1
00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: You're listening for draft cads, not work.

2
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 2: God bless football, Mikey A.

3
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,760
Speaker 1: I'm blessed football, Stu Gotts, thank you.

4
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: Adam Schefter going to join us here coming up in

5
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 2: a few minutes. He's at a charity event the Knicks

6
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: are going on. I don't think he cares about the NFL.

7
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 2: I'm not even certain he cares about his family right now.

8
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 2: I think he only cares about the Knicks.

9
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 3: I mean, they haven't been here in what twenty five years?

10
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: I get it.

11
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a while. And by the way I

12
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 2: said on the main show, I'll say it again, Reggie Miller,

13
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: do not insert yourself into this series. Don't need it,

14
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 2: don't want it. No one cares. It happened thirty years ago.

15
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 2: They've been a thirty for thirty over it. I mean enough,

16
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: I don't need to hear about Reggie Miller, Dale, Davis Antonio, Davis,

17
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: Rick Smith's Hayward workmen, or anybody anyone associated with those teams.

18
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: Don't need to hear it before we get to some

19
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 2: NFL news. And Adam Schefter, who's going to join us

20
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: in a little bit, please do it. As a favorite.

21
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 2: We have mentioned this a couple of times the last

22
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 2: few weeks. We own this property now, so subscribe, rate

23
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: and review. Do it for me, do it more importantly

24
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 2: for Billy Gill, do it more importantly for Mikeya, But

25
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: most importantly, do it for their children, because if you

26
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: don't do it, they're not going to eat, said Mikey.

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 2: What's going on? Schefter had a report this morning.

28
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: Right, he did, so, Apparently the owners are going to

29
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: be voting later about if NFL players should be allowed

30
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,039
Speaker 3: to participate in the new Olympic sport flag football.

31
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 2: Okay, wait, so before you finish this, let me just

32
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: ask you a question. Okay, if you were an NFL owner,

33
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: would you want one of your players participating?

34
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: Of course you wouldn't.

35
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 3: You don't want them doing anything but sitting in a

36
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 3: hyperbaric CHAMBERWL off season. But at the same time, i mean,

37
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 3: you kind of you kind of look bad if you

38
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: won't let them compete for their country. So it's it's

39
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: it's it's a bad look and I'm sure begrudgingly it's

40
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 3: gonna get voted through. And that Chefter's report that he

41
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 3: doesn't think it's uh that it's gonna pass. With flying colors,

42
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: so NFL players will be allowed to participate in flag

43
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: football in the twenty twenty eight Olympics in Los Angeles.

44
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 2: Do we have a coach yet? Do we know who's

45
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 2: coaching the flag football team? I cool, because flag football sport.

46
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 2: It's a totally different sport. It's a sport where I

47
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: don't want Joe Burrow, That's what it is.

48
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 3: I would love to see a team full of absolute

49
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: superstars from the NFL. And we should pick a team

50
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 3: and then have like Joe Schmoe from from Oxford, Mississippi

51
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 3: be their coach. Same guy you've never heard of because

52
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 3: he's he's the best flag football coach in the country and.

53
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 1: You've never heard of him.

54
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: Do you think guys like Burrow and Josh Allen? Because again, people,

55
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 2: this is a completely different sport flag football, tackle football,

56
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: totally different sport NFL tackle football. I want Josh Allen

57
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: to be my quarterback flag football. I want nothing to

58
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: do with Josh Allen. He runs too tall, he runs

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 2: to he runs.

60
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, it's he's he's an easy he's an.

61
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: Easy target in flag football.

62
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 2: He really is.

63
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:23,679
Speaker 4: No.

64
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 2: But I'm wondering the reason I'm asking about the coach

65
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 2: is who is the coach that's gonna have the balls

66
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: to keep Hallett Burrow or Mahomes on the team. I mean,

67
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 2: because you know Mahomes once in.

68
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 3: I mean, but is Mahomes not a guy you would take?

69
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know.

70
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: I think there's better options.

71
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 3: I do, But at the same time, it'd be hard

72
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 3: to tell Patrick Mahomes not this time, Champ No.

73
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 2: Right, I understand. That's why I hope the coach is

74
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: Andy Reid.

