00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 4: You know, it's great because you know, the cops have

34
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: to where the bodycare bodycam, so you get to see

35
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 4: a lot of interactions. And I'm gonna tell you this,

36
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 4: I'm not I've been stopped by the police way more

37
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 4: than I should have.

38
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 5: And I was racial.

39
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 4: I was racial profil And when I lived in Bloomfield

40
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 4: Hills in Michigan, Michigan, I used to drive from the

41
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 4: radio station I used to be on at ten pm

42
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 4: at night, get off at ten at one am, drive

43
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 4: home down Woodward Avenue, and I used to get stopped

44
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 4: almost every night.

45
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 5: And they were just never got a ticket.

46
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 4: Where you're going it was it was just straight up

47
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 4: in a nice car, Yeah what are you doing here?

48
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 4: And all this stuff and I'm like, what what do

49
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 4: you mean? Did I did? I my speeding like they

50
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 4: without one ticket. I got stopped like eight times in

51
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 4: like three or four months.

52
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 5: I even called an attorney.

53
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 4: I was going to have a suit because I was

54
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 4: like without getting one ticket. But anyway, Uh, there was

55
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 4: a point to the madness and I just forgot it.

56
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 2: Well know what you were saying. I guess my point

57
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: is to have had it be able to be.

58
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 5: Oh oh yeah tape.

59
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 4: So now watching on you know, social media, and you

60
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 4: see a lot of people, Man, they're social media like muscles.

61
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 4: They don't listen, like like a lot of it is belligerate.

62
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 4: I see why there's so many incidents on the side

63
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 4: of the road.

64
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 5: I mean, you know what I'm saying.

65
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 4: You watch them too, like there's there's a I just

66
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 4: don't get it like to in some situations you even

67
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 4: see the coppers like I'm gonna give you a warning.

68
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 5: But if this escalates, then I have no you know

69
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 5: what I mean, I have no choice.

70
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: Some people, Yeah, some people are belligerent. Some people are entitled.

71
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 2: You know how dare you right?

72
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 6: Uh?

73
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 2: And it makes and it makes it bad because then

74
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 2: it tries to take away from as you mentioned, the

75
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: situations that are more like what you were dealing with right,

76
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 2: like I'm dealing.

77
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 4: With like that's what I'm saying, Like like there's a

78
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 4: there's a there's two sides to it, and there's some

79
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 4: cops are over zealous, and I have a lot of

80
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 4: cops in my family.

81
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 5: And all that. I could go on and on and on.

82
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 4: But my point is is I'm glad that they have

83
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 4: the body cam so you can see. But anyway, rob Ge,

84
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 4: we saw some bodycam that actually turned my stomach.

85
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, that involved Tiger Woods. Been the big story for

86
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 7: about a week and a half now. Tiger Woods, of course,

87
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 7: had a motor vehicle incident last week, ended up flipping

88
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 7: over his suv because he was allegedly under the influence

89
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 7: of prescription medication. And as the bodycamp footage has come

90
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 7: out slowly but surely, one thing that we saw here

91
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 7: in the most recent clip is Tiger Woods is waiting

92
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 7: near the police cruiser while the police are getting ready

93
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 7: to do his fields of briety test, and at one

94
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 7: point he kind of steps away from the vehicle to

95
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 7: use the phone and you can hear him saying thank

96
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 7: you so much, all right, you got it. By afterwards,

97
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 7: Tiger walks back casually tells the sheriff deputy.

98
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 5: Quote, Yeah, I.

99
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 7: Was just talking to the president.

100
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 4: That kind of raising my brow absolutely, boy, talk about

101
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 4: trying to flex on people right now.

102
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 5: He didn't even say. I would have said, who the

103
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 5: PTA president?

104
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: Who are you talking to?

105
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 5: Right? I was just talking to the president. Somebody by

106
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 5: the PGA president. Are you suspected what they say? Like,

107
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 5: That's what I would have said if I was a

108
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 5: smart alley.

109
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 4: But but Kelvin, I'm gonna be real, And I've talked

110
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 4: to you about this before. Everybody on this show knows

111
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 4: it because I've talked about Tiger Woods, and as time

112
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 4: has gone on, I become more and more ashamed of

113
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 4: what I've invested in Tiger Woods's success. I was, I

114
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 4: was very proud of Tiger Woods when he broke onto

115
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 4: the scene, what he was able to do.

116
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 5: Winning that masters.

117
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 4: I told you I was on my honeymoon in Tokyo

118
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 4: and me and my wife then are sitting on the

119
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 4: edge of the bed watching an historic moment and basking

120
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 4: in it. And Kelvin I went out and I bought

121
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 4: all of his stuff, the golf hat and you know

122
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 4: I love to wear golf shirts and all that invested

123
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 4: in all that stuff. And as time has gone on,

124
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 4: and here's the other one that I thought, Wow, this

125
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 4: guy is something special.

