When you know at Chavez at the Ravine, 22 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: all the New Yorkers come out and it's just a 23 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 2: great crowd. Best part is two more games against the Mets. 24 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 2: But the grin, I'm I wish I had the You 25 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: know what eating grin uh Sam does is that how 26 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 2: Jason Sewart has been walking around all day kind of 27 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 2: that cat they ate the canary look. 28 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 3: I looked over him and he had sort of a 29 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 3: weird facial expression. Yeah, for the most part, We'll say, 30 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: I might be your gas. Yeah, yes, he's been grinning. 31 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 4: Yes, I mean two guys, Max Mounsey, as we previously discussed, Yeah. 32 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: You are single handedly responsible for his research. 33 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 4: He's exercised his demon and then last night was the 34 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 4: night that Tanner Scott exercised his demon. And by exercise demon, 35 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 4: I mean he actually got a couple outs because he 36 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 4: hasn't been able to do that. He's not a closer, 37 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 4: Remember Andrew Friedman. He thinks he's smarter than you, so 38 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 4: he's never going to tell you that he has a closer. 39 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 4: He's going to be the first GM to win without 40 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 4: a closer. But he paid Tanner Scott like a closer 41 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 4: and Tanner. Scott has been just dreadful. So yeah, he 42 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 4: got the win last night or the save. I don't 43 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 4: know Tanner picked it up. But could we pay off 44 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 4: a tease before we get into the midway? Yeah, So 45 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 4: the group text is Isaac, Sam, Doug and me. Before 46 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 4: the show, I threw out the idea for the midway. 47 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 4: Now I'm going to ask you, Doug, just give me 48 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 4: your honest answer. Don't google it, don't look it up. 49 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 4: And Sam, you can't. You can't taint these waters here. 50 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 4: Do you know what a nos feruto is? 51 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: No, no idea. 52 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 3: Let's say correctly, Isaac. Okay, well we have to say 53 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 3: it correctly. You're misleading. It's no sparatu. Do you know 54 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 3: what no s feratu is, Isaac? 55 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 5: He is a backup defenseman on the Florida Panthers. No, 56 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 5: I don't. Okay, so that makes over three no clue. 57 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: I had never heard of the term no no, I 58 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 3: had no idea. 59 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 4: What that is? 60 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 5: Not one of these things that you don't know about, 61 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 5: but you kind of have clues as to what it 62 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 5: could be referred to. I was completely lost. 63 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 4: I just thought it was that part in a group 64 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 4: discussion where Sam meant to send it to a different 65 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 4: group text, so you just ignore it. But I threw 66 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 4: out the idea from midway. It goes like this, Uh, well, 67 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 4: the NBA ever created finals that mirrors the Super Bowl, 68 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 4: as per Adam Silver saying this on breakfast Ball today, 69 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: and Sam goes to the group text and says, no Sperrutu, 70 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 4: No Sfaratu appears in the sunlight. 71 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: So what what? What are things that appear in the 72 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 3: sunlight that usually don't nocturnal animals? Vampires? Vampires? There you go, 73 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 3: and No Sparatu is a vampire. It goes back about 74 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 3: one hundred years the original No. S Faratu movie. And 75 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 3: I was making a joke about Adam Silver's appearance, maybe 76 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: a crass one, but oh for three guys, Oh boy, 77 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 3: we got Mike coming in.

And no, 94 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 3: I mean Adam Silver might might not appear in the 95 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 3: sun very often. He might be a vampire, or he 96 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 3: might just look like No Saratu. 97 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 5: That reference sailed over me as if I was the 98 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 5: uprights on a Cameron Dicker field goal attempt. 99 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 3: All right, it was lost on you, guys.

So Doug sent Emperor Palpatine, which I don't 104 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 3: mind that. But Adam Silver is not wrinkly like Palpatine, 105 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 3: and you can't see the top of Palpatine's head, so 106 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 3: I would say No Feratu gets a slight nod. 107 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 4: So not only did he did he he declined to 108 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 4: apologize for making a joke that's doubled down.