75
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 3: I think the Chiefs would do just fine in flag football.

76
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 3: I think the Chiefs would do just fine. Do you Yeah?

77
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 3: Maybe Kelsey, Yeah, maybe Kelsey. Get him out of there.

78
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 2: Mahomes will be fine. He would not be my top

79
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 2: choice for a for a flag football, you need a

80
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: guy who runs with his arms close to his side

81
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 2: so he's protecting the flags. I'll try to think of

82
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 2: the guys. All right, we're gonna draft a team. Let's draft.

83
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: Let's do it.

84
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 2: What shifter comes on? So we're gonna do so how

85
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: many teams? How many players are on a roster?

86
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 3: Do we know it's it's twelve players per roster, but

87
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 3: you start five five of them play at a time.

88
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 2: So why don't we pick a starting five, each of.

89
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: Us starting five?

90
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 2: Is this?

91
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: Now we're all time?

92
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 4: Oh?

93
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: All time? That changes the game?

94
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: It does?

95
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 3: I mean, all right, let's do now, and then we

96
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 3: can think about doing one all time and you get

97
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 3: that guy at the peak, at his peak.

98
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 2: At the peak of his powers. Yes, all right, all right,

99
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 2: all right? So do you want to go first?

100
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: Here?

101
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 2: Adam Schefter again, get to join us from a charity

102
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 2: events to talk Nicks coming up here in a couple

103
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 2: of minutes. God bless football anyway to you? Do you

104
00:04:59,160 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: want to go first?

105
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 3: I'll go first because I'm gonna take Lamar Jackson because

106
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 3: I don't think there's a better quarterback in today's NFL

107
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 3: better suited for flag football than him.

108
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 2: All right, because you want your quarterback to run, obviously

109
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 2: you want to want to.

110
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:14,679
Speaker 1: You can make every throw.

111
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's shifty, he's shifting, that guy.

112
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: He can make every throw except the ones he has

113
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 2: to make in the postseason.

114
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: Sure, but this isn't the postseason. It's the Olympics. The Olympics.

115
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 2: More pressure now, not just your city is going to

116
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 2: be disappointed in you, the entire country. Yes, okay, so

117
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: you're taking Lamar. It's a good choice. It's a logical choice.

118
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take someone here. See, this is the deal

119
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 2: with fantasy football. If Andy Reid was a coach, he'd

120
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 2: be lying to you, okay, if he was the coach

121
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 2: of the United States Flag football team, he'd be lying

122
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: through his teeth if he told you that Patrick Mahomes

123
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: was a better option than Kyler Murray.

124
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: Wow, Kyler Murray. But see, you're you're you're not playing

125
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 1: the game right. You're not playing the game right. Okay, listen,

126
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: You're gonna take Kyler Murray, and that's a fantastic pick.

127
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: But I already have my quarterback. You got to go

128
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 2: take something I don't have. Oh that's right, because you're

129
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 2: not gonna take a quarter.

130
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: I'm not taking a second quarter. Oh I like it.

131
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: Why are you doing this? You're a terrible coach.

132
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: I love the integrity of the game.

133
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 2: No, because I think it's positionless. If you wanted to

134
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 2: take Kyler Murray next, you could have just put him

135
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: at running back, couldn't you.

136
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 1: I guess I could.

137
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 2: I would. I'm taking I could. I'm taking Kyler Murray. Okay,

138
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: So I appreciate your friendship. Taking Kyler Murray. Okay, that's

139
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: my guy. All right, I'm not taking Kyler Murray. I

140
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 2: take it.

141
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: Well, you have another pick. You have Kyler Murray and

142
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: somebody else.

143
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 2: Go no, no, listen, I'm gonna take somebody else. And

144
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 2: if you take Kyler Murray after this, I'm gonna punch

145
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 2: you in the face.

146
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: To take him, just because you're doing this.

147
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: I'm taking Travis Hunter. Okay, that's it. I'm taking.

148
00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: That's a great pick.

149
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 3: That's a great pick because you do need people to

150
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 3: cover on defense and he can do both.

151
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: Yes, uh, all right, I will.

152
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 2: Take Kyler Murray. You're gonna do it.

