1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up? 2 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 1: Straight Fire Fan with me Jason McIntyre Street Fire Monday, 3 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: July twelfth. What a sports weekend. We just said, like, 4 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: this is gonna be the easiest podcast ever because this 5 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: is seriously maybe the best sports weekend of the year. 6 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: Not an exaggeration. The amount of sports consumed over the 7 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: weekend that was high level stuff was just incredible. Soccer, 8 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:41,160 Speaker 1: m m A, NBA Finals, my kids, sports leagues. Yes, yes, 9 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: I will touch on that, and of course I probably 10 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,880 Speaker 1: should start the podcast by just quickly noting, yes, I 11 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: dropped an announcement on the Saturday radio show. Uh, those 12 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: of you who listen to that regularly or listen to 13 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: the pod, No, I am officially not doing the Saturday 14 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: radio show anymore, have been doing it for six years. 15 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: Next Sturday or this Saturday, will be the final Saturday 16 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: radio show I do for Fox Sports Radio. I'll just 17 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: say right off the top, because I got some messages 18 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 1: from some media people said, well, you're you're not doing 19 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 1: the show anymore. What's going on. It's not a big deal. 20 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: There's no story here, there's nothing that interesting. Bottom line. 21 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: I have loved the Saturday radio show for six years. 22 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: It's a ton of fun. It helped un ramped me 23 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: to getting ready for FS one and Takes and of 24 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: course Straight Fire now, which is about hitting the one 25 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: year mark. And it's funny because like when I started 26 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: the radio show, you know, I had like no experience. 27 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: I had been doing a Yahoo Sports radio show for 28 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 1: one year, right, which was digital only, and then Fox 29 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: is like, oh yeah, we have a weekend spot open 30 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: D one. I was like, yeah, hell yeah. Of course 31 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: my agent helped facilitate that, the great Matt Kramer Um. 32 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 1: But bottom line is like I've been doing the radio 33 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: show for a while and I still enjoy it. It 34 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: is a lot of fun. But Straight Fire kind of 35 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: changed the game. Right about a year ago, I start 36 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: to doing five days a week this podcast, and like 37 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking on this for five days and then again 38 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 1: on Saturday. Just so that was like kind of one 39 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 1: I've been you know, I'm talking all the time in 40 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: addition to doing stuff for Fox and FS one and 41 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: filling in for Dan Patrick and on the Odd Couple 42 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: and you know, all these shows. It's like, I know, 43 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: you guys like hearing me, but having a day a 44 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: Saturday back working Saturdays for six straight years, you know, 45 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: first of all problems, but it kind of wears on 46 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: you a little bit. Um. You know, we moved out 47 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: here to l A, sacrificed a lot of Friday nights. 48 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 1: Not that I've got a schedule that's super booked. You know, 49 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: I got the wife and kids, like hashtag dad life, 50 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: but a lot of Friday night sacrifice for it's like, oh, 51 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 1: we're going out, Yeah, we got this thing, but I 52 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: gotta do the radio show at six am, so I'm 53 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: not going to be drinking um. And then of course 54 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 1: Saturday mornings waking up at six o'clock for six years. Listen, 55 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: I enjoy the show. I'm not complaining um during football 56 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: season having the Saturday radio show this past football season, 57 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: I know it was weird, given the whole uh COVID situation, 58 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: Like college football wasn't normal. Um, NFL was even scaled 59 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: back a little. Like football seasons are tough when you're grinding. 