What's the topic today? 189 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 4: Jay Stew Adam Silver two people in the world refer 190 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 4: to him as knows Faratu said this on Breakfast Ball. 191 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 8: That's one thing I really admire about the NFL. I mean, 192 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,199 Speaker 8: if if we were going into a Super Bowl and 193 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 8: it was Packers against Steelers, you guys would be celebrating that. 194 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 8: Nobody would Those would be storied franchises. People wouldn't be 195 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 8: talking about markets. You know the fact that Pittsburgh is 196 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 8: a small market. So we in fact, you know, I'm 197 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 8: happy whatever team ends up in the final. But it's 198 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 8: been intentional from our standpoint to create a system, a 199 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 8: collective bargaining agreement that allows more teams to compete. And 200 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 8: just by way of background, you know, we're going to 201 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 8: have to go through a process of getting to the 202 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 8: point where people are accustomed to tuning into the finals 203 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 8: because the two teams that deserve to be there and 204 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 8: it's the best basketball. Similar to again with the super Bowl. 205 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 8: If I asked somebody they were going to watch the 206 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 8: super Bowl, they wouldn't say who's playing. It's a national 207 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 8: holiday and now that's nirvana. 208 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 4: You know. 209 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm not saying we're anywhere close to that yet. 210 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 8: There's still if the Knicks are in the finals, there's 211 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 8: a segment of our fan base that's going to watch 212 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 8: that may not watch if it's other teams. But my 213 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 8: job is to get people to love and follow this 214 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 8: game and so that if you're a huge basketball fan, 215 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 8: you should want to tune into the finals because that's 216 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 8: the best basketball. 217 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 2: That part is fair. That part is fair, and I 218 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 2: thought the unfair part, or the of twos part is 219 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: the well small markets its Green Bay and Pittsburgh, like 220 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 2: those are two of their greatest historical franchises in the 221 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 2: history of the sport. Oh yeah, by the way, the 222 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: thunder have been around for less than twenty years and 223 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 2: the Pacers were an ABA team, So it's just not 224 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 2: the same comparison. But I do love how he's ambitious 225 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: and trying to trying to adjust to the sports fan 226 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: of today, which is is definitely needed, definitely needed. 227 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 4: So your answer is, no, the NBA Finals could never 228 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 4: become another super Bowl. 229 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 2: No, No, I think it's in the summer. It's it's 230 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 2: in the summer at seven games, yep, it's. 231 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 3: Not a single day. No, it's not on a Sunday, 232 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: although a game might fall on a Sunday. 233 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I I there was a world there where 234 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 2: Kobe and Lebron never matched up in the finals. 235 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 5: Just take over your body for a second there. 236 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. 237 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: No, I just had a yawn and I'm not tie. 238 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: I apologize. Jase Stu got on me. If you're yawning previously, 239 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm awake. 240 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 3: You just got the green light to do a Lou 241 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 3: Holtz impression. 242 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 5: Hey, you know, I'm sorry, guys a. 243 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, but you did you know you take mating 244 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: Cuber Bolt. You need to talk about Notre Dame. 245 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 4: And I'll just quote somebody that we all are very 246 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 4: intimately aware of. My man, if you're follow to sleep 247 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 4: on the year, your listeners sure. 248 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 5: Are no he was into holes. Hey though, here's what 249 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 5: what you actually kind of triggered my thought for comparison, 250 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 5: triggered in a good way for comparison purposes. What previous 251 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 5: NBA Finals matchup came closest to that sort of aspirations? 252 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 5: The bingo, That's exactly where I was going. That kind 253 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 5: of captured the imagination of the nation for a two 254 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 5: week span, and that's exactly what I thought. Celtics Lakers, 255 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,599 Speaker 5: Bulls Lakers in ninety one, and to this day, the 256 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 5: highest rated NBA Finals matchup involved the team from Utah. 257 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 5: It was Game six of the Bulls Utah Jazz Series 258 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 5: in nineteen ninety eight. What it was thirty three point 259 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,319 Speaker 5: one million viewers I think for that one. 260 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 2: So what of those that was based on Georgian of course? 261 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 5: And the last dance, sure. 262 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: Well not it wasn't the last dance of the time. 263 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 6: Oh no, it was. 264 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 8: It was. 265 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 5: They knew it was the last dance at the time, 266 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 5: or at the very least it was most likely the last. 267 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: Dance, most likely. But you know, I don't I don't 268 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 2: remember tuning into that Finals going like this is the 269 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 2: last time I'm going to see Jo you know again? 