153
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: I really want to, but I'm not going to.

154
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 3: Instead, I'm gonna take Kyler Murray.

155
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: Now give me, give me Jamar Chase.

156
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: All right, you're taking Chase. So you have I have Kyle,

157
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,920

Speaker 1: Give me Christian McCaffrey.

168
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 3: Nobody's better at catching the ball out of the backfield.

169
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 3: He's shifty, he's quick. Give me Christian McCaffrey.

170
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I'm surprised you didn't take Justin Fields.

00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: I have the better version already you.

172
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: Did, Yes, you do. Wow. I have to change my

173
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 2: strategy here because I too, was going to take Christian

174
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 2: McCaffrey in this fake, ridiculous ball draft that we're doing.

175
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 2: Uh and so oh running back for the Lions, Gibbs.

176
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 2: I want him.

177
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: It's a great pick. It's a great pick.

178
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 3: I think I'm going to stay with the Lions, and

179
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take i'm on Ross Saint Brown.

180
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: It was on my list. I mean, you're killing me

181
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 2: right now.

182
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna take i'm on Ross Saint Brown.

183
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: That's a good pick. Wide.

184
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 3: I have four guys. I have a quarterback, a running back,

185
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 3: and two wide receivers. My last pick can be any position.

186
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 2: Well, okay, me second here, just your second slow down,

187
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna take Saquon Barkley. How about that

188
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 2: that is that it's a good pick.

189
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's a fantastic like I'm wondering

190
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 3: if Kenneth Gainwell isn't a better flag football player.

191
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: Nobody loves him. All right.

192
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 2: My last pick, Well, that's such a great point by you,

193
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 2: because I'm not sure that Chuba Hubbard isn't a better player.

194
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: It might be, it might be it's hard to tackle him.

195
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: Listen, a fantasy football a flag football league is a

196
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 2: league where backups could be stars, I mean, be huge.

197
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: It's crazy, all right. So uh, al right, so who's

198
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 2: your last pick?

199
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: My last pick, I'm gonna go defense. I'm gonna take one.

200
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,559
Speaker 3: Of the best cover guys who tackles like it's flag football.

201
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: Give me Sauce Gardner.

202
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 2: Oh wow, all right, let's already have my cover guy,

203
00:09:58,840 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 2: Travis Hu.

204
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 3: You gotta see, Travis Hunter was such a great pick

205
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: because you can do anything.

206
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: Now, I needed somebody on the back.

207
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 2: End, right, So now I'm trying to think of I'm

208
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 2: looking at a wide receiver here. I'm tempted to say

209
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,239
Speaker 2: Land McConkie, because I think he'd be good at playing football.

210
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 2: Hunter Renfro, Redfro, Renfro never actually played football. He only

211
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 2: played flag football. Is there a tight end? There's no

212
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 2: tight ends.

213
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: No, there's no tight end. You're gonna want the lake neighbors.

214
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: I mean, Justin Jefferson is still out there.

215
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's tall man Treek Hill.

216
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: I'm so mad at myself. I had him written down

217
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: and I just ignored the name triek Hill.

218
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't care man the ball throw them the ball,

219
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 2: doesn't let him play defense.

220
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: I am so mad at myself.

221
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 2: On the field. Yes, flag football is funny. There's always

222
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 2: a guy in every group, Like every every group of

223
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 2: friends has a guy who dominates flag football, you know,

224
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 2: you know for my friends it's me. Really No, no,

225
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 2: it's not. You just wanted to throw that in.

226
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: Yes, I did play flag football.

227
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 2: I'm telling you. Back in the day, man, there was

228
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 2: this soccer player who played on a Long Island soccer

229
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,760
Speaker 2: team with us. His name was Jose Diaz, and if

230
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: you put him on quarterback on your flag football team,

231
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 2: you would have thought he was Joe Montata. I mean

232
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 2: that's how good this guy was.

233
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 1: For a minute, he was.

234
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: Jose Montana, Jo Jose.

235
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: Do you want to do an all time team?

