WEBVTT - End Of The Year Special

0:00:03.840 --> 0:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>From the King of Sports Books comes the Key Sports

0:00:08.520 --> 0:00:18.880
<v Speaker 1>podcast Unleashed, presented by the MGM. Here's your host, Jerry

0:00:18.880 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Ferrara and Olivia Harland Decker. Welcome to the final Unleashed

0:00:31.760 --> 0:00:34.760
<v Speaker 1>of two And I think my voice kind of says

0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:37.520
<v Speaker 1>it all. As I'm battling a cold, Jerry, your house

0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>has been battling some illnesses. Are we limping to the

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:44.440
<v Speaker 1>end of? Yeah, if this were a fight, our trainers

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:46.879
<v Speaker 1>will be thrown in the towel. If this were football,

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:49.519
<v Speaker 1>we'd be taking a knee, even though we're not winning.

0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:52.479
<v Speaker 1>It would be victory formation. Although we're not winning. Yes,

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:56.560
<v Speaker 1>we're limping to the end of That was gonna be great. Oh,

0:00:56.640 --> 0:00:59.000
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be great. You've got to share with everyone

0:00:59.080 --> 0:01:00.959
<v Speaker 1>what you just told me, fair of what your son

0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 1>said when he threw up for the first time, because

0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 1>it's about the funniest thing I've heard today. We completed

0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the three We had colds, and both kids we had

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 1>pink eye, which I never had as a kid, both

0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:14.720
<v Speaker 1>had and then one kid, our oldest, a little stomach bug,

0:01:14.840 --> 0:01:16.959
<v Speaker 1>threw up in our bed and said, dadda, I pooped

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 1>out of my mouth, which is disgusting. And not completely inaccurate. Oh,

0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:26.040
<v Speaker 1>it just paints a nice picture. So yeah, let's go.

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Two is done. Oh gosh, Although, to be serious, like

0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>a really really good year in sports and Jerry, we're

0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 1>coming up with a list of what we thought the

0:01:35.560 --> 0:01:39.000
<v Speaker 1>ten best moments in sports was this year. And you know,

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:42.040
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the year past January feels like

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>a lifetime ago. I think, especially when you have kids,

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:47.080
<v Speaker 1>like I became a mom in twenty two, I don't

0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 1>really remember much before the baby was born in May.

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>And as we put together this list, it was really

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 1>fun to enjoy what a year in sports it was.

0:01:57.360 --> 0:01:59.800
<v Speaker 1>And I think everyone will be as surprised as we

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 1>were as we actually put pen to paper. Yeah, because

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:04.720
<v Speaker 1>even we were talking off air, I was bringing up

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>some stuff that was very recent, and you said, are

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 1>you being prisoner at the moment? And I had to

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 1>think about it, and I'm like, yes, I am, Because

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.959
<v Speaker 1>when you look at the beginnings of two till now,

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.080
<v Speaker 1>so much has happened, and there's so much going on

0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>in our lives, and there's so much going on with

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:23.560
<v Speaker 1>social media, you forget about stories so quick. So yeah,

0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:25.799
<v Speaker 1>this is gonna be a good reminder for everyone and

0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 1>everything that happened in But we've actually got some huge

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:31.800
<v Speaker 1>games left this year. We're obviously going to get into

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:35.160
<v Speaker 1>that the college football playoffs semifinals that's on New Year's Eve.

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:38.120
<v Speaker 1>I am so excited We're going to break down those games,

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>will give our picks. I bet mine really surprise you.

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 1>But Jerry, any sports betting resolutions as it pertains for

0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:48.240
<v Speaker 1>the new year, Yes, Okay, a couple of things first

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:50.120
<v Speaker 1>on the sports betting front. We all know I'm an

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>emotional better. I do think it's time to we gotta

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:56.400
<v Speaker 1>ride Peter Andrew. The boys hot we talked about it

0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:58.799
<v Speaker 1>in last week's episode is coming off of some really

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.639
<v Speaker 1>really big wins. I think we have to. Now it's time.

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:03.720
<v Speaker 1>We were fading Peter maybe in the beginning. Now we've

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.760
<v Speaker 1>gotta get on Peter. But also, look, I'm a fan

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:08.640
<v Speaker 1>of the ten point teaser. I get a lot of

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>crap for it. People say, why do you need ten points?

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Put it in Portland. Listen, I've been hitting ten point

0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:17.119
<v Speaker 1>teasers all year. I've needed every one of those points.

0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.880
<v Speaker 1>So more teasers in three and then now I'm gonna

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:23.440
<v Speaker 1>also start segueing into basketball. I haven't even locked into

0:03:23.440 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 1>basketball betting yet, and now is the Super Bowl approaches,

0:03:27.040 --> 0:03:29.799
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna see me get hot with some NBA picks. Well,

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 1>and also you're just now dipping back into the NBA

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:34.120
<v Speaker 1>because your team is doing well, the Knicks and looking

0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>all right. They look they're they're playing tough. You know

0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:40.240
<v Speaker 1>something else that happened in two The Nicks signed Jalen Brunson,

0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.280
<v Speaker 1>and everyone in sports media said we overpaid and what

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:44.960
<v Speaker 1>has he ever really done? And he comes off the

0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>bench and to all of you, because that signing is

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 1>the first really great signing the Knicks have had in

0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>twenty five years. So that happened too. That happened. Well,

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about everything else that happened, because wow, what

0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 1>are your in sports? No? Er one? And this is

0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:05.200
<v Speaker 1>chronological for the most part. This isn't in terms, This

0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 1>isn't important obviously, but kicked off with Antonio Brown streaking

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:13.680
<v Speaker 1>off the field in the middle of a game. It

0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 1>really feels like that was years ago, but that was

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 1>just January two. The dude took his jersey off, shoulder

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 1>pads off, and bolted did a lap like a victory lap.

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:26.599
<v Speaker 1>I just cannot believe that still was in this calendar year,

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 1>and then a lot of conversation has come out from that.

0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 1>And then remember he's posted all this weird stuff with

0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>like gazelle boonshin and pictures, and I mean, it's hard

0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.400
<v Speaker 1>to leave this out of our list. Not the only

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:42.920
<v Speaker 1>time we've seen him naked pretty much this year as well. Hey,

0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 1>I forgot about that. I forgot about like that was

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 1>weird and we could focus on the Antonio Brown of

0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:51.680
<v Speaker 1>it all, of course because that was the headline, but

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 1>it also does signify this to me, potential end of

0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the Tom Brady run in Tampa. We'll see what happens

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:03.280
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs this year, and if they get in,

0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:05.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that might be the ugliest division I've seen

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>in a long time. I think one the last one.

0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the cam Newton Panthers in the South made

0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs at like eight and eight or seven and nine.

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:17.360
<v Speaker 1>So that also signified Brown left one little last playoff

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 1>run that didn't work out for them, Gronks gone. That

0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:21.880
<v Speaker 1>was also kind of the end of the Tom Brady

0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:24.719
<v Speaker 1>and Tampa potentially if they don't get their act together

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>and I just don't see it. So yes, that's how

0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:33.839
<v Speaker 1>we started number two. So back in January, also Tom

0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Brady retired. It seemed like the rest of the NFL

0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:40.200
<v Speaker 1>could breathe a sigh of relief, but that didn't last long.

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:43.559
<v Speaker 1>The goat unretired less than six weeks later. I forget

0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 1>it was just six weeks. He came back for year

0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 1>twenty three at age five, and yeah, that final chapter

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:53.680
<v Speaker 1>is still being written. So I don't know. What do

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 1>you think that Tom Brady hurt his legacy in that

0:05:56.360 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 1>weird six weeks span. I don't think it's post Cibolt

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.520
<v Speaker 1>for him to hurt his legacy. If it were someone

0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe with wondering and still some of the accolades, possibly

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:11.680
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing Tom Brady could do to hurt his legacy.

0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:15.719
<v Speaker 1>When you do hear stuff about the Miami Dolphins, stuff

0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 1>with you know, and maybe getting rid of to it,

0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:19.520
<v Speaker 1>so Brett, that stuff is always a little weird, all

0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.480
<v Speaker 1>the stuff that's behind the scenes that we maybe don't

0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:23.920
<v Speaker 1>need to know. But no, I don't think he hurt

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.760
<v Speaker 1>his legacy, And I for sure I think he plays

0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 1>another season. I really why not? Why wouldn't he? Why

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't he His arm his arm strength is still there, obviously,

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>he's not nearly as good as he was, but he's

0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.320
<v Speaker 1>good enough compared to this crop of quarterbacks in the

0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.080
<v Speaker 1>NFL this year. It's not gonna be with Tampa, but

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:46.479
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be somewhere else. Well, you gotta think of

0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.120
<v Speaker 1>it like this, right, he's not gonna go anywhere Obviously

0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:52.279
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't have immediate chances to win a super Bowl,

0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 1>or at least immediate chances to spend some money to

0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:57.880
<v Speaker 1>win a super Bowl. So when you start thinking of

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:02.200
<v Speaker 1>it like that, I you know, you could say the Patriots,

0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:04.680
<v Speaker 1>maybe you're back on the table. I think that would

0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 1>be an interesting story to have a good defense, to

0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:10.360
<v Speaker 1>have pieces. I think, Look, the Niners are always in play,

0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 1>but you know, because they don't know what's going on

0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>with Trey Lance's injury, Jimmy Garoppolo's injury. If unless, if

0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>brock Purdy tom Brady's Tom Brady and wins the Super

0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:23.440
<v Speaker 1>Bowl as a rookie being the last overall pick, then

0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:26.760
<v Speaker 1>that that could hurt that potentially. But if brock Purty

0:07:26.880 --> 0:07:29.480
<v Speaker 1>does not come up for the Niners, I do think

0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:31.679
<v Speaker 1>there's a chance that it's still a one and done

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 1>with the Niners and maybe a sneaky chance that like

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Vegas is Vegas? Really are the Raiders happy with Derek Carr?

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 1>They have weapons, there's a star wide receiver there, it's

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 1>a star running back there. So and then a coach Dad,

0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady knows and Josh McDaniels. Yeah, the whole brock

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 1>Purty story is really getting pretty incredible. Number three, what

0:07:55.200 --> 0:08:00.480
<v Speaker 1>did you say? Pretty incredible? One go down Fleete that

0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>did retire right, twenty three time Grand Slam champ Serena Williams,

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:07.240
<v Speaker 1>who gave us a few more memorable moments at the

0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:10.000
<v Speaker 1>US Open, making it to the third round. She truly

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 1>changed the game, took women's tennis to new heights. Also,

0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:16.760
<v Speaker 1>that movie King Richard came out this year, so we

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 1>can kind of lump that in with all that. That

0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 1>was such a good movie. Will Smith really incredible obviously

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Roger Federer also retiring so big here in tennis it

0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:28.520
<v Speaker 1>makes me a little, well, it makes me sad for

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 1>the obvious reasons. I don't think we'll see anything like

0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Serena Williams and just the way someone comes in and

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:38.520
<v Speaker 1>dominates a sport in that kind of a run. Also,

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I went to so many of her matches the US Open.

0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you've ever been Olivia in New York.

0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:45.720
<v Speaker 1>I like tennis. I can't say I love tennis. I

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 1>like tennis. I mainly watched the Majors and that's it.

0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 1>The US Open is an unbelievable live sporting event to

0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.240
<v Speaker 1>go to. If you haven't been, I highly suggest if

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.120
<v Speaker 1>you ever get the opportunity to go. And I've had

0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the pleasure of seeing Serena play four times for U

0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 1>s Opens. I was just at the Osaka one where

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:07.080
<v Speaker 1>they ended the match early because you know, she was

0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:09.480
<v Speaker 1>getting a little chippy. So, yeah, that's sad. And then

0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:11.040
<v Speaker 1>you think out Federal. The thing that bumps me out

0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:13.520
<v Speaker 1>the most is I'm getting so old now. These are

0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>people I grew up with watching them from Afar, admiring

0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:20.720
<v Speaker 1>them from Afar. You never think one day tennis won't

0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:24.160
<v Speaker 1>have Serena and Federer, and now they don't, and that

0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:26.679
<v Speaker 1>just makes me feel old. Yeah, and I do feel

0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:29.720
<v Speaker 1>like we shouldn't have Federal as the byeline there, like

0:09:29.760 --> 0:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>that's an obviously huge deal that he's retiring as well.

0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:36.360
<v Speaker 1>It's just the impact of Serena on women's tennis was

0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:40.079
<v Speaker 1>really big. I've never met Serena. I've met and interviewed Venus,

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:43.640
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just completely interested in them as a as

0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.560
<v Speaker 1>a power sister duo. But yeah, really big moment in tennis.

0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting old. I didn't say it. Number four Aaron

0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Judges chase of sixty one home runs, the American League record,

0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:00.840
<v Speaker 1>which he now owns with sixty two, all while betting

0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:04.680
<v Speaker 1>on himself and playing for new contracts. So he did it,

0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 1>he hit sixty two, he got paid, and what's next

0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:13.040
<v Speaker 1>for him? Aaron? Aaron? People do confuse me with Aaron

0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Judge all the time. We're similar size. What's next for

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Judge and Olivia. I'd love to hear your take

0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:23.280
<v Speaker 1>on this, because you know he did the I bet

0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 1>on myself year, which we love to see. I love

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.520
<v Speaker 1>when people bet on themselves and they win that bet

0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:31.640
<v Speaker 1>or a betting show. The home run chase was so

0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.280
<v Speaker 1>fun to watch for Yankee fans and baseball fans. Probably

0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>good for baseball, and now we got paid. Great great

0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:42.080
<v Speaker 1>year for Aaron Judge for the Yankees. A fine year,

0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:44.920
<v Speaker 1>not a good year because we measure with World Series

0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:49.480
<v Speaker 1>wins and we still can't even get to the World Series.

