<v Speaker 1>just gonna make some assumptions. So Patrick, and welcome to

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 1>the Dan Patrick Show. July Amazed, just a week away

0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:47.080
<v Speaker 1>from the NFL Draft. Extremely confident. Nobody brings you bigger

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:51.920
<v Speaker 1>guests or better exprests Dan Orlovsky Football alsts former NFL

0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>quarterback Jake of all the quarterbacks that we've talked about

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>in the draft in the last fifteen twenty years that

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:00.400
<v Speaker 1>win the first two or three things out of people mouthar,

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:03.639
<v Speaker 1>he's big, he's strong. More often than that those catschus

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 1>failed because that stuff doesn't matter. It should be the

0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:09.080
<v Speaker 1>other way to mental. And so that's what concerns me

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:11.319
<v Speaker 1>about Justin Herbert is like, no one's going managed got

0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>great instincts or gosh, it's after a SE's ridiculous, or

0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:16.479
<v Speaker 1>he's got this ability to make all these different kinds

0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 1>of tooth those. All the things that people talk about

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:21.400
<v Speaker 1>are like that high about that he struggled with broadcasting

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:24.679

<v Speaker 1>Jordan Chicago Bulls documentary. Jason Harrill will join us. He

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.920
<v Speaker 1>also did The Chicago Bears and he also did the

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:19.239
<v Speaker 1>Fab Five. He's not from Chicago, which I found interesting,

0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>but he did the Fab Five, did a great job

0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:24.560
<v Speaker 1>with that, The Chicago Bears, and now the ten part

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>series on Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. The last

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:32.920
<v Speaker 1>season that they were together, I saw some interesting numbers

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 1>on the Chicago Bulls that I didn't realize, and of

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:39.240
<v Speaker 1>course I was there covering them. As it turns out,

0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:43.440
<v Speaker 1>worth thousands of others were there. Apparently, Hey, I was there.

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:46.920
<v Speaker 1>I covered them. You did, I didn't see you. But

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 1>that's actually where we first met. Is that what it was?

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:52.560
<v Speaker 1>In the locker room? Oh I didn't know, Seaton. How

0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 1>old were you when the bulls were there in nineteen

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>ninety seven, nineteen ninety eight. I would have just graduated

0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 1>high school in ninety six, So yeah, I was kept

0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 1>college and went right to the bulls. PAULI was working

0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:07.760
<v Speaker 1>a door I think at a bar in New York

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.320
<v Speaker 1>or Arizona. Oh no, when the bulls were on their run,

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I graduated college. H During the part part of the run,

0:04:13.840 --> 0:04:16.559
<v Speaker 1>I was a bouncer. Air quotes, Oh no, you worked

0:04:16.560 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>the door as a dormant. Checked id at Sedgewicks in

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Lincoln Park and we get to watch all the games.

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Dorman McLevin, Where were you in nineteen ninety seven, nineteen

0:04:26.279 --> 0:04:29.320
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight? Gosh, I've forgotten. I've heard so many stories

0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:31.560
<v Speaker 1>about Paully in that era that I've kind of confused

0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:34.920
<v Speaker 1>it with my own life. I was at Downside Rigors Club.

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Don't remember any of that. Yeah, Todd, where were you

0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:43.520
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen ninety seven ninety eight? I was living in

0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:46.920
<v Speaker 1>LA and working in Hollywood for ESPN's Up Close Show

0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:51.160
<v Speaker 1>with Chris Myers. All right, I did not know this,

0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:55.480
<v Speaker 1>but the Chicago Bulls were I think the oldest NBA

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:59.760
<v Speaker 1>championship team. You know, Jordan was thirty five when the

0:04:59.800 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Sea and ended. He led the team in scoring, averaging

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:06.000
<v Speaker 1>just under twenty nine. Only one NBA champ has ever

0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:10.400
<v Speaker 1>had an older leading scorer, and that was Kareem Abdul

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Jabbar in nineteen eighty four eighty five, when he was

0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:16.600
<v Speaker 1>thirty seven. This is how old The nineteen ninety seven

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:22.880
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight Bulls were oldest title winning team and one

0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:25.200
<v Speaker 1>of the oldest teams in NBA history. So you had

0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 1>the top three players in regular season minutes, Jordan, Rodman,

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:33.280
<v Speaker 1>and Ron Harper, all at least thirty four. Only two

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.719
<v Speaker 1>other teams in NBA history can say that, the ninety

0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>eight Rockets and the h nine Sons, their top eight

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:44.320
<v Speaker 1>players in regular season minutes were all at least twenty nine.

0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Only one other team in NBA history can say that

0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that was the Three Knicks. When we talk about Jerry Krauss,

0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:54.440
<v Speaker 1>and he was the architect, the GM of the Chicago Bulls.

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:59.040
<v Speaker 1>He probably looked at this and said, you know, Scottie

0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:02.039
<v Speaker 1>Pippen was in that year, missed the first thirty five

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>games he had an injured foot. But you started to

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.680
<v Speaker 1>look at this team and say, are they fragile? How

0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 1>long can Rodman hold on Michael with all that playoff

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:16.359
<v Speaker 1>mileage on him and he's going to be thirty five.

0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:19.240
<v Speaker 1>And maybe they looked at this and said, we could

0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:21.800
<v Speaker 1>roll the dice, but we're going to blow this up.

0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:25.119
<v Speaker 1>That's why it's the last dance. And I wonder about

0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 1>that because they started off they were eight and seven.

0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:32.719
<v Speaker 1>First fifteen games, they went eight and seven, and then

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 1>people can make the case that's the best basketball team

0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:39.480
<v Speaker 1>we've ever seen. It's generational. I go back to the

0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Celtics in the sixties and I think they had at

0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 1>one point eight or nine all stars on one championship

0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:51.120
<v Speaker 1>team with Bill Russell. It's generational. It's the same thing

0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:54.960
<v Speaker 1>with the Bulls. I go back to Showtime with Magic Johnson,

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:58.080
<v Speaker 1>you know Bird with the Celtics there, how great were

0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:01.320
<v Speaker 1>their teams? If you had one series to win and

0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 1>you were going to plug in a team, and you

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:07.840
<v Speaker 1>were looking at these dynasties. It's difficult because I can

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:10.000
<v Speaker 1>look at Shack and Kobe and when they did it right,

0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 1>they were spectacular. But I also look at when Magic

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:16.720
<v Speaker 1>had Kareem and James Worthy and Michael Cooper and Byron

0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>Scott who and you had a good bench as well.

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.840
<v Speaker 1>I got a great coach, pat Riley. I look at

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.280
<v Speaker 1>that Celtics team that had Hall of famers at every position.

0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Sixth Man of the Year was a Hall of Famer

0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:33.760
<v Speaker 1>in Bill Walton. You know, Dennis Johnson, Hall of Famer,

0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Byrd McHale, Parish hall of Famer, Danny Ainge very good.

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, there are a lot of great teams, but

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 1>you could have depth back then. It's hard now because

0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>you may have two superstars that's all you can afford.

