Speaker 2: Whitey Ford and Yogi Berra. And he asked, Tim Russard asked,

00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: Whitey Ford, could you please tell me your favorite Yogi

18
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: back back in the like nineteen fifty nine. I'm pitching

19
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,320

Speaker 2: the plate. White, He says, he breaks off a curve ball,

25
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 2: hits Al Smith right in the knee. Three pitches, three hitters,

26
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 2: bases loaded, nobody out. Up comes the great Ted Klzuski

27

00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 2: whitey Ford looks back at Yogi, says, Yogi, what the

32
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 2: hell's going on out here? Does? Why do you have

33
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: anything tonight? Jogi says, how the heck do I know?

34
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: I haven't caught a single pitch yet. Did you notice

35
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: the new rule last night, the kickoff rule? Yeah, the

36
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: critics are out in full force, and I get it.

37
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 2: Hit out, I get it. First night had all the

38
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: excitement of a Dan the Man Levitan concert. Look, can

39
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: we please pump the brakes for just a second, just

40
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: a second. I mean, first of all, the game was

41
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 2: played last night largely by good fellas that are all

42
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: going to be working at NAPA Auto Parts next month.

43
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with that, good Christian work, good Christian values.

44
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 2: Just saying most of those guys weren't even in NFL players.

45
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 2: There were eight kickoffs, though in three and a half

46
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: quarters seven were returned. Okay, we can work with this.

47
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 2: Yeah it looked weird, but did you know last year

48
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three, only twenty two percent of all

49
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 2: kickoffs were returned perc sent a kickoffs for touchbacks? Do

50
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 2: you want that? By the way, don't ever underestimate special teams.

51
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 2: They're an incredibly important part of football on every level,

52
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 2: including high school. You want to make your bones, you

53
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 2: want to oppress a coach doing on special teams. As

54
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 2: Terrell Davis, he was about to get cut by the

55
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: Denver Broncos in Japan. He calls an airline and says,

56
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 2: get me out of here. I didn't want to go

57
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 2: to the game to night, couldn't get a flight that night.

58
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 2: They put him in on special teams. He blew somebody up.

59
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: Next to the rest is history. Ryan Clark, same deal,

60
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: But we're not going to go down that road. I'll

61
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 2: tell you the road we are going to go down,

62
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 2: at least trying to understand what the hell the NFL

63
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: is trying to do, because it's not a bad thing.

64
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: It's a good thing. There were only four kickoffs the

65
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 2: entire season in twenty twenty three returned for touchdowns. You

66
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 2: want that excitement back. So the owners voted this last

67
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: spring to overhaul the kickoff review. They kickoff play. They

68
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 2: want to revive it. It had little to no action

69
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: last season. Like I said, seventy eight percent were touchbacks.

70
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: So the new rules got their first chance to be

71
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 2: used Thursday night between the Bears and Texans. First of all,

72
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: real quickly, and this is only a one year trial,

73
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: so we'll see if they keep it. I'm gonna bet

74
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 2: they are, because when this gets going and coordinators and

75
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 2: special teams coaches figure out how to make this thing work, yeah,

76
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: I think it could be something. But let's give it

77
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: a chance.

78
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 3: You know.

79
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: They also want to kind of limit the high speed collisions.

80
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: And remember the NFL was sued for a billion dollars

81
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 2: the concussion thing, right, you get it. You read about

82
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 2: it in all the papers. But here's the deal. Here's

83
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 2: how it's gonna look standard kicks. Well, they're still gonna

84
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: begin from the thirty five yard line, But did you

85
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 2: notice everything look weird because the ten kick coverage players

86
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: were lined up twenty five yards down the field on

87
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: the opposing team's forty uh huh. Now, the return team

88
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: will also have nine blockers lined up at what they

89
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 2: call the setup zone between the thirty and thirty five

90
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 2: yard line, but at least seven of those players have

91
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 2: to touch the thirty the thirty five yard line. Up

92
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 2: to two returners will be allowed inside the twenty, so

93
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: only the kicker and the two returners are allowed to

94
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 2: move until the ball hits the ground or is field

95
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 2: that are touched by a returner inside the twenty. Now,

96
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 2: any kick that reaches the end zone in the air,

97
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: you can return it, or the receiving team cannot for

98
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,720
Speaker 2: a touchback, And now they get positioned on the thirty

99
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 2: yard line. Pretty good field position all right. By the way,

100
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 2: any kick that reaches the end zone goes out of

101
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 2: bounds or out of the end zone is also a touchback.

102
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: It goes to the thirty yard line. Now, why did

103
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: the NFL make this change? Let's face, the kickoff returns

104
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 2: have basically become obsolete. There have been a series of

105
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 2: real changes that have made them safer over the past

106
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 2: several seasons, but last season was a new Oh if

107
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 2: you want to be if you want to get granular.

108
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: Only twenty one point eight percent of all kicks were

109
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: returned last season because all too often teams would say,

110
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: let's forego the risk of a possible return, let's take

111
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 2: some field position and have a nice day. So to

112
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: give you some perspective, just the year before, thirty eight

113
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: percent of the kicks had been returned, But fifteen years

114
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: ago eighty percent of all kicks were returned in the NFL,

115
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 2: and the NFL estimates they believe they'll get that number

116
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 2: back above fifty percent this year. Again, the changes were

117
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 2: put in play because kickoffs were considered the most dangerous

118
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: plays all the high speed collisions they were. Probably most

119
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 2: of those plays contributed to more concussions than anything else.

120
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 2: So the hope is the new rule will increase the

121
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 2: number of returns, but with not as much danger. The

122
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 2: reason everybody was nonplussed about what happened last night is

123
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 2: because special teams coaches they haven't begun to start to

124
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: figure this out. Yet you got coverage players that can't

125
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: move until the ball hits the ground or returner in

126
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: the landing zone. Hang time is really no longer a

127
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 2: key factor in kicks. As a matter of fact, I

128
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 2: gotta tell you, I gotta tell you. We've all seen

129
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: the potential flaw with everybody lined up in a nice

130
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: row like you're playing duck duck goose or something. If

131
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 2: you bust that gap and you're you find an opening,

132
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 2: you might be off to the races. I'm gonna throw

133
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: a curveball here. How's that for making a metaphor Hell,

134
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: instead of having your kicker do kickoffs, why not just

135
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 2: have a defensive back kickoff. Some of those guys probably

136
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 2: kicked in high school. They did everything kick punt, you know, offense, defense, return, team,

137
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 2: punt team, kickoff, team kickoff or did it never came

138
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 2: off the field that way. If you have a situation

139
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: where a speedy returner breaks that wall instead of a

140
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 2: kicker back there looking kind of silly like garrya Premian

141
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 2: google it, knuckleheads, Uh, you got a chance, So look

142
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: for the returns. It's gonna look a little bit more

143
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: like a traditional running player. Than the old kickoff return.

144
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: So I think you might even see more running backs

145
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 2: as returners. Why you capitalize it on their ability to

146
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 2: find a hole and with their vision and so you know,

147
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 2: by the way, the new rules also eliminate the possibility

148
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: of surprise on side kicks like the one that Drew

149
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: Brees and New Orleans stole back in Super Bowl forty four.

150
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 2: So is it perfect?

151
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 4: No?

152
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 2: Was it exciting Thursday night? Far from it. But I

153
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 2: say we gave it a chance. I say we gave

154
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: it a chance. I think as the season goes on,

155
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 2: you might wear them up to it. And I think

156
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 2: again you'll see more kick returns. And again, most of

157
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 2: those guys playing last night are going to be on

158
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 2: the roster in a month. So give, give the special teams, coordinators,

159
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 2: give the teams, give people a chance to study this.

160
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 2: But we don't want to kick off going away ever,

161
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:55,839
Speaker 2: all right, And I know the NFL doesn't want to

162
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: get sued for a billion dollars again, so they're trying

163
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 2: to find the best of both worlds. So that is

164
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 2: my biggest takeaway from Thursday Night in the Hall of

165
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 2: Fame game. By the way, congrats, easy for me to

166
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: say try that again in English. Last time I run

167
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: a tongue from that place. Congrats to Liz l from

00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 2: appreciate you staying up late, buddy.

217
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 7: My pleasure. I mean, it's football season. You can't sleep.

218
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 7: We got to start getting our body clocks ready to

219
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 7: go so we can rent up and do these long

220
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 7: days and get ready for twenty four to seven football.

221
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 2: And I'm pretty sure you haven't slept since September of

222
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, the month before the Golden Knights took Yes,

223
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 2: that's a story for a different day, Kevin. I want

224
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 2: to just start with this ever so quickly, tongue in cheek,

225
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 2: do you suppose the Raiders at Allegiance Stadium this year

226
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 2: might sell Kermit the Frog with Kansas City Chief logans.

227
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on that whole little ordeal that it took

228
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 2: root they were throwing some shaded Patrick Mahomes.

229
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 7: You know that, as usual with social media, got maybe

230
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 7: taken out of context and got a little out of hand.

231
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 7: It was it was a fan that was there that

232
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 7: handed it to the rookie player who didn't know exactly

233
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 7: what to do with it. So, you know, a lot

234
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 7: of it in portrayed in the media said that the

235
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 7: Raiders had it there on site and was passed when

236
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 7: they were passing it around. That's that's not true. But

237
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 7: you know, if it adds a little bit more juice

238
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 7: to the rivalry, that's fine. I mean, you know, the

239
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 7: Chiefs or you know, the champs, and so the Raiders

240
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 7: have got to knock them off if they're going to

241
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 7: take the next step in winning the division. And you know,

242
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 7: I just kind of saw that as a side story

243
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 7: more than anything else that kind of got.

244
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 8: Out of control.

245
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: Sure, sure, so though, you know, for the people that

246
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 2: were upset about that with the Chiefs, then they weren't

247
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: upset when they did the ring around the rosie inside

248
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 2: the Allegiance states that's right, that's fair.

249
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 7: You can't have it bull play.

250
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 2: That's fair hashtag facts, and let's if I'm being also fair.

251
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: I got to tell you the Raiders went into Giha

252
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 2: Stadium or whatever the heck they called these days on

253
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 2: Christmas Day and they pushed the Chiefs around. That defense

254
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: was for real that day. So this is shaping up

255
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: to be go ahead, you want to say, Tim, I.

256
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 7: Know the Chiefs kind of said that that was kind

257
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 7: of the thing that kind of got Abound track to

258
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 7: go win the Super Bowl?

259
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 9: Was that?

260
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

261
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 7: That did because the Raiders did push them around. But

262
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 7: I think it's going to add a little more juice

263
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 7: to it to what we're going to see this year.

264
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,560
Speaker 7: And another quote unquote holiday type game, because the Raiders

265
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 7: are in Kansas City for the Black Friday Game this year.

266
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 2: They are talking with Kevin Bolander, Fox five sports director

267
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas on the TV side. Kevin so

268
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 2: shaping up to be interesting ANFC West. I don't want

269
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 2: to go into the Chargers situation or the Broncos situation,

270
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 2: but Antonio A. Pears took over last year and there

271
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 2: was a decided bounce in the Raiders step, particularly on

272
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 2: the defense. Do you believe that carries over this year?

273
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 7: I think it does, especially with the defensive side of

274
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 7: the ball. I mean, this is Patrick Graham's third year

275
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 7: leaving this defense, and the back half of the year,

276
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 7: obviously they were one of the better defenses in the NFL,

277
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 7: and and if anything, they got a little bit better

278
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 7: adding Christian Wilkins on the line. So I think defensively

279
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 7: is not where the Raiders have issues. But I also

280
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 7: think that when you talked about a little more bounce

281
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 7: and energy when Antonio Peirce was named the interim head coach,

282
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 7: the whole vibe of the team was a complete one

283
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 7: to eighty over what it was with Josh McDaniels. And

284
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 7: we're seeing that carry over into training camp this year.

285
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 7: This is an energized group of players that have a

286
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 7: little bojo and swagger. Now can that carry itself through

287
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 7: seventeen games Steason with the ups and downs of the

288
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 7: roller coaster that inevitably is going to happen. That remains

289
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 7: to be seen. But certainly the team's having a little

290
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 7: bit of fun out here, just like they were at

291
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 7: the end of last season.

292
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 2: You know, that's a good point. Interestingly enough, depending on

293
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 2: folks and their viewpoints, the betting markets here in Las Vegas.

294
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 2: The sportsbooks have listed the Raiders win total over under

295
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: at six and a half. I got to believe a

296
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 2: lot of people have taken umbrage with that. That means

297
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 2: they're expected to be an under five hundred team. Again,

298
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 2: does that kind of information circulate amongst the Raiders at all?

299
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 7: You know, they pay attention to everything. You know. They

300
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 7: may say they don't, but they know the numbers. They

301
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 7: actually some of the players have talked about the fact

302
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 7: that they were, you know, picked to have seven or

303
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 7: eight wins by certain publications. They didn't exactly say the

304
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 7: sports books, if you will. They were talking more on

305
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 7: some of the national publications, and they were outspoken about

306
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 7: their dislike for that, and Antonio Pearce said that he

307
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 7: was fine with his players being outspoken about that as well.

308
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 7: But they also said after that they weren't happy that

309
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 7: the only way they're going to change the narrative is

310
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 7: to go out there and win. So they do realize

311
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 7: that you have to earn it on the field, and

312
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 7: this team quite honestly has it done. So They've only

313
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 7: been of the playoffs a couple of times I'm here

314
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 7: in the last two decades, so they've got to win

315
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 7: and win consistently if they want to change that narrative

316
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,719
Speaker 7: and the six and a half win total. I mean,

317
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 7: right now, they still don't know who their starting quarterback

318
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 7: is going to be. So until they kind of get

319
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 7: a feel for where this team is headed offensively, I

320
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,199
Speaker 7: think that you know they're going to have to just

321
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 7: live with that and then again go out on the

322
00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 7: field and prove them wrong if if they think that

323
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 7: that number is not right.

324
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 2: That's an excellent segue because you've got a nice little

325
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 2: quarterback competition in camp. I understand both Gardner Minshew and

326
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 2: Aidan O'Connell are splitting raps about fifty to fifty. But

327
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,120
Speaker 2: Gardner might have taken a slight lead. And I heard

328
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 2: he hit Brock Bollowers and stride the other day across

329
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 2: the middle of the stud tight end out of Georgia.

330
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: That got some people excited. Your thoughts, Well, here's.

331
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 7: The thing that's happened so far in this training camp.

332
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 7: Gardner Minshew will have a good day, which she did

333
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 7: on Wednesday. The team didn't practice on Thursday. Aidan O'Connell

334
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 7: have the better day today. They kind of seem to

335
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 7: be alternating and nobody is stacking day, So nobody's separating

336
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 7: themselves in the competition, and that's something that certainly Antonio

337
00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 7: Pierce would like to see happened with somebody that can

338
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 7: do that. And they're really two different types of quarterbacks.

339
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 7: They know Cowns a little more of a traditional pocket

340
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 7: type guy Gardner Minshew's somebody who maybe is a little

341
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 7: more comfortable when he has to leave the pocket and

342
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 7: uses legs. So it'll be interesting to see as they

343
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 7: play out. For fans who like to see potential starters

344
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 7: play preseason football, we don't see that a lot in

345
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 7: the NFL anymore. You're going to see that with the

346
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 7: Raiders this year because not only are they going to

347
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 7: have to play both quarterbacks to get a feel for

348
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 7: who's going to be QB one, but they're going to

349
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 7: make sure that they play starters around them for two reasons. One,

350
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 7: they want to get them comfortable with who are their

351
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 7: starters are going to be on the field, and b

352
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 7: they want to protect their starting quarterback. They're not going

353
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,879
Speaker 7: to throw a third string offensive line out there, you know,

354
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 7: with going up against guys that are trying to make

355
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,399
Speaker 7: a team maybe in a roster and think it'd be

356
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 7: a little more gung ho. So the Raiders plan on

357
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 7: playing their starters a little bit in the preseason, and

358
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 7: that's something that they have not done a lot of

359
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 7: in the last ten years.

360
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 2: You know, I am wondering if at the end of

361
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: the day, Antonio Pierce ops for the veteran because if

362
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,120
Speaker 2: you look at the first nine weeks of the schedule, Kevin,

363
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,360
Speaker 2: it's a little daunting. You open up at the Chargers

364
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: a divisional game right out of the slate, and then

365
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 2: you go to Baltimore. But in those first nine weeks,

366
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 2: you've got to travel to Cincinnati, the Rams, You've got

367
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh and the Chiefs at home. It feels like a

368
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 2: veteran would be more able to navigate that because he's

369
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 2: been there before. But regarding that schedule, is it something

370
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 2: you've taken a look at and noticed how daunting those

371
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 2: first nine weeks are?

