Speaker 1: Dad's go out there and celebrate it to the best

14
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: of your ability before coming to the realization that, yes,

00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: the Honeydew list is still there. Yes, those kids still

16
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 1: need their lunch is made, or you know, the barbecue

17
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 1: needs to get fired up at some point.

18
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 3: You know, a father's work truly is never done.

19
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: But it's a it's a special day, especially since it's

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: aired with the US Open every year. It's I don't

21
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: know about you, but I love the fact that from

22
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: the moment I opened my eyes on the West Coast,

23
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: I can watch.

24
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 3: Golf typically on a Father's Day.

25
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: Usually US Opens are on the East coast, and so

26
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: you know, you turn on television and there it is

27
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: right in front of your face.

28
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: It is, and you know when we're talking about Pinehurst

29
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: and Father's Day, and we're going to obviously be covering here.

30
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 2: The leaders will be teeing off here in about twenty minutes,

31
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 2: the final pairing Bryce and De'shambo and Matthew Pool. I'm

32
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 2: really good with my friends, as you know, Matthew poffa

33
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: right in front of them. Of course, that duo of

34
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,559
Speaker 2: Rory McElroy and Patrick Cantley. We think back to nineteen

35
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 2: ninety nine at Pinehurst and this was surreal. I was

36
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: talking to Monci yesterday about this story when Payne Stewart

37
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 2: of course won that US Open that year and of

38
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 2: course tragically was killed later that year in that freakish

39
00:01:55,320 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 2: airplane accident. And you remember that he comes to the

40
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 2: final hole eighteen playing with Phil Mickelson. He has a

41
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 2: one shot lead with one hole to play, and of

42
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: course if they tie, there's an eighteen hole playoff the

43
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 2: next day. That's when they still had the eighteen whole

44
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: playoff and Phil Mickelson and his wife are expecting their

45
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 2: first child like any second.

46
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 4: And he had said that.

47
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 2: Whole week at Pinehurst that you know, if his wife

48
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: goes into labor, I'm out of here.

49
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 4: I'm out of here. So Payne Stewart hits the putt

50
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 4: that wins the US Open.

51
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 2: Of course, he clasped the face of Phil Mickelson and

52
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 2: talked about, you know, you're going to be a dad,

53
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 2: You're going to be a dad.

54
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 4: Their baby was born the next day.

55
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: Wow.

56
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 4: And think about it.

57
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: Had it gone to an eighteen whole playoff and at

58
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: that point, Phil mcholson had not won a major, he

59
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: was still five years away from winning his first major.

60
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: Do you think he would have literally have walked off

61
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: and skipped and forfeit an eighteen hole playoff to win

62
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 2: the US Open, which, by the way, he has never won.

63
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 2: He's been a runner up six times, He's won all

64
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 2: the other majors, never won the US Open. Do you

65
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: think he really would have walked away from an eighteen

66
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: whole playoff to be there for the birth of his

67
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: first child.

68
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 3: You know, it's so crazy.

69
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: I personally don't think so, but I've talked to many

70
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: people who say and swear that they would Scotti. Scheffler

71
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: swore up and down that if his wife went into labor,

72
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: regardless of his standing in the Masters, regardless of where

73
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: he was at in the match, if it came down

74
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: to him missing the birth of his first child or

75
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: being there at the Masters, he chose. He chose he

76
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: wanted to be there for the birth of his first child. Well,

77
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: good for him. That is certainly his own prerogative. And

78
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: maybe since he had already won one prior to that,

79
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: maybe he was a less special or major winner in general.

80
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: Maybe it's less special the second time around.

81
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 3: But I don't know, man.

82
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: Like I talked to my wife about this, because the

83
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,320
Speaker 1: conversation came up. I said, like, what happens. What happens

84
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: if you're due in February, and it's like, it's it's

85
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: like either play in the super Bowl or I'm there

86
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,239
Speaker 1: to watch our first our first son be born, because

87
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: we knew at that point we're having a boy. And

88
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: she goes, I would be mad at you if you

89
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: were in the room with me. She's like, I don't

90
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: understand how that's even a question. She was like, I

91
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: would be mad at you. I would be so mad

92
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: at you that you were in the hospital instead of

93
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: out on the field with your teammates. So look, Annie,

94
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: my wife, she was a former Division one volleyball player,

95
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: So I don't know, maybe she's she just views it

96
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: feels differently about it. And this isn't This isn't you know,

97
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: tarnishing anybody else's reputation. I listen, everybody has.

98
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: Their own progative.

99
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 1: But if it were Phil Mickelson winning his first ever

100
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: major or being there for the birth of first kid,

101
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 1: trust me when I tell you, the kid would find

102
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 1: a way to forgive him. Like that's that's the reality

103
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: of the situation.

104
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: Well for me today I was there. Of course, I

105
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 2: cut the cord on all three of my children, yep,

106
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: and I was. I was actually impressed. You remember last

107
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: week I sort of made the analogy that Father's Day

108
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 2: is like the middle child of holidays. You know, it

109
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 2: doesn't get all that much recognition sometimes, but I was.

110
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 4: I was pleased.

111
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,599
Speaker 2: All three of my kids were there today, my adult children,

112
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 2: they all got me very thoughtful cards, you know, I

113
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: and then the minimum maybe a little Starbucks hike. I

114
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: actually got a new shirt that I'm wearing today that

115
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:43,679
Speaker 2: looks really nice.

116
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean I thought it was a good

117
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 4: Father's Day.

118
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 2: Now, your boys, I am sure showered you with gifts,

119
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 2: that's right this morning?

120
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I got a breakfast served to be in

121
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: bed nice and that was followed by a lot of hugs.

122
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: And then I got a gift bag filled with all

123
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: sorts of stuff. I got a sweat with the picture

124
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: of us sewn onto it.

125
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get a world greatest Dad's shirts that you

126
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 2: would never wear, like, never wear that.

127
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: Hey, pops, you're the coolest. And it was a card

128
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: shape like a popsicle.

129
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 5: Heah, exactly Two quick things though, least one one you

130
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 5: would you say, Father's day's the middle step child, but

131
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 5: without the complaining about Father's Day not being as recognized.

132
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 5: What would Father's Day be without that? And so would

133
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 5: you really want us to set up huge brunches? Nobody?

134
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 2: No, no, no, Dad's actually want you know again, my

135
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,679
Speaker 2: situation now is perfect, Like, give me a card, write

136
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 2: something nice, you know, something for the effort. That's all

137
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: I'm looking for, and I got that today. So I'm

138
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 2: the happiest dad on the planet. So certainly a happy

139
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 2: Father's Day to all the dad's granddad's great granddad's out

140
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: there listening.

141
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: Uh.

142
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 2: And I know for a lot of the men listening

143
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 2: out there, and maybe some of the ladies as well,

144
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 2: sports is the hand me down amongst fathers and sons.

145
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 2: I mean, there's no question. When I was a kid

146
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 2: growing up by back in the day, my dad had

147
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 2: the radio on all the time. My dad was one

148
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 2: of those work around the house guys like you are rich,

149
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 2: you know. He was constantly outside working on the house.

150
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 2: And I was the lazy kid, like I'm sitting there

151
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 2: in the valley it's one hundred and fifty degrees outside, Dad,

152
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch TV. And he had no patience for

153
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 2: me anyway. So, but he would be listening to LA sports,

154
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 2: whether it was the Dodgers, Angels, Rams, Lakers, whoever, on

155
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: the radio. And so to sort of make this connection

156
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 2: with my dad, I started listening to the games on

157
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: the radio, and this, you know, obviously sparked an interest

158
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 2: that has carried me to this day.

159
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: But I know, for and.

160
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,679
Speaker 4: We've done this spot, it's not gonna do it today.

161
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: But I mean a lot of people out there, a

162
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,200
Speaker 2: lot of guys and some of the girls as well,

163
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 2: they get this love of sports handed down from their dad, yep,

164
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 2: and it becomes that connecting rod that you need to

165
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 2: sort of start a relationship, something that we have in common,

166
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 2: that we will listen together. And of course, my dad being

167
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 2: a USC guy, you know, that was his number one

168
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 2: USC football was his number one thing. Obviously it was

169
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 2: a Dodgers fan, a Lakers fan, but you know, USC

170
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 2: football was his lifeblood.

171
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 4: That's how we got that connection going.

172
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: It's a way. Okay, so you ever, you ever go

173
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: to a new classroom and your teacher for the first

174
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: week of school does those icebreaker exercises where you know,

175
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: it's like get to know you stuff, and it's always

176
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: so awkward and nobody really likes to do those things.

177
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 1: But at the end of the first week, you actually

178
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 1: you do know more about some of the people you're

179
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: in your class with better than you did before. The

180
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 1: way you just described sports and what it stands for

181
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,680
Speaker 1: in terms of either fatherhood or motherhood is it's a

182
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: connection point. And it's not just a connection point for

183
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: your dad with you specifically. It could also be like

184
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: your dad with your friend group. You know, you turn

185
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: into a teenager and all of a sudden, you want

186
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: anything to do with your parents. But then you know,

187
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: you realize your buddy Mikey likes to talk I don't know,

188
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts with your dad, or you know, your buddy

189
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: Frankie comes over and he happens to be an Oakland

190
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 1: A's fan, and so is your pops, and you realize, wow,

191
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: he has a pretty deep cerebral understanding of their lineup

192
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: in rotation, you know, like and it just it. And then,

193
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: by the way interspersed throughout that conversation, whether these teenage

194
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 1: children know it or not, all of a sudden, the

195
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 1: dad starts asking questions like, ah, so, anyways, what are

196
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: the plants tonight?

197
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 6: Oh?

198
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you guys are hanging out with them? How

199
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 1: well be careful, you know you remember laughting? Okay, okay.

200
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: You know it's like it's almost like it's subversive in

201
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: a way, like sports gets the conversation rolling and then

202
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: this way you could get to the information you're looking for.

203
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 3: And I remember my dad doing that with me.

204
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: I remember my dad doing that with my friends, and

205
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna do it with my boys. Like

206
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 1: it's just it's such a great meeting point. It's such

207
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: a great juncture point for us all and it's always there.

208
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: Like if there's one thing that the pandemic, you know,

209
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,439
Speaker 1: robbed from us besides our health, in some cases lives

210
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: and we lost a lot of people, it was sports.

211
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 1: It was the fact that somewhere in the background is

212
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 1: this noise that at any chosen moment, you can turn

213
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: the noise up a little bit, and even though it's

214
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: not important whether or not the Knicks one, or whether

215
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: or not the Celtics, you know, swept the you know,

216
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. It's just there and you can turn

217
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: up that volume a little bit to get away from

218
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: whatever it is that's bugging you or whatever it is

219
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: you're avoiding talking about until you're comfortable talking about it.

220
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 3: I love it for that reason.

221
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's been amazing. I was in my cards today.

222
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 2: My oldest son is the big movie buff, and of

223
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 2: course that has been something of interest to me because

224
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 2: my dad I worked in the movie industry. So in

225
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 2: his card today he just talked about the fact that

226
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 2: I just love watching old movies with you, Dad, It's

227
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 2: like our thing. And then of course my younger son,

228
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 2: Garrett's the big sports guy, and he talked about our

229
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 2: connection with sports, and then I have a daughter, and

230
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 2: the thing about being a father to a daughter, You

231
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 2: guys know this. I mean, you're really setting the bar

232
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 2: for the men in their future, right, I mean, there's

233
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 2: an insane responsibility. And I fortunately have a very great

234
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 2: relationship with my daughter. So again, everyone have a great

235
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,599
Speaker 2: Father's Day. We got lots to talk about over the

236
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 2: next few hours. Coming up on the other side, we're

237

Speaker 4: All right, so we're getting ready for the.

285
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,959
Speaker 2: Team off of the leaders here at the US Oh

286
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 2: but I don't know how much you've watched some interesting

287
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 2: storylines as we go to this final round here Bryson

288
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,960
Speaker 2: to Shambo has played lights out and it's been interesting,

289
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 2: Rich because we've been talking about, you know, live golf

290
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 2: versus the PGA Tour, and some of the live golfers

291
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: have really faded away.

292
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:03,959
Speaker 4: You know, from these majors.

293
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 2: I mean, think John Rahm, even before his injury at

294
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 2: the US Open. Where's Dustin Johnson been at these majors?

295
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 2: And bryceon De'shambos the opposite. Like, this guy is really

296
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: playing the best golf of his life right now. I

297
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: think he was six at the Matters. Obviously, he was

298
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: runner up at the PGA last month, and he goes

299
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 2: into the final round with the three shot lead at

300
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 2: the US Open. So whatever he's doing on the live

301
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 2: tour besides collecting money, is working for his golf game

302
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 2: right now?

303
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, look, I whether you're a live golfer, you're

304
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: a PGA golfer. I think if you are concentrating on

305
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: the craft and you are practicing, and you're you're keeping

306
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: the promise to yourself and those who support you or

307
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: endorse you that you're going to take care of your

308
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: body and you're going to play a ton of golf

309
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: and stay at the top of your game. I don't

310
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: really think it matters what league you play in, because

311
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: there's always going to be a certain number of golfers

312
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: who are capable of handling the stress of a weekend

313
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: when they're leading a tournament.

314
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 3: How many times you see.

315
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: A guy flirting with the top ten or the top five,

316
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 1: and then once Saturday hits, he falls to pieces. You know,

317
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,359
Speaker 1: once Sunday hits, there's no way after all of the interviews,

318
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: all of the postmatch conversations that he's had with friends

319
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: or family, you know, the text messages, the phone blowing up,

320
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 1: all that stuff, how many of them fall apart. And

321
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: because it's hard. Golf is a hard sport to begin with.

322
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: But then when you add the aspect of all the

323
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: attention you received liked Chambeau or you know, a Woods

324
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: or a Mickelson or Rory or Spieth or you know,

325
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: I mean Brooks kept can name all of the top

326
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: golfers who have won. Well, those are the guys who

327
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: can handle that pressure. And there's only about, maybe right now,

328
00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: twenty guys maybe twenty guys on the tour who can

329
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: consistently handle that pressure exactly.

330
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 2: But you do have breakout wins, as we had with

331
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 2: Wyndham Clark at the LA Country Club a year ago

332
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 2: to win the US Open. This is the one major

333
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: where you probably have had more out of left field

334
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 2: champions than any other major.

335
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:17,560
Speaker 4: So we'll see how it plays out.

336
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 2: Deshambo just teed off, so he and Babo, the final pairing,

337
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 2: are off and running.

338
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 4: So well, we'll keep you updated there. All right.

339
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 2: So we are still sitting here talking about the NBA Finals,

340
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 2: and I want to go back to this game for

341
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 2: Holy Macro. I mean, we had the Boston Celtics. Think

342
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 2: about this. The Boston Celtics won into Game four of

343
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals having won ten consecutive playoff games this year.

344
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 2: That had never happened in Celtics historyiks, so think about that.

345
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 2: Seventeen NBA championships, not even during the Bill Russell or

346
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: Larry Bird era. Never before had the Celtics ever won

347
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 2: ten consecutive playoff games.

348
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 4: And you lose this game by thirty eight.

349
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: Now, a thirty eight point win in any game sort

350
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 2: of catches your eye, but in a playoff game, much

351
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,360
Speaker 2: less an NBA Finals game, the only way that happens

352
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 2: is you have one team that's desperate, which obviously the

353
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 2: Mavericks were. They had to win to stay alive, and

354
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 2: then you have to have the other team mail it in.

355
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 2: And that's exactly what the Celtics did in Game four.

356
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,719
Speaker 2: They literally mailed this game and with the mindset that,

357
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 2: all right, this is gonna be only our second championship

358
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 2: since nineteen eighty.

359
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 4: Six, two thousand and eight, that's it.

360
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 2: Since nineteen eighty six, they've only won one NBA championship,

361
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 2: So we're gonna do that at home. We want to

362
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 2: do it for the fans. But if you got that mindset,

363
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 2: and I guarantee you they did, because they absolutely mailed

364
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 2: in that Game four with the idea like, we want

365
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 2: to do this at home to me, you're playing with

366
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 2: fire because you talk about putting pressure.

367
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 4: There's no pressure on the Mavericks.

368
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 2: No team's ever come back from a three to zero

369
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 2: defensit in any playoff series in the history of the NBA.

370
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 2: So they're they're just playing with house money at this point.

371
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 2: No one expects on the win. But if any team

372
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 2: should know this, it's the Celtics. Thing about last year

373
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference Finals, Remember they were, they were down three

374
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 2: to all, they won three in a row. They get

375
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 2: to Game seven and home, We're gonna be the first team,

376
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: we're gonna make history.

377
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 4: And then they lay an egg at home Game seven.

378
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: So I'm telling you right now, I would I would

379
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,640
Speaker 2: think because you picked this series in five, right now

380
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 2: you are one hundred percent on the mark. But I

381
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 2: don't think Game five is going to be the gimme

382
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 2: that I think the Celtics mentally think it's gonna be.

383
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 3: Well, we were.

384
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: Talking about this yesterday on Fox Sports Radio. In my

385
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 1: thought process, my commentary was, look, and I've said this

386
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: about the Celtics the whole way. It kind of looks

387
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: like they've gotten a little bored at times with their opponents.

388
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: And I've compared it a lot to watching watching somebody

389
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: play with their food, you know, or you know, a predator. Yeah, look,

390
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: I mean there's no question a cat versus a rat

391
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 1: or a mouse, the cat's gonna win. But if the

392
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: cat gets complacent or starts goofing around, or gets lazy,

393
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: or you know, lets the mouse or the rat get

394
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 1: a little bit too close to its paw or its whiskers,

395
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you could get nit that, you know,

396
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: you could walk away from what should have been an absolute,

397
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 1: you know, lopsided affair with with a limp, you know,

398
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: because you know, when you back a scared animal into

399
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 1: a corner, it's going to bite, it's gonna try to

400
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: defend itself.

401
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 3: And that's what it felt like happened.

402
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 1: In Game four in Dallas.

403
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 3: Dallas was being embarrassed.

404
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: Not only were they being embarrassed by the Celtics for

405
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: just the way the Celtics were dominating them through the

406
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 1: first three games, but also in front of their home crowd,

407
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 1: and then also the media started jumping in on the party.

408
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:56,400
Speaker 1: When you start having reporters who, yeah, look, and there's

409
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: a lot of people from a lot of different walks

410
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: of life who you know, comment who can look, anybody

411
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 1: can have their opinion on basketball or sports in general.

412
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: But when you have guys talking about Luka Doncic as

413
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 1: viciously as some of the and I'm not gonna use

414
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: the word slander, because I think it's fair to talk

415
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: about how how poorly a star is playing. I think

416
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 1: Luca heard it all. I honestly do. I think he

417
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: was listening. I think I think he heard some of

418
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: the commentary and said, man, they forgot how good I am,

419
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: and so I'm going to show him. And maybe that's

420
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: exactly what Dallas needs. They need a little bit of

421
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 1: a wake up call, and three to zero should be

422
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: more than enough of a wake up call, but maybe

423
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: it took a little bit extra.

424
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 3: And so I agree with you.

425
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: I think it is conceivable that Dallas can start winning

426
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 1: some games here, and they better if they want to

427
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: extend this series. But I think the most likely scenario

428
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: is this series returns to Boston and tomorrow the Celtics

429
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: put him on and we're talking about this next weekend saying, yeah,

430
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: you know, the Mavericks were just overmatched.

431
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 3: Now I hope they don't.

432
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 1: I honestly do, because look, I said this also at

433
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: the start of this, Steven, you could attest to this,

434
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 1: I'm hoping for an interesting series. So far, it hasn't

435
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: delivered a lot of drama. I'm hoping that this becomes

436
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: more dramatic and interesting.

437
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 3: I just fear that it won't.

438
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:31,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, And when we think about it, the

439
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 2: Luca meltdown in Game three was just unforgivable. I mean,

440
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 2: your team has made this miraculous comeback from twenty one

441
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 2: points down to three, they're still over four minutes to

442
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 2: go in the game, and he gets two fouls that

443
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 2: were unnecessary. Yep, I mean he could spin it like

444
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 2: you know there was in both instances, you extended your leg.

445
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 4: That's a block. I was very happy.

446
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: I thought the officials might reverse that last call, because again,

447
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,199
Speaker 2: you don't really want an NBA Finals game with the

448
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 2: start of the team fouls out.

449
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 4: But they made the right call. It was a block.