270 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 2: Most people thought it was likely, but we didn't know. 271 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,839 Speaker 5: So what parameters would be needed to give the best 272 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 5: possible shot of the NBA rivaling the Super Bowl hype? 273 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 5: It would be a great compelling superstar on each team, 274 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 5: a great compelling story you haven't won it in fifty years, 275 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 5: like the Knicks, a raucous home crowd. Maybe that's maybe 276 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 5: that's not as important, but you're looking at You're looking 277 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 5: at basically two things, superstars and storylines. 278 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 4: I just think I think it's a complete fools errand 279 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 4: to ever, if you're a commissioner of a sport, compare 280 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 4: yourself to the NFL. The way the NFL resonates with 281 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 4: Americans will never be matched. And if I think it 282 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 4: was foolish to him to go to the comparison, because 283 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 4: now talk radio is making the comparison, and I would 284 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 4: say ten out of ten talk radio hosts and analysts 285 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 4: are saying it'll never become the super Bowl. People love 286 00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 4: gambling on football, wives love sitting with their husband watching football. 287 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 4: They're just are there are little things that this intangible, 288 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 4: things that will never be able to grasp for why 289 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 4: this sport is so popular and the NBA is woefully 290 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 4: in second place and that. 291 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 5: And would you guys feel that perhaps you could even 292 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 5: make the argument that NBA All Star Weekend is a 293 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 5: closer super Bowl esque vibe than the NBA Finals are, 294 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 5: not in terms of TV ratings, but as a destination, 295 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 5: almost like an event, a convention and an event. 296 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know if this has been brought up yet. 297 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 3: I apologize if it has. But also Adam Silver talked 298 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 3: about quote unquote small markets like Pittsburgh and Green Bay. Uh, 299 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 3: those two franchises in the NFL have a combined like 300 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 3: how many championships between them? And so that, oh you did, 301 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 3: I must have been cixated on a commissioner knows, Farata. 302 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 4: We'll clean it up and edit. 303 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 7: I was. 304 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 2: I wasn't the one who was sleeping. 305 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 4: I was. 306 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 3: I wasn't sleeping. 307 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 9: I was. 308 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: I was so. 309 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 4: And Adam sober he's been. 310 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna hey, listen, I'll do a quick man cope 311 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 2: on nos Fatu.

It was everything and 334 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 2: every game for those two years, oh yeah, was everything. 335 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 2: So you can absolutely have that type of It'll never 336 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 2: be the corporate thing because it's you know, the weekend set. 337 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 2: What a blah blah blah blah. But you can be gigantic, 338 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 2: but we never got Kobe and Lebron. That would have 339 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 2: been this generation's. 340 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 5: Jordan Bird now magic Bird too, Yeah, I mean Magic Bird. 341 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 2: And we also, you know, we also don't have college 342 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 2: rivalries in basketball anymore because nobody stays long enough in 343 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:23,959 Speaker 2: college and the European players are are leaving. So if 344 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 2: you had you did have Lebron and Steph and KD 345 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 2: multiple years in a row, that was as close as 346 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 2: you would have gotten. But I think it's never going 347 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 2: to happen, at least in the very near future. 348 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 5: Okay, Doug. For comparison purposes, Oh all right. 349 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 2: No, you can comparison. Go ahead, We'll happen one. 350 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, real quick. For comparison purposes, Let's say that from 351 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 5: a basketball standpoint, this year's NBA Finals is superb go 352 00:18:54,880 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 5: seven games, great individual performances, buzzer beaters. Will that help 353 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 5: make it respectable in the ratings? Or is the riding 354 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 5: already on the wall. Because I'll go back to this 355 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 5: nineteen ninety one World Series, the Twins and Braves to 356 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 5: at least one, you know, relatively mid or small market team, 357 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 5: not a lot of super duper stars, although they were stars, 358 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 5: but they had the best top one of the best 359 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 5: top to bottom seven game world series ever wound up 360 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 5: averaging thirty five million viewers. If this year's NBA Finals 361 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:34,159 Speaker 5: from a basketball standpoint, completely sells out in terms of 362 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 5: excitement and individual performances and goes seven, will that make 363 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 5: a difference in the ratings nationally or has that basically 364 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 5: already been set. 365 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 2: I think it's already to be set. 366 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 5: Me too, I think it's already to be set. 367 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 2: And that is the midway, the midword. 368 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 6: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 369 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 6: the nation.

