23
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: Actually that was that that came in and you were

24
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: long gone.

25
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: H Like I came in and his bag was on

26
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: the desk and I'm like, he couldn't even take this anymore.

27
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: It was to go find a nice sam. I went.

28
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: I went to go eat. I said, well, let's see,

29
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: we're down thirty and there's ten minutes. I'm and and

30
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 1: I think the walk Ons are coming in for Duke.

31
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go get something to eat. And I

32
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: came back and we had a lot of great movies

33
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: that were order. The Phoenix was on Return of the Jedi.

34
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: But I found Cutting Edge, And I'm like, Cutting Edge

35
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: should be every Olympics. It should be on every single night.

36
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: We should have the Cutting Edge on. It seems like

37
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: one that should be far far more popular and kind

38
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: of accepted, and especially this time of year, like you said,

39
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: with the Olympics, I know it's a big cross. It's

40
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: amazingly good. It's an amazingly good movie. It's like it's like,

41
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: you know, I like a skater boy, right, like it's

42
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: you know, I like Skater Boy because that's you know,

43
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: I like all those little guilty pleasure songs, Like that's

44
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: cutting edge, Like it's this huge guilty pleasure movie. But

45
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: during the Olympics with ice skating and figure skating again,

46
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: this is when you watch it.

47
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean. I'm a big dB

48
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 2: Sweeney guy. Yeah, so I kept waiting for him to

49
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 2: cover one of his eyes. Oh yeah, with people was like,

50
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 2: hey watch this.

51
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I really want to see the Pamchenko somewhere

52
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: in figure skating at some point you see how athletic

53
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: and how how great the figure skaters are. Now, there's

54
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: got to be a way where where the where the

55
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: male partner can hold the female partner, buy the skates

56
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: and just swing around, around around and get so much

57
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: momentum and then throw them as far as again who

58
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: knows how many spins, forgot maybe five spins, six spins,

59
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: seven spins, and you're like twenty feet in the air

60
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 1: and you land on the ice. Like at some point

61
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: we're going to see the Pampchenko.

62
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 2: Well, this is why we need a true movement to

63
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: what has been theorized for the last couple of generations.

64
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 2: Is that you shouldn't specialize really early, right, you need

65
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 2: to be able to skate and lift and do the

66
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: hammer throw like you gotta have multiple sports going on, right,

67
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 2: So in this case, you got a strong ex hockey

68
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: player would be again hockey player, not unlike you know,

69
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 2: shoeless Joe Jackson.

70
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: Come on, man with some respect on it exactly. Man

71
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: kind of a big deal is that him?

72
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: Nah? But but the idea that we we need to

73
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: have multiple disciplines, So maybe that's what comes over. Otherwise,

74
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: you know, it's you're reaching your You're like flying too

75
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 2: close to the sun. You're you're pulling a full achorus

76
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: if you try to pull that off, because as we

77
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: saw with the quad God, it can go disastrously.

78
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: But but at some point because you know going and

79
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: this is where I thought you could do this. Right.

80
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: When we went to Salt Lake City for vacation of

81
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: three four years ago, we met friends there that we

82
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: hadn't seen multification there. Oh dude, we had a great

83
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: time in Salt Lake City.

84
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: They just gave up the sun dance man and you

85
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 2: and they're gonna lose like hundreds of millions of dollars

86
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: and tons of jobs. Bad job by those Those are

87
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 2: words nobody's ever said before. No, Saltlake City vacations in Michigan. Yeah, yeah,

88
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: I vacation Detroit, Man. Salt Lake City is like is

89
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 2: like going to Shangri La. Oh, my goodness, scale one seven.

90
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 2: This is Turks and Caicos. My goodness.

91
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: Uh. So we go to Salt Lake City and one

92
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: of the things we did was a big tour of

93
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: the Olympic facility from when they had the Olympics in

94
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 1: Salt Lake City. Everything is still there. An Olympians still

95
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: train and the ski jumpers all trained there by jumping

96
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 1: and doing their tricks and they land in a pool.

97
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: It's this huge Olympic sized pool and they you know,

98
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: they come down it's you know, it's a summer when

99
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: we went and they're training in the summer, and like

100
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: they go down the they go down the ramp and

101
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: they go up and and they do their spins and

102
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,360
Speaker 1: they all they're wearing skis and they land in the

103
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: water and I'm like wow, And that's how they learn, right,

104
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 1: so they know I can do this. So when they

105
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: land when they practice actually on land, is it filled

106
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: where they have this No? No, No, it's filled with water.

107
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: It's not filled with foam. No, it is all water.

108
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: It's like they're just like get water and getting smith

109
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: into a phone party. Just said fast. So I got

110
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: to think at some point you can do the pamchenko

111
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: and you you throwing the person and they do their

112
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 1: spins but they land in the water.

113
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 2: I think if you paid an Olympian enough, yeahs an

114
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: nil deal, Sure you'll be happy to help you out there.

115
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, can you do that? Did you do this move

116
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: with me? I'll want you to do that. How far

117
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: am I throw you? Like twenty five feet thirty feet?

118
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 2: So you actually get to pay and go compete in

119
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: anything there to where you can run through some of

120
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 2: the paces.

121
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: Oh, I think they'll let you do that for free.

122
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 1: Just just showed me the pampchenko once. Then I don't care.

123
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: I don't care what. I just want to see you good.

124
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 1: I can't believe Ai has to come up with what

125
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 1: the pampchenko would look like. Well, Alan Iverson's a little

126
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: busy these days, okay, all right, Well, what's the last

00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: Hell, I show with the Pampchenko is one. I probably

Speaker 2: signed some autographs. That's literally Ai and the Squiggle.

133
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: So we'll lot more Olympics, says as we go on tonight.

00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 2: on your side, here's all the shutouts on our side.

142
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: Let's just pencil them in and move on. But we

143
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: got a big story in the NFL today. The Miami

144
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: Dolphins rebuild is on and fully going forward. They let

145
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: go a slew of players today, including two high priced ones,

146
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: Bradley Chubb and the guy getting all the attention, Tyreek Hill.

147
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 1: The Cheetah says, Cheata is coming back stronger, faster than ever.

148
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: He's ready and I've already seen all day today people

149
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: wondering what he's going to be like on their team

150
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: all the Chiefs need to go back and get him,

151
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: or the Bills need to get him, or this, or

152
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,720
Speaker 1: the Rams need to get him, the Chargers need to

153
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: get him. And seeing all of this, hey, I'm gonna

156
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: I go, Okay. This is another case of people going

157
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: back and looking at the back of a guy's football

158
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: card and saying, boy, we're gonna get a great player. Okay.

