Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.

10
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: To the main event, the main event, and a couple

11
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 1: of auctions here on the main event, and I've decided

12
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: to zig rather than zag. It was an all star

13
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: kind of a night. And I had said it was

14
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: not planning and not planning to watch the pro football

15
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: whatever that.

16
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 3: Was the thing they put out. Was not planning on

17
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 3: watching it.

18
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: However, the thing that I was watching, they had these

19
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: commercial breaks, and so what I did is I occasionally

20
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: would flip over. I would do the old flip flippity flip,

21
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: and I go over there and just to sample, just

22
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: to sample the product, just to sample what was going on.

23
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: So I thought we would start with that, right, We'd

24
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: start with that and kind of work our way through

25
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: the whole thing. As I don't know that you were watching.

26
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: I didn't watch most of it. Roger Goodell fighting for

27
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: your eyeballs as the NFL held what at one point

28
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: was a big deal. It was a point of pride.

29
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: But the NFL got so big and there's so much

30
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: money involved in the NFL, it doesn't matter anymore. The

31
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: players have quit on it, and that's what you get.

32
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: So they called the Pro Bowl. That's quite the name

33
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: for it. Might as well have been played in a

34
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: Cereal Bowl and was played in San Francisco. So if

35
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: you didn't see it, we are told that the NFC

36
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: outscored the AFC thirty to eight in the second half

37
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: of this flag football game, and they came back and

38
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: won a very low scoring defensive battle sixty six to

39
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: fifty two. Is a defense does win championships and the

40
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. This's the all star All Star flag football

41
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: Game now Cowboys. Cowboys wide receiver George slim Pickens was

42
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: named the game's offensive MVP, and he helped them come back.

43
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: For those that watch the game now, the event has

44
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: been universally mocked. It has been lampooned as a total

45
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: sham by those who dared consume the product many people

46
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: questioning how the NFL could put this product on that.

47
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: Somebody must have been asleep at the switch. It was

48
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: that bad of a program that the NFL put out there.

49
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 3: So that's a good jumping off point.

50
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question, do Roger Goodell and the

51
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: NFL big shots deserve.

52
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: To be mocked for the Pro Bowl or whatever that

53
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 3: thing was?

54
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 1: So I've got nuclear fallout, shelter, Olympic Gold, and Emmy Award,

55
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and

56
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 1: we are going to make some delicious sourdough bread because

57
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people sour and they need some bread.

58
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: Put those things together will make some sour dough bread.

59
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 1: So a the answer is to the question, do Roger

60
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 1: Goodell in the NFL people deserve to be mocked for

61
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl? One thousand percent? Right, not one hundred

62
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 1: thousand percent. Poking and prodding is not just deserved, it

63
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: is mandatory.

64
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: It is you.

65
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: Could not get more small time. Ricky Dink does not

66
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: begin to cover what this thing was. This was not

67
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl, This is not an All Star game.

68
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: This was a yard sale with flags sanctioned by the

69
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: National Football League. Rubbers stamped by Roger the Dodger Goodell,

70
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: the same man who keeps telling us that the league

71
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: has never been healthier, that every thing is great, the

72
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: revenues are wonderful, the products, everything's just glory and great.

73
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: And sure if you measure a health by how quickly

74
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: the prestige continues the flat line. It's like, how low

75
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: can you go? I didn't think you could go that low.

76
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 3: We'll do limbo. Let's do the limbo. The Pro Bowl

77
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 3: at one point mattered.

78
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: Now I realized times changed, right, and the NFL is

79
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: not a mom and pop shop anymore. It's big money,

80
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: and with big money come big problems. Players are spoiled,

81
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: they're entitled. They feel it's not worth their time because

82
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 1: they make.

83
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 3: So much money.

84
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: And now this is so great. So the reason, by

85
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: and again, I didn't watch most of it. I want

86
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: to be very clear. I did not why it's not

87
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: a product that I'm interested in. I didn't really resonate

88
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 1: with me so and I actually was at the Pro

89
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,239
Speaker 1: Bowl back in Hawaii when it was legit, and even

90
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: then it was starting to go the wrong direction. Players complained.

