Time for the show. Here's what we're not 27 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: discussing on today's show. Sue Bird arguably the goat. I'm 28 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 2: not a WNBA historian the way I am NBA historian. 29 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 2: But Diana Trozzi's got a case. Sue Byrd obviously is 30 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 2: a case. Cynthia Cooper, I don't think she has a case, 31 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: but she didn't win. Like the first four titles, Sue 32 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: Bird retires from the WNBA. Luca Uh one of my 33 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 2: two favorite sons, Luca dropping forty seven on France. Luca 34 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: was asked the day before who do you think is 35 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: going to score the most points in EuroBasket? He was 36 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: like Jiannis and they're like why, He's like, because he's Yiannis. 37 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: And then Luca dropped forty seven, which is most points 38 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 2: anyone has scored in euro basket in sixty five years, 39 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 2: second most points ever. 40 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, he's the greatest. 41 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 2: Also, people you know what I'm not even gonna get 42 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 2: into the Yiannis commentary from the week. And Albert Pooholtz, 43 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: who looked cooked the last few years, is now the 44 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 2: most devastating hitter in baseball. If he's facing a left 45 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: handed pitcher, he might get to seven hundred home runs. 46 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: It is a captivating story, an absolutely captivating story from 47 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 2: Maple Woods Community College, right in the outskirts of Kansas City. 48 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: That's where Woods. You know, maple Woods, Royal Woods is 49 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: the apartment Royal Woods was the apartments you used to 50 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 2: live in a long time ago. By the way, any 51 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 2: of our Kansas City listeners, that's true story. And if 52 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 2: you know Royal Woods in google Royal Woods. That's why 53 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 2: when Demanse says he got it from the dirt, that's 54 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: what he's talking about. But Albert Boolts not really a 55 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: Kansaity legend, but I claim him because he went to 56 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 2: Maplewood's community college. All right, what I know we're starting 57 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 2: with because football starts. 58 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 3: At day football is officially back. We're dropping the show 59 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 3: before Rams Bills. Yeh, super Bowl champs are underdogs at home? Yes, 60 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: do you feel strongly enough about this game to pick 61 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 3: it in our first gambling show. 62 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: Okay, so tomorrow we debut the gambling Show. We're actually 63 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: recording that in about an hour and spoiler alert for that. Yes, 64 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: I do, and I'm picking the Rams. They are home underdogs. 65 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: I want to use this so ramslus two and a 66 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 2: half of my pick. I don't think the Rams went 67 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,799 Speaker 2: out right. It wouldn't be shocking if the Bills won. 68 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: The Bills are really good. But I want to use 69 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 2: this time to talk about what's happening with the Buffalo 70 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: Bills right now, because it is baffling to me. I 71 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: totally understand why some people would pick the Bills to 72 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: win the Super Bowl. I understand why people would pick 73 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 2: Josh Allen to win League MVP. If you know, if 74 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: you say I think the Bills are the best team 75 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 2: in the AFC, you have a very reasonable stance for that. 76 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: They had a very good defense last year. I think 77 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 2: it was a little They had the number one defensive 78 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 2: football last year, but by numbers, not by eye tests. 79 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: They had nine of their eleven wins were against some 80 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: of the worst quarterbacks in the league, but still a 81 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: good defense. Some people think Josh Allen's the best quarterback 82 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: in football. Everyone, even I agree, he's one of the 83 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 2: five best quarterbacks in football. They have Stefan Diggs, like 84 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 2: they have Gabe Davis. They have really good players. My 85 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 2: issue is they are being treated like the seven Patriots. 86 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: They are the they are the overwhelming super Bowl favorite. 87 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: One of the shows on NFL Network, five hosts they 88 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: gave their Super Bowl picks. All five hosts had the Bulls, 89 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: the Bulls, the Bills going to and winning the Super Bowl. 90 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: They are. They are favorites in Los Angeles. So if 91 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 2: you're not a big gambler, whatever the points spread is, 92 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: you got to keep in mind the home team is 93 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 2: getting an extra laying an extra three points. So what 94 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: And so the Bills being two and a half point 95 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: favorites in LA means if they were playing the Rams 96 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: on a neutral site, they'd be around five and a 97 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 2: half point favorites, right, And if they were playing LA 98 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 2: in Buffalo, they'd be eight and a half point favorites. 