Take you up to three m Pacific, 10 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 2: six am Eastern and a minute, I'll dive into the 11 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 2: World Cup. We've got NFL preseason stuff at AFC North 12 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: Preview tonight, all the big stories, a couple of good guests. 13 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 2: Of course, the final hour, we've got what kind of 14 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 2: brand new fool you followed by what my name? And 15 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: as they say in Chanhassen, Minnesota, it's gonna be lit 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 2: in about three hours. By the way, someone's gonna make 17 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 2: history because if Sweden wins, it will be the first 18 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 2: time that they've beaten the US in the knockout stage 19 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 2: of the World Cup. Or if the US prevails, they'll 20 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 2: be on their way to the quarterfinals and trying to 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: become the first team ever to three pete. Remember, no 22 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: team in the World Cup has ever three peated Brazil. 23 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: Min's team I believe is fifty six, sixty and sixty 24 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 2: eight one three out of four. Nobody's ever three petd 25 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 2: Is that a word? Well it is now woke up 26 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: this morning? Did that really happen? I mean the Pac 27 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 2: twelve Bill Walton's right, Q Bill Walton? Has anybody checked 28 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: on Bill Walton? He's talked about the you know, the 29 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: the Conference A champions He's not wrong. The Pac twelve 30 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: in their history, has claimed five hundred and fifty three 31 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 2: national championships, including as their time as the Pacific Coast Conference. 32 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 2: That's the most of any NCAA conference. So with a 33 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: lump in their throat, they're about to become the lame 34 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: duck conference. At least this twenty twenty three season. They'll 35 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: all be there. But goodbye Arizona, Oregon, and Washington as 36 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:11,679 Speaker 2: they joined USC, UCLA and Colorado and their mad exit Arizona, 37 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 2: Arizona State, Utah. They're headed to the Big twelve. So 38 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 2: now we are down to the pack four. What happens? 39 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. So We're not going to ruminate or 40 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: speculate on that tonight. It's why I didn't report on 41 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 2: it last week. It's why there are a lot of 42 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 2: folks who are in a mad rush to predict what 43 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,119 Speaker 2: was going to happen. I was not one of them, 44 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: but when the news came down yesterday, I gave my perspective. 45 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 2: And we'll get into a little bit later because now 46 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: that the dust is settling a little bit, there is 47 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: some history here to at least reference, which I will 48 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: share with you at the bottom of the hour. But 49 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: as I mentioned, in three hours, there's a match between 50 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 2: USA and Sweden, and the knockout state that if it 51 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: doesn't have your interest, question your fandom. This is the 52 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: biggest stage in all sports, the World Cup, and you 53 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: know there are always expectations for the women's team. Let's 54 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: not be mixed up. They have not performed to the 55 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: level of excellence people have expected, but they are where 56 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: they need to be, except they didn't win. They didn't 57 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: win their group, so you get a little bit tougher situation. 58 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: And you can't tell this story without at least acknowledging 59 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: and recognizing that had Portugal hit the back of the 60 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: net instead of the post. The post is always a 61 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: goalie's best friend, whether it's soccer or hockey. Had Portugal 62 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: hit the back of the net instead of the post 63 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 2: in the closing stages of the final Group EE game, well, 64 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: the US they be home right now watching this game 65 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: on TV with the rest of US. But the women 66 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: ultimately clinched a mill mill draw. They get second place 67 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 2: behind the Netherlands, but as a result of not topping 68 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: their group, they're gonna have tough opponents from here on out, 69 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 2: especially in the Group of sixteen versus Sweden in the 70 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 2: knockout round. It's not lost on me that the five 71 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: points garnered by the USA and their group stage that 72 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: was their lowest ever return at the Women's World Cup. 73 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 2: By contrast, Sweden won all three of their group games 74 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: three and ohero including poll acts in Italy five nothing 75 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 2: and shutting out Argentina to nothing going three and oh. 76 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 2: It took a ninetieth minute goal to beat South Africa 77 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: and the opener, but that proves they can win a 78 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 2: close clutch game as well. Now, if you're scoring a 79 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 2: home hopefully you are the United States. Well, they've won 80 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: their last eight games on a knockout stage of the 81 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: Women's World Cup. The last time they failed to do 82 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: it was in twenty eleven final against Japan. They lost 83 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: on penalty kicks, so excluding penalty shootouts, and last time 84 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: the US women lost in the knockout stage was the 85 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: semi finals in twenty oh seven against Brazil, but they 86 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: got hammered four to nothing. The USA and Sweden have 87 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: a tremendous history between the two countries in Women's World Cup, 88 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: and if you go back to twenty eleven, Sweden beat 89 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: the US in the World Cup two to one in 90 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 2: the group stage. By the way, don't count them. I'm 91 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: not going to count the friendlies because US beat Sweden 92 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: in some friendlies in the last twelve years. But if 93 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 2: you just look at World Cup. In the Olympics twenty eleven, 94 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: Sweden beat the US two to one. Twenty fifteen in 95 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 2: the World Cup there was a neil nil draw in 96 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: the group stage, and the twenty sixteen Olympics Sweden beat 97 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: the US four to three on pks. Now the twenty 98 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: nineteen World Cup, in which the USA, you know, they 99 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 2: won the championship that year, they actually beat two to 100 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 2: nothing in the group stage. But then in the twenty 101 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 2: twenty Olympics, Sweden prevailed three to nothing. So if you 102 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 2: just go back to twenty eleven, they've lost three one 103 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 2: to one and had a draw, combining whether it was 104 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 2: in the World Cup or the Olympics. So no side 105 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: has scored as many goals or attempted as many shots 106 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 2: from the corners as Sweden. Their corner kick their set 107 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 2: pieces are very good. They've taken seventeen corner kicks in 108 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 2: this tournament and they've scored four goals. That could be 109 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 2: a problem. The bigger problem I think tonight for the 110 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: US is no Rose Lavelle. She was working her way 111 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 2: back and to her full fitness during the group stage. 112 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: Remember she was on a bit of a pitch count. 113 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: Why coming off the knee surgery. Her energy, her speed, 114 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 2: her ability to pass for penetration, pass for possession, set 115 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: up offense is going to be sorely missed. She's suspending 116 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 2: after getting two yellow cards in group plays. Likely means 117 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 2: Savannah de Mello, who started the first two matches before 118 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 2: being replaced by Lavelle. I'm guessing she'll return to the 119 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 2: starting lineup. There's a lack of experience there. Overall. Sweden 120 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: has been very clinical were their chances in the Women's 121 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: World Cup. They score a higher proportion of their non 122 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 2: penalty shots than any other nation. I mean, analytics have 123 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: gone bananas. And you know how I feel about analytics, right, 124 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: I respect him. I consider them to be a guideline, 125 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: not an inflexible anchor. Analytics tell you what you did yesterday. 126 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: They don't necessarily tell you what you're gonna do tomorrow 127 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 2: because all they can do is predict based on thousands 128 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 2: of simulations. That's why I love the nickname Aaron gave 129 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 2: Brandon Staley. I'm not a Brandon Staley fan at all. 130 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 2: No faith in that guy. I'm guessing he uses analytics 131 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 2: when he goes through McDonald's draft. You that's his problem. 132 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 2: But what has has Sweden done well? Well, they've scored 133 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 2: nineteen percent of their shots on goal. That's impressive. So look, 134 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 2: I'm not going to pick on Alex Morgan. She is 135 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: actually looking to be the fourth player to reach double 136 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: figures for Women's World Cup goals. But she has yet 137 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: to score in this World Cup and she's had more 138 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: shots than any of her teammates fourteen. But keep an 139 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 2: eye that, you know, the shots on goal statistic for 140 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 2: soccer is a little misleading. And you know, for instance, 141 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: the US had twenty seven shots on goal, I believe 142 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 2: against Vietnam, but only seven are on target. So I 143 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: want to focus back on the fact that this is 144 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: actually the seventh meeting between Sweden and the USA. This 145 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 2: is the most you know, these two teams are sort 146 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 2: of joined at the hip in the previous six meetings 147 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 2: all occur in the group stage. And look, the bottom 148 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,079 Speaker 2: line is the USA they've got an reputation, a reputation uphold. 149 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 2: They've lost just two of their last two games against Sweden, 150 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 2: all competitions. Again, they lost to they lost the Olympics 151 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 2: free nothing to Tokyo just a couple of years ago. 152 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 2: And despite Sweden looking better than the USA in the 153 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 2: group stage, well, the USA is actually favored. They're a 154 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 2: small favorite. Do you want to bet one hundred dollars, 155 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: it would bring you back one hundred and five. If 156 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: you want to bet the Swede, two hundred dollars brings 157 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 2: you back two hundred and forty. Those odds are not 158 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 2: a prediction, they're nothing more than, and you know, an 159 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 2: instrument to create equal action on both sides. There have 160 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 2: been multiple computer simulations of this game already with the 161 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 2: US winning forty four percent of the time and Sweden 162 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 2: winning twenty eight percent of the time. But the game 163 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: is not played by computers, is played by human beings. 164 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: So two hours and forty nine minutes away from kickoff 165 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 2: and we'll be on our show and Crystal join us 166 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 2: at two thirty and we'll talk about you know where, 167 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: you know how the team has look at least through 168 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 2: the first half.

Jason, 214 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 2: thanks for making time again. 215 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 5: Great to be talking to you. 216 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: Vernon lot to cover. I want to put a capper 217 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: on Sean Payton's comments. I can't believe it's had this 218 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: many legs or this much legs or whatever. The proper 219 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:37,599 Speaker 2: syntax is, what's your takeaway on Sean Taylor's comments or 220 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: chip chip to try that again, Sean Payton's comments, and 221 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: what's been the general consensus, Well, in. 222 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 6: Terms of the comments themselves, it's been controversial in that 223 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 6: Sean Payton said. 224 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 5: What was probably true is it's. 225 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 6: Really hard to look at what the Broncos did from 226 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 6: a coaching staff perspective last season and viewed as anything 227 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 6: other than a failure. And some of this scenes pred 228 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:01,359 Speaker 6: from about. 229 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 5: This time last year. 230 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 6: Not that Nathaniel Hackett was destined to be a bad 231 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 6: head coach, but it was such an inexperienced staff top 232 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 6: to bottom. We usually do not see that with first 233 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 6: time he had coaches some of a process standpoint. There 234 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 6: were a lot of questions even at this time last year. 235 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 6: So Sean Payton going in obviously with all the pelt 236 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 6: he has on the wall, going and saying, yeah, this 237 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 6: team underperformed last year and you have to blame the 238 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 6: coaching staff for a lot of it isn't actually incorrect. 239 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 6: It's just rare to hear a coach really talk with 240 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 6: that kind of candor. And yah, he tried to walk 241 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 6: it back. I think we all know really what his 242 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 6: motivations were there. But ultimately this is not going to 243 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 6: matter even two weeks from now. That's just that's how 244 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 6: the NFL news cycle works. It's just interesting that a coach, 245 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 6: even one at the estab Sehn Payton, would just be 246 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 6: that honest in front of a microphone. 247 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was intentional and I agree with 248 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 2: what you said there. However, it seems like the Jets 249 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 2: are using this for fodder for Week five. Has that 250 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:57,479 Speaker 2: been overplayed? 251 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 5: I mean overplayed? It is hard to say. I don't 252 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 5: think it really matters to. 253 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 6: Them that much after, you know, beyond the first like 254 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 6: twenty four forty eight. 255 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 5: Hours, beyond the comments. 256 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 6: It'll come up again when that matchup is approaching, and 257 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 6: then after that game is over, regardless of the outcomes, 258 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 6: every side is gonna move on right Like again, that's 259 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 6: the reality of the NFL news cycle. 260 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 5: This thing is always moving because. 261 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 6: There's so much new that it's hard to get stuck 262 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 6: in any one topic, even when it's something as you know, 263 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 6: big and controversial as Sean Payton Thomas. 264 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 2: Speaking of feuds, what's the current situation between Jonathan Taylor 265 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 2: and the Colts? Where does that stand right now? 266 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 6: Well, it's a complete stand still, and I mean that 267 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 6: almost literally. Jonathan Taylor as one of the many running 268 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 6: backs this offense that are looking for a sizeable pay raise. 269 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 6: It's not only not getting it, but it doesn't appear 270 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 6: that the culture of an interested entertaining extension prior to 271 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 6: the conclusion of his current contract. He was his second 272 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 6: round pick Behtweens his rookie deal with four years. The 273 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 6: team probably thought, you know, prior to this situation, they 274 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 6: could play him for four years on their rookie contract 275 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 6: at that very low price, and then franchise tagged. 