17
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: will join us a little bit later on. He's been

18
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 2: covering the US Olympic team. Summer League basketball continues, and

19
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 2: everybody spots somebody and they go, wow, that is going

20
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 2: to be great. Once again, I'm going to caution you

21
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: the Summer League is littered with guys who are Wow,

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: that guy is gonna be great, and then they disappear.

23
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 2: You know, you get an into an atmosphere where and

24
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: it feels like everything is run up and down the

25
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: floor and shoot threes. That's what the Summer League is.

26
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 2: But occasionally you'll get some players who know how to

27
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 2: play and they will play in the NBA. But as

28
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 2: far as playing at a high level, what you do

29
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 2: in the Summer League doesn't equate to stardom in the NBA. Right,

30
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 2: So we have a poll question today. Gus will join

31
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 2: us a little bit later on. We've been talking about

32
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: Cooper Flag, seventeen year old going to Duke. He's playing

33
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: against the Olympic team and holding his own and you

34
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: start to wonder about when does somebody become a phenom.

35
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 2: When do the parents realize this? Do they realize it

36
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: before the athlete does. We've had athletes in tennis as

37
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: young as what thirteen for Capriotti. They're there on the

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: center stage, they're playing in big events. In fact, tennis

39
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: has a lot of players, especially on the women's side

40
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: of tennis, that they're able to be there and play

41
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: at a high level at a younger age than the

42
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 2: men track and field, you have a sixteen year old

43
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: who's going to be representing the United States in track

44
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 2: and field. Basketball is a little trickier, although you can

45
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 2: go back to Lebron when he was sixteen playing against

46
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: NBA players holding his own Bryce Harper when he was

47
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 2: fifteen or sixteen on the cover Sports Illustrated. You just

48
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: have like the genetic lottery that you hit, But then

49
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 2: you also have to have parents who are and they

50
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: may border on being obsessive, but you have to sometime,

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: Like Tiger's dad was obsessive with Tiger, and if you

52
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 2: watch the documentary on Tiger, his parents tell his dad

53
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: tells him to break up with this girl that he

54
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: really likes her. He writes her a letter and says,

55
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 2: I got to break up with you. She's like, why

56
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 2: my dad told me to. He didn't want anybody or

57
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 2: anything to get in the way of Tiger being great.

58
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: You look at Venus and Serena Williams, their father he

59
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: was not going to let anything get in the way,

60
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: including their upbringing in Compton. They are on sixty minutes

61
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 2: and you're thinking, how are they able to be as

62
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 2: great as they are given the surroundings that they're growing

63
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 2: up in. But parents can be great. Parents can always

64
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: ruin things too. But you have a seventeen year old

65
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,839
Speaker 2: kid who grew up in Maine and he is now

66
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: the number one high school player in America and projected

67
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 2: to be the number one pick. Now we've seen this before.

68
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: Freddie Adu was a soccer player and he was supposed

69
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: to be the next great player and he never turned

70
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 2: out to be. I think he kind of burst on

71
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 2: the scene at fifteen. You have the hits and missus,

72
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: but sometimes you get that one and oh, oh my goodness,

73
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: that person is destined for greatness. But the role that

74
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: parents play, coaches play, and also that player himself, because

75
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: I think we all grew up with, you know, athletes

76
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: who were like, oh my god, he's so much better

77
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: than everybody else, but they matured quicker. I remember playing

78
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 2: against a guy in eighth grade and I go, I'll

79
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 2: never be as good as him. He didn't make the

80
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 2: freshman team, but in eighth grade he was unbelievable. That's

81
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 2: what happens. They stop, you continue, but then you have

82
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 2: to want to be great. That's another thing. It's not

83
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 2: your parents want you to be great. It's when the

84
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 2: child wants to be great, then the parents should follow suit,

85
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 2: not the other way around.

86
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 3: Yes, that's one of.

87
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 4: The things that people had been saying about Cooper Flagg.

88
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 4: I think I don't know if it was Kevin Durant

89
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 4: or not, that somebody had said, like, you could just

90
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 4: tell that this kid wants to be great like he

91
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 4: wants it, he wants to be the guy.

92
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: And you got to have that, because I've been around parents,

93
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: been around coaches, and they will tell you he just

94
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: doesn't want it, like it comes too easy for you.

95
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 3: Want that kid? Who you got to go? Dad? Can

96
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 3: you come out hippie grounders? Dad? Can you throw me BP? Dad?

97
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: Would you rebound for me? Like you want to have that?

98
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,479
Speaker 2: And when you have that, then as a parent, it's

99
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 2: exciting because it's not like I gotta drag Timmy out

100
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 2: and having shag flies. Come on, we're going to the

101
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,679
Speaker 2: driving range on it's too hot. It's when the kid

102
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: is obsessed and then you follow suit. Too many times

103
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 2: it's parents who go come on yet, because we live

104
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 2: vicariously through our children. If we didn't succeed, or the

105
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: guy who almost had the college career or he almost

106
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 2: was a great high school player. Now you see yourself

107
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 2: and your son or daughter and you're like, come on,

108
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 2: get out there and do it for me. Whether they

109
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 2: say that or not, it is implied you want your

110
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: son or daughter to succeed. Parents take great pride in that.

