00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 2: may know this. That that and Ann Revis Jarvis created

20
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 2: the founding of Mother's Day after her mom died. Her

21
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: mom and died on May ninth, nineteen oh five, and

22
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: she set out to create a data honor her and

23
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: moms as a group. West Virginia had the first official

24
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: Mother's Day, and in nineteen fourteen President Woodrow Wilson signed

25
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 2: the bill making it an official holiday celebrated each second

26
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: Sunday in May. So Happy Mother's Day to all the

29
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: Absolutely. It's a good day if you celebrate your mother

30
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: all the time. But if we have one special day

31
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: to do so, put in the effort and make a

32
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: feel even more special.

33
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: Okay, Now I need to like stick my chest out

34
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 2: and tell you the kind of partner that you're working with. Okay,

35
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:41,199

00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 3: So?

37
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 2: I know you work with teammates and some of these

38
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 2: guys doged it. Some of these guys wouldn't play because

39
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: of a hangnail. Okay, I'm going to tell you the

40
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 2: kind of guy that I am, and you'd love to

41
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: go to war with me. I had hip surgery on

42
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 2: Tuesday and I'm here with you to work. How's that?

43
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: How's that good? How did it go? It was in

44
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: your first were a second one.

45
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: My second one, I left one. I had my right

46
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: one a couple of years ago and it wore out. Okay,

47
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: So I had the left one on Tuesday morning at

48
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 2: ten o'clock in the morning, and by three o'clock I

49
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 2: was home. I believe no, right, it's crazy.

50
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, my dad's gonna have a second one soon too.

51
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: And yeah, you just like you just bounce back hips

52
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: and knees. But my wife used to. My wife's in

53
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: medical field. She just does sportsman's it now, but her first,

54
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: her first job as a medical assistant, was working for

55
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: a doctor who did hip replacements. So I've seen, like

56
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: for years now how they've gotten better, and just like

57
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: the ability to just get it done and walk out

58
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: the next day. You're taking your daily walk, I imagine.

59
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: Yes, every hourly five minutes. I do it up down

60
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 2: the steps, I do it.

61
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: I got to do do You're stretching like, uh, it's

62
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: crazy technology, man. They just go in and you get

63
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: a brand new hip and you feel much better afterwards.

64
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: No doubt. And I told the doctor what I'd like

65
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: to do when I'm feeling one hundred percent, I like

66
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: to watch him perform the operation. If I can, he said,

67
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 2: I'll see what he could do. They have an observation room.

68
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: Maybe it's an amazing thing. I heard that Shaquille O'Neil

69
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: had one and they had to have a special hit

70
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: for him. I'm sure they seven foot three, right, I mean,

71
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 2: come on, I'm kind of a hip that he has.

72
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: That's a good question. Actually might have they might have.

73
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: They might have had to make him a special one, dude,

74
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm sure. I'm sure you go on YouTube and find

75
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: videos up. I remember when I was my wife and

76
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: I we were first dating, she brought home on a

77
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: on a CD, a DVD. She brought home a near

78
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: replacement video to watch because and it's kind of gross

79
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: new replacement. It's a lot of different tools in near replacement.

80
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: You got a saw, you got a hammer. It's like,

81
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure with a hip to you, you know all

82
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: those things as well. So it's a lot of I

83
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: don't know if you're gonna be able to withstand the

84
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: violence of it, a little bit like a song and

85
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: the hammering.

86
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 2: And I don't think you should see it prior to

87
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 2: the operation.

88
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: But now that you're not gonna have any more of them,

89
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,839
Speaker 1: you're watching it. I finished Yeah right, I'm glad you're here.

90
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're feeling well, Glad to be with you.

91
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: And hopefully every every top, every hour you're getting your

92
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: walking so you know, keep that that blood flow moving

93
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: around that hip. And yeah, Tuesday would have been what

94
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: Lakers with that Lakers game five? So you're just you're

95
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: just watching basketball the at home. Huh.

96
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 2: And I'm waiting for the seventy six of Celtic this

97
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: say afternoon. That should be a big see what happens there?

98
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: But what happens to that game tonight? Dude? Does anyone

99
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: have any idea what happens in that game? Tight? Because

100
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: I can't tell you what I expect with either team

101
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: because either team, it depends on the day, how the

102
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: weather is doing, how the coach is feeling, how the

103
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,159
Speaker 1: players are feeling. Does Boston want to play to their ability?

104
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: Do they not? Just does a big unit? Is he

105
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: going to be as good as he can be? As

106
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 1: hardly going to show up?

107
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 3: Like?

108
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: How does anyone preview at center game in this series?

109
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 2: Well, I would say this, and I know you're you

110
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: like to put the shekels down a little bit.

111
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: I have not wager on this series in like four games.

112
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 2: Okay, the last time I looked at the Celtic so

113
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: favored by seven.

114
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 1: They're seventy game five too.

115
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: I would take the seven in Philadelphia, even though the

116
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: game is in Boston. I think I would because it's

117
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: so crazy. I don't know it was Joel Nbika go off.

118
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: Harden could go off. He has a good game of

119
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,039
Speaker 2: bad game. But I think the key right there, and

120
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 2: I don't know if their coach, Doc Rivers is going

121
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: to choke. His coaching record now is seventeen thirty two

122
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 2: in closeout games, and I think that he's got to

123
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 2: be in the back of his mind. I mean, you

124
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 2: got to believe that. And if his players read that,

125
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: I mean that's got to be some sort of a factor.

126
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 1: Wells players probably know that. I mean, they're on social media.

127
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: They understand that. I just don't know. And you know

128
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: why that is in this series, especially right, I mean,

129
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: they're the less talented team, so they end up losing

130
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: the series. I think that makes sense on paper at least,

131
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: But obviously, when you're up three to you have the

132
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: game six at home, you ought to finish that game,

133
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: right that they that's.

134
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,919
Speaker 2: The game you have to have and the three quarters, and.

135
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: They had him and just couldn't finish. And they had

136
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: been the better of the clutch teams at the end, right,

137
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: like their numbers are better at the end of games,

138
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: they're clutched rating whatever it is is better, and they

139
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 1: were able to close that game out, and that that

140
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: game is gonna haunt them. That's the one where you

141
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: look at and you say, Okay, well, you know we

142
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: had to win that one to get to where I

143
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: want to be. And now you tell yourself up for

144
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 1: Game seven. But Boston has lost a fair amount of

145
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: home games in these playoffs, like games you would not expect.

146
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 1: They lost Game one obviously at home. They lost Game five.

147
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: They lost games at Celta, to Me, to the Hawks.

148
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: I mean in round one, they lost games at home.

149
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: You would not expect them to lose. And that's why

150
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 1: I think tonight so today, the game is today, three

151
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 1: thirty Eastern. It's so hard to handicap it just you

152
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what to expect from either of these teams.

153
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: Like I knew what to expect from the Lakers and

154
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: the Warriors. The Nuggets and Sons seemed fairly predictable at

155
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: the end of that series, but this one man who

156
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:54,919
Speaker 1: knows who you know.

157
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 2: It's funny. I've changed my mind because going into the playoffs,

158
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 2: I predicted the Bucks to win the whole thing, So

159
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 2: that bounced outsider out of it. Right now, I've changed

160
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: my situation. I think that the winner of the entire

161
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,200
Speaker 2: situation to Champions. I think they're gonna come out of

162
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 2: the West and it may very well be dead.

163
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: I think they are too. I'm a Lakers fans, obviously,

164
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a little bit uh, you know, put

165
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: a Homer hat on here. But when you get, when

166
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: you get, when you get, you get Lonnie Walker. You

167
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: can get fifteen points in the fourth quarter of a

168
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: playoff game and the second round against the defending champions.

169
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: I kind of feel like it's your year. And you know,

170
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: I thought, as you mentioned, I do like to to

171
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: put somebody down the games. I for the first time,

172
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: I bet on Lebron to do to basically do well

173
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: in a game like you can you'll bet. Obviously, each

174
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: game is his point total, and I've been I've been

175
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: leaning toward the under because he has not scored a

176
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: lot of points in the series. Also said that twenty.

177
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 2: Six and he really didn't have to when you think

178
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 2: about it, put it on his back.

179
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: But game six, I knew we'd get Lebron because he

180
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: won to end the series now, and we got Lebron.

181
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: We got thirty nine to nine with incredible performance for

182
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: a thirty eight year old, And so he still has

183
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: that in him when he needs to and if Ade

184
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: stays healthy. Now, obviously this Denver series is going to

185
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,239
Speaker 1: be very difficult because of playing in Denver so hard,

186
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: and and Jokers playing incredibly well, and he's doing he's

187
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: doing HEMVP things right. He's the best player in the

188
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: game right now. So it's gonna be hard to play

189
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: them over seven games. But I feel like it's it

190
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: feels like it's there, like they're just kind of things

191
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: are clicking when they're supposed to be. But again, Denver

192
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: is really really good. So we'll see. If the Lakers

193
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: can shoot well, they have a chance. If not, Denver

194
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: probably takes the series. And you're right, the winner of

195
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 1: the Western Conference most likely wins the championship. Is Miami's

196
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: not gonna win the championship. Fun story, They're not gooding

197
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 1: win the championship.

198
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 2: But I think if Boston wins. I think if Boston

199
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 2: I had gone leaning toys them because the game is

200
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 2: in Boston. I think Miami beats Boston. I really do.

201
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: I just think the way Miami he's Miney just doesn't

202
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 2: it's tight.

203
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: But Miami doesn't have the I don't know if they

204
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: have the guys to to score against an actual team

205
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: that can score, like like the Knicks couldn't score in

206
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: this series. And obviously, as you mentioned, the defense of

207
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: of the Heat was was fantastic. But you know you're

208
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: going to geinst the Celtics team that you know, I

209
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: guess has the ability or or or Philly to score

210
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: with multiple different guys that you didn't face with, you know,

211
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: with with with the Knicks. So we'll say, who knows.

212
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

213
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 2: The one thing that bothers me is like usually one

214
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 2: series will depend the future of a coach. I mean,

215
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 2: it's saying today that Doc Rivers today is coaching for

216
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: his life in Philadelphia, so if they lose, he might

217
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: get canned. Number One Monty Williams gets fired by Phoenix.

218
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 2: I mean, the guy's kind of almost a sixty career

219
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 2: wise with the Sons, and they fired a guy. I

220
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 2: mean It doesn't make any sense. But that's the way

221
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 2: these guys are, these gms and these owners. Did they

222
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 2: big to have that knee jerk reaction is crazy?

223
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 1: Well, the thing about the Suns is good. Even new

224
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: owner of matt Eshbia is in his owner. Now you

225
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: know you're you're going to want to put your mark

226
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: on the team. And he did already with the Kevin

227
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: Durant trade, which he okayed, right, is right. He took

228
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: command of the team and then you want to, you know,

229
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: a new coach. I guess in theory makes sense, right, like, okay,

230
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: let's bring someone else in. But I don't know how

231
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: you blame Monty Williams or anything that happened with the Sons, right,

232
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 1: they had they had six guys that they could trust,

233
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: right and injuries, that's a injuries injuries and and you

234
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 1: know six seven guys that and you did this with

235
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: the Durant trade you made, the team would have a

236
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: far less depth because of that trade. I'm not sure

237
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: money Work could have done anything differently, and especially in

238
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: this I don't know. Sometimes in the NBA, you know

239
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: if a coach, coach like money Williams in the situation

240
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: could do anything differently to make to make the Sun's better.

241
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,599
Speaker 1: And when you fire a coach in any sport, and

242
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: when you fire a coach, you have to think to yourself,

243
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: can I find someone better?

244
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 2: Right?

245
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: So who are they going to hire? Who is better

246
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 1: than money Williams?

247
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 2: It's tough. I mean, he's gonna be a hot commodity

248
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: on the market right now. I think he's a hell

249
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: of a coach. We'll see what happens. I mean, it's crazy,

250
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 2: it really is. I mean, and Doc Rivers, I'm not Look,

251
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 2: I'm not going to say he's a good coach a

252
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: bad coach. I think he's done the best he can

253
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 2: with that seventy six ers team. But to have his

254
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 2: career dependent upon this one game today, it's nuts. It's crazy.

255
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 2: He really is.

256
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: I think as a coach he's with underwhelming, Like right,

257
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: you have that you had that big three in Boston.

258
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: One championship in Boston with that big three and they

259
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 1: lost the Lakers the next year and the more in

260
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: our test game in game seven there it's funny to

261
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 1: watch sometimes like older NBA because the Lakers Boston Ian

262
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 1: was nine with the run on our test game was

263
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: like eighty three seventy nine was a final score of

264
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: a game seven finals game uh and uh, and that

265
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 1: was it. Like that they won one championship man in

266
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 1: that in that time, and obviously with the Clippers, it

267
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: was the best Clippers team they've had and ever maybe

268
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: in UP three one and loses that series. So it's

269
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: not not been great for Dacas. He's a great he's

270
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: in coach. He wanted to He won Boston obviously, so

271
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: you can't take that away from him. But the last

272
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: was the last couple of go arounds with the teams

273
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 1: have I think people would agree and didn't failure.

274
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 3: You know.

275
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 2: It's it's funny because I complained that the playoffs are

276
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 2: going on too long, but I love them. I love

277
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 2: watching these games. Did great games. It's one of the

278
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 2: best playoffs series, I think in years. But the officiating

279
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: really is sub part. I'm watching like turning the ball over, walking,

280
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: I mean, just fouling. I'm not having these calls. I

281
00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 2: just I don't get it, and I don't understand why

282
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 2: they're not making the calls. And look, maybe it's because

283
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 2: the three officials and one official is perhaps waiting for

284
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 2: the other official to make that goal in his zone.

285
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think officiating was better than that too,

286
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 2: I really do well.

287
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: I generally will not complain about officiating in any sport

288
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 1: unless there's procedural issues, which you know, unfortunately happen and

289
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: sometimes in sports, so I don't really know, Like I

290
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: don't know, you know, day to day to day like

291
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 1: play to play, foul calls and whatnot. The one thing

292
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: I will I will always digging officials for is I

293
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 1: think when they're kind of out of control with the

294
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: way they enforce like taunting things like that, like and

295
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 1: just kind of game answering things you can't throw out.

296
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: You can't throw out shrewd for what you threw them

297
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: out for on Game six, Like that's not acceptable. He

298
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: said a mean a mean word to Dreamark, Like how

299
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: are you Why are you throwing out a player in

300
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: in a game six for saying something mean to another player?

301
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: Like what are we doing? You can't do that, especially

302
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: when Draymon Green but the ball in his face. Those

303
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: things bother me more than just like, oh, they didn't

304
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: call foul here. It's the procedural things, like you cannot

305
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: throw someone out in the situation unless they I don't

306
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: even know what they could have said to where you

307
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: threw them out. You can't do things like that that.

308
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: The games cannot be officiated that way. Yet, individual plays

309
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,200

00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 4: explain this to me. We celebrated this week the NFL

332
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 4: schedule release and something baseball, the.

333
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: NBA, hockey. I don't care what the sport is. No

334
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 2: one could do it, but the NFL, I got it.

335
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 2: Why the excitement? I was excited for sure, I guess

336
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: because there's no real winners or losers. It's all about hope.

337
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: That's pets. But people go crazy OVID a schedule release.

338
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: Okay, you you mentioned it right. It's the hope, right,

339
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 1: it's the hope. It's the It's the the only sport

340
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: where legitimately a majority of fans believe their team can

341
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. And when you make the playoffs the NFL,

342
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: you have a chance to win a Super Bowl. Right

343
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: there is there is the not the most parody because hockey,

344
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: I mean hockey, I think is the most where you

345
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: see that the most one seeds lose and obviously not

346
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: a great year to make this argument when the NBA

347
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: has a one seed lose. But you know the teams

348
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,400
Speaker 1: that are left right now in the n b A

349
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: are the Heats, who have a bunch of championships, Boston,

350
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: the Lakers, and and and the Nuggets, right and then

351
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 1: the Sixers obviously who haven't won a while. But I

352
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: don't thin anyone expects them to win a championship. In

353
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: the NFL, you get in the playoffs, you have a

354
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: chance to win a super Bowl, right we we we

355
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: know that they're there. It's been ingrained in our in

356
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: our in our hearts. If you're a fan in the NFL,

357
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: you look at the schedule and you can think to yourself, Okay,

358
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: here's a win. Here's a loss. Here's a win, here's

359
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 1: a loss. If we do this, we're in if we

360
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: can win these These games were in also because of

361
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: the primetime factor of oh we have a Thursday night game,

362
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: go a Saurday night game. We got a Monday night game? Oh,

363
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 1: or national television. That must mean the NFL really likes us. Right,

364
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 1: you're you're a Bengals fan, I believe correct, Yes, Okay,

365
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: I'm a Chiefs fan. I want to see where the

366
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: Bengals play the Chiefs. It's December thirty. First, I believe

367
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: it's New Year's Eve. So like for me, I'm like, okay,

368
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 1: well that's a week seventeen game. Like the Chiefs. You

369
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: know that game could be for the one seed, right,

370
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 1: Like there seems to look forward to on the NFL

371
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: calendar because of the amount of inventory, which is only

372
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,920
Speaker 1: seventeen games, and understanding how the flow of things work.

373
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: I think that's what makes it so fun is you

374
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 1: know obviously who you're playing now as a matter of

375
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 1: when you're playing. And for example, I wrote, I did

376
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: a preview prediction for the AFC West on Fox Sports.

377
00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: You go check out Fox sports dot com for all

378
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 1: Day West teams, and you know, I did the Chiefs first, right,

379
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 1: And I just looked at who they're playing home and

380
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: away before the schedule came out, and I penciled in

381
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: woods and losses. Okay, I'm at thirteen and four, and

382
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: then I did some research on their history with Patrick

383
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: Mahomes and the schedule, like when they win, when they lose,

384
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: so they lose the majority of their games in October, right,

385
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 1: they start fast to Pleae September, they lose in October,

386
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,440
Speaker 1: and then down the stretch, you're really good? How about this?

387
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: Andy Patrick Mahomes has started forty three games in November, December,

388
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: and January. The Chiefs are thirty seven and six in

389
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 1: those games, thirty seven and six in five seasons. Three

390
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: of those losses were in twenty eighteen, its first year

391
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: as a starter, one was against the Titans in twenty nineteen,

392
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: and then the last two are against the Bengals in

393
00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: twenty one and twenty two. So when you handing ca

394
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: the schedule for the Chiefs, like I had them moving

395
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: to the Eagles for example, before the schedule came out, Denk.

396
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: Then it comes out they play the Eagles after their bye,

397
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm giving them a win. They always went after their

398
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 1: by so like that, That to me is the importance

399
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: of the schedule, right you see? Like, Okay, I know

400
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 1: people made a lot of noise about Jacksonville because Jacksonville

401
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: has not many hard teams they play and they're very

402
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 1: spaced out, so they don't really have back to back

403
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,479
Speaker 1: games against elite quarterbacks. Okay, does that change the way

404
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 1: you feel about them? You look at a team with

405
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 1: the Giants, they play seven of their first nine games

406
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: on the road. So that's a team you're like, well,

407
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 1: you know, probably gonna start a little bit slower than

408
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: we think. Is that team that you know that that's

409
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 1: a hot team over the back half of the season.

410
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: So that to me are takeaways that you can take

411
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 1: from the schedule. And it's the hope, right, And it's

412
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: the hope. It's like, oh my team has this, dude,

413
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 1: we're doing this, We're doing that, Like we can we

414
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: win here, we win this game. We like to me,

415
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: it's all about that, and so that's that makes it

416
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 1: a lot of fun.

417
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,679
Speaker 2: And you talk about the prime time games. You got

418
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 2: four Super Bowl hopeful teams will given the maximum six

419
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 2: prime time games. The Chiefs, charges Bills, the Cowboy. Why

420
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:08,920
Speaker 2: are the Cowboys get six prime time games?