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you get three really good players. But when you

0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:51.640
<v Speaker 1>start to say, well, that's the greatest team of all time,

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 1>I can say that Showtime is the most entertaining team

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.680
<v Speaker 1>I've ever seen. That was something we had not seen

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:03.119
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA. They sort of changed the game where

0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:06.720
<v Speaker 1>you were up tempo and you you were having fun

0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:11.400
<v Speaker 1>with that, like actually smiling playing basketball and then even

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>the Celtics back then ran, you know Bird McHale, they ran,

0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and you wouldn't think that those guys would be out

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 1>on the break, but they did. You look back on

0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:23.640
<v Speaker 1>those videos, you know Jordan's team, Oh, how would they

0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 1>compare with the Golden State Warriors with Kevin Durant and

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Clay Thompson and Steph Curry. Well, they didn't have three

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.760
<v Speaker 1>point shooters back then, but you weren't required to have

0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:35.520
<v Speaker 1>three point shooters. I'm going to guess Michael would have

0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:38.320
<v Speaker 1>changed his game to shoot more threes. We saw what

0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 1>he did against the Portland Trailblazers when they beat them

0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:45.320
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA finals. You had Craig Hodges, you had

0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:48.120
<v Speaker 1>John Paxson, you had Steve Kerry. They would have added

0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:51.240
<v Speaker 1>to Ron Harper probably would have been a better three

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:55.080
<v Speaker 1>point shooter. Tony Ku coach like you, you would have evolved,

0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:58.559
<v Speaker 1>because you have to evolve. I saw where Shack was saying,

0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:01.440
<v Speaker 1>you know that his Laker team with Kobe, they would

0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:05.439
<v Speaker 1>have crushed the Bulls because Shack would have dominated Bill Wennington,

0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Bill Cartwright and Luke Longley, which is true, but that's

0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 1>you know the game has changed since then, because how

0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:17.640
<v Speaker 1>would you do against Golden State. I'm sure you would

0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:21.319
<v Speaker 1>dominate JaVale McGee, but you know you got all of

0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 1>the Kevin Durant, Steph Curry and Clay Thompson, those guys,

0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:27.680
<v Speaker 1>and Andrea Goodala, who was the MVP of the Finally,

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that's where you get into these arguments that I don't

0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 1>think you could ever win, and you don't lose, but

0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:37.400
<v Speaker 1>you can't win. It's fun, it's fun to discuss that,

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.840
<v Speaker 1>but you know, it's generational and it feels like we

0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:44.320
<v Speaker 1>have one of those teams every ten years where you go, boy,

0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:47.320
<v Speaker 1>that's that team could stack up against anybody. And I

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:49.520
<v Speaker 1>wondered about this, and I know it sounded crazy when

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:53.760
<v Speaker 1>I said it yesterday. Would Michael Jordan be as good

0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:58.760
<v Speaker 1>as Steph Curry in today's NBA? Now I'm looking at

0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:03.360
<v Speaker 1>his style versus We know Michael's a better player, but

0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about the impact on the game because I

0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:09.360
<v Speaker 1>think Steph Curry will be remembered as having a bigger

0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>impact on the game than Jordan. Because if I look

0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 1>at Jordan, we look at Jordan and he's become Babe Ruth.

0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:22.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, there's a mythological field to Mike now, because

0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.839
<v Speaker 1>this documentary is going to bring it all back to you.

0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.720
<v Speaker 1>If you didn't see it, now you're gonna understand who

0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Mike was, how he played, how he treated opponents, how

0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 1>he treated teammates as well. But you start to look

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:40.760
<v Speaker 1>at Steph Curry's impact on the game, and not everybody

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:43.160
<v Speaker 1>can dunk, but there are a lot of people who

0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:45.480
<v Speaker 1>can shoot threes or think they can shoot three. You

0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.720
<v Speaker 1>can't go I think I can dunk? Do you do

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:53.080
<v Speaker 1>say to yourself, I think I can shoot threes? I

0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 1>mean Trey Young is successful because as Steph Curry. Steph

0:10:57.600 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Curry open the eyes of a lot of players to say,

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:05.200
<v Speaker 1>you can be like this and be great. You don't

0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.440
<v Speaker 1>have to be like Mike, because nobody can be like Mike,

0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.960
<v Speaker 1>but you can be like Steph Curry just from the

0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:15.320
<v Speaker 1>point of you can shoot these shots. Of course, got

0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.280
<v Speaker 1>to make him. But I you know, I was wondering

0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:21.520
<v Speaker 1>about that yesterday. I can't undersell the impact of Steph

0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:24.760
<v Speaker 1>Curry on the game of basketball. The three used to

0:11:24.800 --> 0:11:28.560
<v Speaker 1>be what are you doing? And I can't oversell Steph

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Curry like you're shooting three? You can't shoot that far out.

0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:35.800
<v Speaker 1>That's because of Steph Curry. Now, not everybody should be

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Steph Curry changed the game, right If I go back

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:46.400
<v Speaker 1>seven years ago, eight years ago, nobody was doing that.

0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:50.440
<v Speaker 1>It was crazy what he was doing. Steve Kerr, who

0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:54.959
<v Speaker 1>played with Jordan, he was like, what are you doing?

0:11:55.080 --> 0:11:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Running around like that and then taking those shots, and

0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:00.080
<v Speaker 1>then he realized he's got the greatest shooter in the

0:12:00.160 --> 0:12:03.440
<v Speaker 1>history of the game there. Now, would Michael have evolved

0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 1>to shoot threes, Yes, he would, So would Larry Bird,

0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:13.680
<v Speaker 1>So would Magic? You would be doing Imagine Bird taking

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:18.920
<v Speaker 1>ten threes a game, all right? He never made more

0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:21.640
<v Speaker 1>than three in a game in his career. I don't

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:26.800
<v Speaker 1>think you know, if I said Bird shooting ten, if

0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Magic all of a sudden, you know, has hit at

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 1>his height, he could take he inside, but he could

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 1>also you got to guard him at the three point

0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:37.000
<v Speaker 1>line as well, and he developed a legitimate set shot

0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:40.320
<v Speaker 1>there from three point range? You know, would Isaiah Thomas

0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:42.880
<v Speaker 1>be more of a three point shooter like you? Just

0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:48.480
<v Speaker 1>the game has evolved. It's not just I. It was physical. Hey,

0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:52.720
<v Speaker 1>I can dunk to Now there's no real center and

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:55.320
<v Speaker 1>you got five guys on the perimeter used to be

0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:58.920
<v Speaker 1>an inside outside game at pick and roll. It's changed,

0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of that is bec Steph Curry. He's

0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 1>not a better basketball player than Michael Jordan, but he

0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:09.080
<v Speaker 1>might have a bigger impact because of today's youth that

0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:12.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, kids now, go watch a game, go watch

0:13:12.120 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>a fifth grade, sixth grade, seventh grade game. They think

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:19.240
<v Speaker 1>they're Steph Curry and they're gonna think there's Steph Curry

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:25.080
<v Speaker 1>while he's still playing. But I can underestimate or overestimate

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.320
<v Speaker 1>his impact on the game. And I know I said

0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.839
<v Speaker 1>this yesterday and people question that Lebron to me, is

0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:34.559
<v Speaker 1>a better basketball player than Michael Jordan. Not a better player,

0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 1>better all around basketball player with what he does, you know,

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>certainly a better teammate, better passer, better rebounder. And he

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.040
<v Speaker 1>could be he could be a center, and he could

0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:51.760
<v Speaker 1>be a point guard. Michael obviously who had the killer instinct.

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:56.040
<v Speaker 1>And I wonder what Michael would be like now. I'm

0:13:56.320 --> 0:14:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm worried about this when this documentary comes out how

0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:04.440
<v Speaker 1>we viewed Jordan because Jordan could do it back then,

0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:08.280
<v Speaker 1>but he couldn't be Jordan like this now because social

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:11.840
<v Speaker 1>media would probably be pretty rough on him and the

0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:15.280
<v Speaker 1>reporters too, TMZ guys, you know, wanting to get a

0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:19.840
<v Speaker 1>scoop here, you got NBA insiders, you know, you'd have

0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:22.720
<v Speaker 1>Wos and you'd have Brian Wynhorse that who would be

0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.120
<v Speaker 1>their job would be to follow Jordan. Rachel Nichols would

0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>be interviewing. He got to be able to hide a

0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>little bit. Lebron can't hide Lebron. He's there. And I

0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:39.320
<v Speaker 1>think if if I switched these and Lebron played back

0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:44.760
<v Speaker 1>when Mike did and Jordan played now, Lebron would be

0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:48.360
<v Speaker 1>the greatest basketball player of all time because there was

0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:51.960
<v Speaker 1>nobody like him, and really there still hasn't been anybody

0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:56.920
<v Speaker 1>like him, but I do I'm curious how people react

0:14:56.960 --> 0:15:00.600
<v Speaker 1>to this documentary with Jordan. Where they got was a jerk,

0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.880
<v Speaker 1>and you know, Jordan was on Good Morning America. I

0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>was kind of surprised that he went on. It feels

0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>like he's trying to soften his image a little bit

0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:13.080
<v Speaker 1>before this comes out. And it's okay to be who

0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:17.080
<v Speaker 1>you were. That's who Kobe was. You know, Burden didn't

0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:21.560
<v Speaker 1>like you, he was rough on his teammates. That's just

0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:25.160
<v Speaker 1>who you were and how you played back then you

0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:28.440
<v Speaker 1>don't have to apologize. We didn't get to see this.

