11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. Jeff, it is great to talk

00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: to you again twenty four hours away. A little more

13
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 1: from teeing it up. What am I going to expect

14
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: when I bring my subpower average golf game to one

15
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: of the world's most classic and best courses.

16
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: Well, you better have the Well, there's gonna be a

17
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 2: lot of things awaiting you, depending on if you're going left,

18
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 2: right or straight. Listen, the La Country Club is just

19
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: the north course. There is going to be a fabulous

20
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: venue for the US Open. You'll get a real good

21
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 2: look at it tomorrow as well many others. There's just

22
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 2: so many talking points with this golf course. George Thomas,

23
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 2: brilliant architecture, the strategy of it. But I think the

24
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 2: first thing that hits you when you stand on that

25
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 2: first tee for the first for the first time you've

26
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: pulled up the gate. You get over to the first

27
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 2: tee and you know, you see this natural setting and

28
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,479
Speaker 2: how it flows through the property as you get into

29
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 2: your round. But if you look just above the tree line,

30
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: there's the Beverly Hilton. So you've got this tremendously natural

31
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 2: setting with this baranca that runs through the front nine

32
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 2: in the middle of you know, an urban environment. It's

33
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: really it's really quite a juxtaposition of the two.

34
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 3: Well with Beverly Hills there. You mentioned the Hilton, you

35
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 3: got the Playboy mansion. I mean, you've got the nineteenth

36
00:01:59,200 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 3: all set up.

37
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going to have to I guess the Playboy

38
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: mansions on the fourteen ts, so you better, I guess

39
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 2: it depends how well you do on the first thirteen holes,

40
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: as if you're going to be distracted or not. But

41
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: you know that this golf course is just wonderful. The

42
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: unique routing of the golf course. Thomas really built in

43
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: a bit of an ebb and a flow. You know,

44
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 2: you get to the first hole and Dan, given your stature,

45
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: I'm sure you'll start on one. You'll you'll be right

46
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 2: there and you know you've had to ease into your round.

47
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: It's a pretty player friendly shollwy sat par five opportunity.

48
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 2: But the best players in the world, they drive it

49
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 2: in the fairway. All of them will have an opportunity

50
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 2: to reach your bringing too. But then you get to

51
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 2: the second tee and you start some adult golf. Right there,

52
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 2: that's a that's a big golf hole, just under five

53
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: hundred yards, tiny green Baranka runs right in the front.

54
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 2: It's it's just that ebb and flow. And there's so

55
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: many examples with the sixth hole, very gettable. Part four.

56
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 2: Listen again, a bunch of these guys, maybe all of

57
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: them will have the ability to drive the green. But

58
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: you get through that hole and then you stand on

59
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 2: seven and full leak out two hundred and eighty yard

60
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 2: par three. And let's let's talk about the routing. Pretty

61
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 2: new five par threes, three par fives. Now, that's that's

62
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 2: pretty unusual for a US Open. And the par threes.

63
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: This collection of par threes is just simply outstanding, as

64
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,119
Speaker 2: good as any collection of par threes of a US

65
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: Open golf course. That we played the fifteenth hole, you

66
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 2: may recall, Dan, we've played in the Walker Cup. We

67
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: played in at about eighty yards, and then then you

68
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: can go to the eleventh hole and play it three

69
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: hundred yards. It's just outstanding. With a flexibility we have,

70
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: we'll set up different seas, whole locations Thomas talks about

71
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: of course within a course and the fifth hole, I

72
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: don't know where. I'll try to get some scouting reportand

73
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: where the whole locations are for you, Dan, because I

74
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 2: know you like to mentally play that.

75
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: Absolutely, Jeff, Absolutely, you know it's great because you and

76
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: I actually I know you've played tons of rounds a

77
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: goof We were in the same group at the Walker

78
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: Cup media day six years ago. I played absolutely out

79
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: of my mind. Okay, like it was out of my mind.

80
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: It was an otherworldly experience. But I also remember how

81
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: giddy you were, especially on those par threes. And when

82
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: you talk about fifteen, is it gonna play under one

83
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: hundred yards in mid June? Like, is that part of

84
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: the plan for you guys to have it at ninety

85
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: five yards for one of the days.

86
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: Do you think any of the players are listening right

87
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 2: now On the West.

88
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: Coast, they're probably sleeping, But everywhere else, yes, maybe.

89
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 2: So let's put it this way. There is a lot

90
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 2: of flexibility in that hole and we will use it.

91
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

92
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 2: I'm pretty confident you'll see at least in one day

93
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 2: when it will play under one hundred yards, no doubt

94
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: about it can. Again, we got to have the weather right,

95
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: you know, all of the winds, various things that we'll

96
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: have to manage the setup, which but that's something we

97
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 2: do all the time. You can have a plan, but

98
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 2: then mother nature gets to see to the table too,

99
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 2: so you have to you know, work around that. But

100
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 2: there's an opportunity to play that hole very short and

101
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: I think we will seize upon that opportunity.

102
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 3: Yes, Fox Sports Sunday. Here Fox Sports Radio Mike Carmin

103
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 3: alongside Dan Byer. Our guest USGA is managing Director of

104
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 3: Rules and Open Championships. It's Jeff Hall with us here.

105
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 3: He's ready to be the muse for Dan Byer again

106
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 3: on media day tomorrow. To that end, you're talking Jeff

107
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 3: a lot about the configurations and and the the fun

108
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 3: on the par threes when you go through in the

109
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 3: planning stage, and obviously mother nature put her off to

110
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 3: the side for the moment. But just in those planning

111
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 3: meetings and debates of how to configure things, how long

112
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 3: does it take to actually come to consensus.

113
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 2: On that, Well, it's definitely a process. Definitely a process

114
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 2: might be you know, there's set we have a set

115
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 2: up team. There'll be about I guess eight or nine

116
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 2: of us, including Darren Bivard who's our director of Championship

117
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 2: for Gromby, John Bodenhammer who's my Boston's ultimately responsible for it.

118
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: Scott Langley, who played on tour for a number of

119
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: years and as our uh new to our staff, took

120
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 2: the spots that Jason Gore had with player relations, so

121
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 2: that we get a lot of input as we go through.

122
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: But it you see, again you've developed a plan. I've

123
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 2: actually done so already. We we did our preliminary whole

124
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 2: locations during a visit in March. We had obviously some

125
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 2: good data from the Walker Cup. Different time of year

126
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,559
Speaker 2: September to June, but it was a good starting point

127
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 2: for us. So you know, we mapped out those whole

128
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 2: locations and uh and then refined some of those a

129
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 2: little different match play versus stroke play. So we've got

130
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 2: a plan that will work on and we will put

131
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 2: all the whole locations out Thursday and Friday. Now there's

132
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 2: no flying drones over the property to get that information,

133
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: and you know, we'll put that out and look at

134
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: it and we'll finesse this, we'll finesse that. What do

135
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 2: you think about this? And we've got a few holes

136
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 2: where we've got some alternate whole locations that that seuse.

137
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 2: You know, there's really six good whole locations here, which four.

138
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: Do we use?

139
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 2: So there's still a lot of work to do. And

140
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 2: then you know, sometimes you're matching up the whole location

141
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 2: with the t's you want to use. I mentioned a

142
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 2: moment earlier about Thomas with his designs building a course

143
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 2: within a course. The fifth hole wonderful part for there's

144
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 2: this little nook and cranny in the front right of

145
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 2: the greens just screaming out for a whole location. So

146
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 2: you know, say mow it, we'll use it. But it

147
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: calls for the tea to be shorter because they should

148
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 2: have a shorter club so that they can take on

149
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: that whole location and it'll be fascinating to watch. How

150
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 2: you know, the players this modern game that is played

151
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: now tackle Los Angeles Country Club and some of the

152
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: nuanced that's that's in the golf course. It's gonna be

153
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 2: fun to see. I mean, you know that's another thing too,

154
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 2: to keep in mind, there's not a lot of guys

155
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: that know this golf course very well. Yeah yeah, some

156
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 2: some played in the Walker Cup, some played in college. Uh,

157
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 2: but it's it's going to be fascinating. It's uh got

158
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 2: a lot of guys come over during the Genesis, and

159
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 2: I suspect during advance week, the week before the Open,

160
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 2: we'll have some people popping in.

161
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: I can hear the gate announcements happening, so I know

162
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: you're about to board a flight. But final question before

163
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: we let you go, Jeff, are we going to continue

164
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,679
Speaker 1: with these secret groupings? The hidden meanings? Is that going

165
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: to continue to be a staple so all of us

166
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: golf junkies can try to figure out what was going

167
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: on in your guys heads when you're when you're making

168
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 1: the groupings for Thursday and Friday.

169
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 2: We we always try to build in some excitement and

170
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 2: and some some fascination with with themes. And you know

171
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 2: a lot of those are USGA related themes, maybe junior

172
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: champions and things of that nature. But oh yeah, we

173
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 2: like to have a little bit of fun and we

174
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 2: will endeavor to do so. So, uh, whenever those are announced,

175
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 2: you can you can work through the themes and then

176
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: I'll give you the answers on the other side.

177
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: Oh, perfect, perfect, Jeff. We appreciate it, safe travels. Can't

178
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: wait to see you and talk to you tomorrow. And uh, yeah,

179
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: thanks so much. We appreciate it, and we'll talk to

180
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: you tomorrow.

181
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 2: Then take care, guys, Thanks very much, say.

182
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: Fly Jeff, talk to you j Paul of the us Yes.

183
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 3: And then the phone that is that sound.

184
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: Effect is indicative of what I'm going to do to

185
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 1: that course tomorrow like it is.

186
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, before time, we're going to start getting into over

187
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 3: unders and predictions.

188
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: I'll tell you, and we'll sort this out throughout the

189
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: show because I do want people to try to take

190
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: part and have fun with it. We're going to do

191
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: the sixth hole, which is Jeff talked about, is the

192
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: short par four which you could let's be real. I'm

193
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: not going to birdy the hole, but you could be

194
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: anywhere from a par to a triple bogie or a quad.

195
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: We're going to do that one, and then we're going

196
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: to do the short par three fifteenth, the one that

197
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: could play at ninety five yards. So I think that

198
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: you've got At one point when I did this, Mike,

199
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: I thought that I would have a range of scores

200
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: between like four and ten, and I ended up having

201
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: like two sevens. It was atrocious. There was so much

202
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: pressure on trying not to embarrass myself that I not

203
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: only embarrassed myself, I doubled down. But if you want

204
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: to guess what I'm going to do on the par

205
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: four and the par three combined the two scores, tweet

206
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: us at Swollendome at dan Byer on Fox, and if

207
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: you get it right on the head and if you're

208
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: the only one, you're gonna win a little US Open

209
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: prize pack.

210
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 3: For me, Well, I have to figure out a tie

211
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 3: breaks as the show goes on to.

212
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: Dominy curse words I use on the whole.

213
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 3: The tiebreaker that we're under set at twenty seven and

214
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 3: nine over those two rules for the round, who knows

215
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 3: now here's here's a question I have to ask as

216
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 3: the the ignorant, and this is a setup question, you know,

217
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 3: along Jeff joking about the drones, like, so do they

218
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 3: take it out of rotation to where you can't golf

219
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 3: there until the championship has played? Or is this the

220
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 3: kind of thing like if someone wanted some advanced recon

221
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: you had to wear a fake mustache in a wing

222
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 3: and maybe go, hey, go play around with you.

223
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: Remember if you're if you are a Justin Thomas, if

224
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,400
Speaker 1: you are a Jordan Speith, definitely, if you're Tiger Woods,

225
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: who won't be very likely won't be playing after the

226
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 1: recent surgery that he had. If you are those players,

227
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: that level of player, you can get an advanced look

228
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: a month or two. And yeah, these courses do shut

229
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: down for membership. There are some the championships won't open

230
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: until the the the championship is over, so they may

231
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: miss two months of their season if they're hosting it,

232
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,839
Speaker 1: but you try to limit the amount of traffic. I

233
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 1: would assume that they are doing the same at LA

234
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: Country Club. I don't know the exact you know, the

235
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: exact date that they're going to shut it down, but

236
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: this is you know this is not gonna be carts

237
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: out there. You can keep everything off the n Yeah. Absolutely.

238
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: Well.

239
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 3: The curiosity also right talking about weather in June is

240
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 3: how much they've had to kind of as the process

241
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 3: went on, given the level of rains and issues we've

242
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 3: had here in southern California. Now it's slowed up a

243
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 3: little bit, it's missed it a couple of days the

244
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 3: last week or so. But thinking about what that might

245
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 3: have done to a course, and that that natural shit

246
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: and how soft it might have gotten off of all

247
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 3: that rain.

248
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 1: It's one of the things we did. We didn't get

249
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 1: to with Jeff. But when they've had West Coast US opens,

250
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: specifically Tory Pines two years ago, we know they go

251
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: back to Pebble Beach every seven or years. They were

252
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 1: last there in twenty nineteen. You're on a body of

253
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,719
Speaker 1: water that is the Pacific Ocean, and so you can

254
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: get favorable conditions La Country Club, even though in Los

255
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: Angeles it's not on the ocean. And you know, I

256
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 1: know I lived in Santa Monica for a while. There

257
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:23,080
Speaker 1: are days where it is sixty degrees in overcast and

258
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: you just get to the foural five and it's eighty

259
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: five degrees, and LA Country Club is just on the

260
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: other side of the four or five if you're familiar

261
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: with Los Angeles and southern California, So that the blanket

262
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: of maybe comfort of having a marine layer of keeping

263
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: the temperatures down may not play into the effect of

264
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: what you get at LA Country Club because it's not

265
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: right on the coast, and you can have that marine

266
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: layer stop and it can be eighty five to ninety degrees,

267
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: and yeah, could affect play well.

268
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 3: We talk about the jew and gloom all the time,

269
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 3: right yeah, in the beach City is about fifteen miles

270
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 3: south of Los Angeles International Airport. For those that have

271
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 3: traveled out here for Disney or whatever, you've done business

272
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 3: all across and it's always the June bloom, which means,

273
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 3: you know, early in the morning it's overcast and people

274
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,319
Speaker 3: grouse and complain, and that it breaks somewhere between one

275
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 3: and three in the afternoon. May have a similar effect

276
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 3: a little further off the coast, but that same kind

277
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 3: of variability that comes in being in this area. So

278
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 3: it's a curiosity for sure. I love that he's ready

279
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 3: to tee it up with you. I think you're going

280
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 3: to get a lot of play on the USGS site

281
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 3: when it's all so done.

282
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: I think they're going to probably put more higher luminaries

283
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: than me with Jeff. But if I get to play

284
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: again in the same.

285
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,360

Speaker 1: I'll welcome it. It's a fun guy.

290
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 3: No, it was a lot of fun. I mean, learning

291
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 3: a lot of things. We still have another thirty five

292
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 3: questions that we could have gone deep, So eventually we'll

293
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 3: get them to sit down do a podcast for a

294
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 3: deep dive or something like that, because there's just so much,

295
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 3: so much I'm intrigued, right, whatever is something like this

296
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 3: comes to your city. I mean we watched it in

297
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 3: Kansas City with the draft where you're estimating three hundred,

298
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 3: four hundred thousand people. Jason didn't like the Kansas City celebration,

299
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 3: like they're the champs. Now it just happened to line

300
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 3: up that they're the champs and it's in Kansas City.

301
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 3: But to the victor goes to spoils. Did you need

302
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 3: to see Travis Kelcey again yesterday. Maybe not, but you did,

303
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: and so get over it. Likewise, when stuff like this

304
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 3: comes to town, and we certainly have plenty of events,

305
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 3: and we'll get into the Lakers survive in advance in

306
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 3: the playoffs and everybody getting on board in a minute.

307
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 3: But it's that kind of thing when when you have

308
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 3: major events and can host major events, it starts to

309
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 3: juice up your town and anybody that college football, whatever

310
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 3: it is that gets you. I mean, watching you light

311
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: up up as we brought jeff in is about as

312
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 3: good as it gets because there is that passion for

313
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,239
Speaker 3: the game. We all love sports. I think your association

314
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 3: with golf, and you're very, very good and self deprecating

315
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 3: about your ability to play. And maybe I've never seen

316
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 3: you outside of our corporate thing a couple of years

317
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,840

322
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 3: I was terrible, but I had like three good swings

323
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 3: on eighteen holes, but I think I was moderately entertained.

324
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 3: All it takes, but It's the kind of thing that

325
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 3: you know, when when you have something that really gets

326
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 3: you fired up, it shows i'll.

327
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: Use, I'll use. This is a perfect example. And La

328
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 1: country Club is different than Tory Pines because La country

329
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: Club is a private course, it's exclusive. Tory Pines is

330
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 1: a public course that you can play, and people will

331
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: say like, oh, I want to go to Tory Pines,

332
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: I want to see the view, use I want to

333
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: play the course at the pros play. Tory Pines is

334
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: a brute like it is. It is tough, it is beautiful,

335
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: but it's not like, oh, this is an easy, fun

336
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: funky golf course. This is a classic golf course. Funky

337
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: is not the right word. But there's so many different

338
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 1: sort of shots and even Jeff talking about there's there's

339
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: three or five par threes on this course, and that's

340
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: that's a little unique, just some of the differences in

341
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: the lengths of the whole. It really is the most

342
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: fun I've had on a golf course is playing that course,

343
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: and so I'm excited tomorrow for that aspect. But I

344
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: think it translates on TV as hearing them say, you know,

345
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 1: there could be a whole that's ninety five yards the

346
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: best players in the world who you know, holding ones

347
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: could happen. You could also have Bogie or double bull. Yeah,

348
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: no question about it.

349
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:55,639
Speaker 3: Hey, we've been talking about the NFL Draft all week long.

Speaker 3: a sporting event. It's our guy, Isaac lowin gron with

360
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:32,920

Speaker 5: providing live coverage of Dan's round tomorrow. I will be

363
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 5: stationed at the fourteenth hole. Really the Playboy Mansion. I

364
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 5: had a story that I could tell you about when

365
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 5: we played there. It is clean, it is for air,

366
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 5: it is safe harbor.

367
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 1: But I didn't want to waste her time with Jeff

368
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: because he was boarding a flight. But there is something

369
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: you need. We'll get to it during the show.

370
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 3: Well, I gotta tell you though. It was good though

371
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:04,840
Speaker 3: because in the background, because you can hear a little

372
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 3: bit of voices, but we didn't have anybody screaming at

373
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 3: a ticket agent or anything.

374
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: So that was good.

375
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 5: Yes, that's probably why I cut off there they had Did.

376
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 1: You see did you hear the flight attendant made that

377
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: woman pick up popcorn in the background?

378
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 3: Did you saw that? Yeah?

379
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 1: That was a virus.

380
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 3: That was a crazy story the other day. And you

381
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 3: know what, you know, everybody does their share. They'll teach

382
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 3: you that in pre schools.

383
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, next time, I'll just take the bus. Uh. Hellas

384
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 5: in Gabe. One of the Western Conference Sebi finals on Saturday,

385
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 5: Denver defeated Phoenix one twenty five to one, seven thirty

386
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 5: four from Jamal Murray, Nikola Jokicic twenty four points and

00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,920

392
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 6: Thanks Scar.

393
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 5: Holy nice star Joe Bowen, the terable Joe Bowen with

394
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 5: the call is they wanted Tampa Bay in overtime two

395
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 5: to one to take the series four games to two.

396
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 5: If you're wondering the origin of the phrase holy Mackinaw,

397
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 5: that was a phrase used by Joe Bowen's father and

398
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 5: he used it because he didn't want to swear in

399
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 5: front of his son, so he made up that phrase

400
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 5: holy Mackinaw instead of saying something else, like the peaches,

401
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 5: like the what like the peaches from side.

402
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: Sound feld Mackinaw Islands.

403
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's the thing.

404
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 5: I'm like Macchigans in Michigan, Ontario.

405
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 1: It's not great place, it's awesome. It really is.

406
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 5: In the bunch that is a popular, popular destination.

407
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 3: That's right.

408
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 5: New York Rangers forcing a Game seven with a five

409
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 5: to two went over the New Jersey Devils. The Edmonton

410
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 5: Oilers defeated the Kings in LA five to four to

411
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 5: take the series four games to two. Edmonton scored the

412
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 5: series winning goal with three minutes left in the third period.

413
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 5: Baseball Saturday Night Dodgers over the Cardinals won nothing. Clayton

414
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 5: Kershaw seven innings, allowed just two hits, struck out nine

415
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 5: no walks. He's now five and one with a one

416
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 5: point eight to nine eer and finally, a developing kind

417
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 5: of controversy because during Friday Night's A's Reds game in Oakland,

418
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 5: numerous A's fans displayed signs behind the right field fence

419
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 5: criticizing the team for its upcoming move to Las Vegas.

420
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 2: One.

421
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 5: When the highlights of an A's home run to right

422
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 5: field were later posted on MLB dot com, many people

423
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 5: on social media noticed that the home run footage was

424
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 5: edited from the original telecast to crop out the critical signs.

425
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 5: A spokesperson told the San Francisco Chronicle, we were unaware

426
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 5: of the edit. When it came to our attention, we

427
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 5: corrected it as it isn't consistent with our policy unquote

428
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 5: back to you, fellas it's like an NBA two minute report.

429
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 2: Now.

430
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 3: The mackinaw Peaches episode included the Great Krista Miller, Drew

431
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 3: Carey show, Scrubs Now, Shrinking Harrison Ford and everything where

432
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 3: she takes the pit puts it in her mouth, and

433
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 3: it was one of the many women if you made

434
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 3: the list of what are they doing with any of

435
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: these people? Like how charming, must they? Why did we

436
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,719
Speaker 3: never get that first interaction of the pickup that that

437
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 3: had the great line that made Jerry or Kramer, I mean,

438
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 3: he had the Kavorka or George remotely attractive for those

439
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 3: two minutes.

440
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: I just I remember Newman eating the last mackinaw or

441
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 1: when Kramer gets his taste buds back last one.

442
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 3: The slow taunts. Yes, it's funny because I referenced Wayne

443
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 3: Knight a little bit earlier in our pre show as

444
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 3: we were talking we had the uh, the ad that

445
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 3: plays for Big Lou uh and medications and insurances and whatever. Uh,

446
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 3: and our guy ty Shirt had mistaken it and called

447
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 3: him big Al and big Al in Toy Story two,

448
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 3: his voice by Wayne Knight. There you go. It all

449
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: comes together here on Fox Sports Radio for the diirac

450
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,080

451
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 3: we'll continue uh at the NBA side of things. Mention

452
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 3: some of that in the update because we've got Game

453
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 3: seven today and it feels like it has a weight,

454
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 3: perhaps unlike any Game seven in a while. We'll do

455

Speaker 3: in case multiples get it right. But that's part of

468
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 3: the excitement of the week ahead. I can't wait to

469

Speaker 3: No drones at Dan Byron Fox at Swollen Dome at

475
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio.

476
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: I got to think of a good hashtag where we

477
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 1: can follow along, you know, where people can I don't

478
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: think we're going to get thousands of.

479
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,120
Speaker 3: Entries hashtag buyer scores.

480
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: Yeh scores there it is.

481
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 3: Yes, that's all right, buyer scores that way, it has

482
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 3: many multiple meanings. Here we've got Game seven later on today,

483
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 3: one and a half point favorites at home, the Sacramento Kings,

484
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 3: the upstart Sacramento Kings. We had talked about them a

485
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 3: bunch as the regular season drew to a closed dan

486
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 3: team that was able to fly under the radar because,

487
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 3: as we'll talk about in the coming hours of the program,

488
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 3: Lakers like the draft, there's always one or two stories

489
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 3: that take up a lot of the air, a lot

490
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 3: of the column inches and it certainly you play the hits.

491
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 3: My man, it is radio, after all. I talked earlier

492
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 3: about driving in and how three different channels had the

493
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 3: song Flowers by Miley Cyrus at different points.

494
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: And you're like, am I on back up?

495
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 3: That was kind of weird? Yeah, I hit back. I

496
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 3: don't know, but it's the kind of thing where the Kings,

497
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 3: for the most part, flew under the radar in the

498
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 3: regular season. We've got focus on dearon Fox and the

499
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,439
Speaker 3: broken finger and all of those things, and on the

500
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 3: other side, you've got the Warriors, and then you get

501
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 3: the Zapruder film of just Jordan Poole hate Draymond Green.

502
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 3: Still going back to the punch before the season. Is

503
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 3: he just frustrated because let's say he said he can't

504
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 3: play defense and offensively his game has been wildly erratic.

