Speaker 2: we have a very very busy sports day, but rich

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 2: certainly the story of the moment. President Biden has announced

10
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: that he has officially suspended his efforts to be re

11
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 2: elected president of the United States. We don't know where

12
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 2: we're going from here, but that's a big story that Indeed,

13
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 2: President Biden has announced that he has suspended his efforts

14
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: for re election.

15
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, He wrote a statement, sent it to the press,

16
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: posted it to Twitter just moments ago. Over the past

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: last three and a half years, we have made great

18
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: progress in a nation. He goes on to say, I

19
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: know none of this could have been done without you,

20
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 1: the American people. Together, we overcame a once in a

21
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: century pandemic, worst economic It continues, and we've revitalized and

22
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: strengthen our alliances. It has been the greatest honor of

23
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: my life to serve you as your president. And while

24
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe

25
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: it is in the best interest of my party in

26
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: the country for me to stand down and focus solely

27
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of

28
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: the term.

29
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not a political show, so we're not going

30
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 2: to get into the politics of it. But certainly a

31
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 2: president stepping down is a huge story. And obviously we

32
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 2: haven't heard this since LBJ decided back in nineteen sixty

33
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 2: eight to not seek reelection. So this is history in

34
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: the making. So just keep it here and we will

35
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 2: continue on with the updates. But again, President Biden not

36
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: seeking reelection. He is made it official in his own words.

37
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: All Right, quite a day in sports here, Ritchie. I

38
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 2: want to start off with congratulating Xanderschoffley. Prior to San

39
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: Diego State. He is now a double major winner. It

40
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 2: is when you think about it, there's only four majors,

41
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 2: and the greatest golfers in the world dream of winning one.

42
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 2: And I felt last night I was doing my TV

43
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 2: show up here in LA and they asked me Okay,

44
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 2: make a prediction for tomorrow, and I picked Xander, And

45
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 2: I said, the reason I'm picking Xander is is that

46
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: the pressure's off.

47
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 1: Now.

48
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: Trying to get that first one is like the real pressure.

49
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 2: But once you got one in the bag, pressure's off.

50
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: Shot a sixty five today. I mean, if you were

51
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 2: justin Rose and you say you're gonna shoot sixty seven,

52
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: or Billy Horschell shot a sixty eight today, you say

53
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 2: I'm in.

54
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 3: I'm in.

55
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: No.

56
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: Xander shot sixty five today to win his second major

57
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 2: of the year. It's a very short list of golfers

58
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 2: that have won two majors in the same year. We

59
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 2: have been following his career throughout obviously with his ties

60
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 2: to San Diego State, he'd been knocking on the door

61
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 2: for years. But for him to be a double major winner,

62
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: that's a huge story.

63
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: There, Rich, it is a huge story. And like you said,

64
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: with only four majors and everybody vying to win these

65
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: to legitimize their legacy as one of the greats in golf,

66
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: or like we know, sometimes there's one hit wonders where

67
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: a guy will, you know, find a way to win

68
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: a major. It was a one off weekend lucky, if

69
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: you want to call it that. I think it's definitely

70
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: an intersection where luck is involved when somebody does something

71
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: fantastic in sports, but it's not only luck, obviously, and

72
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: then sometimes it never happens again. So to be able

73
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: to have that level of success, and he's been Xander

74
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: Schoffley very successful on the PGA Tour for a very

75
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: long time now, even though he's a young golfer. To

76
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: have that level of success and then be able to

77
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: replicated another major, it it all of a sudden, It

78
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: adds to the legacy. It all of a sudden start

79
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: the conversation starts spinning, Well, how close can he get

80
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 1: to the greats? Because once you win a couple, people

81
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: start projecting and predicting, well, when's his third coming? You know,

82
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 1: win's his fourth? You know, if you do happen to

83
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: win a third and now you have three, you're starting

84
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: to land yourself into rarefied air. So this is just

85
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: potentially the beginning for a sturdy and talented and young

86
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: a golfer as Xander Schaffley.

87
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 2: Well here's the fact, and the Golf Hall of Fame,

88
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 2: every single golfer, with the exception of a couple of

89
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: Open champions from like the eighteen seventies. You win three majors,

90
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 2: automatic Hall of Fame and so that's where Xander Schaffley is.

91
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 2: I think he'll be there anyway. He's been a great

92
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: golfer for years. But he wins the Open Championship and

93
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: closing sixty five. And by the way, I found an

94
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 2: interesting So he played his final round with Justin Rose.

95
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 3: Rose had a great round.

96
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 2: You know, he's obviously he wanted to win the Open

97
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 2: Championship in the worst way. But understand this, these are

98
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,599
Speaker 2: the two guys that have won the Olympic gold medal

99
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: in golf.

100
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 3: So Justin Rose.

101
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 2: When golf was brought back in twenty sixteen, and then

102
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 2: three years ago the one year postponed Tokyo Games, it

103
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 2: was Ander Schoffley that won the gold medal. So the

104
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 2: two guys, as we now are days away from the

105
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: opening of the Paris Olympics, the two guys in golf

106
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: that had actually won the gold medal were paired up

107
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: in the final round of the Open and they finished

108
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: one two.

109
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's amazing, It really is amazing. It's look,

110
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: golf is a tricky game. From one standpoint and one

111
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: standpoint only. And I firmly believe this. There's a lot

112
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: of good golfers out there. You can find them on

113
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 1: every driving range, you can find them on every country club,

114
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: you can find them, frankly, on every municipal course. There's

115
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: usually at least one really good golfer who passed through.

116
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: And I'm not talking about just good. I'm talking about

117
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: somebody who can shoot par you know, or close, and

118
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: who potentially, when you really think about it, like geez,

119
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 1: you know, I was out a Tory and I saw

120
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: this guy ripping up this course and he was just

121
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: going in as a as a single, and we had

122
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: a group of three, and he joined our group and

123
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 1: he he he roasted the south course, you know, at

124
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: Tory Pines, that's where the Farmer's Insurance Open is. But

125
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: here's the difference between a PGA golfer and a really

126
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: good or even great amateur golfer. On the PGA Tour, everybody,

127
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: not just the group that you joined as a one

128
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: off single. Everybody is watching you swing your golf club.

129
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 1: And those who can somehow just completely make all that

130
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: pressure vanish and can live in the moment and operate

131
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: as if they're you know, at a practice round or

132
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,159
Speaker 1: they're at their favorite course back home and it's a

133
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten yard shot to the green, and yeah,

134
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: maybe you're one stroke off the leader and you got

135
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: to sink a birdie putt from eleven feet out. But

136
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: but you're just you're just able to block all that

137
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: out and just operate the way you always have. That's

138
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: the difference. And it is such a mental game, that

139
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: is the whole banana. And if you can somehow get

140
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: there like Showfley, like you know, some of the other greats,

141
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 1: you know, Mickelson or Tiger of course, or Jack or

142
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: Arnie like well, those are guys who are mentally stronger

143
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: than everybody else in the field when they were playing.

144
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 3: You mentioned Tiger Woods.

145
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: And during this week, as Tiger got ready to play

146
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 2: in the Open Championship, Colin Montgomery, the always controversial Klin Montgomery,

147
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 2: who won a total of zero major championships in his career,

148
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: came out and said going into this Open that watching

149
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 2: Tiger play now is very sad and that he needs

150
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 2: to step away. He needs to step away, he needs

151
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 2: to you know, he can't play at that level anymore.

152
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: And Tiger was told of this and responded, and again

153
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 2: this was before the tournament that well, first of all,

154
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 2: as an Open champion, which Colin is not, I am

155
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 2: free to play in this Open up until the age

156
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: of sixty, and he wants to do so.

157
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 1: Well.

158
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: As we know, he once again was non competitive, did

159
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 2: not even come close to making the cut. The one

160
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: thing is this is the first year in four years

161
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 2: that he actually played in all four majors. He made

162
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 2: the cut at the Masters, ended up finishing the last

163
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 2: dead last of all those that actually made the cut,

164
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 2: and then he missed the cut at the PGA US

165
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: Open and the Open Championship. I kept saying this years

166
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: ago that I never envisioned Tiger as a guy that

167
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 2: just would be a ceremonial guy. Arnold Palmer did that

168
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 2: Jack to a lesser extent. When Jack really started to

169
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 2: fall off, he finally decided I've had enough.

170
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 3: I never thought Tiger was going to be that.

171
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously, he's got a billion dollars, he could

172
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: do anything, but the idea of just showing up for

173
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 2: the majors and never playing any other golf tournaments. When

174
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 2: these courses are set up for such you know, the

175
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 2: extreme Golf test that being a major championship.

176
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 3: Does that How does that sit with you?

177
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 2: Do you say to yourself, well, I like just to

178
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: see him out on the course. I'm gonna you know, savor,

179
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 2: you know the idea that that's Tiger Woods, if not

180
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 2: the greatest, one of the two greatest golfers in the

181
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: history of the game. Or do you say to yourself,

182
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 2: I've seen enough. He needs to step aside. How do

183
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 2: you feel about that?

184
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: It's so funny that you brought this up and asked

185
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: that question this way, because I wrote a tweet about

186
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 1: this yesterday and I've been thinking about it a lot,

187
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: because a lot of people have talked about how Tiger

188
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: Woods should retire. In fact, Colin Montgomery, who's a Scottish golfer,

189
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: uh you know, and and spoke out publicly about this

190
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: before the tournament began, and Tiger kind of snapped back

191
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: at him. He was like, well, Colin, he doesn't he

192
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: doesn't have an exemption until he's sixty. I do. Because

193
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: he's never won the Open Championship. I did. So Colin

194
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,719
Speaker 1: can't make that decision, but I can. And so it

195
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: was a little snippy. It was a little snappy, but

196
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: so was Collin's remarks.

197
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, well Colin has been known to do that, by

198
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 2: the way. So no love loss between Tiger and Colin Montgomery.

199
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: No, No, certainly not. Here's my thoughts. I watch golf

200
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: for Tiger. I know I'm more interested in golf because

201
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: of Tiger. I started watching golf because of Tiger in

202
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 1: the first place. I am supportive of Tiger. Whether he

203
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,960
Speaker 1: is on top of the leaderboard on a Sunday at

204
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: the Masters, or he's shoot plus fifteen and twenty five

205
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 1: shots off the leader on a Friday or a Saturday,

206
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 1: I don't care. I'll continue watching him. And and you know,

207
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: I think it's it's very easy for many of us

208
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: to to try to project ourselves in that situation. It's

209
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 1: easy for us to imagine if we were Tiger. It's

210
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: very hard to actually be Tiger Woods and actually see

211
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: your skills diminishing as a result of injuries or hardships

212
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: that you faced over the course of your very long

213
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: life in front of the public eye. I mean, this

214
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: guy has been famous since he's three years old. He's

215
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: into his forties now, you know, so he's he's one

216
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: of these figures who's had to deal with a lot,

217
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: and he's had to deal with it all on the

218
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: front page of the sports section and sometimes on the

219
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: front page of the news, And so you think you

220
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: could make this decision, but you actually have no idea

221
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: because you haven't You haven't walked a mile on is shoes.

222
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: You don't understand what it's like when you've tasted greatness

223
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: and now you're falling back to the mortal realm. It's

224
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: impossible to describe how disappointing that must be. I felt

225
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: it in a much smaller way. I was never as

226
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 1: big of an athlete as Tiger Woods. I was never

227
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: as great at my sport as Tiger was, But I

228
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: know what it feels like to lay down the sword

229
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: once and for all. When I retired from football, or

230
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: really when the sport retired me, it was one of

231
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: the one of the worst feelings I've ever felt in

232
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: my life. It was like grieving the loss of somebody

233
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: I loved more than anybody I've ever met. And that's

234
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: the reality of sport. You commit your life to something

235
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: that literally guides and shapes you from the time you

236
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: were young until you have to say goodbye to it

237
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: forever it's like losing a parent. In some cases, it's

238
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: worse because maybe you love sports more than you love

239
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: your parents. I'm I mean, there's not everybody's upbringings all

240
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: that great. Maybe sports is what saved your life. So

241
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 1: for Tiger Woods, how many times has golf been there

242
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: when nobody else feels like nobody else in the world

243
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: has been there for you? And you're gonna tell him

244
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: to retire, You're gonna tell him win. Enough's enough. I'm sorry.

245
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 1: That's a Tiger Woods decision, and I'm supportive of it.

246
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 2: I agree with you one hundred percent on that. I mean,

247
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 2: he can play as long as he wants. By the way,

248
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 2: over the last ten years, in twenty four major tournament

249
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 2: starts his last twenty four, he has either missed the

250
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 2: cut or withdrawn in fourteen of the twenty four over

251
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 2: the last ten years. So I mean he did have

252
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 2: his miracle run to win that Masters. Obviously in twenty nineteen,

253
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 2: we can savor the moment. I think after winning that Masters,

254
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 2: at the post tournament press conference, he made it clear

255
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 2: to everyone it doesn't mean I'm back. It means that

256
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 2: everything worked out for me today to put on this

257
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: green jacket one last time, so we'll see how all

258
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 2: plays out. The other side story quickly was, of course

259
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 2: Rory McElroy coming off the devastating finish at the US Open.

260
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 3: How would he react?

261
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: His score was as bad as Tigers and he had

262
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 2: made a very quick exit from this Open championship. So

263
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 2: Xander Shoffley a double major winner doesn't happen a lot.

264
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 2: Tiger used to do it on almost a regular basis,

265
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 2: but for the mere Mortals.

266
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 3: It is quite an accomplishment. All Right, we got a

267
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 3: lot to talk about today.

268
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 2: By the way, later on the show, Rich, We're gonna

269
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 2: have John Paul Morosi join us live from Cooperstown. It

270
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 2: is Baseball Hall of Fame Induction day, so he will

271
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 2: join us live from Cooperstown. We'll also get into NFL football.

272
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 2: Dare I say we are eleven days away.

273
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 3: From the Hall of Fame game, I mean two weeks

274
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 3: away from the Hall of Fame.

275
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: Tame we made it.

276
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 3: I mean we are getting so close.

277
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 2: But on the other side, I want to get to

278
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 2: the countdown to the start of the Olympics. We what

279

Speaker 2: and basketball yesterday.

281
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 3: Should it be a warning sign? And should we even

282
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 3: really care.

283
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,840

Speaker 3: off the air.

318
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 2: So Rich, we are going to have the beginning of

319
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: the Paris Olympics by the week's end. And I said

320
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 2: this yesterday, and I know I've said it in the

321
00:16:54,800 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 2: past when we talk about athletes that compete in the

322
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 2: Olympic Games, and I'm specifically talking about the Summer Games,

323
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: not the Winter Games.

324
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 3: Sure, there are three sports.

325
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:14,120
Speaker 2: In my opinion, whose athletes in those sports their careers

326
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 2: are defined by what they do in the Olympics. Track

327
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 2: and field, swimming, and gymnastics. Those are the three sports

328
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 2: that I see in the Summer Games, where the athletes

329
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 2: that compete their careers are defined by what they did

330
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:37,719
Speaker 2: in the Olympics. Sports where it doesn't have any baron

331
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 2: includes basketball, right, So we've had NBA players competing in

332
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 2: the Olympics since the Dream Team of nineteen ninety two.

333
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 2: Let me give you an example about defining a career

334
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 2: Carmelo Anthony. You look back at Carmelo Anthony's career, he

335
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 2: had his one great freshman year leading Syracuse to a

336
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 2: national championship. His NBA career is defined by two things.

337
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 2: He scored a lot of points, and he never won

338
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 2: a championship. And if your argument is who whoa, whoa whoa,

339
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 2: he won three Olympic gold medals, that gets a big yawn.

340
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 2: In fact, do we even remember from year to year

341
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 2: who's actually on the Olympic team in terms of the

342
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 2: NBA stars. Maybe in four when they blew it lost

343
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,239
Speaker 2: three games during those Olympics and walked away with a

344
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: bronze medal. We remember that. So for me, when I

345
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 2: look at NBA players competing Olympics, you have really nothing

346
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 2: to gain and everything to lose.

347
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 3: And yesterday, watching our.

348
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: Well the oldest Olympic team ever assembled by Team USA

349
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 2: have to go down the wire against South Sedan to

350
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 2: hang on for a one point victory is not probably

351
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 2: a good omen for the upcoming games. I called for

352
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 2: the immediate firing.

353
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 3: A Steve Kerr. You know I feel about Steve Kurbridge,

354
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 3: you know, I mean.

355
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 2: He'd find smug and for him to actually I didn't

356
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 2: even see his composed game comments till later in the

357
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 2: day when he said I think this was good for us.

358
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 2: It was a wake up call. And I'm like, really

359
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 2: a wake up call. You're less than a week away

360
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 2: from the Olympics and you're forced to play Lebron James

361
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 2: to the final minute to hang on for a victory

362
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 2: against South Sudan. So let me ask you this. Let's

363
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 2: be honest. When you watched this game, I take you

364
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 2: to watch it. I did, Who are you rooting for

365
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 2: at the end of that game?

366
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 1: Well, it's so funny that you mentioned that, because sports, boy,

367
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: are they a tricky tricky thing? Because I, one hundred percent,

368
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: because of my national pride, was rooting and was happy

369
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: for the United States victory. There's no question about it. However,

370
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 1: because of what I am as a sports watcher and

371
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 1: what I know as a form professional athlete, how hard

372
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:07,120
Speaker 1: it is to get that shot and to put yourself

373
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: in position to, you know, potentially break through and the

374
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: sacrifice and all the things like this would have been

375
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: the greatest victory hands down for any of these players

376
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 1: in their entire life, had they pulled it off. And

377
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: just knowing, just knowing that watching this game, even though

378
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,679
Speaker 1: ultimately does it, does it really matter. I mean, I guess,

379
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: I guess not. It's not for the Olympic gold. I mean,

380
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 1: it could be a forgettable footnote in the history of

381
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: Olympic sports. But for them it would undeniably be the

382
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: biggest win of all their basketball lives. And so there

383
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 1: was a piece of me that was like, boy, I'll

384
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 1: tell you what I think. I'd be happy with whatever

385
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 1: result comes out of this.

