Now we got everybody in the 7 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: city apologizing to us. We've been receiving NonStop emails, letters 8 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: or we're so sorry, you know, please forgive us. Even 9 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 1: the mayor reached out and you know, you know another 10 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: person who has got to be apologizing to us. You know, 11 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: I had a conversation the other day with our broadcast 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: partner here Apple. Let me break it down for you know, 13 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: in the sports TV business, there's what's called carriage fees. 14 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: You know, all these cable providers, you know, your your Comcast, 15 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: your Spectrum, your Frontier, your Exfinity, whatever the hell that is, 16 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: they pay carriage fees to be able to put programming 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: on the air, like they pay es. He had five 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: dollars a month per customer FS one. They pay about 19 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: a buck CBS Sports Network. I think it's like three cents. Uh, 20 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: I actually think CBS actually pays them to be on. 21 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: But you know, there's apples and oranges anyway, talking about 22 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 1: apples in orange and I call up Apple and I say, hey, 23 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: you should be paying us a carriage fee for having 24 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: our programming your network, your platform. And the guy on 25 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: the phone, well, he said he'd get back to us, 26 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: and he immediately hung up, so you know, I could 27 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: tell he's on it. Yeah, we'll be hearing from him soon. Anyway, 28 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: As crazy as it sounds, the NBA is already back. 29 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: It's just crazy, you know, Tonty. It reminds me of 30 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: that scene in you know, Back to the Future too, 31 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: where Doc thinks that he sent Marty back to the future, 32 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: and then two seconds later, Marty comes back and Docs like, 33 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: what the funk are you doing here? And Marty's like, 34 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: I came back from the future, and Ducks like, you know, 35 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: what the hell I mean. That's a perfect analogy, because 36 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: that's exactly how I feel about basketball starting. Anyway, we're 37 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: bringing on this guy been with the Philadelphia and Choir 38 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: for years. The Sixes beat reporter Keith Pompey, And let 39 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 1: me tell you, if you know anything about Keith, he 40 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 1: is the biggest downer on the sixes. I've ever met 41 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: a total wet blanket, a dripping wet blanket, And I'm 42 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: about to go Mount Vesulvia Sun, Mr Pompeii. So we'll 43 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: get to our guests. But you know, Tony, it's hard 44 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 1: being right in this business. But you know, we we 45 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: just we keep mailing it. So here we go another 46 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,519 Speaker 1: edition of our most popular segment where Polly and Tony 47 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: were right, where Paully and Tony were right. Well, people, 48 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: what can we say? We've called it. You know, we 49 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: said Jalen Hurts would save the Eagles season, take the 50 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: Eagles straight to the super Bowl, and hey, we're right. 51 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: You know that he led the Eagles right there to 52 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: a definitive victory over the Saints. You know, doesn't get 53 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: more decisive than that. And that you know, Saints fans 54 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: they're up in arms, you know, they saying, uh, it 55 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,679 Speaker 1: wasn't fair because Drew Brees wasn't in the game. Well, hey, 56 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: Corson Wentz wasn't in the game, so you know there. Besides, 57 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: the Saints have been getting lucky for years. They've gotten 58 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: so many lucky breaks with the refs and such. Remember 59 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: that Rams game. Oh you know, the refs did them 60 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: a favor so they wouldn't have to get destroyed by 61 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: the Patriots and the Super Bowl. Yea. So to the 62 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: Saints fans, I say, just like the saying goes people 63 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: and glass houses, shouldn't be throwing houses at other people, 64 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: Well said, don'ty Well said where Pauli and Don were right. 65 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: You know, on the other hand, people everybody's wondering, what 66 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: do we do. You know with Corson Wentz in that 67 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: huge stupid contract the Eagles gave him. You know, we said, 68 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: don't give him that contract, and now the Eagles they're 69 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: looking for answers. Well, we got the answer for them. 70 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: It's very simple, sitting right there. Trade him to the 71 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: Cowboys for Dac. That's an equal trade paper. And you 72 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: know that that would be a good backup for us, 73 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: because you know, he's basically a poor man's version of 74 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, and that can learn as a backup, just 75 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: like Aaron Rodgers learned from Brett Farb. Don't forget Rogers 76 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: was under achieving in Green Bay his first two seasons. 77 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: He didn't even play, and Brett fob was like, hey, Aaron, 78 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: I'll show you how to throw t d s and 79 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: how to take pictures of your cock from different angles, 80 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: get the lighting just right to make it look bigger. 