0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:52.600
<v Speaker 1>So for Aaron Judge, what's next? Look, you got your money.

0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:54.640
<v Speaker 1>We all know you're one of the best home run

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:57.920
<v Speaker 1>hitters we've ever seen. We need to get to the

0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:00.480
<v Speaker 1>World Series. I'm even saying win a ring. Let's by

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.680
<v Speaker 1>getting to the show and then we'll work from there.

0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:07.120
<v Speaker 1>Gott to make the World Series this year. I like it.

0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:12.120
<v Speaker 1>High expectations Number five. Over to the hardwood. The Golden

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:14.960
<v Speaker 1>State Warriors returned to the top of the NBA. Steph

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Curry like Thompson Draymond Green, they get their fourth ring

0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:22.199
<v Speaker 1>beating the Celtics. Steph finally got that NBA Finals m

0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>v P and put that Yeah, but argument to rest, right,

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.040
<v Speaker 1>so as we kind of digest that, and obviously now

0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Steph Curry's out for a couple of weeks and everyone's

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:35.439
<v Speaker 1>all concerned about the Warriors. But where does Steph Curry

0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:38.920
<v Speaker 1>rank all time? After what we saw in this last

0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:43.600
<v Speaker 1>finals run that was his uh forgot about dre Championship

0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:47.439
<v Speaker 1>where everyone's sort of forgot and talked about k D

0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:50.959
<v Speaker 1>and Kenny win without having that other guy and he did.

0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I love the NBA rankings and it's so fun to

0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:57.480
<v Speaker 1>talk about who's the goat all that stuff. Here's where

0:11:57.480 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm at with that stuff. It's hard for me to

0:11:59.400 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 1>rank all time NBA players. I never saw Bill Russell play.

0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:05.280
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see Old Chairman play and see Jerry West play.

0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:08.400
<v Speaker 1>So for me, just the people i've seen play, and

0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I've been watching basketball for now probably thirty five years,

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:19.280
<v Speaker 1>it's m J. Lebron, Kobe, Shack, Duncan, Curry. It's not

0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:21.360
<v Speaker 1>top five, that's six. So if you have to leave

0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 1>someone out of your top five whatever, Oh from people

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:30.079
<v Speaker 1>i've seen, Yeah, look I love Larry Bird, I love

0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Magic Johnson. I saw them. I was really really young.

0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:36.199
<v Speaker 1>I watched them more as they were older players. But yeah,

0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 1>sure you could. You could move shot out and put magic.

0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 1>And I'm just talking about people I've watched in their primes.

0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Steph Curry is right up there with with the greats.

0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Is your reasoning for dropping him technically out of your

0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:51.400
<v Speaker 1>top five of players that you've seen, because just not

0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 1>the all around game that we see from m J, Kobe, Lebron.

0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:59.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, steff Is, He's a shooter. He's a shooter.

0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:02.440
<v Speaker 1>He's the greatest shooter we've ever seen. I just don't

0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.679
<v Speaker 1>think he's done yet, and I think it's really hard

0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.719
<v Speaker 1>to fully say where a player ranks until they're done.

0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:09.640
<v Speaker 1>And I think he has a little he has more

0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:12.080
<v Speaker 1>left in the tank if he wins another ring. Yeah,

0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 1>where does that? Yeah? Where does that put him? You know,

0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:19.200
<v Speaker 1>he's championship wise, he's up there with everyone. So I

0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know I rank Curry up there on people. I've

0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:23.720
<v Speaker 1>just never seen anything like him. And like I said,

0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 1>I've been watching basketball for thirty five years, and he

0:13:26.520 --> 0:13:30.280
<v Speaker 1>stands out as someone who is just different than everything

0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:36.920
<v Speaker 1>I've seen in basketball. Number six, I'm going to college basketball. Obviously,

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:39.400
<v Speaker 1>the Kansas Jayhawks won it all, but I think the

0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:41.559
<v Speaker 1>biggest thing that happened in college basketball this year is

0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 1>that coach K retired after forty seven seasons, wins, five

0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:51.360
<v Speaker 1>national titles, seventy five NBA players, and of course it

0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:53.600
<v Speaker 1>was UNC in the Final four that sent him off

0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:56.480
<v Speaker 1>into the senset. It was like the most poetic justice.

0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 1>He can't write this stuff. Love him, hate him. He

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.400
<v Speaker 1>had a massive impact on college basketball. What did you

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:07.359
<v Speaker 1>think about Coach K retiring? Coach K Gonna miss him. Obviously,

0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:11.400
<v Speaker 1>greatest coach ever. I get this anytime someone does something

0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 1>for that amount of time, with that amount of success,

0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:16.480
<v Speaker 1>you've gotta get props. I just always wonder, and this

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:18.560
<v Speaker 1>is something I would love to ask Coach K or

0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Bill Belichick and all that. I just feel like if

0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:24.280
<v Speaker 1>that were me, maybe I would have called the quits

0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:26.920
<v Speaker 1>in my sixties, just so I don't know, do you

0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:29.880
<v Speaker 1>really I get it. You get addicted to the to

0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the helping, to the process, and you know you're helping

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 1>these players become things that they maybe never thought they

0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:39.360
<v Speaker 1>could even become. And I get all that, But for me,

0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:41.920
<v Speaker 1>I would have called the quits earlier, just because maybe

0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm lazier than Coach K and like, yeah, I'll let's

0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:45.880
<v Speaker 1>play some golf and I just want to sit in

0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:48.000
<v Speaker 1>a chair quietly for a little while and not have

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 1>to scream at players to do their suicide drills. Quicker,

0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I kind of agree. It's like, enjoy all the money

0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.400
<v Speaker 1>you've made, all the success you've had. You're still at

0:14:57.440 --> 0:14:59.760
<v Speaker 1>an age where you can travel and run around with

0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:02.960
<v Speaker 1>your and kids. And I'm kind of with you on that. Jerry, Yeah,

0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I can't knock it. I mean, obviously it's amazing what

0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:08.240
<v Speaker 1>he's done. But for me, I just know if I

0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:11.920
<v Speaker 1>ever reached like a point from like financially we're good,

0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:14.160
<v Speaker 1>and I just feel like I did it. I'm I'm good,

0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:16.120
<v Speaker 1>young you see me again. I'm not going to be

0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:19.120
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast, noted I'll start looking for a new cow,

0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>start looking number seven. Now, this one I obviously put in,

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:27.040
<v Speaker 1>but how could I leave this out? In college football,

0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:31.200
<v Speaker 1>it was all Georgia Bulldogs. They finally won the national

0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:34.480
<v Speaker 1>championship to start off two beating Alabama. It has been

0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:37.120
<v Speaker 1>over twenty years since they've done it, and they picked

0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:40.880
<v Speaker 1>up the start of the season right where they left off.

0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.880
<v Speaker 1>They still haven't lost a game and they're going back

0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:47.320
<v Speaker 1>to the playoff. And Jerry I tweeted, I like to

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.760
<v Speaker 1>call upon people for a little help sometimes when we're

0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.000
<v Speaker 1>putting together our show. And I said, you know what,

0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:54.680
<v Speaker 1>what are the best moments in sports this year? And

0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I had so many responses of Georgia, of Kirby Smart

0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 1>kissing the National champion Ship trophy, like all the stuff. Now,

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.240
<v Speaker 1>that probably says more about who follows me than anything,

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 1>but it really is. I think one of the better

0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:11.160
<v Speaker 1>moments in sports. I fully was ready to turn the

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:13.000
<v Speaker 1>floor over to you on this. I don't even think

0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 1>anyone we'll care about what I have to say. I

0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:17.920
<v Speaker 1>don't have much to add to that. All I'll say

0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:22.800
<v Speaker 1>is that was amazing. And obviously they could still cap

0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:26.200
<v Speaker 1>off even though account for three, but this would still

0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:28.240
<v Speaker 1>if they put the cap on this season, it still

0:16:28.280 --> 0:16:30.720
<v Speaker 1>would feel like a cap. It would be one of

0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:34.040
<v Speaker 1>the best one year stretches any team's ever had in

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:36.800
<v Speaker 1>a history of college football. And just with the whole

0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:39.040
<v Speaker 1>steps in Benett part of it all the quarterback, who's

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:44.040
<v Speaker 1>just such an interesting story of being so slowly recruited.

0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:46.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's short, he's undersized, he has a small arm,

0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:49.320
<v Speaker 1>he's just the whole story is like rags to riches

0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:53.000
<v Speaker 1>as football is concerned. And it's such a good story.

0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.440
<v Speaker 1>And I'm a sucker for a good story. They said

0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 1>the same things about me coming out of Brooklyn the

0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:01.360
<v Speaker 1>book to Hollywood. You know, sure, small shot, you know,

0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:04.000
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have a cannon, doesn't have a I got a

0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:06.359
<v Speaker 1>decent arm. The same things about me coming out of

0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Brooklyn moving out to Hollywood. Oh, I love it a

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:12.160
<v Speaker 1>good thing for my businesses. If you're five seven on screen,

0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:14.320
<v Speaker 1>you look like you're six too. Yeah, if you're five

0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:16.480
<v Speaker 1>seven on screen, isn't that the average height of a

0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Hollywood actor? Yeah? I think there's a line from Entourage

0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:22.320
<v Speaker 1>where the Ri character says, look at Tom Cruise, he's

0:17:22.359 --> 0:17:25.199
<v Speaker 1>five seven on screen. He looks like, yeah, man, I

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:28.600
<v Speaker 1>love it. Okay, switching to golf for number eight and nine, Jerry,

0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:32.320
<v Speaker 1>why don't you take us to number eight? Number eight? Okay,

0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:34.600
<v Speaker 1>number eight? I do This was a thing. It might

0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:37.000
<v Speaker 1>not feel like a thing now because months have gone by,

0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:39.879
<v Speaker 1>but the golf world was definitely shook when the Saudi

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:42.679
<v Speaker 1>Back Lived Golf tournament took the world by storm. It

0:17:42.760 --> 0:17:44.880
<v Speaker 1>did create a little, I wouldn't say a little, I'll

0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:47.520
<v Speaker 1>say major division across the p g A. It's a

0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:51.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of pros bailed, took some big upfront money and

0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:53.480
<v Speaker 1>the potential to play a lot less and win a

0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:56.320
<v Speaker 1>lot more. And then you have guys like Rory and

0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Tiger and speak out on just you know, the p

0:17:58.920 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 1>g A is the gold standard and the majors of

0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.080
<v Speaker 1>the majors and almost like you're either with us or

0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:07.480
<v Speaker 1>against us sort of thing. Really think back, and then

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:09.760
<v Speaker 1>we're seeing all the videos from the live Tour jet

0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:11.680
<v Speaker 1>which everyone looked like they were having a great time

0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:15.760
<v Speaker 1>part in obviously the things that come with anything that's

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 1>saddie back that people are gonna have a lot to say,

0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:22.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, politically. Someone said something really smart that would

0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.000
<v Speaker 1>never ever happen in a million years, and I'm not

0:18:24.040 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 1>saying this is not my thought, and I think it

0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:28.560
<v Speaker 1>was might have been one of the barstool guys. I'm

0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:31.320
<v Speaker 1>forgetting who it is, so forgive me whoever's thought this is.

0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not plagiarizing. What would be amazing for golf will

0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:38.479
<v Speaker 1>never happen in a million years. Is instead like you

0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:41.560
<v Speaker 1>have the Ryder Cup where it's euro versus USA. If

0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:44.159
<v Speaker 1>you could do a live tour verse p G a

0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:47.080
<v Speaker 1>tour Ryder Cup style event I did. This is not

0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:48.960
<v Speaker 1>my thoughts. Someone else thought of this. I read this

0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:52.359
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter, but I did think when I read that, Wow,

0:18:52.480 --> 0:18:55.639
<v Speaker 1>that would probably the best or second best golf are

0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:58.320
<v Speaker 1>The only thing better ratings wise, would just be Tiger

0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:01.560
<v Speaker 1>on a Sunday with a one stroke outside of app

0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 1>that would be extremely high rated, but that it just

0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:07.240
<v Speaker 1>would never happen. It is definitely a power struggle. I

0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:10.040
<v Speaker 1>can't say I've watched many live tour golf e penns

0:19:10.040 --> 0:19:12.639
<v Speaker 1>Olivia the day you have. I think I've watched point

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:15.399
<v Speaker 1>five like a half of an event, like a half

0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:18.800
<v Speaker 1>of a round, and I still love watching the PGA Tour.

0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:21.320
<v Speaker 1>So that definitely made a lot of noise when it

0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:25.119
<v Speaker 1>was happening. Guys taken big contracts to play less golf.

0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:27.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean it did. And let's think of it with

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:30.439
<v Speaker 1>more of one of our major sports, and golf has

0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:32.480
<v Speaker 1>a huge fan base. But let's say this was the

0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:35.240
<v Speaker 1>NFL or NBA. Can you imagine if all of a

0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:37.199
<v Speaker 1>sudden there was a new league and some of our

0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:39.600
<v Speaker 1>biggest stars left for it because it was more money,

0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:43.200
<v Speaker 1>shorter season, maybe we're better protected, better union, all that stuff,

0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>that it was more player friendly, and they all just

0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:49.680
<v Speaker 1>went to I don't know, Mexico and decided to play

0:19:49.680 --> 0:19:52.040
<v Speaker 1>a league. They're like, this was a big deal in

0:19:52.040 --> 0:19:55.960
<v Speaker 1>the golf world, really big momento. Yeah, even think about

0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:58.080
<v Speaker 1>like I hear you with the NFL, but there's so

0:19:58.119 --> 0:20:00.120
<v Speaker 1>many players. Think about it if it was the NBA,

0:20:00.240 --> 0:20:02.879
<v Speaker 1>where there's you know, fifteen guys on the roster. So

0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:05.479
<v Speaker 1>if you imagine if you took fifty of the best

0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:09.360
<v Speaker 1>NBA players and they went and just formed like an

0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:13.399
<v Speaker 1>eight team league. Uh, they could be playing, you know,

0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:17.320
<v Speaker 1>in Vegas or somewhere cool or Cabo or Miami. Don't like,

0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I'm watching that. That would be devastating.