421
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: Because everyone watches them play and everyone watches them play.

422
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 2: That's what shocked a little bit.

423
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 1: No, really, I've gotten over that part of it. You know,

424
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,959
Speaker 1: the Bills I think have five primetime game. I mean

425
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: the Jets have five, I believe, and doctor Jets for

426
00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 1: are a good example of a team who is they

427
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: got They got Bills, Cowboys, Patriots, Chiefs. To start, it's

428
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: a tough it's a tough four game stretch when you're

429
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: sort of brand new.

430
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 2: When you get a quarterback, and.

431
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 1: So that again, this is the to me that that's

432
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,360
Speaker 1: the fun of the schedule is these little things right here,

433
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: these little kind of scheduling courts. How much your teams travel,

434
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,239
Speaker 1: Like if you have back to back road games, are

435
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: you flying to the West coast and staying there? Are

436
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: you finding the East coast and staying there? You know,

437
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: Jacksonville's two straight games in London. So it's little things

438
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: like that. I think they make this important to know

439
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 1: when's your by. The Chargers have a week five bye.

440
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: I believe that's super early. Like that's all things where

441
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: you're like, well, does that change the way I view

442
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: the back half of the schedule When they don't have

443
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 1: a break, they don't get a break from week five

444
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 1: until week eighteen. That's a lot of football in a

445
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: row without having a break.

446
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 2: Now, it's funny you said that when you look at

447
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: the schedule, you're picking what teams you know, with their

448
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 2: record if they win and lose. As a player, did

449
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 2: you do the same thing. No, here's what we do

450
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 2: players do.

451
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: Though, here's in college football, you cann college football, Remember

452
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 1: before the season, I'd be like, Okay, these are eight

453
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: games that we're going to win for sure, and you're

454
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: probably gonna win those games. Right, It's much easier in college.

455
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: The NFL you never do that. You just can't do that.

456
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: It's too hard every Sunday and you know, any given Sunday, Right,

457
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 1: what players look at first as the bye week? When's

458
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 1: the bye week? Because you know obviously, like to me,

459
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 1: I prefer to have a bye week kind of week,

460
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: you know, eight, nine, ten, eleven, right, kind of right

461
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: in the middle of the season, and you come off

462
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: of camp, you start your season, and then right in

463
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 1: the middle you have a break. And it's not even

464
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: the physical break, guys, it's a mental break. It's being

465
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: able to be like, you know what, Okay, I'm just

466
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: gonna get away from football. When I got older and

467
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: the CBA change, we got like the full week off,

468
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: basically I would just leave the country. Man. I went

469
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: to the Bahamas, once I went to Kekos. Well, I'm

470
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: just getting away. I'm taking that mental week off, not

471
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: thinking about football, and then coming back we'refreshed ready for

472
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,199
Speaker 1: the rest of the season. So you're you're looking at that. Secondly,

473
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,400
Speaker 1: you're looking at a Walting vein for Thursday at football,

474
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,879
Speaker 1: because then you get a mini mini weekend off. So

475
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: I preferred Thursday football like week two through four through five,

476
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: somewhere early in the season, get a little mini by

477
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: that weekend the bye week later in the year. My brother,

478
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 1: for example, he wanted his Thursday game like later this

479
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: season because he actually he did. That's what he liked. Okay,

480
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 1: So and then you look at at primetime games. Primetime

481
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: games are are the ones where your friends and family

482
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: are most often going to watch, right, because they're on

483
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: network television most likely right, NBC, Uh, you know, ABC, ABC, ESPN,

484
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: you know, I guess now it's Amazon Prime, which most

485
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: people have are gonna end up having Amazon Prime by now.

486
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 1: And those are games where everyone's gonna watch, friends and

487
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: family are going to watch. So what are those games? Yeah?

488
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 1: Those are often the better teams you're playing too, right,

489
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: So you want to you want to highlight that. And

490
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: then it kind of gets individual like I would look

491
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: for cold weather games. I grew up in Los Angeles, Andy.

492
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 1: I wanted to play in the snow. I want to

493
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: be like, Okay, this is a snow, this is a

494
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 1: snow game. Possibly most players don't want and don't let

495
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: the cold. I didn't like the cold, but you know,

496
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: you look for cold weather games. Okay, what are my

497
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: cold weather games? And then you look at things like,

498
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: you know, the personal games, whether it's a revenge game,

499
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 1: your old team you're playing. You know, for me it

500
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: was okay, am I playing my brother this year? Things

501
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: like that. So but everyone will tell every player would

502
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 1: tell you bye week first. You're looking for bye week first.

503
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 2: You know it's great. The prime time games are great,

504
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 2: and they're great for the fans, and obviously you say,

505
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 2: everybody's watching. But if I'm a player, I'm not so

506
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 2: certain I want to play primetime. Okay, well my opponents

507
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 2: are watching The John Show everybody.

508
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: And here's why. Here's why players don't like them. And

509
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: this is why. Also the older you get, the more

510
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: you realize this. When I was young, I was a

511
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: primetime game.

512
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 4: Yay.

513
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: The night games, they they especially when you're on the road, man,

514
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: they they could wreck like the next two or three days.

515
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: You know you're flying, you know, I wasn't. The Giants

516
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: always played the Cowboys in primetime, right, And when I

517
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: was in New York. We played them during you know,

518
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: at night. So you go to Dallas, you play night

519
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: game in the NFL. You fly immediately back after the game,

520
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: and so you know, the game ends at eleven thirty Eastern,

521
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 1: so they are ten thirty Central, and by the time

522
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: you get on the plane and you get back, it's

523
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: four o'clock in the morning, five o'clock in the morning.

524
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 1: And then you go immediately home. You sleep for a

525
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 1: little bit, come back to the facility on Monday, do

526
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: what you gotta do Monday, like you just and then

527
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: your tire Tuesday. It's just it's a a lot of

528
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 1: It takes a lot out of you to make those

529
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 1: trips for the away team. The home team is not bad,

530
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 1: like you're home, I'm home by midnight whatever, you know.

531
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: But like those one o'clock games are great, man. I

532
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: mean I was in Kansas City playing noon central games.

533
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: I mean I'm back in my house by four thirty's

534
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: like you wake up and wake up, you play and

535
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: you go home, like it's perfect. I mean, you can't

536
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: say this here only has two games that are at

537
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: at the twelfth central of the one eastern time, so

538
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 1: you know it, Uh, players don't necessarily like prime time.

539
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: I like them because again, like I just it was cool,

540
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: like it's a night it's a it's a nighttime game,

541
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: like lights are on, you're in primetime, you're playing a

542
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: good team, but playing those away games on the road

543
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 1: or just brutal.

544
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 2: I bet he's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Andy Furman. This is

548
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 2: But first, Kevin, We'll sorry a little lad with all

549
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 2: the sports.

550
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 5: Oh, no worries. Just the big news of the weekend

551
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 5: the Phoenix Suns firing head coach Monny Williams. They lost

552
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,679
Speaker 5: to the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinals. He

553
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,439
Speaker 5: had an impressive six to twenty eight winning percentage in

554
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 5: the regular season across four years in Phoenix, and he

555
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,959
Speaker 5: was coach of the Year. It's season ago after they

556
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 5: went a franchise record sixty four and eighteen, and he

557
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 5: took them to the NBA Finals in twenty twenty one,

558
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 5: where they lost to the Milwaukee Bucks. So he does

559
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 5: figure to be a hot coaching candidate. As we progress

596
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 2: I'll talk about the NFL Players Association. They are now

597
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 2: investigating an agent, David Canton. Do you know David Cant.

598
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've heard of them.

599
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 1: I mean I know who he is, yes, okay, yeah.

600
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 2: Allegations that he tried to offer the use of his

601
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 2: vacation properties in exchange for teams to select his clients

602
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 2: in the twenty twenty three NFL draft. I mean, come on, really,

603
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 2: is that going to be an incentive for a personnel

604
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 2: guy or a team owner to draft a guy?

605
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, no, absolutely not. Of course. You know,

606
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: sometimes I wonder and I'm a pretty I'm a good tissue.

607
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: I don't get in trouble. I just don't. And then

608
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: as a kid, I don't know how. I just don't.

609
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. That's just who I am. So I

610
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: don't have the appetite for some of the risk of

611
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: getting in trouble. And I don't understand the purpose of this,

612
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: Like what what why?

613
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 2: Why?

614
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 1: Why? What's like? Why would you risk your career and

615
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: your reputation over this like that? I don't I don't

616
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: get it.

617
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 2: What future players who want to work with this guy

618
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 2: was a crook?

619
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: But yeah, I just NFL personnel director is not gonna

620
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: be like, well, I was gonna draft Jeff Schwartz in

621
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 1: seventh round, but but I can use the vacation home

622
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: in July, so I'm gonna take someone else. I don't

623
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: have the appetite for that rest of my life. I

624
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: don't know what you would do that. It does not

625
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 1: make sense to me.

626
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 2: I don't get it either, I really don't. I read

627
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 2: this story, I was shocked. And he's got some pretty

628
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 2: decent clients on his roster, Yeah he really does.

629
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: And yeah, Eric Weddle, by the way, who you know

630
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: be a Hall of Famer and safety I don't And

631
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: I guess he if you look to read the article. Yes,

632
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 1: he had some other things in the past that he's done.

633
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,239
Speaker 1: I want to know who. I want to know who

634
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: told on him. He's not NFL person, not right, So

635
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: probably another agent heard that this was happening and reporting him.

636
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: And I don't think that a team would would report

637
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:19,719
Speaker 1: him for this.

638
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 2: But and that's the story. I mean, really, the story

639
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,720
Speaker 2: hasn't so much that he's offering his vacation. The story

640
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 2: is who's the snitch? That's another agent.

641
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: It's another agent, And I just again, I don't have

642
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 1: the appetite for that type of risk in my life.

643
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 1: I don't know why you would do that, Like, why

644
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: would you lose a career over something as dumb as that?

645
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: In Yeah, this was also too you know agents, My

646
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: agent was not like this at all. That's so I

647
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 1: always appreciated my agent. They never he never told me

648
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 1: and promised anything to me, and they never were like,

649
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: you're going to be an X round draft pick. They said, hey, man,

650
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: think I think you're going the fourth to sixth round.

651
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: I'm not certain, but this is where like I think

652
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 1: you're going to go. I won the seventh round. But

653
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: when you this feels like an agent who made promises

654
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: to players you're going an X round and he's desperate

655
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 1: to make sure that that happens because otherwise, like, again,

656
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: what is the point of the like really, like, what

657
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: is the what is the point of doing this?

658
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 2: Right?

659
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: That's yeah, that sounds like an agent that just made

660
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: promises that he couldn't deliver on.

661
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 2: Interesting. You know, I got a question on the Chicago Bears.

662
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 2: Here's a team that finished three and fourteen, dead last

663
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 2: in the NFL. They got the number one pick in

664
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 2: the draft, and the Bears right now is scheduled for

665
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 2: at least four night games in and in front of

666
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 2: the national audies. How does that happen inside Chicago?

667
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: Maybe probably probably the market, But I think fields, you know,

668
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: I think there's there's a there's some excitement for fields, right,

669
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: and that's probably part of it. The Marcus size obviously

670
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: is important as well, but also sometimes just the opponent,

671
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 1: like who they playing right, like who they playing that

672
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: you know that. I think the Commanders is one of them.

673
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: On Thursday Night football, sometimes just the opponent who they're

674
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: playing is at being the primetime game. So I'm not

675
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: surprised that big market team a lot of expectations for

676
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: fields in the year two. It doesn't surprise me.

677
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 2: And what about the Lions. Everybody's hyping up on the

678
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 2: Lions right now playing on Thursday Night, the Detroit Lions, and.

679
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 1: They're the favorite to win the NFC North. I believe

680
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: at the moment, you know, they play the Chiefs in

681
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: the worst possible time Game one, No doubt, the Chiefs

682
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: are averaging.

683
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 2: I ask you this, Maybe it's the best possible time.

684
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 2: They lose Orlando Brown on the offensive line. It may

685
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 2: take time for the Chiefs to get that offensive line settled.

686
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 2: No yues.

687
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,200
Speaker 1: The Chiefs are averaging thirty seven point eight points a game,

688
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 1: and the five week one starts to Pat Mahomes has

689
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: made you don't want to play the Chiefs week one,

690
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: So I yeah, I would not ever sign on for that.

691
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: So I think that's probably not the spot you want

692
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 1: to be in.

693
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was really shoy. I thought the Chiefs

694
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 2: would be playing maybe the Eagles or the forty nine

695
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 2: ers on that Thursday game.

696
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: No, see, I never thought the Chiefs. The NFL wants

697
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 1: the champion to win that Thursday night game. They wanted

698
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: to be competitive, but the champion wins. And so I

699
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: never bought the Bengals in that spot. Eagles in that spot.

700
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: This makes perfect sense. Their favoritebody touchdown first of all.

701
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: And you know the Lions team is feisty, they're very talented.

702
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: But in the end, the Chiefs are gonna win. That's

703
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: what the NFL wants from that game.

704
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 2: I hear you, all right. He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Andy Furman.

719
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: What?

00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 2: Any levels? Oh, let's let's go college. Let's go college. No, really, no,

721
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 2: I'm shocked.

722
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 1: Like what do you mean by like break? Like? I like, well, I.

723
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 2: Mean let you slide. If you had to do a paper,

724
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 2: make a do you could be laid on a payment?

725
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:29,879
Speaker 1: No?

726
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 2: Really?

727
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: Yeah? No?

728
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 2: Did you have any professors that even asked you for

729
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,320
Speaker 2: tickets for games?

730
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 1: No? I did one time when I was at SO,

731
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: I had I my last year in organ I had

732
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: already walked in graduation from a major that summer, and

733
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 1: so I needed to I just needed three I had

734
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 1: three classes left, three credits left. I needed three twelve credits,

735
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 1: three classes left. My senior my senior year in the

736
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 1: in the fall, and I had a a music one

737
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,720
Speaker 1: O one class. It was at eight am on Monday morning. Okay,

738
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm not going to that class, And so I I

739
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: went to the first day. It was legit. The first

740
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: it was just a bunch of freshmen in me and

741
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 1: these freshman Andy. It was so cute. It was their

742
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 1: first like their first day of class. I showed up

743
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: at eight am, Like I remember, they all had like

744
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 1: their pens and pencils perfectly laid out and their fold.

745
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: I just rolled up with like eating a bagel with

746
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: my headphones on. And I told the professor that I

747
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: was not coming to class. I would do all the work,

748
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 1: I would do all the tests, but I'm just trying

749
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: to get a C so I can like just be

750
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,799
Speaker 1: done with college basically. And I did what I told

751
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: him I was gonna do. I did old test, did

752
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,600
Speaker 1: all the work, and I got a seat. And I

753
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 1: don't know if he gave. It's just what I got.

754
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's all I was done, man, I finished.

755
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: I already watched a graduation. I wasn't trying to like

756
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,720
Speaker 1: to get like a music I'm not a music person,

757
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 1: Like I don't know nothing about music, and I didn't

758
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 1: interest me at all. It just was like class, easiest

759
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: class to take at that time.

760
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 2: All right, now, sticking with the University of Oregon, what

761
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 2: was the toughest subject you took at Oregon.

762
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: I took a game theory class. It's like a five

763
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: hundred level game theory class, and we took it during

764
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: the summer. It was so hard. The professor let the

765
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 1: entire class have open note, like open book all the

766
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 1: tests because it's so ridiculously hard. I don't know, we

767
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 1: know why we were in that class, like a five

768
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,800
Speaker 1: hundred level game theory class. Silly?

769
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 2: Well, other football players? Are they with you?

770
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 1: There were other football players? Yeah? Wow?

771
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 2: All right. Now, as an athlete, got to ask it is, now,

772
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 2: how is the social life of Oregon?

773
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: I think I read like I read there's school.

00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 2: Fine, how was you?

775
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 1: How is your the Probably the thing with Orgon is

776
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: that like it's just it's just like it rains a lot,

777
00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:00,840
Speaker 1: so like from November to March. It's just all the

778
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 1: time and kind of like just it kind of hurts

779
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 1: night life. But like that with so much rain.

780
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 2: So it wasn't it wasn't that. It wasn't that great.

781
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 2: It wasn't that great.

782
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not as great as like Arizona State, like

783
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: it's you know, like Florida. Yeah, like it was fine.

784
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, okay, now, no, I have a new

785
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 2: respect for athletes in the surgeries. As you know, I

786
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 2: had that hip surgery on Tuesday. I got to ask you,

787
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 2: you've had those numerous back surgeries, how tough is it?

788
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 2: And is there ever a thought after the surgery say,

789
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 2: why am I doing this? I'm gonna pack it in.

790
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: So if I had ten surgeries in my life, yeah,

791
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: seven seven from football. No, you actually feel good because

792
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,479
Speaker 1: you're in here, here on your pain meds in twenty

793
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: four hours, You're fine. The one thing that I did,

794
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: I got off my paid minutes in like immediately, like

795
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: I tried to get off as soon as possible. My

796
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 1: sports turnias. I took payments ine just for twenty four hours.

797
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: My ankle I take a little bit longer because it

798
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: was hurting a little bit after surgery. I mean, yeah,

799
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: it's not fun. I had back surgery in college and

800
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: the NFL. I had both my hips done sport turnia,

801
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: and then I had three ankle surgeries, so fartiscating my ankle,

802
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: it's it's not fun, man. I bet I hope they

803
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 1: never have more surgeries.

804
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 2: And I ask you this is sort of a personal question.

805
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 2: I mean, you're in the NFL, you have surgery. I

806
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 2: assume the club pays for the surgery, but you're still

807
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,160
Speaker 2: in the country. You're still getting your paycheck week by week.

808
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, yes, all right, yeah.

809
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,840
Speaker 2: Okay, And now what was the uh your parents reaction

810
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 2: on all these surgeries, like, Jeff, why are you doing this?

811
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,240
Speaker 2: I told you not to play football.

812
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, my mom was very happy and I retired. I

813
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: bet I only my dad. My dad never really liked.

814
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 1: I don't never really say that. I don't think amazing

815
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: because I accepted it as part of the deal.

816
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 2: The toughest surgeon, I gotta say. I would think the

817
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,359
Speaker 2: back would be the toughest. You lay up on your back, right,

818
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:10,320
Speaker 2: that would.

819
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: Be the The ankle was the one that hurt the

820
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:18,359
Speaker 1: bus afterwards, really, and that was I blew my ankle up, man,

821
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 1: I tore my blew my deltoyd out. I fractured my

822
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 1: my leg like it was. It was. It was tough.

823
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 2: And that was an NFL game.

824
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, giants, So you're out on the cart.

825
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 2: They took it out on the cart on that one.

826
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,399
Speaker 1: Huh yes, oh that was that was? That was that

827
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: one sucked. The back was fire. The back was fine

828
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 1: because it took away my pain, my nerve pain went away.

829
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 1: It was great.

830
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:46,799
Speaker 2: Wow. I couldn't imagine really then do do players come

831
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 2: visit you in the hospital? Your teammates so.

832
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: No, no, you know you're not there very long.

833
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm just amazing. I'm just the stories you hear

834
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,359

Speaker 4: way tire buying should be. This is disgusting.

857
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 2: This is a direct correlation to gambling, I believe, and

858
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 2: maybe you can set me straight on this. Now. I'll

859
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 2: talk about the NBA and talking about the New York

860
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 2: Knicks who were eliminated by the Miami Heat in Game

861
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 2: six of the Eastern Conference semi Finals the other night.

