And The New York Times wrote 24 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: a story about the doge coin millionaire, another version of gambling, 25 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 1: and it is too juicy of a topic to pass up. 26 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we have to talk about that. I don't 27 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: know if we're doing it this hour, maybe next hour. 28 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: We're doing a full segment on it, because we just 29 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: need to talk about it.

And you know, was it fair that I 76 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: kind of jumped the line and didn't have to necessarily 77 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: apply to my friend's office job so I could get 78 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: this cushy office job. And I'll never forget. I would 79 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: leave for work at a certain time every day, you 80 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: guys know, I'm very regimented, schedule oriented, and I would 81 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 1: go to McDonald's and I would pick up a breakfast 82 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: sandwich and after the first month, I started calculating how 83 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: much that egg McMuffin would start to eat into my 84 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: hourly wage. I was like, wait a minute, I'm wasting 85 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: my money on an egg with buffett. If I go 86 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: out to lunch too, I'm gonna start eating breakfast at home. 87 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: I would start to bring in sandwiches, you know, on 88 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 1: the path to greatness and frugality. That's what I was 89 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: trying to do. And I tell you this story because 90 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: it's not fair that a lot of other more qualified 91 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: people couldn't get the job, but I got it because 92 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: I was friends with the family, and you know, they 93 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: trusted me, and I was gonna work hard, but because 94 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: I knew them. And I said this earlier this week 95 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: on Straight Fire. It's not always what you know, but 96 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: it's often who you know. And I've mentioned this because 97 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: not because I'm gonna host Undisputed on Monday, very excited 98 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: about that, make sure you tune in, but because of 99 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow, who may or may not be going to 100 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars as a third string tight end. And 101 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: I'll tell you, guys, we could do three hours on 102 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: this topic. I am very passionate about it. I have 103 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: zero problem with Tim Tebow air quotes here jumping the 104 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: line to maybe get a third string tight job for 105 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: his friend and neighbor. Yes, they are neighbors in Jacksonville, 106 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: urban Meyer, who has known Tim Tebow for fifteen years. 107 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: That is a true story. Fifteen years. Okay, all these 108 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: people outrage, Oh it's privilege. Why can't Colin Kaepernick get 109 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: a job? I will blow all these nonsense theories out 110 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: of the water. And there really is not a debate 111 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: to be had. And you know me, I love hearing 112 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: both sides of the debate. You weigh it. Okay, well, 113 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: this side has merits like there's no argument here, Guys, 114 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: there isn't. Tim Tebow has intimate knowledge and friendship with 115 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: urban Meyer dating back fifteen years. I had to look 116 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: this up because it's such a cool story. Okay, so 117 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: urban Meyer before he gets the Florida the floora Gators 118 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: kind of stunk. If you guys remember Steve spurriy or 119 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: in the nineties was incredible. They wanted Natty with Danny Wherfel. 120 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 1: I think in ninety six, you know, they're top ten 121 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: finish every year. They basically Florida became a program that 122 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: was awesome in the nineties under Spurrier and then he leaves. 123 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: I think it was for the Washington Redskins at the time, 124 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: and they replaced Burrier with Ron zook And I don't 125 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: know if you guys remember that, but it was an 126 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: epic fail three years Zooka's toast. So they bring in 127 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: urban Meyer. Urban Meyer had been a winner. And urban 128 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: Meyer gets off the plane. Okay, you know, private jet 129 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: down to Florida. The baggage handlers, coach, were so happy 130 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: to see you. Hey, you've got to start recruiting this kid. 131 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: His name is Tim Tebow. Urban Meyer. Okay, I'll handle 132 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: I'll handle the recruiting. Thanks a lot, guys. Urban Meyer goes, 133 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: you know, celebratory meal. The waitresses. Hey, coach, I can't 134 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: wait for you to bring Tim Tebo. Oh, I'm so 135 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: excited Urban Meer who urban Meyer was not from this 136 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: part of the country. He was in Utah. He didn't 137 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: know Tim Tebow. So finally he goes to see in 138 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: two thousand five what all this Tim Tebow hype was. 139 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: So he goes to a Tim Tebow baseball game, and 140 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: of course Tim Tebow is the captain, He's the leader 141 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: on the field. He's the leader in the dugout fire 142 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: and everybody up coming through in the clutch. All those 143 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: cheesy leadership traits that franchises like the sorry Detroit Lions 144 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: and the uh pathetic Cleveland Browns. These are the franchises. Hell, 145 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: you could toss my New York Jets in there. A 146 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: lot of these NFL franchise they don't have leadership. Tim 147 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: Tebow was displaying it in high school. Urban Meyers say, 148 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: I gotta get in. But there was a problem. There 149 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: was this other program named Alabama who had a big 150 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: head start in the act and for the services of Tebow. 151 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: But you know the story. Urban Meyer wins the Tebow race, 152 00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: Tebow goes to Gainesville, they win two titles. The rest history. 153 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: So now urban Meyer gets his first NFL job in Jacksonville, 154 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: an outpost in the NFL that nobody really cares about. Okay, 155 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: Jacksonville had a couple of decent runs with Mark Brunel 156 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: years ago, and then of course they went to the 157 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: a f C title game against the Patriots maybe four 158 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: years ago, and Blake Bortles was the quarterback. I did 159 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: not say Blake Bortles led them to the a f 160 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: C title game, and the defense was the story there, 161 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: and of course they have to blow it up because 162 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: the team stinks. The following year they dumped Bordles and 163 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: they've been adrift in the ocean, just rudderless for years. 164 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: Incomes Urban Meyer, trying to change the culture, and he's 165 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: obviously gonna go for what he knows in the draft, 166 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: four and five star recruits. It's a fun I read 167 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: this somewhere. If you look at everybody Urban Meyers drafted, 168 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: they were either a four or a five star re 169 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: route or they had a connection to Florida. And then 170 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: there was one kid that was from you TEP and 171 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: they were like, oh well, no, no, he went and 172 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: got this guy from U TEP. Time out. The kids 173 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: started at Florida and then transferred to you TEP. Like 174 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: urban Meyer knows what he wants in the draft, and 175 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: he knows what he wants in Tim Tebow. A proven entity. 176 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 1: That's what Tebow is to urban Meyer. Now I'm not 177 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: saying Tebow is gonna come in and be an awesome player. 178 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna say he's gonna catch a pass. 179 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna make the team. But 180 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: if you Urban Meyer are trying to make a big 181 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 1: change in the culture, bringing somebody you trust. Remember, Urban 182 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: Meyer's never coached in the NFL. He's going in there. 183 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: There's the narrative out there. Ah, these college coaches they 184 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: come in, they fail. Spurrier did it, it didn't work out. 185 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: Nick Saban did it. It didn't work out. It's not 186 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: like Tim Tebow's going there to be the backup quarterback 187 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: to Trevor Lawrence. Everything lines up perfectly. You have the 188 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 1: native son from Jackson eld Tebow, who was a high 189 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: school legend. He goes to Gainesville, tears it up, two 190 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: titles with the Gators, goes to the NFL. Yeah, probably 191 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 1: overdrafted by Denver. Not really a quarterback, but he did 192 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: win a playoff game. Yeah, he made the game when 193 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: he touchdown passed. I know it was like a seven 194 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: yard slant and the receiver took it to the house. 195 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,199 Speaker 1: I think it was Damarius Thomas, but somebody could check 196 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: me on that. The reality is, yeah, Tebow has not 197 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: been on a football field since two thousand twelve. He's 198 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: tried to make a couple of teams. The Patriots wanted 199 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: to give me a chance. I think the Eagles gave 200 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: him a cup of coffee. But bottom line, Tim Tebow, 201 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: nobody saw us for him. I'm guessing that Urban Meyers, 202 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: someone who's Don Tebow for fifteen years, who's walking into 203 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: a locker room with a bad culture, nobody wants to 204 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 1: be there. Leonard Fournette, Jalen ramsay, they could not get 205 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: out of town fast enough. Everybody wants out of Jacksonville. 206 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: Urban Meyer he wanted in. I mean, he knew he 207 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: was getting Trevor Lawrence, which made it a lot easier. 208 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: But just think about this. The next time you are 209 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: up for a job and you have an in that 210 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: can forward your resume to the top of the pile 211 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: and you can get a call simply because of who 212 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: you know, not what you know. You're gonna like that, 213 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: and that is kind of how the world works. Is 214 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: it fair? Not always? Well? Jason, you have an addressed 215 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. Okay, who was Colin Kaepernick's college football coach? 216 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: Is he in the NFL? Is he an offensive coordinator? 217 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: Is he a head coach? No? Does Colin Kaepernick have 218 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: an ally? I don't know. He did sue the league, 219 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: so he's clearly not got a lot of allies there. 220 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: Can he still play? Maybe? Is he gonna be willing 221 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: to change positions like Tibo and be like a third 222 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: string tight end. I don't know. You have to ask 223 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: Kaepernick that did he get shafted. That's an entirely another story. 224 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: The answer is probably yes. There is some evidence that 225 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 1: says yes. But again, we're not going to dive too 226 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: deep into Kaepernick. This is more about Tebow and why 227 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: I have absolutely no problem with urban Meyer bringing him in. 228 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's gonna make the team. I 229 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: don't know if he's gonna catch a pass. Is he 230 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: taking a roster spot? Guys? I've told this story plenty 231 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: of times. The l A Lakers had a guy at 232 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: the end of their bench last year who waved a 233 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: towel and was a great culture guy. He would be 234 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: the first guy off the bench clapping it up. All right, guys, 235 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: come on, turn around, let's go high five, and people 236 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: tapping him up, coaching the young guys, making all the practices, 237 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: not not asking for minutes, not being troublesome. You don't 238 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: have to worry about him when he leaves the facilities, 239 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: going to his family, and that guy's Jared Dudley. I've 240 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: gotten to know him a little bit. He came on 241 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: this radio show. I would see him before Laker games. 242 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: Jared Dudley, I'd have a future in media, maybe in coaching. 243 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. He was a culture guy with the Lakers. 244 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes you need that. There was a culture guy in 245 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: the Miami Heat organization for about the last fifteen years. 246 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: He did not play a minute all season. This year, 247 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: he's forty years old. His name is Udonis Haslem. The 248 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: Miami Heat. We're playing the Sixers this week. I don't 249 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: know if you guys saw this. Udonis Haslem has not 250 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: played a minute at all season. He goes in, he 251 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: goes right at Dwight Howard, gets four points and three 252 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: minutes into his season debut, he gets in a fight 253 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: with Dwight Howard served notice to the Sixers, Oh, y'all 254 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: think you're tough, We're gonna see you in the second round. 255 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: And it's looking increasingly like the Heat are are gonna 256 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: be the four or five seed and they would play 257 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: the Sixers in the second round. The Heat's culture guy 258 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: sat on the bench all season. Eric Spoelstra, waited for 259 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: the right moment to unleash him, and he sent a 260 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: message to the Sixers, Hey, y'all are staffed Ben Simmons, 261 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: Joel and b Dwight. Howage're soft. That's what the Heat 262 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: we're saying. I'm not saying Ben Simmons is soft, but 263 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: that's the message the Heat wanted to send. We're tough, 264 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna We're gonna see you guys soon. Culture guys work. 265 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: NBA rosters are way smaller than NFL rosters. I have 266 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: zero problems with Tim Tebow getting a chance. As a 267 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I actually endorse it. I think there's 268 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: a great move. He doesn't make the team. He doesn't 269 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 1: make the team, but he's a great move for Urban 270 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: Meyer and his first job as an NFL head coach 271 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: coming up next year.

Are the Clippers ducking the Lakers? 282 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 1: I mean there's a good chance they are. It's not, 283 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: but I mean that performance last night. I don't know 284 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: why you're pulling your guys to rest them. We'll get 285 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: into it in a little bit. Um, it's funny, you 286 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: know though, not what you know, but who you know? 287 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 1: Things irks so many people. They get so angry hearing that. 288 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: And just remember, guys, life is really what you make 289 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: of it. You can sit there and be angry about 290 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: things and not care and um, just not make an effort. 291 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: Do you know how many people in the last I 292 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: don't know, basically, since I got to l A, you know, 293 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: when I start doing radio, TV podcasts, all this stuff, 294 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: how many people who want to get ahead have hit 295 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: me on the d M s and said, hey, man, 296 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: I would love to get into your field. Let's just 297 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 1: say it's three okay of those three hundred, my almost 298 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: My first question is, well, what makes you special? What 299 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 1: do you do? What do you separate? How do you 300 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: separate yourself from the pack, and uh, maybe half of 301 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 1: the people at that point just stop and they're like, oh, well, 302 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: I'm not that special. There's a certain number of people 303 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: who keep pushing and prodding, and eventually when a job 304 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 1: opening comes up, whether it's Fox Sports Radio, whether it's 305 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Digital, whether FS one is hiring in whatever capacity, 306 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 1: there have been people who have connected with me on 307 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: LinkedIn and I've gotten their resume in simply because they 308 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: made the effort. They're showing up and trying their other 309 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: butt off. If you're trying hard and making an effort 310 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: to get ahead and know people who are in a 311 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: position that can help you, you're doing the right thing. 312 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: If you want to just you know, show up at 313 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: wherever you work every day and not really care and 314 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: mail it in and get paid, that's fine. You could 315 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 1: do that too, But there are the go getters out 316 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: there and who you know can help you so much 317 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: if you really make the effort. All right, now, let's 318 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:19,439 Speaker 1: get to the NFL schedule release. And you know, you 319 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: never want to freak out in May about an NFL schedule. 320 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: You don't, it's just it's too early. That being said, 321 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: you can glean a lot of obvious takeaways from what 322 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: you saw at the schedule release. For instance, New England Patriots. 323 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw this. Their first 324 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: seven games, five of them are at home, okay, and 325 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: oh yeah, the quarterbacks they're facing in the first I 326 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: don't know seven games other than Tom Brady. I'm gonna 327 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: list off for you the Patriots quarterbacks that they faced. 328 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,719 Speaker 1: That Bill Belichick with all the guys back from COVID, 329 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: with all the money he's spent free agents. See, these 330 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 1: are the quarterbacks the Patriots face. Toua Tongua, Zach Wilson, 331 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: the rookie Jamis Winston or Tayson Hill, whoever starting for 332 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: New Orleans, Tom Brady, of course, Tyrod Taylor the likely 333 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: starter in Houston. I don't know how much we'll do 334 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: one to Shawn Watson. Bottom mind, there is no update 335 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: except he doesn't want to play for them. I think 336 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 1: Daniel Jeremiah said at the draft on the draft night 337 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 1: that widely around the league everybody thinks Watson's played his 338 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: last snap with the Texas. Then in week six Dak Prescott, 339 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: and then in Week seven Zack Wilson. Again, there is 340 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: a real chance that the Patriots open the season five 341 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: and two or six and one. I am, I'm just 342 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 1: going off the schedule. The opposing quarterbacks. That matters more 343 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: than anything. When you hear people say, well, their opponent's 344 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,440 Speaker 1: winning percentage last year was just stop this, mute them, 345 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: ignore them, and be like whoa hold up time out? 346 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: I don't care about that. I want to know A 347 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: who quarterback is and B what is the Vegas UH 348 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,239 Speaker 1: season win total over under? That matters a ton. I 349 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 1: trust Vegas more than I do a winning percentage from 350 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: last year. In a weirdo COVID year, so many players 351 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: change teams in the off season, a lot can happen. Um. 352 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: For instance, Cleveland Browns are a bye bye bye team. 353 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean just they are gonna be very good this year. 354 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: And you look at the schedule, you're like, late in 355 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: the season they play Ravens Bye week Ravens again, You're like, oh, 356 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: that's brutal. Take a time out, dive a little deeper. 357 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: When the Browns have that bye week in between the 358 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 1: Ravens games, who do the Ravens play? Oh, the Pittsburgh Steelers, 359 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: their biggest rival. AUH. Just for fun, go see how 360 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 1: the Ravens do against the spread the week after facing Pittsburgh. 361 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: You don't have to go far back five ten years. 362 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 1: Interesting number. You look at the Green Bay Packers, six 363 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 1: of their first nine are on the road. We don't 364 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: know if Aaron Rodgers is gonna be there, So that's 365 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: that's tough. I think the Chargers have the most difficult 366 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: first half schedule in the league. I like the Chargers 367 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: a lot this year, but not in the first half 368 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: of the season. They're gonna be a by by low. 369 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: In the second half, they could start like you know, 370 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: three and five, two and six, they will rebound. Um, 371 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: I'll say, keep an eye on the Denver Broncos and folks. 372 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 1: I posted on my Instagram stories. You know, I post 373 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: a couple of futures bets on there. Um Jacksonville Jaguars 374 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: to win the a f C South, I'm dead serious. 375 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: Houston is a you know, they're a tire fire. Um, 376 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: Tennessee is going down. I think the o C has gone. 377 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: Number one tight end is gone, Number two receivers gone. Um. 378 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry's led the league and carries two straight years. 379 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 1: It looked really shot in their playoff game. He was 380 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: so worn down I'm selling all the Titan stock that 381 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: I have, which is very little. And the Indianapolis culture 382 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: going into the season with no left tackle, and who 383 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: they should get about a month and a half into 384 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: the season is Eric Fisher who's coming on off an 385 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 1: Achilles and their quarterback. Oh yes, Carson Wentz who was 386 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: running for his life last year and was sacked fifty 387 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: times led the league despite missing four games. He holds 388 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: the ball a lot. They don't have a left tackle. 389 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: I know everybody loves the Colts. There's a lot to 390 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: like about them. I don't love them because of this 391 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: left tackle situation. Entered Trevor Lawrence and Urban Meyer. Oh yeah, baby, 392 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,479 Speaker 1: Jacksonville to win the a f C South, I think 393 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: you can get plus eight hundred, nine hundred. It's a 394 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: good number, all right.

