Speaker 2: I know you do.

15
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 3: Patty's there, yes.

16
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 2: Yes, Selections Sunday and Saint Patty's Day of course, And

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: I did a little history lesson for everybody because I

18
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 2: want to know when is it? How did it start?

19
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 2: Saint Patrick's Day was originally celebrated in Ireland, obviously with

20
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 2: religious services feast in honor of Saint Patrick, one of

21
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: Ireland's patron saints. Now when Irish immigrants brought Saint Patrick's

22
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 2: State traditions to the US of A. Did they evolved

23
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 2: into a secular celebration of iris culture, which I guess

24
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 2: is corn beef and cabbage. I don't know why corn

25
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 2: beef and cabbage. I mean, you could pick other items

26
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: to eat than corn beef and cabbage, but I guess

27
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 2: that's the food of the day today. And it's also

28
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: Selection Sunday. And what happened to your North Carolina tartills

29
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 2: yesterday to NC State? What happened I was thinking of you?

30
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 4: Look, man, I stayed out played them. I mean I

31
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: could say a whole bunch of things. Stayed out played them,

32
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 4: Like in a situation in a one and done, single

33
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 4: elimination tournament, you got to bring it every day. And

34
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 4: for whatever reason, in the final of the ACC tournament,

35
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 4: they didn't play their best game in NCY State deserved

36
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 4: a way.

37
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, they sure did. It was kind of crazy days

38
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 2: yesterday that Wisconsint game in overtime. I was a tremendous

39
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: game as well. But you know what, so much going

40
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 2: on selection son. They We'll get to that a little

41
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: later on, but right now, at the eleventh hour, we

42
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 2: have a story, a late breaking one obviously. Really it

43
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 2: happened late last night the Chicago Bears. They finally got

44
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: rid of him. Really, I think there was so much

45
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: pressure to get rid of Justin Fields they just had

46
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 2: to do it. But I'm sort of shocked he went

47
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 2: to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Steelers in the twenty twenty five

48
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: sixth round pick that converts to a fourth round selection.

49
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: It feels plays get this fifty one percent of the

50
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 2: snaps this year. A source confirmed this. Now, I don't

51
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: think he will. And here's the question Number one, Bucket Brooks,

52
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 2: how surprise were you that he went to Pittsburgh. I'm

53
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: not surprised he was traded, but surprised he went to

54
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh after they get Russell Wilson.

55
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 4: Not surprised, not surprised at all, because I think the look,

56
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 4: I think there have been some buzz come out of Pittsburgh,

57
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: but that they wanted Justin Fields in some way, shape

58
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 4: or form. And what I think is after they were

59
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 4: able to get Russell Wilson and after Kenny Pickett was dismissed,

60
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 4: I think it opened up a huge void in the

61
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 4: quarterback room for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I feel like the

62
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 4: Chicago Bears did Justin feels a solid by just sending

63
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 4: him away for a six round pick, because it's a

64
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 4: better situation than maybe some of the other things that

65
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 4: they got. For the Pittsburgh Steelers, I think all of

66
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 4: these moves are low risk moves. They're paying the total

67
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 4: quarterback room maybe four million dollars, and they have guys

68
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 4: who have upside and if it works out like great,

69
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 4: they didn't con pick whichever guy they want to continue on.

70
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 4: If it doesn't work out, they can go right back

71
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 4: in the draft and do it all over again without

72
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 4: a significant financial commitment. So if the Steelers, there's look,

73
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 4: there's little to no risk involved. And for the Chicago Bears,

74
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 4: even though you didn't get what you want, you did right,

75
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 4: but you did right by a guy who had been

76
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 4: a great player for you in the locker room.

77
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, A couple of things come to mind with this

78
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: trade right now. Number One, the reports say that Justin

79
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 2: Fields is not expected to compete with Wilson for the

80
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 2: starting job. That I don't on this stand. I guess

81
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: they wanted to sit there and learn from Russell Wilson.

82
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 2: I mean, you would think to be when initially when

83
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 2: I heard the trade. I said, Wow, now Russell Wilson's

84
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: got some competition to go for that style job. I

85
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 2: guess now it's his. He's got the stunning joke, which

86
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense to me. I think competition breeds

87
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 2: success maybe on way off base on.

88
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 3: That look, man, I think there's a natural packing order.

89
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: And I think if you are the Pittsburgh Stils, regardless

90
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 4: of what happens to a player before he gets to

91
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 4: your place, like you want to have a progression plan

92
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 4: for how you're going to deal with Justin Fields. I

93
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 4: can't think of a better situation, just in general, where

94
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 4: you have a young player because Justin Fields is relatively young,

95
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: who has an opportunity to learn behind a none time

96
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 4: pro bowler, one time Super Bowl champion. And despite what

97
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 4: everyone says about Russell Wilson and how bad of a

98
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 4: player and how washed up he is, Russell Wilson's numbers

99
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 4: were better than anything that the Pittsburgh still has had

100
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 4: at the quarterback position last year. If you go back

101
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 4: and you think about finding someone who had twenty six

102
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 4: touchdowns only eight interceptions, it's the ability to understand perception

103
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 4: and reality. The reality is Russell Wilson didn't play like

104
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 4: a superstar in Denver, but last year he was far

105
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 4: from a terrible player. This gives Justin Field an opportunity

106
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 4: to learn from a veteran who has played a lot

107
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 4: of football, who's played at a high level, how to

108
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 4: play the game. Look, I don't think there's anything wrong

109
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 4: we're putting Justin Fields in that situation, particularly when you

110
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 4: understand that last year, over sixty five quarterbacks played started

111
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 4: games in the National Football League. That means that typically

112
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 4: for most teams, your backup quarterback is going to play.

113
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 4: As some point, Justin Fields is probably going to play

114
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 4: for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and what you've gotten is a

115
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 4: former first round pick to kind of step into the

116
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 4: QB two row.

117
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 2: Right now, if you look at the Pittsburgh Steelers going

118
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 2: into the draft and some maybe free agency as well

119
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 2: as some of the needs that they wanted and they

120
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 2: needed a quarterback, needs some help on the offensive line,

121
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: a cornerback, and maybe a defensive tackle. So they got

122
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 2: two quarterbacks right now, Wilson Fields. They got a line background,

123
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 2: Patrick Queen in the free agency, and they got that

124
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 2: cornerback and Dante Jackson. So I think all of a sudden,

125
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: the Steelers look pretty good going into the draft.

126
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 4: Agreed, Repeat what you said. I heard you say something

127
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 4: about going to the draft. Just repeat it.

128
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 2: No, I think that the Stealers basically needed a quarterback,

129
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: offensive line help, a cornerback, and a defensive tackle, and

130
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 2: a free agency. That got their cornerback of Dante Jackson,

131
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 2: they got a linebacker on Patrick Queen, and they got

132
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 2: their two quarterbacks in Wilson and Fields.

133
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

134
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 4: No, I mean they've done a good job in the

135
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 4: offseason of being able to field voice and now in

136
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: the draft they have the opportunity to go in and

137
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 4: take the best player available. They don't have the pressure of,

138
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 4: oh my gosh, we have a need, we need to

139
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 4: go and get this done. They can sit on the

140
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 4: board and just kind of wait, this is a solid

141
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 4: situation about Omar Kahn to build up the roster and

142
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 4: make sure that you have all these things. Feel so,

143
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 4: if we had to play a game today, the Pittsburgh

144
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 4: still is good. Line up and snap the football and

145
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 4: feel good about the team they have. But now with

146
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 4: the draft coming up, they can look at the young players.

147
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 4: They can give them the most bang for the book,

148
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 4: which is exactly what you want to do.

149
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: You know, I think right now the pressure is solely

150
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: on the Chicago Bears because you know they're gonna pick

151
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 2: Caleb usc Is the first pick. They got the first

152
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 2: pick of the draft, and that was the pressure. Roll

153
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: along and look, you have the first pick in the

154
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 2: NFL draft. Obviously you're probably going to pick a quarterback,

155
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: even if there's not a tremendous need for a quarterback.

156
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 2: So Justin Fields is gone, Caylen Williams is gonna come

157
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: in there as the first pick, and should he not

158
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: do well, should he falter? Boy, are they going to

159
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: get some heat. They had some big time heats sort

160
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 2: of pressure, and who knows what he's going to do

161
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 2: in the pros. And you see this many times. I mean,

162
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 2: you want to get a guy with a lot of

163
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 2: experience under his belt coming out of college to play

164
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: the game of football. So it happened on the forty

165
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 2: nine ers when they drafted a quarterback. Couldn't get it done.

166
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: I mean, so obviously there is a lot of pressure

167
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 2: right now on the Chicago Bears to get a successful

168
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: I guess a successful stint out of their quarterback pick

169
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 2: in the draft.

170
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 4: Well, but it was gonna be pressure on him anyway,

171
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 4: because we live in a business where no matter what

172
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 4: the Chicago Bears did, we're gonna pick them apart.

173
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: If they move on from Justin.

174
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 4: Fialdz bring Kayla Williams Williams struggles, we're gonna say they

175
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 4: should have kept Justin Fields and played him or whatever.

176
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 4: If they kept Justin Fields and Kayler Williams, we would

177
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 4: say that's dumb. They could get more from them. And

178
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 4: so the Bears made a decision. They're going with Kayler Williams,

179
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 4: and Kayler Williams has.

180
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 3: To play well.

181
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 4: History suggests it's harder to find a quarterback in the draft.

182
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 4: It's harder to find a top ten quarterback that can

183
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:21,559
Speaker 4: do it at a high level.

184
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:22,559
Speaker 3: We'll see.

185
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 4: We'll see if the Bear is able to do something

186
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 4: that their franchise has not been able to do and

187
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 4: forever find a franchise quarterback that can lift his team

188
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 4: to greater heights.

189
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 3: We's see how it works for them.

190
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 2: Let's go back to the Pittsburgh Steels for a secon.

191
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett was the first pick out of the University

192
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: of Pittsburgh as that quarterback. Obviously, he wanted out of

193
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh as soon as he found out the Steelers sign

194
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson. I get that, but still, in all, if

195
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: you're a competitive you can say, we bring him on,

196
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: bring him in here, let me see what I could

197
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 2: do against him. But I guess he said, nope, I

198
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: don't want it, and the Eagles get the Kenny Pickett

199
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 2: by sending the Steelers a third round compensatory pick in

200
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 2: this year's draft, which would be like the ninety eighth

201
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 2: pick overall. But the funny thing is the story came

202
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,680
Speaker 2: out just the other day that the Steelers weren't pleased

203
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 2: with Kenny Pickett's behavior last year when he refused to

204
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: dress as the emergency third quarterback in a game against Seattle,

205
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 2: which was in week seventeen. You know, we get that now.

206
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 2: I haven't heard that early. Have you heard about that

207
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 2: story before that it refused to dress.

208
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 4: Well, I mean I heard like rumblings that they just

209
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 4: weren't happy with how he handled this situation with Mason Rudolph.

210
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,839
Speaker 4: He wasn't like there's a bit of entitlement to you know,

211
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 4: Kenny Pickett in his game and he felt like he

212
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 4: should have been the starting quarterback in those things and

213
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 4: for young quarterback who hadn't played great, it's a little

214
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 4: shocking that he would have those kinds of demands or whatever.

215
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 4: I think for the Pittsburgh still is regardless of what

216
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 4: transpired with Kenny Pickett at the end of the season

217
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 4: and those things. I think this comes down to who

218
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 4: would you rather have Justin Fiels or Kenny Pickett. From

219
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 4: a talent standpoint, the Pittsburgh Stellers felt like Justin Field

220
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 4: offers them more than Katy Pickett. That's why they went

221
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 4: that route. So regards of what they sent Kenny Pickett

222
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 4: to the Eagles for, I think it was more of

223
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 4: an opportunity to upgrade the backup because you don't trade

224
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 4: Kenny Pickett without having the Justin Fields deal almost done.

225
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 4: And so I don't believe that it was a coincidence.

226
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 4: Did they trade Kenny Pickett one day the next day

227
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 4: Justin Fields comes in. I think this is a matter

228
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 4: of them comparing the two players Justin Fields versus Kenny Pickett,

229
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 4: and opting to go with Justin Fields.

230
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go back to the Eagles for a second. Now,

231
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 2: look at the three quarterbacks on the Philadelphia Eagles and

232
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 2: look at the salary structure, which is unbelievable. How Howie Roseman,

233
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 2: the general manager, put this together. Got Jalen Hurts to

234
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 2: thirteen point five mil, all right, Kenny Pickets to get

235
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: at one point nine mil, and McKees did, he's a

236
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 2: third guy, the backup guy. Nine hundred and sixty one

237
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 2: thousand dollars. That's for three quarterbacks. Okay. Compare that to

238
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 2: Dallas where Dak Prescott is getting almost sixty million, I

239
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 2: think fifty nine point four million of the Cowboys cap

240
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones in New York with a giant sience forty

241
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 2: seven point one million. Such a pretty decent deal that

242
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 2: Howie Roseman got going on in Philadelphia with the Eagles

243
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 2: for three quarterbacks.

244
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you go back and you look at the

245
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 4: Eagles history, the Eagles have said time and time again

246
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 4: that they would like to be a quarterback factory, a

247
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 4: team that constant consistently develops quarterbacks. They're able to have them,

248
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 4: and they can either keep them for their own doing

249
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 4: as backups behind an established starter, or they can eventually

250
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 4: auction those guys off. When you go and you take

251
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 4: a first round pick in Kenny Pikett and you put

252
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 4: them behind Jalen Hurts. You want to upgrade the talent

253
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 4: in the room. You also want to take an opportunity

254
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,479
Speaker 4: to develop Kenny Pickett and see if you can maximize

255
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 4: who he is and what he's about. We'll see how

256
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 4: it plays out for all of these guys. But look,

257
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 4: I can't argue. I can't be mad at the Philadelphia

258
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 4: Eagles for taking a chance on Picket. But I also

259
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 4: can't be mad at the Pittsburgh Steelers for moving.

260
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 3: On from him when they had the opportunity to get

261
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 3: justin Phils. Yeah.

262
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 2: I had no idea that Kenny Pickett is older than

263
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts. But now you got to help me out here.

264
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 2: What to back this kid? Tana McKee. Have you heard

265
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: of this kid? I don't even know who he is.

266
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Tanner McKee play to Stanford. He's actually an

267
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 4: LA guy from the like the Inland Empire, played that

268
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 4: can run a centennial high school, went to Stanford, played

269
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 4: a little bit, served on a mission, but the only

270
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 4: played like maybe his final season before an end and

271
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 4: draft and intriguing prospect. The one thing that's interesting about

272
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 4: the Eagles, all of their quarterbacks are drastically different from

273
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 4: a stylistic standpoint.

274
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 3: Whereas the Pittsburgh Steelers.

275
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 4: Have decided that they want one type of quarterback in

276
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 4: the quarterback room so they don't have to change their offense.

277
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 4: The Eagles don't do that. It's just interesting to see

278
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 4: that because some normally you always talk about wanting to

279
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 4: have the same playbook. The Eagles have to change and

280
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 4: tweak their playbook if something is to happen to Jalen

281
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 4: Hurts when they go to the number two and number

282
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 4: three quarterback.

283
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like the Eagles right now with the

284
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 2: signing of Saekwon Barkley, they want to go back to

285
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 2: that power run offense, which I think about a year

286
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 2: ago and about mid season they went from I guess

287
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 2: a passing sort of offense to like really power running

288
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: and it really helped them down the stretch. Not this season,

289
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: but two seasons ago.

290
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, two seasons ago.

291
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 4: What they did is they run an offense that was

292
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 4: really built for Jalen Hurts. They ran the football, they

293
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 4: utilized the quarterback run game. It upgraded their typical run

294
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 4: game with the running backs. It made very difficult for

295
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 4: the defense. Last year they were a little more traditional,

296
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 4: try to be a little more like quarterback driven. When

297
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 4: it came to the passing game, that didn't necessarily work

298
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 4: out for them. I think it's solid to go back

299
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 4: to what Jalen Hurst did well, which is run the

300
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 4: football and utilizing Jalen Hurts making sure you utilize them

301
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,439
Speaker 4: as a runner as well as a playmaker in the backfield.

302
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 2: Okay, I got some really good news for you, Bucket Brooks.

303
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 2: You know I'm always here to try to make you happy,

304
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 2: and I got some good news for it because you know,

305
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 2: you look, you work for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and you

306
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 2: know you do a lot of work for them. But

307
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 2: certainly they had some problems not even on the field,

308
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: but off the field in the front overs. For Meet Patel,

309
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: the former Jacksonville Jaguars employee. He stole twenty two million

310
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 2: dollars from the team, which is unbelievable. I mean, today

311
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,080
Speaker 2: want to make a movie about this guy. How you

312
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 2: can steal twenty two million dollars from an NFL team

313
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: is beyond me. But he was sentenced in the US

314
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 2: district court this past week for six and a half

315
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 2: years in prison. That got him He's gone. Have you

316
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 2: ever met this guy? If you don't want to talk

317
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 2: about I get it. But have you ever seen this

318
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 2: guy in the front office of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

319
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 3: I have not ever met him.

320
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: So when you heard the story, he was like, you

321
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 2: were shocked, like everybody else, I'm sure.

322
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I mean, obviously he comes out and you know,

323
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 4: people to talk various stories about him and what he

324
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 4: took from the team. Obviously the amount of money is significant,

325
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 4: Dan Belzman. But yeah, when the case came to light,

326
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 4: I think it might have been a bit of a

327
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 4: shock to anybody and everybody around the building.

328
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 2: Amazing. Now he's a former employ now in the finance

329
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 2: department for the Jaguars. He pleaded guilty in December of

330
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: twenty three of charges why a fraud illegal monetary transactions

331
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 2: he stole from the Jaguars over a four year period

332
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 2: by creating fraudulent charges on the club's virtual credit card

333
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 2: and then covering his tracks by sending falsified files to

334
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 2: the team's accounty department. Do you have a credit card

335
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 2: from the Jaguars, Bucky Brooks.

336
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 4: I do not, because I'm an independent contract I'm a

337
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,479
Speaker 4: four time employee.

338
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 2: Okay, And Bettel said that his fraud was fueled by

339
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 2: his gambling addiction, and that he chased losses until those

340
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 2: losses snowballed beyond his control. Look, I would say this,

341
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: everyone who gambles is addicted. Maybe I'm crazy for saying that,

342
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 2: because it's like everybody who smokes. If you smoke, you're addicted.

343
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if you put a cigarette in

344
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 2: your mouth, you're addicted. You're addicted to smoking. If you gamble,

345
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 2: you're addicted. And look, I don't see people who basically

346
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 2: get on their phone and start making bets every single day,

347
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 2: even if they're little bets. And I don't do it,

348
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 2: but I've seen people who do, and friends of mine

349
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 2: do it. You're addicted.

350
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 5: You know.

351
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 2: It's not a bad word, but you are. And it's

352
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: very difficult to stop because I think you get started,

353
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: you enjoy it, or maybe you get caught up in it,

354
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 2: or maybe you're trying to get even if you're losing money.

355
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 2: But you are addicted. And this guy was addicted, so

356
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 2: they got him. He's out, he's in jail right now,

357
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: and good for you. I'm happy for that, all right.

358
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 2: I'm sure you're relieved to hear that. We move on.

Speaker 2: Bigger maybe better for you. That's right around the corner.

395
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy for Emaware live from the

396
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 2: tire Rack dot Com studios, and you know Bucky. The

397
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 2: biggest news I guess a free agency this week involved

398
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 2: a non free agent. I'll talk about Aaron Donald. Aaron

399
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 2: Donald retired at the age of thirty two, and he

400
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 2: and Barry Sanders are the only players in NFL history

401
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 2: to play ten years and get selected to the Pro

402
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 2: Bowl in each season. That's an amazing stat But at

403
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 2: thirty two, I thought he still had some more gas

404
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 2: in the tank. Were you surprised with the retirement for

405
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 2: Aaron Donald.

406
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,479
Speaker 4: No, not really surprised, because he hinted at retiring last year.

407
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 4: He's done it the last couple of years. We even

408
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 4: thought that maybe after the Super Bowl in which they

409
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 4: knocked off to Cincinnati Bengals, that that would be it.

410
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 4: So for him to get a four decade, for him

411
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 4: to be a perennial Pro Bowl or a guy that

412
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 4: made it each and every season. Sometimes you want to

413
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 4: go out on top. You want to go out before

414
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 4: people see the decline.

415
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 3: In your game. He'll go down as a legend.

416
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 4: He'll go down probably as a first ballot Hall of Famer,

417
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 4: one of the best defensive players that we've ever done.

418
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 4: And more importantly, he'll get out of the game while

419
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 4: they're still healthy. Given the money that he has made,

420
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 4: and given the money that these players make, we may

421
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 4: not see those guys that play fifteen sixteen years. You

422
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 4: will see guys probably kind of get what they can

423
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 4: out of the game, win as much as they can win,

424
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 4: try and build up their individual resumes. To be Hall

425
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 4: of Famers and get out. Aaron Donald elected to do that,

426
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 4: and he will get everything that he wants out of it,

427
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 4: because he certainly will be a gold Jackie guy when

428
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 4: it's all sat and downe.

429
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 2: No doubt about five years from today he'll be in

430
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame. There's no doubt about that. Yeah.

431
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 2: Another story that came to light on Friday, and this

432
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 2: is the Kirk Cousins thing. The domino theory kind of

433
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 2: just started. The domino start at the fall the Minnesota Vikings.

434
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 2: They get the Houston Texans first round drift pick and

435
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 2: that was a tread on Friday. More that really could

436
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 2: be a move for the Vikings to the second round.

437
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 2: They get quarterback to replace Kirk Cousins. The question I

438
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 2: have that Kirk Cousins basically leaving Minnesota creates a tremendous

439
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 2: void over there. And the coaching staff of the Vikings

440
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 2: was saying that, in fact, the Atlanta Falcons were kind

441
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: of like doing some illegal things prior to that trade,

442
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 2: prior to Cousins leaving. Why wouldn't that Hell would they

443
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 2: let Kirk Cousins go? What do they have right now

444
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 2: at the quarterback position?

445
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 4: Well, They didn't want to be heal hosted by Kirk Cousins.

446
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 4: You think about the amount of money that they paid

447
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins. They haven't won any playoff games, they haven't

448
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 4: done anything of significance with Kirk Cousins at the quarterback spot,

449
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 4: and they didn't want to be hel hostage by Kirk Cousins.

450
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 4: And look, man, his half tea contract demands. You saw

451
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 4: the contract that he got from the Atlanta Falcons. The

452
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 4: first ninety million dollars of that contract is guaranteed. They

453
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 4: didn't want to pay that much money for a quarterback

454
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 4: coming off in Achilles injury, particularly one that hasn't helped

455
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 4: them get past a certain point. Yeah, he is thirty

456
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 4: six and he is coming off an Achilles injury, and

457
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 4: you kind of want to see what it is. But

458
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 4: they haven't won the playoffs with him, And so for

459
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 4: the Minnesota Vikings, they're rather hit the reset button see

460
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 4: if they can find a younger, cheaper option and rebuild

461
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 4: their team with a better overall team than they can

462
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 4: put around the quarterback.

463
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 2: Okay, so now they got Sam Donald, which I don't

464
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,879
Speaker 2: think he's going to be a future There'll probably be

465
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 2: some sort of a bridge quarterback. They signed to a

466
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 2: one year, ten million dollar contract and we'll see what

467
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,679
Speaker 2: happens right now. But honestly, I just think if the

468
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 2: Vikings had problems winning playoff games in the past, I

469
00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 2: think they may have problems even getting into the playoffs

470
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 2: right now without Kirk Cousins.

471
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 3: I mean, that's true.

472
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 4: They may have a problem doing it, but they also

473
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 4: can't continue to pay Kirk Cousins forever, particularly the kind

474
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 4: of money that Kirk Cousins has been able to get.

475
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins has been on a guarantee contracts late the

476
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 4: last eight years, and for the Minnesota Vikings, when you're

477
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 4: paying the kind of money that they're paying Kirk Cousins

478
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 4: as a team, you want to see better results.

479
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:58,119
Speaker 3: But they haven't did it.

480
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 4: He's been great in the regular season, but in the

481
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 4: post season everyone knows about his primetime record. In those

482
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 4: things when you need the game to be about the

483
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 4: quarterback and the quarterback playing well, Kirk Cousins hasn't delivered.

484
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 4: The Minnesota Vikings had a price in mind, and once

485
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 4: it the bidding surpass that price, I think they were like, hey,

486
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 4: you know what, We'll move on. We're trying to find

487
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 4: another quarterback first to bridge and then we'll find a

488
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 4: young quarterback that we can build around.

489
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 2: And I think he's perfect for Atlanta because that office

490
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 2: does not have a Justin Jefferson as far as receiver,

491
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 2: and they run the football. They run a hob John Robinson,

492
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 2: so I think that he's not a mobile quarterback anyway.

493
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 2: And we'll see what happens coming up that injury. I

494
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 2: think he's a perfect fit for Atlanta.

495
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 3: I mean he does. He potentially could work in Atlanta.

496
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,200
Speaker 4: Arthur Blank one of the franchise quarterback in the mode

497
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 4: of Matt Ryan, so he gets that and they'll try

498
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 4: and beef up all the things around Kirk Cousins to

499
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 4: have success. To have Drake Lennon, they have cow Pitts,

500
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 4: who discounting community loved when he was coming out, but

501
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 4: he's yet to deliver on the promise that many saw.

502
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 4: They have b John Robinson in the backfield for a

503
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 4: They signed Darnelle Moody to come over. This team should

504
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 4: be well positioned to be very very competitive in the NFC,

505
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 4: but a lot would depend on how well Ker Cousins

506
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 4: plays and how he owns up coming off that Achilles injury.

507
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 2: Right, No, I did mention coming into the second bigger

508
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 2: maybe better about the college football players now they're moving now,

509
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 2: maybe even closer to it, and expected fourteen team playoff

510
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 2: that would begin in twenty twenty six. So here's the deal.

511
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,479
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm saying to myself, Wait a minute, now,

512
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 2: there's going to be fourteen teams coming in twenty twenty six.

513
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 2: They got to big ten the SEC, these teams, these

514
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 2: schools right now twenty one million dollars per school each

515
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 2: of those schools, and those conferences will get. That's up

516
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 2: from what they were getting five point five mili right now.

517
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 2: How in the heck can you ever have an even

518
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: playing field with college football teams when those two conferences

519
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 2: each school's getting twenty one mil. I don't get it,

520
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 2: And do me a favor, please, if anybody from the

521
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 2: SEC is listening, could we please not have these schools

522
00:23:56,080 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 2: playing like Western Kentucky and Lafayette, Monroe, Louisiana and New

523
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 2: Mexico State. If you're gonna have the big money out there,

524
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 2: stop playing those also runs. I get crazy when I

525
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 2: see Alabama playing like Louisiana Monroe. Stop stopping already. I

526
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 2: can't handle that. I can't well, I.

527
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 4: Mean, it's gonna be tougher to get them to play

528
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 4: the bigger schools because that's going to have a significant

529
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 4: impact on whether you make the playoff. And so some

530
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 4: of the marquee games that we would love to see

531
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 4: where we see cross sectional rivalries, teams from other conferences

532
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 4: playing each other, seeing Oregon take on an Auburn like

533
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 4: we've done in the past, we may not see those

534
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 4: games because why would I want to put myself at

535
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 4: risk of not being able to make the tournament. And

536
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 4: while I hear you and how you don't want to

537
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 4: see those games, I also can't load up my schedule

538
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 4: with all heavyweights and not have some easier games for

539
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,919
Speaker 4: my team. It does my team at this service, It

540
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 4: reduces our opportunity to go into the bid.

541
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 3: So you can't have your cake and eat it too.

542
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 4: If you want to have this big, expansive playoff, then

543
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 4: you're gonna have to live with some of the things

544
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 4: that teams are gonna do to ensure that they're teams

545
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 4: have the best chance of getting into the tournament.

546
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 2: And more than that, I think a lot of times

547
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 2: TV sets up those games, but more for than not.

548
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 2: The biggest games usually are on Labor Day weekend, and

549
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 2: then they kind of tape off a little bit because

550
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 2: TV puts those matches together.

551
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 3: I mean TV does.

552
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 4: He'll put some of those matches together with the Kickoff

553
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 4: Classic and those things.

554
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 3: What you like to.

555
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 4: Point out is, I think it's always week now that

556
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 4: the SEC schedule where everyone takes a collective break. There's

557
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 4: a baked end. I can't even say bye week, but

558
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 4: basically it's a bye week where you can play your

559
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 4: non conference games and everyone tends to take on a

560
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,479
Speaker 4: lesser opponent. We've seen Citadel play Alabama during those times.

561
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 4: Some of the schools that you alluded to play some

562
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 4: SEC foes at that time, and what it does it

563
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 4: gears them up before they played the rivalry game at

564
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 4: the end of the year. It's something that a lot

565
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 4: of people don't like it, but you certainly understand it

566
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 4: because if you're the head coach and you're trying to

567
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 4: put the best product on the field to give yourself

568
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 4: an opportunity to get into the tournament. Yeah, you're not

569
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,959
Speaker 4: gonna take on all heavyweights because conference itself is loaded

570
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 4: with enough heavyweights that you should be fine.

571
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 2: You're exactly right, all right, He's Bucket Brooks. I'm Andy Furman,

572
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 2: and this is Fox Football. That football really football Sunday today.

573
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 2: But it's always about football on Selection Sunday and Saint

574
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 2: Patrick's State. But could they be on the move that's next,

575
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 2: But of course we're here Fox Live for the tiraq

576
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 2: dot com studios. But first, Kevin Wyatt with all your sports.

577
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 8: Selection Sunday is upon us for less than twelve hours

578
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 8: from the reveal of the entire sixty eight team field

579
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 8: in the NCAA Tournament. And one team that's really going

580
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 8: to be keeping an eye on things, top ranked Houston Man.

581
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 8: They had a bad showing against Iowa State in the

582
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 8: Big twelve championship game. They lost sixty nine to forty

583
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,719
Speaker 8: one and shot just twenty seven percent from the field.

584
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,920
Speaker 8: So it'll be interesting to see one where where the

585
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 8: Kooks fall. They were projected to possibly be the number

586
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 8: one overall seed. Now the question is will they even

587
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 8: be a one seed at all or even number two?

588
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 8: Number seven Iowa State with the win very well, could

589
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 8: I get the themselves into that number one seed conversation?

590
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 8: So a lot to keep an eye on their number

591
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 8: two Yukon took care of business against number ten Marquette

592
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 8: seventy three fifty seven. So the Huskies, anticipating being the

593
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 8: number one overall seed in the tournament NC State, they

594
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 8: got five wins in five days to win the ACC Championship.

595
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 8: They beat their in state rival, number four North Carolina

596
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 8: eighty four to seventy six. The PAC twelve, the final

597
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 8: edition of that tournament, saw Oregon be Colorado seventy five

598
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 8: to sixty eight. In that championship game Mountain West, it

599
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 8: was New Mexico over San Diego State sixty eight sixty one. Akron,

600
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 8: they snapped a victory from the jaws of defeat. They

601
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 8: made two free throws the five seconds to go to

602
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 8: win the game, and that's because Kent State had taken

603
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 8: the lead and then immediately committed.

604
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:48,680
Speaker 2: A foul in the backcourt.

605
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 8: So that gave Akron a chance to just take the

606
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 8: game at the free throw line, and they took care

607
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,159
Speaker 8: of business there. It was a sixty two to sixty

608
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 8: one final score. Grambling State in as the SWACK champions

609
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 8: that's the first time they've ever made the NA Tournament.

610
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 8: They beat Texas Southern seventy five to sixty six Long

611
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 8: Beach State. What a story they are out of the

612
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 8: Big West as they beat UC Davis seventy four to

613
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 8: seventy to win the Big West Championship and punch their

614
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 8: ticket to the Big Dance. That's because they fired their

615
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:18,199
Speaker 8: coach about a week ago and they said they'd let

616
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 8: him stay on, Dan Munson to stay on who coached

617
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,879
Speaker 8: the rest of the season and the postseason, but they

618
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 8: said he would not return. Well, his tenure is gonna

619
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 8: go on at least one more game because of that win,

620
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 8: as they will get themselves into the tournament and in

621
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 8: the professional ranks. Golden State beats the Lakers twenty one.

622
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 8: Anthony Davis got himself hitting the eye and it really

623
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 8: looked bad there for a while and he could not

624
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 8: come back in. And what about the last two minutes

625
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 8: of that game. I mean, it was a great pace, great,

626
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 8: great back and forth game up until the last two minutes.