450
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 2: You extended your leg. And then for him to complain

451
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 2: about it and everything else, I'm like, dude, you're just

452
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 2: being stupid. Why would you even put yourself in that position.

453
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 2: Your team has just made this insane comeback to get

454
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 2: it to a two to one series.

455
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 1: Wait, right now, we.

456
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 2: Could be two to two if he doesn't go brain dead.

457
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 2: I just I could not believe what he did in

458
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 2: Game three. I just couldn't believe it. You can't be

459
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 2: a great player and have a complete mental breakdown as

460
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:41,400
Speaker 2: he did with those two stupid fouls that were completely unnecessary.

461
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: Well, it's just like golf, Steve. You know, we were

462
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,960
Speaker 1: talking about how there may be twenty twenty golfers on

463
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: the planet right now. When it comes down to the

464
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: Saturday and the Sunday round of a tournament that they're leading,

465
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 1: or they're in the conversation taking the tournament, who can sustain?

466
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 3: Who can who can keep.

467
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 1: The mental acuity sharp and keep the skills from fading

468
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 1: and keep the tiredness and the soreness of a long

469
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: weekend walking a course locked in Like that's the same

470
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: in basketball, that's the same in the NFL playoffs. Now,

471
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 1: I understand different levels of physical strain and different levels

472
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: of a mental strain, but the thought process of being

473
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: able to keep your composure under fire, it is probably

474
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: the most admired skill anybody can possess. Who who is looking?

475
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: Who are you looking.

476
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 3: Toward when there's an emergency?

477
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: The guy who's losing his mind and running in circles

478
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: and and you know, flipping out and making mistakes. Or

479
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 1: the guy who's calm, cool and composed has all the answers,

480
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 1: is the same person when he's under fire or she's

481
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: under fire as when when you know the situation is

482
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: absolutely normal, that's the.

483
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,199
Speaker 3: Person you're looking for.

484
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 1: Composure, low heart, Yes, you know.

485
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 3: These are the Navy Seals.

486
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 1: These are the special operators who guard our borders and

487
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 1: fight for us overseas that we send it to the

488
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,119
Speaker 1: worst of situations because they can keep their composure.

489
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 3: Those are the people who are finishers.

490
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: Jordan Kobe, Lebron, Dwayne Wade like these are the people

491
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: who have been cool under fire and they find a

492
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 1: way to championships, multiple championships as a result of that composure.

493
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 2: Well, he has an opportunity to redeem himself. I'm not

494

495
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 2: Dallas played better, but that was a mailing job. But

496
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 2: if he can come back and figure out a way

497
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 2: to lead his MAVs to a victory Game five in Boston,

498
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:42,600

593
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 2: We need him right now, Bo, because this was another

594
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 2: big story this week associated to the end. And this

595
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 2: is the Woj versus Sham's rivalry, or the Shams versus Woj' rivalry,

596
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 2: which by the way, has its own Wikipedia.

597
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: Page schedule for pay per view.

598
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 2: Tell you about that, right, Shams versus Woj? Now Shams Now?

599
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 2: I think Bo? Can you set us stray here on

600
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 2: this Adrian war Zanowski we know of him forever? Right? Yeah,

601
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: this Shams guy, where did he come from? He's with

602
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 2: the athletic But how did this guy get to where

603
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 2: he is?

604
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 13: If I remember correctly, Sham's was kind of like Woj's

605
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 13: understudy at Yahoo and they brought him. He brought him along,

606
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 13: and then Woj went to ESPN and Sham's I believe

607
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 13: state at Yahoo and then kind of has become like

608
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 13: the athletics insider. He's a I think he works with

609
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 13: stadium but Sham's kind of does his own thing, so

610
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 13: it's a little bit of like a Star Wars type

611
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 13: stuff too. It's Master and Apprentice. It's really interesting.

612
00:29:55,840 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 2: Well, it's been unbelievable because we have this story. They

613
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 2: came out of nowhere rich about Dan Hurley. In fact,

614
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,959
Speaker 2: last Sunday we were sitting here and Dan Hurley had

615
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 2: had his meeting with the Lakers and they said, you know,

616
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 2: tomorrow be the day where he makes his decision, and

617
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 2: then all these There were two things that came out

618
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 2: of this story that came directly from Woge that turned

619
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 2: out to be false, which is not good when you

620
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 2: are recognized as the guy when it comes to inside

621
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 2: information with the NBA. The two things that came out

622
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 2: of this story, because what we were being reported by Woge,

623
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 2: who's very close to Dan Hurley, is that the Lakers

624
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 2: are going to make a record offer more money than

625
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 2: it had ever been offered to any coach ever in

626
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 2: the history of the NBA to lure him away from

627
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 2: you caught. That turned out to be not even close.

628
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 2: The second thing that came out was the fact that

629
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 2: Dan Hurley was their number one guy from the get go,

630
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 2: which by the way is completely opposite of what Shabs

631
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 2: had said, where he said that it's been JJ Reddick

632
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 2: has been their number one guy from the get go,

633
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 2: and the holding up on Reddick was for him to

634
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 2: complete his assignment as an announcer for the NBA Finals.

635
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 13: And I think the important thing to note there, too,

636
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 13: is that everybody in Los Angeles also said it was

637
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 13: JJ Reddick the entire time.

638
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 4: We've all been saying.

639
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 13: We had Mark Medina on with Dan Byer a couple

640
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 13: weeks ago and I asked him like, Hey, when is

641
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:27,880
Speaker 13: JJ REDI gonna get hired? And he's like, you know,

642
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 13: pretty much at the conclusion of the final. So everybody

643
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 13: just has thought it's JJ Reddick all along.

644
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looked. What's so funny is there were a

645
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: lot of people in BO You know that, because we've

646
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 1: had conversations with some of them who viewed JJ Redick

647
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: as a smoke screen.

648
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 3: And I never looked at it that way.

649
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: I thought JJ Reddick was a serious consideration because of

650
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: Lebron James, and Lebron James runs the Lakers, thank you,

651
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: Clutch Sports runs the Lakers, and oh, by the way,

652
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: if they're going to even look at it, Dan Hurley's

653
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: not because Lebron all of a sudden had a change

654
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: of heart. It's because maybe JJ Reddick felt like they

655
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: didn't offer him enough, or maybe the Lakers felt like, boy,

656
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: JJ Redick is asking for a lot of money, Maybe

657
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 1: we should throw another consideration out there to cool this

658
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: off a bit and make sure he knows that he's

659
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: not the only one being considered. And maybe to a

660
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: greater or lesser extent, that backfired. But in no way,

661
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: shape or form did I think that JJ Reddick his

662
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: name getting tossed around as much as it did was

663
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,480
Speaker 1: an accident, a mistake, because I think I always think this.

664
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 1: Why am I learning this? Does JJ Reddick really want

665
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: people to think he may be the next Lakers head

666
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 1: coach if he's a successful broadcaster, analyst, podcaster? No, probably not.

667
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 1: Probably not. My guess is since he does the podcast

668
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: with Lebron, and since they've had many conversations over the

669
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: years about basketball, Lebron appreciates his intellect and his basketball

670
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: IQ saw value in maybe having the Lakers hire him

671
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: as a head coach, and all of a sudden, the

672
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: goalposts may have changed positions because JJ Reddick realized through

673
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: his people like, Hey, you know, listen, I know you're

674
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: ensnared right now in the Lebron world and you think

675
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: that everything's gonna be gum drops and lemonade and life

676
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: is going to be easy being Lebron's coach. But could

677
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 1: we just run through the list of coaches that Lebron

678
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: has had and like, we can tell you from first

679
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: hand conversations what they've said about it. Look what you're

680
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: signing up for if you're a Lebron's head coach is

681
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: taking all the blame and taking zero praise. I mean,

682
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: if JJ Riddick's cool with that. Maybe it was going

683
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 1: to take more money than the Lakers were willing to

684
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: spend at the moment, or maybe they were trying to

685
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: push back on Lebron and say, hey, could we have

686
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 1: very least offer Dan Hurley and see if he would

687
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 1: entertain our offer, you know. And then oh, by the way,

688
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: they did Dan Hurley a huge favor because he's going

689
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: to get a huge contract extension with Connecticut here probably

690
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: going to be coming out soon. But I digress back.

691
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 3: To the Lakers.

692
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, JJ Reddick felt like a very real consideration until

693
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 1: all of a sudden it wasn't and so I don't

694
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 1: necessarily think Sham's got it wrong, and I don't necessarily

695
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,439
Speaker 1: think Woje got it wrong. But I do think that

696
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,919
Speaker 1: this rivalry has teeth, and I think these guys legitimately

697
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 1: like dislike each other through the course of this sourced

698
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: reporting that they did.

699
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:33,439
Speaker 4: Well look at it. Chalms is in the driver's seat here.

700
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 2: It looks bad for woj And by the way, the

701
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 2: Four Letter has done a major cover up on this one,

702
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 2: because when he made that breaking news, it was like

703
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 2: a faye to complete, like it was a done deal.

704
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 2: I mean, he had all the major voices on the

705
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 2: Four Letter talking about how it's going to look with

706
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 2: Dan Hurley as the new coach of the Lakers, you know,

707
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,480
Speaker 2: with Bronnie James. You know they're gonna draft and he'll develop.

708
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 2: It was like a done deal. And I remember we

709
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 2: were thinking, what done deal?

710
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 4: What happened here? He hasn't even met with a team.

711
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 2: Yet, and all of a sudden, like you just said, Hey,

712
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 2: Dan Hurley, parlay.

713
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 4: This into a sweet art deal. Yukon who's doing who

714
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 4: a favor?

715
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,720
Speaker 2: It's a bad look for woch I mean a really,

716
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 2: really bad because when Hurley officially turned down the job.

717
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 4: Boy the Four Letter quickly turned the page.

718
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 2: Well, and it's like, okay, because we look bad as

719
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 2: a network because we ran with this because our guy,

720
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 2: the number one inside in the league, says, if he

721
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 2: says it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen. When of you

722
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 2: had a story, when WOCH has a breaking story that

723
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 2: it doesn't happen, Well, this did not happen. In fact,

724
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 2: it just seemed like the Lakers went through the motions

725
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 2: of like, well, now that the story's out there, Yeah,

726
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 2: we'll bring in Dan Hurley.

727
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: They've lowballed him.

728
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 2: You know, it wasn't even a serious attempt to get

729
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 2: this guy there supposedly was the guy that they had

730
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,479
Speaker 2: targeted all along, the guy real quick.

731
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 1: Since you're the Lakers fan and you've been following this

732
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: team longer Wall so I mean Steve obviously, but I

733
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,879
Speaker 1: do you think who do you think is gonna be

734
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: or okay, all things being able.

735
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 4: To save it right there, we're gonna do this on

736
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 4: the other side.

737
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 6: Who would be the better choice for the Wait, okay,

738
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 6: we'll get We'll get Bulb, mister insider here because he

739
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,799
Speaker 6: lives and breathes this, he will give us the definitive

740
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 6: answer coming out.

741
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 4: This is Fox Sports Sunday.

742
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 2: Steve Harvin and Rich Armberger Here Fox Sports Sunday.

743
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 4: We are live from the tire rack dot Com studios.

744
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 2: Hope the dads out there are having a great Father's

745
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 2: day again. Roy McElroy has cut De Shambo's lead to two.

746
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 2: De Shambo parring the first two holes and McElroy has

747
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 2: a birdie. So we are keeping our eye on the

748
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 2: US Open, but we're also trying to get to the

749
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 2: end result of an endless weight. I mean, it seems

750
00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 2: like Darvin Ham was fired a year ago. It's been

751
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 2: so long since Ham was released as the Lakers head coach.

752
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 2: Still looking for a new head coach. Rich, you pose

753
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 2: the question right before the break. We'll post it again

754
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 2: to Bo Benson. Are esteemed by the way, Happy Father's

755
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:14,320
Speaker 2: Day to Bow as well.

756
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 4: He's a girl's daddy.

757
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: Yes, oh yeah, he's a girl.

758
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 4: Daddy, all right, So you're beloved Lakers. This is a

759
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:23,479
Speaker 4: critical move.

760
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:27,439
Speaker 2: They haven't had any coach since Phil Jackson left lasts

761
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 2: more than three years. They've had six coaches during that span,

762
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 2: so it's just been a revolving door of coaches. Is

763
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 2: that revolving door going to end? Are they going to

764
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: come up with the guy that will I don't know,

765
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 2: at least last more than three years leading them into

766
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 2: the future.

767
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 4: And if so, who is that person going to be?

768
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 13: It's going to be JJ Redick.

769
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:48,240
Speaker 1: My thing.

770
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 13: At this point in the search. If they wanted to

771
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 13: hire James Barrego, or if they wanted to hire David Adelman,

772
00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 13: I believe his name, Rick Adelman, his son. If they

773
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 13: wanted to hire anybody else, they would have, but they

774
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 13: haven't hired anybody. They brought JJ Redick in for a

775
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 13: formal interview yesterday. It's going to be Jj Reddick. I'm

776
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 13: ultimately fine with it. Like I don't think any of

777
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,840
Speaker 13: these candidates are, you know, blow away candidates, Like you

778
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 13: got to hire them because we all thought Darvin Ham

779
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 13: was a good candidate. We don't know, We truly just

780
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 13: don't know. And there is a track record of success

781
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:29,439
Speaker 13: for guys coming out of odd spots to be NBA

782
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 13: head coaches. Steve Kerr was a GM for the Suns.

783
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 13: Jason Kidd retired, went right into coaching and now is

784
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 13: in the NBA Finals. And you know, up until three

785
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 13: days ago, everybody was raving about him.

786
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 2: Som Riley was announcer, a sidekick with Chick Kern who

787
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 2: fell into an assistant job and then got elevated again.

788
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 13: We don't know at the end of the day, we

789
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 13: don't know what of these guys are going to be,

790
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 13: so sure, take a chance on JJ Redick. I mean,

791
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 13: James Barrego does not move me in the slightest I

792
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 13: would be very upset if that was what they ultimately

793
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 13: went with, seeing as he couldn't even win with the

794
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 13: Hornets in the East.

795
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

796
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 2: Well, Rich, I mean, this still comes down to what

797
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 2: we've all been talking about, because the Lakers and Lebron

798
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 2: insisting that he has no say, none, zero on who

799
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 2: the next coach is going to be. He publicly says

800
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 2: the Lakers need to do what's best for their future,

801
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,240
Speaker 2: and we just know that's not the case.

802
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 13: And that's why I think the Lakers were fine with

803
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 13: being used by Dan Hurley and woes for what they did,

804
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:26,840
Speaker 13: because they get to say, oh, look, we tried to

805
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 13: hire Dan Hurley, but we didn't, so now we can

806
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 13: blame Lebron if JJ Reddick goes sideways.

807
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:35,360
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and I what's really kind of it's like

808
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 1: the worst kept secret, or it's like the secret that

809
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: everybody knows but nobody wants to say out loud, the

810
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: fact that Lebron James is really secretly running the Lakers.

811
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: It's just so silly how he responds to things because

812
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,879
Speaker 1: he has final say or a very least right to disapproval. Right,

813
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: So if they go to editing on this movie and

814
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, even though the director has done

815
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,240
Speaker 1: all the work, and the actors have done all the work,

816
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 1: and you know whoever, you know, the sound guy has

817
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 1: added all the sound that was Steve's dad's old gig. Like,

818
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:17,160
Speaker 1: you get everything completely perfect, and then you present it

819
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 1: to Lebron James. He can hit cancel, he can say absolutely.

820
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 3: Not, I will not be coached by that guy. And

821
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 3: then what do you say, if your Genie Buss will.

822
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 1: Screw you, Lebron, you'll play under him or else? Or else?

823
00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: Is he leaves?

824
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 13: They have done that before.

825
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,280
Speaker 2: Though, to be fair, well and Mike, you said he leaves,

826
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,280
Speaker 2: the reality is he hasn't agreed yet to his player

827
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 2: option exactly. Everything still has to play out. He has

828
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 2: to get the coach he wants and they need to

829
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,240
Speaker 2: draft Brownie. And then, by the way, he may decide

830
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 2: after one year, if he gets that opportunity to get

831
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 2: some quality time on the court with his.

832
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 4: Son, that he's done. I'm done, I'm done. I've done

833
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 4: it all.

834
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 2: Then I walk away and oh, by the way, the

835
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 2: Lakers say, yeah, but we extended your deal, and he

836
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 2: goes yeah, and you're gonna still have to pay am

837
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,280
Speaker 2: all right? Coming up on the other side, we actually

838
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 2: have some NFL news. We got to get to people

839
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,520

Speaker 4: Celebrating with your father in law.

850
00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: Yep, yep. Biff Naylor eighty six years old and nice

851
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: and he's actually we were planning a trip up to

852
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 1: LA and the whole household up there in LA was

853
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,799
Speaker 1: under the weather, so we decided to lay it by week.

854
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 1: We'll be up in La next weekend.

855
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,399
Speaker 4: Very very nice. We'll see you then.

856
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 2: So what do you and I mean, I love how

857
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 2: it's your day, but then you're pretty much responsible for

858
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: the rest of the day. Do you have because we

859
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 2: were teasing it last week, you know, sort of your

860
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:12,280
Speaker 2: idea of like a good Father's Day feast.

861
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,400
Speaker 4: Do you have something planned like that this afternoon?

862
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: Well, so I bought the beef ribs. I bought the

863
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,319
Speaker 1: pork ribs. Like I figured I was going to be.

864
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,360
Speaker 1: I was going to be squired about, you know in

865
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,400
Speaker 1: the early part of the day, you know, told how

866
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: great of a dat I am, and then somebody was

867
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,040
Speaker 1: going to you know, throw an apron in my face

868
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: and go get in front of the grill. But but

869
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: what ended up happening was we got invited to another

870
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,360
Speaker 1: Father's Day celebration. So I'm off the hook someone else.

871
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 3: Now today today?

872
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, we'll good well enjoy that.

873
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 2: We're certainly enjoying things here again. Bryceon de Shambo with

874
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 2: a two shot lead over Rory McElroy. I mean, Rory McElroy.

875
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 2: Think about this, spen ten years since he won a major,

876
00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 2: since he won his last major in twenty four thirteen.

877
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 2: In the last ten years, he's had twenty top tens

878
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 2: and ten top fives in majors.

879
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: Wow.

880
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 4: I mean, so you talk about a.

881
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 2: Guy that's due, he's due, but Deshambo's been steadied.

882
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 4: So far, so too Shotley. By the way, here's a

883
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 4: quick note.

884
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 2: Scotty Scheffler, number one golfer in the world, came in

885
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 2: red hot. A lot of people obviously picking him to

886
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 2: win the US Open. He just didn't have it. And

887
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 2: here he finished. He just finishes round at plus eight.

888
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 2: But here's what makes this tournament unique for Scotty Scheffler. Now,

889
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,280
Speaker 2: obviously he's had tournaments where he has missed the cut,

890
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 2: but in tournaments in which he's played all four rounds

891
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 2: and there's one hundred and twenty of those, he has

892
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 2: never had a tournament until this tournament where he was

893
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,760
Speaker 2: over par in all four rounds.

894
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:52,720
Speaker 1: Wow.

895
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 2: First time ever for Scotty Scheffler that he had four

896
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 2: rounds every round was over par.

897
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 1: Well, it goes to show you outside of the albatross,

898
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: the rare bird that was tiger Woods. There are certain

899
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,240
Speaker 1: golfers who have their type of course they like to play,

900
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 1: you know, their type of their style of play that

901
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: they've grown accustomed to, whether it be in their upbringing,

902
00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: like you know, certain courses mimic the courses that they

903
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:28,320
Speaker 1: have the most experience on, or you know, the level

904
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: of travel or the conditions of the course, whether it

905
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: be warm or cold, or wet or dry or whatever.

906
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: You know, hilly or very flat, wide open or very

907
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,720
Speaker 1: confined in terms of woods. You know, all those things

908
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: matter and can have an effect on a golfer, like

909
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 1: I said, outside of Tiger Woods, who seem to be

910
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: able to win in a variety of different conditions and

911
00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:52,280
Speaker 1: courses and all those things I just mentioned.

912
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,839
Speaker 3: But Scotti Scheffler, he may not.

