In fact, 39 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: my last game that I worked. They were stunned when 40 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 2: I made an announcement that I was going to be 41 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 2: leaving the Raiders, like, no one. 42 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 4: Who was the head coach at that time? Who was 43 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 4: head coach? 44 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: Okay, so this is uh you want to hear show 45 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: I date myself here for a second. 46 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 4: I'll date myself as well. I graduated high school in 47 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 4: eighty eight. 48 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: Okay, well, you know, well, I'm twelve years before you 49 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: on that one, So I got plenty of time before you. 50 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 3: So anyway, I turned thirty in nineteen eighty eight. 51 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 2: But in nineteen when I first joined the Raiders in 52 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 2: eighty four, they were coming off their big, smashing Super 53 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 2: Bowl victory over the Redskins and was their third Super 54 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 2: Bowl title in eight years, first l eighteen to win 55 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl, and they promised me that I would 56 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 2: get many rings, and they haven't won one since. 57 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 3: That's what we call the Hartman curse. 58 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 2: And so anyway, so Tom Flores obviously was the coach 59 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 2: of the Raiders when I first got there, But in 60 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty eight, Flores left on his own and we 61 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: brought in a thirty five year old quarterback coach from 62 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos by the name of Mike Shanahan. And 63 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: so I am introducing I am running the press conference 64 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: to introduce our new thirty five year old coach, and 65 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 2: he introduces me to his eight year old son, Kyle. 66 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 4: I was just gonna say it was Kyle and diapers. 67 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 3: Eight years old? 68 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 4: Was Kyle baby City Christian Miccaffrey. 69 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 2: At that time, it was it was unbelievable how about 70 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 2: this Howie Long. You know, his two oldest sons, Chris 71 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: and Kyle Bolth, played in the NFL. I actually I 72 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: was actually holding Chris Long as a baby when he 73 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: was born. 74 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 3: I couldn't hold him anymore. 75 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 4: Really, like you really are dating yourself. 76 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: I really am dating myself. 77 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 4: Maybe maybe we should, maybe we should move on. 78 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: So anyway, yes, I met Kyle Shanahan when he was 79 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: eight years old. That anyway, The bottom line here is 80 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 2: is that we got a lot of craziness around the NFL, 81 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: and I really want to start with that right now. 82 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: I need because we have you know, I mean, quarterbacks 83 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: are always and people say, well, you talk about quarterbacks 84 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: at nauseum. 85 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 3: There's a reason there. 86 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: There's no bigger position in any sport than quarterback. 87 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 3: Quarterback, Yes, I mean, you just have. It's so much. 88 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: Not only do they have to run their offense, essentially 89 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: become the face of your franchise. 90 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 3: And if you have a. 91 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 2: Successful quarterback, then you're basically perceived as a successful organization. 92 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 2: And if you're failing to find that quarterback, then you 93 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 2: are a failed organization. So yeah, a lot rides on quarterback. 94 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 2: But let's start with the two guys that we knew 95 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: were going to change teams. That would be Kyler Murray 96 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 2: leaving Arizona and to a Tongua Bylaw leaving Miami. Both 97 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 2: were really the right guys or teams that didn't have 98 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: a lot of cap space because they would only cast 99 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: you the league men of one point three million because 100 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 2: their former teams would pay the rest of their salaries. 101 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: So I'm want to ask you top right now, who 102 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: gets a better deal on a personal level and then 103 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 2: from a team level Tua going to Atlanta and Kyler 104 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: going to Minnesota. 105 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 4: Well, okay, let's start. Let's start with Tua right like 106 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 4: never and just you know, I just want to be 107 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 4: totally transparent from Miami from the three zero five. Grew 108 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 4: up a huge Dolphins fan, was never sold on Tua. 109 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 4: Thought it was the wrong decision, felt like the organization 110 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 4: really dropped the ball by not drafting Justin Herbert over Tua. 111 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 4: So have never been a part of the Tua fan club, 112 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 4: So no surprise that he is no longer in Miami. 113 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 4: Reports are that he's going to Atlanta to compete, quote 114 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 4: unquote compete with Pennick Junior, who probably is not going 115 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 4: to be ready to go at the start of the 116 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 4: season because of his injury, So Tua will probably start 117 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 4: with the Atlanta Falcons. I think they'll be good. I 118 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 4: don't think that they will be great. I really like 119 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 4: the situation for Murray Kyler Murray in Minnesota. I think 120 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 4: he's got a lot more weapons to work with. I 121 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 4: love his head coach. I like his offensive line. He's 122 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 4: got a solid defense. He's playing in a dome the 123 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 4: majority of the time. And just as I'm not, I 124 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 4: was not sold onto him, never sold on JJ McCarthy. 125 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 4: Great what he did with Michigan. They ran the ball 126 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 4: a lot. He's more of a of a captain, checked 127 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 4: down quarterback. He's not going to put a team on 128 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 4: his shoulder pads and win it for you. And and 129 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 4: I'm not saying that Murray is the end all be all, 130 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 4: but I do believe that Murray is a better quarterback. 131 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 4: I think the Vikings can get uber creative with him offensively. 132 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 4: He's got a lot more weapons that he's working with 133 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 4: in Minnesota than he was in Arizona. And not that 134 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 4: Arizona has bad weather, I'm not saying that, but there 135 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 4: is something about a little men who play in the 136 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 4: dome who don't have to worry about weather conditions the 137 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 4: majority of the time because typically little men have little hands, 138 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 4: and little hands don't do well in bad weather conditions 139 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 4: on a football. So I think this is I think 140 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 4: this is a really good spot for him. If he 141 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 4: could stop playing video games and watch more game film, 142 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 4: I think that will help him out tremendously. But needless 143 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 4: to say, to answer your question, very long winded. Sorry, 144 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 4: not sorry, I think Murray got the better deal here. 145 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: Well, I think both teams actually made very smart moves 146 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 2: here because you talk about this amazing quarterback class we 147 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 2: have from a couple of years ago, six quarterbacks taken 148 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: in the first twelve picks, and four of them have 149 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: already proven it. I mean four of them have already 150 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 2: gone to the playoffs. So you know, Jad and Daniels 151 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: obviously had a phenomenal rookie season, had some injuries. I'm 152 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: hoping for his sake he can bounce back and we 153 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: can see some of what we saw in his fabulous 154 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: rookie season, and of course breakout years for Caleb Williams 155 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: and Drake May and Bo Nix is two for two 156 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 2: as far as making the playoffs, unfortunate an injury for 157 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: him obviously in this past postseason, and then you got 158 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 2: the Michael Pennock situation, who could never stay healthy when 159 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 2: he was Indiana, had a great two year at Washington, 160 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, now injuries are back, and 161 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 2: the whole JJ McCarthy situation. Look, Kevin O'Connell has an 162 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 2: offense with some of the elite wide receivers in the league. 163 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: How is it possible when you think about Minnesota with 164 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: that great defense that they have and the elite receivers they. 165 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: Had, they were twenty ninth in the league in passing offense. 166 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy cannot execute the offense that Kevin O'Connell wants. Now, 167 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 2: I will say this, and you brought up a great 168 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: point about Kyler Murray and all the reports that he 169 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: really is one of those I sort of fly by 170 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: the seat of my pants. 171 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 3: I'm not a real film guy. 172 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 2: You're gonna have to be with Kevin O'Connell because they 173 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: are looking for an answer. They have too good of 174 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: a defense, too much talent on that team to waste 175 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: it on a passing game that cannot execute. And Kyler 176 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: Murray certainly is capable of executing an offense, but he's 177 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 2: gonna have to get on the same page with Kevin O'Connell. 178 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 2: But that raises the question, now though, what if because 179 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: both Murray and Too are on one year deals, what 180 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: if they have breakout seasons? I mean, do you just 181 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 2: give up on what were top picks? I mean, both 182 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: of these guys were what top ten picks in the draft? 183 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: Do you give up on them to keep them around? 