862
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 2: And the Nick fans are not happy with Julius Randall, okay,

863
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 2: and they took that out on his likeness. This is

864
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 2: what they did. After Randall finished with fifteen points on

865
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,800
Speaker 2: three for fourteen, shooting one to seven from three point range,

866
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: the New York fans slammed literally and figuratively, the two

867
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 2: time All Star and All NBA forward. A group of

868
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 2: Nick fans stomped on a Randall poster as they exited

869
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 2: Madison Square Garden that had a watch party following the

870
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 2: Laws on Friday night. The same poster had the words

871
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 2: trade me spray painted over Randall's face before the incident.

872
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 2: I think it's disgusting, and I think a lot has

873
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 2: to do with gambling. What do you think, No, I

874
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 2: don't think.

875
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: It's good gamble. I think it has to do with

876
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: fans being looker it up and being dumb, like I

877
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 1: don't really like I mean, the any major on the Knicks,

878
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, but their Knicks fans, they're probably just

879
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: upset that Randall did not play as well as he

880
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 1: did in the regular season. And then also when you

881
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 1: have big media personalities calling out Julius Randall and saying

882
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: he needs to be traded, the fans buy into that, right,

883
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,640
Speaker 1: you know, Steven A. Smith has been very vocal about

884
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,879
Speaker 1: getting rid of Julius Randall. When you have someone over

885
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 1: the national stage like that saying get rid of a player, well,

886
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: the fans are going to take that and wrong with it.

887
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,560
Speaker 1: And so they're just taking their cues from people in

888
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 1: the media who are calling for the same thing. I

889
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: don't think that's saying it. With wagering, I mean, yeah,

890
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 1: I think that, you know that. I would imagine, you know,

891
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: maybe Knicks fans wager some money on the Knicks, but

892
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: I don't think it's it's much to wear. You know,

893
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 1: you you make that big of a deal.

894
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 2: Afterwards, Apparently, during a game back in January of twenty

895
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 2: twenty two, Julius Randall gave the nick fans a thumbs

896
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 2: down gesture, and he said later that the jester was

897
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 2: to shut the f up.

898
00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 1: I think players have gotten a little too sensitive when

899
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: it comes to fan reaction to their play now. I

900
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 1: believe it's because of social media and you know, the

901
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:39,759
Speaker 1: constant I would imagine harassment of players and telling them

902
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: how much they stink and how much they don't like

903
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: them and what not. So I understand very much players

904
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 1: in the social media aspect of things, but I think

905
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 1: that like I still think that like just just just

906
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 1: let it go random, like there's no thumbs down, like,

907
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: come on, man. So I think that's I think I

908
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: think you have got a little too extensive about it.

909
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 1: But I also understand that there's a lot more noise

910
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: than ever used to be now when it comes to

911
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: two uh uh players and fan interactions. It's not to

912
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 1: be that way, right. The only time you talked to

913
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,399
Speaker 1: fans was when you when you were at a game

914
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: possibly or when you saw someone saw you public other worse,

915
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 1: you know, now people get barraged with tweets all the time,

916
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: but how.

917
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 2: Much they suck and there's some place I can't handle it.

918
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,839
Speaker 2: One of was Kevin Durant. I mean, he just really

919
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 2: can't handle it.

920
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 1: Well. I give d Ran credit because he just goes.

921
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: He just he ditches Bernard account now, man, he just

922
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: tweets the throat. I actually respect him for doing it

923
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: like that.

924
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 2: You know, I have to believe, and maybe I'm way

925
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 2: off based on this, that there's got to be some

926
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 2: coach or some director on some ball club, probably in

927
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,720
Speaker 2: the NBA more so than any other sport, that would

928
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 2: sit down with this with the team and just tell him,

929
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 2: you know, things to do on social media and things

930
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 2: not to do.

931
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 1: Of course, of course there is, but yeah, but it's

932
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant, you know, it was those guys.

933
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 2: It's amazing, it really is. And now you speak of

934
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 2: social media. Julius Reynold got it again from former NBA

935
00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 2: All Star Kenyan Martin. He criticized him on social media

936
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:10,799
Speaker 2: and I think he was doing a podcast and it

937
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:15,320
Speaker 2: wasn't for his play, it was his displeasure. Bis Randall

938
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,799
Speaker 2: was kissing his wife Kendra following the season saving win

939
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 2: that one twelve one oh three win, which he finished

940
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 2: with twenty four points, five rebounds, five assists, and he

941
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 2: shot seven for thirteen. He kissed his wife and Kmart

942
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 2: Kevin Kenyan Martin wasn't here for which he outlined, and

943
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: he said that it bothered me. He said that just

944
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,920
Speaker 2: got playing a hard fourth game in the playoff series,

945
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:38,760
Speaker 2: and the first thing you do is go kiss your wife.

946
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 2: That's the first thing you do. He asked, where's your

947
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,319
Speaker 2: mind that? I mean, it was the very first thing

948
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 2: you did. Dog when the game was over, So he

949
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:47,799
Speaker 2: said that he told his wife and he saw that.

950
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,920
Speaker 2: He said, I wouldn't be kissing you if we won,

951
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 2: and I'm going there and I love you to death,

952
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,759
Speaker 2: he said, but ain't no way in that instant I'm

953
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 2: going to be with my guys because we just got

954
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 2: done winning. I'm not even thinking about you.

955
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: So it is it's and it's hard for me at

956
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: times to see athletes doing things different than what things

957
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,279
Speaker 1: we did. Right like that, He came on as right,

958
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 1: there was no chance that anyone in his generation was

959
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 1: ever doing that, right, yeah, and it really my I

960
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 1: mean my generation of football. But you know, guys I

961
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: played with, they don't do that either, right, just not

962
00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 1: after a game. It's just different now, man, Like that's guys,

963
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: you know they that's how it maybe and maybe players

964
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 1: always wanted to do that after a game, so see

965
00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: their family member immediately and give them a kiss and

966
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 1: give them a hug and say hi to them. And

967
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,680
Speaker 1: it wasn't quote unquote allowed, right, it wasn't looked upon

968
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:48,279
Speaker 1: as something that we should do after a game. I

969
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 1: have more of an issue with players like smiling after

970
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,319
Speaker 1: like and like hugging up their opponents than I do

971
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,440
Speaker 1: that like that whatever matter, he MutS, give his wife

972
00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:58,759
Speaker 1: a kiss, like, let him do that.

973
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,319
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't think the worst I have as a

974
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 2: baseball players posing after a home run.

975
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:07,400
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's just because that's your age. Man. No

976
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 1: one here, like forty cares anymore about that. Let baseball play.

977
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 1: Let him have emotion, Andy, let him show emotion.

978
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,879
Speaker 2: Let him wait, does it difference between emotion just being

979
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 2: a Bragget.

980
00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:24,160
Speaker 1: Let him, let him brag, Let him have fun in baseball. No,

981
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,200
Speaker 1: but like after you after the game the Warriors game, right,

982
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: there was a clip of Stephen Clay being like miserable

983
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 1: on the sidelines, okay, on the bench, right, and there's

984
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,760
Speaker 1: a video of Draymond Green immediately like smiling and giving

985
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:40,000
Speaker 1: and given Lebron a hug, Like that bothers me more

986
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,800
Speaker 1: than Julie Road kissing his wife after a game, Like, dude,

987
00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,120
Speaker 1: you just lost the game. You just lost the playoff series.

988
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: Can we just like not smile your way through it?

989
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 1: We like look a little bit upset about it.

990
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you on that.

991
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 1: That bothers me more than than does the kissing your

992
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,399
Speaker 1: wife after a game? Like whatever, Man, he won't give

993
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 1: his wife a kiss? I okay, let him do that?

994
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,239
Speaker 1: Does does king imoton think like he's thinking about like

995
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,640
Speaker 1: like taking her home, Like I think he's just giving

996
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,479
Speaker 1: his wife a kiss, like a big deal.

997
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:10,920
Speaker 2: Like I don't don't understand that. I thought it was

998
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 2: kind of crazy, honestly, I mean, what's wrong I want

999
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 2: to kiss his teammates. I mean, he kiss his wife,

1000
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 2: he's happy, and they'll go celebrate with the fellas in

1001
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:18,359
Speaker 2: the locker room.

1002
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:21,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. I thought that was that's odd good, that's it

1003
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: sounds like someone who just doesn't like him as a

1004
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,359
Speaker 1: player and just us this another reason to go after

1005
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: him as a player, which I think, like like watching

1006
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:30,320
Speaker 1: Randall play. I know he made a bunch of threes

1007
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: this season, but it's like, are you really like you're

1008
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: down a couple of points into the game? Step, you know, step,

1009
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 1: step back, fade away, three pointer. I'm like, is that really?

1010
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: What's just like, is that really the best shot you

1011
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,560
Speaker 1: can get for a player of your stature and your

1012
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 1: size and your ability, Like, that's a bit, it's a

1013
00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 1: it's a it's the best we can do.

1014
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 2: Underneath, mix it up, underneath, that's your game.

1015
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,399
Speaker 1: Come on, So I that to me bothers me more

1016
00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: than who he kisses after a game.

1017
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 2: Who kicks You've got to be really happy, maybe even

1018
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 2: somewhat surprise that the Lakers eliminating the Warriors, and that's

1019
00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 2: just game series. He advanced to the West Finals and

1020
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:09,759
Speaker 2: playing in Denver on Tuesday, which is a good thing

1021
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 2: because a couple of more days for Lebron to rest.

1022
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:16,239
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, look a d and Lebron have stayed healthy together, right,

1023
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 1: and that's always been the problem with them. But able

1024
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: to stay healthy together and for the first time in

1025
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: their relationship, and you know, the bubble, I guess you

1026
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: can claim was sort of this way. You know, they

1027
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:33,280
Speaker 1: have Anthony Davis has finally taking the role of number

1028
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,279
Speaker 1: one player now, number one player at night in the

1029
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 1: night out now and we saw Lebron when he wants

1030
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: to be the number one guy. Can still do it,

1031
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 1: you know, every now and then. But he's thirty eight

1032
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 1: man like he's load managing during games, which is I

1033
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:49,759
Speaker 1: think it's smart of him. And when those two guys

1034
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:52,359
Speaker 1: are healthy, you know, a d is a top five

1035
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:54,319
Speaker 1: seven player in the NBA, right Like, he's one of

1036
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:58,280
Speaker 1: those dudes. So if he plays his ability, stays healthy,

1037
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: they intend to win. Austin Reeves has really stepped up

1038
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 1: as their third scoring option, and then you know, the

1039
00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:07,400
Speaker 1: Lakers have enough guys for that fourth and fifth option

1040
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,919
Speaker 1: every game. It could be a Rustle, it could be

1041
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 1: you know, Lannie Walker, Hocha. More like, there's enough players

1042
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 1: where the options are available for scoring and they play

1043
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: good defense, so you know, partly that's with a d size,

1044
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: and but they're long everywhere right there. The Lakers just

1045
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:32,480
Speaker 1: long in every position and that really gives them opportunity

1046
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,319
Speaker 1: to win every game. The dever is gonna be hard, right,

1047
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 1: you know, you're not gonna see physical, Yeah, but I

1048
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 1: think I think the Lakers can are gonna be okay

1049
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 1: in that? You know? In that regard, it's it to me,

1050
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:49,360
Speaker 1: it's the Denver is gonna score. It's can the Lakers

1051
00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: shoot well enough throughout the entire series to keep obviously

1052
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 1: win four games? And how much energy does Lebron have

1053
00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 1: to have to exert? Can Ad stay healthy against Joker?

1054
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: Just little things like that. I'm fascinated to watch. Man.

1055
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,320
Speaker 1: I think this is, you know, the best case scenario

1056
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,440
Speaker 1: for the Lakers, you know, is obviously the health of

1057
00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:11,800
Speaker 1: Davis and all staying healthy.

1058
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,640
Speaker 2: But it's crazy because you had the fans, the fan

1059
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,800
Speaker 2: base in LA. They're ready to fire the coach, to

1060
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,879
Speaker 2: bury the team, get rid of Lebron. And then I'm

1061
00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 2: watching the Dodger game. I think it was Friday night.

1062
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 2: They had the fans on the field applauding the Lakers.

1063
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 2: They let the fans on the field after the Dodger game.

1064
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 2: It's unbelieved. So so now everybody's in. They're all in

1065
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 2: in LA for the Lakers right now. And I guess

1066
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:35,640
Speaker 2: I guess that's the way it is with fan the

1067
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,319
Speaker 2: fan bases and any sport in any city. I'm sure

1068
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 2: that's the way it is.

1069
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 1: It is. You know, Los Angeles is a is a

1070
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 1: very front runner of town when it comes to sports.

1071
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,160
Speaker 1: If you are good, the fans are going to be there.

1072
00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 1: They'll support you. I'm Lakers obviously. You know they're they're

1073
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 1: undefeated home in the playoffs. It's a hard place to play.

1074
00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,919
Speaker 1: The fans are into it, they're excited. The environment's really

1075
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: cool at Staple Set, the way they do the lighting

1076
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:02,959
Speaker 1: and stuff. I thin it's the only arena that still

1077
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: does this. They they when the game is on, when

1078
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,520
Speaker 1: the game is being played, the lights, the only lights

1079
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 1: that are on are over the court, Like all the

1080
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,360
Speaker 1: lights that are there, they turn them off over the fans.

1081
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 1: So you can just say, it's like being in a show.

1082
00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: It's a pretty cool environment there, the way they do it,

1083
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,919
Speaker 1: So it uh, yeah, the fans in LA are always

1084
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: going to be a little front Runners's what they are.

1085
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:25,319
Speaker 2: Well, and they got the movie still was going to

1086
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 2: the games now again ijack.

1087
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,560
Speaker 1: The people people are like, it's so weird. People get

1088
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 1: so angry about that. In Los Angeles. I saw there

1089
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: was a tweet and it is odd that a sports

1090
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:37,520
Speaker 1: account is tweeting about who showed up at a basketball game.

1091
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 1: But you know there was a there was a celebrities

1092
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:44,759
Speaker 1: showing up people. This is why we don't This is

1093
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: why no one likes Los Angeles. I'm like, what do

1094
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:48,759
Speaker 1: you want to not show up to basketball games? Like?

1095
00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 7: This is the thing they do like this has been

1096
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:53,399
Speaker 7: since the eighties, since since since since Doctor Buss took over.

1097
00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 7: This is the Laksers games have been things to do

1098
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:58,359
Speaker 7: in Los Angeles for celebrities. That was That's the way

1099
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 7: they've made the team, It's the way they market team.

1100
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 2: It's amazing. I mean it's showtime that they called it showtime, right, yes,

1101
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,359
Speaker 2: sar So, I think it's a credit to the team

1102
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,840
Speaker 2: that they could attract those people. It started a little

1103
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:12,799
Speaker 2: bit this year when the Knicks made the playoffs. You

1104
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 2: saw some Hollywood types coming to Madison Square Garden. So

1105
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,200
Speaker 2: maybe it was catching on a little bit, but uh,

1106
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,759
Speaker 2: not like La. I mean nothing like La La.

1107
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,800
Speaker 1: It is always the Lakers have always this has always

1108
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: been their thing. They've always drawn celebrities third games. And

1109
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 1: they're getting the more you win, the more you're gonna

1110
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 1: have the celebrity shown up.

1111
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 2: Right, And I got to you, I mean, you're familiar

1112
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 2: with this. How much is like a court side ticket

1113
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:37,919
Speaker 2: to watch a Laker game.

1114
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:42,360
Speaker 1: Oh, a buddy of mine told me there for the playoffs,

1115
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 1: it's like thirty five thousand dollars.

1116
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 2: It's und valius. So so Jack Nicholson's paying thirty five

1117
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 2: grand to go to a game.

1118
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 1: I mean he's seen a ticket holder. I don't know.

1119
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 1: I think this is like a secondary market purchase. I

1120
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:02,280
Speaker 1: think we're seen ticket holder. It's probably less, but ain't cheap.

1121
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:07,520
Speaker 2: I bet, I mean, I just I don't know. I mean, eventually,

1122
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:09,760
Speaker 2: do you think sports is going to like press themselves

1123
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 2: out of fans money?

1124
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:16,240
Speaker 1: I mean, so, what's it called crypto arena?

1125
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:17,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, Criso.

Speaker 1: It used to be used to be called obviously Stable Center,

1127
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 1: So LA is Stable Center is so big that you

1177
00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Rider. He's Jeff Schwartz. I'm Andy Furman,

1178
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 2: and it seems to me that winners in all sports

1179
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:20,240
Speaker 2: should be rewarded. You win the Super Bowl, I think

1180
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:22,920
Speaker 2: you should get the easiest schedule in the NFL doesn't

1181
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 2: work out that way, he really doesn't. I don't know what.

1182
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:28,320
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm maybe I'm backwards, maybe there's something wrong with me.

1183
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:31,600
Speaker 2: But you look at the Philadelphia Eagles, the raiding NFC champions.

1184
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 2: They have the toughest schedule for twenty twenty three based

1185
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 2: on the opponent's record. For the twenty twenty two season.

1186
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 2: They opened the road and the opening season on the

1187
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,800
Speaker 2: road against the Patriots. I don't understand the whole situation.

1188
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 2: Reward me. I worked hard, I won the Super Bowl

1189
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 2: on the NFC champs. I'm there. I won something, and

1190
00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 2: what do I get for it? The toughest schedule. You

1191
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,680
Speaker 2: don't want me to come back. That's what I'm looking at.

1192
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:59,240
Speaker 1: But that's what makes the NFL king, right? Is it?

1193
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:06,080
Speaker 1: Like they they're built in parody with their schedule. That

1194
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that's going It is going to happen, but

1195
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,120
Speaker 1: you know the way it works for those who are

1196
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 1: who do not know. You play your division opponents each

1197
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,680
Speaker 1: two times that's six of your games. Then you play

1198
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 1: one division in your conference of one division in the

1199
00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:25,480
Speaker 1: other conference. So that's now now you're up to twelve games, right,

1200
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 1: that's I believe that's the you know, that's correct, right.

1201
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 1: And then and then you play excuse me, up to

1202
00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 1: that's not twelve games, that's uh yeah, it's fourteen games.

1203
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 1: Then you play you typically played the other two divisions

1204
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,200
Speaker 1: in your conference that you do not play. Right. So

1205
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:45,919
Speaker 1: let's say that if you're the AFC West, you're playing

1206
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:50,200
Speaker 1: the AFC East this year. That means you play one

1207
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,360
Speaker 1: team in the North and one team in the in

1208
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 1: the South, and it corresponds with the finishing of the standing.

1209
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 1: So the Chiefs are number one, they would play again

1210
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 1: in the Bengals AFC North nonumber one team, right, and

1211
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 1: then you have one now one more crossover game with

1212
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:07,040
Speaker 1: the other conference in game seventeen, and you play again

1213
00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,520
Speaker 1: a division courts. So that's why the Eagles and Chiefs

1214
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:11,760
Speaker 1: I think play each other this year.

1215
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:13,760
Speaker 2: No, I hear what you're saying. They want to parody,

1216
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:15,800
Speaker 2: And if I had it my way, I would give

1217
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,000
Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs the number one draft pick, not

1218
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:20,640
Speaker 2: the last pick, which they won the Super Bowl. But

1219
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:22,800
Speaker 2: you know, I'm backwards, but I think that they deserve that.

1220
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,000
Speaker 2: You win, and you deserve something when you win, but

1221
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:26,960
Speaker 2: it doesn't work out that way. Look at the six

1222
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 2: game stretch that the Eagles have. They got to the

1223
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 2: only good thing to have in their schedule. They have

1224
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:34,280
Speaker 2: a buy in Week ten, so they play at the Chiefs,

1225
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,960
Speaker 2: they play the Bills on a short week. They got

1226
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,800
Speaker 2: to the forty nine ers at the Cowboys, Seahawks, Giants.

1227
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:44,160
Speaker 2: I mean, come on, that's like murder murder incorporated. They

1228
00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:46,440
Speaker 2: have no shot. I mean, and you look at injury

1229
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 2: factors as well. It's gonna be tough for the Eagles

1230
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 2: to come back and repeat, although I do think they're

1231
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,880
Speaker 2: probably the second best team in the NFC.

