Well, 0:02:57.440 --> 0:02:59.440 I was in my cold tub and I jumped right 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:01.919 into the pool and I was getting all those tingles. 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:05.200 And you only get those tingles when the hot tub 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:07.919 is at least one hundred something degrees, and I was 0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:10.440 getting those tingles in the pool, so I'm talking at 0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:13.280 least ninety nine degrees, and it felt so good because 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.720 it's a saltwater pool as well. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:17.760 And you know it's just healing me. You know I'd 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:18.800 like to do those tricks. 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:21.720 But the best part about what I've been doing, actually 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.640 I just got here. The other day, I was in Buffalo, 0:03:25.080 --> 0:03:27.760 New York, where I grew up, my hometown, and I 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:32.639 got to go and see my brother's kids play all 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.520 their sports games. And I got to see one of 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:39.880 them play hockey, baseball, flag football as well. I got 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:43.800 to see the other one play football, flag football, and baseball, 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:45.440 and then I got to see his daughter play a 0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:47.560 softball game. And let me tell you, it was one 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:50.280 of the best weekends I've ever had in Buffalo. It 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:52.320 was just so cool to see them ball out. They 0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:55.040 were hitting doubles, they were making plays in the infield, 0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:59.120 like I'm talking, mossing people on the football field as well. 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:04.880 My old my oldest nephew, he looked like myself as well, 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:09.880 going up and high pointing that football Jay shout out 0:04:09.960 --> 0:04:12.760 to Jays, high pointing it over the DB's and bringing 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.360 it down and not letting anyone grab his flag. It 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:17.400 kind of looked like me, just barreling through all the 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:20.400 defenders and it's going a touchdown. I was super proud 0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:23.360 of him, man, And you're gonna be proud of Lily 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:26.200 obviously when she gets to that stage and she's just 0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:27.600 dominating folks. 0:04:27.240 --> 0:04:29.000 Out there, just like my brother's kids. 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:32.320 What do they call you? They call you Uncle Rob? Yeah, 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:36.799 Uncle Rob mm hmm, like Uncle Buck, Uncle Rob. 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:38.320 Just just Uncle Rob. 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.360 I like it, man, that's gotta be so sound smooth. 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:42.960 Yeah, I mean a good feeling. 0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:45.960 They have a lot of what do they have? Four kids? 0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:46.680 Three? 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:47.000 Yeah? 0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:50.119 My brother Dan has five kids and he's Buffalo. Chris 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:52.880 has four kids, and he's in Dallas, and Dallas has 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:56.760 great facilities, great sports down there, great leagues, and he 0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:58.920 just actually he just texted me in a group chat 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:01.839 with my family that my brother Chris actually his kid 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.480 just won the Little League World Series I guess for 0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:07.760 the World Series that it's called down there in the 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:11.719 Texas World. And his kid is six years old, I 0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.120 mean a six or eight years old. He's got too 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.440 many as well, so I'm not sure what one won 0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:18.240 the World Series, but I think it was a six 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.560 year old. So congratulations to him. But there's one thing 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:24.640 I want to talk about that I wish we had 0:05:25.080 --> 0:05:26.520 growing up as kids. 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:27.600 Jules, what do you want? 0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:29.720 What is it? 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:32.120 It's in the summer Olympics, for the first time in 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:33.280 twenty twenty eight. 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:36.120 Is flag football manage football. 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:41.040 I'm telling you, these kids are learning the game of 0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:47.640 football at such a young age to possibly a pedigree 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:50.839 that we have never learned the game of football at 0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:54.880 that age. The skill sets that they're learning, you know, 0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:58.160 out there just playing flag football without the physical part 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:02.000 is just amazing for their development. So when they start 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:04.120 in the future, I'm telling you, you got to be 0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:07.000 able to, you know, create space still so you can 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:08.920 go out go out there and beat your defender because 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:11.560 there's playing zone coverage. They're also playing man coverage out 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:14.280 there on the defensive side of the ball, so you're 0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:16.359 seeing it all. And then also to be able to 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:19.279 juke defenders and not get your flag, you know, pull 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:23.360 pulled from you. It's great development and it's so fun too, 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:24.360 and I wish. 0:06:24.120 --> 0:06:25.359 We had it, dude. 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:29.360 It's it's the fastest growing girls sport in the world. 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.839 I think it's it's it's getting huge. I I bought 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:37.239 a I bought a flag football size for Lily's age, 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:38.599 and we've been throwing it around. 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:45.640 It's been fun. But to what you said, I agree. 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:50.240 The spatial recognition you get from flag football will help 0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:53.640 a lot of these skill players when they transition into 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:57.680 tackle football now, like being able to decipher if it's 0:06:57.760 --> 0:07:01.159 man or zone. That's pretty much seven on seven. That's 0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:04.000 pretty much what flag football is. All you're doing is 0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:07.000 identifying who's trying to be on you, what zone it is, 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.080 and finding those little soft spots. 