184 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: Eventually? 185 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 2: Those rookie contracts are coming up, and so that's sort 186 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: of the dilemma, and you know, what kind of money 187 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 2: are we looking at? I If Kyler Murray or to 188 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 2: a tongue of Ailoa has a big season, are they 189 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 2: back in the mix for you know, forty to fifty 190 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: sixty million dollars a year. So this is the tricky 191 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 2: part for both Atlanta and Minnesota and signing these quarterbacks 192 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 2: because what happens if they're actually good? What do you 193 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: do with your rookie from a couple of years ago? 194 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 2: And how much money are you going to commit down 195 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 2: the road for these two guys. 196 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, listen, let's let's rewind in regard to you know, 197 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 4: Arizona and they pivoted immediately. Was it Josh Josh Rosen Rosen. Yeah, 198 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 4: they went out, they drafted Josh Rosen, by the way, 199 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 4: and then. 200 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: Quick Starr on that on Josh Rosen because I knew 201 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 2: somebody played for the Cardinals obviously, you know, I was 202 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: on one to Uclaam a UCLA guy. But what the 203 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 2: hell happened here? I mean, I've been watching Josh Rosen 204 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 2: since high school. 205 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 4: I heard silverspoon. I heard silverspoon. 206 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 2: They said it was more than that. They said he 207 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: could not read defenses, like basic reads. Like you were, like, 208 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 2: I go, he's a smart guy. I mean, they go 209 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 2: football IQ Crater, like they could not believe his inability 210 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: to read defenses, which is so vital obviously when you're 211 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 2: playing quarterback at the NFL level. And that's why after 212 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 2: one year they were able to snake a second round 213 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 2: pick from Miami to dump them off and they like 214 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: found out the exact same thing. All right, continue on. 215 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean, so I just I share that 216 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 4: story just to say, and I want to say it 217 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 4: was Steve Kime, right, Steve Khime, who was the general 218 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 4: manager at the time, And like, I commend a general 219 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 4: manager and I commend a team for doing that because 220 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 4: I don't think fans realize. A lot of times a 221 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 4: general manager will make a decision on a player and 222 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 4: like they will hitch their wagon to that player and 223 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 4: they will they will ride that player to the death, 224 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 4: and usually it is a death right where I'm like, 225 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 4: I like, you know, don't cut off your nose despite 226 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 4: your face. See the forest for the trees, like if 227 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 4: you like, we are all human. We make mistakes. And 228 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 4: I commend general managers who are like, oh, snap, you 229 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 4: know what I screwed up. I've got a pivot. And 230 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 4: that's exactly what Arizona did. So I think, in essence, 231 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 4: I think the Vikings by bringing in Murray, I think 232 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 4: they're kind of alluding to the fact that they made 233 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 4: a missay. And not only do they, in my opinion, Steve, 234 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 4: not only did they make a mistake in drafting JJ McCarthy. 235 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 4: You let the Super Bowl quarterback go? 236 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you had. 237 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 4: Sam Donald in the building, and listen, I'm not saying 238 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 4: Sam Donald is the end all be all. Sam Donald 239 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 4: won a Super Bowl because he played for a team 240 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 4: that had a phenomenal defense and also an offense that 241 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 4: worked to his skill set, and a lot of times 242 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 4: that's what you need in the NFL in order to 243 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 4: be successful, and I felt the Vikings did that for Sam, 244 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 4: but they let them go, so you know, I just 245 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 4: you know, we'll see what happens again. I'm higher on 246 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 4: Murray than I am on Tua. If I had to 247 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 4: wager that one of these quarterbacks is going to have 248 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,119 Speaker 4: a better stat line, is going to win more games 249 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 4: for their team or their franchise, I would put my 250 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 4: money on Murray. But only time will tell. 251 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. 252 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, bottom line is, the Vikings are a 253 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 2: better team than the Falcons, although the Falcons do play 254 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: in a weaker division. 255 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 3: All Right, we have a lot of NFL news we're 256 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 3: going to get to. 257 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 2: There's still a lot of available free agents, plus what 258 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 2: the heck happened with the Max Crosby deal to the Ravens. 259 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 3: We'll get all to that boy. 260 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 2: But in the meantime, I also want to mix him 261 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 2: because we have a need to hear some of her picks. 262 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: We got basketball galore today, how about the big Saint 263 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 2: John's Yukon matchup?

As far as the nca tournament, is concerned, 311 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: and there's even been people saying, well, we should go bigger, 312 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 2: and I like, why bigger? You already have the conference tournaments. 313 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: Understand this, there are very few exceptions. Most conference tournaments 314 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 2: are all inclusive. There are a few that will you know, 315 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 2: you say, some of our bottom feeders will not participate. 316 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 2: For for the most part, just about every Division one school, 317 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: we'll over three hundred have an opportunity to at the 318 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 2: very least compete in their conference tournament. And remember, you 319 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: win that conference tournament, you get the automatic bid, so 320 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 2: you have to expand you have the expansions called the 321 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 2: conference tournament. But Anita to me, these conference tournament games 322 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 2: are very difficult to predict because ultimately, no one really 323 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: remembers what you do in a conference tournament. All they 324 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: remember is what you do in the big dance. And 325 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 2: I've talked to many coaches over the years and their frustration, like, 326 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 2: you know, we had a great regular season, we won 327 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: our conference tournament, and we go down in the second 328 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 2: round of the NC tournament and that's all people remember. 329 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 2: You remember Yukon in twenty eleven, that incredible year where 330 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: they were the nine seed in the Big East tournament 331 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: and they won five games in five days. Think about that, 332 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 2: five games and five days. They didn't have a single 333 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 2: night off led by Kemba Walker Jim Calhoun the coach, 334 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 2: and you thought they're totally gassed, and then they're going 335 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 2: to win the NCAA Championship that year. So I want 336 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 2: to get some of your picks and some of the 337 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 2: games later on today, some of your best picks. 338 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 3: But how difficult is it for you to sort of 339 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: decide for which schools. 340 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 2: Are very much into playing the game as opposed to 341 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: those that, well, we know we're in the Big Dance 342 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 2: and are we going to expend a lot of energy 343 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 2: in a conference tournament game? 344 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 4: So again, full transparency with me, I really don't start 345 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 4: paying attention to college basketball until like right about now. 346 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 4: I just don't like, there's only so much bandwidth in 347 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 4: regard to like sports that I can watch, And obviously 348 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 4: I think with both of us, football is king. So 349 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 4: typically what happens with me is, you know, these these 350 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 4: conference semi finals, these conference finals, That's when I really 351 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 4: start paying attention. I start doing a really deep dive 352 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 4: in regard to these matchups. What makes these teams tick? 353 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 4: How good they are in regard to backcourt, front court, 354 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:57,719 Speaker 4: all of that, and then I love selection Sunday Monday morning. 355 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 4: I'm a woman possessed the don't call me, don't text me, 356 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 4: don't like IM. 357 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 2: Okay, start by for a second. I gotta figure this out, 358 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 2: all right. First of all, I'm one of those people, 359 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,719 Speaker 2: and I think you might agree with me on this one. 360 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 2: When we talk about the first Thursday and Friday of 361 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 2: the NCAA tournament and you have sixteen games on Thursday 362 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 2: and you have sixty days, well they should be national holidays, 363 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 2: because who doesn't fell out of bracket even if you 364 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 2: haven't watched a single basketball game the entire year and 365 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 2: have not a clue who anybody is on any team. 366 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 3: Maybe you know a few of the coaches. 367 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 2: Everyone's got a bracket, and all you're doing on those 368 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 2: first two days on Thursday and Friday is staring at 369 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 2: your bracket, right, I mean, you know it could be 370 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 2: busted after a couple of days, but for two days, 371 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 2: two days. Last year, By the way, Anita here at 372 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, we all have to make our picks. 373 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 3: I was sixteen and O day watch.

