The start. 22 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, the way you roll it through the Lakers being 23 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: in the early window weird. You know a lot of 24 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: people here in Los Angeles like we're the Lakers, Like, no, 25 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: you're the seventh seed. You still have Lebron and a 26 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: D but you're the seventh seed. And if that can 27 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: get people in for the day of activity, guess what 28 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: you need to draw on the front end, and you 29 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: need to draw on the back end. You got you 30 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: gotta have that sandwich, right, You need the bonds to 31 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: hold things together. 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: And they at least I mean, if you want to 33 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 2: talk about stature, they got the National TV window game 34 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 2: and you know they got the ABC game. The other 35 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: ones will be on TNT tonight. But so like there's 36 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 2: at least that going for them. If the Lakers fans 37 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 2: have a bruised ego because of what time they play, 38 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: at least they're gonna be on network television when they 39 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: tip it off off today against Memphis. Although I don't 40 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 2: know if they're going to want people to see what 41 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: could happen to them today on. 42 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: That We'll look at you. Are you going against the grain, 43 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: because right now the trendy pick for popular people is 44 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: Lakers Lakers late. 45 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: Yes, I think I think today is going to be 46 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 2: tough for them. 47 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: Yep, that the Grizz live up to their bites. 48 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to be a day that 49 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: they'll want to look back on and be like that 50 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,799 Speaker 2: was a good day. I'm not saying the series is 51 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: over by any means, but I think it's going to 52 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 2: be very difficult today, a rough one for the Lakers. 53 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: Big, big slate of action.

The day one gave us a couple of gems, 67 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: hotly contested games, and that game in Sacramento, Kings and 68 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: the Warriors put on a show. Di' aaron Fox as 69 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 1: they let me know if it was a drinking game. 70 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: I was under the table before we got to the 71 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: second quarter. Did you know it was d'arron Fox's first 72 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: playoff game? Did you know that? My goodness, the old 73 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: line of you're beating a dead horse. Uh, we didn't 74 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: even get to the second quarter. And it's like, all right, 75 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: we get it. He's having a fun run, a great performance, 76 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: and it's his first playoff game. It's our first basketball game. 77 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: And these guys don't play defense. 78 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: I kid you not. I kid you not. I watched 79 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: ninety six percent of the game. I mute and on 80 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 2: my phone because that's a good yes, because he was 81 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 2: me and the little guy hanging out for most of 82 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: the night, and so when he was it's it's not 83 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: that you can't well, it is you can't change the channel. 84 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 2: It's not that he's watching two and a half hours 85 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 2: of whatever's on Nickelodeon or Disney or Miss Rachel or whatever. 86 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: It's the fact, Mike of that you if you change 87 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 2: the channel to something that you want when he's doing 88 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 2: everything else, is that's what may bother him. So I 89 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: did not get to hear everything, but I was watching everything, 90 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 2: and I did see stats pop up of you know, 91 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 2: first game and first playoff game and saw second most 92 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 2: points of tied for second most points and someone in 93 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: their playoff debut behind Luka Dancic. Absolutely entertaining affair between 94 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 2: the Warriors and Kings. And one Mike, I thought, if 95 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: the Sacramento was gonna win Game one, it would be 96 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 2: in a way where they just took all the energy 97 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 2: from the opening tip and just you know, it carried 98 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 2: them throughout forty eight minutes. Maybe it just wasn't the 99 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 2: Warriors night, but that wasn't the case. Like to rally 100 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: from down ten in the third quarter, late in the 101 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: third quarter and to have the lead back like that 102 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: and then you go toe for toe with them over 103 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: the you know, the final twelve minutes of the fourth quarter, 104 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 2: Like it was very, very entertaining, and even when you 105 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: step back and think about it, Wow, Warriors lose on 106 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: the road again, you know, like Sacramento scores a lot 107 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: of points and outscores their opponents. 108 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: It was just playing the script. 109 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, per season great from that point exactly. Yeah, 110 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 2: so it was for as great as the night was 111 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: as you're sitting there watching in the moment, when you 112 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 2: step back and look at it, as you said, it 113 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: played the script last night in Sacramento. 114 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, the thing that struck me is the shots before 115 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: the game, right rolling through, they had more or less 116 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: an outdoor carnival celebrating this long awaited return to the 117 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: playoffs right seventeen years again, data points that you heard 118 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: countless times during the telecast, like we get it. And 119 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: then for Doris Burch, she started getting a little bit 120 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: horse like, stop telling me it's deeron Fox's first time, 121 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: save your voice for that line. But in fantastic job. 122 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: Obviously it's the tongue in cheek. But you get Andrew 123 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 1: Wiggins back and outside of the three point arc, which 124 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 1: was clearly his kryptonite one of eight on the night, 125 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: but it was a happy return for him. We saw 126 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: once again and you see it trending and like Jordan 127 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,919 Speaker 1: Poole defense like he didn't play it, don't even type it, 128 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: like he doesn't pretend most of the time, and that 129 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: would come back to launt you in a series like this, 130 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: because you know Sacramento could score. I mean, they got 131 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: a subpar game from Sabonis and still hung around, right 132 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: he was five or seventeen, came alive a little bit 133 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, but it was the d'aron fox. 134 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 1: What's he gonna do next? 135 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, they were great warriors. Missed what thirty four threes 136 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 2: last night? There was there is? There was a lot 137 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 2: going up in that contest. You know what else was? 138 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: It was unique? Mike Well mentioned the Lakers being on 139 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: national national TV. What have the Sacramento Kings ever been 140 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: on network television? Like, when have they been on a. 141 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: Well, it would have been the equivalent of the Thursday 142 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: night package in the NFL when we had to hey, 143 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: here's the Jaguars when they're bad, or here's the Jaguars 144 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: of the Titans is the famous example. 145 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: I know the shop is the same, so I know 146 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: they have graphics, but just to see just to turn 147 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 2: on a game on ABC and see the Sacramento Kings, 148 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I think that we were in the old 149 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 2: TV deal when they last made the playoffs. I believe 150 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: that was the case. Maybe I could be could be off, 151 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 2: could be off on that, but I mean, it's it's 152 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: been a long long time, so you want to talk 153 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: about grabbing uh, the attention and having everything live up 154 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: to it. I think we thought Boston rich was going 155 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 2: to take care of the Hawks. They did. No, Boston 156 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: looked great. Uh Sixers against the Nets, Sixers looked fine. 157 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: Nixco winning Cleveland. That's a series that you think, no, no, 158 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: it could go six or seven games. But I did 159 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 2: think that this lived up to the billing, even though 160 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 2: I don't know if we expected it, because I don't 161 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: think we expected it, but a lot of this stuff 162 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: on the regular season did hold true. In Sacramento last night. 163 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: Just one of those where you get the beautiful heavyweight 164 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: fight kind of feel back and forth, so like, yeah, 165 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: texted you about it. 166 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: You know. 167 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: It's when I was at WrestleMania a couple of weeks 168 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: ago and they had the big finale and the trading, blows, 169 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: near falls in the crowd rising and falling with each 170 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: of that. It felt the same way I was at 171 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: a restaurant finishing up a meal and watching that play, 172 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: and folks who didn't seem interested for much of the 173 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 1: game all of a sudden, wrapped the tension and getting 174 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: a bit loud as it wore down, and just following 175 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 1: it all the way through to the light the beam 176 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: and then looking at the crowd outside the arena look 177 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: like a championship parade, right that you want to talk 178 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: about a night game, one that gets you fired up 179 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: about the playoffs and what it means to finally be 180 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: back after all all of these years. 181 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: You know, if I'm Sacramento as well, they weren't perfect 182 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: on the stretch, you know, in times where they needed 183 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 2: buckets there there. I know they're trying to get calls, 184 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 2: but there were some bricks you missed, you know, some 185 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: free throws at times. So you take that away, and honestly, 186 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 2: how many of us with two point nine seconds laughed out, 187 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 2: all right, they're going into overtime. 188 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: He's gonna hit a shot. And he got a look. Yeah, 189 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: he had a look that he plays around with in 190 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: in pre game, and a. 191 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 2: Much better look than you know, and that's. 192 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: Missed that wide open yes, right where he was completely unattended. 193 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 2: Yes, but you know, just even with two point nine 194 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: and you're down three and the crowd's clapping and doing 195 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 2: their thing. I'm thinking to myself, don't get too excited 196 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 2: right now because you're you're you could be two point 197 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 2: nine seconds away from from Steph Curry giving an extra 198 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 2: five minutes or Klay Thompson an extra five minutes, and 199 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 2: that doesn't go down. And that's, you know, to the 200 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 2: point of maybe, all right, maybe this is and there 201 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 2: you know, there's a little bit more to this. This 202 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: this connection to the regular season in playoffs is much 203 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: more prevalent now in twenty twenty three than it was 204 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 2: even five years ago. There isn't a switch that's my 205 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: thing on April fifteenth. Yeah, you turn in your tax, 206 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 2: but there's not a switch that you can turn on 207 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 2: anymore in the NBA and be like, all right, we 208 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 2: are who we are. I think the tough part with 209 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: the Warriors MIC is just finding out. I don't think 210 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 2: that we think that they're as good as they were 211 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 2: in the past, but it's who is going to beat them? 212 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 2: Like who? Like what is the team that's going to 213 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: step up? And the reason that I say it's what's 214 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 2: so difficult about it is I unfortunate. I expected maybe 215 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: Sacramento would melt a little in the moment. Fold in 216 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 2: the moment, sure, and they did not. So now all 217 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 2: of a sudden, you see, Oh, that's how the Warriors 218 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 2: can be beaten. And that goes for not only Sacramento, 219 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 2: but any of the other six teams in the NBA 220 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: playoffs that could end up facing the Warriors. Is you 221 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 2: just expect, you know, a lot of times you're picking 222 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 2: games just oh, Warriors are the Warriors. It's not. It's 223 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: not just that. It's when it comes down to it, 224 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,440 Speaker 2: who's going to make shots in certain possessions, who's going 225 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: to get stops? And you always expect the Warriors to 226 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: do so. And I just I think last night was 227 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: a good night for the rest of the NBA, or 228 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 2: at least the West, the rest of the Western Conference 229 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: in terms of all right, if Golden State even would 230 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 2: win this series, I think that they've even losing by three, 231 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 2: that there is a way that you can get past 232 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: them in the playoffs. 233 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 1: Well, and that's that's the thing. Coming into the Western 234 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 1: Conference playoffs. I think most folks have dismissed Denver Gagoraz 235 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: a number one seed. It doesn't matter. They're good, not great. 236 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: Lot Phoenix is the trendy pick and it always comes 237 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: back to the dot dot dot. If healthy, that's the 238 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: game we have to play in the NBA. First, to 239 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: your point about regular season holding into post, we'll see 240 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: because we have so many of these teams that were 241 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: incomplete or reassembled, repurposed, repackaged, whatever, right. The Lakers a 242 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 1: much different team the last twenty five games. Now, the 243 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: regular season schedule did have its help points with what 244 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: they put. But you beat who's on the schedule right, 245 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: and you find your confidence, find your rotations, reinsert Lebron 246 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: And unfortunately that means sometimes there's some ball watching and 247 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: guys standing around. But if he and Davis are healthy, 248 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: I think we all stipulate to the fact that they 249 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: can take over a game. Officials are what they are. 250 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: I mean, how many times did you see the deer 251 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: in the headlights in all of these games yesterday? Whenever 252 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: there was a review or something guys might have had 253 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 1: to explain, ye all looked like they were gonna wet themselves. Standards, 254 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: It's okay, it's okay, you made the call. Now tell 255 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: us and your face will become the meme of the moment. 256 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: What you should you should? You should run a broadcasting 257 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 2: school for how to speak to the camera at the 258 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 2: scores table. You know, like there's a bit of broadcasting 259 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 2: to that, right, get a little bit too look at 260 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 2: the look at the camera, say it with emphasis, Speak clearly. 261 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 2: That's the way that you know, put a demo together. 262 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 2: Just have guys going up to a table talking into 263 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 2: a camera. Good work on the side. Brought my podcast, 264 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 2: Mike Harmon's Referee Broadcast boot Camp. 265 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: You made the call, be prepared to like, because the 266 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: one was the overturned foul, right, So it was a 267 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 1: call to reach in on Draymond and they went to 268 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: the subruder film and they decided that he got the 269 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 1: ball cleanly, so they reversed it. But because he's in Sacramento, 270 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: dude looked like he did not want the rain of 271 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: booze that was about to come. So he's just kind 272 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 1: of shifting back and forth, like just say it, saying 273 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: that he finally did and the cascade came down. Refuse, suck, 274 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: chance and everything else. Like you're a referee in the NBA, 275 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 1: you've had that moment. I've been court sided and not 276 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: frequently enough. It's one thing I think if anybody in 277 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: sports to treat yourself to something. As you go sit 278 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: court side of the game, particularly if there's a little 279 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: bit of bad blood, you'll hear more smack talk towards 280 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: everybody and everything, including the referee, and they take a 281 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: lot of abuse. I think that's the thing that's lost 282 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: on this. Like by the time they finally give someone 283 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: a TECH, unless it's early because there's history, by the 284 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: time they do it, they've taken a lot. 285 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: Of verga guys. Yes, just keep on talking and talking 286 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 2: and talking and talking and talking. It happens all the time. Now, 287 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: with all this being said, I did say that the 288 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 2: Warriors were one of four teams that have thought could 289 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 2: win the NBA title. Sons the other from the West, 290 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: Bucks and Celtics said with you. You know, there was 291 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: one Mike, there was one day where I thought, you 292 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: know what, maybe Milwaukee can get over on Boston. Started 293 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: thinking that way. And this is me as a Bucks fan. 294 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 2: And then the Celtics went and beat him by forty 295 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 2: at home. 296 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember that, But you want to know part 297 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: of those bulls No. Two, everything's up for man, the 298 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: detonator and the shiny red button's gonna get pushed by 299 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: the front. 300 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: He would have been a rematch. You know, then they 301 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: played a season ago in the first round, so they 302 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 2: could have been you know, I don't want that familiarity. 303 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: There was a lot of talent wasted in Chicago. That's 304 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: a lot of guys for what they got as an output. Yes, yeah, yes, 305 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: here's Kobe White. He's like, yeah, I'm done because I 306 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: think I can start for about twenty other and you 307 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: could yeah, yeah, no, you're right, you're limited, his minutes limited, 308 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: whatever reason, and then you've got the stars and then 309 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,359 Speaker 1: marking in over there. I kept seeing his meme yesterday, 310 00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: like this guy, I could have been like, yeah, so 311 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: say lovey, we get to dables up. Yeah, exactly. The 312 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: NBA playoffs later on Today. Last week we talked about 313 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: a big move heading into the playoffs that drew the 314 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: ire of everybody involved. We got the decision late this week, 315 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: and maybe we can figure out how to correct this 316 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: problem for the future, because the NBA really didn't seem 317 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: to care.

We've 347 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: clipped off some things from the last couple of weeks shows, 348 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 1: and obviously with the draft imminent. Post draft, we'll reset 349 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: and do another one of those mock drafts where we 350 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,719 Speaker 1: yell at each other and pick on Bershinger. We'll do that. 351 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: But it's a fun and exciting world. We'll look at 352 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: it a little bit from a different angle as the 353 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: show goes on, Dan, but you know, it's one of 354 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: those things now swirling in the background. I'm starting to 355 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: print off, I got to go find my draft bibles 356 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: at maybe a little Barnes Noble Runner later on today. 357 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 2: Well, hopefully that those draft bibles had your Bears trading 358 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 2: their pick. 359 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: Well, no, they were printed in January. Yeah, like the 360 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: Fantasy magazine. 361 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: Oh absolutely. That's the one thing about the NFL pushing 362 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 2: their schedule back and having the draft like it's been 363 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,239 Speaker 2: like a week later than what it used to be. 364 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 2: It felt like it was like the third week in April, 365 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: and now it's the final week in April and sometimes 366 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 2: goes into May. Was there were always the preseason football 367 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 2: magazines that around Memorial Day you go to the grocery 368 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 2: store and you're like, all right, let's be honest. It 369 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 2: was always Lindy's or Athlon. Oh yeah, they had the 370 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 2: first ones out Memorial Day weekend, late May, and the 371 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 2: NFL had their schedule out by then, the draft was 372 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 2: was well in place and you could put together a 373 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 2: preview magazine. However, now schedule doesn't come out until mid 374 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 2: May at times, and then you have the draft being late, 375 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 2: so those preseason schedules are those preseason magazines are pushed 376 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 2: to more of June. Good to know that the draft 377 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: is keeping up though by being printed in January. I'm 378 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 2: glad glad to hear that without knowing exactly who the 379 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 2: early entries are. You know, maybe they do it on 380 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 2: you know, January third, so we don't know who is 381 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 2: still in. But no, it's good time of year. Nice 382 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 2: to pick up a draft guy and the good things 383 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: you find them online as well. 384 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: No, it's a beauty of it. Mock draft iteration ninety 385 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: seven point four and just shuffling it up. Why because 386 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: you feel like you need to shuffle it up because 387 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: you had a deadline this week I need it updated 388 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: drafts like nothing's happened. 389 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: I am on the fence of do I like mock 390 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 2: drafts with projected trades or do I not like them 391 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 2: because I don't think that it is the forte of 392 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: the person making the mock draft to actually make an 393 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 2: NFL trade. So how much do I really buy into it? 394 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 2: But there is the other factor of just having a 395 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,159 Speaker 2: straight in this year thirty one, you know pick, first 396 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: round of it. Just being straight can get a little boring. 397 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: So I'm like on the fence, I'm not sure if 398 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 2: I like, Hey, guess what I think that the the 399 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,239 Speaker 2: you know, Falcons will move up to try to get 400 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 2: a quarterback, or the Raiders will move up or the Titans. 401 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 2: I don't know how much I love that. Yet it 402 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 2: does add a little bit more salt and pepper to 403 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 2: it than just a Bland regular mock draft. 404 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I always do the Bland regular mock draft. I 405 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: do a one rounder the day before we've assimilated all 406 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,239 Speaker 1: the information. Obviously, things change in our draft coverage. You're 407 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: starting to hear the ads Steve Kahn, former GM of 408 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: the Cardinals, with Jay Glazer, LeVar Arrington and Rob Stone 409 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: bringing it all together here for us here on Fox 410 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, and then Smith and I'll come in and 411 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: eviscerate whatever teams did. But the goal was always just 412 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: if I can get the player matched up with the team, 413 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: I take it as a win. Yes, wherever they get traded, 414 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: whatever gets bounced, you're trying to evaluate it, you and 415 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: I doing the fantasy stuff, and obviously the amount of 416 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 1: coverage we do of the NFL, and the fact that 417 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm a nerd that goes back and watches most of 418 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: these games a second time. I try to pretend to 419 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: know something. Well, sometimes it works, and sometimes it's a 420 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 1: dumpster fire floating down a river. 421 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 2: Well, there's a domino effect as well of getting one wrong. 422 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 2: So if you get the third overall wrong, that means 423 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: that the guy that was just picked, you have him 424 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 2: at a different team, so that one's you know wrong, 425 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: plus you got the one that you just did wrong. 426 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 2: And that can also send other dominoes because if somebody 427 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 2: trades up to get that guy or that guy was picked, 428 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 2: then there could be other deals that That's why it 429 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 2: is so difficult to honestly get more than eight correct 430 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 2: in a first round. If someone is getting double digits 431 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 2: correct in a mock draft, then they really really know 432 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 2: their stuff, because it is darn near impossible because once 433 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 2: one domino falls, then they're all falling. 434 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: Well, then I just hope they trade back in because 435 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,399 Speaker 1: if he ends up on the right team in that 436 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 1: first round, even if I had him as the EF 437 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: and he goes seventeenth, I'm taking credit for Dan. 438 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 2: This is what happens. If you were to get eight 439 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 2: right out a mock draft, you probably got the first 440 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 2: five correct. And this year there's five or six guys 441 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 2: that could go in that top five or six names 442 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 2: that we get, Bryce Young, CJ. Stroud, Will Anderson. 443 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: What happens with carter Y? Is he out like he's 444 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: the wild cart and all of it? Yeah, right, How 445 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: many teams want to trade up and go grab a 446 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: quarter is really do they love these quarterbacks? Because if 447 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: you pull back the talent assessment, like, nobody loves any 448 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 1: of these guys, like just full on in no matter 449 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: how many times you see the Josh McCown video of 450 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: Tim dhilling, every Wood Carolina prospect, You're gonna look great here, 451 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: we love you. Here, You've got me, you know what 452 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: I mean? Like all of that, and so because we're 453 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: looking to next year already of the top picks and 454 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: would it would they behoove them to wait? The quarterback 455 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: carousel is still unsettled for this year, as we will 456 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,479 Speaker 1: talk about more extensively next hour. You know, the two 457 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: big names that everybody keeps trying to put and fix 458 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: in a in a space. There's there's still twisting in 459 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: the wind, as it were. But for this rookie quarterback class, 460 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 1: how much do you love Levice? Do you just love 461 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: him because he you know, looks like he's carved out 462 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: of out of clay. Do you do you like potential Richardson? 463 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: Do you love his potential versus looking at what you 464 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: saw on field? 465 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 2: Right? 466 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: There were some great moments, some less than stellar moments. 467 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 1: You're talking about accuracy and all of those things, but 468 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: you love the physical prospect. And then obviously Young and 469 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: Stroud pick your poison. And you know, we do this 470 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: the thing where it could be the perfect prospect, but 471 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: because we do this for so long, we've got to 472 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: find the flaws. 473 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the Bryce Young was magnificent at Alabama. But 474 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 2: I do think that the height thing is it's an 475 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 2: extreme issue and it's you know, as you're trying to decipher. 476 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 2: So you know, even with those guys, you know, we 477 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: think from the word lately Bryce Young headed to Carolina, 478 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: but again who knows. But yeah, you're right in the 479 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 2: Anthony Richardson thing, Like if you were to draft Will 480 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 2: Levis and you gave him ample playing time in twenty 481 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 2: twenty three, I think you'd have a little bit of Okay, 482 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 2: I think we have a feel of what we've got 483 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 2: here with Anthony Richardson. Different story. So like, if you 484 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 2: draft Anthony Richardson, you aren't going to draft a quarterback 485 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 2: next year. There could be a scenario where if you 486 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 2: draft Will leve Us, you know you're looking at a 487 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 2: quarterback the next year of the year after. In terms 488 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 2: of wanting to move on for now, how quickly we 489 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 2: move on from these quarterbacks? Right? I mean, you know 490 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 2: we've seen Sam Darnold get traded in his rookie year. 491 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 2: We have the Josh Rosen story is obviously known. Like 492 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 2: if if you draft Will Levis and he stinks or 493 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 2: you try to give him playing time and all of 494 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 2: a sudden you're picking number one overall, well and you're 495 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 2: gonna take Caleb Williams and figure out what to do 496 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 2: with him. 497 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: So there's right, you'll sell them off for parts. 498 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's just you know, that's the 499 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 2: unique you know situation spot where we are right now 500 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 2: in the NFL drive. 501 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: Well, it's a it's a different world, right in terms 502 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 1: of how you're evaluating talent. You don't feel beholden and 503 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 1: sometimes gms aren't any more like it used to be. 504 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: You you picked early on a quarterback and that quarterback failed, 505 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: you didn't get another bite at the apple. Sometimes the 506 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: gms now survived to do that again, but playing a 507 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 1: quarterback all the way through and we saw it. Daniel 508 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 1: Jones got paid, but they hadn't picked up his fifty 509 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 1: year option, right. It ended up working out for him, 510 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: And now it's causing a ripple effect in New York 511 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 1: in terms of contracts and everybody being less than agreeable 512 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: to what's going on with the squad. But the point 513 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 1: being that the full buy in isn't there like it 514 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 1: used to be an automatic. Hey, you're getting your second 515 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: contract and we'll figure it out. Now it's like, all right, 516 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: y're two. This guy's not really working out, is he No? 517 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: And you're exactly right, And the cases that we bring 518 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 2: up like like in a Will Levis situation, that's an 519 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 2: extreme scenario. But that extreme scenario, to your point, didn't 520 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: exist twenty years ago. Like, you know, you give a 521 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: guy a contract and he doesn't work out. He sets 522 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 2: your franchise back five years, and you have all this 523 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 2: money that you can't spend because you just gave it 524 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 2: to the quarterback. It's just a different sort of animal 525 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 2: now that there are more options. I mean, heck, look 526 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: at the Cardinals. Just gave Kyler Murray the deal that 527 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: they did. Now nobody wants to be in Arizona, And 528 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 2: now you're sitting there saying this team is not going 529 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 2: to be good at all. DeAndre Hopkins is being shopped 530 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 2: some of the stuff that we knew. JJ Watt retired. 531 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 2: But you're thinking to yourself, well, if the Cardinals are 532 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 2: picking number one, do you stick with Kyler Murray or 533 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 2: do you say, all right, maybe there's a deal to 534 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 2: be made and Caleb Williams is our guy. Like that 535 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: conversation actually does exist, and it's crazy to think because 536 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 2: it just wasn't like that in the NFL and FIR. 537 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 2: As crazy as those conversations may be, you're actually having 538 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 2: those conversations. 539 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: And it just needs one owner to come over at 540 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: the top, yeah, to make that happen. More on the 541 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: draft coming up a little later on in the show. 542 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 1: Coming up next, we'll turn our attention to tanking in 543 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: the NBA and the NBA's laughable response to a long 544 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 1: running problem because they got their poster boy that they wanted. 545 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: But first, it's Isaac lowan crowd.

