It's like 45 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 3: in football where they call the guy didn't wasn't the players, 46 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 3: wasn't something.

I thought it was awesome. 176 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: I hated that the US loss, which got overtime. And 177 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: by the way, I've wored two shows this weekend, so 178 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: I've got every promo memorized. I love Ben Mallord, but 179 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: I don't know what he's talking about, and that the 180 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 2: finals didn't live up to the hype I thought I 181 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: was living and. 182 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 4: As he said, that's what it sounded like to me. 183 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: Geez. 184 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: I just I felt like I felt like everything you 185 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: could possibly want in a and I don't know what 186 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: they gave them, a Golden medal type game, ARENI. I 187 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: felt like you got that in that matchup on what 188 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: was that Tuesday night? 189 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 3: Wednesday night now Wednesday. 190 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 4: Night this week. 191 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 2: So I tip late to the good people at the 192 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: at the NHL for coming up with this idea because 193 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 2: it was brilliant. 194 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 4: It was. 195 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 3: It was brilliant, and I'm wondering if it's going to 196 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 3: spill over to the regular season at the end of 197 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 3: the season in the NFL. I don't think it's going to. 198 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 3: But it was, you know, even before it happened. I 199 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: knew they were having a tournament, but I wouldn't even 200 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: fully I didn't even know the four teams. I wasn't 201 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 3: prepared or was going to have this type of excitement 202 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 3: and this type of you know, talk about it. It 203 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 3: was just incredible. I don't even know the players knew 204 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 3: it was going to get this much press. 205 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 2: Well, as we come to you live from the tirack 206 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: dot com studios. Tyrack dot com will help you get 207 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: there and unmatched the selection, fast, free shipping, free road 208 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 2: acard protection and over ten thousand recommended at Sallors. 209 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 4: Tirack dot Com is the way tire buying should be. 210 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 2: I will say, though, and again tip the cap, that 211 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 2: real numeral number one wasn't the call in the Arizona 212 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,679 Speaker 2: BYU game. But I am a little bit disappointed because 213 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: if you thought it was that big of a deal, why. 214 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 4: Wouldn't you have hockey as a topic to talk about tonight? 215 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 2: Because isn't the whole goal of an event like that 216 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: to generate interest and excitement for the rest of the season. 217 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: And yet here we are two days into the second 218 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: half of the season, and I see nobody taking any 219 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 2: time to talk about the second half of the nhlc Yes. 220 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: No, you're right, you're right about that. Well, if you're 221 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 3: asking why we didn't put four nations down, I just. 222 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: Mean high No, not four nations. I mean the second 223 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: half of the hockey season. 224 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: I did bring up that some of the players are 225 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 3: not going to be able to play immediately because they're 226 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 3: so banged up, and sure, could you imagine if that 227 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 3: happened with NBA players or Major League Baseball players? People 228 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 3: would be screaming bloody murder. So I did bring that up. 229 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 3: But you're absolutely right. I don't think it's going to 230 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 3: I said, I don't think it's going to have a 231 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 3: spillover effect to the NHL until we get to the playoffs. 232 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 3: People always seem to get excited about the playoffs. 233 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: We say, welcome back tonight. Coming up an hour or two, 234 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 2: Todd Furman is back with us. We'll talk about all 235 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: the craziness from the four nations face often did you hear? 236 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 3: I'm Sorry'm gonna jump in here ahead, said Todd Furman, 237 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 3: did you hear? And he didn't even believe me When 238 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 3: I had him on Thursday, we had him on the 239 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 3: show and I had to find the tweet the game 240 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: was the most bet hockey game ever, ever, ever, And 241 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,599 Speaker 3: Todd's like, really, I'm like here, by draft According to 242 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: the DraftKings, they had never taken more money on a 243 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 3: a hockey game ever, and they had the most money 244 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 3: on it. 245 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 4: Huh. 246 00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: So, I guess that means we really get fired up 247 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 2: when you put America versus somebody. Yeah, well, I'm just 248 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 2: saying in general, did you not think I realized it 249 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: was Canada? They were funny? Jeez, Louise Man, come on, 250 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: We've been doing this for like twelve years. But you 251 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: put America versus anybody, right, if it's in a championship matchup, 252 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 2: in a championship setting, it's probably going to generate some 253 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 2: gambling and TV interest. But I still think the excitement 254 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 2: over that went back to Saturday night, you know, a 255 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: week ago, I guess eight days ago now, whenever they 256 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: just dropped gloves to start things off. I think that 257 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: and the way that started in the first US Canada matchup, Arnie, 258 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 2: I think that really set the tone and got people 259 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 2: fired up about this. 260 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. People were all over Twitter. Rush sure, They're like, 261 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 3: oh my god, three fights and nine seconds and I 262 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 3: was watching my wife. We sat downstairs turned it on. 263 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 3: We go we're getting ready for the for the game, 264 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: and we were just all into it. It was great, It 265 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 3: was fantastic. 266 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: I am surprised, though, Arnie, I'm a numeral number one, okay, 267 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 2: because there is a lot going on. I mean, we 268 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: had a lot of NBA today. We're watching right now 269 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 2: as the best team in the NBA the game. 270 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 3: I didn't get excited about that. I didn't get excited. 271 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 3: I did tune into the Knicks and the Celtics, and 272 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 3: maybe that put me in the sour mood. But we 273 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 3: had a full day of NBA, that's right. Not too 274 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 3: many games were close, to be honest. 275 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and well, and that's a good lead into the 276 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: fact that you have the number one story the Lakers game. 277 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 3: From last night. Yes, yes, not the Calves winning. 278 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: And I guess what you could hypothetically say, Calves Grizzlies 279 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 2: could be considered a finals preview based on where both 280 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: teams are ranked are seated right now, This could technically 281 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 2: be two teams that can play for the title. Nothing 282 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 2: on the nothing on the Warriors Mavericks game, even though 283 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 2: that was a blow, Nothing on your nick sucking today. 284 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 3: But I think, well, I did put Towns getting hurt. 285 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: I did tweet about that though. That upset me. 286 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, because you tweeted me too to let me 287 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 4: know that the season. 288 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 2: Was exactly But with that in mind, what you still 289 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 2: feel a little something about the way the Lakers looked 290 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: last night? 291 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 5: Yeah? 292 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 3: You know the reason I put that down is because 293 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 3: I was on with VJ and he was kind of 294 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 3: papooing me when I said, you know, this is a 295 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 3: different Laker team. Look at what they're doing. They went 296 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 3: into Denver. Denverd won nine games in a row. It 297 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 3: wasn't like there's some slotch teams. They haven't won Denver 298 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 3: in three years. And they have a guy on their 299 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 3: team that they've only played what two or three games with? Right, 300 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 3: or the second game? I think, yeah, that was the 301 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 3: second game, so. 302 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: All that well, yeah it was a third game since 303 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 2: they acquired a bit second that he played because he 304 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 2: didn't play that Trailblazer, Right, you're right. 305 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 3: I mean all that aside. I mean, what a run 306 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 3: they had, and they destroyed them, and I'm thinking they 307 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 3: could actually make a run for the second seed in 308 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 3: the Western Conference. That's how close it is. And I 309 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 3: think when the season ends, they'll end up getting there. 310 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 3: I mean, I think Luca is going to be a 311 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 3: good fit when they figure out how to go ahead 312 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,079 Speaker 3: and play with him. Lebron's got to be unselfish and 313 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 3: and dished the ball to him more. Luca is standing 314 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 3: around a little bit, But Luca loves shooting those trees, 315 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 3: and he'll get a lot more threes playing with Lebron. 316 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 4: Add a lot more open looks. 317 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: When Arnie says the Lakers are within striking distance of 318 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,839 Speaker 2: the two seed, keep this in mind. Oklahoma City is 319 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: going to be the one seed in the West. I mean, 320 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: I know that this game that they were up to 321 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 2: Sagua was at eighteen or nineteen at one point in 322 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 2: the first half. Now it's a five point Minnesota lead, 323 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 2: and they might lose tonight. I don't know, but Oklahoma 324 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 2: City is going to be the one seed. You know, 325 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: barring Shay Gilges, Alexander getting hurt or Jada getting hurt, 326 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 2: they're in a pretty good spot to be number one 327 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 2: overall in the West. But number two is basically a 328 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 2: tie between the Grizzlies and the Nuggets. At thirty seven 329 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 2: and twenty thirty seven wins twenty losses, for both teams. 330 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 3: And then there's the Lakers, just two games back, thirty. 331 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: Four and twenty one one in the lost column, three 332 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 2: in the win columns. 333 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 4: What two and a half? I guess total? You would say, 334 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 4: I mean, Arnie, that's that's doable. 335 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 3: Oh, very doable. But they have a very tough stretch 336 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 3: coming up. That was before the Denver game. They got 337 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 3: the victory there. I saw Lebron had to tweet that out. 338 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 3: We can rip him for that a little bit later 339 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 3: on complaining about how tough the schedule is going to be. 340 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 3: If they get through the next five games and maybe 341 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 3: go five hundred, they could make a run down the 342 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 3: end of the season and probably get that number two seed. 343 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: So you're a believer that there's only three true championship 344 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 2: contenders right now? 345 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 4: Is that what you're thinking? 346 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 3: Well, you know what I've always said about Cleveland and 347 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 3: Oklahoma City. You always get mad at me. We don't 348 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 3: want to see them in the finals. 349 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 4: But that doesn't either not contenders. 350 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: No, that does. 351 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 4: Certainly. 352 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 3: I like Oklahoma City a lot more than I like Cleveland. 353 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 3: I think it's those two in Boston and that's really it. 354 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 3: I don't think Denver's going to be able to make 355 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 3: a run. I mean, yeah, I say the Lakers, but 356 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 3: right now it's Oklahoma City, Cleveland, and Boston. Those three teams. 357 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 3: Nobody else, even my Knicks, are very disappointing against top 358 00:14:56,760 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 3: teams Owen seven against Boston, Cleveland and Oklahoma City. You 359 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 3: can't expect them to win a championship when they when 360 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 3: they play Owen seven ball against the top teams. 361 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 2: So you're willing to say you think the Lakers can 362 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: move up to two in the US, but you're not 363 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 2: ready to put him in position to where they could 364 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 2: surpass okay See or be in that mix. 365 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 3: No, they're not going to surpass okay See. 366 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 4: Right right. 367 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 3: I think they could be in the mix, you know, 368 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 3: maybe in another three or four weeks when they get 369 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 3: along with luc a little bit more. Look, I know 370 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: Olhom City's played well, but it's gonna take the Lakers 371 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 3: a little bit more time. I'm curious to see what 372 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 3: they're gonna look like in the next five games that 373 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 3: are really tough. I love the way they looked against Denver. 374 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna put poo it because, like I said, 375 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 3: Denver won nine in a row and the Lakers had 376 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 3: lost three years straight in Denver, and they had a 377 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 3: really good victory in this one. 378 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: Same team, by the way, the Lakers that lost their 379 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 2: first game after the All Star Break to Charlotte. Same 380 00:15:54,320 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 2: Charlotte team that lost by fifty a while. All right, 381 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: we got big football news, so anything else NBA Arnie 382 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 2: before we put a bow on this opening segment here 383 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports. 384 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 3: Radio, just disappointed with today's game. Like I said, not 385 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 3: a lot of close games. Usually days like this, I'd 386 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 3: be all in, been sitting in front of the TV, 387 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 3: first game, all off the necks of the Celtics, and 388 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 3: I have two TVs going, and I'd be flipping around 389 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 3: and this would be such a great day for me, 390 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 3: And I was like, I just I don't know, man, 391 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 3: I just didn't get into it. Maybe because the Knicks 392 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 3: game was a blot or whatever it is. It just 393 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 3: didn't have that feeling. I don't know what it was, Chris. 394 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 3: It was just missing something. 395 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: All right. 396 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 2: It's really getting good between the Thunder and the Timberwolves 397 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 2: right now. They're seven twenty six to go in the 398 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 2: third quarter, Minnesota up seventy nine, seventy eight. They have 399 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: the basketball Deshager will be all over it, keeping you updated. 400 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 2: But ladies and gentlemen, we have a quarterback move in 401 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 2: the works that is epic, and Arnie, you phrased it 402 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 2: in a way that I'm curious why you phrased it 403 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 2: that way.

Yeah, I know, to shop himself 451 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 2: around insinuates to me that you feel like the Rams 452 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 2: are trying to get rid of him. 453 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: I don't think the Rams want him back. 454 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 4: I think, why would you put down that he was 455 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 4: told to. 456 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 3: Do that, and that's exactly why the Rams don't want 457 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 3: him back. And said, go ahead and find yourself somebody 458 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 3: else to go ahead and pay you and we'll trade 459 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 3: you there. 460 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 4: But you just said you don't think the Rams want 461 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 4: him gone? 462 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I said they don't want him back. I'm 463 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 3: so oh, okay, okay, Yeah, they don't want him back. 464 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 3: And they said go ahead. You know I equated to this. 465 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 3: I know everybody's saying, well, they just want him to 466 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 3: shop around. When he finds what he's worth, the Rams 467 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 3: will come to him and they'll sign him. 468 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 4: And ever happened in the history ever? 469 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I said, you know that, that's like having 470 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 3: a wife and she says to you, I want to 471 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 3: stay married, but you don't mind if I sign up 472 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 3: on Tinder too, also that doesn't bother you. That's the 473 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 3: same thing. I think where there's smoke, there's fire. And 474 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 3: I really think that the Rams want to move on 475 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 3: from him, They want to move on from Cooper Cup. 476 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 3: They want to get themselves a younger quarterback. I think 477 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford would do himself a favor and find himself 478 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 3: another team, But he wants to stay in Los Angeles. 479 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,159 Speaker 3: I think that's the problem. Enjoys it there. I'd be 480 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 3: looking where I can get my final two or three 481 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 3: years and and collecked my money because he's not going 482 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 3: to get it from the Ram. 483 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 4: Well, he's he's got two years left on his deal 484 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 4: with the Rams. 485 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 3: I don't think it's guaranteed. I'm not good. You have 486 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 3: to double check that. 487 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 4: It's got two years and it's a fifty million dollars that. 488 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 3: It okay because I somebody brought up that didn't even 489 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 3: have this year guaranteed. 490 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 2: But go ahead, he absolutely does. Why why would they 491 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 2: tell him to go shop round and uh. 492 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 3: They don't want to give him. Yeah, they don't want 493 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 3: to go ahead and extend it. He wants it extended. 494 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 2: He's got four mil guarantee this year.

