Speaker 1: But incendiary, but I and but a big NFL story,

21
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 1: but I gotta say this first because this is really weird,

22
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: because I want to know who would do something like this. Sure, So,

23
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: about five minutes ago, I go to the refrigerator to

24
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: get a drink, right, get one drink for your final

25
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: hour of the show, and uh, right next to the tequila. No,

26
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: and in there in the refrigerator. That was a job.

27
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: I once head, we're here late whatever. In the refrigerator.

28
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: Sitting on the shelf right in front is a halfway

29
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 1: drank Starbucks. Okay, halfway drank, except someone wrote on the

30
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 1: on the cup free. Put a sticker on the cup

31
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: and wrote free, as if to say, this is in

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: the refrigerator if you would like it, take it. Who

33
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: the hell? What kind of person drinks half the Starbucks

34
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: and that says, oh, I want to give it away.

35
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to put it in the refrigerator for someone

36
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: else to have, Like, what the hell is that? Did

37
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: you check whether there was a name? They might have

38
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: gone by the name of free when they were it

39
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: was World be Free. He came in, he's a listen.

40
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: I'm only happy I want that cup because it's it

41
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: was Freeman McNeil, That's what it was. Marcus Freeman it was, Yeah,

42
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: it was. It was Matthew McConaughey from the Free State

43
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: of Jones. If it was Marcus Freeman, I got questions

44
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: for I mean, who are doing ty shirt? Who would

45
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: do that?

46
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 2: Like?

47
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: Who would do that here? I mean we know people

48
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: that would drink your half a cup? Oh yes, yes,

49
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: I just say your company? Who would leave it? Only person?

50
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: I think it was Ron Parker. No, no, he's eating

51
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: half a chicken, just left the other half. Yeah, yeah, No,

52
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: But this is someone who went to the design, went

53
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: to the lengths of saying, hey, I want to make

54
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to give this somebody and write free on it.

55
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: No one here that would something for free. Someone didn't

56
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: just still in there. Somebody yeah, still to drink it.

57
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 1: It's literally all right. And the thing is it's someone

58
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: who's here to not I feel like like Ben wall

59
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: blancs suspect foul play.

60
00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 3: Someone someone who would re because it's still the drink

61
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,519
Speaker 3: is still icy.

62
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: It's not like if it was you know, because the

63
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: blended drink would just become all slush after or become

64
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: all just all liquid after a while. But it is

65
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: still pretty slushy. So this is a pretty recent drink

66
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: that either it's not me. I don't think it's you.

67
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: I don't think it's tie shirt because it would probably

68
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: be too much sugar in it for him. So it's

69
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: either Patrick or Moncey or Brie or Brandon. I will

70
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: say this and never came in with the Starbucks at all.

71
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: I had a coffee at twelve at noon, not neon o'clock.

72
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: By the way, I like the a coffee a coffee.

73
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: I had a coffee, all right, because I want to

74
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: know who to just throw it away. No, I don't

75
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: say that I'll drink it. It's half of my drink

76
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 1: that I can't be bothered to drink anymore. So one

77
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: of you other people can drink it. Just throw the

78
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: thing away. Man. At that point, well, I mean it's

79
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: a nice gesture. I mean it's expensive drink. I like

80
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: thrifting as much as the next guy, and I take

81
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: my daughter thrifting all the time. I'm not gonna thrift

82
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 1: in the refrigerator. It's certain thrifting things. It's like I

83
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: got a pulp fictionen. I ain't got coodie. I'm not

84
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: con thrived. That's a tasty burger, Jason, I got it Okay,

85
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: oh you did go get it? You're drinking it? What

86
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: is wrong with you? You don't know My man was

87
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: just eating bugs in the desert. He's good. That's a

88
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: caramel frappucino. I can smell it. How about that X

89
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: level stuff? You're like Bill Murray eating the baby Ruth

90
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: and Caddy Shag. He's not half bad. Don't think I

91
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 1: should drink this? No, you know what? Hey lett Okay, okay,

92
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: let the record show that I said no, I think

93
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 1: that's a bad idea. But if you but I mean,

94
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: if it's that's free.

95
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 3: It's either the name is free or they wanted someone

96
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 3: to enjoy tasty bad. Maybe they ordered to drink it,

97
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 3: decided they didn't like it. If you too rich, it

98
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 3: was too sugary, it was too much.