There were a lot 612 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 6: of other Harry Davis's that were prominent back then. So 613 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,959 Speaker 6: he invented.

Right? 668 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: No? I mean, look, it's a hundred bucks or maybe 669 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: maybe two hundred. 670 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not going to there may just have to 671 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 2: be one crew card. That's what it was like the like. 672 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 1: The shares of the Andre, the Giant Jack Jocks Strapp. 673 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: It just becomes a communal property, all right. So the 674 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: Mavericks were fined seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars for 675 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 1: violating the league's player resting policy and demonstrated through actions 676 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: and public statements the organization's desire to lose the game 677 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: in order to improve the chances of keeping its first 678 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: round pick in the twenty twenty three NBA Draft. They 679 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: violated the sancrety, the sanctity of the game. Joe Dumars, 680 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: the legend NBA executive vice president and head of Basketball 681 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:54,280 Speaker 1: Operations quote, undermine the integrity of our sport. They weren't 682 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: the only team in Texas doing that this year. No, 683 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 1: did they choose to do it at at a time 684 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 1: really kind of flip bold middle fingers at the NBA 685 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: and it's and it's wares sure, but we've celebrated this, 686 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: we've watched this go on forever. But because you dislike 687 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: Mark Cuban, here here's a seven or of fifty thousand 688 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: dollars five and what's that gonna do? He shakes that 689 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: out of his like his like he's on the yard 690 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: at Shawshank. 691 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: There are a couple of reasons why I was trying 692 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 2: to figure out why this was, why this was happening, 693 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 2: and I thought, maybe Mike, because it was the the 694 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 2: play in tournament where Dallas shunned the new shiny toy 695 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 2: of the NBA, where they said, you know, we we 696 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 2: would rather actually have the other deal than to play 697 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 2: in the play in tournament. I also think that because 698 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 2: of where gambling is nowadays and across this country, they 699 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 2: didn't love the Luca's only gonna play a little bit. 700 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, the over runner was eleven and a half points. 701 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: He ended up scoring once in that minute he played 702 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: in the second time. Yeah, but you know I could 703 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 1: take it over. 704 00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 2: How do you know, like how many points you know 705 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 2: he's gonna in the first quarter, you know, or how 706 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 2: many minutes he's gonna play in the first quarter. I 707 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,360 Speaker 2: think that actually has a lot to do with what happened, 708 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 2: because to your point, the heck Spurs and Rockets this season. 709 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 2: You know, if we know that they're gonna have top 710 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 2: odds to try to get wembin Yama because of how 711 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 2: their season went. But what I think is the worst 712 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:25,799 Speaker 2: part about this is Dallas is getting fined for this 713 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: when Mike they actually tried to go for it, like 714 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 2: these other teams aren't even trying. 715 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: Right, They made the move and it didn't work. Yes, right, 716 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: you went and gave up key assets to your rotation 717 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: thinking that the big fish of Kyrie Irving was going 718 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: to solve some of the ills and it didn't work. 719 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 1: Now can it long term? Maybe maybe not, that's to 720 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: be seen. But to your point, yeah, they actually made 721 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: a move to try to improve their squad. 722 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 2: So it comes down to it, and you're gonna, you know, 723 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 2: pinpoint one game just because of what was said publicly 724 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 2: by Jason Kidd, you know. And Cuban got fined you know, 725 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: a couple of times years back, I think once in 726 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, oneces twenty eighteen again for you know, saying 727 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 2: they weren't trying to win games. So this is nothing new, 728 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 2: but that fine. By the way, you got docked six 729 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars. Now this was seven point fifty, so 730 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 2: you got a five to six year span where that 731 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: change it. That's not a huge it's not like a 732 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 2: third offense increase. Like a third offense like that fine 733 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 2: would have been doubled or tripled. The NBA just tried 734 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 2: to make it look like they cared, which just made 735 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 2: it even more ridiculous because it was the Mavericks who 736 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 2: actually did care by making a move. It didn't work out. 737 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 2: They had to figure out a way to pivot at 738 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: the end to make it work for them. Unfortunately for them, 739 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 2: they're poorzingis deal now came to you know, came to 740 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,839 Speaker 2: roost and you got to pay the piper and if 741 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,839 Speaker 2: you lose that top ten pick, then you're worse off 742 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 2: than you were. I just a bad look by the NBA, 743 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 2: and I think they hit the amount of the fine. 744 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 2: You know, Cuban's matching it to charity anyway. You know, 745 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 2: we all say, like, what's the big deal? If they 746 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 2: get Victor Webbin Yama, that's seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars. 747 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:05,959 Speaker 2: Well spent all. 748 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 1: The tampering stuff. Whenever that that comes up. It's like 749 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: if you get the guy the free agent or the 750 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 1: lottery ping pong balls all your way, who cares right 751 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: Tampa away. In this case, they made the choice, we're 752 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: probably not winning a title. We saw enough of a 753 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: sample size of these guys together. We're not good enough. 754 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: Could we win the play in and go into a series? Sure, 755 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 1: could we maybe win a series? Maybe, but you're not 756 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: getting over and recognizing that shouldn't be punished, or if 757 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna go all in, then yeah, let's start restricting 758 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 1: the salary cap that these teams have to operate. You've 759 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: got to have real sanctions as opposed to you know, 760 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: hey cut us a check. 761 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I felt too, like the You know, 762 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 2: I have a lot of problems with the lottery. I 763 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 2: don't like that it's weighted. I think because it's weighted, 764 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 2: you have teams that want to tank. But I also 765 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 2: think that it helps you when you're middle teams in 766 00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 2: the NBA. And I actually put the MAVs in the 767 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:06,320 Speaker 2: middle because you know, even though they're bottom third now, 768 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 2: there's still a middle team if you can add another 769 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 2: key piece to that that makes that franchise stronger and 770 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,440 Speaker 2: better for your league. So here they're trying to protect 771 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 2: that asset, which would actually make the team better. Yet 772 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 2: they're going to be punished for it because it's just 773 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: one one game. Hey, guess what, you know what smart 774 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 2: Beetters did. They didn't bet that game, you know, that's 775 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 2: what they did. So it's just bad luck by the NBA. 776 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,760 Speaker 2: Just doesn't make any sense at all in the amount 777 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 2: of the fine. If you really want to nail them, 778 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 2: you know, find them two million dollars. 779 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it goes back to what you've agreed upon. And 780 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: I don't know that the CBA would allow it, but 781 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: the idea of all right, we're going to reduce what 782 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 1: your salary cap is, there's got to be real penalties 783 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 1: or stripping draft picks all together. Hey, you know what 784 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:56,760 Speaker 1: for these two years, Yeah, you worked for that pick. 785 00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:01,280 Speaker 1: Guess what it's now voided. Maybe the vacated champions in college, Maybe. 786 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 2: The NBA should force them to sign Kyrie Irving as 787 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 2: their penalty. 788 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: You know, you know what, he was on your roster 789 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: on this date. You're locked in long term. 790 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 2: Pay the pipe to the max. Oh man, oh boy. 791 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: And Luca has to work on defense, and that's the 792 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 1: other penalty. 793 00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 2: I don't know anybody who said good job, NBA. I 794 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 2: think this was unanimous. Everybody thought that this was. 795 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,200 Speaker 1: A joke, but it also goes back to Adam Silver 796 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: will do nothing if that's the option. He's Dan on Mike. 797 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 1: Coming up next, we talk Washington Commanders.

That was a 826 00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 2: Dan and Mike conversation. The other of it, we're all family, Dan, 827 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 2: so this is what happened this week. So looking at 828 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:09,439 Speaker 2: grabbing some grabbing some food and we're like, hey, let's 829 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 2: get some pizza and wings. That's what it was. And 830 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 2: the class any pizza place that you go at, whether 831 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 2: it be a national chain, whether it be a local place, 832 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 2: has both convenience wise. For us, a national chain is 833 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 2: very very close to us. But they're chicken to me, 834 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 2: is the worst of any national chain. It is. It 835 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 2: is not good, boneless, bone in They're awful. It's bad. 836 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 2: They're on top of it. Our local store probably stinks, 837 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 2: is like, is worse than others. So it's just not 838 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 2: a good combination. However, in this same strip mall area, 839 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 2: there is a spot for wings. So what I did 840 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 2: was I placed the order for the pizza at one place, 841 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 2: and then place the order for the wings at the other. 842 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,280 Speaker 2: And I just felt dirty. I had done this maybe 843 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 2: once or twice before, Like I feel like I'm really 844 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 2: going out of my way to buy bad food, you know. 845 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: But but I'm like, but you're not the better food, 846 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 1: right if you if you'd settled for the rings at 847 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,200 Speaker 1: the other place that had just said that, that would 848 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: have been worse to my estimation, because now you're settling 849 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: for bad food that you know, the quality is not, 850 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 1: like that's not what they specialize it, right, So now 851 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: you're downgrading not only the experience, you're still paying the 852 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: premium price. But really it's gonna. 853 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:40,560 Speaker 2: Wreck Yes, yes, and I got you know, yeah, yeah 854 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 2: it's got wrecked. Yeah it was. But but it wasn't 855 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 2: the combo of the two. That was not the point. 856 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,359 Speaker 2: It was just the point of me going like. 857 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 1: I don't think you feel bad about it at all. 858 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 2: I actually I really did, Like I really felt like 859 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 2: I was I was backing out of the spot because 860 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 2: the I picked up the pizza for and the wing 861 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 2: spot is It's not that it's too far for a walk, 862 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,080 Speaker 2: it's just it's more convenient if I would just back, 863 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 2: you know, drive the thirty parking spots and go pull 864 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 2: in and then I could just leave from there and 865 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 2: it's it's better. As I was backing out knowing I 866 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 2: had a point, you know, zero zero two mile drive 867 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 2: to the wingstop, the wing place. I'm not saying that 868 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 2: was the place or not, but that's a knowing that 869 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 2: that was where I was going. I did feel guilty. 870 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 2: I did feel bad. I felt like it was by 871 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 2: the way. I do not think that the wings were 872 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,440 Speaker 2: I know for a fact the wings were not the culprit. 873 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 2: See there you go, the wings were not the culprit. 874 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:47,319 Speaker 2: But but but. 875 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,879 Speaker 1: The point being made is like I I have had 876 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 1: to do this with my kids, okay, since they were babies, 877 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 1: and especially as they developed their own palettes. And I 878 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: think everybody can speak to it. Wherever you're at nationally, 879 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: you've got different chains or local places where there is 880 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 1: a specialty or there's something that you really love on 881 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 1: the menu or you tolerate on the menu in some 882 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:17,440 Speaker 1: cases depending on your kid's palettes. But there are places 883 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 1: where there's really good stuff on the menu, but there's 884 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: something that suffers. Maybe it's the appetizer, maybe it's the accompaniment. 885 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: Like here in California, there's always a debate on what style, 886 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 1: what type, and where you're getting your French fries. And 887 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: there are famous burger places that everybody loves to run 888 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: into when they come into town. See I'm leading you 889 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 1: down there, but they're not paying me, so I'm not 890 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 1: giving them any plugs. But nobody likes their fries. So 891 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,720 Speaker 1: you go down the street after you've secured your satchel 892 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,799 Speaker 1: of burgers and milkshakes, and you go buy fries at 893 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,040 Speaker 1: another place, And do you feel a little bit odd 894 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: the first time? Sure? And then you say, screw it. 895 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: My kids are now happy and they're not going to 896 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 1: complain that they hated the fries that I forced them 897 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,120 Speaker 1: to eat because I wouldn't code down the road. 898 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 2: I'm glad that there is a partner in crime with this, 899 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 2: because to me, it just felt I was crossing a 900 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 2: boundary that I should not have crossed. Like, yeah, you're 901 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,280 Speaker 2: paying for it, Dan, Well that's what I thought as well. Yeah, 902 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,839 Speaker 2: Like I thought to myself. If there's a place that's 903 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 2: right next door that provides a better product than the other, 904 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 2: then why not just make two separate orders. And and 905 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,280 Speaker 2: so that's what I did. Now the outcome completely different story. 906 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 2: That's just that was that was pizza place, you know, 907 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 2: But we don't have to talk about that is. It's 908 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 2: just it's just the fact. It's just the fact that 909 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:47,239 Speaker 2: I felt felt that I crossed a line, even though 910 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 2: I think I've maybe crossed it like a time or two. Never, 911 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 2: I haven't done it more than three times. Because also, 912 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 2: like if you were to go to I'll just say, 913 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 2: you go to Eyes and you get you know, you 914 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:07,879 Speaker 2: get some spicy chicken there, cajun fries, go with what 915 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 2: it is, I would I would think that eating a 916 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 2: big Mac and not having McDonald's fries would be weird psychologically. 917 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: Probably there's something. 918 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 2: To Yeah, there's there's some there are some sort of 919 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 2: taste buds that even if the product is is is 920 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 2: lesser than maybe what another place. You're not combining them 921 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 2: like you're not. It's it's like the what would it be? 922 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:34,839 Speaker 2: It would be the the Four Lakers, Like even though 923 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 2: you're putting you know, Shaq Kobe, Gary Payton and Karl 924 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 2: malonoll on the same team doesn't guarantee an NBA titled. 925 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 2: And the Pistons, you know, Pistons prove that. It's like 926 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 2: you can have the best burger, fry, milkshake, and you know, 927 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,760 Speaker 2: drink from somewhere else, but you put them all together 928 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 2: and if you have them, it's just not right. You 929 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 2: kind of still you need one to accompany the other. 930 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,959 Speaker 2: And that's you know, the chicken at the one place 931 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 2: was just so bad at the pizza place that it 932 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,279 Speaker 2: could just not go and purchase it, which forced me 933 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 2: to go to the other place, which I thought was 934 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 2: the better option. 935 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 1: You vote with your dollars, you vote with your feet. 936 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 1: And that's the lesson with all of this, and it 937 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,359 Speaker 1: applies to I mean, because everybody's doing that at least 938 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 1: some point between baseball kicking off the NBA playoffs, maybe 939 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 1: you're having a watch party. We just had the NCAA tournament. 940 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,919 Speaker 1: There's a million things going on where people you're gonna 941 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 1: have that converged the food because or at least maybe 942 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 1: I'm giving people too much credit, but most folks don't 943 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 1: show up on empty handed, so they're either bringing some 944 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,319 Speaker 1: food item, or they're bringing you more booze. Now you 945 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 1: don't drink. So my guess is when people show up 946 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 1: at your house, they're more likely to bring you food 947 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,359 Speaker 1: or snacks or something for your son. 948 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,439 Speaker 2: Yes, correct, versus. 949 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: Here's a bottle of wine or whatever, So you're gonna 950 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:54,360 Speaker 1: get perhaps what's an odd mix. But you know what, 951 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: if I'm showed up at your house, I want to 952 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: make sure I got something that I like or that 953 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it's something that everybody likes a little 954 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:06,239 Speaker 1: taste of, or something that's cheap enough that I could 955 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 1: buy in bulk. And we have that for multiple Do you. 956 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: Do you tie in the soda product with the establishment 957 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 2: because McDonald's is a coke shop. Yeah, a big deal 958 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 2: back in the back in the Midwest and parts of 959 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 2: Colorado and Utah and Arizona. Now, Culvers switched from pepsi 960 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 2: to coke at the turn of the new year, and 961 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 2: there is a big outrage, a big outrage. Iowa Sam, 962 00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 2: I think has had Culvers before, and I don't know, 963 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,600 Speaker 2: maybe he goes with the root beer. But it's just 964 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,720 Speaker 2: the point of when you when you switch that drink, 965 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 2: Like I couldn't imagine you know, like I couldn't imagine 966 00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 2: a McDonald's with pepsi, even though I consider myself a 967 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 2: pepsi guy. Like that's that's a coke product building, and 968 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 2: there's so like I would associate, Like it would be 969 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 2: weird to have a coca cola at Culvers, which now 970 00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 2: is the norm, or to have a pepsi at McDonald's. 971 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 2: You know, just it wouldn't mix. 972 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,920 Speaker 1: See, that's why I end up at the when given 973 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:19,880 Speaker 1: my druthers of my fast dish food, convenient dining, whatever 974 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: euphemism worth throwing on it, I end up at the 975 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:27,960 Speaker 1: Danny DeVito shild sandwich shop because I like their stubborn 976 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:33,760 Speaker 1: colas as opposed to the you know, dominant coke pepsi debate. 977 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:37,319 Speaker 2: This is you're branching off into a world that is 978 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:38,279 Speaker 2: completely new. 979 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,400 Speaker 1: Cream soda, yeah for the wind. There you go. But 980 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 1: it goes back to preferences, and it goes back to 981 00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: how you want to spend your dollars. There are two 982 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,800 Speaker 1: groups vying for the Washington Commanders, one at a six 983 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:56,359 Speaker 1: point two ish billion dollar valuation, and that's Harris and 984 00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 1: Magic Johnson in the group. And they thought they won. 985 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 1: No wait, hold on, over here. Seven billion. I got 986 00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:06,919 Speaker 1: it all in cash. Brian Davis comes forward, and now 987 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:10,760 Speaker 1: it's the vetting process of where's this money coming from, 988 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: what ties does it have, you know, and how clean 989 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: is it and all of those things and viability of 990 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:20,800 Speaker 1: businesses going forward, partnerships and everything else. So the Harris 991 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 1: group they thought they were done, and people exhaled, they celebrated, 992 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: cause either way, we're at the goal line. And I 993 00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 1: guess this ties into some of the other stuff we'll 994 00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,839 Speaker 1: talk about around this and other NFL stories of we're 995 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 1: at the goal line out a lot of stuff, but 996 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 1: we haven't scored yet. Right, That's the argument with the Jets. 997 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 1: Imminent intends to be here, Joe Douglas getting in front 998 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 1: of a bunch of drunk fans and saying, yeah, he's 999 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 1: gonna be here. Maybe he does, maybe doesn't. But with 1000 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 1: Washington and the sale being imminent, it gets due to 1001 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:57,320 Speaker 1: envision better glory days of the past of the once 1002 00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 1: proud Washington Redskins franchise is nickname notwithstanding of a team 1003 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 1: that was viable as opposed to the last twenty plus years. 1004 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 1: And our teammate LeVar Arrington could talk to this because 1005 00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,680 Speaker 1: he was the first draft pick of the Snyder regime, 1006 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: and what that organization has stood for for many years 1007 00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 1: whisper conjecture, speculation finally into a bunch of investigations, and 1008 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 1: ultimately I didn't think we'd see this day. I thought 1009 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,879 Speaker 1: it would be from my cold dead hands or being 1010 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:31,279 Speaker 1: ripped apart forcefully by some executive order. 