111
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 2: Hey look what I did. Look what we did out there.

112
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: But you have to have something in your mind, that

113
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 2: DNA that says I want to be great and nothing

114
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 2: is going to stop me. Because you wouldn't expect a

115
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: kid in Maine to be the number one player in

116
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 2: America in high school basketball, going into college basketball and

117
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 2: going to be the projected number one pick. But you

118
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 2: wouldn't have expected Serena Williams coming out of Compton to

119
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 2: be the best female tennis player of all time.

120
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 3: And who's this kid?

121
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 2: Tiger Woods and he's going to take on everybody, And

122
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 2: at age two or three he's on a TV show.

123
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 2: Get you can't script these things. You have to have

124
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 2: it just falls into place. But the son or the

125
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 2: daughter and the role they play of wanting it is

126
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 2: really key because a lot of time the parents want

127
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: it more than the child does. All right, we'll come

128
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: up with the pole question here, But yeah, we were

129
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 2: kind of looking at this with the tennis players at Wembledon,

130
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: I mean even eighteen years of age, that's not young,

131
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: not anymore. Certainly on the female side of the draw.

132
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: You know, you get fourteen fifteen years of age, but

133
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: a male track star at sixteen that's really unheard of.

134
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 2: You'll get some fast, you know, track and field athletes

135
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 2: at that age, but then to go to the Olympics,

136
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 2: that's different. So they're just certain players and certain athletes.

137
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 2: And I always look at, you know, the lineage here

138
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 2: your dad play, mom play. Look at Christian McCaffrey's parents

139
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 2: and grandparents, great athletes. Mahomes' dad major League Baseball player,

140
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: Griffy with his father, I mean Tiger. You know his

141
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: dad was a athlete, not anywhere.

142
00:07:58,520 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 3: Near what he is.

143
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: Kobe Bryant, his dad play like you you have that

144
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 2: where you go your dad play?

145
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 3: Now? No, my mom is all American volleyball player.

146
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 5: Okay, like it.

147
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 2: They's somewhere in the tree, the DNA tree where you go.

148
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 3: Oh okay, yeah that guy. Yeah.

149
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 4: See Brad on Twitter brings up a good one too.

150
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 4: He has Katie Ledecki. She won a gold medal at fifteen. Yeah,

151
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 4: I think kind of out of nowhere. Well you find

152
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 4: that though also with female swimmers. While Missy Franklin I

153
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 4: think was really young, like you, Dearren Torres, like, there's

154
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 4: a lot of you know, women mature quicker sooner and

155
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 4: have that opportunity to be able to compete before you know.

156
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: Boys, we're goofy, we're gangly.

157
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, gold medal at fifteen, it's it's pretty good.

158
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yeah, Paul.

159
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 5: I think you hit it on the head. It helps

160
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 5: if your father or mother played basketball. I looked at

161
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 5: Cooper Flag both parents played small college basketball mate, so

162
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 5: it comes from a basketball family. But the gift when

163
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 5: they say an athletes gifted, was Michael Jordan gifted with

164
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 5: leaping ability and coordination? Or was his gift a maniacal

165
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 5: desire to win and improve? Lebron's gift is being six '

166
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 5: eight and coordinated and jacked, but also to work out

167
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 5: like that? Or Kobe Bryant was his gift is basketball

168
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 5: jumping ability and leaping ability or being a maniac about

169
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 5: working out. Maybe that's the gift.

170
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: But also when you realize you have it, the question

171
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: is do you want to cultivate it? Because there are

172
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 2: a lot of people who have a lot of talent.

173
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 2: And I was around a woman who's beautiful singer, and

174
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 2: I go, why don't you do this for livning?

175
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 3: Why you know?

176
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 2: Why don't you explore this? And she goes, I don't think,

177
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 2: So I go why and she said, I don't know.

178
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: I'm just not I'm just I know how to do it.

179
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 2: I just don't know if I want to do it.

180
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 2: And I go, Okay, you know that's but that does happen.

181
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 2: Sometimes you're good at something, but you're just good at it.

182
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 2: Doesn't mean you want that as your job.

183
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: You don't. You're not obsessed with it. Some things come natural. Yes.

184
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 4: See, my cousin Vince, when he was like thirteen years old,

185
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 4: was like six four two fifty. Kid was an absolute monster.

186
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 4: And I was like, holy crap, this kid's gonna be

187
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 4: alignment for Notre Dame. This is amazing. He's going to

188
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 4: the NFL. And he couldn't care less about football. He

189
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 4: just wanted to be an accountant.

190
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 3: And that's what he is to this day.

191
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 4: And his like friends in high school I think made

192
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,079
Speaker 4: him play football because they're like the coach's like, kid,

193
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 4: you're too big, Like you have to play you have

194
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 4: to do this. But he just wanted to be an accountant.

195
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,959
Speaker 4: He just wanted to crunch numbers. That's what he wanted

196
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 4: to do. He had no interest in football.

197
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 2: And there it happens with a lot of people. You know,

198
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: you can have somebody who's great at math. They don't

199
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 2: like math, they're just really good at math. Hey, man,

200
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 2: you should be a scientist.

