This time of day for me, 26 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 2: typically I'll just lay it out, is when I get 27 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: up because I'm old and I have to pean on 28 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,479 Speaker 2: stop there right tonight, and I go to the restroom 29 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 2: and I grab my phone.

I've been enjoining a lot 37 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 2: of the Olympic action the last few weeks. I've been 38 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 2: more into it than I thought i'd be, to be 39 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: honest with you, Chris. You know, for whatever reason, Tokyo 40 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 2: just didn't hit right. And maybe it's because it was 41 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: the COVID and it was a year late, and there 42 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 2: weren't a lot of people in the audience. The time 43 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: zone difference was a lot more significant, and there was 44 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 2: a lot of events that were just buried. You know, 45 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: even though we're as we have live events going on 46 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: now in the early morning slash overnight, he was even 47 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: more so then, So I don't know, I'm really into it. 48 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: We got college football getting ready to get started up 49 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: here in a couple of weeks, which you know, we're 50 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: both deeply into NFL preseason in full swing. So I mean, 51 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 3: this is kind of the guy at the greatest time 52 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: of the year we got coming up right now. The 53 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 3: weather is still pretty nice or it could be hot 54 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 3: and muggy, depending on where you are in the country. 55 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 3: In Los Angeles, it's pretty much the same as it 56 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 3: always is, which is pretty amazing. So so I'm fired up. 57 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 3: This is an exciting time of year. I'm looking forward 58 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 3: to everything we have going right now. 59 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: Well, we're coming to you live from the tyrack dot 60 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: com studios.

Usually I'm not here 69 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 2: to judge, but usually when you're a two person crew, 70 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 2: one will work when the other has a vacation, and 71 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 2: as Arnie likes to say, vice versa. So with both 72 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: of them out, I gotta be honest with you, I 73 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: was fired up because I have three kids. When I 74 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: was a new dad, this was the time of day 75 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 2: when I was up a lot on the weekends because 76 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: I worked during the week and I wouldn't have a 77 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: lot of that this is going to sound terrible, but 78 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 2: a lot of the diaper duty responsibilities during the week, 79 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 2: but the weekends were mine. And you know, we're going 80 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 2: back eighteen years now, nineteen years after my son, not 81 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: quite that long for my daughter and way too recently 82 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: for my youngest daughter. But weekends were my responsibility, keV. 83 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: So I would be upright and early. And I fell 84 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: in love with Saturday morning Sports Radio. I fell in 85 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 2: love with this slot. And I know this is funny. 86 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 2: I'm a big get back to sports Guy because that 87 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: dude rings incessantly in my head. He just wrint free 88 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: in my head. Yeah, if there's someone you got back 89 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: that sports calmed down, we'll get there. 90 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 4: Man. 91 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: We got four hours today, for goodness sakes, I was 92 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: first saying Ian Roddy reminded me of whenever I die, 93 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 2: and he's like four hours today. Four a marathon, not 94 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 2: a sprint. Rite in could ease our way into all 95 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: the sports talk for a time. Plenty of time, plenty 96 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: of time to get there. Let's see. 97 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 3: I'm not fortunate enough to as you were, Chris. When 98 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 3: it came to like the having the weekends, I was 99 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 3: throwing knee deep into it, all of it. My wife 100 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: and I will tag in and out, just like all right, 101 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: you do the one, am, I'll do the one forty five, 102 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: you do. 103 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 2: The two, I'll do the wall, all while still going 104 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: to work. You know you're you're a better man than 105 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: I am. Is what you're laying out, and I appreciate that. No, 106 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 2: that's not all right. Everybody does it differently. There's there's 107 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 2: no indictment on you or anybody else. That's just how 108 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 2: we defend myself. That's not like I said, I ain't 109 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: helping all right, got a bunch of friendlf, but I 110 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: loved it. And and part of the reason why I 111 00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 2: loved Saturday mornings is because to me, in Sunday mornings, 112 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: it it's an open palette, it's an open a kind 113 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: of forum, and I love the freedom. At this time 114 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: of the morning. There's usually not sports going on. Now 115 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 2: we have the Olympics, but there's always things to not 116 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 2: only react to because it's still relatively fresh, but it's 117 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 2: also a chance to preview what's coming up in the day. Right, 118 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 2: it's a perfect balance. Let me tell you one thing. 119 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: When those kids grew, I'm gonna have a chance to 120 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: sleep during this time. Let me die. I'm sure you sleep. 121 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 2: We had a speaking of the kids, we had a 122 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 2: sleepover at our house last night. We had my daughter, 123 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 2: my ten year old daughter. I did not time this 124 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: thing out. I have a ten year old, a fifteen 125 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: year old, and a twenty year old. Oh. I decided 126 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 2: that I wanted my whole life could be constantly taken 127 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: care of kids. So my tenure is very excited. She's 128 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 2: a very I mean, I love my daughter, but she's 129 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: very needy. Right, she's dead absolutely, and so she had 130 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 2: these friends over and she has all these plans, right, 131 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 2: she's got it all planned out. We're gonna do this, 132 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: this and this, and what do you think happens? As 133 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: soon as all the girls get over, they don't want 134 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 2: to do anything she had. So we had a little 135 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: mini meltdown before it all started. It was like, listen, 136 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 2: this good life lesson. Things aren't always going to go 137 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 2: as you want, even though this is your party, and 138 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 2: I got to tell you something. Usually I would say, 139 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 2: if you have any of us who are or our 140 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: dads that are our moms that host you on Fox 141 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, they would probably come in here and say, 142 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, these kids kept me up all night long. 143 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 2: Can't think the wife and my daughter's like, dad, you 144 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 2: probably need to go to bed. That's really early tomorrow morning. 145 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 2: And I didn't even ask. I was like, all right, 146 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 2: night you guys. You gave me the green life. I'm 147 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 2: out of it, alright, see you bye, good night. I 148 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: sent you guys kind of my version of her rundown. 149 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 2: I think, what was that like, nine thirty ten o'clock 150 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 2: Central time last night, eight o'clock your time, and I 151 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: was out, dude. I was like, I'm gonna be I'll 152 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 2: have a little bit of juice tomorrow morning, because it does. 153 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 2: There is a lot going on right now. You know 154 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 2: you want to do? Do I ease into this thing? 155 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: Do I bring you my over the top extra nests 156 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: that I usually have. I can't help but do that, 157 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 2: because I mean, just even in baseball, let's just say 158 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: you're a casual baseball fan, right, You're I'm considering myself now, kfing. 159 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 2: Probably not a great thing to admit on a sports 160 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: radio show. I have become a casual when it comes 161 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: to baseball. I love my Dodgers, I'll watch them every 162 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: time they're on. But when it comes to the rest 163 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: of the league, like I couldn't sit here and break 164 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 2: down anything that's going on with the Mariners. 165 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 3: I would say, you can fall in line with the 166 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 3: majority of other people in the country. They might following 167 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 3: your own team and really don't follow baseball on a 168 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 3: national basis that way, that's that's not out of the 169 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: ordinary these days. 170 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 2: But I wake up this morning to four walkoffs last night, 171 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 2: and I'm sorry three w I don't know why put 172 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: the Dodgers down as a walk off three walk offs. 173 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: I put the Dodgers down because show, hey, Otani hit 174 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: a home run that I don't think is landed yet. Incredible, 175 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 2: and it was good to see Freddie Freeman back in 176 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 2: the mix. You had three NFL preseason games, all that 177 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 2: have their own kind of overreaction angle to them, including 178 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 2: By the way, this I don't know. Was Arnie on 179 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: with Bernie last night? Did I hear that? 180 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 5: Right? 181 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: Mark? Or Ian?

Well, just not last night? You know what. 187 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 2: I'm sorry that didn't make any sense.

So he's he started, 200 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 2: he's he's texting me, and he started out he's like 201 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: three and ozero, and all three of his picks were 202 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 2: wrong last So technically my man is one three and 203 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 2: that's one and three. I was gonna say one, three 204 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 2: and two, but I don't even know if they're pushes, 205 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 2: so uh. In my world, I'm very excited for the 206 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: show tomorrow night so I can hear him try to 207 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: spin this. But I'm also very excited because Arnie is 208 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: in that category with a lot of people that see 209 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,719 Speaker 2: one play from a football player and think, oh my gosh, 210 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 2: this guy's gonna be the greatest thing ever. Case in point. Now, 211 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna go back to last night or gosh, 212 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 2: now you've got me scared.

There you go, there you go. I'm 215 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 2: gonna go Joe Milton, Joe Milton. Right, we all saw 216 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 2: it had the past where I don't, I don't. I 217 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: couldn't even figure out who that defensive back for Kid 218 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: Arolina was should have been cut right. That was the 219 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 2: worst play by a cornerback I've ever seen in my 220 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 2: life for a wide open receiver and Joe Milton hits 221 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,839 Speaker 2: him in stride, which if you watched Tennessee football, should 222 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 2: be a surprise that he was able to hit him 223 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: in stride. And then against a bunch of guys who 224 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 2: will be checking your id at the door here in 225 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 2: about four months, he threw. He scrambled around for like 226 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: five minutes, and everybody loses their mind, like, oh my gosh, 227 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: did the Patriots find another gym in the sixth round? No, 228 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 2: they did not. Joe Milton is going to be that 229 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: dude that will get talked about incessantly and do the 230 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 2: same thing in the NFL that he did in college. 231 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: He disappointed. He is an all first guy off the 232 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: bus team member. Yep. If you're like, hey, this is 233 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 2: my quarterback, Like, holy smokes, look at this guy. He 234 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 2: is an absolute beast. In Tennessee fans, you know you 235 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 2: lived it. It's not a shot, it's just the reality. 236 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 2: There's guys that we fall in love with their athleticism, 237 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: and unfortunately they just can't. They just can't accurately spit it. Yeah, 238 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 2: he has a bazooka of an arm. 239 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 3: But he'll throw the ball, you know, sixty yards out 240 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 3: of bounds half of every time. 241 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 2: And everyone has their one example. Right, Kay, we'll get 242 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 2: Josh Allen. We'll get John Josh Allen was a top 243 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 2: ten pick of the draft, right fifteen pick of the draft. 244 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 2: This is a sixth rounder. I mean, think think Trell Prior, 245 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: only less accurate. Accurat, think who's the well I'm blanket 246 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: on the guy from Louisville that was on their roster 247 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 2: that had a couple cutting him. They think of just 248 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 2: some of these guys, Johnny Manzelli. You though Manzell was 249 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: a first rounder. These are dudes that we fall in 250 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 2: love with because they can run around and they can 251 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 2: make a few plays. But play in and play out, 252 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: you've got to be accurate. It's the number one thing 253 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 2: I think for quarterbacks in the NFL. Well, arm strength, sure, 254 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: but Kevin, Yeah he is. And we're gonna lose our mind. 255 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 2: Patriot fans are gonna lose their mind. I'm here to 256 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 2: calm me your asses down this morning, settle down, chill out. 257 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing because he mentioned his talent. He 258 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 3: is a great athlete and great rayle ability. The fact 259 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: that he felt to the sixth round should be telling. 260 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 3: That should tell you something. The fact the fact that 261 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 3: he's this great of an athlete, if he was actually 262 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 3: that good of a quarterback prospect, he wouldn't have fallen 263 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 3: that far to the six And you can give me 264 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 3: the Tom Brady's and all that stuff. He wasn't that 265 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 3: great of a natural athlete like this. No, So that's 266 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 3: where those comparisons in Joe Milton from a talent standpoint, 267 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 3: just from pure talent, is a Day one or a Day. 268 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 2: Two guy any any. 269 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: Talent value or to tell you that, but the fact 270 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 3: that the guy was never consistent, not accurate at all, 271 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 3: and the receivers didn't know half the time if the 272 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 3: guy was gonna throw the ball accurately towards him or 273 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: to throw it out. 274 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: Of the stadiums. 275 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 3: It was just too hard to figure out, which is 276 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 3: why he ended up being drafted where he was drafted. 277 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 3: So what he's gonna end up doing, to your point, Chris, 278 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 3: is showing flashes against guys who, quite honestly, you are not 279 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,079 Speaker 3: even gonna make NFL rosters here in the preseas in 280 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 3: a couple of times, and people gonna. 281 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: Get all excited. It happens every time every year. Let 282 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 2: me let me read a couple of headlines. Preseason debut 283 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 2: builds buzz for Joe Milton, Patriots, Jared Mayo, Joe Milton, 284 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 2: preseason debut a step forward, Joe Milton's outing created a 285 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: buzz with the Patriots, Joe Milton impresses and other quick takeaways. 286 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 2: You got the aggregators that got into it too, Joe 287 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 2: Milton looking comfortable out there for New England. And then 288 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: there was there was the I don't really know who 289 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 2: to give credit to on this report because somehow I 290 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 2: found it. Oh, here it is. Chris Mason of mass 291 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 2: Live finally did the thing that needed to be done 292 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 2: because there were people that have started because you see here. 293 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 2: I can't. I don't want to be that guy that 294 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: always yells about aggregators. I just I don't want to 295 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 2: be that guy. But I find myself being that guy. 296 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 2: You have got to check them. Part of it is 297 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 2: going full circle because again I work with someone every 298 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 2: Sunday night that falls for every single report that's out there. 299 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: I mean Kevin figures every single report that's out there, 300 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 2: he falls for it, And thank you, Chris Mason. I wish, 301 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: I wish I could send you a bouquet of whatever 302 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 2: flowers you like, because you have these reports that start 303 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 2: building along the lines of Joe Milton's been out performing 304 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 2: Drake May, and then you have last sorry Thursday night, 305 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 2: and everybody kind of loses their mind about it. Here's 306 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: a quote from Chris Mason. This storyline has been aggressively stupid, 307 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: maybe the dumbested camp since I started covering the team. 308 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: Right now, Jacoby Brissett is clearly the starter. May is 309 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 2: the backup, and Milton is battling with Bailey Zappi for 310 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: the third string job. Milton hasn't even won that one yet. 311 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 2: Mason added, they're not tasking Joe Milton with close to 312 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 2: the same responsibility as Drake May. Nothing against Milton, but 313 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 2: he looks like a sixth rounder right now. His arm 314 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: strength is extraordinary. But there are times when he's throwing 315 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 2: the same ball on a fifty yard go ball as 316 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 2: a five yard slant. 317 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 3: Oh that sounds familiar, Hey, Kevin, I don't think I've 318 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 3: seen him do that before. 319 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: You know why, We know that because we watch college football, 320 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 2: because we pay attention to the college football game. Guy, 321 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: I'm sure Joe Milton's a great guy. I'm sure that 322 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 2: it's gonna be fun to hear a very small faction 323 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: of Patriot fans and I'm very sure a much larger 324 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 2: faction of NFL fans that maybe are casuals like I 325 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 2: with Baseball, of other teams other than their own. For 326 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 2: some reason, k I feel like we cover for the NFL. 327 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 2: We follow every second of every team. Fantasy is a 328 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 2: part of that. Gambling obviously is a part of that too. 329 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: But people will see Joe Milton, it's like, oh my gosh, 330 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 2: that was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. He 331 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 2: could start there, and the reality is he's just he's 332 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: not that good. He's just not And it's funny. The 333 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: same thing happened in college real quick. And then we'll 334 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 2: get a break. We'll catch everything from last night or 335 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 2: later or earlier this evening. The thing that's fascinating to 336 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: me is the lack of you people watching college football 337 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 2: this time of year still blows my mind. And this 338 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 2: happened at Tennessee. He went out against Clemson after Hennon 339 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 2: Hooker got hurt and had a really good bowl game, 340 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: and everyone lost their mind. And then what happened whenever 341 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 2: you got into the regular season, you quickly realized, oh, 342 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, this guy's got no touch this. And 343 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 2: he had two of the better quarterback coaches in all 344 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 2: of college football, and his head coach Josh Hipel at 345 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 2: Tennessee and his offensive coordinator Joey Halsley at Tennessee. So, 346 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: k fig, I know, we've got games from earlier that 347 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 2: we'll talk about. We'll get into the Michael Pinnocks start. 348 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 2: We'll talk about the Ravens and kind of the way 349 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: things look for them. No starters really went in the 350 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 2: Dolphins game. I mean I think not only did the 351 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 2: starters not go, but I don't think Mike mcganiel even 352 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 2: played his first round picks. 353 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 3: You know. 354 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 2: But I did want to go full circle to start 355 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: the show back to Thursday night. Everybody call him down 356 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 2: on the Joe Milton train. This is going to sound wild, 357 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 2: but we've seen it. It's a fun highlight, but in 358 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 2: the end, it is not what it needs to be 359 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 2: for him. Skill set. Well, I'll put it this way. 360 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 3: Did the Patriots find themselves at any point this season 361 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 3: having Joe Milton behind center, it's been an absolute disaster 362 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 3: of a season, or is going to be a disaster 363 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 3: of a season. I'll put it that way. And no 364 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 3: indictment on him as an individual. He might look he 365 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,479 Speaker 3: might develop in a couple of years and turn out 366 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 3: to be a good quarterback of the NFL level. I 367 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: don't see it, but it can always happen. But the 368 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 3: idea that based on one throw in one preseason game 369 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 3: against to your point, a guy that's gonna be, you know, 370 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 3: flipping burgers or something at some point in the next 371 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 3: couple of weeks. No offense to anybody that flips burgers, 372 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 3: but there's a stark difference, and I think anybody that 373 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 3: Flipsbergers will tell you there's difference between doing that and 374 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 3: playing defensive back of the NFL. It's it's completely insane, 375 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 3: And to your point, this happens every single year. 376 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: Every year, man, every year. My favorite Patriot moment over 377 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 2: the last three years was in twenty twenty two Monday Night, 378 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 2: because I get it. You lose Tom Brady, You're constantly 379 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 2: trying to find that next court who's going to be 380 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: our guy. Mac Jones was not that guy. But they 381 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 2: were playing a Monday night football game against the Bears 382 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 2: and Bailey Zappi comes in off the bench right everyone 383 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 2: loses their mind and what does he do. He leads 384 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:00,200 Speaker 2: him right down the field to a touchdown, Like, oh 385 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: my gosh, we got our dude, we got our do 386 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 2: They lost the game thirty three to fourteen to the Bears. 387 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: So it's just it's one of those moments where calm 388 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 2: down a little bit, everybody chill out. It's fun because 389 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: we haven't heard, we haven't had football in a long time, 390 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 2: and it's fun to lose our minds. But I feel 391 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 2: like we got to keep some things in perspective. Okay, 392 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 2: I felt like we eased into me being a maniac 393 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 2: like I usually am. So when we come back, kfig, 394 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 2: let's get a let's get a recap of all the 395 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 2: fun from last night, the three NFL games, the three 396 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 2: walkoffs in Major League Baseball, and we've got a monumental 397 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: and massive moment coming up today in the Olympics as 398 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: we start to close the door on the Paris Games. 399 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: Here on Fox Sports Radio. 400 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 7: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 401 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 7: the nation.

I have. Let me see, 419 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 2: where did I earmark our Raiders conversation? The show is 420 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 2: very planned out. Our one was a scattershoot hour and 421 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,919 Speaker 2: we're getting through it, but we got to get to 422 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 2: it before the final hour of the show. We gotta 423 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: get to it before the final hour of the show. 424 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 2: I am not doing doing well. I'm not doing well 425 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 2: the reports on this quarterback, not only in Vegas right now. Yeah, 426 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 2: it's not looking good. I did my quick opinion on 427 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 2: this before we get to your update and get all 428 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 2: the highlights from last night. I think they really want 429 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 2: an O'Connell to step up and win the job, and 430 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: I don't think he has. 431 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the problem. It sounds like everybody is an 432 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 3: Aiden's corner. They want him or trying to will him 433 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 3: to be able to win it, and he is just 434 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 3: not taking advantage of it. 435 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 2: And then Gardner Minshew isn't running away with it part 436 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 2: of them, even though he's more mobile because he can't 437 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 2: stop throwing interceptions. So, yeah, it got so bad last night. 438 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 2: It got so bad last night that whenever I was 439 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: putting the show together, I did the old Google search 440 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 2: of available free agent quarterbacks? Who is out there? Where's 441 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco? Come on, Joe, come back? You could do this, 442 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 2: But of the best remaining free agent quarterbacks available, ah, 443 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: what did we have? Ryan Tannehill, who I gotta be 444 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 2: honest with you, kind of surprised he doesn't have a 445 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 2: team I mean, this is a guy that the Titans 446 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: gave a massive contract to not too terribly long ago, 447 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 2: and he's in the mix last year. Now he's just 448 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 2: on the beach. 449 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 3: He's also a guy that completed like three passes in 450 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 3: a playoff, a playoff win some of year. A couple 451 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 3: of years ago, he got off to a great start 452 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 3: in Miami, had that injury, was never the same. It 453 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 3: was a solid player for Tennessee. But I don't know 454 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 3: if he's people. I'm not surprised that people weren't banging 455 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 3: on his door. Let's put it that way. 456 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 2: Trevor Simeon, do anything for you? Not a damn Blaine Gabbert. No, 457 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 2: Ben Denucci had like a run with the Cowboys for 458 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 2: a while. Bendanucci. That's right, Kellen Maud, you want to 459 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 2: go back. I'm sure there's some old takes exposed from 460 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 2: draft experts. The Vikings got the steal of the draft, 461 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 2: but only got mad when Mike Zimmer was like, yeah, 462 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: he's terrible. I don't know, we can't play him. And 463 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 2: then of course there's always Nathan Peterman. Yeah, well, to 464 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 2: be good. 465 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 3: The Raiders at the Nathan Peterman experiment already when John 466 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 3: Ruden was there. 467 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 2: So one NFL story that is making a drownds here 468 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 2: this morning and late last night was the Dak Prescott 469 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 2: sitting out of practice right now. I don't I don't 470 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: mean to burst anyone's bubble, but Dak Prescott's not getting 471 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 2: traded anywhere in the preseason. The Cowboys don't have another option. 472 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 2: Quarterback trades are just something that don't happen. And as 473 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 2: much as you guys, you people can hate on Dak Prescott, 474 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: he's He's the best option the Cowboys have to win 475 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 2: this year. He's the best option they have. Now. Will 476 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 2: he end up with the Cowboys next season? I don't 477 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 2: think so. But for twenty twenty four, Jerry wants to 478 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl. He ain't going anywhere. They're not 479 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: trading a quarterback, so you can stop that. But what 480 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: I do find fascinating how hurt is he? Now? Okay, thig, 481 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 2: I mean, this is one of the those situations that 482 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 2: has been scoffed at. He wore the walking boot on 483 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 2: vacation and I was like, who wears a walking boot 484 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 2: on vacation? Jeff Schwartz, our buddy here on Fox Sports Radio. 485 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 2: We've worked together a couple of times, and he goes, Listen, 486 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 2: you don't really wear a walking boot. You might just 487 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: wear a compression sock. If it's the same injury that 488 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 2: he's been dealing with. So he's not getting dealt. But kfik, 489 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 2: I'm starting to get a little bit worried about his 490 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: health going forward. It's not a guy that's been able 491 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 2: to consistently play seventeen well sixteen and back in the day. 492 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 2: He's battled injuries. Cowboys have had to have a good 493 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 2: option as the backup at times because you know he's 494 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 2: he's injury I hate say injury prone about anyone, but 495 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 2: he's proven a had to have a few injury issues 496 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 2: in the NFL. So to me, I'm not trying to 497 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: get too carried away. But the storyline here isn't about 498 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 2: a deal or about the Cowboys moving on from him. 499 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 2: The storyline to me here is is this dude going 500 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 2: to be ready go when the season gets here. I 501 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 2: believe that he will. 502 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 3: It's probably more of a precautionary thing than anything at 503 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 3: this point in time. And by the way, even if 504 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 3: he is, I don't know if he's necessarily injury prone. 505 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 2: You're talking about two seasons. 506 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 3: He had the major injury a couple of years ago 507 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 3: where he played what four or five games If he 508 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 3: had two years ago he had played I think twelve 509 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 3: or thirteen. But generally speaking, he's been fairly durable throughout 510 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 3: his career. Now, whether this is going to be a 511 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 3: lingering foot issue that's gonna hamper him the remainder of 512 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,199 Speaker 3: his career, you know, none of us really know that. 513 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 3: Point one thing I do know the Cowboys are most likely, 514 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 3: just chances are not gonna do better than him when 515 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 3: it comes to hitting the open market for a quarterback 516 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 3: going into next offseason, whatever foot issue he's dealing with, 517 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 3: it will behoove him to try to find a way 518 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,719 Speaker 3: to get a contract extension done. Just knowing where these 519 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 3: quarterback contracts are going on, I know you're gonna feel 520 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 3: like you're overpaying him to a certain degree, but you're 521 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 3: the Cowboys. You're not going to be bad enough to 522 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 3: get to the top of the draft to be able 523 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 3: to draft, you know, an impact player at the quarterback position. 524 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 3: And even if you were, there's no guarantee that Caleb 525 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 3: Williams is going to be a superstar. We all think 526 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 3: he will be but you just never know what the 527 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 3: situation is going to be when you have a rookie quarterback. 528 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 3: So I think he rather dance with the devil that 529 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 3: you know than the devil that you don't. So while 530 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: they're playing around and not giving them a contract extension, 531 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 3: I don't really understand. If you're a team that has 532 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 3: designs of competing for a championship not only this year, 533 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 3: but next year and years after that, I really don't 534 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 3: understand why you're messing around and not being serious about 535 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: giving him a contract extension. It doesn't make a lot 536 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 3: of sense to me. It is very unfair right now. 537 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 2: Has he left a few games and then come back, Absolutely, 538 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 2: But in the last three seasons, in the last he's 539 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 2: only missed four starts, but in two of the last 540 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 2: four he's missed a lot of games. That includes that 541 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 2: devastating ankle injury. And some would say, well, yeah, he's 542 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 2: getting older, but it's very unfair. He's very unfair to 543 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 2: say that. And I also see what you're doing here, KF, 544 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 2: because I'm doing the same thing too. I realize there's 545 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,639 Speaker 2: a very good chance that he's going to be in 546 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 2: the Silver and Black next year if he hits the 547 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: open market. So now I'm trying to justify everything about him. 548 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 2: Get his arm angle. It's really good man. You guys 549 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 2: don't understand the leader that he is. He's not the problem. 550 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: The Cowboys are. The problem's working to us. See you work, yes, 551 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 2: Chris to a certain degree. And he's had his playoff shortcomings, 552 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 2: to say the least. This guy finished second in MVP 553 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: voting last year. Say what you want about him, he 554 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 2: has been as effective. He's a top ten regular season 555 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,479 Speaker 2: quarterback in the NFL. The numbers prove that out. Now. 556 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 3: Whether or not he's going to turn that into being 557 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 3: a playoff performer, eventually, none of us will ever know. 558 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 2: Let's put it this way, if he. 559 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,280 Speaker 3: Was on the open market, there would be a handful 560 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 3: of teams that will be lining up to sign him, 561 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 3: because that's how important the quarterback position is, and that's 562 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 3: how mediocre the position is for many teams in the league. 563 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 2: Right now. All right, when we come back to the 564 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 2: tyrack dot Com studios, I'm gonna dive in all the 565 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 2: highlights from last night, But first k Figgs gonna lay 566 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 2: the foundation with what's trending, what's going on?

But as far as the wild card 637 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 2: is concerned, only two gives back.

You won't hit a better first homer 646 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: to start your major league career. Game winner. 647 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 11: Final scar three too, as the rookies showered at home 648 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 11: play with love from his teammates.

The Padres have won six in 655 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 2: a row. They've cut the Dodgers lead to two and 656 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 2: a half, Diamondbacks get the win and the Dodgers get 657 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 2: to win. Last night, Giants, that walk off win was 658 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 2: their third in a row. And I don't even know 659 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 2: if we need to talk about. 660 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 3: The Rockies, donill The only reason you have mentioned the 661 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 3: Rockies is that they handed the Braves are sixth straight loss, 662 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 3: and the Braves are dropping precipitously out in the AL. 663 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: East or in l least excuse me, I mean speaking 664 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 2: of that three of the four teams in the in 665 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 2: the NL Easter currently on skids. Oh, but Phillis are 666 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 2: playing that great right now either. But the Dodgers get 667 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 2: something from show. Hey last night, listen. I know this 668 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 2: sounds odd to say, but listen to this home run 669 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 2: there goes for a second. Oh Telly, it's a high 670 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 2: five hol center. 671 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 6: Way back in doe two line home line shot, old 672 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 6: times thirty fifth of the season. 673 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 2: The Dodgers lead up three nothing. 674 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 3: Oh, you could just hear it off the bat and 675 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 3: the fact that you mentioned and that's a five point 676 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 3: seventy LA Sports on the call there. So you mentioned 677 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 3: the hearing it off the bat. So Dave Roberts after 678 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 3: the game said, he said, I'll play with the Barry 679 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 3: Bonds in San Francisco. And even he didn't have balls 680 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 3: jump off the bat the way showhy does big al 681 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 3: insane of a statement, that. 682 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 2: Is, are we in a position the Royal? We where 683 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: like suddenly thinking, dude, the West, the West is in 684 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: peril right now. Now, granted the Dodgers are getting healthy, Sure, 685 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 2: Mookie Betts is coming back. He's not gonna play short. 686 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 2: They're gona put him out in right field, at least 687 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 2: according to some of the or Now. I don't know 688 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 2: if that ends up factoring into him moving back to 689 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 2: short or if they feel better with the depth that 690 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,719 Speaker 2: they have, but sounds as if they'd rather have him 691 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 2: out there in right field. He feels more comfortable than 692 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 2: the right field. So they made that decision. 693 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 3: Dave Roberts pretty much confirmed it on Friday night before 694 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 3: the game. Yeah, is there panic at all? Well, panic 695 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 3: is strong. I'd say there's concern. The only reason there's 696 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 3: not panic is because, as you mentioned, they've had so 697 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 3: many injuries. The starting staff in the bullpen, Mookie Bets 698 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 3: Freddie miss time because of the health issues with his son, 699 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 3: so they've had so max months. He hasn't played in 700 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 3: two and a half months. He's going going to rehab 701 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,680 Speaker 3: a signon here pretty soon. So the thought is if 702 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 3: and when they can get themselves healthy and get these 703 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 3: guys enough at bats that they should should end up, 704 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 3: you know, end up being able to be fine towards 705 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,840 Speaker 3: the end of the season. If everybody was healthy and 706 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 3: they were struggling, it'd be a different story. I will 707 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 3: say they should be very concerned about a team like 708 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 3: Arizona who came on late last season and they seem 709 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 3: to be coming on again this. 710 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 2: Year and haven't even been fully healthy. You know. 711 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,359 Speaker 3: The Merrill Kelly I think is going to make his 712 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 3: first start of the season or our first start in 713 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 3: a while, I should say, on Sunday or Monday. 714 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 2: I believe their offense is coming. Could tell. 715 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 3: Marte has been one of the best players the National 716 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 3: League and is one of the front runners for National 717 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 3: League MVP. So Arizona even more so than San Diego. 718 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 3: I think is a team that a lot of people, 719 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 3: not just the Dodgers, the National League in general, should 720 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 3: really be afraid of. 721 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 2: Right now, when we come back to the ti rack 722 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 2: dot Com Studios, Oh, there's wide a receiver drama. But 723 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 2: there's one big name that's not at camp and it's 724 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 2: kind of flying under the radar. We'll dive into it 725 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 2: next on Fox Sports Radio. 726 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio, Hey. 727 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,359 Speaker 2: Don't forget.