91
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: When I covered the Pro Bowl in Hawaii a million

92
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: years ago the players complained that they had that there

93
00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: were a lot of most of the teams on the

94
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: East and so they had to fly all the way

95
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: across the US and fly to Hawaii. You talk about hardship,

96
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,600
Speaker 1: and that was a generation to go. The guys were

97
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: bitching about it back then, and now here we are

98
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: and you see what has happened. But this thing was held,

99
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 1: and I'm not making this up for talk radio. This

100
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: thing was held in the basement of a convention center

101
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: in San Francisco, a venue I would assume normally holds

102
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: boat shows, auto expos, doctors selling some kind of snake oil.

103
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 1: Maybe you can get a new nose or a butt

104
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 1: in plant or something like that. And that's where they

105
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 1: put the NFL's All Star Game. They couldn't kick, not

106
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: because they didn't want to kick. The roof was too

107
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 1: low to kick. This is like back when you play

108
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: out with your boys and you'll be like, let's go

109
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: play in the let's say little the weather's not great,

110
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: so let's play in the gym, and we can't throw

111
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: it too high because it'll hit the roof. They had

112
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: metal bleachers, but not many. It was like a high

113
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: school gym in fact, most high schools I've been to

114
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: have more seating then the NFL Pro Bowl had.

115
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 3: It's great.

116
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: It's like they got together at a restaurant somewhere in

117
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: San Francisco. Maybe they went over to the Stinking Rose,

118
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,119
Speaker 1: had some garlic, and they decided, let's make the rules

119
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: up here, and we'll just write them on a cocktail napkin,

120
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: and that'll be.

121
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 3: The rules of the Pro Bowl.

122
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: You juxtaposed that to what I was watching. Again, I

123
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: didn't watch much of the Pro Bowl. I flipped over

124
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: a couple times because I couldn't believe it. It was

125
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 1: like watching an eighteen car pile up on the interstate.

126
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: You go back and I'm like, wow, I can't believe

127
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 1: that happened. But you juxtapose that to the Westminster Kennell

128
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 1: Club Dog.

129
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 3: Show, which I watched.

130
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: I was on FS one my former colleagues some shows

131
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: back in the day with Chris Myers, part of the

132
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association, and Chris was in a

133
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: tuxedo there and he had the play by play on

134
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: the dog show. They celebrated the one hundred and fiftieth

135
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 1: anniversary at Madison Square Garden. You had glitz, You had glamour,

136
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: you had tradition. It just felt big. It had standards.

137
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 3: The dogs.

138
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: The dogs ended up in the world's most famous arena,

139
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: the Mecca, right there, Midtown Manhattan. The Pro Bowl got

140
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: to be played in a nuclear fallout shelter. That's Roger

141
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: Tell's NFL. When a Doberman named Penny, who won the

142
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 1: Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. When a Doberman named Penny

143
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: looks more big league than your star football players, heads

144
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: should roll in the NFL is so embarrassing, right, he

145
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: keeps saying everything's fine and all that. No, it's just

146
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: corporate spin. You got upstaged by a dog show. If

147
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: that is not a sign things are not going well

148
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: for your little ful gayzy All Star game, I don't

149
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: know what to tell you. You need a flea back.

150
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: A damn dog show was more big league than the

151
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. It is so great, all right now. Meanwhile,

152
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: turning the page prior to the Pro Bowl, Prior to

153
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. So the Browns quarterback Shouldur Sanders puffed

154
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: his chest out and he did an interview. So I

155
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: don't know his bunch of these podcast people and no

156
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: one's listened to him. But he did an interview to

157
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: discuss his rookie season, and Sanders said, the thing that

158
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: he quote appreciated about this year is that he proved

159
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: to himself and he showed, I guess the NFL that

160
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 1: he was able to dominate the league. Let me repeat

161
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,959
Speaker 1: that for those of you a little slow that might

162
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 1: be in the back of the room not paying attention.

163
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: Shouldur Sanders said that the thing he appreciated about this

164
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: past year is that he proved to himself and he

165
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 1: showed that he was able to dominate the league. And that, kids,

166
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: is what we call the money quote. So meanwhile, you

167
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: had Todd Mounkin, the Monkman, saying that nothing has been

168
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: decided on the quarterback in Cleveland for the twenty twenty

169
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: six seasons. So the question what are your impressions of

170
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 1: the Browns shuder Sanders saying that he proved to himself

171
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: and he's capable of dominating the league and all that stuff.

