Kentucky Derby returns to the first 13 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: Saturday in May, the one hundred forty seventh running for 14 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: the Roses Saturday May first on NBC. I was watching 15 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: the Rangers game yesterday just to hear natural crowd noise, 16 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: and you had a large crowd for the Rangers. It 17 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: was just it took me a while to get used 18 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 1: to it because I'm just used to hearing a little 19 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: bit of smattering or they have some piped in noise, 20 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: and I'm just I'm watching and listening like last year 21 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: we had to get used to nothing and now you're 22 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: hearing the crowd and it's just a little bit of 23 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: background noise. But it really helped with the game, like 24 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: it enhanced it. I just felt like I was leaning 25 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: in closer to the game while I was watching it. 26 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: Eight seven seven, three d P show. If you want 27 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 1: to dial us up our poll question for the final hour, McLevin. 28 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: I had a good time watching baseball last night. My 29 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: Phillies are playing Jacob to Gram and the Mets, and 30 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: they couldn't put a bat on Jacob to Gram for 31 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: six nings, scoreless. The Mets pull them and guess what happened? 32 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: They lose. Here you go, most picture wins lost by 33 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: a bullpen, so a ball since twenty fourteen, you have 34 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: to have five innings pitched and then you leave the 35 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: game with the lead and you don't get a win. 36 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 1: Jacob deGrom. This has happened to Jacob deGrom thirty one 37 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: times where he's left the game after five innings or 38 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: more with the lead and the bullpen failed. That's an 39 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: incredible stat. I mean, his ERA since twenty eighteen is 40 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: just over two easily the best in baseball. So it's 41 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: two point zero seven. The Mets bullpen is six point 42 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: one six ERA in de Gram's start starts. That's the 43 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: highest friendie pitcher. His ERA since twenty eighteen is two 44 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: point zero seven. Next closest is Justin Verlander two point 45 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:03,079 Speaker 1: five six, and then bullpen doesn't come to the rescue. 46 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: The ERA is six point one six in his starts 47 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: thirty first time in Jacob Dagram's career the bullpen blew 48 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: a win for him. Wow, yeah, man, you guys suck. Like, 49 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: how do you when you say to the bullpen or 50 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 1: what's the bullpen say to you? Is that one of 51 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: those where you see each other in the whole way 52 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: and you just kind of lower your head, You just 53 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: kind of look out or act like you're answering your 54 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: phone or something when Jagram comes by? Yeah, Paul, Okay. 55 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: Do you think they should tell the Mets of someone 56 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: else's pitching when they get in the lineup for like 57 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: the first ending so they get some run support. This 58 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: this isn't a trend anymore, right, It's I mean, it's 59 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: not like a fluke anymore. Do you think it's like 60 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: psychological where they know they have the best pitcher in 61 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: baseball and there's less pressure to put people on the base. 62 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: There has to be something to it. It's not a 63 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: coincidence anymore. It's a four year trend. Yeah, yeah, mclovin. 64 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: And there's one other player I noticed last night, your 65 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: guy Dustin May, who's like, what the fourth and fifth 66 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: start are you? He was under eight strikeouts, no runs allowed, 67 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: and he's They have Walker Bueller, Clayton Kershaw, and Trevor Baller. Yeah, 68 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: and they have this guy who throws that seems unfair. Yeah, 69 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: play in the past four years. Jacob de Gram is 70 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: just above a five hundred pitcher, ten and nine, eleven 71 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: and eight. By the way, he wons Cy Young both 72 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: of those seasons. Yeah, but his numbers, you're like a 73 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: ten winds pitcher. Why does he get the site? It's 74 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: just he's so dominant, he just doesn't have victories. Yeah, 75 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: mcclub is baseball slightly going to regret deadening the ball 76 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: because you're gonna have these guys like de Gram and 77 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: those Dodgers guys just mowing people down. I saw a 78 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: Peterelonzo hit under the warning track that seemed like it 79 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: would have gone out before. I don't know, I want 80 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: to see what the numbers are like for for an 81 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: entire season, and see, you know, once weather starts to 82 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: warm up, then you know, I think you're gonna see 83 00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: the ball carry a little bit more. Obviously, Aaron Rodgers 84 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: kind of looked like a kid on his first day 85 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: of school as a Jeopardy host. Had his hair hole 86 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: slid down, and he did a really good job, and 87 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: I could see why he'd want to throw his hat 88 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: into the ring there to replace Alex Trebek. You know, 89 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: the question on everybody's minding Green Bay is when will 90 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: Rogers feel like he's ready to move on to his 91 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: next job, because he's thirty seven years of age. He 92 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: just got engaged, and I can't remember him looking happier 93 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: for a guy who lost in dramatic fashion in the 94 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: NFC title Game. He looks happier than ever. He looked like, Hey, 95 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm on Jeopardy, I'm engaged, and he feels like he's 96 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: in a good place in his life. But I don't 97 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 1: know if he's a good place as a quarterback, because 98 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: I don't think he's there after next season. Maybe he is, 99 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: but you know what I was told a couple of 100 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: weeks ago by somebody in the know they would be 101 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: shocked if Aaron Ers is in green Bay after next season. 