Wow. Okay, Isaaca. 440 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: Before we get to our guest, I gotta say some 441 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: news just broke in the sports media world, and as 442 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: a guy who loves announcing, um, yeah, I'm sure this 443 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: is gonna hurt, right Marv Albert the great, marvelous, Yes, 444 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: and it counts one of the greatest announcers in the 445 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: NBA for me, probably the greatest right over the last 446 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: I don't know, thirty years. He is retiring end of 447 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 1: the NBA playoffs. That is just oh, that's like what. 448 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on there. So they dumped 449 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: Chris Webber right right before the playoffs. I like Chris Webber. 450 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people don't like him because 451 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: he's too cool for school and just you know whatever. 452 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: They just don't like Chris Webber. And then I don't 453 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: know what's what's going on with Reggie Miller. Is he 454 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: being kept or is he what's going on with him? 455 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: I don't know about Reggie. But the rumors about Weber 456 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 1: had been going on for a while. And it was 457 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 1: a surprise that had happened on the eve of the 458 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: playoffs instead of after the playoffs. And the rumors about 459 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: Marv Albert's future have been going on for a long time. 460 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, the New York Post just reporting that he 461 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: will retire at the conclusion of the playoffs. So what 462 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 1: a chapter in in in NBA history. Well, we're gonna 463 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: have to dig into the archived scory and get some 464 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: of his I was gonna say, if you could do that, 465 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: now listen, I'm sure there's gonna be a bunch of wackos, Isaac, 466 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: who are like, wait, isn't that the cross dresser Marv 467 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: Albert didn't he have that story? And yeah, he had 468 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: some weirdo situation going on there. I don't particularly remember 469 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 1: it because I'm a positive guy. I like to remember 470 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: the positives. Now, Isaac, off the top of my head, 471 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: I think Marv Albert had the call when Michael Jordan's 472 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: switched hands in the middle of the air against the Lakers. Yeah, yeah, 473 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: I could. I could. I could play it for you 474 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: in five seconds if you want. Okay, yeah, yeah, let's 475 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: play that, um Mark. I mean, Marv Albert's just a 476 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: legend like we could sit here and do an hour 477 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: of Marv Albert's greatest calls. Um, I'm such a huge fan. 478 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: This is just as a crushing loss. If we have 479 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: a number for him, Ryan, I don't know, I'd love 480 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 1: to reach it. I mean, I'm sure he's not gonna 481 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 1: want to talk because he's retiring, But I'm a Marv Albert. 482 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: If you're giving me the best NBA announcers of all time, listen, 483 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: I was a sucker for costUS in the nineties. I 484 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: did like him. I think he did a bunch of 485 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: I think he did Lakers Pacers with Kobe and Shack Um, 486 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: but it really didn't get I liked it. Wasn't it 487 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: marvelous Marv Albert, Steve Snapper Jones and then who was 488 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 1: the third man on that? Well, it was Bill Walton, 489 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: but before that it was Marv Albert and Mike for Tello. 490 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: You're you're the perfect guy to be here for this, 491 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 1: Marv Albert news. Okay, I've actually got the famous right 492 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: to left switching hands lamp for here we go. This 493 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,879 Speaker 1: is a Game two of the NBA Finals in the 494 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: Old Chicago Stadium. Here's Marv Albert on NBC walk. Okay, 495 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: look the lobring story. Jordan's sun short looks shut its 496 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: spectacular Marvel listen, I'm a huge Laker fan. I uh 497 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: backstory leading up to that finals, um, I everybody was saying, oh, 498 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's the best Michael. I was like, no way, 499 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: Magic is the best player. I was steadfast in the 500 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: Magic him and Lakers one game one, I think Sam 501 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: Perkins had a big shot and if I remember correctly, 502 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: Scottie Pippen switched over to guard Magic in game two 503 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: and that kind of flipped the series and Michael Jordan's 504 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: did that move and you were like, oh, oh, what 505 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: what just happened? Oh my gosh, that was That was 506 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: one of the most ridiculous It was. Now, Isaac, if 507 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: you could pull this, this is I think my favorite 508 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: call ever by Marv Albert Bulls Nicks. It had to 509 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: be nineties two or ninety three. Jordan's gets the rebound 510 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: on the baseline, fakes one way, doubles back, and then 511 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: does the dunk on Patrick Ewing and I think he's 512 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: he yells facial um, is there any where you can 513 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: pull that up? And I can get it for you. 514 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: But right now I have ready to go his six 515 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: three pointer in Game one of the Finals against the 516 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 1: Portland's Drug Yes, okay, yes, And one of the things, 517 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: from a technical standpoint, a lot of times when a 518 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 1: guy makes a basket, announcers look down to update their stats. 519 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,959 Speaker 1: But he looked up and he saw the shrug instantly 520 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: to notate did you see that look, Michael, indicating that 521 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: even he can't believe it, I still remember that. Listen, guys, 522 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,719 Speaker 1: this is how much of a nerdy sports fan I am. 523 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 1: I got goose bumps when Isaac played those two clips, 524 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: like I just I can bring myself back in the 525 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 1: moment young Jason watching. And again I was not a 526 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: Jordans fan. I respected him. I didn't like I was 527 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: not a Larry Bird fan. I respected him and he 528 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: was obviously awesome, but I was die hard the magic 529 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: and magic retired and there was a moment that where 530 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: I was like kind of a I didn't have a 531 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: favorite player in the league. I mean, I wanted to 532 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: say it was like Nick van Exel, you know, a 533 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: couple of years later, but in reality it wasn't my favorite. 534 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: I just love watching him. But like I was just 535 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, Patrick Ewing and Knicks. I'm all 536 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: in on my team and they could just never get 537 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: by Jordan. So I think you Ing and the Knicks 538 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: not getting by Jordan's kind of accelerated my distaste. I 539 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: can I say distaste for Jordan's again. I realized he 540 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: is amazing. He never lost in the finals. I got it. 541 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: I've seen all the numbers. I know how amazing he was. 542 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: It doesn't mean I have to root for the guy. 543 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 1: I had my team. Hey, Jason, Yes, I think I've 544 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: got that dunk against the Knicks and one for you. 545 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: Let's see you ready? All right, here's Marv Albert on 546 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: the call, and he was actually calling this not for 547 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: NBC but for m s G because he was the 548 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 1: Knicks television voice at the same time. During the ninety 549 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 1: one playoffs, Jordan Trott strake off starts want a hard 550 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: d and that, oh what a move by Jordan. If 551 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: I recall that was part of the intro for NBA 552 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: inside stuff for many years. I got the facial He's 553 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: saved for the Pep Scottie Pippen dunk on you and playoffs. Um, 554 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: but oh, want to move by Jordan, And you could 555 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: tell when he says that the build up is like, 556 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: oh shucks, he's here, comes, he's about to detonate, and 557 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: then he Jordan just stuffs it on.

It's 579 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: gonna take him out. I can tell you a quick 580 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: anecdote though. You know when Michael Jorge when Marv Albert 581 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: called his first NBA game. It was nineteen sixty three. 582 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: He was filling in on a Knicks Celtics broadcast at 583 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: the Boston Garden and he was twenty years old, and 584 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 1: the security guard at first would not allow him into 585 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,239 Speaker 1: the arena because he couldn't believe here's this twenty year 586 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: old kid claiming that he's going to be the announcer 587 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: for the Knicks for that game. So he had to 588 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: talk his way in to do his first NBA game. 589 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Isaac, I mean good you might have 590 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 1: to take over as the Tsar of the media or something. Alright, 591 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: So we'll get to our guests later. Um, Dan Marv 592 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 1: Albert retiring at the end of the plast, I'm I'm 593 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: kind of devastated. I gotta be honest. I don't like Isaac. 594 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: Just real quick, where are you on the Breen van Gundy? 595 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: Do they have a third man in that booth? Mark Jackson, 596 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: Mark Jackson, Yeah, I mean like I don't love that group. 597 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 1: I don't like I know, Breen is really good. Bang 598 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: van Gundy can get ornery, which is like a different 599 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: kind of good. But I like announcers who are into 600 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: the game like I am, who are excited. This is sports. 601 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: There are millions of people watching and excited.

During the commercial break, 636 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: just now, I got sucked into a Marv Albert rabbit hole. 637 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: Some guy posted a videos I'm sure it's gonna get 638 00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: a ton of us today on YouTube. Marv Albert most 639 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: hyped calls. I'm sure Isaac has some good stuff cooked 640 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 1: up for us in a second, UM, so this one 641 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: that Marv Albert had. By the way, Marv and Reggie Miller, 642 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: I wonder if something's up he Marve Albert was was 643 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: sometimes announcing with Miller, but mostly with Chris Webber. So 644 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: Chris Webber no longer there, and then like two days later, 645 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: Marv's out. I wonder what's going on. Maybe there's some 646 00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: internal strife at Turner UM. But Chris Webber and Marv 647 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: Albert had the call. I think Lebron's first week as 648 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: a Laker, UM they were playing Portland's might have been 649 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,359 Speaker 1: the season opener. I don't know. UM and Lebron gets 650 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: a steel and Chris Webber had been talking, and as 651 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: Lebron's in the open court, Chris Webber goes, I'll shut 652 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,919 Speaker 1: up now and Lebron has his monster dunk. Damian Lillard 653 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,879 Speaker 1: comes down dunks. This is the first like two minutes 654 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 1: of the game. Lebron comes back down the court and 655 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: for whatever the reason, the Red Sea opens and Lebron 656 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 1: dunks and the crowd in Portland goes crazy and Marv 657 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 1: Albert goes nuts. I mean, there really isn't another great 658 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: And again to each his own right, everybody has their 659 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 1: grade announcers in NBA, Major League Baseball, NFL. Listen Madden 660 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: and summer All for a certain generation. I mean, those 661 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: guys are legendary. One of my guys at the Big 662 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: Lead wrote a big piece on Madden and summer All 663 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, like seven or eight years ago, and 664 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: it's still does traffic and it's still like near the 665 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: top of the Google rankings. Um, those guys were legendary 666 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 1: for Fox. To me, Isaac, I don't know about. Do 667 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 1: you have like a top three NBA announcers all time? 668 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,919 Speaker 1: And Albert has to be one right absolutely, And I'm 669 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: totally biased because I grew up in Los Angeles, but 670 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: Chickhern is right at the top of this, so it's 671 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 1: got to be Chickern Marv Albert and then as far 672 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: as anybody else I know, Mike Breen is called the 673 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: most NBA finals, sixteen of them. Yeah, this will be 674 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 1: sixteen for certainly a generation. Dick Stockton was the soundtrack, 675 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: just like Marv was in the nineties. Yeah, Stockton and 676 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: Heinston were awesome. Uh And I didn't like Again, I'm 677 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: not a Boston guy, so I didn't. I didn't know 678 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: Heinsen's history as a young guy, didn't know he was 679 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 1: an amazing player. But he always you could tell he 680 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 1: was a little biased towards the Celtics Stockton. I like 681 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: Dick Stockton a lot, right, I mean you liked him, 682 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm sure. I mean he fit that generation. He was 683 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 1: the soundtrack of those Lakers Celtics bad, just like Marv 684 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: Albert was with the with the nineties bulls. Yes, all right, 685 00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 1: so do we have what do we have? Isaac's surprise me?