1232
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:58,920
Speaker 1: That is again like that is that is why the

1233
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:02,120
Speaker 1: NFL is king. They said up for hard to repeat.

1234
01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: It's like hard, That's it's the point of it, right

1235
01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 1: is you give you know, someone else another opportunity.

1236
01:00:09,080 --> 01:00:10,440
Speaker 2: It's it's great, It's just.

1237
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 1: I like it. I like that that. It makes it

1238
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:13,680
Speaker 1: tough like this, and that's why you have a team

1239
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: like Jacksonville, who you know, who doesn't have a first

1240
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:21,160
Speaker 1: place schedule. Because they finish. Assuming know, they different first place,

1241
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 1: they have a first place schedule, but they play like

1242
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 1: an easier and easier it's easier crossover games, easier divisions.

1243
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:29,880
Speaker 1: And that's again that's why you can tell the schedule

1244
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: based off of kind of you know, that's why the

1245
01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,920
Speaker 1: schedule is important to when you play teams. I think

1246
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:40,120
Speaker 1: it's really helpful for that.

1247
01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:44,680
Speaker 2: The Eagles opponents in twenty twenty three had a combined

1248
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:47,800
Speaker 2: record of one sixty and four last year.

1249
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:51,360
Speaker 1: All right, So I would say I would say that

1250
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 1: you that you that you shouldn't you shouldn't look at

1251
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 1: To me, the way look at the schedule edity is

1252
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:03,040
Speaker 1: not start with the schedule like like you are. It's

1253
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:07,360
Speaker 1: what quarterbacks do you play? Because this leaves a quarterback league.

1254
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 1: So to me, it's what it's what quarterbacks do you play,

1255
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 1: not what the schedule was last year, because obviously quarterbacks

1256
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,440
Speaker 1: changed you and we would look at Aaron Rodgers, right,

1257
01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 1: So how do you vte So if you're the Eagles

1258
01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 1: this year, you play Mac Jones, you play Kirk Cousins,

1259
01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:26,960
Speaker 1: whatever the Bucks are going to throw out there, Sam Howell,

1260
01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:30,480
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford. The first five weeks of the season should

1261
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:35,320
Speaker 1: be five to zero, right, right, then you play Aaron Rodgers, Tua,

1262
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 1: Sam Howe, Dak Prescott, Pat Mahomes. So the back half

1263
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:44,360
Speaker 1: is hard, right, it's Dak, Pat Mahomes, Josh Allen, whoever

1264
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 1: the Niners have Dak again, Gino and then you get

1265
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:49,240
Speaker 1: a break and to me, in the last three games

1266
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:52,000
Speaker 1: of the year, you get Daniel Jones whatever the Cardinals

1267
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,240
Speaker 1: threw out there, Daniel Jones. That's the way I look

1268
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 1: at the schedule is what quarterbacks do you play? Because again,

1269
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:01,360
Speaker 1: win loss record from the previous year doesn't really indicate

1270
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:04,920
Speaker 1: where the team is now because of roster movement of

1271
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:09,760
Speaker 1: the Giants last year won eight or nine games that

1272
01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,800
Speaker 1: were within one score, which simply the next year goes

1273
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,680
Speaker 1: the other direction. So how much can we take into

1274
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 1: the Yeah, they were good last year, but are they

1275
01:02:17,640 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 1: going to be as good this year? Because of things

1276
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 1: like that. That's why I look at quarterbacks. What quarterbacks

1277
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 1: are you playing? Interesting?

1278
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:25,400
Speaker 2: And you're right, because it doesn't make a difference where

1279
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,480
Speaker 2: the Jets record was a year ago. They have Aaron

1280
01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:31,120
Speaker 2: Rodgers now and the expectations, at least inside the Jets

1281
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:35,240
Speaker 2: training facility are a lot bigger and further down the

1282
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 2: road than they were a year ago. Absolutely, they have

1283
01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:38,160
Speaker 2: a quarterback.

1284
01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: Yes, we'll see that. That's why I look at things

1285
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:42,520
Speaker 1: a little bit. That's why I look at it a

1286
01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:45,880
Speaker 1: little a little differently like that.

1287
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:49,120
Speaker 2: And I think the Eagles open up in Foxboro and

1288
01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 2: that's theday the Patriots are honoring Tom Brady. Why. I

1289
01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 2: have no idea, I mean, what's the deal the I

1290
01:02:56,720 --> 01:02:59,360
Speaker 2: guess the love of ownership in New England with Tom

1291
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:02,080
Speaker 2: Brady just won't die. And I'm sure Bill Belichick's not

1292
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:02,760
Speaker 2: happy about that.

1293
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:06,520
Speaker 1: I mean, they generate fans in the seats. I don't know.

1294
01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:09,920
Speaker 1: But can Tom go there while he's the owner of

1295
01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: the Raiders? Is that allowed? He's a part owner of

1296
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 1: the Raiders.

1297
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 2: I don't think that deal has not finished yet. I

1298
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:18,040
Speaker 2: think it's still in progress. Yeah, but he owns it.

1299
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 2: He's a part owner of the women's team, right, the

1300
01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 2: w NBA Las Vegas Women's the Aces. Well, I mean,

1301
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,520
Speaker 2: what could he do? What input would he have? Do

1302
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 2: you think? And does that tell me that he's not

1303
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 2: going to do the Fox radios, Fox TV?

1304
01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 1: I think I don't know about that yet, but I

1305
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:35,200
Speaker 1: think he I think he is.

1306
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:38,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't know why he wouldn't. But

1307
01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:41,160
Speaker 2: then again, he may not want to subject himself to

1308
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 2: all the criticism because I'm sure he will get criticism

1309
01:03:44,080 --> 01:03:46,320
Speaker 2: if he doesn't be harsh on TV.

1310
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,880
Speaker 1: Well, he's gonna Yeah, that's the only part you'd worry about.

1311
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 2: Right, Well, I mean, he doesn't seem that kind of

1312
01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:58,400
Speaker 2: a guy to attack guys that he played with, and

1313
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:00,720
Speaker 2: sometimes you have to be that way to say, look,

1314
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 2: you know, he got to be doing this better or

1315
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,520
Speaker 2: doing this. I don't see Tom Brady doing that.

1316
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:15,240
Speaker 1: I uh, I probably not that happens, but obviously we'll

1317
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:19,000
Speaker 1: we'll find out. You know, the Fox thing, I think

1318
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:20,720
Speaker 1: he's gonna do it, but I mean, who knows. Man, Everyone,

1319
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 1: you know, everyone keeps having their own opinion on that.

1320
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:25,360
Speaker 2: I mean, look, he can do whatever the hell he

1321
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 2: wants to do. He doesn't have to do Fox. He

1322
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:28,800
Speaker 2: could just stay on the beach. You do what he

1323
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:30,800
Speaker 2: wants to do. I mean, fine, but he wants to

1324
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:31,960
Speaker 2: do It's fine. I think it was more of a

1325
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,960
Speaker 2: ploy on Fox's part than Brady's part. I think that

1326
01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 2: they obviously came to him. I don't think he knocked

1327
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:40,000
Speaker 2: on their door. I mean, he doesn't need it.

1328
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:41,720
Speaker 1: I think Fox came to him. I think they want

1329
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:43,080
Speaker 1: him to shore an ambassador.

1330
01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,720
Speaker 2: Yeah right, Does it make that much of it? I mean, look,

1331
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,160
Speaker 2: you're a fan, you played the game, you turn the

1332
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 2: game on Sunday, whatever day of the week you're watching football.

1333
01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 2: Have you ever set to yourself, I'm not watching this

1334
01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 2: game because such and such is doing the announcing. That

1335
01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 2: has never occurred to me. You know, it's this the

1336
01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,920
Speaker 2: game itself. The announcers are not part of the game

1337
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:02,800
Speaker 2: in my mind.

1338
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 1: I listened to I listened to a lot of games

1339
01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 1: on mute, so I don't really bother me.

1340
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 3: Hmm.

1341
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,240
Speaker 2: But the announcer that has never affect I mean, there

1342
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:15,400
Speaker 2: are some I enjoy more than others. I really like

1343
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,080
Speaker 2: a Michaels. I enjoy watching. It's a shame I have

1344
01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 2: to do. Yeah, it's a shame I have to watch

1345
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:21,920
Speaker 2: him on Thursday night when some of those games are

1346
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 2: really poor. But I like al Michaels a lot.

1347
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,840
Speaker 1: But I happen to I just again, like I just

1348
01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:31,920
Speaker 1: seem to like not watch a lot of games in

1349
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:35,800
Speaker 1: uh you know, in like I just don't watch all

1350
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:37,480
Speaker 1: games with the sound on a lot of times, I

1351
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:38,840
Speaker 1: just I don't mind. I don't need to listen to

1352
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:40,000
Speaker 1: them to enjoy the game.

1353
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. All right, he's Jeff Schwartz.

1354
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:45,600
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Furman. This is Fox Sports Sunday on Fox

1355
01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:48,520
Speaker 2: Sports right now. These teams have a walk in the park.

1356
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:51,080
Speaker 2: They really do. That's coming up next, writing on Fox

1357
01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,960
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday Live from the Ti Rack Dot Coum studios.

1358
01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:56,040
Speaker 2: But first, here's Kevin Wired with the update.

1359
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 5: I think the best way to watch an NFL game

1360
01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:02,120
Speaker 5: is to sink the home town radio call right with

1361
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:02,760
Speaker 5: the TV.

1362
01:06:03,840 --> 01:06:05,960
Speaker 1: I like Homer Radio. That's one of my favorites.

1363
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 5: And I mean the announcers that know your team weekend

1364
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,200
Speaker 5: week out there there all the time. They know your

1365
01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 5: team better than the national announcers do. So I think

1366
01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 5: that's the best way to watch.

1367
01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 2: Soos national announcement. I cringe when they mispronounced some of

1368
01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:20,920
Speaker 2: the guys that I see on a daily basis, like

1369
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:22,720
Speaker 2: the local guys. Yeah.

1370
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 5: So it's really becoming a trend too, to sink your

1371
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:30,040
Speaker 5: game up with the audio stream with the TV feed. Anyway,

1372
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:34,480
Speaker 5: the Phoenix Suns making the big news in the NBA

1373
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 5: this weekend. They fired head coach Many Williams after the

1374
01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:42,960

01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,840

1407
01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:19,559

01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:21,760

1411
01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:28,639
Speaker 2: All right, thanks keevseeing And now, hey, we got bona

1412
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:31,040
Speaker 2: barrow betting coming up in about eight nine minutes from now.

1413
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,360
Speaker 2: He's Jeff Schwartz and Andy Furman. And you know, one

1414
01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,240
Speaker 2: of the few knocks on Bryce Young entering the draft

1415
01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 2: was his smallest size two hundred and four pounds. He

1416
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,960
Speaker 2: was the first quarterback under two oh seven taken in

1417
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,160
Speaker 2: the first round since two thousand and three. So on Friday,

1418
01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 2: he kicked off his NFL career at the Panthers rookie camp.

1419
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,280
Speaker 2: He's five to ten and he seemed to be a little,

1420
01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:54,720
Speaker 2: as they said, overshadowed by his offensive line. They said

1421
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 2: they couldn't see him. Now, is this going to be

1422
01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:58,519
Speaker 2: a fat that they got a rag on this kid

1423
01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 2: all year long? Now's story with Bryce Young?

1424
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:06,719
Speaker 1: I mean he's he's not big, Like what do people expect?

1425
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:08,840
Speaker 1: This is not this is what he is? What he is,

1426
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:11,400
Speaker 1: he's not going to be. He's not it's not big,

1427
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:12,120
Speaker 1: Like what what? What?

1428
01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 2: What?

1429
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:17,120
Speaker 1: What is the what's the surprise here? Okay, this is

1430
01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like that surprising. He seemed to do well,

1431
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 1: and they're very you know, very clearly going to play

1432
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:25,240
Speaker 1: him early in his career. I mean like they've basically

1433
01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:27,320
Speaker 1: said already like he's going to be the starter like

1434
01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:30,519
Speaker 1: a S A P. So that's not surprised to me.

1435
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:33,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, I he's not tall. It's gonna be the

1436
01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:35,440
Speaker 1: story of an entire career they have to deal with

1437
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:39,519
Speaker 1: with these comments his entire career like this is just

1438
01:09:39,640 --> 01:09:42,840
Speaker 1: what it is. It's he's just not a tall individual.

1439
01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,240
Speaker 1: And the way you shut everyone up is you play well,

1440
01:09:46,280 --> 01:09:46,679
Speaker 1: don't get.

1441
01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:49,559
Speaker 2: Hurt, right, and he can have success and he probably

1442
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:50,519
Speaker 2: will less of success.

1443
01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:53,439
Speaker 1: I think he won't have success. But again, it's a

1444
01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:56,679
Speaker 1: real thing. Like he it's not about the reason why

1445
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:59,360
Speaker 1: the hight thing to me is it's not about the height. Really,

1446
01:09:59,400 --> 01:10:03,080
Speaker 1: he'll be fights. It's it's just this body. Like the

1447
01:10:03,240 --> 01:10:05,360
Speaker 1: defensive line right are gonna hit him? Man? And can

1448
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:08,960
Speaker 1: you withstand that? Contact? Is really what it's about. Can

1449
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:12,880
Speaker 1: you withstand that constant? You know that the hitting and

1450
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 1: the tackling the physicality of the game at that size.

1451
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:18,479
Speaker 2: So how how different is it going to be from

1452
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:20,439
Speaker 2: college to the pros as far as getting.

1453
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:24,760
Speaker 1: Hit, Well, just be a bigger, faster, stronger players to

1454
01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:25,200
Speaker 1: hit him.

1455
01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,800
Speaker 2: That's it. So but but he's got some big guys

1456
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,120
Speaker 2: on that line. But but we'll see what happens.

1457
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:32,000
Speaker 1: But but he's got to be able to get to

1458
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:35,120
Speaker 1: withstand that. You know, the pay of those offensive line

1459
01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 1: is better than most teams who draft number one overall,

1460
01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:40,880
Speaker 1: which is good for him. Uh So have that support

1461
01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:42,559
Speaker 1: there but yeah, that's and that's a concern. I think

1462
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:44,840
Speaker 1: that's a fair concern to Half doesn't mean he's gonna

1463
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:47,400
Speaker 1: stink or he's going to fail, but it's a concern.

1464
01:10:47,479 --> 01:10:51,000
Speaker 2: And Half interesting, Uh, in your in your heart of heart,

1465
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:52,160
Speaker 2: you think he'll be successful.

1466
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:56,880
Speaker 1: I don't think he is going to be, you know,

1467
01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:59,559
Speaker 1: an all pro type quarterback. I think he'll be a

1468
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback. They'll sign up to a second contract. But

1469
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to be a guy who

1470
01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:08,720
Speaker 1: you know, ends up being in that in that kind

1471
01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:10,440
Speaker 1: of tier one of NFL quarterbacks?

1472
01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:12,600
Speaker 2: Was it the right pick for Carolina where they've been

1473
01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 2: better serve with Anthony Richardson.

1474
01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:20,360
Speaker 1: It was right pick for Carolina because it was probably

1475
01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,880
Speaker 1: the safest pick and for a team that really wants

1476
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: to win a SAP, it made a lot of sense.

1477
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:29,400
Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson. And here's the thing. Since Cam Newton left,

1478
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:32,719
Speaker 1: the Panthers have been kind of wandering the quarterback desert

1479
01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,160
Speaker 1: trying to find a quarterback, right trying to find their

1480
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:39,479
Speaker 1: next guy. And Bryce Young is that next guy right now.

1481
01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:41,519
Speaker 1: He's a guy that they immediately make him a starter

1482
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 1: and and you're good to go. If you go Anthony Richardson,

1483
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:48,679
Speaker 1: You're still you're hoping he's your guy, and you're kind

1484
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:51,439
Speaker 1: of you're you're you're back to the same place you've

1485
01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:52,960
Speaker 1: been and you're hoping you found somebody.

1486
01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:55,680
Speaker 2: But he's got the size, right.

1487
01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:57,840
Speaker 1: But you know, right now, Bryce Young is your guy

1488
01:11:57,840 --> 01:12:01,000
Speaker 1: and you're able to build around that one player. And

1489
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 1: that's why you draft Bryce Young over Edon Richardson.

1490
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:08,640
Speaker 2: And the good news for Carolina again, they say the

1491
01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 2: teams with the easiest schedules, Carolina is one of them. Indianapolis, Chicago, Carolina,

1492
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 2: Atlanta and New Orleans and all those teams. I guess

1493
01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 2: the Bears do not have primetime games with The Bears

1494
01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:21,440
Speaker 2: do have four of those night games.

1495
01:12:21,880 --> 01:12:23,479
Speaker 1: And they can fox, you know, they can fox teams

1496
01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:26,160
Speaker 1: into those night games, so it can you can still happen, obviously.

1497
01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:29,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think if Bryce gets hot and if Carolina

1498
01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:31,599
Speaker 2: gets hot, they may put them there just to show

1499
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:33,040
Speaker 2: him off, to put them on.

1500
01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:34,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1501
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,840
Speaker 2: Right, the one team that I think got a bad break.

1502
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:39,960
Speaker 2: And maybe I'm way off base because I'm I'm a

1503
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:41,920
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick fan. I like them a lot. I like

1504
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 2: the Patriots, but I think they schedule I think they

1505
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:48,799
Speaker 2: got a raw deal. I really do four game stretch.

1506
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:53,200
Speaker 2: They play the Eagles, Dolphins, at the Jets, at the Cowboys.

1507
01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 2: They could easily be owned four, own four. I mean,

1508
01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 2: it's just the schedules are monster, and I don't think

1509
01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 2: they deserve that because they really didn't fare that well

1510
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:02,920
Speaker 2: last year.

1511
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:07,800
Speaker 1: The NFL is hard, man. You're not going to find

1512
01:13:07,920 --> 01:13:11,160
Speaker 1: many stretches in the NFL that are easy for teams.

1513
01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:13,080
Speaker 1: It's just it's a hard league, man. This is why

1514
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:16,240
Speaker 1: it's you know, every win is so cherished, and so

1515
01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:19,679
Speaker 1: I don't really feel bad when teams have tougher schedules

1516
01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:23,760
Speaker 1: on paper. It just it is. It's a tough league.

1517
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:25,880
Speaker 2: Man, I know it is. But just some teams do

1518
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 2: get a bit of a break. They have a buy

1519
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,040
Speaker 2: a week eleven, which is pretty good. But then they're

1520
01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:32,799
Speaker 2: at the Giants, they play the Chargers, they're at the Steels.

1521
01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:34,200
Speaker 2: I think the Steels gonna be real good.

1522
01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:36,120
Speaker 1: But they gotta they gotta play those teams anyways, they're

1523
01:13:36,160 --> 01:13:37,120
Speaker 1: on their schedule this year.

1524
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,040
Speaker 2: No, you're right, don't matter if you're upset about it

1525
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:41,240
Speaker 2: or no, this is what it is. Yeah, well, look

1526
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 2: let's hope that maybe Bill O'Brien, uh and on the

1527
01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:49,479
Speaker 2: offensive side of the football could help Mac Jones maybe, certainly, Yes,

1528
01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:52,000
Speaker 2: do you think it's a possibility.

1529
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:57,320
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Bill O'Brien. Good coach, like bad general manager, terrible

1530
01:13:57,320 --> 01:13:59,680
Speaker 1: general manager. If you and it was Tommy Houston, like

1531
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:01,760
Speaker 1: Dave went to the playoffs in four to six years

1532
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:04,400
Speaker 1: in Houston, like he can coach. That was never His

1533
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:06,920
Speaker 1: problem was never the coaching part of especially an offense,

1534
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:10,720
Speaker 1: and he coached well Alabama offense. It was he was

1535
01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:13,000
Speaker 1: a terrible general manager a Houston. He didn't know he

1536
01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:15,639
Speaker 1: was terrible at that job. He just gets to coach offense.