0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Even the Steve Kerr where he punches his teammate story

0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 1>that you know came out and people are like, wait,

0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:42.800
<v Speaker 1>what happened? So you have these situations here where these

0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:47.040
<v Speaker 1>things happened, and it was almost like folklore, like hey,

0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:50.600
<v Speaker 1>do you hear the story about Mike and Scottie and

0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 1>you get a little but like it was just word

0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:57.600
<v Speaker 1>of mouth. And that's what I'm curious how the PC

0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:01.160
<v Speaker 1>police are going to react to Michael Jordan, Oh that language.

0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.800
<v Speaker 1>All I know is he got his players to play.

0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 1>All I know is when he went to a finals,

0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:11.560
<v Speaker 1>he won. All I know is when you needed something big,

0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:15.560
<v Speaker 1>he came up big. I can't argue with any of that.

0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:21.000
<v Speaker 1>You start to judge players by personality. Then it gets

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:25.240
<v Speaker 1>dangerous because if I said, hey, you know what Lebron did.

0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:29.160
<v Speaker 1>He punched one of his teammates during practice. Hey you

0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>know what Lebron did? He went to Atlantic City. He

0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.040
<v Speaker 1>was gambling for a playoff game. Like if I told

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:38.760
<v Speaker 1>you look at what Lebron is doing, you would kill him.

0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:42.960
<v Speaker 1>On social media With Michael, somehow we go it's like

0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:46.200
<v Speaker 1>when we look at mobsters. When you watch a documentary

0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:48.520
<v Speaker 1>on mobsters, it's amazing. How we go. God, I hope

0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.800
<v Speaker 1>they get away with this man. I know he's a

0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:57.840
<v Speaker 1>bad guy. Suddenly. I care about Bugsy Siegel here, But

0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 1>with Michael, I think we sort of said we love

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:04.359
<v Speaker 1>the end product here, we love what that is. And

0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:09.640
<v Speaker 1>it's the last dynasty where we actually were rooting for them.

0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Everybody was unless they were facing your team. And even then.

0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I remember being in Atlanta going to a game the

0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Hawks against the Bulls, and ninety percent of that crowd

0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:26.480
<v Speaker 1>was there to see the Chicago Bulls against their team.

0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:31.480
<v Speaker 1>It felt like Golden State. We got tired of that dynasty.

0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:35.320
<v Speaker 1>It's because of social media. If the Bulls played now,

0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:38.520
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, Rodman up to his antics again, I'll pippin.

0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:40.800
<v Speaker 1>They doesn't want to go in the game, you know,

0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Michael gambling whatever else he's doing off the like, we

0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:50.199
<v Speaker 1>would have chewed that up and spit it out, Like

0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.040
<v Speaker 1>how long did it take before we got tired of

0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:56.879
<v Speaker 1>Golden State? Three years? When Durant got there, We're like,

0:17:57.119 --> 0:18:00.600
<v Speaker 1>m we're done with this. You know, the Patriots dynasty

0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:04.720
<v Speaker 1>of sorts. People got tired of that quickly. They didn't

0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:08.359
<v Speaker 1>not be loved, admired, not beloved. The Bulls are beloved.

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:14.040
<v Speaker 1>They're like a boy band. But there's a lot of

0:18:14.080 --> 0:18:19.120
<v Speaker 1>pressure on this director to make this payoff. It's it's

0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:24.040
<v Speaker 1>it's ten hours of this and I want to know

0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:29.160
<v Speaker 1>and maybe maybe the director will tell me did they did?

0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:33.400
<v Speaker 1>They have to convince Jordan to do this, because I'm

0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:40.240
<v Speaker 1>wondering if he was first or last. And in knowing Mike,

0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:43.119
<v Speaker 1>he's a control freak. I'm sure he had his hands

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:46.080
<v Speaker 1>all over this and saying, hey, I'll do this, but

0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:49.679
<v Speaker 1>this is how I want it done. All right, mclove

0:18:49.720 --> 0:18:51.480
<v Speaker 1>And you got a pull question. This program brought to

0:18:51.480 --> 0:18:53.880

0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:07.399
<v Speaker 1>gonna like it. Okay, why don't we want the best team? Wait?

0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Let's wait then if I'm not gonna like it, well,

0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:13.000
<v Speaker 1>you said specifically don't bring this debate up, but I

0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.440
<v Speaker 1>have to. I really I want to put it out

0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:18.080
<v Speaker 1>there and I'll save it. Okay, but everybody in sports

0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:21.800
<v Speaker 1>bars argues this very topic about NBA teams. Okay, do

0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:24.840
<v Speaker 1>you want to hear it? Yeah? From nineteen eighty to

0:19:24.880 --> 0:19:27.440
<v Speaker 1>two thousand, who is the best team? Is somebody backing

0:19:27.520 --> 0:19:30.359
<v Speaker 1>up over you with what this question is going to be?

0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:34.159
<v Speaker 1>I hear a truck backing up. Yeah, I have a

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:36.480
<v Speaker 1>new mic and I noticed this kicking up the sound

0:19:36.520 --> 0:19:39.080
<v Speaker 1>in Brooklyn. It seems like it could be a problem. Okay,

0:19:39.119 --> 0:19:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna blame the it guy or Mario. So who

0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:46.359
<v Speaker 1>is a better team? Lakers, Celtics or Bulls? I don't.

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:50.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you can. I don't think there's

0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:53.879
<v Speaker 1>a wrong answer. I don't. I mean, the Pistons were

0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.520
<v Speaker 1>a wonderful team. Nobody liked him, but boy they were

0:19:56.520 --> 0:19:59.679
<v Speaker 1>a great team. You know this Golden State team with Durant,

0:19:59.760 --> 0:20:01.679
<v Speaker 1>curR and Clay thoms So I have three of the

0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:05.480
<v Speaker 1>I have, you know, the greatest shooter of all time,

0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:09.440
<v Speaker 1>Klay Thompson's in the conversation of top ten of all time,

0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:11.840
<v Speaker 1>and Durant is in the top five of one of

0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:16.200
<v Speaker 1>the greatest scores of all time. I got firepower there,

0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:19.320
<v Speaker 1>so do I put them in there as well? I

0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:21.840
<v Speaker 1>got a stat for you. You know, I'll take a break.

0:20:22.280 --> 0:20:24.680
<v Speaker 1>It has to do with the Bulls in nineteen ninety seven,

0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:27.359
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight and Steph Curry. I think it will surprise

0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:29.360
<v Speaker 1>you a little bit. All Right, we'll take a break here,

0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>we'll come back. Phone calls are welcome. Also, these high

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:37.680
<v Speaker 1>school players who are now going to Australia. Now you

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.760
<v Speaker 1>got the number one player in high school, a kid

0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:46.080
<v Speaker 1>out of Fresno, and he's going to the G League.

0:20:47.400 --> 0:20:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even know this program existed, but is this

0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.040
<v Speaker 1>the new norm of what you're going to have with

0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:56.960
<v Speaker 1>some of these kids. R J. Hampton went over to Australia,

0:20:57.119 --> 0:21:00.280
<v Speaker 1>LaMelo Ball went over there. Those guys are all you know.

0:21:00.359 --> 0:21:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Lamella might be the number one pick overall. Jalen Green

0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:06.640
<v Speaker 1>out of Fresno the number one player going into college,

0:21:06.640 --> 0:21:09.000
<v Speaker 1>but he's not going to college. We'll talk about that.