627
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 8: Win it just came to a halt, lots of reviews, challenges,

628
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 8: and the shot clock wouldn't even work and it just

629
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 8: took a long time to finish that game. But again

630
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 8: the Warriors do hold on to win it. But there's

631
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 8: going to be some discussion around the league as to

632
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 8: the replay policy going forward. The Oklahoma City Thunder beat

633
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 8: the Grizzlies one eighteen one twelve, Minnesota over Utah one

634
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 8: nineteen to one hundred. The big news in the NFL

635
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,239
Speaker 8: on Saturday it was the Bears trading Justin Fields too.

636
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 8: The Steelers are going to get a conditional sixth round

637
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 8: pick in twenty twenty five in return and the Players Championship.

638
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 8: They call it golf's fifth Major. Xanders Chowflay in the lead.

639
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 8: He is one stroke ahead of Wyndham Clark.

640
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 2: Back to you, guys, Kevin, Wait a minute, keV, did

641
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 2: I hear correctly? You said that Grambling is going to

642
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 2: the NCAA tournament. Yes, first time you say that. I

643
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 2: can't believe because I remember way back in the day

644
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: when Willis Reid played for Grambling. I guess they didn't

645
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 2: go anywhere, they didn't do anything with Willis played. So

646
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 2: that's good, good news for Grambling. Good to hear that.

647
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 2: All right, we move on, see you in an hour.

648
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 2: All right, home isn't so sweet. We'll explain that in

649
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 2: just a minute. And Bucky Brooks is here on Indy

650
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 2: Ferman and by the way. The Fox Sports Radio Bracket Challenge.

654
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 2: is sponsored by Graduate Hotels, but college fans stay and

655
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 2: track their supply. Okay, we got asked Bucky in about

656
00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 2: six seven minutes for now, and we'll say home isn't

657
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 2: so sweet because maybe there could be a dynasty on

658
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 2: the move and I can't stand to hear these stories.

659
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 2: It's kind of like putting a pressure on the fans,

660
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 2: putting pressure on the community. The president of the Kansas

661
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 2: City Chiefs, Mark Donovan, he said he didn't rule out.

662
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 2: During an interview on local television, he said that the

663
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 2: voters have to raise a regional sales tax and give

664
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 2: his business to proceeds. How do you like that? He

665
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 2: was on KSHB channel forty one in Kansas City. Donovan

666
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,440
Speaker 2: was asked about an April second vote to extend the

667
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 2: sales tax of three eighths of ascent through twenty sixty

668
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 2: four to fund a new Royals Kansas City Royals Ballpark

669
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 2: downtown and also improvements to Ourhead Stadium and Bucky Brooks

670
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 2: that tea right now. I don't think the public should

671
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 2: support private businesses, and why should the public support millionaires.

672
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 2: I don't get it. This freaking guy who owns a

673
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,479
Speaker 2: clock hunt the Kansas City Chiefs is a billionaire and

674
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 2: he's asking the public to vote on a tax for

675
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 2: money to fix his stadium. Makes me sick.

676
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 3: We look, man, I understand it.

677
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 4: But then like fans and cities don't really have an

678
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 4: alternative because if there are other cities that are willing

679
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 4: to take on the Kancity Chiefs or any other pro

680
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 4: franchise that's willing to move, you got to decide what's

681
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 4: more important to you, to stand in your principles and

682
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 4: say we're not going to add another penny. We're not

683
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 4: gonna have taxpayers paying for a private equity or argument

684
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 4: like nah, Like it's such an economic boost to have

685
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 4: this team, particularly a team coming off back to back

686
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 4: Super Bowl wins, to have them in tow, we're willing

687
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 4: to give up the pennies. Most cities will say no, no, no,

688
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 4: we'll do whatever it takes. But you're right, I mean,

689
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 4: NFL owners continue to win, They've always won. When it

690
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 4: comes to that, the rich get richer, they suppress the

691
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 4: payouts to people below them and continue to take a

692
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 4: big part of the product. So it's something that will

693
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 4: not change into the public demands.

694
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 3: That it changes.

695
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 2: Sports teams and sports owners hold cities hostage for their franchise.

696
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 2: And I get it, because there's only thirty plus teams,

697
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 2: and I think it's a great deal, and it separates cities.

698
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 2: It separates cities from being quote major league and minor

699
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 2: league cities. And I think it helps business obviously, downtown

700
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 2: hotels and restaurants and things like that. So certainly there's

701
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 2: an advantage to having a sports team. It attracts businesses,

702
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 2: it attracts maybe college graduates who want to go to

703
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,920
Speaker 2: a certain city to work because there's a sports team there.

704
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 2: But it bothers me that these owners are holding the

705
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 2: fans and voters hostage. As a matter of fact, according

706
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 2: to the TV station of the report, the Kansas City

707
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 2: Chiefs want to add a canopy to its upper deck.

708
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 2: They want fans and heating, They want a parking deck,

709
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 2: They want a bridge to connect the upper concourse, among

710
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 2: other upgrades. Look at this. The team says. The grades

711
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 2: would cost an estimated eight hundred million dollars all right.

712
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 2: The Hunt family who owns the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs,

713
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,200
Speaker 2: they said they want to contribute just three hundred million,

714
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 2: So the five hundred million shy, all right, and they

715
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: want the public to make up the difference. I'm sure

716
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 2: they will. I'm sure they're going to do it because

717
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 2: they don't want to see the team lose, and the

718
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 2: success this team has had over the last several years,

719
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 2: they're not going to let it go. But I just

720
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 2: don't think it's right to have teams holding cities and

721
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 2: communities and voter is hostage for their business. No other

722
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 2: business does that except the business of sports.

723
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 4: Yeah. Look, it's a tough time to be a fan.

724
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 4: But what is always interesting to me is fans tend

725
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 4: to sign with billionaires instead of the millionaire players. It

726
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 4: is baffling to me when they continue to get kind

727
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 4: of screwed over by ownership that they steadfastly believe in

728
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 4: owners when they're cutting salary, when they refuse to pay out,

729
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 4: when they're doing things. Fans have a tendency app and

730
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 4: applaud and say all this, you can't pay this much

731
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 4: money for this kid or whatever. But the billionaires continue

732
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 4: to find ways to take the last little coins in

733
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 4: their pocket and to take it for themselves until the

734
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 4: fans kind of send a strong message to ownership that

735
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 4: this game is about the fans and without the fans,

736
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 4: you're nothing.

737
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 3: It'll continue to go on like this.

738
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 2: I want to see the people on the voters in

739
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 2: Kansas City call Clark Hunt's bust. There's bluff. Call is bluff, really,

740
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 2: and look they're not moving, They're not going anywhere. They're

741
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,439
Speaker 2: not going to do that. Look the team owner, Clark Hunt, okay, right,

742
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 2: lately he's been dominated by stories about his cheapness. Really

743
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 2: and they had that voting with the Professional Football Association

744
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: and what he did. He plays thirty first in the

745
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 2: NFL Plays Association poll out of all the thirty two owners.

746
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 2: He got an F minus mark in the poll. The

747
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,439
Speaker 2: player said that the team's facilities, mainly the locker room

748
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 2: and the training room, are out of date, and, according

749
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 2: to the pole Count supposedly promised renovations after the twenty

750
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 2: twenty two season, but he failed to deliver outside of

751
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 2: aiding chairs by the player's locker. I mean, come on,

752
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,399
Speaker 2: stick your hand in your pocket, mister Hunt, and get

753
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 2: some stuff done. But I'd love to see the voters

754
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 2: turn this down and see what happens next. Not going

755
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 2: to do that. I mean they did that here in Cincinnati.

756
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 2: They did this several years ago when they went to

757
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:24,760
Speaker 2: the new stadium downtown. They got the stadium Paul Brown Stadium.

758
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: Now it's pay Court Stadium. But you know, they threatened

759
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 2: to move, they threatened to leave. And what the ownership

760
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 2: of the Bengals did, They were pretty smart. They had

761
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 2: it all planned out. They brought all the old players back,

762
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 2: the Chris collins Worth of the world, the Boomers, sciences,

763
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 2: and they had a big deal downtown and everybody got

764
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 2: around them and they were signing autographs or whatever, and

765
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 2: they had to vote, and certainly they voted, and they

766
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 2: got the new stadium. Now that's what they did, and

767
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 2: that the team is somewhat successful because at the time

768
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 2: that team was really down the dumps in the nineties.

769
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 2: Who was like the Lost century really for that team.

770
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 2: But now they got the new stadium, and I think

771
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 2: a lot of teams do that, and we'll see what

772
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 2: happens in Kansas City. Makes me sick. I love sports,

773
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 2: but I hate when those owners do that and they

774
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 2: know they can they know they can, Bucket, they can.

775
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 2: They're gonna get away with it. They always have and

776
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 2: they always will.

777
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:11,879
Speaker 3: Yeah.

778
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,839
Speaker 4: No, They'll do whatever the market bears. And so if

779
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 4: they can continue to squeeze it and make money and

780
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 4: be profitable off of it, they're going to continue.

781
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 3: To do so.

782
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly right. He's Bucket Brooks. I'm Andy Freman. We

792
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 2: for ask Bucky. Let's get it going, all right, Bucky Brooks,

793
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 2: what would be your career if you were not involved

794
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 2: in football?

795
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 5: Uh?

796
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 4: I mean, look, I think it would be teaching and

797
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 4: coach at the high school level. I coach at the

798
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:03,799
Speaker 4: high school level now, but I think I would be

799
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 4: a teacher.

800
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 2: Very good. Okay, And let's go back a little bit

801
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 2: to your schooling. What did you major in school on? What,

802
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 2: in fact was your best subject?

803
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 4: My degree is in communications speech communications at North Carolina.

804
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,959
Speaker 4: My best subject, I would say, going back to high

805
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 4: school and college was also always social studies, US history,

806
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 4: those things.

807
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,359
Speaker 2: I bet you were a good student. I bet you

808
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 2: were very diligent your homework.

809
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 4: I was.

810
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, okay, let's go back to the NFL.

811
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 2: NFL is traveling around different cities. Your favorite NFL city

812
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 2: and maybe favorite restaurant in that city.

813
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 4: Ooh hmm, that's tough. Let's see favorite NFL city. Okay,

814
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 4: So we just talked about Kansas City. I would say

815
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 4: Kansas City is one of my favorites to visit. Having

816
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 4: played there, I knew it well. I would say Gates

817
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 4: Barbecue in Kansas City not the most like upscale spot,

818
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 4: but in terms of the barbecue, if you want a

819
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 4: true kind of feel for Kansas City barbecue, I would

820
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 4: say Gates Barbecue represents that.

821
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:16,400
Speaker 2: There you go, okay, okay, way off based on this question,

822
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 2: and someone asked me this question the other day, so

823
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask it to you. Because you probably have

824
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 2: the answer. Why do baseball players spit? I don't see

825
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,760
Speaker 2: gymnast spit. I don't see track and field runners spit

826
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: football perhaps maybe I don't know what they got the

827
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 2: helmet on, I can't tell. But why do baseball players spit?

828
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,839
Speaker 3: I don't know. I think it's a part of the game.

829
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 4: I think it's a part of when you go back

830
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 4: and you think about the number of players way way

831
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 4: way back in the day they used to chew tobacco

832
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 4: or they have it look an excessive amount of gum

833
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 4: in their mouth. I think you can't help but to

834
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:56,799
Speaker 4: take all the juices or whatever you got to get

835
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 4: rid of a summary. And so spitting became a big

836
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 4: part of the culture in baseball.

837
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 2: I wonder if hockey players spit. You think hockey players spin?

838
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 4: I doubt it when they when they are spitting their

839
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 4: spitting teeth.

840
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 2: Out right right, Well, what about basketball? I haven't seen

841
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 2: them spit maybe on the bench, and I just but

842
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:14,800
Speaker 2: baseball players, I think tradition.

843
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 4: I think you're right, and it's outside like it's outside,

844
00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 4: because it's acceptable to spit on the ground outside. You

845
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 4: can't spit on the basketball court.

846
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 2: That wouldn't be cool, and I did some research on

847
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 2: it prior to the question. I looked at up and said,

848
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 2: a lot of players spit in years past because they're

849
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 2: spitting their glove to kind of loosen up their glove.

850
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 2: That's what they did. I don't know, but that's why

851
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 2: baseball players spit. Who knows, I don't know. They're not

852
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 2: a great habit to do, but they do it. Okay,

853
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 2: best athlete you ever played with and against in the

854
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,319
Speaker 2: pros and in college? Best athletes You can do more

855
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 2: than one if you want.

856
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 4: I would say in the pros the best athlete that

857
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,440
Speaker 4: I played with, it would be one or two. I

858
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 4: would say Dale Carter for the long term player for

859
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 4: the Kancity Chiefs played at the Pro Bowl level. I

860
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 4: would say Charles Woodson would also fall into that category

861
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 4: because he was so natural.

862
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 5: Uh.

863
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,319
Speaker 4: In college, I'm trying to figure out who is the

864
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,760
Speaker 4: best player that I played against.

865
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,120
Speaker 3: Uh, it's tougher. In college.

866
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 4: I would say Charlie Ward playing quarterback at Florida State.

867
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 4: Oh wow, that's probably the most intriguing athlete that I

868
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 4: remember seeing because he did Yeah, I played for the

869
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:22,319
Speaker 4: next for a long time.

870
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, should did all right, les, but not least your choice. Would'

871
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 2: rather play in an historic stadium like lambeau Field or

872
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 2: play in a modern dome facility.

873
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 4: Iran in a historic stadium, There's something about playing where

874
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 4: the Grace have played before that appeals to me.

875
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 2: Love to hear that. Anything you want to ask me,

876
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,399
Speaker 2: I've always asked you stuff? What could you pub?

877
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 3: Well?

878
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 2: Think about that when we come back, we move on.

879
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman. He's the best wide receiver in

Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks and Buck. I gotta tell you you did

896
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 2: some tremendous homework on this piece on Foxsports slash. Bucky

897
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:46,440
Speaker 2: Brooks got to google it Foxsports. Bucky Brooks on the

898
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 2: quarterback history of the draft class of twenty twenty four,

899
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 2: on what's going on, and I just want to touch

900
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 2: on it for a second. Number One, you say, Jaden Daniels,

901
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 2: the Kennad of LSU, is going to be the best

902
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 2: quarterback prospect in this draft. Tell me why and what

903
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 2: your study has told people?

904
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 4: No, I would say, like, if you do the study

905
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,040
Speaker 4: in the last look going on their back to nineteen

906
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 4: ninety eight, we look at quarterbacks electing in the top ten.

907
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,840
Speaker 4: There are a few things that kind of stood out.

908
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 4: And the things that stood out and they are two errors. Right,

909
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 4: there's nineteen ninety eight to twenty ten. That's the old CBA.

910
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 4: But we used to pay a bunch of big money for

911
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 4: top ten quarterbacks and then you have twenty eleven to

912
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 4: now which is a new era. Well back in the

913
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:30,919
Speaker 4: old era, experience really matter. Guys selected in the top ten,

914
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 4: they hit and became stars. Average about thirty eight collegiate stars.

915
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 4: So guys like Philip Rivers, Donovan McNab, Carson Palmer and others,

916
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:42,400
Speaker 4: those guys really pop paid Manning. They popped because they

917
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 4: played a significant amount of snaps as collegians. Twenty eleven

918
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 4: to now, we've seen more teams take on guys who

919
00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 4: are being inexperienced, and the inexperienced players have really had

920
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 4: a tough time playing well. Now, the stars like Cam

921
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 4: Newton and Calla Murray had fewer than twenty starts, and

922
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,399
Speaker 4: they were atypical.

923
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 3: The majority of.

924
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 4: The players that have really played really, really well have

925
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 4: had well over thirty starts and they've been successful. And

926
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 4: so when you look at this year's draft class, Jaden

927
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 4: Daniels has fifty five collegiate starts. Caleb Williams's next and

928
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 4: he has thirty three, but Drake May and JJ McCarthy

929
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,320
Speaker 4: respectively only have in the twenties, like twenty eight and

930
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 4: twenty six respectively. So when you go about it and

931
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,919
Speaker 4: you look at all the numbers, Jaydeen Daniels falls into

932
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 4: the metric where his game should pop, it should pop

933
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 4: in a major way because he's the most experience of

934
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 4: the top talented guys, and so I'm saying you should

935
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 4: cast you a lot with him because he has the

936
00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 4: best chance of being a star at the level.

937
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 2: So you're telling me there's a real good chance that

938
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels be to pick up the Chicago Bears for

939
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,400
Speaker 2: the number one pin over Caleb Williams.

940
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:53,839
Speaker 3: No, I'm not saying that.

941
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 4: I'm saying that of those guys because we've seen like

942
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 4: last year, Bryce Young was the first one, but CJ.

943
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,400
Speaker 4: Stroud was to to pick was the one that became

944
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 4: a star of the group right away. I'm saying that

945
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 4: if Kaylen Williams goes first, it doesn't mean that he's

946
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 4: going to be the star. He's just a guy that

947
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,520
Speaker 4: everyone views as a star based on this talent in

948
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 4: those things. I'm saying that if Jalen Daniels, Jane Daniels

949
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,399
Speaker 4: goes to wherever the commanders or whatever, given his experience,

950
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,719
Speaker 4: his experience and expertise, look, the odds are that he's

951
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 4: more likely to pop than some of the other guys

952
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 4: that are at the top of the board, in the

953
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 4: top ten.

954
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 2: It's funny because back in the day, when a guy

955
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:35,160
Speaker 2: drafted a quarterback, usually a quarterback was holding the clipboard

956
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 2: for a year or two learning the system, and he

957
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 2: kind of gradually became a starter and played the game. Look,

958
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 2: you mentioned Peyton Manning had forty five collegiate starts, Donovan

959
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 2: McMahon forty nine, Carson Palmer forty four, Philip Rivers fifty one.

960
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 2: So I guess it didn't mean much back then because

961
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:55,359
Speaker 2: they weren't coming right into the start anyway. And look,

962
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 2: when Peyton Manning started, he flubbed his first year or so,

963
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 2: didn't have a lot of success. Then he kind of

964
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 2: learned what it's all about, got a feel for it,

965
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 2: and then he went on for Super Bowl.

966
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would say this like the Carson Palmer

967
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 4: is a great example of the way that it worked

968
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 4: right because Carson Palmer came in and sat for an

969
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 4: entire year behind John Kidner and Cincinnati, but regardless of

970
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 4: red shirting, by the end of his third year, he

971
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,879
Speaker 4: was a Pro Bowl player. Same thing happened to Philip Rivers,

972
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 4: who sat for two years behind Drew Brees, but that

973
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 4: third season in the league.

974
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 3: He was a Pro Bowl player.

975
00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 4: So regardless of whether you sat or played, the experienced

976
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 4: players had.

977
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 3: Success by their third year.

978
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:41,440
Speaker 4: When you look at the inexperienced players that are now

979
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,800
Speaker 4: coming to our league, we're throwing them right onto the field.

980
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 4: We're expecting them to be these great players, and they

981
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,720
Speaker 4: simply haven't played enough football.

982
00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 3: And even though the.

983
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 4: Game has changed from the college game ninety eight, that

984
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 4: old school area that was still more like the pro

985
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,320
Speaker 4: game to now where it's completely different.

986
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 3: It's a little more or spread and shred RPOs.

987
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 4: And those things, the inexperienced players are moving up to

988
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 4: the pros and having a difficult time dealing with the

989
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 4: complexities of NFL defenses, which is why we're seeing so

990
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 4: many of the top guys bust.

991
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 3: I mean, just think about what we just saw yesterday.

992
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 4: Justin Fields traded of that vaunted quarterback class. Because remember

993
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 4: how we talked about that class was gonna be the

994
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 4: golden era of quarterback and you had Trevor Lawrence and

995
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 4: Trey Lance and Zach Wilson, Mac Jones and Justin Fields,

996
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 4: and all of those guys, with the exception of Trevor Lawrence,

997
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,920
Speaker 4: will be playing with a new team and so not

998
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 4: the original team this year. That tells you the difficulty

999
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 4: in finding those quarterbacks. But you can point out a

1000
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,360
Speaker 4: lot of those quarterbacks didn't have a lot of snaps

1001
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 4: when they entered the league.

1002
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 2: And that's not gonna change because of the situation right now.

1003
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 2: The immediate thing of help, you need help right now.

1004
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,839
Speaker 2: I Mikaleb Williams is gonna be drafted by the Bears.

1005
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 2: He's gonna believe, he's gonna start. I mean, that's one

1006
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,680
Speaker 2: of the reasons why Fields is gone. He's that quarterback

1007
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 2: and it's not going to change. I think maybe to

1008
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 2: an extent, it may be even better for the fans

1009
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 2: point of view, not for the team, but for the fans,

1010
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 2: because you follow these kids in college and you see

1011
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 2: how they've done, and the next year they're going right

1012
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 2: to the pros, which is great. It's a great transition

1013
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,520
Speaker 2: that and I think go to making a comparison maybe

1014
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 2: a long stretch year to a major league baseball You've

1015
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,240
Speaker 2: got a guy. Not many people, I don't think follow

1016
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 2: college baseball as much as they follow college football. But

1017
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:27,080
Speaker 2: if a guy does well in college, you may not

1018
00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 2: see him in the major leagues. In baseball for six, seven,

1019
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,359
Speaker 2: eight years down the road, it's a lot different. So

1020
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 2: you want to see what a guy does and the

1021
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 2: NBA has that guy does great in college drafted playing

1022
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 2: right now in the next year in the NBA. That's

1023
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 2: what makes NFL successful to some extent.

1024
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 4: To some extent, yeah, I mean there is something to that,

1025
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,840
Speaker 4: like the success rate or whatever. I mean, Like, just

1026
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 4: think about Haymiyakiz going down to the Miami Heat and

1027
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,840
Speaker 4: the success that he's had right at a time in

1028
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 4: the NBA when so many young guys are flaming out,

1029
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 4: the Miami Heat has been able to kind of hit

1030
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 4: on some of their picks because they take experienced guys,

1031
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:05,800
Speaker 4: guys who played for a long time in the college ranks,

1032
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:09,240
Speaker 4: and by playing the game a lot like they're better players,

1033
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 4: they're better prepared to get to the next level in

1034
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 4: terms of playing the game. I think it makes sense.

1035
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 4: I think more teams need to investigate that. But yeah,

1036
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 4: experience appears to matter, and varying levels of experience can

1037
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 4: tend to predict what kind of success you have at

1038
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 4: the next level. Going all the way back to the

1039
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,759
Speaker 4: day Bill Barseils used to have a rule where He

1040
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 4: would want guys that have been three and a half

1041
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,160
Speaker 4: your starter as guys who had locked at least thirty stars,

1042
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 4: guys who had won twenty three of those starts with

1043
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 4: a completion percentage. They graduated in those things because he

1044
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 4: believe experience mattered.

1045
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 3: And I think we're seeing that it does matter.

1046
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:49,839
Speaker 2: All right, that's great. I love that. It's a great story.

1047
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,479
Speaker 2: You get a Fox Sports google Fox Sports bucket Brooks,

1048
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,359
Speaker 2: you find that. But now let's move to the wide

1049
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,160
Speaker 2: receiver route. Because I said he's the best wide receiver

1050
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 2: in free agency. We're talking about the race for Calvin

1051
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 2: Ridley and it reached its shocking conclusion. Let's talk about

1052
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 2: Calvin Ridley for a second. Had a broken foot, had

1053
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 2: about with depression, It led for a leave of absence

1054
00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 2: to the Atlanta Falcons back at twenty twenty one, and

1055
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 2: of course in twenty twenty two, he was suspended for gambling.

1056
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,640
Speaker 2: No one cares. Who cares? He's the best wide receiver

1057
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,319
Speaker 2: in football. You know that played field Jacksonville team a

1058
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 2: year ago, seventy six receptions over one thousand yards with

1059
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 2: eight touchdowns. But he's gone right now and he's moved on. Okay,

1060
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,359
Speaker 2: and the race is he signed with the Titans. How

1061
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 2: surprised with the Titans? I mean, who's going to get

1062
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 2: in the football in Tennessee? That's the question.

1063
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:36,919
Speaker 4: Well, I mean they believe that Will Lewis is gonna

1064
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 4: be able to get him the football. Calvin Ridley shook

1065
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 4: off two years of RUSS to come and have a

1066
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:46,840
Speaker 4: thousand yard receiving with the Jaguars, had eight touchdowns and

1067
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 4: looked like. There's some people that in Jacksonville that were upset.

1068
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:53,320
Speaker 3: They thought that he would do more.

1069
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,840
Speaker 4: And so there was this debate I can't even say internally,

1070
00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 4: but amongst the fans about whether he's worth bring back,

1071
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 4: you know, because of the things that people were talking about.

1072
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 4: Does he understand how to run the route tree? Can

1073
00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,280
Speaker 4: he do some of these things? Is he a legitimate

1074
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:11,920
Speaker 4: number one? Well, the Tennessee Titans saw someone who is

1075
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,080
Speaker 4: a big time playmaker, a guy who could compliment what

1076
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:17,680
Speaker 4: they have on the other side and DeAndre Hawkins. They're

1077
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,720
Speaker 4: willing to pay him what I would call like top

1078
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:23,360
Speaker 4: elite wide receiver money because he came in at twenty

1079
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:27,440
Speaker 4: three million per and they're gonna roll. I shouldn't even

1080
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 4: say that because that's gonna be a bad punt, and

1081
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,880
Speaker 4: they're willing to gamble on the fact that he is

1082
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 4: going to give them some stability at the position. With

1083
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 4: Will Levice, what they're trying to do is you can

1084
00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:39,840
Speaker 4: see they're trying to surround their young quarterback with veteran

1085
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 4: pass catches because the reliability and dependability should help the

1086
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,000
Speaker 4: quarterback be able to trust that I can throw the

1087
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,240
Speaker 4: ball out to the perimeter and one of my guys

1088
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 4: is going to be there and they're gonna make the catch.

1089
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,000
Speaker 4: This is all about ran Carthon trying to make sure

1090
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 4: that his young quarterback, Will Levis is given every opportunity

1091
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,359
Speaker 4: to succeed. And right now, on paper, it really looks

1092
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,800
Speaker 4: good because they're really solid when it comes to the

1093
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,680
Speaker 4: wide receiver corps. They added some juice to the backfield

1094
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 4: with Tony Pollitt. I'm sure they'll continue to add to that.

1095
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 4: And then they beefed up the offensive line. So as

1096
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 4: Brian Callahan makes his debut as an NFL head coach

1097
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 4: with his dad Bill Callahan tutoring the offensive line, Yeah,

1098
00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 4: the Tennessee Titans look like they're well positioned to kind

1099
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,120
Speaker 4: of bounce back from a very disappointing campaign last year.

1100
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and with Derek Henry leaving going to the Baltimore Ravens,

1101
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,240
Speaker 2: we may see a different kind of offense there in Tennessee,

1102
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 2: more of a passing first offense rather than a run

1103
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:32,840
Speaker 2: first offense.

1104
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 3: I don't think you'll see that part of it.

1105
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,120
Speaker 4: I think what you want to do is you want

1106
00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:40,879
Speaker 4: to be balanced enough that you can do both.

1107
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:42,279
Speaker 3: You can run it, you can throw it.

1108
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 4: But with a young quarterback, you still want to lean

1109
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,440
Speaker 4: into the running game while he's kind of learning how

1110
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 4: to do it. But when you do pass, you want

1111
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 4: to have guys that are dependable and reliable. He now

1112
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 4: has that because he has two Pro Bowl caliber players

1113
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:55,240
Speaker 4: on the perimeter.

1114
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 2: Okay, he got four years for ninety two million dollars,

1115
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 2: including a fifty million guaranteed. That's what Gavin Ridley got.

1116
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 2: Tennessee beat out Jacksonville or Jacksonville. They beat out New England,

1117
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 2: two teams that really looked like they were the favorites

1118
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,320
Speaker 2: to get Calvin Ridley. But it's crazy because it looked

1119
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 2: like from the day one that he wasn't going anywhere. Really,

1120
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,440
Speaker 2: the point is, if he would have signed an extension

1121
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 2: with Jacksonville before four o'clock in the afternoon last Wednesday,

1122
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 2: and that starts the NFL's new league year. That would

1123
00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 2: become a second round pick. Otherwise it would have been

1124
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 2: a third round pick in the draft. And the trade

1125
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:33,040
Speaker 2: situation because the Jags agreed to send two picks, a

1126
00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 2: fifth rounder in twenty twenty three and a conditional pick

1127
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, which held up Ridley's free agency.

1128
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:41,319
Speaker 2: So it's kind of a bit of a mess there.

1129
00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 2: But right now, he called their bluff and he won,

1130
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 2: so big time money for Calvin Ridley. And look, you know,

1131
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 2: I get it he was gambling, But I just I

1132
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 2: see the talent kind of trumps everything in the world

1133
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:58,040
Speaker 2: of sports. You know, if it was a second tier

1134
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 2: player who was suspended for game to be a real

1135
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 2: good shot, that guy would never seen a light of

1136
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:05,320
Speaker 2: day in the NFL. Again, the fact that I believe

1137
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,280
Speaker 2: he's the best wide receiver in the National Football League.

1138
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:10,839
Speaker 2: He was suspended for gambling. All right, we'll bring him back.

1139
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,480
Speaker 2: You know, he's a great player. Let him play. The

1140
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:16,040
Speaker 2: fans want to see him. We need him in the league, agreed.

1141
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 4: No, it's a different time because when the league decided

1142
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,400
Speaker 4: to get in bed with the gambling entities.

1143
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 3: However you do it, fan dual.

1144
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:29,839
Speaker 4: DraftKings, the casinos, bet MGM, and those things. It kind

1145
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 4: of lifted some of the taboo around gambling. Though the

1146
00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,880
Speaker 4: league doesn't want his players and employees predicted in gambling,

1147
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 4: they have kind of opened the door by forming these

1148
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:44,399
Speaker 4: partnerships with gambling entities. So it's no longer looked at

1149
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 4: like it used to be looked at in the past.

1150
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 4: But let's be honest, let's think about it, like there

1151
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 4: be people that have been involved in gambling in the

1152
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 4: league who were great players. Alex Kris, Paul Hornig. I

1153
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 4: think they both served one year suspensions for their involvement

1154
00:53:59,080 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 4: in gambling.

1155
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,480
Speaker 2: But they worked the casinos. I guess they were gambling

1156
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:05,839
Speaker 2: while they worked there. But still, in all I think

1157
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:08,359
Speaker 2: there's a completely different situation. But I'll tell you why.

1158
00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:11,799
Speaker 2: I don't think they were gambling on games. There's a

1159
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:15,160
Speaker 2: different thing. We could play slot machines, play cards over there.

1160
00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 2: They were kind of like hosts, if you will, in casinos,

1161
00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,360
Speaker 2: and the fact that they were involved in a gambling

1162
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:22,960
Speaker 2: entity that's why they were suspended. I think it's a

1163
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 2: different animal maybe I'm wrong.

1164
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, it may be, but I think the

1165
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 4: lines are blurry now, and I think the league has

1166
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,360
Speaker 4: been very clear that they don't want their players doing it,

1167
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:35,480
Speaker 4: but they also have formed these partnerships, like just look

1168
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 4: around and look at where the money's coming from and

1169
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 4: how gambling is attached to all of these leagues. Now,

1170
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 4: I think what you're getting, you're getting players who the

1171
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 4: lines are blurred from fantasy football to real football, because

1172
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:50,120
Speaker 4: you got to remember, these kids grew up in the

1173
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:54,240
Speaker 4: fantasy football era where they played fantasy football with their people,

1174
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 4: and they've been able to do it on apps like

1175
00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 4: Yahoo and those things forever. I'm not saying that they

1176
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,960
Speaker 4: don't know the difference between real gambling in those things.

1177
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:05,719
Speaker 4: I'm saying they grew up at a time where you

1178
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 4: always talked about games you played and participated in games

1179
00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,880
Speaker 4: that did it. And Calvin Ridley and others who have

1180
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 4: been pinched and jammed up by those things, I think

1181
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 4: they would probably tell you, like, what's the big deal,

1182
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 4: even though the league would say it compromises the integrity

1183
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:22,919
Speaker 4: of the game.

1184
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:26,880
Speaker 2: Okay, so let's say player A in the National Football League,

1185
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 2: you can't gamble or bet within the premises of the

1186
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,879
Speaker 2: of the facility. Correct. In other words, I can't take

1187
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,840
Speaker 2: out my phone in the clubhouse and locker room and gamble,

1188
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:38,840
Speaker 2: but I could go home again on my phone and

1189
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,399
Speaker 2: bet on an NFL game if if I'm a player, right,

1190
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 2: you could do that.

