WEBVTT - Hour 2 - Warren Moon (06-09-20)

0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.840
<v Speaker 1>Sports Radio. Oh man, I thought morale was high. Tensions

0:00:07.840 --> 0:00:10.920
<v Speaker 1>are starting to flare a little bit. We have somehow

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>poked the bear or the tiger, the Missouri Tiger football program. Yep,

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:18.400
<v Speaker 1>in the first hour we are actually talking Missouri football.

0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I think this is due to Drew Locke in the

0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:25.840
<v Speaker 1>ESPN Redraft pool, where he would be the fifteenth overall

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 1>selection by the Denver Broncos and everybody is available in

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:34.680
<v Speaker 1>this draft. And I started to reminisce about all my

0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Missouri football memories and going back to watching Drew Locke

0:00:38.240 --> 0:00:40.880
<v Speaker 1>when I think he went from forty four to twenty

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>eight touchdown passes. Does that sound about right? His interceptions

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:46.720
<v Speaker 1>weren't that bad, but he would had a monster junior year.

0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>For some reason didn't come out Paul, and Iowa joins us, Hey, Paul,

0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:56.440
<v Speaker 1>what's on your mind? Hey? Five eleven, one seventy, thank you.

0:00:56.520 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>So you guys are really under playing the coveted telephone

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 1>trophy that was played between the Iowa State and Missouri

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 1>for decades. Okay, And the story goes that the coordinators

0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:13.160
<v Speaker 1>in the fifties or sixties literally got their wires crossed

0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 1>and could hear each other's play calls, and they played

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:20.320
<v Speaker 1>for the Telephone Trophy ever since. All right, well, thank you, Paul.

0:01:20.920 --> 0:01:23.000
<v Speaker 1>But of course that was in the fifties and sixties

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 1>where it might have mattered. I don't know if it matters.

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:28.560
<v Speaker 1>It feels like Iowa State football is on the rise

0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:31.280
<v Speaker 1>more than Missouri football is on the rise. All right, well,

0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.760
<v Speaker 1>welcome to the program. We talk Canadian Football League. By

0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 1>the way, in the first hour we cover all the

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>big stories on this program. Warren Moon in the Canadian

0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Football Hall of Fame. He'll join us coming up. Also

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:45.600
<v Speaker 1>the Pro Football Hall of Fame, he'll join us coming up.

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Michael Wilbon from ESPN will join us as well. Adam

0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:52.040
<v Speaker 1>and Chicago joins us right now. Adam, what's on your

0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>mind today? Hey guys, So Dan, I just wanted to

0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:02.080
<v Speaker 1>tell you and the boys how much the show is

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>meant to me. I used to work at sports radio

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 1>at six seventy of the Score in Chicago. I think

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 1>you're familiar with that, yes, and so I when I

0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>first started. I worked there for like nine years. But

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:16.080
<v Speaker 1>when I first started, I worked those dreaded weekend overnight shows.

0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:20.040
<v Speaker 1>And so I would come in at like midnight on

0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:23.079
<v Speaker 1>Friday and push buttons Saturday midnight and push Buttons. But

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.359
<v Speaker 1>on Fridays we would simulcast your show, Push Buttons to

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 1>play your show. And it got me at least till

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.400
<v Speaker 1>three in the morning. And you know, you're twenty years old,

0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:36.440
<v Speaker 1>twenty one years old in Chicago, all your friends are out,

0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:40.240
<v Speaker 1>you head on the l to go downtown and work

0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:43.160
<v Speaker 1>at midnight. It was at least something to look forward to.

0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Are you still in the business. No, No, I left.

0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:51.320
<v Speaker 1>I now work at a school district. I do storytelling

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and communications for them. So I've taken my my talents

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.520
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that I can tell stories and make

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.079
<v Speaker 1>sure people know that everything going on in education it

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.800
<v Speaker 1>actually quite awesome. All right, Well good luck with that,

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Adam and Glad we could entertain you. Yes, Point teaches storytelling.

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Huh wow? Does that mean he reads to kids? What

0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:15.399
<v Speaker 1>is that all about? Wow? That was a shot no offense? Yeah? Man, yeah,

0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>MC remember what I ripped Brook Lopez for being a

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I think a poetry major. Yeah, I think you called

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:30.519
<v Speaker 1>his major a hobby. Is that a major or a hobby? Well? Hey,

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:32.799
<v Speaker 1>the whole show said you'll never hit a three. Dare

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:34.440
<v Speaker 1>to hit three? Now he hits like seven a game.

0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, I said, take one in the All Star Game.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>I changed brook Lopez his career. I know. Is that

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 1>the wildest turnaround? Because I said, look, you know we

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.760
<v Speaker 1>got you into the All Star Game? Maybe we didn't,

0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 1>but I told him that can you shoot a three?

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:52.160
<v Speaker 1>And he shoots a three in the All Star Game.

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Then after that he starts shooting threes and has become

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>very prolific at shooting threes. All right, age seven seventh

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:02.400

0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:21.440

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:25.160
<v Speaker 1>o'clock games to tailgate was a party. So you really

0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.760
<v Speaker 1>can't beat that. Okay, But if you had maybe a

0:05:28.920 --> 0:05:32.440
<v Speaker 1>seven o'clock game, Hannah, how much more exciting could that be?

0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:35.599
<v Speaker 1>Where you had an evening where you could tailgate and

0:05:35.680 --> 0:05:38.240
<v Speaker 1>go to football. Yeah, you still wake up n tailgate

0:05:38.279 --> 0:05:42.400

0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:58.040
<v Speaker 1>number one? Hannah's you weren't old enough. Daniels, Jay Daniels, Okay,

0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:01.400
<v Speaker 1>that was two thousand and seven. Daniel, All that's okay.

0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 1>She can add an ass to it. She got the

0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, the right quarterback mclovin. People always add an ass.

0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:11.560
<v Speaker 1>I know that was always. I always had a problem

0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 1>with Chase Daniel. It was like, oh, you did it too, Yeah,

0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:20.840
<v Speaker 1>that's yes, Chase Daniels. Yeah. And I still say, Josh McDaniel,

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>is it McDaniels, McDaniels. You know, I do that too,

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:27.000
<v Speaker 1>And Fritzie always says, you said Josh McDaniel, I do

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 1>it's Josh McDaniels. I'm totally played. It's McDaniels. Got an ass?

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Why why does he have an ass? Yeah? Oh, I

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.720
<v Speaker 1>guess yeah, mc daniels, which is the more common name.

0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:40.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm so confused right now. What about Lloyd Daniels. That's

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.920
<v Speaker 1>that is an asset, Lloyd Daniel. How about what cal

0:06:43.040 --> 0:06:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Daniels told Fritzie to get out of town ready for

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the season. Cal Nope, it's tough around the batting cage.

0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I was always really uncomfortable around the batting cage because

0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:58.480
<v Speaker 1>that's their little workshop, and you know, members of the media,

0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:00.800
<v Speaker 1>and then you're trying to curry aver where you can

0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:03.920
<v Speaker 1>get somebody. Maybe, hey, can I can I get an

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.400
<v Speaker 1>interview with you? But you needed to have that opening

0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:09.440
<v Speaker 1>line and I'm the worst, not worth than what I did.

0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 1>That's not I thought provoking question ready for the stave

0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:14.240
<v Speaker 1>and co Well, I wouldn't expect anything deep out of

0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:16.240
<v Speaker 1>you and be just And why were you on the

0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:18.240
<v Speaker 1>field in the first place. I got a credential because

0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 1>I was working at the sports radio station. They sent

0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 1>me to cover the team, and I couldn't believe that

0:07:22.280 --> 0:07:23.720
<v Speaker 1>I could just walk on the field like that. I

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:26.040
<v Speaker 1>felt the need to shouts up the gay Wait did

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:28.480
<v Speaker 1>you just hold a microphone? Is that how? You don't

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 1>even have a microphone. I was standing next to all

0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:32.520
<v Speaker 1>the people covering the Dodgers and where like down the

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 1>third day, So how are you covering them if you're not?

