because Vegas is spread

1150
01:09:28,680 --> 01:09:29,439
Speaker 2: out right, you know.

1151
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:31,760
Speaker 3: You don't think that when they think Vegas are just

1152
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:32,720
Speaker 3: thinking a strip.

1153
01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:36,000
Speaker 2: Right, Well, you know, you know, people need to live right,

1154
01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:39,960
Speaker 2: so you have on the outskirts of the strip. I

1155
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:43,599
Speaker 2: have dear friend of mine lives out there and he's

1156
01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:47,920
Speaker 2: at the base. Like his neighborhood is like the base

1157
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:52,200
Speaker 2: of a mountain, right, it's all red, like the red

1158
01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:56,240
Speaker 2: you know, you know, the that red.

1159
01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:59,280
Speaker 1: Dirt that leads up living out there.

1160
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:03,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got a beautiful home, you know, a beautiful neighborhood.

1161
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,320
Speaker 2: It's just I can imagine how I mean. I saw

1162
01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 2: the heat advisories.

1163
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, there's one hundred and thirty one degrees this weekend.

1164
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,120
Speaker 3: You know that it's like the record high in Death Valley.

1165
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:18,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that. That's crazy it's nuts, but that

1166
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:22,280
Speaker 2: night's thing is exactly kind of what I was expecting,

1167
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,719
Speaker 2: what I was hoping for. Let me get the Dwayne

1168
01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:30,679
Speaker 2: in Detroit, another great sports town, Dwayne, what's happening? Brother?

1169
01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:32,400
Speaker 10: Hey, what's going on?

1170
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 2: Good morning to y'all, Good morning to you, baby.

1171
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 10: So you know, I'm forty five years old and I've

1172
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:45,000
Speaker 10: seen a lot of greatness during my years of watching

1173
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:50,160
Speaker 10: sports in this town. I've seen Isaiah Thomas say the

1174
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:55,160
Speaker 10: Pistons won two championships. I saw another. I saw another

1175
01:10:55,280 --> 01:10:57,160
Speaker 10: with Chelsea Billips and Ben Wallace.

1176
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 2: Of course, yeah, I.

1177
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:00,760
Speaker 9: Saw Steve Eisaman save the Reds. They were called the

1178
01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:01,479
Speaker 9: dead Wings.

1179
01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 5: At first, I thought I've seen I've seen Kurt Gibson,

1180
01:11:07,720 --> 01:11:08,360
Speaker 5: check Lemon.

1181
01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,599
Speaker 9: You know a lot of those guys from nineteens win

1182
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:12,360
Speaker 9: a championship.

1183
01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:16,479
Speaker 10: But when I tell you, I've seen nothing from the

1184
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:21,880
Speaker 10: Detroit Lions. I saw one playoff victory, Barry Sanders and

1185
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:26,040
Speaker 10: all his greatness, Calvin Johnson all his greatness, Matthew Stafford

1186
01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 10: and all the yards and touchdown he's a mask. They

1187
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:31,760
Speaker 10: only won one playoff.

1188
01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 6: Game, just one.

1189
01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,760
Speaker 10: So could you imagine if the Detroit Lions won the.

1190
01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:40,680
Speaker 9: Super Bowl, that one would last. Yeah, I would say

1191
01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:46,120
Speaker 9: probably thirty years, twenty to thirty years now when the

1192
01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,840
Speaker 9: when the Pistons are garbage, nobody goes to games when

1193
01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:53,240
Speaker 9: the real Wings are garbage. You can see seats when

1194
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:55,640
Speaker 9: the Sanders are garbage. You can see seats when the

1195
01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:58,160
Speaker 9: when the Lions were garbage, th seats stayed.

1196
01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:00,920
Speaker 10: Fully, they never.

1197
01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:04,120
Speaker 9: Had that stadium empty, whether it was in Pontiac or

1198
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,439
Speaker 9: whether it was downtown when they moved and uh downtown

1199
01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:07,640
Speaker 9: to No.

1200
01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:08,400
Speaker 7: Three h four.

1201
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:11,479
Speaker 10: But if the Lions won the Super Bowl, I'm telling you.

1202
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:16,639
Speaker 9: This city, that would bring all I mean Piston fans Lions. Yeah,

1203
01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:20,040
Speaker 9: we're not on the sames.

1204
01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:20,320
Speaker 11: To when it comes to other teams.

1205
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:24,720
Speaker 10: So the Lions, the football is king everybody. Everybody loves

1206
01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 10: the Lions.

1207
01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,439
Speaker 12: Everybody, so everybody, let me ask you questions.

1208
01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:34,280
Speaker 2: What's it like now going into this season because expectations

1209
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:37,800
Speaker 2: through the roof. I mean that that's a good team.

1210
01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:44,479
Speaker 2: They got a terrific front, weapons everywhere on offense. I mean,

1211
01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 2: you know the way you end the season strong? Are

1212
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:50,160
Speaker 2: people geeked up or watch for the season.

1213
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 9: Let me tell you something. Before last year I came

1214
01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:58,240
Speaker 9: back around to the Lions. I roomed for the Lions

1215
01:12:58,280 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 9: in ten years.

1216
01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 6: I said, you know what, I'm tired of it.

1217
01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:03,559
Speaker 9: You know, they went ten and six, They went ten

1218
01:13:03,640 --> 01:13:06,160
Speaker 9: and six, went to the playoffs, and then the next

1219
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:07,439
Speaker 9: year they went four and twelve.

1220
01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 10: I say, you know what, I'm tired of this. I'm

1221
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:12,519
Speaker 10: tired of this reverse psychology garbage they throwing us.

1222
01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,559
Speaker 9: But I'm gonna tell you something. For the first time

1223
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 9: in years, the Lions are predicted to win the division.

1224
01:13:19,600 --> 01:13:21,639
Speaker 6: They are they they should.

1225
01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:24,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like them division.

1226
01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:28,600
Speaker 10: Yeah, they are hyped up in this town because they

1227
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:29,519
Speaker 10: really feel like.

1228
01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:30,679
Speaker 12: They've made the moves.

1229
01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:33,040
Speaker 11: They they have the Pixie.

1230
01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:35,479
Speaker 10: They don't go for the flashy picks anymore.

1231
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 6: They go for substance.

1232
01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:39,960
Speaker 10: They go for what's going to move the needle. Offensive line,

1233
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:42,559
Speaker 10: defensive line. That's why the running game is so damn good.

1234
01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:47,280
Speaker 9: Put any running back behind that line and like Jamal

1235
01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:48,839
Speaker 9: Wells we had touchdown.

1236
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:51,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's going.

1237
01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:53,000
Speaker 10: He's gonna look terrible in New Wallesy.

1238
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 9: I'm just letting y'all know this now, but I want

1239
01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,080
Speaker 9: to I want to take your time.

1240
01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:01,479
Speaker 2: But yeah, I love it, I love it. I totally

1241
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:05,920
Speaker 2: love I dead cool man Dwayne, great call man, Thank you, brother.

1242
01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:10,800
Speaker 2: That's a dad's I can totally see that that team,

1243
01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:14,639
Speaker 2: and that's a team that if you're a football fan,

1244
01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:17,960
Speaker 2: that's a team that you go. I like to see

1245
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:21,080
Speaker 2: them win. Like there was the way they ended the

1246
01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 2: season and they beat Green Bay. It was like a

1247
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:28,800
Speaker 2: Sunday night. It was you know, I'm sitting there just

1248
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:33,599
Speaker 2: I found myself, you know, rooting for them, and they're

1249
01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:38,000
Speaker 2: They're a fun team. They're going to be good. I

1250
01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:41,320
Speaker 2: just says a football fan. I like to see I

1251
01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,400
Speaker 2: like to see them win. And I think they're gonna

1252
01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:47,760
Speaker 2: win a division. You got questions everywhere else, right this

1253
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:51,000
Speaker 2: Minnesota is gonna be second, But you still got questions there.

1254
01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:54,479
Speaker 2: I don't know where. You know, can they stop anybody?

1255
01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:58,720
Speaker 2: You got Green Bay, you got Detroit, I mean, you

1256
01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:02,479
Speaker 2: got you got Chicago. I will see if Justin Fields

1257
01:15:02,920 --> 01:15:04,840
Speaker 2: can make, you know, his kind of leap. But I

1258
01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:08,479
Speaker 2: think the Lions are most complete team in that division.

1259
01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:10,800
Speaker 2: All right, we'll come back eight.

1260
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:17,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm fired up or football fired up?

1261
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:23,240
Speaker 2: Well, I thank you, buddy. I'm glad you are here here.

1262
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,559

1270
01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 2: the Vegas Knights and the Detroit Allons because I'm telling

1271
01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:59,800
Speaker 2: the story about being in Naples and the whole city

1272
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:05,120

Speaker 2: two really cool calls that you know, the Vegas night

1275
01:16:21,120 --> 01:16:25,360
Speaker 2: thing when you would watch that, I couldn't wait to

1276
01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:28,360
Speaker 2: kind of like doing the plot, like I like the

1277
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:33,679
Speaker 2: Nashville had the same thing where they celebrate the game,

1278
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:37,799
Speaker 2: like that's what's cool about it. And then Dwayne spot

1279
01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:42,760
Speaker 2: On with the Lions, God forbid the Lions ever win.