913
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 1: He just may not do well when the USGA kind

914
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: of sinks their claws into a course and makes it

915
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:06,919
Speaker 1: so that the greens have a tiny little area where

916
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 1: you can flop a shot onto and have it not

917
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,360
Speaker 1: roll off, you know, to have the greens cut so

918
00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:17,760
Speaker 1: short that it's like putting on a glass coffee table,

919
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 1: to have the fairways narrow, to have the rough extremely overgrown,

920
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 1: like the USGA. Their stated goal with the US Open

921
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: is to have the winning golfer shoot par, which if

922
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: you're doing the math, then you're doing it correctly.

923
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 3: I promise you are.

924
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,800
Speaker 1: It means every other golfer in the field is plus

925
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:35,440
Speaker 1: one or worse.

926
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 4: Right now, there are six golfers under par.

927
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:39,880
Speaker 3: That's incredible.

928
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,920
Speaker 4: Six six, that's it.

929
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 2: The only six players right now are under par for

930
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 2: this tournament.

931
00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 4: So it's playing out beautifully.

932
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,160
Speaker 2: Obviously, when we talk about Pinehurst, you're talking about one

933
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 2: of the legendary courses in America.

934
00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 4: I want to use a little golf analogy to get

935
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 4: us into the national football like all right.

936
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:00,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

937
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 2: So one of the leaders on the board right now,

938
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,280
Speaker 2: and I'm a little partial because the UCLA guy, Patrick Cantley,

939
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 2: and we just had Xavier Shaffley finally breakthrough and win

940
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 2: the PGA champions Xanders Sanders.

941
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, Xander Schoffley. I don't know it, said Xavier.

942
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,879
Speaker 4: It's the next thing. So Xander Schoffle finally breaks through

943
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 4: and wins the PGA.

944
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,359
Speaker 2: But talk about two golfers that have very similar resumes,

945
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 2: and then it goes in two different directions. So Xander

946
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 2: Schoffley has played going into this US Open in twenty

947
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 2: eight Majors. In those twenty eight majors, he's made thirteen

948
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 2: top tens and seven top fives. Patrick Cantlay And by

949
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,040
Speaker 2: the way, Xander Schoffley and Patrick Cantley have both won

950
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 2: eight PGA.

951
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:51,400
Speaker 4: Tournaments in their career.

952
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,360
Speaker 2: In other words, they've had a very successful career already

953
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 2: eight PGA tournament championships.

954
00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 4: So I mentioned it again.

955
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 2: Xander Schoffley twenty eight majors, thirteen top ten, seven top fives.

956
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 2: Patrick Cantley has played in twenty nine majors, four top tens,

957
00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 2: one top five. So the record is identical until it

958
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 2: gets to the majors. And where I'm going with this

959
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 2: right now is when we talk about quarterbacks and their

960
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:29,880
Speaker 2: ability to put up regular season numbers versus postseason numbers.

961
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 2: So the Jacksonville Jaguars have given Trevor Lawrence a contract

962
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 2: that now at least ties him in terms of salary

963
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:44,400
Speaker 2: with Joe Burrow. This is a guy whose record is

964
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 2: twenty one to thirty one including the postseason. It's also

965
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 2: a quarterback who last year after eight and three, one

966
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 2: in five down the stretch, and he gets rewarded with

967
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 2: I think it's one hundred and forty two million guaranteed

968
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence. But here's the thing that I've looked at

969
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:08,360
Speaker 2: over the years in terms of quarterbacks that have postseason

970
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 2: success versus those that somehow fall.

971
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,200
Speaker 4: Short in the postseason.

972
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:19,080
Speaker 2: Usually, if you have the aptitude to be a successful

973
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 2: playoff quarterback, it's there from the get go.

974
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,919
Speaker 4: Now, you might not win a Super Bowl.

975
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 2: But at least it shows that you're making progress in

976
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 2: the postseason in a positive way to build to that moment.

977
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 2: Almost every single quarterback that has had the ultimate success

978
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,440
Speaker 2: in the postseason in the NFL has always played well

979
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 2: in the postseason. Doesn't mean they win every game, but

980
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 2: they have played well. But those that don't play well,

981
00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 2: they continually fall down the same path. Now, when we

982
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 2: talk about Trevor Lawrence, maybe it's too early, But when we.

983
00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 4: Talk about Dak Prescott, it's not too early.

984
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 2: No, Just like it was with Tony Romo, just like

985
00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 2: it is with Lamar Jackson.

986
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:07,600
Speaker 1: You know, I.

987
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,359
Speaker 2: Always think back again to my Raider days when we

988
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 2: had Jim Plunkett versus Mark Wilson. Mark Wilson could throw

989
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 2: the ball much better than Jim Plunkett, but the players.

990
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 2: I would ask him, I say, what's the difference they

991
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 2: go When we're in that huddle with a guy that's

992
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 2: been there and done that, it raises all of us.

993
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 1: Yep, we all.

994
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 2: Play better when our leader has that on their resume.

995
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,680
Speaker 2: And so, you know, I was hurrying one of our

996
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 2: hosts the other day talking about, well, you know, tom

997
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,919
Speaker 2: Brady doesn't do it alone, and you know he's had help,

998
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:48,760
Speaker 2: and I'm like, no, you're not understanding. And Tom Brady

999
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,120
Speaker 2: is and rich you would know this firsthand. When you

1000
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 2: have someone like Tom Brady, he simply by being in

1001
00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:00,120
Speaker 2: that huddle raises the bar for everybody.

1002
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:04,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, to give you like an example of the feeling

1003
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,840
Speaker 1: that you have when a Tom Brady is in the

1004
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,200
Speaker 1: huddle with you, or even a Philip Rivers is in

1005
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 1: the huddle with you versus another quarterback. And I'm not

1006
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,960
Speaker 1: gonna name any other quarterbacks that I played with, you know,

1007
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,839
Speaker 1: I don't want to embarrass anybody because that's not what

1008
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:23,760
Speaker 1: this is about. But there is a very different feeling

1009
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,360
Speaker 1: when you're in the huddle with a different quarterback. It

1010
00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: feels like that you're the one supporting them as opposed

1011
00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 1: to the other way. Around, Like when Tom Brady's in

1012
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 1: the huddle. It's that feeling when you're a little kid, like, oh,

1013
00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 1: Dad's in the room. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like,

1014
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 1: oh wow, Like we're gonna be okay because Dad's here.

1015
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:45,800
Speaker 3: You know, when when you have.

1016
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 1: Your your cousin babysitting.

1017
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 3: For you, completely a different feeling.

1018
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 1: Ah, it's cousin Jim, Jim's all right, But when Dad's there,

1019
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 1: everything's fine.

1020
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:57,560
Speaker 3: That's the difference.

1021
00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:01,240
Speaker 1: Like when you have a true field general in the huddle,

1022
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 1: there is a gravitas, there is a feeling of everything's

1023
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:08,840
Speaker 1: gonna be all right, and frankly, it's earned. It's not

1024
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 1: something that you have entering the league. When Tom Brady

1025
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 1: was a sixth rounder out of Michigan, trust me, there

1026
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 1: were a lot of people who were in the Flutie camp.

1027
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: I promise you, I promise you there, or excuse me,

1028
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 1: in the Bledsoe camp.

1029
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:22,040
Speaker 3: There was a lot.

1030
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,080
Speaker 1: Of people who wanted him in the huddle because you

1031
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: got to earn it. But once you earn it, then

1032
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 1: it's it's the only thing you want. It's everything you chase.

1033
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:36,359
Speaker 1: It's the reason why there were receiver after receiver after

1034
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 1: receiver leaving beautiful coastal cities where they were the highest

1035
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:46,560
Speaker 1: paid receiver, and they were coming to play in New England,

1036
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,040
Speaker 1: where the weathers are hard, where the weather's harsh al

1037
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:53,879
Speaker 1: all year long except for three months where it's not. Look.

1038
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,280
Speaker 1: I mean, Boston is a fine town. I'm not gonna

1039
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:58,239
Speaker 1: say anything bad about the city. I loved it. I

1040
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 1: lived in Boston. But I mean it's not Miami, you

1041
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's not even North Carolina. I

1042
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 1: mean there's a lot of places around the United States

1043
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,320
Speaker 1: that there. I'm sure there's a lot of football players

1044
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 1: who would rather live. LA now has two teams like

1045
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 1: but when you have an opportunity to play with a

1046
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,959
Speaker 1: player like Tom Brady, it's a completely different thing. Going

1047
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,720
Speaker 1: back to the conversation you're just having about Trevor Lawrence

1048
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 1: getting this amazing amount of money, I understand the argument

1049
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,080
Speaker 1: and I completely agree with it. But at the same token,

1050
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,799
Speaker 1: this is just the cost of doing business in this

1051
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: zip code. And I always compare the quarterback conversation to

1052
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 1: real estate because I think it's a great way to

1053
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 1: look at it. It's the most understandable way that I've

1054
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:42,680
Speaker 1: ever looked at it.

1055
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 3: When you buy a house.

1056
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 1: The aim is to try to buy a house that's

1057
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 1: going to hold its value, whether you're buying or by

1058
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 1: the way, or increase in value, whether you're buying a

1059
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:57,919
Speaker 1: turnkey property that you don't have to put any sweat,

1060
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,880
Speaker 1: a sweat equity into just by you of being in

1061
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:03,280
Speaker 1: this zip code, it is going to increase in value

1062
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 1: over time.

1063
00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 3: Then buy that house. If you're gonna buy a fixer on.

1064
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 1: That same block that you know, if you put in

1065
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,359
Speaker 1: one hundred two hundred thousand dollars worth of effort, you know,

1066
00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 1: improve the landscaping, redo the kitchen, and a couple of bathrooms,

1067
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:17,399
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you have.

1068
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,760
Speaker 3: A high high end house on a very good block

1069
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 3: and a very good zip code.

1070
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,400
Speaker 1: Well go for it. There's a way to find value

1071
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 1: in both. And the comparison I just made to you

1072
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 1: would be like re signing a Patrick Mahomes he's the

1073
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:35,000
Speaker 1: turnkey property in that good zip code, or finding a

1074
00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield who was a little bit of a fixer.

1075
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 1: You bought him for a million dollars and then you

1076
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,239
Speaker 1: invested a bunch of money in him, but you're not

1077
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 1: spending as much as you.

1078
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 3: Would on a Patrick Mahomes.

1079
00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 1: You're not spending as much money on him as you

1080
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,200
Speaker 1: would a Joe Burrow, but you're spending a little bit

1081
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:52,520
Speaker 1: of money on him. You're putting about thirty million dollars

1082
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 1: into the kitty and you're gonna see how it goes

1083
00:53:54,719 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: for you. Well, guess what.

1084
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,040
Speaker 3: It's expensive to do business in the NFL.

1085
00:53:58,760 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 1: At the quarterback market.

1086
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you got to figure out if he is

1087
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:03,240
Speaker 4: the guy.

1088
00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:06,919
Speaker 2: I mean, Dak Prescott is two and five in the postseason,

1089
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson's two and four in the postseason.

1090
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 4: I mean, if your ultimate goal is.

1091
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 2: And you know, I got a lot of blowback when

1092
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:20,319
Speaker 2: I define franchise quarterback, And in my mind, there's one

1093
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:24,600
Speaker 2: right now. His name is Patrick Mahomes because not only

1094
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 2: has he won a championship, he's done it several times.

1095
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 2: So I mean, if you're I mean, there's a difference

1096
00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:36,200
Speaker 2: to me between this. It's like the overutilized term superstar. Yeah,

1097
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 2: I mean, Michael Jordan was a superstar.

1098
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 4: You know, Tom Brady is a superstar.

1099
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 2: To put it other people like, you know, well, you know,

1100
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes is a superstar. Josh Allen's a really good quarterback.

1101
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 2: But you got Burros a really good quarterback. These are

1102
00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 2: not superstars.

1103
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:57,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.

1104
00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 2: Better than average, I'll give him that, but I mean,

1105
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:03,080
Speaker 2: come on, I mean, seriously, you can include them in

1106
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:06,440
Speaker 2: the same conversation as Patrick Mahomes.

1107
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:07,600
Speaker 3: I don't disagree with you.

1108
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 1: I think Brady is in and was in an echelon

1109
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:13,719
Speaker 1: of his own when he was playing. I feel the

1110
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 1: same way about Patrick Mahomes. In fact, I've said this before.

1111
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 1: I think Brady is the greatest of all time. But

1112
00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 1: I'd make the argument to anybody that I think Patrick

1113
00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 1: Mahomes is the most talented quarterback we've ever seen at.

1114
00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 4: This stage of his career.

1115
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,800
Speaker 2: He's had the best career of any quarterback in NFL history.

1116
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 1: His skill set at this point is undeniable. I mean,

1117
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 1: he's a better athlete than Brady. Will see how the

1118
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: stats end up, whether it'll prove it or not, but

1119
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 1: you can make the argument that he's a better thrower

1120
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,880
Speaker 1: of the football. I mean, this guy he's from, he

1121
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 1: feels unstoppable.

1122
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:48,879
Speaker 3: So look, I agree with you Patrick Mahomes. No argument here.

1123
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 1: He's a superstar and I think all other lights that

1124
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,520
Speaker 1: shine around him in terms of quarterback play in the

1125
00:55:55,600 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 1: NFL dim in comparison to his bright, shining star. However,

1126
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: I want to humanize this conversation because I always thought

1127
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:05,040
Speaker 1: you took it too.

1128
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:07,680
Speaker 3: Far when you when you when you set the bar.

1129
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes for a franchise quarterback, because I understand that's

1130
00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 1: what everybody's chasing. But you also have to understand that

1131
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: these are people who run businesses. So the owner, he's

1132
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:22,279
Speaker 1: investing a ton of money into having a successful franchise,

1133
00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 1: and success is a subjective term. Success to the Chiefs

1134
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:30,400
Speaker 1: is winning next year Super Bowl. Success to the Jacksonville

1135
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:34,480
Speaker 1: Jaguars is making a deep run. I'm fairly certain they

1136
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,759
Speaker 1: would be satisfied. Shodkhan and his son and the other

1137
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 1: people around him would probably be happy with that. Justin

1138
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,600
Speaker 1: Herbert and the Chargers year one, with Jim Harbaugh getting

1139
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,760
Speaker 1: to the postseason, I think the majority of the people

1140
00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,760
Speaker 1: in that franchise, outside of maybe Herbert and Jim Harbaugh,

1141
00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 1: who are ultimately some of the most headstrong competitors we

1142
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,840
Speaker 1: know of, in that franchise, I think there's gonna be

1143
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:57,640
Speaker 1: a lot of satisfied faces.

1144
00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:00,759
Speaker 3: So you have to remember success is subjective.

1145
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:05,160
Speaker 1: A franchise quarterback, even is a subjective conversation, But to me,

1146
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 1: a franchise quarterback is the type of quarterback who, if

1147
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:11,399
Speaker 1: he plays the way he's supposed to play, everybody keeps

1148
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 1: their jobs.

1149
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:14,120
Speaker 3: Everybody keeps their jobs.

1150
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: So to a tongue of I LOA has played well

1151
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:20,439
Speaker 1: enough that the general manager isn't getting fired, the head

1152
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 1: coach isn't getting fired. Right, Josh Allen has played well

1153
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: enough that the head coach isn't getting fired. By the way,

1154
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 1: he did have a dip in performance after his offensive

1155
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 1: coordinator left, and so they fired another offensive coordinator to

1156
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: make sure that everybody was on warning, like, hey, we're

1157
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:40,440
Speaker 1: cutting a little close to the bone here. We're feeling

1158
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 1: like we're subjectively failing instead of succeeding. And then his

1159
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,919
Speaker 1: play started going in the right direction. They made the postseason,

1160
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,920
Speaker 1: they get knocked out by the Chiefs. The story is written,

1161
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 1: but there are varying levels of success. And when you

1162
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 1: humanize it and you say to yourself, am I paying

1163
00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:01,560
Speaker 1: a quarterback here in Jacksonville that's going to keep everybody's

1164
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:02,520
Speaker 1: jobs around here?

1165
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 3: The answer is yeah.

1166
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 1: And that's the reason why the decision maker said, Hey, shot,

1167
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 1: owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. We've got to sign this

1168
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,560
Speaker 1: kid because if we don't. If we don't, someone else

1169
00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:17,960
Speaker 1: will and they'll pay him more. Yeah.

1170
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:19,760
Speaker 4: Well that's the risk you take.

1171
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,040
Speaker 2: But again, if you're giving him all that money, well,

1172
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,040
Speaker 2: look at we go on and on and on.

1173
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 4: The bottom line is is that here's the good news.

1174
00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 2: No matter how bad an owner you are in the NFL,

1175
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:33,120
Speaker 2: you're still going to make money.

1176
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 4: Okay, it doesn't matter. Yeah, I mean we have some

1177
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:38,439
Speaker 4: miserable owners in this league.

1178
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:43,200
Speaker 2: Yes, and they're still raking him money beside aside from

1179
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 2: the fact that they have no clue what they're doing.

1180
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 2: All right, coming up on the other side, by the way,

1181
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 2: Bryson deshambo just bogie the fourth hole and this course

1182
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 2: looks brutal today for this final round of the US UP.

1183
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 2: And we'll keep you updated on that. And again we're

1184
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 2: gonna get back to another story that just simply doesn't

1185
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:08,240
Speaker 2: go away. We'll try to explain why this is Fox

1186
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday. Steve Harbin or Rich Armberger, Fox Sports Sunday.

1187
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:16,720
Speaker 2: We are live from the Tairaq dot Com studios, and

1188
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 2: Rory McElroy just bogeyed the fifth hole, which is not good.

1189
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:27,880
Speaker 2: There's two par fives and two par threes in this course.

1190
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 2: It's a par seventy for this tournament. So the par

1191
00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 2: five's you need the birdie. He just bogeed after he

1192
00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 2: hit kind of shot you and I would hit. He

1193
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,720
Speaker 2: was in sort of that fringe stuff, you know, like,

1194
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 2: and he tried to chip it onto the green and

1195
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:48,120
Speaker 2: it rolled right back into the trap. Did not hit

1196
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 2: a great trap shot, and he just missed barely the

1197
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,360
Speaker 2: par putts, so he falls back to minus four. Meanwhile,

1198
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 2: the t shot for De Shamble on number five is

1199
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,680
Speaker 2: also in the hay. So things looking like a major

1200
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,040
Speaker 2: should you know where it's You're just trying to get

1201
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 2: par and good stuff going on there, all right. So

1202
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 2: earlier this morning, I'm watching the Fever Sky game. Yeah,

1203
01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:16,240
Speaker 2: and it just never ends with Caitlin Clark, right, But

1204
01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:21,560
Speaker 2: this is her second matchup against Angel Reese. And to

1205
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,800
Speaker 2: Kaitlin Clark's credit, because she's had some really bad games recently,

1206
01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 2: this was absolutely one of her best games of the year.

1207
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:32,000
Speaker 2: She played great, but she seemed to be and by

1208
01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:33,920
Speaker 2: the way, the scene is only the fifth time the

1209
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:36,240
Speaker 2: Fever won a game this year, two against the Sky

1210
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 2: and Angel Reese. But during this game, Angel Reese delivered

1211
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 2: a deliberate shot.

1212
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 4: To Caitlin Clark's head.

1213
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:50,439
Speaker 2: I mean, it wasn't even remotely going for the ball.

1214
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:52,720
Speaker 2: You know, sometimes you can sort of get away with it,

1215
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 2: you like going for the ball, but then purposely follow

1216
01:00:55,400 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 2: through and hit somebody.

1217
01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:57,760
Speaker 4: This was not that at all.

1218
01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,240
Speaker 2: This was one of those I am going to hit

1219
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 2: you on the side of the head. By the way,

1220
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 2: with her elbow, Kaitlin Clark went down, by the way,

1221
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,600
Speaker 2: we were watching this through. We did not see any

1222
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 2: of Caitlyn Clark's teammates come to her to actually help

1223
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:17,240
Speaker 2: her up. Angel rees though out of a flagrant file

1224
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,880
Speaker 2: for that one. After they reviewed the play and then

1225
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,400
Speaker 2: Montzi was pointing out the fact that Angel Reese is

1226
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:27,439
Speaker 2: now wearing a rebox shoe that has the Joker on it,

1227
01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:31,560
Speaker 2: like the bad guy Joker. So she's milking this for

1228
01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:35,880
Speaker 2: everything because people understand the connection between Angel Reese and

1229
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,560
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark going back to their college days, and Angel

1230
01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,920
Speaker 2: Reese is finding out realizing that, hey, if I want

1231
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:45,720
Speaker 2: to continue to be relevant like people talking about me,

1232
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:49,440
Speaker 2: I got to maintain this connection as the good versus

1233
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 2: bad here with Caitlyn Clark. But this whole thing just

1234
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 2: it just keeps going and going and going.