159
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill is thirty two. He's coming off of diminishing

160
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: last couple of years and a big dual leg injury

161
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: that he's got to come back from to get ready

162
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: to go. And for a guy where his speed is

163
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: his number one asset, are we really sure he's still fantastic?

164
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: That's all because it kind of feel like he's Odell

165
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: at the end, where oh man, we can get Odell

166
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: and O'Dell's Yeah, you're not going to get the Odell

167
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: the first couple of years with the Giants, right, that's

168
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: not gonna happen. That's gone right. Tyreek Kill is thirty two,

169
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: and again, his speed is his thing, and you're talking

170
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: about a really huge, multiple injured leg that he's still

171
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: got to come back from and get ready and and

172
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: and show that he's healthy. And oh, by the way,

173
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: show that I can still get open like I used to,

174
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: because yeah, I had the seven teen hundred yards season

175
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: two years ago or three years ago, but then two

176
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: years ago, not a great year again, same quarterback though,

177
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: same quarterback, same everything. Got hurt early last year, but

178
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 1: wasn't projecting to have a great year with projected out

179
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: eighty some odd catches a little bit over one thousand yards,

180
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: So you got diminishing returns from Tyreek Hill and a

181
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: huge injury. I'm okay avoiding him. I'm okay with saying yeah,

182
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: I'll go and free andency someplace else. I'll get a

183
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: guy in the draft. I'd rather draft McKay lemon at sick.

184
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to say that because that's gonna people

185
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: gonna take him over the Jets. I'd rather go get

186
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: a wide receiver someplace else than go say, Okay, I'm

187
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 1: gonna cast my lot with Tyreek Hill simply because I

188
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: don't know if he's still gonna be great because he

189
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: wasn't and now you have a big injury, and again,

190
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 1: speed is everything for him. Do we really know we're

191
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: coming back? I am okay staying away from Tyreek Hill.

192
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the curiosity of the injuries. And certainly, look

193
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 2: his usage in twenty four was different Wattle. Plus you

194
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 2: had John Uhill caught what in eighty eight balls or

195
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 2: something like that, So distribution to a being a bit

196
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 2: better and more efficient, not necessarily going for the big play,

197
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: and the efficiency that they had going downfield certainly did

198
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: drop off tremendously right when in his target count dipped markedly.

199
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: So you got that. But you're looking at a guy

200
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,439
Speaker 1: six thousand yard seasons eight with at least eight hundred

201
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: and sixty yards. To your point, I have no idea

202
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 1: what he's coming back as when we're talking about this

203
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: kind of injuries, generally straight lined guy, good receiver, once

204
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: upon a time. Great. It's really all about what do I.

205
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 2: Have to give him to show up?

206
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: Right?

207
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 2: If I can do an incentive based deal and bring

208
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 2: him in, great. I'm looking at his odds right now

209
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 2: plus two hundred to go back to Kansas City. Eric

210
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 2: p Enemy left the Bears. He's going back right Buffalo

211
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 2: plus three hundred new England plus four hundred, looking for

212
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 2: that deep threat again, is that front line top light

213
00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 2: speed going to be there? No idea proof of concept.

214
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: Baltimore at plus five hundred, and then Philly and the

215
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: Chargers at six to one plus six hundred. So you've

216
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: got some heavyweights looking to maybe overload. But this would

217
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: be totally conditional on incentives. Man, I can't guarantee him

218
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: a lot of money and say, okay, you're this is

219
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 1: the only move I'm making in free agency because given

220
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: his history, given the guy that we've watched over the

221
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: last decade, it's it's a big bet on and off

222
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 1: the field, right, there's a lot that goes in to

223
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: bringing Tyreek Hill into your organization, you know. And that's

224
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 1: the reason. Another reason why I'm passing on him is

225
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: because he's not somebody where at this point in his career,

226
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: you're bringing him in as the number three receiver and

227
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: if you get something great, and if not, it's easy

228
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: to move on. Right, in his mind, he's still a one,

229
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 1: He's still the cheetah. So I'm gonna go somewhere where

230
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: you're bringing me him an on the number one receiver. Okay,

231
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 1: So a tea brings him in as the number one.

232
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: If he's not that guy anymore, they're screwed, because now

233
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: what do you do. Oh, you brought him in, and

234
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 1: you paid him. You gave him the opportunity the responsibility

235
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: to be the number one receiver. You're screwed if he's

236
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: not that guy. So, any team that's interested in Tyreek Hill,

237
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: that's what you want to do. Hey, we're bringing him

238
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: in where we have our first couple of guys. And

239
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: if he's great, hey, we got an awesome problem to have,

240
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: and we're gonna be awesome. We're going to the super Bowl.

241
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: But if he's not, and and you signed him to

242
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: go be your number one, you're really screwed because again,

243
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: what he thinks he is coming in and what could

244
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: wind up happening. You could wind up saying to yourself, man,

245
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: that's the worst mistake we made. We brought him in.

246
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 1: We thought he was going to be great, and he wasn't.

247
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: He's got to understand that I'll go to a team

248
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: where if I'm good, they'll find a way, they'll find

249
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: a way to get me the football and everything is okay.

250
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 1: But to hold out and and and for whatever money

251
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: he thinks and for teams to say, hey, he's gonna

252
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: immediately be our number one and solve all our wide

253
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: receiver issues. You can't do that, man. That's why I'd

254
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: be great running a team. I'd be the I'd be

255
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: the cool, calm headed guy, like me being the cool,

256
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: comheaded guy. Sure, and I would say, hey, it sounds

257
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: great Tyree Kill is out there. It's not fantasy football.

258
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 1: This is not five years ago. It's not twenty twenty one.

259
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: This is twenty twenty six and things are a lot different.

260
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: I get it's a big name and it sounds awesome,

261
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: but really there's too much risk with Tyree Kill thinking

262
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: he's gonna come in and transform your team when you

263
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: don't even know how healthy he's gonna be. So I

264
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: get it's a tantalizing headline. It's tantalizing, man. It's like,

265
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: why this is great? But is the reality going to be?

266
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: We think it is. The optic of Tyreek Kill is

267
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: better than the reality.

268
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 2: Well, I give you just an alternate right off the board.

269
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 2: When we're talking about speed and game breaking ability. Rashid

270
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 2: Shahed was traded for by the Seahawks as a returner

271
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 2: and as a receiver. You saw the impact he could make.