Kevin Figures, I'm Chris Plank. We're coming 735 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 2: to you live from the tire rack dot Com Studios, 736 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: tire rack dot Com the way tire buying should be. 737 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 2: Now we're hitting all the Olympics, the preview of the 738 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 2: basketball game coming up the top, and next hour we'll 739 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 2: get into the drama involving Jason Tatum. And we got 740 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 2: a lot of college football because it's getting here. The 741 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 2: poll was released this week. You got two college football 742 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 2: dudes and kfigging myself. So we'll spend a lot of 743 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 2: hour number three getting into it. Plus I need Ian 744 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 2: Roddy to sell me on his Trojans bouncing back this year. 745 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 2: In the meantime, we hear all the Brandon Ayuk news, 746 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 2: all the CD Lamb news we can handle. I mean, 747 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 2: it is, would you say, over the top a little bit, 748 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 2: kfig with the amount of information we seem to be 749 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 2: getting on whether or not Ayuk is getting dealt our, 750 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 2: Jerry Jones is dissing CD Lamb. 751 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 3: There's a lot out there, there is, and a lot 752 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 3: of it doesn't make a lot of sense. One, Brandon 753 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 3: Ayuk is a good player, but this guy is not 754 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 3: the second coming of Randy Moss either. So the problem 755 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 3: is where he gets off asking for a Jinoma's contract 756 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 3: but then also trying to dictate where he goes to. 757 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 2: That amazes me. 758 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,760 Speaker 3: And then Jerry Jones, similar to the Dak Prescott situation, 759 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 3: it's come out publicly. It doesn't help yourself or help 760 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 3: your calls with cebe Lamb. Now, granted I realized that 761 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 3: you know CD is the one who's under contract and 762 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 3: he's he's holding out, so and eventually he's not going 763 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 3: to set out the entire season. You're just not helping yourself, 764 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 3: Jerry Jones. You come out and say that there's no 765 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 3: sense of urgency to bring him back in. How do 766 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 3: you just just say, you know what, we're dedicated to 767 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 3: try to bring him back in. CD is a part 768 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 3: of the Cowboys. We want to keep them that way. 769 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 3: What's wrong with the political answer? Because now you're just 770 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 3: you're just raising more questions and it allows CD to 771 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 3: send out a tweet which allows people like us to 772 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 3: talk more about these sort of things. 773 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, social media fights, you got, Yeah, you got now. 774 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 2: Somehow Amari Cooper gets dragged into this because he's got 775 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 2: He's been mentioned in the Brandon Ayuk trade rumors and 776 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 2: we're overanalyzing an Instagram post from Brandon from uh Mary 777 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 2: Cooper and then Brandon Ayuk is like calling out the 778 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 2: fan sites. 779 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,800 Speaker 3: This is NBA stuff in the usually, Chris, this is 780 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 3: unbecoming of the NFL. Typically, I did have. 781 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 2: A former wide receivers coach wants to tell me that 782 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 2: he likes to have dudes that are built kind of 783 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 2: like a power forward, and I was like, Oh, there 784 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 2: you go. That makes sense the wide receivers like NBA guys. 785 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 2: But let's just I don't know if this is putting 786 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 2: a cap on it or if this is trying just 787 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 2: to figure it out. Are uk lamb now Cooper, you 788 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 2: hear a lot about it. The DeVante Adams situation is 789 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 2: quiet because Davante's not even a camp right now. Correct. 790 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 2: And the child, I don't think he's going to be 791 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 2: at the game today in Minnesota. I'm not sure. I 792 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: don't I don't care. I think it's one of the 793 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 2: dumbest things most of these broadcasts that the local networks do. 794 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 2: It's cool for the local broadcasters, and I love seeing 795 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 2: dudes get a chance to call in NFL games that 796 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 2: don't normally do it. They'll be like Kurt Minifie calls 797 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 2: a game, and he doesn't call games, he's usually in 798 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: the studio. I think it's what Seattle. He's really good 799 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 2: at it, so I like watching and hearing him. But 800 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: all you end up doing with these starters that don't 801 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: play is interviewing them with their jersey on, and they 802 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 2: have no care about what's going on. So I don't 803 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,760 Speaker 2: care if Devanta Adams isn't at the game, But do 804 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,439 Speaker 2: we start to concern ourselves with him not being in camp. 805 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 2: I wanted to see his kid. I want him to 806 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 2: see the birth of his kid. Don't care about that. 807 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 2: But this going on for a while, now, kfig it 808 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 2: is I mean for him to be gone? 809 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,479 Speaker 3: I mean this has been what four or five days, 810 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 3: almost a better part of an entire week at this 811 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 3: point that he's been going away from the team. 812 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 7: Now. 813 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 3: Granted they were not at home in Vegas either. They 814 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 3: just broke camp I believe on Wednesday. Yeah, in coast 815 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,479 Speaker 3: Ta Mesa, near Los Angeles. So I guess he wanted 816 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 3: to be a little bit closer to his wife. Look, 817 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 3: if the game was in Las Vegas coming up later today, 818 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 3: maybe he'd be at the game. Maybe it'd be a 819 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 3: little bit different. I'm not one hundred percent sure. Am 820 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 3: I overly concerned about it? 821 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 12: No? 822 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 3: But I think the most pressing issue talking about all 823 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,319 Speaker 3: the receivers, I do think Devantae Adams probably has more 824 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 3: grounds than anybody to be a question mark as to 825 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 3: whether or not he's actually gonna stick with the team 826 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 3: he's on Because as of right now, as much as 827 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 3: I love the Raiders. I don't know if the arrow's 828 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 3: really pointing up for them this year as far as 829 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 3: being a playoff contender, I don't either. 830 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 2: He's very necessary, he's very nice, necessary for the Raiders 831 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 2: to be good this season, if if their offense is 832 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 2: gonna be good with the reports that are coming out 833 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,440 Speaker 2: as far as the quarterback situation is concerned. But here's 834 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 2: the thing. I know the salary CAP's real, and everyone 835 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 2: points out, you know, the dude's due seventeen million dollars 836 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: this season. So when you have more on so like 837 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 2: the Bills need to go get Davonte Adams. You're asking 838 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 2: him to take a nine million dollar pay cut to 839 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 2: try to make it work this season for him. You 840 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 2: can make you can make things work with the salary cap, 841 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 2: but inevitably that bill comes and I just he's not 842 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 2: getting traded. It's just not gonna happen. Now. Could something 843 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,439 Speaker 2: happen at the trade deadline? I don't know. I don't 844 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 2: think so. But when you start hearing go get him, 845 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 2: it's just it doesn't it doesn't work. It doesn't make sense. 846 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 2: When we come back to the Tirack dot Com Studios, 847 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 2: does the NBA make sense. We'll talk about it next. 848 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 849 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, sitting in for the fellas.

By the way, just on baby update, because 857 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 2: I'm sure there's a faction of fathers moms that are 858 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 2: up early on the in essential time zone, maybe even 859 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 2: on the on the West Coast, trying to get that 860 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,320 Speaker 2: kid back to bed. How is how's the little one sleeping? 861 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 2: Kfig How we doing? 862 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 3: I was doing well for about a week and a half, 863 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 3: and I think we've hit a newer term that I 864 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 3: hadn't heard until recently, called sleep regression. 865 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 2: So yeah, so apparently they sleep. 866 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 3: Well for a little bit of time, then all of 867 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 3: a sudden it kind of goes back cycles back to 868 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,320 Speaker 3: the beginning where they're sleeping for you know, two and 869 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,319 Speaker 3: a half three hours at a time, and then that 870 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 3: lasts for a few weeks. And I don't know if 871 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:58,800 Speaker 3: this is something you experienced though, not Chris back in 872 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 3: the day with your little ones at all, but it's 873 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 3: kind of something that we're going through. So you feel like, oh, 874 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 3: we've turned a corner. He's sleeping eight nine hours. Then 875 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, bam, Oh he only slept for 876 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 3: three and a half hours. Let's get him up, feed 877 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:10,839 Speaker 3: him and put him back down. Oh he only slept 878 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 3: for three and a half more hours. Let's go back 879 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 3: and do it again. So we're kind of at that 880 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 3: moment in time right now is kind of where we're sitting. 881 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 2: But it's good news. This is what I was always told. Okay, 882 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,760 Speaker 2: And again maybe I'm just trying to make you feel 883 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 2: good about this, Kfig. Apparently it's a sign of developmental progression. 884 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: That's why I hear okay, and that's what Google told me. 885 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 2: So good exactly same, by the way, we're pumped to 886 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: be here on a Saturday morning again, Anthony Gargano and 887 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,240 Speaker 2: Jason Fitzer out, but we'll still get you some Raiders 888 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 2: and Eagles talking here at some point because I have 889 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,160 Speaker 2: ear marked a lot of NFL talk for later on 890 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 2: in the program. But Kevin, I do feel like the 891 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 2: number one story of the day today is team USA 892 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 2: versus France. No Olympic basketball. Now, I ask this general question, 893 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 2: in your opinion and all y'all's opinion, how important is 894 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:16,760 Speaker 2: this for USA basketball? I mean, it's it's not. Everyone 895 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 2: wants to compare everything to the Dream Team, and I 896 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 2: don't know why we do this. It's I get it. 897 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 2: We got a lot of hours to fill, we got 898 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 2: a lot of debates to be had. But I mean, 899 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 2: in fairness, there was like one guy that played on 900 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 2: any of the overseas, any of the foreign teams for 901 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 2: you know, Portugal or Right and Gola, that played in 902 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 2: the NBA, and was Tony Koukoach. And he was young 903 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 2: and didn't have a lot of experience at that point. 904 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 3: He hadn't even played yet he got drafted, He didn't 905 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 3: even get planned and played yet. 906 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 2: I don't think now every team's roster in the Olympics, 907 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 2: every single team has at least a dude and multiple 908 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 2: dudes that play in the NBA. And I'll be giving 909 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:07,760 Speaker 2: you an example. I thought Thursday was amazing. I thought 910 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 2: the comfort behind win against Serbia was amazing. That's how 911 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 2: it was. I thought it was one of the coolest 912 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 2: Olympic moments I've seen in an era, In an era 913 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 2: where we debate about what the games mean to athletes, right, 914 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 2: we think the rob speaking for everyone here, for us 915 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 2: to jump on board with me, the royal. We feel 916 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 2: like it's about money, right, It's about cash. It's about 917 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 2: how much did you make? Are you now a movie star? 918 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,040 Speaker 2: Are you a music mogul? Are you this? Are you that? 919 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 2: Are you an entrepreneur like Kevin Durant. I mean, it's 920 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 2: just all these things seem to matter more than the 921 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,839 Speaker 2: game and winning. And when you see a moment like that, 922 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 2: and you I have looked at the still shots of 923 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 2: Joel Embiid, Steph Curry and Lebron James when they're face 924 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 2: to face, that moment with Kevin Durant with his fist 925 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 2: up after he hit the dagger three. I mean, I 926 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 2: don't know about you, k Fig. I love that. I 927 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 2: think it's awesome. It's like, oh, my gosh, basketball matters 928 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 2: to them. So I'm fired up, I'm pumped. I'm like, 929 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,359 Speaker 2: my gosh, I can't believe they came back and won 930 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 2: this game and I flip on my radio, I open 931 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 2: up my app I'm listening to my shows, and I 932 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 2: hear people that are saying, oh, what an embarrassment. I mean, 933 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:30,640 Speaker 2: have you guys watched International basketball? Arnie again wanted Steve 934 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 2: Kerr fired after the South Sudan exhibition game. It's an 935 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 2: exhibition game for an exhibit, you need to be fired. 936 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 2: And I understand a lot of it is you got 937 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 2: to play the bit and it's got to be tongue 938 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 2: in cheek. But to me, k fig, I thought that 939 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 2: was awesome and I was a little bit surprised by 940 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:51,840 Speaker 2: the reaction, and I in other words, here's a headlinem 941 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 2: big on headlines. Could you imagine the embarrassment of playing 942 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 2: in the bronze medal game? No, I couldn't because they won, 943 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 2: They came back and they won the game. And you're 944 00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,360 Speaker 2: playing a team that has a dude that's won the 945 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,840 Speaker 2: MVP almost on the rag. They should name it the 946 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 2: Nikola Jokic Award. And I don't care if you have 947 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 2: superstars all around. That dude's amazing. So I don't know 948 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 2: how you guys feel. We had a debate yesterday on 949 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 2: my local show on the ref one of our affiliates 950 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 2: in Norman, and it was is this something you celebrate 951 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 2: or is it something that you're embarrassed by? And I 952 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 2: would say a majority of the people that checked in, 953 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 2: hey man, it was awesome. We won. They won the game. 954 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 2: This is a team that has been like most NBA stories, 955 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 2: Kevin figures Team USA loaded with NBA players, has been 956 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:50,720 Speaker 2: dominated by drama. Is Jason Taitum playing? Is Kevin Durant healthy? 957 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 2: Why is Kawhi Leonard going home? Does Steve Kerr understand 958 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,439 Speaker 2: the rotations? Did they bring in the right now? Why 959 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 2: is Jalen Brown not here? And then whenever they get 960 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 2: out there in that moment where they're not playing their best, 961 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 2: it clicks and they win. And today they've got a 962 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 2: chance in what I think is a hostile environment. And 963 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:12,879 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, I'm sure Paris and France wants Team 964 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,320 Speaker 2: France to win, but there are a lot of NBA 965 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,720 Speaker 2: fans that are excited to have the opportunity to see 966 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 2: Lebron James and Steph Curry and Kevin Durant play in person. 967 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 2: So real quick, before we look ahead to today, how 968 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 2: did you view Thursday? Were you like me where you're 969 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 2: like It is awesome in a time when basketball has 970 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 2: become global and is as competitive as it's ever been. 971 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:34,919 Speaker 2: I love seeing Team USA go out there and still 972 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:35,800 Speaker 2: take care of business. 973 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 3: I'm with you and so, but it took me back 974 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 3: to two thousand and eight, the Redeem Team and Redeems. 975 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,560 Speaker 3: They ran over they ran rough, shot over some teams. 976 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 3: But that gold medal matchup they played against Spain, that 977 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 3: was the Gasal brothers and Abaca and Rudy Fernandez, like 978 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 3: loaded with NBA players, just like the Redeem Team was, 979 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 3: and that was like a three point game of like 980 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 3: ninety seconds left. Brian hit some big shots like that. 981 00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,520 Speaker 3: That was amazing, and that meant so much because we 982 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 3: had won gold and after the embarrassment and athletes in 983 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 3: two thousand and four, which was an embarrassment. 984 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 2: But now you fast. 985 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 3: Forward now to your point, and the context gets lost 986 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:11,959 Speaker 3: a lot of times. We're so used to the United 987 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,799 Speaker 3: States because it's our sport and we have all the 988 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:16,240 Speaker 3: best athletes, and you look at the NBA, it's mostly 989 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 3: American players. 990 00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 2: Although now I don't know if it's necessarily true. 991 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 3: Look at the All Star Game and tell me how 992 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 3: many players are actually pray for to play for Team 993 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,280 Speaker 3: USA VERSUS Canada or Serbia or somewhere else. 994 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 2: But I digress. 995 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 3: And also people also don't want to hear this, but 996 00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 3: it's the truth, whether you want to hear it or not. 997 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 3: These national teams play with each other a lot and 998 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 3: play together a lot more than our NBA talent does. 999 00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 3: We throw these guys together for a single summer and 1000 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 3: tell them, all right, let's figure this all out. Where 1001 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 3: a lot of these guys, you know, Jokich and Bogdanovich 1002 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 3: and these guys included, have been playing together since they 1003 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,919 Speaker 3: were kids, and so they have continuity. They do play 1004 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,120 Speaker 3: well together. So I thought it was phenomenal. I'd rather 1005 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 3: the United States not go down by seventeen points and 1006 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 3: have to have a mad scramble of late in the 1007 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 3: third and the fourth quarter to try to come back 1008 00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 3: and win. But how you cannot get a jolt of 1009 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 3: excitement and be fired up and seeing Kevin Durant and 1010 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,880 Speaker 3: Steph Curry and Lebron Steph Curry and Lebron James, who 1011 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:12,080 Speaker 3: face each other in the NBA Finals fifteen thousand consecutive years, 1012 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 3: bumping chess and exciting and celebrating the fact that they 1013 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 3: came back and kept their chances of winning gold alive. 1014 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 3: How do you not get fired up about something like that. 1015 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 3: I don't understand it. 1016 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 2: I feel I feel as if we become so greedy 1017 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 2: and in cynical that we were losing sight of the 1018 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:36,240 Speaker 2: fun of it. I mean, I'm just losing my mind 1019 00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 2: and hearing that it's embarrassment. How embarrassing is that that 1020 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,720 Speaker 2: it was a tight game. Well, they lost to France 1021 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 2: in the twenty twenty Olympics in the in the pool play. 1022 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 2: You know, was that embarrassing? Because they still won the 1023 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 2: gold medal and no one even remembers that. No one 1024 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 2: even remembers it, right, And the you know, the bottom 1025 00:49:56,200 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 2: line is, could this team have been put together differently? 1026 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 2: Maybe even better? Sure is Kevin figures one hundred percent 1027 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 2: right whenever he says it's a battle to get used 1028 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:14,919 Speaker 2: to everyone's nuances and mannerisms and practicing together matters absolutely, 1029 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:19,319 Speaker 2: But I can't I can't help but laugh whenever I 1030 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 2: just see this overall negative vibe because they played a 1031 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 2: close games, as once was infamously said a lot here 1032 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio, look at the game tape. Pay attention. 1033 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 2: It's not that hard now we're here for the casuals. 1034 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 2: I'm here for you on this because a lot of 1035 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 2: times you'll see a headline or a game's like, wow, 1036 00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 2: they were down seventeen, this must be terrible, and then 1037 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 2: you look at the Serbia roster you're like, oh my gosh. 1038 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 2: Now I did see a note this week, and I 1039 00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 2: can't remember which former NBA player brought it up, but 1040 00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 2: if the Yugoslavia men's basketball team, the men's national team 1041 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 2: would be unstopped right now? Yeah they could. 1042 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, if they could combine the forces again, yeah, if. 1043 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 2: They want to get back together, then we might really 1044 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 2: have an issue whatever comes to the Olympic Games. But 1045 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 2: the bottom line is it's it's a global game. You 1046 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 2: look at the NBA draft, man, it was all French 1047 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,320 Speaker 2: guys in the right the top in the draft. 1048 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 3: And that's where we're headed. That's where we're going. And 1049 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 3: I got news for people. This is not going to 1050 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 3: get any better for the United States. I just mentioned 1051 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 3: a second ago. How you look at the you mentioned 1052 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 3: the draft, look at the All Star Game. A lot 1053 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:37,359 Speaker 3: of the best players are not necessarily American, and it's 1054 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 3: trending more and more and more away from that direction. 1055 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 3: So I think our days of dominating basketball at an 1056 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:46,840 Speaker 3: international level are numbered. This is not to say that 1057 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 3: we're not going to win golds anymore, that we're not 1058 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 3: going to be We're still not going to be good. 1059 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 3: I just don't think it's going to be an automatic 1060 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 3: shoe win, that we're just gonna win gold every single 1061 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 3: solitary year, and that will be And also, Chris, it 1062 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 3: should not be a disappointment if we don't win gold 1063 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,880 Speaker 3: every single solitary year. I think is the greater point. 1064 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I kind of stepped back every now 1065 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:07,880 Speaker 2: and then, and I you know, I thoroughly I thoroughly 1066 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:11,000 Speaker 2: enjoyed the discourse, the debate, all the fun, right, it's 1067 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 2: it's part of it. I will never, for the life 1068 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:19,400 Speaker 2: of me, just understand the negativity. It's like, oh, I 1069 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,319 Speaker 2: Steve Kerrz watched this, they're playing the Golden Medal game. 1070 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 2: What do you want to do? What? What are you 1071 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 2: talking about? 1072 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:25,920 Speaker 12: Oh? 1073 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 2: They screwed up. Now they're finally getting it right with 1074 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 2: starting Durant. Well, I mean Darrant still played a lot 1075 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 2: of minutes. 1076 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 3: And for all the people clamoring for Jason Tatum, who 1077 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 3: was sitting like shooting like twenty percent from the field 1078 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:36,920 Speaker 3: or something like that. By the way, he's not like 1079 00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 3: when Jason's playing that he's dominating. Let's point that out too. 1080 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of that, I do want to 1081 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 2: talk about Jason Tatum a little bit when we come back. 1082 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 2: I really I don't want to say I have an 1083 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 2: issue with him by any stretch of the imagination, but 1084 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 2: I think there's better ways to handle your frustration to 1085 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 2: what Jason Tatum has done, or at least what it 1086 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 2: appears as he has done. But real quick, before we 1087 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 2: grab a break and get to that, is it kind 1088 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 2: of a captain obvious thing to say, Man, this is 1089 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 2: super important. This is big time for Team USA. This 1090 00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,799 Speaker 2: is a big time for a team USA basketball to 1091 00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:16,319 Speaker 2: fight through the NBA ization. By that, I mean the 1092 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 2: drama and the storylines that are all around it, and 1093 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 2: then of course win the gold medal on foreign turf 1094 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,959 Speaker 2: against the host I mean, I think it's a big deal. 1095 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 2: I also think that no matter what happens when they 1096 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 2: win gold, someone's gonna find something to grinch and mode about, 1097 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 2: because that's what we do. But on a level of importance, 1098 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 2: kfig pretty. 1099 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 3: High for them to win today extremely high and well, 1100 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,799 Speaker 3: especially considering the scrutiny they got earlier this week the 1101 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 3: Serbia game. Can you imagine if they lose this one 1102 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 3: and people are not going to take into account that 1103 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 3: the France to the French team has a bunch of 1104 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,319 Speaker 3: NBA players on it, or that they're playing all their 1105 00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 3: home turf, all they're gonna say is. 1106 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 2: This is the team, you guys, compare it to the 1107 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 2: Dream Team. The Dream Team wouldn't have struggled against France. 1108 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 3: It's like, well, if the Dream Team was playing against 1109 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 3: a roster full of NBA players, they probably would have 1110 00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 3: had a little bit of a sweat, just a little bit, 1111 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,719 Speaker 3: as opposed to all the guys that are playing back 1112 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 3: in the day. 1113 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 2: I just I don't understand. I think Brian know that 1114 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,920 Speaker 2: had thrown this out earlier this week, or maybe it 1115 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:13,880 Speaker 2: was last week, and we gotta stop comparing eras and 1116 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,560 Speaker 2: I know that we're never going to and I get it, 1117 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:18,439 Speaker 2: and I understand it, and it's part of the fun 1118 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:22,759 Speaker 2: of sports radio. But to make declarative statements, it's just 1119 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 2: it's dumb, right from the people from everyone that's like, oh, 1120 00:54:26,440 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 2: you know, Larry Bird and Team USA, would run circles 1121 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 2: around this team to those that are like, oh, the 1122 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 2: the athletes today are infinitely more talented than those in 1123 00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:40,160 Speaker 2: the in the nineties, it's just it's it's dumb, it's pointless, 1124 00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,839 Speaker 2: and bottom line, the Dream Team is one of the 1125 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 2: greatest collections of talent that we've ever seen, period. And 1126 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 2: they were playing against a bunch of people that weren't 1127 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 2: NBA players, that had professional basketball leagues, but there weren't 1128 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 2: a lot of NBA dudes they were playing. So you 1129 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 2: can't compare that carnage to today's. And what's even dumber 1130 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 2: is to try to compare anything to going forward that 1131 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 2: was a phenomenon. Is this a great collection of talent? 1132 00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 2: You bet it is. But let's just have fun and 1133 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:09,840 Speaker 2: enjoy it. Why does everything have to be a debate? 1134 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 2: Why does everything have to be a fight? Can't we 1135 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,279 Speaker 2: sit back and say, man, that was fun. Came back 1136 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 2: from seventeen down fun? Why who did you see how 1137 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:21,400 Speaker 2: much they cared about basketball? It was amazing For a moment. 1138 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,600 Speaker 2: It wasn't about well, you know, he's got a load manage, 1139 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,359 Speaker 2: he's got a load manage, or he's in the new 1140 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 2: remake of XYZ movie. It was about hoops. It's just 1141 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 2: embrace it, man, all right, not done with USA basketball 1142 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,759 Speaker 2: because when we come back, let's talk a little bit 1143 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 2: about Jason Tatum. How do you guys feel about the 1144 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 2: way that he's handling this or maybe you turn and 1145 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:47,840 Speaker 2: you say, oh, Plank, I've been here for the drama 1146 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 2: of it. This is Steve Kerr. He's got a bone 1147 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 2: to pick with Jason Tatum. We'll dive into it next. 1148 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,680 Speaker 2: And by the way, there's more than just basketball going on. 1149 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 2: Apparently there is a sport that we're supposed to dominate 1150 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 2: that we apparently suck at. We'll get to it next. 1151 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 2: Kevin Figures, I'm Chris Plank. It's the Fellas. I'm Fox 1152 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:10,919 Speaker 2: Sports Radio.