102 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: But now green Bay didn't know what was happening here. 103 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: I think green Bay was prepared for the eventual, you know, 104 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 1: fall off the ledge Aaron Rodgers, and then he won 105 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: the MVP. They draft Jordan Love. And for people who 106 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: actually think that Green Bay did this as a preemptive 107 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: strike to light of fire under Aaron Rodgers should have 108 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: to turn in their media credentials because why not draft 109 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: a quarterback this year? Get him fired up again? I 110 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: just draft quarterback every year, Gotta get him fired up. 111 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs better do that for Patrick Mahomes. Buccaneers 112 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: better do that for Buccaneers might draft a quarterback this year. 113 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: But well, can he do both? Yes? Do I think 114 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: that Aaron Rodgers wants to do both? I do. I 115 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: think that he could carve out in the offseason fifty 116 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: to sixty days to be able to do everything that 117 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: Jeopardy asked you to do, and that is you're gonna 118 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,239 Speaker 1: go there, You're gonna shoot five episodes and Alex Trebek 119 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: would go in like a couple of weeks together chunks 120 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: where you would do the entire month of shows knock 121 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 1: that out, you just but you know this would be 122 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: different for Aaron Rodgers because you know he has a 123 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: day job with the Packers, but in the off season, 124 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: if you carve out sixty days, sixty five days, he 125 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: can do that and he would get a good salary 126 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 1: there and be doing something that would challenge him. He'd 127 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: be replacing Alex Trebek the People, a person he has 128 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: had great admiration for, loves the show itself, was good 129 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: on the show as it contested, and I think he 130 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: has a certain you know style there. There's something about 131 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: when you see Aaron Rodgers on there, he has more 132 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: warm like Ken Jennings is just a smart guy. You 133 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: have to have I keep using the word gravitas, but 134 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: you have to that warmth. There has to be something 135 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: where people are tuning in and they like who you are. 136 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: Not boy, that guy knows all the answers, because Alex 137 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: famously would tell you, I don't know, I don't have 138 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: to know the answers. But Alex came off as you know, 139 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: able to answer most of these questions. But he said, 140 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know how I would do, but 141 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: I only have to know the answers to the show 142 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: that I'm working on, and then you go to the 143 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: next show and the next show. But it's just more 144 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 1: about He gave that impression of I know what this is, 145 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: and uh, if you don't know it, you should know it. 146 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: Then I'm going to call you out on it. And 147 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: I think Aaron Rodgers is capable of doing that. Yeah, 148 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: Alex had a great bedside manner when when a person 149 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: made a really easy mistake, like and it was obvious 150 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: that they should have had it, he got oh no, 151 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 1: but he would he wouldn't. He didn't. He didn't pile on. 152 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: He's what everyone's saying. No. Occasionally, yes, Alex would just 153 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: let you know. He didn't like when people missed sports questions. 154 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: You can find videos on YouTube where people would miss 155 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: easy sports questions. He'd like the Dallas Cowboys and you'd 156 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: see it. He didn't do it that often. M No. 157 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: This famous flex defense was introduced by Tom Landry in 158 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: the seventies and he said, dude, nothing, Oh who are 159 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: the Browns? Yes, there was a moment when you know, 160 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: when you meet the fan and you get that one 161 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: factoid about them. Aaron Rodgers had a guy goes I've 162 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: been to every province in Canada, including Manitoba, and Aaron 163 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 1: Rodgers goes, okay, I'll keep that in mind. It was 164 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: Have you ever had that where it was a little 165 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: factoid that you had nothing to go with? Well, you 166 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 1: usually know what you're going to ask the contestant. When 167 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: I did Sports Jeopardy, you, I had a card that 168 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: had a couple of things on there that I could 169 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: bring up to you. But at least I was prepared 170 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: for whatever your answer was going to be with whatever 171 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: question I might ask you. And you often put in 172 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: a joke in that section. I remember watching where you'd 173 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: always kind of say something funny. Well, I would try to, 174 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 1: but I was just trying to show warmth to the 175 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: audience there. Yes, it was always funny though. Alex would 176 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: be talking to the contestant says, I want the people 177 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: are really boring any So you, Jennifer clex Spoon, tell 178 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: me about that, and then oh yeah, yeah, Well Alex, 179 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: I've been doing it.