1191
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 4: You can't bet. You can't bet on the NFL. You

1192
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,799
Speaker 4: could like the lines of blurry because like, you can't

1193
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,839
Speaker 4: bet on the NFL, but you can place wagers on

1194
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:55,240
Speaker 4: other things. And for players, the lines are you can't

1195
00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:57,879
Speaker 4: do it in and around NFL facilities, but you can

1196
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 4: do it at home if it's not there. There are

1197
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 4: a lot of different rules that players have to educate

1198
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 4: themselves on in terms of what they can and what

1199
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 4: they can't do.

1200
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 3: Like, for instance, and if if NFL.

1201
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:12,279
Speaker 4: Employees go to Vegas, they're not allowed to really be

1202
00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 4: in sportsbook. They're not allowed to go. Even if I

1203
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,880
Speaker 4: wanted to just go to the sportsbook to watch the game,

1204
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 4: I can't do that because of those things.

1205
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:22,919
Speaker 2: And so what would happen if you were caught there?

1206
00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:25,080
Speaker 2: Find those job?

1207
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 3: For me? No, as an employee, I would lose my job.

1208
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 4: So you can't you can't go up in there and

1209
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,840
Speaker 4: do those kinds of things like in season, out of

1210
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:34,839
Speaker 4: season or whatever, and they really don't like it when

1211
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,840
Speaker 4: their players are in the casino playing card games or

1212
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:42,240
Speaker 4: anything like that, because the look is not the optics

1213
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,359
Speaker 4: are not great when it comes to the NFL and

1214
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 4: having their players there. But how can you tell players

1215
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 4: not to go there and do those things when the

1216
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:51,960
Speaker 4: league is taking a bunch of money there. So when

1217
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 4: I talk about the lines being blurry, it's blurry because

1218
00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 4: the league for after for years kind of like frowning

1219
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 4: upon the practice of dealing with gambling. They've opened it

1220
00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 4: up because the money was so significant that now you

1221
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:09,040
Speaker 4: do have people that are confused as to why and

1222
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 4: what they can do and what they can't do.

1223
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 2: Okay, I got a question. I'm an NFL player. On

1224
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 2: a Saturday, we get on the plane, we go to

1225
00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 2: the visiting city, getting ready for Sunday's game. I'm in

1226
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 2: my hotel room. There's a college football game Saturday night.

1227
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,240
Speaker 2: I'll get on my phone. I'm betting on that game.

1228
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 2: Number one. How do they find out if I did that?

1229
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 2: Number two? Is it legal? And number three? Maybe I

1230
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 2: throw in an NFL game there as well. I'm in

1231
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 2: my hotel room by myself. Who's gonna know I'm on

1232
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 2: my phone. Can they find out NFL games?

1233
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:38,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, they can find out, Like that's easy, like the

1234
00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 4: casinos and all those things can track it, like IP

1235
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:43,720
Speaker 4: addresses and those things. Because when you register, you get

1236
00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 4: a register in your full name, and so anytime you

1237
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,920
Speaker 4: register and it's the NFL player like, it's easy to

1238
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:50,480
Speaker 4: ding and flag and pop up.

1239
00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't think it's one of those.

1240
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:53,880
Speaker 4: Things that you can sneak and get away, Like you

1241
00:57:53,880 --> 00:57:55,720
Speaker 4: may get away for a little bit, but at some

1242
00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 4: point they're gonna track you down. There's too much stuff

1243
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,720
Speaker 4: of leaving a digital footprint that will expose yourself to

1244
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:07,520
Speaker 4: being look to doing what you shouldn't be doing when

1245
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 4: it comes to gambling. So no, you can't deal with

1246
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:12,760
Speaker 4: NFL games. And it's still murky on some of the

1247
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 4: things that you can do, because I be honest with

1248
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:16,680
Speaker 4: you go through it and you take all the training.

1249
00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 4: They try and make it as clear as possible, but

1250
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 4: it's not one hundred percent clear incoherent in terms of.

1251
00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 3: What you can do.

1252
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 4: So I would say the best method and approach is

1253
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,560
Speaker 4: to not to engage in it at all because it's

1254
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 4: not any that you can participate in one thing whatever.

1255
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's certainly not worth it.

1256
00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:38,280
Speaker 4: And the suspensions are look, man, they're lengthy there, they're

1257
00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 4: very punitive.

1258
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:42,440
Speaker 2: You're exactly right. I just you know, it is crazy,

1259
00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:45,280
Speaker 2: very murky, as you say, it certainly is. But any doubt,

1260
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 2: just don't do it at all. That's the best advice

1261
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:49,560
Speaker 2: you can get. If you have any doubts, just don't

1262
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 2: do it. Bucky Brooks, Andy Freman get him on Twitter

00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:47,600
Speaker 2: get off the year. Now, let's talk about what's going

1282
00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:50,959
Speaker 2: on here with the college college athletics and the college administrators.

1283
00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 2: Obviously of long call for federal legislation to regulate nil name,

1284
00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:59,120
Speaker 2: image and likeness. They're going to get these deals legislated

1285
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 2: nation and wide, and so far they haven't had much success.

1286
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,240
Speaker 2: All Right, this past week there was a congressional hearing

1287
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:10,840
Speaker 2: went into the college athletic unionization efforts and I roundtable

1288
01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 2: all that. Nick Shaban was there. Nick Shaban made a speech.

1289
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:16,680
Speaker 2: He got up to talk. He said, and I'm quoting

1290
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:19,280
Speaker 2: right now, it's whoever wants to pay the most money,

1291
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 2: raised the most money by the best players, by the

1292
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 2: most players, is going to have the best opportunity to win.

1293
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 2: I don't think that's the spirit of college athletics. And

1294
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 2: I guess that's why he basically said, huh, I've had

1295
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 2: enough on quitting and his wife, Terry, came out and said, Hey,

1296
01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 2: all the things I believed in for all the years,

1297
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 2: fifty years of coaching with my wife no longer existing

1298
01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,560
Speaker 2: college athletics. That was a red alert that we really

1299
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 2: are creating a circumstance here that is not beneficial to

1300
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 2: the development of young people. All right, so he's out,

1301
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,640
Speaker 2: he's no longer coaching. I get it. And look, if

1302
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,040
Speaker 2: I'm a coach, I don't think I want to go

1303
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,479
Speaker 2: out there and recruit a kid. The kid's going to say, coach,

1304
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:55,440
Speaker 2: I got two questions for you. How am I going

1305
01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 2: to play? And how much am I going to get?

1306
01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 2: And that's basically what's going on right now, buck, isn't it.

1307
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:02,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean there are a lot of things that

1308
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:05,440
Speaker 4: are going on with it now. More than ever, kids

1309
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 4: feel like they're entitled to playing time, and if they

1310
01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 4: don't get the playing time, then they bounce, they go

1311
01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 4: to another situation. You couple that with the fact that

1312
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,560
Speaker 4: people are getting paid. It's a lot different for coaches

1313
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 4: now than it's ever been. That's me just putting the

1314
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 4: fact out there. Regardless of whether we want kids to

1315
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,640
Speaker 4: get played and get all their nil money and those

1316
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 4: things what is happening the coaches and the values that

1317
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:33,320
Speaker 4: you teach the team. It's increasingly becoming more difficult to

1318
01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:36,800
Speaker 4: teach those when it is becoming more me centric, particularly

1319
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,800
Speaker 4: at the collegiate level. While everyone would say, like, hey,

1320
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 4: coaches have benefited from a long time from the system

1321
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 4: as it used to be constructed, dude, it's a different time.

1322
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 4: For Nick Saban, it's different because I've not only heard him,

1323
01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:54,160
Speaker 4: I've talked to coaches who've talked about it. How challenging

1324
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 4: it can be when the backup quarterback or the backup

1325
01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 4: running back wants to come upstairs and they need more money,

1326
01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:02,560
Speaker 4: they want to jump in the portal in those things,

1327
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,240
Speaker 4: it just makes it hard to kind of build the

1328
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:08,120
Speaker 4: continuity that you've had in the past. But to each

1329
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 4: his own, players do have the empowerment, they do have

1330
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:14,800
Speaker 4: the leverage when it comes to being able to leave.

1331
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 4: But we're also seeing that a lot of players that

1332
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 4: are jumping into the portal and doing those things, a

1333
01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:22,560
Speaker 4: lot of them are dying in the portal because no

1334
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 4: one is picking them up and saving them.

1335
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 3: They just kind of find their ways of.

1336
01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:28,240
Speaker 4: Transfer and they never get back to the level where

1337
01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:31,040
Speaker 4: they were it's a changing time in a different time,

1338
01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:34,400
Speaker 4: and the playing field isn't level. Because you have the

1339
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 4: big schools, they have all the money, they can do

1340
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:39,600
Speaker 4: it differently than some of the smaller schools and so

1341
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,200
Speaker 4: it is just a challenge all around.

1342
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 2: You hit it right on the head. Now, Look, I

1343
01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 2: think you and I both agree that players really do

1344
01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:47,040
Speaker 2: need to get paid. What they bring to the university

1345
01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 2: is ridiculous. I mean the increase enrollment, they sell, merchandise

1346
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 2: that can exposeure, they get on TV, whatever it is.

1347
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:54,520
Speaker 2: They need to get paid and they're working. I mean

1348
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 2: they're working people, they really are. I don't think that

1349
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 2: have to be unionized that the Dartmouth basketball team is

1350
01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 2: trying to do, but I think they you need to

1351
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:03,360
Speaker 2: get paid because they're putting extra time and effort and

1352
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 2: the university's benefiting from it. But it's not necessarily based

1353
01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 2: on talent or the sport that they're in. I think

1354
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 2: it's based on the brand and based on social media.

1355
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 2: And that's the problem right there, because here's the question

1356
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:17,080
Speaker 2: I have, and maybe you can help me with it,

1357
01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:20,920
Speaker 2: because the question is should an athlete get paid for

1358
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 2: what he may do, or should an athlete get paid

1359
01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:26,920
Speaker 2: for what he's accomplished on the high school level, and

1360
01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 2: that's why he's being recruited in the first place. A

1361
01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:32,800
Speaker 2: coach is recruiting on the five star athlete that he

1362
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 2: was in high school? Or are they recruiting this guy

1363
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:37,960
Speaker 2: because I see his potential in this kid and he

1364
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:41,080
Speaker 2: may do well. That's a big question, and that's the

1365
01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:44,080
Speaker 2: question I post coming in here. Is it potential or

1366
01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,400
Speaker 2: is it performance? That's the big question.

1367
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:51,040
Speaker 4: I think it's a combination. It's a combination of the

1368
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,120
Speaker 4: potential and the performance. Like the performance is what they've done,

1369
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:56,240
Speaker 4: but the potential is what you hope they will do.

1370
01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 4: And what you try to do is you try to

1371
01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:01,480
Speaker 4: look at all the factor's, height, weight, side, speed, all

1372
01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 4: of those things, and how much better can they be

1373
01:04:05,040 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 4: at the next level. What you may see, though, is

1374
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:12,520
Speaker 4: you may see teams not necessarily go hard after all

1375
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:14,480
Speaker 4: those five stars, but try and find some guys that

1376
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:15,360
Speaker 4: are a little below.

1377
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:17,800
Speaker 3: The radar that are more likely to be around.

1378
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,040
Speaker 4: It's hard now because a lot of guys are always

1379
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 4: looking for the next best opportunity. But the teams that

1380
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 4: are able to have continuity because they have guys that

1381
01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:28,600
Speaker 4: are around for three four or five years, those are

1382
01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:30,280
Speaker 4: gonna be the teams that rise to the top.

1383
01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:33,840
Speaker 2: Amazing, it really is. There's so much to touch on.

1384
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,000
Speaker 2: We just try to get the surface over here. We're

1385
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 2: going to continue with so much more. He's Bucket Brooks.

1411
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:53,880
Speaker 8: the tournament field because they got up ended by number

1412
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:56,320

1413
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,959

1414
01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:00,960

01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,000

1429
01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:40,920

1433
01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 8: Beach State their head coach, Dan Munson fired earlier this

1434
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,480
Speaker 8: week and they were gonna let him finish out the

1435

01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,120

Speaker 8: bad as I swollen shut and he was not able

1442
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:21,880
Speaker 8: to return. But man the last two minutes of that

1443
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:24,000
Speaker 8: game after it was a great pace, good back and

1444
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 8: forth action. It came to a standstill as there were

1445
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 8: several replay reviews, challenges and even the shot clock not

1446
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:33,080
Speaker 8: being able to work, and that's a generated a lot

1447
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:36,080
Speaker 8: of discussion around the league about the replay review policy

1448
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:39,000
Speaker 8: going forward as that really just sucked the life out

1449
01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 8: of that contest. Thunder Over the Grizzlies won eighteen one

1450

1468
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:37,720
Speaker 2: By the way, let me ask you this, but what

1469
01:08:37,760 --> 01:08:39,960
Speaker 2: about the number one seeds? You have any idea who

1470
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:42,160
Speaker 2: the number one seeds might be? I'll give you mind

1471
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 2: if you're interested, which I think.

1472
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:46,760
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, you can tell me. I think they're still

1473
01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:47,519
Speaker 3: trying to figure it out.

1474
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:50,960
Speaker 2: You got you can and Purdue you kind of Purdue

1475
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 2: for sure. I still believe even Houston got trampled by

1476
01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 2: Iowa State yesterday, used to will be number one because

1477
01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:58,160
Speaker 2: they won the conference the Big twelve. But I think

1478
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,320
Speaker 2: Iowa State toll be number one as well. I would

1479
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:02,920
Speaker 2: stayed Uston, Purduing, Yukon. Those are the four number one

1480
01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:04,759
Speaker 2: seeds in my mind anyway.

1481
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 4: So you're saying, IOA stayed over North Carolina?

1482
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 2: Interesting? Yeah, yeah, we have North Well be tight, be tight.

1483
01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:16,400
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, sorry, did I understand?

1484
01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:16,760
Speaker 3: All right?

1485
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:16,840
Speaker 2: No?

1486
01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:19,080
Speaker 3: No, no, I find it interesting.

1487
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,240
Speaker 4: I find it interesting with the Turney Attorney results on

1488
01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:25,800
Speaker 4: how that goes, I would say that, uh, the three

1489
01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:27,800
Speaker 4: that you named, I would just have Carolina's number one

1490
01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:29,680
Speaker 4: seed in the West. Given the fact that they won

1491
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:31,880
Speaker 4: the ACC title, they made it to the Attorney Final,

1492
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:34,599
Speaker 4: and those things, I would think that would have maybe

1493
01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,559
Speaker 4: more significance than Attorney win, just because the regular season

1494
01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:39,120
Speaker 4: is the four resume.

1495
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 3: But right, we'll see.

1496
01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 2: You know, it's could be interesting. I mean, I wouldn't

1497
01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:44,280
Speaker 2: want to be in that committee answering the questions after

1498
01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:47,519
Speaker 2: it's out tonight because basically there'll be some big time

1499
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:49,880
Speaker 2: questions to be answered. All right, then let's talk about

1500
01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:52,760
Speaker 2: this now. College basketball, the portal season opens tomorrow, which

1501
01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 2: I find unbelievable. I mean, really and truly, You've got

1502
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,960
Speaker 2: a kid, maybe maybe like Saint John's right now is

1503
01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:00,120
Speaker 2: on the bubble because of what's happening now in the

1504
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,400
Speaker 2: Big East. Saint John's on the bubble. Say Saint John's

1505
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 2: not getting the tournament. You get a kid right now

1506
01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,479
Speaker 2: going to Rick Patino tour as a coach. I'm in

1507
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:09,280
Speaker 2: the portal. I'm out. I mean, it's crazy, it really is.

1508
01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 2: And the NC Double A rules now have been changed

1509
01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 2: back in December, multiple transfer athletes will deny the chance

1510
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:18,679
Speaker 2: to compete immediately. Now they were allowed by that federal

1511
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:21,000
Speaker 2: judge in West Virginia to play through the remainder of

1512
01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:23,719
Speaker 2: the academic year, and the ANC double A rules allow

1513
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:27,320
Speaker 2: underclassmen to transfer once without having to sit out a year.

1514
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,519
Speaker 2: Why I don't know, I don't know. But an additional

1515
01:10:30,600 --> 01:10:33,640
Speaker 2: transfer as that undergraduate generally requires the anti DOUBLEA to

1516
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:37,720
Speaker 2: grant the waiver, allowing the athlete to compete immediately. It's unbelievable.

1517
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:40,360
Speaker 2: It's like free agency on the college level. I don't

1518
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:43,800
Speaker 2: understand that at all. But to have the portal opening tomorrow,

1519
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:46,919
Speaker 2: I mean, teams that do not get in the tournament

1520
01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:50,360
Speaker 2: tonight tomorrow morning, these kids will be in the portal. Agreed.

1521
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:52,559
Speaker 2: I mean, it's crazy. The whole thing is nuts.

1522
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:56,600
Speaker 4: I mean, look, man, I think it's gonna be a

1523
01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:58,640
Speaker 4: part of it, you know, Like I think that's just

1524
01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:00,679
Speaker 4: what it is. And I think you see more teams

1525
01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:04,840
Speaker 4: decline n I T invitations because they want to get

1526
01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:08,040
Speaker 4: on with next year's business. You will see a rush

1527
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:10,640
Speaker 4: of players into the portal. You'll see a bunch of

1528
01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 4: coaches encourage their players to get into the portal so

1529
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:18,760
Speaker 4: they can start rebuilding their new teams. Look, we saw

1530
01:11:18,800 --> 01:11:21,200
Speaker 4: that last year with North Carolina. They didn't make the tournament,

1531
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:25,600
Speaker 4: declined the n T bid, and they went about the

1532
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 4: process of flipping their entire roster so they can be

1533
01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 4: a much better team this year. In the show, more

1534
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 4: teams are taking that approach because they're not seeing they're

1535
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:36,520
Speaker 4: not seeing the benefits.

1536
01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:37,000
Speaker 3: Of playing in the n I team.

1537
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:39,400
Speaker 4: When you know that team that may make some noise

1538
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:41,719
Speaker 4: in the n I t that team is not coming

1539
01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:43,840
Speaker 4: back next year. You're going to try and make them

1540
01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,439
Speaker 4: better as a coach, or they're going to try and

1541
01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:49,120
Speaker 4: find better opportunities for their individual selves.

1542
01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:52,320
Speaker 2: Okay. The transfer windough for men's and women's basketball runs

1543
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:55,400
Speaker 2: from tomorrow to May the first. Okay, you're close to

1544
01:11:55,439 --> 01:11:58,160
Speaker 2: the situation college athletics with coaches and things like that.

1545
01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:01,600
Speaker 2: I'm a coach. I got to my player after the

1546
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 2: season is over today and my team did not make

1547
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,360
Speaker 2: the NCAA Tournament and we may get an n T bid,

1548
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 2: but you know, I'm not gonna go. It doesn't make

1549
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,320
Speaker 2: a difference to me. So I got to a player, said, look,

1550
01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 2: let me tell you something, Joe, You're not going to

1551
01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:13,880
Speaker 2: play next year. If I were you, I put my

1552
01:12:13,920 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 2: name in the portal. Is that how it works or

1553
01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:18,599
Speaker 2: to plo. The player comes to the coach at times

1554
01:12:18,720 --> 01:12:21,400
Speaker 2: and the player says, coach, I haven't played much this year.

1555
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:22,960
Speaker 2: I want to be in the portal. I'm going through

1556
01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 2: the portal. How does that work?

1557
01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:28,680
Speaker 4: Every team has exit meetings with every player, and at

1558
01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:33,360
Speaker 4: that time, as a coach, you would tell the player

1559
01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:38,160
Speaker 4: how you evaluated their current season, what you want them

1560
01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:40,800
Speaker 4: to work on for next season, and what their role

1561
01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:43,080
Speaker 4: might be next season if they return.

1562
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:46,679
Speaker 3: At that At that in that meeting, it might.

1563
01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:49,360
Speaker 4: Also be a chance for you to tell the player, hey, man,

1564
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:51,439
Speaker 4: it may be best for you to jump on the

1565
01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:54,480
Speaker 4: port and see if you can find a better situation elsewhere.

1566
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:56,720
Speaker 4: The player may say, hey, you know what, coach, I

1567
01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,160
Speaker 4: appreciate everything that you've done, but I'm gonna go and

1568
01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:01,479
Speaker 4: explore and see if I provide a better situation for me.

1569
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:05,479
Speaker 4: But everybody will have these hard or heart meetings starting

1570
01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:08,679
Speaker 4: on Monday, so you can determine the best course of action.

1571
01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:11,639
Speaker 4: One as the program, but two as an individual player.

1572
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:15,599
Speaker 2: Okay, so every coach at NCAA Division one basketball men's,

1573
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:18,000
Speaker 2: we'll sit with the men's for a second. Will be given.

1574
01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:23,400
Speaker 2: I guess an online list of portal candidates beginning this week.

1575
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:25,400
Speaker 2: Is that how it works? In other words, I say,

1576
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:29,040
Speaker 2: I play for university X. I'm not happy. I want

1577
01:13:29,040 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 2: to go to a different school forever. The reason maybe

1578
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:33,840
Speaker 2: I'm homesick. I want to go to a college near

1579
01:13:33,920 --> 01:13:36,200
Speaker 2: my home. So I put my name in that portal.

1580
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:38,559
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess have the file online and they

1581
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:41,320
Speaker 2: put my name in there, so it'll say Joe Jones

1582
01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 2: College X six seven senior, whatever it may be, and

1583
01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 2: then every college coach of Division one gets a copy

1584
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:49,800
Speaker 2: of that and they could go after that kid. Is

1585
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:50,519
Speaker 2: that how it works?

1586
01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:53,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, like once you put once, you put your thing

1587
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,519
Speaker 4: into portal. Like their people in every program that are

1588
01:13:56,600 --> 01:13:58,840
Speaker 4: checking the portal so they see who's in there. They

1589
01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,519
Speaker 4: evaluate the players, and if they find someone that is

1590
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:05,200
Speaker 4: a potential fit, they'll move on them. That's how it

1591
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:05,920
Speaker 4: always has been.

1592
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:07,720
Speaker 3: That's that's kind of what it is.

1593
01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:11,040
Speaker 4: And so what you're trying to tell players is, hey man,

1594
01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:14,000
Speaker 4: you can jump in there, but it's no guarantee that

1595
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:16,160
Speaker 4: it's gonna work out for you. It's just one of

1596
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:18,120
Speaker 4: the things that you have to kind of go through

1597
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:20,519
Speaker 4: and do. I think it's tough though. I think it's

1598
01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:23,479
Speaker 4: tough on a lot of players, and I think it's

1599
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,040
Speaker 4: tough on coaches trying to figure out what's best.

1600
01:14:26,400 --> 01:14:28,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, these coaches talk about I want to create a culture.

1601
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:30,400
Speaker 2: You can't create a culture in this day and age

1602
01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 2: because the coaches are leaving. They leave all the time.

1603
01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:35,360
Speaker 2: But what about players they're leaving? What happens if I

1604
01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:37,599
Speaker 2: put my name in the portal and I'm not picked,

1605
01:14:37,760 --> 01:14:40,559
Speaker 2: no college wants me, then then I come back to

1606
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:42,679
Speaker 2: where I was, or the coach says, wait a minute,

1607
01:14:42,760 --> 01:14:44,040
Speaker 2: you don't want to be here. You put your name

1608
01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:45,720
Speaker 2: in the portal, I don't want you anymore. Does that

1609
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 2: happen as well?

1610
01:14:47,479 --> 01:14:50,040
Speaker 4: It can't happen, you know. That's the chance that you

1611
01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:52,320
Speaker 4: take when you jump in. You jump in the porter.

1612
01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:54,400
Speaker 4: There's no guarantee that there's gonna be a spot for

1613
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:59,200
Speaker 4: you when you return. That's why you tell kids tread

1614
01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:02,160
Speaker 4: lightly when it comes to it, because what you're doing

1615
01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:06,280
Speaker 4: is you're leaving a sure spot for an opportunity. But

1616
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:08,280
Speaker 4: you know if the opportunity is going to be better, if

1617
01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:09,400
Speaker 4: at all.

1618
01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:11,439
Speaker 2: And I could see why coaches getting out of it.

1619
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:13,240
Speaker 2: I mean, a guy like Jay Wright, who had success

1620
01:15:13,240 --> 01:15:15,960
Speaker 2: in Villanova. He's no longer coaching. He's on TV right

1621
01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:19,479
Speaker 2: now doing analysts work on the CBS, and I see

1622
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:22,360
Speaker 2: him there. But look, it's like recruiting never ends. I mean,

1623
01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:24,320
Speaker 2: you're going out there looking at junior college and high

1624
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,559
Speaker 2: school kids, and then when the portal starts, you got

1625
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:28,519
Speaker 2: to do this whole thing all over again because you

1626
01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:30,960
Speaker 2: have no idea how many spots you're gonna have open

1627
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,439
Speaker 2: on your roster. If these kids get picked up, you

1628
01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 2: get three kids picked up on the portal from your roster,

1629
01:15:36,320 --> 01:15:38,920
Speaker 2: you're screwed. You get your stuff from square one again.

1630
01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:42,920
Speaker 2: So again that term building a culture, you can't. You

1631
01:15:42,960 --> 01:15:47,200
Speaker 2: can't build a culture. Your starting team is gone. It's crazy.

1632
01:15:47,960 --> 01:15:50,519
Speaker 2: Whose idea was it to do this, this portal thing.

1633
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,439
Speaker 2: I don't get it. It's free agency on the college level,

1634
01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 2: and I think it's stupid. I think it's crazy.

1635
01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:59,080
Speaker 4: Well, but it's always been good for coaches, but not

1636
01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:02,559
Speaker 4: for the players. The players were restricted. Coaches could leave

1637
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:05,200
Speaker 4: at any time, but players were forced to stay at

1638
01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:07,880
Speaker 4: a university. And even though you tell them a pick

1639
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:11,720
Speaker 4: the university based on the academic and athletic experience that

1640
01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:13,679
Speaker 4: you want to have a lot of that is shaped

1641
01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:17,080
Speaker 4: by who the coach is. Coaches have been leaving left

1642
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:20,160
Speaker 4: and right. They always leave, They leave at any time,

1643
01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:22,640
Speaker 4: at the drop of a hat, and they needed to

1644
01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:26,639
Speaker 4: have some protections put in so the players could make

1645
01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:28,320
Speaker 4: a move because when a new coach comes in, what

1646
01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:30,960
Speaker 4: does a new coach do? He brings his own players,

1647
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:34,400
Speaker 4: so it messes up your experience when a coach bounces.

1648
01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:37,559
Speaker 4: They needed to have that ability to be able to

1649
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:40,840
Speaker 4: kind of move around and do some things. But they

1650
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:41,640
Speaker 4: also need to.

1651
01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:45,880
Speaker 3: Have enough awareness self awareness to.

1652
01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:49,080
Speaker 4: Understand when the situation is good for them, when the

1653
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:53,559
Speaker 4: situation should be one that they should explore, and what

1654
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:59,200
Speaker 4: is out there, what are the potential i'll say, detrimental

1655
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:03,240
Speaker 4: factors that that could happen if they do decide to enter, uh,

1656
01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 4: you know, into the portal.

1657
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:08,000
Speaker 2: Crazy, It really is. The whole thing is crazy. But

1658
01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:10,040
Speaker 2: we'll see what happened in the miss starts tomorrow. There

1659
01:17:10,040 --> 01:17:13,120
Speaker 2: we go, He's Bucky Brooks, I'm Andy fermweel Fox Sports,

1661
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:19,760
Speaker 2: his dominance? Well, we'll see because bottom barrel betting it

1662
01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 2: is freaking next botom barrel betting right around the ben

1663
01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:24,800
Speaker 2: is about nine minutes before the top of the hour.

Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks and Andy Furman. This is Fox Sports

Speaker 1: It's bottom bottom life, funny to sleep.

1669
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 2: People, get my money. I'll put your brain to sleep betting.

1670
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:45,320
Speaker 2: Yes it is. And there's one person that could get

1671
01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:47,479
Speaker 2: this going and he is the eye man here.

1672
01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 9: He is.

1673
01:17:48,520 --> 01:17:51,280
Speaker 5: All right. So last week, Andy, I told you you

1674
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:53,800
Speaker 5: had a chance where if you swept Bucky, you had

1675
01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:57,760
Speaker 5: a chance to tie it up. Yes, Unfortunately, Bucky won

1676
01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:01,320
Speaker 5: last week four to one, so he has taken a

1677
01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:05,639
Speaker 5: commanding overall lead of twenty two to fourteen. But Andy,

Speaker 5: Let's win some back this week, right, thank you?

1681

1691
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:38,960
Speaker 2: everything in the world of sports. But I'm gonna give

1692
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:40,600
Speaker 2: him a run for the money with Chia and so

1693
01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:43,519
Speaker 2: Bucky that's it.

1694
01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:45,479
Speaker 4: I mean, that's a good pick, but I'm gonna go

1695
01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:46,120
Speaker 4: the other way.

1696
01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go the other way.

1697
01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 5: I'm looking to go to the other Alphian and ard'onto

1698
01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:55,120
Speaker 5: for Bucky. All right. Next, we're going back to high Lie.

1699
01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:57,680
Speaker 5: I actually pronounced it correct this time. So first we

1700
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 5: have Arta at plus one seventy five versus Ubila at

1701
01:19:02,280 --> 01:19:04,519
Speaker 5: minus two thirty. Bucky will start with you.

1702
01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:07,920
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm gonna take arts like I like the adds.

1703
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:10,120
Speaker 3: I like being the favorite. I'm going that way. I'm good.

1704
01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:11,920
Speaker 2: Do you have I've got a question? Could you tell

1705
01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:15,920
Speaker 2: me like they're where they're from, the countries that they're from.

1706
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, that information is not available to me.

1707
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:20,800
Speaker 2: I'm trying my best.

1708
01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:21,840
Speaker 5: Google search away, though.

1709
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 2: I'm going with Ubila, Ubila, Ubila.

1710
01:19:25,400 --> 01:19:25,800
Speaker 4: All right.

1711
01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:30,160
Speaker 5: Next, the Chinese Basketball League.

1712
01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:32,960
Speaker 2: Oh, this is me, Yes, this is uh.

1713
01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:36,040
Speaker 5: We have a matchup between two Beijing teams. It's the

1714
01:19:36,080 --> 01:19:39,320
Speaker 5: Beijing Royal Fighters at plus one eighty versus the Beijing

1715
01:19:39,439 --> 01:19:41,840
Speaker 5: Ducks at minus two eighteen. Andy, Who you got?

1716
01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:44,000
Speaker 2: Oh? The Ducks? I think I know a couple of

1717
01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:47,240
Speaker 2: players on the Ducks. I really do the Ducks my team.

1718
01:19:47,080 --> 01:19:48,760
Speaker 5: And Bucky should I take that to me? And you're

1719
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:50,200
Speaker 5: taking the Royal Fighters?

1720
01:19:50,560 --> 01:19:52,519
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm one taking the Royal.

1721
01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 2: From you know, it's so easy. If it were right,

1722
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:56,760
Speaker 2: Pick will take the other way because he knows I'm

1723
01:19:56,760 --> 01:20:00,880
Speaker 2: going down the hole. I'm back, all right.

1724
01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:05,719
Speaker 5: Next e Sports Valerine, excuse me, the Valerant Champions Tour.

1725
01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:09,599
Speaker 5: We have paper Rex at minus one twenty five versus

01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:13,200
Speaker 5: Team Heretics at minus one oh five. Bucky, who you got?

1727
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:17,040
Speaker 5: I'll give you Paper Recks, Paper Rex.

1728
01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:19,280
Speaker 2: I'm gonna pull a Bucky Books move. I'm gonna go

1729
01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:20,640
Speaker 2: with Neratex Heretics.

1730
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:21,240
Speaker 3: What it is?

1731
01:20:21,680 --> 01:20:22,440
Speaker 5: Heretics?

1732
01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:23,080
Speaker 2: Heretics?

1733
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,720
Speaker 5: Alright, I'll go with them, all right. Last, but not least,

1734
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:29,839
Speaker 5: Darts the Modus Super Series we have. We have Jimmy Hendrix.

1735
01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:33,640
Speaker 5: Fun name that I don't care. Who's going on? All right,

1736
01:20:33,760 --> 01:20:36,559
Speaker 5: Jimmy Hendrix, are you kidding me, Jimmy Hendrix. It is

1737
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:40,080
Speaker 5: spelled with a K instead of an x ks. All right, Bucky,

1738
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:42,360
Speaker 5: you're gonna go Scott Taylor then at minus one fifteen.