276 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 5: Him for the following season. 277 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 6: That's a very similar road match what we've seen with 278 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 6: players like Josh Shacobs and take on Barkley and then 279 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 6: maybe move on at that point. It's not that Johnson 280 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 6: Taylor has a been a fantastic player when healthy, He's 281 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 6: been one of the very best running backs in the league. 282 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 5: But we see time and time again teams. 283 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 6: That invest big contracts in running backs. 284 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 5: With limited exception tender. 285 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 6: And granted, the Colts know this, and that's why they 286 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 6: were hoping they just didn't have to deal with this 287 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 6: issue for at least another offseason. 288 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 5: But it's come to that. 289 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 6: Johnathan Taylor wanted something sooner. Jim R Say, let's just say, 290 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 6: inserted himself as the situation, and now it's gotten to 291 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 6: the point where no one is likely to be happy 292 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 6: with the outsham. I think ultimately Jonathan Taylor will play 293 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 6: for them this season and is not going to stay 294 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 6: away for all that long because those important thing for 295 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 6: him is not necessarily the money he would get this year. 296 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 6: That's in significant to him, but he needs to get 297 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 6: that a cruise season so that he becomes Eltonhere yes, 298 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 6: unrestricted free agency the following year, and because of that, 299 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 6: I think that gets result in the short run, but 300 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 6: like long. 301 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 5: Term, I have a hard time. 302 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 6: Seeing the cults watching this to continue. And obviously Taylor 303 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 6: is going to want to move on at some point 304 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 6: where you can presumably get more money than the culture 305 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 6: willing to get them. 306 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 2: Now, you bring up a great point there. Not only 307 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 2: is he being fined forty thousand dollars a day, but 308 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 2: he does risk losing a crude season for twenty twenty 309 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: three that would render him a restricted free agent next 310 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 2: March instead of unrestricted. You bring him an excellent point here. 311 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 2: Let's jump to the Raiders and they're having their own 312 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 2: foibles with Josh Jacobs. I'm having a hard time believing 313 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 2: they would rescind the franchise tag. What do you think 314 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 2: happens there? 315 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's something we don't see very often. 316 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 7: There is some precedent. 317 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 6: We saw this with the Panthers about five or so 318 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 6: years ago with Josh Norman. But even that with an 319 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 6: a novelty, I don't think that's the Raider wants to 320 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 6: go into this season without Josh Jacobs, or alternatively going 321 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 6: to the season without getting something for Josh Jacobs. And 322 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 6: Josh Jacobs also has intensive right like even though the 323 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 6: prices fact that the long term deal he's looking for 324 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 6: that is a fair amount of money, it's almost as 325 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 6: much money as he's made his entire career to date. 326 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 5: It's not even a little more. 327 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 6: So I think he's going to end up planes for 328 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 6: them if they're not able to, you know, find a 329 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 6: suit or. 330 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 5: For him elsewhere. 331 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 6: But it's a similar situation long term as it is 332 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 6: with Johson Taylor's. 333 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 5: We just talked about. 334 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 6: Jacobs wants security, as you can imagine someone's position would 335 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 6: look for. The Raiders do not want to commit to 336 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 6: a running back, even though he's been extremely productive for 337 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 6: him over the past season, and that also is going 338 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 6: to lead in all likelihoods to the two sides going 339 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 6: to separate. Way if the Raiders thought that there was 340 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 6: a multi year change reformaterus wasn't going to be like 341 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 6: a blockbuster deal. They could structure a contract that way. 342 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 6: We've seen some contracts like that for running backs in 343 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 6: the past. Now, Aaron Jones, not that many seasons ago, 344 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 6: signed a four year deal that was really a de 345 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 6: facto two year deal with multiple team options afterwards. 346 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 5: You know, the Raiders could have. 347 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 6: Done something like that for Jaco's gotten him the money 348 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 6: he's looking for upfront without necessarily committing you know, three 349 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 6: four real years to that player, and they didn't do that. 350 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 6: The indicates that they're not super serious. But having Josh 351 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 6: Jacobs long term jigs in his asion notice and that's 352 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 6: why he continued to be kind of this standoff where 353 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 6: they'll eventually report again like it is a fair. 354 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 5: Amount of money. 355 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 6: He's not going to walk away from that entirely, but 356 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 6: it's not going to be the deal he's looking for 357 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 6: with the Raiders. 358 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: Talking with Jason Hershorn of the Leap to Packers newsletter, Jason, 359 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: let's flip to the AFC East with respect to the 360 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 2: relationship between Aaron Rodgers and Zach Wilson, how's that going along? 361 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 2: Is is Rogers actually mentoring him or what's been the 362 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: dynamic there. 363 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 6: I would point out here that the idea of a 364 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 6: better quarterback who's starving mentoring a young quarterback at the 365 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 6: backup is kind of an overrated thing, right, Like, not 366 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 6: specifically with these players, Like across the league, we don't 367 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 6: really see a lot of that. Now, there's cases of 368 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 6: that that are at starting quarterback being you know, less 369 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 6: helpful press to that young backup. 370 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 5: I mean Rogers though that. 371 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,880 Speaker 6: Himself as certain degree his first two years in Green 372 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 6: Bay with Brett Barr, who very much didn't want to 373 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 6: lose that job, and I don't think that's the case 374 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 6: in New York. But beyond that, there's really not a 375 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 6: lot that Rogers can do. The way those practices are 376 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 6: structured is the starting quarterback gets the vast majority of 377 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 6: the reps. Reps are going to be the thing that's 378 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 6: going to help Dak Wilson. 379 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 5: Or any young quarterback. 380 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 6: And that has nothing to do with Rogers approaching this. 381 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 6: That's just the reality of preparing a team with a 382 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 6: new quarterback and a bunch of young skill position players. 383 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 7: So, you know, Rogers said the right things as it. 384 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 6: Pertains to Zak Wilson, and that's great, But ultimately, like 385 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 6: Zack Wilson is not really a part of this franchise's 386 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 6: vision for the next few years. And you know, two 387 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 6: years from now, if that's the length of times of 388 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 6: Rogers's place for them, Deck Wilson may. 389 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 5: Not even be in New York. 390 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 6: This contract will have told by that point. Doesn't be 391 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 6: like they're going to pick up his fifty year option 392 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 6: if it what's happened already. So like, I don't know 393 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,199 Speaker 6: how much of this really matters. Like, if they have 394 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 6: a good personal relationship, then that's obviously good for both 395 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 6: of them and there for the other people in the 396 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 6: locker room, but it doesn't really matter because Rogers is 397 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 6: the fulkrum of that entire franchise and everybody involved knows that. 398 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 2: Let's flip to the New England Patriots. I'm hearing Bill 399 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 2: O'Brien is a very welcome edition. He had a relationship 400 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 2: with Zach or with Mac Jones at Alabama, huge upgrade 401 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: over Matt Patricia. How's that dynamic working out newing them 402 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 2: so far? 403 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, obviously connection with the Patriots and with Max Joes 404 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 6: is very meaningful, But I think as important is the 405 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 6: difference between Bill O'Brien and his direct predecessor in New England. 406 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 6: You know Matt Patrician, who hasn't been named offensive coordinator, 407 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 6: but he was the offensive play caller. It was a 408 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 6: disaster last year. And that's not an oversaving and it's 409 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 6: not surprising either. It is not a job that he's 410 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 6: ever held before. He never called offensive place, had worked 411 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 6: on offense in any meaningful way. It was a big 412 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 6: gamble by Bill Belchick that just didn't pay off. So 413 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 6: going from someone who is wholly unprepared for that role, 414 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 6: because someone. 415 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 5: Who has done a version of that. 416 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 6: Job at multiple stops for the better part of a 417 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 6: decade and a half, it's going to be a huge upgrade, 418 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 6: not just in terms of the play calls that he chooses, 419 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 6: in terms of the structure of the offense, the way 420 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 6: the offensive practices are run, how that entire unit operates. 421 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 6: From that perspective, those things are going to be so 422 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 6: much more structured and efficient and better. 423 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 5: Even if Philip Ryan. 424 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 6: Isn't, you know, more than like a pedestrian play offers 425 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 6: the Patriots, that's still a huge upgrade. And it doesn't 426 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 6: mean it so that the Patriots are going to go 427 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,040 Speaker 6: back to being a playoff team. Like they were two 428 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 6: seasons ago, but it wasn't been a lot better position, right, Like, 429 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 6: if the offense is even, it's functional, so that's a 430 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 6: huge step up. The defense is able to be okay, 431 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 6: which set the question mark in his own right. That's 432 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 6: the seem that's at least going to be competitive in 433 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 6: that very competitive AFC's devisions. 434 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,959 Speaker 2: Jason, great stuff.

The Yankees beat Houston 460 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 8: and Justin Verlander three to one, even though Verlander, the 461 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 8: former Met, went seven innings Yankee starter Nestor Cortes and 462 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 8: no decision despite eight strikeouts in his four innings of work. 463 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,359 Speaker 8: The Rangers have won five in a row.

Cubs only one game out of 491 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 8: the final NL Wildcard, and it was in Philadelphia over 492 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 8: Kansas City nine to six that actually broke a seven 493 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 8: game win streak. The Royals victories for Oakland and Saint Louis, 494 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 8: and yes, the White Sox won at Cleveland seven to 495 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 8: four in the game that had the fight. In the 496 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 8: sixth ning, Jose Ramirez knocked down the shortstop of the 497 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 8: White Sox Tim Anderson with a punch. 498 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 3: Both were kicked out. 499 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 8: Saints running back you Know Benjamin is likely out for 500 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 8: the year with a ruptured achilles. Yesterday, the team announced 501 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 8: that New Orleans running back Alvin Kamara was suspended for 502 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 8: three regular season games after his fight in Vegas over 503 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 8: a year ago. Most of the NFL starts the preseason 504 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 8: in about a week after the Hall of Fame Game 505 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 8: opened things last Thursday. The Broncos say quarterback Russell Wilson 506 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 8: and starters will play in the exhibition opener Friday. The 507 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 8: colt sign running back Kenyon Drake and Falcons expecting defensive 508 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 8: back Jeff Okudah to return early in the regular season 509 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 8: after his ankle injury. 510 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 2: Back to you, Steve, I'm guessing the cast of Sarah 511 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,920 Speaker 2: Purcell and that's incredible. Were there in Cincinnati if Ellie 512 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 2: Dyler Cruz made two airs tonight and I know you 513 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 2: got that reference. 514 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 3: I do. 515 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 8: That was the John Davidson Show. Remember that there decades again? 516 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 8: Oh yes, it was kind of the starter to what 517 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 8: we now have with clips going back and forth on 518 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 8: Twitter or online. 519 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 2: Is very much so. 520 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 3: They would play some of that on Network TV. 521 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 2: Hold that thought. I'm gonna come back to you because 522 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 2: I know you know the names Frank Broyles, Darryl Royle, you. 523 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 3: Know for time college football. 524 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna come right back to you on that hold thought. 525 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 2: Let me tee this up because for eighty two years, 526 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 2: the Southwest Conference was a very tightly knit conference. It 527 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 2: was Americana, It was pure college football. It was deep 528 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 2: in the heart of Texas, great energy, great excitement. And 529 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 2: if you've heard of SMU and the Pony Express and 530 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 2: Eric Dickerson and Craig James, if you have heard of 531 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 2: Lou Olds, if you heard of Texas and Aryl Campbell, 532 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 2: this conference was the bomb digity. Fred Akers, the old 533 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 2: head coach of the Texas, longhruns was a beauty. I mean, 534 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,959 Speaker 2: there's a story. He once got a call from an 535 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 2: academic advisor who said, coach Acres, did you know your 536 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 2: quarter He's currently getting four f's and one D in 537 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 2: his classes. What do you think of that? Coach? He says, 538 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 2: I think he's spending entirely too much time on one subject. 539 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 2: That was Fred Akers. He also once said, after recruiting 540 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 2: Johnny Lamb Jones, Johnny jam Jones, and Johnny ham Jones, 541 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 2: I know you remember them. They all wanted to run track. 542 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 2: They said, coach will come to Texas, but you're gonna 543 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 2: have to let us run track. And of course Fred 544 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 2: Aker said, the only sport I hate worse than track 545 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 2: is field. But he got them all to come there. 