236
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: I got some names, uh, sure, I would take care

237
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 2: Stewart as my quarterbacks that I'm pa think an understand

238
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 2: with flag football. There was a running back back in

239
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 2: the eighties for the New York Giants. His name was

240
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 2: Joe Morris. He was a great NFL player. He would

241
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: be a Hall of Fame flag football player Hall of

242
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 2: He was like five two, you know, he ran for

243
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: sixteen hundred yards. I believe one year, Eric Metcalf would

244
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 2: be another one for me. Yea, yeah, that's a good one.

245
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: Dave Meggot would be a good name.

246
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 2: Meggot, stop buying off. Megan is.

247
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 3: All right, I'm gonna take my first pick. I'm not

248
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 3: going to take the quarterback because you've already Oh.

249
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 2: You're doing this all time. We're doing five all time,

250
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 2: now five all time? All right?

251
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 3: So I took Cordell, give me Barry Sanders. Go ahead

252
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 3: and try and square that guy. Ever, try and grab

253
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 3: that guy's flag.

254
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: He's the rare guy who might be the best NFL

255
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 2: running back of all time and the best flag football

256
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 2: player of all time.

257
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 3: He teleported. You think you have him squared up, and

258
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 3: he teleported four feet to the side, and you're never

259
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:54,559
Speaker 3: grabbing that flag.

260
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,599
Speaker 2: He's the greatest I've ever seen. Man, that is a

261
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 2: good one. Who see, you can't take Marcus Allen. It's

262
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 2: more like Walter Payton. That's what you're looking for.

263
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: Shifty guys.

264
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you you said a name before, and

265
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 2: I think he might like if we went back and

266
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,360
Speaker 2: and and the NFL never started and all we have

267
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 2: is flag football and this guy played in the Flag

268
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 2: Football League, the what what we call it, the NFFL. Yes,

269
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 2: I think Dave Meggett might be the greatest player to

270
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 2: ever play in.

271
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: That's a good one. How about Danny and Tomlinson?

272
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 2: Oh, LT, that's a good one.

273
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: LT. Small, Danny Woodhead, those.

274
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 2: Are the kind of guys. Wes Welker, I gotta tell

275
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 2: you he's a current player. But Braxton Barrios would be phenomenal.

276
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: In fact, I want to put him on my team.

277
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 3: I mean, does Shawn Jackson at his height? Oh my god,

278
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 3: does Shawn Jackson? I mean DeShawn Jackson when he was

279
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 3: returning kicks.

280
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: And all that. Yeah, like the height, yeah right right,

281
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 2: you know he dropped get into the end zone. But whatever, Well,

282
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: that's fine. Dion Sanders, you take that.

283
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: Would be great.

284
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 2: Charlie Ward. Now, Charlie Ward never played in the NFL.

285
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 2: He was a quarterback of Florida State. He ended up

286
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 2: going to the next He was a backup point guard.

287
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,079
Speaker 2: He was a good point guard. He's a good player

288
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 2: in the NBA. He's the greatest college football quarterback I've

289
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 2: ever seen. Uh, But he never played in the NFL.

290
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 2: I bet you Charlie War could still do it in

291
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 2: the flag in the nffl.

292
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 3: Oh Man, I think Michael Vick's got to be your

293
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 3: your your flag football quarterback right for all time, for

294
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 3: all time.

295
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: It's got to be Michael Vick, I.

296
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 2: Would say, Vic. I mean the guys that we have Vic,

297
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 2: Cordell Stewart, Lamar Jackson, and Kyler Murray are certainly Yeah.

298
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: Do you know how hard it would be to get

299
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 2: Kyler Murray's flag?

300
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: What a ridiculous thing.

301
00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 2: What are the Olympics do it? Let's break Schefter and

Speaker 2: I have no idea. It's a great question. But he

309
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 2: like seriously the guy, he never stops working. And if

310
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 2: he's not working the NFL beat, he is working a

311
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,520

Speaker 2: you doing today, schefter.

314
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 4: Oh there's du Go's what's going on. I'm at the

315
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 4: BTIG Charity Day in New York City. The last couple

316
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 4: of years, I've hosted it and seed it and introduced

317
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 4: all the guests that have come through, and there are

318
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 4: some very distinguished people. This year I got demote it.

319
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 4: They have Johnson Phantom as the MC introduced and John Johns.

