We are about to 9 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 2: tip off the first of the Final four games, NC 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,879 Speaker 2: State going up against Purdue, followed the course by Alabama 11 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 2: and Yukon, and Mon says, we sit here right now 12 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:43,639 Speaker 2: our bracket challenge. I was right there until Tennessee went 13 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: down in flames. That was my last hope, that Tennessee game. 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: And you had Tennessee as well I did, and we 15 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: circle the drain on that one. This is an interesting matchup. 16 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: We're about to watch NC State twenty six and fourteen. 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 2: That is the most losses ever by a team to 18 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 2: get to the Final Four. They're also an eleven seed, 19 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 2: which is the lowest seeding of any Final four team. 20 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 2: And keep in mind this there have been seven double 21 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 2: digit seed teams to get to the Final four. None 22 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: of them have won their semi final game, none of 23 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 2: them have actually made it to the championship game. And 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 2: then you got on the other side Perdue and Zach 25 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 2: Edy and his monster presence. So you're gonna have to 26 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 2: beat the giant if you want NC State to move 27 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: on to the championship game. 28 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not afraid of giants, because everyone's a 29 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 3: giant to me. 30 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 2: Yes, every single. 31 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 4: Person there pefore are like, oh, this guy's actually Dawn 32 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 4: Like No, everyone's tall to me, so I would not 33 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 4: be intimidated. But he he is a giant and he's 34 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 4: playing really well. It's gonna be a fun and I 35 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 4: think it's gonna be a challenge, but I'm looking forward 36 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 4: to it. 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: I am too, So we're gonna be all over this 38 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 2: game as it comes about. So we'll keep you updated 39 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 2: throughout the show on that matchup and get you ready 40 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: for that game later between Alabama and Ukon. But I 41 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: want to start things right now talking about the aftermath 42 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 2: of the women's semi finals. As Iowa and South Carolina 43 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: will advance to the championship game, which will be tomorrow 44 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 2: in Cleveland. Let's get back to the game and what 45 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 2: happened at the end of the game and the controversy 46 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 2: about the illegal moving screen, the offensive foul called against 47 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: Yukon that gave Iowa the ball back, and of course 48 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark made a free throw, missed a free throw, 49 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: but Iowa got the ball back and the game was over. 50 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: And I'm hearing, of course it was when you have 51 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 2: former Yukon stars, you know, I like Diana Trossi and 52 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 2: sueb you know, talking about you know, we basically got 53 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: screwed over in this thing. I'm like, okay, let's settle down. 54 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 2: And this is something that I always wonder about when 55 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: you have fouls or penalties as you might have in football, 56 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: like when is the right time or the wrong time 57 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 2: to actually call a foul. And let's be perfectly clear, 58 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 2: that was an offensive foul. Yes, she was moving her 59 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 2: left leg. In fact, she extended her left leg at 60 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 2: the last second to create the screen. She was not set. 61 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 2: See a lot of people were watching, I'm sure they 62 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 2: had a huge audience for the game last night. They 63 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: really don't understand the rules. And I'm like, okay, the 64 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 2: rule on a screen is you have to be set, 65 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:30,839 Speaker 2: and she was not set. 66 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, so as I was watching this game, literally, the 67 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: boyfriend's like game winning bucket right now, Pagebecker's watch and 68 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 4: I was like, oh, I I didn't care who won. 69 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 3: I'm rooting. 70 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 4: I guess I was rooting for Iowa if I had 71 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 4: to pick someone. But I will say when the call 72 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 4: was made, I said I would not make that call. 73 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: Was it the right call? 74 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 4: Yes? 75 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 3: I would not have made that call. 76 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 4: Give it to the ref though, because in live time, 77 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 4: to be able to catch that slide is very difficult, 78 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: because people were saying it wasn't oh watch it in 79 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 4: slow motion, it's she's moving, she's moving, she sticks to 80 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 4: her leg, out her elbow. In lifetime, it must have 81 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 4: been very difficult to see that. Give it to the 82 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 4: rest for catching. 83 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 3: That, right. But I don't know if I who'ld have 84 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 3: called that, Steve, I don't know well. 85 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 2: And then the other argument was, well, the screen didn't 86 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: actually work, in other words, it didn't actually serve the purpose. 87 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 2: The problem was she didn't get to her spot in time, 88 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: so it wasn't malicious, but she's trying to extend her elbow, 89 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: but definitely extending the leg to try to get the 90 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: screen happening to create the final shot for Page. Becker's Yes, 91 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 2: but the idea that an official has to take into 92 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: account how much time's left in the game, I don't 93 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 2: buy that ever. I mean, and I know that Gino 94 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 2: Arim after the game was making the point that we 95 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 2: got called for four illegal picks in this game and 96 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 2: Iowa got picked, you know, called for none, and he 97 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 2: sort of jokingly said, well, you have to do a 98 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: better job with our illegal screens when the answer is yeah, yeah. 99 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 2: We see the same thing in football when you have 100 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: offensive pass interference where you have a pick and you're like, 101 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 2: you're gonna call that now, as opposed to when and 102 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 2: did it really affect the play. As an official, you're 103 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 2: calling a game. You're not looking up saying, oh, there's 104 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 2: three seconds left. We can't make that call. We want 105 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 2: to let the players decide the game. That's that's not 106 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: how you're trained as an official. You make the call 107 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 2: as you see it in the moment. 108 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, that was the right call. You can't 109 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 4: blame them for making the call. It's just people get 110 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 4: this tunnel vision in that situation, and I see people 111 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 4: like fans, like all of us, in that moment you 112 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 4: are waiting for an epic like either a game winning 113 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 4: bucket or you know, they miss and it's over. You 114 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 4: were we were all just on the edge of our 115 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 4: seats waiting to see what was gonna happen. And then 116 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 4: it was a bit of a deflating moment. But is 117 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 4: that the ref's fault. No, it's just that's their job. 118 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 4: But it was everybody has a little bit of tunnel 119 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 4: vision in that moment because Yukon was down, you know, 120 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 4: at one point, wasn't Iowa by twelve, and then so 121 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 4: they crawled back into it, and so I think we 122 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 4: all just wanted a moment and it didn't happen. But 123 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 4: that's no one's fault, but the player's fault. Did the 124 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: illegal screen and it sucks, It super sucks. The right call. 125 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 4: Good for you to make the right call. I'm just 126 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 4: saying I don't know if I would have made that call, 127 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 4: which is why I'm. 128 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: Not a rough well, and I will give the the 129 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 2: Yukon players credit, including Page Beckers that said, look, that 130 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 2: one play is not the reason we lost this game, 131 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: right she did? Beckers did, and Gino Ariama called out 132 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,119 Speaker 2: Beckers a little bit after the game's saying it wasn't 133 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 2: her normal game, certainly not as good as she was 134 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 2: in the Elite eight matchup. And I don't he goes, 135 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna guess it might have been something physical. She 136 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: wouldn't say that. She did say I wish I had 137 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 2: played better. And speaking of playing better, Caitlyn. 138 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 3: Clark also didn't have her greatest no. 139 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: In fact, she wasn't even heard teams leading scorer in 140 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 2: the game. When does that happen? 141 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 4: And in the first half she had four points and 142 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 4: I just was like, the first points that Caitlyn Clark scored, 143 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 4: it was a driving layup. 144 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 3: Then she took a couple threes and missed. 145 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 4: The next time she scored again five minutes left in 146 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 4: the first half, another layup, and I was like, Kaitlyn, 147 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 4: get in there, like, stop taking the shots. Obviously things 148 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 4: changed in the second half and she got in a 149 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 4: better groove, hitting that a one. You know and so, 150 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 4: but they were playing defense on her like they were gum. 151 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 4: They were a piece of gum on her. 152 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: I want to talk about Caitlin Clark for a second. 153 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: So Don Staley, the coach at South Carolina, made a 154 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: comment that a lot of people have said, if you 155 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: want to be in the conversation as the goat got 156 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 2: to win a championship, And Kaitlin Clark said, I don't 157 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 2: think so. And then I thought to myself, if Michael 158 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 2: Jordan had never won an NBA championship, but everything else 159 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: remained the same, all the scoring titles and everything else, 160 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 2: but he had never won an NBA championship, would he 161 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 2: be in the conversation as the goat. 162 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 3: No, that's an easy answer, no, right, yeah. 163 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 2: But so I mean, why would it be different for 164 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,119 Speaker 2: Kaitlin Clark, and especially since South Carolina is a prohibitive 165 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 2: favor tomorrow and for good reason, they're undefeated. Plus it's 166 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 2: a revenge game for being upset by IOWA last year. Now, 167 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 2: if IOWA wins and beats undefeated South Carolina two years 168 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: in a row, then Kaitlin Clark is in the conversation. 169 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: But if she suffers the same fate she did in 170 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 2: the championship game last year against LSU and walks away 171 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 2: with no championships. Remember Brianna stell Or, not only was 172 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 2: it yukon four years of four championships, she was the 173 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 2: mop in four straight final fours on the lady's side. 174 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: So I just asked you about Michael Jordan. If you 175 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: were to say he never won an NBA championship without 176 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: all the other numbers and everything else, would he be 177 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 2: in the conversation as the goat. 178 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I will change my answer when it comes 179 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 3: to Kitlin Clark. And I'll tell you why Kitlin Clark. 180 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 4: Did not go to Yukon. She did not go to 181 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 4: a powerhouse school. And is she surrounded by other stars 182 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 4: like the players in the past have been. No, And 183 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 4: so I know that's not fair because I just said 184 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 4: that Michael Jordan without the championships would not be considered 185 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 4: the goat. I'm gonna say that Kitlin Clark's situation, she 186 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 4: is an exception to the rule because of where she played, 187 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 4: not joining a powerhouse school, the records that she's broken, and. 188 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 3: It's just even if she's not your goat, that's fine. 189 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 4: But to deny it simply because she may not win 190 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 4: one is my problem. 191 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 3: Like, give me other reasons. I don't know. 192 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 4: We see her talent. She has completely changed the face 193 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 4: of the game this. 194 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 3: Year and last year too. We see it. It's she's different. 195 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 3: She's a start. Like you put it, she's a star. 196 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 5: All right? 197 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: Well, that to me is different than Goat, and that's 198 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 2: sure to me, Goat includes your entire resume. In fact, 199 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: for years, I would say, you know, we keep talking 200 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: about Jordan, we talk about Lebron. Where's Kareem Abdill Jabbar. 201 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 2: I mean, he has the most MVP awards still he 202 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: has six NBA championships. By the way, if you want 203 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: to include his college years where he won three championships. 204 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: I mean, most people acknowledge he is the greatest college 205 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 2: player of all time, but would you have been at 206 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: he not won any national championships at UCLA. I mean, 207 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: Pete Marrivich is the guy that had all the scoring records. 208 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 2: The comparisons to her from a college standpoint, or to 209 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: Pete Marravan's like the scoring machine or a Steph Curry 210 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 2: at Davidson, you know, with his three point shooting. But 211 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 2: those guys are not in the conversation as far as 212 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: the greatest college basketball player of all time because unlike 213 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: a Kareem or a Bill Walton, they didn't win a 214 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,359 Speaker 2: national championship. 215 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 4: But she's also she also stands out though among the 216 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 4: players that we've seen in. 217 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: The past, she is by far the greatest drawing card, 218 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: not just in women's collegiate history, women's basketball history. 219 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 4: And I am going to give her and her team 220 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 4: credit for reaching the championship two years in a row again, 221 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 4: not going to a powerhouse like I just don't see 222 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 4: how how we don't take that into consideration. I get it, 223 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 4: I'm being gray in a situation where I've said black 224 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 4: and white with Michael Jordan. No, we wouldn't be talking 225 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: about him as a goo if he didn't win. But yeah, 226 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 4: I think with her situation it is an exception to 227 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 4: the rule. It's a great area and you may not agree, 228 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 4: but I to me that that would not matter because 229 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 4: it's Caitlin Clark. Now, if we're talking about Paige Becker's 230 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 4: the same conversation, who is at Yukon or when Diane 231 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 4: Trossi was at Yukon, I think, yeah. 232 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: No, you have to win because you went there, you 233 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 3: have to win. 234 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 4: Aldi Kaitlin has that pressure on her because she's at Iowa. 235 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 2: Again, I think she's the biggest star the women's college 236 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 2: basketball has ever known, and that is based on people 237 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 2: wanting to see her play. And when we go back 238 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 2: to that LSU matchup, twelve point three million people more 239 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 2: than watched any game of the twenty twenty three World Series, 240 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 2: more than watch all but one game of the NBA 241 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 2: Finals in twenty twenty three, more than watch the final 242 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: round of the twenty twenty three Masters, and actually a 243 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 2: bigger number than the average audience for Thursday night football streaming. 244 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: I understand no woman has ever moved the needle the 245 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: way she has the way she has. As far as that, 246 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 2: all right, coming up, we'll continue to update you. Purdue 247 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 2: is off to an eight to two start.