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Because I was one of the producers for the new

0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 1>LA radio station, but you weren't covering them. I wasn't

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger beat ride. But I was covering LA Sports

0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:47.360
<v Speaker 1>and I was given a Dodger. But you weren't doing

0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 1>anything at the game, were you know? Okay? And like,

0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:54.120
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, I'm on the field that you're viserv

0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:55.920
<v Speaker 1>and I lived, grew up three thousand miles from here,

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 1>and I'm a Dodger stattion. Well, maybe Cal Daniels looked

0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:00.520
<v Speaker 1>at you and said, who is this poser? Year There's

0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 1>no pen, no paper, no microphone, cowboy boots and a

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:08.840
<v Speaker 1>cowboy that's odd. Yeah, Paully and tal with no no

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.000
<v Speaker 1>pads and no recorder. How do you know you quoted

0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Cal Daniels correctly when he said nope, nope, yeah, best

0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 1>locker room. Sorry. Ever, is when those guys made you

0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 1>talk to Randy Johnson. I will never I'm never going

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:21.560
<v Speaker 1>to a baseball locker room because I never want that

0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.320
<v Speaker 1>to happen to me. That was Mark Grace and Luis

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Gonzalez Randy Johnson. You did not approach on game day,

0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:33.199
<v Speaker 1>really any day, but you did not approach Randy Johnson

0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:36.880
<v Speaker 1>on game day. And I'm there when Grace is with

0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:40.319
<v Speaker 1>the Arizona Diamondbacks and I go to his locker I

0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:44.319
<v Speaker 1>say a load to him. It's at Wrigley Field, and uh,

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.520
<v Speaker 1>he's there with Luis Gonzalez and there, you know, we're

0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:50.880
<v Speaker 1>just talking bs and he goes uh. And then Randy

0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Johnson came in and he was at the other end

0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:56.480
<v Speaker 1>of the locker room and Grace goes, hey, go say

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 1>a loo to Unit. And I said, okay, you know

0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:03.520
<v Speaker 1>I saw yeah finish up. I say, he's pitching today, right, yeah, yeah,

0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I got go Saily. So I get done talking to

0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Grace and Gunzalez and I walked down and I said, uh, hey, Unit,

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.360
<v Speaker 1>and he just looked at me as if I was

0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:18.719
<v Speaker 1>batting third for the Cubs that day. He wanted to

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:22.120
<v Speaker 1>drill me. I said, hey, how are you doing, Unit?

0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 1>He's think and I don't even know if he said

0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:30.439
<v Speaker 1>good or and then he walked away and I turned

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:33.959
<v Speaker 1>around in Grace and Luis Gonzalez are just laughing. They

0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 1>think it's the funniest thing in the world that I

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:39.640
<v Speaker 1>went down there and said a load to Randy Johnson. Yeah,

0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:41.760
<v Speaker 1>what's worse? A good glared out like that? Or remember

0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 1>when Randy Johnson first it didn't start out well when

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:45.720
<v Speaker 1>he became a Yankee and he was yelling at people

0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:49.439
<v Speaker 1>in the street away from me. Here. There's certain players

0:09:49.480 --> 0:09:53.160
<v Speaker 1>who who should they're meant for certain cities and certain

0:09:53.160 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>players who are not. Remember Ed Whitson when he was

0:09:56.400 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 1>with the Yankees that didn't go well, Randy John, like

0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Tim Duncan fit San Antonio and vice versa. I don't

0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.400
<v Speaker 1>know how Tim Duncan would have been if he was

0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:09.920
<v Speaker 1>playing in New York, like that personality, like you have

0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:13.600
<v Speaker 1>to have a city that fits you, and not all

0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:18.920
<v Speaker 1>cities you know, fit these players. But Tim Duncan is

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:21.880
<v Speaker 1>just perfect for San Antonio. It felt like because he

0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:25.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't need anything, He didn't want publicity. John Stockton was

0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 1>perfect for Salt Lake City. Carl Malone could have thrived

0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:34.160
<v Speaker 1>elsewhere because I think Carl he liked that publicity. He

0:10:34.280 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 1>liked the note right. John Stockton did not want to

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>talk about himself ever, And Duncan is the same way.

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Barry Sanders. You could have put him any place and

0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:51.719
<v Speaker 1>like he didn't want to talk, but it felt like Stillwater,

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Oklahoma first college career was perfect. Yeah, Paul, Remember when

0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Dwight Howard went from Orlando to La I was like,

0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was gonna be perfect, such an entertaining,

0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:04.280
<v Speaker 1>showy guy, great interview. I was like, Oh, he's perfect

0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:06.240
<v Speaker 1>for Los Angeles. I know it's more on the court stuff,

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.080
<v Speaker 1>but I thought he was destined to be a great

0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:11.439
<v Speaker 1>LA athlete because he played so well with the media. Well.

0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.320
<v Speaker 1>I was told that he in his minded outgrown Orlando.

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.160
<v Speaker 1>He wanted to follow in Shack's footsteps. You know, he

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:20.560
<v Speaker 1>wanted to be the next Superman, and he was only there.

0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:24.880
<v Speaker 1>He was one and done in LA, right, and just

0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I think the situation there, I think Kobe trying to

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:31.400
<v Speaker 1>push him, you know, just didn't work out for a

0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:34.480
<v Speaker 1>variety of reasons. But you know, Shaq came in and

0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:38.679
<v Speaker 1>embraced LA and vice versa. His personality was so big

0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 1>that LA was perfect for him. And I think Dwight

0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:46.560
<v Speaker 1>Howard was trying to follow in Shack's footsteps. Jeff and Detroit, Hey, Jeff,

0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:49.640
<v Speaker 1>good morning, what do you have for me? What up? Though?

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.760
<v Speaker 1>One time for chat Row, Hey Dan, listen, you had

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.000
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful question and I was trying to figure out

0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:58.680
<v Speaker 1>if Dan was in charge of the Trigger Meet Smoker's

0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:02.640
<v Speaker 1>product placement, and he had a draft who would be

0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:05.080
<v Speaker 1>his quarterback and running back and wide receiver. You can

0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 1>pick from any era, but they have to play together?

0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Or are you picking so I can pick my quarterback,

0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.400
<v Speaker 1>my running back, and my wide receiver from any era,

0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:19.960
<v Speaker 1>from any era? All right, well, thank you, Jeff. Let

0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:26.720
<v Speaker 1>me think about that. Um, yeah, I don't I'd have

0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:30.120
<v Speaker 1>to think about that one, because do I take Brady

0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:33.120
<v Speaker 1>because of his success or do I take somebody who

0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:36.880
<v Speaker 1>is Yeah, I don't get Belichick to go along with Brady?

0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:41.319
<v Speaker 1>And then are we playing today's NFL? Now, I don't

0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:43.920
<v Speaker 1>know that. That feels like I'm going down a road

0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:45.480
<v Speaker 1>and I'm gonna go no. No, On second thought, I'll

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 1>take no, no, no, On second thought, I'll take Yeah,

0:12:47.160 --> 0:12:48.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm club. I think Jeff was getting in something. He

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.640
<v Speaker 1>said they have to play together, implying the chemistry the

0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:55.360
<v Speaker 1>three is important. I don't know. No, I thought he

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:58.600
<v Speaker 1>was saying that they are there on the same team. Yeah, like,

0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:01.120
<v Speaker 1>h so would you a pair of Montana and a

0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Rice because we know they worked together well or something?

0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:05.720
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's part of the thinking. I don't know. But

0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:07.800
<v Speaker 1>then I can take another running back. I don't have

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.280
<v Speaker 1>to take Roger Craig. Right, you could put Barry Sanders,

0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.640
<v Speaker 1>which is why he asked a question kind of, mister Detroit,

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I would probably go Aikman, Irvin and Emmett because they

0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 1>played together. I already have that advantage, unless you're gonna

0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:34.720
<v Speaker 1>go Bradshaw, Swan Franco Harris would be a possibility. But

0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:37.200
<v Speaker 1>if I've already got my guys who have played together,

0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.839
<v Speaker 1>and they're all Hall of famers, so I'd feel pretty

0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>good going into battle with those guys. I'm trying to think,

0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:52.680
<v Speaker 1>what's the best trio in NFL history? Yes, Todd, I

0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:55.840
<v Speaker 1>was disappointed because you rave about Lay being your favorite

0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:57.800
<v Speaker 1>quarterback of all time. But you know, if you weren't

0:13:57.800 --> 0:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>looking at three that were on the same team, if

0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 1>you're independently pick who you thought was the best quarterback,

0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 1>running back, in wide receiver. Just when I thought he

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:06.839
<v Speaker 1>was getting at that, you would go with always. Why

0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I've heard from you twice today about Drew Locke and

0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:14.840
<v Speaker 1>John Elway. As a former girlfriend of mine once said,

0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:20.120
<v Speaker 1>free your mind, the resta will follow him, Okay, as

0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Paulie says, we're too far down the road on that one.

