And 13 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 2: I just I had to laugh because I am a 14 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: and by the way, so good, so good to be bad, guys. 15 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 2: I was telling Mark and Brie before the show. I 16 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: had my vacation last week. And anytime that you don't 17 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: have to be up unless you're partying, anytime you don't 18 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,400 Speaker 2: have to be up to this hour of the night, 19 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: it's kind of a good thing. I mean, I'm not listen, 20 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to bite the hand that feeds me. 21 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 2: But whenever you can sleep at normal hours. Pretty cool, right, 22 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 2: pretty cool? But I even on my vacation, I was like, 23 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: I should have done the show, should have done. I 24 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 2: still should have done the show. Still could have and 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 2: should have. Now every one of that Airbnb would have 26 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 2: hated me, hated me. But I just felt like there 27 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 2: was so much because Brie, you and I the last 28 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: time we did the show together, last time the whole 29 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: band was together. The Thunder hadn't even won the title yet. 30 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: I mean, Lebron was still undecided about his future. Oh wait, 31 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 2: that's still a thing. Wait, some things never change. But 32 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 2: there was so much that happened with the first week 33 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: of NBA free agency and then the fallout from it, 34 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: and the ended up with the Damian Lillard saga and 35 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: the Miles Turner and oh, by the way, the Thunder 36 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: didn't have to do anything. And there's still a decisive 37 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: favorite to go back to back. But well, we'll talk 38 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: about that later. And I you know, as we hit 39 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 2: the air tonight. At least based on my quick math, 40 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: we're only twenty six days away from the first NFL 41 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 2: preseason game. We are forty nine days, nine hours away 42 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 2: from the first college football game. So the Gridiron is coming, 43 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: and I really I hated missing last week, but I 44 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 2: had this question that I just I carried over from 45 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: last week because it is a problem with me and 46 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 2: I think this is a me thing.

Well, Mark, 174 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 2: how's your as we mentioned off the top, good? Day, 175 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 2: fourth of July, Mark Ramsey, where does it rank as 176 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: far as your holidays are. 177 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 6: Concerned, Well, the holidays have changed being a part time 178 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 6: employee that gets plugged in over here. I feel you 179 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 6: there so and when I have the downtime, I'm with 180 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 6: my eyes closed snapping, So that's okay. So that's the 181 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 6: part of my I could hear the bombs now right, 182 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 6: the fireworks in my neighborhood, which could take any small 183 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 6: country and in the world based on what I heard. 184 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 6: But on my downtime is sleep time, So. 185 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 2: I am, I am. I'm with you on that. And 186 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: my kids like to remind me that I don't often 187 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: get an opportunity to do a ton on the fourth 188 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 2: of July because, as you mentioned, holidays, for those of 189 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 2: us who are part times or feelings, it's a big day, right, 190 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: because our big week, whatever it might be, because you 191 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 2: can kind of make your nut just on a couple 192 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,559 Speaker 2: of days here or there. With that in mind, fourth 193 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 2: of July is like number one, number one on my 194 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 2: depth chart. I love it. And you know what, I 195 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 2: don't really know if I'm an overly big fireworksky, but 196 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: I'm a fatty So you get a chance to eat 197 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: burgers and brats and hot dogs and swim and drink beer, 198 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 2: and it's just it's all about America. But here is 199 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,599 Speaker 2: one thing that I did want to say, because I 200 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 2: don't know if there's a better thing when you have 201 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 2: a holiday that lands either on a Thursday or a Tuesday. 202 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 2: Because again, this year's Fourth of July falls on a Friday, 203 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: and next year is on a Saturday. So you're like, 204 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: come on, guys, let's get that extra day. My bosses 205 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 2: gave me an extra day off, like the third I 206 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: was off, so it was it adds to it even more, right, 207 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 2: But I feel like the fourth of July has been 208 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 2: an underutilized or at least an underappreciated date on the 209 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: calendar for sporting events. I used to love what NASCAR 210 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 2: would do on the Fourth of July weekend. I'm a 211 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: big NASCAR guy, right, don't. I haven't found a way 212 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 2: to make it overly entertaining to debate it on the radio. 213 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 2: You got the Dale Junior podcast, and Kevin Harvick does 214 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 2: a good job, But I mean, those are dudes that 215 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 2: dry like me sitting here. He's like, oh man, what 216 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 2: do you gotta think of that pit? Stop with twelve 217 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 2: to go. Let me get your calls at eight seven, 218 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 2: seven ninety nine on Fox, Like, there's not really a 219 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 2: lot of I guess, talking points unless you get two 220 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 2: guys throwing hands. But NASCAR took what was one of 221 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 2: the greatest races on the schedule, in the Daytona Night Race, 222 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 2: and they took it away from a holiday weekend, and 223 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 2: now they've made the streets of Chicago an absolute disaster. 224 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 2: I'm sure for Chicago residents that are tuned in tonight 225 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 2: because they race in the streets this weekend. All right, 226 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 2: cool that it's on the fourth of July, but you 227 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: kind of had a built in America event with the 228 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 2: Daytona International Speedway in that race, so that takes a 229 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: little bit away from the fourth of July. I am 230 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: not a tennis person, so regardless of how much ESPN 231 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 2: tries to cram Wimbledon down my throat, I can't get 232 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 2: into it. 233 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 7: Now. 234 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: We used to have someone that worked with us at 235 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Annie Zaderevich, and she loved tennis, and 236 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 2: she used to get on me when I went to 237 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: talk about tennis. But I'm like, I don't I don't care. 238 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: Everyone was losing their mind and acting like they cared 239 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: about tennis yesterday when they suspended the match with basically 240 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: you know, set point in match point and I'm like, 241 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: A cool, all right, are they in the finals yet? 242 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 7: No? 243 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: Is my ESPN A. I've got eighty six different wimbleding 244 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 2: things going on. Yeah, so I wish I was into 245 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: but I'm just not. I'll add to it the hot 246 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 2: dog getting contest. To me, it kind of jumped the 247 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: shark after Joey Chestnut won it the second time, Like, 248 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 2: what more can you do? 249 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 8: Oh? 250 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's back. He ate seventy and a half. The 251 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: closest person to him had forty six and a half. 252 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 2: That's not really entertainment watching people cram their faces with 253 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: hot dogs. It's like we as a sports society, we 254 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 2: try to find everything else, but what truly should work. 255 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 2: On the fourth of July, America, apple pie and baseball, 256 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: And I gotta give credit here. I wanted to tip 257 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 2: my cap today on this underappreciated sports today, this underutilized 258 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 2: sports day, to say I thought Major League Baseball did 259 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: everything they could to get back to the old school 260 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 2: reference here at top fold, to get back to more 261 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: people talking about it, and again, I don't know, maybe 262 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 2: this is maybe this makes me a bad talk show host, 263 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: because I don't know if there was a concerted effort 264 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: or not. I kind of tried to dig to find 265 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 2: as many stories as I as I possibly could. I 266 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 2: didn't know if this was intentional or not from Major 267 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: League Baseball. I don't know if they looked at it 268 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 2: and said, man, the fourth of July from a sports 269 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: we got, we got dudes eating hot dogs, We've got Wimbledon, 270 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 2: We've got you know. I guess you could say NASCAR 271 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 2: has kind of gone a little bit of a different direction, 272 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 2: not like I think baseball needs to worry about NASCAR. 273 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 2: Football is still ways off the ratings dominator that is 274 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: the NFL. Hew, the NBA Summer League starts, but you know, 275 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 2: the NBA just crowded's champions So maybe there's a little 276 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: bit of NBA fatigue where people are talking more about 277 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: team building than they are the actual games. So to me, 278 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: I felt like Major League Baseball, either on purpose or 279 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: by accident, had a hell of a slate for today. 280 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 2: And if you're complaining that you couldn't find it or 281 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 2: you couldn't watch it, I mean even to that point, 282 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 2: Major League Baseball said, hey, you know what we'll do. 283 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 2: We'll give you a day free of our version of 284 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 2: Sunday Ticket on the fourth of July. You know, MLB 285 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 2: dot tv had a free preview all week. And I 286 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: mean I and I'm not a big I'm not a 287 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: big consumer of MLB dot tv. It's like I've had 288 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 2: the app. But you know, I'm in a weird market, guys. 289 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 2: I'm in a market where, like four teams are blacked out. 290 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 2: It makes you no sense. What's so I live in 291 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 2: Oklahoma and we've got four teams that are blacked out, 292 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 2: and I'm not gonna spend for a VPN in order 293 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 2: to circumvent it to watch all the Dodger games that 294 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: I want to watch when they play teams that are 295 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: blacked out here. But it was awesome. I mean I 296 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 2: sat and I watched part of the Pirates game today. 297 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: I was, I watched all of the Subway series between 298 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: the Yankees and the Mets. I mean, if you want 299 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 2: to get mad at anyone, I mean, I think you 300 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 2: pull back and you you look at the expert. All right, 301 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 2: excuse me the networks, because to me, it was it 302 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: was the networks who just kind of decided to say no, no, no, 303 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 2: we're gonna we're gonna put this this hot dog any 304 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 2: contests in a full day's worth of of documentaries or 305 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 2: I don't know, slippery steps. Look at Fox who said no, no, no, man, 306 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 2: we got to get our Friday rotation of those daytime shows. 307 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: And I don't even know who controls that for Fox. 308 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 2: But to me, if you're looking at MLB, I gotta 309 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 2: tip my cap to them, because I think within even 310 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 2: the matchups, got the Cups Cardinals, which is a great rivalry, 311 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 2: you got Subway Series, which by the way, has been 312 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 2: going on since nineteen ninety seven. That kind of shook 313 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: me a little bit. So for as many things as 314 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 2: baseball has done wrong and as much as they've done it, 315 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: kind of I don't know if the term would be 316 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 2: disassociate themselves from the die hard old school fans with 317 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 2: the ghost Runner and the pitch clock and things of 318 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: that nature. I mean, I think you look at the 319 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 2: fourth of July, I mean, even look at the history, 320 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 2: look at this day in sports history on the fourth 321 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: of July. I mean, Arnie's playing the Luke Garrick speech, 322 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 2: which is an iconic moment, But we're going back eighty years. 323 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 2: I mean, what else has happened historically on the fourth 324 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 2: of July? Think about it, dig into it. It's like 325 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 2: Mickey mannle got three, had the career hint on this day. 326 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: You know, the Steve McNair tragedy happened on this day. 327 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: I mean, there's just not a lot. So on a 328 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 2: day where yeah, we're about cookouts, maybe even vacations, fireworks, 329 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,119 Speaker 2: I kind of pull back and I'm like, hey, baseball, 330 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 2: good job, all right. Now next year, let's see whomever 331 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 2: that future media partner is. If it's NBC, if it 332 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 2: continues to be Fox, let's get these games in front 333 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 2: of more people. Because I thought with at least that 334 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 2: maybe it's a first step. Maybe it's something that they've 335 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: tried to do in the past and they just haven't 336 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 2: had the right matchups. But I'll challenge anyone that sits 337 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 2: around and complains about not getting enough baseball or not 338 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 2: seeing enough baseball. If you sat and you watched the 339 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 2: Yankees Mets game today, like I did, it was freaking awesome. 340 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 2: It was a fun day. So I don't know, I 341 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: don't know that we've used or had a lot of 342 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 2: Baseball Talk on this year program. And I don't know 343 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: if we will beyond the fourth of July, depending on 344 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 2: what the trade deadline looks like in like thirty days 345 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 2: from now, but I thought for it today. I give 346 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 2: the old a for effort to Major League Baseball for 347 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 2: doing everything it could and can you know, outside of 348 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 2: getting the ESPNS and the Foxes to step up and 349 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 2: maybe put a game on in their regular spot or 350 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 2: in primetime, but I thought MLB TV did a great 351 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: job and giving it for free. Hey listen, giving that 352 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 2: for free YouTube. I'm looking at you right now with 353 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 2: this five hundred dollars price tag on the Sunday ticket. 354 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 2: You know what was great about Direct TV? Do you 355 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 2: know what they would do the first Sunday of the 356 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 2: NFL season. They'd give you the Sunday ticket for free. 357 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 2: Now that you're basically forcing me to go to take 358 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 2: out a second mortgage on my home to pay for 359 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 2: Sunday ticket, why not take a little bit of a 360 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 2: page out of the old school DirecTV and maybe the 361 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 2: MLB Dot TV book and give us a day just 362 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,199 Speaker 2: to day all right? When we come back, got some 363 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 2: football stuff to get to. We had an extension in Pittsburgh. 364 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 2: That's left me scratching my head. College football. Tonight, we 365 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 2: had a very interesting conversation here on Fox Sports Radio 366 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: that I think we need to revisit and oh yeah, Brion, 367 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 2: I've got an entire reworked Sun's roster to dive into 368 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 2: and we'll do it all on a busy night of 369 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 2: the Plank Show.

