34
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: big doubleheader of the night. The opening game, the Knicks

35
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: just roll past the Minnesota Timberwolves. Uh fourteen. It's a

36
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 1: good game. At half, it was. And then the Knicks

37
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: just to say, hey where the Knicks. We're pulling away.

38
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: Go New York, Go, New York.

39
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 3: Go.

40
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: But the Wolves didn't have KG, No they did. They

41
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: didn't have Tom Googliata either. It was a huge lot.

42
00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: That's that's that's that's very difficult. Sure he's the Googs.

43
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: Yeah no, you're not winning that game. Not winning but

44
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: Marbury shoes, I mean all of that stuff. We are

45
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: now getting potentially Western Conference Finals preview. We are getting

46
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: Spurs and the Lakers, Wemby and Luca are playing. I

47
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: just I did this? Did you verify that? I? Well, okay,

48
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: they show last five minutes. They showed Wemby in the

49
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 1: locker room getting dressed. They had a graphic on Luka

50
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: doncic so, I I have there was a graphic Luca,

51
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: graphic on Luca. We got no visual, but Luca was

52
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: in the graphic. Luca was in Laker gear, not in

53
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 1: the slimming but it wasn't a gear him from the

54
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 1: interwebs like, no, it was actually him, like it was

55
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: Harry Potter with the moving person. Well, it's like the

56
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 1: trading cards. You can't expect Dumbledore to stay forever. Video

57
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: of Wemby, uh before the game and a graphic of Luca.

58
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: I I'm pretty sure we're feeling good about this. Okay, Yeah,

59
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: that's good. And your guy Austin Reeves is ready and

60
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: loaded for Bear. I'm sure. I mean, look, this is

61
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: he's like your hero. Now, this is what Look, he's

62
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: the Scottie Pippen till Luca daunted is Michael Jordan Lebron's

63
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: coming back Lebron's coming back is Bill Wennington when he

64
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: comes back. I mean, come on, man, you got Luca

65
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: is is Mike and and Austin Reeves is Pippin' uh

66
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: Ruey Hotchimore is bj Armstrong. Just be careful. Jackson has

67
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: been lured out of whatever made because he's got a

68
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: book out, so he's doing promos. Maybe Lebron is Luke

69
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 1: Longley when he comes back. Maybe maybe he's maybe he's

70
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: Horace Grant. Maybe he's Steve Kerr like Lebron. Lebron's coming

71
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: back to Grant with or without goggles. Uh, with goggles,

72
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: He's with goggles, he's a force. Yeah no, without goggles,

73
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: he might be Harvey. You don't know. I mean just look,

74
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: this is a big and look and you're saying, well,

75
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: Harvey Grant played for the Wizards for long. It was

76
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: a bullet and he It all goes back to the

77
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 1: Harry Potter thing. Watching. Look. ESPN is doing their intro

78
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: right now. There is a big picture behind Milika and

79
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: of Wemby. There's a big one of Luca in his

80
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 1: Laker jersey right behind they are playing. They call him Michael. Yeah, hey, listen,

81
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: I don't want you to put anything Lakers behind me,

82
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: put that behind her. Okay, I don't want that. I

83
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: don't want the Lakers be looking over my shoulder. Okay,

84
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: we beat them three years ago before I got fired. Now,

85
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 1: if they animated that Luca graphic, that would have been

86
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: funny as hell, like he was looking down on alone

87
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: and mocking him. But really, I mean too big. Look,

88
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: this is a huge game tonight. There's so much interest

89
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: in this watching Luca warm up on the court. Again,

90
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 1: Luca's going to play right. But Wemby, we've talked about,

91
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: not surprised that the Spurs are this good. Remember, I

92
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 1: don't like to say this, but I told you they

93
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: were my long shot NBA Finals pick because at some

94
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 1: point Wemby's becoming the best player in the NBA. I

95
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: thought it might take till closer, till the All Star break,

96
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: but it's happening. Now, We're into November and Wemby's the

97
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: best player in the NBA.

98
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 2: Uh.

99
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, Luca lost to Phoenix. Yeah, but it's okay. Well,

100
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: I think I think they'll take you'll take six up,

101
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: one down. I think you'll you'll take that going along

102
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: the way. So you're already giving him the victory tonight. Yeah,

103
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: you'll take well, you take the five what I'm saying,

104
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 1: you'll take five to six up, one down, You'll you'll

105
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: take that for this. But the Lakers, the Lakers are

106
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 1: so like the Spurs are fun, right, Like they're coming

107
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: back and now finally they have a star that's more

108
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: exciting to watch than than Tim Duncan. Boy. I really

109
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 1: like watching him just you know, box out and and

110
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: hit that fade away off the glass. Boy, that's fun.

111
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: That's fun seeing that over and over and over again.

112
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: But like Wemby's made the Spurs fun, and the era

113
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 1: of the Spurs is here being a dominant team in

114
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: the Western Conference, right, because it's not surprising, oh, when

115
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: a guy becomes the best player in the NBA that

116
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:36,280
Speaker 1: his team is gonna be good.

117
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 2: Right.

118
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 1: I can't believe more people weren't on the Spurs this year.

119
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: But the Lakers. This is just absolutely fascinating because this

120
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:48,599
Speaker 1: is the exact opposite of how anyone, including Lebron, thought

121
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: this season was gonna start for the Lakers. Because you know, Leblok,

122
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: Lebron and the Lakers have been at odds. They've been

123
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: keeping him out. He's not in the circle of trust anymore.

124
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: He is way outside. He is way outside Ben stillers

125
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: circle of trust with Robert de Niro and meet the parents. Man,

126
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 1: He's so far outside. You know, both each want the

127
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: other person gone. Lebron wants to be gone. The Lakers

128
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: want him gone, and Lebron with whether he's old, whether

129
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: he just wants to sit out. You know, he is thinking, Okay,

130
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: how do I get my cachet back with the Lakers?

131
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,919
Speaker 1: Without me? They might not start out great. Maybe Luca

132
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: lifts them a little bit and they're a five hundred team.

133
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,359
Speaker 1: But when I come back, we're better. And then I

134
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: get a little bit of my Hey, don't remember, it's

135
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: still Lebron's team. It's still Lebron's team, right, But what

136
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: have we seen instead? Luca has been terrific, And when

137
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: Luca's been out, Austin Reeves has won games all by himself.

138
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 1: And when he's out, Smith Junior, right exactly off the bench,

139
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: is scoring twenty five and twenty five minutes the Lakers.