60 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: I mean again, this is a first world problem. I 61 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: love this problem. Tough football season five months of basically 62 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: six or seven days a week of work. Um. Sundays 63 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: are all work, um obviously, and then Saturdays are pretty 64 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: busy and then you're working during the week, so it's 65 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 1: you don't really get much time off. So I figured 66 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: now would be a good time to pull the plug 67 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: on it. And uh, obviously I'm extremely thankful to the 68 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: guys at Fox Sports Radio for that Saturday opportunity. I 69 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: will still fill in on Fox Sports Radio. Obviously, Straight 70 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: Fires going nowhere. I might as well tell you guys, Uh, 71 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, the contract was just re upped, uh for 72 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: straight Fire, so you will get me for at least 73 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: another year, hopefully many many more as a podcast continues 74 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: to grow and be successful. And yes, I've gotten your 75 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: text a lot of ads, Jason. Yes, you know, the 76 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: show's growing. This is what things do. You start them, 77 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: be a water them. Uh you see the growth, um, 78 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: and we're popping and very excited about it. Now, let's 79 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: quickly quickly get back to sports because it was a 80 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: pretty sports epic sports weekend. I'll start. Let's just go 81 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: and order, shall we. So you know, Saturday, obviously you 82 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: had the big Argentina Brazil soccer match. And I don't 83 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 1: know about you guys, you know I'm heavy into soccer, 84 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: and Messy versus nam Ar was incredible. I mean the 85 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 1: drama was unbelievable and made my kids watch it with me. 86 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: We did go shoot hoops at halftime, yes that's true, 87 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: but um, I'm just so happy for Messy. He had 88 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: been over for nine with Argentina in major tournaments. Over nine. 89 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: The guy finally want it was awesome. Uh Messy, you know, 90 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: he did flub an easy goal there at the end, 91 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: but they won one nothing and as soon as the 92 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: final whistle happens, if you watch the replay, Messy is 93 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 1: like on his knees and he buries his head in 94 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: his hands and his whole team starts rushing to him. 95 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: You know, it was just an exciting moment from see, 96 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: I'm so happy for the guy. Awesome when um, you know, 97 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: obviously neymar was tremendous and that game was just awesome. 98 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: But that, like for me, started the sports weekend and 99 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: then of course Saturday night, um, the big Connor McGregor 100 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: fight against Dustin Pourier. And listen if you heard my 101 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: Saturday radio show and you heard this podcast, we interviewed 102 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: Mike Coppinger on Friday. I didn't like Connor McGregor. I'm 103 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: I'm out on him. I told you the guy was washed. 104 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: I bet against him, Dustin Pourier. I don't want to 105 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: say he put him in a body bag, but I 106 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: mean this guy I thought ended McGregor's career like six 107 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 1: months ago. Obviously he's a huge payday from McGregory is 108 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: still gonna win. But broken ankle, first round done. And 109 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: I know there's some people out there, you guys were 110 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: in my mentions, Oh it was a freak broken ankle, Like, 111 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: come on that he would have won the fight. Like 112 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: really every judge had Pourier head on the scorecard. I mean, 113 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 1: if you just simply look at McGregor, he got kind 114 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: of worked there in the first round. He just isn't 115 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: the same guy that he was. Go listen to what 116 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: we said with coppinger Um on Friday. I'm telling you guys, like, 117 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: it's tough once you get to that level and you've 118 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 1: got a net worth over well over a hundremillion dollars, 119 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,679 Speaker 1: Like what are we doing? Why is he still getting 120 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: in the Rent Pride ego? Because he's not the same 121 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: fighter he was five years ago. I don't pretend to 122 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: be the biggest UFC m M A guy I'm not, 123 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: but Connor McGregor is just not the same dude that 124 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: he was. Yes, he's a huge draw. Yes, I had 125 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: friends in Vegas. Yes, it looked pretty incredible over the weekend. 126 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm sorry, Like it's a rap for McGregor. Um, 127 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: he's just not the same guy anymore. And he's probably 128 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: gonna have a bunch of more fights and win a 129 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 1: ton of money and enjoy uh setting up his family 130 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: and his kids and his kids kids and his uncles 131 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: and answer everybody for the rest of their lives. That's 132 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: how money much money's he may he's made and will 133 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: continue to make. But as a fighter, like, I'm not 134 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: tuning in for that. So then Sunday comes around and England, 135 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: Italy and folks like that was the polar opposite of 136 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: Brazil Argentina. If you watched it, Um, Brazil Argentina had 137 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: people flopping and acting left and right, like people were 138 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: on the ground every like three or four minutes. Oh, 139 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: we're just trying to draw cards and fouls and taking dives. 