372
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I think that you know, when you

373
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 7: play in the ANFC West and you're going to see

374
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 7: the Chiefs two times a year, that's always gonna kind

375
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,639
Speaker 7: of be your cornerstone, right and then uh, but they

376
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 7: have they do have a tough schedule and there's some

377
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 7: gaps and there's every team has a tough schedule and

378
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 7: there's gonna be some gaps that maybe some easier spots

379
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 7: where he could try and strings screen together some wins

380
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 7: and some some spots where they're going to have to

381
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,919
Speaker 7: get things done. As to who they go with with

382
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 7: the quarterback, it'll be interesting to see because they do

383
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 7: open in LA against the Chargers and Jim Harbaugh's first

384
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 7: game with the Chargers, but Aidan O'Connell's first ever NFL

385
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 7: start was at SOFI Stadium against the Chargers. You've kind

386
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 7: of thrown into the fire. I believe it was Week

387
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 7: four last year. Khalil Mack had six sacks in that game,

388
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 7: uh and Abe O'Connell said that he learned a lot

389
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 7: in terms of holding on to the ball uh too

390
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 7: long and things like that. That heat had benefited him

391
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 7: when he got back into the starting role later in

392
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 7: the season. So well, it'll be a storyline either way.

393
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 7: It's either going to be redemption for Aidan O'Connell against

394
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 7: the Chargers at SOFI or we're going to see Gardner

395
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 7: Minshew uh get to start with his fourth NFL seeing

396
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 7: the Raiders.

397
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 2: Last question for me, Kevin, You're right around the corner

398
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: from Chargers camp there as well. I'm not overreacting to

399
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 2: the foot situation that that you know, Harball is going

400
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 2: to be dealing with with this quarterback. Do you expect

401
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 2: him to start Week one? To the best of your knowledge, I.

402
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 7: Would anticipate that he'll be ready to roll. You know,

403
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 7: I don't know how serious an injury is, obviously, I

404
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 7: don't think anybody does. What's your inside that room. But

405
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 7: the way that the the injury happened at, you know,

406
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 7: end of July, first part of August. Here, the way

407
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 7: they do the schedule where there's a long gap before

408
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 7: that first regular season game from the last preseason game.

409
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 7: If the doctors that I've been reading that everybody else

410
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 7: has to stay in the four to six weeks, that

411
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 7: should put him in line to do it. But at

412
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 7: the same time, the Chargers also want to make sure

413
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 7: that this is an issue that doesn't linger. They want

414
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 7: to make sure that they haven't for the long haul,

415
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 7: and I don't think that they're going to want to

416
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 7: rush them back as well. So it's going to be

417
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,959
Speaker 7: an interesting thing leading up into Week one. It's happened

418
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,919
Speaker 7: with the Raiders Chargers game before whether they didn't know

419
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 7: who they were going to get me, they would end

420
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 7: up you know, they ended up getting stick in the past.

421
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 7: So it's going to be the big storyline as we

422
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 7: go into week one.

423
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 2: Great stuff, Ken, Yeah'm in agreement. I would be very

424
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 2: surprised if Justin Herbert isn't under center week one. But

425
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 2: it's a long season and the plan of fasciatus is

426
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 2: a is a weight buring injury. So Kevin appreciates you

427
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: as always. Man. We'll catch up down the road, and

428
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: thanks for all your help. You're the best. Purry, thank you,

429
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. That is Kevin Bowling, your Fox five

432
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,719
Speaker 2: a lot together un b basketball games, and now the

433
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 2: city's grown so much. He's grown way beyond that. All right.

434
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: So the Olympics are having baffo ratings, and obviously there's

435
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 2: a lot of excitement, but there's also noteworthy stories, and

436
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 2: one particular one took place in boxing earlier this week,

437
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,479
Speaker 2: and this is something you simply can't ignore. We'll get

438
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 2: to that in just a second, but first let's go

439
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: to our guy Kevin Figures.

440
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 10: With the latest all Right, Bernie and Friday Night in

441
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 10: Major League Baseball, Blake Snell of the Giants threw a

442
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 10: no hitter in a three to nothing victory over the

443
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 10: Reds in Cincinnati. The reigning Cy Young Winner struck out

444
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 10: eleven and walk three batters. It was the first complete

445
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 10: game of his career. Elsewhere, Seattle hit four home runs,

446
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 10: including a grand slam from a New Marin or Justin Turner,

447
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,920
Speaker 10: as they steamrolled Philadelphia ten to two, five straight losses

448
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 10: there for the Phillies.

449
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: The Dodgers have lost five of their last six.

450
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 10: Their late comeback attempt failed in Oakland, six to five

451
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 10: was the final there in favor of the A's Pete Alonzo,

452
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 10: a home run for the Mets. They defeated the Angels

453
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,879
Speaker 10: five to one. It was the Blue Jays eight in

454
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 10: the Yankees five. Minnesota handed the White Sox their eighteenth

455
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 10: consecutive loss. The Royals won their fifth in a row

456
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 10: with a victory over the Tigers, who have lost five

457
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 10: straight wins. For Cleveland, Arizona and the Cubs in Paris

458
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 10: at the Olympics, coming up at the top of the hour,

459
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 10: you have the third round of men's golf American Xander

460
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 10: Shawfley currently in a three way tie for first with

461
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 10: Tommy Fleetwood of England and Dadeki Matsuyama of Japan.

462
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,399
Speaker 1: Back to Bernie Friedam.

463
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 2: Will you be covering any of the obscure Olympic sports tonight,

464
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 2: Kevin like you did last week. I really enjoyed that.

465
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: Well, you know it's very possible.

466
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 10: You know, we have dressage from the Equestria coming up

467
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 10: here in about an hour and a half or so,

468
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 10: so I mean that really gets me going, Bernie, so

469
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 10: you never know.

470
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've gotten my hope soth that you'll give us

471
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,400
Speaker 2: an update on the Australian rules femal full contact duc

472
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 2: dot goose, that Willie Logart is looking to get a

473
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 2: gold medal and I'm really rooting for him.

474
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, as am I, as am I. We'll have to

475
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 1: see what happened there.

476
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 2: I know you're an intrepid reporter, so you'll have the

477
00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 2: latest on all that good stuff. Kevin, bud Ah, you

478
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 2: can't have missed this. An Olympic boxer quit forty seconds

479
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 2: into a fight two days ago. It wasn't the broken nose,

480
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 2: it was a mid gender controversy. The lady's name was

481
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 2: Angela Karini. She was an Italian boxer. She stepped into

482
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 2: the ring at the Summer Olympics on Thursday against an

483
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 2: opponent who actually had been banned from another international competition

484
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 2: due to gender eligibility issues, and Karini said no moss,

485
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 2: no mops forty six seconds into the fight. Now, look,

486
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 2: we're in the toy department here in the shopping mall

487
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 2: of Life and sports are the toy department. So we're

488
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:51,679
Speaker 2: staying in the toy department. That is why we're not

489
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 2: going to delve into Look, the first sex change operation

490
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: happened back in nineteen oh seven. Okay, so this is

491
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 2: nothing new. In nineteen seventy six, a doctor her by

492
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 2: the name of Richard Raskin had a sex change to

493
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 2: Renee Richards, who became a world ranked tennis player. So

494
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 2: we're gonna we're not gonna dive into that. But later on,

495
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 2: in about twenty six minutes, when we dive into the

496
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: midnight hour, when you heard that a male who was

497
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 2: born a male transitioned into a female was allowed to

498
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,239
Speaker 2: fight against a female in the Olympics, I want your

499
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 2: thoughts on that, So start warming up your vocal cords

500
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,120
Speaker 2: because that will be our one of our two topics

501
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 2: tonight during the midnight hour. So this is a young lady,

502
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 2: Angela Coreni trains for years, gets in her first fight

503
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 2: of the Paris Olympics against a fighter from Algeria named

504
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 2: Amain Kellef. She took multiple shots of the face early

505
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 2: in the first round, then with you know, Withdrew she

506
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 2: raised her hand forty six seconds in apparently had a

507
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 2: broken nose. She refused to handshake from her opponent and

508
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 2: was she's seen crying later. Interestingly enough, Khaliff was her opponent.

509
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 2: Khalif was disqualified hours before her gold medal at the

510
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three World Championships in New Delhi after she

511
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 2: failed a gender eligibility test. Now the International Boxing Association

512
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 2: the IBA, their rules prevent athletes from x Y chromosomes

513
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,919
Speaker 2: from competing in women's events. The IBA issued a statement

514
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 2: Wednesday saying the results of the test Khalif was subjected

515
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 2: to are confidential but conclusively indicated that Khalif did not

516
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 2: meet the required necessary eligibility criteria was found to have

517
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 2: competitive advantages over other female competitors. End Quotal after the fight. Karini,

518
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 2: the female fighter from Italy, could be yelling. It could

519
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 2: be heard yelling this is unjust as she withdrew from

520
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 2: the fight, and she later told reporters in attal and

521
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 2: she's never taken a punch like that. But stop short

522
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 2: of saying Khalif should not have been allowed to compete.

523
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,679
Speaker 2: I think she since upon apologized for not shaking hands.

524
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 2: Just to be clear and be complete here, she said,

525
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 2: quote quote I got into the ring to fight, but

526
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,360
Speaker 2: I didn't feel like it anymore. After the first minute,

527
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 2: I started to feel a strong pain in my nose.

528
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 2: I didn't give up, but a punch her too much,

529
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 2: so I said enough, I'm leaving with my head held

530
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 2: I now. Interestingly enough, Italian officials questioned Calice's eligibility before

531
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: Thursday's bout, and they actually encouraged Karini not to go

532
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 2: through with a fight, and apparently many of her fans

533
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 2: in Italy tried to tell her, don't go. It's a man,

534
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 2: it's dangerous for you. But she got into the ring

535
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 2: and to see what happened. Now. This year's boxing competition

536
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 2: is governed by the IOC's Paris Boxing unit, which has

537
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 2: many more relaxed rules than ever governing bodies. There's also

538
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 2: a second boxer from Chinese tape named Lynn Yu Ting,

539
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 2: also competing at the Olympics after being qualified for the

540
00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 2: World Championships last year for the same reason as Khalif.

541
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 2: That box one also, So there are two incidents. So

542
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 2: when you hear of this, what is your kneejerk reaction?

543
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 2: Should men be competing against women? But gladiator sports? Gladiator sports,

544
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 2: This one really doesn't sit right with me. But I

545
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,719
Speaker 2: want to hear from you, and we'll do that at

546
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 2: the top of the hour. So this is now, you know,

547
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 2: spilled over into international competition, and it's now spilled over

548
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 2: into what you would call a true gladiator sport. So

549
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 2: a little different dynamic here. We want to chop that

550
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 2: up in the midnight hour when we start taking your

551
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 2: calls at midnight. Of course, in twenty three minutes from

552
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 2: where I sit here in Las Vegas, it will be

553
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 2: twelve midnight literally, but where you sit it may be

554
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 2: twelve midnight literally as well, or anywhere around the world

555
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 2: where we get calls, it's certainly twelve midnight figuratively hour.

556
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 2: You've got the last word speaking the last word. I

557
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: want to talk about the New York Jets and Aaron

558
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 2: Rodgers and Garrett Wilson and many other things as well.

559
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 2: In retrospect, I wonder if Rogers wishes he might not

560
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 2: have gone to Egypt in missed mini camp. And I

561
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 2: don't say that tongue in cheek. I mean it seriously.

562
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 2: I'm seeing chinks in the armor here with the Jets.

563
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 2: We're gonna get to that in just a minute. It's

564
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 2: not just between Rogers and Garrett Wilson and some of

565
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 2: the other players. Robert sala is also part of this

566
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 2: as well. Are we headed towards a disaster or a

567
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 2: Super Bowl? What's more likely? I'm Bernie Fradder. We are

568
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 2: coming to live from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio

00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 2: the Bernie Fradder Show on Fox Sports Radio. All right,

571
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 2: back at the Bernie Fradle Show, Fox Sports Radio. We

00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 2: are coming to you live from the Tarack dot Com

00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 2: nine on Fox eight seven seven nine to nine, six

576
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 2: six three six nine. Bri will be taking your calls

577
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 2: your thoughts on the fight in which Italian female boxer

578
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 2: Angela Karini lost, want to get your thoughts when you

579
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 2: observe this. That's it, all right. The New York Jets

580
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 2: are going to continue to be I think, a very

581
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 2: in many ways polarizing story this year. The opposite of

582
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 2: love is not hate. If you hate, you have the

583
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 2: same emotion invested. When you love, you have to care.

584
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 2: So there are people that are rooting for the Jets

585
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 2: to fail, people that are rooting for the Jets to win.

586
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: It feels like there's just an incredible amount of pressure

587
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 2: on the Jets and Robert Sala and the entire organization,

588
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: especially on the heels of what happened last year after

589
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 2: four plays. And it didn't help, honestly, it It didn't

590
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 2: help that Rogers missed Mini Camp. I thought about this thing.

591
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 2: You know, he had everything planned to go to Egypt

592
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,240
Speaker 2: before he knew the dates of Mini Camp. Then he

593
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 2: got the dates of Mini Camp and he kind of

594
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 2: got it clear. But this whole thing is not going over.

595
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,239
Speaker 2: It's going over like a fart in church. It's just

596
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 2: not going well. Because you wonder now Mike Aaron Rodgers

597
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 2: as the face of the franchise now and the team

598
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 2: leader been better off to move his Egypt to it

599
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: back a month and spend mini camp working out some

600
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 2: fine details with his receivers. I covered the lines for

601
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 2: ten years pre and pulse and a phish capacity. Mini

602
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 2: camps important, there's the reason they have it. And interestingly enough,

603
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: just the other day, the Jets had their first practice

604
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,479
Speaker 2: and pads and according to reporters, it went very poorly

605
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 2: on my at least in the eyes of Aaron Rodgers,

606
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 2: and he was not afraid to let his teammates know it.

607
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 2: According to reports, Rogers was quote visibly upset through much

608
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 2: of the practice, according to Rich Saminia of ESPN, and

609
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 2: he lashed out at his teammates on several occasions. Now,

610
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 2: much of Aaron Rodgers' frustration seemingly stemmed from the many,

611
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 2: many miscues from the offensive line, including a number of

612
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 2: sacks poor snaps from their center Joe Tipman. Centers maybe

613
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 2: the most difficult position to learn in the National Football League.

614
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 2: You're not just snapping the ball. You're eating defenses and

615
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 2: looking at personnel groupings. There's a lot, there's more than

616
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: you realize, and this is second year so Rogers is

617
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: working with a guy who was probably kindergarten when Rogers

618
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 2: was making his debut in the league. Reports also indicated

619
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 2: that Aaron Rodgers was livid when one of his offensive

620
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 2: linemens stepped on his foot, which sent Rogers to the ground.

621
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 2: Can you imagine, all right, these things actually do happen.

622
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 2: He didn't mean to do it. Look, Alan Wizard, who

623
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 2: has history with Aaron Rodgers, stuck off for him a

624
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 2: little bit. He said, honestly, quote, he expects the same

625
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,839
Speaker 2: standard that he holds himself to out of everyone else.

626
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 2: You mean, like not showing up a mini camp. Okay,

627
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 2: couldn't resist that. Honestly, he expects the same standard that

628
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 2: he holds himself to out of everyone else. And today

629
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 2: he just didn't resemble that at all. The team didn't

630
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 2: resemble that at all. We think as an offense, we were

631
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 2: just a bit too sloppy. This is Alan Blizzard to

632
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 2: wide receiver who's got history with Aaron Rodgers. Now people

633
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 2: say this is not a cost for a panic, but

634
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 2: some people are panicking, especially this early in camp. This

635
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 2: is a red flag. Rogers his legacy secure. I believe

636
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 2: he's won a Super Bowl he's a prolific passer, He's

637
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 2: a brilliant talent. No one can argue that, but they're

638
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 2: there's always something around Aaron Rodgers that is not savory,

639
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 2: just isn't. I mean, we didn't have any of the

640
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 2: you know, spending the room, you know, the dark room,

641
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 2: or any of this goofy stuff that he talks about

642
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 2: things being a beautiful mystery, and he didn't have a

643
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 2: lot of that. But what you are having after four

644
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 2: snaps and basically zero success or experience with the New

645
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 2: York Jets, who are a pretty good team, that's a

646
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 2: defense that's very much for real, and they have enough

647
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 2: junk in their trunk to get to the playoffs and

648
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 2: make some noise in the playoffs. Last year they won

649
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 2: seven games with very moribund quarterback play. So you can

650
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 2: say this isn't necessarily a cost for panic. But the

651
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 2: problem is when you set the tone this early for

652
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 2: these kind of diet tribes, it leaves a bad taste

653
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: in some people's mouth and you are basically getting a

654
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 2: See Aaron Rodgers could get away with this in green Bay,

655
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 2: he had tenure. He made his bones in Green Bay.