0:20:21.200 --> 0:20:23.480
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, it was. It was a big thing number nine.

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.600
<v Speaker 1>And this might go under the people's radar. And if

0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:30.200
<v Speaker 1>you're not into golf, I get it. I totally totally

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:32.000
<v Speaker 1>get it. But you got to hear the whole thing.

0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:38.119
<v Speaker 1>If we recall Tiger Woods at two Masters, shot opening

0:20:38.200 --> 0:20:42.119
<v Speaker 1>round one under par Okay, that does not sound like

0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>anything significant. One under at the Masters. That's a good

0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:50.320
<v Speaker 1>round for Tiger Woods. Not his best round. He nearly

0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:56.000
<v Speaker 1>lost his leg in what was it? Remembering the year,

0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:59.040
<v Speaker 1>the fact that he went out there on one leg

0:20:59.080 --> 0:21:01.959
<v Speaker 1>after an accident that should have ended his career, and

0:21:01.960 --> 0:21:05.919
<v Speaker 1>he shot one under, gutting it out on arguably one

0:21:05.920 --> 0:21:08.639
<v Speaker 1>of the harder golf courses to play. It just adds

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:10.480
<v Speaker 1>to his legacy. Not that he needs to add to

0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:13.560
<v Speaker 1>his legacy, but let's not forget that happened this year.

0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:16.119
<v Speaker 1>It was the hey, I'm not even supposed to be

0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:19.040
<v Speaker 1>here around we Even though he was playing, no one

0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:21.000
<v Speaker 1>knew he was really gonna play. It was like a joke.

0:21:21.040 --> 0:21:23.359
<v Speaker 1>We saw him hitting balls on the range. It's like,

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:25.879
<v Speaker 1>oh wow, Tiger looks like he he's swinging. He was

0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:28.960
<v Speaker 1>swinging on the range, and like a month and a

0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:32.320
<v Speaker 1>half later, he's shooting a one under at the Masters,

0:21:32.320 --> 0:21:35.680
<v Speaker 1>and now you watch him play with his son. And

0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:38.600
<v Speaker 1>what I love most about Tiger Woods this version is

0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:42.360
<v Speaker 1>he officially laughs at himself a little bit. He said

0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:44.520
<v Speaker 1>some cool stuff with his son. He was letting his

0:21:44.600 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 1>son put second, meaning he was giving his kid to

0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:50.760
<v Speaker 1>read and letting him put This is like the greatest,

0:21:50.840 --> 0:21:53.200
<v Speaker 1>one of the greatest part as we've ever seen. He's

0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 1>already talking about Charlie's hands. He's like, oh, his hands

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.840
<v Speaker 1>are already bigger than mine and he's only whatever fourteen

0:21:57.920 --> 0:22:00.720
<v Speaker 1>years old. So I just think was a really really

0:22:00.720 --> 0:22:03.840
<v Speaker 1>cool story in really cool story. And as we were

0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:06.080
<v Speaker 1>coming up with our list, I was thinking, you know

0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:09.000
<v Speaker 1>those moments in sports that like, for at least the day,

0:22:09.080 --> 0:22:11.760
<v Speaker 1>if not a couple of days the week, it just

0:22:11.840 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 1>has everyone's attention, Like it's the thing when you see

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:16.200
<v Speaker 1>your friends you're like, hey, did you know did you

0:22:16.280 --> 0:22:18.400
<v Speaker 1>see Tiger? Like, boy, he looked he looked good and

0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:21.000
<v Speaker 1>he played well, and I mean, so we forget these

0:22:21.000 --> 0:22:25.720
<v Speaker 1>things were the water cooler conversation for that week, and

0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I think this was a huge water cooler conversation. This

0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:31.320
<v Speaker 1>was trending on social media, this was the headline. So

0:22:31.680 --> 0:22:33.680
<v Speaker 1>this for sure, how to make our top ten list,

0:22:34.040 --> 0:22:37.120
<v Speaker 1>but Jerry to finish out our list. And this might

0:22:37.200 --> 0:22:39.439
<v Speaker 1>be recency biased, but I think it's perfect because it

0:22:39.440 --> 0:22:43.000
<v Speaker 1>came in December and it was as big of a

0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:47.679
<v Speaker 1>moment that shook the world. Sometimes we get so insularius Americans.

0:22:47.720 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 1>We think that you know here, I am living overseas

0:22:50.040 --> 0:22:54.199
<v Speaker 1>and I still feel like an infler. Americano came to

0:22:54.240 --> 0:22:56.160
<v Speaker 1>an end with one of the most significant moments We've

0:22:56.200 --> 0:23:00.440
<v Speaker 1>got to all agree on that. Number ten Argentina winning

0:23:00.480 --> 0:23:04.080
<v Speaker 1>the World Cup led by Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest

0:23:04.080 --> 0:23:07.359
<v Speaker 1>player of all time. It was dramatic fashion. It was

0:23:07.400 --> 0:23:10.080
<v Speaker 1>said to be the best World Cup final ever. It

0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:12.360
<v Speaker 1>was tied up, it went to penalty kicks, they won

0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 1>four to two, and Tim Howard Jerry told us a

0:23:15.240 --> 0:23:18.800
<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks ago, Messi is compared to Maridonna, his

0:23:18.800 --> 0:23:22.080
<v Speaker 1>fellow countrymen, who had won a World Cup and this

0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:24.720
<v Speaker 1>was the one thing he needed to finally be proven

0:23:24.920 --> 0:23:27.240
<v Speaker 1>as not only the best player ever, but the best

0:23:27.240 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 1>player to come from his country. And it was a

0:23:29.680 --> 0:23:32.600
<v Speaker 1>huge deal. Messi's thirty five. He broke the World Cup

0:23:32.640 --> 0:23:35.840
<v Speaker 1>record for most appearances with twenty six games, and he

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:39.000
<v Speaker 1>said before the tournament that this would be his last one,

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:42.120
<v Speaker 1>but after the win, he said he wants to keep

0:23:42.160 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 1>playing for Argentina's We may actually see him in another

0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:49.360
<v Speaker 1>World Cup. It's in four years in North America. Canada,

0:23:49.680 --> 0:23:52.640
<v Speaker 1>US and Mexico are sharing it. My hometown Kansas City

0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:54.800
<v Speaker 1>is even hosting some games, so it's a big deal.

0:23:54.880 --> 0:23:57.159
<v Speaker 1>But that had to be one of the biggest sports

0:23:57.200 --> 0:24:01.240
<v Speaker 1>moments of the year. And last week we use the

0:24:01.240 --> 0:24:04.720
<v Speaker 1>audible of the Week for the call, which I loved

0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:08.200
<v Speaker 1>from the Telemundo call when they want it so really

0:24:08.240 --> 0:24:10.760
<v Speaker 1>really moving stuff. You can tell World Cup just kind

0:24:10.760 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>of Elicits more emotion than traditional sports does or even

0:24:14.880 --> 0:24:17.200
<v Speaker 1>like a Super Bowl. Like the fact that grown men

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:21.040
<v Speaker 1>are just in full tears hugging each other. It's really

0:24:21.080 --> 0:24:24.200
<v Speaker 1>moving to watch. Look, as someone who's not the biggest

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:26.440
<v Speaker 1>soccer fan in the world, not because soccer isn't the

0:24:26.640 --> 0:24:30.480
<v Speaker 1>amazing sport just because my bandwidth of things I could watch.

0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:33.479
<v Speaker 1>I can't watch every sport anymore until these kids get bigger.

0:24:33.600 --> 0:24:36.760
<v Speaker 1>It was truly, truly incredible. But to also to ask

0:24:36.840 --> 0:24:42.160
<v Speaker 1>someone after their greatest accomplishment, do you want to still play?

0:24:42.400 --> 0:24:44.800
<v Speaker 1>You know, you've asked a lot of questions to a

0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:46.919
<v Speaker 1>lot of athletes in your time, so I would almost

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:49.280
<v Speaker 1>defer to you, like, I get it, you gotta ask.

0:24:49.960 --> 0:24:53.240
<v Speaker 1>But how often do we see that player or that

0:24:53.359 --> 0:24:55.399
<v Speaker 1>athletes say yeah, you know, I'm done. Guess what if

0:24:55.400 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 1>you would have asked me after our second son was born, Jeredy,

0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:00.880
<v Speaker 1>you just had a big if you can have another kid?

0:25:00.880 --> 0:25:02.640
<v Speaker 1>I'd be like, hell, yeah, I'm gonna have another kid.

0:25:02.640 --> 0:25:05.240
<v Speaker 1>Why wouldn't I? This is the best thing ever. Cut

0:25:05.280 --> 0:25:08.399
<v Speaker 1>to eight months later, everyone's puking and throwing up and

0:25:08.440 --> 0:25:11.440
<v Speaker 1>pooping and pooping out of the mouth. Right, So let's

0:25:11.440 --> 0:25:15.280
<v Speaker 1>give him a minute to enjoy this wonderful accomplishment, and

0:25:15.359 --> 0:25:17.080
<v Speaker 1>let's talk to him in a few months. But that's

0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:18.960
<v Speaker 1>the tricky thing, right with the World Cup. We could

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:21.400
<v Speaker 1>talk to him in two years and he could still

0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:24.480
<v Speaker 1>be thinking about it, because it's not something that's gonna

0:25:24.560 --> 0:25:26.080
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't have to be O, T, A, s and

0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:29.240
<v Speaker 1>five months from now, so it's gonna be really interesting

0:25:29.240 --> 0:25:34.200
<v Speaker 1>to see he'd be thirty nine. What's wrong with thirty nine?

0:25:35.119 --> 0:25:37.760
<v Speaker 1>That's so young? I mean to me, that's your thirty nine?

0:25:37.960 --> 0:25:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Who thanks some forty? Okay, So that rounds up our

0:25:44.400 --> 0:25:49.040
<v Speaker 1>top head of most memorable and significant sports moments. But

0:25:49.200 --> 0:25:51.520
<v Speaker 1>we can have a little fun here because as we know,

0:25:52.040 --> 0:25:55.960
<v Speaker 1>weird stuff always happens, like off the field stuff, and

0:25:56.440 --> 0:25:58.960
<v Speaker 1>because our show we don't take ourselves too seriously, we

0:25:59.080 --> 0:26:02.119
<v Speaker 1>definitely indulged in the off the field stuff too. We

0:26:02.200 --> 0:26:05.040
<v Speaker 1>have to come up with our list of most random,

0:26:05.119 --> 0:26:09.120
<v Speaker 1>most surprising, most weird things that happened in two Why

0:26:09.119 --> 0:26:11.680
<v Speaker 1>don't you start us off? All right? I didn't really

0:26:11.800 --> 0:26:15.119
<v Speaker 1>have an issue with this one when it sort of happened,

0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:17.560
<v Speaker 1>but now I definitely get it. The Jeff Saturday higher,

0:26:17.920 --> 0:26:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I thought everyone reacted in a way that was borderline overreacting.

0:26:22.880 --> 0:26:24.680
<v Speaker 1>But when you hear the argument of you know, there's

0:26:24.680 --> 0:26:26.920
<v Speaker 1>so many other coaches that deserve that spot. Sure we

0:26:26.960 --> 0:26:29.520
<v Speaker 1>could have that argument. And he wins this first game

0:26:29.560 --> 0:26:31.919
<v Speaker 1>against the Raiders, and it's like everyone could shut up

0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:35.280
<v Speaker 1>now and then as we saw the comeback and all that,

0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I just I thought they hired Jeff Saturday to tank.

0:26:38.440 --> 0:26:40.680
<v Speaker 1>They're trying to win. I thought they were going to

0:26:40.760 --> 0:26:44.520
<v Speaker 1>do like a graceful tanking, like let's teach these young

0:26:44.560 --> 0:26:46.520
<v Speaker 1>guys some things, but we don't want to win any

0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:48.359
<v Speaker 1>games because we got some stuff to do in the draft.

0:26:48.600 --> 0:26:51.600
<v Speaker 1>So now that one is definitely looking more and more

0:26:51.720 --> 0:26:56.400
<v Speaker 1>surprising for me. Okay, for me, it's gotta be Zach Wilson's.

0:26:56.800 --> 0:27:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Would we call it alleged affair? Which is his mom's

0:27:02.119 --> 0:27:06.200
<v Speaker 1>best friend or his best friend's mom, maybe both? It

0:27:06.240 --> 0:27:08.720
<v Speaker 1>could be both, it could be both. We'll just call

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:11.840
<v Speaker 1>it the Zach Wilson mom friends story. I think it

0:27:11.920 --> 0:27:14.680
<v Speaker 1>was his mom's friend. It was someone's mom, It was

0:27:14.760 --> 0:27:19.920
<v Speaker 1>someone's mother. It was a mother. Yes, And that one

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:22.600
<v Speaker 1>just really rocked us because it was the first little

0:27:22.640 --> 0:27:24.800
<v Speaker 1>inkling that we were like, oh, is Zach Wilson kind

0:27:24.840 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>of is there something kind of weird? Is Zach Wilson?