0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:11.320 So I think that'll help these kids. 0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:16.840 Transition, which we've seen receivers transition at a record rate 0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:21.840 these last six seven years, justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase. Young 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:26.800 receivers come in right away and understand football and make 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:31.160 huge impacts to their team. And I think that flag 0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:34.600 football and all these seven on seven camps are a 0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:37.600 huge reason for that, you know, and the information being 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:41.280 able to like study what pro football is now. But 0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:44.560 like going back to flag football, I'm so excited for this. 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:47.520 Should we try to like get back in shape and play. 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.960 I mean, they were working out there and it's quick. 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.800 You know, you don't have that much time in between 0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.720 each plays. You gotta be in top shape. And Jules 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.280 out of the game for quite some time now, maybe 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:04.760 a couple of years, So pump the breaks. I like 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.600 where your head's at though, But we're gonna be big fans, 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:10.640 and we're gonna be obviously following flag football in the 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:14.720 twenty twenty eight Olympics, and maybe the closest thing we 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.040 can possibly do is coach. 0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:20.800 I don't know, man, It's it's been like real, it's 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:24.680 been real heaty over the flag football talk with the 0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:29.400 flag football community into you know, being combined with some 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:32.040 of the NFL guys because the owners passed it and 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:35.559 the nf NFL guys are like automatically thinking they're getting 0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:37.800 on the team the flag football guys like there's a 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:42.000 different sport. Fucked, we're better at float. Like I don't 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:44.600 know if I have time for all. There's so much conflict. 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:47.360 I'm just chooting this one. I'm gonna watch this Ninka 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:50.480 and just be a fan and root for America. 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:51.280 Mm hmm. 0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:53.880 There we go. Well we're taking it home. I'm already 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:56.040 calling it. We're going to win the Golden Flag Football 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:56.800 in twenty two. 0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:59.000 If we don't win the fucking goal, we got a problem. 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:00.319 It would be a. 0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:04.680 It would be bad. But I just hope we don't. 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:06.720 I hope we don't go into this because these other 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:11.520 countries they've been playing this shit for like fifteen sixteen years. 0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:14.160 Like they love this stuff because I went to Israel 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.960 and I went to the Craft Stadium and visited like 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:20.160 their facility, and they're in this world league. Like they 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:22.960 have eleven on eleven tackle but a lot of it 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:26.040 is flag football, and like they developed the kids in 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:28.360 flag and bring them to tackle. But like there's a 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:32.440 world league that's been playing world flag football for a while, 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:35.520 and I'm just afraid if you know, we go in 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:38.559 there with our NFL guys, A it's a different game, 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.600 Like you know, we may be way more athletic and stuff, 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:44.440 but you know, like we can't you can't flag guard. 0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:46.520 What are the rules of the line of scrimmage? 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:49.880 Can you hold? Like what are the rule bases for 0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:50.440 this thing? 0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:53.719 Like, so I don't want to go in this thing, Like, oh, 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:57.160 we know football were automatically going to win gold. Look, 0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.520 this is a different game. This is a different game, 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:01.920 you know, and these guys have been playing. I mean, 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:06.920 I get athlete on athlete. We should be fucking light 0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:07.640 years ahead. 0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:09.000 But we don't know. 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:12.120 I don't know if the rules cater to like people 0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:12.959 that aren't athletic. 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:18.640 MM, We're still gonna win the gold. We're too good. 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:20.000 We're too good in America? 0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.920 What about And I was just about to change the page. 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:27.760 I know what you're going to talk about. Brad Marshaan. Yes, 0:10:27.960 --> 0:10:28.640 Brad Marshan. 0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:30.040 Do you see him partying right now? 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:33.840 I haven't seen him partying, but I can just imagine 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:35.720 what he's doing. I remember when he won the Cup 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:40.320 in twenty eleven in Boston and they were partying their 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:41.320 face off up there. 0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:42.720 He was partying his face off. 0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:46.680 But what I did see, Jules, is that they dented 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:51.560 the Stanley Cup like we dented the Lombardi Trophy at 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:55.080 the Panthers took a page out of our playbook, Jules. 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:56.320 Should we bill him? 0:10:57.000 --> 0:11:00.800 I mean, we should definitely have our IP lawyer contact 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:04.320 their IP lawyer for the image that they posted because 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:07.440 it could be IP infringement to the original dent. 