656
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 2: Followed Brett Favre and when in three years won a

657
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, so that's the only time he won it.

658
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 2: But the look, they were a fixed ure in the playoffs,

659
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,319
Speaker 2: and Robert Rogers has thrown for a million yards, so

660
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 2: you get it. Okay, no one's questioning his ability. But

661
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,839
Speaker 2: now the Jets are getting a taste from the real

662
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers, considering the fact that because his season was

663
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 2: derailed by injury just a few snaps last year, they

664
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,160
Speaker 2: haven't had a chance to develop the kind of success

665
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 2: and build a foundation of good vibes because they didn't

666
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 2: win and Rogers didn't play. And it's pretty evident from

667
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 2: people that are there that Rogers is imminently aware of

668
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 2: what happened last year and how his season was cut short.

669
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,879
Speaker 2: He does not want that to happen again. And that

670
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 2: means Rogers, perhaps more than any other quarterback in the

671
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 2: NFL this year, is really going to need solid play

672
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 2: from his offensive line. Now, there are some other critics

673
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,800
Speaker 2: out there and their point, their their you know, opinion

674
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 2: must be hurt. They point out that Jets might not

675
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 2: be so discombobulated if Aaron Rodgers had been present for

676
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 2: many camp Now pumped the brakes just like I said

677
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 2: about the kickoff rule. It's very early in camp, and

678
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 2: like every team, the Jets, well they got they got

679
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,319
Speaker 2: to iron. They need to iron some things out, which

680
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 2: is a nice way of putting it. They need to

681
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 2: iron a lot of things out. They open up at

682
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 2: San Francisco. Then you had the situation of Robert Sala

683
00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:43,840
Speaker 2: briefly mentioned that Rogers might be taking some snaps in

684
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 2: the preseason. And Rogers does appear healthy, you know, he

685
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 2: remember he's coming off of torn achilles tendon a little

686
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 2: well less than a year ago, and I think it

687
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:57,799
Speaker 2: was probably presumed he wouldn't play in any of the

688
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 2: preseason games. But Robert Sala said, well, quote my instinct,

689
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 2: there's nobody I want to leave it open. And then

690
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 2: what does Rogers say, Well, that's news to me. But

691
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 2: then they all kind of backpack and says, well, you know,

692
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 2: if he wants me to play, you know, I'll be

693
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 2: ready to go. Man, I'll be all fired up. I'll pomp.

694
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 8: Yeah.

695
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 2: Right, Okay. Salad did say he definitely won't play in

696
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 2: the first two games, but they're having a discussion on

697
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 2: the third game. They haven't made up their decision yet.

698
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 2: I almost think you have to you have to do something.

699
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 2: You got to get back on the horse. Even though

700
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 2: exhibition games right are just that. But do you really

701
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 2: want to go into the season well having taken a

702
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 2: single snap with some live bullets coming at you. I

703
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 2: think I think that could be an issue. I really

704
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 2: do so. The second part of the Midnight Hour, which

705
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 2: we'll be taking your calls here in seven minutes eight seven,

706
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 2: seven nine nine, six six three sixty nine, is is

707
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 2: real simple. The bottom line is this. The Jets are

708
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: going to be a story this year. If they win,

709
00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 2: it's going to be a story. If they lose, it's

710
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 2: going to be a story how it happens. That's what

711
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 2: we're all waiting to see. And believe me, we are

712
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 2: waiting the Jets open up on Monday Night Football this year.

713
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:13,440
Speaker 2: It should be massively you know, I would say, watched

714
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,720
Speaker 2: the tension, just the first three or four snaps, watching

715
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,319
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers, and then they're gonna have to win. They're

716
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 2: gonna have to navigate that division. Miami is gonna be better,

717
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 2: Buffalo isn't going anywhere. A lot of pressure is on

718
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 2: the Jets, and a lot of pressure is on Robert Solid.

719
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 2: He's already listed as being one of the coaches on

720
00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 2: the hot seat. And we haven't even started the preseason yet.

721
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 2: So those are our two subjects. Olympic boxing, Angela Karini

00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 2: had a couple interesting tweets which I will read. And

724
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers and the Jets. Are you rooting for them

725
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 2: or against him? Or do you think they're gonna have

726
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 2: success or not have success? Keep it locked? You listening

727

736
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 2: you know what time it is. We have two subjects

737
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 2: tonight the phone. The phone lines are already lighting up,

738
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 2: so let's get to it. It is, in fact the

739
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 2: midnight hour.

740
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 1: Right now, the midnight hour.

741
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 2: So we had a report in the from the Olympics

742
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 2: that a boxer that we believed would transition from male

743
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,439
Speaker 2: to female. As a matter of fact, if that wasn't

744
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 2: the case, why did the IBA disquality this individual back

745
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,400
Speaker 2: in March twenty twenty three. However, we have to be

746
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 2: respectful to all input, and I want to read a

747
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 2: couple tweets before I get to these calls long in

748
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 2: the short of it is is that you know, everybody,

749
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 2: this is gonna be a highly charged situation as his

750
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:24,400
Speaker 2: most midnight hours. Okay, one Steve misplaced San Diego Stanford

751
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 2: Warriors fans, and no man should ever be allowed to

752
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 2: go against a woman. By the way, the New York

753
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 2: Jets will be done by week six. It's just crazy

754
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,040
Speaker 2: the tweets that are coming. In a civilized society, if

755
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,280
Speaker 2: a man beat type of women, they're arrested for assault

756
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 2: and batter. However, this is condoned by the Olympics. Moss

757
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 2: tweets in that that tweet was from Homer in nineteen

758
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,280
Speaker 2: sixty seven. Moss tweets in a mean Khalif was assigned

759
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 2: a female at birth the gender test you failed. Weeks

760
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 2: of corruption. Okay, maybe I can learn something here. Fred Nebraska.

761
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 2: I don't see any biological women trying to compete in

762
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,319
Speaker 2: the men's boxing division. To you, chromosomes decide what sex

763
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 2: you are, and of stories say as you can see. Uh,

764
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 2: you know this is not this is a this is

765
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 2: gonna be an interesting one tonight. Raging romanticist, one of

766
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 2: my good listeners says, you're about to put your foot

767
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,879
Speaker 2: in your mouth regarding the Koreey fight. Do some research. Well,

768
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,359
Speaker 2: I've done a lot of research, but maybe there's some more.

769
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 2: All right, So let's get to the callers. Phil in

770
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 2: Massachusetts start us off tonight. My man, you know what

771
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 2: to do? He hear it. I can hear your pil

772
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 2: Yes we can.

773
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 11: You're on the air, O sons.

774
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 12: Good, all right, I'll live in Massachusetts, the most liberal

775
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 12: in the un I don't really agree with men who

776
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 12: have transitioned competing women's sports.

777
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 2: Hey, Phil, Phil can want you to do me a Phil,

778
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 2: do me a favor. You're gonna go right up next.

779
00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 2: But we're having a phone issue. Uh and it sounds like,

780
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 2: you know, an old record from the Three Stooges is

781
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 2: skipping a beat. I want to hear what you gotta say.

782
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 2: We just need at her phone connection. My man. Okay,

783
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,359
Speaker 2: so call right back and Bi'll take your call. Bri'll

784
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 2: let me know when you're back. Jim also from Massachusetts,

785
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:09,720
Speaker 2: So looking forward to what you got to say tonight.

786
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 8: Hey, Bernie, It's amazing to me that when all this

787
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:17,759
Speaker 8: controversy hit France, France goes well it said female on

788
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 8: her passport. With all the drug testing and all X

789
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 8: like chromosomes and stuff and everything, that was their best defense.

790
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 8: Well on the passport it said she was a female.

791
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:30,800
Speaker 8: This is a severe black guy's going to taint this Olympics.

792
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 8: And you know, it's just a start, but I think

793
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 8: this is a tip of the iceberg and all of

794
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,719
Speaker 8: this stuff is going to crash. Now. Remember Biden and

795
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 8: Harris just signed the title nine thing saying that men

796
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 8: can compete in women's sports and if you complain, you

797
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 8: can get charged with a crime. So you know that's

798
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 8: how far this is going. So I think it's going

799
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,920
Speaker 8: to get real back in the next day, next year

800
00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 8: or so.

801
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 2: I mean, what are your thoughts on well, what are

802
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 2: your thoughts Jim on the Jets and Aaron Rodgers And

803
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 2: there's already right out of the gate, there's already a

804
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,799
Speaker 2: little trouble in Paradise. People should not act like there's

805
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 2: not This is not a good look. Are you rooting

806
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 2: for the Jets and what are your thoughts? Are they

807
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 2: going to do well this year or not? Are you

808
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 2: rooting for them or not?

809
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 8: I think I think they're going to do well. The

810
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 8: thing is, like you said before, like Chuck Daly used

811
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,879
Speaker 8: to say that they're they're managing an adult day kiss

812
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,760
Speaker 8: and that's thing in the NFL, same thing in the NFL.

813
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 8: But I do believe he should get some time in

814
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 8: preseason because it's all about timing. I mean, that's when

815
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,400
Speaker 8: you get hurt if you're not up to speed with

816
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 8: the timing.

817
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 2: I think the Jets are got to.

818
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 8: Do good enough to get into the playoffs, and then

819
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 8: when they get into the playoffs, it's just like Al

820
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 8: maguire used to stay about the NCAA terms, not about winning,

821
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 8: it's about surviving and see what happens. But I think

822
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 8: they're going to do well.

823
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm in agreement, Jim. I thank you, appreciate your

824
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 2: calls as always, and I wanted the main thing I

825
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 2: want to see is Aaron Rodgers deplete the season, even

826
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 2: if he starts fifteen out of seventeen games with that defense.

827
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 2: This is gonna be a great story. Bree, do by

828
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 2: any chance to have fell back that he call back

829
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 2: in phill for Massachusetts. Okay, thanks, bre Let's go to

830
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,439
Speaker 2: Mike in Modesto. Mike, you're up next.

831
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:16,320
Speaker 4: Welcome in well, Bernie.

832
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:21,960
Speaker 13: I feel that it's very simple that it's not fair

833
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,800
Speaker 13: to women who have trained their whole life, even women

834
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 13: as far as high school level and above, they should

835
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 13: not have to compete against men. This is the ultimate

836
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 13: attack on women. And if women have to shut up

837
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:44,320
Speaker 13: before a social reason, feminist should be ashamed of themselves

838
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,280
Speaker 13: because if you keep this up, you will destroy women's sports.

839
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,719
Speaker 13: Men will hold all your records and you are the

840
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:57,280
Speaker 13: blame for it. Just to be direct, Fantasy Island inns

841
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 13: in the competitive arena were born with x Y chromosomes.

842
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 14: You should not be able to compete in women sports.

843
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 14: It's unfair Aaron Rodgers. If he's not done, they have

844
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 14: the kind of defense it could work. The question is

845
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 14: if he done at the age he is. Sometimes quarterbacks

846
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 14: just fall off. So if he can play well and

847
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 14: be like Aaron Rodgers, they have a chance. My guess

848
00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,399
Speaker 14: is like the guy said, week six, start done. That's

849
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 14: what I think.

850
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 2: Interesting. Okay, the interesting stuff, Mike. Appreciate your call as always,

851
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 2: Thank you so much. We did get Phil from Massachusetts

852
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 2: back Phil fingers crossed that your phone line is a

853
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 2: little better. So let's start over. Phil.

854
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 12: Hey, I think a spire. Can you hear me?

855
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 2: Yeah? This is good? Better go ahead?

856
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:53,319
Speaker 12: All right? So as far as the boxer goes, look,

857
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,720
Speaker 12: she was born as a woman. She has a jet

858
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 12: a condition. She has not transitioned. She should be able

859
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:05,760
Speaker 12: to come. Some men are born with more physicality as

860
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 12: than other men those they should be able to compete.

861
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 12: You know. Uh, as far as that goes, you know,

862
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 12: she hasn't transitioned. She was was born. Yes, she has

863
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:19,240
Speaker 12: a genetic condition that he has an X Y chromosome.

864
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,440
Speaker 12: But she was born as a woman, she lived as

865
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 12: a woman.

866
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 2: Just what does it get? Stand on the line, Phil,

867
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:29,600
Speaker 2: This is where this gets so interesting. Just got a

868
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,880
Speaker 2: tweet from someone named Chris and dude she he was

869
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 2: replying to raging romanticist. Dude she tested positive for an

870
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 2: X chromosome. I don't care if he chose to be

871
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,320
Speaker 2: a girl growing up. Clearly you've not done your research.

872
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 2: This is so damn confusing to me. But the Italian

873
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 2: boxer quit saying she'd never been hit like that felt

874
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,280
Speaker 2: like a punch from a man. Anyway, continue on, Phil,

875
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,560
Speaker 2: because we find out the more confusing it gets. Go ahead.

876
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 12: Look, this is this is the point. If somebody is

877
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 12: a man, was born as a man in transition to

878
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,880
Speaker 12: a woman, and they should not compete in women's sports,

879
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 12: that's not fair. They have a genetic advantage. If somebody

880
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 12: was born as a woman and they have a genetic

881
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 12: issue that says they have an x Y chromosome, but

882
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:17,320
Speaker 12: they have a woman's you know, body parts, they should

883
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,279
Speaker 12: be able to compete. That shouldn't be an issue. You know,

884
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 12: men sometimes are just stronger than other men and they're

885
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 12: allowed to compete. So if she's born as a woman,

886
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 12: allowed to compete as a woman, that that is fine

887
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 12: with me.

888
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 2: Okay, thoughts. Do you have any thoughts on the New

889
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:33,240
Speaker 2: York Jets and Aaron Rodgers.

890
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:39,799
Speaker 11: He's talking to me, yeah, oh yeah, all right.

891
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 12: Joey Rodgers as I don't know what's going on with him.

892
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 12: He has not played, he has not practiced.

893
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 1: I'm not sure you're gonna win this year or not.

894
00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 12: I don't know what's going on. The dude is like

895
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:52,879
Speaker 12: forty years old.

896
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 4: He has not practiced.

897
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:58,239
Speaker 12: He doesn't care. He's just coasting on his you know,

898
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 12: natural talent. I think that the season for the Jets

899
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 12: is going to.

900
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:02,919
Speaker 4: Be a fail.

901
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 2: Okay, appreciate your call. Thanks so much. Phil. We do

902
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:10,880
Speaker 2: this every Friday night at midnight Pacific time. You know,

903
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if Rogers is coasting or he didn't care,

904
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,239
Speaker 2: but I do know this. He should have gone to

905
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,720
Speaker 2: Mini caamp and this is not off to a good start.

906
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 2: London and Los Angeles, Welcome to the Bernie Frader Show.

907
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 2: How are you?

908
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:21,879
Speaker 9: I'm fine?

909
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 2: How are you good? Thanks for calling in? What you got?

910
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 4: So?

911
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,839
Speaker 15: I felt the years to call in because this is

912
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 15: a topic that is I have some experience with. I

913
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 15: suppose I am the fans. That means I used to

914
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 15: be transgender. For several years, I was, and then I

915
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 15: decided not to be anymore. I think it was not

916
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 15: a good life decision. And so with regard to this, yeah,

917
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 15: I want good watching the Olympics, well I can give you.

918
00:49:56,200 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 15: I wanted to frame this issue because it is actually

919
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 15: this is an issue that to me, has it has

920
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 15: it has too much nuance for a lot of the

921
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 15: discussion that's going on.

922
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 12: Phil.

923
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:16,280
Speaker 15: While I agreed with or while he had a better

924
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 15: handle on the facts, I ultimately disagreed with his position

925
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 15: on it. So yes, uh Imani killis was as so,

926
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:35,759
Speaker 15: what assigned female at birth appeared to be female by

927
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 15: all accounts, but as she grew up it appeared that

928
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 15: she manifested more male traits. I'm not saying that with

929
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 15: regrets of the genitalium thing that with regards to things

930
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 15: like you know, bones, shoulders, and it looked at her,

931
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 15: you can tell that that is the case. It was.

932
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:54,319
Speaker 16: Actually there was.

933
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:57,040
Speaker 15: Another case I believe it was in the Olympics as well,

934
00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 15: with a runner named Castor Semenya, same condition. I know

935
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,280
Speaker 15: that there there's plenty of different conditions with regard to that. Anyway,

936
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:10,719
Speaker 15: it's x Y chromosomes is correct, ds the differences in

937
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:14,120
Speaker 15: sexual development, there's the at least the catsul term for

938
00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 15: these things. So well, Phil is correct that she was

939
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:25,319
Speaker 15: female from birth essentially, and then I suppose you could

940
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:28,360
Speaker 15: say found out that she at least.