Anyway, we're hanging out 1158 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:32,919 Speaker 2: on a Saturday morning and it's funny because today Team 1159 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 2: USA plays for a goal in men's basketball. But real quick, 1160 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 2: we got to bring up something that is mind blowing 1161 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 2: to me. Why in the world, Kevin figures, can we 1162 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:50,440 Speaker 2: not complete a four by one hundred meter relay with 1163 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 2: our men's track and field team? 1164 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 3: We thought it looking like an SNL skit or something. 1165 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,840 Speaker 3: According to a report from. 1166 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 2: Ruters Reuters, I've always get it, really, The US has 1167 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:07,719 Speaker 2: now had eleven dropped batons, disqualifications or bands in the 1168 00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 2: Olympics and World Championships since nineteen ninety five. The team 1169 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 2: hasn't medaled in the four medaled in the four x 1170 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 2: one hundred relay since taking silver twenty years ago at 1171 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:26,520 Speaker 2: the four Athens Games. The team's last gold medal was 1172 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 2: at the two thousand Sydney Olympics, and prior to that, 1173 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:36,640 Speaker 2: team USA had won this event fifteen times, which is 1174 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 2: thirteen more than any other nation. Now, I'm not a 1175 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 2: track and field guy, and I'm not going to sit 1176 00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 2: here and try to act like I know the nuances 1177 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 2: of the baton passing or any of that. In fact, 1178 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 2: I've been slow my whole life. I was not even 1179 00:57:52,200 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 2: a dude that can say when I ran track and 1180 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 2: field in high school, kfake. I can't. I never did, 1181 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 2: so I don't understand the true nuances of it. I 1182 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 2: see Carl Lewis speaking out about it. He went off, 1183 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:07,480 Speaker 2: he he did what in the world. It's wild. The 1184 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 2: US is dominating track and field, the men are dominating 1185 00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:15,439 Speaker 2: track and field, and yet you can't win the four 1186 00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:17,400 Speaker 2: by one hundred men's relay. 1187 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 3: And I don't know know or care if Noah Lyles 1188 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 3: would have been there or not, if it would have 1189 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 3: really made a difference, to be honest, if guys can't 1190 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 3: complete a simple and also, like you, Chris, I didn't 1191 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,680 Speaker 3: run track, you know, never been a fast guy. So 1192 00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,480 Speaker 3: I say you can't execute something as simple as doing 1193 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 3: a handoff. Come on, please note, these are guys that 1194 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:38,920 Speaker 3: do this for a living. This is their livelihood. And 1195 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 3: we have been to your point, what fifteen straight years 1196 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,360 Speaker 3: or whatever, we meddled or dominated the sport for How 1197 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 3: could we have fallen off that precipitously and for this long. 1198 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:50,919 Speaker 3: That's the part that doesn't make a lot of sense. 1199 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 3: We clearly have the athletes and we were We're dominating, 1200 00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 3: you know, the one hundred and many of these other 1201 00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:59,080 Speaker 3: individual events. We're doing just fine. So what is the 1202 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:02,680 Speaker 3: shortfall here? Carl Lewis said it was something political to 1203 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 3: do with it, so basically implying that we're not sending 1204 00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 3: our best athletes, or at least not the best guy 1205 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 3: guys for this particular event. So I don't know if 1206 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 3: we're picking more individuals and we're trying to get more 1207 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 3: sponsorship money for individual guys as opposed to guys who 1208 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:17,040 Speaker 3: would be better off from a team standpoint. I don't 1209 00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 3: know one thousand percent know what he means. But whatever, 1210 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 3: whatever we're doing, we I'll say, as the United States 1211 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:23,959 Speaker 3: is not working. 1212 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 2: Carl Lewis's tweet that KFIG is referring to, it's time 1213 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:34,440 Speaker 2: to blow up the system. This continues to be completely unacceptable. 1214 00:59:34,840 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 2: It is clear that everyone at any adds at USA 1215 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 2: Track and Field is more concerned with relationships than winning. 1216 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 2: No athlete should step on the track and run another 1217 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:52,520 Speaker 2: relay until this program is changed from top to bottom. 1218 00:59:52,840 --> 00:59:56,200 Speaker 2: That's heavy, man, that's it is hardcore. I don't again, 1219 00:59:56,240 --> 01:00:02,120 Speaker 2: I don't understand the nuances, but I mean imagine dominated, 1220 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 2: well not imagine we're we the royal we we're Americans 1221 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 2: are dominating track and field and the four by one 1222 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 2: hundred women's relay was one of the coolest things. Sarry 1223 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 2: Richardson has become a rock star, you know. And I've 1224 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:20,240 Speaker 2: become even a bigger fan realizing everything that she has 1225 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 2: gone through and knowing the dominance she could have had 1226 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 2: four years ago, and we banned her for weed as 1227 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:34,440 Speaker 2: she dealt with a family tragedy, and we've vilified for 1228 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 2: a lot of people too. You know, I have become 1229 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 2: the biggest Shikari Richardson fan on the planet because of 1230 01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 2: the way she's handled it. I mean, people were acting 1231 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 2: like and I get it. I get when you know 1232 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,520 Speaker 2: you're getting tested. We talked about it with the NFL 1233 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 2: combine a lot. If you know what's coming, how the 1234 01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 2: hell you get in busted? But I don't know, man, 1235 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 2: I'm pretty I have both my parents. I don't know 1236 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:55,200 Speaker 2: how I would handle if I lost them. I know 1237 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:56,720 Speaker 2: I didn't handle losing my grandparents. 1238 01:00:56,720 --> 01:01:00,560 Speaker 3: Well. Fall takes a backseat when something that heavily emotional 1239 01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 3: happens to you. 1240 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 2: As all of us, she has become a rock star. Yeah, 1241 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 2: but you out on the mids side. We can't even 1242 01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 2: hand off the damn baton. It's really sad. 1243 01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 3: She was about embarrassing and men's basketball and you know, 1244 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 3: having it come back from seventeen down at least they won. 1245 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:20,120 Speaker 3: I think it disqualify for a drop on the baton, Like, 1246 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 3: you know, what are we talking about? There's levels of 1247 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 3: embarrassment here. There really are in two thousand and four 1248 01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:29,320 Speaker 3: and Athens we at least got the bronze, right, you know, yeah, 1249 01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:31,960 Speaker 3: let's talk Let's talk about embarrassment for a second. 1250 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,480 Speaker 2: That's embarrassment. What's kind of funny though, I think my 1251 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 2: new favorite thing on the intrawebs, it definitely is on Twitter, 1252 01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:42,320 Speaker 2: are the memes with some fat, out of shape guy 1253 01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:45,479 Speaker 2: watching the Olympics and watching someone fall. They suck. 1254 01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:48,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the old men still are from dodge at 1255 01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:51,840 Speaker 3: the end of Dodgeball scene exactly the very end. 1256 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,480 Speaker 2: All right, so four by one hundred meter relay an 1257 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 2: epic failure, but basketball has not been an epic failure. 1258 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 2: Now all come be live the Tirack dot Com studios. 1259 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,400 Speaker 2: I want to admit a fault here, gentlemen. I want 1260 01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 2: to admit I want to admit a mistake I made. 1261 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:10,400 Speaker 2: Now I try to be a little bit more technologically advanced. 1262 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 2: I try to send a rundown, at least in my 1263 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,440 Speaker 2: version of what we want to talk about. And unlike 1264 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:17,720 Speaker 2: my partner on Sunday Nights, Arnie Spanier, who will do 1265 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:19,360 Speaker 2: Roman numerals, and he had. 1266 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 3: Have you you've done a show with Art, I've seen 1267 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,520 Speaker 3: his chicken scratch with that he has written on a 1268 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 3: you know, a leaflet that he'll streend. 1269 01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, he has a yellow note pad and he uses 1270 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 2: Roman numerals to run down what he wants to talk about. 1271 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 2: And then when you ask him, it's like, hey, what 1272 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:36,760 Speaker 2: do you mean by this? His responses why I sent 1273 01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:38,920 Speaker 2: you the text? Sent you to text like I don't know, 1274 01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:42,040 Speaker 2: like like a month ago, did you see it? So 1275 01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:45,240 Speaker 2: there's producer ring that struggles a little bit with my 1276 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:48,680 Speaker 2: man stinking genius. I made a mistake in my rundown 1277 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:52,080 Speaker 2: because I wanted to throw a Twitter question asked out 1278 01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 2: this hour and I'll post it here in a bit. 1279 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 2: And the original thought, the original question was do you 1280 01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 2: agree with the way Jason Tatum has handled not playing. 1281 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 2: It's not Jason Tatum saying anything though. I mean that's 1282 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:06,360 Speaker 2: the point that we need to step back here. Everyone 1283 01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 2: is like white nighting for Jason Tatum. I mean the 1284 01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 2: dude just won an NBA title. I don't. I don't 1285 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 2: think he's complained out. Is he pouting a little bit? 1286 01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe, but I'm not. I'm watching the game. 1287 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:22,200 Speaker 2: I'm not over analyzing Jason Tatum's mannerisms on the bench. 1288 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:27,120 Speaker 2: But I will say this boy did did a Celtics 1289 01:03:27,240 --> 01:03:32,840 Speaker 2: legend fire off a few salvos yesterday because and again 1290 01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:34,960 Speaker 2: this sounds terrible of me, but it was one of 1291 01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:36,640 Speaker 2: those moms where like, oh my gosh, Bob Cooz, he's 1292 01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 2: still with us. I had no idea. I mean, yeah, sorry, 1293 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 2: I'm just being honest. I'm with you. So, the ninety 1294 01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 2: six year old was interviewed by Dan Shaughnessy of the 1295 01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 2: Boston Globe, and he laid out this theory on Jason 1296 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:54,600 Speaker 2: Tatum that basically, Steve Kerr is going out of his 1297 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 2: way to embarrass one of your players by not playing him. Quote, 1298 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:03,800 Speaker 2: this isn't just a snub. This is an embarrassment for 1299 01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 2: that poor kid. All over the bleeping world, the Olympics 1300 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 2: have gotten that big. Everyone's going to think that there's 1301 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 2: something wrong with this kid. Somebody from Boston should stand 1302 01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:17,360 Speaker 2: up for this kid. In my judgment. This is going 1303 01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 2: out of your way to embarrass one of your players. 1304 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 2: So well, I mean, Bostonians love you guys, right, and 1305 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 2: Bob Coosey's a legend, so I'll never say anything negative 1306 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 2: about him. But I mean, first of all, Jason Tatum's 1307 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 2: not a kid. I mean to a ninety six year old, 1308 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 2: he might be, but really, and then number two, he 1309 01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 2: started him in the game after he didn't play him 1310 01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:44,760 Speaker 2: correct And Jason Tatum hasn't really been playing all that 1311 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 2: well either for Team USA. Everyone's what about Jason Tatum. Well, 1312 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 2: he's not doing what Kevin Duran is doing. He's not 1313 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 2: doing what Lebron is doing, and that's the position he's 1314 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,800 Speaker 2: gonna play. You gotta take Lebron out of there. No, 1315 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 2: why do we feel need to be losing our minds 1316 01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 2: over minutes for Jason Tatum. 1317 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 3: Maybe it's an immediacy bias because he just won the 1318 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 3: NBA Finals by the way, did not win Finals MVP 1319 01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:12,960 Speaker 3: for those who might forget that, Jaylen Brown did that. 1320 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:16,760 Speaker 3: But look, and the only thing Tatum said I think 1321 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 3: was right around the end of the exhibition schedule going in. 1322 01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 3: Maybe it was after their first victory in pool play. 1323 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 2: Or he was. 1324 01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:24,600 Speaker 3: Someone asked him why he wasn't playing or how he 1325 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:26,760 Speaker 3: felt about not playing, and he was the worst thing 1326 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 3: he said was I don't know, you know, I just 1327 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,480 Speaker 3: you know, multiple time All Star, just won the NBA Finals, 1328 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 3: signed a big time contract, but I guess it's not 1329 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 3: in the cars for me to play right now. I'm paraphrasing, 1330 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 3: but that's exactly what he said. We paraphrase it perfect, Yeah, 1331 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 3: which is fine. The guy's a competitor, he wants to play. 1332 01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:45,520 Speaker 3: But he hasn't caused any disruption to your point, Chris, 1333 01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 3: he hasn't come out and said anything. Everybody's just out 1334 01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 3: here caping up for him and feeling sorry and playing 1335 01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:50,960 Speaker 3: the smallest violin. 1336 01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum is fine. If they end up winning, he's. 1337 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 3: Gonna get a gold medal like everybody else, Nobody Fifteen 1338 01:05:57,800 --> 01:05:59,320 Speaker 3: years from now, I was gonna pull up the box 1339 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:02,520 Speaker 3: score or the averages and say, damn, Jayson Tatum really 1340 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:03,360 Speaker 3: didn't play all that well. 1341 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:04,400 Speaker 2: Do he deserve a gold medal? 1342 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 3: Is his gold medal worth a lot less than Lebron 1343 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,240 Speaker 3: James because Lebron played twenty minutes a night and Jason 1344 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 3: Tatum barely Nobody cares. Larry Bird barely played for the 1345 01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 3: Dream Team. People don't even remember Larry Bird could barely walk. Yeah, 1346 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 3: when that happened. He has such a terrible back injury 1347 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,400 Speaker 3: at that point in time, he barely even played. 1348 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:22,640 Speaker 2: He played garbage minutes. But when you talk. 1349 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:24,720 Speaker 3: About the Dream Team, it was Burn and it was Magic, 1350 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:27,000 Speaker 3: and it was Magic was older too, by the way, 1351 01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 3: and that took the entire year off from the NBA 1352 01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:33,960 Speaker 3: because he was dealing with the HIV news. But all 1353 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,440 Speaker 3: these things get lost in context. A longer and longer 1354 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:38,640 Speaker 3: time goes by, you just get it gets all thrown 1355 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,800 Speaker 3: in into Malcolm. So nobody is gonna care fifteen twenty 1356 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 3: years from now if Jason Tatum doesn't end up having 1357 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 3: a major impact in these Olympics, all they're gonna say 1358 01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,120 Speaker 3: is he wanted gold medal. 1359 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:51,480 Speaker 2: What I just want to put a rap on the 1360 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,080 Speaker 2: Bob Cusey quote from Dan shawn Cy's Boston Globe article. 1361 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 2: Tatum is on the cover of Sports Illustrated this month. 1362 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:00,480 Speaker 2: Any experts that I've read lately have chose him in 1363 01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:03,600 Speaker 2: the top five and sometimes number one in the bleeping world. 1364 01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:06,200 Speaker 2: Now Kerr is telling the world that he doesn't agree 1365 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,240 Speaker 2: in a forty minute game if you can't find five 1366 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:11,800 Speaker 2: minutes to play somebody on the team without hurting yourself. 1367 01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:14,440 Speaker 2: When Kerr did it last week, he was in no 1368 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 2: danger of losing the game. But in this case, they 1369 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:20,080 Speaker 2: got down seventeen points and he's got to worry about 1370 01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:22,920 Speaker 2: losing the game and then to not let Tatum get 1371 01:07:22,960 --> 01:07:25,520 Speaker 2: off the bench. To me, there's got to be some 1372 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,840 Speaker 2: kind of bias that he's got against the Celtics. He's 1373 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:33,720 Speaker 2: not alone there now again, Bob Coozy or anyone else 1374 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 2: who's white nighting here for Jason Tatum and trying to 1375 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:39,200 Speaker 2: come up with some sort of Celtics bias. I do 1376 01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:43,360 Speaker 2: want to remind everyone that Jason, Drew, Holliday and Derek 1377 01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 2: White both played for the Celtics and they're averaging about 1378 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,080 Speaker 2: nineteen and sixteen minutes per game. 1379 01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,720 Speaker 3: Drew is starting every single game they've played. He has 1380 01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:55,840 Speaker 3: started every single one. Oh my gosh, I. 1381 01:07:55,800 --> 01:07:59,360 Speaker 2: Don't Jason Tatum maybe his game just you know, there's 1382 01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:01,600 Speaker 2: certain guys, and I know we're running lay, we'll get 1383 01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:05,080 Speaker 2: the update. There's certain guys that just in the international game, 1384 01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:10,080 Speaker 2: it clicks. Kevin Durant Carmelo Anthony, Right, it's just always 1385 01:08:10,120 --> 01:08:14,680 Speaker 2: clicked for them. And maybe first of all, Tam hasn't 1386 01:08:14,680 --> 01:08:17,280 Speaker 2: played all that well and you're just gonna go with 1387 01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:20,000 Speaker 2: guys that are that it's working. You also have a 1388 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,800 Speaker 2: shorter game which needs to be factor into this. But 1389 01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 2: stop it. I mean there's roles that you play too 1390 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:26,240 Speaker 2: like people. 1391 01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:28,479 Speaker 3: That's the argument about Derek White is like, well, why 1392 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,639 Speaker 3: would Derek White play and not Jason Tatum. 1393 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:31,920 Speaker 2: Well, Derek White doesn't need the ball. 1394 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:35,080 Speaker 3: Jason Tatum generally speaking, is an ISO guy or it 1395 01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:36,800 Speaker 3: works best when he has the ball in his hands, 1396 01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 3: and tim Usa has a bunch of guys who operate 1397 01:08:39,320 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 3: best with the ball in their hands. 1398 01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:41,360 Speaker 2: You need an off ball guy. 1399 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 3: That's why it makes a lot more sense to have 1400 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 3: someone like Derek White in there with certain units. 1401 01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 2: It's not rocket science. You're treating Jason Tatum unfairly. You 1402 01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:55,560 Speaker 2: hate the Celtic Steve Kerr. Meanwhile, Derek, Derek White and 1403 01:08:56,600 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 2: Drew Holliday are playing incredible minutes. Hold out, mister Cooozie. 1404 01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 2: But I appreciate you standing up for that poor kid. 1405 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:07,439 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum, Yes, Wallas, he enjoys it. 1406 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, what was he in his three hundred million dollar 1407 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 3: contract and in an NBA championship ring. 1408 01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:15,719 Speaker 2: Yes, when we come back to the tyrack dot Com Studios, 1409 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:18,120 Speaker 2: we got a big NFL day on hand. We'll preview 1410 01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 2: it next, but first, k Figs got everything that's trended. 1411 01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:22,240 Speaker 2: What's going on, Kevin Figures? 1412 01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 3: All right, Well, we'll go to the Baseball Diamond from 1413 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 3: Friday night. With a Dodger snapping a two game losing streak. 1414 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 3: They defeat the Pirates nine to five. Jack Flaherty getting 1415 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:32,719 Speaker 3: the victory. He struck out ten. It was his Dodgers' 1416 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:36,200 Speaker 3: home debut, Shohel Tani hitting his thirty fifth home run 1417 01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:39,360 Speaker 3: leading the National League. There, Seattle's shutting out the Mets, 1418 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 3: Houston defeating Boston, so the Astros with the half game 1419 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,920 Speaker 3: lead over the Mariners in the American League West. The 1420 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:48,000 Speaker 3: Rangers Yankee game was rained out. Baltimore got a victory 1421 01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,599 Speaker 3: over Tampa Bay, so Baltimore has a half game lead 1422 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:53,280 Speaker 3: over the Yanks for top billing. In the American League East. 1423 01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:55,919 Speaker 3: It was the Cardinals eight and the Royals five. Milwaukee, 1424 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 3: San Diego and the Twins with victories. The Twins with 1425 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 3: two wins. Actually they swept a double head over Cleveland. 1426 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 3: Guardians have lost seven straight games. In the NFL preseason action, 1427 01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:07,600 Speaker 3: CJ Strout with a touchdown pass to tang Dell in 1428 01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:10,439 Speaker 3: limited action, but the Texans did defeat Pittsburgh justin fields, 1429 01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:12,879 Speaker 3: by the way, getting the start sixty seven yards. Passing, 1430 01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 3: did fumble a couple of times and was sacked twice 1431 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 3: as well. Olympic events of note today include US women's soccer. 1432 01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:21,280 Speaker 3: They will take on Brazil in the gold medal match 1433 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,080 Speaker 3: today at eleven am Eastern. The US men's basketball team, 1434 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 3: as we were just discussing, we'll take on France and 1435 01:10:25,840 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 3: the gold medal matchup at three point thirty eastern. 1436 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:31,719 Speaker 2: Back to the Fellas. I guess maybe my bottom line 1437 01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 2: here in the Jason Tatum situation is, to me, it's 1438 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 2: a big nothing burger, you know, when you have that 1439 01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:43,320 Speaker 2: many all stars, Unfortunately someone's not gonna play. Yeah, And 1440 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:46,760 Speaker 2: I just don't I don't think there is some agenda 1441 01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:49,760 Speaker 2: from Steve Kerr. I don't think he hates the Celtics. 1442 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:50,760 Speaker 2: I think they want to win. 1443 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,240 Speaker 3: I remember the redem team in two thousand and eight 1444 01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:56,599 Speaker 3: and how deep that team was and all the great players. Yeah, 1445 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:58,960 Speaker 3: like Michael Rhan, who at that point in time was 1446 01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:01,640 Speaker 3: probably does the best shooter in the NBA, if not 1447 01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:03,439 Speaker 3: one of the best shooters in the NBA, could not 1448 01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 3: get off the bench, barely played in the Olympics, and 1449 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:08,160 Speaker 3: this guy was averaging twenty six twenty seven points a 1450 01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 3: night in the NBA. 1451 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:13,200 Speaker 2: Is anybody complaining about that? No? No, I mean you 1452 01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:15,479 Speaker 2: have a roster that deep in, that talented. 1453 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 3: Somebody has to not play, like everybody's not gonna be 1454 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:20,280 Speaker 3: able to play every single night. 1455 01:11:21,320 --> 01:11:24,000 Speaker 2: I do, though, appreciate Bob Coosey's rant that he was 1456 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,639 Speaker 2: on the cover of Sports Illustrate. It still matters to him. 1457 01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:28,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, I thought Sports Illustrator went 1458 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:30,520 Speaker 3: out of busess. I didn't realize they was still making publications. 1459 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:33,760 Speaker 2: I took my daughter to a bookstore the other day 1460 01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:37,479 Speaker 2: and on the they still have the periodical section where 1461 01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:39,360 Speaker 2: they have some newspapers you can buy, and they have 1462 01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:42,639 Speaker 2: all of the magazines, and I noticed that Gail King 1463 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,760 Speaker 2: was on the cover the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Matt which 1464 01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:48,400 Speaker 2: which I'm a little bit shook by. But yeah, okay, gee, 1465 01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:51,920 Speaker 2: I'm I'm forty nine. Now. I stopped caring about the 1466 01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:54,559 Speaker 2: swimsuit issued about nineteen. I was gonna say, you're at 1467 01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 2: twenty years old. Yeah right, I'm not twenty anymore. But 1468 01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 2: I love whenever an old school person like mister Cooozy, 1469 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 2: Bob Coosey, whenever he's diving into his frustrations, he's like 1470 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,400 Speaker 2: and he was just he was just written about in 1471 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:11,800 Speaker 2: the newspaper. They wrote an article about him in the newspaper. 1472 01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:14,360 Speaker 2: He was on the cover of Sports Illustrated. It's like, 1473 01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,160 Speaker 2: call down, Bob, It's gonna be okay, man. Today we 1474 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 2: have a boatload of NFL games, and I could go 1475 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:26,920 Speaker 2: through each game, and we're going to as the day progresses. 1476 01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:29,800 Speaker 2: But for the sake of time in this segment, let 1477 01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:32,040 Speaker 2: me give you the two early starts. I had a 1478 01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:34,040 Speaker 2: friend that used to call early games the Wake and 1479 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:36,600 Speaker 2: Bake Special. Don't know what that means. Don't know what 1480 01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:41,240 Speaker 2: that means, Jay Sean, teach me. But at car it's 1481 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:46,640 Speaker 2: Shikari codright noon Eastern eleven am Central, nine am Pacific. 1482 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 2: Love it this morning. You get the Commanders and the Jets. 1483 01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:55,760 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers isn't gonna play, but Jane Daniels is in 1484 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,559 Speaker 2: count me among those who's intrigued. You know, I try 1485 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 2: not to get too carried away with the practice reports 1486 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:06,559 Speaker 2: and the preseason buzz and this guy standing out, I 1487 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,360 Speaker 2: try not to. I do and I try not to. 1488 01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 2: Buzz seems to be pretty good around the LSU Heisman 1489 01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 2: Trophy winning quarterback in Jane Daniels. And I gotta be 1490 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:18,280 Speaker 2: honest with you, Kfig. Yes, I love the idea of 1491 01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:21,040 Speaker 2: seeing Terry McLaurin go up against Sauce Gardner, But are 1492 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:23,800 Speaker 2: either one of them gonna play? Course? Yes, I love 1493 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:27,080 Speaker 2: to think about. You know what this new look Washington 1494 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,759 Speaker 2: team is gonna look like under Dan Quinn and its defense, 1495 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,960 Speaker 2: But it's gonna be dialed back. But I'm excited to 1496 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:36,080 Speaker 2: see what Jane Daniels looks like. I'm intrigued. This is 1497 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:39,439 Speaker 2: to me one of the all time greatest improvements for 1498 01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:43,479 Speaker 2: a player in college football history. When he left Arizona State. 1499 01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:47,080 Speaker 2: When he decided to transfer to LSU, there were dudes, 1500 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:49,599 Speaker 2: I don't want to say stealing them. I've been taking 1501 01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:52,439 Speaker 2: things from his locker and on video saying this guy 1502 01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,040 Speaker 2: sucks anyway, and he was terrible when he was at 1503 01:13:55,080 --> 01:13:58,559 Speaker 2: Arizona State. He goes to LSU and wins a Heisman Trophy, 1504 01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:01,240 Speaker 2: the wildest thing. Yeah, and then he ends up as 1505 01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 2: the second pick in the draft. So I love that storyline. 1506 01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:06,120 Speaker 2: And then in the other early game, I mean, listen, 1507 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:08,799 Speaker 2: low hanging fruit here, we get to see Caleb Williams. 1508 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:09,240 Speaker 2: That's right. 1509 01:14:09,479 --> 01:14:11,400 Speaker 3: You get to see the first overall pick in action, 1510 01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:13,360 Speaker 3: something we wanted to see last week. 1511 01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 2: So I'm looking forward to that. Andy. Granted, like, how 1512 01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:17,200 Speaker 2: much are they going to show who is going to 1513 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:17,679 Speaker 2: play against? 1514 01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:19,200 Speaker 3: He's going to play against a lot of the ones, 1515 01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 3: most likely not, but it's just the excitement and the 1516 01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:24,120 Speaker 3: intrigue to be able to see. We've been hearing all 1517 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:26,360 Speaker 3: the great things about camp and I'll great these guys. Look, 1518 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:30,200 Speaker 3: even if it's going to be against regular shale crazy 1519 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:32,760 Speaker 3: you know, not crazy defenses, you at to very least 1520 01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:34,600 Speaker 3: get to see them in an NFL uniform on an 1521 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:39,720 Speaker 3: NFL field, playing against pseudo NFL talents, right, and see 1522 01:14:39,760 --> 01:14:40,599 Speaker 3: what these guys have made. 1523 01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:42,800 Speaker 2: Of a little bit. When we come back to the 1524 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,360 Speaker 2: tyrack dot com studios, we'll hit storylines for the rest 1525 01:14:45,360 --> 01:14:46,960 Speaker 2: of the games.

He love how cool is 1528 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:54,760 Speaker 2: This is why West Coast football is the best. It's 1529 01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,040 Speaker 2: Kevin Figures. I'm Chris playing.

Unfortunately, I'm watching the Bronze Metal match right now. 1552 01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:09,120 Speaker 2: In handball, I just it's Denmark and Sweden. I just 1553 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:11,599 Speaker 2: saw the worst penalty shot attempt that I've ever seen 1554 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,360 Speaker 2: in my life, and I don't know anything about the 1555 01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:16,160 Speaker 2: rules of handball. I tweeted this the other day. I 1556 01:16:16,200 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 2: was watching I think it was France play and everyone 1557 01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:21,240 Speaker 2: was losing their mind about it's. Oh, this is amazing. 1558 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 2: I'm like, this is the dumbest thing I've ever watched 1559 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:25,840 Speaker 2: in my life. You're not entertained by the handball. I 1560 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:28,720 Speaker 2: think that's incredible. Oh now, I will say, you get 1561 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 2: down to the final minutes and I'm like, oh, this 1562 01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:31,920 Speaker 2: is cool. But then I'm like, don't I don't know 1563 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,720 Speaker 2: what what means? What like are they not allowed to 1564 01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 2: go into that painted area? Can they only throw it 1565 01:16:37,200 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 2: from behind the line? 1566 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:38,720 Speaker 1: Like? 1567 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 2: What are what are the rules here? And what's the 1568 01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:44,960 Speaker 2: strategy and why do we suck at it? Have we 1569 01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:47,760 Speaker 2: even been to the Olympics and handball? It seems I 1570 01:16:47,800 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 2: could be a sport kind of like curling that a 1571 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 2: bunch of nerds would get together and be really good. 1572 01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:54,280 Speaker 2: Oh no, let's Canadians. Are you say that now? Sorry? 1573 01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 2: Sorry friends up North Gemta. You know, I forgot one 1574 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 2: storyline that I've intrigued by with the Bears today. Okay, 1575 01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:02,599 Speaker 2: I think rom Doonsay is going to be a stud. 1576 01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 2: I agree, I think he's going to be a stud. 1577 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:06,679 Speaker 2: And maybe it was a hot take. 1578 01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:08,280 Speaker 3: I was one of the few who said, you know what, 1579 01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 3: maybe I would consider it taking over Marvin Harrison. 1580 01:17:10,760 --> 01:17:14,560 Speaker 2: There's a stat that PFF tracks they call explosive reception. 1581 01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:17,599 Speaker 2: You know we're talking college football versus the NFL. Sure, 1582 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:22,160 Speaker 2: but he had forty eight explosive receptions in twenty twenty three. 1583 01:17:22,680 --> 01:17:25,920 Speaker 2: So count me is is someone intrigued by Roe Madoon say? 1584 01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 2: And then you know, k fake. I'm kind of proud 1585 01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 2: of myself. Through two hours, I've only had the Aid 1586 01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:35,120 Speaker 2: and O'Connell vy Gardner Minshew conversation once for two seconds. 1587 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:38,400 Speaker 2: It's like dominated my mind, Like what the hell is 1588 01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:42,160 Speaker 2: going on here fire Tom to LESCo. But you do 1589 01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 2: have two teams that are of the what four or 1590 01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:47,000 Speaker 2: five NFL teams that are in the midst of quarterback 1591 01:17:47,280 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 2: battle right now squaring off right and from everything that 1592 01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:53,599 Speaker 2: I've seen, all four are going to play Minshew and 1593 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:55,799 Speaker 2: O'Connell and O'Connor are going to play for the Raiders, 1594 01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 2: and JJ McCarthy and Sam darneld are going to play 1595 01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:00,519 Speaker 2: for the Vikings. Donald's going to get the start now. 1596 01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:03,599 Speaker 2: Both teams obviously are they're not going to see Justin 1597 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,800 Speaker 2: Jefferson and DeVante Adams isn't even with the Raiders right 1598 01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 2: now as he waits the birth of his child. But 1599 01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:13,880 Speaker 2: I think it's one of the sexier matchups today, not 1600 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,040 Speaker 2: because I think either team necessarily is going to go 1601 01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 2: out and win their division or anything of that nature, 1602 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:19,640 Speaker 2: even though I think the Raiders are going to win 1603 01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:21,679 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl every year. At this time, I truly 1604 01:18:22,720 --> 01:18:25,040 Speaker 2: I think these are fun quarterback battles right now, and 1605 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:27,760 Speaker 2: it doesn't seem like anyone's taking the upper hand in 1606 01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 2: these battles. And that's the thing, because there's actually meaning. 1607 01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:32,120 Speaker 3: You try to find a sliver of meaning out a 1608 01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 3: preseason wherever you can, and ninety nine times out of 1609 01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:37,920 Speaker 3: one hundred you can't. But sometimes every now and then 1610 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,880 Speaker 3: you have these really serious camp battles with and look, 1611 01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:42,840 Speaker 3: we talk about the Raiders not going anywhere like that 1612 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 3: defense I think can be excellent this year. I don't 1613 01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:47,800 Speaker 3: think they can be a top five defense. If they 1614 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,080 Speaker 3: can just get anything out of their offense, just be 1615 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:52,720 Speaker 3: middle of the pack, why can't they compete for a 1616 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:55,760 Speaker 3: wildcard spot. So the quarterback competition there is important. I look, 1617 01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:57,160 Speaker 3: I think Minnesota as well. I think they have a 1618 01:18:57,160 --> 01:18:58,759 Speaker 3: good coaching staff. I think they have a good roster. 1619 01:18:59,320 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 3: They have to figure out the quarterback situation. So I 1620 01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 3: do think these are two really intriguing teams that can 1621 01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 3: have really good seasons. But it's gonna hange greatly on 1622 01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:10,880 Speaker 3: who the quarterback is and how well that quarterback plays. 1623 01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 2: So I think there's a lot of importance. 1624 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 3: In this, in this preseason game and in this preseason 1625 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 3: in general, for both of these franchises. 1626 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:20,719 Speaker 2: I think there's also a deeper conversation to be had 1627 01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:25,439 Speaker 2: about the relevance of the preseason because it we'll get 1628 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:28,519 Speaker 2: you a little bit later, but I just there's moments 1629 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 2: where I'm watching and I'm in and he's like, okay, 1630 01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:34,080 Speaker 2: all right, this is good. I'm watching CJ. Stroud run 1631 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:37,240 Speaker 2: the Texans offense. There's Tank Dell with a wild offseason, 1632 01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 2: right that, right, it's intriguing. And then there's moments where 1633 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:43,160 Speaker 2: I watch, like what Carolina did in that game, You're like, 1634 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:45,200 Speaker 2: just like, why am I here? Why am I watching that? 1635 01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:49,000 Speaker 2: I'd rather be watching handball. Yes, I would rather be 1636 01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:52,000 Speaker 2: sitting here watching Sweden and Denmark and the bronze match, 1637 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:55,200 Speaker 2: trying to figure out the rules of this sport. I 1638 01:19:55,680 --> 01:19:59,080 Speaker 2: just I guess to each their own. Yeah, but the 1639 01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:02,200 Speaker 2: NFL's they got a decision to make, you know, are 1640 01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:04,880 Speaker 2: we going all in on this and sticking with three 1641 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,559 Speaker 2: or we're gonna go down to two preseason games? Because 1642 01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:09,439 Speaker 2: to me, kay fake, I only only got a mint 1643 01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 2: in the hour. But to me, it just seems like 1644 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:15,160 Speaker 2: there is there's no universal approach anymore. 1645 01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:18,080 Speaker 3: To the preseason No, and it has become trendy over 1646 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:20,280 Speaker 3: the last you know, few years where people just don't 1647 01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:22,240 Speaker 3: play a lot of franchises don't play their starters. You 1648 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,439 Speaker 3: have a couple of anomalies like the Chiefs you know 1649 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:26,920 Speaker 3: here and there but generally speaking, you know, they get 1650 01:20:26,960 --> 01:20:29,240 Speaker 3: all their work done with these these teams scrimmages, So 1651 01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:31,440 Speaker 3: why not do away with the majority of the preseason, 1652 01:20:31,960 --> 01:20:35,960 Speaker 3: have these sponsored teams scrimmages to televise those and sell 1653 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:37,439 Speaker 3: concessions and do it do it that way. 1654 01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:40,200 Speaker 2: I will say, though, maybe the biggest story in the 1655 01:20:40,240 --> 01:20:43,080 Speaker 2: preseason today that I haven't talked about, and we'll get 1656 01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:45,040 Speaker 2: to a little bit later on. We're gonna see Joe 1657 01:20:45,080 --> 01:20:48,320 Speaker 2: Burrow back's right eminem hair and all, and they play 1658 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:51,599 Speaker 2: the Buccaneers nights right at seven eastern, six o'clock Central, 1659 01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:54,160 Speaker 2: as Joe Burrow makes his return from an injury that 1660 01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:57,520 Speaker 2: cost him the latter half of the season.