99 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: It's insanity and so disrespectful. It's well, it's not just 100 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 2: it's not so much about disrespect for the Rams as 101 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 2: much as it as it is Vegas. The general public 102 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 2: and the media look at the Bills as some like 103 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 2: it's the Bills and everyone else they're treating it like 104 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 2: it's the Warriors. In twenty seventeen, it just came off 105 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl right as opposed. And I just want 106 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 2: to give people the history here. Two years ago, the 107 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: Bills were the two seed. They made the AFC Championship Game. 108 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 2: They won twelve games, they lost to the Chiefs in Arrowhead. 109 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 2: Last year, the Bills were the three reseed. They won 110 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 2: eleven games, They made the Divisional round and lost to 111 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 2: the Chiefs in Arrowhead. Now I understand it's devastating fashion 112 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 2: the way they lost. Easily could have won that game. 113 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 2: But for the it is the AFC is way too 114 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 2: deep of a conference for anyone to be the overwhelming favorite. 115 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 2: I'm not arguing the Chiefs should be the overwhelming favorite. 116 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: I do think they're the favorite. But if you came 117 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: at any time, you're on the side of the bracket 118 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,679 Speaker 2: in a conference where there could be a credible case 119 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: made for not two, not three, at least four and 120 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: maybe five teams to win the conference, because you could 121 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 2: make a case for the Bills, the Chiefs obviously, the 122 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: Bengals who did it last year, the Chargers, who might 123 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: have the most talented roster in football. Or the Ravens, 124 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 2: who were eight and three last year despite all the 125 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: injuries then Lamar got hurt season went til lost all 126 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: their secondary There's five teams that I believe could make 127 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl out of the AFC, and I'm not 128 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: even including the Broncos, who a lot of people like. 129 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: When the conference is that difficult. Nobody should be considered 130 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: this much of a juggernaut unless they have proven it 131 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 2: in years past. And here's my last issue for the 132 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 2: Bills this year. Even if they go to Los Angeles 133 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 2: tonight and by the time some of you watch or 134 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 2: see this, you know they've beaten the Rams by fourteen. 135 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 2: My concern for the Bills, in addition to losing Brian Dable, 136 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: their offensive coordinator, is very simple. There has to be 137 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: a psychological component. Two two years ago, they were this 138 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: close to the Super Bowl. They were up two scores 139 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 2: on the Chiefs in Arrowhead and then the Chiefs went 140 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 2: on a thirty eight to six run like a dominant 141 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: AAU basketball team and blew them out. Last year, going 142 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 2: into the year, the GM, the coach, the players said, 143 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 2: we are obsessed with Kansas City. We are building our 144 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 2: team to beat Kansas City, they go into Arrowhead, they 145 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: have a lead with thirteen seconds left, Yeah, and they 146 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: lose the game. So it's not about me being a 147 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: Chiefs fan. This is about psychology of sports. I don't 148 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: think the Bills are going to be fourteen and three, 149 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 2: but even if they are, there will still be a 150 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: hurdle for them. Of man, we've never beaten Mahomes in 151 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: a big spot, and so I just I think the 152 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: Bills are really good. I give him way more respect 153 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 2: to that game last year. I give Josh Allen tremendous respect. 154 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: I think them being two and a half point favorites 155 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 2: on the road against the defending Super Bowl champions is insane. 156 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 2: All right, next, all right? 157 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 3: Word up. Earlier this week you dropped twenty four ahead. 158 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 3: This week, you dropped twenty fourth sweeks in twenty four hours. 159 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 3: Previewing the new NFL season, touched on the Cardinals a bit. 160 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 3: You said Cliff will. 161 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 2: Get fired tweet. 