99
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: If you drink it and you suddenly feel like you've

100
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: gotten bitten by a radioactive spider I told you. Spider

101
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: Man kind of entices me more. I'm Preppuccino Man. Spider Man,

102
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: out of his fingers, comes the whip. Creepy Spider Man.

103
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: That was really good. He's all wired all the time.

00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: Why why are you superhero? I'm Preppaccino Man. Just have

111
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop both of you. You know, I think

112
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: this was what do you think it was? I think

113
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: it was Doug Gottlieb. Wow, Okay, Doug, Doug Gottlieb's not here.

120
00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: some gonna say that's my that's my that's my thing.

121
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 1: I've seen her. She's coming with all kinds of Starbucks.

122
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: I think it's Monzi's. We'll ask her in a little bit.

123
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: So the ratings for Texas and Ohio State have just

124
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: come in right, Week one college football, biggest game of

125
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: the week. Here's how big it was. It averaged sixteen

126
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: and a half million viewers all right, a peak of

127
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: eighteen and a half million viewers on Fox on fuck.

128
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,600
Speaker 1: It is the most watched Week one college football game

129
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: ever on any network, most watched Week one college football

130
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: game ever, and the third most watched regular season game

131
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: in Fox history. That's how big this game was. Saturday. Okay, Now,

132
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: obviously we talked about the importance of arch Manning and

133
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: again we said, I mean, it's my fault he sucked

134
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: on Saturday, because I said Friday night, what if he sucks?

135
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 1: College Football's got a lot of equity built up in

136
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 1: arch Manning having a big season. That's a big blow

137
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: for college football, and it's overall relevancy and interest of

138
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: arch Manning sucks. Arch Manning sucked on Saturday. So that's

139
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: my fault. But without arch Manning is it's still sixteen million,

140
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: probably still a great audience, but there's got to be

141
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: a few million who tuned in because it's arch Manning,

142
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: so it is the superpower of arch Manning. But the

143
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: bigger takeaway for this is, now, if I'm the SEC

144
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: and the Big Ten, I know it's something they've probably

145
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: skirted around a little bit, and it's it's been maybe

146
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: bandied about. But this is where if I'm the SEC

147
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: and the Big Ten, I say, it is time for

148
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: us to form our own super league, and we would

149
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: be the A league in college football, the Division two,

150
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: the next lower division would be the ACC teams and

151
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 1: the teams from the Big twelve, which hey, I'm fine

152
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: Caseyracuse Quinn National Championship, I don't care for second one,

153
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: and it would be those teams in the second level.

154
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: But you see that people come out in college football

155
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: for superstar football games and for the SEC and the

156
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: Big Ten. They are clearly the teams of the moment,

157
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: and it doesn't need to be something that happens for

158
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: the next twenty years. College football changes every five minutes.

159
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: They can do this for the next little bit. They

160
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: could get an incredible TV package. Every game would be big.

161
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: You would you would have teams from the Big Ten

162
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: playing their big rivals and then playing big teams in

163
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 1: the other conferences, you'd have a bigger playoffs. You have

164
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: to let more teams in because Michigan's gonna say, okay,

165
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: we're okay playing Ohio State and Penn State and Alabama

166
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: and LSU. But there's gonna be like ten teams in

167
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: the playoff right of our thirty. You're gonna have ten

168
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: teams in right, so everybody would be in for it.

169
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: It would be much more money for the schools because

170
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 1: that's where the power lies right now. And I don't

171
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: think the power's going anywhere because the two conferences that

172
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: are the safest, that are the most expandable to continue

173
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: to expand are the SEC in the Big Ten. I

174
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: think I think it's naive if they don't sit together

175
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: and have a conversation that can we do this? Can

176
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: we do the whole AKUFO Super League? From Ted Lasso?

177
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: Could we actually make this a college football reality? You

178
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: will never ever ever because these are you see this

179
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: with Texas and Ohio State. Yes, it was a lot

180
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: of big build up. Yes it's a big game, but

181
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: every game between the Big Ten and the SEC would

182
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 1: be of this level. You would get huge viewership and

183
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: if you want to talk about the new level of

184
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: college football, the new the new era of college football,

185
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: the new normal, Big ten SEC super league. You would

186
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: you would relegate the ACC and the Big twelve in

187
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 1: the Mountain West and everything. They'd be relegated to the

188
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 1: to the to the CBS Sports Network at four o'clock

189
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: on a Saturday, or the ACC network would have all

190
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: the games right now because ESPN and Fox would have

191
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: all the Big ten SEC games, and everybody would get

192
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: rich and we'd spend a lot of money to have

193
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 1: these on here. That's the future of college football. And

194
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: seeing this game right here, that's great news if you're

195
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: the Big ten in the SEC. Bad news everybody else.