People who look 1723 01:24:14,760 --> 01:24:17,599 Speaker 3: And I got into this debate last week with Fits 1724 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:20,040 Speaker 3: and Anthony because oh my god, football is back, and 1725 01:24:20,120 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 3: so as the Hall of Fame game was this, and 1726 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:23,840 Speaker 3: then it was like, it's really hard for me to 1727 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:25,360 Speaker 3: get fired up about preseason football. 1728 01:24:25,560 --> 01:24:26,559 Speaker 2: It really really is. 1729 01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:29,679 Speaker 3: These at least are games of meaning. You mentioned Florida 1730 01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:32,240 Speaker 3: State and Georgia Tech. As a conference game, it's going 1731 01:24:32,280 --> 01:24:34,800 Speaker 3: to actually have some bearing on how the season may 1732 01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:35,559 Speaker 3: or may not go. 1733 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 2: They count in the standings. 1734 01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:39,840 Speaker 3: I'm all for meaningful football, even if it might not 1735 01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:42,320 Speaker 3: be the most marque the biggest marque matchups. 1736 01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:44,519 Speaker 2: You know, by the way, I'm a moron because I 1737 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 2: was doing all my notes last night for the show today. 1738 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:48,720 Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, we got to get into the 1739 01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 2: get into this. Oh yeah, because I'm a big countdown guy. 1740 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:53,720 Speaker 2: So I'm like, fifteen days away to the start of 1741 01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:55,559 Speaker 2: the college and then you realize, oh, wait a minute, 1742 01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:59,880 Speaker 2: the calendar. We're fourteen days away. Can chop a day 1743 01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:03,559 Speaker 2: themselves a day. Let's go gave ourselves sorry about that 1744 01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:07,800 Speaker 2: big time miss on my part. Here's two things on this, Okay, 1745 01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:12,800 Speaker 2: beyond the matchups, does Week zero need to have a 1746 01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:15,840 Speaker 2: bigger slight? Do you need to put better games or 1747 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:20,040 Speaker 2: at least have a concerted effort. Now credit the Big ten, right, 1748 01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:22,559 Speaker 2: they've put a couple of conference games early and that's 1749 01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 2: been fun. But I'm one of those big are we 1750 01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:30,000 Speaker 2: doing it or are we not? Because if we're doing it, 1751 01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 2: I would love to see some massive matchups in that 1752 01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:37,639 Speaker 2: first weekend. Right, Maybe you take and add another kickoff game, 1753 01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:39,920 Speaker 2: Maybe you take an add a kickoff classic. I guess 1754 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:42,280 Speaker 2: I should say, maybe you add a conference game that early. 1755 01:25:42,320 --> 01:25:44,679 Speaker 2: You know, the Big twelve is constantly trying to find 1756 01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:48,679 Speaker 2: windows to showcase its league. Now, you mean your mark's 1757 01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:51,080 Speaker 2: been very open about it. Why not just say, all right, 1758 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:54,400 Speaker 2: let's dominate week zero. Let's put some massive games there. 1759 01:25:54,439 --> 01:25:57,519 Speaker 2: Coaches would love it because they get to start practice earlier. 1760 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:00,040 Speaker 2: And by the way, we see what you're doing. And 1761 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:02,759 Speaker 2: everyone's like, well, no, no, no, no, no, it's not week zero. 1762 01:26:02,800 --> 01:26:06,280 Speaker 2: It's technically week one. All right, So Florida State and 1763 01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 2: Georgia Decker playing two Week one games, Okay, sure it's 1764 01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:09,920 Speaker 2: week zero? 1765 01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:10,360 Speaker 6: Right? 1766 01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:13,240 Speaker 2: Does it need to be more emphasized? I talk about this. 1767 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:15,559 Speaker 2: I feel like every single year does it need to 1768 01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:17,840 Speaker 2: be blown up more? It's a big deal in high 1769 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:21,720 Speaker 2: school football? Does college football? Does the SEC? Does the 1770 01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:24,080 Speaker 2: Big Ten? Do they have to look at trying to 1771 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:28,040 Speaker 2: make week zero more attractive for its TV partners and 1772 01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:29,599 Speaker 2: more attractive for fans? Yes? 1773 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:31,280 Speaker 3: And you know one thing they can do, and I 1774 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,439 Speaker 3: guess if you had a bigger slate, technically it would 1775 01:26:33,479 --> 01:26:35,479 Speaker 3: turn into Week one and not Week zero. But what 1776 01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:39,000 Speaker 3: I would like to see in this situation is kind 1777 01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:42,320 Speaker 3: of like a lot of cross divisional or cross conference matchups, 1778 01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,720 Speaker 3: because now that we have a twelve team playoff in 1779 01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,640 Speaker 3: early season, loss to to a non conference opponent is 1780 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 3: not going to be as detrimental to your success moving 1781 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,759 Speaker 3: forward as it was back in the day. So teams 1782 01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:55,360 Speaker 3: that were I don't want, if you use the word 1783 01:26:55,479 --> 01:26:59,680 Speaker 3: scared reluctant to play out of conference games for fear that, 1784 01:26:59,720 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 3: you know, a bad quote unquote bad loss to say 1785 01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:04,880 Speaker 3: Boise State back in the day will completely knock me 1786 01:27:04,920 --> 01:27:07,280 Speaker 3: out of the playoff picture. That might not necessarily be 1787 01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:09,680 Speaker 3: the case now nowadays. And so what it would do, 1788 01:27:09,760 --> 01:27:12,920 Speaker 3: it would give us better matchups, you know. So that's 1789 01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:14,719 Speaker 3: the one thing that I'm looking for in college football. 1790 01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:17,600 Speaker 3: I'm tired of all the cupcake matchups. The SEC does it, 1791 01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:19,439 Speaker 3: and every school to a certain degree. I don't want 1792 01:27:19,439 --> 01:27:21,080 Speaker 3: to just single out the SEC. The SEC does it 1793 01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:22,720 Speaker 3: late in the year, sure, which has been my big 1794 01:27:22,760 --> 01:27:25,280 Speaker 3: issue with them. Everybody has cupcakes at the beginning of 1795 01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 3: the schedule. What I would like to see is more competitive, 1796 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:31,320 Speaker 3: a concerted effort for more competitive, more intriguing games at 1797 01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:33,439 Speaker 3: the front end of the schedule, and maybe a lot 1798 01:27:33,479 --> 01:27:35,400 Speaker 3: of them can be neutral side games and where the 1799 01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 3: schools can make some money off of it, and they 1800 01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 3: can get some travel going on, So there's something in 1801 01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:42,440 Speaker 3: it for everybody. But you know, having you know, Hawaii 1802 01:27:42,520 --> 01:27:45,519 Speaker 3: take on Delaware State as excited as I am for a. 1803 01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:48,160 Speaker 2: Quote unquote meaningful game and not really doing a whole 1804 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 2: lot for me. Yeah, I loved what you said about 1805 01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:55,320 Speaker 2: the cross divisional games, you know, and the big ten. 1806 01:27:56,080 --> 01:27:58,559 Speaker 2: I think what you guys are at nine Now, we 1807 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:03,120 Speaker 2: the Royal, we the sac We'll get to nine. I 1808 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:05,639 Speaker 2: think they're going to get to nine eventually. And if 1809 01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:08,800 Speaker 2: i'm I guess this boils down to, all right, what 1810 01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:09,920 Speaker 2: do you want to try to do? What do you 1811 01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:14,360 Speaker 2: want to try to own? And college football infamously one 1812 01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 2: year hired a bunch of celebrities and I guess this 1813 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:19,960 Speaker 2: was through the Playoff Committee and the TV partners, and 1814 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:23,040 Speaker 2: I thought, hey, got do it on New Year's Eve, right, 1815 01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:25,400 Speaker 2: And they had a big push with Jimmy Kimmel and 1816 01:28:25,439 --> 01:28:28,719 Speaker 2: all the commercials and it kind of flopped. Now, in fairness, 1817 01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:32,640 Speaker 2: you fast forward three four years later. May. Five years later, 1818 01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:34,360 Speaker 2: you had one of the greatest semi final games we've 1819 01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:36,600 Speaker 2: ever had with Ohio State and Georgia. That was on 1820 01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:39,519 Speaker 2: New Year's Eve. But the initial effort flopped, right, It 1821 01:28:39,560 --> 01:28:41,880 Speaker 2: was just it didn't work. Like they they were playing 1822 01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 2: playoff games in the middle of the afternoon. Right to me, 1823 01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:47,920 Speaker 2: that was a TV partner saying, hey, yeah, let's do 1824 01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:51,679 Speaker 2: this here, and unfortunately it just didn't work. Fast forward, 1825 01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 2: What now is that new thing you're going to try 1826 01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:55,880 Speaker 2: to do. Is it going to be making Week zero 1827 01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:58,240 Speaker 2: bigger deal? Is it going to be trying to intensify 1828 01:28:58,280 --> 01:29:02,280 Speaker 2: those late season matchups? Because and I'm going around here, 1829 01:29:02,320 --> 01:29:04,000 Speaker 2: so I'll try to chill myself out a little bit, 1830 01:29:04,080 --> 01:29:08,160 Speaker 2: kfing rain me back in if necessary. Okay, these TV 1831 01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 2: networks ESPN, ABC, Fox, CBS, NBC, they're all invested in 1832 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 2: college football. Do you know what they want more than 1833 01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:21,960 Speaker 2: anything else, simple term bangers. They want the biggest, best 1834 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:26,880 Speaker 2: matchups and what an opportunity, say at the start of 1835 01:29:26,920 --> 01:29:32,760 Speaker 2: the season, cross divisional game week zero. I'm speaking from 1836 01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:37,599 Speaker 2: what I know Georgia, Oklahoma, Saturday night primetime in Athens 1837 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:41,559 Speaker 2: or in Norman. It's an SEC rival there or an 1838 01:29:41,600 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 2: SEC matchup that's never been played. You know these cross 1839 01:29:44,479 --> 01:29:47,200 Speaker 2: division I'll just I say cross divisional doesn't exist. But 1840 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 2: you brought up heys, Well, see Ohio State. You know, 1841 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:55,360 Speaker 2: those would be matchups that might not be in the 1842 01:29:55,400 --> 01:29:58,240 Speaker 2: three to four regularly scheduled teams they're going to get. 1843 01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:02,040 Speaker 2: So I'm I would love an idea like that. Man, 1844 01:30:02,360 --> 01:30:04,959 Speaker 2: I would have loved something like that. Again, knowing divisions 1845 01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:07,360 Speaker 2: aren't a thing anymore, but what would have been those matchups? 1846 01:30:07,400 --> 01:30:11,639 Speaker 2: Because if I understand the scheduling philosophy that the SEC 1847 01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:13,760 Speaker 2: might go with, you're gonna have three teams that you 1848 01:30:13,760 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 2: play every single year and then the rest of the 1849 01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:18,400 Speaker 2: teams are going to rotate. I think it's what every 1850 01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:21,920 Speaker 2: two years, every four years. So to me, I'm just 1851 01:30:22,560 --> 01:30:25,479 Speaker 2: I think there's a pretty good schedule model out there. 1852 01:30:27,120 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 2: How about I just wonder how they're gonna shift it up, 1853 01:30:28,960 --> 01:30:30,240 Speaker 2: how they're going to try to make it even a 1854 01:30:30,240 --> 01:30:31,360 Speaker 2: bigger deal for the networks. 1855 01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:33,479 Speaker 3: Well, you know, now we have these boll tie ins 1856 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:36,599 Speaker 3: like the third place pack twelve team which doesn't exist anymore, 1857 01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:39,720 Speaker 3: faces the third place Mountain what whatever, Why couldn't you 1858 01:30:39,800 --> 01:30:42,160 Speaker 3: do some sort of system like that with college football 1859 01:30:42,240 --> 01:30:45,400 Speaker 3: to stay to kick off the season the SEC and. 1860 01:30:45,360 --> 01:30:46,800 Speaker 2: The base revenue. 1861 01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:50,680 Speaker 3: Okay, I'll give you colleague Rick new gaisl credit for 1862 01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:52,000 Speaker 3: this theory, Yes, because. 1863 01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:53,680 Speaker 2: Okay, you got to explain this to me like I'm 1864 01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:54,719 Speaker 2: a five year old. Okay. 1865 01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:58,519 Speaker 3: So he basically says, you take the college basketball model 1866 01:30:58,640 --> 01:31:01,160 Speaker 3: that the early season college basketball, they'd have the member, 1867 01:31:01,200 --> 01:31:04,760 Speaker 3: they'd have like the Big ten SEC Challenge, right, and 1868 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 3: you'd have all these deres. So say the previous year, 1869 01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 3: whoever finished sixth in the SEC would play whoever finished 1870 01:31:11,439 --> 01:31:14,200 Speaker 3: sixth in the ACC, and they would square off in 1871 01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:18,240 Speaker 3: the regular season early on that next season. Why couldn't 1872 01:31:18,280 --> 01:31:20,000 Speaker 3: you have it set up that way to say, the 1873 01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,679 Speaker 3: Big Ten and the Big twelve and then the SEC 1874 01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:26,240 Speaker 3: and the ACC signed some sort of eight year packed 1875 01:31:26,320 --> 01:31:29,400 Speaker 3: or something, and the week one of every single year 1876 01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:32,160 Speaker 3: based on wherever you finished in the standings in your 1877 01:31:32,200 --> 01:31:34,559 Speaker 3: particular conference. And this is also assuming that the conferences 1878 01:31:34,560 --> 01:31:36,360 Speaker 3: are aligned with the same amount of teams, et cetera. 1879 01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:37,720 Speaker 2: Why can't you. 1880 01:31:37,720 --> 01:31:41,400 Speaker 3: Just have eight plays eight, three plays three, one plays 1881 01:31:41,439 --> 01:31:44,439 Speaker 3: one and just do it on a year a rotational basis, 1882 01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:45,639 Speaker 3: year in and year out. 1883 01:31:45,920 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 2: Now start you're gonna get some bowl games, right, isn't 1884 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:49,800 Speaker 2: that kind of the point of it all? Yeah? 1885 01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:52,360 Speaker 3: Basically, Yeah, Basically, the year starts with a bowl game. 1886 01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:54,519 Speaker 3: That's that's what the theory is. And it's in most 1887 01:31:54,520 --> 01:31:57,280 Speaker 3: simplistic terms, Chris, Yeah, you're starting the season with a 1888 01:31:57,280 --> 01:31:57,720 Speaker 3: bowl game. 1889 01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:01,840 Speaker 2: Do you know what's funny? I know coach new Heischel 1890 01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:03,960 Speaker 2: probably isn't listening, but I love the man, I hope, 1891 01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:06,799 Speaker 2: so I love it. I've listened to him a lot, 1892 01:32:07,120 --> 01:32:09,920 Speaker 2: and I've heard him bring that theory up, and I've 1893 01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:12,920 Speaker 2: and I've tried to have it like sync in and 1894 01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 2: I'm like, what too many moving parts too. But just 1895 01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:19,120 Speaker 2: sitting here this morning, maybe I got the mix right. 1896 01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,639 Speaker 2: Maybe it's because I just had my protein bar. Maybe 1897 01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:24,080 Speaker 2: it's because I've got a couple of SIPs of my 1898 01:32:24,160 --> 01:32:28,000 Speaker 2: second cup of coffee. It really registered and I it hit. 1899 01:32:28,080 --> 01:32:30,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if you can get 1900 01:32:30,760 --> 01:32:33,120 Speaker 2: to that point, but could you imagine, Like, let's just 1901 01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:35,400 Speaker 2: I've got the college football standings from last year sitting 1902 01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:36,760 Speaker 2: right here in front of me, all right, could you 1903 01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:39,519 Speaker 2: imagine and you could choose, you could split them up 1904 01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:42,280 Speaker 2: right some week zero, some week one. Sure though everything 1905 01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:45,320 Speaker 2: is week zero right now. So let's say you go 1906 01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:48,639 Speaker 2: back to twenty twenty three and the team that won 1907 01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:51,360 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve championship because we're going to go I 1908 01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 2: guess that doesn't work. 1909 01:32:52,120 --> 01:32:54,680 Speaker 3: Whoever won the championship game versus whoever finished forces in 1910 01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:55,960 Speaker 3: the standings it was different. 1911 01:32:56,080 --> 01:32:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's take Oklahoma State then, Okay, so you would 1912 01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:02,160 Speaker 2: have an opening week in matchup now to Oklahoma State 1913 01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:06,280 Speaker 2: playing Ohio State. I mean that's awesome, look at that, right, agree? 1914 01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:09,080 Speaker 2: Would that be? See Texas? Texas is already playing Michigan, 1915 01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:12,280 Speaker 2: so that's pretty damn cool. But I mean you would 1916 01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:16,160 Speaker 2: have that, and you're just we're just theorizing it between 1917 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:21,479 Speaker 2: I guess you would say the lesser not respected, but 1918 01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:24,599 Speaker 2: the less powerful conferences. Right, So the power the Big 1919 01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:26,680 Speaker 2: ten of the SEC would play the members of the 1920 01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:28,880 Speaker 2: ACC or the Big twelve. So that would be and 1921 01:33:28,920 --> 01:33:31,680 Speaker 2: you could cross it up however you want. Sure, I'm 1922 01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:34,840 Speaker 2: here for it, right, And then you get a gauge 1923 01:33:34,840 --> 01:33:36,360 Speaker 2: early in the season as to where they are and 1924 01:33:36,520 --> 01:33:38,479 Speaker 2: if you do lose, it doesn't hurt you. 1925 01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:41,640 Speaker 3: And if you know, Heaven and Earth were shaken to 1926 01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,800 Speaker 3: its core and Heaven forbid, Alabama found some way to. 1927 01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:46,360 Speaker 2: Lose to Purdue whatever. 1928 01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:48,680 Speaker 3: Oh, all right, if they win thirteen straight games to 1929 01:33:48,760 --> 01:33:50,000 Speaker 3: end the season, are they not going to go to 1930 01:33:50,040 --> 01:33:50,479 Speaker 3: the playoff. 1931 01:33:51,120 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely, you know what I mean. 1932 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:55,679 Speaker 3: So it doesn't So these losses, these non conference losses 1933 01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:58,080 Speaker 3: to teams that you quote unquote shouldn't lose to, are 1934 01:33:58,120 --> 01:33:59,439 Speaker 3: not going to hurt you the way they used to 1935 01:33:59,479 --> 01:34:03,599 Speaker 3: hurt you in the previous system, So why not play them? 1936 01:34:04,320 --> 01:34:09,080 Speaker 2: Minority? Inside TV talk? Now moving on because we did 1937 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 2: get the Top twenty five this week, So conference realignment, 1938 01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:18,040 Speaker 2: playoff participation debates and how they're going to go about it. 1939 01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:21,639 Speaker 2: Be damned. We have games coming up in fourteen days 1940 01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:24,040 Speaker 2: and we've got a top twenty five to digest with 1941 01:34:24,120 --> 01:34:26,320 Speaker 2: Kevin Figures. I'm Chris Plank sitting in for the fellas. 1942 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:30,439 Speaker 2: It's Fox Sports Radio. And when and when the new 1943 01:34:30,479 --> 01:34:35,000 Speaker 2: AP Top twenty five poll comes out tomorrow? Oh, Today's Saturday, 1944 01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:37,320 Speaker 2: So it used to being on Sunday. Comes out on Monday. 1945 01:34:38,080 --> 01:34:41,040 Speaker 2: I mean, k We're gonna have both polls out and 1946 01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:44,599 Speaker 2: I and I'm fascinated to see how it differentiates from 1947 01:34:44,680 --> 01:34:48,000 Speaker 2: what we got in the preseason college pole from the coaches. 1948 01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:52,280 Speaker 2: I'm fascinated to see how it differs because will the 1949 01:34:52,400 --> 01:34:54,640 Speaker 2: press have the same respect that the coaches did for 1950 01:34:54,720 --> 01:34:58,320 Speaker 2: keeping Alabama in the top five. Is Michigan. I mean 1951 01:34:58,360 --> 01:35:01,320 Speaker 2: Michigan bing eight was one right to me in the 1952 01:35:01,360 --> 01:35:04,760 Speaker 2: preseason poll. Well, Virginia Tech still be unranked, Well, they'll 1953 01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:06,720 Speaker 2: be that same amount of love. I think there is 1954 01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:09,719 Speaker 2: what five big twelve teams that are that are ranked. 1955 01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:13,439 Speaker 2: I think it's it's here, and it's gonna be interesting 1956 01:35:13,479 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 2: to see what the ap pole looks like. But I 1957 01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:18,439 Speaker 2: can't help but wonder how much it's gonna truly divert 1958 01:35:18,479 --> 01:35:20,599 Speaker 2: from the coach's pool. You think we're gonna see something similar. 1959 01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:23,839 Speaker 2: I feel like usually it's fairly similar. 1960 01:35:23,920 --> 01:35:25,200 Speaker 3: You might get a little bit of a shake up 1961 01:35:25,240 --> 01:35:28,200 Speaker 3: towards the bottom of the standings, But yeah, I think 1962 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:30,160 Speaker 3: it's it's usually it kind of follows suit. Which is 1963 01:35:30,200 --> 01:35:32,439 Speaker 3: interesting because the coaches poll, we know how this works. 1964 01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:34,519 Speaker 3: Most of the time. It's not even the coaches, although 1965 01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:36,599 Speaker 3: ones who are voting for these, so it's not a 1966 01:35:36,600 --> 01:35:38,880 Speaker 3: true gauge of what the coaches actually think. It's somebody 1967 01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:41,200 Speaker 3: in the athletic department. I kind of feel like, at 1968 01:35:41,280 --> 01:35:44,320 Speaker 3: least early in the season, I trust the AP pole 1969 01:35:44,400 --> 01:35:46,280 Speaker 3: a little bit more and their gauge and their thought 1970 01:35:46,360 --> 01:35:47,800 Speaker 3: process more than the Coach's Poll. 1971 01:35:48,600 --> 01:35:53,000 Speaker 2: You know, what's what's fascinating is how it is all 1972 01:35:53,320 --> 01:35:56,200 Speaker 2: reputation and it isn't truly I think the coaches that 1973 01:35:56,280 --> 01:35:59,680 Speaker 2: sit down and really hash it out, but it is. 1974 01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:02,400 Speaker 2: It is fascinating me and Bama fans don't take this 1975 01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:05,559 Speaker 2: as a knock mad at me on Twitter yesterday, but 1976 01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 2: the greatest coach that's ever coached in college football maybe 1977 01:36:09,479 --> 01:36:13,479 Speaker 2: in my mind, Nick Saban is the greatest. He left, yep. 1978 01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:16,760 Speaker 2: And they didn't bring up like his defensive You know, 1979 01:36:16,800 --> 01:36:19,040 Speaker 2: in a lot of these situations when when a great 1980 01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:22,800 Speaker 2: moves on or retires, there's an assistant there that's elevated 1981 01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:25,120 Speaker 2: to take over the role, and sometimes it works and 1982 01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:27,720 Speaker 2: a lot of times it doesn't. But there wasn't that 1983 01:36:27,800 --> 01:36:31,679 Speaker 2: at Alabama. K fig. No, they went outside the family. 1984 01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:35,280 Speaker 2: They brought in Kaylin to board, whom I don't even 1985 01:36:35,360 --> 01:36:38,120 Speaker 2: know if he's coached in the South. He's been a 1986 01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:40,639 Speaker 2: West Coast dude, ye for a lot of his career. 1987 01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:46,680 Speaker 2: Pacific Northwest. Yeah. Yeah, And yet they and I think 1988 01:36:46,720 --> 01:36:50,599 Speaker 2: it's been overblown. Alabama did not have a mass exodus 1989 01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:53,439 Speaker 2: in the transfer portal. They lost some dudes, but again 1990 01:36:53,439 --> 01:36:55,479 Speaker 2: they've gotten one of them back in Kadan Proctor, who's 1991 01:36:55,479 --> 01:36:57,920 Speaker 2: their starting left tackle and a potential first round pick. 1992 01:36:58,400 --> 01:37:01,599 Speaker 2: And they've got some dudes, I mean Nick Saban's recruitsed 1993 01:37:01,600 --> 01:37:04,240 Speaker 2: it and all decommit and go somewhere else. Yeah, he 1994 01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:04,719 Speaker 2: stuck around. 1995 01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:06,840 Speaker 3: You still have Jalen Milroe, who turned the foreigner RESI 1996 01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:08,840 Speaker 3: passer last year and who by the way, is working 1997 01:37:08,840 --> 01:37:10,920 Speaker 3: with one of the great quarterback gurus right now. And 1998 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:14,639 Speaker 3: Kaylin Debor, whose quarterback just started a game last night 1999 01:37:14,640 --> 01:37:15,280 Speaker 3: in the NFL. 2000 01:37:15,800 --> 01:37:19,840 Speaker 2: I saw an incredible stat speaking of Jalen Milroe as 2001 01:37:19,840 --> 01:37:23,559 Speaker 2: far as teams, this being one of the few times 2002 01:37:23,640 --> 01:37:26,840 Speaker 2: where the top ten and the Heisman valloting top ten 2003 01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:30,160 Speaker 2: in the Heisman voting that only two of them return 2004 01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:35,000 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, and one of them is Jaylen Milroe, who, 2005 01:37:35,040 --> 01:37:37,000 Speaker 2: by the way, I had on my ballot last year. 2006 01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:40,880 Speaker 2: So all of that to say, it's pretty amazing. I 2007 01:37:40,880 --> 01:37:43,800 Speaker 2: think it says a lot about where that program is 2008 01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:47,840 Speaker 2: that they would still be number five in the coaches Well, 2009 01:37:47,880 --> 01:37:52,280 Speaker 2: it's incredible, Yeah, it really is. I wasn't surprised by 2010 01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:55,200 Speaker 2: Georgia one, Ohio's date two. Oregon and Texas are going 2011 01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:58,240 Speaker 2: to be interesting studies this year. At three and four. 2012 01:37:58,320 --> 01:38:01,080 Speaker 2: Oregon brought in Dylan Gabriel will be their starting quarterback 2013 01:38:01,120 --> 01:38:01,880 Speaker 2: by mid season. 2014 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:06,679 Speaker 3: Texas lost a lot well, they lost their starting tailback 2015 01:38:06,720 --> 01:38:07,800 Speaker 3: to an injury this week too. 2016 01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:11,280 Speaker 2: CJ, Bax are just huge rushing news. And so those 2017 01:38:11,320 --> 01:38:13,679 Speaker 2: are the four top four and then there's Bam. It's 2018 01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:16,760 Speaker 2: just wild to me, all right, most overrated in your 2019 01:38:16,800 --> 01:38:18,880 Speaker 2: opinion when we come back, so think about it. Most 2020 01:38:18,920 --> 01:38:22,080 Speaker 2: over ranked team, I should say whenever the Coach's poll 2021 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:24,600 Speaker 2: came out this past week, and then I got some 2022 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:27,599 Speaker 2: thoughts on what it's going to look like on Monday 2023 01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:30,240 Speaker 2: when the eight People comes out. But when we come 2024 01:38:30,280 --> 01:38:33,120 Speaker 2: back to the tyrack dot com studios, we also have 2025 01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:35,760 Speaker 2: to carve out some time for what's going on in Colorado. 2026 01:38:36,439 --> 01:38:40,120 Speaker 2: I coach Prime, I'm a fan. I want to see 2027 01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:43,880 Speaker 2: him have success, but he is writing a handbook how 2028 01:38:43,920 --> 01:38:46,640 Speaker 2: to do things the wrong way. At least it appears 2029 01:38:46,920 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 2: we'll get into that next on Fox Sports Radio. I 2030 01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:56,400 Speaker 2: was laughing during the break because the Irish Raiders on 2031 01:38:56,479 --> 01:38:59,519 Speaker 2: Twitter hit it on the head.