272
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 2: Seattle's got a bunch of decisions they gotta make. Are

273
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 2: they gonna go and franchise Kenneth Walker the third? Are

274
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 2: they gonna pay him his money? Are they gonna pay

275
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 2: Shahed commensurately with what the marketplace will Because you look

276
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 2: at the other wide receivers that.

277
00:12:58,640 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: Are out there.

278
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 2: You got Hill, you got Evans who they made a statement.

279
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 2: Nothing unless you see it on our official accounts comes

280
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 2: from us. We're not talking through other spaces. You've got

281
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 2: Deebo Samuel, who's not the same guy right those years

282
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: and carrying the ball eight to ten times in San Francisco, broken,

283
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 2: Juwan Jennings, myriad injury problems for him, DeAndre Hopkins, old

284
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 2: Marquise Brown once upon a time was a speed guy,

285
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 2: not any longer. Christian Kirk is he healthy If he's

286
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 2: that guy that was that last month of the season,

287
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 2: hey let's go. But all of that say, as much

288
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,559
Speaker 2: as I made moaned the arrival of some of those guys,

289
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 2: they're all right now. Safer options than what you're getting.

290
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling you it's the optic of it is better

291
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: than the reality. Talgoes I'd be a great GM. I'd

292
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: be awesome. He's going to be an incredible JET. We're

293
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: not signing Tyreek Hill. We're getting Derek carr Man. We're

Speaker 1: coming up in it is a sad sports update for you.

379
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: We lost an absolute legend today. Like we throw the

380
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 1: word legend around there a lot, and there's lots of legends,

381
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 1: but Robert Duval a legend of legends. He is a legend.

382
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: If you had a group of legends, he would be

383
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: the legend that would step away from them. Go wow,

384
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: he's your legend's favorite legend, right, whatever you want to say.

385
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: He passed away today at the age of ninety five.

386
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,479
Speaker 1: And what a life, what an incredible career in the movies,

387
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, top to bottom, we've seen someone in

388
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: a modern day with the kind of acting that he

389
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,120
Speaker 1: has in his bag, all the stuff he's been able

390
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 1: to pull off his entire career. Absolute incredulousness at his careers.

391
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 1: And you know, one of the one of the silver

392
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: linings today, you know, losing Robert Duval, is that people

393
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: are starting to get to and appreciate some of the

394
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: stuff that maybe you forgot that he was in, that

395
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: he was so good in right, because everybodys where and

396
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: we'll talk about the Godfather. We're gonna play the play

397
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: of the day in a minute here, and you know,

398
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: all the ones you expect, but seeing things like secondhand

399
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: lions and then seeing Lonesome Dove trend which, oh my goodness,

400
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: if you haven't seen Lonesome Dove, that's the best acting

401
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: of his life, Tommy Lee Jones best acting of his life.

402
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: That miniseries was so incredibly well done. So I'm glad

403
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: that people are starting to see more people are the Judge.

404
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: I forgot about the Judge in twenty fourteen. And as

405
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: good as he wasn't Jack Reacher still had his fastball

406
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: scenes with Tom Cruise from ten twelve years ago. In

407
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Jack Reacher, like his careers and stuff like the paper,

408
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: he was Frank Burns and mash like you go through

409
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 1: I was doing it with my wife today. Oh I

410
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: shouldn't have said it like that, but we're going through

411
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 1: his creiggle. You go into his big break which was

412
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 1: which really was bou Radley, but that's a smaller role,

413
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: you know. But then he began but then he's Frank

414
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: Burns and then his career just goes right you see, Oh,

415
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: I forgot he was Oh he was so good in

416
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 1: this he was so good. He was so good in

417
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: the Paper, right, he was so good. I oh he

418
00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: was so good in Days of Thunder Right, forgot all

419
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 1: these all these movies that he that he brings his

420
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: the gravitas to his roles in. And you know, one

421
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: of the things about him that that really stands out

422
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: is that he was someone that he never rushed, right,

423
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: he never he never he never he never went so fast,

424
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: he never got excited. He never tried to over remote

425
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: unless the scene called for it. Like he was someone

426
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: that that always when when you would see him in

427
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: a role, you believed him in that role, right, Like

428
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: like The Godfather's a big one, and people talk about

429
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 1: him playing the Consigliary and yeah, some people could say, boy,

430
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: it seemed like maybe he just showed up for that film.

431
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 1: But I'm glad that that that a lot of experts

432
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: understand the understated acting that he does being on screen

433
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 1: with all those people who were hamming for attention people.

434
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: You know, when John Cazell and that was that was

435
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: a role for John Kazel, obviously, but to see when

436
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,920
Speaker 1: when playing it understated, like you walk away going he

437
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: he seems like he's a lawyer. That's exactly how you

438
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: expect someone to act in those types of situations and

439
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: where it's easy to say, hey, we're going toe to

440
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: toe here, instead sometimes pulling it back and giving an

441
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: understated performance like he's mister understated. He showed you that

442
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: no matter what the role calls for, I will show

443
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: you that I can get in and you are going

444
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: to believe that I do this for a living. And

445
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,879
Speaker 1: they're gonna they put me on camera to do this

446
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,360
Speaker 1: because hey, we need somebody who's a lawyer, or as

447
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: a baseball writer, or is a NASCAR mechantic, whatever it is.

448
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw them out there. And it looks like

449
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 1: I've been doing this my whole life. I mean, the

450
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: way he can just lose himself in a role and

451
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: just dissolve into a role is just so unbelievably impressive. Yeah,

452
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: just all the way through. I mean, you look at

453
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: the Godfather Oles.

454
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 2: I mean you've got only so much dialogue, but he's

455
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 2: on screen for five minutes at a time, and just

456
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 2: everything's in the face right, reacting to the big lines

457
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 2: and de pensiveness whatever, just all all across and going

458
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 2: through the IMDb is like in that one and that

459
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,040

Speaker 1: Now, get that out of my lag.

00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: All of those and you just keep going on the

477
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 2: Judge Widows up until the final. But I went down

478
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 2: the rabbit hole of a bunch of old interview clips

479
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 2: over the course of the day, just how matter of fact.

480
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,680
Speaker 2: There was one where he's at the table, you know,

481
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 2: they're and the actors on actors things. He's got like

482
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,399
Speaker 2: seven or eight guys there, and you got Goslings on

483
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 2: one side of him, you got Eisenberg kind of talking

484
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 2: about multiple takes, and the whole time he's just got

485
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 2: this look on his face as Eisenberg's talking about, yeah,

486
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 2: and there's forty eight of these takes that I really

487
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 2: don't think I'm very good, and he's leaning in with each.