I 376 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 2: could not believe it. I had actually I didn't win. 377 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 2: Ultimately a out of my teens went down. But the 378 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,360 Speaker 2: first day I was sixteen, and oh, I couldn't believe it. 379 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 2: Now I've been doing practice for forty years anyway, so 380 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 2: they say. 381 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 4: But really quick, they say that you are more than 382 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 4: likely to be hit by lightning then to get a 383 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 4: bracket one hundred correct. 384 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: Well, no one's ever done it, there's no there's no 385 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,959 Speaker 2: documented evidence anywhere. 386 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 4: I wonder, don't you wonder any complete do you ever? 387 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 4: You ever want? 388 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 3: Even computers have done it. 389 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 4: Like how close someone has has come to day and 390 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 4: age with with like chat, GBT and AI and you know, 391 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 4: and and how it well, how their analytics could be. 392 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 4: That's pretty interesting. 393 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: Well, one of the major sports outlets, you know, does 394 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 2: an annual and they get millions of entries, right, And 395 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 2: I think they said someone even if you get to 396 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 2: the next second weekend, like if you get if you 397 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 2: have a perfect bracket through the first two rounds, I mean, 398 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 2: it's so rare that you would get that far. Like 399 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 2: I said, I got to one day. Okay, I didn't 400 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 2: get through days two, three, and four, which would be 401 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 2: the first week of the tournament. But there are people 402 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 2: have had perfect brackets going to the Sweet sixteen. I've 403 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 2: never heard of anyone have a perfect bracket getting to 404 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: the final four. 405 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 4: I love that. But but to your question, you know, 406 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 4: should should Thursday and Friday be holidays? 407 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 2: I think? 408 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 4: You know, I argue, like, just like, by the way, 409 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 4: just like I think the Monday after super Bowl should 410 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 4: be a holiday, right, like, like how much how much 411 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 4: productivity are you getting done at work on on the 412 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 4: Monday after the super Bowl? More than likely none. But nonetheless, 413 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 4: one of my and I mentioned this last week on 414 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 4: the show, one of my bucket lists is to be 415 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 4: in Las Vegas at a sports book on Thursday and 416 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 4: Friday at the weekend. Like like that's like that is 417 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 4: that is a bucket list for me, huge, huge, huge 418 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 4: bucket list. But I will say this, I already have 419 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 4: my Thursday and Friday planned out where me and a 420 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 4: bunch of friends are going into the city.

Right, So so 435 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 4: I'm I'm in like a gazillion pools. I do have 436 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 4: some pools where you have a total of like, no 437 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 4: more than five brackets. I have some no, no more 438 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 4: than three brackets, and I have somewhere you're only allowed 439 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 4: to enter one. So I do a variety of those, 440 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 4: and then and then like Monday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, leading up, 441 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 4: I just I do immense, immense research. I'm reading everything 442 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 4: I can, I'm watching everything I can. I'm I'm sinning, 443 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 4: I'm texting you know, college basketball coaches, former basketball coaches, really, 444 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: you know college basketball analysts that I really really respect 445 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 4: and have covered teams and watch teams all season long. 446 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 2: Well, it's all about matchups. See, that is the whole 447 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 2: thing I have seen. You know, my UCLA Bruins have 448 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 2: sometimes exceeded I mean, you know, not that long ago 449 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one. They went from the first four barely 450 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 2: beating Michigan State in the first four, big comfort behind. 451 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: Got all the way to the final. 452 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 2: Four, and if it wasn't for a half court shot 453 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 2: mirago By Gonzaga could have been in the championship game. 454 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 3: But that's the key. 455 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 2: It's sort of like you know, raiding horses at a 456 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 2: horse race, right, you have to sort of get a 457 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 2: sense of each individual horse, and then it's all about matchups. 458 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 2: Of course, the problem is when you fill out your brackets, 459 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 2: you can't predict upsets where a team that you thought, well, 460 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,159 Speaker 2: they're going to go down in the second round because 461 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 2: that team is better, and then that team gets upset 462 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 2: and they're not there and that's right, and then. 463 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 4: The matchup and then the matchup you're anticipating doesn't materialize exactly. 464 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, So sometimes they skate through all. 465 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 4: Right, listen, at the end of the day, let's just 466 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 4: put a big green bow on this conversation, and like, 467 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 4: you know, I think we're both in agreement. Like football 468 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 4: is King or Queen. It really is. It's what drives 469 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 4: our sports universe. There's no denying that. Even though, by 470 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 4: the way, this is a conversation for a totally different show, 471 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,680 Speaker 4: even though the product is just so bad, football still 472 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,479 Speaker 4: drives everything. Yes, but to me, this is there's this 473 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,400 Speaker 4: is second best. This is better than college basketball college football. 474 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: To me, the. 475 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 4: NCAA tournament, filling out your bracket, watching you know it 476 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,119 Speaker 4: all play out Sweet sixteen Elite eight Final four championship. 477 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 4: Like to me, like those what four weeks three plus 478 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 4: weeks of the calendar of sports, calendar year, Steve nothing better. 479 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 3: Well, first of all, we know this. We know this. 480 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: There are way more people that fill out brackets than 481 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 2: bet on the Super Bowl. There is no sporting event 482 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 2: where more people participate in terms of everyone fills out 483 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 2: a bracket. Everybody at your office, everybody is filling out 484 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,719 Speaker 2: a bracket. I was at the TV. I mean the 485 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 2: quick story here, this is about ten years ago, was 486 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, and I'm doing it. Was a selection Sunday 487 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: and one of our news anchors, she knows zero about sports. 488 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 2: She goes, I want to fill out a bracket. I said, fine, 489 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 2: so I enter a bracket. She's looking at the bracket. 490 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 2: She goes, where's ball Street. 491 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 3: I go, no, no, no.

I pick North 494 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 2: Carolina to win it all. They face each other in 495 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 2: the championship game.

I love mccronan. 604 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 3: I'm a UCLA grad, obviously, I'm a Ucla fan. I 605 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 3: like his style. 606 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 2: He's aggressive, you know, he's five foot seven, he's a 607 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 2: dynamo and everything else. But if anything, he was playing 608 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 2: a lot of mind games because after they beat Rutgers, 609 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 2: you know, rematch with Michigan State. All right, they slaughtered 610 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 2: you once, they're going to slaughter you again. And he's like, yeah, 611 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 2: we have no chance. You know, we have no size. 612 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 2: I mean, we got four guards out there. They're too 613 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: physical for us. And then UCLA goes out and beats 614 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 2: Michigan State with their leading scorer, Tyler Billodo on the 615 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: bench for the entire second half. 616 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 3: So that was an unbelievable win for them. 617 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 2: They played frantic, according to Tom Izzoy, because that UCLA 618 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 2: team played frantic, meaning they were into the game. Now, 619 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 2: they'll play Purdue, a team that they beat at Pauley 620 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 2: Pavilion earlier, big upset earlier in the season. So break 621 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 2: it down for a sneita. How do you see this 622 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 2: matchup between Purdue and Ucla. 623 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna lay the points here with Purdue. As 624 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 4: you said, Bruins, really they're playing lights out. One might 625 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 4: argue their best basketball of the season, really impressive their 626 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 4: win against Michigan State. But you know, as you said, 627 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 4: that style will play. I just wonder coming into this 628 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 4: game how much gas they still have, especially with Tyler 629 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 4: be out as you mentioned, because of the knee injury 630 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,479 Speaker 4: that he suffered. All the reports are he's not going 631 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 4: to play in this game. They're gonna save him, of 632 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 4: course for the Big Dance. Meanwhile, Purdue they're playing just 633 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 4: as well. They did not have a tough game against 634 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 4: the corn Huskers, right, so they're they're coming in. You know, 635 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 4: their guys didn't play a lot of minutes. They rotated 636 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 4: a lot of players. I think they're gonna have a 637 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 4: little bit more gas. In the take. They took down 638 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 4: Northwestern and the Brass combined twenty nine points, So I 639 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 4: wouldn't be surprised if this game is closed. But I 640 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 4: think toward at the end, I think Purdue has a 641 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 4: little bit more gas and I think they pull away. 642 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,959 Speaker 4: So I'm going to lay the seven with Purdue. 643 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 3: I would tend to agree with you on this one. 644 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 2: And I hate to say that, and maybe I'm playing 645 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:21,320 Speaker 2: a low reverse psychology, but UCLA by winning that game 646 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 2: against Michigan State probably elevated They're seeding into that seven range. 647 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say right now, I think most bracketologies had 648 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 2: him like an eight. Uh. But you win against Michigan 649 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 2: State and you win against Izzo, especially when you're down 650 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 2: a man, I think that's going to impress people. So 651 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 2: unless they get annihilated by Purdue like you know, twenty 652 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 2: five point blowout, I think UCLA should hang on to 653 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 2: probably a seventh seed. All right. The coaching matchup in 654 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 2: this Big East Final, I mean yeah, I mean you 655 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 2: got yeah, Danny Hurley, whose brother, of course got fired. 656 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 2: It's amazing that Bobby Hurley hung on as long as 657 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 2: he did at Arizona State in eleven years. I mean, 658 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 2: because he really didn't do anything special during that long 659 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 2: run at Arizona State. But you know, for Yukon, it's 660 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 2: it's bounced back here. You know, they didn't after winning 661 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 2: back to back championships, it didn't really materialize. 662 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 3: Last year they played. 663 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 2: Well, and then you got Rick Patino, who was disappointed 664 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 2: last year losing to you know his man, John Calip Perry, 665 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 2: I say that tongue in cheek last year in the 666 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 2: NCAA tournament. You know he's trying to get you know, 667 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 2: his Saint John's team a little bit deeper this year. 668 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 2: So how do you look at this Big East Final 669 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 2: matchup between Yukon and Saint John's. 670 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is taking place just probably a seven iron 671 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 4: from where I'm broadcasting from right now. I do like 672 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 4: Saint John's and I like the fact that I'm getting 673 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 4: the points. You're getting them at plus two and a half. 674 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 4: You know, if you want to play them on the 675 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 4: money line where you know obviously you're going to get 676 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 4: better odds in that regard, not going to be mad 677 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 4: at you. Listen, the Big East got it right. There's 678 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 4: no denying these are the two best teams in the 679 00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 4: Big East. But here's the thing. Strong strong hold court advantage. 680 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 4: I know at least ten people who are heading to 681 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 4: the Garden tonight to root on Saint John's and the 682 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 4: garden is going to be rocking just as much, if 683 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 4: not more than when the Knicks take the court. So 684 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 4: home court advantage with Saint John. They both these teams, 685 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 4: they played each other as we know in the regular season, 686 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 4: they both want on their home court, and you're going 687 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 4: to have a huge home court presence tonight, So give 688 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,560 Speaker 4: me Saint John's. You know, listen to me, this is 689 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 4: a coin flip. If they were playing on a neutral site, 690 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 4: I probably would like stay away and I would not 691 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 4: wager on this game, Steve. But considering that it's at 692 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 4: the Garden, it's Saint John's. I know so many people 693 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 4: who are going. People are really stoked to go to 694 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 4: this game tonight. It's the Garden's going to be on fire. 695 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 4: Give me Saint John's plus two and a half. And again, 696 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 4: if you want to play them on the money line, 697 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 4: not gonna be mad at you. 698 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 3: That's March madness. That's what we live. 699 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 2: I cannot The dynamic of that game is going to 700 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 2: be absolutely fricking mind blowing. Anita, all right, we'll have 701 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 2: some more pigs a little bit later on. But coming 702 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 2: up on the other side, I want to share a 703 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 2: story about what is going wrong for the United States 704 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 2: in this World Baseball Classic. 705 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 3: This is Fox Sports Saturday. 706 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 2: Steve Harvin Andina Marks here Fox Sports Saturday.

