44
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 2: that strong stat of the Day brought to you by

00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: Sports Network, or listening on our radio affiliates around the

00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 2: country numbering over four hundred cities, they carry the program.

51
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 2: Twenty four hours ago, It's overtime Team USA and Canada,

52
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: with Jack Hughes scoring the game winner and the fallout

53
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 2: from that. I don't know what morale is like in Canada.

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: I could only immatt well, I don't even know if

55
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: I could imagine what it was like or is like

56
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 2: after what happened yesterday. Uh, the women's team also losing

57
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: gold medal to the United States. That was expected yesterday

58
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 2: was not expected. And I think there were to a

59
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 2: man the Canadian team saying we were better, and yes,

60
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 2: they probably were more talented, and for most of the

61
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: game it felt like they always had the puck. They

62
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 2: always had, you know, some kind of scoring opportunity. But

63
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: all it takes is one or two you have a

64
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: great goaltender and then all you need is one other

65
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: person to make a play, and that's what you had.

66
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 2: And it sounded like this.

67
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 4: To not stay with numbers.

68
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: To profit Cups.

69
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 4: The United States.

70
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 6: For the first team since the nineteen eighty Better Golf

71
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 6: in the United States.

72
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 4: Takes the goal.

73
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 2: Kenny Albert with the call, did a wonderful job with

74
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 2: you know, and you know he even says they got numbers,

75
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 2: so you know, there was that uh oh, something could

76
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 2: happen because a lot of times you'll see a rush

77
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 2: and you go, oh, I didn't. I didn't really realize

78
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 2: that they were going to end up scoring a goal.

79
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 2: It didn't look like it looked kind of harmless. But

80
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 2: this is three on three hockey, and yes, do we

81
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 2: want three on three hockey in the Olympics for the

82
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:43,279
Speaker 2: gold medal?

83
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 4: No?

84
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: I do not. But both teams knew you get to overtime.

85
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 2: It's three on three, and Canada should have won that

86
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 2: three to one, four to one. They had their opportunities.

87
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 2: So I don't want to hear about well, it's not

88
00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 2: really hockey.

89
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 7: It is.

90
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 2: It is like it or not take care of everything

91
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 2: before you get to overtime. You don't have to worry

92
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 2: about that. But that one was devastating because when you think,

93
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 2: like the United States should be better than what they

94
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 2: are if you look back on forty six years ago,

95
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: we should be and Canada has been great and dominating.

96
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 2: And I really thought, the way that was going in

97
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 2: the first two periods, how does Canada not win this?

98
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 2: And all it took was a couple of brilliant saves

99
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, you know, you start

100
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 2: to realize all it takes is just one play. That

101
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 2: was it. When you get to overtime, it's just one play?

102
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: Could it be fluky? If you played ten times, would

103
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: Canada win nine? I'm not so sure about that. Now,

104
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: if you go to the Miracle on Ice Al Michael's

105
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 2: join us next hour. If they played ten times, the

106
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 2: Soviets are winning ten times. They were that good. But

107
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 2: those were professionals USA with Mike Eruzioni and Jim Craig,

108
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 2: I mean that they were college players. This is these

109
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 2: are professionals against professionals. But I did love the attitude,

110
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 2: the spirit. It just it felt big and it lived

111
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 2: up to it. And you know, when you're watching the Olympics,

112
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 2: when you think, oh, that person's going to win, the

113
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 2: quad god is going to win, and then the quad

114
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 2: God doesn't win. You're like, wait a minute, that's not

115
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 2: supposed to happen. Lindsey vonn is going to be one

116
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 2: of the big stories until she's in a hospital then.

117
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 2: But they the Olympics has a way of birthing new

118
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: heroes like Jack Hughes. I mean, he's a great player

119
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 2: for the Devils. I don't know if you're tuning in

120
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,720
Speaker 2: on Wednesday night on ESPN Plus when the Devil's play

121
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 2: the Sabers to watch Jack Hughes maybe or his brother maybe.

122
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 2: But I thought this was a great showcase for the NHL.

123
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: And I know it's tough to do that. It's tough

124
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 2: to do that in the middle of your season. I

125
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 2: understand that, But you got a chance to showcase your sport. Yes,

126
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: mar Hockey to me is kind of like soccer.

127
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 8: Every time you see a really exciting game in the

128
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 8: World Cup, you're like, how come I to watch this

129
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 8: more every single time it happened.

130
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: Well, curling is that way too, that you're watching it

131
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden I become an expert,

132
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,679
Speaker 2: you know, and you know it's kind of really simple

133
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 2: with what you do in curling, and you do feel like,

134
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 2: of all the sports in the Olympics, you kind of

135
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: feel like you could do that one. Yeah. See, I

136
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: got a.

137
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 9: Little burnt out on curling after a little while. Got

138
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 9: admit it was.