If you're into Wimbledon, it's big 377 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 2: time because you got tennis. If you love baseball, you 378 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 2: all right, So it's a regular day in baseball. Now. 379 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,239 Speaker 2: To give credit to MLB, they've tried to step up. 380 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 2: See I've always looked at the Fourth of July as 381 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: this too. It's the weekend where you can truly start 382 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: thinking about football. When it's done. As soon as you 383 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 2: wrap up the Fourth of July weekend, you kind of 384 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: get to move away from Aaron Aaron Rodgers quarterback conversations 385 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 2: overly dramatic conversations about collusion that have been all over 386 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 2: Pro football talk this week. You can you can move 387 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 2: past generated debates, right you kind of start getting to 388 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 2: where you get some evidence, you start. Yeah, for instance, 389 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna just be honest with you guys. We'll have 390 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 2: probably a little bit of a generator and I hope 391 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 2: at least to some of your phone calls at eight seven, 392 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 2: seven ninety nine on Fox tonight talking about the Steelers 393 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 2: and the extension for Omar Khan. But in like a 394 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 2: week from now, teams are going to be reporting for camp, 395 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 2: and in twenty six days we'll have the we'll have 396 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 2: the exhibition opener. You know, you'll have the what is 397 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 2: it the Chargers and the Lions in the in the 398 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame game? Is that right? Does that sound 399 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: right to you? Oh? Look, get me. Memory has been okay, 400 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,199 Speaker 2: been a little bit rough this week. I'm forgetting a 401 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 2: lot of stuff. Man, old age sucks. Probably having about 402 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: fifteen bud Heavies doesn't help too much throughout the weekend. 403 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 2: But my point is I love the fourth of July, 404 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 2: and I think part of the reason why I've fallen 405 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 2: in love with it is because it truly signals, hey, bro, 406 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 2: football is around the corner, not really an end to 407 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: the summer. Maybe in some ways, kind of the quarter pole. 408 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 2: It's like we're approaching down the stretch they come, which 409 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 2: is August, even though it's still going to be one 410 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 2: hundred degrees whenever we're playing games in late August and 411 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 2: in it September. But especially on the college side of things, 412 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 2: I mean, I live, eat, breathe college football. I live 413 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: in a market where college football is king. Don't don't 414 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: give up on me, Shady Sean. I'm not going in 415 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: on college football here, buddy. You don't have to crush me. 416 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 2: But I'll say, we've spent so much time talking about 417 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 2: everything in college sports, but the games we really truly do. 418 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: It's conference realignment. It's it. You know, Aaron and Arnie 419 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 2: had the agent for the Ojo kid that just got 420 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: a five million guaranteed contract over three years. You know, 421 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 2: I still don't know how that works with rev share. 422 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 2: I mean, they're just giving him, like, what that's pretty 423 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 2: high percent of your of your budget, of your roster, 424 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,199 Speaker 2: right whenever you talk about the salary cap. But I mean, 425 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 2: we're talking about salary caps, and we're talking about rev share, 426 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: and we're talking about still a Texas state team that's 427 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: in San Marcos, Texas that is freaking in the PAC twelve, 428 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 2: now right, I mean, make it makes sense. But we 429 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 2: finally get to start thinking about the games. We don't 430 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 2: have to debate, Oh, what's the playoffs gonna look like? 431 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 2: It's gonna be twelve teams? Sixteen to eight team? Is 432 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: there gonna be four automatic bids or just five? What's 433 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 2: it gonna look like? Who's who's really got the power 434 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: the SEC or the big ten? In your calls? You know, 435 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 2: it's just now you start cresting that hill where you 436 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 2: can see the sunlight, you can say, all right, I 437 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 2: see the sea is coming. So fourth of July. That's 438 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 2: what it's all about to me. Now, before we get 439 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 2: to your calls coming up at eight seven, seven ninety 440 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 2: nine on Fox and I see you lining up eight 441 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 2: seven seven nine nine six sixty three sixt nine, Brie, 442 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 2: I have so many Phoenix suns slash, I guess now 443 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 2: Laker related questions for you. But before we dive into 444 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 2: like the post Durant era, which boy Kevin Durant's left 445 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 2: a couple of places where you just ugh, you obviously, 446 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 2: this is the anniversary. We are, what nine years, ten 447 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 2: years since Kevin Durant left Oklahoma City for Golden State, 448 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 2: and he won a couple of titles, but ten years later, look, okay, 449 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 2: soe just won a title. Whenever. We've kind of left 450 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 2: them for dead the decade after he left. But he's 451 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,959 Speaker 2: out in Brooklyn and now in Phoenix. It's not the 452 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 2: most glowing reviews of his time there.

It's coming 506 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 3: to la it's gonna be oh my gosh. 507 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 4: You know how many video game conventions are going to 508 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 4: come into town, and he's just gonna be there and 509 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 4: he's not gonna show up to practice. He's the most 510 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 4: inconsistent basketball player I think has ever lived. 511 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 6: Like, honestly, I I kind of thought that. 512 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 2: The change of scenery might be a good thing. Okay, 513 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 2: so no, no, no, I'm not. But then I started 514 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 2: reading a little bit and I was like, I get to, 515 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 2: I get to I can't wait to hear what Brie 516 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 2: has to say on Friday Night. It's and then everyone's like, well, 517 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: just wait till he gets around Lebron James and that 518 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 2: work ethic. And then now and you're like, well, is 519 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: Lebron even gonna be there? And I mean, what's his work? 520 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 2: I'll never question Lebron james work ethic by any stretch 521 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,239 Speaker 2: of the imagination. But I mean, you've already got Rich 522 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 2: Paul with the passive aggressive, you know kind of comments 523 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 2: that are out there about his futures. So I don't know, man. 524 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 2: I still think it's wild that Lebron has played with 525 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 2: nine first overall picks in the NBA draft. That's pretty wild, 526 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 2: and at different times in their careers. You know, Shack 527 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 2: whatever he played with the mc cleveland was not the 528 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 2: same Shack that was the number one overall pick by 529 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 2: the Magic. But I guess what I realized more than 530 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 2: anything else is you're not bringing in even if I 531 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 2: use the term prime DeAndre eight, and you're not bringing 532 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 2: in the number one overall pick in the draft. You're 533 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 2: bringing in a dude that I mean, he missed a 534 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 2: game because he couldn't get out of his driveway whenever 535 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 2: he was snowed in, and everyone's like, hey, we're gonna 536 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 2: come get you. We got She's like, no, man, I'm 537 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 2: snowed in. You can't get me, so don't. I don't 538 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 2: know what to make And you mentioned that apparently he's 539 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 2: got this addiction and I just use that term probably 540 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 2: unfairly to video games, right, But you're not saying we 541 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 2: should be overly excited. It's like your fans with this. 542 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 4: No and it's like, oh what you know what Jackson 543 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 4: hates is just so bad, So we're just so excited. 544 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 4: And I'm like, okay, that's so. That's the that's the comparison. Yeah, 545 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 4: that's that's where you're trying to convince yourself. 546 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 3: Of Jackson Hayes is just so bad. So it's just 547 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 3: so excited. And it's eight million dollars, it doesn't mean anything. 548 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 4: It's like, okay, he's still a roster spot though it 549 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 4: doesn't matter. It's eight million dollars. 550 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 3: It's like nothing. I think it's the mle or whatever. 551 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 4: But I don't know. I just I'm excited. I'm excited 552 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 4: to see the chaos that's gonna come out of it. 553 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 2: Well, listen, here's the thing. Let's be very clear here, Breeze. 554 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 2: Excitement Laker fans is much different than your excitement. Her 555 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 2: excitement is to watch it burn to the. 556 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 3: Ground, to the ground. 557 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 4: And I'm not usually that kind of person, Chris, I'm 558 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 4: really not. 559 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: I really am not. But I think just watching it 560 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 3: from the beginning of people like, oh wow, oh wow, 561 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 3: he's getting bought out by Portland. Wow, he's gonna come 562 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 3: to La Okay, here we go. 563 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 4: And then it's like and then it happens, I'm like, 564 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 4: oh my god, you. 565 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: Guys are excited about this, Like, really, you. 566 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 4: Think that the purple and gold is just he's gonna 567 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 4: walk in and then he's magically gonna gain a work ethic. Okay, 568 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 4: you got it, you got it. I just I can't 569 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 4: wait to see it not come into play. But i'd 570 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 4: be okay, just because like the whole JJ Reddick thing too. 571 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 4: I guess maybe that's also it's being kind of a 572 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 4: hard ass. Yeah, he's gonna look at DeAndre Ayton and 573 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,399 Speaker 4: be like my son's teammates, the eight year old. My 574 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 4: eight year old son's teammates play harder than him. He's 575 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 4: gonna wish he was back in Brooklyn coaching his son's players. 576 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 3: Like, I don't know, that's just me, that's. 577 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 2: My thing, I think. So I get odds. There's different 578 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 2: sports books that every single time there's a major story, 579 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 2: their goal is to have you to talk about them, 580 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: So they'll send out these odds and these stories to you. 581 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: So moving real quick before we grab a break, and 582 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 2: then it sure, guys calls the rest of the hour 583 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: and the rest of the morning at eight seven, seven 584 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 2: ninety nine on Fox. I got odds in the inbox 585 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 2: late last week, well actually it was early this week 586 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 2: on Lebron James Next landing spot. And I found it 587 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: interesting because, like I thought, the opting in with the 588 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: fifty two million dollars this year should have been in 589 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: ball games, like, hey, you're in, You're good. And then 590 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, it's like, well he wants to 591 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 2: play for a championship. Well I don't about you, guys. 592 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 2: You know, I understand now we've reached this point in 593 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 2: sports where we go ahead, and I love Jeff Schwartz, 594 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 2: but he's as guilty as anyone. You're ending team's chances 595 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 2: at doing anything before the season even starts. Well, the 596 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: Steelers are't gonna win anything this year. It's like, well, 597 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you never know, well, you're not gonna do 598 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: And Arnie's very good. I work with Arnie all the time. 599 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: He's very guilty of this. And we're seeing it a 600 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 2: lot in the NBA. And maybe it's a little different 601 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 2: this year with the injuries to Jason Tatum and what 602 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 2: we've seen now with Tyreez Haliburton, or maybe Indy and 603 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 2: Boston maybe heading for a bit of a soft reset 604 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 2: in twenty five twenty six. But I know the West 605 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 2: is tough. But if you have a team that has 606 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 2: Luca and Lebron, we saw what they became when they 607 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: got to play together for not even a full half 608 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 2: of a season and they got knocked out by the 609 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 2: t Wolves, who got harassed and embarrassed by the thunder. 610 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 2: But it's still Shaney. You get a pretty good big 611 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 2: in there, and I think they've got something. So people 612 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 2: and even you know, you got the agent who comes 613 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 2: out and says, well, he wants to compete for a championship. 614 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 2: I'm not counting out anyone right now. I mean, hell, guys, 615 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 2: the thunder were the one seat last year, didn't even 616 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 2: play on Christmas. This year, they had the greatest regular 617 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 2: season we've seen this side of Steph Curry whenever he 618 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 2: was in his prime, and they win the title. No 619 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 2: one was picking. Okay, see, before the season started, no 620 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 2: one was. They had great odds. But if you look 621 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 2: at any expert, I don't think you'd find many they 622 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 2: were saying, okay, see, he's gonna win the title. Everyone 623 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 2: liked their roster, but no one was picking him to 624 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 2: win the title. Now, all of a sudden, we look 625 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 2: at Lebron and Luca like, well, you know, we know 626 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 2: the Lakers are building for the future. No, bro, you 627 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: don't build for the future in Los Angeles. You gotta 628 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 2: win now. And so that's why when that quote came 629 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 2: out from Rich Paul, I was a little bit taken aback. 630 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 2: And also, you know, you opt in for fifty two mil. 631 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 2: I don't really know if you care too much about 632 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 2: building the rest of the roster. But to the point, 633 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 2: sports Betting Dot Ag sent me the list of Lebron's 634 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:18,239 Speaker 2: next team odds and I found it interesting in the 635 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 2: first five I guess you could say opportunities. The Mavericks 636 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 2: were the odds on favorite at five to two, which 637 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: would basically be getting the old twenty twenty Lakers back 638 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 2: together with a sprinkle of Kyrie Irving depending on when 639 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 2: he's going to be back. And yes, Cooper Flagg, who 640 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 2: is the greatest thing that we've ever seen in the 641 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,360 Speaker 2: history of the NBA before he ever, you know, plays 642 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 2: a minute an I'm not hating. I think he's going 643 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 2: to be really special. But let's see it. Everyone told 644 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 2: me that Victor wimbin Yama was going to take over 645 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 2: the league. Haven't seen it yet. The Calves are the 646 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 2: second pick at four to one, and tonight we have 647 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 2: pictures surfacing of Lebron visiting the Calves practice facility. But Cleveland, 648 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 2: I don't think they can really make it work financially. 649 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 2: But every time I hear that something can't work financially, 650 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 2: guess what it magically does? It works. The Warriors are 651 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 2: the third choice at five to one, with the Knicks 652 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 2: at six to one, and according to this from sports 653 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 2: betting dot Age, the fifth pick are the fifth best 654 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,959 Speaker 2: odds to land Lebron James the San Antonio Spurs at 655 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 2: eight to one. Now it's interesting. Bill Simmons came up 656 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 2: with some of his infamous mock trades, and he brought 657 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: up maybe a straight up swap Lebron for Karl Anthony Towns, 658 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 2: which I think could be a fascinating shift. And then 659 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 2: the other one was Lebron straight up for Kawhi Leonard, 660 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 2: which I think the Clippers might actually say no to. 661 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 2: But this is we're seeing something we've never seen before. 662 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: Lebron James is playing in a contract year. This has 663 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 2: never happened in his career. I don't know if I 664 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: buy would And I can't disagree with Brian Windhorse because 665 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 2: he's right so much. But Brie, you're telling me that 666 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 2: the Lakers are just looking at Lebron as an expiring 667 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 2: contract right now? Come on, that can't be the case, 668 00:32:59,480 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: can it. 669 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 3: I don't think so. I don't think so at all. 670 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 671 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 2: I just I don't understand. Everything is calculated because Rich 672 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,239 Speaker 2: Paul and Lebron James knows how the media is going 673 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 2: to spend anything that they say. But to me, when 674 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 2: you say, hey, we got to see him commitment to 675 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 2: play for a championship. But you guys went into last 676 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 2: year is what the two seed, three seed in the playoffs. 677 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 2: I mean, that's not bad. So I just felt like 678 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 2: that was one of the most passive aggressive bs things 679 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 2: I've seen in a long time. And everyone eats it 680 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 2: up because it's Lebron and Rich Paul and you're either 681 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 2: committed to the Lakers or you're gone. You got to 682 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 2: move on. If you're LA. It's not the Lakers fault. 683 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: It adds to that level of disdain and dismay for 684 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 2: the way that Lebron allows things to play out in public. 685 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 2: The dude can squash, I'm sorry, quash all of this 686 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: with either a simple tweet or a simple statement, Hey man, 687 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 2: you guys got to cut this out. Rich Paul said, 688 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 2: I understand, but I ain't going anywhere. I'm committed to 689 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 2: the Lakers. Guess what. He hasn't done any of that. 690 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 2: Some might say, well, he doesn't know that, to us, 691 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 2: you bet your ass he does, especially whenever you have 692 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 2: your agent coming out with comments like that. And Rich 693 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: Paul's the man, he can do whatever he wants. But 694 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 2: now all of a sudden, he's like oh, you know, 695 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 2: you opted it for fifty two mil. But he's got 696 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 2: to see you commit to go win a title. I mean, 697 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 2: I don't know what the Luca trade look like to you, 698 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 2: but it looked like a team that's committed to try 699 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 2: to be relevant for a long time after you retire. 700 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 2: All right, get a break, Get your calls coming up. 701 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 2: I see you Line, do I see a drom, I 702 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 2: see you Tony.