I'm sorry, no, but 497 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: you're wrong. 498 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 4: I don't get this from any angle. 499 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 3: Arnie. 500 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 2: We talked about it all week and on our Friday 501 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 2: night show and I filled in for Bernie last night. 502 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 4: It just make it make sense? 503 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 2: Did you hear what Daris Slay said the Philadelphia Eagles Corner. 504 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: He's one of eight thousand people now in sports that 505 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 2: have a podcast, and so he said, the team that 506 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 2: they thought had him and the team that could have 507 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 2: beat the Eagles. 508 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 4: Were the Rams? Right? 509 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 2: And what kept the Rams for beating the Eagles? Sure 510 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: as heck? Wasn't Matt Stafford in the offense? They couldn't 511 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 2: stop the run. So why if you're the Rams in 512 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 2: a time where there's you know, there's some vulnerability in 513 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 2: the NFC West, right, we don't know what the Niners 514 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 2: are gonna be Seahawks. You know he stove Geno Smith 515 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 2: kind of middling there, and I don't know if Kyler 516 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 2: and Arizona is ever going to take that next step. 517 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 4: Why if you're the Rams, would. 518 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 2: You say, all right, let's go get a new young 519 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 2: quarterback Whenever you don't have that pick in the draft 520 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: to where you know you could get one of the 521 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 2: top quarterbacks cam Wardershood or Sanders in this app I mean, 522 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 2: and if Aaron Rodgers is the alleged Bridge quarterback, why 523 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,199 Speaker 2: would you want that over Matt Stafford Because it's not 524 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 2: like Aaron Rodgers is going to be cheap either. 525 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 3: I agree with you one hundred percent on that. You 526 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 3: know you went through that kind of fast. Could you 527 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 3: back up and tell me what the guarantee was for 528 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 3: this year and next year? 529 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 2: Four mil guarante? He has two seasons left on the 530 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 2: extension that he had four mil guarantee this year and 531 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 2: then none in twenty twenty six. How about he wrote 532 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: he reworked because he reworked the contract to help the 533 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: team get out of salary cap. 534 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 3: Hell, so the team can get rid of him by 535 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 3: giving him four million dollars? 536 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 4: Is that? 537 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 3: What is that the way I read that? 538 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 2: Or well, that's just the guaranteed money that he has 539 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 2: on the books, right, So if I'm understanding correctly, Let's 540 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 2: see here thespowtrack dot com and I'm sure to Sega 541 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 2: is all over this as well, but spowtrack has him 542 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: at a base salary still of twenty three MILI for 543 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, and he restructured, so he got four mil. 544 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 2: He gets a four millionster bonus, but he's still a 545 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 2: forty nine point six million dollar cap Wow. 546 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 3: So I see. So they can't cut him because they 547 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 3: don't want to be the big hit against the cap. 548 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 3: So they're trying to work out a deal or they're 549 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 3: letting him find the deal. Salary wise, it's not much. 550 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 3: It's the cap hit that's destroying them. So I see 551 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: the situation and the fact that he only gets four 552 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 3: million guarantees zero the following year. That's the reason why 553 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 3: he's asking for the for the guaranteed money, but the 554 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 3: RAMS just won't give it to them. They're saying no. 555 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, and keep in mind, keep in mind he worked 556 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 2: this to where he helped out the Rams. He did 557 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 2: this in a way that he helped out the Rams. 558 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 2: So that's why I find weird. If it as you 559 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 2: put them, telling him, hey, go find something, that'd be 560 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 2: shocking to me. 561 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 3: I just I can't fathom the right That doesn't sound 562 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 3: the way to do good business by telling your big 563 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 3: star and quarterback to go find somebody that will give 564 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 3: you more money than come back to us and tell 565 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 3: us what they said. That doesn't sound the way to 566 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 3: do business, Chris, I don't understand. 567 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 2: Now there's another angle to this, and that is who 568 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 2: could be interested. We'll dive into that when we come back. First, 569 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 2: Steve Seger is in the house and he's got an 570 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 2: update on what's becoming a very interesting game in Minnesota. 571 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 3: What's going on, Steve, Hello, gentlemen, that it is. 572 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 7: And by the way, yeah, Matthew Stafford's do for a 573 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 7: cap hit of about fifty million each of the next 574 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 7: two seasons. The NFL salary cap for the total rosters 575 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 7: about two eighty for the coming year, So that would 576 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 7: be a sizable chunk from one position as as important 577 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 7: as the you know, quarterback spot is. But of course 578 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 7: don't they make if people talk about, wow, that's a 579 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 7: lot that they have to spend on salaries, two hundred 580 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,199 Speaker 7: eighty million dollars. Don't they make more than that just 581 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 7: in the national TV money that every team gets? So 582 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 7: exactly enough said onto the NBA's late game. Oklahoma City 583 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 7: led by nineteen in the second quarter at Minnesota, but 584 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,719 Speaker 7: trailed at halftime.

Shay Gildjis Alexander 587 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 7: twenty five points. Anthony Edwards got off to a very 588 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 7: slow start. He's up to twenty points now for the 589 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 7: t Wolf. 590 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 3: I'll give Plank the night off. If Oklahoma City wins 591 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 3: the championship. 592 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 7: This is another empty thing.

Is that 730 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 2: a product of just how bad the NBA is? Because 731 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: a guy from Oklahoma City is gonna win the MVP. 732 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 3: Compare him and who would win the MVP? Oh, Michael Jordan.

What I really saying 744 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 3: is I can't believe Cleveland and Oklahoma City are dominating 745 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 3: the NBA the way they are doing it right now. 746 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just terrible.

If I need a quarterback, I'm 782 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 2: giving him a call, wouldn't you rather? And I don't 783 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 2: know what his future looks like. I don't know if 784 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 2: he has two years, three years, four years left, And 785 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 2: honestly don't care. Right I want to see him at 786 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 2: his best. The next couple of seasons. I still think 787 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 2: that's with the Rams. But if you're projecting a landing spot, 788 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 2: am I crazy? If I think the Steelers would be 789 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,959 Speaker 2: just an incredible fit for him. 790 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,239 Speaker 3: I think it'd be an incredible fit for him. But 791 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 3: I think the best fit for him would be to 792 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 3: stay at on the West coast, to stay with a 793 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 3: team that needs a quarterback, and to stay with your 794 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 3: Las Vegas or to go to your Las Vegas Raiders. 795 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 3: I think it'd be that's building steam for some reason. 796 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 3: I think it'd be a great match. I think Tom 797 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 3: Brady needs to step up and say, here's Matthew. We're 798 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 3: not gonna go ahead and just throw you out there 799 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 3: to the Wolves. We're gonna put a good team around you. 800 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 3: I'll bet I give you my word on this that 801 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 3: you won't be out there getting sacked and getting clobbered. 802 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 3: We're gonna build a team around you. Otherwise we wouldn't 803 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 3: bring you in here for two more years. I promise 804 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 3: you I will get it done. And if Tom gives 805 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 3: you his word, I would go to the Raiders and 806 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 3: start there. 807 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 2: If you're the Raiders, though, you're only giving up what 808 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 2: a second? 809 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not well, Yeah, I'm not giving up my 810 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 3: first pick, so my first round pick, so it's got 811 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 3: to be a second or later. 812 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:09,280 Speaker 2: What do you make of the Giants interest alleged interest? 813 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 2: Now keep in mind this is where this all started. 814 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 2: If you want to go back. 815 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 4: Just back up. 816 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 3: Would you rather have Stafford for the Raiders or someone 817 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 3: like Daniel Jones? 818 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 4: Is this a real question? Right? 819 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 2: That's a bad question. What would you rather have? I 820 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 2: mean that sounds insane to me. You you're telling me 821 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,960 Speaker 2: there would be a conversation between Daniel Jones and Matt Stafford. 822 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 3: Stafford's got what two years left at most. I would 823 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 3: think maybe he may retire. I fee can't be in 824 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 3: a good situation. He might have no years left. 825 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 2: But you're asking me if i'd rather have Daniel Jones 826 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 2: or Matt Stafford. 827 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 3: I think Daniel Jones is a better quarterback than you 828 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 3: were making them out to be. 829 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 4: Okay, would you rather have Daniel Jones or Tua? 830 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 3: I'd rather have two. 831 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 2: I mean, if you're going to build him up, then 832 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 2: are you willing to take him in your team? I 833 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 2: don't think you are. I don't think Daniel Jones. I 834 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 2: don't even think he's one of the top ten guys 835 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 2: available potentially this offseason free agency. I think he's gonna 836 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: up being the next Trabisky. He's gonna sign, you know, 837 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,880 Speaker 2: he'll be a backup somewhere and that's gonna be his 838 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: lot in life. 839 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 4: You think you think Daniel Jones is a starter still 840 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:17,479 Speaker 4: in this league? 841 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,479 Speaker 3: Yes, I do. I think he's gonna get another chance. 842 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 3: He's got to go ahead and be in the right situation. 843 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 3: I don't know if he's going to sign as a 844 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 3: backup and see what happens, or if he can go 845 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 3: to maybe another if he team and become a starter there. 846 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 3: I don't know his thinking. 847 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I gotta tell you right now, I 848 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 2: am absolutely infatuated with what could happen here because in 849 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 2: my mind, I think he can really take a team 850 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 2: from a you know, just on the fringe of contending 851 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 2: to being a contender. Now, Like every quarterback needs help 852 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 2: around him, right, this whole idea that, oh, well, can 853 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 2: he do it without any help? 854 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 3: What quarterback doesn't have help around him? 855 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:58,240 Speaker 2: You know, suddenly it's become easy to hate on what's 856 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 2: going on with Jalen Hurts, Right, He's like, well, he's 857 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: got a great team around him, anyone could have won 858 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, right, But to me, Matthew Stafford, you 859 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 2: put him in a situation where you know, you got 860 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 2: a decent coach, you got a good foundation, you got 861 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 2: a good offensive line. I gotta tell you something. I 862 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 2: think that there is a really, really good shot that 863 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 2: he can help be the key to lead a team 864 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 2: of the playoffs. 865 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 3: Then why do you think the Rams are in such 866 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 3: a hurry to get rid of him? And Cooper Cup also? 867 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 3: And I know Cup has been hurt. Maybe it's because 868 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:30,919 Speaker 3: he's gonna obviously you know he's gonna want pig money too, 869 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 3: But why were you in such a hurry to get 870 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 3: rid of both of them, especially when he doesn't have 871 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 3: guaranteed money? And I'm talking about Matthew Stafford. 872 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 2: I don't know, see, but that's I don't know that 873 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 2: they are. I mean, I just that's what's amazing to me. 874 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 2: How could you go from being on the fringe of 875 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 2: potentially playing in the NFC Championship Game to wanting to 876 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:53,280 Speaker 2: move on from your quarterback? 877 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 4: And I get it, there's history here. 878 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 2: The Rams went to the Super Bowl with Jared Goff 879 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,359 Speaker 2: and then they got rid of him the next year, right, 880 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 2: and they decided to move on and realize, hey, our 881 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: best chance to win a Super Bowl is with Matt Stafford. 882 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 2: But to me, Arnie, I just it doesn't make any 883 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 2: sense that they would be the ones behind wanting to 884 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 2: make this move. Everything they've got going for them is 885 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 2: positive with Matt Stafford. 886 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,359 Speaker 4: I don't get why they would want to make the move. 887 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 3: And not only that, why do it to him when 888 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 3: he's only got a couple of years left. It's not 889 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 3: like you have some young gun you want to bring in. 890 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 3: The Other quarterbacks you're hearing about are like Rogers and 891 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 3: stuff like that. I don't know how that's gonna go 892 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 3: ahead and fetch it for the long term. So I'm 893 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 3: really not sure what the Rams are trying to do. 894 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: It would leave a bitter taste in my mouth if 895 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 3: they told me, hey, yeah, go ahead and see what 896 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 3: you're worth and then get back to us. I don't 897 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 3: know if that's the way to do business. 898 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and one more thing on it. If you're the Giants, 899 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 2: are you pushing? I mean, remember that's where this started. 900 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,239 Speaker 2: Colin brought up the rumor and. 901 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 4: We all kind of wait, what the Giants? 902 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 2: And then he brought up the third pick, and now 903 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,319 Speaker 2: we find out the third pick's not really in play. 904 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 4: Maybe it's a second day. I don't know. But where 905 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 4: do where do we go with New York right now? 906 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 2: And if you're the Giants, is this a potential move 907 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 2: you want to make? 908 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:14,720 Speaker 4: Especially when we got. 909 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 2: Two guys that are coaching and I guess positioning and 910 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 2: building for their jobs. 911 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,320 Speaker 3: I go, Look, if you're just told me if I 912 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,680 Speaker 3: could pick any of these quarterbacks that are being you know, 913 00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 3: up there for trades or rumors and stuff like that, 914 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 3: and I'm the Giants, I'm not gonna take Donald I'm 915 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 3: not gonna take Rogers. I'm gonna take Fields. I'm gonna 916 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 3: take Justin Fields that won't come with a high priced tag. 917 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 3: I could build around him. And I've always liked him 918 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 3: as a quarterback. I know people love to knock him, 919 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,320 Speaker 3: but that's what I'm doing if I'm the Giants. 920 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 4: But he couldn't even beat out Russell Wilson in pitch. 921 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 3: I think he was. I think he's the better quarterback 922 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 3: of the two between him, I do too well. 923 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,919 Speaker 2: He's he's one of those I think ten guys that's 924 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,399 Speaker 2: gonna be out there that if he he's available, I'm 925 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 2: gonna take my chance with bringing him in because I 926 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 2: still love that justin fields in my mind that I 927 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 2: saw in the college football playoffs. That's that's my guy 928 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 2: right there. That's the dude that beat Clemson. He can 929 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 2: be my NFL quarterback any day.