139
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 2: It was a little overdone. Okay, it was a little overdone.

140
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 9: I do think though, that hockey, while it's not my

141
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 9: favorite sport, it is the best.

142
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: Sport when it's played at its highest level, when you

143
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: have the Stanley Cup final over time, I think it

144
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: it supersedes all other sports.

145
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 9: And I think because you sort of you need like

146
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 9: the skill, like the technical skill of a soccer player,

147
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 9: the toughness of a football player, and the I don't know,

148
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 9: like speed or endurance of a basketball player maybe or something.

149
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 9: All of that back and forth and then you're on

150
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 9: and then you're off or whatever. It just combines some

151
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 9: of the best parts of all these other sports into one.

152
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: And they're the best athletes when you think about what

153
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 2: they do. And you get to have a stick, and

154
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 2: you got a stick and you're doing it on skates,

155
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 2: people are flying around, you're allowed to punch somebody. I mean,

156
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 2: you do go to the you know, the sin bin.

157
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 2: You get a time out, they don't. They don't spend you,

158
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 2: and it used to be they encouraged you to go

159
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 2: out there and punch somebody. It was just when it's

160
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: played at its highest level, I think it's better than

161
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: any other sport just because of the action with that.

162
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 2: And a friend of mine sent me a reminder of

163
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 2: just how close Toronto came to winning the World Series

164
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: the force out of the plate and then just how

165
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 2: close there were a couple of goals that should have happened.

166
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: And you think about just how close Canada came to

167
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 2: winning the World Series Toronto and winning the gold medal.

168
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 10: Yeah, Paul, I've got an Olympic wrap up article that

169
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 10: says curling got the most airtime because how the sport

170
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 10: takes a long time. It's like ten rounds or ends

171
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 10: as they call it. Curling got more airtime than any

172
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 10: other sports nationally, and.

173
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: Rightfully so rightfully so I did. I'm watching like I

174
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 2: don't even know what the You know, there was some

175
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 2: kind of cross country skiing yesterday, but I didn't know

176
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 2: exactly how long it was supposed to go, but it

177
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 2: felt like it was going on for hours, going through

178
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 2: the countryside there. I mean that now, those guys if

179
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 2: they're animals when you're out there, those are athletes. If

180
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 2: you've ever tried to cross country ski, your lungs are

181
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: burning like in the you know, first thirty seconds. Yeah.

182
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 9: See, it's so weird how you could watch especially it

183
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 9: seems like the Winter Olympics, and every year there seems

184
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 9: to be a new sport that I don't remember or like,

185
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 9: is this new this year? Have they always done that?

186
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 9: Curling had that sometime in the last I don't know

187
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 9: ten years or so, ten twelve years, where curling all

188
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,079
Speaker 9: of a sudden jumped down. We all loved curling. That

189
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 9: ski mountaineering thing where you're skiing uphill doing that, that's crazy.

190
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 9: I don't remember that one. I don't remember that getting

191
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 9: much attention. That is a crazy sport.

192
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 3: Yes, Todd and those cross country skiers they have a canteen,

193
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 3: a flashlight, a backpack.

194
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 4: They don't know how long they're that stuck up in

195
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 4: the mountains. They're gonna helicopter air lift them down.

196
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 2: I would love if you could do paintball with the

197
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 2: cross country skiing and the biathlon, so you could have

198
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 2: people hiding in the woods are there the targets? Yeah, yeah, wow, yeah, Hey,

199
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 2: I'm just spitballing here. You know about maybe doing something

200
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: like that that would that would be good. We'll call

201
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 2: the IOC. Yeah, but you would have colorful paint, you know,

202
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: and juxtapose that to the snow.

203
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 4: I would totally watch that.

204
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,960

Speaker 2: Of the weekend.

212
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 11: I'm a first time calling a longtime listener. My best

213
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 11: of the weekend, obvious is the US men's team bringing

214
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 11: home the gold on the anniversary of Marical on Ice.

215
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 11: My better of the weekend was what it meant for

216
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 11: hockey as a whole in this country. Uh, these men's

217
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 11: and women's teams are going to inspired entire generation of

218
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 11: young players across this country. And I must say Mike

219
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,719
Speaker 11: Tarico's message after the game said it best. Uh, these

220
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 11: teams are going to make these kids want to pick

221
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 11: up a stick and play. Just such a good weekend

222
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 11: for the sport of hockey in this country. I'm the

223
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 11: hockey player myself VP. I grew up watching the Red

224
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 11: Wigs dominate the nineties, which inspired so many kids here

225
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 11: in Michigan to play, And as a Michigan I couldn't

226
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 11: be prouder of how well our state was represented. Yeh

227
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 11: bark and help the Hughes brothers, Megan Teller. The list

228
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 11: goes on. Just incredible. But my bestest of the weekend

229
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 11: by far was the moment where the whole team huddle

230
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 11: around with Goodreau's jersey for the winning photo and it's

231
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 11: with this kids out there on the ice. Such a

232
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 11: tragic story, but that's the moment that his family will

233
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 11: cherish forever. I still get goosebumps thinking about it. To

234
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 11: free Bird and thanks take for taking my call.