Anyway, 765 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you something, jerm It shows you how 766 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 2: drunk right now people are for Shay Gil just Alexander 767 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 2: in the state of Oklahoma to where the dude got 768 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 2: the richest contract that you could ever receive from a 769 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 2: per year basis, and the response is he could have 770 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 2: been more, could have paid him more if you would 771 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 2: to wait another year. I'm like, hey, I have calmed down. 772 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 2: I mean, Oklahoma City is going to be in a 773 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 2: spot where they got to pay Jalen Williams, they got 774 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 2: to pay chet Holme Grin, and they're gonna have decisions 775 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: to make, and the way that it looks right now, 776 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 2: they're not afraid to get into whatever extra Apron needs 777 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 2: to be towed into in order to make sure that 778 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 2: you keep your core together. I'm with you, though, on 779 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 2: the defensive mindset of the Lakers. That's what got him 780 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 2: beat against Minnesota. You know you can. I've always been 781 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 2: a believer that I would be a terrible basketball coach, 782 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 2: not only because I suck at basketball, but because I 783 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 2: would go into any press conference and when they would 784 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 2: ask why didn't you win? My answer would be, we 785 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 2: didn't make shots? Oh really, so what happened? We missed shots? 786 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 2: I mean, shot making, to me is the ultimate key 787 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 2: to winning in basketball. But you gotta be able to 788 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: play some defense when you're not making shots, and the 789 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,839 Speaker 2: Lakers did not show the ability to consistently do that. 790 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 2: They made Rudy Gobert look like Kream Abdul Jabbar whenever 791 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 2: he was playing against and they got to get better 792 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 2: on that front. They haven't really made a time. In fact, 793 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,359 Speaker 2: they let their best defensive player slip away and drin 794 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 2: Finney Smith, which made no sense to me whatsoever. But 795 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 2: I'm with you. That's where the Lakers have got to 796 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 2: be better. But I gotta tell you something. I wonder 797 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 2: how much of this from Rich Paul. I wonder how 798 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 2: much of this is because A, he hasn't had the 799 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 2: warm and fuzzies from the Lakers that he would want, 800 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 2: and and B maybe the Lakers are kind of pushing 801 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 2: it a little bit, saying, man, you know, there might 802 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,360 Speaker 2: be some options out there for us, if you guys 803 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 2: want to look at New York or maybe the Clippers 804 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,240 Speaker 2: or what I mean. I don't know. It just seemed 805 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 2: odd to go from having a player opt in to 806 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 2: a fifty two million dollar contract with a lot of money, 807 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 2: and then he immediately becomes well, we don't know where 808 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 2: the Lakers are focused right now. It's like, what, all right, 809 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 2: how are one of the books I see hanging there? Column? 810 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 2: I'm gonna get right to your Poppy's picks coming up, Tony, 811 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: get back here, man, I want to talk to you guys. 812 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,359 Speaker 2: At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox we got 813 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 2: baseball to dive into.

And then if you're let's go 828 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 2: ahead and keep that on the Lakers side of things 829 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 2: because NBA free agency, I still think is one of, 830 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 2: if not the biggest story going in sports right now. 831 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 2: If you are a the Lakers fan, are you cool 832 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 2: with just plenty on Lebron and getting another player? I 833 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 2: mean you feel like you need to get draft assets 834 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 2: for the future or no. Also, Man Breed, you really 835 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,439 Speaker 2: brought people down whenever it came to DeAndre Ayton coming 836 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 2: to the Lakers. But I feel like, well, I think 837 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 2: they need that reality check. 838 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 3: Oh good, because I don't think. 839 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 2: I'm wrong, Like I don't think you're wrong either, because 840 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 2: I usually. 841 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 4: I'll be like, I could be wrong, I could be 842 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 4: like looking very like I'm very emotional person, but no, 843 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 4: I kind of just think I'm. 844 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,800 Speaker 2: Right nature boy with a double shot here right, So 845 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 2: I'm with Brie. I can't wait to see the carnage 846 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 2: for the Lakers, and then adds eight and the Lakers 847 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 2: now gives them two Yokos to live with well for now. 848 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 3: For wow, that's great. 849 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 2: It's true. Unfortunately, but I am I'll tell you what. 850 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 2: People are kind of drunk on what Houston in Atlanta 851 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 2: did in free agency right now. I like what Houston 852 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 2: did a lot, but everyone's chasing, okay see, and I'm not. 853 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 2: You know, they've they've you know, Chet Holmgren battled some 854 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 2: injuries and I know Jalen Williams just had the risk surgery. 855 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 2: But I just I feel like as long as Shay 856 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 2: Gil just Alexander is healthy, I think it's going to 857 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 2: be tough to beat them again in twenty twenty five. 858 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 2: And they got topitch who I mean, it's supposed to 859 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 2: be something pretty special, was gonna be a lottery pick, 860 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 2: slid to them last year in the draft because of 861 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: an injury. I should say it was going to be 862 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 2: a top five pick, but slid to him and last 863 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,320 Speaker 2: year's drafts and then missed the whole year with an injury. 864 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 2: So I just I found this to be fascinating to 865 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 2: where everyone is talking about moves made here and there, 866 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 2: and yet no one's bringing up that no one did anything. 867 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 2: It seemed that what he clips the thunder. Now you 868 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 2: could also add, I like what Denver did a lot, 869 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 2: and Denver came pretty damn close to eliminating OKC if 870 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 2: not for a game seven complete meltdown, and you know 871 00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 2: that Aaron Gordon injury hampered him quite a bit. Just 872 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 2: a fascinating team building time and we get a chance 873 00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 2: to see the fruits of those labors starting now because 874 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 2: the Summer League is this weekend. So NBA has been 875 00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: a big topic tonight in Major League Baseball. I mentioned 876 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 2: this often. You're not gonna sit here, I think on 877 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 2: a Friday night into a Saturday morning and here a 878 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 2: ton of Major League Baseball game by game talk. You know, 879 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 2: we'll dive into the big stories and the trade deadlines 880 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 2: coming up, and then went the playoffs, and we'll debate 881 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,359 Speaker 2: about who's a buyer and who's a seller, and we'll 882 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 2: debate about who's gonna end up being a difference maker 883 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,440 Speaker 2: in the postseason. All those fun baseball conversations but from 884 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 2: a day to day you really got to be invested, right, 885 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 2: And I thought Major League Baseball tried its damn this 886 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: today to get more juice. I mean, you had a 887 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,440 Speaker 2: lot of great matchups. Now the Dodgers forgot to show up, 888 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,760 Speaker 2: but yeah, Dodgers Astros, which could be a World Series preview. 889 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 2: You had the Mets and the Yankees. You know, by 890 00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 2: the way, the Mets and the Yankees game was fantastic. 891 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 2: You had MLB dot TV free for a day. You 892 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 2: gotta get the networks to help you out. I mean, 893 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 2: there's no reason why our friends over at Fox shouldn't 894 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 2: have had a couple games today. My local Fox had 895 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 2: like Judge Judy on. So you're telling me I couldn't 896 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 2: get the Mets and the Yankees that of like hot bench. 897 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, let we at least do that. 898 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: And then finally, we are twenty six days away from 899 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 2: the NFL. That's the preseason, or as my man Arnie 900 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,720 Speaker 2: Spanier likes to say, the preseason is the preseason Steeler fans. 901 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 2: I wanted to lay out a couple of things in 902 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: hour three, but I'm kind of moving things. I'm switching 903 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 2: the lineup up here a bit. I think next segment, 904 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 2: I want to get into a little Steelers football and 905 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 2: kind of how we're feeling about what direction they're headed, 906 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 2: because I don't know if I agree with Mike Florio 907 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 2: that the three year extension for Omar Khan means that 908 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 2: nobody's on the hot seat. But I will say when 909 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 2: you get an extension, when you get a new deal, 910 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 2: from any walk of life, in any industry, that is 911 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,800 Speaker 2: a signal that they feel like you're doing a good job. 912 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 2: And I don't know that you can say Pittsburgh has 913 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 2: done a good job and it's roster building the last 914 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 2: few seasons. I mean now they haven't won a playoff game, 915 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 2: and like, what sixteen seventeen years? So I think I'm 916 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 2: I was very dramatic about that nine or ten years. Sorry, 917 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,280 Speaker 2: got a little bit carried away, was feeling my oats. 918 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 2: But Steeler fans, where do we stand on the con extension? 919 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 2: Eight seven, seven ninety nine On Fox? All right, let's 920 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,800 Speaker 2: go to Alberta. I love hearing from my man Colin. Colin, 921 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 2: welcome into Fox Sports.

I really like twelve though, And I know 1003 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 2: that there's a lot of people right now that are 1004 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 2: say twelve. Well, some you made the playoffs, and there's 1005 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 2: they steak and boys. These things I understand, but I 1006 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 2: have a little I'm I'm saying twelve with no automatic 1007 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,400 Speaker 2: bits and you just getting the twelve best teams in 1008 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 2: college football. You might say to yourself, doesn't that takeaway 1009 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 2: from conference championships? Now go still have your beloved Bowl 1010 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 2: Tians if you want to. If the Rose Bowl is 1011 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 2: causing all these problem are at LEAs wise, I think the 1012 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 2: Rose Bulls kind of come to its census, give me 1013 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 2: a playoff the twelve best teams, and if the Big 1014 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 2: twelve is mad because they want a certain amount of teams, 1015 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 2: the Big ten or whatever, that's fine. Let them go 1016 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 2: out and still play in their bowl games, and give 1017 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 2: me twelve, the top twelve teams in college football, and 1018 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 2: then we'll play them out and we'll have And in fact, 1019 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 2: you know what, I wouldn't have a problem even saying 1020 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,080 Speaker 2: one through sixteen, because I'm not a big first round 1021 00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 2: by guy Colin. I kind of like the idea of 1022 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 2: just saying, hey, go let's go, go play. You don't 1023 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 2: need to be sitting around, and I don't want any 1024 00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 2: games off campus until we get to the final four. 1025 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,840 Speaker 2: You're playing the first round of the playoffs on campus, 1026 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: You're playing the second round of the playoffs on campus. 1027 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 2: And then when you get to your final four teams, 1028 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,799 Speaker 2: your two semi finals can be bowl games, and I'm 1029 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 2: fine with it. Put those in neutral site. Higher rated 1030 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:58,240 Speaker 2: team gets to host, and those schools get that money 1031 00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:02,320 Speaker 2: split between the two, with a little extra extra cash 1032 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 2: going to the home team. So I feel and I 1033 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:10,319 Speaker 2: just I feel like conferences have gotten ridiculous. Telling me 1034 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:15,319 Speaker 2: right now today that COW and SMU are in the 1035 00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 2: Atlantic Coast Conference. I mean, we're talking about college You 1036 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 2: should think that at the very least the names of 1037 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,359 Speaker 2: our conferences could kind of make some sense. The Big 1038 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 2: Ten has eighteen teams in it, right, the Big Twelve 1039 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 2: has sixteen. You know, what are we doing? Let's just 1040 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,879 Speaker 2: let's forget about Oh well, they they need to have 1041 00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 2: a set and now everyone needs to get an automatic 1042 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 2: bid or are four for the SEC? And if you're 1043 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,399 Speaker 2: wondering right now, there's this conversation about four automatic bids 1044 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:47,919 Speaker 2: in the sixteen team playoffs for the SEC and four 1045 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 2: for the Big Ten, and then two for the ACC 1046 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 2: and the Big twelve each, and then you've got that 1047 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,920 Speaker 2: large it's kept it just no. If you want to 1048 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,399 Speaker 2: go with five automatic qualifiers, I won't push back too much. 1049 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 2: But if you're gonna do twelve, just give me the 1050 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 2: best twelve. You're gonna do sixteen, give me the best sixteen. 1051 00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 2: I don't think it's that hard. I don't know why 1052 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,280 Speaker 2: we over complicated. You know, Arizona State nearly beat Texas 1053 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 2: last year in the playoffs. Arizona State had no business being 1054 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. Boise State had no business being in 1055 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 2: the playoffs last year they won a playoff team. SMU, 1056 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,440 Speaker 2: to a certain extent, really had no business being in 1057 00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 2: the playoffs last year, but because we had these ridiculous 1058 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,360 Speaker 2: ranking systems, they ended up sliding in. So Clemson. Actually, 1059 00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 2: that might be a better example in SMU. Clemson had 1060 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 2: no business being in the playoffs last year, but they 1061 00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 2: won the ACC title game. So I am. I get 1062 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:41,520 Speaker 2: very frustrated by college sports because I feel like that 1063 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,399 Speaker 2: there's very simple answers, and the last thing we want 1064 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,439 Speaker 2: to do is the easy answer. We want to over 1065 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 2: complicate everything. Colin, Oh, hey, what are we doing here? 1066 00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 2: So wait, we have a twelve team playoff. Well that's 1067 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 2: not good enough. We got to get to sixteen. They 1068 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,160 Speaker 2: gave They give the twelve team playoff not even a 1069 00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 2: full year before they started talking about expanding it to sixteen. 1070 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,240 Speaker 2: And there is no sport right now that is more 1071 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,800 Speaker 2: clinging to or run by TV money than college football. 1072 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:10,839 Speaker 2: So they're gonna do whatever the networks want. So I'm 1073 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:13,319 Speaker 2: through all of that. And I could talk about this 1074 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,400 Speaker 2: all night, but I won't because I don't want to 1075 00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 2: make Sean mad at me. But I'm just about the 1076 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 2: best twelve or sixteen teams. But you've got to make 1077 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 2: sure that the Big twelve and the ACC is represented. 1078 00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 2: Why why what is the Big twelve one that didn't 1079 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,240 Speaker 2: involve Oklahom and Texas and its history? 1080 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 10: Is? 1081 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 2: What is the ACC done recently? 1082 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 14: You know? 1083 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:42,040 Speaker 2: Why? Get better and then maybe you can earn those 1084 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,719 Speaker 2: spots as being a top sixteen team if you're that good. 1085 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 2: It's just these automatic bids. And listen Tony Pettiti. I 1086 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 2: understand why he doesn't talk, because the guy makes no sense. 1087 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:57,919 Speaker 2: A four four to two and a half model. You're 1088 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 2: gonna have a playing game for the third spot out 1089 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 2: of the Big twelve for the ACCS, You're gonna have 1090 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,279 Speaker 2: their third place teams play in a championship game. Like, 1091 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:08,439 Speaker 2: what the hell are we doing? Can't wait to tune 1092 00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 2: in for that Kansas State Miami show now to find 1093 00:54:11,200 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 2: out who the other playoff team is going to be? Said, 1094 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 2: no one ever. Just if you got to have the 1095 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:21,280 Speaker 2: automatic qualifiers, fine, but we don't need to be giving 1096 00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 2: extra automatic qualifiers. This is not an invitational, it's a playoff. 1097 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 2: This is not some sort of preseason event. This is 1098 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:32,799 Speaker 2: the championship.