1011 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 2: I will I will say this, I did think we'd 1012 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,840 Speaker 2: see this day. And by that I mean Dan Snyder 1013 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 2: would get an offer. We thought the deal would be done, 1014 00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 2: and then he's like, no, I can get more, and 1015 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,400 Speaker 2: then so so so yeah, to that point, like it's 1016 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 2: like it is. I did think that this it wouldn't 1017 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,840 Speaker 2: be as clean and as easy as in the process 1018 00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 2: that we thought that would play out, because I just 1019 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 2: never thought yet. No, I know what you're saying, and 1020 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 2: I'm doing it tongue in cheek, but there is a 1021 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 2: truth to that. You knew it wasn't going to be easy, 1022 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:05,200 Speaker 2: and you knew it wasn't going to be this clean. 1023 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:06,840 Speaker 2: And now when you think that you have a deal, 1024 00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 2: which by the way, was just shy of six billion, 1025 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 2: then it was six billion, then it was six point 1026 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 2: oh five billion dollars, and that seemed to be the 1027 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:16,800 Speaker 2: set number. Now you're going a whole nother billion dollars 1028 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 2: over that and going to seven billion, completely changing the game. 1029 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:25,280 Speaker 2: But that's what's you know, that the you know, it's 1030 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:27,480 Speaker 2: tough for us to relate to ownership in terms of 1031 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 2: a sports franchise, but it's easy for us to relate 1032 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,719 Speaker 2: to ownership of a sports franchise when you're a fan 1033 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 2: of a team that has bad ownership, because it is 1034 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:41,759 Speaker 2: so it is so apparent. I just even remember, I'm 1035 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,040 Speaker 2: not a Dodgers fan, but the mcurt era here in 1036 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,720 Speaker 2: La was my goodness. You want to talk about taking 1037 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:51,680 Speaker 2: a storied franchise and you know, dwindling it down to just, 1038 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 2: you know, mediocrity, That's that's what it was. And this 1039 00:53:55,719 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 2: is probably you know, three four, five times worse for 1040 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 2: what happened to the Washington football franchise. You and I 1041 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:06,840 Speaker 2: are of an age mic where we grew up watching 1042 00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:10,319 Speaker 2: football in the nineteen eighties, and if you're growing up 1043 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 2: at that time and you're watching football, we look back 1044 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,399 Speaker 2: and we'd be like Joe Montana and those forty nine ers. 1045 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 2: There was a time where Washington was on par with 1046 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 2: San Francisco. 1047 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: Sure, San Francisco is Washington and the Giants yues. Like 1048 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,040 Speaker 1: when you look at that Cowboys in the early nineties. 1049 00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:31,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, but there's also a Washington Super Bowl put 1050 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 2: you know in there when they beat the Bills in 1051 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:37,359 Speaker 2: you know, in Minnesota in the early nineties. So when 1052 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 2: you look at at what Washington put together, I mean 1053 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 2: it's a Super Bowl win over the Dolphins, they lost 1054 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 2: to the Raiders, they then beat the Broncos and Super 1055 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 2: Bowl twenty two, they won Super Bowl twenty six. You 1056 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 2: can point to all that, like that's where this franchise was. 1057 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:55,600 Speaker 2: And we look back so fondly at the forty nine 1058 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 2: ers in that golden era at you know as being 1059 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 2: like Joe mont Tanna and Jerry Rice. But Washington was 1060 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:06,200 Speaker 2: with them every step of the way. Now times change. 1061 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,839 Speaker 2: But it also shows you on what happens to an 1062 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 2: organization that gets so far from being a proud franchise. 1063 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 2: And that's what the real shame in all of this was. 1064 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 2: And I think that there's probably a younger generation that 1065 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 2: doesn't realize what Washington Football actually meant back in the day. 1066 00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 2: I know those in the DC, you know area in 1067 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,840 Speaker 2: Virginia and all understand it's their livelihood, it's their life. 1068 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 2: But just in general the football landscape, Mike, you know, 1069 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 2: Washington was it, Washington was. I mean, they were on 1070 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:40,479 Speaker 2: par with the best, and to see how far it's 1071 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 2: fallen and just how bad it's gotten, Hopefully whoever ends 1072 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,359 Speaker 2: up buying the team can at least restore some of 1073 00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 2: that greatness. I don't want to go as far as 1074 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,280 Speaker 2: to say, Mike that the NFL is better when Washington 1075 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,840 Speaker 2: is better. I think that's really only saved for a 1076 00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:58,240 Speaker 2: few franchises, but for a period there they were amongst 1077 00:55:58,280 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 2: the NFL's elite. 1078 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,600 Speaker 1: It's interesting because you mentioned the forty nine ers and 1079 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: the revelry and the respect and hallowed grounds. Because of 1080 00:56:07,040 --> 00:56:10,000 Speaker 1: all of the mess with Washington, I don't think we 1081 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 1: celebrate any of that mystery at all, because you can't 1082 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: do it without talking about what it became. Yes, right, 1083 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,640 Speaker 1: Joe Gibbs, the Hogs, all of those things, all those 1084 00:56:20,680 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 1: great players that you just kind of have to push 1085 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,880 Speaker 1: to the wayside because of what came out in the 1086 00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:27,680 Speaker 1: wash since Snyder took over. 1087 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,520 Speaker 2: Mm hmm, yeah, you're you're one hundred percent right. 1088 00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:33,960 Speaker 1: So we watch more Bill Parcells and Phil Simms footage 1089 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:40,759 Speaker 1: and every opportunity to grab any player that circled Montana 1090 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:41,560 Speaker 1: Young and Rice. 1091 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they probably wanted you to pay for some 1092 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:49,840 Speaker 2: of that footage. We can't look back now, all the 1093 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 2: different highlight package we got to pay. 1094 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: Snyder he wants he blocked it in a vault down there.

But 1134 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,640 Speaker 1: you've got Lamar out there, no offers that we're aware 1135 00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,919 Speaker 1: of that Baltimore has had to come back and match 1136 00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 1: or even discuss at this point. But you've got Rogers, 1137 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 1: Joe Douglas in front of the drunken Throng promising that 1138 00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 1: he's going to be here, Rogers saying my intent to 1139 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,680 Speaker 1: play for the Jets a couple of weeks ago. All 1140 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:25,160 Speaker 1: of that out there, and one of the wild cards 1141 00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 1: in this whole scenario Dan has always been would Dan 1142 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,240 Speaker 1: Snyder be the guy to upset the apple cart on 1143 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 1: either of those guys? For Jackson, it seemed like the obvious. 1144 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:41,720 Speaker 1: Keep him in the belt way there and make all 1145 00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:46,080 Speaker 1: the other owners squirm as you exit stage right right. 1146 00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 1: I gave him a fully guaranteed good luck with that. 1147 00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,280 Speaker 2: Then, yeah, then you're gonna have some issues, really you 1148 00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 2: know in terms of if I mean, I don't know 1149 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 2: what you could do if you're in the process of 1150 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 2: selling a team and then try to make such a 1151 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,200 Speaker 2: move like that for a new owner, you would need 1152 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 2: at least some sort of some sort of okay with it. 1153 01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 1: Oh, don't we get to a rounding error at this point. 1154 01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 1: What's we're talking in the sixths? 1155 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:13,000 Speaker 2: That's fair enough, fair enough. However, I do think that 1156 01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 2: the conversation is different, you know. And one of the 1157 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 2: reasons why you look at the Lamar Jackson situation, and 1158 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 2: if you were Washington under new ownership and you try 1159 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 2: to make a splash, you want to come in with 1160 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:32,080 Speaker 2: a positive, you know, a positive entry into the NFL. 1161 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 2: And I don't think giving up two first round picks 1162 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 2: and then signing Lamar Jackson to that monster deal that 1163 01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 2: he wants. Not only do the teams not want to 1164 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,160 Speaker 2: do it, all of those who thought we thought could 1165 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:52,439 Speaker 2: be interested in a Jackson, you know, arrival in their 1166 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,520 Speaker 2: city put out, you know, right away, when he was tagged. 1167 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:58,320 Speaker 2: They aren't interested. They aren't interested. I don't see a 1168 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 2: fan base that would say, all right, we just got 1169 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:08,520 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson and we completely guaranteed his contract for you know, 1170 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,919 Speaker 2: whatever two hundred million dollars that he wants. I don't 1171 01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:14,680 Speaker 2: see any team that would be like, all right, that's 1172 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:16,960 Speaker 2: a that's a shot in the arm to us. And 1173 01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 2: so the Rogers deal though, is different because I think Rogers, 1174 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 2: even though the compensation may not be the same, you're 1175 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 2: not on the hook long term and you're feeling like, 1176 01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 2: all right, right now we've got our guy. And in 1177 01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 2: Washington's case, with the weapons, you know, it's a different 1178 01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 2: feel Like if you were to if you were Washington 1179 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 2: and you got into the Aaron Rodgers sweepstakes, I think 1180 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 2: you could get a deal done. And if you were 1181 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:45,720 Speaker 2: new ownership, I would, I would, I would try to 1182 01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:48,280 Speaker 2: pursue that. I would look down that road if you 1183 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 2: buy the Washington Commanders and Aaron Rodgers is still a 1184 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:52,080 Speaker 2: Green Bay Packer. 1185 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:54,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, we certainly. We had Ron Rivera coming out talking 1186 01:01:54,440 --> 01:01:56,920 Speaker 1: about how the air in the building right there's a 1187 01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 1: different feel and all that. But I think for both 1188 01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 1: like that's the one fan base where right now it's 1189 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 1: all positive. And with the sale, I don't know that 1190 01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:08,360 Speaker 1: you need to go any further. Like you got Dan 1191 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 1: Snyder out, fan base is gonna be excited if you 1192 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 1: came over the top with one of these quarterbacks. And again, 1193 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 1: the Rogers thing is tricky, and I think that's where 1194 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:19,280 Speaker 1: the hold up is with the Jets, is you're fighting 1195 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 1: over that second year of the potential of him just 1196 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: saying I'm done. Not that he's suddenly going to be 1197 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 1: a stiff, but legitimately he may go off on another 1198 01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 1: retreat and say beat it. Right. We had the reports 1199 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: that Woody Johnson was very excited until he heard the Hey, 1200 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 1: I was ninety percent retired. Bit sure, because if you're 1201 01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:42,120 Speaker 1: gonna have to give up compensation over the next couple 1202 01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 1: of years whatever it is, both monetarily and draft picks 1203 01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 1: that and then this guy just walks away after a year. 1204 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:56,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that I understand. Listen, I understand being timid about 1205 01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:59,280 Speaker 2: that with that comment. But you also have to look 1206 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:02,520 Speaker 2: at it as in a way of Rogers wanted to 1207 01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 2: retire and then now he wants to be a member 1208 01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 2: of the New York Jets. 1209 01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 1: What's revenge? 1210 01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 2: Yes? And has that has that with him? And too, 1211 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:16,480 Speaker 2: you know, beggars can't be choosers. And where you are 1212 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 2: as a franchise, where you are with the Jets right now, like, 1213 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:24,320 Speaker 2: this is their opportunity. So to have that assurance, I 1214 01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 2: Rogers is either going to work out or he's not 1215 01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 2: going to work out. And so your safety net that 1216 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:33,520 Speaker 2: you're trying to install or to get from Green Bay 1217 01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 2: to me is irrelevant because your deal is judged and 1218 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 2: whether Aaron Rodgers plays at an MVP level in twenty 1219 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 2: twenty three, that is what it is. And if he 1220 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:45,640 Speaker 2: goes and he plays one season and leads them to 1221 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 2: the playoffs, I know you've given up, you know, capital 1222 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,640 Speaker 2: at that point, but it's still going to be like, well, 1223 01:03:53,640 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 2: look at where Rogers took us, and honestly, if he 1224 01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 2: takes you to the playoffs, I would bet to say 1225 01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 2: that Aaron rod probably feels he's got another year in him. 1226 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:06,120 Speaker 2: Think about what transpired this year in Green Bay. That's 1227 01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 2: probably why Aaron Rodgers wanted to retire. You give him 1228 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 2: new life and a reason to come back, he'll come back. 1229 01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,920 Speaker 2: That's I think what he Johnson needs to realize. 1230 01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 1: You know, it would have been great if he'd showed 1231 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:21,160 Speaker 1: up for offseason workouts with a bunch of rookie receivers around, 1232 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,560 Speaker 1: because those final six weeks of the season might have 1233 01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 1: happened in the middle six weeks of the season. Sure 1234 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 1: weren't playing for your playoff lives in week eighteen. Yeah, 1235 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 1: but you know, hindsight being twenty twenty, you know they 1236 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 1: took their and built their sandcastles and fortresses against each other. 1237 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:43,040 Speaker 1: He went off and walking, and it's just the bad 1238 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 1: narrative that has trailed all of this is how Green 1239 01:04:47,280 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 1: Bay had never gotten him weapons or gone and done 1240 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: anything likewise with Lamar Jackson, like Dacosta's picked poorly time 1241 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 1: and time again. But they've brought in assets to try 1242 01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 1: to do that. And that's to say Rashad Bateman can't 1243 01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:03,960 Speaker 1: become a good player because he may be listening right 1244 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 1: now and blocking me on Twitter and going after me like, hey, DaCosta, 1245 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 1: look at us that they fired their trainer, so maybe 1246 01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: there was something going on there as well. But they've 1247 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 1: they've gotten assets. It just hasn't worked right. It's like 1248 01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 1: the Cubs for all those years growing up, people would 1249 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:22,919 Speaker 1: be like, well they're so awful. It's like why don't 1250 01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:24,720 Speaker 1: they do this, Like go look at what they were 1251 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:27,320 Speaker 1: spending on a yearly basis, But they were bringing in 1252 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 1: guys who were good five years prior and banking on 1253 01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 1: the name to keep the local folks when it wasn't 1254 01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 1: the outdoor bar and tourist attraction it is now butts 1255 01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 1: in seats because you had familiar names for the Packers. Yeah, 1256 01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 1: just because you didn't have the first round sticker on 1257 01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 1: a guy didn't mean they didn't go and find and 1258 01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:51,440 Speaker 1: draft and evaluate talent at the position. And I'm sorry 1259 01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 1: you're in Green Bay. When it comes to free agency, 1260 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:55,439 Speaker 1: there's got to be an over cell. 1261 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 2: Well, I you know, I just find I find the 1262 01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:03,280 Speaker 2: you know, the Rogers situation and the Lamar situation and 1263 01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 2: where they come in to whatever organization it is to 1264 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 2: be just completely the opposite. And you know, and if 1265 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:10,840 Speaker 2: you're sitting here, just yeah, to go back to the 1266 01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:14,280 Speaker 2: Commander's point. If you're looking to make a splash and 1267 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:16,600 Speaker 2: Roger's still available, I say, go do it. I just 1268 01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:19,240 Speaker 2: don't think the Lamar Jackson is that splash, even though 1269 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,600 Speaker 2: he's you know, just from down the road in Baltimore. 1270 01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:25,040 Speaker 2: I think they probably know, you know, in terms of 1271 01:06:26,240 --> 01:06:28,160 Speaker 2: they know all the reasons why Baltimore is not giving 1272 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:29,800 Speaker 2: him the money. So then they're like, why would we 1273 01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 2: do it and give up two first round picks doesn't 1274 01:06:32,320 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 2: make any sense. 1275 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 1: No, And this is where you start playing the game 1276 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 1: of poker. As to when you get back to it, 1277 01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 1: I think we've been talking about this a while. I've 1278 01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:45,479 Speaker 1: long believed he was going to end up raving again 1279 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:49,240 Speaker 1: for a year. Whether they get a long term deal done, 1280 01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:52,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. But when push comes to shove, you're 1281 01:06:52,280 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 1: not leaving thirty two million dollars on the table. Right, 1282 01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: we talked about quarterback deals and what they once were 1283 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:02,760 Speaker 1: and how they would hamstring your franchise. Right, you were 1284 01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:07,080 Speaker 1: pot committed when you gave Sam Bradford a giant novelty check. 1285 01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:09,760 Speaker 1: You don't have that anymore. Right, You've got the fifth 1286 01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:14,120 Speaker 1: year options. You're not hamstrung by this massive cap number 1287 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 1: until you commit to contract number two. So you know 1288 01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 1: to come back to it. You're you're looking at an opportunity. 1289 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,520 Speaker 1: And Lamar Jackson is not that he hasn't made money, 1290 01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:28,000 Speaker 1: but he hasn't made real money when we talk about 1291 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: NFL quarterbacks. So you're not going to say, hey, I'm 1292 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 1: going to hold out because there's always there's still questions 1293 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 1: about your health. Everybody's saying he's going to hold out 1294 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:38,640 Speaker 1: and hold the Ravens to it, like, I don't buy 1295 01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 1: it for a minute. 1296 01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 2: You know, every player would like a fully guaranteed contract, right, 1297 01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 2: how much does Lamar Jackson think that another contract is 1298 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:54,160 Speaker 2: not coming on the heels of it? Like that's you know? 1299 01:07:54,240 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 2: And why does Lamar Jackson want a fully guaranteed contract 1300 01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 2: Because if he gets injured, he wants all of his money, 1301 01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:10,440 Speaker 2: or if he fails to live up to expectations, he 1302 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 2: wants all of his money. Like that's and I get 1303 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 2: that any athlete would do that, But in the quarterback 1304 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:20,720 Speaker 2: position in the NFL, where you are and how you 1305 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:25,680 Speaker 2: play sometimes is even irrelevant for getting another contract. And 1306 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:28,280 Speaker 2: there would be another contract on the back side of 1307 01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 2: this contract, right, So in essence, this may not be 1308 01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:39,760 Speaker 2: fair to Lamar. But like Russell Wilson knew he was 1309 01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,840 Speaker 2: going to get paid again, like you know rookie deal, 1310 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:46,680 Speaker 2: sign his deal with the Seahawks that then expired, then 1311 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:51,679 Speaker 2: he wanted fifty million dollars. So this is his third contract, Lamar, 1312 01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:56,360 Speaker 2: does Lamar Jackson want the fully guaranteed second contract because 1313 01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:58,720 Speaker 2: he's not sure there's going to be a third? Like 1314 01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 2: that's it? Or is it just because Kyler got his 1315 01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 2: and Deshaun Watson got his. Is that the only reason it's. 1316 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 1: A bit of both. But I think your point is 1317 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 1: completely valid when you're talking about a guy who's already 1318 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 1: missed a couple of giant chunks of seasons and wasn't 1319 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:16,400 Speaker 1: available to the end of this one and had his 1320 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 1: toughness his ability to play through, and the contract became 1321 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:23,439 Speaker 1: a thing he had to come back and go no, no, no, 1322 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:26,719 Speaker 1: my knee was really hurt. Yeah, I promise you it 1323 01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:31,439 Speaker 1: wasn't my contract. But the perception is there, and history 1324 01:09:31,479 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 1: has shown the style of play, and it doesn't matter 1325 01:09:34,400 --> 01:09:36,400 Speaker 1: what the Giants did, because people always be like, look 1326 01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 1: what the Bills did, Look what the Giants did, Look 1327 01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:42,160 Speaker 1: what the Cardinals did. Like, those are isolated teams made 1328 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:45,960 Speaker 1: their decisions based on personnel, and they decided. The Ravens 1329 01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:48,080 Speaker 1: decided to draw a line in the sand. And it 1330 01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that they won't go higher than whatever that 1331 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:52,280 Speaker 1: three for one p. Thirty three is. They're just not 1332 01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 1: going to Deshaun Watson. A million dollars is a pretty 1333 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:58,920 Speaker 1: damn big gap you have to figure out, and clearly 1334 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:02,599 Speaker 1: the marketplace is spoken that nobody's going to that high end, 1335 01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:05,960 Speaker 1: or they're playing the game of poker that eventually there's 1336 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 1: got to be a late deal broker, sign trade, what 1337 01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:12,880 Speaker 1: have you, so they don't give up the farm and 1338 01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 1: the two hundred plus million names. 1339 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:17,759 Speaker 2: I think. I think Lamar Jackson probably as similar concerns 1340 01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:21,880 Speaker 2: to his career as the Baltimore Ravens do uh at 1341 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:25,160 Speaker 2: his career. That's why he wants it guaranteed. That's why 1342 01:10:25,200 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 2: the Ravens are like, all right, no, we're not gonna. 1343 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 1: We'll do the short term, right because he said he 1344 01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:32,280 Speaker 1: had that three for one thirty three. Yeah, but that's 1345 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:33,439 Speaker 1: no longer on the table. 1346 01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 2: Hey. 1347 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 1: Brought to you by Progressive Insurance. 1348 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:35,559 Speaker 2: That's right. 1349 01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,240 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday brought to you by Progressive Insurance.