But I'm 1006 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,439 Speaker 2: curious to see what kind of happens in the free 1007 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 2: agency wrong with quarterbacks, and then if Kim Ward is 1008 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 2: good enough to where Tennessee says, all right, this is 1009 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 2: our guy, and then the rest of the draft falls 1010 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 2: from there. So that's that's why do I care about 1011 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:55,760 Speaker 2: a guy's forty times? 1012 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 4: No? Not really? 1013 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,000 Speaker 2: Do I have a draft board that someone can move 1014 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,480 Speaker 2: up and down based on what they do this week now. 1015 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 2: But I am curious to see what. We always get 1016 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 2: a good rumor that comes out of the out of 1017 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,080 Speaker 2: the Oh gosh, why do I don't call the commune 1018 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 2: out of the combine right this coming? We always get 1019 00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 2: a good rumor out of it. And you know what, 1020 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 2: you know. 1021 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,600 Speaker 3: I know everybody wants to take quarterbacks, but there's a 1022 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 3: lot of good players that you could trade for on 1023 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 3: top of the draft that aren't quarterbacks, like a Travis Hunter, 1024 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 3: like McMillan, the wide receiver for Arizona. 1025 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 4: That's McMillan. 1026 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, six ' six or something like that. That's just 1027 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 3: unheard of or gent. They're running back out of Boise State. 1028 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 3: A lot of guys you could trade for and move up, 1029 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 3: but they're not quarterbacks to be, you know, to lead 1030 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 3: your team. 1031 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 2: So you think you might see a play to move 1032 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:47,879 Speaker 2: up for like an abdol Quart or a Travis Hunter 1033 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 2: if they slip a bit. 1034 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, because there's only two quarterbacks. So you're really 1035 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,359 Speaker 3: not going to trade up to get one of those 1036 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 3: two quarterbacks. I don't think so. 1037 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 2: Why not if there's only two quarterbacks? And your quarterback team. 1038 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you try to move up and get them nobody. 1039 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 3: I mean, once they're gone, then the only ones' you know, 1040 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 3: then you're gonna trade up for the other guys, like yeah, God, 1041 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 3: usually have like four or five guys that are bordering 1042 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 3: first round quarterback first, the first round quarterbacks out there. 1043 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 2: Here, here's the other thing on it, and I'll just 1044 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 2: you know, we'll hit the tweets next. I there's always 1045 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 2: a quarterback that either does something incredible at like the 1046 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 2: Senior Bowl or the Combine and moves. 1047 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 4: Up a little bit, right. 1048 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 2: I think that Jalen Millroe is going to be incredible 1049 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,520 Speaker 2: at the Combine. I don't know how well he's gonna throw, 1050 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 2: but I know from a forty yard dash perspective, he's 1051 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 2: probably gonna break the record for a quarterback in the 1052 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,840 Speaker 2: forty yard rash. So to me, I think that's a 1053 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 2: guy that you could see shoot up boards a little bit. 1054 00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 2: I still, you know, at this time last year, Oni, 1055 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 2: there were people that were saying, you know, maybe Boonix 1056 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,359 Speaker 2: and Michael Pennix near the end of the first round 1057 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 2: and they end up going in the top ten. So 1058 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if that can happen with Jackson Dard 1059 00:45:58,120 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 2: or Jalen Millroe. 1060 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 3: I think it'll be a first round pick. Is that controversial? 1061 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 4: No, I don't think so at all. 1062 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 2: So if you were to get the over under right 1063 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 2: now quarterbacks in the first round, would you. 1064 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 4: Put it at three, three and a half three? 1065 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I'm thinking those are the three that I 1066 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 3: think Dart makes it into the first round. And that's 1067 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 3: it though, because like you said, it's not a deep 1068 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 3: quarterback class this year. 1069 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 4: It's not. 1070 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 2: But all it takes is one team falling in love 1071 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 2: with someone. And maybe here's my conspiracy theory last night. 1072 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 2: Where have the Rams been really good over the last 1073 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,240 Speaker 2: few years. They've been really good at finding those gyms 1074 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,319 Speaker 2: in the NFL draft. Maybe they fallen in love with 1075 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 2: the guy I am. That's who they want is their 1076 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 2: quarterback I know. And that's the only thing I could 1077 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 2: come up with the Stafford stuff. 1078 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 3: I saw your Raiders interested with a quarterback that's halfway 1079 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,480 Speaker 3: down the list of quarterbacks that are gonna be in 1080 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 3: the draft this year. You want to take a guess. 1081 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 2: Halfway down the list, Yeah, like he's the seventh or 1082 00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 2: e eighth best quarterback, But like Tyler Shuck who had 1083 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:00,560 Speaker 2: a good senior Bowl, uh. 1084 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 3: A little bit better than him. 1085 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,160 Speaker 2: Will Well, of course, because Chip Kelly's there, right, and 1086 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 2: chip Kelly was he offensive coordinator at Ohio State. 1087 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 3: That'd be a good fit. Would that not be a 1088 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:13,480 Speaker 3: good fit for you guys or not? 1089 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 2: I think you know, I like him and he just 1090 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 2: won the national championship. Here's the problem, Marny Whenever Will 1091 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 2: Howard started out at Kansas State his first couple of years, 1092 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 2: I firmly believed that he could never be a quarterback 1093 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 2: and he should move to tight end. 1094 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 4: So I didn't. 1095 00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 2: It would only be natural right for him to go 1096 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,760 Speaker 2: to the Raiders, right and end up showing his real self. 1097 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, Dylan Gabriel. 1098 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 3: Is also a mid level guy that somebody might be 1099 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:40,319 Speaker 3: interested in. 1100 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,399 Speaker 2: There's a lot of there's a lot of players, not 1101 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 2: necessarily draft people, but a lot of players that played 1102 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 2: in the league that are in media now that think 1103 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 2: he should be the third quarterback off the board, not 1104 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 2: the fourth or fifth. 1105 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 4: The third quarterback off the board. 1106 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 2: And I find that fascinating because the reason he left 1107 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,399 Speaker 2: Oklahoma is he didn't like his draft carade, and then 1108 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 2: he got a lot of money to go play for 1109 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 2: Oregon and damn near won a national championship. Right they 1110 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 2: came up short best team in college football until they 1111 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 2: had to face Obio State again. Right, Right, But I'll 1112 00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 2: tell you what, it wouldn't surprise me at all to 1113 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 2: see him go a lot higher than people are talking about. 1114 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 4: I think he's a really good quarterback. 1115 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,720 Speaker 2: He just if Shador Sanders, if you're hearing the rumors, 1116 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 2: aren't he or if it's just the aggregators that think 1117 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 2: he's not thrown because his arm strength will be I 1118 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,160 Speaker 2: don't know, showcased, and by that I mean the lack thereof, 1119 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 2: then if I'm Dylan Gabriel, I'm not gonna throw at 1120 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 2: the combine either. He's an accurate guy, but man, when 1121 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 2: it comes to the deep ball, I don't know, And 1122 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 2: that would be a concern for me if I was 1123 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 2: in his camp. 1124 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 3: I think have we gotten to the point now where 1125 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 3: less quarterbacks work out than more? Or let's you're trying 1126 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 3: to move up in the draft. 1127 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 4: Well, what you do is you wait until you're comfortable. Right. 1128 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 2: You get an opportunity to do it whenever you're in 1129 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,240 Speaker 2: your own practice facility and when you're on your campus 1130 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,040 Speaker 2: and you'd throw to your guys, right, That's that's when 1131 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 2: a lot of guys are throwing now. But yeah, we're 1132 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:06,600 Speaker 2: not throwing and not doing anything at the combine. I 1133 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 2: don't know. I find that. I find that interesting. Do 1134 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 2: you want to hit some of these tweets real quick? 1135 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1136 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,919 Speaker 3: There's a lot they're coming after me, so let's get 1137 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:13,359 Speaker 3: to them now. 1138 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 2: No, no, no, I want to get to the Matt Stafford 1139 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: stuff first. Then we'll get you guys coming after you. 1140 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 2: Go ahead, Colin writes, I can see where the rams 1141 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 2: Pheil Stafford has aged out. So you get a second 1142 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:27,759 Speaker 2: round pick for him and bring in Sam Darnald for 1143 00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 2: Sean McVay to coach. 1144 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 4: Feels like a solid move. 1145 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, but the only problem there is you're not getting 1146 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,719 Speaker 3: Sam Donald for a two year rental. You've got to 1147 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,800 Speaker 3: pony up what four or five years at about fifty 1148 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:38,839 Speaker 3: million dollars a year. 1149 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,239 Speaker 2: So you got to pay the big money. So question, yeah, 1150 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 2: why do you feel like you need a to your rental? 1151 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 2: Who is he your your bridge to? Who is he leading? 1152 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:46,440 Speaker 6: Right? 1153 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 3: I understand that unless yourevin somebody you want to take 1154 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 3: in the draft and you want them to sit for 1155 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 3: the next year or two to learn. Yeah, you're you 1156 00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:56,360 Speaker 3: got to pay him the big money. Maybe you do 1157 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 3: want to do that. I don't know. 1158 00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,400 Speaker 2: I don't know, but I will say if it is 1159 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:04,600 Speaker 2: Sam Darnald and maybe that's what they're looking at, that's fascinating, right, 1160 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 2: that is fascinating. And if you're the Vikings, then if 1161 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,399 Speaker 2: you're worried about him going to the RAMS, does that 1162 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 2: change any of your philosophy and how you're approaching things. 1163 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 3: Vikings got Jacob McCarthy. They got McCarthy, so I can 1164 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 3: see them. You know, obviously they want to move on 1165 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 3: from there. I'm not giving Donald of five year, fifty 1166 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 3: million dollars a year, a two hundred and fifty million plus. 1167 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 3: I just can't do that. I'll find myself a young 1168 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 3: quarterback in the draft. 1169 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 2: A couple of guys here on my idea of hey, 1170 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 2: why not a place like Pittsburgh here was the quick 1171 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:42,640 Speaker 2: rebuttal to that Mallard prop rights. I like Matthew Stafford, However, 1172 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,399 Speaker 2: hasn't he had challenges when he played in cold weather? Thus, 1173 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 2: I think he would prefer not to be in New 1174 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 2: York or Pittsburgh for home games and then Preller forever rights. 1175 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:58,399 Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford would be terrible in Pittsburgh outdoors in the rain, 1176 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:03,799 Speaker 2: slash snow, one in eight record, fifty four percent completion percentage, 1177 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,959 Speaker 2: fourteen touchdowns, eleven interceptions, and a seventy six passer rating. 1178 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 3: Where did he get those numbers? Is that games in Pittsburgh? 1179 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,080 Speaker 3: Is that what he did? 1180 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 2: I think that's in what they had that number up 1181 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 2: whenever he played in the Eagles game when it was snowing. 1182 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:20,920 Speaker 2: About how he is in cold weather games? So and 1183 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:22,680 Speaker 2: he hasn't been all that great, But I mean, I 1184 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 2: would like say, yeah, but there's I mean, in fairness, aren'tie. 1185 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 2: There's really not a lot of great cold weather quarterbacks, right. 1186 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,319 Speaker 2: I think if if you would have your drethers, you know, 1187 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 2: everyone's going to want to be in warmer environments. And 1188 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 2: you know, we are talking about a small amount of 1189 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,600 Speaker 2: games that you would have to deal with weather like that. 1190 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,399 Speaker 2: But the problem kind of to a side of it 1191 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,399 Speaker 2: is those games usually come win in the playoffs, right, 1192 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 2: That's it, and when you're on the road. So yeah, 1193 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:53,479 Speaker 2: that makes a lot of sense from Steeler fans, But dude, 1194 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:55,640 Speaker 2: I still want I would still want to see him 1195 00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:56,160 Speaker 2: be my guy. 1196 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 4: I would. 1197 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 2: I would much rather take a shot with Matt Stafford 1198 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 2: than running back with Russell Wilson. 1199 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 3: If yeah, how much money, Well, they're not paying Russell 1200 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 3: Wilson hardly anything. 1201 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:06,719 Speaker 2: That's the good guy. He was on the one year rental. 1202 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 2: To be honest, they're gonna have to They're gonna have 1203 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 2: to step up financially to bring him back. And then 1204 00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:17,080 Speaker 2: the weed Smoker rights. Three different dudes played Chuck from 1205 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,760 Speaker 2: Happy Days. According to IMDb. I thought Arnie was trolling 1206 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 2: as usual, but it is true. 1207 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 3: Three. I didn't know there was three of them, my goodness, 1208 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 3: many they couldn't find one to go ahead and keep 1209 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 3: into the show. They had to get rid of all 1210 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 3: three of them. 1211 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 4: I make it. 1212 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 2: I didn't. Or maybe they thought, okay, let's bring in 1213 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 2: this guy. Maybe he's gonna be a little bit of 1214 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 2: a better fit for what we imagine. Who was gonna 1215 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:42,320 Speaker 2: be Chucky? Is that what you said? Or Chuck whatever 1216 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:43,799 Speaker 2: his name was gonna be on Happy Days? 1217 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 3: Big ten girl put a picture of him. Oh one, 1218 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,840 Speaker 3: I remember that's the famous Chuck. 1219 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:51,239 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1220 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,480 Speaker 2: I think that was Gavin O. Hreley, who, according to 1221 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 2: this tweet passed away at the age of seventy a 1222 00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 2: couple of years ago. Wow, Hey, quite the deep cut 1223 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,359 Speaker 2: from you tonight, Arnie. But it was impressive how much 1224 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 2: everyone was in on your on your movie pool. I 1225 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:08,799 Speaker 2: don't even I don't even remember what it was in 1226 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:09,920 Speaker 2: comparison to do you. 1227 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 3: No idea, I have no idea. 1228 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 4: I mean it's only been an hour. 1229 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 2: I don't remember what it's in comparison to, but I 1230 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 2: remember it was absolutely freaking awesome whatever you were trying 1231 00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 2: to fit it to. At the moment, I'm like, hey, 1232 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 2: that kind of. 1233 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 3: Works are that's a great point. 1234 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:29,399 Speaker 2: Let's see, we got a couple of people that want 1235 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:33,320 Speaker 2: to fight about the NBA stuff. This is from DJ 1236 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,799 Speaker 2: DJ Missing Link, who rights the talent today is amazing 1237 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,400 Speaker 2: in the NBA, just no defense is being played like 1238 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 2: in the nineties. Also, don't believe teams like the Nuggets 1239 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 2: and Lakers are putting major emphasis on being the top seed. 1240 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 4: We've seen top seeds go down in the playoffs. 1241 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:51,240 Speaker 3: That's a great point. 1242 00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 4: Off, that's an awesome point. 1243 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Oklahoma City and Cleveland are putting a 1244 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 3: lot more into the regular season. Then let's say a 1245 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 3: Lakers or Boston or one of those type teams. 1246 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:08,319 Speaker 2: I found this interesting from Auburn Wildnet the NBA. This 1247 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:10,880 Speaker 2: was after he made arguably the dumbest take in the 1248 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,359 Speaker 2: history of mankind, but he did this is good. He writes, 1249 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,239 Speaker 2: the NBA has a talent problem because of the NCAA. 1250 00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 2: The programs don't coach up these players because of the 1251 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:22,319 Speaker 2: one and done. They're athletic but lack basketball skill. And 1252 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 2: that's true, but I mean, it's it's kind of wild 1253 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:29,479 Speaker 2: because remember you were all over this, and I hope 1254 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:32,160 Speaker 2: everything works out okay with Victor wibin Yam. I hope 1255 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 2: he's able to get back and be one hundred percent 1256 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 2: and have a great career. But even you said, oh, well, 1257 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,560 Speaker 2: isn't it isn't it a bust? If they're not good 1258 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,399 Speaker 2: right away? With how everyone is talking about them, and 1259 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,879 Speaker 2: I mean the Spurs even going and getting a star 1260 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 2: player like the Aaron Fox, even getting Stefan Castle in 1261 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,280 Speaker 2: the draft, right, they still weren't a very good basketball team. 1262 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:58,400 Speaker 3: Right right, right, I mean, we're going to make the 1263 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:00,239 Speaker 3: playoffs and now they're going to shut him down. They're 1264 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 3: not going to make the playoffs. They would love that 1265 00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 3: Cooper flag. I wonder if they're able somehow to get 1266 00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:06,040 Speaker 3: the number one pick. 1267 00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you're obviously taking a big shot if 1268 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:10,719 Speaker 2: you start tanking now. 1269 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 3: But he's himself with Duncan and Robinson, right, and I 1270 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 3: mean you can't help. 1271 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 2: But notice that they've they've they've got the frozen envelope 1272 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,799 Speaker 2: a couple of times and helped them out. And if 1273 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,120 Speaker 2: I remember correctly, wasn't it an injury to David Robinson 1274 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 2: that helped give them the opportunity to get Tim Duncan. 1275 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:32,120 Speaker 3: They went, they went El Tanco and then that's when 1276 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:36,720 Speaker 3: Popovich came back to coach is. Once they drafted uh Duncan. 1277 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:38,719 Speaker 3: They're like, you know, I could come back and coach now, 1278 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:40,799 Speaker 3: that'd be good. I have two guys like this. You 1279 00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 3: think you think we've seen his last game? Yeah, I 1280 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 3: don't think. I don't think he should come back, and 1281 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 3: I don't think he will come back. 1282 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 2: All right, when we come back, our buddy Todd Furman 1283 00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:51,000 Speaker 2: will join us. Got a lot more of your tweets 1284 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 2: to get to. I don't know either, Arnie. If there 1285 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 2: is this all right, that's the place where Matt Stafford 1286 00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:58,919 Speaker 2: can go and he can be successful right away, right, 1287 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if that place jumps out at me 1288 00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:03,879 Speaker 2: in Mike to you and Mike to Todd, we'll dive 1289 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:05,839 Speaker 2: into it next right here on Fox Sports Radio. 1290 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:08,800 Speaker 4: All right, it's that time of the week. 1291 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:10,799 Speaker 2: It's that time of the night when we say illo 1292 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,040 Speaker 2: to our buddy Todd Furman here with Arnie and Plank 1293 00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio. He is back, Todd, what are 1294 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 2: you making of the Matt Stafford talk? And just in 1295 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:21,600 Speaker 2: your thought, I mean, where where's he going to end 1296 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:22,960 Speaker 2: up and where can he make a difference. 1297 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,319 Speaker 5: It's a great question because I think those two may 1298 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:29,640 Speaker 5: be diametrically opposed. I'm not sure what a contender is 1299 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,759 Speaker 5: going to give up for Matthew Stafford, knowing that he's 1300 00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 5: probably only got a year maybe two max to play 1301 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 5: at a high level, so you have to feel like 1302 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,719 Speaker 5: you're just a quarterback away. Meanwhile, for the Rams, I 1303 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:41,920 Speaker 5: think at this point they're very content to try and 1304 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,240 Speaker 5: pick up whatever they can in the way a draft capital. 1305 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 5: I mean, they've made it abundantly clear that Cooper Cupp 1306 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 5: is able to pursue trades as well, which leads me 1307 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 5: to believe that the Rams have their eye on a 1308 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,640 Speaker 5: potential free agent quarterback, and maybe it's bringing a familiar 1309 00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 5: face like Sam Darnold back to lead their offense. 1310 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 3: Any of these free agents will move the needle in 1311 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 3: that you you should maybe take a team right now. 1312 00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:06,560 Speaker 5: I don't really feel like any team is worth betting 1313 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 5: at this current juncture to type your money for that 1314 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:10,279 Speaker 5: long because you look at some of the names that 1315 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,839 Speaker 5: are out there aren'tie. I'm not sure any of them 1316 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 5: are really going to change the overall pecking order and 1317 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 5: the landscape of the NFL. If there's one team when 1318 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 5: I look at the futures board, a free agency side 1319 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,720 Speaker 5: that I think offers a little bit more upside and opportunity, 1320 00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 5: it would probably be the Houston Texans. If you think 1321 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 5: that CJ. Stroud can look a lot more like the 1322 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 5: quarterback we saw in his rookie season, and the team 1323 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:32,440 Speaker 5: is going to have a little bit better injury luck, 1324 00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 5: they're able to acquire a weapon or two. I mean, 1325 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 5: the Texans were a team last season that everyone was 1326 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 5: talking about betting as an AFC dark horse of prices 1327 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 5: right around fifteen to one. That number is drifted out. 1328 00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 5: I think the defense continues to improve, and I think 1329 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,120 Speaker 5: the offensive line can't possibly get. 1330 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 4: Any worse, all right. 1331 00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 2: I got a note Todd, we didn't get a chance 1332 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 2: to talk last week after the Four Nations face off 1333 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:55,360 Speaker 2: ended up becoming the massive event it did. You as 1334 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 2: a hockey guy, how fun was it to see it 1335 00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 2: and how wild was it to see how popular that 1336 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 2: match in the gold medal game was in the betters market. 1337 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,440 Speaker 5: Absolutely incredible. And to see how a lot of the 1338 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 5: National Sportsbook said it was the most heavily bet hockey 1339 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,919 Speaker 5: game in their history since the repeal of PASPA, which 1340 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 5: happened back in twenty eighteen, kind of blew my mind. 1341 00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 5: And it just to the level of patriotism to some 1342 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 5: level that people get involved. Of course, there were other 1343 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 5: off ice storylines that folks were following for the USA 1344 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 5: Canada game, not only in the group stage, but of 1345 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,400 Speaker 5: course the final. And then, like we've seen, when hockey 1346 00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:30,960 Speaker 5: gets played at the highest level with best on best competition, 1347 00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,200 Speaker 5: just by nature of the sport, it rarely disappoints. I mean, 1348 00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 5: you don't get games of that magnitude to typically take 1349 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 5: you passed regulation. And it just so happened that the 1350 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 5: best player in the world was wearing a team Canada 1351 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,480 Speaker 5: sweater and hails from that country was able to get 1352 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 5: loose in the slot and make it count when it 1353 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:49,560 Speaker 5: mattered most. So I think it sets the stage for 1354 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 5: what should be a phenomenal international tournament with a few 1355 00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:54,560 Speaker 5: other nations added to the mix, when we see all 1356 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 5: of the best in the NHL fight for their country 1357 00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:58,880 Speaker 5: to try and win a gold medal next year. 1358 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 3: In to Reno, you're not getting big bets on a 1359 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 3: game like that, are you. Like, nobody's coming in and 1360 00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:06,120 Speaker 3: saying I'm betting two hundred and fifty thousand or five 1361 00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars on this game. 1362 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 1: You know. 1363 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 5: I can't speak to what some of the sportsbooks were taking, 1364 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 5: but when you have a game of that magitude that 1365 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,880 Speaker 5: generates as much buzz, and we saw the viewership numbers 1366 00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 5: that were out there, I'm sure sportsbooks wouldn't have shied 1367 00:59:19,120 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 5: away from taking a decent sized wager, But I can't 1368 00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 5: imagine anyone was looking to try and move six figures 1369 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 5: to my knowledge, as we know in the social media 1370 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 5: world we live in, that if one of those bets 1371 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 5: was out there one of the pre eminent handicapping websites 1372 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 5: and or you know, sportsbooks affiliated accounts would have been 1373 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 5: circulating that kind of information much they could do for 1374 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 5: Super Bowl. 1375 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 2: Todd did what the Lakers do on Friday Night re 1376 00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 2: I guess insert them to the conversation of potentially being 1377 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:48,560 Speaker 2: a team to watch in the West or. 1378 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 3: Do they still have a lot of work to do? 1379 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 4: In your opinion, I mean. 1380 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 5: I think it opens some people's eyes because you do 1381 00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:56,600 Speaker 5: wonder about the tantalizing potential that exists from an offensive 1382 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 5: standpoint between Lebron, James and Luca once they get humming. 1383 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 5: The problem being is when you look at what kind 1384 01:00:02,280 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 5: of road they would have to go through in the 1385 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,680 Speaker 5: Western Conference, I'm just not sure they have enough to 1386 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 5: wear it down the Oklahoma City Thunder, despite having experience 1387 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:11,920 Speaker 5: on their side. But you never want to discount when 1388 01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,760 Speaker 5: you'll have arguably two of the best five ten players 1389 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 5: in the game and one side. It's a star driven league, 1390 01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 5: and that's part of the reason that books have kind 1391 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,760 Speaker 5: of cut their odds considerably. When you look at some 1392 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 5: of the pricing out there now, Lakers as high as 1393 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:25,840 Speaker 5: twenty to one, but I've seen some shops as low 1394 01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 5: as twelve to one. What's surprising about this is that 1395 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 5: Arnie's beloved Knicks are actually a shorter shot. And the 1396 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,959 Speaker 5: Knicks haven't beaten anybody but a JV high school team 1397 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:35,560 Speaker 5: so far this year. When you look at the strength 1398 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 5: to schedule, they've been able to accumulate. No greater illustration 1399 01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 5: with the way they perform today against the Boston Celtics either. 1400 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 3: Now they're ow and seven against top teams. I'm not 1401 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 3: looking very good on my ten thousand dollars bets for 1402 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 3: the Knicks to win it all in Arizona to win 1403 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 3: it all. By the way, if you don't believe in 1404 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 3: Oklahoma City, Cleveland, and Boston, you can get some pretty 1405 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 3: good odds on somebody else out there. 1406 01:00:55,320 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 5: Though, oh for sure. And I think that's where people 1407 01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 5: get intrigued by the Lakers at a price tag right 1408 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,120 Speaker 5: around twenty to one. I mean, the next hovering in 1409 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 5: that fifteen to eighteen range, the Nuggets. I think they 1410 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 5: leave a little bit to be desired, especially when you 1411 01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 5: look at their defensive metrics, but their number a little 1412 01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 5: bit short. And then you get into that next tier 1413 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 5: of the Memphis Grizzlies, the Milwaukee Bucks, the Golden State Warriors, 1414 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,520 Speaker 5: the Clippers, the Mavericks, all teams of prices of thirty 1415 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 5: five to one upwards of one hundred to one. If 1416 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:23,840 Speaker 5: you believe that the Maps, should they get Anthony Davis back, 1417 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:26,800 Speaker 5: can put together an improbable run and be a little 1418 01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:28,960 Speaker 5: bit of a Cinderella story. I think the team that 1419 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 5: surprised most people in the NBA is how far the 1420 01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:34,000 Speaker 5: Timberwolves have fallen off, and at last check, you could 1421 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 5: pick up a ticket on them to win the NBA 1422 01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:38,000 Speaker 5: Championship at about one hundred and twenty five to one. 1423 01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:42,360 Speaker 2: God, I'm kind I'm kind of falling for Saint John's 1424 01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:45,280 Speaker 2: right now. You know, we've got conference tournaments right around 1425 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 2: the corner, and I know they're going to break my heart. 1426 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:50,000 Speaker 2: I finally had to give up on my Illinois dream 1427 01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 2: after they got dropped. But could Rick Patino work some 1428 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 2: March magic here? I mean they're being projected right now 1429 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 2: is a three or a four seed, and they made 1430 01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 2: easy work of Kon down the stretch today. 1431 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 4: What do you think? 1432 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:02,400 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1433 01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 5: Pretty impressive. I mean, Ukon all the revenge for a 1434 01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:07,160 Speaker 5: game where Saint John's one of their building and beat him, 1435 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:08,960 Speaker 5: turn them over what felt like a hundred times, and 1436 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 5: they followed it up with a resounding performance, I mean, 1437 01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:13,800 Speaker 5: dropping fifty in the first half at the Garden, and 1438 01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 5: that place was as electric as we've seen through Big 1439 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:17,920 Speaker 5: East tournaments over the years, you know, in the old 1440 01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 5: days when it was Yukon Syracuse Saint John's fighting for 1441 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 5: conference supremacy. The problem right now with the Johnny's you're 1442 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 5: buying in at the top of the market. I mean 1443 01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 5: their price is already dipped from as high as eighty 1444 01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 5: to one not too long ago, down to twenty five 1445 01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 5: to one with an inside track to win the Big East. 1446 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 5: The problem with Saint John's, and we'll see if they're 1447 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:36,680 Speaker 5: able to overcome it. Don't shoot the ball extremely well 1448 01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:38,640 Speaker 5: from deep, but the way they offset that is trying 1449 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 5: to get to the offensive glass. And when you go 1450 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 5: through their makeup with Rick Patino and the way he's 1451 01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 5: coached his team up from a overall toughness standpoint, for me, 1452 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 5: they remind me very much of an East Coast version 1453 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,480 Speaker 5: of Houston that if they can get through an off 1454 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 5: shooting night, there is dangerous a team in the country 1455 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 5: for the way they tenaciously defend and get some of 1456 01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:58,280 Speaker 5: their second chance opportunities. But you wonder if they can 1457 01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 5: harness that for four games to get to San Antonio, 1458 01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:03,440 Speaker 5: or even for six games and cut down the nets 1459 01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 5: and win a national championship. As far as the top 1460 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:08,479 Speaker 5: heavy nature of the field right now, I mean, Duke 1461 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:12,440 Speaker 5: sees their odds shorten with that dominant performance against Illinois, 1462 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 5: and they're kind of second favorite, just the hair below 1463 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 5: Auburn for that number one overall seat as well. 1464 01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:19,280 Speaker 3: And imagine, you know, Todd, the way I want to 1465 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 3: bet the March madness, you can't do it in the 1466 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:24,680 Speaker 3: sports book. I like, when a bunch of guys get together, 1467 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,520 Speaker 3: like one hundred or two hundred guys and you bid 1468 01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 3: on teams. You know, maybe you can get in groups 1469 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,320 Speaker 3: of two, three, four, and you get together and you 1470 01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,600 Speaker 3: bid on some of the teams and you make money 1471 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 3: as the team's advanced. 1472 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 4: Do you do anything like that or no? 1473 01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,440 Speaker 5: You know what, I've never gotten any of the high 1474 01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:40,960 Speaker 5: stakes Calcutta pools. 1475 01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:42,760 Speaker 3: Oh they're big time. Yeah. 1476 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,720 Speaker 5: Yeah. For the way people go about it, I mean 1477 01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 5: I got a little bit of exposure to that way 1478 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:48,920 Speaker 5: back in the eighties, given what my dad did for 1479 01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 5: a profession back then, and some of the stockbrokers and 1480 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 5: the folks in that pursuit. Yes, that had a lot 1481 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:57,720 Speaker 5: of big wagers and moved and there are some very 1482 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 5: big pools on there. But look, that takes a lot 1483 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 5: less sophistication that exceeds out with the way a lot 1484 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:05,600 Speaker 5: of people go about approaching it because it's all about 1485 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:08,120 Speaker 5: asymmetric risk trying to buy into some of those lower 1486 01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:10,480 Speaker 5: seeded teams hoping they can win a game. Renue, you 1487 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:12,480 Speaker 5: have to have some pretty deep pockets if you're going 1488 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:15,760 Speaker 5: to ultimately win the feal champion and never got involved in. 1489 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:17,840 Speaker 5: But they are definitely fun to follow if you happen 1490 01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 5: to have access Arney, I figured, being the big shooter 1491 01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,120 Speaker 5: you were, you'd run the most prominent Calcutta pool like 1492 01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 5: Vermont that's still itching to try and grow at betting footprint. 1493 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:28,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. They got to get that first win. By 1494 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 3: the way, I'm demanding Arizona get that game overturned then 1495 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:36,520 Speaker 3: over b YU. Couldn't the sportsbook overturn that or what? 1496 01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:38,919 Speaker 5: I don't think they'll overturn it, and it wouldn't really 1497 01:04:38,960 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 5: change the outcome of Arizona closing as a seven point favor, 1498 01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:43,800 Speaker 5: but no doubt one of the more exciting games of 1499 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:47,200 Speaker 5: the day. Caleb Love coming up with some clutch shots 1500 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:49,960 Speaker 5: down the stretch and the unfortunate fall call that kind 1501 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 5: of turned their fates there. Of course, even out the 1502 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 5: season series, and I believe only the second time under 1503 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 5: coach Tommy Lloyd that Arizona has lost the game when 1504 01:04:57,560 --> 01:04:58,840 Speaker 5: they've scored more than ninety points. 1505 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:02,240 Speaker 3: All Right, Todd, have a great week, buddy. 1506 01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:04,640 Speaker 2: We appreciate your time as always, and make sure you 1507 01:05:04,720 --> 01:05:06,400 Speaker 2: check out the Bet the Board podcast.