140 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: It was a little annoying, but that's South America soccer, Like, 141 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: there's those some flare there from those two countries trying 142 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: to draw the fouls. The acting um Italy is known 143 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: for it a lot. I did not really see a 144 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: lot of it from Italy against England. England scores the 145 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: early goal, and I just hated what they did. They 146 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: went into a shell defensively. You see this in the NFL. 147 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: Right team gets out to a fourteen nothing lead in 148 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: the first quarter, you think, oh it's over, they're gonna coast, 149 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: and they just go into like a prevent offense and 150 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: they just didn't want to screw it up in England. 151 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: You know, eventually Cave did at least scored a goal, 152 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: and then England loses in p k's And I'm not 153 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: gonna sit here and break down. Uh the manager's decision 154 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: with the subs with like three minutes left in extra time. 155 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: If it was that he put on two dudes who 156 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: barely broke a sweat in extra time just for case 157 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: both of them missed, It's like, Wow, what a bad 158 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: decision that was. Sterling didn't kick, Greenish came on late, 159 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: didn't kick. And now I'm going too deep into soccer 160 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: and I've lost some people. I'm just telling you that 161 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: game was tremendous and I just felt so gutted for 162 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 1: the young kids Sacca than it was the nineteen year 163 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: old who misses a p K the fifth and five. 164 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: How do you put a nineteen year old teenager to 165 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: take the final p K? That's beyond me. But the 166 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: teenager gets his shot blocked. The Italian keeper stand up. 167 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: No celebration, it's just mean mugging like, yeah, this is 168 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: what I do, this is what I do.

If 180 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: you listen to this podcast on Friday, I told you guys, 181 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: the Bucks were locked city. They went by twenty easy cover. 182 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: I hope you guys cashed. That was easy money. Never 183 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: a sweat in the second half only bet I lost. 184 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: I went three and one. Uh player props was that 185 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: guy Chris Middleton. I'm not gonna be spitched his name 186 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: because they wont uh fifteen points in the first half. 187 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: He's well on his way to go in over twenty 188 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: four and a half. You knew it was a Middleton game. 189 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: He takes four shots in the second half, Like, what 190 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: are you doing? Dude? I know it was the Honest Show, 191 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: and we'll get to the Honest and will gas him up. 192 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: The Honest was great, but Middleton is frustrating to bet on. 193 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: I think it's probably best if I just tap out 194 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: on the roller coaster ride that is Chris Middleton. I 195 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: can't figure him out. This was game was set up 196 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: for him, great first half and he just when m 197 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 1: I a offensively Like that is the Chris Middleton experience, 198 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: vintage Chris Middleton's. Um, it almost feels like Game four. 199 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 1: He's gonna have like a nine point game in the 200 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: Bucks are gonna lose. But we'll get to that uh tomorrow, 201 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: um because they have an extra day off before the 202 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: game on Wednesday, so um. Actually, you know, speaking of basketball, 203 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 1: I need to point out this is the opening weekend 204 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: of uh summer league out here in southern California for 205 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 1: my kids. And I told you guys, I'm not coaching 206 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: this summer because you know, I had helped the kids 207 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: out and coached during boys and girls during quarantine, we 208 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: did quarantine hoops, and I just I need to step 209 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: back a little. Maybe the kids were getting sick of 210 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: getting yelled at by their dad, so let's have a 211 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: coach oll at them. And um, so one of my buddies, 212 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: I basically begged him, hey, hey, hey, draft my kids please, 213 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, come on, and he got both of them, 214 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: and uh, the younger team of rising third graders is 215 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,599 Speaker 1: pretty stacked. They have one of the best teams in 216 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: the league. My daughter made her debut. She didn't fine, 217 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: you know, a little more physical than she expected. But 218 