546 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 2: Nice job, Mark anyway. But the bottom line is the 547 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 2: conference broke up. Tell me if this sounds familiar, because originally, ironically, 548 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 2: the Southwest Conference in their original streak, became its weakness, 549 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 2: and it was a fatal weakness. As you got to 550 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 2: the nineties, when college football really took off, there were 551 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 2: many large athletic programs that had multimillion dollar budgets and 552 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 2: they couldn't meet them as much less thrive. They needed 553 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 2: television revenue from not only football but basketball also. The 554 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 2: Southwest Conference had neither one. So by nineteen ninety four, 555 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 2: everybody knew that a breakup was coming. It was inevitable. 556 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 2: It feels like if you look back a year and ago, 557 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 2: a year ago for the Pack tworls, it feels like 558 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 2: that is seemingly inevitable. So the Southwest Conference was torn up, 559 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 2: and it was by the way, it was very much 560 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 2: tarnished by all the recruiting scandals and NCAA probations and 561 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 2: multiple schools I mean happened to SMU they got the 562 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: death penalty, and matter of fact, there were six or 563 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: seven schools. I think only Baylor and Rice were the 564 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 2: only two and then have some kind of penalty. So 565 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 2: that week in the conference in nineteen ninety two, Arkansas 566 00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 2: said were out. They jumped to the SEC, and we 567 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 2: know why because the SEC had teams in nine states. 568 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 2: They boasted nineteen percent of the nation's TV sets. They 569 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 2: delivered a much larger audience than Arkansas could take advantage 570 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 2: of that TV network. By now, the Southwest Conference was 571 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 2: only Texas schools and they only had six percent of 572 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: the nation's TV sets. So what happened? The conference dissolved. 573 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,239 Speaker 2: Texas Texas A and m Texas Tech and Baylor, well, 574 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 2: they all went to the Big twelve. They joined Oklahoma 575 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State. They were charter members of the Southwest Conference 576 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: who left the league back in the I think sixties 577 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: or seventies, and two divisions were formed, and so they 578 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 2: leave to join the Big eight and combine. They were 579 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 2: the Big twelve. Houston was a state school again no money. 580 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 2: They ended up going to the brand new Conference USA. Steve, 581 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 2: Here's where I circle back to you, so I know 582 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 2: you remember that. Do you draw any parallels and before 583 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,719 Speaker 2: we get there, what has been your general takeaway of 584 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 2: what you've witnessed in the last twenty four hours? And 585 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 2: then Pack twelve. 586 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 8: I think the most damning thing against the PAC twelve 587 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 8: is that Oregon and Washington would leave even though they're 588 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 8: not getting full revenue shares in their new conference. The 589 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 8: Big ten has a TV deal already and it's not 590 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 8: going to finish till twenty thirty. And still they say 591 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 8: leaving the PAC twelve for that is better than staying 592 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 8: in the PAC twelve. The irony also is that you 593 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 8: already had the Colorado announcement they're leaving the Pac Twelve 594 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 8: for the Big Twelve, so they're kind of going back. 595 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 8: You mentioned those four schools from added in to make 596 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 8: the Big Eight the Big twelve, so in some things. 597 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 3: That's a little circular. 598 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 8: I love the geography of the Big Twelve and adding Arizona, 599 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 8: Arizona State, Utah. All of this is great geographically. 600 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 2: So what do you think happens to Stanford, cal Washington State, 601 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 2: and Oregon State. 602 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 8: The hope, just as a fan, is that they get 603 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 8: absorbed into the Mountain West and then they're playing San 604 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 8: Diego State and Boise States every year and then you 605 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 8: at least have something. 606 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 2: The concern Stanford is an elite academic school, and I 607 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 2: think you know football, basketball not with standing, and certainly baseball. 608 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: They're a fixture in the College World Series. They have 609 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: an athletic department that features twenty seven sports. A lot 610 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 2: of them are the Olympic sports. Stanford puts a lot 611 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 2: of athletes into the Olympics. Yes, with male and female. 612 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 2: That requires a thirty million dollars budget. So Stanford ends 613 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 2: up at the Mountain West. Where do they get the money? 614 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: You cannot use endowment money Stanford's got enough money in 615 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,080 Speaker 2: their endowment buy the Big Ten, like forty billion dollars 616 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 2: with a be which you can't use it for sports. 617 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 2: I think Stanford should go into Pendent. What do you think. 618 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 8: In that Notre Dame has set the roadmap for being independent. 619 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 8: I'm sure they would fancy themselves able to do that. 620 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,479 Speaker 8: I still think as a fan that I see games 621 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 8: with you know, like when San Diego State we all 622 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 8: thought the PAC twelve was going to be a real 623 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,239 Speaker 8: conference in San Diego State was going to join it. 624 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 8: I would have enjoyed those matchups San Diego State against 625 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 8: Washington every year or something that's not gonna happen now. 626 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 8: I hope that we still have something of a regular 627 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 8: college conference that represents the Western US. 628 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 2: Oh, I think that will happen. I just can't tell 629 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 2: you how. But what bothers me more than anything, Steve 630 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 2: is I think this was purely avoidable. You've got to 631 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 2: go back several years. But even two weeks ago, Steve 632 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 2: at the PAC twelve media days here in Las Vegas, 633 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 2: George Khliakkov got up in the podium with a straight 634 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: face and said the PAC twelve has never been in better. 635 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 8: Shit, says the man making what three million a year 636 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,200 Speaker 8: would have me stealing, And you're right that it was 637 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 8: on fire already before he took over the job. Larry Scott, 638 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,719 Speaker 8: who took home I think over fifty million for his 639 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 8: decade or so. In the PAC twelve, he's the guy 640 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 8: that fingers justifiably are pointed at because, as we on 641 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 8: last night's show, went over to try and attempt to 642 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 8: create a network for your conference from scratch, was in 643 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 8: itself an awful idea and didn't follow what other conferences 644 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 8: has done. You're trying to get money that the Big 645 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 8: ten has because the Big ten has a network. Well, 646 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 8: the Big ten joined with Fox, a TV company, to 647 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 8: help me start their TV now instead, he as Pack 648 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 8: twelve commissioner, is not only starting from scratch. You literally 649 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 8: have to buy everything yourself, create all the affiliations and 650 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 8: distribution yourself. And then he says, let's center it in 651 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 8: the most expensive real estate that will of course have 652 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 8: to pay for a month after month. And they didn't 653 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 8: have the justification for those kinds of costs because it 654 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 8: didn't have the distribution. It got to the point where 655 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 8: Pack twelve cities could not see PAC twelve network, and 656 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 8: so that wasn't the only problem, but it was a 657 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 8: large one because it trickles down to athletic departments not 658 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 8: getting the kind of money that they see other conferences getting. 659 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 8: The problem also was, what was it a year ago? 660 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 8: The PAC twelve could have jumped the Big twelve, could 661 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 8: have jumped the gun and gotten into the TV game 662 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 8: of whatever our next contract is, let's start talking now. 663 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 8: And they didn't do that, and the Big twelve, which 664 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 8: was not looking good, is looking quite good now. 665 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 2: All true. I think the fatal flaws which you just 666 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 2: alluded to, you go back to Larry scrats grand his 667 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 2: grand plan. You know, Lily Tomlin once said I always 668 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 2: wanted to be somebody. I just wish I'd been more specific. Well, look, 669 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 2: the PAC twelve could have avoided this had they just 670 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 2: simply copied the Big twelve Big ten model, And they 671 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: could have easily done that to your point a year ago. 672 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 2: The irony is, and this is ironic for having this 673 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 2: conversation thirteen months ago. It was the Big twelve that 674 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 2: looked like they might be on the ropes, and you 675 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 2: had Big twelve schools staring the PAC twelve in the 676 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 2: face and the PAC twelve didn't move briskly enough. And 677 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 2: again this last year they showed the carrot ended up 678 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 2: with a stick. We're gonna get a TV deal. We're 679 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 2: gonna get a TV deal, and whether they get this 680 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 2: fugesy Apple deal that no one was a part of. 681 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 2: And so again I think there was some I won't 682 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 2: use the word deception, but certainly tremendous mismanagement. Good stuff, Steve. 683 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: Coming up, I'm gonna circle back to soccer, specifically the 684 00:34:55,200 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 2: US women's team. In addition to not winning their group, 685 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,239 Speaker 2: they lost something else. They lost something else that is 686 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 2: fans we are temporarily gonna pay the price for I 687 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 2: will explain.

Comedy Live 696 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 2: from Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio, Tirack dot com Studios. 697 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 2: We'll take you up to three am Pacific, six am 698 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 2: Eastern coming up top of the hour mark Medina Medina 699 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 2: Magic every Saturday midnight. Plenty of news this week in 700 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: the NBA we covered all and of course now we 701 00:35:56,200 --> 00:36:00,720 Speaker 2: are two hours and ten minutes away from kickoff between 702 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 2: the USA and Sweden, the first time they've ever met 703 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 2: in the knockout round, always in the group stage, and 704 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 2: it's been a pretty even matchup. H and it's hard 705 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 2: to it's hard to not have a little bit of 706 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,960 Speaker 2: a bad taste in your mouth from the US. And 707 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 2: they're less instellar performance against Portugal. Yes, they are in 708 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: the knockout round, barely zero a nil nil tie against Portugal. 709 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 2: They did be at Vietnam three nothing, but to juxtapose 710 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 2: that against the Netherlands who dominated Vietnam seven nothings. So 711 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 2: the women's team will finish as a runner up in 712 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 2: the World Cup group for just the second time in 713 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 2: their history. And one of the most tangible on field 714 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 2: differences between when the US has looked okay and not 715 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 2: it has been when Rose level has been on the field. 716 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 2: Late in the first half against Portugal, Rose Level attempted 717 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 2: to pry the ball from a Portuguese midfielder, and she prodded. 718 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 2: She couldn't do it. It was fruitless. She attempted again 719 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,320 Speaker 2: the same thing. It was very clumsy. She toppled to 720 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 2: the ground, ended up getting her legs tied up into 721 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 2: the player in possession. It was probably unintentional, may have been, 722 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 2: but it was enough to elicit a yellow card from 723 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 2: the center official. Combined that with the yellow card, Rose 724 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,760 Speaker 2: Level drew against the Netherlands. Guess what, no Rose Level 725 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 2: here at two am Pacific, five am Eastern. So what 726 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 2: will coach Andtonowski do? Will he put Savannah Demelo back 727 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 2: in the lineup? Asley Sanchez? Christy Mwis you know Tiffany 728 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 2: Rodman didn't play a lot last time? Maybe not at all. 729 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 2: This team is inexperienced and Alex Alex Morgan's been muted. 730 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 2: She's struggling mightily. She starts every match. She looks to 731 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 2: be bothered by her performance. She's showing it on her face, 732 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 2: in her body language. The shot volumes there. The shot 733 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:05,280 Speaker 2: call has not been particularly great. But I'm not trying 734 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:09,320 Speaker 2: to split hears here or point fingers, but facts as facts. 735 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 2: Someone's gotta step up and be a hero or the 736 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 2: US and their chances of a three people will go down. 737 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 2: But regardless, here's what we lost. When you don't win 738 00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 2: your group stage, you don't play any more games in 739 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 2: primetime in the Women's World Cup. That's what a second 740 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 2: place finish in Group B gets you. It relegates you 741 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 2: to the less than ideal match times. You see, the 742 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 2: round of sixteen is going to be played at two 743 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 2: am Pacific, five am Eastern. Should the US prevail, the 744 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 2: quarterfinals will be next Friday, August eleventh, at three thirty 745 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 2: am Eastern, twelve thirty Pacific b during my show. Again, 746 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 2: should the US prevail to the semi finals, they played Tuesday, 747 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:55,400 Speaker 2: August fifteenth at four am Eastern, one am Pacific, and 748 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 2: then of course the final regardless if they make it, 749 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 2: that was going to be at six and eastern. Anyway, 750 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 2: you know, they did the best they can. We're all watching. 751 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 2: This is fun. I love it now. Knockout round matches 752 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 2: in prime time. You gotta give it up because when 753 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 2: the US played the Netherlands, it was one of the 754 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 2: most watched matches in the entire tournament. And you have 755 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,120 Speaker 2: to wonder what it would have been if US had 756 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 2: played Sweden of course in more and more of a 757 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 2: primetime situation. And so the US is a big time 758 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 2: draw and you almost would have thought that maybe they 759 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 2: make us, you know, Fox makes a you know exception, 760 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 2: but no, no, you are rewarded for winning your group stage. 761 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 2: And so in addition to losing in the group stage 762 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 2: or check that they well they didn't win their group 763 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 2: e fans like you and me and the rest of 764 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 2: us would lose out seeing the team in prime time. 765 00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 2: So will have to make do kick off here now 766 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 2: in two hours, in six minutes coming up. It's that 767 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 2: time of week. Plenty of news in the NBA, including 768 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 2: a new big contract which as we scratching my head 769 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 2: a little bit, that's why we bring on Mark Medina 770 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 2: Medina Magic coming up top of the hours.