Uh, there's 377 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 2: this weird situation in Seattle where, uh, Mike McDonald's the 378 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 2: head coach of the Seahawks, and he was asked if 379 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 2: there's a situation that exists where Sam Donald is not 380 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 2: the starting quarterback at the beginning of the season that 381 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: would lead to a different quarterback. 382 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 9: You guys are crazy. 383 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: There's no way to ask the question with it. It 384 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: sounded like an I. 385 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 9: Respect you got to ask it, but like there's you guys, 386 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 9: it's just a crazy question. There's just not gonna like 387 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 9: Sam's are starting quarterback. We love him, He's doing a 388 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 9: tremendous job. God forbid, you know you're you're the worst 389 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 9: player of all time because you made one bad throw 390 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 9: or one bad decisions Like that is not what we're 391 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 9: trying to build. We want these guys to go prepare 392 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 9: the right way and then I go out on the 393 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 9: practice field, go freaking let it rip, and then we'll 394 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 9: go fix it. We'll go we got time, it's June third, 395 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 9: We'll go, Okay, they're gonna get plenty of reps. We'll 396 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 9: get those things fixed. I mean, Sam made a grill up, 397 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 9: bought a lot of great throws. Yesterday, he's gashing us 398 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 9: on third and goal to start the start the start 399 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 9: the day out too. So yeah, that was kind of 400 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 9: a crazy question. 401 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, So there's this thing, and what I don't like 402 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 2: about McDonald is that he's saying eight Milroe's gonna play 403 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: probably ten percent of the snaps special packages, and obviously 404 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: that's to have him run and you don't want Sam 405 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 2: Donald to get beat up. But I don't know saying 406 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 2: that this early in the preseason. You know, I get 407 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 2: what he's saying. He's just being honest that Sam Donald 408 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: can have a bad day and he's still gonna be 409 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: which I guess he did no ta's and he'll be 410 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 2: the starting quarterback. Yeah, I agree with that. I don't 411 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 2: know if i'd want to admit that ten percent of 412 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 2: the snaps are going to go to a rookie because 413 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: you have special packages. Let's welcome in. Daniel Jeremiah DJ, 414 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 2: of courseworks for the NFL Network. He hosts To Move 415 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 2: the Six podcast. He is the lead analyst for the 416 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 2: NFL Network's coverage of the NFL Draft. He joins us 417 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 2: in the Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox Supports Radio. What 418 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 2: do you think of Donald's fit in Seattle? 419 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 7: Well, first of all, I think that was that was 420 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 7: Mike Salk. Wasn't that with the question with him and 421 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 7: Brock up there in Seattle. Yes, I can't wait to 422 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 7: bust his shops for listening such a reaction from coach. 423 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 7: But that was interesting. I mean, I think coming out 424 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 7: in saying you know that you're going to you know, 425 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 7: you want to devote a certain percentage of snaps to 426 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 7: a quarterback than Sam Donald, That would, you know, warrant 427 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 7: warrant some scrutiny. But you know, I don't have a 428 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 7: problem with him going overboard in his defense of Sam 429 00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 7: and how you know he viewed that situation because you 430 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 7: know what they paid him, they believe in him, They're 431 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 7: going to back him all those things. I do think 432 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 7: it's a good fit up there. I'm curious to see, 433 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 7: you know, what this offensive line looks like. Can they 434 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 7: keep their tackles healthy? You know, Sam had the luxury 435 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 7: of playing had a pretty good group there, you know 436 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 7: with the Minnesota Vikings. So can they keep those tackles healthy? 437 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,239 Speaker 7: To the interior? Does it get better than it's been 438 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 7: the last few years? And then the bigger question for me, 439 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 7: maybe more so than Sam, is just they've got some 440 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 7: kind of duplications at wide receiver. You know, how do 441 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 7: those guys work together? JSN Cooper Cup. They kind of 442 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 7: similar skill set, similar play styles, So how are they 443 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 7: going to set the whole thing up would be a 444 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 7: little bit something I'm looking forward to figuring out. But 445 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 7: I think Sam, what we saw last year Doug, I 446 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 7: thought that kind of showed he's going to be a 447 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 7: top fifteen, top you know, worst case scenario is a 448 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 7: top twenty quarterback. 