Before I share my inside story, I just 737 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:48,720 Speaker 2: want to get your overview, your general interest, the general 738 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 2: impact you feel that the World Baseball Classic has, if any, 739 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: I love. 740 00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 4: The passion, I love the excitement. I feel the team 741 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 4: like Puerto Rico teams like the dr the Dominican Republic, 742 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 4: you know, Venezuela. I just I love the swag and 743 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 4: the excitement and the passion. Bag Bunny giving the Puerto 744 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 4: Rican team their cleats, like the espresso machine and the tugout, 745 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 4: the backflip, you know, the bat flips, the personal jackets, 746 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,359 Speaker 4: you know. I just I love the flair, love, I 747 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 4: love the love for the countries and what they're representing. 748 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 4: It's really made this special. 749 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:39,720 Speaker 3: Steve Well, it's interesting. 750 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 2: I feel like I've been more engaged with the World 751 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 2: Baseball Classics, certainly from a few years ago, when honestly 752 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 2: I didn't even understand what it was all about. 753 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 3: But you know, I'm sort of getting into it. 754 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 2: Actually, I worked with someone yesterday, David Vassa, who has 755 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 2: basically been the number one Dodgers correspondent for you know, 756 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 2: fifteen years, and he dismissed the whole thing is a 757 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 2: clown show. And he said, the biggest example of this 758 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 2: is the fact that Mark de Rosa is the manager 759 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: of the United States team, which he says is a joke. 760 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,280 Speaker 2: The guy has zero managerial skills. He has no business 761 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 2: in that position in something that the United States is 762 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 2: saying is important to them to come out on top 763 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 2: of this World Baseball Classic. But this Clayton Kershaw situation, 764 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 2: I actually had a heads up before it became news yesterday, 765 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 2: and all is being said is that, well, you know, 766 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 2: we're coming down for a couple more games, and we 767 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,840 Speaker 2: feel like we need somebody else in the bullpen that 768 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 2: may help us more than Clayton Kershaw. From what I'm told, 769 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 2: that is not what happened here. What I've been told 770 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 2: is that Clayton Kershaw has been horrified by what is 771 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 2: going on in the management of this team USA. Like, 772 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 2: you know, here's a first ballot Hall of Famer. He's 773 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: just been part of back to back World Series champions 774 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,359 Speaker 2: and he said, it's an absolute freaking mockery the way 775 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:05,720 Speaker 2: Mark Mark de Rosa has been an absolute fricking joke 776 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 2: in the way that he has managed his baseball team. 777 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 2: Promises were made to Clayton Kershaw that we're not delivered on, 778 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 2: and he says, DeRosa is all over the place and 779 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 2: he is doing a horrific job. Losing to Italy is 780 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,920 Speaker 2: almost insane when you look at the lineup that the 781 00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 2: United States put together versus that of Italy, and he 782 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 2: puts the blame right on DeRosa's lap. Now, he won't 783 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,799 Speaker 2: say this publicly, this is hearsay from my standpoint, but 784 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 2: this idea that well, we just needed to make a 785 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,720 Speaker 2: pitching change, and so no, that's not what happened. Kershaw 786 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 2: basically begged out like he did not. I mean, why 787 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 2: would you want out, you know, with two games to 788 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 2: go on the possibility of actually being there if we 789 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 2: win the World Baseball Classic like it matters and for 790 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 2: some it doesn't. And for Kershaw, he said, this is ridiculous. 791 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 2: This is the way. This is being a run. I 792 00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 2: don't want any part of it, and it really comes 793 00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 2: down to Mark de Rosa. 794 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 4: Well, it's interesting because you know again tomorrow night, eight 795 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 4: pm Eastern time. I love the Dominican the fact that 796 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 4: they've you know, five WPC games for fifty one runs. 797 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,799 Speaker 4: They're batting over three hundred fourteen home runs. This team 798 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 4: is unbelievable. But another part of my handicapping is the 799 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 4: fact that Albert Polhost is managing that team, and so 800 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 4: I give him a heads up over Mark de Rosa. 801 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 4: So not surprising there, but really quick, I know we 802 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 4: only have a few seconds. The fact that you had 803 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 4: someone who called this a clown show, I think that's 804 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 4: an interesting conversation to have because I think that's the 805 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 4: problem with Major League Baseball and why major League Baseball 806 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 4: does not have as many viewers and doesn't have a 807 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 4: larger fan base because it's so old school and it 808 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 4: won't accept the way that these these players are enjoying 809 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 4: themselves and having so much freaking fun right now with 810 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 4: the way that they're and the perception is all these 811 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 4: guys are they're clowns. No they're not. This is what 812 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 4: you need, especially to get the millennial in the gen 813 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 4: Z's watch Baseball. 814 00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 2: All right, Well he compared it to wrestling, is what 815 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 2: he did. The World Baseball Classic. Take it from there. 816 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 2: Much more coming up here on Fox Sports Saturday. Wow, 817 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 2: this Michigan Wisconsin game semis of the Big Ten Tournament 818 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 2: and Michigan the Big Three with point Now they're putting 819 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,959 Speaker 2: another tenth of a second on the clock, point four 820 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 2: to go here, Anita, so Wisconsin a golden opportunity when 821 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 2: Ice Cold then hit a three to tie it. Michigan 822 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 2: ran down the clock and hit a big three. 823 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 4: So let me ask you, Yeah, what would be what 824 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 4: would be your sports what's the word I'm looking for? 825 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 4: Magic moment? Would it be hitting a three pointer to 826 00:41:54,640 --> 00:42:00,280 Speaker 4: win the National Championship of March Madness? Would it being 827 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 4: a Grand Slam on the final play of the final 828 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 4: inning no shot at in the World Series. Would it 829 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:13,320 Speaker 4: be completing and throwing a Hail Mary with three seconds 830 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 4: left on the clock in the NFL Super Bowl. Or 831 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 4: would it be wait, I'm not done, I'm not done, Steve. 832 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 4: Or would it be sinking a twenty five foot putt 833 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 4: at the Masters to win by one point? 834 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 2: Yeah? To hit me up with that one, I had 835 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 2: to hit me with that one. What's what's Yeah, I 836 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 2: wasn't even hesitating, Like you know, I always go back 837 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 2: to the Gordon Hayward shot for Butler against Duke. Now 838 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 2: I wasn't at that final four, but my producer was, 839 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 2: and he was directly under the basket and he said, 840 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:51,479 Speaker 2: when Hayward let go of that shot, Butler down by two, 841 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 2: he said, it was right online and they've gone back 842 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 2: a thousand times. 843 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 3: Literally. 844 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 2: If that ball hits the backboard like two inches below 845 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 2: where it did, it banks in at the buzzer to 846 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 2: win the National Championship for Butler, that would mean for me, 847 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 2: for me personally, that would be the biggest thing. Although 848 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 2: I have to say, yeah, twenty five thirty foot or 849 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 2: to win the Masters close, No, I would say shot 850 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 2: at the buzzer down to like, you know, like we 851 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 2: are mentioning what happened with Villanova and North Carolina twenty six. 852 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,240 Speaker 2: That was a tie game, Okay, so if he misses, 853 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 2: they still go there over time. But if that Gordon 854 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 2: Hayward shot, and if Gordon Hayward, if Gordon Hayward, if 855 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 2: that shot had gone in at the buzzer, a half 856 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 2: court three pointer to win by one against Duke, would. 857 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 2: It would go down as the greatest shot in the 858 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 2: history of basketball, no question. 859 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 3: How could you beat that half court shot to win 860 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 3: for Butler. 