320
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 4: I quickly saw and understood why I was demoted, and

321
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 4: I just ran, just dran into Julianna Margolis and the

322
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 4: actress and we had a great conversation about the University

323
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 4: of Michigan. I didn't know that her father in law

324
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 4: was my professor at Michigan my freshman year.

325
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 2: Wow, that's because you never went the clash after I.

326
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 4: Little things like that, saying they could pick up a

327
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 4: charity day here as they make my phone ladder because

328
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 4: it's a little loudier.

329
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 2: Well, we'll only keep you briefly here. I want to

330
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 2: talk some nicks with you. But mikey A and I

331
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 2: were just discussing. We were choosing sides, we were choosing

332
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 2: our flag football team for the Olympics, and you had

333
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: the report this morning. This is going to go through.

334
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 4: Huh, this is going to go through. I expect to

335
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 4: get approved today. I'm surprised it's not approved already. It's

336
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 4: eleven am Minneapolis time. But I would imagine the will

337
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 4: be approved in short order and NFL players will be

338
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 4: eligibly to play flag football at twenty twenty eight Oenics.

339
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 2: If you were an owner of an NFL team, would

340
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 2: you want your player playing flag football in the Olympics.

341
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 4: You know, here's what I would say to that. First

342
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 4: of all, you have to understand that the NFL is

343
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 4: all about now growing the brand internationally. Seven regular season games.

344
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 4: If and when the league gets to eighteen games, I

345
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 4: imagine they're going to carve out a sixteen game international

346
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 4: schedule that they'll sell off to another network for another

347
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 4: couple of billion dollars At that point in time, would

348
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 4: I want my player? First of all, only one player

349
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 4: per team is going to play. And secondly, it's flag football. Like,

350
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 4: there are NBA players that play entire Olympics series and

351
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 4: they don't get hurt. So are we going to worry

352
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 4: about a guy playing flag football? Now, at some point

353
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 4: somebody's gonna get hurt. Probably probably is gonna happen. But look,

354
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 4: the league is really into growing the brand internationally and

355
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 4: this is all part of it that everybody has got

356
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 4: to chip in and make it happen.

357
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 2: Chef, there any idea of like who the heck coach

358
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 2: is gonna be of this flag football team? Because we

359
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 2: were laughing at the idea because this is a league

360
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 2: flag football and tackle football two totally different sports. This

361
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 2: is a league where I don't want Joe Burrow. He

362
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: runs to tall, you know, and he's not fast. So

363
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: I'm wondering who the coaches because if it's Andy Reid,

364
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 2: he's not gonna take my home. So he's gonna take

365
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 2: Kyler Burray.

366
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 4: You got it to Andy Ree would be fantastic in

367
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 4: this right, running all these plays you know, snowflake and

368
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 4: corn dog and all these things that he likes to

369
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 4: call that would go over well internationally. Andy Ree would

370
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 4: be my first nominee for hey coach of the eight

371
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 4: twenty twenty eight US Olympic flag football team.

372
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, so Mikey, do you want to give

373
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 2: Schefter our teams here? Before we get to the Knicks.

374
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 2: I do want to ask him a couple of NFL

375
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 2: questions before we get him at Yeah, but do you

376
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 2: want to do you want to run? We drafted before

377
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: you came on. Me and Mikey A drafted from the

378
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 2: current players in the NFL. I did think of the NBA,

379
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 2: by the way, I did not think of the NBA

380
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 2: because maybe also looks some NBA players. But Mikey, I

381
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 2: give him your your top five and give him my

382
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 2: top five unless he has a better team.

383
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 3: So I took a starting five of Lamar Jackson, Jamar Chase,

384
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 3: Christian McCaffrey. I'm un Ross, Saint Brown, and Sauce Gardner.

385
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 4: I mean, you're not gonna go wrong with any of them.

386
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 4: It's like, Okay, I'm taking Chilcia Hip, Rocky road Men,

387
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 4: Cholcolate Ship, and the Fudge Brown. Okay, and what are

388
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 4: you taking to do?

389
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 2: Guts I have, you'll have to help me out here.

390
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 2: I took Travis Hunter first. I took Kyler Murray. I

391
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 2: took Gibbs, the running back from Detroit. I have to

392
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 2: rekill and I don't have my fifth written down.