449 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know you and I'm sued. Cal 450 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 2: heard the same. We love us some, Sam Donald and 451 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 2: finally adopt to until last two games lived up to 452 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 2: that that that billing. Trayvon Diggs is choosing to rehab 453 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 2: on his own, He's going to miss out on half 454 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 2: a million dollars potentially, Like where are we in this 455 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 2: in this era? You know, in years in the past, 456 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 2: you know you have your own rehab guy. It's fine, 457 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 2: but now teams, sports medicine, teams are so advanced. I 458 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 2: don't know. I can't figure out Tripon Diggs and why 459 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 2: he would want to give away half a million dollars 460 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 2: just to rehab on his own. 461 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 7: Got to be a heck of a rehab guy that 462 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 7: he's got before go that much money. Yeah, I don't 463 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 7: know that there's and I've you know, when you're around 464 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 7: teams that work for a lot of different teams and 465 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 7: been around, you know, there's certain guys who just they 466 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 7: they're not trusting people and they don't trust that the 467 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 7: folks that are working with them on the rehab front 468 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 7: are the are the best available, and so they don't 469 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 7: they don't want to use them. To me, it's there's 470 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 7: no excuse, you know, for if you're a team to 471 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 7: not have first class rehab set up. And the ones 472 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 7: that I've been around, for the most part, I've been 473 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 7: completely impressed with how they handle these situations. But I 474 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 7: just know there's some guys and I think it might 475 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 7: be more than just a football situation, and I'm not 476 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 7: you know, I don't want to say this specifically about Diggs, 477 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 7: but when you've scouted and talked to a lot of players, 478 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 7: and you've talked to a lot of players and met 479 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 7: a lot of players, and as a coach, you know 480 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 7: there's some guys who have trust issues. They just don't 481 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 7: trust people. 482 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 2: Yep, yep, that's very true. The Texans say they're not demko. 483 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: Ryan says he's not concerned about shoulder issues, that the 484 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:37,920 Speaker 2: that this quarterback has should he be. 485 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 7: Anytime you hear anything that's associated with the arm of 486 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 7: a quarterback, I'm going to be concerned and worried. And 487 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 7: the only thing that would alleviate that concern is if 488 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 7: you have, you know, the unequivocal support and kind of 489 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 7: pushback on this being anything at all. And I haven't 490 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 7: heard that yet, So there's been acknowledgment that something's going 491 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 7: on there. So yeah, I don't. I know they always say, right, 492 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 7: there's no such thing as minor growing surgery. I don't 493 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 7: think there's such thing as a minor arm injury with 494 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 7: a quarterback, right, I. 495 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 2: Mean that one freaks me out. What what was so 496 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 2: wrong for him last year? Why did I mean, why 497 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 2: do you regress? I don't think there's any of Yeah. 498 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 7: I mean, they were terrible up front, and I've never 499 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,719 Speaker 7: seen an offensive line that was worse picking up games 500 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 7: than they were last year. Where they're not they're not 501 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 7: setting extra guys. So when you're getting home with four 502 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 7: and five rushers simple games and you're getting clean run throughs, 503 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 7: I mean there's a reason they completely overhauled the offensive line, 504 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 7: including getting rid of a talented player at TUNSL so 505 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 7: I put the majority of the blame there. You have 506 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 7: some injuries, you know, Nico Collins not being out there 507 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 7: the whole year. Tankdale gets hurt obviously, then you know 508 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 7: they had hoped that Digs would would be that guy 509 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 7: for him. He got hurt. So there was a lot 510 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 7: of factors there that I would put above CJ regressing. 511 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 7: But I think all those things kind of to him 512 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 7: not being quite as quite as confident and not as 513 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 7: productive as he was the year before. But Doug, I 514 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 7: was in the building, and I know you watched the 515 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 7: games in the playoffs against the Charters where he just 516 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 7: absolutely shreded him, So I know he's got all the 517 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 7: ability he needs. 