Yeah, 1513 01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:27,280 Speaker 7: tonight it really was. And I found a brief clip 1514 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 7: early no early Christmas episode of Happy Days. Chuck is 1515 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 7: standing by the family Christmas tree trying to string the lights. 1516 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,080 Speaker 3: Keep trying, Chuck. I went through the whole stream. We're 1517 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 3: just gonna have to do without light. 1518 01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 7: Ah, he did make an appearance. That's a real person 1519 01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 7: and it's like goodness. The actor who played the dad 1520 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,479 Speaker 7: years later gave an interview about Happy Days and said 1521 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:53,360 Speaker 7: the show runner Gary Marshall. He started Happy Days used 1522 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 7: to get asked for a decade after that by studio audiences. 1523 01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:57,320 Speaker 4: Whatever happened to Chuck? 1524 01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,320 Speaker 7: What happened to the older brother? 1525 01:05:59,480 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 4: Gary? 1526 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,600 Speaker 3: Say, well, he's on a twelve year scholarship to the 1527 01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:04,080 Speaker 3: university about. 1528 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:12,120 Speaker 7: So apparently there was one guy that played Chuck just 1529 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 7: in the pilot, which I don't know, and then the 1530 01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:17,920 Speaker 7: regular Chuck of season one, and then that Chuck that 1531 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 7: we heard for a couple episodes of season two, and 1532 01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 7: he just disappeared.