You didn't think 781 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 2: we'd forget about the NBA, did you? Yep, it's midnight. 782 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 2: It's that time of course. Mark Medina, our Fox Sports 783 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 2: Radio NBA guru, joins us every Saturday midnight Pacific on 784 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show because the NBA is twenty four 785 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 2: to seven, three sixty five. Mark, how are you, buddy? 786 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 9: I'm doing well. I might not be doing as well 787 00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 9: as Anthony Davis, who just got this amazing three year, 788 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 9: one hundred eighty six million dollar extension, but you know 789 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 9: my contracts slightly lower than that. 790 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 2: Well, we need to get you a new agent. You 791 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 2: can reegotiate. This is what we need to do, but 792 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 2: at least you don't load manage. I'm going to be 793 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 2: calling Anthony Davis a million dollar man. You and I 794 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 2: both know he's only going to average sixty games a year, 795 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 2: so he's going to be making about a million dollars 796 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 2: a game. Tell me one of the Lakers did this? 797 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:37,720 Speaker 5: Well? 798 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 9: Look, you know this is what radio is all about 799 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 9: So if you if you disagree, by all means, chime in. 800 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,560 Speaker 9: But I think that the Lakers actually made the right 801 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 9: move in doing this for a few reasons. It's all 802 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 9: through the pragmatic lens. They actually would save money by 803 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 9: extending him now, as opposed to waiting next season when 804 00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,240 Speaker 9: he could potentially opt out of his deal and become 805 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,439 Speaker 9: a free agent. Now you might be wondering, well, why 806 00:42:03,520 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 9: keep them in the first place. I think at number one, 807 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 9: as long as Lebron James is on your team, you 808 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 9: still got to keep that championship window. And with that, 809 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 9: I don't think if they traded Anthony Davis they would 810 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 9: get any value of return, partly because other teams have 811 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 9: concerns about his durability, but I think just the nature 812 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 9: of trades you want to get I think that fair 813 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 9: comparable player, whether it's a star player that can compliment 814 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 9: Lebron or a handful of role players. So I think 815 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 9: that this really falls in line with what the Lakers 816 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 9: strategy for the beginning free agency was all about, with 817 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 9: maintaining continuity even though they're not the championship favorites. Their 818 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,399 Speaker 9: road to the Western Conference Finals last year, the last 819 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 9: season really hinged on Lebron ad reasonably being healthy and 820 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 9: play at a high level and relying on a lot 821 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:55,799 Speaker 9: of role players to become the composite third star. And 822 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 9: obviously for the Anthony Davis's end, he wanted to accept 823 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 9: this deal. Now, it is a lot of money, but 824 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 9: it's also more security and case injuries happened. But I 825 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,960 Speaker 9: think from the Lakers then it does make sense. And 826 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 9: it was so much that, you know, Anthony Davis's agent, 827 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 9: Rich Paul told me that the Lakers didn't even bring up, 828 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:17,880 Speaker 9: you know, the injury component because they feel like, relatively speaking, 829 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 9: as you said, he's not playing all e two. But 830 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 9: when he missed twenty games last season, that was with 831 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 9: his right foot, that was in December and January after that, 832 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 9: he didn't have a major injury. So while we're not 833 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,640 Speaker 9: going to be naive to say he's never going to 834 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,320 Speaker 9: get hurt again, I think the Lakers were relatively encouraged 835 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 9: that he showed that he can play at a higher 836 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 9: level and he can avoid those major ailments moving forward. 837 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was being slightly facetious tongue, and I said, 838 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 2: I do know the business aspect of why the Lakers 839 00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 2: did it. But I will tell you what I would 840 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 2: find concerning how many more years do you think Lebron 841 00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 2: plays legitimately with the Lakers? 842 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 9: Well, look, yes, here's Lesslos tract. He has said that 843 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 9: he wants to play with Broddy James. I mean obviously 844 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 9: as a off Shririfficcy if you can even come back. 845 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 9: But that's a story for another day. But as far 846 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 9: as Lebron, I think that this will be his final contract. 847 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 9: At the end of the day, he's entering his twenty 848 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 9: first season. So this very much was I think to 849 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:23,000 Speaker 9: the point we're making let's try to give Lebron as 850 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 9: much chance to win, but also set themselves up for 851 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 9: his eventual retirement. 852 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 2: So what does his contract look like the three final 853 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 2: years when there's no Lebron on the Lakers. 854 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 9: Well, that's going to be very interesting. I think that 855 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 9: they're you know, obviously going to have much clarity when 856 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 9: Lebron retires, when when they see, okay, we have three 857 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 9: years left on eighties contract, as he actually fit to 858 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,319 Speaker 9: be the number one guy. This is something that they 859 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 9: had tried to do ever since. Actually he signed on 860 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 9: board with the Lakers in the twenty nineteen twenty season, 861 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,839 Speaker 9: because Lebron James is one of the initiators and saying 862 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 9: that the offense is going to run through him. He's 863 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:03,720 Speaker 9: going to be the hard and soul of the team. 864 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:06,800 Speaker 9: He's going to orchestrate things. But ideally they want Anthony 865 00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 9: Davis to be the number one guy in scoring, and 866 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 9: you know we saw flashes of that now. I think 867 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,479 Speaker 9: to answer your question, can't he become that number one guy? 868 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:20,360 Speaker 9: I had my skepticism, but I think for the Lakers 869 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 9: and they felt like, let's just take care of this now. 870 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 9: So we know that Lebron has a sidekick that has 871 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,439 Speaker 9: good on court chemistry with and if it doesn't play 872 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 9: out the fruition of him being the guy that can 873 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 9: carry the mantle, you know what, we can you know, 874 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 9: start the rebuilding process and go from there. 875 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 2: All right, So three weeks from tonight at the USA 876 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 2: will tip it off against New Zealand and the Phoebe 877 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 2: World Cup. Very young roster coach by Steve Kerr. The 878 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 2: team finished seventh in the Phoebe World Cup back in 879 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:54,439 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen. Tell the folks about what this World Cup 880 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 2: is all about? What your thoughts are on this roster? 881 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 9: Well, look, you know, World Cup is never going to 882 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 9: be the same as the Olympics, and the roster shows 883 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 9: that because the top tier guys always saved themselves for 884 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 9: the Olympics. But look, they have a lot of great 885 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 9: players on the team that are young, up and coming 886 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 9: I don't even say up and coming players. They've been 887 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:17,320 Speaker 9: legitimate All Star type players. You have and Anthony Edwards. 888 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,240 Speaker 9: You have a Tyres Halliburn, you have a Brandon Ingram. 889 00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 9: You know the Lakers with Austin Reeves. So it's a 890 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 9: lot of, you know, good mixture of you know, second 891 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 9: tier guys that could be All Stars and all that. 892 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,600 Speaker 9: And Steve Kerr he's the head coach for the first 893 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 9: time with Team USA. He was an assistant coach with 894 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 9: Greg Popovich. When you know, they play in the Olympics 895 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 9: in Tokyo. In won gold in the previous World Cup, 896 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 9: and so I think to some degree, because they did 897 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 9: not do well in that last World Cup that that 898 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 9: is an eye opener for this current group that they 899 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 9: got to take this seriously. The world has gotten more 900 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 9: and more competitive in basketball. But it's also I think 901 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 9: I think it also illustrates that, you know, even if 902 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 9: the US is bringing its best effort. That's not going 903 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 9: to necessarily guarantee anything. So yeah, it's not going to 904 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 9: be perilous enough that they're not going to make the Olympics, 905 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 9: but it's definitely not inevitable that they finished in first 906 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 9: place here. 907 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,880 Speaker 2: And of course Paulo Benkaro Geelan Brunson' right, it's a 908 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 2: young talented roster. Talk about the piece you wrote regarding 909 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 2: Dirk Noovinsky and don Nelson. 910 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,919 Speaker 9: It was fascinating. I connected with Nelly. He's in he's 911 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 9: enjoying life at Bali, Hawaii, that's where he lives. But 912 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 9: I talked with him because he has so many connections 913 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 9: with some of the Hall of Fame candidates. Greg Popovic, 914 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 9: you mentioned Dirk Navinsky and what he talked about to 915 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,840 Speaker 9: me with Dirk is, look, he and his son, Donnie Nelson, 916 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 9: who you know, both of whom had different positions with 917 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 9: the Dallas Mavericks organization at the time. They discovered Dirk 918 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 9: at a young age so much they did basically try 919 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 9: to shield him from being able to interview with other 920 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 9: teams and out with other teams. They saw him at 921 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 9: a local YMCA in Dallas before he would playing the 922 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 9: Nike Hoops summit in San Antonio, and at that point 923 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 9: don Nelson told me that that is the most talented 924 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 9: eighteen year old he had ever seen, and he knew 925 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 9: at that point we got to draft him. He's going 926 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:19,879 Speaker 9: to be special. Now, with that said, he was forewarned 927 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 9: from his father, I don't know if my son's ready 928 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 9: to join the NBA, and he's not going to feel 929 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 9: comfortable in the US. You're going to have to be 930 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 9: his American dad, because he's going to be homesick. It's 931 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 9: going to be an adjustment with learning the language barrier. 932 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,400 Speaker 9: And so don Nelson was telling me about his initial 933 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 9: struggles and how Steve Nash really was instrumental in helping 934 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 9: him adapt to the culture and uplift his confidence. But 935 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 9: after that first year, he felt like Dirk was off 936 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 9: and running. You also look at two thousand and three, 937 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 9: they're playing the San Antonio Spurst in the West Finals. 938 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 9: He has a knee injury, and don Nelson determines, you 939 00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 9: know what, I'm not going to risk playing Dirk even 940 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,720 Speaker 9: in this pivotal playoff series because I think that this injury, 941 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 9: if he plays on it could compromise and actually end 942 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:12,760 Speaker 9: his career and Mark Cuban felt otherwise, and don Nelson 943 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 9: told me that he feels like that led to his 944 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 9: eventual firing a few seasons later. And what's interesting is 945 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 9: Dirk has been asked about this and he said, in hindsight, 946 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 9: it was a good decision that don Nelson made with 947 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 9: protecting him from himself, and he admitted, you know what, 948 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:30,800 Speaker 9: I couldn't play on that knee. So it is that 949 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 9: what if if he wound up getting it out in 950 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 9: that playoffs and han't forbid, something happened. Maybe he doesn't 951 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 9: have that prolific twenty one a year NBA career where 952 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 9: he has a championship, all these playoff appearances in that 953 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 9: sixth play spot on the NBA's all time scoring list. 954 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 2: Let's wrap it up and switch gears here. My daughter 955 00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,480 Speaker 2: was a big time soccer player and played Division one 956 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 2: soccer and back in nineteen ninety nine, she was with 957 00:49:55,239 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 2: a youth team travel national team called the Michigan Hawks. 958 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,839 Speaker 2: Also produced Kate Sibrero, who played on the nineteen ninety 959 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 2: nine team with Mia Ham, Brandy Chestein, and Julie Foudy. 960 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 2: I had access to all of them on a tour 961 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 2: they did in two thousand interviewed. All of them spent 962 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,799 Speaker 2: time first class. Tell the folks what they're up to now. 963 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 2: By the way, Julie Foudi is from El Toro. Yeah, 964 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:19,360 Speaker 2: we both used to eat at the Don Jose's restaurant, 965 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 2: Nel Toro, which I don't think they're anymore, But that's 966 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:22,320 Speaker 2: a maybe, Tami. 967 00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:25,319 Speaker 9: Well, look, I think that when you look at you know, 968 00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 9: Mia Hamm and you know some of the other the 969 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 9: stars he mentioned with Julie Faudi and Brandy Chase, and 970 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,360 Speaker 9: they've been doing a lot to stay involved with soccer. 971 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,920 Speaker 9: I mean, they all have their own foundations that really 972 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 9: helped raise funds with helping with women's sports, you know, 973 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:49,120 Speaker 9: addressing inequities and Title nine concerns. But I think they're 974 00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 9: also connected to the game because Brandy, for example, chess 975 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 9: and she's been coaching at different academies. She's been a 976 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:59,720 Speaker 9: commentator over the years for soccer. Julie Faudi is probably 977 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 9: the lead analysts when it comes to women's soccer at ESPN, 978 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,359 Speaker 9: And so I think, you know, as we're carrying up 979 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 9: for whether you know us can strike gold in this 980 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,919 Speaker 9: year's World Cup, the original stars of that World Cup 981 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 9: team have still found a way to stay involved with 982 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 9: the sport. 983 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:23,720 Speaker 2: They're amazing people Mia Ham, of course, Mary Nomar Garcia Para, 984 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 2: and she has a foundation for her brother Garrett. If 985 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:28,799 Speaker 2: you ever want to have a good conversation with her, 986 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 2: ask her about her she'll warm right up to you. 987 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 2: It's a very it's a very poignant, sad story. But 988 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,319 Speaker 2: she created a foundation. And of course we all know 989 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:40,040 Speaker 2: what Brandy Chastain's claim to fame. These are really cool people. 990 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 2: She did the commercial with Kevin Garnett. I could really 991 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 2: spend a lot of time.