518 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 2: He does. It is weird, and I agree with you 519 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: on the offensive line having watched him in person in 520 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 2: a great game against the Packers, to say that was 521 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 2: a huge part. I mean, he was under duress all 522 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 2: day and they knew it. They came after him, really 523 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 2: really came after him. What about Jordan Love, You know, 524 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 2: he was a little defensive when he was asked about 525 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: a season which he regrets, is like, we won more 526 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 2: might through more touchdown passes, but interception numbers were high 527 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 2: smart despite fewer starts. How convinced. Are you that Jordan 528 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 2: Love long term is the guy in Green Bay? 529 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 7: Well, I think that you look at what they did 530 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 7: in the offseason. They recognized they needed some more explosive 531 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 7: and dynamic players. And to me, this will be a 532 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 7: great year to evalue Jordan Love because that you know, 533 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,479 Speaker 7: you get a guy in the lineup. Okay, we can 534 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 7: build the offense around. Let's start that, we kind of 535 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 7: figure out how to call plays and what he's comfortable with, 536 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:11,199 Speaker 7: what he's good at. So, okay, we're there. We're at 537 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 7: that point, you know, after that first year, then you go, okay, 538 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 7: now we've had a chance to see the players around 539 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 7: him skill set wise, you know what can take this 540 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 7: to the next level, And you know, you go out 541 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 7: and do what they did in the draft with Matthew 542 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 7: Golden finally taking a receiver and taking one who's the 543 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 7: fastest one in the draft. You go out to get 544 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 7: staved On Williams in the third round, who's you know, 545 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 7: a freak athlete. They're trying to add some explosiveness to 546 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 7: a group of receivers that's been solid, not spectacular. They 547 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 7: go out and get Aaron Banks and free agencies. So 548 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,239 Speaker 7: to me, I think the evaluation on him, I think 549 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 7: that's going to come after this upcoming season. I think 550 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 7: all all of the questions will be answered positively or negatively, 551 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 7: after we see what this looks like. 552 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 2: The Again, I'm trying with the tea leaves here. Okay, 553 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 2: Arthur Smith loves Jonas Smith. Johnny Smith played for him 554 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: in Tennessee, trying to get him in from Miami. Right understood, Right, coach, 555 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 2: Guys that you've had success with is is and they're 556 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 2: loading up on tight ends. Right, they got they got 557 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 2: part of him as well, right, big, Yeah, they got. 558 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 2: They got a bunch of bunch of dudes. Again reading 559 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 2: the tea leaves, does this fit with Aaron Rodgers? 560 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 7: I guess. I mean you're trying to find somebody who 561 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 7: can work in the middle of the field and win 562 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 7: some mismatches. I mean, he's he's a more talented version 563 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 7: of you know, of Conklin, who he had just with 564 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 7: the Jets this this last year. Someone who kind of 565 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 7: fit match with him. I don't know. I don't know 566 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 7: that this is like a just a textbook Aaron Rodgers 567 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 7: type player, but uh, you know, to me, it's someone 568 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 7: who provides easy completions in the middle of the field, 569 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 7: and Aaron Rodgers wants to get the ball out quick 570 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 7: and they want to preserve him. You know, I can, 571 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 7: I can get it. From that standpoint. It's kind of 572 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 7: a little bit of a mismatch Hodge Odge group of 573 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 7: guys they have there. I mean, Friarmouth kind of is 574 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 7: kind of do everything, tight end, but not really great 575 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 7: in any one area. Washington's an unbelievable blocker. He's like 576 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 7: playing with an extra tackle out there. And then you 577 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 7: mentioned Parham. I mean, he hasn't really been able to 578 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 7: stay healthy, but he's kind of just a red zone guy. 579 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 7: So they give him a little different It would give 580 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 7: him a little different skill set than they have in 581 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 7: that room. Even though that's that's three guys we just mentioned, uh. 582 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 2: Those are I mean, there's just a lot of dudes. 583 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 2: There's just a lot of a lot of a lot 584 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 2: of numbers there. Kirk Cousins, if if Aaron doesn't happen 585 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, Okay, that makes sense. What else makes sense 586 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 2: for Kirk Cousins. 587 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 7: I know I've I've always talked about him throughout this 588 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 7: entire process and said, okay, like what what makes the 589 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 7: most sense for him, what makes the most sense for 590 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 7: the team. And I know that Minnesota went out and 591 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 7: uh and brought in Sam Howell. But to me, the 592 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 7: ultimate JJ McCarthy insurance would be Kirk Cousins. You know, 593 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 7: especially if you negotiate around some of the money and 594 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 7: you're not having to pay him a ton. He comes 595 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 7: in there with the understanding he can back up JJ 596 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 7: knowing if JJ were to get hurt or if JJ 597 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 7: is not performing well. I don't know. I mean with 598 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 7: the team that they have Doug that's ready to win 599 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 7: right now, as loaded as they are, I mean, do 600 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 7: you want to at what point time you get to 601 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 7: week six, you know, week seven and you're like, you know, JJ, 602 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 7: maybe this is maybe he's not ready yet. You hope 603 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 7: he is, but I don't know that you want to 604 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 7: lose a year in this window with the talent that 605 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 7: they have in their prime right now ready to roll. 606 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 7: And I think Kirk Cousins would give you a little 607 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 7: bit of that insurance. 