126
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 5: If you remember, somebody go look it up.

127
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 4: His very first TV commercial with Nike, he talks about, hey,

128
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 4: at a lot of these country clubs, I.

129
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 5: Can't even play there. Do you remember that? Like that

130
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,600
Speaker 5: was wow.

131
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 4: We got this young brother who was a hell of

132
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 4: a golfer and he's calling out the golf elade. And

133
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 4: you know, at Augusta for a long time there were

134
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 4: no black members and people eighty nine thank you, and

135
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 4: Tiger could have easily had an impact. But as time

136
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:55,839
Speaker 4: has gone on, I must admit the Oprah appearance where

137
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 4: he refused to I guess acknowledge that he was black,

138
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 4: you know, and I told you, yeah, he made up

139
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 4: some name that nobody had ever heard of.

140
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 5: That was the day I took all of his my

141
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 5: Tiger Wood stuff and I.

142
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 4: Put it in a box and went to the Salvation Army.

143
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 4: And I haven't won any since. And it's just the

144
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 4: real talk. I'm being honest. But what I've seen now

145
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 4: is entitledment, you know, the Trump stuff, like I don't

146
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 4: even recognize this guy, and why I was so invested

147
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 4: in Tiger Woods when I just I feel as the

148
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 4: years have gone on, I have less and less attachment

149
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 4: or things in common with him. And I'm telling you

150
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 4: I was invested in Tiger Woods. I really was. Didn't

151
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 4: if he was on playing turn it on. And you know,

152
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 4: golf is during baseball season, so you know if I'm

153
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 4: turning on turning away from baseball to watch you know

154
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 4: what I mean?

155
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 5: Like you had me, I couldn't be further away from

156
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 5: Tiger Woods.

157
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 4: Kelvin and that shot of him flexing talking about you know, hey,

158
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 4: I'm in trouble. Let me call the president and let

159
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 4: him know so that he can whatever whatever whatever that

160
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 4: it just turned my stomach today.

161
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: I appreciate your breakdown, your soliloquy, your thoughts there, because

162
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 2: I don't think it really can be understated. I mean,

163
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 2: we're talking about maybe Michael Jordan, maybe Tiger Woods of

164
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 2: the last what forty plus years? As far as just

165
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: super megasports personalities or sports figures in American history. I

166
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 2: mean you might go like Babe Ruth, Muhammad, Ali Jordan,

167
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 2: Tiger seriously, like that that might be the Mount rush

168
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 2: More of American sports heroes and so you're not. You're

169
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,439
Speaker 2: not wrong for how you felt. You're not isolated or alone,

170
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 2: You're not an anomaly. Everyone was invested. Whatever your thing was,

171
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: you could cling to the Tiger Wood story. Did you

172
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 2: just love it? A person who is incredibly talented and

173
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 2: who was better than anyone else by far at their

174
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 2: particular time. Well, that's why you could be invested. If

175
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: you love to see a black man in America that's

176
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 2: doing something that we're never seen at that caliber, that

177
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,839
Speaker 2: that level, you were invested. If you just wanted to

178
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: see a young dude dominating, then you got it. Whatever

179
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 2: your thing was, a dude that was doing it with

180
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 2: some charisma, some energy, with the fist pumps and yelling,

181
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 2: and typically you don't get that in golf, you can

182
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 2: find whatever. If you wanted to go with just a

183
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 2: young good where we thought role model, a guy that

184
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 2: you would say hey to your son or your daughter, A.

185
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 5: Family man, a family like the way he was portrayed.

186
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely you say hey, that's that's that's the guy to follow.

187
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: So we are all sold this bill of goods. We

188
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 2: all bought in for whatever. Like I said, I gave

189
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 2: listened out all the multitude of reasons why you would

190
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,719
Speaker 2: bite that apple and say I'm in on that. And

191
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 2: I think what's made it hard is because it's been

192
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: a gradual downfall of multitude of things. Right, It's not

193
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 2: if it were Infidela, you could say, hey, that's between

194
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 2: him and her. It happens, maybe he'll learn from a growth.

195
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 2: For Okay, if it were just hanging out with the

196
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: Marines and taking full advantage of them and not you know,

197
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 2: paying for lunch and dinner, not being around them and

198
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 2: being kind of jerks to them. This is according to them,

199
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 2: you'd be like, all right, that's a little weird. If

200
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 2: it's not for maybe you wanted them to speak up

201
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 2: more for social commentary and social justice. Like it started

202
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: to just spiral down where you're like, man, he's not

203
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 2: giving me anything. And if you just want to say,

204
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 2: I like to keep everything out of all that, I

205
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 2: just want to stick to sports. Well, it was hurt.

206
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 2: It was never the same, So there you didn't even

207
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 2: have that to Leno. So it's been a down word

208
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 2: spiral for the last fifteen years that we've all witnessed.

209
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: We kind of witness this slow burn, if you will.