Here's the thing about kids. 2044 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:45,120 Speaker 2: They don't go anywhere. They're always around. It's like the 2045 01:39:45,280 --> 01:39:47,719 Speaker 2: one stuff from you all the time. It's terrible, doesn't 2046 01:39:47,720 --> 01:39:52,400 Speaker 2: have somewhere to be. It's summer.

Man? 2049 01:39:58,080 --> 01:40:00,599 Speaker 3: It's like the old Staples commercial back in the day 2050 01:40:00,640 --> 01:40:03,120 Speaker 3: where they say it's the most wonderful time of the 2051 01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:05,960 Speaker 3: year and the adult is like, you know, dancing in 2052 01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:08,720 Speaker 3: the line, you know, getting notebooks and pins, and the 2053 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:10,479 Speaker 3: kids was just standing there with a giant frown on 2054 01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:10,880 Speaker 3: their face. 2055 01:40:10,960 --> 01:40:12,840 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you something, all right. I just I 2056 01:40:12,840 --> 01:40:15,000 Speaker 2: think I'll be honest with the criff, because if you're 2057 01:40:15,080 --> 01:40:17,639 Speaker 2: up this early, by god, you love sports and you're 2058 01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:22,960 Speaker 2: probably living a life similar to mine. But we spent 2059 01:40:23,320 --> 01:40:26,759 Speaker 2: so much money kfig on back to school last weekend. 2060 01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:28,479 Speaker 2: We have this thing. I don't know if this is 2061 01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:30,519 Speaker 2: across the board, but they had it was called a 2062 01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:34,400 Speaker 2: tax free weekend, so for one weekend on school supplies 2063 01:40:34,400 --> 01:40:38,520 Speaker 2: across the great state of Oklahoma, and clothing. Kids needs clothes, 2064 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:43,839 Speaker 2: Kids need clothes, no tax, That's excellent. It was amazing. 2065 01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:48,000 Speaker 2: The mall was like nineteen ninety six. It was amazing. 2066 01:40:48,240 --> 01:40:53,439 Speaker 2: And we spent way too much money on things that 2067 01:40:54,439 --> 01:40:57,320 Speaker 2: don't even affect me. And I've never been happier in 2068 01:40:57,360 --> 01:41:01,200 Speaker 2: my life. Why it's back to school, baby, Get these 2069 01:41:01,520 --> 01:41:04,720 Speaker 2: Get these kids out of here now, it doesn't matter here, 2070 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:05,400 Speaker 2: take the card. 2071 01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:05,800 Speaker 8: Go. 2072 01:41:06,760 --> 01:41:08,960 Speaker 2: I see your Instagram posts where it's like you only 2073 01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:13,040 Speaker 2: get eighteen years do your kids good? Yeah? Fine, I'm 2074 01:41:13,040 --> 01:41:15,320 Speaker 2: gonna come over to their house and demand they entertain 2075 01:41:15,360 --> 01:41:18,479 Speaker 2: me during the summer. Right, So, did anything really jump 2076 01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:22,200 Speaker 2: out at you that you thought was over or undervalued, 2077 01:41:22,320 --> 01:41:25,280 Speaker 2: over ranked or underranked in the coaches top twenty five. 2078 01:41:25,400 --> 01:41:29,160 Speaker 3: Nothing Crazily, I thought Florida State at ten might be 2079 01:41:29,200 --> 01:41:31,360 Speaker 3: a little bit higher than I would have expected that 2080 01:41:31,439 --> 01:41:34,160 Speaker 3: big on Dju, yeah, neither am I you know having 2081 01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:36,200 Speaker 3: you know, we saw him at Clemson early on. 2082 01:41:36,320 --> 01:41:38,599 Speaker 2: I saw him up close. In personal Oregon State. 2083 01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:43,840 Speaker 3: It was better, but certainly really really inconsistent, and they 2084 01:41:43,960 --> 01:41:46,679 Speaker 3: lost a lot of especially a skill position, but players 2085 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:48,920 Speaker 3: on the offensive end, they got a lot of transfer 2086 01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:51,080 Speaker 3: guys in on defense. I know there's just a lot 2087 01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,040 Speaker 3: of question marks for me for Florida State. For me 2088 01:41:53,080 --> 01:41:54,760 Speaker 3: to have them ranked in the top ten right now, 2089 01:41:54,800 --> 01:41:58,200 Speaker 3: I'd probably have them closer to in the twenty twenties 2090 01:41:58,439 --> 01:42:00,400 Speaker 3: ish area. To be honest with you, I don't know 2091 01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:02,800 Speaker 3: if I'm as bullish on all miss as everybody else is. 2092 01:42:03,040 --> 01:42:05,479 Speaker 3: That being said, I don't think they're terrible, but top 2093 01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:07,680 Speaker 3: six i'd probably have them more than you know, ten 2094 01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:12,439 Speaker 3: twelve ish. But generally speaking, I'm okay with the way 2095 01:42:12,439 --> 01:42:15,000 Speaker 3: that the coaches shook out for the most. 2096 01:42:14,840 --> 01:42:17,679 Speaker 2: Part, and I was I joked about this a lot 2097 01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:21,880 Speaker 2: this week. I was very impressed with how nobody lost 2098 01:42:21,920 --> 01:42:24,439 Speaker 2: their minds their Virginia Tech fans. I think we're a 2099 01:42:24,479 --> 01:42:27,360 Speaker 2: little bit disappointed. They built towards this year and it 2100 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:29,519 Speaker 2: seems like they've got a very solid roster and they 2101 01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:32,080 Speaker 2: feel like they can compete in the ACC. So Vo 2102 01:42:32,200 --> 01:42:36,040 Speaker 2: Tech fans probably deserve to be ranked. But nobody's like, oh, 2103 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:40,479 Speaker 2: it's dumbasting almost too calculated, to be honest with you, 2104 01:42:40,680 --> 01:42:42,960 Speaker 2: everyone seemed to be too calm about it, like we 2105 01:42:43,040 --> 01:42:45,160 Speaker 2: got to be losing our minds about this right now? 2106 01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:48,840 Speaker 2: What's roll in college sports fans? And I realize no 2107 01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 2: one really knows, right, no one really knows what to 2108 01:42:51,960 --> 01:42:55,559 Speaker 2: expect this season. You got new teams and new places. 2109 01:42:55,880 --> 01:43:00,479 Speaker 2: The transfers is all over the place. Crazy. So I'm 2110 01:43:00,520 --> 01:43:02,280 Speaker 2: gonna give you a stat real quick before we get 2111 01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:04,160 Speaker 2: to the deon stuff. Actually, you know what, it's already 2112 01:43:04,200 --> 01:43:05,519 Speaker 2: the bottom of the art. We'll get to the on 2113 01:43:05,520 --> 01:43:09,559 Speaker 2: stuff after your update. Okay, Bo Nicks in his first 2114 01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:14,640 Speaker 2: two seasons as a starting quarterback, well, let's go three 2115 01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:20,519 Speaker 2: fifty seven completion percentage fifty seven percent, completion percentage fifty nine, 2116 01:43:21,280 --> 01:43:23,680 Speaker 2: and then in his final year at Auburn sixty one. 2117 01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:26,920 Speaker 2: So he was better. But he also threw sixteen interceptions 2118 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:30,600 Speaker 2: in those three seasons. He gets to Oregon and in 2119 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:34,160 Speaker 2: two years is a seventy five percent passer seventy four 2120 01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:37,320 Speaker 2: point nine to be exact. He went from averaging six 2121 01:43:37,400 --> 01:43:39,680 Speaker 2: point nine yards per pass to nine point two. I 2122 01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:43,960 Speaker 2: get it, I get it. There's the offense that was 2123 01:43:44,040 --> 01:43:46,960 Speaker 2: run at Oregon as opposed to Auburn. But just for 2124 01:43:47,000 --> 01:43:51,040 Speaker 2: the sake of comparison, the dude's passer rating was fifty 2125 01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:55,600 Speaker 2: one points higher at Oregon than it ever was at Auburn. 2126 01:43:56,240 --> 01:43:58,479 Speaker 2: He was the worst quarterback I think I'd seen start 2127 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:01,680 Speaker 2: an SEC game whenever he started at Auburn. And then 2128 01:44:01,720 --> 01:44:04,759 Speaker 2: by the end of his career he's a first round pick. 2129 01:44:05,080 --> 01:44:10,920 Speaker 2: Michael Pennock junior battled injuries, terrible at Indiana terrible. He 2130 01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:14,200 Speaker 2: goes to Washington. What happens, dude, it's a first round pick. 2131 01:44:14,439 --> 01:44:17,160 Speaker 2: Jay I could go Jalen Daniels awful, and I don't 2132 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:19,679 Speaker 2: know what happened in Arizona State. Then all of a sudden, 2133 01:44:19,720 --> 01:44:22,479 Speaker 2: he gets to LSU and he's a different dude. And 2134 01:44:22,560 --> 01:44:25,320 Speaker 2: so I'm always hesitanting. Like my first thought when you 2135 01:44:25,320 --> 01:44:27,439 Speaker 2: brought up Florida State was I'm not really sold on 2136 01:44:27,720 --> 01:44:31,840 Speaker 2: dj Uyungla, right, did transfer quarterback, But then I look 2137 01:44:31,880 --> 01:44:35,120 Speaker 2: back on all those dudes that I thought were not 2138 01:44:35,240 --> 01:44:39,680 Speaker 2: going to be difference makers. That fast forward, they're in 2139 01:44:39,720 --> 01:44:41,599 Speaker 2: the NFL and they got a chance to start their 2140 01:44:41,640 --> 01:44:45,320 Speaker 2: rookie season. Pretty damn impressive. But there's one caveat here, 2141 01:44:45,320 --> 01:44:47,759 Speaker 2: and I think this is why cam Ward at Miami, 2142 01:44:48,280 --> 01:44:55,559 Speaker 2: dj Uengla down at Florida State, Oregon, Dylan Gabriel, Riley Leonard, 2143 01:44:56,200 --> 01:44:58,439 Speaker 2: you know where I'm getting here, right, first year at 2144 01:44:58,439 --> 01:45:01,320 Speaker 2: the school, starting quarterback, you know, a rental for a 2145 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:04,919 Speaker 2: season essentially. I don't think they've had as much success 2146 01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:10,080 Speaker 2: as Pennix, Nicks Daniels because those weren't one year rent 2147 01:45:10,200 --> 01:45:12,280 Speaker 2: Those weren't guys that came in for a season, right, 2148 01:45:12,360 --> 01:45:16,760 Speaker 2: Those dudes were two years or more correct at the school. 2149 01:45:17,120 --> 01:45:19,360 Speaker 2: And I don't I'm working on it. I'm trying to 2150 01:45:19,400 --> 01:45:21,519 Speaker 2: work shop it a little bit. There's not the best 2151 01:45:21,520 --> 01:45:25,360 Speaker 2: example of success is Jalen Hurts at Oklahoma right twenty nineteen, right, yep, 2152 01:45:26,200 --> 01:45:29,280 Speaker 2: but k fake, I'm curious to see how these one 2153 01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:32,720 Speaker 2: year quarterbacks coming in when college football is supposed to 2154 01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:35,040 Speaker 2: be about culture and supposed to be out about locker room. 2155 01:45:35,320 --> 01:45:37,559 Speaker 2: I'm fascinated to see how that plays out this season. 2156 01:45:37,680 --> 01:45:40,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, I am too, because it's really a giant unknown, 2157 01:45:40,560 --> 01:45:43,040 Speaker 3: and especially so with so many players of this magnitude, 2158 01:45:43,040 --> 01:45:46,000 Speaker 3: of this caliber going to major programs can make such 2159 01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:49,519 Speaker 3: a difference. I'm really intrigued to see which one of 2160 01:45:49,560 --> 01:45:52,000 Speaker 3: these transfer players ends up making the largest impact. 2161 01:45:52,280 --> 01:45:53,040 Speaker 2: Or look, maybe. 2162 01:45:52,840 --> 01:45:54,720 Speaker 3: Somebody ends up being a square peg in a round 2163 01:45:54,720 --> 01:45:56,680 Speaker 3: hole and it doesn't work out for them. You know, 2164 01:45:56,840 --> 01:45:59,080 Speaker 3: we've seen scenarios like that work out in the past too, 2165 01:45:59,160 --> 01:46:01,280 Speaker 3: so it is very intriguing. 2166 01:46:01,600 --> 01:46:04,640 Speaker 2: What it's interesting in all those situations that I just 2167 01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:08,400 Speaker 2: brought up, Oh my gosh, I didn't even mention Ohio State. 2168 01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:11,640 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, by the way, yes, But what's interesting in 2169 01:46:11,680 --> 01:46:15,519 Speaker 2: all of those situations there is a young gun right 2170 01:46:15,560 --> 01:46:19,040 Speaker 2: that if things go south, maybe all right, well, let's 2171 01:46:19,040 --> 01:46:22,840 Speaker 2: give the young guys shot. More's out at Oregon right now, 2172 01:46:22,880 --> 01:46:24,559 Speaker 2: and a lot of people are high on him after 2173 01:46:25,320 --> 01:46:28,639 Speaker 2: he transferred. A lot of people are high on Ohio 2174 01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:33,559 Speaker 2: State's quarterback room. Texas. Oh gosh, of course, let's we 2175 01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:36,320 Speaker 2: talk about Texas. We can't forget about Arch. But I 2176 01:46:37,080 --> 01:46:38,960 Speaker 2: will say if some of these guys that are one 2177 01:46:39,000 --> 01:46:41,960 Speaker 2: year rentals. If they struggle a bit, it might be coolest, 2178 01:46:42,320 --> 01:46:44,080 Speaker 2: or it might be interesting to see how quickly they 2179 01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:47,759 Speaker 2: pull the plug if necessary, and go with the younger quarterback, 2180 01:46:47,800 --> 01:46:49,639 Speaker 2: the guy that could be there for a while. All right, 2181 01:46:50,560 --> 01:46:53,040 Speaker 2: Deon's making a messive things? Or is he will debate 2182 01:46:53,080 --> 01:46:56,280 Speaker 2: coach Prime next Rolling on a Saturday morning in for 2183 01:46:56,439 --> 01:46:59,799 Speaker 2: the fellas, I'm Chris Plank.

What's the 2215 01:48:23,680 --> 01:48:25,439 Speaker 2: buzz i mean, we just went through a top twenty 2216 01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:30,720 Speaker 2: five that has USC towards what I've heard. Yeah, how 2217 01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:33,880 Speaker 2: you feeling? What's the buzz with your cause you're is 2218 01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:37,080 Speaker 2: it your girlfriend that's a Texas fan too? So I 2219 01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:38,360 Speaker 2: got USC and Texas? 2220 01:48:38,479 --> 01:48:41,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, so's she's a Texas fan. I'm I'm a USC alum. 2221 01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:43,080 Speaker 6: I went there for grad. 2222 01:48:42,840 --> 01:48:44,240 Speaker 2: School, of course. 2223 01:48:44,560 --> 01:48:49,559 Speaker 6: Yeah, I they. I think when you guys are going 2224 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:52,080 Speaker 6: over the quarterbacks there, I think Miller Moss is worth 2225 01:48:52,080 --> 01:48:52,479 Speaker 6: a mention. 2226 01:48:52,920 --> 01:48:54,960 Speaker 2: I agree, we see. Now keep in mind, keep in 2227 01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:58,000 Speaker 2: mind I was bringing up the one year transfers and 2228 01:48:58,040 --> 01:49:00,040 Speaker 2: see what kind of effect they can have, right. I 2229 01:49:00,120 --> 01:49:03,600 Speaker 2: think he's been successful. But when you're talking about intriguing 2230 01:49:03,640 --> 01:49:06,200 Speaker 2: young quarterbacks, Miller Moss fits that. After the bowl game, right. 2231 01:49:06,080 --> 01:49:08,040 Speaker 3: There's a holdover who's been there for a couple of 2232 01:49:08,120 --> 01:49:09,960 Speaker 3: years and he had a great bowl game. He doesn't 2233 01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:12,400 Speaker 3: have a large you know, sample size is the only issue, 2234 01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:13,720 Speaker 3: the only thing working against them. 2235 01:49:13,840 --> 01:49:16,439 Speaker 6: Yeah, But I mean with Lincoln Riley, the offense is 2236 01:49:16,479 --> 01:49:18,680 Speaker 6: going to be good regardless. But that's the reason that 2237 01:49:18,720 --> 01:49:21,040 Speaker 6: I bring up Miller Moss is, you know, an interesting 2238 01:49:21,120 --> 01:49:24,559 Speaker 6: quarterback because whoever's under center for Lincoln Riley is probably 2239 01:49:24,560 --> 01:49:26,639 Speaker 6: going to be pretty good, and they should. 2240 01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:29,240 Speaker 3: I will say they had some offensive line issues the 2241 01:49:29,320 --> 01:49:31,360 Speaker 3: last couple of years, and Caleb Williams covered up a 2242 01:49:31,400 --> 01:49:33,840 Speaker 3: lot of their problems. So I know they got some 2243 01:49:33,880 --> 01:49:37,120 Speaker 3: transfer guys in. They lost a couple of recruits too. 2244 01:49:37,479 --> 01:49:39,599 Speaker 3: They're better on the offensive line. I just to watch, 2245 01:49:39,600 --> 01:49:41,920 Speaker 3: just wonder if they're as good as they need to be, 2246 01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:43,639 Speaker 3: especially going into the Big ten. 2247 01:49:43,880 --> 01:49:46,519 Speaker 6: It's the offensive line in the defense. And I do 2248 01:49:46,680 --> 01:49:50,600 Speaker 6: know one thing about the offensive line that they're moving Monnheim, 2249 01:49:50,640 --> 01:49:54,160 Speaker 6: their right tackle last year, to center, and everything I've 2250 01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:56,240 Speaker 6: heard is that that's where he should have been playing 2251 01:49:56,280 --> 01:49:59,559 Speaker 6: this entire time. So I'm actually really excited about that. Plus, 2252 01:49:59,600 --> 01:50:01,800 Speaker 6: he's one of the smartest offensive lineman that they have, 2253 01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:03,880 Speaker 6: and for that to be the guy that you have 2254 01:50:04,240 --> 01:50:06,800 Speaker 6: as your center, that's where you want him obviously. And 2255 01:50:06,800 --> 01:50:09,160 Speaker 6: then the defense too, Kevin is something else. 2256 01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,680 Speaker 3: That Danton Lynn, who they got from UCLA, did a 2257 01:50:11,680 --> 01:50:13,760 Speaker 3: great job for them last year. They brought him over, 2258 01:50:13,840 --> 01:50:16,240 Speaker 3: gave him a pretty hefty contract to come and try 2259 01:50:16,240 --> 01:50:18,720 Speaker 3: to fix that USC defense after he got rid of 2260 01:50:18,760 --> 01:50:20,320 Speaker 3: his buddy Alex Grinch, and I know, you know, all 2261 01:50:20,360 --> 01:50:23,400 Speaker 3: these guys there, Chris, but they had to make a 2262 01:50:23,479 --> 01:50:24,519 Speaker 3: change on the defensive side. 2263 01:50:24,560 --> 01:50:25,559 Speaker 2: It just was not working. 2264 01:50:26,080 --> 01:50:29,280 Speaker 3: So we'll see what see what a difference danton Lynn 2265 01:50:29,280 --> 01:50:31,559 Speaker 3: makes for the defensive side. They got some transfer guys 2266 01:50:31,600 --> 01:50:32,920 Speaker 3: in on that side as well, and beefed up the 2267 01:50:32,920 --> 01:50:34,519 Speaker 3: defensive line, so we'll see what happens. 2268 01:50:34,800 --> 01:50:37,479 Speaker 2: I don't know either how much it changed, Ian, but 2269 01:50:38,479 --> 01:50:42,439 Speaker 2: you know, Grinch didn't want big, three hundred plus pound 2270 01:50:42,439 --> 01:50:47,040 Speaker 2: defensive tackles. He wanted dudes that could move. So I 2271 01:50:47,040 --> 01:50:50,160 Speaker 2: don't know if that adjusted much when he was at USC. 2272 01:50:50,400 --> 01:50:52,639 Speaker 2: I don't know if he stayed with that mindset he did, 2273 01:50:52,680 --> 01:50:55,200 Speaker 2: he did not adjust, Chris. I'll tell you they still 2274 01:50:55,200 --> 01:50:57,599 Speaker 2: recruited smaller guys. They wanted to be able to move around, 2275 01:50:57,760 --> 01:51:00,960 Speaker 2: move fast. That's not going to work. It didn't work 2276 01:51:01,040 --> 01:51:03,080 Speaker 2: number one in the BAC twelve. It's especially not going 2277 01:51:03,120 --> 01:51:04,519 Speaker 2: to work for them going into the Big ten. 2278 01:51:05,800 --> 01:51:08,720 Speaker 6: I'm hoping now that de'anton lynn is going to be, 2279 01:51:09,400 --> 01:51:11,760 Speaker 6: you know, what they were looking for on defense. And 2280 01:51:11,800 --> 01:51:13,800 Speaker 6: then they also hired the guy from the Rams too. 2281 01:51:13,840 --> 01:51:17,400 Speaker 6: What was it, Eric Henderson. I want to say his name. 2282 01:51:17,320 --> 01:51:19,920 Speaker 2: Is I believe that's his name. Yes, sir people former quarterback. 2283 01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:23,240 Speaker 6: Mom kidding, but he's got ties to Aaron Donald and 2284 01:51:23,240 --> 01:51:25,320 Speaker 6: that's been doing a lot for Reford in sensive line. 2285 01:51:25,360 --> 01:51:25,599 Speaker 2: Coach. 2286 01:51:26,520 --> 01:51:29,160 Speaker 6: All of this pretty much to say that USC could 2287 01:51:29,200 --> 01:51:31,240 Speaker 6: be really good, and I feel good about that. But 2288 01:51:31,400 --> 01:51:33,559 Speaker 6: it's just until you see a lot of this actually 2289 01:51:33,640 --> 01:51:36,400 Speaker 6: manifest itself on the field, it's hard to actually predict it. 2290 01:51:36,920 --> 01:51:38,680 Speaker 2: Well. Thankfully they get to ease their way into the 2291 01:51:38,880 --> 01:51:39,800 Speaker 2: start of the regular season. 2292 01:51:42,840 --> 01:51:44,919 Speaker 6: Yeah, not like he got a tough matchup to begin. 2293 01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:47,240 Speaker 2: What but if I'm going to play LSU, I want 2294 01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:48,880 Speaker 2: to do it early. Sure, no doubt, I want to 2295 01:51:48,880 --> 01:51:51,679 Speaker 2: do it early. They got the USC technically, I guess 2296 01:51:51,720 --> 01:51:54,439 Speaker 2: here has the more experienced quarterback. No, I guess they would, 2297 01:51:54,560 --> 01:51:56,839 Speaker 2: would they? Nest Meyer has been in college for eighty 2298 01:51:56,920 --> 01:51:59,840 Speaker 2: a year forever. Yeah exactly. Was he a five star? 2299 01:52:00,600 --> 01:52:02,679 Speaker 2: I think he was? Oh, dude, I think you're right. 2300 01:52:02,760 --> 01:52:06,080 Speaker 2: I think Garrionnsmeyer was because I get his dad was 2301 01:52:06,120 --> 01:52:09,120 Speaker 2: all over the coaching ranks. But yeah, he's a projected 2302 01:52:09,160 --> 01:52:11,120 Speaker 2: starter for LSU. By the way, for those that don't 2303 01:52:11,200 --> 01:52:13,880 Speaker 2: live this, every single second of the day, and you'll 2304 01:52:13,880 --> 01:52:16,599 Speaker 2: have two essential first year starters. Yeah, a tough part 2305 01:52:16,600 --> 01:52:17,760 Speaker 2: of that for SA two. 2306 01:52:17,760 --> 01:52:19,559 Speaker 3: Before we move off, as the fact that they just 2307 01:52:19,600 --> 01:52:23,280 Speaker 3: have a brutal schedule in general. I mean, LSU, You're 2308 01:52:23,320 --> 01:52:26,360 Speaker 3: at the Big House, You're taken on Penn State, You're 2309 01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:30,280 Speaker 3: at Washington. I mean it's not the easiest schedule. 2310 01:52:30,800 --> 01:52:32,960 Speaker 2: Speaking of tough schedules, I think Colorado has a very 2311 01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:36,519 Speaker 2: tough schedule. Yes, before we grab a break, what have 2312 01:52:36,600 --> 01:52:41,240 Speaker 2: you made of the circus since camp started for Colorado? 2313 01:52:41,680 --> 01:52:46,160 Speaker 2: Now again, you and I were talking, maybe oh Ied 2314 01:52:46,200 --> 01:52:48,800 Speaker 2: and I were talking off the air. Sometimes when things 2315 01:52:48,840 --> 01:52:52,360 Speaker 2: are going poorly, it's easy to pile on. I like 2316 01:52:52,400 --> 01:52:54,839 Speaker 2: to make the joke for those of you in Oklahoma today, 2317 01:52:55,080 --> 01:52:57,479 Speaker 2: I always like to make the joke when Spencer Rattler 2318 01:52:57,520 --> 01:53:01,120 Speaker 2: and Caleb Williams were having their quarterback battle, and Spencer, 2319 01:53:01,160 --> 01:53:02,639 Speaker 2: even though you was seven and ZH at the time, 2320 01:53:02,680 --> 01:53:07,040 Speaker 2: Spencer Ratler wasn't playing well. It became very easy and 2321 01:53:07,200 --> 01:53:11,320 Speaker 2: very popular to just hate on Spencer Rattler for the 2322 01:53:11,360 --> 01:53:14,280 Speaker 2: sake of hating on him. Like I saw Spencer Rattler 2323 01:53:14,320 --> 01:53:18,520 Speaker 2: on campus corner and Kevin Figures he pushed me aside. 2324 01:53:18,600 --> 01:53:22,080 Speaker 2: You know, just hold that story right, to just hate 2325 01:53:22,080 --> 01:53:25,240 Speaker 2: on him. So I feel like whenever you hear a 2326 01:53:25,280 --> 01:53:29,080 Speaker 2: former player said with this Deon Sanders story and the 2327 01:53:29,160 --> 01:53:32,120 Speaker 2: locker room is like a like a game, like a 2328 01:53:32,200 --> 01:53:35,760 Speaker 2: video game. Yeah, it's just not in a good way. 2329 01:53:37,120 --> 01:53:39,320 Speaker 2: I don't know how much I can put into that because, 2330 01:53:39,760 --> 01:53:42,080 Speaker 2: like I said, I don't know the whole story. I 2331 01:53:42,080 --> 01:53:45,160 Speaker 2: don't know if it's just popular to pile on because 2332 01:53:45,200 --> 01:53:48,080 Speaker 2: you're not there, But what is kind of your vibe 2333 01:53:48,080 --> 01:53:50,120 Speaker 2: that you're getting that's three big day, Travis Hun'm not 2334 01:53:50,160 --> 01:53:55,120 Speaker 2: getting hit? In practice? You had Travis Hunter is a 2335 01:53:55,200 --> 01:53:57,519 Speaker 2: cornerback and he's like, don't hit Travis. You're not hitting 2336 01:53:57,560 --> 01:54:00,839 Speaker 2: Travis today. And then you have this mess and with 2337 01:54:00,840 --> 01:54:04,320 Speaker 2: with Dion going after CBS but doing it in the 2338 01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:07,840 Speaker 2: coach primest way possible. What have you made over the 2339 01:54:07,880 --> 01:54:11,000 Speaker 2: Colorado Buzz are locked thereof since the start of camp? 2340 01:54:11,000 --> 01:54:12,439 Speaker 2: All right, So a couple of different things. 2341 01:54:12,439 --> 01:54:15,439 Speaker 3: One on the anonymous players taking shots at Dion and 2342 01:54:15,479 --> 01:54:17,120 Speaker 3: the kind of ship he's running. I don't think that 2343 01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:20,559 Speaker 3: this is wholly uncommon, especially when a player either transfers 2344 01:54:20,600 --> 01:54:22,439 Speaker 3: out or I mean, heck could be guys that he 2345 01:54:22,479 --> 01:54:27,080 Speaker 3: booted off. So there's gonna there's always disgruntle players who 2346 01:54:27,080 --> 01:54:29,400 Speaker 3: are gonna have unfavorable things to say about a place 2347 01:54:29,400 --> 01:54:31,479 Speaker 3: that they wanted to play and for whatever reason, their 2348 01:54:31,479 --> 01:54:34,000 Speaker 3: services are no longer needed. So I kind of take 2349 01:54:34,000 --> 01:54:35,560 Speaker 3: that with a bit of a grain of salt. 2350 01:54:35,840 --> 01:54:36,000 Speaker 6: Uh. 2351 01:54:36,040 --> 01:54:39,600 Speaker 3: The Travis Hunter thing is interesting. It's definitely different, but 2352 01:54:39,680 --> 01:54:42,040 Speaker 3: I understand it. This is the guy that had more 2353 01:54:42,080 --> 01:54:44,880 Speaker 3: touches than anybody last year, is it more than in 2354 01:54:44,880 --> 01:54:48,120 Speaker 3: the history of college football? And more snaps play than anybody? Say, Yeah, 2355 01:54:48,160 --> 01:54:50,600 Speaker 3: I mean it's it's insane, and rightfully so, He's I mean, 2356 01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:53,240 Speaker 3: a dynamic player on both sides of the ball. Might 2357 01:54:53,280 --> 01:54:55,280 Speaker 3: be it might be a little bit over the top 2358 01:54:55,320 --> 01:54:57,480 Speaker 3: to say do not touch him like he's a quarterback. Yeah, 2359 01:54:57,520 --> 01:55:00,480 Speaker 3: but I certainly understand why you'd want to protect. I 2360 01:55:00,480 --> 01:55:02,640 Speaker 3: hate to call him an asset, but he's an asset. 2361 01:55:02,720 --> 01:55:04,400 Speaker 3: You're not if they're going to go where they think 2362 01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:06,000 Speaker 3: they're going to go, they're not going to do it 2363 01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:06,920 Speaker 3: without Travis Hunter. 2364 01:55:07,240 --> 01:55:08,680 Speaker 2: So that's one that I understand. 2365 01:55:08,920 --> 01:55:10,680 Speaker 3: I'm not a fan of the way that he's handling 2366 01:55:10,720 --> 01:55:13,040 Speaker 3: the media and that press conference the other day that 2367 01:55:13,480 --> 01:55:16,120 Speaker 3: was wholly unnecessary, taking shots at the media saying like, well, 2368 01:55:16,120 --> 01:55:17,840 Speaker 3: I I'm not going to answer your questions until you 2369 01:55:17,880 --> 01:55:20,520 Speaker 3: answer my questions. Like, that's not how it works, Dean 2370 01:55:21,440 --> 01:55:23,120 Speaker 3: to ask you a question about the Hey, look, if 2371 01:55:23,120 --> 01:55:25,000 Speaker 3: you have issues with the way that they're covering your team, 2372 01:55:25,280 --> 01:55:27,960 Speaker 3: that's something that you guys can address. But for there 2373 01:55:28,720 --> 01:55:31,320 Speaker 3: at the press conference, just do your job as the coach. 2374 01:55:31,480 --> 01:55:33,840 Speaker 3: Answer the questions at the press conference. Talk to an 2375 01:55:33,920 --> 01:55:35,360 Speaker 3: SID and see if you can set up a one 2376 01:55:35,360 --> 01:55:36,800 Speaker 3: on one and see if you guys can hash out 2377 01:55:36,840 --> 01:55:37,880 Speaker 3: whatever you need to hash out. 2378 01:55:37,880 --> 01:55:40,520 Speaker 2: But I just don't think that was the most mature 2379 01:55:40,560 --> 01:55:44,520 Speaker 2: way to handle that. Yes, it's not smart. You'll hear 2380 01:55:44,560 --> 01:55:48,120 Speaker 2: it next, coach. Prime was the talk of college football 2381 01:55:48,160 --> 01:55:50,640 Speaker 2: last year. Oh we coming, remember everyone heard the press 2382 01:55:50,640 --> 01:55:55,720 Speaker 2: conference three and OHO, then Reality kicked in a Game Day, 2383 01:55:56,040 --> 01:56:01,240 Speaker 2: A Game Day, Fox Pig Nude Kick The is the 2384 01:56:01,280 --> 01:56:04,960 Speaker 2: Spanish language version of those shows. Everyone was in Boulder, 2385 01:56:05,040 --> 01:56:07,960 Speaker 2: Colorado last year and what week three? It was just 2386 01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:10,680 Speaker 2: it was one of the most amazing scenes I've seen 2387 01:56:10,720 --> 01:56:13,120 Speaker 2: in college football. And in the span of a year, 2388 01:56:13,840 --> 01:56:17,000 Speaker 2: it's gone from I'm bringing Louie, I got guys at 2389 01:56:17,000 --> 01:56:21,960 Speaker 2: the airport. You know, don't touch my kids. You gotta 2390 01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:24,000 Speaker 2: go to my kids concert, right, wasn't that the rumor 2391 01:56:24,240 --> 01:56:26,040 Speaker 2: for a while, Yeah, you better go to my kids 2392 01:56:26,120 --> 01:56:30,200 Speaker 2: concert to uh, don't hit travish all of these things. 2393 01:56:30,800 --> 01:56:32,440 Speaker 2: But to me, I do think I agree.