Um. 738 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: Also Ryan thought of the Kobe no regard for human life. 739 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: So we'll get to that. But let's get to our guests. Uh. 740 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: He's been on many times a rash Markazi hosted the 741 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 1: rash Markazi Show on the Mighty or ten ninety. He's 742 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: written for every outlet pretty much in America or rash 743 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 1: How are you man, I'm excellent. I want to start here. 744 00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 1: There's a lot of talk in these social media streets 745 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: that the Clippers are ducking the Lakers. Clippers Set Kawai 746 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 1: and Paul George last night ended up losing to the Rockets, 747 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,759 Speaker 1: the tanking Rockets, who have the worst record in basketball. 748 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,719 Speaker 1: And now it looks like the Clippers are headed for 749 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 1: the fourth seed, in which event they would then play 750 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 1: the number one seed in the second round. Lakers look 751 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,359 Speaker 1: like they're headed for the seven, maybe the six. Talk 752 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: me through what you're hearing on Clippers Lakers. Here's the thing. 753 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I think this is definitely the time of 754 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 1: year and this is not new to the Clippers, is 755 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 1: not new to this season. We had to figure out 756 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 1: what is your best matchup and obviously the Lakers when 757 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 1: they're healthy, and they will be healthy if they want 758 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: to play all the guys this weekend for only the 759 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 1: second time this year. So the Lakers are healthy Lebron 760 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:11,239 Speaker 1: James and Anthony Davison and the Drummond and Schroder like, 761 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: this is not a number seven or seed, you know. So, um, 762 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: I would not be shocked if that's what they're they're 763 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 1: they're doing and listen like they are they are not 764 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: new to the whole load management and not playing guys 765 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:29,400 Speaker 1: and so but yeah, I mean, listen that that is 766 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 1: the smart play. I mean, Jason, he do not want 767 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: to play a healthy Lakers team in the first round. 768 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 1: You want to if you can get out of their bracket, 769 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: if you if if you can go and say listening, 770 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 1: if we do have to play a healthy Lakers team, 771 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 1: we want to do that in the conference finals, not 772 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: in the first round. I do wonder though, I mean 773 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: a rush Lebron. I think he's played what like seven 774 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: minutes with the Andre Drummond maybe um, you know, Shrewder 775 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 1: hasn't played because of COVID protocols in two weeks. A 776 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 1: d did look his best ever earlier this week, but 777 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 1: then set out like, I just don't you almost want 778 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,680 Speaker 1: to play the Lakers early as opposed to the Western 779 00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 1: Conference finals when they could be cooking um and they 780 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 1: have gotten all their legs back. Or do you think 781 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:16,919 Speaker 1: it's better to play them early when they're not ready? 782 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 1: Here's here's the problem with that, we do. We don't 783 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: know how they're gonna do when they're all healthy, just 784 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,880 Speaker 1: because they have not been all healthy. At least one 785 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,719 Speaker 1: of these guys has not been on the floor for 786 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,880 Speaker 1: them this year. So again, if they play, and I 787 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:32,960 Speaker 1: don't think they're all gonna play today because at the 788 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 1: ten am Pacific tip against the Pacers, so you know, well, 789 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 1: let's just say that they all played tomorrow, agin we 790 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 1: we It's such a small sample size in terms of 791 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: all those guys being on the court at the same 792 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 1: time Schroder, Lebron, James, Anthony Davis, Drummond Kuzma. I mean, 793 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:54,479 Speaker 1: like one of those guys or multiples have missed time 794 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 1: this year, So this is not the time to kind 795 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,320 Speaker 1: of roll the dice and say, well, you know, we 796 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,800 Speaker 1: we we know what they could be if they're healthy. 797 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,759 Speaker 1: But so again, I would much rather play someone else 798 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: and then play Lebron and Anthony, this and those guys 799 00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: again in the conference finals, or at least in the 800 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 1: second you do not want to play. I mean that 801 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,280 Speaker 1: that is the worst reward. I mean the Utah Jazz, 802 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: that the Phoenix Suns have played well all year, and 803 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: their reward for being a top two seed as well, 804 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 1: played the defending champion Lakers when they're finally healthy. It's 805 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,759 Speaker 1: pretty brutal. I am curious. Like again, I don't want 806 00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 1: to be negative. Laker fans, don't, please, don't get angry 807 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: at this. Lebron has been out here for three seasons now. Rash. 808 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 1: First year he got hurt and you know, his season 809 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,399 Speaker 1: ended early. I think he played like sixties sixty three 810 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 1: or sixty four games. Second season, COVID interrupts it. So 811 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,919 Speaker 1: he gets a five month break, comes back healthy, wins 812 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:52,200 Speaker 1: the title. Third season ankle spring um. You know, two 813 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 1: or three seasons he's been hurt and the other season 814 00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 1: they had like a five month layoff. Rash. Listen, he 815 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 1: is human, right, I think we've checked Lebron's human and 816 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 1: he's what thirties seven? Yeah? You know, is this the 817 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: future of Lebron? Like he has to be on the 818 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 1: back nine now? Right? When he when he mentioned recently 819 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 1: that he's never or probably not gonna be again in 820 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: his career, people were like shocked by that, and it's 821 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 1: and it's it's true, right, Jason, you just mentioned that 822 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 1: he is human, and so this is not a shock. 823 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,360 Speaker 1: I mean what the Lakers have to do moving forward, 824 00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 1: like you can't do it now because you're going into 825 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 1: the playoffs, because what they're doing with Kauai load management, 826 00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 1: not playing the second night of the back to back. 827 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,239 Speaker 1: I mean, the most shocking thing this year is that 828 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 1: I thought when the Lakers one of the finals in 829 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: October and they begin the next season two months later, 830 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,839 Speaker 1: I thought they would they would not play Lebron a ton. 831 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 1: But for whatever reason, I think he had it in 832 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 1: his mind to win Most Valuable Player, and he wanted 833 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,520 Speaker 1: to play. He wanted to play every night. And I'm 834 00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 1: not saying that's the reason why he got hurt. But 835 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: the Lakers are have been in the position that they're 836 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: in because they really wanted to get that number one seed, 837 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: r at the top two seeds. They wanted to win 838 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: the specific divisions. They wanted Lebron to win pulls valuable 839 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 1: Players like not this season, you guys just play. You 840 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: guys just won the finals two months ago, and so 841 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 1: it caught up with them. I mean they are lucky, though, Jason. 842 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 1: I mean the fact that they are now as we 843 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 1: speak today on Saturday. They are healthy because they're they 844 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 1: have all the guys available to them. And again we 845 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 1: don't know how like how they're gonna gell, how they're 846 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: gonna fit and things like that, but on paper, according 847 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: to Vegas, they are still one of the top two 848 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: teams to win the whole thing. Now I haven't checked 849 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 1: the lines this morning, but are the Clippers the favorite 850 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 1: to win the whole thing? So the Clippers Lakers are 851 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: tied at number two, right behind the nets. I mean, 852 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 1: those are the top three days if you were to 853 00:47:48,520 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 1: go to Vegas right now, those are the top I 854 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: just wonder where are you on the Clippers are. There's 855 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 1: such a tough read. It's like you want to trust them. 856 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 1: In the numbers, they leave the league in three point shooting. 857 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,800 Speaker 1: They have two of the top fifteen players. But just 858 00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: based on last season and the choke jobs this year 859 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: and Paul George and big games, for some reason, I 860 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 1: don't want to I'm not pushing the narrative that you know, 861 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,319 Speaker 1: Kauai could leave or something, but it feels like they're 862 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,279 Speaker 1: I just don't feel great about the Clippers. Here's the thing. 863 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,719 Speaker 1: There is no Clipper fan, even Clipper Darryl. You talk 864 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: to the biggest Clipper fanatic, No one's confident. And when 865 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,240 Speaker 1: I say confident because they have not done this before, 866 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 1: I mean they've never made it to the conference final. 867 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 1: So you're talking about even if you're a hardcore Clippers fan, 868 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 1: you've seen them blow a three one seriously to Houston 869 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: back when they had Blake and Chris and that team. 870 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 1: You've seen them amazingly last year when you saw those 871 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: days were over with Kauai and Paul George. So with 872 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:47,080 Speaker 1: three one sees seriously to the Nuggets. So my, my, my, 873 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:50,280 Speaker 1: my view on them is they're going into the playoffs, 874 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:53,359 Speaker 1: they're in good positions. They're gonna win the first round 875 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 1: even if they have a three one. Seriously in the 876 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 1: second round, I am not going to be consident that 877 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna to the conference finals until they finally get 878 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 1: there again. In their franchise history, Build Buffalo, Praise the 879 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: San Diego Clippers, Los Angeles Clippers. This franchise has never 880 00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 1: made it past the second rounds until they do. And 881 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 1: not that that's a championship for a teams of talent 882 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:19,200 Speaker 1: and they've never done this, you really can't be confident yet. 883 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 1: I'm I'm a little curious, Abrush real quick, where are 884 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 1: you on the on the Brooklyn Nets, because there are 885 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: another team. I think they're gonna have their three stars 886 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:28,799 Speaker 1: tonight together for the first time in the two months. 887 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: I just we don't know how this team is gonna 888 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: handle adversity. And we saw the Clippers last year have 889 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 1: face adversity and they struggled in all of them. Well, 890 00:49:37,360 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 1: we got three superstars lumped together here, and I don't 891 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:43,359 Speaker 1: know if Kyrie's gonna crack or James Harden is gonna 892 00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 1: you know, become the old James Harden or what who's 893 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 1: gonna be the leaders? A lot of questions with the 894 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 1: nets to right, that's my problem with that teams. I 895 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: don't think those pieces did. When you look at Kyrie, 896 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 1: Katie and James Harden, they bring a lot of dramas 897 00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 1: to the table, a lot of talent. Of course we 898 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:02,120 Speaker 1: know that, but in terms of of one thing, if 899 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 1: one thing goes bad, well, well Katie goes south, will 900 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 1: James Harden goes up? We've seen Kyrie, I mean the 901 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: drama that comes with that talent. So yes, they are 902 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:14,280 Speaker 1: one of, if not the most talented team on paper. 903 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 1: I don't think those pieces fit and we're gonna see that. 904 00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 1: I think in the playoffs, if they hit some kind 905 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: of adversity, that's gonna be a problem. Alright. I Rack 906 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: will wrap up with this NBA Hall of Fame weekend. 907 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 1: I don't get as nostalgic as many about the Hall 908 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:31,959 Speaker 1: of Fame others baseball football back I just for whatever reason, 909 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 1: I'm not. It's not a huge thing for me. But 910 00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: with Kobe going in and Jordan's introducing him, I think 911 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,360 Speaker 1: it's probably gonna carry a little heavier meaning this weekend, 912 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: where are you on the Hall of Fame stuff? Normally 913 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 1: I would not be watching, but obviously Kobe going in 914 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 1: it seems so much. Obviously in Wall, Los Angeles and 915 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 1: Vanessa Briant again when she spoke at the memorial, I 916 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:58,160 Speaker 1: thought that would be the beginning of her public speaking 917 00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:00,360 Speaker 1: and we would see her. We really have so just 918 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 1: to hear and see Vanessa as well, that's gonna be huge. 919 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 1: And so I I am so looking forward to tonight. 920 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: I think anything with Kobe means so much to people here, 921 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,880 Speaker 1: all right, folks.

Uh, 951 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 1: you know this this Clippers team, I just can't buy them. 952 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 1: I'm sure when I do Undisputed tomorrow, Clippers will become 953 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: a topic because they like to make it a topic. 954 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,200 Speaker 1: And um, I called them frauds last time. And that 955 00:52:56,239 --> 00:53:00,279 Speaker 1: guy a Rash mentioned uh Clipper Darrell Darryl. Will you 956 00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: say it, Cliver Daryl? Yeah, he challenged me to a fight. 957 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 1: He's like, I will fight you. You can't call my 958 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 1: team frauds. Alright, settled down, dude, um Isaac before we 959 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: go to break any other um, Marve Albert calls you 960 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:20,320 Speaker 1: wanna um fire. Sure, We've got John Paxson's three pointer 961 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 1: to win the NBA Finals at Phoenix. This is Game 962 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 1: six with the Bulls leading the series three games to two. 963 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 1: In the final moments, here's Marv Albert and Mike for 964 00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:43,919 Speaker 1: Tello on NBC. Michael to get a toll of steam, 965 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 1: try to keep you in the body. Yes, stop pretty much, 966 00:53:54,880 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 1: call for sharts, circuits, have a fourth quarter shot che 967 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 1: church quarter pretty much. And if you're wondering where yes 968 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 1: came from, Marv actually got that from a very famous 969 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 1: official back in the day. Sid Borgia was his name. 970 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:24,920 Speaker 1: He was a referee and when there was a continuation basket, 971 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:29,800 Speaker 1: sid Borgia would exclaim yes, and that's where Marv gotten. 972 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,239 Speaker 1: Yes from Marv actually back in the day was a 973 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:37,040 Speaker 1: ball boy for the Knicks when he was growing up. Wow, 974 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: little history lesson from Isaac. Uh, It's so weird listening 975 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 1: to that breakdown. I didn't I believe that series ended 976 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,560 Speaker 1: four two, right it did. That was Game six. So 977 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:50,320 Speaker 1: if Paxson had missed and the Sun's win, that that 978 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:52,080 Speaker 1: would have been the first time Jordan had to go 979 00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 1: seven in the finals, and as it turned out, the 980 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 1: only time. Yeah. Yeah, they they went seven I think 981 00:54:56,920 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 1: against the Pacers, right, Uh in the Eastern Conference finals. 982 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,560 Speaker 1: There were plenty of game seven's in the playoffs along 983 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 1: the way, but all the finals that he won, with 984 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 1: the exception of the ninety one finals against the Lakers, 985 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 1: were in game six, and they all had dramatic finishes. 986 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 1: In Game six of ninety two was the comeback against 987 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:20,240 Speaker 1: Portlands led by reserves the likes of Bobby Hansen, Paxston, 988 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 1: and ninety three, the clincher on Father's Day in Game 989 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:27,440 Speaker 1: six against the SuperSonics, and ninety six, the Kerr shot 990 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: in ninety seven Game six after the flu game in 991 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 1: Game five, and then obviously the game winning shot he 992 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,080 Speaker 1: made after the Steel against Karl Malone and ninety eight, 993 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:36,640 Speaker 1: I think that, you know, and again I don't want 994 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 1: to get into Jordan Lebron here, but I think that 995 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: speaks to just how weak the Western Conference was after 996 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,800 Speaker 1: Magic Johnson left. I mean, look at the teens A 997 00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 1: beat oh Seattle will they won sixty four games? Did 998 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 1: they ever get back to the finals? Were they that good? 999 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,520 Speaker 1: Peyton and Kemp? I don't know. Portland was good, but 1000 00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:56,359 Speaker 1: they were on their last legs. Drexler ended up leaving. 1001 00:55:57,239 --> 00:56:00,400 Speaker 1: The Sons were kind of a slapped together at an 1002 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 1: MVP year, and the Jazz were like really really good, 1003 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 1: but they were typical bridesmaids, right. I mean, who was 1004 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:10,359 Speaker 1: the third best player? Isaac Byron Russell, Greg ostertag Greg 1005 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 1: Oster third third best player Byron Russell, I would say 1006 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:19,759 Speaker 1: the likes of Jeff Hornet sec. Yeah, Jeff best player? 1007 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 1: I mean, does Jeff horn Is sec? Is he the 1008 00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:25,360 Speaker 1: first guy off the bench on the Durant Curry Warriors. 1009 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know if he's the first guy off 1010 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:29,479 Speaker 1: the bench. But but but think about this, Think about 1011 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 1: the heroics that the Bulls had to use to beat 1012 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:35,439 Speaker 1: them in nine seven, and you had the epic from 1013 00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:38,839 Speaker 1: game performance by Jordan and nine seven in Game six 1014 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:41,320 Speaker 1: of that series still came down to the wire and 1015 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,480 Speaker 1: it took that clutch shot by uh Steve Kur to 1016 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:48,320 Speaker 1: beat him. And then remember the Jazz actually have the 1017 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 1: home court advantage in that series, and Pippen had a 1018 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:55,759 Speaker 1: bad back injury reaggravated in game six. So if they 1019 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 1: have to go to a game seven, how effective can 1020 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 1: Scottie Pippen b if he can't even play? Yeah? No, 1021 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: I mean they pulled him out, um, And it's tough 1022 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,359 Speaker 1: to win a lot, you know, especially when you win 1023 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:08,439 Speaker 1: three straight. You know, it's tough to keep that going. 1024 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 1: Of course, Jordan did quit and then came back after 1025 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 1: a year and a half but lost to the Orlanngel 1026 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,840 Speaker 1: Magic and Donald Royal. Yes, that really happened. But I 1027 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: would say, I would say that the Jazz was the 1028 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 1: best Western Conference foe that the Bulls faced in the 1029 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: finals during their run. In my estimation, were they better 1030 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,040 Speaker 1: than those Nix teams from the early nineties. No, no, 1031 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 1: I mean the finals fair enough? Fair enough? All right? 1032 00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 1: Coming up next, I wanna Iowa Saym's in the building now, 1033 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:36,880 Speaker 1: and I know Ryan has some doze coin. And I'm 1034 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,240 Speaker 1: sure I sure you guys heard the podcast on the 1035 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 1: New York Times Daily or read it in the New 1036 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 1: York Times about this doze coin millionaire.

Now, 1046 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 1: the other team scored first, and I was a little 1047 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 1: nervous because I had seen them before. They're stacked. And 1048 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 1: then my son scored the equalizer. And he scored three straight, 1049 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 1: three games with three goals. Really proud of him. He's 1050 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:39,400 Speaker 1: made some strides.

Um 1056 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,400 Speaker 1: so I read this, you know, I saw the story 1057 00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:59,840 Speaker 1: The New York Times has been pumping up the doge 1058 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: coin Millionaire. And then I, you know, opened the podcast 1059 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:06,919 Speaker 1: and of course, I uh, you guys know the straight Fire. 1060 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: I know you subscribe, so you see it in the 1061 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 1: feed every day. The only New York Times podcast I 1062 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 1: subscribed to is The Daily. And there they did a 1063 00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 1: podcast the doge coin Millionaire, and I'm like, what is 1064 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 1: going on? And I just felt it was a little 1065 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: irresponsible to be championing this guy. I'm not gonna say 1066 00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: his name. You could read the story, um who's basically 1067 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 1: known as the doge Father, because this guy went saved 1068 00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:38,840 Speaker 1: up all his money. Okay, he stead he wanted to 1069 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: buy a house and he you know, they wanted an 1070 00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: all cash house. And he's like, I don't have all 1071 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 1: the cash. I'm ready to put down. They said no. 1072 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,919 Speaker 1: So he's like, forget it, I'm putting all my money. 1073 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,320 Speaker 1: Everything he had saved for like I don't know ten years. 1074 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 1: They pulled even pulled money. You took out a loan, 1075 00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 1: which is the dumbest thing you can do to invest 1076 00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 1: um and put it all on doge coin. And this 1077 00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 1: was a few months back. Now the good news is 1078 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,080 Speaker 1: it's gone up, and so now the New York Times 1079 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,440 Speaker 1: is calling him the dosecoin millionaire. But time out, he's 1080 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 1: not a millionaire. He's a paper millionaire. And I am 1081 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: rooting for this guy. I want to be clear. I 1082 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 1: hope he makes his money, and I hope he cashes 1083 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,920 Speaker 1: out in time because we saw a bunch of guys 1084 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 1: jump on the game stock thing, game stop sorry, and 1085 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 1: they got left hold in the bag and they lost 1086 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: a ton. Okay, I hope this guy gets the memo, bro, 1087 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:34,919 Speaker 1: you gotta cash out. And we're at this weird time 1088 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:38,960 Speaker 1: of investing where I don't know this concept of making 1089 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 1: money and investing are two totally different things, completely different. Historically, 1090 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 1: you invest where you buy and hold. Okay, making money 1091 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 1: is a job, or you create something or you build something. 1092 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:59,080 Speaker 1: Dose Coin is a meme. Stock doesn't produce anything at all. 1093 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,920 Speaker 1: And I would bet you if we pulled this audience. 1094 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 1: This is the largest, by the way, the largest weekend 1095 01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 1: radio show at Fox Sports Radio. More affiliates than any 1096 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:13,360 Speaker 1: other news or sports. I bet you if we pulled 1097 01:01:13,400 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 1: this audience of them our paper millionaires. Because of the 1098 01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:23,200 Speaker 1: age bracket. You know, if you got a job, you 1099 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 1: know when you were five whatever, you've invested in your 1100 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,440 Speaker 1: four oh one k UH. You're putting money in the 1101 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 1: in the stocks and bonds and everything. With compound interest. 1102 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,720 Speaker 1: Over twenty years, you've probably got a million dollars. And 1103 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 1: guess what, in another twenty years, when you're set to retire, 1104 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:41,560 Speaker 1: you're probably gonna have three or four million dollars. That's 1105 01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: how compound interest works. It's sort a beautiful thing. Okay, 1106 01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:48,840 Speaker 1: but that does not mean just because you have a 1107 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 1: million now in in investments that you're a millionaire. You're 1108 01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: not unless you're you have a liquid one million dollars. Hey, man, 1109 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:57,960 Speaker 1: I had this awesome thing I need. I want you 1110 01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 1: to invest in the buy in as a million dollars. 1111 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 1: Can you come up with a million dollars? Well, if 1112 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: you liquidate all your UH investments and you'd pay a 1113 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: huge tax prices, sure you can. Guys. A lot of 1114 01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:14,280 Speaker 1: people thought when I sold the website a decade ago, 1115 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 1: they read about in the New York Times and they 1116 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:17,920 Speaker 1: saw a number figure, they were like, oh, Jason's rich. 1117 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,960 Speaker 1: Well not really. Remember I had been working for pennies 1118 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 1: for the website. For the blog when it started, I 1119 01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 1: had quit my job at a magazine, and I said, 1120 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:28,200 Speaker 1: I've been doing the website for a year. I think 1121 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 1: it's ready to make money. I quit my job. I 1122 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 1: get my first check and it was for like and 1123 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:34,560 Speaker 1: I wrote down the number here. I think it was 1124 01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:37,400 Speaker 1: eight six dollars somewhere in that ballpark, and I'm like, 1125 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I could pay the phone bill. I 1126 01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:44,720 Speaker 1: had just moved in a little while prior with the 1127 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 1: girlfriend who would become the wife. Luckily she had a job. 1128 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:49,920 Speaker 1: But I didn't want to quit my job until I 1129 01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 1: knew all right, we're serious. You know we're getting engaged. 1130 01:02:54,040 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. I'm not going all in on the website. 1131 01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 1: If I didn't have a backup, meaning your wife and 1132 01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 1: her full time job, I was not going to do that. 1133 01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:07,840 Speaker 1: That's way too risky. I get it. There are some 1134 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 1: people who are willing to risk everything. That's fine. That 1135 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: usually does not end well, especially when you're putting all 1136 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 1: in on a doge coin, a meme stock, like I 1137 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: hope the sky wins. But you know, there's this great quote, 1138 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:28,120 Speaker 1: the elevator to the top is out of order. You 1139 01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 1: gotta take it one step at a time. That's reality. 1140 01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: Everybody wants to be rich, happy, and healthy. Right, It's 1141 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:38,040 Speaker 1: easy to do two of those. You can be happy, 1142 01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:43,000 Speaker 1: control what you can control, be happy, healthy, eat right, 1143 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, exercise, workout. You can be healthy. Rich is 1144 01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,960 Speaker 1: the tough one. That is the difficult one. And I 1145 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 1: feel like so many young people now with these stocks 1146 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:54,680 Speaker 1: and the meme stocks in the game stof they just 1147 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:57,680 Speaker 1: they want to get rich quick and like that very 1148 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 1: rarely happens. It's disappointing.