235
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was their theme song, was Freebird, but Johnny

236
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 2: Hockey and they had his jersey there, his parents were there,

237
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 2: and it kind of came out of nowhere. It was

238
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 2: like wow. And then they were carrying his jersey around

239
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 2: the ice. They brought the kids out on the ice

240
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: and he and his brother were tragically killed by a

241
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 2: driver who might have been drunk. And it was just

242
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 2: well done. It was just well done my team USA. Yeah, Pauling, Like.

243
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 10: You said, it felt like a movie playing out at

244
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 10: ten am in the morning when you're watching it, and

245
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 10: it was so emotional and all the players, the production Tarico,

246
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 10: it was. It's a kind of sporting event that stayed

247
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 10: with you twenty four hours later. It's like hanging over.

248
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: You Russell and Philly. Hey, Russ, what's on your mind?

249
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 5: I was going there third time, long time sixty one

250
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 5: a salt Tech. So my best is obviously US Men's hockey.

251
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 5: I was watching that. I got up early to watch it.

252
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 5: The huge boys represented well. My better is Max and

253
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 5: don't over my man the other night with thirty nine

254
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 5: points to fill the game. And my worst is this

255
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 5: twelve mis of the snow I'm currently showing in my guaradway.

Speaker 2: what's the poll question for hour two? Yeah, we got

279
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 2: two of them up there right now.

280
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 9: Which would you rather win gold medal at the Olympics

281
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 9: or the Stanley Cup? Right now? The gold medal has

282
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 9: about fifty eight percent of that vote. And then whose

283
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 9: career would you want related to US hockey wins? This

284
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 9: is from Paul Jack Hughes Al Michaels or Kurt Russell.

285
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,920
Speaker 9: Jack Hughes has forty four percent of that vote, but

286
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 9: Al Michael's coming in with forty that's pretty good.

287
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 2: And Kurt Russell played Herb Brooks in the movie, not

288
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 2: performing as well. Okay, but that's okay. Maybe they forgot

289
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 2: that he is, you know Herb Brooks in the movie.

290
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 10: Yes, Paul, they're all three intertwined with great sports Olympic moments.

291
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 10: But what great career is all three? Jack Hughes a

292
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 10: long way to go, but off to a great start.

293
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 10: I think he's twenty four years old.

294
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 2: Well what if I put a michaeh Rouzioni in there?

295
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 2: Oh instead of Kurt Russell. So you had al Michaels

296
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: mikeeh Rouzioni or you had Jack.

297
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 4: Hughes, Kurt Russell his great career.

298
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, great career. But you know we're putting him in

299
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 2: there because he portrayed Herb Brooks in the movie.

300
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 10: Yes, my wife asked me an Olympic question. I want

301
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 10: to pass it on to you. She was talking. She

302
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 10: asked me who the coach was at the USA Olympic

303
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 10: hockey team, the men's and the women's. She goes they

304
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 10: get medals, right, And I'm like, no, they don't get medals.

305
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 4: She goes, that's not fair.

306
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 10: They're the coach of the team.

307
00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 2: Yep, is that fair. I would have hope that they

308
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 2: would have gotten medals because I remember asking Mike Kruyzewski

309
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 2: and uh, he said, you know, I'm not the one playing,

310
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 2: but he said, you're the one coaching. I mean, I

311
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 2: don't know. Do we do that for every sport? Should we?

312
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 7: Well?

313
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 2: I don't know what other sport is handing out medals

314
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 2: like that where you would be part of the ceremony

315
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 2: where they put something around your neck. You know, I

316
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 2: get it. Where like you know, these coaches, certainly hockey coaches,

317
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 2: they're like, no, let them celebrate.

318
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 3: Yes, Tom, hey, but you're the gold medal winning coach,

319
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 3: just like you're the national champion coach or the you're

320
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 3: the super Bowl coach of the World Series.

321
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,479
Speaker 4: It should be for everything, including the Olympics.

322
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 3: I don't know why they have to be unique with

323
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,199
Speaker 3: the medals that you can't get a medal for the

324
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 3: head coach.

325
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 2: Well, I'm the assistant, okay, but should the gymnastics coach

326
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 2: get a medal?

327
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 4: Why not?

328
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 3: We got all coaches all, not every assistant and trainer,

329
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 3: but like at least the head coach or the whoe

330
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 3: is considered the person in.