488
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 1: Word as if to say, what the hell's wrong with you?

489
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 1: Why would you go through this? And like little interview

490
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: clips like that that.

491
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 2: Is like he was at a point where it's like,

492
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 2: I know my craft, let's just go down to brass tacks.

493
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: So it's cool to see all those secondary films gets

494
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: some run to d Yeah, he's an absolute master. And look,

495
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: you know did sports movies, did dramas, did comedies. You

496
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: know we he won finally when he won Best Actor

497
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: for Tender Mercies, Like I get why he won for that,

498
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: because he showed vulnerability, you know, country music singer, and

499
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 1: because he never had to do that. Before he never

500
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 1: had a roll, I got a show vulnerar. But but

501
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: then you saw, Oh, he's got every trick in the bag.

502
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: He's got everything you need. And it's just and it's

503
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: just so incredibly impressive to watch. Now, I got it.

504
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 1: I haven't seen everything of his because men, the guy

505
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: did three hundred and eighty eight movies. It's a lot, right,

506
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 1: he did a lot. Oh, I mean, come on, I

507
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: mean when he jumps into the seventies with Godfather and Apocalypse.

508
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 1: Now it's like, okay, we're off to the races. We're

509
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: off to the race. I love the smell of na

510
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,160
Speaker 1: in the morning. If I say that beach is safe

511
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,640
Speaker 1: to surf, it's safe to serve. Okay, all right, we're

512
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 1: gonna go surfing. It's okay. But the play of the day,

513
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: of course, comes to us from the natural Max Mercy,

514
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: sports writer who is bent and really the villain of

515
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:37,159
Speaker 1: the movie, bent on outing Roy Hobbs's story. What happened

516
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: to him getting shot earlier in his career. Remember, he

517
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: had met him on the train, and you know forgot

518
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: who he was because he didn't meet Roy Hobbs another

519
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: fifteen years later. This is the scene that becomes so

520
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: prescient and so foreshadowing of where we are now in sports.

521
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: This is before the final game of the of the Well,

522
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,040
Speaker 1: before the playoff to get to the World Series, and

523
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 1: Max goes over to talk to Robert Redford, and you

524
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 1: know they can't stand each other because Robert Redford knows

525
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 1: he's this smarmy, slimy writer who's just out for a headline.

526
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 1: And they have a conversation about the sport of baseball

527
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,479
Speaker 1: that Max Mercy covers and Roy Hobbs plays and uh,

528
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna start with Max Mercy's line where he feels

529
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: like I'm getting over on Roy Hobbs by telling him

530
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 1: something that I'm more powerful than he is. And this

531
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: is our play of the day.

532
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 6: They come and they go, Hubbs, They come and they go,

533
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 6: I'll tell you someone gonna be around here a lot

534
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 6: longer than you or anybody else around here, anyone.

535
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: I'm here to protect this game. Who's game? I do

536
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: advice anyone making a breaking that.

537
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 3: Likes to you.

538
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:43,880
Speaker 1: Did you ever play ball?

539
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 2: Max?

540
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 4: No?

541
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 6: Never, half, But it make it a little more fun

542
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 6: to watch, you see, and after the day, whether you're

543
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 6: go to a hero, he would make me a great story.

544
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: I see you around, you know, and this is the

545
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: genius of that scene. Okay, is it first of all

546
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: the foreshadowing of hey, this is where we are now

547
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: in sports, right, like, oh no, we don't a lot

548
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: of people haven't played the game, but we make it

549
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: a lot more interesting for people to listen to and cover.

550
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: Right now, I don't know about the I'm out to

551
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 1: break this guy, Like, I don't think we're doing that well.

552
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: But get back to the age before social media, right,

553
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 2: there's that mid part where everybody knew all the secrets

554
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 2: as you traveled with the team, like you were part

555
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 2: of the entourage, and so you kept your job well

556
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 2: how by keeping secrets?

557
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, also got a lot of extra treatment because

558
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 1: you knew where all the bodies were married. So it's

559
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: that weird mid speed, mid space. So that's kind of

560
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: where we are now, right. All these people people didn't

561
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: play the game, but they they're giving opinion. Well that's

562
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 1: where this is nineteen eighty four. Okay, not nineteen eighty four.

563
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 1: It was just the year nineteen eighty five and got money.

564
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: You know, it's an extension in that dystopian us and

565
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: this is forty years boy, the animals are talking and

566
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 1: they're playing baseball. So this is forty years later that

567
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 1: this is where we're at. But this, this is the

568
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,360
Speaker 1: genius of that scene. Right how he does, I say,

569
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: dissolves himself into a role. He's a villain in a

570
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,159
Speaker 1: movie that is filled with villains, right like you you

571
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 1: forget how many villains in this movie. Max Mercy is

572
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 1: the villain, The Judge is the villain, Gus is the villain,

573
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: Memos the villain. Bump Bailey is the villain. Roy Hobbs

574
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: is the only good guy for much of the movie.

575
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,760
Speaker 1: And then finally, okay, Glen Glen Close shows up at

576
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,479
Speaker 1: the end and Pop Fisher because Pop Fisher hated him

577
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:26,959
Speaker 1: in the beginning, didn't want to play him at all,

578
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: Like this is a movie filled with villains, and he

579
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: stands out so much. And that scene right there when

580
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: Robert Redford says to him, never did you ever play ball? Max?

581
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 1: And when he says no, you're thinking that the reaction

582
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,200
Speaker 1: should be, no, I never did. And it's the high

583
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: ground that Roy Hobbs has You never played the game

584
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: and I did. But this is him getting so lost

585
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 1: in the role and understanding that no, I never did.

586
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 1: But that's it, And he goes on to say, I

587
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 1: make it more interesting, and you're a god here have

588
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 1: myself a great story, like not even understanding the self

589
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: awareness that people would have going no, I never played

590
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 1: the game, Just no, I never did. But it doesn't matter.

591
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. I'm gonna break you because this is

592
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 1: how we've been battling. Not on the field. I've been

593
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: throwing pitches to you and hitting, but this is how

594
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 1: we've been battling, with you as a player and me

595
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: trying to find out your story and me trying to

596
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 1: find a way to get to you, and you've been

597
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: rebuffing me. And now we're at odds. And he never

598
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,120
Speaker 1: has that moment that you would think that scene would

599
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: call for of No, I never did, but no, and

600
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 1: I'm blowing right past it because I never played the game.