196
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

197
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 3: It's the curiosity though, is does it wane if it

198
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: suddenly becomes you know, we've got this crossover event right

199
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 3: because the Inner League play was a big deal once

200
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 3: upon a time. Now you play everybody, so you still

201
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,200
Speaker 3: have some juice to the series. But you know, Cubs,

202
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 3: White Sox guys are still gonna fight in the stands.

203
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 3: I mean, that's just a normal Tuesday wednesdayay. But for

204
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 3: for a lot of this other it's it's lost some

205
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 3: of its luster to the point where it's it's not

206
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 3: even necessarily going to be the game of the week

207
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 3: on Fox or ESPN or or you know, all of

208
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 3: Apple TV on a Friday night or whatever else.

209
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm trying to get make sure I get all these

210
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 1: corporate partners and who else did I miss someone else?

211
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 1: But all of that to say, I think to your

212
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:40,439
Speaker 1: point of just this time and space, that it makes sense.

213
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: Right you're expanding the playoff. There's not a lot of

214
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: risk because that's we talked about it yesterday some of

215
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 1: the game in terms of game plan and yes, there

216
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: were some drop passes that really could have opened things

217
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: up for the stat line on Ohio state side for

218
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: saying and everything else. But you know that one loss

219
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 1: doesn't crush you, so you may.

220
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 3: Be inclined to keep scheduling games of that ILK if

221
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 3: you're going cross conferences. I like it, but I don't

222
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 3: know that I get all the big storylines that come

223
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 3: to a head like this one did. Right the anticipation

224
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 3: of arch Manning. I mean, you're still gonna do a

225
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 3: good number. Now we're just trying to figure out what's

226
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 3: that arch Manning?

227
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: Yea juice? What was that worth? Probably four million? Whatever

228
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: it is? Still talk about the top two two. But

229
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: that's the thing. Yeah, even if he's not there, arch Manning.

230
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 1: You know, he was the Heisman favorite, but now he's

231
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: a relative bargain. But all the big stars are in

232
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: the SEC and the big ten. Whether you're the quarterback

233
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: of Michigan, Ohio State, Alabama, you're a big star cam Ward.

234
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: If cam Ward am I not okay, Alabam Kalin, But yeah,

235
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: you're right, Klen de bar has got some work to do.

236
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,559
Speaker 1: But like if cam Ward played for Michigan or Ohio

237
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: State or Alabama or LSU, he would be in would

238
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 1: have been an unbelievable super duper star in college football.

239
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: As it is, he played for Miami and Miami had

240
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,079
Speaker 1: a big year last year, a lot of attention until

241
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,120
Speaker 1: that got smoked Vizier Use and he was a number

242
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: one pick in the draft. But cam Ord wasn't a

243
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: guy that we spent so much time fawning over. You

244
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: play in the SEC and the big it's just a

245
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: bigger deal. You're a bigger star then you would be anywhere.

246
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,319
Speaker 3: I mean, we did get him from PAC twelve after dark,

247
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 3: that is after dark, so you and I got to

248
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 3: talk about him.

249
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: So after dark that. But that's the case now that

250
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,839
Speaker 1: when all the stars of college football and all the

251
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: big programs are in these two conferences. Okay, if we

252
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: can make it work from a TV schedule, TV standpoint

253
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: and make our own league, and suddenly we're now negotiating

254
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: a lot of money for a lot less people. Hey

255
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: guess what, man, we got to make this happen.

256
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 3: We've talked about the super Friends years ago, right the

257
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 3: Super Conference and deciding how big that would be and

258
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 3: how you relegate everybody else, whether it would be the

259
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 3: initial thirty two or or whether you got out to

260
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 3: the full bracket of sixty four sixty eight and then

261
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 3: the everybody else gets sited and off into uh, as

262
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:07,079
Speaker 3: you say, the junior leagues. And so it's the curiosity

263
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 3: for the heads. And certainly when we look at Greg Sank,

264
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 3: I mean he pushes all the buttons right right now,

265
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 3: it all flows through him.