But yeah, 1535 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:36,080 Speaker 7: there is such a thing I found out as Chuck 1536 01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:40,000 Speaker 7: Cunningham syndrome, where a show deletes one character with no 1537 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:44,800 Speaker 7: explanation and then pretends he never existed. Chris and I 1538 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:46,760 Speaker 7: have tried to do that to someone on this show. 1539 01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 7: Two points for lady for bringing up high school basketball 1540 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 7: legend from Milwaukee Cunningham.

That's perfect for you, ni, anyway, 1569 01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 2: let's do it. Yeah, exactly, that's six am Sundays. That's 1570 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:39,479 Speaker 2: the time whenever you might get the Roman numeral rundown, 1571 01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:42,200 Speaker 2: or as Anne Roddy likes to refer to it, four 1572 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:45,599 Speaker 2: am whenever he'll send it. But hey, you had brought 1573 01:08:45,680 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 2: up the note about Alex Ovechkin and you heard just 1574 01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 2: Saga break it down. It's a big deal, right, I mean, 1575 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 2: we've got to get fired up about this in the 1576 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:55,760 Speaker 2: sports world, don't we. 1577 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:58,479 Speaker 3: Yes, we do have to get fired up about it. 1578 01:08:58,479 --> 01:09:00,680 Speaker 3: But it's not getting the because it's still pretty far off. 1579 01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:03,120 Speaker 3: It's what third seven or twelve goals or something to 1580 01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:03,679 Speaker 3: that effect. 1581 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:06,640 Speaker 2: So it's still thirteen thirteen goals away from breaking the 1582 01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 2: all time NHL record. 1583 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, who knows if he even gets it this year. 1584 01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:13,559 Speaker 3: So I still think we're so far away that it 1585 01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,040 Speaker 3: doesn't have any momentum yet. 1586 01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 2: To be honest, okay, fair enough, I did see a 1587 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:19,679 Speaker 2: wild stat number. 1588 01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:21,920 Speaker 3: He looks so old by the way of Vetchkin. Gosh, 1589 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 3: he looks old. 1590 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 2: I every year whenever he pops back out looking a 1591 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 2: little gray or looking a little older, I'm like, he's 1592 01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 2: still playing, He's still around. 1593 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 3: He still doing, He's grease in formula. 1594 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:35,880 Speaker 2: He now has two hundred goals since January first of 1595 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:41,360 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. That makes Alexovetchkin the first player in NHL 1596 01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:45,559 Speaker 2: history to score two hundred or more goals in three 1597 01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,920 Speaker 2: different decades. He had two hundred and forty five in 1598 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,920 Speaker 2: the two thousands, four hundred and thirty seven in the 1599 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 2: twenty tens, two hundred in counting in the twenty twenties. 1600 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:56,559 Speaker 4: And I felt it, and. 1601 01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:58,720 Speaker 2: I felt really old because I hadn't thought about the 1602 01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:03,040 Speaker 2: calendar in decades since like the nineties. I'm like, what 1603 01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:05,680 Speaker 2: do you mean decades? This is the two thousands. Now, 1604 01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:09,639 Speaker 2: it's all new. So in other words, it's it's incredible 1605 01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 2: to run. 1606 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 3: He's on take the four major sports, right and the 1607 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:16,559 Speaker 3: top guys that have, you know, the most points in 1608 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:20,679 Speaker 3: the NBA or the best batting average in Major League Baseball. 1609 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,920 Speaker 3: Ave I mean even in hockey, it was all about 1610 01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 3: Wayne Gretzky. Everybody knew who Wayne Gretzky was. Avekin's got 1611 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:31,719 Speaker 3: to be the most unassuming superstar in all of sports, right, 1612 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 3: I mean, he's not going to get the pub that 1613 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,280 Speaker 3: all those other guys getting the other sports out there. 1614 01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:39,439 Speaker 2: And he's won a championship too, Yes, you know, you 1615 01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 2: can't hold that against him. Well he's never won a title. 1616 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:44,439 Speaker 2: He's done that too, but yeah, and at the very least, 1617 01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:49,000 Speaker 2: probably outside of decent Listen, I don't want to get 1618 01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 2: into the popularity of hockey players because then I get 1619 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:53,519 Speaker 2: mad with die hard hockey fans and I'm a. 1620 01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 3: Casual okay, but too casuals. 1621 01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:59,400 Speaker 2: He's not like the best known hockey he's probably the 1622 01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:01,640 Speaker 2: best known hockey guy, but he's not a dude that 1623 01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:05,040 Speaker 2: you see in a ton of commercials or being marketed 1624 01:11:05,040 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 2: for the league. 1625 01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:09,000 Speaker 3: No. I know, people will never, you know, say that 1626 01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,080 Speaker 3: he's a Wayne Gretzky or anything like that. They'll never 1627 01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:12,080 Speaker 3: say he was number one. 1628 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 2: All right too, since we're on hockey. Two things about 1629 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 2: the Four Nations face off. First, Colin writes, as a 1630 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 2: Canadian sports fan, it's cool if President Trump helped make 1631 01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 2: the Four Nations tournament more inspired hockey, but if he 1632 01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 2: puts tariffs on our NFL feeds, I'm not watching anymore. 1633 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:36,679 Speaker 2: And worse, I'm friends off with Arnie. Oh wow, so Colin, 1634 01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:40,680 Speaker 2: you're breaking up with Arnie if we get tariffs. And 1635 01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:45,080 Speaker 2: then Prowler Forever said the entire Four Nations popularity was 1636 01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:48,280 Speaker 2: a result of political tension between between US in Canada 1637 01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 2: and then booing our anthem. Trump talked gas, they booed. 1638 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,280 Speaker 2: We watched way beyond the actual sport. 1639 01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 3: That doesn't make it the That's not the reason why 1640 01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:01,040 Speaker 3: it's the most bet hockey game ever, And it doesn't 1641 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:04,760 Speaker 3: really explain why they get over ten million viewers. Sure, 1642 01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:07,160 Speaker 3: maybe it brings in a little bit, but nothing like 1643 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:07,680 Speaker 3: that though. 1644 01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:10,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and I like that and the whole 1645 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,479 Speaker 2: But what was a fifty first state thing? 1646 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:14,160 Speaker 4: That was hilarious? Right? 1647 01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 2: That was hilarious, But again, I just I think the 1648 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:20,320 Speaker 2: fights on Saturday night really blew it up, and then 1649 01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:23,280 Speaker 2: everyone thought they're here's what I found make people fired 1650 01:12:23,360 --> 01:12:25,360 Speaker 2: up about game where they think they find an edge, 1651 01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:27,240 Speaker 2: and I think everyone felt like there was an edge 1652 01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:30,599 Speaker 2: to be made on Wednesday night because of the crowd, 1653 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 2: because of the energy, and because of the momentum that. 1654 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:37,599 Speaker 4: US hockey had. Wasn't to be the case. Two quick football. 1655 01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:39,760 Speaker 2: Once we'll get a break and we'll get Steve de 1656 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:42,519 Speaker 2: Seger in here with an extended breakdown of everything in sports. 1657 01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:46,519 Speaker 2: Victor writes, Arnie, is there a chance we ever see 1658 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:51,360 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow our Trevor Lawrence go to the Raiders? 1659 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1660 01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:53,600 Speaker 2: I want to be very clear, this was not my 1661 01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:55,920 Speaker 2: burner account, and I did not ask this question, right. 1662 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,480 Speaker 3: I you know, I may have to do a backtrack 1663 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:00,519 Speaker 3: on the Joe Burrow thing. I used to think that 1664 01:13:01,560 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 3: if you. 1665 01:13:01,760 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 2: Were talking about him being traded way before anyone else did. 1666 01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:07,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like, sooner or later, his time in 1667 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:09,920 Speaker 3: Cincinnati's gonna run out because they're just not gonna put 1668 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 3: a decent team around them. But now it seems like 1669 01:13:12,400 --> 01:13:15,080 Speaker 3: they're trying to keep te Higgins there. And you know, 1670 01:13:15,600 --> 01:13:18,960 Speaker 3: as long as they got Jamar Chase between the three 1671 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,360 Speaker 3: of them, that's a great. 1672 01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:21,200 Speaker 4: One two three. 1673 01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:23,400 Speaker 3: But I mean if they weren't going to keep T 1674 01:13:23,560 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 3: Higgins and he was gonna get he was going to 1675 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:29,000 Speaker 3: get mad over something like that. You could tell, you know. 1676 01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:30,600 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna say he was going to demand the 1677 01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:33,719 Speaker 3: trade or anything like that. But if they keep T. Higgins, 1678 01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 3: he'll be there for life. I'm guessing I'll. 1679 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 2: Hold up on Harry's college football question and the rest 1680 01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 2: of your tweets until the top of next hour because 1681 01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:44,360 Speaker 2: when we come back, Oh do we have a lot 1682 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:47,160 Speaker 2: to get into with Steve the Sager And that's next 1683 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:51,719 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio. That's you're all sarny and playing 1684 01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,599 Speaker 2: on a Fox Sports Sunday. He is Steve de Seger 1685 01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:57,080 Speaker 2: with everything we need to be caught up on what's 1686 01:13:57,080 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 2: going on. 1687 01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:00,600 Speaker 7: Steve, Hello, once again, something on the Gretz record you 1688 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:03,120 Speaker 7: were talking about that. I don't hear others say that 1689 01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 7: should be often talked about. In just a minute, but 1690 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:09,080 Speaker 7: as far as everything being final, now, OKAC did win 1691 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 7: the late game at Minnesota, I don't know. Does this 1692 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:12,080 Speaker 7: music fit. 1693 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:15,680 Speaker 4: I think it fits very smooth. 1694 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:19,200 Speaker 7: Inspired by Chuck Shay Gilgess. Alexander did have in this 1695 01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:23,839 Speaker 7: game thirty seven points in thirty eight minutes, which means 1696 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:28,000 Speaker 7: He has now for fifty one straight games not only 1697 01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:30,960 Speaker 7: scored at least twenty points, but done so playing under 1698 01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 7: forty minutes each time. That is by far the longest 1699 01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:36,599 Speaker 7: set streak in the history of the NBA. No one's 1700 01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:39,120 Speaker 7: done that more than thirty straight game for him. Fifty 1701 01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 7: one straight games, wow, playing under forty minutes and still 1702 01:14:42,560 --> 01:14:44,679 Speaker 7: having at least twenty points. And again it was thirty 1703 01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 7: seven points for him tonight and Okasee is forty six 1704 01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:50,759 Speaker 7: and ten. Cleveland won at seventh straight. Cavs are forty 1705 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:54,720 Speaker 7: seven and ten. Now Alex Ovechkin approaching age forty is 1706 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:55,760 Speaker 7: still sensational. 1707 01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 3: Hat trick. 1708 01:14:56,320 --> 01:15:00,720 Speaker 7: Today Washington beat Edmonton. Ovechkin needs thirt teen goals to 1709 01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 7: break the career record. That is accurate. It's the NHL record. 1710 01:15:05,560 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 7: Wayne Gretzky actually scored more than the listed total of 1711 01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:12,519 Speaker 7: eight hundred and ninety four goals that Ovechkin is about 1712 01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:17,120 Speaker 7: to break. They're not counting Gretzky's rookie year because it 1713 01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:21,520 Speaker 7: was a year before his team merged into the NHL WHL. 1714 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:25,200 Speaker 7: That is wha there were two pro hockey leagues in 1715 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:29,040 Speaker 7: the nineteen seventies. He actually had a few games with Indianapolis, 1716 01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:30,880 Speaker 7: they had a pro hockey team. And then, in a 1717 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 7: Babe Ruth like trade from the Red Sox to the Yankees, 1718 01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:37,200 Speaker 7: they traded teenage Wayne Gretzky to the Edmonton Oilers. So 1719 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 7: he played a full eighty game season as a rookie 1720 01:15:40,439 --> 01:15:43,840 Speaker 7: forty six goals, and they're not counting any of those 1721 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:48,000 Speaker 7: forty six goals. The WHA was in financial straits. It 1722 01:15:48,160 --> 01:15:51,920 Speaker 7: folded in the late nineteen seventies. Four of the teams 1723 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 7: merged into the NHL, including the Edmonton Oilers, including the 1724 01:15:56,640 --> 01:16:00,400 Speaker 7: Winnipeg Jets, the Quebec Nordeks who, as I recall, moved 1725 01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:03,679 Speaker 7: to Colorado, and the New England Whalers who were renamed 1726 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,599 Speaker 7: the Hartford Whalers. There were a couple of WHA teams 1727 01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:09,639 Speaker 7: Cincinnati and Birmingham that just got paid to go away. 1728 01:16:09,800 --> 01:16:11,120 Speaker 3: Cleveland Crusaders. 1729 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:12,840 Speaker 4: I believe you don't got to like to have a 1730 01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:13,719 Speaker 4: team San Diego. 1731 01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:16,120 Speaker 3: It's like the NBA. The NBA when they merged with 1732 01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:20,520 Speaker 3: the Abah. Yeah, four teams, the Spurs, the Nets, Nets, 1733 01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:24,240 Speaker 3: the Nuggets, Pacers, and the Pacers, right, those were the four. 1734 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:29,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, And so this is treated as not what not 1735 01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:32,320 Speaker 7: a merge, but as an expansion club, so they're not 1736 01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:36,559 Speaker 7: counting Gretzky's rookie season, which is completely unfair. 1737 01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 4: The guy was just. 1738 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:40,599 Speaker 7: As good as a rookie as he was in most 1739 01:16:40,680 --> 01:16:44,040 Speaker 7: of his other seasons. And that's about fifty goals you're 1740 01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 7: throwing away. So maybe Ovechkin would have passed him anyway, 1741 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 7: But this is the NHL record, and it's the NHL's problem, 1742 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:53,479 Speaker 7: and I do consider it one that they're just not 1743 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 7: counting the great ones first season. And by the way, 1744 01:16:57,320 --> 01:17:00,439 Speaker 7: once he joined the NHL after the merger, he was 1745 01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 7: MVP of the NHL his first eight seasons in a row, 1746 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:06,360 Speaker 7: starting at age nineteen, and then his first year with 1747 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:09,000 Speaker 7: the LA Kings, another MVP, and he led the league 1748 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:11,240 Speaker 7: in assists I think thirteen years in a row. Whyne 1749 01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 7: Gretzky's easily one of the greatest athletes I have ever 1750 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:18,280 Speaker 7: seen in person. There was a game I saw where he, 1751 01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:23,120 Speaker 7: standing behind the net, scored a goal on purpose, shooting 1752 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 7: the puck at the back of the goalie's leg and 1753 01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:29,280 Speaker 7: it bounced off the calf and into the net on purpose. 1754 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:33,759 Speaker 7: He's court from completely behind the net. He was astoundingly great. 1755 01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:36,920 Speaker 7: There's a reason he was called the great One. Well, 1756 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 7: Alex Rodriguez was at Bucknell today at a Speaker's Forum 1757 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:44,000 Speaker 7: special event. He was there because the guy he's buying 1758 01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 7: the Minnesota Timberwolves with is an alum of Bucknell. So 1759 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 7: they had a thing on the court for if he 1760 01:17:50,360 --> 01:17:53,160 Speaker 7: makes a half court shot, he has a chance to 1761 01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:57,800 Speaker 7: win a Bucknell student some money. So a Rod that Yeah, 1762 01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:03,760 Speaker 7: a Rod shoots from half court and it actually went in. 1763 01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:05,120 Speaker 1: It banked in. 1764 01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:07,679 Speaker 3: He has a good shot. He had a good shot, 1765 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 3: so he hugs the student. 1766 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 7: There's all this cheering. He picks the student up off 1767 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,839 Speaker 7: the court in celebration. They go down to the student 1768 01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:20,519 Speaker 7: section and he did win the student ten thousand dollars 1769 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 7: today with that half court shot. And then in the 1770 01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:26,519 Speaker 7: actual game, Bucknell ripped Army to move into second place 1771 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:29,839 Speaker 7: in the Patriot League. Attendance was two thousand and nine hundred. 1772 01:18:30,040 --> 01:18:31,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna have to get a little bit more 1773 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:34,320 Speaker 3: from ay Rod. I go that ten thousand, but he 1774 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:37,360 Speaker 3: was stuff it. No, but I need something from you 1775 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 3: to a Rod, sorry about that. 1776 01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think he and his buck No buddy kind 1777 01:18:41,120 --> 01:18:45,320 Speaker 7: of have ten thousand just in their pockets share change. 1778 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:48,439 Speaker 7: Last Sunday Night NBA All Star Game was not only 1779 01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:51,280 Speaker 7: on TNT, it was on TBS, it was on True TV. 1780 01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 7: If you add up all those cable channels, the combined 1781 01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:58,799 Speaker 7: viewing audience for last Sunday night four point seven million viewers. 1782 01:18:58,800 --> 01:18:59,519 Speaker 3: It's horrible. 1783 01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:03,439 Speaker 7: Key Canada US got over nine million viewers on Thursday 1784 01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 7: night on cable for that tournament final. 1785 01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:09,519 Speaker 3: Wow, that's horrible for the NBA. Oh, my goodness. 1786 01:19:09,520 --> 01:19:13,799 Speaker 7: Absolutely, yes, that is a correct guess. Yes, the NFL 1787 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 7: had the thing called the dynamic kickoff last year, which, 1788 01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:21,320 Speaker 7: as we saw the season GOLOG wasn't terribly dynamic, honestly, 1789 01:19:21,800 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 7: because a lot of teams were just very content to say, oh, 1790 01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:27,559 Speaker 7: they're going to bring the ball farther out on a touchback. 1791 01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:29,479 Speaker 7: We don't care, we don't want to return, let's just 1792 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 7: kick it into the end zone anyway. Now they say 1793 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:35,479 Speaker 7: that there was a lower injury rate on kickoffs last season, 1794 01:19:35,640 --> 01:19:38,519 Speaker 7: over fifty percent rise in returns compared to whatever we 1795 01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:42,599 Speaker 7: had before. Pro Football Talk notes that the Falcon CEO 1796 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 7: Rich McKay, who runs the competition committee in the NFL, 1797 01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 7: said today his group is considering changes to the kickoff 1798 01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:52,840 Speaker 7: to maybe lead to more returns starting this coming thirty five. 1799 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 7: Maybe bring it out to the thirty five on a 1800 01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 7: touchback instead of the thirty. Maybe have people kick off 1801 01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:03,160 Speaker 7: from farther back.