This guy's rising, 283 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 2: this guy's falling. So I'm gonna throw one of the 284 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 2: crazy we see things out there to you that I heard, 285 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 2: and I wanted to digest this a little bit, try 286 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 2: to even though I know it's fair. 287 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 5: So you know, players aren't rising or falling at this point. 288 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 5: What happens. It's just just educate people, reporters. Depending on 289 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 5: who you speak with, a personnel guy can say I 290 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 5: love this player. Well, maybe you thought that God was 291 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 5: going at thirty, now you think he's going at ten. 292 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 5: It's just a matter of who you speak with, right. 293 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 5: Most of it's nonsense, but go ahead. 294 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean last year, literally on the eve of 295 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: the draft, most people thought Will Levis was going to 296 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: be the second pick in the draft. 297 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 5: It was just total And then unfortunately these news aggregators 298 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 5: who don't know anything, Yeah, they started to give stuff 299 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 5: that was on message boards credence, and I called the 300 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 5: Panthers with that said, Hey, I just got to ask, 301 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 5: as I'm being asked by this with from the people 302 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 5: I work with, hey, this this is true, and they laughed. 303 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: They said, we. 304 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 5: Never told anyone that they were going anywhere. They never 305 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 5: spoke to anyone about it till the day of the draft. 306 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 2: All right, So I'm going to throw out a trade rumor. 307 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 2: I actually heard from two different sources, and it's a 308 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 2: wild trade rumor. But we all seem to believe that 309 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 2: the fifth overall pick right now in the hands of 310 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 2: the Chargers is in play. And so here was the 311 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 2: all time over the top idea. The Chargers trade Justin 312 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 2: Herbert to the Minnesota Vikings in return four the Vikings 313 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 2: two first round picks this year, number eleven and number 314 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 2: twenty three, their first round pick next year, and Jordan Addison. 315 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: Now was from do you know, is this a reporter 316 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 2: or so this was a report from where I can't 317 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 2: give you this week anyway. I can't otherwise I'd have 318 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 2: to do something to you. I can't do it. So anyway, 319 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 2: So the idea is the Chargers would still have the 320 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: fifth pick in the draft. So you do have the 321 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 2: fifth pick, the eleventh pick, the twenty third pick next 322 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 2: year's number one, and you get Jordan Addison all in 323 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 2: exchange for Justin Herbert. Now, I threw it at Monsei 324 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 2: here Adham and she's a Chargers fan, and first her 325 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 2: first thought was ridiculous, You're never going to trade Justin Herbert. 326 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: But it does come down to, well, wait a second. Here, 327 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 2: you got a new coach, Jim Harbaugh. He's a big 328 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 2: fan of the guy. He just had a Michigan JJ McCarthy. 329 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 2: You would have three number one picks either use or 330 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 2: use his trade collateral, plus a one next year, and 331 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 2: you get a top flight receiver in Addison. I don't 332 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 2: think it's that far fetched of a deal. 333 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 5: The problem is the dead money on the cap. You 334 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 5: have to always consider he just sent an extension last year. 335 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 5: There would be a tremendus amount of dead money. No, 336 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 5: I would say, this won't happen. 337 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: Okay, So is there a more reasonable thought on what 338 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 2: the Chargers would do with the fifth overall pick? God, 339 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: do always use it? Yeah? 340 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 5: Oh, I mean if they use it or don't. 341 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: What if they don't use it? If they trade it? 342 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 5: Well, they have so many needs, particularly on defense. Yeah, 343 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 5: I mean you got well, not that you want to 344 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 5: trade inside the division, but the Raiders are looking at 345 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 5: a quarterback and I know if I'm talking to people there. 346 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 5: They're looking at all sorts of scenarios to get that 347 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 5: quarterback in Minnesota. The reason why they made their trade 348 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 5: is obvious. They want a quarterback and they want to 349 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 5: be in position to do so. So the Chargers have 350 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,199 Speaker 5: their quarterback and that not that it makes it easy, 351 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 5: but it makes it easier. You don't have to worry 352 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 5: about that. And yes, they have so many needs. In fact, 353 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 5: they need two starting receivers. They need one more starting 354 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 5: offensive lineman. They need at least one more young edge rusher. 355 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 5: They need two corners, they need a safety. Yeah, they 356 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 5: have a lot of needs. 357 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 4: Hey, Adam, so what's the latest with the Cardinals and 358 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 4: their fourth overall pick. 359 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 3: Do you have you heard of they're trading? Are they 360 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 3: going to keep it? 361 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 5: They're listening, I mean they're listening. They have the NFL's 362 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 5: worst roster, so when you have that, you always have 363 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 5: to listen. And I do believe the geth Harrison if 364 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 5: they don't trade it. The thing, you know, talking to 365 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 5: general managers over the years, you never want to get 366 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 5: trade out when you have a chance to drift a 367 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame player. There are people I've spoken with 368 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 5: who think Marvin Harrison Junior will wind up being better 369 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 5: than his father, who, by the way, is in the 370 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame. 371 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 2: Well, not only in the Hall of Fame, but one 372 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: of the great resumes of any wide receiver in the 373 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: history of the National Football League. All right, so are 374 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 2: we are we set with the top three picks? Is 375 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 2: there any way that any of the top three picks 376 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 2: will be traded out? 377 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,360 Speaker 5: Well, the one to look at would be number three 378 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 5: with the Patriots. They have a bad offensive roster and 379 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 5: obviously that on the quarterback. They need a couple offensive linemen. 380 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 5: They have to redo their they have to completely redo 381 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,719 Speaker 5: their wide receiver group. They have a bunch of number three, 382 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 5: fours and fives. They don't have a one or two, 383 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 5: so they have a lot of work to do. They 384 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 5: have work to do a cornerback, so they just have 385 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 5: a lot of needs. Drake may and I wrote this 386 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 5: for profooballnetwork dot com in my notes lately. The guy 387 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 5: has got a ton of talent. He just needs to 388 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 5: be coached up hard, needs to be developed. He's not 389 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 5: as clean as a prospect as Jade Daniels, who's I 390 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 5: fully expect, which I've felt in the last two or 391 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 5: three months, is going to go to number two to 392 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 5: Washington May should go at three. So they asked you 393 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 5: a question. That's where I think there's that opportunity for 394 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 5: this regime to trade down. Why you've got it, Bill 395 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,880 Speaker 5: Belichick with personnel control has gone Elliott wolf Ron's son 396 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 5: overseas personnel. He more or less is the defactor general manager. 397 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 5: They have a lot of needs. Now, the question would be, 398 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 5: and this is Steve, this is the tough call here. 399 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 5: This happens every year. If you're going to trade down 400 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 5: and you need a quarterback, are you able to trade 401 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 5: down enough or not go far too far where you 402 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 5: could still get that quarterback? Because again, you've got the Raiders, 403 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 5: you got the Vikings. Those two teams are not only 404 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 5: looking to trade up. I mean they're looking to get 405 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 5: somewhere where they can get that guy. You have to 406 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 5: be very careful. You look at Arizona, they're okay with 407 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 5: Kyler Murray for now. The Giants, by the way, you 408 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 5: can't discount them at six. That's the problem with trading 409 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,959 Speaker 5: down when you need a quarterback. You just don't know 410 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 5: for sure who's going to trade up to get one 411 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 5: or take one where they are. 412 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 4: Remember I think it was two weeks ago, Adam, I 413 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 4: asked you about Stefan Diggs and his cryptic messages on 414 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 4: Twitter he gets traded. Do you see this as a 415 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 4: win win situation because of the contract now, which just 416 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 4: being one year. 417 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, and look, they took on a lot of dead 418 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 5: money that they wanted them off the roster. My thought 419 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 5: coming back from the owners meetings was that this would 420 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 5: be his last year. I felt pretty strongly about it. 421 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 5: I didn't know if they'd have that trade partner and 422 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 5: the Houston see, you got a team that knows it's 423 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 5: the Bills. Don't think they're rebuilding. They think they're retooling 424 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 5: the roster. They want to win, to try to They're 425 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 5: going to try to win, but yet redo the roster. 