201
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

202
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, Todd, Well, maybe you do like it, but you

203
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 6: don't have the self confidence to be able to take

204
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 6: it to the next level. Yeah, and you've convinced yourself

205
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 6: there's no way I'm gonna be able to hit that

206
00:10:59,280 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 6: kind of level.

207
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 2: Of Also, when you become a star, like a Little

208
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 2: League World Series star, now all of a sudden, Hey

209
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 2: what happened to you? Everybody catches up to you. That's

210
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 2: the difference between I'm really good at a really young age,

211
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,439
Speaker 2: I'm twelve. Now what happens. And we've seen a lot

212
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 2: of these athletes, certainly Little League World Series. You're like, man,

213
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 2: was he great? Oh?

214
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,839
Speaker 3: Did he play high school or baseball a little bit?

215
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 3: Didn't play in college? Yeah? That kid?

216
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 4: Yesterday Lamina Male plays for Spain place for Barcelona. That

217
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 4: kid is an absolute superstar and he had a banger

218
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 4: yesterday sixteen sixteen. Yeah, yeah, he's one of the stories

219
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 4: about the Euros so far that people have been laughing about.

220
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 4: Is that or at least like, you know, leading up

221
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 4: to this was that he had to do his homework

222
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 4: all the time.

223
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 3: Lamina.

224
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 4: Mile is busy doing his homework while his teammates are

225
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 4: like out getting dinner or something. He's like, oh, I

226
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 4: got a test or whatever. And he's an absolute superstar sixteen.

227
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 2: But you like Michael Jackson, he's in a musical family,

228
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 2: but you know, his dad, Joe had to go man

229
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 2: like special and he was like, there's just certain prodigies

230
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 2: where you just see it and you go, how is that?

231
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,439
Speaker 2: Why did he get all the talent? His brothers are

232
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: just playing instruments. It's just that's you win the genetic pool,

233
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 2: you win the lottery. And that's exactly what happens with

234
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 2: a lot of these talented athletes, musicians, artists. You know,

235
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: there's certain kids where you go, wait, he's graduating from

236
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 2: college with four degrees at twelve, Yeah, now I barely

237
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 2: got out of eighth grade, yes, Paul.

238
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 5: And sometimes you think maybe it's just destiny. Like Michael

239
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 5: Jordan's the only person in his family over five ten.

240
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 5: I think you've met his brother. His brother's like five

241
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 5: to eight. All his parents and relatives were all like

242
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 5: five seven, five eight, five nine, and then there's this

243
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,599
Speaker 5: six to sixth guy who becomes the greatest player of

244
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 5: all time. It doesn't make sense. Or like Serena and

245
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 5: Venus Williams. Venus Williams had a very good career, not

246
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 5: diminishing it, a very good career. Serena had the greatest

247
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 5: career of all time. What's the difference? Like they both

248
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 5: were raised in the same household, with the same tennis lessons,

249
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 5: with the same dayag just.

250
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 2: They're built different, right, But Venus Venus is today is

251
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 2: the older type tennis player. With her style, Serena was power.

252
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: You'd never seen that before. You have to go back

253
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: to Martina. She ushered in power and Serena took that

254
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 2: and it was just nobody was playing like that. And

255
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 2: also sometimes you get the younger sibling who succeeds or

256
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 2: is a better athlete, better performer, whatever it might be.

257
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 2: But they benefited by being the younger sibling. There you

258
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 2: get to see your brother's sister. So it's just kind

259
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 2: of fascinating that you look now and we're also in

260
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 2: an arrow of sports where we have athlete Tom Brady's

261
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 2: playing until he's forty five, Lebron at forty it's not

262
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 2: out of the question where you go, Khali, these guys

263
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 2: are still playing at a high level. Djokovic, he's old

264
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 2: in tennis, still playing at a very high level. But

265
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 2: that's what's amazing. You got both ends of the spectrum now.

266
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 2: Didn't used to be where you had players in their

267
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: upper thirties early forties still at the top of their game.

268
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 2: That's new in the last you know, ten to fifteen years,

269
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 2: maybe ten years as far as phenoms. Somebody who's twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen,

270
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: that's been around, been around for a long long time

271
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 2: and will continue. But also you're looking at sometimes families

272
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 2: attach their future financial future to somebody who's really young. Hey,

273
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 2: he's a really good golfer. You know, we're going to

274
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 2: move around, he's going to go to a different high school,

275
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 2: We're going to move like then all of a sudden,

276
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 2: you're putting pressure on that kid at twelve or thirteen,

277
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 2: fourteen fifteen. You got to succeed. We're hounting on you.

278
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: You see this with actors in Hollywood. Hey, you're nine

279
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 2: and you're on a sitcom, we're following you.

280
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, there is some of that though, where you know,

281
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 3: it's not for everybody.

282
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 4: There's obviously not just one path to get to where

283
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 4: we're talking about. But the only way for some people

284
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 4: that you can get there is to be all in.