210
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: It's been tough to see and the first thing I

211
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 2: thought of when I saw that video of him saying, Hey,

212
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: I just got the phone to president. It made me think, Rob,

213
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 2: how many times has he done this? And we just

214
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 2: don't know?

215
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,599
Speaker 5: Right, That's why I made up the body cam that.

216
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 5: It was great that they captured that.

217
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 2: How many times has he gotten in trouble in Florida

218
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,079
Speaker 2: somewhere else called the president? Maybe he was the former

219
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 2: president at that time, because obviously you know, in between

220
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 2: his first and second term, did he call someone else?

221
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 2: And then it makes me concern, Rob that will shoot?

222
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 2: How many times has he had these traffic incidents? These

223
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: are just the ones we know about, right. We know

224
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 2: about the one that happened first of all, the one

225
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,040
Speaker 2: that happened with his wife when she busts his windows

226
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 2: out while he was driving he crashed into the hydrant

227
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 2: or whatever, so many years ago, the dui in twenty seventeen,

228
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: Remember he falls asleep in his car. You got the

229
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 2: one that happened in twenty twenty one. You got to

230
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, You got to two thousand and nine. I

231
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 2: mentioned with his wife hitting his car. Now remember has

232
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 2: flipped his car in twenty twenty one. Now he's flipped

233
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: his car again. I mean, are there incidents we don't

234
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,200
Speaker 2: know about? I said, when I immediately thought, how many

235
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 2: times has he gotten in trouble and bailed out because

236
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 2: he called somebody? It's just been tragic what's happened. I

237
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 2: don't know if it's God covering his life and the

238
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 2: lights of others around him that he hasn't killed himself

239
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 2: or killed other people. But it's been tragic, and I

240
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 2: hope he gets his life together. Screw golf is not

241
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 2: about that anymore, But you're right, it has been sad

242
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 2: to watch the downfall of one of the again mount

243
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: Rushmoores of American sports heroes in Tiger Woods. We've all

244
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 2: been witnessed to it for the since two thousand and nine.

245
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 2: That's the kind of the line of demarcation when it

246
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 2: went downhill ever since then.

247
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 4: And that Tiger Woods commercial we're talking about, he doesn't

248
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 4: say it, but it's a commercial that talks about right,

249
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 4: he couldn't play this certain country clubs he wouldn't be

250
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 4: able allowed to play in.

251
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 5: But you got my point. That was the tone of

252
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 5: the of the commercial.

253
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 7: Right, No, the tone of the commercial is, these are

254
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 7: all the things that I've done, and are you ready

255
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 7: for me? Like, hello world, I'm Tiger Woods. So I

256
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,719
Speaker 7: am a three time amateur champion. I've shot in the

257
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 7: sixties when I was twelve. Then towards the end of

258
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 7: the commercial, he says, there are still courses in the

259
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 7: United States. I'm not allowed to play of the color

260
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 7: of my skins.

261
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 4: There you go, and then and that, and that's my

262
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 4: whole point is that that was the Tiger Woods until

263
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 4: they got to him, like like seriously, well, his very very.

264
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,319
Speaker 7: First commercial with Nike, because that was one of the

265
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:35,840
Speaker 7: early ones, his very first one.

266
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 5: Then it was actually a great commercial actually was.

267
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 7: It's him doing golf stuff, but he never talks in it.

268
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 7: He's just in the background. The show is swinging whatever,

269
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 7: and it's a bunch of little kids of different ages

270
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 7: and ethnicities saying I am Tiger Woods. And it's a

271
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 7: black kid, one's an Asian kid with a Mexican kid.

272
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 7: There's one with the kids standing behind a sign that

273
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 7: says like welfare. There's one of the kids standing front of.

274
00:13:58,679 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying.

275
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 7: So he was trying to appeal that anybody can golf,

276
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 7: no matter who you are, right, And that was his

277
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 7: whole marketing campaign.

278
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 4: And when I think of it, the last thing I'm

279
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 4: gonna say is when you consider the impact he had

280
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 4: and you just talked about the other players who would

281
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 4: put on this sports impact, right, Yeah, impact is probably

282
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 4: because Babe Ruth was doing something like people who don't

283
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 4: know when Babe Ruth was hitting fifty home runs Kelvin,

284
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 4: other guys in the big leagues were hitting five home

285
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 4: runs like it was, it was like something like out

286
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 4: of this world. And so he had a huge impact

287
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 4: on how baseball became popular. But anyway, my point is

288
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 4: that through all of his successes and everything, we didn't

289
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 4: get a black golfer. We didn't get too black, We

290
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 4: didn't get any black golfers, Like I mind boggling because

291
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 4: a lot of black people took up golf when Tyger

292
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 4: am I right and started going out there with Tiger Woods.

293
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 2: It's amazing being more recreational than professional. And you can

294
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 2: see the trick of the effect of the Williams sisters

295
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 2: because you started to get the Naomi Osaka.