1739
01:20:43,880 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll do that, all right.

Speaker 2: ti rack dot com. The way tire buying should be.

1751
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:22,960
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks, I'm Andy Furman, and away we go,

1752
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:26,160
Speaker 2: and Bucky, I hate putting you on the spot, but

1753
01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:28,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do it anyway. All right, But you played

1754
01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:32,880
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Was there ever a person or persons

1755
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:35,360
Speaker 2: on a roster that you played on that you just

1756
01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:38,960
Speaker 2: couldn't stand? You couldn't stand it. You couldn't stand looking

1757
01:21:39,000 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 2: at the guy, you know, but you got to kind

1758
01:21:41,040 --> 01:21:43,479
Speaker 2: of suck it up because he's a teammate. You got

1759
01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:45,760
Speaker 2: to fight together in the trenches. But still in all

1760
01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:47,920
Speaker 2: you never wanted to go out party with the guy,

1761
01:21:48,080 --> 01:21:51,080
Speaker 2: never went socializing with the guy. You just couldn't stand

1762
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,519
Speaker 2: the guy for whatever the reason. There had to be

1763
01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:56,920
Speaker 2: someone somewhere in your career in the National Football League.

1764
01:21:58,520 --> 01:21:59,200
Speaker 3: No, not like that.

1765
01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:00,880
Speaker 4: I mean, I think I think we all hang with

1766
01:22:00,920 --> 01:22:01,920
Speaker 4: our own different people in.

1767
01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:02,519
Speaker 3: The locker room.

1768
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:05,519
Speaker 4: It's unrealistic to spread fifty three years in the locker

1769
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:08,679
Speaker 4: room to all get along. So I didn't have anybody

1770
01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:11,120
Speaker 4: that I wouldly hated. I think there are guys that

1771
01:22:11,160 --> 01:22:14,240
Speaker 4: you gravitate tours that you're more friendly with, but no

1772
01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,000
Speaker 4: one that I had to disdain for that if I

1773
01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:17,840
Speaker 4: saw them today, I'll be like, oh my god, I

1774
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 4: can't stand and let's go on the other side of

1775
01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:21,360
Speaker 4: the street. I don't have that, and I don't think

1776
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 4: most people have that. It's uncommon to have something like

1777
01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:25,000
Speaker 4: that in the locker room.

1778
01:22:25,640 --> 01:22:29,160
Speaker 2: I would think there's some players somewhere that have that

1779
01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:32,559
Speaker 2: feeling towards Aaron Rodgers. Maybe I'm mistaken. I just think

1780
01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:34,240
Speaker 2: that he's the kind of guy you say, you know what,

1781
01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:37,800
Speaker 2: play the game and shut up. Because he came out

1782
01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:39,880
Speaker 2: this week, well basically it wasn't him, but it was

1783
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:42,280
Speaker 2: in the New York Times the other day they reported

1784
01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:46,479
Speaker 2: that outside of presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Junior has

1785
01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:49,200
Speaker 2: now made overtures to the Jets quarterback to be his

1786
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:53,599
Speaker 2: running mate for this November's presidential election. Rogers obviously has

1787
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:57,320
Speaker 2: not commented yet, but the two have apparently gone hiking together,

1788
01:22:57,680 --> 01:23:01,400
Speaker 2: and the Jets quarterback and former progress Minnesota governor Jesse

1789
01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 2: Ventura are the top on Kennedy's list. It's unbelievable that

1790
01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:09,120
Speaker 2: he would even consider Aaron Rodgers. And here's the question

1791
01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:13,559
Speaker 2: I have, and could Aaron Rodgers technically do this? You know,

1792
01:23:13,840 --> 01:23:18,320
Speaker 2: the campaign season kind of gets crazy around July, and

1793
01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:21,040
Speaker 2: that happens to be when the NFL training camps open up.

1794
01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:24,839
Speaker 2: And in the Washington Post, I had this little segment

1795
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:26,599
Speaker 2: over here just the other day. I checked it out.

1796
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:30,639
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris, the VP, she had thirty six in person

1797
01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:34,840
Speaker 2: events and more than fifty online events during the quarantine.

1798
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:39,080
Speaker 2: And Mike Pence, who's former vice president, had sixty three

1799
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 2: in person events and extremely busy as running mates back

1800
01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:46,280
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty. There's probably no way on God's green

1801
01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:49,320
Speaker 2: Earth that Aaron Rodgers to keep a fraction of that

1802
01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:52,400
Speaker 2: pace and place starting quarterback for the Jets. I don't

1803
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:53,760
Speaker 2: understand this. It's one or the other.

1804
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:57,200
Speaker 4: I gotta believe, yeah, it's one of the other. I

1805
01:23:57,200 --> 01:24:00,599
Speaker 4: think this is probably one that kind of got away

1806
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:04,400
Speaker 4: from the media. I think obviously like he may make overtures,

1807
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:07,120
Speaker 4: like Robert Kenny Junior may make overtures, but we've never

1808
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:09,840
Speaker 4: heard Aaron say that, Oh yeah, I'm a run for VP.

1809
01:24:10,000 --> 01:24:11,200
Speaker 3: It wouldn't be a doable deal.

1810
01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:13,680
Speaker 4: He would have to move away from football, and if

1811
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:17,000
Speaker 4: he has political aspirations, he would have to pursue those things.

1812
01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:21,320
Speaker 4: Right now, I can't see that happening, But a more

1813
01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 4: power to him if he decides that's what he wants

1814
01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:23,360
Speaker 4: to do.

1815
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:24,719
Speaker 3: I just will see it in the cars.

1816
01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 2: You know, he's a great quarterback. He's a Hall of

1817
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:29,280
Speaker 2: Fame quarterback, there's no doubt about that. But he's got

1818
01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:32,320
Speaker 2: some delusions here these and narcissistis he loves himself. He

1819
01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,679
Speaker 2: loves hearing himself talk. I mean, when he was deciding

1820
01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:36,679
Speaker 2: where he's going to play, he stayed in a darkness

1821
01:24:36,680 --> 01:24:38,880
Speaker 2: street treat for a four or five days and a

1822
01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:41,599
Speaker 2: hut no light in the cave. Really, then he's talking

1823
01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:43,720
Speaker 2: about being the host of Jeopardy. Now he wants to

1824
01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:45,960
Speaker 2: be running in the White House. Perhaps, I don't know.

1825
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:48,000
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. But here's the deal with him.

1826
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:50,519
Speaker 2: But I mean, and that's fine. You know, what he's

1827
01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:52,479
Speaker 2: done in the past is final, except the things that

1828
01:24:52,520 --> 01:24:56,040
Speaker 2: he has said can make you crazy. In private conversations,

1829
01:24:56,240 --> 01:25:00,320
Speaker 2: he shared some really deranged conspiracy theories about twenty twelve

1830
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:03,400
Speaker 2: in the Sandy Hook School shooting not being real and

1831
01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:09,000
Speaker 2: a reporter for CNN, Pam Pamela or Pamela Brown, I'm sorry,

1832
01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:12,120
Speaker 2: one of the journalists writing the piece. She was covering

1833
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,519
Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby for CNN back in twenty thirteen when

1834
01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:18,320
Speaker 2: she was introduced to Aaron Rodgers and Rogers obviously at

1835
01:25:18,320 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 2: the time was the Green Bay Packers. This was at

1836
01:25:20,439 --> 01:25:23,320
Speaker 2: a post derby party and hearing that she was a

1837
01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:27,880
Speaker 2: journalist with CNN, Aaron Rodgers began attacking the news media

1838
01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:31,320
Speaker 2: why for covering up important stories In his mind as

1839
01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:33,960
Speaker 2: he said, he brought up the tragic killing of twenty

1840
01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 2: children and six adults by a gunman, as you remember,

1841
01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 2: at Sandy Hook Elementary School, claiming to get this it

1842
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:44,240
Speaker 2: was actually a government inside job and the media was

1843
01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 2: intentionally ignoring it. These are the things that he's come

1844
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:50,240
Speaker 2: up with. Such conspiracy theories were also later the center

1845
01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:53,120
Speaker 2: of lawsuits obviously brought up by the victims' families, and

1846
01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:55,720
Speaker 2: they were sued by the theorist Alex Jones, if you

1847
01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:58,280
Speaker 2: remember on that matter. So Aaron Rodgers has his own

1848
01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:02,240
Speaker 2: warmth mind about certain things with COVID vaccine and things

1849
01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:05,280
Speaker 2: like that, I'm not so certain he'd be that healthy

1850
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:07,400
Speaker 2: of a candidate to be in the White House either.

1851
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:10,400
Speaker 2: I just don't think he would be well.

1852
01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:11,040
Speaker 3: I mean, just in pens.

1853
01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:13,120
Speaker 4: It depends on if they're faction of folks that believe

1854
01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,479
Speaker 4: some of the same stuff that he believes in. That

1855
01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:18,919
Speaker 4: ultimately would determine whether he would be a viable candidate,

1856
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:22,720
Speaker 4: because that's like people kind of vote based on like

1857
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,599
Speaker 4: their mentality and mindset, and if there are enough people

1858
01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:27,919
Speaker 4: that kind of believe in the things that Ann Rogers

1859
01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:31,400
Speaker 4: has been out here discussing and the conspiracy theories in

1860
01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:34,519
Speaker 4: those things, then he'll have an opportunity to boost his

1861
01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:37,439
Speaker 4: running makes case and Robert Kennedy Jr.

1862
01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 3: Look man, There've been.

1863
01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:43,320
Speaker 4: A ton of former athletes, former football players that have

1864
01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 4: kind of made their way into political space. So it's

1865
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,960
Speaker 4: not something that can't be done. We saw Jack Kemp

1866
01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:54,000
Speaker 4: be able to pull it off. We've seen others. Cory

1867
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:58,439
Speaker 4: Simon is a former Indianapolis Colt Scott is a Maybe

1868
01:26:58,680 --> 01:27:01,920
Speaker 4: House Representatives center down in Florida. So they've been others

1869
01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:03,920
Speaker 4: who've been able to do it. Aaron Ross. So it's

1870
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 4: not uncommon for a football player to elect to take

1871
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 4: that path, that journey. We just haven't seen an active

1872
01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:15,000
Speaker 4: player like Aaron Rodgers decided to, Hey, that's what I

1873
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:15,840
Speaker 4: want to pursue.

1874
01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:20,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, and please understand, I'm not against athletes or anyone

1875
01:27:20,800 --> 01:27:23,360
Speaker 2: really running for a political office. I mean, as you say,

1876
01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 2: it's been done before, and then some of them been

1877
01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:28,040
Speaker 2: very successful doing so. And one in particular coast to

1878
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:30,519
Speaker 2: mind all the time is Bill Bradley and basketball did it.

1879
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:32,920
Speaker 2: But the point is this that I just think that

1880
01:27:33,200 --> 01:27:35,200
Speaker 2: his idea is and what he has done, and the

1881
01:27:35,240 --> 01:27:37,760
Speaker 2: fact that he's trying to juggle this and football at

1882
01:27:37,800 --> 01:27:39,800
Speaker 2: the same time, to me, doesn't make any sense. And

1883
01:27:39,880 --> 01:27:42,599
Speaker 2: CNN went back and they had a person at CNN

1884
01:27:42,840 --> 01:27:47,240
Speaker 2: who recalled an interview several years ago that Aaron Rodgers claimed, quote,

1885
01:27:47,439 --> 01:27:51,800
Speaker 2: Sandy Hook never happened. All those children never existed, They

1886
01:27:51,840 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 2: were all actors. Okay, that's what Aaron Rodgers has said,

1887
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:57,479
Speaker 2: according to someone from CNN. We'll see what happens there.

1888
01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:00,559
Speaker 2: But it's crazy what he has done. And I would

1889
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:03,160
Speaker 2: tell you right now, and I have no proof on this,

1890
01:28:03,320 --> 01:28:06,000
Speaker 2: and I haven't seen any results on it, but I

1891
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:09,439
Speaker 2: would say the majority of the fans in Green Bay

1892
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:13,719
Speaker 2: are probably pleased that he's gone. I don't think anybody

1893
01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:16,800
Speaker 2: really misses him in Green Bay right now, especially this

1894
01:28:16,920 --> 01:28:19,960
Speaker 2: season that they had with their quarterback last year. I

1895
01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:23,000
Speaker 2: don't think Aaron Rodgers is really that missed much in

1896
01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:24,160
Speaker 2: Green Bay last year.

1897
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:27,599
Speaker 4: He may not have been. It allowed him to do

1898
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:29,360
Speaker 4: some different things. It allowed him to get the young

1899
01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:32,000
Speaker 4: guys on the field, It allowed mattln Floyd to run

1900
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:37,559
Speaker 4: his offense kind of unobstructed, and that that kind of

1901
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:41,440
Speaker 4: helped the Packers evolve become a different kind of team.

1902
01:28:42,080 --> 01:28:43,799
Speaker 3: You like, all of that that stuff.

1903
01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:47,360
Speaker 4: I think the team appears to be a little better

1904
01:28:47,400 --> 01:28:50,360
Speaker 4: connected in terms of like from top to bottom, everyone

1905
01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:52,960
Speaker 4: getting along, being on the same page. All of that

1906
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,080
Speaker 4: stuff matters. Aaron Rodgers is a great quarterback. He'd go

1907
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:58,880
Speaker 4: down as an all time legend. But for the Packers

1908
01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:00,720
Speaker 4: it might have been time. It might have been time

1909
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:03,559
Speaker 4: to move on from him and allow their young players

1910
01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:04,800
Speaker 4: to kind of grow and take over.

1911
01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:09,519
Speaker 2: I would say this. I mean, Aaron Rodgers, as you say,

1912
01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:11,519
Speaker 2: is a great quarterback, and he's a Hall of Famer,

1913
01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:14,439
Speaker 2: But I think Aaron Rodgers loves himself more than he

1914
01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:17,160
Speaker 2: loves the game of football. And I think right now,

1915
01:29:17,240 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 2: if you notice, this announcement came out in the middle

1916
01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 2: of free agency, and I think Aaron Rodgers bumped the

1917
01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:26,400
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson and Kirk Cousin's story. And I think that's

1918
01:29:26,400 --> 01:29:28,559
Speaker 2: what he likes to do. He's the center of attention.

1919
01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:30,720
Speaker 2: He likes to get that look. He's not the only

1920
01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 2: athlete that has done that. I get it. But there's

1921
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:36,240
Speaker 2: something about the way he does things and his warped

1922
01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 2: mind just rubs a lot of people the wrong way.

1923
01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:42,800
Speaker 2: As far as I'm concerned, I kind of enjoy it.

1924
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:45,600
Speaker 2: I'll tell you why, his tremendous father for us to

1925
01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:47,840
Speaker 2: talk about on the radio. That's what it is. But

1926
01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:50,720
Speaker 2: I think that if Rodgers goes in this direction with

1927
01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:52,800
Speaker 2: politics and wants to go to the White House, I

1928
01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:56,400
Speaker 2: think he's short changing both RFK Junior and he's short

1929
01:29:56,479 --> 01:29:58,800
Speaker 2: changing the Jets. You can't have both. You have to

1930
01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:00,760
Speaker 2: do one or the other. I think he'd be very

1931
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:03,479
Speaker 2: selfish for his teammates to do that. I mean, you

1932
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:07,160
Speaker 2: either full time football or full time full time politics.

1933
01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:09,600
Speaker 2: You can't do both. And I think that he'd be

1934
01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:13,040
Speaker 2: wise to make a decision real soon, because I think

1935
01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:15,920
Speaker 2: that decision is going to be made by RFK Jr.

1936
01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:19,160
Speaker 2: On Wednesday, I think Wednesday or the twenty sixth of

1937
01:30:19,280 --> 01:30:23,840
Speaker 2: March in Oakland. That's when Kennedy told CNN that he's

1938
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:26,519
Speaker 2: going to make make his decision whose running mate's going

1939
01:30:26,520 --> 01:30:29,559
Speaker 2: to be Jesse Ventura or Aaron Rodgers. I mean, I

1940
01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:31,840
Speaker 2: think you got to say, look, is he going to

1941
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:33,479
Speaker 2: be a football player or is he going to be

1942
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:37,360
Speaker 2: a politician. You can't have both Night Cannibal.

1943
01:30:37,439 --> 01:30:39,360
Speaker 4: So he has to make those decisions quickly because the

1944
01:30:39,439 --> 01:30:41,360
Speaker 4: impacts the way the Jets would have to build out

1945
01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:46,200
Speaker 4: their team. Quarterback is the most important position. They're trying

1946
01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:49,840
Speaker 4: to put all these pieces around the quarterback. Presuming that

1947
01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,599
Speaker 4: it to be Aaron Rodgers. How much does that impact

1948
01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:57,240
Speaker 4: their plan? So hopefully Aaron Rodgers makes a quick decision

1949
01:30:57,280 --> 01:31:01,040
Speaker 4: and whatever that is, he can live with it. Look,

1950
01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:03,960
Speaker 4: it came out of nowhere, but I am not surprised

1951
01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:10,000
Speaker 4: that someone has decided to kind of knock knock the

1952
01:31:10,040 --> 01:31:12,959
Speaker 4: door down, and we'll kind of just try to explore

1953
01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:16,920
Speaker 4: what Aaron Rodgers wants to do after his football playing

1954
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:18,000
Speaker 4: days are all done.

1955
01:31:18,520 --> 01:31:21,439
Speaker 2: You know, it's gonna be unbelievable when Treny came starts

1956
01:31:21,479 --> 01:31:24,280
Speaker 2: in July, because I think the media is going to

1957
01:31:24,360 --> 01:31:27,200
Speaker 2: be all over the place to try to find out

1958
01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:31,000
Speaker 2: about this quote miracle comeback from that torn acl of

1959
01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. Now if he runs for the vice presidents,

1960
01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:36,559
Speaker 2: he's on the ticket for vice president. You know that

1961
01:31:36,960 --> 01:31:41,479
Speaker 2: media circus of the torn acl will be nothing as

1962
01:31:41,600 --> 01:31:45,599
Speaker 2: compared to the national media that travels with every campaign.

1963
01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:48,040
Speaker 2: It's gonna be unbelievable, which I think would not be

1964
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,800
Speaker 2: fair for the Jets, will not be fair for the

1965
01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:53,960
Speaker 2: National Football League. And more than that, talk about security.

1966
01:31:54,200 --> 01:31:57,599
Speaker 2: These have to be extra security required for Aaron Rodgers

1967
01:31:57,720 --> 01:31:59,800
Speaker 2: because of these reporters are to be following him with

1968
01:32:00,120 --> 01:32:02,360
Speaker 2: a campaign. I don't see it happening. I don't see

1969
01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:04,400
Speaker 2: it happening. But I think this is exactly what he

1970
01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:08,920
Speaker 2: wants because he's gotten center stage. That's what Aaron Rodgers wants.

1971
01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:11,160
Speaker 2: He wants center station. We knew he'd never be the

1972
01:32:11,160 --> 01:32:13,639
Speaker 2: host of Jeopardy, but he wanted his name out there.

1973
01:32:13,760 --> 01:32:15,120
Speaker 2: By the way, I did watch it when he did.

1974
01:32:15,280 --> 01:32:17,760
Speaker 2: He hosted. He wasn't too bad. He wasn't too bad

1975
01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:19,519
Speaker 2: as a host. But the point is, I don't think

1976
01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:20,880
Speaker 2: he ever really wanted to be the host.

1977
01:32:22,200 --> 01:32:24,920
Speaker 4: Yeah maybe, I mean, I know he was someone who's

1978
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:27,520
Speaker 4: very passionate about it, appeared to be very passionate about.

1979
01:32:28,439 --> 01:32:30,880
Speaker 3: Jeopardy and all things related to that.

1980
01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 4: Had an opportunity to go out there and guest hosts

1981
01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:36,200
Speaker 4: not necessarily conduct a full audition.

1982
01:32:36,320 --> 01:32:37,800
Speaker 3: But maybe he was a guest host for a week.

1983
01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:40,840
Speaker 4: They decided to go elsewhere when it came to naming

1984
01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:44,599
Speaker 4: the replacement for Alis Trebeck. But he is a guy

1985
01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:48,000
Speaker 4: who has very interest I am not surprised if he

1986
01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:52,400
Speaker 4: does come out and say he has political aspirations. There's

1987
01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:57,360
Speaker 4: something about the political space where it can satisfy maybe

1988
01:32:57,400 --> 01:33:01,439
Speaker 4: your need to not only help people, to like a

1989
01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:04,120
Speaker 4: voice of your opinion, say you're right, keep a track record,

1990
01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:07,599
Speaker 4: all those other things. Maybe that that kind of suits

1991
01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:09,920
Speaker 4: him and suits where he is now, where he wants

1992
01:33:09,960 --> 01:33:11,000
Speaker 4: to be later in life.

1993
01:33:11,320 --> 01:33:13,240
Speaker 2: Well, well, I'll tell you this much. He may have

1994
01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:15,280
Speaker 2: political aspirations, but it won't be on the ticket for

1995
01:33:15,320 --> 01:33:17,759
Speaker 2: the vice presidency because my man, and you're a man,

1996
01:33:17,880 --> 01:33:20,439
Speaker 2: the eye man tells us the decision was made. Yes,

1997
01:33:20,520 --> 01:33:23,000
Speaker 2: Is that correct, I man, they made the decision yesterday

1998
01:33:23,040 --> 01:33:23,559
Speaker 2: for the ticket.

1999
01:33:23,640 --> 01:33:26,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, VP didn't didn't want to interrupt you guys, but yeah, no, no.

2000
01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:29,280
Speaker 2: That's fine. But you still may run for some sort

2001
01:33:29,280 --> 01:33:31,200
Speaker 2: of an office, but not on the VP ticket.

2002
01:33:31,360 --> 01:33:34,600
Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, as of yesterday, the RFK didn't announce that

2003
01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:37,599
Speaker 5: Nicole Shanahan is his running mate. And I don't think

2004
01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:40,400
Speaker 5: there's any relation to Kyle Shanahan or any of that.

2005
01:33:40,520 --> 01:33:42,680
Speaker 5: But it wouldn't be the first time that a Shanahan

2006
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:44,679
Speaker 5: foiled Aaron Rodgers' plans.

2007
01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:47,679
Speaker 2: You'll say that, Well, I will tell you this much. Honestly,

2008
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:50,160
Speaker 2: you know, I think Aaron Rodgers got what he wanted.

2009
01:33:50,200 --> 01:33:53,840
Speaker 2: He superseded the Russell Wilson and Kirk Cousins news story

2010
01:33:53,920 --> 01:33:55,680
Speaker 2: just the other day, and he was out there for

2011
01:33:55,720 --> 01:33:57,840
Speaker 2: a while. And that's what he does. I mean, And

2012
01:33:57,880 --> 01:33:59,320
Speaker 2: it's not going to be the last we heard of

2013
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:02,280
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. But you know what, the more that he

2014
01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:05,679
Speaker 2: does things like this, the more Jimmy Kimmel attacks him,

2015
01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:08,400
Speaker 2: which I think is great because Jimmy Kimmel and he

2016
01:34:08,439 --> 01:34:11,519
Speaker 2: have gone like oil and water because he said that

2017
01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:15,880
Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel was involved with Jeffrey Epstein for a while,

2018
01:34:15,920 --> 01:34:18,320
Speaker 2: which was the furthestick from the truth. And I don't

2019
01:34:18,320 --> 01:34:20,960
Speaker 2: know where he gets these ideas from, but the point

2020
01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:24,919
Speaker 2: is that he's dangerous. Don't you think he's somewhat dangerous

2021
01:34:24,960 --> 01:34:27,200
Speaker 2: a little bit with the things that he says. I'm

2022
01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:29,719
Speaker 2: glad I'm not in Aaron Rodgers in his circle because

2023
01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:31,439
Speaker 2: he may leak something out that I've done.

2024
01:34:31,720 --> 01:34:36,000
Speaker 4: Really yeah, I would just say he just has to

2025
01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:39,080
Speaker 4: be really, really careful and responsible for what he puts

2026
01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:41,040
Speaker 4: out there, because whether he likes it or not, or

2027
01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:43,360
Speaker 4: whether he miss it or not, he's a role model

2028
01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:46,040
Speaker 4: and a lot of people will heed the words that

2029
01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:51,240
Speaker 4: he puts out there, found researched or not. He just

2030
01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:53,599
Speaker 4: has a responsibility to just be careful for what you say.

2031
01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:56,120
Speaker 4: You just don't want to put wild and wacky theories

2032
01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:57,160
Speaker 4: out there with no proof.

2033
01:34:57,400 --> 01:34:59,280
Speaker 3: And whatever he believes in, he believes in.

2034
01:34:59,640 --> 01:35:02,160
Speaker 4: I just I think is on him as a role

2035
01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:06,519
Speaker 4: model and a very prominent public figure to make sure

2036
01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 4: that he uses his power and his platform.

2037
01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:12,000
Speaker 2: Response response, how well do you know Aaron Rodgers? Did

2038
01:35:12,000 --> 01:35:13,759
Speaker 2: you get to know when you were a player as well?

2039
01:35:14,160 --> 01:35:17,320
Speaker 3: No, I mean, like wave, he's way after me.

2040
01:35:18,400 --> 01:35:20,720
Speaker 4: Look, I only know about him through the people that

2041
01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:24,200
Speaker 4: have encountered him up there, and all will talk about

2042
01:35:24,280 --> 01:35:26,519
Speaker 4: him being smart and all that, and in their different

2043
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:28,320
Speaker 4: appeiance because some people I know that love him other

2044
01:35:28,360 --> 01:35:33,439
Speaker 4: people that don't like him a ton and he's found

2045
01:35:33,439 --> 01:35:36,639
Speaker 4: a way to be a really good player. And all

2046
01:35:36,640 --> 01:35:38,559
Speaker 4: I can judge is the on field stuff, the off

2047
01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:42,240
Speaker 4: field stuff to these engaged in Yeah, that's above my

2048
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:42,919
Speaker 4: pay grade.

2049
01:35:43,160 --> 01:35:44,840
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I don't wish him any harm. I

2050
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:46,640
Speaker 2: think he's a bit of a weirdo, but it's a

2051
01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:48,840
Speaker 2: great football player. But I will tell you as much

2052
01:35:48,880 --> 01:35:50,759
Speaker 2: as far as like what he brings to the table

2053
01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:53,000
Speaker 2: in this day and age, in this political arena. And

2054
01:35:53,040 --> 01:35:55,240
Speaker 2: I'll climate right now, it's not about how much you

2055
01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:57,880
Speaker 2: know and how much you can change things. It's all

2056
01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:00,679
Speaker 2: about name recognition that equal votes to the all about

2057
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:02,360
Speaker 2: Maybe it's always been that way, but I will tell

2058
01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,200
Speaker 2: you this much. If Taylor Swift ran, she would win

2059
01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 2: because she has that name recognition and she fills arenas

2060
01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:12,040
Speaker 2: and stadia and things like that. I think Taylor Swift,

2061
01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:14,719
Speaker 2: as she would add in the ticket, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

2062
01:36:14,960 --> 01:36:17,519
Speaker 2: Screwed up because she should have got Taylor Swift on

2063
01:36:17,600 --> 01:36:19,679
Speaker 2: his ticket and he would have won with her. There's

2064
01:36:19,680 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 2: no doubt about that.

2065
01:36:20,560 --> 01:36:23,719
Speaker 3: Really, he might have been able to get it done.

2066
01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:24,240
Speaker 3: Who knows.

2067
01:36:24,520 --> 01:36:27,639
Speaker 4: We'll see she the Swift. He's a definitely part popular

2068
01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:29,080
Speaker 4: and very powerful.

2069
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:31,200
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. All right. He's Bucket Brooks. Get

2090
01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:34,559
Speaker 2: Twitter or x whatever the hell you want to call it.

2091
01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:39,240
Speaker 2: Vince Langman says, here we go, liberal snowflake Andy Furman

2092
01:37:39,479 --> 01:37:42,320
Speaker 2: repeating a lie. A CNN reporter comes out with this

2093
01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:45,759
Speaker 2: eleven year old conversation two days after Robert Kennedy Junior

2094
01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:48,720
Speaker 2: announced Rogers is in the running for VP, and you

2095
01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:51,760
Speaker 2: fall Ford hook Line and Sinker Rogers already said this

2096
01:37:51,880 --> 01:37:54,280
Speaker 2: never happened, but of course you didn't say that. I

2097
01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:57,000
Speaker 2: hope he sues CNN and you. Let me just repeat this,

2098
01:37:57,320 --> 01:38:01,080
Speaker 2: mister Langman guard gave you two years. So listen, okay, listen,

2099
01:38:01,200 --> 01:38:03,919
Speaker 2: I'm talking about Pamela Brown. A report of the CNN

2100
01:38:04,320 --> 01:38:08,000
Speaker 2: said that basically Aaron Rodgers told her at the Kentucky

2101
01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:11,280
Speaker 2: Derby back in twenty thirteen that Sandy Hook Elementary School

2102
01:38:11,479 --> 01:38:14,240
Speaker 2: there was actually a government inside job and the media

2103
01:38:14,360 --> 01:38:16,960
Speaker 2: was intentionally ignoring it. This is from Aaron Rodgers. I'm

2104
01:38:17,000 --> 01:38:21,040
Speaker 2: just repeating what CNN has released, Okay. Also, CNN spoke

2105
01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:24,160
Speaker 2: to another person with a similar story, and this person

2106
01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:27,920
Speaker 2: several years ago said that Aaron Rodgers claimed, quote, Sandy

2107
01:38:27,960 --> 01:38:33,639
Speaker 2: Hook never happened. All those children never existed. They were actors, okay.

2108
01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:36,599
Speaker 2: And when I asked about the grieving parents, the source

2109
01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:40,519
Speaker 2: from CNN recalled that Rodgers said, quote, they're all making

2110
01:38:40,560 --> 01:38:44,320
Speaker 2: it up. They're all actors. This came from Aaron Rodgers,

2111
01:38:44,560 --> 01:38:47,519
Speaker 2: not from me, not from anybody else. I don't care

2112
01:38:47,640 --> 01:38:51,680
Speaker 2: what Aaron Rodgers does, says lives or we'll run for politics,

2113
01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:53,920
Speaker 2: whatever he wants to do. It's fine with me. I'm

2114
01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:58,840
Speaker 2: just repeating facts. Facts, mister Langman, these are facts. All right,

2115
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:01,439
Speaker 2: we move on. I'm sorry, sorry, mean to get upset,

2116
01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:04,040
Speaker 2: but I'm fair. I'm fair because he said that on

2117
01:39:04,080 --> 01:39:06,479
Speaker 2: Twitter to me in a message, and we move on.

2118
01:39:06,680 --> 01:39:10,120
Speaker 2: All right? Are we ready? I'm sorry. Now let's get

2119
01:39:10,120 --> 01:39:11,960
Speaker 2: the Kirk Cousins here for a second. I said life

2120
01:39:11,960 --> 01:39:14,840
Speaker 2: bigins at thirty six becaues he's no longer in Minnesota.

2121
01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:18,000
Speaker 2: He's at Atlanta right now, and obviously the Minnesota Vikings

2122
01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:22,320
Speaker 2: have to maybe adjust, get on a new course. New quarterback,

2123
01:39:22,400 --> 01:39:24,360
Speaker 2: who's going to be the quarterback of the future, and

2124
01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:26,639
Speaker 2: how is it going to affect this superstar wide receiver

2125
01:39:27,080 --> 01:39:31,920
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson. What's going to happen to Justin Jefferson right now?

2126
01:39:31,920 --> 01:39:34,000
Speaker 3: I don't think it changes anything.

2127
01:39:34,120 --> 01:39:36,320
Speaker 4: I think the new quarterback will come in knowing that

2128
01:39:36,720 --> 01:39:39,040
Speaker 4: Justin Jefferson is the number one receiver the balls need

2129
01:39:39,080 --> 01:39:41,640
Speaker 4: to hit in this direction. Kevin O'Connor will continue to

2130
01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:45,719
Speaker 4: draw up plays for Justin Jefferson to get the look,

2131
01:39:45,760 --> 01:39:47,960
Speaker 4: and then the final thing, the Minnesota Vikings will break

2132
01:39:48,040 --> 01:39:50,960
Speaker 4: him off and pay him handsomely. He'll be well over

2133
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:53,599
Speaker 4: thirty million dollars, He'll be the number more paid wide

2134
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:56,960
Speaker 4: receiver in the game, and everyone will be chasing his number.

