It's a fun story, but and it's 210 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: cool to know that the truth and the backstory. But 211 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: I don't think it matters to the fans or or 212 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 2: what his output is going to be or his legacy's 213 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 2: going to be with the Bears at all. Let me 214 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: ask you this. There's the twofold question. We'll answer and 215 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 2: move on.

Yeah, number one, 218 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 2: If you're a Bears fan, does this bother you even 219 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:58,359 Speaker 2: a little. 220 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: No, you're you're not marrying Campblin, Well, he's not your wife. 221 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 3: Why does it bother you. 222 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: He's on your team, he's going to make the best 223 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 2: and based on the history of your team and the 224 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: coaches he didn't want to play for are no longer there, 225 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 2: So you could almost argue, yeah, that's a big part 226 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 2: of it that you could almost argue that he's like, yeah, 227 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: I don't know if I could play with with this 228 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 2: coaching steff In fact, they were also parts of this 229 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 2: book previewed where he was watching film and they didn't 230 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 2: even tell him like what to watch and what to do, 231 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 2: and he felt very misguided by the way, if you 232 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: really want to play stat boy, I would say ninety 233 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 2: percent of people in sports don't play for the team 234 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: they really wanted to because they all had childhood affiliations 235 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 2: that they rooted for, so they were probably like, yeah, 236 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 2: I wish one day I could play for the Steelers. 237 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 3: That didn't happen. For everybody, you. 238 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: Know, that broke my heart. I was Sam Brie. When 239 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 2: I met my hero Joe Montana years ago. I was like, Joe, 240 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 2: do you know how much you meant to me? In fact, 241 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: I told Joe Montana that I wore his pajamas when 242 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: I was a kid. That was embarrassing, you know what 243 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: he said. I remember I was there. He goes, I 244 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 2: help you, still don't wear him. I love Joe Montana. 245 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: As a little boy, I had the starting lineup figure. 246 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: I had a poster on my wall until I graduated 247 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,319 Speaker 2: to my Cindy Crawford poster in my bedroom was Joe Montana. 248 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,599 Speaker 2: And when he told me, he's like, yeah, I was 249 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 2: always sort of a Steelers guy. I'm like what, he goes, Yeah, 250 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: I played for the Niners, but I was a Steelers fan. 251 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 3: Well that's what I mean. 252 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 2: You think the forty nine Ers were his first choice. No, 253 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 2: he was super pumped about it, made the best of it, 254 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 2: and he became a forty Niner. But it wasn't like 255 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: his first thought or dream, I doubt. So it's not 256 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 2: that really big of a story, even though it is. 257 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 2: Layer A was. Do Bears fans care?

I want to rehash this 437 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 2: a little bit. We talked about it because we have 438 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,199 Speaker 2: more time to think about it. Michael Jordan is going 439 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: to be part of the broadcast team in some capacity 440 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 2: when the NBA returns to NBC.

At this point, all these years later, where Michael Jordan. 446 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: Has kept almost almost like a mysterious persona, not on 447 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 2: social media, never seemed to be pulled into any media. 448 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 2: The Last Dance was orchestrated by him. He was the 449 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 2: puppetmaster of you know, of what we got to see 450 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 2: during COVID Last Dance, Big documentary. But besides that, Michael 451 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 2: Jordan's sort of been a man of mystery that sits 452 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 2: back and collects hundreds of millions of dollars a year 453 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 2: in Nike and Jordan money.