1235
01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 4: I thought people would tire of this.

1236
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 1: They're not, no, because look, if there's one thing that

1237
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:08,800
Speaker 1: people do genuinely like, it's it's reality. And when they

1238
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:12,920
Speaker 1: can't have reality, they like to have fake reality created

1239
01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: for them.

1240
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:15,360
Speaker 3: Look, reality television.

1241
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:17,320
Speaker 1: I hate to pull back the curtain a little too

1242
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:19,360
Speaker 1: far for people who are not ready to hear this

1243
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 1: twenty years later. Reality television is not real. It's all scripted. Yes,

1244
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 1: everybody knows what's gonna happen. These seasons are plotted out

1245
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:34,160
Speaker 1: in living rooms, in boardrooms, and both executives over the

1246
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 1: course of sometimes several years. So this should come as

1247
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,880
Speaker 1: no surprise to anybody. But I think there still are

1248
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 1: some people who are a little naive.

1249
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 2: Oh no, there are people. They're screaming at you right now.

1250
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:50,200
Speaker 2: Rich It's real, man, it's real.

1251
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:53,919
Speaker 1: It's as real as professional wrestling, and to be still real,

1252
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:57,800
Speaker 1: to be damn it, perfectly honest with you, the WNBA

1253
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 1: is becoming professional and old wrestling. I hate this because

1254
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 1: it deserves better. I mean, it's a real sport. Just

1255
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,880
Speaker 1: because I'm not particularly interested in women's basketball. It's not

1256
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 1: subjectively something that I really watch a ton of which,

1257
01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:17,320
Speaker 1: by the way, there are other sports that exist in

1258
01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 1: a blind spot for me. I'm not the biggest hockey

1259
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:20,720
Speaker 1: fan on television.

1260
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:22,640
Speaker 4: You watch soccer day and night.

1261
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:24,120
Speaker 3: I'm not a big soccer fan.

1262
01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:27,479
Speaker 1: Look, I watch football, basketball, I watch baseball. I watch

1263
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,360
Speaker 1: a ton of it, and then on the fringe, I'm

1264
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,160
Speaker 1: interested in the fight game when there's a boxing match.

1265
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:34,480
Speaker 3: I'm really interested.

1266
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:35,720
Speaker 4: Your golf championship.

1267
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:39,880
Speaker 1: Golf, of course, especially around the majors this weekend, especially

1268
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:43,640
Speaker 1: for the Open Championship, the Masters, the PGA Championship. Do

1269
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 1: you watch Wimbledon the FedEx Cup? Occasionally I'll turn on

1270
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:49,520
Speaker 1: the Wimbledon. But here's the deal. When it comes to

1271
01:03:49,520 --> 01:03:54,640
Speaker 1: women's basketball, it's not it doesn't particularly interest me. But

1272
01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:59,240
Speaker 1: I will say this, Kate, when Clark interests me. This

1273
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:03,280
Speaker 1: storyline with Kaitlyn Clark interests me. The fact that she

1274
01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 1: has had a tough transition into pro basketball interest me.

1275
01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:12,840
Speaker 1: I've watched hundreds of percent more basketball on the woman's

1276
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 1: side than I ever have, and it's a result of

1277
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:19,240
Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark's involvement. And by the way, on my timeline

1278
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 1: now I'm seeing highlights from WNBA games, whereas in years past,

1279
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:29,440
Speaker 1: never before, never before, certainly not understanding who's involved. But

1280
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:33,560
Speaker 1: when I saw that Caitlyn Clark moment come across my timeline,

1281
01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:35,640
Speaker 1: not only did I know it was Kaitlin Clark who

1282
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:38,520
Speaker 1: was being fouled, but I also knew that it was

1283
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:42,920
Speaker 1: Angel Rees fouling her. I could probably have named a

1284
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:47,640
Speaker 1: handful of players, maybe gun to my head, you know,

1285
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:50,640
Speaker 1: in the past. Now I've got a growing list of

1286
01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:54,160
Speaker 1: characters involved in the WNBA and it's all thanks to

1287
01:04:54,240 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark.

1288
01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:57,720
Speaker 2: Well, and again it is thanks to Caitlin Clark and

1289
01:04:57,720 --> 01:05:02,480
Speaker 2: Andel Reese. It's a marketing bonanza foot they do in

1290
01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,080
Speaker 2: this game. If I deliver a shot like that, yeah,

1291
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:07,560
Speaker 2: people are gonna watch it. It's gonna be replayed on

1292
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:09,680
Speaker 2: social media over No, you can't.

1293
01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:11,840
Speaker 1: Go too far, though, because I'm telling you, Steve Yes,

1294
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:15,080
Speaker 1: the w NBA should lean into, you know, beef, and

1295
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: should lean into all the things the NBA leans into.

1296
01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:23,520
Speaker 1: But if if your league becomes about the women who

1297
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:27,600
Speaker 1: want to become famous taking pot shots like Kennedy Carter,

1298
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:31,600
Speaker 1: now it's Angel Reese taking cheap shots at the biggest

1299
01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:34,400
Speaker 1: star your sport has ever had. Like, that's the reason

1300
01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:38,240
Speaker 1: why you continually go viral. Because Caitlin Clark, you know,

1301
01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 1: the the brand new first overall draft pick the hawk

1302
01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:45,600
Speaker 1: guy who's playing for the hometown state or her home time.

1303
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:50,120
Speaker 1: She gets annihilated night after night just because some of

1304
01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 1: these other quote unquote stars like Angel Reese want to

1305
01:05:54,720 --> 01:05:58,360
Speaker 1: get close to the torch. I mean, you gotta be

1306
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,800
Speaker 1: careful because that's not what you to be known for.

1307
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:04,240
Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what is trending right now.

1308
01:06:04,280 --> 01:06:07,200
Speaker 2: She's been all over this story and every other story

1309
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:07,720
Speaker 2: going on.

1310
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 1: That would be.

1311
01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:14,320
Speaker 2: Mancy Belanya, who was all over this Angel Reese's shoes.

1312
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 10: Yes, yes, the joker they're actually pretty cool looking.

1313
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:18,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1314
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 10: And as I think I've said, I was like, I

1315
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:24,080
Speaker 10: would lean into the villain role if I chose, like,

1316
01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:26,200
Speaker 10: you know, if I wanted to. Like, I'm not against

1317
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:26,960
Speaker 10: her leaning names.

1318
01:06:27,120 --> 01:06:28,760
Speaker 4: Joel Reese is trending right now.

1319
01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:30,480
Speaker 10: Of course she is. Of course she is.

1320
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,880
Speaker 2: People are arguing in no names that she plays, is

1321
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 2: she trending unless she has a matchup against Caitlyn Clark,

1322
01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:44,240
Speaker 2: And in both of these games, she knows exactly what

1323
01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:44,840
Speaker 2: she's doing.

1324
01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,439
Speaker 11: I mean, it's hard to believe that she doesn't right,

1325
01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:50,200
Speaker 11: that she's not embracing it, pushing into it. Now, you

1326
01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:52,480
Speaker 11: know that the foul that was upgraded to a flicker

1327
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 11: in one it's like, yeah, she I don't think she

1328
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,280
Speaker 11: was trying to hate Kaylyn, Yes she was. I think

1329
01:06:57,320 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 11: she really wanted to block her. I think she know

1330
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:01,600
Speaker 11: you want to she is.

1331
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:04,040
Speaker 2: First of all, Monsei is changing her two we watched

1332
01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 2: this together. Yes, she's not even looking at the ball,

1333
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:07,919
Speaker 2: but that's what I think.

1334
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:11,120
Speaker 11: She wanted it so bad that she didn't think about it,

1335
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,400
Speaker 11: that she lost control. I've seen the She didn't just

1336
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:15,479
Speaker 11: hit her over the head.

1337
01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 4: She had the elbow to.

1338
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 11: That in a certain angle, it looks robot.

1339
01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:23,120
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm gonna speak from from somebody who spent his

1340
01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:27,960
Speaker 1: entire life in combat on the offensive line. Yes, she

1341
01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:32,720
Speaker 1: knew exactly what she was doing. Oh yeah, listen, I'm

1342
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,640
Speaker 1: telling you you are when you're a basketball player, especially

1343
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:38,040
Speaker 1: like you know, this isn't a situation where I don't know,

1344
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:39,800
Speaker 1: maybe you could make an excuse if it was a

1345
01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:42,480
Speaker 1: lacrosse like, hey, I meant to go for the stick.

1346
01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not a part of my body.

1347
01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 3: Sometimes, you know, you swing the stick, it hits.

1348
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:49,720
Speaker 1: You know, hockey, you know, maybe you give somebody because

1349
01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:52,400
Speaker 1: they're holding a stick, you know. But when we're talking

1350
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 1: about your body, that's your forearm that you are swinging

1351
01:07:56,240 --> 01:08:00,680
Speaker 1: towards somebody else's head. You know exactly what you're doing.

1352
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:02,480
Speaker 3: That felt very intentional.

1353
01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,560
Speaker 11: Yeah, I feel like she just wanted to block her

1354
01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 11: so bad. I've been watching this video a thousand times

1355
01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,080
Speaker 11: and no, definitely a flaker at one and there was

1356
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 11: an angle on the shot where it does look like

1357
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:15,840
Speaker 11: her elbow hits the side of her temple, which is

1358
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 11: a scary shot to hit somebody there.

1359
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:21,240
Speaker 10: So but I just look, I think she really just

1360
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:22,040
Speaker 10: wanted to block her.

1361
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 11: She wanted the moment, She wanted the glory of blocking

1362
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,679
Speaker 11: Caitlyn Clark, and it did not go her way. In fact,

1363
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,200
Speaker 11: it didn't just go the way for the Sky because

1364
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,120
Speaker 11: they lost to the Fever ninety one to eighty three.

1365
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:35,360
Speaker 11: Kaitlyn Clark twenty three, eight and nine was her final

1366
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,639
Speaker 11: stat line, but she didn't do it alone. I Leah Boston,

1367
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:40,360
Speaker 11: who was a number one overall pick last year nineteen

1368
01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 11: and fourteen, nine to thirteen from the field two games

1369
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,719
Speaker 11: going on right now in the WNBA, the Mercury beating

1370
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:48,240
Speaker 11: the Storm thirty seven twenty three, about four minutes to

1371
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:50,559
Speaker 11: go in the first half, with the Dream up on

1372
01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:51,640
Speaker 11: the Sparks.

1373
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:53,599
Speaker 10: Twenty nine to twenty three, six minutes to go.

1374
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:57,120
Speaker 11: In the first half. We'll check in on Major League Baseball.

1375
01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:00,000
Speaker 11: A Grand Slam already on the day and it was

1376
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:01,320
Speaker 11: for the Blue Jays.

1377
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:02,400
Speaker 10: Dalton var shows.

1378
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,960
Speaker 11: So right now the Blue Jays are beating the Guardian

1379
01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:07,639
Speaker 11: seven to four. It's the seventh inning, the race still

1380
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:09,600
Speaker 11: on top of the Braves sixty four, bottom.

1381
01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 10: Of the eighth. Another homer for the Orioles.

1382
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,840
Speaker 11: Now it's Jordan and Westburg, so that's four players have

1383
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 11: homers and the Orioles are beating the Phillies at home,

1384
01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,880
Speaker 11: eight two, top of the seventh inning, Nationals up on

1385
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:22,559
Speaker 11: the Marlins three to one, top of the eighth, with

1386
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:24,840
Speaker 11: the Cardinals still beating the Cubs two to one. It

1387
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:27,720
Speaker 11: is the top of the ninth inning in Chicago, the

1388
01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:30,160
Speaker 11: Mets beating the Padres at home seven to two, top

1389
01:09:30,200 --> 01:09:32,479
Speaker 11: of the sixth, the Reds with the three to one

1390
01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:35,040
Speaker 11: lead over the Brewers top of the sixth inning.

1391
01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:36,040
Speaker 10: Ellie de La.

1392
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,960
Speaker 11: Cruz stole second, stole third. They try to pick him off,

1393
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 11: and then he got home.

1394
01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 10: He's just too fast. He's just too fast.

1395
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:47,759
Speaker 4: I I I miss see again.

1396
01:09:47,920 --> 01:09:51,479
Speaker 2: Old school baseball had way more activity on the base pass. Yeah,

1397
01:09:51,520 --> 01:09:54,479
Speaker 2: I mean every team had that leadoff guy. He got

1398
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:57,000
Speaker 2: on base and then he would be off and running.

1399
01:09:57,640 --> 01:09:58,519
Speaker 2: I miss those days.

1400
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 10: Yeah, No, he brings that. He brings that back for sure.

1401
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,400
Speaker 11: Astro is blanking the Tigers four zero bottom of the six,

1402
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,120
Speaker 11: Twins blanking the A's four zero bottom of the fifth.

1403
01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:08,840
Speaker 10: It's game one of a double Hudder and.

1404
01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:11,080
Speaker 11: The Pirates with the lead over the Rockies to one

1405
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:14,720
Speaker 11: bottom of the second inning. Bryson Deshambos still in the

1406
01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,240
Speaker 11: lead at the US Open six under par, though he

1407
01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:21,679
Speaker 11: is won over for the day through five holes.

1408
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:23,840
Speaker 10: Rory McElroy even through six holes.

1409
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 11: Rory McElroy two shots back, Patrick Cantley, Matthew Pavaughn. Now

1410
01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 11: three shots back back to you guys.

1411
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,599
Speaker 2: All right, very very good, Yeah, thanks for getting interesting.

1412
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:36,599
Speaker 2: Here is uh again? When you're playing for a major

1413
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,599
Speaker 2: golf championship, it's supposed to be tough.

1414
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:39,840
Speaker 10: It is supposed to be and.

1415
01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:42,040
Speaker 2: Right now Pinehurst is doing a number here on the

1416
01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:45,280
Speaker 2: leaders Somebody's gonna survive and win that championship.

1417
01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:46,680
Speaker 4: Hi, Monzie, thank you very much.

1418
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 2: We'll check in with you a little bit later on

1419
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,719
Speaker 2: Steve Hartman, Rich Ornberger with you here on Fox Sports

1420
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,400
Speaker 2: Sunday on this Father's Day, and hope all the dads

1421
01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:56,160
Speaker 2: are having a great day out there.

1422
01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:58,760
Speaker 4: Hopefully you remember dad on Father's Day.

1423
01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:02,320
Speaker 2: That would be you and I all three of my

1424
01:11:02,439 --> 01:11:06,639
Speaker 2: kids A plus A plus because they wrote thoughtful cards.

1425
01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:09,240
Speaker 2: So their dad, that's all I care about. And I

1426
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:12,120
Speaker 2: know your son's really wrote something nice.

1427
01:11:11,960 --> 01:11:12,519
Speaker 1: To you today.

1428
01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:15,120
Speaker 2: At what point you have an eight year old a

1429
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:17,080
Speaker 2: five year old, because I'm trying to think back, like

1430
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 2: when when it is that you start like, yeah, you

1431
01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:25,120
Speaker 2: need to step up and like write something, you know,

1432
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,559
Speaker 2: like I think it was just like I love you

1433
01:11:27,640 --> 01:11:28,800
Speaker 2: dad or something like that.

1434
01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:33,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. The eight year old, he's at the point now

1435
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:35,680
Speaker 1: where he can sit down and write a card for

1436
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,759
Speaker 1: a friend or a family member and it'll range from

1437
01:11:39,720 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 1: a scribble on a white piece of printer paper to

1438
01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:47,760
Speaker 1: like this elaborate, you know thing with cutouts and you know,

1439
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:51,200
Speaker 1: sock puppets. I mean, it's unbelievable. So he's at the

1440
01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:55,360
Speaker 1: age where he could do it. He he opted not

1441
01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:57,280
Speaker 1: to make a card this year, which you know, that's

1442
01:11:57,320 --> 01:12:00,000
Speaker 1: a choice and it will be reflected in his life.

1443
01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,160
Speaker 2: So there is a way to get back of it.

1444
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:06,840
Speaker 2: Rich has told me this many times over the years.

1445
01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 2: When it comes to the kicking specialist on a team,

1446
01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:15,200
Speaker 2: they're just sort of off on their own little world, right,

1447
01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,960
Speaker 2: I mean they have they're on their own little corner there,

1448
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,400
Speaker 2: and you got the punter, you got the kicker, maybe

1449
01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:22,680
Speaker 2: you got a long snapper, the holder, and they're just

1450
01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:25,360
Speaker 2: sort of doing their thing while you're grunting it out

1451
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,920
Speaker 2: there during training camp, you know, getting ready for the season.

1452
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,519
Speaker 2: And so for most teams, in fact almost every team,

1453
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:37,920
Speaker 2: the kicker and the punter are really the last persons

1454
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,479
Speaker 2: that you're talking about on a team. There is a

1455
01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:44,160
Speaker 2: team though, that is a complete diversion of this that

1456
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:46,920
Speaker 2: would be your Super Bowl champion, Kansas City Chiefs.

1457
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:47,360
Speaker 1: That's right.

1458
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:48,960
Speaker 4: First, you have Harrison.

1459
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:52,000
Speaker 2: Bucker with his comments that are still being talked about

1460
01:12:52,479 --> 01:12:55,759
Speaker 2: after his speech is commencement speech where he talked about

1461
01:12:56,120 --> 01:13:00,000
Speaker 2: his values and his thoughts on women's role in the world.

1462
01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:05,200
Speaker 2: And now it apparently is a done deal that Matt Riza,

1463
01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 2: the former San Diego State punter. You saw his whole

1464
01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:12,200
Speaker 2: career and we interviewed him many times over the years,

1465
01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:15,400
Speaker 2: is now going to get a second chance at the NFL.

1466
01:13:15,560 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 2: In fact, the Chiefs have released their number one punter

1467
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:20,760
Speaker 2: to clear room for a Riza, who will be the

1468
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:24,439
Speaker 2: chief punter coming up here in the twenty twenty four season.

1469
01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:27,360
Speaker 4: Now, this guy said all kinds of NCAA records.

1470
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:31,519
Speaker 2: I mean, his leg is ridiculous, And I know Brady Hokus,

1471
01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:34,360
Speaker 2: coach said, I've never had a team where it's clear

1472
01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:37,040
Speaker 2: that our punter is by far the best player on

1473
01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:40,639
Speaker 2: our team. But then he got accused of being part

1474
01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:44,600
Speaker 2: of a gang rape of an underage girl. Eventually the

1475
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:47,519
Speaker 2: Chargers were dropped and now he's back in. But you

1476
01:13:47,560 --> 01:13:50,040
Speaker 2: know it's going to be a subject, you know, once

1477
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:52,800
Speaker 2: you get to training camp. So you're gonna have reporters

1478
01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:56,800
Speaker 2: surrounding your kicker bucker about his comments, and then you're

1479
01:13:56,800 --> 01:13:59,439
Speaker 2: gonna have Ariza also answering a lot of questions like

1480
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:03,639
Speaker 2: what exactly did happen? This just does not happen where

1481
01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:07,800
Speaker 2: the center controversy is swirling around the two kickers on

1482
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:08,280
Speaker 2: your team.

1483
01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:09,760
Speaker 3: Well, and then don't forget about it.

1484
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,240
Speaker 1: They also have a receiver, yes, Shee Rice, who had

1485
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:13,680
Speaker 1: a very busy offseason.

1486
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:16,280
Speaker 2: A couple of offensive lineman got busted. They even had

1487
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:17,719
Speaker 2: another guy just get arrested.

1488
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Chiefs have a lot of public relations work

1489
01:14:22,400 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 1: to deal with. And look, this is the case with

1490
01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say most of the NFL, but with many

1491
01:14:31,400 --> 01:14:34,000
Speaker 1: NFL teams. They're gonna look past a lot of the

1492
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,479
Speaker 1: off the field stuff to make sure that the stuff

1493
01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:41,200
Speaker 1: on the field is as good as it possibly can be.

1494
01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 1: So I don't think once we get to the season,

1495
01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:48,640
Speaker 1: when most people's eyes in terms of kickers and receivers

1496
01:14:49,040 --> 01:14:51,920
Speaker 1: are going to be on their fantasy football team, all

1497
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:55,640
Speaker 1: of a sudden, morality starts getting starts taking a backseat

1498
01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:56,240
Speaker 1: to production.