140
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: For all the hot takes you see, you know, the

141
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: Indiana Fever are functioning better without Caitlin Clark than they

142
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,599
Speaker 1: are with her. Uh. You watch the Lakers and see

143
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: how they function They are functioning incredibly well without Lebron James.

144
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: They're functioning well without I mean really, I mean obviously

145
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: not for a long period of time, but nights when

146
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: Luca misses, they've still been okay. Right. You watch Austin

147
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: Reeves forty points fifty points thirty in a game winner.

148
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: This team is moving the ball around, They're getting more

149
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 1: players involved. It is a much more cohesive team with

150
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: Austin Reeves functioning as the one A or the two

151
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: to Luca's one. Especially coming out of the backcourt. Reeves

152
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: doesn't need the ball in his hand as much Luca

153
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: can have the ball. It's not auditioned by subtraction. It's just, hey,

154
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: this fit right now really really works, whereas last year

155
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: was hey, Luca's got the ball, Lebron's got the ball.

156
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: Does anybody else really get involved in what did you say?

157
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: Did anybody really step up when that happened? Do we

158
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: think all the Lakers are going to be really good?

159
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 1: They're going to figure things out. They figured things out

160
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: without Lebron James. I mean, think about that when he

161
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: comes back. How is he going to fit in? I

162
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: feel like it's the same conversation we had that when

163
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: when sanity was going on and Mellow was hurt, which

164
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: is why insanity happened, And the questions were, uh, Mellow,

165
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: how are you going to fit into this offense when

166
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: you come back? What do you mean for it's my offense?

167
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: This guy's been around for about a day and a half.

168
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: What are you tough? But that's really where the Lakers are.

169
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: They look better so far without Lebron James. I never

170
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 1: thought i'd say that, Yet here we are. Well, I

171
00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: mean some of it. I think if you went to Carmelo,

172
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: first off, and you brought any of that up, he'd

173
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 1: have flashbacks. Oh well, I mean him and Phil Jackson

174
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: are still fighting now about them? No, that's it Phil

175
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 1: doing this thing with his you know, top seventy five book.

176
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: He and Sam Smith, a longtime beat rider for the

177
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: Bulls going through and now a great singer. Oh yeah,

178
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: he can get up there me. No, they were all

179
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: with Dan Patrick, and he validated a point I've made

180
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: for a long time. What's that? He said? The guy

181
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: you wished he would have coached was Christian Laytner. How

182
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: about that they're selling the Christian Laytner thing forever that

183
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: he was just in a terrible uh oh circumstance. He

184
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: was a te wolf for all those years. But you

185
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 1: look at what the Lakers have been and he got

186
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: what six seven guys averaging six seven exactly averaging double

187
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: digit figures at this point, including Nick Smith Junior in

188
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 1: his three games. La Ravia has been fantastic off the bench.

189
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: Reeve's average still averaging nine assists per game. So you're

190
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: moving the ball and guys are finding their roles, and

191
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 1: you met, you know, harken back to last year where

192
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 1: there's a lot of standing around with all right, who,

193
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: how's this flowing? I mean, how many possessions did each

194
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 1: guy take off? Or you can go back and isolate,

195
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: all right, there's Luca. He's not even in frame right,

196
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: hands on the hip as Lebron takes the ball or

197
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: vice versa, and overall it's still played. It played well,

198
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: It's just disjointed here for this first part of the

199
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: season with Lebron on the shelf, they've been able to

200
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: figure it out when Luca's not there. Everybody's relishing the

201
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: extra minutes, the extra touches, knowing that they might be

202
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: part of a deal like that's the other part, like

203
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 1: a lot of these guys are just trying to find

204
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: their mark to show their value either with JJ Reddick

205
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: and what the Lakers are building or if not, auditioning

206
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 1: for another team. Because there's no way I don't believe

207
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 1: at all that this is where we're at anywhere near

208
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,839
Speaker 1: the trade deadline in terms of what this Lakers roster

209
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: looks like, whether Lebron's gone or still there or whatever.

210
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: The ancillary parts. Are you making tweaks or are you

211
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: saying we need another big player in but the any

212
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: parts need move I don't know. I know we need

213
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: a big player. Can't get I gonna get Wemby. So

214
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: but I mean, this is this is the worst nightmare

215
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 1: for Lebron James because the one thing Lebron has always

216
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: never had to fight about has been relevant. Right, That's

217
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: why this is a big deal. Lebron has been the

218
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: straw that has stirred the drink in the NBA for

219
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: twenty years. Still at this point, he is the number

220
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: one star in the league that everybody talks about, that

221
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: that that moves the needle. Yeah, it's great to talk about.

222
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: We talk a lot about Wemby, Does it doesn't do

223
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: what Lebron does. I love talking about the Knicks, and

224
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: Knicks are relevant. Nicker Hughte not as big as Lebron.

225
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: Twenty years he has had no matter what he has done,

226
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: the one thing he is ever had has been wait

227
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: a minute, I'm just the I'm the second guy in

228
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: the Buddy Cop movie. I'm I'm the I'm the sidekick,

229
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: I'm the he's not been that guy. I'm not gonna lie.

230
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: I've really enjoyed these first couple of weeks of the

231
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: NBA season because this is i mean, we we talked

232
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: about it a little bit, but because of this marquee

233
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: matchup against the Spurs, this is the first time that

234
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: it's fully in focus. I'm enjoying just watching the rest

235
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: of the NBA and seeing these guys getting their shine.

236
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 4: Right.

237
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: You got wem Bin Yama and Castle a nice one

238
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: to two in their own rights. Right now. That Castle

239
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: is healthy and giving you the minutes he is, uh

240
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: And you look at some of the other young stars

241
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: who talk about your nicks and and laughers like they

242
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 1: pulled off today. It was good that that Ann Edwards

243
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: is back and able to play and all but and

244
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,719
Speaker 1: Yanna is putting up points. Whether he becomes a nick

245
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: later on, but that Lebron doesn't have to be the

246
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 1: focal point to coverage, right, and and that top part

247
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 1: of a funneling down of NBA stories. There are plenty

248
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: of other stars taking their shine and and taking up

249
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: the the oxygen in the room. When he comes back, great,

250
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: But for now he's over there. He's just in time out.

251
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: But he's gone. Look, he's still playing. He's still he

252
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: still needs to figure out a way. And maybe this

253
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: is why he's sitting out, because I got to figure

254
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: out a way to to be be the guy again. Right,

255
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: He's never that's the thing. He's never been that guy.