Dan, We've got the 1567 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:17,439 Speaker 1: NBA playoffs. We'll get it back into those in earnest 1568 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:21,520 Speaker 1: in about twenty minutes. But the NFL Draft rapidly approaching 1569 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:26,280 Speaker 1: and a lot of drama, speculation, wild odds swings over 1570 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 1: what happens with the number one pick. But beyond that, 1571 01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:31,840 Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm feeling the weight. And I 1572 01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:34,200 Speaker 1: say that even though we're starting to see the and 1573 01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 1: hear the commercials for our draft coverage with you know, 1574 01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:41,840 Speaker 1: mister perfect, Jay Glazer and company, that it doesn't feel 1575 01:22:41,840 --> 01:22:42,679 Speaker 1: like it has the weight. 1576 01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:47,200 Speaker 2: Well, I think the the reason why this topic is 1577 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 2: of importance is twofold is number one. The NFL is 1578 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 2: just so dominant with so many things, Like I think 1579 01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 2: that there's now, like you know, in our business, Mike, 1580 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:04,479 Speaker 2: when the Super Bowl ends, you're immediately into getting ready 1581 01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:08,320 Speaker 2: for the draft, free agency, there are roster decisions that 1582 01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:10,640 Speaker 2: have to be made. Then you're into March, and so 1583 01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:14,559 Speaker 2: it's it's combine, it's all of what I just mentioned, 1584 01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:17,240 Speaker 2: possible trade, and then we get closer to the draft. 1585 01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:21,679 Speaker 2: It's like we're still talking NFL. Maybe not as much 1586 01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:24,760 Speaker 2: as we are in the season, however, it is still 1587 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:27,280 Speaker 2: on the minds of so many. But when you look 1588 01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:31,639 Speaker 2: at this draft class with the quarterbacks and the number 1589 01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:35,240 Speaker 2: of quarterbacks and the possible moving and shaking that you 1590 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:38,240 Speaker 2: could see, it gives all of the elements for what 1591 01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:41,599 Speaker 2: should be a great draft coming up now in less 1592 01:23:41,640 --> 01:23:45,120 Speaker 2: than two weeks. But I don't think it is matching 1593 01:23:45,200 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 2: the hype of what we had in twenty eighteen, when 1594 01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:52,519 Speaker 2: you had Baker Mayfield, when you had Sam Darnold and 1595 01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:56,840 Speaker 2: Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson and honestly Saquon Barkley in 1596 01:23:56,880 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 2: that draft class. And I don't know, I just feel 1597 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 2: that it's the NFL is obviously being talked about. That 1598 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 2: is not what I'm saying at all, because you can't 1599 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 2: turn on a network without a mock draft or someone 1600 01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 2: talking about what's happening going on in the NFL. I 1601 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:16,320 Speaker 2: just think the buzz of this draft, where it seemingly 1602 01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:19,559 Speaker 2: has all the pieces, is not as exciting as the 1603 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:21,920 Speaker 2: one that we had five years ago. And I don't 1604 01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:24,320 Speaker 2: know if it's because of the prospects. I don't know 1605 01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:26,640 Speaker 2: if it's because of the teams that are picking and 1606 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:30,240 Speaker 2: who is picking where, but it just doesn't seem like 1607 01:24:30,439 --> 01:24:34,439 Speaker 2: it is. It seems like we're all looking forward to it. 1608 01:24:34,760 --> 01:24:37,720 Speaker 2: But I don't think it just has that energy that 1609 01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:40,320 Speaker 2: we saw five years ago when you had all of 1610 01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:42,720 Speaker 2: those names in the NFL draft. 1611 01:24:42,800 --> 01:24:44,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there's a couple of things to it. 1612 01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:46,640 Speaker 1: And part of it is and we've done this with 1613 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:50,680 Speaker 1: the NBA forever where we'll get to say the All 1614 01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:52,840 Speaker 1: Star break, which is now two thirds of the way 1615 01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:55,760 Speaker 1: through the season, and we're already talking about next year, 1616 01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 1: this guy's going to be a free agent. This guy 1617 01:24:58,160 --> 01:25:00,799 Speaker 1: may opt out, this guy may do this. In the NFL, 1618 01:25:00,840 --> 01:25:04,519 Speaker 1: we're starting to get into that kind of conversation about 1619 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:08,799 Speaker 1: free agency. Who may decide to leave because they're unhappy 1620 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,680 Speaker 1: with the situation where something's been festering. We saw it 1621 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:14,639 Speaker 1: with Russell Wilson. We still see it with Aaron Rodgers. 1622 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,880 Speaker 1: And to that point, I bring Rogers in because the 1623 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:23,200 Speaker 1: Rogers Lamar Jackson, Daniel Snyder stories kind of dwarf everything else. Right, 1624 01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:25,640 Speaker 1: They've sucked a lot of the oxygen sure out of 1625 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:29,400 Speaker 1: the room, right because because they also potentially muck up 1626 01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:32,080 Speaker 1: what's going on in the draft, right, particularly when you 1627 01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,280 Speaker 1: look at Lamar Jackson. Right, if a team goes and 1628 01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:37,320 Speaker 1: makes a move for him, now, well suddenly that fourth 1629 01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,240 Speaker 1: pick goes and gets or eighth pick or whatever it 1630 01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 1: might be, gets transferred out. So suddenly we're jumbling the 1631 01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:49,400 Speaker 1: playing table, right, Because we had those rumors a couple 1632 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:51,720 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, and certainly it was a theory that 1633 01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:55,160 Speaker 1: I proffered early on, was if I'm one of those teams, 1634 01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:56,880 Speaker 1: I want that pick and then I want to go 1635 01:25:56,920 --> 01:26:00,000 Speaker 1: get Lamar Jackson after Right, So I get a player, 1636 01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:02,840 Speaker 1: and I get Lamar Jackson. I don't want to give 1637 01:26:02,920 --> 01:26:05,400 Speaker 1: up because if Lamar Jackson does what he's supposed to, 1638 01:26:06,120 --> 01:26:09,479 Speaker 1: then those first round picks in subsequent years are late 1639 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 1: first round picks. And I also got my defender alignment 1640 01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:14,439 Speaker 1: or whatever else I needed. 1641 01:26:14,640 --> 01:26:17,200 Speaker 2: It is dangerous, though, to try to trust me as 1642 01:26:17,280 --> 01:26:19,599 Speaker 2: someone who's a fan of a team that acquired Jamal 1643 01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:22,960 Speaker 2: Adams after the NFL Draft, like you were paying that 1644 01:26:23,120 --> 01:26:26,639 Speaker 2: debt longer, like that was like a student loan debt, 1645 01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:29,400 Speaker 2: Like it felt like like we still are paying for this. 1646 01:26:29,960 --> 01:26:33,599 Speaker 2: Wait a second, I'm done with school, Like then you. 1647 01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:36,040 Speaker 1: Forgot all about it because Gino Smith was a start 1648 01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:38,640 Speaker 1: that hey, you. 1649 01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:42,000 Speaker 2: Know, and and the half that Jamal Adams played in 1650 01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:46,560 Speaker 2: that season that the Seahawks just had no disrespect to 1651 01:26:46,600 --> 01:26:49,000 Speaker 2: Jamal Adams. It's just the fact the timing of that deal, 1652 01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:52,400 Speaker 2: which would have been much better for the Seahawks prior 1653 01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:55,000 Speaker 2: to the draft than doing it after, which is also 1654 01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 2: why I think that the Jets need to get this 1655 01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:03,040 Speaker 2: Rogers deal done to include something in this year's draft, 1656 01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:04,559 Speaker 2: like you don't want to be paying for it down 1657 01:27:04,560 --> 01:27:07,480 Speaker 2: the road, and especially if Woody Johnson has his concerns. 1658 01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:11,160 Speaker 2: But back to the point, I just would you look, 1659 01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 2: and I think you're right. I think the Rogers and 1660 01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 2: Lamar stuff is taken some of the air out. But 1661 01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:23,360 Speaker 2: I also think that those that a draft can stand 1662 01:27:23,520 --> 01:27:27,800 Speaker 2: on its own in terms of the excitement. And I 1663 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:31,920 Speaker 2: just think, and I hate doing this to teams because 1664 01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:34,920 Speaker 2: a lot of my teams aren't the marquee brands, but 1665 01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:38,559 Speaker 2: that twenty eighteen drafts had the Browns picking twice in 1666 01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,840 Speaker 2: the top four, and then you had the Jets and Giants, 1667 01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:44,840 Speaker 2: and Giants picked two, Jets pick three, and then you 1668 01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 2: had Denver picking five. You know, here we have the Panthers, Texans, Cardinals, 1669 01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:55,439 Speaker 2: and Colts in the top four, all of which are 1670 01:27:55,439 --> 01:28:01,439 Speaker 2: a mess. Yes, And I would say markets and fan 1671 01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:07,479 Speaker 2: bases that are not as wide ranging as the three 1672 01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 2: or four that I just mentioned, Like, you know, the 1673 01:28:10,160 --> 01:28:12,599 Speaker 2: Browns of the Bronze, but Man of the Brons an 1674 01:28:12,640 --> 01:28:15,400 Speaker 2: amazing soap opera to watch. Sure they have been for 1675 01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 2: a decade. I think it maybe could have been a 1676 01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:22,040 Speaker 2: little different if your Bears would have been on top, 1677 01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:26,120 Speaker 2: maybe stayed on top, a little differ different change. I 1678 01:28:26,160 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 2: think they have a little bit more Cachet than the 1679 01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:31,800 Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers, especially if it was the narrative of the 1680 01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 2: Bears trying to find that franchise quarterback. But they're gonna, well. 1681 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:37,559 Speaker 1: That's it, right, what are you doing with it? Right? 1682 01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:40,439 Speaker 1: Do you have that speculation all the way through? Ye 1683 01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 1: traded away? 1684 01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:44,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you knew the answer and it moved on. 1685 01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:48,120 Speaker 2: And so I think I think that that lends to 1686 01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:52,760 Speaker 2: some of this. And I also think that how we 1687 01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:58,639 Speaker 2: view these quarterbacks. I mean truly Josh Josh Allen narrative 1688 01:28:58,680 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 2: has played out, like we thought that this guy could 1689 01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:04,640 Speaker 2: be a super quarterback, this guy could be great. But 1690 01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:07,320 Speaker 2: we also think that about Anthony Richardson, Like there is 1691 01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:12,400 Speaker 2: this big question about like who this guy is. Is 1692 01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:15,719 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield the Bryce Young? Well if that's the case, 1693 01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:21,200 Speaker 2: then Baker had more pizzazz then there was there was 1694 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:26,960 Speaker 2: more star power to this device. Yes, if Sam Donald's 1695 01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:29,599 Speaker 2: the CJ. Stroud And I'm not talking about how they play, 1696 01:29:29,680 --> 01:29:31,839 Speaker 2: but just of how we're comparing them in their roles. 1697 01:29:32,720 --> 01:29:35,200 Speaker 2: Now I see why it's you know, not living up 1698 01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:38,680 Speaker 2: to the twenty eighteen high because they don't match. Now, 1699 01:29:38,840 --> 01:29:42,559 Speaker 2: c J. Stroud very well could have a better career 1700 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:45,679 Speaker 2: than Sam Donald in the NFL. I expect CJ. Stroud 1701 01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:48,160 Speaker 2: to have a better career in the NFL, But that 1702 01:29:48,200 --> 01:29:51,680 Speaker 2: doesn't change the fact that this draft, with all of 1703 01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:54,400 Speaker 2: the pieces that are in it, I still don't think 1704 01:29:54,439 --> 01:29:57,320 Speaker 2: it has got that buzz as we always use as 1705 01:29:57,360 --> 01:29:58,360 Speaker 2: they did five years ago. 1706 01:29:58,680 --> 01:30:01,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think when it comes down to it and 1707 01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:04,040 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold's leading the forty nine ers to the NFC 1708 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:07,400 Speaker 1: title game because the other guys are all hurt, I 1709 01:30:07,400 --> 01:30:10,400 Speaker 1: think that narrative is there in a hurry. 1710 01:30:10,240 --> 01:30:12,719 Speaker 2: You do you? Also, I think that this could play 1711 01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:17,640 Speaker 2: play into the affected maybe because of how volatile like 1712 01:30:17,720 --> 01:30:21,400 Speaker 2: the the early picks in twenty eighteen haven't panned out, 1713 01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:23,240 Speaker 2: so it's more of a story like as we look 1714 01:30:23,320 --> 01:30:24,840 Speaker 2: back on it now. But I still think at the 1715 01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:28,680 Speaker 2: time there there was a lot going on with that 1716 01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:31,639 Speaker 2: draft and a lot of excitement with that draft. I've said, 1717 01:30:31,680 --> 01:30:33,840 Speaker 2: I think how people are putting a cap on how 1718 01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:37,880 Speaker 2: good Bryce Young and really how good CJ. Stroud could 1719 01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:41,519 Speaker 2: be are also reasons for it, Like I think that 1720 01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:45,880 Speaker 2: the only home run people think is Anthony Richardson and 1721 01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,760 Speaker 2: hopefully Bryce Young and CJ. Stroud can turn into Pro 1722 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:54,240 Speaker 2: Bowl caliber quarterbacks. That's the sense. That's the messaging that 1723 01:30:54,360 --> 01:31:00,080 Speaker 2: I'm getting in breaking down this draft that for his 1724 01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:02,720 Speaker 2: greatest Bryce Young is in him going number one. There's 1725 01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:06,880 Speaker 2: still such a concern about his heightened body, you know, 1726 01:31:07,080 --> 01:31:11,200 Speaker 2: frame that you're wondering on how successful can he be 1727 01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:11,799 Speaker 2: in the NFL. 1728 01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:14,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think some of it also comes back to 1729 01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 1: your point about media markets. It's also you know, who's 1730 01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:20,960 Speaker 1: doing the selling right for the Giants and for the 1731 01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:26,200 Speaker 1: Jets monumental picks because in our world, how many guys 1732 01:31:26,200 --> 01:31:29,120 Speaker 1: that work in our business are Giants and Jets fans 1733 01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:30,880 Speaker 1: New York. I may look at look who I work 1734 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:34,720 Speaker 1: with on a nightly basons anything the Jets do, I've 1735 01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:37,400 Speaker 1: got to try to beat him off with a stick 1736 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:43,479 Speaker 1: to just say stop. But it's that kind of thing 1737 01:31:43,520 --> 01:31:47,320 Speaker 1: that you flow through and with the Bears if they'd 1738 01:31:47,320 --> 01:31:50,400 Speaker 1: been number one, because the woe is Meek quarterback, plus 1739 01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:53,920 Speaker 1: the potential that Jordan Love takes over in Green Bay, 1740 01:31:54,280 --> 01:31:56,519 Speaker 1: are the Bears that now position blah blah blah, what 1741 01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:59,599 Speaker 1: does Justin Fields do? Like all of those storylines because 1742 01:31:59,600 --> 01:32:05,320 Speaker 1: of the hower of the the coophony of sports rated 1743 01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:08,280 Speaker 1: loudness jeez, loudness. 1744 01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:12,040 Speaker 2: I need a spelling of that one that was. 1745 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:16,880 Speaker 1: It's just loud, loud and loud noisy, and you try 1746 01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:20,360 Speaker 1: to pick what's reality from the crowd. And that's what 1747 01:32:20,439 --> 01:32:24,879 Speaker 1: happens in these big marketplaces, whereas in Carolina, in Houston 1748 01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:28,720 Speaker 1: and in Arizona, it's more about the dysfunction and what 1749 01:32:28,840 --> 01:32:31,120 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that though, A right Steve Kaim is 1750 01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:33,080 Speaker 1: going to be part of our draft coverage here with 1751 01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:37,519 Speaker 1: Jay Glazer, uh Rob Stone and LaVar Arrington, and he'll 1752 01:32:37,560 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 1: he'll be able to speak to what's going on in 1753 01:32:39,960 --> 01:32:42,760 Speaker 1: that building and with those individual players. But they're going 1754 01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:44,800 Speaker 1: to point right now, Buddha Baker the latest guy to 1755 01:32:44,800 --> 01:32:47,719 Speaker 1: say I want out right, So Kyler's got his money, 1756 01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 1: and then you're trying DeAndre Hopkins either does or doesn't 1757 01:32:51,200 --> 01:32:54,160 Speaker 1: want to be traded. Lamar Jackson may or may not 1758 01:32:54,240 --> 01:32:56,000 Speaker 1: have said, Hey, how we need him in Baltimore If 1759 01:32:56,040 --> 01:32:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm coming back, like all of these things and you've 1760 01:32:59,200 --> 01:33:02,839 Speaker 1: got those are storylines beyond what happens in the draft. 1761 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:08,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, very very very fair. I also just 1762 01:33:08,280 --> 01:33:14,400 Speaker 2: I just even think of I just think may I 1763 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 2: think that Sam Donald and Baker Mayfield were bigger stars 1764 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:21,479 Speaker 2: in college than C. J. Stroud and Bryce youngmore and 1765 01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:24,400 Speaker 2: that helps as well. That really I mean. 1766 01:33:24,720 --> 01:33:27,559 Speaker 1: Well, Donald had that run with USC that everybody got 1767 01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,640 Speaker 1: excited about, and then Baker. Everybody had to have an 1768 01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:31,639 Speaker 1: opinion about Baker. 1769 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:32,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1770 01:33:32,439 --> 01:33:34,160 Speaker 1: It wasn't just he was a good player, it was 1771 01:33:34,360 --> 01:33:35,719 Speaker 1: he was a brash guy. 1772 01:33:35,880 --> 01:33:38,839 Speaker 2: And it's crazy to think of when you're talking about 1773 01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:42,840 Speaker 2: two guys who went to Alabama and Ohio State of 1774 01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:47,840 Speaker 2: not generating the buzz in terms of a draft. You know, 1775 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:50,240 Speaker 2: That's that's why you can't use the USC Oklahoma thing 1776 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:53,200 Speaker 2: because you know, I don't know two brands bigger than 1777 01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:56,799 Speaker 2: Alabama and Ohio State. But there is a tangible difference 1778 01:33:56,800 --> 01:33:59,240 Speaker 2: when you're talking about the two prospects and how we 1779 01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:01,920 Speaker 2: viewed them and what we thought, you know, they could be. 1780 01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:07,679 Speaker 2: You know, I mean Baker was such a on field show, 1781 01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:09,439 Speaker 2: good or bad? Right? 1782 01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:11,960 Speaker 1: You know that with Alabama and Ohio State, does it 1783 01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:15,320 Speaker 1: do you think the history of quarterbacks and I think 1784 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:16,240 Speaker 1: a dack of success. 1785 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:18,479 Speaker 2: I think it does for Ohio State. I really think 1786 01:34:18,479 --> 01:34:20,160 Speaker 2: it does. And I don't think it's fair. I don't 1787 01:34:20,200 --> 01:34:23,600 Speaker 2: think it's fair at all. And I mean, you know, 1788 01:34:24,080 --> 01:34:29,280 Speaker 2: c J. Stroud made throws look so easy that you 1789 01:34:29,439 --> 01:34:33,559 Speaker 2: just you know, they're not even considered They're not a mike, 1790 01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:36,200 Speaker 2: they're not considered a strength because he makes them look 1791 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:38,800 Speaker 2: so normal. And it's not to say that c J. 1792 01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:42,360 Speaker 2: Stroud is the perfect quarterback, but I think you also 1793 01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:45,240 Speaker 2: saw c J. Stroud make gains throughout the year and 1794 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,519 Speaker 2: even become a more mobile quarterback. There was no threat 1795 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:51,880 Speaker 2: to run from c J. Stroud. Uh his you know, 1796 01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:56,040 Speaker 2: first sixty percent of games in Columbus. But you know 1797 01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:58,480 Speaker 2: that added to it. But I do think that the 1798 01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:01,960 Speaker 2: the story of the ohi Io state quarterback. And truly 1799 01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:05,240 Speaker 2: it's fair with Alabama as well. You know, you look 1800 01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:08,120 Speaker 2: at their history. You know Tua and you know mac Jones. 1801 01:35:08,160 --> 01:35:12,479 Speaker 2: Now you know Jalen hurts in a way trying to 1802 01:35:12,600 --> 01:35:16,280 Speaker 2: change that narrative. But yeah, I think I think some 1803 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:17,639 Speaker 2: of that could definitely plan. 1804 01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:20,679 Speaker 1: And then you start adding defenders and trying to figure 1805 01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:25,160 Speaker 1: out Jalen Carter's value and and start going down the line. Skorronsky, 1806 01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:28,680 Speaker 1: you know what what team goes offensive line? Earlier? I 1807 01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:30,040 Speaker 1: don't often get to talk about North. 1808 01:35:30,160 --> 01:35:32,559 Speaker 2: I knew that was there for a reason. 1809 01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:35,439 Speaker 1: Hey, you know what it is.