0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.760
<v Speaker 1>We free your mind, the rest will follow Jamie, and

0:14:25.800 --> 0:14:30.320
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina will join us. Hey, Jane Hey, Dan six four,

0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:33.000
<v Speaker 1>two fifteen, going back to work today, and I'm glad

0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:34.760
<v Speaker 1>I get to talk to you, But I have a

0:14:34.800 --> 0:14:39.160
<v Speaker 1>funny story. I don't screw it up quickly. Randy Johnson

0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:41.080
<v Speaker 1>was pool side when I was a little kid, and

0:14:41.120 --> 0:14:43.440
<v Speaker 1>I went to try and get his autograph and he

0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:45.360
<v Speaker 1>looked up at me, and I'm not sure if what

0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:47.280
<v Speaker 1>his next action was gonna be, but he was so

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:51.600
<v Speaker 1>intimidating that I just took off and couldn't get his autograph.

0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:54.120
<v Speaker 1>And I just like told my dad. My dad saw

0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:56.040
<v Speaker 1>him layer that night, said he was really friendly, but

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.320
<v Speaker 1>he just looked so great and he was sitting pool side.

0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:02.520
<v Speaker 1>I just this funny story. All right, Well, thank you, Jamie,

0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:05.720
<v Speaker 1>and good luck going back to work. Yeah. Unit is

0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:08.640
<v Speaker 1>because he's so tall, and I've had two run ins

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:11.000
<v Speaker 1>with him. Now I have a great relationship with him now.

0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:15.600
<v Speaker 1>But I remember when he was in Seattle and the

0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:20.720
<v Speaker 1>entire starting lineup surrounded me at the batting cage and

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>wanted to know why I didn't talk about Edgar Martinez more.

0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Now I had him all there, and Unit was, you know,

0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:32.120
<v Speaker 1>He's staring down at me, like, why don't we give

0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Edgar Martinez more love on Sports Center, and I said,

0:15:35.680 --> 0:15:38.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't run the network. You never you know,

0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.040
<v Speaker 1>you don't show his highlights. And I was thinking, nobody

0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:44.440
<v Speaker 1>wants to see on Edgar Martinez base knock the other

0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 1>way and he didn't play the field. Yeah, Paul Daniel

0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 1>remember this, Randy Johnson. I think what the Diamondbacks had

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:53.080
<v Speaker 1>a perfect game maybe oh four oh five, and Fritzie

0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:55.240
<v Speaker 1>called to get Randy Johnson on the show Perfect Game.

0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Of course you want Randy Johnson on the show. Randy

0:15:57.400 --> 0:16:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Johnson told the pr person, I'll only come on if

0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:03.040
<v Speaker 1>they let my catcher. I think his name is Robbie Hammock,

0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:05.360
<v Speaker 1>because he has to be involved in the interview too.

0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>If you enter both of us, I'll come on your show.

0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:09.360
<v Speaker 1>And that was the first time he ever did an

0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:11.840
<v Speaker 1>interview with you on the radio show. Yeah, but he

0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:13.800
<v Speaker 1>had to have his catcher. He said, we did it together,

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>wasn't just me, And that's the only way we got

0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Randy Johnson. But I thought that was very telling about him. Yes,

0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:19.720
<v Speaker 1>for too, I'm sure he's very different. On Game Day

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the locker room and you were set up to fail

0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:23.240
<v Speaker 1>when they told you they played a joke on your

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.760
<v Speaker 1>go talk to him. He likes to chat. But we

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:27.480
<v Speaker 1>had him once a long time ago on a show

0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.320
<v Speaker 1>up close and he was doing All Star time, and

0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:33.960
<v Speaker 1>he couldn't have been nicer. He was just a lovely

0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>man and just very respectful and sweet. And he didn't

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:39.760
<v Speaker 1>as intimidating as he looks as this big, tall presence.

0:16:39.960 --> 0:16:42.600
<v Speaker 1>He was just he couldn't have been kinder and appreciative

0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:44.880
<v Speaker 1>of being on So I thought that was very cool,

0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:46.360
<v Speaker 1>very different than what he would look like if you

0:16:46.360 --> 0:16:48.880
<v Speaker 1>had just met him. Thank you too, well? Was there

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:51.280
<v Speaker 1>a story there? Now? It was a sharing experience with

0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Randy people. He's got a bad rap like I think

0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 1>over the years as being this scary, intimidating person. Just

0:16:56.840 --> 0:16:58.960
<v Speaker 1>because he's like that on the mound doesn't mean that's

0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:02.280
<v Speaker 1>the person is I just thought that would be an

0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:04.720
<v Speaker 1>interesting little footnote this year. But obviously I've missed the

0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:10.040
<v Speaker 1>mark there somewhere. You know, all right, he's sweet. I was.

0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:12.679
<v Speaker 1>He was shockingly nice. I thought he'd have an attitude

0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:13.760
<v Speaker 1>or like you know that he was doing us a

0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:16.000
<v Speaker 1>big favor. He was showing up where he give you this, Claire,

0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:19.080
<v Speaker 1>or he wasn't like Dave Stewart staring down the catchers, admit,

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:23.720
<v Speaker 1>obviously I missed the marks. That's such a great line.

0:17:24.840 --> 0:17:27.119
<v Speaker 1>That wasn't Bronko's light either, although he did picture the

0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:31.280
<v Speaker 1>astros briefly take a break. Here, more phone calls coming up.

0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:36.639
<v Speaker 1>The best man, Dave Stewart will wheel him back in

0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:42.960
<v Speaker 1>that reference. Yeah you remember Dave, Yeah, I do, stared down. Yeah,

0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:45.480
<v Speaker 1>all right, we gotta be about forty five fifty years

0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:48.000
<v Speaker 1>old to get the Dave Steward most of your references,

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.119
<v Speaker 1>you have to be at least forty five years You

0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:46.480
<v Speaker 1>as pretty a deep ball as anybody I've ever seen.

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Jeff George was another one who threw a great deep ball.

0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 1>Warren's were usually caught, though, as opposed to Jeff George's

0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.119
<v Speaker 1>and the Hall of Famer joining us on the program,

0:18:55.240 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 1>Good Morning, Warren, how are you? That's not fair? Jeff

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:03.720
<v Speaker 1>George did have a talented arm, though. Man, he could

0:19:03.720 --> 0:19:06.400
<v Speaker 1>throw it from every angle, from every platform. I love

0:19:06.480 --> 0:19:10.240
<v Speaker 1>watching him throw the football. Most physically talented quarterback you've

0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:14.920
<v Speaker 1>ever seen. Wow, you gotta go by errors Like John

0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Elway was pretty physically talented during the time that I play.

0:19:17.760 --> 0:19:21.560
<v Speaker 1>You're looking now at Patrick Mahomes, I mean, as physically talented.

0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:26.200
<v Speaker 1>He is. Also Aaron Rodgers, There's been There's been a

0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:28.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of them, so I don't know, it's hard to

0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:30.879
<v Speaker 1>say one, but those guys that I just named are

0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:33.520
<v Speaker 1>pretty much in that same class where they can throw

0:19:33.600 --> 0:19:36.520
<v Speaker 1>the ball from any angle, any platform, feet don't have

0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:38.240
<v Speaker 1>to be together. One of them throw the ball with

0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:40.320
<v Speaker 1>his left hand in a game and then completed one,

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:44.160
<v Speaker 1>So that tells you how talented those guys are. How

0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:46.760
<v Speaker 1>helpless is that feeling when you're on the sidelines and

0:19:46.840 --> 0:19:50.159
<v Speaker 1>you're watching a quarterback lead that two minute drill and

0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:54.040
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing you can do. Believe me, I've been there,

0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:56.640
<v Speaker 1>because I remember in Denver, you know, we got gave

0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:59.080
<v Speaker 1>the ball back to John Elway with a minute forty

0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:01.760
<v Speaker 1>eight left on his own five yard line, and I'm

0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:04.439
<v Speaker 1>sitting on the sidelines hoping our defense can get them

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:06.320
<v Speaker 1>stops so we can win this playoff game. And he

0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:10.680
<v Speaker 1>takes them down, converts two fourth down situations, and ends

0:20:10.760 --> 0:20:14.639
<v Speaker 1>up going down and getting the final score to beat us.