2135
01:39:57,080 --> 01:39:59,160
Speaker 4: Following that, it just takes a while to get these

2136
01:39:59,160 --> 01:40:00,200
Speaker 4: deals done.

2137
01:40:00,439 --> 01:40:03,120
Speaker 2: Okay, here's my deal. I want to do about the legacy.

2138
01:40:03,120 --> 01:40:05,800
Speaker 2: It somewhat of a legacy of Kirk Cousins. I think

2139
01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:08,559
Speaker 2: that he's much maligned because he hasn't done much in

2140
01:40:08,600 --> 01:40:10,519
Speaker 2: the playoffs of at all. But let's take a look

2141
01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:14,439
Speaker 2: at this. On his production, thirty nine quarterback attempted a

2142
01:40:14,520 --> 01:40:18,040
Speaker 2: thousand passes or more from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty three,

2143
01:40:18,720 --> 01:40:21,760
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins had more passing yards than all of them

2144
01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:27,080
Speaker 2: but three Patrick Mahomes, Jared Goff, and Derek Carr. Derek

2145
01:40:27,160 --> 01:40:31,040
Speaker 2: Carr Okay, and then Kirk Cousins had more passing touchdowns

2146
01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:34,400
Speaker 2: than all but two of them, Patrick Mahomes and Russell Wilson.

2147
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:38,200
Speaker 2: His completion percentage ranked third behind Drew Brees and Joe Burrow.

2148
01:40:38,600 --> 01:40:43,080
Speaker 2: His touchdown to interception ratio was fifth behind Aaron Rodgers,

2149
01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:46,960
Speaker 2: Drew Brees, Patrick Mahomes, and Russell Wilson, and his passer

2150
01:40:47,080 --> 01:40:50,120
Speaker 2: rating ranked fifth behind those same four. I look at

2151
01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:53,360
Speaker 2: these stats and scratch my head and say, Minnesota, you're

2152
01:40:53,400 --> 01:40:56,280
Speaker 2: screwed up. You're screwed up by letting this guy go.

2153
01:40:56,479 --> 01:40:58,800
Speaker 2: And look, you made all the great points early on Bucky.

2154
01:40:58,840 --> 01:41:00,800
Speaker 2: He said that what is he doing on the postseason

2155
01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:03,719
Speaker 2: and certainly hasn't done much with the team at all. Really,

2156
01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:05,880
Speaker 2: And two years ago when they did make the playoffs,

2157
01:41:05,960 --> 01:41:08,280
Speaker 2: they lost to the Giants in the first round. But still,

2158
01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:10,519
Speaker 2: in all I think they were a better team with

2159
01:41:10,640 --> 01:41:14,160
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins than now without him.

2160
01:41:14,640 --> 01:41:16,599
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, look, I think they are a better

2161
01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:19,200
Speaker 4: team with Kirk Cousins, but I think there's a silling

2162
01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:22,920
Speaker 4: on how good they could be. Despite all the gaudy

2163
01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:27,080
Speaker 4: knowers that you cited, he still has a tough time.

2164
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:30,080
Speaker 3: Understanding how to.

2165
01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:33,200
Speaker 4: Take his game up a notch in prime time, critical moments.

2166
01:41:33,240 --> 01:41:35,639
Speaker 4: He has a tendency to not pay attention to where

2167
01:41:35,680 --> 01:41:39,160
Speaker 4: the sticks are or what is available to him and

2168
01:41:39,240 --> 01:41:42,160
Speaker 4: has cost him. He is a good player, not a

2169
01:41:42,200 --> 01:41:44,320
Speaker 4: great player. But the problem is when you're paying him

2170
01:41:44,320 --> 01:41:47,920
Speaker 4: great player money, there's an expectation that comes with that.

2171
01:41:48,400 --> 01:41:52,559
Speaker 4: For the Vikings, they didn't want to play great money

2172
01:41:52,680 --> 01:41:54,479
Speaker 4: for a player that is only going to top out

2173
01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:54,960
Speaker 4: it being a.

2174
01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:58,719
Speaker 2: Good player Okay. My question is this, you're a general manager,

2175
01:41:58,720 --> 01:42:02,080
Speaker 2: you're a personal guy. You have to get Dak Prescott

2176
01:42:02,120 --> 01:42:04,240
Speaker 2: or Kirk Cousins. I know who I'm taking. I'm taking

2177
01:42:04,320 --> 01:42:06,960
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins. The problem with Dak Prescott is when you

2178
01:42:07,040 --> 01:42:09,200
Speaker 2: play for the team with the star, you're gonna get

2179
01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:12,479
Speaker 2: all the pluses and all the minuses. Everything falls on you.

2180
01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:15,559
Speaker 2: You play with Minnesota, not many people care. That's the

2181
01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:17,920
Speaker 2: only reason. When you play in Dallas, everything is on

2182
01:42:18,000 --> 01:42:20,120
Speaker 2: the spotlights on you in Dallas. Let's take a look

2183
01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:22,360
Speaker 2: at the wins and losses. In six years, Cousins was

2184
01:42:22,360 --> 01:42:25,599
Speaker 2: fifty to thirty seven, a fifty seven point four winning

2185
01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:29,400
Speaker 2: percentage that's ranked sixteenth behind Philip Rivers and ahead of

2186
01:42:29,479 --> 01:42:32,760
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow. Cousins only made the playoffs twice in twenty

2187
01:42:32,840 --> 01:42:35,840
Speaker 2: nineteen and twenty twenty two, and won once, a twenty

2188
01:42:35,920 --> 01:42:38,559
Speaker 2: nineteen wildcard game against the Saints. But still, in all

2189
01:42:38,600 --> 01:42:40,520
Speaker 2: I think he's a pretty darn good quarterback.

2190
01:42:42,120 --> 01:42:44,439
Speaker 4: I mean, it depends on what the metrics are. If

2191
01:42:44,439 --> 01:42:48,120
Speaker 4: you judge by the number of passing yards he is, Yeah,

2192
01:42:48,160 --> 01:42:50,559
Speaker 4: he has all that in space. But you talked about

2193
01:42:50,560 --> 01:42:52,280
Speaker 4: a guy being there eight years but he's only made

2194
01:42:52,280 --> 01:42:54,759
Speaker 4: it to the playoffs twice and only one of those

2195
01:42:54,880 --> 01:42:57,640
Speaker 4: finished up with a playoff win. I mean, that's a

2196
01:42:57,640 --> 01:42:59,280
Speaker 4: lot of money you're paying out for a guy who

2197
01:42:59,280 --> 01:43:01,200
Speaker 4: has improved the He can take your team to the

2198
01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:03,320
Speaker 4: next level, he can get you to the tournament, but

2199
01:43:03,320 --> 01:43:06,800
Speaker 4: he can't win the tournament. I mean, that's just kind

2200
01:43:06,800 --> 01:43:10,479
Speaker 4: of where you're at. And I mean, I don't know,

2201
01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:13,000
Speaker 4: Like I think you can see a little pullback on

2202
01:43:13,120 --> 01:43:15,719
Speaker 4: the amount of teams that give like this mega mega

2203
01:43:15,800 --> 01:43:17,360
Speaker 4: mega money to quarterback.

2204
01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:19,240
Speaker 2: And that's the key. You hit it right on the head.

2205
01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:22,519
Speaker 2: You know, Minnesota let him go, not the cost of

2206
01:43:22,560 --> 01:43:25,439
Speaker 2: his skill set. They let him go because three factors.

2207
01:43:25,520 --> 01:43:28,639
Speaker 2: Number one coming off the ACL, Number two perhaps his age,

2208
01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:31,360
Speaker 2: and number three the biggest reason of all obviously was

2209
01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:33,640
Speaker 2: the money, all right, and that was the deal. And

2210
01:43:33,760 --> 01:43:35,920
Speaker 2: obviously I don't think they thought there'd be a lot

2211
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:40,479
Speaker 2: of suitors for him. Atlanta came in there, and then

2212
01:43:40,520 --> 01:43:43,320
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, Minnesota challenge Atlanta once the legal

2213
01:43:43,360 --> 01:43:45,960
Speaker 2: tampering period began. That's what happened right there. But the

2214
01:43:45,960 --> 01:43:49,280
Speaker 2: fact that Minnesota challenge Atlanta tells me at least that

2215
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:51,040
Speaker 2: they didn't want it to go. They want them to

2216
01:43:51,040 --> 01:43:51,920
Speaker 2: try to keep him there.

2217
01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:53,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, they wanted to.

2218
01:43:53,760 --> 01:43:55,439
Speaker 4: I mean obviously you want to try and keep him there,

2219
01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:59,040
Speaker 4: but you want him on your number. You want to

2220
01:43:59,040 --> 01:44:01,439
Speaker 4: pay him kind of you sloted to pay the position.

2221
01:44:04,240 --> 01:44:05,800
Speaker 4: You know, you just don't want to overpay for him.

2222
01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:07,760
Speaker 4: And I think that's always the thing. You don't want

2223
01:44:07,800 --> 01:44:10,679
Speaker 4: to overpay for good. You don't mind overpaying for great.

2224
01:44:10,680 --> 01:44:12,240
Speaker 4: You don't want to overpay for good.

2225
01:44:12,520 --> 01:44:14,439
Speaker 2: Well, you know what you overpay for good. Just take

2226
01:44:14,479 --> 01:44:17,760
Speaker 2: a look at the Danny Dimes over there and the

2227
01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:22,160
Speaker 2: Giants forty seven mili. I think they overpaid him. I mean, look,

2228
01:44:22,240 --> 01:44:24,679
Speaker 2: that happens all the time. You know, people get overpaid

2229
01:44:24,680 --> 01:44:26,800
Speaker 2: all the time. And I think that sometimes you have

2230
01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:29,519
Speaker 2: to overpay to win. Would you rather have that or

2231
01:44:29,560 --> 01:44:32,040
Speaker 2: you rather have Sam Donald? And I really do you

2232
01:44:32,080 --> 01:44:33,800
Speaker 2: want to see? Think Sam Donald's going to be under

2233
01:44:33,800 --> 01:44:40,760
Speaker 2: center and opening day for Minnesota. I don't think he will.

2234
01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:40,439
Speaker 4: No, I mean i'd look, I think Sam Donald has

2235
01:44:40,439 --> 01:44:42,800
Speaker 4: a great chance to play. He reunites with one of

2236
01:44:42,840 --> 01:44:46,200
Speaker 4: his former teammates and Josh McCown. Kevin O'Connell has raved

2237
01:44:46,240 --> 01:44:51,160
Speaker 4: about his talent. Sam Donald entered a league a little

2238
01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:53,920
Speaker 4: different than most guys, but he may get to the

2239
01:44:53,960 --> 01:44:58,840
Speaker 4: same I mean, he may get to the same destination.

2240
01:44:59,160 --> 01:45:01,640
Speaker 4: The thing that I will say about all of this

2241
01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:03,599
Speaker 4: when it comes to the quarterback hero. So you talked

2242
01:45:03,640 --> 01:45:05,960
Speaker 4: about Dak Prescott, you talk about Kirk Cousins or whatever.

2243
01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:08,919
Speaker 4: It is really expensive to get a high end quarterback

2244
01:45:08,920 --> 01:45:11,080
Speaker 4: and it's really difficult to find one in the draft.

2245
01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 4: So if you have one, you kind of have a

2246
01:45:13,320 --> 01:45:15,639
Speaker 4: tendency to hold on to it until you can find better.

2247
01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:20,680
Speaker 4: This might be the situation like for more teams as

2248
01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:22,720
Speaker 4: they have to deal with like those mid level quarterbacks.

2249
01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:25,040
Speaker 2: You what you're saying, he's Bucket Brooks. I'm Ay Freman.

2250
01:45:25,120 --> 01:45:27,880
Speaker 2: We are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio. It's

2251
01:45:27,880 --> 01:45:31,040
Speaker 2: time for a change. That's next and it's coming up

2252
01:45:31,040 --> 01:45:33,040
Speaker 2: the next Life on the Tirack dot Com studios.

2253
01:45:33,040 --> 01:45:37,120
Speaker 8: But first, Kevin Wyatt, what all your sports selection Sunday

2254
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:39,920
Speaker 8: is here? And if you're top Frank Houston, you were

2255
01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:42,479
Speaker 8: going into Saturday expecting to be the number one team

2256
01:45:42,479 --> 01:45:46,479
Speaker 8: in the whole tournament. But Iowa State really putting a

2257
01:45:46,560 --> 01:45:49,480
Speaker 8: damper on those plans. They really took it to the Cougars,

2258
01:45:49,520 --> 01:45:52,840
Speaker 8: winning it sixty nine to forty one, holding Houston.

2259
01:45:52,560 --> 01:45:54,879
Speaker 5: To just twenty seven percent shooting.

2260
01:45:54,960 --> 01:45:59,240
Speaker 8: So Houston gonna wait for the tournament field reveal to

2261
01:45:59,240 --> 01:46:02,000
Speaker 8: see if they'll eaving number one seed at all in

2262
01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:05,880
Speaker 8: Iowa State certainly making a case for a one seed

2263
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:08,080
Speaker 8: or at the very least a two seed, and number

2264
01:46:08,120 --> 01:46:12,200
Speaker 8: two Connecticut taking advantage as they win against Marquette.

2265
01:46:11,760 --> 01:46:13,160
Speaker 2: Seventy three fifty seven.

2266
01:46:13,200 --> 01:46:16,680
Speaker 8: The Huskies expecting to be the top overall seed in

2267
01:46:16,760 --> 01:46:18,400
Speaker 8: the tournament and ceased it.

2268
01:46:18,439 --> 01:46:19,439
Speaker 2: How about the wolf Pack.

2269
01:46:19,560 --> 01:46:23,439
Speaker 8: They went five days and won five games in each

2270
01:46:23,479 --> 01:46:25,800
Speaker 8: of those ort five days. Over the course of those

2271
01:46:25,840 --> 01:46:28,639
Speaker 8: five days to win the ACC Championship. They beat number

2272
01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:31,439
Speaker 8: four North Carolina eighty four to seventy six to punch

2273
01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:35,120
Speaker 8: their ticket into the Big Dance PAC twelve the last

2274
01:46:35,240 --> 01:46:39,160
Speaker 8: ever PAC twelve Tournament. Oregon over Colorado seventy five to

2275
01:46:39,320 --> 01:46:42,000
Speaker 8: sixty eight. In the Mountain West, It's New Mexico over

2276
01:46:42,040 --> 01:46:45,080
Speaker 8: San Diego State sixty eight to sixty one. The MAC

2277
01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:50,519
Speaker 8: Championship Akron snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. Kent

2278
01:46:50,640 --> 01:46:53,200
Speaker 8: State took the lead by one with just a few

2279
01:46:53,240 --> 01:46:56,719
Speaker 8: seconds ago and then foul Akron in the back court,

2280
01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:58,320
Speaker 8: so they just had to make a couple of free

2281
01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:00,240
Speaker 8: throws to win the game, and that's exactly what they did,

2282
01:47:00,280 --> 01:47:03,360
Speaker 8: sixty two to sixty one, Grambling going to the NCAA

2283
01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:05,920
Speaker 8: Tournament for the first time. They win the SWACK Championship

2284
01:47:06,120 --> 01:47:08,400
Speaker 8: over Texas Southern seventy five sixty six.

2285
01:47:08,479 --> 01:47:10,799
Speaker 2: Long Beach State. Dan Munson had been.

2286
01:47:10,680 --> 01:47:13,840
Speaker 8: Fired earlier this week and was allowed to coach the

2287
01:47:13,880 --> 01:47:16,280
Speaker 8: remainder of the season, and it's gonna get extended just

2288
01:47:16,320 --> 01:47:19,200
Speaker 8: a little bit longer as he guides them to a

2289
01:47:19,240 --> 01:47:22,160
Speaker 8: seventy four to seventy win against UC Davis. Long Beach

2290
01:47:22,200 --> 01:47:25,480
Speaker 8: State wins the Big West Championship and will go dancing

2291
01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:29,439
Speaker 8: NBA Warriors over the Lakers one eight one twenty one.

2292
01:47:29,479 --> 01:47:32,679
Speaker 8: Anthony Davis had to leave after the first Quartery got

2293
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:34,280
Speaker 8: hit in the eye and it looked really bad. He

2294
01:47:34,320 --> 01:47:37,600
Speaker 8: did not return. But the story of the game was

2295
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:40,000
Speaker 8: the last two minutes. The game had great flow back

2296
01:47:40,040 --> 01:47:43,360
Speaker 8: and forth, fair and was a thrilling game up until

2297
01:47:43,360 --> 01:47:45,120
Speaker 8: the last two minutes, and that's when a bunch of

2298
01:47:45,200 --> 01:47:49,040
Speaker 8: challenges and replay reviews happened and the shot clock wouldn't

2299
01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:51,160
Speaker 8: even work at times, so the game just ground to

2300
01:47:51,240 --> 01:47:53,519
Speaker 8: a halt and it got really frustrating. The fans even

2301
01:47:53,560 --> 01:47:56,640
Speaker 8: were booing the officials after a couple of starts of

2302
01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:59,040
Speaker 8: play were stopped by the show clock not working. And

2303
01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:02,519
Speaker 8: it's a slow mess all around. In the league going

2304
01:48:02,520 --> 01:48:06,200
Speaker 8: to probably evaluate it's a replay policy going forward. But

2305
01:48:06,240 --> 01:48:09,479
Speaker 8: the Warriors do end up winning it thunder over the

2306
01:48:09,520 --> 01:48:12,680
Speaker 8: Memphis Grizzlies twent eighteen, one to twelve. Timberwolves take down

2307
01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:15,680
Speaker 8: the Jazz one nineteen to one hundred. In the NFL,

2308
01:48:15,880 --> 01:48:18,600
Speaker 8: Justin Field's getting traded by the Chicago Bears to the

2309
01:48:18,640 --> 01:48:23,559
Speaker 8: Steelers in exchange for a twenty twenty five six round pick.

2310
01:48:23,600 --> 01:48:26,599
Speaker 8: And in golf, the Players Championship, they call it golf's

2311
01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:30,320
Speaker 8: fifth Major, and Xander Chowflay ahead of the leaderboard. He's

2312
01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:33,719
Speaker 8: one stroke ahead of Wyndham Clark. Back to you guys,

2313
01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:34,280
Speaker 8: all right.

2314
01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:36,200
Speaker 2: KeV, thanks so much. Gay. If it's not broke, I

2315
01:48:36,280 --> 01:48:39,240
Speaker 2: fix it. That's coming right up. He is Bucky Brooks.

2316
01:48:39,280 --> 01:48:41,599
Speaker 2: I'm Ady Fernhan. By the way, this is Fox Sports

2317
01:48:41,640 --> 01:48:44,360
Speaker 2: Sunday and Fox Sports Radio. And it's just like in basketball,

2318
01:48:44,640 --> 01:48:47,200
Speaker 2: a successful game plan starts with the right, players. The

2319
01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:50,479
Speaker 2: team at Tractor Supply brings hustle and heart, and that's

2320
01:48:50,520 --> 01:48:53,679
Speaker 2: what really sitts them apart. So lace up your sneakers

2321
01:48:53,680 --> 01:48:55,639
Speaker 2: and make the winning play by heading to your local

2322
01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:58,920
Speaker 2: Tractor supply store today. All Right, we've got the blame

2323
01:48:59,040 --> 01:49:01,280
Speaker 2: game coming up about six to seven minutes from now.

2324
01:49:01,560 --> 01:49:05,000
Speaker 2: But twenty twenty four NFL rules changes, they were proposed

2325
01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:07,719
Speaker 2: by various teams in the league. Released I guess earlier

2326
01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:11,000
Speaker 2: this week all rule by law and resolution proposals that

2327
01:49:11,040 --> 01:49:14,479
Speaker 2: have been submitted by teams in advance for their annual meetings,

2328
01:49:14,479 --> 01:49:17,439
Speaker 2: And they'll be later this month in Orlando, Florida, And

2329
01:49:17,479 --> 01:49:19,719
Speaker 2: maybe Bucket Brooks, you could explain them to me, because

2330
01:49:19,760 --> 01:49:21,120
Speaker 2: I'm not too certain what they all mean.

2331
01:49:21,160 --> 01:49:21,559
Speaker 3: All right.

2332
01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:24,519
Speaker 2: The most notable one, I guess was a proposal came

2333
01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:27,559
Speaker 2: from the Philadelphia Eagles. They have champion an on side

2334
01:49:27,640 --> 01:49:31,000
Speaker 2: kick alternative that would permit a team to maintain possession

2335
01:49:31,400 --> 01:49:34,360
Speaker 2: after a score if it converts a fourth and twenty

2336
01:49:34,400 --> 01:49:37,360
Speaker 2: offensive play from its own twenty yard line. All right,

2337
01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:39,559
Speaker 2: figure that out for me? Help me out here, will

2338
01:49:39,560 --> 01:49:42,400
Speaker 2: you please this rule change?

2339
01:49:43,760 --> 01:49:44,679
Speaker 3: You'll hep you out?

2340
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:48,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, traditional onside kicks because the traditional onside kicks they

2341
01:49:48,880 --> 01:49:51,880
Speaker 2: have grown far more difficult to recover over time, so

2342
01:49:51,920 --> 01:49:53,519
Speaker 2: they want to tighten up the rules I guess, and

2343
01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:56,559
Speaker 2: on side kicks back in twenty twenty three, teams recovered

2344
01:49:56,600 --> 01:49:59,120
Speaker 2: only two or forty one on side kicks. I don't

2345
01:49:59,120 --> 01:50:01,760
Speaker 2: get it is that big a deal. I don't know

2346
01:50:01,800 --> 01:50:02,680
Speaker 2: why would they do that?

2347
01:50:04,800 --> 01:50:07,920
Speaker 4: I would say, like, the reason why is they wanted

2348
01:50:07,920 --> 01:50:10,200
Speaker 4: to take the most violent collision out of the game,

2349
01:50:10,560 --> 01:50:14,960
Speaker 4: and so by incentivizing teams to take the touch back,

2350
01:50:15,280 --> 01:50:17,600
Speaker 4: it put the ball down into twenty five. Will the

2351
01:50:17,600 --> 01:50:20,679
Speaker 4: odds go up if you scoring points when you start

2352
01:50:20,760 --> 01:50:25,280
Speaker 4: outside the twenty So offensive coaches were electing, hey, man,

2353
01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:26,760
Speaker 4: just just just take the fair kitch.

2354
01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:27,719
Speaker 3: We will take it right here.

2355
01:50:28,400 --> 01:50:31,360
Speaker 4: Defensive coaches were saying, yeah, well, we need to have

2356
01:50:31,479 --> 01:50:34,439
Speaker 4: something in place where we can finish off games. We

2357
01:50:34,479 --> 01:50:36,960
Speaker 4: can do it the right way, and we want to

2358
01:50:37,000 --> 01:50:39,920
Speaker 4: have the opportunity to also kick some onside kicks. How

2359
01:50:39,960 --> 01:50:41,639
Speaker 4: do we go about doing it? So they're still trying

2360
01:50:41,680 --> 01:50:44,840
Speaker 4: to scrimmage through some of those things. But it's weird

2361
01:50:45,120 --> 01:50:48,400
Speaker 4: seeing end of game desperations and knowing that you know

2362
01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:50,880
Speaker 4: the onsete kick and the Hail Mary have no chance

2363
01:50:50,880 --> 01:50:52,120
Speaker 4: of showing up right.

2364
01:50:52,240 --> 01:50:52,599
Speaker 3: Okay.

2365
01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:55,439
Speaker 2: The Detroit Lions, Okay, they submitted a rule change that

2366
01:50:55,479 --> 01:50:58,519
Speaker 2: would allow coaches to get a third challenge if one

2367
01:50:58,560 --> 01:51:02,000
Speaker 2: of the first two challenges successful rather than if both are.

2368
01:51:02,120 --> 01:51:04,880
Speaker 2: That's not bad. That sounds fair to me. I like that.

2369
01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:06,720
Speaker 2: What are the chances that I going through? What do

2370
01:51:06,760 --> 01:51:10,639
Speaker 2: you think, repeater?

2371
01:51:10,720 --> 01:51:12,080
Speaker 3: You could out on my repeater.

2372
01:51:12,120 --> 01:51:14,640
Speaker 2: Okay, the Detroit Lions. They submit a rule change that

2373
01:51:14,680 --> 01:51:18,639
Speaker 2: would allow coaches to get a third challenge if one

2374
01:51:18,680 --> 01:51:22,240
Speaker 2: of their first two challenges are successful rather than if

2375
01:51:22,280 --> 01:51:23,360
Speaker 2: both are successful.

2376
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:27,400
Speaker 4: I mean, look, I think that's a good deal because

2377
01:51:27,400 --> 01:51:30,920
Speaker 4: if you've been rewarded by successfully challenging and play, you

2378
01:51:30,960 --> 01:51:34,280
Speaker 4: should look, you should enhance their timeouts. You shouldn't take

2379
01:51:34,320 --> 01:51:36,439
Speaker 4: that away. So I actually am all in favor of that.

2380
01:51:36,880 --> 01:51:39,479
Speaker 2: Me too, I think that's a good one. Okay. Buffalo Bills.

2381
01:51:39,760 --> 01:51:43,120
Speaker 2: They want the NFL to allow practice squad quarterbacks to

2382
01:51:43,160 --> 01:51:46,920
Speaker 2: be eligible to serve as the emergency third quarterback on

2383
01:51:47,040 --> 01:51:50,760
Speaker 2: game days. The current rule requires that the third quarterback

2384
01:51:50,840 --> 01:51:52,880
Speaker 2: be part of the fifty three man roster. That's a

2385
01:51:52,880 --> 01:51:55,280
Speaker 2: pretty good rule too, The way quarterbacks are getting banged up.

2386
01:51:55,320 --> 01:52:00,679
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, quarterbacks are getting banged and so having

2387
01:52:00,720 --> 01:52:03,760
Speaker 4: that emergency quarterback is significant. It allows you to dress

2388
01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:05,960
Speaker 4: him and it allows you to have them ready to be

2389
01:52:06,040 --> 01:52:09,080
Speaker 4: very similar to the Kenny Pickott situation where he allegedly

2390
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:11,920
Speaker 4: refused to dress out. Now he has no choice. He's

2391
01:52:11,920 --> 01:52:13,680
Speaker 4: the third quarterback. You dress him out. If you get

2392
01:52:13,680 --> 01:52:15,320
Speaker 4: to the point where you need him you're in trouble.

2393
01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:19,200
Speaker 4: But he's there just in case Jesse Case needs someone

2394
01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:19,840
Speaker 4: to take the snap.

2395
01:52:20,160 --> 01:52:22,360
Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about the Pittsburgh Steels with they proposal

2396
01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:24,000
Speaker 2: right now. This is a pretty good one because it's

2397
01:52:24,000 --> 01:52:27,000
Speaker 2: really down the playoff stretch. They want to move the

2398
01:52:27,040 --> 01:52:30,080
Speaker 2: trade deadline back a week to after week nine games.

2399
01:52:30,280 --> 01:52:33,600
Speaker 2: In a separate proposal, six other teams suggested moving up

2400
01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:36,519
Speaker 2: back until after week ten, which is great because at

2401
01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:38,680
Speaker 2: that point in time, guys are really banged up. You

2402
01:52:38,760 --> 01:52:41,280
Speaker 2: may need to get a player in a trade and

2403
01:52:41,320 --> 01:52:43,640
Speaker 2: maybe make up stretch run for the playoffs. I like

2404
01:52:43,720 --> 01:52:46,439
Speaker 2: that after week ten, make the trade deadline back then,

2405
01:52:46,640 --> 01:52:48,680
Speaker 2: be really exciting. I think it's a good rule. I

2406
01:52:48,720 --> 01:52:49,160
Speaker 2: really do.

2407
01:52:50,040 --> 01:52:52,200
Speaker 4: You had to give teams an opportunity to punt on

2408
01:52:52,280 --> 01:52:55,880
Speaker 4: their players entering the last year of the deal. At

2409
01:52:55,920 --> 01:52:58,800
Speaker 4: the end, I mean, you start setting up places for

2410
01:52:59,280 --> 01:53:02,360
Speaker 4: new players to go. Oh and those things the trade

2411
01:53:02,880 --> 01:53:06,880
Speaker 4: will allow you to fortify their run that you can

2412
01:53:06,920 --> 01:53:10,280
Speaker 4: make in the postseason. So with only six games left

2413
01:53:10,280 --> 01:53:12,280
Speaker 4: for seven games left, depending on when they put it in,

2414
01:53:12,600 --> 01:53:15,200
Speaker 4: it allows you to get a new player not only acclimated,

2415
01:53:15,240 --> 01:53:17,760
Speaker 4: but maybe that new player can help you finish the

2416
01:53:17,840 --> 01:53:20,080
Speaker 4: games off that enable you to get into the postseason.

2417
01:53:20,200 --> 01:53:21,840
Speaker 3: I dig it. I do too.

2418
01:53:22,200 --> 01:53:25,120
Speaker 2: Here's a strange one. The Philadelphia Eagles. They want to

2419
01:53:25,120 --> 01:53:28,920
Speaker 2: see game clocks display tenths of a second in the

2420
01:53:28,960 --> 01:53:31,080
Speaker 2: final minute of each half. Now, I think they have

2421
01:53:31,160 --> 01:53:33,040
Speaker 2: tents of a second on the NBA clock and in

2422
01:53:33,040 --> 01:53:36,240
Speaker 2: college basketball too, but tense of a second in the NFL.

2423
01:53:36,880 --> 01:53:38,439
Speaker 2: I don't know if it makes not much of a difference.

2424
01:53:38,439 --> 01:53:42,599
Speaker 4: What do you think, Yeah, that's the end of the second.

2425
01:53:42,600 --> 01:53:44,080
Speaker 4: I mean, just to be able to see how much

2426
01:53:44,120 --> 01:53:46,280
Speaker 4: time you really have. Like, it's just a visual thing

2427
01:53:46,360 --> 01:53:48,599
Speaker 4: more so than anything. It just is it a long

2428
01:53:48,680 --> 01:53:49,759
Speaker 4: second or a short second?

2429
01:53:49,840 --> 01:53:51,320
Speaker 3: Those things? Maybe it matters.

2430
01:53:51,840 --> 01:53:55,320
Speaker 4: I can't say that it makes a significant impact, but

2431
01:53:56,479 --> 01:53:57,840
Speaker 4: some of the players are claiming for it.

2432
01:53:57,880 --> 01:53:58,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, why not.

2433
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:02,479
Speaker 2: Okay, and at least the Indianapolis Cold State proposed allowing

2434
01:54:02,520 --> 01:54:06,439
Speaker 2: coaches to challenge any foul that has been called on

2435
01:54:06,479 --> 01:54:09,960
Speaker 2: the field, in addition to the existing menu of plays

2436
01:54:09,960 --> 01:54:13,439
Speaker 2: they are eligible to challenge. The NFL has traditionally stayed

2437
01:54:13,439 --> 01:54:16,719
Speaker 2: away from the challenging subjective decisions, and there has only

2438
01:54:16,760 --> 01:54:20,200
Speaker 2: been one season in its history when any foul, let

2439
01:54:20,240 --> 01:54:22,839
Speaker 2: alone all of them, was part of a replay review.

2440
01:54:23,760 --> 01:54:27,040
Speaker 2: Interesting thing on the Colt's proposal over there, to challenge

2441
01:54:27,080 --> 01:54:29,080
Speaker 2: any foul that has been called on the field. I

2442
01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:31,679
Speaker 2: kind of like that, to challenge any foul on the field.

2443
01:54:31,760 --> 01:54:32,360
Speaker 2: What do you think?

2444
01:54:32,680 --> 01:54:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, dude.

2445
01:54:33,640 --> 01:54:34,680
Speaker 4: The only thing you want to do is you want

2446
01:54:34,720 --> 01:54:37,040
Speaker 4: to make sure game play does not continue to slow down.

2447
01:54:37,520 --> 01:54:39,200
Speaker 4: All right. The league has done a really good job

2448
01:54:39,240 --> 01:54:41,040
Speaker 4: trying to fit in a three and a half hour window.

2449
01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:44,160
Speaker 4: If you make this decision, you got to roll with

2450
01:54:44,200 --> 01:54:45,680
Speaker 4: it because you can't do a whole lot of mixing

2451
01:54:45,720 --> 01:54:47,760
Speaker 4: and match and once we get into the regular season.