386
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 3: Forty three point hundred dogs.

387
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.

388
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 2: Can you imagine if you had bet the money line

389
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 2: and they had won? Well, I mean one right, what

390
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 2: it had to be right money line? I would be

391
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 2: working here the next day. I wouldn't huh, I said,

392
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 2: I would not be working here the next day, Yeah,

393
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 2: I mean i'd be.

394
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 3: I would imagine the money line rich, I mean, it

395
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 3: had to be what one hundred and one?

396
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: I would imagine. So, and if you bet.

397
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: Like a thousand dollars on one hundred and one and

398
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 3: walk away with a hundred grand I think it'd be

399
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 3: more than one hundred to one.

400
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 2: It would be, by the way, if I if I

401
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 2: did have Sedan on that the final sequence with the misshot,

402
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,639
Speaker 2: the two players from Sadan actually start of bumping in

403
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 2: each other for the initial rebound, and then the the

404
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 2: guy from Sadan gets his hands on the ball and

405
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 2: he starts to go up and he gets hacked.

406
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 3: At the end of that game, what's the replay? He

407
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 3: got hacked, but they waved it off. Think of a

408
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 3: game over game over USA, USA, I would have gone nuts.

409
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I'll tell you. One of the one

410
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 1: of the things that I do believe in sports, though,

411
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 1: is being hum is a very important part of the

412
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: process being humbled. Look, you talk to any prize fighter,

413
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: I mean any prize fighter, They've gotten their ass kicked,

414
00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,360
Speaker 1: There's no question about it. I mean even Floyd Madweather,

415
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 1: who never lost a fight, He'll tell you about some

416
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: whoopings that he's taken over the course of his life.

417
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 1: Because you can't be a great boxer and not get

418
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: your head kicked in every once in a while. I mean,

419
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 1: same thing with football players, same thing with baseball players,

420
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: and certainly the same thing with basketball players and it

421
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: being a team sport, those beatings they're a little bit different, right,

422
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: It does sort of sometimes, especially when you're a good

423
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 1: team and you get beaten by a far inferior team,

424
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: sometimes it feels like a calamity of errors. Like sometimes

425
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 1: it feels like, well, anything that could have gone wrong

426
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: did go wrong. It's Murphy's law, right, and so occasionally

427
00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: the right constellation of missed opportunities or regrettable moments adds

428
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: up to be a loss. In this case for the

429
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: Team USA. They ultimately prevailed. But I do believe what

430
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 1: Steve Kerr said when he said, hey, you know, this

431
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 1: is good for us, because I do think that Team

432
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: USA needs to understand a little humility heading into the

433
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: Olympic Games because the world's catching up. I'm not saying

434
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 1: that a forty three point underdog should have any chance

435
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: to beat Team USA, but I should say the NBA

436
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: has made basketball and international sport. They have opened the

437
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: doors to welcome in draft picks from the far reaches

438
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 1: of the planet, and as a result, there are young

439
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: kids in every neighborhood around the world who are thinking,

440
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: maybe I could play in the NBA too. And when

441
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: that's the case, if you're going to show up on

442
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 1: an Olympic floor, you better be ready for some talented

443
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 1: basketball players because they can come at they can come

444
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: from anywhere now and it's a result of you know,

445
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: some of that whatever you want to call it greed

446
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: or generosity on display from the NBA trying to shepherd

447
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 1: in a new era of international basketball and they've successfully

448
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: done so.

449
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what is trending right now

450
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,680

00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 7: were like, is this breaking.

463
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:48,919
Speaker 8: News for Fox Sports Radio?

00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,639

465
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 6: the world.

466
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 2: Well, it's amazing because this story about President Biden decided

467
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: to suspend his effort to be re elected. You had

468
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 2: it before any of the other news outlets had it.

469
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 2: I'm looking at you know, CNN, I'm looking at Fox,

470
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 2: I'm looking at AMSB, I'm looking at all these made

471
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 2: No one had this.

472
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 8: No, I followed President If.

473
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 3: You were listening to Fox Sports Radio, you heard it first.

474
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, I followed President Biden. So I saw his tweet. Now,

475
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 6: Bo is the one who pointed it out to me.

476
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 8: For what right?

477
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 6: I went straight to Twitter and there it was because

478
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:25,919
Speaker 6: I follow our already President Biden.

479
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 8: So it was he who broke the news in a

480
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 8: letter to the American people.

481
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 9: And I had been like talking to myself being like,

482
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 9: should I ask Scott Shapiro if if we should do

483
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 9: this if this happens, and I I didn't because you know,

484
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 9: what were the chances that it would actually happen around

485
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 9: the air?

486
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 3: But then I just played the sounder anyway for breaking news?

487
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: Why not?

488
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: So basically our steam team here on this show pulled rank.

489
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 8: Yes we did, Yes, exactly.

490
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 1: I don't.

491
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 3: Okay, somebody's got to step up.

492
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, somebody's got to step up, that is right.

493
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 6: Xander Showfley step today at the one hundred and fifty

494
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 6: second Open.

495
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 8: He shot a six under sixty five for the final round.

496
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 6: He wins it. It's the second major win of his career.

497
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 6: Just three months ago he won his first one. You

498
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 6: were just talking about it. The first one is the

499
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 6: hardest one. Now there's no pressure. He's won another one.

500
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 8: Justin Rose.

501
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 6: Billy Horschel tied for second place and ended seven under

502
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 6: par overall in the NBA Celtics Ford. Sam Houser, one

503
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 6: of the NBA's most accurate three point shooters, has agreed

504
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 6: to a four year, forty five million dollar contract extension.

505
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 6: Let's move on to Major League Baseball, where the Twins

506
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 6: are now beating the Brewers to zero bottom of the

507
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 6: second inning. They also have the bases loaded, but they're

508
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 6: down to their final out of the inning. The Nationals

509
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 6: are beating the Reds two to one top of the

510
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 6: fourth inning. The Phillies are blanking the Pirates to zero.

511
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 6: Top of the fourth. The Cardinals have hit three homers.

512
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 6: Paul Goldschmidt, Alec Burlison and Lars and Noukebar have homers,

513
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 6: so they're beating the Braves three to one.

514
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 8: Top of the fifth inning.

515
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 6: The Razor up on the Yankees and the Bronx one zero.

516
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 8: Bottom of the third.

517
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 6: The Blue Jays are beating the Tigers three zero, bottom

518
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 6: of the fourth because George Springer has homework twice for Toronto.

519
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 6: The Padres are beating the Guardians to zero top of

520
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 6: the fourth inning as well.

521
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 8: Back to you guys.

522
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 3: All right, Monzie, thank you very much. We will check

523
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 3: in with you a little bit later on.

524
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 2: Steve Harbin and Rich Ornberg here Fox Sports a Sunday.

525
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 3: All right, I wanted to.

526
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 2: I wanted to get to a story Rich, you know

527
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 2: coming up in the Olympics in twenty twenty eight, with

528
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 2: the games coming to Los Angeles, We're going to be introduced.

529
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 3: To flag football at the Olympics.

530
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 2: And I saw that Mike Florio posted a story in

531
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 2: Pro Football Talk talking about the NFL getting really behind

532
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 2: flag football, and basically gist of the story was, where

533
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 2: are they going with this? The Pro Bowl is already

534
00:27:56,359 --> 00:28:01,959
Speaker 2: a flag football game. The NFL is facing lawsuits up

535
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: to the tune of about fourteen billion dollars for paying

536
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 2: off those that have been injured playing this sport. If

537
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: flag football becomes all the rage, because men, women, everybody

538
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 2: can play flag football, and obviously the health risk are

539
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 2: far less than they are in tackle football. And he said, yeah,

540
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 2: maybe this is the NFL's way of getting ahead of

541
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 2: the games, saying it's not gonna happen this Year's not

542
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 2: gonna happen five years from now, but twenty.

543
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 3: Years from now, thirty years from now.

544
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 2: I was sort of talking to everybody here in the

545
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 2: building yesterday saying, there's two things are going to happen

546
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 2: in your lifetime.

547
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 3: Because everyone's much younger than me.

548
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 2: One we're gonna have human beings walking on Mars, and

549
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 2: two you're gonna see the elimination.

550
00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 3: Of tackle football.

551
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 2: Do you think we'll ever get to that point where

552
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 2: the NFL will abandon tackling and be able to survive.

553
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: No, no, I I never say never. I can't see it.

554
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: Though I'm not saying it won't happen, but I can't

555
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 1: see a way where you are going to, essentially, in

556
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: my opinion, euthanize the sport. I think the death of

557
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: football will be the day you take the violent aspect

558
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: out of football. I think our culture appreciates gladiators. I

559
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 1: think our culture, our culture appreciates combat combatants who are

560
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: risking more than just what you know, being out of breath,

561
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 1: maybe getting a side stitch, maybe having you know, I

562
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: don't be wrong, you could get severely injured in flag football,

563
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: you know, non contact injuries, ACL's, achilles tears. All those

564
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: things can happen of course in flag football too. But

565
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: it isn't it interesting? How you know? Boxing used to

566
00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: be the United States most popular sport at a time.

567
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: Now NFL is the United States most popular sport. People

568
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: love seeing somebody take real risks with their life to

569
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 1: do something that pulls them out of I don't know,

570
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 1: ordinary circumstances to become superstars. I think it's I think

571
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: it's the Cinderella story that everybody enjoys hearing when when

572
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of skin in the game, when

573
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: there's a little bit of blood on the line, people

574
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: seem to perk up a little bit more. And I

575
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: think it's because it's almost ancestral. I think that we

576
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 1: come from a breed of human being. If you trace

577
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: back our earliest footsteps to when we were living in

578
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: caves and chasing people away with sharpened sticks so that

579
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: we protect our cave of from invade, and then civilizations

580
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: we are a warring people. Everybody on this planet was

581
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 1: birthed from warring people who made insane sacrifices over the

582
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: course of their life to get to the generation we're

583
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: currently in. I think it's baked into our DNA. We

584
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: appreciate warfare because we see it as a necessity at

585
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: a primitive level. So I think if you defang the NFL,

586
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 1: if you take away the violent aspect of the NFL,

587
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: the tackling aspect of the NFL, I think it will

588
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 1: shortly after that it'll regress. It will not be the

589
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: monstrosity it is anymore, and people will turn their attention elsewhere.

590
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: That's what I feel.

591
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 2: I would I would tend to lean in your direction,

592
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 2: but let's not lose sight of the fact that what

593
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 2: really built this sport to the mega force it is

594
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 2: is the gambling aspect of the sport.

595
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 3: There's no question about it.

596
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: Oh, it's huge yea, and funds you take, So what

597
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 2: really drives the sport for people in general? We often

598
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 2: say that maybe half the people that say they are

599
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 2: totally devoted to the NFL are really devoted to the

600
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: gambling aspect of the game more than any individual team.

601
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 2: You know, I dare say, I don't know what the

602
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 2: percentages are, but a large percentage of people that you

603
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 2: know term themselves NFL fans are more connected to their

604
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 2: fantasy football team than any actual team in the NFL.

605
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: So if the gambling aspect of the game does not change,

606
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 2: you're still playing games, You're still betting on games, You're

607
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 2: still gambling on games. Does that lessen the interest in

608
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 2: the sport? It's hard for me to say. I mean,

609
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: for you that you know, put your life on the line,

610
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 2: and I always feel about anybody that steps on a field,

611
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 2: especially at the NFL level, it's madness. But if that

612
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 2: aspect of the game does and change now, I mean, look,

613
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 2: I'm an old school guy. I mean, it would be

614
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: impossible for me to accept a sport of American football

615
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 2: without the physical side of it. I mean on a

616
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 2: personal level. But I don't know if that's the case

617
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 2: for everybody.

618
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, the game.

619
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 2: We've already complained for those to remember a much more

620
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 2: violent NFL than it is today, that they've softened the sport,

621
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 2: and yet in softening the sport, protecting the quarterbacks and

622
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 2: making all these measures to make the game safer, it

623
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 2: hasn't lessened the appeal of the sport.

624
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 3: No, and the sport continues to grow in popularity.

625
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: But let me look that there have been sacrifices in

626
00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: terms of the amount of violence in the NFL, There's

627
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 1: no question about it. But you also realize that those

628
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: sacrifices only come when there is a cultural movement toward

629
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 1: demonizing the violence of the sport. I don't I look,

630
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: even with the popularity of flag football, I think there

631
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 1: would be it would be there would be more of

632
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 1: a push toward flag football being a companion league, not

633
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 1: unlike you know, say the UFL, you know, call it

634
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 1: the I don't know, the FFFL, you know, the Flag

635
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 1: Football League. Like it's to me that that makes more

636
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 1: sense to me to have it as a companion league,

637
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 1: as a softer, less violent viewership experience for those who

638
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: find the violence of the NFL distasteful. And I bet

639
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 1: you the NFL would have a nice big piece of that,

640
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: or many of the owners would have, you know, purchased

641
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: a fantasy or a Flag football League team if that

642
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: that was ever something that grew enough in popularity to

643
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: you know, earn a share of viewership on television or

644
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 1: you know, have the ability to fill stadiums or smaller

645
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: stadiums at first, and maybe graduate to larger venues. I

646
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 1: could see that, but I can't see the NFL completely disappearing.

647
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: Like I said, never say never. You know a lot

648
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: of things change in a hurry. We had the breaking

649
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 1: news at the top of the show that for the

650
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: first time in jeez, what is.

651
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 3: Its nineteen sixty eight?

652
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: Sixty years? Is it?

653
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 3: Yeah?

654
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: I guess sixty years, we see a president stepping down,

655
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: not running for re election. You know, so anything's possible.

656
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,839
Speaker 1: I'm not saying, but I do feel like people look

657
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. Okay, for everybody who says Taylor Swift is

658
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,839
Speaker 1: doing so much for football, how about what football is

659
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 1: doing to Taylor Swift. I mean, Taylor Swift is dating,

660
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: inarguably one of the greatest tight ends who ever played

661
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 1: the game, and she's at Chiefs game, chugging beers, you know,

662
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: watching the gladiatorial sport. You know, it even has Taylor

663
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 1: Swift's stamp of approval. You know what I'm saying. I

664
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 1: don't think the violent nature of the game is going anywhere.

665
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: I just don't. Now, I'm not saying it can't, but

666
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: I personally don't see it going anywhere all right.

667
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 2: On the other side, we'll continue on with our NFL

668
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 2: talk because yes we are days a little over a

669
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 2: week away from the.

670
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame game.

671
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: So once again we explore the unknown in terms of

672
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 2: teams on the rise that nobody are talking about. And

673
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 2: I've got a team that I guarantee.

674
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 3: You nobody's talking about, but I am.

675
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 2: We'll tell you who that is. So we'll filed from

676
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 2: Rich as well who he thinks may rise from the ashes.

677
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin and rich Uberg.

678
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,160
Speaker 2: Here Fox Sports Sunday. We're live from the Tairaq dot

679
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 2: Com studios. Later on, John Palm Morosi's gonna join us

680
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 2: live from Cooper's Down Hall of Fame Induction Day and JP,

681
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll give us the full report coming up

682
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,879
Speaker 2: a little bit later on in this show. We don't

683
00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 2: have a lot of time here before the top of

684
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:03,439
Speaker 2: the so this may go for a while, but we

685
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 2: know every single year, and it's not just a team, there's.

686
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 3: Usually two or three teams.

687
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I'll give you two examples last year obvious examples.

688
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 3: One was the Houston Texas.

689
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,959
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, at this time a year ago,

690
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 2: if you had said the Houston Texans, with a new

691
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 2: coach and a rookie quarterback, we're going.

692
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 3: To make the playoffs, what are he's smoking?

693
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:23,319
Speaker 1: Like?

694
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 2: There's no chance that that team is going to make

695
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 2: the playoffs. And the team that I predicted would be

696
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 2: the worst team in the NFL last year was the

697
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 2: Rams and they made the playoffs. And and by the way,

698
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 2: I know a Ram player that pretty much assured me

699
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 2: before the season began that the likelihood of them making

700
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 2: the playoffs was next to zero because again, they had

701
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 2: used so much money to win a Super Bowl and

702
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 2: now they had to pay back.

703
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:52,840
Speaker 3: But you know, Kyra.

704
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,720
Speaker 2: Williams becomes a Pro Bowl running back, Puka Nakuaz breaking

705
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 2: all kinds of working way.

706
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 3: You don't see these things coming.

707
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 2: So I have a team and it cemented me when

708
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 2: I saw a Pro Football Focus.

709
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 3: Are you a PFF fan? Rich?

710
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 1: I am, and I'm kind of converted. So yeah, at

711
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 1: first I was thinking to myself, you know, how could

712
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: they do what they're claiming to do. But after meeting

713
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: many people or speaking with I don't know how many

714
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 1: of them, I've met in person, but spoke with many

715
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: of them over the years, whether it be interviewing or

716
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 1: just private conversations or direct messaging and all that type

717
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: of stuff. You realize what painstaking work goes into spitting

718
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 1: out these stats. A lot, and I mean a lot

719
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 1: of human work. These aren't things that can really be

720
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,240
Speaker 1: done with artificial intelligence yet because there's so much gray area.

721
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 1: I am a fan of and I often do use

722
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 1: pro football focused stats.

723
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,240
Speaker 3: HI so PFF and this was I believe.

724
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 2: Back in May, they did a rundown of all the

725
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the NFL and by tier right and so

726
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 2: alone on tier one was Patrick Mahomes as well he

727
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 2: should be. Then they had three quarterbacks and tier two

728
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 2: they had Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, and Josh Allen. And

729
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 2: then they continued all the way to the end, bringing

730
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 2: up the rear at number thirty two. Worst quarterback situation

731
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 2: in the NFL Jared Stidham, Zach Wilson, Denver Broncos. Hard

732
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 2: to argue with that, but then the Denver Broncos draft

733
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 2: Bo Nicks. And I'm making a bold prediction. I make

734
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 2: a lot of bold predictions, rarely true, but this time

735
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 2: I believe I'm onto something. Bownicks is not your normal

736
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 2: rookie quarterback. He's a five year starter at the highest level,

737
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,959
Speaker 2: three years at Auburn, two at Oregon, and he's twenty

738
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 2: four years old. And the reason Russell Wilson is no

739
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 2: longer in Denver is that Sean Payton did not.