All right, I 499 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: know we're going to talk about that, but I do 500 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 2: want you to know that there's a lot of viral 501 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 2: buzz about how the Yankee fans are going to welcome 502 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 2: Sodo back to the Bronx after he chose the Mets, right, 503 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 2: I mean, he had a World Series run with the Yankees, 504 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 2: that's why Rich it does matter, and he chose the Mets. 505 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: Get out a But. 506 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: Yankees fans are like, yeah, of course they're gonna boo 507 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 2: the hell out of this guy, but they're also gonna chanty. 508 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 2: They are trying to plan maybe a silent treatment just 509 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 2: to throw them off. But it's gonna be a lot 510 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 2: of booing and a lot of Grisham's better. You might 511 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: hear that Grisham's better. I can't wait to see what happens. 512 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 3: I can't wait. 513 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: I really feel like Juan Soto is probably thinking, who cares? 514 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 2: He is gonna be locked in and zoned in. I 515 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: do think that you guys are throwing how many left 516 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 2: are you? You're throwing a lefty tonight Rodin, you throw 517 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 2: any other lefties? 518 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 3: I don't I don't look at him. I don't like. 519 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 3: I'm not a schedule watch. I don't like. I don't 520 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 3: like the Mets against the lefties. 521 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 2: But anyway, subboy series, some great NFL news we got, 522 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 2: of course, some NBA playoffs. 523 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:50,360 Speaker 3: I said it yesterday. 524 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 2: I'm not the guy that says told you so, but 525 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 2: I couldn't understand why Okac was favored by six yesterday. 526 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 3: It was in Denver, you. 527 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 2: Still got Joki, you got Murray, and now we're gonna 528 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 2: set game seven. And I said it yesterday, not that 529 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: it was by design Cavino, but this was a real 530 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 2: great test for Okay. See if they win at home 531 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 2: Game seven, They're gonna feel like they could beat anyone. 532 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: I know they're not the defending champions, but Denver two 533 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 2: years ago, Jokic arguably the best player in the league. 534 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 2: It's him an SGA for MVP. So I think a 535 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 2: game seven, if they come up big, yeah, that might be. 536 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 3: You don't let them start gaining momentum and confidence either. 537 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,120 Speaker 2: But then again, then then they have to go face 538 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards Michael Jordan's son, as you call them. Well, 539 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 2: speaking of Jordan's son, I'm not the only guy that 540 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: says that even their split screen faces sort of match 541 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 2: up perfectly now. But speaking of MJ Michael Jordan, everybody 542 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 2: wanted to be like Mike transcended sometimes Audrey, Yeah, me too, 543 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 2: he is me transcended fandom, meaning it didn't matter if 544 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 2: you were a Knicks fan. 545 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: Everybody loved Michael Jordan. Everybody. Every kid of the nineties, 546 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 3: I know I did. 547 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: Pumpkin Pie haircuted Jersey Kid had Michael Jordan all over 548 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 2: my bedroom. 549 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 3: Ken Griffy Junior. 550 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 2: Certain guys just transcended your alliance or allegiance to any team. 551 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 2: And you watched him play, you watched him dunk, you 552 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 2: tried to mimic his moves. You were watching Michael Jordan 553 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 2: when gatory came in a glass bottle. 554 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 3: That's true, That is true. 555 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 2: You know what, though, I'll tell you this, as much 556 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 2: as I love the Sneakers too, Space jam was never 557 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 2: my jam, to be honest, never was. And now NBA 558 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 2: on NBC. The first question is why we have our theories. 559 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 2: But it's the anniversary of Michael Jordan, Rookie of the 560 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: Year nineteen eighty five, forty years ago. Before we talk 561 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 2: about NBA on NBC, we reminists a little bit. 562 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 3: Sure he is me boom boom boom boom boom like Mike. 563 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 2: I want to be wow Rich in the high notes. Damn, 564 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 2: I didn't think you could do it this early. But again, 565 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 2: that was nineteen eighty five. You were rocking Jordan ones, 566 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,679 Speaker 2: you were watching Back to the Future, Great Scott. He 567 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 2: probably had a feathered haircut. But yeah, eighty five, forty 568 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 2: years ago, that's nuts. You were watching the Goonies, man, 569 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 2: And you know what, I know we're going to talk 570 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: about Michael Jordan a little bit here, and I like 571 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 2: breeze angle on this. To be honest, I really do 572 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 2: not that I'm surprised. I'm just surprised I didn't think 573 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 2: of it. Brie, that's all. Yeah, but he was like 574 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 2: shocked that bree came out, No new new Breeze is 575 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 2: intelligent and she's great. I'm just shocked that I didn't 576 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 2: think of this. You know, why is he being a 577 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 2: special contributor. He's plenty busy with his race team and 578 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 2: everything else, his business moves and just being Michael Jordan. 