0:20:14.680 --> 0:20:17.320
<v Speaker 1>So there was nothing I could do over on that sideline,

0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 1>as you said, because my job, if anything, I could

0:20:21.080 --> 0:20:22.960
<v Speaker 1>have got one more first down and hopefully ran the

0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.639
<v Speaker 1>clock out, but that didn't happen. So there's nothing you

0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:27.920
<v Speaker 1>can do if you don't play defense. When you came

0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:31.320
<v Speaker 1>out of Washington and you had an unbelievable Rose Bowl performance,

0:20:31.359 --> 0:20:34.720
<v Speaker 1>but why were you told you weren't drafted? You know,

0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:36.680
<v Speaker 1>a lot of different reasons. It had nothing to do

0:20:36.800 --> 0:20:39.520
<v Speaker 1>with the real reason I think. You know, they said

0:20:39.520 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't come out of a pro style offense. They

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.360
<v Speaker 1>said that a lot of teams who never even came

0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:47.760
<v Speaker 1>out to look at me, thought I wasn't tall enough,

0:20:47.840 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't big enough. You know, I'm the same same

0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:53.159
<v Speaker 1>height as I am right now. I was probably a

0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:56.240
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and five pounds at the time, which which

0:20:56.359 --> 0:20:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I think was pretty big enough to play quarterback. And

0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:01.639
<v Speaker 1>just a lot of different reasons it didn't make a

0:21:01.680 --> 0:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>whole lot of sense. But the biggest thing I think

0:21:04.160 --> 0:21:05.840
<v Speaker 1>was they said that I didn't come out of a

0:21:05.920 --> 0:21:08.919
<v Speaker 1>pro style offense and we didn't run a pro style offense.

0:21:09.000 --> 0:21:12.000
<v Speaker 1>But that didn't mean that I couldn't navigate into a

0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:13.960
<v Speaker 1>pro style offense if that's what I was asked to do.

0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I ran the offenses that I was asked to run.

0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:19.159
<v Speaker 1>And that's what good quarterbacks can do. They can make

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:22.520
<v Speaker 1>adjustments to different types of styles if they have an

0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:25.280
<v Speaker 1>ability that they need to play the position. And playing

0:21:25.359 --> 0:21:27.359
<v Speaker 1>the position for as long as you did, there were

0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:30.480
<v Speaker 1>code words that you would hear that would mean something.

0:21:30.720 --> 0:21:32.440
<v Speaker 1>They would it would mean more to you than it

0:21:32.480 --> 0:21:36.320
<v Speaker 1>would mean because they're saying, well, you didn't run a

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 1>pro style offense, not that you couldn't adapt to run

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 1>a pro style offense, but all of a sudden, we've

0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:45.320
<v Speaker 1>labeled you. No, Cam Newton didn't run a pro style offense. No,

0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:48.639
<v Speaker 1>but lots of guys didn't run pro style offenses. But

0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:52.320
<v Speaker 1>there's guys that ran option offenses in college, but they

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 1>still went into the still got a chance to play

0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:57.440
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL and at least show what they could do.

0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:01.600
<v Speaker 1>So I wasn't taking that. Even Doug Williams, who ran

0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:03.920
<v Speaker 1>a pro style offense at Grammling the year that I

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:06.920
<v Speaker 1>came out, he was he was a first round draft pick,

0:22:07.000 --> 0:22:09.440
<v Speaker 1>but he was. He went to Tampa Bay, which was

0:22:09.960 --> 0:22:12.280
<v Speaker 1>John McKay at the time, and John McKay had African

0:22:12.280 --> 0:22:15.800
<v Speaker 1>American quarterbacks a bunch at USC, so he was used

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:19.439
<v Speaker 1>to having an African American quarterback. But if Doug wouldn't

0:22:19.480 --> 0:22:23.359
<v Speaker 1>have win at thirteen, which was thirteenth pick, he should

0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:25.600
<v Speaker 1>have went before that. But but he went to thirteen.

0:22:25.640 --> 0:22:27.639
<v Speaker 1>If he doesn't go to Tampa Bay at thirteen, who

0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:29.440
<v Speaker 1>he might not have went in the first round either.

0:22:29.560 --> 0:22:32.960
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's just the time that we lived in

0:22:33.720 --> 0:22:36.920
<v Speaker 1>there was a mentality and a stigma about African American quarterbacks,

0:22:36.960 --> 0:22:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and I knew it was going to be difficult for

0:22:38.359 --> 0:22:40.399
<v Speaker 1>me to play that position when I chose to do it,

0:22:41.160 --> 0:22:44.800
<v Speaker 1>so it didn't surprise me when things got a little

0:22:44.840 --> 0:22:48.040
<v Speaker 1>more difficult as I got into college. You hear this

0:22:48.160 --> 0:22:51.440
<v Speaker 1>conversation now where people are saying, hey, maybe it's time

0:22:51.480 --> 0:22:55.240
<v Speaker 1>to give Colin Kaepernick a chance. I just wonder is

0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:57.879
<v Speaker 1>it a legitimate chance for him? He's gonna want to start.

0:22:58.440 --> 0:23:00.399
<v Speaker 1>I think everything he's gone through, you don't want to

0:23:00.400 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 1>go back into the NFL and say, Okay, hey, we

0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 1>gave you your job, now go away. You should be happy.

0:23:06.200 --> 0:23:08.879
<v Speaker 1>He's a competitor like anybody is. He wants to start.

0:23:08.960 --> 0:23:13.000
<v Speaker 1>But do you think Kaepernick, why now is somebody going

0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:15.280
<v Speaker 1>to give him a chance when he hasn't played in

0:23:15.400 --> 0:23:18.119
<v Speaker 1>four years? That now we give him a chance? And

0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:21.600
<v Speaker 1>how do you think he would accept that opportunity? Yeah?

0:23:21.600 --> 0:23:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I think the only way he should be given a

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:25.960
<v Speaker 1>chance is that if he can go through a workout

0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:28.440
<v Speaker 1>for a team and pass their workout, because he, like

0:23:28.560 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you said, he hasn't played in three or four years.

0:23:31.320 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 1>A lot has changed in the game, the way the

0:23:33.080 --> 0:23:36.280
<v Speaker 1>game is being played right now, and you want to

0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:38.000
<v Speaker 1>find out from him. You want to sit down with

0:23:38.119 --> 0:23:40.480
<v Speaker 1>him and find out where his mindset is, because as

0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:42.480
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback in the NFL, you have to be kind

0:23:42.520 --> 0:23:45.280
<v Speaker 1>of all in, especially if you're trying to get a

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:48.280
<v Speaker 1>job and trying to recreate yourself in the league. It's

0:23:48.280 --> 0:23:51.080
<v Speaker 1>not like he's an established guy and he can maybe

0:23:51.160 --> 0:23:53.600
<v Speaker 1>start doing some things off the field. He's trying to

0:23:53.680 --> 0:23:55.560
<v Speaker 1>get back into it, so he's got to really be

0:23:55.680 --> 0:23:58.919
<v Speaker 1>focused and all in on this because, more so than

0:23:58.920 --> 0:24:02.280
<v Speaker 1>any other position in sports, quarterback you better be all

0:24:02.359 --> 0:24:04.359
<v Speaker 1>in or it's not going to work well for you.

0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:07.560
<v Speaker 1>So that would be my biggest question to him. Does

0:24:07.600 --> 0:24:10.560
<v Speaker 1>he really want to play football? And then can he

0:24:10.680 --> 0:24:13.360
<v Speaker 1>pass the workout of what a team would put him through?

