00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 2: in the hell is true TV on direct TV? I

18
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 2: can't fight True TV. It takes me seven hours to

19
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: find truth TV. I never watched that channel. I never

20
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: watch it except this time of the year. Do you

21
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: know what true TV is? I think it's channel forty

22
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: one on Spectrum. Forty one on Spectrum, I do believe.

23
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: I don't know where it is a true TV.

24
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 5: You have to go to the two forties on DirecTV

25
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 5: two forty five to forty six. Somewhere up there you'll

26
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 5: find it t I think TNT is two forty five,

27
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 5: and then.

28
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 4: You just keep going from there and you'll you'll you'll

29
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:16,399
Speaker 4: bump into it.

30
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: Well, I couldn't find it on direct TV, but I

31
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 2: also have Spectrum downstairs in my house, so I watch

32
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: I think it's on channel forty one on Spectrum. But

33
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 2: you know what, after tomorrow, I'll never watch true TV

34
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: again never. I mean, do you are you a true

35
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: TV guy? I mean, do you watch anything on truth?

36
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 4: I can't say. I can't. I can't say that I'm

37
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 4: a true TV guy.

38
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 5: But I will say I do tune in to TNT

39
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 5: TVs because I mean, did a home in the NBA,

40
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 5: right the home in the NBA, and sometimes they have

41
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 5: other things that are going on with baseball and hockey whatever,

42
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 5: So I have checked it out some, but I can't

43
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 5: say that I have shows that I watch on those channels.

44
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I watch it not so much for

45
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: the NBA, which I do love the NBA, but I

46
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: watch it with Charles Barkley because I love Charles he's

47
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 2: the greatest. And I think that I don't even know.

48
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 2: He's not on True TV. He's on tnt YEA. It's

49
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 2: right because I have these games on four different channels

50
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 2: right now.

51
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: Makes me nuts, you know. But it's great.

52
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 2: I mean, this is the greatest time of the year

53
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: if you're a basketball fan, he said. But it's not

54
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: a great time of the year as far as the

55
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: University of Kentucky. And look, I live in a great

56
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 2: commonwealth of Kentucky, and it's not a good time right now.

57
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: People are walking around wearing black.

58
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: They really are.

59
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 2: Because John Calliperry, he's the coach over there been a

60
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: Division one head coach since he's been like twenty nine

61
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 2: years of age. Really, he's been around. He's coached New

62
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 2: MASSI coach Memphis, he coach Kentucky, and his teams have

63
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: really made the tournament in all but seven years which

64
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 2: the tournament was held when he was head coach.

65
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 3: And I get it. I get it.

66
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 4: You know.

67
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: They lost to Saint Pete's a couple of years ago

68
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 2: in the first round. They lost to Oakland on Thursday

69
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 2: night in the first round. And it's not really fair

70
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: to judge a coach or his team, or how good

71
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: a coach may be on a single elimination tournament. It's

72
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 2: not the best way to do it. But he's failed

73
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: in the NCAA tournament, and that's how he's going to

74
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 2: be judged, the team and the coach. I know it's

75
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: not fair, but that's the way he's going to be judge.

76
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 2: Bob's I'm sorry, then that's how they're judging him right now.

77
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 2: He fails in the postseason.

78
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 5: Well yeah, now he has failed in the postseason of

79
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 5: late Well, really he's filled outside of twenty twelve when

80
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 5: he first started the one and done era, he look,

81
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 5: he hasn't been able to come up. And college basketball

82
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 5: is one where experience matters more than anything else. These

83
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 5: teams in the tournament that are advancing are the older teams.

84
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 5: Did are guys with the fourth and fifth year players

85
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 5: did the guys with the graduate transfers. They're the guys

86
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 5: who couldn't go to the NBA early. And so you're

87
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 5: now playing with what I call a team, a team

88
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 5: of established like b B plus college players.

89
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 4: That are working together. And even though you may have.

90
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 5: A pluses that are eighteen, the experience in these moments matter,

91
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 5: and we have seen it, and there's been a shift

92
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 5: in college basketball where the teams that are really advancing

93
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 5: are the ones that are committed to having an older

94
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 5: team as opposed to you trying to play with a

95
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 5: bunch of youngsters.

96
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: It amazes me and I look, I look at Kentucky

97
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: and I tell you what. This is a crazy story,

98
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 2: but I'll tell you. When I was in high school,

99
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 2: I was the manager of the basketball team. I love basketball.

100
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 2: I used to keep the stats after the games. I

101
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 2: make the phone calls about twenty five newspapers in the

102
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 2: city of New York. I was in Brooklyn, Okay, and

103
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 2: I wrote a letter at the time to the late

104
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 2: coach Adolf Thrupp. I said, Coach, I'd love to go

105
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 2: to Kentucky and I like to be the manager of

106
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 2: your team. He wrote me back. I still have that

107
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: letter somewhere in my house. I've kept it and he says, son,

108
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: when you come here, look me up. That's what he said.

109
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 2: And then at the last minute, I got cold feet.

110
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 2: I didn't go to Kentucky. I stayed home in New York.

111
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 2: But it's a blue blood program. Well maybe it was

112
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 2: a blue broodpool I don't know, but the Wildcats at

113
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 2: Kentucky are one and four and the last five in

114
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,160
Speaker 2: CUAA tournament games. Okay, two of the losses have come

115
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 2: against teams that were seated fourteenth or worst eighty five

116
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 2: seventy nine loss to number fifth team Saint Peter's that

117
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 2: was back in twenty twenty two, and this past Thursday

118
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: to number fourteen Oakland.

119
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 3: Not good.

120
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 2: Prior to twenty twenty two, Kentucky was nineteen and oh

121
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 2: against number fourteen, number fifteen, and number sixteen ranked seeds

122
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 2: since nineteen eighty five?

123
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 3: What is wrong? Has everybody caught up to Kentucky?

124
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 6: Is it?

125
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 2: John Calla Perry's fold? Is the playing field now even

126
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: more level? Kentucky at one time was dominant. They were

127
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 2: the program in college basketball? What has happened? It hurts me,

128
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:30,599
Speaker 2: it really does.

129
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 4: You know.

130
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: It's like the Boston Celtics were in basketball on they're

131
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: back right now, the Montreal Canadiens in hockey. They were

132
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: there at one point in time, but it was always

133
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 2: Kentucky in college basketball. And now, sorry to say it,

134
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 2: maybe Kentucky has turned to a football school rather than

135
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: a basketball school.

136
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 5: Nah, I mean, I won't go so far as to

137
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 5: say that I just think college football is different.

138
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:53,279
Speaker 3: One.

139
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 5: There's more parody in college for college basketball than ever.

140
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 5: Teams are even they're more upsets during the regular season

141
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 5: than we've ever seen, and a lot of that is

142
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 5: because the talent has kind of been equally distributed amongst

143
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 5: the Power six teams and the mid major teams. And

144
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,719
Speaker 5: until well, I mean, as it continues to be that, yeah,

145
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 5: all your teams are gonna be susceptible to losing. I

146
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 5: think James Madison beat Michigan State early in the year.

147
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 4: James Madison wins a game in the tournament.

148
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 5: So we have to quit looking at college basketball where

149
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 5: we're used to the brand names dominating. I don't know

150
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 5: if we'll get back to that. My team, my school

151
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 5: North Carolina this year, they advanced to the Sweet sixteen.

152
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 5: Last year they couldn't make the tournament. You're going to

153
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 5: see a more volatile state of basketball programs because it's

154
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 5: really going to be hard to maintain a high level

155
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 5: of consistency unless you go all in and abandon the

156
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 5: one and done's and say that, hey, we're going to

157
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 5: be a program for the older players. We're gonna play

158
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 5: with grown men as opposed to little boys, and our

159
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 5: experience and our expertise is going to lead to wins

160
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:04,559
Speaker 5: more so than our talent.

161
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 2: Well, I will say this, if you're a fan of

162
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 2: the game of college basketball, you're pleased because if you

163
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 2: look at the tournament this year, you'd have to be

164
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 2: a genius. A computer couldn't pick it out because it's

165
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 2: so even, and you just don't know what's going on,

166
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 2: because I think the playing field, as we mentioned, has

167
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 2: leveled out. And then college basketball right now, there's so

168
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 2: much talent that's going around. I mean schools like Oakland.

169
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: It's a great situation right now if you're a college

170
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: basketball fan, because I don't think any school is going

171
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 2: to dominate. However, I do believe that Yukon will probably

172
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: repeat us to national champion because I think they're head

173
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 2: and shoulders above everybody else.

174
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 5: Maybe I mean like that, Look, that's a very real

175
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 5: assessment when it comes to Yukon. They're dominant. They have

176
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 5: a lot of confidence coming off the heels of winning

177
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 5: last year. They have size, they have shooters, they have

178
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 5: a coach who's super confident and what he does and

179
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 5: what he's a statfablished as the Yukon brand.

180
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 4: They're gonna be a tough altum.

181
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 5: It will be a team that has to rise up

182
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 5: to the challenge of knocking off the champs. And it

183
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 5: won't be the champs giving it to somebody. It's gonna

184
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 5: have to be someone rising up to the level of

185
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 5: play and how playing him on that night.

186
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

187
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: Look, I'm not going to judge a coach on the game,

188
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 2: but when you see a Yale beating Auburn, I mean

189
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 2: you gotta scratch your head. I mean something's different. I

190
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 2: mean I don't know. And look, I'm not blaming the coach.

191
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 2: And look, I would also say this if you're an athlete,

192
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 2: if you're between the ages of maybe eighteen and twenty

193
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 2: one twenty two, and you're playing for Auburn and you

194
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 2: see these kids from Yale, and these kids basically.

195
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 3: Are you know, smart guys, and you don't consider them.

196
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 2: Really top notch athletes, and you see the jersey that

197
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 2: says Yale. You're probably looking at these guys and saying,

198
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 2: you know, there's no way on God's green Earth they're

199
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 2: gonna beat us.

200
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 3: And they did.

201
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 2: And I don't say the same thing. When I was

202
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 2: a sports information guy at all Roberts University. We played

203
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 2: at Brigham Young, all right, and we came out of

204
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: Brigham Young and and Provo Utah and those guys and

205
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: Danny Agels playing for them. Then they laughed at us,

206
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 2: you know, and and we would looked at them and say,

207
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 2: there's no way in the world that they're gonna beat us.

208
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 2: And they beat us by thirty five forty points Brigham

209
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 2: Young did. That's just I think there's a mindset when

210
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 2: you see the jersey and the name of the team

211
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 2: in the jersey, you just don't get up for it.

212
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 2: I think there's a problem there. And look, you played

213
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: the game. I'm sure in the NFL is the same situation.

214
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 2: You see a team like a Carolina and you're playing

215
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: against them, you just you don't get up mentally as

216
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 2: tough as you would against another ball club.

217
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 5: I mean, I think that might that might have been

218
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 5: the case like back in the day, but I don't

219
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,959
Speaker 5: think that's necessarily the case now.

220
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 4: I think I think really it is one where.

221
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 5: The talent is more evenly distributed amongst all the college

222
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 5: basketball teams. So it's becoming harder to say, hey, I'm

223
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,719
Speaker 5: gonna roll the balls out I have Auburn on my chest,

224
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 5: I have North Carolina on my chest. I have Kentucky

225
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 5: on my chest, and we're gonna win by twenty and

226
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 5: college basketball fans have to get used to the fact

227
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 5: that just because your team has been a traditional power

228
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 5: doesn't mean that they're going to stay. I mean, just

229
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 5: think about the coach that just took the Michigan job.

230
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 5: He had Florida Atlantic in the Florida Atlantic was in

231
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 5: the final four. I mean, think about that fau was

232
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 5: in the final four. He needs to take the Michian job.

233
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 5: You have to be able to be comfortable knowing that

234
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 5: good basketball can be played everywhere. And look, as part

235
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 5: of our job on the media side of it, to

236
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 5: talk about how good these teams are that aren't household names.

237
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 2: Look, I think you made a great point. Though they

238
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 2: were Florida Atlantic. I think last year no one thought anything.

239
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 2: They gave them no respect whatsoever, and they sort of

240
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 2: snuck up on everybody and they were like the so

241
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 2: called Courte Cinderella. This year, people knew about Florida Atlanta.

242
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 2: They basically came back in a return with just about

243
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: every player they had on the team last year, and

244
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: they were ready for them. You know, I just don't

245
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 2: think there's a preparation factor that goes into maybe heavy

246
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 2: duty against teams like that. Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe I'm

247
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 2: wrong and totally wrong, but you know, when I see

248
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: Oakland beating Kentucky, there's something wrong there.

249
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 3: Look. I saw Oakland earlier this.

250
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 2: Year and Wright State in Dayton, Ohio beat the living

251
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 2: pants off of Oakland. Right State beat him. So I

252
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 2: didn't have a lot of respect for Oakland coming upto determined,

253
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 2: and in my bracket, I picked Kentucky, and I'm sure

254
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 2: a lot of people did too. I'm sure you picked

255
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 2: Kentucky to beat Oakland on Thursday on your bracket, didn't you.

256
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 4: Oh I did? I mean? I did?

257
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 5: I mean I didn't think that. I didn't think that

258
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 5: Oakland would deliver a knockout. But shoot, Oakland almost knocked

259
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 5: off Fency State. They go to overtime. A lot of

260
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 5: these games are like this because the talent is so even,

261
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 5: and until we are able to forget about yesteryear and

262
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 5: forget about those great legendary runs of these blue blood

263
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 5: teams and give the little guys or the unheralded guys respect, yeah,

264
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 5: we can continue to complain about. Man, I don't understand

265
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 5: what's wrong with Kentucky or auburner why these top teams

266
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 5: getting knocked off the game. The landscape is completely different,

267
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 5: and we have to accept the differences.

268
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 2: I'm going to know people are really just barreling and

269
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:06,880
Speaker 2: killing John Calla Perry.

270
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 3: They're gonna do that.

271
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 2: I'm going to back off a little bit because, look,

272
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: he's got six Final Four appearances. Four with him are

273
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 2: at Kentucky in eleven, twelve, fourteen, and twenty fifteen. And look,

274
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: he's just one or two coaches in the history of

275
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 2: Division one basketball, along with Rick Patino, has taken three

276
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,199
Speaker 2: different teams to the Final Four. He took UMass there

277
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety six and Memphis and twenty oh eight.

278
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,959
Speaker 2: So you can't say he's a bad coach. Maybe he's

279
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 2: got bad luck. He's got a young team, and you

280
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 2: hit it right on the head. This Kentucky team was very,

281
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 2: very young, and it's hard to compete. You know, a

282
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: young kid coming out of high school who basically basically

283
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 2: was the star of his high school team. Where you

284
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 2: got these blue chippers and you have to evolve and

285
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: work with other blue chippers, other five star guys to

286
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 2: mold into a team against a team like Oakland where

287
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 2: you got that kid who's twenty four to twenty five

288
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 2: years old.

289
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 3: There's a big difference there.

290
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,040
Speaker 5: I mean, it is gonna be a big differen This

291
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 5: is gonna be a big difference because you have to

292
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 5: understand how big the stage is. When you have the

293
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 5: one and done, you have a bunch of freshmen, The

294
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 5: stage is big, and so when the games are tight,

295
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 5: the pressure can overwhelm a young player. You have to

296
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 5: get comfortable playing and pressure games, and the only way

297
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 5: that you do it is by playing it. As we

298
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 5: talk about these young players playing against their first exposure

299
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 5: to the tournament. Meanwhile, these fourth, fifth and something with

300
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 5: the Kobe guys, six year players have been to the

301
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 5: tournament multiple times.

302
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 4: They understand what the pressure is going to be like.

303
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 5: They know how to settle into their rutune and handle

304
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 5: the expectations and the weight of the expectations that accompany

305
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 5: the top teams in the tournament.

306
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 4: That matters, and I think it's an an.

307
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 5: Overlooked part of why we're seeing what we're seeing when

308
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 5: it comes to these upsets.

309
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 2: Right now, I'm going to ask you a major question.

310
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 2: How are you doing in the bracket? I didn't want

311
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 2: to go there in the beginning, But how are you

312
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 2: handling yourself?

313
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 3: I haven't looked.

314
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 2: I'm sure you went to the Fox Sports Radio bracket

315
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 2: situation there. I did too, but I have if I

316
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: put my picks in there, I haven't gone back to

317
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 2: take a look, right stand. I'm embarrassed, to be.

318
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 5: Honest, Yeah, I'm not embarrassed. I think I've been let

319
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 5: down by some teams. Let me go and see what

320
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 5: my thing is, so I would say.

321
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 2: If you're going to see if my name is in

322
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 2: there too, I may not even made the list.

323
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 4: I can't.

324
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 5: So all I know is I've gotten sixty two percent

325
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 5: of my picks right to this point.

326
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 7: That's sure.

327
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 5: That's not great. That's not great. So I'm not up

328
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 5: there on the leader board.

329
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 4: But yeah, I've had.

330
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 5: Some teams let me down. Kentucky let me down. To

331
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 5: Auburn obviously let me down me too. I did pick

332
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 5: Grand Canyon, Uh, I mean, I'm honest, Like Wisconsin.

333
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 4: Let me down me too. Did you pick to Florida?

334
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, Florida because you expected Florida to be able.

335
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 3: To to win came of a BYU though in the

336
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: first round.

337
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 4: Oh you did pick that. Okay, that's that's a good one. Yeah.

338
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 4: So it's more so that so.

339
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 5: I kind of bottom out a little bit in the

340
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 5: round of thirty two. But in terms of what I

341
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 5: could have going to the sweet sixteen, I still could

342
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 5: be good. Freaking NC State surprised me. I didn't know

343
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 5: if they would be able to emotionally get up, but

344
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 5: they've done with you there, so I still could be good.

345
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 5: If the favorites take your.

346
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,560

380
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman, and we are Fox

381
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday on Fox Sports, already about twenty three past

382
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 2: the hour, and we talk about Major League Baseball, because

383
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 2: baseball started this season just the other day at six

384
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 2: am on the East Coast. All right, Dodgers playing the

385
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 2: Padres in South Korea. But but of course a problem.

386
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,719
Speaker 2: Baseball was overshadowed on their opening day with a major

387
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 2: scandal with their main face show Ayatani. It's unbelievable, really,

388
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 2: I mean, they can't catch a break. Baseball can't catch

389
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 2: a break.

390
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 3: Now.

391
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 2: News broke right after the game the Otani's translator and

392
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 2: longtime friend sidekick whatever at Perry Messahara, had placed bets

393
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 2: with a bookie in California, and obviously the sports gaming

394
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 2: is still illegal in California. He's done this now over

395
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 2: the three years, and a spokesperson for Otani said later

396
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 2: that Otani paid the bookie four point five million to

397
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 2: cover Musahara's gambling debts. This doesn't look good. This is

398
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 2: not good.

399
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 3: Now. There's a lot of speculation here, bucket.

400
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 2: Look the first thing I said, like, look, maybe this

401
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 2: but maybe this translator interpreter of Otani was placing bets

402
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 2: for Otani.

403
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 3: You know, you just don't know what's going on. It's

404
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 3: not a good picture.

405
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 2: It's not a good scene for Major League Baseball as

406
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: the season starts and this guy's second day with the

407
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,679
Speaker 2: LA Dodgers the face of baseball. Really, it doesn't do

408
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 2: any good for anybody, especially the game of Major League Baseball.

409
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,959
Speaker 5: No, I mean, it's certainly not a great look. Whatever

410
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 5: Otani's involvement is to fear that everyone has when you

411
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 5: allow gambling and online betting and all that to kind

412
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 5: of become a part of the sports league. You don't

413
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 5: want your players to look like they are implicated in

414
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 5: these scandals. And for Tani, the face of the franchise,

415
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 5: signing that blockbuster deal major market Dodge is supposed to

416
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 5: be like the debut, to have this break simultaneously, it's

417
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 5: a terrible look for baseball.

418
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 3: No doubt about that. Now.

419
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 2: Musahara, the translator, there was a news conference and they

420
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 2: said that he said that he was a bad gambler.

421
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: He said he never been on baseball, and he said

422
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 2: he also asked Otani to pay the bookie, the bookie

423
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 2: Matthew Bauer, to help Musahara. That's all he said, everyone

424
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 2: connected says that Otani does not gamble and was never

425
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 2: involved in the operation. But otani spokesperson came back and

426
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: he changed things around, disavowing Mussarawa's account of the matter

427
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 2: and accusing the translator of massive theft, of theft, stealing

428
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: money from Otani. They hired now a law firm and

429
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 2: are turning the matter over to authorities, and Otani's people.

430
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 3: Set up the interview.