393
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: Mikey, Yeah, I don't have your fifth written down either.

394
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 2: PEG's anshole chefter. Someone's gonna get hurt, and someone's gonna

395
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 2: be upset. I'm telling you right now. It's like Mark

396
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 2: Cuban used to say, I don't want my play. He

397
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 2: knows the likelihood is they're not gonna get hurt. But

398
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 2: Mark Cuban used to say, I don't want my players

399
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 2: playing in the Olympics. They're my players. I pay them.

400
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 2: The Olympics don't. And so I feel like this is

401
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 2: gonna be It's a good idea. I love it, but

402
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 2: ultimately some owner is going to be upset because their

403
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 2: guy is the guy that got hurt.

404
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 4: It's two uts. I was in Hawaii at the Pro

405
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 4: Bowl when I heard an ambulance and right outside of

406
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 4: my hotel, Robert Edwards, the Patriots first round draft pick,

407
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,360
Speaker 4: blew out his knee in a beach volleyball or beat

408
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 4: a flag football game flag football. Flag Valu was flag football,

409
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 4: I think on the beaches at the Pro Bowl after

410
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 4: a rookie year in which he rushed for over a

411
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 4: thousand yards and never was the same ever again.

412
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 2: Right, that's the concern. So it's interesting before we get

413
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 2: to the next year, what we haven't spoken to you

414
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 2: in a while at him. So I'm wondering of all

415
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: the things that transpired since the Super Bowl until now,

416
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,120
Speaker 2: through the draft everything, what are the three biggest stories

417
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 2: here in the off season according to you?

418
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 4: The three biggest stories in the offseason.

419
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 2: The three biggest things that happened in the off season.

420
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 4: Oh boyd, I'd have to if I'd got to like

421
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 4: pour over the options. I think, you know, I I

422
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 4: don't have anything off the top of my head that

423
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 4: just stands out, because I will say this Stu Gots.

424
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 4: It just seems like with the NFL, there's something every day,

425
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 4: every day. I mean, it's unbelievable. Like you know today,

426
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 4: you know Olympics is going to go through. Yesterday was

427
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 4: Fred Warner getting an extension. On Friday, it was Rock

428
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 4: Perty getting extension. I could just go back every single day,

429
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 4: there's something else in the National FOOTBA League.

430
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 2: And so Toush Bush coming up right.

431
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 4: The Touchbush tomorrow, That'll be tomorrow. They'll vote on that tomorrow.

432
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 4: I guess is it'll be banned. So with the with

433
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 4: the NFL, honestly, there's just something every day and the

434
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 4: story that day feels like the biggest thing that day

435
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 4: until the next thing happens the next day and we're

436
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 4: on to the next story, right, Like that's that's how

437
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 4: it works.

438
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Adam. How often are you shocked? How often

439
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 3: do you get a piece of news? Do you get

440
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,640
Speaker 3: something and you're like, no, that's happening, Oh you gave

441
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 3: him that money you want there?

442
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 4: Sometimes I'm waiting on something that I that I that

443
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 4: I'm aware of that doesn't happen, and you're just and

444
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 4: and so it goes by the wayside, right like you're like,

445
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 4: oh this, like you hear something you're shocked by, like

446
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 4: oh my god, and then it doesn't happen. So sometimes

447
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 4: those are the ones that are really shocked, things that

448
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 4: you're waiting on like that that don't come to be.

449
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 2: Schefter, how excited are you for Nixon Pacers? Man?

450
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 4: Like, you know, you know what? I Guess who's going

451
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 4: to Game one? And guess who's taking his father? My

452
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 4: father turns eighty on Thursday, Jeffrey Schefter, guess on your

453
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 4: program less clueless oblivious Jeff Schefter. Yes, he turns eighty,

454
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 4: and so I got him a ticket and I am

Speaker 4: I text him and he text me or something that goes.

00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 4: a ticket and was fortunate enough to come up with

467
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,880
Speaker 4: two days for impart for your birth your eightieth birthday.