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:11.880 Mm hmm, I don't know, mm hmm. So many lawyers 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:13.160 these days we can. 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:16.480 Find gratulations to the Florida Panthers. I was kind of 0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:19.280 cheering for that ed Miinton oiler just for one reason. 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:22.560 I really love you know, Connor McDavid. I love his game, 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:24.319 I love his skill set, I love what he does 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:27.480 out there out in the ice. That must hurt to 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:29.800 go back to back to the Stanley Cup and lose 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:31.679 both times to the same team. 0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:34.760 And also shout out to the state of Florida. 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:35.720 Fucking Florida. 0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:39.240 You know, in the hockey world, the last six years 0:11:39.240 --> 0:11:43.640 in a row there has been a Florida team representing 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:48.439 the Stanley Cup playoffs. Obviously, twenty twenty, twenty one, twenty 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:51.560 two was the Tampa Bay Lightning, then twenty three, twenty four, 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:53.720 twenty five was the Florida Panthers. 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:55.960 They each lost one time as. 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:59.920 Well, but a huge shoutouts to Winds And it's tough. 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:03.120 It's tough, you know, for Canada right now in the 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:06.120 NHL world, getting back to back to the Cup for 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:10.720 the Oilers and losing both times. And Canada hasn't won 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:14.280 in quite some time, you know, the Stanley Cup. And 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.400 I can tell you this, So the Florida Panthers ain't 0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:21.000 that great of a community to celebrate with because it's 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:23.319 not really a hockey town. 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.120 It's got to be one now though maybe they've made 0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:30.160 themselves into a hockey town. You win like this, I 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:32.559 mean you think about like the La Kings before they 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:35.559 had the great one, they weren't like a really big 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:39.400 hockey community in a warm area. Now, Like I walk 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:42.520 around LA and people love the Kings. This is two 0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:46.520 Stanley Cups back to back. I mean, these people, they 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:50.040 probably love hockey. I mean Florida it's freaking crazy. It's 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:55.199 it's an oxy moorn. The warmest place is holding the 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:59.040 cold sport title a lot of the time. 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.640 It's nuts. How is it do people like? Do people 0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:03.560 like hockey down there? 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:06.280 They love hockey here in Tampa Bay, I can tell 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:08.760 you that. But over there, you know, on the other 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.760 side of the state, there's so much going on going 0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:16.320 on in southern Florida. I mean, there's so much more 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.400 to do, and the thing about being in Florida as 0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:22.000 well as you go to Florida to be outside, to 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:26.640 do activities outside. Yes, they're bringing so much awareness down there. 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:30.280 You know the Florida Panthers, you know, to that organization, 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:34.280 and it's caught on big time. But it's not like 0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:38.560 what it would be if the Edmonton Oilers, yeah, won 0:13:38.640 --> 0:13:43.560 the Cup. I'm talking everyone Pannemoni that area would be 0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:44.280 at the parade. 0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:46.960 Does this have to do with taxes, because why the 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:52.280 hell is all? How are all the most untraditional organizations 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:56.000 in like one of the most like Gung Ho Canada 0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:59.959 Cold Sports. How the fuck is the Florida teams winning 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:02.480 is because these guys want to go down there and 0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:05.000 get no tax. Because you go to Canada, they're taking 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:07.040 three quarters your money go to some of the states 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:10.800 here they're taking half. Is that the reason it's crazy 0:14:10.800 --> 0:14:12.880 to me? Like, how are how are the Florida teams 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:14.640 winning in hockey? 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:17.360 Mm hmm, Well that's a big jones. 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:21.040 That's a big topic that's up for discussion actually in 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:22.400 the NHL right now. 0:14:23.080 --> 0:14:25.080 And I saw Biz Nasty talking about it. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:27.360 He kind of got shamed about it by saying, that's 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:29.960 why these Florida teams are winning. But it's the same 0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:32.400 thing in the NFL world. You can go to a 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.560 you know, a team that has zero percent state tax, and. 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:37.840 I don't think that's a game changer. 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:41.320 I think if you put a list you know of 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:44.080 the pros and cons of why you're choosing a team, 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:47.520 I just think it's a pro. But I don't think 0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:52.560 it's the necessary factor of why these teams are good 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:54.760 and why players would go to this organization. 0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:56.320 Organization that's a pro. 0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:59.800 The quality of life is probably a huge. 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:01.080 That's a prob. 0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:03.720 The wife's happy, the kids get to go to freaking 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:07.680 day camp outside and play in the water. I mean, 0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:10.680 those are two huge pros for like these hockey guys 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.360 that are like family type guys, you know, the happy wife, 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.840 happy life mentality. That's what kind of guys they are. 0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:18.600 I'm sure they like keeping that check too. They don't 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:22.560 got the bigger contracts like you know, football, basketball, baseball. 