162 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, despite his five year extension, and Arizona only wins 163 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 3: seven games, so by that logic, they're definitely getting blown 164 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 3: out by your Chiefs this Sunday. 165 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, let's let's let's pump the brakes on 166 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 2: a blowout. Okay, and it's the NFL, it's not college football. 167 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 2: I certainly think the Chiefs are gonna win. It's a 168 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: road game. Now, the Cardinals don't have new compkins, so 169 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 2: that hurts them. But they have been a team that's 170 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 2: been excellent early and then fallen off. That's been Kyler's trajectory, 171 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 2: that's been Cliff's trajectory. So I'm not I'm not now 172 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 2: do I think the Chiefs. I'm very curious to see 173 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 2: what type offense the Chiefs are running where If they are, 174 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 2: they have maybe the best offensive line in football. They 175 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 2: have a big, tall, strong receiving corps, but not as 176 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: obviously lost the game breaker and Tyreek kill. So do 177 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: they try to be more of a ball control kind 178 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: of less explosive but more efficient offense. I think that's 179 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 2: in play. So I'm I'm not guaranteeing any type of 180 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: Chiefs blowout. But I do think the Cardinals are in 181 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: a division with two awesome teams in the Rams and 182 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 2: the Niners. I think they have the worst coach in 183 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 2: the division by a mile. I think that I know 184 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 2: he just that Cliff just got that extension. I am 185 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 2: not as confident in the Cliff Kyler relationship as maybe 186 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 2: some people in Arizona or I understand, I'm an outsider there, 187 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: but they're obviously they're right there, and they're obviously married 188 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: to Kyler. So if this season goes left on him 189 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 2: and they feel like they've got to make a change, 190 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 2: and there's a lot of us that have been saying 191 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 2: Cliff Kingsbury just keeps failing up. I mean, this guy 192 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 2: was had Patrick Mahomes at Texas Tech and they couldn't 193 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: win eight more than eight games. They were under five 194 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: hundred one year, like there's never He was fired at 195 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 2: his alma mater, Texas Tech, and then got an NFL 196 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 2: not co ordinating job, head coaching job. So I don't 197 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 2: think Cliff's very good and I don't think the Cardinals 198 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: are gonna have a good season, and so despite the extension, 199 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: I do think he could be fired or will I 200 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 2: guess I said will be fired at the end of 201 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 2: the year. 202 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 3: All right, next, All right, you picked six new teams 203 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 3: to make the playoffs this year. Yeah, a few of 204 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 3: which were pretty surprising and would force out some favorites. 205 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 3: Who is gonna be the biggest surprise this year in 206 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 3: your opinion? 207 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 2: All right, so the six teams I have, so leave 208 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: this tweet up for a moment if you could. So 209 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 2: this is one of the things the media screws up 210 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: every year, every single year of my life, at least 211 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,319 Speaker 2: that I can, you know, my even the last call, 212 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 2: thirty years, there have been at least four new playoff 213 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 2: teams in the NFL. Okay, most years there are five 214 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 2: or six. And now there's an expanded field. Sow, how's 215 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: that gonna change things? So the tweets got a even 216 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 2: though I fixed a previous twet, still got a miss Brendan. 217 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 2: But that's all right. I call six teams of five teams. 218 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 2: I have six teams from last year that made the 219 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 2: playoffs out Titans out, Patriots, Raiders, Steelers out. So that's 220 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 2: four in the AFC, Cowboys and Cardinals out. So who 221 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 2: takes their spot? The Colts win the AFC South in 222 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: place of the Titans. The Chargers get the second AFC 223 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 2: or the first AFC wildcard spot, replacing the Raiders. The 224 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 2: Ravens might win that division. They'll replace the Steelers. Even 225 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 2: the Steelers doing the division the Vikings. I think in 226 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 2: a weaker NFC can make it. And then there's the 227 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 2: two surprising ones, the Jags and the Panthers. So those 228 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 2: are two terrible teams last year. I think the Jags 229 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 2: would be the biggest surprise to people. But I want 230 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 2: to talk about Mike Case for both the Jags and 231 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 2: the Panthers right now. For the Panthers, it's very simple. 