740
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 3: Want Russell Wilson right.

741
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 2: He wants his own guy to take over the reins

742
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 2: of that Denver Broncos team, and he has the power

743
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 2: to do really whatever he wants for the Broncos. Now

744
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 2: we're up against it with the top of the clock,

745
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,720
Speaker 2: but I'm gonna explain why there is a team out there,

746
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 2: and you know which team I'm talking about right now,

747
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 2: it's going to shock the world and it's going to

748
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 2: be that team that everyone says has no chance zero

749
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 2: of making the postseason. But yes, Denver Bronco fans, you

750
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 2: are going to be excited in my reasoning. On the

751
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 2: other side, keep it right here much more coming up

752
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 2: a busy day. This is Fox Sports Sunday, rolling along

753
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 2: here on this historic Sunday.

754
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 3: It's Fox Sports Sunday.

755
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 2: We're broadcasting live from the tyrack dot Com studios tyrid

756
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 2: dot Com we're gonna have get you there, and I'm

757
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 2: Matt's selection. Fast reshipping, free road ass of protection over

758
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:02,200
Speaker 2: ten thousand recommended in Stollers tire rack dot com the

759
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 2: way tire buying should be. So obviously, the biggest story

760
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 2: of the day is President Biden stepping out of the race.

761
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 2: I know a lot of people are saying, well, now what, Well,

762
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 2: he had secured all those delegates through the primaries, and

763
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 2: now they are released, they're free to go to any

764
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,319
Speaker 2: candidate they want. President of course, has endorsed his vice

765
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 2: president Kamala Harris, but that doesn't necessarily give her the nomination.

766
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 2: So there's gonna be some interesting things coming up here

767
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 2: with the Democratic Convention coming.

768
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 3: Up next month and the election of course in November.

769
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, on the sports front, the Hall of Fame game

770
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 2: is Thursday, August first, and we're getting ready for it.

771
00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 3: There's no question about that.

772
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 2: Texans taking on the Bears should be a very interesting matchup.

773
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,919
Speaker 2: Early on, a lot of focus on Caleb Williams being

774
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 2: the number one overall. Pick a little sidebar question for you, Rich, sure,

775
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 2: because we talked about Iberflus being the favorite, he's the

776
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,400
Speaker 2: favorite to be coach of the year. He's also the

777
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:10,200
Speaker 2: favorite to not survive after this season. Yeah, it's really

778
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 2: a weird dynamic.

779
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 1: Two things, two things can be true at the same time. Yeah,

780
00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 1: if so that Eberflu saves this situation. He's obviously one

781
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: of the better coaches in the NFL. And if what

782
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 1: we think could or potentially inevitably will happen, which is

783
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 1: the Bears struggle mightily with a rookie quarterback like a

784
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 1: lot of teams with rookie quarterbacks do well, then he'll

785
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:34,439
Speaker 1: lose his job most likely.

786
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, so he's the favorite on both of

787
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 3: those lists so.

788
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: Far.

789
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,280
Speaker 3: Extreme. So that's where we are in the NFL.

790
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,400
Speaker 2: Every single year we have to sort of predict who's

791
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 2: going to be better, who's going to be worse, And

792
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 2: in my case, it always seems to be the opposite.

793
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 2: Every time I think it's going to get worse, gets better,

794
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 2: and who's gonna get better is gonna get worse. But

795
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 2: sometimes we talk about addition through subtraction. The last time

796
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 2: that Russell Wilson was bid farewell by a team is

797
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 2: when the Seahawks dealt him to the Denver Broncos. And

798
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 2: after that and Drew Locke came in to Seattle, most

799
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,400
Speaker 2: people said it's going to be a rough here for

800
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,399
Speaker 2: Seattle anything. They're fighting for the number one overall pick

801
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 2: in the draft to find their quarterback of the future.

802
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 2: But instead they signed Gino Smith, who I didn't even

803
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 2: know was still playing in the NFL. I'll be perfectly,

804
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 2: I did not know that Gino was even still sniffing

805
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 2: around the NFL, but he was.

806
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 3: And what happened.

807
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 2: Not only did the Seahawks not have the worst team

808
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 2: in the NFL, they made the playoffs. And so now

809
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:50,240
Speaker 2: another team has cast Russell Wilson a drift. Fooled once,

810
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 2: I'm not going to be fooled again. The Denver Broncos,

811
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 2: when you look at them on paper, are not good.

812
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: They're not good at all.

813
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 2: And right now Bo Nicks, the rookie out of Oregon,

814
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 2: is listed as their number one quarterback over Jared Stidham

815
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 2: and Zach Wilson.

816
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:09,439
Speaker 3: It doesn't make sense.

817
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:11,799
Speaker 2: They haven't made many personnel moves, but not only did

818
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 2: they jettison Russell Wilson, they also got rid of the

819
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 2: gross underachiever Jerry Judy as well. The rest of the

820
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 2: team is pretty much intact, but I think about what

821
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,840
Speaker 2: happened last year rich Not only did they start the

822
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,320
Speaker 2: year zero to three, they gave up seventy points in

823
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 2: that third game. They went to one and five, and

824
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:31,920
Speaker 2: the next thing you know, they won six of their

825
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 2: next seven games before losing three of their last four.

826
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,439
Speaker 2: The way that Sean Payton held that team together when

827
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:43,240
Speaker 2: it looked like it was going to be completely cave in, obviously,

828
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 2: it says a lot about a proven coach like Sean Payton.

829
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 2: He just needs to get the quarterback he wants in there.

830
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 2: He's going to take bow Knicks under his wing and

831
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,439
Speaker 2: Bownicks is not your normal rookie. He's had five full

832
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 2: years at the highest level in college football, and what

833
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 2: he did last year at Oregon very impressive. He has

834
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:04,120
Speaker 2: the ability not only to throw the ball accurately. His

835
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 2: completion percentage was out of sight, nearing eighty percent for

836
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 2: the year, but he can run. He's an athlete. I think, then,

837
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:15,280
Speaker 2: I look at this AFC West. The Chiefs are the Chiefs, Okay,

838
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,760
Speaker 2: no one's obviously going to touch them. But the Raiders

839
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:22,240
Speaker 2: right now Aiden O'Connell, Gardner Minshew sort of a middle

840
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 2: of the road team.

841
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 3: The Chargers. I've said this before.

842
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 2: Jim Harbaugh will finanswers, He'll build the Chargers into winner.

843
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 3: Eventually. They have too many holes.

844
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 2: Right now, I think the Broncos can assent to second

845
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 2: place in the AFC West, and with the coach Sean

846
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 2: Payton in charge, with the defense that was vastly improved

847
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 2: by years and last year, and a young quarterback that

848
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 2: he can truly mold into the quarterback he wants.

849
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 3: I'm putting it on right now. The Denver Broncos are

850
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 3: going to sneak in as a wild card in twenty

851
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:57,439
Speaker 3: twenty four.

852
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 1: What do you think of that? Well, listen, what do

853
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 1: I think of it? I think that it is as

854
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 1: likely as what we saw Houston do last year, Okay,

855
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,320
Speaker 1: which is to say highly unlikely.

856
00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:18,399
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, So here I have some reasoning though, Yeah you.

857
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 1: Did, and I appreciate you walking us through the tangled

858
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 1: web to lead you to this place. Here's the reality

859
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:31,360
Speaker 1: of this situation. The reason why it was so exciting

860
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 1: to see what CJ. Stroud was doing is because of

861
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,280
Speaker 1: how rare it is is, because it doesn't happen very often.

862
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 1: In fact, it's something just north of thirty five percent.

863
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 1: Maybe it hovers around thirty seven actual first round drafted

864
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: quarterback rookies pan out to even be franchise quarterbacks. Okay,

865
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:58,600
Speaker 1: that's just a franchise guy, you know. Okay, Jimmy Garoppolo

866
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,320
Speaker 1: might be on that list. Kirk might be on that list.

867
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott might be on that list. You know, just guys,

868
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,560
Speaker 1: guys who have anchored franchises. Haven't won Super Bowls, but

869
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 1: who have anchored franchises like a franchise quarterback. Only about

870
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 1: thirty five percent of the drafted first round rookies. So

871
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,880
Speaker 1: when you think about how many drafted first round rookies

872
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: this year there were, that means potentially two of them,

873
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 1: if it lands perfectly in the odds, could end up

874
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 1: having that kind of run that we saw CJ. Straft

875
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 1: have or something maybe not quite as great but similar

876
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 1: to it. But the fact of the matter is there

877
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 1: are certain years where we see five or six quarterbacks

878
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,600
Speaker 1: drafted in the first round and none of them are

879
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,200
Speaker 1: really all that good. Sometimes we see a bunch of

880
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 1: quarterbacks or maybe a couple, and they're both good, or

881
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: they're all good. It's that's much rarer. But my point being,

882
00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: everything's got to come together. So Sean Payton has to

883
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:02,399
Speaker 1: hit the perfect notes with bon Nicks. Bon Nicks has

884
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 1: to understand his offensive philosophy perfect the meeting point of

885
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 1: their minds.

886
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 3: Plus his ability, plus you know.

887
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: Injuries around the team, you know coming at more opportune times.

888
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 1: You know where, you know the receivers and the tight

889
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: ends he's working with in the running backs. The timing

890
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 1: is there and the relationship is there. Like a lot

891
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: of things have to coalesce perfectly for this to happen.

892
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: That's the reason why it was so exciting watching the

893
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 1: Houston Texans because we don't see it very often. So

894
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,360
Speaker 1: do I believe it could happen? Yes, Yes, I believe

895
00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,000
Speaker 1: it could happen. I'm not trying to rain on any

896
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos fans plans to celebrate a playoff run this

897
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: year because I don't know and nobody does. But what

898
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,840
Speaker 1: I can say is it's really difficult, and the odds

899
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 1: are stacked far, far against the Denver Broncos going from

900
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,640
Speaker 1: worse to first or anything resembling that I know.

901
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 3: Bronco fans collectively are cursing right now the radio.

902
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: Why Harmy? Why of all the teams? Why would you

903
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: pick us?

904
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 2: We wanted to sneak up on people. I don't know,

905
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 2: there's something about it. I'm not a Broncos fan by

906
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 2: any stretch of the imagination, but something, something is up there.

907
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 2: All Rich, do you have a team, and I'm talking

908
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 2: about a team completely off the radar, completely like the

909
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 2: Denver Broncos that because it happens, it happens every year.

910
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 2: I mean the Texans may have been an extreme case,

911
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 2: but every again.

912
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 3: Two years ago, Seattle, no one forget it.

913
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 2: Drew Locke, Drew Locke is going to lead Seattle that

914
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 2: you replaced Russell Wilson, Drew Lock, Trew Locke never saw

915
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:39,879
Speaker 2: the light of day.

916
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 3: Gino Smith, Geno Smith.

917
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 2: So uh and the Rams what they did a year ago?

918
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 2: So can you see a team that nobody else is

919
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:52,960
Speaker 2: thinking about they could rise from the ashes and actually

920
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,600
Speaker 2: find themselves in a playoff game in this twenty twenty

921
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 2: four season.

922
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:03,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess there's.

923
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,400
Speaker 3: A team out there. You know what you know to

924
00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:06,040
Speaker 3: figure it out?

925
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: Okay, So one team that I really like their makeup

926
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:15,960
Speaker 1: and I really think that they can. They can. It's

927
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,920
Speaker 1: not coming out of nowhere, though, Like it's really not

928
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 1: coming out of nowhere. The New York Jets are my team. Okay,

929
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say something that's going to sound plainly ridiculous.

930
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 3: You should have said New York Giants. Now, if you

931
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,720
Speaker 3: could make a Giants argument, I'm with you on no, no, no, no.

932
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't, I absolutely cannot.

933
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:35,799
Speaker 3: I mean about jenn and Daniels and the Washington Commanders.

934
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,479
Speaker 1: Come on, all right, you're the but but is it?

935
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 1: Is it only with a young quarterback? Or can can

936
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 1: it be with an aging old pro like Aaron Rodgers?

937
00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 3: How about how about the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers in

938
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 3: that division?

939
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: Okay, but more likely in that division, I could see

940
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:52,120
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons.

941
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 2: I know one team you're no longer picking because you

942
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,720
Speaker 2: picked them every single year to rise from the ashes,

943
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 2: and that is your your former team, the New England Patriots.

944
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 3: There's no rising from the ashes.

945
00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 1: Okay. Here's here's the funny thing about the New England Patriots.

946
00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 1: If if Drake, they're gonna go, this is the truth,

947
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: if they if they got it right with Drake May,

948
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 1: then they're going to go.

949
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 3: Well, wait a minute, if they got a right did

950
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 3: they get it right with Drake May, I don't know,

951
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,120
Speaker 3: and obviously you have hesitation.

952
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 1: I absolutely do. I have hesitation with Caleb Williams. I

953
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:26,320
Speaker 1: have hesitation with with with uh Uh Jayde and Daniels.

954
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:32,360
Speaker 1: I have no hesitation with with uh Pennix Junior, I

955
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 1: have bo Nix. Who knows. Look all these guys, like

956
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 1: I said, thirty five percent. Historically, out of the first

957
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: round with drafted quarterbacks, you you find yourself with a

958
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,880
Speaker 1: guy who's a franchise quarterback. That doesn't even mean a

959
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,400
Speaker 1: super Bowl winner. That doesn't even mean a guy who's

960
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 1: continually or year after year leading your team into the playoffs.

961
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 1: That just means a guy who can play, who you

962
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 1: can build around, who you know is maybe top of

963
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,959
Speaker 1: the second tier at worst. Right you know, a top

964
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: fifteen quarterback thirty five percent, which means you're taking an

965
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 1: enormous amount of risk paying a guy, drafting a guy

966
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 1: with a first overall pick or any first round draft pick.

967
00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: As we know, and twelve teams or I should say

968
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,799
Speaker 1: six teams in the top twelve decided to do that

969
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 1: to leverage their franchise for maybe a couple of years

970
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,479
Speaker 1: or longer, to take a risk to roll the dice

971
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 1: and see if one of these guys can can have

972
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 1: the goods now. The Atlanta Falcons is an interesting talking

973
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 1: point because Atlanta Falcons, they fire their head coach, they

974
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:35,000
Speaker 1: bring in a familiar face, they sign a free agent

975
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:38,280
Speaker 1: and Kirk Cousins, and pay him like a starting quarterback

976
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 1: should be paid in the NFL, and then they draft

977
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:44,799
Speaker 1: an insurance policy in Pennix Junior. I'm very intrigued by

978
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons. The Jets. I don't think we saw

979
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 1: enough from the Jets last year to make any bold

980
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: predictions about what this year is going to look like. However,

981
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:57,240
Speaker 1: I will say this, no team has received a bigger

982
00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:00,800
Speaker 1: upgraded quarterback year over year the New York Jets.

983
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:04,200
Speaker 2: You're still convinced that Aaron Rodgers, whose last year in

984
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 2: Green Bay was subpar, You have to agree. If any

985
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,560
Speaker 2: team upgraded at the quarterback position in twenty twenty three,

986
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 2: it was getting rid of Aaron Rodgers and handing the

987
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,920
Speaker 2: ball to Jordan Love, who obviously was a much better

988
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,880
Speaker 2: quarterback than Rogers had been the year before, and then

989
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 2: after another year off at age forty, Aaron Rodgers is

990
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 2: a major upgrade.

991
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,760
Speaker 1: I yes, yes, I understand everything you just said about

992
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:29,920
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers and how things ended there with

993
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. And I'm also I can be equally impressed

994
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: with Jordan Love and what he was able to do

995
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 1: with a similar, not the same roster that Aaron Rodgers

996
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: had a year before. And also think that Aaron Rodgers

997
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 1: still has enough in the tank with an insanely talented

998
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,880
Speaker 1: Jets team around him that is a top defense in

999
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 1: the league, and he has more offensive weapons than the

1000
00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,920
Speaker 1: majority of the league at his disposal. Brist Hall is real.

1001
00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 1: The receiver I'm blanking on his name right now is

1002
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 1: very thank you, very very real. Mike Williams is gonna

1003
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 1: be on the pup list to start camp. But DeVonta

1004
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,000
Speaker 1: Adams is talking about wanting to be traded to New York.

1005
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 1: They have, they have a talented tight end, they have

1006
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 1: they have a lot of pieces surrounding Aaron Rodgers.

1007
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 3: He's a lousy head coach and Roberts, but we don't know.

1008
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: What kind of coaches.

1009
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:23,239
Speaker 3: I know exactly what kind of coach he is.

1010
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 2: He's a coach, he's a great defensive coordinator, a lowsy

1011
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 2: head coach.

1012
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:32,320
Speaker 1: Okay, but but here's the Here's the thing. All great coaches,

1013
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 1: barring few exceptions, are great head coaches because they've been

1014
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:40,640
Speaker 1: paired with great quarterbacks. Now, some of them have fostered

1015
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 1: these great quarterbacks and turned them into great players, like

1016
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,399
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick working with Tom Brady, a six round draft

1017
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: pick and helping turn him into the goat, you know,

1018
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,759
Speaker 1: Like Bill Walsh and Joe Montana and Steve Young like

1019
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 1: oh gosh, like like Sean Payton and Drew Brees. You know,

1020
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,200
Speaker 1: I think he got the most out of Drew Brees

1021
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,120
Speaker 1: out of any other coach out there. But still, all

1022
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: of these coaches, they will be potential or definite Hall

1023
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,720
Speaker 1: of Famers in the future, and all of them needed

1024
00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 1: great quarterbacks. There are so few who don't. So Robert Salive,

1025
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: the jury's out. If Aaron Rodgers placed two years with

1026
00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:18,040
Speaker 1: the New York Jets and they get to I don't know,

1027
00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:22,279
Speaker 1: two AFC Championship games or win a Super Bowl, what

1028
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:23,880
Speaker 1: are we gonna be saying about Robert.