I have to shift from alcohol to water 1911 01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:40,639 Speaker 2: so I can still be able to talk. That's the problem. 1912 01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:43,599 Speaker 2: I'm drinking my beer while you're giving your take. Then 1913 01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:45,040 Speaker 2: I got a hydrate at the end of it to 1914 01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:47,400 Speaker 2: make sure I can still speak. We we talked a 1915 01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:49,360 Speaker 2: little bit in the open about Luca and the Lakers 1916 01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:49,840 Speaker 2: looking good. 1917 01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:52,200 Speaker 4: Last night. We got into a little fight about as 1918 01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:53,160 Speaker 4: the league is. 1919 01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,920 Speaker 2: It's sad that you have two teams dominating like the 1920 01:24:56,000 --> 01:24:58,800 Speaker 2: Calves and and and thunder aar doesn't mean that there's 1921 01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:00,080 Speaker 2: no talent in the league. 1922 01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:01,080 Speaker 4: Thing arn't he's come up with. 1923 01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 2: But you're phrasing about Matt Stafford, that Matt Stafford was 1924 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:09,840 Speaker 2: told to look for other potential vacancies. 1925 01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:11,839 Speaker 4: I'm still I'm kind of miffed. 1926 01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:14,120 Speaker 2: I know that it's a battle of semantics more than 1927 01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 2: anything else, but I'm still wondering. 1928 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,639 Speaker 3: You think this is a Rams. You can't think this 1929 01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 3: is a Stafford. He's on their contract, so he's not 1930 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 3: technically allowed to look around or his agent's not allowed 1931 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:27,080 Speaker 3: to look around for another team unless the Rams give 1932 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:28,719 Speaker 3: him permission, right right. 1933 01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:33,120 Speaker 2: But if it's not, if you say, hey, they told 1934 01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:36,799 Speaker 2: him to right, well, then that's insinuating that the Rams, 1935 01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:38,880 Speaker 2: they were the genesis behind this idea. 1936 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:40,960 Speaker 3: It is because they have two choices. They could either 1937 01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:44,840 Speaker 3: give him the extension that he wants, or he can 1938 01:25:44,880 --> 01:25:46,920 Speaker 3: go ahead and find out what he's really worth. Those 1939 01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:50,240 Speaker 3: were the two choices the Rams had, So they have 1940 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:51,200 Speaker 3: a third choice. 1941 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:54,080 Speaker 4: You're a quarterback, you're under contract. 1942 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:56,599 Speaker 3: He's not gonna camp camp. He won't come to camp. 1943 01:25:57,040 --> 01:26:00,080 Speaker 2: Okay, well, I mean you're gonna start. It's Arnie. This 1944 01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:02,400 Speaker 2: isn't in nineteen eighty four. I mean you don't go 1945 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:04,679 Speaker 2: to camp. These are real fines out right. 1946 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:06,840 Speaker 3: So and you do what I always said, you go 1947 01:26:06,880 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 3: to camp and then you have the concussion or the 1948 01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 3: hamstring and you got to sit out for a week. 1949 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:15,760 Speaker 2: And teams have been very I think player friendly in 1950 01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:19,000 Speaker 2: letting you come to camp and not practice. And I'm 1951 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,479 Speaker 2: sure the Rams would be fine if Matt Stafford couldn't go, 1952 01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:25,439 Speaker 2: based on the years of experience that he has. But 1953 01:26:25,520 --> 01:26:28,479 Speaker 2: you're telling me that if if it comes down to it, 1954 01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 2: he would be that. 1955 01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:32,800 Speaker 3: No, I don't think they'll have it settled by then. 1956 01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:34,760 Speaker 3: To be honest, I think it will be settled. I 1957 01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:37,479 Speaker 3: think he'll be the first domino to fall out of 1958 01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:40,320 Speaker 3: the ten, eleven, twelve free agents out there that we 1959 01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 3: talk about. With all the trade rumors and stuff, I. 1960 01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,800 Speaker 2: Can't buy that Aaron Rodgers would be the replacement. My 1961 01:26:45,880 --> 01:26:48,360 Speaker 2: mind will not allow me to kind of wrap my 1962 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:51,280 Speaker 2: head around that. I could see Sam Donald, I could 1963 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:53,640 Speaker 2: see Sam Darnald. I'm starting to buy in on that 1964 01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:56,000 Speaker 2: one a little bit. We had a tweet earlier in 1965 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:58,320 Speaker 2: the show that said, of all the teams that should 1966 01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:01,120 Speaker 2: be all in on Aaron Rodgers right now, or excuse me, 1967 01:27:01,160 --> 01:27:03,280 Speaker 2: all in on Matt Stafford right now, that it should 1968 01:27:03,320 --> 01:27:04,920 Speaker 2: be the Vikings. 1969 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:07,040 Speaker 4: And I again. 1970 01:27:06,920 --> 01:27:09,519 Speaker 2: I follow a lot of Vikings people, and apparently they 1971 01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:13,679 Speaker 2: drafted the second coming in JJ McCarthy, So I don't 1972 01:27:13,720 --> 01:27:17,360 Speaker 2: really know unless there's been some setback in his recovery. Arnie, 1973 01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:19,639 Speaker 2: why would you feel the need to go get another 1974 01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:23,240 Speaker 2: veteran quarterback? I know you always need two quarterbacks. 1975 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,120 Speaker 3: Right, You need a backup in case McCarthy goes down, 1976 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:27,920 Speaker 3: gets hurt, or doesn't live up to expectations. Remember you play. 1977 01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:31,320 Speaker 2: Why would Matt Stafford, Aaron Rodgers, or even Sam Darnold 1978 01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:33,160 Speaker 2: be sign in a place where they feel like they're 1979 01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:34,320 Speaker 2: going to be second fiddle. 1980 01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:36,960 Speaker 3: Now that's a perfect place for Daniel Jones, though, isn't it. 1981 01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:39,800 Speaker 3: Well he's there, that's where he is, right, I'm saying 1982 01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:42,280 Speaker 3: that way, he's like things don't work out, I'm ready 1983 01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:43,719 Speaker 3: to take on over, to be honest. 1984 01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:46,639 Speaker 2: Two other NFL stories before we get to your tweets 1985 01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:49,000 Speaker 2: and what we learned in the NBA. Well, you know 1986 01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:51,040 Speaker 2: we're not going to waste your time because the NBA, Arnie, 1987 01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:52,880 Speaker 2: you hit it on the head kind of boring today. 1988 01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:54,880 Speaker 4: A lot of blowouts, not a lot of good games. 1989 01:27:55,320 --> 01:27:57,080 Speaker 3: Even though I tried to tell you you fought me 1990 01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:57,479 Speaker 3: on that. 1991 01:27:57,720 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 2: I did not fight you on it. It was a 1992 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,000 Speaker 2: boring dancer. There was a good game going on between 1993 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:02,640 Speaker 2: the Thunder and the Tea Wolves while the. 1994 01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:03,439 Speaker 4: Show was going on. 1995 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:05,920 Speaker 2: All right, Number one, do we find out this week 1996 01:28:05,960 --> 01:28:07,519 Speaker 2: if Travis Kelcey will retire? 1997 01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:10,840 Speaker 3: We have until what the fourteenth? Is that when he 1998 01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:13,280 Speaker 3: has till March fourteenth? Again? 1999 01:28:13,320 --> 01:28:16,440 Speaker 4: The league year starts on the twelfth, essential. 2000 01:28:16,120 --> 01:28:18,400 Speaker 3: Okay, so maybe the truth could be the trump I'm sorry. 2001 01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:20,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I guess the public you're right because the 2002 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:22,680 Speaker 2: date that was thrown around quite a bit was like 2003 01:28:22,720 --> 01:28:24,080 Speaker 2: the thirteenth or the fourteenth. 2004 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,840 Speaker 3: I think we'll find out within the next two weeks 2005 01:28:26,880 --> 01:28:28,880 Speaker 3: and he'll come back for one more year. I don't 2006 01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:30,400 Speaker 3: believe he's going to retire. 2007 01:28:31,600 --> 01:28:33,599 Speaker 4: Do you think? Well? And by the way, I didn't 2008 01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:34,480 Speaker 4: even realize. 2009 01:28:34,720 --> 01:28:38,519 Speaker 2: Charles Barkley and Ernie Johnson Junior have a podcast they 2010 01:28:38,560 --> 01:28:42,480 Speaker 2: do and Jason Kelsey was on it and Kelsey insinuated 2011 01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 2: that he thinks his brother's already made. 2012 01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:44,360 Speaker 4: Up his mind. 2013 01:28:44,520 --> 01:28:46,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I did hear that part, Yes. 2014 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 2: But he wouldn't really kind of lay out the why 2015 01:28:48,439 --> 01:28:52,519 Speaker 2: behind it. Okay, that's one NFL thing. Number Two, where 2016 01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:54,920 Speaker 2: are we in the Justin Tucker story. And I know 2017 01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,840 Speaker 2: it's a kicker, so I know it's not necessarily a 2018 01:28:58,040 --> 01:29:01,360 Speaker 2: major topic of conversation, but it is a very well 2019 01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:04,080 Speaker 2: known kicker, arguably one of the best kickers in the 2020 01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:06,959 Speaker 2: game that struggled this year. So now maybe his struggles 2021 01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:09,799 Speaker 2: make sense. But where are we on that story. 2022 01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:13,200 Speaker 3: I don't want him to buy his way out like 2023 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:16,439 Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson did, where you're settling these cases and then 2024 01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:19,880 Speaker 3: the NFL goes, well, everything's settled, so we're just going 2025 01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:23,840 Speaker 3: to move on. He needs to be suspended and immediately, 2026 01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:28,120 Speaker 3: like I'm talking about this week. He can't be around anymore. Obviously, 2027 01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:31,320 Speaker 3: there's a lot of evidence in the NFL has talked 2028 01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:33,559 Speaker 3: to a lot of the women so far. If he 2029 01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:35,479 Speaker 3: doesn't settle this thing out of court, it's going to 2030 01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:37,800 Speaker 3: come to the forefront. He needs to be because he 2031 01:29:37,880 --> 01:29:40,400 Speaker 3: might not have the money that of Deshaun Watson that 2032 01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:43,360 Speaker 3: he remember, he's just the kicker. I think he's got 2033 01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:44,560 Speaker 3: to be suspended immediately. 2034 01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:49,600 Speaker 2: And then one other non football story that again I 2035 01:29:49,680 --> 01:29:52,479 Speaker 2: want to say, I'm very disappointed you did not have 2036 01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:55,840 Speaker 2: in the Roman numeral wow. Wow, Why would you not 2037 01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 2: have what we typically do over the next few months 2038 01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:03,559 Speaker 2: on Sunday Night, potentially going away on a rundown Sunday 2039 01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:08,920 Speaker 2: night Baseball rip after this season. I mean ESPN and 2040 01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:10,120 Speaker 2: Baseball are breaking up. 2041 01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:12,880 Speaker 3: And how much are they paid for that? Like five 2042 01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:15,240 Speaker 3: hundred million dollars? Is that what it comes out to. 2043 01:30:15,360 --> 01:30:16,040 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. 2044 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:18,160 Speaker 2: Well, I mean we can get to the numbers in 2045 01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:20,760 Speaker 2: a bit, but how about just the fallout. I mean, 2046 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:23,439 Speaker 2: Baseball's trying to be all Barney, you know what, Barney 2047 01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:25,760 Speaker 2: badass in this and I don't really know if they 2048 01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:28,120 Speaker 2: have a lot of money waiting for them with other 2049 01:30:28,160 --> 01:30:31,000 Speaker 2: TV deals or deals that can give them the kind 2050 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:33,479 Speaker 2: of exposure and talk about the league that they want. 2051 01:30:33,640 --> 01:30:36,320 Speaker 3: I agree with ESPN on this one. I think Baseball 2052 01:30:36,479 --> 01:30:40,599 Speaker 3: is not must watch TV. When's the last time you said, 2053 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:42,880 Speaker 3: and I know you're a baseball fan, but does the 2054 01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:46,240 Speaker 3: typical fan sayey, I've got to go ahead and spend 2055 01:30:46,240 --> 01:30:48,320 Speaker 3: two and a half hours because this is a big 2056 01:30:48,360 --> 01:30:50,400 Speaker 3: time game. There's one hundred and sixty two of them. 2057 01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:52,840 Speaker 3: They're doing the right thing. They're not getting their money's 2058 01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:55,719 Speaker 3: worth for the five hundred plus million that they're spending 2059 01:30:55,760 --> 01:30:58,200 Speaker 3: out there. They'll go ahead and save themselves some money 2060 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:01,479 Speaker 3: and make a little cost cuts. They'll go with what 2061 01:31:01,640 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 3: college baseball in WNBA or college basketball, women's college basketball. 2062 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:08,120 Speaker 3: I agree with them. They're doing the right thing. 2063 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:10,960 Speaker 4: What ESPN's doing the right thing? Or baseball is doing 2064 01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:11,400 Speaker 4: the right thing. 2065 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:12,960 Speaker 3: ESPN's doing the right thing. 2066 01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:18,000 Speaker 2: Okay, women's college basketball inns in March. College baseball is 2067 01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:21,840 Speaker 2: over in June. Yes, what are you going to do 2068 01:31:21,880 --> 01:31:25,840 Speaker 2: in June, July and August September. 2069 01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 3: You should start buying those sitcoms like the Arn't e 2070 01:31:28,200 --> 01:31:31,760 Speaker 3: Span Your Sholf. That's what I'd start buying, you know, 2071 01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 3: the new episodes. They got eight new episodes in season 2072 01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:37,960 Speaker 3: one coming up, so they may have to start doing 2073 01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,040 Speaker 3: that they I mean think about that. They may have 2074 01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:43,120 Speaker 3: to go to programming or something like that. But well, 2075 01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:45,400 Speaker 3: playwrights are just too expensive. 2076 01:31:45,600 --> 01:31:46,000 Speaker 4: They are. 2077 01:31:47,439 --> 01:31:49,760 Speaker 2: And again going back to Jason Kelsey, I still have 2078 01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:51,840 Speaker 2: yet to find anyone who watched his show. Do you 2079 01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:55,280 Speaker 2: ever watch his TV show on Friday Nights? 2080 01:31:55,520 --> 01:31:56,160 Speaker 3: Never seen it? 2081 01:31:56,320 --> 01:31:59,519 Speaker 4: Yeah? It was terrible. It was I love the idea 2082 01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:00,439 Speaker 4: behind it. 2083 01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:04,240 Speaker 2: It was kind of like a Johnny Carson Jimmy fallon 2084 01:32:04,800 --> 01:32:07,240 Speaker 2: for sports, but it just it wasn't. 2085 01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:10,920 Speaker 3: Magic Johnson didn't succeed our Cityo Hall, none of them. 2086 01:32:11,120 --> 01:32:13,479 Speaker 2: Well, our Citio Hall was pretty damn successful for a 2087 01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:17,599 Speaker 2: long time, right, he was the dog bound. I mean, listen, 2088 01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:20,320 Speaker 2: everyone went on our Sinio then people kind of forgot 2089 01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:23,639 Speaker 2: about it. But I don't need another debate show as 2090 01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 2: sure as hell don't need that. I'd love to see 2091 01:32:26,200 --> 01:32:30,200 Speaker 2: that spotlight more on Sunday nights for college sports. Baseball 2092 01:32:30,320 --> 01:32:33,719 Speaker 2: softball deserve it. You mentioned the w NBA and women's 2093 01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:37,040 Speaker 2: basketball maybe, but I mean, let's let's be honest with it. 2094 01:32:37,360 --> 01:32:39,519 Speaker 2: The w n B a is not a TV hit 2095 01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:43,760 Speaker 2: unless Caitlin Clark's attached to it. I mean, that's that's 2096 01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:46,920 Speaker 2: that's the unfortunate reality that for some reason everyone associated 2097 01:32:46,920 --> 01:32:49,920 Speaker 2: with the w NBA doesn't want to admit. I mean, 2098 01:32:49,960 --> 01:32:52,439 Speaker 2: what that's some that's some prime real estate. 2099 01:32:52,800 --> 01:32:55,680 Speaker 3: Man, When you have to starday feeling in June, though, 2100 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:56,519 Speaker 3: is that what you're saying? 2101 01:32:57,320 --> 01:33:00,759 Speaker 4: That's college baseball in the World Series is in June? 2102 01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:03,559 Speaker 3: This is what I would do. Look, we all know 2103 01:33:03,600 --> 01:33:06,840 Speaker 3: what's king is the NFL starting in June or when 2104 01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:10,200 Speaker 3: they start coming to practice, which is what July. I say, 2105 01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:13,440 Speaker 3: every Sunday night we go around to a different practice 2106 01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:16,280 Speaker 3: and we bring you that practice and we break down 2107 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:19,040 Speaker 3: this that the other. Oh it's over a ratings grabber. 2108 01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:20,040 Speaker 3: You watch and see. 2109 01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:24,320 Speaker 2: So you mentioned it's a good move for ESPN. Yeah, 2110 01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 2: where does it leave baseball? So that's a five hundred 2111 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:32,080 Speaker 2: and fifty million dollars per season contract, right that I 2112 01:33:32,160 --> 01:33:35,439 Speaker 2: get it. Baseball tried to a position themselves where they said, 2113 01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:37,639 Speaker 2: what they're not we don't get talked about. 2114 01:33:37,840 --> 01:33:39,599 Speaker 4: It's we want to do something else. 2115 01:33:40,800 --> 01:33:42,720 Speaker 2: But you can't opt out of that deal unless you 2116 01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:45,080 Speaker 2: have five hundred and fifty million dollars sitting around. 2117 01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 4: And they minimize their value with. 2118 01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:49,679 Speaker 3: Sunday's night the best not the best night. Also, people 2119 01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 3: get me great to go to work on Monday and 2120 01:33:53,240 --> 01:33:55,760 Speaker 3: you know, thinking of different things and getting ready for 2121 01:33:55,800 --> 01:33:56,439 Speaker 3: the work week. 2122 01:33:56,600 --> 01:33:59,639 Speaker 2: But I think Sunday Night Baseball has been for sports 2123 01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:02,360 Speaker 2: fans a hit. That's and I know someone will come 2124 01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:03,880 Speaker 2: up with ratings, look at the ratings. 2125 01:34:03,880 --> 01:34:04,280 Speaker 4: They suck. 2126 01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:07,799 Speaker 2: But I think everybody knows Sunday night baseball. Does everybody 2127 01:34:07,800 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 2: know Saturday at primetime in the NBA? 2128 01:34:09,680 --> 01:34:12,840 Speaker 3: They know something that Baseball really don't have much other 2129 01:34:12,920 --> 01:34:15,439 Speaker 3: than that at that time slot ding ding ding. 2130 01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:20,160 Speaker 2: So will someone else try to make something of it? 2131 01:34:20,760 --> 01:34:25,679 Speaker 2: Could you see Fox Sports one trying to do something? 2132 01:34:25,920 --> 01:34:32,000 Speaker 2: Is that as big as a baseball? Could Amazon Prime 2133 01:34:32,560 --> 01:34:36,080 Speaker 2: get involved? I don't think Netflix is an awesome an option. 2134 01:34:36,200 --> 01:34:38,960 Speaker 2: Netflix to me is more about big time events, right. 2135 01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:42,839 Speaker 2: I could see Netflix being in the afternoon uh window 2136 01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:46,759 Speaker 2: conversation if CBS because apparently there's a whole football angle 2137 01:34:46,800 --> 01:34:51,720 Speaker 2: to this, two Arnie, Because the NFL if CBS changes ownership, 2138 01:34:52,240 --> 01:34:55,519 Speaker 2: that opens up a window for the NFL to get 2139 01:34:55,520 --> 01:34:58,479 Speaker 2: out of the contract. And Major League Baseball getting out 2140 01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:00,639 Speaker 2: of a deal is one thing. What are you doing? 2141 01:35:00,840 --> 01:35:04,679 Speaker 2: The NFL opening up his negotiations is like, okay, here 2142 01:35:04,720 --> 01:35:05,000 Speaker 2: we go. 2143 01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:07,760 Speaker 4: Who's going to pony up? Right? Baseball doesn't have that? 2144 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:10,400 Speaker 3: Well, I have a stupid question, what about the MLB channel? 2145 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:12,519 Speaker 4: What about it? 2146 01:35:12,880 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 3: I mean, you know the way the NFL was on 2147 01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:18,080 Speaker 3: the NFL channels sometimes on the on what is it 2148 01:35:18,120 --> 01:35:19,840 Speaker 3: like the not the Thursday is the third? 2149 01:35:20,040 --> 01:35:22,160 Speaker 2: That's great, you know, that's great, make that, but you 2150 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:25,120 Speaker 2: still have, okay, a five hundred and fifteen million dollar 2151 01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:27,760 Speaker 2: hole to make up. It's kind of like the It's 2152 01:35:27,840 --> 01:35:30,559 Speaker 2: kind of like the college world right, they've got rev 2153 01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:32,920 Speaker 2: share coming up, and you've got to come up with 2154 01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:37,040 Speaker 2: twenty million dollars. Like it's not magically given to you. 2155 01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:39,160 Speaker 2: You've got to come up with twenty million dollars out 2156 01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:41,679 Speaker 2: of your own budget well to pay these college players. 2157 01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:43,760 Speaker 2: So if and I'm not disagreeing with you, Arnie, I 2158 01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:47,439 Speaker 2: think MLB network would be great, But that's that's your network. 2159 01:35:47,520 --> 01:35:50,240 Speaker 4: So right, but you're paid five hundred million to do it. 2160 01:35:50,400 --> 01:35:52,639 Speaker 3: No, but you don't have to pay the five hundred million. 2161 01:35:53,120 --> 01:35:55,559 Speaker 3: They weren't on your they were getting paid that, okay, 2162 01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:58,040 Speaker 3: but you right understand that. But you you put it 2163 01:35:58,080 --> 01:36:00,559 Speaker 3: on your network and now you get the advertising dollars 2164 01:36:01,240 --> 01:36:02,920 Speaker 3: and you don't have to split that with anybody. It's 2165 01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:03,479 Speaker 3: all for you. 2166 01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:07,920 Speaker 4: Do you think they're getting five hundred million? No, No, 2167 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:08,920 Speaker 4: I don't. No, I don't. 2168 01:36:08,960 --> 01:36:11,639 Speaker 3: I don't. But that's you know, that's for the whole year. 2169 01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:13,439 Speaker 3: I don't know how much you get in advertising for 2170 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:14,559 Speaker 3: the year. I have no idea. 2171 01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:18,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, they ESPN are Major League Baseball screwed up with 2172 01:36:18,600 --> 01:36:21,879 Speaker 2: these deals they gave to Roku and Apple TV. Plus 2173 01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:25,680 Speaker 2: they minimized it. ESPN was smart enough to say we're 2174 01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:28,679 Speaker 2: not paying this anymore. It's not killing in the ratings. 2175 01:36:28,720 --> 01:36:32,200 Speaker 2: And honestly, I mean, Arnie, you and I see it 2176 01:36:32,640 --> 01:36:35,920 Speaker 2: whenever we talk about baseball. It's great whenever the World 2177 01:36:36,040 --> 01:36:39,200 Speaker 2: Series is going on. But for the most part, people are, hey, okay, 2178 01:36:39,240 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 2: we get it. It's baseball. What's going on. 2179 01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 4: You don't like what's happening in college. 2180 01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:44,760 Speaker 3: With you don't like the NFL, We'll show you a 2181 01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:47,160 Speaker 3: different practice on Sunday night or something like that. 2182 01:36:47,200 --> 01:36:48,840 Speaker 2: You don't like, I don't like that. I think that'd 2183 01:36:48,880 --> 01:36:52,720 Speaker 2: be the greatest idea ever love that. Yeah, exactly, that's 2184 01:36:52,760 --> 01:36:55,320 Speaker 2: thirty two weeks now. Granted you're not in practice all 2185 01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:57,559 Speaker 2: thirty two weeks, right, but you can't show me. 2186 01:36:57,479 --> 01:37:00,679 Speaker 3: Something right, show you We'll do two teams every Sunday 2187 01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:03,479 Speaker 3: night and do like half hour this team, half hoower 2188 01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:06,400 Speaker 3: that team, and people would eat that stuff up. Are 2189 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:07,919 Speaker 3: you kidding me? Geez? 2190 01:37:08,120 --> 01:37:10,960 Speaker 2: Major League Baseball can be mad at ESPN for its 2191 01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:14,240 Speaker 2: lack of baseball coverage, and that's what Rob Manfred said 2192 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:18,160 Speaker 2: in his memo that he sent out. But you were 2193 01:37:18,200 --> 01:37:21,720 Speaker 2: getting five hundred and fifty million dollars from ESPN, so 2194 01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:24,320 Speaker 2: I don't I don't get it. I don't get the 2195 01:37:24,360 --> 01:37:26,639 Speaker 2: desire to kind of tempt that tiger. 2196 01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:32,840 Speaker 3: Maybe you know, maybe these baseball and hockey and even 2197 01:37:32,880 --> 01:37:35,800 Speaker 3: the NBA with bad ratings, maybe they're going by the wayside. 2198 01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:37,760 Speaker 3: I think I brought this up to you before. I 2199 01:37:37,840 --> 01:37:40,439 Speaker 3: used to love Blockbuster and I used to love the Sizzler, 2200 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:43,120 Speaker 3: and both of them gone by the wayside. And one 2201 01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 3: of my other favorite restaurants, Hooters. Who would have thought that, 2202 01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:49,680 Speaker 3: right going to the So you know, maybe something and 2203 01:37:49,720 --> 01:37:54,120 Speaker 3: who would ever thought that Blockbuster and Hooters would be 2204 01:37:54,240 --> 01:37:58,000 Speaker 3: gone in our lifetime? So, you know, maybe it's time 2205 01:37:58,040 --> 01:38:00,960 Speaker 3: to move on from these sports that are an NFL 2206 01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:03,280 Speaker 3: and football and say we're not going to give you 2207 01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:04,880 Speaker 3: that type of money. And that's what they're doing. 2208 01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:07,040 Speaker 4: We're in the football game right now, baby. 2209 01:38:07,240 --> 01:38:09,439 Speaker 2: But yet they still overpay for the NBA and no 2210 01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:11,080 Speaker 2: one's really watching the NBA either. 2211 01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:13,720 Speaker 3: That It's ridiculous. 2212 01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:15,680 Speaker 2: That's what blows my mind.