0:27:28.200 --> 0:27:30.240
<v Speaker 1>And then more things come out, and then of course

0:27:30.240 --> 0:27:31.960
<v Speaker 1>he got benched, and then we find out he's maybe

0:27:32.000 --> 0:27:34.639
<v Speaker 1>not the most liked in the locker room and and everything,

0:27:34.720 --> 0:27:38.480
<v Speaker 1>and then Mike White is just like on fire, And

0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:41.320
<v Speaker 1>of course then Mike White gets hurt. Zach Wilson beck in,

0:27:41.440 --> 0:27:44.880
<v Speaker 1>but I mean, what a weird saga. Well, he also

0:27:45.040 --> 0:27:47.719
<v Speaker 1>leaned into it a little bit because after the story

0:27:48.359 --> 0:27:51.000
<v Speaker 1>was going on for like a week, he hadn't said

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:53.320
<v Speaker 1>anything right and then I think I believe it. If

0:27:53.320 --> 0:27:55.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm wrong, I apologize, but I'm pretty sure I'm right,

0:27:55.880 --> 0:27:58.520
<v Speaker 1>he tweeted, because I think he was down in like

0:27:58.640 --> 0:28:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Cobo with all his buddy there's something before the training

0:28:01.840 --> 0:28:04.040
<v Speaker 1>camp was starting or whatever, he just had one last

0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:07.239
<v Speaker 1>hurrah and like tweeted something like, hey guy, I've been

0:28:07.240 --> 0:28:09.600
<v Speaker 1>off the grid for like the last seven days. Anything

0:28:09.680 --> 0:28:14.159
<v Speaker 1>going on in the world, like totally pointing either you

0:28:14.320 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 1>make in front of it because it wasn't true, or

0:28:16.080 --> 0:28:18.000
<v Speaker 1>he's kind of shining a light on it because it

0:28:18.080 --> 0:28:21.800
<v Speaker 1>was true. That just looked not a good omen and

0:28:21.920 --> 0:28:24.800
<v Speaker 1>we've seen that it's not led to the best results

0:28:25.000 --> 0:28:27.800
<v Speaker 1>this year. So stay focused out there, young men, Stay

0:28:27.880 --> 0:28:32.919
<v Speaker 1>focused out there. Okay, it's his mom's best friend's best friends,

0:28:33.080 --> 0:28:36.920
<v Speaker 1>so um, a lot to unpack there, but that would

0:28:36.960 --> 0:28:40.600
<v Speaker 1>probably be a whole other podcast. That was a good one.

0:28:40.680 --> 0:28:46.240
<v Speaker 1>That Okay, what else, Well, just in terms of surprise,

0:28:46.520 --> 0:28:48.480
<v Speaker 1>not this does not necessary, This isn't going the fun

0:28:48.560 --> 0:28:52.440
<v Speaker 1>list at all, but the email Eudoka story from a

0:28:52.800 --> 0:28:58.080
<v Speaker 1>shock factor of wow, he's not coaching the team that

0:28:58.280 --> 0:29:00.360
<v Speaker 1>was just in the finals, could have won the finals,

0:29:00.400 --> 0:29:03.080
<v Speaker 1>and should potentially be back in the finals. So not

0:29:03.240 --> 0:29:05.560
<v Speaker 1>commenting on this personal life and all that, I don't.

0:29:05.960 --> 0:29:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I just find that hard of how much of that

0:29:08.720 --> 0:29:11.600
<v Speaker 1>factors in. But I was just shocked when that news

0:29:11.760 --> 0:29:14.240
<v Speaker 1>came out that more so that they were like moving

0:29:14.320 --> 0:29:17.800
<v Speaker 1>on from him all together. That was pretty surprising for me,

0:29:17.920 --> 0:29:20.840
<v Speaker 1>only because the Celtics did not start off last year

0:29:20.960 --> 0:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>well and they had one of the biggest turnarounds ever

0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:25.600
<v Speaker 1>and he was really proven to be one of the

0:29:25.720 --> 0:29:29.040
<v Speaker 1>best new coaches we had. Yeah, and I think now

0:29:29.200 --> 0:29:31.800
<v Speaker 1>as as this story has played out, he's obviously spend

0:29:31.840 --> 0:29:33.880
<v Speaker 1>it for the year. But remember his name was in

0:29:33.960 --> 0:29:37.160
<v Speaker 1>contention for the Nets job. That's part of the story, right,

0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:39.239
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be part of the surprising story. They

0:29:39.280 --> 0:29:41.239
<v Speaker 1>were like, you know what, screw it, we'll hire him,

0:29:41.480 --> 0:29:45.840
<v Speaker 1>and we thought that wasn't appropriate, and then you know,

0:29:46.000 --> 0:29:47.880
<v Speaker 1>him and n Along I think have now filed for

0:29:48.800 --> 0:29:50.840
<v Speaker 1>divorce and then she's come out saying that she was

0:29:50.920 --> 0:29:54.440
<v Speaker 1>really upset with the Celtics as an organization, that no

0:29:54.560 --> 0:29:57.440
<v Speaker 1>one reached out to her, No one reached out they

0:29:57.480 --> 0:30:00.280
<v Speaker 1>have a son together, that it was all very blick

0:30:00.440 --> 0:30:03.200
<v Speaker 1>and it was kind of made more about basketball than

0:30:03.240 --> 0:30:07.360
<v Speaker 1>it was. Yeah, so you're right that that wasn't a

0:30:07.440 --> 0:30:09.720
<v Speaker 1>fun one. And also on this note, and I know

0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:11.840
<v Speaker 1>I talked about it when it happened, but they never

0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:15.680
<v Speaker 1>obviously said who it was within the Celtics organization, the woman,

0:30:16.280 --> 0:30:18.480
<v Speaker 1>and so it made every woman who works for the

0:30:18.560 --> 0:30:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Celtics a potential target of who had the affair with

0:30:21.680 --> 0:30:24.360
<v Speaker 1>the coach. And like I said, I have friends who

0:30:24.400 --> 0:30:27.080
<v Speaker 1>worked for the Celtics women and they it was a

0:30:27.280 --> 0:30:30.400
<v Speaker 1>really really horrible time for all of them, because especially

0:30:30.440 --> 0:30:32.640
<v Speaker 1>those who are on the front facing side of it

0:30:32.720 --> 0:30:35.479
<v Speaker 1>in the front office or on TV, even worse than

0:30:35.480 --> 0:30:38.440
<v Speaker 1>their you know, young beautiful women. Of course people thought

0:30:38.440 --> 0:30:40.400
<v Speaker 1>it was them and anyway, so that was a really

0:30:40.560 --> 0:30:44.400
<v Speaker 1>ugly situation and just a lot of bad decision making,

0:30:44.560 --> 0:30:47.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, bad decision making. But yeah,

0:30:47.640 --> 0:30:51.600
<v Speaker 1>surprising moment and certainly impactful one on the court as well.

0:30:51.960 --> 0:30:55.280
<v Speaker 1>To me, there's really like a number one here. Oh,

0:30:55.760 --> 0:30:59.360
<v Speaker 1>at least for me, who is Like I said earlier,

0:30:59.360 --> 0:31:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I've been watching basketball for thirty five years and I'm

0:31:03.240 --> 0:31:06.440
<v Speaker 1>glad we've moved on from it, and the Warriors have

0:31:06.600 --> 0:31:08.360
<v Speaker 1>seemed to move on for Oh they're not playing, they're

0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:11.560
<v Speaker 1>missing Steph Curry. But the punch, the Draymond Green Jordan

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:14.360
<v Speaker 1>pool punch, because it's one thing to hear about it,

0:31:14.720 --> 0:31:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh they got we I've heard you know, there was

0:31:17.040 --> 0:31:20.480
<v Speaker 1>the Bobby Portius mirror titch punch where Brookish jaw. We

0:31:20.520 --> 0:31:22.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't see it, but we heard about it. That was

0:31:22.800 --> 0:31:25.240
<v Speaker 1>not nearly viewed as bad, even though the guy's jaw

0:31:25.400 --> 0:31:28.920
<v Speaker 1>was broken, had a missed time because the public didn't

0:31:29.000 --> 0:31:31.440
<v Speaker 1>see it. Right. We've heard about the Steve Kerr Michael

0:31:31.520 --> 0:31:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Jordan's We've but to see it definitely was whoa moment

0:31:37.680 --> 0:31:39.800
<v Speaker 1>for me. That was a pretty big surprise. Although I'm

0:31:39.800 --> 0:31:42.640
<v Speaker 1>sure that thing maybe not a surprise because I don't

0:31:42.680 --> 0:31:44.760
<v Speaker 1>know when that happened as opposed to when it got released.

0:31:44.880 --> 0:31:48.480
<v Speaker 1>But I feel like you heard about it and then wow, okay,

0:31:48.520 --> 0:31:50.640
<v Speaker 1>what's gonna happen there? And then the video hits and

0:31:50.720 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 1>that was like the second oh shit moment. Oh, Yeah,

0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:56.480
<v Speaker 1>that was like the punch heard around the world, and

0:31:57.000 --> 0:31:59.560
<v Speaker 1>it seemed to have very little consequence. And then now

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:02.640
<v Speaker 1>we see Damon like yepping at fans still and there's

0:32:02.680 --> 0:32:04.400
<v Speaker 1>still like a lot going on with that. But that's

0:32:04.480 --> 0:32:08.160
<v Speaker 1>that's Hey, Raymond gonna Draymond. But that was a big thing.

0:32:08.200 --> 0:32:10.320
<v Speaker 1>And then even Steve Kerr's reaction to it I liked

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:12.920
<v Speaker 1>because he was like more mad that the video leaked

0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:16.960
<v Speaker 1>than that the punch happened. But that was a big Yeah,

0:32:17.440 --> 0:32:19.640
<v Speaker 1>there's always going to be something that is happening off

0:32:19.680 --> 0:32:22.240
<v Speaker 1>the field that has our attention, and Jerry, damn it,

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:24.080
<v Speaker 1>you and I will be there to cover it, like

0:32:24.200 --> 0:32:27.080
<v Speaker 1>the serious journals that we are. What do you say

0:32:27.160 --> 0:32:38.520
<v Speaker 1>we get to unleach it's t alright. Mine has got

0:32:38.600 --> 0:32:41.400
<v Speaker 1>to be paying credit to the man who deserves it.

0:32:41.520 --> 0:32:43.120
<v Speaker 1>If I were a football player, I would want to

0:32:43.120 --> 0:32:46.480
<v Speaker 1>play for this guy, Dan Campbell. Gotta give the Lions

0:32:46.520 --> 0:32:49.160
<v Speaker 1>credit for not firing their head coach after a one

0:32:49.200 --> 0:32:53.160
<v Speaker 1>and six start. I think Dan Campbell deserves a ton

0:32:53.200 --> 0:32:56.080
<v Speaker 1>of credit for keeping not only his locker room invested,

0:32:56.160 --> 0:33:00.080
<v Speaker 1>but the fans. Those Detroit fans are such good ones. It.

0:33:00.320 --> 0:33:03.520
<v Speaker 1>People were checking out and he was trying to kind

0:33:03.520 --> 0:33:06.680
<v Speaker 1>of signal the rallying cry and hard knocks can always

0:33:06.760 --> 0:33:09.840
<v Speaker 1>give people's attention. But that's August, you know what I mean,

0:33:09.960 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 1>that's that's not what it counts. And in December football,

0:33:13.680 --> 0:33:17.280
<v Speaker 1>they really hit a stride. In November, they really hit

0:33:17.360 --> 0:33:20.880
<v Speaker 1>a stride. And they've had to be gritty. They've had

0:33:20.920 --> 0:33:23.000
<v Speaker 1>to do it offensively, which no one thought that this

0:33:23.280 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Detroit offense was gonna have anything sexy to it. They

0:33:26.240 --> 0:33:29.479
<v Speaker 1>didn't have too many toys to play with, and they

0:33:29.520 --> 0:33:32.560
<v Speaker 1>are doing it now. They're still on the outside looking

0:33:32.600 --> 0:33:35.160
<v Speaker 1>in with regards to the playoff, but spend an emotional

0:33:35.280 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 1>roller coaster and I give the Lions franchise a lot

0:33:38.680 --> 0:33:41.360
<v Speaker 1>of credit. The sad thing is is there's like two

0:33:41.480 --> 0:33:43.640
<v Speaker 1>playoff teams that are probably gonna get in over the

0:33:43.720 --> 0:33:46.680
<v Speaker 1>Lions that don't deserve to be there, like the Bucks

0:33:47.040 --> 0:33:49.600
<v Speaker 1>or the Panthers or the Saints are gonna make the playoffs.

0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:52.440
<v Speaker 1>And that sucks because right now the Lions are surging

0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and the lines are the best team in the North.

0:33:54.560 --> 0:33:57.160
<v Speaker 1>They are. I'm sorry, I just look at it. They

0:33:57.280 --> 0:33:59.200
<v Speaker 1>I know that the record doesn't show, but the Lions

0:33:59.360 --> 0:34:01.440
<v Speaker 1>right now the best team in the North, and it's

0:34:01.480 --> 0:34:04.160
<v Speaker 1>not not even that close to me. I agree. I

0:34:04.200 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 1>think we just learned that the Vikings were pretty fraudulent,

0:34:07.560 --> 0:34:12.000
<v Speaker 1>but gritty, I don't know. I I'm not sold on

0:34:12.040 --> 0:34:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the Vikings. Obviously, what they did a couple of weeks

0:34:14.000 --> 0:34:17.400
<v Speaker 1>ago was incredible over the Colts. But I think you're right.