266
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: So if the.

267
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 3: SEC started to push the envelope on this, it could

268
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 3: get it could escalate quickly.

269
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresco exit Swallen Dome, the Jason

332
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 1: Phil Collins, the lead singer foreigner or great. He played

333
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: the drums too. Oh, it was fantastic. No, we talked

334
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 1: about this yesterday. You know, with Caitlyn Clark being heard,

335
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: Angel Reese being heard. It's been a tougher year that

336
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: anticipated for the wnben tough for you, and considering today

337
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: is the night before the NFL begins. Happy NFL leave,

338
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 1: it takes a pretty big story to get us to

339
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 1: not talk NFL for a few minutes tonight. Angel Reese

340
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: has given us that story, thank you. A whole bit

341
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: of drama that began earlier tonight when she did an

342
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: interview with the Chicago Tribune about the Chicago Sky season,

343
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 1: which has been terrible. They're awfully been eliminated from playoff contention,

344
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: an awful year. And she went and she lit her

345
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: whole team and head coach on fire in the interview.

346
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: Give you some of the quotes of things that she said,

347
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: because she has since apologized for it, but will trust me.

348
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: You got to do this drama one step at a time.

349
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 1: So in part of the interview, she was upset with

350
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: how things have gone this year with Chicago. She first said,

351
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: I'm not settling for the same blank we did this

352
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 1: year It's gonna be very, very important this offseason to

353
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 1: make sure we attract the best of the best because

354
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,320
Speaker 1: we can't settle for what we have this year. So

355
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: this is angel Reach saying my team is bad. All right,

356
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 1: we can't settle for what we have.

357
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 6: No.

358
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 1: I mean, like, look, that's a good start. We can't

359
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: do this. I don't know when saying we need talent

360
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: to come in because we can't settle for the talent

361
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 1: we have on this team. Yeah, not everybody's a star,

362
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: but wow, these are your teammates that you sweated with

363
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 1: for the last couple of years and you decide, hey,

364
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: guess what, you guys aren't good enough. She also said

365
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: the only two players that should absolutely be back next

366
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: year are herself and Kamilla Cardos. Well that's where she

367
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: uh crossed that room again there, everybody else is bad.

368
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: Me and Camilla, we're the only stars. She said. Their

369
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: head coach needs to coach them harder. Wait what yes.

370
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: Tyler Marsh, who they hired to be the new head

371
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: coach this year, which Angel Rees didn't like the fact

372
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 1: that Teresa Weatherspoon was fired, disagreed with it, said March

373
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: Marsh has to coach us harder. Okay, wow, so there's

374
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: the coach thrown under the bus. What else about this team?

375
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: Said she, I didn't think that a player like Courtney Vanderslut,

376
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: who won the title last year, came this year but

377
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: tore her acl because of her injury in her advanced age.

378
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: Courtney's not the person to come in and lead us

379
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: next year. Also said we need other players, different skill

380
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: sets because what they have on the team right now

381
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,120
Speaker 1: not quite the level of what they need, which is Oh,

382
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: by the way, Hayley van Lyth, who is her former

383
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: teammate from LSU. Yeah, this was completely on brand for

384
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 1: Angel Rees because I've said this before, there's nobody in

385
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: sports that has a bigger ego than Angel Reas. She

386
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: loves herself. Some Angel Reaves more than anybody else. Even

387
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 1: Lebron wouldn't come out and say these things and name

388
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: names about his team. No, do that. He's got plenty

389
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 1: of fans, He's got plenty of sick of advants in

390
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: the media that would stand up and do that for him.

391
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: And you don't have the cachet to say stuff like this, right,

392
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: But unless you feel like you have the biggest ego

393
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,959
Speaker 1: in sports, like She's someone that walks around every day

394
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: and just I think in her head is just I'm great,

395
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: I'm great, I'm great, and I'm great. She's wanted to

396
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: be a star, She's wanted to be a big superstar,

397
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: and this is the path she's in right now. And

398
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: you see that she is someone who has been about

399
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: herself for a long time. And you're gonna hear that

400
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: in her apology. Oh, by the way, that's called foreshadowing.