431
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: They set up the interview so they said that this guy,

432
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 2: that translator of Musahara were stealing money for Otani. Look,

433
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,199
Speaker 2: these guys are supposed to be buddies, these guys are

434
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 2: supposed to be friends. He was this guy, he traveled

435
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 2: with him, he was his interpreter, and now he's stealing

436
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 2: money from him. Four point five millions a lot. I mean,

437
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 2: how long is it going to take OTII to realize

438
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 2: that he's short four point five mili.

439
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 3: I don't get it.

440
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: There's something fishy in Denmark over the year, and it's

441
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,360
Speaker 2: not good for Major League Baseball, not good for Otani.

442
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: And I tell you right now, and you played in

443
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 2: the National Football League. If this was a football matter,

444
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 2: he'd be gone, he'd be suspended already we saw things

445
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 2: like that in the National Football League. These players and

446
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 2: the league does not stand for anything like this. Those

447
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: guys will be on the sidelines right now. And a

448
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball I guess they can't afford to have

449
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:45,439
Speaker 2: Otani not playing.

450
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 5: I think they have to wait. I think they're trying

451
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 5: to be fair. I mean, the story breaks, and you know,

452
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 5: the stories are inconsistent when it comes to who did what.

453
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 5: What they're trying to do is just just wait and

454
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 5: get enough of the information to make those things. It's

455
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 5: not a great look that you have, like these allegations

456
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 5: against your best player, but you would like to give

457
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 5: him the benefit of doubt until proven otherwise.

458
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 4: And so I want to give him the benefit of doubt.

459
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 4: We'll see, he said.

460
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 5: The interpreter took the money from him, and I'll just

461
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 5: take him at his work.

462
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 2: You know, you got to feel a little bit for

463
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball. They can't catch a break. First of all,

464
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 2: who I get it, they want to play in South

465
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 2: Korea because of Otani. I mean, there's a big deal there,

466
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,160
Speaker 2: But why would you do it an opening day?

467
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 3: You know, the National.

468
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:35,120
Speaker 2: Football League will never ever open their season at six

469
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 2: am on the East Coast. They would never I meane

470
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 2: possibly because they don't have to. Maybe Major League Baseball

471
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 2: thought that had to But baseball can't catch a break.

472
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 3: I'll give you an example.

473
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 2: You know, the highlight of the year, the Playoffs and

474
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 2: World Series, basically coincides with the opening of the National

475
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: Football League. Something's got to change. They have to admit

476
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 2: that they cannot compete with the NFL. They just can't compete.

477
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,760
Speaker 2: They got to do something about that. When they have

478
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: their Hall of Fame seeremonies in July on a Sunday,

479
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 2: they still play games, they should separate that. Maybe they

480
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 2: should make it when baseball isn't played and have it

481
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 2: a certain day so everybody could watch that and attend that.

482
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 2: It's almost like an afterthought. Baseball games are played the

483
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 2: day they have the Hall of Fame ceremonies. That's kind

484
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 2: of crazy. What what the NFL does They make a

485
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 2: big ceremony out of it with the Hall of Fame

486
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 2: game to start their season. Baseball needs to take some

487
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 2: pages out of the NFL to make them more relevant.

488
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 2: And it's just they're burying themselves. And at one point

489
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 2: in time baseball was king. You know that was the

490
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 2: game not now.

491
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 3: I think bucket.

492
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong, but if you were to rate the

493
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 2: most popular sports right now in our country, it would

494
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 2: be the NFL, which is A, and maybe college football

495
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 2: one A and after that maybe college basketball. I think

496
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 2: college basketball may have probably has it over the NBA.

497
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 2: That's my take on it.

498
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 5: I mean, look, I don't disagree with you. There's something

499
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 5: to be said for with the NFL and what college

500
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 5: football has been able to do. It's also a changing

501
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 5: time when it comes to baseball. I don't know why

502
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 5: baseball has kind of lost some of the fandom, why

503
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 5: fans haven't necessarily followed it as much, but it has

504
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,240
Speaker 5: been that way like growing up in the seventies and eighties,

505
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 5: obviously baseball was everything.

506
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 4: The All Star Game was big.

507
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 5: It's just a different game, and as we've kind of

508
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 5: gone to a quick fixed generation where we want our

509
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 5: TV and our live events to be consumable within a

510
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 5: two hour period two and a half max. Baseball's length

511
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 5: also drove them crazy. There wasn't a lot of offensive action,

512
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:43,360
Speaker 5: the games took a long time, and so it's hard

513
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 5: to keep the younger fan in.

514
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 4: But in regards to this scandal, yeah.

515
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 5: I mean it's not a great look, but I think

516
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 5: there are a lot of things that are playing in

517
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 5: baseball and why it's falling behind.

518
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 4: Football is the popular sport in the country.

519
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 3: You're exactly right. He's Bucky Brooks.

574
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 2: is the root of all evil that's coming right up.

575
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 2: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy from speaking of Bucky, it's

576
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 2: bucking about eight nine minutes for now. But the gambling,

577
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 2: let's talk about gambling right now. We just talked about

578
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 2: Tony and what's going on there with his interpreter, uh, betting, gambling.

579
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: You know, I gotta ask you a question. Is it

580
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 2: good for sports? Is gambling really good for sports? Because

581
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 2: I look, it's great revenue for sports, no doubt about that,

582
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,160
Speaker 2: Great for the leagues, It's a good pipeline for sports,

583
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 2: great for media advertising. I mean it's all you see

584
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 2: on TV and radio and here on radio, you know,

585
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: all these websites for gambling.

586
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 3: I think it's great for that, But what about the

587
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 3: public bucket? Is it really good?

588
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 2: I think when you see an NFL game and a

589
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 2: guy drops a pass in the end zone, you got

590
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 2: to scratch your head and say, wait a minute, maybe

591
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 2: had money on the game.

592
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 10: You know.

593
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 3: I think there's too many ifs and gambling is causing that.

594
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 3: Do you agree with that?

595
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 2: And maybe I'm just just look looking at it in

596
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 2: a different sort of manner. And maybe I'm wrong, maybe

597
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 2: a big time run.

598
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 5: I think you may be looking at a different manner.

599
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 5: What's the excitement level that you have over March Madness?

600
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 5: Why do we have so much excitement over March Madness.

601
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 5: We can fill out brackets for everything, but why what

602
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 5: is it about March Madness that drives us crazy? Where everyone,

603
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 5: even the casual fan participants, is because it makes us

604
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 5: have a vested interest in the product. Gambling does the

605
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 5: same for the fan, whether.

606
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 4: We like it or not.

607
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 5: If you put money down on a sporting event, you're

608
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 5: more likely to watch. The NFL, the MLB, everyone is

609
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 5: benefiting from the gambling relationship. What you don't want, though,

610
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 5: is the integrity of the game mess with because of

611
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 5: a player has been gotten to in those things.

612
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 4: And what we've seen.

613
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:32,440
Speaker 5: Leagues are putting in strict standards and rules regarding gambling.

614
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 5: You know, the NFL they want let players stay in

615
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 5: casino hotels, like their teams couldn't stay at the Pro

616
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 5: Bowl it was at ah and when it was in Vegas,

617
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 5: it couldn't be at a hotel with the casino.

618
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 4: It had to be at a separate hotel. So they

619
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 4: had to do that.

620
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 5: They're trying as much as they can to make sure

621
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 5: that the integrity of the game, the purity of the

622
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 5: game remains the same while also bringing in a faction

623
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 5: of fans that it would certainly drive up the interest

624
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 5: in those games.

625
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 2: But I would say that every game and every player

626
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 2: scrutinized because of gambling right now more so than before.

627
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 2: And I see people going nuts. And I'll give you

628
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 2: an example. This story really shocked me. And that's where

629
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 2: I want to go in this direction. The coach of

630
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Cavaliers, JB. Bickerstaff. He said just the other

631
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 2: day that he received threats from gamblers last year and

632
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 2: reported to the NBA. He was asked us this past

633
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: Wednesday night about sports gambling following comments made by the

634
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: All Star forward from the Indiana Paces, Tyrese Halberburton. He

635
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 2: said that sometimes he feels like a prop This is

636
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 2: what Bickerstaff said, quote that got my telephone number, that

637
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: was sending me crazy messages about.

638
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 3: Where I live and my kids and all that stuff.

639
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 3: This is what Bickersef said just the other day. Quote.

640
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 2: So it's a dangerous game and a fine line that

641
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 2: we're walking for sure, all right, He said, he told

642
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 2: security that the gambler was and he knew where it

643
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 2: was located. But there were no charges and they found

644
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 2: the guy. And with sports gambling growing in the US,

645
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: this is what Bickerseeff continued to say. This is his

646
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 2: fourth year with the Cavaliers. He said his job has

647
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 2: become more challengenging when you hear stories like that. And

648
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 2: this is one that's gone public. I'm sure there's others

649
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: that have not gone public. This is not a good situation.

650
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: This is sort of frightening. Really, these guys are putting

651
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 2: big money on games. Coach maybe makes a decision, takes

652
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 2: a guy in, puts a guy out, whatever he may do.

653
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 2: Gamble's not hoppy, loses a lot of money and he

654
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 2: blames it on the coach. Next thing you know, coach

655
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 2: is getting threatened.

656
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 3: It's not healthy. I don't like it. I really don't.

657
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 3: It's frightening.

658
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 4: Really, it's frightening. But here's what has happened. Fans have

659
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 4: more access.

660
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 5: Fans have been clamoring for more access, So now we

661
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 5: have given fans more access than ever to our athletes.

662
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 5: They can contact their athletes directly via Twitter, via Instagram,

663
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 5: DM them, send them text messages, all of those things,

664
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 5: so they have the ability to feel like a bigger

665
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 5: part of it. We've also by welcoming in the fans

666
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 5: in a way that is very intimate and personal, We've

667
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 5: given them a bigger say.

668
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 4: They feel like they're chiefly responsible for the results that

669
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 4: have and on the field.

670
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 5: I would say that when a gambler, or when a

671
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 5: fantasy football or basketball or baseball fan gets upset over

672
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 5: touches and points and I have you on my fantasy team, Hey,

673
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 5: that has nothing to do.

674
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 4: With the player. So they do feel like props.

675
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 5: Players do feel like inanimate objects that are just used

676
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 5: for the enjoyment of the fan. And fans don't recognize

677
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 5: that they've crossed over this line by treating players like commodities. Yeah,

678
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 5: it's a dangerous game where the gambling, where the fantasy,

679
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 5: all of those things.

680
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 4: The reactions that happen on the field shouldn't affect you

681
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,040
Speaker 4: in real life.

682
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 5: Beyond just the emotional part of being a fan. But

683
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 5: when you decide to put your money down on that,

684
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 5: you can't blame the player.

685
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 4: That's the risk that you.

686
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 2: Took, right, there's no doubt about that. I'm going to

687
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: go back to what Bickerstaf said. He said, it brings

688
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 2: added pressure, It brings a distraction to the game that

689
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 2: be difficult for players, coaches, referees and everybody that's involved.

690
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 2: And I think that we really have to be careful

691
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 2: with how close we let it get to the game

692
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 2: and the security of people who were involved in and

693
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 2: not going to go one step further. Minnesota Timberwolf send

694
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 2: to Rudy Gobert. He said he felt gambling is quote

695
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 2: hurting our game. He made the comments after he made

696
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 2: a money gesture towards the NBA officials Scott Foster, implying

697
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 2: gambling was influencing the way the game was being called.

698
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 2: This is unbelievable. He was fined one hundred grand, the

699
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 2: maximum of the NBA could give on the terms of

700
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 2: the collective bargaining agreement that went into place last year.

701
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,600
Speaker 2: This is during the game that Gobert made a gesture

702
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 2: of money gesture towards the official. So if the player

703
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 2: is doing that, what about the people in the stands

704
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 2: who were wagering on their phones.

705
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 3: They're saying wow, If a player is saying that, what

706
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 3: do you think I mean?

707
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 2: There's some gray matter over the games of the NBA

708
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 2: right now in the minds of many, which is not healthy.

709
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 3: I don't think it's good. I really don't.

710
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 5: I mean, it may not be good, but you can't

711
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 5: put the two page back into two. Once they made

712
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 5: those agreements with the damling entities, we have to get

713
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 5: used to the pressure being different.

714
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 4: They're gonna have in game batting that pops up on

715
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 4: the screen here shortly in the NBA, and we'll see

716
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 4: every major sports league follow suit.

717
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 5: It is a part of it, just like these sports

718
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 5: have used fantasy Let's talk about football in particular. There's

719
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 5: a reason why they're more football fans now. Fantasy football

720
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 5: expanded the fan base because they're not only brought in men,

721
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 5: but it brought in women. You can now put together

722
00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 5: a collection of people that you randomly picked and say

723
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 5: this is my team. But because all of these players

724
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 5: play on different teams, I now have to watch sports

725
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 5: all day to see what my team did. Think about

726
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 5: the amount of conversation you had with your friends and

727
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 5: the first thing they talk about is, oh man, my

728
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 5: fantasy team and this I got you in my fantasy team.

729
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 4: YadA, YadA, YadA. Gambling is an extension of that, and

730
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 4: what it has done.

731
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 5: Is, yeah, it makes everybody uncomfortable, but it's also created

732
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 5: a rabid fan base that tunes into every game.

733
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 3: There's no doubt what you say is one thousand percent correct.

734
00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 2: Fantasy football has elevated the nation football like to another level,

735
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: certainly as popular. I think one of the reasons being

736
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 2: the fact that less is more. They only play seventeen games,

737
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 2: and every game means so much more where baseball is

738
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 2: one sixty two and it's just too long, too drawn out.

739
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 2: So that's number one, but number two fantasy football. I

740
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,760
Speaker 2: would go to a game and sit in the stands

741
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 2: and I hear people cheering, and I go to a

742
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 2: Bengals game in Cincinnati and they're cheering for the other team,

743
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 2: and I turn around, I say, what are you doing? Say, well,

744
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 2: I have that player in my fantasy league. I think

745
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 2: that people get to know names of players through fantasy football,

746
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 2: So there's no doubt about that that people are more

747
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:36,400
Speaker 2: in tune to who's playing the game because of fantasy football.

748
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: But I don't think fantasy football is as damning or

749
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 2: as as damaging as placing major money bets. Fantasy football

750
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 2: is just like you know, guys getting around playing a

751
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,319
Speaker 2: game of poker on a Friday night. I mean, maybe

752
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 2: I'm way off based on that, but fantasy football really

753
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:54,760
Speaker 2: has elevated the interest and knowledge of fans knowing players

754
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 2: in the game of the NFL, no doubt about that.

755
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 4: It has. And it's also lined dear pocketbook. Just think

756
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 4: about daily fantasy.

757
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 5: Daily fantasy where there's a payout at the end of

758
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 5: the day is however you.

759
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 4: Want to do it. It's akin to gambling.

760
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,959
Speaker 5: You're gambling on the performance of a person or team

761
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 5: and you get a net cash out. Once fantasy football

762
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 5: became a big part of the daily existence, it was

763
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 5: only a matter of time before gambling also was online gaming.

764
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 5: Online betting was allowed to come into it because it

765
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 5: creates the same kind of emotions. And there's some fuzziness

766
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 5: between fantasy football and gambling, but not really when you

767
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 5: really think about the process.

768
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's easy. It's at your phone, it's easy to

769
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 4: keep up with. That's why more people are doing it.

770
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 2: And I may be mistaken, but I think fantasy baseball

771
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 2: was on the scene before fantasy football. And I remember

772
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 2: back in the day, people were doing fantasy baseball and

773
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 2: they were taking their pencils and doing before computers, and

774
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 2: you just can't do it. I mean, people just don't

775
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 2: want to be bothered. I don't think on a daily

776
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,319
Speaker 2: basis with baseball. We're in football. It's perfect this once

777
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 2: a week man. I think fantasy baseball tried. It was

778
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 2: not successful because there are too many games. That's the problem. Yeah,

779
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 2: I mean too many games, no doubt about that.

780
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 3: All right. He's Bucky Brooks.

781
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 2: I'm Andy Furmanha together, we are Fox Sports Sunday on

782
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. And this guy knows it all, he

783
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 2: really does. Why because ask Bucky it's next.

784
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,359
Speaker 1: Don't listen no Fox Sports.

785
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 2: As Bucky coming right up. Okay, he's Bucky Brooks. I'm

786
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 2: Andy Furman. We are Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio,

787
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 2: and we're live from the Tirack dot Com studio.

788
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 1: So here we go.

789
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 3: Let's go and ask Bucky.

790
00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: Let's do it?

791
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 3: All right? Are you ready? I know you're ready. Yeah,

792
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,839
Speaker 3: You're always ready? All right? How and we talked about

793
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 3: gambling before.

794
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 2: What's going on with the situation with the Cleveland Cavaliers

795
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 2: and the head coach and whatever it might be getting threats?

796
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 2: How can we control sports gamling, or should we control

797
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 2: sports gambling?

798
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 4: No, I don't think we should control it.

799
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 5: I think we've accepted this part of the daily existence

800
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 5: is more so just making sure that you protect the

801
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 5: game and make sure that the gambling influences don't impact

802
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 5: what happens on the field, of.

803
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 4: The court or the diamond. Nah, but you can't regulate

804
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 4: on the outside of it.

805
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 3: All right, So you're happy the way it is right now?

806
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:24,479
Speaker 4: Yes, very happy.

807
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 3: I hear what you're saying.

808
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 2: Okay, Next, should the NCAA basketball games be played.

809
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 3: At the home court of the higher seed rather than

810
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 3: at neutral sites?

811
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 2: No?

812
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,760
Speaker 5: I think in neutral sites it gives it a different flavor.

813
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 5: It makes it balancing even for everyone involved.

814
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 4: I like it.

815
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 5: I like being in big arenas. I like them way

816
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 5: they have it filled out. When you play at somebody's

817
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 5: home court, it's a little smaller. It may be more intimate,

818
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 5: but to me, I would rather see it in neutral

819
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 5: sites all the time.

820
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:55,920
Speaker 3: All right, there you go.

821
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 2: Do you like the idea of the women's and the

822
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: men's NCAA final perhaps being played on the same night

823
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 2: on the same court.

824
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it gives it a high school feel.

825
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 5: If we did it on a Monday night, like the

826
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 5: Final Four, was in the same location. It would make

827
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 5: it a basketball festival. And what you would get is

828
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 5: very similar to what you have in high school.

829
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 4: You have the women's game.

830
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 5: It takes place right before the men's game, So that

831
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 5: would be a seven o'clock women's game, a nine o'clock

832
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 5: men's game. It's really no different than how we have

833
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 5: grown up doing it. Yeah, I can see some benefit to.

834
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 3: It, you know, I'm going to say this.

835
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: I think the women right now where they stand, and

836
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 2: they're making many, many big inroads in where they stand

837
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 2: and ratings wise, whatever, it may be an interest, for sure,

838
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 2: I don't think they want to take a second seat

839
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 2: and be the prelim game to the men's game. I

840
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 2: think they want their own stage in their own arena,

841
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,360
Speaker 2: on their own night. Maybe I'm mistaken about that, but

842
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 2: maybe it may eventually come to be that there'll be

843
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: a doubleheader the same place. But I think the women

844
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 2: want their own deal.

845
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 3: All right.

846
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,640
Speaker 2: Why would a college team not accept a bid to

847
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 2: the n I and a lot of them have not

848
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 2: done that this year.

849
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 4: I mean, it depends on how the coach feels about

850
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 4: the team. There's some teams man, when.

851
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 5: You're a coach, you're just ready for the season to

852
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 5: be over. You know, the team is a lot to manage,

853
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 5: the personalities are a lot. You don't like how the

854
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 5: team is playing. You just want to be done with it.

855
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 5: So I can understand why some teams are declining the

856
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 5: n T bids. And with the portal opening up at

857
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 5: the end of the season and guys having that window,

858
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 5: sometimes you want to be able to divert your attention

859
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 5: away from the game and get focused on at who's

860
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,440
Speaker 5: the next generation of players that we need to bring in.

861
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 4: How can we make this program better? I can see

862
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:50,919
Speaker 4: why they don't want to decline it, all.

863
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 2: Right, Bucket Brocks on GLIG, you mentioned the word the

864
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 2: portal was the portal did open for college basketball last Monday,

865
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 2: the day after the selection Sunday. Shouldn't they have waited

866
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 2: until to the NCAA tournament for that portal to open.

867
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 5: It seems like they should have waited because what you're

868
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 5: doing is you have the increase in teams and coaches

869
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 5: that decline to participate in the NT and some of

870
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 5: them suggested with the porter opening up, they wanted to

871
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 5: focus on the portal. They wanted to see how they

872
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 5: could upgrade the prant that the program going forward. Uh yeah,

873
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 5: they have to figure out if they need to move

874
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:25,440
Speaker 5: to portal open date.