232 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 2: They had the worst quarterback situation in football last year. 233 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,559 Speaker 2: It was Sam Darnold, Cam Newton and PJ Washington. They 234 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 2: now have Baker. Now. Is Baker a star? No? But 235 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: is Baker a more than competent NFL quarterback? Yes? Have 236 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 2: we seen that a team can not only make the 237 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: playoffs but win a playoff game with Bakers it's quarterback? Yes, 238 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 2: So that's a massive upgrade. 239 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 3: Okay. 240 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,439 Speaker 2: I am hoping Christian McCaffrey can stay healthy. If he does, 241 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 2: he's inarguably one of the three most valuable running backs 242 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 2: in football and arguably the best. I like their pieces 243 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 2: on defense. I love the schedule. I also am not 244 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 2: a buyer on the Saints the way some people are, 245 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: thanks to Dennis Allen being the head coach and Jamis 246 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: nice story mediocre player, and the Bucks. I have major 247 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 2: questions about like we talked about in last week's gambling show. 248 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 2: So the schedule and you get it. Land in that 249 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:45,239 Speaker 2: division schedule, not that tough, good defense, huge upgrade at quarterback, 250 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 2: weaker conference. Could I see Carolina going nine to eight 251 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 2: and getting into the playoffs. I could now to Jacksonville Jacks. 252 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 2: I think Trevor Lawrence is going to be a superstar. 253 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: Right if I'm right about that, this is the year 254 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 2: he starts to show that. Now they overpaid at wide receiver. Okay, 255 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 2: Christian Kirk, they way overpaid. They have Say Jones, They 256 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: have Marvin Jones. With that said, he now has legitimate weapons. 257 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 2: He also at running back, they spent They drafted Trevor 258 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 2: Lawrence number one last year, then they drafted the second 259 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 2: round Travis at TN his running back from Clemson at 260 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 2: ten got hurt before the season started. They never got 261 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 2: to play together last year, so they have that. On offense, 262 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 2: they upgraded the offensive line somewhat by adding Shriff from Washington. 263 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 2: They spent the number one pick of the draft on 264 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 2: a pass rusher, Even if it was kind of a 265 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: surprising number one pick. A lot of people thought they 266 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 2: should have taken Aden Hutchinson fine, defense should be okay. 267 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 2: And the biggest difference is urban Meyer was an abject disaster. 268 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 2: The team hated him. He seemed to hate the team. 269 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 2: He's kicking kickers, he's calling coaches losers even though he 270 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 2: hired him. He's skipping team flights doing all this stuff. 271 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: Uh and by the way, let's let's not the for 272 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: the it's the that's my opinion. Let's that's a podcast 273 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: exclusive for and for social folks. Let's not blast out 274 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 2: my uh my, that take there. But but it is 275 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: what it is. It's the truth. The no pun in. 276 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 2: Don't want to kick a man when he's down. No 277 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 2: pun intend, even though I think you kicked Doug Peterson's 278 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 2: legitimate NFL coach. Doug Peterson went to a Super Bowl 279 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: and won a Super Bowl with Nick Foles as quarterback 280 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 2: and Carson Wentz throughout the year. Carson Wentz been been 281 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 2: a disaster since then. So in the in the AFC South, 282 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: where I think Tennessee is gonna take a huge step back, 283 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 2: where Houston's obviously still rebuilding with a last play schedule, 284 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 2: I think the Jaggs can be the team the Oh 285 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: my god, where did this team come from team. So 286 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 2: those are the two big surprises. And I'm just am 287 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 2: I gonna get all these? 288 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 3: Right? 289 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 2: Of course not, but I'm so sick of looking at 290 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 2: NFL predictions where it's like, hey, in the AFC, what 291 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 2: are your picks? And it's like, oh, five of the 292 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 2: same seven teams, with the difference being I have the 293 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 2: Broncos in for the Raiders and the Ravens in for 294 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: the Steelers, and then the In the NFC, I have 295 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 2: the Cowboys, the Bucks, the Packers. 