He starts by going after a CBS 2409 01:57:25,880 --> 01:57:27,640 Speaker 2: reporter for reasons we still don't know. 2410 01:57:27,840 --> 01:57:29,920 Speaker 1: Eric Kristensen with CBS Sports Colorado. 2411 01:57:30,280 --> 01:57:33,560 Speaker 12: You doing sis, I'm not doing none with CBS.

I got love 2415 01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:40,640 Speaker 12: for you, I appreciate, respect you, and got none to 2416 01:57:40,680 --> 01:57:41,000 Speaker 12: do with you. 2417 01:57:41,240 --> 01:57:42,120 Speaker 13: They know what they did. 2418 01:57:42,560 --> 01:57:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm here at Deadver, not National. 2419 01:57:44,560 --> 01:57:48,360 Speaker 12: You are who you are, CBS to CBS, all right, Jeff, 2420 01:57:49,360 --> 01:57:51,200 Speaker 12: I respect you, and that's why I told you that 2421 01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:52,480 Speaker 12: I'm looking at you and now as a man. 2422 01:57:52,560 --> 01:57:54,480 Speaker 2: I respect you, I got love for you. But what 2423 01:57:54,560 --> 01:57:57,520 Speaker 2: they did was foule. I'm looking at you like a 2424 01:57:57,600 --> 01:58:00,840 Speaker 2: man in the eyes with my sunglasses on. I guess, yeah, 2425 01:58:01,040 --> 01:58:04,040 Speaker 2: my sunglasses indoors, which it's always a great look. So 2426 01:58:05,120 --> 01:58:07,960 Speaker 2: that's the that's the kind of back and forth. When 2427 01:58:08,560 --> 01:58:10,680 Speaker 2: viral along with this, this was the one that just 2428 01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:13,840 Speaker 2: didn't make a lot of sense to me. I guess 2429 01:58:13,920 --> 01:58:16,200 Speaker 2: Dion has had some problems with the way that a 2430 01:58:16,240 --> 01:58:20,440 Speaker 2: certain reporter has covered his team, so during this same 2431 01:58:20,480 --> 01:58:23,200 Speaker 2: press conference, he he turned the tables. 2432 01:58:24,120 --> 01:58:26,840 Speaker 12: I'm asking you why you can ask that that answer 2433 01:58:27,440 --> 01:58:28,480 Speaker 12: because you want me to answer you. 2434 01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:32,240 Speaker 2: Okay, that's why that's fair. Why? Why? Because I am pressure? 2435 01:58:32,360 --> 01:58:34,400 Speaker 2: Why what what what's your why? What do you want 2436 01:58:34,400 --> 01:58:34,520 Speaker 2: to know? 2437 01:58:35,120 --> 01:58:37,080 Speaker 14: Why do you you always un attack? 2438 01:58:37,360 --> 01:58:39,960 Speaker 2: Like what what do we do? Where a where my 2439 01:58:40,040 --> 01:58:41,720 Speaker 2: own attack? Today? Where am I own attack? 2440 01:58:42,280 --> 01:58:44,200 Speaker 12: I'm gonna I'm not gonna give you opportunities to be 2441 01:58:44,240 --> 01:58:48,680 Speaker 12: on a tack. I'm asking you why, Like what does 2442 01:58:48,680 --> 01:58:49,280 Speaker 12: it do for you? 2443 01:58:49,360 --> 01:58:53,040 Speaker 2: Like Bates Night so poor editing job? Sorry, Ian, that's 2444 01:58:53,080 --> 01:58:56,080 Speaker 2: my bad? Like what what's he doing? 2445 01:58:56,360 --> 01:58:59,960 Speaker 3: I don't now someone believes that that writer or whoever 2446 01:59:00,160 --> 01:59:03,600 Speaker 3: you know, did a story on his son Shiloh who 2447 01:59:03,600 --> 01:59:05,800 Speaker 3: had the bankruptcy thing come up a couple of weeks ago, 2448 01:59:05,880 --> 01:59:08,640 Speaker 3: And I don't know exactly what he may have written 2449 01:59:08,720 --> 01:59:11,280 Speaker 3: or may have said. But again, that's something that you 2450 01:59:11,560 --> 01:59:14,280 Speaker 3: can address and not in a forum like that. You know, 2451 01:59:14,360 --> 01:59:16,040 Speaker 3: you can talk to an SID, you can go behind 2452 01:59:16,040 --> 01:59:17,880 Speaker 3: closed doors and have that conversation if you want to 2453 01:59:17,880 --> 01:59:19,640 Speaker 3: have that conversation. But I don't say I'm not going 2454 01:59:19,680 --> 01:59:22,720 Speaker 3: to answer your questions until you know, we have a 2455 01:59:22,720 --> 01:59:24,520 Speaker 3: conversation as I'm trying to have a conversation right now, 2456 01:59:24,520 --> 01:59:26,440 Speaker 3: But you don't want to talk, like which is it? 2457 01:59:26,680 --> 01:59:28,800 Speaker 2: Did you did you listen to the whole thing? I 2458 01:59:28,880 --> 01:59:32,640 Speaker 2: kind of I don't know Sean Keeler, but I've been 2459 01:59:32,680 --> 01:59:36,080 Speaker 2: in those situations where it's like next question and you're 2460 01:59:36,120 --> 01:59:37,640 Speaker 2: trying to create. You want to get a good answer, 2461 01:59:37,720 --> 01:59:42,520 Speaker 2: So it's what's going coach, and and Sean Keeler is, hey, hey, 2462 01:59:42,560 --> 01:59:44,280 Speaker 2: coach him, my man, how's it going? And all of 2463 01:59:44,280 --> 01:59:49,560 Speaker 2: a sudden I goes it shakes his head. I'm like, oh, 2464 01:59:49,600 --> 01:59:53,760 Speaker 2: where are we going here? I want the Deon Sanders 2465 01:59:53,760 --> 01:59:56,640 Speaker 2: experience and experiment. I guess I should say to work 2466 01:59:57,080 --> 02:00:00,280 Speaker 2: badly and I'll tell you why, because to me, it 2467 02:00:00,320 --> 02:00:03,160 Speaker 2: gets more eyes on college football. Yeah, good sport. I 2468 02:00:03,160 --> 02:00:06,280 Speaker 2: think there's a little bit for a lot of NFL 2469 02:00:06,360 --> 02:00:08,680 Speaker 2: fans that are just NFL fans, there's a little bit 2470 02:00:08,680 --> 02:00:11,160 Speaker 2: of a look down your nose at college football. But 2471 02:00:11,560 --> 02:00:15,360 Speaker 2: even if you're not just tuned in for everyone I see, 2472 02:00:15,400 --> 02:00:17,720 Speaker 2: I can't fathom that that's so hard to register in 2473 02:00:17,720 --> 02:00:19,600 Speaker 2: my mind that there's people that like, ah, I watched 2474 02:00:19,640 --> 02:00:22,320 Speaker 2: the NFL and not college I'm like, do you not 2475 02:00:22,520 --> 02:00:25,680 Speaker 2: like life? I mean, take it all in, but it's 2476 02:00:25,720 --> 02:00:27,920 Speaker 2: out there. It's out there. I mean, Shady Shaw's probably 2477 02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:30,080 Speaker 2: ripping me up and down right now on Twitter for 2478 02:00:30,120 --> 02:00:33,680 Speaker 2: all this time on second rate sports. But I got 2479 02:00:33,680 --> 02:00:37,040 Speaker 2: to tell you something, Man Prime brings more eyes, there's 2480 02:00:37,080 --> 02:00:40,240 Speaker 2: more buzz. His son's good. He's got maybe one of 2481 02:00:40,240 --> 02:00:42,040 Speaker 2: the most electric players in the history of the game 2482 02:00:42,080 --> 02:00:44,560 Speaker 2: in Travis Hunter. I just don't know if it's gonna work. 2483 02:00:44,920 --> 02:00:48,320 Speaker 2: I've never seen this approach work. Never seen it work 2484 02:00:48,360 --> 02:00:51,480 Speaker 2: whenever you're not winning. When you're winning, maybe he's big 2485 02:00:51,480 --> 02:00:53,760 Speaker 2: of a jerkers you want you can get guys fired 2486 02:00:53,760 --> 02:00:56,760 Speaker 2: for no reason. You're winning when you're not, and that's 2487 02:00:56,800 --> 02:00:57,360 Speaker 2: your approach. 2488 02:00:58,280 --> 02:01:00,440 Speaker 3: Never seen it work and didn't get home well one 2489 02:01:00,520 --> 02:01:03,040 Speaker 3: bit last year when things got off to such a 2490 02:01:03,040 --> 02:01:05,080 Speaker 3: hot start, and you know, I kept on talking the 2491 02:01:05,080 --> 02:01:07,240 Speaker 3: talk and doing this thing. We'll see how it plays 2492 02:01:07,240 --> 02:01:08,520 Speaker 3: out this year, though I don't know if it'll be 2493 02:01:08,560 --> 02:01:09,360 Speaker 3: much different. 2494 02:01:09,760 --> 02:01:12,280 Speaker 2: Meaning me neither.

Between him and our former co worker 2517 02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:17,360 Speaker 2: Andrew Ceciliano. Correct, they were working together on the desk. Yes, 2518 02:02:17,600 --> 02:02:20,520 Speaker 2: Ceciliano all believe is part of the golds on as well. Yeah, 2519 02:02:20,560 --> 02:02:23,640 Speaker 2: they were there.