861 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,840 Speaker 2: Over Duke in the national championship game, That to me 862 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:53,800 Speaker 2: would be the ultimate. 863 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 864 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 4: You know, my favorite quote is from Billy Jean King, 865 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 4: and that is pressure is a privilege. And you know 866 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 4: why pressure is a privilege because there is no feeling, 867 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 4: There is no feeling that any drug that any situation 868 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 4: in life can give you that you feel that your 869 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,879 Speaker 4: body experiences when you accomplish something of that magnitude. Yeah, 870 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 4: and that and and and that is why. And if 871 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 4: you you're I'm an athlete. I've played professional sports, intermural sports, 872 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 4: all of it. I've been in those situations. I've been 873 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 4: extremely successful. I have failed miserably. But when you do succeed, 874 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,359 Speaker 4: have like like I like, I always say, like I 875 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 4: want to be I want to be that person. I 876 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 4: want to be the quarterback throwing that last pass. I 877 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 4: want to be the basketball player taking that last shot. 878 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 4: I I want that put to be on the line 879 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 4: because the the euphoria that you feel by that accomplishment 880 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:57,839 Speaker 4: is nothing that anything else on this planet could, could, 881 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 4: could do, or make you feel and hints pressure is 882 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:04,359 Speaker 4: a privilege to allow you to get there. 883 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 3: I love that. I mean, it is so true. 884 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 2: I think back to Kobe here in La and someone 885 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 2: that you know, I got to know and and and 886 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,719 Speaker 2: just talking to him about those pressure situations because no 887 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 2: one took more of those shots. 888 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 3: And by the way, no one. 889 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 2: Missed more of those shots. That's a fact. Goa be 890 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:27,320 Speaker 2: missed a lot more of those, you know, miraculous shots 891 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 2: than he made. But when he made him it just 892 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 2: seemed also special. 893 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 4: Here's another thing, Steve, You've got to be okay to fail. 894 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh no, no, you know that's. 895 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,319 Speaker 4: Like like you have to be okay. And I think 896 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 4: that there are a number of athletes out there that 897 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 4: are scared to fail, and therefore they're scared to be 898 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 4: that person. They're scared to be that because you know, 899 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 4: they don't want to get criticized and they don't they 900 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 4: you know, but you know, you need you need. 901 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 2: To accept both sides of the isn't this just the 902 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 2: story of life anyway? I mean, it doesn't have to 903 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 2: be sports. I mean, you have to take chances in life, right, 904 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 2: you know, the old you know, the life's not address rehearsal, 905 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,880 Speaker 2: is it. I mean, this life is going to be 906 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 2: your one life. 907 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 4: But when you're but when you're in these situations and 908 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 4: you're on a national platform and the world is watching you, 909 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 4: and you fail, and then you have to you have 910 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 4: to take it on the chin and you have to 911 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 4: take all that criticism as opposed to like you know, 912 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 4: in your personal life, maybe your mom, your folks, your 913 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 4: significant other, your children, your best friends. They they witness 914 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 4: you fail, right, they're gonna lift you up. Hey, you 915 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 4: got it next time. But to but to fail on 916 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 4: that stage in a national championship game or you know, 917 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 4: the Masters or the super Bowl, that's you know, that's 918 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:49,560 Speaker 4: that's you know, that's being confident in yourself to say, 919 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 4: you know what, I may have failed today, but you know, 920 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,319 Speaker 4: gosh darn it, you know I'm I'm gonna win it 921 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 4: one day. 922 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 2: Was there anything better than watching Rory McElroy finally survive 923 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 2: that final nine holes where it looked like he had 924 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 2: it and then he didn't have it, and then he 925 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 2: had it and he didn't have it, and you know 926 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:07,400 Speaker 2: the pressure. 927 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 3: I mean, this is a guy with you know, one 928 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 3: hundred million. 929 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 2: Dollars in personal wealth, he's got everything in the planetell 930 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 2: all of but you can't. They don't give it to 931 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,799 Speaker 2: you get You gotta earn it, you gotta win it. 932 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 2: You gotta get that green jackets, the last thing missing 933 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 2: on his resume, and what he was going through to 934 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,439 Speaker 2: try to get to that finish line, and then when 935 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,880 Speaker 2: he finally makes that last putting, it just you know, 936 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 2: basically crumbled to the ground. Yeah. I love the drama 937 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 2: that look. I mean, this is what makes sports special, right, 938 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, and this is why you a lot. 939 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 2: I'm very critical sometimes when people say, well, parody's good, 940 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 2: I'll get Parodi's not good because I'll tell you what 941 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 2: parody takes away David versus Goliath. 942 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 3: If everybody's the same, then it really doesn't matter, does it. 943 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,919 Speaker 2: I mean, well, my team won this time, Oh great 944 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 2: for you. But for the average sports fan, if you 945 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 2: don't have a horse in the race, what we most 946 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 2: remember are the upsets. I mean the real upsets, like 947 00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 2: the completely unexpected. I can't believe that just happened. In 948 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:17,120 Speaker 2: an upset, and if you have parody you take that away. 949 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 4: Well, here I'm going to disagree with you in I 950 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 4: don't believe I love parody in the regular season. 951 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 2: Why because if everybody, if you out like parody in 952 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:33,360 Speaker 2: the regular season, I don't. 953 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 3: Need parody in the regular season. Doesn't that any part 954 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 3: in the boats season? 955 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 4: But but I do like because because it gets you 956 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:46,879 Speaker 4: to the end, It gets you, you know, because I okay, wait, 957 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 4: I'm wait. This year, this year, the NFL season was 958 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 4: over in Week fifteen. Let's be honest. Week sixteen was 959 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 4: Week seventeen. You didn't even have to watch, dude, you didn't. 960 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:02,319 Speaker 4: You didn't because there was no pair, right, Yeah, Like 961 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 4: I feel this year, this past year in the NFL, 962 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 4: there were more halves and have nuts. There was more 963 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 4: mediocre football. There were so many injuries, especially to the 964 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:14,839 Speaker 4: quarterback position. I mean, I just again, I thought the 965 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,759 Speaker 4: product really sucked. It was so bad, Steve, it was 966 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,760 Speaker 4: so bad and so so because we didn't have parody 967 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,320 Speaker 4: in the regular season. Really the NFL regular season ended. 968 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 2: But a lot of us point the point is, you 969 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 2: say the product is bad. I agree with you, meaning 970 00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 2: we don't have greatness anymore in the league. Where's that 971 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:36,759 Speaker 2: dominant team? Where is that team? You know, people are 972 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 2: getting all hyped up about the Dodgers. Now you know, 973 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 2: we laugh in LA because for years we were always saying, 974 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 2: when are we gonna, you know, get that kind of respect. 975 00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 2: The Dodgers have never been held in that regard. The 976 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 2: Yankees always were in baseball, and now all of a 977 00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 2: sudden they become a target. And if you're a fan 978 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 2: of the Dodgers, now it's one way or the other. 