1537
01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:17,720
Speaker 1: Now in New England, I think they're going to be

1538
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:19,479
Speaker 1: fine on offense. I think Mac Jones will play the

1539
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:21,599
Speaker 1: best ball of his career. Now is mac Jones again?

1540
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:27,200
Speaker 1: Look at the AFC East Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen, Tuatanabeloa

1541
01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 1: and Mac Jones. At best, Mac is the third best

1542
01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:37,080
Speaker 1: quarterback on that team in that division. You're not winning

1543
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:39,440
Speaker 1: a division or the third best quarterback.

1544
01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:41,640
Speaker 2: Interesting, now, you're right, we'll see it.

1545
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:45,640
Speaker 1: So you're you're looking for, you know, the ability to

1546
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,559
Speaker 1: be a wild card team. That's the problem with Mac Jones,

1547
01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:50,240
Speaker 1: not that he I think he'll be fine. I think

1548
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 1: he'll pay absolutely fine. Aget, Bill O'Brien, good coach. It

1549
01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:56,559
Speaker 1: just he's just not as talent as everyone else.

1550
01:14:57,120 --> 01:14:59,639
Speaker 2: Right now, you're right, all right. He's Jeff Schwartz. He's

1551
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:02,240
Speaker 2: pretty did he really is on Andy Fermit together. We

1552

Speaker 1: We are rocking and rolling. Happy Mother's Day to all

1678
01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:18,200
Speaker 1: the mothers out there. Hopefully you're sleeping right now not

1679
01:21:18,280 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 1: having to listen to us to blabber about sports. But anyways,

1680
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:24,639
Speaker 1: have a great Mother's Day, a wonderful day to celebrate

1681
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:25,800
Speaker 1: all the moms out there.

1682
01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:28,360
Speaker 2: Will said, well said. You know, it's all about the NBA.

1683
01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:31,080
Speaker 2: In the game seven with seventy six and Celtics we'll

1684
01:21:31,080 --> 01:21:33,160
Speaker 2: get that in the second. But I can't it over

1685
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:36,080
Speaker 2: the fact that Monty Williams, who is Coach of the

1686
01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:39,280
Speaker 2: Year a year ago for the Phoenix Suns, is now fired.

1687
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:41,720
Speaker 2: Has it become less of a coach? Does he know

1688
01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:45,800
Speaker 2: less about the game? How do you justify firing that guy?

1689
01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:48,160
Speaker 2: I don't get it. I'd like to ask the guy

1690
01:21:48,240 --> 01:21:50,160
Speaker 2: who fired him. I assume it's the owner of the

1691
01:21:50,240 --> 01:21:54,000
Speaker 2: ball club. He said, why would you fire him? What

1692
01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,400
Speaker 2: rationale is there to fire this man?

1693
01:21:56,680 --> 01:22:00,400
Speaker 1: Oh? There's none really? By the Waybay coaches here feels

1694
01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 1: like a great way to be fired eventually when when

1695
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,920
Speaker 1: a new owner comes in in sports, they often want

1696
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:13,639
Speaker 1: their own imprint on the team, right, and there's only

1697
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:15,519
Speaker 1: so much they can do. I mean, they could fire everyone,

1698
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 1: I guess, but they did let go some some scouts

1699
01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 1: in front office personnel where Matt it should be a

1700
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:25,760
Speaker 1: bought the team. He okay with Kevin Durant trade, So

1701
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:27,680
Speaker 1: that's kind of him putting his stamp on the on

1702
01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,400
Speaker 1: the team. And then he wants his own coach. He

1703
01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:34,040
Speaker 1: wants his own coach, He wants someone that he can

1704
01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:35,320
Speaker 1: work with. The I'm not saying he can't work with

1705
01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 1: with with money Williams. But typically again, owners want their

1706
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:42,920
Speaker 1: own coaches, their own general manage guys they have hired themselves,

1707
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:46,400
Speaker 1: And it's unfair to Monty Williams. He did nothing, in

1708
01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:50,280
Speaker 1: my opinion, to be fired. But that's the truth of it,

1709
01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:54,040
Speaker 1: is that he just wants guys that he hired himself

1710
01:22:54,080 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 1: on that in those roles. The problem is Andy, when

1711
01:22:57,360 --> 01:23:00,240
Speaker 1: you fire a coach, when you fire any one of

1712
01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:03,560
Speaker 1: might be any walk of life, any job, you have

1713
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:06,880
Speaker 1: to hire someone who's better than them, right, And so

1714
01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:11,000
Speaker 1: you have fired many Williams. Who are you hiring Who's

1715
01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:13,040
Speaker 1: a better coach? That's the question.

1716
01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:15,240
Speaker 2: You bring up something very interesting what I had not

1717
01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:17,400
Speaker 2: thought of until you mentioned it. There may have been

1718
01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:20,519
Speaker 2: a personality conflict between the new owner and Monnie Williams.

1719
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:23,160
Speaker 2: Maybe the owner wanted to play certain players or do

1720
01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:24,040
Speaker 2: something differently.

1721
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:28,360
Speaker 1: I think I feel like it's almost too early to

1722
01:23:28,400 --> 01:23:30,280
Speaker 1: make that. They haven't worked long enough together to make

1723
01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:33,040
Speaker 1: that conclusion. I mean, Kevin Durant was only healthy for

1724
01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:35,800
Speaker 1: a small bit of the of the season right he

1725
01:23:35,840 --> 01:23:38,000
Speaker 1: got there, and I remember he sprain's ankle on the

1726
01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:41,439
Speaker 1: floor immediately before his first start after a knee injury.

1727
01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:44,880
Speaker 1: So I just don't even know if there was time

1728
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:47,080
Speaker 1: to figure out if if you and the and the

1729
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:49,760
Speaker 1: coach got along. But he probably wants his own guy.

1730
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:51,760
Speaker 1: I mean again, like it's nothing with mine, probably nothing

1731
01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:53,160
Speaker 1: to do with Monney Williams. It's the fact that he

1732
01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:59,320
Speaker 1: just wants his own coach that he hired to be there.

1733
01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:02,160
Speaker 2: We'll cou coming down the home stretch right now in

1734
01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:04,120
Speaker 2: the NBA playoffs, and I have a list of like

1735
01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:08,120
Speaker 2: someone surprises in the playoffs in my mind, surprise that

1736
01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 2: Milwaukee is out, I'm surprised that the Heat is still in.

1737
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:14,320
Speaker 2: Unsurprised that Lakers are still in, and unsurprised Golden State

1738
01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:16,839
Speaker 2: is out. Anything that you could add to that list.

1739
01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:19,200
Speaker 1: Well, Milwaukee, I think it's the one that's, you know,

1740
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,280
Speaker 1: surprised that all of us. I'm not surprised the Lakers

1741
01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:26,439
Speaker 1: are still there. I am again. I make you know,

1742
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:28,360
Speaker 1: I make no bodes about it. I do not watch

1743
01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:30,760
Speaker 1: much regular season NBA basketball. I just don't have time

1744
01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:33,080
Speaker 1: my life for it. And I think that the regular

1745
01:24:33,160 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 1: season is almost meaningless because the postseason is just a

1746
01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:39,040
Speaker 1: different a different game, right, I mean, look at another

1747
01:24:39,160 --> 01:24:40,640
Speaker 1: they basically packed in the last two months of the

1748
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:42,599
Speaker 1: regular season to play for the playoffs, right, Like, it's

1749
01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:45,880
Speaker 1: just it's just it's not the same sport. And so

1750
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:48,240
Speaker 1: when the when the playoffs start. Now, I watch all

1751
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:51,320
Speaker 1: the playoff games. I gamble my game. I'm actually the

1752
01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,840
Speaker 1: NBA playoffs are one of my most profitable things I

1753
01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:56,519
Speaker 1: wager on. I actually have it right here. I've been

1754
01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:57,600
Speaker 1: tracking for the postseason.

1755
01:24:58,640 --> 01:24:59,840
Speaker 2: Do you do baseball and hockey?

1756
01:25:01,160 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 3: No?

1757
01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:04,519
Speaker 1: Well, no, I on thirty seven and twenty five in

1758
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:08,680
Speaker 1: the NBA postseason. So far it's pretty good. No, I

1759
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,960
Speaker 1: I will. I always bet daily baseball for like a

1760
01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:13,720
Speaker 1: month that I rose it's just things to bet on.

1761
01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:16,800
Speaker 1: I just stopped doing it so because I feel like

1762
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:19,400
Speaker 1: the NBA playoffs can be sort of predictable times certain

1763
01:25:19,439 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 1: and certain spots. I bet a lot of first quarters,

1764
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:24,559
Speaker 1: so like today, I'll probably look at taking Boston first

1765
01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 1: quarter just because I think they're going to start really fast,

1766
01:25:26,439 --> 01:25:27,720
Speaker 1: and then you never know how the rest of the

1767
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:29,439
Speaker 1: game goes. I feel like in a lot of these games.

1768
01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:34,680
Speaker 1: But nonetheless, you know, I the Bucks were surprise to me,

1769
01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:37,000
Speaker 1: so the Celtics. So everyone's to enter the postias and

1770
01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:39,360
Speaker 1: everyone was like the Celtics are the favorite in the East,

1771
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:42,160
Speaker 1: right ahead of Milwaukee because they're deeper and they have,

1772
01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:45,040
Speaker 1: you know, more ability to do different things. Then I

1773
01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:47,759
Speaker 1: watched the Celtics play the Hawks and now the Sixers.

1774
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:49,000
Speaker 1: I don't see it. I don't see it at all.

1775
01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:52,479
Speaker 1: I don't see a championship team. But the Celtics, they're

1776
01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:54,639
Speaker 1: way too up and down, way too up and down.

1777
01:25:54,760 --> 01:25:57,439
Speaker 1: So that so just from the narrative perspective of the

1778
01:25:57,479 --> 01:26:00,400
Speaker 1: Celtics are the favorite. That is surprising me a lot.

1779
01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:02,559
Speaker 2: They don't have to kill her instinct, and I think

1780
01:26:02,600 --> 01:26:04,040
Speaker 2: they had it last year, I really do.

1781
01:26:04,240 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 1: Well, they don't have I don't know. I don't know

1782
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:10,320
Speaker 1: that's coach se They just don't have a dude that

1783
01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:16,720
Speaker 1: like just takes over games like they need to. And

1784
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:19,280
Speaker 1: the other surprise to me, it's not really surprised, I think,

1785
01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:24,160
Speaker 1: is that you know, now Denver is healthy and they've

1786
01:26:24,200 --> 01:26:28,479
Speaker 1: kind of overcome their playoff woes, which again the last

1787
01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:31,439
Speaker 1: couple of years we've marked them right for the lack

1788
01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:33,360
Speaker 1: of success in the playoffs. Not this year obviously.

1789
01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:36,479
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I think one of the problems is

1790
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:38,920
Speaker 2: getting to know that coach Joe Mizzulu who came on

1791
01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:42,080
Speaker 2: came on board late. Never coached in the NBA before,

1792
01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:46,320
Speaker 2: played for Bob Huggins at West Virginia. And I had

1793
01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:48,200
Speaker 2: a real problem when I watched the game the other

1794
01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:50,360
Speaker 2: night when they lost by one at the buzzer when

1795
01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:53,599
Speaker 2: Marcus Moore took that shot, and obviously it wasn't good.

1796
01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:55,880
Speaker 2: I mean, you saw the buzzer light went off when

1797
01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:57,640
Speaker 2: the ball went through, so it was too late. But

1798
01:26:57,760 --> 01:26:59,320
Speaker 2: he didn't call a time out, he didn't set a

1799
01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,639
Speaker 2: play off of ten seconds.

1800
01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:05,080
Speaker 1: This is not you know, this is a tough job

1801
01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:08,680
Speaker 1: for your first coaching job, your head coaching job. Right,

1802
01:27:08,720 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 1: he's thirty three years old, me and jeez, and you

1803
01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:16,800
Speaker 1: know this this happened because obviously he had had to

1804
01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:21,360
Speaker 1: be let go, and then the rest of that and

1805
01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:23,720
Speaker 1: the rest of the well, you can't be sleeping with

1806
01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:26,519
Speaker 1: a within an executive, I think, and keep your job.

1807
01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:32,560
Speaker 1: But nonetheless there is a you know, the rest of

1808
01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:34,720
Speaker 1: the coaching staff, like all got other jobs and just

1809
01:27:34,920 --> 01:27:37,800
Speaker 1: was it was Mozilla was left over. And I think

1810
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:40,240
Speaker 1: one thing that he hasn't done, which I really like

1811
01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:44,080
Speaker 1: when coaches do this is you know, you hire another coach,

1812
01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:47,639
Speaker 1: you know other coaches with experience, yes, and he doesn't

1813
01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:48,960
Speaker 1: really had it when I was a roster for that,

1814
01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:53,120
Speaker 1: So that's a part of what makes this really really tough.

1815
01:27:53,880 --> 01:27:56,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and speaking of him playing for Bob Hugans, I

1816
01:27:56,360 --> 01:27:59,040
Speaker 2: guess you heard what happened with Huggins earlier this week.

1817
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:02,720
Speaker 1: I did, Yeah, West Virginia. You know, I think one

1818
01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:04,639
Speaker 1: of the rare instances where a coach doesn't get fired

1819
01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:06,960
Speaker 1: for some of those comments. I don't know, right, but

1820
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:09,479
Speaker 1: he has his salary got reduced by million dollars and

1821
01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:12,720
Speaker 1: the million dollars has been donated to I believe l

1822
01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:16,760
Speaker 1: g B t Q organizations, which is a pretty big,

1823
01:28:17,160 --> 01:28:22,519
Speaker 1: substantial fine, right, And it's it for one of the

1824
01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:25,920
Speaker 1: first times I feel like in a situation like this,

1825
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:28,240
Speaker 1: the school's taking it seriously, like they're not. They're not

1826
01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:31,160
Speaker 1: they're not firing him, which I don't think was necessary

1827
01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:34,599
Speaker 1: to fire him here, but they're like they're like legit, Like, Okay,

1828
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:37,360
Speaker 1: we're taking this seriously. He's donating a million dollars of

1829
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:41,600
Speaker 1: his salary, he's going to counseling, like we're taking this.

1830
01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 1: It was good to see West Virginia appears at least

1831
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:49,599
Speaker 1: on paper, they're taking this actually seriously, which I feel

1832
01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:51,600
Speaker 1: like a lot of times we get lip service to

1833
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:54,639
Speaker 1: this and in the end nothing ends up happening.

1834
01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:57,200
Speaker 2: Well, the cancel culture this day and age is quick

1835
01:28:57,280 --> 01:28:59,080
Speaker 2: to take a guy's head and shop it off. And

1836
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:01,280
Speaker 2: I'm not so certain and you learn your lesson by

1837
01:29:01,360 --> 01:29:04,920
Speaker 2: being fired, I really don't. Yeah, I think paid a

1838
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:07,200
Speaker 2: price deeper now by staying there.

1839
01:29:07,520 --> 01:29:10,760
Speaker 1: I don't even the cancel culture thing. And there's a

1840
01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:13,200
Speaker 1: probably station for this that's not not this show, but

1841
01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:16,240
Speaker 1: like it's not actually happened people. A lot of times

1842
01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:19,120
Speaker 1: people get canceled and they just continue on their same

1843
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:22,080
Speaker 1: exact life and it might even get better sometimes I

1844
01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:25,519
Speaker 1: believe been canceled, it's such a cancel culture is actually

1845
01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:28,600
Speaker 1: very in my opinion, very It's not as bad as

1846
01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:31,280
Speaker 1: we think it is. But nonetheless, you know, I Falkens

1847
01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:33,360
Speaker 1: would have been canceled, fired, he would have got a

1848
01:29:33,439 --> 01:29:35,639
Speaker 1: job next year. Nothing would have happened though he would

1849
01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:37,120
Speaker 1: have been he would have kept his he would have

1850
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:39,160
Speaker 1: sued them for his money, and then he would have

1851
01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:42,400
Speaker 1: gone a job next year. So you know, to your point,

1852
01:29:42,560 --> 01:29:47,479
Speaker 1: like he is keeping his job with counseling and with

1853
01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:49,200
Speaker 1: a reduced sellar, which I think ends up being the

1854
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:53,559
Speaker 1: right decision. And again I appreciate that West Virginia appears

1855
01:29:53,560 --> 01:29:55,360
Speaker 1: to have taken this seriously and not just kind of

1856
01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:59,360
Speaker 1: lip service to you know, to to appease the masses.

1857
01:29:59,720 --> 01:30:01,920
Speaker 2: Ye, to your point, he was fired at the University

1858
01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:04,680
Speaker 2: of Cincinnati for d u I and you know what,

1859
01:30:05,120 --> 01:30:06,800
Speaker 2: he did get a job. He went to Kansas State

1860
01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:08,720
Speaker 2: right after that, so he did get a job.

1861
01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:16,120
Speaker 1: Culture often for high profile people doesn't actually exist because

1862
01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:20,639
Speaker 1: you just immediately get another job. It doesn't it doesn't exist.

1863
01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:23,200
Speaker 1: It doesn't know for for me and you, Like, let's

1864
01:30:23,200 --> 01:30:25,920
Speaker 1: say I were to be canceled, Yeah, I would probably

1865
01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:29,080
Speaker 1: have a tougher time finding a job, but a lot

1866
01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:32,880
Speaker 1: of profit people, the cool would cancel thing. It's another

1867
01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:33,719
Speaker 1: job immediately.

1868
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:38,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was. I was surprised that he went off

1869
01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:41,679
Speaker 2: and said what he said, but uh, that's hugs.

1870
01:30:41,720 --> 01:30:42,559
Speaker 1: I mean, you know he.

1871
01:30:44,560 --> 01:30:45,000
Speaker 2: Way he is.

1872
01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:47,960
Speaker 1: And I think I think sometimes you know, you get

1873
01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:48,960
Speaker 1: to a certain age.

1874
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:49,840
Speaker 2: You don't care.

1875
01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,200
Speaker 1: You're right, we don't care. You just don't have a filter.

1876
01:30:52,600 --> 01:30:57,200
Speaker 1: You say things that you probably shouldn't shouldn't say. You know,

1877
01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:00,880
Speaker 1: you obviously have done a good job of not doing that.

1878
01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:04,080
Speaker 1: But I think that it's just you's a point where

1879
01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:07,559
Speaker 1: like and sometimes I really do think, you know, when

1880
01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:10,920
Speaker 1: you're a coach, even a player, do you do so

1881
01:31:11,040 --> 01:31:15,040
Speaker 1: much media sometimes that you just forget Sometimes you're like

1882
01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:20,559
Speaker 1: you're being you're live radio, you say things you shouldn't say.

1883
01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:25,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I have a problem when when these people,

1884
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:27,519
Speaker 2: these media people will come out that a lot of

1885
01:31:27,560 --> 01:31:29,560
Speaker 2: columns were written about him in the USA today, I

1886
01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:33,560
Speaker 2: read locally in Cincinnati about him saying that you know

1887
01:31:33,680 --> 01:31:36,519
Speaker 2: what he said, it kind of shows the kind.

1888
01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:36,960
Speaker 1: Of person you know.

1889
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:41,040
Speaker 2: It doesn't, he said. It doesn't mean he's that way.

1890
01:31:41,120 --> 01:31:42,719
Speaker 2: Does he feel that way? A good certainly wasn't.

1891
01:31:42,720 --> 01:31:45,840
Speaker 1: It wasn't wasn't. Sort of in jest though, it was

1892
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:48,280
Speaker 1: it like he was fooling around.