331
00:17:55,840 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 2: Charge in team events. Yeah not individual Yeah okay, like

332
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 2: Bella Coroli, he wasn't the coach. He just coached a

333
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 2: lot of those girls.

334
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 4: Yet I feel like he should get a gold nose.

335
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 2: Should little basketball here? The Celtics beat the Lakers to

336
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 2: sweep the season series. There have been three sweeps in

337
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 2: the last ten years with the Celtics and Lakers, all

338
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: by Boston. The last time the Lakers swept the seasonal

339
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 2: series with the Celtics is twenty thirteen, twenty fourteen.

340
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 12: Cow Stana Day, Stannaaday, Stantata Day, Stannada Day.

341
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 4: This is the Stanna the Day.

342
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 2: Scata today, not you buy Benini America the official trading

343
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 2: cards of the DP show. I'm watching Jalen Brown and

344
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 2: he's been carrying the Celtics. He's had an unbelievable year

345
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,640
Speaker 2: without Jason Tatum, and I hold at the Super Bowl

346
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 2: by somebody who I consider knowledgeable on the Celtics saying

347
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 2: that he probably would target the end of the month,

348
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 2: the end of February for Jason Tatum to come back now.

349
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 2: I don't know what his timeframe is, but this is

350
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,679
Speaker 2: what was told to me at the Super Bowl earlier

351
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 2: this month, that they would be targeting maybe the end

352
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 2: of February for Jason Tatum. But Jalen Brown and I

353
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 2: came in and I wanted to know where DraftKings had

354
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 2: him for the MVP. SGA is the big favorite. Then

355
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 2: it's Nicola jokicch then it's Kid Cunningham, and then it's

356
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 2: really a I guess it's a two man ray. I mean,

357
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 2: maybe Kid Cunningham, but SGA is minus one forty Jokers

358
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 2: plus three hundred, Kate Cunningham plus five point fifty, and

359
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: then it's Victor at plus twenty five hundred. Then it's

360
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 2: Luca at plus four thousand, same odds as Jalen Brown.

361
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 2: And I thought Jalen Brown might be up higher than

362
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 2: Luca because, you know, and Peyton Pritchard's played really well.

363
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 2: I mean, they've gotten a lot of contributions there. They're

364
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 2: the number two seed, and okay, we can talk about

365
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 2: the East, you know, not that competitive. Detroit's been great.

366
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 2: If the Knicks get some defense out of Brunson and Cat,

367
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 2: they're going to be there. In the Eastern Conference Finals. Yeah, sorry,

368
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 2: I have it. Yeah, but Jalen Brown has been great,

369
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 2: been great for the Celtics, so maybe those odds improve

370
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: just a little bit. Let's go around the room, best

371
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 2: and worst of the weekend, Todd, I'm going to start with.

372
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 4: You best of the weekend.

373
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 3: After trailing thirty three to ten on Sally and Westwood,

374
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 3: the Bruins battled back against tenth rank Illinois won in

375
00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 3: overtime ninety five ninety.

376
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 4: Four and a buzzer beating layup. How about those UCLA

377
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 4: Bruins Worst of the weekend?

378
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 3: Also Sally, Sacramento falls to San Antonio one thirty nine

379
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 3: twenty two.

380
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 4: Spurs made it eight straight wins. Your tanking kings. Sixteen

381
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 4: straight loss is not good.

382
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, they shut down Sibonis and Levine, so they're they're

383
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 2: done for the year. Commissioner has got some work to

384
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 2: do in the off season here. This is gonna be

385
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 2: a busy off season for him to try to figure

386
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 2: out this tanking because these teams are going what's five

387
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars to us? Who cares if we get

388
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 2: a great draft pick, and we'll talk about tanking coming

389
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 2: up because there's a lot of different things that are

390
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 2: on the table now, and we'll kind of, you know,

391
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 2: sift through of what could be a good idea or

392
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 2: what is a bad idea.

393
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 9: Saton Best and worst. My best of the weekend. Johannes

394
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 9: Clabo of Norway is a cross country skier. He entered

395
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 9: six events and won six goals. That's as I think,

396
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 9: that's about as good as you could do in the Olympics. Yeah,

397
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 9: am I Unfortunately. Worst of the weekend. Britney Bow of

398
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,400
Speaker 9: the US. She was a speed skater. She had three

399
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 9: straight fourth place finishes. That's tough and it's probably her

400
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,439
Speaker 9: last Olympics, I think. But man, you go three straight

401
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 9: races and you finish in fourth of each of those.

402
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 9: Dang man, that's unfortunate. Yeah, Marvin Best and Worst.