296 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 3: The ram It's like casual behavior. 297 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 2: It's just, but it's not just casual. It also goes 298 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: against history. It also goes the history says it's not 299 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 2: gonna be chalk all right, next, Oh, this one's gonna be. 300 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 3: So I know, it's football season. We're supposed to dedicate 301 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 3: the whole eight block to. 302 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 2: Just this is worthwhile. 303 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 3: But Patrick Beverly on Tuesday had a little interview and 304 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 3: was questioned by reporters saying, you know, how's it gonna 305 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 3: feel to be playing with Anthony Davis and Lebron James 306 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 3: And he interrupted and goes, they'll be playing with me. 307 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 3: I made the playoffs last year. 308 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 2: They didn't. 309 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 3: They did. 310 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 2: It's a difference. 311 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, But then the next day he was seeing joking 312 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 3: around with Russ around the press and all that good stuff. 313 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 3: Is Patrick Beverley joining the Lakers turning into a disaster. 314 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 2: I hate it so much to mon say, what was 315 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 2: your take when you saw this video? 316 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,239 Speaker 3: I thought that, like if there had to be like 317 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 3: a previous discussion and given what he said, like, I 318 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 3: thought that, you know, he was like, hey, I'm gonna 319 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 3: say this, But then I thought like the question was 320 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 3: very specific. Yeah, for them to have talked about that, 321 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 3: I think he really believes that. In his heart, he 322 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 3: really believes he really believes it. 323 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: He really believes it. But how about I got some fun. 324 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 2: I understand Patrick Beverly's not a scorer. I understand that's 325 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 2: not always there for but he's played six hundred career 326 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 2: in NBA games. He has scored twenty points twenty eleven times. 327 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 2: He has scored more than twenty five points once in 328 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 2: his career, and the career I was twenty six. He says, Oh, 329 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 2: you know, everywhere I go, we make the playoffs. Fun 330 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 2: fact he was in Houston they never made it out 331 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 2: a round two. He then got hurt. They made the 332 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 2: conference finals. For the first time since a Keen was there. 333 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 2: They then traded him after not making another conference finals 334 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 2: for a couple of years, they immediately make the conference 335 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 2: finals again. He goes to the Clippers and they're a tough, 336 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 2: scrappy team, and then they lose Kawhi Leonard and they 337 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 2: make the conference finals. Do you know what Tylo's big 338 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 2: adjustment was. He benched Patrick Beverley. And here's the problem. Okay, 339 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 2: the lack of self awareness, demanse, go ahead. 340 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 3: I think the lack of self awareness has landed him 341 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 3: on the Lakers. I think that if Patrick Beverly didn't 342 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 3: have like if he if he wasn't on his usual antics, 343 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 3: I don't think any team is like really looking at 344 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 3: him like that. I think he's just like another average 345 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 3: NBA player. 346 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 2: That's fair counterpoint. Rudy Gobert was traded. He was traded 347 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 2: for nine picks and players. Rudy Gobert is what, at best, 348 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: the twenty fifth best player in the league, at worst, 349 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 2: the thirty fifth best player in the league. Right, we'll 350 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 2: call him thirtieth. Patrick Beverly was the eighth most important 351 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 2: asset included in a trade for Rudy Gobert. So the NBA, 352 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: his own team, was like, all right, you have around 353 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 2: six percent of the value of the league's thirtieth best player. 354 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 2: That team that traded for him, the Jazz. Then the 355 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: Lakers called him. They're like, hey, we have this kid, 356 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 2: Taylor Horton Tucker, and the Jazz were like, oh, the 357 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 2: guy who, according to the Nerdy Number player efficiency rating 358 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 2: value or replacement player, was the second worst regular play 359 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 2: like second worst player in the entire league to get 360 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,879 Speaker 2: regular minutes last year. They're like, yeah, we want to 361 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 2: trade him to you. And that team was like, boy, 362 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 2: straight up, one for one, will you do it? 363 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 3: And that's it. 364 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 4: And this guy is saying Lebron James arguably the greatest 365 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 4: player ever, inarguably one of the three greatest players ever, 366 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 4: and Anthony Davis, who's a top seventy five guy in 367 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 4: a champion they get to play with me. Yeah, because 368 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 4: I made the playoffs last year they didn't. There's a difference. 