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: you know I was. I was proud of her. Uh 219 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: just thrilled happy to see her out there. I know 220 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: you guys follow me on the gram. You see me 221 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: putting the videos out. She will score, she will improve, um, 222 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: and this is gonna make her better for third grade 223 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: girls basketball. You know, me and another dad, another dad 224 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: coached them undefeated last year and um, a lot of 225 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: people want to pop poach our players. Uh. We have 226 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: a lot of parents saying, hey, I need to draft 227 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: my kid. Um, my daughter is gonna get a great 228 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: experience with a good coach right now and a good team. 229 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: She's playing with two you know, basically club players on 230 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: their team. Uh, and a couple of other kids are 231 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 1: either club or close to it. So she's gonna she's 232 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: only gonna get better my son's team. Um, we're missing 233 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 1: our best player, and you know, we're facing a team 234 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 1: that I don't know how on earth they pulled this off, 235 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: but you know, they got the last pick in the 236 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: draft and it was some kid nobody knew. And he 237 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: turns out he's a great older than everybody. He's a 238 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: he's in the same age, but a great older, and 239 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: he's like a club player. And this kid is out 240 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 1: here going behind his back getting through our d defense, 241 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: last pick in the draft because nobody knew him, and 242 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: he's definitely gonna be one of the ted best players 243 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: in the league. And like, you know, we we we 244 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, took it on the chin in the second 245 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: half and they pulled away, but uh, you know, shout 246 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: out to the referees who were listening, and we're awful. 247 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 1: We didn't shoot one free fill the other team at 248 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 1: about twelve. Anyways, back out of youth basketball quickly to 249 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: the to the Milwaukee Bucks. Um, Like, what is there 250 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: left to say about Janas? I mean, he is putting 251 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: his stamp on the series. He is the only story 252 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: right now in the NBA Finals. Um, I'll get the 253 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory out of the way. Your referee, I should 254 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: I should I even talk about the Scott Foster stuff? 255 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: Or no? Should we just ignore? I don't. I don't 256 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 1: know what you guys let me know. Do I need 257 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: to talk about the referees because Scott Foster and Chris 258 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: Paul have a major history. And Scott Foster reft Game 259 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: three and Chris Paul He's now oh and twelve in 260 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: his last twelve playoff games ref by Scott Foster. That's 261 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: a real stat. Now again, lot goes into that. Sure, 262 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: there's been a ton of injuries. This was a blowout, 263 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 1: so Scott Foster didn't factor in. But Monty Williams, if 264 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: you guys listen to the postgame presser, this is the 265 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: legit stuff from the Sun's coach. I'm not gonna complain 266 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: about the fouls guys, I'm not gonna talk about the refs. 267 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: We attempted sixteen free throws. Janice attempted seventeen and then 268 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: he did like the emoji with the zipper over your lips. No, 269 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: I just added that for effect. But that's a real stat. 270 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: If you remember in the in the first game, the 271 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 1: Suns were like twenty six from the line and that 272 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: was like a fund stat. They missed one late in 273 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: the game. I think it was Jay Crowder. And in 274 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: the last two games, the Bucks are imposing their will 275 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: inside specifically, honest, and this is the stat that Monty 276 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: Williams has to kind of figure out how to combat. 277 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: I don't have an answer for him yet. Offensive rebounds 278 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: are killing Phoenix the Bucks game to eighteen to eleven 279 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: on the offensive glass. Game three, thirteen to six. They're 280 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: just giving up too many second chance points that you 281 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: can't have that happen. Okay, The Sun starting lineup in 282 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: game three had four offensive rebounds. Bobby Portis, he of 283 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: the big Eyes, came off the bench and at four 284 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: offensive rebounds, honest himself at four. They're getting killed on 285 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: the second chance points. And you know, I predicted Sons 286 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: in four maybe five you know, we we didn't know 287 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: the Yanna situation. He's obviously healthy, so that significantly changes 288 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: the equation. UM. But through three games, the combined score 289 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: is Phoenix six Milwaukee, yet all three games have been 290 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: double figure results. Very weird series. UM. I don't want 291 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: to make too much of this Son's loss because I 292 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: told you what was gonna happen. UM, it was very 293 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: obvious that Devin Booker was gonna struggle three or fourteen, 294 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: kind of lost his mojo in the last two games. 