875
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 2: All right, I have one more question, but I think

876
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 2: it deserves a longer answer, so I'm gonna hold that

877
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,439
Speaker 2: question until after the top of the hour.

878
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 3: So he is Bucky Brooks. I'm man defirming.

881
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:44,560

894
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 2: Because I had a question I wanted to ask you

895
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 2: and ask Bucky, and I rolled it over till now

896
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 2: because I think it deserves some time, and I know

897
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 2: you have a good answer for me. The baseball season

898
00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 2: open on Wednesday, six am Eastern times. South Korea was

899
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 2: the place Dodgers padres is this season for baseball opening

900
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 2: too soon. I find it very difficult to handle a

901
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 2: baseball season opening in the month of March.

902
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:48,319
Speaker 3: That's just my take.

903
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 5: I mean it's a little early. I understand what they're

904
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 5: trying to do. They're trying to continue to expand their brand.

905
00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:01,319
Speaker 5: They want to continue to extend borderly baseball, and they've

906
00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 5: been able to do that. It was a little early

907
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,359
Speaker 5: for my taste, Like in West Coast getting up early.

908
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 5: I'm a Dodgers fan. I still couldn't make it. I

909
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:11,719
Speaker 5: was like I'd catch out to score. But for some diehards, look,

910
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 5: it's well worth the investment, and over there South Korea

911
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 5: it continues to expand and grow the game on a

912
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 5: global level.

913
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 3: Maybe I'm alone here, but I was lost.

914
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,719
Speaker 2: I had no idea till the eleventh hour that there

915
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 2: was even a baseball game that meant anything. That day

916
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 2: because I was so engulfed with the NCUBA Basketball Tournament.

917
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 3: I think the baseball got lost in it.

918
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: I think baseball has to pick and choose their spots,

919
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 2: and to open up during the week of the NCUBA

920
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,280
Speaker 2: Tournament is not a good call. To have your playoffs

921
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: when the NFL is opening this season not a good call.

922
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 2: They really need to Readjust like in radio they say,

923
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 2: adjust your time clock. I think baseball needs to readjust

924
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 2: their calendar. That's what they need to do. The game

925
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,879
Speaker 2: is not bad. Everybody loves baseball, summertime under the sun,

926
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 2: go out there, have a good time. You could socialize,

927
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 2: but you got to do something to get it more relevant.

928
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 2: And I think what they're doing right now is competing

929
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 2: and banging themselves in the foot against other entities that

930
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 2: they can't compete with. And one of those, the National

931
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 2: Football League, just can't do it.

932
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 4: They can't do it.

933
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,319
Speaker 5: But you know, leaving the cant where it is, it's

934
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:18,240
Speaker 5: always going to fall in the middle of the playoff

935
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 5: hunt for the National Football League. If they back it

936
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 5: up a little bit, move it into the month of March,

937
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 5: that gives them a chance to maybe have.

938
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 4: Everything ending early September, mid September games.

939
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 2: In November last year, watching November and not baseball months,

940
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,399
Speaker 2: in my mind, I just I just can't.

941
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 5: So with the one hundred and sixty two games, there

942
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 5: a lot of games in between, and owners are not

943
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,040
Speaker 5: going to relentlinquish those games because each game is a

944
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 5: money opportunity from the TV standpoint, So it is what

945
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:49,800
Speaker 5: it is.

946
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 4: Baseball people have to get mad.

947
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 5: They will have to do a better job of convincing

948
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 5: their fans that the product is good enough that you

949
00:43:56,080 --> 00:44:00,319
Speaker 5: can pry yourself away from the TV watching I fail

950
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:02,280
Speaker 5: and focus a little bit more on MLB.

951
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to mention a word that maybe people

952
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 2: right now have no idea what it means. Double header.

953
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 2: You know, in my youth, there was a deal on

954
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,880
Speaker 2: Sundays at one o'clock. I go to Yankee Stadium and

955
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 2: you see two games for the price of one. You know,

956
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,280
Speaker 2: right now you'll never see a double header because owners,

957
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,720
Speaker 2: as you mentioned, want to get that second revenue stream,

958
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 2: so they'll make it two different two separate dates, and

959
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 2: sometimes when there's a rain out to have a day

960
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 2: night double header, but there's two separate admissions because they

961
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 2: want to collect that money.

962
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:29,800
Speaker 3: That's what they do.

963
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 2: So forget about double headers. You'll never see them anymore.

964
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,399
Speaker 2: Maybe in the mount of Leagues, but not in the majors.

965
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 3: No more. Double headers. They were fun, they really were.

966
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 2: You get there one o'clock and you be home by seven,

967
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 2: seven thirty eight o'clock Garding Yankee Stadium on a Sunday,

968
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 2: and it was great. And get in there for fifty

969
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 2: cents seventy five cents in the bleachers and that's it.

970
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 2: Now you mentioned something about baseball expanding, and that's why

971
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 2: you knew they were playing in South Korea. You know,

972
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 2: we see it all the time. We see expansion all

973
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,880
Speaker 2: the time. The NBA expanded that in season tournament, all right.

974
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 2: I remember back in the day the playoffs in the

975
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 2: early grounds, they were best three out of five. And

976
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 2: now the roll seven game series. Why money, money, they

977
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 2: want the green cabbage money, they want the gelt baseball.

978
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 3: They increase the season, They increased playoff games. That's what

979
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 3: they do. Money.

980
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 2: NFL won from twelve games to fourteen to seventeen, and

981
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,440
Speaker 2: you know now they're gonna go to an eighteen game season.

982
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 2: College football moving from twelve, they're to sixteen all right,

983
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:20,319
Speaker 2: it's gonna happen.

984
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 3: They're doing it.

985
00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 2: It's all about the money, that's what it is. And

986
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,520
Speaker 2: now the NCAA basketball tournament, they went from sixteen games

987
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,919
Speaker 2: back in the day to thirty two to sixty four

988
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 2: to sixty eight now and maybe more. They're talking now

989
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 2: of an eighty team NCUBA basketball format. All right, and

990
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 2: one coach, coach John Calipowi, says, I don't know. I

991
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,799
Speaker 2: don't think we should go in that direction. Hey, John,

992
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,279
Speaker 2: you know what the WAYUA team is playing. They're going

993
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 2: to have one hundred and fifty game teams in there.

994
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 2: Because you're getting knocked out in the first round anyway.

995
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 2: But your take on a potential eighty game, eighty teen

996
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 2: tournament for the NTAA basketball tournament, look, I mean, I.

997
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,160
Speaker 4: Think you keep it spending your water down what the

998
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 4: champion is.

999
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:09,360
Speaker 5: And I will say this, the NCAA champion, as is

1000
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 5: presently recognized, is not the best team in the college basketball.

1001
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 4: It's the hottest team. It wins a different thing this

1002
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 4: year when you go to a tournament format.

1003
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 5: I think this year in the conference championship, around only

1004
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,240
Speaker 5: twenty of the winners, twenty of the third two teams

1005
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 5: were able to win. So like less than half of

1006
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 5: the number one seeds going in, we're able to win.

1007
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 5: When you get to this point, you expand you have

1008
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,880
Speaker 5: everyone get in. You do that, you weakend some of

1009
00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 5: the specialness of the tournament. Like, look to me, I

1010
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 5: like that you have to qualify to make it. I

1011
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:45,600
Speaker 5: like that sometimes you enter the postseason conference tournament needing

1012
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 5: to win at all to get there. I think it

1013
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 5: produces lively basketball. It changes the pressure, the pressure is

1014
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 5: felt on the court, and as fans.

1015
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 4: We love that.

1016
00:46:55,600 --> 00:47:00,919
Speaker 5: We love feeling or going on that emotional roller coaster ride,

1017
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 5: sometimes with your team, sometimes with an undog or a

1018
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 5: team that you're just following. So yeah, I think expanding

1019
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 5: it is not a great idea.

1020
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:09,359
Speaker 3: I'm with you there.

1021
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 2: I think the beauty of the NC DOUBLEA Tournament, at

1022
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:13,959
Speaker 2: least in my mind, is the so called Cinderella teams.

1023
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 2: When I see teams like Loyola of Chicago, Saint Peter's, Oakland, Yale,

1024
00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 2: you know, the mid majors, I think that's the beautiful part.

1025
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:21,480
Speaker 11: You know.

1026
00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:24,439
Speaker 3: I find myself rooting for Oakland last night in that game.

1027
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 3: I mean, you just want to.

1028
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 2: See these kids who really and truly are on a

1029
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 2: bit stage and never have been before and never will be.

1030
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 3: You're rooting for them.

1031
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 2: And if they think they have expand to eighty teams,

1032
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 2: you may see fewer mid major teams, and I.

1033
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 3: Think that's the tournament's main draw. You hit it right

1034
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 3: on the head, you know, winning the NC doublea tournament,

1035
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 3: you're not basically.

1036
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 2: The best team in the country. What you are is

1037
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,279
Speaker 2: the best team in the tournament. It's a tournament, that's

1038
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,799
Speaker 2: what basically it is. And there are some teams right

1039
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 2: now that are on the outside looking in, maybe like

1040
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 2: a Saint John's that maybe should have been in there.

1041
00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 3: Maybe they would have been beaten, beat.

1042
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 2: Some of these teams up. But it's the best team

1043
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 2: in the tournament. And I think if they expand to

1044
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 2: eighty teams, you're gonna have more Power five programs, and

1045
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:10,919
Speaker 2: that means teams from smaller schools one big conferences, they're

1046
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 2: gonna be out. They'll be out in the cold. So

1047
00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 2: eighty teams does not necessarily mean more smaller schools in there.

1048
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 2: I think they want more biggest schools in there. That's

1049
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:19,600
Speaker 2: what's going to happen.

1050
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:23,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, they won't because the watchability factor.

1051
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 5: As much as we love the upsets in those things,

1052
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 5: as fans, we have short term memory loss, and we

1053
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 5: won't tune in and watch them play on Sundays and

1054
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 5: we won't watch them play shortly thereafter. So as much

1055
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 5: as I love seeing the little guys win, I also

1056
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 5: know for TV, brand name sell everything. And if you

1057
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 5: don't have a brand name in the final four, you

1058
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,160
Speaker 5: don't have a brand name in the tournament. It's hard

1059
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 5: to convince someone to watch and stay past their normal

1060
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,920
Speaker 5: bed times to see a team full of guys that

1061
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 5: no one, no one knows about.

1062
00:48:57,880 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 2: Right, And I tell you what, Greg Campy, I love

1063
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,359
Speaker 2: the guy I don't know. I don't know whom from Adam,

1064
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:03,880
Speaker 2: but I've seen him on TV right now. He's a

1065
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 2: household name. The coach of Oakland, been there for forty years.

1066
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 2: He coached that school when they were the division school

1067
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 2: of Division two school. And he made an argument about

1068
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 2: the situation, about the magic of the underdog, and he

1069
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 2: was quoting Jimmy Chitwood. Jimmy Chitwood, the fictional character from

1070
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,399
Speaker 2: the movie Hoosiers, which I'm sorry you've saw that movie.

1071
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:26,000
Speaker 2: I know you saw Hoosias, right, His character was inspired

1072
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 2: by Bobby Plump. Bobby Plump was their real life player.

1073
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,279
Speaker 2: He hit the game winning shot to lift Mylon High

1074
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 2: School Mylond of Indiana Mylon High School to Indiana State

1075
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,800
Speaker 2: High School Championship way back in nineteen fifty four. In

1076
00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 2: camp Be, the coach of Oakland, said he would support

1077
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:43,640
Speaker 2: expanding the tournament if it helps the smaller programs like

1078
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,919
Speaker 2: Oakland to make the field. And he says, the only

1079
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,800
Speaker 2: way we're going to stay in it that I'm for it.

1080
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 2: And he says he loves the underdog. He says, we

1081
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:52,839
Speaker 2: like the little guy. Why does everybody love Whosias? Why

1082
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:54,000
Speaker 2: the greatest movie?

1083
00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 4: Why?

1084
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 2: He says, because it's the little guy. That's what college

1085
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 2: basketball is. That's why it's one of the greatest events

1086
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:01,280
Speaker 2: in the world.

1087
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:02,239
Speaker 3: That's why it is.

1088
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it is like everyone loves the feel

1089
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:11,319
Speaker 5: good story. Everyone loves the underdog. Everyone wants to feel like, Hey,

1090
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 5: on any given day, my favorite team can.

1091
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,319
Speaker 4: Knock this off. The thing is that momentum doesn't last.

1092
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 4: It's a nice story, right, It's a nice story.

1093
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,280
Speaker 5: People do a great job of telling that story ahead

1094
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 5: of title games and those things. But it doesn't resonate

1095
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 5: with the viewers. The viewers don't see those stories in pregame.

1096
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 5: They don't stick around to watch the games.

1097
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 4: They want to know.

1098
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 5: If they don't know the players, they want to know

1099
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 5: the coach and they want to know the brand. Everybody

1100
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 5: wants to be a part of a tribe. And even

1101
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:45,760
Speaker 5: though we talked about like the benefits of the portal

1102
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,759
Speaker 5: and nil and those things, some of the teams have

1103
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:50,319
Speaker 5: been able to do it the right way, keep them,

1104
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:54,320
Speaker 5: retain their main players, celebrating them all that they've benefited

1105
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 5: from that process. I think all of this is about

1106
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 5: making were that you have a level of continuity in

1107
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 5: your program.

1108
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,960
Speaker 4: The only way you can do is older players. I

1109
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 4: like the younger players.

1110
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 5: I like the smaller schools, but it's hard for those

1111
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 5: programs to sustain a high level of success, particularly after

1112
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 5: they win their coach leafs.

1113
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, So Florida Atlantic, that's what happened right there.

1114
00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 2: You know, it's all about the money. I mean, he's

1115
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 2: probably tripling his salary going from Florida Atlantic to Michigan.

1116
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:24,800
Speaker 2: But you know, coaching staff at Nancy State, they disagree

1117
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 2: with the coaching staff in Oakland about the expansion, says

1118
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:28,920
Speaker 2: I want to expand.

1119
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:30,920
Speaker 3: I think that there should be some expansion.

1120
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 2: I think there are too many student athletes who do

1121
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 2: not get the opportunity to play in the postseason. Let

1122
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 2: me tell you something, coach, let me tell you something.

1123
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 2: Right now, you have every opportunity in the world to

1124
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:41,880
Speaker 2: go to the NC DOUBLEA Tournament.

1125
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 3: What do I mean by that. There's like three seasons.

1126
00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:46,279
Speaker 2: You got the preseason in college basketball to got a

1127
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 2: gear up, then you got the college conference season, and

1128
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:50,720
Speaker 2: you got the college conference tournament.

1129
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,840
Speaker 3: So if you win your conference, you're going to go.

1130
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:55,719
Speaker 2: If you're in a smaller conference, you have the opportunity

1131
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,920
Speaker 2: to basically win the college conference tournament and then go

1132
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 2: to the NT Double A Tournament. So there's plenty of opportunities.

1133
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 2: I remember several years ago in the Horizon League, Milwaukee

1134
00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 2: University of Milwaukee had a losing record, a losing record,

1135
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 2: and they won the Horizon League tournament and they went

1136
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 2: to the Nancy Double A Tournament. You have every opportunity.

1137
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,920
Speaker 2: If you don't go, shame on you. That's what it's

1138
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 2: all about. Really, you have the chance. It's not a

1139
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 2: tournament like a participation deal where everybody got to trophy.

1140
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 2: You got to win and play and get in there.

1141
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 2: That's the way it is.

1142
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the only way that that you can do it.

1143
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,319
Speaker 5: You got to earn your way into the tournament. That's

1144
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,759
Speaker 5: the best way, is the most satisfying way to do it.

1145
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,200
Speaker 5: They have to make sure that they do a really

1146
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 5: good job of putting themselves. All these teams that were

1147
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,360
Speaker 5: on the bubble are missed out the putting their teams

1148
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:46,240
Speaker 5: on the back and winning.

1149
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:48,680
Speaker 4: That's what it comes down to you.

1150
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 3: And then yeah, you're right.

1151
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 2: And the coaches at these mid majors, I mean the

1152
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,799
Speaker 2: University of North Carolina Wilmington. A coach over there said

1153
00:52:55,520 --> 00:52:57,040
Speaker 2: he was at a mid major. You thought he should

1154
00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 2: have the opportunity. He was at UNCW Wilmington. They won

1155
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 2: twenty eight games, and if they didn't win the championship game,

1156
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 2: no matter what I did, he wouldn't have the opportunity.

1157
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 3: That's just the way it is.

1158
00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,719
Speaker 2: That's the way you can change the rules. I mean,

1159
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 2: Wilmington is not on the same par as North Carolina

1160
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 2: Chapel Hill.

1161
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 3: It just does not. And look, if you win, you

1162
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,439
Speaker 3: deserve to go. That's the way Oakland won. They're there.

1163
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,880
Speaker 2: You know, if you can't win in your conference, how

1164
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 2: in the hell are you gonna win the tournament?

1165
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:25,720
Speaker 3: So why do you deserve to be in the tournament?

1166
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 4: Right?

1167
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:28,879
Speaker 3: Saint Peter's won their conference. They're there.

1168
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:31,400
Speaker 2: They beat Kentucky several years ago. They were there this

1169
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 2: year and they lost, but they got there. You know,

1170
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 2: there's a reason to play. It shouldn't be just given

1171
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 2: to you. And I think in this day and age,

1172
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 2: everybody wants it given to them. No, it's not given

1173
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 2: to you.

1174
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 3: You got to earn it. You earned it, Bucky. You

1175
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:49,600
Speaker 3: weren't just giving an NFL contract. You earned it. Geez.

1176
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, And everything you want, I mean, the competition is

1177
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 5: supposed to be there, supposed to.

1178
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,399
Speaker 4: Be a maritimecy. Earn what you get, Earn what you want.

1179
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 5: And what these things would do is it would make

1180
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,240
Speaker 5: those teams, those players stick by that creed.

1181
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 4: Hey, we won't earn.

1182
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 5: Everything that we get today, so we got to be

1183
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:09,880
Speaker 5: at our best when our best is required. Let's make

1184
00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:11,719
Speaker 5: sure we take care of the stuff that we need

1185
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 5: to take care of to get the dub. That's what

1186
00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 5: this stuff is really all about.

1187
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:18,319
Speaker 2: You're exactly right. No one says it better than Bucket Brooks,

1188
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,840
Speaker 2: and you can get Bucky on Twitter at Bucket Brooks

1189

Speaker 2: you if you got the guts. I know, it's just

1191
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 2: it's rough. You're intimidated. There's no doubt about that. You

1192
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,279
Speaker 2: get on the phone line with Bucket Brooks is an

1193
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:32,160

1217
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 2: Sunday posted right after we get off the year. Now,

1218
00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 2: this is right up your rally bucket, Brooks. Which it's

1219
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 2: football and no one knows football better than you, all right.

1220
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,239
Speaker 2: These guys entered the NFL with a great fanfare, big

1221
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 2: expectations and maybe maybe maybe I'm wrong, but maybe the

1222
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:44,120
Speaker 2: best talent we've seen at that position in a long

1223
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:46,840
Speaker 2: long time. But now a lot of people don't do this,

1224
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 2: but we will. Now three years later, the twenty twenty

1225
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 2: one class looks like a failure. Let's take a look,

1226
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,800
Speaker 2: and I'm looking at the quarterbacks here, Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson,

1227
00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:01,000
Speaker 2: Trey Lance, Justin Fields, Mac and we're going to go

1228
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:02,920
Speaker 2: through these guys and see what went wrong. Let's not

1229
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 2: with Trevor Lawrence because he's probably the only successful situation

1230
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 2: and that whole deal. Trevor Lawrence, a number one pick,

1231
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 2: the only twenty twenty one first round quarterback, may be

1232
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 2: still viewed as the answer for his drafting team, the Jaguars,

1233
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:19,200
Speaker 2: your team. But even Lawrence really has yet to blossom

1234
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 2: into that kind of quarterback. They looked at what went

1235
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,959
Speaker 2: wrong with the rest, but let's stick with Trevor Lawrence.

1236
00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,520
Speaker 2: Right now, you're familiar with him. Let's talk about Trevor.

1237
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 2: And I got to believe part of the problem was

1238
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,840
Speaker 2: his first coach when he was there, before Doug Peterson

1239
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 2: was there. I mean, I think that may have been

1240
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 2: a problem.

1241
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:41,759
Speaker 5: Look, I'll say this about the quarterbacks that have been

1242
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 5: drafted recently. As much as we want to pin the

1243
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,680
Speaker 5: blame on players, I would say a lot of is

1244
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 5: it about the infrastructure that's in place when those quarterbacks

1245
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 5: came into the building. Either they didn't have the proper

1246
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 5: play caller, the proper protection, or the proper number of

1247
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 5: playmakers around him to be able to thrive.