0:24:13.720 --> 0:24:15.680
<v Speaker 1>And then is he going to be focused enough to

0:24:16.280 --> 0:24:18.679
<v Speaker 1>get up to speed to learn a team system. Because

0:24:19.280 --> 0:24:21.720
<v Speaker 1>Cam Newton is sitting out there right now and he's

0:24:21.760 --> 0:24:26.520
<v Speaker 1>not a starter. Jamis Winston is a backup somewhere. This

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:29.200
<v Speaker 1>guy hasn't played in four years, so if he expects

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:31.120
<v Speaker 1>to come in and be a starter, that's not gonna happen.

0:24:31.160 --> 0:24:32.879
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna have to work his way back in like

0:24:33.040 --> 0:24:35.280
<v Speaker 1>some of the other guys who have been playing each

0:24:35.320 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 1>and every week. I was reading a column by Charles

0:24:37.920 --> 0:24:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Robinson on Yahoo's saying, Roger Goodell has a small window

0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:44.520
<v Speaker 1>to save his legacy and have a team signed Colin Kaepernick.

0:24:45.160 --> 0:24:49.960
<v Speaker 1>How does the commissioner convince a team to sign Colin Kaepernick.

0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand this. Yeah, I don't know if that's

0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:56.240
<v Speaker 1>going to happen either. He has a lot of power,

0:24:56.359 --> 0:24:58.720
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think he has that type of power

0:24:58.800 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 1>because again, he works for the owners, and the owners

0:25:01.680 --> 0:25:04.159
<v Speaker 1>kind of make the decisions on how they want to

0:25:04.240 --> 0:25:07.240
<v Speaker 1>do things, and you know, there's got to be an

0:25:07.280 --> 0:25:10.920
<v Speaker 1>owner out there there's willing to take that opportunity to

0:25:11.000 --> 0:25:13.119
<v Speaker 1>sign him. I know the Seahawks had him in here

0:25:13.440 --> 0:25:15.879
<v Speaker 1>a number of years ago and sat him down, and

0:25:16.320 --> 0:25:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I think they got a chance to learn who he was.

0:25:19.200 --> 0:25:21.639
<v Speaker 1>They got a chance to see him physically, and they

0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:23.600
<v Speaker 1>put him. You know, that was kind of part of

0:25:23.640 --> 0:25:26.280
<v Speaker 1>their scouting process that if we needed a quarterback, we

0:25:26.359 --> 0:25:28.080
<v Speaker 1>knew this is a guy that maybe we could go to.

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:30.680
<v Speaker 1>So they know who he is, They've they've sat down

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:33.440
<v Speaker 1>with him, and I think this would be a good

0:25:33.480 --> 0:25:36.560
<v Speaker 1>fit for him if again, he answers all the other

0:25:36.640 --> 0:25:39.360
<v Speaker 1>questions we talked about, whether he can pass the workout

0:25:39.440 --> 0:25:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and whether he's really totally into playing football, because Pete

0:25:42.680 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Carroll's is open minded a coach that there is in

0:25:44.880 --> 0:25:47.919
<v Speaker 1>the league, and the same thing with the ownership up here,

0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:50.920
<v Speaker 1>so I think it could work up here. But again

0:25:51.040 --> 0:25:54.040
<v Speaker 1>those other questions have to be answered. He's Warren Moon

0:25:54.200 --> 0:25:57.200
<v Speaker 1>the CFL and NFL Hall of Famer. You're the only

0:25:57.320 --> 0:26:01.000
<v Speaker 1>player in both CFL and NFL fame? Is that that right?

0:26:01.960 --> 0:26:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I am? And only one other coach I think, Bud Grant.

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:08.879
<v Speaker 1>Bud Grant is a coach in the Olive Fame in

0:26:09.160 --> 0:26:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Canada and also in the NFL two. So what did

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:13.680
<v Speaker 1>you get for going You get a jacket for going

0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:16.520
<v Speaker 1>into the CFL Hall of Fame? I do. I got

0:26:16.600 --> 0:26:21.200
<v Speaker 1>a jacket, Anni Bust kind of the same thing. Yeah,

0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:28.560
<v Speaker 1>a better looking jacket, Canton or the Hamilton. The jacket

0:26:28.680 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 1>might look better in Canada because it's black. It's kind

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:37.720
<v Speaker 1>of hard to wear your pro football jacket. Yeah, the

0:26:37.840 --> 0:26:40.119
<v Speaker 1>gold jacket is cool. You love you that you have

0:26:40.359 --> 0:26:42.400
<v Speaker 1>one in your closet, but it's not something you're gonna

0:26:42.440 --> 0:26:45.960
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna wear a swag every weekend, you know. Yeah,

0:26:46.040 --> 0:26:48.480
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to have an outfit that goes along with that.

0:26:48.760 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 1>That gold jacket there, and then what's your number inside

0:26:53.280 --> 0:26:56.160
<v Speaker 1>on your Pro Football Hall of Fame jacket? I think

0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:59.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm two eighty three. Eighty three. Yeah, that was when

0:26:59.119 --> 0:27:01.720
<v Speaker 1>Tony Dungee show me that. That was really cool. When

0:27:01.760 --> 0:27:05.320
<v Speaker 1>you see that number in there, that inside patch, it's

0:27:05.320 --> 0:27:08.360
<v Speaker 1>pretty cool. You are the Yeah, you know exactly where

0:27:08.400 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 1>you stand in the history of the game. Your salary

0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:16.440
<v Speaker 1>first year in the CFL was what nineteen seventy eight,

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I got thirty five thousand to sign and my first

0:27:21.119 --> 0:27:25.480
<v Speaker 1>year's salary was forty five thousand. Wow, And that was

0:27:25.520 --> 0:27:28.600
<v Speaker 1>considered like an equivalent to a second round contract in

0:27:28.640 --> 0:27:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the NFL. Well, you had that money would go a

0:27:32.600 --> 0:27:36.480
<v Speaker 1>long way in Edmonton, it did pretty well. But I

0:27:36.600 --> 0:27:39.560
<v Speaker 1>was living in Seattle at the time. But when I

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:42.280
<v Speaker 1>first came to the NFL, and I was like a

0:27:42.440 --> 0:27:45.359
<v Speaker 1>true free agent and highest paid player in the league.

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:47.680
<v Speaker 1>When I came into the league, I signed for five

0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:52.160
<v Speaker 1>years for five point five million. Wow. But did change.

0:27:52.200 --> 0:27:54.879
<v Speaker 1>They've changed a little since then, but didn't you have

0:27:55.080 --> 0:27:58.440
<v Speaker 1>a contract that you were always going to be one

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:01.720
<v Speaker 1>of the I forget what it was, but didn't you

0:28:01.840 --> 0:28:05.480
<v Speaker 1>get raises depending on other quarterbacks getting raises? Did your

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:07.840
<v Speaker 1>agent negotiate that where you were always going to be

0:28:07.880 --> 0:28:11.840
<v Speaker 1>in the top five in salary? Yeah? My second contract

0:28:11.960 --> 0:28:14.119
<v Speaker 1>was like that. Yeah, it was called adjustable years, so

0:28:14.960 --> 0:28:19.200
<v Speaker 1>nobody could ever be paid more than myself. And I

0:28:19.359 --> 0:28:22.600
<v Speaker 1>imagine something like that would happen to today. You look

0:28:22.640 --> 0:28:25.040
<v Speaker 1>at like a Dak Prescott who's worried about, you know,

0:28:25.160 --> 0:28:28.480
<v Speaker 1>his contractor, or Patrick Mahomes who probably is going to

0:28:28.520 --> 0:28:31.320
<v Speaker 1>be one of the top quarterbacks from here going forward,

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:33.359
<v Speaker 1>you would think they'd want to have something like that

0:28:33.440 --> 0:28:35.239
<v Speaker 1>in their deal if it's allowed. Some of those things

0:28:35.280 --> 0:28:38.880
<v Speaker 1>aren't allowed anymore, but if that was allowed. Do you

0:28:38.960 --> 0:28:41.680
<v Speaker 1>know if this is true that the story is Lebron

0:28:41.840 --> 0:28:44.880
<v Speaker 1>James met his agent, Rich Paul because Rich was wearing

0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:49.200
<v Speaker 1>a Warren Moon Jersey and Rich was walking through an airport.

0:28:49.280 --> 0:28:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Lebron stopped him and ask him where he got to Jersey.