505
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 3: Dynasty versus the upstarts first time in the playoffs in

506
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 3: seventeen years, like all of these great storylines come to

507
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 3: a head today.

508
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: I love when things happen organically. And entering the NBA playoffs,

509
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: Mike I felt that there were three series that we

510
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: were really focused on, Sun's Clippers, Lakers Grizzlies, and King's Warriors.

511
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: And let's be honest, Kawhi gets hurt, Suns Clippers phases

512
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: out doesn't have the same Lakers Grizzlies did provide a

513
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: lot of conversation at the start from Dylan Brooks, not

514
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: at the end. But the Kings Warriors series, it's been

515
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: it's been the drama that you talked about that maybe

516
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: happening with the Warriors. It's just the level of play

517
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: that you've had. It's also just the rhythm of the series.

518
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 1: Kings go up two to oh, Warriors fight back three

519
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: to two can close it out? Kings respond. I mean

520
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 1: it is a heavyweight about and they're trading punches and

521
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,959
Speaker 1: we're now into the championship Browns. It's been awesome and

522
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,360
Speaker 1: it's just happened organically. It's why I love it well.

523
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 3: And a Game six in the middle of the NFL Draft,

524
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 3: the story going on, I want to call it Staples

525
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 3: at Crypto dot Com with the Lakers and the beatdown

526
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 3: that they put on on Memphis that this we had

527
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 3: a no show effort by the defending champs at home. Right,

528
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 3: that was the most confusing game watching that transpire. There's

529
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 3: there was never a doubt, right, mini runs, but nothing

530
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 3: to where you felt the Kings were ever threatened in

531
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 3: that game. And now you go to a Game seven.

532
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,879
Speaker 3: All the narratives are well known about the Warriors and

533
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 3: their road struggles all season, but you know what, they

534
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 3: got game five and they've been here this before. But

535
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 3: does history matter or is it an advantage that you

536
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 3: don't know that and you just go play basketball.

537
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 1: I think the Kings can play loose, I really do.

538
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: I think all of the pressure is on Golden State today.

539
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 3: Live here from the tire rac dot Com studios he's

540
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,159
Speaker 3: Dan Bayer. I'm Mike Carmen, and you'll hate me because

541
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 3: I actually had the heat winning first series. You can

542
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 3: yell at me off. Coming up next back into the

543
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 3: NFL Draft. Greetings, welcome in hour two of the program

Speaker 3: Gottlieb Show and as part of Cavino and Rich the

552
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 3: Eye Watcher Flex podcast that he and I co host.

553
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 3: We'll have a draft like edition here, short version on

554
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 3: the show, but certainly something more elongated here in the

555
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 3: coming days. And you're already getting guesses about your scores

556
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 3: and showing that we are international. We go all the

557
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 3: way up to Canada.

558
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: Just sent the tweet out, and before I even sent

559
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: the official tweet out, Tony from Canada tweets in saying

560
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: cheers from Canada. Listens every morning he's guessing par bogie

561
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: for me a score of eight. Wow, look at that. Yes,

562
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: great belief. I love you. Just no, no, in the

563
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: belief that I will score those two holes in one

564
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 1: over par correct appreciated.

565
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 3: We need to pull it back because we brought this

566
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 3: out no Hour number one. This is going to be

567
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 3: a contest. Dan is going to go play as part

568
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 3: of media day tomorrow as we get ready for the

569
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 3: Championships to come here in June.

570
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: Yes, and I think that's very, very fortunate to be

571
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: able to tee it up, and I want to have

572
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: fun with it, and I want to be able to

573
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: bring others along with us in having that fun. And

574
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: while everybody can't play, you could at least maybe have

575
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 1: a part of it in guessing what I'm going to

576
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 1: score on the par four to sixth hole measuring three

577
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five yards and the par three to

578
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: fifteenth hole, which Jeff Hall said during the Championship could

579
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: be under one hundred yards, it could be ninety five yards.

580
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: They did it in the Walker Cup for one of

581
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 1: the days. We could see it in mid June as well. Well.

582
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,959
Speaker 1: But it's listed on the scorecard at one hundred and

583
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: twenty five yards, where I wasn't gonna do any brutes Mike,

584
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 1: even though that if we're playing a hole that's four

585
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: hundred and forty yards for someone like me, I'm probably

586
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: not gonna burdy it. But there may be the chance

587
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: that just on one of these two holes, who knows

588
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: that the shot of my life and allows for a

589
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 1: more wide ranging array of scores. And if you get

590
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: it correctly, if you get the score correctly, if you're

591
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: one of those and you tie others, we'll have a

592
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: random drawing for who gets the US Open item. Don't

593
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: know what it is yet, but I'll have more information

594
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: on it tomorrow.

595
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 3: US Open coming to the La Country Club June fifteenth

596
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 3: through eighteenth. Now, if it goes sideways and the hole

597
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 3: is just not working, are you going to lean into it?

598
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 3: Since you're doing video of it from the sixth or

599
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 3: the fifteenth, I don't know where we start getting pool

600
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 3: ques or running around like Jenny j is.

601
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: Going problem with the video. I did this at Aaron

602
00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: Hills back in the home land of Wisconsin a few

603
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 1: years ago, and it was some of the most embarrassing

604
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: moments have ever had because I put it in a bunker,

605
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: could not get out of the bunker.

606
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 3: On Now you're saying the ball as opposed to our

607
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 3: guy JJ Watt last week who physically couldn't get out

608
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 3: of the bunker.

609
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: The ball which I felt like I wanted to be

610
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 1: in the bunker and bury myself. I then drove it

611
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: in the junk on the Power four fifteenth toll. Not

612
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,400
Speaker 1: that we're going shot for shot. I'll tell you my

613
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: fantasy football roster next and who I picked to win

614
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: it all in the NCAA tournament. Sweet It's it was Mike.

615
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 1: There was just so much pressure because I knew the

616
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 1: scores that I knew people were invested, and so there

617
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: was some pressure. And I even told the guys, I'm like,

618
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 1: I can't do this again because it just completely throws

619
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 1: me off my game. But I feel like I need

620
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 1: to I need to share it with others. You came

621
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 1: up with the hashtag buyer scores hashtag buyer scores that

622
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: we could start it out. That you can also reply

623
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: to the tweet that I just sent out a little

624
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: while ago. But we'll have fun with this. We'll have

625
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: fun tomorrow, hopefully. I don't know if they're going to

626
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: send us all off on the first tee or if

627
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: it's going to be a shotgun start, because if it's

628
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: a shotgun start and I start on six, we could

629
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: be in trouble. But it's just a lot of fun.

630
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: I think everybody loves to play the courses that the

631
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: pros play, and to be able to do it at

632
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: a course where a major is being played and in

633
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: those similar conditions, it's just a lot a lot of fun.

634
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: I want to bring everyone along with.

635
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 3: So last question before we get into talk of your

636
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 3: quarterback going number two overall in this NFL draft, and

637
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 3: now I'm blanking like I had a good follow up

638
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 3: to this, how much will you be scoreboard watching on

639
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 3: the six to fifteen when this actually takes place in June,

640
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 3: to say I beat that guy. Look at how many

641
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 3: guys I'd beat.

642
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: There will be There will be that. There absolutely will

643
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: be that, no doubt about it.

644
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 3: So I dont dancing around his front room.

645
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 1: Well, so when someone puts it in the rough and

646
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: there's rougher on these bunkers at LA country Club, sometimes

647
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 1: of courses, we'll have it all shaved down in mode.

648
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, there is going to be there's going to

649
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: be rough. Hopefully someone puts it in rough, has to

650
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 1: hack it out and I can at least have breaking

651
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: rights on one on one.

652
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,960
Speaker 3: Player again at dan Byer on Fox, over at smolen Dome,

653
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 3: at hashtag buyer scores, make your guests. Some folks starting

654
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 3: to give some recommendations for tie breakers.

655
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: Scott's already Scott nine. You know what, I'm not mad

656
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: at that. I'm not mad. That's bog bogan. Oh you

657
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:35,719
Speaker 1: to take it, Yeah, I'll take it.

658
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 3: The borderline professional at that?

659
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: Yes, borderline.

660
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 3: Well, it's a good word and a pretty good song

661
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 3: from the eighties, going all the way back with your

662
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 3: Madonna knowledge. We're broadcasting live from the tyrack dot com studios.

Speaker 3: recommended installers. Tyrack dot com the way tire buying should be.

666
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 3: Now we know that draft season, the final weeks. It's

667
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 3: the old how do you know a lawyers lying his

668
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 3: lips are moving kind of thing that we we had

669
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,720
Speaker 3: the game of Liar's Poker that every team plays subterfuge.

670
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: You have to still meet with your local media and

671
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 3: you throw out some little nuggets here and there, and

672
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 3: and and people are going to take the baits stuff

673
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 3: on social media, stuff you leak, leak to reporters, and

674
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 3: let's face it, virtually everybody gets used as a pawn

675
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 3: at some point during the I can't I can't say

676
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 3: one hundred percent, but I am. We've been in this

677
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 3: long enough to know, Uh, someone's got a contact from

678
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 3: within an organization or a player's agent or whatever that

679
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 3: that's leading you down a path. Now with CJ. Stroud,

680
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,360
Speaker 3: a lot of conversations that come through before Houston does

681
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 3: make him the number two pick in the draft. You

682
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 3: have this S two test that leaks and what you

683
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,800
Speaker 3: suffice to say didn't do well on that. He addressed

684
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 3: it saying, look, I my take is my tape. Maybe

685
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 3: I'm not a good test taker. My tests are going

686
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 3: to be on Sunday's kind of thing. You've got the

687
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 3: Ohio state legacy of quarterbacks. Yes that anybody that claims

688
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 3: that that's not going to be part of a decision

689
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 3: making process is kidding themselves. Why did Alabama quarterbacks that

690
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 3: were winning really well and consistently in college consistently fall

691
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 3: before Hurts? Before Tua you had a long Hey, these

692
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 3: guys are winning, but they're going in the middle of

693
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 3: the you know, the draft or undrafted altogether. And now

694
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 3: you have CJ. Stroud with all of those questions coming in,

695
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 3: and then we had the Will Levis and the betting

696
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 3: odds were kind of going all over the place. But

697
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 3: Houston ultimately makes him the number two pick. And as

698
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:50,760
Speaker 3: we always talk about these things and life choices in general,

699
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 3: you got a giant algorithm. You may not write it out.

700
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 3: You may not have coefficients that you have discernible as

701
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 3: if you're playing in your portfolio and sitting down with

702
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 3: a wealth advisor risk assessment, risk management. You know when

703
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,760
Speaker 3: you go to the actuarial table if you're buying life

704
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,400
Speaker 3: insurance or home insurance, you know that there's different variables

705
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 3: based on where you live, weather conditions, whatever. But we

706
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 3: go through and we try to put our thinking hats

707
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 3: on and trying to read the minds of GM's owners

708
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,319
Speaker 3: and how they participate. Some of its gut, some of

709
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 3: its game film, some of it is the old wonder lick. Now,

710
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 3: this s two tests, and every team's going to wait

711
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 3: stuff differently, and as we always say, it only takes

712
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 3: one thirty one. Other teams may have just said, you

713
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 3: know what, up in that valuation? If we're up there

714
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,280
Speaker 3: at I don't know that he could be that high.

715
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 3: You know what it took it took Houston to just say,

716
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 3: you know what, that's our guy.

717
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: I thought when those scores were leaked that it came

718
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: from the Colts. Like I thought the Colts put it

719
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: out there because they wanted to take CJ. Strode in Division. Yes, right, well,

720
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: I thought, like for the lead up, like what do

721
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: you do? What does a team do? They want to

722
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 1: make sure that if Maybe my thinking was the Colts

723
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 1: loved c J. Stroud and they wanted c J. Stroud

724
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 1: to be their guy. That was my thinking when these

725
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: scores were released prior to the draft, because Mike I thought,

726
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,239
Speaker 1: what team is going to benefit from this information where

727
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: c J. Stroud now could fall into the draft or

728
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: fall in the draft, and I thought it was the Colts.

729
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 1: Like they then they wouldn't have to move up. Listen,

730
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,680
Speaker 1: it would be difficult for them to move up to

731
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 1: two anyway because of the division opponent scenario. I don't

732
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,520
Speaker 1: know how much the Texans would want to do business

733
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 1: with the Cults.

734
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 3: It would have to be a gross overpay. Yes, yes,

735
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 3: it unlike anything we'd seen.

736
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 1: And if you trade up to to three with Arizona,

737
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,439
Speaker 1: I don't know what that gets yet, but I thought

738
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 1: that the Colts sent it out or that if there,

739
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: if there was the league. I'm not accusing the Colts.

740
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to put two and two together. Yeah,

741
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: but what what what happened was CJ. Stroud goes too,

742
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 1: so it didn't matter like the Texans, there would be

743
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 1: no reason. We knew that bright Young was likely going

744
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 1: number one. And you're trying to find things, you're trying

745
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 1: to poke holes, you're trying to look at stuff. I'll

746
00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: tell you what was one of the toughest things that

747
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,879
Speaker 1: I thought was against c J. Stroud is Mike At

748
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,359
Speaker 1: times he made it look too easy and and and

749
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: maybe maybe it was because he was throwing it to

750
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison Junior and throwing it to Chris Olave and

751
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 1: Jackson Smith and Jigma and Garrett Wilson. But I'll tell

752
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: you what you know.

753
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 2: C J.

754
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,400
Speaker 1: Stroud is doing a lot of that work. And when

755
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: they didn't have a running back in that national semifinal

756
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 1: game against Georgia, all of a sudden, c J. Stroud,

757
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: who didn't run for a good three quarters of his career,

758
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,959
Speaker 1: did later on in this past season, becomes a running back,

759
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 1: and I mean let the team in carries that he

760
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: that he had the national and then the semi final

761
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 1: almost called the national semi final, but in the college

762
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: football playoffs semi final, and that's like I thought at times,

763
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: he made it look too easy and that there wasn't

764
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 1: anything to draw you in. I think he's going to

765
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 1: be fine. I think he's going to be great in Houston.

766
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,359
Speaker 1: I think the division stinks, you know, and I think

767
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: everybody does. So now all of a sudden, you have

768
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: this chance to immediately compete. I like to pick I

769
00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: mean I really do. I thought he was the best quarterback.

770
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 1: I would have taken Stroud over Bryce Young.

771
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 3: And that was one of the great debates. But I

772
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 3: think it plays into, as you said, making it look

773
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 3: too easy goes back to the Alabama quarterback, Well, you're winning, right,

774
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 3: goes back to Ohio State. Well, you're always seen as

775
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,479
Speaker 3: having this plethora of talent. I mean, look at Lekat

776
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 3: Jackson's Smith and Jigba. He was a guy a couple

777
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 3: of years ago because you mentioned Garrett Wilson, you mentioned

778
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 3: Chris a lot. I mean, you go through it's like

779
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,439
Speaker 3: there's only so much you're gonna be able to show.

780
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 3: So people like, oh you did this, and they was

781
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 3: like this is where he goes like, well, you're playing

782
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 3: a role based on the other personnel that are there. Likewise,

783
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 3: if you're CJ. Stroud, you've got a wealth of top

784
00:39:56,040 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 3: notch five star recruits playing around. That's good and obviously productivity.

785
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 3: But then going to the pros when you do have

786
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 3: a number of guys that have come out of either

787
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 3: your school or similar Right, go back to Patrick Mahomes

788
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 3: if we want. In twenty seventeen, right, the pinball numbers

789
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 3: as like, well, most of the quarterbacks, virtually all the

790
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 3: quarterbacks that have come out of this conference have fizzled

791
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 3: because they don't play defense in that conference.

792
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: Yes, I didn't think it would work for Mahomes. I

793
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,840
Speaker 1: did not think in my amateur thinking, Mike air Raid,

794
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 1: you know, it's just not it's not going to work

795
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And now now look what

796
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:43,720
Speaker 1: it's done. I think Ryan Day's system is more allows

797
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: you to have success in the NFL. Fields is such

798
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: a you know, like remember when Justin Fields was at Georgia,

799
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,439
Speaker 1: they weren't playing him because he couldn't throw the football.

800
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 1: So then the next year goes to Ohio State and

801
00:40:58,440 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 1: I know Jake from was at the time, but then

802
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: he throws the football. But there is also this this

803
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: growing period and you know it as a Bears fan,

804
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,760
Speaker 1: like he is going to have to take the next step.

805
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:14,280
Speaker 1: I CJ. Stroud is way further along than Justin Fields

806
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: was in entering the NFL when it comes to pass

807
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: like it's it's night and there the day. They're two

808
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: completely different quarterbacks. And so the history of the Ohio

809
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 1: State quarterback should never have been a criticism, a legitimate criticism,

810
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,280
Speaker 1: or a reason not to draft CJ. Stroud.

811
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. The other thing, when you go draft room to

812
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 3: draft room, you've got myriad agendas at play right, safe

813
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 3: pick because maybe the last couple of seasons, if you're

814
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 3: especially if you're drafting high right, you've had some stuff

815
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 3: go wrong.

816
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: Yes right.

817
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 3: For all of the love to Chris Ballard, and you

818
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 3: know he's a media darling. He's failed multiple times. Going

819
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 3: back to the honest conversation earlier in the week, like

820
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 3: you went and bought stuff gap veteran quarterbacks with a

821
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 3: pretty good roster, and I've joked all along. I like

822
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 3: Ballard's roster construction and losing Shaquille Leonard formally Darius before

823
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 3: last season obviously doesn't help. But the idea that you

824
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:18,720
Speaker 3: went and took multiple bites of the apple of thirty

825
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,799
Speaker 3: five plus year old quarterbacks or guys that have been

826
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,279
Speaker 3: jettisoned for myriad reasons before that you don't get to

827
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 3: pick the quarterbacks anymore. But he's a guy that's kind

828
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 3: of on the hot seat.

829
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: So what do you do.

830
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,320
Speaker 3: You go get the guy that everybody says is it

831
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:37,359
Speaker 3: can't miss prospect in Anthony richardson right variability. But he's

832
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 3: the guy that fits checks all the boxes from the

833
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 3: traditional draft board, and so you draft him. But in Houston,

834
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,759
Speaker 3: Saria's in charge, there was a power vacuum for a

835
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 3: long time. You got a first year head coach. You're

836
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 3: playing with a little more swing, I think in terms

837
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:57,800
Speaker 3: of what you can do as opposed to maybe Ballard.

838
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,279
Speaker 3: He had to take the sexy pick at four, you know.

839
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 1: And the thing that I think about Ballard is I

840
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: think he's gotten more leeway because I don't think that

841
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: you move off of him and then if things don't

842
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: go well in year one. I don't think you move

843
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: off of him and leave Shane Stike in as almost

844
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 1: a lame duck. You know, a new regime comes in

845
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 1: that's very difficult. You allow him to hire the head coach.

846
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 1: I think it buys you a couple of years Ryan

847
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,799
Speaker 1: Pace Chicago in a similar situation. What I do see

848
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:31,399
Speaker 1: with Anthony Richardson in Indianapolis is it's not a Shane

849
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 1: Steiken thing about. It is a Chris Ballard thing. Is

850
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 1: similar to John Harbaugh as the head coach of the

851
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 1: Ravens when Lamar Jackson ended up. We forget that John

852
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 1: Harball was on the hot seat when Joe Frasco was

853
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:47,240
Speaker 1: playing that season and Lamar saved his job in essence,

854
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 1: because now Harball plays Lamar and they have success, and

855
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,879
Speaker 1: now Harball's attached to that and John Harball is still

856
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: the coach of the Ravens. If Anthony Richardson has any

857
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 1: sort of success, it wipes everything that you believe in

858
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,800
Speaker 1: that I've talked with you about about Ballard's previous history,

859
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 1: moves it aside because now Anthony Richardson is the guy.

860
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 3: Well, it's part two. Yep, it is right before it

861
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 3: was roster builder couldn't get the quarterback. Right now he's

862
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,959
Speaker 3: got a new era, so you kind of split them. Yeah,

863
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 3: for Harbaugh, if Lamar Jackson hadn't re signed with all

864
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,080
Speaker 3: of his outward love or whatever, you might have been

865
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:28,359
Speaker 3: back creeping towards the temperature rising. Again, Let's talk about

866
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson, because that's a story that happened on the

867
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,840
Speaker 3: Draft first night and kind of got pushed to the

868
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 3: side a little bit because while it became all about

869
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 3: how sad is will Lovis in the green room, he's

Speaker 1: hometown's got a ten. No, excuse me, a six. James

889
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 1: has got a ten. Kevin Kevin, Yeah.

890
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:57,400
Speaker 3: You're parring both holes.

891
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,399
Speaker 1: It's a birdie in Yeah, one of those. Yeah, look

Speaker 3: I got himTo Hank. Yes, that's the win in and

899
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:28,720
Speaker 3: of itself. Good though exactly damn it, Bobby, I should

900
00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 3: have hit that shot to the left. All right. So

901
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson gets his deal five years two sixty one

902
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 3: eighty five Guaranteed beats the jail and Hurts contract, and

903
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 3: that resolved itself on Thursday morning. Saw Jay Glazer tweet

904
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,279
Speaker 3: about it, and he saw the litany of folks, uh,

905
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 3: you know, as they put that out, and it was

906
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 3: one of those moments where I'm like, damn it, there's

907
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,840
Speaker 3: another story, because I actually literally had finished a spot

908
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 3: in Baltimore and they asked me what I thought. I go, well,

909
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 3: I think eventually you guys come to settle. So I

910
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,360
Speaker 3: felt good. But it's like, if things go awry and

911
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 3: this doesn't get done before the draft and the Colts

912
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 3: don't get the guy they want, maybe they're in play

913
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 3: for a post draft sign trade, all this kind of

914
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,960
Speaker 3: fun stuff that you go through. But for me, it

915
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 3: was always pulling back on the Nino Brown, always business,

916
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,960
Speaker 3: never personal. Going back to the classic nineteen eighty nine

917
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 3: New Jack City or was it ninety one ninety one

918
00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:31,800
Speaker 3: maybe anyway, the idea being that you've got a guy running,

919
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 3: oh he's running drugs out of an apartment complex. But

920
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,280
Speaker 3: the idea is leave a check emotion at the door. It's,

921
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:44,839
Speaker 3: you know, the brad Pitted vice in Ocean's eleven when

922
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 3: they're playing poker or whatever, and that they sent Lamar

923
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 3: Jackson out they couldn't come to the deal. Fine, maybe

924
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,080
Speaker 3: requested a trade how strongly. That was fine, I'm out

925
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,200
Speaker 3: of here. But it's like, go off, see what the

926
00:47:56,239 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 3: other thirty one flavors will do to accommodate, and then

927
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:04,600
Speaker 3: we're here. So it takes some of that personal sting

928
00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:07,360
Speaker 3: of the no agent, no whatever, because you had to

929
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 3: feel it from the other teams right when calls either

930
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,440
Speaker 3: came and didn't go anywhere or didn't come at all.

931
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 3: That eventually calmerheads, prevail draft is coming. What are we doing?

932
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,720
Speaker 3: Let's talk reasonable money, and he's fifty million dollars north

933
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 3: of whatever was reportedly and he said it a while

934
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:32,240
Speaker 3: back of five years, one hundred and thirty three significantly north,

935
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 3: not to Sean Watson money. But I think anybody who's

936
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 3: reasonable always thought that that was an asenine deal signed

937
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 3: by a desperate squad.

938
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:47,359
Speaker 1: Yes, and I think that your point is is spot on.

939
00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:53,399
Speaker 1: It is very astute in the It's just business, it's

940
00:48:53,440 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: not personal, and the Ravens, I felt, never ever made

941
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 1: it personal with Lamar.

942
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,240
Speaker 3: They still spoke glowingly about him at every turn.

943
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,760
Speaker 1: And their offers to him, by all accounts, were legitimate offers.

944
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: It was just the fact of, you know, how do

945
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 1: we show Lamar the reason why we're doing this. What

946
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 1: is the best way that we can get this across

947
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 1: to give them the best deal, Because it wasn't about leverage, Mike.

948
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: It wasn't about let's try to squeeze every penny or

949
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,359
Speaker 1: save every penny that we can, because in the end,

950
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:32,920
Speaker 1: that's not what happened. They took a risk, but I

951
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,239
Speaker 1: think it was a calculated risk to put the non

952
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:39,879
Speaker 1: exclusive tag on Lamar Jackson, which allowed him to see.