1248
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:03,600
Speaker 4: So that's one part of it. The other part is

1249
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:04,919
Speaker 4: the evaluation part.

1250
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 5: I believe that a lot of this stuff has got

1251
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:13,280
Speaker 5: because set unrealistic expectations for what we think a quarterback

1252
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:13,880
Speaker 5: is going to be.

1253
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 4: We are on our side, the media side.

1254
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 5: We love storylines, right, we love to blow these guys

1255
00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:25,000
Speaker 5: up and maybe overembellish their individual accomplishment. So rather than

1256
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 5: give them a pro comparison that is at a minor level,

1257
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 5: we took it to the nth degree and compare guys

1258
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 5: to Hall of famers. And when you do that and

1259
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 5: you bring these guys into the building, they try them

1260
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 5: out onto the field. Fans are expecting the number one

1261
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 5: pick to look a certain way, to play a certain

1262
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 5: way from day one, without the knowledge or the understanding that, hey,

1263
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,520
Speaker 5: John Elway wasn't John Elway when he first came into

1264
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 5: the league. Most guys have to adapt to the league

1265
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 5: and have to acclimate to playing at the league at

1266
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 5: a high level. But right now, we want guys to

1267
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 5: be great right out there the gate. In one year

1268
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:02,840
Speaker 5: from college. You wanted to come in and.

1269
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 4: Set the league of blaze.

1270
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 5: And without coaches that are willing to meet them halfway,

1271
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 5: with systems that are similar to what they did in

1272
00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,440
Speaker 5: the high school and college, it's hard to count on

1273
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:12,720
Speaker 5: a young quarterback.

1274
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:13,320
Speaker 4: To do that well.

1275
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 2: Part of that problem is the fact that when you

1276
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 2: get drafted its number one as a quarterback, getting the

1277
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 2: big money, they put you run and throw you with

1278
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,400
Speaker 2: the wolves. Back in the day, you'd stay on the

1279
00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:25,160
Speaker 2: sidelines and learn a little bit. You've been tutored by

1280
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 2: the masters, and you have the clipboard on the sideline.

1281
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 2: Doesn't work that way anymore. Let's go back to your guy,

1282
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,280
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville. I guess it's only when he

1283
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 2: sees it was back in twenty twenty two they were

1284
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 2: nine and eight. But I think that the first year

1285
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:39,160
Speaker 2: on the Urban Maya, when they were two and eleven,

1286
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,600
Speaker 2: that probably was a problem with him, that that whole team.

1287
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:44,560
Speaker 2: I believe at that point in time on the Urban

1288
00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:46,960
Speaker 2: they were somewhat dysfunctional.

1289
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 5: Not somewhat, they were dysfunctioning. It wasn't the greatest environment

1290
00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 5: for a young quarterback to step into. But we have

1291
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 5: to remember most of the time, if you drafted at

1292
00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 5: the top of the board, you drafted by a franchise.

1293
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 5: There are teams that has been bad for a long time.

1294
00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 5: So you're gonna have to deal with a lot of

1295
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,720
Speaker 5: stuff as the team is rebuilding and trying to grow

1296
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:10,440
Speaker 5: into being a contender. For Trevor, that was a lot

1297
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 5: of that. You had a head coach who was learning

1298
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:15,959
Speaker 5: how to go from college to the pros. He's trying

1299
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 5: to figure out how to do basic things within it

1300
00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 5: while also nurturing a young quarterback who's also activating to

1301
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 5: the game.

1302
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 4: It proved to be too much.

1303
00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 5: It impacted Trevor didn't have a great ricky season. Had

1304
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:31,640
Speaker 5: to shake through that and kind of find his confidence

1305
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 5: in year two and then injuries more at year three.

1306
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,840
Speaker 4: He hasn't been what everyone wanted him to be, but

1307
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 4: he still has promise and potential. That's why he's still there.

1308
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:41,440
Speaker 2: And now they got to find the number one receiver

1309
00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:45,000
Speaker 2: to replaced Swidley because he's gone. So this could be

1310
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 2: a tough, long road ahead for Trevor Lawrence.

1311
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 3: Although what did he have.

1312
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 2: He was a pro bowler, passed over four thousand to

1313
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 2: twenty five touchdowns, eight interceptions, So he's got the talent,

1314
00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 2: as you say, he needs to surround and cast to

1315
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 2: help him get to that next level. To Zach Wilson

1316
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:05,040
Speaker 2: a little bit on the Jets played for BYU, and

1317
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 2: I think, as you always mentioned, maybe because he was

1318
01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,400
Speaker 2: young or maybe didn't face a lot of elite talent

1319
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 2: playing for BYU, that was the problem adapting to the

1320
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:18,120
Speaker 2: National Football League as a Jet. He's twelve and twenty wins,

1321
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:22,240
Speaker 2: the starter, twenty three touchdowns, twenty five interceptions and a

1322
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:25,160
Speaker 2: completion percentage about fifty seven percent. I think one of

1323
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,919
Speaker 2: the problems also not only not playing on a good team,

1324
01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 2: I think playing in that major media market in New

1325
01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,040
Speaker 2: York with is such scrutiny. I think that didn't help

1326
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:33,439
Speaker 2: him either.

1327
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 4: It absolutely didn't have m jets. Fans have no patience

1328
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 4: for it.

1329
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,400
Speaker 5: He might have come in maybe a little arrogant, appeared

1330
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 5: by all the accounts to try and tone some of

1331
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:46,640
Speaker 5: it down. Last year, learning behind one of his favorite

1332
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,960
Speaker 5: players and mentors and Aaron Rodgers, I thought he made progress,

1333
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 5: but it's so difficult to be able to do that

1334
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 5: under the watchfulize of the city. New York City and

1335
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,840
Speaker 5: the street state look highest standards, and everyone's not built

1336
01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:05,800
Speaker 5: to kind of meet those standards. And once they sent

1337
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:09,480
Speaker 5: some weakness in Zach Wilson, look the city crush him.

1338
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:11,840
Speaker 5: He kind of hurt himself by not playing at a

1339
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 5: high level, but no one was there to support him.

1340
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 5: It'll be interesting to see what happens when he goes

1341
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,960
Speaker 5: to his next place, because now he's a broken quarterback

1342
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 5: with a lot with a lot of talent, who wants

1343
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:25,560
Speaker 5: to take on that reclamation project to see if they

1344
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 5: can unlock some of the stuff that made him the

1345
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:28,000
Speaker 5: second overall hit.

1346
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,160
Speaker 2: Amazing move over to Trey Lance right now, here's an

1347
01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:33,760
Speaker 2: interesting story because I think the forty nine is new

1348
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,120
Speaker 2: when they drafted him, that this guy probably would be

1349
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 2: a project. He's not going to start immediately. Came out

1350
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 2: of North Dakota State, only one full season of experience.

1351
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,200
Speaker 2: I was back in twenty nineteen after the COVID Robin

1352
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,720
Speaker 2: robbed them of the junior year, and I think they

1353
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers realized that, and then they made

1354
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 2: a big move. They they traded up from number twelve

1355
01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 2: to take him the third pick overall. He was behind

1356
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:59,800
Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo. In twenty twenty two, he became the starter

1357
01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 2: because Garoppolo had that surgery on his shoulder. But after

1358
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: two games he got hurt, no touchdowns at deceptions, and

1359
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 2: next day he fractured that ankle. This the rest of

1360
01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,800
Speaker 2: the year, so I think the jury may still be

1361
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 2: out on Trey Lance. Didn't have much of a shot,

1362
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:18,000
Speaker 2: not much of experience in the college level, and now

1363
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:20,000
Speaker 2: he's going to maybe learn a little bit under dak

1364
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:22,960
Speaker 2: Prescott and Dallas as a backup on the Cowboys.

1365
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:28,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, Trey Lance says a few different things, right, it's

1366
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:33,560
Speaker 5: a double d's right. It's just the lack of development

1367
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:38,760
Speaker 5: and just the lack of discipline and attention to detail

1368
01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 5: when it came to making sure that he was ready

1369
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 5: to play. This guy in the league with only one

1370
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,240
Speaker 5: season of starting under his belt. He did it at

1371
01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:50,120
Speaker 5: a lower level and he didn't play his final season.

1372
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,600
Speaker 5: So when you think about coming into the league with

1373
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 5: so few starts and to think that he was going

1374
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 5: to be ready to play at a high level in

1375
01:02:56,560 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 5: the National Football League, that's tough. So they probably missing value,

1376
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:04,400
Speaker 5: waited the player, and projected him wrong that he was

1377
01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,120
Speaker 5: going to be a high.

1378
01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:08,680
Speaker 4: Level player right away. Then you get into a situation

1379
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 4: where you have a team that kind of has like

1380
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 4: conflicting agendas.

1381
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 5: Right, the agenda normally is to develop the young quarterback.

1382
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,760
Speaker 5: But to develop the young quarterback while also fielding a

1383
01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:24,080
Speaker 5: Super Bowl contender, it's tough, and unfortunately for Trey, he

1384
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 5: didn't have the durability.

1385
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,000
Speaker 4: To go with it. So you don't have the development,

1386
01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:28,440
Speaker 4: you don't have.

1387
01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:32,240
Speaker 5: The durability because he's injured, he's not unable to play.

1388
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,520
Speaker 5: It's time for them to move on, and they needed

1389
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 5: to have a quarterback that was consistent. He cracked the

1390
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,280
Speaker 5: door open, gave brought Pretty a chance, and away they go.

1391
01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:40,320
Speaker 5: And it's now brought.

1392
01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 4: It was brought pretty show. So go to Dallas.

1393
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 5: We'll see if he gets an opportunity in a year

1394
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:50,680
Speaker 5: or so after Dak Prescott. But right now he's a

1395
01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:52,280
Speaker 5: backup quarterback trying to find his game.

1396
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,720
Speaker 2: There you go, Justin Fields right now, another backup quarterback

1397
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:57,920
Speaker 2: was on the Bears. Now he's in Pittsburgh, be back

1398
01:03:57,960 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 2: up to Russell Wilson. I don't know why they said

1399
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 2: that it. I won't know why they Why wouldn't they

1400
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,600
Speaker 2: make a competition between Wilson and Justin Fields. But the

1401
01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:08,080
Speaker 2: problem with Justin Fields they made him into a runner,

1402
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 2: and he was not really a running quarterback at Ohio State.

1403
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 2: In twenty twenty two, he rushed for over eleven hundred

1404
01:04:13,000 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 2: yards with the Bears, So I think they used.

1405
01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:18,560
Speaker 3: Him in the wrong manner. Am I correct on that?

1406
01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 2: I mean, he's not a running quarterback when they made

1407
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:23,760
Speaker 2: him a running quarterback and with eleven hundred yards he

1408
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 2: joined what Michael Vick and Lamar Jackson has the only

1409
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,400
Speaker 2: quarterbacks to rush for one thousand yards in a year,

1410
01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:30,400
Speaker 2: and that was in twenty twenty two. Let's see what

1411
01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 2: he does in Pittsburgh if in fact he's even given

1412
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:33,000
Speaker 2: a chance.

1413
01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, he would get his chance down the line in Pittsburgh,

1414
01:04:36,760 --> 01:04:38,560
Speaker 5: whether it's this year, next year, he eventually had an

1415
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 5: opportunity to show show every what he's built on, and

1416
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 5: he'll have a chance to take the lesson that he learned,

1417
01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:50,400
Speaker 5: work on those parts of the games become an even

1418
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 5: better player. I would say that he was probably mismanaged

1419
01:04:55,480 --> 01:05:00,280
Speaker 5: is probably a better description of what took place in Iago.

1420
01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,480
Speaker 5: Didn't have anything around him. Yeah, they upgraded last year.

1421
01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:05,240
Speaker 5: They get DJ Moore and those things, but let's not

1422
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,560
Speaker 5: add like it was a great offensive lineup around Justin fields,

1423
01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 5: particularly compared to what Kvid Williams is stepping into. But

1424
01:05:12,440 --> 01:05:15,120
Speaker 5: for Justin fields, it didn't work out. He goes to Pittsburgh,

1425
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,840
Speaker 5: and when he goes to Pittsburgh it might actually benefit

1426
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 5: his game. When I look at him, I see a

1427
01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,880
Speaker 5: lot of the Russell Wilson traits in terms of like

1428
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,760
Speaker 5: how he goes about his business. Arthur Smith should have

1429
01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:28,960
Speaker 5: a lot of fun because they can legitimately compete and

1430
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:32,160
Speaker 5: the best player can ultimately win job and tried out with.

1431
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 2: The Steelers and last, but not least, from that same

1432
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,240
Speaker 2: class in twenty twenty one, Mac Jones, who you'll see

1433
01:05:38,280 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 2: again because now he's a backup to Trevor Lawrence in Jacksonville.

1434
01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 2: This is a guy that helped Alabama win a national championship.

1435
01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:47,840
Speaker 2: But really, even at Alabama, I don't think he was

1436
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:51,479
Speaker 2: viewed as a tremendous prospect. He came in there picked

1437
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 2: fifteenth by the Patriots, had a pretty good rookie year.

1438
01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 2: He beat out Cam Newton for the starting job. He

1439
01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:59,040
Speaker 2: passed for over three thousand yards twenty two touchdowns. But

1440
01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:01,360
Speaker 2: I think one of the problems was was Josh McDaniel's

1441
01:06:01,520 --> 01:06:05,600
Speaker 2: left as the offensive coordinator and Belichick had Matt Patricia

1442
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:07,920
Speaker 2: come in there as the offensive coordinator. This guy's a

1443
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 2: defensive guy. I think that ruined Mac Jones. That was

1444
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:11,520
Speaker 2: a major problem.

1445
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:14,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I won't put that on Matt Patricia.

1446
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,040
Speaker 5: I think Mac Jones ruined his own self, his powdy faces,

1447
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:20,840
Speaker 5: his lack of accountability when it came to some things,

1448
01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 5: some of the little acts that he got in trouble

1449
01:06:23,920 --> 01:06:26,920
Speaker 5: for on the football field, clipping and tripping guys and

1450
01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 5: all of that other sertingess he didn't exhibit the mental

1451
01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:32,800
Speaker 5: toughness that needed to be exhibited at the position.

1452
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, Matt Patricia then going to.

1453
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 5: Like Joe Judge and those guys Offen scoring Bill Billop.

1454
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:44,840
Speaker 5: It just it didn't works a lot of different change

1455
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,520
Speaker 5: and nuance, and that's tough on any young player. But

1456
01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,720
Speaker 5: I would say before we can even assign the blame

1457
01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:52,480
Speaker 5: to the coach for filling to provide Jones with like

1458
01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:56,720
Speaker 5: the proper set up in blueprint to succeed, I would

1459
01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:59,439
Speaker 5: say Jones fail, turned the ball over, didn't get better.

1460
01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:04,800
Speaker 5: His sirle and sour demeanor impacted the team. He has

1461
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 5: to be in a better place mentally so he can

1462
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 5: handle some of the challenges that you.

1463
01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 4: Have in whatever he does.

1464
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,400
Speaker 2: And you'll agree that the grade for the twenty twenty

1465
01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:17,320
Speaker 2: one class probably is an F really and truly well,

1466
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 2: though Trevor Lawrence helps.

1467
01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:21,480
Speaker 3: Him a little bit, maybe a D minus maybe not good.

1468
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:23,840
Speaker 4: He's one player like they have to be down in

1469
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:24,440
Speaker 4: the F field.

1470
01:07:25,320 --> 01:07:28,240
Speaker 3: There you go, all right, he's Bucky Brooks. He's not

1471
01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:29,800
Speaker 3: an F. He's an A A plus.

1472
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2: men's tournament this year.

1548
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:27,400
Speaker 3: What do you think?

1549
01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:30,200
Speaker 2: I think there may be more interest in the women's tournament.

1550
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,839
Speaker 2: They're going to have a superstar there in Kaitlyn Clark,

1551
01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:35,320
Speaker 2: then in the men's tournament, What do you think about that,

1552
01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:36,519
Speaker 2: I'm going with the women.

1553
01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 5: You know, I would say with the women is like

1554
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:47,560
Speaker 5: the game product is a little different. The names are recognizable,

1555
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,840
Speaker 5: you have a lot of respect for the skill level

1556
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:53,320
Speaker 5: that they're bringing to the table. So yeah, I would

1557
01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:53,880
Speaker 5: go with the women.

1558
01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:57,800
Speaker 4: I think they have stars. They have notable names, and

1559
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:00,400
Speaker 4: we all love stars. Whether they play the of the

1560
01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 4: hero or the villain. We'll get a.

1561
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 5: Chance to see that Dawn Staley in South Carolina be

1562
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:06,920
Speaker 5: painted as the villain because of their rough and tumble

1563
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:10,400
Speaker 5: style of play. Caitlyn Clark may be healed as the

1564
01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:13,120
Speaker 5: hero just because she's doing it. She's done it on

1565
01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:15,000
Speaker 5: the stage. He got her team there to the final

1566
01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 5: last year. I think there definitely is something to the

1567
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:23,040
Speaker 5: women's game growing in popularity and it's really exciting to watch.

1568
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,000
Speaker 3: The question I have is that, yes, she's the star

1569
01:12:26,600 --> 01:12:28,400
Speaker 3: of college basketball, not just the women.

1570
01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:30,840
Speaker 2: I'm talking about Kaitlyn Clark. Who's the star of the

1571
01:12:30,920 --> 01:12:35,040
Speaker 2: men's I mean John Goakley, I mean Golkie, the kid

1572
01:12:35,120 --> 01:12:37,320
Speaker 2: from Oakland, I mean, and They're out. I mean other

1573
01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:39,240
Speaker 2: than that, is there a star. I mean I watched

1574
01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:43,040
Speaker 2: South Carolina last night. This DJ burns he's he's like

1575
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 2: shock really, I mean he could very well be. But

1576
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:48,240
Speaker 2: is it They're not promoted? No one cares. I mean,

1577
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,320
Speaker 2: I don't understand why the men's team does not have

1578
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:55,240
Speaker 2: a player that would zero win and say, hey, I

1579
01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 2: gotta watch this is much see TV watching this guy.

1580
01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:01,320
Speaker 2: I don't feel that way on the men's side, But

1581
01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:04,040
Speaker 2: as far with the women, I gotta see Caitlin clock play.

1582
01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:05,120
Speaker 3: I want to watch her play.

1583
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:08,599
Speaker 4: Yeah. No, she's nice.

1584
01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:10,639
Speaker 5: I mean, she is different, she has a nice game,

1585
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:15,680
Speaker 5: She is fantastic. Her team is good. I watched them

1586
01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 5: play in the Big ten tournament and they had to

1587
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:21,559
Speaker 5: rally from behind, so they have enough toughness the things

1588
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:23,200
Speaker 5: that you like in that regard.

1589
01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:25,840
Speaker 4: Now it's just about seeing if she can finish the

1590
01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 4: deal this look.

1591
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 5: It is a great opportunity to watch a bunch of

1592
01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:32,800
Speaker 5: different women that can ball out, from her to Juju

1593
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 5: Watkins at sc Angel Reese and those ladies at LSU.

1594
01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:41,000
Speaker 5: Just a lot of recognizable names that the play is good.

1595
01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:42,920
Speaker 2: I'm glad you say you hope she could boil up

1596
01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:44,400
Speaker 2: because there's going to be a lot of people saying

1597
01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 2: that if the IOWA gets bounced out before the championship

1598
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,559
Speaker 2: game where does not win the championship, they'll say she's

1599
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:52,640
Speaker 2: not the goat. I mean, it's so ridiculous. I think

1600
01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:55,599
Speaker 2: these people just want to be heard and have a take,

1601
01:13:56,000 --> 01:13:58,840
Speaker 2: and the take is so moronic. I mean, she is

1602
01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 2: the goat right now now. She's the greatest player in

1603
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:04,680
Speaker 2: women's basketball as we speak here. What she's done and

1604
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 2: what I mean that not just because of the points

1605
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:08,639
Speaker 2: that she scored or what she's done for a team.

1606
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:09,840
Speaker 3: What she's done for the.

1607
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:13,759
Speaker 2: Game of basketball, not women's basketball, but basketball in general.

1608
01:14:13,800 --> 01:14:16,880
Speaker 2: On the college level. Everybody's involved. Everybody wants to see

1609
01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:19,479
Speaker 2: what she's doing. So if they get bounced out, she's

1610
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:22,760
Speaker 2: still the goat. But in many people's minds, and you'll

1611
01:14:22,800 --> 01:14:25,880
Speaker 2: see you'll read columns on it. I'm sure that you

1612
01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,160
Speaker 2: know she's no longer the goat because she didn't win.