403
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 8: Best of the weekend BYU freshman aj Debanta twenty nine points,

404
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 8: ten rebounds, nine assists, and he played all forty minutes

405
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 8: as they upset number six ranked Iowa State O the

406
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 8: best of the weekend. I watched Miracle for the first

407
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 8: time yesterday, got a lot of pride and I was like,

408
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 8: you know what showed my son? You know, let's watch

409
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,120
Speaker 8: Miracle together. For the first time, really really good.

410
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 2: Why did it take you this long to get around

411
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 2: to watching it?

412
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 8: Because I wasn't watching it.

413
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 2: I just wasn't interested. Did you know the ending?

414
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 4: I did?

415
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 8: Okay, my wife and my son they did not. They

416
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 8: didn't know that it wasn't the gold medal game against

417
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,879
Speaker 8: the Soviet I know, everyone's like, all right, look and

418
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 8: they were like and then they won the gold medal

419
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 8: and they're like, what do you mean we thought this

420
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 8: is the gold medal game because the entire movie was

421
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 8: leading up to beating the Soviet Union. I was like, nope,

422
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 8: if they lost that game, do you believe in miracles

423
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 8: just for a silver medal?

424
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:16,560
Speaker 2: Yes?

425
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 10: Paul A couple of best of the weekend Alpine skiing

426
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,120
Speaker 10: women slalom Mikayla Schiffrin, she celebrates like a gold medalist.

427
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 10: She had a good time after her her win. And

428
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 10: then USA Speed's getting Jordan Stoles two goals. That guy's

429
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 10: a killer.

430
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he had two golds in a silver maybe,

431
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: but yeah, you know, there there's always these names that

432
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 2: come out, they surface that you don't expect. I mean,

433
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 2: that's the beauty of the Olympics, is you know, And

434
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 2: the pressure that's on when you're favored to win a gold.

435
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 2: It's nice to be that good that your favor to

436
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 2: win a gold, but I'd hate to have that pressure

437
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 2: that you know you gotta win. And even if you

438
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,719
Speaker 2: do win, can you really truly celebrate the way others,

439
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 2: you know, when they win a gold medal or any metal,

440
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 2: it's well, you're supposed to win. And I think you

441
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 2: saw that in men's figure skating. The pressure was enormous

442
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 2: and the quad God talked about it, and he knew it.

443
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 2: He knew it going in and that was, you know,

444
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 2: a shamed to see when you put in all of

445
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 2: that effort, your parents and all of that money to

446
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 2: get you to that point. And then you follow a

447
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 2: couple of times, Uh, Brian in South Carolina? Hi, Bry,

448
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 2: what's on your mind?

449

Speaker 7: How you doing?

450
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:38,960

Speaker 7: A longtime? Third time I listened to you growing up

452
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,919

453
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 7: said something about forty six years since.

454
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 2: The last time, I was like, God, I'm old.

455
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 7: It didn't seem that long ago, but forty six years

456
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 7: is a long time.

457
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

458
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 7: Best to the Weekend Mick uh not McK corona, but

459
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 7: the USA hockey. But worst of the weekend is Mick

462
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 7: was talking to his kids after being down about I

463
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,520

Speaker 7: And the curling coverage every time I turned it on,

467
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 7: it is either on USA or MB's. I mean curling

468
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 7: was I don't know. It's like cricket, the long sessions.

469
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 7: In cricket, they have three day matches. Sometimes it's just

470
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 7: tough to watch.

471
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I enjoyed it, Yeah I did. If you just

472
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 2: want something on in the background, I thought curling was great,

473
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 2: have that on in the background. Uh yeah, Mick Cronin.

474
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 2: These coaches who embarrassed themselves on the sidelines being demonstrative

475
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 2: throwing things. You're supposed to be the one who has decorum.

476
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 4: You're not the kid.

477
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,959
Speaker 2: You're the one that's supposed to be able to make

478
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,119
Speaker 2: and not fly off the handle and not be immature.

479
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 2: McK cronin's fifty four years of age. Like, at some

480
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 2: point you have to look at yourself and say, how

481
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 2: could I ever criticize my players. If I act this way,

482
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 2: react this way. Same with Bob Knight. You know when

483
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 2: coach Knight would be talking about his players, you know,

484
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: telling them to have composure and settled, and he's going crazy.

485
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 2: And I never understood that that I as a coach,

486
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 2: I'm the one that has to be under control. And

487
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 2: Mick Cronan throwing out one of his players. Okay, I

488
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 2: understood it. He does like attention, and then you have

489
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 2: a press conference and then you're dressing down somebody. I

490
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 2: just don't have time for it. I find these people

491
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 2: very boring that they want. You know, look, I've criticized

492
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 2: Danny Hurley, but he knows that he's trying to fix that. Slowly,

493
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,360
Speaker 2: but he's he's trying. At least he gets a couple

494
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 2: of national championships out of this. But I'm watching these

495
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,439
Speaker 2: coaches and it. You know, they get all fired up

496
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 2: in the face of an official a player, and you're

497
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:22,359
Speaker 2: the one that has to have composure and you and

498
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 2: you don't have it. It's like Doug Gottlieb. Doug at

499
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,719
Speaker 2: his press conference, he's slamming the table and he's yelling,

500
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 2: and I'm going I know, you're upset, but act like

501
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 2: a professional. Act, act like a coach. You're you know,

502
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 2: these temper tantrums. I'm gonna kick something, I'm gonna throw something.