81 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: And boy, it must have worked because look at the 82 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: production from Aaron Rodgers. I mean he landed Danny Kapatrick, 83 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: Olivia Munster. You know it was some good toutelage as 84 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: they say, yeah to Elledge where Pauli and Dony who 85 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: were right? Speaking of Totaledge. You know, nobody's talking about 86 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: this Tonty. But hey, you know, finally Mitch Trushitsky looks 87 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: like Joe Montana and people going, oh, well, how did 88 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: this happen? He must have been so good. No, people, 89 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: it's not hard to see. Why. Look over to the 90 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: bench and who do you see sitting there? Nick falls 91 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: given his Super Bowl winning tootledge. Yep, and our sources 92 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: tell us we got a good source on this. Tony, 93 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: so says Nick. Foles has a direct mic into true 94 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: Shitzky's helmet, just like Joe Biden had in all the debates. Yeah, 95 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: he's talking to him. Look left, go deep, look for 96 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: the guy in the Bears uniform, not the Texans uniform. 97 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: It's kind of reminds me of that French movie where 98 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: the rat is the chef and he hides in the 99 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,679 Speaker 1: bus boy's hat and then he pulls on his hand 100 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: then makes the kid cook really good. Uh. I think 101 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: it's called the Rat Chef. No no, no, no, uh. 102 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: Radito yeah, Radit do Well said, yeah, the radit Pool 103 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: method where Paul and were right. Finally paper a little 104 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: NBA here LaMelo ball solid debut with the Hornets, and hey, 105 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: we knew it all along. You know, a few months ago, 106 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: Tony did a top ten list, a very controversial top 107 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: ten lists back on us second episode. You know, all 108 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: the big outlets were talking about it. You know, you 109 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: had a big MIC's sports media and be a blog 110 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: inside Philly Sports and Recreation dot org. You know, all 111 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: the big ones. They were all a buzz because Tony 112 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: put LaMelo in the top ten all time players even 113 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: though he hadn't played a game. But Tony explained your 114 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: reason in there was smart. As I've said before, when 115 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: you're doing an all time list, that means all time, 116 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: so you can't just go by what these players accomplished 117 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: in the past, but what they've accomplished in their future. 118 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: And we called it, we said, LaMelo ball is gonna 119 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: win seven or eight championships easily. And in his debut, 120 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: what do you know, he had ten rebounds and four assists, 121 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: including one of the best behind the back passes ever. 122 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: So Paulie I wouldn't be surprised if LaMelo gets his 123 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: first championship season this year, would you not? At all? 124 00:06:58,080 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: You know, you gotta have him as the front runs 125 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: coming out of the East. You know them in the 126 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: Sixes with Dlight Howard, now, uh you know, and um 127 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: you got to look at the pistons too with Lie Angelo. 128 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: So those three keep an eye on them.

We weren't surprised because you know, this 147 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: falls in line with your reputation. You know, you've heard 148 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: the phrase wet blanket. You've heard that phrase. You're a 149 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: dripping wet blanket. You're so wet, don't you agree? You're 150 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 1: a bit of a downer. I think I'm a realist, 151 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I think I'm a realist, 152 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: but you know I get it. I mean, hey, people 153 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: in my family trying to swing at me on Sundays 154 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: in church. You know, maybe they're trying to tell you, say, 155 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: you know, choosing to take a more optimistic approach. You know, 156 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: it's better for your family relationships. It's also good for 157 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: your blood pressure, so you know, maybe be more optimistic 158 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: about the Sixers. You know what, I don't think I'm 159 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: hating on the Sixers, you know what I mean. I 160 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: think I'm one of those guys that when you when 161 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: you play well, I write about it. When you struggle, 162 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,239 Speaker 1: I write about it. But I have to have my credibility, 163 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Of course, we're the most 164 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: credible journalists out there. Who wants to swing it? You? 165 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: I want to know what's going on there in the 166 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: Pompeii family. How does that work? Also? Can I thank them? Yeah? 167 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: You can thank them. You can thank them? Who thank 168 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: my mom for swinging? Oh she's never had, she's never had. 169 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: She's a good lady. I already like her, you know, 170 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: I really do. I'm kind of curious. You know, it 171 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: wasn't one of the prerequisites when you applied for a 172 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: job with the Philly Enquirer, Like, Hey, are you a 173 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: Sixers fan? I would think that would be the first 174 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: question in the interview, right Paul. They asked that. Nah, 175 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: Well that's on them. But you know, come on, let's 176 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: get down to brass tax as they say, Yeah, what 177 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: don't you like about this here? Sixers? Come on, give 178 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: us some proof. You know, I don't really think I'm 179 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: down on the Sixers. I think that I have to 180 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: ask myself who's going to be the closer? And if 181 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: you say Joel Embi, nothing against him, but everything has 182 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: to go right when you give the ball to the Senate. Whoa, whoa? 183 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: What do you mean? Two words? Dwight Howard, he just 184 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: closed the championship for the Lakers. Closer. Yeah, he's a 185 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 1: close all right. But the thing is, you need a 186 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: perimeter closing. Okay, I mean you need come on, man, 187 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: you need a guy who's like, you need a guard. 