What kind of brand new fool you 1032 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 2: followed by what my name? And we will follow the 1033 00:53:55,840 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 2: kickoff coming up USA, Sweden. All right, Friday's realignment. The 1034 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 2: more I think about it, this is one of the 1035 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 2: most volcanic days in the history of college athletics period, 1036 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 2: wild historic sports. And in sports you have winners and 1037 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:15,000 Speaker 2: you have losers, and we're just starting to sort the 1038 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 2: poop from the manure in what I think you could 1039 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,920 Speaker 2: characterize this as a depressing fireworks show. So who are 1040 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 2: the winners? We'll just kind of dart back and forth here. 1041 00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 2: This is non scientific. You know who the winners are though. 1042 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 2: College administrators. Yep, those seven digit paychecks they're going to 1043 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:41,719 Speaker 2: keep coming right in nicer suits, better ties. As all 1044 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 2: these schools get together, they hold votes. The final outcome 1045 00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,960 Speaker 2: was the implosion of the PAC twelve. The PAC twelve 1046 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 2: was a foundational conference. Don't poo poo that they provided 1047 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 2: a college football landscape that was at one time great 1048 00:54:56,520 --> 00:55:01,160 Speaker 2: for fans, great for athletes, and it was great g geographically. 1049 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:05,279 Speaker 2: Now it's it might be worse for fans, it might 1050 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:07,360 Speaker 2: be worse for athletes, and now it's not going to 1051 00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 2: make any sense geographically. But oh damn. The torpedo is 1052 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:16,040 Speaker 2: when it comes to potential common sense. You've got presidents, 1053 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,880 Speaker 2: you've got chancellors, you've got ads. They're all going to 1054 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 2: be congratulated by their regents and oh yeah, they'll be 1055 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:26,080 Speaker 2: getting nice bonuses. I believe so. And I don't think 1056 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:27,960 Speaker 2: any of that money will trickle down to the athletes, 1057 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,400 Speaker 2: although we'll get to some menil stuff later in the show. 1058 00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 2: But no question, the administrators are going to pack themselves 1059 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 2: on the back for enriching the pockets and the university 1060 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:40,799 Speaker 2: and claiming that the welfare of the student athlete, well, 1061 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 2: that was the forefront of this decision. Meanwhile, it feels, 1062 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 2: at least now that the decision to do This is 1063 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:52,680 Speaker 2: the opposite. Look. Everybody's out for themselves. Man. You know 1064 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 2: the story about the two guys out in the forest. 1065 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:58,840 Speaker 2: They're best friends. All of a sudden, the bear starts 1066 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:02,919 Speaker 2: to chase after them. One of the buddies kneels down, 1067 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:05,880 Speaker 2: reaches into his knapsack, puts on his Nike tennis shoes. 1068 00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 2: His friend looks at him and says, oh, yeah, yeah, 1069 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 2: you think those tennis shoes are gonna help you out 1070 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:13,360 Speaker 2: run that bear? He says, I don't have to outrun 1071 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:19,560 Speaker 2: the bear, I just have to outrun you. Everyone is 1072 00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:23,800 Speaker 2: out for themselves. Make no mistake who's in charge. I 1073 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 2: don't know. If you find out, call me, tell me, 1074 00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:30,759 Speaker 2: tweet at me. This is producing chaos. Maybe a little 1075 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 2: gallous humor, nice job Mark. As always, truth of the 1076 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 2: matter is it really shows the actual self interest and 1077 00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 2: the fact that all decisions are typically financially motivated. So 1078 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:49,359 Speaker 2: much for the student athlete, the amateur athlete. A few 1079 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 2: were gonna benefit from this. We're not sure how the 1080 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 2: rest are, but the winners, no doubt about it. College 1081 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:59,920 Speaker 2: administrators losers top of the list, Oregon State and war 1082 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 2: Washington State. Nobody took it up that took us more 1083 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 2: than those two schools on Friday. What the hell are 1084 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 2: their prospects for future conference memberships bleak at best? What 1085 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:16,320 Speaker 2: is the prospect for increased television revenue? If you're a 1086 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 2: Washington State Cougar and Oregon State Beaver two good programs. 1087 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:24,040 Speaker 2: Oregon State won ten games last year, Washington State on 1088 00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:28,480 Speaker 2: the uptick, good program. Whatever they're going to get now, 1089 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 2: at least in the near future from what I can see, 1090 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 2: maybe it'll change. I don't know. It'll be a fraction 1091 00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 2: of what they earned in the PAC twelve. Now, in 1092 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:42,600 Speaker 2: the past fiscal year, the PAC twelve distributed thirty seven 1093 00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 2: million dollars to their members. You're hearing these stories about 1094 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 2: the Mountain West, as Jason Martin pointed out, aptly six 1095 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 2: point six million per school. And I live in Mountain 1096 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:57,160 Speaker 2: West country, and I like the Mountain West UNLV Reno, 1097 00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 2: Fresno State, San Diego State, Boise State, Utah State, San 1098 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,800 Speaker 2: Jose State. You get it. It's a nice little conference. 1099 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 2: Who got to the finals of the NCAA basketball Tournament, Yes, 1100 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 2: you're Aztecs. Those schools get six point six million. So 1101 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 2: if you're Oregon State in Washington State, you go from 1102 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 2: thirty seven million to six point six and this is 1103 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,439 Speaker 2: all theoretical. You can tell me you had a good day. 1104 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 2: At least. I think the Apple Cup between Washington State 1105 00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,040 Speaker 2: and Washington will survive. So far we believe it will. 1106 00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 2: In the Civil War between Oregon State and Oregon will survive. 1107 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 2: But as Oregon and Washington head to the Big Ten, 1108 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 2: the Beavers and Cougars, they're heading due a reality that 1109 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 2: would be I believe any member of any Power five 1110 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 2: conference's biggest fear like being relegated. They're not going to 1111 00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:50,640 Speaker 2: be in a Power five conference anytime soon that I 1112 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:56,840 Speaker 2: can see another winner from Friday, Well, believe it or not. 1113 00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 2: Big twelve commissioner Brett your Mark he took a risk. 1114 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 2: He re upped the Big twelve's TV partners ESPN and Fox, 1115 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 2: rather than put the league on the open market like 1116 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 2: George Kleiokoff did with the PAC twelve. The decision to 1117 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:15,640 Speaker 2: jump the PAC twelve in line as both networks sorted 1118 00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:19,480 Speaker 2: out their financials. By the way, and I know ESPN's 1119 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 2: in the midst of the layoffs and alleged declining revenue, 1120 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 2: but what Brett Yormark did was truly put the Big 1121 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 2: Twelve in stable position. He made it a better choice 1122 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 2: for a third of the PAC twelve when they took 1123 00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:40,440 Speaker 2: a look at that league's media deal and their negotiations 1124 00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:43,800 Speaker 2: and say, hey, I like to hand withch you guys 1125 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 2: for a while, Billy Ray, Valentine capcor I want to 1126 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,320 Speaker 2: hand with you guys for a while. PAC twelve their 1127 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 2: media negotiations right down the dumper and the negotiation that 1128 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 2: almost certainly would have played out differently if the Big 1129 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,360 Speaker 2: Twelve had waited to negotiate with other suitors, the Big 1130 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 2: twelve would in been the PAC twelve probably, but give 1131 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 2: it up to their commissioner. Conversely, loser. Sorry, with all 1132 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 2: due respect, former PAC twelve commissioner Larry Scott Kleikoff will 1133 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:13,000 Speaker 2: go down as the commissioner who failed to secure a 1134 01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:15,840 Speaker 2: satisfactory TV deal, which I think spelled the in for 1135 01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 2: the PAC twelve. But it was Larry Scott's mismanagement of 1136 01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:21,560 Speaker 2: the conference that put Kleakoff in that du or diposition 1137 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:25,480 Speaker 2: in the first place. Fewer than twelve years after signing 1138 01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 2: the most lucrative television contract in college sports history, Yes, 1139 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 2: you're that right, the PAC twelve has essentially dissolved. I'm 1140 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 2: gonna pick this up in just a minute because we 1141 01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 2: got a lot more to get to. But hey, it's 1142 01:00:39,480 --> 01:00:42,400 Speaker 2: sweeps week. We gotta get to our guy, Steve the 1143 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 2: Seger with the latest. 1144 01:00:44,680 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 8: Good evening once again, and let's go over the MLB 1145 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 8: action from Saturday. First off, the late game was at Anaheim. 1146 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:53,880 Speaker 8: Seattle sent the Angels to a fifth straight loss, three 1147 01:00:53,880 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 8: to two. In San Diego on FS one, the Padres 1148 01:00:57,640 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 8: ended the Dodgers four game winning streak eight to three, 1149 01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 8: three seven runs in the bottom of the eighth for 1150 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:05,520 Speaker 8: San Diego Manny Machado a home run in three RBIs. 1151 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 8: The Dodgers are first in the NL West, three games 1152 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 8: out of San Francisco. Still, the Giants lost at Oakland, 1153 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,040 Speaker 8: giving up a run bottom of the eighth. Two won 1154 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 8: the final. The Giants offense was held to just three hits. 1155 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 8: Philadelphia ended Kansas City seven game winning streak nine to six, 1156 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,160 Speaker 8: Saint Louis over Colorado six to two, and the White 1157 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,360 Speaker 8: Sox won at Cleveland seven to four. There was a 1158 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:28,439 Speaker 8: fight in the sixth inning as Jose Ramirez knocked down 1159 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 8: the White Sox short stop Tim Anderson with a punch 1160 01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:34,040 Speaker 8: both were kicked out. Milwaukee's first place in the NL 1161 01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 8: Central now a game and a half over the slumping Reds. 1162 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,560 Speaker 8: Cubs are only two and a half back in the division. 1163 01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:41,440 Speaker 8: Milwaukee came back to win its game with a run 1164 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 8: bottom of the ninth, one bottom of the tenth to 1165 01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 8: beat Pittsburgh three to two. Meanwhile, Cincinnati lost at home 1166 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:50,000 Speaker 8: to Washington seven to three. Reds have dropped five in 1167 01:01:50,040 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 8: a row. The Cubs beat Atlanta eight to six, the 1168 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:55,439 Speaker 8: loss to Bryce Elder, who had been eight and two 1169 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 8: this year. Still the Braves record this year seventy and 1170 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 8: thirty eight. Matt Olson hit his thirty eighth homer. He 1171 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:05,600 Speaker 8: has ninety four RBIs already. Ronald Dacuna had three hits 1172 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,720 Speaker 8: in defeat. He's batting three forty one.

Saints running 1179 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 8: back Eno Benjamin is likely out for the year with 1180 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,680 Speaker 8: a ruptured achilles. The Broncos a quarterback Russell Wilson and 1181 01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:38,800 Speaker 8: starters will play in the exhibition opener on Friday. NASCAR 1182 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 8: suspended Noah Gregson in definitely for his actions on social media. 1183 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 8: In boxing, Jake Paul won by unanimous decision over Nate 1184 01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:49,200 Speaker 8: Diaz age thirty eight and their ten round fight in Dallas. 1185 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 3: It was about eight rounds to two. 1186 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 8: And guard Ricky Rubio will not play for Spain at 1187 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 8: the upcoming Basketball World Cup, pausing his career citing mental health. 1188 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:01,240 Speaker 8: USA basketball is practicing in Las Vegas for the Feeble 1189 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 8: World Cup that starts in late August. In fact, there's 1190 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 8: a USA versus Puerto Rico exhibition Monday night on FS 1191 01:03:07,600 --> 01:03:08,400 Speaker 8: one from Vegas. 1192 01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 2: Back to you, no truth to the rumor that Florida 1193 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:15,560 Speaker 2: politician Marco Rubio will take his place. By the way, Steve, 1194 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:17,040 Speaker 2: let's get you a weigh in on this. 1195 01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 8: I'd probably be grabbing a bottle of water. I can 1196 01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:21,960 Speaker 8: be pretty sure about that during the game. 1197 01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 2: There you go, listen, you follow these things. I was 1198 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:28,400 Speaker 2: a little harsh on Larry Scott, but I don't know 1199 01:03:28,440 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 2: that my comments are unjustified. 1200 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 3: Your thoughts correct. 1201 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 8: It is deserves It is one of the reasons he 1202 01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 8: specifically his decisions, his leadership is one of the reasons 1203 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:41,720 Speaker 8: the Pac twelve has gone down this awful road. Because 1204 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:44,360 Speaker 8: I'm someone that's always lived in the Western US my 1205 01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 8: entire life. I love the Pac twelve conference. As you 1206 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 8: mentioned the Olympic sports, they are dominant. There's a reason 1207 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 8: UCLA got by the mid nineties. I think it was 1208 01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 8: to the one hundred championships in their athletic departments because 1209 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 8: they've done so well in the Olympics sports, not just 1210 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 8: John Wooden basketball. USC and Stanford also great in the 1211 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 8: Olympic sports. 1212 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 3: In fact, there have. 1213 01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 8: Been plenty of Olympic years where USC, for example, wins 1214 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 8: more medals than most of the countries that compete in 1215 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,560 Speaker 8: the Olympics. This has been a great conference for sports, 1216 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 8: and yes there have been some good football moments as well. 1217 01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:23,080 Speaker 8: You talk about Oregon or Washington getting into the playoff. 1218 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:25,360 Speaker 8: We know what USC is going to do and what 1219 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 8: their history has been overall. To see that conference with 1220 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 8: this history turn into this is astounding and disappointing. 1221 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 2: And that's the operative word history. UCLA basketball owned a 1222 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 2: decade and a half. USC football owned a decade, a 1223 01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 2: couple of decades, and you mentioned, you know, the Olympic 1224 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 2: sports or the secondary sports. I'm proud to have played. 1225 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,959 Speaker 2: When I went to college, we played USC. I played 1226 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:54,960 Speaker 2: on Dato Field. I played at Saltail Field before it 1227 01:04:55,040 --> 01:04:57,360 Speaker 2: was called Jackie Robinson Field. I've been at the sunken 1228 01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:01,760 Speaker 2: Diamond Arizona State Packard Stadium. You're spot on. I mean, 1229 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 2: this is a foundational conference, five hundred and fifty three championships. 