0:28:51.560 --> 0:28:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Did you ever hear that story? Yeah? I heard that story,

0:28:54.880 --> 0:28:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and the next time I ever see Lebron, I'm going

0:28:57.120 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 1>to mention that to him and see if it's really true,

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:03.920
<v Speaker 1>why'd you pick one? You know, it was a number

0:29:04.000 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 1>to me that was different. It was in my mind

0:29:08.200 --> 0:29:10.680
<v Speaker 1>the number one is something I always strived for to

0:29:10.800 --> 0:29:13.320
<v Speaker 1>be the best. And then I also felt like as

0:29:13.960 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 1>as my teammates looked at me as the leader on

0:29:16.240 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>a team, that number one is going to always remind

0:29:18.880 --> 0:29:20.320
<v Speaker 1>them is that's what we want to be as a

0:29:20.360 --> 0:29:23.120
<v Speaker 1>team as well. So it had significance as far as

0:29:23.160 --> 0:29:25.720
<v Speaker 1>we're I wanted to finish personally and where our team

0:29:25.880 --> 0:29:28.720
<v Speaker 1>should want to finish as a team. Were you there

0:29:28.800 --> 0:29:33.600
<v Speaker 1>when Renfro Mike Renfro the game against the Steelers, but

0:29:33.840 --> 0:29:36.240
<v Speaker 1>he was not there yet. No, that was three years

0:29:36.280 --> 0:29:38.920
<v Speaker 1>before I got Yeah, because Houston had some tough losses.

0:29:39.160 --> 0:29:41.920
<v Speaker 1>And you know that Renfro catch they said wasn't a

0:29:42.040 --> 0:29:46.840
<v Speaker 1>catch that was against Pittsburgh, right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I

0:29:46.920 --> 0:29:49.120
<v Speaker 1>watched that game up in Canada. I think I was

0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:50.720
<v Speaker 1>up there at the time because Earl Campbell when I

0:29:50.840 --> 0:29:52.800
<v Speaker 1>came out the same year and he went to he

0:29:52.920 --> 0:29:55.600
<v Speaker 1>went to Houston as their number one overall pick, but

0:29:56.040 --> 0:29:58.240
<v Speaker 1>I went to Canada, So I watched a lot of

0:29:58.360 --> 0:30:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Houston Orlder games on television man. Earl was something different though,

0:30:02.360 --> 0:30:05.520
<v Speaker 1>But that's that style though. I mean, we see Derrick

0:30:05.600 --> 0:30:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Henry now. But Earl took on everybody. Yeah, and everybody

0:30:10.920 --> 0:30:12.760
<v Speaker 1>in the stadium knew he was getting the ball pretty

0:30:12.840 --> 0:30:15.720
<v Speaker 1>much every play, and he still couldn't be stopped. And

0:30:15.840 --> 0:30:18.720
<v Speaker 1>when I got to Houston, it was about his sixth year.

0:30:19.520 --> 0:30:21.200
<v Speaker 1>He was a little bit banged up by then, and

0:30:21.200 --> 0:30:22.920
<v Speaker 1>he ended up getting traded the next year to New

0:30:23.000 --> 0:30:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Orleans with with bum phillips because he went to New Orleans.

0:30:25.680 --> 0:30:29.680
<v Speaker 1>But I saw glimpses of who Earl still was during

0:30:29.720 --> 0:30:32.320
<v Speaker 1>that one year that I played with him, one and

0:30:32.320 --> 0:30:34.239
<v Speaker 1>a half a year, excuse me. And it's still one

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:37.880
<v Speaker 1>of those highlights, doesn't. He hit Isaiah robertson of the

0:30:38.000 --> 0:30:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Rams right in the Sternham. He runs right through him

0:30:40.960 --> 0:30:42.720
<v Speaker 1>and almost steps on him and goes on and the

0:30:42.920 --> 0:30:45.440
<v Speaker 1>ends them ends up with no pads on it. At

0:30:45.440 --> 0:30:50.760
<v Speaker 1>the same time, Terways dripped off of any other player

0:30:50.800 --> 0:30:55.080
<v Speaker 1>in the league. Oh, it's good to talk to you, Warren.

0:30:55.120 --> 0:30:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I hope you're doing well. We appreciate your perspective on

0:30:57.720 --> 0:31:00.400
<v Speaker 1>all of this, and thanks for joining us. I am

0:31:00.480 --> 0:31:02.800
<v Speaker 1>doing great and I'm glad you're doing as well and

0:31:03.640 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>look forward to talking to you down the road. Thank you, Warren.

0:31:06.120 --> 0:31:10.800
<v Speaker 1>That's Warren Moon. Five great cups for him and pro

0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:14.120
<v Speaker 1>football and the Canadian Football League all of fame there.

0:31:14.560 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 1>You got a bust, you got a jacket. Nice. Yeah,

0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.440
<v Speaker 1>he threw a great deep ball, beautiful deep ball. And

0:31:21.600 --> 0:31:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I love the Oilers. Ernest Gibbons. Yeah, Paul. He joined

0:31:26.200 --> 0:31:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the Oilers in eighty four and he was like this

0:31:28.800 --> 0:31:31.680
<v Speaker 1>mystery out of Canada where I mean, you guys got

0:31:31.920 --> 0:31:33.719
<v Speaker 1>like you knew him because of what he did in college,

0:31:33.920 --> 0:31:36.680
<v Speaker 1>But younger people, you didn't see CFL highlights, you didn't

0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:39.520
<v Speaker 1>see anything. So he was just as legendary CFL athlete

0:31:39.560 --> 0:31:41.920
<v Speaker 1>and great college quarterback who was about to join the Oilers.

0:31:41.960 --> 0:31:43.680
<v Speaker 1>And I remember it was a really big deal when

0:31:43.680 --> 0:31:47.959
<v Speaker 1>he joined the NFL. And then because we assumed if

0:31:48.040 --> 0:31:50.720
<v Speaker 1>you went to the Canadian Football League that you couldn't

0:31:50.960 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 1>throw the ball, that you were more of a running quarterback,

0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:59.120
<v Speaker 1>athletic quarterback. And Doug Flute he had to go up there,

0:31:59.480 --> 0:32:03.200
<v Speaker 1>which he shouldn't have, but he did. And you know,

0:32:03.320 --> 0:32:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Joe thiseman went up there, and Joe played at Notre Dame.

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:09.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Joe might have gotten drafted by the Dolphins,

0:32:10.120 --> 0:32:13.760
<v Speaker 1>like really really late. But you watched Warren Moon throw

0:32:13.760 --> 0:32:17.040
<v Speaker 1>a football and he went, that's not the reason why

0:32:17.120 --> 0:32:19.800
<v Speaker 1>he hadn't been in the NFL, because he could throw

0:32:19.960 --> 0:32:23.760
<v Speaker 1>a great deep ball. Tony Dungee talked, would tell that

0:32:23.880 --> 0:32:28.360
<v Speaker 1>story about he had a wide receiver. I forget what, mccnoval,

0:32:28.480 --> 0:32:30.920
<v Speaker 1>do you remember the wide receiver that Tony talked about,

0:32:31.000 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Jacob Reid At the Jacob Reid would drop the ball

0:32:33.560 --> 0:32:36.160
<v Speaker 1>all the time. All of a sudden, Warren Moon comes in.