We'll talk about it next on Fox 1852 01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:35,280 Speaker 1: Welcome back in It's Fox Sports Radios. Fox Sports Sunday 1853 01:37:35,320 --> 01:37:38,400 Speaker 1: Live from the tire Raq dot Com Studios by Karma 1854 01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:41,120 Speaker 1: Dan Byer with you here as we turn our attention 1855 01:37:41,200 --> 01:37:45,599 Speaker 1: to the National Basketball Association Big Game later on today. 1856 01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:49,639 Speaker 1: A favorite in the series from the Betting Odds Dan 1857 01:37:49,720 --> 01:37:54,120 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Lakers taking on the Memphis Grizzlies. Grizzlies 1858 01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:56,960 Speaker 1: the team that you either are full on in of 1859 01:37:57,320 --> 01:38:00,960 Speaker 1: how they conduct themselves on the core, and by that 1860 01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:04,600 Speaker 1: I mean the braggadocious kind of level even though you 1861 01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:07,320 Speaker 1: haven't won anything, which I think rubs some people the 1862 01:38:07,360 --> 01:38:09,760 Speaker 1: wrong way. But you know, they always say act like 1863 01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:11,920 Speaker 1: you've been there, so they do that a bit along 1864 01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:15,160 Speaker 1: the way. The Jahn morant off the court issues that 1865 01:38:15,479 --> 01:38:18,880 Speaker 1: have trailed them for the entirety of the season. You 1866 01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:21,040 Speaker 1: got a guy like Dylan Brooks, who some folks have 1867 01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:23,840 Speaker 1: a liking problem, and you go on down the line. 1868 01:38:23,880 --> 01:38:27,920 Speaker 1: Meanwhile the Lakers suddenly everybody's darling and everybody looking for 1869 01:38:28,240 --> 01:38:30,800 Speaker 1: that Lebron James love one more time. 1870 01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:33,720 Speaker 2: It's funny because there's like this, I don't know if 1871 01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:38,200 Speaker 2: a triangle of hate where the Grizzlies would try to 1872 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:41,880 Speaker 2: mix it up with the Warriors, but then the Grizzlies 1873 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:45,080 Speaker 2: would also chirp with the Suns. But yet the Sons 1874 01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:49,720 Speaker 2: and Devin Booker chirping with Clay Thompson and the Warriors. 1875 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:53,640 Speaker 2: But I do think that the Kings are not the 1876 01:38:53,680 --> 01:38:56,840 Speaker 2: Sacramento Kings. I should say the leaders in the clubhouse 1877 01:38:56,880 --> 01:39:00,479 Speaker 2: in terms of trying to find and make enemy are 1878 01:39:00,520 --> 01:39:03,040 Speaker 2: the Memphis Grizzlies, and they are a bit shorthanded. But 1879 01:39:03,680 --> 01:39:06,679 Speaker 2: I do think of Game one and just what's happened 1880 01:39:06,720 --> 01:39:10,679 Speaker 2: with the Lakers this week, momentum from the playing game 1881 01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:15,080 Speaker 2: I think is minimal. I think this could be a 1882 01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:20,519 Speaker 2: interesting series that goes the length that people feel that 1883 01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:22,479 Speaker 2: it's going to go. I just don't think it turns 1884 01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:25,519 Speaker 2: out that way. In Game one, I think Memphis rides 1885 01:39:25,560 --> 01:39:28,120 Speaker 2: a lot of energy, but at some point, I think 1886 01:39:28,160 --> 01:39:30,480 Speaker 2: some of this stuff does have to catch up with Memphis. 1887 01:39:31,320 --> 01:39:33,240 Speaker 2: I don't think that the NBA wants Memphis in the 1888 01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:36,160 Speaker 2: NBA Finals, at least not this year, because of all 1889 01:39:36,200 --> 01:39:38,040 Speaker 2: the Ja Morant stuff that's gone on. 1890 01:39:38,120 --> 01:39:40,160 Speaker 1: I was just saying, coming into the year, they would 1891 01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,439 Speaker 1: have been very excited. Yes, right, they were the team 1892 01:39:42,560 --> 01:39:45,519 Speaker 1: on the com Jahn Morant becoming one of the faces 1893 01:39:45,560 --> 01:39:48,320 Speaker 1: all the deals that he'd brokeer and now just a 1894 01:39:48,320 --> 01:39:52,519 Speaker 1: lot of speculation in question marks around the off court 1895 01:39:52,680 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 1: conduct and what it all means in the grand scheme. 1896 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,000 Speaker 2: I think that they would much much rather have maybe 1897 01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:00,920 Speaker 2: they'd rather have the Lakers win this series. I don't 1898 01:40:00,920 --> 01:40:03,439 Speaker 2: know it'll be something for us to watch. I like 1899 01:40:03,479 --> 01:40:05,160 Speaker 2: the Grizzlies today, but I do think that it could 1900 01:40:05,240 --> 01:40:08,719 Speaker 2: play out to be the maybe a little bit longer 1901 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:11,360 Speaker 2: series than what today may indicate. 1902 01:40:11,520 --> 01:40:14,639 Speaker 1: Well, we talk about the Lakers and the size right 1903 01:40:14,680 --> 01:40:18,559 Speaker 1: and willingness to bang in the low post, and Anthony 1904 01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:22,400 Speaker 1: Davis for all of the talk of fragility and for 1905 01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:27,160 Speaker 1: the history of his career, it's warranted. He's saddled up 1906 01:40:27,200 --> 01:40:29,760 Speaker 1: in all but two games now. One of them was 1907 01:40:29,840 --> 01:40:32,840 Speaker 1: the Curious one after a loss, but because it was 1908 01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:35,479 Speaker 1: already scheduled three weeks prior, It's like, this seems like 1909 01:40:35,520 --> 01:40:38,040 Speaker 1: a must win. But then you go through and I 1910 01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:41,000 Speaker 1: think it was Dennis Schreuder had done a thing two 1911 01:40:41,040 --> 01:40:42,960 Speaker 1: months ago. Yeah, I think we need to win nineteen 1912 01:40:43,000 --> 01:40:45,599 Speaker 1: of these games. Yet how many games they won? 1913 01:40:45,800 --> 01:40:47,120 Speaker 2: Nineteen exactly. 1914 01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:51,560 Speaker 1: I called it to the which goes back to the 1915 01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:54,360 Speaker 1: is it the Arian foster? Do they have the script 1916 01:40:54,640 --> 01:40:55,360 Speaker 1: win everything? 1917 01:40:55,680 --> 01:41:02,479 Speaker 2: When when loss loss? When when loss loss win loss 1918 01:41:03,320 --> 01:41:05,519 Speaker 2: that's how you break it down. Do you think that 1919 01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:09,880 Speaker 2: they picked losing to the Rockets on the second half 1920 01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:11,360 Speaker 2: of the back to back or do you think they 1921 01:41:11,439 --> 01:41:13,600 Speaker 2: just threw that in as a combo and we're like, 1922 01:41:13,600 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 2: we just need to win one of the two. 1923 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:16,960 Speaker 1: Well, I think you get everybody excitable if you lose 1924 01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:19,680 Speaker 1: to the Rockets, because then they jump off the bandwagon. 1925 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:23,640 Speaker 1: Or maybe that hate fuels you, maybe the hatred of 1926 01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:26,160 Speaker 1: losing to a Rockets team you know that was tanking. 1927 01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:29,400 Speaker 2: Adam Silver, are you buying the Lakers hype? 1928 01:41:30,439 --> 01:41:33,040 Speaker 1: I think they're fun, and I said it, I think 1929 01:41:33,080 --> 01:41:36,280 Speaker 1: with you and certainly with Smith is I like the 1930 01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:39,800 Speaker 1: iteration of the squad where Lebron wasn't on wasn't on 1931 01:41:39,840 --> 01:41:42,559 Speaker 1: the court. And I don't mean that like whenever you 1932 01:41:42,560 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 1: can get stars on the court, you want them. But 1933 01:41:45,720 --> 01:41:48,080 Speaker 1: there's a brand of basketball that I thought was pretty 1934 01:41:48,080 --> 01:41:51,839 Speaker 1: fun to watch, unselfish moving the ball, Anthony Davis stepping 1935 01:41:51,920 --> 01:41:55,800 Speaker 1: up at times. Statistically, it didn't always you didn't have 1936 01:41:55,840 --> 01:41:59,000 Speaker 1: to be the monster in the box score, but everybody 1937 01:41:59,040 --> 01:42:01,400 Speaker 1: got there. As Austin, You've suddenly became one hundred million 1938 01:42:01,439 --> 01:42:04,880 Speaker 1: dollar player. If you were to believe the hype between 1939 01:42:04,920 --> 01:42:09,240 Speaker 1: the social media and all the you know, gushing, flowing columns. 1940 01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:11,600 Speaker 2: You know, in saying everything with the Lakers, I go 1941 01:42:11,680 --> 01:42:16,639 Speaker 2: back to one thing, and it's I'll just say this 1942 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:19,800 Speaker 2: of the game in Boston that they should have won. 1943 01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:24,439 Speaker 2: And I think I think the Bucks are the best record, 1944 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:26,720 Speaker 2: Denver's the number one seed in the West, but I 1945 01:42:26,960 --> 01:42:29,840 Speaker 2: think Boston's the best team in the NBA. And to 1946 01:42:29,880 --> 01:42:32,639 Speaker 2: see all of the calls not go there their way 1947 01:42:32,680 --> 01:42:34,559 Speaker 2: that game, and I know it's a different team because 1948 01:42:34,600 --> 01:42:38,559 Speaker 2: Patrick Beverley was showing the ref the camera, yeah, you know, 1949 01:42:38,960 --> 01:42:43,479 Speaker 2: during that game. Above anything else, you know, that's what 1950 01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:47,360 Speaker 2: stands out to me of like, all right, the Lakers 1951 01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:50,599 Speaker 2: can do this. And it was you know, Saturday night 1952 01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:55,679 Speaker 2: Lakers Celtics National TV sort of game. So if anything 1953 01:42:56,680 --> 01:42:59,479 Speaker 2: that tells me, yeah, the Lakers may have something in them. However, 1954 01:42:59,560 --> 01:43:02,479 Speaker 2: what else, Oh, as they completely contradict myself and saying 1955 01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:04,840 Speaker 2: that's Mike, I also look back to what happened on 1956 01:43:04,880 --> 01:43:08,840 Speaker 2: Tuesday night. You know, in a game against the Timberwolves 1957 01:43:08,840 --> 01:43:12,320 Speaker 2: where you make a run and then Minnesota pushes you 1958 01:43:12,360 --> 01:43:14,800 Speaker 2: back at arm's length and then you know, cats and 1959 01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:18,200 Speaker 2: foul trouble. Uh, they're already thin across the front line. 1960 01:43:18,240 --> 01:43:22,479 Speaker 2: Edward was awful, Anthony Edwards was was awful, And Mike 1961 01:43:22,600 --> 01:43:25,800 Speaker 2: is correct in that assessment. And you still had to 1962 01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:29,040 Speaker 2: squeak out the game that you did and so at 1963 01:43:29,479 --> 01:43:32,840 Speaker 2: which which one is it if you're the Lakers, because 1964 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:35,200 Speaker 2: I would think as a Lakers fan, you aren't losing 1965 01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:37,200 Speaker 2: confidence after what you saw on Tuesday night. 1966 01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're happy to be in the dance. 1967 01:43:39,400 --> 01:43:40,000 Speaker 2: Yes, right. 1968 01:43:40,320 --> 01:43:42,600 Speaker 1: There's a difference for a game, for a season that 1969 01:43:42,720 --> 01:43:45,880 Speaker 1: seemed to be lost because they're Laker fans. You've been 1970 01:43:45,880 --> 01:43:46,639 Speaker 1: in La a while. 1971 01:43:48,360 --> 01:43:51,559 Speaker 2: It gets chesty, no, And I think it's it's actually 1972 01:43:51,600 --> 01:43:55,280 Speaker 2: a conundrum that I think can be used against you. 1973 01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:58,880 Speaker 2: It's like saying something to the police officer when you 1974 01:43:58,920 --> 01:44:01,880 Speaker 2: were just pulled over. It and we'll be used against you. 1975 01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:05,720 Speaker 2: You're an organization that settles for nothing less than championships. 1976 01:44:06,160 --> 01:44:11,040 Speaker 2: It is how your legacy is talked about with your 1977 01:44:11,120 --> 01:44:15,480 Speaker 2: seventeen championships. However, Mike, if you were to talk championship 1978 01:44:15,520 --> 01:44:18,680 Speaker 2: with this team, you sound idiotic. But if you were 1979 01:44:18,720 --> 01:44:20,760 Speaker 2: to say I just want to win a series, you're 1980 01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:24,680 Speaker 2: saying that's not up to the Lakers standard, and you 1981 01:44:24,720 --> 01:44:27,280 Speaker 2: can't say that when you have Lebron James and Anthony 1982 01:44:27,320 --> 01:44:29,720 Speaker 2: Davis on the roster. So there is this, there is 1983 01:44:29,760 --> 01:44:32,479 Speaker 2: this weird balance of damned if you do, damned if 1984 01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:34,960 Speaker 2: you don't when it comes to Laker fans and dealing 1985 01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:37,680 Speaker 2: with this sort of team. And so I just want 1986 01:44:37,720 --> 01:44:40,759 Speaker 2: it to be known that I'm just criticizing the ones 1987 01:44:40,840 --> 01:44:44,160 Speaker 2: that go against my point. That that's the main point 1988 01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:46,599 Speaker 2: about it. But it's true, like in saying all of that, 1989 01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:50,680 Speaker 2: like there's it's it's difficult to say, like there are 1990 01:44:50,720 --> 01:44:52,720 Speaker 2: some people that do think that the Lakers have a 1991 01:44:52,880 --> 01:44:56,760 Speaker 2: chance at winning the NBA title, and they don't. They 1992 01:44:56,840 --> 01:44:59,599 Speaker 2: really don't. It's not going to happen. But also as 1993 01:44:59,600 --> 01:45:01,479 Speaker 2: a Lakers you can't just say I just wanted to 1994 01:45:01,479 --> 01:45:03,840 Speaker 2: make it to the Conference semis because that's not the 1995 01:45:03,880 --> 01:45:04,639 Speaker 2: lakerway either. 1996 01:45:05,400 --> 01:45:08,240 Speaker 1: He's Dan Byer on Mike Carbon Fox Sports Sunday, Fox 1997 01:45:08,280 --> 01:45:11,040 Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

So the Marlins are gonna do a 2211 01:56:29,480 --> 01:56:34,240 Speaker 1: Bartman appreciation weekend. Owing back to that two thousand and three, 2212 01:56:34,360 --> 01:56:37,400 Speaker 1: I was recounting the tale of I Remember where I 2213 01:56:37,600 --> 01:56:40,000 Speaker 1: was well, because I'm a white Sox guy from the 2214 01:56:40,040 --> 01:56:43,200 Speaker 1: South side of Chicago, so anything that really put the 2215 01:56:43,240 --> 01:56:46,080 Speaker 1: Cubs in bad straits, it was okay. By me leaving 2216 01:56:46,080 --> 01:56:49,320 Speaker 1: an NBA course, getting in my car, turning on the radio, 2217 01:56:49,400 --> 01:56:52,600 Speaker 1: call to try to catch up, and literally that's the 2218 01:56:52,640 --> 01:56:55,640 Speaker 1: first play that happens. As I'm sitting in the car 2219 01:56:55,960 --> 01:56:59,120 Speaker 1: adjusting you know, seat belts and whatever else, and obviously 2220 01:56:59,160 --> 01:57:00,840 Speaker 1: a lot of other things had to happen for them 2221 01:57:00,840 --> 01:57:05,760 Speaker 1: to lose. So they put this out on their social media, 2222 01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:08,680 Speaker 1: and the Marlins claimed the release of a graphic which 2223 01:57:08,680 --> 01:57:12,360 Speaker 1: included Jazz Chisholm Junior and Juan Pierre, was out an 2224 01:57:12,520 --> 01:57:14,880 Speaker 1: error and there wasn't, you know, really a serious talk 2225 01:57:14,880 --> 01:57:18,680 Speaker 1: about promotion. But then there was an email that went 2226 01:57:18,720 --> 01:57:21,560 Speaker 1: out promoting the idea, and this started to gain some 2227 01:57:21,720 --> 01:57:24,360 Speaker 1: steam and a lot of people are you know, crying 2228 01:57:24,520 --> 01:57:26,400 Speaker 1: foul saying, oh, I'll look at the what you're doing 2229 01:57:26,400 --> 01:57:29,839 Speaker 1: to this poor guy, like he's part of the story. 2230 01:57:30,120 --> 01:57:34,040 Speaker 1: He injected himself into the play. It's twenty years at 2231 01:57:34,040 --> 01:57:36,080 Speaker 1: this point. He's not going to be mad that the 2232 01:57:36,120 --> 01:57:38,200 Speaker 1: Marlins are doing a little bit of a celebration here. 2233 01:57:38,240 --> 01:57:42,080 Speaker 2: You know, when you look back at that play, to me, 2234 01:57:43,160 --> 01:57:47,240 Speaker 2: I can't remember where I was at the time, just 2235 01:57:47,280 --> 01:57:50,680 Speaker 2: for the simple fact of it was everything that happened afterwards, 2236 01:57:51,320 --> 01:57:54,000 Speaker 2: that happened, so like the minute that I was doing it, 2237 01:57:54,200 --> 01:57:57,919 Speaker 2: or you know, it was happening, I remember it it happening. 2238 01:57:57,960 --> 01:58:01,000 Speaker 2: I just I can't remember where it was because Come 2239 01:58:01,040 --> 01:58:03,200 Speaker 2: still had the lead and I just did not think 2240 01:58:03,200 --> 01:58:06,920 Speaker 2: that that play was going to cost the Cubs the game. 2241 01:58:06,960 --> 01:58:11,080 Speaker 2: But then obviously as they blew it, then Steve Bartman's 2242 01:58:11,120 --> 01:58:14,040 Speaker 2: face becomes the face of that loss. 2243 01:58:14,320 --> 01:58:17,480 Speaker 1: Melt down on the mound and normally sure handed shortstop 2244 01:58:17,600 --> 01:58:22,120 Speaker 1: makes an error on a routine Remember there's also another game. 2245 01:58:22,800 --> 01:58:26,320 Speaker 1: Much like the Buckner yep Bucker play, everybody seems to 2246 01:58:26,360 --> 01:58:29,000 Speaker 1: forget that there was a lot more baseball that was bloody. 2247 01:58:29,000 --> 01:58:31,760 Speaker 1: Do you think though Calvin Chiraldi got off easy. 2248 01:58:31,640 --> 01:58:35,000 Speaker 2: Do you think the Marlins should have said, hey, moyses 2249 01:58:35,800 --> 01:58:39,400 Speaker 2: moyses Alou, we're also going to honor your nineteen ninety 2250 01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:42,160 Speaker 2: seven World Series championship, So why don't you come back 2251 01:58:42,160 --> 01:58:45,400 Speaker 2: for these dates only to trick him and be like, 2252 01:58:45,480 --> 01:58:48,160 Speaker 2: we're actually rubbing it in your face that you lost 2253 01:58:48,200 --> 01:58:50,840 Speaker 2: in a three.