401
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 1: But this is the equivalent of someone like Anthony Edwards,

402
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 1: who has been anointed a star, maybe a little bit

403
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: before he has proven to be the big, super duperstar.

404
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 1: He was coming out and saying, Chris Finch needs to

405
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: coach us harder. The only other person should be here

406
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,679
Speaker 1: after this season is me and Julius Randall. That's it.

407
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: Other players on the team. I don't know that Dante

408
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: DiVincenzo can do it. I don't know that we have

409
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,959
Speaker 1: other players who can come and and be what we need.

410
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,239
Speaker 1: We can't go into this year talent wise with what

411
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 1: we had on the what we've had on the team.

412
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: Nobody does that. Nobody does that. Nobody says that about

413
00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: their teammates. If you want to light up the front

414
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: office for putting a bad team out there. Okay, I

415
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: get it, but you don't name names on your teammates.

416
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: This is where, hey, you should have done an individual

417
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: sport where you don't have to worry about teammates, because

418
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: this is a sport where I get it. She's been

419
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: playing basketball her whole life, but wow, it feels like

420
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 1: it's Angel recent everybody else on the team that she's

421
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,080
Speaker 1: played on, and this is the work. I mean, you

422
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: don't do this to your teammates. You know, everybody's working,

423
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: everybody's trying to win, and you want to sit here

424
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: and say, hey, it's me and only one other person

425
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: are good enough. This is like how the the star

426
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: player on a U twelve team acts when their dad

427
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: is the coach, and all the dad does is tell

428
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: the kid how great he is, and the kid says, yeah,

429
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,639
Speaker 1: my team stinks. I mean, I'm in the picture. I

430
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 1: hit fourth. There's only so much I can do. The

431
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 1: rest of my team is terrible. Like that's the level

432
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: we're at right now, where really, she just doesn't get

433
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 1: what it means to be a big team and be

434
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: about more than just yourself when it comes to your team. No,

435
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: and that's it.

436
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 3: I can take some of that statement and wonder if

437
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 3: she just got got in her head regarding where the

438
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 3: team is. Right, this is unacceptable. Back to back years,

439
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 3: you changed the coach, you did all this stuff, and

440
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 3: none of it mattered. You're still mired down onto ten wins.

441
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 3: But there's only one team behind them. Right mathematically, I've

442
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 3: tied for eleventh and then you got the Wings with

443
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 3: Page Beckers right behind them. But all of that say

444
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 3: that I think you can have that shot of hey,

445
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 3: it needs to be better. But you went and isoed

446
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 3: the players. Yeah right, calling out Van der Slute, calling

447
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 3: out you know, the guard position, everything else and even

448
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 3: the Vanderslute. And give her a little bit of grace

449
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 3: because it is a like we would question, Okay, you're

450
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 3: thirty six coming off in ACL can you give heavy minutes?

451
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 1: Can you like?

452
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 3: Okay, fine, yeah, I'll give her a little bit of

453
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 3: grace there. But then you still have the rest of

454
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 3: this team that's as assembled, and you preface it all by,

455
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 3: you know, pondering your future in Chicago before you you

456
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 3: then lit it up.

457
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 1: Said she has she wants to stay open minded about

458
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: staying in Chicago. But if things don't pan out, I

459
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: might have to move in a different direction and do

460
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 1: what's best for me. Now she is doing a little

461
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 1: bit like you always say with the NBA players, and

462
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 1: like Micah Parson's I don't want to be here anymore. Yeah, yeah,

463
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: there it is. So these are all things she has said.

464
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: These are all quotes what I've read from the Chicago Tribune.

465
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 1: After this got out, there were reports that her teammates

466
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,439
Speaker 1: wanted to talk to her about this. I have no

467
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 1: doubt talked to Angel about this, and they had a

468
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: game tonight and after the game apparently they all spoke.

469
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: No one really gave any details about what was said,

470
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: but Angel Reese did say she apologized to her teammates.

471
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: Here she is talking about what she said and expressing

472
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: some regret for her comments. Listen to Angel Reese's apology

473
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: for her interview with the Tribune.

474
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: Were you frustrated with the organization or frustrated in general?