285
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 4: If you're kind of like, well, okay, yeah, give the

286
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 4: basketball thing a try, or give the acting thing a try,

287
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 4: but after college, well now it's too late, or you

288
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 4: know what I mean. There's times that you have to

289
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 4: go all in at twelve years old and move your

290
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 4: family from you know, Massachusetts to California because Tom House

291
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 4: is going to start training your kid, like okay, well yeah,

292
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 4: this is how we have.

293
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 3: To do it. You have to be all in.

294
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 2: And Cooper Flagg's parents had to be all in that

295
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 2: he's leaving from Maine to go to Florida and doing

296
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 2: that a couple of years ago, and here he is

297
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 2: seventeen years of age. But I always go back to

298
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: Toddnovich and his dad, Marv Marinovich, and he wanted his

299
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 2: son to be robo quarterback and and Todd did succeed.

300
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 2: He was a good USC quarterback and uh I think

301
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 2: he played in some playoff games with the Raiders. Of course,

302
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: he's had some personal problems as well. I don't know

303
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 2: if his father pushing him fed into that. Like he

304
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 2: didn't have McDonald's like there. You know he's famous for

305
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: you never had, you know, processed food. And you know,

306
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 2: he just wanted to live his life and be normal.

307
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 2: He just didn't know what normal was. So parents can

308
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 2: sometimes ruin it. But when you have the you know,

309
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 2: something special, someone special, that's what's interesting. Now what role

310
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 2: do you play? But I always go back to how

311
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 2: bad do you want it? Because if you want it,

312
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: then I'm gonna want it. But I don't want to

313
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 2: be the one waking you up, dragging you around the country,

314
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: you know, going to AAU events, playing in soccer matches

315
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 2: in four different states, hockey travel. I mean, parents are

316
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 2: wonderful when they're accommodating their son or daughter. It's when

317
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 2: it becomes about them, that's when it's a problem. We'll

318
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 2: take a break, We'll settle on a poll question. Just

339
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:23,400

00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 2: you know, family issues here, but I did watch episode

343
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 2: one of The Bear, and I have no opinion. After

344
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 2: episode one, not one of not zero. You shouldn't. Okay,

345
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 2: you shouldn't because I was worried when my wife said.

346
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 3: Can you stop? Can you give something a chance?

347
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 2: Because I'm famous for watching about eight to twelve minutes

348
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 2: or something, and I go, Nope, not any good. And

349
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 2: I watched the whole thing and like I was proud.

350
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: You know, when you bring your report card home, you're like, look,

351
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 2: I said to my wife, I watched. I watched episode one.

352
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 2: She goes, great, are you gonna watch episode two? I go, yeah,

353
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 2: yeah I will. She goes, what'd you think? I go,

354
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 2: I didn't like. It was okay? So far it was okay.

355
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

356
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 4: My wife and I started watching The Bear because we

357
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 4: were like in between things. We had just finished something

358
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 4: we were watching that we really loved, and we didn't

359
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,919
Speaker 4: know there was nothing else on. We're kind of like,

360
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 4: I don't know, well, let's just try this Bear one.

361
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 4: And after the first episode, I was kind of indifferent,

362
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 4: like you were. It took me a few episodes to

363
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 4: be like, oh wow, this show is actually really awesome

364
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 4: and the episodes are quick, so you can kind of

365
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 4: run through them if you want. But it took me

366
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,719
Speaker 4: a few episodes to get into it. By the end

367
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 4: of the first season, I was in it enough to

368
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 4: watch the second. By the end of the second season,

369
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 4: I was like, this is the best show ever.

370
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 2: Okay, well I'm gonna watch episode two coming up tonight.

371
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 5: Yes, Paul, did you after episode one appreciate the frenetic

372
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 5: pace and filmmaking of it, maybe less more so than

373
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 5: the story.

374
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 3: No, No, I didn't.

375
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 5: I thought it was fantastically like it. Oh, you know,

376
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 5: like the Sandor movie uncut gems. Yes, how it goes in. No,

377
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 5: it's uncomfortable.

378
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 3: Yes, I didn't. I don't. I don't like it.

379
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 5: You don't have to bear season first episode because it

380
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 5: made you uncomfortable.

381
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: It's just it's.

382
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 2: Really really rapid pace, and you're like, it feels like

383
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 2: you're holding your breath, and then you're like, I am

384
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 2: holding my breath.

385
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 5: The show is it's almost seen back me up here.

386
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 5: It's like an experience a bit.

387
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 2: She's showing you something that you don't normally see. That's

388
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 2: all this goes on in kitchens all over the world.

389
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 2: We're seeing it, you know, in a place like Chicago,

390
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: and it's Italian beef, and you know, the family atmosphere

391
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 2: and you know, getting along with people. I'm always interested

392
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 2: in just the traffic, the flow of a kitchen and

393
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 2: how it works. And you know behind you walking behind you,

394
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 2: you know, God, some something hot here, you know, yes, yeah, corner. Yeah.

395
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 2: So that just sort of the synchronization of a kitchen

396
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 2: I find interesting.

397
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, you get the sort of frenetic pace of the kitchen,

398
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 4: and then how just crazy everything is. You start to

399
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 4: get a sense then of how crazy everyone's personal lives are. Yeah,

400
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 4: and then there's sort of like this attempt to calm

401
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,719
Speaker 4: both I guess, you know, and make sense of everything.