1280
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:46,439
Speaker 2: I could say it. I could tell I think you

01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:51,360
Speaker 2: got I think he spot On it would last. So

1282
01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:57,600
Speaker 2: Naples had gone since nineteen ninety Maridona won it and

1283
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:00,280
Speaker 2: not and he I'm telling you, he's like a deity there.

1334
01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:11,240
Speaker 2: the culture of the city. And I was telling the

1335
01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:16,120
Speaker 2: story about you know, Naples, Italy and being in Naples,

1336

1338
01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:27,160
Speaker 2: you can imagine, right, the town went wild. I was

1339
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:33,360
Speaker 2: talking to people about it, and the people were They

1340
01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:37,160
Speaker 2: went like a week and nobody worked, nobody went to school,

1341
01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:42,640
Speaker 2: and all they did was just party. Like they just celebrated,

1342
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:48,640
Speaker 2: you know, eating, eating and drinking and then celebrating and

1343
01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:52,560
Speaker 2: smiles and jovial parties and all kinds of things. Like

1344
01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:55,240
Speaker 2: the whole town is very festive, right, and they have

1345
01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:59,080
Speaker 2: their ice cream and you know they're everybody's excited and

1346
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:01,760
Speaker 2: did it for a whole week and and and here

1347
01:21:01,840 --> 01:21:05,720
Speaker 2: I am going. I was there, you know, last week,

1348
01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:11,679
Speaker 2: and two months later, the town is still still bathed

1349
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:17,679
Speaker 2: in the colors of this team. In fact, I tweeted

1350
01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:20,160
Speaker 2: a picture around You can follow me at Anthony L.

1351
01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:26,280
Speaker 2: Gargano on Twitter Anthony Lewis Gargano on Instagram, and you

1352
01:21:26,439 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 2: could you could there were still some of the pictures

1353
01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:31,920
Speaker 2: of the players, you know, hanging up on the on

1354
01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:35,880
Speaker 2: the walls and the streets, the tiny streets connected by

1355
01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:40,600
Speaker 2: all this fanfare. And I just imagined that in the

1356
01:21:40,920 --> 01:21:44,840
Speaker 2: like what what what town and bringing it back to us,

1357
01:21:46,160 --> 01:21:51,360
Speaker 2: what town would celebrate like that for what team? And

1358
01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 2: so we had a couple of great calls that we

1359
01:21:53,560 --> 01:21:57,320
Speaker 2: had the Vegas Knights, which won it, right, they won

1360
01:21:57,400 --> 01:22:00,479
Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup this year. So we had a great

1361
01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:04,200
Speaker 2: guy calling and he was talking about the parties are

1362
01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:08,000
Speaker 2: still popping up and they're having Knights specials and all

1363
01:22:08,120 --> 01:22:11,400
Speaker 2: kinds of things, and that town and Las Vegas they

1364
01:22:11,680 --> 01:22:14,880
Speaker 2: really got behind the Knights. And then we had another

1365
01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:19,120
Speaker 2: call with Dwayne talking about the Lions and he's like, dude,

1366
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:22,920
Speaker 2: because I saw, you know, iermen win the Cup, and

1367
01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:27,000
Speaker 2: I saw the Tigers win it in eighty four, and

1368
01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:31,640
Speaker 2: I saw the Pistons and Isaiah Thomas and later with

1369
01:22:32,439 --> 01:22:35,400
Speaker 2: with Rip Hamilton and Ben wils and I saw them

1370
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:39,040
Speaker 2: then win it. He said, but nothing like the Lions. Nothing,

1371
01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:43,760
Speaker 2: So imagine if they won a Super Bowl what it

1372
01:22:43,800 --> 01:22:47,800
Speaker 2: would be like. So that's the question, is what would

1373
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:52,240
Speaker 2: be the in your town? Provide something as close to that.

1374

Speaker 6: It's gonna be hard.

1384
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:23,599
Speaker 14: My son died last year and he was a big

1385
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:29,400
Speaker 14: brave fan. I used to watch at the Atlanta Folton

1386
01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:34,000
Speaker 14: County Stadium. You know those Cooks sh stadiums. Yeah, Philadelphia

1387
01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:35,400
Speaker 14: had one, Cincinnati had one.

1388
01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:36,840
Speaker 7: They were all over the country.

1389
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:42,080
Speaker 14: Used to watch Hank Aaron and the Boys Rico Party.

1390
01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:48,439
Speaker 14: Hank Aaron, who was a third basement he's now I

1391
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:52,280
Speaker 14: think he's a manager for the Astros.

1392
01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:54,839
Speaker 2: Anyway.

1393
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:58,920
Speaker 14: So the point is, my daughter and I bought tickets

1394
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:01,479
Speaker 14: to see see they played the Rays.

1395
01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:02,679
Speaker 6: Now, it's not quite.

1396
01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:08,080
Speaker 14: A city or a town all dressed up, but I

1397
01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:10,360
Speaker 14: figured my son was with us. We both got our

1398
01:24:10,960 --> 01:24:14,720
Speaker 14: T shirts on. I had a shirt that his mother,

1399
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,880
Speaker 14: my first wife, had bought for him and I championship

1400
01:24:18,960 --> 01:24:22,840
Speaker 14: T shirts from twenty twenty one. I'm sure you're yes, yes,

1401
01:24:23,040 --> 01:24:26,320
Speaker 14: sure we were there and here we are in Florida.

1402
01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:29,519
Speaker 14: And you guys remember it was a time where there

1403
01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:33,639
Speaker 14: was no Florida Baseball, right, No, everything everything was Braves

1404
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,200
Speaker 14: and so they had the superstation.

1405
01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:37,360
Speaker 2: Yeah TBS.

1406
01:24:37,520 --> 01:24:41,040
Speaker 14: Sure, yeah, So here we were the top two teams

1407
01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:44,800
Speaker 14: in about a week before last weekend. We went and

1408
01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:48,240
Speaker 14: watched the six to one win over the Rays Sat.

1409
01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:52,720
Speaker 14: Saturday night, and sure enough, one hundred and sixty six strikeouts.

1410
01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:55,720
Speaker 14: Now Spencer Strider kicked ass. He had eleven strikeouts in

1411
01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:56,040
Speaker 14: the game.

1412
01:24:56,200 --> 01:25:01,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, there were people doing the tomahaw chop. I'm saying

1413
01:25:01,680 --> 01:25:07,560
Speaker 12: sixty five percent. I think maybe we're Braves fans.

1414
01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:13,040
Speaker 2: At Yeah, for sure. Sure.

1415
01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:16,720
Speaker 14: And so we were on top of the world and

1416
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:19,640
Speaker 14: taking pictures and we had a I don't know if

1417
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:22,880
Speaker 14: you happen to catch this. I talked to Ben Maller

1418
01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:26,320
Speaker 14: because it was really touching. About a year ago when

1419
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:29,799
Speaker 14: this happened. Casey, my dear son died of a heart attack,

1420
01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:32,360
Speaker 14: and I talked to him about it. He says, Kevin,

1421
01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:34,479
Speaker 14: guess what that date is.

1422
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:40,040
Speaker 7: It's my birthday. Now we're talking on the.

1423
01:25:40,120 --> 01:25:42,040
Speaker 14: Raddit on the phone. And so he said, call me

1424
01:25:42,120 --> 01:25:44,000
Speaker 14: back after you go to the game. So I called

1425
01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:46,760
Speaker 14: him back This past Monday night. He says, he knew

1426
01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:48,760
Speaker 14: about it before I even opened my mouth. He knew

1427
01:25:48,760 --> 01:25:51,519
Speaker 14: about that. The extra special treat we all got was

1428
01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:55,400
Speaker 14: this kid who later everybody found out if you looked

1429
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:59,600
Speaker 14: on Google on your phone, he was dared by his

1430
01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:03,800
Speaker 14: uncle and he was probably juiced up, too drunk to

1431
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:04,720
Speaker 14: run on the field for.

1432
01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:07,519
Speaker 5: One hundred dollars well, probably doing to jail for a.

1433
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:11,360
Speaker 14: Year and twenty five thousand dollars fine and uh being

1434
01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:16,600
Speaker 14: banned per a year from Tampa Bay Stadium. But reminded

1435
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:20,200
Speaker 14: me of just all the time that I waited for

1436
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:26,960
Speaker 14: three years Anthony watching on the superstation, watching them get

1437
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:31,559
Speaker 14: beat by the who was that it was his twins,

1438
01:26:32,280 --> 01:26:35,000
Speaker 14: That was the Blue Days, And then the next year

1439
01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:37,000
Speaker 14: we beat the Cleveland Indians.

1440
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:40,879
Speaker 2: You remember that I covered I actually was a reporter.

1441
01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:44,120
Speaker 2: I covered baseball in New York and I was at

1442
01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:47,120
Speaker 2: that series. That was an incredible series. That was the

1443
01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 2: Albert Bell and Maddy Ramirez Cleveland team that the Braves beaten,

1444
01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:56,800
Speaker 2: and that was I was amazing. Glavin had small sy

1445
01:26:57,320 --> 01:27:01,639
Speaker 2: and you know what addiction one.

1446
01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:03,960
Speaker 14: Of the greatest trios of all time.

1447
01:27:05,280 --> 01:27:06,800
Speaker 2: Oh, definitely, without a doubt.

1448
01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:09,519
Speaker 14: So thank you for letting me share that with you.

1449
01:27:09,640 --> 01:27:10,960
Speaker 2: And I'm glad you did.

1450
01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:14,160
Speaker 14: My brother, my son lived on here and I really

1451
01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:14,800
Speaker 14: appreciate you.