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:25.680 They still have huge contracts, but you just don't know. 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:29.480 It makes me scratch my head. It's like, how the 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:32.280 hell do we not have? Canada hasn't won a goddamn 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:35.400 Cup in years, like thirty forty years. 0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:39.200 The main factor is, though, why these teams are winning 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:41.880 down here in Florida is because the Florida Panthers and 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:46.800 the Tampa Bay Lightning they have great quality guys running 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:48.360 the organization. 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:50.720 From Seun Thorarty bottom seanth Thorti. 0:15:50.520 --> 0:15:54.240 Forty down there on the on the other side of Florida. 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:56.800 What would we say, that's the east coast of Florida 0:15:57.120 --> 0:16:00.920 running the Florida Panthers. I play pickleball with the gms 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:04.280 here in Tampa Bay and they're on top of their game. 0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:07.280 Man they're sharp, they know what they're doing. We talk ball, 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.280 we talk football, we talk hockey, and they and they 0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:12.520 and they get it, you know, and and they run it. 0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:15.040 And they're running the organization the way the organization needs 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:18.560 to be run. That's one of the main reasons why 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:19.440 these teams are good. 0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:22.800 So it's got to be that they hired the right people. 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:23.960 M hm. 0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:29.240 I mean, if you want to like, look, they hired 0:16:29.480 --> 0:16:31.440 the right people to bring in the right people, the 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:36.040 right guys, the right team, the right trainers, the right 0:16:36.200 --> 0:16:39.240 everything that is. That's huge. So you got to tip 0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:41.680 your cap to both of those owners. Are they new owners? 0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:45.280 The Tampa Bay Lightning has been very stable, you know 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:48.680 with their owners. I don't know about the Florida Panthers. 0:16:48.720 --> 0:16:50.360 I don't know where they're at. I don't know if 0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:52.720 the team was sold recently or not. You know, I 0:16:52.840 --> 0:16:55.880 just know that the Florida Panthers are just dominating left 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:59.000 and dominating that our boy Authority is down there running 0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:02.160 the organization and doing whatever he's doing to help out 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:04.359 because he went down there when they were absolute trash 0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:06.800 and now he flipped the script and they've flipped just 0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:08.000 been dominating over the. 0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:11.200 Last four years right, no other He's something. 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:12.240 I know. 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:18.840 He's something important. Is how about the Oklahoma City Thunder? 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:22.359 Are they they're gonna knock this down? Is it in 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:23.520 nailing the coffin? 0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:24.280 Is it over? 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:25.320 I think it's over. 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.520 I thought it was over even after the first game 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:31.520 when the Indiana Pacers won. I mean, they're just absolute dominating. 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:34.000 That first game the Pacers won, they finally took the 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:38.040 lead with point three seconds left with the hell Burton shot, 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:40.840 you know, with the most clutch player that I've ever 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:45.160 seen in an NBA Playoffs history, which has just been ubsurd. 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:48.199 He's been like twelve or fourteen or something with the 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:51.359 final shot and hitting it. But I just knew the 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:56.560 Oklahoma City Thunder they're just too good. They're well rounded overall, 0:17:56.600 --> 0:17:59.960 and I just don't see the Pacers winning the next. 0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:01.720 They kind of remind me. 0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:06.560 Like this style basketball reminds me a lot of our 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:10.760 style football. Why is that because everyone says it's not sexy, 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:13.640 but it's effective as fuck. And they still have they 0:18:13.640 --> 0:18:15.720 got a superstar, and they got a bunch of good players. 0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:17.560 They don't have, you know, they don't have the Big 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:20.040 five or Big three, but they got a bunch of 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:23.440 upcoming guys that they've developed over the years and drafted, 0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:26.280 and they found the one guy that makes it all 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:29.360 run who's a great quarterback, you know what I mean, 0:18:29.400 --> 0:18:31.920 Like and everyone kind of bags on him for his 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:34.600 game because he does. He's not always flashy, but he's 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:37.119 got really good mid range, like the mid you know 0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:37.600 what I mean. 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:39.159 I know exactly what you mean. 0:18:39.240 --> 0:18:43.399 They also play great defense, guys doing their job, doing 0:18:43.440 --> 0:18:46.040 what the coach you know, has schemed up, running the 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:49.119 players that they need to run. It does kind of 0:18:49.160 --> 0:18:53.160 remind me of us on the New England Patriots, and they're. 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:55.160 Kind of like that Santonio shit, you know what I mean. 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:58.720 It's like no one liked watching San Antonio win, but 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:03.280 they were effect of an efficient and knew what to 0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:06.320 do to win games. And that's what that's what you 0:19:06.359 --> 0:19:09.800 see with Okay, see, I mean, they they play, they're 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:15.080 they're they're just like everyone's good. Everyone plays hard, fucking 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:18.520 Their leader is a great one, like their leader p 0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:21.199 s G or s g A or whatever is my 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:27.240 guy for Montreal SGA. Like how he handles the media, man, 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:30.760 I love how he handles the media. He's he's a professional. 0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:31.680 He is. 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:32.719 He's a true bro. 0:19:33.119 --> 0:19:37.080