She cursed my life with three step children 209 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: named Star, RJ, and Ryan, and I have one rotten grandson. Yeah. No, 210 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: one day he came here. He just wanted to get 211 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: away from everywhere. I know you. That's good. That's good. 212 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: Old battle ax trapped in the loveless Mary. He's shutting 213 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: up van a White on the way to break. Yeah, 214 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 1: that dude is awesome. A couple of phone calls here. 215 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: Nick Saban will join us, coming up in a little bit. 216 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: Derek and South Dakota. Derek, Yeah, about Jeopardy. We might 217 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: as well start filming it in February. Since Aaron Rodgers, 218 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: oh boy, yeah, yeah, spoken like a true Vikings fan. 219 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess, Thank you, Derek. And a little shot there, 220 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: a little shot there. You could start, you know, filming 221 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: in January. Probably Matt in Indiana, Hey, Matt, Hey, Danna 222 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: just wanted your take on Rogers doing Jeopardy. I'm afraid 223 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna don't fairly criticize. And they've got a really 224 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: high expectations for Rogers and if he starts doing Jeopardy, 225 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: it's going to be just like when he had a girl. Well. 226 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: I don't know what the punchline was there, but I 227 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: think for Jeopardy viewers, Rogers was on there and did 228 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: really well. You know that he can handle that kind 229 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: of pressure doing Jeopardy, and I think that that helps 230 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 1: you because it's all right, he's Hall of Fame quarterback, 231 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,439 Speaker 1: but also he was a great Jeopardy contestant. Now he's 232 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,440 Speaker 1: not Ken Jennings, but you know, Ken Jennings is not 233 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: a warm guy. He just a really smart man. And 234 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: I think to be a host is one thing. To 235 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: be a contestant completely different than being a host. You know, 236 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: do you have charm and you might? You know, you 237 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: have an older audience tuning in. They want to like you. 238 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 1: And yes, the game is supposed to be paramount. That's 239 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: the most important thing. But I don't know. There's certain 240 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: game shows when when you think about it, you know, 241 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: Pat say, Jack and Vanna whoever has taken over for them. No, 242 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: that'd be difficult too, because they were They're there with 243 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: you every single night at the same time, and and 244 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: there's something that's familiarity of their party, your you let 245 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: him in your house. Yeah, poll the I don't have 246 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: the updated odds. They haven't done the updated odds on Jeopardy, 247 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: but you could bet on this. Ken Jennings is still 248 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: one of the favorites. Katie Kirk, George Stephanopolis, LeVar Burton, 249 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: Mike Richards, he's one of the producers of the show. 250 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: Anderson Cooper, Steve Cornaki, the map guy that we like. 251 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: Oh YEAHBC. Yeah, he'd be good rolling out with the sleeves. Yeah, 252 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: those are like the top eight or nine, Okay, Neil Patrick, Harris, 253 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel or some of the names. Well, Jimmy Kimmel 254 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: can't have that job too, Like, doesn't he have enough jobs? 255 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: He hosts the account of Awards. He you know, he's 256 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: hosting Zoom Calls and Jeopardy and his own show at night. Yeah, 257 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: I'm the club. Yeah. I don't think A Rodgers can 258 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: do it. BEA's it what you and Chris Sims talked about. 259 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: It just opens him up for too much criticism if 260 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: the team loses. You know, well, how much more criticism 261 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: is he going to get than he already gets? That's true? Yeah, 262 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: yeah poem. Yeah, like like he's busy out, like he's 263 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: not studying his playbook during the Jeopardy time. It's taken 264 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: time out of his playbook time. Well, that was always 265 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: the knock on Shack. Well, you know, you should be 266 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: practiced in your free throws in the off season, because 267 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: Shack would be you know, doing a rap album or 268 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: you know, filming a movie. I think he did practice. 