0:21:09.080 --> 0:21:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Pat Forty will join us coming up to talk about this.

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:15.920

0:22:52.880 --> 0:22:56.680
<v Speaker 1>change your opinion of Michael Jordan watching this last dance,

0:22:57.680 --> 0:23:00.760
<v Speaker 1>maybe it will enhance his image even more and say, oh,

0:23:00.760 --> 0:23:04.560
<v Speaker 1>how can you compare Lebron to Michael Jordan. It's hard

0:23:04.560 --> 0:23:07.199
<v Speaker 1>to compare the two, but I do think that we

0:23:07.359 --> 0:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>hold Lebron accountable for all the losses in the finals,

0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:12.800
<v Speaker 1>when if you look at the teams he played for

0:23:12.960 --> 0:23:15.720
<v Speaker 1>to get to the finals, it was rare when he

0:23:15.800 --> 0:23:19.640
<v Speaker 1>had somebody like Scottie Pippen. And when he did, he

0:23:19.720 --> 0:23:22.320
<v Speaker 1>was with the Miami Heat and they won a couple

0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:24.840
<v Speaker 1>of titles there. But what he did when he first

0:23:24.880 --> 0:23:26.760
<v Speaker 1>got there at age twenty two, the team he took

0:23:26.760 --> 0:23:29.160
<v Speaker 1>to the finals to face the Spurs, which had how

0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:32.919
<v Speaker 1>many Hall of famers on it, and he lost. I

0:23:33.000 --> 0:23:36.240
<v Speaker 1>think the fact that you go to nine NBA finals

0:23:37.720 --> 0:23:40.359
<v Speaker 1>that should be a credit. I go back to the

0:23:40.359 --> 0:23:43.239
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo Bills. We always thought it was a negative. They

0:23:43.280 --> 0:23:47.120
<v Speaker 1>lost four consecutive Super Bowls. They went to four consecutive

0:23:47.160 --> 0:23:50.119
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowls. We never celebrate that at all. It's a

0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:55.120
<v Speaker 1>bottom line. You lost. Therefore, your worst team in the NFL.

0:23:55.280 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Somehow Lebron got those teams to the finals. Now I

0:24:00.720 --> 0:24:03.400
<v Speaker 1>can say that when Michael hit that shot against Cleveland,

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:05.600
<v Speaker 1>he had a lineup that had no business beating the

0:24:05.640 --> 0:24:09.919
<v Speaker 1>Cavaliers because the Cavaliers had Mark Price, Brad Doherty, Larry Nance,

0:24:10.200 --> 0:24:14.440
<v Speaker 1>they had a really good team and Mike hit that shot.

0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Even the writers for the Chicago Bulls they didn't pick

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the Bulls to beat the Cavaliers. And normally you get

0:24:21.840 --> 0:24:25.359
<v Speaker 1>the hometown discount, homecount, you know, home court advantage with

0:24:25.400 --> 0:24:28.600
<v Speaker 1>your writers. That's why Michael was shaking his fist when

0:24:28.640 --> 0:24:31.679
<v Speaker 1>he hits the shot over Elo. He's shaking his fist

0:24:31.800 --> 0:24:36.600
<v Speaker 1>at those writers to say, bleep you. That's when it started.

0:24:37.960 --> 0:24:40.000
<v Speaker 1>That's when the I'm gonna win and I'm going to

0:24:40.040 --> 0:24:42.840
<v Speaker 1>be the greatest player of all times started. I mentioned

0:24:42.840 --> 0:24:45.720
<v Speaker 1>I had a stat for you. In that final year

0:24:45.760 --> 0:24:48.760
<v Speaker 1>together the Bulls in nineteen ninety seven nineteen ninety eight

0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:56.160
<v Speaker 1>made three hundred and eleven three pointers. Steph Curry individually

0:24:56.359 --> 0:25:00.440
<v Speaker 1>has made at least that many in three difference seasons.

0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 1>The game has changed. Let that sink in again. Nineteen

0:25:06.560 --> 0:25:10.480
<v Speaker 1>ninety seven, ninety eight, they made three hundred eleven three pointers.

0:25:10.520 --> 0:25:13.840
<v Speaker 1>Steph Curry has made at least that many in three

0:25:14.200 --> 0:25:30.520
<v Speaker 1>different seasons. Yes, Die Jeff in North Carolina. Hi Jeff,

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Then we'll get to Pat forty about these high school

0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:37.119
<v Speaker 1>players playing in the G League, playing overseas, and what

0:25:37.200 --> 0:25:41.520
<v Speaker 1>about a college playoff expanding to maybe sixteen teams? Hi Jeff,

0:25:42.440 --> 0:25:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Then good morning, Good morning. I just it seems to

0:25:46.080 --> 0:25:49.440
<v Speaker 1>be a national narrative now that everybody keeps saying Lebron's

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:52.080
<v Speaker 1>a better basketball player. But I just don't see it.

0:25:52.119 --> 0:25:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Michael so much better defender, so much better shooter,

0:25:57.640 --> 0:26:01.280
<v Speaker 1>so much better score, but it's a better rebounder. I mean,

0:26:01.280 --> 0:26:03.960
<v Speaker 1>how is he a better player? Game is so much

0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:08.040
<v Speaker 1>open now, the stats are all just tripled what they

0:26:08.080 --> 0:26:09.919
<v Speaker 1>used to be in the nineties. I mean, I just

0:26:09.960 --> 0:26:14.000
<v Speaker 1>don't see this man as a better basketball players. I

0:26:14.119 --> 0:26:20.720
<v Speaker 1>just I think Lebron uh at that size, that versatility. Look,

0:26:20.760 --> 0:26:24.040
<v Speaker 1>this is just my opinion, And look I watched them all.

0:26:24.560 --> 0:26:26.320
<v Speaker 1>As I told you on the show, the only person

0:26:26.359 --> 0:26:28.919
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see in person was Bill Russell play, so

0:26:28.920 --> 0:26:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I saw him all. I just look at Lebron's versatility.

0:26:32.760 --> 0:26:35.880
<v Speaker 1>We don't we take it for granted what Lebron does.

0:26:36.920 --> 0:26:39.880
<v Speaker 1>There's no one like him. Now, we've had guys who

0:26:39.920 --> 0:26:46.359
<v Speaker 1>are similar in athleticism to Michael similar. Okay, there's no

0:26:46.359 --> 0:26:51.000
<v Speaker 1>one like Lebron there. There just isn't. I just think

0:26:51.040 --> 0:26:53.679
<v Speaker 1>that the national narrative, if you want to, you know,

0:26:54.560 --> 0:26:57.199
<v Speaker 1>define it that way, is we look for reasons to

0:26:57.359 --> 0:27:01.719
<v Speaker 1>not like Lebron. You know, if I take Magic and

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:06.119
<v Speaker 1>I take you know, Michael, I get Lebron. That's the

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:09.159
<v Speaker 1>talent that you have there. And I know, you know,

0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:11.720
<v Speaker 1>we grew up with Jordan and Jordan's ours, and you know,

0:27:11.800 --> 0:27:15.600
<v Speaker 1>nobody will ever be better than him. I understand that.

0:27:16.200 --> 0:27:20.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're territorial. You know, maybe somebody fifteen years

0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:23.080
<v Speaker 1>from now say Steph Curry had a bigger impact on

0:27:23.119 --> 0:27:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the game than Michael Jordan did. And then we start

0:27:25.119 --> 0:27:28.600
<v Speaker 1>an argument Lebron's not done yet. If he wins the

0:27:28.680 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 1>title with the Lakers or two more titles, then what

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 1>are you going to say? What if he ends up

0:27:33.119 --> 0:27:35.679
<v Speaker 1>is the all time leading scorer, all time leader in

0:27:35.760 --> 0:27:39.480
<v Speaker 1>assist or top five in assist, top five in steels.

0:27:40.480 --> 0:27:42.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, then what's the argument there? What if he

0:27:42.840 --> 0:27:48.000
<v Speaker 1>goes to eleven NBA finals. Let's say, so, we want

0:27:48.040 --> 0:27:53.920
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that we we're protective of our Jordan era.