Don't forget our man Bernie Fratto 1217 00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:01,440 Speaker 2: coming up Saturday night. I see, I'm curious if Bernie 1218 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 2: is already into the full breakdown of kind of how 1219 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 2: he's feeling on NFL teams. Right, this is that period where, 1220 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 2: in some people's eyes as still a little too early. 1221 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:18,920 Speaker 2: Let me see a couple of preseason games, let me 1222 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 2: see a little let me see a little bit of practice, 1223 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 2: make sure no injuries take place. And I kind of 1224 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 2: am like that, right, I want to see a little 1225 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 2: bit before I'm here to tell you well, I think 1226 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,080 Speaker 2: this team is going to be X Y and Z, 1227 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:38,120 Speaker 2: but I have some feelings about the Steelers. So at 1228 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 2: eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, I am sitting 1229 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 2: here begging for a Steelers fan tonight, begging. I see, 1230 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,440 Speaker 2: I've got Robert in Vegas, got Jay Boone and Maine 1231 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 2: Andrew and Beakersfield. Give me just like two minutes here, guys, 1232 01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:57,680 Speaker 2: because I don't know what to make of what the 1233 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 2: Steelers have done this offseason. Now, the over under total 1234 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:04,640 Speaker 2: for the Pittsburgh Steelers this year is eight and a half, 1235 01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 2: which to me, Brie, I don't know about you. Eight 1236 01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 2: and a half screams of mediocrity, right. That's you're either 1237 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:15,200 Speaker 2: nine to eight or eight and nine, which means you're 1238 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 2: either on the cusp at least in the eyes of 1239 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:21,280 Speaker 2: Vegas and the odds makers, which means you're kind of 1240 01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 2: on the cusp of being maybe a wild card team 1241 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 2: like me. For instance, here's the teams at last check, 1242 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 2: and this was through BENMGM. The teams at nine and 1243 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 2: a half right now for an over under total are 1244 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 2: the Bengals, Broncos, Packers, Texans, Chargers, Rams, Buccaneers, and Commanders. 1245 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:42,720 Speaker 2: Eight teams that I think everyone looks at as playoff teams. Right, 1246 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 2: It's like, oh, those teams have a shot at the 1247 01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 2: playoffs this year. Your teams at eight and a half 1248 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 2: are a much different group, right. It's the Arizona Cardinals, 1249 01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:54,240 Speaker 2: the Chicago Bears, Miami Dolphins, like, what are the Dolphins 1250 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,080 Speaker 2: doing right now? Minnesota with the first year starting quarterback, 1251 01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:04,919 Speaker 2: New England, Seattle, and Pittsburgh. So it's weird because I'm 1252 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 2: a fan of a team where if I have the 1253 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,640 Speaker 2: kind of consistency the Pittsburgh hat right now, I'd be 1254 01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 2: in heaven. I'm like, oh my gosh, look where we 1255 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 2: have a winning record. It's the greatest thing that's ever happened. 1256 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:17,160 Speaker 2: But I also understand that you are talking about a 1257 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 2: team in Pittsburgh that hasn't necessarily been a true super 1258 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 2: Bowl contender since what they won the Super Bowl, that 1259 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:30,320 Speaker 2: hasn't really found a way to replace one of the 1260 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:34,520 Speaker 2: great quarterbacks in Steelers' history over the last couple of seasons, 1261 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 2: you know, since Big Men stepped away, they haven't been 1262 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:41,960 Speaker 2: able to find any consistency at the quarterback position. So 1263 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,360 Speaker 2: the last time they want a playoff game was twenty sixteen. 1264 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 2: That was when they beat the Chiefs, and by the way, 1265 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 2: I think that's what led the Chiefs to kind of 1266 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,440 Speaker 2: start looking at, boy, what do we have to do 1267 01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:59,120 Speaker 2: at the quarterback position? They played in the AFC Championship 1268 01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 2: game that year. They haven't been to the super Bowl 1269 01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:06,560 Speaker 2: since twenty ten. That was that span where they went 1270 01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 2: to two and three years they beat the Cardinals for 1271 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:13,640 Speaker 2: the championship. In eight they won it and won it, 1272 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 2: and then they lost in twenty ten. Of the Packers 1273 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,920 Speaker 2: haven't been back since what was that three super Bowls 1274 01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,160 Speaker 2: in a six year stretch that they went to won 1275 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 2: two of them. Pretty cool, pretty good run. But we 1276 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:27,600 Speaker 2: are talking about five, eight and twenty ten, which now 1277 01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 2: when you look back then, you know those trophies are 1278 01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:34,680 Speaker 2: starting to get dusty. And I look at their listen, 1279 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 2: I count me among the groups of people and I 1280 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 2: use that plural that really liked what they did with 1281 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 2: the moves with the Dolphins. I like bringing in John 1282 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,000 Speaker 2: Ui Smith. I think he's still effective. I like bringing 1283 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:50,520 Speaker 2: in Jalen Ramsey. I think he still got a little 1284 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 2: juice in the tank. But you know, you've heard the 1285 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 2: promo a thousand times with Colin Coward. I don't really 1286 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:59,160 Speaker 2: know if those are like a list moves and Aaron 1287 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 2: Rodgers is your guy who's aging and there's no one 1288 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 2: really behind him. So I Omar Khan gets the extension, 1289 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 2: and I don't know what to make of it, you know, 1290 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,760 Speaker 2: I don't know if you look at it and say, man, 1291 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:16,680 Speaker 2: he's done a great job and it is only a 1292 01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:21,959 Speaker 2: three year extension, But I guess, I guess you could 1293 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 2: say it's been a productive couple of seasons. But in 1294 01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 2: that same Veinbury, we're talking about a team who's expectation 1295 01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:32,280 Speaker 2: is championships, right, So when you're talking about a squad 1296 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,720 Speaker 2: that hasn't won a playoff game since when I mentioned, oh, six, 1297 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I keep saying that that's when they won 1298 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl? Is since sixteen? I mean that's that 1299 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 2: to me is a sign of a franchise who has, 1300 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 2: you know what, as many Super Bowl wins as anyone 1301 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 2: and consistently has found themselves as being a team that's 1302 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:55,920 Speaker 2: in the playoffs and winning playoff games prior to this 1303 01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 2: drought which started in the twenty seventeen season, Like, what 1304 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:02,320 Speaker 2: is this it's worth an extension for your general manager? 1305 01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 2: Is this a franchise that's head in the right path? 1306 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:10,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, because you're looking at what four straight 1307 01:05:10,320 --> 01:05:13,440 Speaker 2: seasons of what I would consider mediocrity in the eyes 1308 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,480 Speaker 2: of Steeler fans ninety seven and one, nine and eight, 1309 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 2: ten and seven, ten and seven, without a playoff win. 1310 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:22,120 Speaker 2: Does it make sense to extend a GM if that's 1311 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:27,080 Speaker 2: what you're doing, I don't know. But Steeler fans, I'm 1312 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 2: here for you. What do you make of it? Brie? 1313 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:31,080 Speaker 2: Are the Steelers headed in the right direction? Is it 1314 01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:33,919 Speaker 2: worthy of Omar Khan to get an extension like you did? 1315 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 4: I think what you were talking about, like consistency. I 1316 01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:38,840 Speaker 4: think that's what just like what fans just kind of like, 1317 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 4: other than wanting a championship, I think they just want consistency. 1318 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:43,920 Speaker 4: And if you look elsewhere in like that division, if 1319 01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 4: you're like a Bengals fan, you're just like, what are 1320 01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:49,760 Speaker 4: we doing? Why haven't we like all the drama that 1321 01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 4: happened last offseason with Jamar Chase and everything and t 1322 01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:58,040 Speaker 4: Or Higgins, right, yeah, like all that drama and then 1323 01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:01,720 Speaker 4: you guys have they haven't extended Tray yet. The Browns, 1324 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 4: we don't know what they're doing with their quarterback situation everything. 1325 01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 4: I guess Baltimore is the only one that has a 1326 01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:10,560 Speaker 4: clue of what they're headed in the right direction. 1327 01:06:11,120 --> 01:06:13,200 Speaker 3: But I think Pittsburgh there just it seems like they're. 1328 01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:16,720 Speaker 4: Just okay with with being just mediocre and that's better 1329 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:20,480 Speaker 4: than going like being inconsistent and crazy and going down. 1330 01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:22,800 Speaker 2: Right, and you're never gonna be in a spot you're 1331 01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 2: gonna be too good to get a franchise quarterback. You 1332 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:28,520 Speaker 2: you sare? I mean, look around the league right now. 1333 01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 2: And again I'm not picking on Arnie. We do shows together. 1334 01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 2: We'll do two this week, we'll do one tonight, and 1335 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:35,640 Speaker 2: we'll do one tomorrow night. But he's one of those 1336 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:38,280 Speaker 2: guys that doesn't believe you need a first round quarterback 1337 01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 2: until like his team's drafting a quarterback in the first round. 1338 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 2: But you know, we're talking about looking around the league 1339 01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:48,360 Speaker 2: right now, most of the starting quarterbacks first round picks, 1340 01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:53,080 Speaker 2: you know, I mean they really truly are. And I know, 1341 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:56,439 Speaker 2: well what about Rock Party and Tom Brady. You're talking 1342 01:06:56,480 --> 01:07:00,560 Speaker 2: about two guys in like twenty years that you found 1343 01:07:00,600 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 2: beyond the third round that are anything in the league 1344 01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,280 Speaker 2: right now. It's just it's you gotta be and you 1345 01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:09,720 Speaker 2: gotta be high in the first round. So I'm a 1346 01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 2: firm believer that the Steelers are gonna be a good 1347 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:14,640 Speaker 2: team today. And if I a good team this year, 1348 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 2: and if I'm a betting man, I'm betting that over 1349 01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:18,439 Speaker 2: eight and a half, I'm taking it to the bank 1350 01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 2: and feeling good about it. But is it a program, 1351 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:25,760 Speaker 2: a team of franchise that's headed in that championship direction 1352 01:07:25,840 --> 01:07:29,600 Speaker 2: that the Steelers are known for. I'm kind of buying 1353 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 2: into the roster this year a little bit. I like 1354 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:34,960 Speaker 2: DK Metcalf the Robert Woods. But I also kind of 1355 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:36,600 Speaker 2: pull back a bit and say, yeah, but what is 1356 01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:40,040 Speaker 2: the long term prognosis of this squad? Eight seven, seven 1357 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:42,240 Speaker 2: ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven nine ninety six 1358 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,360 Speaker 2: sixty three six nine. All right, I got a little 1359 01:07:44,360 --> 01:07:46,560 Speaker 2: bit behind here. It's Andrew and Bakersfield still hanging in 1360 01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:49,000 Speaker 2: their bree or do we want to move on? All right? 1361 01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:51,480 Speaker 2: Andrew has been patient. I see Matt and I was 1362 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 2: a Steelers fan. He's into but hanging there, guys. I'll 1363 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:55,840 Speaker 2: get it right to you, Andrew, and Bakersfield has won 1364 01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,360 Speaker 2: the Patience Award tonight. What's going on? Andrew? How are you? 1365 01:07:59,000 --> 01:07:59,640 Speaker 8: How's it going? 1366 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:01,080 Speaker 2: Great man? How are you? 1367 01:08:01,680 --> 01:08:07,040 Speaker 8: I'm good on the Lakers. I don't see any reason 1368 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:11,000 Speaker 8: why Lebron can't stay and we make another run. 1369 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:12,600 Speaker 7: Through the playoffs. 1370 01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:14,640 Speaker 2: Preach not agree more? 1371 01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:20,920 Speaker 8: Okay? But then secondly, I just random, but I thought 1372 01:08:20,920 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 8: it was kind of cool. When I heard Jason Kidd, 1373 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:27,360 Speaker 8: the coach of the Mavericks obviously, you know, but talk 1374 01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 8: about Cooper Flag and he's like, yeah, I want to 1375 01:08:30,680 --> 01:08:33,519 Speaker 8: make him uncomfortable, you know, like bring up the ball, 1376 01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:36,439 Speaker 8: be the point guard and stuff like that. I was like, well, 1377 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:40,120 Speaker 8: that's interesting, and so I think Jason kids a pretty 1378 01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:42,240 Speaker 8: good coach, and I thought that was kind of cool. 1379 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:43,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, And especially when you say I thinks for the 1380 01:08:43,960 --> 01:08:45,960 Speaker 2: call make him uncomfortable and be the guy bring the 1381 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:47,840 Speaker 2: ball of the court. When you have Kyrie Irving, you know, 1382 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,679 Speaker 2: it's like there's a guy that's a ball dominant point 1383 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 2: guard I and it's going to be a while before 1384 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,719 Speaker 2: Irving I think is cleared and ready to go. But guys, 1385 01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:58,720 Speaker 2: I'm telling you what if you haven't watched college basketball 1386 01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:01,200 Speaker 2: and you didn't care about Duke, and you ever really 1387 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,040 Speaker 2: watched Cooper Flag, watch the summer league games the Mavericks play. 1388 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:07,439 Speaker 2: He's really He's a fun watch, he really is. And 1389 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:10,920 Speaker 2: to make him uncomfortable. Yeah, he's coming in at the 1390 01:09:11,000 --> 01:09:13,200 Speaker 2: number one pick and everyone's saying great things about him 1391 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 2: and how he's going to be a franchise changer for 1392 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 2: a franchise had just got knee capped, right, They just 1393 01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:22,880 Speaker 2: lost their star in a trade that everyone thinks was underwhelming. 1394 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 2: But Cooper Flags, I mean, he's that guy. And you 1395 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:28,800 Speaker 2: know Jason Kidd, it hasn't ended well for him at 1396 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,960 Speaker 2: all of his stops. Didn't well for him with the Nets, 1397 01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 2: didn't end well for him with the Bucks. But I 1398 01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 2: think he's done a pretty good job with the Dallas Mavericks. 1399 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:39,920 Speaker 2: I really do all right, Listen, I wanted a Steelers fan. 1400 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,000 Speaker 2: Let me get Matt from Iowa straight to the front 1401 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:43,840 Speaker 2: front of the line. What's going on, Matt? How are 1402 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:45,160 Speaker 2: you welcome to Fox Sports Radio. 1403 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:49,400 Speaker 18: I'm doing great, just got down the line off a 1404 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,680 Speaker 18: bunch of explosions celebrating the fourth and I hope you're 1405 01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 18: having a good. 1406 01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:52,639 Speaker 12: Nun as well. 1407 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 2: No, I did the same thing, man. It was God 1408 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 2: bless our ability to fire off fireworks without injuring ourselves. Man, 1409 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 2: So what do you make of the Steelers stock? Where 1410 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:03,000 Speaker 2: are you out on Omar Khan's extension? 1411 01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 19: I'm okay with it. 1412 01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:08,200 Speaker 18: I think for him this three year kind of like 1413 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:10,599 Speaker 18: his first shot to actually kind of prove it because 1414 01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:13,479 Speaker 18: he's kind of just now getting out from what Kevin 1415 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 18: Colbert was doing. You know, it's a great point, and 1416 01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 18: I think he is showing something that Kevin Colbert never did, 1417 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 18: which is aggressiveness and free agency. Talking about the DK move, 1418 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 18: that the Pickens move, getting that drama in the locker room. 1419 01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 18: I'm not really going to count Aaron Rodgers. I think 1420 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,600 Speaker 18: he's just a placeholder for this year and then the 1421 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,360 Speaker 18: trade for Minka. I love him. I never wanted to 1422 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,240 Speaker 18: see him go, but the last two years he's either 1423 01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:36,599 Speaker 18: been hurt or just not producing. So I understand. 1424 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 2: You know, Matt don't go anywhere. It's funny that you 1425 01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:43,840 Speaker 2: say that, because I hadn't thought of it that way. 1426 01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:47,519 Speaker 2: Everyone's like all the steel Florial I use my Glorial 1427 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 2: a lot, and he laid out the Steelers are doing 1428 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,720 Speaker 2: things unlike I've ever seen them do before, because it 1429 01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:54,200 Speaker 2: seems like they're desk. Well, no, they're doing things different 1430 01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,680 Speaker 2: because Omar Khan has finally been able to put a 1431 01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:59,200 Speaker 2: stamp on things, and maybe in this area they're gonna 1432 01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:01,479 Speaker 2: be a little bit more free agency. And there's nothing 1433 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:05,200 Speaker 2: wrong with that. So maybe this honestly is as confused 1434 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:08,040 Speaker 2: as I am by this extension this quick with so 1435 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:11,679 Speaker 2: many people feeling like there's not this bright future. Maybe 1436 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 2: it's just different in the way that he's approaching it. 1437 01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:16,080 Speaker 2: And different isn't always bad, is it. 1438 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:17,800 Speaker 10: No? 1439 01:11:17,920 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 18: I think it's a it's a good change of pace 1440 01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:22,240 Speaker 18: for what we have been dealing with of just you know, 1441 01:11:22,320 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 18: not doing anything the free agency, just rolling with what 1442 01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 18: we got, defense getting older, or we're just like all right, 1443 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 18: it's another nine and eighties and Tom Ling needs a 1444 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:29,799 Speaker 18: whole lot of that record. 1445 01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:31,120 Speaker 7: It's nice. 1446 01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 18: Maybe it's not the right moves that's see it to 1447 01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 18: be seen, but it's nice to see us making moves 1448 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,000 Speaker 18: in free agency while we can. 1449 01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, thanks for the phone call. I appreciate it. Listen. 1450 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 2: Like I said, I don't know how to feel about this. 1451 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,920 Speaker 2: This is one of those teams that, based on history, 1452 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,120 Speaker 2: you put an over under for Pittsburgh in the eight 1453 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,040 Speaker 2: or even I guess now nine range. I'm probably gonna 1454 01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 2: take the over every single chance I get, and I'm 1455 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 2: probably gonna feel like they have a shot. And I 1456 01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:00,400 Speaker 2: know everyone looks at the division well, you know, as 1457 01:12:00,439 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 2: we've learned from Cincinnati, and most teams are like this. 1458 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:08,280 Speaker 2: You're one injury away from being very mediocre, very mediocre, 1459 01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:11,320 Speaker 2: and I think the same can be said for Baltimore 1460 01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:15,400 Speaker 2: as well. So, I mean I was a little bit 1461 01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:19,160 Speaker 2: shocked to see the extension, but then to that same 1462 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,840 Speaker 2: kind of line of thinking, I'm not as down on 1463 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:24,640 Speaker 2: them as most people are, so I'm gonna pick the 1464 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:28,559 Speaker 2: Ravens to win the division, but intriguing to see what 1465 01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:32,000 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers can do. All right, Oh gosh, we got 1466 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:35,599 Speaker 2: an all star lineup of callers.