188 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about. You need a guard, you 189 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: know what you need? You need Jimmy Butler, that type 190 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: of guy. Yeah, yeah, but he's with Miami. Now. Yeah, 191 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: do you have a time machine? Yeah? Yeah, they probably 192 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: wish they had one right about now. But all right, 193 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: well that leads to a great question. The rumors are 194 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: still out there about Mr James Harden. You know, we're 195 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: still hoping this thing works out because you know that's 196 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: a ring guaranteed. Don't you agree that this is what 197 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: you're leading to. He's the missing piece for the Sixers, 198 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: that perimeter shooter. I think he is. I do. My 199 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 1: only question mark is like, okay, so now you have 200 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: John Wall over there. So if you have John Wall, 201 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: Kim Ben Simmons and John wal Co exists, who cares? 202 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: Let them figure that out. You know, you're the sixes. 203 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: You don't care. But you know, I think James would 204 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: be great because you need a guy who could close. 205 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: Now again, he's not a popular choice because a lot 206 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: of people in Philly talk about him being a ball hall. No, 207 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: they're wrong. He's a distributor, just like Allen Iverson, who 208 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: thought about passing the ball, always thinking about his teammates. 209 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: They're just passing back, right, Yeah, that's what he was about. 210 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: Pardon He's like Iverson mixed with Moses Malone and Carl 211 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: Malone and the Double Malone. Yeah, look, we got Doc Rivers. 212 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: Got to get your take on that. You know, come on, 213 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: this guy took the Celtics from nothing to a championship 214 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: in one year. Don't you think come on, don't you 215 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 1: think he'll do it again? I think, you know what, 216 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: I'm intrigued to see what Doc can do. Now you're 217 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: talking there, you go, there's some rare positivity out of 218 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: you now. Coming to reason being is because you know 219 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: Doc Rivers has been when you think about it. Like 220 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: the last five years ago the Mount Rushmore, Doc Rivers 221 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: was on there, everyone talked about Doc, about how great 222 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: he was. And now, for the first time since before 223 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: he won that championship, you have people looking at him 224 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: in question. You're saying, like, you know, what about the accountability, 225 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: what about practice? What about all these other things? You 226 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: have to believe all those Docs says all it doesn't 227 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: bother me. You have to believe it does. You also 228 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: have to believe that he's extremely motivated to prove people wrong. 229 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: So I'm really looking forward to what he can do. Now. 230 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: This might sound crazy to y'all because but I do 231 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: think that the sixers. Everybody is hyping the sixers up now. 232 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: I think the jump goes next year. Forgot next year, 233 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: this is the year and next year, man, I don't know, 234 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: like you know, I think it may be the year 235 00:12:54,720 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: for Brooklyn now and I think that's the year, and 236 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: maybe you should go work in Brooklyn, you know, be 237 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: a good career move for you. Also, your family would 238 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: probably be glad to see your goal. Yeah, but you know, 239 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: on the subject the careers, you know, we've been doing 240 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: this thirty years now, you're thirty. If you count middle school? 241 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: How the hell you become the beat reporter for the 242 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: sixes and they, you know, had this job sixteen is 243 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: what what do you do? Well? Actually I got the job. 244 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: When I first started, I was like covering high schools. 245 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: But real story, I walked into the inquire like seriously, 246 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: I had that I'm from Philly, but I was living 247 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 1: in Myrtle Beach and I was in town for a 248 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: wet and I had a buddy who worked here, and 249 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: I said, whatever you can do, please get me in 250 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: the door, Please get me in the door. He got 251 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 1: me in the door. I sat down, I talked to someone. 252 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: They introduced me to the sports editor and then they 253 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: hired me a month later. Yeah, it was like it 254 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: was luck. It was no wonder. They should ask a 255 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 1: couple more questions. That didn't know what the yea, yeah, 256 00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: let me go down and there word of security.