1893
01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:50,320
Speaker 2: I mean, I think, I mean, I look, I don't

1894
01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:52,479
Speaker 2: know what's going on between his ears, but I know

1895
01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:54,680
Speaker 2: him fairly well. I did a radio showed him for

1896
01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:57,599
Speaker 2: a year and uh, you know, I had no problem

1897
01:31:57,640 --> 01:31:59,800
Speaker 2: with him. We got along and he was upset with

1898
01:31:59,840 --> 01:32:01,280
Speaker 2: me for a long time and he didn't talk to

1899
01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:04,680
Speaker 2: me for for months because he claimed that I sent

1900
01:32:04,800 --> 01:32:08,839
Speaker 2: some material to uh to Michigan State to a Michigan recruit,

1901
01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:11,439
Speaker 2: and I heard his recruiting because I sent some stuff

1902
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:15,800
Speaker 2: to the kid. I don't even remember. I don't do that. Yeah,

1903
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:19,360
Speaker 2: he said that. He said I sent material to a kid.

1904
01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:22,280
Speaker 2: I think it was Mattine Cleves was the player, and

1905
01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:26,679
Speaker 2: he went to Michigan State that I have no idea.

1906
01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:29,439
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe I did send stuff to the kid,

1907
01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:31,000
Speaker 2: but I don't think I tell him when to go

1908
01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:33,719
Speaker 2: to school. But I don't know why, he said, because

1909
01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:35,640
Speaker 2: he was really upset with me. He didn't talk to

1910
01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:39,360
Speaker 2: me for about a year. Wow, But they were Okay.

1911
01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:44,080
Speaker 1: Now that scandal's not on your Wikipedia page, man, we

1912
01:32:44,240 --> 01:32:44,800
Speaker 1: have to update that.

1913
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:46,640
Speaker 2: We have a lot of scandals. But you know, I

1914
01:32:46,840 --> 01:32:48,320
Speaker 2: do have a lot of I should add him, I

1915
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:49,800
Speaker 2: have tons of scandals, believe me.

1916
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:51,799
Speaker 1: Look at you, man, just causing waves.

1917
01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:54,320
Speaker 2: I don't mean to. But just just a week, It's okay.

1918
01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:58,120
Speaker 2: So getting back to Game seven today, the home court

1919
01:32:58,160 --> 01:33:01,280
Speaker 2: advantage has really proven to be tremendous advantage in the

1920
01:33:01,320 --> 01:33:04,320
Speaker 2: playoffs right now, but again this game, I mean, and

1921
01:33:04,400 --> 01:33:06,519
Speaker 2: you hit it on the head earlier. I mean, you

1922
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:08,240
Speaker 2: don't know what team's gonna show up be a Philly

1923
01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 2: or Boston, you just don't know.

1924
01:33:10,080 --> 01:33:14,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, home court advantage has helped for the most part,

1925
01:33:15,280 --> 01:33:18,719
Speaker 1: but it has not helped has not helped the Celtics,

1926
01:33:18,760 --> 01:33:21,240
Speaker 1: who lost Game one at home, lost Game five at home,

1927
01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:25,000
Speaker 1: and lost the Hawks at home as well. So for

1928
01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:26,880
Speaker 1: the most part, it's been really good outside of the

1929
01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:31,840
Speaker 1: teams that you know that again really mostly Boston. It's

1930
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:34,920
Speaker 1: just you know, look again, if we say, like everyone

1931
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:39,240
Speaker 1: plays their full capacity today, Boston probably wins very close

1932
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:41,240
Speaker 1: because if Harden plays really well, that's kind of the

1933
01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:44,599
Speaker 1: key to Philly winning, right, all of these games. If

1934
01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:48,640
Speaker 1: you get a hardened and b game with Boston not

1935
01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,320
Speaker 1: playing to their full kind of power, then I think

1936
01:33:52,120 --> 01:33:54,840
Speaker 1: the Philly is going to win. But we have to

1937
01:33:54,920 --> 01:33:56,840
Speaker 1: discuss that the Doc Rivers part of this, right he

1938
01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:02,000
Speaker 1: is as a coach has been really really bad in

1939
01:34:02,280 --> 01:34:04,760
Speaker 1: close out games. What's the seventeen.

1940
01:34:06,479 --> 01:34:08,880
Speaker 2: And it's that just bad luck or I'm not coaching.

1941
01:34:09,720 --> 01:34:11,640
Speaker 1: I mean, at some point it becomes bad coaching, right

1942
01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:14,519
Speaker 1: like I would think, and again I'm not We're not

1943
01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:16,360
Speaker 1: you know, here to listen to let's break down exodos

1944
01:34:16,360 --> 01:34:18,840
Speaker 1: of basketball. But I don't know why that is, but

1945
01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:21,280
Speaker 1: I think it absolutely has to be some form bad coaching,

1946
01:34:21,720 --> 01:34:23,479
Speaker 1: and so there's always that at play today. It's like,

1947
01:34:23,560 --> 01:34:26,400
Speaker 1: what happens with with Doc Rivers, is you do something

1948
01:34:27,040 --> 01:34:28,920
Speaker 1: that ends up costing his team a win?

1949
01:34:30,400 --> 01:34:32,160
Speaker 2: Well, I mean they should have they should have closed

1950
01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:34,720
Speaker 2: it out Thursday night. They had the Celtics by the

1951
01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:37,600
Speaker 2: throat after three quarters in Boston, came alive in the

1952
01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:38,720
Speaker 2: fourth quarter and they beat him.

1953
01:34:38,800 --> 01:34:39,280
Speaker 1: So that was it.

1954
01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:41,720
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens today. But you know, in the

1955
01:34:41,800 --> 01:34:44,120
Speaker 2: back of his mind, I mean, he's got to be seeing,

1956
01:34:44,240 --> 01:34:47,200
Speaker 2: hearing and reading this his seventeen and thirty two close

1957
01:34:47,240 --> 01:34:50,880
Speaker 2: out record. Plus the storyline now is he's coaching for

1958
01:34:50,960 --> 01:34:54,640
Speaker 2: his life, so he may pull some shenanigans today that

1959
01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:56,200
Speaker 2: may really be off the wall.

1960
01:34:59,240 --> 01:35:02,960
Speaker 1: Yeah again, you fired Doc who we hired a hired

1961
01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:07,120
Speaker 1: Mommy Williams. Is that what we're doing? I just I don't.

1962
01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:08,439
Speaker 1: I don't think Doc is.

1963
01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:10,200
Speaker 3: Is.

1964
01:35:11,240 --> 01:35:13,920
Speaker 2: I never thought of him doing an elite coach. It's

1965
01:35:13,920 --> 01:35:15,519
Speaker 2: a decent coach, not an elite coach.

1966
01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:17,960
Speaker 1: Okay, So okay, So here's the thing that let's say,

1967
01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:21,479
Speaker 1: Darvin Ham they win a title this year with the Lakers,

1968
01:35:22,120 --> 01:35:23,920
Speaker 1: is he does he become an elite coach because he wasn't.

1969
01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:25,600
Speaker 1: I don't know what makes someone an elite coach. I

1970
01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:26,280
Speaker 1: really want you know.

1971
01:35:26,320 --> 01:35:28,120
Speaker 2: They turned it around up because of him, because of

1972
01:35:28,160 --> 01:35:31,880
Speaker 2: the trade deadline. That's that's what. And they're healthy, right right,

1973
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:32,799
Speaker 2: A D's healthy.

1974
01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:35,679
Speaker 1: I I don't know what makes someone elite coach in basketball.

1975
01:35:35,720 --> 01:35:37,240
Speaker 1: Obviously Phil was a wait, I mean we know that,

1976
01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:41,519
Speaker 1: right and Steve Carson. To me, it's about there's obviously

1977
01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:43,920
Speaker 1: strategic and I think Darvin Ham is a good example.

1978
01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:45,960
Speaker 1: He's done a good job in the series, The Warrior

1979
01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:48,800
Speaker 1: series of making adjustments, whether it was you know, the

1980
01:35:48,880 --> 01:35:51,800
Speaker 1: starting lineup, whether it was playing time in the middle

1981
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:53,720
Speaker 1: of the game with I think his substitution pattern with

1982
01:35:53,840 --> 01:35:57,040
Speaker 1: Lebron a D to keep those guys what is always

1983
01:35:57,040 --> 01:35:59,639
Speaker 1: on the court, one's always on the court and figure

1984
01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:01,839
Speaker 1: out how a way to get them rest in certain spots.

1985
01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:06,040
Speaker 1: He did a good job with that. Defensively, they basically

1986
01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:09,320
Speaker 1: were double teaming stuff as much as possible, switching screens,

1987
01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:12,160
Speaker 1: making it really like we're not gonna let Steph beat us. Okay,

1988
01:36:12,200 --> 01:36:15,560
Speaker 1: So I think he did a good job with adjustments.

1989
01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:21,000
Speaker 1: But to me, a coach in the NBA is about

1990
01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:25,920
Speaker 1: managing personalities, right, and you know that's what Steve Kerr

1991
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:28,519
Speaker 1: with awards ever think that's done, just an incredible job

1992
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:32,840
Speaker 1: over the years. Is managing the personalities really Draymond Green

1993
01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:37,960
Speaker 1: the last nine years. And that's where Phil Jackson. You know,

1994
01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:39,479
Speaker 1: if you listen to anyone to play with Phil, that's

1995
01:36:39,479 --> 01:36:42,520
Speaker 1: where Phil gets credit for for for doing that. Greg Popovich,

1996
01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:48,080
Speaker 1: it's managing the personalities, making it all work together, making

1997
01:36:48,120 --> 01:36:52,519
Speaker 1: the competitive competitiveness between the players all meld together.

1998
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:56,880
Speaker 2: You know, I can't while you mentioned this, I can't

1999
01:36:56,920 --> 01:36:59,880
Speaker 2: think of an elite coach really besides Kerr and the

2000
01:37:00,120 --> 01:37:04,719
Speaker 2: NBA right now. Popovich was maybe, I guess you consider

2001
01:37:04,800 --> 01:37:07,000
Speaker 2: that he was. I mean, he's had a couple of

2002
01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:09,880
Speaker 2: rough years. The list over years, you know, not great

2003
01:37:09,920 --> 01:37:13,240
Speaker 2: players on his squad. But other than that, is Steve

2004
01:37:13,360 --> 01:37:18,559
Speaker 2: Kurz the the one probably yeah, yeah, interesting, Well, who knows.

Speaker 2: of course of course we're live from the tirach dot

2016
01:37:52,160 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 2: com studios. All right now, now I have to go back,

2017
01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:58,840
Speaker 2: if I may, with you at fir tonight this Golden

2018
01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:01,080
Speaker 2: State Lakers. And I know you're a Laker fan, but yes,

2019
01:38:01,320 --> 01:38:03,280
Speaker 2: I look at the box. I mean, it is unreal

2020
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,439
Speaker 2: what they did. I mean, you know the storyline. Obviously

2021
01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:09,200
Speaker 2: Golden State I lost defending chance but one twenty two,

2022
01:38:09,240 --> 01:38:11,800
Speaker 2: one on one. But what the Lakers did to they

2023
01:38:11,840 --> 01:38:15,280
Speaker 2: did demoralize them. They really did a d seventeen points,

2024
01:38:15,360 --> 01:38:20,080
Speaker 2: twenty boards, Lebron thirty points, nine boards. But this team

2025
01:38:20,200 --> 01:38:23,759
Speaker 2: shot fifty two percent from the field and fifty percent

2026
01:38:23,840 --> 01:38:25,880
Speaker 2: from three. That's unheard of, really.

2027
01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:28,439
Speaker 1: Well, and the Lakers are making fifty percent of the threes.

2028
01:38:28,479 --> 01:38:30,599
Speaker 1: They're not beating them, right because they're They're a team

2029
01:38:30,640 --> 01:38:32,640
Speaker 1: that's not going to shoot a lot of threes, and

2030
01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:35,120
Speaker 1: when they do it, you know, because because they score

2031
01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:37,799
Speaker 1: a majority of their points in the pains and whatnot

2032
01:38:37,960 --> 01:38:40,880
Speaker 1: on the basket, when they're shooting fifty percent from three,

2033
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:43,280
Speaker 1: you're just not going to beat them. They're too good

2034
01:38:43,800 --> 01:38:48,400
Speaker 1: to me. The story was Lebron thirty ninety nine. You know,

2035
01:38:48,600 --> 01:38:51,040
Speaker 1: he he wanted this series to be over. And when

2036
01:38:51,120 --> 01:38:52,920
Speaker 1: he's playing that way, you're just not You're just not

2037
01:38:52,960 --> 01:38:53,719
Speaker 1: gonna be the Lakers.

2038
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:53,960
Speaker 3: Right.

2039
01:38:55,160 --> 01:38:57,640
Speaker 1: Defensively, the effort was certainly there. Now the war is

2040
01:38:57,680 --> 01:39:00,200
Speaker 1: mister bunch openshots Klay Thompson was not very good good

2041
01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:01,439
Speaker 1: he seems to be.

2042
01:39:01,600 --> 01:39:02,519
Speaker 2: Shot three for nineteen.

2043
01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:04,960
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's the eight. He's as older. It

2044
01:39:05,080 --> 01:39:10,200
Speaker 1: happens when you're older, let's just say. And the role

2045
01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:13,280
Speaker 1: players for the Warriors again, it is what the NBA

2046
01:39:13,720 --> 01:39:16,720
Speaker 1: can be sort of predictable at times because you know,

2047
01:39:17,280 --> 01:39:20,720
Speaker 1: on the road, role players just don't play as well,

2048
01:39:21,640 --> 01:39:25,200
Speaker 1: and the war players for the Warriors didn't. Wiggams wasn't

2049
01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:27,200
Speaker 1: as good. Now he's not really a role player per se.

2050
01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:31,680
Speaker 1: You know, Pool didn't give you much again, he had

2051
01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:33,800
Speaker 1: four thould I think before he scored his first point

2052
01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:36,519
Speaker 1: and just Steph can't do it all and me, Steph

2053
01:39:36,600 --> 01:39:39,200
Speaker 1: played really really was Steph is so good. You didn't

2054
01:39:39,200 --> 01:39:40,000
Speaker 1: get much help.

2055
01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:43,800
Speaker 2: One guy at double figures. Draymond had nine and nine.

2056
01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:47,200
Speaker 2: Steph had thirty two. Clay Thompson, as you mentioned, let's

2057
01:39:47,200 --> 01:39:49,160
Speaker 2: squad eight, but he shot three for nineteen. You talk

2058
01:39:49,200 --> 01:39:52,400
Speaker 2: about efficient. The Lakers shot thirty nine for seventy five

2059
01:39:52,479 --> 01:39:56,240
Speaker 2: on the floor for fifty two percent. Golden State shot

2060
01:39:56,400 --> 01:39:59,280
Speaker 2: thirty nine, same amount of field goals for one hundred

2061
01:39:59,280 --> 01:40:03,919
Speaker 2: and three. Thew one hundred field goal tries thirty seven percent. Amazing.

2062
01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:08,160
Speaker 2: It's just the stats are made. They really are three points.

2063
01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:11,439
Speaker 2: Golden State thirteenth for forty eight twenty seven percent, with

2064
01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:14,280
Speaker 2: the Lakers are thirteen for twenty six fifty percent. It's

2065
01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:16,519
Speaker 2: it's it's something else. I mean, the fact that they

2066
01:40:16,560 --> 01:40:19,400
Speaker 2: had so many more attempts from the field and they

2067
01:40:19,439 --> 01:40:22,599
Speaker 2: couldn't score, it just shows you what they didn't. Kellay

2068
01:40:22,720 --> 01:40:25,000
Speaker 2: Thompson is a big reason why I think they lost

2069
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:25,439
Speaker 2: that game.

2070
01:40:27,960 --> 01:40:30,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean this, you know there's this big game

2071
01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:33,800
Speaker 1: Clay right this, uh, you know a game six class

2072
01:40:33,800 --> 01:40:38,759
Speaker 1: should say, and it just just didn't happen. Look, Clay

2073
01:40:39,240 --> 01:40:41,040
Speaker 1: has been through a lot. He has had a lot

2074
01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:47,680
Speaker 1: of injuries, and it's hard to you know, to I

2075
01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:51,200
Speaker 1: think at times, you know, as you get older to

2076
01:40:51,240 --> 01:40:53,439
Speaker 1: play at that same level. We've had so many injuries.

2077
01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 1: It's what really makes kind of what Lebron's doing pretty incredible.

2078
01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:59,439
Speaker 1: Right You've got a really issue right now, and you know,

2079
01:40:59,479 --> 01:41:01,800
Speaker 1: the older that that Clay has gone, just the less,

2080
01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:04,160
Speaker 1: you know, the less he's able to create zone shot,

2081
01:41:04,720 --> 01:41:07,840
Speaker 1: the less he's able to to really kind of get,

2082
01:41:08,560 --> 01:41:13,320
Speaker 1: you know, kind of jump and lift sometimes, and it

2083
01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:16,120
Speaker 1: makes it difficult, and it just just it's just it's

2084
01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:19,080
Speaker 1: it's what age does to you. Age and injuries. And

2085
01:41:19,120 --> 01:41:21,200
Speaker 1: I don't think it means they get rid of Clay

2086
01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:22,599
Speaker 1: or got to move on from Clay. It's just it's

2087
01:41:22,640 --> 01:41:25,160
Speaker 1: just it's just sportsman like. It's what happens when you

2088
01:41:25,160 --> 01:41:28,479
Speaker 1: get old. You just become a little bit less of

2089
01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:34,040
Speaker 1: yourself and you become, you know, uh, not the player

2090
01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:37,040
Speaker 1: that you can you were once expected to be. And

2091
01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:40,080
Speaker 1: that's what happened to Clay. It doesn't mean to me,

2092
01:41:40,200 --> 01:41:42,840
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean much more than that. Like, I don't

2093
01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:44,800
Speaker 1: really take much away from it. I don't think Clay's

2094
01:41:44,840 --> 01:41:46,519
Speaker 1: a bomb. I don't think. You know, it's just it's

2095
01:41:46,560 --> 01:41:48,280
Speaker 1: just you know what I mean, Like, it's just it's

2096
01:41:48,360 --> 01:41:50,160
Speaker 1: it's just it's just it's just different.

2097
01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:54,320
Speaker 2: Now for the time, never loses, it never does. And Okay,

2098
01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:56,120
Speaker 2: and the question I had that now Golden State has

2099
01:41:56,120 --> 01:41:57,439
Speaker 2: to go back to the joy would say, what are

2100
01:41:57,439 --> 01:42:00,720
Speaker 2: they going to do today? Resign Draymond, like Thompson has

2101
01:42:00,720 --> 01:42:02,960
Speaker 2: gone public he said he wants a max contract. Is

2102
01:42:02,960 --> 01:42:04,479
Speaker 2: you're got to get a max contract. So you've got

2103
01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:07,000
Speaker 2: to believe there's gonna be some changes there in Golden State.

2104
01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:12,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think you can, you know, max contract, Draymond,

2105
01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:16,600
Speaker 1: I don't think so. The thing about you know, the

2106
01:42:16,960 --> 01:42:21,639
Speaker 1: Warriors is they were supposed to have this young core,

2107
01:42:21,840 --> 01:42:27,080
Speaker 1: this this Pool Kaminga Wiggins, that was supposed to be

2108
01:42:27,160 --> 01:42:31,280
Speaker 1: the next core that when this current group, this Curry

2109
01:42:31,360 --> 01:42:35,320
Speaker 1: Draymond Clay group left, this was the next group, and

2110
01:42:35,479 --> 01:42:37,040
Speaker 1: they just they haven't become.

2111
01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:39,960
Speaker 2: That group, right and Curry will be thirty six next year,

2112
01:42:39,960 --> 01:42:40,800
Speaker 2: which he's no kid.