1452
01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:19,360
Speaker 2: God bless you, buddy. And he does and he's with you, man,

1453
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:22,960
Speaker 2: he's with you in spirit. And that's what sports does.

1454
01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:27,479
Speaker 2: And thank you because it's a it's so important because

1455
01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:31,320
Speaker 2: what we're talking about. You know, when I bring up this,

1456
01:27:32,120 --> 01:27:35,480
Speaker 2: you know, having been in Naples and and them celebrating

1457
01:27:35,560 --> 01:27:38,680
Speaker 2: like that, and and that's that's what it is. It's

1458
01:27:38,800 --> 01:27:42,599
Speaker 2: really connecting all of us. So when you know, here

1459
01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:45,519
Speaker 2: he tells the story about his son, in my heart,

1460
01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:48,599
Speaker 2: you know that like that losing a child, I mean,

1461
01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 2: I just my heart goes out to your brother. And

1462
01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:55,519
Speaker 2: you know the fact that they shared their love of

1463
01:27:55,640 --> 01:28:00,800
Speaker 2: the Braves. You know, that's that's truly what it is. Yeah,

1464
01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:04,960
Speaker 2: that connection and whether it's a whole town or whether

1465
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:07,640
Speaker 2: it's a father and a son and here he is

1466
01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:12,000
Speaker 2: with his daughter going to the Braves game and making

1467
01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:15,880
Speaker 2: the you know, making his son's legacy live on. You know,

1468
01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:19,200
Speaker 2: that's beautiful, man. And that's that's kind of how I've

1469
01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:22,400
Speaker 2: always wanted to look at at sports because I think

1470
01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:26,640
Speaker 2: there's it's something that's just it's important to us. We

1471
01:28:26,880 --> 01:28:31,600
Speaker 2: need that, you know, that's something like that is it's profound,

1472
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:34,880
Speaker 2: and we need that in our lives. We got enough

1473
01:28:35,320 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 2: you know, headaches, right, We need something that can make us,

1474
01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:43,840
Speaker 2: you know, give us some joy, also provide us with

1475
01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:47,960
Speaker 2: you know, allows us to be a little reflective, you know,

1476
01:28:48,120 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 2: and and something that organically brings us together. You know,

1477
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:59,400
Speaker 2: if Dwayne and Detroit gets his wish and the Lions win, well,

1478
01:29:00,040 --> 01:29:02,360
Speaker 2: you know, you can imagine that whole city coming together

1479
01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:06,360
Speaker 2: and we you know, and sometimes listen, we as media,

1480
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 2: and I was a newspaper reporter for a long time,

1481
01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:15,400
Speaker 2: but we as media, you know, we focus sometimes too

1482
01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:20,519
Speaker 2: much entirely on the negative, which I don't like because

1483
01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:22,880
Speaker 2: it does send the wrong message. Like when you know,

1484
01:29:23,360 --> 01:29:29,280
Speaker 2: there's a there's a celebration for a championship, and you

1485
01:29:29,360 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 2: know you can almost see the stories, well there was

1486
01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:38,080
Speaker 2: a car set on fire, and yeah, does that need

1487
01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:44,400
Speaker 2: to be reported, of course, But for the most part,

1488
01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:52,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure in most celebrations that that's the minority. It's

1489
01:29:52,240 --> 01:29:55,200
Speaker 2: just a tiny piece of it. The truth of the matter,

1490
01:29:55,400 --> 01:29:58,840
Speaker 2: when you celebrate everybody congregates in the streets, is that

1491
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:06,960
Speaker 2: of It is just unadulterated luff among people, and it's

1492
01:30:07,439 --> 01:30:13,040
Speaker 2: this shared experience when the team wins and you know,

1493
01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:17,400
Speaker 2: you can see the headlines, well the celebration marred bye whatever.

1494
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:23,720
Speaker 2: You know, it's an important thing and you get it.

1495
01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:28,160
Speaker 2: I mean, you know you you saw it in Chicago, Mark,

1496
01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,519
Speaker 2: I mean you saw it. You saw those people come

1497
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:33,200
Speaker 2: together in unbridled joy.

1498
01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:38,599
Speaker 1: When the Blackhawks went. Oh, the city was just red.

1499
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:44,560
Speaker 1: All the jerseys were everywhere. Downtown Michigan Avenue had everybody

1500
01:30:44,640 --> 01:30:47,840
Speaker 1: come down. It was just a great, great day. And

1501
01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:50,280
Speaker 1: then for them to do it like three times and

1502
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:53,759
Speaker 1: you know a certain span that was just great for Chicago.

1503
01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:55,160
Speaker 1: And then when the Cubs did.

1504
01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:57,400
Speaker 2: It just well, that's the thing I want to ask

1505
01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:58,840
Speaker 2: you about when the Cubs.

1506
01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:01,160
Speaker 1: Was like because it was so so long ago with

1507
01:31:01,280 --> 01:31:05,160
Speaker 1: all the Billy Goat stuff and that history behind them

1508
01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:08,880
Speaker 1: losing and the various reasons. You know, when the Cubs went,

1509
01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:11,639
Speaker 1: that was the biggest deal. That would be like hopefully

1510
01:31:11,760 --> 01:31:15,800
Speaker 1: when Detroit finds a way to win, But when the

1511
01:31:15,880 --> 01:31:17,760
Speaker 1: Cubs went, it was a great, big deal.

1512
01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:22,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I gotta tell you, I can only imagine

1513
01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:27,600
Speaker 2: the history of the Cubs and the losers, lovable losers

1514
01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:30,400
Speaker 2: and all that stuff. And they they will they will

1515
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:33,840
Speaker 2: never win. I'll never forgot. I was covering them because

1516
01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:37,519
Speaker 2: I lived in Chicago for a brief period and they

1517
01:31:37,680 --> 01:31:39,839
Speaker 2: went to like a wild card.

1518
01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:43,479
Speaker 1: Game against the Padres right right right, and.

1519
01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:46,599
Speaker 2: It was a playoff for it was a playoff walker

1520
01:31:47,240 --> 01:31:51,120
Speaker 2: and it were going nuts for this playoff game.

1521
01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:54,160
Speaker 1: I was at a function during that game, and the

1522
01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 1: speaker at the function was giving us updates from the radio.

1523
01:31:57,520 --> 01:31:59,920
Speaker 2: It was just great, Ah, that's fabulous. No, I could

1524
01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:02,720
Speaker 2: all you imagine and then and then imagine this. Like

1525
01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:07,080
Speaker 2: one of the great stories I think in the history

1526
01:32:07,120 --> 01:32:13,680
Speaker 2: of sports was the Bartman play in the in the

1527
01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:15,919

1671
01:41:03,600 --> 01:41:08,120
Speaker 2: to stop the run. And Mahomes just checked it every time.

1672

1680
01:41:34,320 --> 01:41:34,960
Speaker 2: on my list.

1681
01:41:35,640 --> 01:41:37,080
Speaker 1: Watch an episode with the boys.

1682
01:41:37,880 --> 01:41:41,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, good, good call by you?

1683
01:41:41,479 --> 01:41:44,040
Speaker 1: Ye, really good. They did a great job.

1684
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:47,479
Speaker 3: I'm shocked, like really, yeah, it's it's up there.

1685
01:41:48,120 --> 01:41:51,400
Speaker 2: You favor tell me about it. But just first, let's

1686
01:41:51,439 --> 01:41:54,599
Speaker 2: let's get it. Let's get Kevin with some trending cool. Yeah.

1687
01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:57,559
Speaker 4: Major League Baseball coming back from the All Star break.

1688
01:41:57,680 --> 01:42:00,320
Speaker 4: On Friday in the National League Central Show Down to

1689
01:42:00,360 --> 01:42:06,400
Speaker 4: the top two teams, Corbin Burns with thirteen strikeouts as

1690
01:42:06,479 --> 01:42:08,479
Speaker 4: he pitched into the sixth sitting, the Brewers beating the

1691
01:42:08,560 --> 01:42:10,880
Speaker 4: Reds won nothing. It wasn't the thirteen strikeouts that was

1692
01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:14,640
Speaker 4: remarkable is the fact that he almost fainted in the

1693
01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:16,840
Speaker 4: fifth inning because of the high heat and humidity, but

1694
01:42:16,960 --> 01:42:19,320
Speaker 4: he managed to stay in the game, drink some water,

1695
01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:22,599
Speaker 4: and would go into the sixth sitting as the Brewers

1696
01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:26,040
Speaker 4: win it to get themselves tied for the lead in

1697
01:42:26,160 --> 01:42:30,160
Speaker 4: the National League Central. The Braves continue their strong season.

1698
01:42:30,200 --> 01:42:32,160
Speaker 4: They beat the White Sox nine to nothing. Same for

1699
01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:34,680
Speaker 4: the Rangers. They were one of the surprise teams this year,

1700
01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:38,559
Speaker 4: and they continue as they start the second second half

1701
01:42:38,640 --> 01:42:40,960
Speaker 4: of the season on a strong note. Twelve to four.