426 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 5: The Texans are not in a rebuild anymore. They've got 427 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 5: their quarterback, they've got their head coach. They just need 428 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 5: to add more pieces, a couple more pieces, and they 429 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 5: might be championship material, which is one of the all time. 430 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 5: And this is my twenty fifth year of cover the 431 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 5: National Football League. This has been quite a turnaround in 432 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 5: about sixteen months. This has been remarkable. They've been able 433 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 5: to do and Dick's now in the twilight of his career, 434 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 5: and I know they've redone his deal here. They feel like, 435 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 5: now this gives him better versatility, better death, just experience 436 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,439 Speaker 5: at that receiver position for their top three guys, and 437 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 5: they've got the tight end, the quarterback. They've redone their 438 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 5: offensive line. Folks, is this is not your father's or 439 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 5: moms Texans. This is a team that has a chance 440 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 5: to be not only the best team in franchise history, 441 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 5: they have a chance to build something special here going 442 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 5: for it well. 443 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 2: And you follow the history of the game as I do, 444 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: and you know a lot of times when you have 445 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 2: a team that has just this miraculous breakout season, even 446 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 2: if they're destined for greatness down the road, that next 447 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 2: year tends to be a step back. That doesn't mean 448 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 2: they can't be successful after that. I mean, I'll go 449 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 2: back to the forty nine ers. After they won their 450 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 2: first Super Bowl, strike shortened season, the next year they 451 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 2: were three and six and so but then after that, 452 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: obviously they were back on track. I want to get 453 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 2: one more question into you about the Rashi Rice situation. 454 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 2: He admitted he did wrong. You know, they were just 455 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 2: blaming it on you know, being young and dumb, you 456 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 2: know type of thing. But how is the league looking 457 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 2: at this? How are the chiefs looking at this situation? 458 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm fully expecting a suspension and fairly lengthy, and 459 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 5: it puts them in a tough buying because now you 460 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 5: have this off the field issue. Now, he had not 461 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 5: had any issues, as I understand it, at least as 462 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 5: a professional, until this one. This one's serious. I mean, 463 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,239 Speaker 5: he's very lucky no one passed away. Yes, there were 464 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,479 Speaker 5: no fatalities. So in Hollywood, Brown is their other starting receiver. 465 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 5: He's on a one year deal. So it just takes 466 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 5: the knee at receiver and pushes it up to number 467 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 5: one and cornerback is one A. But it's an unfortunate situation. 468 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 2: See there's video. 469 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 5: Law enforcement has a pretty idea of what happened, and 470 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 5: there's just I mean, it's fun. He's admitting it. The 471 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 5: attorney's put a statement out where they're emitting fault here 472 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 5: and he's going to be suspended, and we fully expected 473 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 5: to be fairly lengthy here. It's is, it is what 474 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 5: it is, and we got to be careful here with it. 475 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 5: And this is you know, this is we've seen this 476 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 5: in unfortunately professional sports, the drag racing stuff illegally, and 477 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 5: you know what happened. I'm sure if you follow the 478 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 5: NBA to Bobby Phills, which is tragic. 479 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 2: So can't have this stuff absolutely. By the way, just 480 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 2: quick notice Adam mentioned a little bit earlier. Make no 481 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 2: mistake about it. Over these next several weeks, we're gonna 482 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 2: hear all kinds of crazy stories of rumors. There are 483 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 2: thirty two NFL teams. Their draft boards are already done. Correct, Yes, 484 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,959 Speaker 2: the draft boards are done. I mean each team has 485 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 2: got their draft board ready. It would be you know, 486 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 2: something miraculous would have to happen for someone to rise 487 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 2: or follow anyone's draft board. Right now, you just start 488 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 2: floating rumors out there, maybe positioning yourself to be in 489 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: a better start to get the guy you want. It's 490 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 2: all part of the game. 491 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 5: There'll be some surprises. One thing I do want to 492 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 5: add there are some that will shock you. Oway is 493 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 5: that the draft in twenty seventeen when the Bears traded 494 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 5: up I believe with the Niners. 495 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 2: But the bottom line is they trade it up. Nobody 496 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:01,959 Speaker 2: knew who was going to be. 497 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 5: Everyone guessed wrong, even John Fox the Bears head coach 498 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 5: then didn't known till twenty four hours before the draft 499 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 5: that was going to be mitched Tubisky.

I would 539 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: have some kind of diatribe about something, and he would 540 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: say something along the lines of, son, you know, I 541 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 2: don't give a bleep about anything you're talking about right now. 542 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: That's how my great father, Bill Hartman was.

Like Steve 548 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 7: talks so much that he knows the sound of his voice. 549 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 7: Do I ever, And doesn't you turn your voice on 550 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 7: to help you go to sleep at night?

Ever, It's unbelievable, and even notices, yeah, 566 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 2: and the same underwear. All right. 567 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 7: So on that note, let's get right into the NCAA 568 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 7: Final four. And you all were talking about the NFL 569 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 7: draft role, Zach Ede might be making a case for 570 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 7: rising of the rankings in the NBA draft. Ten point 571 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 7: six rebounds for this one seed in Purdue twenty six 572 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 7: to sixteen. There in front of NC State, the eleven 573 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 7: seed six to twenty nine. Of course, in the first half, 574 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 7: their winner will take on the winner of the next game, 575 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 7: which is eight forty nine Eastern. Gotta get those times 576 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 7: exactly right. And it's the four seed Alabama facing off 577 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 7: against the reigning national champ coached by Dan Hurley, the 578 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 7: one seed in a yukon the Lakers with a win 579 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,959 Speaker 7: in the afternoon time one sixteen to ninety seven, holding 580 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 7: off the Calves, using a big fourth quarter to do so. 581 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 7: And Lebron James had a nice allup. He had twenty 582 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 7: four points in twelve assists. He did turn it over 583 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 7: five times, five of the team seventeen turnovers. Got to 584 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 7: make sure we get that in Spencer Strider is the 585 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 7: Braves pitcher extraorded air and according to reports, he is 586 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 7: diagnosed with UCL damage following in MRI, So not good 587 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 7: news on his front for one of the big names 588 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 7: in the sport. Regarding the teams that are playing in 589 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 7: such a Sport. The Dodgers have a four to nothing 590 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 7: lead against the Cubs. That's in the top of the ninth, 591 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 7: So Freddie Freeman, despite the fact he's oh for fourth 592 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 7: a dish with a strikeout, Dodgers are finding offense elsewhere. 593 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 7: Pirates with a three to two lead against the Orioles 594 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 7: that is in the top of the ninth as well. 595 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 7: Mets have blown a lead. What's the surprise? What is 596 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 7: a surprise? Not that eight to five, the Reds are 597 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 7: in front and the rets of bases juiced in the 598 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 7: bottom of the eighth. Quick to mention some of the 599 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 7: finals athletics over the Tigers ford to nothing, Guardians three 600 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 7: to one winners versus the Twins, the Cardinals, they take 601 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 7: it to the Marlins three to one. The Marlins Mons 602 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 7: and Steve are o and nine on the year. I 603 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 7: don't think, and I know there's one hundred and sixty 604 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 7: two games. I don't think the Marlins are going to 605 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 7: win a single game this year. 606 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: Now that would I can't be sure. I'll have to check, 607 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 2: but I don't think that's ever happened. It's going to happen, 608 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 2: trust me with it. They can they get to one 609 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty losses, Like the inaugural season of the 610 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 2: New York Mets. They were forty and one hundred and twenty. 611 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 2: They had two games that were canceled mercifully. That's the benchmark, 612 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty losses. Can they get there? I 613 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: know that the Mets seemingly get there every year. 614 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 7: Yes, but I can confirm with you that it will 615 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 7: be much more than one twenty. It will be one 616 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 7: sixty two. 617 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: One sixty. Horses are telling. 618 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 4: Me Marlins are going to come and have a fifteen 619 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 4: game win streak. 620 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 7: Watch people, Oh, well, didn't the Rays do that last 621 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 7: year at some point. 622 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 3: After losing a lot? 623 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Orioles had a season back in nineteen eighty 624 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 2: was it eighty seven eighty? They just started the year nowhere? 625 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 2: They started a year oh. 626 00:30:55,360 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 7: And twenty one, and then how do they finish well? 627 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: They didn't finish in one hundred and sixty two, but 628 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 2: I mean they they lost well over one hundred games. 629 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 7: Moncey, it's wild to me, Steve.