953
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,799
Speaker 1: What you were talking about is that, you know what,

954
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: there isn't that market for you that you may think.

955
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: We want you to be a Raven. We're going to

956
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 1: pay you a lot of money to be a Baltimore Raven,

957
00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 1: So please accept, you know, this sort of contract that

958
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 1: will take care of you. They didn't underpay. They made

959
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 1: him the highest paid quarterback per annual salary of anybody

960
00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 1: in the league. The guaranteed money may not be fully

961
00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: like Deshaun Watson's, but the amount of the contract is

962
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 1: more than what Deshaun Watson got. It really is for

963
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 1: all the criticism that Eric DaCosta and the Ravens front

964
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:19,480
Speaker 1: office Scott to be able to use that scenic route

965
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: to get Lamar to understand where they're coming from and

966
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 1: still pay Lamar money to make him the highest paid

967
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL when it comes to that average

968
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:31,759
Speaker 1: annual salary really is a tip of the cap. Like

969
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 1: they got the deals. There has nothing to do with

970
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,680
Speaker 1: whether you think Lamar is worth the money or not

971
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 1: worth the money. They feel that he is, and they

972
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 1: got him to back off of his demands to wanting

973
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 1: a fully guaranteed contract. Maybe Jalen Hurts deserves a thumbs

974
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:50,680
Speaker 1: up or a thank you for having that contract, But

975
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 1: your point is very very well put that to be

976
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 1: able to get him to see that you know this

977
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,080
Speaker 1: is the market for you, we still want to pay you,

978
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: and pay him handsomely and more than anyone else. I say,

979
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,240
Speaker 1: great job by the Baltimore Ravens.

980
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 3: Here's a new offensive coordinator and Todd Monkin. You drafts

981
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:14,719
Speaker 3: A Flowers. Everybody freaks out when Antonio Brown puts up

982
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 3: his tweet photoshopped into a Raven's uniform. So that was

983
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:24,279
Speaker 3: fun to watch that unfold people's heads exploding over that.

984
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 3: But you look at what that built. You bring in

985
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,480
Speaker 3: who is it Nelson Aguilar as well, So like you've

986
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 3: done to n Odell Beckham Junior obviously, but you've rebuilt

987
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 3: your receiving corps in addition to the guys DaCosta had

988
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 3: already drafted. We've talked about that as sauce Flowers. No

989
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 3: day flowers a huge addition, no question about it. You know,

990
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 3: the running backs in the running game is always going

991
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,840
Speaker 3: to be there, but here's a full compliment of players.

992
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 3: But the non exclusive just seems something that if you're

993
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:57,439
Speaker 3: at an impasse with a player, quarterback or other, it's

994
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:00,120
Speaker 3: the greatest tool. And anybody that complained about it, I

995
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,759
Speaker 3: saw this from a lot of X players, saw from

996
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,440
Speaker 3: a lot of current players and people in our media,

997
00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 3: it's like, that's in the CBA.

998
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 7: They agreed to this system, So shut up and tell

999
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 7: them when a team actually applies the tag, whichever the

1000
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 7: exclusive or non exclusive, shut up, argue it out, negotiate

1001
00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:21,800
Speaker 7: it out in the next CBA.

1002
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 3: If you don't like.

1003
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: It, is it the equivalent of a couple that is dating,

1004
00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 1: not engaged, not married, but just de sounding all right,

1005
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,320
Speaker 1: We're going to see other people for a little while

1006
00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 1: and then in the end they come around.

1007
00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:38,440
Speaker 3: You figure out that, yeah, that's that's the best of it.

1008
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:38,719
Speaker 2: Right.

1009
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 3: You want to make sure one hundred percent that this

1010
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 3: is where you're going. And from Lamar Jackson, from all reports,

1011
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 3: he never got a formal offer. Now we don't know

1012
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 3: how many he never went on any dates. We don't

1013
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,520
Speaker 3: know if he went on any dates. We don't know

1014
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 3: if there was just a little bit of online flirting

1015
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,359
Speaker 3: or people came down to his restaurant, because I really

1016
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 3: want to go down to the restaurant I'm in. Like

1017
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 3: he was talking, he was really talking about the oxtails.

1018
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:03,879
Speaker 3: I haven't had a good oxtail in a long time.

1019
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 3: That's something my mom used to make when I was

1020
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 3: growing up. But the idea that you go into the

1021
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,200
Speaker 3: marketplace and even if someone had given an offer, well,

1022
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,720
Speaker 3: now Baltimore has the chance to match. It's the best

1023
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:17,720
Speaker 3: part of the system, right. You still get the opportunity

1024
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:19,719
Speaker 3: to say, you know what that's worth it, we'll do that.

1025
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:23,919
Speaker 3: We'll match that. Maybe you have other conversations that all right,

1026
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 3: you'll you'll come back to us and then we'll we'll

1027
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,800
Speaker 3: open things up and maybe maybe we'll find a couple

1028
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,279
Speaker 3: more pennies that we can shake out. But go out

1029
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 3: in earnest into the marketplace and see what's viable. And

1030
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:38,880
Speaker 3: when you start talking about one hundred and eighty five

1031
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:44,279
Speaker 3: million dollars guaranteed two sixty overall, it's it's like baseball contracts.

1032
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,560
Speaker 3: We know there's only going to be so many teams

1033
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 3: that can buy for the services of a show Heyo

1034
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 3: Tani or an Aaron Judge or whatever. When we look

1035
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,400
Speaker 3: at the cap space the teams have and not that

1036
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 3: you wouldn't trip all over yourself and do some funny

1037
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 3: accounting like people accuse the Rams of doing to try

1038
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 3: to make it work. But there's so many teams that

1039
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:04,040
Speaker 3: have in either in the last year or two have

1040
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,440
Speaker 3: just invested in a quarterback and have no idea what

1041
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:11,359
Speaker 3: they've got. Or you've got an established veteran that you're

1042
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,120
Speaker 3: not ready to move off of, perhaps because you're already

1043
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 3: on the hook for so much dead cab. If they're

1044
00:54:16,280 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 3: going yeah yeah.

1045
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: When you talk about the guarantees, I wonder how much

1046
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:23,759
Speaker 1: is just ego sure in being like, because honestly, you

1047
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,160
Speaker 1: want to be the highest guy. Yeah, that's that's where

1048
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: it plays in. Where there's the guarantee of one hundred

1049
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:35,719
Speaker 1: and eighty five million dollars guaranteed with injury, that's that

1050
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 1: is likely to be in Lamar Jackson's bank account. The

1051
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 1: other part of that mic is there's fifty two million

1052
00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 1: dollars of it that you know he's going to get

1053
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,839
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, and he's probably going to get

1054
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:50,520
Speaker 1: it in twenty twenty four. So now you're already at

1055
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars. The point that I'm trying to

1056
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:59,919
Speaker 1: make is, you know these guarantees. He's like, you want

1057
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 1: the stats, the status of they believe in me. I

1058
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,759
Speaker 1: got every cent that was coming to me. Well, that's great. Now,

1059
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:10,080
Speaker 1: but you're still getting one hundred and eighty five million dollars.

1060
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,520
Speaker 1: Like there's there. It's not going to be the one

1061
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:15,880
Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen there's it's just the point of being like,

1062
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: I got every cent. That's where I think his ego

1063
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,279
Speaker 1: to it sure, And and if if he ends up

1064
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,279
Speaker 1: being released at some point, I don't think Lamar Jackson's

1065
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 1: career is over. So now you add on another contract.

1066
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 1: You know, if it was worst case scenario barring career

1067
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:35,319
Speaker 1: ending injury. But if it's worst case scenario and it

1068
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:38,320
Speaker 1: doesn't work out in Baltimore after three or four years

1069
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 1: he moves on, there's going to be another team that's

1070
00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 1: going to pay him, you know, ten million dollars whatever.

1071
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 3: That next deal is right, And this goes back to

1072
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 3: that same equation talking about the draft equation, as we

1073
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,680
Speaker 3: did with CJ. Stroud and his ultimate selection by the Texans.

1074
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 3: Players are going to be valued in a system differently

1075
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 3: by every one of those thirty two teams. We can

1076
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:05,319
Speaker 3: all agree Lamar Jackson is a great player, but there's

1077
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 3: still some issues that need to be resolved, even even

1078
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,440
Speaker 3: with an MVP. In the book, yep, right, when we

1079
00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:13,640
Speaker 3: talk about accuracy and whatever, and we can talk about

1080
00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:15,719
Speaker 3: the weapons that have been there, the offense they've run,

1081
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 3: but playoff success is eluded him. So that's got to

1082
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,360
Speaker 3: be That's one of those marks when you're starting to

1083
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:25,800
Speaker 3: go in it's like big games, end of year availability,

1084
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:28,279
Speaker 3: missing time as he has the last couple of years.

1085
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,400
Speaker 3: All of those go into the equation of someone offering

1086
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 3: a contract. So anybody that did me, well, he's a

1087
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 3: former MVP. He's right, it's a former MVP. It's a

1088
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:38,760
Speaker 3: couple of years ago, a couple of injuries shortened seasons

1089
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:42,640
Speaker 3: ago before you're coming in, and his value to the Ravens,

1090
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:45,239
Speaker 3: based on the system that they've built, the personnel that

1091
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 3: they've brought in, is going to be intrinsically higher than

1092
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:54,400
Speaker 3: any other organization in the National Football League.

1093
00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 1: When you look at Yeah, I just I it has

1094
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,799
Speaker 1: nothing to do with if Lamar Jackson says healthy and

1095
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 1: plays out the contract. I just love the fact that

1096
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens the process that you laid out to

1097
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: get Lamar Jackson to realize that this is the deal

1098
00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:13,680
Speaker 1: like it is. It's not manipulation. It's just the road

1099
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 1: that you have to take. And then the same argument

1100
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 1: of whether Lamar should be paid as much as he

1101
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 1: you know, is going to happen today, It's gonna happen

1102
00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:24,560
Speaker 1: next week. It's gonna happen next month. It's gonna happen

1103
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 1: during the season. Heck, Mike, it's gonna happen during next

1104
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: season as well. Like that conversation is not going away

1105
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 1: to be but to be able to get that deal done,

1106
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,720
Speaker 1: and Lamar still walks away with the best you know

1107
00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:38,520
Speaker 1: contract that there is tip of the cap to the

1108
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 1: Ravens for doing it.

1109
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,280
Speaker 3: A huge deal for him, and Harbaugh and company were

1110
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 3: mocked roundly throughout, including my guy Jason Smith. So whenever

1111
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 3: I get something really right, he's got to wear it.

1112
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,479
Speaker 3: Is that when Harbaugh was saying two hundred percent, Lamar

1113
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 3: is our guy, one lion. It's not lying if you

01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 3: that's all, but they made the top eleven six buck

1234
01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:24,400
Speaker 3: guys picked this past weekend.

1235
01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 1: All right, Ethan Miller, back around to you.

1236
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 3: All right, I'm gonna go with Clemson.

1237
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,040
Speaker 1: Clemson yeah, maybe a bit of a down year. But

1238
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:35,560
Speaker 1: did it show in the NFL draft? Show me the

1239
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 1: Clemson Tigers still producing? Is Dabbo six pros?

1240
01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:41,160
Speaker 4: Go?

1241
01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:50,360
Speaker 1: Or Clemson produces six pros? Clemson is off the board. Iowa, Sam,

1242
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:54,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Illinois. Ah, Illinois Brett Bielima's crew?

1243
01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:55,560
Speaker 1: Is it the Aliini?

1244
01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:56,919
Speaker 3: Nah?

1245
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:00,680
Speaker 1: Not? We still have two passes available. Over down to one.

1246
01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:02,560
Speaker 1: Strike over to Isaac Longcron.

1247
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:05,439
Speaker 5: Take me to another place, take me to another land.

1248
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 5: Those are lyrics to a song called Tennessee.

1249
01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 3: Take you to Tennessee, Tennessee?

1250
01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 1: Is it Tennessee? Is it Tennessee?

1251
01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 3: It is not? How about Iowa? Iowa? No, TCU, I

1252
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,840
Speaker 3: know he's a Chargers draft at least three of them.

1253
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 1: TCU is one of them. Notre Dame h No, it

1254
01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: was not. Notre Dame. SEC had sixty guys, sixty two

1255
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:37,360
Speaker 1: guys elected. Florida had six, LSU had six, Penn State

1256
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:41,960
Speaker 1: had six, and you ready for this, Pitt and Oregon

1257
01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:47,800
Speaker 1: had six. Those are your top eleven schools. Alabama, Georgia, Michigan, TCU, Florida, LSU,

1258
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:50,880
Speaker 1: Ohio State, Penn State, Clemson, Pitt and Oregon.

1259
01:05:50,600 --> 01:05:52,880
Speaker 3: Oh, that's too bad. Penn State seemed like one that

1260
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 3: I would have loved to have got on there, but

1261
01:05:56,280 --> 01:06:00,760
Speaker 3: you know, Clifford getting selected late obviously doing I.

1262
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,520
Speaker 1: Even told Mike during the break and said, you know what,

1263
01:06:02,640 --> 01:06:05,280
Speaker 1: this game today is actually not for us to get

1264
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:07,919
Speaker 1: a perfect score. It's not for us to have tons

1265
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 1: of laughs. It's for us to just shed some more

1266
01:06:11,120 --> 01:06:12,880
Speaker 1: light on what happened in the NFL draft. It was

1267
01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 1: more of an informational sort of feud. And so when

1268
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:19,720
Speaker 1: you have Pitt, you know, getting the you know, in

1269
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 1: this top eleven. Pitt was the reason we had two

1270
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 1: passes today. Guys, I'm gonna be completely honest, because I

1271
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:27,480
Speaker 1: didn't think anybody was gonna say that Pitt Panthers and

1272
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: you gonna have Jordan Addison. If you would have stayed

1273
01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:30,400
Speaker 1: at Pitt could have been seven.

1274
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:34,760
Speaker 3: That's a fair point. So yeah, figuring just piling up

1275
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 3: any SEC team was probably not a bad option. In

1276
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:41,360
Speaker 3: the guessing game of it all, Big ten obviously represented

1277
01:06:41,480 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 3: very well. Bears grabbed a duck, But I love that

1278
01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:50,040
Speaker 3: the Chargers had three TCU guests, Like why because they're

1279
01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:52,600
Speaker 3: Championship Metal, They're ready to go, They're gonna teach us

1280
01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:55,160
Speaker 3: how to win. Oh no, he didn't say that. I did.

1281
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:55,640
Speaker 3: He's Dad.

1282
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 4: I'm Mike.

1283
01:06:56,240 --> 01:06:59,640
Speaker 3: Coming up next the Lakers as a Cinderella. Come on now,

Speaker 3: on Fox Sports Radio listening this morning, Dan now asking

1298
01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 3: you for equipment advice and purchase prices and everything else.

1299
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,840
Speaker 3: Like you, you've now become the one stop shop. I mean,

1300
01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:58,800
Speaker 3: you should set up a Shopify account right now.

1301
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 1: My only advice is, if it's too good to be true,

1302
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:06,000
Speaker 1: it probably is. You're not going to get a top

1303
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 1: of the line driver for fifty dollars. It's not just

1304
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:11,240
Speaker 1: it's not going.

1305
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 3: On unless somebody got mad and sent it to Goodwill

1306
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:19,200
Speaker 3: because they were mad at their ex current there whatever, what.

1307
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 1: Does Taylor make? Uh, it's not it's not Taylor made.

1308
01:08:24,320 --> 01:08:26,560
Speaker 1: That's probably why it's fifty dollars.

1309
01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:33,640
Speaker 3: Right, nicely nicely maye nicely done at dan Byro on

1310
01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:37,679
Speaker 3: Fox Tomorrow. He will play over at La Country Club

1311
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:40,519
Speaker 3: as part of the media event. So a hole six

1312
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:44,320
Speaker 3: and fifteen he's going to record, and we've got the

1313
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 3: contest you can win some a piece of US open memorabilia.

1314
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:52,439
Speaker 1: I'm still nervous on the recording part. I don't know

1315
01:08:52,479 --> 01:08:55,479
Speaker 1: if it'll have well. I will try to give at

1316
01:08:55,560 --> 01:08:56,960
Speaker 1: least a live update of the score.

1317
01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 3: Can you can you do an Al Frank and camera

1318
01:08:59,240 --> 01:09:01,040
Speaker 3: thing like he used to do on Saturday at Live

1319
01:09:01,800 --> 01:09:04,880
Speaker 3: the mobile unit where he had like the antenna on

1320
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 3: top of his head so he could broadcast. And then

1321
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:08,920
Speaker 3: all of a sudden he was down on the docks

1322
01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:11,160
Speaker 3: and a drug deal was going bad and he's running

1323
01:09:11,479 --> 01:09:13,800
Speaker 3: and he's got the giant satellite dish on his head.

1324
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:14,559
Speaker 3: I mean, we could do that.

1325
01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:17,920
Speaker 1: I really the scores that have been pouring in Mike

1326
01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:22,960
Speaker 1: on predicting it. Some are when we get a low number,

1327
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:25,559
Speaker 1: it makes me feel good, but it adds pressure. Yeah,

1328
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 1: when I get a high number, I'm like, God, the

1329
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:28,479
Speaker 1: heck with you?

1330
01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 3: What do you do better than that? You've never seen

1331
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:33,120
Speaker 3: me swing a club.

1332
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 1: Oh, I love it.

1333
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:39,879
Speaker 3: That's fantastic at buyer score or a hashtag buyer scores

1334
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:42,519
Speaker 3: if you want to get your guests in. What's the

1335
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:48,440
Speaker 3: total of Dan's participation and holds six and fifteen tomorrow.

1336
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:52,600
Speaker 3: Now we turn our attention to the NBA playoffs. I

1337
01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:54,680
Speaker 3: was trying to think of a clever transition there, but

1338
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:58,360
Speaker 3: it goes from maybe you're a Cinderella story on those

1339
01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:00,799
Speaker 3: two holes man and you come up with the shots

1340
01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:03,400
Speaker 3: of your life. As you said, Some are trying to

1341
01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:07,960
Speaker 3: apply the tag to the Johnny Come Lately Los Angeles

1342
01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:12,880
Speaker 3: Lakers a team, yes, a team that suddenly there's a

1343
01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,719
Speaker 3: lot of positivity, and part of that was they played

1344
01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:19,360
Speaker 3: a team that has embraced at least some of the

1345
01:10:19,400 --> 01:10:24,920
Speaker 3: players the archvillain tag. Now, my brothers and I have

1346
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:26,920
Speaker 3: joked about it for a long time. There is the

1347
01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:31,080
Speaker 3: chant of you only sing when you're winning. In other words,

1348
01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 3: you're you're not talking, you're not participating your grousing if

1349
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,720
Speaker 3: your team's down and and or you're losing. And that's

1350
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:43,680
Speaker 3: Dylan Brooks walked away. John Morant at the end of

1351
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 3: the series as they go down to the Lakers kind

1352
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 3: of opened up a little bit and yeah, my off

1353
01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:52,760
Speaker 3: court stuff certainly was a hindrance to the squad, and

1354
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,480
Speaker 3: I recognize that I have to be better all of that,

1355
01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 3: as well as leaving the arena and the crowd singing

1356
01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 3: Nona Nana, Hey, Hey Hey. Going back to the south

1357
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,639
Speaker 3: Side Hittman of the Chicago White Sox in the late

1358
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,639
Speaker 3: seventies when that was a popular tune on the radio

1359
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:12,280
Speaker 3: and that Josh sang along with the fans leaned into it.

1360
01:11:12,280 --> 01:11:14,720
Speaker 3: It's like, you know what we lost, We'll take it

1361
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,759
Speaker 3: and wear it. But the narrative coming out of the Lakers,

1362
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:21,639
Speaker 3: everybody getting on board and calling it a Cinderella story

1363
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:25,000
Speaker 3: based on where they were in the conference, having to

1364
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:28,640
Speaker 3: play their way in the play in tournament and the

1365
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,760
Speaker 3: season that was and I think you and I are

1366
01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:34,920
Speaker 3: in agreement on this, and it's something we'd banged the

1367
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 3: drum on. I think the last couple of weeks is

1368
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:41,160
Speaker 3: they were expected to be good, right, they were expected

1369
01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:43,800
Speaker 3: to be good. A lot of question marks about Russell Westbrook. Well,

1370
01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:48,519
Speaker 3: they excized him, rob a link in company. Get your

1371
01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 3: flowers for the executive moves that you made to reshape

1372
01:11:52,760 --> 01:11:56,240
Speaker 3: this team. But when you've got Lebron James and Anthony

1373
01:11:56,320 --> 01:12:01,400
Speaker 3: Davis as your anchors, being a low seed and backing

1374
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:05,719
Speaker 3: into the playoffs is not exactly coming from a place

1375
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:10,200
Speaker 3: of Cinderella. You want to talk Cinderella Sacramento. Sure, yeah, right,

1376
01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:14,240
Speaker 3: they finished as the number three, but nobody expected that.

1377
01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,680
Speaker 3: We may have expected a better season, but not what

1378
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 3: they did and certainly not the roads success that they

1379
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:23,400
Speaker 3: had during the regular season. One of the few teams,

1380
01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:26,960
Speaker 3: as we chronicled talking about the playoffs last week, damn,

1381
01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 3: is so many teams in the Western Conference were five

1382
01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,120
Speaker 3: hundred or below on the road. And then you've got

1383
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:33,000
Speaker 3: the young Kings.

1384
01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:36,200
Speaker 1: They just go and play, Yes, they absolutely do it.

1385
01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 1: Even that number, if that number is three next to them,

1386
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:44,320
Speaker 1: there is that Cinderella feeling and the Lakers with that

1387
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:48,320
Speaker 1: number seven next to them, I'm sorry, it's just they

1388
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:52,000
Speaker 1: can't be a Cinderella, just like North Carolina was in

1389
01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:54,240
Speaker 1: a cinderella when they made their runs to the National

1390
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:56,840
Speaker 1: Championship Game a little over a year ago. In the

1391
01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:01,000
Speaker 1: NCAA tournament, they were an eighth seed put there but

1392
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 1: the number after eight, said North Carolina, and I don't care.

1393
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:08,760
Speaker 1: They're at eight, nine, ten or eleven. And it's the

1394
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 1: same thing with the Lakers. When you have the Lakers

1395
01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:16,479
Speaker 1: and you have Lebron James on your team, there's no

1396
01:13:16,560 --> 01:13:19,719
Speaker 1: way that they can be a Cinderella. But the reason

1397
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:22,679
Speaker 1: I think that we've come up with this conversation, Mike

1398
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:26,120
Speaker 1: is twofold number one. It is that number that's before them,

1399
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:30,919
Speaker 1: because we rarely see lower seeded teams make these pushes,

1400
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 1: and now there is a path for the Lakers to

1401
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:37,840
Speaker 1: maybe do more damage than what we originally thought, or

1402
01:13:37,840 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 1: at least some of us originally thought. But the other

1403
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:43,720
Speaker 1: part of the equation is the Memphis Grizzlies did the

1404
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:49,960
Speaker 1: absolute impossible. They made a Lakers team, and one with

1405
01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:53,400
Speaker 1: Lebron James on the Lakers team, a team he wanted

1406
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 1: to cheer for, Like Dylan Brooks not talking to the media,

1407
01:13:58,240 --> 01:14:01,080
Speaker 1: like he was getting enough flack when he was talking,

1408
01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 1: and I think you have to stick to the script.

1409
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:08,479
Speaker 1: You can't just not talk anymore. And what has gone

1410
01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:10,960
Speaker 1: on that team is so unlikable. We've talked about how

1411
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:14,400
Speaker 1: they're picking fights with everybody in the regular season. They

1412
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:17,080
Speaker 1: have beef with the Warriors, they have beef with the Suns,

1413
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:20,439
Speaker 1: They've got beef with Minnesota. Now they have beef with

1414
01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:24,799
Speaker 1: the Lakers, like they're everybody's enemy, and that gets annoying

1415
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:29,360
Speaker 1: after a while. And the Pistons leaned into their bad

1416
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:33,759
Speaker 1: boy aspect and the Memphis Grizzlies came off as posers.