1702
01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:44,439
Speaker 4: They beat the Guardians. The Dodgers another strong debut on

1703
01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:47,040
Speaker 4: the second half of the season. They beat the Mets

1704
01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:50,120
Speaker 4: six nothing, Julio Rias allowing one hit in one walk

1705
01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:54,080
Speaker 4: in the six innings of war. Clayton Kershaw is gonna

1706
01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:55,960
Speaker 4: be out a few more weeks. He said he won't

1707
01:42:56,000 --> 01:42:58,400
Speaker 4: start until early August, so the Dodgers hoping they can

1708
01:42:58,439 --> 01:43:01,479
Speaker 4: get more of that from Uri blue Jay's top the

1709
01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:04,639
Speaker 4: Diamondbacks seven to two, Giants hold off the Pirates six

1710
01:43:04,760 --> 01:43:07,599
Speaker 4: to four, and the Orioles beat the Marlins five to two.

1711
01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:10,720
Speaker 4: Padres they take down the Phillies eight to three, a

1712
01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:13,439
Speaker 4: couple of scores from the West Coast. Tigers edge the

1713
01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:16,200
Speaker 4: Mariners five to four, twins over the Athletics five to four.

1714
01:43:16,360 --> 01:43:19,920
Speaker 4: The Angels to begin the second half set Schoeyo Tani

1715
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,320
Speaker 4: to the mound, but he proved to be human, giving

1716
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:25,720
Speaker 4: up four runs as he takes the loss. The Astros win.

1717
01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:29,320
Speaker 4: It's seven to five. And in Wimbledon, we've got the

1718

1724
01:43:58,080 --> 01:44:02,960
Speaker 2: with this because I've been here. It got great reviews. Quarterback. Yeah,

1725
01:44:03,280 --> 01:44:05,000
Speaker 2: the Netflix series.

1726
01:44:04,960 --> 01:44:09,240
Speaker 3: It's as good as you know, the twenty four to

1727
01:44:09,320 --> 01:44:10,680
Speaker 3: seven hockey series.

1728
01:44:10,439 --> 01:44:11,920
Speaker 2: They do, yeah, which is really good.

1729
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:14,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's as good as that. Like they go into

1730
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:19,720
Speaker 3: their lives like outside of football. They show you how

1731
01:44:19,840 --> 01:44:22,320
Speaker 3: my home, like they show you all Kirk Cousins, like

1732
01:44:23,080 --> 01:44:26,519
Speaker 3: how he goes through every single day of like before

1733
01:44:26,680 --> 01:44:29,240
Speaker 3: a game, after a game, like he was talking about

1734
01:44:29,280 --> 01:44:31,960
Speaker 3: how his hand is bruised after a game, can't even

1735
01:44:32,040 --> 01:44:35,720
Speaker 3: open doors, and by Wednesday he's throwing the football and

1736
01:44:35,880 --> 01:44:38,240
Speaker 3: Sunday he forgot he had an injury. It's just crazy

1737
01:44:38,360 --> 01:44:42,000
Speaker 3: that you kind of just go into their lives and

1738
01:44:42,120 --> 01:44:46,400
Speaker 3: it's really really cool because it's cousins and Mahomes and

1739
01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:52,040
Speaker 3: Mariota and it's like, yeah, you forget that, well you

1740
01:44:52,080 --> 01:44:55,519
Speaker 3: don't forget, but the Falcons stunk last season, right, and

1741
01:44:55,920 --> 01:44:57,920
Speaker 3: you're just like you want to root for the kid.

1742
01:44:58,040 --> 01:45:00,760
Speaker 3: You're like, come on, you know. It's like yeah, you're

1743
01:45:00,800 --> 01:45:03,479
Speaker 3: just like you feel like you're into it. It's it's

1744
01:45:03,600 --> 01:45:06,960
Speaker 3: really good. It's really good for Netflix and and football itself.

1745
01:45:06,960 --> 01:45:09,600
Speaker 2: It's a good storytelling. I love. Like, to me, we

1746
01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:12,799
Speaker 2: haven't had enough good football storytelling. It's why it's funny.

1747
01:45:13,200 --> 01:45:16,760
Speaker 2: But Hard Knocks, which everybody bitches and moans about because

1748
01:45:16,760 --> 01:45:19,560
Speaker 2: nobody wants the cameras in there, but and I get it,

1749
01:45:20,120 --> 01:45:24,560
Speaker 2: but we love it, yeah, because it's like this inside

1750
01:45:25,600 --> 01:45:25,840
Speaker 2: you know.

1751
01:45:27,200 --> 01:45:27,679
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

1752
01:45:27,960 --> 01:45:31,080
Speaker 3: The one thing with Hard Knocks though, is that they're

1753
01:45:31,160 --> 01:45:35,080
Speaker 3: not they don't go extremely deep into the personal lives

1754
01:45:35,160 --> 01:45:37,240
Speaker 3: because it's it's the season.

1755
01:45:37,479 --> 01:45:37,640
Speaker 2: You know.

1756
01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:41,840
Speaker 3: It's like Netflix, I'm sure had like a very good deal,

1757
01:45:41,920 --> 01:45:44,760
Speaker 3: probably paid it amount of money that I couldn't even

1758
01:45:44,880 --> 01:45:47,200
Speaker 3: guess to these three guys, you know, so it's probably

1759
01:45:47,200 --> 01:45:50,240
Speaker 3: a total different situation. Yeah, but that was the difference

1760
01:45:50,320 --> 01:45:53,280
Speaker 3: like in Hard Knocks, they they show you inside the

1761
01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:55,800
Speaker 3: locker room and they show you a lot of team things.

1762
01:45:56,400 --> 01:45:59,360
Speaker 3: This is very solo. This is like something something you

1763
01:45:59,479 --> 01:46:00,559
Speaker 3: haven't really scene.

1764
01:46:01,560 --> 01:46:05,280
Speaker 2: You know, what's interesting. And I heard it's fantastic, so

1765
01:46:05,439 --> 01:46:08,840
Speaker 2: I'm really uh, I'm really looking forward to it. So

1766
01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:11,280
Speaker 2: that's cool. I'm glad to get good reviews. Let's go

1767
01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:15,519
Speaker 2: to Cincinnati. Talk to Matt. Matt, good morning, buddy.

1768
01:46:15,720 --> 01:46:17,240
Speaker 3: Unfortunately Matt just left us.

1769
01:46:17,840 --> 01:46:21,639
Speaker 1: Oh jeez, Matt, and and the Buffalo Buffalo Mike.

1770
01:46:22,320 --> 01:46:26,559
Speaker 2: Oh boys, all right, well we we gotta well reset

1771
01:46:26,640 --> 01:46:30,519
Speaker 2: it in a second. But you know it's funny. Uh.

1772
01:46:30,720 --> 01:46:32,840
Speaker 2: You could join us at eighty seven seven ninety nine

1773
01:46:32,880 --> 01:46:37,160
Speaker 2: on Fox eight seven seven nine nine on Fox Your Tea.

1774
01:46:37,479 --> 01:46:41,240
Speaker 2: What team, and the question is what what would be?

1775
01:46:42,360 --> 01:46:45,679
Speaker 2: You're the team that wins that would have your town

1776
01:46:45,800 --> 01:46:49,000
Speaker 2: celebrating for a couple of months the way, uh, the

1777
01:46:49,080 --> 01:46:53,920
Speaker 2: way I saw it in Naples, which was really uncanny. Uh. Hey,

1778
01:46:53,960 --> 01:46:56,639
Speaker 2: by the way, speaking of you brought the airlines. Yeah,

1779
01:46:57,760 --> 01:47:03,840
Speaker 2: so we land Newark Airport and they tell us just wait,

1780
01:47:04,680 --> 01:47:10,160
Speaker 2: the authorities have to board that there's a thing the

1781
01:47:10,479 --> 01:47:16,559
Speaker 2: flight announcing these people and that we couldn't move because

1782
01:47:16,600 --> 01:47:21,400
Speaker 2: the authorities were on the flight to arrest these people

1783
01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:30,680
Speaker 2: forgetting it was the United for for brawling.

1784
01:47:31,760 --> 01:47:32,640
Speaker 3: There's been a lot of that.

1785
01:47:36,439 --> 01:47:40,599
Speaker 2: At all. I'm thinking is what what like people are

1786
01:47:40,680 --> 01:47:44,479
Speaker 2: fighting on on the Like I get it, Like you're

1787
01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:49,040
Speaker 2: cooped up and you know, everything gets on your nerves.

1788
01:47:50,040 --> 01:47:53,760
Speaker 2: The person behind you because you're so tight together, the

1789
01:47:53,920 --> 01:47:57,479
Speaker 2: person behind you puts their seat back and leans back

1790
01:47:57,600 --> 01:47:59,519
Speaker 2: and they're like in your lap and you feel like

1791
01:47:59,680 --> 01:48:04,720
Speaker 2: you're like suffocate. I understand it, But what's the deal,

1792
01:48:04,840 --> 01:48:07,800
Speaker 2: Like you can't you can't start swinging? Like what do

1793
01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:11,799
Speaker 2: people don't understand about that? Like you can't be swinging

1794
01:48:12,600 --> 01:48:16,800
Speaker 2: on an airplane, you know, forty thousand feet you can't

1795
01:48:16,880 --> 01:48:19,599
Speaker 2: do that. Are people crazy?

1796
01:48:20,280 --> 01:48:20,479
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1797
01:48:20,520 --> 01:48:24,479
Speaker 3: I think after the pandemic, people just took a total

1798
01:48:24,560 --> 01:48:26,799
Speaker 3: different lane of crazy.