0:27:54.800 --> 0:27:58.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, don't take anything away from that. Okay, that's fine.

0:28:00.080 --> 0:28:02.320
<v Speaker 1>He's a he's a you know, the greatest player of

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:04.960
<v Speaker 1>all time. And I said this yesterday. If I have

0:28:05.119 --> 0:28:07.199
<v Speaker 1>one game to win, Mike is the guy that I

0:28:07.240 --> 0:28:10.800
<v Speaker 1>want on my team. I just think Lebron and what

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:13.639
<v Speaker 1>he's done, how he's done it and done it in

0:28:13.800 --> 0:28:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the day. You know, the air of social media is underrated. Yeah,

0:28:18.480 --> 0:28:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I said it. Lebron James is underrated. Pat forty, well,

0:28:23.119 --> 0:28:25.800
<v Speaker 1>I almost said overrated, but I can't do that to Pat.

0:28:25.800 --> 0:28:28.880
<v Speaker 1>He's he's too nice. Properly rated whatever that is. Pat

0:28:28.920 --> 0:28:34.280
<v Speaker 1>forty is properly rated. Joints on loan? Do you get

0:28:34.320 --> 0:28:37.320
<v Speaker 1>into these conversations about best of all time and best

0:28:37.359 --> 0:28:43.080
<v Speaker 1>team and dynasty and Lebron and Michael Personally, I think

0:28:43.120 --> 0:28:47.040
<v Speaker 1>the proper tag for me is criminally underrated. You know,

0:28:47.400 --> 0:28:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I'll stick with sal stick with properly rated that's fine. Um,

0:28:51.000 --> 0:28:54.440
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, all the time, all the time. And there

0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:57.960
<v Speaker 1>is absolutely a generational divide and there is kind of

0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:01.920
<v Speaker 1>a weird grudging thing with on that I don't get, uh,

0:29:01.920 --> 0:29:05.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, whether it's just that Lebron's heyday is coincided

0:29:05.760 --> 0:29:08.000
<v Speaker 1>with what I guess you could call hater culture, you know,

0:29:08.040 --> 0:29:13.000
<v Speaker 1>where where everybody can be knocked down. But I to

0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:16.120
<v Speaker 1>me that if this isn't just my opinion. Now it's

0:29:16.440 --> 0:29:18.480
<v Speaker 1>the correct opinion, of course, but it's just my opinion

0:29:18.600 --> 0:29:22.040
<v Speaker 1>that that you know, Jordan's just the greatest winner ever

0:29:22.080 --> 0:29:24.160
<v Speaker 1>and if you and if there's going to be a separator,

0:29:24.200 --> 0:29:26.680
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be that until if Lebron gets to

0:29:26.760 --> 0:29:30.000
<v Speaker 1>six world titles, then then we can have that discussion.

0:29:30.040 --> 0:29:34.600
<v Speaker 1>But I think Jordan was a superior winner. Oh yeah,

0:29:34.080 --> 0:29:37.160
<v Speaker 1>and he has he has a different gene. But that

0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:39.920
<v Speaker 1>gene's going to come out in this documentary and people

0:29:39.960 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>are going to be a little bit uncomfortable with what

0:29:42.160 --> 0:29:45.959
<v Speaker 1>they see with Michael Jordan's personality. Back then, we knew it,

0:29:46.080 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 1>we saw it, we accepted it. That's just who he was.

0:29:49.880 --> 0:29:53.200
<v Speaker 1>But if Mike did what he did, you know back then,

0:29:53.280 --> 0:29:56.880
<v Speaker 1>did it now? Social media would would eat him alive,

0:29:57.720 --> 0:30:00.080
<v Speaker 1>no doubt, no doubt, punching teammates and that it's some

0:30:00.120 --> 0:30:02.760
<v Speaker 1>of the other stuff. Yeah, sure that he was. He

0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:07.400
<v Speaker 1>was excessive, and it was he was much more tolerant

0:30:07.400 --> 0:30:09.760
<v Speaker 1>back then than it would be today, for sure. Oh man,

0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:11.400
<v Speaker 1>all right, So I wanted to have you on for

0:30:11.440 --> 0:30:14.680
<v Speaker 1>a couple of reasons. Here you saw were Jalen Green,

0:30:14.760 --> 0:30:16.920
<v Speaker 1>who was the top high school kid out of Fresno.

0:30:17.120 --> 0:30:18.960
<v Speaker 1>He decided to go to the G League and they

0:30:19.040 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>sort of set up this separate G League accounter whatever

0:30:23.480 --> 0:30:25.800
<v Speaker 1>it is. It's like, come on in and you're going

0:30:25.840 --> 0:30:27.720
<v Speaker 1>to get a half million dollars and we'll get you

0:30:27.760 --> 0:30:30.120
<v Speaker 1>a shoe deal and you sort of hang out here

0:30:30.160 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 1>for a little while and develop, and then you'll go

0:30:32.720 --> 0:30:36.720
<v Speaker 1>into the draft next year. What exactly is this program?

0:30:36.760 --> 0:30:39.440
<v Speaker 1>It's like the commissioner's exemp list when he was, you know,

0:30:39.480 --> 0:30:41.920
<v Speaker 1>the NFL commissioner, where I didn't even know he had

0:30:41.920 --> 0:30:46.520
<v Speaker 1>an exemple list. I didn't know that G League had this. Yeah,

0:30:46.560 --> 0:30:50.040
<v Speaker 1>this is a very interesting development, and it seems to

0:30:50.080 --> 0:30:54.440
<v Speaker 1>me underscores what appears to be a bit of disdain

0:30:54.640 --> 0:30:58.160
<v Speaker 1>from the NBA side and out in silverside towards college basketball.

0:30:58.200 --> 0:31:02.120
<v Speaker 1>It's like, whether it's the the system is too corrupt

0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:04.760
<v Speaker 1>or it's just not producing foot players that are ready

0:31:04.880 --> 0:31:07.880
<v Speaker 1>enough or whatever I think he's gone from. Yes, I'll

0:31:07.920 --> 0:31:10.520
<v Speaker 1>work with the college game and you know, we'll eventually

0:31:10.560 --> 0:31:13.800
<v Speaker 1>get rid of the age minimum and you know, take

0:31:13.840 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 1>away some of the ambiguity of these guys that are

0:31:16.240 --> 0:31:17.960
<v Speaker 1>going to school for one year and just let them

0:31:17.960 --> 0:31:20.040
<v Speaker 1>go straight in. Now it's like, ah, we're just going

0:31:20.080 --> 0:31:22.000
<v Speaker 1>to go right to high school guys and we don't

0:31:22.040 --> 0:31:25.360
<v Speaker 1>care whether they come to you or not. And so

0:31:25.880 --> 0:31:29.040
<v Speaker 1>to me, it's that's a very interesting development. If they've

0:31:29.080 --> 0:31:31.920
<v Speaker 1>got that kind of money to throw around, kids are

0:31:31.920 --> 0:31:34.560
<v Speaker 1>going to be very interested in taking it. Now. It

0:31:34.640 --> 0:31:37.200
<v Speaker 1>may not be for many of them, but still, if

0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:40.840
<v Speaker 1>you're siphoning off those kind of kids, it definitely would

0:31:40.840 --> 0:31:43.960
<v Speaker 1>have an impact on the college game. And I mean

0:31:44.000 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 1>I wrote about this. Most college kids that they're guys

0:31:47.040 --> 0:31:49.000
<v Speaker 1>that are playing college basketball don't want to be there,

0:31:49.200 --> 0:31:52.400
<v Speaker 1>especially the good ones. You know, they absolutely pull up

0:31:52.440 --> 0:31:55.040
<v Speaker 1>dreaming of playing for North Carolina or Duke or Kentucky

0:31:55.120 --> 0:31:57.800
<v Speaker 1>or Kansas or UCLA or anyone else. They don't want

0:31:57.800 --> 0:32:00.400
<v Speaker 1>to be there. Well, Zion is the last He's the

0:32:00.480 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 1>last dinosaur, He's the anomaly here. But I'm wondering, and

0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about this superstar, But why wouldn't Adidas or

0:32:07.520 --> 0:32:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Nike just say, we're setting up our own little workshop here.