1417
01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:37,599
Speaker 1: They really did, like Dylan Brook's not talking and backing up,

1418
01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 1: he's having the SoundBite for when he's winning, and all

1419
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: of that stuff that piled on and John Morant to

1420
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:48,320
Speaker 1: the Strip Club and Ja Morant's eighteen minutes in therapy

1421
01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:52,519
Speaker 1: to clear his mind and whatever went on gave this

1422
01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:57,559
Speaker 1: Memphis Grizzlies team an essence of I don't know if

1423
01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,000
Speaker 1: I really liked that squad. And then you have Dylan

1424
01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:03,120
Speaker 1: Brook's mouthing off. You actually had people liking the Lakers

1425
01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:05,960
Speaker 1: and wanting Lebron to winning the playoffs with Lebron in

1426
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:09,080
Speaker 1: a Lakers uniform that aren't Laker diehards or Laker fans.

1427
01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:12,080
Speaker 1: And I think that that is that is amazing. So

1428
01:15:12,160 --> 01:15:13,760
Speaker 1: now you look at the Lakers and you say they

1429
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:16,880
Speaker 1: beat the number two seed, you know, are they the Cinderella.

1430
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:19,559
Speaker 1: There's just there's just no way. There's no way because

1431
01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:22,559
Speaker 1: we look at the Lakers now differently because we actually

1432
01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:25,799
Speaker 1: wanted them to beat Memphis, which is just crazy to sound,

1433
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,280
Speaker 1: but there's no way they could be considered a Cinderella.

1434
01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:28,519
Speaker 2: Now.

1435
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:30,320
Speaker 3: One of the things that you and I as we

1436
01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:34,559
Speaker 3: exchanged notes and chatted a bit before the show, how

1437
01:15:34,640 --> 01:15:37,280
Speaker 3: much different is the are things if Steven Adams actually

1438
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 3: can play and and but I mean to be a

1439
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 3: voice that where you actually have an adult in the room.

1440
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 1: You need that, you need it really bad. You need

1441
01:15:47,160 --> 01:15:50,280
Speaker 1: you need somebody who's actually had success that can can

1442
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:52,400
Speaker 1: talk to these guys. And Steven Adams when they were

1443
01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:55,600
Speaker 1: having the issues, it was brought up like a you know,

1444
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:59,639
Speaker 1: a veteran spoke in the locker room. And Steven Adams

1445
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:01,360
Speaker 1: is twenty nine years old and he was the oldest

1446
01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:06,840
Speaker 1: guy on the roster. It's crazy you Donnas. Haslam's career

1447
01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:10,479
Speaker 1: with the Miami Heat has basically just been there for

1448
01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:11,320
Speaker 1: Heat culture.

1449
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:14,599
Speaker 3: That you got an extra seven or eight years of

1450
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 3: his career just kind of being there to be a

1451
01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 3: voice of reason. Make sure that in the current iteration

1452
01:16:22,240 --> 01:16:26,320
Speaker 3: with Jimmy Butler and company, that everybody plays nice sandbox

1453
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:27,080
Speaker 3: and keeps moving.

1454
01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 1: There is no one on that team that really has

1455
01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 1: accomplished anything that can tell Dylan Brooks or can tell

1456
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:40,400
Speaker 1: John Morant or to try to show them of what

1457
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:43,439
Speaker 1: it takes to be a champion. That is maybe what

1458
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:47,040
Speaker 1: Memphis needs, because then a veteran would also hit a

1459
01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,360
Speaker 1: Dylan Brooks. If you're gonna do that, you better lean

1460
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:51,880
Speaker 1: into it. If you're gonna poke the bear, you better

1461
01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:53,360
Speaker 1: be able to be there at the end instead of

1462
01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:56,040
Speaker 1: just saying deuce as I'm out. And I mean, it's

1463
01:16:56,080 --> 01:17:00,320
Speaker 1: just so unlikable and it's it's just it's not and

1464
01:17:00,400 --> 01:17:04,840
Speaker 1: day to the grind. You know, the grindhouse teams that

1465
01:17:04,840 --> 01:17:08,679
Speaker 1: they had with Tony Allen and Marcasol and Zach Randolph

1466
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:13,479
Speaker 1: and those Memphis Grizzly squad squads, they weren't pretty Mike,

1467
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:16,320
Speaker 1: but they were matchup nightmares for some teams in the West,

1468
01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 1: and you could get behind them and be like, all right,

1469
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,800
Speaker 1: Memphis is going to do their thing. John Moran has

1470
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 1: the superstar capabilities to have that sort of following. But

1471
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:27,040
Speaker 1: something needs to change to at least make that team

1472
01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:30,639
Speaker 1: somewhat likable. And I think that they need a veteran

1473
01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:34,120
Speaker 1: or somebody, somebody that's older than twenty nine years old

1474
01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:36,519
Speaker 1: and has accomplished something to try to square away things

1475
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 1: in that locker room.

1476
01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:40,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you invoke the name of the Pistons

1477
01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 3: and their run. They spoke, they didn't back down whatever

1478
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:49,960
Speaker 3: the criticism was, and then they went one right, the

1479
01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:52,960
Speaker 3: old don't talk about it, be about it. And for

1480
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:57,320
Speaker 3: Dylan Brooks, everybody loves a villain, yes, right, Like the

1481
01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:01,080
Speaker 3: Warriors became a villion just because you were tie of them,

1482
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:03,920
Speaker 3: not because And maybe you don't like Draymond and there's

1483
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:06,519
Speaker 3: plenty of reasons. I think that people are turned off

1484
01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:10,800
Speaker 3: by him over time. Smart guy. I love, he's an

1485
01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:14,639
Speaker 3: interesting guy, good player, but I can understand where maybe

1486
01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:18,080
Speaker 3: you decide he's too much, maybe not your your cup

1487
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:21,280
Speaker 3: of tea. But as a team Steph Curry, Klay Thompson,

1488
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:26,160
Speaker 3: Steve Kerr gone down the line. There wasn't a I

1489
01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:30,120
Speaker 3: don't think legitimate hate for them as individuals like you

1490
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:33,759
Speaker 3: would have with your typical villains. Go back to Bill Lambier,

1491
01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:37,920
Speaker 3: Dennis Rodman, pick out. Even Isaiah Thomas was a guy

1492
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,400
Speaker 3: that could get under your skin. He still has beef

1493
01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:44,080
Speaker 3: with Michael Jordan forty years later, forty years later, still

1494
01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:47,360
Speaker 3: complaining at every turn, open microphone, let's talk about this

1495
01:18:47,439 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 3: playoff series. You know, Michael Jordan when he anyway, so

1496
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:57,400
Speaker 3: the idea of he but they but they went, but

1497
01:18:57,439 --> 01:19:01,360
Speaker 3: they went, they won, and when they were criticized, they

1498
01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:03,960
Speaker 3: hit the microphone and just said, yeah, this is how

1499
01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:06,920
Speaker 3: we play basketball. This is you know, we'll see on

1500
01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:09,839
Speaker 3: the court. And for Dylan Brooks, he looked the villain.

1501
01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:12,439
Speaker 3: He played up the WW I mean, he looked like

1502
01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 3: you could have been hanging out with Seth Rollins or

1503
01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:16,840
Speaker 3: any of these guys heading to Rustlemania. And then all

1504
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:20,200
Speaker 3: of a sudden he's radio silent. Hell, no, this is

1505
01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:21,439
Speaker 3: where you lean in.

1506
01:19:21,720 --> 01:19:24,360
Speaker 1: That's where you Yeah, you want it the most, actually.

1507
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:27,400
Speaker 3: And scream a bit more right and truly become the

1508
01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:29,080
Speaker 3: heel and if you go down in Flames, you go

1509
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:29,679
Speaker 3: down and flames.

1510
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:33,920
Speaker 1: Does Draymond do our podcast after wins? You know? No,

1511
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 1: he does it after he gets ejected or something happens,

1512
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:39,760
Speaker 1: or he fights with someone like that's when he that's

1513
01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:42,720
Speaker 1: what he does. That's what he does his podcast. He

1514
01:19:42,760 --> 01:19:44,840
Speaker 1: doesn't do it after a victory and talks an hour.

1515
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,320
Speaker 1: He does it when something goes wrong. And there's there's

1516
01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:51,040
Speaker 1: actually something about that you could respect Draymond. He doesn't there.

1517
01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:53,040
Speaker 1: You may tire of his act and be like, I

1518
01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:54,800
Speaker 1: don't like that guy, but I'll tell you what. He

1519
01:19:54,960 --> 01:19:58,920
Speaker 1: talks and talks and continues to talk win or lose,

1520
01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:01,880
Speaker 1: and you have to respect that aspect of it because

1521
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:05,120
Speaker 1: this is the flip side. This is what you don't want.

1522
01:20:05,240 --> 01:20:08,080
Speaker 1: You don't want a guy yap in and then not responding,

1523
01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,719
Speaker 1: and it kind of just leans into just the narrative

1524
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,760
Speaker 1: just they just make it so impossible for them to

1525
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,519
Speaker 1: cheer for the Memphis Grizzlies. And it doesn't have to

1526
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 1: be like that. With all the young talent they should be.

1527
01:20:18,760 --> 01:20:22,559
Speaker 1: They they don't have to be the Sacramento Kings. But

1528
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:24,800
Speaker 1: because you can have the edge, you could be who

1529
01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 1: you are, but man, just you know their actions when

1530
01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:30,600
Speaker 1: when the going gets tough, just leaves so much to

1531
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:31,240
Speaker 1: be desired.

1532
01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:35,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. So while not Cinderella, do appreciate, as I said,

1533
01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:38,000
Speaker 3: what Rob Polinka did, what Reeves has become. I thought

1534
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 3: it was interesting. D'Angelo Russell has that monster game in

1535
01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:46,639
Speaker 3: the clincher this last round in front of Kyrie Irving,

1536
01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 3: who he saw embracing Lebron James. Other than Jack Nicholson,

1537
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,320
Speaker 3: who will get into a little bit later. I don't

1538
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:55,720
Speaker 3: know that we saw anybody more than Kyrie Irving as

1539
01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:58,120
Speaker 3: part of that telecast before he left in the third quarter.

1540
01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:01,080
Speaker 1: I gotta work on my fake. Isaiah Timemus laugh, you know,

1541
01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 1: I got it, got it? I love you can track

1542
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:07,240
Speaker 1: it track and Isaiah Thomas laugh downe. But it is

1543
01:21:07,320 --> 01:21:10,120
Speaker 1: like right, it's like I.

1544
01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:12,439
Speaker 3: Can't even do it now now I'm I'm not saying yeah,

1545
01:21:12,479 --> 01:21:16,040
Speaker 3: but you get in your head just like the acting before. Man,

1546
01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:19,479
Speaker 3: you can't do it. You got you, you did it,

1547
01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:21,679
Speaker 3: but I mean you don't get another take. It's done.

1548
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:25,160
Speaker 1: I mean lived you know, near Hollywood. But I'm not

1549
01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:26,000
Speaker 1: cut out for it though.

1550
01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:28,160

1561
01:22:03,680 --> 01:22:06,240
Speaker 3: universe and the week that was. That's coming up next

01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:10,120
Speaker 3: here on Fox Sports Radio. Welcome back in Fox Sports

1563
01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:13,760
Speaker 3: a Radio live from the tirerac dot Com studios. Mike

Speaker 3: Card and Dan Byer with you fast furious episode of

1565
01:22:18,360 --> 01:22:20,760
Speaker 3: the program. If you missed any of it, podcast will

1566
01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:24,920
Speaker 3: be up in a little while, including our conversation that

1567
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:29,519
Speaker 3: we had talking all things us open as Jeff Hall

1568
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:34,200
Speaker 3: joined us here in the first hour. So yeah, NFL Playoffs,

1569
01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,559
Speaker 3: NFL Draft, Lamar Jackson so much, I think I've only

1570
01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:39,599
Speaker 3: said the name Aaron Rodgers once.

1571
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 1: I think it was twice, maybe twice we did dive

1572
01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:46,000
Speaker 1: in a little you know the golf question here it's

1573
01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:49,320
Speaker 1: April thirtieth, Robot to enter mate. Usually this was the

1574
01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:54,080
Speaker 1: time where you have this down period in golf because

1575
01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:56,920
Speaker 1: there's the gap between the majors of the masters in

1576
01:22:56,960 --> 01:23:00,639
Speaker 1: the US Open. Well, when the PGA moved to May

1577
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:04,960
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, it changed all of that. So you're

1578
01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:08,839
Speaker 1: wondering again, why maybe we're talking US Open. Well, tomorrow's

1579
01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:11,760
Speaker 1: the US Open Media Day at LA Country Club, and

1580
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:13,839
Speaker 1: so I'll be teeing it up. We're having our contest

1581
01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:17,920
Speaker 1: hashtag by your scores. You just guess the two the

1582
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:19,719
Speaker 1: total score that I get on two of the holes,

1583
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:23,080
Speaker 1: the sixth and the fifteenth part four and a par three,

1584
01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,200
Speaker 1: and yeah, you could maybe win a hat or something

1585
01:23:26,240 --> 01:23:26,559
Speaker 1: like that.

1586
01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:30,640
Speaker 3: I dug Jeff's caginess about how the holes are going

1587
01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:33,280
Speaker 3: to be set up a little bit of chaos. You

1588
01:23:33,320 --> 01:23:36,080
Speaker 3: brought up how they do the groupings, and and maybe

1589
01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:38,719
Speaker 3: some follow the clues and try to crack the code.

1590
01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:41,360
Speaker 3: You should win a prize for that too. If you

1591
01:23:41,479 --> 01:23:43,479
Speaker 3: crack all the codes, they should have one that threads

1592
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:45,240
Speaker 3: across every every group.

1593
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:47,519
Speaker 1: You may have one where like everybody's named Tom and

1594
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:49,680
Speaker 1: the group or some sort of Tom Thomas. You know,

1595
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:54,280
Speaker 1: you could have you could have Tom Hogy, Thomas Peters,

1596
01:23:54,600 --> 01:23:57,360
Speaker 1: and Tommy Fleetwood all playing in the same group. There's

1597
01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:59,639
Speaker 1: things that they've done with that. So in the week

1598
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,720
Speaker 1: of the Open, it's always fun to try to decipher

1599
01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:05,519
Speaker 1: what they put together. But it'll be it'll be fun.

1600
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:07,760
Speaker 1: You gont have par threes that range from ninety five

1601
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 1: yards to two hundred and ninety five yards at some

1602
01:24:10,479 --> 01:24:13,000
Speaker 1: point in that championship. That's that's the variety that you're

1603
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:16,400
Speaker 1: gonna get. If you follow any golf media members of

1604
01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:19,200
Speaker 1: those in southern California, you'll probably see picks tomorrow from it.

1605
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:22,559
Speaker 1: I'll provide some as well at Dan Byer on Fox.

1606
01:24:22,600 --> 01:24:25,840
Speaker 1: But that's also where you can chime in hashtag buyer

1607
01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:27,760
Speaker 1: scores and you can get in on the context. There

1608
01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:28,120
Speaker 1: you go.

1609
01:24:29,040 --> 01:24:32,799
Speaker 3: Would be remiss you said the name Hogi the Lehigh

1610
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:37,840
Speaker 3: Valley Iron Pigs to celebrate a salute to Philly Night

1611
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:40,720
Speaker 3: or changing their names to the Hogies. Okay, this is

1612
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:45,040
Speaker 3: and they've gotten merg Yeah, they've got the merge, including

1613
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:47,760
Speaker 3: a hat that has a picture of a sandwich on it.

1614
01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:49,320
Speaker 3: I feel like I have to get it.

1615
01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:52,160
Speaker 1: I also feel like the HOGI had its run years

1616
01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:55,360
Speaker 1: back where it was very very popular. Oh yeah, like

1617
01:24:55,680 --> 01:24:58,479
Speaker 1: I think, are we are we sliding out of the

1618
01:24:58,560 --> 01:24:59,879
Speaker 1: Hot Chicken popular?

1619
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:03,519
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, We've hit the saturation point because now

1620
01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:06,960
Speaker 3: I could throw a rock and hit one of like

1621
01:25:07,080 --> 01:25:11,639
Speaker 3: forty seven Hot Chicken or just Chicken Tender place at

1622
01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:11,960
Speaker 3: this point.

1623
01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 1: And I think the Wings obviously, you know the Wings

1624
01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,599
Speaker 1: locations that we have, and we know Buffalo Wild Wings

1625
01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:21,840
Speaker 1: is such a you know, huge brand, but get they

1626
01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:26,040
Speaker 1: get transitioned from Wings. I felt into Hot Chicken, and

1627
01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:27,720
Speaker 1: now I just I wonder what's next.

1628
01:25:27,720 --> 01:25:30,640
Speaker 3: But I do Nashville has fallen out of favor. Nashville

1629
01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:33,120
Speaker 3: Hot is no longer in all the ad copy.

1630
01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:36,120
Speaker 1: No, but they're on any restaurant, any any sort of

1631
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:39,559
Speaker 1: like American Fair restaurant. You now can get a Nashville

1632
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:40,400
Speaker 1: Chicken kind of thing.

1633
01:25:40,880 --> 01:25:43,519
Speaker 3: It is certainly there. Hey. Fox Sports Radio is twenty

01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,599

1645
01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:27,400
Speaker 3: Lebron James. We talked a lot about Dylan Brooks and

1646
01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:33,320
Speaker 3: going silent after the ouster by the Los Angeles Lakers.

1647
01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,960
Speaker 3: You know, that upstart, plucky, young team, the Los Angeles Lakers.

1648
01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:39,200
Speaker 1: Look at them the do gooders.

1649
01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:46,040
Speaker 3: And so in years past we had zero Dark twenty three, right,

1650
01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:50,479
Speaker 3: Lebron James not going into the media sphere whenever the

1651
01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:54,840
Speaker 3: playoffs were around, Well, not in twenty twenty three. And

1652
01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:59,160
Speaker 3: I'm gonna grab Lebron James and him hitting social media

1653
01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:03,080
Speaker 3: and tie it to Will Levis as he exited the

1654
01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:05,960
Speaker 3: NFL Draft, sat there and we saw him how many

1655
01:27:05,960 --> 01:27:10,080
Speaker 3: times twenty nine, thirty seven whatever it was number of

1656
01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:12,800
Speaker 3: times that because when you talk best available and he's

1657
01:27:12,800 --> 01:27:15,080
Speaker 3: sitting there in a draft room. Guess what you're gonna

1658
01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:16,559
Speaker 3: show a Pictureum.

1659
01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:18,760
Speaker 1: I know, I know that you guys were on immediately

1660
01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:20,960
Speaker 1: following Did you have your eyes on the NFL network

1661
01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:24,759
Speaker 1: or the ESPN broadcast question? I don't even remember, Okay,

1662
01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:28,760
Speaker 1: just because I watched the NFL network broadcast and I

1663
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:31,320
Speaker 1: did not watch the ESPN broadcast, But I felt like

1664
01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:34,720
Speaker 1: there was more from what I heard, there was more

1665
01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,960
Speaker 1: focus on Levis on the ESPN broadcast. Yeah. The NFL

1666
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:39,559
Speaker 1: network kind of tried to keep it really, you know.

1667
01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:42,320
Speaker 3: Well, it's like the MLB thing of hey, there's nothing

1668
01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:44,719
Speaker 3: to see here with these fans with signs that hate

1669
01:27:44,720 --> 01:27:48,639
Speaker 3: you and your team. Yes, plausible deniability, Hey you didn't

1670
01:27:48,680 --> 01:27:52,120
Speaker 3: see it. I likewise, NFL network, do not make him

1671
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 3: the story would be, might be my guest from the

1672
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:57,080
Speaker 3: executives and the producers.

1673
01:27:57,000 --> 01:27:59,719
Speaker 1: They didn't avoid it, but it wasn't like front and center.

1674
01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:04,880
Speaker 3: Yes, sure, and if in future references there might be

1675
01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:08,320
Speaker 3: a third channel, you know, or the ohow would be

1676
01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:11,759
Speaker 3: the all Will Levis channel. Sure to watch him sip

1677
01:28:11,800 --> 01:28:13,519
Speaker 3: his drink or look at his phone or whatever the

1678
01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:16,120
Speaker 3: case may be. But I tie them together, for this.

1679
01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:18,719
Speaker 3: Will Levice didn't come back for Night two of the draft,

1680
01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:22,439
Speaker 3: was drafted pretty quickly and off the board he goes

1681
01:28:23,280 --> 01:28:27,759
Speaker 3: but didn't come back. Subject of a lot of ridicule online,

1682
01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:31,200
Speaker 3: everybody looking at the girlfriend making jokes about how he

1683
01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:33,880
Speaker 3: since he didn't go in the first round, Well it

1684
01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:36,719
Speaker 3: might not be his girlfriend. I mean no where everything

1685
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:41,360
Speaker 3: played out, but he didn't come back, and naturally we'd

1686
01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 3: drifted draft day and Bo Callahan and when he did,

1687
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:47,960
Speaker 3: he had to go and grab him as he left

1688
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,680
Speaker 3: the left the draft. He's like, no, no, no, this is

1689
01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:52,800
Speaker 3: a bad look. You gotta go back in not coming

1690
01:28:52,840 --> 01:28:55,240
Speaker 3: back to the draft to me, like I would have

1691
01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:57,680
Speaker 3: leaned into it. I like to think I would have

1692
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:01,800
Speaker 3: regardless of the ridicule. Damn it. I'm here, so I'm

1693
01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:04,160
Speaker 3: going to show up, yes, and I'm going to take

1694
01:29:04,160 --> 01:29:07,519
Speaker 3: that walk across the stage because this is not about me,

1695
01:29:07,720 --> 01:29:10,200
Speaker 3: just about me. It's about everybody to help me get here,

1696
01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:12,439
Speaker 3: and why not celebrate that moment.

1697
01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:16,840
Speaker 1: The thing that bothered me about it, Mike, is you

1698
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:22,760
Speaker 1: hear the coach speak from these prospects and players. It's

1699
01:29:22,840 --> 01:29:24,919
Speaker 1: just a dream of mine to play in the NFL

1700
01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:31,360
Speaker 1: and the message is I understand that Thursday was an

1701
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:35,000
Speaker 1: awful day for will Evis. I understand that. I get that,

1702
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:38,839
Speaker 1: but it's going to be a small chapter in your career.

1703
01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:41,599
Speaker 1: And the message that you're sending my not showing up

1704
01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:44,599
Speaker 1: is it's a dream of mine to play in the NFL,

1705
01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:47,639
Speaker 1: but really only if I'm a first round draft pick.

1706
01:29:47,960 --> 01:29:49,280
Speaker 1: Like That's that's the.

1707
01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:52,080
Speaker 3: First piece of adversity you've got as a professional athlete.

1708
01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:54,679
Speaker 3: Now you want to scream at your agent and your

1709
01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:58,479
Speaker 3: managers and whoever might have given you bad intel of

1710
01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:01,840
Speaker 3: what was going on. That's between you and them. But

1711
01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:04,920
Speaker 3: for the outward facing, we get into it, and as

1712
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,639
Speaker 3: much as you may not like it, it's a game

1713
01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:09,800
Speaker 3: of optics, and the optics were that you pouted and

1714
01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:10,240
Speaker 3: you went home.

1715
01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:13,960
Speaker 1: Brian Branch was not drafted in the first round, was

1716
01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:16,200
Speaker 1: drafted in the second round and was at the NFL

1717
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:19,360
Speaker 1: Draft on Friday and was able to walk on stage

1718
01:30:19,920 --> 01:30:23,400
Speaker 1: and just to see that and to see what he

1719
01:30:23,520 --> 01:30:27,160
Speaker 1: received in the kudos tells you all that you need

1720
01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:31,400
Speaker 1: to know. And I understand that Thursday stunk Mike. It

1721
01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:36,479
Speaker 1: was an awful night for him, But whatever questions and

1722
01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:39,439
Speaker 1: whatever reasons, he fell in the draft, whether it's his

1723
01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:43,599
Speaker 1: play in twenty twenty two, whether it's you know something

1724
01:30:43,640 --> 01:30:45,800
Speaker 1: maybe that happened in the meaning who knows, who knows

1725
01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:50,479
Speaker 1: what the reason was. This doesn't help it, and maybe

1726
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:52,639
Speaker 1: in the long run it's not that big of a deal.