1799
01:48:28,479 --> 01:48:31,000
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you all. I kept thinking it was

1800
01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:34,640
Speaker 2: and like I didn't know. I mean, it happened like

1801
01:48:34,760 --> 01:48:39,720
Speaker 2: behind us, right, so you know, we were or maybe

1802
01:48:39,760 --> 01:48:41,840
Speaker 2: in front of us, because we were pretty far back

1803
01:48:41,920 --> 01:48:46,280
Speaker 2: in the plane. But I had no idea there there

1804
01:48:46,439 --> 01:48:49,080
Speaker 2: was And all of a sudden, you know, there was

1805
01:48:49,160 --> 01:48:54,200
Speaker 2: the police was all over you know, there's handcuffs going

1806
01:48:54,439 --> 01:48:58,120
Speaker 2: what what is going on here? What do these people

1807
01:48:58,360 --> 01:49:01,360
Speaker 2: do it? And then the other day I saw some

1808
01:49:01,600 --> 01:49:06,840
Speaker 2: Twitter video of these women brawling on the casino floor

1809
01:49:06,880 --> 01:49:11,880
Speaker 2: in Vegas. How crazy is that? Yo? Mark?

1810
01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:17,840
Speaker 1: It's amazing how so many people have lost their patience

1811
01:49:17,880 --> 01:49:21,000
Speaker 1: about anything. It's just so quick to go right to

1812
01:49:21,200 --> 01:49:25,960
Speaker 1: the throwing, you know, throwing knuckles. It's so quick. No

1813
01:49:26,080 --> 01:49:28,840
Speaker 1: one says any patience to say, you know, excuse me,

1814
01:49:29,240 --> 01:49:33,320
Speaker 1: or it's all over. No one has patience anymore.

1815
01:49:34,479 --> 01:49:40,679
Speaker 2: It's outrageous, dude, completely outrageous, Markie. I'm thinking, I'm looking

1816
01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:45,560
Speaker 2: there's you know, there was like ten cops and I

1817
01:49:45,600 --> 01:49:47,479
Speaker 2: don't even know what happened other than there was a brawl.

1818
01:49:47,520 --> 01:49:48,719
Speaker 2: They said that there was a brawl.

1819
01:49:49,120 --> 01:49:54,120
Speaker 1: It just appears like everybody cannot think of your fellow

1820
01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:57,919
Speaker 1: man in any other way. You just cannot have any empathy.

1821
01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we need we got to change that, seriously.

1822
01:50:01,640 --> 01:50:05,200
Speaker 1: No one has empathy anymore for the other guy. You

1823
01:50:05,439 --> 01:50:07,960
Speaker 1: never know what somebody is going through. I know everyone

1824
01:50:08,080 --> 01:50:11,920
Speaker 1: says that, but no one is thinking of the other person.

1825
01:50:12,120 --> 01:50:15,519
Speaker 1: Just basic humanity. Now, a lot of that is gone

1826
01:50:15,640 --> 01:50:21,799
Speaker 1: because everybody seems to have lost the value of another person,

1827
01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:25,880
Speaker 1: which makes it easy to throw a punch because I

1828
01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:29,439
Speaker 1: don't care about you. You are the last of our problems.

1829

Speaker 7: All that.

1834
01:50:40,560 --> 01:50:44,280
Speaker 2: We gotta change that. We gotta have to change that. Uh,

Speaker 2: let's go to Anthony in Houston. Good morning, and how

1836
01:50:48,720 --> 01:50:49,320
Speaker 2: are you, buddy.

1837
01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:56,160
Speaker 6: I'm good, good, good. You know something, I'm going back

1838
01:50:56,200 --> 01:51:00,200
Speaker 6: to running back thing in the NFL. You know, me

1839
01:51:00,640 --> 01:51:04,439
Speaker 6: born in Kingston, Jamaica and moving to Brooklyn, New York.

1840
01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:06,519
Speaker 6: My family moved to Brooklyn, New York when I was

1841
01:51:06,600 --> 01:51:09,760
Speaker 6: about fifteen years old. And so I've always been the

1842
01:51:09,880 --> 01:51:15,200
Speaker 6: Giant New York Giants flan And you know, besides Tom

1843
01:51:15,439 --> 01:51:20,599
Speaker 6: Brady running backs well now I could say Patrick Mahomes

1844
01:51:21,400 --> 01:51:25,880
Speaker 6: running backs make quarterbacks go. I mean, I'm the Giants

1845
01:51:25,880 --> 01:51:26,719
Speaker 6: for Joe Morrison.

1846
01:51:27,479 --> 01:51:27,640
Speaker 2: You know.

1847
01:51:28,560 --> 01:51:33,800
Speaker 6: You know, Phil sims at a decent career, you know,

1848
01:51:34,040 --> 01:51:35,760
Speaker 6: I mean because of the defense was so great with

1849
01:51:35,880 --> 01:51:38,280
Speaker 6: Laurra Talor and everything else. But you also had a

1850
01:51:38,320 --> 01:51:42,240
Speaker 6: great running game. And my thing is this and I'm

1851
01:51:42,280 --> 01:51:45,639
Speaker 6: gonna ask you this. Yeah, you know, why would kids

1852
01:51:46,600 --> 01:51:48,679
Speaker 6: want to go up in high school now or whatever

1853
01:51:48,760 --> 01:51:53,280
Speaker 6: and play played the running back position because brun that position,

1854
01:51:53,520 --> 01:51:58,000
Speaker 6: it's bruling your body and it's you know, your you're.

1855
01:51:57,920 --> 01:52:01,160
Speaker 2: And it's a one contract. You don't get to check contract.

1856
01:52:01,400 --> 01:52:05,240
Speaker 6: Exactly, and you're doing unless you're an exception like Derrick

1857
01:52:05,320 --> 01:52:10,679
Speaker 6: Henry and so forth. Are Musty from Minnesota did Yeah.

1858
01:52:10,600 --> 01:52:14,160
Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook? But look those guys Dealvin Cook gets released?

1859
01:52:15,439 --> 01:52:18,160
Speaker 2: Yeah you know, I mean think about it like you're right,

1860
01:52:18,760 --> 01:52:22,719
Speaker 2: You're a hund percent right. It's unfortunately and it's funny.

1861
01:52:22,760 --> 01:52:27,479
Speaker 2: It's a necessary position and you need good backs to win.

1862
01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:30,280
Speaker 2: I mean, look at Kansas City, as gray as Mahomes is,

1863
01:52:30,720 --> 01:52:31,960
Speaker 2: they won because they ran.

1864
01:52:31,920 --> 01:52:32,519
Speaker 7: The ball.

1865
01:52:33,800 --> 01:52:34,160
Speaker 2: Correct.

1866
01:52:35,360 --> 01:52:38,439
Speaker 6: So I don't so if I'm a kid, if you're

1867
01:52:38,439 --> 01:52:41,040
Speaker 6: a parent and your kid and you're you know, you're

1868
01:52:41,080 --> 01:52:43,640
Speaker 6: taking the score, I mean, you don't want them to

1869
01:52:43,640 --> 01:52:46,000
Speaker 6: play the running back position because you know that if

1870
01:52:46,080 --> 01:52:49,559
Speaker 6: it was the NFL, you know basically means not for long.

1871
01:52:50,120 --> 01:52:52,599
Speaker 6: You know, it's you might have a four or five

1872
01:52:52,640 --> 01:52:56,320
Speaker 6: year career and miss you're exceptional, right, because in the

1873
01:52:56,479 --> 01:53:01,000
Speaker 6: past it's been it's been a position and that's so great.

1874
01:53:01,360 --> 01:53:03,880
Speaker 6: But I mean that's why people that Barriss Sanders walked

1875
01:53:03,880 --> 01:53:06,559
Speaker 6: away and hearing you used to look at Earl Cambra

1876
01:53:06,640 --> 01:53:08,959
Speaker 6: or camera like four good years. Now he's in a wheelchair.

1877
01:53:09,520 --> 01:53:15,360
Speaker 6: You Yeah, So you know it makes you the kids

1878
01:53:15,439 --> 01:53:18,200
Speaker 6: in school and stuff that you know a lot of them.

1879
01:53:18,240 --> 01:53:20,240
Speaker 6: One is that I don't want to go away from

1880
01:53:20,320 --> 01:53:22,840
Speaker 6: that running back position because they're not going to get

1881
01:53:22,960 --> 01:53:26,639
Speaker 6: paid and the league doesn't value them as much.

1882
01:53:26,760 --> 01:53:29,720
Speaker 17: So I don't blame Barkley.

1883
01:53:29,880 --> 01:53:34,240
Speaker 6: For Listen, I'm not I'm not gonna because I mean,

1884
01:53:34,280 --> 01:53:35,240
Speaker 6: come on, you.

1885
01:53:37,280 --> 01:53:39,720
Speaker 2: And he was their whole offense. I mean when you

1886
01:53:39,800 --> 01:53:41,560
Speaker 2: look at it, when you look at the Giants, I

1887
01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:45,120
Speaker 2: mean Sa Kwan their whole offense last year, catch the

1888
01:53:45,160 --> 01:53:49,840
Speaker 2: ball out of the backfield. Yes, I agree, Yeah, I listened.

1889
01:53:49,880 --> 01:53:52,800
Speaker 2: You're right on and good call, buddy, you're right on.