295 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna lie to you. I believe Game 296 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: four is one of the most toughest games handicap in 297 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: the series. And we'll dive deeper into it because logic said, 298 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 1: you knew that down oh two, the Bucks were gonna 299 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: come out and win. That was gonna happen. The Suns 300 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: are clearly, in my opinion, the better team. That being 301 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: said this bench situation, Cameron Johnson came off and was 302 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: very good. Cameron Payne a little less good, but he 303 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: was solid. Tory Craig did play fifteen minutes after getting 304 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: run over by Jannison. Game two, Troy Craig two points 305 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: one of five shooting minus twelve. He was on the 306 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: court for fifteen minutes and he was minus twelve. By 307 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: the way, side, note to my buddy who's coaching my 308 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: kids and listens to this podcast, I wonder if I 309 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: should do plus minus stats in our league. It was 310 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: that a little too harsh, that too too serious, probably 311 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: too serious because plus minus is big. This is funny. 312 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: We played a team, my son's team played a team, 313 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: and I knew a lot of the parents on the 314 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: other team. One of them I played in the soccer 315 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: tournament with a few weeks back. Remember we were the 316 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: defending champions and we didn't get out of the play 317 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: m stage. It's disappointing. But the dad that I saw yesterday, 318 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: his kid was playing against my son, and he instantly 319 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: reminded me Mac Man. He was like hyping me up 320 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: to this other dad that we were talking to. Oh, 321 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 1: Mac had the best plus minus on our soccer team 322 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: in that tournament. He would come on the field and 323 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: because of like my energy and hustle and just tirelessness, 324 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: I would just stir up energy and it would result 325 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: in goals for us. Was there it was a turnover um, 326 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: just mashing up and making making them get out of 327 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: their comfort zone, and I would just be able to 328 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: help our team generate points and then we'll come off 329 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: the field. And you know, disrespect to the other guys 330 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: who do listen to the podcast and our hustlers. They 331 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: just I'm in a little I don't mind just going 332 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: balls to the wall, sprinting and going hardcore running at people, um, 333 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: not to foul them, but just to make them, uh 334 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: kind of make mistakes when you pressure people, what do 335 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: you say pressure burst pipes. And again we're talking about 336 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: a dad's soccer tournament where if you start running at 337 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 1: a fullback who's in his deep, in his own end, 338 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: chances are he might be like, oh, flubb it, okay, 339 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: this is not something like awesome guy who's gonna dance 340 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 1: around you in a heartbeat. There's a couple of those, 341 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: but I don't run directly at them. Um. And plus 342 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: minus is a really important stat. It's I think it's 343 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: huge in the NBA, and like, I know it can 344 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: be weird, Like if you're on the court with Jannae, 345 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: obviously you're gonna be huge. But like Cameron Payne five 346 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: minutes off the bench minus eighteen and he's a really 347 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: nice player. Now the Bucks bench got them killed. No Dario, 348 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: Sarah's hurts um and and again Tory Craig was not himself. 349 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: I don't think you can play Frank Kominski fourteen minutes 350 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: um to me game four since you're on the road 351 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: and there's the extra day arrest. Game four feels like 352 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,719 Speaker 1: a game where Chris, Paul, d book and Eton are 353 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: all over forty minutes. By the way, eighton Paul and 354 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: Booker over forty minutes in game two. Aton was twenty 355 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: four minutes in game three, CP three thirty four, Booker 356 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: twenty nine. So I do think that Monty Williams did 357 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: a good job not playing them as much. By the way, 358 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: Mikhail Bridges came back to Earth, I think he had 359 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: twenty seven in game two. He had four in game three. 