1727
01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:55,320
Speaker 1: But I thought he could have gained a lot. Like

1728
01:30:55,360 --> 01:30:57,479
Speaker 1: for you felt like you lost a lot by not

1729
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,800
Speaker 1: being picked on Thursday. By showing up up Friday and

1730
01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:04,599
Speaker 1: being there and having that moment, I think you really

1731
01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:06,760
Speaker 1: would have gained a lot. I think you would have

1732
01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:09,720
Speaker 1: gained a lot of fans, right, you know, in doing so,

1733
01:31:09,880 --> 01:31:13,760
Speaker 1: And I just it was disappointing to see. I, you know,

1734
01:31:13,840 --> 01:31:17,600
Speaker 1: I I would think that if if it was me,

1735
01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:20,559
Speaker 1: if I had that opportunity, I would want to do

1736
01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:24,040
Speaker 1: what Brian Branch did, and that's return and have my

1737
01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:27,080
Speaker 1: name called and walk out on stage and have my

1738
01:31:27,080 --> 01:31:29,599
Speaker 1: my moment, my dream that I dreamed about of playing

1739
01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:32,280
Speaker 1: in being drafted in the NFL and playing in the NFL,

1740
01:31:32,360 --> 01:31:33,400
Speaker 1: realized still.

1741
01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:36,759
Speaker 3: Heard your name called. Instead, he had a flight delay

1742
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:39,200
Speaker 3: and found out as he was walking in the door

1743
01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:43,000
Speaker 3: to eat a sandwich, maybe a HOGI who knows, but

1744
01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:45,000
Speaker 3: the id to see how you tie everything together here

1745
01:31:45,040 --> 01:31:47,479
Speaker 3: on Fox Sports Radio. But it's just the idea of

1746
01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:51,680
Speaker 3: adding fuel, right, because it might have been a bunch

1747
01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:53,559
Speaker 3: of smoke, Right, we had stories all of a sudden,

1748
01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:58,600
Speaker 3: Oh it's a total played and we've been in the

1749
01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:01,200
Speaker 3: draft process for months. If the toe was an issue,

1750
01:32:01,320 --> 01:32:02,920
Speaker 3: you don't think someone would have leaked that at some

1751
01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:07,599
Speaker 3: point in this day and age where we find out everything. Well,

1752
01:32:07,840 --> 01:32:11,000
Speaker 3: the fact that teams might have been concerned about his toe,

1753
01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:12,760
Speaker 3: it seems like we would have heard about that.

1754
01:32:12,880 --> 01:32:15,280
Speaker 1: I think that would have been the jump the shark moment,

1755
01:32:15,720 --> 01:32:18,080
Speaker 1: Like we'd be like, remember the year we downgraded Will

1756
01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:21,680
Speaker 1: Levis because of his toe? That's what it would have

1757
01:32:21,680 --> 01:32:24,559
Speaker 1: popped up. Like we can say c J. Stroud's you know,

1758
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:27,960
Speaker 1: a S two score was not good, Jalen Carter, you

1759
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:30,640
Speaker 1: know off season, you know, with a whole bunch of

1760
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:33,320
Speaker 1: question marks, you can understand. But if we were to

1761
01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:36,719
Speaker 1: say toe, just because it's a toe and we don't

1762
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:39,200
Speaker 1: know exactly which toe, I don't think it would matter

1763
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:41,519
Speaker 1: if it was the pinky or the big toe. I

1764
01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:43,759
Speaker 1: think that that would be a reason why we'd be like, Okay,

1765
01:32:43,760 --> 01:32:44,559
Speaker 1: what are we doing here?

1766
01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:46,519
Speaker 3: Got to take care of the captain of the toes.

1767
01:32:46,680 --> 01:32:48,760
Speaker 3: Now I tie this to Lebron. James and I talked

1768
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:52,559
Speaker 3: about zero Dark twenty three that he goes to social media.

1769
01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:56,760
Speaker 3: He's doing so song lyrics, and he goes and flames

1770
01:32:57,120 --> 01:33:01,160
Speaker 3: Dylan Brooks and multiple turns. Right, if you see grizzly

1771
01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:02,760
Speaker 3: bear in the woods, if I'm out for a walk,

1772
01:33:02,800 --> 01:33:05,760
Speaker 3: pray for the grizzly bear. All of these things. He

1773
01:33:05,800 --> 01:33:10,960
Speaker 3: didn't do the handshake of anybody after they eliminated the Grizzlies.

1774
01:33:11,479 --> 01:33:14,599
Speaker 3: Here was the opportunity to be front and center against

1775
01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:18,800
Speaker 3: a team that diminished. You Dylan Brooks today and he's old.

1776
01:33:18,920 --> 01:33:22,400
Speaker 3: I don't care. All of that that fueled everything into

1777
01:33:22,479 --> 01:33:26,280
Speaker 3: that forty point burial on Friday night. I would have

1778
01:33:26,320 --> 01:33:28,719
Speaker 3: been standing there at mid court with my handout saying,

1779
01:33:28,760 --> 01:33:33,360
Speaker 3: come on, good job, good effort, like that Miami Heap

1780
01:33:33,520 --> 01:33:36,800
Speaker 3: kid all those years ago. This was an opportunity to

1781
01:33:36,880 --> 01:33:41,360
Speaker 3: lean into that. Instead you go to social media.

1782
01:33:42,360 --> 01:33:46,120
Speaker 1: I think they're two different things my opinion. I think

1783
01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:49,280
Speaker 1: the social media thing tells us where Lebron is in

1784
01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:53,680
Speaker 1: his game and where he is at his age. And

1785
01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:58,519
Speaker 1: I think that we talked about Lebron NonStop and we

1786
01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:01,479
Speaker 1: probably still do. But when we were talking about him

1787
01:34:01,520 --> 01:34:03,479
Speaker 1: ten years ago, you know, in the middle of the

1788
01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:06,640
Speaker 1: heat run, and then when he was doing with the Cavaliers,

1789
01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:08,599
Speaker 1: we knew that he was the best player in the game,

1790
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:13,240
Speaker 1: like he's not the best player in the game right now.

1791
01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:17,000
Speaker 1: So I think that that is why we're hearing from him.

1792
01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:21,799
Speaker 1: I the the Dylan Brooks crossing the line. I'm actually

1793
01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:24,400
Speaker 1: glad Lebron didn't shake his hand to try to sue

1794
01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:27,400
Speaker 1: that over. Let Dylan Brooks hang in the wind, let

1795
01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:29,320
Speaker 1: the you know, let them all hang in the wind

1796
01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:31,840
Speaker 1: and deal with whatever, because if you're not going to

1797
01:34:31,880 --> 01:34:35,160
Speaker 1: talk because he didn't talk after their other losses, I didn't.

1798
01:34:35,200 --> 01:34:36,960
Speaker 1: I don't have a I don't have a problem with

1799
01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:39,240
Speaker 1: that as much I do. I just I do think

1800
01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:41,120
Speaker 1: that the him now on Twitter and social media when

1801
01:34:41,120 --> 01:34:43,160
Speaker 1: he wouldn't do it in the past, tells us where

1802
01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:45,600
Speaker 1: Lebron's you know, a little bit of his mindset is

1803
01:34:45,640 --> 01:34:46,200
Speaker 1: as well.

1804
01:34:46,080 --> 01:34:48,120
Speaker 3: Well, and as we do in radio as we expand

1805
01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:52,639
Speaker 3: into different platforms, be it at Buyer Talk or harmon Rants,

1806
01:34:52,760 --> 01:34:55,719
Speaker 3: or at Dan at Dan Byron Fox, or at Swollen

1807
01:34:55,760 --> 01:34:58,880
Speaker 3: Dome on Twitter. That's also my Instagram, and you know

1808
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:01,960
Speaker 3: we're going where the audiences are, and so Lebron going

1809
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:03,840
Speaker 3: too social media. It's a nice place to do it.

1810
01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:05,599
Speaker 3: I didn't know if he'd go in the post game

1811
01:35:05,640 --> 01:35:08,800
Speaker 3: and spit some bars or not. But the idea of

1812
01:35:08,840 --> 01:35:11,800
Speaker 3: the handshake, to me, was just a missed opportunity to

1813
01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:15,840
Speaker 3: just be like see you like in person. Look they

1814
01:35:15,840 --> 01:35:18,280
Speaker 3: didn't come to me or whatever, like put the onus

1815
01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:22,000
Speaker 3: on them to show there how poor a loser they

1816
01:35:22,040 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 3: are in another another.

1817
01:35:24,720 --> 01:35:27,360
Speaker 1: Instance, to show that Lebron is the bigger guy.

1818
01:35:27,520 --> 01:35:30,599
Speaker 3: No, that's it, like to win some points when everybody

1819
01:35:30,720 --> 01:35:33,360
Speaker 3: because look up until about three weeks ago, it was

1820
01:35:33,400 --> 01:35:36,200
Speaker 3: all about anything. You know, Lebron's done, he's washed up.

1821
01:35:36,240 --> 01:35:40,439
Speaker 3: Even after Game five, he's tired, and this is perhaps

1822
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:43,439
Speaker 3: going sideways, look out for the grizz And then they

1823
01:35:43,439 --> 01:35:46,000
Speaker 3: came out and buried them with a huge effort to' angelo,

1824
01:35:46,120 --> 01:35:48,960
Speaker 3: Russell and company coming up huge thought what it would

1825
01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:51,120
Speaker 3: have just been a great opportunity, like I'm still here.

1826
01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:54,920
Speaker 1: Interesting, Yeah, I just I don't subscribe to it. I

1827
01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:58,599
Speaker 1: like to let him hang. Don't give them any reason

1828
01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:01,920
Speaker 1: Lebron does have any reason to lift them up or

1829
01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:06,880
Speaker 1: give them a hand, none, none, whatsoever, because it seemed

1830
01:36:06,920 --> 01:36:10,280
Speaker 1: like it did cross the line. I don't think it did,

1831
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:14,559
Speaker 1: but it seemed like it did. And then then again,

1832
01:36:14,680 --> 01:36:16,280
Speaker 1: just going back to the fact that you're not talking

1833
01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:19,680
Speaker 1: in the post game, just I just can't get over that,

1834
01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:22,479
Speaker 1: and just it's such a such a bad look. It's

1835
01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:25,719
Speaker 1: just it's I didn't play heel right.

1836
01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:29,080
Speaker 3: Right, play heel by leaning in, grabbing the microphone at

1837
01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:33,200
Speaker 3: every turn. Yes, and no matter how outrageous it gets,

1838
01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:37,320
Speaker 3: you go one step further. Father time has staved off

1839
01:36:37,320 --> 01:36:40,439
Speaker 3: elimination this round. I'll see you next year. I I

1840
01:36:40,439 --> 01:36:41,639
Speaker 3: know we got to get to Ilo quick.

1841
01:36:41,680 --> 01:36:45,880
Speaker 1: But do you think Lebron didn't do the social media

1842
01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:50,160
Speaker 1: avoidance because he didn't know how long you had last

1843
01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:53,160
Speaker 1: in the postseason? Like I actually think that plays into it.

1844
01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:55,680
Speaker 1: In the past, you knew he was they were going

1845
01:36:55,760 --> 01:36:56,920
Speaker 1: to be in it for at least a month and

1846
01:36:56,920 --> 01:36:58,120
Speaker 1: a half, They were going to make it to a

1847
01:36:58,160 --> 01:37:01,080
Speaker 1: conference final, they were probably gonna make to the NBA finals.

1848
01:37:01,640 --> 01:37:04,760
Speaker 1: But if you were to only do a you know,

1849
01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:08,439
Speaker 1: she lost in the playing tournament and then lost again

1850
01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:11,240
Speaker 1: and you're out, your social media absence would have been

1851
01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:15,559
Speaker 1: you know, three weeks. So I wonder if like that

1852
01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:17,519
Speaker 1: was the fact that he's like, Okay, I really can't

1853
01:37:17,560 --> 01:37:18,760
Speaker 1: do it. Like back then, it was more of a

1854
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:21,680
Speaker 1: guarantee here, even if it was just like the two

1855
01:37:21,760 --> 01:37:23,280
Speaker 1: or three weeks, if they end up losing in the

1856
01:37:23,280 --> 01:37:25,920
Speaker 1: conference semifinals and then it's over with, doesn't have the

1857
01:37:25,920 --> 01:37:29,439
Speaker 1: effect of like the two months wipe that you previously had.

1858
01:37:29,560 --> 01:37:31,599
Speaker 3: That's a fair point. I like that. Hey, let's get

1966
01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:47,439
Speaker 1: like the I would tune in more I think in

1967
01:42:47,439 --> 01:42:49,599
Speaker 1: the old days of the Sunday than I do now

1968
01:42:49,680 --> 01:42:52,200
Speaker 1: with the Saturday. Sure's a lot of it is recapping

1969
01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:55,519
Speaker 1: what happened on Thursday and then just having random picks.

1970
01:42:55,560 --> 01:42:58,719
Speaker 1: They're talking about picks and they're five picks down the line.

1971
01:42:59,240 --> 01:43:02,519
Speaker 1: So it's Saturday. Is a tough watch for me when

1972
01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:03,479
Speaker 1: it comes to the draft.

1973
01:43:03,720 --> 01:43:06,439
Speaker 3: Now, Dan, as you know, I have to listen to

1974
01:43:06,520 --> 01:43:09,679
Speaker 3: a lot of I don't want to use the word inane,

1975
01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,880
Speaker 3: but it's early Sunday. There's no chance he's listening. And

1976
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:15,360
Speaker 3: am takes from my guy Jason Smith on the weeknight

1977
01:43:15,360 --> 01:43:19,760
Speaker 3: show seven to eleven here, Pacific, Fox Sports Radio, and

1978
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,160
Speaker 3: many of them, Well, we'll get into battles, we'll get

1979
01:43:22,200 --> 01:43:25,080
Speaker 3: into arguments. But one I've kind of I've liked because

1980
01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:28,640
Speaker 3: he theorized it more as a yeah, in theory, this

1981
01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:30,880
Speaker 3: is how you should operate a team. You know, I'm

1982
01:43:30,920 --> 01:43:32,720
Speaker 3: gonna be the smart guy in the room, and this

1983
01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:35,000
Speaker 3: one I kind of subscribe to to a degree. And

1984
01:43:35,040 --> 01:43:38,400
Speaker 3: it looks like to at least a little bit, we're

1985
01:43:38,479 --> 01:43:41,240
Speaker 3: pushing towards that in the NFL. But they're calling it

1986
01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:44,960
Speaker 3: the party effect, mister irrelevant, like that's the name being

1987
01:43:44,960 --> 01:43:47,760
Speaker 3: of describe coming out of the twenty three draft. But

1988
01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:51,400
Speaker 3: given what brock Perty did in limited sample size last year,

1989
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:53,880
Speaker 3: now the report for me in rapaport hey, Trey Lance

1990
01:43:53,880 --> 01:43:55,720
Speaker 3: could be the number three. I really thought he was

1991
01:43:55,760 --> 01:43:58,080
Speaker 3: gonna get dealt during the draft, so that didn't happen.

1992
01:43:58,320 --> 01:44:01,120
Speaker 3: But either way, whatever happens there, but the pretty effect

1993
01:44:01,160 --> 01:44:05,879
Speaker 3: of making sure you have another guy that fits your system,

1994
01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:08,760
Speaker 3: that gets up to speed and is ready to go

1995
01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:11,960
Speaker 3: in theory that should have already been in place for

1996
01:44:11,960 --> 01:44:14,439
Speaker 3: a long time. Smith's theory was basically in the final

1997
01:44:14,520 --> 01:44:17,160
Speaker 3: rounds of a draft, take a couple of quarterbacks and

1998
01:44:17,240 --> 01:44:19,360
Speaker 3: let them battle it out for the backup. See who

1999
01:44:19,400 --> 01:44:24,040
Speaker 3: acclimates fastest, so that if your starter goes down, you're ready,

2000
01:44:24,160 --> 01:44:26,400
Speaker 3: as opposed to a lot of times where there seems

2001
01:44:26,439 --> 01:44:29,160
Speaker 3: to be absolute chaos. Now the drop off is always

2002
01:44:29,200 --> 01:44:31,920
Speaker 3: going to be stark in theory from your starter to

2003
01:44:32,040 --> 01:44:35,880
Speaker 3: the backup. But for some teams it absolutely tanks a season,

2004
01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:38,559
Speaker 3: which is why I always defended the Jordan Love drafting

2005
01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:42,240
Speaker 3: by the Packers, because they watched what happened when Brent

2006
01:44:42,320 --> 01:44:44,559
Speaker 3: Huntley had to play and was ill equipped to do it.

2007
01:44:44,840 --> 01:44:48,160
Speaker 3: An early hot start went to, yeah, we're done, the

2008
01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:52,080
Speaker 3: season's finished, So I would subscribe to that. So the

2009
01:44:52,200 --> 01:44:54,640
Speaker 3: Purty effect, as it's been labeled with the number of

2010
01:44:54,720 --> 01:44:59,080
Speaker 3: quarterbacks selected this year, means perhaps people are re examining

2011
01:44:59,120 --> 01:44:59,760
Speaker 3: the QB room.

2012
01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:02,679
Speaker 1: I think the pretty effect is you have a dollar

2013
01:45:02,840 --> 01:45:06,960
Speaker 1: left at the casino, and what slot machine do you

2014
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:09,519
Speaker 1: put it in? Do you put it into the one

2015
01:45:09,600 --> 01:45:12,439
Speaker 1: that has the one thousand dollars jackpot or do you

2016
01:45:12,439 --> 01:45:15,240
Speaker 1: put it the one that has the million dollar jackpot?

2017
01:45:16,040 --> 01:45:17,840
Speaker 1: And your odds are better to win the thousand dollars.

2018
01:45:17,880 --> 01:45:20,160
Speaker 1: For surely have one dollar, so you have a seventh

2019
01:45:20,240 --> 01:45:23,080
Speaker 1: round pick, you put it in the million to hit

2020
01:45:23,160 --> 01:45:27,960
Speaker 1: your your home run. I the direct correlation of pretty

2021
01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:31,519
Speaker 1: success and to have the number of quarterbacks taken I

2022
01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:34,479
Speaker 1: think is real. I just think to your point of

2023
01:45:34,960 --> 01:45:38,280
Speaker 1: you have to have all these quarterbacks hurt to get

2024
01:45:38,320 --> 01:45:41,200
Speaker 1: to this point to even play this guy. And usually

2025
01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:43,639
Speaker 1: even if your number one guy gets hurt, your season

2026
01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,439
Speaker 1: is over with. And so I just it's to me,

2027
01:45:46,520 --> 01:45:49,800
Speaker 1: it's not sustainable. But that's what that's what I view

2028
01:45:49,840 --> 01:45:52,400
Speaker 1: this is. If you've got that dollar, just put it

2029
01:45:52,439 --> 01:45:54,160
Speaker 1: in the slot machine where you could win a million,

2030
01:45:54,360 --> 01:45:56,760
Speaker 1: because you're probably gonna lose it anyway. But what's the

2031
01:45:56,800 --> 01:45:58,320
Speaker 1: point of putting it into the one that has the

2032
01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:00,160
Speaker 1: thousand dollars jackpot?

2033
01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:03,200
Speaker 3: Your shot? You only got one shot. Start doing your

2034
01:46:03,240 --> 01:46:05,800
Speaker 3: eminem He's Dan Fira, I'm Mike Harmon coming up next,

2043
01:46:33,560 --> 01:46:36,639

2044
01:46:36,880 --> 01:46:40,559

2045
01:46:40,560 --> 01:46:44,559
Speaker 3: about my team? When do you say I'm done with this?

2046

Speaker 3: The negativity, the pain, the angst twenty minutes. You can

2047
01:46:50,000 --> 01:46:53,960
Speaker 3: chime in at swollen doll. All right, very very specific

2048
01:46:54,000 --> 01:46:54,840
Speaker 3: things to go into it.

2049
01:46:54,960 --> 01:46:59,040
Speaker 1: I turn my notifications off for someone on Thursday, I'll

2050
01:46:59,040 --> 01:46:59,439
Speaker 1: tell you.

2051
01:47:00,200 --> 01:47:03,760
Speaker 3: So we got that now. Obviously there's muting hot take

2052
01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:07,519
Speaker 3: nonsense as well that we all all do in our lives,

2053
01:47:07,560 --> 01:47:11,160
Speaker 3: in real life and certainly in social media. But in

2054
01:47:11,200 --> 01:47:13,639
Speaker 3: an hour, as Isaac alluded to in the update, Isaac

2055
01:47:13,680 --> 01:47:16,240
Speaker 3: Lowancron our guy, we still need to get into that

2056
01:47:16,320 --> 01:47:20,040
Speaker 3: improbable Angel City Portland finish that he got to call

2057
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:23,559
Speaker 3: as you had a goalie score with a back heel

2058
01:47:23,720 --> 01:47:30,160
Speaker 3: kick in the final seconds of stoppage time to create

2059
01:47:30,200 --> 01:47:30,639
Speaker 3: a draw.

2060
01:47:30,800 --> 01:47:33,799
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, a couple of weeks ago we challenged

2061
01:47:33,880 --> 01:47:37,599
Speaker 1: Isaac to drop something in one of those matches. Do

2062
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:38,840
Speaker 1: you remember what that was?

2063
01:47:39,000 --> 01:47:41,519
Speaker 5: Isaac Lohan Kron Yeah, I said get back to me

2064
01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:43,320
Speaker 5: and let me know I'd be glad to do it.

2065
01:47:43,479 --> 01:47:47,599
Speaker 5: And you went on Dylan Brooks on, oh we failed.

2066
01:47:47,640 --> 01:47:49,240
Speaker 1: I thought we did a Seinfeld line.

2067
01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:54,880
Speaker 5: I'm sure. Okay, well there's another game Wednesday. Glad to

2068
01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:57,320
Speaker 5: drop it again. All right, nicely done.

2069
01:47:57,520 --> 01:48:01,400
Speaker 3: Well, so since I've gotten you here and we'll finish

2070
01:48:01,479 --> 01:48:06,479
Speaker 3: this now, look like you guys had snatched a victory

2071
01:48:06,520 --> 01:48:10,000
Speaker 3: from the jaws of defeat, a really big moment. So

2072
01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:13,400
Speaker 3: Sophia Smith big time star and Ilo can fill into

2073
01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:17,360
Speaker 3: particulars didn't start the game, so the watch was and

2074
01:48:17,479 --> 01:48:19,720
Speaker 3: there was no injury designation, so it's like, why is

2075
01:48:19,720 --> 01:48:22,320
Speaker 3: she not playing? Why is she not playing? Finally starts

2076
01:48:22,320 --> 01:48:26,320
Speaker 3: warming up, comes into the game, immediate impact, like whoa,

2077
01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:28,599
Speaker 3: just like that, just like the build, but he built

2078
01:48:28,640 --> 01:48:31,600
Speaker 3: it up beautifully, as if you were getting ready for

2079
01:48:31,640 --> 01:48:33,639
Speaker 3: the third act of a movie. He's like, whoa, there's

2080
01:48:33,680 --> 01:48:36,240
Speaker 3: the twist. Now, how do we resolve this? And then

2081
01:48:36,640 --> 01:48:39,160
Speaker 3: so Angel City comes back, takes a three to two

2082
01:48:39,400 --> 01:48:44,559
Speaker 3: lead and down the stretch a lot of chaos, extra time,

2083
01:48:45,080 --> 01:48:48,200
Speaker 3: and then an injury sets up the most improbable finish.

2084
01:48:48,040 --> 01:48:51,200
Speaker 5: Even though it did not go Angel City's way because

2085
01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:56,320
Speaker 5: of what happened last night. The NWSL was trending on

2086
01:48:56,640 --> 01:49:00,280
Speaker 5: Twitter across the country. It was that improbable. So for

2087
01:49:00,320 --> 01:49:03,920
Speaker 5: the uninitiated, when a half runs out in soccer, the

2088
01:49:03,960 --> 01:49:08,040
Speaker 5: referee keeps the official time. So after forty five minutes,

2089
01:49:08,640 --> 01:49:10,920
Speaker 5: the referee signals, okay, we're gonna have five minutes of

2090
01:49:10,920 --> 01:49:13,880
Speaker 5: stoppage time, seven minutes of stoppage time, whatever. So Angel

2091
01:49:13,920 --> 01:49:16,639
Speaker 5: City has a three to two lead. They're going into

2092
01:49:16,640 --> 01:49:18,920
Speaker 5: the final minute of stoppage time in the second half.