1029
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:27,200
Speaker 2: Salad that right now the Denver Broncos will have a

1030
00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:30,319
Speaker 2: better record than the New York Jets this season. By

1031
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 2: the way, they had a better record than them last season.

1032
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:34,319
Speaker 1: Actually, we need to put a side bet on it.

1033
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,640
Speaker 2: Okay, so last year the Broncos are eight to nine,

1034
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,799
Speaker 2: the Jets are seven and ten. All I'm saying is

1035
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,720
Speaker 2: you'll continue to see the Broncos have a better record

1036
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:42,320
Speaker 2: than the Jets.

1037
00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:44,120
Speaker 1: You and me and the coach.

1038
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:47,960
Speaker 3: The difference between a Sean Payton and Robert Sala it's

1039
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:48,879
Speaker 3: like night and day.

1040
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 1: We have to I don't know what it's gonna be.

1041
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,080
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe Steve has to shave his head.

1042
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 3: I don't know. Never, you never perfect hair. I'm never

1043
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 3: going to touch that perfect care all right.

1044
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 2: By the way, coming up on the other side, a

1045
00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:07,960

Speaker 2: national weekends, and we've done it pretty much everything. And

1057
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,360
Speaker 2: I can say this in all honesty because obviously I

1058
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,080
Speaker 2: love Rich and I love everything he's about.

Speaker 2: Played the game at the highest level despite injury after injury.

1062
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,320
Speaker 3: But here's where he's fallen a bit short.

1063
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:14,320
Speaker 2: He is he is not cashed in on his greatest asset,

1064
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 2: and that is.

1065
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:21,720
Speaker 3: The brawn that is Rich Ornberger.

1066
00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 2: But now, and we want to thank Arnie Spanier for

1067
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:29,160
Speaker 2: updating this on this our dear friend Arnie, there is

1068
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:34,880
Speaker 2: a new comedy film on offensive lineman turned male Model

1069
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 2: coming out from Paramount Pictures. Now, initially when I saw

1070
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 2: this title, I thought Rich is keeping something from me.

1071
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 1: I had no idea he's going to be in a movie.

1072
00:57:42,800 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 2: But it really is a story about what's going on

1073
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:51,320
Speaker 2: right now. So you've got male models, you know, the

1074
00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 2: normal male model. You know, he's more beautiful than the

1075
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 2: most beautiful woman. That kind of male model, right, tall, fit, thin,

1076
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 2: that whole thing. Sure they're not in right now. Apparently

1077
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 2: brawny male models are the rage right now.

1078
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: Thank you.

1079
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:15,280
Speaker 2: And with the silver locks of one, Rich Ornberger. So

1080
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:19,440
Speaker 2: I saw this about John Toath, John Toath. I'll put

1081
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 2: it this way, Rich, your NFL career compared to John

1082
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 2: Toath would make you a first ballot Hall of Famer.

1083
00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:29,080
Speaker 2: John Toath, you had to go outstanding career Kentucky. But

1084
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 2: he had played a total of six games in the NFL,

1085
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 2: six total in his entire NFL career. But now John

1086
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 2: tothe the former NFL center, It's begun the rage in

1087
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 2: this brawnye male modeling industry.

1088
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: That's right.

1089
00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:50,000
Speaker 2: So let me ask you this, Rich, because I've seen

1093
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,520

1097
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 2: be one of your new ventures moving forward?

00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:20,440

00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,520
Speaker 1: aside for the moment and concentrating on the next era,

1104
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,800
Speaker 1: what I like to call my butterfly era. I feel

1105
00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 1: like I've really been in a cocoon for a long time,

1106
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 1: you know, just hiding away from the world, not allowing

1107
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:57,080
Speaker 1: people to see all of me, you know, the true me.

1108
00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 1: And I feel like at some point it's time to

1109
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:04,400
Speaker 1: burst out of that cocoon from where I once lived

1110
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:09,320
Speaker 1: and spread my wings and fly. Now this again, help

1111
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:10,880
Speaker 1: me with the is it? John Toath?

1112

Speaker 2: John Toath, John Toath is an inspiration, yes, for all

1113
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:15,919
Speaker 2: big men.

1114
01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 1: He should celebrate his body as many people should celebrate

1115
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 1: a larger, huskier fella's body, because what I mean, look,

1116
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 1: there's love out there for the model, you know, and

1117
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:31,840
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the prototypical archetypal model, where it's you

1118
01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 1: see a muscular fit. Let's use that word. It's the

1119
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 1: F word. I like to call it fit. Gosh uh,

1120
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 1: it's it's it's time for somebody who's got maybe another

1121
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 1: F word, a four letter F word, to flourish. And

1122
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:50,400
Speaker 1: that word is flab. Wow.

1123
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, oh yeah, good, I almost hit the dump button,

1124
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:59,160
Speaker 2: so you're saying now, By the way, when I worked

1125
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:03,120
Speaker 2: for the Raiders in the eighties, we had a player

1126
01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 2: by the name of Howie Long. Sure, and you know

1127
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,760
Speaker 2: how he was like any other NFL player of that time,

1128
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 2: especially alignment, he was anonymous until Sports Illustrated decided to

1129
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:21,840
Speaker 2: put a helmetless Howie Long on its cover, and overnight,

1130
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 2: women around America discovered HOWI Long.

1131
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:30,760
Speaker 3: Now. He was already married, still married, happily married.

1132
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:35,480
Speaker 2: But women swooned over this guy. I saw this as

1133
01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,040
Speaker 2: it was actually happening. It was pretty funny, right about

1134
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 2: this whole thing, Like, Wow, he's like a really good

1135
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:41,880
Speaker 2: looking guy and he's a big guy.

1136
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.

1137
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 2: And obviously he's parlayed that into a phenomenal post football career.

1138
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:49,919
Speaker 3: But I see a similar fate for you.

1139
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 2: I just feel like, as as stude as you are

1140
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 2: with your observations on sports in general, you're gambling insights.

1141
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 2: We've seen you write very descriptive almost I don't know

1142
01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:10,440
Speaker 2: how to explain it, but you you've really explained your

1143
01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 2: life as a football player over the years, the good,

1144
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 2: bad and the ugly. Sure, yeah, but this no, this

1145
01:02:17,360 --> 01:02:21,040
Speaker 2: is the this is this is something that us me form.

1146
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, because if this film hits. By the way, the

1147
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 3: name of this film is called.

1148
01:02:25,600 --> 01:02:31,840
Speaker 1: Thick Jesus with two seeds. Yes, thank god, the pH

1149
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:36,959
Speaker 1: I C C. Yeah, the two SE's because yeah, it's thick.

1150
01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:37,800

1151
01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:39,480
Speaker 1: It is. I.

1152
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:41,800
Speaker 2: I can just see you because you know there'll be

1153
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:44,720
Speaker 2: like a sequel to this and you walk in and like.

1154
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 1: Hello, this is going to be I like I told you,

1155
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 1: this is almost gonna be like like one of those

1156
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,080
Speaker 1: moments like okay, for example, I forget then it might

1157
01:02:54,120 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 1: be the name of the movie. It was a Disney

1158
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,040
Speaker 1: movie called The Rookie, Yes, where it's like it the

1159
01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 1: math Teacher. Yeah, he's got a little left in the arm,

1160
01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:05,360
Speaker 1: and so he goes out there and he turns pro

1161
01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 1: at whatever it is forty seven. He was throwing.

1162
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 3: He was throwing the ball harder than he was ten

1163
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:11,520
Speaker 3: years before.

1164
01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:15,640
Speaker 1: Exactly, yeah, exactly. So I mean to me, this may

1165
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: be a calling that you and I and I don't

1166
01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:22,800
Speaker 1: blame us because we were so entrapped in you know,

1167
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 1: trying to deliver the best sports broadcasting we possibly could

1168
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,040
Speaker 1: deliver great shows to a listening audience that over the

1169
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:32,919
Speaker 1: years has has reached me, I mean critical mass at times.

1170
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 1: I mean the servers can't even handle it. Look, the

1171
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:39,040
Speaker 1: point is, this might, though, be the one thing we

1172
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 1: overlooked together and I don't know, maybe it could even

1173
01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,920
Speaker 1: be a pairing, Like maybe it could even be like

1174
01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:50,040
Speaker 1: like almost like a Danny DeVito Arnold Schwarzenegger in the

1175
01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:54,200
Speaker 1: movie Twins thing. Yeah, like where I'm the beef and

1176
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 1: maybe you're the sizzle.

1177
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,120
Speaker 3: And less at best.

1178
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:02,960
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe we create a collaborative instagram.

1179
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:05,720
Speaker 2: I love the fact that this movie was based on

1180
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:08,600
Speaker 2: a magazine article. The name of the article was at

1181
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:11,400
Speaker 2: the Russian Baz with the big boys of Braun.

1182
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:13,960
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to get a visual right there. Yeah,

1183
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:15,280
Speaker 3: very very disturbing.

1184
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 2: All right, let's find out what is trending right now,

1185
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,440

Speaker 8: Three brawny men, many of them.

1201

01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:12,439
Speaker 1: saying that because I'm rich Orton.

1205
01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:16,040
Speaker 2: Not only not only does he cook and not you're right,

1206
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:18,920
Speaker 2: but also he's the handyman.

1207
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean do anything.

1208
01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:23,080

1209
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:25,960
Speaker 1: a relationship with all that, but can you imagine me, Okay,

1210
01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 1: maybe maybe a little dirty, maybe some some dirt under

1211
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 1: or grime, grease. We don't know where it came from

1212
01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:36,000
Speaker 1: under the fingernails, right, and I'm a little scruffy. I'll

1213
01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:39,520
Speaker 1: let the five o'clock shadow grow out. That's right. I'm

1214
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 1: scantily clad, wearing mostly but only a tool belt. And

1215
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,440
Speaker 1: it's just I don't know, I'm just.

1216
01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 8: That sells for itself.

1217
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:50,720
Speaker 2: By the way, you get all the rich ventures outside

1218
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:52,400
Speaker 2: in his underwear to barbecue.

1219
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:53,080
Speaker 8: Of course he does.

01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,760
Speaker 3: This is not uncommon. His neighbors seen him.

1221
01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 1: Unfortunately for them, they do have or fortunately now that

Speaker 3: Listening thighs.

Speaker 1: I like to they collect an abundance of vitamin D

1229
01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:24,840
Speaker 1: because you know, often not as sun kissed as other

1230
01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 1: parts of my body. I feel like they absorb that.

1246
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 6: Pirates have yet to score, so the Philly is holding

1247
01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:00,400
Speaker 6: onto that two lead.

1248
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,080
Speaker 8: Top of the seventh inning. The Cardinals have extended their

1249
01:07:03,120 --> 01:07:04,960
Speaker 8: lead over the Braves. It's five to two top of

1270

01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 6: Hunter Nima Chuck, I'm.

1277
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:10,600

Speaker 6: He is currently in the lead after fifty nine laps.

1279

Speaker 6: presidential race. Back to you guys, pretty crazy, It is

1283
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:24,959
Speaker 6: pretty crazy.

1284
01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:26,760
Speaker 3: It is pretty crazy.

1285
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:28,520
Speaker 8: But not entirely surprising.

1286
01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:32,920
Speaker 2: Not surprising, but we have an election coming up in November,

1287
01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:37,640
Speaker 2: and as of right now, the Democrats do not have

1288
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:38,200
Speaker 2: a nominee.

1289
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,760
Speaker 3: Yes, git, so they're going to have to you. They're

1290
01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:43,639
Speaker 3: gonna have to figure that one out now. By the way.

1291
01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:46,679
Speaker 2: Quicker note, Manzie, who did you pick in the matchup

1292
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:51,920
Speaker 2: between the Team USA versus w NBA All Star.

1293
01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:54,880
Speaker 8: Don't you remember? Of course, you remember I said the

1294
01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 8: All Stars are going to.

1295
01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:58,240
Speaker 3: Win it, and they did, and they want it. They

1296
01:08:58,400 --> 01:08:58,760
Speaker 3: want it.

1297
01:08:59,320 --> 01:08:59,559
Speaker 4: Yep.

1298
01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:00,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1299
01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:03,880
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark has now become an assist machine. She's like

1300
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:07,439
Speaker 2: John Stockton now. She said he a WNBA record what

1301
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:09,680
Speaker 2: she had the nineteen assists game and then she had

1302
01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:12,160
Speaker 2: double digit assist in the All Star Game?

1303
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 8: Correct, ten most for a rookie.

1304
01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:14,759
Speaker 1: Wow.

1305
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I know. And they were double teaming her up

1306
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:18,120
Speaker 8: and down the court.

1307
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 6: So people online were like, oh, Team USA didn't care.

1308
01:09:21,520 --> 01:09:25,639
Speaker 8: Yes, they cared. They were double teaming Caitlin the whole game.

1309
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,080
Speaker 2: Okay, but here's a problem. Here's a problem with that.

1310
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,960
Speaker 2: Rich I wanted to get into this right now once again.

1311
01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:32,760
Speaker 2: By oh, by the way, before we even do that,

1312
01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 2: I have a big announcement.

Speaker 2: way tire buying should be. We've seen a transformation in

1328
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:31,720
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark's game. Remember she started her WNBA career struggling

1329
01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:33,920
Speaker 2: with her shot, and honestly I gave her a little

1330
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 2: slack because I thought she's got to be tired, right,

1331
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,479
Speaker 2: I mean, she led Iowa all the way to the

1332
01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:42,639
Speaker 2: championship game, and what a month later WNBA season gets.

1333
01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:44,919
Speaker 1: Going crazy crazy turn on, I really.

1334
01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 2: Turn around, plus all the attention, you know, all the

1335
01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:48,240
Speaker 2: interviews and everything else.

1336
01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:50,880
Speaker 3: She had to be exhausted. Her SHOT's coming back. But

1337
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:55,400
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, now she's becoming an assist machine.

1338
01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 1: Yep.

1339
01:10:56,479 --> 01:11:00,800
Speaker 2: And I wonder about that if that is a I mean,

1340
01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:04,840
Speaker 2: the appeal of Kitlyn Clark for the masses to me

1341
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:08,160
Speaker 2: was her scoring, right, I mean, she was the all

1342
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:11,519
Speaker 2: time leading scorer in Division one women's history. You know,

1343
01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 2: they talked about a record that doesn't exist, her passing

1344
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:18,400
Speaker 2: Pete Marriviche most points for a man or women.

1345
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 3: This is a you know, immediate creation.

1346
01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:22,400
Speaker 2: But it was about scoring and the fact that she

1347
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:27,479
Speaker 2: took these long shots and everything else. Now she's passing

1348
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:32,520
Speaker 2: the ball. I just wonder, does that change the dynamic

1349
01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:37,160
Speaker 2: of what makes Kitlin Clark appealing. Maybe it's gonna help

1350
01:11:37,160 --> 01:11:39,519
Speaker 2: her team, maybe it's gonna make her a better all

1351
01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:42,720
Speaker 2: around player. But wasn't the reason we were interested in

1352
01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:45,760
Speaker 2: Kitlyn Clark is that she was firing up thirty foot

1353
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:46,880
Speaker 2: shots and making them.

1354
01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 3: Wasn't that the appeal?

1355
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:52,400
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah yeah. Look if Steph Curry

1356
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:57,840
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, out of Davidson became like a

1357
01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,160
Speaker 1: John Stockton player.

1358
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:02,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, like a real point guard instead of shooting the ball.

1359
01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:05,559
Speaker 1: Right right, exactly like And don't get me wrong, Steph Curry,

1360
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:09,080
Speaker 1: you know he can drive the lane and his shot creation,

1361
01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 1: especially because he's a smaller point guard, and his ball

1362
01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 1: handling has been as much of an asset as his

1363
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,680
Speaker 1: off ball movement and three point shooting. You know, he

1364
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:24,760
Speaker 1: he's truly a He's not a one trick pony, I

1365
01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:26,400
Speaker 1: guess is the point I'm trying to rive at. But

1366
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,360
Speaker 1: I want to talk Kaitlin Clark. So the comparison works though,

1367
01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:33,040
Speaker 1: because he is a deep three shooter and that's what

1368
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:35,720
Speaker 1: he became famous for in college basketball, and it obviously

1369
01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:38,720
Speaker 1: made the transition to the NBA, and it netted the

1370
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors their championships, their dynasty, and so it

1371
01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:47,160
Speaker 1: would be weird and it would have been different, and

1372
01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:50,800
Speaker 1: it probably wouldn't have nearly changed things as much as

1373
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,720
Speaker 1: it did, not only for the NBA but all of

1374
01:12:53,840 --> 01:13:00,960
Speaker 1: basketball if Steph Curry accommodated his game to the instead

1375
01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 1: of bending the sport to his game. And that's the

1376
01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:08,759
Speaker 1: reason why Steph Curry is the greatest three point shooter

1377
01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:12,280
Speaker 1: of all time in my opinion, because no three point

1378
01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:18,719
Speaker 1: shooter has ever made the game bend to his will

1379
01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:22,040
Speaker 1: the way that Steph Curry did. Literally, there are going

1380
01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:25,519
Speaker 1: to be NBA players now entering the draft in these

1381
01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:29,080
Speaker 1: upcoming years, you know, say three years from now, we'll

1382
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,280
Speaker 1: see the first wave, but it's already happening that are

1383
01:13:32,320 --> 01:13:35,080
Speaker 1: going to have modeled their entire game after Steph Curry.