475
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,959
Speaker 6: I don't think I'm frustrated. I probably am frustrated myself

476
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 6: right now. I think the language is taken out of context,

477
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 6: and I really didn't intentionally mean to put down my

478
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 6: teammates because they've been through this with me throughout the

479
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 6: whole year. They've busted their eyes just how I busted

480
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 6: my eyes. They showed it for me through thick and

481
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,199
Speaker 6: thin in in the locker room when nobody could see anything.

482
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 6: So I would apologize to my teammates, which I already have,

483
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 6: about the article and how was misconstrued about what was said.

484
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 6: And I just have to be better with my language

485
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 6: because I know it's not the message, just the messenger

486
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 6: and understanding what I what I say can be taken

487
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 6: any kind of way. So I just have to really

488
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 6: be better and growing from this.

489
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 1: Okay, a couple of things. Number One to say, you

490
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: know my teammates, Uh, they were there for me. They

491
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,439
Speaker 1: were there for me. They were there for me. Still

492
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: it's about her, not I was there for that. We've

493
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: been there for each other. It's they were there for me.

494
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: They were there for me, like the her entire team

495
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 1: are supporting acts in the Angel Rees Show, right, and

496
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: and that that's kind of coming through on her apology

497
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: and when she says my words are misconstrued, real, I

498
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: don't know that this is stuff that's misconstrued. These are

499
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 1: all very long quotes about what she said about particular players,

500
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 1: and and and I don't know how you can say, well,

501
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: that's misconstruct have to have it read back to me. Quote,

502
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,959
Speaker 1: we can't rely on Courtney Vanderslout to come back at

503
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: the age that she's at. I know she'll be a

504
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: great asset for us, but we can't rely on that.

505
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 1: We need someone probably a little younger, with some experience,

506
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 1: someone who's been playing the game and is willing to

507
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: compete for a championship and has done it before. That's

508
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: a pretty big quote saying yeah, we can't rely teammates. Sorry,

509
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 1: you got hurt, can't rely on you anymore. That's a

510
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: conversation the coaches have saying, hey, we rely on this player.

511
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 1: This is the This is not you, these are these

512
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: are your teammates. She's got to realize that in sports,

513
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: I mean, for someone's been playing her whole life, you're

514
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: playing professionally now and and and this is not a

515
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 1: case of hey, it's me and everybody else. Because I'll

516
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: tell you what the reality is gonna be for her,

517
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,719
Speaker 1: And this is something that's gonna really shock her, is

518
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: that as good a player as she is, she's a

519
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: great rebounder, right, She's just not quite the superstar that

520
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 1: that people want to make her out. But she's a

521
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: star and she's a really good player. I guarantee you

522
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: the conversation with the Sky having now and any other

523
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: team that is thinking about maybe trading for her, because

524
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: that's where you're gonna be at right now. The conversation's

525
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: gonna be is her talent worth it? Is her talent

526
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 1: worth what's been what goes on off the court with her?

527
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: Because this is a horrible thing that she just ripped

528
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: this team apart because of this, and is her talent

529
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 1: gonna overcome that? And the answer is not at resounding yes,

530
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: Like Angel Reese is a young play she's twenty three, terrific.

531
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: You see what she's done, all the rebounding things. But

532
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 1: teams are gonna say, is that worth it? The Sky

533
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,159
Speaker 1: is gonna say, is that worth it? Look at the

534
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: Red Sox. They traded Rafael Devers their best player for

535
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: the last five years, they've been better. Hey, auditioned by subtraction, right.

536
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: I guarantee you the Sky is thinking about this. You

537
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: don't want to go because I could sit back and say, hey,

538
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,120
Speaker 1: you want to talk about the Sky since you've gotten there,

539
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 1: that team's just gotten worse. All Right, You've had some

540
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: pretty big numbers at a big year last year, and

541
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 1: when you've been playing this year, your offensive game is

542
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 1: as matured a bit and it's gotten better. But I

543
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 1: just watch a team that went from one level and

544
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 1: has just gotten worse since you've been there. So can

545
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 1: can you really tell me that that Angel Reese is

546
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: the solution that she's going to be well sought after,

547
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: because right now you know she's not a team player.

548
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: Even this apology, you can tell I'm trying to not

549
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: take responsibility for this. Oh no, it's all misconstrued and

550
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: a mischaracters or just like I'm standing out there like

551
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 1: John Cusa, you gonna say anything. I got a boom

552
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,320
Speaker 1: box and I got my tape, because if she was

553
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: really misconstrued, the first thing you would say is whoa, whoa, whoa.