601
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter. Like That's that's what I mean

602
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: when I say he so falls into a role that

603
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: that scene comes off even better because I still don't

604
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: even see myself. I don't see the forest through the trees,

605
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: and Redford's reaction to it just to understand, yeah, you

606
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: don't get it, and you never will. That scene could

607
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 1: have should have been or it could have been a

608
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: different way if it was shot now, Oh, this is

609
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: where Redford's got the high ground, and this is where

610
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: Redford's agent would say, Hey, he's got to have the

611
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: high ground here, you know, in this movie, he's got

612
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: to really be the hero and match. It would be

613
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: a lot different, but the way it was so again,

614
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: so understated, with both of them as absolute genius.

615
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 2: A couple of heavyweights getting after it, and I would

616
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: be remiss if I didn't mention and remind folks of

617
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 2: the fact that Pop was in fact played by Wilford Brimley.

618
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: So whatever we can get Wilfrid Brimley into the show,

619
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 1: we've won. Wilford Brimley was actually twenty seven years old

620
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: in that movie. Do know if you know that or not?

621
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: How old do you think he was? Nineteen eighty four.

622
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: I don't even know if he was fifty, even though

623
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,479
Speaker 1: he wasn't. I don't even think. I don't even think

624
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: he was. He looked like he was in his mid

625
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: six because that's before the word Brimley line. Yeah, I'm

626
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: telling you man, Well, he turned fifty at the end

627
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 1: of some twist Day. So he was forty nine years

628
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: old when he was shooting that movie. He wasn't even

629
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: came out the next year. Yes, so it's the fifty

630
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: one in change. He was forty nine years forty nine

631
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 1: years old as they shot that film. Oh that hey,

632
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: rest in peace, Robert Duvall unreal life legend, legend of legends. Again,

633
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: he's your legend's favorite legend. That's how nicely done. Huh yeah.

634
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: Time how to find out what's trending in the wide

635
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: world sports. So someone who I was stunned once she

00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: told me she has never seen The Cutting Edge. It's

637

642
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,440

Speaker 5: across all platforms, its biggest audience in fifteen years and

671

Speaker 5: fifteen years ago, the All Star Game was also in

672
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 5: La so I don't know if that's like a common theme.

681
00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: you know, I hate to say I told you so,

682
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: but what we told you the game was gonna be

683
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: the game Star Games was gonna be. It turned out

684
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: to be games versus ratings. I really could have done

685
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:25,479
Speaker 1: without everything Nix related. I listen, Bronson cat come on man,

686
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: Bronson throw missing and Brnson missing that layup so Lebron

687
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: could get a dounk come on. Would have done without

688
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: all the knicks stuff. I could have done it without

689
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: all the Knicks in this story, but coming up next,

690
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,640

691

Speaker 1: gonna believe who was announced a rebuild for this year.

701
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 1: way tire buying should be. So let's talk about rebuilding.

702
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: It's that kind of time in the year. We're getting

703
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: ready to get into the off season. NFL free agency

704
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 1: is going to start soon, and we know the Tyree

705
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 1: kill is out there, Bradley Chuck us out there. You

706
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: know two will be out there soon as well. So

707
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: everybody's starting to get going and we're talking about rebuilding. However,

708
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: did you know that the biggest rebuilding job this year

709
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 1: may not be in the NFL. In fact, we're going

710
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: to have this debate, okay, because Wendy's has announced that

711
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: this is going to be quote a rebuilding year for

712
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,239
Speaker 1: them in twenty twenty six as they are closing up

713
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: to three hundred locations. Now they're not going out of business,

714
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: but they are closing up to three hundred locations and

715
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: they're going to rebuild. They're calling it a rebuilding year

716
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: for Wendy's. Take this year, rebuild and then get back

717
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,919
Speaker 1: and maybe I don't know, reopen old restaurants or whatever

718
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 1: it's going to be. So they are rebuilding Wendy's already now.

719
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: So all the Wendy's fans, everybody walking around McDonald's hats,

720
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,520
Speaker 1: Burger King, hats Wendy's hats. Hey, I'm worried. Wow, are

721
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: we gonna do this year?

722
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 3: Boy?

723
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: We're in third place. We're behind McDonald's and Burger King

724
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 1: all the time. But now Wendy's officially has entered a

725
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: rebuilding year. Now, this is just the curiosity. Do they

726
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 1: own their own land?

727
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 2: Because that was the whole thing of the founder, right,

728
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,839
Speaker 2: the whole thing of McDonald's way back in the day,

729
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 2: is that they own the land. And you roll from that,

730
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 2: go back and watch it. There's another great movie that's

731
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,800
Speaker 2: Michael Keaton. You know who is Batman getting after it

732
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 2: is Ray Kroc. But if Wendy's can recapitalize and then reorganize,

733
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,279
Speaker 2: maybe with fewer restaurants and different menu because they've been

734
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,439
Speaker 2: changing up the sizes of the menus now right, coming

735
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,359
Speaker 2: back with the extra value meals and things that were

736
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 2: so popular back in the day, trying to appeal to

737
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 2: your wallet and get you out of the burger king.

738
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 2: Like if McDonald's offered those friends toys that they're doing

739
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,359
Speaker 2: in Australia, Yeah, it might lose. I mean, that might

740
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 2: be the happy meal that you have to have. Well,

741
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 2: I think I think now you're you're trying to change habits.

742
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 2: Wendy's is more I think.

743
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: Is it more about the filling for any frenny, for

744
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: any fast food It's about Okay, let's make sure we

745
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: get the food out there. Do we really need to

746
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: be the number three burger chain. Maybe we need to

747
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: get out there a little more chicken, maybe some some fish,

748
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: whatever it's going to be. We gotta find a different

749
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: way the chicken markets, right, I'm saying. But there's just

750
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: a you gotta go someplace else, right, Oh, but the

751
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: burgers are squared. Yeah, okay, you know that's Frosty's great

752
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: and all. But however, no, Wendy, The answer is yes.

753
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 1: Wendy's answer is Wendy's Frosty is terrible. You can't you

754
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 1: can't even drink it through a straw because it's completely frozen.

755
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: It's you drink it's not a shape. Why did they

756
00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: give it to you with a straw? You're supposed to

757
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: be able to drink it starts hill, then you got

758
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: to have it two and a half hours for it

759
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: to melt in the interim, put it in the cup house?

760
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 1: You doing? Do you want to eat it? I really

761
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,359
Speaker 1: want to eat it. You can't just gonna sit there

762
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 1: and watch it because it's got like dry ice inside it. Beard,

763
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 1: that's what keeps it cold for so long. It does.