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I think right now what team is the best in

0:34:20.080 --> 0:34:22.759
<v Speaker 1>the NFC North. I'm totally with you. Like I said,

0:34:22.800 --> 0:34:25.880
<v Speaker 1>they started one in six, they were closer to getting

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that first overall pick than they were making the playoffs,

0:34:28.320 --> 0:34:31.239
<v Speaker 1>and and now they've got a real case. So uh

0:34:31.520 --> 0:34:34.160
<v Speaker 1>that's my unleashed. Good on you, Dan Campbell. I love

0:34:34.200 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 1>your unleashed because I spent two weeks ago I was

0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:40.520
<v Speaker 1>arguing for Jarreed Goff on Twitter and uh my, that

0:34:40.680 --> 0:34:43.360
<v Speaker 1>argument gets better. And also they still, as we all know,

0:34:43.640 --> 0:34:45.560
<v Speaker 1>they still have the Rams first round pick, which is

0:34:45.560 --> 0:34:47.600
<v Speaker 1>getting worse by the week. So good time to be

0:34:47.600 --> 0:34:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Alliance fan. Good for you, Dan Campbell. I'm gonna switch

0:34:50.160 --> 0:34:52.200
<v Speaker 1>sports for a minute. I know we're not quite in

0:34:52.360 --> 0:34:55.399
<v Speaker 1>full NBA swing, although I am. I have to talk

0:34:55.440 --> 0:34:58.879
<v Speaker 1>about my Knicks year for a second, okay, and I'm

0:34:58.920 --> 0:35:01.319
<v Speaker 1>not going to focus on on how they're playing right now,

0:35:01.400 --> 0:35:03.360
<v Speaker 1>because I know that's the big talk. I'm going to

0:35:03.480 --> 0:35:07.800
<v Speaker 1>focus on Jalen Brunson. Jalen Brunson. When he was signed,

0:35:08.400 --> 0:35:12.760
<v Speaker 1>that move was picked apart by every smart journalist talking

0:35:12.840 --> 0:35:15.799
<v Speaker 1>head out there. Oh, the Knicks overpaid, why would they

0:35:15.800 --> 0:35:18.360
<v Speaker 1>sign it for this number. They're gonna regret this contract

0:35:18.440 --> 0:35:23.720
<v Speaker 1>in two years, and he has been everything Nick fans

0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:27.120
<v Speaker 1>and the Knicks organization could have hoped for from a

0:35:27.239 --> 0:35:32.480
<v Speaker 1>point guard, stability, leadership, crunch time minutes. I was excited

0:35:32.560 --> 0:35:34.960
<v Speaker 1>for the signing because what I saw him do when

0:35:35.080 --> 0:35:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Luca was out in Game six and seven verse the Jazz.

0:35:38.080 --> 0:35:41.160
<v Speaker 1>That's a big time player like forty two and thirty nine.

0:35:41.520 --> 0:35:44.640
<v Speaker 1>That's not easy against a good defensive team at the time.

0:35:45.080 --> 0:35:48.399
<v Speaker 1>So I think we could finally stop and say, look,

0:35:48.440 --> 0:35:50.040
<v Speaker 1>we all know what's gonna happen four years from now,

0:35:50.120 --> 0:35:52.840
<v Speaker 1>but for right now, that is the best move the

0:35:52.920 --> 0:35:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Knicks have made. And I think since Latrelle Spree, well,

0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the best move the Knicks have made

0:35:57.600 --> 0:36:00.319
<v Speaker 1>since Latrell Spree. Well, that's my unleashed I don't think

0:36:00.320 --> 0:36:02.440
<v Speaker 1>the Necks are going in the championship. Obviously, I'm not stupid,

0:36:03.040 --> 0:36:06.080
<v Speaker 1>but things are looking up. Dare I say, in the

0:36:06.200 --> 0:36:10.200
<v Speaker 1>spirit of things looking up, let's look at our championship parlay.

0:36:10.280 --> 0:36:13.720
<v Speaker 1>We're both gonna put together an interesting parley of sorts.

0:36:13.920 --> 0:36:16.319
<v Speaker 1>I think yours might be a little bit more out

0:36:16.400 --> 0:36:18.680
<v Speaker 1>there than mine. Maybe I'm playing it a little too safe,

0:36:18.719 --> 0:36:22.400
<v Speaker 1>But let's do the four major sports, NFL, n B, A, NHL,

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:25.440
<v Speaker 1>and MLB, right, okay, and you're gonna plug it in

0:36:25.840 --> 0:36:28.240
<v Speaker 1>bet MGM, and you're gonna tell us what the odds are. Okay,

0:36:28.760 --> 0:36:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I will tell you the odds. And let's unveil this

0:36:31.160 --> 0:36:32.759
<v Speaker 1>because look, we don't We don't talk a lot of

0:36:32.880 --> 0:36:35.560
<v Speaker 1>NHL in this show. We talk a little MLB. So

0:36:35.640 --> 0:36:40.160
<v Speaker 1>let's go NHL, MLB, n B A, NFL in that order.

0:36:40.200 --> 0:36:44.040
<v Speaker 1>At least we could presented that way, because um but yeah,

0:36:44.040 --> 0:36:46.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm curious to see what your odds plug in at.

0:36:46.000 --> 0:36:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be plugging these in as we go. Okay,

0:36:48.200 --> 0:36:51.839
<v Speaker 1>for NHL, I'm very honest. I don't follow the league

0:36:51.880 --> 0:36:53.839
<v Speaker 1>as much. I don't know as much about the league.

0:36:53.880 --> 0:36:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Peter Andrews a big hockey guy, so he can he

0:36:56.480 --> 0:36:58.399
<v Speaker 1>can tell me if this is a bad pick, it's

0:36:58.440 --> 0:37:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's a favorite. I'm just going to the favorite,

0:37:00.520 --> 0:37:03.799
<v Speaker 1>the Avalanche at plus five fifty. That's my NHL pick.

0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:07.239
<v Speaker 1>For MLB, I do follow the MLB a little bit

0:37:07.280 --> 0:37:10.600
<v Speaker 1>more closely. I'm going with the Padres at plus one thousand.

0:37:10.920 --> 0:37:14.200
<v Speaker 1>They just added Sander Bogart's getting Fernando Tattoos junior back.

0:37:14.280 --> 0:37:16.920
<v Speaker 1>They have one so too. They just have so much talent.

0:37:17.080 --> 0:37:19.439
<v Speaker 1>They have paid their way to a championship, I think,

0:37:20.080 --> 0:37:22.719
<v Speaker 1>and I like the Padres, so put that in from LB.

0:37:23.280 --> 0:37:26.600
<v Speaker 1>What's next, NBA, n A, NBA. I'm going with the

0:37:26.640 --> 0:37:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Bucks at plus four twenty. That's my NBA team. I

0:37:30.160 --> 0:37:32.239
<v Speaker 1>never really know what my NBA team is, but my

0:37:32.320 --> 0:37:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Wisconsin Tis always pulled me back to the Bucks. Don't

0:37:35.080 --> 0:37:37.840
<v Speaker 1>go with them. I just still that coaching staff is

0:37:38.080 --> 0:37:39.759
<v Speaker 1>who I had in Atlanta when I was working for

0:37:39.840 --> 0:37:41.640
<v Speaker 1>the Hawks, so I still I'm always coach cheering on

0:37:41.760 --> 0:37:43.960
<v Speaker 1>coach Bud. So that's just a little bit of who

0:37:44.040 --> 0:37:46.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to win. And then in the NFL, like

0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:49.839
<v Speaker 1>my hat suggests, I'm going with the Chiefs at plus

0:37:49.920 --> 0:37:53.200
<v Speaker 1>four seventy. My Packers are out of it. Chiefs, although

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:55.120
<v Speaker 1>the last couple of weeks not looking that great. I

0:37:55.200 --> 0:37:58.440
<v Speaker 1>still really believe in Kansas City. So what am I at? Okay,

0:37:58.640 --> 0:38:01.680
<v Speaker 1>that was a little chalky for all four major sports,

0:38:01.800 --> 0:38:03.920
<v Speaker 1>but you still have a lot of value. And I'm

0:38:03.960 --> 0:38:06.680
<v Speaker 1>actually I am going to bet on both of these

0:38:06.840 --> 0:38:09.359
<v Speaker 1>because the worst thing for any better is to hear

0:38:09.480 --> 0:38:13.080
<v Speaker 1>someone say a lottery ticket bet and not throw a

0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:15.560
<v Speaker 1>little money on it because if it hits, we'll never

0:38:15.640 --> 0:38:18.920
<v Speaker 1>forget it. But yours plugs in at And if I'm

0:38:19.000 --> 0:38:21.360
<v Speaker 1>doing this math right, guys. Math is not my strongest

0:38:21.480 --> 0:38:23.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm just reading off the website here. That is plus

0:38:24.080 --> 0:38:27.800
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and thirty five thousand, eight hundred and fifty.

0:38:28.640 --> 0:38:31.840
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, a hundred dollars get you two hundred and

0:38:31.960 --> 0:38:38.720
<v Speaker 1>thirty five thousand, nine and fifty. I think that's worth

0:38:38.920 --> 0:38:41.440
<v Speaker 1>at least a dollar. That's worth at least a dollar.

0:38:42.239 --> 0:38:45.200
<v Speaker 1>That's a lot of ticket. I like it. Okay, my turn,

0:38:45.320 --> 0:38:48.960
<v Speaker 1>I guess right. So starting with hockey again, like you

0:38:49.360 --> 0:38:51.400
<v Speaker 1>used to love hockey, played a lot of hockey as

0:38:51.440 --> 0:38:53.480
<v Speaker 1>a kid. They got me very upset when they locked

0:38:53.520 --> 0:38:56.440
<v Speaker 1>the players out in the year after the Rangers won

0:38:56.520 --> 0:38:59.360
<v Speaker 1>the Cup, Rangers on bet MGM are plus two thousand.

0:38:59.440 --> 0:39:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna be a total homer, so I'm going

0:39:02.160 --> 0:39:04.560
<v Speaker 1>sort of mid odds here. I'm going with the Vegas

0:39:04.640 --> 0:39:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Golden Knights at plus nine hundred. They've won before. I

0:39:09.000 --> 0:39:11.560
<v Speaker 1>just think that they have a great atmosphere to play

0:39:11.600 --> 0:39:13.560
<v Speaker 1>in and it's gonna all be about getting hot at

0:39:13.600 --> 0:39:15.759
<v Speaker 1>the right time. So I'm gonna go Vegas Golden Knights

0:39:15.840 --> 0:39:19.279
<v Speaker 1>for hockey for baseball, and I spared us. I am

0:39:19.400 --> 0:39:22.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna go a little bit homer here because also we

0:39:23.000 --> 0:39:25.560
<v Speaker 1>did talk about what is next for Aaron Judge. He's

0:39:25.560 --> 0:39:28.279
<v Speaker 1>already hit a million home runs and he's already got

0:39:28.320 --> 0:39:31.920
<v Speaker 1>paid billions of dollars. He needs to win a World Series.

0:39:32.520 --> 0:39:34.640
<v Speaker 1>And I like what the Yankees are doing so far

0:39:34.719 --> 0:39:37.080
<v Speaker 1>in the off season. It hasn't been as splashy, but

0:39:37.160 --> 0:39:40.319
<v Speaker 1>it's been good plus seven fifty for the Yankees. I'm

0:39:40.320 --> 0:39:44.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna plug them in there. Do they are do okay? NBA?

0:39:45.719 --> 0:39:47.239
<v Speaker 1>This one gives me a lot of This one I

0:39:47.560 --> 0:39:49.920
<v Speaker 1>could agonize about because I could make the argument for

0:39:50.000 --> 0:39:53.000
<v Speaker 1>so many teams. But similarly to Olivia, I have a

0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:55.759
<v Speaker 1>hard time. I don't like going chalk. Celtics are the

0:39:55.800 --> 0:39:58.759
<v Speaker 1>best odds, But I have a hard time going under

0:39:58.800 --> 0:40:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that with the Suns or even of Warriors a plus

0:40:01.120 --> 0:40:04.600
<v Speaker 1>one thousand, I'm going with the Clippers. Okay, I know

0:40:04.800 --> 0:40:09.439
<v Speaker 1>that's a borderline ridiculous pick I get it. I'm gonna

0:40:09.480 --> 0:40:11.400
<v Speaker 1>put a dollar on this, But I have the Clippers

0:40:11.440 --> 0:40:14.560
<v Speaker 1>in there because if they could just We've seen it.

0:40:14.640 --> 0:40:16.560
<v Speaker 1>We saw a Kauai and Paul George did a few

0:40:16.560 --> 0:40:18.879
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago to the Celtics, who arguably have the better

0:40:19.040 --> 0:40:21.560
<v Speaker 1>version right now of Paul George and Kawhi Leonard and

0:40:21.680 --> 0:40:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Jayalen Brown and Jayson Tatum, if they are well coached,

0:40:25.640 --> 0:40:29.400
<v Speaker 1>if they could just get Paul George and Kawai Leonard healthy,

0:40:29.760 --> 0:40:33.680
<v Speaker 1>fit and in shape for the playoffs, I like those

0:40:33.800 --> 0:40:35.920
<v Speaker 1>plus one thousand odds. So that's what I'm gonna do

0:40:35.960 --> 0:40:38.560
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA, especially if the Warriors slipping a little

0:40:38.560 --> 0:40:40.480
<v Speaker 1>bit here, they can catch up, kind of make some

0:40:40.640 --> 0:40:43.600
<v Speaker 1>ground up in the West and help playoff seeding. If

0:40:43.600 --> 0:40:46.719
<v Speaker 1>you look big picture, Macro, I'm with you. I really

0:40:46.760 --> 0:40:49.879
<v Speaker 1>do love the Clippers actually to make it to the finals. Again,

0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:52.160
<v Speaker 1>all those things I just said being true if those

0:40:52.239 --> 0:40:54.880
<v Speaker 1>two are healthy, because who in the West is really

0:40:55.520 --> 0:40:57.600
<v Speaker 1>sticking out of you, But I'm with you. In the East,

0:40:57.680 --> 0:41:00.520
<v Speaker 1>the Celtics and the Bucks are I think Janice is

0:41:00.560 --> 0:41:04.480
<v Speaker 1>going to be like the Terminator Man possessed this year

0:41:04.560 --> 0:41:07.680
<v Speaker 1>in the playoffs. I can't wait to watch it. West

0:41:07.800 --> 0:41:10.440
<v Speaker 1>is tight, Okay, the NFL. This is gonna be the

0:41:10.520 --> 0:41:12.799
<v Speaker 1>first one of these two hit on our tickets here.