2093
01:49:19,200 --> 01:49:22,200
Speaker 5: Portland the defending league champions. As you said, they have

2094
01:49:22,240 --> 01:49:26,639
Speaker 5: the reigning MVP, Sophia Smith. They had won eleven consecutive matches,

2095
01:49:26,760 --> 01:49:29,280
Speaker 5: or excuse me, they were undefeated in eleven consecutive matches

2096
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:31,840
Speaker 5: dating back to last year. In the final seconds of

2097
01:49:32,080 --> 01:49:35,000
Speaker 5: second half stoppage time, trailing three to two, they have

2098
01:49:35,040 --> 01:49:39,800
Speaker 5: a corner kick and they send their goalie, Bella Bigsby,

2099
01:49:40,040 --> 01:49:42,960
Speaker 5: who is six feet tall, all the way down the

2100
01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:46,160
Speaker 5: field as an extra attacker. It's like pulling the goalie

2101
01:49:46,200 --> 01:49:48,640
Speaker 5: in ice hockey, only the goalie turns out to be

2102
01:49:48,720 --> 01:49:52,280
Speaker 5: your extra attacker. Corner kick comes down. She's six feet tall,

2103
01:49:52,479 --> 01:49:53,360
Speaker 5: she's trying to head it in.

2104
01:49:53,439 --> 01:49:53,880
Speaker 3: She can't.

2105
01:49:53,960 --> 01:49:57,559
Speaker 5: It bounces around, it bounces to her, but her back

2106
01:49:57,640 --> 01:50:01,400
Speaker 5: is to the goal, so she reaches out backwards with

2107
01:50:01,479 --> 01:50:06,400
Speaker 5: her foot and heals it into the goal behind her back,

2108
01:50:06,800 --> 01:50:11,840
Speaker 5: like I guess a mule kicking behind themselves, and it

2109
01:50:11,880 --> 01:50:14,679
Speaker 5: goes into the goal in the final seconds of stoppage time,

2110
01:50:14,720 --> 01:50:17,800
Speaker 5: and social media went insane. It was the second time

2111
01:50:17,840 --> 01:50:20,280
Speaker 5: in the history of the league that a goalie has

2112
01:50:20,320 --> 01:50:23,160
Speaker 5: scored a goal, and the same team, Portland did it

2113
01:50:23,200 --> 01:50:26,479
Speaker 5: in the exact same situation eight years ago in the

2114
01:50:26,520 --> 01:50:29,040
Speaker 5: same stadium. So even though it went against Angel City,

2115
01:50:29,160 --> 01:50:32,840
Speaker 5: the drama and a goalie back healing a ball into

2116
01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:35,880
Speaker 5: the net and scoring a goal was great because it

2117
01:50:35,960 --> 01:50:39,200
Speaker 5: got the league and the game trending across all of

2118
01:50:39,320 --> 01:50:42,439
Speaker 5: sports Twitter and all of United States Twitter last.

2119
01:50:42,280 --> 01:50:44,879
Speaker 3: Night, and you spoke about with the tie. The interesting

2120
01:50:44,920 --> 01:50:47,720
Speaker 3: part also beyond I mean, if that wasn't enough, was

2121
01:50:47,760 --> 01:50:50,040
Speaker 3: that you did have an injury. So you had an

2122
01:50:50,040 --> 01:50:54,240
Speaker 3: injured player standing on the end line, so playing shorthanded,

2123
01:50:54,720 --> 01:50:55,720
Speaker 3: plus the goalie a.

2124
01:50:55,680 --> 01:50:58,320
Speaker 5: Player evaluated for a head injury, and that was a

2125
01:50:58,360 --> 01:51:01,360
Speaker 5: controversy on social media because because Angel City was not

2126
01:51:01,560 --> 01:51:05,000
Speaker 5: allowed to substitute a player in the game, so in effect,

2127
01:51:05,240 --> 01:51:07,960
Speaker 5: they were actually two players down. It was like a

2128
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:12,360
Speaker 5: two man advantage in hockey in that situation. But while

2129
01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:15,840
Speaker 5: all that controversy and going against Angel City is not great,

2130
01:51:17,080 --> 01:51:19,640
Speaker 5: controversy and drama.

2131
01:51:19,320 --> 01:51:23,800
Speaker 3: Is good for a sell. Here's my guy. That's good

2132
01:51:23,840 --> 01:51:25,760
Speaker 3: selling by Isaac Lowencron right there.

2133
01:51:25,880 --> 01:51:29,000
Speaker 1: I also remember what we tasked Isaac with. It was

2134
01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:30,160
Speaker 1: a YadA YadA YadA.

2135
01:51:30,240 --> 01:51:33,040
Speaker 5: Oh really, okay, I'll do YadA YadA YadA on Wednesday.

2136
01:51:33,240 --> 01:51:36,000
Speaker 3: Done, done deal, all right, I really was going to

2137
01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:38,759
Speaker 3: go to the sea is angry that day or something

2138
01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:42,559
Speaker 3: like that. All sorts of random costanzaisms that we can

2139
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:45,559
Speaker 3: pull out as we flow, which might be the fact

2140
01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:47,920
Speaker 3: and might be the attitude of a lot of people

2141
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:50,760
Speaker 3: for the upcoming series that will start in less than

2142
01:51:50,800 --> 01:51:53,679
Speaker 3: an hour from now, as the heat and the Knicks

2143
01:51:54,479 --> 01:51:56,760
Speaker 3: get things started. Now, for me, I'm gonna have to

2144
01:51:56,800 --> 01:52:01,439
Speaker 3: wear it so long as Jalen Brunson and company continued,

2145
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:04,640
Speaker 3: Julius Randall not expected to go. But you know me,

2146
01:52:04,720 --> 01:52:08,280
Speaker 3: I'm a Jimmy Butler guy from way back and watching

2147
01:52:08,360 --> 01:52:11,839
Speaker 3: what he did celebrating his twenty dollars cups of coffee

2148
01:52:11,880 --> 01:52:14,519
Speaker 3: in the bubble, all of those things. I had the

2149
01:52:14,560 --> 01:52:16,640
Speaker 3: heat that I picked them, saying, if they can make

2150
01:52:16,640 --> 01:52:19,160
Speaker 3: a run now, Tyler Hero getting hurt, I thought I

2151
01:52:19,200 --> 01:52:22,240
Speaker 3: was gonna get torpedoed. We talk a lot about that

2152
01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:24,800
Speaker 3: series against the Bucks, Giannis's injury, and then we come

2153
01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:28,840
Speaker 3: to find out Mike Budenholzer's brother had been killed in

2154
01:52:28,880 --> 01:52:29,479
Speaker 3: an accident.

2155
01:52:29,600 --> 01:52:36,479
Speaker 1: So like lots of yeah after Game four, Yeah, just

2156
01:52:36,840 --> 01:52:41,680
Speaker 1: awful scenario. And Budenholzer caught a lot of heat for

2157
01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:47,040
Speaker 1: what happened coaching wise, condolences to him and you know,

2158
01:52:47,040 --> 01:52:51,000
Speaker 1: their entire family, But it was I mean, you blow

2159
01:52:51,080 --> 01:52:53,920
Speaker 1: Game four and then the way that you blow Game

2160
01:52:54,000 --> 01:53:01,040
Speaker 1: five just it's I don't I A change has to

2161
01:53:01,080 --> 01:53:03,599
Speaker 1: be made, and that's all I'll say. And I'll also

2162
01:53:03,640 --> 01:53:06,599
Speaker 1: say this, I don't know how much Knicks Bucks would

2163
01:53:06,960 --> 01:53:13,000
Speaker 1: grab the attention the spotlight away from the other playoff series.

2164
01:53:14,240 --> 01:53:16,880
Speaker 1: But you're gonna hear a lot of you know, the

2165
01:53:16,960 --> 01:53:19,519
Speaker 1: New York market, And I hate that sort of talk

2166
01:53:19,560 --> 01:53:21,679
Speaker 1: in sports talk radio because I don't think people care.

2167
01:53:22,280 --> 01:53:24,920
Speaker 1: I don't think people care what the ratings are gonna be. Yeah,

2168
01:53:24,920 --> 01:53:26,720
Speaker 1: they're gonna go crazy in New York City because the

2169
01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:30,240
Speaker 1: Knicks are in it. But this is of the four

2170
01:53:30,439 --> 01:53:33,600
Speaker 1: playoff series and we don't whoever the Lakers play is

2171
01:53:33,600 --> 01:53:36,760
Speaker 1: going to still be intriguing. Of the four playoff series

2172
01:53:36,800 --> 01:53:39,800
Speaker 1: that remain in the NBA playoffs, Heat Knicks to me,

2173
01:53:40,280 --> 01:53:44,760
Speaker 1: is is so unappealing compared to the other three, Like,

2174
01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:48,880
Speaker 1: it's not even close, and it's not from it's not

2175
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:52,960
Speaker 1: the back in the day Heat Nicks. And maybe at

2176
01:53:53,000 --> 01:53:54,560
Speaker 1: some point it will get to that point for the

2177
01:53:54,600 --> 01:53:58,840
Speaker 1: Knicks MIC, but I have I have little interest in

2178
01:53:58,920 --> 01:54:00,720
Speaker 1: watching how that series plays out.

2179
01:54:01,120 --> 01:54:04,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, we watched Phoenix and Denver game one yesterday. Jamal

2180
01:54:04,560 --> 01:54:08,439
Speaker 3: Murray looks like he's that guy when the spotlights come up.

2181
01:54:08,600 --> 01:54:11,640
Speaker 3: Even Nikola Jokic say we're following him. Sure, he's a

2182
01:54:11,680 --> 01:54:16,000
Speaker 3: two time MVP, maybe gonna win his third straight. And

2183
01:54:16,080 --> 01:54:18,479
Speaker 3: he's saying we're following him because that's how well he

2184
01:54:18,640 --> 01:54:22,040
Speaker 3: plays in the playoffs. We've seen numerous lists, as we

2185
01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:24,559
Speaker 3: like to do from stat Muse and whatever else, of

2186
01:54:24,800 --> 01:54:27,360
Speaker 3: he's got more games of this caliber than this guy,

2187
01:54:27,400 --> 01:54:31,560
Speaker 3: this guy and they're all legendary all time players, just

2188
01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:33,720
Speaker 3: kind of talking about what he's been in this moment,

2189
01:54:34,080 --> 01:54:36,680
Speaker 3: and you forget how good he was because he was

2190
01:54:36,760 --> 01:54:40,080
Speaker 3: hurt for so long. So coming into the playoffs for Denver,

2191
01:54:40,160 --> 01:54:43,040
Speaker 3: it was a we don't know, we haven't seen these

2192
01:54:43,080 --> 01:54:46,120
Speaker 3: three and at Michael Porter Junior, who wasn't as big

2193
01:54:46,160 --> 01:54:48,600
Speaker 3: as a factor in Game one, but all of a

2194
01:54:48,640 --> 01:54:50,840
Speaker 3: sudden you're like, all right, you've got Jamal Murray and

2195
01:54:50,880 --> 01:54:52,920
Speaker 3: we know what you can pencil in what Jokic is

2196
01:54:52,920 --> 01:54:53,960
Speaker 3: gonna do on a given night.

2197
01:54:54,120 --> 01:54:57,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, there there's a lot of I think that when

2198
01:54:57,840 --> 01:55:00,600
Speaker 1: you looked at where the Nuggets were that they had

2199
01:55:00,640 --> 01:55:02,680
Speaker 1: Jamal Murray. But to your point, you didn't know that

2200
01:55:02,720 --> 01:55:06,879
Speaker 1: it would be that Jamal Murray that you know, fifty

2201
01:55:06,920 --> 01:55:09,880
Speaker 1: point Jamal Murray in the bubble, that sort of guy.

2202
01:55:10,280 --> 01:55:12,640
Speaker 1: And if you knew that, I think that there would

2203
01:55:12,640 --> 01:55:16,440
Speaker 1: be a lot more talk on Denver. I don't know

2204
01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:20,160
Speaker 1: how in this series, like in heading into it, you

2205
01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:24,760
Speaker 1: could pick anybody but Denver. I know Phoenix has their

2206
01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:30,040
Speaker 1: big three, but when you look at what happened with

2207
01:55:30,080 --> 01:55:34,760
Speaker 1: DeAndre Ayton on Saturday night, that's not a good sign.

2208
01:55:34,920 --> 01:55:36,680
Speaker 3: Well let's talk about that for a second, because I

2209
01:55:36,720 --> 01:55:40,320
Speaker 3: had that in the notes of get absolutely killed on

2210
01:55:40,360 --> 01:55:43,000
Speaker 3: social media, and there's plenty of memes where there's just

2211
01:55:43,120 --> 01:55:46,080
Speaker 3: no effort defensively. This guy's supposed to be a rim protector.

2212
01:55:46,080 --> 01:55:48,320
Speaker 3: This can must be your big man down low, and

2213
01:55:48,360 --> 01:55:54,120
Speaker 3: he's loafing getting back into a play. Rebounding was timid

2214
01:55:55,320 --> 01:55:56,560
Speaker 3: and really a non factor.

2215
01:55:56,880 --> 01:56:00,400
Speaker 1: You can't. You can't be a team in the NBA

2216
01:56:00,480 --> 01:56:02,040
Speaker 1: playoffs with just three guys.

2217
01:56:02,960 --> 01:56:03,440
Speaker 3: You can't.

2218
01:56:03,640 --> 01:56:06,840
Speaker 1: It's just it's and And when the Suns made the

2219
01:56:06,920 --> 01:56:10,560
Speaker 1: Durant trade, I don't blame them for making the Durant trade.

2220
01:56:11,040 --> 01:56:13,720
Speaker 1: I think that the Durant trade was the reason why

2221
01:56:13,760 --> 01:56:16,640
Speaker 1: I don't blame the Mavericks for making the Kyrie trade. Now,

2222
01:56:16,680 --> 01:56:18,320
Speaker 1: the Suns gave up a heck of a lot more

2223
01:56:18,320 --> 01:56:22,320
Speaker 1: for Durant than the Mavericks gave up for Kyrie Irving.

2224
01:56:22,400 --> 01:56:26,480
Speaker 1: But when you look at how the Sons are constructed,

2225
01:56:27,080 --> 01:56:30,200
Speaker 1: you know, guys got minutes last night, but they're not

2226
01:56:30,440 --> 01:56:33,879
Speaker 1: legit minutes. And there's I just I don't know how

2227
01:56:34,280 --> 01:56:37,520
Speaker 1: you could take that big three, two of them, whence

2228
01:56:37,520 --> 01:56:41,000
Speaker 1: you are aging big threes and prone to injury, and

2229
01:56:41,120 --> 01:56:44,800
Speaker 1: think that they could beat this nuggetsy not just one game.

2230
01:56:44,840 --> 01:56:48,760
Speaker 1: I'm not taking a victory lap, but you know, Denver's

2231
01:56:48,800 --> 01:56:52,200
Speaker 1: got guys they like they and and if it isn't

2232
01:56:52,520 --> 01:56:55,800
Speaker 1: Jamal Murray, then you still have Jokich, your two time MVP,

2233
01:56:56,240 --> 01:56:59,120
Speaker 1: who knows maybe three time MVP, and you have other

2234
01:56:59,160 --> 01:57:00,720
Speaker 1: players to help complement that.

2235
01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:04,000
Speaker 3: The Sun's Jordan with three yeah as well, right.

2236
01:57:03,960 --> 01:57:05,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know if you're gonna get that

2237
01:57:05,840 --> 01:57:08,480
Speaker 1: every single night, but there you got it last night.

2238
01:57:09,040 --> 01:57:12,480
Speaker 1: So I just the Suns are just so thin, not

2239
01:57:12,520 --> 01:57:15,160
Speaker 1: only just on their bench, but also just literally of

2240
01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:17,200
Speaker 1: who's on the court. And I'm not talking about Kevin

2241
01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:20,520
Speaker 1: Durant's wait of what you can, what you can, what

2242
01:57:20,560 --> 01:57:23,320
Speaker 1: you can provide and so so even that series of

2243
01:57:23,360 --> 01:57:26,280
Speaker 1: seeing like how far the Sons can even test Denver, though,

2244
01:57:26,400 --> 01:57:29,360
Speaker 1: is more intriguing to me. I don't think it's gonna

2245
01:57:29,400 --> 01:57:31,800
Speaker 1: be a you know, a seventy five sixty eight final

2246
01:57:31,880 --> 01:57:34,760
Speaker 1: between Nix and Heat. But and I may be bitter

2247
01:57:34,840 --> 01:57:39,680
Speaker 1: because Miami beat the Bucks, but I just without Tyler Hero,

2248
01:57:41,040 --> 01:57:43,440
Speaker 1: you know, the Garden atmosphere will be neat. But I'm

2249
01:57:43,480 --> 01:57:46,680
Speaker 1: sorry if Joellenbian comes back six or Celtics is intriguing.

2250
01:57:47,640 --> 01:57:50,000
Speaker 1: We talked about Nuggets Suns and why that can be intriguing,

2251
01:57:50,040 --> 01:57:52,280
Speaker 1: and the Lakers and whoever they play are gonna be

2252
01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:54,360
Speaker 1: it's gonna be the marquee series of the semi finals.

2253
01:57:54,440 --> 01:57:57,560
Speaker 1: So it's a distant fourth for me, even though you'll

2254
01:57:57,600 --> 01:58:00,400
Speaker 1: hear people be like, oh, the NBA loves this, Yeah,

2255
01:58:00,440 --> 01:58:02,080
Speaker 1: of course they do. You know who doesn't love it?

2256
01:58:02,120 --> 01:58:04,480
Speaker 1: The rest of America? They don't.

2257
01:58:04,680 --> 01:58:09,480
Speaker 3: Who cares insufferable? Nick's talk starting down in three two.

2258
01:58:09,600 --> 01:58:12,320
Speaker 3: All right, that's in another hour or more. Now, I'm

2259
01:58:12,360 --> 01:58:14,120
Speaker 3: not saying Steve Hartman is going to take you down

2260
01:58:14,120 --> 01:58:17,520
Speaker 3: that bad path. I'm just talking nationally in general, because

2261
01:58:17,560 --> 01:58:20,280
Speaker 3: we're an hour away from tip off Philly Boston. The

2262
01:58:20,320 --> 01:58:23,920
Speaker 3: intriguing part you mentioned Joel Embiid when he got a

2263
01:58:24,000 --> 01:58:28,680
Speaker 3: hurt didn't seem fairly innocuous, seemed like a minor thing,

2264
01:58:29,480 --> 01:58:33,080
Speaker 3: potential for a suspension with that high leg kick that

2265
01:58:33,120 --> 01:58:37,640
Speaker 3: didn't come down. But then they finished the first round sweep,

2266
01:58:38,480 --> 01:58:40,520
Speaker 3: and now we find out and we don't know when

2267
01:58:40,560 --> 01:58:43,000
Speaker 3: we're going to see him. Doc Rivers in his media

2268
01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:47,200
Speaker 3: availability on Saturday, he's like, well, he's already doubtful for Monday. Okay.

2269
01:58:47,240 --> 01:58:50,760
Speaker 3: That's not a good sign in short or long term

2270
01:58:50,800 --> 01:58:54,920
Speaker 3: here for their playoff aspirations, given what he's meant to

2271
01:58:54,960 --> 01:58:57,960
Speaker 3: this squad, and it feeds narratives. We were talking about

2272
01:58:58,040 --> 01:59:01,200
Speaker 3: narratives from the NFL side of things, histories and whatever,

2273
01:59:01,560 --> 01:59:04,480
Speaker 3: and you get excited about these sixers because you actually thought,

2274
01:59:04,680 --> 01:59:07,120
Speaker 3: all right, it's coalescing. But you always have to have

2275
01:59:07,160 --> 01:59:10,000
Speaker 3: that dot dot And I'm tired of having to do

2276
01:59:10,040 --> 01:59:13,160
Speaker 3: that with so many NBA players and teams anymore. Boy,

2277
01:59:13,200 --> 01:59:15,040
Speaker 3: I really like to look at these guys, but it's

2278
01:59:15,080 --> 01:59:17,160
Speaker 3: April first. You got to get through mid June.

2279
01:59:17,200 --> 01:59:20,360
Speaker 1: I also think like that injuries and how they play

2280
01:59:20,400 --> 01:59:23,760
Speaker 1: out in team's paths. You can't like a like a

2281
01:59:23,800 --> 01:59:27,879
Speaker 1: first round injury, and there were a bunch, yeah, I Gannis,

2282
01:59:28,000 --> 01:59:32,080
Speaker 1: you mentioned embiid. It really doesn't doesn't have its effect

2283
01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:38,760
Speaker 1: until I think now, conference semifinals, conference finals, obviously NBA finals.

2284
01:59:39,080 --> 01:59:40,280
Speaker 1: There are a lot of teams that have dealt with

2285
01:59:40,320 --> 01:59:42,840
Speaker 1: injuries in the first round, but it's when when you

2286
01:59:42,880 --> 01:59:45,320
Speaker 1: get down to this the final eight, in this final four,

2287
01:59:45,880 --> 01:59:48,720
Speaker 1: that's when it really plays out in the absences of stars.

2288
01:59:48,760 --> 01:59:52,920
Speaker 1: I don't think right now, despite the numerous injuries that

2289
01:59:52,960 --> 01:59:56,160
Speaker 1: we had in the first round, I don't think this

2290
01:59:56,280 --> 01:59:58,400
Speaker 1: is going to be known as the playoffs where everyone

2291
01:59:58,520 --> 02:00:00,720
Speaker 1: was injured. Now, if these happened late on, if now

2292
02:00:00,720 --> 02:00:04,720
Speaker 1: you're doing names and put it out in the atmosphere,

2293
02:00:04,720 --> 02:00:08,000
Speaker 1: but if big stars are getting hurt moving on, then

2294
02:00:08,120 --> 02:00:11,080
Speaker 1: I think it becomes like a conversation of all right,

2295
02:00:11,480 --> 02:00:14,480
Speaker 1: this is a championship tainted because of this team's path.

2296
02:00:14,960 --> 02:00:17,760
Speaker 1: One round does not taint it as of right now.

2297
02:00:17,680 --> 02:00:20,160
Speaker 3: He's Dan Bayer, I, Mike Carmen. This is Fox Sports Sunday,

02:00:41,040 --> 02:00:44,160
Speaker 3: of friends or colleagues at the places where you work.

2306
02:00:44,520 --> 02:00:46,080
Speaker 3: But what do you do it with your team that

2307
02:00:46,120 --> 02:00:49,400
Speaker 3: you've loved and lived and died with season after season?

2308
02:00:49,920 --> 02:00:54,280
Speaker 3: When is enough enough for your mental health and decluttering

2309
02:00:54,720 --> 02:00:56,640

Speaker 3: hour till the NBA tips off, We've got the baseball

2314
02:01:12,600 --> 02:01:17,120
Speaker 3: slate is full repeat with games including another in Mexico.

2315
02:01:17,160 --> 02:01:19,400
Speaker 3: We'll see if they can match the ten home runs.

2316
02:01:19,480 --> 02:01:22,600
Speaker 1: My goodness, level the right.

2317
02:01:23,040 --> 02:01:25,280
Speaker 3: Let's get a team there. And then they had a

2318
02:01:25,280 --> 02:01:29,240
Speaker 3: postgame celebration where they were bashing a buzz light your pinata.

2319
02:01:30,280 --> 02:01:31,880
Speaker 3: Did you have one of those for your son's birthday

2320
02:01:31,920 --> 02:01:33,840
Speaker 3: party that you got to help them with? Here's a

2321
02:01:33,840 --> 02:01:36,600
Speaker 3: big stick. No, let's teach you about to hit stuff.

2322
02:01:36,800 --> 02:01:39,520
Speaker 1: This was This was jungle Uh. I guess it was

2323
02:01:39,640 --> 02:01:43,480
Speaker 1: jungle dinosaur sort of theme sort of thing. Nice, you know,

2324
02:01:43,760 --> 02:01:44,680
Speaker 1: but did.

2325
02:01:44,560 --> 02:01:47,400
Speaker 3: You replicate the dinosaur that spits venom and Newman's face

2326
02:01:47,440 --> 02:01:48,160
Speaker 3: and takes him out?

2327
02:01:48,240 --> 02:01:52,600
Speaker 1: Oh? No, this was it was It was jungle elephants, girafts,

2328
02:01:52,640 --> 02:01:56,240
Speaker 1: that sort of thing. There was a lion king cake, nice,

2329
02:01:56,760 --> 02:01:58,320
Speaker 1: but we were kind of pigeonholed into.

2330
02:01:58,360 --> 02:02:00,520
Speaker 3: That was scar atop the heap. Did you take that

2331
02:02:00,560 --> 02:02:01,960
Speaker 3: part of the film?