402
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 3: I will.

403
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,120
Speaker 2: I'll be in it for the long haul. That means

404
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 2: I'll watch episode two. Yeah, guarantee. That's growth parts. I

411
00:21:55,119 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 2: versus Canada night in basketball, Canada is really good, France

412
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 2: is good, Germany has been good. I expect Spain to

413
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 2: be good. The question is how good can they be?

414
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:19,120
Speaker 2: Can you be good for four games? Like you can

415
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 2: do a one off and somebody can surprise somebody, but

416
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 2: can you be really good to bordering on great for

417
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 2: four days or four games? Five games, six games? I

418
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 2: don't know how many they play in totality, Marvin.

419
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 9: In the Olympics, if you go all the way to

420
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 9: the gold medal game, it's eight.

421
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 2: Games, eight games? Okay, thank you? Can you be great? Therefore,

422
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 2: it's not a fluke if you win the gold medal.

423
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 2: If you're going to get to that point and you're

424
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 2: playing seven games, you get to the gold medal game,

425
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 2: then you've established yourself as being a good team. And

426
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 2: Canada has a really good roster. And you go back

427
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 2: to the Vince Carter effect on Canadian basketball. Now I

428
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 2: talk about Staf Curry's impact on the NBA with three

429
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 2: point shooters, you can go back and just say it

430
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 2: started with Vince Carter in Canada. Now, Damon Stodomayer was there.

431
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 2: That was you know, a long time before that, but

432
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 2: you know Vince being there and he was an aerial display,

433
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 2: so in a hockey craze country, you were seeing this great.

434
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:23,199
Speaker 8: You know.

435
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 2: I go back to Leo Routins who played at Syracuse

436
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 2: and he was from Canada, and he was one of

437
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 2: the first guys from Canada where I go, Oh, I

438
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 2: don't know how much basketball they play up there, but

439
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 2: he was a really good shooting big man, probably six ' ten.

440
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 2: And you just didn't talk about Canadian basketball, but now

441
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 2: you do. Now you're not surprised where you go, Oh,

442
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 2: he's from Canada. You don't go really, You're like, okay,

443
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 2: there's another one, yeah, PAULI.

444
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 5: Ice hockey, I assume is still the national sport of Canada,

445
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 5: the most popular or curly to play curling. I wonder

446
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 5: how far up the chain basketball is now played indoors

447
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 5: cold weather. You know, I know there's other sports Soccer

448
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 5: they do, Okay, I wonder Basketball Football League, yeah, c SOLID.

449
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 3: I love CF.

450
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,360
Speaker 5: I want a basketball number two.

451
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 2: Well, they certainly have success and they have players playing

452
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: in the NBA, and that's what you want growing up.

453
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 2: You want to see somebody like you playing at a

454
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 2: high level, you know, playing in a sport where you

455
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 2: go okay, And that's what Canada has been able to

456
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 2: do in the last twenty years. There's a lot of

457
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 2: really good players that you don't realize are from Canada.

458
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: I think Steve Nash he kind of started this too

459
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 2: at a higher level. Uh certainly had Steve and Vince Carter.

460
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's anybody else that comes to mind.

461
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 2: Vancouver Grizzlies with.

462
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 5: That great unions.

463
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 2: I always thought that that was a shout out by

464
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 2: the clash. You know, sure Reef don't Lincoln? Yeah, sure,

465
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 2: Reef aubdoor right here and big Country, Big Country Reeves.

466
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 3: All right, So what's the pole question, Seat O'Connor.

467
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 4: Which would be worse USA Basketball losing to Canada or France?

468
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 5: Which would americ be more bothered by?

469
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 2: Okay, France has the home court advantage. You have to

470
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: factor that in. If it's in a different country and

471
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 2: France won, If the Olympics were in Brazil and France,

472
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 2: one might be a little bit different. But France at

473
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 2: home and you got Rudy Gobert and you've got Victor Wimbenyama,

474
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 2: So I start there. Buckets are going to be hard

475
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 2: to come by if you come inside. I don't know

476
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,479
Speaker 2: who else is on the right. Like Nicholas Batoum feels

477
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 2: like he's fifty years of age, but he still plays great.

478
00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 3: In these games.

479
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, Marv, oh yeah, Now he's the black Larry Bird.

480
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 2: Is that the French Larry Bird?

481
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 3: The French Larry Bird? Who called him that he could be?

482
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 5: Like?

483
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 2: Oh that was Vincent Goodwill from Yahoo Sports yesterday. He's

484
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 2: like Evan Fournier plays like Larry Bird when it comes

485
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 2: to these games. I don't think there's shame in losing.

486
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 2: I don't because I mean, look at the draft, look

487
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 2: at the number of foreign born players, Look at the

488
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 2: number of players from France that are coming into the NBA,

489
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,679
Speaker 2: and they're going to continue to come in, and France

490
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 2: is going to be a power if they aren't already.

491
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 4: Yes, America doesn't handle losing very well, right, especially our game. Yeah,

492
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 4: but we've lost before in our game And how did

493
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 4: that go over? I don't know, did you what are

494
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 4: you upset?