579 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 2: Does he really need to be out there on NBC. 580 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 2: But it's also the anniversary, Rich, Yesterday was the anniversary, 581 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 2: but this week was also the anniversary. It happened May fifteenth, 582 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen. 583 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 3: Do you know what happened this week? 584 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 2: I find it to be a pivotal moment in baseball 585 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 2: for one man's career. 586 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 3: Especially. 587 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 2: Let people think about that, for one man, a pivotal 588 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 2: moment in twenty sixteen baseball on this day. 589 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, something happened. I'll give you a little hint. 590 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 2: Something happened yesterday, twenty sixteen, and yeah, yeah, a little 591 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 2: put ah right, there's a hint, bam, And I don't 592 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 2: think the guy was ever the same after this happened. 593 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 2: It was like a career changer in my opinion speaking 594 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 2: of anniversary a little Cavino trivia. Yeah, Michael Jordan. It's 595 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 2: really interesting, Rich, because, like you said, what gives Michael 596 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 2: Jordan the mystique that he has is that he played 597 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 2: in an era and in a time where social media 598 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 2: didn't exist, So we didn't know Michael Jordan's opinions. We 599 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 2: didn't know and again, he was still living under a microscope. 600 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: Everybody followed the guy, loved the guy, but we didn't 601 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 2: know his real thoughts. 602 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 3: We did. 603 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 2: Mike, if Danny g was heir he to be grumbling. Yeah, 604 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 2: I'm grumbling inside. I'm giving you some side I Sam. 605 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 2: But I think that's part of the reason why we 606 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 2: still love him the way we do is because we 607 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,959 Speaker 2: only really knew him as a basketball player and as 608 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 2: the guy that wore air. Jordan's Some criticize him for 609 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 2: not speaking up on certain issues. 610 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 3: Issues. 611 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, to the point where you know, you don't really 612 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 2: say much. You can't upset many people. 613 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 3: He was a different times. 614 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 2: He's lost in the eighties and nineties, everyone wanted to 615 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 2: be like Mike and with the NBA returning to NBC. 616 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 3: And round Ball, Rock is making a comeback. 617 00:28:52,120 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 2: Well, Rich Basketball the record Riches Rich is a bigger 618 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: John Tesh fan than he is a Michael Jordan fan. 619 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 2: But I think part of the NBA on NBC Michael 620 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 2: Jordan angle John Tesh. And it was also announced that 621 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 2: Vince Carter is going to be part of the coverage coverage. 622 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 2: I think they're really looking for that nostalgia. I don't 623 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 2: think Jordan's doing it for the money. I think He's 624 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 2: doing it for that fan base and the younger fan 625 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: base that he still needs. It's like marketing one on 626 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 2: one for me, you know, I always use the same 627 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 2: example Rich. Big brands like Budwise or Coca Cola, they're 628 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 2: not advertising to you. You know, you know what that is. 629 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 2: They're advertising for the younger generation. So it's in their 630 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 2: brain brand recognition. And the NBA is still the young 631 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 2: man's game, and a lot of people, a lot of 632 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 2: young people watch it. They know of Michael Jordan. They 633 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 2: never saw him play, really they I've seen the highlights, 634 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 2: they know the shoes. But you know what, now he's 635 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 2: going to be there every once in a while back 636 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 2: in everybody's face, young people says, reminding everybody that he's 637 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 2: the guy. I think last Dance was for some For 638 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 2: a younger generation, I think that might have been the 639 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,479 Speaker 2: most they learned or knew about Michael Jordan watching that 640 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 2: documentary during COVID and perhaps just a reminder. I just 641 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: want to talk you about the money for a second, 642 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 2: because every time I hear someone say, man, I wonder 643 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 2: what they're paying this guy, you know, my first thought 644 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 2: is I read that he makes about four to five 645 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 2: hundred million dollars a year. We're talking half a billion dollars, 646 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: billions and billions and billions. Guy makes four one hundred 647 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 2: plus billion dollars from the Jordan Brandon Nike not too shait. 648 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 3: And billions and billions and billions and billions. 