Are we are? Are we excited? I mean 2522 02:02:34,280 --> 02:02:36,400 Speaker 2: when I say we, you know I'm talking about Irish 2523 02:02:36,480 --> 02:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Raider Raider fan Tim and of course, Kevin Figures and 2524 02:02:39,840 --> 02:02:44,240 Speaker 2: Raider fan Plank are we excited because I gotta be 2525 02:02:44,280 --> 02:02:46,280 Speaker 2: honest with you guys, And I never knew this was possible. 2526 02:02:46,880 --> 02:02:50,080 Speaker 2: A coach ruined my love for my team for a while, 2527 02:02:50,360 --> 02:02:53,680 Speaker 2: like Josh McDaniels literally sucked my soul out as a 2528 02:02:53,760 --> 02:02:57,600 Speaker 2: Raiders fan. The man kneecapped me. He took me down, 2529 02:02:57,880 --> 02:03:01,360 Speaker 2: and I was out. I've never been more disgusted, sad, 2530 02:03:01,400 --> 02:03:04,920 Speaker 2: and depressed. Now, granted I've there's been some family members 2531 02:03:04,920 --> 02:03:07,360 Speaker 2: that I've lost, but Josh McDaniels and what he did 2532 02:03:07,360 --> 02:03:09,120 Speaker 2: to me pretty high up there. 2533 02:03:09,160 --> 02:03:11,320 Speaker 3: And consider how bad that franchise has been for as 2534 02:03:11,320 --> 02:03:14,839 Speaker 3: long as it's been. That's that tells you something right there. Oh, 2535 02:03:15,600 --> 02:03:19,600 Speaker 3: I know it took him to suck my will to live. 2536 02:03:19,880 --> 02:03:23,680 Speaker 3: But then ap Antonio Pierce comes along and I'm juiced. 2537 02:03:23,960 --> 02:03:27,640 Speaker 3: I'm with you and I'm excited, and I you know, 2538 02:03:28,560 --> 02:03:31,920 Speaker 3: I think Max Crosby is is that dude? I think 2539 02:03:31,920 --> 02:03:34,440 Speaker 3: the Christian Wilkins was huge acquisition. 2540 02:03:34,640 --> 02:03:38,120 Speaker 2: Is slept On. I love what Malcolm Koons is developing 2541 02:03:38,120 --> 02:03:42,080 Speaker 2: into their other edge rusher Divine. I could go through 2542 02:03:42,080 --> 02:03:44,760 Speaker 2: that defense Divine Diablo Jack Jones looks like he's going 2543 02:03:44,840 --> 02:03:47,560 Speaker 2: to be a fine to steal. Some even debated whether 2544 02:03:47,640 --> 02:03:49,800 Speaker 2: or not he should be mentioned along with Max Crosby 2545 02:03:49,840 --> 02:03:52,480 Speaker 2: as the head of camp. Yes. By the way, as 2546 02:03:52,480 --> 02:03:54,360 Speaker 2: soon as I complain about never seeing anyone on the 2547 02:03:54,640 --> 02:03:59,960 Speaker 2: on the gold zone on camera, there's Jack Coleman, Jack Collinsworth. Yeah, oh, 2548 02:04:00,080 --> 02:04:01,920 Speaker 2: I guess you do see people on the gold zone. 2549 02:04:02,160 --> 02:04:05,080 Speaker 2: But my point on the Raiders, I really really believe 2550 02:04:05,080 --> 02:04:07,760 Speaker 2: in this defense. I think it's got the potential to 2551 02:04:07,880 --> 02:04:14,120 Speaker 2: be really good. I'm fully smokes, smokes, dude. The offense 2552 02:04:14,240 --> 02:04:16,800 Speaker 2: is pulling me back too quickly. Yeah, he got offensive 2553 02:04:16,800 --> 02:04:18,800 Speaker 2: line issues. Calton Miller hasn't been healthy. 2554 02:04:18,960 --> 02:04:21,480 Speaker 3: Powers Johnson, who they drafted to be a starter, hasn't 2555 02:04:21,560 --> 02:04:24,320 Speaker 3: you know, hasn't really participated in camp because he's been hurt. 2556 02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:27,080 Speaker 3: And then the biggest question MARKO force is the quarterback position. 2557 02:04:27,320 --> 02:04:29,840 Speaker 3: You know, would that be worse off right now if 2558 02:04:29,880 --> 02:04:33,440 Speaker 3: they still had Derek Carr? No, listen, I'm a car defender. 2559 02:04:33,880 --> 02:04:35,280 Speaker 3: I was for years too. 2560 02:04:35,920 --> 02:04:36,600 Speaker 2: What changed? 2561 02:04:38,640 --> 02:04:41,160 Speaker 3: It's almost never one game, but I go back to 2562 02:04:41,200 --> 02:04:45,960 Speaker 3: that Christmas game in Pittsburgh and when he overthrows Hunter 2563 02:04:46,080 --> 02:04:49,240 Speaker 3: andfro Andro and there are just too many moments like 2564 02:04:49,320 --> 02:04:51,280 Speaker 3: that the Charger game where he threw the ball out 2565 02:04:51,320 --> 02:04:52,880 Speaker 3: of the back of the end zone on fourth down. 2566 02:04:53,000 --> 02:04:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. 2567 02:04:53,760 --> 02:04:56,000 Speaker 3: There are just too many of those plays over a 2568 02:04:56,040 --> 02:04:58,160 Speaker 3: decade long that I just said. I love the guy 2569 02:04:58,200 --> 02:05:00,480 Speaker 3: to death, but I just can't do it anymore. 2570 02:05:00,720 --> 02:05:03,040 Speaker 2: I yeah, I think they'd be infinitely better if Carr 2571 02:05:03,120 --> 02:05:03,720 Speaker 2: was a quarterback. 2572 02:05:03,800 --> 02:05:06,000 Speaker 3: I agree, Carl's always He's one of those guys. I 2573 02:05:06,000 --> 02:05:09,960 Speaker 3: think if you have enough around him, you can win 2574 02:05:10,040 --> 02:05:11,640 Speaker 3: with now. Whether or not you win a championship and 2575 02:05:11,720 --> 02:05:13,200 Speaker 3: we can go to the super Bowl, but you can 2576 02:05:13,240 --> 02:05:15,440 Speaker 3: you can be a perennial playoff contender with him as 2577 02:05:15,440 --> 02:05:17,080 Speaker 3: your quarterback if you have enough around him. 2578 02:05:17,320 --> 02:05:19,680 Speaker 2: I believe that, and I think the Saints have a 2579 02:05:19,680 --> 02:05:21,680 Speaker 2: lot around him. I think people are sleeping on New Orleans. 2580 02:05:21,720 --> 02:05:23,160 Speaker 2: I agree, by the way, I'm with you on that. 2581 02:05:23,520 --> 02:05:28,320 Speaker 2: But back to my original question, are you believing? I mean, 2582 02:05:29,040 --> 02:05:31,760 Speaker 2: is the offensive questions enough as a Raider fan to 2583 02:05:31,760 --> 02:05:33,880 Speaker 2: make you say, don't know if I can do this? 2584 02:05:34,160 --> 02:05:36,160 Speaker 2: Don't know if I can't. I can't allow myself to 2585 02:05:36,160 --> 02:05:38,160 Speaker 2: get emotionally invested in this when we're not going to 2586 02:05:38,200 --> 02:05:38,520 Speaker 2: be able to. 2587 02:05:38,520 --> 02:05:41,080 Speaker 3: Score that's my thing, that's my felt, my feeling. I 2588 02:05:41,360 --> 02:05:43,400 Speaker 3: can't get to invest it. I can't get too excited 2589 02:05:43,480 --> 02:05:49,600 Speaker 3: because the offensive ineptitude is real, it really is, and 2590 02:05:49,640 --> 02:05:51,640 Speaker 3: I don't and I can't look. I don't hold Lugetzi, 2591 02:05:51,880 --> 02:05:55,840 Speaker 3: you know, responsible fully for the Chicago situation. Anybody that 2592 02:05:55,880 --> 02:05:57,280 Speaker 3: does listened to me over the years. I'm not a 2593 02:05:57,280 --> 02:05:59,640 Speaker 3: fan of Justin Fields at all. So I don't think 2594 02:05:59,640 --> 02:06:01,600 Speaker 3: he's starting caliber NFL quarterback. 2595 02:06:01,640 --> 02:06:02,200 Speaker 2: I just don't. 2596 02:06:02,680 --> 02:06:04,800 Speaker 3: So I do think lu Getzi was limited in what 2597 02:06:04,840 --> 02:06:08,280 Speaker 3: he actually could do from a play calling standpoint through. 2598 02:06:08,120 --> 02:06:09,080 Speaker 2: His ten yure in Chicago. 2599 02:06:09,120 --> 02:06:10,800 Speaker 3: So I don't even know if their offensive issues are 2600 02:06:10,840 --> 02:06:13,360 Speaker 3: fully his fault, But it's not like he has a 2601 02:06:13,360 --> 02:06:15,320 Speaker 3: lot to work with in the quarterback position. Now in 2602 02:06:15,880 --> 02:06:19,960 Speaker 3: Las Vegas, either got nothing, no nothing. 2603 02:06:20,320 --> 02:06:22,800 Speaker 2: I got so excited. It was like Raiders signed quarterback. 2604 02:06:22,840 --> 02:06:24,800 Speaker 2: And at that time, there's a lot of different names 2605 02:06:24,840 --> 02:06:27,440 Speaker 2: that were kind of floating around, and then I see 2606 02:06:27,480 --> 02:06:30,840 Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew, and what are we doing right now? Why 2607 02:06:30,840 --> 02:06:35,040 Speaker 2: wouldn't you sign Flako? Why not? Right? Why not? Or 2608 02:06:35,080 --> 02:06:36,880 Speaker 2: at least take a flyer on one of these rookie 2609 02:06:36,880 --> 02:06:39,920 Speaker 2: one of these draft and dressed somebody. You know, I 2610 02:06:39,960 --> 02:06:43,120 Speaker 2: appreciate An O'Connell, and I think they really want him 2611 02:06:43,160 --> 02:06:45,960 Speaker 2: to win the job. They're giving him every opportunity, and 2612 02:06:46,800 --> 02:06:50,320 Speaker 2: guess what, he hasn't won the job, right, Yeah, So 2613 02:06:50,640 --> 02:06:54,480 Speaker 2: that's a little bit concerning that. I'm I'm allowing myself 2614 02:06:54,480 --> 02:06:57,440 Speaker 2: to get emotionally invested. I'm not. I'm sorry. I can't 2615 02:06:57,440 --> 02:06:59,960 Speaker 2: even be cautiously optimistic. I'm pretty bad. 2616 02:07:00,040 --> 02:07:02,760 Speaker 3: I'm pretty pessimistic to be I am okay, okay, all 2617 02:07:02,840 --> 02:07:06,080 Speaker 3: right about the offense. At the very least, you know, 2618 02:07:06,120 --> 02:07:09,120 Speaker 3: I feel like we defense, I'm with you one thousand percent. 2619 02:07:09,400 --> 02:07:11,360 Speaker 3: Then you wonder as good as I think they can 2620 02:07:11,400 --> 02:07:13,640 Speaker 3: be on defense, at what point in time, if it's 2621 02:07:13,640 --> 02:07:16,000 Speaker 3: like week six or seven, at what point in time 2622 02:07:16,040 --> 02:07:17,640 Speaker 3: they kind of check out and they say, I'm tired 2623 02:07:17,680 --> 02:07:20,640 Speaker 3: of this stuff, and the defense starts to suffer a 2624 02:07:20,680 --> 02:07:22,560 Speaker 3: little bit because they're tired of having to pick up 2625 02:07:22,600 --> 02:07:26,000 Speaker 3: the slack for the offense. We've seen situations like this happen. 2626 02:07:26,280 --> 02:07:28,880 Speaker 3: I don't know if there's so good defensively. Look as 2627 02:07:28,880 --> 02:07:31,800 Speaker 3: good as they are, they're not the Baltimore Ravens or 2628 02:07:31,840 --> 02:07:34,640 Speaker 3: those great Buccaneer defenses where they're just gonna, you know, 2629 02:07:34,680 --> 02:07:37,400 Speaker 3: shut people out and literally win games by themselves and 2630 02:07:37,760 --> 02:07:38,960 Speaker 3: will themselves to the playoffs. 2631 02:07:39,000 --> 02:07:40,000 Speaker 2: I don't think they're that good. 2632 02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:43,160 Speaker 3: And because they aren't that good, and the offense, I 2633 02:07:43,200 --> 02:07:46,440 Speaker 3: think can drag them down. I think Devonte starts making noise. 2634 02:07:47,120 --> 02:07:48,600 Speaker 3: He might not be there by the time the trade 2635 02:07:48,600 --> 02:07:51,120 Speaker 3: deadline rolls around, which probably for the honestly, for the 2636 02:07:51,120 --> 02:07:53,720 Speaker 3: greater good of the franchise, is a good thing. If 2637 02:07:53,760 --> 02:07:55,520 Speaker 3: you can get some assets for him, You're not winning 2638 02:07:55,520 --> 02:07:57,600 Speaker 3: with him, so why not try to get some draft 2639 02:07:57,600 --> 02:07:59,360 Speaker 3: picks and free up some money and do something down 2640 02:07:59,360 --> 02:07:59,680 Speaker 3: the road. 2641 02:08:00,080 --> 02:08:03,600 Speaker 2: Don't break them up. I'm sorry, that's okay, Uh, it's 2642 02:08:04,440 --> 02:08:06,960 Speaker 2: it's no big deal. Just at about let's see, what's 2643 02:08:07,000 --> 02:08:09,840 Speaker 2: what's the Raiders game? Four o'clock this afternoon? Yeah, it's 2644 02:08:09,960 --> 02:08:12,640 Speaker 2: just about four thirty. All have either decided that I'm 2645 02:08:13,040 --> 02:08:15,160 Speaker 2: I'm the happiest man on the planet or the saddest. 2646 02:08:15,560 --> 02:08:17,680 Speaker 2: There will be no in between. When it comes. I 2647 02:08:17,760 --> 02:08:19,800 Speaker 2: let myself go this summer. I'm just gonna be honest 2648 02:08:19,840 --> 02:08:21,560 Speaker 2: with you. I let myself go. And in the middle 2649 02:08:21,960 --> 02:08:26,600 Speaker 2: of extra snacks and ice cream and no walking or exercising, 2650 02:08:26,920 --> 02:08:30,480 Speaker 2: I realized buddy, you might have to stick around for 2651 02:08:30,520 --> 02:08:32,080 Speaker 2: a while if you want to see your Raiders be 2652 02:08:32,160 --> 02:08:34,360 Speaker 2: good again. So I've gotten back in shape, k fake. 2653 02:08:34,440 --> 02:08:36,160 Speaker 2: That kind of shows you where my level of concern 2654 02:08:36,280 --> 02:08:38,040 Speaker 2: that stuffed you this year. You were just getting into 2655 02:08:38,080 --> 02:08:41,320 Speaker 2: football shape. That's that's where broadcasters in drunk for during 2656 02:08:41,360 --> 02:08:43,640 Speaker 2: football season. That's football shape for us. All right, I 2657 02:08:43,720 --> 02:08:46,160 Speaker 2: let myself go this summer. But then I was like, buddy, 2658 02:08:46,200 --> 02:08:48,640 Speaker 2: first of all, you got football. Secondly, and most importantly, 2659 02:08:48,880 --> 02:08:50,920 Speaker 2: I don't think this team is winning anytime soon. You 2660 02:08:50,960 --> 02:08:53,040 Speaker 2: got to stay on this aret a little longer. If 2661 02:08:53,040 --> 02:08:54,200 Speaker 2: the Raiders are going to be good. 2662 02:08:54,240 --> 02:08:56,920 Speaker 3: Now, we're doing some of that good even in the 2663 02:08:56,960 --> 02:08:58,520 Speaker 3: SEC this year in your travels now. 2664 02:08:58,760 --> 02:09:01,160 Speaker 2: But let me tell you something. Top five most excited 2665 02:09:01,200 --> 02:09:03,920 Speaker 2: I've been for anything is these trips. I'm sure, but 2666 02:09:04,080 --> 02:09:08,200 Speaker 2: I'm also I want to make them so I can 2667 02:09:08,280 --> 02:09:10,480 Speaker 2: understand the lay of the land and then get even 2668 02:09:10,520 --> 02:09:13,600 Speaker 2: overly excited for my second trip. Right because, for instance, 2669 02:09:14,080 --> 02:09:16,640 Speaker 2: as a side for those that aren't familiar with yes 2670 02:09:17,080 --> 02:09:20,240 Speaker 2: with the resume, Kevin and I are college football diehards, 2671 02:09:20,280 --> 02:09:23,160 Speaker 2: and I cover college football for the University of Oklahoma. 2672 02:09:23,160 --> 02:09:26,400 Speaker 2: Their sideliner reporter, and so that's now as a longtime 2673 02:09:26,440 --> 02:09:28,839 Speaker 2: member of the SEC, I'm kind of like SEC royalty, 2674 02:09:28,920 --> 02:09:31,600 Speaker 2: of course, is what they say. I'm so excited to 2675 02:09:31,640 --> 02:09:33,880 Speaker 2: go to Let's say we're going to the Grove this year, 2676 02:09:33,920 --> 02:09:35,960 Speaker 2: going to Oxford, going to Auburn. That was a guy 2677 02:09:36,040 --> 02:09:38,200 Speaker 2: to go to Auburn. You know, all these places that 2678 02:09:38,280 --> 02:09:40,840 Speaker 2: I've never been for a football game day. But I'm 2679 02:09:40,840 --> 02:09:43,320 Speaker 2: also a nervous nelly, so I want to get there 2680 02:09:43,480 --> 02:09:48,120 Speaker 2: and figure everything out. Right. I don't know, no no 2681 02:09:48,200 --> 02:09:49,560 Speaker 2: where I need to be, no where ney to go. 2682 02:09:49,640 --> 02:09:51,839 Speaker 2: So I'll enjoy it this year, but I will truly 2683 02:09:51,920 --> 02:09:54,560 Speaker 2: enjoy that second time you get to make that trip. 2684 02:09:55,120 --> 02:09:58,640 Speaker 2: I saw this, speaking of practice, I had news hit 2685 02:09:58,720 --> 02:10:00,560 Speaker 2: us up and writes reports going on around the Patrick 2686 02:10:00,640 --> 02:10:03,840 Speaker 2: Mahomes is completing behind the back passes on goal line 2687 02:10:03,880 --> 02:10:07,080 Speaker 2: in short yardage situations, in scrimmages. Perhaps a play to 2688 02:10:07,120 --> 02:10:12,920 Speaker 2: spice up the Raiders game. Perhaps. I I hate that 2689 02:10:13,000 --> 02:10:15,720 Speaker 2: he's so awesome. I hate that he's so good that 2690 02:10:15,760 --> 02:10:18,800 Speaker 2: he's love you. I hate that he's a chief. I 2691 02:10:18,800 --> 02:10:21,800 Speaker 2: mean I can handle be like a lion, right, I mean, 2692 02:10:22,280 --> 02:10:25,800 Speaker 2: a buccaneer he could be, but a chief because he's 2693 02:10:25,800 --> 02:10:28,480 Speaker 2: so likable and he's so good, and that's one of 2694 02:10:28,520 --> 02:10:33,200 Speaker 2: the things that maybe leads to my pessimistic side for 2695 02:10:33,240 --> 02:10:36,000 Speaker 2: anything in the AFC West, if it's Chargers Broncos, or 2696 02:10:36,040 --> 02:10:38,680 Speaker 2: obviously for me, the Raiders. I just I don't know 2697 02:10:38,720 --> 02:10:40,760 Speaker 2: if anyone still has anything for him once it comes 2698 02:10:40,760 --> 02:10:43,200 Speaker 2: to the playoffs. No, they don't. 2699 02:10:43,320 --> 02:10:46,720 Speaker 3: No one's figured it out and think they're going to Yeah. 2700 02:10:46,920 --> 02:10:50,680 Speaker 3: I mean, let's see, it's hurt what she Obviously you 2701 02:10:50,720 --> 02:10:52,680 Speaker 3: don't want to happen. I will even think I banged 2702 02:10:52,760 --> 02:10:54,600 Speaker 3: up in that playoff game, but I think against Jacksonville 2703 02:10:54,600 --> 02:10:56,080 Speaker 3: a couple of years ago, and that still didn't slow 2704 02:10:56,120 --> 02:10:56,400 Speaker 3: him down. 2705 02:10:56,440 --> 02:10:59,960 Speaker 2: He came back in was it Chief came in Cleveland? 2706 02:11:00,200 --> 02:11:01,040 Speaker 2: Was it Cleveland? Okay? 2707 02:11:01,120 --> 02:11:02,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, and jays Daniel came in and got him to 2708 02:11:02,920 --> 02:11:04,600 Speaker 3: like a I think a field goal drive or something, 2709 02:11:04,600 --> 02:11:06,320 Speaker 3: and pat came right back in the game after halftime 2710 02:11:06,360 --> 02:11:07,280 Speaker 3: and they were totally fine. 2711 02:11:07,520 --> 02:11:10,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. This guy's invincible. This guy's incredible. 2712 02:11:10,640 --> 02:11:12,960 Speaker 3: The only way he was beating in the postseason once 2713 02:11:13,080 --> 02:11:14,880 Speaker 3: was because D four lined up all sides against the 2714 02:11:14,920 --> 02:11:16,160 Speaker 3: Patriots and that cost him that game. 2715 02:11:16,160 --> 02:11:16,960 Speaker 2: In credible And then. 2716 02:11:16,840 --> 02:11:18,720 Speaker 3: The second time because he was on his the nights 2717 02:11:18,800 --> 02:11:22,080 Speaker 3: in tenth string offensive tackles and literally had the entire 2718 02:11:22,120 --> 02:11:24,040 Speaker 3: Buccaneer defensive line in his lap as soon as he 2719 02:11:24,080 --> 02:11:26,480 Speaker 3: got the ball. Outside of that, this guy's been flawless 2720 02:11:26,480 --> 02:11:27,120 Speaker 3: in the postseason. 2721 02:11:27,400 --> 02:11:32,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, amazing, absolutely amazing. All for not all right company 2722 02:11:32,560 --> 02:11:34,320 Speaker 2: A lot from the tyreck dot com studios. I want 2723 02:11:34,320 --> 02:11:36,360 Speaker 2: to talk Olympics here before we dive into the best 2724 02:11:36,360 --> 02:11:40,680 Speaker 2: of the week now oops today. Earlier in the program, 2725 02:11:40,800 --> 02:11:44,000 Speaker 2: right off the top, we were debating the importance of this, 2726 02:11:44,160 --> 02:11:47,240 Speaker 2: How important is this for Team USA? One important move 2727 02:11:47,280 --> 02:11:49,960 Speaker 2: has already been made. Kevin Durant is entering the starting 2728 02:11:49,960 --> 02:11:53,000 Speaker 2: lineup for Team USA today and they get to take 2729 02:11:53,040 --> 02:11:56,400 Speaker 2: on Victor wimbin Yama, Rudy Gobert, who's really is he 2730 02:11:56,480 --> 02:11:58,480 Speaker 2: playing that much? Have no idea what happened with Rudy 2731 02:11:58,480 --> 02:12:00,880 Speaker 2: Gobert with the French team. Yeah, he's just not playing 2732 02:12:00,920 --> 02:12:03,160 Speaker 2: all that mung two minutes or something in the semi final, 2733 02:12:03,200 --> 02:12:05,600 Speaker 2: I believe. But I'm excited for this man. I think 2734 02:12:05,600 --> 02:12:08,400 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a fun. And also, whenever the men's 2735 02:12:08,440 --> 02:12:10,640 Speaker 2: basketball finals take place, and I feel like this is 2736 02:12:10,680 --> 02:12:12,480 Speaker 2: similar timing, I always feel like it's near the end 2737 02:12:12,520 --> 02:12:16,560 Speaker 2: of the Olympics. Correct, So what has been And I 2738 02:12:16,600 --> 02:12:18,400 Speaker 2: think you and I are in the same boat in this, Kevin, 2739 02:12:18,720 --> 02:12:21,240 Speaker 2: A two week obsession that was unexpected. I did not 2740 02:12:21,360 --> 02:12:24,000 Speaker 2: expect to be this in on the Olympics as we 2741 02:12:24,000 --> 02:12:26,440 Speaker 2: were leading up to it. The timing has worked great 2742 02:12:26,440 --> 02:12:30,960 Speaker 2: for my schedule. Yeah, the primetime show is if I 2743 02:12:31,040 --> 02:12:36,120 Speaker 2: missed anything, I've got that it's Snoop, snoopop. Yeah, and 2744 02:12:36,200 --> 02:12:38,600 Speaker 2: Snoop takes me through the day and I'm like, I 2745 02:12:38,680 --> 02:12:40,560 Speaker 2: understand it. It makes a lot of sense to me 2746 02:12:40,640 --> 02:12:42,920 Speaker 2: right now. I didn't expect to be this in, so 2747 02:12:42,960 --> 02:12:45,400 Speaker 2: I'm not like celebrating to get the Olympics off my TV. 2748 02:12:46,080 --> 02:12:48,320 Speaker 2: But it's also kind of one of those moments where 2749 02:12:48,320 --> 02:12:50,640 Speaker 2: you look back and you say, am I in on this? 2750 02:12:51,000 --> 02:12:53,960 Speaker 2: Was I in on this? Has this been memorable? Has 2751 02:12:53,960 --> 02:12:56,360 Speaker 2: this been amazing? Has it just been a void filler? 2752 02:12:56,400 --> 02:12:59,800 Speaker 2: Because I tend to think the prior not the ladder. 2753 02:12:59,800 --> 02:13:03,320 Speaker 2: I feel like there's been some just incredible fun Yeah, 2754 02:13:03,320 --> 02:13:06,400 Speaker 2: and some incredible moments. I've been all in much more 2755 02:13:06,440 --> 02:13:08,760 Speaker 2: than I ever could have imagined. And I was dumping 2756 02:13:08,800 --> 02:13:11,320 Speaker 2: all over it leading up to the Olympics. I was wrong, 2757 02:13:11,560 --> 02:13:12,480 Speaker 2: as was I. 2758 02:13:12,600 --> 02:13:14,400 Speaker 3: We are on our local show where we're talking about 2759 02:13:14,400 --> 02:13:15,360 Speaker 3: has it lost its luster? 2760 02:13:15,520 --> 02:13:17,200 Speaker 2: Does anybody really care anymore? 2761 02:13:18,400 --> 02:13:21,320 Speaker 3: And from day one, after the opening ceremony, when the 2762 02:13:21,360 --> 02:13:22,960 Speaker 3: first event started, I've been locked in. 2763 02:13:23,280 --> 02:13:26,800 Speaker 2: I ordered peacock, I watched the gold zone. 2764 02:13:26,840 --> 02:13:28,720 Speaker 3: Like you mentioned the fact that you can pick and 2765 02:13:28,800 --> 02:13:31,640 Speaker 3: choose every single individual event, no matter what event that's 2766 02:13:31,680 --> 02:13:33,360 Speaker 3: going on, that you want to be able to watch. 2767 02:13:33,520 --> 02:13:35,680 Speaker 3: I'm watching kayaking and a bunch of other stuff that 2768 02:13:35,720 --> 02:13:38,400 Speaker 3: I never thought i'd watched in a trillion years, the pentathlon, 2769 02:13:38,840 --> 02:13:42,040 Speaker 3: watching fencing the other day, and I've been riveted by it. 2770 02:13:42,080 --> 02:13:45,160 Speaker 3: I'm in one thousand percent and now granted now it 2771 02:13:45,160 --> 02:13:49,040 Speaker 3: can you know, basically cover up a couple of different 2772 02:13:49,040 --> 02:13:51,960 Speaker 3: fronts or satisfy two fronts? Is it a time filler 2773 02:13:52,000 --> 02:13:53,720 Speaker 3: because we're kind of in the dog days of summer 2774 02:13:53,760 --> 02:13:56,320 Speaker 3: to with a certain degree, yes, But within that I'm 2775 02:13:56,360 --> 02:13:57,720 Speaker 3: still thoroughly enjoying it. 2776 02:13:59,280 --> 02:14:02,480 Speaker 2: I'm gonna miss it the same, but I will say 2777 02:14:03,480 --> 02:14:06,440 Speaker 2: I hope this sparks something in somebody that I don't 2778 02:14:06,440 --> 02:14:09,480 Speaker 2: know wants to invest in handball, or maybe some young 2779 02:14:09,520 --> 02:14:12,800 Speaker 2: athletes says I need to be handball. But wait, that 2780 02:14:12,920 --> 02:14:15,480 Speaker 2: was a terrible out of context. I want to play handball. 2781 02:14:15,600 --> 02:14:18,560 Speaker 2: I got you. I don't want to be hand Hey, 2782 02:14:18,600 --> 02:14:20,760 Speaker 2: it's four hour show. Hang with me exactly. 2783 02:14:21,440 --> 02:14:24,600 Speaker 3: But I look if they have handball, like a recreational 2784 02:14:24,600 --> 02:14:28,440 Speaker 3: handball league. Yeah, now handball, because handball for me growing up. 2785 02:14:28,440 --> 02:14:29,720 Speaker 3: I don't know about you, Chris was like, there was 2786 02:14:29,720 --> 02:14:31,720 Speaker 3: a ball, there was a wall, you bounced it off 2787 02:14:31,720 --> 02:14:35,400 Speaker 3: and bounced handball. That was handball. This looks like some 2788 02:14:35,440 --> 02:14:37,160 Speaker 3: sort of something out of a Will Farrow movie. But 2789 02:14:37,240 --> 02:14:39,520 Speaker 3: I'm all for it. I'm a thousand percent in. 2790 02:14:39,960 --> 02:14:42,920 Speaker 2: You have to keep in mind we've got football that's 2791 02:14:42,960 --> 02:14:46,280 Speaker 2: right in the next Olympics. Now it's not now tackle football, 2792 02:14:46,320 --> 02:14:48,480 Speaker 2: it's flag football. Anthony Gargan, I will tell you it's 2793 02:14:48,480 --> 02:14:50,240 Speaker 2: not real football. That's what he said last week. Oh 2794 02:14:50,240 --> 02:14:51,960 Speaker 2: so is that what he can? I not say that? 2795 02:14:52,040 --> 02:14:52,720 Speaker 2: Is that? No? 2796 02:14:52,720 --> 02:14:54,800 Speaker 3: No, no, no, please, you can say I defended it, 2797 02:14:54,840 --> 02:14:56,360 Speaker 3: and I was like, it's different. It's like you can. 2798 02:14:56,640 --> 02:14:58,640 Speaker 3: First of all, you can't have real football in the Olympics. 2799 02:14:58,680 --> 02:15:01,000 Speaker 3: It's only two weeks long, not enough time for teams 2800 02:15:01,040 --> 02:15:02,600 Speaker 3: to actually rest and play their next game. 2801 02:15:02,880 --> 02:15:03,840 Speaker 2: So if you're gonna do it. 2802 02:15:04,080 --> 02:15:06,080 Speaker 3: You can say it's glorified passing the league, sure, but 2803 02:15:06,080 --> 02:15:08,600 Speaker 3: there's still strategy involved. There's routes that you have to run, 2804 02:15:08,640 --> 02:15:11,840 Speaker 3: there's defenses that you play. Now, there's still strategy around it. 2805 02:15:12,120 --> 02:15:15,680 Speaker 3: So I have I'm raising my hand like you can 2806 02:15:15,720 --> 02:15:19,320 Speaker 3: see me. I have a dumb question knowing that every 2807 02:15:19,360 --> 02:15:22,720 Speaker 3: commercial I feel like I see is Jalen Hurts throwing 2808 02:15:22,880 --> 02:15:26,160 Speaker 3: a pass to the top of the coliseum and saying, 2809 02:15:26,160 --> 02:15:27,120 Speaker 3: what we got next? 2810 02:15:28,040 --> 02:15:31,120 Speaker 2: Are we sending our boys to LA or are we 2811 02:15:31,160 --> 02:15:35,920 Speaker 2: sitting the NFL guys in this seven on seven? I 2812 02:15:35,960 --> 02:15:38,040 Speaker 2: don't know if is promoting it. 2813 02:15:38,400 --> 02:15:40,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if we'd have current players do it, 2814 02:15:40,920 --> 02:15:42,600 Speaker 3: but I'll recently retire guys. 2815 02:15:42,640 --> 02:15:45,960 Speaker 2: I could see it, but I could see it. I 2816 02:15:45,960 --> 02:15:46,320 Speaker 2: don't know. 2817 02:15:46,760 --> 02:15:49,440 Speaker 3: I would love to see current players do I would 2818 02:15:49,440 --> 02:15:51,080 Speaker 3: I would absolutely love to see some of our best 2819 02:15:51,080 --> 02:15:54,080 Speaker 3: players participate, to see the Josh Allens and the Justin 2820 02:15:54,120 --> 02:15:56,160 Speaker 3: Jefferson's especially like the best of the best. 2821 02:15:56,880 --> 02:15:58,320 Speaker 2: But I don't see even if. 2822 02:15:58,200 --> 02:16:00,600 Speaker 3: It's quote unquote just flag football, can you imagine a 2823 02:16:00,640 --> 02:16:03,920 Speaker 3: guy running route, you know, plants turns and tears an 2824 02:16:03,960 --> 02:16:04,880 Speaker 3: ACL or something. 2825 02:16:05,040 --> 02:16:08,760 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, playing flag football for the Olympics. So 2826 02:16:08,960 --> 02:16:12,480 Speaker 2: let me just give you future plank. I could imagine 2827 02:16:12,680 --> 02:16:15,360 Speaker 2: the Raiders have this great young quarterback that has come along. 2828 02:16:15,960 --> 02:16:17,680 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think, trying to think of a good 2829 02:16:17,720 --> 02:16:20,600 Speaker 2: young quarter I just go Shador Sanders. Sure not. And 2830 02:16:20,800 --> 02:16:22,440 Speaker 2: he's going to be on Team USA and he's going 2831 02:16:22,480 --> 02:16:24,720 Speaker 2: to be the quarterback and he tears his acl before 2832 02:16:24,720 --> 02:16:28,000 Speaker 2: the season starts. That's a good point. Yeah, I would 2833 02:16:28,040 --> 02:16:30,720 Speaker 2: not care about America. I wouldn't care about America at 2834 02:16:30,720 --> 02:16:33,959 Speaker 2: that point, exactly, like, oh my gosh, my guy's down. 2835 02:16:34,040 --> 02:16:38,119 Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. But I'm intrigued by the girls, 2836 02:16:38,200 --> 02:16:39,400 Speaker 2: ladies women's singles. 2837 02:16:39,560 --> 02:16:42,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, the ladies have an opportunity to play football too. 2838 02:16:42,959 --> 02:16:45,160 Speaker 3: Like I'm all for it, and I think it will 2839 02:16:45,200 --> 02:16:47,360 Speaker 3: be phenomenal if we can find a way to get there. 2840 02:16:47,400 --> 02:16:48,960 Speaker 3: Is I know there's been a giant push from the 2841 02:16:49,080 --> 02:16:52,600 Speaker 3: NFL and there's a National flab Flag Football Association and 2842 02:16:52,600 --> 02:16:55,240 Speaker 3: they've gotten some former players really get behind it. 2843 02:16:55,240 --> 02:16:56,360 Speaker 2: It will not surprise me at all. 2844 02:16:56,400 --> 02:16:58,480 Speaker 3: I don't know if we love actual football players skip 2845 02:16:58,560 --> 02:17:01,080 Speaker 3: training camp, which is essentially what you'd be doing to 2846 02:17:01,080 --> 02:17:05,039 Speaker 3: be able to participate but recently retire players, maybe some 2847 02:17:05,120 --> 02:17:08,040 Speaker 3: young players, maybe even high school players, can play with 2848 02:17:08,320 --> 02:17:10,520 Speaker 3: former NFL veterans, like on the same team. How cool 2849 02:17:10,520 --> 02:17:12,560 Speaker 3: would that be if you were like a seventeen eighteen 2850 02:17:12,600 --> 02:17:15,360 Speaker 3: year old kid. I think that'd be amazing. So I'm 2851 02:17:15,440 --> 02:17:17,760 Speaker 3: in full support of flag football in twenty twenty eight. 2852 02:17:17,800 --> 02:17:22,080 Speaker 2: All Tom Brady? Why not Tom? Yeah? Why not Tom? 2853 02:17:22,320 --> 02:17:24,359 Speaker 2: Because Tom Brady is going to be the starting quarterback 2854 02:17:24,400 --> 02:17:27,800 Speaker 2: for the Raiders by week six. He secretly has the playbook. 2855 02:17:28,040 --> 02:17:29,680 Speaker 2: He's learning it as we speak. 2856 02:17:30,240 --> 02:17:33,360 Speaker 3: So that's why he hasn't bought that ownership state officially yet. 2857 02:17:33,440 --> 02:17:35,240 Speaker 3: Right right, Okay, that's. 2858 02:17:35,080 --> 02:17:38,200 Speaker 2: My number one conspiracy theory. So Ian Roddy, stop, We're 2859 02:17:38,200 --> 02:17:40,960 Speaker 2: not sending Raiders starting quarterback Tom Brady to the Olympics. 2860 02:17:41,000 --> 02:17:43,120 Speaker 2: But the point is, right, right, could you imagine that 2861 02:17:43,320 --> 02:17:46,600 Speaker 2: Brady in the Olympics. I'll be amazing, trust me, NBC 2862 02:17:46,680 --> 02:17:48,800 Speaker 2: what love the United States? Whoever? They all love it. 2863 02:17:48,879 --> 02:17:49,720 Speaker 2: They'd eat that alive. 2864 02:17:49,959 --> 02:17:54,959 Speaker 6: Send him, Randy Moss, Jerry Rice, just some some retired 2865 02:17:55,000 --> 02:17:56,520 Speaker 6: players and see how they match up. 2866 02:17:56,560 --> 02:17:58,680 Speaker 3: Again, Jerry Rice is still going to break people's ankles. 2867 02:17:58,680 --> 02:17:59,600 Speaker 3: At the age of fifty. 2868 02:18:01,400 --> 02:18:04,720 Speaker 2: It was funny. They have someone that posted that video 2869 02:18:05,680 --> 02:18:08,920 Speaker 2: where Marino and Jerry Rice and Randy Moss were all 2870 02:18:08,920 --> 02:18:10,760 Speaker 2: putting on their uniforms and it was kind of supposed 2871 02:18:10,760 --> 02:18:13,080 Speaker 2: to be a joke because they're so old. And when 2872 02:18:13,080 --> 02:18:15,680 Speaker 2: I saw a Moss walk bay, I was like, take 2873 02:18:15,760 --> 02:18:18,640 Speaker 2: him on. My team's stop right right. I'll take my 2874 02:18:18,800 --> 02:18:22,039 Speaker 2: chances with eighty four out there, all right, So Olympic 2875 02:18:22,120 --> 02:18:27,240 Speaker 2: fun Today, you got the men's basketball finals US versus France, 2876 02:18:27,520 --> 02:18:32,359 Speaker 2: three thirty Eastern time, correct, three thirty Eastern time. Women's 2877 02:18:32,840 --> 02:18:35,919 Speaker 2: all they do is win, they'll play for the title tomorrow. 2878 02:18:35,959 --> 02:18:37,680 Speaker 2: We got a lot going on this morning. See, we 2879 02:18:37,720 --> 02:18:41,520 Speaker 2: got volleyball. We've got the gold medal match. France is 2880 02:18:41,600 --> 02:18:43,720 Speaker 2: up on Poland one set to none, and this second 2881 02:18:43,720 --> 02:18:47,160 Speaker 2: set has been wild. I've got the modern Pentathlon going 2882 02:18:47,200 --> 02:18:48,720 Speaker 2: on on my gold zone, but I don't know how 2883 02:18:48,720 --> 02:18:50,879 Speaker 2: to describe it at all. Well, right now, I believe 2884 02:18:50,920 --> 02:18:53,680 Speaker 2: they're doing the fencing portion. I belove. 2885 02:18:53,920 --> 02:18:58,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's fencing in the pentathlon. Yeah, there's fencing. There's 2886 02:18:58,600 --> 02:19:01,600 Speaker 3: an obstacle course of some sorts. There's a bunch of 2887 02:19:01,680 --> 02:19:04,920 Speaker 3: different yets. I looked it up because I wasn't I 2888 02:19:04,959 --> 02:19:06,560 Speaker 3: saw it. I was like, first of all, the fencing 2889 02:19:06,640 --> 02:19:09,680 Speaker 3: there was a fencing arena. Then this is done outdoors, 2890 02:19:10,120 --> 02:19:11,800 Speaker 3: so I was like, why are there two different types 2891 02:19:11,840 --> 02:19:13,680 Speaker 3: of fencing? And then I found out that fencing is 2892 02:19:13,720 --> 02:19:15,440 Speaker 3: actually a leg of the Pentathlon. 2893 02:19:16,040 --> 02:19:20,520 Speaker 2: Huh. Yeah. Can I tell you if if my Google 2894 02:19:20,600 --> 02:19:24,480 Speaker 2: searches could be made public, I wouldn't be ashamed of them, 2895 02:19:24,720 --> 02:19:27,840 Speaker 2: but I'd be very embarrassed. Like, for instance, because I 2896 02:19:27,840 --> 02:19:30,920 Speaker 2: was pulling this up, why is there water in steeplechase? 2897 02:19:30,959 --> 02:19:32,360 Speaker 2: Because I was trying to figure out why is there 2898 02:19:32,360 --> 02:19:34,000 Speaker 2: a puddle in the middle of a track? What's going 2899 02:19:34,040 --> 02:19:35,520 Speaker 2: on here? What does this prove? 2900 02:19:35,640 --> 02:19:39,720 Speaker 3: Right, it's odd, it's oh so here's the modern Pentathlon. 2901 02:19:39,720 --> 02:19:41,800 Speaker 2: Here's what we have.