764
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: I'm just making a joke, but I mean, really, you

765
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: get the fastest man, they're product. They're gonna come after you. No, no, no, no,

766
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,720
Speaker 1: But here's whereight, here's where I wind up with winning

767
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: Wendy's over, because Wendy's rebuilding this year. Who rebuilds fastest Wendy's, Wendy's,

768
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:35,440
Speaker 1: the Browns, the Raiders, or the Jets. Who rebuilds fastest?

769
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 2: Wow, I mean if you're just looking to be fourth,

770
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:39,919
Speaker 2: I mean all of those are fourth. They're gonna finish

771
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:44,400
Speaker 2: last in their division. Who's who rebuilding? Who's rebuilding fastest?

772
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 2: Of all four of them, they'll get to six winds

773
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 2: faster than any of those. Wendy's will absolutely rebuild faster

774
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: than these three. Absolutely number one, because you have more

775
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 2: scientific proof, like, hey, we made a new burger.

776
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: It's good. Okay, that's great, or that's bad, Okay, we

777
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: need something else. We can continue to do it.

778
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're gonna test it in Rockford, Illinois and on

779
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 2: the bland ballads of our country.

780
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, my good people of Rockford. The NFL. You don't

781
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: not till you put a guy out there opening. We

782
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 1: got to wait till September and oh boy, he stinks. Boy,

783
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: I wish we'd have known that like eight months ago now.

784
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 1: But Wendy's, you could continue to rebuild and guard. We're

785
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 1: gonna put out this new kind of ice cream, these

786
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 1: new fries, these new whatever it's gonna be, and you

787
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: have a chance to do it. Wendy's will completely rebuild

788
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: before these teams will under percent question about it.

789
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:26,879
Speaker 2: And you can also do it kind of under cover

790
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 2: of night with a lot of it now closing the

791
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 2: facilities and losing.

Speaker 4: Maybe it's you make it right by that Wendy's and

809
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 4: you go straight to the next one, make a left.

810
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, But they're not that close. Not like Starbucks, where Okay,

811
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 1: make a left at Starbucks and make a right at

812
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: Coffee Bean and make another left of the next Starbucks

813
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 1: and you're there. Like Wendy's is like, okay, make it

814
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: right at Wendy's, go for about ten miles and then

815
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 1: make another left and you pass Wendy's. Like you know,

816
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: Wendy's is still I get it. They're third, they're looking

817
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 1: for a way to cut through it. Okay, we're closing stores,

818
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: we're going to reopen, We're like race track. They're rebuilding. Man,

819
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: I mean it's I I I completely understand it now.

820
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'd like to see now selfishly, so

821
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:38,439
Speaker 1: I'd like to the Jets get a quarterback. But there's

822
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 1: a better odds of Wendy's rebuilding the thing than any

823
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: of these teams getting a quarterback and winning.

824
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,440
Speaker 2: Why didn't you guys throw a bunch of stuff at

Speaker 1: dessert treat. Exit out about a Fresco exit swollen home.

868
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: Coming up next, a huge story from the NBA. This

869
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 1: is Fox. It's gonna show up for two reasons. One

870
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: USA versus the World is a pretty good format. The

871
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: newness of it. Uh, you know, the players are gonna

872
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 1: come out fired up for it to an extent that's

873
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: gonna be great. Secondly, they know the optics of the

874
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: NBA have taken a hitting the last week. The players

875
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,319
Speaker 1: are smart. They know that. Okay, with all the talk

876
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 1: is about tanking and how bad the All Star Game is,

877
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,359
Speaker 1: we like the All Star Game. We want to keep

878
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: it going. Yeah, we're gonna go out and we're gonna

879
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: give a pretty good effort. And they did. The games

880
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 1: were close. We saw great play, but it wasn't at

881
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 1: the expense of just, you know, just a clown show

882
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 1: of guys dribbling up and down the court and bouncing

883
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 1: the ball off people's heads and into the net. All Right,

884
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,279
Speaker 1: we didn't get that. We got really good basketball, and

885
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 1: we saw hard play. We saw close games except for

886
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: the final one. And it judged by success not just

887
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 1: because of what we saw and what was said about

888
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: it after, but the ratings. Eight million people watch blows

889
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: away the Pro Bowl, which didn't even get two million.

890
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:42,799
Speaker 1: Highest rated All Star game in a while.

891
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 2: Now.

892
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 1: It does help that it's you know, sandwich between sandwich,

893
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 1: sandwich between Olympics because everybody is watching NBC. Okay, but

894
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,799
Speaker 1: still you had eight million people watching the All Star Game.

895
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: We told you was going to be a big event,

896
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 1: was gonna be the best event they've had in years,

897
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what we saw mission accomplished for the

898
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:01,280
Speaker 1: NBA as get ready for the rest of the season.

899
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 2: No, that's the beauty of it is. You come into

900
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 2: this and we knew the young guys would want a

901
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 2: piece of things. Victor wembin Yama has been nothing but

902
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 2: business as related to these kind of events, and knowing

903
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: he's got new audiences every day now that the Spurs

904
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 2: are making that rotation on a larger scale, right with

905
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,760
Speaker 2: the new broadcast partners, and certainly on an All Star weekend,

906
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:30,400
Speaker 2: you also had Anthony Edwards, the unwilling co face of

907
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 2: the league that's coming up, right because and all these

908
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 2: big moments, there he is with big shots, the MVP Award, right,

909
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:39,880
Speaker 2: He's getting all the accolades and all the love. But

910
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,399
Speaker 2: he always says, no, they got Wemby. We're all good.

911
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 2: They got Wemby. But there he is time and again

912
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,279
Speaker 2: in these big spots. And you knew in one of

913
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 2: his interviews like, yeah, I like cooking the old guys

914
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 2: more or less. I took that and truncated it. But

915
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 2: it's the idea of being able to play against guys

916
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 2: you grew up watching. You're on a big stage and

917
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 2: you're having a chance to make your name. So the

918
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 2: way this was set up the younger guys versus the

919
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 2: old heads and some of them that aren't even really

920
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 2: that old. Yeah, Camlin Brunson was put in with all

921
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 2: the old guys. Well he looks older and he's not

922
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 2: very fast, that's the whole thing. But on the other side,

923
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 2: Crack from an age perspective, shouldn't he be over there?

924
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 2: But either way, the point being that the young guys

925
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 2: wanted to show out, and certainly the guys from the

926
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 2: world because at every turn they took shots at lazy

927
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 2: fair defense, laise.

928
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 1: Defense and and all of that.

929
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 2: Uh so, yeah, we got we got effort, and unfortunately

930
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 2: those guys were just gassed.