1384
01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:38,040
Speaker 1: Their entire young life, gone through the college ranks, and

1385
01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,559
Speaker 1: they enter the league and that is going to be

1386
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,600
Speaker 1: the prototype they followed and it worked. Caitlin Clark is

1387
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,280
Speaker 1: really the first on the women's side to do this,

1388
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: and so the fact that she had this nineteen assist

1389
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:52,679
Speaker 1: game and it broke a WNBA record, I don't think

1390
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:56,080
Speaker 1: necessarily means that she's steering her game away from the

1391
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 1: three point shot. But I will say this, if she does,

1392
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:03,120
Speaker 1: it's going to change the national perception on Caitlin Clark

1393
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:07,120
Speaker 1: because it would be abrupt, it would be something we're

1394
01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:09,920
Speaker 1: so not used to seeing with her. I don't think

1395
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:11,840
Speaker 1: that's gonna be the case, though, do you. I think

1396
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:13,840
Speaker 1: it's a lot of more of a one off experience.

1397
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:18,679
Speaker 2: Once again, I call attention to myself because last week,

1398
01:14:18,720 --> 01:14:21,680
Speaker 2: in your absence, I made the argument that if you

1399
01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:24,760
Speaker 2: were really to break it down, Angel Reese is the

1400
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:29,120
Speaker 2: rookie of the year, and I pointed out this stat Angel.

1401
01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:30,040
Speaker 3: Reason Caitlin Clark.

1402
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:33,960
Speaker 2: As of last weekend, we're each leading the league in

1403
01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:39,360
Speaker 2: one category. Angel Reese is leading the WNBA in rebounding.

1404
01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:46,080
Speaker 2: Kaitlin Clark is leading the league in turnovers, So each

1405
01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:50,160
Speaker 2: is leading the league in one category rebounds versus turnovers

1406
01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:54,519
Speaker 2: advantage Reese. But after that nineteen assist game, now Caitlin

1407
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:57,839
Speaker 2: Clark is leading the league in assist so I think

1408
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:02,120
Speaker 2: she was listening he took offense to my comment and

1409
01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 2: had this assist explosion, so that she's now leading the

1410
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:10,600
Speaker 2: league in a positive category instead of a negative category.

1411
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 1: So look here, here is the brass tacks of this

1412
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:21,679
Speaker 1: in like, when we really distill this conversation to what's

1413
01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:25,000
Speaker 1: at play here is Caitlin Clark is still developing at

1414
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:28,800
Speaker 1: a professional level. The level of play from college basketball

1415
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:32,200
Speaker 1: or frankly, let me just speak vaguely and more generally

1416
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:36,360
Speaker 1: about this, but from college sports to professional sports is profound.

1417
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:40,120
Speaker 1: It's an enormous leap. And those who can make that

1418
01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:44,200
Speaker 1: leap seamlessly, who like in the case of CJ. Stroud

1419
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,920
Speaker 1: we were discus discussing earlier in the show, like somebody

1420
01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:51,880
Speaker 1: who can burst on the scene and regardless the circumstances,

1421
01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:55,320
Speaker 1: new head coach, injuries on the offensive line, a revolving

1422
01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:58,800
Speaker 1: cast to character a receiver due to injury can have

1423
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 1: the level of success he has That is so rare

1424
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:06,719
Speaker 1: it is so incredibly rare. It usually takes a couple

1425
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:10,120
Speaker 1: of years to feel at home at the professional level,

1426
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,880
Speaker 1: regardless of how great you were at the college level.

1427
01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:17,000
Speaker 1: It can happen, but it's rare. Now, Caitlyn Clark can

1428
01:16:17,080 --> 01:16:20,040
Speaker 1: still be a rare talent and not be the rookie

1429
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:22,519
Speaker 1: of the year. Caitlyn Clark can still be a rare

1430
01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:26,640
Speaker 1: talent and not have the most impressive rookie year of

1431
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:31,800
Speaker 1: all that we've ever seen in WNBA history, and she

1432
01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:36,280
Speaker 1: can work herself into becoming the greatest of all time. Potentially.

1433
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:38,680
Speaker 1: We don't know where this story is heading, but I

1434
01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:42,680
Speaker 1: can tell you one thing is its starting point is

1435
01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:46,519
Speaker 1: very similar to many great players throughout the history of sports.

1436
01:16:46,760 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 1: Not everybody got it right away. A lot of people

1437
01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:52,800
Speaker 1: had that slow role into success, and Caitlin Clark could

1438
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:53,679
Speaker 1: be another one of those.

1439
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:56,880
Speaker 2: On the other side, an NFL team is returning home

1440
01:16:58,360 --> 01:16:59,200
Speaker 2: and nobody knows.

1441
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:01,679
Speaker 3: We'll explain.

1442
01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:10,280
Speaker 2: This is Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin, Rich Armberger, Fox

1443
01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:15,240
Speaker 2: Sports Sunday. We are live from theentirerack dot Com studios.

1444
01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:17,240
Speaker 3: We're too short on time to get to what I

1445
01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:17,840
Speaker 3: wanted to get to.

1446
01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:23,280
Speaker 1: Now, maybe we could do it like Lightning Round Edition?

1447
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:24,920
Speaker 3: Do you think so?

1448
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's trade off. We're only allowed to speak twenty

1449
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:29,720
Speaker 1: seconds at a time once you set it up.

1450
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,479
Speaker 3: I know you hate that, you hate that so much,

1451
01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:41,200
Speaker 3: twenty seconds, But planet are you from twenty seconds? It's

1452
01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:43,320
Speaker 3: so funny when I started working with Rich.

1453
01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:46,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if you've known this over the years,

1454
01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 2: if you've listened to any of the shows I've done

1455
01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:53,000
Speaker 2: over these many years, but I'm really in love with

1456
01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:57,240
Speaker 2: the sound of my own voice correct and many times,

1457
01:17:57,280 --> 01:17:59,639
Speaker 2: as Rich and many of my partners over the years

1458
01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:04,200
Speaker 2: have found out, I rarely listen to anything they actually

1459
01:18:04,240 --> 01:18:10,280
Speaker 2: say correct. So it's not uncommon for me to say

1460
01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:17,479
Speaker 2: something that my partner literally has just said correct with conviction,

1461
01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:21,400
Speaker 2: like I have. You haven't said anything that is of interest.

1462
01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:24,720
Speaker 2: I'm going to say something right now, and I literally.

1463
01:18:24,360 --> 01:18:28,240
Speaker 3: Almost work for work. We'll repeat what it is my

1464
01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:31,080
Speaker 3: partner has just said, that's right, Okay, that's right. Yeah,

1465
01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:33,880
Speaker 3: So to suddenly narrow it down to twenty second, we'll

1466
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:34,880
Speaker 3: just save it. We'll just save it.

1467
01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:35,880
Speaker 1: Okay, we could save it.

1468
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 3: We'll just save it. That's fine.

1469
01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:39,880
Speaker 2: One thing I do want to mention, though, is We're

1470
01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:42,080
Speaker 2: gonna have John Palm Morossi coming up in the next hour.

1471
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:45,519
Speaker 2: He'll be joining us live from Cooperstown, where the Baseball

1472
01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:49,000
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame induction ceremonies are going on right now.

1473
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,680
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you what I'm going to ask him,

1474
01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:54,000
Speaker 2: Not so much about today, because I'm always thinking about

1475
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:57,200
Speaker 2: next year, and I know Rich's total disdain for any

1476
01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:00,479
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame and he's made that infinitely clear. But

1477
01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,639
Speaker 2: it's going to be three questions I'm going to ask

1478
01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:05,720
Speaker 2: him about the twenty twenty five ballot. Here are the

1479
01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:11,639
Speaker 2: three questions. Will Billy Wagner, the longtime Releaf pitcher, make

1480
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:13,760
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame next year on his final time

1481
01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:14,400
Speaker 2: on the ballot?

1482
01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:15,200
Speaker 3: That's one question?

1483
01:19:16,439 --> 01:19:17,000
Speaker 1: Is C. C.

1484
01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:21,400
Speaker 3: Sabathia a first ballot Hall of Famer?

1485
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,920
Speaker 2: Oh, two hundred and fifty plus wins, three thousand strikeouts,

1486
01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:28,720
Speaker 2: Cy Young Award? And then a guy we know will

1487
01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:31,760
Speaker 2: be a first ballot Hall of Famer is Ichiro Suzuki.

1488
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:37,960
Speaker 2: But will each Hero join Mariano Rivera as the only

1489
01:19:38,479 --> 01:19:43,680
Speaker 2: unanimous choices ever? And is there any way that you

1490
01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:45,200
Speaker 2: could not vote?

1491
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:48,320
Speaker 1: Could you vote against Eachiro?

1492
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:50,880
Speaker 2: I don't know, because if you add the if you

1493
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:53,040
Speaker 2: add the hits he had in Japan, had before he

1494
01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:55,840
Speaker 2: came to the major leagues at age twenty seven, it's

1495
01:19:55,880 --> 01:19:59,400
Speaker 2: over forty three hundred hits more than Pete Rose. And

1496
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:01,840
Speaker 2: it's the pro Oh Baseball Hall of Fame. Well, it's

1497

1500
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:14,599
Speaker 1: here's the question we'll ask John. Yeah, what's the argument

1501
01:20:14,720 --> 01:20:16,639
Speaker 1: against him getting every vote? Right?

1502
01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:21,559
Speaker 3: Well, I mean again, nine people didn't vote for Willie Mays. Oh,

1503
01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:22,439
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, that's right.

Speaker 3: All right, I wanted to share this.

1535
01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:57,519
Speaker 2: Quick story before the top of the hour. But so

1536
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:01,599
Speaker 2: it was thirty years ago. Actually it was funny forty

1537
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:07,080
Speaker 2: years ago yesterday, rich forty years ago yesterday, July twentieth,

1538
01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:12,479
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty four was my first day working for the Raiders.

1539
01:22:13,080 --> 01:22:13,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

1540
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:17,240
Speaker 2: So I was twenty six and it was they had

1541
01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:19,759
Speaker 2: just won the Super Bowl, their third and eight years,

1542
01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:21,200
Speaker 2: and I thought, I'm.

1543
01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 3: Going to get a lot of rings. They haven't won

1544
01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:28,000
Speaker 3: one since. The Harvin Curse has very bench in elements.

1545
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 2: But it's thirty years ago, believe it or not, that

1546
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:35,559
Speaker 2: the Raiders had their final season in LA. And I

1547
01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:38,320
Speaker 2: know a lot of people when I casually mentioned not

1548
01:22:38,880 --> 01:22:42,840
Speaker 2: that I overstated that I worked for the Raiders, people often.

1549
01:22:42,640 --> 01:22:45,920
Speaker 3: Asked me, well, you know, so, how was Oakland? I said,

1550
01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 3: I was never in Oakland. I worked for the Los

1551
01:22:48,560 --> 01:22:51,920
Speaker 3: Angeles Raiders. It's like Marcus Allen, he played eleven years

1552
01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:53,960
Speaker 3: for the Raiders, all in LA.

1553
01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:55,240
Speaker 1: That's right.

1554
01:22:55,720 --> 01:22:58,439
Speaker 3: Howie Long played thirteen years of the Raiders, twelve of

1555
01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:01,720
Speaker 3: thirteen in LA. His rookie season they were the oklahoma Ers.

1556
01:23:01,760 --> 01:23:03,120
Speaker 3: So the LA Raiders existed.

1557
01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 1: Well.

1558
01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:10,240
Speaker 3: Apparently the Raiders are now going to have their training

1559
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:16,519
Speaker 3: camp in Costa Mesa. Why haven't we heard about this?

1560
01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:18,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is interesting.

1561
01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:22,200
Speaker 3: The reason we haven't heard about this move is that

1562
01:23:22,240 --> 01:23:27,639
Speaker 3: they're not, by law NFL policy allowed to promote their

1563
01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:34,040
Speaker 3: presence because SoCal belongs to the Rams and the Chargers.

1564
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:36,040
Speaker 1: That is fascinating.

1565
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:41,160
Speaker 3: So they can't do their no billboards, no ads, they

1566
01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:45,639
Speaker 3: can't have fans go to. I mean, it's like total

1567
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:47,880
Speaker 3: anonymity for a team.

1568
01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:52,120
Speaker 2: That I promise you and Rich knowses the Raiders are

1569
01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:57,600
Speaker 2: still the most popular NFL team in Los Angeles.

1570
01:23:57,640 --> 01:24:01,120
Speaker 1: Oh, there's no doubt. And their there isn't a close second.

1571
01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:02,720
Speaker 3: There isn't a close second.

1572
01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:07,120
Speaker 2: They have more fans in Los Angeles than there are

1573
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:11,240
Speaker 2: Rams fans and Chargers fans combined in Los Angeles.

1574
01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:13,680
Speaker 1: Correct, So that you.

1575
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:20,320
Speaker 2: Talk about awkward, it is awkward, especially for the Chargers

1576
01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:25,439
Speaker 2: who have a very limited fan base in the city

1577
01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:28,559
Speaker 2: of Los Angeles, very limited, especially if.

1578
01:24:28,439 --> 01:24:29,839
Speaker 3: You're going to compare it to the Raiders.

1579
01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:35,280
Speaker 2: But I love how the NFL green lighted this, that

1580
01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,760
Speaker 2: the Raiders had to be told, yeah, there's no you're

1581
01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:41,160
Speaker 2: not allowed to publicize this.

1582
01:24:41,880 --> 01:24:46,000
Speaker 1: Right at all. Right, Well, what's interesting is I'm curious

1583
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:49,240
Speaker 1: if social media counts like and and what I mean

1584
01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:53,040
Speaker 1: by that is sometimes you can you can do things

1585
01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:56,120
Speaker 1: on social media to promote that you're in a certain place.

1586
01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:59,000
Speaker 1: Like you could take, I don't know, you can mash

1587
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:05,400
Speaker 1: up a a video that you create highlighting your training

1588
01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 1: camp so far, where you have city shots that are

1589
01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:11,400
Speaker 1: spliced in. Like, so, if all of a sudden, the

1590
01:25:11,439 --> 01:25:15,639
Speaker 1: Raiders social media team posts a video of their training

1591
01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:19,080
Speaker 1: camp that has you know, cut shots of the Hollywood

1592
01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:22,599
Speaker 1: Sign and cut shots of you know, the Santa Monica

1593
01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:26,000
Speaker 1: peer are is are they in trouble with the NFL?

1594
01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:26,160
Speaker 3: Like?

1595
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:30,720
Speaker 1: Where is the gray area they're allowed to to to

1596
01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:34,200
Speaker 1: to exist in? Like when they post something to Facebook

1597
01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:37,720
Speaker 1: or Instagram, you know, using any of the meta platforms

1598
01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:42,840
Speaker 1: you're allowed to geolocate, Right, So if they say Cosamesa,

1599
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:47,599
Speaker 1: California as their location of these these Instagram posts, are

1600
01:25:47,680 --> 01:25:50,559
Speaker 1: they in trouble with the NFL? So I'm very curious

1601
01:25:50,600 --> 01:25:56,080
Speaker 1: how the Raiders try or successfully subvert this edict sent

1602
01:25:56,160 --> 01:25:58,880
Speaker 1: down by the NFL, because I get it. You know,

1603
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:01,160
Speaker 1: it's kind of like trying to go and mowing another

1604
01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:05,040
Speaker 1: guy's lawn. You know, it's it's probably not something you

1605
01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:08,479
Speaker 1: should do, you know, so I get it well.

1606
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:11,759
Speaker 2: And the story behind this is because they've been training

1607
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:16,400
Speaker 2: in Henderson, Nevada since twenty twenty, after they moved from

1608
01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:18,680
Speaker 2: that Napa Valley area of course, where the Raiders had

1609
01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:22,519
Speaker 2: been for years. And this really comes down to Antonio Pierce.

1610
01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:25,160
Speaker 2: So Antonio Piers grew up.

1611
01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:26,320
Speaker 1: In Compton's right.

1612
01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:28,320
Speaker 3: And then this is.

1613
01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:31,360
Speaker 2: Interesting about training camps, and I'm always curious about this.

1614
01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:35,919
Speaker 2: There's so many there's so many legendary stories about training

1615
01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:41,160
Speaker 2: camps and coach's decisions to move training camps to get

1616
01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,839
Speaker 2: teams more focused for the upcoming season.

1617
01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:47,679
Speaker 3: And apparently Antonio Piers is one.

1618
01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:48,559
Speaker 1: Of those, right.

1619
01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:51,679
Speaker 2: He thinks it's a little too cushy to be sort

1620
01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:56,519
Speaker 2: of home for training camp. He feels like moving the

1621
01:26:56,560 --> 01:27:00,320
Speaker 2: training camp off the premises to another locate.

1622
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:08,280
Speaker 3: Is better for the bonding of a team. And you

1623
01:27:08,320 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 3: know we talk about the Junction Boys, right, you know,

1624
01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 3: you go the old Texas.

1625
01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:13,439
Speaker 2: A and m at Bear Bryan and you know out

1626
01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:14,760
Speaker 2: in the middle of the desert, you don't want to

1627
01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:17,719
Speaker 2: go to those extremes. But I remember a legendary Charger

1628
01:27:17,800 --> 01:27:19,920
Speaker 2: story with Sid Gilman back in the sixties where he

1629
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:23,920
Speaker 2: did something very similar where the Chargers train in the

1630
01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:27,400
Speaker 2: most god forsaken place after a losing season and put

1631
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:30,000
Speaker 2: the team back together and they responded by winning an

1632
01:27:30,040 --> 01:27:32,920
Speaker 2: AFL championship. How did you feel about I don't know

1633
01:27:32,920 --> 01:27:34,960
Speaker 2: what the all the training camps you went to over

1634
01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:38,519
Speaker 2: the years, but is there something to be said about

1635
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:44,040
Speaker 2: holding training camp completely away from the market that you're

1636
01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:44,800
Speaker 2: familiar with.