So we have been 1199 01:07:24,840 --> 01:07:26,600 Speaker 1: working on getting it together. We did a little preview 1200 01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 1: and then the first one is gonna come out this week, 1201 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,840 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be teammates and friends around the league 1202 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:33,640 Speaker 1: and you know, go outside of just football, because Shelby 1203 01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,920 Speaker 1: is definitely gonna be working in sports radio when he's 1204 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:37,959 Speaker 1: done playing, and so this is just kind of getting 1205 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:40,080 Speaker 1: him ready for it. Yeah, that sounds promising, and listen, 1206 01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:43,120 Speaker 1: this could be a really good season for that, especially 1207 01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 1: if you guys get Aaron Rodgers in Denver. What's the latest, Brandon? 1208 01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,680 Speaker 1: Like is it? It felt during the draft like the 1209 01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:54,080 Speaker 1: winds were swirling toward Rogers to Denver. Mark Loress, who 1210 01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:58,600 Speaker 1: I work with out here, had some comments, Um, but 1211 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:01,520 Speaker 1: now that time has asked, our cooler head's gonna prevail 1212 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 1: in Green Bay's like, Okay, whatever money you want, we'll 1213 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 1: keep you here. What what are you feeling? Well, that's 1214 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: certainly the momentum that's building this week. And Alfred Williams 1215 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:12,920 Speaker 1: and as our afternoon show on k o A, the 1216 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:16,360 Speaker 1: Bronco slagship here at iHeart who he's stink and I 1217 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,760 Speaker 1: all work together before it that the stations think still 1218 01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:23,679 Speaker 1: at it years ago he said he's hearing that they're 1219 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,040 Speaker 1: working on a monster contractor Ann Rogers. I didn't pick 1220 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:27,760 Speaker 1: up a lot of traction yesterday when he tweeted that, 1221 01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 1: and so I don't know where it stands. It certainly 1222 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:34,080 Speaker 1: is you know, the temperature is cool a bit like 1223 01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:37,200 Speaker 1: you said. But I even go back to Deshaun Watson 1224 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:39,240 Speaker 1: and for those couple of weeks to Russell Wilson, the 1225 01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:41,280 Speaker 1: idea that he was maybe in the leef seattle until 1226 01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:45,360 Speaker 1: anything is finalized. One thing that a fan base, any 1227 01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:47,760 Speaker 1: fan base really across the boards, has his hope, right, 1228 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,720 Speaker 1: So there's no reason to put the kai bosh on 1229 01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:53,600 Speaker 1: it now. If you're a Broncos fan, until there is 1230 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 1: a new deal and he's in Green Bay, or he's 1231 01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:58,839 Speaker 1: retired and hosting Jeopardy, you're doing something else and officially 1232 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 1: done so until the you know, the book is closed. 1233 01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,400 Speaker 1: I think Broncos fans are gonna cross their fingers that 1234 01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:08,040 Speaker 1: Drew Lock figures it out, but really hold out hope 1235 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 1: that Aaron Rodgers chooses the Broncos because of the pieces 1236 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,479 Speaker 1: that are going to be put in place around it. All. Right, 1237 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,439 Speaker 1: then let's say you guys don't get Rogers. I think 1238 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:18,639 Speaker 1: this is still a playoff team. Brandon am I crazy. 1239 01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 1: I like all the parts on offensive offensive line will see. Uh, 1240 01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:25,360 Speaker 1: the defense, I think it's gonna be great under fung Geo. 1241 01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:28,840 Speaker 1: Uh is this a playoff team if it's Teddy b 1242 01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 1: or Drew Lockett quarterback? I think so that we know 1243 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:35,280 Speaker 1: who Teddy Bridgewater is. Last year he had his best 1244 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:38,240 Speaker 1: year production wise, fifteen whole touchdowns, which is I want 1245 01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:40,160 Speaker 1: to say with maybe Drew lock had too, and Drew 1246 01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:42,960 Speaker 1: had more interceptions, but Teddy had his most interceptions with 1247 01:09:43,000 --> 01:09:45,880 Speaker 1: eleven in the in the New Orleans offense for those 1248 01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 1: five games, nine touchdowns and two picks. So that projects 1249 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:51,799 Speaker 1: out to in a you know, in an ideal situation, 1250 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 1: thirty touchdown prege fifty touchdown guy that can go toe 1251 01:09:55,960 --> 01:10:00,080 Speaker 1: to toe with Mahomes or we think Justin Herbert. But 1252 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:02,040 Speaker 1: he may not have to because, like you said, this 1253 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 1: defense under Vick fan, Joe von Miller's back for maybe 1254 01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 1: his final year in Denver. Will see how that plays 1255 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 1: out with the new contract. I know if Aaron Rodgers 1256 01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 1: shows up, Bonds not going anywhere He's he's not gonna 1257 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 1: be looking for greener Patrick Bradley Chubb coming off a 1258 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl year, Justin Simmons coming off a Pro Bowl year. 1259 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:20,200 Speaker 1: Now the I s paid safety in football. You know, 1260 01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:22,920 Speaker 1: I mentioned Shelby Harris, he had his best year, and 1261 01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 1: so there are certain increas they add all these corners, 1262 01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 1: Kyle Fuller, former All Pro, with Vic getting Bryce Scotland 1263 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 1: back tell hoping they signed Ronald Darby who, after being 1264 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:33,719 Speaker 1: really banged up, played more snaps than any corner football. 1265 01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:35,920 Speaker 1: So the pieces are there on offense. Courtland Sutton, does 1266 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 1: Garry Do take a step now A fan Melvin Gordon 1267 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 1: now Javonte Williams. So if threw Lock can meet his 1268 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:45,080 Speaker 1: potential and not turn the ball over, and or if 1269 01:10:45,160 --> 01:10:47,000 Speaker 1: he's got that short leash and he can't get over 1270 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:49,479 Speaker 1: the turnover bug and they put Teddy And I'm with you, 1271 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're wearing in division with that 1272 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:53,360 Speaker 1: in those quarterbacks right now because of the other two 1273 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 1: qbs I mentioned, But I do think that they'll be 1274 01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:59,240 Speaker 1: in in the conversation for one of those three wild 1275 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:02,080 Speaker 1: card spots. Uh, talk to me about the the young 1276 01:11:02,200 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 1: running back out of North Carolina, Javonte Williams, Like, can 1277 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:08,720 Speaker 1: this guy make some noise? Because I did read a 1278 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:11,639 Speaker 1: stat that he led college football I think in broken 1279 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:15,360 Speaker 1: tackles last year. Um, the guy's a machine, and I 1280 01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:17,360 Speaker 1: just I'm curious how much he can play early. I 1281 01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:20,080 Speaker 1: know Melvin Gordon kind of. I don't know if he 1282 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:21,760 Speaker 1: was in the doghouse last year, but he did have 1283 01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:26,400 Speaker 1: the off field incident. Um, what's the situation of running back? Well, 1284 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:29,000 Speaker 1: I think Williams, they're gonna ease him in and if 1285 01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,760 Speaker 1: he demands more playing time then he'll get it. So 1286 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 1: it seemed like every week, and it really wasn't every 1287 01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:36,920 Speaker 1: week because either Philip Lindy was banged up or Melvin 1288 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 1: Gordon was He was sick one week, which was coincided 1289 01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:42,519 Speaker 1: with the week after he got the d v I. 1290 01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 1: He was legitimately had the flu or something. Uh. But 1291 01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:47,479 Speaker 1: they were never on the field. It was like eight 1292 01:11:47,560 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: games where we had to ask Pat Shermer and big 1293 01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:51,760 Speaker 1: fan Joe Hey, who's the starter and or how are 1294 01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:53,680 Speaker 1: you splitting up the work and they're not gonna give 1295 01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:55,720 Speaker 1: us a full game plan. But it was a conversation. 1296 01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 1: I don't think we're having that conversation, at least not early. 1297 01:11:58,120 --> 01:12:01,000 Speaker 1: I think Javonte Williams will be a nice and it's 1298 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 1: even though he and Melbourne are similar, but change of 1299 01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:06,200 Speaker 1: pace or just you know, a little little different um 1300 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:10,080 Speaker 1: running back just because he's a different person. But I 1301 01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 1: think if you're drafting for fantasy, and it's obviously way 1302 01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:14,160 Speaker 1: too early now we're sitting here in May, I would 1303 01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 1: think Melvin Melvin Gordon is your goal line back, your 1304 01:12:17,320 --> 01:12:21,320 Speaker 1: primary touch guy, and it's gonna be Gordon to start. 1305 01:12:21,560 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 1: That could change. And the interesting thing about Williams in 1306 01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 1: the last two years with Michael Carter in North Carolina, 1307 01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 1: they've really split all the work and he still had 1308 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:30,920 Speaker 1: nineteen touchdowns on the ground last year, but they each 1309 01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:33,200 Speaker 1: had like a hundred and fifty the numbers literally like 1310 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:37,360 Speaker 1: one for carries and they each had like whatever that 1311 01:12:37,439 --> 01:12:40,439 Speaker 1: number thirty if the exact came amount of catches. But 1312 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:43,439 Speaker 1: Williams is just a little more productive. Carter was productive too, 1313 01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:45,320 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna be a nice back son 1314 01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:48,160 Speaker 1: down in the Senior Bowl. But I think Williams can 1315 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 1: be special. So they they've got Gordon for one more year. 1316 01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,479 Speaker 1: It's gonna cost eight million bucks, and then I think 1317 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:56,160 Speaker 1: next year Javontay Williams really becomes the man. And so 1318 01:12:56,320 --> 01:12:58,519 Speaker 1: maybe if you're in a dynasty league of keeper league, 1319 01:12:58,640 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 1: I'd be drafting Javonte will him. And he's certainly going 1320 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:03,280 Speaker 1: to be probably a good streaming play week the week 1321 01:13:03,360 --> 01:13:05,200 Speaker 1: or DFS because of the value because he will find 1322 01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:07,240 Speaker 1: the end zone. And they don't trade up from forty 1323 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 1: five just to sit a running back, right, you don't 1324 01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 1: sit running back. Other positions you might sit, you don't 1325 01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 1: sit running back. Fantasy and DFS stuff, Brandon all I 1326 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 1: love it. I mean just bringing the noise. Um. Let 1327 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 1: me just quickly ask, you know, what is the situation 1328 01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:24,280 Speaker 1: at head coach? You know Vic? You know last year 1329 01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,800 Speaker 1: that he could blame the injuries, but I know he's 1330 01:13:26,880 --> 01:13:29,840 Speaker 1: kind of an older guy, and is this a year 1331 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:31,519 Speaker 1: where he has to win because he has all the 1332 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:33,640 Speaker 1: pieces in place? I think he has two out of 1333 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:36,920 Speaker 1: the three defensive backs. He said, Fuller and Callahan were 1334 01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:39,960 Speaker 1: with him on that awesome Bears defense. Like I don't 1335 01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:42,120 Speaker 1: know is he like get to the playoffs, so we're 1336 01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:43,640 Speaker 1: gonna be looking for a new head coach and then 1337 01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:46,439 Speaker 1: get a quarterback with the new guy. I think it 1338 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:49,360 Speaker 1: depends on how the season plays out. Right. He hasn't 1339 01:13:49,400 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 1: won a game in September. Schedule makers did all they 1340 01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 1: could to help him out there at the Giants, at 1341 01:13:55,240 --> 01:13:57,840 Speaker 1: the Jags and the Jets at home. Uh you know, 1342 01:13:58,000 --> 01:13:59,560 Speaker 1: not trying to hurt your feelings, but those feel like 1343 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:02,560 Speaker 1: Nabowl one of those should be September one. I'm not 1344 01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:04,840 Speaker 1: saying they're gonna win all three. We'll see, although I 1345 01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:07,960 Speaker 1: do like their roster better than those teams right now. 1346 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,719 Speaker 1: Uh So, if if they're close games and it looks 1347 01:14:11,800 --> 01:14:14,320 Speaker 1: like he's not the reason they're losing because he forgets 1348 01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:16,360 Speaker 1: to call a time out, like what happened against the 1349 01:14:16,400 --> 01:14:18,639 Speaker 1: Titans and the opener, and he said he was focused 1350 01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:21,479 Speaker 1: on the defense, and everybody's you know, if you played 1351 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:23,760 Speaker 1: Matt and I subbed him as a sideline reporter that 1352 01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:26,559 Speaker 1: game because our sideline reporter was sick for Monday night opener. 1353 01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:28,800 Speaker 1: And I'm standing, you know, basically right behind him in 1354 01:14:28,840 --> 01:14:31,439 Speaker 1: the first row, and I'm getting texts from a million 1355 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:33,400 Speaker 1: people and I'm hearing in my ear, like you know 1356 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:36,559 Speaker 1: from the radio broadcast team, you need to call time out? 1357 01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:38,240 Speaker 1: Why doesn't he call it time out? And so he 1358 01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:40,320 Speaker 1: can't have those gas because even though I think George 1359 01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:42,760 Speaker 1: Peyton new Gym really likes him, and I think VIC 1360 01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:45,360 Speaker 1: was part of the selling point because George saw what 1361 01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:48,160 Speaker 1: it can do with defenses in Chicago and everywhere else 1362 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,840 Speaker 1: because he was in Minnesota for so long. He has 1363 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:54,680 Speaker 1: to show that he is learning from past mistakes, if 1364 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:56,840 Speaker 1: you will, and involving as a head coach because we 1365 01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:58,400 Speaker 1: know he can coach the heck out of defense. He 1366 01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:00,840 Speaker 1: might be the best defensive coordinator football right now. His 1367 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:04,479 Speaker 1: game plans what everyone has stolen to use against the Chiefs, 1368 01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:05,680 Speaker 1: and you have to have the players to do it. 1369 01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:09,280 Speaker 1: But it's essentially what what he's been doing against Mahomes 1370 01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:12,360 Speaker 1: and their recent matchups and keeping games closer. With that 1371 01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:14,720 Speaker 1: in quote, because Bronco's offense haven't been good. So I 1372 01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:16,600 Speaker 1: think it's not the shortest leash in the world's not 1373 01:15:16,680 --> 01:15:18,800 Speaker 1: the hottest seat. But if it's a if it's bad 1374 01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:20,960 Speaker 1: out of the game, especially those teams I mentioned, or 1375 01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 1: if it looks like he's just not getting it, then, 1376 01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:25,640 Speaker 1: I don't think George Peyton will hesitate to move on 1377 01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:27,560 Speaker 1: from back and get the next guy. All right. He 1378 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:32,680 Speaker 1: is Brandon Crystal Sports anchor reporter ko A, Colorado, and 1379 01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:36,400 Speaker 1: again check out his new podcast with Shelby Harris.