2452
01:54:47,960 --> 01:54:51,040
Speaker 2: There we go. All right now, Bucky brooks Andy Furman,

2459
01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:12,320
Speaker 2: handle the bame blame game. Let's go, I man, let's

2460
01:55:12,320 --> 01:55:13,680
Speaker 2: get it done. Blame with me.

2461
01:55:13,880 --> 01:55:16,720
Speaker 1: It's all your fault. No, it's your fault.

2462
01:55:16,920 --> 01:55:18,240
Speaker 5: What is all your fault?

2463
01:55:21,720 --> 01:55:25,080
Speaker 2: Maybe it's everyone's faults, the liar.

2464
01:55:25,240 --> 01:55:27,880
Speaker 1: That's why there's the blame game, the blame game. Let's

2465
01:55:27,920 --> 01:55:29,160
Speaker 1: figure out who to blame.

2466
01:55:30,000 --> 01:55:32,680
Speaker 5: All right, A lot of people at fault and it's

2467
01:55:32,720 --> 01:55:36,360
Speaker 5: up to you guys to determine who. So first question here.

2468
01:55:36,560 --> 01:55:40,840
Speaker 5: LSU and South Carolina's women's basketball teams got into a

2469
01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:43,000
Speaker 5: little bit of a melee the other day after their game.

2470
01:55:43,600 --> 01:55:47,120
Speaker 5: South Carolina coach Don Staley apologized on behalf of her

2471
01:55:47,200 --> 01:55:51,920
Speaker 5: school and women's athletics, but Kim Mulkey, the LSU coach, said,

2472
01:55:51,960 --> 01:55:54,920
Speaker 5: in no uncertain terms, to let the girls duke it out.

2473
01:55:55,400 --> 01:55:56,960
Speaker 5: Who do you blame for this? Andy?

2474
01:55:57,600 --> 01:55:59,480
Speaker 2: I hate to go down this road. I hate to

2475
01:55:59,520 --> 01:56:01,760
Speaker 2: be discussed statement, But this is Kim Mulky right now

2476
01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:05,200
Speaker 2: is nothing more. And I use the term trash. Okay, trash.

2477
01:56:05,360 --> 01:56:08,040
Speaker 2: It's all about her. If you think that Aaron Rodgers

2478
01:56:08,080 --> 01:56:10,680
Speaker 2: is a narcissist, what about this woman. It's all about her,

2479
01:56:10,720 --> 01:56:13,000
Speaker 2: the way she dresses, the way she acts. She had

2480
01:56:13,040 --> 01:56:17,440
Speaker 2: a six six a six ' eight kid on South

2481
01:56:17,440 --> 01:56:20,960
Speaker 2: Carolina kind of allegedly push one of our players, and

2482
01:56:21,000 --> 01:56:23,000
Speaker 2: she said, you know what, let them duke it out.

2483
01:56:23,160 --> 01:56:24,880
Speaker 2: What kind of a statement is that from a coach.

2484
01:56:25,120 --> 01:56:27,200
Speaker 2: She should have been suspended on the spot, but she

2485
01:56:27,240 --> 01:56:30,120
Speaker 2: has not been. I never liked her. It's all about her.

2486
01:56:30,360 --> 01:56:33,640
Speaker 2: She's an egomaniac. And look, calm down with the dressing

2487
01:56:33,680 --> 01:56:35,920
Speaker 2: on the sidelines. It's all about her. And I blame

2488
01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:39,000
Speaker 2: Kim Molki never should have done that. Don Staley was great,

2489
01:56:39,400 --> 01:56:42,000
Speaker 2: she apologized for our school, our players, and the game

2490
01:56:42,040 --> 01:56:45,320
Speaker 2: of college basketball, and that was great. But Kim Moulky,

2491
01:56:45,440 --> 01:56:47,840
Speaker 2: oh my goodness, trash.

2492
01:56:47,400 --> 01:56:48,320
Speaker 5: Bucky, who do you blame?

2493
01:56:49,360 --> 01:56:50,840
Speaker 4: Well, look, I mean I have to kind of blame

2494
01:56:51,040 --> 01:56:53,280
Speaker 4: like Don Stay and her players. I mean, even though

2495
01:56:53,400 --> 01:56:56,520
Speaker 4: Don Stately is accountable for that and took accountability and

2496
01:56:56,520 --> 01:56:59,280
Speaker 4: apologize for putting kind of like a smudge on the

2497
01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:02,480
Speaker 4: women's game. Ultimately, her players can't react like that. And

2498
01:57:02,760 --> 01:57:04,840
Speaker 4: I love their brand to play. I love what don

2499
01:57:04,880 --> 01:57:07,800
Speaker 4: statey represent in terms of being a champion, their physicality,

2500
01:57:07,840 --> 01:57:10,680
Speaker 4: their toughness or whatever, but their ruffle tumble and her

2501
01:57:10,720 --> 01:57:14,120
Speaker 4: girl was wrong because her girl can't come up and

2502
01:57:14,200 --> 01:57:17,560
Speaker 4: knock the LSU player around. Regardless of what Kim Mucky

2503
01:57:17,640 --> 01:57:19,160
Speaker 4: says that, hey, I want to fight back.

2504
01:57:19,040 --> 01:57:19,720
Speaker 3: In those things.

2505
01:57:20,080 --> 01:57:22,640
Speaker 4: It initiated with the South Carolina players, So it is

2506
01:57:22,680 --> 01:57:24,320
Speaker 4: Don Stay's responsibility.

2507
01:57:24,520 --> 01:57:26,640
Speaker 5: All Right, We're gonna go point Bucky, but that both

2508
01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:29,880
Speaker 5: good points, all right. Next, after the Utah State women

2509
01:57:29,960 --> 01:57:32,760
Speaker 5: lost last week, coach Kayla Ard was asked how they

2510
01:57:32,800 --> 01:57:36,840
Speaker 5: rebuild next season, and she actually just responded to that

2511
01:57:36,840 --> 01:57:41,160
Speaker 5: that she just got fired. Never blah, never seen or

2512
01:57:41,200 --> 01:57:44,080
Speaker 5: heard of anything like that. So Andy, who do you blame?

2513
01:57:44,440 --> 01:57:46,440
Speaker 2: Oh, obviously the athletic threat is a FOOLI had no

2514
01:57:46,480 --> 01:57:48,640
Speaker 2: idea he fired the coaches. She's out there. She had

2515
01:57:48,680 --> 01:57:50,760
Speaker 2: a lot of clayers, Kayla Art, she really did, because

2516
01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:52,800
Speaker 2: when she was asked by the media, oh, what do

2517
01:57:52,800 --> 01:57:54,520
Speaker 2: you do for next year? How do you rebuild? She's wait,

2518
01:57:54,520 --> 01:57:56,960
Speaker 2: wait a minute, I ain't rebuilding. I was fired. I

2519
01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:59,160
Speaker 2: mean normally I think a coach could have just walked

2520
01:57:59,160 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 2: out and not even showed, but she had a lot

2521
01:58:00,840 --> 01:58:03,040
Speaker 2: of class. But the athletic there, how do you do that?

2522
01:58:03,200 --> 01:58:05,200
Speaker 2: How do you fire a coach before the end of

2523
01:58:05,200 --> 01:58:07,280
Speaker 2: the game. It's not crazy. I just don't get it.

2524
01:58:07,360 --> 01:58:07,960
Speaker 2: I really don't.

2525
01:58:08,240 --> 01:58:08,600
Speaker 5: Bucky.

2526
01:58:09,040 --> 01:58:11,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I blame the athletic director. I also blame

2527
01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:14,120
Speaker 4: all of these athletic directors. We're seeing this become more

2528
01:58:14,120 --> 01:58:17,080
Speaker 4: of a trend. The amount of coaches that were fired

2529
01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:20,480
Speaker 4: right after the conclusion of their tournament games, to me,

2530
01:58:20,560 --> 01:58:23,280
Speaker 4: is astonishing. Give it a look, give it a day.

2531
01:58:23,480 --> 01:58:25,520
Speaker 4: It won't even take a four to twenty four hours.

2532
01:58:25,560 --> 01:58:27,480
Speaker 4: But hey, if they play a game, you can call

2533
01:58:27,520 --> 01:58:29,920
Speaker 4: them into the office eight am, nine am the next morning.

2534
01:58:30,120 --> 01:58:31,520
Speaker 3: Hey, we're going to go in a different direction.

2535
01:58:31,560 --> 01:58:33,960
Speaker 4: We appreciate the work that you've done those things, but

2536
01:58:34,080 --> 01:58:38,440
Speaker 4: to have that conversation when everyone is emotionally heated or

2537
01:58:38,440 --> 01:58:41,200
Speaker 4: deflated of those things, yeah, I just think you have

2538
01:58:41,240 --> 01:58:42,200
Speaker 4: to handle it in a different man.

2539
01:58:43,320 --> 01:58:46,080
Speaker 5: All Right, we'll go point andy on that one. Next,

2540
01:58:46,320 --> 01:58:51,080
Speaker 5: the Vikings let quarterback Kirk Cousins leave for the Atlanta Falcons. Bucky,

2541
01:58:51,200 --> 01:58:53,080
Speaker 5: We'll start with you this time. Who do you blame.

2542
01:58:54,400 --> 01:58:55,000
Speaker 4: Uh.

2543
01:58:55,040 --> 01:58:56,320
Speaker 3: Look, I blame Kirk Cousins.

2544
01:58:56,360 --> 01:58:59,160
Speaker 4: I blame Kirk Cousins because Kirk Cousins got the big

2545
01:58:59,200 --> 01:59:01,400
Speaker 4: money but never performed at a high enough level that

2546
01:59:01,480 --> 01:59:04,200
Speaker 4: the Minnesota Vikings fel con pill to keep him. It

2547
01:59:04,280 --> 01:59:06,880
Speaker 4: was great, all the regnancies and success that it had,

2548
01:59:06,920 --> 01:59:10,520
Speaker 4: all the numbers and accolades that Kurt individually guarnered, but

2549
01:59:10,920 --> 01:59:13,240
Speaker 4: the team didn't win. We talked about two playoff appearances

2550
01:59:13,240 --> 01:59:15,400
Speaker 4: in one playoff win. That's not good enough for what

2551
01:59:15,480 --> 01:59:19,400
Speaker 4: we're talking about. Historic, legendary guaranteed money to Kirk Cousins.

2552
01:59:19,480 --> 01:59:20,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, on him.

2553
01:59:20,080 --> 01:59:21,440
Speaker 4: That's why he's in Atlanta now.

2554
01:59:21,360 --> 01:59:24,280
Speaker 2: And he pay him, paying the money. You're better off

2555
01:59:24,320 --> 01:59:26,160
Speaker 2: with and then with Adam and then without him. Right

2556
01:59:26,200 --> 01:59:28,360
Speaker 2: now they will win four games next year. That I

2557
01:59:28,400 --> 01:59:31,440
Speaker 2: promise you right there. So if management's fooled, you should

2558
01:59:31,480 --> 01:59:33,880
Speaker 2: have kept him. You know what you had? Not bad?

2559
01:59:34,080 --> 01:59:35,720
Speaker 2: All right, stupid move.

2560
01:59:35,640 --> 01:59:38,600
Speaker 5: All right. Point to Bucky on that one oh of

2561
01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:43,160
Speaker 5: the twenty twenty one NFL draft quarterback class, only Trevor Lawrence,

2562
01:59:43,200 --> 01:59:45,320
Speaker 5: the number one overall pick, is expected to be with

2563
01:59:45,360 --> 01:59:48,480
Speaker 5: the team that originally drafted him next season. At the time,

2564
01:59:48,600 --> 01:59:50,360
Speaker 5: this was one of this was considered one of the

2565
01:59:50,760 --> 01:59:53,480
Speaker 5: most special quarterback draft classes we've seen, but most of

2566
01:59:53,480 --> 01:59:55,160
Speaker 5: them have turned out to be busted. By this point,

2567
01:59:55,200 --> 01:59:56,200
Speaker 5: Who do you blame, Bucky?

2568
01:59:57,320 --> 02:00:01,840
Speaker 4: I blame I blame the media. Fihypis quarterba the entire time.

2569
02:00:01,960 --> 02:00:03,760
Speaker 4: So we make you where we put all this subtle

2570
02:00:03,760 --> 02:00:06,840
Speaker 4: pressure on these coaches and executives that they got to

2571
02:00:06,880 --> 02:00:10,720
Speaker 4: take these players high, and we do it selfishly to

2572
02:00:10,720 --> 02:00:13,560
Speaker 4: fulfill our own mock draft dreams. These guys never should

2573
02:00:13,560 --> 02:00:14,920
Speaker 4: have been as hyped as they are, and that's why

2574
02:00:14,920 --> 02:00:15,680
Speaker 4: they all flamed out.

2575
02:00:15,800 --> 02:00:18,360
Speaker 2: Andy all forget to me. It's not the media's fault.

2576
02:00:18,360 --> 02:00:20,680
Speaker 2: The point is this that you you hit it on

2577
02:00:20,680 --> 02:00:22,760
Speaker 2: the head, Bucky, that when you wrote for Fox Sports,

2578
02:00:22,960 --> 02:00:25,600
Speaker 2: the fact that they didn't have much experience and the

2579
02:00:25,760 --> 02:00:28,280
Speaker 2: collegiate level. You come to the pros, you're thrown to

2580
02:00:28,320 --> 02:00:30,840
Speaker 2: the wolves. It's all about learning, and I hadn't learned.

2581
02:00:30,880 --> 02:00:32,240
Speaker 2: That's the problem right there.

2582
02:00:32,320 --> 02:00:34,520
Speaker 5: All right, point to Bucky. Today is going to end

2583
02:00:34,520 --> 02:00:37,560
Speaker 5: in a tie, unfortunately, So we're gonna tie break next week.

2584
02:00:38,160 --> 02:00:42,000
Speaker 2: There we go, tie break it all right, we got

2585
02:00:42,000 --> 02:00:43,600
Speaker 2: the best of the rest. We'll get that and so

2586
02:00:43,720 --> 02:00:46,760
Speaker 2: much more. Right, here on Fox Sports Sunday, He's Bucky

2599
02:01:23,000 --> 02:01:26,000
Speaker 2: college football deal, and no one really said much about

2600
02:01:26,040 --> 02:01:29,360
Speaker 2: the basketball deal. I mean, I don't understand why. I mean,

2601
02:01:29,480 --> 02:01:33,480
Speaker 2: certainly we have to understand that this NCUBA basketball tournament,

2602
02:01:33,640 --> 02:01:37,320
Speaker 2: it's a tournament. It does not necessarily mean or select

2603
02:01:37,600 --> 02:01:40,880
Speaker 2: the best team available or the best team in the

2604
02:01:41,240 --> 02:01:44,440
Speaker 2: NCUBA ranks. It's the tournament and whoever wins the tournament

2605
02:01:44,480 --> 02:01:47,800
Speaker 2: wins the tournament, not necessarily the best team. It depends

2606
02:01:47,880 --> 02:01:50,160
Speaker 2: upon you know where their seeding is, who they're playing,

2607
02:01:50,200 --> 02:01:52,760
Speaker 2: whatever it may be. But I don't understand why there

2608
02:01:52,800 --> 02:01:55,160
Speaker 2: hasn't been much of it to do When they did

2609
02:01:55,200 --> 02:01:58,720
Speaker 2: expand the basketball and everybody's arguing about the football, what's

2610
02:01:58,760 --> 02:02:01,480
Speaker 2: the difference, buck Why why would they be such pullback

2611
02:02:01,520 --> 02:02:04,680
Speaker 2: and pushback in the football expansion and there wasn't much

2612
02:02:04,720 --> 02:02:06,480
Speaker 2: in the basketball.

2613
02:02:06,720 --> 02:02:09,760
Speaker 4: Well, the reason why there's such pushback is because two

2614
02:02:09,800 --> 02:02:11,880
Speaker 4: of the conferences are eating up all the money. The

2615
02:02:11,920 --> 02:02:16,240
Speaker 4: big team in the SEC are taking more more than

2616
02:02:16,280 --> 02:02:18,520
Speaker 4: their fair share when it comes to it. They also

2617
02:02:18,520 --> 02:02:22,240
Speaker 4: are putting pressure on the committee to expand from twelve

2618
02:02:22,280 --> 02:02:25,920
Speaker 4: to fourteen. Why would we already talk about expansion when

2619
02:02:25,960 --> 02:02:28,680
Speaker 4: we haven't run it with a twelve team format yet?

2620
02:02:29,520 --> 02:02:31,120
Speaker 3: It doesn't make sense, But it's a money grab.

2621
02:02:31,240 --> 02:02:33,120
Speaker 4: They have all the power, they all all the leverage.

2622
02:02:33,200 --> 02:02:35,600
Speaker 4: They want to make sure that their membery institutions got

2623
02:02:36,320 --> 02:02:39,400
Speaker 4: the benefit of being a part of the most powerful brand,

2624
02:02:39,400 --> 02:02:41,360
Speaker 4: and that's why they're flex and making it a fourteen

2625
02:02:41,400 --> 02:02:44,320
Speaker 4: team playoff instead of twelve, even though on the field

2626
02:02:44,600 --> 02:02:47,240
Speaker 4: it makes no difference whether you have twelve, fourteen, sixteen,

2627
02:02:47,360 --> 02:02:48,000
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter.

2628
02:02:48,640 --> 02:02:49,960
Speaker 2: Why would you say that what do you mean it

2629
02:02:49,960 --> 02:02:51,880
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. I mean I think it does.

2630
02:02:52,120 --> 02:02:52,760
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter.

2631
02:02:52,960 --> 02:02:54,960
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter when it comes to the gameplay. When

2632
02:02:55,000 --> 02:02:57,240
Speaker 4: it comes to the gameplay, it's not really going to

2633
02:02:57,240 --> 02:03:01,520
Speaker 4: matter because typically those top three teams, they're going to

2634
02:03:01,560 --> 02:03:04,720
Speaker 4: continue to advance through it. So this first round whatever

2635
02:03:04,760 --> 02:03:07,560
Speaker 4: we would call it the quarterfinals, to double buy, whatever,

2636
02:03:07,760 --> 02:03:10,880
Speaker 4: however they break up the field, it's not going to

2637
02:03:10,880 --> 02:03:13,040
Speaker 4: matter on the field. It only matters in lining into

2638
02:03:13,040 --> 02:03:18,080
Speaker 4: the pockets. I never saw the value in doing twelve, Like,

2639
02:03:18,160 --> 02:03:19,400
Speaker 4: if you're gon't do it, why not do it like

2640
02:03:19,440 --> 02:03:21,480
Speaker 4: you do at upper levels. Do it with sixteen. So

2641
02:03:21,520 --> 02:03:23,600
Speaker 4: now everyone can breaks down, You get all the teams,

2642
02:03:23,600 --> 02:03:26,480
Speaker 4: you don't have any controversy. People aren't going to debate

2643
02:03:26,520 --> 02:03:29,320
Speaker 4: about the seventeen team not being included. You might as

2644
02:03:29,360 --> 02:03:30,840
Speaker 4: well do that if you can go ahead and skip

2645
02:03:30,840 --> 02:03:32,160
Speaker 4: some of these steps.

2646
02:03:32,000 --> 02:03:34,680
Speaker 2: Right, I'll hear you right there. You know, it's funny

2647
02:03:34,680 --> 02:03:38,360
Speaker 2: because in basketball, at least today with selections Sunday, this

2648
02:03:38,400 --> 02:03:40,960
Speaker 2: may be the most wide open field and most wide

2649
02:03:40,960 --> 02:03:44,080
Speaker 2: open selection process we've seen in a long long time,

2650
02:03:44,160 --> 02:03:47,000
Speaker 2: which is great. I mean it means that the system

2651
02:03:47,320 --> 02:03:52,360
Speaker 2: is fair, it's balanced and there's no dominant team. And

2652
02:03:52,440 --> 02:03:54,720
Speaker 2: we saw that basically yesterday when Euston was number one

2653
02:03:54,760 --> 02:03:56,720
Speaker 2: for such a long time and they got their socks

2654
02:03:56,760 --> 02:04:00,320
Speaker 2: knocked off yesterday Biowa State. And I'm looking now in

2655
02:04:00,360 --> 02:04:03,360
Speaker 2: college football, it doesn't seem to work that way. It's

2656
02:04:03,400 --> 02:04:07,360
Speaker 2: always Alabama, Georgia and at the Ohio States and whatever

2657
02:04:07,360 --> 02:04:09,920
Speaker 2: it may be, Michigan's always up there. You don't see

2658
02:04:10,000 --> 02:04:12,800
Speaker 2: much change now. At one point in time, Nebraska is

2659
02:04:12,800 --> 02:04:16,080
Speaker 2: a big time football power. No more. What exactly happened

2660
02:04:16,120 --> 02:04:18,680
Speaker 2: to Nebraska? And why can't we see a change in

2661
02:04:18,720 --> 02:04:24,120
Speaker 2: the dynamics in college football as we see in college basketball.

2662
02:04:25,240 --> 02:04:25,720
Speaker 3: I don't know.

2663
02:04:25,880 --> 02:04:29,160
Speaker 4: I don't know why it's such a big deal. You know,

2664
02:04:29,440 --> 02:04:32,320
Speaker 4: like I look good. I don't know, like college football

2665
02:04:32,360 --> 02:04:34,360
Speaker 4: is so different. I think a lot of the pageantry,

2666
02:04:34,440 --> 02:04:36,400
Speaker 4: the tradition plays a huge.

2667
02:04:36,240 --> 02:04:36,680
Speaker 3: Role in it.

2668
02:04:36,720 --> 02:04:38,720
Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't know why we can't see so

2669
02:04:38,800 --> 02:04:42,000
Speaker 4: much much change. I think it's just getting used to

2670
02:04:42,040 --> 02:04:45,000
Speaker 4: it because college football has been a certain way for

2671
02:04:45,040 --> 02:04:47,720
Speaker 4: so long. I think in basketball it has been more adaptable.

2672
02:04:47,760 --> 02:04:50,800
Speaker 4: We've seen the ever expansion of basketball. We've seen the

2673
02:04:50,800 --> 02:04:53,680
Speaker 4: many changes and iterations of basketball. I don't know why

2674
02:04:53,880 --> 02:04:56,080
Speaker 4: maybe maybe we should, maybe we should expand it.

2675
02:04:56,600 --> 02:04:59,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. And in basketball, really and truly, it'll only take

2676
02:04:59,120 --> 02:05:01,680
Speaker 2: one or two players to to have a team change

2677
02:05:01,720 --> 02:05:05,520
Speaker 2: their fortunes, where in football you really have to load up.

2678
02:05:05,960 --> 02:05:10,160
Speaker 2: And it's almost amazing that the powers remained the same

2679
02:05:10,200 --> 02:05:12,720
Speaker 2: almost on a yearly basis. You could pick up the

2680
02:05:12,800 --> 02:05:16,200
Speaker 2: national champion basically in August. You know it's going to

2681
02:05:16,280 --> 02:05:18,560
Speaker 2: be and it doesn't really change much. I want to

2682
02:05:18,560 --> 02:05:21,200
Speaker 2: see more of an even playing field. I guess because

2683
02:05:21,240 --> 02:05:24,720
Speaker 2: of the money's in the too heavyweight conferences. That's why

2684
02:05:24,760 --> 02:05:27,280
Speaker 2: it's not going to change. I mean Nebraska, as I say,

2685
02:05:27,360 --> 02:05:29,360
Speaker 2: they were a power at one point in time. I

2686
02:05:29,360 --> 02:05:31,960
Speaker 2: don't know what happened, what went wrong. It just can't

2687
02:05:31,960 --> 02:05:35,040
Speaker 2: be the coaching. It can't be the coaching that really hurt,

2688
02:05:35,280 --> 02:05:38,280
Speaker 2: because there are certain schools that change coaches and still

2689
02:05:38,280 --> 02:05:41,240
Speaker 2: are dominant in football. And I just don't understand why

2690
02:05:41,360 --> 02:05:43,920
Speaker 2: Nebraska just went down. They really went down the tubes.

2691
02:05:44,320 --> 02:05:46,080
Speaker 2: I mean, coaching is a factor, but I don't think

2692
02:05:46,120 --> 02:05:46,919
Speaker 2: it's the factor.

2693
02:05:48,000 --> 02:05:53,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say this when it comes to Nebraska.

2694
02:05:53,160 --> 02:05:57,200
Speaker 4: Nebraska lost this way. They lost who they were and

2695
02:05:57,240 --> 02:06:00,120
Speaker 4: what they were about. They tried to conform it at

2696
02:06:00,160 --> 02:06:05,040
Speaker 4: an ad who wanted to look man. He wanted to

2697
02:06:05,080 --> 02:06:08,000
Speaker 4: modernize Nebraska football, so he hired Bill Callahan.

2698
02:06:08,080 --> 02:06:09,080
Speaker 3: They went from being.

2699
02:06:08,920 --> 02:06:13,840
Speaker 4: The powerhouse option football factory that they had been to

2700
02:06:13,960 --> 02:06:16,520
Speaker 4: trying to throw it all over the yard. And once

2701
02:06:16,560 --> 02:06:19,760
Speaker 4: they went away from the recipe in the formula that

2702
02:06:19,800 --> 02:06:23,040
Speaker 4: it worked for them for so for so long, Bob Devaney,

2703
02:06:23,120 --> 02:06:26,200
Speaker 4: Tom Osborne, Frank Solis, they hadn't been able to get

2704
02:06:26,240 --> 02:06:28,720
Speaker 4: it back. And you put the genie back in the

2705
02:06:28,760 --> 02:06:32,040
Speaker 4: bottle and I look man to walk on program, all

2706
02:06:32,040 --> 02:06:34,680
Speaker 4: the things they did until they, in my mind, recommit

2707
02:06:34,800 --> 02:06:37,960
Speaker 4: to a maybe a modernized version of what they did

2708
02:06:38,080 --> 02:06:41,080
Speaker 4: with Doctor Tom. Yeah, they'll never go back to being

2709
02:06:41,160 --> 02:06:44,200
Speaker 4: the power that they once were were in the seventies, eighties.

2710
02:06:43,960 --> 02:06:44,480
Speaker 3: And nineties.

2711
02:06:44,720 --> 02:06:46,440
Speaker 2: And one of the biggest mistakes they ever made was

2712
02:06:46,480 --> 02:06:49,320
Speaker 2: firing Frank Solig had a great season that was a

2713
02:06:49,320 --> 02:06:51,920
Speaker 2: shock or two when he was fired. Yeah, I don't

2714
02:06:51,920 --> 02:06:52,760
Speaker 2: know why they did that.

2715
02:06:52,880 --> 02:06:56,280
Speaker 4: Steve, Yeah, Steve Patterson wanted more, felt like he needed

2716
02:06:56,440 --> 02:06:58,640
Speaker 4: he could do some other stuff that he that he

2717
02:06:58,800 --> 02:07:01,520
Speaker 4: that he could make it happen. Look, man, I don't know.

2718
02:07:01,560 --> 02:07:03,240
Speaker 4: I think it's one of the biggest regrets that they have.

2719
02:07:03,400 --> 02:07:05,880
Speaker 4: I'm sure that if they could do it all over

2720
02:07:05,920 --> 02:07:09,520
Speaker 4: again that they would They were kind of trying to

2721
02:07:09,800 --> 02:07:11,960
Speaker 4: revamp it, and they would be satisfied with what they

2722
02:07:11,960 --> 02:07:12,360
Speaker 4: were doing.

2723
02:07:13,120 --> 02:07:15,520
Speaker 2: I have something that's really eating in my craw and

2724
02:07:15,560 --> 02:07:17,040
Speaker 2: I touched on it a little bit last week, and

2725
02:07:17,040 --> 02:07:19,160
Speaker 2: I don't want to just kind of put some closure

2726
02:07:19,200 --> 02:07:21,000
Speaker 2: on it today if I may, if you don't mind,

2727
02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:23,720
Speaker 2: It's just Caitlyn Clark thing. When I keep on here

2728
02:07:23,760 --> 02:07:26,600
Speaker 2: and all week long, I kept on hearing it that

2729
02:07:26,680 --> 02:07:30,000
Speaker 2: she's college basketball's all time leading scorer, and she's not.

2730
02:07:30,480 --> 02:07:34,080
Speaker 2: She's college basketball it's women's all time leading scorer. And

2731
02:07:34,120 --> 02:07:37,800
Speaker 2: I did some mathematicals on this to prove my point. Okay,

2732
02:07:38,480 --> 02:07:44,480
Speaker 2: Pistol Pete Maravich played three years of varsity basketball at LSU.

2733
02:07:44,960 --> 02:07:48,440
Speaker 2: When he played, there was no three point shot. Pistol

2734
02:07:48,480 --> 02:07:53,640
Speaker 2: Pete scored three thousand, six hundred sixty seven points given

2735
02:07:54,000 --> 02:07:58,440
Speaker 2: end the story. Caitlyn Clark scored three thousand, six hundred

2736
02:07:58,720 --> 02:08:01,960
Speaker 2: eighty five points, and they claim she broke his record

2737
02:08:02,120 --> 02:08:06,120
Speaker 2: and she's the all time leading scorer. However, here's the asterisk. Okay,

2738
02:08:06,560 --> 02:08:11,360
Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark played four years. Caitlyn Clark played with a

2739
02:08:11,440 --> 02:08:15,400
Speaker 2: three point shooting goal, a three point shot which Pete

2740
02:08:15,400 --> 02:08:19,240
Speaker 2: didn't have. So here's the deal. She made one hundred

2741
02:08:19,280 --> 02:08:23,400
Speaker 2: and fifty six three point shots with total four hundred

2742
02:08:23,440 --> 02:08:26,200
Speaker 2: and six four hundred and sixty eight points. One hundred

2743
02:08:26,200 --> 02:08:29,600
Speaker 2: and fifty six times two is three hundred and twelve.

2744
02:08:30,000 --> 02:08:33,400
Speaker 2: All right, your minus the three hundred and twelve, okay,

2745
02:08:33,680 --> 02:08:38,880
Speaker 2: So that means she has three thousand, three hundred and

2746
02:08:38,920 --> 02:08:43,360
Speaker 2: seventy three points. Okay. Pistol wins in three years, not

2747
02:08:43,520 --> 02:08:47,720
Speaker 2: four years. And to me, the comparison between the two

2748
02:08:47,880 --> 02:08:51,760
Speaker 2: is ridiculous. I don't think men's sports should be compared

2749
02:08:51,800 --> 02:08:54,880
Speaker 2: to women's sports in any sport. And why they're doing

2750
02:08:54,960 --> 02:08:57,720
Speaker 2: it here in basketball it bowls me away. I don't

2751
02:08:57,760 --> 02:09:00,440
Speaker 2: understand who started it, why they started it, and the

2752
02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:03,400
Speaker 2: reason being, they have Major League Soccer and they have

2753
02:09:03,440 --> 02:09:06,120
Speaker 2: a women's National Soccer League. They don't compare stats in

2754
02:09:06,160 --> 02:09:08,880
Speaker 2: either league. They have the National Hockey League, they have

2755
02:09:08,920 --> 02:09:11,640
Speaker 2: a National Women's Hockey League. They don't compare the stats

2756
02:09:11,640 --> 02:09:13,920
Speaker 2: in either league. I don't know why they decided to

2757
02:09:13,960 --> 02:09:18,360
Speaker 2: compare the stats in women's basketball and men's basketball. I

2758
02:09:18,480 --> 02:09:22,360
Speaker 2: understand that women's basketball is flying for attention. Caitlin clock

2759
02:09:22,440 --> 02:09:24,880
Speaker 2: has given you that she's a great player. She's a

2760
02:09:24,920 --> 02:09:27,560
Speaker 2: tremendus player. She'll go on to the WNBA and do

2761
02:09:27,680 --> 02:09:30,040
Speaker 2: well there as well. She has probably done more for

2762
02:09:30,120 --> 02:09:34,480
Speaker 2: collegiate basketball, both men and women, than any other player.

2763
02:09:34,520 --> 02:09:37,600
Speaker 2: I'd say maybe in the last ten years. She's done great.

2764
02:09:38,000 --> 02:09:42,640
Speaker 2: Several weeks ago, when IOWA was playing on national TV,

2765
02:09:43,160 --> 02:09:46,120
Speaker 2: they were going against the Boston Celtic NBA game. They

2766
02:09:46,120 --> 02:09:49,440
Speaker 2: outdrew them in the ratings. She's done great, But to

2767
02:09:49,520 --> 02:09:53,040
Speaker 2: compare them is a misnomer. It's a mistake. Bucky Brooks,

2768
02:09:53,080 --> 02:09:55,760
Speaker 2: I know you're a big women's college basketball fan. You

2769
02:09:55,840 --> 02:09:58,720
Speaker 2: follow the sport very closely. Do you agree that they

2770
02:09:58,720 --> 02:10:00,680
Speaker 2: shouldn't be compared? That's what I'm saying.