296
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying.

297
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got the Cocos golfs, you got the Sloan Stevens,

298
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 2: you got I mean I can go Madison Keys, you

299
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 2: can go on and on. You started to see the

300
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 2: trickle down and when it comes to golf, I mean tennis.

301
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: We never quite got that in golf, which is interesting

302
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 2: considering again how massive Tiger Woods. I mean, my gosh,

303
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 2: Like I said, other than Michael Jordan the last fifty years,

304
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's anyone bigger in sports than

305
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 2: Tiger Woods was in America at least.

306
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 4: This is an interesting conversation I love to hear from

307
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 4: people if you're listening. Given the way his career has

308
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 4: played out and all his transgressions, all you was shamed

309
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 4: of being a Tiger Woods fan at this point, or no,

310
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 4: he's lived up to it, or people make mistakes and

311
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,040
Speaker 4: you just accept it and it's just about his greatness

312
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 4: on the golf course, or maybe just doesn't bother you

313
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 4: at all, you don't have a feeling. I'm just telling

314
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 4: you how invested I was to be on my honeymoon

315
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 4: in Japan and given that time to Tiger Woods.

316
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 2: I get it.

317
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 4: That's where That's really where it was for me. It's personal,

318
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 4: do you know what I mean? Like, seriously, I could

319
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,040
Speaker 4: have easily I wasn't working I was on vacation, I

320
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 4: was on my honeymoon. I could have turned the TV

321
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 4: off and said, no, that's how big it was to me.

322
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: I think Rob for I think the lesson learned from me,

323
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 2: and it not just now because it's learned earlier, but

324
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 2: it is a reminder that athletes are still humans who

325
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 2: have their own demons and issues, and we can't keep

326
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:36,359
Speaker 2: putting them up here where they're almost superhuman.

327
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 5: I'm not asking for anybody to be perfect, but he's

328
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 5: done like a time, which I know what I mean.

329
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 4: I'm not saying this is not after all the other train.

330
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 4: I'm just telling you, like where he was in my eyes.

331
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 2: He's missed it. He's missed in a lot of areas

332
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: in the last fifteen years.

369
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 2: it as like you yourself, you were invested in Tiger.

370
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: There's a handful of people throughout my life at athlete wise,

371

Speaker 2: maybe even entertainers that I can say it was beyond

372
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:02,479

374
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 2: I feel invested into watch.

375
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 4: I mean that's what That's the right word. That's not

376
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 4: like yeah, like god, I just was something.

377
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 2: I like the way you I really I was telling

378
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,680

00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, let's do that.

382
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 2: It was the fall of them, the fall from grace.

383
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 2: Where is it for you? How do you feel about this?

384
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 2: Maybe you don't care. Maybe he was just an athlete.

385
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 2: Maybe you were invested, like Rob, what we got.

386
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 4: H James and Boise. You're in the odd couple of

387
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio. What's up, James, James.

388
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm here, go ahead.

389
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 2: We got you, We got you.

390
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 9: Hey.

391
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 4: Uh.

392
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 8: I was looking at you guys, and I understand what

393
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 8: you're saying about Tiger and falling from grace, and but

394
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,680
Speaker 8: you guys are maybe forgetting the fact that he's probably

395
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 8: been enabled by all these doctors through his surgeries to

396
00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 8: get all these paid medications. And I, for one know

397
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 8: that those things are pretty addictive.

398
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 4: I get that, but it's very I'm not just saying

399
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,919
Speaker 4: that there are people. I'm not saying he had to

400
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 4: be perfect or that he didn't have. People have bumps

401
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 4: in life, great comeback stories, So that's That's not what

402
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 4: I'm saying. It's just a bigger for me, James, more

403
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 4: than just that. You know, the video of him I

404
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 4: just talked to the president kind of thing, just like

405
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 4: just made my skin crawl.

406
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 5: I'm just being honest. Thanks for the call, James.

407
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 2: No doubt James ain't wrong though. I mean what Purdue

408
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 2: Pharmaceuticals did to a lot of Americans, and I got

409
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 2: personal family members who went through there and they were

410
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 2: pumping doctor Letting doctors pump people up with opiois not

411
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 2: caring giving kickbacks to doctors and salespeople as long as

412
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 2: they were getting people drugged up. Man, that was yeah,

413
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 2: James ain't wrong with that.

414
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 5: Kurt in North Dakota. You're on the Young Couple Fox

415
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 5: Sports Radio.

416
00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 10: Thanks for taking my car, Rob. You guys are the best.

417
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 5: Thank you, buddy, Robert.