608 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you. I wonder what he has 609 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 2: left because it was so bad. It was awful. 610 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 7: I saw it in person. It was awful last year. 611 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 7: And I know, you know, if you want to defend it. 612 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 7: And you can say, you know, no shotgun, it's not 613 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 7: his offense and you're not fully recovered. And I can 614 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 7: see that, but man, when you saw it in person. 615 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 2: It was it was rough from what respect. I mean again, 616 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: I talked to Zach and it just died. 617 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 7: The ball was just said, it just died out of 618 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 7: his hand. It just floaded. He couldn't drive the ball. 619 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. Zach's exact commons Zach Robinson is oc. His exact 620 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 2: commons to me were like, I don't know what happened. 621 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 2: It was like overnight, all of a sudden, something happened 622 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: to his arm. Because I've never seen anything like it. 623 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I know everybody says, you know, you throw 624 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 7: at your legs. You know, it's it's where you get 625 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 7: your that's your force. You know, you get your feet 626 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 7: into the ground, and that's where you con generate your power. 627 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 7: You drive the ball, and it just I mean maybe 628 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 7: that's the injury and the Achilles and all that, but 629 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 7: he did not have enough arm to make up for it. 630 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 2: No, No, DJ, you're the best man.

But one 681 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,840 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty eight million dollars meet in the theaters like, 682 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 2: that's solid stuff. We are in this particular case, it 683 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 2: had to be explained to us because we don't know 684 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 2: anything about that genre and. 685 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 5: We're just so much cooler than anybody who does. But anyway, 686 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 5: Commissioner Adam Silver confirmed today the next season's All Star 687 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 5: Game will shift to a USA Versus the World matchup listen. 688 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 8: Next year as part of our new media deals. The 689 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 8: All Star Game returns to NBC, where it was when 690 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 8: we were younger, and it so happens that next season 691 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 8: will be smack in the middle of the Winter Olympics. 692 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 8: Some fact that the game will be on NBC and 693 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 8: the very day we're on they'll be the lead in 694 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,320 Speaker 8: will be Winter Olympic events, and then coming out of 695 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 8: the All Star Game, which is not going to be 696 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 8: in the afternoons stad of the evening, there'll be more 697 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 8: Olympic events. So what better time to feature some form 698 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 8: of USA against the World. I'm not exactly sure what 699 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 8: the format will be yet, I mean, obviously paid a 700 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 8: lot of attention to what the NHL did. But also 701 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 8: you know, going back, you know last summer, our Olympic 702 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 8: competition was a huge success. 703 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 2: It was, but here's the difference. They cared about winning. 704 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 2: They cared about winning, and you're going to turn on 705 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 2: the Olympics, granted the Winter Olympics, come on, like that's 706 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 2: outside of hurius. 707 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 4: Right, he thinks it's a format. He thinks it's a 708 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 4: format thing. Still, it's about an effort thing, right. 709 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,240 Speaker 5: Yes, so the score is going to be one seventy 710 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 5: two to one sixty four. 711 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't I don't think. I don't think he 712 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 2: thinks it's a format thing. I just think that's how 713 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 2: they want to market it. They that this is this 714 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 2: is the problem with gen Z. I'm gonna sound like 715 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 2: Jason Stewart. I can't do a j Sue impression, but 716 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 2: Jay Stu says it all the time. Right, They this 717 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 2: generation doesn't want to be told it's not good enough. 718 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 2: What they're doing is not good enough. A psychologists have 719 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 2: gotten all these people blind out. Well you can't say 720 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 2: it's not good enough, but whatever, Like, yes you can, 721 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 2: that's not good enough. You want me to spend time 722 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 2: and watch your two and a half hour game and 723 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 2: you don't. You clearly don't care about anything other than 724 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 2: dunking or a wide open three.