From the NFL preseason and Pittsburgh extends 1480 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:11,040 Speaker 2: its general manager and an all season. That's been questioned 1481 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:12,840 Speaker 2: quite a bit, but as you put them in a 1482 01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:15,360 Speaker 2: better position, I think I'm saying, yes, what's say you? 1483 01:13:15,439 --> 01:13:18,200 Speaker 2: It's Fox Sports Radio, a lot of good stuff on 1484 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 2: Twitter to get to as well.

Craig Keller writes, con getting an 1492 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:49,280 Speaker 2: extension with the Steelers is okay, only for three years, 1493 01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:51,680 Speaker 2: still giving the Minka trade a little bit of the 1494 01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 2: side eye. Minka's twenty seven Ramsey Smith in their early thirties, 1495 01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 2: but Mika hasn't been producing turnovers the last two seasons, 1496 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:03,200 Speaker 2: so we'll see.

I think this 1755 01:26:25,680 --> 01:26:27,240 Speaker 2: is a great way to start the final hour. Love 1756 01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:29,559 Speaker 2: me some Blind Scott. What's going on, Blind Scott? How 1757 01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 2: are you man? 1758 01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 13: Pretty good? 1759 01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:31,559 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1760 01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:34,200 Speaker 13: I used to buy those big M eighties. But fireworks 1761 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:37,639 Speaker 13: have always been illegal in mass Chusetts. And really, yeah 1762 01:26:37,680 --> 01:26:40,000 Speaker 13: they're still legal because people live so close to each other. 1763 01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:41,879 Speaker 13: You could burn someone's house down. 1764 01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:43,920 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. Yeah, that's not good. 1765 01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 13: Yeah, so I didn't hear any fireworks. Scout was sleeping. 1766 01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:51,000 Speaker 13: But dude, I got this ACC thing to tell you. 1767 01:26:51,120 --> 01:26:53,599 Speaker 13: Like Bill O'Brien and Bill Belichick, if you didn't hear 1768 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:54,360 Speaker 13: their coaching in. 1769 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:56,760 Speaker 21: The ACC, that's right, you're in. 1770 01:26:56,840 --> 01:26:59,040 Speaker 13: The BT has a game against Notre Dame this year. 1771 01:26:59,600 --> 01:27:02,000 Speaker 13: BT's going to be really good this year. I don't 1772 01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:03,840 Speaker 13: see how you can think the ACC is not going 1773 01:27:03,880 --> 01:27:06,080 Speaker 13: to be relevant this year. I'm I'll probably go to 1774 01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:09,280 Speaker 13: a lot of BC games and then this Carl Anthony 1775 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:11,280 Speaker 13: Towns in the New York Knicks. I'm a big James 1776 01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:14,120 Speaker 13: Doone fan. I'm a big New York Knicks fan. And 1777 01:27:14,520 --> 01:27:17,599 Speaker 13: Karl Anthony Towns I swear he's the best big man 1778 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 13: to ever play in the NBA. 1779 01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:22,439 Speaker 2: What are you talking about? I swear? 1780 01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,640 Speaker 13: Yeah, he was injured in the playoffs. You know, So 1781 01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:27,519 Speaker 13: this guy Tibbs. 1782 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:28,599 Speaker 12: So here's why. 1783 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:31,240 Speaker 13: Tims got fired. He didn't know how to coach Carl 1784 01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:34,200 Speaker 13: Anthony Towns. During the regular season, him and Dolan had it, 1785 01:27:34,439 --> 01:27:36,800 Speaker 13: you know, had a fight, so they got rid of him. 1786 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:40,440 Speaker 13: So Carl Anthony town played injured all through the playoffs. 1787 01:27:40,439 --> 01:27:42,439 Speaker 13: You know what I'm saying. I mean, I picked this 1788 01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 13: up off of Infinity Radio Network talking to this guy, 1789 01:27:45,680 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 13: and he convinced about it. He must have grown up 1790 01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:51,160 Speaker 13: with Carl Anthony Towns because he's from New Jersey from 1791 01:27:51,320 --> 01:27:54,599 Speaker 13: what I gather. You know, but the guy's seven feet tall. 1792 01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 13: He can do just about everything on the court. You 1793 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:00,360 Speaker 13: know what I'm saying. I'm all for bringing the Bron 1794 01:28:00,479 --> 01:28:02,680 Speaker 13: James to New York City right now to play basketball. 1795 01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:05,719 Speaker 13: It means so much for the United States of America. 1796 01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:08,760 Speaker 13: I think as a country, if Lebron James goes to 1797 01:28:08,760 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 13: New York City, it means a lot to the NBA. 1798 01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:13,840 Speaker 13: I think it's the biggest move that could happen in 1799 01:28:13,880 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 13: talk radio, just for people that do your job. One 1800 01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:20,120 Speaker 13: other thing too, like the thing with fireworks, is it's 1801 01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:22,800 Speaker 13: kind of a low IQ type of hobby, you know 1802 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:26,960 Speaker 13: what I'm saying, And and uh, it's the truth, you 1803 01:28:26,960 --> 01:28:30,160 Speaker 13: know what I mean. Like I've used guy dogs my 1804 01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:33,240 Speaker 13: whole life. My guy dog pulled me into the woods 1805 01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:35,040 Speaker 13: once when I went out for fireworks. You know what 1806 01:28:35,040 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 13: I'm saying. 1807 01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:36,920 Speaker 10: They're the worst. 1808 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:39,200 Speaker 13: Things for dogs. But I was praying when I was 1809 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:41,880 Speaker 13: on hold for the people in Texas, like it couldn't 1810 01:28:41,920 --> 01:28:45,760 Speaker 13: be more centertive. Everybody was camping, and I mean, it's 1811 01:28:45,880 --> 01:28:48,360 Speaker 13: just such a terrible story to end such like a 1812 01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 13: great holiday, you know what I mean. And when you 1813 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 13: went to Colorado, you obviously drove, you drove your family 1814 01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:57,960 Speaker 13: there and color Yeah, I went to prep school with 1815 01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:03,160 Speaker 13: people from Boulder. They were actually like in the like 1816 01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:05,400 Speaker 13: I'm the same age as like the whole Columbine thing, 1817 01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:07,559 Speaker 13: you know what I mean. So after that happened, Yeah, 1818 01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:10,040 Speaker 13: Like Boulder was like real rich community. So after that happened, 1819 01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:12,599 Speaker 13: Like I went to prep school with kids from that area, 1820 01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:15,520 Speaker 13: So I have like a real like I love Colorado 1821 01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:17,960 Speaker 13: just because there's so much off there. It has a city, 1822 01:29:18,400 --> 01:29:21,439 Speaker 13: it has camping, it has skiing, you know what I mean. 1823 01:29:21,800 --> 01:29:24,200 Speaker 13: I didn't realize you were from the Illinois though. I 1824 01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:28,000 Speaker 13: thought you were from Oklahoma because I have like Oklahoma. 1825 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:30,360 Speaker 13: I like Oklahoma so much because it seems like it 1826 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:33,080 Speaker 13: has the most kindest people in the world. You know 1827 01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:35,360 Speaker 13: what I'm saying, Like, when you took that call from 1828 01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:37,920 Speaker 13: Kitty last hour, I thought maybe that was a prank call. 1829 01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:39,360 Speaker 13: Did you think it was a prank call? Maybe? 1830 01:29:39,400 --> 01:29:41,479 Speaker 2: I think it was. I think someone was setting me up. 1831 01:29:41,560 --> 01:29:44,080 Speaker 2: I didn't want to risk going there, but Brief saved 1832 01:29:44,080 --> 01:29:44,559 Speaker 2: me on it. 1833 01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:45,320 Speaker 7: Yeah. 1834 01:29:45,320 --> 01:29:47,080 Speaker 13: I'm glad that you thought it was a prank because 1835 01:29:47,120 --> 01:29:48,679 Speaker 13: I did too. We won't go there. But you don't 1836 01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:50,040 Speaker 13: celebrate Halloween. 1837 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:51,360 Speaker 11: Do not? 1838 01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:54,599 Speaker 2: Really? It's usually the middle football season. So I'm busy. 1839 01:29:54,439 --> 01:29:57,519 Speaker 13: Because you can't do those those you must get those jokes, 1840 01:29:57,560 --> 01:29:59,320 Speaker 13: those pirate jokes, like I don't know if that's your 1841 01:29:59,320 --> 01:30:00,559 Speaker 13: real last name, that's. 1842 01:30:00,320 --> 01:30:01,720 Speaker 2: Just your last name. 1843 01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:03,400 Speaker 15: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but that. 1844 01:30:03,400 --> 01:30:05,800 Speaker 13: Must have been tough growing up, you know what I'm saying, Like. 1845 01:30:05,800 --> 01:30:09,200 Speaker 2: You know what's interesting enough, Scott, My friends weren't that creative. 1846 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:11,800 Speaker 2: They didn't really come until college, believe it or not. 1847 01:30:14,120 --> 01:30:14,360 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1848 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:17,120 Speaker 21: One other thing though, So the Knicks don't have a 1849 01:30:17,200 --> 01:30:21,120 Speaker 21: coach yet, right, it's not official. Yeah, so they did 1850 01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:23,360 Speaker 21: get rid of Tibbs for no reason, like he could 1851 01:30:23,360 --> 01:30:27,000 Speaker 21: still be coaching there, but they have four candidates that 1852 01:30:27,040 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 21: they like to have on the on the New York 1853 01:30:28,960 --> 01:30:30,519 Speaker 21: Nicks team. I do a lot of New York Knicks 1854 01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:32,720 Speaker 21: talk radios. That's why I'm a huge fan, you know. 1855 01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:35,559 Speaker 21: But when you go on New York Knicks talk radio, 1856 01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:38,320 Speaker 21: you can't say anything bad about James Dolng because he 1857 01:30:38,400 --> 01:30:41,240 Speaker 21: owned so many radio stations, you know, so you always 1858 01:30:41,280 --> 01:30:43,800 Speaker 21: have to say you're a huge James Dowin fan. And 1859 01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:47,639 Speaker 21: then for some reason, James Dong he knows Karl Anthony Town, 1860 01:30:47,680 --> 01:30:49,479 Speaker 21: so you have to say he's the best big man 1861 01:30:49,520 --> 01:30:51,360 Speaker 21: to ever do it, and then you can just go 1862 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:52,599 Speaker 21: you can go from there. 1863 01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:54,920 Speaker 13: But it's really hard to talk to those people, you know. 1864 01:30:55,520 --> 01:30:57,400 Speaker 2: I'll make sure to take that note. Thanks Flying Scott. 1865 01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:58,840 Speaker 2: It's good to your voice and that man. I hope 1866 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:02,240 Speaker 2: you have an awesome rest of your weekend. He mentioned 1867 01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 2: the situation in Texas. I brought it up near the 1868 01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:10,600 Speaker 2: end of hour two. I mean, we've dealt with unbelievable 1869 01:31:10,720 --> 01:31:15,599 Speaker 2: rain in the South this year, and at least twenty 1870 01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 2: twenty four people have died in dozens are missing after 1871 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:24,679 Speaker 2: the catastrophic flooding that swept through Texas. This was basically, 1872 01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 2: over the last twenty four to forty eight hours, the 1873 01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:32,080 Speaker 2: Guadalupe River in Hunt, Texas surged thirty feet above normal 1874 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,559 Speaker 2: and did so in a very brief amount of time. 1875 01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:40,360 Speaker 2: It devastated homes, It swept away vehicles and buildings, and unfortunately, 1876 01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:44,479 Speaker 2: among the missing are twenty three campers from something called 1877 01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:49,720 Speaker 2: Camp Mystic, and it was involving young girls. So far, 1878 01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:52,639 Speaker 2: there's twenty four people that have lost their lives. Dozens 1879 01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:57,080 Speaker 2: more are still missing. And it was it ran thirty 1880 01:31:57,120 --> 01:31:59,519 Speaker 2: feet above its normal levels in a very short amount 1881 01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:03,559 Speaker 2: of time. So thoughts and prayers. I'm glad you mentioned it, Scott, 1882 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:06,160 Speaker 2: because I have friends that have been affected by this. 1883 01:32:06,760 --> 01:32:08,160 Speaker 2: You know. I saw a friend of mine that I 1884 01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:10,800 Speaker 2: work with whose niece is missing. So I hope for 1885 01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:14,320 Speaker 2: the most amazing positive outcome on that front. And the 1886 01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:17,680 Speaker 2: other side of it. Karl Anthony Town's one of the 1887 01:32:17,680 --> 01:32:19,840 Speaker 2: best big men to ever do it. I mean, Bri, 1888 01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:23,280 Speaker 2: I feel like that's I feel like that's Scott getting 1889 01:32:23,320 --> 01:32:24,519 Speaker 2: a little carried away, don't you. 1890 01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:27,280 Speaker 4: That's Jason Smith saying that Jalen Brunson is the best 1891 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:27,680 Speaker 4: nick of. 1892 01:32:27,680 --> 01:32:31,400 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, I'm still triggered by that. 1893 01:32:32,280 --> 01:32:35,320 Speaker 2: The night the Knicks make the Eastern Conference Final, Jason 1894 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:37,600 Speaker 2: Smith is on the air saying that Jalen Brunson is 1895 01:32:37,640 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 2: the greatest Nick of all time.