1890
01:53:53,360 --> 01:53:57,479
Speaker 2: Good stuff. No, it's it's just and the problem is, like,

1891
01:53:57,760 --> 01:54:01,880
Speaker 2: here's the problem. So the NFL execs kid says, hey man,

1892
01:54:01,960 --> 01:54:06,600
Speaker 2: my heart goes out to the kid, but we know

1893
01:54:06,880 --> 01:54:11,040
Speaker 2: that all that wear and tear on your body, it's

1894
01:54:11,320 --> 01:54:17,959
Speaker 2: not prudent for us to pay you a second contract,

1895
01:54:19,680 --> 01:54:22,639
Speaker 2: so you know, unfortunately we're gonna run you to look

1896
01:54:22,640 --> 01:54:26,439
Speaker 2: at demo in San Francisco. Right, He's like, you want

1897
01:54:26,479 --> 01:54:28,160
Speaker 2: me to run the ball and take a beat, and

1898
01:54:28,880 --> 01:54:32,080
Speaker 2: I got you gotta, you gotta, you gotta compensate me

1899
01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:36,640
Speaker 2: even more. And Anthony's right, like, you know that position

1900
01:54:36,840 --> 01:54:41,880
Speaker 2: is is tough because you grind. It grinds you down, man.

1901
01:54:44,400 --> 01:54:48,320
Speaker 2: And the problem is really for the running back, you're

1902
01:54:48,440 --> 01:54:52,640
Speaker 2: devalued when you're drafted because you don't get long term

1903
01:54:52,840 --> 01:54:55,880
Speaker 2: value from the pick. So even you know this year

1904
01:54:56,000 --> 01:54:59,760
Speaker 2: was a little bit of anomaly with the two backs, right,

1905
01:55:01,200 --> 01:55:05,560
Speaker 2: but seriously, you know most backs and you see it

1906
01:55:06,320 --> 01:55:09,040
Speaker 2: are you know you're gonna go late first, you know,

1907
01:55:09,160 --> 01:55:12,720
Speaker 2: in the second round, and so you lose out on

1908
01:55:12,840 --> 01:55:16,240
Speaker 2: your on your draft slot when you get paid, and

1909
01:55:16,280 --> 01:55:18,720
Speaker 2: then you're gonna play on your rookie contract. And then

1910
01:55:18,760 --> 01:55:22,360
Speaker 2: by the time your rookie contract's done, chances are you're

1911
01:55:22,360 --> 01:55:24,760
Speaker 2: not getting the big second one. You may stay in

1912
01:55:24,800 --> 01:55:27,960
Speaker 2: the league, but you're not getting cash. You're not cashing

1913
01:55:28,000 --> 01:55:30,760
Speaker 2: out in a big way. So you know, that's the

1914
01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:35,480
Speaker 2: running back can undrum because they are it's so necessary

1915
01:55:35,560 --> 01:55:38,720
Speaker 2: to win. You need you need a good running game.

1916
01:55:38,760 --> 01:55:42,360
Speaker 2: Now teams are gonna go by committee. But you sold

1917
01:55:42,440 --> 01:55:46,840
Speaker 2: what Pacheco meant to Andy and the Chiefs. Big deal

1918
01:55:47,560 --> 01:55:50,800
Speaker 2: Pachecko played was terrific coming out of Rutgers late pick

1919
01:55:53,000 --> 01:55:55,640

Speaker 2: I like those things in f one or whatever.

1979
01:59:18,240 --> 01:59:20,760
Speaker 3: The problem with Wimbledon is, sorry to cut you up,

1980
01:59:20,760 --> 01:59:23,320
Speaker 3: but the problem with Wimbledon is that people act like

1981
01:59:23,360 --> 01:59:26,680
Speaker 3: they like tennis. That's my issue. People just like act

1982
01:59:26,760 --> 01:59:30,320
Speaker 3: like they only come around during the like the big tournament,

1983
01:59:30,400 --> 01:59:31,320
Speaker 3: you know whatever.

1984
01:59:31,240 --> 01:59:31,640
Speaker 1: Carry on.

1985
01:59:31,840 --> 01:59:33,640
Speaker 3: It's just you get what I'm saying. It's kind of

1986
01:59:33,680 --> 01:59:37,120
Speaker 3: like golf. What do you mean people hop on the

1987
01:59:37,160 --> 01:59:40,640
Speaker 3: wagon like they're not real fans. They just like want

1988
01:59:40,680 --> 01:59:41,720
Speaker 3: to be part of the trend.

1989
01:59:42,120 --> 01:59:42,280
Speaker 7: You know.

1990
01:59:43,640 --> 01:59:48,880
Speaker 3: No, no, I'm serious, you be part of the trend.

1991
01:59:48,960 --> 01:59:50,920
Speaker 2: There's something as a trend you got.

1992
01:59:51,240 --> 01:59:55,720
Speaker 3: Because the casual, the casual sports fan right is watching

1993
01:59:55,760 --> 02:00:01,520
Speaker 3: the NFL, MLB, NBA, even the na H even soccer.

1994
02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:05,320
Speaker 3: Now when they start going down to tennis and golf,

1995
02:00:05,520 --> 02:00:06,960
Speaker 3: that's because you've got nothing to watch.

1996
02:00:07,440 --> 02:00:11,120
Speaker 1: Everybody's watching golf. You're just watching the walk. Everybody's watching golf.

1997
02:00:11,680 --> 02:00:16,480
Speaker 2: No, I mean, yes, thanks Mark, It's not like everybody's

1998
02:00:16,680 --> 02:00:17,880
Speaker 2: but I mean.

1999
02:00:17,800 --> 02:00:19,920
Speaker 1: It's I got a point.

2000
02:00:20,040 --> 02:00:20,760
Speaker 3: I got a point.

2001
02:00:20,960 --> 02:00:22,480
Speaker 1: Golf has its fixed people.

2002
02:00:22,560 --> 02:00:23,560
Speaker 7: Do we do it?

2003
02:00:23,680 --> 02:00:31,280
Speaker 2: Does? I agree? Yeah? I mean, you know, Wimbledon, it

2004
02:00:31,360 --> 02:00:34,240
Speaker 2: is an incredible event. I mean there's certain events on

2005
02:00:34,600 --> 02:00:37,880
Speaker 2: the tennis calendar. Doesn't mean you have to be fine.

2006
02:00:38,760 --> 02:00:41,520
Speaker 2: You're gonna be Jimmy Connors maybe like a fan.

2007
02:00:42,120 --> 02:00:46,440
Speaker 3: Fans of the event, but not really the sport, you know,

2008
02:00:47,160 --> 02:00:53,560
Speaker 3: like more excited for the event that comes from the

2009
02:00:53,680 --> 02:00:56,720
Speaker 3: sport instead of the actual sport. Because you said you

2010
02:00:56,840 --> 02:00:59,440
Speaker 3: only watch the Opens, and like me, I only watch

2011
02:00:59,520 --> 02:01:01,720
Speaker 3: the Open or Wimbledon. I watched tennis twice a year.

2012
02:01:01,960 --> 02:01:03,440
Speaker 3: It's like I'm watching it all year round.

2013
02:01:04,640 --> 02:01:08,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but we're we would be more casual, you know, listen.

2014
02:01:09,240 --> 02:01:11,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, again, we all have our own taste,

2015
02:01:11,280 --> 02:01:15,440
Speaker 2: right so, but for the most of us, football is

2016
02:01:16,240 --> 02:01:18,400
Speaker 2: king and then you know, I then you got for me,

2017
02:01:18,480 --> 02:01:21,840
Speaker 2: and then it's baseball, basketball, hockey. I love it, you know,

2018
02:01:21,920 --> 02:01:23,640
Speaker 2: I love hoops. I love my you know, I love

2019
02:01:23,680 --> 02:01:27,280
Speaker 2: my basketball. I love my baseball and hockey, and I like,

2020
02:01:27,320 --> 02:01:29,440
Speaker 2: you know, I started to really get into soccer and

2021
02:01:30,440 --> 02:01:33,760
Speaker 2: you know, and then you got your box of golf,

2022
02:01:34,160 --> 02:01:37,200
Speaker 2: you know, tennis, whatever. But like it's just a pure

2023
02:01:37,240 --> 02:01:38,840
Speaker 2: I don't think you're a fake fan. If you check

2024
02:01:38,880 --> 02:01:42,000
Speaker 2: if you check in, I mean.

2025
02:01:43,480 --> 02:01:46,920
Speaker 3: I don't really much because I thought about it because

2026
02:01:46,960 --> 02:01:49,640
Speaker 3: my my buddy, he's going to the Wimbledon next year.

2027
02:01:49,720 --> 02:01:52,160
Speaker 3: He got he got tickets. I've never seen the guy

2028
02:01:52,240 --> 02:01:54,160
Speaker 3: talk tennis and entirely I never even said, hi, pick

2029
02:01:54,200 --> 02:01:54,560
Speaker 3: up a ride.

2030
02:01:54,600 --> 02:01:56,160
Speaker 2: Well, but that's a bucket list thing.

2031
02:01:56,280 --> 02:01:58,040
Speaker 3: Now, I guess, so No, I guess it's the event.

2032
02:01:58,360 --> 02:02:00,760
Speaker 3: It's the event, it's not the sport. Don't be a

2033
02:02:00,880 --> 02:02:04,680
Speaker 3: cree No, I'm not I would go to I'm not

2034
02:02:04,840 --> 02:02:09,200
Speaker 3: saying that I went to the I went to the US.

2035
02:02:09,600 --> 02:02:13,400
Speaker 2: Your buddy, because he's got taken that true.