941
00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 2: In from your standpoint, From your standpoint, is there is

942
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,680
Speaker 2: there a flag you throw here or or is I

943
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:39,239
Speaker 2: mean Gileff? There's no harm, no foul here, just real quickly,

944
00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 2: what are your thoughts on that?

945
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 15: I would say that while it would appear to not

946
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:45,879
Speaker 15: be fair to her, she needs to take a step

947
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 15: back and realize that it's not fair to anybody else.

948
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:52,000
Speaker 15: I think that that is a we've become too focused

949
00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:55,799
Speaker 15: on these, you know, tiny little cases in society at

950
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:57,840
Speaker 15: the expense of the majority.

951
00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 2: When you say fair to her, are you talking about

952
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 2: koreem or left to left?

953
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 15: I can understand why. You know you're here to have

954
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 15: this natural ability, and then you grow up and then

955
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 15: you people say that it's not fair that you're competing,

956
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 15: but it is not fair that she's competing.

957
00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:15,080
Speaker 2: Okay, but very broad based answer. These are great calls

958
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 2: as usual, we always do you have any thoughts on

959
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:18,800
Speaker 2: the Jets whatsoever? London?

960
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 15: I like Aaron Rodgers. I think he's quote unquote based.

961
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 15: I think it would be nice if the Jets would

962
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 15: be good for once. However, I have been hearing so

963
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 15: much overhype this year, maybe not less so this year

964
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:39,160
Speaker 15: than last year. People are like, oh, I think the Jets, well,

965
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 15: I think they're going to get to the AFC Championship game,

966
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:43,279
Speaker 15: and it's like, what on earth is going on?

967
00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:45,680
Speaker 7: And I think it's just you know, New York media.

968
00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,719
Speaker 15: Blah blah blah. I always have to hear about the

969
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:51,280
Speaker 15: Mets and Nicks, even though they both stink and always

970
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 15: have and so to me, I think I'm torn.

971
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:56,320
Speaker 14: I'm torn.

972
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 7: If the Jets do well, that's good for the Jets.

973
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,279
Speaker 2: If you'll be watching though, right now, pay attention that.

974
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:03,880
Speaker 2: All right, thanks a lot, man, I appreciate you call tonight.

975
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:09,319
Speaker 2: We're off and running, Artemis, Poppy, Bryce, Manuel, hang tight,

976
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:11,600
Speaker 2: don't go anywhere. I want to get to everybody tonight.

977
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 2: This is a very unique topic. Perhaps more information's coming out,

978
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:17,720
Speaker 2: but all we can do is react to what happened

979
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 2: yesterday and the show's tonight, So what might transpire the

980
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 2: next three days with new information? I can't deal it tonight.

981
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 2: We got to deal with it here and now. So

982
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 2: we want to hear from you the thoughts on the

983
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 2: boxing Max between Leff and Karini, you know what happened,

984
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 2: and Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. They're fighting

985
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 2: like high school sophomores. Don't act like they're not. It's

986
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,280
Speaker 2: a bad look to start the season where there's already

987
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 2: tons of pressure. Is that going to affect them? You

988
00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:43,920
Speaker 2: still think they can get to the Super Bowl? Do

1000
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 2: and Karini. Kleef one Karini thought she was fighting a man.

1001
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 2: I'm not going to solve that issue tonight. The only

1002
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,359
Speaker 2: thing I know what's been reported is back in March

1003
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three, Klef came under spotlight as the

1004
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,360
Speaker 2: IBA disqualified from a gold medal match, saying shit that

1005
00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,560
Speaker 2: a test showed she quote did not meet the required

1006
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:47,720
Speaker 2: necessary eligibility and found to have competitive advantages male characteristics. Okay,

1007
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:52,399
Speaker 2: we're not going to solve that. We're reacting to what

1008
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 2: you saw and what your reaction was. Artemis in Dallas.

1009
00:54:56,800 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 2: Thanks for hanging out, and you're up next. Are you there, Artemis?

1010
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'm here.

1011
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 2: I'm here. Yeah, go ahead.

1012
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:14,759
Speaker 4: I am a trans woman from Texas and I've dealt

1013
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 4: with a lot of hate and oppression in my time.

1014
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 4: You can't go to the women's bathroom, even though my

1015
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 4: pronouns is she her. Don't let the voice for you.

1016
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 4: They say you can't get married, They say you can't

1017
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 4: wear a skirt and talk in public. Well, it's twenty

1018
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:33,320
Speaker 4: twenty four and a lot of those things are legal.

1019
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:35,760
Speaker 4: And it's also legal for her to punch a woman

1020
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 4: in the Olympics because she is a woman.

1021
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,600
Speaker 2: You got cleared. So we're not debating that she won

1022
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,520
Speaker 2: the fight. She got cleared by an international committee, not

1023
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 2: questioning that. What I'm wondering is people's reactions to what

1024
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 2: they're observing. I don't believe we'd seen that before in

1025
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 2: the Olympics, So what are reactions to that. You're okay

1026
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,720
Speaker 2: with it, basically, right.

1027
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:59,280
Speaker 4: I am okay with it because she is a woman.

1028
00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 2: Right, you're on the line. I'm taking your call. I

1029
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:10,080
Speaker 2: did the midnight hour, did the midnight hour to force

1030
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:13,040
Speaker 2: my opinions on people. Okay, yeah, go go ahead, And

1031
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:14,200
Speaker 2: then I want to hear what you got to say

1032
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 2: about the Jets. If you have any thoughts about.

1033
00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:19,520
Speaker 4: That, I think it is okay. I think it's okay.

1034
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 2: Okay. PUNCHONEI if you're a woman, well, duly noted, duly noted,

1035
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 2: do you have any thoughts on the New York Jets.

1036
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 4: Oh, Aaron Rodgers. He's supposed to be the savior of

1037
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,399
Speaker 4: the team, right, And I hate to say this about

1038
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 4: him because he has good things to say about the

1039
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 4: LGBTQ community, But he's a bomb.

1040
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 2: He's supposed to be the savior.

1041
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 4: He's supposed to be. He's supposed to be God Almighty

1042
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:47,399
Speaker 4: the savior. And it's not happening that way. He's far

1043
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:51,240
Speaker 4: from the savior. It's starting to make me believe, damn

1044
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 4: was he Was it him or was it the other

1045
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 4: players on Green Bay that was one of those championships?

1046
00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 2: There you go, that's that's a fair question of you know,

1047
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,760
Speaker 2: it is becoming a parent, It is becoming a parent

1048
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 2: every day.

1049
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,919
Speaker 4: That it wasn't him. He wasn't the Golden Key.

1050
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 2: Artemis, thanks for hanging on, appreciate your call tonight, and

1051
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,320
Speaker 2: he brings up a very good point regarding the Jets

1052
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:19,600
Speaker 2: and rogers to miss Minnie Camp and then to conduct

1053
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:22,400
Speaker 2: himself right out of the gate this week, first week

1054
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 2: in pads. It doesn't show the kind of leadership you

1055
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 2: expect from a guy you're paying fifty million dollars to you.

1056
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,320
Speaker 2: And by the way, Artemis is right, he is toddled

1057
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 2: as the savior if not him who Poppy who correctly

1058
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 2: predicted last week take the US lay the fourteen against

1059

00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 16: should have been.

1068
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 17: Competing all, you know, legally according to the Olympics committee

1069

00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 16: be fighting for those people that say that they're women

1076
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:22,160
Speaker 16: and they're not.

1077
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 11: But I don't know.

1078
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 16: I saw the highlights and I felt like it was

1079
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 16: a hot dog. That person with rand was like for me,

1080
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 16: I thought personally that was a man, and you know,

1081
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 16: I thought that was unacceptable. But it's all part of

1082
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:37,240
Speaker 16: the propaganda what the Olympics are doing. They're like pushing

1083
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 16: all this agenda for people. But hey, it is twenty

1084
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,240
Speaker 16: twenty fourths. Crazy stuff's happened. More crazy stuff is going

1085
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:43,640
Speaker 16: to happen.

1086
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 2: Speaking of crazy stuff, what about the Jets and Aaron Rodgers?

1087
00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 16: Yes, what crazy stuff? I have a crazy take me

1088
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 16: for you, Bernie. I know you're gonna love this. Well, look,

1089
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 16: Aaron Rodgers is not going to training camp. So this

1090
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 16: is my conspiracy theory. He had to take a year

1091
00:58:57,640 --> 00:58:59,960
Speaker 16: off last year, who went to Peru? And this year?

1092
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 16: You know, Egypt has the place to be Egypt, Egypt,

1093
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 16: and he went with King Tut and he had a

1094
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:13,640
Speaker 16: generation like he rejuvenized himself, Bernie, And what's gonna happen

1095
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,560
Speaker 16: a lot of people are criticizing him. He's been horrible, horrible.

1096
00:59:16,760 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 16: But you know what, I love this because this should

1097
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 16: be on hard knocks. It shouldn't be the Giants, it

1098
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 16: should be the Jets. I'm really loving all this drama

1099
00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,640
Speaker 16: because when it comes to the regular season, he's going

1100
00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 16: to gear up, he's going to plan training caps, and

1101
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 16: I see the Jets going to the playoffs and Aaron

1102
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 16: Rodgers doing a good, good season.

1103
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 9: So that's my take.

1104
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 2: O great, all right, poppy, fair enough, and we're going

1105
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 2: to know soon enough. They open up at San Francisco

1106
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 2: on Monday Night football on September ninth or eighth or ninth.

1107
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:48,080
Speaker 2: I think if Monday September ninth, excuse me, and we're

1108
00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 2: going to be watching, that's for sure. Bryce in Texas,

1109
00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:53,080
Speaker 2: you're up next your thoughts tonight.

1110
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 7: Oh I am so glad.

1111
00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 18: I'm so close to getting a hole pizza delivery guy

1112
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 18: that uh deliver the pizza to Michael Jordan's's hotel to

1113
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 18: give them the Flue game. And I'm sending them stay

1114
01:00:06,200 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 18: over to Aaron Rodgers. I can't wait as a brown

1115
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 18: less and less competition.

1116
01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,960
Speaker 2: So you're looking for, you're looking forward to to, You're

1117
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 2: looking forward to the just the face plant this year? Right? Basically, yeah,

1118
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:26,000
Speaker 2: could they possibly surprise you Bryce and do well and

1119
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:26,840
Speaker 2: get to the playoffs?

1120
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 3: Maybe?

1121
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:31,640
Speaker 18: Or I mean I guess I would be a surprise,

1122
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 18: but not a surprise. I want.

1123
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:36,200
Speaker 2: I love that you're rooting against him, because this makes

1124
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 2: our point. If this is the way the world works,

1125
01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:42,240
Speaker 2: the opposite of love is not Hated's a difference. Quickly

1126
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 2: on the Olympic boxing match. You have any thoughts on that, Yeah.

1127
01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:51,160
Speaker 18: Whether she's whether this person's actually a nail or it's

1128
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 18: a genetic thing. I think this is really good conversation

1129
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,280
Speaker 18: to have because it's going to happen in the future

1130
01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:55,880
Speaker 18: if not now.

1131
01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,360
Speaker 11: And what's confusing me all week is we get.

1132
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,120
Speaker 18: Mad at Harris Butcher or saying what he said on stage,

1133
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 18: and that's sending women's rights back in quality back fifty

1134
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:10,240
Speaker 18: years or so. But then when you allow this, it's

1135
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:13,720
Speaker 18: literally sending women's rights the ability to compete at a

1136
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 18: fair level way back. And I don't know how you

1137
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 18: justify that in your head moving forward. If you're going

1138
01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 18: to allow people who are just naturally more dominant because

1139
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 18: of the chromosodes they were born with to compete against

1140
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 18: women who don't have that same advange.

1141
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:33,320

Speaker 12: no chances Arnet and the.

1173
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 19: Lovely Breezy and my man Kevin Figlas shevn DJ Kevin Fegas,

1174
01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 19: how you guys doing tonight?

1175
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,520
Speaker 2: We were doing any better? We have to sell tickets. Man,

1176
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:18,360
Speaker 2: what are your thoughts on our two subjects tonight?

1177
01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:24,920
Speaker 19: Well, man, no one's it's a really really big deal.

1178
01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 19: I mean this whole the woman competing as a man thing. Man,

1179
01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,360
Speaker 19: I don't even know where to start or where to

1180
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:35,720
Speaker 19: end with it, to be honest.

1181
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,760
Speaker 2: Well, here here's the thing, man. You're a thoughtful guy.

1182
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 2: You are, and you usually find angles that a lot

1183
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:43,600
Speaker 2: of other people don't. The one thing that I'm happy

1184
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,440
Speaker 2: for tonight, no hate speech, no hating. These people are

1185
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,280
Speaker 2: human beings, whether you like them or not. Okay, they

1186
01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 2: are God breathed life into them. They are human beings,

1187
01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:55,840
Speaker 2: and so we are not attacking anybody personally. This is

1188
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:59,959
Speaker 2: being reported as an international event. Okay, you can't ignore.

1189
01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 2: So let's go to the people. What do they think.

1190
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:05,960
Speaker 2: You're right, it's a highly charged situation. But when you

1191
01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 2: saw it, what was the knee jerk reaction you had?

1192
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,440
Speaker 19: Well, my knee jerk reaction would be that you're gonna

1193
01:04:15,560 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 19: have to almost do male, female and then other, you know,

1194
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:24,680
Speaker 19: I mean, because how do you make everything fair? I

1195
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 19: really don't think there is a way unless you do

1196
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:30,440
Speaker 19: like male, female and other. And I know that's going

1197
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,960
Speaker 19: to be a touchy subject because, like you said, they

1198
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:36,960
Speaker 19: are human beings. We're all human beings, and that kind

1199
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:40,640
Speaker 19: of preference is something that's new, so it's a tough thing.

1200
01:04:40,720 --> 01:04:44,440
Speaker 19: But yeah, I think that they need to let women

1201
01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:47,760
Speaker 19: compete with women, and men with men and men a

1202
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 19: if they want to have a third category, then let

1203
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:56,520
Speaker 19: the people that are transgender have their own I think

1204
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 19: I don't know, man Like, it's a tough one man,

1205
01:04:59,280 --> 01:04:59,920
Speaker 19: all right, fair.

1206
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:01,320
Speaker 11: Enough, I just want to be respectful.

1207
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 2: No, that's good. I'm glad and you kind of summarized it.

1208
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:09,240
Speaker 2: There's no there's no conclusive, conclusive answer here. From where

1209
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:11,320
Speaker 2: you sit is where you stand. How about the New

1210
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 2: York Jets and the uh the uh you know, the

1211
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers saga.

1212
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 19: Well, look, man, I was a big Aaron Rodgerson. Green

1213
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,480
Speaker 19: Bay used to be my second team, and then he

1214
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:28,000
Speaker 19: started acting in ass you know, and uh from Egypt

1215
01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:32,120
Speaker 19: to the crap last year of you know, acting like

1216
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:34,479
Speaker 19: he was going to come back when everybody knew he wasn't.

1217
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:37,080
Speaker 11: I'm just tired of the whole act.

1218
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:39,880
Speaker 19: To be honest. I mean, he's a he's a great,

1219
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:41,920
Speaker 19: but I don't know that he's as great as he

1220
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:44,840
Speaker 19: thinks he is in his own mind. He's no Brett Barb.

1221
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:47,960
Speaker 19: I'll just leave it at that. Keep it real, Bernie,

1222

Speaker 2: Bernie can you hear me, Yes, we can hear you.

1226
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 2: Just fine, Thank you?

1227
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:06,080
Speaker 20: Hi, shirts off, How are you doing tonight?

1228
01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 2: Go ahead?

1229
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:09,840
Speaker 4: Good.

1230
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 16: So I have a little bit.

1231
01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 20: Of a perspective on the Ammani Khalif issue. I am

1232
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:19,040
Speaker 20: a transgender woman. Again, don't let the voice fool you.

1233
01:06:19,160 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 20: Like the other caller, I just haven't voice trained. But

1234
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,120
Speaker 20: there's a couple of things that I want to touch

1235
01:06:25,160 --> 01:06:28,520
Speaker 20: on that I haven't really heard anybody talk about. In

1236
01:06:28,560 --> 01:06:31,320
Speaker 20: my apologies if you mentioned this, I haven't been listening

1237
01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 20: the whole time. But a Moni Khalif, her record is

1238
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 20: fought fifty one total times and she's lost nine times.

1239
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,080
Speaker 2: That's right, That's exactly right. I was going to get

1240
01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:46,480
Speaker 2: to that she has lost nine bouts against other female fighters.

1241
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:48,520
Speaker 2: Thanks for reminding the folks of that.

1242
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,920
Speaker 3: Go ahead, and with.