1637
01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:47,880
Speaker 1: I think there's something to be said about it. Now

1638
01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:54,160
Speaker 1: here's here's the reasons why. So when you are when

1639
01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:58,240
Speaker 1: you're when you're staying in training camp, regardless of of

1640
01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:03,160
Speaker 1: regardless of where your training camp is, you're staying at

1641
01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:07,559
Speaker 1: an off site hotel. So even even when like for example,

1642
01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:11,479
Speaker 1: the the you know, I played for the Patriots and

1643
01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:14,679
Speaker 1: the Cardinals and the Chargers. The Patriots and the Chargers,

1644
01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:18,639
Speaker 1: they didn't travel away from their home site at those

1645
01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:22,800
Speaker 1: times for training camp. So we were holed up in

1646
01:28:22,960 --> 01:28:25,840
Speaker 1: a Foxborough residence in for training camp when I was

1647
01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:29,640
Speaker 1: with New England and for the Chargers training camp, so

1648
01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:32,640
Speaker 1: while they were still still in San Diego, there was

1649
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:35,760
Speaker 1: like a Hilton or something down the road from the

1650
01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:38,679
Speaker 1: training facility, and that's where we stayed in the whole

1651
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:43,519
Speaker 1: team stayed in the hotel, and that creates a couple

1652
01:28:43,560 --> 01:28:45,680
Speaker 1: of there's a couple of different reasons for it. It's

1653
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:49,679
Speaker 1: easier access to the athletic trainers. It's a hard part

1654
01:28:49,720 --> 01:28:51,640
Speaker 1: of the year where a lot of guys are, you know,

1655
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:53,880
Speaker 1: their bodies are getting beaten down a little bit, so

1656
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:56,600
Speaker 1: they need more recovery time. So it's good to be,

1657
01:28:56,720 --> 01:28:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, only a quick drive five minutes away as

1658
01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:02,280
Speaker 1: opposed to be back your house. It also helps for

1659
01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:05,760
Speaker 1: player curfew because during training camp, you know, you get

1660
01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:08,040
Speaker 1: a knock on your door at whatever it is, lights

1661
01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:10,920
Speaker 1: out time, ten o'clock, you know, making sure you're in

1662
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:13,599
Speaker 1: your room, you're studying your playbook instead of running around

1663
01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:16,519
Speaker 1: you know, all those things you know, and really training

1664
01:29:16,560 --> 01:29:20,439
Speaker 1: camp it's more for the younger players from that aspect

1665
01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:22,400
Speaker 1: than it is for the veteran players who've been around

1666
01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:25,800
Speaker 1: for a while. However, I will say this off site

1667
01:29:25,840 --> 01:29:28,679
Speaker 1: training camps, what happens when you're given a day off.

1668
01:29:29,439 --> 01:29:32,120
Speaker 1: Many times they do it in a fashion where you

1669
01:29:32,160 --> 01:29:34,720
Speaker 1: can't forecast when your day off is going to be,

1670
01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:38,679
Speaker 1: so you can't call your family and being like, hey,

1671
01:29:38,720 --> 01:29:42,080
Speaker 1: guess what, you know, we have the day off in

1672
01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:44,240
Speaker 1: three days. Why don't you gather up the kids. We'll

1673
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:47,040
Speaker 1: do something fun around Courtland, New York. In the case

1674
01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:48,439
Speaker 1: for the New York Jets when they used to go

1675
01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:52,200
Speaker 1: up to that college or flag Staff, you know, nau

1676
01:29:52,400 --> 01:29:54,680
Speaker 1: with the Arizona Cardinals where they used to have their

1677
01:29:54,720 --> 01:29:57,439
Speaker 1: training camp. Like, you can't do that because usually you

1678
01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:00,320
Speaker 1: find out the night before, all right, you got again

1679
01:30:00,439 --> 01:30:03,040
Speaker 1: the day off tomorrow. Don't do anything stupid. And so

1680
01:30:03,200 --> 01:30:06,160
Speaker 1: what a lot of guys will do is you'll you'll

1681
01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:08,600
Speaker 1: go out with your teammates. You'll get some burgers and

1682
01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:12,120
Speaker 1: some beers with your teammates. It's a form of team bonding.

1683
01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:15,679
Speaker 1: So I actually am in favor of having off site

1684
01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:18,679
Speaker 1: training camps. I think that in terms of building a team,

1685
01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:23,320
Speaker 1: building stronger bonds, having story to tell, references from nights

1686
01:30:23,360 --> 01:30:26,880
Speaker 1: out together, things like that, I think it matters. You know,

1687
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:29,840
Speaker 1: card games, you know where, you know you're not going

1688
01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:31,920
Speaker 1: home and checking on the kids. Your wife has zero

1689
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:35,080
Speaker 1: expectations of it, whatever it may be. Like you you

1690
01:30:35,120 --> 01:30:37,519
Speaker 1: are you are locked into football for a month, and

1691
01:30:37,520 --> 01:30:38,840
Speaker 1: I think it benefits a team.

1692
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:42,200
Speaker 2: And by the way, for many many years, Al Davis

1693
01:30:42,280 --> 01:30:45,439
Speaker 2: was not a proponent of fans attending training camp at all.

1694
01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:49,240
Speaker 2: In fact, after mister Davis passed away is when his

1695
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:51,480
Speaker 2: son Mark decided to allow.

1696
01:30:51,200 --> 01:30:53,479
Speaker 3: Fans in NAPA to actually show up.

1697
01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:57,599
Speaker 2: Are you a fan as a player to have fans

1698
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:01,439
Speaker 2: at training camp? Does it really matter impacted at all?

1699
01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:04,639
Speaker 2: I mean, because like I said, you know, Al Davis

1700
01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:08,040
Speaker 2: was always paranoid about anybody you know, watching even a

1701
01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:11,719
Speaker 2: practice like okay, they're gonna be stealing something or observing something.

1702
01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:14,160
Speaker 3: You know. He was in a constant state of paranoida

1703
01:31:14,160 --> 01:31:15,040
Speaker 3: in that respect.

1704
01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:18,240
Speaker 2: And then other teams they will gave me a thousands

1705
01:31:18,240 --> 01:31:19,880
Speaker 2: of fans to show up at training camp.

1706
01:31:19,920 --> 01:31:22,400
Speaker 3: Does it matter from a player's stand one way or

1707
01:31:22,400 --> 01:31:22,720
Speaker 3: the other.

1708
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:28,639
Speaker 1: I think I've always viewed it as helpful because I mean,

1709
01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:31,720
Speaker 1: certain training camp days they don't allow. You know, it's

1710
01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:34,840
Speaker 1: a closed training camp practice day where you can sort

1711
01:31:34,880 --> 01:31:39,680
Speaker 1: of work on things that are more geared toward an

1712
01:31:39,760 --> 01:31:43,280
Speaker 1: upcoming opponent that you don't necessarily want to see, you know,

1713
01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:48,880
Speaker 1: have the general public see also. I think I think

1714
01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:51,920
Speaker 1: it breaks up the monotony of training camp. I also

1715
01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:56,840
Speaker 1: think it brings a certain level of heightened expectation for

1716
01:31:56,920 --> 01:32:00,519
Speaker 1: certain players, Like there are certain guys who perform better

1717
01:32:00,920 --> 01:32:03,439
Speaker 1: when there's a crowd. Sure, there are certain guys who

1718
01:32:03,880 --> 01:32:06,439
Speaker 1: you know they're terrible at practice, but when you get

1719
01:32:06,479 --> 01:32:09,200
Speaker 1: them on game day, it's like watching a completely different player.

1720
01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:12,200
Speaker 1: I've played with many players like that, where they are

1721
01:32:12,560 --> 01:32:16,160
Speaker 1: terrible practice players, but they're you know, you call them gamers,

1722
01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:18,000
Speaker 1: you know, and they're able to go out there on

1723
01:32:18,080 --> 01:32:21,719
Speaker 1: game day and just you know, just have unbelievable success.

1724
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:24,240
Speaker 1: And the reason why it's all unbelievable is because of

1725
01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:28,720
Speaker 1: how you know, awful their practice habits are. So I

1726
01:32:28,760 --> 01:32:32,080
Speaker 1: do think in many cases in training camp, having a

1727
01:32:32,120 --> 01:32:36,479
Speaker 1: crowd come to practice, I mean, and then also, you know,

1728
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:39,800
Speaker 1: aside from what it does for the players psychologically, I

1729
01:32:39,800 --> 01:32:42,160
Speaker 1: think it's amazing to be able to walk up to

1730
01:32:42,200 --> 01:32:45,640
Speaker 1: the fence after practice, handle little kid your gloves and

1731
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:48,439
Speaker 1: have it be the best moment of his entire side.

1732
01:32:48,560 --> 01:32:50,920
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean I've observed it for many, many years,

1733
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:52,920
Speaker 2: many training camps over the years, and I always think

1734
01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:55,679
Speaker 2: that's a great, great part of you know, really getting

1735
01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:58,519
Speaker 2: the season going to getting in the fans very much engaged.

1736
01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:01,720
Speaker 2: Speaking of engagement, it's a huge day in Cooperstown, New

1737
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:04,799
Speaker 2: York as the Baseball Hall of Fame class of twenty

1738

1750

Speaker 1: JP.

1751
01:33:48,960 --> 01:33:51,400
Speaker 2: Saw you on TV early on the day. I know

1752
01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:54,760
Speaker 2: this is an exciting day for you, but you've been

1753
01:33:54,760 --> 01:33:56,559
Speaker 2: doing this for a number of years. You've made that

1754
01:33:56,680 --> 01:34:00,840
Speaker 2: journey to Cooperstown for these annual inductions ceremonies.

1755
01:34:01,400 --> 01:34:03,920
Speaker 3: What stands out for you personally?

1756
01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:09,720
Speaker 2: Why is this such a special experience for John Palm Morosi.

1757
01:34:10,280 --> 01:34:13,200
Speaker 10: Well, first of all, good afternoon, appreciate the chance to

1758
01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:16,479
Speaker 10: be on the show from Cooperstown. I'm literally steps away

1759
01:34:16,520 --> 01:34:18,880
Speaker 10: from the dais, which is pretty cool to be able

1760
01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:21,400
Speaker 10: to speak with you from right here. But I would

1761
01:34:21,439 --> 01:34:23,800
Speaker 10: say that, actually I shared this with somebody a few

1762
01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:27,920
Speaker 10: minutes ago as the ceremony was wrapping up. This must

1763
01:34:28,240 --> 01:34:32,519
Speaker 10: be what it feels like to officiate weddings every day,

1764
01:34:32,840 --> 01:34:35,840
Speaker 10: because you're around people on the greatest day of their

1765
01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:39,720
Speaker 10: lives all the time. And that's what this is. And

1766
01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:43,200
Speaker 10: so no matter what your journey is, no matter what

1767
01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:45,920
Speaker 10: percent vote total you got you got, or how many

1768
01:34:45,960 --> 01:34:49,360
Speaker 10: years it took, whatever it was, you're there. You're in

1769
01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:52,519
Speaker 10: the hall. And so I think that that moment of

1770
01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:56,240
Speaker 10: you look up at the at the inductees as they're

1771
01:34:56,240 --> 01:34:58,599
Speaker 10: given their speeches and just starting to give the speech.

1772
01:34:58,880 --> 01:35:02,200
Speaker 10: And I'm lucky that my broadcast position is right next

1773
01:35:02,240 --> 01:35:04,840
Speaker 10: to the stage, so I get to sort of see

1774
01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:07,240
Speaker 10: a little bit of what the enormity of the of

1775
01:35:07,280 --> 01:35:10,439
Speaker 10: the vastness of the space looks like. It's the most

1776
01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:13,680
Speaker 10: important part of this weekend is it's free. Admission is

1777
01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:16,639
Speaker 10: free as far as the eye can see and as

1778
01:35:16,680 --> 01:35:19,120
Speaker 10: much of the space as you can fill, and so

1779
01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:23,920
Speaker 10: to be able to sort of look at the inductees

1780
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:27,080
Speaker 10: as they're looking out, and then just as importantly look

1781
01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:31,320
Speaker 10: at the reaction of the family when when they're speaking

1782
01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:34,639
Speaker 10: about family, and the moment when Jim Leland spoke about

1783
01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:38,040
Speaker 10: Gene Lamont. I mean, these are moments that that I'm

1784
01:35:38,080 --> 01:35:39,640
Speaker 10: going to hold dear in my heart. And so just

1785
01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:42,400
Speaker 10: to understand, you know, we get the stories of the

1786
01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:44,840
Speaker 10: players for a lot of their careers, and the manager

1787
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:48,080
Speaker 10: in the case of Jim Leland, but we don't often

1788
01:35:48,120 --> 01:35:51,479
Speaker 10: get to hear them just speak about the journey for

1789
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:55,840
Speaker 10: ten minutes and sometimes longer, sometimes shorter, but you get

1790
01:35:55,880 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 10: a real feel for what animated them, what motivated them,

1791
01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:01,320
Speaker 10: and how it all worked. And I just think that's

1792
01:36:01,800 --> 01:36:04,040
Speaker 10: a very special thing to be able to behold and

1793
01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:06,040
Speaker 10: to do it in person is a great privilege.

1794
01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:09,519
Speaker 1: Jp you've seen many of these speeches, you've attended many

1795
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:12,519
Speaker 1: of these events. So what's the through line? What do

1796
01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:15,439
Speaker 1: you think makes a great baseball player?

1797
01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:19,080
Speaker 10: Well, it's a great question, Rich I think that a

1798
01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:20,680
Speaker 10: couple of things stand out, and we heard it a

1799
01:36:20,720 --> 01:36:24,400
Speaker 10: lot from Joe Mauer and his speech. It's the values

1800
01:36:24,840 --> 01:36:29,280
Speaker 10: that will carry you through and how you define your

1801
01:36:29,439 --> 01:36:32,720
Speaker 10: character and how your family background shapes that. And I

1802
01:36:32,800 --> 01:36:36,280
Speaker 10: thought the most important Joe was saying about his youth baseball,

1803
01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:39,479
Speaker 10: youth sports career was riding in the car with his parents,

1804
01:36:39,960 --> 01:36:42,639
Speaker 10: and the thing he said was, we weren't talking about

1805
01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:45,920
Speaker 10: breaking down your swing. We're talking about sportsmanship and how

1806
01:36:45,960 --> 01:36:49,800
Speaker 10: to be respectful towards umpires and the opposition. These are

1807
01:36:49,840 --> 01:36:53,160
Speaker 10: the fundamentals. The love of the game that Beltray has

1808
01:36:53,960 --> 01:36:56,080
Speaker 10: still to this day, and the joy that he played

1809
01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:59,000
Speaker 10: with a smile on his face when he would joke

1810
01:36:59,040 --> 01:37:01,240
Speaker 10: around with either his own own teammates of the opposition.

1811
01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:05,400
Speaker 10: That was what he brought. The professionalism of a Todd Helton,

1812
01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:09,760
Speaker 10: the passion and the authenticity of a Jim Leland. These

1813
01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:14,479
Speaker 10: are the values. And skill is a prerequisite. Okay, that's

1814
01:37:14,479 --> 01:37:17,920
Speaker 10: a necessity. You have to have the skill, But I

1815
01:37:17,960 --> 01:37:21,760
Speaker 10: think it's it's the combination of the skill with maintaining

1816
01:37:22,400 --> 01:37:24,919
Speaker 10: the love and in the case of the players, maintaining

1817
01:37:24,960 --> 01:37:26,639
Speaker 10: your body and your health for a long period of time.

1818
01:37:26,680 --> 01:37:28,880
Speaker 10: Because and you know this, I can't remember who said this.

1819
01:37:29,360 --> 01:37:31,920
Speaker 10: Within the last year, I had this mentioned to me,

1820
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:35,960
Speaker 10: and it really resonates being a great player. A lot

1821
01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:39,720
Speaker 10: of it involves things that you say no to right

1822
01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:42,960
Speaker 10: in terms of the things, whether it's the temptations or

1823
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:45,120
Speaker 10: the things that knock you out of your routine, You've

1824
01:37:45,200 --> 01:37:48,840
Speaker 10: got to stay on your routine for a long time

1825
01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:51,920
Speaker 10: if you want to endure. You don't get to this

1826
01:37:52,120 --> 01:37:55,760
Speaker 10: hall for having one great year. It's a great lifetime,

1827
01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:58,920
Speaker 10: and that's hard to do. By the way, We're all human,

1828
01:37:58,960 --> 01:38:01,800
Speaker 10: we all make mistakes. But I think it's that consistency

1829
01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,640
Speaker 10: of the value of caring about what you're doing that

1830
01:38:05,760 --> 01:38:08,439
Speaker 10: I think makes the most and makes for a Hall

1831
01:38:08,479 --> 01:38:11,280
Speaker 10: of Famer. So you don't get here without passion. And

1832
01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:13,559
Speaker 10: I think that for all of us who are parents

1833
01:38:13,640 --> 01:38:15,680
Speaker 10: of kids who are involved in sports or whatever the

1834
01:38:15,760 --> 01:38:21,120
Speaker 10: activity is, recognize that we can only coach or direct

1835
01:38:21,160 --> 01:38:23,880
Speaker 10: so much when it comes to the techniques or whatever

1836
01:38:23,920 --> 01:38:27,519
Speaker 10: it is. The passion cannot be coached. Young people that

1837
01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:30,360
Speaker 10: can be encouraged, but there has to be that spark

1838
01:38:30,400 --> 01:38:32,680
Speaker 10: of really caring about something. And I think that to

1839
01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:35,200
Speaker 10: make it here, you really sense that, my goodness, it is.

1840
01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:38,800
Speaker 10: It is the passion paired with the values that then

1841
01:38:38,880 --> 01:38:40,880
Speaker 10: allow the talent to rise to this level. And I

1842
01:38:40,960 --> 01:38:43,599
Speaker 10: think that's the recipe that I've seen over the years.

1843
01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:43,960
Speaker 1: All right.

1844
01:38:44,040 --> 01:38:47,439
Speaker 2: This comes from someone yours truly, that has been following

1845
01:38:47,640 --> 01:38:50,479
Speaker 2: the Baseball Hall of Fame elections religiously for well over

1846
01:38:50,600 --> 01:38:53,639
Speaker 2: fifty years. All right, So as soon as one class

1847
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:56,240
Speaker 2: is announced, I'm always turning the page to the next year.