554
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: I didn't say that. That's not what I'm I did

555
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: not say this, and suddenly I'm gonna sue the Chicago Tribune.

556
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: I'm this, But instead it's I have to be more

557
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 1: careful with my words. I have to be uh that

558
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,920
Speaker 1: stuff that if you have. Everybody's got their opinions of

559
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,400
Speaker 1: their teammates, but you understand that a happy, harmonious locker

560
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: room is what wins, and you're in it. You're in

561
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: it together with them. That's a bit I wis. People

562
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: understand that more about the world, all the differences that

563
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: we have with each other, we're all in this together.

564
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 1: You should have been listening to high school musical and

565
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 1: just been done with it. Say it.

566
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:04,360
Speaker 3: We're all in together. See Manzi's on board. Let's go

567
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 3: MANSI left that you know by foreigner. Yeah, but anyway, Yeah, gotta.

568
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: Listen to the whole show.

569
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 3: But it's it's the idea that she started in the

570
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 3: quote before. It's like she starts saying, all right, I

571
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 3: need to attract, you know, and be a leader and

572
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 3: attract more talent, and this offseason, I've got to work

573
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 3: my ass off and all of this stuff, and then

574
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 3: it goes into the we can't do this, and then

575
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 3: it starts eviscerating teammate one by one because it starts

576
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 3: off great, like, all right, this is this has been

577
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 3: a tough year. Yeah, and this offseason I really need

578
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 3: to work. I want to play with.

579
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: The best, be with the best, and we need to

580
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: and then it just evolves from there and those are

581
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 1: the quotes right, pick one of them, right, that would

582
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: be the Chanle threatened against Chicago Tribune. I guarantee you

583
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: the Tribune report is gonna say I got the tapes

584
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: right here, I got it right here. I want you

585
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: want to listen to it. Yeah, you know, there's nothing

586
00:28:59,000 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 1: in any of those quotes.

587
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 3: And by the way, she's suspended now after picking up

588
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 3: her eighth technical of the year for an elbow to

589
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 3: the head. Fortunately, Caitlin Clark's not playing because it is

590
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 3: them against the it is the sky against the fever.

591
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 1: And I know, and honestly I will say this, I

592
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: wonder if she plays again this year for them. Good question,

593
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: because you only got a couple of games left, you're

594
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 1: out of the playoffs, and if she is part of

595
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: your future, there's no reason to play her. You don't

596
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 1: want to get her hurt or anything else. But also this,

597
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: this might be where you need some time away from

598
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: the team and we have to decide what we want

599
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:31,479
Speaker 1: to do.

600
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 3: But she's it's a curious space because you know, we

601
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,959
Speaker 3: can talk about levels right like we're Kramer, which levels

602
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 3: Jerry that Look, she's got a huge fan base people

603
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 3: Gallther you know, Gal runs they gather around her. They've

604
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 3: got a whole marketing line and a new shoe line

605
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 3: coming out which will sell out. Angel Rees's stuff in

606
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 3: the marketplace does very well, T shirts, you name it.

607
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 3: So it's the box off as part of it is

608
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 3: certainly there, and it's not to demean her as a

609
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 3: player in any way, shape or form. It's just a

610
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 3: if you're going to bring her into a squad, you're

611
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,560

668
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 2: I just.

669
00:32:58,320 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: I thought it.

670
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 2: I thought she was gonna say, I'm really mad at

671
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 2: myself for what I said that.

672
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: I thought that's how it was going to go.

673
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then it was like, I'm really mad at

674
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 2: myself because I didn't say my.

675
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: Words were misconstrued. What girl, No, they weren't. Not you weren't, Dululu,

676
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?

677
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 2: So I thought it was going to start in a

678
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 2: way where she was like, you know, I said some

679
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 2: things I didn't mean. I'm more mad at myself. It

680
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: was a bad day. It's just a frustrating season, simple

681
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 2: as that.

682
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: Simple as that. Right, that's the pr statement right there.

683
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: Not what you said, Angel Reese.

684
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 2: And yeah, your team's not good and maybe you should

685
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 2: take full responsibility for that. Since you want to be

686
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 2: the face of it, you should probably take the responsibility

687
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 2: and I'll put it on the rest of your teammates.

Speaker 7: to come Sunday. But Wednesday just kind of going through

766
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 7: the week of preparation.