Yeah, 2293 02:00:59,600 --> 02:01:02,240 Speaker 1: eventually it was turned into a musical. It was a 2294 02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:05,840 Speaker 1: good bit. I cycled back in, nicely done. Now we've 2295 02:01:05,960 --> 02:01:08,840 Speaker 1: got action on the pitch, so Premier League. We had 2296 02:01:08,840 --> 02:01:11,040 Speaker 1: a game earlier that ended in a two two tie, 2297 02:01:11,520 --> 02:01:13,600 Speaker 1: and now, man, you looks to have taken a one 2298 02:01:13,720 --> 02:01:17,560 Speaker 1: nil lead. One nil. I'm nodding in forced, but we've 2299 02:01:17,640 --> 02:01:22,600 Speaker 1: got snow. On April sixteenth, and we have football playoffs. 2300 02:01:23,600 --> 02:01:26,640 Speaker 1: Let's go as the XFL gets underway here on a Sunday. 2301 02:01:26,920 --> 02:01:31,880 Speaker 2: Listen. You're a Midwest guy. I'm a Midwest guy. Iowa. 2302 02:01:32,000 --> 02:01:34,160 Speaker 2: Sam's a Midwest guy. I can tell from the name. 2303 02:01:35,080 --> 02:01:37,480 Speaker 2: We all live in southern California now, and we all 2304 02:01:37,560 --> 02:01:40,640 Speaker 2: live here for a variety of reasons. One of the 2305 02:01:40,800 --> 02:01:44,960 Speaker 2: things though, that breaks the back of being like, all right, 2306 02:01:45,000 --> 02:01:47,560 Speaker 2: I can't do this anymore, like I need to I 2307 02:01:47,680 --> 02:01:49,640 Speaker 2: need to go move to Arizona, or I need to 2308 02:01:49,680 --> 02:01:53,040 Speaker 2: move to Florida because I can't do this is snow 2309 02:01:53,400 --> 02:01:57,320 Speaker 2: on April sixteenth. Like there is one thing, Mike getting 2310 02:01:57,400 --> 02:02:03,280 Speaker 2: snow for the holidays in December. Everyone most everyone loves 2311 02:02:03,320 --> 02:02:06,000 Speaker 2: a white Christmas. In fact, you could deal with it 2312 02:02:06,320 --> 02:02:08,960 Speaker 2: throughout January and then you kind of have to deal 2313 02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:12,720 Speaker 2: with it in February. Once February kind of gets to 2314 02:02:12,800 --> 02:02:15,440 Speaker 2: the back end, you see March knocking on the door, 2315 02:02:15,520 --> 02:02:17,760 Speaker 2: You're like, all right, you can kind of you can 2316 02:02:17,840 --> 02:02:20,600 Speaker 2: kind of move away snow. You don't need to March 2317 02:02:20,840 --> 02:02:26,880 Speaker 2: on April sixteenth that I saw some pictures from Twin 2318 02:02:26,960 --> 02:02:30,120 Speaker 2: Cities area. Charch actually posted one up. We just saw 2319 02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:35,880 Speaker 2: on the screen deluthe white. Right. Now, that's the point 2320 02:02:35,960 --> 02:02:39,880 Speaker 2: where you're just like, can't do this anymore, can't do 2321 02:02:40,000 --> 02:02:43,040 Speaker 2: it anymore. It is the mid April snow, which by 2322 02:02:43,080 --> 02:02:46,640 Speaker 2: the way, could be gone by Tuesday, depending on how 2323 02:02:46,720 --> 02:02:49,640 Speaker 2: much you get. But that is the point that just 2324 02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:54,280 Speaker 2: is it's the backbreaker. It's like, my goodness, can we 2325 02:02:54,400 --> 02:02:56,440 Speaker 2: get springing into summer here soon enough? 2326 02:02:56,600 --> 02:02:59,320 Speaker 1: Well? What's been odd here is in southern California as 2327 02:02:59,320 --> 02:03:02,000 Speaker 1: you reference it, and maybe we've had all the torrential 2328 02:03:02,160 --> 02:03:07,600 Speaker 1: rains and long standing after years of drought. Now all 2329 02:03:07,720 --> 02:03:11,000 Speaker 1: those maps are clean. I know Colin has referenced that 2330 02:03:11,320 --> 02:03:15,720 Speaker 1: his weather map readings on Thursdays and stuff as part 2331 02:03:15,760 --> 02:03:18,080 Speaker 1: of his show. But you know they extended the ski 2332 02:03:18,200 --> 02:03:22,160 Speaker 1: seasons because of this, right, big bears closing on April thirtieth, 2333 02:03:22,680 --> 02:03:24,920 Speaker 1: and they may be able to go longer based on 2334 02:03:25,560 --> 02:03:28,400 Speaker 1: the snow and been there, right, Yeah, all of a sudden, 2335 02:03:28,400 --> 02:03:29,840 Speaker 1: we're drifting. Hey, the kids are out of school. 2336 02:03:29,840 --> 02:03:30,200 Speaker 3: What do we do? 2337 02:03:30,280 --> 02:03:31,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna go skiing. 2338 02:03:32,000 --> 02:03:34,920 Speaker 2: That's I'll tell you. It's different though, when you can 2339 02:03:35,200 --> 02:03:36,280 Speaker 2: escape down the mountain. 2340 02:03:36,840 --> 02:03:39,080 Speaker 1: No, that's it, right, go up there and then just 2341 02:03:39,120 --> 02:03:40,600 Speaker 1: say all right, I'm going back to the beach. 2342 02:03:40,720 --> 02:03:44,200 Speaker 2: And it's also like if you're in Denver, you know, Colorado, 2343 02:03:45,320 --> 02:03:49,320 Speaker 2: you are accustomed to, oh my goodness, we've got a snowfall. 2344 02:03:49,400 --> 02:03:51,920 Speaker 2: But it's also they have the flip side of they 2345 02:03:51,960 --> 02:03:55,680 Speaker 2: could have a really really nice day in February, you know, 2346 02:03:55,760 --> 02:03:58,520 Speaker 2: where it could be like sixty or seventy degrees. Like 2347 02:03:58,640 --> 02:04:03,120 Speaker 2: there's that is that back and forth you can live with. 2348 02:04:04,040 --> 02:04:08,280 Speaker 2: It's this of why can't I leave? Why can't I 2349 02:04:08,400 --> 02:04:11,760 Speaker 2: leave winter? You know, I am still here. I just 2350 02:04:11,920 --> 02:04:15,960 Speaker 2: want this over with. And that's that's what April sixteenth 2351 02:04:16,040 --> 02:04:20,480 Speaker 2: snowfall does. That's what pushes the midwesterner to go and 2352 02:04:20,720 --> 02:04:23,880 Speaker 2: move to the Southern States to not have to deal 2353 02:04:23,960 --> 02:04:25,000 Speaker 2: with this any long. 2354 02:04:25,080 --> 02:04:28,400 Speaker 1: Oh we talked about seasonal depression is a very real thing. Yes, 2355 02:04:28,440 --> 02:04:30,560 Speaker 1: it's gonna have the happiest people in the world outgoing 2356 02:04:30,600 --> 02:04:34,320 Speaker 1: as soon as the street fairs and and celebrations happen. 2357 02:04:34,440 --> 02:04:37,200 Speaker 1: I know that from my hometown of Chicago. As soon 2358 02:04:37,240 --> 02:04:39,560 Speaker 1: as you start getting all the block parties going in 2359 02:04:39,680 --> 02:04:42,360 Speaker 1: through the summer, even when it's muggy as hell and 2360 02:04:42,520 --> 02:04:44,480 Speaker 1: all of that, you celebrate all of it knowing that 2361 02:04:45,120 --> 02:04:48,440 Speaker 1: eventually you're going to be back in to late October 2362 02:04:48,520 --> 02:04:50,480 Speaker 1: November where it gets dark for six months. 2363 02:04:50,640 --> 02:04:54,640 Speaker 2: As a golf fan, the ten day forecast right around 2364 02:04:54,760 --> 02:04:58,000 Speaker 2: Valentine's Day, to me was what I would look at, 2365 02:04:58,400 --> 02:05:01,960 Speaker 2: because you know, if it's February fourteenth, you go ahead 2366 02:05:02,040 --> 02:05:04,240 Speaker 2: ten days to the twenty third or twenty fourth. Now 2367 02:05:04,280 --> 02:05:07,640 Speaker 2: you're darn near at the end of eight end of February, 2368 02:05:08,120 --> 02:05:10,120 Speaker 2: and you're like, all right, is the weather going to 2369 02:05:10,200 --> 02:05:12,080 Speaker 2: change from March? Am I going to be able to 2370 02:05:12,120 --> 02:05:14,480 Speaker 2: go to the driving range? You know? How close could 2371 02:05:14,520 --> 02:05:16,960 Speaker 2: these courses be open? So you're watching the ten day 2372 02:05:17,000 --> 02:05:20,240 Speaker 2: forecast just hoping that spring is around the corner, no 2373 02:05:20,360 --> 02:05:22,560 Speaker 2: matter what the groundhog said a couple of weeks back. 2374 02:05:22,880 --> 02:05:24,960 Speaker 2: And now to be at April sixteenth and going on 2375 02:05:25,080 --> 02:05:29,240 Speaker 2: your forecast and being like, ah, chance of snow, Yeah, 2376 02:05:29,360 --> 02:05:34,520 Speaker 2: that's gonna drive you nuts. So so sympathies with those 2377 02:05:34,640 --> 02:05:39,520 Speaker 2: dealing with the snow in Minnesota, and you know Duluth 2378 02:05:39,640 --> 02:05:43,520 Speaker 2: and hearts in between the Luth and the Twin Cities. 2379 02:05:43,600 --> 02:05:45,240 Speaker 1: Well, but at least in the Twin Cities you get 2380 02:05:45,280 --> 02:05:47,520 Speaker 1: to celebrate the Tea Wolves as part of the playoffs, 2381 02:05:47,960 --> 02:05:50,840 Speaker 1: so you got a little bit of excitement there. Sure, Hey, 2382 02:05:50,920 --> 02:05:52,520 Speaker 1: you know what, you got to find your wins wherever 2383 02:05:52,560 --> 02:05:55,160 Speaker 1: you can. Dampire. It's one of the mantras of the show, 2384 02:05:55,880 --> 02:05:59,920 Speaker 1: and one of the mantras of this year becomes the 2385 02:06:00,080 --> 02:06:02,800 Speaker 1: why not us in the Western Conference? I think we've 2386 02:06:02,880 --> 02:06:05,440 Speaker 1: had a lot more of that discussion. We talked about 2387 02:06:05,480 --> 02:06:08,160 Speaker 1: the Lakers a little bit earlier. And perhaps it's just 2388 02:06:08,360 --> 02:06:11,160 Speaker 1: money that's going to come in if the Lebron James 2389 02:06:11,240 --> 02:06:13,600 Speaker 1: team is in the playoffs, people are going to cycle 2390 02:06:13,680 --> 02:06:16,600 Speaker 1: in a little bit with Anthony Davis healthy and go through. 2391 02:06:16,720 --> 02:06:19,640 Speaker 1: But one of the narratives that comes into the playoffs 2392 02:06:19,920 --> 02:06:22,360 Speaker 1: is the fact that since nineteen ninety five, you haven't 2393 02:06:22,440 --> 02:06:26,200 Speaker 1: had a team lower than a third seed win a title. 2394 02:06:26,280 --> 02:06:29,240 Speaker 1: Go back to Houston when they won it. You've had 2395 02:06:29,440 --> 02:06:34,000 Speaker 1: a three seeds, you know, with a couple of examples Lakers, Mavericks, 2396 02:06:34,040 --> 02:06:37,680 Speaker 1: et cetera, Bucks and the Bucks. So now we're looking 2397 02:06:37,720 --> 02:06:40,200 Speaker 1: at the Bucks sitting there at the number one seed, 2398 02:06:40,560 --> 02:06:43,920 Speaker 1: fifty eight to twenty four, a squad that even with 2399 02:06:44,080 --> 02:06:46,120 Speaker 1: that record, and this is where it's you know, we 2400 02:06:46,200 --> 02:06:52,120 Speaker 1: can grab and congregate all sorts of different nf NBA storylines, 2401 02:06:52,440 --> 02:06:55,320 Speaker 1: But for the Bucks sitting there at number one. We 2402 02:06:55,360 --> 02:06:58,240 Speaker 1: don't paying attention to them at all really during the 2403 02:06:58,280 --> 02:07:01,480 Speaker 1: regular season until it became let's talk about MVPs. And 2404 02:07:01,560 --> 02:07:04,120 Speaker 1: Giannis does a good job of campaigning for himself without 2405 02:07:04,200 --> 02:07:06,920 Speaker 1: campaigning for himself. He's really become a master of that, 2406 02:07:07,280 --> 02:07:09,760 Speaker 1: and I think he should give classes and ted talks 2407 02:07:10,120 --> 02:07:13,640 Speaker 1: as to how to really prop yourself up without sounding 2408 02:07:13,760 --> 02:07:16,600 Speaker 1: boastful and you can sound humble while doing it. 2409 02:07:17,040 --> 02:07:20,640 Speaker 2: I would argue, though, that Giannis is past winning MVPs. 2410 02:07:21,600 --> 02:07:24,280 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm one hundred percent with you. Yeah, but the 2411 02:07:24,400 --> 02:07:26,680 Speaker 1: conversations that he's had to have the last couple well, 2412 02:07:26,720 --> 02:07:28,480 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm in the MVP every year. Sure, 2413 02:07:28,520 --> 02:07:31,760 Speaker 1: but he doesn't get grief. Everybody else gets flack from 2414 02:07:31,800 --> 02:07:32,680 Speaker 1: putting themselves. 2415 02:07:33,280 --> 02:07:35,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's got two of them, you know. I mean, like, 2416 02:07:36,280 --> 02:07:39,240 Speaker 2: I think that you know, the the greats of the game, 2417 02:07:39,440 --> 02:07:43,920 Speaker 2: and I think that's that's where Joel Embiid and Nicola 2418 02:07:44,000 --> 02:07:46,440 Speaker 2: jokicz are trying to go. And Jokicic is a two 2419 02:07:46,520 --> 02:07:49,360 Speaker 2: time winner of They need success with their team to 2420 02:07:50,680 --> 02:07:54,840 Speaker 2: He needs it to validate his two MVPs, and Joel 2421 02:07:54,840 --> 02:07:57,840 Speaker 2: Embiid just needs an MVP to get into that conversation. 2422 02:07:58,040 --> 02:08:01,200 Speaker 1: Well, he'll take whatever you can get. It's a title run, great, 2423 02:08:01,400 --> 02:08:04,040 Speaker 1: if it's an MVP, because great. Hey, He's just looking 2424 02:08:04,080 --> 02:08:07,320 Speaker 1: for some validation beyond hey, you're a really good player, 2425 02:08:07,600 --> 02:08:10,200 Speaker 1: congratulation for overcoming those early injuries. 2426 02:08:10,360 --> 02:08:12,680 Speaker 2: He needed something, maybe even a win over Boston. Maybe 2427 02:08:12,720 --> 02:08:15,120 Speaker 2: a trip to the Eastern Finals will help. I'm not 2428 02:08:15,200 --> 02:08:18,200 Speaker 2: even sure what Joelle Embiid needs. Actually he needs a 2429 02:08:18,240 --> 02:08:20,959 Speaker 2: trip to the NBA finals. If you can navigate Milwaukee 2430 02:08:21,080 --> 02:08:23,240 Speaker 2: and Boston, that would look really good on your resume. 2431 02:08:23,560 --> 02:08:25,400 Speaker 2: And I just think, and I think Mike, the reason 2432 02:08:25,440 --> 02:08:27,879 Speaker 2: why we haven't spoken about them too much is because 2433 02:08:28,480 --> 02:08:33,800 Speaker 2: of just on how consistent they've been and how good 2434 02:08:33,800 --> 02:08:35,960 Speaker 2: they've been. When they went on their winning streak, they 2435 02:08:36,040 --> 02:08:38,240 Speaker 2: were talked about at that point and that allowed them 2436 02:08:38,280 --> 02:08:40,640 Speaker 2: to overtake Boston in the East. But I think that 2437 02:08:40,720 --> 02:08:45,360 Speaker 2: we just felt that at some point Milwaukee and Boston 2438 02:08:45,400 --> 02:08:47,400 Speaker 2: were going to be on a collision course for the 2439 02:08:47,680 --> 02:08:49,760 Speaker 2: Eastern Finals, and it was just who was going to 2440 02:08:49,800 --> 02:08:51,920 Speaker 2: get the seventy six ers in the conference semis. In 2441 02:08:51,960 --> 02:08:56,680 Speaker 2: the end, Milwaukee ends up winning out, but they should 2442 02:08:56,720 --> 02:08:59,040 Speaker 2: get past the heat. They should be able to win 2443 02:08:59,160 --> 02:09:03,080 Speaker 2: that series despite what you know happened in the the bubble. 2444 02:09:03,160 --> 02:09:05,720 Speaker 2: I mean, the Bucks in their championship run were able 2445 02:09:05,800 --> 02:09:08,120 Speaker 2: to dispatch Miami. I think you're gonna get a Miami 2446 02:09:08,200 --> 02:09:10,760 Speaker 2: Heat team somewhere in between those two. But they should 2447 02:09:10,760 --> 02:09:13,400 Speaker 2: win the series, and they honestly should beat the Knicks 2448 02:09:13,440 --> 02:09:16,280 Speaker 2: er Calves. It's just that series with the Boston Celtics 2449 02:09:17,080 --> 02:09:20,360 Speaker 2: that just has you scratching your head, and you forget 2450 02:09:20,480 --> 02:09:22,920 Speaker 2: to last year when Boston made it to the NBA Finals. 2451 02:09:23,000 --> 02:09:24,960 Speaker 2: The Bucks had a three to two lead. They went 2452 02:09:25,040 --> 02:09:28,400 Speaker 2: to Boston and won, but they went back to Milwaukee 2453 02:09:28,480 --> 02:09:32,080 Speaker 2: and lost, and then the Grant Williams game happened. You know, 2454 02:09:32,240 --> 02:09:36,400 Speaker 2: I mean, so so and I and I think Boston's better. 2455 02:09:36,600 --> 02:09:38,760 Speaker 2: I think Boston's better than they were a year ago, 2456 02:09:39,280 --> 02:09:42,760 Speaker 2: and Milwaukee is a bit of a different team. But 2457 02:09:43,160 --> 02:09:46,680 Speaker 2: when you point to that final game that they played 2458 02:09:47,240 --> 02:09:50,280 Speaker 2: at the end of the regular season, the number one 2459 02:09:50,400 --> 02:09:53,840 Speaker 2: seed MIC was still up for grabs. Still, you know, 2460 02:09:53,960 --> 02:09:55,600 Speaker 2: the Bucks had an edge, and they had they had 2461 02:09:55,720 --> 02:09:58,200 Speaker 2: they had a safety net, but it was still in 2462 02:09:59,120 --> 02:10:01,560 Speaker 2: play and you could send a message to Boston, this 2463 02:10:01,720 --> 02:10:05,280 Speaker 2: is who we are and end any threat that Boston 2464 02:10:05,320 --> 02:10:07,600 Speaker 2: would have had for the number one seed, and the 2465 02:10:07,720 --> 02:10:11,320 Speaker 2: Celtics go in to Milwaukee and smoke them by I 2466 02:10:11,440 --> 02:10:12,800 Speaker 2: think forty one was the final death. 2467 02:10:12,960 --> 02:10:14,840 Speaker 1: We were on air looking at each other wondering what 2468 02:10:15,000 --> 02:10:15,440 Speaker 1: was happening. 2469 02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:18,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you how do you explain that? How 2470 02:10:18,440 --> 02:10:20,600 Speaker 2: do you explain that when you know they also beat 2471 02:10:20,600 --> 02:10:23,200 Speaker 2: you earlier on in the season. They ended up, you know, 2472 02:10:23,320 --> 02:10:26,080 Speaker 2: taking two of three from the Bucks. But how do 2473 02:10:26,120 --> 02:10:30,040 Speaker 2: you explain that after what transpired in the playoffs last year? 2474 02:10:30,480 --> 02:10:32,520 Speaker 2: And so that goes to the point Mike of not 2475 02:10:32,680 --> 02:10:35,600 Speaker 2: only is it turning it on and off, It's why 2476 02:10:35,800 --> 02:10:38,280 Speaker 2: I think Boston is just best equipped. And I was 2477 02:10:38,320 --> 02:10:41,320 Speaker 2: critical of Jason Tatum being like, they now know how 2478 02:10:41,360 --> 02:10:43,320 Speaker 2: to win the NBA Finals. I'm like, well, you don't 2479 02:10:43,400 --> 02:10:47,200 Speaker 2: know because you haven't done it yet. However, if Boston 2480 02:10:47,280 --> 02:10:51,880 Speaker 2: doesn't win the NBA Finals, I would be surprised. I 2481 02:10:52,000 --> 02:10:54,920 Speaker 2: have felt for a majority of the last three months 2482 02:10:55,000 --> 02:10:57,280 Speaker 2: that the NBA Playoffs are going to be the Celtics 2483 02:10:57,360 --> 02:11:00,160 Speaker 2: Invitational because of how good they are. One game does 2484 02:11:00,240 --> 02:11:03,400 Speaker 2: not prove everything. But yesterday they came out and they're like, 2485 02:11:03,480 --> 02:11:04,920 Speaker 2: all right, we're handling business again. 