1243
01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 20: That, there's a lot a lot of this whole controversy

1244
01:06:54,520 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 20: is fueled by bigotry and ignorance, which I've experienced a

1245
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,880
Speaker 20: lot of that firsthand, just in my life and with

1246
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,360
Speaker 20: my friends and around a lot of different people. But

1247
01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 20: she has lost nine times to other women, which a

1248
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 20: lot of people want to say it's not fair that

1249
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:15,480
Speaker 20: she's fighting against other women. But she doesn't have this

1250
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:21,280
Speaker 20: enormous physical advantage towards she's dominating every fight she's been in, right,

1251
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 20: So a lot of this is Karni being a sore

1252
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,120
Speaker 20: loser and wanting to have an issue out of this.

1253
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:36,160
Speaker 20: And also in Algeria, where Amani Calif is from, LGBT

1254
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 20: rights are very, very non progressive. It is actually illegal

1255
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:44,960
Speaker 20: to be gay or to even transition. So not that

1256
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:47,960
Speaker 20: not a trans woman. She was born a woman. She

1257
01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:50,920
Speaker 20: has a genetic condition that has her with an extra chromosome.

1258
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:55,440
Speaker 20: But even if she happened to be she literally could

1259
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 20: not be trans because it is a is a crime

1260
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:01,520
Speaker 20: punishable by death in her home country. So I don't

1261
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:05,920
Speaker 20: think anybody's mentioned that yet, but that's a pretty big point,

1262
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,240
Speaker 20: is that her literal home country would not allow her

1263
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:12,520
Speaker 20: to be living if she was what people are trying

1264
01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:13,480
Speaker 20: to claim she has.

1265
01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:17,720
Speaker 2: All right, very broad based call. Appreciate your perspectives a lot.

1266
01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 2: Do you care to weigh in on the New York

1267
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:21,800
Speaker 2: Jets and Aaron Rodgers? Yeah?

1268
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:22,120
Speaker 12: I do.

1269
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:28,479
Speaker 20: So it's kind of complicated in that I was originally

1270
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 20: a big fan of Aaron Rodgers and then like the

1271
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 20: last callers that he's kind of gone off the deep

1272
01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,519
Speaker 20: end in the last few years. So on one hand,

1273
01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:39,080
Speaker 20: I want to see the Jets succeed because they've been

1274
01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,640
Speaker 20: long suffering and it's kind of a running They're just

1275
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:44,640
Speaker 20: a running joke, and I always like to root for

1276
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:50,880
Speaker 20: the underdog story and the stories that are interesting. I

1277
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:52,960
Speaker 20: have the feeling that if Rogers stays healthy, they're going

1278
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 20: to finish like nine to eight. Probably not as good

1279
01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 20: as they want to be, but I do think they

1280
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:01,559
Speaker 20: have a chance at making a run if they get

1281
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:02,080
Speaker 20: to that point.

1282
01:09:02,280 --> 01:09:04,160
Speaker 2: If he says healthy appreciate the call to night, and

1283
01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:07,600
Speaker 2: I think the takeaway there is that this would be

1284
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:10,360
Speaker 2: a better story if Rogers wins, but sometimes he makes

1285
01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:13,040
Speaker 2: it hard for people to root for him. Let's get

1286
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:15,080
Speaker 2: one more in here, more from Idaho. You're up next.

1287
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:17,679
Speaker 11: Hey Bernie, thanks for taking my call.

1288
01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:18,640
Speaker 2: You bet.

1289
01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:24,360
Speaker 11: Here's the perspectives that I have on the trends. I

1290
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:28,439
Speaker 11: can't Let's just say, you have a really good college

1291
01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:32,839
Speaker 11: basketball player but not quite good enough to like flavor

1292
01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:37,240
Speaker 11: enc State, so he trans plays for a women's team,

1293
01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 11: or you have an NBA player washing out after about

1294
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:46,360
Speaker 11: ten years. He plays in the w NBA and I mean,

1295
01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 11: they're going to be awfully good in the w NBA

1296
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,439
Speaker 11: or in women's basketball. I think that answers a lot

1297
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,120
Speaker 11: of questions there. I think it's real difficult for the

1298
01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 11: people that are trans I'm listening tonight and listening to

1299
01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:01,960
Speaker 11: their perspectives. I don't know what the answer is for them.

1300
01:10:02,360 --> 01:10:05,679
Speaker 11: A couple of callers back said men women another Maybe

1301
01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:09,799
Speaker 11: maybe that's it. I don't know. Golf would be another

1302
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 11: sport or in the shot, but if you had a

1303
01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 11: man trans to a woman, they'd probably dominate that sport.

1304
01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:23,040
Speaker 2: Any thought. Aaron Rodgers and the Jets my man seven wins.

1305
01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 11: I used to really like Aaron Rodgers.

1306
01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:24,720
Speaker 8: And.

1307
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:32,559
Speaker 2: So you think the Jets will only win seven games

1308
01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:34,519
Speaker 2: even if Rogers is healthy all year.

1309
01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:38,080
Speaker 8: Well, they want time to think he won't.

1310
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 11: I don't think he's going to be healthy all year.

1311
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 2: That's fair, that's fair. That's that's really the elephant in

1312
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:45,200
Speaker 2: the room here. We'll appreciate your call. Don't be a stranger.

1313
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:50,720
Speaker 2: Every Friday night, midnight Pacific time, that's where I said,

1314
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:55,120
Speaker 2: I'm guessing it's maybe you're two hours ahead of some Idaho.

1315
01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:58,000
Speaker 2: We want to hear from the callers I'm standing callers tonight,

1316
01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:01,559
Speaker 2: able to have a conversation and above board without any

1317
01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,760
Speaker 2: personal diet tribes or at hominem attacks. That's not what

1318
01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:06,920
Speaker 2: this is about. This is an international sports story. The

1319
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:11,320
Speaker 2: Paris Olympics have been spectacular. Fred Hank Tight, Fred from Nebraska,

1320
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:13,559
Speaker 2: you will be up next. I'm Bernie Fraddach. We're coming

1321
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:15,240
Speaker 2: to your line from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio

1322
01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,800
Speaker 2: Tirack dot Com studios. Keep it locked. You're listening to

1323
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:23,559
Speaker 2: the Bernie Fratters Show on Fox Sports Radio. All right,

1324
01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:27,280
Speaker 2: back on the Bernie Fratter Show, we continue with our

1325
01:11:27,320 --> 01:11:30,080
Speaker 2: topics of the midnight hours. We wrap it up the

1326
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:34,000
Speaker 2: Olympic Boxing Mansion, the New York Jets. Andy from Minnesota,

1327
01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:38,840
Speaker 2: You're up next. Andy is gone. Fred from Nebraska, how

1328
01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 2: are you?

1329
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:44,760
Speaker 9: Yeah? I tweeted also I didn't like what I saw,

1330
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:47,120
Speaker 9: but I was kind of question how did these two

1331
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:49,680
Speaker 9: people get into the Olympics. Didn't they have to go

1332
01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:53,800
Speaker 9: through qualifiers in their country? Yes they did. Yeah, it's

1333
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:57,640
Speaker 9: just amazing. Nobody's say anything then, but we have the Olympics,

1334
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:01,479
Speaker 9: the Paralympics, the Olympics. I guess now we need to

1335
01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:05,120
Speaker 9: have the trans Olympics. But and I was also wondering.

1336
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 9: I wonder if, like Floyd Mayweather, Mike Tyson said, Hey,

1337
01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:09,680
Speaker 9: I'm female, I'm going to go to the Olympics and

1338
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:13,200
Speaker 9: beat up some people. You know, that's okay too. But

1339
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:16,920
Speaker 9: as far as Aaron Rodgers, what I hear is I

1340
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:19,479
Speaker 9: hear a lot of people saying things that they're laying

1341
01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:22,559
Speaker 9: the groundwork for blame for when their season goes south.

1342
01:12:22,640 --> 01:12:26,519
Speaker 2: That's an excellent point, but I try to intimate that

1343
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 2: you might have done a better job than I did, Fred,

1344
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:33,439
Speaker 2: that if this starts to go south, they're going to

1345
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:34,960
Speaker 2: point to these early diatracts.

1346
01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:38,200
Speaker 9: Go ahead, Yeah, that's all I had. I think they're going.

1347
01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:39,960
Speaker 2: I didn't mean to cut you off. You did you

1348
01:12:39,960 --> 01:12:41,200
Speaker 2: have anything else you want to add to that?

1349
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,240
Speaker 9: I think they'll finished nine and seven. You know. I

1350
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:48,720
Speaker 9: see a transformation and a bunch of the different teams that, uh,

1351
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:53,840
Speaker 9: some people aren't seeing. Buffalo is one of them, and

1352
01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:56,920
Speaker 9: that's who the Jets have to play twice. But a

1353
01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:59,040
Speaker 9: lot of teams are turning into like Kansas City, or

1354
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:02,559
Speaker 9: they're not having high price wide receivers and high price

1355
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:03,280
Speaker 9: running becks.

1356
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:07,120
Speaker 2: Sure they got a rare culture between Andy Reid and

1357
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,400
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes that no one's going to replicate.

1358
01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:12,880
Speaker 9: Xme wise. Yeah, but there's a handful of teams that

1359
01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:15,599
Speaker 9: are following the same blueprint. As far as who they're signing.

1360
01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:17,320
Speaker 9: We'll see.

1361
01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:21,479
Speaker 2: I'll stake out all right, Fred, appreciate your call. I

1362
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:23,599
Speaker 2: know you've called before on the midnight hour. Don't don't,

1363
01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:26,120
Speaker 2: don't be a stranger, and look a good thing about

1364
01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:28,400
Speaker 2: the night. Class never goes out of style. Respect never

1365
01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 2: goes out of style. Like we said with Manuel, we're

1366
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:33,519
Speaker 2: dealing with human beings here. We get six billion people

1367
01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 2: on the planet. I don't know why people do what

1368
01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:38,200
Speaker 2: they do in all walks of life or whatever they do,

1369
01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,400
Speaker 2: but we're not here to judge that. We're here to

1370
01:13:40,520 --> 01:13:42,439
Speaker 2: kind of react to it and just sort of have

1371
01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,760
Speaker 2: a round table discussion. You know, if three people see

1372
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 2: a car accident, they're going to describe it differently. We're

1373
01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:49,799
Speaker 2: all going to have different perspectives and they're all welcome.

1374
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:52,280
Speaker 2: The thing I'm happy to see is that, like I said,

1375
01:13:52,600 --> 01:13:55,200
Speaker 2: class never goes out of style, respect never goes out

1376
01:13:55,200 --> 01:14:01,959
Speaker 2: of style. We can disagree without being disagreeable. Dave from Phoenix,

1377
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 2: is this the day from my old haunt in Michigan.

1378
01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:07,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I don't good, Bud.

1379
01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:11,480
Speaker 3: So I've played a lot of high level co ed softball.

1380
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:15,519
Speaker 3: I certainly understand the difference in strength and speed between

1381
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:20,200
Speaker 3: men and women, but this particular case isn't as simple

1382
01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:23,600
Speaker 3: because you have a person who was born female and

1383
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:28,400
Speaker 3: has not transitioned. So I don't quite know what to

1384
01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:31,120
Speaker 3: make of that. And as one of your other callers said,

1385
01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:33,200
Speaker 3: she has lost a certain number of fights.

1386
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 11: I just think it's interesting.

1387
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:40,720
Speaker 2: Well where here's where it gets confusing, Dave. Why why then,

1388
01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:45,280
Speaker 2: was she disqualified in March or twenty twenty three from

1389
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:49,439
Speaker 2: the IBA by their testing standards. I don't have an answer.

1390
01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:51,120
Speaker 2: I just know that that's what happened.

1391
01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:54,639
Speaker 3: Evidently the IBA has a different set of standards from

1392
01:14:54,640 --> 01:14:55,280
Speaker 3: the Olympics.

1393
01:14:55,720 --> 01:14:59,240
Speaker 2: But well they do, they do. But I'm pretty yeah,

1394
01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:00,559
Speaker 2: well go ahead, you yet, floor.

1395
01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 3: I think it's interesting that people who have never liked

1396
01:15:05,240 --> 01:15:09,439
Speaker 3: women's sports, who fought against Total nine, who have thought

1397
01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:14,080
Speaker 3: that female athletes aren't feminine, are now suddenly so concerned

1398
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 3: about women's sports, and yet they're not concerned about well,

1399
01:15:19,439 --> 01:15:22,680
Speaker 3: let's say a biracial person being asked, when did you

1400
01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:25,639
Speaker 3: turn black. Isn't that interesting?

1401
01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:29,080
Speaker 2: Look, We're not going to solve the world promps tonight.

1402
01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:32,559
Speaker 2: What we are trying to do is get the broad

1403
01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:36,519
Speaker 2: based perspectives from around the globe, literally from enlightened people,

1404
01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:40,360
Speaker 2: so all points are duly noted tonight. We are not

1405
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:42,680
Speaker 2: going to solve the world's problems real quickly, New York.

1406
01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:45,559
Speaker 2: We're we're not going to solve the Jets problems either.

1407
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 2: You have any thoughts on that. I got to move

1408
01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:47,960
Speaker 2: along here, big fellow.

1409
01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:51,880
Speaker 3: So Aaron Rodgers was great in Green Bay, despite one

1410
01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:54,240
Speaker 3: of your callers saying, no, it was his teammates, Queen.

1411
01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:57,920
Speaker 3: The guys won multiple MVP awards, so I can't take

1412
01:15:57,960 --> 01:15:58,599
Speaker 3: that away from them.

1413
01:15:58,840 --> 01:16:01,360
Speaker 2: Question one of the big Game that calling wasn't really wrong?

1414
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:04,759
Speaker 3: He was, no, but but they did win one Super Bowl.

1415
01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:05,240
Speaker 2: They did.

1416
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:08,240
Speaker 3: They did, of course, But I don't know how much

1417
01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:10,200
Speaker 3: he has left. And I know the Jets are in

1418
01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:12,400
Speaker 3: a tough division. I don't think they're going to be

1419
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:15,840
Speaker 3: a lousy team, but I'm guessing like nine and eight

1420
01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:17,559
Speaker 3: or eight and nine somewhere in the middle.

1421
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 2: Interesting. If they're eight and nine, boy, the sky is

1422
01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:24,200
Speaker 2: gonna fall. Dave appreciate it. Next time you call, we'll

1423
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:27,639
Speaker 2: talk Michigan football a little bit. Okay, but all right, uh,

1424
01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:30,080
Speaker 2: this will probably be our last call. We have a

1425
01:16:30,080 --> 01:16:32,080
Speaker 2: bit of a time crunch. I apologize. We don't like

1426
01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:34,120
Speaker 2: shutting anybody out, but we got a great new feature

1427
01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 2: coming up around one am Pacific time. We can always

1428
01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:41,800
Speaker 2: use a kool breeze, you know, on the show. See

1429
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 2: what I did there? All right, Tyler from Phoenix, wrap

1430
01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:47,000
Speaker 2: it up for us tonight. Your thoughts on both subjects.

1431
01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:50,840
Speaker 21: Here's that, Bernie. All right, So I think on the

1432
01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 21: boxing thing, it's really complicated. If it's a trans person,

1433
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:58,160
Speaker 21: I think that that's wholly unfair, and it's it's disrespectful

1434
01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:01,719
Speaker 21: to women's sports because you don't have women that trans

1435
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 21: The men compete trying to compete against men. However, if

1436
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:08,679
Speaker 21: somebody is genetically born like the story day, the person

1437
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:13,920
Speaker 21: was genetically born a woman, but their genetics are just different.

1438
01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:17,639
Speaker 21: You know, sports and competition are predicated on genetic advantage.

1439
01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 21: If I tried to play Lebron James one on one

1440
01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 21: in basketball, I'm a five to nine white guy. Lebron

1441
01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:26,640
Speaker 21: James has a genetic advantage over me is huge. You know,

1442
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:29,240
Speaker 21: even you look at the difference between him and his son.

1443
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:33,000
Speaker 21: It's predicated on genetic advantage, so there should be an

1444
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:35,000
Speaker 21: avenue of competition for everybody.

1445
01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,919
Speaker 2: Well, the one aspect of this that I don't believes

1446
01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:41,840
Speaker 2: come up tonight, maybe break and correct me, is when

1447
01:17:41,840 --> 01:17:44,559
Speaker 2: are we going to see a woman transition into a

1448
01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:46,720
Speaker 2: man or maybe a woman is born as a man

1449
01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:49,040
Speaker 2: and then get on the field against men. I don't

1450
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:52,160
Speaker 2: recall seeing that. So if it's really neat to field,

1451
01:17:52,479 --> 01:17:55,600
Speaker 2: just a thought, don't lose your mind's feet feats so

1452
01:17:56,040 --> 01:17:57,759
Speaker 2: real quickly on the jets there, big fellow.

1453
01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:00,439
Speaker 12: I think it would be.

1454
01:18:00,560 --> 01:18:04,080
Speaker 21: More weird if there wasn't something weird around Aaron Rodgers.