767
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: No, just just week one. What do I care? First

768
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 1: of all, he's lying. Secondly, we'll pick the game on Friday.

769
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,959
Speaker 1: But I'll give you one big Bowl prediction for right now.

770
00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: Stream the Jets defense. They are going to in the

771
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 1: entire game in Aaron Rodgers. Look get that, okay, now,

772
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: So it's not gonna be personally for Aaron Rodgers, the

773
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 1: return he is envisioning to MetLife. The Jets defense is

774
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 1: really good, right. They're getting Jermaine Johnson back and he

775
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: was playing at a Pro Bowl level to llet hurt

776
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: last year. They have guys that get after the quarterback.

777
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 1: Will McDonald is great, you have the Williams brothers. It's

778
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 1: not gonna be a great thing because a Aaron Rodgers

779
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: is done and secondly, he hasn't really had a lot

780
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 1: of time, no big game. I'm not worried about game reps. Yeah,

781
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: I watched you last year. You were skittish and threw

782
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: the football off your back foot all the time. You

783
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: don't want to get hit anymore. Not that you want

784
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: to get it, but you really really don't want to

785
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 1: get him. Throwing that ball away before I get hit.

786
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 1: It's not gonna quite be the homecoming he is expecting

787
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: for Week one. Well, maybe he wasn't a jet all

788
00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 1: the way.

789
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 3: I will say this spread two and a half Steelers

790
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 3: the favorite on the road over under for this one

791
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 3: is five and a half points lower than any other

792
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 3: game on the Week one.

793
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: Late at a robust He's not a jetle up from

794
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: his first Ayahuasca till his last. Now, tomorrow we get

795
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:11,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and the Eels, let's go. I would love

796
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: to find a way to tell you the Cowboys are

797
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,799
Speaker 1: gonna keep this close. It can win this game. I'd

798
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: love to see that. I'd love to see it. The

799
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: best thing I can say for the Cowboys is this

800
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 1: special DraftKings pick six.

801
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 6: Right.

802
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 1: They're gonna throw the football the entire game. It's gonna

803
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: be they know the only way to get out of

804
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: this is with Dak Prescott's right arm, and it's gonna

805
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: be a big theme this season. Why I think he's

806
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: gonna have a big year throwing the football. He will

807
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 1: have stats, he will have numbers, he will have touchdowns,

808
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,120
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys will get clocked. But they're gonna throw

809
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,439
Speaker 1: from the beginning of this game. They're never gonna stop.

810
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 1: They don't have the running backs really do any more

811
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 1: than just hey, here's a run to keep you honest

812
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 1: once in a while. And Jerry, being upset with the

813
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,319
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons trade, is so pissed about what happened. He's

814
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: pissed at Dak for getting hurt. Hey, Dak, I gave

815
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 1: you all this money. You better come through and it's

816
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: gonna be We're gonna throw the football, and clearly that's

817
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 1: the best thing for the Cowboys. With three talented targets

818
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:10,839
Speaker 1: he can go get Remember Fergus that a big year

819
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: two years ago when Dak was healthy and now you

820
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: got Pickins alongside CD Lamb. Yeah, they're gonna put some

821
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: points on the board. Doak has a big night tomorrow night.

822
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 3: Over hundred for him is two hundred and forty nine

823
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 3: and a half yards over.

824
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:23,919
Speaker 1: Give me the over.

825
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:27,880
Speaker 3: The Cowboys are eight point underdogs and we're looking at

826
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 3: it over under a forty seven and a half. The

827
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 3: only two players that are favored i e. Minus money

828
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 3: to score are Barkley and Hurts. We're not expecting a

829
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 3: lot of oofed but I'm not telling you.

830
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm just saying from a pick your boy, these

831
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: two are gonna score and then like figure it out

832
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:52,760
Speaker 1: from there. Everybody else had good luck, so implied odds

833
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: going out of that, but I think they keep it

834
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: within the eight. They get that late score to make

835
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 1: it interesting. I'm going thirty eight twenty four, right, and

836
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a blowout the whole game, and Cowboys

837
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: get a couple of touchdowns, Dak throws for two or

838
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 1: three scores, three hundred yards. A lot of it's garbage,

839
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:13,399
Speaker 1: but yeah, Daily Fantasy Baby, let's go exit out about