1230 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:09,280 Speaker 2: I don't think the PAC twelve gets the respect currently 1231 01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:11,480 Speaker 2: at some of the other major conferences. You get the 1232 01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:12,000 Speaker 2: last word. 1233 01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 8: If there was a PAC twelve network that was set 1234 01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 8: up and worked like the Big ten network, I'm not 1235 01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 8: sure we would even be having this conversation. 1236 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 2: So you should have happened. 1237 01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 8: You go back to Larry Scott and how he chose 1238 01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:28,360 Speaker 8: to do this, which is wrongly, and that in part 1239 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:30,840 Speaker 8: is why we are where we are now. 1240 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 2: All Right, Steve, thanks a lot, buddy. We'll see you 1241 01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 2: and wish you could stay all three, but I get it, 1242 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:39,520 Speaker 2: you're a busy guy. We'll do it next time. 1243 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:42,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, the shifts are not up to me. But yeah, 1244 01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:42,919 Speaker 3: that's how it's uh. 1245 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, wait, we got to fix that right now. No, 1246 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 2: just kidding. 1247 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 3: No, I'm not like Arnie Spanier, who thinks right here. 1248 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 2: That's right, Arnie gave you the night off. Nicely done, Steve, 1249 01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 2: nicely done. Of course. I love getting in the camp. 1250 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 2: All right, Steve, enjoy your Sunday. 1251 01:05:58,520 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 3: Thanks. 1252 01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 2: I'm also you're gonna tap George Khliakoff on the shoulder 1253 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:05,160 Speaker 2: as a loser in this as well. Okay, I get it. 1254 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 2: Kleiakoff inherited a league in a difficult spot. You really 1255 01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:13,840 Speaker 2: can't blame him completely for USC and UCLA's exit. But 1256 01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 2: a commissioner's most important, most viable job is negotiating that 1257 01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:20,000 Speaker 2: media rights deal. And I think he misplayed the public 1258 01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 2: handling of the negotiations because he had too many confident 1259 01:06:22,480 --> 01:06:25,280 Speaker 2: quotes that were followed by silence. And that's going to 1260 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:27,600 Speaker 2: hang around his neck like an albatross when they write 1261 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:30,240 Speaker 2: the history books. He used to say, the longer we 1262 01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:32,840 Speaker 2: wait for the deal, the better our options get right. 1263 01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 2: Our schools are committed to each other under the PAC twelve. 1264 01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:38,280 Speaker 2: We'll get our media rights deal done. Will announce the 1265 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:40,520 Speaker 2: deal I think the realignment that's going on in college 1266 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:42,640 Speaker 2: athletics will come to an end for the cycle. The 1267 01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 2: truth is, we got bigger fish to fry. You're the 1268 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 2: one getting fried now, big fellow. Sorry, and you were 1269 01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:50,560 Speaker 2: here in Las Vegas two weeks ago. He stood on 1270 01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 2: the podium. Other losers Callum Stanford. At least for now, 1271 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 2: one of them could get a light boat, lifeboat. Maybe 1272 01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 2: both of them get to a lifeboat. Their academic reputations, 1273 01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 2: I think, are always going to be recognized and are 1274 01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 2: always going to be in demand. That's gonna possibly get 1275 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,360 Speaker 2: them an invitation to the Big Ten. It certainly got 1276 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 2: the attention to Big Ten's presidents can't be ruled out 1277 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:16,120 Speaker 2: for now. But Collen Stafford, they don't control their own fates. 1278 01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 2: They compare banished to a secondary role for now. That's 1279 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:25,760 Speaker 2: what happened to Rece decades ago when the Southwest Conference dissolved. Frankly, 1280 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:29,840 Speaker 2: Callen Stanford. They're no better than Oregon State and Washington State. 1281 01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 2: Now their loser. Apple TV plus fans would have been 1282 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:36,360 Speaker 2: mad about it. But Apple, if they would have become 1283 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:38,919 Speaker 2: the chief rights holder to a major conference, that would 1284 01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:40,400 Speaker 2: have been a hell of a coup in the streaming world. 1285 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,080 Speaker 2: It would have been a spike in subscribers. It would 1286 01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:45,439 Speaker 2: have been a big spike in relevancy, and a big 1287 01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,280 Speaker 2: move by a company that's already in bed with the 1288 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:52,080 Speaker 2: with with Major League Baseball in the MLS. So not 1289 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:55,800 Speaker 2: their first barbecue. The winner clearly the Big Ten. What 1290 01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:58,080 Speaker 2: do we call it now, the Bigger Ten. I mean, 1291 01:07:58,120 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 2: they're always going to be the Big Ten because it's 1292 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 2: it's a copyrighted, you know, symbol. They haven't had ten 1293 01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:07,040 Speaker 2: teams in twenty eight years, twenty nine years, there's always 1294 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 2: been more. Look one year after they welcome USC and 1295 01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:14,960 Speaker 2: UCLI into the fold, now they double down. They get 1296 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:18,680 Speaker 2: Oregon and Washington. A little bit weird on the logistics 1297 01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,839 Speaker 2: and you're, you know, having a little issue with tradition. 1298 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 2: But this is a huge win for the Big Ten. 1299 01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 2: It makes their television property even more attractive and even 1300 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:33,400 Speaker 2: more competitive. Football conference. Mark my words. Oregon will have 1301 01:08:33,479 --> 01:08:35,720 Speaker 2: plenty of success in the Big Ten. I've already seen 1302 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 2: it with my own eyes. This is a premier league. 1303 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:41,160 Speaker 2: I think the Big Ten may have caught the SEC 1304 01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 2: now in terms of being a premier league. We shall 1305 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:47,639 Speaker 2: see on the field. Other winners USC and UCLA. Oh 1306 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:54,640 Speaker 2: my goodness. So look, now you have four teams in 1307 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 2: the big ten on the West coast. That'll make life 1308 01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 2: a little easier for USC and UCLA. And they're not 1309 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 2: revenue sports will appreciate it as well. Okay, not every 1310 01:09:02,640 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 2: road trip is a four hour flight, fair enough, losers. 1311 01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:12,400 Speaker 2: I already mentioned Washington state in Oregon state. I don't know, man, 1312 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:15,000 Speaker 2: I can't. I can't say their winner. Steve brought it 1313 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:18,719 Speaker 2: up earlier that they're they're they're joining at a reduced 1314 01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:23,120 Speaker 2: rate and that contract doesn't expire to twenty thirty. So 1315 01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 2: you go from charter members of a very historic conference. 1316 01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:29,760 Speaker 2: You might not think so, SEC. You might not think so. 1317 01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,759 Speaker 2: Way you live in the Eastern time zone. That Eastern 1318 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:37,679 Speaker 2: bias is real. The PAC eight, PAC ten, PAC twelve. Yes, 1319 01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:41,000 Speaker 2: it's an historic conference. These were charter members of that 1320 01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:45,439 Speaker 2: historic conference. Now they're going to go to interlopers on 1321 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:47,960 Speaker 2: a conference where most of their schools are back East. 1322 01:09:48,320 --> 01:09:50,720 Speaker 2: Not sure how much sense it really makes, but I 1323 01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:54,720 Speaker 2: will say, if it's their money, it's their idea, it's 1324 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 2: a it's a better move financially, even on the margins 1325 01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 2: than the modest PAC twelve deal that would have harmed 1326 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:04,720 Speaker 2: their exposure. But they're gonna have to fight for their 1327 01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:06,680 Speaker 2: existence in the new league. We know what they can 1328 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:08,760 Speaker 2: do out here. I remember what Don James and those 1329 01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:11,880 Speaker 2: Washington teams used to do. And trust me, Oregon can 1330 01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 2: play man. They're gonna be fine. Join the Big ten. 1331 01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,720 Speaker 2: It was probably the best move for both, but it 1332 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 2: might have been the lesser two eaves if you really 1333 01:10:20,439 --> 01:10:24,040 Speaker 2: analyze it. Other losers, how about Arizona State, Arizona and Utah. 1334 01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:26,880 Speaker 2: You joined the Big twelve. Yes, that was more attractive 1335 01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:30,400 Speaker 2: than holding together a PAC twelve glued together that had 1336 01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:33,519 Speaker 2: been stripped for parts. But these schools are leaving a 1337 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 2: conference that worked for them. Utah just joined the league 1338 01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:39,760 Speaker 2: ten years ago. They won the league the past two seasons. 1339 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:42,680 Speaker 2: USC gets all the love, but it was Utah that 1340 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:44,640 Speaker 2: won the league the past two years after moving up 1341 01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:47,760 Speaker 2: to the Power five. Arizona schools they'd only been in 1342 01:10:47,800 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 2: the PAC twelve, well, you know, flast forty fifty years. 1343 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 2: They're not original, but they were at a major conference, 1344 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,639 Speaker 2: had schools near them, league built around them. Now they're 1345 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 2: sharing a conference with West Virginia in Central Florida. I 1346 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,720 Speaker 2: don't get the geography. At least they're not stuck like 1347 01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:06,960 Speaker 2: Washington State and Oregon State. But I don't know how 1348 01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:10,680 Speaker 2: optimal it is for Arizona State Arizona Utah, although Arizona, 1349 01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 2: with their legendary basketball program, is joining a conference that's 1350 01:11:14,479 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 2: clearly the best basketball conference in the country. Right now, 1351 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:21,000 Speaker 2: I will write for now say Boise State, most of 1352 01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:24,959 Speaker 2: the Mountain West schools appear to be winners. Because Nevada, 1353 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:29,120 Speaker 2: Colorado State, not even Boise State, they never would have 1354 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:32,120 Speaker 2: gotten real consideration from the PAC twelve for membership, despite 1355 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 2: the fact that Boise State has been damn good on 1356 01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:36,280 Speaker 2: the field in football, not as good as they used 1357 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 2: to be with Chris Leavin. But the long and short 1358 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 2: of it is, whatever happens, this could be a potential merger. 1359 01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:45,120 Speaker 2: If they walk them in Oregon State, Washington State, we'll 1360 01:11:45,120 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 2: see what happens. We'll see what happens to Callen Stanford. 1361 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 2: But the Mountain West feels like it's a win winners. 1362 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:55,320 Speaker 2: Casual fans, if you don't watch a lot of college football, 1363 01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:58,840 Speaker 2: but you sample the big games, well, the most recognizable 1364 01:11:58,880 --> 01:12:01,400 Speaker 2: teams are going to be going head to head more often. 1365 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 2: Television networks are going to be bringing a lot of 1366 01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:09,479 Speaker 2: sold out ad time to many eyeballs. And you know, 1367 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,960 Speaker 2: I realize you may not get excited about Oregon Penn 1368 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:16,439 Speaker 2: State right now, but you might someday. Losers die hard 1369 01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:20,800 Speaker 2: college football fans. Right now, if you're a purist, this 1370 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 2: sport is temporarily unrecognizable from the one you fell in 1371 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:28,800 Speaker 2: love with. That's a fact. I mentioned tradition earlier with 1372 01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:32,840 Speaker 2: Aaron and Jason. Tradition was born of excitement and expectation 1373 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:38,200 Speaker 2: and historical perspective. Had you had a real measuring stick 1374 01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:40,799 Speaker 2: on what it meant for these two teams to get together, 1375 01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,519 Speaker 2: pick your two, whether it's Michigan, Ohio State, you know, 1376 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 2: you get the point. Okay. One of the alluring things 1377 01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:52,160 Speaker 2: about college football has always been its regional identity and 1378 01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 2: the differences in their leagues throughout the country, the distinctive, 1379 01:12:56,680 --> 01:13:01,480 Speaker 2: the distinctive competencies. That identity is known longer as distinctive. 1380 01:13:01,560 --> 01:13:05,519 Speaker 2: It's been great, it's been mirrored a little bit other losers. 1381 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 2: How about SMU in San Diego State. They were living 1382 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 2: in an alternative universe for a while. They thought they 1383 01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:13,120 Speaker 2: were gonna join the Pac twelve. They thought they would 1384 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:15,880 Speaker 2: join the Big Twelve. The SMU has wanted to go 1385 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:19,160 Speaker 2: back to the Big twelve. They've been passed on multiple times. 1386 01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:21,280 Speaker 2: I thought San Diego State was on their way to 1387 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:23,120 Speaker 2: the PAC twelve. They were waiting for the TV contract, 1388 01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 2: which again ended up to be a fugazy san Diego 1389 01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:30,600 Speaker 2: risked money, they risked relationships to Mountain West in the 1390 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 2: hopes they might get that call, that call in coming. 1391 01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:39,639 Speaker 2: San Diego State's a good sports program. Finally, more losers, 1392 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,639 Speaker 2: Well check that. Well, I'll tell you what. Well, fans 1393 01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 2: are most packed twelve teams. It's gonna be How difficult 1394 01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:47,679 Speaker 2: is it going to be to attend these road games? 1395 01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,000 Speaker 2: And there's no longer a major conference that's built along 1396 01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:53,400 Speaker 2: the West Coast. Okay, you want to fly to Texas, 1397 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:55,360 Speaker 2: you want to fly to Ohio. It's not gonna be easy. 1398 01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:58,200 Speaker 2: It's not gonna be cheap, it's gonna be tiresome. You're 1399 01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:01,160 Speaker 2: gonna have to deal with it. Right, other losers, all 1400 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,080 Speaker 2: the non revenue athletes at all these West Coast schools, 1401 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 2: right logistics staffs, if you forget about the people behind 1402 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:13,639 Speaker 2: the scenes that have to make these programs go. Another loser, right, 1403 01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:20,120 Speaker 2: common sense. Washington and Rutgers just should not be in 1404 01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 2: the same conference. Don't make me spell it out for you. 1405 01:14:23,800 --> 01:14:27,360 Speaker 2: The lifeblood of college football is regional rivalries. Now you 1406 01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 2: got Utah in Central Florida, Maryland and Oregon. I don't 1407 01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:32,879 Speaker 2: buy the idea that college football is going to be destroyed, 1408 01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 2: and it's sure isn't dying. Matter of fact, there's a 1409 01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,439 Speaker 2: chance it could make the sport more popular, but at 1410 01:14:40,479 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 2: what cost. You could argue that perhaps college football sold 1411 01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:50,320 Speaker 2: its soul on Friday and it's changing forever, maybe not 1412 01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:55,560 Speaker 2: for the better. Coming back coming up, some NFL tidbits 1413 01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:59,200 Speaker 2: I want to share with you as you get ready 1414 01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:02,360 Speaker 2: for the up iming NFL season.