0:32:36.560 --> 0:32:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Jacob Jake Reid has this unbelievable season because Warren Moon

0:32:40.280 --> 0:32:43.320
<v Speaker 1>put it exactly where he needed to put it in

0:32:43.440 --> 0:32:47.400
<v Speaker 1>between the numbers. Yes, Tony said, I mean Warren threw

0:32:47.480 --> 0:32:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the ball, beautiful ball there and Jake Reid. All right,

0:32:51.600 --> 0:32:54.920
<v Speaker 1>we'll take a break here. Michael Wilbon joins us, coming

0:32:54.960 --> 0:32:57.920
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit later on baseball, still in the

0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:03.520
<v Speaker 1>on deck circle. Maybe we get some movement here. And

0:33:04.840 --> 0:33:07.160
<v Speaker 1>I hate to build up anybody's hopes with this, I

0:33:07.480 --> 0:33:09.400
<v Speaker 1>hate to tear them down too, but I'm just trying

0:33:09.440 --> 0:33:12.160
<v Speaker 1>to be realistic with what I'm hearing. What I'm seeing

0:33:12.200 --> 0:33:14.840
<v Speaker 1>what I'm reading, and I don't know any more than

0:33:14.920 --> 0:33:18.320
<v Speaker 1>probably what you do. But you want to apply logic

0:33:18.400 --> 0:33:20.720
<v Speaker 1>to this, that you assume the owners would want to

0:33:20.760 --> 0:33:22.480
<v Speaker 1>come back and the players would want to come back,

0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:25.080
<v Speaker 1>and that you could meet somewhere in the middle, and

0:33:25.240 --> 0:33:28.920
<v Speaker 1>we could have a seventy five games schedule season and

0:33:29.280 --> 0:33:32.520
<v Speaker 1>you could get pay commensurate too how many games you're

0:33:32.520 --> 0:33:37.320
<v Speaker 1>going to play. It just doesn't feel like everybody has

0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:41.440
<v Speaker 1>the same goal here. I saw will bon and Kornheiser

0:33:41.520 --> 0:33:43.840
<v Speaker 1>go off on this yesterday on part of the interruption,

0:33:44.120 --> 0:33:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and that maybe say to Todd, we should have willbon On.

0:33:47.960 --> 0:33:49.760
<v Speaker 1>I love to get him riled up to And we

0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:52.800
<v Speaker 1>do have the schedule for the NBA with the regular

0:33:52.880 --> 0:33:56.960
<v Speaker 1>season and then the postseason here, and you know, it's

0:33:57.000 --> 0:34:00.200
<v Speaker 1>a pretty tight window. And if you're the NBA going

0:34:00.240 --> 0:34:02.440
<v Speaker 1>to be going up against the NFL first couple of

0:34:02.520 --> 0:34:04.480
<v Speaker 1>weeks in when you're going to have your late playoff

0:34:04.520 --> 0:34:07.120
<v Speaker 1>games in the NBA Finals, got to stay away from

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Sunday's Sunday Night Monday Thursday and try to sprinkle your

0:34:12.719 --> 0:34:15.920
<v Speaker 1>product in accordingly. All right, we'll take a break. More

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Show saw this article on cbssports dot com jumping

0:34:38.640 --> 0:34:43.120
<v Speaker 1>on my bandwagon, Brad Bodkin saying the Rockets could make

0:34:43.160 --> 0:34:46.680
<v Speaker 1>a Cinderella run. Yeah, if I was going to put money,

0:34:46.800 --> 0:34:49.800
<v Speaker 1>which I don't, but if I was, I put some

0:34:49.920 --> 0:34:53.560
<v Speaker 1>money on the Rockets to maybe surprise people as a

0:34:53.880 --> 0:34:56.839
<v Speaker 1>one of those longer shots to win the championship. Now,

0:34:56.920 --> 0:35:00.880
<v Speaker 1>they were only together for fourteen games with their current lineup,

0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:04.600
<v Speaker 1>and they didn't play well towards the end of the

0:35:04.719 --> 0:35:09.840
<v Speaker 1>regular season when the lockout happened. But you know, the

0:35:10.360 --> 0:35:14.280
<v Speaker 1>NBA playoffs are really predictable for the most part because

0:35:14.360 --> 0:35:18.800
<v Speaker 1>of the seven game series, the East West format. But

0:35:19.080 --> 0:35:21.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, this is different. This is something different. No

0:35:21.400 --> 0:35:24.680
<v Speaker 1>home court advantage, no fans, and teams go in there

0:35:24.800 --> 0:35:27.160
<v Speaker 1>based on what kind of condition they're going to be

0:35:27.239 --> 0:35:31.480
<v Speaker 1>in and what kind of rhythm they can find in

0:35:31.560 --> 0:35:34.520
<v Speaker 1>a short period of time. I get nervous with the

0:35:34.640 --> 0:35:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Rockets because I just don't know if Harden is going

0:35:38.440 --> 0:35:41.080
<v Speaker 1>to give it or take it the way Russell Westbrook.

0:35:41.400 --> 0:35:45.520
<v Speaker 1>When Westbrook shoots over forty forty two forty five percent,

0:35:46.360 --> 0:35:50.600
<v Speaker 1>that's they win. That he's a dangerous player when he's

0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:53.600
<v Speaker 1>able to shoot well. Now, he's not a good shooter,

0:35:53.840 --> 0:35:57.800
<v Speaker 1>he's a scorer. Harden shoots so much. He's a scorer

0:35:57.840 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 1>as well, and he's should be a better shooter than

0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:04.279
<v Speaker 1>what he is. But the last two NBA postseasons that

0:36:04.480 --> 0:36:09.760
<v Speaker 1>played under unique circumstances were lockout shortened seasons nineteen ninety

0:36:09.840 --> 0:36:13.439
<v Speaker 1>nine and Michael Jordan in nineteen ninety five when Jordan

0:36:13.600 --> 0:36:17.360
<v Speaker 1>wasn't there. Those two factors made those two seasons feel

0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:20.600
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more up for grabs, according to CBS

0:36:20.640 --> 0:36:23.680
<v Speaker 1>Sports dot Com nineteen ninety nine, but Nicks were an

0:36:23.760 --> 0:36:26.200
<v Speaker 1>eight seed, they made it to the finals. That's the

0:36:26.239 --> 0:36:28.200
<v Speaker 1>only time that ever happened. They lost to the Spurs.

0:36:28.440 --> 0:36:30.719
<v Speaker 1>Nineteen ninety five. The Rockets won the title as a

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:35.080
<v Speaker 1>number six seed, the only time that that's ever happened.

0:36:36.560 --> 0:36:39.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Rockets to me are always interesting, but

0:36:40.000 --> 0:36:43.279
<v Speaker 1>they could be really good and really bad. And that

0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:48.439
<v Speaker 1>could be in the same game, same series, same playoffs. Yeah. Point,

0:36:49.120 --> 0:36:50.880
<v Speaker 1>you said a couple of weeks ago that if they

0:36:50.920 --> 0:36:53.280
<v Speaker 1>had shortened series, it would be good for the Rockets

0:36:53.280 --> 0:36:55.360
<v Speaker 1>because again they're a shooting team. If they get a

0:36:55.440 --> 0:36:58.520
<v Speaker 1>couple hot games, that could take away everything. Yep. And

0:36:58.719 --> 0:37:00.520
<v Speaker 1>that's what I don't know. I love you know, it's

0:37:00.560 --> 0:37:04.160
<v Speaker 1>small ball. Remember when the Warriors had their death lineup

0:37:04.600 --> 0:37:07.880
<v Speaker 1>or lineup is that what it was called? Mclem death lineup?

0:37:08.600 --> 0:37:10.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, and the Rockets are going to have a

0:37:10.160 --> 0:37:14.880
<v Speaker 1>starting lineup maybe the tallest players what six six, that's it.

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:18.440
<v Speaker 1>This is one of those you better adjust to us.

0:37:18.880 --> 0:37:20.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're gonna to adjust to you a little bit,

0:37:20.880 --> 0:37:23.279
<v Speaker 1>but you have to adjust to us. Yeah, McLeman. I

0:37:23.320 --> 0:37:25.680
<v Speaker 1>think it is underrated how close the Rockets came to

0:37:25.760 --> 0:37:28.040
<v Speaker 1>winning it all. I mean, they had the Warriors on us,

0:37:28.080 --> 0:37:31.320
<v Speaker 1>they did. I think they have the championship kind of DNA,

0:37:31.440 --> 0:37:34.640
<v Speaker 1>but they haven't. This ran into the Warriors. Well, Oklahoma

0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:37.359
<v Speaker 1>City had Golden State on the ropes as well. That's

0:37:37.400 --> 0:37:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the same thing. Yeah, but you know, you've got to

0:37:39.560 --> 0:37:42.920
<v Speaker 1>be a great teams close you out. But the Rockets,

0:37:42.960 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>to me are interesting. I'm always fascinated in watching them.

0:37:47.160 --> 0:37:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I just don't know if they can be consistent enough

0:37:51.360 --> 0:37:55.319
<v Speaker 1>to win. Yes, McLeman, So I've been thinking Mannix picked

0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:57.600
<v Speaker 1>the Sixers in the East. Yeah, and a lot of

0:37:57.680 --> 0:37:59.919
<v Speaker 1>my Philly friends have been like they got they can't

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:02.719
<v Speaker 1>play away from their home stadium. So this is gonna

0:38:02.719 --> 0:38:06.439
<v Speaker 1>be a problem. I never understood that. Yeah, I don't either.