Okay, So what we're doing is we're. 1914 01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:35,040 Speaker 19: Taking a shot this year with the core that we have. 1915 01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:37,800 Speaker 19: So we've got too many good players just to give up, right, 1916 01:33:37,920 --> 01:33:40,559 Speaker 19: So we're taking the best shot we can and we're 1917 01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:44,479 Speaker 19: set up for complete rebuild next year if we need to, 1918 01:33:45,479 --> 01:33:49,479 Speaker 19: whether it's whether it's leveraging all that draft capital to 1919 01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,280 Speaker 19: move up for a quarterback, or if we decide that 1920 01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:55,559 Speaker 19: Will Howard is potentially the guy moving forward, then we 1921 01:33:55,600 --> 01:33:58,479 Speaker 19: get draft and fill out the roster way more cheaply, 1922 01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:00,240 Speaker 19: you know. 1923 01:34:00,280 --> 01:34:02,840 Speaker 2: And that's the interesting part. And I appreciate the call, 1924 01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 2: Rob because I think guys like me, we look at 1925 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:08,880 Speaker 2: it and say, well, what are you gonna do this year? 1926 01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:11,040 Speaker 2: You got Aaron Rodgers? The future doesn't look bright. And 1927 01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:13,360 Speaker 2: then you'll hear from a handful of people that cover 1928 01:34:13,400 --> 01:34:15,280 Speaker 2: the team, and what do they say, Oh, never seen 1929 01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:18,040 Speaker 2: them do this before. But I think you're on a 1930 01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:20,840 Speaker 2: I think you're onto something. This is Hey, what do 1931 01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:23,919 Speaker 2: we have to lose? Right, We're gonna go to Aaron Rodgers. 1932 01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:27,000 Speaker 2: He's gonna be our guy. We're gonna build around him 1933 01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:31,320 Speaker 2: for a season. If Will Howard is the future, boy, 1934 01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:34,439 Speaker 2: what a fine right is your fourth fifth round pick? 1935 01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:34,599 Speaker 13: Oh? 1936 01:34:34,640 --> 01:34:37,080 Speaker 2: Let me double check that I might've even been sixth 1937 01:34:37,400 --> 01:34:42,840 Speaker 2: where they got him. Yeah, sixth round pick. Let's go 1938 01:34:42,840 --> 01:34:45,120 Speaker 2: ahead and make this move. Bring in Jalen Ramsey. Let's 1939 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:48,439 Speaker 2: get John H. Smith and pair him up with you know, 1940 01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 2: Pat Fryermuth, who might be one of the better tight 1941 01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:56,880 Speaker 2: ends right and a couple of receivers around DK Metcalf. 1942 01:34:57,200 --> 01:34:59,760 Speaker 2: Offensive line is pretty much in play, so let's go. 1943 01:35:01,040 --> 01:35:03,000 Speaker 2: I just went specifically on the offense. We know how 1944 01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:06,040 Speaker 2: good their defense is, but I like it. And then 1945 01:35:06,080 --> 01:35:08,599 Speaker 2: you're set up in the future because with the draft 1946 01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:10,799 Speaker 2: picks that you're gonna have going forward, maybe you could 1947 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:13,320 Speaker 2: get into that top ten, that top eight you know 1948 01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:16,360 Speaker 2: there's projected right now, gotch, I better be careful here 1949 01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:19,200 Speaker 2: because we're up against a break and I'm gonna delve 1950 01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:22,000 Speaker 2: into draft talk. And if you think I'm bad, Bree 1951 01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:24,840 Speaker 2: whenever it comes to getting carried away with draft talk 1952 01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:27,640 Speaker 2: with the week of the draft, when we're talking a 1953 01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:30,120 Speaker 2: year in advance, because no one's gonna remember this right 1954 01:35:30,160 --> 01:35:33,439 Speaker 2: when it No one's be like man Blank said two 1955 01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:36,280 Speaker 2: years ago. No, the twenty twenty six draft is going 1956 01:35:36,320 --> 01:35:37,479 Speaker 2: to be loaded at quarterback. 1957 01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:38,080 Speaker 8: Now. 1958 01:35:38,080 --> 01:35:39,640 Speaker 2: I don't know how good any of these quarterbacks are 1959 01:35:39,640 --> 01:35:41,720 Speaker 2: going to be but it's going to be loaded at 1960 01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:46,639 Speaker 2: quarterback right now. According to Matt Miller ESPN Draft guru, 1961 01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:49,559 Speaker 2: there could be as many as five quarterbacks go in 1962 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:55,040 Speaker 2: the first round. And if you're thinking about arch Manning 1963 01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:57,599 Speaker 2: is one of those five. Arch Manning is telling everyone 1964 01:35:57,640 --> 01:35:59,599 Speaker 2: who will listen that he's not turning pro. And arch 1965 01:35:59,640 --> 01:36:03,400 Speaker 2: Manning has it played a college football game from start 1966 01:36:03,439 --> 01:36:06,720 Speaker 2: to finish against a ranked opponent yet, But he's the 1967 01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:09,160 Speaker 2: number one pick in the draft. Like, what are we 1968 01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:09,720 Speaker 2: doing right now? 1969 01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:12,479 Speaker 3: Do you see what he Steve Spurrier said about. 1970 01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:15,519 Speaker 2: Arch It was brilliant. It was brilliant. Yeah, I think 1971 01:36:15,520 --> 01:36:19,160 Speaker 2: it was right. But you also have names like John 1972 01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:22,519 Speaker 2: Mattier at Oklahoma who could find himself moving into the 1973 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:26,200 Speaker 2: first round. No One before the twenty one year did 1974 01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 2: Kyler go number one overall? Was that the twenty nineteen draft. 1975 01:36:29,160 --> 01:36:31,360 Speaker 2: No one before the twenty nineteen draft was talking about 1976 01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:33,280 Speaker 2: Kyler Murray as the number one pick in the draft. 1977 01:36:33,280 --> 01:36:35,599 Speaker 2: No one was And what do he end up doing 1978 01:36:35,600 --> 01:36:38,360 Speaker 2: going number one overall in the draft. So right now 1979 01:36:38,400 --> 01:36:40,599 Speaker 2: we are, you know, a little less than a year 1980 01:36:40,640 --> 01:36:43,040 Speaker 2: from the draft, and you're talking about five quarterbacks who 1981 01:36:43,080 --> 01:36:45,640 Speaker 2: could go in the first round. So Drew Aller is 1982 01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:47,200 Speaker 2: one of those. I'm not really And like I said, 1983 01:36:47,200 --> 01:36:48,680 Speaker 2: I don't know how good they're gonna be because three 1984 01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:50,320 Speaker 2: of the five I sure has held don't won my 1985 01:36:50,360 --> 01:36:54,960 Speaker 2: team drafting. But still, maybe we're onto something, Rob Maybe 1986 01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:57,720 Speaker 2: you think as a Steelers fan or swinging for the 1987 01:36:57,760 --> 01:36:59,160 Speaker 2: fan to see if we can get it done in 1988 01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:02,000 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. If we can't, if we come up short, 1989 01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:05,439 Speaker 2: well guess what Aaron Rodgers is moving on. There wasn't 1990 01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:08,360 Speaker 2: a great quarterback option. They didn't believe in Shador Sanders. 1991 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:10,040 Speaker 2: They weren't gonna move up to the number one pick 1992 01:37:10,040 --> 01:37:12,639 Speaker 2: overall to get cam Ward there. I mean, you're gonna 1993 01:37:12,640 --> 01:37:14,880 Speaker 2: spend on Sam Darnold. Let's see how that plays out. 1994 01:37:15,280 --> 01:37:18,679 Speaker 2: I mean, I think throughout the course of this show tonight, 1995 01:37:18,960 --> 01:37:22,680 Speaker 2: I came in with strong feelings believing that, hey, I 1996 01:37:22,720 --> 01:37:24,800 Speaker 2: would take an over on the Steelers. I think they're 1997 01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:27,639 Speaker 2: a team that can compete in their division. I don't 1998 01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:30,280 Speaker 2: think there's been anything from Steeler fans tonight that would 1999 01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:33,040 Speaker 2: deviate me from that feeling. And I don't think looking 2000 01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:36,960 Speaker 2: at Omar Khan's extension is anything where you say, oh yeah, 2001 01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:41,439 Speaker 2: they're just making everyone comfortable. Now, they're telling him, hey, 2002 01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:44,720 Speaker 2: we like what you're doing. I don't know if ten 2003 01:37:44,760 --> 01:37:46,400 Speaker 2: and seven, ten and seven, and nine and eight is 2004 01:37:46,439 --> 01:37:49,000 Speaker 2: truly Steeler way, but tonight the fans need to be 2005 01:37:49,040 --> 01:37:52,439 Speaker 2: pretty fired up about it going forward. Cautiously optimistic would 2006 01:37:52,439 --> 01:37:54,800 Speaker 2: be the term I use. All Right, I can't wait. 2007 01:37:54,880 --> 01:37:57,000 Speaker 2: Breeze three is back and it's next right here on 2008 01:37:57,040 --> 01:37:58,240 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. 2009 01:37:59,040 --> 01:38:02,360 Speaker 9: Fox Sports has the best sports talk lineup in the nation. 2010 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:06,240 Speaker 9: Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio dot com 2011 01:38:06,560 --> 01:38:10,360 Speaker 9: and within the iHeartRadio app. Search FSR to listen live. 2012 01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:15,000 Speaker 2: All right, it's the Plank Show here on Fox Sports Radio, 2013 01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:18,840 Speaker 2: heading down the home stretch.

Try to 2024 01:38:49,080 --> 01:38:50,920 Speaker 2: do some things to make the fourth of July a 2025 01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 2: little bit more baseball centric, have a subway series, MLBtv 2026 01:38:55,360 --> 01:38:58,880 Speaker 2: was free, and then I think we've spent maybe one 2027 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:02,439 Speaker 2: segment tonight on baseball. So I guess I guess in 2028 01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:06,280 Speaker 2: those instances, I'm part of the problem, right which, again 2029 01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:08,560 Speaker 2: shout out to my guy Michael, who did try to 2030 01:39:08,640 --> 01:39:11,559 Speaker 2: keep baseball a topic on Twitter, who writes, blank, just 2031 01:39:11,600 --> 01:39:15,080 Speaker 2: want to let you know the Rangers play the Padres tomorrow.