What's the significant continuity matters? They win one 1430 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:07,040 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty two and seventy eight overall, including forty eight, 1431 01:16:07,439 --> 01:16:14,320 Speaker 2: thirty and one against the spread as underdogs. Continuity by 1432 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 2: the way, the last seventeen quarterbacks to lose their Super 1433 01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 2: Bowl debut Jalen Hurts, They've not returned to the Super Bowl. Now, 1434 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 2: that might be bad news if your Jalen Hurts has 1435 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:30,040 Speaker 2: No team has won the NFC East and back to 1436 01:16:30,080 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 2: back years since two thousand and five, and the last 1437 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:36,519 Speaker 2: seventeen quarterbacks who made their Super Bowl debut did not 1438 01:16:36,640 --> 01:16:38,559 Speaker 2: go back to the Super Bowl to following year. Worse, 1439 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:42,160 Speaker 2: Herts is gonna kind of be at the helm of 1440 01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:45,479 Speaker 2: a very popular public team and they're breaking in a 1441 01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:51,040 Speaker 2: new defensive coordinator and a new offensive coordinator, and of course, 1442 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 2: given the Eagles success, they're going to have a bit 1443 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,519 Speaker 2: of a bulls eye on their back. Finally, I talked 1444 01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:58,720 Speaker 2: about this earlier running back Jonathan Taylor. He's beating his 1445 01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:01,519 Speaker 2: chest a little. He might want to tread a little 1446 01:17:01,600 --> 01:17:07,280 Speaker 2: lightly on a potential holdout, because not only will Jonathan 1447 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:11,639 Speaker 2: Taylor be fined forty thousand dollars a day that every 1448 01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:15,280 Speaker 2: day he is missing, he'll be fined by the Colts, 1449 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 2: but he also risks losing in a crude season for 1450 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:22,200 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. What does that mean if he doesn't 1451 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:25,439 Speaker 2: play this year, which I don't see happening. If the 1452 01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:29,280 Speaker 2: Le'Veon Bell debacle didn't convince people, nothing will. I do 1453 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:33,719 Speaker 2: think you'll see Taylor back. But if if he's not back, 1454 01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:38,000 Speaker 2: that would render him a restricted free agent next March 1455 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:43,599 Speaker 2: instead of being an unrestricted free agent. So the hit part. 1456 01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:47,120 Speaker 2: The hits just keep coming for the running backs. And again, 1457 01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:52,719 Speaker 2: running backs haven't been devalued. They're valuable. The position is 1458 01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:56,560 Speaker 2: very important. The issue here is that they are interchangeable. 1459 01:17:57,320 --> 01:18:01,240 Speaker 2: What's not lost on me is that at the starting 1460 01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:03,720 Speaker 2: running back in the Super Bowl for the Chiefs. There 1461 01:18:03,720 --> 01:18:06,080 Speaker 2: were two hundred and fifty one players drafted ahead of 1462 01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:08,880 Speaker 2: him in the twenty twenty two draft, twenty twenty one 1463 01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:13,879 Speaker 2: Draft one or two, we're talking about Isaiah pachekwater Rutgers. 1464 01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:17,240 Speaker 2: That didn't stop him from being the leading rusher in 1465 01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, in the Super Bowl champion. Think about 1466 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:25,280 Speaker 2: that for just a second. They're important, They're interchangeable. The 1467 01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:29,000 Speaker 2: game has become basketball on turf. That's the way it is. 1468 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:31,120 Speaker 2: You put your athletes in space to make a play, 1469 01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:35,720 Speaker 2: and the running back is important, just not the key 1470 01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 2: cog in the offense because they are replaceable. Coming up, 1471 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 2: you're gonna meet Fred Kerger. Think Vince Vaughan and Owen 1472 01:18:44,120 --> 01:18:50,840 Speaker 2: Wilson wedding crashers. But he's a real life dude. I'm 1473 01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:55,000 Speaker 2: gonna hear about this guy.

Well, if you saw the 1490 01:19:57,640 --> 01:20:02,520 Speaker 2: movie Wedding Crashers, Patrick. 1491 01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:04,639 Speaker 10: Gid everybody, Yes, I am Bernie. 1492 01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:07,599 Speaker 2: Did you see the movie Wedding Crashers in two thousand 1493 01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:08,000 Speaker 2: and five? 1494 01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:11,960 Speaker 10: Absolutely yeah. It's a classic hole that thought will come 1495 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 10: back to it. 1496 01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:18,839 Speaker 2: So not only is Fred Karger the ultimate wedding crasher, 1497 01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:24,720 Speaker 2: he has essentially come out and said, wedding crashers, they 1498 01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:29,120 Speaker 2: had it all wrong. Hold that thought, I'll come back 1499 01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:32,240 Speaker 2: to it. This is a guy who does this turns 1500 01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 2: out that in his life he's crashed not only weddings, 1501 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 2: but hundreds of high profile events over the years, like 1502 01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:45,760 Speaker 2: even celebrity funerals, political conventions, you know, those parties that 1503 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:49,280 Speaker 2: the Hollywood elite throw, all the stars show up, their 1504 01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:55,040 Speaker 2: star studied, you know, like Madame Tussade's, And every time 1505 01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:58,240 Speaker 2: he managed to pull it off. He's got this sense 1506 01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:02,599 Speaker 2: of confidence. He's got some good improvisational skills, and he'll 1507 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:05,880 Speaker 2: bring a prop now and then he'll do his research. Now. 1508 01:21:05,920 --> 01:21:07,839 Speaker 2: He's an older gentleman. By the way. Back in nineteen 1509 01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:11,800 Speaker 2: seventy two, he actually weaseled his way on stage during 1510 01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:15,800 Speaker 2: the Oscars ceremony, an honorary award for Charlie Chaplin. He 1511 01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:20,599 Speaker 2: shook Charlie Chaplin's hand and acted like they'd known each 1512 01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:24,960 Speaker 2: other for decades. The TV cameras broadcasted, millions of people 1513 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:30,599 Speaker 2: saw it. Nobody was the wiser. The following year, at 1514 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:35,439 Speaker 2: the Academy Awards, he even folded the security so he 1515 01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:41,440 Speaker 2: could stand behind Liza Minelli. Checked that Liza Minnelli and 1516 01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:46,799 Speaker 2: the credits, the closing credits for the Academy Awards. Liza 1517 01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:50,599 Speaker 2: Minelli had just accepted an Oscar for the Best Actress. 1518 01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:53,160 Speaker 2: He stands next to elect their buddies and it gets 1519 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:57,080 Speaker 2: on TV. Right fast forward to two thousand and six. 1520 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:00,320 Speaker 2: You know what's great about those academies. We have all 1521 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:05,320 Speaker 2: those cool, really big time after parties the Academy Awards 1522 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:08,799 Speaker 2: that you always see him right, very exclusive, big time bashes. 1523 01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:13,320 Speaker 2: He crashed in two thousand and six Vanity Fairs Academy 1524 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 2: Awards after party, and somehow he brought in a replica 1525 01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:20,240 Speaker 2: of a fake Oscar. You couldn't tell the difference apparently, 1526 01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 2: and he actually bumped into Catherine Keen and almost dropped 1527 01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:26,439 Speaker 2: it on her foot. But he's walking around with this oscar. 1528 01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:28,760 Speaker 2: No one's none the wiser and back by the way, 1529 01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:33,280 Speaker 2: in twenty eighteen, he slunt past five security checkpoints at 1530 01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:37,160 Speaker 2: Versace's Met Gayla after party, just kind of slips in, 1531 01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 2: cools a cucumber and what is he doing. He's carrying 1532 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 2: the train of Blake Lively's gown. The guy, somehow in 1533 01:22:46,360 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 2: his career has never once been ousted. And if anybody 1534 01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:52,400 Speaker 2: ever questions him, he either tryms his way into the 1535 01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:56,760 Speaker 2: good graces or he just kind of soners out, slips out, 1536 01:22:57,320 --> 01:23:02,400 Speaker 2: doesn't cause a scene. His mantra, he says, look like 1537 01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:06,840 Speaker 2: you belong. If you act confident enough to appear like 1538 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:10,200 Speaker 2: you should be there, you're supposed to be there. That's 1539 01:23:10,240 --> 01:23:13,479 Speaker 2: half the battle. And that's where he takes off on 1540 01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 2: wedding crashers. He said, man, they had it all wrong. 1541 01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:22,320 Speaker 2: He said, first of all, dress the part, act the part, 1542 01:23:22,400 --> 01:23:24,040 Speaker 2: be the part. The key thing is to look like 1543 01:23:24,080 --> 01:23:26,320 Speaker 2: you belong. The older you are, the easier it is 1544 01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 2: because people are much less suspicious of somebody who's well 1545 01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:34,320 Speaker 2: dressed in their fifties, maybe a little graying hair, than 1546 01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:36,960 Speaker 2: the iron of some a couple of over zealous twenty 1547 01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:40,400 Speaker 2: two year olds with you know, maybe they've had a 1548 01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:42,800 Speaker 2: few cream dements and it is starting to show and 1549 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 2: they stick out like a sore thumb. Carger also said, 1550 01:23:46,840 --> 01:23:51,559 Speaker 2: whenever possible, follow the crowd. He says, part of acting 1551 01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:54,960 Speaker 2: confident and following the crowd is that leads you into 1552 01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 2: the right party. And that's more or less how he 1553 01:23:56,960 --> 01:23:59,479 Speaker 2: got into that met gaily. He says, if someone stops you, 1554 01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:01,240 Speaker 2: you can always say you just stepped out for a 1555 01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:03,679 Speaker 2: cigarette or a phone call and you're redering the party. 1556 01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:06,160 Speaker 2: And if someone calls you out as you walk by, 1557 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:10,120 Speaker 2: don't turn around, wait two, three, four times, just say 1558 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:12,720 Speaker 2: excuse me, keep going. Respond the first time and you 1559 01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:16,160 Speaker 2: look guilty. He said. If someone stop tries to stop you, 1560 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:18,799 Speaker 2: just keep walking. Make them do it two or three times, 1561 01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:22,839 Speaker 2: and then they're less likely to believe that you've crashed 1562 01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:26,520 Speaker 2: the place. The other thing, he says, prepare a backstory, 1563 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:31,280 Speaker 2: one that really suits you. Okay, now here's where he 1564 01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:33,360 Speaker 2: really kind of ripped twddy crash. She goes, that was 1565 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 2: amateur ouer. Okay, that was their strategy. Member of the 1566 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:42,560 Speaker 2: characters John Beckwith and Jeremy Gray. Now, instead of referencing 1567 01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:45,639 Speaker 2: a particular family member like Uncle Ned's kids, remember who 1568 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:48,599 Speaker 2: are the Uncle Ned's kids, you should vaguely say you're 1569 01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,240 Speaker 2: on the groom side. If someone on the bride side 1570 01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:55,519 Speaker 2: says asks you who you are, and vice versa, if 1571 01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 2: you are on the bride side, say you're on the 1572 01:24:58,120 --> 01:25:02,600 Speaker 2: groom side. Big weddings, one's worth crashing. It's highly unlikely 1573 01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 2: everybody knows everybody. It's highly unlikely that anybody knows everybody. 1574 01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:12,920 Speaker 2: He says. That's the problem, and that's what Vince Foughtoan 1575 01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:17,880 Speaker 2: Wilson did. They created this identity, right, maybe a bicycle clown. 1576 01:25:18,160 --> 01:25:20,720 Speaker 2: They were the best dancers, the biggest jokers. You're the 1577 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:22,400 Speaker 2: big hit of the wedding. No, you don't do that. 1578 01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:25,880 Speaker 2: You blend in with the wallpaper. If you're trying to 1579 01:25:25,920 --> 01:25:28,880 Speaker 2: create an identity to fit and stand out, you better 1580 01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 2: come up with something that suits you. But you better 1581 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:34,360 Speaker 2: be careful because you're gonna get pinned down. He says. Actually, 1582 01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 2: when he was at the met gala, he told people 1583 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:38,920 Speaker 2: they worked for Apple, that was one of the event's sponsors. 1584 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:42,040 Speaker 2: And when he snuck into Vanity Fairs Oscars after night 1585 01:25:42,080 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 2: party in two thousand and six, he told the event 1586 01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:47,640 Speaker 2: staff he was with Richard Taylor, a man who he 1587 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:49,640 Speaker 2: actually kind of looked a little bit like, who was 1588 01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:53,280 Speaker 2: one of the four winners for Best Visual Effects, got 1589 01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:56,040 Speaker 2: a fake oscar in his hand. The perfect backstory for 1590 01:25:56,120 --> 01:25:59,559 Speaker 2: Carter the event. He had name recognition, he was not 1591 01:25:59,640 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 2: readily familiar, and he blended in. And that's the key, 1592 01:26:03,439 --> 01:26:07,519 Speaker 2: blend in, don't stand out. One of the things Carter 1593 01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:10,320 Speaker 2: said is that is one thing, that's one detail he 1594 01:26:10,360 --> 01:26:13,720 Speaker 2: really believes wedding crashers got wrong. Yeah, you make those 1595 01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:17,400 Speaker 2: giant balloon animals you dance with the flower girl, the 1596 01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:20,080 Speaker 2: little flower girl. You make a name for yourself at 1597 01:26:20,080 --> 01:26:24,040 Speaker 2: the wedding. Then may be conducive to you know, trying 1598 01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:28,960 Speaker 2: to score with the ladies, but you stand out during 1599 01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:34,439 Speaker 2: the crash. That's anesthetical to the entire strategy. The idea 1600 01:26:34,479 --> 01:26:36,840 Speaker 2: is to blend in. Cargo says, when you're in there, 1601 01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:42,480 Speaker 2: don't get drunk, don't start acting obnoxious, don't dance obnoxially obnoxiously, 1602 01:26:43,360 --> 01:26:46,479 Speaker 2: just fit in and be like every other guest. Finally, 1603 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:50,639 Speaker 2: one of the key pieces of advice Fred Carger has 1604 01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:53,760 Speaker 2: is be very mindful of the security and staff, because 1605 01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:57,599 Speaker 2: if you're caught or your question, don't become indignant, be courteous, 1606 01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:01,599 Speaker 2: be respectful. Understand it's those people's jobs to question you. 1607 01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:06,240 Speaker 2: And Carter has failed numerous times and numerous events, only 1608 01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:10,200 Speaker 2: to eventually gain entry in part because he never makes 1609 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 2: a big stink about getting caught. That way, he gives 1610 01:27:13,240 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 2: himself another chance to live another day. So, Patrick, have 1611 01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:20,479 Speaker 2: you ever crashed a wedding or anything like that? 1612 01:27:21,280 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 10: No, I don't think I've ever crashed a wedding, Bernie, 1613 01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:25,759 Speaker 10: but I've been a plenty of weddings. 1614 01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:28,920 Speaker 2: If he crashed anything. I crashed at high school reunion. 1615 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:30,599 Speaker 10: Once were he crashed the school. 1616 01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:32,680 Speaker 2: I really did. I really did once yeah, years ago. 1617 01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:35,200 Speaker 10: I mean I may have crashed my one of my 1618 01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:38,000 Speaker 10: my sister's birthday one time where it was her and 1619 01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:39,640 Speaker 10: her friends and I just happened to be there with 1620 01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,439 Speaker 10: a couple of my buddies and was like, let's just 1621 01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:43,880 Speaker 10: go over and just like mess with her. So yeah, 1622 01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:47,040 Speaker 10: but we end up we ended up like making amends 1623 01:27:47,080 --> 01:27:49,080 Speaker 10: and buying, you know, buying the girls around a drink. 1624 01:27:49,160 --> 01:27:51,840 Speaker 2: So it was fine. It's all good. So what do 1625 01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:54,439 Speaker 2: you think of Fred Carter's ideas here? Do you think 1626 01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:55,439 Speaker 2: they make a lot of sense? 1627 01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:58,080 Speaker 10: Honestly, Bernie, I I do kind of think they make 1628 01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:00,519 Speaker 10: a little bit more sense. Like I'm with it. I 1629 01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:02,479 Speaker 10: think it's uh, you know, it makes you think a 1630 01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:04,160 Speaker 10: little bit, but I think I do agree with it. 1631 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:07,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, he's really done it. He's really done it. 1632 01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:09,599 Speaker 2: I Mean this is not some you know, a fla 1633 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:14,719 Speaker 2: by night boso. He's actually crashed weddings and gala events 1634 01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:20,560 Speaker 2: and parties and and and certainly you know the Academy 1635 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:23,439 Speaker 2: Awards after parties that kind of stuff. So you really 1636 01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:26,719 Speaker 2: kind of got to give the guys his due because 1637 01:28:26,880 --> 01:28:30,800 Speaker 2: he's he's actually done it. Yep, he's actually done it. 1638 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:34,679 Speaker 2: Coming up, we just had the Major League Baseball trade deadline. 1639 01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:38,799 Speaker 2: Will not really know how they pan out for a while, 1640 01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:42,559 Speaker 2: but it kind of kind of reminds us of what 1641 01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:46,560 Speaker 2: have been some of the five biggest trade deadline blockbusters 1642 01:28:46,600 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 2: over the last few years. We'll take a quick walk 1643 01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 2: down memory lane.