1455
01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:06,720
Speaker 21: Somebody told me one time, once somebody shows you who

1456
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,320
Speaker 21: they are, believed him. Aaron Rodgers has showed us enough

1457
01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:12,920
Speaker 21: times who he is. Did we stop believing him? Because

1458
01:18:12,960 --> 01:18:15,760
Speaker 21: he could behave himself one time. People can pretend to

1459
01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:18,760
Speaker 21: be someone else for a little while, but they will

1460
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:21,439
Speaker 21: always revert to who they are, and that's what he's done.

1461
01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:25,200
Speaker 21: It would be more weird if he didn't do something strange.

1462
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 2: Tyler, that is such a good call. All the calls

1463
01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:30,559
Speaker 2: were good, but man, way to wrap it up that is.

1464
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:35,439
Speaker 2: I know we all it's against a it's against a

1465
01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:37,560
Speaker 2: lot of practice psychology without a license, even though I

1466
01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:39,240
Speaker 2: typically do it on the show ball once a week.

1467
01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:44,240
Speaker 2: But you think about what Tyler said pretty heady there,

1468
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:46,760
Speaker 2: because when Aaron Rodgers was in high school, he had

1469
01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:50,600
Speaker 2: no scholarship offers, his coach didn't believe in him. He

1470
01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:53,200
Speaker 2: had to go to Butte Junior College, then had one

1471
01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:55,560
Speaker 2: shot of cal Then he stuck behind Brett fav and

1472
01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 2: didn't get a lot of respect. So I don't think

1473
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 2: he ever has lost that chip on his shoulder when

1474
01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:03,320
Speaker 2: he always believed he had to do three times as

1475
01:19:03,400 --> 01:19:06,040
Speaker 2: much to get half as much respect. And even at

1476
01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:08,680
Speaker 2: forty years old. Look, things happen to human beings in

1477
01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:12,200
Speaker 2: their lives early on. They don't leave you. And he's

1478
01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:14,160
Speaker 2: acting out a little bit. He always kind of has.

1479
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:16,719
Speaker 2: When we had success in Green Bay and followed Brett Favre,

1480
01:19:17,439 --> 01:19:21,000
Speaker 2: it got shadowed outstanding calls to everybody. If you took

1481
01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:23,920
Speaker 2: the time to call in wait on hold, we greatly

1482

1520
01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:28,599
Speaker 2: whose time has come? Or just more robotics. I know,

1521
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:32,240
Speaker 2: as you root for your favorite team, you've seen maybe

1522
01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:34,320
Speaker 2: a bad spot. You thought that was a first down,

1523
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:36,960
Speaker 2: or you thought the other team didn't get a first down.

1524
01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:40,559
Speaker 2: And by the naked eye, these chain gangs, they run

1525
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,240
Speaker 2: them out there and they measure while everybody waits with

1526
01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:46,600
Speaker 2: baited breath. Well, for a long time, a lot of

1527
01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:49,479
Speaker 2: football fans believe they deserved a better way to measure

1528
01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:51,599
Speaker 2: a close call on first downs. And now the NFL

1529
01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:56,040
Speaker 2: is trying something out. According to the AP, during the

1530
01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:59,880
Speaker 2: upcoming preseason, which has already started, the league is gonna

1531
01:21:59,880 --> 01:22:04,760
Speaker 2: take that's what's called the Sony Hawkeye technology. If it works,

1532
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:06,640
Speaker 2: it's going to replace the chain crew, and that's going

1533
01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:10,040
Speaker 2: to be used to measure whether or not an offense, well,

1534
01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:12,640
Speaker 2: whether or not they've successfully converted a first down or not.

1535
01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:17,519
Speaker 2: I've heard announcers say it many times, this is so archaic.

1536
01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:23,040
Speaker 2: We're really lying relying on, you know, visualization, and if

1537
01:22:23,080 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 2: there's snow on the field, or the fields chopped up,

1538
01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:29,479
Speaker 2: or the spot of the ball is many times an

1539
01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:33,040
Speaker 2: educated guess. So they're in the installation phase for all

1540
01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:38,320
Speaker 2: the stadiums and they're getting this stuff calibrated. And by

1541
01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:42,160
Speaker 2: the way, you know Hawkeye tracking innovation, which has been

1542
01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:46,120
Speaker 2: created by Sony. They've officially become, I believe, a technology

1543
01:22:46,439 --> 01:22:49,479
Speaker 2: partner of the NFL. So I don't think they're ready

1544
01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:53,720
Speaker 2: for full implementation certainly, and they may not be for

1545
01:22:53,760 --> 01:22:58,840
Speaker 2: a while. But as it pertains to players, officials, the

1546
01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:02,519
Speaker 2: football itself. The backing service, Well, it's gonna add cameras,

1547
01:23:02,880 --> 01:23:06,960
Speaker 2: it's gonna notify referees. Remember we talked about the strike

1548
01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 2: zone with the robot umpire. This system will notify referees

1549
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,800
Speaker 2: if this was a first down or not. So apparently,

1550
01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:16,400
Speaker 2: you know if you like seeing the chain crew on

1551
01:23:16,439 --> 01:23:19,760
Speaker 2: the on the sideline. Reportedly, they're still going to remain

1552
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:22,439
Speaker 2: on the sideline as a backup plan, but you know

1553
01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:26,040
Speaker 2: they're they're they're copying the United Football League, which currently

1554
01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:29,160
Speaker 2: implements what they call true True, True line technology for

1555
01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:32,000
Speaker 2: the same thing. So Kevin figures is just an idea

1556
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,519
Speaker 2: whose time has come or you have other thoughts.

1557
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:36,479
Speaker 1: No, I mean, look, the time has come up.

1558
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:39,160
Speaker 10: The technology is there, and we can find a way

1559
01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:41,479
Speaker 10: to eliminate any sort of human error when it comes

1560
01:23:41,479 --> 01:23:43,840
Speaker 10: to certain situations like this, and you don't necessarily get

1561
01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:46,120
Speaker 10: it in situations like that. I kind of equated though

1562
01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:48,920
Speaker 10: to the automated strike zone in baseball, and there's still

1563
01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:51,240
Speaker 10: some kings to work out there. But if there's a

1564
01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:56,400
Speaker 10: technology available that will lessen the the the issues that

1565
01:23:56,439 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 10: you would have with human error, then I'm all for it.

1566
01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:01,280
Speaker 10: So if there's still things to work through, and you're

1567
01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:03,479
Speaker 10: still gonna have a human crew that can override issue

1568
01:24:03,479 --> 01:24:05,920
Speaker 10: if there are issues. I see no reason why we

1569
01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:07,640
Speaker 10: shouldn't go to this system.

1570
01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 2: Well, they're gonna do it here in the preseason. Yeah,

1571
01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:13,840
Speaker 2: And the key to me will not be whether or

1572
01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:16,479
Speaker 2: not the technology in and of itself is an improvement

1573
01:24:16,520 --> 01:24:19,200
Speaker 2: over human error, but how they implement it. It's like

1574
01:24:19,280 --> 01:24:23,599
Speaker 2: for me, Kevin, instant replay, it's starting to it's almost

1575
01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:25,320
Speaker 2: to be played because it ruins the EBB and flow

1576
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:27,320
Speaker 2: of the game. But that's just me. And so you know,

1577
01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 2: here's really the question. Will believe the accuracy, but is

1578
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:33,880
Speaker 2: there going to be a four minute wait while they

1579
01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:36,160
Speaker 2: decide whether the computer tells us it's yes or no.

1580
01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:38,080
Speaker 1: I wouldn't think so.

1581
01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:40,639
Speaker 10: I will think it'd be instantaneous, And like I mean,

1582
01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:44,080
Speaker 10: usually the technology and again you're testing it out here,

1583
01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:46,479
Speaker 10: so whatever issues you have, you're gonna have probably a

1584
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:48,360
Speaker 10: good year or two in the preseason to figure it

1585
01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:50,840
Speaker 10: out before we implement it in the regular season. So

1586
01:24:51,200 --> 01:24:53,920
Speaker 10: I would think those sorts of issues may pop up

1587
01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:57,040
Speaker 10: in the preseason, and preseason games are long and clunky anyway,

1588
01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:59,080
Speaker 10: So what difference than to be honest with you, if

1589
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:00,640
Speaker 10: we're going to be frank, how many people are going

1590
01:25:00,680 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 10: to sit through an entire, you know, four far broadcast

1591
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,960
Speaker 10: of a preseason game, regardless, you're probably tuning out after

1592
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 10: the first half of all the players you've heard of

1593
01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:10,439
Speaker 10: have already played. So I don't really think it's going

1594
01:25:10,479 --> 01:25:12,559
Speaker 10: to be that big of an issue once to actually

1595
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:14,559
Speaker 10: implement it and ready for prime time.

1596
01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, hopefully they will. And I don't think we're not

1597
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,559
Speaker 2: going to see it. Just to clarify, we are not

1598
01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:23,720
Speaker 2: going to see it during the regular season this year

1599
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:25,960
Speaker 2: at all. We're going to see it during the preseason.

1600
01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:28,479
Speaker 2: And I from people I've talked to you, I don't

1601
01:25:28,479 --> 01:25:32,040
Speaker 2: even think you'll see it in twenty twenty five. However,

1602
01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:36,160
Speaker 2: I think it's something they'd like to go to for

1603
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:39,600
Speaker 2: obvious reasons. Bree, you're a football fan. Your thoughts on

1604
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 2: this whole deal?

1605
01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:41,839
Speaker 22: Yeah, I think it's going to be interesting.

1606
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:43,719
Speaker 23: I think they're trying to kind of make it as

1607
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,000
Speaker 23: a short amount of time as possible. I think I

1608
01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:50,639
Speaker 23: was reading like forty seconds or yeah, to make sure

1609
01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:53,479
Speaker 23: that they get it right, which I think is kind

1610
01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:56,480
Speaker 23: of funny because I mean, we all know how machines

1611
01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,680
Speaker 23: and technology works. I mean, you can be everything can

1612
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:01,360
Speaker 23: be low dow and then it's going to go through

1613
01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:03,719
Speaker 23: an update and then you know, then it's like, okay,

1614
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:05,759
Speaker 23: well we have to get the chain gag out here anyway,

1615
01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:07,840
Speaker 23: because you know, this machine's going through an update.

1616
01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:09,960
Speaker 1: So I don't know, that's just that's how.

1617
01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:12,360
Speaker 22: I'm kind of thinking. I'm like, okay, great, like that's

1618
01:26:12,400 --> 01:26:14,880
Speaker 22: that's it's buffering. Yeah, well, you know what if it

1619
01:26:14,920 --> 01:26:17,600
Speaker 22: starts raining really hard, or a piece of hail like

1620
01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:20,720
Speaker 22: you know, smacks the camera or you know something, and

1621
01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:23,559
Speaker 22: then I don't know, you know, so I think it'll

1622
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:26,439
Speaker 22: be for at least for me. I'll believe it when

1623
01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:28,320
Speaker 22: I see it, and I'll think it's a good idea

1624
01:26:28,360 --> 01:26:31,479
Speaker 22: when it, you know, actually makes an impact in it.

1625
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:36,639
Speaker 22: That's a swipe right, yes, So anyways, but that's yeah,

1626
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:37,800
Speaker 22: so so we'll see.

1627
01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:42,559
Speaker 2: So we'll see, Well, the games evolve, technology evolves, and look,

1628
01:26:44,040 --> 01:26:46,439
Speaker 2: the NFL has come a long way in terms of

1629
01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:48,639
Speaker 2: trying to get these things right, and this is another

1630
01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:50,720
Speaker 2: one of them. I know. And Mark, we'll get to

1631
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:54,200
Speaker 2: you in a second. To this day, almost ten years later,

1632
01:26:54,760 --> 01:26:57,400
Speaker 2: Michigan fans covetch about what they thought was the bad

1633
01:26:57,479 --> 01:27:02,479
Speaker 2: spot against Ohio State, and Michigan fans thought Ohio State

1634
01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:05,000
Speaker 2: did not get the first down, their defense held them

1635
01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:07,599
Speaker 2: And it's very debatable whether that was a good spot

1636
01:27:07,680 --> 01:27:10,000
Speaker 2: or not. And I tell you to this day, Michigan

1637
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:12,600
Speaker 2: fans are pissed because hard ball started out zero to

1638
01:27:12,600 --> 01:27:14,599
Speaker 2: five against Ohio State and if that spot had gone

1639
01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:16,880
Speaker 2: their way, to presume Michigan would have beatn No House

1640
01:27:16,880 --> 01:27:19,880
Speaker 2: State in year two. However, they do neatly ignore that

1641
01:27:20,240 --> 01:27:22,840
Speaker 2: Michigan blew a ten point lead in the fourth quarter.

1642
01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:25,599
Speaker 2: So if you don't, you know, want to worry about

1643
01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:28,559
Speaker 2: a spot trying you know, here's a little advice from

1644
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 2: your uncle Bernie. Don't blow a ten point lead in

1645
01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:33,759
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter. But I digress, all right, Mark Ramsey,

1646
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:37,240
Speaker 2: you're a true blue Bears fan. You know you'd hate

1647
01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:39,680
Speaker 2: to see a bad spot prevent the Bears to go

1648
01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:41,960
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl. So your thoughts on.

1649
01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:47,519
Speaker 24: This, I think the slight missing the anticipation of lining

1650
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:50,800
Speaker 24: up the chain gang to come out. That's the first

1651
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:53,400
Speaker 24: part about, you know, seeing them run onto the field.

1652
01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:58,120
Speaker 24: If this situation takes any longer than your example of

1653
01:27:58,240 --> 01:28:00,759
Speaker 24: just trying to explain to us what it's going to happen.

1654
01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:03,719
Speaker 24: It doesn't sound like it's going to be great because

1655
01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:06,960
Speaker 24: I don't understand how they're going to make it any

1656
01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:11,000
Speaker 24: quicker than running from the sideline to the field. To

1657
01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:13,560
Speaker 24: make the point, I don't see how the technology is

1658
01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:15,720
Speaker 24: going to work any better than what's already going on.

1659
01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:18,120
Speaker 2: Well, I think there's gonna be diagrams with cameras, and

1660
01:28:18,160 --> 01:28:21,840
Speaker 2: they'll be lines that you can't see, and they'll be measurements,

1661
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:23,960
Speaker 2: almost like an electric eye type of thing.

1662
01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,160
Speaker 24: Maybe they'll have a little logo that comes up like

1663
01:28:26,200 --> 01:28:28,439
Speaker 24: an eagle eye, and then they'll you know, you'll see it.

1664
01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:31,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, something like that. These are the kings

1665
01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:33,880
Speaker 2: that gotta work out. I mean, it's one thing conceptually

1666
01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:38,680
Speaker 2: to have this thought that you can now you know what.

1667
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 2: It has typically been regarded as an archaic system going

1668
01:28:42,680 --> 01:28:44,800
Speaker 2: back one hundred years, with men on a sideline guessing

1669
01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:46,680
Speaker 2: where the spot of the ball was, because it is

1670
01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,200
Speaker 2: it's an educated guess. I get it. The game's played

1671
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:52,240
Speaker 2: at high speed, and if the referee spots it in

1672
01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:53,720
Speaker 2: the wrong spot in the first place, the whole thing

1673
01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:56,960
Speaker 2: goes out the window. But it's not just the concept

1674
01:28:57,560 --> 01:29:02,120
Speaker 2: of creating technology to try to strive towards perfection. As

1675
01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:05,800
Speaker 2: it comes to officiating, it's the feature functionality. This is

1676
01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:09,760
Speaker 2: then entertainment medium. I hate when they take forever the

1677
01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:12,000
Speaker 2: delays when it when you know, when it comes to

1678
01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:14,479
Speaker 2: the instant replaying football, I know you want to get

1679
01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:19,160
Speaker 2: it right. The first year they did instant replay, they

1680
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:21,639
Speaker 2: gauged it that the referees were already getting it right

1681
01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:23,360
Speaker 2: eighty three percent of the time, and that feels like

1682
01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:25,400
Speaker 2: a lot, but there's margin of error there as well.

1683
01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:28,200
Speaker 2: The problem is when you start to look at a

1684
01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:32,080
Speaker 2: play from multiple angles in slow motion, oftentimes it adds

1685
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:34,960
Speaker 2: to the confusion, and it adds to the perspective and

1686
01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:37,000
Speaker 2: you can often change your mind. You don't know, and

1687
01:29:37,040 --> 01:29:39,840
Speaker 2: then while you know, Rome burns and the players are

1688
01:29:39,880 --> 01:29:42,960
Speaker 2: standing around, you're waiting for a decision. In any way

1689
01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:44,680
Speaker 2: you slice it, fifty percent of the people are going

1690
01:29:44,720 --> 01:29:46,639
Speaker 2: to be pissed off, in fifty percent to be happy.