256
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,319
Speaker 1: He's never had to be the Oh maybe now I'm

257
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: lower in the pecking order. Whether you and and if

258
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: he came into this year and it was him and Luca,

259
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: you could say, Okay, I'm okay with it being Lucas team,

260
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: but still everybody knows it's really my team. And when

261
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: the playoffs come, I'm the guy taking the shots because

262
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: he's always been a big playoff performer, So I'm okay

263
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 1: with that. But now it's he's getting such shunted aside

264
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: to the point where where you really wonder, like, how

265
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 1: is he gonna handle not being the story? And I've

266
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: said this scre I can't. I still have a hard

267
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 1: time envisioning Lebron James suiting up for this Laker team,

268
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: with the way the off season has gone and how

269
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 1: they have said to him, you are not our guy,

270
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: we would like you to go, and he says I

271
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: would like to go. I still I can't believe he's

272
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: actually gonna play. But that's the most fascinating store in

273
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: the NBA. What kind of role he has when he

274
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: comes back? Is it the number three guy? How does

275
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: he adjust with not being that big star again? Like

276
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 1: how is he just gonna be really sullen and surly

277
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: the entire time? Is he gonna be funny and not caring?

278
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: Is he gonna play once and then not come back

279
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 1: for the three weeks? Like that's fascinating because I don't

280
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: know how he's gonna handle them. I'll take you back

281
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: to arriving at Northwestern. I went to a competitive high

282
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: school in the in Chicago and a lot a lot

283
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: of smart people, a lot a lot of people smarter

284
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: than me. But then I get to Northwestern and I'm

285
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 1: used to that a lot of people that came to

286
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: Northwestern were not used to that. They were the smartest

287
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: kid by far, and all of their reaches across the

288
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: country and globally, and then all of a sudden they

289
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: were getting smacked around in those classes didn't go so well.

290
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: Lebron is finally seeing that for the first time in

291
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: his life. He's that little kid with the book back, going, yeah,

292
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 1: this ain't so easy anymore. Uh. I mean, he might

293
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: be the number three guy in the Lakers if he

294
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: have look at you. In promotion, Austin Reeves. For over

Speaker 1: to hide behind it. It's just yeah, these guys are

334
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: all missing. Now, what are you gonna do? I mean

335
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: we talked about it last night. I mean you were

336
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 1: incensed by the eight o'clock start time. I was more

337
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: upset that Kawhi was watching like we were against an

338
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: Oklahoma City thunder team, defending champs, coming undefeated all of that. Hey,

Speaker 1: the new TV partner? I'll see you in Hell. No,

341
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 1: I'm not working. I mean, who's like, like, the Warriors

342
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: are missing what seven guys? You know, Curry is sick

343
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: and there's Ah He's danging like It's like now, teams

344
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: really because of the play, not just because of the plan,

345
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: but as a result of it, teams don't really care anymore. Well,

346
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: we want to be in the top six, sure, but

347
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: if we're seven through ten, all right, We've seen teams

348
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: run to the NBA unless we got the mutant courts

349
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:02,479
Speaker 1: because the Cup is live. We're okay, We're yeah, we're

350
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 1: okay here. So the teams just don't care as much

351
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: about the regular season, and now you are seeing it

352
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: in just a brazen way, like I don't really care anymore.

353
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: It used to be, Hey, this guy's hurt. We're not

354
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna hide him from the media today even

355
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: though he's you know, we're gonna keep him in the back,

356
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: say he's getting treatment, but he's not really hurt. But

357
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: he's not gonna play tonight. We're gonna say he's dinged up.

358
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 1: We gotta hide it though nobody's saying anything. Now it's just, yeah,

359
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: these guys are all missing. Yeah, Steph's out, Draymond's out,

360
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: all the all those guys are what's the matter with him?

361
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 1: Steph is sick, and you know, somebody has a has

362
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: a concert to go to, and there's you know, somebody's

363
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: kid is in a recital, and and yeah, just something

364
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: outside of rest. Okay, in the second week of the season,

365
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: unless you're Zion Williamson, who's already on the shelf, saying

366
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,479
Speaker 1: rest and that you need the time off already. Come on, Like,

367
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: what are we doing here. I know it's a long slog,

368
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: and we've talked about this forever. I appreciate the product,

369
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: appreciate the wear and tear on the body and everything else.

370
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 1: But you're two weeks into the season. Yeah, I mean

371
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 1: you want to talk Hey, December January and you need

372
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: and you need a day. I can understand that you're

373
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: on a five game roadie, fine hair. Nah, I got

374
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 1: another way. I did appreciate though, because we we do

375
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: get the matchup, as you've talked about with Luca and

376
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 1: Wemby both playing. Uh DeAndre Ayton just went in with

377
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: one of the weakest efforts in the low post. I've

378
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,959
Speaker 1: seen Wemby just laid in wait and that went up

379
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: and blocked the thing in this Come on, man strong. Yeah,

380
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: but I think sometimes when you get the ball and

381
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: you go in and you go why he's he's got this. Yeah, Okay,

382
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm not gonna physically exert myself because

383
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: he's he's gonna block, but go in and then make

384
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: him work for the block. You basically said, here, here's

385
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: a here's one of those highlights that Adam Silver loves

386
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 1: so much. He's so big. It's like running. He's so

387
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: it's like big. When you get close to him, he's

388
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: got his hands. It's like running into it, like in

389
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,719
Speaker 1: a in a in a science fiction movie when when

390
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: there's like killer spider that are like that are like,

391
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: you know, fifty feet big, it's like running into it.

392
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: Going back to the William Shatner classic Kingdom of the Spiders,

393
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 1: back where are the Spiders? Spack tarantulis now like when

394
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: you run it up, you know, I'm running into this

395
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 1: and and I'm not getting out of this web. The

396
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: web is just way too big. The spider is fifty

397
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: feet big. Tap, I'm gonna I'm done. I'm just gonna

398
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: jump in and just stick right on the wall. Right,

399
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: That's what's gonna happen to spider Man. Spider Man now,

400
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: day after the NFL trade deadline and something that we've

401
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: talked about, like we hit on this on Monday night.