979 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 2: Either you love them or you hate them. You know, 980 00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 2: when you talk about the NFL with the Chiefs and 981 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:03,440 Speaker 2: just recently the Chiefs, you know, and their ability with 982 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:06,319 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes to deliver in big games. Although I never 983 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 2: looked at the Chiefs the same way as they did 984 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 2: like the Patriots, because if you look at the five 985 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 2: Super Bowls the Chiefs have been in with the Mahomes, 986 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 2: they got blown out of two of them, and the 987 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 2: three they won they barely won. So I didn't look 988 00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 2: at him the same I just think, like you don't 989 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 2: think golf was better when Tiger was just annihilating the 990 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 2: field and then if someone came up and upset him, 991 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 2: that that wasn't a much bigger deal. I mean, the 992 00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 2: NBA is a prime example of this. We've had seven 993 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 2: different champions in seven years. It is so watered down. 994 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 2: It's so media I don't know what's an upset, mean, 995 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 2: give me, give me any dynamic where like you walk 996 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 2: away saying, wow, that was unbelievable. 997 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 3: Can you believe they won? 998 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 2: Doesn't exist in the NBA. It is so watered down, 999 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:52,360 Speaker 2: so mediocre. 1000 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 4: So uh, I will, I will agree with you on this. 1001 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:00,400 Speaker 4: When Lebron James was out there forming his super teams, 1002 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 4: whether it was in Miami or Cleveland, yeah, yeah, that 1003 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 4: was a lot of fun to watch, you. 1004 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 2: Know, fun to watch because if you handed them you 1005 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 2: wanted them to. 1006 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 4: Lose, absolutely absolutely. 1007 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1008 00:51:13,640 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 3: So I mean, I mean, okay, there you go. Oh 1009 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 3: all right. 1010 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,880 Speaker 2: On the other side, I got to ask you about 1011 00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 2: the fallout of one of the most shocking stories, seriously 1012 00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 2: in recent NFL history, and that was the mega trade 1013 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,759 Speaker 2: of Max Crosby from the Raiders for two first round 1014 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 2: picks of the Ravens. And then the next thing, you know, 1015 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:40,560 Speaker 2: he fails the physical. What exactly happened here and what's 1016 00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:44,120 Speaker 2: happening next? We'll break it down this it's Fox Sports Saturday. 1017 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:48,799 Speaker 2: Steve Harvin Anina marks here. Fox Sports Saturday. By the way, 1018 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,520 Speaker 2: Puerto Rico scoring and run top of the first inning 1019 00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 2: taken on Italy quarterfinals of the World Baseball Classic. The 1020 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 2: winner of this game will move on to the Semis. 1021 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 2: That game will be on Sunday. All right, I want 1022 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:06,320 Speaker 2: to get back to some NFL free agency news. So 1023 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,840 Speaker 2: one of the absolute biggest stories without a question, leading 1024 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 2: up to the official first day of the NFL season 1025 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:17,799 Speaker 2: this past Wednesday, was the Raiders trading Max Crosby to 1026 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:21,680 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens for two number one picks. Reports were 1027 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 2: the Dallas had offered a first and a second, but 1028 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 2: Ravens came up with two first and Even though there's 1029 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,520 Speaker 2: no way to predict how a trade ultimately will turn 1030 00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 2: out in advance, I understood the trade on both sides. 1031 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,800 Speaker 2: I mean, for the Raiders, having a guy like Max 1032 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 2: Crosby is like a luxury. I mean, you got so 1033 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 2: many holes to fill. You make a deal, you get 1034 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,520 Speaker 2: a couple of number one picks, you can actually take 1035 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,600 Speaker 2: that one pick and trade down multiple picks. You have 1036 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 2: way too many holes, almost like Max Crosby is a 1037 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 2: luxury to have on a really bad team. On the 1038 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 2: other side, of the Ravens desperately needed to get some 1039 00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 2: pass rush to help out their secondary and Max Crosby 1040 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:01,800 Speaker 2: is one of those guys. 1041 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 3: It's a guarantee. 1042 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,440 Speaker 2: Because he his motor runs one hundred percent of the 1043 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 2: time anita always does, which isn't easy when you're on 1044 00:53:08,760 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 2: really bad teams, which he has been on for the 1045 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,239 Speaker 2: majority of his time with the Raiders. So if you're 1046 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 2: on a better team like the Ravens, it would only 1047 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 2: stand to reason that you would even be more motivated 1048 00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 2: to run hot and that's what mac Crosby is all about. 1049 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 2: But all of a sudden, even though it was known 1050 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:30,319 Speaker 2: that he had meniscus surgery done, okay, so yeah, he's 1051 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,279 Speaker 2: going to miss part of training camp. He should be 1052 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:34,560 Speaker 2: ready for the start of the season, and yet the 1053 00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:39,839 Speaker 2: Ravens failed him, nixed the deal on the physical And 1054 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 2: it's like, what just happened here? So I'm gonna ask 1055 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 2: you what just happened and what's the fallout from both 1056 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:52,800 Speaker 2: the Raiders' standpoint and the Ravens standpoint about this failed 1057 00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:57,279 Speaker 2: deal of Max Crosby for two number one picks. Yeah, so. 1058 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 4: I spent four years in Baltimore know the Baltimore Ravens, 1059 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:07,000 Speaker 4: Steve Bushatti extremely well. Ozzie Knwsom was the general manager, 1060 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:10,240 Speaker 4: wh I was there, knew ericd Acosta, who was in line, 1061 00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,960 Speaker 4: has now taken over. So let me just preface by 1062 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:16,440 Speaker 4: saying I've got immense respect for the organization. And uh 1063 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,080 Speaker 4: and and Eric DeCosta learned from the best, and and 1064 00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 4: that was Ozzie. So uh so there's that. I think 1065 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:28,920 Speaker 4: what happened here was Max. Max Crosby was highly coveted. 1066 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:33,399 Speaker 4: He came in. He apparently, from what I understand, he 1067 00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 4: has h he needs meniscus surgery. And by the way, 1068 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:39,319 Speaker 4: I've had seven knee surgeries, four a c L, three 1069 00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 4: three a CL for meniscus. So when you have a 1070 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 4: meniscus tear, you could repair it several ways. One is 1071 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:51,239 Speaker 4: you you shave it where you shave the meniscus to 1072 00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 4: the point where the tear doesn't exist anymore, or you 1073 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 4: suture it up. I'm not sure which one it is. Also, 1074 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 4: keep in mind he turns twenty nine in August, so 1075 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 4: there is some wear and tear on those treads and 1076 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 4: put giving up two first round drop picks. That's a 1077 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 4: lot like that, you know, and not to say that 1078 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 4: Max isn't worthy of that, especially for a team like 1079 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 4: the Ravens. That is like, let's be honest, they are 1080 00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 4: win now, especially in this division where there are a 1081 00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:26,320 Speaker 4: lot of question marks. The Browns quarterback situation is a mess. 1082 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 4: The Steelers don't even know who their quarterback is going 1083 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 4: to be. Joe Burrow in the Cincinati Bengals, they're a 1084 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 4: mess as well. Like this is the year for the 1085 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 4: Ravens to really take a hold of the AFC North. 1086 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 4: I have no doubt that they're going to win the division. 1087 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,400 Speaker 4: They'll make it into the postseason. Who knows, maybe they 1088 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 4: go in as the number or number two seed. They're 1089 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 4: going to host a number of playoffs and potentially represent 1090 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 4: the AFC in the Super Bowl. Have no doubt about that. 1091 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 4: One thing that they were in dire straights for and 1092 00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 4: they really needed was help defensively. They have immense talent 1093 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,720 Speaker 4: on their defense, but they weren't able to turn the corner. 