It's that time. 2035 01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:28,559 Speaker 2: Let's do a little Breeze three, not one, but three. 2036 01:39:31,240 --> 01:39:32,160 Speaker 2: It's entertainment. 2037 01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:36,840 Speaker 1: It's good, it's Breeze three. 2038 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:40,680 Speaker 3: Let's go bree alrighty. 2039 01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:47,040 Speaker 4: So earlier this week, Ay Adams Strunk, which is such 2040 01:39:47,080 --> 01:39:51,760 Speaker 4: an incredible name, the controlling owner of the Tennessee Titans, 2041 01:39:52,240 --> 01:39:58,639 Speaker 4: recently hosted her daughter Blanche's wedding at Nan Stadium, which 2042 01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:02,479 Speaker 4: is incredible. I think it's kind of awesome to have 2043 01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:06,559 Speaker 4: such a huge event at a stadium. If you have 2044 01:40:06,760 --> 01:40:10,639 Speaker 4: the power, the money, and the opportunity to do it, 2045 01:40:10,760 --> 01:40:14,120 Speaker 4: why not, right, great, awesome. 2046 01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 3: It was kind of cool. 2047 01:40:15,400 --> 01:40:18,240 Speaker 4: So it just kind of got me thinking if you 2048 01:40:18,320 --> 01:40:22,320 Speaker 4: could have a life event or just any kind of something, 2049 01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:24,759 Speaker 4: like if you wanted to like hold like a birthday party, 2050 01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:29,920 Speaker 4: or like a front party, or like get married. I 2051 01:40:29,920 --> 01:40:31,560 Speaker 4: don't want to say funeral because I think that's a 2052 01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:33,760 Speaker 4: little morbid, but if you could throw that in there, 2053 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:40,479 Speaker 4: if you can pick three venues to have something, yeah, for. 2054 01:40:40,439 --> 01:40:43,120 Speaker 2: A major life yes, yes. 2055 01:40:42,960 --> 01:40:44,760 Speaker 4: Or like you know, just like like even just like 2056 01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:48,519 Speaker 4: a birthday party. It's like a life event, right. So yeah, 2057 01:40:48,560 --> 01:40:52,360 Speaker 4: So that was that was my mindset. So I went 2058 01:40:52,520 --> 01:40:56,200 Speaker 4: for my first one. I would want I would want 2059 01:40:56,200 --> 01:40:57,920 Speaker 4: to have a party at like Dodger Stadium. 2060 01:40:58,160 --> 01:40:58,280 Speaker 7: Oh. 2061 01:40:58,280 --> 01:40:59,759 Speaker 3: I think it would be so fun. 2062 01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:02,760 Speaker 4: Yes, like the best food, but not the best food, 2063 01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:05,320 Speaker 4: but yeah, pretty good food and like drinks, everything in 2064 01:41:05,360 --> 01:41:07,120 Speaker 4: the view and the mountains in the back. 2065 01:41:07,160 --> 01:41:08,559 Speaker 3: I think it'd be so pretty. 2066 01:41:08,760 --> 01:41:11,200 Speaker 2: I was telling a story during the break that my 2067 01:41:11,360 --> 01:41:14,280 Speaker 2: son is in town. My son is a student at 2068 01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:16,760 Speaker 2: west Point. He's going into his senior year, and he 2069 01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:20,240 Speaker 2: was in town on leave and he never liked sports 2070 01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:23,639 Speaker 2: growing up, and he didn't realize the free pass he had, 2071 01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:26,519 Speaker 2: I think until he got to West Point. And it's 2072 01:41:26,560 --> 01:41:30,200 Speaker 2: funny because I'll get a text from him randomly on 2073 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:32,760 Speaker 2: a Wednesday night, and he's at every stadium I've never 2074 01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:35,200 Speaker 2: been to yet, a text room. Once he was at 2075 01:41:35,200 --> 01:41:38,320 Speaker 2: Wrigley Field. Got a text from him at a Red Sox game, 2076 01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:41,639 Speaker 2: and just last I guess you could say now year, 2077 01:41:41,760 --> 01:41:43,880 Speaker 2: almost to the day, I got a text from him 2078 01:41:43,920 --> 01:41:46,960 Speaker 2: when he was at Chavez Ravine at Dodger's game. 2079 01:41:47,439 --> 01:41:47,799 Speaker 21: Nice. 2080 01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:49,720 Speaker 2: You know what his dad has never done. He's never 2081 01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:52,280 Speaker 2: been to a Doyer's game. He's a diehard Doyers fan. 2082 01:41:52,320 --> 01:41:53,680 Speaker 2: I've never been. And I've been to a lot of 2083 01:41:53,720 --> 01:41:57,040 Speaker 2: Dodger Cardinal games in Saint Louis because I grew up 2084 01:41:57,040 --> 01:41:59,240 Speaker 2: in Saint Louis, but I never had been to it. 2085 01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:00,560 Speaker 2: I've never Beenravine. 2086 01:42:01,240 --> 01:42:05,360 Speaker 6: You're serious, hand to god, yeah, I know, right, heartbreaking. 2087 01:42:05,479 --> 01:42:07,360 Speaker 4: So every time you've come down here, you've just never 2088 01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:08,120 Speaker 4: gone to a game. 2089 01:42:08,560 --> 01:42:11,280 Speaker 2: The no, it's it they've either been out of town. 2090 01:42:11,320 --> 01:42:12,960 Speaker 2: I had a chance to go to the Rocky Stodgers 2091 01:42:13,040 --> 01:42:15,200 Speaker 2: game last week, but it's like it's a Rocky stay. 2092 01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:19,559 Speaker 2: So I I've never I've never been in town when 2093 01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:22,800 Speaker 2: the Dodgers are actually at home. Yeah, and so it's 2094 01:42:22,880 --> 01:42:25,320 Speaker 2: just never worked out for me. And I've gone a 2095 01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:27,719 Speaker 2: couple of times just to like see the stadium because 2096 01:42:27,720 --> 01:42:30,280 Speaker 2: I'm sure I'd be a bubbling mess if I saw it, 2097 01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:35,559 Speaker 2: but it's it's always closed. A friend of mine took 2098 01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:37,360 Speaker 2: me on the drive around the neighborhood where you can 2099 01:42:37,400 --> 01:42:39,000 Speaker 2: kind of see it because it's literally right in the 2100 01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:41,200 Speaker 2: middle of the neighborhood, and so I kind of got 2101 01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,240 Speaker 2: to experience it. So basically what I'm saying is I 2102 01:42:44,280 --> 01:42:45,960 Speaker 2: would be right there with you because it would at 2103 01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:47,479 Speaker 2: least give me a chance to not only have a 2104 01:42:47,520 --> 01:42:51,000 Speaker 2: life event there, but go into Chavezravine, go into Dodgers 2105 01:42:51,040 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 2: Stadium for the first time in my life. 2106 01:42:52,439 --> 01:42:52,840 Speaker 12: Oh my god. 2107 01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:53,640 Speaker 3: We have to plan that. 2108 01:42:54,000 --> 01:42:56,840 Speaker 2: I know, I know I need to. 2109 01:42:57,080 --> 01:42:59,080 Speaker 3: I'm like, my mouth is like dry candy. 2110 01:42:59,160 --> 01:43:01,320 Speaker 4: I don't you've come down here? 2111 01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:06,200 Speaker 2: So time, I know grew and I didn't get to 2112 01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:09,720 Speaker 2: go my first trip to la came. Gosh, you're like 2113 01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:14,040 Speaker 2: twenty thirteen, so it's we're talking about twelve years where 2114 01:43:14,040 --> 01:43:16,439 Speaker 2: I've been there quite a bit. But it just seems 2115 01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:19,479 Speaker 2: to always fall when the Dodgers aren't at home. Sucks. 2116 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:23,960 Speaker 2: Oh my, yeah, that's why. I didn't mean to take 2117 01:43:23,960 --> 01:43:26,879 Speaker 2: away from the rest of free story. But yeah, it sucks. 2118 01:43:27,280 --> 01:43:27,360 Speaker 16: No. 2119 01:43:27,560 --> 01:43:30,519 Speaker 3: I was just like so surprised. That's just crazy. 2120 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:33,920 Speaker 4: I'm okay, wow, oh my god. Well I want to 2121 01:43:33,960 --> 01:43:37,559 Speaker 4: make that like happen. We I agree, we could do 2122 01:43:37,640 --> 01:43:39,559 Speaker 4: like a tour. You should do a tour there too, 2123 01:43:39,920 --> 01:43:42,679 Speaker 4: do the whole shebang. I'm all about it, all about 2124 01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:43,080 Speaker 4: that too. 2125 01:43:43,320 --> 01:43:45,720 Speaker 2: I would be telling everyone random moments that happened at 2126 01:43:45,720 --> 01:43:47,719 Speaker 2: certain spots in the stadium. Well, this is while jose 2127 01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:50,040 Speaker 2: Offerman booted a ball that seeks thinning. It gets there. 2128 01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:51,800 Speaker 2: You go Cardinals in nineteen ninety nine. 2129 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:54,080 Speaker 3: You can even do the tour yourself. Would be even better. 2130 01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:56,840 Speaker 2: All right, where's number two? Number two? 2131 01:43:57,520 --> 01:44:01,439 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm I have to say I'd want to get 2132 01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:06,519 Speaker 4: married in the Superdome. Yes, I want to get married 2133 01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:09,519 Speaker 4: in the Super Dome. I think that'd be amazing. I 2134 01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:12,280 Speaker 4: don't obviously, I'm not from New Orleans. I have no 2135 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,080 Speaker 4: I have no really tie other than I'm a huge 2136 01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:17,800 Speaker 4: Saints fan. But I think it'd be super fun to 2137 01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:20,200 Speaker 4: get married. There'd be so cool in the dome and 2138 01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:22,800 Speaker 4: then also have like the Saints are coming playing through 2139 01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:25,559 Speaker 4: the speakers, you know. I think that'd be pretty awesome 2140 01:44:25,600 --> 01:44:28,080 Speaker 4: instead of like cool, but like and then also maybe 2141 01:44:28,120 --> 01:44:30,320 Speaker 4: like an orchestra playing that just to make it more 2142 01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:34,400 Speaker 4: like fancy, you know, just you know, class it up 2143 01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:38,080 Speaker 4: just a little bit. And then my last one, I 2144 01:44:38,200 --> 01:44:41,240 Speaker 4: was between two PNC Park. 2145 01:44:42,920 --> 01:44:45,880 Speaker 3: Yes, I would want that stadium. 2146 01:44:45,960 --> 01:44:48,920 Speaker 4: I would want to like put a projector up and 2147 01:44:48,920 --> 01:44:50,800 Speaker 4: then just like watch like a really cool movie, like 2148 01:44:50,840 --> 01:44:53,760 Speaker 4: maybe like a Lord of the Rings Marathon or something. Okay, yeah, 2149 01:44:53,800 --> 01:44:56,840 Speaker 4: and then just that whole backdrop this city in the background. 2150 01:44:57,160 --> 01:44:59,720 Speaker 3: It's nice, beautiful. 2151 01:45:00,360 --> 01:45:01,960 Speaker 2: They do opening day, right. 2152 01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:06,320 Speaker 3: Yes they do, they do. That'd be amazing. So those 2153 01:45:06,360 --> 01:45:07,800 Speaker 3: are those were my few. 2154 01:45:08,360 --> 01:45:12,800 Speaker 2: Okay, I like it so a life event. Where would 2155 01:45:12,800 --> 01:45:16,599 Speaker 2: you want in Breeze three? Mark it to take place 2156 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:21,360 Speaker 2: your dream venus venue based on the celebration of the 2157 01:45:21,400 --> 01:45:24,240 Speaker 2: Titans owner's daughter getting married in Titan State. 2158 01:45:24,360 --> 01:45:28,799 Speaker 6: Well, the places that I've picked, I could also attempt 2159 01:45:28,880 --> 01:45:30,800 Speaker 6: to take care of some other things. So if I 2160 01:45:30,840 --> 01:45:34,720 Speaker 6: had had a Life of Life event at the Coliseum 2161 01:45:34,760 --> 01:45:39,280 Speaker 6: in Rome, I would figure out a way how to 2162 01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:43,760 Speaker 6: get to Coleone Sicily Italy to go see Corleone, to 2163 01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:46,920 Speaker 6: go where Michael was, you know, to go see his 2164 01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:50,000 Speaker 6: dad's place, and then figure out how to get to 2165 01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:53,760 Speaker 6: Tuscany because Diane Lane made a movie there Tuscany blah 2166 01:45:53,800 --> 01:45:57,559 Speaker 6: blah blah. So that's the Rome Italy connection. The next 2167 01:45:57,600 --> 01:46:02,679 Speaker 6: place I was figuring is Sherwood Forest in England, Old 2168 01:46:02,760 --> 01:46:07,960 Speaker 6: robin Hood Green. It's just green everywhere. Sherwood Forest, gigantic place. 2169 01:46:08,400 --> 01:46:11,160 Speaker 6: But being there, I could swing by and do all 2170 01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:16,080 Speaker 6: the London stuff. Go by, see Big Bend, see Piccadilly Squares, 2171 01:46:16,240 --> 01:46:19,679 Speaker 6: see that egg looking building that has the crazy glass. 2172 01:46:20,240 --> 01:46:22,599 Speaker 6: So I could take care of two things there. Then 2173 01:46:22,640 --> 01:46:26,120 Speaker 6: the last place I figured was if I had an event, 2174 01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:30,120 Speaker 6: I would do it in Maui, and then I would 2175 01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:35,000 Speaker 6: go find the location where George Clooney made the movie 2176 01:46:35,040 --> 01:46:37,439 Speaker 6: The Descendants in Hawaii. So I just wanted to see 2177 01:46:37,439 --> 01:46:43,560 Speaker 6: that because Maui the Descendants that hold just everywhere in Hawaii, 2178 01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:47,200 Speaker 6: and maybe go by the set where they did Jurassic Park, 2179 01:46:47,320 --> 01:46:49,479 Speaker 6: so I could take care of all that in one place. 2180 01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:52,800 Speaker 2: So are you a Jurassic Park guy? 2181 01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:55,360 Speaker 6: I liked the movie, but it was just the you know, 2182 01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:57,720 Speaker 6: just seeing Hawaii and all that landscape. 2183 01:46:57,800 --> 01:46:59,920 Speaker 2: That was okay, all right, fair enough, Okay, I've got there. 2184 01:47:00,800 --> 01:47:06,200 Speaker 2: I've got three. My number one. Number one would be 2185 01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:09,599 Speaker 2: Augusta National Golf Course. I don't know, I don't know how, 2186 01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:11,000 Speaker 2: I don't know where. I don't know if it would 2187 01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:13,639 Speaker 2: be in the clubhouse. I don't know where we could 2188 01:47:13,680 --> 01:47:16,960 Speaker 2: put it. But yes, three, what I mean, come on now, 2189 01:47:17,040 --> 01:47:22,360 Speaker 2: let's go right you fall nice work, So give me Augusta, 2190 01:47:22,400 --> 01:47:24,599 Speaker 2: which is kind of funny because I had a roommate 2191 01:47:24,720 --> 01:47:28,360 Speaker 2: that would always call his hotel or his hotel his 2192 01:47:28,720 --> 01:47:32,320 Speaker 2: a dorm room. Augusta never got that one. Number two 2193 01:47:32,400 --> 01:47:35,800 Speaker 2: for me. This is a Homer Pick Gaylord Family Oklahoma 2194 01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:39,639 Speaker 2: Memorial Stadium. So it's owen Field. It's where the Sooners play. 2195 01:47:39,680 --> 01:47:42,479 Speaker 2: I've fallen in love with this place. It would be 2196 01:47:43,240 --> 01:47:46,200 Speaker 2: you know, tenfold right. There's a lot of different reasons, 2197 01:47:46,680 --> 01:47:50,160 Speaker 2: but a lot of my best professional memories have taken 2198 01:47:50,280 --> 01:47:54,599 Speaker 2: place there, personal memories. It's a great place. My funny 2199 01:47:54,600 --> 01:47:58,760 Speaker 2: story way back in the day. I used to be 2200 01:47:59,120 --> 01:48:01,840 Speaker 2: the fill in for five to eight whenever, right before 2201 01:48:01,880 --> 01:48:04,000 Speaker 2: Clay Travis came and I would fill in when there 2202 01:48:04,040 --> 01:48:07,280 Speaker 2: were vacations and then they found better people. So I've 2203 01:48:07,320 --> 01:48:09,880 Speaker 2: obviously upgraded because I'm now on one to four AM. 2204 01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:12,400 Speaker 2: But I would fill in and I would have to 2205 01:48:12,400 --> 01:48:15,559 Speaker 2: do when I first moved to Oklahoma, well, sorry, when 2206 01:48:15,560 --> 01:48:18,840 Speaker 2: I first moved to Norman, Guys, I would have to 2207 01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:21,760 Speaker 2: do the fill ins from the stadium because there was 2208 01:48:21,800 --> 01:48:25,840 Speaker 2: these things called isd in lines, right, yeah, and that 2209 01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:28,519 Speaker 2: was the only place that had them. So I would 2210 01:48:28,560 --> 01:48:31,519 Speaker 2: take all my equipment, I'd take it to the football stadium. 2211 01:48:31,720 --> 01:48:33,720 Speaker 2: I'd sit in the press box and I would do 2212 01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:37,120 Speaker 2: all of my fill ins right there at at Owenfield 2213 01:48:37,280 --> 01:48:40,640 Speaker 2: and it was awesome. Every so often, you know, you 2214 01:48:40,760 --> 01:48:43,559 Speaker 2: notice there'd be someone like walking around. You know it's 2215 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:45,360 Speaker 2: security guard. You get freaked out. It's like what someone 2216 01:48:45,479 --> 01:48:47,880 Speaker 2: doing up there? But yeah, so that's near and dear 2217 01:48:47,880 --> 01:48:51,240 Speaker 2: to my heart. Number two and then number three. Now 2218 01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:53,360 Speaker 2: we're talking about places a lot that I haven't been. 2219 01:48:53,400 --> 01:48:55,400 Speaker 2: I've never been to Dodger Stadium before. I don't think 2220 01:48:55,400 --> 01:48:57,360 Speaker 2: I've ever been to any of the places at Mark listen. 2221 01:48:58,040 --> 01:49:01,519 Speaker 2: But I have been to the LA Coliseum and I 2222 01:49:01,560 --> 01:49:03,720 Speaker 2: know it's I know it's not what it once was. 2223 01:49:04,680 --> 01:49:08,760 Speaker 2: I get it, I understand it. But it's like ten 2224 01:49:08,840 --> 01:49:11,760 Speaker 2: year old Chris would be really excited for something to 2225 01:49:11,800 --> 01:49:16,200 Speaker 2: happen there for Plank's family at an elder age, if 2226 01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:19,600 Speaker 2: you will. But that was I mean, that was the 2227 01:49:19,680 --> 01:49:21,640 Speaker 2: Krim day La Krim. I mean the opening ceremony for 2228 01:49:21,680 --> 01:49:25,000 Speaker 2: the Olympics. Were there, The Raiders played there, Marcus Allen 2229 01:49:25,439 --> 01:49:29,519 Speaker 2: played there, Howie Long, Freaking Jim Pluck at Mark Wilson, 2230 01:49:29,600 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 2: Rusty Hills, all the greats, all historical historically.