503
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,879
Speaker 2: I think this is the anniversary of Bob Knight throwing

504
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 2: a chair in a game against Purdue. Uh might have

505
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: been made. I think it was on this day where

506
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 2: you're going, what are you doing? Yes, Todd?

507
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 3: And if any of that has done theatrically to scare

508
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,959
Speaker 3: intimidate your players, is that really what your players are

509
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 3: out their best when they're totally petrified of you and

510
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 3: that they're going to miss a shot or they're gonna

511
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 3: miss a block.

512
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 4: I don't know how that brings the best out of

513
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 4: any player.

514
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 2: I agree, I want to get your attention, But you know,

515
00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 2: do I have to have history onics here? Do I

516
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:23,880
Speaker 2: have to put on a show? And that's what's odd

517
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 2: to see with some of these These are grown men

518
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 2: who were doing this silly stuff. You signed up for this.

519
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 2: You can't go, man, I didn't know these kids were,

520
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,959
Speaker 2: you know, gonna be doing stupid stuff. That doesn't mean

521
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 2: you can do stupid stuff.

522
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, as you know what, it's a professional environment, or

523
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 9: at least the person in charge is making millions of

524
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 9: dollars where you know. I mean, college sports is actually

525
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 9: a professional environment, whether we want to call it that

526
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 9: or not. I can almost understand it, although I think

527
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 9: it's embarrassing. It is though when you get into like

528
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 9: high school, middle school, younger kids that coaches are screaming

529
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 9: at and it's like, dude, you're talking to I can

530
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 9: remember at my son having a coach RelA calm down,

531
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 9: and I'm like, dude, you're screaming that at nine year olds.

532
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 9: You're a grown ass man losing your stuff. Yeah, dude, chill, yeah.

533
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 2: Pol.

534
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 10: I saw Danny Hurley of yu kon just the other

535
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 10: day at a press conference, and he swore and he

536
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 10: tried to catch himself. He goes, I was giving up

537
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 10: sugar and swearing for lent.

538
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 2: Oh well, still giving up sugar. Uh, Chad and Charlotte,

539

Speaker 6: Oh yeah?

541
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 2: Five?

542
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 6: I would get my best is for the weekend. USA

543
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 6: Hockey all the way. Miss Megan Keller with the winning goal,

544
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 6: did a tremendous move on the Canadian defender. Gotta give

545
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 6: her prompts for that. My man taking the stick to

546
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 6: the faith and hitting the game winner. Nothing nothing says

547
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 6: hockey like that, and the Hello Bugs block in the

548
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 6: third period. It got me thinking, like, what is the

549
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 6: most memorable What is y'all's most memorable defensive moments in sports?

550
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 7: That one has to be up there for me.

551
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 6: The Lebron did on Ibodala is one for me. The

552
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 6: Michael Jordan's still in the ball from from Carl Malone

553
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 6: in that final game, and Malcolm Butler with the intersection.

554
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 6: I just wanted to hear some of y'all's most memorable

555
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 6: defensive moments sports history.

556
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 2: Well, I would say Malcolm Butler. I mean having been

557
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 2: right there, you know, twenty five yards away to see

558
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 2: it happen, and it won a Super Bowl, So I

559
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 2: would say that that moment. I mean, Lebron's chased down

560
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 2: of Andrea Gudala is a wonderful plague. People forget the

561
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan's strip of Karl Malone because he came down

562
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 2: and then hit the game winning shot that won the championship.

563
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 2: But there have been a lot of incredible defense it plays.

564
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 2: But I would say Malcolm Butler. David in Phoenix, Hi David,

565
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 2: what's on your mind?

566
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 5: Hey?

567
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 4: Good morning, Dan.

568
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 13: A couple worst than couple best. The worst is Sidney

569
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 13: Crosby being hurt being a Pittsburgh Penguin fan, like.

570
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 7: To see what happens in the long run.

571
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 13: There another Pittsburgh thing, Bill Mazerowski passed away. The best

572
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 13: was USA hockey as well as I got to see

573
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 13: Lady Gaga about a week and a half ago.

574
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: Okay, how was Lady Gaga?

575
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 13: We laughed, we cried, we danced good.

576
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 7: I love it.

577
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 2: Yeah.

578
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 9: See, I'm wondering if, sort of to our poll question,

579
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 9: do you think if it was a Stanley Cup Final,

580
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 9: Sidney Crosby would have missed the game.