1094 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,319 Speaker 4: So therefore I understand why they were willing to give 1095 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 4: up the two first round draft picks. They bring in 1096 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 4: Max Crosby. They realize he's got a knee issue, he's 1097 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 4: twenty nine, and then all of a sudden, oh, Trey 1098 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 4: Hendrickson is looking a little bit more desirable. No injuries 1099 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:27,720 Speaker 4: can come in they could utilize him on the defense. Wow, 1100 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 4: that could be a better deal for us. We don't 1101 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 4: have to give up the two number ones. We're getting 1102 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 4: a guy who's a little bit younger and isn't compromised. So, 1103 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:42,279 Speaker 4: you know, like I like I, they pivoted and it 1104 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:46,040 Speaker 4: sucks for Max. It really more than anything, Steve, it 1105 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:49,839 Speaker 4: sucks for the Raiders because now you know, if they 1106 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:53,439 Speaker 4: do decide to trade Max to a different team, they're 1107 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 4: certainly not going to get two number ones because now 1108 00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 4: the world knows he needs knee surgery. But you know, 1109 00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,200 Speaker 4: the Ravens. The Ravens had to do with what they 1110 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 4: what they had to do. Here's here's here's what the 1111 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 4: issue is going to be moving forward. Are teams now 1112 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 4: going to be reluctant to make a deal with ericd 1113 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 4: Acosta in the Ravens knowing how they handled this situation 1114 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 4: And part of having a phenomenal general manager on a 1115 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 4: team is a general manager who people like, who people 1116 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 4: want to pick up the phone and call and have 1117 00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 4: a conversation about wheeling and dealing and making deals for players. Now, 1118 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:37,080 Speaker 4: are people going to be reluctant to call the Ravens 1119 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,320 Speaker 4: or trust the Ravens and trust Eric Acosta because of 1120 00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:41,840 Speaker 4: the way that they handled the situation. 1121 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 2: I say, yes, I agree with you. I think it's 1122 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 2: a freaking disaster for the Ravens. You talk about a 1123 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,880 Speaker 2: pr nightmare for the Ravens. I mean, it's such a 1124 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 2: bad look. Like you said now, I mean again, when 1125 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 2: we go back to the whole idea of well should 1126 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:01,439 Speaker 2: we go with Trey Hendrickson versus Crosby and everything else, 1127 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:05,600 Speaker 2: I would imagine you've done a little homework in advance, okay, 1128 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 2: before you actually put it out there that we're willing 1129 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,880 Speaker 2: to part with two number one picks to get Max Crosby. 1130 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:15,120 Speaker 2: I mean you've ruined things for the Raiders because now 1131 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,680 Speaker 2: all of a sudden it's out there that, oh, there's 1132 00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 2: damage goods. I mean, if you're looking for something bad, 1133 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,600 Speaker 2: you're gonna find it right Whereas now you're like, well, 1134 00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 2: he seems to be okay, but the Ravens said he wasn't, 1135 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 2: so maybe we're missing some I mean, like you have 1136 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:36,240 Speaker 2: absolutely tarnished the one commodity that the Raiders had that 1137 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:40,240 Speaker 2: could help them start the process of putting together a 1138 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 2: potential roster to get into the postseason. 1139 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 3: Down the road. 1140 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 2: I just think the Ravens mishandled it miserably. Look I'm 1141 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 2: with you, Ozzie K. Newsom's record was unmatched. When you 1142 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:52,680 Speaker 2: think about some of the deals, I always go back 1143 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 2: to the when they left Cleveland to go to Baltimore, 1144 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 2: their very first draft nineteen ninety six, they had two 1145 00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 2: number ones. They cut John John Hadden. I mean, Hall 1146 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 2: of famers. So Ozzie knew how to run an organization. 1147 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 2: Just because you're a disciple of someone doesn't make you qualified. 1148 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,720 Speaker 2: That's what I say. Oh, he learned from the best. 1149 00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 2: Well you might have learned from the best, but you're not. 1150 00:59:13,480 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 2: And so, I mean, this was so mismanned, such a debate. 1151 00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 2: I mean, so, yeah, you have respect for the Ravens 1152 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:24,240 Speaker 2: organization when Ozzie Knewson was running the show. Just because 1153 00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 2: you are a protege doesn't put you in the same class. 1154 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:31,320 Speaker 2: And this was completely botched. And yes, I would be 1155 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 2: very hesitant to take a phone call from the Ravens 1156 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:35,000 Speaker 2: moving forward. 1157 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 4: And here's another thing, and correct me if I'm wrong. 1158 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 4: But but Max was like the raven Not only were 1159 00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 4: the Ravens giving up two number ones, but they were 1160 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,640 Speaker 4: gonna have to negotiate a new deal for him. Sure, yeah, 1161 00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:48,240 Speaker 4: so so you know. 1162 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 3: So you didn't know this. 1163 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 4: And again I'm not give me. I'm not defending the Ravens. 1164 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 4: I'm not defending the Ravens. But you know, I think 1165 00:59:57,880 --> 01:00:01,640 Speaker 4: I think, you know, all things, consider all the things, 1166 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 4: as we like to say, you know, I think based 1167 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 4: on the reports, I believe the reports. I think the 1168 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,640 Speaker 4: Ravens panicked. I think they were like, WHOA, this is 1169 01:00:10,680 --> 01:00:12,320 Speaker 4: too much to give up. B We're gonna have to 1170 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:14,800 Speaker 4: negotiate a new deal with him. We're probably gonna get stuck. 1171 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:17,080 Speaker 4: We're gonna have to probably eat a lot of it 1172 01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 4: if that knee surgery or the knee deteriorates again. He's 1173 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 4: twenty nine years old. Oh wait a minute, Trey Hendrickson, Ooh, 1174 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,720 Speaker 4: that can be an even better fit for our defense. 1175 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 4: Let's pivot. But yes, you know, they totally screwed the Raiders. 1176 01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 4: And I think really the bigger story here is now 1177 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:37,560 Speaker 4: teams are going to be a little bit more apprehensive 1178 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 4: to pick up the phone and try to wheel and 1179 01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 4: deal and make calls and make potential deals with Eric 1180 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 4: DeCosta and the Ravens. Now moving forward, all right, Like 1181 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:49,360 Speaker 4: who can trust them? 1182 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 2: No, exactly, and that's that's a problem for the Ravens 1183 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 2: moving forward. All right, So we talked about some of 1184 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 2: the teams still in search of quarterback answers. The Browns 1185 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 2: obviously the top is by the way I get the 1186 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:06,520 Speaker 2: Jets credit. I'm one of those still believers in Geno Smith. Oh, 1187 01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 2: Geno Smith took the fall for the Raiders unfairly because 1188 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 2: the Chip Kelly higher was the disaster there. 1189 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:15,520 Speaker 3: Whoever decided to bring in Chippy? 1190 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 2: As you know, it came out that chip Kelly was 1191 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 2: literally sending plays down on the field that Geno Smith 1192 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:24,640 Speaker 2: didn't even know existed. So there was such a miscommunication 1193 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 2: going on between the offensive coordinator and the quarterback. I 1194 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,400 Speaker 2: still believe Geno Smith is serviceable. Now. I don't know 1195 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,520 Speaker 2: if any quarterback and have success in a Jets uniform. 1196 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 2: That remains to be seen. But I think the Jets 1197 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 2: could be in a worse situation than bringing in Geno Smith. 1198 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 2: So at least temporarily they got some answer perhaps there. 1199 01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:46,160 Speaker 2: But I mean the Cleveland Brown situation, I don't know 1200 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 2: what you're still doing. I mean, technically, there's still toubting 1201 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,080 Speaker 2: that Deshaun Watson is in the mix. 1202 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 3: I'm like, what it is? 1203 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:54,560 Speaker 2: He is? He? I know you're still paying him, but 1204 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 2: that doesn't mean that he's still in the mix. I 1205 01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 2: mean Shdor Sanders his numbers were historically bad. I mean 1206 01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 2: they weren't just bad, like they were historically bad as 1207 01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 2: far as his QBR is concerned. So the idea that 1208 01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:10,840 Speaker 2: somehow Shador Sanders is going to become a franchise quarterback 1209 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:16,160 Speaker 2: seems just a pipe dream. But let's talk about Kirk Cousins, 1210 01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 2: because one thing we know about Kirk Cousins. 1211 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:20,440 Speaker 3: The whole dynam was so weird. 1212 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:23,320 Speaker 2: First of all, you talk about the Vikings losing Sam Darnold, 1213 01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:26,240 Speaker 2: how do they lose Kirk Cousins. I mean, no one 1214 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 2: saw Atlanta coming out of literally nowhere and offering the 1215 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:33,360 Speaker 2: deal that he did. Understandably he took it. And then 1216 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 2: they draft Michael Pennix and it was like, what's happening 1217 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 2: here in Atlanta? And then after Penis got hurt, Kirk Cousins, 1218 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 2: who had been shaky prior to that, looked better, seemingly 1219 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:48,320 Speaker 2: a little more confident coming out that Achilles injury. So 1220 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 2: looking into the crystal ball here, Anina Marx. Who would 1221 01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 2: you say, right now, which team would be the best 1222 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 2: fit for Kirk Cousins. 