172
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: And then you've got the new head coach, Todd munkin

173
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: the same day not naming a starting quarterback. So this

174
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: is a General Mills special. As yet again we are

175
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: reminded that the top breakfast cereal for Shuder Sanders is

176
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: cuckoo for cocoa puffs, all right, Shuldar Sanders after one

177
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl flag football game.

178
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 3: This was even before the game.

179
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: He was a replacement because seventy five other quarterbacks, we

180
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: ain't going to that thing you want to Why do

181
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: we want to go play in the basement? So a

182
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: replacement Pro Bowl quarterback says that he proved he can

183
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 1: dominate the NFL.

184
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 3: You know what that is.

185
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: That is slapstick comedy. It's a three stooges routine and

186
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: a poke in the eye. Sanders dominated one thing, one

187
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: thing last year, and that was social media. He also

188
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: was pretty good at holding the ball until he ended

189
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: up getting buried. His sack rate was astronomical with the Browns,

190
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 1: and remember sacks are a quarterback stat, not an offensive

191
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 1: line stat. He's below average it scrambling around and he

192
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: has a very little escapability. It's kind of like trying

193
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: to get out of a wet like a wet paper bag.

194
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 3: He could even escape from that. And it does not

195
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 3: have the elite elite arm, which we kind of knew.

196
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: That's why he was drafted later, however, because he completed

197
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: a ten yard slant in a T shirt and a

198
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: hat in a basement at the Pro Bowl. I guess

199
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: we're good now he's the next Mahomes so Hey, his

200
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: overcomes Shadura Sanders. Overconfidence needs a surgeon general's warning.

201
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 3: Is what it needs this particular way now.

202
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the coach Todd Mounkin is going for Olympic gold,

203
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: trying to win the gold in race walking as he

204
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: is slow walking to nowhere on the quarterback news and

205
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: he said, oh, we won't have a starter. He won't

206
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: name a starter. He's given everyone the run around in

207
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: an exhilarating race to mediocrity. And the factory of sadness

208
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 1: never fails. The factory of sadness never fails.

209
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: They just have to keep buying.

210
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: The clown makeup, the clown knows and the clown shoes.

211
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: The coaches and the players change, but the consistency of

212
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: the brand stays the same, and they just does all

213
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 1: right now the last word. We head back to the

214
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: New York tri state area where people buzz in here

215
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 1: very upset with John Harbaugh. Why are they upset with

216
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 1: John Harbaugh? The former Ravens coach. Well, John Harbaugh was

217
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: hired with much fanfare to lead the Giants out of

218
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: the Abyss this offseason, and like everyone that comes to

219
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: New York, the fan base immediately planned a ticker tape

220
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: parade through the Canyon of Heroes. Unfortunately, they have to

221
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: go out and play the games. Well, the initially optimistic,

222
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: giddy New York Giant fan has decided that they're no

223
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 1: longer happy days around.

224
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 3: They're not happy.

225
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: Why Why Because former Bears head coach and more recently

226
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: the Chiefs offensive coordinator who had no active role in

227
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: anything because Andy Reid runs the show.

228
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 3: Matt Naggy was named the new OC.

229
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:54,439
Speaker 1: That would be offensive coordinator for Big Blue after Todd Munkin.

230
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 1: As we mentioned, he's now the Browns coach. He was

231
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: supposed to go to the Giants, but the Browns hired him.

232
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 1: Nobody else wanted him as a head coach, so Naggy

233
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: goes to the Giants. And this is also getting goofed

234
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: on around the NFL and people pointing fingers and doing

235
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: the full Nelson hah, everyone doubting that Nagy has the

236
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: skill set the ability to develop young quarterback Jackson Dart.

237
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: All right, so the question here is John Harbaugh guilty

238
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: of a football folly?

239
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 3: Hiring Matt Naggy.

240
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 1: To help Jackson dart and be the Giants offensive coordinator.

241
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: So I went to the Mallard scorecard. I went to

242
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: the Mallard scorecard on this, and on the Mallard scorecard,

243
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: this does not get an A or a B or

244
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: a C. However, it does not get a D or

245
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: an F. On the Mallard scorecard, I wrote down, you

246
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: you you, that's a three U move meaning unimaginative, uninspired,

247
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: and unoriginal, painfully unoriginal complete.