If anybody any 1427 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:37,400 Speaker 1: of our East Coasters have been to Dewey Beach, it 1428 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:40,720 Speaker 1: is a ridiculously good beach town in the summer. Um. 1429 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,559 Speaker 1: It's just like I think, it's like four city blocks 1430 01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:46,240 Speaker 1: and there's just a ton of bars, and it's young people, 1431 01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 1: and it's like how many girls can you work up with? 1432 01:18:49,040 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 1: Like you go to one bar and make something happen, 1433 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:54,080 Speaker 1: maybe leave, and then you're back out at the bar 1434 01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 1: scene like a couple of hours.

Like, Oh, that's 1448 01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:42,360 Speaker 1: certainly a huge storyline starting with with with the playing 1449 01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:46,560 Speaker 1: games obviously, but oh absolutely major major storyline is just 1450 01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:48,519 Speaker 1: being healthy. And you don't want that to be a 1451 01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:51,160 Speaker 1: storyline like you don't want COVID to be a storyline 1452 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 1: of of of sports. You don't want injuries Already. Jamal 1453 01:19:55,160 --> 01:19:58,639 Speaker 1: Murray's down, we don't We'll see about James Harden Lebron. 1454 01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:02,160 Speaker 1: I am fired, So I'm trying to understand this Steph 1455 01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:07,520 Speaker 1: Curry situation. So the Warriors play I think the Grizzlies 1456 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 1: on Sunday, and that is like basically gonna determine who 1457 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:14,320 Speaker 1: gets eight? Is that what it is? Absolutely winner take 1458 01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:18,760 Speaker 1: off for the eight? Ye so you know I mean 1459 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:22,599 Speaker 1: part of me. So let's say the Warriors win, they 1460 01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 1: then play the Lakers for the seven. Assuming the Lakers 1461 01:20:26,240 --> 01:20:28,599 Speaker 1: Lakers have to win tonight they play the Pacers or today, 1462 01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:32,280 Speaker 1: I should say, yeah, and actually Lebron, Anthony Davis, Dennis 1463 01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:34,599 Speaker 1: shrewder All in the line of for the Lakers today. Wow, 1464 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:38,400 Speaker 1: that's official. It's official, Frank Vogel said, just now, okay, 1465 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:42,080 Speaker 1: So if the Lakers win and Portland's has to lose, 1466 01:20:42,160 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 1: Portland's playing somebody good forgive me for not knowing this 1467 01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:47,519 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. Portland's playing Denver. Denver 1468 01:20:47,680 --> 01:20:51,160 Speaker 1: wants to win because it would like the three seed 1469 01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:53,960 Speaker 1: thanks to that Clippers choke job last night. And again, 1470 01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:56,360 Speaker 1: all these permutations are silly. I don't want to go 1471 01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:58,880 Speaker 1: overboard because it's just gonna be determined in forty eight hours. 1472 01:20:59,360 --> 01:21:02,720 Speaker 1: But if the Lakers steal the six, they'll play the three. 1473 01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:07,160 Speaker 1: Denver then they would play Phoenix, uh, which is two 1474 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:10,840 Speaker 1: and probably gonna be locked in it too. Um, Utah 1475 01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,679 Speaker 1: is gonna be the number one seed that you talk 1476 01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:16,000 Speaker 1: Clippers series second round. I don't think the Clips are 1477 01:21:16,040 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 1: gonna have a problem with Luca and the MAVs. Uh 1478 01:21:20,479 --> 01:21:24,000 Speaker 1: Clippers Jazz second round. You know the big weakness for 1479 01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:27,680 Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz is wing wing defense. I mean it's 1480 01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 1: like Joe Ingalls, Bug Bogdanovich, Royce O'Neil. We know they 1481 01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:36,280 Speaker 1: struggle against Lebron. How are they gonna do against Paul 1482 01:21:36,320 --> 01:21:40,599 Speaker 1: George and Kauai. I do feel bad for Utah. Um, 1483 01:21:40,920 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 1: we'll do a lot on the NBA Playoffs. In the 1484 01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:45,360 Speaker 1: final hour, We're gonna go back to Tim Tebow because 1485 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,280 Speaker 1: you love it so much. And the NFL schedule released, 1486 01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:52,200 Speaker 1: we got Rick Buker. Final hour is going to be ridiculous.