1223 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, well, hey, so, so the first question 1224 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:03,560 Speaker 4: you have to ask is do you feel Kirk Cousins 1225 01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 4: is a starting quarterback in the NFL. That's number one. 1226 01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 3: I still think he is. 1227 01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:08,520 Speaker 4: And yeah, I do too. 1228 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not talking about an elite, but I yeah, 1229 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 2: I'd say. 1230 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 4: I'd say I'd say, I'd say somewhere between you know, 1231 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,439 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two and twenty eight. You know I would 1232 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 4: put him. You know, I would put him down there, 1233 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:23,800 Speaker 4: you know I would. 1234 01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:24,640 Speaker 1: Uh. 1235 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:28,120 Speaker 4: So that's so that's number one. Number two is if 1236 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 4: you do bring in Kirk Cousins and you're going to 1237 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:34,440 Speaker 4: have him be your starting quarterback, you need an exceptional 1238 01:03:34,480 --> 01:03:38,959 Speaker 4: offensive line, like exceptional. Also, you need a running game 1239 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 4: because he does not thrive unless you are aggressive with 1240 01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 4: play action. So so there are certain things that you 1241 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 4: absolutely need. A top you know, let's go, I was 1242 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:55,520 Speaker 4: going to say top ten, possibly top eight offensive line, 1243 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 4: and you need you need a very successful running a 1244 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 4: tick so that Kirk Cousins then could utilize his play 1245 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 4: action skills because that's where he thrives. So there's very 1246 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 4: limited teams out there I think that fit that bill. 1247 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:13,600 Speaker 4: And also there's very limited teams Steve that at this 1248 01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 4: point in time need a quarterback I would like. I 1249 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:21,240 Speaker 4: don't think Daniel Jones is going to be ready for 1250 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,000 Speaker 4: Week one, and I actually think that he would be 1251 01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:27,560 Speaker 4: a good fit for the Colts offense. You know, I 1252 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:31,800 Speaker 4: like the head coach, I like his offensive mentality. They've 1253 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 4: got a very good offensive line. They were able to 1254 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:37,640 Speaker 4: protect Daniel Jones this season and have him come in 1255 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 4: and start the season and then see where that goes. 1256 01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:43,520 Speaker 4: You know, maybe he starts the season with the Colts, 1257 01:04:43,880 --> 01:04:46,720 Speaker 4: see what happens throughout the year. As we know, you know, 1258 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 4: each and every year, we have at least anywhere between 1259 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 4: eight to ten, possibly twelve starting quarterbacks that go down, 1260 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 4: and there might be a team out there that'll be 1261 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:56,240 Speaker 4: looking at that point in time to trade or bring 1262 01:04:56,280 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 4: in a quarterback to come in and fit the bill. 1263 01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 4: So just just looking at like, I don't think he 1264 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:06,120 Speaker 4: would be successful in Cleveland. I don't think that would 1265 01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:10,400 Speaker 4: be a good landing spot for him. So again, and 1266 01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:12,520 Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe go to the Raiders and be 1267 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 4: a mentor for Mendoza. I think Mendoza would start. But 1268 01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 4: you know, I'm sure Kirk Cousins is tired of riding 1269 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 4: the pine and holding the clipboard like he did in Atlanta, 1270 01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 4: So I don't know. For me, I would say the 1271 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 4: Colts go start the season, wait until Daniel Jones is 1272 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:31,760 Speaker 4: one hundred percent ready to go, and then hopefully, you know, 1273 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:35,200 Speaker 4: you've got a small sample size, but something that's really 1274 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:38,520 Speaker 4: good and attractive for other teams out there for Kirk Cousins, 1275 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:39,520 Speaker 4: and you trade him. 1276 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 2: I laugh when I saw Daniel Jones get that deal 1277 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:44,520 Speaker 2: last time. He got a forty million plus deal. He 1278 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 2: got it from the Giants. How did that work? 1279 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,920 Speaker 4: Watch out now I started the Daniel Jones fan club. 1280 01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 3: You're you're okay? 1281 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 2: Well to me, it's still a small sample size with 1282 01:05:56,400 --> 01:06:00,040 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones. And you know, obviously once he left, the 1283 01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,600 Speaker 2: Holts completely fell off the rails. I know Shane Steikh 1284 01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 2: from his days is an assistant with the Chargers, and 1285 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,280 Speaker 2: that was interesting because two of the young assistants they 1286 01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:10,560 Speaker 2: had at the time where him and Nick Sirianni, who 1287 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 2: were very different personalities to say the least. But you know, 1288 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm still not all in on Daniel Jones. 1289 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 2: But I can understand the Colts hoping that what they 1290 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,960 Speaker 2: saw was not a mirage that they can actually, you know, 1291 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:27,720 Speaker 2: suddenly get Daniel Jones to that next level, much as 1292 01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:29,880 Speaker 2: Brian Dabele thought he was going to do that with 1293 01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones in New York, which never material won. 1294 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:38,680 Speaker 4: No, Brian Dable never wanted Daniel Jones. So so here 1295 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:42,040 Speaker 4: really quick, I'll make a case for Daniel Jones. Daniel 1296 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:45,800 Speaker 4: Jones was drafted by the Giants too soon by Dave Gettlman, 1297 01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:48,280 Speaker 4: So that was the first thing. He comes in. He 1298 01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:51,280 Speaker 4: was drafted too soon. So the expectation for like, he 1299 01:06:51,320 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 4: should have been drafted late in the first rounds definitely 1300 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:57,360 Speaker 4: below fifteen, if not in the second round, and then 1301 01:06:57,400 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 4: expectations would not have been this hard for him. He 1302 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 4: comes to New York. New York is a very hard 1303 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:05,520 Speaker 4: place to play. He was drafted too high, so there 1304 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 4: was high expectations. And he comes in and he plays 1305 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 4: for a team that has a horrible offensive line and 1306 01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 4: no weapons, no weapons for him at all. Right, like 1307 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:17,439 Speaker 4: his last year, he had neighbors. But at that point 1308 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:20,640 Speaker 4: in time, Sae Kwon Barkley was in Philadelphia. On top 1309 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:25,520 Speaker 4: of that, from daniels first last year with Duke and 1310 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 4: all the way through his tenure with the Giants, he 1311 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:32,120 Speaker 4: went through seven offensive coordinators and seven different offenses. And 1312 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:34,640 Speaker 4: for folks who've never played football before, when you learn 1313 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:37,000 Speaker 4: a new system, it's like learning a new language. So 1314 01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:41,600 Speaker 4: imagine trying to learn a new language in understanding that 1315 01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:45,400 Speaker 4: language each and every year, and then trying to allow 1316 01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:50,800 Speaker 4: your athletic you know, gifts to succeed while you're trying 1317 01:07:50,800 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 4: to learn a new language. On top of that, he 1318 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:56,720 Speaker 4: played for a number of head coaches and offensive coordinators 1319 01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,040 Speaker 4: who were not in his quarter, who were not in 1320 01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:01,040 Speaker 4: his corner and didn't him to be there, and Brian 1321 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:04,400 Speaker 4: Dable was one of them. So dude was sold a 1322 01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 4: bag of lemons. The Giants did him wrong so many ways, 1323 01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:10,920 Speaker 4: and the best thing that happened to him was to 1324 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,760 Speaker 4: get the hell out of Dodge leave here. Giants fans 1325 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 4: hated him. I was so thrilled for the season that 1326 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:20,960 Speaker 4: he had in Indianapolis with the Colts because he went 1327 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 4: to a team that, by the way, drafted Anthony Richardson. 1328 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 4: Didn't like Anthony Richardson coming out of University of Florida 1329 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,080 Speaker 4: knew he was going to be a bust. And that 1330 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,680 Speaker 4: is another organization Steve that said, you know what, we 1331 01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 4: made a mistake. Anthony Richardson is not a starting quarterback 1332 01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 4: in the NFL. And Steiken hitched his wagon to Daniel Jones, 1333 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:43,360 Speaker 4: and they started the season like nobody's business. In fact, 1334 01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:45,599 Speaker 4: to the point where Daniel Jones was being talked about 1335 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:50,280 Speaker 4: comeback Player of the Year, possibly MVP Colts winning the division. 1336 01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:52,280 Speaker 4: At one point in time, they were like a third 1337 01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:55,120 Speaker 4: favored to win the Super Bowl. And then they dealed, 1338 01:08:55,240 --> 01:08:57,559 Speaker 4: they dealt with all these injuries and YadA, YadA, YadA, 1339 01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:59,559 Speaker 4: and then Daniel got injured and then we know how 1340 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 4: the season and yes. 1341 01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 2: With Philip Rivers out on the field, all right, I'm 1342 01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:04,840 Speaker 2: going to say this.