248
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 3: Let that on.

249
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: This is an Emmy Award winner though for John Harbaugh,

250
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: and it really is. An unforced error, is what it is.

251
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: And a bad job by him, bad job by him.

252
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the NFL.

253
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: The NFL is the world's most expensive recycling operation.

254
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 3: You know. I read a story a.

255
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: Couple of years ago that, you know, a lot of

256
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: places like they think they're helping the world by recycling.

257
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: It plays like California whatever, a lot of recycling, and

258
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: then most of it just doesn't end up getting recycled.

259
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 1: But it makes you feel good, you know, it makes

260
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 1: you feel good. These coaches get recycled and people think, well,

261
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna be better in their next stop. They're almost

262
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: never better in their next stop and then but makes

263
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: you feel good. So Naggy, I have nothing against the guy.

264
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 3: I've heard.

265
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: He's a really cool guy to hang out with. He's

266
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: the ultimate good old boy. It's fun at parties, very social, charismatic,

267
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: all that stuff, which is great. Unfortunately, the coaching stuff

268
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: appears to be a problem, and he didn't do terribly

269
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: in Chicago, considering he had Mitchell Trubisky as his quarterback.

270
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: As another guy, Matt Naggi, who gets shuffled around the

271
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: NFL like a deck of cards at a senior center

272
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 1: because he's a player's.

273
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 3: Coach and that's what they sell him as.

274
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 4: And the translation on that it's it's black and it's

275
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 4: a black and white silent film playing at an Imax theater.

276
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 3: It kind of defeats the point.

277
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: Right, and it's like the whole you have this sound,

278
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: immersive experience, So why would you put an old Charlie

279
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: Chaplin black and white silent.

280
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 3: Film up there at an Imax theater? Don't makes sense.

281
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: If Jackson darts starts barfing giant chunks of ravioli, big

282
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: chunks of ravioli all over the field, he will get

283
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: a Mulligan. So that's the way I look at this,

284
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: because it was just gonna blame the offensive corners. Well,

285
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: it's not Jackson Dart's fault, health, no accountability because of

286
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: the Nagman Naggy, and then blame him Matt Naggy, And

287
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: so that's a Mulligan. A Mulligan situation is what that is.

288

00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: Now years ago you might not know this because maybe

316
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 1: you haven't been with me that long, but before I

317
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: went fully into radio, I ran a sports gossip website,

318
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: a blog and did some good things, had some success

319
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: with that, and that worked with some big time people

320
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: back in the day. And one of the mantras in

321
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: the newsroom at that website was today's rumors or tomorrow's news. Well,

322
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 1: in this case, yesterday's rumors are today's news. Our lead

323
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: story from the trading block. We are one day away

324
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 1: now from the musical chairs stopping tomorrow afternoon, Thursday afternoon,

325
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: the music will stop.

326
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 6: Now.

327
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 3: We did get a few big deals done if you

328
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 3: have not hurt. Perhaps not.

329
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: And yet again, yesterday's rumors, today's reality. The Clippers did

330
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: say bye bye to James Harden. He was decommissioned and

331
00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: sent off to the Cleveland Cadavers for Darius Garland and

332
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 1: a second round pick.

333
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 3: Now.

334
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: Following that trade, Harden claimed that he did not want

335
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 1: to feel like he was quote holding the Clippers up

336
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: in their future, he said, adding that both sides got

337
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: what they wanted. Regarding the trade between Cleveland and la

338
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 1: Harden emphatically pushing back, push it back, now, pushing back

339
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: on the widespread, widespread speculation that he had requested a

340
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 1: trade from the Clippers.

341
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 3: So Harden's like, I didn't do that. Why would I

342
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 3: do that? I didn't do that? All right, that's a

343
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 3: good jumping off points.

344
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question do you believe James

345
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 1: Harden when he says he did not ask, did not

346
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: ask for an exit from the Clippers, did not request

347
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 1: the trade. So my observations on this, I've gotten made

348
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: off Shark Week and Tootsie Pop. And we will combine

349
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: all of these things together and we're gonna play Connect

350
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: three is what we're gonna play.