0:38:06.600 --> 0:38:09.640
<v Speaker 1>If you're a pro, you should be able to play

0:38:09.719 --> 0:38:14.040
<v Speaker 1>wherever you go. I mean the basket, the court, the

0:38:14.120 --> 0:38:17.280
<v Speaker 1>dimensions are all the same. But what the great Celtics

0:38:17.320 --> 0:38:20.279
<v Speaker 1>and Lakers teams have dominant at home as well. Yeah,

0:38:20.440 --> 0:38:23.000
<v Speaker 1>but they could travel. The Sixers can't shoot. That's why

0:38:23.040 --> 0:38:25.520
<v Speaker 1>they can't travel. They can't hit a shot. And I

0:38:25.600 --> 0:38:28.200
<v Speaker 1>know that Mannox, who covers the NBA for Sports Illustrated,

0:38:28.360 --> 0:38:32.279
<v Speaker 1>he likes the Sixers because they're a defensive minded team. Well,

0:38:32.320 --> 0:38:35.439
<v Speaker 1>you still have to be able to score, and that's

0:38:35.480 --> 0:38:38.319
<v Speaker 1>still a concern that I have. Are they consistent enough

0:38:38.719 --> 0:38:41.240
<v Speaker 1>to be able to put up enough points? Everybody's putting

0:38:41.280 --> 0:38:44.680
<v Speaker 1>up at least one hundred points? Now, this isn't you

0:38:44.760 --> 0:38:48.440
<v Speaker 1>know the Greco Roman wrestling basketball where you know in

0:38:48.560 --> 0:38:50.759
<v Speaker 1>the nineties with the Knicks, where you know, you get

0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:53.040
<v Speaker 1>to eighty and you first team to eighty would win.

0:38:53.440 --> 0:38:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's putting up a hundred, one hundred and five. Now

0:38:57.760 --> 0:39:00.279
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs, will those numbers come down? Yeah, there'll

0:39:00.280 --> 0:39:03.239
<v Speaker 1>be more of a half court offense and defense. But

0:39:04.080 --> 0:39:06.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you could look at the Sixers the way

0:39:06.200 --> 0:39:09.120
<v Speaker 1>you do the Rockets. They're kind of unique in their style.

0:39:09.880 --> 0:39:14.280
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know, I just have my doubts about

0:39:14.320 --> 0:39:17.600
<v Speaker 1>the chemistry of that team. It just feels like it's

0:39:18.360 --> 0:39:21.600
<v Speaker 1>it's not as smooth as you would want with the

0:39:21.880 --> 0:39:24.759
<v Speaker 1>two star players there. Yeah, point, here's some saucy three

0:39:24.800 --> 0:39:27.879
<v Speaker 1>point stats. The Sixers are the fourteenth best three point

0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:30.839
<v Speaker 1>shooting team in the NBA. They shoot thirty six point

0:39:30.880 --> 0:39:34.719
<v Speaker 1>two percent. The Houston Rockets are the twenty third best

0:39:34.840 --> 0:39:37.520
<v Speaker 1>shooting team in the NBA. They shoot only thirty four

0:39:37.560 --> 0:39:39.800
<v Speaker 1>and a half percent. Now they lead in volume. You know,

0:39:39.920 --> 0:39:42.759
<v Speaker 1>the worst percentage three point shooting team in the NBA

0:39:43.000 --> 0:39:50.719
<v Speaker 1>is take a guess, there's irony around it. I would

0:39:50.760 --> 0:39:53.520
<v Speaker 1>have thought it was the Rockets. The worst percentage is

0:39:53.560 --> 0:39:55.680
<v Speaker 1>the Golden State Warriors. They are the worst three point

0:39:55.719 --> 0:39:58.120
<v Speaker 1>shooting team, tied with Atlanta and the best is the

0:39:58.200 --> 0:40:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Miami Heat. Yeah, but that's the this year. This year,

0:40:01.000 --> 0:40:03.319
<v Speaker 1>and Golden State doesn't have Klay Thompson and they didn't

0:40:03.360 --> 0:40:06.080
<v Speaker 1>have Steph Kurt. How fascinating how different it went. Yeah,

0:40:06.120 --> 0:40:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm club. I was gonna say Dallas because early on

0:40:09.000 --> 0:40:10.719
<v Speaker 1>in the season, did Luca don Check throw up like

0:40:10.800 --> 0:40:15.200
<v Speaker 1>twenty three pointers a game? It's a volume, right, yes, Yeah,

0:40:15.360 --> 0:40:17.759
<v Speaker 1>Dallas is the eighth best three point shooting team in

0:40:18.120 --> 0:40:21.040
<v Speaker 1>this league. I mean Houston's if they're the highest volume,

0:40:21.080 --> 0:40:22.600
<v Speaker 1>that gives them a chance in this too. You guys

0:40:22.719 --> 0:40:25.040
<v Speaker 1>bomb threes? Oh well, I mean they do it, but

0:40:25.120 --> 0:40:27.319
<v Speaker 1>I gotta you have to make them. It's one thing

0:40:27.400 --> 0:40:31.840
<v Speaker 1>that you take them. If you're taking forty four a game,

0:40:32.880 --> 0:40:38.440
<v Speaker 1>you gotta help me out and make maybe eighteen fifteen

0:40:39.239 --> 0:40:42.919
<v Speaker 1>that would be nice. Uh, Jesse and Los Angeles, Hey Jesse,

0:40:43.040 --> 0:40:47.840
<v Speaker 1>what do you have for me today? Hey? Funny, you

0:40:47.880 --> 0:40:49.880
<v Speaker 1>guys just mentioned that. But I was actually at that

0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:52.560
<v Speaker 1>game seven when they missed twenty three straight threes, and

0:40:52.719 --> 0:40:56.439
<v Speaker 1>that was the worst foe I got. I got really

0:40:56.560 --> 0:40:58.600
<v Speaker 1>banged up the second half when it started to collapse

0:41:00.160 --> 0:41:02.600
<v Speaker 1>on the NBA, though, I'm still a bit confused because

0:41:02.800 --> 0:41:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Sports Illustrated Instagram post came out and there's a play

0:41:05.480 --> 0:41:07.479
<v Speaker 1>tournament for two days, and I thought it was eight games.

0:41:07.520 --> 0:41:10.439
<v Speaker 1>And that leads me to my question. The whole point

0:41:10.480 --> 0:41:12.120
<v Speaker 1>of this is, so I was up in my hometown

0:41:12.120 --> 0:41:14.359
<v Speaker 1>of Sacramento, California this past weekend and it was eating

0:41:14.360 --> 0:41:16.360
<v Speaker 1>at a barbecue play with some of my county friends,

0:41:16.400 --> 0:41:19.000
<v Speaker 1>and of course Kings basketball comes up, and I'm wondering,

0:41:19.400 --> 0:41:21.200
<v Speaker 1>is it time for us to dust off the cowbell? Like,

0:41:21.239 --> 0:41:24.800
<v Speaker 1>are the Kings back in the playoffs or not. I

0:41:24.880 --> 0:41:26.839
<v Speaker 1>don't think they're back in the playoffs. I think they're

0:41:26.880 --> 0:41:30.240
<v Speaker 1>playing to get back into the playoffs. And yeah, more cowbell.

0:41:30.280 --> 0:41:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Forget he's rolling. Can't go wrong with that. More Cowbell. Also,

0:41:34.480 --> 0:41:36.800
<v Speaker 1>PAULI came up with a plan for the teams that

0:41:36.960 --> 0:41:41.200
<v Speaker 1>didn't make it into the pool to play in to

0:41:41.320 --> 0:41:45.800
<v Speaker 1>get into the playoffs. And he came up with the

0:41:45.920 --> 0:41:48.360
<v Speaker 1>title of the league. A tournament. It's called the You

0:41:48.520 --> 0:41:52.799
<v Speaker 1>Suck Invitational. We'll talk about that, and the winner gets

0:41:52.840 --> 0:41:55.360
<v Speaker 1>the number one overall pick one more item in the

0:41:55.440 --> 0:41:58.399