1499
01:14:56,680 --> 01:14:58,240
Speaker 3: So the off season is.

1500
01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:03,759
Speaker 1: All about morality though, And Harrison Bucker, whatever your opinion

1501
01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:06,720
Speaker 1: on him, whether he's a pig because he said disgusting

1502
01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:10,360
Speaker 1: things and you completely disagree, or he said things that

1503
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:15,640
Speaker 1: resonates with you because his beliefs represent your beliefs, I

1504
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,800
Speaker 1: don't think this is as big of a story as

1505
01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:20,719
Speaker 1: what matteriza win through.

1506
01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:22,519
Speaker 3: What matterizesa went through.

1507
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:25,400
Speaker 1: And look there have been many others who have gone

1508
01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:27,760
Speaker 1: through this, and I've played with many players who've gone

1509
01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:33,400
Speaker 1: through things like this. He was wrongfully and falsely accused

1510
01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:37,120
Speaker 1: for something he did not do, and his name was

1511
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:40,439
Speaker 1: dragged through the mud for two years, and as a

1512
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:44,599
Speaker 1: result of that, he lost an incredible amount of money.

1513
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:48,400
Speaker 1: In fact, he launched a countersuit that he later dropped

1514
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:50,360
Speaker 1: because he just wanted to move on with the rest

1515
01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:53,040
Speaker 1: of his life, and it really probably would have just

1516
01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:56,160
Speaker 1: costed him a bunch of money and legal fees and

1517
01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:59,120
Speaker 1: then would have netted him very little other than maybe

1518
01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:05,519
Speaker 1: further exonerating him from this this moment that that forever

1519
01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:08,960
Speaker 1: changed the story around Mattariza. But to your point, well

1520
01:16:09,560 --> 01:16:14,719
Speaker 1: mainly to Brady Brady Hoake's point, longtime football coach, I've

1521
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:19,599
Speaker 1: never witnessed a punter single handedly takeover games like never,

1522
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:22,960
Speaker 1: never once in my entire playing career or my career

1523
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:26,000
Speaker 1: as a broadcaster and as the color analyst of San

1524
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:29,880
Speaker 1: Diego State football. I can tell you I can. I can.

1525
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,240
Speaker 1: I'll give you a list of the games. I'll go

1526
01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 1: back and rewatch them, and I will give you a

1527
01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:37,559
Speaker 1: list of the games where this this one player at

1528
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:41,880
Speaker 1: the punter position absolutely changed the fortunes in the fate

1529
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,880
Speaker 1: of a football team. He would pin the opponent deep

1530
01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:49,679
Speaker 1: multiple times a half, like to the point where they're

1531
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:52,599
Speaker 1: they're they're fighting out of their own end zone, out

1532
01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 1: of the shadow of their own goalpost every single drive.

1533
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:59,800
Speaker 3: I mean, he would take situations that seemed completely.

1534
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:04,200
Speaker 1: Desperate, letely bleak, where he's literally kicking punting the football

1535
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:07,400
Speaker 1: with his heels against his own end line and he's

1536
01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,040
Speaker 1: putting the football all the way back to the opponent's

1537
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:13,680
Speaker 1: twenty or inside the twenty. That happened multiple times. It

1538
01:17:13,720 --> 01:17:16,879
Speaker 1: was an unbelievable run of success. So if the Chiefs

1539
01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 1: end up getting that Matriza all of a sudden, they

1540
01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:23,760
Speaker 1: have a secret weapon. Oh yeah that nobody else in

1541
01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:27,000
Speaker 1: the league is aware of how detrimental it'll be to

1542
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:30,639
Speaker 1: their perceived success when facing the Chiefs. Because the game

1543
01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:34,000
Speaker 1: of football, it is about blocking, tackling, catching, throwing.

1544
01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:38,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, field position, but field position steven Yeah, after it's

1545
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,360
Speaker 6: a game of chess completely, and if you.

1546
01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:42,080
Speaker 1: Have the field position game one, you have everything.

1547
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:44,519
Speaker 2: He averaged over fifty one yards upon his last year

1548
01:17:44,520 --> 01:17:46,680
Speaker 2: at San Diego State. Think about that, over fifty one

1549
01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:48,920
Speaker 2: yards put All right, coming up on the other side,

1550
01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:52,439
Speaker 2: we'll get back to the NBA. Yeah, we still have

1551
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:56,200
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals going on, and one player in particular says,

1552
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 2: expect to see me in action. Who is that? We'll

1553
01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:04,680
Speaker 2: tell you. This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Hartman and

1554
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:09,000
Speaker 2: Rich Rmberger Here Fox Sports Sunday on this Fathersday. We

1555
01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:13,120
Speaker 2: are live from the ti Iraq dot Com studios. I

1556
01:18:13,160 --> 01:18:16,120
Speaker 2: don't know too many people going into these NBA Finals

1557
01:18:16,160 --> 01:18:18,240
Speaker 2: that would have said that the key player in this

1558
01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:20,800
Speaker 2: series is going to be Christavs.

1559
01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 4: Persingis right.

1560
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:27,760
Speaker 2: But the fact is, in the first two games, this

1561
01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:31,320
Speaker 2: is a pretty amazing stat. So in the first two games,

1562
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:35,840
Speaker 2: both Boston victories, he played forty four minutes, and in

1563
01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:38,920
Speaker 2: those forty four minutes, Boston was a plus twenty five.

1564
01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:42,360
Speaker 2: Right in the fifty two minutes he did not play.

1565
01:18:42,400 --> 01:18:46,800
Speaker 2: In those two games, it was even so when he

1566
01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,320
Speaker 2: was on the court, plus twenty five when he was

1567
01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:53,280
Speaker 2: not on the court, even And then we had Game three,

1568
01:18:53,360 --> 01:18:57,240
Speaker 2: which was pretty even game. I mean again, if Luca

1569
01:18:57,320 --> 01:19:01,120
Speaker 2: doesn't have some brain fart and found himself out of

1570
01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:03,759
Speaker 2: that game, who knows. And then we saw what happened

1571
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,599
Speaker 2: in game four far so now we go to game five.

1572
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,240
Speaker 2: I don't know this injury. They're just saying it's a

1573
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:12,879
Speaker 2: really rare injury. I can't even pronounce all the different

1574
01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:18,000
Speaker 2: names here. Something with his left leg, let's put it

1575
01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:18,599
Speaker 2: that way.

1576
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:23,680
Speaker 1: But he heirorn of retinaculum.

1577
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:31,400
Speaker 2: Retinaculum that allowed the dislocation of the posterior tibulous tennis

1578
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:37,439
Speaker 2: tobialis whatever. But he apparently was supposedly active for game four.

1579
01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:39,240
Speaker 2: Obviously he did him play in Game four, but he

1580
01:19:39,280 --> 01:19:42,320
Speaker 2: says he'll do whatever he can to play in game five.

1581
01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 2: But as we saw certainly in the first game, I mean,

1582
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:48,840
Speaker 2: his presence on that court changed the whole dynamic in

1583
01:19:48,880 --> 01:19:51,920
Speaker 2: a way that nobody was talking about because well, he

1584
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:53,240
Speaker 2: hadn't played in over a month.

1585
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:57,120
Speaker 1: Well, with Porzingis, when you look at the type of

1586
01:19:57,160 --> 01:20:02,160
Speaker 1: player he is when he is healthy and motivated, he's

1587
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:08,280
Speaker 1: one of those I guess you would say multiple threat players. Look,

1588
01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:12,439
Speaker 1: he's so long that defensively this doesn't sound like a lot,

1589
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,640
Speaker 1: but he's a tough guy to get around because he

1590
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:17,639
Speaker 1: just covers up so much surface area.

1591
01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:19,599
Speaker 3: Also, over the course of his.

1592
01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:22,400
Speaker 1: Career, he's gotten he's he's got to become a much

1593
01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:23,080
Speaker 1: better defender.

1594
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:26,599
Speaker 3: Kind of similar tracks. Not as offensively.

1595
01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:31,800
Speaker 1: Affront of as or or not as high of an

1596
01:20:31,880 --> 01:20:35,920
Speaker 1: ability on offense as Kevin Durant, but similar tracks defensively,

1597
01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant had to play his way into an NBA

1598
01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:41,679
Speaker 1: NBA body, and he had to play his way into

1599
01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 1: an NBA defender. And he's done that, and so it's Porzingis.

1600
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:47,360
Speaker 1: And then offensively he's brilliant at times.

1601
01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, so we're gonna we're gonna see one

1602
01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:54,160
Speaker 2: if he plays, if he doesn't play, at least based

1603
01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:56,439
Speaker 2: on what we've seen with him not on the court,

1604
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:59,679
Speaker 2: this is a pretty even serious yeah, and that could

1605
01:20:59,720 --> 01:21:01,920
Speaker 2: favor or the team that has less to lose, that

1606
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:03,840
Speaker 2: would be the Dallas Mavericks. All right, coming up by

1607

1617
01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:41,439
Speaker 2: in about twenty minutes. Our Fox Sports Radio MLB Insider

1618
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:46,120
Speaker 2: also talk about Edmonton. You know the NBA finals in

1619
01:21:46,200 --> 01:21:49,680
Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup Final were on par You know the

1620
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,920
Speaker 2: favorite team won the first three games and all of

1621
01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 2: a sudden game four blowouts. Yeah, to stay alive, I

1622
01:21:56,479 --> 01:22:00,280
Speaker 2: mean Edmonton just blowing out Florida eight to one. Stay

1623
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:03,280
Speaker 2: alive in the Stanley Cup Final. Do they have a

1624
01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:07,040
Speaker 2: chance of having a miracle run again? The difference in

1625
01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:11,719
Speaker 2: the NHL versus the NBA. In no playoff series ever

1626
01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:14,120
Speaker 2: has an NBA team been down three to ozh and

1627
01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,519
Speaker 2: won the series. But in the NHL, I believe it's

1628
01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:19,680
Speaker 2: happened at least four times in a playoff series. I

1629
01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:22,720
Speaker 2: remember the twenty fourteen LA Kings covered that one. They

1630
01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,519
Speaker 2: were down in the opening round three games to none

1631
01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:27,760
Speaker 2: of the San Jose Sharks came back to not only

1632
01:22:27,800 --> 01:22:30,759
Speaker 2: when that series they ended up winning the Stanley Cups.

1633
01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:34,120
Speaker 2: So we'll have John Paul Morosi joining us. No, only

1634
01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:38,519
Speaker 2: think about Father's Day, Rich, you know it's been now.

1635
01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:41,800
Speaker 2: It's hard to believe six years since my dad passed away.

1636
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:44,559
Speaker 2: And my dad had a long life. He almost made

1637
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:50,800
Speaker 2: it to ninety. Like most father's son relationships, there was complications.

1638
01:22:51,120 --> 01:22:53,680
Speaker 2: The one thing I never doubted though, is that he

1639
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 2: was always my fan of mine. You know, he rooted

1640
01:22:57,320 --> 01:22:59,720
Speaker 2: me on, and he was the one that insisted, much

1641
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:04,240
Speaker 2: to my mother's chagrin, to continue to pursue my obsession

1642
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:07,840
Speaker 2: about sports. My mom just kept thinking, when is he

1643
01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:10,439
Speaker 2: going to grow out of this? Like this is you know,

1644
01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:13,439
Speaker 2: I understand when you're seven and collecting baseball cards, but

1645
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 2: at some point you had to grow out of this.

1646
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:19,120
Speaker 2: She finally came around on that. But some interesting things

1647
01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:22,120
Speaker 2: have happened on Father's Day. One of my favorite Father's

1648
01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:26,280
Speaker 2: Day stories involving sports involved a Hall of Fame pitcher

1649
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 2: named Jim Bunning. He was a great pitcher in the

1650
01:23:29,160 --> 01:23:31,760
Speaker 2: fifties and the sixties. He actually later became both a

1651
01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:35,840
Speaker 2: congressman and a senator from the state of Kentucky. So

1652
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:39,040
Speaker 2: he had a long life. But he was the father

1653
01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:40,479
Speaker 2: of nine kids.

1654
01:23:41,160 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 1: Jeez, yeah.

1655
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:45,080
Speaker 2: He and his wife had five daughters and four sons.

1656
01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,680
Speaker 2: By the way, one way, they have a lot of grandchildren.

1657
01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:49,680
Speaker 2: They had thirty five grandchildren.

1658
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:52,360
Speaker 1: Oh my god, so do the mat.

1659
01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:59,160
Speaker 4: So they had nine children and thirty five grandchildren, Oh

1660
01:23:59,240 --> 01:23:59,960
Speaker 4: my god.

1661
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 2: And actually lived long enough to see fourteen great grandchildren,

1662
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:05,840
Speaker 2: but just nine.

1663
01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:08,920
Speaker 1: By the way, the Bunnings, they weren't bunning. They were

1664
01:24:08,960 --> 01:24:10,880
Speaker 1: hitting home runs exactly.

1665
01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:13,800
Speaker 2: I mean, you've got two boys, and I know you

1666
01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:17,160
Speaker 2: got your hands fell I got three, you know, at nine,

1667
01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:21,360
Speaker 2: nine and then thirty five grand I mean being tested

1668
01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:23,639
Speaker 2: like on the names. Like you look at our buddy

1669
01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:26,479
Speaker 2: Philip Rivers and they welcomed a tenth child.

1670
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:28,120
Speaker 4: I believe right, Yes.

1671
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:28,519
Speaker 1: That's correct.

1672
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:32,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so think about how many grandchildren they're looking

1673
01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:32,880
Speaker 2: at down the road.

1674
01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:34,280
Speaker 1: But anyway, forget about it.

1675
01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:37,120
Speaker 4: It was Father's Day nineteen sixty four.

1676
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:41,479
Speaker 2: Jim Bunny was then pitching with the Philadelphia Phillies, and

1677
01:24:42,760 --> 01:24:44,080
Speaker 2: he threw.

1678
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:46,960
Speaker 4: A perfect game that day.

1679
01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

1680
01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:51,400
Speaker 2: In fact, you talk about the Don Larson perfect game

1681
01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 2: in the fifty six World Series, but for a regular

1682
01:24:55,400 --> 01:25:01,960
Speaker 2: season game, it was the first perfect game over forty years.

1683
01:25:01,840 --> 01:25:05,960
Speaker 4: In Major League Baseball. I mean it just like never happened.

1684
01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 2: And he threw it on of all days, Father's Day

1685
01:25:11,439 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 2: when you're a father of nine.

1686
01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:15,960
Speaker 4: I mean that's sort of like destiny, right.

1687
01:25:16,120 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, It's just like certain certain moments and sports are

1688
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 1: like that.

1689
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:21,200
Speaker 3: Obviously.

1690
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:26,320
Speaker 1: There are so many stories like speaking fathers, the Brett

1691
01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:30,200
Speaker 1: Favre game after his father had passed away, decided to play,

1692
01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:33,479
Speaker 1: and you know, he smashed single game passing records for

1693
01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:36,519
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers and he led them to an

1694
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:41,840
Speaker 1: unlikely victory. Like those things in sports, they just it

1695
01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:46,400
Speaker 1: just definitely feels like sometimes there's something bigger at play

1696
01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:48,960
Speaker 1: and it's hard to describe. And whether you believe in

1697
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:52,920
Speaker 1: something bigger or not, it's you get goosebumps thinking about

1698
01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:56,640
Speaker 1: how it all ties together. But yeah, I mean, of

1699
01:25:56,680 --> 01:26:00,639
Speaker 1: all days for the budding household to celebrate a game,

1700
01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:04,400
Speaker 1: I mean that guy. Uh yeah, let's put it this way.

1701
01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:06,720
Speaker 1: He was throwing strikes no matter what.

1702
01:26:07,080 --> 01:26:10,639
Speaker 2: Yes, by the way, is Rivers, did you ever talk

1703
01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:13,679
Speaker 2: to Philip Rivers about why?

1704
01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:15,960
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1705
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:18,599
Speaker 1: They so. Him and his wife Tiff both grew up

1706
01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:24,640
Speaker 1: in uh in in in Alabama. Uh and they was

1707
01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:25,720
Speaker 1: small town.

1708
01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:28,000
Speaker 3: You know what I mean, like ye and and.

1709
01:26:27,800 --> 01:26:30,519
Speaker 2: Not every person from a small town in Alabama's got

1710
01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:31,040
Speaker 2: ten kids.

1711
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 3: No, no, no, they don't. They don't.

1712
01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:37,479
Speaker 1: But but like the they The reason why I bring

1713
01:26:37,520 --> 01:26:39,400
Speaker 1: this up is there's there was a lot of land

1714
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:42,840
Speaker 1: and he came from I think a relatively big family

1715
01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:45,800
Speaker 1: or she did, I forget which one, and uh, And

1716
01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:48,439
Speaker 1: the thought process was, at some point, we're going to

1717
01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,840
Speaker 1: move back home, and we're going to move back home

1718
01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:53,439
Speaker 1: with a whole bunch of kids, and we're going to

1719
01:26:53,520 --> 01:26:56,040
Speaker 1: have a big old house and we're going to fill

1720
01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:56,839
Speaker 1: it with children.

1721
01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:59,920
Speaker 3: And it was just always their plan, you know.

1722
01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:03,760
Speaker 1: And they and he loves like not only being a dad,

1723
01:27:03,800 --> 01:27:07,000
Speaker 1: but he also loves watching the older ones start to

1724
01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:09,880
Speaker 1: fill into the role of like looking after the younger

1725
01:27:09,920 --> 01:27:10,439
Speaker 1: ones too.

1726
01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 3: And so they got.

1727
01:27:12,160 --> 01:27:15,280
Speaker 1: On this this crazy ride and they still haven't gotten

1728
01:27:15,280 --> 01:27:17,680
Speaker 1: off of it. And the crazy thing about it is,

1729
01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:20,800
Speaker 1: I remember one time, phil I mean, because yet you

1730
01:27:20,840 --> 01:27:23,439
Speaker 1: wrap your head around this when he says it. But Philip,

1731
01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:26,960
Speaker 1: we were talking about how Annie and Tiffany they were

1732
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:29,679
Speaker 1: pregnant at the same time I was having my first kid,

1733
01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:31,920
Speaker 1: or Annie was having our first kid. She was I

1734
01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:35,200
Speaker 1: don't know at the time, during the fall, maybe four

1735
01:27:35,280 --> 01:27:38,720
Speaker 1: or five months pregnant, but she was showing, and we

1736
01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:41,200
Speaker 1: may have had something where recently we all saw each

1737
01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:41,799
Speaker 1: other together.

1738
01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:43,400
Speaker 3: The wives were out with us, and.

1739
01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:45,759
Speaker 1: He's like, gosh, He's like, don't they when they're pregnant,

1740
01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:48,800
Speaker 1: don't they just look so cute? Is this something about him?

1741
01:27:48,840 --> 01:27:51,040
Speaker 1: Like he's and I'm like, yeah, yeah. I was like,

1742
01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:54,920
Speaker 1: there's no question the pregnancy glow. It's not just a thing.

1743
01:27:54,920 --> 01:27:57,280
Speaker 1: They say, it's true. And then he goes, yeah, I

1744
01:27:57,280 --> 01:27:59,439
Speaker 1: was telling Tiffany, He's like, we got home from the thing,

1745
01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:02,360
Speaker 1: and I was saying, you know, God, God, Donna, Yeah, yeah,

01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:05,200
Speaker 1: if you know, you're just so beautiful, I mean as

1747
01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:07,920
Speaker 1: a pregnant woman or when you're not pregnant, just you're beautiful.

1748
01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:10,599
Speaker 1: And she goes, well, Philip, I really hope you think

1749
01:28:10,600 --> 01:28:13,920
Speaker 1: I'm beautiful and I'm pregnant because I've been pregnant more

1750
01:28:13,960 --> 01:28:17,400
Speaker 1: than I haven't been since you met me. So there's that.

01:28:18,280 --> 01:28:22,960
Speaker 2: Well, uh, they're their latest was a boy. So now

1752
01:28:22,960 --> 01:28:24,920
Speaker 2: he has seven girls and three.

1753
01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:27,760
Speaker 1: Boys starting to bounce out the skills. Maybe they try

1754
01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:28,679
Speaker 1: for a fourth boy.