369 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 2: You're right. He does seem to be repairing that relationship 370 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 2: with Russell Westbrook, which is nice because he just named Palm. 371 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 2: Did I am telling you right? So Patrick Beverly, also, 372 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember this when the Clippers 373 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 2: got Kawhi and Paul George, Patrick Beverly reportedly said about 374 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 2: Steph Curry, he had his time. It's my time, my time, 375 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 2: not the Warriors had their run. Now it's Clippers time, 376 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: my time. When they got Kawi and Paul George. It 377 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 2: was in summer League was going on Vegas. Saul lebron 378 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: James refused to shake his hand, saying, you don't like 379 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 2: consort with the enemy. 380 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 4: This guy. 381 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 2: Doesn't comprehend like this would. I'm not I'm gonna mix 382 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 2: metaphors here a bit, but can you imagine if like 383 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 2: there was like some Fox Company party and it's like 384 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 2: there's Colin Skipp and Shannon and someone walks up to 385 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 2: you and it's like, man, it's pretty cool that you're 386 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 2: in this room with these guys, and you're like, you've 387 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 2: seen the views on each of our last YouTube videos. 388 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 2: Mine did sixty thousand, and theirs are in the twenties 389 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: at the moment they're in a room with me. I 390 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: can't believe it, and I'm sorry for that's the meanest 391 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 2: thing I've ever said to you. I just compared to 392 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: Patrick Beverly, and I mean it good.

And then, 395 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 2: because you know what's gonna happen, there's gonna be a 396 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 2: moment that because Lebron.

Has did you see the behind 505 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 2: the back shot? No, hold on, I have to show 506 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 2: you this. I absolutely have to show you this, because 507 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 2: it is he didn't even win this point, demonse, but 508 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 2: this is this guy. Hold on, I look at this. 509 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: You're not gonna be able to hear it, but just 510 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 2: watch what he does. Shut it. Sorry for the audio there, 511 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 2: and I, oh, yeah, it's unbelievable what this guy can do. 512 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 2: This has been as good of a tournament as I 513 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 2: can remember. No Nadal the last week, Djokovic doesn't show 514 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 2: Serena's only plays three matches and it's still so compelling. 515 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 2: So listen, my pick Coco lost the other day. My 516 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 2: picks went down in flames. Yeah, it's hard to pick 517 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty eight men and one hundred and 518 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: twenty eight women. It's hard to pick the winners I 519 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 2: had Coco and Nadal and either even made the semis. Okay, 520 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 2: my bat, but I am so enthralled by it. Can 521 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 2: I say one more tennis thing before remove on because 522 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 2: we have to hit time today. I beg of you, 523 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 2: Is it the USTA? Whoever puts on the US Open? 524 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 2: I think it's USTA. Can you please move the US 525 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: Open back one week? Because there is nothing more illogical 526 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 2: than the US Open, which is the culmination of the 527 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 2: season of tennis, having its men's final in the afternoon 528 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 2: of the first NFL Sunday of the year. It's so dumb, 529 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 2: it's so silly. Move it back one week, you A, 530 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 2: then we'll get more people watching, or at the very least, 531 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 2: if you don't want to do that, put it on 532 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 2: Sunday night so you're only up against one NFL game 533 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 2: and you can you know a lot of you will 534 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 2: multi screen whatever. But if you do that, you're still 535 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 2: what you're losing out on. Is any chance at any 536 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 2: sports show on the Tennis channel or my guy Mad 537 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 2: Dogs radio show talks about you on Monday, We're all 538 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 2: gonna be talking NFL the whole time. College football's figured 539 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,479 Speaker 2: this out. They try to have some monster games the 540 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 2: weekend before the NFL starts, and they're all not even 541 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,239 Speaker 2: playing on Sunday. They're