2486 02:11:04,960 --> 02:11:07,800 Speaker 1: Do you think that's the Jalen Brown gardening incident will 2487 02:11:07,880 --> 02:11:09,280 Speaker 1: have any ill effect. 2488 02:11:09,000 --> 02:11:12,440 Speaker 2: Long term, maybe maybe on his flowers like. 2489 02:11:12,920 --> 02:11:15,760 Speaker 1: A baseball when when when that one was released? 2490 02:11:16,000 --> 02:11:22,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, a voss, A shattered voss. That's what it was, yes, 2491 02:11:22,920 --> 02:11:27,960 Speaker 2: instead of like no, But Boston is just locked in 2492 02:11:28,080 --> 02:11:32,920 Speaker 2: and that's it sounds very simple, but and you know 2493 02:11:33,000 --> 02:11:35,280 Speaker 2: it's it's funny, Mike, because the Bucks won a title 2494 02:11:35,320 --> 02:11:38,200 Speaker 2: two years ago and as a Bucks fan, you know, 2495 02:11:38,280 --> 02:11:40,120 Speaker 2: there was a point that you had to you had 2496 02:11:40,160 --> 02:11:42,480 Speaker 2: to make a decision and it all worked out in 2497 02:11:42,480 --> 02:11:44,440 Speaker 2: the end where they win a title and they acquired 2498 02:11:44,720 --> 02:11:50,480 Speaker 2: Drew Holiday, but they gave money to Eric Bloodshell and 2499 02:11:51,000 --> 02:11:55,600 Speaker 2: Malcolm Brogden left and he was always just a Buck 2500 02:11:55,960 --> 02:11:58,360 Speaker 2: like like even it wasn't like, yes, he was there 2501 02:11:58,400 --> 02:12:00,840 Speaker 2: for twelve years, but yeah, like he just he felt, 2502 02:12:01,320 --> 02:12:04,120 Speaker 2: you know, he fit in so well and so now 2503 02:12:04,320 --> 02:12:05,560 Speaker 2: like it was one thing to have him on the 2504 02:12:05,600 --> 02:12:08,160 Speaker 2: paincers where they weren't, but now for him as a 2505 02:12:08,240 --> 02:12:10,960 Speaker 2: member of the Boston Celtics. Yeah, I just think I 2506 02:12:11,000 --> 02:12:13,560 Speaker 2: think it's really gonna be tough for Milwaukee to get 2507 02:12:13,560 --> 02:12:15,600 Speaker 2: to the NBA Finals because you have to go through Boston. 2508 02:12:16,000 --> 02:12:18,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like chaos in between the white lines. Right, 2509 02:12:18,640 --> 02:12:20,840 Speaker 1: So why watching the Bulls game the other day against 2510 02:12:20,840 --> 02:12:23,840 Speaker 1: the Heat. Look, I'm a Jimmy Butler guy, always was 2511 02:12:23,880 --> 02:12:27,640 Speaker 1: one of my favorite guys playing, so him winning, Like, 2512 02:12:27,720 --> 02:12:31,400 Speaker 1: I like the Heat squad, but they don't know obviously 2513 02:12:31,480 --> 02:12:35,600 Speaker 1: they're a five hundred team sure so streaky sustainability whatever. Likewise, 2514 02:12:35,640 --> 02:12:38,600 Speaker 1: the Bulls star Layden, You've got a bunch of guys 2515 02:12:38,680 --> 02:12:42,680 Speaker 1: that should have been much better bringing Caruso becomes a 2516 02:12:42,800 --> 02:12:45,760 Speaker 1: hero to the fans like he was here in Los Angeles. 2517 02:12:45,880 --> 02:12:48,600 Speaker 1: It's like, this didn't work? Why did this not work? 2518 02:12:48,680 --> 02:12:51,680 Speaker 1: Billy's out of him? Why did this not work? Well? 2519 02:12:51,800 --> 02:12:53,960 Speaker 2: You like the Heat more than I do because I 2520 02:12:54,440 --> 02:12:58,160 Speaker 2: you like Jimmy Butler. He's annoying. Tyler hero is like 2521 02:12:58,480 --> 02:13:01,440 Speaker 2: machine gun Kelly that plays bass caball like that's that's 2522 02:13:01,680 --> 02:13:03,840 Speaker 2: who he reminds me of. And I know he's good. 2523 02:13:04,000 --> 02:13:05,680 Speaker 1: That's a machine Kelly reference. 2524 02:13:05,760 --> 02:13:06,240 Speaker 2: Am I wrong? 2525 02:13:06,560 --> 02:13:07,160 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? 2526 02:13:08,200 --> 02:13:08,440 Speaker 2: Am I? 2527 02:13:09,760 --> 02:13:09,880 Speaker 1: Well? 2528 02:13:10,360 --> 02:13:16,640 Speaker 2: Neither can I? But they I mean like I, oh yeah, 2529 02:13:16,960 --> 02:13:20,160 Speaker 2: Iowa Sam said I can't name one machine Kelly song 2530 02:13:20,240 --> 02:13:23,040 Speaker 2: and I and I I can't either, But that's you know, 2531 02:13:23,360 --> 02:13:29,720 Speaker 2: and Kyle Lowery, like you know, there's there's this when 2532 02:13:29,800 --> 02:13:33,040 Speaker 2: Kyle Lowry was in Toronto, he never got the love 2533 02:13:33,200 --> 02:13:35,920 Speaker 2: that he deserved. And then when you would criticize Kyle 2534 02:13:36,040 --> 02:13:38,600 Speaker 2: Lowry from the national people, Raptors loved him. All the 2535 02:13:38,680 --> 02:13:40,840 Speaker 2: Raptors fans would be mad. I mean, he had, you know, 2536 02:13:41,080 --> 02:13:43,840 Speaker 2: a great game the other night. But uh, you know, 2537 02:13:43,960 --> 02:13:47,600 Speaker 2: I I don't know if he's he's a lovable guy 2538 02:13:47,720 --> 02:13:50,440 Speaker 2: like like bam ade Bio and you know, Max Struce 2539 02:13:50,480 --> 02:13:52,800 Speaker 2: has done nothing to hurt me, you know, and maybe 2540 02:13:52,880 --> 02:13:53,760 Speaker 2: Kevin Loves. 2541 02:13:53,640 --> 02:13:55,880 Speaker 1: You know, had that big game and Kevin y one, 2542 02:13:56,520 --> 02:13:56,920 Speaker 1: but I don't know. 2543 02:13:57,000 --> 02:13:59,600 Speaker 2: I just I don't find the heat like extremely likable. 2544 02:14:00,160 --> 02:14:02,680 Speaker 2: Just they're just that and keep culture just ends up 2545 02:14:02,720 --> 02:14:03,480 Speaker 2: wearing me down. 2546 02:14:04,240 --> 02:14:07,879 Speaker 1: So I get you, but they are now your opponent 2547 02:14:07,960 --> 02:14:11,600 Speaker 1: and you will have to vanquish them. Bull business. 2548 02:14:12,240 --> 02:14:14,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, your bulls have the names. 2549 02:14:14,600 --> 02:14:17,040 Speaker 1: They had the opportunity, and they failed, and they ended 2550 02:14:17,120 --> 02:14:20,760 Speaker 1: up losing by eleven a game that they led most 2551 02:14:20,840 --> 02:14:24,120 Speaker 1: of the way or were even virtually the entire game. 2552 02:14:24,600 --> 02:14:27,760 Speaker 1: One point scored in the final three forty six on 2553 02:14:27,960 --> 02:14:31,160 Speaker 1: Finday night. So that era is over for me. You know, 2554 02:14:31,280 --> 02:14:34,360 Speaker 1: you talk about recency of the Bucks winning a title. 2555 02:14:34,680 --> 02:14:37,520 Speaker 1: Looking at White Sox two thousand and five, Bulls go 2556 02:14:37,640 --> 02:14:39,800 Speaker 1: all back all those years. The Bears were still living 2557 02:14:39,840 --> 02:14:43,840 Speaker 1: on nineteen eighty five, and then Jonathan Tays skated his 2558 02:14:44,000 --> 02:14:46,840 Speaker 1: last shift with the Blackhawks the other night, So that's gone. 2559 02:14:47,200 --> 02:14:51,240 Speaker 1: I got nothing. Wildcats making a bowl game, making the 2560 02:14:51,320 --> 02:14:55,080 Speaker 1: NCAA tournament. That's about all I got. Hey, that's our 2561 02:14:55,160 --> 02:14:58,520 Speaker 1: top ten pick next week as the NFL Draft comes 2562 02:14:58,560 --> 02:14:59,000 Speaker 1: to Fox. 2563 02:15:01,320 --> 02:15:03,960 Speaker 2: At least your Bears are trending upwards and you've got 2564 02:15:04,040 --> 02:15:06,680 Speaker 2: future draft capital to keep in the back of your mind. 2565 02:15:06,840 --> 02:15:08,280 Speaker 2: Is a nice, nice safe place. 2566 02:15:08,480 --> 02:15:11,160 Speaker 1: Well, and they've got people in charge that aren't directly 2567 02:15:11,440 --> 02:15:15,320 Speaker 1: related to or haven't been lifelong friends of the mccaskeys 2568 02:15:15,720 --> 02:15:18,920 Speaker 1: and Hollises, so that could help. That could help in 2569 02:15:18,960 --> 02:15:20,400 Speaker 1: the evaluation process. 2570 02:15:21,320 --> 02:15:24,400 Speaker 2: Man, the Bears. You know I mentioned earlier on the 2571 02:15:24,600 --> 02:15:30,680 Speaker 2: NFL is better when certain teams are good, and let's 2572 02:15:30,760 --> 02:15:33,600 Speaker 2: go Finns tweeted at me, Oh yeah, okay, And so 2573 02:15:33,720 --> 02:15:36,240 Speaker 2: I just said dolphins because his name was let's go 2574 02:15:36,320 --> 02:15:37,920 Speaker 2: Fins and there was a dolphin helmet. I don't know 2575 02:15:37,960 --> 02:15:40,280 Speaker 2: if I really believe that it's the Dolphins. I do 2576 02:15:40,400 --> 02:15:42,360 Speaker 2: believe it's the Cowboys, and I actually do believe it's 2577 02:15:42,400 --> 02:15:44,480 Speaker 2: the Bears. I think the NFL is better when the 2578 02:15:44,520 --> 02:15:45,120 Speaker 2: Bears are good. 2579 02:15:46,080 --> 02:15:49,240 Speaker 1: There's always an entertainment because you celebrate defense. At least 2580 02:15:49,280 --> 02:15:52,680 Speaker 1: his story to that, right, Yeah, and everybody loves a 2581 02:15:52,720 --> 02:15:55,720 Speaker 1: good Walter Payton's story or highlight of him running through people, 2582 02:15:56,400 --> 02:16:00,960 Speaker 1: which you can layer over the top of deer fighting 2583 02:16:01,560 --> 02:16:05,400 Speaker 1: and bucks laying into one. That's how Walter Payton would 2584 02:16:05,560 --> 02:16:08,800 Speaker 1: would get to contact along the sidelines, stepping out a bounce. 2585 02:16:09,000 --> 02:16:13,720 Speaker 1: Not so fast. Oh, I'll tell you different times.

We 2596 02:16:44,720 --> 02:16:48,560 Speaker 1: got NBA playoffs coming up, a full day of Major 2597 02:16:48,640 --> 02:16:51,600 Speaker 1: League Baseball action, and of course I got my eyes 2598 02:16:52,120 --> 02:16:56,640 Speaker 1: miles and miles from from here on the pitch overseas 2599 02:16:56,720 --> 02:16:59,320 Speaker 1: with the EPL rolling Dan Byron and I with you 2600 02:16:59,480 --> 02:17:02,560 Speaker 1: here or the next half hour plus, and then Steve 2601 02:17:02,640 --> 02:17:05,720 Speaker 1: Hartman's already in the circling in the wings. It's like 2602 02:17:05,760 --> 02:17:12,080 Speaker 1: a hummingbird. He moves quickly and he travels a lot 2603 02:17:12,080 --> 02:17:14,840 Speaker 1: of space. There's the laugh that you know so well. 2604 02:17:16,200 --> 02:17:19,320 Speaker 1: So dan Odell Beckham Junior signs this deal. When we 2605 02:17:19,480 --> 02:17:23,000 Speaker 1: last we spoke a week ago, he was supposed to 2606 02:17:23,080 --> 02:17:26,760 Speaker 1: visit the Jets. Well that never happened. Fifteen million guaranteed 2607 02:17:26,920 --> 02:17:35,080 Speaker 1: plus incentives becomes Dacosta's big ticket acquisition in Baltimore. Really 2608 02:17:35,280 --> 02:17:38,640 Speaker 1: laying to rest or trying to or at least he 2609 02:17:38,720 --> 02:17:41,080 Speaker 1: seems like he's checking boxes. All right, You can't yell 2610 02:17:41,080 --> 02:17:43,040 Speaker 1: at me that I never spent on a receiver or 2611 02:17:43,120 --> 02:17:46,560 Speaker 1: never tried, which was always erroneous because you can look 2612 02:17:46,600 --> 02:17:51,640 Speaker 1: at their history of wide receiver leaders. They're all guys 2613 02:17:51,720 --> 02:17:54,560 Speaker 1: that came from somewhere else. There are not a lot 2614 02:17:54,600 --> 02:17:59,199 Speaker 1: of in homegrown guys that litter that leaderboard of receiving 2615 02:17:59,280 --> 02:18:02,840 Speaker 1: yards or anything. You make this splash, and then there's 2616 02:18:02,920 --> 02:18:06,040 Speaker 1: reports that come out Jeremy Fowler and others that Lamar 2617 02:18:06,160 --> 02:18:09,440 Speaker 1: Jackson had been making the demands of Hey, I want 2618 02:18:09,520 --> 02:18:12,600 Speaker 1: Odell and I want DeAndre Hopkins. Now Hopkins is still 2619 02:18:12,640 --> 02:18:14,920 Speaker 1: in no man's land, but it doesn't seem like anybody 2620 02:18:14,959 --> 02:18:17,400 Speaker 1: wants to play in Arizona. Whether that's a Kyler Murray 2621 02:18:17,520 --> 02:18:22,600 Speaker 1: issue or just whatever the feel is from top on 2622 02:18:22,920 --> 02:18:26,760 Speaker 1: down of how the organization is being run. Seems like 2623 02:18:26,840 --> 02:18:30,840 Speaker 1: everybody wants wants out to go Vegas blackjack dealer and 2624 02:18:31,040 --> 02:18:34,720 Speaker 1: extricate themselves from the situation. Buddha Baker the latest to 2625 02:18:34,840 --> 02:18:38,360 Speaker 1: make his demands requests however, you want a term it known. 2626 02:18:38,879 --> 02:18:41,800 Speaker 1: So we go through the process and you look at 2627 02:18:41,840 --> 02:18:46,240 Speaker 1: all these different pieces. Ben Roethlisberger now chirpy because he's 2628 02:18:46,280 --> 02:18:48,480 Speaker 1: got a podcast. He wants to talk about Lamar Jackson 2629 02:18:48,520 --> 02:18:52,280 Speaker 1: in his accuracy, all of these things swirling around. But 2630 02:18:52,920 --> 02:18:56,280 Speaker 1: does it strike as desperation? Does it strike as a 2631 02:18:56,360 --> 02:18:59,560 Speaker 1: power play? A bit by Lamar Jackson who's made his 2632 02:18:59,680 --> 02:19:02,920 Speaker 1: feeling known, So the Ravens are trying to bend to 2633 02:19:03,040 --> 02:19:05,600 Speaker 1: his whims as best they can under the salary cap 2634 02:19:05,959 --> 02:19:09,680 Speaker 1: or is it some divide between there and trying to 2635 02:19:09,720 --> 02:19:11,279 Speaker 1: make the best of a bad situation. 2636 02:19:11,320 --> 02:19:15,640 Speaker 2: I initially had the hot take reaction to it. I 2637 02:19:16,120 --> 02:19:19,560 Speaker 2: told you on many of shows my thoughts on Odell 2638 02:19:19,600 --> 02:19:22,480 Speaker 2: Beckham Junior. I just don't think that he is the 2639 02:19:22,560 --> 02:19:26,200 Speaker 2: receiver that has been hyped up to me anymore. I 2640 02:19:26,560 --> 02:19:29,160 Speaker 2: don't know how you can. And I think that the 2641 02:19:29,280 --> 02:19:33,440 Speaker 2: RAMS stay was actually more of the outlier than what 2642 02:19:33,680 --> 02:19:36,720 Speaker 2: is the norm of just him fitting in seamlessly and 2643 02:19:36,920 --> 02:19:39,880 Speaker 2: having a role on that team as they go and 2644 02:19:39,959 --> 02:19:43,760 Speaker 2: win a Super Bowl and now you have another ACL 2645 02:19:44,440 --> 02:19:47,680 Speaker 2: surgery and you're coming off of that, and now you're 2646 02:19:47,680 --> 02:19:51,280 Speaker 2: in a different, just completely different scenario. Even the RAMS 2647 02:19:51,280 --> 02:19:53,480 Speaker 2: show that you can't plug him play, you know, like 2648 02:19:53,640 --> 02:19:56,480 Speaker 2: Alan bring it. Guess what we don't know don't have 2649 02:19:56,600 --> 02:19:59,400 Speaker 2: OBJ anymore. We got Alan Robinson. Well that didn't necessarily work, 2650 02:20:00,160 --> 02:20:04,640 Speaker 2: so it's not it's not just OBJ. I just don't 2651 02:20:04,640 --> 02:20:07,720 Speaker 2: think that those scenarios work a lot. So I thought 2652 02:20:07,760 --> 02:20:11,279 Speaker 2: to myself, number one, bad signing and quality of receiver, 2653 02:20:11,840 --> 02:20:15,440 Speaker 2: and number two, the fifteen million with the eighteen million 2654 02:20:15,520 --> 02:20:19,920 Speaker 2: guaranteed that's going to Odell Beckham Junior. I'm sure Lamar 2655 02:20:20,000 --> 02:20:21,360 Speaker 2: would like some of that that. 2656 02:20:22,320 --> 02:20:25,720 Speaker 1: You know, you're Jommy Hamstring's a bit that top end 2657 02:20:25,720 --> 02:20:27,280 Speaker 1: because you've already paid roquand Smith. 2658 02:20:27,440 --> 02:20:31,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and none of this, none of this, none of 2659 02:20:31,760 --> 02:20:33,840 Speaker 2: this has anything to do like Lamar not wanting to 2660 02:20:33,879 --> 02:20:37,840 Speaker 2: sign with Baltimore's really has nothing to do with weapons 2661 02:20:37,879 --> 02:20:42,959 Speaker 2: around him. It is all about the money that Lamar wants, guaranteed, 2662 02:20:43,200 --> 02:20:46,320 Speaker 2: That's what it's about. So, Mike, on the surface, immediately, 2663 02:20:46,640 --> 02:20:50,360 Speaker 2: my immediate gut reaction, which I've backed off from since. 2664 02:20:50,440 --> 02:20:52,320 Speaker 2: But I just don't mind telling you what my gut 2665 02:20:52,400 --> 02:20:56,280 Speaker 2: reaction was was bad move. And I don't know how 2666 02:20:56,360 --> 02:20:59,840 Speaker 2: this changes the Lamar situation other than look at what 2667 02:21:00,080 --> 02:21:02,120 Speaker 2: we have here. I do think there's a little bit 2668 02:21:02,160 --> 02:21:04,760 Speaker 2: more of Okay, maybe I see sort of the Ravens 2669 02:21:05,240 --> 02:21:08,400 Speaker 2: finessing this and trying to get Lamar to sign their 2670 02:21:08,520 --> 02:21:12,480 Speaker 2: sort of deal. But I mean, it just it doesn't 2671 02:21:12,520 --> 02:21:15,960 Speaker 2: to me. It doesn't. It doesn't work. I use, you know, 2672 02:21:17,160 --> 02:21:19,880 Speaker 2: I've used a bunch of different examples in how to 2673 02:21:20,480 --> 02:21:23,040 Speaker 2: you know, explain this, and I just it to me, 2674 02:21:23,760 --> 02:21:27,240 Speaker 2: it's it shouldn't be enough to be like, hey, now, 2675 02:21:27,360 --> 02:21:29,640 Speaker 2: Lamar's going to sign with US. I think it could 2676 02:21:29,800 --> 02:21:32,800 Speaker 2: soften some of the bad feelings that the sides have had. 2677 02:21:33,200 --> 02:21:37,480 Speaker 1: Well, I wonder some of it is the Ravens playing 2678 02:21:37,520 --> 02:21:40,720 Speaker 1: the long game, because they've all been talking, you know, 2679 02:21:41,160 --> 02:21:44,160 Speaker 1: trying to speak things into existence. LeVar Ball style of 2680 02:21:44,320 --> 02:21:47,040 Speaker 1: we're two hundred percent in right, we're a one hundred 2681 02:21:47,120 --> 02:21:50,520 Speaker 1: million percent in on what's going to happen here. He's 2682 02:21:50,600 --> 02:21:53,879 Speaker 1: our guy, he'll be under center. And part of it is, well, 2683 02:21:53,920 --> 02:21:58,480 Speaker 1: you haven't had any offers, like anything that went to paper, yep, right, 2684 02:21:58,480 --> 02:22:00,640 Speaker 1: because you've got to go through the processes with the league. 2685 02:22:00,840 --> 02:22:03,360 Speaker 1: So while there may have been conversations and numbers thrown 2686 02:22:03,400 --> 02:22:05,960 Speaker 1: into the air, that's all it is. Like, no formal 2687 02:22:06,160 --> 02:22:09,720 Speaker 1: offer sheet from any team has transpired, which means the 2688 02:22:09,800 --> 02:22:12,240 Speaker 1: Ravens are sitting there. And as I've said all along, 2689 02:22:12,280 --> 02:22:15,080 Speaker 1: it's the best of both worlds for Lamar. It's all right. 