2771
02:10:02,600 --> 02:10:04,840
Speaker 4: No, they probably shouldn't be compared. I mean, like it's

2772
02:10:04,880 --> 02:10:07,880
Speaker 4: a completely different game. But I was saying when we

2773
02:10:07,920 --> 02:10:11,680
Speaker 4: had this conversation a few weeks ago, it was only

2774
02:10:11,760 --> 02:10:14,160
Speaker 4: to highlight the remarkable feats. It was to bring the

2775
02:10:14,280 --> 02:10:20,080
Speaker 4: casual in. There's no direct tie between or direct comparison

2776
02:10:20,160 --> 02:10:23,040
Speaker 4: between Pistol Pete and Caitlin Clark, but it's a way

2777
02:10:23,080 --> 02:10:26,320
Speaker 4: to tie the casual fan in, little casual fan in

2778
02:10:26,320 --> 02:10:29,120
Speaker 4: to watching the game. That's really what it was about.

2779
02:10:29,320 --> 02:10:32,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, But every time I hear her clear, every time

2780
02:10:32,120 --> 02:10:34,000
Speaker 2: I hear her mentioned on TV or radio, every time

2781
02:10:34,000 --> 02:10:37,480
Speaker 2: I see a story in print, she's All Basketball College

2782
02:10:37,480 --> 02:10:40,440
Speaker 2: BASKETBS all time leading scorer, and she's not. She's college

2783
02:10:40,440 --> 02:10:44,160
Speaker 2: basketball's women's all time leading scorer. And that bugs me,

2784
02:10:44,200 --> 02:10:47,280
Speaker 2: you know, And I'm surprised that the people at LSU

2785
02:10:48,440 --> 02:10:51,840
Speaker 2: don't jump on that and say something to the fact that, look,

2786
02:10:52,160 --> 02:10:55,360
Speaker 2: the old time leading college score is pistol p Maravich

2787
02:10:55,560 --> 02:10:58,800
Speaker 2: and he did it in three years, and I don't

2788
02:10:58,800 --> 02:11:00,600
Speaker 2: get it. And look, I think it was a class

2789
02:11:00,680 --> 02:11:03,600
Speaker 2: move on the part of Maravich's family because when she

2790
02:11:03,680 --> 02:11:06,960
Speaker 2: did break that quote break the record, they came out

2791
02:11:06,960 --> 02:11:10,680
Speaker 2: and congratulated her on whatever. More or less, they didn't say, no,

2792
02:11:11,320 --> 02:11:13,560
Speaker 2: she didn't break the record. It was my dad who

2793
02:11:13,600 --> 02:11:16,640
Speaker 2: broke the record. Pete Maravich broke the record. But you know, look,

2794
02:11:16,800 --> 02:11:18,760
Speaker 2: maybe I'm making a mountain out of a mohill. Maybe

2795
02:11:18,760 --> 02:11:21,280
Speaker 2: I'm going too far, Maybe I'm pushing something that won't

2796
02:11:21,280 --> 02:11:24,000
Speaker 2: be moved. I don't know, But to me, it bugs

2797
02:11:24,000 --> 02:11:25,920
Speaker 2: me because I think it's wrong. I just don't think

2798
02:11:26,000 --> 02:11:28,200
Speaker 2: you compare, and especially in this day and age with

2799
02:11:28,320 --> 02:11:31,800
Speaker 2: trans athletes when they have men swimming versus women on

2800
02:11:31,880 --> 02:11:34,840
Speaker 2: swimming teams, and it's crazy, So why would you compare

2801
02:11:34,880 --> 02:11:37,160
Speaker 2: the two. It just it doesn't make any sense to me.

2802
02:11:37,280 --> 02:11:39,400
Speaker 2: So I'll leave it at that. If you have any comments,

2803
02:11:39,520 --> 02:11:42,440
Speaker 2: we'll certainly take phone calls at eight seven seven ninety

2804
02:11:42,520 --> 02:11:45,400
Speaker 2: nine on Fox eight seven seven nine ninety six sixty three,

2805
02:11:45,520 --> 02:11:48,080
Speaker 2: sixty nine, and of course at Bucket Brooks, at Andy

2806
02:11:48,080 --> 02:11:50,840
Speaker 2: Furman FSR. And last but not least, if I may,

2807
02:11:51,400 --> 02:11:54,440
Speaker 2: it's hard to believe, buck it really is that a

2808
02:11:54,480 --> 02:11:57,800
Speaker 2: week from Thursday, I believe, is opening day at least

2809
02:11:57,800 --> 02:12:00,560
Speaker 2: in Cincinnati for Major League Baseball, and you don't hear

2810
02:12:00,600 --> 02:12:02,680
Speaker 2: a peep. You don't hear a peep. There has been

2811
02:12:02,760 --> 02:12:07,040
Speaker 2: more conversation on NFL free agency, which is not even

2812
02:12:07,080 --> 02:12:09,400
Speaker 2: a game, but it's I guess, more important than the

2813
02:12:09,480 --> 02:12:12,760
Speaker 2: minds of many more important free agency news. Why baseball

2814
02:12:12,800 --> 02:12:14,960
Speaker 2: starts for a week and not a peep about Major

2815
02:12:15,000 --> 02:12:17,320
Speaker 2: League Baseball, which tells me if I worked in Major

2816
02:12:17,400 --> 02:12:20,640
Speaker 2: League baseball, I'm concerned. I think that's a major problem.

2817
02:12:20,720 --> 02:12:24,000
Speaker 2: I think it's a big time problem.

2818
02:12:24,080 --> 02:12:26,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it is a huge problem, the fact

2819
02:12:26,120 --> 02:12:28,360
Speaker 4: that there's no buzz around baseball. I can't really figure

2820
02:12:28,360 --> 02:12:30,240
Speaker 4: out why there's no buzz. And I'm a baseball fan,

2821
02:12:30,640 --> 02:12:34,520
Speaker 4: but I mean it's kind of creeping up on us quickly. Yeah,

2822
02:12:34,600 --> 02:12:36,120
Speaker 4: and no one is talking about it.

2823
02:12:36,120 --> 02:12:38,560
Speaker 2: It's kind of just just a weird for me, you know.

2824
02:12:39,080 --> 02:12:42,360
Speaker 2: I want to throw out some possibilities why maybe there's

2825
02:12:42,400 --> 02:12:46,600
Speaker 2: no buzz. I mean, I understand that in many people's

2826
02:12:46,680 --> 02:12:50,080
Speaker 2: minds that baseball now has become quote somewhat of a

2827
02:12:50,160 --> 02:12:57,320
Speaker 2: foreign sport. Perhaps people from Japan, the Far East, whatever

2828
02:12:57,320 --> 02:13:02,280
Speaker 2: it may be, Central America, wherever it may be, non

2829
02:13:02,320 --> 02:13:05,280
Speaker 2: English speaking athletes are playing baseball. That could be a problem.

2830
02:13:05,520 --> 02:13:09,440
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know. I don't know why the popularity

2831
02:13:09,480 --> 02:13:12,640
Speaker 2: has soured, or maybe it's not popular, just the interesting

2832
02:13:12,920 --> 02:13:15,560
Speaker 2: the coverage factor. I don't know. I can't put a

2833
02:13:15,600 --> 02:13:18,280
Speaker 2: finger on it. But if i'm major League Baseball, I'm concerned.

2834
02:13:18,640 --> 02:13:21,320
Speaker 2: And maybe there's no real face of the game of baseball.

2835
02:13:21,360 --> 02:13:25,040
Speaker 2: Perhaps so Tony. Maybe I may show Tony could be

2836
02:13:25,040 --> 02:13:27,640
Speaker 2: the face of baseball, but he doesn't speak English, so

2837
02:13:27,840 --> 02:13:29,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, But who would you say would be

2838
02:13:29,480 --> 02:13:32,080
Speaker 2: the face of the NFL like it is Patrick Mahomes,

2839
02:13:32,240 --> 02:13:36,280
Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey. What baseball needs is a romance like Kelsey

2840
02:13:36,320 --> 02:13:39,080
Speaker 2: and Travis Swift. Maybe that's what they'd be, Taylor Swift,

2841
02:13:39,160 --> 02:13:40,200
Speaker 2: Maybe that's what they need.

2842
02:13:41,800 --> 02:13:44,760
Speaker 4: I think Patrick Mahomes would be the face just because

2843
02:13:45,080 --> 02:13:47,320
Speaker 4: the way that they've won, the way they continue to win,

2844
02:13:48,320 --> 02:13:51,880
Speaker 4: how popular he is, and he's a dominant player. To me,

2845
02:13:52,120 --> 02:13:55,800
Speaker 4: that's a I would think he would be it. I

2846
02:13:55,800 --> 02:13:57,520
Speaker 4: think I don't really don't think he were close.

2847
02:13:57,840 --> 02:14:00,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I know you're a baseball fan.

2848
02:14:00,360 --> 02:14:02,200
Speaker 2: I just you know, and I'm not gonna say it

2849
02:14:02,200 --> 02:14:04,400
Speaker 2: bothers me, but I just you know, if I worked

2850
02:14:04,400 --> 02:14:07,080
Speaker 2: in Major League baseball, i'd be concerned. And maybe the

2851
02:14:07,120 --> 02:14:09,640
Speaker 2: season is too long, you know, that's a possibility too.

2852
02:14:09,640 --> 02:14:11,600
Speaker 2: I always live less is more and the fact that

2853
02:14:11,640 --> 02:14:14,160
Speaker 2: every game means so much in the National Football League,

2854
02:14:14,240 --> 02:14:16,040
Speaker 2: he plays so many games, one hundred and sixty two

2855
02:14:16,040 --> 02:14:18,600
Speaker 2: ball games, just you know, starting in March and ending

2856
02:14:18,640 --> 02:14:21,360
Speaker 2: in November. It's long. It's a long season. So I

2857
02:14:21,360 --> 02:14:23,560
Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe people have some ideas. Again, you can

2858
02:14:23,600 --> 02:14:25,760
Speaker 2: get to us at eight seven seven nineteen n on Fox.

2859
02:14:25,840 --> 02:14:27,760
Speaker 2: All right, this we have a little bit of this,

2860
02:14:27,800 --> 02:14:29,640
Speaker 2: a little bit of that, and of course that Bucket

2861
02:14:29,640 --> 02:14:32,400
Speaker 2: Brooks had Andy Ferman FSR eight seven seven ninety n

2862
02:14:32,560 --> 02:14:37,200
Speaker 2: on Fox. Now, football is a serious business in this state.

2863
02:14:37,560 --> 02:14:41,600
Speaker 2: We'll tell you all about that next. There's a powerful

2864
02:14:41,680 --> 02:14:43,960
Speaker 2: man in charge right here. We'll get to that in

2865
02:14:44,080 --> 02:14:46,080
Speaker 2: just about a minute. It's about maybe twenty two minutes

02:14:46,120 --> 02:14:49,160
Speaker 2: past the hour. This is Fox Sports Sunday and Fox Sports. Ready.

2867
02:14:49,200 --> 02:14:50,360
Speaker 2: We've got a call and we'll get to him in

2868
02:14:50,400 --> 02:14:52,600
Speaker 2: a minute. He's Bucky Brooks and Andy Ferman. And by

2869
02:14:52,640 --> 02:14:55,080
Speaker 2: the way, they were live from the ti iraq dot Com.

2870
02:14:55,080 --> 02:14:58,280

Speaker 2: Graduate Hotels, but college fans stay and track the supply.

2875
02:15:12,240 --> 02:15:14,720
Speaker 2: All right, without further ado, we're going with the Great

2876
02:15:14,760 --> 02:15:17,840
Speaker 2: City of Portland. Red from Portland. You're on with Bucket

2877
02:15:17,840 --> 02:15:20,920
Speaker 2: Brooks and Andy Furman. How you doing, Red, Andy?

2878
02:15:21,240 --> 02:15:26,080
Speaker 10: Bucky, I love you guys, and Andy, I want to

2879
02:15:26,160 --> 02:15:29,960
Speaker 10: tag off of your take of Caitlin Clark versus pystol

2880
02:15:29,960 --> 02:15:33,800
Speaker 10: Pete Marrivich. There's one important aspect you left out of

2881
02:15:33,840 --> 02:15:37,240
Speaker 10: that in the difference between the Marrivich era and what

2882
02:15:37,400 --> 02:15:40,560
Speaker 10: we see today. There was no shot cart back when

2883
02:15:40,640 --> 02:15:43,640
Speaker 10: pistol Pete played. So there are games there was a

2884
02:15:43,680 --> 02:15:45,200
Speaker 10: game and you can look it up.

2885
02:15:45,360 --> 02:15:48,720
Speaker 9: Where teams used to stall. There's an SEC game with

2886
02:15:48,840 --> 02:15:53,440
Speaker 9: Tennessee and I think Auburn where Tennessee won eleven to six.

2887
02:15:54,200 --> 02:15:57,000
Speaker 9: So teams used to throw the stall at Marriviage to

2888
02:15:57,120 --> 02:16:00,720
Speaker 9: scroll it down, and that's one aspect for out about it. Now,

2889
02:16:00,760 --> 02:16:05,520
Speaker 9: that's a great point this year's March Madness. There are

2890
02:16:05,600 --> 02:16:08,760
Speaker 9: so many ones and twos that got knocked out. There's

2891
02:16:08,880 --> 02:16:13,120
Speaker 9: even a ten seed that won their conference tournament, which

2892
02:16:13,160 --> 02:16:16,400
Speaker 9: means all these lower seats getting in this year like

2893
02:16:16,560 --> 02:16:20,240
Speaker 9: never before a ten seed. They had to win five

2894
02:16:20,360 --> 02:16:21,640
Speaker 9: games in five nights.

2895
02:16:21,640 --> 02:16:24,440
Speaker 10: Now, I remember what it was like being nineteen twenty.

2896
02:16:24,320 --> 02:16:27,000
Speaker 9: Years old and playing him rat ball.

2897
02:16:26,840 --> 02:16:30,000
Speaker 10: And rec league. I can't ever remember playing five nights

2898
02:16:30,040 --> 02:16:33,800
Speaker 10: in a row. The heartbeats kids are showing is unbelievable.

2899
02:16:34,080 --> 02:16:36,160
Speaker 10: And this year's March Madness is going to be.

2900
02:16:36,160 --> 02:16:36,879
Speaker 9: The best ever.

2901
02:16:37,600 --> 02:16:39,440
Speaker 2: You know, hold off for a said because I have

2902
02:16:39,480 --> 02:16:42,320
Speaker 2: a thought process on that, because the other night in

2903
02:16:42,360 --> 02:16:45,320
Speaker 2: the Big twelve tournament, University of Cincinni was playing Kansas

2904
02:16:45,560 --> 02:16:47,640
Speaker 2: and Cincinnati beating Hi by about twenty. But you know,

2905
02:16:48,000 --> 02:16:50,760
Speaker 2: a truth being known, Kansas was missing two of his startist.

2906
02:16:51,080 --> 02:16:53,480
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the Kansas bans and the Kansas coaching staff,

2907
02:16:53,480 --> 02:16:56,600
Speaker 2: and they had not seen that concern. And you bring

2908
02:16:56,680 --> 02:16:58,959
Speaker 2: up a great point playing five games in five days

2909
02:16:59,000 --> 02:17:02,160
Speaker 2: and winning all five. I don't think the coaches care

2910
02:17:02,680 --> 02:17:06,040
Speaker 2: that greatly if you get knocked out of the conference tournament,

2911
02:17:06,080 --> 02:17:07,800
Speaker 2: if in fact, you know you're going to play in

2912
02:17:07,800 --> 02:17:10,880
Speaker 2: the NCAA tournament anyway, because you'd rather have these guys

2913
02:17:10,959 --> 02:17:14,160
Speaker 2: rest and get healthy than win that conference tournament. Maybe

2914
02:17:14,160 --> 02:17:16,760
Speaker 2: I'm crazy, Bucky. What's your take on that. I think

2915
02:17:16,800 --> 02:17:18,879
Speaker 2: it's not that big of a deal. You're going to

2916
02:17:18,920 --> 02:17:22,280
Speaker 2: the tournament anyway. Like yesterday Houston got kicked pretty good

2917
02:17:22,480 --> 02:17:25,480
Speaker 2: by Iowa State, but they're going anyway, and they still

2918
02:17:25,480 --> 02:17:26,680
Speaker 2: may be a number one seed.

2919
02:17:28,040 --> 02:17:29,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there's something to that.

2920
02:17:30,080 --> 02:17:33,760
Speaker 4: I know. Back Roy Williams for North Carolina never put

2921
02:17:33,800 --> 02:17:36,760
Speaker 4: a lot of stock into the ACC tournament. It was

2922
02:17:36,800 --> 02:17:39,160
Speaker 4: more about the regular season, because the regular season title

2923
02:17:39,560 --> 02:17:42,760
Speaker 4: would guarantee you pretty much a good seed. The tournament

2924
02:17:43,320 --> 02:17:45,080
Speaker 4: is a grind, and if you think about the grind

2925
02:17:45,120 --> 02:17:46,800
Speaker 4: of the tournament, there was the NC state that he

2926
02:17:46,879 --> 02:17:49,600
Speaker 4: was referencing. Having to play five games in five days.

2927
02:17:49,640 --> 02:17:52,040
Speaker 4: I can leave you kind of worn down, and so

2928
02:17:52,080 --> 02:17:53,960
Speaker 4: you wonder how much juice are they going to have

2929
02:17:54,080 --> 02:17:56,480
Speaker 4: left when they get to the next round. Now, they

2930
02:17:56,560 --> 02:17:59,480
Speaker 4: needed to win the tournament to get into the NC DOUBLEA.

2931
02:17:59,600 --> 02:18:03,840
Speaker 4: But it's like Carolina, man, sometimes you do wonder if

2932
02:18:03,840 --> 02:18:06,040
Speaker 4: you better serve, lose early in the tournament, get back

2933
02:18:06,080 --> 02:18:09,800
Speaker 4: to practice, get ready for the NCAA, because at the

2934
02:18:09,920 --> 02:18:13,240
Speaker 4: end of the day, everyone is judged in this six team,

2935
02:18:13,440 --> 02:18:16,199
Speaker 4: this six game tournament that is about to take place

2936
02:18:16,280 --> 02:18:19,040
Speaker 4: next weekend. If you win six games in a row,

2937
02:18:19,240 --> 02:18:21,879
Speaker 4: you're crowned national title. And at the end of it,

2938
02:18:21,920 --> 02:18:23,280
Speaker 4: that's all that anybody cares about.

2939
02:18:23,440 --> 02:18:25,920
Speaker 2: You're exactly right, You're right, really, you're still there.

2940
02:18:26,879 --> 02:18:29,039
Speaker 10: I still am, Yes, sure, Can I say you one

2941
02:18:29,080 --> 02:18:35,879
Speaker 10: more thing? A Dutch Nafari Dante their center, refuse to

2942
02:18:35,959 --> 02:18:39,480
Speaker 10: let the Ducks lose that team. I would not want

2943
02:18:39,520 --> 02:18:42,400
Speaker 10: to be playing that team. And Dana Olm and their.

2944
02:18:42,280 --> 02:18:46,080
Speaker 9: Coach is so underrated. Andy Bucky, thanks for.

2945
02:18:46,080 --> 02:18:48,000
Speaker 10: Letting we get on this morning with you guys.

2946
02:18:48,440 --> 02:18:50,680
Speaker 2: Thank you have a great day. There we go. You know,

2947
02:18:50,720 --> 02:18:52,880
Speaker 2: there are certain teams in this tournament right now that

2948
02:18:53,080 --> 02:18:55,200
Speaker 2: you mentioned this tens, I mean team like Temple is

2949
02:18:55,240 --> 02:18:57,280
Speaker 2: in the tournament right now, and I don't know if

2950
02:18:57,280 --> 02:18:59,199
Speaker 2: that's good to a band. I remember several years ago

2951
02:18:59,440 --> 02:19:02,720
Speaker 2: when sat was the darling and Loyal of Chicago is

2952
02:19:02,760 --> 02:19:05,200
Speaker 2: the darling of the tournament, and they talk about, you know,

2953
02:19:05,560 --> 02:19:09,000
Speaker 2: the teams that just have no chance whatsoever, and then

2954
02:19:09,000 --> 02:19:11,360
Speaker 2: Saint Peter's comes back and they'd be Kentucky in the

2955
02:19:11,360 --> 02:19:13,520
Speaker 2: first round. So you know, I think it makes a

2956
02:19:13,560 --> 02:19:17,000
Speaker 2: great storyline. But you know, sometimes maybe these teams don't

2957
02:19:17,000 --> 02:19:18,800
Speaker 2: even deserve to be in the tournament. But you win

2958
02:19:18,840 --> 02:19:21,280
Speaker 2: five games in five days, you deserve to be there.

2959
02:19:21,480 --> 02:19:23,280
Speaker 2: You deserve to be in the tournament. Even if you

2960
02:19:23,320 --> 02:19:25,320
Speaker 2: got knocked out in the first round, you deserve to

2961
02:19:25,360 --> 02:19:27,680
Speaker 2: be there. I just can't imagine playing five games in

2962
02:19:27,720 --> 02:19:28,320
Speaker 2: five days.

2963
02:19:29,920 --> 02:19:33,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is tough, but I mean adrenaline can carry

2964
02:19:33,520 --> 02:19:35,720
Speaker 4: you a long way, and we've seen it do it.

2965
02:19:35,720 --> 02:19:39,400
Speaker 4: We've seen it had that kind of effect on teams,

2966
02:19:39,400 --> 02:19:43,120
Speaker 4: and NC State was able to benefit from it. It

2967
02:19:43,280 --> 02:19:46,760
Speaker 4: looks it's a grind, but that's also why marsh Madness

2968
02:19:46,840 --> 02:19:50,400
Speaker 4: is a season to itself. It's unlike the regular season.

2969
02:19:50,760 --> 02:19:54,160
Speaker 4: You can see all the upsets. College basketball is great

2970
02:19:54,200 --> 02:19:55,359
Speaker 4: now because of the parody.

2971
02:19:55,840 --> 02:19:56,680
Speaker 3: You really don't know.

2972
02:19:56,760 --> 02:19:59,279
Speaker 4: The difference between the good teams and the great teams

2973
02:19:59,640 --> 02:20:01,600
Speaker 4: is not as much as it used to be, and

2974
02:20:01,640 --> 02:20:02,160
Speaker 4: so you got.

2975
02:20:02,080 --> 02:20:03,959
Speaker 3: To bring you a game each and every week.

2976
02:20:05,080 --> 02:20:06,920
Speaker 2: Well, you know, they talk about the term cinderella. You

2977
02:20:07,280 --> 02:20:10,520
Speaker 2: don't see cinderella teams winning because they don't deserve to

2978
02:20:10,560 --> 02:20:12,440
Speaker 2: be on the same court at times as these are

2979
02:20:12,520 --> 02:20:15,640
Speaker 2: the teams now. Look right now, the teams that are

2980
02:20:15,879 --> 02:20:19,760
Speaker 2: favorites heavy favorites. I like Dan Hurley. I think he's

2981
02:20:19,800 --> 02:20:21,840
Speaker 2: a great coach. I know him. I'd like to see

2982
02:20:21,879 --> 02:20:23,840
Speaker 2: him do well, and he's done well, and they won

2983
02:20:23,879 --> 02:20:26,920
Speaker 2: the Big East Tournament last night by Beanie Marquette. I

2984
02:20:27,040 --> 02:20:30,240
Speaker 2: just don't think it's good or healthy for college basketball

2985
02:20:30,480 --> 02:20:32,840
Speaker 2: for Connecticut to repeat. It'd be great for him and

2986
02:20:32,840 --> 02:20:34,959
Speaker 2: great for Connecticut and great for the Big East, but

2987
02:20:35,000 --> 02:20:36,760
Speaker 2: I'd like to see someone else win it. I think

2988
02:20:36,760 --> 02:20:38,320
Speaker 2: it was a great story this year to kind of

2989
02:20:38,360 --> 02:20:42,120
Speaker 2: win almost unnoticed. The fact that Houston their first year

2990
02:20:42,160 --> 02:20:44,520
Speaker 2: in the Big Twelve they won the conference. I think

2991
02:20:44,600 --> 02:20:47,640
Speaker 2: that's amazing. I think there's tremendous what they've done. Again,

2992
02:20:47,680 --> 02:20:50,280
Speaker 2: they got spanked yesterday, but again I don't think there

2993
02:20:50,320 --> 02:20:52,920
Speaker 2: was not much concern because I think they know going

2994
02:20:52,959 --> 02:20:55,119
Speaker 2: in A they're going to be in the tournament, and

2995
02:20:55,160 --> 02:20:57,440
Speaker 2: B they may still be the number one seed, so

2996
02:20:57,680 --> 02:21:00,240
Speaker 2: you know, for Connecticut to repeat, I don't think. I think

2997
02:21:00,200 --> 02:21:02,680
Speaker 2: it's a great thing for college basketball, That's all I'm saying.

2998
02:21:02,720 --> 02:21:04,920
Speaker 2: And they may very well compete because I think they're

2999
02:21:04,959 --> 02:21:07,680
Speaker 2: probably head and shoulders above others. And really, if you

3000
02:21:07,720 --> 02:21:09,680
Speaker 2: look at their roster, they don't have many of those

3001
02:21:09,680 --> 02:21:12,320
Speaker 2: five star mc donald all Americans, which tells me what

3002
02:21:12,440 --> 02:21:14,440
Speaker 2: kind of a great coach Dan Hurley really is.

3003
02:21:16,240 --> 02:21:18,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean like they're in defending champs. They have

3004
02:21:18,320 --> 02:21:20,520
Speaker 4: a formula and a recipe that works. I actually think

3005
02:21:20,520 --> 02:21:23,760
Speaker 4: it is good for them to make a run. I

3006
02:21:23,760 --> 02:21:28,160
Speaker 4: think we all benefit from Dynastics situations, teams that we

3007
02:21:28,200 --> 02:21:30,160
Speaker 4: can kind of grow to love and hate because it

3008
02:21:30,720 --> 02:21:34,480
Speaker 4: brings interest and intrigue and you either love to wash

3009
02:21:34,600 --> 02:21:36,600
Speaker 4: him to see them lose or he loved to watch

3010
02:21:36,720 --> 02:21:40,280
Speaker 4: them because you were a fan. I think going into

3011
02:21:40,320 --> 02:21:43,200
Speaker 4: the tournament is not only Yukon is Houston. There'd be

3012
02:21:43,240 --> 02:21:46,360
Speaker 4: some interests around Carolina Purdue because Zach Edy two time

3013
02:21:46,400 --> 02:21:50,880
Speaker 4: player of the Year. They will look, it's wide open.

3014
02:21:51,120 --> 02:21:53,920
Speaker 4: It's going to be wide open, no matter what people say,

3015
02:21:54,000 --> 02:21:55,840
Speaker 4: like you won't be able to predict it. The final

3016
02:21:55,840 --> 02:21:57,920
Speaker 4: four probably won't have the top four seeds in it.

3017
02:21:58,640 --> 02:22:00,760
Speaker 4: You got to watch and that's one of the best.

3018
02:22:00,800 --> 02:22:02,320
Speaker 4: That's what makes it so great.

3019
02:22:03,120 --> 02:22:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was surprised with that Purdue loss yesterday too,

3020
02:22:05,560 --> 02:22:07,879
Speaker 2: but again I don't think there was that much concern.

3021
02:22:07,920 --> 02:22:10,160
Speaker 2: They lost to Wisconsin in overtime. That was a great game,

3022
02:22:10,680 --> 02:22:13,600
Speaker 2: and Wisconsin's coming on like Gangbusters too down the stretch,

3023
02:22:13,640 --> 02:22:15,560
Speaker 2: so I think they won their last five. So it's

3024
02:22:16,120 --> 02:22:18,640
Speaker 2: kind of crazy. That makes her a great tournament. But

3025
02:22:18,680 --> 02:22:22,039
Speaker 2: it's not great for gamblers, I wouldn't think, because you know, again,

3026
02:22:22,280 --> 02:22:23,960
Speaker 2: being wide open, I don't know who you put your

3027
02:22:23,959 --> 02:22:27,600
Speaker 2: money on. So this pool and the tournament challenge that

3028
02:22:27,680 --> 02:22:29,840
Speaker 2: Fox is gonna have, the bracket challenge, they have to

3029
02:22:29,879 --> 02:22:32,360
Speaker 2: be wide open. I'd like to see who wins that one.

3030
02:22:32,400 --> 02:22:34,480
Speaker 2: That's gonna be real big and that starts tonight, so

3031
02:22:34,480 --> 02:22:37,080
Speaker 2: we'll see what happens there. All right. He's Bucky Brooks.

3034
02:22:42,720 --> 02:22:45,960
Speaker 2: to be an athlete or athletic to even earn a scholarship?

3035
02:22:46,200 --> 02:22:49,480
Speaker 2: That's next. But first, the real Eye Man, the one

3038
02:22:56,200 --> 02:22:59,280
Speaker 2: and Bucky. On Saturday, the Chicago Bears trade and quarterback

3039
02:22:59,440 --> 02:23:02,200
Speaker 2: Justin Field to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a conditional draft pick.

3040
02:23:02,280 --> 02:23:02,440
Speaker 3: Well.

3041
02:23:02,560 --> 02:23:06,360
Speaker 2: NFL Media just reported that Steelers coach Mike Tomlin reached

3042
02:23:06,360 --> 02:23:08,720
Speaker 2: out to Russell Wilson last night to let him know

3043
02:23:08,840 --> 02:23:12,720
Speaker 2: that Wilson will still be the starter. On conference championship

3044
02:23:12,760 --> 02:23:16,760
Speaker 2: Saturday night, in college basketball, seventh ranked Iowa State blew

3045
02:23:16,800 --> 02:23:19,200
Speaker 2: out number one Houston sixty nine to forty one of

3046
02:23:19,240 --> 02:23:22,840
Speaker 2: the Big Twelve Championship game. Get this long. Beach State

3047
02:23:22,920 --> 02:23:26,240
Speaker 2: fired head coach Dan Munson on Monday after seventeen seasons,

3048
02:23:26,280 --> 02:23:28,240
Speaker 2: but they allowed him to coach the Big West Tournament,

3049

3072
02:24:41,040 --> 02:24:43,560
Speaker 2: we should be talking about Nebraska football that we did

3073
02:24:43,640 --> 02:24:47,000
Speaker 2: just a little while back. The Governor of Nebraska, Jim Pillin,

3074
02:24:47,280 --> 02:24:50,000
Speaker 2: he said at the Nebraska Athletic there at the TRUV Alberts,

3075
02:24:50,040 --> 02:24:53,279
Speaker 2: his sudden decision to take the same job at Texas

3076
02:24:53,320 --> 02:24:57,039
Speaker 2: A and M obviously was disappointing, and he implored get this,

3077
02:24:57,360 --> 02:25:00,720
Speaker 2: The governor of the state of Nebraska implored the university's

3078
02:25:00,959 --> 02:25:04,039
Speaker 2: Board of Regions the other day to act quickly to

3079
02:25:04,120 --> 02:25:07,360
Speaker 2: fill vacant leadership positions. That's big that the governor's getting

3080
02:25:07,400 --> 02:25:10,440
Speaker 2: involved with the football program. Why wouldn't it Because he's

3081
02:25:10,480 --> 02:25:13,560
Speaker 2: a former regent in Nebraska and he played football for

3082
02:25:13,600 --> 02:25:16,840
Speaker 2: the Cornersters from seventy six to seventy eight. He issued

3083
02:25:16,879 --> 02:25:19,960
Speaker 2: for a call for action less than twenty four hours

3084
02:25:20,200 --> 02:25:22,959
Speaker 2: after the Alberts announcement going to Texas A and M.

3085
02:25:23,120 --> 02:25:25,520
Speaker 2: That's pretty big. Get the governor involved. I mean, I

3086
02:25:25,560 --> 02:25:29,520
Speaker 2: remember years ago when Kentucky and Louisville would not play

3087
02:25:29,560 --> 02:25:32,160
Speaker 2: each other in basketball, would not play each other in

3088
02:25:32,200 --> 02:25:36,920
Speaker 2: basketball or in football. The governor of the state or commonwealth,

3089
02:25:36,959 --> 02:25:39,959
Speaker 2: excuse me, the governor of the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky

3090
02:25:40,200 --> 02:25:43,720
Speaker 2: got involved and implored them, and now they play, Kentucky

3091
02:25:43,760 --> 02:25:46,480
Speaker 2: and Louisville play. It's amazing. I mean, you get you know,

3092
02:25:46,560 --> 02:25:48,840
Speaker 2: sports is important, right Buck, I mean you got to

3093
02:25:48,840 --> 02:25:50,640
Speaker 2: go a way up to the governor to get things

3094
02:25:50,640 --> 02:25:52,920
Speaker 2: done sometimes in the world of sports.