2036
02:02:13,800 --> 02:02:16,920
Speaker 3: That is not true. I'm just making a point that

2037
02:02:18,400 --> 02:02:21,680
Speaker 3: nobody really likes, like he's not going nobody really likes

2038
02:02:22,520 --> 02:02:24,800
Speaker 3: He's not going to watch he's going for the event,

2039
02:02:25,760 --> 02:02:27,280
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Like, I didn't go to that.

2040
02:02:27,400 --> 02:02:29,800
Speaker 3: I didn't go to the US Open because I love golf.

2041
02:02:30,160 --> 02:02:32,000
Speaker 3: Went to the US Open because it's the US Open.

2042
02:02:32,600 --> 02:02:34,640
Speaker 3: You know, you go to the super Bowl because you

2043
02:02:34,680 --> 02:02:37,000
Speaker 3: want to watch football. You don't go because you also

2044
02:02:37,120 --> 02:02:39,000
Speaker 3: go because of the event. But you're really going for

2045
02:02:39,120 --> 02:02:39,640
Speaker 3: the football.

2046
02:02:39,760 --> 02:02:42,480

Speaker 2: What are you talking about? Your hat on your.

2050
02:02:55,120 --> 02:02:57,720
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to point out the obvious.

2051
02:02:58,240 --> 02:03:01,800
Speaker 2: What is it again? What's the fact that you don't

2052
02:03:01,840 --> 02:03:04,760
Speaker 2: need to be if you get tickets to Wimbledon? What

2053
02:03:05,440 --> 02:03:09,600
Speaker 2: that experience is a unique experience. You don't need to be,

Speaker 2: gonna watch. He's watching to get matches like that's a

2064
02:03:45,000 --> 02:03:47,680
Speaker 2: big deal. That's that's cool, it's cool.

2065
02:03:48,240 --> 02:03:51,480
Speaker 1: But you know, we don't like tennis, if anything tennis.

2066
02:03:51,960 --> 02:03:54,160
Speaker 2: You're a cream.

2067
02:03:56,920 --> 02:03:59,800
Speaker 3: Nobody cares about tennis. And you're not going to watch tennis.

2068
02:03:59,840 --> 02:04:01,680
Speaker 1: You don't even know who you are anymore.

2069
02:04:05,840 --> 02:04:08,120
Speaker 2: What do you mean nobody cares about.

2070
02:04:10,920 --> 02:04:15,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I suffer from having big, big stars. But there

2071
02:04:15,560 --> 02:04:17,760
Speaker 1: are a few men stars, and there are a few

2072
02:04:17,880 --> 02:04:22,640
Speaker 1: women's stars. But there's tennis has the section of people

2073
02:04:22,720 --> 02:04:25,800
Speaker 1: that watch and they love it. Just like every other sport.

2074
02:04:26,240 --> 02:04:26,840
Speaker 2: There's a crew.

2075
02:04:27,040 --> 02:04:29,720
Speaker 3: There's a crew, but don't be a fake crew member.

2076
02:04:29,760 --> 02:04:30,120
Speaker 17: They're not.

2077
02:04:32,160 --> 02:04:35,360
Speaker 2: Because you want to experience faw members.

2078
02:04:37,160 --> 02:04:38,839
Speaker 3: There are fake crew members.

2079
02:04:39,360 --> 02:04:39,840

02:05:27,360 --> 02:05:29,600
Speaker 3: going for the event. You're going for the experience.

2094
02:05:29,960 --> 02:05:33,000
Speaker 1: Anthony, Maybe we have to narrow down what Ethan likes,

2095
02:05:33,080 --> 02:05:36,440
Speaker 1: what he's dying for, versus what other because he thinks,

2096
02:05:37,160 --> 02:05:37,640
Speaker 1: I guess.

02:05:38,760 --> 02:05:40,320

Speaker 1: I don't know who this guy is next to me, Mark.

2143
02:08:16,800 --> 02:08:19,160
Speaker 2: I needed time I actually need a time out. Is

2144
02:08:19,240 --> 02:08:20,000

2148
02:08:35,200 --> 02:08:40,120
Speaker 3: egging him on. And I'm speaking factual stuff here and

2149
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:45,880
Speaker 3: information that people agree with us out if I had,

2150
02:08:46,040 --> 02:08:49,920

2151
02:08:49,920 --> 02:08:51,840
Speaker 3: I'm just too on one. I'm getting kicked in the

2152
02:08:51,920 --> 02:08:52,320
Speaker 3: mouth here.

2153
02:08:54,000 --> 02:08:55,480
Speaker 2: I still even your point.

2154
02:08:55,920 --> 02:08:57,920
Speaker 1: I know exactly what are you talking about?

2155
02:08:58,040 --> 02:09:00,960
Speaker 3: Yeah you do, Yeah, you do? You do understand my point?

2156
02:09:01,440 --> 02:09:04,800
Speaker 3: One more time for the record, And how about that

2157
02:09:04,920 --> 02:09:08,360
Speaker 3: you're a cream for the record. If you can't comprehend

2158
02:09:08,400 --> 02:09:09,840
Speaker 3: what's going on here, you're the creating.

2159
02:09:09,960 --> 02:09:12,000
Speaker 1: Please explain for the record.

2160
02:09:13,880 --> 02:09:17,040
Speaker 2: Go ahead, this is your again. You have to stand

2161
02:09:17,120 --> 02:09:17,920
Speaker 2: behind these words.

2162
02:09:17,960 --> 02:09:23,040
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm standing behind these words. So we're talking golf

2163
02:09:23,640 --> 02:09:28,200
Speaker 3: and we're talking tennis, those two sports specifically. If you're

2164
02:09:28,400 --> 02:09:32,440
Speaker 3: a sports fan, right, just a general sports fan like me,

2165
02:09:33,400 --> 02:09:38,920
Speaker 3: and you're like the NFL, NBA, and in baseball, you're

2166
02:09:38,960 --> 02:09:42,800
Speaker 3: focusing on those leagues, and you don't focus on the

2167
02:09:43,000 --> 02:09:46,360
Speaker 3: golf or the soccer the rest of the year, and

2168
02:09:46,480 --> 02:09:50,640
Speaker 3: then you just watch it for one weekend. You are

2169
02:09:50,840 --> 02:09:53,960
Speaker 3: just following the trend. You're not a real fan of

2170
02:09:54,080 --> 02:09:57,320
Speaker 3: the sport. You're just enjoying it because you like the event.

2171
02:09:57,440 --> 02:09:59,400
Speaker 3: You like that everybody's watching it. You may have some

2172
02:09:59,520 --> 02:10:02,320
Speaker 3: money on it it, you may want to talk about it,

2173
02:10:02,400 --> 02:10:04,080
Speaker 3: you may want to be a part of the conversation.

2174
02:10:04,360 --> 02:10:08,080
Speaker 3: You're not actually enjoying the game, or you'd be watching

2175
02:10:08,160 --> 02:10:11,200
Speaker 3: it all year round. That's the point. Okay, you can't

2176
02:10:11,320 --> 02:10:11,920
Speaker 3: understand that.

2177
02:10:12,160 --> 02:10:14,120
Speaker 1: Then I go to school.

2178
02:10:14,480 --> 02:10:18,240
Speaker 2: Okay, as you look up the word cretan, I appreciate that.

2179
02:10:18,880 --> 02:10:22,840
Speaker 3: Well, nobody uses that word. It's not fair that words

2180
02:10:22,880 --> 02:10:23,920
Speaker 3: from before my time.

2181
02:10:25,600 --> 02:10:30,720
Speaker 2: Okay, So here's a bottom line. You can enjoy a

2182
02:10:30,880 --> 02:10:34,960
Speaker 2: big event without being a rabid fan of that sport.

2183
02:10:37,840 --> 02:10:42,240
Speaker 2: I love watching golf's majors. Now, why don't I enjoy that.

2184
02:10:42,480 --> 02:10:46,320
Speaker 2: I watch the majors. I sit and watch on a Sunday,

2185
02:10:46,480 --> 02:10:49,600
Speaker 2: and I'll probably I'll follow, you know, Thursday, Friday, Saturday,

2186
02:10:49,960 --> 02:10:52,320
Speaker 2: and then in the Sunday I'll be locked in. I

2187
02:10:52,600 --> 02:10:57,880
Speaker 2: enjoy watching those majors. Why because it is a championship

2188
02:10:58,080 --> 02:11:03,360
Speaker 2: type of the atmosphere. So I like the competition. Can't

2189
02:11:03,400 --> 02:11:05,320
Speaker 2: you just like the competition? Do you need to be

2190
02:11:06,320 --> 02:11:08,480
Speaker 2: and and an expert in that sport?

2191
02:11:10,960 --> 02:11:13,440
Speaker 3: No, listen, that's you're kind of just showing my point.

2192
02:11:13,840 --> 02:11:18,520
Speaker 2: Like ill, you're but you're denigrating people saying they just

2193
02:11:18,600 --> 02:11:21,920
Speaker 2: want to be a part of the crowds. Well whatever

2194
02:11:22,000 --> 02:11:22,520
Speaker 2: that means.

2195
02:11:22,760 --> 02:11:28,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, people get thrilled from like events like that that

2196
02:11:28,440 --> 02:11:32,000
Speaker 3: they just want to be at the events. I'm right,

2197
02:11:32,080 --> 02:11:33,960
Speaker 3: it's not even it's not even a commerce.

2198
02:11:34,000 --> 02:11:37,160
Speaker 1: It's it's just a pit off.

2199
02:11:37,280 --> 02:11:37,480
Speaker 2: Mark.