I mean, people have talked about 2274 01:41:02,920 --> 01:41:07,479 Speaker 3: the NBA and the load management and just everything that's 2275 01:41:07,560 --> 01:41:11,559 Speaker 3: happened in that sport. So they're getting the less ratings, 2276 01:41:11,600 --> 01:41:15,000 Speaker 3: they're getting less people to watch there. Major League Baseball 2277 01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:17,840 Speaker 3: I felt was losing an audience for a long long time, 2278 01:41:17,880 --> 01:41:21,240 Speaker 3: and right we're finally just able to address it. They're 2279 01:41:21,280 --> 01:41:24,599 Speaker 3: in big trouble. That's why we add the pitch clock 2280 01:41:24,680 --> 01:41:27,360 Speaker 3: to speed the game up. I don't think that's helping 2281 01:41:27,400 --> 01:41:30,160 Speaker 3: as much. I don't think that's turning into viewership and 2282 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 3: that's going to be a problem. But they're trying to 2283 01:41:31,920 --> 01:41:35,320 Speaker 3: change things around to make it faster. Otherwise baseball could 2284 01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:36,040 Speaker 3: be in big trouble. 2285 01:41:36,320 --> 01:41:39,240 Speaker 2: Everything has to fit into a window now, right, You can't. 2286 01:41:39,760 --> 01:41:41,519 Speaker 2: You know, I used to think if and I still 2287 01:41:41,520 --> 01:41:44,400 Speaker 2: think this, If you're going to a baseball game and 2288 01:41:44,560 --> 01:41:46,679 Speaker 2: your question is, well, when are we going to be done? 2289 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:47,960 Speaker 4: What time are we going to be out of here? 2290 01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:50,760 Speaker 2: You're probably picking the wrong sport to begin with, but 2291 01:41:50,880 --> 01:41:52,760 Speaker 2: Baseball would like to put you in a window, and 2292 01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:54,639 Speaker 2: I mean that in a good way to where it's like, yeah, okay, 2293 01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:57,880 Speaker 2: two and a half hours max, which I think is impossible, 2294 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:00,400 Speaker 2: but maybe you would say three hours max. 2295 01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:02,639 Speaker 4: Right, And it worked. 2296 01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:05,600 Speaker 2: You shave some time off games, but you didn't necessarily 2297 01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:08,200 Speaker 2: improve ratings. So all of the games got faster, but 2298 01:42:08,240 --> 01:42:09,360 Speaker 2: your ratings didn't get high. 2299 01:42:09,439 --> 01:42:11,840 Speaker 3: And the problem is to pick any regular season game 2300 01:42:11,840 --> 01:42:14,720 Speaker 3: between any two teams. How many games or how many 2301 01:42:14,800 --> 01:42:16,840 Speaker 3: games are you saying to yourself, I've got to watch 2302 01:42:16,880 --> 01:42:20,640 Speaker 3: that game because shoe Otani's pitching or something. By the way, 2303 01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:23,280 Speaker 3: he's not pitching until May. But how many times if 2304 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:26,280 Speaker 3: the Dodgers are playing maybe they're playing the Yankees on 2305 01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:29,080 Speaker 3: a Saturday evening, Sure, and you want to watch that game. 2306 01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:32,200 Speaker 3: But how many games are like that? We'ds most watched TV. 2307 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:33,600 Speaker 3: You're not gonna have too many. 2308 01:42:33,720 --> 01:42:35,400 Speaker 4: I'm mis sure. Nobody points out, Arnie. 2309 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:38,240 Speaker 2: Do you recall when the Golden State Warriors finished seventy 2310 01:42:38,280 --> 01:42:42,480 Speaker 2: three and nine. Yes, they made the finals after Okse 2311 01:42:42,680 --> 01:42:45,760 Speaker 2: blew a three to one lead, then proceeded did the 2312 01:42:45,760 --> 01:42:48,360 Speaker 2: Warriors to blow a three to one lead to Lebron 2313 01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:51,479 Speaker 2: and the Cavaliers. Would Arnie say talent was down that year, 2314 01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:57,519 Speaker 2: Durant russ Kyrie Staph Lebron, Well, he actually did. I mean, 2315 01:42:57,520 --> 01:42:59,760 Speaker 2: this is one of our biggest fights that we've had 2316 01:42:59,760 --> 01:43:02,519 Speaker 2: for decade now to where Arnie thinks the talent in 2317 01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:04,400 Speaker 2: the league is not quite up. 2318 01:43:04,320 --> 01:43:07,000 Speaker 4: To par as to what it was in the eighties. 2319 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:09,360 Speaker 3: Right, which is I've been saying that for a long 2320 01:43:09,360 --> 01:43:10,240 Speaker 3: long time. 2321 01:43:10,200 --> 01:43:13,360 Speaker 2: Which is crazy talk because I would always say, but Arnie, 2322 01:43:13,400 --> 01:43:15,800 Speaker 2: you don't know, because who could be that next wave 2323 01:43:15,840 --> 01:43:16,759 Speaker 2: of Hall of Famers? 2324 01:43:17,240 --> 01:43:19,600 Speaker 4: But it didn't matter. And now when you fast. 2325 01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 2: Forward to ten years, there was were a lot of 2326 01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:25,160 Speaker 2: Hall of Famers that were playing together in those games potentially. 2327 01:43:25,200 --> 01:43:30,560 Speaker 2: But but I I don't think we're not necessarily disagreeing 2328 01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:33,960 Speaker 2: here about the value that's put on the regular season 2329 01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:37,040 Speaker 2: in the NBA. Right, there's teams that put more into 2330 01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:40,160 Speaker 2: it than others, of course, right, and you know, we're 2331 01:43:40,439 --> 01:43:43,160 Speaker 2: three or four years removed from Utah going into the 2332 01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:45,280 Speaker 2: postseason being the number one overall Seeds. 2333 01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:46,880 Speaker 4: So did they win the title that year? 2334 01:43:47,160 --> 01:43:47,400 Speaker 3: No? 2335 01:43:48,080 --> 01:43:50,759 Speaker 2: But I don't think there's anything wrong with the league 2336 01:43:50,800 --> 01:43:54,439 Speaker 2: because the Thunder and the Cavs are having great years. 2337 01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:57,679 Speaker 3: Wrong because the viewership is down, there's something definitely wrong. 2338 01:43:57,720 --> 01:44:00,679 Speaker 2: The viewership has been down whenever all the good teams 2339 01:44:00,680 --> 01:44:03,320 Speaker 2: that you love were they're near the top. You couldn't 2340 01:44:03,360 --> 01:44:06,960 Speaker 2: stand the Warriors and they saved viewership in the NBA 2341 01:44:07,040 --> 01:44:10,280 Speaker 2: for the longest time. Viewership is no more down now 2342 01:44:10,400 --> 01:44:11,960 Speaker 2: than it's been in the past five years. 2343 01:44:11,960 --> 01:44:14,000 Speaker 4: For the NBA, we'll all been bad period. 2344 01:44:14,080 --> 01:44:15,880 Speaker 3: If you listen to all the talkings because of all 2345 01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:17,760 Speaker 3: the three point shots that they're doing. 2346 01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:20,479 Speaker 2: Well, then that's the Warriors fault. Okay, go back to 2347 01:44:20,479 --> 01:44:22,400 Speaker 2: blaming Golden State on that one. 2348 01:44:22,560 --> 01:44:23,920 Speaker 4: I don't know. I'll just say this much. 2349 01:44:24,439 --> 01:44:26,880 Speaker 2: If you take some time to actually sit and watch 2350 01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:29,160 Speaker 2: a Thunder game, I think you'll be entertained. They're a 2351 01:44:29,160 --> 01:44:32,080 Speaker 2: fun team, but I know that's below you because they're 2352 01:44:32,080 --> 01:44:34,519 Speaker 2: Oklahoma City and you can only have New York, LA 2353 01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:35,120 Speaker 2: and Boston. 2354 01:44:35,240 --> 01:44:36,679 Speaker 3: I got to get a map out to see where 2355 01:44:36,680 --> 01:44:37,599 Speaker 3: Oklahoma is first. 2356 01:44:37,680 --> 01:44:40,080 Speaker 2: Right, Steve de Seger comes rolling in with his final 2357 01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:42,439 Speaker 2: update for US here on Fox Sports Radio tonight. 2358 01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:43,599 Speaker 4: What's going on, Steve. 2359 01:44:43,720 --> 01:44:45,960 Speaker 7: We'll get to LKC in a moment. You mentioned the 2360 01:44:46,120 --> 01:44:50,040 Speaker 7: baseball rights. Remember TNT's last season for NBA rights. This 2361 01:44:50,160 --> 01:44:52,840 Speaker 7: is ESPN's last year coming up for baseball rights. 2362 01:44:52,880 --> 01:44:53,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2363 01:44:53,240 --> 01:44:55,960 Speaker 7: And also ESPN Radio is not going to have Major 2364 01:44:56,040 --> 01:44:59,120 Speaker 7: League Baseball either after this season. Therefore, and they've been 2365 01:44:59,160 --> 01:45:02,679 Speaker 7: the exclusive home for everything for over twenty five years 2366 01:45:02,760 --> 01:45:05,479 Speaker 7: on the radio, not just All Star Game, but the 2367 01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:08,479 Speaker 7: Sunday nights in all the playoff games. That's going to 2368 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:11,080 Speaker 7: be to a new home as well. You mentioned show 2369 01:45:11,080 --> 01:45:14,439 Speaker 7: Hey Otani, he hadn't seen live pitching at all since 2370 01:45:14,479 --> 01:45:18,120 Speaker 7: the shoulder surgery in the offseason until today when he 2371 01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:21,120 Speaker 7: took some swings against a minor leaguer. No, he's not 2372 01:45:21,200 --> 01:45:26,080 Speaker 7: pitching early in the season. His teammates Roki Sasaki, number 2373 01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:29,439 Speaker 7: one prospect over from Japan, had a second bullpen session 2374 01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:31,720 Speaker 7: of the spring, and apparently we'll be pitching in a 2375 01:45:31,760 --> 01:45:34,320 Speaker 7: B game this week. Otani could be hitting in a 2376 01:45:34,360 --> 01:45:37,360 Speaker 7: regular spring training game this week. I mentioned earlier that 2377 01:45:37,439 --> 01:45:40,719 Speaker 7: Dodger first baseman Freddie Freeman could make his spring debut 2378 01:45:40,800 --> 01:45:44,040 Speaker 7: this week after ankle surgery in the offseason, the Yankees 2379 01:45:44,080 --> 01:45:46,280 Speaker 7: announced they're not going to play New York, New York. 2380 01:45:46,320 --> 01:45:50,479 Speaker 7: If Frank Sinatra saw that. Yeah, if the team loses. Instead, 2381 01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:53,760 Speaker 7: they'll rotate a selection of other Sinatra songs in the 2382 01:45:53,800 --> 01:45:56,719 Speaker 7: home ballpark, but New York, New York from Frank Sinatra 2383 01:45:56,840 --> 01:45:58,000 Speaker 7: only after wins. 2384 01:45:57,760 --> 01:46:01,320 Speaker 2: Only after wins.