I'm gonna show you a 669 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 2: picture of me during the height of this. Okay, so 670 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 2: this is nineteen seventy seven, I was nineteen years old. 671 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 2: I'll show you what I look like. 672 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 3: I'm i feeling you're gonna look exactly the same. 673 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 2: Hair's a lot longer, yeah, hair's longer, but the general 674 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 2: idea is pretty much the same. Once again, Steve Harvey 675 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 2: Montci Belanhos with you is Fox Sports Saturday. We're live 676 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 2: from the tire rack dot Com studios. All right, so 677 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 2: I want to get to this story. It happened, and 678 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:48,239 Speaker 2: there's actually a good ending to the story. So show Hey, 679 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 2: TONI finally hit his first homer. And by the way, 680 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: he's been on fire. He had a couple more hits today. 681 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 2: He's got his batting average over three hundred. So after 682 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: a slow start, show Hey is hitting like you would 683 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: expect a guy like Show Hey to hit. But his 684 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 2: first home run of the season happened the other night 685 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 2: at Dodger Stadium, was on Wednesday night, and he had 686 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 2: an absolute bomb, a four hundred and thirty foot bomb, 687 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 2: and there was a mad scramble on the right field 688 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 2: pavilion for the ball, and this woman named Amber Roman 689 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 2: ended up with the ball and you could see her. 690 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 2: They had the camera on her and she's holding up 691 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 2: the ball. Her husband was there, and all the fans 692 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 2: were excited, and you know instantly that there is value 693 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 2: to this baseball. It is Show Hey Otani's first home 694 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 2: run as a Los Angeles Dodger. So I get her 695 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: on a zoom call for the local television station because 696 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 2: she had come out with some well not very complimentary 697 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 2: stories about what happened afterwards. Long story short, She said 698 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: that she and her husband were taken from the grand stand. 699 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,239 Speaker 2: There were security people to grab them and then they 700 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: separated them. They told her husband you stay here, and 701 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 2: they brought her into a room with other security people 702 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 2: and basically said we need that baseball. And she's like, well, 703 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 2: how about if I want to keep the baseball and 704 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: they were told, well, then we're not authenticating it, so 705 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,720 Speaker 2: it'll be worthless. So they said we'll give you two hats, 706 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 2: two autograph hats, and she negotiated, I guess a little 707 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 2: further to get an autograph a bat and an autograph 708 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 2: the ball. And she said, well can I at least 709 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 2: meet show Hey. They're like, that's that's not possible. Meanwhile, 710 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 2: Shohe is having a press conference after the game talking 711 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 2: about it whether or not he got the ball, and 712 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 2: he goes, yes, I spoke to the woman through the 713 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 2: interpreter and yes, I was able to She she never 714 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 2: met this guy. So this is a pr nightmare for 715 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,400 Speaker 2: the Dodgers that was unfolding. Now, the Dodgers are smart, 716 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 2: really smart. How you become the richest organization in baseball. 717 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 2: So now what they did. They contacted her and they said, 718 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 2: you know what, on second thought, we'd like to do 719 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 2: something special for you and your husband. We're going to 720 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 2: have you on the field for a game on April twelfth, which, 721 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 2: by that way, also happens to be her birthday. Wow, 722 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 2: you will be able to get any autographs you want, anybody, 723 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 2: Mookie Freddie. Oh and by the way, we're going to 724 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 2: give you club seats field clubs seats for the game. 725 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 3: And yeah, yeah, no, the club levels. 726 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 4: Those club seats all you can eat with really good food. No, 727 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 4: I mean, you can't get a Dodger dog there. But 728 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 4: it's like staking lobster also type of situation. 729 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 2: She admitted, I would never have a chance in a 730 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 2: millionaires to sit in those seats. She seems to be happy. 731 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 2: But as some of the works in the Dodger organization, 732 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 2: as you have for years, what did you make of 733 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 2: this whole? 734 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 4: So you know, they did not handle it the way 735 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 4: they should have from the beginning, But I. 736 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,320 Speaker 3: Do think the situation is a little bit it isn't. 737 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Dodger should have handled it better from the beginning, 738 00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 4: But this girl walked away happy. Initially, I think she 739 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 4: just was told on social media, you're an idiot. You 740 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 4: could have gotten so much more. But if you go 741 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 4: on her Twitter page, which it's not sugar tips, yeah, 742 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 4: but it's sugar something. Yeah, I can't say it not 743 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 4: sugar tips, but you can get what I'm trying to 744 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 4: say here. She literally says like, I'm so happy. I 745 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 4: didn't want to, you know, keep the ball. I got 746 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 4: this and that. But I think people were like, how 747 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 4: did you let this slip away? 748 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 3: You had a goal mine heer, what are you thinking? 749 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden she changed her mind 750 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 4: as to not being happy with the situation. 751 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 3: Despite that the Dodgers didn't handle it well. 752 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 4: Clearly the girl didn't know what she had in front 753 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 4: of her, and they probably, unfortunately took a little bit 754 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 4: of advantage of that. Now it backfired on them because 755 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 4: look at their like you said, pr nightmare. Here they 756 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 4: are fixing it, and they are fixing it. I don't 757 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 4: know why it wasn't handled a little bit better from 758 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 4: the beginning. 759 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 2: Well, and I'm gonna throw this on show, hey a 760 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,399 Speaker 2: little bit as well. Take an example of what Tom 761 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 2: Brady did when he wanted the football back from his 762 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 2: six hundredth career touchdown pass. He gave that fan a 763 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 2: bitcoin at the time was worth over sixty thousand dollars. 764 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 2: It fell dramatically. Now it's backed up. And if I were, 765 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 2: show hey Otani, and maybe he'll still do this right 766 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 2: because he will see this woman. On April twelfth, the Dodgers, 767 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 2: remember this offseason, handed out new contracts worth one point 768 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 2: three billion dollars billion dollars new contracts, including show Hey 769 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 2: seven hundred million. If I'm show Hey Otani, knowing that 770 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 2: this market value for the ball would be let's say 771 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,439 Speaker 2: one hundred thousand dollars, I say, I'll tell you what first, 772 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 2: so I really appreciate it. I'm glad you're a fan. 773 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 2: I'm happy we could do this for you and your husband. 774 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 2: I'd like to give you fifty thousand dollars. I like 775 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 2: to give you fifty thousand dollars. That's what I would do. 776 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 2: I mean, very similar with Tom Brady. Didn't have to 777 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 2: give this guy a bitcoin that was worth over sixty 778 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 2: thousand dollars for a football, but he did because he could, 779 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 2: and so Hey could. And you talk about positive pr yes, 780 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 2: and fifty thousand is not going to break the bank 781 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 2: on show. Hey Otani, now that he's gotten rid of 782 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 2: his dirty allegedly anyway, I mean, you want to go 783 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 2: over the top. And this is the one thing about 784 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 2: the Dodgers why they've been such a successful organization over 785 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 2: the years. They get PR, they really do. Yeah, you 786 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 2: think that's a good idea. 787 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 4: It needs to happen one percent, just because he is 788 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 4: the one kind of getting dragged, like literally, it's just 789 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,919 Speaker 4: one thing after the other, like the whole thing. 790 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 3: About meeting her but not really meeting her that was 791 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,840 Speaker 3: so bad. He unfortunately is being dragged. 792 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 4: And also, like you just said, how much money did 793 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 4: the Dodgers spend in the off season, So it's. 794 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 3: Everybody's like this cheap organization. 795 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 4: Like, so the PR right now is damage control, And 796 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 4: I agree, I think he should do that because, like 797 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 4: you said. 798 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 3: Fifty grand is nothing for him. For her and her husband, 799 00:39:57,239 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 3: I bet you it would be just huge, yes, so. 800 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 2: I'm at the headline would be tremendous. 801 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 3: Yes, And. 802 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 2: So he needs that right now. So we'll see what happens. 803 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, when I spoke to her, she was very nice. 804 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 2: Her husband was sort of sitting off camera, and he 805 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,440 Speaker 2: wasn't goading her on. She was just telling the story. Yeah, 806 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 2: And I said, I can understand. But after I finished 807 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 2: that story, I said, did they just revoke my credential 808 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 2: for that story? I'm sorry. I didn't have a credential 809 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,959 Speaker 2: this year, so I was okay. But by the way, 810 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 2: now they say, moving forward though, they will be thinking 811 00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 2: about these, you know, very valuable collectibles and what they'll 812 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,719 Speaker 2: do in the future. And by the way, this has 813 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 2: happened to other people around Major League Baseball, so it 814 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 2: could be a big change, all right. Coming up on 815 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: the other side, we get back to the big story 816 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 2: of the day, the launch of the men's Final Four. 817 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Saturday, rolling along here on another 818 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 2: busy sports Saturday.