Kevin Figures is always here. He'll have 2925 02:20:57,400 --> 02:20:59,320 Speaker 2: a full update coming up at the bottom of this hour. 2926 02:21:00,080 --> 02:21:03,080 Speaker 2: Ian and Mark running the show and kind of wanted 2927 02:21:03,120 --> 02:21:04,720 Speaker 2: to dive into a couple of stories from the week 2928 02:21:04,720 --> 02:21:07,120 Speaker 2: that was give him a little bit more I don't know, 2929 02:21:07,280 --> 02:21:08,840 Speaker 2: give him a little bit more room to roam, play 2930 02:21:08,840 --> 02:21:10,640 Speaker 2: a little bit more pepper with them. One of those 2931 02:21:10,800 --> 02:21:15,879 Speaker 2: is the Michigan saga. And aside from the story that 2932 02:21:15,959 --> 02:21:19,439 Speaker 2: Michigan is going to have Jim Harbaugh as an honorary 2933 02:21:19,480 --> 02:21:21,880 Speaker 2: captain in their in their opening game of the season, 2934 02:21:21,879 --> 02:21:27,720 Speaker 2: which is amazing. He's been given a show cause, basically 2935 02:21:27,840 --> 02:21:32,160 Speaker 2: suspended a year from coaching in college football, and now 2936 02:21:32,160 --> 02:21:34,520 Speaker 2: as he's preparing for his first year with the Chargers, 2937 02:21:34,959 --> 02:21:39,359 Speaker 2: he's having to answer questions about not only this penalty, 2938 02:21:39,920 --> 02:21:43,560 Speaker 2: but still to come. We don't know what's all involved 2939 02:21:43,560 --> 02:21:46,520 Speaker 2: in the sign stealing report, so real quick from the 2940 02:21:46,560 --> 02:21:49,640 Speaker 2: week that was Jim Harbaugh was asked earlier in the 2941 02:21:49,680 --> 02:21:52,360 Speaker 2: week about the Connor Stallions. Now because remember there was 2942 02:21:52,400 --> 02:21:57,400 Speaker 2: a story that that Harbaugh knew and that there was 2943 02:21:57,440 --> 02:22:00,680 Speaker 2: more information about Stallions and that there what do we 2944 02:22:00,760 --> 02:22:04,000 Speaker 2: see the draft of the notice of allegations, the draft 2945 02:22:04,040 --> 02:22:06,000 Speaker 2: that was going to be sent out. Here's what Jim 2946 02:22:06,040 --> 02:22:08,600 Speaker 2: Harbaugh said when that story first came out. 2947 02:22:08,879 --> 02:22:13,240 Speaker 13: Never lie, never cheat, never steal. I was raised with 2948 02:22:13,360 --> 02:22:16,400 Speaker 13: that lesson. I have raised my family on that lesson. 2949 02:22:16,560 --> 02:22:19,800 Speaker 13: I have preached that lesson to the teams that I've coached. 2950 02:22:20,040 --> 02:22:24,120 Speaker 13: No one's perfect. If you stumble, you apologize, and you 2951 02:22:24,160 --> 02:22:27,760 Speaker 13: make it right. Today, I do not apologize I did 2952 02:22:27,760 --> 02:22:32,160 Speaker 13: not participate, was not aware nor complicit in those set allegations. 2953 02:22:32,280 --> 02:22:34,320 Speaker 2: So for me, it's back to work. 2954 02:22:34,160 --> 02:22:36,480 Speaker 13: And attacking with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind. 2955 02:22:36,760 --> 02:22:38,840 Speaker 2: So that was earlier in the weekend. And remember, let's 2956 02:22:38,879 --> 02:22:42,000 Speaker 2: make sure we don't ghostbuster this. Do not cross the streams. 2957 02:22:42,120 --> 02:22:47,080 Speaker 2: Don't cross the streams ray, because there's a separate story 2958 02:22:48,480 --> 02:22:54,360 Speaker 2: from the Connor Stallion story, the sign stealing saga, the 2959 02:22:54,400 --> 02:22:57,840 Speaker 2: issue that Jim Harball was talking about. There. Then there 2960 02:22:58,000 --> 02:23:02,039 Speaker 2: was the oh yeah, he is still are getting deemed 2961 02:23:02,080 --> 02:23:06,160 Speaker 2: for Burgergate. Whenever you allegedly broke well, I guess I don't. 2962 02:23:06,200 --> 02:23:10,440 Speaker 2: Can we say allegedly anymore? Kevin, No, you broke it? Yeah, 2963 02:23:10,600 --> 02:23:14,200 Speaker 2: well you broke it and see a recruiting rules during COVID, right, 2964 02:23:14,240 --> 02:23:18,199 Speaker 2: so you still add that lingering and looming and boom, right, 2965 02:23:18,280 --> 02:23:21,280 Speaker 2: he gets hit with the show costs because of that. 2966 02:23:21,840 --> 02:23:25,680 Speaker 2: Here's what Harbaugh said. Then later, I guess this was yesterday, 2967 02:23:25,720 --> 02:23:28,800 Speaker 2: right where after practice he was asked about the show 2968 02:23:28,840 --> 02:23:31,520 Speaker 2: cost So you heard the reaction to the draft of 2969 02:23:31,560 --> 02:23:34,640 Speaker 2: the report, which we haven't seen fully yet for the 2970 02:23:34,680 --> 02:23:38,800 Speaker 2: penalties for the signs stealing tobacle. Now we officially know 2971 02:23:38,920 --> 02:23:43,400 Speaker 2: the punishment for the Burger, for the illegal recruiting during 2972 02:23:43,400 --> 02:23:45,440 Speaker 2: a time when you weren't supposed to the COVID era. 2973 02:23:45,680 --> 02:23:47,920 Speaker 2: Here's what Jim Harbach said when he was asked about that. 2974 02:23:49,560 --> 02:23:56,680 Speaker 13: I'm the stopping the engagement there with commenting. But so 2975 02:23:57,360 --> 02:24:02,879 Speaker 13: my only continued hope is that one day college athletics 2976 02:24:04,160 --> 02:24:07,360 Speaker 13: will be about what's best for the young men and 2977 02:24:07,400 --> 02:24:11,880 Speaker 13: the young women who participate in them. That's really all 2978 02:24:11,879 --> 02:24:12,920 Speaker 13: I got to say about it. 2979 02:24:14,480 --> 02:24:16,000 Speaker 2: That, k Fig, what did you take away from that? 2980 02:24:17,080 --> 02:24:20,200 Speaker 3: Well, since I'll go back to the Ghostbuster's reference, I 2981 02:24:20,200 --> 02:24:22,879 Speaker 3: am going to cross the streams as they trying to 2982 02:24:22,879 --> 02:24:25,240 Speaker 3: make sure we keep our story separate, but it's really 2983 02:24:25,280 --> 02:24:27,520 Speaker 3: really are in order to kill Zuel, they had to 2984 02:24:27,560 --> 02:24:29,440 Speaker 3: cross the streams at the end. So I feel like 2985 02:24:29,440 --> 02:24:32,600 Speaker 3: I need to do this because so on Monday he 2986 02:24:32,640 --> 02:24:34,520 Speaker 3: comes out and says, I would never lie, cheat sealed. 2987 02:24:34,520 --> 02:24:35,520 Speaker 2: You played the SoundBite. 2988 02:24:35,760 --> 02:24:38,240 Speaker 3: So two days later it comes out and we basically 2989 02:24:38,280 --> 02:24:40,720 Speaker 3: know for a fact he lied or and obstructed the 2990 02:24:40,720 --> 02:24:43,480 Speaker 3: investigation or at least made things very difficult for the 2991 02:24:43,560 --> 02:24:46,320 Speaker 3: NCUBA when he came to the COVID violation. Whether you 2992 02:24:46,360 --> 02:24:49,280 Speaker 3: think it's a serious violation or not it is. 2993 02:24:49,400 --> 02:24:50,720 Speaker 2: I mean he did it. He did it one way 2994 02:24:50,800 --> 02:24:51,160 Speaker 2: or the other. 2995 02:24:51,200 --> 02:24:52,640 Speaker 3: I would have had more respect for him if he 2996 02:24:52,640 --> 02:24:55,080 Speaker 3: would have come out and said the NCUBLEA is totally ridiculous. 2997 02:24:55,280 --> 02:24:57,439 Speaker 3: It's stupid that I couldn't buy this kid a cheeseburger 2998 02:24:57,560 --> 02:25:01,040 Speaker 3: or host recruiting visits their whole operation and is totally archaic. 2999 02:25:01,400 --> 02:25:03,879 Speaker 3: And I believe most people agree with me. Had he 3000 02:25:03,920 --> 02:25:05,400 Speaker 3: said that, I think he would have guarded a lot 3001 02:25:05,400 --> 02:25:07,120 Speaker 3: more respect. And most people say, you know what, he 3002 02:25:07,160 --> 02:25:10,320 Speaker 3: broke a rule, but he's kind of right. The problem 3003 02:25:10,360 --> 02:25:12,160 Speaker 3: is he now looks bad because he says I would 3004 02:25:12,160 --> 02:25:14,680 Speaker 3: never lie cheater Steel when he clearly lied at least 3005 02:25:14,680 --> 02:25:18,440 Speaker 3: in the cheeseburger situation, which kind of helped him. Has 3006 02:25:18,480 --> 02:25:20,000 Speaker 3: him lose a little bit of the benefit of the 3007 02:25:20,040 --> 02:25:22,560 Speaker 3: doubt when it comes to the Stallion situation. So from 3008 02:25:22,560 --> 02:25:25,680 Speaker 3: that standpoint, I do think these streams are crossed and 3009 02:25:25,720 --> 02:25:27,920 Speaker 3: it's a little correlated there. I think it's hard for 3010 02:25:27,959 --> 02:25:31,680 Speaker 3: people to believe that that he had zero People were 3011 02:25:31,720 --> 02:25:33,480 Speaker 3: gonna think this anyway by the way, that he had 3012 02:25:33,560 --> 02:25:35,920 Speaker 3: zero knowledge of what happened, but even more so after 3013 02:25:35,959 --> 02:25:38,640 Speaker 3: the COVID situation and how he handled that. There's even 3014 02:25:38,720 --> 02:25:40,440 Speaker 3: less confidence to think that he had little to do 3015 02:25:40,480 --> 02:25:42,320 Speaker 3: with the conter stallions, or at the very least that 3016 02:25:42,360 --> 02:25:43,360 Speaker 3: he didn't know about it. 3017 02:25:43,640 --> 02:25:45,840 Speaker 2: And again the counter stallion saga that is the sign 3018 02:25:45,920 --> 02:25:50,280 Speaker 2: stealing correct situation. Now I've heard that goes deep. You know, 3019 02:25:50,320 --> 02:25:55,600 Speaker 2: there's there's allegations of hacking into mainframes. There's a lot 3020 02:25:55,800 --> 02:25:59,280 Speaker 2: in some of the rumors around that report. But I'll 3021 02:25:59,280 --> 02:26:01,640 Speaker 2: wait until it be comes I guess you could say 3022 02:26:01,640 --> 02:26:05,080 Speaker 2: public and officialized. But I will say Michigan fans would 3023 02:26:05,120 --> 02:26:09,080 Speaker 2: point out, well, Harbaugh never lied. He just was never 3024 02:26:09,280 --> 02:26:12,000 Speaker 2: upfront or not upfront. Excuse me, he just never answered it. 3025 02:26:12,240 --> 02:26:16,720 Speaker 2: That's what they would say in the defense of Jim Harble. 3026 02:26:16,760 --> 02:26:18,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if fits. I don't know if it's 3027 02:26:18,720 --> 02:26:21,520 Speaker 2: worthy of it. But at least this week we found 3028 02:26:21,560 --> 02:26:23,800 Speaker 2: out that the NCAA is trying to attempt to still 3029 02:26:23,840 --> 02:26:27,200 Speaker 2: be a disciplinary arm for college sports. Didn't know if 3030 02:26:27,200 --> 02:26:28,879 Speaker 2: that was going to be the case. It looks like 3031 02:26:28,879 --> 02:26:30,879 Speaker 2: they're going to try to be. Now when we come back, 3032 02:26:30,920 --> 02:26:34,680 Speaker 2: I got more audio. Chris Carter would would slaps get 3033 02:26:34,720 --> 02:26:37,680 Speaker 2: Bayless or I knock him out. We'll get to that 3034 02:26:38,200 --> 02:26:42,400 Speaker 2: and quarterback controversies battles all across the NFL.

Mister Harry James Taylor checked in 3095 02:29:46,680 --> 02:29:50,440 Speaker 2: a superstar around these here parts k fig twenty days 3096 02:29:50,560 --> 02:29:54,640 Speaker 2: left Plankard to get ready for Oklahoma to shock the SEC. 3097 02:29:55,040 --> 02:30:00,680 Speaker 2: Hope you're right, Hope you're right. I'm again. I'm cautiously 3098 02:30:00,720 --> 02:30:03,560 Speaker 2: optimistic about my teams right now. How about this one 3099 02:30:03,600 --> 02:30:07,000 Speaker 2: for you, Harry James Taylor. I am more optimistic about 3100 02:30:07,040 --> 02:30:10,560 Speaker 2: the Sooners chances of winning the SEC than I am 3101 02:30:10,680 --> 02:30:15,400 Speaker 2: of the Raiders' chances of winning the West. Wow. So 3102 02:30:15,480 --> 02:30:17,760 Speaker 2: I gotta I gotta find a good balance there because 3103 02:30:17,800 --> 02:30:20,320 Speaker 2: I want them both to be I want equal Hope 3104 02:30:20,560 --> 02:30:23,400 Speaker 2: is a hell of a drug. I want equal parts hope. Kevin, 3105 02:30:23,720 --> 02:30:26,080 Speaker 2: what equal parts hope? And I have it on one 3106 02:30:26,120 --> 02:30:28,320 Speaker 2: side and I don't know if it's well founded, and 3107 02:30:28,400 --> 02:30:30,160 Speaker 2: I don't have it on the other though I really 3108 02:30:30,240 --> 02:30:30,960 Speaker 2: want well. 3109 02:30:30,959 --> 02:30:32,400 Speaker 3: Okay, So I want to talk about the one side 3110 02:30:32,440 --> 02:30:34,080 Speaker 3: because we talked about the Raiders a little bit. But 3111 02:30:34,080 --> 02:30:36,520 Speaker 3: when it comes to your Sooners tough schedule in the 3112 02:30:36,560 --> 02:30:39,199 Speaker 3: SEC for their first year down there, what's the what's 3113 02:30:39,240 --> 02:30:41,200 Speaker 3: your vibe and what's the vibe out there? With them 3114 02:30:41,360 --> 02:30:43,240 Speaker 3: transitioning into the SEC this year. 3115 02:30:43,480 --> 02:30:45,200 Speaker 2: Doing the SEC what they did in the Big twelve, 3116 02:30:45,320 --> 02:30:47,480 Speaker 2: coming in to dominate. I mean, that's that's my mindset 3117 02:30:47,480 --> 02:30:50,520 Speaker 2: that Texas has. That's the mindset that Oklahoma has. It's like, hey, 3118 02:30:50,520 --> 02:30:55,040 Speaker 2: we're coming. What's the line from Tombstone? Tell them why 3119 02:30:55,040 --> 02:30:57,640 Speaker 2: it hurt's coming? And hell's kinds coming with me? Yeah, 3120 02:30:57,879 --> 02:31:00,240 Speaker 2: But I think in all honesty, there's the realization that 3121 02:31:00,680 --> 02:31:03,240 Speaker 2: it's year three. This is where most programs take a 3122 02:31:03,280 --> 02:31:05,400 Speaker 2: major stop. Look at Brian Kelly's ear threes. He's the 3123 02:31:05,520 --> 02:31:10,119 Speaker 2: LSU head coach. His year three's right, It's just sometimes 3124 02:31:10,120 --> 02:31:12,680 Speaker 2: it can be earlier. Bob Stoops in year two won 3125 02:31:12,680 --> 02:31:15,240 Speaker 2: a national championship and then sustain it in year three, 3126 02:31:15,280 --> 02:31:16,600 Speaker 2: but he didn't win the title but was on the 3127 02:31:16,600 --> 02:31:20,640 Speaker 2: CUSPOAD one. So I just I don't know how to 3128 02:31:20,680 --> 02:31:25,360 Speaker 2: feel about this schedule. It's just unlike anything I've ever seen. 3129 02:31:25,680 --> 02:31:28,400 Speaker 2: I'm excited about. It scares the hell out of me 3130 02:31:28,680 --> 02:31:32,760 Speaker 2: as a fan, but I think it's going to be 3131 02:31:32,760 --> 02:31:36,520 Speaker 2: fascinating to see how a two or three loss SEC 3132 02:31:36,600 --> 02:31:39,360 Speaker 2: team is going to be viewed against a one loss 3133 02:31:39,680 --> 02:31:43,440 Speaker 2: Big twelve maybe ACC team whenever we're fighting and talking 3134 02:31:43,480 --> 02:31:46,080 Speaker 2: about who gets into the playoffs, right, I think that 3135 02:31:46,760 --> 02:31:49,400 Speaker 2: twelve thirteen four to well, I guess what you want 3136 02:31:49,440 --> 02:31:52,000 Speaker 2: like eleven twelve, thirteen, fourteen fifteen. I think those are 3137 02:31:52,040 --> 02:31:55,600 Speaker 2: going to be fascinating discussions. And my point of bringing 3138 02:31:55,640 --> 02:31:58,160 Speaker 2: it up is, I think there could be a two 3139 02:31:58,200 --> 02:32:00,360 Speaker 2: to three loss playoff team out of the SEC or the. 3140 02:32:00,360 --> 02:32:03,280 Speaker 3: Big ten easily without a doubt, that would easily be 3141 02:32:03,280 --> 02:32:05,400 Speaker 3: able to jump over, or say a two loss team 3142 02:32:05,720 --> 02:32:07,840 Speaker 3: or maybe even a one loss team from an ACC 3143 02:32:08,120 --> 02:32:10,720 Speaker 3: or a Big twelve situation. I can see that happening. Yeah, 3144 02:32:10,760 --> 02:32:12,520 Speaker 3: and then what muddy's the water a little bit? Although 3145 02:32:12,640 --> 02:32:14,800 Speaker 3: I'm generally not a fan of this, but I like 3146 02:32:14,840 --> 02:32:16,400 Speaker 3: the fact that the little guy gets a shot. 3147 02:32:16,680 --> 02:32:18,920 Speaker 2: Is that a group of five champion has to make 3148 02:32:18,959 --> 02:32:23,360 Speaker 2: the cut. Sure other stories that I wanted to hit here, 3149 02:32:24,040 --> 02:32:26,520 Speaker 2: So this was I didn't realize this. This was a 3150 02:32:26,640 --> 02:32:31,840 Speaker 2: production of Ian Roddy Enterprises. He found this Chris Carter 3151 02:32:32,000 --> 02:32:33,840 Speaker 2: cut from this past week, and I got to tell 3152 02:32:33,879 --> 02:32:39,040 Speaker 2: you something. With Skip Bayless stepping away, I gas from media. 3153 02:32:39,640 --> 02:32:43,160 Speaker 2: Chris for now. Chris Carter shared a story about a 3154 02:32:43,160 --> 02:32:45,920 Speaker 2: time whenever he and Skip Bayless were working together. 3155 02:32:46,120 --> 02:32:48,199 Speaker 15: I'm on there doing the show. I do the show 3156 02:32:48,240 --> 02:32:50,440 Speaker 15: and everything, and then all of a sudden, this is 3157 02:32:50,480 --> 02:32:50,920 Speaker 15: when the. 3158 02:32:50,840 --> 02:32:52,760 Speaker 14: T Bow phenomenon was going on. 3159 02:32:53,000 --> 02:32:56,000 Speaker 15: So I come on there on a Monday, and you know, 3160 02:32:56,080 --> 02:32:58,840 Speaker 15: we're trading barbs and everything. We go back and forth, 3161 02:32:58,879 --> 02:33:00,840 Speaker 15: back and forth, back and forth, and then I just 3162 02:33:01,440 --> 02:33:04,640 Speaker 15: level said it was like, listen, if throwing the football 3163 02:33:05,080 --> 02:33:09,560 Speaker 15: is important in the NFL, Tim Tebow will never. 3164 02:33:09,360 --> 02:33:11,400 Speaker 14: Be a starting quarterback in the NFL. 3165 02:33:11,680 --> 02:33:15,959 Speaker 15: So he got defensive, and then he came back and said, well, 3166 02:33:16,000 --> 02:33:18,560 Speaker 15: that's why you didn't win a super Bowl, which got 3167 02:33:18,800 --> 02:33:20,000 Speaker 15: nothing to do with nothing. 3168 02:33:20,080 --> 02:33:23,039 Speaker 14: We went to commercial break. I took my earpiece out. 3169 02:33:23,120 --> 02:33:26,240 Speaker 15: And I told him I'll never be on your show again, 3170 02:33:26,920 --> 02:33:29,680 Speaker 15: and if you ever say anything like that to me again, 3171 02:33:30,000 --> 02:33:31,480 Speaker 15: I'll punch you right in the face. 3172 02:33:33,680 --> 02:33:37,400 Speaker 3: That's great, that's but didn't Skip pulled that with Shannon 3173 02:33:37,800 --> 02:33:38,800 Speaker 3: at one point too. 3174 02:33:38,760 --> 02:33:40,400 Speaker 2: About what did you ever do or whatever? 3175 02:33:40,560 --> 02:33:43,040 Speaker 3: Or you never something like that took a shot at 3176 02:33:43,040 --> 02:33:45,200 Speaker 3: Shannon's playing career when he's one of the great tight 3177 02:33:45,280 --> 02:33:48,039 Speaker 3: ends of all time or something like it's I get it's. 3178 02:33:47,920 --> 02:33:50,959 Speaker 2: Part of the act. I understand, but man, there is 3179 02:33:51,600 --> 02:33:54,040 Speaker 2: I struggle with it. Already's really good out it. He 3180 02:33:54,120 --> 02:33:57,120 Speaker 2: doesn't care. He'll just he'll call you more out of 3181 02:33:57,120 --> 02:33:59,880 Speaker 2: your face. And he didn't care. But like for me, 3182 02:34:00,600 --> 02:34:02,920 Speaker 2: if I get fired up like that, I'm like. 3183 02:34:02,720 --> 02:34:03,360 Speaker 1: What do you mean? 3184 02:34:03,840 --> 02:34:07,119 Speaker 2: How dare you? It's a personal cheap shot. I completely 3185 02:34:07,200 --> 02:34:08,959 Speaker 2: understand where that comes from. I don't like it, but 3186 02:34:09,000 --> 02:34:11,360 Speaker 2: I get it. I know, man, that's you got to 3187 02:34:11,400 --> 02:34:13,800 Speaker 2: break out the shives every now and then, I guess 3188 02:34:13,879 --> 02:34:16,640 Speaker 2: to really get somewhere. But Chris Carter was not having 3189 02:34:16,640 --> 02:34:18,800 Speaker 2: it on that day. Ian How long ago was it 3190 02:34:18,840 --> 02:34:20,800 Speaker 2: was that this week when that story came out? It 3191 02:34:20,840 --> 02:34:21,320 Speaker 2: was this week. 3192 02:34:22,400 --> 02:34:24,400 Speaker 3: There are certain lines that you don't cross too, and 3193 02:34:24,440 --> 02:34:26,720 Speaker 3: that's just one of those. It's outside of the scope 3194 02:34:26,760 --> 02:34:28,920 Speaker 3: of the actual argument. I can't think of anything else 3195 02:34:28,959 --> 02:34:31,280 Speaker 3: to say to disagree with you, so I'm just gonna 3196 02:34:31,280 --> 02:34:32,560 Speaker 3: take a personal shot at you. 3197 02:34:32,640 --> 02:34:35,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all that is real quick For the week 3198 02:34:35,320 --> 02:34:38,400 Speaker 2: that was Jerry Jones on a Ceedee Lamb extension. 3199 02:34:38,000 --> 02:34:40,080 Speaker 5: I went tosscoo or I went to college on I 3200 02:34:40,080 --> 02:34:41,760 Speaker 5: don't know why I say it, but I'm just saying 3201 02:34:41,800 --> 02:34:49,800 Speaker 5: I don't have a sense urging it about getting it done. 3202 02:34:51,080 --> 02:34:52,599 Speaker 9: Any reason you won't. 3203 02:34:53,120 --> 02:34:57,600 Speaker 2: God, I had the media members, that's only money. Greatest 3204 02:34:57,640 --> 02:34:59,680 Speaker 2: collection of comedy I've ever been a part of in 3205 02:34:59,680 --> 02:35:03,240 Speaker 2: my life, was there was there more to that? It's 3206 02:35:03,360 --> 02:35:07,040 Speaker 2: every that's all I hear the cut. It's Jerry, you're 3207 02:35:07,080 --> 02:35:09,720 Speaker 2: so funny. So Jerry Jones has a bit of a 3208 02:35:09,760 --> 02:35:12,279 Speaker 2: history with this or I go back to Ezekiel Elliott 3209 02:35:12,520 --> 02:35:14,920 Speaker 2: saga and then what does he do? He pays him? 3210 02:35:15,200 --> 02:35:19,080 Speaker 2: So I just you're not trading ceedee lamb, you're not 3211 02:35:19,120 --> 02:35:21,480 Speaker 2: trading Dak Prescott. You feel like you're in a super 3212 02:35:21,480 --> 02:35:24,520 Speaker 2: Bowl window. He said you were all in and didn't 3213 02:35:24,520 --> 02:35:29,480 Speaker 2: do anything this offseason of substance. But I don't like 3214 02:35:29,560 --> 02:35:32,040 Speaker 2: the disrespect there. Yeah, I don't like it. A lot 3215 02:35:32,080 --> 02:35:33,160 Speaker 2: of sense of urgency. 3216 02:35:33,240 --> 02:35:35,560 Speaker 3: And well when it comes to Dak especially, you talk 3217 02:35:35,600 --> 02:35:37,520 Speaker 3: about not trading, I'm sure they're not going to trade them. 3218 02:35:37,640 --> 02:35:39,560 Speaker 3: You don't have the option of franchising them either. 3219 02:35:40,080 --> 02:35:43,440 Speaker 2: No, you know, you know, uh, this is a show 3220 02:35:43,480 --> 02:35:46,080 Speaker 2: that talks a lot about Raider football whenever I'm not here, 3221 02:35:46,120 --> 02:35:49,040 Speaker 2: I'm sure.

Others have thrown that out there as well. 3266 02:38:10,040 --> 02:38:13,879 Speaker 2: This week, Jalen Hurts talked about reaching out to former 3267 02:38:13,920 --> 02:38:16,600 Speaker 2: Giants defensive coordinator Wink Martindale. 3268 02:38:16,840 --> 02:38:18,560 Speaker 16: Yeah, I was just trying to pick his brain and 3269 02:38:18,600 --> 02:38:20,800 Speaker 16: see what he saw on us and try and get 3270 02:38:20,840 --> 02:38:23,480 Speaker 16: some some tips on some things. Well, I think it's 3271 02:38:23,520 --> 02:38:27,080 Speaker 16: more so for me trying to trying to continue to 3272 02:38:27,480 --> 02:38:31,720 Speaker 16: pour into my cup in terms of knowledge. And you know, 3273 02:38:32,400 --> 02:38:34,000 Speaker 16: I've had a lot of respect for what he've done 3274 02:38:34,000 --> 02:38:36,360 Speaker 16: and we've had a lot of success versus him. I 3275 02:38:36,400 --> 02:38:38,120 Speaker 16: think that was a point where we're definitely trying to 3276 02:38:38,120 --> 02:38:40,400 Speaker 16: make a run and make a puss, and I was 3277 02:38:40,440 --> 02:38:42,280 Speaker 16: just trying to pour into my cup and knowledge from 3278 02:38:42,320 --> 02:38:44,320 Speaker 16: him and pick his brain on some things. And you know, 3279 02:38:44,400 --> 02:38:49,680 Speaker 16: a very very respectable person, actually a great person I'm 3280 02:38:49,680 --> 02:38:52,800 Speaker 16: in that great coach and has a great mentality about 3281 02:38:52,800 --> 02:38:53,959 Speaker 16: how it goes about his business. 3282 02:38:54,040 --> 02:38:57,000 Speaker 2: Okay, first of all, what it's been chopped up here? 3283 02:38:57,800 --> 02:38:59,600 Speaker 2: Is he doing that from the cafeteria? What's going on? 3284 02:39:00,040 --> 02:39:02,800 Speaker 2: It's it's someone chopping up the primary in the background 3285 02:39:02,800 --> 02:39:03,760 Speaker 2: when the world's going on. 3286 02:39:04,440 --> 02:39:06,600 Speaker 3: I think it's a smart move by Jared Hurts though, Yeah, 3287 02:39:07,000 --> 02:39:10,400 Speaker 3: dip into a big resource of knowledge like Wink Martindale. 3288 02:39:10,480 --> 02:39:13,080 Speaker 3: Is has been a great defensive coordinator at the NFL 3289 02:39:13,160 --> 02:39:15,120 Speaker 3: level for a long period of time now at Michigan. 3290 02:39:15,480 --> 02:39:17,400 Speaker 3: If there anything that you can possibly do to give 3291 02:39:17,400 --> 02:39:19,160 Speaker 3: yourself an edge or to get some insight that you 3292 02:39:19,240 --> 02:39:20,480 Speaker 3: otherwise didn't have, why not. 3293 02:39:21,120 --> 02:39:23,800 Speaker 2: And if you're Wink Martindale, you're not coaching in the NFL. Yeah, 3294 02:39:23,800 --> 02:39:25,720 Speaker 2: what do you care? You're you're in the college game now. 3295 02:39:25,760 --> 02:39:27,480 Speaker 2: I thought I thought that was pretty cool. Yeah, And 3296 02:39:27,480 --> 02:39:29,600 Speaker 2: then finally in our final two minutes, come on, man, 3297 02:39:30,040 --> 02:39:31,520 Speaker 2: we get the hang. We're gonna wrap it up with 3298 02:39:31,600 --> 02:39:35,120 Speaker 2: Raider talk. Here is Antonio Pierce, the Raiders head coach, 3299 02:39:35,160 --> 02:39:38,720 Speaker 2: talking about his quarterback battle, which, by the way, has 3300 02:39:38,760 --> 02:39:40,480 Speaker 2: not really given me a lot of confidence. 3301 02:39:40,560 --> 02:39:40,640 Speaker 13: You know. 3302 02:39:40,680 --> 02:39:43,000 Speaker 17: I don't think we've you know, sit there and say 3303 02:39:43,040 --> 02:39:45,920 Speaker 17: somebody's won yet. I think they've both had good moments. 3304 02:39:46,600 --> 02:39:47,120 Speaker 2: I'll go back. 3305 02:39:47,160 --> 02:39:49,640 Speaker 17: I think Gardner's had you know, several days now where 3306 02:39:49,640 --> 02:39:51,800 Speaker 17: he's made some plays, but there's also some turnovers that 3307 02:39:51,879 --> 02:39:53,600 Speaker 17: show up that we don't want to have happen as well. 3308 02:39:53,800 --> 02:39:55,600 Speaker 17: And again when I look at Aden, I see a 3309 02:39:55,640 --> 02:39:57,360 Speaker 17: guy who's you know, throwing the ball accurate. I see 3310 02:39:57,400 --> 02:40:00,320 Speaker 17: some drops wire wide receivers, and I'll he's just on 3311 02:40:00,360 --> 02:40:02,680 Speaker 17: the quarterbacks. I think overall offensive player has to pick 3312 02:40:02,760 --> 02:40:06,000 Speaker 17: up since urgency wide receivers a line just all those 3313 02:40:06,000 --> 02:40:07,880 Speaker 17: guys again go back to the very beginning of my 3314 02:40:07,920 --> 02:40:10,520 Speaker 17: olding a statement of training camp. They're going against a 3315 02:40:10,600 --> 02:40:13,880 Speaker 17: very good defense and I think they're filling that and 3316 02:40:14,160 --> 02:40:16,480 Speaker 17: I think it's good for our team the competition part. 3317 02:40:16,520 --> 02:40:19,400 Speaker 17: But obviously somebody again has to just step up. And 3318 02:40:19,520 --> 02:40:21,560 Speaker 17: we're getting closer and closer, and obviously we're getting the 3319 02:40:21,560 --> 02:40:23,200 Speaker 17: game mode a little bit as we get later in 3320 02:40:23,200 --> 02:40:23,480 Speaker 17: the week. 3321 02:40:23,520 --> 02:40:25,120 Speaker 2: Now, my hope is you and I get to do 3322 02:40:25,160 --> 02:40:29,080 Speaker 2: a show before week one again together. But if we don't. 3323 02:40:29,600 --> 02:40:32,080 Speaker 2: You got started quarterback Week one for the Raiders against 3324 02:40:32,080 --> 02:40:32,600 Speaker 2: the Chargers. 3325 02:40:32,680 --> 02:40:34,440 Speaker 3: Well, we talked about earlier that they're trying to will 3326 02:40:34,480 --> 02:40:36,400 Speaker 3: it into existence. I think they'll make it happen. They're 3327 02:40:36,440 --> 02:40:37,600 Speaker 3: going to go with Aidan O'Connell. 3328 02:40:37,640 --> 02:40:39,640 Speaker 2: I think so too. If I'm the not I think 3329 02:40:39,680 --> 02:40:42,160 Speaker 2: so too. I think so too. I think it's going 3330 02:40:42,240 --> 02:40:44,160 Speaker 2: to be Aid and O'Connell.