1755
01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:30,679
Speaker 4: See, this was this the whole thing.

1756
01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:33,679
Speaker 2: We had the two boys, and then you know, Denise

1757
01:28:34,080 --> 01:28:36,800
Speaker 2: desperately wanted to die. I would have loved to have

1758
01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:38,719
Speaker 2: a daughter as well, but every said, you have two boys,

1759
01:28:38,760 --> 01:28:40,960
Speaker 2: you're not gonna have a girl. Sorry, I mean you

1760
01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:43,880
Speaker 2: got the you got the boy thing going here, and uh,

1761
01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:46,240
Speaker 2: you know, long story short, we used, with the help

1762
01:28:46,280 --> 01:28:49,200
Speaker 2: of a friend of ours, the Chinese calendar based on

1763
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:51,840
Speaker 2: the mother's birthday and the month of conception.

1764
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:54,960
Speaker 4: Maybe a better shot, right, and then and then it worked.

1765
01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:58,680
Speaker 2: And then as soon as my daughter was born, immediately

1766
01:28:59,200 --> 01:29:02,040
Speaker 2: Denise's say, well, we got to even it up now, right,

1767
01:29:02,200 --> 01:29:04,720
Speaker 2: And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

1768
01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:06,960
Speaker 2: no no, this is look two for one here. I'm

1769
01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:09,639
Speaker 2: out of the baby making business. Okay, I'm done with that.

1770
01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:11,479
Speaker 3: I've said it a couple of times the way, and

1771
01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:12,160
Speaker 3: he says it to me.

1772
01:29:12,240 --> 01:29:13,640
Speaker 1: I said it a couple of times, like, gosh, you

1773
01:29:13,680 --> 01:29:15,040
Speaker 1: know what, do you ever just look at the house

1774
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:17,120
Speaker 1: and think, maybe just one more maybe will try for

1775
01:29:17,160 --> 01:29:19,960
Speaker 1: the girl and she'll go shops closed.

1776
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:23,519
Speaker 4: I wait, well, now, Rich, I'm gonna do some math ras.

1777
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:27,519
Speaker 2: So when I went you're now thirty eight years old, yeah, yeah,

1778
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:29,200
Speaker 2: And I was forty two and a.

1779
01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 4: Half when Paris was born oh boy, yeah, so yeah.

1780
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:35,800
Speaker 2: And I remember when she was born thinking to myself, like,

1781
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:38,200
Speaker 2: I'm doing the math in my head, right, like I'm

1782
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:42,760
Speaker 2: gonna be like sixty when she graduates high school. And

1783
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,920
Speaker 2: so there I was at her high school graduation. I'm like, damn,

1784
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:51,679
Speaker 2: I'm sixty. Actually I'm almost sixty one. Yeah, It's like, man,

1785
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:52,600
Speaker 2: what happens.

1786
01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:56,840
Speaker 4: That I always go back and I've said this to you.

1787
01:29:56,840 --> 01:30:00,200
Speaker 2: You've heard this a million times, but all bears repeating

1788
01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:05,080
Speaker 2: of all people. Earl Hersheizer, that's right. Yeah, so Earl Hirsheiser,

1789
01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:07,720
Speaker 2: who's the exact same age as I am, same year,

1790
01:30:07,800 --> 01:30:10,200
Speaker 2: born the same year. And obviously I first got to

1791
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:11,720
Speaker 2: know him when he was pitching with the Dodgers. It

1792
01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:13,280
Speaker 2: was right at the end of his career's pitching with

1793
01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:16,479
Speaker 2: the Mets. I don't know how we got anybody out.

1794
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:19,360
Speaker 2: You talk about a guy that was literally thinking guys out,

1795
01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:24,040
Speaker 2: throwing nothing, nothing on his pitching. In fact, Mike Piazza

1796
01:30:24,200 --> 01:30:26,360
Speaker 2: was catching for the Mets of the time. I asked him,

1797
01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:27,720
Speaker 2: I said, how does he get anybody out?

1798
01:30:27,720 --> 01:30:28,000
Speaker 1: He goes?

1799
01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:31,719
Speaker 4: I have no idea. He goes, he goes, he goes.

1800
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:34,280
Speaker 2: There are actually times when I will say to the hitter,

1801
01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:37,680
Speaker 2: like how did you not hit that? Like if the

1802
01:30:37,720 --> 01:30:40,080
Speaker 2: ball was over the plate, it was gonna go like

1803
01:30:40,160 --> 01:30:43,599
Speaker 2: five hundred feet. But anyway, so we got into this.

1804
01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 2: I had the two boys. My daughter hadn't been born yet,

1805
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:47,960
Speaker 2: but I got these two little boys, and we got

1806
01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:50,439
Speaker 2: into the conversation. His kids are already a little bit older.

1807
01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:52,719
Speaker 2: But he said the line that's stuck with me forever.

1808
01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:56,719
Speaker 2: He said, when you have kids, the days are long,

1809
01:30:57,400 --> 01:31:01,240
Speaker 2: but the years are short. Yep, And you realize, like

1810
01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:03,479
Speaker 2: when you bring home that first child, like there's no

1811
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:07,160
Speaker 2: return but thing on this like that, like he's he

1812
01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:09,240
Speaker 2: or she's going to be there forever, like he is

1813
01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:11,879
Speaker 2: just and every day is a full from the opening

1814
01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:14,320
Speaker 2: bell to the closing bell, there is no letup.

1815
01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:18,400
Speaker 1: Well, I will will tell you my story with Ty,

1816
01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:22,000
Speaker 1: my oldest eight years old. Now, back in twenty fourteen,

1817
01:31:22,040 --> 01:31:24,920
Speaker 1: he was born, and he was born in June, so

1818
01:31:25,200 --> 01:31:30,519
Speaker 1: we're in the off season, and that December prior, so

1819
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:34,320
Speaker 1: it was December. I guess it was December. No, No,

1820
01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:38,040
Speaker 1: he was June of twenty fifteen. So that December of

1821
01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:42,160
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen I had back surgery. So I'm recovering from

1822
01:31:42,160 --> 01:31:45,280
Speaker 1: the back surgery. It ended my season in twenty fourteen.

1823
01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:48,720
Speaker 1: I'd been playing six years at that point, and I

1824
01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:52,719
Speaker 1: meet this kid six months later, and all of a sudden,

1825
01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:57,040
Speaker 1: everything falls away. It's almost like you have that moment

1826
01:31:57,040 --> 01:31:59,519
Speaker 1: where you're like, oh, boy, like this is it.

1827
01:31:59,600 --> 01:32:01,639
Speaker 3: This is I mean, I said it for years.

1828
01:32:01,680 --> 01:32:03,120
Speaker 1: All I want to be is a good dad, And

1829
01:32:03,160 --> 01:32:05,640
Speaker 1: now here's your opportunity to be a good dad. And

1830
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:07,400
Speaker 1: you don't even know the first thing about being a

1831
01:32:07,400 --> 01:32:09,840
Speaker 1: father because nobody can teach you. You have to sort

1832
01:32:09,880 --> 01:32:11,479
Speaker 1: of just live it and do it and try to

1833
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:13,800
Speaker 1: figure it out on the run. And so my wife,

1834
01:32:13,880 --> 01:32:16,559
Speaker 1: you know, she's going through all the things after you deliver.

1835
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:19,920
Speaker 1: And now I'm a dad and we're going through this offseason.

1836
01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:22,040
Speaker 1: I'm staying in shape, I'm training, and I'm doing the

1837
01:32:22,040 --> 01:32:25,720
Speaker 1: whole thing. But I'm an unsigned free agent. I got

1838
01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:28,160
Speaker 1: six years under my belt, so that's I'm getting long

1839
01:32:28,200 --> 01:32:30,759
Speaker 1: in the tooth. Plus I have a huge injury history.

1840
01:32:31,080 --> 01:32:33,760
Speaker 1: I've finished my career more times on the ir than

1841
01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:37,400
Speaker 1: i've finished healthy in terms of seasons I played. So

1842
01:32:37,479 --> 01:32:39,960
Speaker 1: nobody wants me. Nobody wants me. I get a call

1843
01:32:40,000 --> 01:32:43,160
Speaker 1: from the Bills. Rex Ryan was a head coach at

1844
01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:46,920
Speaker 1: the time. I fly in there the practice I show

1845
01:32:46,960 --> 01:32:49,519
Speaker 1: up for because they need an offensive lineman. But all

1846
01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:52,479
Speaker 1: of a sudden, four defensive backs go down with injury

1847
01:32:52,600 --> 01:32:54,880
Speaker 1: that practice. They don't have room on the roster to

1848
01:32:54,920 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 1: sign an offensive lineman. They need to refill at defensive back.

1849
01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:01,439
Speaker 1: And it's the first time I remember, all of a

1850
01:33:01,439 --> 01:33:04,680
Speaker 1: sudden something being more important to me than football. They

1851
01:33:04,720 --> 01:33:07,320
Speaker 1: sent me home and I couldn't wait to get back

1852
01:33:07,320 --> 01:33:11,720
Speaker 1: home to my son. And that was crazy, because I'm

1853
01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:13,680
Speaker 1: telling you, it was like I fell in love with

1854
01:33:13,720 --> 01:33:17,599
Speaker 1: this sport, but then I met something that was more

1855
01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:19,519
Speaker 1: important than any of that. I mean, I'm talking like

1856
01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:22,320
Speaker 1: I've had this conversation with my wife, Like you know,

1857
01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:24,879
Speaker 1: before I met my wife, I fell in love with football,

1858
01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,120
Speaker 1: and I mean like it was it was, I mean,

1859
01:33:28,200 --> 01:33:31,240
Speaker 1: something that made everything make sense in my life. It

1860
01:33:31,360 --> 01:33:32,519
Speaker 1: saved me in a lot of ways.

1861
01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:34,080
Speaker 3: So like football was very important to me.

1862
01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:37,160
Speaker 1: So I'm thinking to myself, like gosh, like I didn't

1863
01:33:37,200 --> 01:33:39,280
Speaker 1: even really want us. I'm not bummed out that they

1864
01:33:39,320 --> 01:33:41,439
Speaker 1: didn't sign me, Like I want to get back home

1865
01:33:41,479 --> 01:33:43,680
Speaker 1: to my kid. And then I get another phone call

1866
01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:46,320
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers need a center. Somebody got hurt, so

1867
01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:49,320
Speaker 1: they fly out me and actually another guy who I know,

1868
01:33:49,800 --> 01:33:53,720
Speaker 1: Doug Legursky, was a backup center with the Steelers in

1869
01:33:53,760 --> 01:33:54,160
Speaker 1: the past.

1870
01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:56,120
Speaker 3: It's a two man workout for the position.

1871
01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:58,800
Speaker 1: They're gonna sign one of us, stand up signing Doug Legurski,

1872
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:01,920
Speaker 1: and I was like, I was like, thank god, you know,

1873
01:34:02,040 --> 01:34:04,120
Speaker 1: because I just want to get back home to my kid.

1874
01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:06,800
Speaker 1: And so I fly back home to San Diego and

1875
01:34:06,840 --> 01:34:09,120
Speaker 1: she goes, oh, how is Doug. I'm like, gull, He's good.

1876
01:34:09,160 --> 01:34:10,800
Speaker 1: You know, we know his wife too, and I stayed

1877
01:34:10,800 --> 01:34:13,320
Speaker 1: the night at the Lagurski's house. I mean, it was

1878
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:16,000
Speaker 1: It was funny that it was a competition because you know,

1879
01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:18,080
Speaker 1: I still give him a hug on the way leaving it.

1880
01:34:18,320 --> 01:34:20,400
Speaker 1: So anyways, I fly back to San Diego and I'm

1881
01:34:20,439 --> 01:34:23,760
Speaker 1: loving life as a dad. The football season starts. I'm

1882
01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:26,160
Speaker 1: praying that my phone doesn't ring because it's gonna take

1883
01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:28,920
Speaker 1: me away from all this. And finally my phone does

1884
01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:32,479
Speaker 1: ring and it's Detroit calling. They're having an zero to

1885
01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:38,600
Speaker 1: eight season in twenty fifteen. They're terrible, and so I'm like,

1886
01:34:38,800 --> 01:34:42,200
Speaker 1: oh my god, Detroit's gonna sign me, like because they

1887
01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:44,639
Speaker 1: need something to help their season out. So I figured

1888
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:47,320
Speaker 1: there's no doubt if they're calling me, it's to sign me.

1889
01:34:47,840 --> 01:34:50,240
Speaker 1: So I said to Anna, I'm like, listen, I think

1890
01:34:50,320 --> 01:34:53,960
Speaker 1: you guys ought to stay here. I'll just finish out

1891
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:56,559
Speaker 1: this season in Detroit. Now, just come straight home and

1892
01:34:56,640 --> 01:34:59,160
Speaker 1: you know, we'll stay in San diego'll we'll re sign

1893
01:34:59,200 --> 01:35:01,040
Speaker 1: our lease whatever it is that we're.

1894
01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:03,439
Speaker 3: So I leave for this this flight.

1895
01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:06,320
Speaker 1: To Detroit with a pit in my stomach, and all

1896
01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:09,280
Speaker 1: of a sudden, I realize when I get there, they

1897
01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:11,800
Speaker 1: have like eight or nine guys who they're trying out

1898
01:35:11,840 --> 01:35:14,639
Speaker 1: for a variety of different positions. You know, they got

1899
01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:19,000
Speaker 1: defensive lineman, linebackers, tight ends. I'm one of two offensive linemen.

1900
01:35:19,080 --> 01:35:21,879
Speaker 1: They got two quarterbacks that they're trying out. I realized

1901
01:35:21,880 --> 01:35:23,639
Speaker 1: while I was there. I'm like, oh, they're not signing

1902
01:35:23,720 --> 01:35:26,760
Speaker 1: any of us. They're just doing a cattle call to

1903
01:35:26,960 --> 01:35:29,960
Speaker 1: scare this roster into playing better. So we flew in

1904
01:35:30,040 --> 01:35:32,040
Speaker 1: on a Tuesday, and you know, there were some of

1905
01:35:32,080 --> 01:35:35,320
Speaker 1: the current Detroit Lion players milling about. You know, they're

1906
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:38,519
Speaker 1: going through their workout during a day off, and they're

1907
01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:41,160
Speaker 1: they're eyeing us up like, oh gosh, like these guys

1908
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:42,320
Speaker 1: are here to take our jobs.

1909
01:35:42,560 --> 01:35:44,000
Speaker 3: Not a single one of us got.

1910
01:35:43,840 --> 01:35:48,160
Speaker 1: Signed, and I breathed this sigh of relief over a

1911
01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:51,240
Speaker 1: bourbon and a steak at the hotel they were putting

1912
01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:54,599
Speaker 1: us up at in Detroit. And I've had all these

1913
01:35:54,640 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 1: injuries and my knees are shot, my back is just

1914
01:35:57,439 --> 01:35:59,960
Speaker 1: barely hanging on after the surgery. I'm just gonna try

1915
01:36:00,160 --> 01:36:02,439
Speaker 1: to force my way through this season to get one

1916
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:06,320
Speaker 1: more year on my pension. And I remember making the

1917
01:36:06,400 --> 01:36:09,160
Speaker 1: decision right there. You know what I want to do.

1918
01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:11,640
Speaker 1: I want to be a dad. I want to be

1919
01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:14,040
Speaker 1: a healthy father. I want to be able to play

1920
01:36:14,120 --> 01:36:16,800
Speaker 1: driveway basketball with my kid. I want to be able

1921
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:19,080
Speaker 1: to run around in the backyard or chase him around

1922
01:36:19,120 --> 01:36:21,200
Speaker 1: on the beach. I don't want to be that guy

1923
01:36:21,280 --> 01:36:24,320
Speaker 1: who's a limping around everywhere. And so it was that

1924
01:36:24,479 --> 01:36:27,160
Speaker 1: very night I called up my wife. I said, she

1925
01:36:27,240 --> 01:36:30,000
Speaker 1: goes how to go? I said, they're not going to

1926
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:32,280
Speaker 1: sign me. I said, I describe the workout to her,

1927
01:36:32,320 --> 01:36:33,960
Speaker 1: and I was like, I think they were just putting

1928
01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:36,040
Speaker 1: on a show. And I told her, you.

1929
01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:37,320
Speaker 3: Know, listen, I'm done.

1930
01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:40,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this anymore, and she goes,

1931
01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:44,440
Speaker 1: I know, and that was the That was the decision.

1932
01:36:44,840 --> 01:36:47,639
Speaker 1: I went home and I started my life as a father,

1933
01:36:48,280 --> 01:36:52,839
Speaker 1: and eight years later, with two boys, I couldn't be happier.

1934
01:36:53,400 --> 01:36:55,479
Speaker 1: And so I know there's a lot of dads out

1935
01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:58,559
Speaker 1: there who have their fatherhood story and that's mine. And

1936
01:36:58,600 --> 01:37:01,559
Speaker 1: so happy Father's Day to everybody out there, because it

1937
01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 1: is the best, hardest, most completely life changing job you'll

1938
01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:08,960
Speaker 1: ever enjoy. I know.

1939
01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:11,080
Speaker 2: She also asked you, like, well, what do you want

1940
01:37:11,120 --> 01:37:13,840
Speaker 2: to do now? Like, look, it's been my lifelong dream

1941
01:37:13,920 --> 01:37:15,240
Speaker 2: to work with Steve Hartman.

1942
01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:15,599

01:38:04,560 --> 01:38:05,960
Speaker 2: great John Paul Morosi.

Speaker 4: So, JP, how are you and join your Father's day?

1959
01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:12,400
Speaker 14: Well, first, happy Father's Day to both of you. We

1960
01:38:12,479 --> 01:38:15,240
Speaker 14: are having a great Father's Day here in the great

1961
01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,679
Speaker 14: state of Michigan. We're actually up north as a family.

1962
01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:20,759
Speaker 14: I'm looking out at beautiful Lake Michigan as we speak,

1963
01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:23,960
Speaker 14: So could not ask for a better place or better

1964
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,000
Speaker 14: people to celebrate with. So thank you for the wishes.

1965
01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:29,400
Speaker 14: I wish all the same to you and all the

1966
01:38:29,479 --> 01:38:31,559
Speaker 14: dads out there, all the families out there as well.

1967
01:38:31,600 --> 01:38:33,720
Speaker 2: All right, let me jump in as I always do.

1968
01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:37,280
Speaker 2: Rich you know this with my NHL talk. So it's

1969
01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:40,799
Speaker 2: amazing the parallels between the NBA Finals and the Stanley

1970
01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:43,840
Speaker 2: Cup Final in the sense that you know, one team's

1971
01:38:43,880 --> 01:38:47,960
Speaker 2: down three to zero and then an absolute blowout in

1972
01:38:48,120 --> 01:38:51,240
Speaker 2: game four. I have made the accusation because I know

1973
01:38:51,280 --> 01:38:54,240
Speaker 2: it's true that the Celtics mailed this one in so

1974
01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:58,000
Speaker 2: they can, you know, win the championship at home. How

1975
01:38:58,040 --> 01:39:01,479
Speaker 2: exactly you explain the Panthers going belly up eight to

1976
01:39:01,640 --> 01:39:04,200
Speaker 2: one in Game four against Edmonton.

1977
01:39:05,400 --> 01:39:08,920
Speaker 14: Edmonton was a more desperate team, and they've always had

1978
01:39:08,960 --> 01:39:11,280
Speaker 14: plenty of talent. They didn't really show up in terms

1979
01:39:11,320 --> 01:39:13,000
Speaker 14: of the score sheet in the first three games of

1980
01:39:13,000 --> 01:39:17,000
Speaker 14: this series. That's what I saw in that game last night,

1981
01:39:17,080 --> 01:39:21,160
Speaker 14: just at the ability now for Edmonton to regroup. They

1982
01:39:21,200 --> 01:39:23,960
Speaker 14: had to be the more desperate team. They were at home.