402
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 1: We talked about it and know, as always, congratulations to

403
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: everybody who picked up the topic in the last day

404
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 1: or so. It catches up eventually but today the Cardinals

405
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: announced Kyler Murray will go on injured reserve as he

406
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 1: continues to try to rehabilitate his foot injury. Right, so

407
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: now we pushed his story forward because now I got

408
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: something for you even better on this is that worth

409
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: a one hundred thousand dollars fine? Monday Monday, we said,

410
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: you know what, it's really time for the Cardinals to

411
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: move on from Kyler Murray. They have to find a

412
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: way to trade him in the off season. We said,

413
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: it's not gonna happen by Tuesday, obviously because he's injured,

414
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: the money that's due the dead cap, but you really

415
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: need to move on because you're seeing with Jacobe Brissett,

416
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 1: who's not the answer. But when your number two guy

417
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: who's been a backup in the league for a long

418
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 1: time can come in and play better than your starter,

419
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,239
Speaker 1: you know, we've gone as far as we can with

420
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: the Kyler Murray experience, and somebody else is going to say, yes,

421
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: we will take him. There's many different quarterback gurus that think, oh,

422
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: we can turn him into something, whether it's the Jets

423
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 1: or the Dolphins or the Browns, or somebody's gonna say, oh, no,

424
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: I know how to do it. We can do it. Okay,

425
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: So you figure out the money, you figure out a trade, right,

426
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: Money's always figure outable. It's always figure out able. You

427
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: can always figure it out. Figure out able. I made

428
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: that up right now, figure out able. So yeah, Kyler

429
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: Murray is going to be traded in the off sea

430
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 1: and maybe the Cardinals get to point where they just

431
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: let him go and eat whatever money they need to eat. However,

432
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 1: now you want to push this forward here, he is

433
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 1: on ir now, so he's got to miss it at least

434
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 1: the next four games, which will take you into December. Today,

435
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: Jonathan gann and, head coach of the Cardinals, said it

436
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,959
Speaker 1: isn't season ending. Murray's got a chance to return if

437
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: his foot gets healthy. Quote, I really do hope that happens.

438
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: We got a lot of ball to play one day

439
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: at a time. Where he sits right now, he's got

440
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: to pour into his health bucket and get ready to

441
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: get healthy. I will give you this Bowl prediction right now,

442
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray has played his final game for the Arizona Cardinals.

443
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: Because you know, you can see you and see the

444
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: writing on the wall. You can see they know they

445
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: have to move on from him, right, they're knowing this,

446
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: seeing Brissette play Monday night against Dallas and really like

447
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,640
Speaker 1: Dallas defense, but still seeing him do this, you know

448
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: we're moving on. You want to be able to trade him.

449
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 1: You don't have to just cut and move on. And

450
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: if he's not healthy, that's going to be really, really

451
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: difficult to do. You put him out there and a

452
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 1: guy that's had a trouble staying healthy late in the season,

453
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: he gets hurt in December. What if he's not healthy

454
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: in March. Teams are gonna say, yeah, I like Kyler Murray,

455
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,439
Speaker 1: but man, there's like seven quarterbacks. We can go in

456
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: the first round and we can get Garrett Knutsmeyer at seventeen.

457
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: You know, we can get Ty Simpson at twenty two.

458
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: Whatever it's going to be. I think I kind of

459
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,199
Speaker 1: like that and said it's a little bit too much

460
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 1: of a gamble for me. So he's got to be

461
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 1: healthy at the end of the number one thing for

462
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. He's got to be healthy at the end

463
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: of the season. So it's pretty easy, quite honestly. You

464
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: have a quarterback that the team is playing better with,

465
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: so you leave him in there. If you get to

466
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: December and you're still in the thick of it, he

467
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: gets to stay the quarterback. If you're not, he still

468
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: stays the quarterback because he's the backup. And Kyler Murray's

469
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: got to stay healthy. Eye this bolt, He's played his

470
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 1: last down for the Arizona Cardinals. Yeah, I don't think

471
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: there's any way you bring him back at this point.

472
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: Foot injuries like the nebulous back thing, where you can

473
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: drag that out as long as you want, and that

474
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: is always what has made Kyler Murray special is his

475
00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 1: ability to scramble, to improvise, and to make plays that

476
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: not yield great success with his other teammates. This year,

477
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 1: in trying to do that when he was still at

478
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: one hundred percent, Marvin Harrison Junior was reduced to a

479
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: bystander and usually didn't really anticipate the ball finding him,

480
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: which is why you had some of the drops issues

481
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 1: where it just there was no connection. Marvin Harrison Junior

482
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: is right now the happiest guy in the world. Why

483
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: he was the game plan for this week and he's

484
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: got a guy that delivers the ball on time. Guess

485
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: what he gets what he wants because he's the guy

486
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: you're moving forward with Gannon. Also, he's like Tua. I

487
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: don't want him in front of a microphone. He sounds

488
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 1: like an idiot every time he gets in front of

489
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 1: a microphone. Yeah, but you can't, but you can't restrict coaching.

490
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: But he did that for He's done four or five

491
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: interviews and his story has changed. You sit down with

492
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: whoever your trainer is, sit down with a PR person

493
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 1: and get your story right and stick to the speaking. Cardinals.

494
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: Come on, man, They're lucky that every week they can

495
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: actually get the cameras working. I was so hopeful this

496
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: year that they were finally going to take a step forward.

497
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: And every raft defense they did all that stuff for Harrison.

498
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: Here we go. Connor gets hurt every fine they got

499
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: trade back. Oh no, he gets hurt now he got

500
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: De Mercado and cast of thousand banana the tailpipe every

501
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 1: year with the Cardinals. Every year with the Cardinals, and

502
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: they're in the division where there there is no ability

503
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 1: to uh slip. No, because because every team is much better.

504
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: Even the forty nine ers, who I think are absolutely overrated,

505
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna believe in them. Even they are much better.

506
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 1: They're good enough on any given Sunday to come and

507
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 1: get you. Yeah, and if they get healthy, but they're

508
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: they're a problem. But for the Cardinals with with Kyler Murray,

509
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: you know, look, the Jets gave Justin Fields two years,

510
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 1: forty million dollars and the tail yea Mendoza next year.

511
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you keep going down like you keep going down,

512
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: no fire. I'm like, I like the physical to us.

513
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: He's also a guy that helped get Brian Kelly fire.

514
00:24:55,520 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: So but unless that was the plan, you never know. Checkers,

515
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,639
Speaker 1: but you're doing chess. He was playing chess for the

516
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: rest of his year before becoming a potential top pick

517
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 1: in the draft. I like the cut of your jib.

518
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: But for Kyler Murray, we've seen him play well in spurts.