0:41:13.080 --> 0:41:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I love the Chiefs. I'm with you, I get it.

0:41:15.320 --> 0:41:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I do worry a little bit about the Chiefs and

0:41:17.400 --> 0:41:20.560
<v Speaker 1>falling asleep at the wheel sometimes. I am going to

0:41:20.680 --> 0:41:24.040
<v Speaker 1>go with us. I'm betting on a story here and

0:41:24.120 --> 0:41:28.040
<v Speaker 1>a very good team. I'm betting on the Tom Brady story.

0:41:28.400 --> 0:41:31.480
<v Speaker 1>But except I'm not betting on Tom Brady. I'm betting

0:41:31.520 --> 0:41:35.279
<v Speaker 1>on brock Purty. I just feel like we've seen this

0:41:35.480 --> 0:41:38.680
<v Speaker 1>story before with the guy who comes out of nowhere

0:41:39.280 --> 0:41:41.920
<v Speaker 1>late pick and then you see that he's really good

0:41:42.000 --> 0:41:44.400
<v Speaker 1>in the system. It seems like he's been paying attention

0:41:44.480 --> 0:41:47.080
<v Speaker 1>while he's been the backup quarterback. I just feel like

0:41:47.160 --> 0:41:51.279
<v Speaker 1>with those weapons in San Francisco, obviously the debo, they

0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:53.320
<v Speaker 1>may have dodged a bullet. That injury might not be

0:41:53.440 --> 0:41:58.440
<v Speaker 1>that bad. Kittles coming alive now that defense is absolutely insane.

0:41:58.920 --> 0:42:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I think at plus of an hundred to put the

0:42:01.800 --> 0:42:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Niners in there for an outright Super Bowl win, I'm

0:42:05.160 --> 0:42:07.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna be thrown down on that even outside of this ticket,

0:42:07.719 --> 0:42:13.560
<v Speaker 1>no matter what. So Golden Knights, Yankees, Clippers, forty Niners,

0:42:13.960 --> 0:42:21.560
<v Speaker 1>that gets you plus seven hundred thousand. Yeah, so a

0:42:21.680 --> 0:42:25.080
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars wins you seven hundred forty thousand. Who wants

0:42:25.120 --> 0:42:28.440
<v Speaker 1>to go buy a really, really nice house in Ohio,

0:42:28.760 --> 0:42:34.400
<v Speaker 1>let's go. I think the Clippers are the one spiking

0:42:34.440 --> 0:42:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that price a little bit. But yeah, of course the

0:42:37.280 --> 0:42:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Clippers are definitely spiking that. I may do another version

0:42:40.920 --> 0:42:43.200
<v Speaker 1>of that with maybe the Celtics or the Box just

0:42:43.360 --> 0:42:47.239
<v Speaker 1>to have a little yeah but not all chalk from

0:42:47.239 --> 0:42:50.200
<v Speaker 1>the kid. We know. I I love lottery tickets, Okay,

0:42:50.239 --> 0:42:52.279
<v Speaker 1>I love that. That was fun. Everyone can hold us

0:42:52.280 --> 0:42:56.359
<v Speaker 1>accountable to that. But as for this year, we've still

0:42:56.400 --> 0:42:58.640
<v Speaker 1>got the Fiesta Bowl and the Peach Bowl to help

0:42:58.719 --> 0:43:01.239
<v Speaker 1>us decide the National cheer Chapionship. So let's give our

0:43:01.280 --> 0:43:04.439
<v Speaker 1>picks there. First, up TCU versus Michigan. Michigan's a seven

0:43:04.520 --> 0:43:07.719
<v Speaker 1>and a half point favorite. Darry. Beginning of the year,

0:43:07.960 --> 0:43:09.919
<v Speaker 1>you couldn't find a college football team. You said, maybe

0:43:09.960 --> 0:43:13.360
<v Speaker 1>you do Michigan because your wife's half family cheers for

0:43:13.440 --> 0:43:16.439
<v Speaker 1>the buck Eyes. Yes, are you riding this one through

0:43:16.680 --> 0:43:20.239
<v Speaker 1>to the very end? Well after Pat Forty, friend of

0:43:20.280 --> 0:43:23.400
<v Speaker 1>the show, gave me Coastal Carolina, I no longer have

0:43:23.640 --> 0:43:27.040
<v Speaker 1>to ride hard for the Wolverines, but I do like

0:43:27.239 --> 0:43:29.200
<v Speaker 1>them for the for the win here. I don't know

0:43:29.320 --> 0:43:31.120
<v Speaker 1>if they cover seven and a half. I feel like

0:43:31.120 --> 0:43:33.360
<v Speaker 1>it'll be a little tighter than people might think, but

0:43:33.600 --> 0:43:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I do like Michigan to win. I'm definitely interested to

0:43:36.320 --> 0:43:37.680
<v Speaker 1>hear your opinion on this one because I think I

0:43:37.719 --> 0:43:39.279
<v Speaker 1>know what your opinion is gonna be on the next one.

0:43:39.640 --> 0:43:41.239
<v Speaker 1>So this one I really like, who do you do

0:43:41.320 --> 0:43:44.200
<v Speaker 1>You do you give TCU any chance at winning here? No,

0:43:44.640 --> 0:43:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I like Michigan to win and cover. I think TCU

0:43:46.920 --> 0:43:49.400
<v Speaker 1>will be exposed now that they're playing the big boys

0:43:49.440 --> 0:43:52.440
<v Speaker 1>from up north, and I think this is gonna be

0:43:52.520 --> 0:43:55.439
<v Speaker 1>a blowout, I gotta say. And then, obviously you mentioned

0:43:55.480 --> 0:43:58.320
<v Speaker 1>this next one is it's gonna be more personal. But

0:43:58.400 --> 0:44:01.479
<v Speaker 1>I've I've seen him in person. They're they're undefeated. There's

0:44:01.480 --> 0:44:04.799
<v Speaker 1>a reason that they are so stout, and they will

0:44:04.880 --> 0:44:08.719
<v Speaker 1>be for the foreseeable future. I mean Georgia, the recruiting,

0:44:08.880 --> 0:44:12.680
<v Speaker 1>the process, that everything, Georgia is just playing at a

0:44:12.760 --> 0:44:15.640
<v Speaker 1>different level right now. Then everyone there a six and

0:44:15.640 --> 0:44:18.360
<v Speaker 1>a half point favorite over Ohio State, who's snuck in?

0:44:19.320 --> 0:44:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Snuck in and I or yeah, we had a great

0:44:23.239 --> 0:44:25.920
<v Speaker 1>by hope they're all arrested and healthy. I mean, I

0:44:26.080 --> 0:44:29.040
<v Speaker 1>just the whole thing with the college football playoff, And

0:44:29.400 --> 0:44:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I told you this was going to happen. Someone who

0:44:32.600 --> 0:44:35.880
<v Speaker 1>lost and didn't even win their division in their conference

0:44:36.000 --> 0:44:38.799
<v Speaker 1>is going to sneak in by not having to jump

0:44:38.840 --> 0:44:42.560
<v Speaker 1>that thirteen turtle, and it happened. So I laid an

0:44:42.600 --> 0:44:44.880
<v Speaker 1>os U pretty hard to after they're lost to Michigan.

0:44:45.040 --> 0:44:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Poor coaching, poor decision making, poor effort. I do think

0:44:48.520 --> 0:44:52.279
<v Speaker 1>they'll have some new life because they're like a cat

0:44:52.480 --> 0:44:55.000
<v Speaker 1>on their ninth life now getting into the playoff. But

0:44:55.440 --> 0:44:58.239
<v Speaker 1>I still like the dogs to cover. They're gonna win

0:44:58.320 --> 0:45:00.400
<v Speaker 1>big two at least a touchdown, so the cover that

0:45:00.440 --> 0:45:02.279
<v Speaker 1>six and a half and I don't think this will

0:45:02.320 --> 0:45:04.239
<v Speaker 1>be that close. And I think we'll have a really

0:45:04.320 --> 0:45:08.760
<v Speaker 1>good national championship with Michigan and Georgia to two blue bloods.

0:45:09.040 --> 0:45:10.800
<v Speaker 1>That would be a great Finals matchup. Just know on

0:45:10.880 --> 0:45:13.680
<v Speaker 1>New Year's Eve I will be I will be watching

0:45:13.840 --> 0:45:16.160
<v Speaker 1>this game with a bunch of Ohio State fans. I

0:45:16.239 --> 0:45:18.800
<v Speaker 1>will say a couple of things. I'm with you. I

0:45:18.840 --> 0:45:22.000
<v Speaker 1>think Georgia wins and cover. I do think it will

0:45:22.120 --> 0:45:26.520
<v Speaker 1>be close for a really long time, enough to make

0:45:26.640 --> 0:45:30.960
<v Speaker 1>you and other Bulldog fans very uncomfortable. I think there's

0:45:31.000 --> 0:45:34.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna be two and a half, maybe even three quarters

0:45:35.320 --> 0:45:39.359
<v Speaker 1>where Georgia is very fans are very uncomfortable, and then

0:45:39.400 --> 0:45:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I think ultimately just pull away because there's just too

0:45:41.280 --> 0:45:44.520
<v Speaker 1>much talent. However, I'm just gonna put this out there,

0:45:44.840 --> 0:45:47.520
<v Speaker 1>and this is no bad or goodwill, just pointing out

0:45:47.960 --> 0:45:51.239
<v Speaker 1>a thing I see. If for some reason Ohio State

0:45:51.560 --> 0:45:53.560
<v Speaker 1>should happen to win this game, which I don't think

0:45:53.560 --> 0:45:57.239
<v Speaker 1>they will, I think we have to go redo our

0:45:57.520 --> 0:46:01.960
<v Speaker 1>two thousand twenty two more moments of surprise and shock

0:46:02.040 --> 0:46:06.280
<v Speaker 1>because this would end a Georgia run that has been spectacular.

0:46:06.680 --> 0:46:09.880
<v Speaker 1>And I think will that game end before midnight? Probably

0:46:10.040 --> 0:46:13.040
<v Speaker 1>on the East right? I think so? Yeah, So it

0:46:13.040 --> 0:46:17.879
<v Speaker 1>would count. Yeah, editors would love that if we say, guys,

0:46:18.040 --> 0:46:20.000
<v Speaker 1>stop what you're doing, you know, put down your flute

0:46:20.000 --> 0:46:24.719
<v Speaker 1>of champagne stop presses. We've got to re record that

0:46:24.719 --> 0:46:29.840
<v Speaker 1>episode by Georgia. Georgia will do it. Yeah, I mentioned

0:46:29.880 --> 0:46:31.480
<v Speaker 1>at the top of the show, I am sick. My

0:46:31.600 --> 0:46:33.399
<v Speaker 1>voice sounds so horrible. If you've made it this far,

0:46:33.560 --> 0:46:35.520
<v Speaker 1>thank you. I'm sick of hearing my own voice. So

0:46:35.640 --> 0:46:37.239
<v Speaker 1>let's get to the audible of the week so we

0:46:37.280 --> 0:46:40.239
<v Speaker 1>can hear someone else's. Darry, Why don't you walk us

0:46:40.280 --> 0:46:42.399
<v Speaker 1>through this one. So I was thinking about what could

0:46:42.400 --> 0:46:44.840
<v Speaker 1>be Audible of the year. A lot of great nominees.

0:46:45.000 --> 0:46:47.520
<v Speaker 1>But look, Olivia, I didn't notice there was a strange

0:46:47.560 --> 0:46:49.160
<v Speaker 1>trend in sports this year. You know a lot of

0:46:49.280 --> 0:46:53.120
<v Speaker 1>protesters at games have gluing themselves for the core, handcuffing

0:46:53.160 --> 0:46:56.840
<v Speaker 1>themselves to baskets, all sorts of colored smoke. You know

0:46:57.120 --> 0:47:00.360
<v Speaker 1>all of that. And of course, who out one of

0:47:00.400 --> 0:47:03.399
<v Speaker 1>the better calls of one of these moments. Your dad.

0:47:03.440 --> 0:47:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna say friend, I'm gonna say dad of

0:47:05.160 --> 0:47:09.040
<v Speaker 1>the show. Kevin Harland, one of the best in the business,

0:47:09.239 --> 0:47:11.520
<v Speaker 1>just happened to be on the call for a bunch

0:47:11.600 --> 0:47:14.279
<v Speaker 1>of them. So here's Kevin Harland on the mic at

0:47:14.320 --> 0:47:17.799
<v Speaker 1>the rams Forts game with my audible of the year,

0:47:22.480 --> 0:47:26.600
<v Speaker 1>and here comes They've stopped it him playing because someone

0:47:26.800 --> 0:47:29.960
<v Speaker 1>has run on the field with a smoke bomb that

0:47:30.160 --> 0:47:32.320
<v Speaker 1>is pink and he's running up the sideline. Now a

0:47:32.440 --> 0:47:35.240
<v Speaker 1>couple of rams come over there and make the tackle

0:47:35.840 --> 0:47:41.440
<v Speaker 1>head first into the player who has taken the field

0:47:42.600 --> 0:47:44.840
<v Speaker 1>and he's in a cloud of pink smoke so you

0:47:44.920 --> 0:47:47.719
<v Speaker 1>can't see him. And now on him are a couple

0:47:47.760 --> 0:47:52.240
<v Speaker 1>of security guards. That guy is headed into the swimmer

0:47:53.760 --> 0:48:11.719
<v Speaker 1>and it will not be a good night. Okay. When

0:48:11.760 --> 0:48:14.080
<v Speaker 1>that music plays, everyone knows what time it is. I

0:48:14.160 --> 0:48:16.040
<v Speaker 1>know for a lot of people, it's their favorite part

0:48:16.080 --> 0:48:18.160
<v Speaker 1>of the show. I have so much fun because I

0:48:18.239 --> 0:48:21.160
<v Speaker 1>like when I'm prepping for work, I can say I'm sorry, honey,

0:48:21.239 --> 0:48:23.480
<v Speaker 1>I can't get the baby right now, I'm I'm prepping

0:48:23.600 --> 0:48:26.840
<v Speaker 1>for work. I'm watching Entourage, and it's been such a

0:48:26.960 --> 0:48:29.759
<v Speaker 1>joy because as you joined our show this year, it's

0:48:29.800 --> 0:48:32.360
<v Speaker 1>been a huge part of what we do, what we

0:48:32.480 --> 0:48:36.080
<v Speaker 1>talk about. Hearing all these behind the scenes stories from Entourage. Um,

0:48:36.160 --> 0:48:38.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm watching it obviously for the first time. I've finished

0:48:39.360 --> 0:48:42.839
<v Speaker 1>season five. So what you joined in August and I've

0:48:42.840 --> 0:48:45.919
<v Speaker 1>made it through five seasons, that's not bad. You're doing

0:48:46.000 --> 0:48:48.600
<v Speaker 1>you're kind of averaging like a sea a season a month.