581
00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 2: I'm not aware of the severity of the injury. I

582
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 2: know that I saw quotes where he said he thought

583
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 2: he could go. That might have been a situation where like,

584
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 2: you don't want to hurt your team. We get caught

585
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 2: up in Willis Reid came out and he had a

586
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 2: couple of jumpers and well he didn't stay on the floor,

587
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 2: but he came out and gave you that emotional lift.

588
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 2: You know, Kurt Gibson hits the home run, but it's

589
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 2: not like you were going to have him play the field,

590
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: and like he had one moment there that you could

591
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 2: use him for I don't know if there's a moment

592
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: for Sidney Crosby where you could have had him come out,

593
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 2: maybe give you an emotional lift. But you had so

594
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 2: much talent on that team it didn't feel like you

595
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 2: needed Sidney Crosby.

596
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 7: Yeah.

597
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't know if he would have impacted the game,

598
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 9: But just from what's more important to a player, I

599
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 9: have a hard time thinking that if it was the

600
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 9: Stanley Cup and he was able to make the call,

601
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 9: he would say, Hmmm, I think somebody else is better

602
00:32:58,840 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 9: out there than me tonight.

603
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 2: Well, that would be up to the coach to go.

604
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: Is somebody going to be better than him? But do

605
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 2: I think if it's the Stanley Cup Final that Sidney

606
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 2: would at least give it a go. Yeah?

607
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 7: I do.

608
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean it's really rare when those guys don't play.

609
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 9: And what I'm reading here is his decision, not the coaches.

610
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:19,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

611
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 9: I have a hard time thinking he wouldn't play.

612
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the number of times when these guys get

613
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 2: stitched up and come back, and I mean Jack Hughes

614
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 2: loses a couple of teeth.

615
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 9: I don't even know if he came off the ice

616
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 9: after that.

617
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 2: I think he just got up and started skating again, Like,

618
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 2: I don't know how that beer felt on his teeth

619
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 2: when he's drinking something that cold after you get your

620
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: teeth chipped.

621
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 3: Yes, time, well I could think of besides the fact

622
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 3: that I can't ice game, have very little to no

623
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 3: athletic ability, I.

624
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 4: Would be like, oh my god, I got to go

625
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 4: to the dentist right away, I'm bleeding. What's my teeth.

626
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 3: I would have gone such a panic forget about actually

627
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 3: getting back on the ice anytimes.

628
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 4: I probably quit hockey at that point.

629
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 2: Anyway, would you give up a couple of teeth for

630
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 2: a gold medal?

631
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 4: I would, but I would not like it very much.

632
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 4: But for the gold medal spe so.

633
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 2: You, oh, you wouldn't like losing teeth.

634
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 3: I think that would be if you have that moment

635
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 3: where you got the picture of your missing teeth and

636
00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 3: the gold medal and you got the winning goal, that's great.

637
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 3: But in general, I'm not looking to play anything that's

638
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 3: going to knock my teeth out.

639
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll take a break. The NFL Combine

640
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 2: coming up later on this week. Is this the last

641
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 2: time it's in Indianapolis? Are they moving it around or

642
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 2: as there was talk about that, wasn't there that they

643
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 2: were going to allow other cities to do the combine.

644
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 2: I gotta believe Jerry Jones would be like, well, we

645
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: want to have it here in Dallas, yes, PAULI.

646
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 10: They announced that the combine would remain in Indy in

647
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 10: twenty six. Obviously twenty seven and twenty eight.

648
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll talk about tanking. The commissioner talked

649
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 2: about tanking and the possible solutions as well.

650
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,359
Speaker 1: We're back after this. Fox Sports Radio has the best

655
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 1: of them up there right now. Which would you rather

656
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: win the Stanley Cup or a gold medal? The gold

657
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: medal has still about fifty eight to fifty nine percent

658
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 1: of that vote. And whose career would you want? Kurt Russell,

659
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: Alan Michaels or Jack Hughes. Jack Hughes and Al Michaels

660
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: is very close, very close to a tie. Jack Hughes

661
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: just barely edging Albino out by about a point and

662
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: a half.

663
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 2: Now I'll ask Gol that question coming up next hour.

664
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 2: The tanking topic was the topic of conversation at the

665
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 2: All Star Game. I think the first question the commissioner

666
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: got had to do with tanking. He's got a real

667
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:54,400
Speaker 2: problem because these teams are overt, they're blatant. And somebody

668
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 2: brought this up because when I was growing up, there

669
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: used to be a territorial draft where players who played

670
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 2: at the University of Cincinnati would play for the Cincinnati Royals.