1848
01:38:56,800 --> 01:39:00,960
Speaker 2: Three part question about the twenty twenty five and the

1849
01:39:01,080 --> 01:39:06,479
Speaker 2: ballot for the class. Three part question one, will Billy

1850
01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:10,519
Speaker 2: Wagner make it on his final attempt? Will the great

1851
01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:13,040
Speaker 2: lefty reliever making on his final attempt?

1852
01:39:13,120 --> 01:39:13,320
Speaker 1: Two?

1853
01:39:14,080 --> 01:39:17,439
Speaker 3: Will CC Sabbatha be a first ballot Hall of Famer?

1854
01:39:17,640 --> 01:39:20,959
Speaker 1: And three will each hero join.

1855
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 2: Mariano Rivera as the only unanimous selections for the Baseball

1856
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:25,880
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame?

1857
01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:27,280
Speaker 10: Steve, we are.

1858
01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:28,000
Speaker 1: Aligned, my friend.

1859
01:39:28,200 --> 01:39:30,560
Speaker 10: Yes, yes, and yes, I was actually chatting about this

1860
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:33,639
Speaker 10: very topic yesterday with Jay Jaffies at such a great

1861
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 10: job as a baseball historian and writer who follows the

1862
01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:39,599
Speaker 10: Hall of Fame very carefully, and I agree. I think

1863
01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:42,960
Speaker 10: CC is trending in that direction of going in on

1864
01:39:43,120 --> 01:39:45,560
Speaker 10: the first ballot, much like Mauer. I think in the

1865
01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:49,200
Speaker 10: case of maur his candidacy because of he moved off

1866
01:39:49,240 --> 01:39:52,599
Speaker 10: of ketcher later in his career. Injuries took away some time,

1867
01:39:53,320 --> 01:39:56,880
Speaker 10: so I think Joe's candidacy wasn't perfect, but it was

1868
01:39:56,960 --> 01:39:59,200
Speaker 10: certainly worthy of the Hall. And I think that we

1869
01:39:59,280 --> 01:40:02,000
Speaker 10: are now moving in in the direction of when you

1870
01:40:02,160 --> 01:40:05,120
Speaker 10: recognize greatness that will eventually get to the Hall of Fame,

1871
01:40:05,760 --> 01:40:07,720
Speaker 10: just vote for him right now. And I think that

1872
01:40:07,920 --> 01:40:11,040
Speaker 10: was certainly my approach with Joe. I planned to vote

1873
01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:13,720
Speaker 10: for CC a year from now. I certainly planned to

1874
01:40:13,800 --> 01:40:16,479
Speaker 10: vote for eachiro. I don't see how anybody could not.

1875
01:40:17,240 --> 01:40:20,960
Speaker 10: And Wagner I support, and I think that he deserves

1876
01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:23,280
Speaker 10: that nudge over the threshold. It's going to be close,

1877
01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:25,639
Speaker 10: but I do think Billy Wagner one of the most

1878
01:40:25,680 --> 01:40:29,479
Speaker 10: dominant relief pitchers of all time and certainly a reliever

1879
01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:31,400
Speaker 10: who helped to define an era. So I think Billy

1880
01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:32,160
Speaker 10: Wagner gets in.

1881
01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:33,160
Speaker 1: I agree with you.

1882
01:40:33,240 --> 01:40:36,840
Speaker 10: It's a three person class from the player side that

1883
01:40:37,120 --> 01:40:39,280
Speaker 10: in terms of the writer's ballot, and we'll see if

1884
01:40:39,320 --> 01:40:41,960
Speaker 10: anybody gets elected by the Era committees as well.

1885
01:40:42,960 --> 01:40:45,760
Speaker 1: It's an interesting time in baseball. You come off of

1886
01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:48,719
Speaker 1: the break, the All Star Game, and then of course

1887
01:40:49,200 --> 01:40:52,160
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame inductions, and then here we are

1888
01:40:53,040 --> 01:40:55,639
Speaker 1: days away from the trade that line, so the focus

1889
01:40:55,840 --> 01:40:59,599
Speaker 1: kind of you know, it fades from Major League Baseball

1890
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:01,760
Speaker 1: to folks us on the stars than the greats of

1891
01:41:01,840 --> 01:41:04,799
Speaker 1: the past, and then all of a sudden, the focus becomes,

1892
01:41:04,920 --> 01:41:09,599
Speaker 1: all right, what are the immediate needs to hem up

1893
01:41:09,720 --> 01:41:13,479
Speaker 1: whatever else is missing before you make the stretch run here?

1894
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:17,240
Speaker 1: So what are the storylines that you're particularly interested in

1895
01:41:17,360 --> 01:41:20,559
Speaker 1: following as we get closer to the trade deadline? Well?

1896
01:41:20,680 --> 01:41:22,800
Speaker 10: I think a couple of things. Number One, I think

1897
01:41:22,840 --> 01:41:25,200
Speaker 10: we saw two teams this weekend in Toronto who a

1898
01:41:25,280 --> 01:41:28,920
Speaker 10: lot of scouts are tracking carefully. That's the Tigers and

1899
01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:33,040
Speaker 10: the Blue Jays. Will the Tigers actually make the decision

1900
01:41:33,080 --> 01:41:36,000
Speaker 10: to trade Trek Scoobel? I think that they will listen

1901
01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:41,120
Speaker 10: and are listening, but moving him as a very different yep,

1902
01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:44,120
Speaker 10: And so I think that there's a big gap there

1903
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:47,240
Speaker 10: in terms of actually making the move. Now. The other

1904
01:41:47,320 --> 01:41:51,040
Speaker 10: piece is on the Blue Jay side of things. Is

1905
01:41:51,120 --> 01:41:55,880
Speaker 10: Vladimir Guerrero Junior right now a trade candidate with Toronto?

1906
01:41:56,040 --> 01:41:59,080
Speaker 10: Certainly with Bobashett getting injured, I think that trade possibility

1907
01:41:59,200 --> 01:42:02,320
Speaker 10: is now shut down. But do you see it, Kevin Gossman,

1908
01:42:02,439 --> 01:42:06,160
Speaker 10: Do you see a Chris Bassett potentially getting moved by Toronto.

1909
01:42:06,600 --> 01:42:10,040
Speaker 10: Seattle really needs to change the narrative in the direction

1910
01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:13,720
Speaker 10: right now. They've just been losing ground so much over

1911
01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:17,240
Speaker 10: the last month or so relative to the surge in

1912
01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,200
Speaker 10: Houston Astros. And here come the Astros again. I think

1913
01:42:20,280 --> 01:42:23,200
Speaker 10: the Mariners need to make a big trade, a big statement,

1914
01:42:23,520 --> 01:42:26,000
Speaker 10: to get themselves some momentum again. So I think those teams.

1915
01:42:26,040 --> 01:42:28,280
Speaker 10: I think that the Yankees had some bullpen work to do,

1916
01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:31,000
Speaker 10: the Phillies have some bullpen work to do as well.

1917
01:42:31,600 --> 01:42:34,240
Speaker 10: But this is a very very interesting time, I think

1918
01:42:34,280 --> 01:42:36,200
Speaker 10: for a lot of different teams in the industry, and

1919
01:42:36,560 --> 01:42:39,200
Speaker 10: I do think it starts with just how open minded

1920
01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:41,400
Speaker 10: the Tigers are to moving their ace. I think we

1921
01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:44,240
Speaker 10: know the White Sox would move their pieces, but I

1922
01:42:44,320 --> 01:42:47,800
Speaker 10: think that the next question comes where the Tigers might

1923
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:48,679
Speaker 10: go with Trek Scugl.

1924
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1925
01:42:49,080 --> 01:42:53,360
Speaker 2: And finally, the Dodgers, a team that anything less than

1926
01:42:53,439 --> 01:42:57,920
Speaker 2: winning the World Series after extending over a billion dollars

1927
01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:02,599
Speaker 2: in new contracts in the offseason, their pitching staff falling apart.

1928
01:43:02,760 --> 01:43:07,960
Speaker 3: Yamamoda on the sixty day IL glass now is on

1929
01:43:08,080 --> 01:43:08,599
Speaker 3: the IL.

1930
01:43:10,160 --> 01:43:13,519
Speaker 2: We reported yesterday Clayton Kersha is expected to return to

1931
01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:16,799
Speaker 2: the mound come Thursday when they take on the Giants.

1932
01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:19,560
Speaker 2: How active do you think the Dodgers are going to

1933
01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:22,160
Speaker 2: be to try to bolster that pitching staff because they

1934
01:43:22,280 --> 01:43:25,840
Speaker 2: certainly cannot end the season like they did last year

1935
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:27,840
Speaker 2: with a starting pitching they got.

1936
01:43:28,120 --> 01:43:31,759
Speaker 3: Blown up by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the playoffs.

1937
01:43:32,640 --> 01:43:36,280
Speaker 10: You're right, and they have a massive task ahead of them.

1938
01:43:36,479 --> 01:43:40,120
Speaker 10: Do the Dodgers to upgrade their rotation? One of my

1939
01:43:40,520 --> 01:43:43,320
Speaker 10: most telling stats in baseball right now and why the

1940
01:43:43,400 --> 01:43:45,479
Speaker 10: Dodgers have to be so aggressive and looking at starting

1941
01:43:45,520 --> 01:43:50,160
Speaker 10: pitching help. They have played fifteen straight post season games

1942
01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:53,439
Speaker 10: in which their starting pitcher did not recording out in

1943
01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:57,440
Speaker 10: the sixth inning. That's an amazing and rather damning statistics

1944
01:43:57,840 --> 01:43:59,680
Speaker 10: about where their depth is right now and what they

1945
01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:03,240
Speaker 10: need to do. I think you also look at other

1946
01:44:03,360 --> 01:44:07,000
Speaker 10: pieces there. James Paxson starts tonight. He is someone who

1947
01:44:07,040 --> 01:44:09,479
Speaker 10: has not necessarily been a two hundred ding type pitcher

1948
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:11,320
Speaker 10: in his career. He's had a lot of injuries. The

1949
01:44:11,360 --> 01:44:13,800
Speaker 10: glass now you mentioned is on the il he's had

1950
01:44:13,840 --> 01:44:17,479
Speaker 10: his injuries, and for all these reasons, it's why whether

1951
01:44:17,560 --> 01:44:21,240
Speaker 10: it's the Blue Jays with Bassett potentially or Goffman or

1952
01:44:21,320 --> 01:44:24,639
Speaker 10: the Tigers with Scuball or Flaherty, or the White Sox

1953
01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:28,200
Speaker 10: Crochet or Fetti. There are so many needs right now

1954
01:44:28,680 --> 01:44:31,439
Speaker 10: for pitching with the Dodgers. It's not just one starter.

1955
01:44:31,560 --> 01:44:34,160
Speaker 10: It's got to be multiple starters. And to your point, Steve,

1956
01:44:34,800 --> 01:44:38,760
Speaker 10: you cannot get to the playoffs look around and say,

1957
01:44:38,800 --> 01:44:41,240
Speaker 10: oh my gosh, we have no pitching, which is exactly

1958
01:44:41,280 --> 01:44:43,680
Speaker 10: where they were the previous year and the year before that.

1959
01:44:44,240 --> 01:44:47,080
Speaker 10: And at some point you have to change your philosophy

1960
01:44:47,600 --> 01:44:49,760
Speaker 10: if it keeps leading you to the same place of

1961
01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:53,760
Speaker 10: not having healthy pitching in the games that matter the most.

1962
01:44:54,240 --> 01:44:54,559
Speaker 3: JP.

1963
01:44:55,439 --> 01:44:58,439
Speaker 2: Glad you were there as usual, always appreciated taking time

1964
01:44:58,479 --> 01:45:00,800
Speaker 2: out from a very busy day coup to be on

1965
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:03,200
Speaker 2: with us, and we will talk to you next.

1966
01:45:03,080 --> 01:45:05,679
Speaker 3: Week as we zero in more on that trade deadline.

1967
01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:08,599
Speaker 10: Looking forward to my friends, thanks for everything you look

1968
01:45:08,600 --> 01:45:10,040
Speaker 10: forward to that next conversation as well.

1969
01:45:10,080 --> 01:45:10,559
Speaker 1: Thanks so much.

1970
01:45:10,640 --> 01:45:14,160
Speaker 2: There is a great John Paul Morosi. They're live from

1971
01:45:14,360 --> 01:45:16,920
Speaker 2: Cooper's Down. All right, let's find out what is trending

1972
01:45:17,080 --> 01:45:20,080
Speaker 2: right now. Moncie, of course, is a Hall of Famer

1973
01:45:20,160 --> 01:45:22,160
Speaker 2: in every respect. First ballot unanimous.

1974
01:45:22,400 --> 01:45:25,600
Speaker 6: I hope so, I hope so why not put that

1975
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:27,800
Speaker 6: in the universe. I would like to make some sort

1976
01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:29,120
Speaker 6: of hall of fame in my life.

1977
01:45:29,240 --> 01:45:33,520
Speaker 7: Whether it's my high school, whether it's you know, college,

1978
01:45:33,880 --> 01:45:34,559
Speaker 7: something some.

1979
01:45:35,439 --> 01:45:37,880
Speaker 2: I made one hall of fame. I'm in one hallway,

1980
01:45:37,880 --> 01:45:40,240
Speaker 2: the Southern California Jewish.

1981
01:45:39,920 --> 01:45:40,760
Speaker 3: Sports Hall of Fame.

1982
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:42,280
Speaker 8: Of course you are, of course you are.

1983
01:45:42,360 --> 01:45:43,960
Speaker 3: I was inducted twenty years ago.

1984
01:45:44,160 --> 01:45:45,920
Speaker 8: And correct me if I'm wrong. Do you have a

1985
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:46,679
Speaker 8: Heisman vote?

1986
01:45:47,200 --> 01:45:47,760
Speaker 1: I do have a.

1987
01:45:47,800 --> 01:45:51,679
Speaker 3: Heisman vote, which is next level?

1988
01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:53,840
Speaker 8: Oh, yes, that is next level. I forgot.

1989
01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:57,200
Speaker 1: I've even never told us how few people can say that,

1990
01:45:57,479 --> 01:45:59,639
Speaker 1: and for this to be the first time you've actually

1991
01:45:59,680 --> 01:46:05,160
Speaker 1: said it, probably it's crazy. I mean that, it's crazy.

1992
01:46:05,920 --> 01:46:06,559
Speaker 1: It's crazy.

1993
01:46:06,720 --> 01:46:09,960
Speaker 6: Well, we're gonna start in baseball Fellas, where the Yankees

1994
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:13,280
Speaker 6: are trying to come back from a three run deficit.

1995
01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:16,400
Speaker 8: They're still alive. Aaron Judge did hit his thirty.

1996
01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:19,080
Speaker 6: Fifth homer of the season, a three run shot, but

1997
01:46:19,160 --> 01:46:22,000
Speaker 6: they are currently losing, still six to four.

1998
01:46:22,200 --> 01:46:25,360
Speaker 8: Right now, Juan Soto just had an RBI double.

1999
01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:27,720
Speaker 6: So it is the bottom of the ninth inning in

2000
01:46:27,920 --> 01:46:30,960
Speaker 6: the Bronx Yankees down by two, but they still have

2001
01:46:31,080 --> 01:46:34,519
Speaker 6: two outs left and Juan Soto is at second base,

2002
01:46:34,560 --> 01:46:37,719
Speaker 6: so they're saying there's a chance. The Burers are beating

2003
01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:39,760
Speaker 6: the Twins seven to five, bottom of the eighth inning

2004
01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:42,120
Speaker 6: in Minnesota. The Twins have the bases loaded and they

2005

01:47:27,640 --> 01:47:30,479

2035
01:48:00,320 --> 01:48:03,040
Speaker 6: on the NASCAR Cup Series that we have happening out

2036
01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:07,360
Speaker 6: of Indianapolis Motor Speedway. They are in the final stage

2037
01:48:07,600 --> 01:48:10,120
Speaker 6: and it looks like Denny Hamlin is currently in the

2038
01:48:10,200 --> 01:48:12,720
Speaker 6: lead after one hundred and five laps.

2039
01:48:12,479 --> 01:48:14,960
Speaker 8: So he still has about fifty five ish laps to go,

2040
01:48:15,080 --> 01:48:17,000
Speaker 8: but Denny Hamlin currently in the lead.

2041
01:48:17,320 --> 01:48:19,960
Speaker 6: Earlier today, Isander Schafflee won the one hundred and fifty

2042
01:48:20,040 --> 01:48:22,080
Speaker 6: second open, ending at nine under par.

2043
01:48:22,240 --> 01:48:22,719
Speaker 8: Overall.

2044
01:48:23,479 --> 01:48:25,600
Speaker 6: Justin Rose and Billy Horswel tied for second place and

2045
01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:28,839
Speaker 6: ended seven under par overall and in the NBA, Celtics

2046
01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:31,439
Speaker 6: forward Sam Hauser has agreed on a four year, forty

2047
01:48:31,479 --> 01:48:35,320
Speaker 6: five million dollar contract extension. This extension puts the Celtics

2048
01:48:35,400 --> 01:48:37,479
Speaker 6: in the twenty twenty five to twenty twenty six payroll

2049
01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:41,160
Speaker 6: to a projected two hundred and twenty five million with

2050
01:48:41,280 --> 01:48:45,280
Speaker 6: an additional two hundred and ten million luxury tax penalty,

2051
01:48:45,800 --> 01:48:48,920
Speaker 6: highest in the league over the second apron for a

2052
01:48:49,160 --> 01:48:52,320
Speaker 6: second consecutive year, that second apron that nobody wants to

2053
01:48:52,360 --> 01:48:52,680
Speaker 6: deal with.

2054
01:48:53,080 --> 01:48:55,240
Speaker 8: Celtics are like whatever, we want to win.

2055
01:48:55,520 --> 01:48:57,960
Speaker 6: And President Joe Biden announced that he has withdrawn from

2056
01:48:57,960 --> 01:48:59,679
Speaker 6: the US presidential race.