269 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: He just he was never going to be a good 270 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: free throw shooter. His form technique was not good. Yes, 271 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: so you think a thirty seven year old quarterback could 272 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: do that, But a twenty four year old quarterback couldn't 273 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: take fifty days off to do Jeopardy. I'd imagine I 274 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: would think that, as we like to say, the optics 275 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: would not be favorable. But here is Aaron Rodger who 276 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: loves Jeopardy revered Alex Trebeck was a successful contestant on there, 277 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: and at his stage in his career and his life. 278 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: You know, I think that people would be and I 279 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: could be completely wrong. I think people would be more 280 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: accepting unless you hate the Packers. You know, then you're 281 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: gonna get football fans that, you know, hate the Packers, 282 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: and Bears fans aren't gonna like it. Vikings fans aren't 283 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 1: gonna like it, and Detroit fans aren't gonna like I'd 284 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: be curious in those markets if how how Aaron Rodgers 285 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: does in those cities or states. Yeah. See those groups 286 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: that you all just mentioned there aren't very cerebral people though, 287 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: so they probably wouldn't want wow kidding, wow, wow, They 288 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: probably wouldn't watch a show like Jeopardy anyway. Seaton lost 289 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: the bracket challenge, Well, you didn't lose it, you just 290 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: didn't win the rage yet. Yeah, you lost to the 291 00:16:54,560 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: drummer for Young the Giant. I did, Yeah, Francois Francois 292 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 1: comtois classic battle of to college football or college basketball powerhouses. 293 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: We thought it was going to come down to Seaton 294 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: against the drummer for Young the Giant. It's kind of 295 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: like how everybody knew it was being was it was 296 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: me and France Sis. It's like, well, these guys are 297 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: probably gonna win. You know, let's take a break. Did 298 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: we reach out to Francis from Young the Giant. Sure did, okay, 299 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: because we should congratulate him on Lenny winning the Celebrity 300 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: Bank of Challenge. Give me a little panel on the 301 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: back there, plus our our audience, we had a couple 302 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: of people who had unbelievable runs here in the tournament. Yes, boy, 303 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: you know the backstory of how Francois came to be 304 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 1: on the bracket contest. No, we were calling for everybody, literally, 305 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: just about everyone who's somewhat famous, and we asked for 306 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: Ed Shearon, the singer, and Ed Shearon's people said Ed 307 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: doesn't know anything about college basketball, shocker. But they said, 308 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: there's some other clients of theirs who are famous musicians 309 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: and our fans of the show and fans of college basketball. 310 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: And then we got some suggestions back. So the passing 311 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: of Ed Sheering at the passing, but him passing on 312 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: our actually his passing got us side. Hey, it's Ed 313 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 1: Shearing available. No, but the drummer from Young the Giant, 314 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: it's great, good enough? Yeah, perfect, I said, fine, even better? 315 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: Who else did we get, like Toad the wet Sprocket 316 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: or who were some was there another band that's in here? 317 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: Fits in the Tantrums fits. Now fitz is in, but 318 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: the Tantrums weren't. Michael Fitzpatrick finished twenty six. Okay at Illinois, 319 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: you're winning it all. Okay, do you see the Rain Supreme? 320 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right, Scoop, there it is. Yeah they 321 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: did okay, John Oates, Oh yeah, Darius Rucker, no big deal. 322 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: Oh that's right. We did have a few. Yes, fifteenth 323 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: Place I find very fascinating. Pauli, Paps, Steve rolling In, 324 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: John Oates all shared fifty of the place. That's a 325 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: that's a fun little group there. I'm just saying we 326 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: could make a pretty awesome band with the musicians that 327 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: we have in here. And the drummer. Drum is the 328 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: hardest to find.