0:32:11.920 --> 0:32:15.520
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna pay you. We're gonna pay you whatever. We

0:32:15.560 --> 0:32:18.600
<v Speaker 1>have an academy. You come in and we'll give you

0:32:18.640 --> 0:32:20.920
<v Speaker 1>life skills. We'll teach out to balance a checkbook, we'll

0:32:20.920 --> 0:32:24.080
<v Speaker 1>teach about real estate. We'll have simulated games. We'll have

0:32:25.200 --> 0:32:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Nike former NBA players on staff who'll come in and

0:32:28.800 --> 0:32:31.880
<v Speaker 1>work you out and give you tips, advisors to help

0:32:31.920 --> 0:32:35.360
<v Speaker 1>you go into the NBA. Why not just do that,

0:32:35.560 --> 0:32:38.680
<v Speaker 1>get them under contract with a shoe deal, and send

0:32:38.720 --> 0:32:41.960
<v Speaker 1>them into the draft. To me, it feels like you

0:32:42.000 --> 0:32:44.720
<v Speaker 1>would be investing in your future if you're Nike or Adidas,

0:32:44.760 --> 0:32:46.400
<v Speaker 1>and then these kids who don't want to go to

0:32:46.440 --> 0:32:49.960
<v Speaker 1>school actually learn what they need to learn going into

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:53.640
<v Speaker 1>the NBA. I mean, it makes a lot of sense

0:32:53.680 --> 0:32:55.760
<v Speaker 1>on the face of it, you know, is that something

0:32:56.000 --> 0:32:58.760
<v Speaker 1>you prepare them in the ways that they need to

0:32:58.800 --> 0:33:00.640
<v Speaker 1>be prepared as far as the care of money, and

0:33:00.680 --> 0:33:03.840
<v Speaker 1>some life skills and that sort of thing, and then yeah,

0:33:03.920 --> 0:33:05.680
<v Speaker 1>you get them under your wing. And that's I mean,

0:33:05.880 --> 0:33:08.400
<v Speaker 1>so many of these players already are yes, you know,

0:33:08.640 --> 0:33:11.400
<v Speaker 1>considered didn't silos Nike there, that's a Nike kid, that's

0:33:11.400 --> 0:33:15.080
<v Speaker 1>an under Armor kid, that's Fadida's kid. So yeah, why

0:33:15.120 --> 0:33:19.320
<v Speaker 1>not extend it and further cut out the college middleman

0:33:19.440 --> 0:33:22.280
<v Speaker 1>so to speak? You know, I wouldn't be surprised if

0:33:22.280 --> 0:33:25.800
<v Speaker 1>those ideas are percolating in places even beyond the high

0:33:25.840 --> 0:33:28.960
<v Speaker 1>reaches of the Van Patrick Show. Pad forty Sports Illustrated

0:33:29.000 --> 0:33:32.760
<v Speaker 1>College Sports senior writer head Chris Fowler on the show

0:33:32.760 --> 0:33:35.400
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the week and we talked about if there's

0:33:35.400 --> 0:33:38.080
<v Speaker 1>going to be lost revenue with college football and the

0:33:38.160 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 1>trickle down with other sports. Here, I'm wondering, can you

0:33:42.200 --> 0:33:45.640
<v Speaker 1>rip up that contract that ESPN has with college football

0:33:45.880 --> 0:33:49.240
<v Speaker 1>with the Final four and then we extrapolate this and

0:33:49.320 --> 0:33:53.400
<v Speaker 1>make it the Sweet sixteen? You know, all options on

0:33:53.400 --> 0:33:56.320
<v Speaker 1>the table, but can we get do you think that

0:33:56.360 --> 0:34:00.920
<v Speaker 1>we can get to that point this year? College football

0:34:00.960 --> 0:34:03.400
<v Speaker 1>has been the hardest entity to get to change anything

0:34:03.680 --> 0:34:09.920
<v Speaker 1>over the centuries, but they've all contracts are made to

0:34:09.960 --> 0:34:12.560
<v Speaker 1>be broken, and there has never been a time that

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:16.879
<v Speaker 1>really looks as economically challenging as this one. So yeah,

0:34:17.280 --> 0:34:20.040
<v Speaker 1>it would not absolutely shock me. You know, they could

0:34:20.040 --> 0:34:21.839
<v Speaker 1>even fill it as a one time thing to see

0:34:21.880 --> 0:34:23.799
<v Speaker 1>how it goes, and then you know, if it's not good,

0:34:23.840 --> 0:34:27.239
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't go back the other way. But you know, the

0:34:27.480 --> 0:34:31.239
<v Speaker 1>football cash cow is so vital and if it's going

0:34:31.280 --> 0:34:33.480
<v Speaker 1>to be compromised, and I think we've already started to

0:34:33.480 --> 0:34:36.680
<v Speaker 1>see some of the repercussions of it, sports being cut

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 1>and pay cuts all over the place, and staff being reduced, furloughs,

0:34:41.000 --> 0:34:43.720
<v Speaker 1>all those sort of things. If there is an easy fix,

0:34:43.800 --> 0:34:48.920
<v Speaker 1>a relatively easy fix, sixteen playoffs, eighteen playoff, twelve team playoffs,

0:34:48.960 --> 0:34:52.680
<v Speaker 1>sixteen team playoff, one time only, let's see how it goes. Yeah,

0:34:52.719 --> 0:34:56.319
<v Speaker 1>I think it could happen. It's given the hunger in

0:34:56.440 --> 0:34:59.799
<v Speaker 1>sports media and in college athletics for revenue and what's

0:34:59.840 --> 0:35:01.839
<v Speaker 1>not coming in now and it may not come in

0:35:01.880 --> 0:35:05.480
<v Speaker 1>for several more months. Would not shock me. Uh, And

0:35:05.600 --> 0:35:08.879
<v Speaker 1>I just thought of this. J C. Daniels, the big

0:35:08.920 --> 0:35:13.000
<v Speaker 1>time recruit at USC, just entered the transfer portal. He

0:35:13.080 --> 0:35:15.839
<v Speaker 1>was you know, heralded as a you know, next great

0:35:15.920 --> 0:35:19.920
<v Speaker 1>quarterback at USC, and I started to think about this.

0:35:20.520 --> 0:35:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Did ed Orgeron recruit JT. Daniels at USC, and therefore

0:35:25.520 --> 0:35:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Joe Burrow is gone, Hey, come on down here to

0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:33.879
<v Speaker 1>baton rouge. I'm just thinking out loud here. Yeah, I'm

0:35:33.920 --> 0:35:38.080
<v Speaker 1>not sure. Maybe maybe some early stages recruiting, you know,

0:35:38.120 --> 0:35:41.280
<v Speaker 1>but JT. JT left high school actually a year early,

0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:45.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, so he was he was a young freshman

0:35:45.719 --> 0:35:48.120
<v Speaker 1>and he was a starter. But sure, I mean a

0:35:48.160 --> 0:35:51.560
<v Speaker 1>guy like that. Look, people really liked his talent um.