468
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 4: You know, to this day, he talks about Willis reid

469
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 4: lyumping onto the court in Game seven of the nineteen

470
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 4: seventy finals against the Lakers as being the single greatest

471
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,959
Speaker 4: sports thrill of his life and when I offer, fifty

472
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 4: five years later to bring him back to Madison Square

473
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 4: Garden for the next first Conference Finals in twenty five years,

474
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 4: and I don't know that he's been back there since

475
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 4: Willis Reid. He's like, by the flight's going to be delayed.

476
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 4: Where you have to be just the rent a car,

477
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 4: your mother's got to take the bat whatever, We'll figure

478
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 4: it out, get it done.

479
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 2: You got tickets to game one? What are you talking about?

480
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 4: Stop? Stop that, just stop.

481
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 2: Mikey a book, Jeff Jeff here tomorrow. I want to

482
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 2: afford that. I want a full recap of the game

483
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 2: and what it was like if he was late, if

484
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 2: the plane was delayed. He's not flying into Newark?

485
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 4: Is he LaGuardia?

486
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 2: Okay? Good? So smart, he's a good he's a good shape.

487
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 2: So you're excited, right because this is the first time

488
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 2: we've been here, and I don't know since the nineties,

489
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 2: twenty five years or so, thirty years or so, and

490
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 2: it's against the Pacers, and so schefter I maintained. I

491
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 2: was telling Mike Ea before you came on, there is

492
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 2: nothing not your family, not the NFL. Maybe your family, okay,

493
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: that is more important to you right now than the

494
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 2: Nixon Pacers.

495
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 4: Well, there are things that are more important, by the way,

496
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 4: like uh no, no, it's gonna be a lot of

497
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 4: fun and I'd love to see them when and God,

498
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 4: like New York reacted when they beat the Celtics, like

499
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 4: people climbing street lights in New York City. And holy

500
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 4: I can't even imagine what it would be like if

501
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 4: they won the NBA champion. It would be New York.

502
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 4: I mean New York City would be turned upside down

503
00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 4: forget about it.

504
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 2: Yes, people don't understand this. The reason the Knicks is

505
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 2: so popular in New York is in New York we

506
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,879
Speaker 2: have choices growing up as sports fans. Baseball, we have

507
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 2: Yankees and Mets football, we have Jets and Giants hockey,

508
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 2: we have Islanders and Rangers. This is New York's team,

509
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 2: the Knicks. I don't care about the Nets. This is

510
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 2: New York team. This is the one team all of

511
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 2: us get behind, right Well, not only.

512
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 4: That, like I feel like if the Jets were ever

513
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 4: to make it to and win the Super Bowl, it

514
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 4: would elicit a similar reaction because I have all these

515
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 4: depressed Jets fans that you know, just are miserable every

516
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 4: year and never get rewarded for their efforts. Yeah, you know, so,

517
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 4: Like if the Knicks were to win the Championship the

518
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 4: Jets were to win, like, it would be wild. There

519
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 4: are certain franchises like in football, the Browns, the Bills,

520
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 4: the Lions, and I almost think I would include the Jets,

521
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 4: although they did win the Super Bowl Super Bowl three

522
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 4: back in sixteen, but most people don't remember, but they

523
00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 4: still won like the Lions, Browns, Bills, they haven't. And

524
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 4: so there are just certain franchises that they were if

525
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 4: they were ever able to both through and win. I mean,

526
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 4: I'd be so happy for those cities, honestly, because it

527
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 4: would mean so much.

528
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 2: Where are you and Dad sitting, by the way, I

529
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 2: don't know.

530
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 4: I got the tickets for email to me today. I

531
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 4: got them through a friend of mine, Craig Karmecy.

532
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 2: Very kind, really, Craig got you think it's Uh, Craig

533
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 2: is a he's a good man. Uh. They're gonna be.

534
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 2: They should be for you know, first five rows? Right?

535
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: You're Adam?

536
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, I don't think so. No,

537
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 4: I don't think so.

538
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 2: But Dad is coming.

539
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 4: I think it's like ESPN box. I don't know what

540
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 4: it is. I don't know. I really don't know.

541
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 2: How is Dad gonna be in a suite? If you

542
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 2: have him in a suite, he's not gonna be happy.

543
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 2: That's old school man.