2113
01:42:41,320 --> 01:42:45,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's I think a big, a big reason

2114
01:42:45,160 --> 01:42:47,599
Speaker 1: why they are where they're at is that that core

2115
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:51,280
Speaker 1: just never really materialize into something special.

2116
01:42:52,320 --> 01:42:55,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, they'll have a long, long road to hoe. I mean,

2117
01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:58,639
Speaker 2: I don't see them being that competitive and used to come.

2118
01:42:58,720 --> 01:43:00,200
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a shame the way they went out,

2119
01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:02,120
Speaker 2: but they went out. And I like what you mention,

2120
01:43:02,160 --> 01:43:04,960
Speaker 2: because you happen to catch that Draymond laughing after the

2121
01:43:05,040 --> 01:43:07,479
Speaker 2: game and Corey, I remember, he's had his face wrapped

2122
01:43:07,520 --> 01:43:09,519
Speaker 2: up in a towel and he was upset. He was

2123
01:43:09,720 --> 01:43:12,479
Speaker 2: visibly upset. And that's the way a competitive should be.

2124
01:43:12,680 --> 01:43:15,920
Speaker 2: Should be upset you lose a playoff series, you're defending champs.

2125
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:18,519
Speaker 1: I agree.

2126
01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:22,000
Speaker 2: I'm with you, thank you, I am.

2127
01:43:22,560 --> 01:43:27,120
Speaker 1: It's sort of like like it's just kind of a

2128
01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:30,680
Speaker 1: a little bit of an old school like for me,

2129
01:43:30,840 --> 01:43:33,120
Speaker 1: Like I just kind of, you know, I wish the

2130
01:43:33,200 --> 01:43:37,000
Speaker 1: player sometimes would you know, still kind of like a

2131
01:43:37,040 --> 01:43:39,560
Speaker 1: little bit in them, you know, a little bit of

2132
01:43:41,120 --> 01:43:43,160
Speaker 1: after a game, it's okay to be angry, like you

2133
01:43:43,240 --> 01:43:45,960
Speaker 1: can tap up Lebron in the locker room after the game.

2134
01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:49,519
Speaker 2: Yeah. But it's it's more of a me, me me

2135
01:43:49,800 --> 01:43:52,320
Speaker 2: game than a team team, team game. I think. I mean,

2136
01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:56,280
Speaker 2: you see that the individuals just it's all about themselves

2137
01:43:56,400 --> 01:43:59,920
Speaker 2: right now, and you know it hurts. I think fans

2138
01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:01,040
Speaker 2: said that turned off by that.

2139
01:44:01,120 --> 01:44:01,560
Speaker 3: I really do.

2140
01:44:02,200 --> 01:44:04,880
Speaker 2: And we see that from in various sports, not just

2141
01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:06,840
Speaker 2: basketball all the time.

2142
01:44:07,160 --> 01:44:10,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, And I think that is again, like it's

2143
01:44:11,800 --> 01:44:15,240
Speaker 1: difficult for some of us they're older to understand that

2144
01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:16,120
Speaker 1: mentality a little bit.

2145
01:44:16,120 --> 01:44:18,320
Speaker 2: You know, have you ever played with someone who just

2146
01:44:18,640 --> 01:44:21,160
Speaker 2: had a meme me attitude, like, and the others on

2147
01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:22,559
Speaker 2: the team just kind of got them in the corner

2148
01:44:22,600 --> 01:44:23,280
Speaker 2: and straighten them out.

2149
01:44:26,280 --> 01:44:29,840
Speaker 1: I think sometimes it's hard to do that with those guys.

2150
01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:33,200
Speaker 1: They're not as you know, they're not as uh as.

2151
01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:36,160
Speaker 1: It's just hard sometimes to get those guys to kind.

2152
01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:41,400
Speaker 2: Of really see the light, see the light.

2153
01:44:41,439 --> 01:44:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of times the me me mean thing.

2154
01:44:45,320 --> 01:44:49,320
Speaker 1: You know, it's players who have done it really well

2155
01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:53,120
Speaker 1: in their career, and it's hard to get them to

2156
01:44:53,680 --> 01:44:56,000
Speaker 1: like to see that what they're doing is hurting the

2157
01:44:56,040 --> 01:45:02,000
Speaker 1: team because they're personally doing so well that that makes

2158
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:03,240
Speaker 1: it really difficult at times.

2159
01:45:04,400 --> 01:45:04,600
Speaker 3: You know.

2160
01:45:04,720 --> 01:45:06,840
Speaker 2: I just you would think someone would talk to them.

2161
01:45:06,880 --> 01:45:09,760
Speaker 2: I just think coaches right now, it's a different breed

2162
01:45:09,840 --> 01:45:12,400
Speaker 2: of coaches, it really is. I Mean, the Belichicks of

2163
01:45:12,479 --> 01:45:14,840
Speaker 2: the world did their old school, and he does it

2164
01:45:14,960 --> 01:45:17,880
Speaker 2: his way, and it seems to work the Patriot way.

2165
01:45:18,400 --> 01:45:20,280
Speaker 2: But the new coaches they want to be a buds.

2166
01:45:20,520 --> 01:45:22,400
Speaker 2: They want to be a buddy. You know, They're not

2167
01:45:22,439 --> 01:45:24,240
Speaker 2: going to get you and tell you the way, the

2168
01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:26,599
Speaker 2: way of the world, the way it should be, right,

2169
01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:27,800
Speaker 2: I mean, this is the way it is.

2170
01:45:28,120 --> 01:45:28,240
Speaker 5: Well.

2171
01:45:28,400 --> 01:45:30,360
Speaker 2: I think Andy Reid may be an old school kind

2172
01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:30,639
Speaker 2: of guy.

2173
01:45:31,040 --> 01:45:33,720
Speaker 1: I think he's a very he's a very old school guy.

2174
01:45:34,280 --> 01:45:36,599
Speaker 2: I mean, did does he set the rules pretty straight?

2175
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:40,320
Speaker 1: Well? So, ay Read is interesting. I think what has

2176
01:45:40,360 --> 01:45:42,080
Speaker 1: made any Read such a good coach over the years

2177
01:45:42,880 --> 01:45:48,880
Speaker 1: is he will He says something all the time and

2178
01:45:49,160 --> 01:45:50,640
Speaker 1: when I was there, he did this and if you

2179
01:45:50,680 --> 01:45:52,439
Speaker 1: listen to anyone talk about it, he still does this.

2180
01:45:53,120 --> 01:45:56,320
Speaker 1: He says to the players, I want you to show

2181
01:45:56,320 --> 01:46:00,599
Speaker 1: your personality, but I want you to do that obviously

2182
01:46:01,200 --> 01:46:04,679
Speaker 1: kind of within you know, the you know, the the team,

2183
01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:07,160
Speaker 1: kind of the as we do it as a team.

2184
01:46:07,720 --> 01:46:12,880
Speaker 1: But he is always always talking about, you know, I

2185
01:46:13,000 --> 01:46:16,000
Speaker 1: want players to be yourself, show your personality, let me

2186
01:46:16,040 --> 01:46:18,719
Speaker 1: see your personality. And that's different than a lot of coaches.

2187
01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:24,280
Speaker 1: He's very comfortable in players being who they are and

2188
01:46:24,360 --> 01:46:27,120
Speaker 1: I think that's important. But again, it's within the team

2189
01:46:27,600 --> 01:46:30,280
Speaker 1: building within the team aspect of it, but that he

2190
01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:32,599
Speaker 1: wants you to to you know, to show your personally,

2191
01:46:32,680 --> 01:46:35,680
Speaker 1: to be yourself. And that's different than a lot of

2192
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:39,720
Speaker 1: other coaches that don't quite feel that way. They're they're

2193
01:46:39,760 --> 01:46:42,080
Speaker 1: not as is you. They want you to to be

2194
01:46:42,240 --> 01:46:46,240
Speaker 1: kind of more rigid. He is always a bit open to,

2195
01:46:46,520 --> 01:46:49,400
Speaker 1: uh to let you know, to letting players be who

2196
01:46:49,400 --> 01:46:50,320
Speaker 1: they are now.

2197
01:46:50,439 --> 01:46:52,360
Speaker 2: Back in the day, there was a dress code. You know,

2198
01:46:52,640 --> 01:46:54,639
Speaker 2: most of these teams they travel, they wear blazers.

2199
01:46:54,920 --> 01:46:58,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you still have to wear I think that Jack

2200
01:46:58,479 --> 01:46:59,400
Speaker 1: when you travel.

2201
01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:05,559
Speaker 2: A sports really no tie though I don't think so, okay,

2202
01:47:05,640 --> 01:47:08,080
Speaker 2: but still that's that's that's strange because I don't think

2203
01:47:08,320 --> 01:47:10,040
Speaker 2: I don't think a lot of teams. Do you see

2204
01:47:10,080 --> 01:47:11,160
Speaker 2: a lot of these teams coffin.

2205
01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:13,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, well with Coffin to wear jacket and tie.

2206
01:47:13,840 --> 01:47:18,400
Speaker 2: Am you know, does it make a difference. I don't know.

2207
01:47:18,520 --> 01:47:20,719
Speaker 2: I think it does. I think it does a little

2208
01:47:20,760 --> 01:47:23,080
Speaker 2: bit subconsciously. I think it makes a difference to the

2209
01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:26,639
Speaker 2: athlete knowing that he's a pro, he's a business trip,

2210
01:47:26,720 --> 01:47:29,640
Speaker 2: he's going there for a certain purpose. I think it

2211
01:47:29,760 --> 01:47:30,839
Speaker 2: really does make a difference.

2212
01:47:32,880 --> 01:47:38,160
Speaker 1: It probably it probably oh, no, man, I think I

2213
01:47:38,240 --> 01:47:38,800
Speaker 1: think it makes a.

2214
01:47:38,760 --> 01:47:40,320
Speaker 2: Difference in school. I tell you why. When I was

2215
01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:42,360
Speaker 2: in high school didn't have to wear a tie, but

2216
01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:44,479
Speaker 2: I had to wear a college shirt. I see these

2217
01:47:44,560 --> 01:47:47,040
Speaker 2: kids wearing hoodies and T shirts. Now, I think that

2218
01:47:47,200 --> 01:47:51,719
Speaker 2: the education, the learning process suffers when you're not dressed

2219
01:47:51,840 --> 01:47:53,880
Speaker 2: to the part. Maybe I'm wrong. I just think this

2220
01:47:54,160 --> 01:47:57,120
Speaker 2: is a factor when you get dressed with business. That's

2221
01:47:57,120 --> 01:47:57,560
Speaker 2: the way it is.

2222
01:47:58,160 --> 01:47:59,479
Speaker 1: We didn't have a dress code when I was in

2223
01:47:59,560 --> 01:48:02,240
Speaker 1: high school, so I may aster to survive.

2224
01:48:02,760 --> 01:48:03,719
Speaker 2: You can wear a T shirt.

2225
01:48:04,160 --> 01:48:06,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, really, wherever you want. I mean no, I mean

2226
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:08,120
Speaker 1: you couldn't you. We didn't have a uniform.

2227
01:48:08,120 --> 01:48:12,160
Speaker 2: I should say, interesting, Well, yeah, should have went to

2228
01:48:12,160 --> 01:48:13,920
Speaker 2: your high school. There we go. By the way, he's

2235
01:48:31,920 --> 01:48:34,880
Speaker 2: next season. But first, here's a guy always has an impact,

2236
01:48:34,960 --> 01:48:36,639
Speaker 2: Kevin Wyatt with all your sports.

2237
01:48:36,840 --> 01:48:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2238
01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:39,679
Speaker 5: The impact being felt this weekend is in the NBA

2239
01:48:39,800 --> 01:48:43,680
Speaker 5: because the Phoenix Suns have fired Monty Williams, as he

2240
01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:45,439
Speaker 5: was the NBA Coach of the Year just a year

2241
01:48:45,520 --> 01:48:49,519
Speaker 5: ago when they win a franchise record sixty four and eighteen.

2242
01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:51,320
Speaker 5: He had a six to twenty eight winning percentage in

2243
01:48:51,400 --> 01:48:54,400
Speaker 5: the regular season across four years, took the Sons to

2244
01:48:54,439 --> 01:48:57,880
Speaker 5: the NBA Finals in twenty twenty one, but after the

2245
01:48:57,960 --> 01:49:00,720
Speaker 5: trade for Kevin Durant this season, they fell short to

2246
01:49:00,760 --> 01:49:04,439
Speaker 5: the Denver Nuggets, and with the high expectations, Matti Shpia

2247
01:49:05,680 --> 01:49:08,639
Speaker 5: saw fit two part ways and move in a different direction.

2248
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:11,400
Speaker 5: But you got to imagine Monti Williams being the top

2249
01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:14,080
Speaker 5: coaching candidate, at least one of the top coaching candidates

2250
01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:18,160
Speaker 5: as we head into the NBA off season. Big Game

2251

Speaker 5: Baseball Dodgers four to two win over the Padres J D.

2259
01:49:47,560 --> 01:49:50,960
Speaker 5: Martinez with a home run for Los Angeles. The Angels

2260
01:49:51,040 --> 01:49:54,400
Speaker 5: blown it against the Guardians, as Cleveland six runs in

2261
01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:56,240
Speaker 5: the bottom of the eighth inning to win it eight six.

2262
01:49:57,400 --> 01:49:59,760
Speaker 5: The Yankees get two home runs from Aaron Judge. They

2263
01:49:59,800 --> 01:50:02,799
Speaker 5: had out Tampa Bay Tampa Bay nine to eight despite

2264
01:50:02,840 --> 01:50:06,160
Speaker 5: trailing six nothing in the fifth inning. Cardinals get a

2265
01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:08,479
Speaker 5: three to one, three run rally in the ninth inning

2266
01:50:08,520 --> 01:50:10,840
Speaker 5: to beat the Red Sox four to three. And the

2267
01:50:10,920 --> 01:50:13,480
Speaker 5: Mets Nationals game is a bit of a fiasco, suspended

2268
01:50:13,560 --> 01:50:16,880
Speaker 5: by rain until today with Washington leading one nothing in

2269
01:50:16,960 --> 01:50:19,439
Speaker 5: the third inning, but it was four hours of a

2270
01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:21,640
Speaker 5: rain delay before the Nats actually made the announcement that

2271
01:50:21,720 --> 01:50:24,920
Speaker 5: there'd be a resumption of the play. Resumption of play

2272
01:50:25,479 --> 01:50:27,839
Speaker 5: the next day. Back to you guys, Thank.

Speaker 2: You, keV. Have a great day. Okay, here we go.

2274
01:50:29,560 --> 01:50:32,080
Speaker 2: We're gonna do some primetime right now, and we have

2275
01:50:32,240 --> 01:50:34,920
Speaker 2: the Blame game coming up in about eight nine minutes

2276
01:50:34,920 --> 01:50:37,599
Speaker 2: from now. I'm gonna use Jeff Schwartz because he played

2277
01:50:37,600 --> 01:50:40,120
Speaker 2: in the NFL. He knows the game more than anybody

2278
01:50:40,160 --> 01:50:42,479
Speaker 2: else I know, all right, and I'm gonna give him

2279
01:50:42,479 --> 01:50:44,760
Speaker 2: some of these primetime games. He'll tell me what to

2280
01:50:44,840 --> 01:50:47,080
Speaker 2: look for, which one he likes the best, and we'll roll.

2281
01:50:47,080 --> 01:50:48,519
Speaker 2: Are you ready for that? I got the list.

2282
01:50:48,680 --> 01:50:49,040
Speaker 1: Let's do it.

2283
01:50:49,120 --> 01:50:53,720
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, Week number one, Prime Time Lions Chiefs. That's

2284
01:50:53,760 --> 01:50:56,040
Speaker 2: the Thursday. The Thursday night came the first game on

2285
01:50:56,280 --> 01:51:00,840
Speaker 2: NBC Lions Chiefs, Piggy winners, pick winners. What do you

2286
01:51:01,000 --> 01:51:01,879
Speaker 2: like about his surprise?

2287
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:07,639
Speaker 1: I mean again, the Week one game is always about

2288
01:51:08,320 --> 01:51:11,719
Speaker 1: trying to find a win for the for the championship team,

2289
01:51:12,520 --> 01:51:16,640
Speaker 1: but make the gain competitive, right, and so it's their

2290
01:51:16,680 --> 01:51:19,800
Speaker 1: fairbye Chiefs fairbite seven, I believe is opening line. So again,

2291
01:51:20,120 --> 01:51:23,280
Speaker 1: competitive game, but the Chiefs win. That's what NFL want,

2292
01:51:23,360 --> 01:51:26,000
Speaker 1: and I think that's what they'll get here. But playing

2293
01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:29,800
Speaker 1: the Chiefs in Week one is terrible. It's bad for

2294
01:51:30,120 --> 01:51:33,559
Speaker 1: the opponent. The Chiefs with Pat Mahomes averages thirty six

2295
01:51:33,920 --> 01:51:36,720
Speaker 1: thirty seven point eight points a game and their five

2296
01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:37,559
Speaker 1: opening games.

2297
01:51:37,400 --> 01:51:38,599
Speaker 2: And they're playing in Kansas City.

2298
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:40,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course they raise the bad.

2299
01:51:40,479 --> 01:51:42,439
Speaker 2: Sunday Night football that same week, which I have no

2300
01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:45,200
Speaker 2: idea what this game is on the Cowboys of the Giants,

2301
01:51:45,240 --> 01:51:48,240
Speaker 2: which is a traditional game, of course, but I don't

2302
01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:49,320
Speaker 2: care what the Calviny.

2303
01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:50,200
Speaker 1: Two playoff teams last year.

2304
01:51:50,280 --> 01:51:53,880
Speaker 2: Right, Oh, come on, really, there's gotta be something better

2305
01:51:53,920 --> 01:51:57,880
Speaker 2: than that. But I guess they start slow and move up.

2306
01:51:57,960 --> 01:51:59,200
Speaker 2: I guess crescendo.

2307
01:52:00,120 --> 01:52:00,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

2308
01:52:00,280 --> 01:52:02,320
Speaker 2: I mean it's one of those games that if I

2309
01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:04,840
Speaker 2: didn't watch it, I don't think i'd miss anything. But

2310
01:52:04,920 --> 01:52:05,839
Speaker 2: I'll watch it anyway.

2311
01:52:07,320 --> 01:52:11,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna watch every game, so I want

2312
01:52:11,240 --> 01:52:11,720
Speaker 1: to all of them.

2313
01:52:13,120 --> 01:52:13,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

2314
01:52:13,520 --> 01:52:18,720
Speaker 1: Look, Giants obviously again off a playoff, the Cowboys off

2315
01:52:18,760 --> 01:52:21,240
Speaker 1: a playoff appearance. I mean makes sense. NFC easiest game

2316
01:52:21,320 --> 01:52:26,040
Speaker 1: up was going to be a huge, hugely watched, watched contest.

2317
01:52:26,080 --> 01:52:31,840
Speaker 2: I should say, yeah, okay, well I hear, I'll watch it. Okay,

2318
01:52:32,160 --> 01:52:34,560
Speaker 2: Now we have the Monday night game. Finally there's a

2319
01:52:34,720 --> 01:52:37,080
Speaker 2: big time Monday night game. All right, there's gonna be

2320
01:52:37,120 --> 01:52:39,599
Speaker 2: a big weekend in New York because the Cowboys are

2321
01:52:39,600 --> 01:52:42,240
Speaker 2: at the Giants on Sunday and Monday night the Bills

2322
01:52:42,280 --> 01:52:44,880
Speaker 2: are at the Jets, and that's in New York as well.