Well? I 362 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: gotta probably the two of the largest cookie jars you've 363 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 1: ever seen in your life, all of them, and when 364 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: they get halfl I sort of go into panic mode 365 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: and some kind of way they get filled back up. 366 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 1: Is it somebody's job to fill up your cookie jar? 367 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: That's the that's their main job, I said job. Yeah, 368 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons I'm afraid to retire. You know, 369 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: can't be anybody there about my cookie jar. I'm sure 370 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 1: that there's some coaches around the SEC that would gladly, uh, 371 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: you know, fill up your cookie jar if you decided 372 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: to leave. Yeah. Maybe Do you about that part? Do 373 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: you feel out of a bracket from arch maddness? You 374 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: ever done that before? Yeah? Really? That every year we 375 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: we do we do a family um like everybody in 376 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: the family, both sides of the family. You know, my 377 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: daughter or her husband and his family, you know, everybody. 378 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 1: And you know, I really don't want to sound you know, 379 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 1: facetious or anything, but I had Baylor winner at all, 380 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: which kind of made me the winner. I didn't know 381 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: you followed college basketball, Well I don't. That's what the 382 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 1: hard thing about picking the breakast is because I picked 383 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: Baylor and I hadn't seen them or guns Dugas either 384 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: one play all year. You know, I kind of just 385 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: rely on you know, every now and I see some 386 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: replays on you know, ESPN or something, or hear people 387 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: talk about him. So it's, uh, yeah, I really don't 388 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: have much time to watch it, so it's kind of hit, 389 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: hit or miss. You know. I didn't start out very 390 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: well the last four end, you know those games that 391 00:22:54,920 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 1: UCLA was in, I was over for four. I pick 392 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 1: one of them, right, that's all right. You know the 393 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: first flour is pretty tough to pick. Did you play 394 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: hoops growing up? Yeah? Absolutely, I played in high school, played, yeah, 395 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: and I love it. I did. I just I played 396 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: until a year ago when I got my hip replacement. 397 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: We played noontime basketball here every day. Well, what's the 398 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 1: scouting report on you point guard, commissioner of the league 399 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: pick the best players to be on my team called 400 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: the Fouls, and we do pretty well. Are you like 401 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: the the Globe Trotters and the opponents the Washington Generals. 402 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: You guys never lose, that's kind of that way. Yeah, 403 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: so we appreciate the competition now whenever we get some 404 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: Have you been to the Masters? I have been one time, 405 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: and I'm actually going Saturday night to spend a little time. 406 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: They're on Sunday. Now you're gonna be the guest of 407 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: somebody who's playing, or just as a start, you know, 408 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm doing some function there for somebody on Saturday night, 409 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: so I'm just going to stay over. My daughter and 410 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: her husband want to go. They've never been to the Masters, 411 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: so typically when I do things like that, I go 412 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: and come back, but this time they wanted to go, 413 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: So who are going to stay? And they're going to 414 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,919 Speaker 1: have an opportunity to watch on Sunday. I took my 415 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: son when I was a coach at Ellastue when he 416 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: was probably and maybe fourteen years old or something. But 417 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: that's the only time I've actually gone to watch it. 418 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: Have you played you know. Oh yeah, I play every year. 419 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: Every year I go. There are several you know, supporters 420 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: of the program here that our members there, and they 421 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: are you know, one of the three or four of 422 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: them invite me every year, and you know, we we 423 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 1: you know, I enjoy it. I enjoy it. That's probably 424 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: one of my favorite things to do. Do you listen 425 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 1: to your caddy? Yeah? Absolutely. I don't think you can 426 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: play though if you don't, I know, not on the 427 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 1: greens at least. I mean, it's ridiculous. I try to 428 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: tell people that whatever you see on TV, it is 429 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: nothing like that in person, because there's so many mounds 430 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: in the undulated undulation of the green, like it's crazy. 431 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 1: And I had a caddy tell me, hey, don't ask 432 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: any questions. I'm gonna tell you where to put it, 433 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: and you put it right there. And I listened to 434 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 1: him and probably saved ten shots, no question, if you 435 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: didn't have somebody telling you, I mean, I can't figure 436 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: it out. I mean maybe other people can figure it out. 437 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: And I'm so pro guys can figure it out. But man, 438 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. There's elephants very and some of 439 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: them greens. It's ridiculous. He's Nick Saban. Of all the 440 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 1: places that that you know you play golf, I mean 441 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: to me, that's the one place you know. I'm the 442 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 1: kind of golfer that just I'm happy to hit it 443 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: on the green, But hitting on the green there in 444 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: the wrong place is you might be better off hitting 445 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 1: the sand travel He's Nick Sabing, the Alabama head coach. 