931
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,399
Speaker 1: In that final game. Yeah, look, and then that's gonna

932
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,400
Speaker 1: be something that happened. So you can you can continue

933
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 1: to tweak this. That's the best part. This is not

934
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:46,960
Speaker 1: the NBA Finals, it's the All Star Game. You can

935
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: continue to tweak the format because the All Star games

936
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: are kind of like the business that says, Okay, how

937
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: do we make sure we keep getting people coming in. Right,

938
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: Monday will be you know, you know, fifty cent wing night.

939
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:01,520
Speaker 1: Tuesday is going to be night. Wednesday is gonna be

940
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 1: you know, Mike Harmon, you know, shows you the shorts

941
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 1: that he's wought over the course of his life and

942
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 1: you get to watch them. A lot of shorts. There's

943
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: a lot of shorts and they're all purple. That's a

944
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: lot of shorts. So that's kind of what the NBA

945
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: and what all all Star games do. Hey, how do

946
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: we keep people going and get people interested to come

947
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 1: and let's just keep it going year to year and

948
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,640
Speaker 1: let's not lose all of our viewers. So there is

949
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:23,400
Speaker 1: gonna be a tweak to it. And I think they

950
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:26,279
Speaker 1: stumbled on something a little bit yesterday with the Oh

951
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,640
Speaker 1: the Stars and Stripes teams. We have the young young

952
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: players against the older players. Hey, maybe that could be

953
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: something they do going forward. Right, USA versus the world worked? Now,

954
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 1: the world got out quick. But it happens when Luca

955
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,200
Speaker 1: plays five minutes and and Giannis doesn't play, and you know,

956
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: you had a lot of d NPCDS and SGA you

957
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 1: get that. Okay, it's only gonna be You're only gonna

958
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: do so well, right, because when you have this kind

959
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: of situation, but USA versus the World works, I'm sure

960
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 1: it'll be a situation where the NBA can say, all right, well,

961
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 1: we already have it built in for next year because

962
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 1: the world will in theory be healthier and they'll want

963
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: to get back. They'll want to be some revenge. So yeah,

964
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: we build them with the same kind of format next year,

965
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 1: and then you can kind of tweak it a little

966
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,319
Speaker 1: bit and say, yeah, that's how we're gonna break up

967
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: the teams. We're gonna have the older team and the

968
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: younger team. Now, when you get to the third game

969
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: of the day, yeah, the older guys are gonna run

970
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,280
Speaker 1: out of gas. But so maybe in the future instead

971
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: of USA Versus the World, it's, hey, we have over

972
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:20,839
Speaker 1: thirty and under thirty. Right, that's gonna be the guys

973
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 1: like and that would be an awesome way to figure

974
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 1: it out. So there's certain things they've hit on on

975
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: Sunday that's gonna buy you the next two or three years.

976
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 1: Because that's the biggest victory for the All Star Game.

977
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 1: It's not that, Hey, we brought it back. The players

978
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 1: were into it. We had people watch. It's we bought

979
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: what the fix is for the next two or three years,

980
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: we bought. We kicked that can down the road a

981
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,120
Speaker 1: long way because the fans bought in. The fans like it,

982
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,360
Speaker 1: the players like it, and really, as long as the

983
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 1: players given effort, like we saw yesterday, the fans are

984
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 1: gonna forgive a lot, right, They're gonna it doesn't matter.

985
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: It's three mini games.

986
00:45:53,600 --> 00:45:53,719
Speaker 3: Now.

987
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 1: We just want to see good basketball and see them

988
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 1: play and see the best play at the highest level.

989
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 1: And that's kind of what we got. I would think

990
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: part of it.

991
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 2: You mentioned the sandwich effect, so every other year you

992
00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,160
Speaker 2: get the Olympics, so there's a help for you. But

993
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:13,120
Speaker 2: reality is that you're looking at a one year where

994
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,640
Speaker 2: there was some semblance of hate watching. I'd love to

995
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 2: see the giant pie. How we cut it up because

996
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 2: given the amount of oxygen put in coming out of

997
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, and the immediate was all right, the

998
00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 2: All Star Games coming and it sucks, let's go And

999
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,240
Speaker 2: that's all you've heard in our business, right, You couldn't

1000
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 2: avoid it. We talked about a lot of things, tried to,

1001
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 2: you know, put us the shine the light on. There's

1002
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 2: been a lot of good basketball in between the tanking. Yes,

1003
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 2: the Jazz and the pacers and those teams that are

1004
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 2: fighting for the bottom.

1005
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:43,800
Speaker 1: How do you fix it?

1006
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 2: It's a legitimate discussion at Adam Silver. As you watched him,

1007
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 2: he did that little side step back and forth on

1008
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 2: any issue. Hey, we're great, everything's good, We're gonna expand

1009
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 2: oh he keeps selling that.

1010
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: But he's like, you know, he's like, he's almost like

1011
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 1: President Snow in Hunger Games, where everything is fine the district.

1012
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,759
Speaker 1: So everybody loves the Hunger Game, you get Meanwhile, there's

1013
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: a lot of crazy ass stuff going on, but no,

1014
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 1: it's okay. And if anybody I don't like, I just

1015
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:09,759
Speaker 1: poison them with strawberries.

1016
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 2: I was also thinking he could be playing a fiddle

1017
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 2: while everything's got little mini fires around him, you know,

1018
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 2: to go historical, but it's it's just that idea of

1019
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 2: a little bit of hate watching.

1020
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: What are we gonna get? I don't know, because folks

1021
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: have their poison pens, whether it's for Lebron or KD

1022
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,240
Speaker 1: fighting his burner accounts or or all of these other guys.

1023
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 1: Like the only guy that's really got a love fest

1024
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:32,719
Speaker 1: at this point is when Minyama.

1025
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 2: Everybody else has somebody going after Kawhi for the the

1026
00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 2: no show job. You've got the the Lebron stuff obviously

1027
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 2: sitting there and just go player to player Giannis and

1028
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,320
Speaker 2: maybe manipulating a betting market.

1029
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 1: Nothing to see here, Adam Silver says, and going on

1030
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 1: and on. So I wonder how much of that was

1031
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: to see, all right, what am I really gonna get?

1032
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:55,680
Speaker 1: What kind of effort?