418
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 10: I'm with you one hundred percent to what you said

419
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 10: about Tiger. You know, I loved him. I'm not a golfer,

420
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 10: but I loved him, and uh, you know, I can

421
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,200
Speaker 10: I can picture his Sunday outfit right now. But he's

422
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 10: really been disappointing. And the fact that he would hook

423
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 10: up with with a guy like Trump, you know, and

424
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 10: everything that he kind of represents, that's very disappointing. But

425
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 10: the thing that really obsessed me most Rob, and you

426
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 10: kind of touched on a little bit was the fact

427
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 10: that he did that to that that officer, because that's

428
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 10: just thrown it in the officer's face. He's saying, basically saying,

429
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 10: if you to the officer, you look at me, and

430
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 10: you know, America, don't we love our first responders, you know,

431
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 10: supposedly first responder, right.

432
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 4: That was definitely uh hey, let me let you know

433
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 4: who I had on the phone exactly that you're nothing.

434
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 5: All right.

435
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 2: I appreciate you.

436
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 4: In one last one Will Okay and Wisconsin you're on

437
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 4: the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio.

438
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 5: What's up Will?

439
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 9: What's up?

440
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 2: Kil?

441
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 5: How are you?

442
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 2: What's up?

443
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 6: Fell?

444
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 10: Oh? Pretty good?

445
00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 2: Uh?

446
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 9: And Rob to your and you've you know, you've really

447
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 9: shared your esteem for Tiger in his you know, in

448
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 9: his heyday when he was playing really great. For me,

449
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 9: you know, I'm in that mid forties crowd when I was,

450
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 9: you know, a senior in high school, Tiger Woods, for

451
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 9: a lot of people, you know, in many connotations, presented

452
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 9: a different kind of black athlete. And I think that's

453
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 9: where a lot of the where people feel like disappointed,

454
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 9: but it's it's true silver lining is for you know

455
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 9: a lot of young athletes, they see someone like Tiger

456
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 9: where you still need to make sure you take care

457
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 9: of yourself, still need to do right by yourself. And Rob.

458
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 9: Not to make light of a situation, but I think

459
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 9: you'd appreciate the joke that I think the question is

460
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 9: answered now that if something happens to Tiger Wood, that

461
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,640
Speaker 9: his first person to call probably won't be Al Sharpton.

462
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 9: Thanks to take it a call.

463
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:55,840

00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 5: One makes our show different, and our show sounds different.

467
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 4: I don't care what anybody says, because we're willing to

468
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 4: share some moments and talk about situations that just aren't

469
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 4: x'es and o's and and when I tell you the

470
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 4: story is not a made up story, I've told you

471
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 4: a million times of being on being on your honeymoon

472
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,239
Speaker 4: and connecting to somebody like that.

473
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 5: Seriously, it doesn't get anything better than that. Turn the

474
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 5: TV off? What are you doing watching TV on your honeymoon? Right?

475
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 2: I mean, you know there's some consummations that I don't

476
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 2: even know if that's where I know you're supposed to

477
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 2: consummate it. That was supposed to happen. But dagg it,

478
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 2: it's all good. Tiger, get your life, don't don't worry.

479
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 5: She got the long game later.

480
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I was making sure as long as

481
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 2: you came back with your nine iron or you know

482
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 2: the four I'm.

483
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 5: Talking about golf, I had it so good today.

484
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 2: You see, it was like sure, conversation.

485
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,239
Speaker 5: It was like two bobbleheads in there. As soon as

486
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 5: I said two bobbleheads, you see them?

487
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 2: No, you know you had to you know your short

488

Speaker 10: I appreciate you guys having me.

501
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 2: Thanks Rob, Thanks Kelvin, thank you. Let's get into it. Man,

502
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 2: if you're a Laker fan or just a basketball fan,

503
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 2: you're looking forward to the playoffs coming up here in

504
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks. You didn't want to see Luca

505
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 2: go down hamstrings or tricky, tell us a little bit

506
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 2: more about what you saw. We're saying he's at least

507
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 2: the rest of the regular season. What do we know.

508
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 6: Yeah, so here's an encouraging thing. Luca had the same injury,

509
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 6: same exact injury, same exact location on February fifth. Is

510
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 6: the biceps S.

511
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 10: Fremers tendon.

512
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,479
Speaker 6: There's three tendons that make up the ham strength and

513
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 6: they come from the televis they insert around the knee,

514
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 6: and the one that's on the lateral or the outside

515
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 6: part of the knee is called the biceps S. Fremers tendon.

516
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 6: That's the one that he grabbed. The one if it

517
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 6: was more media will probably the other two semi membinosis

518
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 6: or semi tendinosis.

519
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 10: But alsovery short.

520
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 6: He came back in ten ten days from that from

521
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 6: that injury, and so he missed about two weeks with that.

522
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 6: So every time you tear it, and that's at the

523
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 6: mile tendon's junction, meaning where the muscle and the tendon join.

524
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,679
Speaker 6: So when it scars over, it's not going to be

525
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 6: the same you know, muscle that you were you were

526
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 6: born with or created with. It won't be as flexible,

527
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 6: be a little bit more fragile, and more likely to

528
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 6: get retorn or re injured or aggravated again or reoccur,

529
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 6: and so he's at a twenty to thirty percent risk

530
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 6: of this happening again. However, I feel this no Luca's

531
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 6: injury history. He seems to come back from injuries or

532
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 6: seems to play with them. He seems to get them

533
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,439
Speaker 6: a lot as well. But I think he will be ready.