1613
01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:29,360
Speaker 2: And that's ridiculous.

1614
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:30,439
Speaker 7: You know it, and I know it.

1615
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:34,519
Speaker 3: It'd be crazy nuts. So people are gonna say.

1616
01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:37,439
Speaker 4: It is crazy. It is crazy, but it's good to watch.

1617
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,439
Speaker 3: Thank you, Bumpy Brooks. You're setting me up about and

1618
01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:40,960
Speaker 3: barrel betting.

Speaker 1: I know you are.

1620
01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:43,280
Speaker 3: You're agreeing with me and you're setting me up. Then

1621
01:14:43,320 --> 01:14:45,160
Speaker 3: you're gonna destroy me. But that's what we're gonna do.

1622
01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:48,160
Speaker 2: He's Bucket Brooks and Andy Firman. Now we talk about

1623
01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:49,920
Speaker 2: the game that you're owning.

1624
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:51,320
Speaker 3: You own this game, you really do.

1625
01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:54,519
Speaker 2: Bucky Brooks has names that can change your team. Bucky

1626
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:56,840
Speaker 2: Brooks is the guy. Bottom barrel betting is next. The

1627
01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:59,400
Speaker 2: gender gap may be closing, but the winning gap is

1628
01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:02,960
Speaker 2: spreading thanks to Bucky Brooks. Why was bottom barrel betting?

1629
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:07,120
Speaker 2: It's freaking next bottom barrel betting right around the bed.

1630
01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:08,960
Speaker 2: It's about twelve minutes before the top of the hour.

Speaker 12: won last week four to one. I don't know what

1641
01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:39,680
Speaker 12: the deal is, but Andy, I will say this the

1642
01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:42,160
Speaker 12: one the one pick that you made that did come

1643
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:45,280
Speaker 12: through for you was your guy Jimmy Hendrix, the darts

1644
01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:48,000
Speaker 12: player spelled with a KS, so I thought that was

1645
01:15:48,080 --> 01:15:51,080
Speaker 12: kind of kind of exciting there. But anyway, let's let's

1646
01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:55,479
Speaker 12: get into this week's We're starting with handball, the Champions League.

01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:05,120
Speaker 12: with you the loser.

1650
01:16:05,200 --> 01:16:07,679
Speaker 3: You're start with me. We're starting with the loser, okay,

1651
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:10,720
Speaker 3: Gog Hambell right, Yes, that's the.

1652
01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:14,400
Speaker 12: Guy plus one hundred. It's a team handball, team go Og.

1653
01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:20,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with the Gog, all right, Bucky, I

1654
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:22,360
Speaker 2: know he's going to the opposite way.

1655
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:27,120
Speaker 4: I'm always gonna go to opposite Andy, take the team.

1656
01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:28,680
Speaker 4: It's easy, yeah, you see.

1657
01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:30,760
Speaker 3: Okay, the next pick your ears. I don't want you to.

1658
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:32,200
Speaker 3: I don't want you to hear what I pick.

1659
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:33,920
Speaker 4: All right.

1660
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:36,439
Speaker 12: Next, we got the Swedish Hockey League. Well, actually Bucky's

1661
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:39,479
Speaker 12: going first on this one. It's the Vaccio Lakers at

1662
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:43,519
Speaker 12: plus one ten versus the Lulaya Hockey Club at minus

1663
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:46,800
Speaker 12: one thirty. Bucky, who you got this is e but you.

1664
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:48,760
Speaker 5: Just make the think you think about being on the lake,

1665
01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:51,200
Speaker 5: the lake freezing hockey like it just makes sense.

1666
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:52,000
Speaker 4: Some go to Lakers.

1667
01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:53,120
Speaker 12: I like that logic.

1668
01:16:53,240 --> 01:16:55,040
Speaker 2: You know, I wanted the Lakers because of the Lebrono

1669
01:16:55,080 --> 01:16:57,040
Speaker 2: though maybe he'd play for them. But I'm not gonna

1670
01:16:57,080 --> 01:16:58,920
Speaker 2: go with the Lakers because this way he'll think I'm

1671
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:00,800
Speaker 2: jumping on his back, and that's why I want to win.

1672
01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 3: No, I'd rather lose it be on my own than

1673
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,400
Speaker 3: win and cheat and take you a pick. So I'm

1674
01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:07,120
Speaker 3: taking the other pick, all right, taking the other pick.

1675
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,360
Speaker 12: You're going with, Lula. I think the funniest part about

1676
01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 12: Bucky's dominance here is that there's absolutely no collusion, no

1677
01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:16,120
Speaker 12: rigging going on. It's actually just fully Bucky just making

1678
01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:16,920
Speaker 12: the right picks.

1679
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:20,400
Speaker 2: And I no, it's no, it's me making the wrong picks,

1680
01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:23,040
Speaker 2: and that's how he wins. I make the wrong picks.

1681
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:23,920
Speaker 12: Anyway.

1682
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:26,559
Speaker 4: Next up, more games are lost in one.

1683
01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:30,559
Speaker 12: We got college rowing. This is over in England. Across

1684
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:33,200
Speaker 12: the pond. We got the boat race twenty twenty four.

1685
01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:37,960
Speaker 12: It's it's an annual thing, Oxford versus Cambridge. So Oxford's

1686
01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:41,680
Speaker 12: minus two hundred Cambridge is plus one fifty Andy, who

1687
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:42,040
Speaker 12: you got?

1688
01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:45,000
Speaker 3: I'm going with Oxford?

1689
01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:45,400
Speaker 6: You know why?

1690
01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,640
Speaker 2: Because I love the Knicks and Bill Bradley played for

1691
01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:50,080
Speaker 2: the Knicks. They went to Oxford, So I'm going with Oxford.

1692
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,320
Speaker 12: All right, Bucky, that means you're taking camer Cambridge.

1693
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:54,960
Speaker 4: Yeahliza perfectly before me.

1694
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:57,040
Speaker 3: I don't even listen to the line anymore. The heck

1695
01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:57,639
Speaker 3: with the line?

1696
01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:00,720
Speaker 12: All right? Next up, we got snooker done snooker in

1697
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:02,040
Speaker 12: a few weeks for coming back.

Speaker 2: has an interesting column every every single Friday. Now here's

1782
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,840
Speaker 2: the question. Can a free agent or a free agent

1783
01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:02,880
Speaker 2: signing make a major difference for one team more so,

1784
01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:05,479
Speaker 2: maybe than even a draft pick, because you wrote about

1785
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:07,800
Speaker 2: these free agents and when a free agent can make

1786
01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:09,080
Speaker 2: a big difference for one team.

1787
01:22:11,160 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, they absolutely can make a big difference for

1788
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,000
Speaker 5: one team, And a lot of times with a free agent,

1789
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:19,160
Speaker 5: it's about finding the right fit in terms of like

1790
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:21,120
Speaker 5: schematically and in the locker room.

1791
01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:21,599
Speaker 6: Do they.

1792
01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:26,519
Speaker 5: Enhance the chemistry that you already established while also plugging

1793
01:22:26,880 --> 01:22:29,000
Speaker 5: a major hole. A lot of times you like the

1794
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:31,160
Speaker 5: free agents better than the draft picks because you know

1795
01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:33,080
Speaker 5: that they can play at the NFL level. We've seen

1796
01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:36,120
Speaker 5: them play against NFL players and have success college guys.

1797
01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:38,240
Speaker 5: You're projecting that they're going to have success. That's why

1798
01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:39,960
Speaker 5: some teams lean into these free agents.

1799
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:42,599
Speaker 2: Okay, let's start with the AFC East as you did

1800
01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:45,639
Speaker 2: in your copy on Friday, and you started with the Jets.

1801
01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:47,320
Speaker 2: Jets with seven to ten last year and they need

1802
01:22:47,400 --> 01:22:49,080
Speaker 2: a big play kind of guy. But I think it

1803
01:22:49,160 --> 01:22:51,600
Speaker 2: all depends on Aaron Rodgers number one. What have you

1804
01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:53,800
Speaker 2: heard is Aaron Rodgers ready to come back, is going

1805
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:56,599
Speaker 2: to be successful? It will he be the Aaron Rodgers

1806
01:22:56,720 --> 01:22:57,840
Speaker 2: on this team next year?

1807
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:02,880
Speaker 5: I mean you never know with that, you know, coming

1808
01:23:02,920 --> 01:23:05,080
Speaker 5: off an achilles and you still don't know how he's

1809
01:23:05,120 --> 01:23:06,960
Speaker 5: gonna respond, but we're gonna assume that he's gonna be

1810
01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:08,519
Speaker 5: able to play at his best, and if he plays

1811
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:11,479
Speaker 5: at his best, it's about surrounding him with weapons. Mike

1812
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:14,400
Speaker 5: Williams being signed over by the New York just gives

1813
01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,920
Speaker 5: them a big time playmaker opposite Garrett Wilson. So when

1814
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:20,479
Speaker 5: they start double teaming Garrett Wilson, Mike Williams can go

1815
01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:23,639
Speaker 5: to work. Also, when you think about what Aaron Rodgers

1816
01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:27,839
Speaker 5: loves to throw, and he loves to target wide receivers

1817
01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:30,759
Speaker 5: down the field on those back shoulder throws, Mike Williams,

1818
01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:34,120
Speaker 5: big guy catch radius, expands the strikes on for Aaron Rodgers.

1819
01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:37,080
Speaker 4: Should be a fucking easy win for the Jets.

1820
01:23:37,439 --> 01:23:39,240
Speaker 2: You know, you're talking about Aaron Rodgers and his health

1821
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:42,240
Speaker 2: with the ACL, but Mike Williams missed eighteen games over

1822
01:23:42,320 --> 01:23:44,880
Speaker 2: the last two years, most of last season. Hey, he

1823
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:48,679
Speaker 2: too had an ACL injury, so you know he look

1824
01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:51,120
Speaker 2: if he's healthy and if Aaron Rodgers are healthy, they

1825
01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:53,840
Speaker 2: got two big guys that Aaron Rodgers could throw the

1826
01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:57,160
Speaker 2: football to. But again, the big question walker is health

1827
01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 2: and can he come back from that acl.

1828
01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:05,400
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, health is a big thing and you're chancing

1829
01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 5: it on that. But the injury happens on early in

1830
01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:11,439
Speaker 5: the year, you feel optimistic that he's going to return

1831
01:24:11,560 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 5: back to being the player that dominated on the outside

1832
01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:14,920
Speaker 5: for the charges.

1833
01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:19,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just heard something from my producer, the Big

1834
01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:21,680
Speaker 3: Eye Man. What was that again? Help me out here.

1835
01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:24,160
Speaker 12: I was just also pointing out that they did also

1836
01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:27,519
Speaker 12: sign Tyron Smith left tackle from the Cowboys, Right, but.

1837
01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:30,280
Speaker 2: That was not on Buckies' list. I'm going on Buckets' list.

1838
01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:32,320
Speaker 2: But that's okay, Okay, how come he was not?

1839
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:32,720
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1840
01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:35,679
Speaker 5: No, So, like now when we think about that, because

1841
01:24:35,720 --> 01:24:37,600
Speaker 5: that was the debate, right, is the Tyron Smith is

1842
01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:39,880
Speaker 5: a Mike Williams. The thing about Tyron Smith, Tyron Smith

1843
01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:42,680
Speaker 5: has been off injured as well. But I just think

1844
01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:44,240
Speaker 5: when you're the New York Jets, we can talk about

1845
01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 5: Tyron Smith and if he's available in those things. It's

1846
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:50,519
Speaker 5: really about Aaron Rodgers and what Aaron Rodgers does with

1847
01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:52,360
Speaker 5: all the weapons that he had on the outside. He

1848
01:24:52,600 --> 01:24:55,720
Speaker 5: forced the team into taking Alan Lazard and Rental Cobb. Well,

1849
01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:58,880
Speaker 5: now you go and you get a legitimate player who

1850
01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:00,760
Speaker 5: can play because Neither of the those guys gave the

1851
01:25:00,840 --> 01:25:04,360
Speaker 5: Jets what they needed. Garrett Wilson is the best playmaker

1852
01:25:04,439 --> 01:25:06,640
Speaker 5: that they have on the perimeter. You need someone that

1853
01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:08,720
Speaker 5: can take some of the burden off of him. You

1854
01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 5: can run the ball with Breeze Hall. So that's why

1855
01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:12,200
Speaker 5: Mike Williamson's choice.

1856
01:25:12,560 --> 01:25:13,559
Speaker 3: All right, thank you so much.

1857
01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:16,080
Speaker 2: I man appreciate that. We'll can stick to the buckets list.

1858
01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:18,400
Speaker 2: But if you have something to add, just jump right in. Now,

1859
01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:21,080
Speaker 2: let's talk about the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North.

1860
01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:23,920
Speaker 2: They got Lamar Jackson runs the football. Now they pick

1861
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:26,240
Speaker 2: up Derek Henry. How surprised were you that they pick

1862
01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:29,120
Speaker 2: up Derrick Henry as that free agent you were up

1863
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 2: here that he can make a major difference in that

1864
01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:33,640
Speaker 2: offense right now, because look, you've got two guys that

1865
01:25:33,680 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 2: could really rush the football. But does Derrick Henry have

1866
01:25:37,040 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 2: much left? I mean he's not old, but the point

1867
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:43,040
Speaker 2: is that he hasn't been that that productive at least

1868
01:25:43,080 --> 01:25:45,479
Speaker 2: in the years last year or so. Is it the

1869
01:25:45,520 --> 01:25:47,000
Speaker 2: team that he was on or does he still have

1870
01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:47,639
Speaker 2: something left?

1871
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 11: Oh?

1872
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:51,840
Speaker 5: I think he still can be productive. I think you

1873
01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:53,720
Speaker 5: have to understand how to use him. He's a down

1874
01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:55,400
Speaker 5: here runner who needs a bit of a run way

1875
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:57,800
Speaker 5: to get going. So you have to have in the

1876
01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:01,040
Speaker 5: offensive line that specialize in movie people off the ball.

1877
01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:04,320
Speaker 5: You have to have a coordinator who's disciplined enough to

1878
01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:07,680
Speaker 5: give him but eighteen or more carries so he can

1879
01:26:07,760 --> 01:26:10,679
Speaker 5: have a true impact on the game. But it also

1880
01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:13,360
Speaker 5: changes because he will play with the best quarterback that

1881
01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:16,200
Speaker 5: he's played with in his career. The attention that the

1882
01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:19,760
Speaker 5: duo will command from defenses is really going to be

1883
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,639
Speaker 5: scary because we've never seen a big time running back

1884
01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:25,439
Speaker 5: like a Derrick Henry team up with Lamark Jackson where

1885
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,639
Speaker 5: they still can do some of the quarterback read stuff

1886
01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:32,760
Speaker 5: that we see on Friday nights and Saturdays with some

1887
01:26:32,960 --> 01:26:35,599
Speaker 5: traditional stuff to take care of the playmakers on the outside.

1888
01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:38,760
Speaker 4: To me, it's just man, it makes his team really

1889
01:26:38,800 --> 01:26:41,320
Speaker 4: really good and really really scary right at the gate now.

1890
01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:43,280
Speaker 3: And they need to do that. That's probably the toughest

1891
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:44,880
Speaker 3: division in football that the Ravens are in.

1892
01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:49,360
Speaker 4: AFC North, I would agree there you.

1893
01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:52,640
Speaker 2: Go AFC South right now. A big surprise last year

1894
01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:54,560
Speaker 2: to ten and seven Houston Texas. They go for a

1895
01:26:54,600 --> 01:26:56,439
Speaker 2: defensive end. Who did they take and.

1896
01:26:56,560 --> 01:27:03,879
Speaker 5: Why when you just think about, like what the Texans

1897
01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:05,800
Speaker 5: want to do, they took Daniel Hunter. And part of

1898
01:27:05,840 --> 01:27:08,519
Speaker 5: the reason why you want Daniel Hunter is another pass rusher.

1899
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:11,760
Speaker 4: As you bring c J. Stroud along, and c J.

1900
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,680
Speaker 5: Stroud is putting points upon the board, forcing opponents to

1901
01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:15,360
Speaker 5: chase points.

1902
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:16,760
Speaker 4: Well as the.

1903
01:27:18,280 --> 01:27:21,280
Speaker 5: Texans defense, you want to make sure that they have

1904
01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:24,000
Speaker 5: enough weapons to get after it. Those quarterbacks are gonna

1905
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:27,960
Speaker 5: be dropping back Daniel Hunter will Anderson to established pass rushers,

1906
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:29,519
Speaker 5: guys that have played at the elite levels.

1907
01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:30,680
Speaker 4: That's why you bring him in.

1908
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:33,120
Speaker 5: Daniel Hunter is a monster off the age eighty seven

1909
01:27:33,120 --> 01:27:36,280
Speaker 5: and a half Krisacks eleven force fumbles. He's a problem

1910
01:27:36,600 --> 01:27:39,040
Speaker 5: to have to turn and hold up in pass protection.

1911
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:41,200
Speaker 5: That's gonna make life easy for will Anderson.

1912
01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,839
Speaker 2: So the Vikings lose Hunter, the Vikings lose Kirk Cousins.

1913
01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,040
Speaker 2: The Vikings right now in a tremendous rebuilding mode, I

1914
01:27:48,040 --> 01:27:50,240
Speaker 2: would think, I mean they're in trouble. I mean, I

1915
01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:51,760
Speaker 2: don't know who the quarterback is going to be, but

1916
01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:54,320
Speaker 2: they got to get themselves a steady quarterback.

1917
01:27:54,320 --> 01:27:55,559
Speaker 3: I would think right.

1918
01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:00,519
Speaker 5: At some point they'll get one, or maybe to Sam

1919
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:05,040
Speaker 5: Donald you know, reclamation project that Kevin O'Connell is able

1920
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:08,800
Speaker 5: to kind of orchestrate and fix their defense would be good.

1921
01:28:08,840 --> 01:28:11,880
Speaker 5: But no, it'd be a different type team that we're

1922
01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:13,519
Speaker 5: seeing from Defnisula Vikings.

1923
01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:16,360
Speaker 2: All right, let's move to the AFC West right now,

1924
01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:19,400
Speaker 2: and I'm looking at the Las Vegas Raiders, slowly but

1925
01:28:19,560 --> 01:28:22,640
Speaker 2: surely under the radar. They finished second last year eight

1926
01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:26,120
Speaker 2: and nine. But their coach Antonio Pears, I mean he

1927
01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 2: pushed into a second place finish. They won their last

1928
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:32,479
Speaker 2: matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs a year ago and

1929
01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:36,120
Speaker 2: that game was an ourhead stadium. They sacked Patrick Mahomes

1930
01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:38,720
Speaker 2: four times. I think the Las Vegas Raiders are a

1931
01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:41,080
Speaker 2: team to kind of keep your eye on. Who do

1932
01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 2: they go after in free agency?

1933
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:43,120
Speaker 3: And why.

1934
01:28:44,880 --> 01:28:48,479
Speaker 5: Christian Wilkins bring Christian Wilkins over his everything, because what

1935
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 5: he does is he puts in inside pass rusher.

1936
01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:57,760
Speaker 4: Beside Max Crosby. And as you're thinking about the.

1937
01:28:57,800 --> 01:28:59,920
Speaker 5: Way that you want to win, the way that you

1938
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:01,519
Speaker 5: you have to win in today's game is you have

1939
01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:03,800
Speaker 5: to be able to create pressure not only inside but

1940
01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:08,000
Speaker 5: outside and by pushing someone up the gut, now you

1941
01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:11,200
Speaker 5: force quarterbacks off the spot and you basically run them

1942
01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:13,960
Speaker 5: into the awaiting hands of Max Crosby.

1943
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:16,720
Speaker 4: I love this move. This might be my favorite move

1944
01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:17,360
Speaker 4: of free agency.

1945
01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:19,479
Speaker 3: And you like the Raiders as well. I mean, they're

1946
01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:21,320
Speaker 3: going to be competitive next year, no doubt about that.

1947
01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:22,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so.

1948
01:29:23,160 --> 01:29:24,880
Speaker 5: But I also think it may be a little more

1949
01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:28,400
Speaker 5: difficult for ap the second time around, because they know him.

1950
01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 5: He won't catch their teams by surprise, and he will

1951
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:35,600
Speaker 5: have to do a really good job of kind of

1952
01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:38,960
Speaker 5: continuing to advance this team in terms of expanding upon

1953
01:29:39,080 --> 01:29:41,479
Speaker 5: the stuff that he created a little bit last year,

1954
01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:44,000
Speaker 5: Like he has to continue to make sure that they

1955
01:29:44,200 --> 01:29:45,880
Speaker 5: just get better and better and better each week.