544
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, Dad doesn't like to go to games. He

545
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 4: likes to watch it on TV. Okay, But for once we're,

546
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 4: you know, fifty five years later, we're gonna suck it

547
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 4: up and we're gonna soak in the ambiance of Madison

548
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 4: Square Garden and what it's like to be at the

549
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 4: Eastern We're gonna enjoy that tonight.

550
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 3: Pop up.

551
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 4: Okay, Like I know that you have better angles on

552
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 4: TV in a bathroom right nearby and snatching your friet,

553
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 4: but we're gonna try something different on Wednesday night for

554
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 4: your eightieth birthday.

555
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 2: It seems painful for him, it is for him.

556
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 4: It is.

557
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 3: He's gonna watch the TV in the suite exactly right,

558
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,720
Speaker 3: without his shoes on, and.

559
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 4: He'll probably fall asleep in the chair as he's watching

560
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 4: the game. Out to wake him in the fourth quarter, Papa,

561
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:24,959
Speaker 4: we got to get out of here and go him down.

562
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 2: Oh that is so good. All right, give me your prediction.

563
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 2: You have the knicks and six here. What do you

564
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 2: what are you thinking?

565
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 4: Uh? You know the pacers. I said to somebody today,

566
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 4: I think if they played ten times, each team would

567
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 4: probably win five games. I think the Pacers are formidable

568
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 4: and a really good team. I'm hoping the Knicks and seven,

569
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 4: but I'm not gonna be surprised that Pacers. The Pacers

570
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 4: beat them in seven last year, so it's time for

571
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:47,680
Speaker 4: the Knicks to return the favor.

572
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 2: Do you agree that Reggie Miller should not insert himself

573
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 2: into this series? He's going to try to, he should

574
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 2: not do it enough.

575
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 4: I think it's only fitting that he's calling the game

576
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 4: on TNT, the final broadcast for TNT, that Reggie Miller

577
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 4: gets to do it. Nick Spacers with Freddie Miller on him.

578
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 4: He's pretty cool.

579
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 2: H If you had to draft a flag football player

580
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 2: from the NBA, would it be Charlie Ward? All time?

581
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 2: Is it Charlie Ward? Is that the guys at Nate Robinson?

582
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 2: Who's the guy Lebron?

583
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 4: I'll take Lebron for everything?

584
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 2: Really?

585
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

586
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 1: For everything? Oh yeah, but he runs too tall, runs

587
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: too high?

588
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, Now, I'll take my chances to them. That's okay.

589
00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 2: You got to protect the flags man.

590
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 4: That's okay. I'll take my chances to them.

591
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 2: Who was that guy that walked by there? Chef?

592
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 4: I came into a corner to try to be you know, uninterrupted.

593
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 2: But that's the way, all right, get out of here.

594
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 2: Promote the charity again. If people want to donate to

595
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 2: the Chef.

596
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 4: I'm here to raise money for a Breakthrough t one day,

597

601
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 2: winning the NBA title. Yes, we'll play Minnesota. It's a

602
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 2: trade that worked out for both teams. They'll play.

603
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,239
Speaker 4: Hold on. I believe there's this Sports Center clip at

604
00:28:58,280 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 4: the beginning of the season on sports and we have

605
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 4: to find it. Steevef Mikey can find it. Which it

606
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 4: was the day that Wolje retired, right and uh and

607
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 4: they had me on they asked me for my MBA

608
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 4: prediction and I predicted thunder Nick's finals.

609
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 2: Wow. Wow, Chefter, you should have replaced Woje. I don't

610
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 2: understand why that didn't happen. I mean, seriously, I don't

611
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 2: know either.

612
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: Chafter Schefter. This is the same guy that predicted Bears

613
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: Jets Super Bowl last year.

614
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 2: I was doing a thing I was doing a thing

615
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:34,719
Speaker 2: you're always trying to piss off Chiefs fans.

616
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 4: That would have been the Justin Fields Bowl, I guess right.

617
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 4: Or he was a Pittsburgh last year.

618
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 2: So see. But that's why flag football is different. Justin Fields.

619
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 2: If there was a if there was an n f

620
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 2: f L okay, a National Flag Football League, we never