Again. 825 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 2: NC State comes in tied for the lowest seed ever 826 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 2: to get to the Final four an eleven seed. By 827 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: the way, last time that happened was my UCLA Bruins 828 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 2: a few years ago. They also had the most losses 829 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 2: ever by a team that made the Final four, fourteen losses. 830 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 2: This was an NC State team that went into the 831 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 2: ACC Tournament. They were not on the bubble. They were 832 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,920 Speaker 2: not a bubble team. They were like done. They had 833 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 2: lost their last four regular season games. They obviously faced 834 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 2: an uphill climb, knowing that if we have any chance, 835 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 2: we got to win the ACC Tournament, which seemed impossible. 836 00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 2: And yet they beat both Duke and North Carolina when 837 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 2: five games and five nights, matching what Yukon did back 838 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 2: in twenty eleven with Kemba Walker, where they were a 839 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 2: bubble team and won five games in five nights to 840 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 2: win the Big East title, and the momentum carried over 841 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 2: and they ended up winning a national championship. So I'm 842 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 2: not counting out NC State in this game, yet, not 843 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 2: at all. 844 00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 4: They've won what nine in a row, now nine in 845 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 4: a row, and I'm looking here at the stats. In 846 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:25,160 Speaker 4: the first half, Purdue has only taken four free throws 847 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 4: so they are keeping the fouls down, which is usually 848 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 4: the issue with Zach Edy that you know, people have 849 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 4: a hard time guarding him. 850 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,960 Speaker 3: But only four free throws for Purdue in the first half. 851 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 4: So the thing is though they are out rebounding the 852 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 4: wolf Pack twenty one to twelve in the first half. 853 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that big one is that is that's a big 854 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 2: difference there. 855 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 3: And actually six points. 856 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 2: Like you said, well, they're not shooting the ball great, 857 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 2: but neither is NC State. Yeah. In fact, NC State 858 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 2: hasn't even attempted a free throw in this game. But 859 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 2: they're hanging in. And DJ Burns, of course juniors been 860 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 2: the big star for this team. The big guy, I 861 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,240 Speaker 2: mean big guy. Yeah, he has four points at halftime, 862 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 2: so he hasn't done anything. So honestly, if you if 863 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,880 Speaker 2: you were to throw out the numbers, DJ Hornet has 864 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 2: had a nice first half with thirteen points, eighty fourteen points, 865 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 2: eight rebounds. And again, every time I watch Zach Edy, 866 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 2: I understand he moves like a glacier. I mean, the 867 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 2: guy he is painfully slow, really is, but he's insanely 868 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 2: big and cospective. I don't understand, I get it. I mean, 869 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 2: in this day and age, you expect your seven footers 870 00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 2: to shoot like their six foot guards from the three 871 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 2: point land. I'm not sure why. If you've got four 872 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 2: guys standing at the three point line line, why not 873 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 2: keep your big man inside. Most likely he's gonna have 874 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 2: one on one coverage, and that's that's a problem when 875 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 2: you're going against a seven foot four guy like Zach Eating. 876 00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: No matter how slow he moves, he's really developed his 877 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:05,439 Speaker 2: post game effectively. I just think again, a team would 878 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 2: have to commit themselves to doing something with him, and 879 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 2: I think they would be rewarded if they gave him 880 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 2: that opportunity. 881 00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, especially because we see not the same Nicola. I'm 882 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 4: not saying they're the same, but Nicola Yokich is also 883 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 4: a slower moving player. Yes, he can shoot the three, 884 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,919 Speaker 4: he can do it all. But seeing that it's like Zach, 885 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 4: there could be a place for Zach Eaty. There really 886 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 4: could be, and especially if you find a way to 887 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 4: fit him into your system and develop him a little 888 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 4: bit further. But I think he's making a case for 889 00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 4: himself this whole tournament. Like he moves slow, but he's 890 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 4: still effective and teams have not found a way to 891 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 4: stop him. They have not found a way yet. 892 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 2: Well, Jokic doesn't move fast, No he doesn't. 893 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 3: No, he doesn't. 894 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 2: But you know the thing about Nicola Jokic when you 895 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 2: watch him, obviously he can knock down three. Yeah, exactly, 896 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 2: And that's a big difference when them Zach Eatie. But 897 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,439 Speaker 2: when you see him around the basket, he doesn't miss No, 898 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 2: he has this easing sense of where he is on 899 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 2: the court, where the basketball is. It's because so many 900 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 2: times we see these bigs get the ball down low 901 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 2: and blow layups. You're like, how how is a seven 902 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 2: foot or blowing a layup like that? You know doesn't 903 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 2: blow layups. Jokic he knows exactly where he is. And 904 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 2: I get that sense with Edie that he has a 905 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 2: similar idea of proximity. It could be effective for you. 906 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 4: Jokic relies on technique and fundamentals, yes, something that a 907 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:30,240 Speaker 4: lot of players. 908 00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 2: Lack, right, and the reason he was the second round pick. 909 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 2: All they saw was a big, slow, white guy. 910 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 3: That's it. 911 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 4: Yet so effective and if Zach Edy can come into 912 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 4: the NBA with the right technique and fundamentals, it was 913 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 4: the Greg Popovich was saying that with these you guys 914 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 4: coming in. They're starting from the beginning, teaching them the 915 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 4: basics because so many of them have lost it along 916 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 4: the way because basketball people think you have to be flashy, 917 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 4: that you have to score the way stuff, And it's like, no, 918 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 4: not everyone is a stuff great. In fact, he is 919 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 4: an outlaw. You should not be trying to be stuff, Curt. 920 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 4: You should be trying to do what Nikola Jokic does 921 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:08,840 Speaker 4: the fundamentals. Another player not as slow Kawhi Leonard. Kawhi 922 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 4: Leonard literally does the basic movements, don't stop your dribble, 923 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 4: back in, look around the most basic movements and can 924 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:18,360 Speaker 4: score whenever he wants. 925 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you don't. I always go back to. 926 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:24,320 Speaker 1: T J. 927 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 2: Huschman Zada, Yeah, talking about wide receivers and forty times, 928 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 2: and he says, it's not how fast you can run, 929 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 2: it's how fast you can stop because you have to 930 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:40,840 Speaker 2: get separation, and so it's not about how quickly you're moving. 931 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 2: It's like, are your moves effective? Are you moving in 932 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 2: an effective manner to make a pass to get the 933 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 2: best shot possible. That's how you should be judged on 934 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 2: your quickness. It's how you're thinking on the court. I 935 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,320 Speaker 2: mean I can go over a littany of great players 936 00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 2: of the past. One of my favorite stories. Way back 937 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,960 Speaker 2: in the day, UCLA had a backup center named Mark Eaton. 938 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,879 Speaker 2: He never got off the bench. He was seven foot four. 939 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:09,279 Speaker 2: He had been an auto mechanic, and somebody met him 940 00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:12,479 Speaker 2: like do you play basketball, and like, no, you don't play, 941 00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 2: And so they rolled him in like a JC, and 942 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,359 Speaker 2: UCLA decided, what the heck, you know, we'll give him 943 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 2: a He never got on the floor, so you're like, 944 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 2: all right, it's over. The Utah Jazz looked at this 945 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 2: guy saying, you know, the one thing we can't teach 946 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 2: is size and height. He was not just seven to four, 947 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 2: but he was like, you know, two nights like Zachie. 948 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 2: He built like that. And so they said, all right, 949 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 2: here's what we want you to do. Mark. Now, this 950 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 2: is again a different NBA when there was interior play. Basically, 951 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,919 Speaker 2: we just need you to hold your hands in the eye. Yeah, yep, 952 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 2: And the next thing you know, he's blocking five shots 953 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 2: a game. He ended up becoming a two time NBA 954 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 2: Defensive Player of the Year, the late great Mark Eaton. 955 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 2: So they figured it out. So, I mean, I know, 956 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 2: the game's different now, I get all that, and you 957 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 2: expect your bigs to shoot lights out from three point land. 958 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,480 Speaker 2: Most of them don't. But yeah, I mean, I'm watching 959 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 2: this guy. And the thing about Zach Eaty that has 960 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:05,240 Speaker 2: impressed me in his years of Purdue is he's gotten 961 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 2: better each year. Yep. There's a commitment to getting better. 962 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 2: That's a big part of it. 963 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 4: And for being a big guy that constantly gets fouled, 964 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 4: he shoots the ball all from the free throw. 965 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:17,759 Speaker 2: Line, not bad, not bad, better than Shack. 966 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 4: Better than Shaq, And it's something you know if you're 967 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 4: going to do the hack a shack on him, which 968 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 4: it happens, because again, nobody has found a way to 969 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,440 Speaker 4: figure out how to stop him effectively because he is 970 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 4: so big. But I agree, I don't see how he doesn't. 971 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 4: He's not garnering more attention. 972 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,720 Speaker 2: So this second game is Alabama and Yukon. Of course, 973 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 2: we've been talking about this Yukon team. They've won ten 974 00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 2: straight NCAA Tournament games after winning the championship last year, 975 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 2: four to oh this year, and they've won every game 976 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 2: by at least thirteen points. Yeah, what makes this at 977 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:53,120 Speaker 2: least semi interesting? In this matchup against Alabama is there 978 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:58,720 Speaker 2: are three hundred and sixty two Division one college basketball teams. 979 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 2: On the men's side, Alabama ranks first in the nation 980 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 2: in scoring and three hundred and fifty six in points 981 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 2: given up, So they they're just there to try to 982 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 2: outscore you. And when you say do they have a 983 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 2: puncher's chance, a team like Alabama has a puncher's chance 984 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 2: if they just shoot lights out. It's possible. Yeah, likely, 985 00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 2: very unlikely as well as Yukon is playing right now. 986 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 2: In fact, if Yukon plays this up and down game 987 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 2: with Alabama and shoots well, this could be a historic 988 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 2: blowout in favor of Yukon. But on any given night, 989 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 2: you never know. 990 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,799 Speaker 4: It's called March Madness for a reason. It's not a 991 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:45,440 Speaker 4: series one game. And like you, just if Alabama shoots 992 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,640 Speaker 4: the lights on, and let's just hypothetically say Yukon has 993 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,439 Speaker 4: a bad shooting night, that's it one. 994 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 3: Game, one game. 995 00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 4: But I like you said, it's a far, far fetch 996 00:49:55,960 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 4: shot because Yukon has just dominated every single team that 997 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 4: they've played. 998 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 2: And some people are trying to put down Yukon is 999 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 2: the greatest of all. I mean, I'm like, come. 1000 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 4: On, well, no, let's not get right right now, Yes, 1001 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 4: right now, And they have won every game by double digits. 1002 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 4: They do look like the most complete team, which we 1003 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 4: have been saying for the last couple of weeks. 1004 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 3: But like you sung, you know, lightning in a bottle, 1005 00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:22,760 Speaker 3: it could happen. 1006 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 2: So is it just me or is this Men's Final 1007 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 2: Four taking a backseat to the women? 