519
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: Can't stay healthy. That has been the knock forever and

520
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: now you have all this nebulous stuff. I only have

521
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 1: joke about the Cardinals. They should be writing a giant

522
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: ass check for the way they've handled this, because this

523
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: has been like if Lamar Jackson. I mean, because that

524
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: was ham handed the thing against the Bears before you

525
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: saw Snoop un Lee out there. This is one hundred

526
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: times worse what they've done because they're fumbling over their

527
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,439
Speaker 1: words and how they're going, Oh, now we're gonna put

528
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 1: them on ir Yeah, Like wait a minute, Thursday or Friday,

529
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: he was probably gonna start for Monday's game. And between

530
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: then and now, what happened? What did I miss?

531
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 4: Oh?

532
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: They played well against the Dallas defense, and suddenly you

533
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 1: have great confidence in Jacoby Brissett for the rest of

534
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: this year. Ham handed Now meanwhile, outside of the okay,

535
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: it's almost a ham season. He has played his last

536
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: down for the Cardinals. Good run. The Colts are hoping

537
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 1: to get Sauce Gardener to make his debut this week

538
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: they play Overseas. Uh, not sure yet because he was

539
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: in concussion protocol and when the team had to buy

540
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: you don't need to go through all the different qualifications

541
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: to get back. So they're hoping to get him back.

542
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: Shane Sikin said, that's the plan. They're hoping to get

543
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: him back this weekend when they play London, and they

544
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: can't wait to unwrap him and all the and I

545
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: get it, and let me just say this, just wait,

546
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: you'll see. You'll see you have an expectation for a

547
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: Sauce Gardener that is through the roof that you're gonna

548
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 1: throw him out there, and Drake Lennon's gonna say, please stop,

549
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 1: I can't even get open and cats a bath. You'll see,

550
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,239
Speaker 1: You'll see he's not the same guy. You're gonna put

551
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: him in zone coverage. That's great. You traded for a guy.

552
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: You're gonna give him thirty five million dollars years. We

553
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 1: can play a cornerback in zone coverage. Okay, everybody thinks

554
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 1: you're getting the Sauce Gardener that was four years ago.

555
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: Sauce Gardener. He is not that guy. And you and

556
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 1: I talked about some of the metrics that have been

557
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: out there for him the last couple of days where

558
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 1: he ranks at the top of the NFL, and I'm like,

559
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: you gotta be kidding me, man, that's not the case.

560
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 1: You see what the quarterback rating is when they're targeting

561
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: Sauce guarded quarterback ratings are over one fifteen. Like this

562
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: is trust me. I've seen every snap the guy's played.

563
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: He's not the guy he was last year, who was

564
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: not the guy who was the year before that, who

565
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 1: is not nearly the guy he was as a rookie

566
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: right now. A lot of it is We talked about

567
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: the rule change the hand, the hand responsibilities that you

568
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: can't get away with anymore. That has always whistled. It's

569
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: not all on him. It's a different way they call

570
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: the game, and that really screwed him. But you think

571
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 1: you're getting this guy that's gonna come in and say

572
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 1: I got everything? Yeah, just wait. Just just remember saying it.

573
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: This is not me being bitter Jets fan. I'm just

574
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: saying just wait. You think you're getting one thing with

575
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: Sauce Gardener and you're not. You're getting something else. Just wait.

576
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 1: Lua Anna Rumo is ready to make magic just way

577
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: in Germany this week. How about that? So go get

578
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: yourself a nice big stein Indianapolis six and a half

579
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: point favorite. Uh, we'll see if he gets the matched

580
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: up with Drake London a bunch because right now they

581
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: got nobody else that scares you out of it except Robinson Nijean.

582
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: You're staying him out of the backfield. But that's not

583
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 1: what I do. But he's their best player. The rest

584
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,479
Speaker 1: of their receivers still on the side of Milkirk. You

585
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 1: cover Kyle Pitts. Do we still need to cover Kyle Pitts?

586
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: The breakout is not happening. Okay, we're not gay. Is

587
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: Morooney actually gonna play this week? I mean, it's not

588
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 1: gonna be crazy because Sauce Gardner. Yes, it's not a

589
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: it's not a great day. It's not It's not a

590
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 1: great day for a matchup against a team with with

591
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: with tons of great offensive options where we have to

592
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: stop this guy outside of Robinson. But they're gonna expect

593
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: one thing out of Sauce Gardener and it's not gonna

594
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: be there, and the Colts are gonna go, huh, that's

595
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: not what I thought was gonna happen. That's not it's

596
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 1: not the guy we thought We're gonna bring it. Chut.

597
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: Just watch just one Robinson London and a lot of

598
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: question marks exit ou about a Fresco exit swollen down

599
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: the Jason Smith Show with my best friend Mike Carmen.

600
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,720

Speaker 1: That's what I'm here for you. Yeah, and we.

00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 2: I'd decide to still do it.

608
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: Okay, but yeah, we talked about.

609
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 4: It and you really inspired me, so thank you.

610
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: It came out. How come you're not wearing the wig anymore?

611
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: I think you would still wear the wig.

612
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 2: You know.

613
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 1: I like my hair.

614
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 4: I like my long hair, and I like my darker hair.

615
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 4: And I really was scaring people. People legit thought I

616
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 4: like snuck into this studio and they were going to

617
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 4: introduce my, introduce themselves to me, or escort me out

618
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 4: the building.

619
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: Wow, that's how much they didn't recognize me. Okay, Martin

620
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: couldn't even do the show. Well, he just kept staring

621
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: at me. I will say, when I saw you post

622
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: a picture of yourself as Philly Carro and I knew

623
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: it was you.

624
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 2: You and I talked about it.

625
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, so is that why you knew? But well, it

626
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: also still looked like you it kind of. I mean,

627
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 1: you didn't do anything to alter the face. Yeah, I

628
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: am with you.

629
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 2: I am just telling you. Most people's reaction.

630
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 4: Was that I did not look like myself at all.

631
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: I will say this though, that is impressive because generally

632
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 1: folks can wander around here and nobody says it word.

633
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

634
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: They just assume they're working on another show or something.

635
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know. So the fact that

636
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,560
Speaker 1: they actually so, yeah, I had a question for a

637
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: minute was good. Yeah, that's right, that's right.

638
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 4: We'll start in the NBA fellas, where all the threes

639
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 4: are falling for the Spurs. Really, they've already hit four

640
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 4: in the first quarter, while the Lakers are one of eight.