Okus, we did this a month. 2389 01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:15,679 Speaker 3: I can't take it anymore. I don't like the song. 2390 01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:19,000 Speaker 3: It's been around for one hundred and fifty years. Let's 2391 01:46:19,040 --> 01:46:22,120 Speaker 3: go at something else, not even a good song. Enough 2392 01:46:22,120 --> 01:46:23,679 Speaker 3: with the Sweet Caroline please? 2393 01:46:24,400 --> 01:46:25,080 Speaker 4: Well, there you go. 2394 01:46:25,160 --> 01:46:27,960 Speaker 7: And he was born in New York, not Boston, right, 2395 01:46:28,000 --> 01:46:31,080 Speaker 7: Neil Diamond.

They had ball movement and 2502 01:51:42,439 --> 01:51:45,280 Speaker 2: player movement, so they get a lot of layups and 2503 01:51:45,400 --> 01:51:48,960 Speaker 2: high percentage shots as well. Teams like the Rockets shooting 2504 01:51:49,000 --> 01:51:53,479 Speaker 2: and missing twenty three straight threes. With the game the 2505 01:51:53,560 --> 01:51:56,960 Speaker 2: Warriors had Stephen Clay.

Frankly, 2517 01:52:25,479 --> 01:52:28,400 Speaker 2: I kind of hope Shador Sanders slides to six so 2518 01:52:28,439 --> 01:52:31,519 Speaker 2: we can get him. He's talking about we being the Raiders. 2519 01:52:32,160 --> 01:52:34,559 Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind Shador in the silver and black, you know. 2520 01:52:34,680 --> 01:52:36,840 Speaker 2: But I'm not a fan of guys not working out. 2521 01:52:37,000 --> 01:52:38,760 Speaker 3: I used to be all up in arms about that. 2522 01:52:38,840 --> 01:52:40,640 Speaker 3: I can't believe they're not working out or does he 2523 01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:42,720 Speaker 3: think he is? But you know what, there's so much 2524 01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:45,920 Speaker 3: to lose for these quarterbacks. They can slide so much. 2525 01:52:45,960 --> 01:52:49,120 Speaker 3: I can understand. I'm I certainly understand why you wouldn't 2526 01:52:49,120 --> 01:52:52,759 Speaker 3: want to do it. Abigail right settled down on the Lakers. 2527 01:52:52,840 --> 01:52:55,960 Speaker 2: Guys, why do you jump on the bandwagon when they 2528 01:52:56,000 --> 01:52:58,080 Speaker 2: played one good game? 2529 01:52:58,640 --> 01:52:58,920 Speaker 4: One? 2530 01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:02,240 Speaker 3: Well?

It's because Denver won nine in a row 2535 01:53:11,240 --> 01:53:14,479 Speaker 3: and the Lakers had not won in Denver in three years. 2536 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:17,360 Speaker 3: The Lakers were playing with Luca, which was only the 2537 01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 3: second game ever. I was telling you, I was quite 2538 01:53:22,400 --> 01:53:25,400 Speaker 3: surprised they were able to go and dominate them so easily. 2539 01:53:26,400 --> 01:53:29,960 Speaker 2: We actually had Poppy call in on Saturday night and 2540 01:53:30,000 --> 01:53:32,559 Speaker 2: pick that he called our Friday Night Friday Night, that 2541 01:53:32,640 --> 01:53:33,120 Speaker 2: was his pick. 2542 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:35,799 Speaker 4: He called it the Lakers covering.