534
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,000
Speaker 6: I mean they might be custos to see if they

535
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 6: win Game one, type of thing I win and play

536
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 6: with it. If he could play, I think he might

537
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 6: go for Game one. They're also in the third seed

538
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 6: and he won't have to play in the playing tournament.

539
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 6: But that's another week off, so I think they have

540
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 6: at least two weeks pushing the three weeks. So I

541
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 6: think it's possible he plays in game one.

542
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 5: I want to be shocked, that's what you just said.

543
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,919
Speaker 4: But you just said that it could happen again and

544
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 4: give him that he's done this. Why would they Why

545
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,199
Speaker 4: would they risk that? I'm dead serious, like, why would you?

546
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,199
Speaker 4: Because why would you risk? You're not what you just

547
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 4: saw your competition in the West, which is okay. See

548
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 4: they can't stay on the court with them, they can't

549
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 4: play with those young guys, So what would be your reasoning?

550
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 4: I'm just asking you, so, why you would rush him

551
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 4: back If he's the face of the franchise. Lebron's gonna

552
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 4: be going next year like this guy he's thirty, he's

553
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 4: twenty six with a thirty six year old body, Why

554
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 4: in the world would the Lakers say let's rush him

555
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 4: back this year?

556
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 5: To face that.

557
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 6: That's a great point. But I feel because it's the Timberwolves,

558
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 6: it's not like a team that they know they could

559
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 6: probably beat without Luca. So I feel like his window

560
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,919
Speaker 6: is now. They even though they got smacked, you know,

561
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,959
Speaker 6: the other day against okay See. And I don't think

562
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 6: it's because of the injury. I feel like he has

563
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,160
Speaker 6: a whole summer to recover from that soft tissue injury.

564
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,160
Speaker 6: So if he could give it a go, knowing his mindset,

565
00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 6: I think he will try to give it a go.

566
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 6: It's the playoffs, Like you know, sometimes people get injured

567
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 6: and say, oh, if this was the playoffs, he would play.

568
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 6: I think it's one of those situations. I don't think

569
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 6: it's it's definitely not. You know, it's not like an

570
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 6: acl tier Achilles tier. It's a hamstring. Those soft tissue injuries,

571
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 6: although they're tricky, you could play with them and it

572
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 6: might reoccur, but it's probably worth it if it means

573
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 6: beating they need them to beat, like a Timbwolves, Deman Nuggets,

574
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 6: or Houston Rockets.

575
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: I think Rob too. To add to it is, once

576
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 2: we finally get the seeding and you kind of know

577
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 2: what's what that maybe and doctor X as well, maybe

578
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 2: you're playing because you say, all right, maybe there's a

579
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 2: chance another team knocks out another team that now, if

580
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 2: we do our part and you win it, you're like,

581
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 2: all right, well that team's eliminated, because that's all about matchups,

582
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 2: and somebody might knock them ver out or somebody might

583
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: knock off the spurs where you're like, oh, shoot, we

584
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 2: might have a shot at this. So I think that's

585
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 2: partly why let me let me go back to this,

586
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 2: Why do you make that guys either are so injury

587
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 2: prone right now when we thought the load management and

588
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 2: taking care of the bodies and so on and so forth,

589
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 2: Because now MVP candidates can't even play sixty five games,

590
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 2: which is not that many to ask, considering there's eighty

591
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 2: two and I'm always till Rob historically MVPs had played

592
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 2: I think it's seventy six of the eighty two games

593
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 2: or more. Why are we got a season where all

594
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 2: of the best players are hurt?

595
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 10: I agree with you.

596
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 6: I think a lot of it has to do with the

597
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 6: usage rate of the best players, but also the pace

598
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 6: of the game, as we know, Like if you look at,

599
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 6: you know, the Indiana Pacers as your example, you could

600
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 6: do a study on the Indiana Pacers. I think they

601
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 6: had at least two players Haliburton obviously, and I think

602
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 6: it was Isaiah Jackson if I'm correct. We had another

603
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 6: Achilles here, and I think there was another player in

604
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 6: their team didn't get much as much minute I think

605
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 6: a minute. I think he was a big But that

606
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 6: team had the highest pace in the league that year,

607
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 6: and they had three Achilles tiers or at least two,

608
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 6: and one of them was in the finals. And so

609
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 6: with that said, I think the bare minimum Adam Silver

610
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 6: should do is at least get rid of back to

611
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 6: backs number one. With all this betting stuff and all

612
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 6: the gaming and stuff, at least it removes the excuse

613
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 6: for a team to say, oh, it's a back to back,

614
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:49,959
Speaker 6: so we can't play. If you at least remove back

615
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 6: to back.