351
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 3: So number wha. All right, we'll delayed on that, all right.

352
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, listen to believe this, to believe that James Harden

353
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 1: did not initiate the trade conversation. To believe this is

354
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,359
Speaker 1: to also believe that you are living in a magical

355
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 1: forest where the Beard woke up one morning and said,

356
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't want to be a burden.

357
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to hold the clippers back because I

358
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: love the Clippers so.

359
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 3: Much, I don't want to hold them back. It's adorable.

360
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 3: And if you believe this, you're dumb. It's nonsense. It's farcical,

361
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:16,199
Speaker 3: is what it is.

362
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: This is like Bernie Madeoff lecturing a room about ethical investing,

363
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: is what it is.

364
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 3: Come on, Harden, His track record is legendary.

365
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: He says he did not ask out, which is a

366
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: technicality wrapped in performance art by James Harden. And the

367
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: fact that he's bringing this up is a dead giveaway.

368
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 3: What we all thought is reality.

369
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: He didn't need to slam the door, he didn't need

370
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: to light the match, per se. And it's a game

371
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: of semantics. It's a game of semantics, right. All Harden

372
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: had to do, based on his track record. All he

373
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: had to do was just crack a window, wink and

374
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:03,000
Speaker 1: a nod, and the entire Hire NBA executive panel starts

375
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: screaming like someone spotted a raccoon in the kitchen.

376
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:08,719
Speaker 3: Right, you start freaking out like, well, who let that

377
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,360
Speaker 3: in there? I didn't let that? What did you leave

378
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 3: the why's the window open? You let the thing in there?

379
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,400
Speaker 3: What's wrong with you? The only way.

380
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: This trade happens, and let me say this for those

381
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 1: that are up in the upper balcony, the only way

382
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: this trade happens is with the blessing of James Harden,

383
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: full stop, full stop, for a couple of reasons. The

384
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: main reason is Harden had the ability to put the

385
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,800
Speaker 1: kebash on the deal. That's obvious, right Harden. If you

386
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 1: look at his situation and he is a Rhodes scholar

387
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 1: at wearing out his welcome or just getting bored with

388
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: places and my entire life. No one signs off on

389
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 1: a trade at that level ballplayer to Cleveland unless they

390
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: want to go to Cleveland. That's also a tell you

391
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 1: think if Hardens just quietly was sitting on the sidelines

392
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 1: as like, okay, well, I guess you want to trade

393
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: me you can trade me.

394
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,120
Speaker 4: I'm not going to Cleveland. I don't know who goes

395
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 4: to Cleveland on vacation.

396
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: Well, Hard's gonna be there for February March, and he

397
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: hopes all the way until the summertime.

398
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 3: But this is what he does.

399
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: Eventually he'll go somewhere the vibes go bad, the mojoe

400
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,479
Speaker 1: isn't working, and he'll pack up the old station wagon

401
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 1: like a good carpetbagger and go to his next outpost

402
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 1: and sell.

403
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 3: The same snake oil to somewhere else.

404
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: And this time he's pretending everything's mutual and all that,

405
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: and both sides got what they wanted. Kurk Flewey, I say,

406
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: kerk floy. Now, meanwhile, the other question here, does James

407
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: Harden push the Cavaliers higher up on Benny's big board

408
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: in terms of the pecking order in the Eastern Conference,

409
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 1: because why else would you make this trade. You're only

410
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: getting Harden, You're only guaranteed to get hardened for a

411
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,959
Speaker 1: couple months. So why would you make this trade if

412
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: you don't believe that James Harden's going to put you

413
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: at a higher level on the big board. So the

414
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: only and I looked at this all ankles. But the

415
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 1: only way I see James Harden pushing the Cavaliers to

416
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 1: a higher level is if you're playing, you get your

417
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,439
Speaker 1: joystick out, you get your remote, your controller, and you're

418
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: playing NBA two K, and you make sure to have

419
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: the injuries turned off and defense.

420
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,480
Speaker 3: Sent to optional. If you can do that on like

421
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 3: the rookie level, you'll you'll be in good shape.

422
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: This is next level Hutzba Cleveland acting like James Harden

423
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: is some kind of playoff elevator.

424
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 3: You might want to call the otis elevator repair people.

425
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 3: He's not an elevator.