2332
02:02:02,160 --> 02:02:04,600
Speaker 1: No, I haven't even seen The Lion King, so you

2333
02:02:04,640 --> 02:02:08,360
Speaker 1: have no idea. My wife watched it with our son,

2334
02:02:08,400 --> 02:02:10,920
Speaker 1: who I don't think really had an idea on Now.

2335
02:02:10,920 --> 02:02:13,000
Speaker 3: There's a lot of big themes in there, a lot

2336
02:02:13,040 --> 02:02:14,640
Speaker 3: of Shakespearean stuff going on.

2337
02:02:15,120 --> 02:02:17,480
Speaker 1: It was a lot, yeah, but that is good times,

2338
02:02:17,520 --> 02:02:18,440
Speaker 1: good times had by all.

2339
02:02:18,480 --> 02:02:20,880
Speaker 3: There you go, well, happy birthday, Happy birthday mom.

2340
02:02:21,080 --> 02:02:23,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mom's birthday tomorrow. So done.

2341
02:02:23,960 --> 02:02:26,480
Speaker 3: We're here in Live in the tirerac dot Com, Fox

2342
02:02:26,480 --> 02:02:29,560
Speaker 3: Sports Radio Studios. That was me filibustering to not want

2343
02:02:29,560 --> 02:02:31,640
Speaker 3: to talk about this next topic. But I have to

2344
02:02:31,640 --> 02:02:35,160
Speaker 3: do because we all have these moments in our lives,

2345
02:02:35,200 --> 02:02:40,880
Speaker 3: at work and our personal relationships where there is things

2346
02:02:40,920 --> 02:02:46,240
Speaker 3: can become too much. Right, the oversharing friend, the friend

2347
02:02:46,280 --> 02:02:51,080
Speaker 3: that just texts you repeatedly about anything. And I'm not

2348
02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:53,480
Speaker 3: talking about you scrolling their Instagram and them showing you

2349
02:02:53,520 --> 02:02:55,920
Speaker 3: all the stuff they ate and whatever. No, just text

2350
02:02:56,160 --> 02:02:58,440
Speaker 3: that just keep coming to where you got to mute it.

2351
02:02:59,160 --> 02:03:01,560
Speaker 3: You've got to pause. If they're on social media, maybe

2352
02:03:01,560 --> 02:03:05,200
Speaker 3: you have to mute them, unfollow whatever whatever you do

2353
02:03:05,320 --> 02:03:08,240
Speaker 3: to keep some peace. But you need to keep your

2354
02:03:08,600 --> 02:03:10,640
Speaker 3: your frame of mind. For me, it's come to that

2355
02:03:10,680 --> 02:03:14,200
Speaker 3: point with my teams, particularly Chicago White Sox now much

2356
02:03:14,200 --> 02:03:18,320
Speaker 3: made yesterday Luise Robert a little groundball that he didn't

2357
02:03:18,360 --> 02:03:22,600
Speaker 3: get out of the box. Uh and killed on social

2358
02:03:22,680 --> 02:03:26,680
Speaker 3: media as you should be uh and all the way through,

2359
02:03:26,720 --> 02:03:31,320
Speaker 3: and then later talked about how he had a hamstring

2360
02:03:31,600 --> 02:03:34,480
Speaker 3: tightness and aggravation that he didn't bother to tell anybody

2361
02:03:34,520 --> 02:03:38,280
Speaker 3: about when asked in his postgame presser after he'd been

2362
02:03:38,320 --> 02:03:42,080
Speaker 3: pulled from the game. Didn't even know the bench coach's

2363
02:03:42,160 --> 02:03:43,839
Speaker 3: name or any of the guys that he was supposed

2364
02:03:43,840 --> 02:03:46,120
Speaker 3: to talk to. So a bad thing. But for me,

2365
02:03:46,160 --> 02:03:50,760
Speaker 3: it's been update after update of just getting bludgeoned on

2366
02:03:50,800 --> 02:03:55,480
Speaker 3: a nightly basis. Even yesterday, no hitter man good, never

2367
02:03:55,640 --> 02:03:59,760
Speaker 3: was a good Yes, no nice quart tent. All right,

2368
02:04:00,120 --> 02:04:04,920
Speaker 3: there we are again. You got injuries, You've got underperforming players.

2369
02:04:05,280 --> 02:04:07,760
Speaker 3: You're now on the short list of three teams that

2370
02:04:07,800 --> 02:04:10,680
Speaker 3: have never given out one hundred million dollar plus contract

2371
02:04:10,800 --> 02:04:13,640
Speaker 3: because even the Pirates have done that. Even the Pirates

2372
02:04:13,960 --> 02:04:17,400
Speaker 3: have done that in Major League Baseball. But and yesterday

2373
02:04:17,440 --> 02:04:21,160
Speaker 3: you had chance of sell the team repeatedly being captured

2374
02:04:21,440 --> 02:04:23,840
Speaker 3: on social media. But I'm to the point, after one

2375
02:04:23,920 --> 02:04:26,440
Speaker 3: month in I need a break. I need to take

2376
02:04:26,440 --> 02:04:28,720
Speaker 3: a time out. We talked about it earlier. You know,

2377
02:04:28,760 --> 02:04:30,720
Speaker 3: go see other people. I'm not gonna go see other people.

2378
02:04:30,960 --> 02:04:34,880
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna do any of that. I'm just pausing now.

2379
02:04:34,920 --> 02:04:37,240
Speaker 3: Will I pay attention to wins and losses, Sure, but

2380
02:04:37,280 --> 02:04:40,640
Speaker 3: I'm not taking that information in the moment because digesting

2381
02:04:40,680 --> 02:04:43,800
Speaker 3: it minute to minute and watching the chaos that's ensued

2382
02:04:44,080 --> 02:04:46,960
Speaker 3: as MLB sends me my notifications of hey, they just

2383
02:04:47,000 --> 02:04:49,080
Speaker 3: gave up another four run. I can't do it.

2384
02:04:49,360 --> 02:04:53,320
Speaker 1: There's levels to MLB bad, right, There's there's different levels.

2385
02:04:53,360 --> 02:04:55,120
Speaker 1: There's there's A's bad.

2386
02:04:55,520 --> 02:04:58,360
Speaker 3: Oh, you're gonna do the Billy Billy Bean Brad Pitt.

2387
02:04:58,400 --> 02:05:02,040
Speaker 3: There's the Yankees, and then there's a bunch of teams.

2388
02:05:02,680 --> 02:05:08,480
Speaker 1: There's there's there's A's bad, there's Nationals bad, and then

2389
02:05:08,520 --> 02:05:12,400
Speaker 1: there's Royals bad. And like that's that's kind of like

2390
02:05:12,440 --> 02:05:14,840
Speaker 1: how I felt entering the season. Well, the Nationals, guess what,

2391
02:05:15,360 --> 02:05:17,480
Speaker 1: playing a little bit better baseball, But you shouldn't be

2392
02:05:17,480 --> 02:05:20,160
Speaker 1: commended for having a winning percentage of you know, three

2393
02:05:20,240 --> 02:05:25,000
Speaker 1: forty five or three forty six. The White Sox now

2394
02:05:25,240 --> 02:05:28,560
Speaker 1: tied for tied for fourth, but let's be real, they're

2395
02:05:28,560 --> 02:05:30,800
Speaker 1: tied for last. Yeah, it's the same thing with the

2396
02:05:30,880 --> 02:05:34,360
Speaker 1: Kansas City Royals. That is appalling. Roys were one of

2397
02:05:34,400 --> 02:05:36,840
Speaker 1: the other three teams right that didn't have one hundred

2398
02:05:36,880 --> 02:05:39,680
Speaker 1: million dollar contract than the A's and the White Sox.

2399
02:05:40,320 --> 02:05:44,040
Speaker 1: Something with that. I think it's I think it's awful

2400
02:05:45,040 --> 02:05:50,520
Speaker 1: that it's April thirtieth and you have teams with seven wins,

2401
02:05:51,240 --> 02:05:54,560
Speaker 1: and it'd be in your case where you have someone

2402
02:05:54,640 --> 02:05:58,280
Speaker 1: like Dylan c who is I mean, you know, it'd

2403
02:05:58,680 --> 02:06:01,280
Speaker 1: be a top line start on any team in the

2404
02:06:01,280 --> 02:06:06,360
Speaker 1: big leagues, and then you have everything else what a waste.

2405
02:06:06,680 --> 02:06:08,480
Speaker 3: Well, and they went and paid a bunch of the

2406
02:06:08,520 --> 02:06:11,240
Speaker 3: young players before they had to, which sometimes a good

2407
02:06:11,240 --> 02:06:13,840
Speaker 3: thing in baseball. We've seen it. Certainly the Braves have

2408
02:06:13,960 --> 02:06:16,120
Speaker 3: signed a number of players who worked a lot of

2409
02:06:16,120 --> 02:06:19,440
Speaker 3: the guys they signed in Chicago. All they've done is

2410
02:06:19,480 --> 02:06:24,040
Speaker 3: be hurt after signing those deals, where what seemed to

2411
02:06:24,040 --> 02:06:28,480
Speaker 3: be minor injuries become long standing problems, taking them out

2412
02:06:28,480 --> 02:06:29,440
Speaker 3: of the lineup repeatedly.

2413
02:06:29,480 --> 02:06:33,040
Speaker 1: When you're entering the season as a White Sox fan

2414
02:06:33,840 --> 02:06:38,360
Speaker 1: and my Brewer phantom isn't I'm whatever the least team

2415
02:06:38,360 --> 02:06:41,680
Speaker 1: that I that's my favorite radar, but I hear the

2416
02:06:41,760 --> 02:06:44,640
Speaker 1: least about it, So I'm not sitting there being like,

2417
02:06:44,680 --> 02:06:46,080
Speaker 1: all right, I think this is this is the brew

2418
02:06:46,120 --> 02:06:49,360
Speaker 1: Cruise year. But when you're looking at this season for

2419
02:06:49,440 --> 02:06:52,760
Speaker 1: the White Sox, what are your expectations.

2420
02:06:52,400 --> 02:06:55,040
Speaker 3: Well, the hope coming in and hope being a dangerous word,

2421
02:06:55,080 --> 02:06:57,040
Speaker 3: as we always talk about and Shawshank had had two

2422
02:06:57,080 --> 02:07:00,200
Speaker 3: meetings the best of things, and you know, prom us

2423
02:07:00,200 --> 02:07:02,840
Speaker 3: of a better tomorrow and hopefully what we all wake

2424
02:07:02,960 --> 02:07:06,600
Speaker 3: up with each morning that we're blessed to go have

2425
02:07:06,640 --> 02:07:08,720
Speaker 3: a shot to be better than we were the day before.

2426
02:07:09,480 --> 02:07:11,440
Speaker 3: And then hope is also a dangerous thing because you

2427
02:07:11,440 --> 02:07:14,640
Speaker 3: can be disappointed. Sure, And for the White Sox, given

2428
02:07:14,680 --> 02:07:17,160
Speaker 3: the two wild cards, the hope was that you'd be

2429
02:07:17,240 --> 02:07:20,720
Speaker 3: vying that come to trade deadlines, you're at least within

2430
02:07:20,880 --> 02:07:23,520
Speaker 3: shouting range to where you could say, all right, we

2431
02:07:23,600 --> 02:07:28,120
Speaker 3: can make a move to maybe solidify that slot. Versus

2432
02:07:28,200 --> 02:07:30,600
Speaker 3: it's the end of April and now you have to

2433
02:07:30,640 --> 02:07:33,600
Speaker 3: play at a ridiculous clip to try to get yourself

2434
02:07:33,640 --> 02:07:37,880
Speaker 3: back into contention, right, because I mean, take it from

2435
02:07:37,880 --> 02:07:42,560
Speaker 3: a personal statistical standpoint, right, We'll watch the Padres series right,

2436
02:07:42,680 --> 02:07:45,200
Speaker 3: and this thing in Mexico and it's all great. Wan

2437
02:07:45,280 --> 02:07:48,480
Speaker 3: Sota struggled and he's been awful for a month. He

2438
02:07:48,560 --> 02:07:51,440
Speaker 3: was awful the last year, and it's like, even if

2439
02:07:51,440 --> 02:07:54,680
Speaker 3: he has a killer rest of the season, I mean,

2440
02:07:54,720 --> 02:07:57,400
Speaker 3: you're you're starting from such a low point that you're

2441
02:07:57,400 --> 02:07:59,320
Speaker 3: going to get to mediocrity when it comes to a

2442
02:07:59,320 --> 02:08:01,800
Speaker 3: batting average, hit some home runs, might have some big

2443
02:08:01,800 --> 02:08:03,960
Speaker 3: at bats before it's all said none, Dodgers aren't running

2444
02:08:03,960 --> 02:08:06,520
Speaker 3: away and hiding. Nobody in the NL West's going to

2445
02:08:07,120 --> 02:08:10,240
Speaker 3: but the idea being that it's still probably going to

2446
02:08:10,280 --> 02:08:13,480
Speaker 3: be a disappointment. Maybe you tie it to the honest thing. Yeah,

2447
02:08:13,480 --> 02:08:15,280
Speaker 3: you could pick out some points that were pretty good,

2448
02:08:15,720 --> 02:08:18,040
Speaker 3: but overall it was not the season you expected for

2449
02:08:18,080 --> 02:08:21,160
Speaker 3: the White Sox after a month, I have no idea.

2450
02:08:21,640 --> 02:08:24,320
Speaker 3: I mean, how many rosaries I can say to where

2451
02:08:24,360 --> 02:08:26,480
Speaker 3: suddenly things start going right in their world.

2452
02:08:26,600 --> 02:08:30,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's not going to turn around. And that's

2453
02:08:30,200 --> 02:08:32,560
Speaker 1: like they got to be. The most disheartening thing is

2454
02:08:33,200 --> 02:08:36,520
Speaker 1: a month ago, when it's opening day, you at least

2455
02:08:36,600 --> 02:08:38,480
Speaker 1: have an idea or a thought of you know what

2456
02:08:38,600 --> 02:08:40,960
Speaker 1: this could you know, maybe we could do something, Maybe

2457
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:43,120
Speaker 1: we can get some momentum, not that you're going to

2458
02:08:43,160 --> 02:08:45,560
Speaker 1: start the year thirteen and oh like the Rays did, right,

2459
02:08:45,640 --> 02:08:48,040
Speaker 1: but that hey, maybe you jump out and you know,

2460
02:08:48,080 --> 02:08:49,080
Speaker 1: you go eight and three.

2461
02:08:49,320 --> 02:08:51,160
Speaker 3: But if this guy could do what he did in

2462
02:08:51,240 --> 02:08:54,840
Speaker 3: twenty twenty and we get the September this guy had

2463
02:08:55,160 --> 02:08:57,560
Speaker 3: and cobble it together to where all right, this lineup

2464
02:08:57,600 --> 02:08:59,800
Speaker 3: that had a lot of promise, a lot of headlines,

2465
02:09:00,040 --> 02:09:04,000
Speaker 3: lot of anticipation, actually plays together and plays up tech Well.

2466
02:09:04,000 --> 02:09:07,800
Speaker 3: Tim Anderson got hurt on a on a rundown play

2467
02:09:07,840 --> 02:09:10,840
Speaker 3: where he got hitting the knee because he can't get

2468
02:09:10,840 --> 02:09:12,960
Speaker 3: his leg out of the way and the ball wasn't coming,

2469
02:09:13,520 --> 02:09:15,840
Speaker 3: but he still gets plowed into and he misses a month.

2470
02:09:16,520 --> 02:09:18,640
Speaker 3: All right, So you're at the point where you're like,

2471
02:09:18,640 --> 02:09:20,280
Speaker 3: all right, when he comes back, do you just go

2472
02:09:20,360 --> 02:09:23,320
Speaker 3: and put him on the trade market. Here his medicals

2473
02:09:23,440 --> 02:09:23,920
Speaker 3: check out.

2474
02:09:24,240 --> 02:09:28,200
Speaker 1: It's funny in the NFL because we've joked about the

2475
02:09:28,200 --> 02:09:31,120
Speaker 1: playoff picture that they'll show in week seven. Yeah, and

2476
02:09:31,160 --> 02:09:34,440
Speaker 1: you'll have sixteen teams in a conference. They'll be the

2477
02:09:34,440 --> 02:09:36,880
Speaker 1: division leaders, the wild cards, and then there's nine teams

2478
02:09:36,880 --> 02:09:39,560
Speaker 1: in the hunt and you're like, well, that's the entire conference.

2479
02:09:40,600 --> 02:09:44,919
Speaker 1: You left off one team there. You left off the Texans.

2480
02:09:44,920 --> 02:09:46,840
Speaker 1: That's the only team up here. There was a point

2481
02:09:47,400 --> 02:09:49,480
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago when the Seahawks were left off.

2482
02:09:49,480 --> 02:09:50,920
Speaker 1: They were one of the two teams that were not

2483
02:09:51,000 --> 02:09:53,080
Speaker 1: put on the end the hunt that I was very disappointed.

2484
02:09:53,080 --> 02:09:56,680
Speaker 1: It wasn't last year they made the playoffs, but that like,

2485
02:09:56,720 --> 02:10:00,480
Speaker 1: there's there's hope in the NFL season, even now with

2486
02:10:00,520 --> 02:10:03,360
Speaker 1: the expanded playoff. If your season gets off to a

2487
02:10:03,440 --> 02:10:06,040
Speaker 1: slow start, if you're owing four, you likely have an

2488
02:10:06,080 --> 02:10:08,360
Speaker 1: idea that your team isn't too great. But again it's

2489
02:10:08,880 --> 02:10:11,280
Speaker 1: you know, how many sundays of this do you get?

2490
02:10:11,320 --> 02:10:14,120
Speaker 1: Can you enjoy? You're not going to abandon yourself after

2491
02:10:14,160 --> 02:10:18,880
Speaker 1: the first month this will you can abandon this because

2492
02:10:18,880 --> 02:10:21,880
Speaker 1: this is why? Why should you waste any more time?

2493
02:10:22,440 --> 02:10:26,360
Speaker 1: Why for an organization if they don't care, aren't making

2494
02:10:26,400 --> 02:10:29,920
Speaker 1: smart decisions. It's you know the A's and then moving

2495
02:10:29,960 --> 02:10:32,560
Speaker 1: to Las Vegas is such a you know, the A's

2496
02:10:32,640 --> 02:10:35,320
Speaker 1: fans support of that team up there, but it's obviously

2497
02:10:35,360 --> 02:10:39,520
Speaker 1: what ownership did to the team, and using the misdirection

2498
02:10:39,600 --> 02:10:41,720
Speaker 1: as such a not word, but trying to make it

2499
02:10:41,760 --> 02:10:44,080
Speaker 1: seem like that was the problem whether they didn't invest

2500
02:10:44,120 --> 02:10:47,680
Speaker 1: in anybody or traded everybody away, it didn't give people

2501
02:10:47,760 --> 02:10:51,800
Speaker 1: reason to come to a ballpark. And so now you're

2502
02:10:51,840 --> 02:10:54,440
Speaker 1: sitting sitting here, You're not even in May. Why would

2503
02:10:54,520 --> 02:10:56,160
Speaker 1: you want to go to the South side of Chicago

2504
02:10:56,200 --> 02:10:59,360
Speaker 1: and watch the game? Like there's a hundred other things

2505
02:10:59,360 --> 02:11:04,400
Speaker 1: that you could rather do then watch a team that

2506
02:11:04,520 --> 02:11:07,920
Speaker 1: now is tied with the Royals for dead last and

2507
02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:13,040
Speaker 1: has no interest in I don't know providing entertainment for you.

2508
02:11:13,120 --> 02:11:16,680
Speaker 1: I just I don't blame you for muting and turning away.

2509
02:11:16,520 --> 02:11:19,920
Speaker 3: But take it further. My brothers and I having our conversations,

2510
02:11:19,920 --> 02:11:22,040
Speaker 3: we always try to get together for a game here

2511
02:11:22,200 --> 02:11:25,200
Speaker 3: or back at home in Chicago. And the White Sox

2512
02:11:25,200 --> 02:11:27,960
Speaker 3: actually come to play a Dodger Stadium in June, right

2513
02:11:27,960 --> 02:11:30,560
Speaker 3: after my daughter's high school graduation. All of these things.

2514
02:11:30,600 --> 02:11:32,720
Speaker 3: When we looked at each other, I don't know that

2515
02:11:32,760 --> 02:11:34,080
Speaker 3: we're gonna make an effort to get there.

2516
02:11:34,160 --> 02:11:35,400
Speaker 1: No, I wouldn't, as much.

2517
02:11:35,240 --> 02:11:37,960
Speaker 3: As going to Dodger Stadium is a thing and a

2518
02:11:37,960 --> 02:11:41,240
Speaker 3: big deal and the White Sox playing there, and maybe

2519
02:11:41,240 --> 02:11:43,440
Speaker 3: I get to run off a bunch of stats about

2520
02:11:43,440 --> 02:11:48,200
Speaker 3: the fifty nine World Series. They lost. The excitement to

2521
02:11:48,280 --> 02:11:52,480
Speaker 3: go there, certainly not there, but excitement for the second

2522
02:11:52,560 --> 02:11:55,360
Speaker 3: round of the playoffs certainly coming up. Not except for you.

2523
02:11:55,360 --> 02:11:57,400
Speaker 3: You don't like Nick's heat. But at the end of

2524

Speaker 3: Seriously see terms. Check it out for yourself at discover

2527
02:12:05,680 --> 02:12:09,640
Speaker 3: dot com. Slash match the Lakers, they await the winner

2528
02:12:09,640 --> 02:12:12,320
Speaker 3: of today is game seven. So you've got the young,

2529
02:12:12,440 --> 02:12:17,080
Speaker 3: upstart Sacramento Kings. Now pay attention to who we are, Murray,

2530
02:12:17,440 --> 02:12:20,720
Speaker 3: so I know Iowa SAMs invested coming out of the

2531
02:12:20,760 --> 02:12:24,280
Speaker 3: Iowa part of things. We got de Aaron Fox Sabonas

2532
02:12:24,320 --> 02:12:27,160
Speaker 3: who likes to mix it up on occasion and then

2533
02:12:27,200 --> 02:12:30,520
Speaker 3: other times runs away from contact. And then you have

2534
02:12:31,360 --> 02:12:37,480
Speaker 3: the Golden State Warriors, the team that revolutionized the game.

2535
02:12:37,560 --> 02:12:42,200
Speaker 3: That's what you'll say. Steph Curry, Draymond Clay, your core

2536
02:12:42,320 --> 02:12:46,280
Speaker 3: is still there. Jordan Poole in and out. We don't

2537
02:12:46,320 --> 02:12:50,160
Speaker 3: know what those relationships are. But with that autopsy turvy

2538
02:12:50,640 --> 02:12:53,640
Speaker 3: series two to two and now one to one, winning

2539
02:12:53,680 --> 02:12:57,520
Speaker 3: on each other's winning road games, something Sacramento did during

2540
02:12:57,520 --> 02:12:59,600
Speaker 3: the year in Golden State, not so much, but they

2541
02:12:59,600 --> 02:13:03,320
Speaker 3: did take Game five, which is the better matchup for

2542
02:13:03,440 --> 02:13:05,240
Speaker 3: you as a viewer, Dan Bar.

2543
02:13:06,800 --> 02:13:10,880
Speaker 1: As much as I want the Kings to win this series,

2544
02:13:10,920 --> 02:13:12,800
Speaker 1: and I think it's great for them, and I think

2545
02:13:12,600 --> 02:13:16,560
Speaker 1: I think it's I think they're already winners, there's you

2546
02:13:16,600 --> 02:13:20,440
Speaker 1: can't you can't turn away from Warriors Lakers and Curry

2547
02:13:20,440 --> 02:13:21,520
Speaker 1: against Lebron.

2548
02:13:21,240 --> 02:13:23,600
Speaker 3: Two old boxers getting after it, heavyweights.

2549
02:13:24,040 --> 02:13:27,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, but also with something at stake, like of going

2550
02:13:27,480 --> 02:13:29,800
Speaker 1: to the Western Conference finals. You know, I don't even

2551
02:13:29,800 --> 02:13:32,280
Speaker 1: think we look at the Warriors as defending champs anymore.

2552
02:13:32,360 --> 02:13:33,200
Speaker 3: That's a long time ago.