616
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you can't do that the problem is with

617
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 4: the travel. If there are no back to backs the season,

618
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 4: instead of going five months or it's eight months, it's

619
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 4: like six, Like you'd add on so much time.

620
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 5: That's why they have to do it. They've even you know.

621
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 4: I don't think that that sounds logical, but I don't

622
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 4: think it's practical time wise. You know what I mean

623
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 4: that they're not back to backs? You know, like, yeah, now, well, let.

624
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 5: Me ask you this. Steve Kurz has caught out publicly.

625
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 4: And said that a guy who played in eighty two

626
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 4: games when he was a player, now, all of a sudden,

627
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 4: since seventy two, they should drop it to seventy two.

628
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 4: I don't believe that even if they dropped it to

629
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 4: seventy two that that would stop injuries.

630
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 5: I don't believe it.

631
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 4: But what do you think if they were to drop

632
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 4: it from eighty two to seventy two.

633
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 6: I don't think those light tweaks make a difference. I

634
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 6: really do believe is the it's the pace.

635
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 8: Of the game.

636
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 6: Number one. If it goes back all the way to AAU,

637
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 6: these guys are playing way too many games. I mean,

638
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 6: just look at the guy, y'all. Soo Londenborg on if

639
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 6: I'm not sure if that's his last name correct, but

640
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 6: on Michigan. If you look at his story, he started

641
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 6: playing ball so late he doesn't even have that much

642
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 6: mileage on his knees. But here it is, you have

643
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 6: all these a you guys that are just playing so often.

644
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 6: Then they go to the league. Then a lot of

645
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,400
Speaker 6: them have trainers and they're working on all these moves,

646
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 6: and you know, these changes of direction, change of speed

647
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 6: all through the summer, just repetitive, competitive, repetitive like all throughout.

648
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 6: And so now I just think with that said, and

649
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 6: then on top of that, the pace of the game.

650
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 6: You know, they don't even have like a long training

651
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 6: camp anymore. And the precis sure that he jumped right

652
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 6: in to like battle, you know. So I think that's

653
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 6: that's a lot of it.

654
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 2: Hey, doctor X, all on with us right now, the

655
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 2: eye couple on a fucky flash back Friday. I want

656
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 2: to ask you this kind of sticking with that same thing.

657
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 2: Rob knows he's heard me say it a million times.

658
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 2: How much of it do you attribute to man? I

659
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: don't know if you play I'm assuming you played basketball

660
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 2: or sports when you were growing up. Yeah, these guys

661
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 2: play sports, specifically basketball, at a rate that I think

662
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 2: is absurd since they are four or five years old

663
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 2: and they are playing no other sports. They're specialized, which

664
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 2: is a mistake from exactly from four or five years old.

665
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 2: They're playing for their high school team, they're playing for

666
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: travel teams, they're playing for AAU, they're doing trainers, and

667
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 2: I think it's too much, too often, too young on

668
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: their bodies. Am I crazy for thinking that? That's why

669
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 2: we're seeing the Zaions, the Lamelos, the Lonzo's, the Blake Griffins,

670
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 2: all these massive number one picks that could never stay

671
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 2: healthy because I think they've been playing too much ball

672
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 2: since they were five.

673
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 6: You know, that's absolutely correct. And the names you just

674
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 6: name were the best in their team. So you have

675
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 6: everybody that's clamoring for their for their time and for

676
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 6: their attention. And on top of that, you can't even

677
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 6: look over the ladies. The ladies are actually more prone

678
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 6: to soft tissue injuries for several reasons. I think some

679
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 6: of it has to do with their their you know,

680
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 6: different harmone makeups why they are more prone to injuries.

681
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 6: So there's a lot of you know, sometimes I get

682
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 6: some of my friends free MRIs and things like that. Hey,

683
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 6: if you guys ever need an m right, look me up.

684
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 6: I got you covered. But you know, I'm in the

685
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 6: LA area as well. But you know, they get a

686
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 6: lot of soft tissue injuries. Volleyball, basketball, they're there, they're

687
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 6: playing way more than we did growing up, and because

688
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 6: of that, you know, it's just it's just the you know,

689
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 6: it's just the way it is with the amount of

690
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 6: times that they play, so you can only play so much.

691
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 6: So it's the wear and tear.

692
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 5: Doc, I might have to look you up.

693
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 4: I might need a couple of things, Sony bacon, chest

694
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 4: X ray and dec coffee.

695
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 5: Just those are the things. Those are my we gave meal.

723
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,920
Speaker 2: he had to say about he said, soft tissue. Lucas

724
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,919
Speaker 2: done this before. He said, maybe give him two weeks

725
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 2: he could be ready for the first round. I thought

726
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 2: it was gonna be a little bit more dire than that.

727
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,080

747
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 2: the end of the day, especially with the odds makers

748
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 2: and favorites and all that. Right now, it might end

749
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 2: up just being and the voters might just be picking

750
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: Sga again.