641
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 4: So the Spurs have a twenty three to eighteen lead

642
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 4: late in the first but Luka Danciic eight points so far,

643

Speaker 4: eight rebounds, and eleven assists, and we're only halfway through

00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 4: the third quarter where their Nuggets are leading the eighty

647
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 4: two to seventy five down to the final four minutes

648
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 4: in Dallas, as the Pelicans are on top of the

649
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,800

650
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,600

651

Speaker 4: the first quarter, Kings losing at home to the Warriors

654
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 4: after the first quarter thirty two to twenty five, and

655
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 4: the Warriors are playing without Jimmy Butler and without Steph Curry.

656
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,719
Speaker 4: The games that have wrapped up Cavaliers over the seventy

657
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 4: six ers, Pistons over the Jazz. The Nets get their

668
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 4: career goals as the Capitals crushed the Blues already six

669
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:57,840

713
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 1: there it is Capital's radio network on the call. Yes,

714
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: the first person to hit the nine hundred goal mark

715
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 1: in NHL history, Alexovichkin, of course very publicly broke the

716
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 1: record broke Wayne Gretzky's record last year against the Islanders,

717
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,919
Speaker 1: came into this year with eight hundred and ninety seven. Now,

718
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 1: this is this is a great debate, and I love

719
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: this topic because we we we talk a lot about

720
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: when's the next time we're getting a three hundred game

721
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,800
Speaker 1: winner in Major League Baseball? When's the next three thousand

722
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 1: hit member we're gonna get if we're ever gonna get

723
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,319
Speaker 1: one again? Like, Okay, we've seen that. I've seen guys

724
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: get the three thousand HiT's. I've seen guys get the

725
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: three hundred wins. I've seen that, But this is something

726
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: we've never seen. Every goal Alex Ovechkin scores continues to

727
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 1: improve his record nine hundred goals. He is forty years

728
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: old in the final year of his contract. A thousand

729
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: would really be something, big fat number, right, the one

730
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 1: thousand goals. Now here's the thing. Coming off of last year,

731
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, he'll get there. It's a little over

732
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 1: two years because he scored forty four goals last year. Yeah. Now,

733
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: the run to get to Gretzky's record, I'm sure help

734
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,440
Speaker 1: him a little bit. So when you're thirty nine years

735
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 1: old and you score forty four goals. Okay, I got

736
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 1: to think in a couple of years, you're gonna get there.

737
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 1: But thirteen games so far this year, that's just the

738
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 1: third goal of the year for Alex Novechkin, and he's

739
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: got to get to at least nine to thirty. You

740
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 1: want to say, if he thinks about saying, I'll continue

741
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: to do it. But even then you have to think

742
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: you're two full seasons away from getting there. So I thought,

743
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: coming into this year, I'm like, Okay, he'll score forty

744
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: four goals, He'll finish at nine thirty five nine, and

745
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,919
Speaker 1: then go, hey man, nine to forty. I can see

746
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: one thousand, right, I can see it. I'll come back

747
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: for another year. I'm gonna score thirty or forty goals.

748
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 1: Then let's say I really slow down my final year,

749
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 1: I only score twenty. I'll get to one thousand, right,

750
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 1: because because I have carte blanche to play for the

751
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: Capitol as long as I want, As long as I'm

752
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:24,359
Speaker 1: not making big drastic demands and salary wise, they'll let

753
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: me stay. But now a thousand seems so far away.

754
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 1: I thought for sure the end of last year he

755
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: was gonna get it. But when you get to be

756
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 1: forty and you start out and you have three goals

757
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,879
Speaker 1: in thirteen games, that's not a big That doesn't pour

758
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 1: ten that I think you can get there, because look,

759
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: father time catches up with you all at once. So

760
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: by the time, doesn't just I'm gaining on gaining it. No,

761
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 1: father time just grabs you from behind and pulls you down, right,

762
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,720
Speaker 1: That's what happens. So that like the big DK Metcalf

763
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 1: Buda Baker play from from like four years ago, that's

764
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,720
Speaker 1: what father time does. And now three and thirteen games,

765
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 1: he's got to go on absolute heater. And even like

766
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: I said, even if he gets another thirty this year

767
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 1: in his last fifty games, fifty five, that's not close enough.

768
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 1: I thought for certain he was there. Now that this

769
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,720
Speaker 1: thirteen game star tells me, yeah, man, he's not gonna

770
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:16,319
Speaker 1: and this is gonna be his last year in life.

771
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: Comes at you fast, man. You know you look at

772
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 1: three and thirteen games. I really thought we were gonna

773
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,359
Speaker 1: go back to last night when Drew Dowdy uh set

774
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: the team record for the Kings for most goals by

775
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 1: a defenseman, passing Rob Blake with one hundred and sixty two.

776
00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: Congratulations Drew Dowdy. But I mean, we look at this,

777
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 1: getting to nine hundred, this this is gonna stand seemingly forever.

778
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: I mean, your next guy's on the list that are active.

779
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: Sid the kid has six hundred and thirty four. He's

780
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 1: thirty eight, right, and then you go to Stamcoast and

781
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: then it's a drop to you know, the guys that

782
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 1: are just getting underway. So maybe whatever, But we talk

783
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: about salaries, we talk about you know, all the other

784
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,800
Speaker 1: considerations of trying to have this longevity and the game

785
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 1: changing as they all do and evolve. But for for

786
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 1: a Vechkin, it's it's a hell of a run. Like

787
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: I just remember him first coming out to the scene.

788
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: It seems like yesterday. So you blink and all of

789
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 1: a sudden, he's a forty year old guy, uh slogging,

790
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 1: blogging away. The impressive thing is he's done this, you know,

791
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,919
Speaker 1: even with the scoring drought, he got to this mark.

792
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 1: It's only fourteen games more than what Gretzky played in

793
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 1: his career. So I mean, you talk about parallels and

794
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,399
Speaker 1: running it together, but nine hundred nice even number. I'm out,

795
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: but yeah, you know, but here's the thing, though, is

796
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 1: that that's why this is so cool, because this goes

797
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: this goes way past hockey and that when you think

798
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 1: of the big records in the history of sports, you

799
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: think about okay, uh, you think of Emmitt Smith's rushing record.