1691
01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:49,760
Speaker 24: Is this Is this anything like uh and tennis when

1692
01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:51,960
Speaker 24: they try to figure out if the ball, Yeah, that's.

1693
01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:54,160
Speaker 2: I think it'd be very similar to that. That's an

1694
01:29:54,160 --> 01:29:55,680
Speaker 2: excellent comparison.

1695
01:29:55,840 --> 01:29:59,280
Speaker 24: Because that looks you know better than me. If they

1696
01:29:59,360 --> 01:30:01,320
Speaker 24: do that, that might help, because.

1697
01:30:01,080 --> 01:30:02,000
Speaker 2: That's what they're going to be doing.

1698
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:02,280
Speaker 4: But that.

1699
01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:05,400
Speaker 1: Appears to be much quicker than.

1700
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:08,720
Speaker 2: But remember tennis is also much more cut and drive.

1701
01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:11,400
Speaker 2: You see the ball on its own there. But you

1702
01:30:11,439 --> 01:30:15,679
Speaker 2: take a football, I got, you know, a squum where

1703
01:30:15,680 --> 01:30:18,240
Speaker 2: guy's trying to gain one yard and he's reaching out

1704
01:30:18,280 --> 01:30:20,160
Speaker 2: for the ball and there's twenty two bodies around it,

1705
01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:24,120
Speaker 2: and it's a muddy field and it's a great sky. Hey. Look,

1706
01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:28,840
Speaker 2: their intentions are good, their intentions are pure. So we'll

1707
01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:32,280
Speaker 2: see if it pans out. Coming out Chris Purfet's World

1708
01:30:32,280 --> 01:30:35,360
Speaker 2: of Soccer. But first, back to our guy, Kevin Figures

1709
01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:35,960
Speaker 2: with the latest.

1710
01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:38,200
Speaker 10: All right, and Blake Snell of the Giants through his

1711
01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:40,439
Speaker 10: third no I should say, the third no hitter in

1712
01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:43,000
Speaker 10: Major League Baseball this season was actually the first no

1713
01:30:43,120 --> 01:30:46,400
Speaker 10: hitter of his individual career, first complete game of Blake

1714
01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:51,520
Speaker 10: Snell's career, the Giants defeeding Cincinnati three and nothing, eleven strikeouts,

1715
01:30:51,560 --> 01:30:54,559
Speaker 10: three walks, one hundred and fourteen pitches for the eight

1716
01:30:54,640 --> 01:30:57,720
Speaker 10: year veteran. There his former team, the Padres, lost at

1717
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:00,960
Speaker 10: home to Colorado five to two, with three home runs

1718
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:03,680
Speaker 10: and a six to five victory over at the Dodgers

1719
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:06,800
Speaker 10: Seattle four home runs and seven strong innings from Brian Wu,

1720
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:10,240
Speaker 10: they dominated the Phillies ten to two. The Guardians won

1721
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:13,040
Speaker 10: their fifth in a row, defeating Baltimore eight to four.

1722
01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:16,640
Speaker 10: Yankees in Baltimore tight atop the American League East. This

1723
01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:19,280
Speaker 10: after New York failed to take advantage of Baltimore's loss.

1724
01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:22,080
Speaker 10: They failed to Toronto eight to five Arizona Blue of

1725
01:31:22,120 --> 01:31:23,960
Speaker 10: five run League, but did hold on to defeat the

1726
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:26,400
Speaker 10: Pirates nine to eight. You had victories for the Mets,

1727
01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:29,559
Speaker 10: Royals and the Minnesota Twins in Paris. The third round

1728
01:31:29,560 --> 01:31:32,320
Speaker 10: of men's golf is underway, as are gold medal rounds

1729
01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:35,360
Speaker 10: for tressage and rowing. Korea has won Golden shooting for

1730
01:31:35,400 --> 01:31:38,559
Speaker 10: women's twenty five minute meter pistol. Upcoming events of note

1731
01:31:38,560 --> 01:31:41,639
Speaker 10: include gold medal events and men's doubles in tennis, sailing

1732
01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:43,880
Speaker 10: in table tennis. I don't know if I did it.

1733
01:31:43,920 --> 01:31:45,920
Speaker 10: Is there something more obscure that I missed there? Bernie,

1734
01:31:45,920 --> 01:31:46,559
Speaker 10: Please let me know.

1735
01:31:47,320 --> 01:31:50,599
Speaker 2: You gotta cover with my friend Wohll. How about men's

1736
01:31:50,840 --> 01:31:54,479
Speaker 2: Olympic basketball USA takes on Puerto Rico here in about

1737
01:31:54,479 --> 01:31:55,759
Speaker 2: six hours and forty five minutes.

1738
01:31:55,840 --> 01:31:57,800
Speaker 10: Looking forward to that one. We'll see who doesn't play.

1739
01:31:57,840 --> 01:32:00,200
Speaker 10: How about that? That seems to be the headline that.

1740
01:32:00,320 --> 01:32:03,840
Speaker 2: Now, that's a good tease for my final segment tonight.

1741
01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:06,599
Speaker 2: I really loved what Kevin Durant said. You know, Chris Wack,

1742
01:32:07,080 --> 01:32:10,320
Speaker 2: Chris Rock once said, you don't get a lot of

1743
01:32:10,360 --> 01:32:13,760
Speaker 2: credit for doing what you're supposed to do. But I

1744
01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:15,280
Speaker 2: want to give Steve Kerr a lot of credit for

1745
01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:17,920
Speaker 2: the way he's handling things. Just just my thoughts and

1746
01:32:17,960 --> 01:32:20,439
Speaker 2: I'm with you, Kevin. Kevin Durant had some cool things

1747
01:32:20,479 --> 01:32:23,559
Speaker 2: to say. We're gonna get to that. Coming up at first, Well,

1748
01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:27,479
Speaker 2: the men's Olympic team soccer team, it's been that kind

1749
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:29,240
Speaker 2: of year. It's been that kind of decade. We've been

1750
01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:31,360
Speaker 2: that kind of century. Tell me when we've had a

1751
01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:35,160
Speaker 2: great men's soccer team lost to Morocco four to nothing,

1752
01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:39,000
Speaker 2: that's like losing forty to nothing in football. But I digress.

1753
01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:42,080
Speaker 2: Coming up, Chris Pherfett's World of Soccer.

1754
01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:56,760
Speaker 25: The Greatest cools, the thrilling finishes, the international drum.

1755
01:32:58,640 --> 01:33:02,120
Speaker 5: It's all here and from the World of Soccer.

1756
01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:05,000
Speaker 26: Well, Bernie, as we are learning in the world of soccer,

1757
01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:08,240
Speaker 26: you can indeed have too much of a good thing

1758
01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:09,560
Speaker 26: in the sport.

1759
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:11,160
Speaker 1: We will get to that in a second.

1760
01:33:11,160 --> 01:33:12,760
Speaker 26: First off, I want to give a little bit of

1761
01:33:12,760 --> 01:33:15,960
Speaker 26: an update on the Olympics side, on the men's side. Here,

1762
01:33:16,280 --> 01:33:19,080
Speaker 26: let's talk about what's been going on. Egypt is in

1763
01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:22,000
Speaker 26: the semi finals for the first time since nineteen sixty four,

1764
01:33:22,360 --> 01:33:26,479
Speaker 26: going through on penalty kicks. Fantastic scenes there in Paris.

1765
01:33:26,680 --> 01:33:29,759
Speaker 26: But let's also talk about the US men's youth team

1766
01:33:29,920 --> 01:33:32,840
Speaker 26: at the Olympics. Again, the Olympics is an under twenty

1767
01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:38,360
Speaker 26: three event for men's soccer. It is allowed I think

1768
01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:42,760
Speaker 26: three or so overage slots, but most of the rest

1769
01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:45,479
Speaker 26: of the players have to be twenty three years or younger.

1770
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:47,280
Speaker 26: So it's a bit of a youth competition. And to

1771
01:33:47,320 --> 01:33:49,479
Speaker 26: be clear, most of these guys again did not play

1772
01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:53,479
Speaker 26: in stuff like Copa America or in champion I mean,

1773
01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:57,400
Speaker 26: excuse me, a Euros Championship here that went on over

1774
01:33:57,439 --> 01:34:01,160
Speaker 26: the summer. It's a crowded calendar. The US men hadn't

1775
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:04,240
Speaker 26: really scored in the Olympics for years.

1776
01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,000
Speaker 1: That can be measured in double digits.

1777
01:34:06,479 --> 01:34:08,360
Speaker 26: However, that and it looked like they were headed that

1778
01:34:08,400 --> 01:34:12,559
Speaker 26: way again after a rough start three to France in

1779
01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:15,639
Speaker 26: their group stage, a very tough group stage, but then.

1780
01:34:15,560 --> 01:34:17,840
Speaker 1: The young Americans really turned on the floodgates.

1781
01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:20,519
Speaker 26: They scored four to one against New Zealand and victory

1782
01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:24,240
Speaker 26: and then a three nil victory over Guyana actually qualified

1783
01:34:24,240 --> 01:34:27,400
Speaker 26: them for the quarterfinals, which then turned the other way

1784
01:34:27,520 --> 01:34:31,320
Speaker 26: and they got blanked out by Morocco for nil. So

1785
01:34:31,360 --> 01:34:33,040
Speaker 26: it's a bit of a wake up call after what

1786
01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:36,880
Speaker 26: looks like good vibes for the men's team here. America

1787
01:34:36,960 --> 01:34:40,160
Speaker 26: has always leaned on its youth depth, so I'm not

1788
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,679
Speaker 26: going to chalk this up to nothing. It does bring

1789
01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:46,920
Speaker 26: up some more questions than answers as the US looks

1790
01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:49,240
Speaker 26: two years down the road to where they will host

1791
01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:52,360
Speaker 26: a World Cup and have an automatic bid in there.

1792
01:34:52,640 --> 01:34:56,320
Speaker 26: And again, not every eligible player here was field in

1793
01:34:56,360 --> 01:34:59,719
Speaker 26: the Olympics. They played at COPA. But it's still true

1794
01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:02,439
Speaker 26: that the lashes of brilliance that has propelled the under

1795
01:35:02,439 --> 01:35:05,240
Speaker 26: twenty three squad here just really fell apart, and the

1796
01:35:05,360 --> 01:35:08,679
Speaker 26: US does rely on youth players, these guys who will

1797
01:35:08,720 --> 01:35:12,000
Speaker 26: then be two years older by the time the World

1798
01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:15,200
Speaker 26: Cup rolls around. They will be relied on depth, because

1799
01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:17,600
Speaker 26: that's just kind of how the America rolls. But it

1800
01:35:17,680 --> 01:35:20,559
Speaker 26: is also a transfer windows summer, Bernie, it is the

1801
01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:23,840
Speaker 26: MLS season. Lionel Messi wants an injured not in for

1802
01:35:23,920 --> 01:35:26,040
Speaker 26: Inter Miami for the League's Cup. But I want to

1803
01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,559
Speaker 26: hit upon a conversation that actually got brought up by

1804
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:33,600
Speaker 26: Robert Lewandowski, the Polish great for Barcelona, weighing in on

1805
01:35:33,680 --> 01:35:37,479
Speaker 26: a month long and really much longer than that issue

1806
01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:40,559
Speaker 26: that has been happening in the world of soccer, and

1807
01:35:40,600 --> 01:35:44,799
Speaker 26: that Lewandowski claims he has concerns over that the soccer

1808
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:50,160
Speaker 26: calendar is simply too crowded, saying, quote, this season is

1809
01:35:50,160 --> 01:35:51,720
Speaker 26: going to be more tough than before because we have.

1810
01:35:51,760 --> 01:35:53,920
Speaker 1: More games in the Champions League. There are more games

1811
01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:56,759
Speaker 1: in the club, but also national team. We travel a lot.

1812
01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,439
Speaker 26: What he's referring to is what's been going on this

1813
01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:02,240
Speaker 26: past But we have to wind back the clock a

1814
01:36:02,280 --> 01:36:06,960
Speaker 26: little bit because back in late July, European leagues and players'

1815
01:36:07,040 --> 01:36:10,160
Speaker 26: unions went to the European Commission, the Executive Army of

1816
01:36:10,160 --> 01:36:13,360
Speaker 26: the European Union, and a commercial court in Brussels, Way

1817
01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:16,920
Speaker 26: asking them to weigh in on FIFA congestion and alleged

1818
01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:20,320
Speaker 26: breaches of competition law. Now there's been a lot going

1819
01:36:20,360 --> 01:36:22,519
Speaker 26: on back and forth on this legal thing, it goes

1820
01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:25,639
Speaker 26: back several months, but the main gist of this is this,

1821
01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:29,760
Speaker 26: the sporting calendar for soccer has been quite simply, far

1822
01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:33,040
Speaker 26: too crammed. One of the stories we spoke about Bernie

1823
01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:36,759
Speaker 26: is how we just had ten months of uninterrupted soccer

1824
01:36:36,840 --> 01:36:39,479
Speaker 26: and that's really the tip of the iceberg. It's pretty dramatic.

1825
01:36:39,880 --> 01:36:42,559
Speaker 26: Now in these next couple of years, new competitions are

1826
01:36:42,600 --> 01:36:46,679
Speaker 26: coming along. FIFA's own attempt to revitalize the Club World

1827
01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:49,800
Speaker 26: Cup has brought it to a thirty two team format,

1828
01:36:50,120 --> 01:36:52,759
Speaker 26: adding once again more pressure that they've got that clubs

1829
01:36:52,760 --> 01:36:55,440
Speaker 26: have to play that along with their domestic leagues Champions

1830
01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:57,880
Speaker 26: League and the two different and one to two different

1831
01:36:57,920 --> 01:37:00,720
Speaker 26: cups that happen in these countries. That's not even to

1832
01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:03,559
Speaker 26: talk about the expanded format for the twenty twenty six

1833
01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:05,280
Speaker 26: World Cup, which will be going.

1834
01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:06,840
Speaker 1: Through forty eight teams.

1835
01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:10,080
Speaker 26: It's putting more and more pressure on players who are

1836
01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:14,200
Speaker 26: playing more and more months of uninterrupted soccer. And yes,

1837
01:37:14,400 --> 01:37:17,400
Speaker 26: part of this ask to the European Commission is also

1838
01:37:17,439 --> 01:37:20,519
Speaker 26: weighing in on what exactly went down with the Super

1839
01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:24,920
Speaker 26: League so Fifth Pro Europe, the player union for those

1840
01:37:24,960 --> 01:37:29,080
Speaker 26: European players had really some harsh words for the world's organizer,

1841
01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:32,000
Speaker 26: and again this all comes down to the problem that

1842
01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:35,000
Speaker 26: they say that FIFA doesn't really talk with clubs or

1843
01:37:35,120 --> 01:37:39,880
Speaker 26: national leagues before just throwing stuff together. They say, quote regretfully,

1844
01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:43,240
Speaker 26: FIFA has consistently refused to include national leagues and player

1845
01:37:43,439 --> 01:37:47,000
Speaker 26: unions in its decision making process. FIFA's decisions over the

1846
01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:50,839
Speaker 26: last years have repeatedly favored its own competitions and commercial interests,

1847
01:37:50,880 --> 01:37:54,040
Speaker 26: neglecting its responsibilities as a governing body, and harmed the

1848
01:37:54,120 --> 01:37:57,280
Speaker 26: economic interests of national leagues and the welfare of players.

1849
01:37:57,600 --> 01:38:01,600
Speaker 26: No complaints from me there, Bernie. The revitalization attempts on

1850
01:38:01,640 --> 01:38:05,800
Speaker 26: the Club World Cup is nakedly jealousy on the part

1851
01:38:05,800 --> 01:38:09,120
Speaker 26: of FIFA, who has seen the kind of money that UEFA,

1852
01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:15,600
Speaker 26: the organizer for European sport, breaks in with their incredibly,

1853
01:38:15,760 --> 01:38:21,000
Speaker 26: incredibly popular Champions League format. FIFA finally really bent the

1854
01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:24,080
Speaker 26: knee here on Thursday, and they've offered talks with global

1855
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,280
Speaker 26: groups and those in Europe to try to end what

1856
01:38:26,320 --> 01:38:29,840
Speaker 26: has become this three month deadlock and now threats of

1857
01:38:29,960 --> 01:38:32,920
Speaker 26: legal action, because nothing really gets FIFA off its ass

1858
01:38:32,920 --> 01:38:36,880
Speaker 26: and starting to move more than actually giving them consequences

1859
01:38:36,920 --> 01:38:40,040
Speaker 26: to their own actions. But to be clear, it's not

1860
01:38:40,280 --> 01:38:43,559
Speaker 26: just FIFA doing this. UEFA has also been trying to

1861
01:38:43,600 --> 01:38:47,160
Speaker 26: expand the Champions League. That Super League mess happened, and

1862
01:38:47,400 --> 01:38:49,519
Speaker 26: there's still the burning embers of that and we'll see

1863
01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:52,679
Speaker 26: if that comes back and threatens more competition on that horizon.