2553
02:13:33,240 --> 02:13:36,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is so to have that, I think, you know,

2554
02:13:37,000 --> 02:13:39,000
Speaker 1: I just talked about like, oh, ratings, it's not even

2555
02:13:39,000 --> 02:13:41,040
Speaker 1: a ratings thing. It's just to have those brands, to

2556
02:13:41,080 --> 02:13:44,720
Speaker 1: be able to to to have those players on that

2557
02:13:44,760 --> 02:13:48,040
Speaker 1: same court and play of some you know, play a

2558
02:13:48,160 --> 02:13:52,720
Speaker 1: series with extreme substance, I think would be great. I

2559
02:13:52,760 --> 02:13:55,760
Speaker 1: think Lakers Kings would be very interesting and probably be

2560
02:13:55,800 --> 02:14:00,160
Speaker 1: my favorite series. But I think that Warriors Lakers would

2561
02:14:00,200 --> 02:14:02,520
Speaker 1: just be really off the charts.

2562
02:14:02,800 --> 02:14:05,839
Speaker 3: It just adds so much, right the storyline of the Kings.

2563
02:14:06,000 --> 02:14:08,960
Speaker 3: You could sell it to a degree, young team, here's

2564
02:14:09,000 --> 02:14:12,800
Speaker 3: some guys you should know going forward. Maybe a celebration

2565
02:14:12,880 --> 02:14:16,280
Speaker 3: of Deer and Fox a little bit. But I think

2566
02:14:16,360 --> 02:14:20,240
Speaker 3: when you get down to it, from the historical perspective,

2567
02:14:21,200 --> 02:14:25,200
Speaker 3: say nothing of having Los Angeles and San Francisco in

2568
02:14:25,280 --> 02:14:27,600
Speaker 3: the mix. And that's for the TV people to care about.

2569
02:14:28,000 --> 02:14:31,320
Speaker 3: But for fandom, their names. You know, people that maybe

2570
02:14:31,320 --> 02:14:34,840
Speaker 3: you hate watch on either side, whether it's Draymond Green,

2571
02:14:35,080 --> 02:14:37,320
Speaker 3: whether you're tired of Steph Curry, because I know there's

2572
02:14:37,360 --> 02:14:39,560
Speaker 3: been a period where many people got tired of Steph

2573
02:14:39,560 --> 02:14:42,760
Speaker 3: Curry and his mouthpiece chewing the double dribble that wasn't

2574
02:14:42,800 --> 02:14:46,120
Speaker 3: called the other night that we saw live and looked around.

2575
02:14:46,120 --> 02:14:48,920
Speaker 3: It's like, well they didn't do anything to it, okay, fine,

2576
02:14:48,920 --> 02:14:50,840
Speaker 3: and then the two minute report comes out, Oh yeah

2577
02:14:50,880 --> 02:14:53,000
Speaker 3: he should have been golfed. Well wait, wait a minute,

2578
02:14:53,080 --> 02:14:55,800
Speaker 3: what are we doing? But you've got that plus the

2579
02:14:55,920 --> 02:14:59,360
Speaker 3: Lebron and Ad side of things. I like all the

2580
02:14:59,400 --> 02:15:02,960
Speaker 3: secondary characters to this one, more so from the Lakers side.

2581
02:15:02,960 --> 02:15:05,520
Speaker 3: And I was on record six weeks ago saying I

2582
02:15:05,520 --> 02:15:08,800
Speaker 3: would have liked the iteration with Ad is out, Lebron

2583
02:15:08,920 --> 02:15:11,480
Speaker 3: is out. Let me, Let me watch D'Angelo Russell and

2584
02:15:11,560 --> 02:15:13,720
Speaker 3: Austin Reeves play like their hairs on fire.

2585
02:15:13,920 --> 02:15:17,800
Speaker 1: They'd love that. Yeah, I'm sure that would be a

2586
02:15:17,800 --> 02:15:20,440
Speaker 1: sight to see. I just remember when we talk about

2587
02:15:20,560 --> 02:15:23,120
Speaker 1: the play in tournament. A couple of years ago, we

2588
02:15:23,160 --> 02:15:25,640
Speaker 1: had Golden State in LA playing the playing Tournament, and

2589
02:15:25,640 --> 02:15:26,920
Speaker 1: there was a lot to that. I think it was

2590
02:15:26,920 --> 02:15:29,640
Speaker 1: probably the There were great finishes and other great games

2591
02:15:29,640 --> 02:15:31,320
Speaker 1: that we've had in playing tournaments, but I think that

2592
02:15:31,360 --> 02:15:32,520
Speaker 1: was the one that carried the most.

2593
02:15:32,360 --> 02:15:35,120
Speaker 3: Weight well and it helped keep that thing alive.

2594
02:15:35,280 --> 02:15:35,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2595
02:15:35,840 --> 02:15:38,600
Speaker 3: Right, they might have voted that out instead. Look at

2596
02:15:38,640 --> 02:15:39,440
Speaker 3: what we got.

2597
02:15:39,360 --> 02:15:41,440
Speaker 1: To have that series. And I'm saying this and not

2598
02:15:41,520 --> 02:15:44,080
Speaker 1: wanting the Warriors to win. I think that's that's the

2599
02:15:44,080 --> 02:15:49,120
Speaker 1: best series Warriors Lakers and I It's just it's it's unavoidable.

2600
02:15:49,560 --> 02:15:52,680
Speaker 1: It like truly it would be probably be one of

2601
02:15:52,720 --> 02:15:56,160
Speaker 1: the most meaningful series we'd have in the NBA playoffs.

2602
02:15:56,160 --> 02:16:01,240
Speaker 1: I'd say in the last fire. I've six seven years,

2603
02:16:01,320 --> 02:16:04,760
Speaker 1: maybe going back to the rubber match when Durant joined

2604
02:16:04,800 --> 02:16:07,440
Speaker 1: the Warriors and they played the Calves, because the next

2605
02:16:07,520 --> 02:16:09,080
Speaker 1: year when they played in the finals, we kind of

2606
02:16:09,160 --> 02:16:13,600
Speaker 1: knew what was going to happen, and it did, I think?

2607
02:16:13,880 --> 02:16:16,160
Speaker 1: And then you look at you know, Raptors, Warriors, Bubble,

2608
02:16:16,360 --> 02:16:18,560
Speaker 1: you know, Bucks Suns, and weren't I think that that

2609
02:16:18,640 --> 02:16:21,840
Speaker 1: would be the I think it'd probably be the best

2610
02:16:21,880 --> 02:16:23,880
Speaker 1: series since the twenty seventeen NBA Finals.

2611
02:16:23,920 --> 02:16:26,720
Speaker 3: Who's Lebron gonna attack on social media and fuel his fire?

2612
02:16:27,120 --> 02:16:29,600
Speaker 3: And see old Michael Jordan? I needed to create some hate?

2613
02:16:29,920 --> 02:16:30,360
Speaker 4: And is it?

2614
02:16:30,400 --> 02:16:30,960
Speaker 3: Who's it here?

2615
02:16:31,040 --> 02:16:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. How bet you

2616
02:16:33,840 --> 02:16:35,879
Speaker 1: Jack Nicholson will show up for the games though.

2617
02:16:35,720 --> 02:16:39,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll do that and we'll talk about hogis and

2618
02:16:39,160 --> 02:16:41,840
Speaker 3: whether you buy a repeat run because all of a sudden,

2619
02:16:42,120 --> 02:16:43,480
Speaker 3: how we we trust?

2620
02:16:44,000 --> 02:16:47,600
Speaker 1: By the way, I also I muted Shams on Thursday.

2621
02:16:48,160 --> 02:16:50,680
Speaker 3: Well you know he got stuff wrong, so I can't

2622
02:16:50,680 --> 02:16:51,600
Speaker 3: trust him anymore.

2623
02:16:51,760 --> 02:16:55,480
Speaker 1: Stop ruining picks. I hate it, can't stand it. It's

2624
02:16:55,520 --> 02:16:55,920
Speaker 1: bad enough.

2625
02:16:56,080 --> 02:16:57,480
Speaker 3: Then you're an NBA guy. Beat it.

2626
02:16:57,560 --> 02:17:00,000
Speaker 1: My direct TV was on delay, so I'm getting alert

2627
02:17:00,959 --> 02:17:04,640
Speaker 1: before the picks were actually even made by the insiders.

2628
02:17:04,920 --> 02:17:06,760
Speaker 1: I just put the phone mute down too.

2629
02:17:07,520 --> 02:17:10,520
Speaker 3: All notifications off from all of those unless you're actually

2630
02:17:10,560 --> 02:17:12,960
Speaker 3: working here at Fox Sports. Right now, let's turn it

2631
02:17:13,000 --> 02:17:15,080
Speaker 3: over to eaac Long and Crown one more time, run update.

2632
02:17:15,560 --> 02:17:19,160
Speaker 3: I want you trending in this social media fueled world.

2633
02:17:19,400 --> 02:17:23,360
Speaker 5: Speaking of media fellas, I swear and folks listening across

2634
02:17:23,400 --> 02:17:26,160
Speaker 5: the country, I swear I'm not making this up, but

2635
02:17:26,280 --> 02:17:30,360
Speaker 5: the NBA has just fined Dylan Brooks of the Memphis

2636
02:17:30,400 --> 02:17:37,600
Speaker 5: Grizzlies twenty five thousand dollars for violating league rules governing

2637
02:17:37,879 --> 02:17:42,119
Speaker 5: media interview access during Round one of the playoffs.

2638
02:17:42,200 --> 02:17:44,039
Speaker 3: I swear, I'm not making this up.

2639
02:17:44,160 --> 02:17:48,040
Speaker 5: As most of you know, Dylan Brooks said this after

2640
02:17:48,240 --> 02:17:49,880
Speaker 5: Game two of the playoffs.

2641
02:17:50,120 --> 02:17:55,879
Speaker 1: I don't care. He's old. I pulled bears. I don't

2642
02:17:55,879 --> 02:17:59,279
Speaker 1: respect no one until they come and give me forty.

2643
02:17:59,720 --> 02:18:06,160
Speaker 5: And since then he has said this, and as a result,

2644
02:18:06,200 --> 02:18:10,240
Speaker 5: again a short time ago, the NBA fined Dylan Brooks

2645
02:18:10,480 --> 02:18:15,160
Speaker 5: twenty five thousand dollars for violating league rules governing media

2646
02:18:15,160 --> 02:18:16,360
Speaker 5: interview access.

2647
02:18:16,480 --> 02:18:19,680
Speaker 3: Took several days to decide that could work. Good job,

2648
02:18:19,720 --> 02:18:23,760
Speaker 3: good effort. They're out of paper, out of ink, waiting

2649
02:18:23,760 --> 02:18:25,039
Speaker 3: for an ink supply to show up.

2650
02:18:25,120 --> 02:18:28,000
Speaker 5: The problem was at his appeal hearing, he didn't say

2651
02:18:28,000 --> 02:18:30,880
Speaker 5: anything either, So I guess do you have anything you'd

2652
02:18:30,920 --> 02:18:31,680
Speaker 5: say for yourself.

2653
02:18:32,680 --> 02:18:33,120
Speaker 1: I'm out.

2654
02:18:35,240 --> 02:18:39,720
Speaker 5: I'm swear. We can't make this stuff up. NBA action.

2655
02:18:40,200 --> 02:18:45,560
Speaker 5: It's fantastic anyway. The Eastern Conference semi Finals tip off

2656
02:18:45,600 --> 02:18:47,680
Speaker 5: at the top of the hour from Madison Square Garden

2657
02:18:47,720 --> 02:18:49,959
Speaker 5: with Game one between the Heat and the Knicks. The

2658
02:18:50,000 --> 02:18:53,320
Speaker 5: Knicks a short time ago officially ruling out All Star

2659
02:18:53,480 --> 02:18:56,160
Speaker 5: forward Julius Randall because of his sprained left ankle that

2660
02:18:56,200 --> 02:19:00,680
Speaker 5: he aggravated in this past Wednesday's first round clincher at Cleveland.

2661
02:19:00,760 --> 02:19:03,240
Speaker 5: After that, at three point thirty, Eastern Game seven from

2662
02:19:03,280 --> 02:19:07,160
Speaker 5: Sacramento between the Kings and the Golden State Warriors. Finally,

2663
02:19:07,200 --> 02:19:11,240
Speaker 5: in the NFL, ESPN reports that the NFL is targeting Thursday,

2664
02:19:11,520 --> 02:19:14,880
Speaker 5: May eleventh as the date to release it's twenty twenty

2665
02:19:14,959 --> 02:19:18,640
Speaker 5: three regular season schedules. So again, mark that date down

2666
02:19:19,320 --> 02:19:22,560
Speaker 5: May eleventh, which is a Thursday. And one final note

2667
02:19:22,560 --> 02:19:25,840
Speaker 5: on the Dylan Brooks fine. The Memphis Grizzlies are actually

2668
02:19:25,959 --> 02:19:31,240
Speaker 5: holding their postseason exit interviews today. Their head coach will

2669
02:19:31,280 --> 02:19:35,959
Speaker 5: be available, their general manager will be available.

2670
02:19:36,080 --> 02:19:38,240
Speaker 3: Many of the players are expected to be available.

2671
02:19:38,320 --> 02:19:42,120
Speaker 5: However, you know how they list probable, questionable, doubtful. I

2672
02:19:42,160 --> 02:19:44,560
Speaker 5: would say Dylan Brooks is doubtful to speak to the media.

2673
02:19:44,600 --> 02:19:46,520
Speaker 3: But that's just me back to you. Well, since I

2674
02:19:46,560 --> 02:19:50,199
Speaker 3: can't trust social media, include jops, he got stuff wrong,

2675
02:19:50,800 --> 02:19:53,080
Speaker 3: he let us down, and then you're an NBA guy

2676
02:19:53,120 --> 02:19:55,240
Speaker 3: trying to tip pick. I hate it when these people

2677
02:19:55,320 --> 02:19:56,400
Speaker 3: try to cross over.

2678
02:19:56,640 --> 02:19:59,199
Speaker 1: Yes, stay in your lane role.

2679
02:19:59,400 --> 02:20:03,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, well you wouldn't have known to mute him about.

2680
02:20:03,640 --> 02:20:05,920
Speaker 1: NFL topic, and then I had to un mute him.

2681
02:20:05,959 --> 02:20:08,560
Speaker 3: But then you have the idea that I can't trust

2682
02:20:08,640 --> 02:20:10,800
Speaker 3: any of it because there were people claiming that Dylan

2683
02:20:10,800 --> 02:20:12,640
Speaker 3: Brooks was already literally in kang.

2684
02:20:13,040 --> 02:20:17,600
Speaker 1: Well, you know, as an Ohio State fan, I get

2685
02:20:17,600 --> 02:20:22,080
Speaker 1: annoyed when Adam Schefter like retweets Michigan stuff because it's

2686
02:20:22,160 --> 02:20:25,600
Speaker 1: only like he'll tweet NFL stuff, but he's a Michigan alum,

2687
02:20:25,920 --> 02:20:28,680
Speaker 1: and so he'll just retweet Michigan things and it just

2688
02:20:28,760 --> 02:20:36,039
Speaker 1: annoys me so much because why, you know, the reason

2689
02:20:36,080 --> 02:20:38,440
Speaker 1: that millions of people are following you is for the

2690
02:20:38,560 --> 02:20:41,600
Speaker 1: NFL stuff, not for your own. What is Adam Schefter

2691
02:20:41,720 --> 02:20:44,640
Speaker 1: doing again, stay in your lane?

2692
02:20:45,160 --> 02:20:47,039
Speaker 3: I just can't wait till he gets another report that

2693
02:20:47,080 --> 02:20:49,879
Speaker 3: he has a guy working in a front office proofreed

2694
02:20:49,959 --> 02:20:52,640
Speaker 3: before he sends out he's a bio my Carbon Fox

2702
02:21:23,400 --> 02:21:27,800
Speaker 3: The long drought is over. The Toronto mayple Leaves who

2703
02:21:27,879 --> 02:21:32,440
Speaker 3: on mayple Leaves Radio on the call. Yeah, huge day

2704
02:21:32,520 --> 02:21:36,080
Speaker 3: of sadness for my parents while they celebrated the Rays

2705
02:21:36,120 --> 02:21:38,640
Speaker 3: beating up on my White Sox again. I may have

2706
02:21:38,959 --> 02:21:41,280
Speaker 3: to silence them because Mom's getting a little chesty about

2707
02:21:41,280 --> 02:21:46,279
Speaker 3: the rays. Okay, but the Tampa Bay lightning fall my parents,

2708
02:21:46,320 --> 02:21:48,920
Speaker 3: as have talked about in prior episodes here and with

2709
02:21:49,120 --> 02:21:53,640
Speaker 3: Smith Uh, Suddenly they're doing scouting reports, reading advanced notes

2710
02:21:54,280 --> 02:21:57,720
Speaker 3: heading into Tampa Bay lightning viewing, which is great, but

2711
02:21:57,800 --> 02:22:00,520
Speaker 3: they have been eliminated. The Leaves move on. It's been

2712
02:22:00,600 --> 02:22:04,480
Speaker 3: nearly two decades, so we've got all of that excitement

2713
02:22:04,600 --> 02:22:07,520
Speaker 3: between that, the Kings making the playoffs for the first

2714
02:22:07,560 --> 02:22:11,640
Speaker 3: time in seventeen years, and while the Jets are the Jets,

2715
02:22:11,959 --> 02:22:15,680
Speaker 3: so they have the longest drought going on in the NFL. Now,

2716
02:22:15,720 --> 02:22:19,440
Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers is at Madison Square Garden and everybody's happy,

2717
02:22:19,440 --> 02:22:21,760
Speaker 3: and he's hanging out with Neil Degrassi Tyson.

2718
02:22:22,920 --> 02:22:25,120
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I think is bs Mike, is

2719
02:22:25,240 --> 02:22:29,280
Speaker 1: that the Maple Leafs title that I won on EA

2720
02:22:29,480 --> 02:22:33,080
Speaker 1: Sports a few years ago for NHL twenty two not

2721
02:22:33,280 --> 02:22:37,160
Speaker 1: included in their postseason success that we talked about.

2722
02:22:37,320 --> 02:22:40,640
Speaker 3: Absolutely criminal, that's the progressive play of the day. Progressive

2726
02:22:48,959 --> 02:22:53,800
Speaker 3: hundred Progressive Now Dan the Philadelphia Eagles, Howie Roseman, I

2727
02:22:53,840 --> 02:22:56,200
Speaker 3: think they're probably gonna build a statue as quickly as

2728
02:22:56,240 --> 02:22:59,800
Speaker 3: they did for Carson Wentz, because at this point he's

2729
02:23:00,120 --> 02:23:04,720
Speaker 3: to be nominated for sainthood by the Eagles fans and

2730
02:23:05,560 --> 02:23:09,600
Speaker 3: the archbishops there here in short order, because seemingly everything

2731
02:23:09,680 --> 02:23:13,880
Speaker 3: he touches has to be a stroke of genius, including

2732
02:23:14,040 --> 02:23:15,879
Speaker 3: the acquisition of DeAndre Swift.

2733
02:23:16,240 --> 02:23:19,360
Speaker 1: I think that is a good pickup. I wondered what

2734
02:23:19,440 --> 02:23:23,000
Speaker 1: team DeAndre Swift was going to go to, and I

2735
02:23:23,680 --> 02:23:25,800
Speaker 1: was sad to see that it went to the Philadelphia Eagles,

2736
02:23:25,800 --> 02:23:28,760
Speaker 1: because I do think that he really helps them. I

2737
02:23:28,840 --> 02:23:33,959
Speaker 1: will say this, though, there is so much like goodwill

2738
02:23:34,040 --> 02:23:38,160
Speaker 1: and positivity around the Eagles draft and what they've done

2739
02:23:38,200 --> 02:23:41,320
Speaker 1: and Howie Roseman's done it again. Best roster in the

2740
02:23:41,400 --> 02:23:45,160
Speaker 1: National Football League. I get it, that's what it says

2741
02:23:45,240 --> 02:23:48,360
Speaker 1: on paper. But you know what, there is such a

2742
02:23:48,440 --> 02:23:51,680
Speaker 1: thing as a Super Bowl hangover. There is such a

2743
02:23:51,760 --> 02:23:56,520
Speaker 1: thing of adjusting after you lose your offensive and defensive coordinators.

2744
02:23:56,920 --> 02:23:59,760
Speaker 1: There is also something to and when you're playing in

2745
02:23:59,800 --> 02:24:02,640
Speaker 1: one of the biggest games to have your quarterback tell

2746
02:24:02,640 --> 02:24:05,400
Speaker 1: your head coach to shut up or to cool down

2747
02:24:05,879 --> 02:24:08,640
Speaker 1: because he's lipping off and mouthing off to someone. That

2748
02:24:08,800 --> 02:24:11,040
Speaker 1: to me is a red flag. You know what else

2749
02:24:11,160 --> 02:24:14,039
Speaker 1: is a red flag, Mike Harmon is Jalen Carter drops

2750
02:24:14,080 --> 02:24:16,200
Speaker 1: to nine and all. We've had our question marks about

2751
02:24:16,680 --> 02:24:22,320
Speaker 1: Jalen Carter the offseason, even there were talks of his motivation.

2752
02:24:22,800 --> 02:24:24,920
Speaker 1: Well look at his pro day, yes, all of that,

2753
02:24:25,240 --> 02:24:27,520
Speaker 1: but yet the Eagles gonna be at nine and were like, man,

2754
02:24:27,640 --> 02:24:30,640
Speaker 1: the Eagles do it again. Uh uh, this team is

2755
02:24:30,680 --> 02:24:33,320
Speaker 1: in for a root awakening. Do not believe all this

2756
02:24:33,440 --> 02:24:36,600
Speaker 1: Eagles hype that you are hearing this team coming off

2757
02:24:36,680 --> 02:24:39,480
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl loss. Mike, it's stings teams. They're not

2758
02:24:39,680 --> 02:24:42,400
Speaker 1: like the Cincinnati Bengals. They aren't built like the Cincinnati Bengals.

2759
02:24:42,959 --> 02:24:45,440
Speaker 1: They may have better players, but there is something that

2760
02:24:45,640 --> 02:24:49,760
Speaker 1: is missing with the Eagles. And I just I people

2761
02:24:49,920 --> 02:24:52,360
Speaker 1: love their draft and love everything about it. I think

2762
02:24:52,400 --> 02:24:54,480
Speaker 1: they're in for a root awakening in twenty twenty three.

2763
02:24:54,680 --> 02:24:56,440
Speaker 3: I think the biggest question that comes in is just

2764
02:24:56,520 --> 02:24:59,720
Speaker 3: looking at the division off the jump. You could like

2765
02:25:00,080 --> 02:25:03,240
Speaker 3: visual pieces what the Giants have done in terms of

2766
02:25:03,320 --> 02:25:06,280
Speaker 3: some of the additions, right trading, bringing in Waller, grabbing

2767
02:25:06,320 --> 02:25:09,560
Speaker 3: a wide receiver. There's some good. Dallas is always a

2768
02:25:09,640 --> 02:25:11,920
Speaker 3: team that all right, why an't you gonna show me something?

2769
02:25:11,959 --> 02:25:16,600
Speaker 3: In Washington may make strides, but I you think de

2770
02:25:16,720 --> 02:25:19,000
Speaker 3: facto you've got at least a walk into the playoffs.

2771
02:25:19,000 --> 02:25:21,680
Speaker 1: I didn't even mention aj Brown sulking after a win

2772
02:25:21,800 --> 02:25:24,039
Speaker 1: in the playoffs because he didn't have you know, enough

2773
02:25:24,120 --> 02:25:27,680
Speaker 1: catches or targets telling you those are red flags. People

2774
02:25:28,320 --> 02:25:30,680
Speaker 1: red flags, hashtag buyer scores.

2775
02:25:30,760 --> 02:25:33,640
Speaker 3: That's right, hashtag buyer scores. Dan's gonna go shoot over

2776
02:25:33,800 --> 02:25:37,439
Speaker 3: at the LA Country Club on the sixth and fifteenth

2777
02:25:37,520 --> 02:25:42,240
Speaker 3: holes tomorrow. Guess his total score, win some US Open suit.

2778
02:25:42,520 --> 02:25:45,039
Speaker 1: Don't know what the swag's gonna be at, but we'll

2779
02:25:45,080 --> 02:25:46,040
Speaker 1: put together something for you.

2780
02:25:46,160 --> 02:25:48,800
Speaker 3: It's a mystery package, and I've got mountains of cards

2781
02:25:48,800 --> 02:25:50,840
Speaker 3: I need to get rid of. Steve and Richard coming