playing on Saturday. So it has 542 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 2: been unbelievable when I feel really happy that tennis is 543 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 2: in good hand. Sinner's only twenty one. He played great yesterday, 544 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 2: and Alkarez could end up being a legend if he 545 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 2: wins the US Open at nineteen and he's the favorite. Well, 546 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 2: I can't say he's the favorite right now, because the 547 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 2: other thing is tomorrow. He's got to play Tiafo and 548 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: a TFO pardon me, and you do worry that playing 549 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 2: the second longest match in US Open history at night, 550 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 2: that he is he gonna have any legs left, so 551 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 2: TFO could win it. The whole thing's great. I hope 552 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 2: the winner of TFO Akarez wins the whole thing. All right, now, 553 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 2: let's go very fast here. 554 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 3: It's time for two wrongs. Run right, let's get it. 555 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson, the Ravens reportedly still far apart from contract commands, 556 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 3: according to Ian Rappaport, how will this affect his play positively, negatively, 557 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 3: or not at all? 558 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 2: All right, I do wonder if this gets done, maybe 559 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 2: even gets done before people see this. But probably not. 560 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 2: I think the answer is going to be not at all. 561 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 2: There is a chance it affects him negatively just in 562 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 2: this regard. Part of what makes Lamar so devastating is 563 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 2: he plays with such a reckless abandon and his style. 564 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 2: Could it even subconsciously, could he play a little more 565 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 2: cautiously right, throw the ball away instead of run? 566 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 567 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 2: And maybe the Ravens want him to play that way, 568 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 2: but it's not what is their best chance of winning 569 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 2: each individual game when he doesn't have the one hundred 570 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 2: and fifty million locked right. So I don't think it's 571 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: gonna be positive. It's probably gonna be not at all. 572 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 2: But if it was gonna if you only gave me, 573 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 2: it's either gonna help him or hurt him, I would 574 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 2: say hurts more likely. 575 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 3: Next three of the most historic franchises in the NFL 576 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 3: are having questions at quarterback. Who benches their current starter first, 577 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh with Mitch Trubisky, San Francisco with Trey Lance, or 578 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 3: the Giants with Daniel Jones. 579 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: Well, it's definitely not San Francisco with Trey Lance. It's 580 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 2: definitely not. I don't really look at Mitch Trubisky as 581 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 2: the Steelers starter. He is, but they he's a stopgap. 582 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 2: They drafted a guy in the first round. That guy, 583 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett, played well in the preseason. I think it's 584 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 2: Mitch Trubisky is just holding onto that job for a 585 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 2: month until I think that's inevitable. So the answer is Trubisky. 586 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 2: But I do think Daniel Jones gets binched this year 587 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 2: eventually as well. And that's real benching. That's a guy 588 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 2: they spent a top ten pick on. It's supposed to 589 00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 2: be their guy, and they're gonna have to turn the 590 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 2: page on next. 591 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 3: Sometimes preseason storylines matter, Sometimes they don't. Which storyline will 592 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 3: matter in a month. Roger has no Rogers has no receivers, 593 00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 3: Patriots offensive line in disarray, offense in disarray, Tom Bradley, 594 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 3: and Tom Brady's personal life. 595 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,760 Speaker 2: All right, I think these could be three rights. Okay, 596 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 2: I think they all could matter. But if I'm gonna 597 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 2: power rank them, I'm gonna say the one that's gonna 598 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 2: matter the least is whatever tom Brady is going through. 599 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 2: I think he'll be able to compartmentalize. I think the 600 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 2: one that will matter the next lease or second, I 601 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 2: should say, is Rogers wide receivers. Listen, DeVante Adams is 602 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 2: awesome and he had a very special on the field 603 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 2: relationship with him, and I think he's gonna miss him. 604 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 2: But he's also Aaron Rodgers. I think he'll make do. 605 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,439 Speaker 2: But it's going to matter. The Patriots offense is gonna 606 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 2: be a show all year, and it's going to I 607 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 2: think they're gonna win six. 608 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 3: Games, seven games with Patriots. Sorry, all right, since our 609 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 3: last Since our last part, Donovan Mitchell has traded not 610 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 3: to the Knicks though, but to the Calves. Who won 611 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 3: this trade? The Jazz? The Calves or the Knicks. 