495
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 3: Were you like? Damn it?

496
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 2: We got to get the dreams team back out there.

497
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 2: This might be the thing.

498
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 4: People weren't like that, you know, like they're no dream

499
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 4: team that's a bunch of losers. Let's get the good

500
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 4: guys out there. Well, that's why they put the Dream

501
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 4: Team in there. It was called the Redeemed Team, the

502
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 4: Redeemed Team team. I know, I know they had failed.

503
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 2: Yes they did. I know we're territorial. I get that.

504
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 2: I just if Canada wins like I wouldn't be shocked,

505
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 2: but I'd be surprised. Yeah, I'd be surprised because I'm

506
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 2: told this is the most talented team ever, more so

507
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: than the Dream Team. Okay, all I know is you

508
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 2: don't have Michael Jordan and even Charles Barkley. Charles was

509
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 2: the leading scorer for the Olympic team with the Dream Team. Uh,

510
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 2: you had some ceremonial picks for the Dream Team. But

511
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if is this roster that much better?

512
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 2: I don't know, Oh, because I don't know if there's

513
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 2: is there somebody equal to Jordan? And the answers no,

514
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,199
Speaker 2: is there somebody equal to Barkley? And I would say no.

515
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 2: At that time Barkley was was that MVP season? I like,

516
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,719
Speaker 2: the next season did he win the MVP? And you know,

517
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,439
Speaker 2: we know Jordan's history there. You know, Bird was a

518
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 2: shell of his former self. You know, Chris Mullen was there,

519
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:28,679
Speaker 2: you know, at Stockton Malone. I mean, you had a

520
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 2: really talented roster. But I don't know when you compare

521
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 2: the two, is this team that much better?

522
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 3: I guess yes, don.

523
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 6: I think it would be worse if we lost to Canada.

524
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 6: I'm just put it out there. I think people, the

525
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 6: average persons maybe not following it would be like, this

526
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 6: isn't hockey, this is basketball. We gotta beat Canada. Maybe

527
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 6: we don't know what's going on in the euro steps

528
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 6: and you know, foreign country year steps across the pond.

529
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 6: They played the game differently, and we're not used to

530
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 6: playing that kind of game against that team that's been

531
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 6: together many years or whatever it is. I think that

532
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 6: can be dismissed fatter than losing to Canada.

533
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 2: Okay, but Team USA and hockey based, you know versus

534
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 2: Canada Olympic team. Nobody's you know Team USA would win,

535
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 2: are you? I mean, is it that big of an

536
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 2: upset up?

537
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 5: There probably was, I'll bet you up, like on sports radio,

538
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 5: not being facetious, they probably were really upset by that.

539
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 5: I think if Canada beat USA, that's an interering level

540
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 5: of bragging rights for Canada, like we're the best basketball

541
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 5: in this in North America.

542
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 2: There's a lot of Canadian players who are in the NBA. Yeah,

543
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 2: And that's what people don't realize. You say, oh, wait,

544
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 2: he's from Canada. Yeah, I don knew that. Thank you,

545
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 2: you give me the Canadian roster?

546
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 3: Can you give me? You know?

547
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 2: And then Zach EDI's not even playing for that team,

548
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 2: which now he's the two time player of the year.

549
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 2: He's not a great or considered to be a great

550
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 2: NBA player, but still he's been two time college player

551
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 2: of the Year. Yeah.

552
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 4: See, while we're looking up the Canadian player the two

553
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 4: thousand and four Olympic team, right, Alan Iverson, Stefan Marbury,

554
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 4: Dwayne Wade, Carlos Boozer, Carmelo Anthony Lebron, James A. Mecca

555
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 4: okafor Shawn Mary and Amari Stodemeyer, Tim Duncan lamar Odom

556
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 4: and Richard Jefferson got a bronze medal. People went absolutely

557
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 4: ballistic on those dudes. Those who know basketball didn't do

558
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 4: that to them. Well, you weren't a hot taker in

559
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 4: two thousands, for sure, Still get more measured.

560
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 2: I know. It's it's wire to wire. I'm not a

561
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 2: hot taker. I'm gonna be measured here. I think my

562
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 2: audience deserves that. Yes, Paul on the Canadian national team.

563
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 2: You got Logan's Dort. You love him, Lou Dort.

564
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he plays in the NBA.

565
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 5: He's a very good player.

566
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: R J.

567
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 5: Barrett, Alexander Walker, Dylan Brooks, Sjay Gilgis, Jamal Murray. Got

568
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 5: some shooters, Kelly Olennok picking up four and for rebounds.

569
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 3: That doesn't help my argument.

570
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 5: I saved him for the end. Okay, Trey Lyles names

571
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 5: you know, Okay, but you do have a respectable roster

572
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 5: here and put you know, it's not like when you

573
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 5: see Spain or Argentina and you're like, oh my god,

574
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 5: these guys are so good.