800
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know at the top of my head with

801
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: the exact numbers. I don't think anybody does. I don't

802
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 1: think Emtt Smith does. What the exact number of his

803
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,720
Speaker 1: rushing records? Does? You think about the home runs? Barry

804
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:58,319
Speaker 1: Bond seven sixty two? Okay? You know, Hank Aaron seven

805
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 1: fifty five. That was always we had that, we had sight, right,

806
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: Babe Ruth at seven fourteen, like those were numbers that

807
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 1: were you had forever. There's only a handful of numbers

808
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 1: in sports that you can reside and you hear that

809
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: number and you off top you that's how many home

810
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: runs for this guy? That's this, that's this Ted Williams

811
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: four h six, right, you know for two? This is sure.

812
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 1: This is a it's a it's a crazy thing to

813
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: think that hockey, this would be the number one most

814
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 1: well known red Yeah. Thousand goals thousand, yeah. Alixevetchkin a

815
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 1: thousand goals in AHL is three one thousand goals, one

816
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,399
Speaker 1: thousand goals. It would be, it would it would break.

817
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 1: It would be bigger than home runs, be bigger than

818
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 1: than rushing yards, bigger than touchdowns. Whatever you want to say,

819
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: wins for a coach in NFL history, whatever number you

820
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 1: could say, A thousand goals. Yeah, that that cuts through everything,

821
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: and that would be the number one record people would know.

822
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 1: People our age growing up would know that record. Gen

823
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: Z would know up knowing that record, knowing it's a

824
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: thousand goals for a guy, it's nice. It's the biggest

825
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 1: even round number you could think of that someone can

826
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: get to. It's a thousand and instead it doesn't look

827
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: like he's gonna get there. It's sad. No, yeah means sad. Look,

828
00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: you never know. He could go on a little bit

829
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: of a tear and not looking ahead on the schedule.

830
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: But as we talk about, you know, you're forty years old,

831
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: you're already in rarefied air, still skating at the point,

832
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 1: obviously I mentioned Pete Rose, you get to your record

833
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 1: forty two fifty six, which he probably inscribed nine hundred

834
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 1: billion times before he passed. But for Ovechkin, yeah, it

835
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: would be nice. To get to a thousand, But yeah,

836
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,240
Speaker 1: that looks like a very difficult task at this point.

837
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: It looks so close at the end of last year,

838
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 1: and now now it looks so far away. We were

839
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: chronicling at the end of last season. Yeah, it's great.

840

Speaker 1: putting this content out for you every single night, well

855
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,919
Speaker 1: tomorrow Thursday night football. We've made it to another week

856
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,320
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Week ten is here and it's the

857
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 1: Raiders and the Broncos. Yeah. I would love to find

858
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:41,800
Speaker 1: a world to pick the Raiders in, but I can't.

859
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 1: I don't think there's a world. I don't think there's

860
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 1: an MCU world when you can travel to with Doctor

861
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: Strange where you would find one where the Raiders beat

862
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,320
Speaker 1: the Broncos tomorrow night. Yeah, No, it's that's really I

863
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: don't think you find one. Trying to figure out every

864
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:58,919
Speaker 1: bit of the calculation. Look, the Denver offense has been

865
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 1: fits and starts right and not not exactly a smooth

866
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 1: running operation. But outside of Max Crosby, I haven't cloned him. No,

867
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: I know Tom Brady's partial owner at all, but I

868
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 1: don't think it's transcended to hey, we got eleven of

869
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: this guy. So can you imagine eleven Max Crosby is

870
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,880
Speaker 1: running around on the field. That's a lot of tattoos

871
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,359
Speaker 1: that is That would be absolute chaos, man, that would

872
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: be Wow, You're gonna have to differentiate them by you know,

873
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,719
Speaker 1: special tattoos. It would look like a pollock painting, just

874
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: all the different colors everywhere all the day, and they

875
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: would still lose it. But it would be fun to

876
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: watch though. It be fun to see Max Crosby. So

877
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: let's do this, let's preview and pick some other things

878
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: that's gonna go along with this big Bronco victory. I

879
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 1: will tell you this tomorrow night. Give me three interceptions

880
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 1: for Gino Smith. Three? Three? Interesting. Now he's coming off

881
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 1: a hot game, right, coming off a hot game through

882
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 1: four touchdowns.

883
00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 3: Ok.

884
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,399
Speaker 1: Great, this is the best defense in the NFL. Give

885
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 1: me three interceptions by Geno Smith. In fact, I'll give

886
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 1: you this three interceptions and one within the first five

887
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:12,399
Speaker 1: passes he throws tomorrow night. One of the first five

00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:16,959
Speaker 1: passes he throws, Patrick doesn't it doesn't matter, It doesn't matter, Steve,

889
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 1: that water will get him at least once. Wow, I'll

890
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 1: get you like that's old score r wow, a hat trick.

891
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 1: Three picks for Gino Smith tomorrow night. One that may

892
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: we see eight and O'Connell in the first Oh no, no,

893
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,359
Speaker 1: you probably see him the whole game. Are all three

894
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 1: pick sixes?

895
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 3: Uh?

896
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:37,720
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, wow, now we're talking one within the first

897
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: five passes he throws. One is a pick six? All right?

898
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 1: So defense special teams uh plus four forty for a touchdown. Okay,

899
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: all right for the Denver. Can I can I get

900
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: onto one of the first five throws interceptions? Yeah, no,

901
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 1: I don't have that specifically. I think you'd have to

902
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,760
Speaker 1: contact your book. Oh damn, man, hey, can you create

903
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: a prop bet just for me? What do you got?

904
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 1: First five, first five? No, that's a great program for

905
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: kids to learn how to read and get ready. But no, no, no, no,

906
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: first five pick pick six, first five throws by Gino Smith.

907
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: One of them is going the other one pretty impressive.

908
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 1: Why is going the other way? I love that. I

909
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 1: think that's minus two fifteen. It's okay, wow, okay, so

910
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta get I gotta little more. Okay.

911
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,480
Speaker 1: And one of them is a tipped interception. Yeah, I

912
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:28,799
Speaker 1: mean the over for his interception is minus one eighty two.

913
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 1: Oh damn, I was close. I mean that's not a

914
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:37,439
Speaker 1: pick six, but I mean to throw an interception at

915
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 1: some point in the game three two. This is like

916
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 1: in Ocean's eleven. No, no, I want to rob three casinos. No,

917
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,439
Speaker 1: not one interception. Three interception. The minus one eighty two

918
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:52,760
Speaker 1: implies a six sixty six percent chance. Yeah, that's happening

919
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: tomorrow best defense in the NFL, Gino Smith, Absolutely, that's happening. Absolutely,

920
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:04,520
Speaker 1: Gino now denver total points in this game. I will

921
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:10,359
Speaker 1: go over forty. Over forty for the game is forty three. Yeah,

922
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 1: so they win forty three nothing, so forty three. I

923
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: will go over forty for the Broncos, right, number one.