446 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: What is your role or was your role at a 447 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 1: pro day? Really not much of anything, you know. I 448 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: get asked questions by a few guys mostly that I know, 449 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: which is quite a few guys in the NFL. I 450 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: know that I worked with when I was in the HL, 451 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: and I know watched the players encourage him, usually do 452 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: a little something for the media, but it's very minimal 453 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: route the players hope they do well. Try to encourage 454 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 1: them to do the right things relative to now. I 455 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: was on the other side being a pro coach for 456 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: a year, So I really try to encourage our guys 457 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: to know that, you know, working for him, cooperating with them, 458 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: these are the things that create value for you. Now. 459 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: Refusing to do anything doesn't create value for you. So 460 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: you know, I just I always tell guys you don't 461 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: want to give anybody the reason to say. But you know, 462 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 1: I used to listen for that word all the time 463 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:36,959 Speaker 1: in the draft report, and as soon as it came up, 464 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: nothing year that ever came after it. And I said, so, 465 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 1: the choices and decisions you make don't don't give anybody 466 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: a reason to say. But they're looking for reasons not 467 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: to pick you, right, they're trying to sign. Is there 468 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 1: any flaws, Is there's something wrong with you that don't 469 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 1: don't give them any reasons for that. And you've got 470 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: to cooperate to be able to do that. What did 471 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: you tell Kyle Shanahan about Matt Jones. He didn't ask 472 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: me a thing, didn't ask me a thing. I said 473 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: Hi to him, John Lynch too. Um, they did not 474 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: ask me a thing about them. They didn't ask me 475 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: a thing. Maybe they thought they weren't allowed to because 476 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: you know, out there on the pro day floor, which 477 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 1: is where I saw them. You know, I think that 478 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: they I don't know all their rules, but I think 479 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: their rules they're not really allowed to talk to me. Um, 480 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 1: so you know, I stood by Belichick. We didn't talk. 481 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: But um, so you know, I don't know what their 482 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: rules are. And I don't know what the reason for 483 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: some of their rules are, but there's where it is. Wait, 484 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: so you stand next to Belichick, but you guys don't talk, 485 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: and you guys are great friends. Dan, Well, we talked 486 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: a little bit before, you know, I mean whether by 487 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: phone or whatever. We always talked about whatever we need 488 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: to talk. What was you know here? When was his 489 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: secretary in Cleveland my secretary now or my assistant and 490 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: so he always comes up and says a lot to her, 491 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 1: and you know, it's that's that's kind of lifelong. When 492 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: did you know mac Jones was something different? Considering we 493 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: thought he was going to Kentucky. He was a three 494 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: star recruit. You had two of there. But was there 495 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: a moment where you go, there's something different here, because 496 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: it feels like the NFL on these scouts kind of 497 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: stumbled upon him the last couple of weeks here. Well, 498 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: I think that a lot of people got inderstood by 499 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 1: the way he played last year. I mean, he did 500 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 1: a phenomenal job. I mean we had really good players 501 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: around them, no doubt, A couple of really good receivers, 502 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 1: you know, good, a couple of good rundbacks, really good 503 00:29:55,560 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: offensive line. But Max released intelligent, very smart, very accurate 504 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: with the ball, and makes good decisions about where he 505 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: goes the ball. So that that's a really good started 506 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,959 Speaker 1: starting point for a guy being a good quarterback. You know, 507 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: you can go on all these measurables and arm strength 508 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: and all that, but that really doesn't make you a 509 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: good quarterback. And you know, guys like Aaron Rodgers, who 510 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: I was at Miami when Aaron Rodgers came out, and 511 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: you know, his coach told me that's how he was, 512 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: and in a workout he was probably not that much 513 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: more impressive than you know, somebody else. But those instinctive 514 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: intangibles that a quarterback hands or you know, invaluable to 515 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 1: being successful at the position. And I think that's why 516 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: that's so hard to evaluate. And I think that's why 517 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: that's the number one failure position in the draft is 518 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: because of that being such a hard thing to evaluate. So, 519 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: but you asked me a question about one that I met, 520 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: and come back Jones was going to be a good player. 521 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: I was in pressed with the way Mac played in 522 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: fall camp, uh, and I was hopeful that he would 523 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: be able to continue to be able to play that way. 524 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: You know, when the games came and you know, he 525 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: didn't disappoint you know, at all. He really prepared for 526 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: the games. Well, he sort of changed his buydset. You know, 527 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: early in his career, he was an anxious guy that 528 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: you know, really had a tough time overcoming you know, 529 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: mistakes in his own mind that planned the next play 530 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: and you know he kind of you know got over that, 531 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: through through that, and um, you know, he really prepared 532 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: well for games and he was always able to execute 533 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: exactly what we wanted to do. So I think the 534 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: world of them. And you know, he had a lot 535 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: of three star players. You know, everybody goes on these stars, 536 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: but um, you know, Clinton Williams didn't have a lot 537 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: of stars and he was the third got picked in 538 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: the draft, and Josh Jacas didn't have a lot of 539 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: stars and he was you know, a first round draft pick. 540 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: So um, but we don't go on the stars. I 541 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 1: never know how many stars a guy has until like 542 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: after recruiting, you know, somebody says, hey, you had this 543 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: many nine star guys or five star guys or whatever 544 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: they are, you know, and I just we evaluate kind 545 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: of like you do for the draft, and we have 546 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: criteria for what we're looking for in every position, and 547 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: it's very similar to what a lot of pro teams 548 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: would look for at those positions. And by that time, 549 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: we try to develop our team and develop our players. 