575
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: Well, these guys haven't played in the NBA. They just

576
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 2: stay in their home country and play. And it's always

577
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 2: these countries that the team is the same and they

578
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 2: play together all the time. Those are the teams you

579
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 2: have to worry about. It's not just let's just put

580
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 2: together all these all stars, because that doesn't always equate

581
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 2: to success. It's that guy knows his role on this

582
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 2: team and it's been the same role for seven years.

583
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 2: That's when you have an upset, That's when you get

584
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 2: a surprise there. All right, So that's the poll question.

585
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 2: What would be worse if Team USA Hey lost to

586
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 2: Canada or France.

587
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 4: Yes, early Pole results have seventy Canada.

588
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: Let sneak in a couple of phone calls. Doug in

589
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: North Carolina leads us off on this Wednesday. Good morning,

590
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 1: Doug Hey.

591
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 8: Dan, you were talking about that fine line that parents

592
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 8: face between simply encouraging their kids and living vicariously through

593
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 8: their kids, and I want to talk about one dad

594
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 8: who clearly crossed over that line. The best sports biography

595
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 8: book that I've ever read, and I'm not even a

596
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 8: tennis fan, but if you're a reader, get a copy

597
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 8: of Open by Andrea Legacy. It's four hundred pages of

598
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,959
Speaker 8: how much he hated tennis. But it's how tennis was

599
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 8: tied into his relationship with his father, who I think

600
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 8: was an immigrant and I think he was a boxer

601
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 8: if I remember correctly, And he decided when the boy

602
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 8: was two years old that this kid was going to

603
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 8: be great at tennis, and Legacy hated it, and he

604
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 8: talked about when he fell in love with stephie Graff.

605
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 8: That's what we bonded over. She had a dominating father herself.

606
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 8: And I'm wondering, in all your years, have you ever

607
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 8: interviewed an athlete who went on to become great at

608
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 8: what they do but maybe it was in search of

609
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 8: parental love. If you've ever or talked to any great

610
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 8: athlete about that.

611
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a great point, Doug, and I did talk

612
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 2: to Dale Earnhardt Junior, and he was looking for parental love.

613
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 2: Junior was looking for his dad's love. Did talk to

614
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 2: Andre Agassi interviewed him. I read the book. It's heartbreaking

615
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 2: in there because his dad wanted something that his son

616
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 2: didn't want. But you you're good at it, but you

617
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 2: don't want to hurt the relations. You don't want to

618
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 2: disappoint your parents. And I think Andre did it. And

619
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 2: you know, then there were a lot of things off

620
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 2: the court that he got into, you know, was style

621
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 2: over substance, where like, oh, this guy's a flash. He

622
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,600
Speaker 2: looks like he's his star celebrity, but let's see him win,

623
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 2: and then he became one of the greats. But I

624
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 2: can understand that where I'm gonna do this, my dad

625
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 2: wants me to do this, and then that's that's that's

626
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,080
Speaker 2: the bond that you have. And then you decide you

627
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 2: don't want to do it anymore. Oh my god, I'm

628
00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 2: going to hurt dad's feelings or Dad's going to be

629
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 2: bad at me. Dad's going to be angry like that's

630
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 2: imagine if you're a child in your fourteen and all

631
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 2: of a sudden you say, I don't want to play

632
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,479
Speaker 2: baseball anymore, and you got to go tell your dad.

633
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 2: Even though you're really good at it, you just don't

634
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 2: like it, and it happens all the time, or you

635
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,439
Speaker 2: stay in it because you have to because you don't

636
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,399
Speaker 2: want to disappoint your parents. It's a very, very very

637
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 2: tricky thing. Thankfully, I had four kids who weren't good athletes,

638
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 2: so never had to worry about that. Never problem solve. Yeah,

639
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 2: Travel teams nope, not here. All Star teams, nope, not here.

640
00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 2: But they tried. And that's all we said. If you start,

641
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 2: then you finish. That's it. If you don't like it,

642
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,919
Speaker 2: you still have to play the entire season. But even then,

643
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 2: you know I said, yeah, I don't want you to play,

644
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 2: because you think I want you to play, and you

645
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 2: know they finally realize that let me take a break.

646
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 3: Got her Play of the day up next.

00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: and the Stars two games and there is.

656
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 2: Little doubt Reese hines he plays for the Reds. He

657
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,760
Speaker 2: has certainly made an impact here in a short period

658
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 2: of time. Hit a home run that was four hundred

659
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 2: forty nine feet on Monday, four fifty eight on Tuesday.

660
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 2: Those are two of the five longest home runs since

661
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen by any player in his.

662
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 3: First two baseball games.

663
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 2: So first player to have multiple four hundred foot homers

664
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 2: in his first two career games since Trevor's story with

665
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: the Rockies in twenty sixteen. Balley Sports, Ohio. I would

666
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 2: get this guy into home run derby right now. I

667
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,879
Speaker 2: would fast track him into home run Derby. Hey, you've

668
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 2: only been up for a couple of games. That's okay,

669
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 2: you can be. He's sort of a slam dunk contest,

670
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 2: so you could be. Mc McClung. Yes, be like calling in.

671
00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 2: You haven't played who cares? Just hit home runs? Yeah,

672
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 2: Paul Yeah.