0:48:48.760 --> 0:48:53.360
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty good for a mother of a little baby

0:48:53.560 --> 0:48:55.600
<v Speaker 1>with job and a husband who has a job like

0:48:55.680 --> 0:48:57.880
<v Speaker 1>that's and you're in a whole new city and the

0:48:57.920 --> 0:49:01.040
<v Speaker 1>whole new country, so that's really really good. You actually

0:49:01.360 --> 0:49:03.680
<v Speaker 1>further ahead than I thought you would be. Well, I've

0:49:04.160 --> 0:49:06.760
<v Speaker 1>it thoroughly enjoyed it, I've got to say. And everything

0:49:06.960 --> 0:49:11.080
<v Speaker 1>from furries to tripping shrooms in Joshua Tree to can

0:49:11.200 --> 0:49:14.440
<v Speaker 1>red carpet, all the behind the scenes stories that you've

0:49:14.480 --> 0:49:18.000
<v Speaker 1>provided have been so colorful, really fun. I also feel

0:49:18.040 --> 0:49:20.120
<v Speaker 1>like I've learned a lot about how Hollywood works, not

0:49:20.280 --> 0:49:23.480
<v Speaker 1>only through watching n trage, but through you explaining things

0:49:23.560 --> 0:49:25.279
<v Speaker 1>to me. So we've got to end with the bang.

0:49:25.480 --> 0:49:28.239
<v Speaker 1>The last segment of two has got to be our

0:49:28.400 --> 0:49:32.000
<v Speaker 1>entrage segment. So I just want to almost interview you, Jerry.

0:49:32.200 --> 0:49:34.920
<v Speaker 1>This is kind of a change. Oh wow, Okay, I

0:49:35.000 --> 0:49:38.359
<v Speaker 1>get to sit back and Okay, hard hitting questions coming.

0:49:38.640 --> 0:49:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I will say the pilot was shot in two thousand three,

0:49:41.160 --> 0:49:43.800
<v Speaker 1>so coming up on the twenty year anniversary of shooting

0:49:43.880 --> 0:49:47.720
<v Speaker 1>the first episode. Damn, I'm old, So let's do. I'm

0:49:47.719 --> 0:49:50.120
<v Speaker 1>ready for this. So I guess that is actually a

0:49:50.160 --> 0:49:53.879
<v Speaker 1>great place to start, because the show took what two

0:49:54.000 --> 0:49:58.120
<v Speaker 1>seasons to really get as popular as it did, And

0:49:58.160 --> 0:50:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I guess I'm just curious, at what point did you notice, like, wow,

0:50:02.719 --> 0:50:06.399
<v Speaker 1>this is really taking off. Well, two moments stand out early,

0:50:06.760 --> 0:50:09.040
<v Speaker 1>here's a here's a good story that's roughly around the

0:50:09.120 --> 0:50:11.239
<v Speaker 1>same time a year I think it was. Yeah, it

0:50:11.280 --> 0:50:15.400
<v Speaker 1>was like October, uh, and I was at a party.

0:50:15.600 --> 0:50:18.520
<v Speaker 1>So Season one had just finished airing. We had shot

0:50:18.760 --> 0:50:21.480
<v Speaker 1>most of season two and we're still shooting seasons who

0:50:21.480 --> 0:50:24.120
<v Speaker 1>hadn't aired yet. And we, like I said, we were

0:50:24.200 --> 0:50:27.680
<v Speaker 1>successful season one, like critically but not ratings wise. So

0:50:28.000 --> 0:50:29.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm out at a party. I used to do that

0:50:29.960 --> 0:50:32.279
<v Speaker 1>when I was like twenty four years old. It was

0:50:32.400 --> 0:50:36.000
<v Speaker 1>a party for the Golden Globes because the next morning

0:50:36.760 --> 0:50:40.160
<v Speaker 1>that's when they announced the Golden Globe nominations, right, which

0:50:40.239 --> 0:50:42.839
<v Speaker 1>in Hollywood, especially at the time, was a big deal.

0:50:42.880 --> 0:50:44.719
<v Speaker 1>So I was at a party celebrating, Hey, they're gonna

0:50:44.719 --> 0:50:47.880
<v Speaker 1>announce some awards tomorrow. So there was people from like

0:50:48.000 --> 0:50:50.799
<v Speaker 1>desperate it was a big Hollywood party. I definitely felt

0:50:50.800 --> 0:50:53.239
<v Speaker 1>out of place and like I shouldn't have been there,

0:50:53.520 --> 0:50:56.040
<v Speaker 1>but I was having fun taking all and so I

0:50:56.239 --> 0:50:59.319
<v Speaker 1>was then talking to an agent, a high powered agent

0:50:59.360 --> 0:51:01.560
<v Speaker 1>who I will not name, and it's not Ari, but

0:51:01.640 --> 0:51:05.480
<v Speaker 1>I will not name this person. Uh, but we were

0:51:05.560 --> 0:51:07.640
<v Speaker 1>talking and she's you know, she was said, all right,

0:51:07.680 --> 0:51:10.279
<v Speaker 1>I revealed it was a woman. She was saying, you know,

0:51:10.600 --> 0:51:12.680
<v Speaker 1>this must be really cool. The show is really cool.

0:51:12.800 --> 0:51:16.000
<v Speaker 1>And she said to me like, don't worry though tomorrow

0:51:16.080 --> 0:51:18.399
<v Speaker 1>like the Golden Globes. Like you guys, maybe one day,

0:51:18.600 --> 0:51:20.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of years from now, maybe you get one

0:51:20.640 --> 0:51:22.839
<v Speaker 1>of these nominations. I think she represented some people who

0:51:22.880 --> 0:51:25.160
<v Speaker 1>are getting nominated. So I'm like, yeah, that would be

0:51:25.320 --> 0:51:27.960
<v Speaker 1>really really cool if we got a Golden Globe nomination.

0:51:28.040 --> 0:51:30.600
<v Speaker 1>I hope that happens one day. Great, So you go

0:51:30.719 --> 0:51:33.080
<v Speaker 1>to sleep that night. I went to sleep late, and

0:51:34.040 --> 0:51:36.520
<v Speaker 1>Pacific time, they announced those awards like six in the morning,

0:51:36.600 --> 0:51:40.080
<v Speaker 1>and my phone was blowing up at like six o'clock

0:51:40.120 --> 0:51:43.120
<v Speaker 1>in the morning, and I look an entourage, uh, and

0:51:43.320 --> 0:51:46.960
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Dillon and Jeremy Piven all got nominated for Golden

0:51:46.960 --> 0:51:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Globe Awards. So I just remember thinking of that that

0:51:50.840 --> 0:51:53.200
<v Speaker 1>agent who was like, you know, one day gave me

0:51:53.280 --> 0:51:56.480
<v Speaker 1>the one day kid get there, so that stood out.

0:51:56.600 --> 0:52:00.880
<v Speaker 1>And then do you remember the Vegas episode in season

0:52:01.000 --> 0:52:02.960
<v Speaker 1>two with the Seth with Seth Green and all that,

0:52:03.160 --> 0:52:05.840
<v Speaker 1>So shooting that episode was before the moment I just

0:52:05.920 --> 0:52:07.800
<v Speaker 1>talked about. So, like I said, we were happy to

0:52:07.960 --> 0:52:10.719
<v Speaker 1>be in season two, didn't know who was watching. I

0:52:10.800 --> 0:52:12.840
<v Speaker 1>come out to do that pool scene with all of

0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the beauty pageant contestantsy we'll call them, and right, and

0:52:18.480 --> 0:52:21.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm wearing the next jersey. I come out and there's

0:52:21.360 --> 0:52:23.840
<v Speaker 1>like a bunch of probably like two d people in

0:52:23.880 --> 0:52:26.560
<v Speaker 1>the pool, and as I come out, they start chanting

0:52:26.680 --> 0:52:29.840
<v Speaker 1>like turtle, Turtle, And in my mind, I'm like, this

0:52:30.000 --> 0:52:32.880
<v Speaker 1>is cool. We got all these extras to like paying

0:52:32.920 --> 0:52:35.439
<v Speaker 1>two hundred extras in Vegas and the pool. That's pretty cool.

0:52:35.760 --> 0:52:38.080
<v Speaker 1>And I come over and I find out that's actually

0:52:38.160 --> 0:52:41.719
<v Speaker 1>not our people were shooting way over at this other pool,

0:52:41.760 --> 0:52:44.360
<v Speaker 1>and those were just people who heard we were shooting

0:52:44.560 --> 0:52:46.839
<v Speaker 1>who then wanted to come like watch us walk out

0:52:46.920 --> 0:52:51.160
<v Speaker 1>to set and that. And then there was another time

0:52:51.719 --> 0:52:54.080
<v Speaker 1>we were shooting on Sunset Boulevard and a school bus

0:52:54.200 --> 0:52:57.120
<v Speaker 1>full of lacrosse players passed and they saw Kevin Dillon

0:52:57.160 --> 0:52:59.880
<v Speaker 1>and I shooting a scene and the bus stop and

0:53:00.719 --> 0:53:04.000
<v Speaker 1>forty lacrosse players are like rattling the bus going victory,

0:53:04.560 --> 0:53:08.160
<v Speaker 1>like screaming because they see Kevin Dial And there I

0:53:08.200 --> 0:53:10.879
<v Speaker 1>thought the bus was going to turn over. So those

0:53:10.920 --> 0:53:13.480
<v Speaker 1>were three moments early on where I thought, I think

0:53:13.560 --> 0:53:17.000
<v Speaker 1>this is starting to catch on. Okay, that's really good

0:53:17.040 --> 0:53:18.960
<v Speaker 1>to know, and I can't imagine what that felt like.

0:53:19.200 --> 0:53:21.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, now in retrospect, you're like, of course people

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:25.080
<v Speaker 1>watched didn't know, but at the time you're probably actually surprised.

0:53:25.360 --> 0:53:28.800
<v Speaker 1>So I'm curious as you then got this new found celebrity,

0:53:29.320 --> 0:53:34.719
<v Speaker 1>like then you were going till all those stories. I

0:53:34.800 --> 0:53:37.160
<v Speaker 1>was about twenty five years old. What was the coolest

0:53:37.200 --> 0:53:40.120
<v Speaker 1>thing you got to do now in like your first

0:53:40.280 --> 0:53:44.440
<v Speaker 1>year as a celebrity. Well, going to the Golden Globes

0:53:44.520 --> 0:53:47.360
<v Speaker 1>is really really cool, like going into the bathroom to

0:53:47.480 --> 0:53:50.080
<v Speaker 1>like wash your hands, like, oh, hey, Johnny Depp, what's

0:53:50.120 --> 0:53:53.759
<v Speaker 1>going on going outside where people like smoke cigars and

0:53:53.840 --> 0:53:56.640
<v Speaker 1>cigarettes and it's you know, just it's Brad Pitt And

0:53:56.680 --> 0:53:59.760
<v Speaker 1>it's like I said, the Golden Globes are a big party.

0:54:00.080 --> 0:54:02.000
<v Speaker 1>And I do remember one year, and if I told

0:54:02.040 --> 0:54:03.320
<v Speaker 1>the story, I don't. I don't think I told this

0:54:03.400 --> 0:54:05.320
<v Speaker 1>on the show and am I. I think it was

0:54:05.360 --> 0:54:08.440
<v Speaker 1>our first year we went and we went to all

0:54:08.520 --> 0:54:11.040
<v Speaker 1>day after parties after that, and we had ourselves a

0:54:11.080 --> 0:54:13.879
<v Speaker 1>good time. And I was coming this is like out

0:54:13.920 --> 0:54:16.640
<v Speaker 1>of Entourage. I was coming back to my house. It's

0:54:16.680 --> 0:54:20.080
<v Speaker 1>like five o'clock in the morning, Sun's coming up. I'm

0:54:20.080 --> 0:54:23.120
<v Speaker 1>in my tucks. What a night, right, A little had

0:54:23.120 --> 0:54:25.440
<v Speaker 1>a few drinks and I get I get home, I

0:54:25.600 --> 0:54:28.120
<v Speaker 1>getting bit in my head just hits the pillow. And

0:54:28.440 --> 0:54:31.719
<v Speaker 1>this was pre cell phones. My alarm clock goes off

0:54:32.480 --> 0:54:35.319
<v Speaker 1>and I had to work. We add to every year.