1983
01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:27,040
Speaker 14: They did not want to have the Cup awarded in

1984
01:39:27,120 --> 01:39:30,400
Speaker 14: their building to their opponents, the Florida Panthers, and so

1985
01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:33,479
Speaker 14: I think we just saw a much more determined effort

1986
01:39:33,479 --> 01:39:37,040
Speaker 14: for Edmonton, and they've always had plenty of skill. Now

1987
01:39:37,120 --> 01:39:41,160
Speaker 14: the question comes, Okay, it's three to one. Game five

1988
01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:46,080
Speaker 14: is in Florida. If the Oilers win this game, then

1989
01:39:46,080 --> 01:39:48,320
Speaker 14: we've got a series. Then it's three to two going

1990
01:39:48,360 --> 01:39:51,120
Speaker 14: back to Edmonton, and it's an entirely different conversation. But

1991
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:53,559
Speaker 14: for right now, for right now, I think it is

1992
01:39:53,600 --> 01:39:56,320
Speaker 14: all about this Game five coming up. You know Florida

1993
01:39:56,400 --> 01:39:58,880
Speaker 14: is going to be more dialed in. But the one

1994
01:39:58,920 --> 01:40:04,240
Speaker 14: thing about is it so much predicated on goaltending and

1995
01:40:04,360 --> 01:40:07,840
Speaker 14: when you give up that many goals. But Brovsky has

1996
01:40:08,120 --> 01:40:10,240
Speaker 14: not been knocked off as pedestal like that in a

1997
01:40:10,280 --> 01:40:14,360
Speaker 14: long time, and so we don't know in general terms.

1998
01:40:14,360 --> 01:40:17,679
Speaker 14: In general terms, I would say that there's a better

1999
01:40:17,800 --> 01:40:21,760
Speaker 14: chance of a dramatic series or reversal in hockey than

2000
01:40:21,800 --> 01:40:24,680
Speaker 14: there is in basketball right now, just based on what

2001
01:40:24,720 --> 01:40:26,960
Speaker 14: we've seen in the past, and there have been series,

2002
01:40:26,960 --> 01:40:29,280
Speaker 14: even those in recent membering in the playoffs that go

2003
01:40:29,400 --> 01:40:31,960
Speaker 14: from three to nothing to four to three the other way.

2004
01:40:32,120 --> 01:40:34,479
Speaker 14: In ice hockey, it happens. It doesn't happen very often,

2005
01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:37,040
Speaker 14: but it does happen. So I do think the Game five,

2006
01:40:37,080 --> 01:40:40,160
Speaker 14: for all those reasons, will be very, very interesting. The

2007
01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:43,559
Speaker 14: pressure is going to be on Florida, and Florida's gonna

2008
01:40:43,560 --> 01:40:47,080
Speaker 14: have to find a way to take that pressure and

2009
01:40:47,200 --> 01:40:50,800
Speaker 14: create some urgency of their own, because Edmonton's gonna basically say, hey,

2010
01:40:51,160 --> 01:40:53,320
Speaker 14: keep the foot down on the accelerator just like we

2011
01:40:53,360 --> 01:40:55,720
Speaker 14: had in Game four and have that same effort on

2012
01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:58,720
Speaker 14: the road in Game five. We will see what unfolds

2013
01:40:58,760 --> 01:41:00,400
Speaker 14: on Tuesday night in South Florida.

2014
01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:04,360
Speaker 1: So we have the final game of the three gamer

2015
01:41:04,640 --> 01:41:09,200
Speaker 1: against Boston for the Yankees. Now, obviously a long time

2016
01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:13,040
Speaker 1: rivalry between these two Al East teams, This is oddly

2017
01:41:13,080 --> 01:41:15,280
Speaker 1: the first time they face each other this season, so

2018
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:16,280
Speaker 1: many more to come.

2019
01:41:17,240 --> 01:41:19,680
Speaker 3: Just a quick question on the health of that rivalry.

2020
01:41:20,560 --> 01:41:25,160
Speaker 1: Do you feel like it's still the biggest rivalry in

2021
01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:28,840
Speaker 1: baseball or has it been usurped in some ways by

2022
01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:32,559
Speaker 1: some of the other regional rivalries that have garnered more

2023
01:41:32,640 --> 01:41:34,120
Speaker 1: national interests recently.

2024
01:41:35,240 --> 01:41:38,200
Speaker 14: That's a great question. I first of all, I do

2025
01:41:38,280 --> 01:41:41,720
Speaker 14: not think that it's as intense as it used to be.

2026
01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:46,760
Speaker 14: I graduated from college in Boston twenty years ago, and

2027
01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:50,160
Speaker 14: it felt like every time those two teams played, it

2028
01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:54,000
Speaker 14: was Michigan Ohio State football eighteen times a year, plus

2029
01:41:54,040 --> 01:41:54,599
Speaker 14: the playoffs.

2030
01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:54,920
Speaker 1: Yep.

2031
01:41:55,000 --> 01:41:57,680
Speaker 14: And when they met in back to back alcs is,

2032
01:41:57,800 --> 01:42:01,000
Speaker 14: it was eighteen regular season games plus seven in the

2033
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:04,519
Speaker 14: playoffs twenty five and twenty five. And I believe I'd

2034
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:06,160
Speaker 14: have to go back and look at the exact numbers.

2035
01:42:06,439 --> 01:42:08,960
Speaker 14: I think that at the end that of those two years,

2036
01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:12,240
Speaker 14: three to four, both of which went to seven games

2037
01:42:12,240 --> 01:42:14,680
Speaker 14: in the LCS. Of course, New York won and O

2038
01:42:14,800 --> 01:42:17,720
Speaker 14: three the Red Sox historically win and four. I think

2039
01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:21,519
Speaker 14: at the end of those matchups it was basically fifty

2040
01:42:21,560 --> 01:42:25,160
Speaker 14: to fifty on the wins like it was evenly divided,

2041
01:42:25,200 --> 01:42:27,200
Speaker 14: as close as you're ever going to find it.

2042
01:42:27,200 --> 01:42:28,559
Speaker 1: It just meant so much.

2043
01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:32,800
Speaker 14: It meant so much because losing to the Yankees was

2044
01:42:32,960 --> 01:42:37,200
Speaker 14: such a central part of the New England identity for generations.

2045
01:42:37,560 --> 01:42:40,000
Speaker 14: And now it's just not They've had a lot of

2046
01:42:40,040 --> 01:42:43,240
Speaker 14: success and it's no longer this boogeyman that they were

2047
01:42:43,280 --> 01:42:45,479
Speaker 14: so afraid of, or where they felt like there was

2048
01:42:45,520 --> 01:42:48,800
Speaker 14: this New England fatalism always lurking on the other side

2049
01:42:48,800 --> 01:42:52,080
Speaker 14: of every pitch. It's different now that they've won their championships,

2050
01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:55,360
Speaker 14: fundamentally different mindset. There's a generation of kids growing up

2051
01:42:55,360 --> 01:42:58,960
Speaker 14: there who have only known winning. It's excusing to say

2052
01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:02,320
Speaker 14: because it was not that just twenty years ago. So

2053
01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:05,800
Speaker 14: I do think it's different, and I think, honestly, Rich

2054
01:43:06,120 --> 01:43:08,240
Speaker 14: it's a good question. I think we're moving into more

2055
01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:10,240
Speaker 14: of a time and I think it's healthy by the way,

2056
01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:16,520
Speaker 14: to where we are not necessarily bound by a specific

2057
01:43:16,640 --> 01:43:20,919
Speaker 14: geographic rivalry or even a division rivalry or a league rivalry.

2058
01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:24,760
Speaker 14: The biggest regular season series to date this year was

2059
01:43:24,840 --> 01:43:28,200
Speaker 14: interleague Yankees Dodgers, and and so I think that we're

2060
01:43:28,240 --> 01:43:31,400
Speaker 14: talking about in that case, what made it a rivalry. Well,

2061
01:43:31,439 --> 01:43:34,439
Speaker 14: it wasn't decades, And certainly it goes back to New

2062
01:43:34,520 --> 01:43:37,960
Speaker 14: York and Brooklyn and they played series together, even some

2063
01:43:38,200 --> 01:43:41,240
Speaker 14: La La and Yankees world series back, you know, going

2064
01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:46,759
Speaker 14: back forty years. But it's it's more the constellation of stars.

2065
01:43:47,000 --> 01:43:49,960
Speaker 14: I think that gets back to whoever thought if you'd

2066
01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:51,840
Speaker 14: said to somebody twenty five years ago that for a

2067
01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:55,080
Speaker 14: period of time that the NBA focus would beyond teams

2068
01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:57,559
Speaker 14: from Golden State and Oklahoma City, it would have said

2069
01:43:57,560 --> 01:44:01,599
Speaker 14: what I think that For me, I'm okay with it

2070
01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:04,799
Speaker 14: being with it not being all about the Red Sox Yankees.

2071
01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:08,200
Speaker 14: I think that the Phillies and Braves, that's a great rivalry.

2072
01:44:08,920 --> 01:44:11,519
Speaker 14: The Yankees and Orioles right now are a great rivalry.

2073
01:44:11,640 --> 01:44:14,920
Speaker 14: The Raives honestly for a period of time. They seem

2074
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:19,719
Speaker 14: to really have some strong antipathy when they played Boston

2075
01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:21,639
Speaker 14: and New York at different times in the last ten years.

2076
01:44:21,680 --> 01:44:24,479
Speaker 14: So it's the center of gravity is no longer Red

2077
01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:27,200
Speaker 14: Sox Yankees. But I think that's actually a good thing.

2078
01:44:27,560 --> 01:44:29,720
Speaker 14: And so I make this statement to all the other

2079
01:44:29,760 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 14: teams and fan bases, Hey, give us a good robbery,

2080
01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:35,040
Speaker 14: we'll talk about it. Get your team in the conversations

2081
01:44:35,040 --> 01:44:37,920
Speaker 14: where you're playing big time playoff games. Those Phillies Braves

2082
01:44:37,960 --> 01:44:40,120
Speaker 14: series in the playoffs are a lot of fun, and

2083
01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:43,000
Speaker 14: so I think those types of matchups to me right

2084
01:44:43,040 --> 01:44:45,760
Speaker 14: now are more President President in my mind right now,

2085
01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:47,360
Speaker 14: honestly than Red Sock Yankees.

2086
01:44:47,479 --> 01:44:50,360
Speaker 2: All Right, you have to explain to me what happened

2087
01:44:50,400 --> 01:44:53,800
Speaker 2: to Jose Abraill. This guy was the model of consistency

2088
01:44:53,880 --> 01:44:56,240
Speaker 2: for nine years with the White Sox. A year ago,

2089
01:44:56,320 --> 01:44:59,519
Speaker 2: he goes to the Astros, didn't have a great regular season,

2090
01:44:59,560 --> 01:45:01,960
Speaker 2: but hit the extremely well in the postseason.

2091
01:45:02,360 --> 01:45:04,360
Speaker 4: So you're like, all right, he's going to get back

2092
01:45:04,360 --> 01:45:04,960
Speaker 4: on track.

2093
01:45:05,240 --> 01:45:09,479
Speaker 2: Thirty five games, one twenty four batting average, three sixty

2094
01:45:09,560 --> 01:45:10,520
Speaker 2: one ops.

2095
01:45:10,920 --> 01:45:14,320
Speaker 4: They flat out release them and eat contract.

2096
01:45:14,360 --> 01:45:17,120
Speaker 2: I mean, we've talked about the Steve Blast syndrome for

2097
01:45:17,200 --> 01:45:21,000
Speaker 2: pictures of pitchers that have completely suddenly fallen off the map.

2098
01:45:21,600 --> 01:45:24,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've ever seen this dramatic of

2099
01:45:24,360 --> 01:45:27,719
Speaker 2: a fall for an elite hitter in a single season

2100
01:45:28,120 --> 01:45:29,639
Speaker 2: as we saw with Jose Abrey.

2101
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:30,439
Speaker 4: What happened?

2102
01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:33,799
Speaker 14: It's a great question. I think that there is certainly

2103
01:45:35,320 --> 01:45:37,760
Speaker 14: the game catching up with him a little bit at

2104
01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:39,960
Speaker 14: thirty seven years of age. I'll be clear, not every

2105
01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:42,920
Speaker 14: thirty seven year old struggles like this. Clearly there are

2106
01:45:43,120 --> 01:45:45,599
Speaker 14: very productive thirty seven, thirty eight, thirty nine year old

2107
01:45:45,600 --> 01:45:48,200
Speaker 14: players in MLB, and we've seen it in recent years,

2108
01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:52,240
Speaker 14: look at David Ortiz among others. But this was as

2109
01:45:52,280 --> 01:45:55,599
Speaker 14: precipitous of a fall as I can ever recall seeing

2110
01:45:55,680 --> 01:45:59,880
Speaker 14: from a multiple time All Star, former MVP. I believe

2111
01:46:00,120 --> 01:46:04,040
Speaker 14: there was both a physical and mental component to this,

2112
01:46:04,479 --> 01:46:07,240
Speaker 14: as most slumps are. I think when you're talking about

2113
01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:11,679
Speaker 14: elite athletes, where he just simply lost his ZWN, lost

2114
01:46:11,680 --> 01:46:14,760
Speaker 14: his ability to execute. And I think it's going to

2115
01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:17,000
Speaker 14: be up to him if he wants to give this

2116
01:46:17,080 --> 01:46:19,080
Speaker 14: another go. Does he try to sign somewhere else where

2117
01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:22,160
Speaker 14: he's comfortable with a hitting coach or a guru of

2118
01:46:22,200 --> 01:46:25,320
Speaker 14: sorts that he wants to connect with, Because to your point,

2119
01:46:25,840 --> 01:46:29,200
Speaker 14: he was still a decent hitter in the major leagues

2120
01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:31,479
Speaker 14: last year, and sometimes it happens this quickly.

2121
01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:33,360
Speaker 1: It's rare that it would.

2122
01:46:33,960 --> 01:46:36,519
Speaker 14: But he clearly was not able to make adjustment. And

2123
01:46:36,560 --> 01:46:38,960
Speaker 14: I give credit to the Astros for two reasons. Number One,

2124
01:46:39,720 --> 01:46:42,000
Speaker 14: they at one point in time option him down to

2125
01:46:42,040 --> 01:46:44,280
Speaker 14: the lowest levels of the minor leagues. Just get him

2126
01:46:44,840 --> 01:46:47,320
Speaker 14: back and get him some swings and try to really

2127
01:46:47,360 --> 01:46:50,200
Speaker 14: deconstruct a swing and build it back. So they tried,

2128
01:46:50,600 --> 01:46:52,719
Speaker 14: and then once it became clear that he wasn't able

2129
01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:54,240
Speaker 14: to help them, they.

2130
01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:54,639
Speaker 1: Made a move.

2131
01:46:55,080 --> 01:46:57,960
Speaker 14: And when you're a major League baseball team, I don't

2132
01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:00,639
Speaker 14: care if if and I don't think the two teams

2133
01:47:00,680 --> 01:47:03,519
Speaker 14: are here with these players yet, but I don't care

2134
01:47:03,560 --> 01:47:05,599
Speaker 14: if it's George Springer with the Blue Jays, if it's

2135
01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:09,440
Speaker 14: Hobby Bias with the Tigers. Once you sign the contract,

2136
01:47:09,880 --> 01:47:12,680
Speaker 14: the money is sunk. And at some point, if you're

2137
01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:16,280
Speaker 14: competing for something, you need to put your best team.

2138
01:47:16,120 --> 01:47:16,679
Speaker 1: On the field.

2139
01:47:17,000 --> 01:47:21,080
Speaker 14: And I'll never forget Jim Leelm. You would always say this,

2140
01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:24,000
Speaker 14: The players are smart. And if I put a roster

2141
01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:26,320
Speaker 14: out there that's not the best twenty five in those days,

2142
01:47:26,360 --> 01:47:28,599
Speaker 14: now it's twenty six. If I put a roster out

2143
01:47:28,600 --> 01:47:31,599
Speaker 14: there that's not my best, those guys will know it,

2144
01:47:32,000 --> 01:47:35,719
Speaker 14: and it hurts my credibility and it hurts my ability

2145
01:47:35,760 --> 01:47:38,880
Speaker 14: to lead. I've never forgotten that. And so yes, do

2146
01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:41,719
Speaker 14: you give guys who have big contracts a little more leeway?

2147
01:47:41,760 --> 01:47:43,680
Speaker 14: Of course you do. That's just the reality of the

2148
01:47:43,760 --> 01:47:47,040
Speaker 14: human experience in business. But there does come a point

2149
01:47:47,120 --> 01:47:49,880
Speaker 14: where if someone else is out performing him and you're

2150
01:47:49,920 --> 01:47:53,760
Speaker 14: blocking him from playing time because of a contract, that

2151
01:47:53,800 --> 01:47:57,040
Speaker 14: doesn't work. And I think that we're we're seeing the

2152
01:47:57,080 --> 01:47:59,479
Speaker 14: Astros make the right decision, and I just hope that

2153
01:47:59,560 --> 01:48:01,679
Speaker 14: Jose he finds his way back to the big leagues

2154
01:48:01,680 --> 01:48:04,080
Speaker 14: because he's been a very respected player for a long

2155
01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:04,720
Speaker 14: period of time.

2156
01:48:04,880 --> 01:48:09,519
Speaker 2: Well, JP, wishing you a very happy remainder to your

2157
01:48:09,560 --> 01:48:13,400
Speaker 2: Father's Day today. We always appreciate your time. Enjoy the

2158
01:48:13,439 --> 01:48:16,439
Speaker 2: celebration with your family. I know your kids have gone

2159
01:48:16,520 --> 01:48:19,559
Speaker 2: way beyond our kids in terms of recognizing the job

2160
01:48:19,640 --> 01:48:23,760
Speaker 2: you've done. I'm just kidding. Our kids have done a

2161
01:48:23,760 --> 01:48:27,040
Speaker 2: great job today. We've been very fortunate ourselves. But enjoy

2162
01:48:27,080 --> 01:48:28,840
Speaker 2: the rest of your Father's Day, JP.

2163
01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:31,639
Speaker 14: I appreciate it, guys. It's the greatest blessing in life

2164
01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:33,720
Speaker 14: to be a dad. I appreciate it. Same to it

2165
01:48:33,800 --> 01:48:37,320
Speaker 14: to both of you. And yes, I appreciate that our

2166
01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:40,240
Speaker 14: families do a great job of reminding us of what's

2167
01:48:40,320 --> 01:48:42,919
Speaker 14: really important life. Yes, sports are great, we love sports,

2168
01:48:43,080 --> 01:48:45,559
Speaker 14: but family's more important everybody, So we're all hopefully we

2169
01:48:45,560 --> 01:48:46,639
Speaker 14: can all enjoy that here today.

2170
01:48:46,680 --> 01:48:49,160
Speaker 2: We'll talk to you next week. Thanks JP. All about

2171
01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:52,240
Speaker 2: John Paul Morosi. All right, let's find out what is

2172
01:48:52,720 --> 01:48:56,679
Speaker 2: trending right now on this Father's Day. And I'm watching

2173
01:48:56,680 --> 01:49:00,000
Speaker 2: this US Open and it's getting really interesting.

2174
01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:01,040
Speaker 10: It is.

2175
01:49:01,120 --> 01:49:02,800
Speaker 11: We now have a two way tie at the top

2176
01:49:02,840 --> 01:49:06,560
Speaker 11: of the leader board between Bryson Deshambo and Rory McElroy,

2177
01:49:06,800 --> 01:49:09,559
Speaker 11: both six hunder part overall. Rory is two hunderd through

2178
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:11,840
Speaker 11: ten holes for the day while Deshambo is one over

2179
01:49:11,920 --> 01:49:14,599
Speaker 11: through nine holes. And guess what Patrick can'tley right now

2180
01:49:14,680 --> 01:49:18,640
Speaker 11: is just one shot back. So very interesting on this

2181
01:49:18,840 --> 01:49:22,520
Speaker 11: Father's Day. In Major League Baseball, Manny Machado was ejected

2182
01:49:22,680 --> 01:49:24,680
Speaker 11: in the Padres game against the Mets of New York.

2183
01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:27,880
Speaker 11: He disagreed on a third called strike. He slammed his

2184
01:49:27,960 --> 01:49:30,639
Speaker 11: back was ejected, but he kind of gave the Padres

2185
01:49:30,680 --> 01:49:33,599
Speaker 11: some life and they have now added some more runs,

2186
01:49:33,600 --> 01:49:35,200
Speaker 11: but the Mets are still on top. It is eight

2187
01:49:35,160 --> 01:49:36,519
Speaker 11: to six bottom of the eighth inning.

2188
01:49:36,560 --> 01:49:37,479
Speaker 10: Again in New York.