671
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 2: Oscar Robertson played at Cincinnati and therefore he went to

672
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati Royals. Bob Coosey played at Holy Cross, he

673
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: went to the Boston Celtics. So you had a territorial draft.

674
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 2: And somebody brought this up. Could we get rid of

675
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 2: the draft as we know it and tanking and have

676
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 2: a territorial draft. Well, let me pose this to you

677
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 2: and why it would never work. Let's say aj Debanza,

678
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 2: who might be the number one player in the country,

679
00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 2: he plays at BYU. Well, then he would go to Utah.

680
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,319
Speaker 2: He'd play for the Utah Jazz. So what would stop

681
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 2: the Utah Jazz from saying to BYU. We're going to

682
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 2: give you as much money as you need for NIL

683
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,800
Speaker 2: to bring in the best players in the country, because

684
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 2: we will get them on the Utah Jazz. You could

685
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 2: have a collective helping BYU, which would allow that player

686
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 2: or players to then go to the Utah Jazz. So

687
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 2: it wouldn't work because you would get professional teams who

688
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 2: could then help finance college teams. So those players would

689
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 2: then have to go to you know, the team that

690
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 2: was in their city. The territorial Draft, Yes, Martin.

691
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 8: The Charlotte Hornets would benefit greatly from that. Yeah, get

692
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,440
Speaker 8: all those guys from Duke in North Carolina.

693
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, they get too many players. But you know, Territorial

694
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 2: Draft while you know, I guess it worked back in

695
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 2: the sixties, but it can't work now. Just too much

696
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 2: money at stake for these teams NIL. And then all

697
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 2: of a sudden, Aj Debnsa is on the Utah Jazz

698
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 2: just because he went to BYU. But people proposed that

699
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 2: there's there's just so many What if everybody's in the lottery.

700
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:09,920
Speaker 2: What if your picks aren't protected, every team has the

701
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 2: same odds. That's been brought up. What if and this

702
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 2: is something I brought up to the commissioner, and that

703
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 2: is after your team is eliminated, the wins that you

704
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 2: get by being competitive will help increase your odds in

705
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 2: the lottery. Therefore, you're not shutting down Zach Levine and

706
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: some bonus if you're Sacramento or you would like for

707
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 2: them to be able to play. But also understand this

708
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,320
Speaker 2: with these players, the players, you know, you're going to

709
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,479
Speaker 2: be bringing in somebody who's going to take somebody's place

710
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 2: on that team, and you know, getting everybody to have

711
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 2: a common goal that's challenging here. But there's so many

712
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: different facets attached to this that I just I don't

713
00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 2: know if there is a is they are a soft

714
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 2: landing spot for this topic where everybody is going to

715
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 2: be satisfied, And I don't think that's going to be

716
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 2: the case. And you know, even if ratings go down,

717
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 2: understand they're in the midst of what a ten or

718
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 2: eleven year deal worth billions of dollars. These players, they

719
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 2: don't care what's happening in ten years from now or

720
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 2: the ratings go down. You got all this money there.

721
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,320
Speaker 2: The commissioner and the owners are the ones who have

722
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 2: a problem here now. The players. Players are going to, Hey,

723
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to play fifty five games and maybe extend

724
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 2: my career by two extra years and maybe make an

725
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:45,399
Speaker 2: extra forty million dollars. So I don't know if there's

726
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 2: a oh, okay that makes the most sense. I don't

727
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 2: know if there's that moment yes, hud.

728
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 3: And what if the team is really trying and they're

729
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,400
Speaker 3: just not good enough and you want to have parody,

730
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 3: But this team that's actually not tanking, they just don't

731
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 3: have a good enough roster and now they have the

732
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 3: equal chance of getting the top picks as the better

733
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 3: teams than Where does that leave you in terms of

734
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 3: trying to make teams more equitable or have a chance

735
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 3: in the next couple of years to win a title

736
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:09,840
Speaker 3: like the NFL tries to do.

737
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're looking at lottery odds allocated based on two

738
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 2: year records. Lottery extended to include playing teams, flatten the

739
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 2: odds for all lottery teams. No longer allowing a team

740
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,720
Speaker 2: to pick in the top four in consecutive years. Teams

741
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,239
Speaker 2: can't pick in the top four the year after making

742
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:35,720
Speaker 2: the conference. Fine, they're just throwing out as anything and everything.

743
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 9: Yeah, see it sounds a lot like how HBO determines

744
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 9: the Hard Knocks team. Well, you have to do this,

745
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 9: but you can have done it in the last four years.

746
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:44,800
Speaker 2: But then you have to have a bad run. But

747
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,720
Speaker 2: you have to won this. Yeah, it's a big problem,

748
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,800
Speaker 2: big problem. Final hour on the way on this Monday,

749
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 2: more of your phone calls, best and worst of the weekend,

750
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 2: and we'll talk to Al Michaels right after this