360 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 361 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Fox Sports 362 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: Radio dot com and within the I Heart Radio app 363 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: search f s R to listen live, and then you 364 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: look at the bucks and like listen. Bobby Portis was 365 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: a factor off the bench. Pat Conaton was pretty good 366 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: off the bench, but it was really the Jhanna Show, 367 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: and you know Jane and six Um and I feel bad. 368 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: I probably should apologize to him because if you remember 369 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 1: last round when he was struggling against the nets, I said, oh, 370 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: that's right, James Harden got it right on Jhannest. Jannest 371 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: has no skills. He doesn't. He's just large and long 372 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: and he dunks on people. That's all he does. And 373 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 1: I guess the honest heard because it's tough to go 374 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: back to back games in the NBA Finals forty and ted. 375 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: The list of people who have done that, Are you ready, 376 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: I've got to find it on the ner. Okay, here 377 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: we go. The list of players in NBA history with 378 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: forty and ten and back to back finals games. Janice 379 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: and Shack Shock in two thousand with Kobe. I believe 380 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: it was against the Sixers whoever they were against in 381 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: two thousand. I don't think that was the Pacers might 382 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: have been, um, but like, that's pretty good company for 383 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: your honest. By the way, Janice has faced his sons 384 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: five times this year. His point totals thirty three twenty 385 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: twenty was the game one where um, he was coming 386 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: off the injury. We didn't even know how much he 387 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: would play. Definitely was not or even close then he 388 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: had forty two and forty one, so three or the 389 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: five games he's gone for forty plus. Now this is 390 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 1: where it gets interesting. How the hell do you stop 391 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: your honest in Game four on the road. You want 392 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 1: to win this series, you gotta stop him now. I 393 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: thought Jay Crowder did a great job with the Miami 394 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: Heat last year, but remember he also had bam At 395 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: a bio behind him who's a pretty decent defender. Uh, 396 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: Kelly ol Nick to muck things up. Um, listen, Jake 397 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: Crowder had a good offensive game, but he hasn't put 398 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: his stamp on this series defensively. And I don't know 399 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: who it's gonna because Aton did get in foul trouble, 400 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: which is why I only played twenty four minutes. Um, 401 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 1: sarahich is out. It can't be Frank Kaminski. Guys just can't. Um. 402 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if we see the young kid Jalen Smith, 403 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: who is a I think he's a yeah for he's 404 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: a rookie. Jalen Smith is a rookie out of Maryland. 405 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: Right two thousand, twenty first round pick the twenty one 406 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 1: draft hasn't happened, Like yeah, Jalen Smith is a rookie. Now, 407 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: his amount of playoff minutes I can give you pretty easily. 408 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: He played four minutes against the Lakers, eight against the Nuggets, 409 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: and five against the Clippers. He only gets off the 410 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,239 Speaker 1: bench and blowouts. But he's bouncy. And you know, I 411 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: wonder if in a pinch, Monty goes to it, because 412 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, you can't put Frank Kaminski in the game. 413 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: The Bucks will just try your honest onto the floor 414 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: and Jannat will eat up Kaminsky. That's just what's gonna happen. 415 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: Um I I I don't like that matchup at all, 416 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: and that disrespect to Frank the Tank. And I'm not 417 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: being hard on him because he cost me money twice 418 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: in the n c A tournament. Oh my gosh, um 419 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: what the game that really hurt was against Arizona and 420 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 1: Aaron Gordon and I love that Arizona team. I had 421 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: Arizona futures, um I had them in that game and 422 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: Frank the Tank Kaminsky just killed him. That was a 423 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: game where he's like, oh, that guy's a lottery picked 424 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 1: big white guy who can last threes and go inside. Yeah, 425 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 1: he's he's a good player. Um so I just want 426 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: to let you guys know Janice thirty eight minutes, Middleton 427 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,479 Speaker 1: forty one. The Bucks had to have this one. They 428 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 1: played their guys. Game four. I think it's gonna be tight. 