1956
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and just to reset for a second, these are

1957
01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:50,680
Speaker 2: players that were picked up by these various teams and

1958
01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:53,400
Speaker 2: free agency that could very well make a difference if

1959
01:29:53,439 --> 01:29:55,200
Speaker 2: you're a fan of these ball clubs, to make a

1960
01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:58,240
Speaker 2: difference that you know, kind of leapfrog these teams to

1961
01:29:58,800 --> 01:29:59,439
Speaker 2: another level.

1962
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,479
Speaker 4: That's correct, right, that is absolutely correct. They can you

1963
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:06,559
Speaker 4: help them go from good to great. Next love here

1964
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:07,160
Speaker 4: we go, all.

1965
01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,000
Speaker 2: Right, So let's go to the NFC East And you

1966
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:11,439
Speaker 2: got Saquon Barkley And I was surprised with that. I

1967
01:30:11,640 --> 01:30:13,479
Speaker 2: was surprised that the Eagles went there. Why you know,

1968
01:30:13,640 --> 01:30:16,000
Speaker 2: did they had a top ten offense last year in

1969
01:30:16,160 --> 01:30:18,080
Speaker 2: both yards and at both points.

1970
01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:20,320
Speaker 3: Why do they go after Saquon Barkley.

1971
01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:24,800
Speaker 5: Look, they look over at their arrivals, and this is

1972
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:27,400
Speaker 5: something that ever runs counter to how Howie Roseman has

1973
01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:30,080
Speaker 5: thought for most of his career. Didn't believe him seeking

1974
01:30:30,160 --> 01:30:32,200
Speaker 5: a lot of money in the running backs or linebackers.

1975
01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:34,160
Speaker 5: But when you look at your arrival, a team that

1976
01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:36,680
Speaker 5: is really the best team in the NFC, the Sam

1977
01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:39,160
Speaker 5: Francisco forty nine ers, what did they do? They went

1978
01:30:39,200 --> 01:30:42,280
Speaker 5: and got Christian McCaffrey. And once they got Christian McCaffrey,

1979
01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:46,439
Speaker 5: life became easy for everybody else on that offense. Thinking

1980
01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:49,640
Speaker 5: about how it brock for Prady's flourishing, how deebo and

1981
01:30:49,680 --> 01:30:52,160
Speaker 5: George Kittle Brandon, Now you're at flourish because everyone has

1982
01:30:52,200 --> 01:30:54,839
Speaker 5: to put their eyes in the backfield and pay attention

1983
01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:59,720
Speaker 5: to Saquon. Now that is that will open up the

1984
01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:04,400
Speaker 5: field for a j Brown and Devonte Smith and Jeden

1985
01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 5: Hurst will find easier throws and those things off play action,

1986
01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:12,160
Speaker 5: just like Christian McCaffrey impacted the Niners ixpects Saquon Barkley.

1987
01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:14,519
Speaker 4: They have the similar type impact on the Eagles.

1988
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:17,240
Speaker 2: And I will say this, I really like the way

1989
01:31:17,360 --> 01:31:20,240
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley left the Giants. Not that I was happy

1990
01:31:20,479 --> 01:31:22,240
Speaker 2: to see him leave the Giants. I like the Giants.

1991
01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:24,439
Speaker 2: I grew up with them, but you know, he thanked them.

1992
01:31:24,760 --> 01:31:25,599
Speaker 2: He was a gentleman.

1993
01:31:25,720 --> 01:31:27,360
Speaker 3: I just think and I never met the guy. Have

1994
01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:28,719
Speaker 3: you ever met Saquon Barkley.

1995
01:31:29,960 --> 01:31:30,960
Speaker 4: Oh? Yeah, no him? Really will?

1996
01:31:31,560 --> 01:31:34,519
Speaker 2: I would think that this guy is class top to bottom.

1997
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:37,479
Speaker 2: Maybe I mistake. I just think the way he carries himself.

1998
01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:40,880
Speaker 2: I really I admire Saquon Barkley. And when you see

1999
01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:42,479
Speaker 2: him again, if you know, tell him, I said, a

2000
01:31:42,560 --> 01:31:43,560
Speaker 2: low please.

2001
01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:46,840
Speaker 5: Okay tell him, Andy Ferrman, I'll tell him. Andy Ferman said,

2002
01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:48,000
Speaker 5: Heloe definitely no.

2003
01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:49,680
Speaker 3: But is he that kind of a guy. I am?

2004
01:31:49,720 --> 01:31:52,439
Speaker 3: I spot on with this, do you yeah?

2005
01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:52,880
Speaker 4: Look?

2006
01:31:53,000 --> 01:31:55,240
Speaker 5: Man, he's Look he's a nice guy. He's very genuine,

2007
01:31:55,320 --> 01:31:56,120
Speaker 5: he's very authentic.

2008
01:31:57,000 --> 01:31:57,160
Speaker 2: You know.

2009
01:31:57,520 --> 01:32:02,280
Speaker 5: He and T Barber has some some some tense words

2010
01:32:02,320 --> 01:32:04,679
Speaker 5: going terse words going back back and forth.

2011
01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,519
Speaker 4: But Saquan did everything he could for the Giants. He

2012
01:32:07,600 --> 01:32:09,040
Speaker 4: gave it all. He wanted to be the leader of

2013
01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:11,559
Speaker 4: the team. He was very productive, you know, he bounced

2014
01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:13,920
Speaker 4: back from injury and came back and produced the following me.

2015
01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:16,679
Speaker 4: He deserves credit for all of those things.

2016
01:32:17,120 --> 01:32:21,200
Speaker 5: You know, It's just unfortunate that they didn't see him

2017
01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:23,360
Speaker 5: as the guy that was the really the engine of

2018
01:32:23,479 --> 01:32:24,639
Speaker 5: the offense when.

2019
01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:25,960
Speaker 1: But he was.

2020
01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:27,720
Speaker 3: He was like sixty percent of the office. They gave

2021
01:32:27,760 --> 01:32:30,400
Speaker 3: all the offensive money to Daniel Jones. That was the problem.

2022
01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:32,880
Speaker 4: That that absolutely was the problem.

2023
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:34,920
Speaker 5: And not only upset the applecard there, but like the

2024
01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:38,559
Speaker 5: locker room looks around and pays attention to that exactly right.

2025
01:32:38,640 --> 01:32:40,639
Speaker 2: Let's go to the NFC North right now, and I'm

2026
01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,000
Speaker 2: looking at the Green Bay Packers and look the Packers

2027
01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:43,280
Speaker 2: right now.

2028
01:32:43,320 --> 01:32:44,679
Speaker 3: I think they surprised a lot of people.

2029
01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:47,720
Speaker 2: They were in contention. Why Jordan Love broke out his

2030
01:32:47,840 --> 01:32:50,519
Speaker 2: first season as a starter. They got a wild card spot,

2031
01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:53,439
Speaker 2: they won a playoff game, they got a new defensive coredinits.

2032
01:32:53,439 --> 01:32:55,000
Speaker 3: So what do they do? They go for a defensive

2033
01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:57,280
Speaker 3: player and free agency, who they get and why?

2034
01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:03,360
Speaker 5: You know, So when I sit here and I think about,

2035
01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:05,880
Speaker 5: like how these teams are going in the best way

2036
01:33:05,960 --> 01:33:08,040
Speaker 5: to do it, Like there's certain things that you have

2037
01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:10,040
Speaker 5: to have to be able to win at a high level.

2038
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:14,479
Speaker 5: And when I when I look at the Green Bay Packers,

2039
01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:16,519
Speaker 5: it's not only what they did with Josh Jacobs, but

2040
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:20,920
Speaker 5: Xavier McKinnie coming over giving them a dynamic playmaker in

2041
01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:23,479
Speaker 5: the back end. What Zavier McKinnie does is he's a

2042
01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:27,519
Speaker 5: ball hawk. Jeff Hathley, new defensive coordinator, wants to do

2043
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:30,120
Speaker 5: more zone stuff, adds on the quarterback so you can

2044
01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:30,920
Speaker 5: make more plays.

2045
01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:33,800
Speaker 4: McKinnie is perfect for that. I think this is a

2046
01:33:33,920 --> 01:33:34,800
Speaker 4: great move for them.

2047
01:33:35,200 --> 01:33:38,320
Speaker 5: Upgrades to safety position, but gives them a defensive playmaker

2048
01:33:38,479 --> 01:33:40,280
Speaker 5: who specializes in taking the ball away.

2049
01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:40,880
Speaker 4: You know.

2050
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:43,800
Speaker 2: And there's no problem with these teams getting a guy

2051
01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:45,880
Speaker 2: who's been a veteran. I mean, I could see a

2052
01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:47,840
Speaker 2: guy who's played two three years, but this guy's played

2053
01:33:47,920 --> 01:33:50,800
Speaker 2: five years and at that position, that's a lot of

2054
01:33:50,840 --> 01:33:53,400
Speaker 2: wear and tear. There's no problem with that five years

2055
01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:55,840
Speaker 2: under his belt in the National Football League.

2056
01:33:57,120 --> 01:33:58,960
Speaker 5: No, I think you feel you feel okay about it.

2057
01:34:00,040 --> 01:34:02,160
Speaker 5: Part of the thing, that's how you can acquire the experience.

2058
01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:05,680
Speaker 5: The experience comes from playing games, playing meaningful games, being

2059
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:07,200
Speaker 5: able to be around and be dependable.

2060
01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:09,120
Speaker 4: He's been able to do that. That's why I'm going

2061
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:09,960
Speaker 4: to go all in on them.

2062
01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:13,400
Speaker 2: There you go, Okay, NFC South talk about the Atlanta

2063
01:34:13,439 --> 01:34:15,640
Speaker 2: Falcons right now. They finished the third of seven to

2064
01:34:15,760 --> 01:34:16,280
Speaker 2: ten record.

2065
01:34:16,560 --> 01:34:17,040
Speaker 4: What do they do.

2066
01:34:17,160 --> 01:34:20,479
Speaker 2: They go out and get a quarterback, Kirk Cousins. Look,

2067
01:34:20,800 --> 01:34:23,920
Speaker 2: they got a great running back and John Rott Robinson,

2068
01:34:24,880 --> 01:34:28,559
Speaker 2: four time pro bowler point guard to direct the Falcons

2069
01:34:28,600 --> 01:34:32,479
Speaker 2: fast break offense. As you right, Kirk Cousins coming off

2070
01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:33,040
Speaker 2: an injury.

2071
01:34:33,520 --> 01:34:34,120
Speaker 7: Is he the guy?

2072
01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:37,880
Speaker 3: Is he the guy that would lead them to the

2073
01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:39,240
Speaker 3: so called promised land.

2074
01:34:40,360 --> 01:34:41,880
Speaker 5: You know, it's funny because a couple of years ago

2075
01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:44,120
Speaker 5: they moved on from Matt Ryan only to bring a

2076
01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:48,400
Speaker 5: Matt Ryan like player back and bringing Kirk Cousins back.

2077
01:34:48,439 --> 01:34:50,760
Speaker 5: What they do is they get a very mature, experience

2078
01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:53,840
Speaker 5: managerial type to get the ball out to the weapons

2079
01:34:53,840 --> 01:34:56,000
Speaker 5: and allow the weapons to go to work. Drake London,

2080
01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:58,840
Speaker 5: Kyle Pitts, b John Robinson in the backfield tyler this

2081
01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:01,360
Speaker 5: year in the backfield, Kirk Cousins.

2082
01:35:01,080 --> 01:35:02,360
Speaker 4: Doesn't have to do a lot.

2083
01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:04,880
Speaker 5: He just has to get the ball to the open receiver,

2084
01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:06,880
Speaker 5: let it go, and then hand the ball off and

2085
01:35:06,920 --> 01:35:11,000
Speaker 5: then keep the team calm and composed because he's won

2086
01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,080
Speaker 5: a lot of games in this time. No, he hasn't

2087
01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:15,160
Speaker 5: come away with the big one, but he's done a

2088
01:35:15,240 --> 01:35:18,200
Speaker 5: really good job of studying franchises. It's a great move

2089
01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:20,000
Speaker 5: for the Atlanta Falcons at this time, and I would

2090
01:35:20,040 --> 01:35:22,320
Speaker 5: double down if id the Falcons, I would get a

2091
01:35:22,439 --> 01:35:25,120
Speaker 5: younger quarterback, maybe in the third round, to see if

2092
01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:29,479
Speaker 5: we can put someone to back up Kirk Cousins, to

2093
01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:33,080
Speaker 5: push him while he's getting ready for his opportunity. I

2094
01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:35,120
Speaker 5: think that would be the best course of action for

2095
01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:36,760
Speaker 5: the Atlanta Falcons if I'm going forward and.

2096
01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:38,080
Speaker 3: He's coming off an injury as well.

2097
01:35:38,080 --> 01:35:40,640
Speaker 2: Okay, last, but not least, NFC West, Let's go to

2098
01:35:40,720 --> 01:35:43,559
Speaker 2: the San Francisco forty nine ers. Obviously, if they blew

2099
01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:46,640
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl again, why you say because of a

2100
01:35:46,800 --> 01:35:48,960
Speaker 2: pass rush? Now they got someone to call him at

2101
01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:52,120
Speaker 2: Nick Boson again. A new defensive coordinator in San Francisco,

2102
01:35:52,240 --> 01:35:55,240
Speaker 2: Nick Sorenson. Who do they get Will he make the difference?

2103
01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:56,400
Speaker 4: Yeah?

2104
01:35:56,520 --> 01:35:59,080
Speaker 5: Nick Sorris, the new defense coordinator, wants to continue to

2105
01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:02,599
Speaker 5: do what Roberts Demiko Rines did, which was a version

2106
01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:06,800
Speaker 5: of that Seattle Seahawks defense that was so incredible during

2107
01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 5: the LB lesion of boom Era. So they go and

2108
01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:12,960
Speaker 5: get a pass rusher, Leonard Floyd. He comes over, but

2109
01:36:13,160 --> 01:36:15,439
Speaker 5: he gives them is the opportunity to be able to

2110
01:36:15,680 --> 01:36:18,559
Speaker 5: just Hey, we're gonna rush four, we're gonna drop seven,

2111
01:36:18,760 --> 01:36:22,160
Speaker 5: we can drop sixty seven in the coverage and just

2112
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:24,599
Speaker 5: keep all the stuff in front of the defense.

2113
01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:26,439
Speaker 4: We're gonna make people drive the length of the field.

2114
01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:29,120
Speaker 5: We're gonna get our interceptions and take aways off tips

2115
01:36:29,160 --> 01:36:31,400
Speaker 5: and overthrow and we'll live with that where Floyd can

2116
01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:31,680
Speaker 5: do that.

2117
01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:34,720
Speaker 4: Floyd is a double digit sack ard. See he plays opposite.

2118
01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:36,360
Speaker 5: Nick Bolsa, so he will get all of the one

2119
01:36:36,439 --> 01:36:39,320
Speaker 5: on once. He's more than capable of winning his one

2120
01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:39,760
Speaker 5: on once.

2121
01:36:40,240 --> 01:36:41,160
Speaker 4: I love Chase Young.

2122
01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:43,320
Speaker 5: I love Chase Young since he was in high school Washington,

2123
01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:47,480
Speaker 5: But Leonnd Floyd is an upgrade. He's a veteran, established

2124
01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:51,240
Speaker 5: playmaker who has proven production. This makes the Niners a

2125
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:53,639
Speaker 5: lot better on their line. He also has the energy

2126
01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:55,439
Speaker 5: and the motor to play for this team.

2127
01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:59,040
Speaker 2: Well, Nick Boleser Leonard Flood right now, that's pretty good

2128
01:36:59,080 --> 01:37:00,000
Speaker 2: tandem and one too.

2129
01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:03,040
Speaker 4: Really is yeah, really really good tandem.

2130
01:37:03,400 --> 01:37:03,760
Speaker 3: There you go.

2131
01:37:03,880 --> 01:37:06,080
Speaker 2: So these are the names that Bucky Brooks put on

2132
01:37:06,240 --> 01:37:09,040
Speaker 2: NFL dot Com, the free agents that really would lift

2133
01:37:09,160 --> 01:37:12,360
Speaker 2: these teams mentioned to perhaps the next level. So we

2134
01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:15,400
Speaker 2: thank you, Buck, great job as always. Okay, get Bucky

2140
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:28,640
Speaker 2: We've got the playing game at the end of this

2141
01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:31,559
Speaker 2: hour thanks to the eyeman. And of course coming up next,

2142
01:37:31,960 --> 01:37:34,280
Speaker 2: is it music or is it football?

2143
01:37:34,840 --> 01:37:35,400
Speaker 3: That's next.

2144
01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:38,800
Speaker 2: We have the answer for you coming right up, and

2145
01:37:38,960 --> 01:37:42,479
Speaker 2: he is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman. We are Fox

2146
01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:45,160
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday and Fox Sports Ready, and we're live from

2147
01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:48,000
Speaker 2: the Tirack dot Com studios. And the answer, obviously was

2148
01:37:48,040 --> 01:37:50,080
Speaker 2: the question is it music or as a football? And

2149
01:37:50,160 --> 01:37:52,439
Speaker 2: before we get to that, Buck, we have a message

2150
01:37:52,479 --> 01:37:56,479
Speaker 2: from one Brian Miller. Brian Miller says he totally agrees

2151
01:37:56,520 --> 01:37:59,479
Speaker 2: the NCAA Women's Tournament should be held on their own

2152
01:37:59,560 --> 01:38:03,760
Speaker 2: three week period, separate from the NCAA men It distracts

2153
01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:06,639
Speaker 2: from each other. The fan interest is also different, he says,

2154
01:38:06,720 --> 01:38:09,519
Speaker 2: I remember in the past had a women's game preceding

2155
01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:12,519
Speaker 2: that when into overtime and the men's fans went ballisted

2156
01:38:12,800 --> 01:38:14,439
Speaker 2: that their game coverage was delayed.

2157
01:38:14,760 --> 01:38:15,360
Speaker 3: How do you like that?

2158
01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:18,559
Speaker 2: So there's one there, one plus for the women right there,

2159
01:38:18,600 --> 01:38:21,080
Speaker 2: and I sort of agree it's a separate tournament. They

2160
01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:24,160
Speaker 2: shouldn't be coincide. And we talked about maybe having it

2161
01:38:24,240 --> 01:38:26,760
Speaker 2: on the same night, the same championship nine in the

2162
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,040
Speaker 2: same court. I don't think that women should be the

2163
01:38:29,160 --> 01:38:32,720
Speaker 2: prelim or the undercard for the men's championship game. I

2164
01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:34,720
Speaker 2: don't think it's right. So we'll see what happens on that.

2165
01:38:35,040 --> 01:38:37,519
Speaker 2: But let's get back to this football situation. I said,

2166
01:38:37,640 --> 01:38:40,080
Speaker 2: is it music or football? The question is is it

2167
01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:43,719
Speaker 2: hip hop? What exactly is a hip hop tackling technique?

2168
01:38:43,800 --> 01:38:45,479
Speaker 3: I had to look this up. I didn't know what

2169
01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:45,840
Speaker 3: it was.

2170
01:38:46,080 --> 01:38:48,040
Speaker 2: I never heard of the hip hop tackle. I'm sure

2171
01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:51,240
Speaker 2: you did, and it says over here the hip hop tackle.

2172
01:38:51,720 --> 01:38:55,360
Speaker 2: The defensive player approaches from behind or on the side,

2173
01:38:55,680 --> 01:38:58,880
Speaker 2: wraps his arms around the offensive player, and becomes dead

2174
01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:02,320
Speaker 2: weight while dropping to the ground. Often the defensive player's

2175
01:39:02,360 --> 01:39:05,800
Speaker 2: body lands on the offensive player's legs. Okay, to me,

2176
01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:08,479
Speaker 2: it doesn't sound like too much of a safe situation.

2177
01:39:08,880 --> 01:39:12,400
Speaker 2: And I know during a game this past year, Logan Wilson,

2178
01:39:12,479 --> 01:39:15,400
Speaker 2: the linebacker on the Bengals, he got he did it

2179
01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:17,960
Speaker 2: against the Baltimore Ravens, and I think some of the

2180
01:39:18,000 --> 01:39:21,439
Speaker 2: players on the Ravens, including Lamar Jackson, was hurt during

2181
01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:24,000
Speaker 2: that game. And the media tried to talk to Logan

2182
01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:27,840
Speaker 2: on that, and the media obviously were brushed aside by

2183
01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:31,080
Speaker 2: the pr people of the Cincinnati Bengals. So let's talk

2184
01:39:31,120 --> 01:39:32,240
Speaker 2: about that. You've heard of it.