751
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, at the end of the day, all of this

752
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 7: debate we've been having about the fearsome forsome, not counting

753
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 7: Kadi Jalen Brown's Oh is it gonna be Lucas, They're

754
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 7: gonna be Yok' is it gonna be Wemby? Well, ESPN

755
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 7: does this straw Pole three times a year and they

756
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 7: pull people who will legitimately vote for this award. This

757
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,360
Speaker 7: is not Hey, yeah, let me get this guy's opinion.

758
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 7: Let me talk to Steven A, let me talk to Kelvin,

759
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 7: let me talk to Rob. I know these are all

760
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 7: voters that they that they straw poll.

761
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 2: On this one.

762
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 7: So it's historically very very accurate. And in the final

763
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 7: straw Pole the season, eighty eight people out of one

764
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 7: hundred have SGA winning the MVP. It would be his

765
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 7: second consecutive MVP. And it turns out all this debate

766
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 7: has been much to do about nothing.

767
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, listen, uh, I think Wemby had a

768
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 2: case and again I've mentioned if he were to somehow

769
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 2: pull off the number one seed in the West. Maybe

770
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 2: he would get a chance to get some more votes.

771
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 2: But I mean, Rob and I've talked about it, SGA,

772
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 2: He's been the model of consistency. I know some people

773
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 2: have issues.

774
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 4: I said this to you yesterday, I said, what has

775
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 4: he done not to win? Like this team has the

776
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 4: best where I could put up unbelievable numbers. I never

777
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 4: thought for a minute, and they said to landslide the

778
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:02,280
Speaker 4: Luca to late Luca.

779
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:03,840
Speaker 5: I told you I wasn't buying it.

780
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think for me with him is it's a

781
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 2: credit to how consistent that almost becomes boring because he's

782
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 2: just thirty two points a night, fifty plus percent field

783
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 2: goal percentage, and plays really very good defense on a

784
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 2: great defensive team. And I think sometimes again you almost

785
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 2: can take that for granted. But it was his to lose,

786
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 2: So I think, what did he do? As you mentioned, Rob,

787
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 2: they were the number one team last year, they win

788
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 2: the championship, they're the number one seed, they're they're blowing

789
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,319
Speaker 2: people out. And to his credit to he did this

790
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 2: with j Dove, their second best player missing mid thirties.

791
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 2: I think thirty four to thirty five games.

792
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 5: And could I say this too last night?

793
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 4: You don't think the idea that the Lakers were the

794
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 4: hottest team in the last month or so, they come

795
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 4: in and get their bus kick, even before the injury

796
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:52,240
Speaker 4: to Luca.

797
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 5: Right, Oh yeah, Like if you're a voter there, I

798
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 5: think that what's right?

799
00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 2: That might have been a stamp.

800
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 4: Seriously, No, really, that because statement right there. If they

801
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 4: play with the hottest team going yep.

802
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 2: And even if the thunder win Beers, I think we

803
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:07,399
Speaker 2: all think they're a better team than the Lager. Let's

804
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,760
Speaker 2: say they won by eight or ten, but Luca drops

805
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 2: forty eight, eight and eight and SGA to thirty two,

806
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 2: that still would have been one of them. Man, Luca

807
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 2: is going crazy. Luca was not looking good well before

808
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 2: the injury. SGA was playing SGA basketball, and so I

809
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 2: think that was one of those moments of him saying no, no, no,

810
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,240
Speaker 2: hold on, hold on, Not only are we the best team,

811
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,239
Speaker 2: I'm still in his mind the best player. Obviously some

812
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 2: people might say joker, but in his mind, I'm still

813
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,000
Speaker 2: the best player, and give me my MVP. I know

814
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 2: he doesn't like to talk about it, but uh, yeah,

815
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 2: that was a statement game. I think both for the

816
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 2: Thunder and SGA winby I'm sure might still a voter

817
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 2: to it again if they if how they finished the

818
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 2: last four or five games, if they, you know, something,

819
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,279
Speaker 2: he does some more incredible stuff, goes another forty one

820
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 2: point game again maybe, But SGA, to his credit, man

821
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 2: been a model of consistency. See the last handful of years.

822
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 2: I think it's now robbed four years of thirty one

823
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 2: points a game or more. Uh, he's been. He's just been.

824
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 2: He's been great. So there's no denying that without a doubt.

825
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,840
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to the playoffs man, because the Thunder

826
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 2: they're gonna be hard to beat.

827
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 5: And I wonder if I don't think they're impossible to

828
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 5: beat them.

829
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 4: I mean again, they won last year, and they had

830
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 4: two seven game series that could have gone either way.

831
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 5: So I don't. I don't think it's a layup that

832
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 5: they're winning. I really don't.

833
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 2: All Right, Well, President Trump has something to say about

834
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:28,240
Speaker 2: sports