2189
01:49:37,720 --> 01:49:40,800
Speaker 11: The Brewers are slightly on top of the Reds five

2190
01:49:40,880 --> 01:49:42,600
Speaker 11: to four bottom of the eighth inning. The Twins have

2191
01:49:42,600 --> 01:49:44,240
Speaker 11: added some more runs. They're beating the a six to

2192
01:49:44,280 --> 01:49:45,840
Speaker 11: one in game one of their double header. It's the

2193
01:49:45,880 --> 01:49:48,160
Speaker 11: top of the ninth inning. The Pirates have added some

2194
01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:50,479
Speaker 11: more runs. They're blanking the Rockies three zero, top at

2195
01:49:50,479 --> 01:49:53,040
Speaker 11: the six. The Angels added another one. They're blanking the

2196
01:49:53,040 --> 01:49:55,320
Speaker 11: Giants to zero bottom of the second inning, and the

2197
01:49:55,360 --> 01:49:58,080
Speaker 11: Diamondbacks are blanking the White Sox at home three zero

2198
01:49:58,120 --> 01:50:01,439
Speaker 11: bottom of the second inning. Royals and Dodger scoreless bottom

2199
01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:03,840
Speaker 11: of the second, just like the Rangers. In the Mariners

2200
01:50:04,040 --> 01:50:06,000
Speaker 11: games that have ended, the Rays outscored.

2201
01:50:05,640 --> 01:50:06,559
Speaker 10: The Braves eight six.

2202
01:50:06,640 --> 01:50:08,519
Speaker 11: Hose Siri had to go ahead to run homer in

2203
01:50:08,560 --> 01:50:11,000
Speaker 11: the ninth inning for Tampa Bay. The Cardinals edged the

2204
01:50:11,040 --> 01:50:13,680
Speaker 11: Cubs two to one, the Nationals defeated the Marlins three

2205
01:50:13,680 --> 01:50:15,880
Speaker 11: to one, and the Astros had a four to one

2206
01:50:15,960 --> 01:50:20,799
Speaker 11: victory over the Tigers. Houston pitcher Ronel Blanco seven innings,

2207
01:50:20,840 --> 01:50:24,120
Speaker 11: pitched no hits, and then they took him out. What

2208
01:50:24,720 --> 01:50:30,640
Speaker 11: they took him out, I know, very very frustrating. They

2209
01:50:30,720 --> 01:50:32,880
Speaker 11: used two more pitchers, one for the eighth and one

2210
01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:36,120
Speaker 11: for the ninth inning. Hossel Tuova three run homer. I know,

2211
01:50:36,160 --> 01:50:37,600
Speaker 11: I was hoping. I was hoping they were going to

2212
01:50:37,640 --> 01:50:38,439
Speaker 11: send him back out there.

2213
01:50:38,360 --> 01:50:40,519
Speaker 10: And he didn't even he hadn't even reached one hundred pitches.

2214
01:50:41,960 --> 01:50:44,599
Speaker 10: It's annoying, don't I know? It's so annoying.

2215
01:50:44,880 --> 01:50:47,760
Speaker 11: The Orioles beat the Phillies eight three, four homers for

2216
01:50:47,800 --> 01:50:50,200
Speaker 11: Baltimore in the game, but Philly is expected to have

2217
01:50:50,439 --> 01:50:52,960
Speaker 11: Trey Turner back Monday after missing the last six weeks

2218
01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:55,599
Speaker 11: with the left hamstring string, and the Blue Jays held

2219
01:50:55,600 --> 01:50:58,320
Speaker 11: on to defeat the Guardian seven to six. In soccer

2220
01:50:58,479 --> 01:51:02,439
Speaker 11: at Euro twenty twenty four, England still beating Serbia one nil,

2221
01:51:02,760 --> 01:51:07,360
Speaker 11: reaching the seventy eighth minute. Earlier today, Netherlands defeated Poland

2222
01:51:07,360 --> 01:51:09,519
Speaker 11: two to one, and Denmark and Slovenia ended in a

2223
01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:10,320
Speaker 11: one to one draw.

2224
01:51:10,520 --> 01:51:12,560
Speaker 10: Today's feel good story in sports.

2225
01:51:12,760 --> 01:51:16,200
Speaker 11: Denmark's Christian Erickson scored that goal in the seventeenth minute,

2226
01:51:16,400 --> 01:51:19,200
Speaker 11: three years after he suffered cardiac arrests on the pitch.

2227
01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:20,240
Speaker 10: If you guys remember that.

2228
01:51:20,120 --> 01:51:22,760
Speaker 4: That's I do remember that. Yeah, unbelievable story.

2229
01:51:22,920 --> 01:51:23,880
Speaker 10: Unbelievable story.

2230
01:51:23,960 --> 01:51:26,760
Speaker 11: So that's the good field story in sports today. In

2231
01:51:26,840 --> 01:51:29,040
Speaker 11: the w NBA, we do have some games going on.

2232
01:51:29,120 --> 01:51:31,040
Speaker 11: Earlier today, the Fever beat the Sky ninety one to

2233
01:51:31,080 --> 01:51:33,479
Speaker 11: eighty three, Kaitlin Clark twenty three points, eight rebounds of

2234
01:51:33,520 --> 01:51:35,960
Speaker 11: nine assists. Right now, it's the Sparks beating the Dream

2235
01:51:36,040 --> 01:51:37,960
Speaker 11: sixty one fifty eight, one minute to go in the

2236
01:51:37,960 --> 01:51:40,439
Speaker 11: third quarter, Mercury on top of the Storm, seventy two

2237
01:51:40,520 --> 01:51:43,200
Speaker 11: to sixty six minutes left in the game, and the

2238
01:51:43,320 --> 01:51:49,360
Speaker 11: last one Men's College World Series Florida State beating Virginia

2239
01:51:49,560 --> 01:51:51,800
Speaker 11: seven to two, top of the eighth inning.

2240
01:51:52,200 --> 01:51:53,240
Speaker 10: It's a busy day.

2241
01:51:53,200 --> 01:51:53,760
Speaker 1: Busy day.

Speaker 10: Have a long drive and some dry desert heat.

2252
01:52:18,520 --> 01:52:22,120
Speaker 2: Yes it is, that's right, it's by the way, So

Speaker 2: thank you, MONSI so rich. You know it's no secret

2254
01:52:26,040 --> 01:52:28,640
Speaker 2: now that I'm in the Phoenix area.

2255
01:52:28,840 --> 01:52:30,680
Speaker 4: So my kids.

2256
01:52:30,520 --> 01:52:35,920
Speaker 2: Flew out, all three of them on Thursday to join

2257
01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:39,240
Speaker 2: me and see where I'm hanging out these days, and

2258
01:52:40,360 --> 01:52:43,920
Speaker 2: took them to the Diamondbacks game against the Angels.

2259
01:52:44,120 --> 01:52:45,840
Speaker 4: It was a good knight for the Diamondbacks. They won

2260
01:52:45,920 --> 01:52:46,639
Speaker 4: eleven to one.

2261
01:52:46,720 --> 01:52:51,240
Speaker 2: Christian Walker he had two home runs and Jack Peterson

2262
01:52:51,320 --> 01:52:53,960
Speaker 2: hit a grand Slam. So Angels are just pathetic. I

2263
01:52:53,960 --> 01:52:56,479
Speaker 2: mean it was it was bad. So here here was

2264
01:52:56,520 --> 01:53:00,880
Speaker 2: the real kicker. So we left. Chase Field walked out

2265
01:53:00,880 --> 01:53:02,240
Speaker 2: and you know, of course it's a dome, so you

2266
01:53:02,240 --> 01:53:05,040
Speaker 2: don't have to worry about the heat. Well, we walked outside.

2267
01:53:05,120 --> 01:53:07,680
Speaker 2: It was nine to thirty in the evening and it

2268
01:53:07,760 --> 01:53:09,480
Speaker 2: was ninety six degrees.

2269
01:53:12,080 --> 01:53:14,000
Speaker 4: And I love it because it's like, well it's a

2270
01:53:14,080 --> 01:53:15,759
Speaker 4: dry heat. It's dry.

2271
01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:20,000
Speaker 2: I mean like we're talking like three percent humidity, Like

2272
01:53:20,000 --> 01:53:21,360
Speaker 2: there's zero humidity.

2273
01:53:21,720 --> 01:53:23,280
Speaker 4: It's like a furnace heat.

2274
01:53:23,520 --> 01:53:27,120
Speaker 1: I so I remembered with the Cardinals. I played with

2275
01:53:27,120 --> 01:53:30,160
Speaker 1: the Cardinals for a season in twenty twelve, and when

2276
01:53:30,200 --> 01:53:34,160
Speaker 1: I landed, I landed at night. I was going to

2277
01:53:34,600 --> 01:53:37,040
Speaker 1: spend the night in Phoenix and then they were gonna

2278
01:53:37,080 --> 01:53:40,000
Speaker 1: drive me up to Flagstaff the next afternoon because I

2279
01:53:40,040 --> 01:53:42,960
Speaker 1: had to do all the medical stuff prior to going

2280
01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:45,679
Speaker 1: up to training camp. They signed me right at training

2281
01:53:45,680 --> 01:53:49,040
Speaker 1: camp open around August or maybe it was August first. Anyways,

2282
01:53:49,400 --> 01:53:53,439
Speaker 1: so we land and it's it's an evening flight, so

2283
01:53:53,479 --> 01:53:56,240
Speaker 1: I probably land just before sunset, and I'm like, oh

2284
01:53:56,280 --> 01:53:57,000
Speaker 1: my god, it.

2285
01:53:56,960 --> 01:53:59,000
Speaker 3: Is oppressively hot outside.

2286
01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:01,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go into the hotel, get settled in for

2287
01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:04,240
Speaker 1: the night, and then I'll go out and I'll get

2288
01:54:04,240 --> 01:54:07,200
Speaker 1: a burger or something, you know later on. So I

2289
01:54:07,240 --> 01:54:09,080
Speaker 1: saw there was an in and out burger across street.

2290
01:54:09,080 --> 01:54:11,719
Speaker 1: I'm like, perfect, that's where I'm heading. So I'm making

2291
01:54:11,760 --> 01:54:13,720
Speaker 1: a couple of phone calls, and before i know.

2292
01:54:13,720 --> 01:54:15,240
Speaker 3: It, it's like nine thirty at night.

2293
01:54:15,520 --> 01:54:18,240
Speaker 1: So I'm like, jeez, I better get heading out to this,

2294
01:54:18,920 --> 01:54:21,200
Speaker 1: you know, get dinner otherwise I'm not gonna'm gonna miss

2295
01:54:21,240 --> 01:54:25,160
Speaker 1: my opportunity here. So my phone rings again, and so

2296
01:54:25,240 --> 01:54:27,960
Speaker 1: I answer a quick call. But now it's like it's

2297
01:54:28,040 --> 01:54:30,639
Speaker 1: like ten to ten. So around the same time you're

2298
01:54:30,640 --> 01:54:33,200
Speaker 1: talking about, like it's almost ten o'clock at night, I'm

2299
01:54:33,320 --> 01:54:37,040
Speaker 1: walking out of the front lobby of this hotel and

2300
01:54:37,160 --> 01:54:40,120
Speaker 1: I get hit with what I can only describe as

2301
01:54:40,160 --> 01:54:43,040
Speaker 1: the same heat you would experience opening up an oven

2302
01:54:43,120 --> 01:54:45,560
Speaker 1: to bake cookies, Like you get that wave of heat

2303
01:54:45,600 --> 01:54:48,560
Speaker 1: that hits you. And so I let the sliding of

2304
01:54:48,680 --> 01:54:50,880
Speaker 1: the sliding doors close in front of me, and I

2305
01:54:51,000 --> 01:54:53,480
Speaker 1: walk over to the lobby, the front desk, checking lady,

2306
01:54:53,520 --> 01:54:56,760
Speaker 1: and I go, hey, how hot is it outside? And

2307
01:54:56,800 --> 01:54:59,880
Speaker 1: she points over to the monitor in the lobby that's

2308
01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:04,600
Speaker 1: shows the current temperature. It was one hundred and eleven degrees. Yeah,

2309
01:55:04,680 --> 01:55:07,600
Speaker 1: at ten o'clock at night. Nice. I just decided, you

2319
01:55:29,040 --> 01:55:30,080

Speaker 2: Well, all the best to ever everyone out there, all

2355
01:57:05,960 --> 01:57:09,880
Speaker 2: the dads out there. By the way, what did you

2356
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:16,120
Speaker 2: make of Charles Barkley announcing that he is retiring from television?

2357
01:57:16,280 --> 01:57:20,680
Speaker 2: As you know, TNT is about to lose the NBA contract.

2358
01:57:21,360 --> 01:57:23,920
Speaker 2: They got one more year, and he says, I'm not

2359
01:57:24,000 --> 01:57:30,240
Speaker 2: going anywhere after that. I am retiring completely from television

2360
01:57:30,280 --> 01:57:33,000
Speaker 2: after twenty five years. I'm looking forward to playing a

2361
01:57:33,000 --> 01:57:34,960
Speaker 2: lot more golf and a lot more fishing.

2362
01:57:35,320 --> 01:57:35,960
Speaker 3: Do you believe that?

2363
01:57:36,560 --> 01:57:39,080
Speaker 1: I don't believe it. I feel like I feel like

2364
01:57:39,240 --> 01:57:43,480
Speaker 1: Charles Barkley will be back. I think of him like

2365
01:57:43,600 --> 01:57:46,560
Speaker 1: I think of a lot of entertainers, and really he's

2366
01:57:46,680 --> 01:57:51,360
Speaker 1: transitioned from being a great basketball to being a great entertainer.

2367
01:57:52,360 --> 01:57:54,720
Speaker 3: It's a performance based industry.

2368
01:57:54,880 --> 01:57:57,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's waiting for a bigger offerer. I mean he is.

2369
01:57:57,800 --> 01:58:04,160
Speaker 2: I've said this, Howard Kosell, John Madden, Charles Barkley, And

2370
01:58:04,280 --> 01:58:09,960
Speaker 2: there's a very short list of analysts who actually are

2371
01:58:10,160 --> 01:58:11,160
Speaker 2: bigger than the games.

2372
01:58:11,800 --> 01:58:14,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you could, I guess you could probably show

2373
01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:16,600
Speaker 1: throw Shack's name in that.

2374
01:58:16,880 --> 01:58:18,880
Speaker 2: I don't put Shack in the same I mean, I

2375
01:58:18,920 --> 01:58:21,760
Speaker 2: love Shack, he's a great pitch man. But no, I

2376
01:58:22,360 --> 01:58:26,040
Speaker 2: what Barkley says is of interest to people.

2377
01:58:26,200 --> 01:58:28,760
Speaker 3: That's a good point. That's a good point. A Shack

2378
01:58:29,000 --> 01:58:31,400
Speaker 3: is everyone's favorite neighbor.

2379
01:58:31,560 --> 01:58:32,480
Speaker 4: Everyone loves Shack.

2380
01:58:32,640 --> 01:58:37,320
Speaker 1: But but Charles Barkley, he actually does say some stirring

2381
01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:38,720
Speaker 1: and interest.

2382
01:58:38,920 --> 01:58:41,760
Speaker 4: You want to know what he has to say.

2383
01:58:41,400 --> 01:58:43,600
Speaker 3: And sometimes controversial things.

2384
01:58:43,680 --> 01:58:46,360
Speaker 1: And by the way, whether you love what he's saying

2385
01:58:46,400 --> 01:58:51,400
Speaker 1: at all times or you vehemently disagree, he's engaging.

2386
01:58:51,120 --> 01:58:52,000
Speaker 4: Oh, no question.

2387
01:58:52,120 --> 01:58:54,120
Speaker 1: And so I agree with you. I think he's a

2388
01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:57,000
Speaker 1: smart guy. I think he's a great broadcaster. I think

2389
01:58:57,000 --> 01:58:59,000
Speaker 1: he was a great player, and I think he's lived

2390
01:58:59,080 --> 01:59:03,320
Speaker 1: and existed in a performance space industry for so long.

2391
01:59:03,400 --> 01:59:05,680
Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna be able to just quit

2392
01:59:05,720 --> 01:59:07,680
Speaker 1: a cold turkey. I agree with what you just said.

2393
01:59:07,720 --> 01:59:11,560
Speaker 1: I think this is I think he deserves a break,

2394
01:59:11,800 --> 01:59:14,560
Speaker 1: And if that's exactly what he's doing, then he should

2395
01:59:14,600 --> 01:59:17,240
Speaker 1: feel proud of himself for getting to a point in

2396
01:59:17,280 --> 01:59:18,960
Speaker 1: his life where he doesn't have to worry about money

2397
01:59:18,960 --> 01:59:21,520
Speaker 1: anymore and just can kick his feet up for a

2398
01:59:21,560 --> 01:59:24,800
Speaker 1: little bit. But I promise you if somebody offers him

2399
01:59:24,840 --> 01:59:27,440
Speaker 1: what he feels he's worth to do something that he

2400
01:59:27,520 --> 01:59:30,520
Speaker 1: feels interested in. We'll see him back in front of

2401
01:59:30,560 --> 01:59:30,960
Speaker 1: a camera.

2402
01:59:31,360 --> 01:59:34,760
Speaker 2: I take it from someone that is like Charles in

2403
01:59:34,840 --> 01:59:38,400
Speaker 2: terms of liking the sound of his own voice. If

2404
01:59:38,440 --> 01:59:40,880
Speaker 2: you like to hear what you have to say, which

2405
01:59:40,960 --> 01:59:44,360
Speaker 2: Charles loves to hear what he has to say, then

2406
01:59:44,440 --> 01:59:46,200
Speaker 2: you don't want to give that up. That's sort of

2407
01:59:46,240 --> 01:59:47,720
Speaker 2: part of your life blood.

2408
01:59:48,120 --> 01:59:48,480
Speaker 4: All right.

2409
01:59:48,520 --> 01:59:52,560
Speaker 2: That being said, let's talk about Game five of the

2410
01:59:52,680 --> 01:59:55,360
Speaker 2: NBA Finals. Let's let's make a prediction right now, Rich

2411
01:59:55,360 --> 01:59:59,400
Speaker 2: because you picked before the series Celtics him five. Yep,

2412
01:59:59,480 --> 02:00:02,560
Speaker 2: so right now you are one hundred percent on target.

2413
02:00:03,120 --> 02:00:09,000
Speaker 2: I actually predicted Celtics in seven. So the question is,

2414
02:00:09,600 --> 02:00:13,400
Speaker 2: when we sit here next Sunday, are we gonna be

2415
02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:16,320
Speaker 2: looking back on a series that's been over for almost

2416
02:00:16,320 --> 02:00:19,720
Speaker 2: a week, or is there a chance that we're actually

2417
02:00:19,840 --> 02:00:22,080
Speaker 2: previewing Game seven.

2418
02:00:22,600 --> 02:00:27,360
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not some amazing you know nails sports better,

2419
02:00:28,800 --> 02:00:31,320
Speaker 1: but I've had this one dead to rights.

2420
02:00:31,560 --> 02:00:34,600
Speaker 3: I literally have called this every step of the way.

2421
02:00:35,360 --> 02:00:38,520
Speaker 1: Boston in five. Dallas is gonna win one of the

2422
02:00:38,560 --> 02:00:42,040
Speaker 1: two at home, most likely the second one, you know,

2423
02:00:42,120 --> 02:00:45,040
Speaker 1: because They're gonna face the sweep in front of their

2424
02:00:45,160 --> 02:00:47,120
Speaker 1: fan base and they're not going to want to go

2425
02:00:47,200 --> 02:00:49,560
Speaker 1: down like that, and then Boston will take them in

2426
02:00:49,600 --> 02:00:52,880
Speaker 1: Game five in front of their home fans. I have

2427
02:00:53,000 --> 02:00:53,560
Speaker 1: Boston in.

2428
02:00:53,560 --> 02:00:57,160
Speaker 2: Five, Wow, I would I'm gonna stay with my Boston

2429
02:00:57,200 --> 02:00:57,600
Speaker 2: in seven.

2430
02:00:57,720 --> 02:00:59,280
Speaker 4: I don't know how it's gonna happen.

2431
02:00:59,840 --> 02:01:02,600
Speaker 2: The way to Shamba a second shot on number eleven,

2432
02:01:02,640 --> 02:01:04,680
Speaker 2: he was in some bad stuff into the trap. We

2433
02:01:04,760 --> 02:01:08,120
Speaker 2: got a big US Open final coming. Hey, folks, enjoy