2057
01:49:00,280 --> 01:49:02,040
Speaker 8: That's all, Fellas back to you.

2058
01:49:02,439 --> 01:49:04,000
Speaker 3: I love that little footnote at the end.

2059
01:49:06,160 --> 01:49:10,920
Speaker 2: The last time a sitting president voluntarily bailed out was

2060
01:49:11,280 --> 01:49:15,120
Speaker 2: LBJ back in nineteen sixty eight. The difference there was

2061
01:49:15,600 --> 01:49:18,960
Speaker 2: he bailed out before the primaries.

2062
01:49:18,439 --> 01:49:21,439
Speaker 3: Actually really got started. I mean, there had just been one.

2063
01:49:21,680 --> 01:49:25,679
Speaker 2: So this is a completely different case where they've already

2064
01:49:25,720 --> 01:49:29,360
Speaker 2: completed all the primaries, so that's gone, and all the

2065
01:49:29,439 --> 01:49:34,599
Speaker 2: delegates that he won are now released and they could

2066
01:49:34,640 --> 01:49:37,120
Speaker 2: go in any director. I would love to say this,

2067
01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:39,599
Speaker 2: I mean again, I don't have a horse in the race,

2068
01:49:39,640 --> 01:49:42,200
Speaker 2: but I will say this. The idea of an open

2069
01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:46,679
Speaker 2: convention when the Democrats meet in Chicago in August, where

2070
01:49:46,720 --> 01:49:50,280
Speaker 2: it's a free for all, you know, for anyone to

2071
01:49:50,360 --> 01:49:51,320
Speaker 2: become the nominee.

2072
01:49:51,479 --> 01:49:52,439
Speaker 3: That's old school.

2073
01:49:52,640 --> 01:49:55,479
Speaker 2: I mean they used to have conventions way back in

2074
01:49:55,560 --> 01:49:57,840
Speaker 2: the day that would go on for weeks, and they

2075
01:49:57,880 --> 01:50:00,720
Speaker 2: would have ballots and ballots and ballots and alice to

2076
01:50:01,080 --> 01:50:03,920
Speaker 2: ultimately decide who the nominee of that party was going

2077
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:06,160
Speaker 2: to be. So I think you're burying some very important

2078
01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:10,240
Speaker 2: news with this, though, Steve, Nick Castillanos. Of course Homer today,

2079
01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:11,719
Speaker 2: Yes he did, did he really?

2080
01:50:11,960 --> 01:50:13,000
Speaker 1: Yes? Wow?

2081
01:50:13,200 --> 01:50:14,200
Speaker 3: Top of the ninth he.

2082
01:50:14,320 --> 01:50:18,240
Speaker 1: Goes yard and of course he did. Unbelievable consistency from

2083
01:50:18,360 --> 01:50:20,760
Speaker 1: Nick Casi That is insane And I don't know if

2084
01:50:20,800 --> 01:50:26,639
Speaker 1: I'll ever wear this headset again. You know what's amazing

2085
01:50:26,640 --> 01:50:30,800
Speaker 1: about Nick Casianos is I should start clocking this like

2086
01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 1: every time there's a major happening. Yeah, like just I

2087
01:50:35,360 --> 01:50:37,880
Speaker 1: just start putting all your money off people.

2088
01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:41,160
Speaker 2: I saw I follow on Twitter immediately we're putting in

2089
01:50:41,360 --> 01:50:44,439
Speaker 2: bets on like DraftKings on. I think you could get

2090
01:50:44,479 --> 01:50:47,439
Speaker 2: I think it was like plus six point fifty for

2091
01:50:47,920 --> 01:50:51,120
Speaker 2: Nick Castillanos over half a home run.

2092
01:50:51,560 --> 01:50:54,800
Speaker 1: I also have to admit, like, the first thing I

2093
01:50:54,880 --> 01:50:58,719
Speaker 1: thought of when I saw that President Biden officially endorsed

2094
01:50:58,760 --> 01:51:02,640
Speaker 1: his VP Kama Harris. I kept thinking about, like this

2095
01:51:02,880 --> 01:51:05,280
Speaker 1: is that oh my god, where's my helmet moment for

2096
01:51:05,360 --> 01:51:08,320
Speaker 1: a backup quarterback? Yeah, you know, like you know, it's

2097
01:51:08,360 --> 01:51:10,760
Speaker 1: like you're sitting on the sideline. Yeah, you just you

2098
01:51:10,880 --> 01:51:13,720
Speaker 1: got the headset on, You're looking at the clipboard, you're

2099
01:51:13,760 --> 01:51:15,759
Speaker 1: chewing some flower seeds, and then all of a sudden,

2100
01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:19,320
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow goes down and you're like, oh my gosh,

2101
01:51:19,600 --> 01:51:20,280
Speaker 1: I'm in the game.

2102
01:51:20,560 --> 01:51:24,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, unfortunately or for to, I mean, he can

2103
01:51:24,840 --> 01:51:27,920
Speaker 2: endorse her, but that doesn't make her the nominee.

2104
01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:31,920
Speaker 1: It is wide open now. The Cleveland Browns, I mean

2105
01:51:32,200 --> 01:51:35,240
Speaker 1: they went through six quarterback. Joe Flacco got called off

2106
01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:39,360
Speaker 1: of this recliner. So it's very possible that the potential

2107
01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:42,960
Speaker 1: Democratic candidate could be on a recliner somewhere like Joe

2108
01:51:43,040 --> 01:51:44,799
Speaker 1: Flacco was for the Cleveland Browns.

2109
01:51:44,840 --> 01:51:46,400

Speaker 3: my daughter is named Paris, and it's not because of Paris, Hilton.

2147
01:53:50,840 --> 01:53:54,720

2148
01:53:55,720 --> 01:54:01,960
Speaker 3: Holocaust survivor, and her mother, my grandmother, after escaping from Hungary,

2149

Speaker 2: Quite an odyssey to say the least. Wow, but that's

2153
01:54:14,439 --> 01:54:17,400
Speaker 2: where the origins of my daughter's named Paris. It's very

2154
01:54:17,479 --> 01:54:20,360
Speaker 2: near and dear to me, and it's a beautiful city.

2159
01:54:31,800 --> 01:54:35,080
Speaker 1: you named her. But we were supposed to go in

2160
01:54:35,240 --> 01:54:39,480
Speaker 1: February of twenty twelve. And literally the only thing that

2161
01:54:39,600 --> 01:54:42,440
Speaker 1: would have canceled that trip because it was going to be,

2162
01:54:42,880 --> 01:54:45,840
Speaker 1: you know, visit Rome, Visit Paris, visit you know, all

2163
01:54:45,920 --> 01:54:50,120
Speaker 1: these beautiful destinations around Europe. Was if my team, I

2164
01:54:50,280 --> 01:54:52,040
Speaker 1: was on the Patriots at the time, if my team

2165
01:54:52,080 --> 01:54:54,960
Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl and instead of going to Paris,

2166
01:54:55,160 --> 01:54:56,720
Speaker 1: we went to Indianapolis.

2167
01:54:57,440 --> 01:54:59,960
Speaker 2: I mean, I love Indy, by the way, so I'm

2168
01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:02,920
Speaker 2: not gonna say anything negative about Indianapolis. I'd been there

2169
01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:05,480
Speaker 2: for five Final Fours and of course your super Bowl,

2170
01:55:05,960 --> 01:55:06,960
Speaker 2: so I was in India.

2171
01:55:06,960 --> 01:55:10,720
Speaker 3: There no Paris Is. You know, you've seen so many

2172
01:55:10,920 --> 01:55:11,960
Speaker 3: thing about going to Paris.

2173
01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:14,760
Speaker 2: As you've seen the pictures of Paris, you know, whether

2174
01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,960
Speaker 2: it's the Eiffel Tower or the Aucta Triomph, you know,

2175
01:55:18,160 --> 01:55:21,320
Speaker 2: Notre Dame, I mean the shaunz I mean, you've seen Paris.

2176
01:55:21,400 --> 01:55:23,360
Speaker 2: Then when you get there, it doesn't even seem real

2177
01:55:23,480 --> 01:55:26,560
Speaker 2: because you've seen it so many times. But it's going

2178
01:55:26,640 --> 01:55:28,440
Speaker 2: to be a great setting for the Olympics. One hundred

2179
01:55:28,480 --> 01:55:30,720
Speaker 2: years ago this Summer Games were in Paris. A lot

2180
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:31,640
Speaker 2: of history there.

2181
01:55:32,840 --> 01:55:35,560
Speaker 3: You know. Like I said, I'm just an old school

2182
01:55:37,600 --> 01:55:38,480
Speaker 3: Olympics person.

2183
01:55:38,920 --> 01:55:41,600
Speaker 2: I mean, to me, and with all due respect to

2184
01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:44,800
Speaker 2: gymnastics in this comeback of Simone Biles is gonna be

2185
01:55:44,800 --> 01:55:47,400
Speaker 2: a big story for these Summer Games. I'm looking forward

2186
01:55:47,400 --> 01:55:49,880
Speaker 2: to seeing her, you know, back on top of her game.

2187
01:55:50,320 --> 01:55:53,120
Speaker 2: But to me, it used to be swimming dominates the

2188
01:55:53,200 --> 01:55:55,600
Speaker 2: first week and then track and fields the second week,

2189
01:55:56,240 --> 01:55:56,680
Speaker 2: and that's it.

2190
01:55:56,840 --> 01:55:59,120
Speaker 3: I mean, those were like the main sports. I mean

2191
01:55:59,200 --> 01:55:59,960
Speaker 3: I was old enough.

2192
01:56:00,040 --> 01:56:03,000
Speaker 2: Remember when Mark Spitz not only won seven gold medals,

2193
01:56:03,080 --> 01:56:04,800
Speaker 2: he sets seven world records.

2194
01:56:05,120 --> 01:56:06,120
Speaker 3: I mean it was crazy.

2195
01:56:07,240 --> 01:56:09,800
Speaker 2: And then of course when we talk about track and field,

2196
01:56:11,440 --> 01:56:13,440
Speaker 2: I mean, you can make an argument these are the

2197
01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:16,920
Speaker 2: greatest athletes on the planet. They can run, the fastest, jump,

2198
01:56:16,960 --> 01:56:20,720
Speaker 2: the highest you know, the strength the decathlon, maybe the

2199
01:56:20,800 --> 01:56:22,560
Speaker 2: greatest all around athlete.

2200
01:56:22,200 --> 01:56:22,680
Speaker 1: In the world.

2201
01:56:23,440 --> 01:56:25,200
Speaker 3: That to me is sort of like the pure sports,

2202
01:56:25,240 --> 01:56:27,880
Speaker 3: getting back to the original origins of what the Olympic

2203
01:56:27,960 --> 01:56:29,200
Speaker 3: Games were meant to be.

2204
01:56:30,000 --> 01:56:35,160
Speaker 1: It's it really is one of those I guess moments.

2205
01:56:35,320 --> 01:56:39,240
Speaker 1: I guess that's a way to sort of bring it

2206
01:56:39,360 --> 01:56:41,960
Speaker 1: down to a level. It's a moment where it really

2207
01:56:42,040 --> 01:56:44,040
Speaker 1: does feel like the whole world is checking in on

2208
01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:46,040
Speaker 1: the same thing at the same time. Oh yes, like

2209
01:56:46,640 --> 01:56:50,000
Speaker 1: we have our news cycle, we have our news I

2210
01:56:50,040 --> 01:56:53,360
Speaker 1: don't know, whatever pundits that we listen to, or we

2211
01:56:53,600 --> 01:56:56,880
Speaker 1: stream whatever podcast we got our news from, or whatever

2212
01:56:57,080 --> 01:56:59,640
Speaker 1: stations or networks we get our news from. But we

2213
01:56:59,720 --> 01:57:02,880
Speaker 1: don't often check in on the global news and something

2214
01:57:03,120 --> 01:57:06,440
Speaker 1: unless something catastrophic is going on. And there are very

2215
01:57:06,480 --> 01:57:09,920
Speaker 1: few times, outside of maybe the World Cup, where it

2216
01:57:10,000 --> 01:57:13,000
Speaker 1: feels like there's a lot of people around the entire

2217
01:57:13,080 --> 01:57:15,480
Speaker 1: world checking on the same thing at the same time,

2218
01:57:15,720 --> 01:57:17,800
Speaker 1: and the Olympics absolutely are one of them, which is

2219
01:57:17,880 --> 01:57:21,120
Speaker 1: a's a cool feeling when when you know whether it's

2220
01:57:21,120 --> 01:57:27,080
Speaker 1: a Michael Phelps or it's another potential world records setter

2221
01:57:27,920 --> 01:57:32,720
Speaker 1: or or Olympic record setter who we have some preamble

2222
01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:36,000
Speaker 1: toward what they're about to accomplish, it feels like you're

2223
01:57:36,040 --> 01:57:38,560
Speaker 1: doing the same thing everyone around the world is doing

2224
01:57:38,640 --> 01:57:41,520
Speaker 1: at the same time, and that's that's unique. It's a

2225
01:57:41,640 --> 01:57:45,080
Speaker 1: unique experience that it feels like only really a couple

2226
01:57:45,160 --> 01:57:47,600
Speaker 1: of events can do in a positive way, and the

2227
01:57:47,680 --> 01:57:49,160
Speaker 1: Olympics are absolutely one of them.

2228
01:57:50,280 --> 01:57:53,720
Speaker 2: And when they play our anthem when an American athlete

2229
01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:57,520
Speaker 2: wins a gold medal, I still get the chills. I'm sorry,

2230
01:57:57,640 --> 01:57:59,600
Speaker 2: I still get the chills. And and you know, it's

2231
01:57:59,600 --> 01:58:03,800
Speaker 2: always it varies from athlete to athlete just how emotional

2232
01:58:03,920 --> 01:58:04,200
Speaker 2: it is.

2233
01:58:04,720 --> 01:58:06,080
Speaker 3: You know, some athletes they get.

2234
01:58:06,040 --> 01:58:09,760
Speaker 2: Up there and they go through the ceremony, you know,

2235
01:58:10,040 --> 01:58:14,000
Speaker 2: it's just another ceremony, and then others get very emotional

2236
01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:16,440
Speaker 2: about it. But you know, and by the way, Olympic

2237
01:58:16,520 --> 01:58:18,600
Speaker 2: coverage over the years, and of course I grew up

2238
01:58:18,640 --> 01:58:21,760
Speaker 2: when ABC was doing the Olympics way back in the day.

2239
01:58:21,840 --> 01:58:24,600
Speaker 3: Jim McKay as you know, was the big host back

2240
01:58:24,640 --> 01:58:27,120
Speaker 3: in those days. But for the many years Bob Costas

2241
01:58:27,200 --> 01:58:28,960
Speaker 3: I've been for many many years with NBC.

2242
01:58:30,560 --> 01:58:34,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I just I get into it. I

2243
01:58:34,480 --> 01:58:37,960
Speaker 2: say to myself, how interested am I really? But once

2244
01:58:38,040 --> 01:58:39,680
Speaker 2: they begin, I sort of get into it.

2245
01:58:40,200 --> 01:58:42,960
Speaker 1: It's hard not to. And there always feels like an

2246
01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:48,080
Speaker 1: important American storyline that you have to follow. And maybe

2247
01:58:48,120 --> 01:58:50,320
Speaker 1: it's even one that you were unaware of until the

2248
01:58:50,400 --> 01:58:55,080
Speaker 1: Olympics started, until other people, other sports outlets, other broadcasters

2249
01:58:55,360 --> 01:58:58,320
Speaker 1: start picking up on, or there's an article written about it,

2250
01:58:58,400 --> 01:59:02,880
Speaker 1: whatever it may be. I actually know a Olympian who

2251
01:59:02,960 --> 01:59:05,680
Speaker 1: will be competing at the Paris Games in beach Volleyball's

2252
01:59:05,760 --> 01:59:09,200
Speaker 1: names Chase Budinger. Yes, he's married.

2253
01:59:08,920 --> 01:59:11,520
Speaker 3: To former NBA player now beach volleyball.

2254
01:59:12,440 --> 01:59:15,720
Speaker 1: He played volleyball in high school Cholls basketball chose well.

2255
01:59:15,880 --> 01:59:17,760
Speaker 3: We actually did a feature on him last night on

2256
01:59:17,840 --> 01:59:18,160
Speaker 3: the news.

2257
01:59:18,360 --> 01:59:21,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he had an amazing career at Arizona before bouncing

2258
01:59:22,000 --> 01:59:25,480
Speaker 1: around the NBA for many many years, could have retired

2259
01:59:25,520 --> 01:59:29,760
Speaker 1: from sports altogether, fell back in love with volleyball. I

2260
01:59:29,840 --> 01:59:33,000
Speaker 1: attended his wedding with his beautiful wife, who's a longtime

2261
01:59:33,160 --> 01:59:36,800
Speaker 1: friend and former volleyball teammate of my wife growing up.

2262
01:59:36,880 --> 01:59:40,680
Speaker 1: And he will be as she will in Paris, competing

2263
01:59:40,760 --> 01:59:44,200
Speaker 1: for the United States. And really really excited for him.

2264
01:59:44,520 --> 01:59:47,240
Speaker 1: And so yeah, like there's all these little storylines you

2265
01:59:47,320 --> 01:59:49,800
Speaker 1: can follow. But that's a great one if you haven't

2266
01:59:49,800 --> 01:59:50,480
Speaker 1: found one yet.

2267
01:59:50,680 --> 01:59:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, by the way, great beaches in Paris for their beaches.

2268
01:59:59,560 --> 02:00:01,880
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's exciting because four years from now

2269
02:00:02,040 --> 02:00:06,320
Speaker 2: the Olympics are returning to Los Angeles, and uh, you know,

2270
02:00:07,200 --> 02:00:09,560
Speaker 2: if you've never attended an Olympic event, I guess it

02:00:09,560 --> 02:00:11,879
Speaker 2: would be you know, Chris has been too many Olympics,