649 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 2: And when you make that much money, even if he 650 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: got a Tom Brady contract, what did Tom make three 651 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: hundred something million over ten years? If Michael Jordan made 652 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: twenty thirty million dollars a year NBA and NBC, which 653 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 2: he's not, if he did to be a contributor, that 654 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: would still be like, man, what does that mean when 655 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 2: you're making It's like, uh, you know they always say 656 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 2: like a guy like Bezos or yeah, he's not doing 657 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 2: it for the Munderberg. Like if they said to stop 658 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 2: and pick up one hundred dollars bill as a waste 659 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 2: of their time. 660 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 3: Those type of silly things you hear. 661 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 2: How much you ever see that stat of like how 662 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 2: much Bezos makes per minute? Michael Jordan doesn't need the 663 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 2: NBA on NBC's money. No, I mean, why is he 664 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 2: doing doing it for free? But yeah, it's not for 665 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: the money. I think it's again just to be out there. 666 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: Might miss it a little bit. I also think a reminder, 667 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 2: like hey, world, as as we all get older and 668 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 2: younger generations come into play, I want to remind everyone 669 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: here Michael Jordan. Here, I'm the I'm the goat. But 670 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 2: here's the thing. Can I give you another example. He's 671 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 2: a busy guy. He doesn't need this. He's got a 672 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 2: lot going on, Like we said, endorsements, race team, He's 673 00:31:58,520 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan. 674 00:31:59,200 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 3: He's a brand. 675 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 2: He's a he's a walking brand, is walking around. Have 676 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 2: you every think he's bored though, meaning like you know 677 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 2: you love that game. Might miss the NBA actually being 678 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: part of it, a part of you know when you say, 679 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 2: like when people say if you win the lottery, would 680 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 2: you retire? He's board golfing and living in an awesome life. 681 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 2: I don't know that could be. You can't discount that. 682 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 2: I'm just saying to imagine if every day you had 683 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 2: the ability to go on a yacht, go on a 684 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 2: private plane, go wherever you want. You know, I think 685 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 2: after a while you might be like a right, maybe 686 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: maybe I. 687 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 3: Want a little meaning, maybe I want a little something. 688 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 2: Okay, but let's break this down, special contributor, very specific. 689 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 3: What does it mean. 690 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 2: It means he's not gonna be there all the time, 691 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 2: That's what I think. And he's gonna do his best 692 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 2: and it's gonna be interesting. I guess Bryant gumbles sort 693 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 2: of thing, meaning I think he's didn't do some interviews 694 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 2: or some produced sort of package once in a while. 695 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 2: But he's not gonna be that guy that's there all 696 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 2: the time because they're so pumped to have him as 697 00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 2: part of NBC that it's on his schedule and and 698 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 2: they're always gonna keep him in that great light because 699 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 2: his brand's too big to take any risk. I don't 700 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 2: think we're gonna see like his true feelings on a 701 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 2: certain situation. I'm glad you're fut him down, young players, Like, 702 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 2: let's just have his style and I don't think it's 703 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 2: gonna work for his brand, and I think it's gonna 704 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 2: be Remember when Roger Clemens was like, yeah, I'll pitch, 705 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 2: but I don't really want to pitch, and I really 706 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 2: don't have to pitch you no, like Rocket, but it'll 707 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 2: be like home games and we'll you know, revolve. 708 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 3: Everything around you. 709 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 2: So he's like, all right, I guess I think that's 710 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 2: what they're gonna do for Michael Jordan, Like, hey, look, 711 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 2: you're Michael Jordan. You don't need us, but guess what 712 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: we really want you. So we're gonna do what you want, 713 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 2: when you want, and how you want, and that's really it, 714 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 2: and we'll reap the benefits because we'll see him and. 715 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 3: Then a whole younger audience also gets to see him. Yeah. 716 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 2: I think there's also something to be said about too 717 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 2: much to risk with the brand and look down at 718 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: your feet right now, at least someone in this room 719 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 2: is wearing dunks or Jordan's or something, right, I mean, 720 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 2: they got boxes of them. It's a brand, But I 721 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 2: should you say jeepers every chief though, where'd you get them? 722 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 3: Pay least? 723 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 2: Yets his shoes at pay least? So I'm just wearing crocs. 724 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 2: By the way, I'm not wearing crocs. I'm wearing low 725 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 2: I'm wearing dunks today. But most guys own at least 726 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 2: one pair of Jordan's. There's too much to risk. So 727 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 2: I'm saying you're not gonna hear any like crazy hot. 728 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 3: Takes from Michael Jordan. It's gonna be pretty safe and 729 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 3: he'll be in control. 