2690 02:22:15,120 --> 02:22:16,800 Speaker 1: If you want to go into the marketplace and go 2691 02:22:17,000 --> 02:22:20,920 Speaker 1: prove that this market is really hot for you, have 2692 02:22:21,080 --> 02:22:24,600 Speaker 1: at it, go do it. So Lamar gets what he wants. Unfortunately, 2693 02:22:24,640 --> 02:22:26,320 Speaker 1: he didn't get the ego stroke and he doesn't have 2694 02:22:26,360 --> 02:22:29,640 Speaker 1: an agent. This is where the agent, can you know, 2695 02:22:29,920 --> 02:22:32,879 Speaker 1: give you the massage on the path to just say, hey, 2696 02:22:34,760 --> 02:22:38,440 Speaker 1: tough stuff going on right here. Whereas the Ravens are like, well, 2697 02:22:39,160 --> 02:22:41,640 Speaker 1: we couldn't come to a deal. We made a good offer, 2698 02:22:41,720 --> 02:22:44,000 Speaker 1: whatever that was. Lamar at some point said it was 2699 02:22:44,080 --> 02:22:46,560 Speaker 1: three for one thirty three that he turned down, but 2700 02:22:46,680 --> 02:22:49,200 Speaker 1: he wanted a longer term because three for one thirty 2701 02:22:49,240 --> 02:22:52,280 Speaker 1: three is in market range right when you when you 2702 02:22:52,360 --> 02:22:54,520 Speaker 1: talk about it, just don't have the length. If three 2703 02:22:54,600 --> 02:22:58,600 Speaker 1: for one thirty three guaranteed was the offer, there's the 2704 02:22:58,680 --> 02:22:59,760 Speaker 1: bridge to that and. 2705 02:22:59,800 --> 02:23:02,200 Speaker 2: Why that again goes to my point of I don't 2706 02:23:02,240 --> 02:23:04,280 Speaker 2: know how much Lamar Jackson believes he will get a 2707 02:23:04,320 --> 02:23:06,640 Speaker 2: second contract or a third contract, because this would be 2708 02:23:06,720 --> 02:23:09,879 Speaker 2: a second but another contract after he signs this one. 2709 02:23:10,280 --> 02:23:12,200 Speaker 2: You're not going to sign the three or why wouldn't you. 2710 02:23:12,360 --> 02:23:14,880 Speaker 2: Someone's going to pay after the third year. It's even 2711 02:23:14,959 --> 02:23:15,440 Speaker 2: better for you. 2712 02:23:15,760 --> 02:23:19,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, just just to the idea then that the inevitability 2713 02:23:19,280 --> 02:23:22,080 Speaker 1: is that you're creeping back of having to play on 2714 02:23:22,240 --> 02:23:24,320 Speaker 1: this contract. So the Ravens are trying to make it 2715 02:23:24,400 --> 02:23:27,320 Speaker 1: as soft as landing. Yeah, in the interim as again, look, 2716 02:23:27,360 --> 02:23:30,560 Speaker 1: we brought you a star, whether he's a one two 2717 02:23:31,360 --> 02:23:33,680 Speaker 1: three at this point. For however many games you can play, 2718 02:23:33,760 --> 02:23:37,480 Speaker 1: whether he's got ACLS or not sure the medical marvel 2719 02:23:38,200 --> 02:23:41,000 Speaker 1: running around the field based on what he's trying to sell. 2720 02:23:41,520 --> 02:23:44,560 Speaker 1: But you've made at least an investment to say, all right, 2721 02:23:44,600 --> 02:23:47,039 Speaker 1: you can't tell me it's not that we also changed 2722 02:23:47,080 --> 02:23:50,160 Speaker 1: out the OC so we can make you the quarterback 2723 02:23:50,320 --> 02:23:53,640 Speaker 1: that you wanted to evolve into. In theory, it's all 2724 02:23:53,680 --> 02:23:56,640 Speaker 1: a salesman. And when the push comes to shove, is 2725 02:23:56,720 --> 02:23:58,720 Speaker 1: he really going to leave thirty three million dollars on 2726 02:23:58,840 --> 02:23:59,920 Speaker 1: the table on principle? 2727 02:24:01,440 --> 02:24:03,520 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think he's going to be able 2728 02:24:03,560 --> 02:24:06,760 Speaker 2: to unless you you know, you're doing this sitting out 2729 02:24:06,879 --> 02:24:10,240 Speaker 2: for you know, however long, and then make sure you 2730 02:24:10,360 --> 02:24:11,480 Speaker 2: get your year accrued. 2731 02:24:11,640 --> 02:24:14,320 Speaker 1: The old week ten, week eleven show up gunn. 2732 02:24:14,440 --> 02:24:17,720 Speaker 2: But I just you know, to me, it just it 2733 02:24:17,840 --> 02:24:21,320 Speaker 2: may soften the blow, but you know, I use this 2734 02:24:21,480 --> 02:24:24,560 Speaker 2: reference before, Like on on TikTok, there's all these videos 2735 02:24:24,640 --> 02:24:28,600 Speaker 2: of like employers, you know, bringing in treats and stuff 2736 02:24:28,680 --> 02:24:32,600 Speaker 2: like that, trying to soften the blow of like, all right, 2737 02:24:32,959 --> 02:24:35,800 Speaker 2: this is what you aren't getting compensation wise, you know, 2738 02:24:35,879 --> 02:24:38,480 Speaker 2: And it's the boss walking in with a you know, 2739 02:24:38,840 --> 02:24:41,120 Speaker 2: smiley face and he's got a box of donuts or 2740 02:24:41,120 --> 02:24:44,880 Speaker 2: a pizza or whatever, and like that's what this is 2741 02:24:44,959 --> 02:24:48,400 Speaker 2: to me is, look, we've got you, Odell Beckham Junior. 2742 02:24:48,800 --> 02:24:52,400 Speaker 2: We spent the money on Odell Beckham Junior, and here 2743 02:24:52,560 --> 02:24:54,560 Speaker 2: you go, this is going to soften the blow. But really, 2744 02:24:55,080 --> 02:24:56,080 Speaker 2: how far does that go? 2745 02:24:56,879 --> 02:24:57,040 Speaker 1: You know? 2746 02:24:57,360 --> 02:25:01,040 Speaker 2: Do you? Do you? I mean, if you're Lamar Jackson again, 2747 02:25:01,080 --> 02:25:03,120 Speaker 2: what would you rather have? Would you rather have that 2748 02:25:03,959 --> 02:25:06,920 Speaker 2: contract that the Ravens offered you and OBJ or the 2749 02:25:07,000 --> 02:25:09,120 Speaker 2: one that you want? And you would rather have the 2750 02:25:09,200 --> 02:25:10,960 Speaker 2: one you want? So that's why I just don't think 2751 02:25:11,000 --> 02:25:16,800 Speaker 2: that Odell Beckham Junior really has any effect on Lamar's status. 2752 02:25:16,920 --> 02:25:19,400 Speaker 2: Maybe when it gets down to it, it makes the 2753 02:25:20,320 --> 02:25:23,880 Speaker 2: signing of the franchise tag less of a sting. But 2754 02:25:24,040 --> 02:25:26,320 Speaker 2: in the grand scheme of things, if Lamar is staying 2755 02:25:26,400 --> 02:25:28,440 Speaker 2: true to his word, it shouldn't have mattered one bit. 2756 02:25:28,680 --> 02:25:31,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and at this point for Lamar Jackson and again, 2757 02:25:31,879 --> 02:25:33,720 Speaker 1: go get go get your money right. No matter what 2758 02:25:34,000 --> 02:25:37,320 Speaker 1: job you're in, if you can figure out how to 2759 02:25:37,360 --> 02:25:39,880 Speaker 1: walk across the street and make it two percent more, 2760 02:25:39,959 --> 02:25:42,360 Speaker 1: one percent more, whatever's going to make you quote unquote 2761 02:25:42,400 --> 02:25:45,240 Speaker 1: happier have at it right, all things being equal, we 2762 02:25:45,240 --> 02:25:51,599 Speaker 1: all want to get paid more, right, But you recognize systems, coaches, familiarity. 2763 02:25:51,840 --> 02:25:55,680 Speaker 1: There's value to that. Yeah, institutional percentage, there is value 2764 02:25:55,720 --> 02:25:58,920 Speaker 1: to that. You're also a guy who's missed chunks of 2765 02:25:58,959 --> 02:26:02,600 Speaker 1: the last two seasons injury, yep, And a lot about 2766 02:26:02,680 --> 02:26:07,000 Speaker 1: your toughness and who you were was questioned to where 2767 02:26:07,000 --> 02:26:10,160 Speaker 1: you had to come out and defend yourself. Yeah, to say, hey, 2768 02:26:10,160 --> 02:26:12,520 Speaker 1: it was a real injury. I wasn't just sitting out 2769 02:26:12,640 --> 02:26:16,080 Speaker 1: because I was sitting out to make you watch pro bowler. 2770 02:26:15,920 --> 02:26:18,640 Speaker 2: Snoop, if everything is If everything is equal, and the 2771 02:26:18,720 --> 02:26:21,160 Speaker 2: Ravens going to the season and Lamar Jackson's there, sends 2772 02:26:21,200 --> 02:26:24,040 Speaker 2: his franchise tender, and Odell Beckham Junior is there, and 2773 02:26:24,200 --> 02:26:28,320 Speaker 2: let's just say, Odell Beckham Junior stinks? Who's that going 2774 02:26:28,400 --> 02:26:31,800 Speaker 2: to be on? It's my question do you say that 2775 02:26:31,959 --> 02:26:34,840 Speaker 2: OBJ doesn't have it anymore because he has had two 2776 02:26:34,920 --> 02:26:37,920 Speaker 2: ACL surgeries and you know, was out all of last season, 2777 02:26:38,840 --> 02:26:42,480 Speaker 2: or do you say, look, Lamar couldn't even make it 2778 02:26:42,560 --> 02:26:43,160 Speaker 2: work with Obj. 2779 02:26:43,560 --> 02:26:46,800 Speaker 1: It's a tough bet, right, Yes, as we know the 2780 02:26:46,879 --> 02:26:48,240 Speaker 1: quarterback usually wears it. 2781 02:26:48,600 --> 02:26:50,640 Speaker 2: Yes, and I think that would be the case here, 2782 02:26:51,200 --> 02:26:54,120 Speaker 2: which would be another reason why Lamar probably shouldn't be 2783 02:26:54,200 --> 02:26:56,680 Speaker 2: as maybe thrilled about the signing. 2784 02:26:56,520 --> 02:26:59,520 Speaker 1: Unless he was. There was a good fan theory posted 2785 02:26:59,560 --> 02:27:02,800 Speaker 1: that he was trying to get his guy paid well, 2786 02:27:03,160 --> 02:27:08,080 Speaker 1: so he'e So I thought it was kind of fun 2787 02:27:08,200 --> 02:27:11,120 Speaker 1: and they went out to the club to celebrate. But 2788 02:27:11,640 --> 02:27:14,360 Speaker 1: to your point going back as to who takes a blame, 2789 02:27:14,600 --> 02:27:17,480 Speaker 1: because think about the Alan Robinson whatever else other than 2790 02:27:17,520 --> 02:27:23,360 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh potentially walking away. He gets a free pass 2791 02:27:23,560 --> 02:27:27,400 Speaker 1: from every movie because he's a genius. Sure like nothing 2792 02:27:27,720 --> 02:27:29,720 Speaker 1: can work. Never never mind they didn't get a new 2793 02:27:29,800 --> 02:27:32,400 Speaker 1: back or anything for Matthew Stafford. 2794 02:27:33,280 --> 02:27:36,400 Speaker 2: No, but there has been success like that, like even. 2795 02:27:36,440 --> 02:27:39,160 Speaker 1: Know you've got success. So it was all right, this 2796 02:27:39,280 --> 02:27:42,800 Speaker 1: didn't work and we'll push it on down the line. 2797 02:27:42,959 --> 02:27:46,240 Speaker 1: Hooper Cup got hurt beat, we did excuse making, whereas 2798 02:27:46,280 --> 02:27:48,240 Speaker 1: in Baltimore, I don't know you're gonna get the same pass. 2799 02:27:48,360 --> 02:27:51,640 Speaker 2: Correct. Yeah, I agree with that, especially with the current regime. 2800 02:27:52,160 --> 02:27:54,960 Speaker 2: You know, the Joe Flacco Super Bowl was not more 2801 02:27:55,000 --> 02:27:55,800 Speaker 2: than ten years ago. 2802 02:27:56,160 --> 02:28:00,840 Speaker 1: Nicely done and DaCosta getting in front of microphones. My 2803 02:28:00,959 --> 02:28:04,120 Speaker 1: word of advice, don't allow him to do it. Every 2804 02:28:04,200 --> 02:28:09,320 Speaker 1: opportunity is caused nothing but chaos and turmoil, which is 2805 02:28:09,360 --> 02:28:11,520 Speaker 1: I think part of the reason he got back into 2806 02:28:11,560 --> 02:28:16,400 Speaker 1: giving Odell Beckham Junior fifteen million dollars that public slaplot 2807 02:28:16,560 --> 02:28:19,640 Speaker 1: with Mishad Bateman and everything. I don't think it worked 2808 02:28:19,640 --> 02:28:22,920 Speaker 1: to his advantage as it were. He's Dan byerl by 2809 02:28:22,959 --> 02:28:26,320 Speaker 1: Carmen here, Fox Sports Sunday, Fox Sports Radio fighting over 2810 02:28:26,520 --> 02:28:30,120 Speaker 1: hair length in the Bronx and did you watch this 2811 02:28:30,280 --> 02:28:34,680 Speaker 1: competition quarterbacks and other NFL stars trying to apply their 2812 02:28:34,720 --> 02:28:38,880 Speaker 1: where's elsewhere? Yeah, get in there and sell, sell, sell. 2813 02:28:39,000 --> 02:28:42,160 Speaker 6: The Aaron Fox Sports Radio scored thirty eight times, the 2814 02:28:42,240 --> 02:28:46,760 Speaker 6: second highest scoring playoff debut in NBA history. Today's playoff 2815 02:28:46,840 --> 02:28:50,119 Speaker 6: action tips off at three pm Eastern as two seed 2816 02:28:50,280 --> 02:28:54,720 Speaker 6: Memphis hosts the seventh seeded Los Angeles Lakers. And one 2817 02:28:54,920 --> 02:28:59,720 Speaker 6: of the main trending topics in America right now is 2818 02:29:00,160 --> 02:29:03,920 Speaker 6: Scott Foster. Scott Foster is going to be the referee 2819 02:29:04,080 --> 02:29:07,520 Speaker 6: for Game one between the Lakers and the Grizzlies, and 2820 02:29:07,600 --> 02:29:10,240 Speaker 6: I'm not sure it's a great thing when the referee 2821 02:29:10,360 --> 02:29:12,560 Speaker 6: of a game is trending three hours before. 2822 02:29:12,600 --> 02:29:14,560 Speaker 1: It's a step off, but there you have it. Scott Foster. 2823 02:29:14,800 --> 02:29:17,240 Speaker 2: Always good when you know the ref's names, you know, 2824 02:29:17,280 --> 02:29:19,120 Speaker 2: and there are a bunch in the NBA that you know. 2825 02:29:20,160 --> 02:29:23,400 Speaker 6: I mean, we had, you know, Dick Bavetta, Joey Crawford 2826 02:29:23,480 --> 02:29:26,760 Speaker 6: back in the day, real distinctive guys, jac O'Donnell. And 2827 02:29:26,840 --> 02:29:29,119 Speaker 6: now it seems that the only time we know the referee' 2828 02:29:29,200 --> 02:29:31,640 Speaker 6: names are because they are infamous with a particular fans. 2829 02:29:31,760 --> 02:29:34,520 Speaker 2: Let's settle lebron. Foster's probably had the most impact on 2830 02:29:34,600 --> 02:29:36,480 Speaker 2: these playoffs over the last decade, right. 2831 02:29:36,440 --> 02:29:38,880 Speaker 1: Probably a good yeah, good call. Hey, look into the 2832 02:29:39,000 --> 02:29:40,840 Speaker 1: camera and tell me how you're going to overturn this 2833 02:29:41,080 --> 02:29:42,480 Speaker 1: call in front of the home crowd. 2834 02:29:42,720 --> 02:29:43,040 Speaker 2: Let's go. 2835 02:29:44,200 --> 02:29:47,840 Speaker 1: Foster could do that, Yes, Foster, because he's got the 2836 02:29:47,959 --> 02:29:49,359 Speaker 1: ice in his veins. 2837 02:29:50,640 --> 02:29:54,000 Speaker 2: Which, by the way, was it was you know, I like, 2838 02:29:54,200 --> 02:29:57,120 Speaker 2: I like unified celebration, so I didn't mind that. 2839 02:29:57,280 --> 02:29:59,280 Speaker 1: I thought you might have been sending the wrong message 2840 02:29:59,640 --> 02:30:01,800 Speaker 1: to you. Got to think of the children. 2841 02:30:01,840 --> 02:30:04,640 Speaker 2: You thought that they were injecting some sort of drugs. 2842 02:30:04,840 --> 02:30:08,800 Speaker 1: Potentially, Yes, the opportunity was there, ilo you got anything else, 2843 02:30:09,760 --> 02:30:13,320 Speaker 1: We just just looking through the Scott Foster mentions. That's it. 2844 02:30:13,720 --> 02:30:16,240 Speaker 1: There you go at Isaac Lohancron where you find him 2845 02:30:16,280 --> 02:30:18,360 Speaker 1: on Twitter. Thanks Ilo, you bet you know. 2846 02:30:18,520 --> 02:30:21,000 Speaker 2: I didn't realize it, and I probably should have. But 2847 02:30:21,040 --> 02:30:25,840 Speaker 2: in that Netflix Tim Donaghy piece like that's you know, 2848 02:30:25,959 --> 02:30:30,320 Speaker 2: like when when Scottie Barnes earlier the season called you know, 2849 02:30:30,440 --> 02:30:34,200 Speaker 2: Scott Foster cheater. There's a reason why then he got 2850 02:30:34,280 --> 02:30:39,000 Speaker 2: tossed because of when you would see some of the 2851 02:30:39,680 --> 02:30:42,600 Speaker 2: possible connections that that could have occurred. Record is the 2852 02:30:42,640 --> 02:30:44,199 Speaker 2: reason why he's sensitive. 2853 02:30:44,080 --> 02:30:47,400 Speaker 1: Right, But records with players and certain officials like yes, 2854 02:30:48,120 --> 02:30:52,120 Speaker 1: Chris Paul as it flowed like there's so many of 2855 02:30:52,200 --> 02:30:56,080 Speaker 1: those stories and as you alluded to earlier in the program, 2856 02:30:56,440 --> 02:30:59,840 Speaker 1: once you got all these gambling ties and everything that 2857 02:31:00,080 --> 02:31:02,440 Speaker 1: flow through. And it's interesting because in Europe they're starting 2858 02:31:02,480 --> 02:31:05,200 Speaker 1: to back away a little bit. Is the latest in 2859 02:31:05,400 --> 02:31:09,160 Speaker 1: terms of business propositions that wondering, you know, the life 2860 02:31:09,240 --> 02:31:13,119 Speaker 1: cycle here with everybody hot for it, now, how quickly 2861 02:31:13,320 --> 02:31:16,680 Speaker 1: maybe that turns because of all these different human elements 2862 02:31:17,280 --> 02:31:21,240 Speaker 1: and persuasions or potential biases that come up. 2863 02:31:21,360 --> 02:31:23,680 Speaker 2: The NFL is so popular that you know, the referees 2864 02:31:23,760 --> 02:31:26,440 Speaker 2: because you see them every single week and they are 2865 02:31:26,520 --> 02:31:29,840 Speaker 2: talking directly to you. So there is something to that. 2866 02:31:30,400 --> 02:31:32,360 Speaker 2: But like there's a reason why in baseball we only 2867 02:31:32,440 --> 02:31:37,000 Speaker 2: know Angel Hernandez. There's there's a reason for that. Like 2868 02:31:37,120 --> 02:31:40,120 Speaker 2: we know, you know, we know when Gene steratare Is 2869 02:31:40,440 --> 02:31:43,520 Speaker 2: you know, was talking to us or you know Carl 2870 02:31:43,560 --> 02:31:47,440 Speaker 2: Scheffer's or whoever. Like we know these these faces because 2871 02:31:47,480 --> 02:31:51,040 Speaker 2: they're speaking to us and we see them every Sunday. Yeah. Absolutely, 2872 02:31:51,120 --> 02:31:53,600 Speaker 2: Now we know Sean Hockey, like we know, we know 2873 02:31:53,920 --> 02:31:58,480 Speaker 2: the referees. But when when you aren't talking directly aside 2874 02:31:58,560 --> 02:32:03,400 Speaker 2: from entering Mike Carrman's NBA referee boot camp for speaking 2875 02:32:03,480 --> 02:32:07,440 Speaker 2: into a camera and microphone and explaining what happened, that's 2876 02:32:07,520 --> 02:32:09,680 Speaker 2: the only time that you really directly see those guys. 2877 02:32:09,760 --> 02:32:12,640 Speaker 1: Don't be afraid you made the call. Hey, as we 2878 02:32:12,760 --> 02:32:16,119 Speaker 1: come to you live from the tirac dot Com studios. 2879 02:32:16,160 --> 02:32:19,400 Speaker 1: He's Dan Byron, Mike Harmon coming up next.

Remember 2883 02:32:30,320 --> 02:32:33,120 Speaker 1: the mantra that they've always told us is think of 2884 02:32:33,240 --> 02:32:36,600 Speaker 1: the children.