550 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: And when we find guys, we don't care how many 551 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: stars they have, and just you know, kind of trying 552 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: to develop those guys. And some of them have turned 553 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: out to be pretty good, and some of the guys 554 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: that had a lot of stars, you know, it turned 555 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,479 Speaker 1: out to not be so good. Before I let you go, 556 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: was it true that Mac was carving up the defense 557 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: in practice and you told him to kind of settle 558 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: down and stop carving up the defense. Did that actually happened. 559 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 1: I remember the coving up the defense part that happened 560 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: quite often. I don't ever remember asking him to quit 561 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: doing that. He might have felt that because it was 562 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: a little frustrating at times trying to develop. You know, 563 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: had like eight new starters on defense, and they didn't 564 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: have a lot of confidence. So you know, when you 565 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: go out there every day and get sort of, you know, shredded, 566 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to develop confidence. But in that group, 567 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: but I knew we were going to have the kind 568 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: of team that was going to have to outscore people, 569 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: especially early on, until we got the defense a little 570 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 1: better and they got a little better the second half 571 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: of the year, and you know, the offense was very 572 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: productive and that's how we won. Recapping one of the 573 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: greatest wins of your career, Baylor wins the national championship, 574 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: you win your brackets. So pretty pretty good year for you, coach, 575 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: and always great to catch up with you. Yeah, but 576 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: I didn't mind anything except bragging rights. And I don't 577 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 1: want anybody to think out there I'm a gambler, because 578 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: I'm not. But that's that's when it comes to your family, 579 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: to be able to have bragging rights, it's it's worth 580 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,919 Speaker 1: a lot more than the money. Oh you got bragging rights, coach, 581 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: I would have everybody in your family run a lap. Yeah. Well, 582 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: I just like to talk and I told everybody last night. 583 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: I said, look, I'm going to show the class. And 584 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: I called my daughter with like four minutes ago in 585 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: the game and I said, I'm not ready to claim victory. 586 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,280 Speaker 1: I just want to know if you're ready to conceive. 587 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: You got You're happy about that. It's good, great, great 588 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: to catch up with you. Safe travels to August of 589 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: their coach, and uh, we'll connect with you some sometime 590 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: down the road. All right, buddy, Thanks Dan, appreciate you 591 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,879 Speaker 1: have a good day. That's a coach, Saban. I never 592 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 1: know what I'm going to get. You know what stood out? 593 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: That's almost a fifteen minute conversation. One thing stood out 594 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: more than anything else. Now, he did have a sense 595 00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: of humor and had some fun with some other things 596 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: in the bracket challenge and all that. Playing Augusta when 597 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 1: he said at his at Mac Jones's pro day, Kyle 598 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,720 Speaker 1: Shanahan didn't ask him any questions, And then he said 599 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: he didn't know if they were allowed to talk. I'm 600 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 1: gonna guess Nick Saban's been through quite a few pro days. 601 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: Are pro coaches allowed to ask you any questions? But 602 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 1: he's standing next to Belichick and they're having a conversation. 603 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: But I you know, because I said, well, what did 604 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 1: you tell Kyle Shanahan? He said, I didn't talk to him. 605 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm guessing if you're Kyle Shanahan, you're gonna take Mac Jones. 606 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 1: You probably got a question or two for Nick Saban. Yes, Toner, 607 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: why wouldn't you be able to ask questions? Plus whatever 608 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: the answer is you got to take with a grain 609 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 1: of salt because they're pubbing their own guys from their 610 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: own place and their team, So I don't understand why 611 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: that would be a rule breaker. They ask a coach 612 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: a couple of questions about their guy, we should ask 613 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: Florio and see if you're allowed to talk to the 614 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: coach at a pro day. Yeah. Point, And that's gotta 615 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 1: be a weird thing because if you're great friends with 616 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: Belichick and he asked you about mac Jones, but then 617 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 1: another coach who you're not great friends with asked you 618 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: about a player, are you less truthful? But you want 619 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: your guy to go high? It's good for the program. 620 00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 1: Mac Jones goes four or three. It's an awkward situation 621 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: because if Belichick asks you a question, Belichick's you're good, buddy, 622 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: But then if somebody else who you don't have a 623 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: relationship with, ask you about your player. All right, let 624 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 1: me take a break. When we come back, last call 625 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: for phone calls and the Brackett Contest winner.