3095
02:25:53,600 --> 02:25:56,400
Speaker 4: Well, the word of college athletics in particularly because it's

3096
02:25:56,440 --> 02:26:00,760
Speaker 4: such a huge economic driver. You think about the majority

3097
02:26:00,800 --> 02:26:03,600
Speaker 4: of these public institutions, like all these guys are state employees,

3098
02:26:03,640 --> 02:26:06,280
Speaker 4: and they have a huge impact on the economy. It's

3099
02:26:06,320 --> 02:26:09,720
Speaker 4: in the best interests of the politicians in those areas

3100
02:26:09,720 --> 02:26:12,600
Speaker 4: to make sure that they have the best and brightest

3101
02:26:12,640 --> 02:26:15,000
Speaker 4: in those fields because it changes the dynamic when it

3102
02:26:15,000 --> 02:26:15,720
Speaker 4: comes to the money.

3103
02:26:16,200 --> 02:26:17,959
Speaker 2: There you go, Okay, I talked about an end of

3104
02:26:17,959 --> 02:26:21,640
Speaker 2: a tradition. This is big. I mean really, and surely

3105
02:26:21,680 --> 02:26:24,200
Speaker 2: you meditate the Kleenex out for this. You may very

3106
02:26:24,200 --> 02:26:27,240
Speaker 2: well be upset now for more than a quarter century,

3107
02:26:27,760 --> 02:26:32,280
Speaker 2: fans of the Philadelphia Phillies considered dollar hot Dog Night

3108
02:26:32,760 --> 02:26:36,720
Speaker 2: among the best ballpark promotions for the entire summer. But

3109
02:26:36,879 --> 02:26:42,400
Speaker 2: now the Phillies decided no more the dog days of April,

3110
02:26:42,840 --> 02:26:45,520
Speaker 2: when the weather is cold of Philadelphia and the wieners

3111
02:26:45,560 --> 02:26:49,480
Speaker 2: are a steel, They're going, going gone. It's all over.

3112
02:26:49,760 --> 02:26:53,760
Speaker 2: The Philadelphia Phillies officially ended the popular promotion just the

3113
02:26:53,800 --> 02:26:57,240
Speaker 2: other day, and they replaced dollar hot dogs on selected

3114
02:26:57,320 --> 02:27:00,440
Speaker 2: dates with a two for one deal at two games

3115
02:27:00,440 --> 02:27:04,280
Speaker 2: in the month of April at their Citizens Bank Baseball Park. Now,

3116
02:27:04,879 --> 02:27:07,240
Speaker 2: the teak out with a statement and said the change

3117
02:27:07,280 --> 02:27:11,480
Speaker 2: was made quote based on the organization's ongoing commitment to

3118
02:27:11,560 --> 02:27:15,280
Speaker 2: provide a positive experience for all fans in attendance. Well

3119
02:27:15,320 --> 02:27:18,920
Speaker 2: you know what what wasn't positive about Dollar Dog Night. Well,

3120
02:27:18,920 --> 02:27:23,160
Speaker 2: I'll tell you the fans were on with projectile Frankfurter

3121
02:27:23,320 --> 02:27:27,480
Speaker 2: is and someone ruly Philadelphia fans began chucking their favorite

3122
02:27:28,040 --> 02:27:31,480
Speaker 2: meat during the game last year, and the hot dogs

3123
02:27:31,520 --> 02:27:34,680
Speaker 2: were soaring like cans of corn throughout the stands on

3124
02:27:34,720 --> 02:27:38,200
Speaker 2: the field. It's unbelievable. Really. The demand for the discount

3125
02:27:38,200 --> 02:27:41,920
Speaker 2: hot dogs also led to clogged lanes if not. Clogged

3126
02:27:42,000 --> 02:27:45,480
Speaker 2: arteries on the concourse and the cramped spaces led to

3127
02:27:45,560 --> 02:27:48,879
Speaker 2: security and safety concerns. It is a shame, you know,

3128
02:27:48,920 --> 02:27:51,320
Speaker 2: it's a shame. Think about that hot dog night. The

3129
02:27:51,400 --> 02:27:54,800
Speaker 2: dollar hot dog are gone. That's finished. And now I

3130
02:27:54,879 --> 02:27:57,680
Speaker 2: remember back as a kid, they used to have bat Day.

3131
02:27:57,760 --> 02:28:00,640
Speaker 2: Remember bat day at baseball games. They don't have that

3132
02:28:00,680 --> 02:28:02,920
Speaker 2: anymore because they're people get a hit over the head

3133
02:28:02,920 --> 02:28:06,600
Speaker 2: with a baseball bat. What has happened? Is it the alcohol?

3134
02:28:06,720 --> 02:28:09,120
Speaker 2: The unruly? I don't get it. Bat Day was a

3135
02:28:09,120 --> 02:28:11,280
Speaker 2: big day when I was a kid. You go out there,

3136
02:28:11,280 --> 02:28:13,320
Speaker 2: you get a baseball bat, you come home. Then after

3137
02:28:13,360 --> 02:28:15,680
Speaker 2: a while, when there was so much unruliness, they gave

3138
02:28:15,720 --> 02:28:17,840
Speaker 2: the bat to you on the way out of the ballpark.

3139
02:28:18,000 --> 02:28:20,520
Speaker 2: Now they don't even have it at all. It's gone finished.

3140
02:28:20,560 --> 02:28:23,240
Speaker 2: No more bad day. What's happening? Bucket, Come on, there's

3141
02:28:23,240 --> 02:28:25,400
Speaker 2: gotta be a reason for this. I want bat Day

3142
02:28:25,400 --> 02:28:28,360
Speaker 2: and a dollar hot dog night back. I want them back.

3143
02:28:29,520 --> 02:28:31,960
Speaker 4: Well, if fans can behave and you can bring those

3144
02:28:31,959 --> 02:28:34,960
Speaker 4: things back. But if you're having a string of bad behavior,

3145
02:28:35,480 --> 02:28:37,560
Speaker 4: you can't do those things. If you're talking about people

3146
02:28:37,560 --> 02:28:40,360
Speaker 4: slinging meat all across the stands and then you have

3147
02:28:40,440 --> 02:28:43,680
Speaker 4: people whipping each other with bats. You can't do it.

3148
02:28:43,760 --> 02:28:45,360
Speaker 4: You don't want to be responsible for that.

3149
02:28:45,680 --> 02:28:47,160
Speaker 2: But maybe that's only Philadelphia.

3150
02:28:48,200 --> 02:28:48,680
Speaker 3: No, it's not.

3151
02:28:48,800 --> 02:28:50,520
Speaker 4: I mean I think I think you're seeing a changing

3152
02:28:50,600 --> 02:28:55,240
Speaker 4: dynamic with fans becoming increasingly more hostile, with players, players

3153
02:28:55,240 --> 02:28:56,520
Speaker 4: pointing out fans getting them.

3154
02:28:56,480 --> 02:28:58,320
Speaker 3: Kicked out for the things that they say.

3155
02:28:58,360 --> 02:29:01,680
Speaker 4: I think everybody's behavior has been on edge, and part

3156
02:29:01,720 --> 02:29:04,800
Speaker 4: of that is the changing culture that we live in

3157
02:29:04,879 --> 02:29:07,160
Speaker 4: has kind of made it acceptable where people act like

3158
02:29:07,160 --> 02:29:09,920
Speaker 4: that when they're out and about. But you know, when

3159
02:29:09,920 --> 02:29:12,560
Speaker 4: you act like that, like their consequences. You can't do

3160
02:29:12,600 --> 02:29:15,360
Speaker 4: certain things because teams don't want to be liable for

3161
02:29:15,560 --> 02:29:17,440
Speaker 4: the bad stuff that could happen when you allow that

3162
02:29:18,000 --> 02:29:18,720
Speaker 4: behavior to go on.

3163
02:29:19,040 --> 02:29:20,720
Speaker 2: Well, I will tee you this much. I don't feel

3164
02:29:20,720 --> 02:29:22,840
Speaker 2: real comfortable going to a baseball game and almost getting

3165
02:29:22,840 --> 02:29:25,800
Speaker 2: strip search getting into the ballpark. Really, I mean really,

3166
02:29:25,840 --> 02:29:28,040
Speaker 2: you know, there was a time where people come there

3167
02:29:28,080 --> 02:29:30,520
Speaker 2: like with like an overnight bag. You know, they bring

3168
02:29:30,560 --> 02:29:33,640
Speaker 2: like hot dough, they bring their own sandwiches, food, drink,

3169
02:29:33,720 --> 02:29:35,480
Speaker 2: whatever it may be. You can't bring anything in there

3170
02:29:35,520 --> 02:29:37,600
Speaker 2: right now. You can't even bring an umbrella to a

3171
02:29:37,600 --> 02:29:40,520
Speaker 2: baseball game for fear you're gonna hit somebody with the umbrella.

3172
02:29:40,600 --> 02:29:42,119
Speaker 2: You got to check it out at the door, whatever

3173
02:29:42,160 --> 02:29:43,920
Speaker 2: it may be, at the gate. But you come into

3174
02:29:43,920 --> 02:29:45,840
Speaker 2: a baseball game right now, you know you got to

3175
02:29:45,840 --> 02:29:47,680
Speaker 2: put your hands over your head and then they've got

3176
02:29:47,680 --> 02:29:50,320
Speaker 2: the wand all over you. It's said, it really is said,

3177
02:29:50,440 --> 02:29:53,400
Speaker 2: what they're doing at sporting events. And I guess you're right,

3178
02:29:53,400 --> 02:29:56,280
Speaker 2: the unruly fans are things may be happening at ballgames,

3179
02:29:56,280 --> 02:29:59,400
Speaker 2: but you know, it's just an uneasy feeling when you

3180
02:29:59,440 --> 02:30:01,520
Speaker 2: get to the ball park and next thing you know,

3181
02:30:01,720 --> 02:30:03,760
Speaker 2: take your watch off, take your ring out. But you

3182
02:30:03,840 --> 02:30:06,000
Speaker 2: got any keys, put them out there, put your wallet

3183
02:30:06,000 --> 02:30:08,920
Speaker 2: out there. They put it on the revolving conveyor belt,

3184
02:30:08,920 --> 02:30:12,160
Speaker 2: if you will, and they gut you through the tunnel there,

3185
02:30:12,320 --> 02:30:13,760
Speaker 2: and if the BEPA goes up, you got to go

3186
02:30:13,800 --> 02:30:15,360
Speaker 2: back and go through it again. It's like getting on

3187
02:30:15,400 --> 02:30:19,400
Speaker 2: a plane. It's unbelievable. Really, it's just it's sad. I mean,

3188
02:30:19,760 --> 02:30:21,879
Speaker 2: and again I don't know when and where and why

3189
02:30:21,920 --> 02:30:24,600
Speaker 2: it started, but it's just a it's not a good feeling,

3190
02:30:24,640 --> 02:30:26,520
Speaker 2: and it's not good. I mean, you want to go

3191
02:30:26,560 --> 02:30:28,640
Speaker 2: there and have fun, and you're afraid something may happen

3192
02:30:28,840 --> 02:30:30,879
Speaker 2: at a ball game, and hopefully it will never happen.

3193
02:30:30,920 --> 02:30:34,039
Speaker 2: But I just don't like happening things like that. Going

3194
02:30:34,040 --> 02:30:37,160
Speaker 2: to a baseball game shouldn't happen. Just not good. I

3195
02:30:37,160 --> 02:30:40,880
Speaker 2: don't get it. What about Carolina and then you won't

3196
02:30:40,879 --> 02:30:41,360
Speaker 2: see to have.

3197
02:30:41,360 --> 02:30:44,800
Speaker 4: That too, I mean, no, you can't have like those

3198
02:30:44,840 --> 02:30:47,640
Speaker 4: things like. So the thing is, you have this heavy

3199
02:30:47,680 --> 02:30:50,520
Speaker 4: security pad down for the longest time. I don't think

3200
02:30:50,600 --> 02:30:53,440
Speaker 4: North Carolina will that you have. Man, I don't even

3201
02:30:53,480 --> 02:30:55,160
Speaker 4: know if you could drink beer and stuff at those

3202
02:30:55,200 --> 02:30:58,080
Speaker 4: games because you're trying to keep all the stuff down. Yeah,

3203
02:30:58,160 --> 02:31:01,800
Speaker 4: it was, it's a little different. It definitely is not

3204
02:31:03,320 --> 02:31:04,840
Speaker 4: how it used to be. But I think you're trying

3205
02:31:04,879 --> 02:31:06,800
Speaker 4: to protect I mean you're trying to guard against like

3206
02:31:07,600 --> 02:31:11,280
Speaker 4: poor behavior from fans.

3207
02:31:10,600 --> 02:31:12,080
Speaker 3: That's just what it is.

3208
02:31:12,280 --> 02:31:14,520
Speaker 4: Fans have to learn how to behave like if they

3209
02:31:14,520 --> 02:31:17,240
Speaker 4: behave with then you have these issues. But a lot

3210
02:31:17,280 --> 02:31:20,360
Speaker 4: of that is a big part of why you have

3211
02:31:20,440 --> 02:31:27,119
Speaker 4: to impose these actions to protect fans from each other.

3212
02:31:27,480 --> 02:31:28,760
Speaker 2: I'll tell you a funny story. If you're going to

3213
02:31:28,840 --> 02:31:30,480
Speaker 2: a Cincinati Bengal game. I don't know if they still have.

3214
02:31:30,560 --> 02:31:32,000
Speaker 2: I know the last time I went to a game,

3215
02:31:32,240 --> 02:31:34,400
Speaker 2: I think about a year or so ago. On the

3216
02:31:34,440 --> 02:31:37,040
Speaker 2: electric school board, that have what they call a jerk line.

3217
02:31:37,160 --> 02:31:39,080
Speaker 2: If you're sitting next to someone who's bothering you and

3218
02:31:39,120 --> 02:31:41,320
Speaker 2: the guys that could jerk, there's a special phone number

3219
02:31:41,360 --> 02:31:43,879
Speaker 2: to call and they'll have a security guard come down

3220
02:31:43,879 --> 02:31:46,920
Speaker 2: to your section and maybe it's kind of ended problem

3221
02:31:47,080 --> 02:31:49,640
Speaker 2: or remove the jerk the jerk line. I mean, you

3222
02:31:49,879 --> 02:31:52,360
Speaker 2: think about that. When you played, there was no such

3223
02:31:52,360 --> 02:31:54,400
Speaker 2: thing as a jerk line. Now I've got jerk lines

3224
02:31:54,600 --> 02:31:57,200
Speaker 2: at games. I don't get it. And maybe gambling got

3225
02:31:57,200 --> 02:31:59,520
Speaker 2: something to do with that. Really, you know, people get upset,

3226
02:31:59,560 --> 02:32:01,560
Speaker 2: they have a lot of money on the game, and

3227
02:32:01,800 --> 02:32:05,040
Speaker 2: you know the alcohol combined with the gambling. I don't

3228
02:32:05,040 --> 02:32:06,880
Speaker 2: know what the answer is. But you know when you

3229
02:32:06,959 --> 02:32:09,800
Speaker 2: tell somebody there's a jerk line to call, that's said,

3230
02:32:09,959 --> 02:32:11,840
Speaker 2: it really is. But we move on. I got some

3231
02:32:11,879 --> 02:32:16,240
Speaker 2: positive news for you now. Winthrop University, located in rock Hill,

3232
02:32:16,320 --> 02:32:21,440
Speaker 2: South Carolina, recently awarded scholarships to appear of extremely talented

3233
02:32:21,680 --> 02:32:24,000
Speaker 2: high school. You want to take a guess what the

3234
02:32:24,040 --> 02:32:32,279
Speaker 2: sport was cornhole? Cornhole cornhole players, Yes, college scholarships for cornhole,

3235
02:32:32,520 --> 02:32:35,280
Speaker 2: the game you play with a cold beer on the

3236
02:32:35,280 --> 02:32:39,720
Speaker 2: fourth of July. How's that cornhole? Okay? The bean bag

3237
02:32:39,879 --> 02:32:45,760
Speaker 2: toss target game played in various bars tailgate parties, exploded

3238
02:32:45,800 --> 02:32:49,720
Speaker 2: into a legitimate competitive sport with professional players, and obviously

3239
02:32:49,840 --> 02:32:52,240
Speaker 2: you could see it on TV on the Full Letter Network. Okay,

3240
02:32:52,400 --> 02:32:55,199
Speaker 2: they have a coach now, but it's not an NCAA

3241
02:32:55,320 --> 02:32:57,760
Speaker 2: sport and there's no current efforts to make it when

3242
02:32:57,800 --> 02:33:01,199
Speaker 2: that's what I'm told. But cornhole, which has its annual

3243
02:33:01,400 --> 02:33:05,200
Speaker 2: collegiate championship in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, made a lot

3244
02:33:05,200 --> 02:33:07,520
Speaker 2: of regional sense for these two kids. And they go

3245
02:33:07,560 --> 02:33:10,320
Speaker 2: to Winthrope, which is a Division one school which doesn't

3246
02:33:10,320 --> 02:33:13,800
Speaker 2: have football, has already made a major investment in video

3247
02:33:13,879 --> 02:33:17,760
Speaker 2: gaming ET sports. Where is now a national power in esports?

3248
02:33:17,920 --> 02:33:20,280
Speaker 2: How do you like that? So cornhole? If you're a

3249
02:33:20,320 --> 02:33:23,959
Speaker 2: cornhole player, all right, I know there's no NCAA sport

3250
02:33:24,080 --> 02:33:28,760
Speaker 2: for that, But Winthrop University and rock Hill, South Carolina

3251
02:33:28,920 --> 02:33:32,520
Speaker 2: is giving scholarships in cornhole, and the athletic director's name

3252
02:33:32,600 --> 02:33:35,520
Speaker 2: is Chuck ray r e Y. You could write to

3253
02:33:35,640 --> 02:33:39,160
Speaker 2: Chuck Ray, if you're an outstanding cornhole player? Have you

3254
02:33:39,160 --> 02:33:41,800
Speaker 2: ever played the game of cornhole? Bucky?

3255
02:33:42,959 --> 02:33:46,920
Speaker 4: I have as much like horseshoes, but right, right, right, yeah,

3256
02:33:46,959 --> 02:33:48,880
Speaker 4: so yeah, I've played it before.

3257
02:33:49,360 --> 02:33:53,160
Speaker 2: Unbelievable. But these kids they said that, you know, really,

3258
02:33:53,200 --> 02:33:55,519
Speaker 2: they're not local kids. They're from the state of Colorado,

3259
02:33:55,959 --> 02:33:59,240
Speaker 2: and they're they're high level players in the game of cornhole.

3260
02:33:59,440 --> 02:34:02,359
Speaker 2: I guess. And they got this coach now, Dusty Thompson

3261
02:34:02,720 --> 02:34:06,680
Speaker 2: at Rockhill in Winthrop, and he's going to get them

3262
02:34:06,680 --> 02:34:09,160
Speaker 2: and go out recruiting for players, and I guess. You

3263
02:34:09,200 --> 02:34:11,360
Speaker 2: know what, when you think about it, you know, I

3264
02:34:11,360 --> 02:34:14,520
Speaker 2: think it's great. I think every kid who goes to

3265
02:34:14,720 --> 02:34:19,279
Speaker 2: a college or university should be exposed to some extracurricular activity.

3266
02:34:19,480 --> 02:34:21,160
Speaker 2: And you may not be a great athlete. You may

3267
02:34:21,160 --> 02:34:23,480
Speaker 2: not be a football or basketball player. You know, maybe

3268
02:34:23,520 --> 02:34:25,400
Speaker 2: you're not fast enough to run on the track or

3269
02:34:25,440 --> 02:34:28,520
Speaker 2: cross country team, but there's got to be some experience

3270
02:34:28,560 --> 02:34:33,440
Speaker 2: that you could learn from and do as something that

3271
02:34:33,520 --> 02:34:36,440
Speaker 2: will carry you on after you graduate school. I think

3272
02:34:36,440 --> 02:34:39,720
Speaker 2: it's great. So my hat's off to Winthrop University in

3273
02:34:39,800 --> 02:34:42,800
Speaker 2: rock Hill, South Carolina for the Cornhole Scholarship how do.

3274
02:34:42,760 --> 02:34:43,400
Speaker 3: You like that?

3275
02:34:43,080 --> 02:34:48,160
Speaker 2: That's great? All right, Bucky Brooks, Miss Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman,

3289
02:35:24,879 --> 02:35:27,560
Speaker 2: ballparks and arenas all over the country. If you go

3290
02:35:27,640 --> 02:35:30,720
Speaker 2: to an RAMS football game, you have to go or

3291
02:35:30,760 --> 02:35:33,320
Speaker 2: a concert, I understand you have to go with a

3292
02:35:33,400 --> 02:35:38,119
Speaker 2: see through plastic bags has tob see through. It's amazing,

3293
02:35:38,200 --> 02:35:41,320
Speaker 2: really what's happening right now for safety factors, just to

3294
02:35:41,720 --> 02:35:46,640
Speaker 2: alleviate problems at arenas and Ballpark's football stadium all over

3295
02:35:46,680 --> 02:35:49,040
Speaker 2: the country. It's said, it really is following us at

3296
02:35:49,040 --> 02:35:51,080
Speaker 2: the top of the hour. That'll be about eleven minutes

3297
02:35:51,080 --> 02:35:54,920
Speaker 2: from now. Great trio Brian No, my good friend Jeff Schwartz,

3298
02:35:54,959 --> 02:35:58,039
Speaker 2: the author of Football Player, and Bill Krakenberger. They'll take

3299
02:35:58,080 --> 02:36:00,760
Speaker 2: you ten am Eastern, top the hour right here on

3300
02:36:00,800 --> 02:36:04,160
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. But I talk about sportsmanship right here, Buck,

3301
02:36:04,200 --> 02:36:09,920
Speaker 2: how's this? We have a Division three basketball coach Manhattanville College,

3302
02:36:10,120 --> 02:36:15,160
Speaker 2: Division three, the men's coach Chris Alessi. He had a

3303
02:36:15,160 --> 02:36:19,760
Speaker 2: great season this year, finished eighteen and ten. But this guy,

3304
02:36:20,240 --> 02:36:25,199
Speaker 2: coach Alessi, dresses twenty one guys on the bench for games.

3305
02:36:25,600 --> 02:36:28,280
Speaker 2: And I asked, how comes so many? He says, I

3306
02:36:28,400 --> 02:36:32,080
Speaker 2: refuse to cut anybody. You put in the effort, you

3307
02:36:32,200 --> 02:36:34,920
Speaker 2: find the time, you make the team. How do you

3308
02:36:35,040 --> 02:36:37,360
Speaker 2: like that? How many coaches are like that? Now? I

3309
02:36:37,360 --> 02:36:38,959
Speaker 2: guess you can't afford to do that on the D

3310
02:36:39,080 --> 02:36:41,800
Speaker 2: one level, But the Division three, what there's no scholarships

3311
02:36:41,879 --> 02:36:43,760
Speaker 2: you could do that. I love that. You know, you

3312
02:36:43,800 --> 02:36:45,680
Speaker 2: put in the time, you make the effort, show off

3313
02:36:45,720 --> 02:36:47,920
Speaker 2: the practice, you're on the team, you got a uniform.

3314
02:36:48,080 --> 02:36:50,480
Speaker 2: I love that and you're a coach, would you have

3315
02:36:50,560 --> 02:36:52,000
Speaker 2: the same philosophy as that buck.

3316
02:36:54,200 --> 02:36:54,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

3317
02:36:54,480 --> 02:36:56,720
Speaker 4: I mean, like I like, the more you play, the

3318
02:36:56,720 --> 02:36:59,080
Speaker 4: more players you played, the better the morale is on

3319
02:36:59,120 --> 02:37:01,360
Speaker 4: the team. So if there's a way where you can

3320
02:37:01,400 --> 02:37:04,039
Speaker 4: get as many guys on the floor on the field

3321
02:37:04,400 --> 02:37:06,480
Speaker 4: as possible, yeah, you want to be able to do it.

3322
02:37:06,520 --> 02:37:08,840
Speaker 4: But those guys have to understand it's just not a

3323
02:37:08,920 --> 02:37:12,119
Speaker 4: charity situation. You have to be good enough to carve

3324
02:37:12,160 --> 02:37:14,000
Speaker 4: out a role where you can be productive and a

3325
02:37:14,000 --> 02:37:16,520
Speaker 4: contributing member of the team. But if you can do it,

3326
02:37:16,520 --> 02:37:18,760
Speaker 4: it's only positive. It's never no negatives to it.

3327
02:37:19,200 --> 02:37:21,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you talk about sportsmanship. First of all, I

3328
02:37:21,280 --> 02:37:23,440
Speaker 2: think that if you're trying out for the team, you

3329
02:37:23,520 --> 02:37:25,520
Speaker 2: feel in your own heart of hearts you have enough

3330
02:37:25,520 --> 02:37:27,640
Speaker 2: talent to make the team. So I don't think that'll

3331
02:37:27,680 --> 02:37:29,600
Speaker 2: be a problem right there. But you know, I read

3332
02:37:29,640 --> 02:37:31,840
Speaker 2: this story and the thing that comes to mind is

3333
02:37:31,879 --> 02:37:35,800
Speaker 2: like the situation like when the Yukon women's basketball will

3334
02:37:35,840 --> 02:37:38,000
Speaker 2: roll up the score and they'll beat an opponent by

3335
02:37:38,040 --> 02:37:40,440
Speaker 2: forty fifty sixty points and they won't even clear the

3336
02:37:40,440 --> 02:37:42,800
Speaker 2: benchers to got their starting five in there. That to

3337
02:37:42,840 --> 02:37:46,600
Speaker 2: me is like an unsportsmanship, putting your foot on the

3338
02:37:46,600 --> 02:37:49,400
Speaker 2: guy's throat and just letting it roll. You got to

3339
02:37:49,440 --> 02:37:52,520
Speaker 2: stop that. And this is just a nice little story here,

3340
02:37:52,680 --> 02:37:55,240
Speaker 2: which you don't hear enough of in the world of sports,

3341
02:37:55,280 --> 02:37:57,879
Speaker 2: at least in collegiate sports. I don't know why they

3342
02:37:57,920 --> 02:38:00,520
Speaker 2: continue to roll up those scores. I don't know what proves.

3343
02:38:00,680 --> 02:38:02,959
Speaker 2: I just don't get it. But you made a great point.

3344
02:38:03,120 --> 02:38:05,640
Speaker 2: I mentioned this, I think to you a while back.

3345
02:38:05,959 --> 02:38:09,000
Speaker 2: I saw Cincinnati play Penn State and football way back

3346
02:38:09,400 --> 02:38:12,400
Speaker 2: fifteen to twenty years ago, when Joe Peturna was coaching,

3347
02:38:12,840 --> 02:38:16,000
Speaker 2: and I think Penn State won like sixty one zip,

3348
02:38:16,200 --> 02:38:17,840
Speaker 2: and they asked Paturna at the end of the game,

3349
02:38:18,200 --> 02:38:20,440
Speaker 2: you know, why would you roll up the score? He says, Look,

3350
02:38:20,600 --> 02:38:23,040
Speaker 2: I have my third team in there, and they bust

3351
02:38:23,080 --> 02:38:25,520
Speaker 2: their button practice, and when they get a chance to

3352
02:38:25,560 --> 02:38:28,119
Speaker 2: play in the game, it's like a snowball rolling downhill.

3353
02:38:28,160 --> 02:38:30,440
Speaker 2: You can't stop it. They want to prove to everybody

3354
02:38:30,480 --> 02:38:33,000
Speaker 2: and my coaching staff as well, that they could play too.

3355
02:38:33,160 --> 02:38:36,440
Speaker 2: So it's tough. It's but at least he emptied the bench.

3356
02:38:36,680 --> 02:38:38,560
Speaker 2: Some of these coaches don't even then empty the bench.

3357
02:38:40,120 --> 02:38:43,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean the sportsmanship is at a weird spot

3358
02:38:43,080 --> 02:38:45,760
Speaker 4: right now. Like so it's you know, do you do

3359
02:38:45,840 --> 02:38:47,560
Speaker 4: you run it up? Do you keep playing? Do you

3360
02:38:47,640 --> 02:38:49,520
Speaker 4: let your back us play? Do you let them play

3361
02:38:49,520 --> 02:38:53,600
Speaker 4: without restriction, meaning you let them run the offense as

3362
02:38:53,600 --> 02:38:56,560
Speaker 4: it has been installed and allowed them to get experience?

3363
02:38:56,640 --> 02:38:58,120
Speaker 4: Do it? Or do you want them just kind of

3364
02:38:58,160 --> 02:39:01,160
Speaker 4: dribble out the shod clock and play. I think some

3365
02:39:01,240 --> 02:39:02,720
Speaker 4: of it is you have to do us in the

3366
02:39:02,720 --> 02:39:04,879
Speaker 4: best interest of your own program, and you can't coach

3367
02:39:04,959 --> 02:39:06,160
Speaker 4: or worry about the other team.

3368
02:39:06,720 --> 02:39:07,840
Speaker 3: The other team made me bad.

3369
02:39:07,840 --> 02:39:09,600
Speaker 4: But if you establish it, this is how we played,

3370
02:39:09,600 --> 02:39:12,320
Speaker 4: just how we played with anybody and everybody, whether we're

3371
02:39:12,440 --> 02:39:16,800
Speaker 4: up ten down ten, our goal is the feature a

3372
02:39:16,840 --> 02:39:18,840
Speaker 4: bunch of horror playing players making it happen.

3373
02:39:19,400 --> 02:39:21,440
Speaker 2: There you go. I have one more story for you,

3374
02:39:22,640 --> 02:39:25,920
Speaker 2: a little bit, A little bit of that. The California

3375
02:39:26,000 --> 02:39:29,199
Speaker 2: Highway Patrol they said there was a brief traffic delay

3376
02:39:29,240 --> 02:39:33,080
Speaker 2: on a highway when a pickup truck spilled hundreds of

3377
02:39:33,200 --> 02:39:37,360
Speaker 2: rolls of toilet paper on the roadway. The CHP the

3378
02:39:37,400 --> 02:39:41,440
Speaker 2: California Highway Patrol said three boxes of toilet paper fell

3379
02:39:41,480 --> 02:39:44,080
Speaker 2: from the back of the ford f three point fifty

3380
02:39:44,360 --> 02:39:48,240
Speaker 2: on the Interstate five Freeway near cal Grove Boulevard, and

3381
02:39:48,320 --> 02:39:52,119
Speaker 2: said that Clarita just the other day, and footage from

3382
02:39:52,160 --> 02:39:56,199
Speaker 2: the scene shows traffic was backed up as CHP offices

3383
02:39:56,520 --> 02:40:01,000
Speaker 2: throw rolls of toilet paper over the cement barrier separating

3384
02:40:01,040 --> 02:40:04,040
Speaker 2: the roadway from a construction site. And you could say,

3385
02:40:04,040 --> 02:40:06,520
Speaker 2: these guys must have really been full of it. How

3386
02:40:06,560 --> 02:40:08,879
Speaker 2: do you like that? A lot of toilet paper on

3387
02:40:08,920 --> 02:40:09,400
Speaker 2: the highway.

3388
02:40:10,160 --> 02:40:11,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of toilet paper on the highway not

3389
02:40:11,879 --> 02:40:12,960
Speaker 4: too far from where I'm at.

3390
02:40:13,040 --> 02:40:15,520
Speaker 2: But really, Oh, so you heard it? Did you see

3391
02:40:15,520 --> 02:40:16,040
Speaker 2: it on TV?

3392
02:40:17,720 --> 02:40:20,440
Speaker 3: On TV? Just just hearing about it. That's crazy, though.

3393
02:40:20,680 --> 02:40:23,640
Speaker 2: It really is. It's crazy, it really is. But the

3394
02:40:23,840 --> 02:40:27,520
Speaker 2: Massachusetts libraries allowing patrons with lost or damaged items to

3395
02:40:27,560 --> 02:40:31,080
Speaker 2: pay their fees with an unusual form of currency cat pictures.

3396
02:40:31,240 --> 02:40:33,600
Speaker 2: How do you like that? And that'll do it all right?