673
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 5: Reyes Hines for the Reds midseason call up. Two home

674
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 5: runs and two games. I did the math eighty games

675
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,240
Speaker 5: to go. He's on pace for eighty two home runs.

676
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 5: Check on that in a little bit. He's twenty three years

686
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,560

687
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,279
Speaker 2: always do. They've been the worst team in baseball for

688
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 2: the last month. Now, all of a sudden, the GM

689
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:29,959
Speaker 2: Brian Cashman is going on the road.

690
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 3: What does that mean.

691
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not a good sign, but all of

692
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,839
Speaker 2: a sudden things are so bad. The GM is now

693
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:37,439
Speaker 2: on the road.

694
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 6: Cashman's here.

695
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 5: We got to win now, Yes, yeah, he said to

696
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,880
Speaker 5: the media. Because of how we've been plainlately, I decided

697
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 5: to join us on the road and they asked why,

698
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 5: and he didn't give any.

699
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 2: Reason unless you're going on the road to do a

700
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 2: little more intel on what Aaron Boone is doing as

701
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 2: your manager. I mean, I'm shocked that Aaron Boone is

702
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 2: kept his job. I'm not for somebody being fired, but

703
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 2: understanding that franchise, if George stein Renter was still alive,

704
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 2: Aaron Boone would be gone and a while ago. But

705
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 2: we got caught up in the Yankees, and you go, well,

706
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 2: are they still the Yankees?

707
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 3: No?

708
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,280
Speaker 2: Now, they started off well, you basically have two players

709
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 2: in the lineup that are really good, and then I mean,

710
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 2: it's a poorly constructed lineup, so you're asking Judge and

711
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,399
Speaker 2: Soto to be even greater than what they already are.

712
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 2: When's the last time the Yankees were in the World

713
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 2: Series was at eight.

714
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,240
Speaker 3: Marvind and nine, two thousand and nine.

715
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 5: They're always in the playoffs. They've only missed the playoffs

716
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 5: three times in the past twelve.

717
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 2: It's hard to miss the playoffs when you spend that

718
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: much money. In fact, you should be fired if you

719
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,439
Speaker 2: don't make the playoffs with that payroll. Yes, Martin.

720
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 9: Have the Dodgers become the Yankees as the preeminent team? Sure,

721
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 9: it's almost like Georgia Alabama. Georgia is now the top

722
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,720
Speaker 9: dog no pun intended in college football from what Alabama

723
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 9: used to be. So I think it's the same correlation.

724
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 2: I've got the odds to win the college football championship

725
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 2: and it's Georgia, followed closely by Ohio State, Texas, how

726
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 2: about this Oregon? How about that Alabama? Then following them

727
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 2: a distant fifth there. Well, times have changed. Also, did

728
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 2: you see Georgia's offensive line? It averages I think six

729
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 2: seven three forty something like that. And I'll go back

730
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 2: to a conversation that I've mentioned before with a now

731
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,919
Speaker 2: retired college coach and he would listen to the show

732
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 2: and he said, oh, you keep talking about how everybody's

733
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 2: going to get money nil and that offensive lineman are

734
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 2: going to get nil.

735
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 3: And he goes, what are we going to get in pizza?

736
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 2: And I said, coach, you win with your offensive and

737
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 2: defensive line. And then he stopped because he knows that's true.

738
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 2: And this is a situation where if you look at

739
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 2: the success of Michigan and Washington and Georgia Alabama, what

740
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 2: do they all have in common. They've had really good

741
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 2: offensive lines. Washington had a really good offensive line, Michigan

742
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,720
Speaker 2: always has a good offensive line, Georgia great offensive line.

743
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: And then I even said to the coach, I said,

744
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 2: if I had nil money, I'm going to give it

745
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 2: to my offensive and defensive line because I'm starting there.

746
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 2: I got my offensive and defensive lines for the next

747
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:40,720
Speaker 2: three or four years.

748
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 3: That's where you win. So I love rubbing it in

749
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 3: his face.

750
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,839
Speaker 2: You know, when somebody says, oh, they're going to pay

751
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,240
Speaker 2: a million dollars for a defensive lineman, and I always

752
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 2: sometimes forward in an article to him, I go, hey,

753
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 2: what do you think?

754
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul.

755
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 5: So, the Georgia recruiting class for the offensive line, the

756
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 5: two lightest guys are three five. The two happiest guys

757
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 5: are three sixty five and three ninety one.

758
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 2: Okay, twenty twenty three. Now they give out the Joe

759
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 2: Moore winner for the best offensive line. Last year it

760
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 2: was Washington. They went to the national title game. Twenty

761
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 2: twenty two, Michigan went thirteen and one. Twenty twenty one,

762
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 2: Michigan went twelve and two. Twenty twenty. Alabama won a

763
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 2: national title. Twenty nineteen, LSU one defeated won a national title.

764
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 3: That's it.

765
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 2: Give me a great offensive and defensive line, certainly a

766
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 2: great offensive line, all righty One hour in the books,

767
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 2: two more to go. More phone calls here coming out,

768
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,399
Speaker 2: and the great Gus Johnson will stop by as well.

769
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 2: One hour in the books, two more to go on

770
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 2: this Wednesday,