But we did just 1494 01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 1: get a text here to the studio. I'm not gonna 1495 01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:24,960 Speaker 1: say who it's from because I don't want to put 1496 01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:28,280 Speaker 1: him on blast um and listen, we got a lot 1497 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:30,920 Speaker 1: to get to today. The final hour the show has 1498 01:22:30,960 --> 01:22:33,479 Speaker 1: been jam packed. Isaac has been on one. He's just 1499 01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 1: finding great Marv Albert clips and we're just playing him 1500 01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:42,479 Speaker 1: because Marv Albert's retiring after this uh NBA Playoffs. That's 1501 01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:45,000 Speaker 1: a big loss for the NBA. Love me some Marve Albert. 1502 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if the young millennials will have to 1503 01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:49,040 Speaker 1: ask I was Sam, if he's a big Marv Albert 1504 01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:50,600 Speaker 1: fan or not? In a minute, I was Sam. Just 1505 01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 1: hang tight. So somebody texted into the show that you know, 1506 01:22:55,520 --> 01:22:58,479 Speaker 1: there are some big games on the NBA slate today. 1507 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:03,040 Speaker 1: The Lakers play the Pacers in one hour and as 1508 01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 1: Isaac noted, Lebron is back, Dennis Shrewder's back, Anthony Davis 1509 01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:11,640 Speaker 1: is back, the Lakers are at full strength. The game 1510 01:23:11,760 --> 01:23:15,160 Speaker 1: is not on TV anywhere. The New York Knicks, the 1511 01:23:15,360 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 1: playoff bound New York Knicks, who have been a great 1512 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:22,639 Speaker 1: story for the league. Fun fact largest basketball audience since 1513 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:30,679 Speaker 1: February was Nicks Clippers. I think last Sunday, Okay, Knicks 1514 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 1: are a big deal. LaMelo balls playing the Knicks in MSG. 1515 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:38,599 Speaker 1: You think LaMelo is gonna go bananas? Huh. We've seen 1516 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:42,960 Speaker 1: Curry go absolutely postal in MSG. Everybody loves playing their 1517 01:23:43,120 --> 01:23:46,320 Speaker 1: Zion play there and freaked out. Now LaMelo is gonna 1518 01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:51,920 Speaker 1: play there. That game also not on television. And the 1519 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:58,000 Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets with the Big three, Steve Nash said, barring 1520 01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:03,599 Speaker 1: something unforeseen, Harden, Kyrie and KD will play now they're 1521 01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 1: playing the Chicago Bulls. There ten point favorites against the Bulls. 1522 01:24:06,760 --> 01:24:09,240 Speaker 1: That game also at one o'clock Eastern. So we have 1523 01:24:09,439 --> 01:24:14,200 Speaker 1: three huge NBA games, I'm sorry, three NBA games with 1524 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:20,840 Speaker 1: huge stars returning or emerging playing at one o'clock. None 1525 01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,240 Speaker 1: of them are on national TV. And the person who 1526 01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:26,720 Speaker 1: texted in said, but there is a w NBA game 1527 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:30,600 Speaker 1: on ABC at one pm. Now I know this is 1528 01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,600 Speaker 1: the w n b A opening weekend, and they the 1529 01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 1: league is on a on a hot streak right now, 1530 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:40,040 Speaker 1: and this is not me sorry taking a shot at 1531 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,040 Speaker 1: the w n b A. I do have the cool 1532 01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:46,080 Speaker 1: w NBA orange hoodie order one for me and my daughter. 1533 01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 1: My daughter is a basketball player second grade. I coach 1534 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:53,679 Speaker 1: her team. I just this week talked to a dad 1535 01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:56,000 Speaker 1: about getting some of the girls. We do like a 1536 01:24:56,640 --> 01:24:58,920 Speaker 1: and and I've talked about this openly, like we have 1537 01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:02,719 Speaker 1: a basketball court, um and we do full court basketball 1538 01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:04,920 Speaker 1: for my son and my daughter. And we've been doing 1539 01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,640 Speaker 1: it for like six months, um and we have like 1540 01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:11,639 Speaker 1: anywhere from like eight to twelve to fourteen girls show 1541 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:13,400 Speaker 1: up to play basketball. We do some drills and then 1542 01:25:13,400 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 1: do a scrimmage. I am all in on basketball. My 1543 01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 1: daughter and some of her friends were probably gonna go 1544 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:20,760 Speaker 1: to a double A w NBA game out here in 1545 01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:23,200 Speaker 1: l A. I'm not bashing the w n B A. 1546 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:26,960 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it is a curious business decision to 1547 01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:30,160 Speaker 1: put them at one o'clock on ABC when you've got 1548 01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:35,320 Speaker 1: Lakers and the Stars, Nick's versus LaMelo, and then Brooklyn's 1549 01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:37,880 Speaker 1: Big Three all playing at one o'clock, and those games 1550 01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 1: are nowhere to be found. I don't know what's on ESPN. 1551 01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:44,519 Speaker 1: Maybe Iowa samur Ryan can find out, but it looks 1552 01:25:44,560 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: like Clemson Verse Duke softball is currently on ESPN. Just 1553 01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:53,880 Speaker 1: a curious business decision. I mean again, I don't know 1554 01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,559 Speaker 1: how difficult it is to pivot on the fly and say, oh, 1555 01:25:57,040 --> 01:25:59,880 Speaker 1: we need to make a change, Like can they do that? 1556 01:26:00,040 --> 01:26:05,400 Speaker 1: Are their contractual obligations? Um, but that's a little disappointing 1557 01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,519 Speaker 1: if you're an NBA fan. This is a potentially big, 1558 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:10,760 Speaker 1: big Saturday for the league. All Right, we'll do some 1559 01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:12,560 Speaker 1: more in the NBA playoffs a little later. I do 1560 01:26:12,800 --> 01:26:18,799 Speaker 1: really like this Tim Tebow topic, and iowa Sam hasn't 1561 01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 1: chimed in yet. I haven't heard Ryan's take, and I 1562 01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:23,840 Speaker 1: don't listen. You guys have known. We've had a lot 1563 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:27,960 Speaker 1: of different voices on this show. There was even one guy, Uh, 1564 01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:31,160 Speaker 1: I forget who it was who was upset with me 1565 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 1: talking about Tiger Woods and golf. I would say, do 1566 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 1: you remember who that was? Remember the show he was 1567 01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 1: in for Isaac one day talking? Was it Ralph? Yeah? 1568 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:42,679 Speaker 1: He he did not like what I was saying about 1569 01:26:42,680 --> 01:26:45,840 Speaker 1: Tiger and I like, yeah, And I had some friends 1570 01:26:45,960 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 1: heard it and we're like, oh, that was a little testy, 1571 01:26:48,439 --> 01:26:51,280 Speaker 1: and I'm like, that's good. I don't just because I'm 1572 01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:53,439 Speaker 1: the host, that doesn't mean I'm the only one who 1573 01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:57,040 Speaker 1: knows sports, guys, everybody here knows sports. I like to 1574 01:26:57,080 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 1: be challenged. Let's have a discussion. It's possible that I'm wrong. 1575 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:04,960 Speaker 1: Not often, sometimes I get things wrong. But I'm all 1576 01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:07,799 Speaker 1: in on this Tebow thing. I am championing and waving 1577 01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:10,760 Speaker 1: the towel for Jacksonville to bring in Tebow to be 1578 01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:15,120 Speaker 1: the third string tight end. This idea that he's stealing 1579 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 1: a job from someone who should get the third string 1580 01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:22,000 Speaker 1: job and can play tight end because Tebow has never 1581 01:27:22,040 --> 01:27:25,679 Speaker 1: caught a pass in college or pros. Come on, get real, 1582 01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:31,080 Speaker 1: get a clue. There is such thing as building a 1583 01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:33,840 Speaker 1: culture and having winners in the program. Tim Tebow is 1584 01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:36,120 Speaker 1: a winner at life. And I heard I can hear 1585 01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:39,280 Speaker 1: the eyes rolling. Oh give me a break. This Tebow love. 1586 01:27:40,600 --> 01:27:44,200 Speaker 1: I mean everything Team Tebow does, from his foundations um 1587 01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:50,120 Speaker 1: to being a quarterback at college, to being a role model, 1588 01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:54,120 Speaker 1: a spokesman like he's an all around good guy. I'm very, 1589 01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:58,320 Speaker 1: very excited about it. So mine and I am just curious. 1590 01:27:58,360 --> 01:28:00,840 Speaker 1: I would say, I'm you're a huge college football guy. 1591 01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:05,160 Speaker 1: I know you were are aware of Tebow's winningness in 1592 01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:08,840 Speaker 1: the college level. He was unstoppable. He's just a legendary player. 1593 01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure some of these NBA young NFL young guys 1594 01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:16,080 Speaker 1: who were years old are coming up and they remember 1595 01:28:16,160 --> 01:28:19,760 Speaker 1: Tebow what he did for Florida in that program. Are 1596 01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 1: you upset that he's getting a looksi from the Jags? 1597 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:25,880 Speaker 1: Here's my take. So at first I looked at it 1598 01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:30,040 Speaker 1: like this, that the Jaguars we're playing a game of 1599 01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:32,519 Speaker 1: hop scotch. But they were back at the starting line 1600 01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:34,800 Speaker 1: because the first the first step they took was a 1601 01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:37,160 Speaker 1: step forward, and that was the hiring of a Remyer. 1602 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:39,400 Speaker 1: Then they took a step back when they tried to 1603 01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:41,960 Speaker 1: when urban Meyer tried to hire Chris Doyle, strength right, 1604 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:45,360 Speaker 1: took another step forward, um when they got Trevor Lawrence, 1605 01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 1: and then took a step back with the Tebow bonanza. 1606 01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:51,720 Speaker 1: But now, my how is it a step back? Well 1607 01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:54,519 Speaker 1: because because of like the outrage of taking a roster spot, 1608 01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:57,520 Speaker 1: and you know, we've had some personalities talk about privilege, 1609 01:28:57,600 --> 01:29:04,200 Speaker 1: and you know Tim Tebow is so is this uh no, 1610 01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:06,519 Speaker 1: is it bowing right now? No? If he has a spot, 1611 01:29:06,560 --> 01:29:08,600 Speaker 1: then it's I would say it's not if he if 1612 01:29:08,640 --> 01:29:11,320 Speaker 1: he earns now I changed my tune. I think if 1613 01:29:11,360 --> 01:29:13,639 Speaker 1: he can if he can help the team in any way, 1614 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,840 Speaker 1: if he can go in there and he's on, he's 1615 01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,759 Speaker 1: in fifteen plays in a game, and he it's totally 1616 01:29:19,880 --> 01:29:22,599 Speaker 1: specialized to get him the ball and get first downs. 1617 01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:24,840 Speaker 1: And I don't see it as a bad thing because 1618 01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:26,640 Speaker 1: the third string tight end is going to have a 1619 01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:30,040 Speaker 1: minimal impact at best. Anyway, at most you'll have two 1620 01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,280 Speaker 1: tight ends, like you know on the field, you know, 1621 01:29:32,520 --> 01:29:34,640 Speaker 1: at one story and the second string guys, you know, 1622 01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:36,800 Speaker 1: has half the amount of catches as the first string guy. 1623 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:39,120 Speaker 1: I think that if you can get Tim Tebow on 1624 01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:41,559 Speaker 1: the field and he's productive, then I think Urban Mile 1625 01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:44,799 Speaker 1: Urban Myra will come out of this looking good and smiling. 1626 01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:48,439 Speaker 1: So I mean, again, that's very plausible. I think fifteen 1627 01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:50,960 Speaker 1: plays on the field is a major stretch for a 1628 01:29:51,040 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 1: third string tight end. Doesn't mean he's gonna catch a 1629 01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:55,080 Speaker 1: pass every play. I'm saying that maybe they get him 1630 01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:57,519 Speaker 1: involved because what what are what is Jackson gonna run 1631 01:29:57,800 --> 01:29:59,800 Speaker 1: maybe more a little more up tempo and they get 1632 01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:02,000 Speaker 1: in seventy five plays a game. I would agree that 1633 01:30:02,040 --> 01:30:04,160 Speaker 1: he's doing fifteen plays a game and maybe he gets 1634 01:30:04,680 --> 01:30:08,479 Speaker 1: four catches for I don't know, forty eight yards or something. Really, 1635 01:30:08,840 --> 01:30:12,840 Speaker 1: that's it just a little. I mean, I don't I 1636 01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 1: wouldn't be shocked if you played, you know, eight games 1637 01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 1: and had one catch. Um, I think to that point 1638 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 1: and people would look back at it. But how many 1639 01:30:20,400 --> 01:30:23,240 Speaker 1: third string tight ends are catching three or four passes? 1640 01:30:23,600 --> 01:30:25,600 Speaker 1: I don't even know if some NFL teams always have 1641 01:30:25,680 --> 01:30:28,000 Speaker 1: a third tighten. Yeah, it's funny. I had on straight 1642 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:31,360 Speaker 1: Fire this week of former Jags tight end George rice Stir, 1643 01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:34,960 Speaker 1: who does stuff here at Fox Sports Radio. Intelligent guy. 1644 01:30:35,240 --> 01:30:39,400 Speaker 1: We disagreed vehemently on Tebow, and he was of the 1645 01:30:39,479 --> 01:30:42,920 Speaker 1: belief that, like you, this is a step back, Urban Meyer, 1646 01:30:43,000 --> 01:30:46,000 Speaker 1: this is strike two, he called it. And you know, 1647 01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:50,320 Speaker 1: I saw that, and I'm like, it's It's also generating 1648 01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:53,519 Speaker 1: a ton of publicity for Jacksonville, which has been just 1649 01:30:53,880 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 1: a as I think Jonas Knox called it. He called 1650 01:30:57,040 --> 01:31:00,519 Speaker 1: Jacksonville flyover state as a franchise, and I to agree. 1651 01:31:00,600 --> 01:31:02,760 Speaker 1: And this is generating a lot of buzz, good and bad. 1652 01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,280 Speaker 1: But I think Jaguar fans are really excited. I think 1653 01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 1: people residents of Florida, of the state are very excited. 1654 01:31:08,439 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 1: And so I think, honestly, after all this and he 1655 01:31:11,439 --> 01:31:13,479 Speaker 1: gets on the field, it's going to be an overall 1656 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:16,080 Speaker 1: positive just to get some buzz going for the Jaguars. Yeah, 1657 01:31:16,560 --> 01:31:19,439 Speaker 1: buzz is certainly a good thing. I mean, do they 1658 01:31:19,560 --> 01:31:22,240 Speaker 1: need buzz given they just got Trevor Lawrence. Here's what 1659 01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:27,720 Speaker 1: I'm interested at. I always say when the Jags have 1660 01:31:27,880 --> 01:31:30,439 Speaker 1: their roster and Tebows on it, and every other team 1661 01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:35,360 Speaker 1: releases their roster, some websites will crunch average age. Okay, 1662 01:31:36,080 --> 01:31:37,960 Speaker 1: my guess is the Jags will have one of the 1663 01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:40,240 Speaker 1: youngest rosters in the league. They have. I mean, they're 1664 01:31:40,439 --> 01:31:43,320 Speaker 1: they're purging talent, they have a new coach, a new 1665 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,000 Speaker 1: GM there. It's like a rebuild. You're starting from scratch, 1666 01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:49,600 Speaker 1: you're building the foundation. I like Tim Tebow as a 1667 01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 1: foundational piece, not necessarily on the field, but in the 1668 01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:57,400 Speaker 1: locker room. You need professionals. Remember, one of the big 1669 01:31:57,520 --> 01:32:01,160 Speaker 1: reasons Nick Saban screwed up with the Miami Dolphins, this 1670 01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:04,160 Speaker 1: has been well chronicled, is because he is a control freak. 1671 01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:06,559 Speaker 1: Like a lot of college coaches, they know where all 1672 01:32:06,600 --> 01:32:10,040 Speaker 1: their students, student athletes. They know where all the football 1673 01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:12,880 Speaker 1: players are every day of the week. Are they in class, 1674 01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:14,880 Speaker 1: are they in the gym? Are they in study hall 1675 01:32:15,360 --> 01:32:18,400 Speaker 1: like they know everything. Then next Saban gets to the 1676 01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:21,200 Speaker 1: NFL and the players show up at the facility and 1677 01:32:21,280 --> 01:32:23,800 Speaker 1: they leave the facility and you don't know where anybody is. 1678 01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:26,799 Speaker 1: You don't know who's out at the bar, or who's 1679 01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:30,000 Speaker 1: at the beach club, or what they're doing. You just 1680 01:32:30,120 --> 01:32:33,000 Speaker 1: don't that. That's the pros. You're a professional athlete. You 1681 01:32:33,080 --> 01:32:35,519 Speaker 1: gotta act the part the coach. He ain't the highest 1682 01:32:35,560 --> 01:32:38,880 Speaker 1: plaid guy on the team, not even close to it, 1683 01:32:39,760 --> 01:32:44,360 Speaker 1: most of these coaches. So you know how Urban me 1684 01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,040 Speaker 1: are going to handle that. And my guess is, and 1685 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:49,120 Speaker 1: I don't think he's bringing Tim Tebow and as like 1686 01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:52,040 Speaker 1: a watchdog, but he's gonna want to know that there 1687 01:32:52,160 --> 01:32:56,320 Speaker 1: are some veteran professionals on that team who are telling 1688 01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 1: the young guys, hey man, let's hang late for the 1689 01:32:59,280 --> 01:33:04,120 Speaker 1: jugs machine Laviska tion Alt, young promising receiver out of Colorado. 1690 01:33:04,680 --> 01:33:08,759 Speaker 1: UM they have, they have, they're young running back Robinson, 1691 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:10,600 Speaker 1: hey man, you had a good year. Let's build on that. 1692 01:33:10,720 --> 01:33:13,639 Speaker 1: Let's not rest on our laurels. I can s see 1693 01:33:13,680 --> 01:33:17,679 Speaker 1: Tim Tebow being like a galvanizing force as a veteran, 1694 01:33:17,840 --> 01:33:20,360 Speaker 1: as a winner, And I know This is very if 1695 01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:23,320 Speaker 1: people accept him, if he's accepted, and I think he 1696 01:33:23,360 --> 01:33:27,200 Speaker 1: will because he's very positive. Also, the spiritual connection perhaps 1697 01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:29,920 Speaker 1: between Trevor Lawrence and Tim Tebow, you know, they're both 1698 01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:33,439 Speaker 1: guys of of of a lot of faith. I considered 1699 01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:35,720 Speaker 1: that that could be something that helps the team. But 1700 01:33:35,800 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 1: they do have to accept him, and then what do 1701 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:39,439 Speaker 1: you mean they have to accept it. They have to 1702 01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:41,840 Speaker 1: look at him as like, hey, this guy is actually 1703 01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 1: a part of team, is not just some gimmick or 1704 01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:45,880 Speaker 1: some novelty, like he actually is going to help us, 1705 01:33:45,920 --> 01:33:50,120 Speaker 1: whether it's keeping morale high, but actually product producing on 1706 01:33:50,160 --> 01:33:52,400 Speaker 1: the field is probably the most important part. Yeah. I mean, 1707 01:33:54,040 --> 01:33:55,760 Speaker 1: my guess is Tim Tebow is not going to go 1708 01:33:55,880 --> 01:33:57,639 Speaker 1: into the locker room and be like, all right, everybody, 1709 01:33:57,760 --> 01:34:02,400 Speaker 1: come on in here, let's talk. Let's do as well. Right, 1710 01:34:02,640 --> 01:34:05,120 Speaker 1: he's a third string tight He also he's thirty three, 1711 01:34:05,160 --> 01:34:06,920 Speaker 1: but he hasn't been playing football that whole time. So 1712 01:34:06,960 --> 01:34:08,840 Speaker 1: when people say it was he's old and washed up, 1713 01:34:09,280 --> 01:34:11,840 Speaker 1: his body has not been taking hits all the time 1714 01:34:11,920 --> 01:34:14,639 Speaker 1: for the last twelve years. Um, you know, he yes, 1715 01:34:14,720 --> 01:34:16,920 Speaker 1: he might be attached slower and as you age, you 1716 01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:19,439 Speaker 1: slow down and you break a little could go both ways, 1717 01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:23,240 Speaker 1: though he's fresher he has so Yeah, if you've been 1718 01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:26,519 Speaker 1: playing football for the last twelve years, then you want 1719 01:34:26,520 --> 01:34:29,200 Speaker 1: to bring him. I mean, and like Larry Fitzgerald a 1720 01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:32,240 Speaker 1: little older than Tebow, Hall of Fame superstar, like he 1721 01:34:32,439 --> 01:34:35,720 Speaker 1: just looks slower after taking a pounding for fifteen years. 1722 01:34:36,080 --> 01:34:40,840 Speaker 1: But this this part about, like, let's say you remove 1723 01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:43,400 Speaker 1: Tebow from the equation and in his place you have 1724 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:46,800 Speaker 1: Joe Schmo, the third string tight end who played at 1725 01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:52,360 Speaker 1: Grambling State or whatever university. No fanfare, nobody's talking about him. 1726 01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:55,280 Speaker 1: It's not an issue. He's just going in and trying 1727 01:34:55,320 --> 01:34:58,200 Speaker 1: to make the team and be on the active roster 1728 01:34:58,320 --> 01:35:03,840 Speaker 1: every week. Enter Tebow, Like, just because he's Tebow, there's 1729 01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:05,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a glow around him if people are gonna 1730 01:35:05,800 --> 01:35:07,320 Speaker 1: be focusing on him and talking about him, and the 1731 01:35:07,400 --> 01:35:09,800 Speaker 1: media is gonna want to do stories. I think you're right. 1732 01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:13,760 Speaker 1: If Tebow knows his role, which I expect him to write, Yeah, 1733 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:16,800 Speaker 1: he's he's a humble enough guys, He's not like, he's 1734 01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:18,600 Speaker 1: not a guy that's coming and say look at me 1735 01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:20,800 Speaker 1: and you know, gather around me. Yeah. I don't think 1736 01:35:20,840 --> 01:35:23,200 Speaker 1: he's out there trying to get advertisements. He's gonna be 1737 01:35:23,240 --> 01:35:26,280 Speaker 1: like a spiritual advisor and kind of a yeah, he's 1738 01:35:26,280 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 1: gonna be a different presence in now. So that's why 1739 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:31,240 Speaker 1: when you say, like, you know, if the players accept him, 1740 01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:34,960 Speaker 1: I I don't think there's gonna be any question about that. 1741 01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:38,760 Speaker 1: It's hard to hate a super nice person, right, It's 1742 01:35:38,800 --> 01:35:41,920 Speaker 1: hard if someone's killing you with kindness. It's really hard 1743 01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:44,880 Speaker 1: to just keep you know, crushing their name and and 1744 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 1: and there and they're them as a person, because overall, 1745 01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:53,200 Speaker 1: kindness usually wins out, you know, grace wins out. Um. 1746 01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:58,040 Speaker 1: I would agree with that. Um. I guess the only 1747 01:35:58,160 --> 01:36:01,880 Speaker 1: other angle I have is like this, he's stealing a 1748 01:36:02,040 --> 01:36:05,639 Speaker 1: spot from somebody. Okay, if we're to assume every team 1749 01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:08,599 Speaker 1: carries three tight ends and there are thirty two teams 1750 01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:13,160 Speaker 1: in the league, that's what thirty two times three my 1751 01:36:13,600 --> 01:36:18,400 Speaker 1: basic math nine six tight ends in the NFL. I'm 1752 01:36:18,439 --> 01:36:22,720 Speaker 1: almost certain that as a pure athlete, Tim Tebow is 1753 01:36:22,960 --> 01:36:26,160 Speaker 1: probably one of the best tight ends available, even though 1754 01:36:26,200 --> 01:36:28,560 Speaker 1: he's never played the position. He is that he's a 1755 01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:32,760 Speaker 1: smart player and he's an athlete. Like Darren Waller was 1756 01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:34,519 Speaker 1: a sixth round pick and is now one of the 1757 01:36:34,600 --> 01:36:37,439 Speaker 1: six six best tight ends in the league. Like, if 1758 01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:43,519 Speaker 1: you can run, chew gum, understand routes, break tackles, block like, 1759 01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:46,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna be You're gonna be fine. I think Tebow 1760 01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:49,040 Speaker 1: is gonna be fine. Guys, if he doesn't produce anything 1761 01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:50,240 Speaker 1: at all of them, we'll look back at it as 1762 01:36:50,280 --> 01:36:53,360 Speaker 1: a waist. They are precious roster spots. They are. I mean, 1763 01:36:53,920 --> 01:36:56,200 Speaker 1: you can't just give it away to the backup hunter 1764 01:36:56,280 --> 01:36:59,320 Speaker 1: because he can throw a trick play. You know, you 1765 01:36:59,400 --> 01:37:01,120 Speaker 1: have to have to get something out of him, so 1766 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:04,639 Speaker 1: we'll see that's great. Will they tase him hill Tim Tebow, 1767 01:37:04,640 --> 01:37:06,320 Speaker 1: I don't think he can be that. I think that 1768 01:37:06,360 --> 01:37:09,080 Speaker 1: they'll make him gimmicky package guy. I think they'll get 1769 01:37:09,120 --> 01:37:10,519 Speaker 1: some stuff going, or they'll have him come in and 1770 01:37:10,600 --> 01:37:12,559 Speaker 1: run the ball. Or just because you have to respect, 1771 01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:15,360 Speaker 1: if Tebow an h back a tight end, he could 1772 01:37:15,360 --> 01:37:17,320 Speaker 1: come and take a direct snap and or you know, 1773 01:37:17,760 --> 01:37:20,560 Speaker 1: he could be like a wildcat snap and run the 1774 01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:22,519 Speaker 1: ball for you. I mean, I don't know how much 1775 01:37:22,560 --> 01:37:25,439 Speaker 1: you need that with Trevor Lawrence. True, but a little bigger, 1776 01:37:25,479 --> 01:37:29,880 Speaker 1: little maybe a trick play on a fake punt. Uh, 1777 01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:32,680 Speaker 1: He's got an arm you have him as the blocker. Um, 1778 01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:34,800 Speaker 1: and you got you got some fake pun action, like 1779 01:37:34,880 --> 01:37:37,519 Speaker 1: I think there's some there's some wins there coming up 1780 01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:39,280 Speaker 1: next year. And I'm sure I'm not gonna go to 1781 01:37:39,320 --> 01:37:41,960 Speaker 1: Twitter immediately because I know people are gonna be ticked. Um. 1782 01:37:42,400 --> 01:37:44,000 Speaker 1: But coming up next we'll do we'll do a little 1783 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:47,960 Speaker 1: more NBA playoffs and the schedule release. Um, I'm bullish 1784 01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,040 Speaker 1: on Jacksonville has nothing to do with Tebow. I just 1785 01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:53,800 Speaker 1: look at the schedule, guys. There's a legit chance Jacksonville 1786 01:37:54,439 --> 01:37:57,800 Speaker 1: could start five and three, six and two.

I'll watch like an hour of 1805 01:38:55,280 --> 01:38:56,720 Speaker 1: it and then I'm like, I gotta read or go 1806 01:38:56,800 --> 01:38:58,240 Speaker 1: to bed, and then I'll watch the rest of the 1807 01:38:58,280 --> 01:38:59,760 Speaker 1: next day. Do you guys do that or not? Really? 1808 01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:05,479 Speaker 1: No kids, no kids, not married, So yeah, um, I 1809 01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:07,679 Speaker 1: broke it up in two days.

And then 1816 01:39:23,720 --> 01:39:25,479 Speaker 1: how expensive do you think it would be to get 1817 01:39:25,560 --> 01:39:30,120 Speaker 1: generators undergrownd in case this kind of thing happened? And 1818 01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:34,559 Speaker 1: of course, you know Um, I'm not gonna spoil the movie, 1819 01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 1: but you could go read about don't read the full 1820 01:39:37,160 --> 01:39:40,240 Speaker 1: Wikipedia by the way, Um, not to go too off topic.

Like I'm getting texts a lot and I 1842 01:40:52,160 --> 01:40:54,040 Speaker 1: don't want to be checking my phone during the movie. 1843 01:40:54,240 --> 01:40:56,080 Speaker 1: Now you're at home, you just pause it. It's like, oh, 1844 01:40:56,160 --> 01:40:58,360 Speaker 1: it's just pause it, go the bathroom, get a snack, 1845 01:40:58,520 --> 01:41:01,800 Speaker 1: order some doordask whatever it is.