2185
01:39:32,560 --> 01:39:34,800
Speaker 3: Tell me all about this hip hop tackle and what

2186
01:39:34,920 --> 01:39:35,959
Speaker 3: the NFL wants.

2187
01:39:35,760 --> 01:39:38,720
Speaker 5: To do with it. So, the hip drop tackle is

2188
01:39:38,760 --> 01:39:42,200
Speaker 5: a tackle on which you're either a decide or behind.

2189
01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:44,800
Speaker 5: And what you do is you just grab any part

2190
01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:47,920
Speaker 5: of the player, and as you grab your grab any

2191
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:50,960
Speaker 5: part of the player, you just allow your body to

2192
01:39:51,040 --> 01:39:53,840
Speaker 5: go limp because you're trying to let them go down.

2193
01:39:53,920 --> 01:39:56,240
Speaker 5: You're trying to pour them down with you, and it's

2194
01:39:56,360 --> 01:40:01,080
Speaker 5: using gravity, gravity and everything to stop the the opponent's force.

2195
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:03,920
Speaker 5: The issue that you have is when you grab someone

2196
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:07,400
Speaker 5: behind and you fall all the way back. You put

2197
01:40:07,439 --> 01:40:12,000
Speaker 5: them in my position, it's hard to run forward while

2198
01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:14,640
Speaker 5: being pulled backwards, and so ultimately your knees fold up

2199
01:40:14,680 --> 01:40:17,360
Speaker 5: under you and those things and the injuries that occur

2200
01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:19,120
Speaker 5: are lower leg injuries.

2201
01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:19,720
Speaker 4: Primarily.

2202
01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:22,960
Speaker 5: It's the same injury that caused to to miss most

2203
01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:24,880
Speaker 5: of the regular season, but show up in the Super Bowl.

2204
01:40:25,160 --> 01:40:28,880
Speaker 5: We've seen it happen multiple times. But I would say,

2205
01:40:28,960 --> 01:40:31,799
Speaker 5: is the defensive back man, you don't have many choices.

2206
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:35,360
Speaker 5: Derrick Henry weighs significantly more than me. I can't say, hey,

2207
01:40:35,400 --> 01:40:38,280
Speaker 5: I'm gonna hit Derreck Henry right in this way. I

2208
01:40:38,360 --> 01:40:39,800
Speaker 5: have to be able to kind of find a way

2209
01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,040
Speaker 5: to take him down, take him low. And because he's

2210
01:40:42,080 --> 01:40:44,240
Speaker 5: so strong and so physical, I got to get up

2211
01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:45,880
Speaker 5: under this stif farm. I got to get to the legs,

2212
01:40:45,960 --> 01:40:47,760
Speaker 5: got to pull the legs together. Then I basically have

2213
01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:50,200
Speaker 5: to cattle rope them. Got a less a home to

2214
01:40:50,280 --> 01:40:51,720
Speaker 5: be able to get it down. But that is the

2215
01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:52,559
Speaker 5: hip drop tackle.

2216
01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:54,479
Speaker 2: Okay, So why don't we bring this up at those

2217
01:40:54,520 --> 01:40:57,640
Speaker 2: the NFL's Competition Committee the other day off of the

2218
01:40:57,800 --> 01:41:00,839
Speaker 2: rule that would prohibit to hip hop time backing technique

2219
01:41:01,000 --> 01:41:03,800
Speaker 2: and the NFLPA issued a statement just after that saying

2220
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:06,920
Speaker 2: they oppose the proposal. Now, if in fact there's injury

2221
01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:10,519
Speaker 2: of involved with this, you would think the NFLPA would say, yeah,

2222
01:41:10,640 --> 01:41:13,120
Speaker 2: we agree, we want to prohibit this. But you bring

2223
01:41:13,240 --> 01:41:15,080
Speaker 2: up a great point. Sometimes you can't help it. I

2224
01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:17,680
Speaker 2: don't think it's done intentionally, but it happens. Look, I

2225
01:41:17,720 --> 01:41:21,759
Speaker 2: would think that if they prohibited this rule, this committee

2226
01:41:21,960 --> 01:41:25,960
Speaker 2: would prohibit it. I think perhaps concussions might go down.

2227
01:41:26,040 --> 01:41:30,600
Speaker 2: This could create concussions. So the NFLPA opposing it. I

2228
01:41:30,760 --> 01:41:33,280
Speaker 2: questioned that a little bit. Why would the NFLPA really

2229
01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:34,680
Speaker 2: and truly oppose it?

2230
01:41:36,160 --> 01:41:38,240
Speaker 4: Because you put the defensive player at risk.

2231
01:41:38,320 --> 01:41:40,960
Speaker 5: Now, see all the adjustments that people are having to

2232
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:43,600
Speaker 5: make when it comes to health and safety all on.

2233
01:41:43,640 --> 01:41:46,240
Speaker 4: The defensive players. And that's not fair to the players

2234
01:41:46,520 --> 01:41:48,519
Speaker 4: because you have defensive players that are having to do

2235
01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:50,680
Speaker 4: all the thinking. Can't hit them high, I can't hit

2236
01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:53,000
Speaker 4: them low. Gotta be careful, how do I tackle? Gotta

2237
01:41:53,040 --> 01:41:55,599
Speaker 4: wrap here? You gotta do this, No, that's too violent.

2238
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:58,960
Speaker 5: There's a lot of stuff to happen and split second

2239
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:00,479
Speaker 5: moments and what's going to happen.

2240
01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:02,960
Speaker 4: Unfortunately, one day someone's.

2241
01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:05,200
Speaker 5: Gonna be thinking so much about what to do, they

2242
01:42:05,240 --> 01:42:08,160
Speaker 5: don't do anything, and they get hurt, and what you're

2243
01:42:08,200 --> 01:42:09,599
Speaker 5: trying to do is free their mind.

2244
01:42:09,680 --> 01:42:11,960
Speaker 4: And it's just so many different rules.

2245
01:42:12,040 --> 01:42:15,879
Speaker 5: Are all aimed at the players, and primarily the defensive

2246
01:42:15,880 --> 01:42:19,400
Speaker 5: players the opposit to do whatever they want. They also

2247
01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:22,040
Speaker 5: can use those things. They can lower their head, they

2248
01:42:22,080 --> 01:42:23,920
Speaker 5: can use the stiff farm, they can come at you.

2249
01:42:24,040 --> 01:42:27,640
Speaker 5: So we have basically neutralize all of the weapons for

2250
01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:31,600
Speaker 5: the defense, but given the offense a full compliment of

2251
01:42:31,680 --> 01:42:33,520
Speaker 5: things that they can do to avoid.

2252
01:42:34,680 --> 01:42:35,439
Speaker 4: Getting in trouble.

2253
01:42:36,439 --> 01:42:36,600
Speaker 11: You know.

2254
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:41,280
Speaker 2: But again, the reason for the proposed change to reduce concussions,

2255
01:42:41,720 --> 01:42:44,040
Speaker 2: even on kick gloss. I mean, that's what they want

2256
01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:46,400
Speaker 2: to do, and certainly I guess the pressure obviously, say

2257
01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:50,240
Speaker 2: is to be on the defensive player. But again, without

2258
01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:55,120
Speaker 2: this rule, without the excuse me, hip hop may reduce concussions.

2259
01:42:55,439 --> 01:42:57,200
Speaker 2: What do you think where's this going to go? Will

2260
01:42:57,240 --> 01:42:59,800
Speaker 2: they in fact revamp it, will they get rid of it,

2261
01:42:59,920 --> 01:43:01,360
Speaker 2: or will it remain in the game.

2262
01:43:03,479 --> 01:43:05,920
Speaker 4: I mean, I think they'll eventually get rid of it.

2263
01:43:06,040 --> 01:43:07,120
Speaker 4: I think they'll get rid of it.

2264
01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:10,439
Speaker 5: It will be allowed protests from the players, they'll complain

2265
01:43:10,520 --> 01:43:12,920
Speaker 5: about it. But then I'm telling you, man, what you're

2266
01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:14,599
Speaker 5: gonna see is you gonna see what no one wants

2267
01:43:14,640 --> 01:43:19,000
Speaker 5: to see. You're going to see more defenders torpedoing lower

2268
01:43:19,120 --> 01:43:21,559
Speaker 5: legs like you're gonna see more blown out knees because

2269
01:43:21,600 --> 01:43:23,080
Speaker 5: guys will be like, the only way that I know

2270
01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:25,920
Speaker 5: I can hit without getting in trouble, I'm just gonna

2271
01:43:25,960 --> 01:43:28,240
Speaker 5: hit people right at the knees or below, and it's

2272
01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:30,920
Speaker 5: gonna make everyone mad because I'm like, that's a dirty play.

2273
01:43:31,280 --> 01:43:33,679
Speaker 5: But you haven't really given defenders a lot of choice.

2274
01:43:34,120 --> 01:43:36,280
Speaker 5: I mean, the strikes on it so small up high

2275
01:43:36,320 --> 01:43:39,320
Speaker 5: that you just better serve to just take everybody out

2276
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:41,680
Speaker 5: below the waist. And that didn't used to be the

2277
01:43:41,720 --> 01:43:45,000
Speaker 5: way that it was. There used to be gentlemen's agreements

2278
01:43:45,400 --> 01:43:48,559
Speaker 5: between defenders and offensive players, like hey man, I'm gonna

2279
01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:50,559
Speaker 5: hit you, but I'm gonna try not to hit you low.

2280
01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:52,840
Speaker 5: I understand that your legs are kind of like the

2281
01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:56,200
Speaker 5: driving force to your success in getting paid.

2282
01:43:56,520 --> 01:43:57,759
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna take that away.

2283
01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:00,680
Speaker 13: And what the League did is they stepped in and

2284
01:44:00,800 --> 01:44:04,120
Speaker 13: they basically have forced all these guys to attack the

2285
01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:07,679
Speaker 13: lower levels, the lower legs, because that's the only place

2286
01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:08,839
Speaker 13: that's available.

2287
01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:11,519
Speaker 2: So what I'm hearing now is that even though the

2288
01:44:11,680 --> 01:44:15,599
Speaker 2: hip hop tackle may create more concussions, you know, if

2289
01:44:15,640 --> 01:44:19,240
Speaker 2: you eliminate that, you're going to have more knee injuries

2290
01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:22,800
Speaker 2: and lower leg injuries if they get rid of it.

2291
01:44:23,200 --> 01:44:27,000
Speaker 2: Because the tackling technique moved the spearing more more spearing.

2292
01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:30,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, not necessarily spearing, but you see more

2293
01:44:30,720 --> 01:44:34,519
Speaker 4: people like what we call shoulder block tackle or tackle

2294
01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:36,360
Speaker 4: low and those things.

2295
01:44:36,439 --> 01:44:38,560
Speaker 5: And before you would hit people up high as the

2296
01:44:38,600 --> 01:44:40,280
Speaker 5: courtesy because they would tell you, man, I would take

2297
01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:43,720
Speaker 5: the concussion any day over torn acl Yeah, I would so.

2298
01:44:44,479 --> 01:44:46,080
Speaker 5: But now you're going to see more of those lower

2299
01:44:46,120 --> 01:44:48,680
Speaker 5: body injuries come back into the fold because people are

2300
01:44:48,760 --> 01:44:52,120
Speaker 5: going to start teaching tackling where hey, you need to

2301
01:44:52,160 --> 01:44:53,000
Speaker 5: wrap them up low.

2302
01:44:53,160 --> 01:44:55,120
Speaker 4: You need to go and attack them low. Don't even

2303
01:44:55,160 --> 01:44:56,639
Speaker 4: waste hitting them up high.

2304
01:44:56,800 --> 01:45:01,479
Speaker 5: Because Turma Machine, those things just stayed the course, and

2305
01:45:01,600 --> 01:45:02,360
Speaker 5: that's what they have to do.

2306
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:03,479
Speaker 4: They're gonna have to stay the course.

2307
01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:05,000
Speaker 5: They're gonna have to take the practice to the field,

2308
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:07,200
Speaker 5: but they're gonna have to really attack the lower body.

2309
01:45:07,800 --> 01:45:09,640
Speaker 2: One last question, because you would have the answer to

2310
01:45:09,800 --> 01:45:11,880
Speaker 2: tell about tackling. I know, you know growing up, I

2311
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:14,160
Speaker 2: watched football for a long long time, and the technique

2312
01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:17,439
Speaker 2: of tackling was always wrapping your arms around the guy's ankles.

2313
01:45:17,600 --> 01:45:19,719
Speaker 2: I don't see much of that kind of tackling anymore.

2314
01:45:19,800 --> 01:45:23,599
Speaker 2: I see shoving, pushing, you know, the horse collars basically out.

2315
01:45:23,640 --> 01:45:25,880
Speaker 2: But they still do it at times. You know, why

2316
01:45:26,040 --> 01:45:28,680
Speaker 2: is tackling changed over the years. Why don't they do

2317
01:45:28,840 --> 01:45:31,960
Speaker 2: that the old way, grab your arms around the guy's ankles.

2318
01:45:33,760 --> 01:45:36,040
Speaker 4: I would say players have gotten maybe lays with that.

2319
01:45:36,920 --> 01:45:39,960
Speaker 4: It's taught, they practiced. The players have to buy in

2320
01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:40,400
Speaker 4: and do it.

2321
01:45:41,040 --> 01:45:41,200
Speaker 10: You know.

2322
01:45:41,840 --> 01:45:44,200
Speaker 4: One of the benefits of doing with the Seattle Sex

2323
01:45:44,280 --> 01:45:46,160
Speaker 4: do they created a system where they were able to

2324
01:45:46,240 --> 01:45:49,760
Speaker 4: tackle all the time without like they were able to

2325
01:45:49,840 --> 01:45:51,400
Speaker 4: do it. They made the emphasis of it. They did

2326
01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:53,280
Speaker 4: it with dummies and those things.

2327
01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:55,000
Speaker 5: You want to be a good tackling team, you got

2328
01:45:55,120 --> 01:45:57,040
Speaker 5: to tackle all the time, you got to tackle in practice.

2329
01:45:57,320 --> 01:46:01,200
Speaker 5: And when they took the pads out of the practices

2330
01:46:01,920 --> 01:46:06,280
Speaker 5: with the CBA, people maybe neglected the fundamentals and those things.

2331
01:46:06,720 --> 01:46:08,800
Speaker 4: But good coaches showed that.

2332
01:46:08,800 --> 01:46:11,320
Speaker 5: There's a way to work around those rules, and so

2333
01:46:11,479 --> 01:46:13,320
Speaker 5: they'll they'll figure it out. They'll find a way to

2334
01:46:13,640 --> 01:46:15,400
Speaker 5: kind of make it happen. But yet the old school

2335
01:46:15,439 --> 01:46:16,920
Speaker 5: tackling has to come back, and it has to be

2336
01:46:17,320 --> 01:46:19,080
Speaker 5: really emphasized and talk correctly.

2337
01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:21,519
Speaker 2: When you teach football, there should be two things that

2338
01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:24,400
Speaker 2: be tilted right out of the box. Blocking and tackling.

2339
01:46:24,479 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 2: That's what it's all about, am I right? Blocking and tackling.

2340
01:46:28,479 --> 01:46:30,200
Speaker 4: I mean, look, football is a real simple game.

2341
01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:33,000
Speaker 5: It comes down to blocking, tackling, execution, and then taking

2342
01:46:33,040 --> 01:46:35,320
Speaker 5: care of the ball. If you don't turn it over,

2343
01:46:35,600 --> 01:46:36,479
Speaker 5: you take care of the ball.

2344
01:46:36,640 --> 01:46:38,720
Speaker 4: You block well, you tackle well, you can win a

2345
01:46:38,800 --> 01:46:39,400
Speaker 4: ton of games.

2346
01:46:39,680 --> 01:46:42,439
Speaker 5: That's just what it is. It's nothing fancy to the formula.

2347
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:44,920
Speaker 5: You just got to be willing to sit in the

2348
01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:47,840
Speaker 5: simplicity of that approach to win games.

2349
01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:49,000
Speaker 4: Here we go.

2350

Speaker 2: Thank you Martin, have a great day. We appreciate your

2411
01:49:45,160 --> 01:49:47,599
Speaker 2: help here, of course. Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman, Fox Sports

2412
01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:50,080
Speaker 2: Sunday on Fox Boots Hit. We got a caller in

2413
01:49:50,200 --> 01:49:52,120
Speaker 2: the great state of South to Cola Giant. You're on

2414
01:49:52,280 --> 01:49:56,320
Speaker 2: with Bucky Brooks on Foxpots on the Heello Gared, Hey,

2415
01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:57,880
Speaker 2: good morning, Hey, I want.

2416
01:49:57,800 --> 01:50:02,280
Speaker 11: To do first. Hey, Andy, it's the hip drop tackle

2417
01:50:02,400 --> 01:50:03,080
Speaker 11: not hip hop.

2418
01:50:03,280 --> 01:50:06,479
Speaker 3: Just so well, I said that hip drop compared to

2419
01:50:06,600 --> 01:50:07,880
Speaker 3: music hip hop hip drop.

2420
01:50:08,120 --> 01:50:12,240
Speaker 11: You're right, but Bucky. I want to ask you, because

2421
01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:15,240
Speaker 11: you've had these conversations. You're a scout, you played the game.

2422
01:50:15,600 --> 01:50:18,240
Speaker 11: Why do NFL teams seem to go all in on

2423
01:50:18,439 --> 01:50:22,000
Speaker 11: one young QB rather than have a competition. I think

2424
01:50:22,240 --> 01:50:25,479
Speaker 11: teams should be smart, get two guys, and that way

2425
01:50:25,560 --> 01:50:28,960
Speaker 11: you're doubling your chances of getting that franchise guy, because

2426
01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:31,840
Speaker 11: so many times you see a team they get a guy,

2427
01:50:32,240 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 11: they develop him for three four years, he doesn't work out,

2428
01:50:35,240 --> 01:50:37,479
Speaker 11: then you're starting over again. I just don't understand why

2429
01:50:37,640 --> 01:50:38,639
Speaker 11: all in on one guy?

2430
01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:39,000
Speaker 6: Why not?

2431
01:50:39,880 --> 01:50:41,639
Speaker 11: Let's because you can't win without a QB.

2432
01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:42,360
Speaker 12: That's all there is.

2433
01:50:44,720 --> 01:50:44,920
Speaker 4: Yeah.

2434
01:50:45,000 --> 01:50:50,640
Speaker 5: No, it's an old school thought process where all the

2435
01:50:50,720 --> 01:50:54,519
Speaker 5: practice reps goes to the number one starter, and teams

2436
01:50:54,520 --> 01:50:58,200
Speaker 5: are reluctant to bring in multiple guys that can play

2437
01:50:58,320 --> 01:51:00,519
Speaker 5: because then you have to split the and then it

2438
01:51:00,600 --> 01:51:03,120
Speaker 5: prevents the offense coordinator from getting through all the plays

2439
01:51:03,160 --> 01:51:03,920
Speaker 5: that he wants to run.

2440
01:51:04,640 --> 01:51:06,080
Speaker 4: I think at some point, though, that.

2441
01:51:06,520 --> 01:51:09,759
Speaker 5: Teams will wise up and they will treat the quarterbacks

2442
01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:12,880
Speaker 5: position much like you treat that position in college. We're

2443
01:51:12,880 --> 01:51:15,640
Speaker 5: gonna bring in some guys. We can bring in a

2444
01:51:15,720 --> 01:51:18,840
Speaker 5: big time guy every third or fourth year, and you

2445
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:21,080
Speaker 5: have to you have to compete. If you're playing well,

2446
01:51:21,120 --> 01:51:22,560
Speaker 5: you have nothing to worry about. But if you're not

2447
01:51:22,640 --> 01:51:25,080
Speaker 5: playing well, it gives us an opportunity to move somebody

2448
01:51:25,160 --> 01:51:25,439
Speaker 5: else in.

2449
01:51:27,040 --> 01:51:28,400
Speaker 4: Look, I think it's I think it's.

2450
01:51:28,520 --> 01:51:31,000
Speaker 5: A wide strategy that you're always stockpile of the quarterback

2451
01:51:31,120 --> 01:51:33,080
Speaker 5: room with guys that are that are capable of playing

2452
01:51:33,120 --> 01:51:33,680
Speaker 5: and playing well.

2453
01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:37,200
Speaker 11: All right, well, hey, thanks guys, you have a good one.

2454
01:51:37,560 --> 01:51:39,160
Speaker 2: You too, Thank you, Jared, Thanks for the quote. You know,

2455
01:51:39,280 --> 01:51:44,360
Speaker 2: talk about promotions that lower crowds into stadia and in ballparks. Okay,

2456
01:51:44,520 --> 01:51:48,360
Speaker 2: some creative problem, some creates, some national pr you know,

2457
01:51:48,680 --> 01:51:50,920
Speaker 2: a lot of people talk about it. I remember tension

2458
01:51:51,000 --> 01:51:53,080
Speaker 2: beer night back with the White Sox some many years ago.