426
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 1: He's more of an escalator that only goes down and

427
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: it breaks halfway down. That's James Harden playoff. Harden playoff.

428
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: And I tried to be Benny Brightside. I tried to

429
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: be optimistic. I gave Harden the benefit of the doubt,

430
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: and he yet again had the Presidential Suite a heartbreak

431
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: hotel in the playoffs. And it's a playoff. Harden is

432
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: a jump scare movie villain. Looks terrifying until the lights

433
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 1: get turned a little bit brighter. He's a blow average defender,

434
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: which is said most of the top.

435
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 3: Level offensive players are not great defensive players.

436
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 1: The problem is he gets targeted, hunted in the playoffs

437
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,440
Speaker 1: because any coach.

438
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 3: Worth their salt knows that if you're going.

439
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: To attack someone's weaknesses another team, if Harden's on the team,

440
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 1: you just attack him. In the postseason, teams circle him.

441
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 1: It's like Shark Week on the Discovery Channel. And Harden's

442
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: effort goes in and out like bad Wi Fi on

443
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,679
Speaker 1: a Spirit Airlines plane, right just going in. And the

444
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: biggest issue here though, playoff referee. It's a different game.

445
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: It's officiated differently. You know it, and I know it.

446
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 1: They often put the whistle to bed to take a

447
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: nice nap, and suddenly James Harden's entire superpower, which is

448
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 1: foul baiting turns into turnovers and really sad looking step

449
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 1: back jump shots that don't have much of a chance

450
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 1: of going in and a sour puss on his face

451
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. Watching Harden in the playoffs, Ye,

452
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: you'd have as much success if you just put your

453
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: head in a high speed ceiling fan and made sure

454
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: it was turned as high as it goes, and just

455
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: put your head in there.

456
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 3: It's a bumpy ride if you're lucky, it's a bumpy ride.

457
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: And if the Cavaliers think that James Harden is going

458
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 1: to take them past the top teams in the East

459
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:44,879
Speaker 1: right now, it's teams like Detroit, New York, Boston, good luck.

460
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: You know, I've got some ocean front property in Dayton, Ohio.

461
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 1: I can say, right on the ocean, right there, on

462
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 1: the mighty Atlantic Ocean. I can put you right there

463
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,360
Speaker 1: all right now, page two. So the Clippers in this

464
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: transaction acquired All star guard Garland at what seems to

465
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: be a relatively speaking discounted price tag for Darius Garland

466
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: when you look at where he's at in his career.

467
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 3: So the question why why was.

468
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: Cleveland so willing to trade a twenty six year old

469
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: two time All Star in Darius Garland to the Clippers.

470
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: So on this one, it's it's a Tutsi pop problem,

471
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 1: is what it is. It's the Tutsi pop. How many

472
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 1: licks does it take before the whole thing cracks?

473
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 2: One?

474
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: Two, three, crunchy, crunchy, crunchy. We're talking about tow issues here,

475
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 1: toe issues there, toe issues everywhere, left toe surgery for

476
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: Darius Garland, right toe spraying. Suddenly Garland walking around like

477
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: he's stepping on legos in the dark, and every other

478
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 1: step there's a lego. And I did get an email

479
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: from a guy in Ohio. I think he's from Cleveland.

480
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 6: I don't know.

481
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 1: These people just send me emails and a lot of

482
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: you idiots now send messages about say where you're from.

483
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 3: So I just have to guess.

484
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess the guy's either he's from Ohio, he's

485
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: from Cleveland, or he used to live in Ohio and

486
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: he's a Cavs fan.

487
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 6: Whatever.

488
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 4: So he's explaining, well, the reason you got Garland, I

489
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 4: know you're gonna praise him, the reason you got Darius

490
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 4: Garland because he's damaged goods and he's gonna be hurt and.

491
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 3: That's why the Cavs are gonna trade him.

492
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 5: Blah blah blah blah blah blah b b b ba

493
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 5: ba ba ba.

494
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 3: Okay, So before we get to that, the talent is there.