2323
01:52:44,960 --> 01:52:47,960
Speaker 2: So we've got Aaron Rodgers making his debut on nine

2324
01:52:47,960 --> 01:52:49,800
Speaker 2: to eleven, no less, so it'll be a lot of

2325
01:52:49,840 --> 01:52:53,759
Speaker 2: celebrations that night, nine to eleven Jets at home against

2326
01:52:54,120 --> 01:52:57,960
Speaker 2: the Bills. And you know, really this Jets team could

2327
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:00,800
Speaker 2: do some damage this year because the Bill still rely

2328
01:53:01,120 --> 01:53:04,400
Speaker 2: on their quarterback Josh Allen has their main runner. You know,

2329
01:53:04,479 --> 01:53:06,479
Speaker 2: I don't think they've done anything to improve their run game.

2330
01:53:07,120 --> 01:53:11,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like what I like their addition of Dalgson Gincaid,

2331
01:53:13,240 --> 01:53:15,800
Speaker 1: but yeah, it's in the bill. So the Bills three

2332
01:53:15,920 --> 01:53:19,760
Speaker 1: years ago lost the Chiefs in Kansas City in the

2333
01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:23,160
Speaker 1: Anty championship game. Two years ago, two playoffs ago, they

2334
01:53:23,200 --> 01:53:25,120
Speaker 1: lost the Chiefs in the divisional round, right that that

2335
01:53:25,320 --> 01:53:28,559
Speaker 1: that crazy overtime game. And last year they lost at

2336
01:53:28,640 --> 01:53:31,960
Speaker 1: home in the divisional round. So they're kind of gone

2337
01:53:32,040 --> 01:53:35,640
Speaker 1: like backwards, their backsliding. The Jets know, to me, like,

2338
01:53:35,760 --> 01:53:39,840
Speaker 1: I just I don't know by the Rogers thing, man,

2339
01:53:39,880 --> 01:53:43,160
Speaker 1: I just I don't really think it's gonna it's any

2340
01:53:43,600 --> 01:53:45,920
Speaker 1: It's super Bowl or bust. I know, Jets fans say,

2341
01:53:45,960 --> 01:53:48,200
Speaker 1: we have been at playoffs in twelve years. It's playoffs

2342
01:53:48,280 --> 01:53:54,000
Speaker 1: or bust. Yeah, traded for Rogers to win the championship

2343
01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:57,080
Speaker 1: like it's it's to me it's super Bowl. It's at

2344
01:53:57,160 --> 01:54:00,640
Speaker 1: least at the minimum anti champions Game or bust. That

2345
01:54:01,080 --> 01:54:05,680
Speaker 1: could be tough, unlikely to happen. You know, I know

2346
01:54:05,800 --> 01:54:08,120
Speaker 1: what he's getting into. But again, when he was in

2347
01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:11,320
Speaker 1: the NFC, what quarterbacks did he have a competition?

2348
01:54:11,880 --> 01:54:15,600
Speaker 2: He was the man? Right now he's not the man, correct, right?

2349
01:54:16,360 --> 01:54:16,559
Speaker 1: Yeah?

2350
01:54:17,240 --> 01:54:20,559
Speaker 2: So I mean, look like you said, I'm looking at

2351
01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:23,080
Speaker 2: team records. I've changed my mind now you taught me

2352
01:54:23,280 --> 01:54:25,679
Speaker 2: I'm looking at quarterbacks. Who are you playing as quarterbacks?

2353
01:54:25,920 --> 01:54:27,120
Speaker 1: That way to do it?

2354
01:54:27,240 --> 01:54:27,360
Speaker 3: Right?

2355
01:54:27,439 --> 01:54:31,960
Speaker 2: Like right it is and quarterbacks. Yeah, the records mean

2356
01:54:32,040 --> 01:54:34,680
Speaker 2: nothing because if I'm looking at team's record from last year,

2357
01:54:34,680 --> 01:54:37,760
Speaker 2: they've improved. Most teams, at least I think they've improved,

2358
01:54:37,960 --> 01:54:40,160
Speaker 2: you know, through the draft, trade, whatever may be, free

2359
01:54:40,200 --> 01:54:45,480
Speaker 2: agency exactly. Yes, So who knows what Week two this is.

2360
01:54:45,680 --> 01:54:48,840
Speaker 2: This is a pretty good matchup. Uh, Eagles are at

2361
01:54:48,880 --> 01:54:53,120
Speaker 2: home Thursday night Football Vikings at Eagles and you just

2362
01:54:53,200 --> 01:54:55,520
Speaker 2: don't know what you have with Kirk Cousins. But he

2363
01:54:55,640 --> 01:54:57,760
Speaker 2: may very well be the number one quarterback of the

2364
01:54:57,880 --> 01:54:59,880
Speaker 2: NFC right now, because you don't know what's happening. A

2365
01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:02,240
Speaker 2: San Francisco and Brock party will come back.

2366
01:55:03,480 --> 01:55:06,400
Speaker 1: Never bet on Cousins in primetime. Just always bet the

2367
01:55:06,400 --> 01:55:08,520
Speaker 1: opposite of that. So I if the Vikings are in

2368
01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:09,960
Speaker 1: prime time, to just take the other team.

2369
01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:14,960
Speaker 2: So take the Eagles. Yes, Dolphins at the Patriots. That's

2370
01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:19,000
Speaker 2: Sunday Night football the second week. You know. The Patriots, it's.

2371
01:55:19,560 --> 01:55:22,840
Speaker 1: I think are just not an exciting team.

2372
01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:25,840
Speaker 2: No, they're not. They grind, you know, they're like they're

2373
01:55:25,880 --> 01:55:28,879
Speaker 2: like the old Ohio State football teams. Just run the football,

2374
01:55:28,960 --> 01:55:29,240
Speaker 2: run the.

2375
01:55:29,240 --> 01:55:32,040
Speaker 1: Football, like when you have when you have like all

2376
01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:35,720
Speaker 1: these other options to watch the NFL, like Mac Jones

2377
01:55:35,720 --> 01:55:37,000
Speaker 1: doesn't really do it for you, does it.

2378
01:55:37,400 --> 01:55:37,440
Speaker 3: No?

2379
01:55:37,960 --> 01:55:42,600
Speaker 1: No, that's just that's I think what the Patriots up against.

2380
01:55:43,080 --> 01:55:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Monday Night again, it's not really a winner.

2381
01:55:46,080 --> 01:55:48,320
Speaker 2: The Saints at the Panthers. You may want to watch

2382
01:55:48,640 --> 01:55:51,160
Speaker 2: Bryce Young to see what he's doing, But Saints that

2383
01:55:51,280 --> 01:55:53,240
Speaker 2: Panthers doesn't do much for me either, does it?

2384
01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:53,480
Speaker 3: No?

2385
01:55:54,320 --> 01:55:54,920
Speaker 1: No, nothing for me.

2386
01:55:55,000 --> 01:55:56,760
Speaker 2: Okay, well I got that double ahead of that monthy

2387
01:55:56,800 --> 01:55:58,840
Speaker 2: Brown Steelers. That should be a goodie. We got to

2388
01:55:58,880 --> 01:56:01,520
Speaker 2: see Deshaun Watson, you know, a year under his belt,

2389
01:56:01,960 --> 01:56:04,960
Speaker 2: no problems in the off season. See what he could do?

2390
01:56:05,040 --> 01:56:07,840
Speaker 2: Pretty good receiving course. So Brown Steele's come, I'm.

2391
01:56:07,880 --> 01:56:10,400
Speaker 1: A fan of divisional games. And was that a week two?

2392
01:56:10,440 --> 01:56:10,840
Speaker 2: You said?

2393
01:56:11,280 --> 01:56:13,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, that's better. I'm not a fan of the

2394
01:56:13,160 --> 01:56:14,640
Speaker 1: division games a week one? We two's five?

2395
01:56:15,040 --> 01:56:17,760

01:56:52,760 --> 01:56:54,920
Speaker 2: at Fox Sports Radio. But right now it's time to

2407
01:56:54,960 --> 01:56:57,760
Speaker 2: play the blain games. Let's play wor with me.

2408
01:56:58,000 --> 01:57:00,840
Speaker 4: It's all your fault, it's your fault.

2409
01:57:01,040 --> 01:57:02,360
Speaker 1: What is all your fault.

2410
01:57:05,880 --> 01:57:07,440
Speaker 2: Maybe it's everyone's.

2411
01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:12,000
Speaker 8: Faults the liar. That's why there's the blame game. Let's

2412
01:57:12,040 --> 01:57:16,560
Speaker 8: figure out who to blame. Here is the big e

2413
01:57:17,200 --> 01:57:18,600
Speaker 8: blaming him? We blame you.

2414
01:57:19,920 --> 01:57:20,520
Speaker 2: He's a liar.

2415
01:57:20,680 --> 01:57:23,760
Speaker 3: It's always me, It's always me. All right, here we go.

2416
01:57:24,760 --> 01:57:27,960
Speaker 3: We're gonna start off easy. Who is to blame for

2417
01:57:28,120 --> 01:57:33,000
Speaker 3: Brownie James committing to USC? What?

2418
01:57:33,440 --> 01:57:33,480
Speaker 2: What?

2419
01:57:33,640 --> 01:57:34,560
Speaker 1: What is the blame?

2420
01:57:34,640 --> 01:57:37,320
Speaker 3: Like? So like the blame would be like, you know,

2421
01:57:37,680 --> 01:57:40,800
Speaker 3: was it you know, biased commitment? Did someone tell him

2422
01:57:40,840 --> 01:57:41,320
Speaker 3: to commit?

2423
01:57:42,440 --> 01:57:44,800
Speaker 1: I think Los Angeles gives him the best opportunity for

2424
01:57:45,480 --> 01:57:47,480
Speaker 1: names like this and to be with his family still,

2425
01:57:47,560 --> 01:57:48,440
Speaker 1: so it makes sense.

2426
01:57:49,760 --> 01:57:51,600
Speaker 2: I would say this. I think that there was a

2427
01:57:51,640 --> 01:57:53,520
Speaker 2: real good chance he was going to go to Ohio State.

2428
01:57:53,600 --> 01:57:55,880
Speaker 2: Ohio State really wanted him. I think the fact that

2429
01:57:55,960 --> 01:57:59,040
Speaker 2: he's home and he lives in LA I think it's

2430
01:57:59,240 --> 01:58:02,400
Speaker 2: only a naturally goes to USC. I don't think Mick

2431
01:58:02,480 --> 01:58:04,720
Speaker 2: Kroner the UCLA could have handled Brownie James.

2432
01:58:05,040 --> 01:58:06,960
Speaker 1: And you know what, I don't think you said I

2433
01:58:07,000 --> 01:58:07,840
Speaker 1: was even recruiting him.

2434
01:58:08,440 --> 01:58:10,840
Speaker 2: Maybe so, But I will say this, if I'm a coach,

2435
01:58:11,320 --> 01:58:13,600
Speaker 2: I'm not so certain I want to have Bronnie James

2436
01:58:13,880 --> 01:58:17,600
Speaker 2: on my roster for fear of Lebron kind of meddling.

2437
01:58:17,920 --> 01:58:20,480
Speaker 2: That's the problem. I don't know if he will or not,

2438
01:58:20,600 --> 01:58:23,200
Speaker 2: but there's always that chance, right, I.

2439
01:58:23,320 --> 01:58:26,440
Speaker 1: Think what bron Lebron? Again, we only know what we

2440
01:58:26,480 --> 01:58:28,880
Speaker 1: know in public. He seems like a really really good parent.

2441
01:58:30,600 --> 01:58:33,160
Speaker 1: And I don't think he's gonna meddle and his son, Like.

2442
01:58:33,240 --> 01:58:36,080
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna just tell in the infield

2443
01:58:36,120 --> 01:58:38,920
Speaker 1: the USC coach what to do with this kid, how

2444
01:58:38,960 --> 01:58:40,760
Speaker 1: to play this kid. I don't think that's gonna happen.

2445
01:58:40,760 --> 01:58:43,080
Speaker 1: I think he's just gonna I think he's gonna just

2446
01:58:43,200 --> 01:58:46,320
Speaker 1: be a dad watching his watch his kid play sports.

2447
01:58:47,520 --> 01:58:49,680
Speaker 2: I we'll see what happens if if that, you know,

2448
01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:52,440
Speaker 2: it is a possibility he may transfer through you, right.

2449
01:58:52,600 --> 01:58:56,200
Speaker 1: I mean you an NBA. He's not transparent to other school.

2450
01:58:56,040 --> 01:58:56,880
Speaker 2: But you don't think he would.

2451
01:58:56,920 --> 01:59:01,120
Speaker 3: Well see, all right, that's a Game seven for the

2452
01:59:01,240 --> 01:59:04,680
Speaker 3: Sixers Celtics today. But back to Game six real quick?

2453
01:59:04,960 --> 01:59:09,040
Speaker 3: Who's to blame for the terrible Sixers Game six loss?

2454
01:59:12,320 --> 01:59:16,800
Speaker 1: Doc Rivers? I mean everyone, I mean and Beads upset

2455
01:59:16,800 --> 01:59:18,280
Speaker 1: he didn't get the ball down the stretch. Right, he's

2456
01:59:18,280 --> 01:59:22,240
Speaker 1: like made that public, like, so not getting beat the

2457
01:59:22,280 --> 01:59:25,160
Speaker 1: ball down the stretch. Maybe there we go. That's why there.

2458
01:59:25,400 --> 01:59:27,360
Speaker 2: You know, you could blame the players. And I think

2459
01:59:27,400 --> 01:59:30,000
Speaker 2: that if you're an intelligent individual like Jeff schwartz is

2460
01:59:30,040 --> 01:59:32,640
Speaker 2: he did blame embiid not getting the ball to him,

2461
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:36,240
Speaker 2: that's test the logical, intelligent way to go. But I

2462
01:59:36,320 --> 01:59:39,760
Speaker 2: think the masses will blame Doc Rivers because the coach

2463
01:59:39,840 --> 01:59:42,000
Speaker 2: is always the guy who's responsible. So you know what,

2464
01:59:42,320 --> 01:59:44,680
Speaker 2: I'm part of the masses. I'm blaming Doc Rivers. Should

2465
01:59:44,720 --> 01:59:46,840
Speaker 2: have closed the game out, should have wont it? Huh?

2466
01:59:47,600 --> 01:59:50,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's because it's easy to blame him.

2467
01:59:50,080 --> 01:59:53,520
Speaker 1: But oh that's in this spot. I mean, get you know,

2468
01:59:53,760 --> 01:59:55,720
Speaker 1: let's get him beat the ball here, everybody, get him

2469
01:59:55,720 --> 01:59:56,000
Speaker 1: the ball.

2470
01:59:56,480 --> 01:59:57,240
Speaker 3: I'm on your team.

2471
01:59:57,400 --> 01:59:58,880
Speaker 2: Let's get him the ball, all right.

2472
02:00:00,120 --> 02:00:03,000
Speaker 3: This is an interesting one. I was reading a study

2473
02:00:03,080 --> 02:00:06,960
Speaker 3: on USA today that a lot more athletes are feeling

2474
02:00:06,960 --> 02:00:11,000
Speaker 3: a lot more pressure because of the media and social

2475
02:00:11,120 --> 02:00:16,400
Speaker 3: media nowadays, more than studies they had from the nineties

2476
02:00:16,480 --> 02:00:19,920
Speaker 3: in the eighties. Who's to blame for this and what's

2477
02:00:19,960 --> 02:00:23,480
Speaker 3: your guys opinion on this? On this whole topic, I.

2478
02:00:23,480 --> 02:00:25,360
Speaker 1: Mean, it's probably true. I mean, there's no I don't know.

2479
02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:28,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a blame. It's just a society, man.

2480
02:00:28,600 --> 02:00:31,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot more access to players now, social media,

2481
02:00:32,640 --> 02:00:35,560
Speaker 1: you know, the I think wagering. I love the wager obviously,

2482
02:00:35,600 --> 02:00:37,280
Speaker 1: but I think, you know, people get really fired up

2483
02:00:37,280 --> 02:00:39,000
Speaker 1: if they are losing wagers based on the way the

2484
02:00:39,040 --> 02:00:43,480
Speaker 1: athlete's playing. So to me, I think all those factors

2485
02:00:43,800 --> 02:00:46,440
Speaker 1: playing to it. But I don't only anyone's to blame, man,

2486
02:00:46,600 --> 02:00:48,320
Speaker 1: It's just it just this is what life is now.

2487
02:00:48,680 --> 02:00:50,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. It's the way in the world.

2488
02:00:50,040 --> 02:00:51,880
Speaker 2: That's basically what it is. I mean, if you don't

2489
02:00:51,960 --> 02:00:52,160
Speaker 2: like it.

2490
02:00:52,440 --> 02:00:52,920
Speaker 1: Live with it.

2491
02:00:53,480 --> 02:00:55,200
Speaker 2: Live with it. That's the way it is. You want

2492
02:00:55,240 --> 02:00:57,320
Speaker 2: to play pro sports, you got to suck it up

2493
02:00:57,480 --> 02:01:02,680
Speaker 2: because that's part of pro sports. Social media, criticism, talk radio, newspapers,

2494
02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:05,080
Speaker 2: whatever it may be. That's what it is. Live with it.

2495
02:01:05,680 --> 02:01:06,160
Speaker 1: I agree.

2496
02:01:07,960 --> 02:01:08,720
Speaker 3: All right, there you go.

2497
02:01:08,920 --> 02:01:11,480
Speaker 2: I like that, Andy, Thank you, Thank you.

2498
02:01:12,760 --> 02:01:15,920
Speaker 3: Going on to the NFL, you guys talked about today

2499
02:01:16,080 --> 02:01:18,640
Speaker 3: how some of the schedules didn't make a lot of sense,

2500
02:01:18,720 --> 02:01:22,240
Speaker 3: like the Eagles or you know, the Jets or Aaron Rodgers. Now,

2501
02:01:22,920 --> 02:01:27,440
Speaker 3: so who's the blame for these uh A little huge schedules?

2502
02:01:29,880 --> 02:01:32,160
Speaker 1: The good one, dude, Oh, it was the blame. I

2503
02:01:32,200 --> 02:01:35,320
Speaker 1: mean I think that they the fan, the consumption by

2504
02:01:35,320 --> 02:01:37,800
Speaker 1: the fans who want who want Aaron Rodgers in primetime? Right,

2505
02:01:37,840 --> 02:01:39,560
Speaker 1: I mean it's the fans who watch these games.

2506
02:01:41,200 --> 02:01:43,400
Speaker 2: You know. I hear what you're saying. And there's a

2507
02:01:43,440 --> 02:01:45,400
Speaker 2: good reason why the Jets are on primetime so many

2508
02:01:45,480 --> 02:01:48,800
Speaker 2: times because Aaron Rodgers. Right, if you have a selling point,

2509
02:01:48,880 --> 02:01:51,040
Speaker 2: which he is, you're gonna be on prime time. But

2510
02:01:51,680 --> 02:01:55,400
Speaker 2: tell me why the Chicago Bears are on primetime four times?

2511
02:01:55,640 --> 02:01:58,720
Speaker 2: Tell me why even the Dallas cowboy I know, America's

2512
02:01:58,760 --> 02:02:01,680
Speaker 2: team Dallas and the big don't. They shouldn't be there.

2513
02:02:02,000 --> 02:02:04,440
Speaker 2: They really shouldn't. So I don't know who you play.

2514
02:02:04,520 --> 02:02:07,080
Speaker 2: I guess the schedule maker or the fact that Chicago's

2515
02:02:07,080 --> 02:02:09,360
Speaker 2: in the larger market. That's why they're on prime time

2516
02:02:09,400 --> 02:02:09,920
Speaker 2: four times.

2517
02:02:10,720 --> 02:02:11,880
Speaker 1: All those are the reasons why.

2518
02:02:12,480 --> 02:02:12,840
Speaker 2: I guess.

2519
02:02:13,040 --> 02:02:14,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, good stuff today, guys.

2520
02:02:15,160 --> 02:02:18,280
Speaker 2: That's it. Well, thank you, have a great way. Have