2459
01:51:53,600 --> 01:51:55,519
Speaker 2: But Bowie is a T shirt night.

2460
01:51:55,840 --> 01:51:56,920
Speaker 3: You used to have bat days.

2461
01:51:56,960 --> 01:51:59,320
Speaker 2: People don't have that anymore because people getting hit over

2462
01:51:59,360 --> 01:52:01,400
Speaker 2: the head with bats and there's no more Ladies Day.

2463
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:03,479
Speaker 3: Because you know, that's the way it is in society.

2464
01:52:03,840 --> 01:52:05,639
Speaker 2: You know, back in the day, I was a part

2465
01:52:05,680 --> 01:52:08,439
Speaker 2: owner of a Monor League baseball team in Richmond, Indiana,

2466
01:52:08,479 --> 01:52:09,920
Speaker 2: call the Richmond Roosters, and.

2467
01:52:10,040 --> 01:52:12,200
Speaker 3: I had to pay what you weigh. I had a

2468
01:52:12,240 --> 01:52:13,480
Speaker 3: big truck scale.

2469
01:52:13,240 --> 01:52:15,240
Speaker 2: In front of the ballpark, and you paid a penny

2470
01:52:15,280 --> 01:52:17,439
Speaker 2: of pound whenever you weighed got in there. A lot

2471
01:52:17,479 --> 01:52:19,280
Speaker 2: of women weren't too hobby with that, but got a

2472
01:52:19,320 --> 01:52:21,560
Speaker 2: lot of pr about that. Pay what you weigh. But

2473
01:52:21,680 --> 01:52:24,760
Speaker 2: the Marlins have something. The Marlins are offering get this

2474
01:52:24,960 --> 01:52:28,720
Speaker 2: buck all you can eat, seats, all you can eat

2475
01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:34,000
Speaker 2: seats fifty two bucks, which includes get this unlimited access

2476
01:52:34,479 --> 01:52:37,760
Speaker 2: to food and beverages until the seventh inning. Now the

2477
01:52:37,880 --> 01:52:43,400
Speaker 2: menu includes obviously water, cookies, peanuts, popcorn, hot dogs, chili dogs,

2478

2479
01:52:49,360 --> 01:52:52,360
Speaker 2: with a limit of four items per trip. It's not

2480
01:52:52,439 --> 01:52:54,479
Speaker 2: a big deal, really, fifty two bucks, Well, you could

2481
01:52:54,520 --> 01:52:58,160
Speaker 2: eat until the seventh inning. That's not bad really, I

2482
01:52:58,200 --> 01:52:59,120
Speaker 2: mean it's pretty creative.

2483
01:52:59,160 --> 01:53:03,000
Speaker 4: I think, No, I mean sounds like a great deal.

2484
01:53:04,160 --> 01:53:06,120
Speaker 2: I would go for that, And I'm a pretty tight

2485
01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:08,559
Speaker 2: kind of guy. I would go for that. I pay

2486
01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:10,680
Speaker 2: for the fifty two bucks. But you go with a

2487
01:53:10,760 --> 01:53:12,760
Speaker 2: couple of guys, I guess, but you know, what do

2488
01:53:12,840 --> 01:53:14,800
Speaker 2: you do fifty two bucks for the guy next to you?

2489
01:53:15,320 --> 01:53:17,920
Speaker 2: You can't get him in his food because he'd have

2490
01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:19,760
Speaker 2: to pay fifty two bucks for the seat to sit

2491
01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:23,040
Speaker 2: next to you anyway, Right, So it doesn't make it

2492
01:53:23,080 --> 01:53:24,720
Speaker 2: diff if you want to load up. So if I'm

2493
01:53:24,720 --> 01:53:26,360
Speaker 2: going to the game with you and I pay fifty

2494
01:53:26,400 --> 01:53:28,439
Speaker 2: two dollars for the seat, and I want to load

2495
01:53:28,520 --> 01:53:30,439
Speaker 2: up big time for you and me, you know how

2496
01:53:30,479 --> 01:53:32,040
Speaker 2: do I get it to you unless you sit next

2497
01:53:32,080 --> 01:53:36,000
Speaker 2: to me? So you got to pay fifty two Also, See,

2498
01:53:36,000 --> 01:53:37,160
Speaker 2: I'm trying to beat the system.

2499
01:53:37,560 --> 01:53:39,040
Speaker 3: It's not bad. It's not a bad deal.

2500
01:53:39,160 --> 01:53:41,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know if you can game the system,

2501
01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:42,840
Speaker 4: can't beat the system.

2502
01:53:42,920 --> 01:53:45,080
Speaker 2: There we go, all right, By the way, just like

2503

2523
01:54:40,480 --> 01:54:42,560
Speaker 2: But right now it's time to let us some steam.

2524
01:54:42,720 --> 01:54:43,920
Speaker 2: We're gonna play the blame game.

2525
01:54:44,000 --> 01:54:44,360
Speaker 3: Let it go.

2526
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:48,960
Speaker 1: You ruin me. It's all your fault. No, it's your fault.

2527
01:54:49,320 --> 01:54:56,400
Speaker 1: It is all your fault. Maybe it's everyone's fault. Who knows,

2528
01:54:56,520 --> 01:54:59,040
Speaker 1: see the liar. That's why there's the blame game.

2529
01:54:59,120 --> 01:54:59,760
Speaker 3: The blame game.

2530
01:55:00,160 --> 01:55:04,440
Speaker 1: Figure out who to blame, the blame game game.

2531
01:55:04,800 --> 01:55:07,720
Speaker 3: Go ahead, I'm blaming you. I'm blaming you right now.

2532
01:55:08,000 --> 01:55:11,080
Speaker 12: All right, I feel attacked. But okay, so first question

2533
01:55:11,160 --> 01:55:13,640
Speaker 12: here for the blame game. Saint John's as well as

2534
01:55:13,680 --> 01:55:17,400
Speaker 12: some other NCUBA basketball teams. No Orthy teams missed the

2535
01:55:17,600 --> 01:55:21,040
Speaker 12: nc DOUBLEA Tournament but turned down an invite to the NIT.

2536
01:55:21,760 --> 01:55:22,920
Speaker 12: Andy who do you blame?

2537
01:55:23,200 --> 01:55:25,160
Speaker 2: Well, let's stick with Saint John's for a minute, because

2538
01:55:25,160 --> 01:55:26,880
Speaker 2: I think it's RiPP Patino. But as only does his

2539
01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:30,160
Speaker 2: wine and cry, he's a narcissist, and he said, hey, look,

2540
01:55:30,480 --> 01:55:32,120
Speaker 2: you know I'm not going.

2541
01:55:32,160 --> 01:55:33,760
Speaker 3: We should have been in the NCAA tournament.

2542
01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:37,320
Speaker 2: First of all, the NIT is just as much history

2543
01:55:37,360 --> 01:55:40,360
Speaker 2: in New York as Madison Square Guard. For him to

2544
01:55:40,440 --> 01:55:44,080
Speaker 2: turn down the NIT is bad. It's bad for Saint John's.

2545
01:55:44,080 --> 01:55:45,840
Speaker 2: It's bad for him, bit for everybody else. So I

2546
01:55:45,960 --> 01:55:49,160
Speaker 2: blame Rip Patino for that team. For Saint John's turning

2547
01:55:49,200 --> 01:55:51,160
Speaker 2: down to the NIT. Are the schools they have their

2548
01:55:51,200 --> 01:55:54,839
Speaker 2: own reasons. Perhaps maybe they want to evaluate the portal.

2549
01:55:55,160 --> 01:55:58,280
Speaker 2: Guys are going into the portal right after the selection Sunday,

2550
01:55:58,320 --> 01:56:01,320
Speaker 2: so I guess other schools have their deal. Some coaches

2551
01:56:01,360 --> 01:56:03,520
Speaker 2: are leaving whatever they want to do with their roster.

2552
01:56:03,760 --> 01:56:05,960
Speaker 2: But as far as Saint John's concerned, it's all on

2553
01:56:06,160 --> 01:56:09,200
Speaker 2: Rick Patino. Really, he was too big, he thought for

2554
01:56:09,320 --> 01:56:12,240
Speaker 2: the NIT. And that's a damn shame because the NIT

2555
01:56:12,840 --> 01:56:14,120
Speaker 2: is part of New York City.

2556
01:56:14,560 --> 01:56:15,520
Speaker 12: Bucky. Who do you blame?

2557
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:18,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's a part of New York City, but

2558
01:56:18,120 --> 01:56:20,800
Speaker 5: it's the NCAA's fought. Saint John should have been in

2559
01:56:20,880 --> 01:56:23,960
Speaker 5: the tournament, not Virginia, not some of those other teams

2560
01:56:24,000 --> 01:56:24,920
Speaker 5: that were vying to get in.

2561
01:56:25,080 --> 01:56:28,000
Speaker 4: We saw Virginia get absolutely molly wopped the first round.

2562
01:56:28,400 --> 01:56:30,800
Speaker 5: Saint John should have been in. They won multiple games

2563
01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:33,160
Speaker 5: in the Big East Tournament. They were deserving of it.

2564
01:56:33,360 --> 01:56:36,000
Speaker 5: And so I understand, Rick Patino, We're not settling for

2565
01:56:36,040 --> 01:56:38,839
Speaker 5: a consolation prize. We're either playing in the Big Tournament

2566
01:56:39,040 --> 01:56:39,960
Speaker 5: or we're gonna sit at home.

2567
01:56:40,240 --> 01:56:41,440
Speaker 4: Rick Petino did the right thing.

2568
01:56:41,920 --> 01:56:44,600
Speaker 12: I'm gonna give Bucky a point on that course of course.

2569
01:56:44,840 --> 01:56:47,040
Speaker 3: Of course, why do I even play next? Really?

2570
01:56:47,360 --> 01:56:50,320
Speaker 12: Next? So Deon Sanders recently sat on a podcast in

2571
01:56:50,440 --> 01:56:53,440
Speaker 12: regard to his son Shuder and teammate Travis Hunter's draft

2572
01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:55,680
Speaker 12: next year, that it could be an ELI situation and

2573
01:56:55,800 --> 01:56:57,280
Speaker 12: certain cities will be out of the question.

2574
01:56:58,600 --> 01:57:02,160
Speaker 7: Will do you prediction shot doing traff is going in the.

2575
01:57:02,240 --> 01:57:06,840
Speaker 10: Draft top four, that's pretty beautiful, anywhere from one to four.

2576
01:57:07,240 --> 01:57:09,680
Speaker 10: One of them is gonna be one and the latter

2577
01:57:09,760 --> 01:57:12,720
Speaker 10: one would not go behind four. I know where I

2578
01:57:12,800 --> 01:57:15,400
Speaker 10: won't kind of want them to go. So it's certain

2579
01:57:15,440 --> 01:57:19,080
Speaker 10: cities that ain't gonna happen. It's okay, it's gonna be.

2580
01:57:19,200 --> 01:57:20,600
Speaker 10: It's not that I'm sorry, it's gonna be.

2581
01:57:20,560 --> 01:57:22,720
Speaker 7: A eli Andy.

2582
01:57:22,960 --> 01:57:23,600
Speaker 12: Who do you blame?

2583
01:57:24,000 --> 01:57:24,800
Speaker 3: That's disgusting?

2584
01:57:25,040 --> 01:57:27,200
Speaker 2: I blame in Dion, because you know, when you're a kid,

2585
01:57:27,600 --> 01:57:30,040
Speaker 2: you know your eyes are wide open, the like silver dollars.

2586
01:57:30,080 --> 01:57:31,480
Speaker 2: You can't wait to get draft that you want to

2587
01:57:31,480 --> 01:57:33,200
Speaker 2: get an opportunity to play in the NFL. That's the

2588
01:57:33,240 --> 01:57:34,960
Speaker 2: way the system is. You know, if you're gonna be

2589
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:37,080
Speaker 2: one to four in the draft, obviously you're gonna go

2590
01:57:37,080 --> 01:57:39,400
Speaker 2: to a bad team. That's just the way it works. Okay,

2591
01:57:39,720 --> 01:57:42,280
Speaker 2: and the cities, I mean, who the hell are you

2592
01:57:42,640 --> 01:57:45,520
Speaker 2: to pick? I tell your kid, I go public right now,

2593
01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:47,920
Speaker 2: a year before the draft, that they're not gonna go

2594
01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:48,720
Speaker 2: to a certain city.

2595
01:57:48,880 --> 01:57:49,680
Speaker 3: I think that's wrong.

2596
01:57:49,840 --> 01:57:50,080
Speaker 10: Dion.

2597
01:57:50,280 --> 01:57:52,200
Speaker 3: I love you to death, but right here, you're wrong

2598
01:57:52,280 --> 01:57:53,720
Speaker 3: and I don't like what you did.

2599
01:57:54,280 --> 01:57:55,160
Speaker 12: Fucky. Who do you blame?

2600
01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:57,200
Speaker 4: Yeah?

2601
01:57:57,240 --> 01:57:59,280
Speaker 5: I mean, look, I blame those bad teams that he

2602
01:57:59,400 --> 01:58:01,680
Speaker 5: wants to avoid. Wait, the teams that he's talking about

2603
01:58:01,720 --> 01:58:04,280
Speaker 5: are the teams that are dysfunctional. Why would you send

2604
01:58:04,360 --> 01:58:06,880
Speaker 5: your kid to a situation that is that is not

2605
01:58:07,600 --> 01:58:09,880
Speaker 5: for the best of them? And so I understand that

2606
01:58:09,960 --> 01:58:12,640
Speaker 5: he's talking about Eli Manning. He's talking about what Archie

2607
01:58:12,680 --> 01:58:15,000
Speaker 5: Manning did by not letting him go to the Chargers

2608
01:58:15,440 --> 01:58:17,919
Speaker 5: option for the Giants because of the Blue Blood franchise.

2609
01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:21,000
Speaker 5: The Charges were a little bit dysfunctional, didn't like ownership.

2610
01:58:21,360 --> 01:58:23,640
Speaker 4: I understand it. And if you have the power and.

2611
01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:25,360
Speaker 5: The Jews to be able to do it, you should

2612
01:58:25,400 --> 01:58:28,120
Speaker 5: definitely swing on it, because that's the only time you

2613
01:58:28,200 --> 01:58:29,440
Speaker 5: have an opportunity to wield to him.

2614
01:58:29,800 --> 01:58:31,360
Speaker 12: All right, point to Andy on that one.

2615
01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:33,680
Speaker 2: You know what, don't look, I'm gonna tell you right now,

2616
01:58:33,720 --> 01:58:36,200
Speaker 2: Bucky won that one. So don't give me any any

2617
01:58:37,240 --> 01:58:40,640
Speaker 2: any You know what I'm saying. I don't want sympathy.

2618
01:58:41,160 --> 01:58:42,000
Speaker 2: I don't want sympathy.

2619
01:58:42,160 --> 01:58:43,640
Speaker 3: Bucky won. Now give it to Bucky.

2620
01:58:43,720 --> 01:58:47,400
Speaker 12: All right, Well we'll give it. Buy your point. You're

2621
01:58:47,440 --> 01:58:48,280
Speaker 12: giving their point.

2622
01:58:48,120 --> 01:58:50,200
Speaker 3: To Okay, Now you're intimidated by me.

2623
01:58:50,320 --> 01:58:51,880
Speaker 12: Now you're donating a point about it.

2624
01:58:52,160 --> 01:58:55,040
Speaker 3: You're intimidated. I got a condo in your head right now?

2625
01:58:55,320 --> 01:58:56,800
Speaker 1: What chance I own you?

2626
01:58:56,960 --> 01:58:57,280
Speaker 3: Right now?

2627
01:58:57,320 --> 01:58:57,640
Speaker 7: All right?

2628
01:58:57,880 --> 01:59:01,879
Speaker 12: The Chiefs traded star cornerback Jerryus Snead to the Titans

2629
01:59:01,920 --> 01:59:04,400
Speaker 12: for a third round pick in next year's draft, along

2630
01:59:04,480 --> 01:59:07,320
Speaker 12: with a seventh round pick swap in next month's draft.

2631
01:59:07,680 --> 01:59:10,040
Speaker 12: Fans were hoping the Chiefs would either keep Snead or

2632
01:59:10,040 --> 01:59:12,120
Speaker 12: get a little more in return for him. Bucky, who

2633
01:59:12,160 --> 01:59:12,640
Speaker 12: do you blame?

2634
01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:17,480
Speaker 5: Look, I just blamed the marketplace right now, we haven't

2635
01:59:17,520 --> 01:59:20,760
Speaker 5: seen any trades that have delivered big returns for the

2636
01:59:20,800 --> 01:59:23,160
Speaker 5: team that was trading away a player the Jerry Sneed

2637
01:59:23,280 --> 01:59:25,760
Speaker 5: is a great player. Look, he's one of the best

2638
01:59:25,800 --> 01:59:29,160
Speaker 5: that we've seen in his position, but teams are holding

2639
01:59:29,720 --> 01:59:33,080
Speaker 5: tightly to those first round picks. The league didn't view

2640
01:59:33,200 --> 01:59:35,160
Speaker 5: him as a transcendent start. That's why they were only

2641
01:59:35,200 --> 01:59:36,560
Speaker 5: able to get a third round pick back.

2642
01:59:37,360 --> 01:59:39,760
Speaker 2: And oh I was Sammy Snead was a great golfer.

2643
01:59:39,840 --> 01:59:42,400
Speaker 2: But that's another story. Okay, but we move on. I

2644
01:59:42,480 --> 01:59:44,440
Speaker 2: think they traded him obviously. When there's a problem with

2645
01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:47,440
Speaker 2: the question walk why things are done, it's about money,

2646
01:59:47,600 --> 01:59:50,320
Speaker 2: you know, they want to loosen up the purse strings.

2647
01:59:50,480 --> 01:59:51,160
Speaker 3: They traded him.

2648
01:59:51,320 --> 01:59:53,280
Speaker 2: Look, they feel that they could still win, and he

2649
01:59:53,360 --> 01:59:55,400
Speaker 2: was a great player, but they'll still win without him.

2650
01:59:55,400 --> 01:59:58,880
Speaker 2: We saw that with their receiver. They win. This is

2651
01:59:58,920 --> 02:00:01,480
Speaker 2: a team that wins. Got Patrick Mahomes on the center,

2652
02:00:01,600 --> 02:00:03,400
Speaker 2: you're going to win. So I don't think it's a

2653
02:00:03,440 --> 02:00:03,960
Speaker 2: big whoop.

2654
02:00:04,160 --> 02:00:04,520
Speaker 7: They did it.

2655
02:00:04,600 --> 02:00:07,120
Speaker 3: They did it because it was that's a financial deal.

2656
02:00:07,280 --> 02:00:08,040
Speaker 3: That's why they did it.

2657
02:00:08,200 --> 02:00:09,920
Speaker 12: All right, Another point to Bucky. He's getting all the

2658
02:00:09,920 --> 02:00:14,360
Speaker 12: points the rest of the round. But baseball season, get

2659
02:00:14,400 --> 02:00:14,920
Speaker 12: all the points.

2660
02:00:15,160 --> 02:00:16,840
Speaker 4: He can get all the points. We can give all

2661
02:00:16,880 --> 02:00:18,000
Speaker 4: the points. We can give more the points.

2662
02:00:18,920 --> 02:00:20,360
Speaker 3: I don't want sympathy really.

2663
02:00:22,040 --> 02:00:24,560
Speaker 12: All right, Well, baseball season open Wednesday at six am

2664
02:00:24,680 --> 02:00:27,320
Speaker 12: Eastern time. That's very early. Would the NFL ever do this?

2665
02:00:27,400 --> 02:00:28,320
Speaker 12: Who do you blame? Andy?

2666
02:00:28,800 --> 02:00:31,440
Speaker 2: I played the morons that run Major League Baseball. I mean, really,

2667
02:00:31,560 --> 02:00:33,640
Speaker 2: give me a break. Come on, go ahead, Bucky, go ahead,

2668
02:00:33,720 --> 02:00:34,960
Speaker 2: give me the point, go ahead.

2669
02:00:35,760 --> 02:00:36,840
Speaker 4: NFL doesn't need to do it.

2670
02:00:36,960 --> 02:00:37,160
Speaker 13: He can.

2671
02:00:37,280 --> 02:00:39,400
Speaker 2: He's not even gonna do it. All right, thank you,

2672
02:00:39,560 --> 02:00:41,320
Speaker 2: have a great day, everybody on Fox.