495
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: The talent is there. The kid can shoot when he's right,

496
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: he's a flamethrower. And it is a legitimate variable that

497
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: availability is the cliche goes is the best ability, and

498
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: the NBA is a league of players that do not

499
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 1: like to play basketball. Which is unfortunate, and if they

500
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: have any excuse to not play basketball. They're getting hemorrhoids

501
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: on the bench, which is not the way it used

502
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: to be, but it is the way it is now,

503
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: and so Garland has been dressed up like an assistant

504
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 1: coach sitting on the bench getting those hemorrhoids quite a bit.

505
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: From the Clipper standpoint, it's risk a little, get a lot,

506
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: like they were gonna get rid of Harden at the.

507
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 4: End of the year.

508
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: Anyway, he likely wasn't gonna be back. He clearly was

509
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: not happy, So they were gonna get rid of Harden.

510
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 1: They flip Hardened and they take a shot. It's kind

511
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,440
Speaker 1: of like playing with house money here. You got a

512
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 1: little bit of house money.

513
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,879
Speaker 3: You go in there and you hope you hit a jackpot.

514
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 3: You want to hit that jackpot.

515
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 1: You get a younger player who's under contract, and it's

516
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: a big if. Ifs and butts were candy and nuts,

517
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,400
Speaker 1: you'd win the championship every year. If he does get

518
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: back to that point, he's a cornerstone ball player in

519
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: the NBA. So it is a calculated It is a

520
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: calculated risk for Steve Balmer, and they're betting that Garland

521
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: will be okay. And and I know Balmer lost a

522
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: bunch of money because the Microsoft stock went in the

523
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: toilet the other day. But Balmber could still afford to

524
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 1: buy a bunch of new toes for Garland if he

525
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: has to. I'll get you a new big toe. I

526
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: can get you that middle toe. I'll get you a

527
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: little tiny toe, whatever toe you want. Yeah, I'll get

528
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 1: your toe, all right now. Final point. So we also

529
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: had trades, not as big trades, but the Utah Jazz

530
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 1: made a deal with the Memphis Grizzlies for a defensive

531
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: Player of the Year talent. The Chicago Bulls made a deal,

532
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: a couple of deals, and the Boston Celtics medi trade

533
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: with the Celtics. Minnesota was also involved. So the question

534
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: what else stood out about the NBA's trading post. What

535
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 1: else stood out about this? So the big I say

536
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: big relatively speaking, The big one is the Jazz acquiring

537
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: Jaron Jackson junior. He goes to Salt Lake from the Grizzlies.

538
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: Some people are saying that's a blockbuster trade. I'm not

539
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: that smart. Can someone explain to me how that is

540
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: a blockbuster trade? At this point, the Utah Jazz and

541
00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: the Memphis Grizzlies.

542
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 3: They exist. The good teams have someone to play. You

543
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. You feel me on that, right.

544
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: So most of the players who were traded I've never

545
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: heard of, Like Jared Jackson, I've heard of, Okay, I

546
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: know who that is.

547
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 3: These other guys, they are faceless, nameless nobody's who were traded.

548
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: And then there were three first round draft picks that

549
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: go to Memphis, which is the basketball equivalent of selling

550
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: beachfront property because winter is coming and that we got

551
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: to sell it. And Jackson goes from playing the Blues

552
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: to playing with the Jazz. Good luck on that. From

553
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: barbecue smoke to Mountain Air and from Mongolia to Siberia

554
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: the same coal, just a different different group of people

555
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 1: living in that town. But Utah gets a in theory,

556
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,520
Speaker 1: a defensive eraser. And this is really a play.

557
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 3: For next year, Like this is Danny Ainge, like the

558
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 3: next year is going to be the time that the

559
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 3: Jazz go for it.

560
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: And this is just a puzzle piece for next year's team,

561
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 1: not this year's team, because this year they blow and

562
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: what Memphis is gonna do is the oldest con that's

563
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: out there in pro sports. They're gonna sell hope, false hope,

564
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 1: a lot of false hope by the box. By the box,

565
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: and it's cheaper, it's easier you can store hope. Oh,

566
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: these draft picks are going to work, which is funny.

567
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: I did get another message. I'd not right back to

568
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: this person either, Mike from I think he's in Oklahoma.