Have you guys seen 1849 01:41:12,920 --> 01:41:18,599 Speaker 1: that I have actually enjoyed right through it. Yeah. Yeah, 1850 01:41:18,600 --> 01:41:24,080 Speaker 1: it's a lot of adult themes. Don't watch it around 1851 01:41:24,120 --> 01:41:27,760 Speaker 1: the kids. Um, but yeah, highly recommend Fleabag. We got 1852 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,320 Speaker 1: Rick Buker coming up in a few minutes here on 1853 01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:32,960 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. Should be good. Um, not to go 1854 01:41:33,160 --> 01:41:36,639 Speaker 1: all over the place. But why the heck not. I'm 1855 01:41:36,680 --> 01:41:39,240 Speaker 1: reading about the mask the new mask policy. We had 1856 01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:41,640 Speaker 1: our roshmore Kazi on saying Vegas guests don't have to 1857 01:41:41,680 --> 01:41:45,240 Speaker 1: wear masks. It's just the messaging around masks has been 1858 01:41:45,400 --> 01:41:50,559 Speaker 1: so bad. Okay, I'm reading this large retailers. So first 1859 01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:53,080 Speaker 1: of all, the CDC says fully vaccinated people don't need 1860 01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:56,719 Speaker 1: to wear masks in most indoor and outdoor settings. Great, 1861 01:41:56,800 --> 01:42:00,439 Speaker 1: got it, awesome? How do you know who's fully back senated? 1862 01:42:01,400 --> 01:42:03,720 Speaker 1: Are they checking for the vaccination when you enter the 1863 01:42:03,760 --> 01:42:07,920 Speaker 1: grocery store or costco? And no, we don't know. So 1864 01:42:08,200 --> 01:42:12,439 Speaker 1: then the next sentences large retailers, targets, targets, Starbucks, Macy's 1865 01:42:13,080 --> 01:42:17,600 Speaker 1: haven't yet changed their instore mask requirements, but some companies have. 1866 01:42:18,320 --> 01:42:20,000 Speaker 1: This is so all over the place. This is going 1867 01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:23,200 Speaker 1: to create confusion arguments. I'm sure we're gonna see some 1868 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:25,840 Speaker 1: videos about people not when we wear a mask in stores. 1869 01:42:27,479 --> 01:42:30,840 Speaker 1: I just wish it were And there's no easy solution here. 1870 01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:36,800 Speaker 1: But like recently, I walked into a store I forgot 1871 01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 1: the mask and they said, he do you have your mask? 1872 01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:41,960 Speaker 1: I was like, my bad, went to the car, got it, 1873 01:42:42,040 --> 01:42:45,040 Speaker 1: No problem. I don't mind doing that. But because you 1874 01:42:45,120 --> 01:42:47,519 Speaker 1: don't have to wear a mask outside, you don't have 1875 01:42:47,560 --> 01:42:50,000 Speaker 1: to wear a mask when you're outdoors or some restaurants. 1876 01:42:50,000 --> 01:42:52,280 Speaker 1: I had friends who ate indoors at a restaurant. We 1877 01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:55,880 Speaker 1: ate indoors at a restaurant. Recently, it's just all over 1878 01:42:55,920 --> 01:42:59,439 Speaker 1: the place, and I don't want I don't know what 1879 01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:03,559 Speaker 1: the solution. What's the solution, Ryan, what like maybe having 1880 01:43:03,640 --> 01:43:07,479 Speaker 1: it just just one day specifically where you say, all right, 1881 01:43:07,520 --> 01:43:11,360 Speaker 1: now it's all done everywhere, and just continue everything until 1882 01:43:11,439 --> 01:43:13,200 Speaker 1: that exact date. I don't I thought you were gonna 1883 01:43:13,240 --> 01:43:14,960 Speaker 1: say one day a week where you have to wear 1884 01:43:15,000 --> 01:43:18,720 Speaker 1: a mask. I mean again, I guess the problem is 1885 01:43:19,560 --> 01:43:21,720 Speaker 1: now there's some people who are like anti vax and 1886 01:43:21,840 --> 01:43:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm not putting them on blast year. But my wife 1887 01:43:23,880 --> 01:43:27,840 Speaker 1: had a friend a couple of years younger, and she 1888 01:43:28,040 --> 01:43:30,639 Speaker 1: has friends a few years younger than her, So we're 1889 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:34,160 Speaker 1: talking about thirty year olds and they went out to 1890 01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:35,960 Speaker 1: a birthday dinner and of course it's like, oh, we're 1891 01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:38,200 Speaker 1: so excited. We don't have to you know, we're masks. 1892 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:41,479 Speaker 1: We got vaccinated, and then of the seven, three people 1893 01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:45,360 Speaker 1: had not been vaccinated. And my wife's like, wait a minute, 1894 01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:48,400 Speaker 1: I'm in a car windows up with unvaccinated. She like 1895 01:43:48,479 --> 01:43:51,080 Speaker 1: didn't she was. She was stunned, Like I thought, everybody 1896 01:43:51,160 --> 01:43:55,400 Speaker 1: just getting the vaccine and it was just like the 1897 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:59,960 Speaker 1: their reasonings not very solid or science based or doctor 1898 01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:02,680 Speaker 1: or base. Like I had COVID. It wasn't that bad 1899 01:44:02,720 --> 01:44:05,800 Speaker 1: I'm not going to get the vaccine, So it's all 1900 01:44:05,840 --> 01:44:08,560 Speaker 1: about you, not about anyone else. Okay, got it, and 1901 01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:11,320 Speaker 1: it's just I just I thought we were I thought 1902 01:44:11,360 --> 01:44:13,000 Speaker 1: we were near the finished line, and then some of 1903 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:17,360 Speaker 1: this stuff. I don't know. It's disappointing. If you're vaccinated, though, 1904 01:44:17,360 --> 01:44:20,240 Speaker 1: and you're around unvaccinated people, there's there's two way street 1905 01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:23,000 Speaker 1: worth of protection for you. I would agree. So my 1906 01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:26,400 Speaker 1: wife didn't freak out. I'm not freaking out. We just 1907 01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:30,040 Speaker 1: it would be easier if everybody just got got the vaccine. 1908 01:44:30,040 --> 01:44:32,320 Speaker 1: You know. I know that's not for everybody. I get it, 1909 01:44:32,400 --> 01:44:36,519 Speaker 1: you know, cultural reasons, um, other stuff. Whatever you do. 1910 01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:39,000 Speaker 1: Don't pull up I read on the internet. You do that. 1911 01:44:39,120 --> 01:44:42,400 Speaker 1: It's a check.

There are three pretty dang 1958 01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:39,160 Speaker 1: good NBA games at one o'clock Eastern, right, the Lakers 1959 01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:42,240 Speaker 1: with Lebron back, shrewder back, uh Nicks who are in 1960 01:47:42,360 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 1: the playoffs and a good story and they're facing LaMelo 1961 01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:47,720 Speaker 1: Ball and also the Brooklyn Nets Big Three You're gonna play. 1962 01:47:48,080 --> 01:47:50,439 Speaker 1: And somebody pointed out that none of those games are 1963 01:47:50,479 --> 01:47:53,320 Speaker 1: on t National TV. But there's a w NBA game 1964 01:47:53,400 --> 01:47:58,719 Speaker 1: on ABC. Very strange programming, is it not. I mean, yeah, 1965 01:47:59,040 --> 01:48:02,200 Speaker 1: I mean I know what's opening week, but yeah, I 1966 01:48:02,760 --> 01:48:05,880 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know how far in advance UH 1967 01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:09,160 Speaker 1: they can orchestrate these things. And I do know that 1968 01:48:09,280 --> 01:48:13,160 Speaker 1: there has been a concerted push UH to to market 1969 01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:16,160 Speaker 1: the w n b A obviously, and as a as 1970 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:21,120 Speaker 1: the son of a daughter who is graduating from high 1971 01:48:21,120 --> 01:48:23,360 Speaker 1: school and is gonna be playing basketball next year at 1972 01:48:23,439 --> 01:48:28,120 Speaker 1: the University of Portland.