924
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 1: You've watched this offense. But no, but it is a

925
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: different offense at home and on the road. Sure, they

926
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,959
Speaker 1: score tons of points at home, they don't on the road.

927
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: This game is at home. It's a Thursday night. The

928
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,560
Speaker 1: Raiders are terrible, they score a lot of points. Bo

929
00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 1: Nicks will light it up. You will see tons of

930
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 1: point totals across the board for the Broncos tomorrow night.

931
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 1: Lots of guys in play Fantasy. I got a big

932
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,359
Speaker 1: Fantasy bull prediction forty a minute two. But there's lots

933
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: of guys across the board. Maybe it's Courtland Sutton with

934
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: the big night, maybe it's Franklin, maybe they both catch.

935
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 1: But I will go over forty points for the Broncos

936
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,400
Speaker 1: tomorrow night. Wow, that's that's Insaneit you like that? Huh?

937
00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

938
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 1: I mean I love the bold proclamation. Of it all.

939
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 1: They score forty four against Dallas a couple of weeks ago, Uh,

940
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 1: thirty three against the Giants, only thirteen against the Jets.

941
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,959
Speaker 1: I mean that was overseas, but yeah, you're not at home. Uh.

942
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 1: And then twenty going back to the opener against Tennessee,

943
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,239
Speaker 1: different offensive, different offense at home. At this point they

944
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: go over forty. They just go up and down the field,

945
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,359
Speaker 1: and boy, tomorrow night hol Michael's is gonna say, these

946
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,239
Speaker 1: are the games I was afraid of. These are the

947
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,399
Speaker 1: games I didn't want to come back for. Right now,

948
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 1: forty three is the total. Kirk, how's your dog doing?

949
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,319
Speaker 1: You know, let's just have your dog do the rest

950
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 1: of the game. I see these videos on TikTok all

951
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 1: the time. A dog's doing podcasts, So why why don't

952
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,840
Speaker 1: we just don't let your dog come on here and

953
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 1: do some stuff. See now you're hitting the nerve for me.

954
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,080
Speaker 1: You know how much I'm tired of Kirk and his

955
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: damn dog. But if it was a talking dog like

956
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 1: the pilcarraf Is dog talk, they had dog with a

957
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 1: blow and the dog on the Disney dead Dog. No, no, no, no,

958
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 1: there's not Clay. It's just a new dog. It's just sure.

959
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,439
Speaker 1: I think it's the Is it the son of Ben?

960
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 1: Is it Ben? Something like Ben? Ben's deceased. That's starting

961
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,359
Speaker 1: right right, had a good run. Men's son. Now I'm

962
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 1: getting I feel like we're doing Star Wars now. I

963
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 1: think it might be Ben's son. I think son, not

964
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 1: Ben's son Robert Gillome, not Ben's son, but son of Ben.

965
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:18,239
Speaker 1: I think it might be son of men Cross. I

966
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 1: might be son of Ben. I'm not sure, but it

967
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 1: might be. It might be a third bull. I'll give

968
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 1: you a big Fantasy ball prediction. Yeah right, So number

969
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,680
Speaker 1: one three picks by Gino Smith, one within the first

970
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 1: five throws of the game. One is a pick six

971
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 1: over forty points for the Broncos tomorrow night. Your fantasy

972
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 1: start of the week, your spots started. I might have

973
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 1: to give me a fifteen point PPR game for r J.

974
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 1: Harvey starting to get a few more carries been a

975
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: big part of their game, plus the fact that he's

976
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 1: been their red zone guy. For sure, in a short week,

977
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: you're not gonna overload, You're gonna try to spread things

978
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:58,880
Speaker 1: out little bit. He's gonna get a little bit more carries.

979
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 1: Dobbins is not going to get all He's going to

980
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 1: start getting a little bit of a work. He's going

981
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,479
Speaker 1: to get in the end zone at least once catch

982
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 1: a couple of passes. Give me a fifteen point fantasy

983
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:08,760
Speaker 1: night for our guy. Yeah. I mean he's only plus

984
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,399
Speaker 1: two ten for the anytime touchdowns, so given his red

985
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:18,480
Speaker 1: zone proclivities of late, certainly an opportunist there and JK Dobbins,

986
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,200
Speaker 1: they've got to be judicious with his work clip given

987
00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 1: his history. Yeah, and also the lady you're getting the season,

988
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 1: and I'm sure that's probably the plan at some point

989
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:30,120
Speaker 1: it was we're dividing up responsibily a little bit more.

990
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 1: We don't want to burn out a running young running

991
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,320
Speaker 1: back early. We know he's good, but it's going to

992
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 1: be a little while before we get him in midway

993
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: part of the season. Now we start getting back and

994
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 1: they've trusted him in the passing game the last couple

995
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 1: of weeks even more so so they trust that he's

996
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 1: not going to get Bonix killed, which is always a

997
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,520
Speaker 1: nice plus for a rookie running back. That's usually what

998
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 1: keeps them off the field early on. But for Dobbins, yeah,

999
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,359
Speaker 1: you push it back. If it plays to script, then yeah,

1000
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 1: that fifteen is definitely doable. What can I get on

1001
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:00,640
Speaker 1: the plot? What do you think the odd are going

1002
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 1: to that? Parlay the Gino Smith part of it, the

1003
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 1: over forty points and the fifteen fantasy points PPR full

1004
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 1: point PPR. Take the Gino stuff out, you'd probably do well.

1005
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,680
Speaker 1: You're why the g But the Geno's in science, He's

1006
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 1: going to do it. Oh, so you think the odds

1007
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 1: are two, three and three? I in ts three I

1008
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:19,879
Speaker 1: t's is a three one pick six one and one

1009
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: within the first five Send along Deferman. Success is here again.

1010
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:24,839
Speaker 1: Smith will give you any odds you want on that.

1011
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 1: I'll give you whatever you want on that, Harvey, I

1012
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: need more specifics to I don't think the fantasy point

1013
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: we need to translate that into actual stats. But yeah,

1014
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,800
Speaker 1: we'll make it work. Exit up about a Fresco exit

1015
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 1: swollen dome. Coming up next. We got two big NFL