1008 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 4: Of course it is exactly. 1009 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 2: It's like not even close. 1010 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:32,280 Speaker 3: But it's not that it's not even close. 1011 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,800 Speaker 2: I just think the Stu Clark is a much bigger 1012 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:35,919 Speaker 2: star than Zach Edie. 1013 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,840 Speaker 4: Yes, but Zach, people are still tuning, and it's not 1014 00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:42,440 Speaker 4: that they're not touning, and it's just people are wanting 1015 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:43,720 Speaker 4: to see Kitlyn Clark. 1016 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,879 Speaker 3: And I think. 1017 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,399 Speaker 4: The discussion of Goat with Kitlyn Clark, there's a lot 1018 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 4: of people who don't like her and want to watch it. 1019 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 2: Why they don't like her? For what reason? 1020 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 3: You know, I don't know. Did you hear Diana Tarassi 1021 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:00,680 Speaker 3: last night? 1022 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,279 Speaker 4: She's a yukon right, But the whole thing about like 1023 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 4: her getting to the league, reality is going to check in, Okay. 1024 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,719 Speaker 2: Diana Tarassi has played in the WNBA for like forty years. 1025 00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:15,360 Speaker 2: She and Sue byrd have been in the way forever. Yes, 1026 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,879 Speaker 2: and I get it, okay, And a lot of people 1027 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:22,720 Speaker 2: would say again, when if you're basing your term goat 1028 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 2: on the best resume. This gets back to the Michael 1029 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 2: Jordan Lebron James situation. Lebron has more, Yes, played longer. Yes, 1030 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 2: he has bigger numbers than Michael Jordan. And if you 1031 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 2: go by the numbers, then yeah, he is the goat. 1032 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 2: He's on the goat. He has four championships and Michael 1033 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 2: lit six. But this is the thing about like the 1034 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 2: Diana Tarassi. I mean, she has the biggest numbers, yes, 1035 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 2: in women's basketball. So the idea of her being supplanted 1036 00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 2: because a lot of people have termed Tarossi even if 1037 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 2: she wasn't the best player, she wasn't better than Cheryl 1038 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:05,399 Speaker 2: Miller or Candice Parker in their heyday, but her overall 1039 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,359 Speaker 2: numbers put her at the top. And now you're telling me, 1040 00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 2: like this girl who has even played in the WNBA 1041 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 2: has like surpassed me. I can understand why she might 1042 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 2: be a little upset. 1043 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:19,319 Speaker 4: And I think it's a natural form of jealousy, not 1044 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 4: just not just because of the attention she's getting. When 1045 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 4: Dina Tarossi might feel like. 1046 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,760 Speaker 3: I am better? How did I not get this attention? 1047 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,399 Speaker 4: But also nil money, like knowing that Diana Tarossi has 1048 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 4: had to go play overseas to make money. Here she's 1049 00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:35,919 Speaker 4: looking at this young college girl who has probably made 1050 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 4: more money already in her lifetime than Diana Tarossi has. Like, 1051 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 4: and it's not just sanat Rossi. I'm just using her 1052 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 4: as an example. I think she's great, I love her. 1053 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 4: I think it's a natural just jealousy feeling amongst some 1054 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 4: of the WNBA players. 1055 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,319 Speaker 2: Well, she's making a lot more money than I say, Like, 1056 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 2: how do you know? That's what we're talking about, jealousy? 1057 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 2: So you know, we talked about ice Cube and it's 1058 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,400 Speaker 2: three on three leagues another good point five million dollars. 1059 00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:00,400 Speaker 2: You know what those guys make, They make like seventy 1060 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:03,879 Speaker 2: thousand dollars each. You don't think they would destroy her 1061 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 2: with her making five million dollars when they're making less 1062 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 2: than one hundred thousand playing in the same league. 1063 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 4: Since I'm saying, this girl's got haters, but the haters she. 1064 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 2: Going away another year at Iowa. 1065 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 3: No, she shouldn't do that. 1066 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 2: She shouldn't do that if they lose tomorrow to a 1067 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 2: better South Carolina team, if they lose, we just we 1068 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 2: gave every reason why she should stay. No, but she 1069 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 2: makes more money. 1070 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,800 Speaker 3: That way, understandably, so the money thing. 1071 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:33,640 Speaker 2: But it's what is she game? By getting to the WNBA, 1072 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:36,839 Speaker 2: she will disappear like all the stars have disappeared. I 1073 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 2: just remember when Candas Parker came out of Tennessee. I'm 1074 00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:42,799 Speaker 2: looking at her. I'm like, if she can't sell this league, 1075 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:43,359 Speaker 2: no one can. 1076 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,799 Speaker 4: I think the thing is that you want to go 1077 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 4: off on a high note. Like imagine she comes back 1078 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:52,759 Speaker 4: to Iowa and like, knock on fake wood because I 1079 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 4: don't have any wood around me. But I'm as she 1080 00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 4: goes back to Iowa and gets hurt and then doesn't 1081 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:00,200 Speaker 4: end the season on such like wrap it up? What 1082 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,359 Speaker 4: a great I know she might not win, but wrap 1083 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 4: it up. What a great way to end your college career. 1084 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,879 Speaker 4: And I feel like I a couple of months ago, 1085 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 4: I was like I would it would be a very 1086 00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:13,280 Speaker 4: hard decision for me to wrap up my college career, 1087 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:15,319 Speaker 4: especially when you're on a high like this. 1088 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 3: But I think that's how you want to go. You 1089 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:18,840 Speaker 3: want to go on a high. 1090 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:21,319 Speaker 2: I would ask this question to anybody out there that 1091 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 2: normally does not watch any women's basketball, but you're watching Caitlin. 1092 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 3: Clark, even though you may hate her. 1093 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 2: Has watching Caitlyn Clark change your mindset about women's basketball 1094 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:36,840 Speaker 2: in general and you now have a great anticipation of 1095 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:41,879 Speaker 2: the next WNBA season. Is any anybody that just, you know, 1096 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 2: sort of jumped on the bandwagon with Caitlyn Clark saying themselves, 1097 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,839 Speaker 2: I like what I see beyond just Caitlin Clark, and 1098 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 2: I want to sample more. And I've never given a 1099 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:54,000 Speaker 2: WNBA a look. They've been around forever, twenty five years 1100 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 2: of losing money. You gotta start watching the WNBA. I 1101 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,279 Speaker 2: don't think there's a lot of people that's like, oh yeah, yeah, 1102 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:01,080 Speaker 2: sign me up. 1103 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 4: So I think the problem with the WNBA has been 1104 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,320 Speaker 4: that there's been no storylines that people want to follow. 1105 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 4: There's no rivalries, there's no drama like in the NBA. 1106 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 4: Anytime Dylan Brooks plays Lebron James, you're gonna tune in 1107 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 4: because you want to know what Dylan Brooks is gonna do. Right, 1108 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:19,879 Speaker 4: there's no big storylines to follow up until this year, 1109 00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,760 Speaker 4: especially now that Angel Reese has declared for the draft. 1110 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 4: For the WNBA Draft, she and Caitlin are a storyline 1111 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:28,960 Speaker 4: like whether you put them? 1112 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 2: How long does that last? 1113 00:55:31,239 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 4: And that's the real question, right, is this gonna sustain 1114 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,959 Speaker 4: longer than maybe a season or two, that's the real question. 1115 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 4: I don't know, but I think for this coming season 1116 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 4: you are getting a storyline where people are going to 1117 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:42,840 Speaker 4: want to follow. 1118 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 3: I just don't know how long that's gonna last. 1119 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 2: All right, coming up on the other side of a 1120 00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,440 Speaker 2: sport that actually is maybe getting a little lost in 1121 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 2: the shuffle. We'll get to that. By the way. Just 1122 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 2: like in basketball, it says that a successful game plan 1123 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 2: starts with the right players. The team attractor supply brings 1124 00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 2: hustle and hard and that's what really sets them apart. 1125 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 2: So lace up your sneakers, make the winning play by 1126 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:08,879 Speaker 2: heading to your local Tractors supply store.

Oh, this 1188 00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 2: is my annual let's rip the Naysmith Basketball Hall of 1189 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: Fame again. So among the inductees this year, remember last year, 1190 00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 2: we I like Dwayne Wade. We had some big names 1191 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 2: last year, Dirk Novitzky, you know, some obvious Hall of famers. 1192 00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 2: Tony Parker went in last year, Palcasol. So those were four, 1193 00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 2: you know, qualified first ballot Hall of famers. We had 1194 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:22,840 Speaker 2: one first ballot Hall of Famer this year, Vince Carter. 1195 00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 3: Who knew he was going to bring him up. 1196 00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 2: Vince played a long time. In fact, he played more 1197 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 2: years than any player in the history of the NBA played. 1198 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 2: He twenty two. He was an All Star for eight years, 1199 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 2: and then those last fourteen years not so much. He 1200 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 2: was more of a compiler at that point. But then 1201 00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:41,120 Speaker 2: you got Chauncey Billups. I'm a big Johncey Billups fan. 1202 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:43,400 Speaker 2: I always thought he was a little bit underrated. 1203 00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:44,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm mister big shot. 1204 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 2: So he was good. Now I'm lifelong Laker fan. I'm 1205 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 2: very excited that Michael Cooper made the Hall of Fame. Coop, 1206 00:59:51,080 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 2: you know he was the deaf. If Larry Bird calls 1207 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:56,440 Speaker 2: you the best defensive player he ever went against, that 1208 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 2: should be good enough. And then Walter Davis who passed 1209 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 2: away last year, great Phoenix Suns player, right, And that's 1210 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,919 Speaker 2: fine if this was just the NBA Hall of Fame. 1211 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 2: So another inductee this year was Charles Smith. I'm like 1212 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 2: the former Nick made the Hall of Fame. No, this 1213 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 2: is the Charles Smith that has been a high school 1214 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 2: basketball coach in Louisiana. That's right. Part of this year's 1215 01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame class on the same level as Jordan 1216 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 2: and Wilt is Charles Smith, who has been a high 1217 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 2: school basketball coach in the state of Louisiana his whole career. 1218 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 2: Never been a college coach, never been a pro coach, 1219 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 2: a high school coach, who's in the same Hall of 1220 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 2: Fame as Michael Jordan. Now, he seems like a wonderful 1221 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 2: manison interview with him. He's had nine state championships. That's great. 1222 01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:52,480 Speaker 2: Here's what I just don't understand. There is actually a 1223 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 2: separate women's basketball Hall of Fame. There is a separate 1224 01:00:56,920 --> 01:01:01,120 Speaker 2: International Basketball Hall of Fame. There is a separate college 1225 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,840 Speaker 2: basketball Hall of Fame. You know what there is not 1226 01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:07,960 Speaker 2: is an NBA Hall of Fame. How's that possible? 1227 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like they've dropped the ball. That's an 1228 01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:12,080 Speaker 4: easy one to do too. 1229 01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 2: I I don't get it. Why does why? Why don't 1230 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,680 Speaker 2: we have a separate NBA Hall of Fame? 1231 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 7: David Stern at this point, if he was still alive 1232 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 7: and he was still commissioner, would have made that happen. 1233 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 2: I don't understand this at all. Doug Collins made the 1234 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame today as a contributor. Doug Collins, who 1235 01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 2: got fired by the Bulls and replaced by Phil Jackson. 1236 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,400 Speaker 2: He's a commentator on He's a Hall of Famer. Wasn't 1237 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 2: he a Wizard's coach for ye? But he's not in 1238 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,240 Speaker 2: as a coach. They put him in as a contributor. 1239 01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:54,600 Speaker 2: Hmm Okay. Like, I don't get it. It's it's it's 1240 01:01:54,720 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 2: it's maddening to me because I'm an NBA fan and 1241 01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 2: I've said this money times.

So I believe 1274 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 2: he averaged fourteen points. Again, but that was a lot 1275 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:31,600 Speaker 2: of points per game.