I really don't have a problem with thank you. 1975 01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:39,760 Speaker 1: I really don't have a problem with with the UH, 1976 01:48:40,280 --> 01:48:42,439 Speaker 1: with the w n b A getting prime time Yeah, 1977 01:48:42,640 --> 01:48:45,719 Speaker 1: it's funny. You know, I remember talking to you at Fox. 1978 01:48:45,920 --> 01:48:47,760 Speaker 1: You know, I coach my daughter's young basketball team and 1979 01:48:47,800 --> 01:48:50,320 Speaker 1: we're pretty good, and you had told me that your 1980 01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:53,800 Speaker 1: daughter was really good. I didn't know she was scholarship worthy. Wow, 1981 01:48:54,720 --> 01:48:59,240 Speaker 1: that's awesome. Yeah, she's um, she is not. She's a 1982 01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:04,519 Speaker 1: with the call a preferred preferred walk on. So she's 1983 01:49:04,520 --> 01:49:06,920 Speaker 1: gonna be on the team and she's got I mean, 1984 01:49:07,320 --> 01:49:09,439 Speaker 1: as a result of the pandemic and a variety of things, 1985 01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:12,600 Speaker 1: she didn't get seen as much as uh as she 1986 01:49:12,760 --> 01:49:15,840 Speaker 1: normally would have. So she's hoping that this is going 1987 01:49:15,880 --> 01:49:18,519 Speaker 1: to turn into a scholarship down the line. But she 1988 01:49:18,560 --> 01:49:21,639 Speaker 1: also got an academic scholarship, So I'm very very proud 1989 01:49:21,680 --> 01:49:25,280 Speaker 1: and very happy. That's exciting. Of course, Steph Curry would 1990 01:49:25,320 --> 01:49:27,920 Speaker 1: not even I think he was getting maybe the preferred 1991 01:49:27,920 --> 01:49:30,000 Speaker 1: walk on treatment of Virginia Tech back in the day. 1992 01:49:30,160 --> 01:49:33,519 Speaker 1: But we don't need toash that all right, uh Rick, 1993 01:49:33,840 --> 01:49:36,200 Speaker 1: Let's let's get to the Lakers. They returned Lebron today, 1994 01:49:36,720 --> 01:49:40,599 Speaker 1: Dennis Shooters back from COVID protocols. Anthony Davis back, Um, 1995 01:49:41,439 --> 01:49:43,479 Speaker 1: are we going to see the Lakers destroy Indian? Then 1996 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:45,560 Speaker 1: everybody say Oh, that's right, the Lakers are winning the 1997 01:49:45,640 --> 01:49:49,639 Speaker 1: championship again. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't be surprised honestly 1998 01:49:49,880 --> 01:49:53,519 Speaker 1: if that was the case. Just and and keep in mind, 1999 01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:57,320 Speaker 1: you know, India's indianas in no great shape and it's 2000 01:49:57,360 --> 01:50:00,360 Speaker 1: going to be really easy with the hype of Lebron 2001 01:50:00,439 --> 01:50:02,880 Speaker 1: and Dennis being back, that that that that's going to happen. 2002 01:50:02,960 --> 01:50:05,880 Speaker 1: But that is you're you're exactly right, Like I just 2003 01:50:05,920 --> 01:50:10,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't take anything from are too much from the regular season, 2004 01:50:10,920 --> 01:50:14,840 Speaker 1: particularly right now, as a reflection of what is or 2005 01:50:14,920 --> 01:50:20,200 Speaker 1: isn't going to happen in in the postseason. The Pacers 2006 01:50:20,320 --> 01:50:24,400 Speaker 1: are what the fourteen fifteenth ranked defense in the league. 2007 01:50:24,439 --> 01:50:27,880 Speaker 1: They are a mediocre defense. They're a mediocre offense. Um. 2008 01:50:27,960 --> 01:50:30,880 Speaker 1: But in particular, that's the thing that I will be 2009 01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:35,360 Speaker 1: watching is to see what kind of impact that having 2010 01:50:35,439 --> 01:50:39,200 Speaker 1: Shrewder and uh and Lebron back is going to have 2011 01:50:39,400 --> 01:50:41,519 Speaker 1: on their offense, because that's the number one thing their 2012 01:50:41,600 --> 01:50:43,880 Speaker 1: defense I am not the least bit worried about, but 2013 01:50:44,600 --> 01:50:48,599 Speaker 1: the efficiency of their offense and what they're doing at 2014 01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:50,679 Speaker 1: the end of games when they need to get a bucket. 2015 01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:55,240 Speaker 1: That's where the Lakers are vulnerable right now, and we 2016 01:50:55,400 --> 01:50:57,559 Speaker 1: just need to see how quickly they can get there 2017 01:50:58,520 --> 01:51:00,800 Speaker 1: their chemistry and their synchronicity back when it comes to 2018 01:51:00,880 --> 01:51:06,080 Speaker 1: that nice usage of synchronicity, the Lakers sat a d 2019 01:51:06,560 --> 01:51:09,200 Speaker 1: um and they were able to hold off Houston, the 2020 01:51:09,240 --> 01:51:12,000 Speaker 1: worst team in the league. The Clippers sat Paul George 2021 01:51:12,040 --> 01:51:15,560 Speaker 1: and Kauai and they lost. Now there is some speculation, 2022 01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:18,600 Speaker 1: just social media nonsense, that the Clippers are avoiding the 2023 01:51:18,720 --> 01:51:22,240 Speaker 1: Lakers if possible. Your thoughts on the Clippers trying to 2024 01:51:22,360 --> 01:51:25,479 Speaker 1: dodge the Lakers, I just I don't For everything that 2025 01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:28,080 Speaker 1: I know about that team and the guys on that team, 2026 01:51:28,240 --> 01:51:31,719 Speaker 1: I would be very surprised if that is the case. 2027 01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:33,840 Speaker 1: The Clippers have to know that if they're going to win, 2028 01:51:35,080 --> 01:51:37,120 Speaker 1: or they're gonna come out of the West, that they're 2029 01:51:37,200 --> 01:51:39,920 Speaker 1: they're probably going to see the Lakers at some point, 2030 01:51:40,560 --> 01:51:43,240 Speaker 1: and I would think that the Clippers would want to 2031 01:51:43,320 --> 01:51:48,760 Speaker 1: see them sooner rather than later. And and look, they 2032 01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:51,280 Speaker 1: still believe that they're the best team in l A. 2033 01:51:51,560 --> 01:51:54,240 Speaker 1: They've never stopped believing that since last year. Whether you 2034 01:51:54,240 --> 01:51:55,880 Speaker 1: you know, whether you where do you agree with them 2035 01:51:55,960 --> 01:52:00,600 Speaker 1: or not? They're they're not you know, I that I 2036 01:52:00,720 --> 01:52:02,920 Speaker 1: just don't buy that. I don't buy that from where 2037 01:52:02,960 --> 01:52:05,560 Speaker 1: they stand, and it doesn't make sense. Like I know 2038 01:52:05,720 --> 01:52:08,439 Speaker 1: teams who think they're better and they go, yeah, but 2039 01:52:08,520 --> 01:52:10,880 Speaker 1: you know what, let let us get into a groove 2040 01:52:11,000 --> 01:52:14,200 Speaker 1: first and then see them or we'd rather see them here, 2041 01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:17,960 Speaker 1: or it's a yeah, it's a logistical thing from like 2042 01:52:18,200 --> 01:52:21,040 Speaker 1: let's get some playoff games under our belt. There's none 2043 01:52:21,080 --> 01:52:23,839 Speaker 1: of that that fits with what I know about the Clippers. 2044 01:52:24,479 --> 01:52:26,840 Speaker 1: Where are you on the surgeon Bacca situation? Like they've 2045 01:52:26,880 --> 01:52:29,160 Speaker 1: had an issue with rim protection all year, Baka has 2046 01:52:29,200 --> 01:52:32,639 Speaker 1: been hurt forever. Uh, they solved the point guard woes 2047 01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:35,840 Speaker 1: maybe with Rondo, although I do think it creates a 2048 01:52:36,240 --> 01:52:38,679 Speaker 1: who plays late in games because we know Reggie Jackson 2049 01:52:38,720 --> 01:52:41,320 Speaker 1: when he doesn't get minutes. Uh, he was unhappy at 2050 01:52:41,360 --> 01:52:45,200 Speaker 1: times in Detroit, unhappy and okay, see, um, where are 2051 01:52:45,240 --> 01:52:47,680 Speaker 1: you on the just the Clippers rotation? Big man in 2052 01:52:47,760 --> 01:52:50,479 Speaker 1: point guard? Yeah, I'm not at this point, I'm not worried. 2053 01:52:50,840 --> 01:52:52,639 Speaker 1: One of the things that I that makes me feel 2054 01:52:52,640 --> 01:52:54,360 Speaker 1: a little bit better about the Clippers in spite of 2055 01:52:54,400 --> 01:52:56,280 Speaker 1: everything that happened last year, is I believe that their 2056 01:52:56,320 --> 01:53:01,760 Speaker 1: chemistry is infinitely better this year than it was last year, 2057 01:53:01,800 --> 01:53:04,839 Speaker 1: and I think Reggie coming in late last year, struggled 2058 01:53:04,880 --> 01:53:07,680 Speaker 1: to find his role. I think he understands it now. 2059 01:53:07,960 --> 01:53:11,960 Speaker 1: I just across the board, I think that there's a 2060 01:53:12,080 --> 01:53:15,519 Speaker 1: better understanding and a common cause, which is basically to 2061 01:53:15,680 --> 01:53:19,600 Speaker 1: make up for the disappointment of last year. I do 2062 01:53:19,840 --> 01:53:23,920 Speaker 1: believe that Serge Ibaka is a vital piece to have um. 2063 01:53:24,280 --> 01:53:29,519 Speaker 1: You know, I think Zobach has had a really good year, 2064 01:53:30,439 --> 01:53:33,920 Speaker 1: but when they want to go to their best five, 2065 01:53:34,200 --> 01:53:37,320 Speaker 1: you need not just a rim protector, but someone who's 2066 01:53:37,320 --> 01:53:40,120 Speaker 1: going to be able to space the floor and pull 2067 01:53:40,240 --> 01:53:44,040 Speaker 1: bigs away from the rim in order to create room 2068 01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:48,280 Speaker 1: for Paul George and everybody else to operate in the paint. 2069 01:53:48,600 --> 01:53:51,200 Speaker 1: And zoo Bach obviously can't do that. That's the one 2070 01:53:51,320 --> 01:53:53,640 Speaker 1: thing in his game that he does not have, and 2071 01:53:53,720 --> 01:53:56,320 Speaker 1: Abaka allows you to have that. He can he can 2072 01:53:56,400 --> 01:53:58,920 Speaker 1: protect the rim, and he can drop the three on you, 2073 01:53:59,120 --> 01:54:02,320 Speaker 1: so that if they're gonna, if they're gonna vie for 2074 01:54:02,360 --> 01:54:04,840 Speaker 1: a championship, they have to have him in the midst 2075 01:54:05,240 --> 01:54:06,960 Speaker 1: One more team in the West real quick. A lot 2076 01:54:07,040 --> 01:54:09,439 Speaker 1: of people are lukewarm on the Suns for some reason. 2077 01:54:09,560 --> 01:54:12,320 Speaker 1: I like this team a lot. I know, Monty Williams 2078 01:54:12,360 --> 01:54:15,800 Speaker 1: has never won a playoff series and they have inexperience 2079 01:54:15,800 --> 01:54:18,160 Speaker 1: all over the place. But I like their wing defense 2080 01:54:18,240 --> 01:54:20,639 Speaker 1: with Crowder and Bridges more than they do the wing 2081 01:54:20,880 --> 01:54:23,799 Speaker 1: defense on Utah. UM. I don't know. Can the Suns 2082 01:54:24,000 --> 01:54:27,240 Speaker 1: get to the finals. Chris Paul kind of needs it badly. 2083 01:54:28,280 --> 01:54:31,560 Speaker 1: So so here's the thing. I agree with you on 2084 01:54:31,720 --> 01:54:34,080 Speaker 1: the wing defense, and I think that that is uh. 2085 01:54:34,640 --> 01:54:36,760 Speaker 1: The Utah Jazz is Achilles Heel and I and I. 2086 01:54:36,880 --> 01:54:39,720 Speaker 1: You know, as you look across the board, every single 2087 01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:44,560 Speaker 1: team in both conferences that you look at and say, uh, 2088 01:54:45,240 --> 01:54:48,600 Speaker 1: they're they're a title contender, they all have a flaw, 2089 01:54:48,840 --> 01:54:52,920 Speaker 1: an obvious flaw. Uh. And the Suns are better than 2090 01:54:53,000 --> 01:54:55,720 Speaker 1: the Jazz when it comes to the wing defense. I 2091 01:54:55,920 --> 01:55:00,360 Speaker 1: just in watching them, they still rely so much on 2092 01:55:00,480 --> 01:55:03,240 Speaker 1: Chris Paul and I. If I was going to believe 2093 01:55:03,280 --> 01:55:07,280 Speaker 1: in them as a postseason threat, I would have wanted 2094 01:55:07,320 --> 01:55:11,760 Speaker 1: to see Devin Booker evolve more than he has. He 2095 01:55:12,360 --> 01:55:14,680 Speaker 1: You know what he strikes me as it's it's almost 2096 01:55:14,800 --> 01:55:20,000 Speaker 1: like an early lebron offensively in terms of this when 2097 01:55:20,040 --> 01:55:22,320 Speaker 1: you close your eyes and you think of this is 2098 01:55:22,480 --> 01:55:26,080 Speaker 1: Devin Booker's sweet spot. This is where if he gets 2099 01:55:26,160 --> 01:55:31,320 Speaker 1: to it's over. What is that spot? He doesn't have one. 2100 01:55:31,840 --> 01:55:34,680 Speaker 1: He's so talented and can score from so many different 2101 01:55:34,720 --> 01:55:39,800 Speaker 1: places that he's never developed that go to spot. And 2102 01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:44,120 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, that can be vital for your go 2103 01:55:44,320 --> 01:55:46,520 Speaker 1: to guy. Now, when you think of when you think 2104 01:55:46,560 --> 01:55:49,280 Speaker 1: of Chris Paul and you think of his go to spot, 2105 01:55:49,400 --> 01:55:51,640 Speaker 1: what is it? That little mid range step back jumper 2106 01:55:52,080 --> 01:55:54,480 Speaker 1: that's all else fails, That's what he's going to go to. 2107 01:55:54,680 --> 01:55:59,280 Speaker 1: So if you believe that Chris Paul at six ft 2108 01:55:59,640 --> 01:56:04,240 Speaker 1: and with thirty six years old, uh is going to 2109 01:56:04,440 --> 01:56:07,280 Speaker 1: carry you to a championship with that step back jumper 2110 01:56:07,880 --> 01:56:11,680 Speaker 1: and then have at it. But I'm that's where my 2111 01:56:11,840 --> 01:56:15,240 Speaker 1: skepticism comes in because I think that Devin Booker has 2112 01:56:15,320 --> 01:56:17,960 Speaker 1: to be your go to guy in those situations and 2113 01:56:18,040 --> 01:56:20,880 Speaker 1: as you watch them get into need in in key 2114 01:56:21,040 --> 01:56:25,440 Speaker 1: spots like yeah, they'll they'll go to Devon, But Devon 2115 01:56:25,600 --> 01:56:30,000 Speaker 1: has not delivered consistent, consistently in those in those spots. 2116 01:56:30,080 --> 01:56:32,640 Speaker 1: And that's that's what I think that the Phoenix suns Achilles, 2117 01:56:32,680 --> 01:56:36,240 Speaker 1: he is great point FS one NBA insider Rick Buker 2118 01:56:36,320 --> 01:56:38,760 Speaker 1: You can follow him on Twitter at Rick Buker. Rick, 2119 01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:41,680 Speaker 1: thanks a lot, enjoy a big Saturday in basketball. You 2120 01:56:41,800 --> 01:56:44,440 Speaker 1: do the same, Jason, all right, thanks a lot. Good 2121 01:56:44,440 --> 01:56:47,240 Speaker 1: stuff from Rick Buker. It's a little depressing to think 2122 01:56:47,280 --> 01:56:50,720 Speaker 1: about the Devin Booker situation because I watched the end 2123 01:56:50,720 --> 01:56:53,440 Speaker 1: of that Portland game. He had a costly double dribble 2124 01:56:53,480 --> 01:56:56,920 Speaker 1: at mid court with like under ten seconds left, and 2125 01:56:57,040 --> 01:56:59,240 Speaker 1: then he couldn't get to his spot, and he got 2126 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:02,440 Speaker 1: bailed out by foul uh and he made the free throws, 2127 01:57:02,480 --> 01:57:05,520 Speaker 1: but like down the stretch. I guess yes, Rick, ricks 2128 01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:08,400 Speaker 1: onto something Phoenix has some issues. Uh. Coming up next 2129 01:57:08,480 --> 01:57:11,440 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio, we will wrap up what's been 2130 01:57:11,480 --> 01:57:15,320 Speaker 1: a really fun show back after this what a show, 2131 01:57:15,480 --> 01:57:20,720 Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, trying to get my hat off. As 2132 01:57:20,800 --> 01:57:24,240 Speaker 1: we chronicled, this one PM hour is a monster for 2133 01:57:24,320 --> 01:57:28,640 Speaker 1: the NBA. Three really good games coming up, just to 2134 01:57:28,760 --> 01:57:31,600 Speaker 1: see the stars together. It is kind of funny how 2135 01:57:32,320 --> 01:57:35,200 Speaker 1: they all magically are appearing at the end of the 2136 01:57:35,240 --> 01:57:37,160 Speaker 1: season just to get a couple of reps in together. 2137 01:57:37,840 --> 01:57:40,880 Speaker 1: It's been a fun show. Doge coin Millionaire, Sam, how 2138 01:57:41,000 --> 01:57:45,160 Speaker 1: much doge coin do you have? You can be honest 2139 01:57:45,680 --> 01:57:49,680 Speaker 1: zero right now, Ryan has zero? Ryan has some right 2140 01:57:50,440 --> 01:57:52,360 Speaker 1: I do, I do. And here's the thing I'm all 2141 01:57:52,480 --> 01:57:55,520 Speaker 1: for that diversify you do you guys remember the Wu 2142 01:57:55,640 --> 01:58:01,280 Speaker 1: Tang financial from Chappelle's show, diversify your bonds? You know? Yes, yes, 2143 01:58:02,440 --> 01:58:04,200 Speaker 1: I know, I know, I'm very very well aware. But 2144 01:58:04,320 --> 01:58:06,880 Speaker 1: that's classic. Yeah, that Chapelle show. Right. Did you just 2145 01:58:06,920 --> 01:58:12,000 Speaker 1: say that you gotta diversify like this guy putting every 2146 01:58:12,120 --> 01:58:16,000 Speaker 1: cent he owns and pulling off money from loans and 2147 01:58:16,040 --> 01:58:18,400 Speaker 1: putting it onto it that that is the heightest stupidity. 2148 01:58:18,480 --> 01:58:19,800 Speaker 1: And again I'm rooting for the guy. I hope it 2149 01:58:19,880 --> 01:58:21,640 Speaker 1: works out for Jason. I read a little bit of 2150 01:58:21,680 --> 01:58:24,320 Speaker 1: that article, and that guy invested a hundred and eighty 2151 01:58:24,400 --> 01:58:27,680 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Like you said, half of our listeners might 2152 01:58:27,720 --> 01:58:31,120 Speaker 1: be paper doge coin millionaires, paper millionaires, right, But I 2153 01:58:31,160 --> 01:58:33,480 Speaker 1: don't think that half of our listeners have invested a 2154 01:58:33,600 --> 01:58:37,760 Speaker 1: hundred eighty k into something like doge coin. So I 2155 01:58:37,800 --> 01:58:40,000 Speaker 1: think I told you guys were minority owners of an 2156 01:58:40,080 --> 01:58:42,960 Speaker 1: Australian basketball team in the NBL, the team the New 2157 01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:46,200 Speaker 1: Zealand Breakers. Sometimes, if you guys see my Instagram stuff, 2158 01:58:46,200 --> 01:58:49,360 Speaker 1: I'll be wearing breakers gear. So I had met this 2159 01:58:49,560 --> 01:58:54,480 Speaker 1: NBA agent and he worked for NBA owner. He ended 2160 01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:58,360 Speaker 1: up leaving NBA agency world and going work for an owner. Um, 2161 01:58:59,760 --> 01:59:03,600 Speaker 1: and like relationships matter again, it's not what you know, 2162 01:59:03,680 --> 01:59:05,960 Speaker 1: it's who you know. My chance of ever being an 2163 01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:08,680 Speaker 1: owner in any way, shape or form of a sports 2164 01:59:08,720 --> 01:59:12,600 Speaker 1: team long shot, No way. And then this guy said, hey, 2165 01:59:12,680 --> 01:59:15,000 Speaker 1: we're buying a basketball team and n b L. We've 2166 01:59:15,040 --> 01:59:16,920 Speaker 1: got some great ideas, some great plans. Do you want 2167 01:59:16,920 --> 01:59:21,200 Speaker 1: to get in? Well, heck yeah, question go fire away. 2168 01:59:21,840 --> 01:59:26,360 Speaker 1: Are you considering would you consider, um, getting passports for 2169 01:59:26,400 --> 01:59:29,200 Speaker 1: the entire family and flying everyone out to New Zealand 2170 01:59:29,320 --> 01:59:32,640 Speaker 1: because A, it's an amazing spot, like they filmed Lord 2171 01:59:32,640 --> 01:59:34,840 Speaker 1: of the Rings there. I mean they have like they 2172 01:59:34,920 --> 01:59:37,840 Speaker 1: have rainforests, they have all these different environments and stuff. 2173 01:59:38,080 --> 01:59:40,440 Speaker 1: Would you consider flying your family out to Australia or 2174 01:59:40,480 --> 01:59:43,320 Speaker 1: New Zealand right next to each other and maybe catching 2175 01:59:43,360 --> 01:59:45,680 Speaker 1: a game and taking a vacation. Oh of course that's 2176 01:59:45,720 --> 01:59:48,000 Speaker 1: a long plight. Oh yeah, yeah, you don't go there 2177 01:59:48,040 --> 01:59:49,760 Speaker 1: for a week. I think your kids are old enough 2178 01:59:49,800 --> 01:59:52,040 Speaker 1: to enjoy it. Well. The other best part is our 2179 01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:55,680 Speaker 1: good friends from where we live. They were from Australia, 2180 01:59:56,000 --> 01:59:58,320 Speaker 1: Sydney and they lived here for a few years and 2181 01:59:58,520 --> 02:00:00,800 Speaker 1: pandemic happens. They're like, we're gonna move back. So now 2182 02:00:00,840 --> 02:00:02,400 Speaker 1: they moved back and we still talk to them our 2183 02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:06,040 Speaker 1: good friends. I played tennis with this guy. Uh, the 2184 02:00:06,160 --> 02:00:08,480 Speaker 1: mom is so cool, the kids are our kids, ages like. 2185 02:00:08,560 --> 02:00:10,240 Speaker 1: It works out great. So now we have friends there 2186 02:00:10,520 --> 02:00:13,920 Speaker 1: and the team, and yeah, I would definitely do that. 2187 02:00:13,920 --> 02:00:17,600 Speaker 1: I've never been to Australia or New Zealand, and um, 2188 02:00:18,440 --> 02:00:20,320 Speaker 1: you know, this opportunity came up, and you know, I 2189 02:00:20,440 --> 02:00:22,360 Speaker 1: was like, well, how much are we gonna have to invest? 2190 02:00:22,440 --> 02:00:24,520 Speaker 1: And they told us what the valuation of the team 2191 02:00:24,680 --> 02:00:31,760 Speaker 1: was and if you wants this one that you know whatever, 2192 02:00:32,880 --> 02:00:36,800 Speaker 1: and we, you know, crunched our finances, said we don't 2193 02:00:36,800 --> 02:00:38,880 Speaker 1: want to go all in on a basketball team on 2194 02:00:38,920 --> 02:00:40,120 Speaker 1: the other side of the world, but we want to 2195 02:00:40,160 --> 02:00:43,120 Speaker 1: go in. So we invested a little bit. And we 2196 02:00:43,280 --> 02:00:46,560 Speaker 1: recently had another sports team investment. This one's not really 2197 02:00:46,600 --> 02:00:48,400 Speaker 1: public yet, so I'm not gonna talk fully about it. 2198 02:00:48,640 --> 02:00:51,000 Speaker 1: And again it was another situation. His team has been 2199 02:00:51,040 --> 02:00:54,360 Speaker 1: around a little longer, the team has more money, larger investment. 2200 02:00:54,840 --> 02:00:56,440 Speaker 1: This was a decision do we want to buy a 2201 02:00:56,560 --> 02:00:59,360 Speaker 1: house out here in l A. Or do we want 2202 02:00:59,400 --> 02:01:04,520 Speaker 1: to invest it in sports team. I'll eventually tell you 2203 02:01:04,640 --> 02:01:06,320 Speaker 1: what happended up happening, but I won't do that now 2204 02:01:06,360 --> 02:01:09,120 Speaker 1: because we're rinning out of time. Uh. But again, we 2205 02:01:09,520 --> 02:01:14,160 Speaker 1: would never ever ever invest everything you have in one thing. 2206 02:01:14,280 --> 02:01:17,600 Speaker 1: I think that's super risky. Now investing your my time 2207 02:01:17,720 --> 02:01:20,520 Speaker 1: and energy into one thing, Hell, yes, definitely do that. 2208 02:01:20,640 --> 02:01:23,000 Speaker 1: I highly recommend that you want to get into radio, 2209 02:01:23,960 --> 02:01:28,560 Speaker 1: go all in on.