0:54:35.360 --> 0:54:38.000
<v Speaker 1>The Golden Globes were always like our like first day

0:54:38.040 --> 0:54:39.840
<v Speaker 1>of work too, So we had a we had a

0:54:39.880 --> 0:54:42.520
<v Speaker 1>six am call time, so I had to throw myself

0:54:42.560 --> 0:54:44.880
<v Speaker 1>in the shower and eat some breakfast and we we

0:54:44.960 --> 0:54:47.879
<v Speaker 1>were all feeling pretty crappy that day, but we got

0:54:47.960 --> 0:54:49.960
<v Speaker 1>through it. That was a pretty cool. But the coolest

0:54:50.000 --> 0:54:53.719
<v Speaker 1>thing I ever got to do because of this celebrity

0:54:53.760 --> 0:54:57.319
<v Speaker 1>that entouragees brought me is courtside at Knicks games. It's

0:54:57.440 --> 0:55:01.560
<v Speaker 1>by far, it will never get old to me. The

0:55:01.680 --> 0:55:04.200
<v Speaker 1>fact that I've sat in those seats a bunch of

0:55:04.280 --> 0:55:07.439
<v Speaker 1>times is by far the coolest thing I've ever gotten

0:55:07.480 --> 0:55:09.600
<v Speaker 1>to do in my career. And if you would have

0:55:09.640 --> 0:55:11.600
<v Speaker 1>told the twelve or thirteen year old me you'd be

0:55:11.640 --> 0:55:14.799
<v Speaker 1>sitting courtside for a Knicks game, I would have thought

0:55:14.880 --> 0:55:17.160
<v Speaker 1>that's because I broke in and was it was a

0:55:17.239 --> 0:55:19.320
<v Speaker 1>protester or something, and your dad was going to be

0:55:19.360 --> 0:55:21.359
<v Speaker 1>doing the call of me running on the court. That's

0:55:21.400 --> 0:55:22.880
<v Speaker 1>how I would have thought. I would have gotten the

0:55:23.600 --> 0:55:26.399
<v Speaker 1>And that's why you got into acting, right, of course,

0:55:26.760 --> 0:55:29.439
<v Speaker 1>keep that's why I still act. I talked about Coach

0:55:29.520 --> 0:55:31.160
<v Speaker 1>k If it wasn't for those Knick tickets, I would

0:55:31.200 --> 0:55:33.600
<v Speaker 1>have retired already. I gotta get back on another show

0:55:33.640 --> 0:55:35.959
<v Speaker 1>so I could keep those Knicks tickets. Yeah, you gotta

0:55:35.960 --> 0:55:38.239
<v Speaker 1>do what you gotta do. I'm curious, just as you

0:55:38.400 --> 0:55:40.920
<v Speaker 1>went into it so green, like you've always told me

0:55:41.280 --> 0:55:43.840
<v Speaker 1>those first couple of years of entourage, you were you

0:55:43.920 --> 0:55:45.800
<v Speaker 1>were like you were green, you were raw, like you

0:55:45.880 --> 0:55:48.920
<v Speaker 1>hadn't had much success, and obviously this was a big break,

0:55:49.360 --> 0:55:53.480
<v Speaker 1>huge break. What did you learn about acting while playing

0:55:53.520 --> 0:55:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Turtle so well? Because of the nature of the show.

0:55:57.719 --> 0:56:00.040
<v Speaker 1>I I love that you say that you learned a

0:56:00.120 --> 0:56:02.640
<v Speaker 1>lot about what it's like to be an actor and

0:56:02.680 --> 0:56:04.760
<v Speaker 1>stuff in Hollywood and stuff like that, and you're finishing

0:56:04.800 --> 0:56:07.640
<v Speaker 1>season five or just finished season five, and that really

0:56:07.800 --> 0:56:10.479
<v Speaker 1>is a good look at a lot of those inner

0:56:10.880 --> 0:56:12.959
<v Speaker 1>workings and lessons of what it's like for an actor

0:56:13.080 --> 0:56:15.440
<v Speaker 1>or even just trying to get a movie made. So

0:56:15.560 --> 0:56:17.759
<v Speaker 1>I was learning a lot just on that level. But

0:56:18.000 --> 0:56:20.960
<v Speaker 1>what I would say is because I I had worked

0:56:21.000 --> 0:56:23.600
<v Speaker 1>up until that point, but never something we're like, oh,

0:56:23.719 --> 0:56:25.800
<v Speaker 1>this is good, you can shoot this for nine months.

0:56:26.719 --> 0:56:29.279
<v Speaker 1>The I guess it's almost like how an athlete would

0:56:29.360 --> 0:56:32.719
<v Speaker 1>prepare for a season, you know, preparing to shoot a show,

0:56:32.760 --> 0:56:34.120
<v Speaker 1>where it's like, yeah, for the first month, you have

0:56:34.120 --> 0:56:35.799
<v Speaker 1>a lot of energy, and then by month too, it's

0:56:35.840 --> 0:56:38.720
<v Speaker 1>like we're doing fifty sixty hours a week for another

0:56:39.000 --> 0:56:42.520
<v Speaker 1>seven eight months. So it's more about brokering out your

0:56:42.640 --> 0:56:46.960
<v Speaker 1>energy and and just staying focused and knowing that I

0:56:47.040 --> 0:56:49.120
<v Speaker 1>hate to use the word job because it's like a dream,

0:56:49.239 --> 0:56:52.560
<v Speaker 1>but there's a job for a big corporation like HBO

0:56:52.719 --> 0:56:55.800
<v Speaker 1>and millions of people are watching. So it is the

0:56:55.840 --> 0:56:58.160
<v Speaker 1>closest I've ever gotten to be an athlete of what

0:56:58.320 --> 0:57:00.520
<v Speaker 1>you have to I didn't always go out like and party.

0:57:00.560 --> 0:57:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I probably should have partied more. To be honest, I

0:57:02.520 --> 0:57:04.279
<v Speaker 1>didn't enjoy it as much as I should have because

0:57:04.280 --> 0:57:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I was so afraid of screwing up. So I was

0:57:08.160 --> 0:57:10.000
<v Speaker 1>home in bed on the Friday night by ten o'clock.

0:57:10.040 --> 0:57:11.279
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, I haven't slept all week. I just

0:57:11.360 --> 0:57:13.480
<v Speaker 1>need to sleep this weekend so for Monday, I could

0:57:13.520 --> 0:57:16.400
<v Speaker 1>be back to myself. So I probably should have enjoyed

0:57:16.440 --> 0:57:18.800
<v Speaker 1>it and went out a little more. But yeah, I

0:57:19.000 --> 0:57:21.480
<v Speaker 1>just learned what it actually takes to be one of

0:57:21.560 --> 0:57:25.160
<v Speaker 1>the top series regulars on the show. So I obviously

0:57:25.240 --> 0:57:27.560
<v Speaker 1>haven't gotten to the Entourage movie. I gotta finish the

0:57:27.760 --> 0:57:30.240
<v Speaker 1>series first, then I'll get to the movie. But a

0:57:30.320 --> 0:57:32.680
<v Speaker 1>lot of people would love a sequel of the movie.

0:57:32.840 --> 0:57:34.600
<v Speaker 1>And if there was one, and they had you guys

0:57:34.680 --> 0:57:38.919
<v Speaker 1>in now, present day, your current ages, walk me through

0:57:39.000 --> 0:57:41.240
<v Speaker 1>what you think Turtle would be doing, what you would

0:57:41.280 --> 0:57:43.600
<v Speaker 1>like Turtle to be doing, and maybe like kind of

0:57:43.640 --> 0:57:48.040
<v Speaker 1>a fun storyline for everyone. Well, I know what I

0:57:48.120 --> 0:57:50.320
<v Speaker 1>would say, but I'm not gonna say this one thing

0:57:50.360 --> 0:57:52.960
<v Speaker 1>because it will spoil stuff for you. So I'm not

0:57:53.000 --> 0:57:54.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna I'm gonna give you a different answer than I

0:57:54.800 --> 0:57:58.800
<v Speaker 1>would get that that what I think would really really happen. Um,

0:58:00.280 --> 0:58:01.760
<v Speaker 1>I think they they I know, I think they all

0:58:01.800 --> 0:58:04.920
<v Speaker 1>got kids. Turtle, I think, or at least Turtle definitely

0:58:04.960 --> 0:58:08.680
<v Speaker 1>has a kid. I think he's probably lost some money

0:58:08.760 --> 0:58:12.600
<v Speaker 1>with the crypto crash. He was probably invested a you know,

0:58:12.720 --> 0:58:16.120
<v Speaker 1>big on bitcoin at sixty thousand and now. I think

0:58:16.160 --> 0:58:18.520
<v Speaker 1>whatever money he had, he probably lost a lot in

0:58:18.720 --> 0:58:22.120
<v Speaker 1>uh in some crypto. I do think that he would

0:58:22.280 --> 0:58:27.320
<v Speaker 1>probably be doing something with music or with athletes stuff

0:58:27.360 --> 0:58:29.200
<v Speaker 1>like that. You know, I really do think that Turtle

0:58:29.280 --> 0:58:32.120
<v Speaker 1>was such a sports fan. That's also so cool about

0:58:32.200 --> 0:58:34.720
<v Speaker 1>this show and what it meant to athletes. You know,

0:58:34.760 --> 0:58:38.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot of athletes watched this show, and we were

0:58:38.080 --> 0:58:40.280
<v Speaker 1>all such big sports fans. You know, we talked about

0:58:40.320 --> 0:58:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Tiger Woods earlier. I remember watching that US Open where

0:58:43.640 --> 0:58:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Tiger Woods was on a broken leg and one and

0:58:46.520 --> 0:58:49.560
<v Speaker 1>this is again really early internet phone days, so we

0:58:49.640 --> 0:58:52.640
<v Speaker 1>were watching on like portable TVs. We were like in

0:58:52.760 --> 0:58:55.640
<v Speaker 1>between takes racing to go see Tiger Woods because he

0:58:55.680 --> 0:58:57.920
<v Speaker 1>had to play on a Monday in a playoff. So

0:58:58.080 --> 0:59:02.520
<v Speaker 1>sports was always a part of our life, right, exactly

0:59:02.800 --> 0:59:07.920
<v Speaker 1>exactly right. It's it's a it's a something that gets

0:59:07.960 --> 0:59:12.240
<v Speaker 1>a television signal, So yeah, this was Sports has always

0:59:12.280 --> 0:59:14.200
<v Speaker 1>been such a big part of all our lives too,

0:59:14.400 --> 0:59:17.000
<v Speaker 1>so that's made it fun. Well, that would be fun.

0:59:17.120 --> 0:59:19.280
<v Speaker 1>And also I don't know how much into writing you

0:59:19.400 --> 0:59:21.880
<v Speaker 1>got at the time when the movie is being shot

0:59:21.920 --> 0:59:24.280
<v Speaker 1>and everything, because didn't you write or produced one episode

0:59:24.280 --> 0:59:27.200
<v Speaker 1>of Rage. I co wrote two episodes of Roge. Yes,

0:59:27.320 --> 0:59:30.160
<v Speaker 1>not produced, just co wrote. But now you've kind of

0:59:30.200 --> 0:59:33.000
<v Speaker 1>refined that skill and that's like, I know that's currently

0:59:33.080 --> 0:59:34.840
<v Speaker 1>what you're doing as well. So do you feel like

0:59:34.880 --> 0:59:37.360
<v Speaker 1>you'd want to really, right, if there was a sequel?

0:59:39.600 --> 0:59:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean I would love to, I really would. But

0:59:42.520 --> 0:59:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Doug Ellen has done such a great job. I mean,

0:59:44.360 --> 0:59:47.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's done such a great may. I would

0:59:47.560 --> 0:59:50.680
<v Speaker 1>maybe just love to be help him with like ideas

0:59:50.720 --> 0:59:52.840
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that. I think obviously my name should

0:59:52.840 --> 0:59:54.480
<v Speaker 1>be on the script because he doesn't need my help

0:59:54.560 --> 0:59:57.640
<v Speaker 1>for that. I just wonder, you know, a sequel, right,

0:59:58.640 --> 1:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>we're just so old No, not though, and are in

1:00:04.080 --> 1:00:07.880
<v Speaker 1>their upper thirties, right, but like, could we can't be

1:00:08.360 --> 1:00:11.880
<v Speaker 1>running around and club We're like it's creepy now creeping

1:00:12.680 --> 1:00:15.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, have to just show the characters in the

1:00:15.920 --> 1:00:19.960
<v Speaker 1>relationship have aged. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Turtle definitely has a

1:00:20.040 --> 1:00:22.560
<v Speaker 1>kid for sure. I don't know if he's still married

1:00:22.640 --> 1:00:25.520
<v Speaker 1>or not. Vince's probably been married four times. Yeah, see,

1:00:25.760 --> 1:00:28.160
<v Speaker 1>this is great, I like already, I know you thought

1:00:28.160 --> 1:00:30.840
<v Speaker 1>about it. I know you've of course you think about

1:00:30.960 --> 1:00:33.600
<v Speaker 1>but we we joke on like we're obviously group text

1:00:33.640 --> 1:00:35.440
<v Speaker 1>and stuff. We we joke around. Or is it like,

1:00:35.880 --> 1:00:38.280
<v Speaker 1>do you just flash forward to like twenty years from

1:00:38.360 --> 1:00:41.360
<v Speaker 1>now and it's like our kids or the nuance, you know, Like,

1:00:41.840 --> 1:00:43.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you're there yet. I don't think you

1:00:43.520 --> 1:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>need to do that, but then we could be the

1:00:45.280 --> 1:00:48.120
<v Speaker 1>old heads. We could come in and be the old heads.

1:00:48.160 --> 1:00:50.919
<v Speaker 1>And and I don't know, I feel old today thinking

1:00:51.000 --> 1:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>that we just Serena and Federal are just retired. I

1:00:53.560 --> 1:00:55.760
<v Speaker 1>feel old. Well that's a good place to wrap. I

1:00:55.840 --> 1:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>have a lot of entraged still to watch ahead of me. Jerry,