Yeah, looking 1307 01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:54,200 Speaker 2: forward to that. 1308 01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 7: And the winner, of course of this game perdue at 1309 01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 7: NCY State, will take on the winner of our next game, 1310 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:02,000 Speaker 7: which be Alabama and Yukon. And then in the NBA, 1311 01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 7: the Lakers came up with a win. They blew a 1312 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 7: sixteen point lead in the second half, only to come 1313 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:10,600 Speaker 7: back and finish strong one to sixteen to ninety seven. 1314 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 7: Major League Baseball quickly the Dodgers come up with a 1315 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 7: four to one win against the Cubs on the road. 1316 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:20,360 Speaker 7: Max Munsey had an RBI single in that one. Cardinals 1317 01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 7: over the Marlins three to one, Phillies flustered the Nationals 1318 01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:28,080 Speaker 7: five to two, the Reds ridicule the Mets nine to six. 1319 01:05:28,240 --> 01:05:31,080 Speaker 7: The Mets are two and six on the year. That's 1320 01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:33,200 Speaker 7: usually par for the course for them at this stage 1321 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,280 Speaker 7: of the season. The Athletics are four to nothing winners 1322 01:05:36,320 --> 01:05:38,480 Speaker 7: against the Tigers. And then just a few mentions from 1323 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,080 Speaker 7: games that are going on right now, four to four, 1324 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:44,439 Speaker 7: Orioles and Pirates in the bottom of the eleventh. Those 1325 01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:48,320 Speaker 7: are two winning teams Astros and Rangers without a run 1326 01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:51,240 Speaker 7: into the second inning. Yankee strike first with a three 1327 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 7: to nothing lead against the Blue Jays in the bottom 1328 01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,600 Speaker 7: of the first, and we do have the Diamondbacks two, 1329 01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:01,360 Speaker 7: the Braves nothing in the top the first, and the 1330 01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 7: Diamondbacks have bases loaded with no outs looking to add 1331 01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:07,760 Speaker 7: on to that lead of Theirs. And speaking of the Diamondbacks, 1332 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 7: reports are saying that Brave's pitcher are speaking of the 1333 01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 7: brave excuse me, Braves pitcher Spencer Stryder was diagnosed with 1334 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 7: UCL damage following the MRI. So we've seen Steven Montsei. 1335 01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:24,120 Speaker 7: A lot of these marquee pitchers, big brand names in 1336 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:27,480 Speaker 7: Major League Baseball come down with some significant injuries. 1337 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 2: Well they're they're talking about the pitch clock. Yeah, and 1338 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 2: so whether the pitch clock is causing more pitchers they 1339 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 2: have arm problems, but the data doesn't back it up. 1340 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 2: They're trying to come up with some reason why so 1341 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,600 Speaker 2: many top pitchers, starting pitchers mainly, are coming up with 1342 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 2: arm problems. It really is. I've said this before in 1343 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 2: my conversations with you know, old school pitchers. He used 1344 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 2: to throw on three days rest and complete games constantly, 1345 01:06:58,680 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 2: three hundred innings a year. How did you do it? 1346 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 2: And they said the more they threw, the stronger their 1347 01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 2: arm got. Not the opposite. It wasn't about arm fatigue. 1348 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 2: It was about arm strength and the idea of pacing 1349 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 2: yourself as well. Instead of the idea that you just 1350 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 2: tell every picture that comes into a game, throw as 1351 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 2: hard as you can for as long as you can. Well, 1352 01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 2: I mean, if you're going to force every guy to 1353 01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 2: throw as hard as they can, I'm guessing that's going 1354 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:32,640 Speaker 2: to lead to arm problems. Forget the clock. It's what 1355 01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:36,440 Speaker 2: you're asking of your pitchers. To do. So, I mean, 1356 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 2: I like the pitch clock. I'm old school, but I 1357 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,440 Speaker 2: think it's been a huge plus from Major League Baseball 1358 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:43,720 Speaker 2: shortening those games. 1359 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, And I think it's not the pitch clock. 1360 01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:48,920 Speaker 4: I mean, maybe a slight factor, but I do agree 1361 01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:53,360 Speaker 4: that I think it's this the analytics of baseball, where 1362 01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:56,880 Speaker 4: your muscle is not getting as strong as it could 1363 01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,560 Speaker 4: with you pushing the limits every time. It's like somebody 1364 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:02,280 Speaker 4: who wants to run a marathon. You push it every 1365 01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:04,440 Speaker 4: week a little bit more, a little bit more, so 1366 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 4: you don't hold back because you're like, oh no, I 1367 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:07,320 Speaker 4: can't do too much this week. 1368 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:07,960 Speaker 3: I got a hold back. 1369 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 4: Every week you push a little bit more and you 1370 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 4: go further so that you can build that endurance that's 1371 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,480 Speaker 4: staminato that muscle. And when you don't do that, and 1372 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:17,679 Speaker 4: now we got like younger kids that are being put 1373 01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,719 Speaker 4: on pitch counts. So then they get to you know, college, 1374 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 4: they get to the pros, and they're already being coddled 1375 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 4: like the arm can't be pushed. 1376 01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:26,559 Speaker 3: That's not good. 1377 01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 2: Well, here's the solution, Monsi and Steve. 1378 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:29,679 Speaker 3: You have one. 1379 01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I do, oh good. 1380 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,280 Speaker 7: As soon as if you're alrighty, in your right hander, 1381 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:36,799 Speaker 7: as soon as that arm gets tired, just start. 1382 01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 2: Throwing with your left arm. 1383 01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 3: Great, that is a good idea. 1384 01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:41,080 Speaker 2: Which fits all the solutions. 1385 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:42,000 Speaker 3: Al Rob Manford. 1386 01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. I had a conversation once with the legend himself, 1387 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 2: Nolan Ryan. He had a game fairly early in his 1388 01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 2: career with the Angels where he threw two hundred and 1389 01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 2: thirty five pitches in a game. One game, one game, 1390 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 2: he threw two hundred and thirty five pitches. This was 1391 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:07,759 Speaker 2: nineteen seventy four. Nineteen years later, he was still pitching 1392 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:12,559 Speaker 2: in the majors. Yeah, still throwing ninety five plus. You 1393 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:15,080 Speaker 2: would think, I mean nowadays, if you had a pitcher 1394 01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:17,200 Speaker 2: out there throw two hundred and thirty five pitches in 1395 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 2: one game, you would be arrested. 1396 01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 3: Another arm would fall off. 1397 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 2: In one game he threw two hundred and thirty five 1398 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:27,160 Speaker 2: pitches and was still pitching at a high level nineteen 1399 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:27,720 Speaker 2: years later. 1400 01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,160 Speaker 3: What was it nine innings or did it go to extra? 1401 01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 2: Was an X rayin game? 1402 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:31,960 Speaker 3: How many Indians? 1403 01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 2: I don't, I don't think. But he threw two hundred 1404 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:39,559 Speaker 2: and thirty five in one game. Yeah, and he would 1405 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,640 Speaker 2: throw hard, yeah. 1406 01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, and especially what's even more frustrating, right, is when 1407 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,600 Speaker 4: you're watching a pitcher who was like doing well and 1408 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:48,639 Speaker 4: then they get taken out. 1409 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 3: Oh no, you hit pitch eighty seven. 1410 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:51,760 Speaker 4: Now you get out. 1411 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:53,639 Speaker 3: But I've been doing what you're talking about. 1412 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:56,679 Speaker 2: Okay, struck him out. Here was the deal was June fourteenth, 1413 01:09:56,760 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 2: nineteen seventy four. Oh good, he was pitching with the Angels. 1414 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:03,639 Speaker 2: He he struck out nineteen Red Sox. He won thirteen innings. 1415 01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:06,320 Speaker 2: The game, by the way, went fifteen. He had he 1416 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:10,320 Speaker 2: got no decision for this, and he threw two hundred 1417 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:16,559 Speaker 2: and thirty five pitches in that one game. Wow, Wow, 1418 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,760 Speaker 2: where were you on that day? I was in high school. 1419 01:10:20,760 --> 01:10:22,880 Speaker 2: I was watching this, by the way. On the other side, 1420 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 2: Louis Tiant was pitching for the Red Sox. He actually 1421 01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 2: pitched fourteen innings in that game. He went into the 1422 01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:31,799 Speaker 2: fifteenth inning. And by the way, he was still pitching 1423 01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:33,639 Speaker 2: great for many years after that as well. 1424 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,639 Speaker 3: So we're being too logical here. 1425 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:39,960 Speaker 2: Well, they just coming up with excuse after excuse, and 1426 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:42,920 Speaker 2: now it's the pitchclock. Do not change the pitchclock. It's 1427 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 2: working for Major League Baseball. It cut the games down 1428 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:50,000 Speaker 2: by half an hour. That's huge. It works, all right, 1429 01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:52,559 Speaker 2: I gotta get that out. By the way, speaking of 1430 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,800 Speaker 2: the going back to the NBA, big win for the 1431 01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 2: Lakers today against Cleveland. Cleveland obviously one of the best 1432 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 2: teams in the East. The Lakers, at least in the moment, 1433 01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:05,760 Speaker 2: have crawled out of the ninth slot. They are now 1434 01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 2: half a game ahead of Sacramento in the eight slot. 1435 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:13,800 Speaker 2: They still have a long way to go because they're 1436 01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:15,639 Speaker 2: a game and a half out of the six slot. 1437 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:19,000 Speaker 2: That way you avoid the play in tournament. And they 1438 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,120 Speaker 2: only have four games left. So do the math the 1439 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 2: times running short. The Lakers have to win out. They 1440 01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:28,400 Speaker 2: cannot lose any games. And again, what this play in 1441 01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 2: does It puts a team like the Lakers in jeopardy. 1442 01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:34,400 Speaker 2: Remember this. If you have the old format and the 1443 01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:37,439 Speaker 2: Lakers get at number eight, they're in the playoffs. 1444 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Lakers with four games left. They have two 1445 01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 4: hard ones, one which a lot is going to matter 1446 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:47,120 Speaker 4: a lot against Golden State, Yes, Jossa Blayne, Minnesota. And 1447 01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:51,639 Speaker 4: then they have the Grizzlies, which they should they should win, yes. 1448 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:55,040 Speaker 4: And then they have the Pelicans that'll be another tough one. 1449 01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,320 Speaker 2: Well, the Pelicans are the team that's sitting in number. 1450 01:11:57,080 --> 01:11:58,680 Speaker 3: Seven, right, and they don't want to lose that. 1451 01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 2: No, I mean that have a bearing on who hosts 1452 01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:04,120 Speaker 2: that seven eight game in the play in a round. 1453 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,920 Speaker 2: But I'm not a fan of the playing I just not. 1454 01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:11,280 Speaker 2: I mean the argument that, well, like he's more teams 1455 01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:16,360 Speaker 2: in the conversation. Yeah, but potentially you could lose the Lakers. 1456 01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,639 Speaker 2: I mean, let's say Lakers get the eight seed, right 1457 01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 2: and they lose to the Pelicans on the road, then 1458 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:25,120 Speaker 2: they would have to play the winner of the nine 1459 01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,280 Speaker 2: to ten game, and what if that's the Warriors. 1460 01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:32,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, the league decided that they rather avoid tanking than 1461 01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:34,479 Speaker 4: have the best team in the playoffs. 1462 01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:37,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's till teams taking Utah Jazz have just lost 1463 01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:38,519 Speaker 2: eleven in a row. 1464 01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's what that's what their mentality was, all right. 1465 01:12:42,520 --> 01:12:45,400 Speaker 2: Up, quick update now, Purdue leading NC State by a 1466 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:48,439 Speaker 2: score of forty seven to thirty eight. Still more than 1467 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 2: ten minutes to go in this game. NC State got 1468 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 2: within six and then Perdue pulled away again. Are we 1469 01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:59,040 Speaker 2: going to get a Cinderella matchup in the NCAA Championship 1470 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,000 Speaker 2: game or the two to one seed's going to prevail 1471 01:13:01,360 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 2: right now, Purdue in control up nine ten minutes ago 1472 01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:08,519 Speaker 2: in the first half of their in the second half 1473 01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:11,439 Speaker 2: of their second half matchup. All right, I'm a little 1474 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 2: bit thrown off right now. I have to say just 1475 01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:17,639 Speaker 2: a little bit off. Well, I don't know, I got 1476 01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 2: a little I can't get the Women's Championship game out 1477 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,760 Speaker 2: of my mind. We're going to give our bold predictions 1478 01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:28,519 Speaker 2: what's going to happen tomorrow, because, let's face it, it's the 1479 01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 2: game people are talking about.