That was a 652 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: I'd give it a ninety five percent? Okay, all right, Yeah, 653 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: we don't aim for perfection around here.

Actually, the reason I won and 659 00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 1: the reason I put Yukon in the final four were 660 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 1: both because of my brother in law who did go 661 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 1: to Yukon. He gave me good advice on the on 662 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 1: the championship game and not such good advice for the 663 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: final four. Um, is there going to be a song 664 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: off this win? Are you? Are you gonna be able 665 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: to write something off winning the Brackett Challenge here? Yeah? 666 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think just touching on these feelings of surprise, 667 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,280 Speaker 1: I actually thought I was in last place as yesterday morning, 668 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: and then someone pointed out that I hadn't paid attention. 669 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: I did so poorly for the rest of it, and 670 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: then I realized I'd actually picked the right two teams 671 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 1: for the finals. But um, yeah, I mean I think 672 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:21,399 Speaker 1: it's definitely sparked some ideas. How are you gonna Did 673 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 1: you celebrate last night like a rock star? I had 674 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 1: a couple of beers and I went to bed at nine? 675 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: But did you used to have a time where you 676 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: acted like a you know, like a tour bush days 677 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: and hotel Yeah, well, I mean we haven't toured in 678 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: about a year, so uh, it's I kind of forget 679 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 1: those days. But yeah, definitely when we were starting out 680 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: in the in the early twenties, there were some some 681 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 1: late nights in early mornings and early morning calls where 682 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: you regretted the late nights. But um, we've slowed down 683 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 1: a little bit. And you're from Canada, Yeah, I was 684 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: born in Montreal, Okay. And you how did did you 685 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 1: guys come up with Young the Giant? We tried to change. 686 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 1: We had an original name from when we were a 687 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: high school band, and you know, we wanted to do 688 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 1: something different and just kind of through everything at the 689 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,120 Speaker 1: wall and that was the one that stuck, and in retrospect, 690 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,799 Speaker 1: It's about the most difficult thing to pronounce, so I 691 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: don't know that it was a great name, but we're 692 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 1: sticking with it. Did you ever meet the best Canadian 693 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 1: drummer of all time? Neil Pert? Yeah? I Unfortunately I 694 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 1: didn't have the chance, but I'm a huge fan and 695 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 1: he was a big loss for the Canadian family. Definitely. Well, congratulations. 696 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 1: When do you guys get back in studio or when 697 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: do you guys start to tour again. We've actually been 698 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: taking advantage of the year to write and record, so 699 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: we're hopefully going to have a fifth record within the 700 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 1: next few months, and then shows are starting to pick 701 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 1: up again. So we have some shows coming up in 702 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 1: April and then a few festivals throughout the summer, and 703 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: then hopefully we can do some more. Are you know 704 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 1: deep touring in twenty twenty two.

I mean, I think I have to at 707 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,879 Speaker 1: this point. This is definitely a perfect example of beginner's luck. 708 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: And this is what happened in my Fantasy Hoops league. 709 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,720 Speaker 1: I won the first year. I am in last place 710 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: this year, so winning the bracket kind of helped me 711 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: balance it out.

Yeah, 731 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: But I was wondering, is it because he doesn't want 732 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: to talk in front of other teams and they talk 733 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 1: on the phone later?