1033
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 2: But you've at least got something in theory for this

1034
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 2: year you come out of and go, you know, that

1035
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:03,719
Speaker 2: was pretty good. I hate that we have to be

1036
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:07,799
Speaker 2: excited as a collective basketball watching populous, and for those

1037
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 2: that are even just really casual with it that it's like, hey,

1038
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:16,759
Speaker 2: they tried. Yeah, but look but the first holl the

1039
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 2: bars said, it's like we've allowed this, this to be

1040
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,800
Speaker 2: to be a circus for the past twenty years. It

1041
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:24,640
Speaker 2: just got worse and words a little bit worse, a

1042
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:27,279
Speaker 2: little bit worse, little bit worse. But now, hey, all

1043
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 2: you do is shu up and try play a little

1044
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 2: bit of defense, play close guy. Oh hey, guess what, Hey,

1045
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 2: we kind of liked that. We kind of like that

1046
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 2: you do.

1047
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:35,840
Speaker 1: Oh so wait, so that's the secret right, Okay, so

1048
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: now you're not gonna ask us to play full games,

1049
00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 1: this whole mini games thing where so, I mean, it's

1050
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 1: it's when you can hit on something because who knows

1051
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:45,399
Speaker 1: what the world is going to be in three years

1052
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 1: with the NBA. Who knows where all Star games are

1053
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 1: going to be. You know, maybe there's a big in

1054
00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: season tournament. The All Star Game is gone, you know

1055
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: in three years, who knows, or we're taking a year

1056
00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 1: away from it because we're doing this in season tournament.

1057
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:00,080
Speaker 1: So but to buy two or three years of of

1058
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,759
Speaker 1: good publicity and we figured out the All Star Game,

1059
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 1: like that's a huge headache that is that is now

1060
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 1: off the NBA's play like they figured this out. I

1061
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,839
Speaker 1: mean really, I would love to be able to say, hey,

1062
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,839
Speaker 1: one of the biggest problems, Like I'm Adam Silver, what's

1063
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:15,439
Speaker 1: one of the biggest problems in my league?

1064
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 4: Right?

1065
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: Top three problems? Is the All Star Game is one

1066
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 1: of them? Right? Tanking is another one. Uh, but that's

1067
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,279
Speaker 1: one of the top three problems. I've just solved one

1068
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: of the top three problems for the three years I

1069
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: got on it. Awesome, awesome, I'm so happy solved. Might

1070
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: be a bit of a strong solve it for three

1071
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 1: years because it's always but it's always, it's always in flux.

1072
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 1: You have the best band aid in the world for this. Eventually,

1073
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:40,000
Speaker 1: Wendy may not care. No, but and you hope, but

1074
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,319
Speaker 1: you hope he's inspired that. You know, kid who's coming

1075
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:45,800
Speaker 1: up and not going to a fifty year of nil.

1076
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 1: It's buying. It's buying, you know, breaks for your car

1077
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 1: and getting hey, three year guarantee. Oh yeah, we replace

1078
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: them for free. If it's all right, I got three

1079
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 1: years of breaks. I'm all good. I have to worry

1080
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 1: about breaks for three years. That's awesome. I've gone back

1081
00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:59,359
Speaker 1: into my blog. The NBA is a car. I work.

1082
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't have to worry breaks anymore. I fixed the

1083
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 1: break problem. Now.

1084
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,279
Speaker 2: What was funny is going back to Saturday and all

1085
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,719
Speaker 2: the comparisons and all the bemoaning of who played in

1086
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,759
Speaker 2: the Rising Stars game into the Celebrity game.

1087
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 1: Do I know who this person is or not? Look,

1088
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 1: the game's not for you. It's okay.

1089
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,440
Speaker 2: Then you had the dunk contest and the three point

1090
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,720
Speaker 2: shooting contest. The fact that Dame Lillard's just retraining himself.

1091
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 2: This side step is kind of a big deal that

1092
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,320
Speaker 2: he comes in and wins, but good for him, and

1093
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:31,600
Speaker 2: then the dunk contest. But it was curious the watching

1094
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 2: how it was lit and how it was presented. It

1095
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,719
Speaker 2: looked a lot like the Royal Rumble that was at

1096
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 2: the end of January in Riad, where because of all

1097
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 2: these lights, you're like, is there a person in that

1098
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:45,840
Speaker 2: seeds there's a light to distract me? So I don't know,

1099
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,399
Speaker 2: and I don't care whether there's actually a warm body there.

1100
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:51,879
Speaker 2: Because we talked about it. On Friday, tickets were down

1101
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,600
Speaker 2: to maybe two hundred bucks for the night, which you

1102
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 2: could decide is agregious or not. I don't know that

1103
00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,759
Speaker 2: that's all up to you and your budgeting and your

1104
00:50:59,920 --> 00:51:02,720
Speaker 2: er teamment experience. But there were a lot of empty seats,

1105
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 2: and then certainly even for Sunday, which was a little

1106
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 2: pricier but still not bad in the three hundred levels.

1107
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,280
Speaker 2: So that's the other part is, look, it's a TV

1108
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 2: versus a live experience. I've talked to a number of

1109
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:18,040
Speaker 2: people that were at the game last week for the

1110
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:21,480
Speaker 2: Super Bowl and they basically said, well, that bad Bunny

1111
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 2: thing didn't translate in stadium because it was made for TV,

1112
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:30,439
Speaker 2: right same thing here. It's a TV show, so whether

1113
00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 2: folks show up or not is in consequential. You can

1114
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,960
Speaker 2: bemoan that that's between the owners of whether they got

1115
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 2: paid out or not. It just did they put on

1116
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:42,680
Speaker 2: a decent product. The dunk contest was fairly laughable, but

1117
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 2: overall I think they'll take the win. Except for Adam

1118
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:50,400
Speaker 2: Silver's press conference, which we could dissect every way till Sunday,

1119
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 2: the game itself actually got you a w And look.

1120
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,799
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean the dunk contest even matter anymore. It's

1121
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: really about the game itself. But that's what people are

1122
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: more upset about what they want and if the next

1123
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:05,439
Speaker 1: year though, because Steph's gonna compete Yeah, yeah, okay, that's great. Okay,

1124
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 1: again solving obviously, but he's playing horses actually doing the contest.

1125
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 1: What do you got?

1126
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,800
Speaker 4: Frostburg And the NBA does need to fix or tweak

1127
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 4: one really really big problem about the All Star Game

1128
00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,240
Speaker 4: movie that Okay, it's one really really big problem.

1129
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 1: Okay, what's that? But we'll get to Spike Lee at

1130
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:28,479
Speaker 1: another time. Oh yeah, exit out about a Fresco exit

1131
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:30,919
Speaker 1: swollen dome. Jason Smith Mike Harmon Live from the Fox