Do I eat after? 1509 01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:53,960 Speaker 2: Do I eat during? 1510 01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:54,639 Speaker 3: Durena? 1511 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:56,479 Speaker 9: So I kind of look at it like this. Now, 1512 01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:58,680 Speaker 9: I do eat during my shift because that's kind of 1513 01:14:58,720 --> 01:15:00,400 Speaker 9: my do time. And if I don't, I want I 1514 01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:02,000 Speaker 9: pick up food on my way home because I have 1515 01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:04,000 Speaker 9: to sleep and I can't do that if I'm hungry, 1516 01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:05,840 Speaker 9: So I gotta I gotta eat to give. 1517 01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 2: Like a big double cheeseburger I've gotten. 1518 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:12,000 Speaker 9: I've gone to McDonald's earlier. I get breakfast burritos. I've 1519 01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 9: had a lot of listeners giving me suggestions on where 1520 01:15:14,320 --> 01:15:15,639 Speaker 9: it us to go nice. 1521 01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 2: So, yeah, I guess that's a good question. What is 1522 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:23,240 Speaker 2: the one food you eat that immediately gets you sleepy? 1523 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's got to be big and fatty for me. 1524 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:25,639 Speaker 1: Man. 1525 01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 2: Well, last night I had I had a steak dinner. 1526 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:32,519 Speaker 2: It was a big birthday celebration for my daughter. I 1527 01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 2: won't talk about the bill on the air, but it 1528 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:37,240 Speaker 2: was well worth it. I mean I am of the 1529 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:41,200 Speaker 2: mindset Spaller that when it comes to food, if you 1530 01:15:41,240 --> 01:15:44,360 Speaker 2: get a high end steak that is perfectly prepared to 1531 01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 2: your liking, there's nothing like it worth every penny. I mean, 1532 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,479 Speaker 2: I mean, nothing's close. 1533 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 4: I mean listen, I have not had meat in like 1534 01:15:57,320 --> 01:15:59,760 Speaker 4: a decade. Yeah, but I will say that there is 1535 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 4: no substitute, you know. And I used to love a 1536 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,960 Speaker 4: rabbi a prime rib stop and my mouth is watering. 1537 01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 2: My son had a twenty two ounce bone in ribbi 1538 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:13,200 Speaker 2: last night. He was gnawing on the bone. 1539 01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:15,800 Speaker 9: You have to do that at the end, because that's because. 1540 01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:21,679 Speaker 2: So I had a bone in file at that was. Yeah, 1541 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 2: there's all the sides and everything. 1542 01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:26,280 Speaker 3: Oh man, yeah, it's it's definitely not replicated. 1543 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:26,720 Speaker 4: That's frue. 1544 01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:27,960 Speaker 8: You're making me hungry, Steve. 1545 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,240 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, but you wouldn't be hungry if you 1546 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:32,400 Speaker 2: saw the bill I paid so. 1547 01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:34,439 Speaker 5: Baller. 1548 01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:38,479 Speaker 2: Yes, but for my daughter's birthday, I don't care whatever 1549 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:41,440 Speaker 2: she wants, all right, So tomorrow we get this championship 1550 01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 2: game between Iowa and South Carolina. I was sharing a 1551 01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:48,280 Speaker 2: quick story with a little history lesson as I never 1552 01:16:48,280 --> 01:16:52,519 Speaker 2: stopped talking anyway, I was bringing up Oscar Robertson. Oscar 1553 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:56,400 Speaker 2: Robertson in the nineteen late nineteen fifties was basically the 1554 01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark of men's basketball. He led the nation in 1555 01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:01,479 Speaker 2: scoring all three years he was at Cincinnati. He was 1556 01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:03,320 Speaker 2: the player of the Year all three years, first team 1557 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 2: All American all three years, and in his junior and 1558 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:09,120 Speaker 2: senior he led the University of Cincinnati to the Final four, 1559 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:12,120 Speaker 2: and they lost to the same school in the semis 1560 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 2: both years. Cal Berkeley coached by the great Pete Newell. 1561 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:19,160 Speaker 2: The year after he left, you think, all right, well, 1562 01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,560 Speaker 2: the greatest player ever, as he was then deemed, is gone, 1563 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:25,640 Speaker 2: Cincinnati goes back to obscurity. They not only won the 1564 01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 2: national championship the year after he left, they won it 1565 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:31,479 Speaker 2: the next two years that he left, and even got 1566 01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 2: to the championship Game of the year after that and 1567 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:41,400 Speaker 2: lost in overtime. Also, remember this Peyton Manning when he 1568 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:44,400 Speaker 2: was a quarterback at Tennessee. Four years at Tennessee, they 1569 01:17:44,400 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 2: can never beat Florida. Danny Werfel owned him. So what 1570 01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:50,720 Speaker 2: are you year after he left Tennessee, they won the 1571 01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 2: national championship after he left. 1572 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:56,040 Speaker 3: So you're saying that's what's going to happen. 1573 01:17:56,160 --> 01:17:59,600 Speaker 2: I am predicting right now. If Iowa loses to South Carolina, 1574 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 2: what's the point spent on this? 1575 01:18:01,240 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 3: Six and a half? 1576 01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:03,720 Speaker 2: All right, So the game Cocks are six and a 1577 01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 2: half point. 1578 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 3: Favorites as of today. 1579 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:08,080 Speaker 2: And by the way, the record of the last two 1580 01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:09,439 Speaker 2: years is seventy three and one. 1581 01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:12,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that one was too Iowa. 1582 01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,880 Speaker 2: Iowa a little bit of revenge. But if Iowa does 1583 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:18,720 Speaker 2: lose tomorrow, they will win the national championship next year. 1584 01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 1585 01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:22,759 Speaker 2: If that happens now, God hurt her legacy. 1586 01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:27,280 Speaker 4: I think, I yeah, because I think there's she's just 1587 01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 4: getting so much positive and negative criticism, you know, and 1588 01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 4: I do think if she does not win, people are 1589 01:18:35,120 --> 01:18:36,600 Speaker 4: gonna be like, oh no, see, I told you so, 1590 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:40,639 Speaker 4: And especially if Iowa win's next year without her, that's. 1591 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:41,000 Speaker 3: Not gonna help. 1592 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:44,240 Speaker 2: Well, let me say that Peyton Manning's rep in college 1593 01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:47,160 Speaker 2: did not take a hit because Tennessee won, And the 1594 01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:49,280 Speaker 2: same thing with Oscar Robertson. I mean, at the time 1595 01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:51,920 Speaker 2: he had already done things that had never been done 1596 01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:55,920 Speaker 2: on the collegiate level. So their reps were not hurt. 1597 01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,360 Speaker 4: But tell me at the time, were they being talked 1598 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:03,240 Speaker 4: about to this level? Oh yes, absolutely and negative and positive? 1599 01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:05,679 Speaker 2: Well, I mean there's always haters when you're that good, 1600 01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:06,599 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. 1601 01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 4: But it's yeah, okay, okay, so they were they were 1602 01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:10,000 Speaker 4: going through the same thing. 1603 01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 2: Okay, right, I mean, but it's very similar. I mean, 1604 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:14,800 Speaker 2: where you're you're a dominant player, but you're not winning 1605 01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:15,560 Speaker 2: the champion. 1606 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:16,440 Speaker 3: You're not winning the championship. 1607 01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 2: Look, I just like I said, if we have a 1608 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,799 Speaker 2: repeat of what we saw yesterday with Iowan and Yukon, 1609 01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 2: forget the offensive ol, but a game that goes down 1610 01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:28,040 Speaker 2: to the wire, it's going to be a game winning 1611 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 2: we can see the new records as far as viewers 1612 01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:33,479 Speaker 2: of women's basketball, which is a really good thing. 1613 01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:36,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm super interested in the game because, like you said, 1614 01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:37,960 Speaker 4: a bit of a revenge game. 1615 01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:41,600 Speaker 3: Also, Caitlyn Clark just had a mediocre game, so I 1616 01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:42,880 Speaker 3: think she's gonna come out swinging. 1617 01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:45,719 Speaker 4: But at the same time, like you said, South Carolina 1618 01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,280 Speaker 4: wasn't prepared last year, how are they not going to 1619 01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 4: be prepared this year? 1620 01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:51,160 Speaker 2: Don Staley is a great coach, he's a Hall of 1621 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:52,920 Speaker 2: Fame Well, she was a Hall of Fame player. She'll 1622 01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:56,200 Speaker 2: be elected eventually again as a coach and a great 1623 01:19:56,280 --> 01:19:59,360 Speaker 2: run at South Carolina.