0:35:51.600 --> 0:35:53.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, he was thrown into the fire as a

0:35:53.680 --> 0:35:56.640
<v Speaker 1>young freshman. By the end of the year, he was

0:35:56.680 --> 0:35:59.440
<v Speaker 1>playing pretty well. The game against Notre Dame I remember

0:35:59.480 --> 0:36:02.799
<v Speaker 1>that he was good, and then you know, he gets

0:36:02.840 --> 0:36:04.880
<v Speaker 1>hurt the next year, and then Keaton Slovis comes in

0:36:04.880 --> 0:36:07.480
<v Speaker 1>and is really good and definitely the favorite of the

0:36:07.520 --> 0:36:10.200
<v Speaker 1>offensive coordinator, Graham Harrold. So, yeah, that this is a

0:36:10.280 --> 0:36:14.600
<v Speaker 1>high quality quarterback suddenly on the market. Now he's gonna

0:36:14.600 --> 0:36:18.800
<v Speaker 1>have to sit almost assuredly, but I would think he

0:36:18.800 --> 0:36:21.960
<v Speaker 1>would be super attractive to LSU and anybody else that

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:24.360
<v Speaker 1>needs a quarterback. Yeah. I know they got Myles Brennan,

0:36:24.440 --> 0:36:27.600
<v Speaker 1>but if if Edo recruited him when he was at

0:36:27.760 --> 0:36:31.799
<v Speaker 1>USC and I don't know, and just a thought. It's

0:36:31.840 --> 0:36:34.279
<v Speaker 1>a thought, Pat, That's all I do. I just think.

0:36:35.480 --> 0:36:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I think, you know what. We need your thoughts. Not

0:36:38.120 --> 0:36:40.920
<v Speaker 1>always we have nothing to do but think. Yeah, nothing

0:36:40.920 --> 0:36:42.600
<v Speaker 1>else to do. Hey, it's great to talk to you.

0:36:42.600 --> 0:36:46.320
<v Speaker 1>It's always help the family safe. And we'll keep reading

0:36:47.160 --> 0:36:51.239
<v Speaker 1>you two. Thanks Dan pad forty Sports Illustrated College Sports

0:36:54.120 --> 0:36:56.120

0:37:17.040 --> 0:37:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Check this out. Here's the pitch. The Schmidt brill card

0:37:20.080 --> 0:37:22.920
<v Speaker 1>left the old at in the alley that is gone

0:37:23.480 --> 0:37:26.320
<v Speaker 1>that the home run first twenty is at fourth grade.

0:37:27.080 --> 0:37:29.560
<v Speaker 1>He drilled it. It was not as hard at en

0:37:29.600 --> 0:37:32.480
<v Speaker 1>of the day, but he's got his fourth consecutive home

0:37:32.600 --> 0:37:36.440
<v Speaker 1>run on this date in nineteen seventy six at Wrigley.

0:37:37.480 --> 0:37:41.759
<v Speaker 1>Final score eighteen to sixteen Cubs against the Phillies, Mike

0:37:41.840 --> 0:37:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Schmidt became the tenth player ever to hit four homers

0:37:45.920 --> 0:37:49.040
<v Speaker 1>in a game. Today, eighteen players have done it. Little

0:37:49.040 --> 0:37:51.719
<v Speaker 1>Hall and Oates there, Philadelphia's own. That's courtesy of the

0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Phillies Radio Network. I don't know if Mike Schmidt is

0:37:55.600 --> 0:38:00.680
<v Speaker 1>the only guy who's ever homered off two brothers in

0:38:00.719 --> 0:38:03.239
<v Speaker 1>the same game. I think he hit a home run

0:38:03.280 --> 0:38:06.799
<v Speaker 1>off Rick Russell, maybe two off Rick Russell, and then

0:38:06.920 --> 0:38:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Rick's brother Paul came in, and I think he hit

0:38:09.960 --> 0:38:13.160
<v Speaker 1>his final home run off Paul Russell. Play of the Day.

<v Speaker 1>family today with the right estate plan at legal zoom

0:38:22.120 --> 0:38:24.200
<v Speaker 1>dot com. Yeah point yeah. Growing up a Cubs fan,

0:38:24.239 --> 0:38:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure why we're playing this because it seemed

0:38:26.080 --> 0:38:28.200
<v Speaker 1>to me that Mike Schmidt hit three home runs every

0:38:28.200 --> 0:38:30.040
<v Speaker 1>time he came to Rigley Field, and I think he

0:38:30.120 --> 0:38:32.040
<v Speaker 1>hit his career average is probably like seven to forty

0:38:32.120 --> 0:38:33.719
<v Speaker 1>or something. East. Yeah, I don't know why the Cubs

0:38:33.760 --> 0:38:37.400
<v Speaker 1>didn't try to trade for Mike Schmill. Yes, mclovin, I

0:38:37.440 --> 0:38:40.000
<v Speaker 1>would rush home for day games just to see Schmidt

0:38:40.000 --> 0:38:42.279
<v Speaker 1>play there. Well, I think the wind was blowing out

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:46.120
<v Speaker 1>that day, hence the eighteen to sixteen score. But Schmidty

0:38:46.760 --> 0:38:50.040
<v Speaker 1>following up with this same game plan blueprint as Hank

0:38:50.040 --> 0:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Aaron used his wrist and if you watched him, Schmidty,

0:38:53.160 --> 0:38:56.920
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't like using lower body as much or bat speed.

0:38:57.000 --> 0:38:59.680
<v Speaker 1>It was just the flick of the wrist. And Hank

0:38:59.719 --> 0:39:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Aaron did that, of course, and to me, the greatest

0:39:01.840 --> 0:39:04.279
<v Speaker 1>home run hitter of all time. Yes, Tom, I'm not

0:39:04.320 --> 0:39:06.279
<v Speaker 1>one to talk about the Rushell brothers. Those are some

0:39:06.320 --> 0:39:10.680
<v Speaker 1>big boys they were. Yes, you could have been the

0:39:10.719 --> 0:39:16.400
<v Speaker 1>third Russell brother. I think yes you did. Mcleve And

0:39:16.440 --> 0:39:18.960
<v Speaker 1>how are we on the poll question? So I did

0:39:19.000 --> 0:39:22.680
<v Speaker 1>put up Bulls Lakers Celtics. Bulls are the best team

0:39:22.719 --> 0:39:25.480
<v Speaker 1>from nineteen eighty to two thousand. Recentcy bias. But this

0:39:25.520 --> 0:39:29.560
<v Speaker 1>sparked another debate amongst the Danettes. Okay, so I'm not

0:39:29.560 --> 0:39:31.719
<v Speaker 1>gonna say which Danett it wasn't Paul. He said that

0:39:31.800 --> 0:39:36.200
<v Speaker 1>all Chicago has his documentaries about titles and Deep Dish Pizza,

0:39:36.520 --> 0:39:38.680
<v Speaker 1>which led us to a discussed. Wait wait, wait, that's

0:39:38.800 --> 0:39:43.759
<v Speaker 1>you who said that. Yes, that is me who said okay, okay, So,

0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:46.640
<v Speaker 1>which which of our cities the five of us has

0:39:46.680 --> 0:39:50.160
<v Speaker 1>the best signature of food? Now? Philadelphia obviously has cheese stakes,

0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:53.239
<v Speaker 1>which you had yesterday, which stouted delicious. Yeah, they were good.

0:39:53.600 --> 0:39:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I think I have the best signature of food. Is

0:39:56.520 --> 0:39:58.400
<v Speaker 1>there anyone in the room that has a better one?

0:39:58.440 --> 0:40:00.640
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not a deep dish pizza guy. I like

0:40:00.719 --> 0:40:05.239
<v Speaker 1>thin crust. Brooklyn pizza is better than Chicago, thank you.

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm from Cincinnati. I get Skyline and gold Star chili,

0:40:08.320 --> 0:40:16.919
<v Speaker 1>which overrated. Yeah, what's Jersey have? Pork roll? Pork roll?

0:40:17.600 --> 0:40:20.920
<v Speaker 1>It a pork pawk off pork roll. By the way,

0:40:20.960 --> 0:40:23.640
<v Speaker 1>It's probably one of the finest things ever created that

0:40:23.680 --> 0:40:26.560
<v Speaker 1>nobody knows about. But it is just what are the

0:40:26.680 --> 0:40:29.160
<v Speaker 1>ingredients of a pork roll? Aside from the pork and

0:40:29.200 --> 0:40:31.920
<v Speaker 1>the roll. I think it's like the Bye products. It's

0:40:31.960 --> 0:40:35.200
<v Speaker 1>like it's sort of like a scrapple kind of thing. Man,

0:40:35.239 --> 0:40:37.120
<v Speaker 1>you get a pork roll, egg and cheese, We'll salt

0:40:37.160 --> 0:40:39.800
<v Speaker 1>pepper catch up on there. Oh man, is that living?