2200
02:11:38,120 --> 02:11:40,880
Speaker 3: Mark's just like talking to talk. He doesn't even agree,

2201
02:11:41,000 --> 02:11:42,880
Speaker 3: Like he doesn't even he agrees.

2202
02:11:43,120 --> 02:11:45,400

02:13:51,400 --> 02:13:52,040

2243
02:14:08,480 --> 02:14:11,080
Speaker 17: be around, but I'm not just going to tune in

2244
02:14:11,200 --> 02:14:14,720
Speaker 17: for the sport necessarily. So still big football fans, and

2245
02:14:14,840 --> 02:14:18,080
Speaker 17: I grew up part of my growing up, my formative

2246
02:14:18,120 --> 02:14:21,200
Speaker 17: years were in Nebraska, and so like you know, here

2247
02:14:21,280 --> 02:14:25,200
Speaker 17: I am. We're a huge Cornhusker fans. And every Saturday,

2248
02:14:25,360 --> 02:14:28,040
Speaker 17: like we'd be you know, there's seven kids in my family.

2249
02:14:28,120 --> 02:14:31,360
Speaker 17: Still the boys would be outside with our little Nebraska

2250
02:14:31,520 --> 02:14:37,200
Speaker 17: Cornhusker plastic helmets on andy and playing football and you know,

2251
02:14:37,480 --> 02:14:40,320
Speaker 17: Jerry Taggy was the big quarterback at the time. There

2252
02:14:40,360 --> 02:14:41,680
Speaker 17: you go, there takes you back away.

2253
02:14:42,360 --> 02:14:43,000
Speaker 2: That's cool.

2254
02:14:43,920 --> 02:14:46,640
Speaker 17: Yeah, And it was like that was at the time, Anthony,

2255
02:14:46,680 --> 02:14:49,840
Speaker 17: where when when Lincoln, when they had the game there

2256
02:14:49,880 --> 02:14:53,640
Speaker 17: in Lincoln, the stadium would become the third largest city

2257
02:14:53,680 --> 02:14:54,520
Speaker 17: by population.

2258
02:14:55,040 --> 02:14:57,440
Speaker 9: Yes, yeah, it's kind of crazy.

2259
02:14:57,560 --> 02:14:59,640
Speaker 2: And then still you're still root for him.

2260
02:15:00,640 --> 02:15:02,560
Speaker 18: Oh yeah, yeah, even though they're not doing much.

2261
02:15:02,680 --> 02:15:04,960
Speaker 2: So you know they're gonna try it, right you mark

2262
02:15:05,000 --> 02:15:08,600
Speaker 2: my words. Matt. Matt's going to turn them. Matt rule

2263
02:15:08,680 --> 02:15:09,600
Speaker 2: will turn them around.

2264
02:15:10,800 --> 02:15:13,480
Speaker 18: And so that's what I'm honestly helping for. And you know,

2265
02:15:13,520 --> 02:15:17,200
Speaker 18: I played semi pro and Omaha for the Omaha Mustangs.

2266
02:15:17,240 --> 02:15:20,840
Speaker 18: And the thing about Nebraska is that you just say

2267
02:15:20,920 --> 02:15:24,360
Speaker 18: football and twenty thousand people show up, whether it's a

2268
02:15:24,440 --> 02:15:25,200
Speaker 18: high school.

Speaker 17: Game or pro or like you know at the universities.

2270
02:15:28,840 --> 02:15:31,160
Speaker 18: It's much bigger than that, but it is.

2271
02:15:31,320 --> 02:15:33,720
Speaker 17: It's just what you do. It's what you think. We

2272
02:15:33,840 --> 02:15:35,880
Speaker 17: had the flag we have, you know, we got all

2313
02:18:00,760 --> 02:18:03,960

2314
02:18:04,120 --> 02:18:07,040
Speaker 7: with forbidden rice, Ben Simmons who does not want to

2315
02:18:07,040 --> 02:18:09,760

Speaker 2: I I've never seen an NFL game in England or

2477
02:27:25,160 --> 02:27:27,080

Speaker 3: Yeah, that's just like the only issue, Like I would go.

2480
02:27:34,920 --> 02:27:37,080
Speaker 3: It's just a tough thing to do, you know, it's

2481
02:27:37,120 --> 02:27:39,720
Speaker 3: like a whole it's like only like a weekend, and

2482
02:27:39,959 --> 02:27:41,480
Speaker 3: like if you go for work, Like if you were

2483
02:27:41,560 --> 02:27:44,600
Speaker 3: going for work, it would be a lot easier of

2484
02:27:44,680 --> 02:27:47,520
Speaker 3: a situation. But if you're just going for fun, it's

2485
02:27:47,600 --> 02:27:49,960
Speaker 3: kind of like you got to catch it at a

2486
02:27:50,000 --> 02:27:54,160
Speaker 3: good time, you know, like at December Christmas time. It's

2487
02:27:54,240 --> 02:27:55,840

2488
02:27:57,040 --> 02:27:59,720

2490
02:28:02,800 --> 02:28:06,760
Speaker 2: just just and again. Now again, we're in the same vein.

2491
02:28:07,120 --> 02:28:09,840
Speaker 2: We're you know, obviously huge football fans, right, so we

2492
02:28:10,000 --> 02:28:14,280
Speaker 2: love that. But witnessing a football game in England would

2493
02:28:14,320 --> 02:28:17,520
Speaker 2: be interesting in the same way. I've never been to

2494
02:28:17,600 --> 02:28:20,959
Speaker 2: an EPL game or I just got back from Italy, right,

2495
02:28:21,000 --> 02:28:23,880
Speaker 2: I was never at a Syria game. I love to

2496
02:28:23,959 --> 02:28:27,560
Speaker 2: see that. Still, you know how they the friend of

2497
02:28:27,640 --> 02:28:31,640
Speaker 2: mine over there was telling me about Milan and how

2498
02:28:31,920 --> 02:28:34,520
Speaker 2: in Milan, like he was showing me pictures from the

2499
02:28:34,600 --> 02:28:38,560
Speaker 2: game and the match and it was, you know, there

2500
02:28:38,640 --> 02:28:43,480
Speaker 2: was like eighty five thousand people and the chance like

2501
02:28:43,560 --> 02:28:46,720
Speaker 2: they don't they don't stop chanting and singing the whole match,

2502
02:28:48,680 --> 02:28:52,320
Speaker 2: you know. Now again for US football we celebrate similarly,

2503
02:28:53,280 --> 02:28:55,760
Speaker 2: but just the idea of of seeing it would be

2504
02:28:56,080 --> 02:28:59,039
Speaker 2: an interesting, you know kind of piece. All right, we'll

2505
02:28:59,080 --> 02:29:01,920
Speaker 2: come back and and uh we'll get whoever's on the lines.

2506
02:29:01,959 --> 02:29:05,360
Speaker 2: We'll hang out. Still one more segment where the fellas

2515
02:29:42,600 --> 02:29:44,440
Speaker 16: you know. And what I like about the show is

2516
02:29:44,440 --> 02:29:47,280
Speaker 16: it's always good to h to agree to disagree. And

2517
02:29:47,560 --> 02:29:49,040
Speaker 16: you know what, if you if you always have the

2518
02:29:49,080 --> 02:29:52,160
Speaker 16: same opinion, the show wouldn't go very far. But I'm

2519
02:29:52,160 --> 02:29:54,080
Speaker 16: going to tell you this. I'll bring up this quick point.

2520
02:29:54,879 --> 02:29:57,680
Speaker 16: If I if I had three extra tickets and I said, hey, guys,

2521
02:29:57,760 --> 02:29:59,760
Speaker 16: let's get together next year and let's go to rick

2522
02:30:00,240 --> 02:30:03,800
Speaker 16: rick Wood Field in Alabama to watch the Cardinals and

2523
02:30:03,879 --> 02:30:05,879
Speaker 16: Giants play a baseball game.

2524
02:30:06,240 --> 02:30:07,080
Speaker 7: We probably all go.

2525
02:30:07,640 --> 02:30:08,480
Speaker 2: And why should we go?

2526
02:30:08,640 --> 02:30:09,680
Speaker 6: Because we'd be able.

2527
02:30:09,520 --> 02:30:12,480
Speaker 16: To see that field, the oldest field in America in Alabama.

2528
02:30:13,320 --> 02:30:15,480
Speaker 16: It'd be it'd just be a great time together.

2529
02:30:15,680 --> 02:30:15,800
Speaker 3: Right.

2530
02:30:16,400 --> 02:30:21,680
Speaker 16: So I'm with you, like the event is special and

2531
02:30:21,720 --> 02:30:23,680
Speaker 16: you can make something out of it every single time.

2532
02:30:23,760 --> 02:30:26,200
Speaker 16: But you know, that's just my point on that. And

2533
02:30:26,320 --> 02:30:28,840
Speaker 16: as far as a team, that would just make me

2534
02:30:28,959 --> 02:30:31,280
Speaker 16: celebrate for a very very long time. And I'm telling

2535

Speaker 16: you right now, I would celebrate more than Bobby Benia

2536
02:30:34,280 --> 02:30:37,480
Speaker 16: on July first, and if my damn is, if my

2537
02:30:37,600 --> 02:30:40,680
Speaker 16: Pittsburgh Pirates could win something, I don't think it's gonna

2538
02:30:40,680 --> 02:30:44,280
Speaker 16: happen in my lifetime or yours, but man, I'd celebrate, dude.