And 2234 01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:48,960 Speaker 2: just because still Allegiate stadium is not a home field 2235 01:49:48,960 --> 01:49:51,360 Speaker 2: advantage for the Raids.

Years ago, 2294 01:52:29,439 --> 01:52:33,640 Speaker 2: Dodgers catcher Steve Jeger asked Dodgers President Walter O'Malley for 2295 01:52:33,680 --> 01:52:37,040 Speaker 2: a permission to get married at Dodger Stadium. O'Malley said 2296 01:52:37,080 --> 01:52:42,080 Speaker 2: he was honored, but convinced Iyager that a church is 2297 01:52:42,120 --> 01:52:45,240 Speaker 2: the best place to get married, and then he adds, 2298 01:52:45,280 --> 01:52:47,840 Speaker 2: forget the Raiders. The LA Coliseum was the home of 2299 01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:50,479 Speaker 2: the Rams for over fifty years. Listen, Steve, I understand 2300 01:52:50,479 --> 01:52:53,559 Speaker 2: what you're saying. Okay, But as a little kid, I 2301 01:52:53,560 --> 01:52:57,519 Speaker 2: was a Raiders dude man silver and Black, easy e. 2302 01:52:57,760 --> 01:53:00,000 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, then the Kings had his son 2303 01:53:00,200 --> 01:53:03,280 Speaker 2: become silver and Black. It's just that that's in my blood. 2304 01:53:04,080 --> 01:53:07,639 Speaker 2: I appreciate the Rams contribution to that. I will say 2305 01:53:10,280 --> 01:53:12,840 Speaker 2: the Rams played quite a few games when they moved 2306 01:53:12,920 --> 01:53:15,120 Speaker 2: back right in the coliseum. 2307 01:53:15,200 --> 01:53:17,200 Speaker 3: They did. I actually saw them play the Saints there. 2308 01:53:17,479 --> 01:53:21,040 Speaker 2: Yes, they had a playoff game there. It was awesome 2309 01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:24,000 Speaker 2: and it is it.

Mets take Game one thanks 2337 01:54:47,560 --> 01:54:51,040 Speaker 2: to Jeff McNeil, who had a flair for the dramatics 2338 01:54:51,040 --> 01:54:53,640 Speaker 2: in the game. Hits a two run homer in the 2339 01:54:53,640 --> 01:54:55,800 Speaker 2: bottom of the seventh inning to give the Mets the lead, 2340 01:54:55,880 --> 01:54:58,520 Speaker 2: and then all was sudden and done. Mets go on 2341 01:54:58,560 --> 01:55:02,320 Speaker 2: to win the game six to five. Uh, listen, maybe 2342 01:55:02,360 --> 01:55:04,080 Speaker 2: it's good that I can't get my highlights to play 2343 01:55:04,080 --> 01:55:07,120 Speaker 2: because I was gonna play some Dodger highlights. Maybe it's 2344 01:55:07,400 --> 01:55:12,760 Speaker 2: maybe it's for the best because as far as disappointing performances, dude, 2345 01:55:13,560 --> 01:55:18,000 Speaker 2: I get it. You're gonna have those days whenever you're relying. 2346 01:55:18,040 --> 01:55:21,520 Speaker 2: As much as the Dodgers, unfortunately, are on a bit 2347 01:55:21,560 --> 01:55:26,040 Speaker 2: of a makeshift pitching staff. At times, you're gonna have 2348 01:55:26,080 --> 01:55:30,240 Speaker 2: those moments where it's just, uh, okay, I get it, 2349 01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:34,360 Speaker 2: I get it. It's just not gonna go well. And 2350 01:55:34,520 --> 01:55:39,760 Speaker 2: for for La, it was not a good day, not 2351 01:55:39,920 --> 01:55:43,480 Speaker 2: a good day from start to finish.

Oral Herscheiser 2356 01:55:58,960 --> 01:56:01,840 Speaker 2: did have a funny line during the broadcast tonight where 2357 01:56:01,840 --> 01:56:05,440 Speaker 2: he said that the Astros here's the pitch. Oh, hold 2358 01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:08,280 Speaker 2: on there, the Astros are hitting the Dodgers like they 2359 01:56:08,360 --> 01:56:10,120 Speaker 2: know what's coming.

It hit the video. 2393 01:57:55,080 --> 01:57:56,280 Speaker 10: Board on the fly. 2394 01:57:58,040 --> 01:58:00,800 Speaker 2: It was not a good day for the sat His Cardinals, 2395 01:58:01,080 --> 01:58:04,840 Speaker 2: as the Cubs beat him eleven to three in a 2396 01:58:04,880 --> 01:58:07,520 Speaker 2: game where I'm checking this to make sure that it's right, 2397 01:58:08,320 --> 01:58:10,200 Speaker 2: because there's a part of me that just won't allow 2398 01:58:10,320 --> 01:58:14,240 Speaker 2: myself to believe that the Cubs hit eight home runs yesterday, 2399 01:58:14,760 --> 01:58:19,320 Speaker 2: but they did eight. Steve de Sager had this note, 2400 01:58:19,920 --> 01:58:22,320 Speaker 2: there were forty eight home runs hitt in Major League 2401 01:58:22,360 --> 01:58:28,080 Speaker 2: Baseball today, forty eight including another one from Cal Raleigh, who, 2402 01:58:28,720 --> 01:58:31,520 Speaker 2: I mean, always starting to pay attention to this guy, 2403 01:58:31,600 --> 01:58:34,880 Speaker 2: maybe I don't know, maybe giving a chase to the 2404 01:58:34,920 --> 01:58:40,120 Speaker 2: single season record. Dude, Raley's been on fire. The Mariners 2405 01:58:40,160 --> 01:58:42,920 Speaker 2: win the game, let's see what we didn't have the 2406 01:58:42,960 --> 01:58:46,040 Speaker 2: highlight from it. Unfortunately, that's funny based on the conversation 2407 01:58:46,160 --> 01:58:49,400 Speaker 2: we were just having during the break, Bree, But dudes 2408 01:58:49,440 --> 01:58:52,720 Speaker 2: on fire. I mean, he is absolutely on fire. Sixth 2409 01:58:52,760 --> 01:58:56,960 Speaker 2: inning home run. Mariners won it by a final score 2410 01:58:57,000 --> 01:59:01,440 Speaker 2: of six to zero and four. Raleigh already you know again, 2411 01:59:01,600 --> 01:59:04,040 Speaker 2: we're not quite to the midpoint yet of the season, 2412 01:59:04,640 --> 01:59:06,480 Speaker 2: and the Baseball All Star Game kind of like the 2413 01:59:06,560 --> 01:59:10,400 Speaker 2: NBA All Star Game. Whenever it's past the halfway point. Anyway, 2414 01:59:10,760 --> 01:59:13,480 Speaker 2: look at thirty five right now for cal Raley, so 2415 01:59:13,840 --> 01:59:19,160 Speaker 2: absolutely outstanding, uh to start his career for cal Rally? 2416 01:59:19,200 --> 01:59:23,080 Speaker 2: All right, with all the highlights a side, it is time. 2417 01:59:23,440 --> 01:59:25,680 Speaker 2: It is time for the plank parlay. Here we are 2418 01:59:26,200 --> 01:59:28,680 Speaker 2: a lot of people look at parlay's as what profitability. 2419 01:59:28,800 --> 01:59:31,480 Speaker 2: I like the amount of money I could win, probability 2420 01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:34,280 Speaker 2: based on what it shows me, I could possibly want 2421 01:59:34,040 --> 01:59:36,720 Speaker 2: the plan. You decide if you want to buy yourself. 2422 01:59:36,880 --> 01:59:39,280 Speaker 1: It's the plank parlay. 2423 01:59:39,400 --> 01:59:42,320 Speaker 2: It's how we wrap up the show. Last one we 2424 01:59:42,360 --> 01:59:45,160 Speaker 2: did hit we had two in a row. So it 2425 01:59:45,240 --> 01:59:50,040 Speaker 2: is time free three leg parlay, not three team there's 2426 01:59:50,040 --> 01:59:53,840 Speaker 2: only two teams involved here. I'm gonna go with Poppy. 2427 01:59:53,960 --> 01:59:56,200 Speaker 2: The hear that, Poppy, I'm going with you tonight. I'm 2428 01:59:56,200 --> 01:59:59,600 Speaker 2: gonna take the Dodgers with the money line, but I'm 2429 01:59:59,600 --> 02:00:01,520 Speaker 2: gonna take the under eight and a half. I know 2430 02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:05,440 Speaker 2: it's a risky play. It's a risky play, but I 2431 02:00:05,480 --> 02:00:09,560 Speaker 2: think after nineteen combined runs, I think there's a really 2432 02:00:09,600 --> 02:00:12,560 Speaker 2: good chance that you see a little bit more of 2433 02:00:12,600 --> 02:00:15,640 Speaker 2: a pitcher's duel tonight between the Dodgers and the Astros. 2434 02:00:15,920 --> 02:00:18,520 Speaker 2: So give me the Dodgers the under eight and a 2435 02:00:18,560 --> 02:00:20,960 Speaker 2: half of that game. And you just heard Cayl Roley's 2436 02:00:20,960 --> 02:00:23,320 Speaker 2: thirty fifth home run of the season. Give me the 2437 02:00:23,320 --> 02:00:27,120 Speaker 2: Mariners money line against the Pirates tonight. Take money lines 2438 02:00:27,120 --> 02:00:30,480 Speaker 2: to the Dodgers and the Mariners. Give me the under 2439 02:00:30,560 --> 02:00:33,960 Speaker 2: eight and a half.