429 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold off on making a prediction just simply because, 430 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: like I need, I need some more time. I need 431 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 1: to know just how, like how bad the Suns need 432 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: this game, because they do have home field advantage, they 433 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: home court advantage. They've been utterly dominant at home in 434 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: the playoffs, completely dominant. I think it went in seven, 435 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: but do you want to test the honest and seven. 436 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: I just I need to know how hard they're gonna 437 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: go in game four. Are they playing to win this 438 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: game and then close out the series in five? I 439 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 1: mean you could kind of tell based on some of 440 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: the body language and the quotes. I'll tell you right 441 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: now afterwards. I didn't really love the postgame interviews I 442 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: saw last night from the Suns. A lot of hanging heads, 443 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: a lot of shoulders slump, like, oh, we got our 444 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: butts kicked, And I mean I kind of saw this 445 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: one coming. I don't quite know yet to make what 446 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 1: to make up a game for, Like, I don't know 447 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: how you adjust this offensive rebound issue. I just don't. 448 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: It's very, very difficult. Um, They're just they're just smaller 449 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: than your honest and Lopez is barely playing another prediction 450 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: I did get right. But I'm bragging now too much, 451 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: So I'll wrap up the pod. I guess by UM 452 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 1: just quickly going back to what I talked about at 453 00:22:54,960 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: the Open and not doing this Saturday Radio owning more. 454 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: I just want to be clear to everybody podcast going nowhere. 455 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: You will continue to see me on FS one. I 456 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: will continue to write for Fox Digital. Um, I do 457 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 1: Fox Digital shows. I will be filling in on Fox 458 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. I just I'm getting my Saturday's back. For instance, 459 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, woke up early. Oh, volleyball right Saturdays. I 460 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: don't know what I'm gonna do. I will say this, 461 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: I'm entering a tennis tournament in a couple of weeks. 462 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: By the way, I'm playing a guy that's really good today. Yeah, 463 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 1: I'm trying to punch above my weight class here leading 464 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: up to the tournament. UM, trying some new stuff. I 465 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: haven't been smoked since I played a woman who's a 466 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: four point four oh rated tennis player. I'm probably a 467 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: three slash three five and she destroyed me. Very humbling experience, 468 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: but I needed that. You know. My son was like, well, 469 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: why are you playing these guys? We're gonna beat you. Dad. 470 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: I was like, how do you think I'm gonna get better? 471 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: Do you want me to face tomato cans? That's not 472 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 1: gonna get me anywhere. Then I go up against somebody 473 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: really good in the tournament, I'm gonna get smoked. So like, 474 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: the only way And I told my sonness, like, the 475 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: only way you're gonna get better is playing against better 476 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 1: people than you, whether that's chess, whether you want to 477 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 1: do jeopardy, whether you want to do uh, monopoly, trivial pursuit. Like, 478 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: don't punch down to build your confidence. Punch up and 479 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: you'll continue to get better. That's the way to go 480 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: to improve. Um. And you know, I listen, I'm excited 481 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: to have my Saturdays back, There's no doubt about that. 482 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: Obviously during football season, um, you know, I'm sure we'll 483 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 1: do some college football stuff on Saturday's. Eventually we'll do 484 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 1: NFL stuff on Sundays. Um. Probably a little more gambling 485 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: uh in my life, but I will miss the Saturday 486 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: Show this Saturday, obviously coming up is the end of it. 487 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: So you know, obviously, UM, I'll probably open the phone 488 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: lines and and invite some of you guys in who 489 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: have been longtime listeners to to call in and unload 490 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: on me about what you like and love and hate obviously, 491 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: because you know, the hater's ball that is social media. 492 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: That's that's just where we are.