730 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 2: And I believe most are saying they'll likely be prepackaged 731 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 2: like nice segments that nothing live picture stuff, like big 732 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 2: picture stuff. Think about it this way. It's been forty 733 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 2: years today since he won Rookie of the Year, right, Yeah, 734 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 2: it's been a minute nineteen eighty five. Do you know 735 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 2: anything about where Michael Jordan's stands on like current players? No, 736 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 2: you barely know how he feels about Lebron, which was 737 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 2: never really honestly, I think what Lebron wanted it to be. 738 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 2: You kind of knew how he felt about Kobe, right. 739 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 2: They had a mutual respect there for sure, but you 740 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 2: don't know what he thinks. I think you're gonna get 741 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 2: that from Vince Carter, that's like his role. I think 742 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,720 Speaker 2: you're gonna get some great insight there. He's not gonna 743 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 2: come out and try to be like like Shack and 744 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 2: Charles Barkley is not even gonna be his role special contributor, 745 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 2: very specific. 746 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 3: You know he stands on yachts. 747 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty much where he stands these you know, 748 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 2: I'll say this on golf courses. You're right, sometimes legends 749 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 2: have the ability to quote past the torch, intentionally or unintentionally, right, 750 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 2: like if David Letterman. I always remember David Letterman. Conan 751 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 2: talks about how there was a moment where Letterman sort 752 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 2: of gave him the thumbs up. He went on Conan 753 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,839 Speaker 2: Show when it first started, and he was like. 754 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 3: You're a you're a young funny guy. 755 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 2: I like this guy, Conan, And by doing that he 756 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 2: pretty much told the late night audience. 757 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:58,880 Speaker 3: I David Letterman endorse. Who's top of the heap? Who? 758 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 2: Who didn't love Dave letter of the Hill, King of 759 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 2: the Hill eight number one. He said to the world, Yeah, 760 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 2: I liked his young Conan kid. I think Michael Jordan 761 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 2: has the ability to really endorse. And by the way 762 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: someone hold on pause also sign of great character because 763 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 2: a guy like David Letterman doesn't have to do it. 764 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 2: We've been in radio a long time. I don't think 765 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 2: anyone has ever been like a Covino and Rich you 766 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 2: know who has Colin Kowher. He's always sid nice things 767 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 2: about us. Yeah, and it shows you, honestly that he's 768 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 2: the man. My dad would say him kissing as hey, 769 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 2: don't be kissing as I'm not. It's the truth. But 770 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 2: in other places we worked the big dogs there, they 771 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 2: never really acknowledged us at all. So for David Letterman 772 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 2: to do that shows a lot about who he is 773 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 2: and the fact that the great Dan Patrick is like 774 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 2: those guys are my filling right. Yeah, it's it's the 775 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 2: pat on the back where I guess you would say 776 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 2: the endorsement.

Yeah, what's the motive? Hey, Bri, 858 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 2: what's your theory on it? Because I do find it 859 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 2: really interesting, Brie super producing. 860 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 3: What are your thoughts? 861 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 5: I was just thinking that it's just a different audience. Now, 862 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 5: it's a whole different generation now, right that that. 863 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 3: And you had a thought about Lebron James. 864 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 5: Lebron has a podcast, Mind the Game with Steve Nash, 865 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 5: who I obviously the love, but it's just a different 866 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,280 Speaker 5: type of you know, media, right, Like you can compare 867 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 5: the two, Like, Okay, Lebron has this podcast and now 868 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 5: I'm just gonna be on like. 869 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 3: Huge network TV. 870 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 2: So Michael Jordan's still so competitive and wants to remind 871 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 2: every generation that he's still the guy because he's seeing 872 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 2: all these other players making moves after basketball and they 873 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 2: all have their podcast and Lebron James, you know, how 874 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,360 Speaker 2: many years does he have left? Maybe he wants to 875 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 2: step into booth and follow the Tom Brady's of the 876 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: world and the other goats of the world. They do it, 877 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 2: and Michael Jordan's like, Nah, I'm the dude. I'm doing 878 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 2: NBA on NBC. I hate to say it, he's still 879 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 2: maybe that competitive. I hate to say it, but the 880 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 2: same way the Kelsey Brothers, because of the popularity of 881 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift and everything, they decided to do a podcast. 882 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 2: Immediately it was like number one. There's a million NBA podcasts, 883 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 2: But if Michael Jordan decided to do one or just 884 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 2: enter the media world, the reality is, guess what it 885 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,240 Speaker 2: would be Covino number one, number one, It's Michael Jordan. 886 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 2: So maybe there is a competitive nature that goes even 887 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 2: that far where it's like, yo, everyone else got a 888 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 2: podcast or a show. Maybe special contributor really means blocking 889 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 2: Lebron James and you know, entering that world a little bit. 890 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 3: We have more CNR and for Dan Patrick next