569
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: I don't know Thunder fans outside of Oklahoma, so I'm

570
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 1: gonna assume he's in Oklahoma. And he sent me a

571
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: message like you always rip draft picks, Maul, you say

572
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: you hate the draft. Look at Oklahoma City. They're the

573
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: top team in basketball. They won the championship. It's all

574
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: because of the draft picks. And I'm like, no, the

575
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: reason the Thunder are great is because of a player

576
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: they acquired in a.

577
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 3: Trade from the Clippers.

578
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: Because the Clippers are so good they could go give

579
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 1: away a most valuable player Shay Jogis Alexander was not

580
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: a player.

581
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 3: That Oklahoma City drafted.

582
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: So it's like this Memphis getting all these draft picks.

583
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: It's like, well, that's wonderful. Let me know when one

584
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: of them turns out.

585
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 3: To be good. Who cares?

586
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: Okay because he can't really sell it anymore because the

587
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: draft picks usually just go to the G League.

588
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 3: Most of them these days.

589
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, Now, soon after that trade, we had the Pistons,

590
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: Bulls and tim.

591
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 3: Wolves make a trade.

592
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: The names that you may have heard of, Jaden Ivy

593
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: and Mike Conley go to Chicago. Course with Conley, there's

594
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: always the buyout option. Then Boston acquired Nicola Vusovich from

595
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bulls for Anthony's Simons. So he goes to Chicago.

596
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: Now the flea market specials Vusovich. He's been a pretty

597
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: good box score guy. It hasn't been on good teams.

598
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: He exits the Chicago team.

599
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 3: It's like an escape room.

600
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: He got to leave and go through the escape room

601
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: and all that and joins the Celtics, where generally speaking,

602
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: if you're a productive big man you can shoot a

603
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: little bit. You're treated like royalty and you can look

604
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 1: up the rafters the r Box Center and see all

605
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: those banners and all that stuff.

606
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: And so Husovich gets the.

607
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: Parquet floors, he gets a trip to the playoffs and

608
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: can have dinner with Lucky the Leprechaun.

609
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 3: So he's got all that.

610
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: Not Michael lepercun but Lucky the Leprechaun, so he's got

611
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: that going for him too.

612
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler

613
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

614
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 6: All right, cool, it's Marty Janetti. By the way, famous

615
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 6: ww wrestler. During his press conference on Monday.

616
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,239
Speaker 7: Thanks for touching up my work, Thank you, thank you,

617
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 7: Roger Gooddellson Roger Caddell suggested that replay officials in stadium

618
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 7: or officials monitoring games at league headquarters could start calling

619
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 7: penalties to correct an obvious error.

620
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 6: Ben would be good for the game? Are bad for

621
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 6: the game?

622
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 3: Yes? I think we should have seven hour games.

623
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: Let's just review every single play because unless we get

624
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: it right, we can't go on with the game.

625
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 7: Right.

626
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: And why don't we just give Seattle two point conversions

627
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: that they didn't get on replay?

628
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 3: How about that? That worked out?

629
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: Well, that's Seattles in the Super Bowl because the NFL

630
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: officials gave him two points right next, But.

631
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 6: You're not bitter?

632
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:07,239
Speaker 4: Uh?

633
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 6: Now that the ten NFL head coaching vacancies have been filled,

634
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 6: which one of the new hires do you think will

635
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 6: have the most immediate success.

636
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 1: Well, the obvious you go with Baltimore because they have

637
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: an MVP quarterback, Lamar Jackson.

638
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 4: You go with Buffalo because they have an MVP quarterback.

639
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 4: Those are the two obvious ones. The other ones you're

640
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 4: throwing pasta against the wall.

641
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 3: Is what you do it next?

642
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,400
Speaker 6: Recent reports say that is it is inevitable that the

643
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 6: Lakers and Lebron James will go their separate ways this summer.

644
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 6: Let's say that Lebron doesn't retire, where do you see

645
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 6: him ending up?

646
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: Well, the obvious answer, and this has been telegraphed for

647
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 1: years as always, they say, well, Lebron's gonna go back

648
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: to Cleveland.

649
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 3: It's gonna be.

650
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: He started in Cleveland, he left, he went back to Cleveland,

651
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: he left again, and he's gonna go back. I know

652
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: he's from Akron, but close enough. And so that's where Lebron,

653
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 1: the story for Lebron will end with the Cavs.

654
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 3: How did we doubt you pass this edition? That is it?

655
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,040