612 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 2: Oh, listen, I think the Jazz came in last of these. Again, 613 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna power rank them. Sorry, I know it's not 614 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 2: the case the segment, uh I would I don't like 615 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 2: what was reportedly the knicks best offer was a far 616 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 2: better return than the one the Jazz got. And you're 617 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 2: gonna have Knicks draft picks than Calves draft picks because 618 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,879 Speaker 2: the Caves have Darius Garland, Evan Mobley and in two 619 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 2: years they might have bron and Browny set them aside. 620 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 2: So I think the cat the Jazz lost it. I 621 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 2: think the Knicks, though, came out okay, because I think 622 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 2: it would have been crazy what that initial offer was 623 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 2: reported of r J. Grimes three unprotected firsts. That's that's 624 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 2: too much for Donovan mitchellhen you already have Jalen Bronson. 625 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 2: But the real winners are the Calves. Donovan Mitchell provides 626 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 2: exactly what they need. Mobley and Jared Allen will be 627 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 2: able to cover up the defensive deficiencies. And now you 628 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 2: have four legit ant, high level rote starters. Garland is 629 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 2: an all star, Donovan Mitchell's approven score, Mobiley's gonna be 630 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 2: a superstar, and Jared Allen's nice piece. They just the 631 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 2: only spot they don't have a small forward. Only there 632 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 2: was a small forward, then two years could be available. 633 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 2: And if only they had a draft picked the year, 634 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 2: the one draft pick they didn't trade is the year 635 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 2: it'd be Brown. He's one and done year intriguing little 636 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,840 Speaker 2: part three for Lebron year twenty two, that would be Cleveland. 637 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 2: It'd be unbelievable, all right. 638 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 3: Last Katie was rated in ninety six in NBA two 639 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 3: K twenty three and took to Twitter to call it 640 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 3: Ronnie two K Katie is actually mad being sincere. Where 641 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 3: is a Twitter genius. 642 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 2: He's a Twitter genius, and he's actually mad at two K. 643 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 3: I think he is. 644 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 2: I think he's by the way, is not your screw up. 645 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 3: I had no idea that that was up there. 646 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:52,879 Speaker 2: Hold on, no, you did this right. Is not your 647 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 2: screw up. I'm gonna ask our producers what's the difference 648 00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 2: between being sincere and actually mad. I'm gonna go ahead. 649 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and say one of those actually 650 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 2: mad being sincere should be being sarcastic, being sarcastic. But 651 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 2: that's all right, you know what, we we read what's 652 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 2: on the screen. We're just trained monkeys over here. Just 653 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 2: read what's on the screen. But the so, I think 654 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 2: he actually is mad, but there's I'm gonna tell KD 655 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 2: why he's not ninety go ahead, he's actually mad. 656 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no way he got swept in the freaking 657 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 3: playoffs this here in the first round and is questioning 658 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 3: his six. 659 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 2: Okay, first of all, and I love two K. I'm 660 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 2: in the game. But uh, they've got it, guys. They 661 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 2: took They were a little cowardly with the rankings this 662 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:48,399 Speaker 2: year because they put Lebron, Katie Steph Embiid and one 663 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:49,359 Speaker 2: other person. 664 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 3: Klay Thompson kind of dirty. 665 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 2: But they put all five of those guys tied at 666 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 2: ninety six and then Jannis at ninety seven. Y's best 667 00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 2: player in the league, yoah should be But why are 668 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,240 Speaker 2: they they all bunched uff like that? And the answer 669 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 2: is because they have to protect the sacred cow that 670 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: is Michael Jeffrey Jordan. He's on the cover, so he 671 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 2: ninety nine and we can't even have anyone in ninety 672 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:19,399 Speaker 2: eight because got you and nobody's even close. So now 673 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,280 Speaker 2: the top is ninety seven and then it's all bunched. 674 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 2: But listen, the Giannis has to be the highest ranked 675 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 2: player in the game.

If Jordan's in ninety nine, then I 679 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,240 Speaker 2: bet Shack's in ninety eight.