1864
01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:56,760
Speaker 26: And more importantly than that, friendlies in the summer in

1865
01:38:56,800 --> 01:39:01,360
Speaker 26: America and other places abroad have become massive, important moneymakers

1866
01:39:01,560 --> 01:39:04,719
Speaker 26: for European clubs, and the people who buy those tickets

1867
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:07,559
Speaker 26: have an expectation to see the top stars of those

1868
01:39:07,600 --> 01:39:10,519
Speaker 26: clubs play. They don't care that it's a friendly, that

1869
01:39:10,600 --> 01:39:13,400
Speaker 26: it's over in America, that it could be in Southeast Asia,

1870
01:39:13,439 --> 01:39:16,400
Speaker 26: which has become a growing market for the Premier League,

1871
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:19,920
Speaker 26: just as it has been stateside. Those all add pressures

1872
01:39:20,280 --> 01:39:23,360
Speaker 26: as well on top of everything else that has been

1873
01:39:23,400 --> 01:39:27,679
Speaker 26: going on to make an exhaustive calendar, especially in these

1874
01:39:27,720 --> 01:39:33,120
Speaker 26: even years where players are jumping between international team to

1875
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:36,840
Speaker 26: NASH to their domestic clubs, to those clubs having to

1876
01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:40,719
Speaker 26: play the domestic schedule, to playing Champions League or Europa League,

1877
01:39:40,800 --> 01:39:44,559
Speaker 26: to playing the League's Cup, to playing the FA Cup.

1878
01:39:44,680 --> 01:39:46,679
Speaker 1: Is speaking specifically of England.

1879
01:39:46,720 --> 01:39:50,360
Speaker 26: Of course, it's a lot, Bernie, it is a lot,

1880
01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:53,960
Speaker 26: and it is finally hitting an exhaustive point. We love

1881
01:39:54,080 --> 01:39:58,040
Speaker 26: soccer around the world, but quite frankly, this might be

1882
01:39:58,160 --> 01:40:00,960
Speaker 26: a little bit too much, and much like people have

1883
01:40:01,040 --> 01:40:04,719
Speaker 26: said sometimes with say baseball, you might need to crank

1884
01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:07,519
Speaker 26: it back a little bit. The problem is the almighty dollar,

1885
01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:11,479
Speaker 26: the almighty euro, the pound, whatever you have, is speaking

1886
01:40:11,560 --> 01:40:14,519
Speaker 26: right now and it is just forcing this down the

1887
01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:17,200
Speaker 26: gullets further and further and further, and FIFA and you

1888
01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:19,960
Speaker 26: waifier at loggerheads on who should be the one to

1889
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:24,160
Speaker 26: control these massive competitions and get all this money, and

1890
01:40:24,280 --> 01:40:27,560
Speaker 26: ultimately what it's going to do is hurt the sport overall.

1891
01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:31,040
Speaker 26: Unless we find some sanity and realize that these are

1892
01:40:31,120 --> 01:40:34,120
Speaker 26: human beings playing the sport and they need an off

1893
01:40:34,200 --> 01:40:37,160
Speaker 26: season as well. That's it for us in the world

1894
01:40:37,200 --> 01:40:39,960
Speaker 26: of soccer, Bernie. We'll see you next week again. It's

1895
01:40:40,040 --> 01:40:43,800
Speaker 26: transfer window season, plenty of trade rumors and transfer rumors

1896
01:40:43,880 --> 01:40:44,639
Speaker 26: flying around.

1897
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:47,000
Speaker 1: It's exciting time here. We'll see you next week.

1898
01:40:47,880 --> 01:40:53,240
Speaker 2: There's an interesting irony to that commentary that the notion

1899
01:40:54,240 --> 01:40:58,560
Speaker 2: that soccer could be reaching a somewhat stage of saturation

1900
01:40:59,320 --> 01:41:04,240
Speaker 2: is interesting. We started this bit with Chris prior to

1901
01:41:04,479 --> 01:41:08,559
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving twenty twenty two because that was the Men's World

1902
01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:11,120
Speaker 2: Cup and the USA played England and there was a

1903
01:41:11,200 --> 01:41:15,559
Speaker 2: huge build up to it, and you know, from there

1904
01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:18,920
Speaker 2: we've had the you know, Women's World Cup now now

1905
01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:21,840
Speaker 2: the Olympics and Euros and all kinds of stuff. So

1906
01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:23,920
Speaker 2: it's one thing after another. And you had Messy signed

1907
01:41:23,920 --> 01:41:27,360
Speaker 2: with an American team, and the MLS just growing in popularity,

1908
01:41:27,439 --> 01:41:30,240
Speaker 2: so it's one thing after another, just constant news. So

1909
01:41:30,320 --> 01:41:34,759
Speaker 2: the irony though that before, you know, soccer in this country,

1910
01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:36,600
Speaker 2: we don't even call it soccer. Another country, you know,

1911
01:41:36,640 --> 01:41:41,439
Speaker 2: they call it football. It's just one of those sports.

1912
01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:44,000
Speaker 2: It falls under what I call the Canadian Football League

1913
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:45,880
Speaker 2: syndrome that if you don't know who's playing and you

1914
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:48,880
Speaker 2: don't know the significance of the game, that's what Americans need.

1915
01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:52,360
Speaker 2: We need context and we don't have it, but we're

1916
01:41:52,400 --> 01:41:54,200
Speaker 2: starting to get more of it. So the irony is

1917
01:41:54,240 --> 01:41:58,240
Speaker 2: that Chris would even imply that perhaps soccer's reaching a

1918
01:41:58,280 --> 01:42:01,120
Speaker 2: saturation point. And if that's the case, I don't know

1919
01:42:01,160 --> 01:42:03,160
Speaker 2: that that's a bad thing. And US don't have to

1920
01:42:03,200 --> 01:42:05,800
Speaker 2: hire a new coach. And that is something that will

1921
01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:08,280
Speaker 2: that will be in the news. What it's also in

1922
01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:13,040
Speaker 2: the news is the US men's basketball team. Now they're

1923
01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:15,960
Speaker 2: seven zero, they'll be eight and o. They will, as

1924
01:42:16,040 --> 01:42:19,200
Speaker 2: Kevin would say, molliwap Puerto Rico about seven hours from now.

1925
01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:22,599
Speaker 2: Trust me, they'll molliwah Puerto Rico. And they'll get into

1926
01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:25,519
Speaker 2: the quarterfinals. And I don't think anybody's beating them. Canada

1927
01:42:25,560 --> 01:42:28,120
Speaker 2: give them a thrill. Maybe so will Germany. I don't know.

1928
01:42:28,680 --> 01:42:30,280
Speaker 2: You might it a little thrill up your leg for

1929
01:42:30,320 --> 01:42:33,040
Speaker 2: three quarters. But no one's beating this team. They're too athletic,

1930
01:42:33,080 --> 01:42:38,920
Speaker 2: they're too deep, they're two everything. And the irony is

1931
01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:42,160
Speaker 2: is they're winning, but some people don't like the way

1932
01:42:42,200 --> 01:42:44,760
Speaker 2: they're winning. And and and you know, there was this

1933
01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:48,439
Speaker 2: attempt at drama when Jason Tatum didn't get in the

1934
01:42:48,439 --> 01:42:51,400
Speaker 2: other day. I don't believe he complained, and there was

1935
01:42:51,479 --> 01:42:55,200
Speaker 2: more drama, you know, Joel Eller, Joel Embiid, and I've

1936
01:42:55,240 --> 01:42:58,200
Speaker 2: said many times before they're managing it. Well. I didn't

1937
01:42:58,200 --> 01:43:01,080
Speaker 2: say it. Chub Day told me that coaching an NBA

1938
01:43:01,120 --> 01:43:04,799
Speaker 2: team is like it's like managing an adult daycare center,

1939
01:43:05,120 --> 01:43:07,160
Speaker 2: because they're growing men and they're paid and you've got

1940
01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:11,640
Speaker 2: to manage personalities and egos and win their respect. I

1941
01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:13,840
Speaker 2: think Steve Kerr has done a phenomenal job. They're going

1942
01:43:13,920 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 2: to finish the deal. They'll win, They'll beat Puerto Rico,

1943
01:43:17,560 --> 01:43:19,400
Speaker 2: they'll win the final three games. We have Mark Mdina

1944
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:21,920
Speaker 2: on Saturday night to chop this up. So as a group,

1945
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:23,680
Speaker 2: if that happens, which I believe it will, they will

1946
01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:26,000
Speaker 2: have gone eleven and oh, maybe they had a couple

1947
01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:27,680
Speaker 2: close calls, but they're eleven and oh and they're going

1948
01:43:27,720 --> 01:43:31,120
Speaker 2: to bring home another gold again. To quote Chris Rock,

1949
01:43:32,040 --> 01:43:33,640
Speaker 2: you don't get a lot of credit for doing what

1950
01:43:33,680 --> 01:43:38,080
Speaker 2: you're supposed to do well. Steve Kerr is doing that

1951
01:43:38,960 --> 01:43:42,160
Speaker 2: and maybe not getting a lot of credit. But Kevin

1952
01:43:42,200 --> 01:43:44,160
Speaker 2: Durant stuck up for him. And I really liked what

1953
01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:47,280
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant had to say because it brought us back

1954
01:43:47,320 --> 01:43:49,519
Speaker 2: to reality and why they're here in the first place.

1955
01:43:50,120 --> 01:43:52,680
Speaker 2: We'll have all that coming up as we wrap up

1973
01:44:50,760 --> 01:44:54,920
Speaker 2: am Pacific for you pop culture entertainments fans and Kevin

1974
01:44:54,920 --> 01:45:00,040
Speaker 2: Figures capably handling all of our updates, including all the

1975
01:45:00,080 --> 01:45:05,559
Speaker 2: obscure Olympic sports like men's basketball. Yeah, see what I

1976
01:45:05,560 --> 01:45:08,160
Speaker 2: did there, speaking of that, And by the way, before

1977
01:45:08,160 --> 01:45:09,679
Speaker 2: we get to that. I want to say one thing.

1978
01:45:10,080 --> 01:45:12,360
Speaker 2: I gave out a best bet last week Texans Bears.

1979
01:45:12,479 --> 01:45:17,439
Speaker 2: I liked the Bears catching two points. You saw what happen.

1980
01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:21,760
Speaker 2: The game was called in the third quartercas of rain.

1981
01:45:21,840 --> 01:45:24,519
Speaker 2: So if you're holding a bet, it's graded no action

1982
01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:27,080
Speaker 2: by ninety nine percent of the casinos. And the NFL

1983
01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:30,320
Speaker 2: game's got to be fifty five minutes. There's a bit

1984
01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:31,559
Speaker 2: of a bummer because there are a lot of good

1985
01:45:31,600 --> 01:45:33,960
Speaker 2: trends in the preseason. Whenever a team is laying two

1986
01:45:33,960 --> 01:45:37,519
Speaker 2: points or less, it's a tell of sorts because it's

1987
01:45:37,720 --> 01:45:40,479
Speaker 2: really meaning it's a pick them. And if that's the

1988
01:45:40,520 --> 01:45:44,000
Speaker 2: case the dogs, the dogs cover about seventy three percent

1989
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:45,439
Speaker 2: of the time, and they went out right about sixty

1990
01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:47,439
Speaker 2: three percent of the time, which is exactly what the

1991
01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:50,400
Speaker 2: Bears did last night or Thursday night. But and by

1992
01:45:50,400 --> 01:45:52,800
Speaker 2: the way, Matt Eberflus, some coaches like to win more

1993
01:45:53,120 --> 01:45:55,559
Speaker 2: than others in preseason. We'll get into this on Saturday night.

1994
01:45:55,880 --> 01:45:58,599
Speaker 2: Eberflues is now five and one. If that game would

1995
01:45:58,600 --> 01:46:03,280
Speaker 2: have counted against in the preseason, So we'll get to

1996
01:46:03,320 --> 01:46:05,640
Speaker 2: that Saturday night. Lot's to cover on the show. We're

1997
01:46:05,680 --> 01:46:09,200
Speaker 2: going to dive heavily into the NFL Saturday night, and

1998
01:46:09,600 --> 01:46:12,479
Speaker 2: we'll have Bill Krackman Krackenberg around as well as Mark Madina.

1999
01:46:12,840 --> 01:46:15,400
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the USA Olympic team, all right, the

2000
01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:18,880
Speaker 2: third time tonight. Last time. I'll say Chris Rock once said,

2001
01:46:19,400 --> 01:46:21,400
Speaker 2: you don't get a lot of quote for credit for

2002
01:46:21,479 --> 01:46:25,080
Speaker 2: doing what you're supposed to do well. Steve Kerr has

2003
01:46:25,120 --> 01:46:27,799
Speaker 2: been handling the Olympic team brilliantly. I think his approach

2004
01:46:27,840 --> 01:46:31,080
Speaker 2: to the rotation is to give players strategic minutes. You

2005
01:46:31,160 --> 01:46:33,559
Speaker 2: bench certain players based on who he feels could be

2006
01:46:33,560 --> 01:46:36,280
Speaker 2: taken advantage of. And it's been a sound strategy. But

2007
01:46:36,320 --> 01:46:40,000
Speaker 2: he's getting criticized because who he's benching. But the approach

2008
01:46:40,160 --> 01:46:42,640
Speaker 2: is working and the team is getting better. And they

2009
01:46:42,680 --> 01:46:45,479
Speaker 2: won their first two games by forty points. And I

2010
01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:48,360
Speaker 2: get that Jason Tatum didn't play in the first game

2011
01:46:48,840 --> 01:46:52,200
Speaker 2: and Joel Embiid was benched in the second game, but

2012
01:46:52,439 --> 01:46:55,719
Speaker 2: give it up because Kevin Durant is a guy who

2013
01:46:55,760 --> 01:46:58,280
Speaker 2: has a way the all time leading scorer, men's leading

2014
01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:02,280
Speaker 2: scorer in Olympic basketball well has a way of bringing

2015
01:47:02,320 --> 01:47:07,439
Speaker 2: this back to earth. And I loved his perspective because

2016
01:47:07,479 --> 01:47:10,320
Speaker 2: people think it's ridiculous that a former MVP and a

2017
01:47:10,320 --> 01:47:13,720
Speaker 2: recent champion get bench in the Olympics. But Grant said,

2018
01:47:13,800 --> 01:47:16,960
Speaker 2: quote last game, we had a champion and an NBA

2019
01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:19,479
Speaker 2: All NBA guy not playing any minutes, and tonight we

2020
01:47:19,520 --> 01:47:22,400
Speaker 2: had an MVP not play any minutes, but they didn't complain.

2021
01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:25,160
Speaker 2: We had guys who stepped up and fiel those roles perfectly.

2022
01:47:25,920 --> 01:47:29,400
Speaker 2: The idea is to win the game, herm Edwards. You

2023
01:47:29,439 --> 01:47:33,479
Speaker 2: play to win the game. And Kerr has capably said

2024
01:47:33,479 --> 01:47:35,560
Speaker 2: We're going to leave all the NBA drama back in

2025
01:47:35,600 --> 01:47:39,120
Speaker 2: the United States, and it's yet to be seen if

2026
01:47:39,200 --> 01:47:42,040
Speaker 2: Kerr continues this approach of benching certain players to avoid

2027
01:47:42,200 --> 01:47:45,840
Speaker 2: favorable matchups. And as Kevin said earlier, the thing we're

2028
01:47:45,880 --> 01:47:48,320
Speaker 2: watching now is not who plays, but who doesn't play,

2029
01:47:48,400 --> 01:47:50,800
Speaker 2: because it is in fact the story. But I do

2030
01:47:50,840 --> 01:47:54,640
Speaker 2: think Kevin Durant brought it home ever so nicely. I

2031
01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:59,400
Speaker 2: expect the USA team to cruise against Puerto Rico later

2032
01:47:59,479 --> 01:48:01,960
Speaker 2: on the morning. It's gonna do it for the Bernie

2033
01:48:01,960 --> 01:48:05,880
Speaker 2: Frattle Show back on these airwaves Saturday night, eleven pm

2034
01:48:05,960 --> 01:48:08,479
Speaker 2: Pacific time. We got a lot of stuff to get to,

2035
01:48:09,120 --> 01:48:12,040
Speaker 2: including mil Tucker's lawsuit. You don't want to hear about that. Meantime,

2036
01:48:12,560 --> 01:48:16,639
Speaker 2: keep it locked up. Next The Fellas on Fox Sports Radio,