0:40:40.920 --> 0:40:47.200
<v Speaker 1>Where did White Castle originate? Ohio? Is it Okay, I

0:40:47.239 --> 0:40:49.840
<v Speaker 1>mean it's Ohio. It was one of the food staples

0:40:49.880 --> 0:40:53.040
<v Speaker 1>that I had growing up, usually after eleven o'clock at night.

0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:57.960
<v Speaker 1>White Castle that rivals gold Star and Skyline Chili in

0:40:58.000 --> 0:41:04.360
<v Speaker 1>my opinion, just my opinion. Well, you know what Wichita Actually, yeah,

0:41:04.400 --> 0:41:09.160
<v Speaker 1>that's well, but they're headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Now, well

0:41:09.200 --> 0:41:11.920
<v Speaker 1>we'll take credit for that state of Ohio. Yeah. As

0:41:11.920 --> 0:41:14.080
<v Speaker 1>a Chicago guy, I don't think I want pizza as

0:41:14.120 --> 0:41:17.240
<v Speaker 1>my signature for the city. I like Chicago deep dish pizza,

0:41:17.280 --> 0:41:19.040
<v Speaker 1>but I think even new Haven might be better. And

0:41:19.080 --> 0:41:22.279
<v Speaker 1>there's some good Chicago You think new Haven might be better? Yeah,

0:41:22.320 --> 0:41:26.120
<v Speaker 1>I think it is. New Haven is the greatest pizzas

0:41:26.160 --> 0:41:28.920
<v Speaker 1>spot in the world. I agree. I like some Chicago

0:41:28.960 --> 0:41:30.840
<v Speaker 1>deep just pieces, but some of them are too big.

0:41:31.120 --> 0:41:34.080
<v Speaker 1>I would say Italian beef sandwiches for Chicago would be

0:41:34.120 --> 0:41:36.680
<v Speaker 1>if you're a local, if you're a true Chicago boy,

0:41:36.920 --> 0:41:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Chicago style hot dogs are great, uh deep just pizzas great,

0:41:39.960 --> 0:41:42.040
<v Speaker 1>But I think the Italian beef sandwiches with the sport

0:41:42.040 --> 0:41:45.080
<v Speaker 1>peppers and the different types of peppers and dipped oh

0:41:45.160 --> 0:41:48.160
<v Speaker 1>yeah that yeah, I think that's in the stance with

0:41:48.239 --> 0:41:50.279
<v Speaker 1>your elbows out. I think that's what people with in

0:41:50.320 --> 0:41:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Chicago going. Yes, Eton, that is probably the best thing

0:41:53.719 --> 0:41:56.720
<v Speaker 1>I've ever had on the trigger for a meat Friday.

0:41:56.920 --> 0:41:58.239
<v Speaker 1>Was just I want to say, it was just in

0:41:58.280 --> 0:42:01.160
<v Speaker 1>the last couple of months we made it. Italian beef sandwiches,

0:42:01.360 --> 0:42:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god. I think about them almost every day

0:42:04.760 --> 0:42:08.319
<v Speaker 1>about how great it was. I did. You don't think

0:42:08.360 --> 0:42:11.120
<v Speaker 1>of your family every day, but you know, if they

0:42:11.200 --> 0:42:13.560
<v Speaker 1>came in with Italian beef sandwiches, I would be like, oh,

0:42:13.640 --> 0:42:16.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, hey, you guys are here, Grace man, I'm

0:42:16.000 --> 0:42:19.200
<v Speaker 1>happy to see you, honey. A couple of things. The

0:42:19.360 --> 0:42:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Cleveland Browns continued to deny that there's anything to the

0:42:22.360 --> 0:42:26.279
<v Speaker 1>Odell Beckham Junior trade report now wanting to report, you know,

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:30.200
<v Speaker 1>in fairness to the radio host at wfa N, it

0:42:30.320 --> 0:42:32.840
<v Speaker 1>was I'm hearing. It wasn't a report, I'm it was

0:42:33.080 --> 0:42:35.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, the dangerous I'm hearing. And then people took

0:42:35.600 --> 0:42:37.320
<v Speaker 1>off with it. They took off with it for a

0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:41.919
<v Speaker 1>couple of reasons, because it's Odell Beckham Junior and these

0:42:41.920 --> 0:42:45.680
<v Speaker 1>have been slow newsdays. Now. Could it still happen, Yes,

0:42:45.760 --> 0:42:48.600
<v Speaker 1>But as I told you, you know, the person I

0:42:48.640 --> 0:42:52.680
<v Speaker 1>reached out to my source said, why would Mike Zimmer

0:42:52.719 --> 0:42:55.680
<v Speaker 1>bring in another headache after just getting rid of another headache?

0:42:55.680 --> 0:43:00.000
<v Speaker 1>And Stefan dis You forget Odell Beckham is only twenty seven.

0:43:00.360 --> 0:43:02.600
<v Speaker 1>And when I asked Boomera, a science and form an

0:43:02.640 --> 0:43:05.799
<v Speaker 1>NFL quarterback, of course the NFL analyst, I said, when

0:43:05.800 --> 0:43:08.440
<v Speaker 1>did it start to change for Odell Beckham? And he

0:43:08.480 --> 0:43:13.960
<v Speaker 1>said when he did that interview? Who was he? Who

0:43:14.040 --> 0:43:18.000
<v Speaker 1>was the rapper who interviewed him? Little Wayne? Is that right?

0:43:18.120 --> 0:43:20.880
<v Speaker 1>And Little Wayne asked him about Eli and he couldn't

0:43:20.920 --> 0:43:23.800
<v Speaker 1>say anything nice about Eli Manning. And then it felt

0:43:23.840 --> 0:43:28.359
<v Speaker 1>like he'd sort of talked to his way out of

0:43:28.360 --> 0:43:30.760
<v Speaker 1>New York. And then you go to the Cleveland Browns

0:43:30.880 --> 0:43:33.000
<v Speaker 1>and look, if there's no secret of the fact that

0:43:33.040 --> 0:43:36.200
<v Speaker 1>he didn't want to go to Cleveland. He waited forever

0:43:36.880 --> 0:43:40.120
<v Speaker 1>to go to Cleveland, like physically go to Cleveland. And

0:43:40.239 --> 0:43:42.200
<v Speaker 1>when he got there, all he kept talking about was

0:43:42.920 --> 0:43:44.640
<v Speaker 1>how angry he was, or he's going to get back

0:43:44.640 --> 0:43:47.879
<v Speaker 1>of the Giants. He still hasn't left the Giants, I think,

0:43:48.400 --> 0:43:52.239
<v Speaker 1>but if you get him to understand collectively, you guys

0:43:52.320 --> 0:43:55.560
<v Speaker 1>could do something special this year and it'd actually be

0:43:55.560 --> 0:43:58.319
<v Speaker 1>better for Baker if he didn't have Odell. In my opinion, there,

0:43:59.120 --> 0:44:01.719
<v Speaker 1>if you got a young receiver in the draft, and

0:44:02.120 --> 0:44:06.000
<v Speaker 1>because you want to focus on Odell because he's so talented,

0:44:06.320 --> 0:44:09.000
<v Speaker 1>but I think it disrupts the flow of the offense there.

0:44:09.000 --> 0:44:13.320
<v Speaker 1>But from what I'm told that the Vikings were probably

0:44:13.360 --> 0:44:16.440
<v Speaker 1>looking to draft a wide receiver, not bring in Odell

0:44:16.520 --> 0:44:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Beckham Junior. The third, we'll talk to the director of

0:44:19.560 --> 0:44:24.080
<v Speaker 1>the Chicago Bowls Last Dance documentary. He'll join us PGA

0:44:24.120 --> 0:44:28.319
<v Speaker 1>Commissioner j Monahan will join us Golf's person Its Way

0:44:28.360 --> 0:44:32.279