CC Sabbathia once went to the brewers. 1659 01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:44,080 Speaker 2: How about hooray Fermanny, would let's start there when we 1660 01:29:44,120 --> 01:29:47,040 Speaker 2: come back, I'm Bernie fraddlew comany Alive from the Las 1661 01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:49,800 Speaker 2: Vegas Fox Sports Radio tirach dot com studios.

Coming up top of the hour, What 1666 01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 2: kind of brand new fool of you? Followed by what 1667 01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:10,599 Speaker 2: my name? Coming up? After Steve's update, we dive into 1668 01:30:10,640 --> 01:30:15,320 Speaker 2: our AFC North preview as we continue our look around 1669 01:30:15,360 --> 01:30:19,519 Speaker 2: the NFL. So the trade deadline is coming gone. Major 1670 01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:21,880 Speaker 2: League Baseball used to be July thirty first, Now it's 1671 01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:24,880 Speaker 2: August first. That was Tuesday. Will any of these trades 1672 01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:26,880 Speaker 2: be talked about in future years? Will any of these 1673 01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:31,559 Speaker 2: trades bear fruit, meaning put their team over the top 1674 01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:36,920 Speaker 2: to get to the promised land? Perhaps perhaps Texas with 1675 01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:42,200 Speaker 2: Max Schurzer gets that done. We'll see our Houston with 1676 01:30:42,439 --> 01:30:48,080 Speaker 2: Justin Verlander. But remember Manny would that was a fourteen trade. 1677 01:30:48,160 --> 01:30:50,800 Speaker 2: July thirty one, two thousand and eight. I know, LA fans, 1678 01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:55,959 Speaker 2: you folks listening out there. On five seventy am, Dodgers 1679 01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 2: get Manny Ramirez. They trade Angela Roach and Brian Morris 1680 01:31:01,280 --> 01:31:03,439 Speaker 2: to the other You know, a couple other players went 1681 01:31:03,479 --> 01:31:05,760 Speaker 2: to the Pirates, Jason Bata, the Red Sox. All of 1682 01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:09,760 Speaker 2: a sudden boom the summer two thousand and eight, Mannywood 1683 01:31:09,840 --> 01:31:12,640 Speaker 2: was created. Now I get it. The Red Sox they 1684 01:31:12,640 --> 01:31:14,639 Speaker 2: were kind of fed up with Manny's act. He told 1685 01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 2: reporters leading up to the trade, the Red Sox don't 1686 01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:19,720 Speaker 2: deserve a player like me. But then you get this 1687 01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:23,200 Speaker 2: three way swap, and the price paid by the Dodgers, 1688 01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:28,639 Speaker 2: frankly was a bargain when you consider the impact. Ramirez 1689 01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 2: had to be middle of the order that year, okay, 1690 01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:34,360 Speaker 2: and and you weren't really sure what you you could 1691 01:31:34,400 --> 01:31:36,960 Speaker 2: be one hundred percent of what you were getting. Allegedly, 1692 01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:39,679 Speaker 2: Many faked a knee injury and basically quit on the team. 1693 01:31:40,280 --> 01:31:42,439 Speaker 2: But he changed the scope of the season in LA. 1694 01:31:42,520 --> 01:31:45,599 Speaker 2: Even though it was for fifty three games, Manny turned 1695 01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:49,720 Speaker 2: Hollywood into Mannywood. You remember it. He hit a ridiculous 1696 01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:54,240 Speaker 2: three ninety six seventeen home runs in fifty three games, 1697 01:31:54,560 --> 01:31:58,800 Speaker 2: and the Dodgers won the NL West in the playoffs, 1698 01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:02,760 Speaker 2: Ramirez at five I have twenty, helped the Dodgers to 1699 01:32:02,880 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 2: their first postseason series win in twenty years. Ultimately, the 1700 01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:12,320 Speaker 2: Dodgers lost to the eventual World Series champion Phillies that 1701 01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:16,759 Speaker 2: season in the National League Champions Series, but despite playing 1702 01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:20,120 Speaker 2: just two months in the National League, Manny Ramirez finished 1703 01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:24,320 Speaker 2: fourth in the NLV and the NL MVP Award voting, 1704 01:32:25,360 --> 01:32:27,920 Speaker 2: and that became I consider to be one of the 1705 01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:33,360 Speaker 2: best blockbuster acquisitions at any trade deadline, regardless of the 1706 01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 2: events that preceded and followed the deal. I remember the 1707 01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:38,799 Speaker 2: left field bleeder. Of course, I was living in Michigan's 1708 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:43,080 Speaker 2: with CBS Radio then. Manny Wood was big, big time. 1709 01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:46,600 Speaker 2: Left field bleachers were packed and he delivered. Look at 1710 01:32:46,640 --> 01:32:49,479 Speaker 2: those numbers. Can you imagine seventeen home runs and fifty 1711 01:32:49,479 --> 01:32:52,480 Speaker 2: three games, batting three ninety six, batted five hundred the playoffs. 1712 01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:55,720 Speaker 2: Remember the joke, this was just a few years ago. 1713 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:59,960 Speaker 2: A cesspitue for the rest of us. Remember the Mets 1714 01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:05,040 Speaker 2: got Jonis Cespedis, and he traded Michael Fulmore, who became 1715 01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:08,599 Speaker 2: a very good pitcher with Detroit great stuff, and another player, 1716 01:33:08,680 --> 01:33:13,120 Speaker 2: Louis Sasa, to the Tigers. Plenty of drama preceded the deal. 1717 01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:18,360 Speaker 2: The Mets, yeah, because two days earlier the whole Carlos 1718 01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:22,880 Speaker 2: Gomez trade episode. Remember the camera showed Wilmer Flores tearing 1719 01:33:22,960 --> 01:33:24,080 Speaker 2: up on the field he thought he was going to 1720 01:33:24,160 --> 01:33:29,519 Speaker 2: be traded. Sandy Alderson was bemoaning social media and said, 1721 01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:32,760 Speaker 2: you know, you're beating the trade process. It was a 1722 01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:35,360 Speaker 2: little weird, but for the Mets, it couldn't work that 1723 01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:38,960 Speaker 2: much better. They got the rentaland Cesspeedis, who was having 1724 01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:42,280 Speaker 2: a a good season in Detroit, and it was It 1725 01:33:42,280 --> 01:33:44,720 Speaker 2: looked a little risky given the fact that Cespetis could 1726 01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:47,559 Speaker 2: be a little streaky, but guess what, the Mets caught 1727 01:33:47,600 --> 01:33:51,960 Speaker 2: him just the right moment. For six weeks, Jannis Cespedis 1728 01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:56,320 Speaker 2: destroyed National League pitching seventeen home runs, ten double, three triples. 1729 01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:59,280 Speaker 2: He cooled off the last couple weeks of September, but 1730 01:33:59,320 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 2: nonetheless got some down ballot MVP love and was a 1731 01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:06,600 Speaker 2: central figure as the Mets made a run to the 1732 01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:10,200 Speaker 2: World Series and they even kept him around afterwards. Meanwhile, 1733 01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:14,640 Speaker 2: Michael Fulmer, who was hardly the most talted pitcher in 1734 01:34:14,680 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 2: the Mets system, proved to be an excellent return piece 1735 01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:20,800 Speaker 2: for the Tigers. He won the twenty sixteen AL Rookie 1736 01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:23,240 Speaker 2: of the Year and even made the All Star team 1737 01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:28,439 Speaker 2: in twenty seventeen, but then injuries have kind of derailed 1738 01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:32,760 Speaker 2: him since then. Now a year ago now, there was 1739 01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:36,439 Speaker 2: a pretty big trade, and we're starting to see that 1740 01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:40,000 Speaker 2: not all of these work. You may have already forgotten 1741 01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,559 Speaker 2: talking about Juan Soto to San Diego. The date was 1742 01:34:43,640 --> 01:34:47,559 Speaker 2: August second, twenty twenty two. It's been a year. The 1743 01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:52,200 Speaker 2: Pottery's got Juan Soto and Josh Bell and they would 1744 01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:56,280 Speaker 2: see what two, three, five, six, seven players including minor 1745 01:34:56,320 --> 01:35:00,360 Speaker 2: leaguers to the Nationals. I don't know that you can 1746 01:35:00,439 --> 01:35:02,439 Speaker 2: rank this very high. And because we've got to see 1747 01:35:02,439 --> 01:35:04,719 Speaker 2: how it plays out on the field, maybe the potterys rally. 1748 01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:07,080 Speaker 2: Maybe they get to the playoffs this year and make 1749 01:35:07,160 --> 01:35:10,080 Speaker 2: some noise. They made some noise last year. They really 1750 01:35:10,080 --> 01:35:12,240 Speaker 2: had never been a player like Sodo Delta the trade 1751 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:15,920 Speaker 2: deadline before. If you think about it, young guy twenty 1752 01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:19,160 Speaker 2: three years old already a two time All Star, already 1753 01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:21,880 Speaker 2: a World Series winner, coming up a runner up finish 1754 01:35:21,960 --> 01:35:25,160 Speaker 2: in the previous season's MVP, and they trade him. Remember 1755 01:35:25,240 --> 01:35:27,960 Speaker 2: he turned down four hundred million dollars. Maybe that had 1756 01:35:28,040 --> 01:35:31,280 Speaker 2: something to do with it, But the Padres moved two 1757 01:35:31,280 --> 01:35:34,880 Speaker 2: of their most promising young major league players and two 1758 01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:37,840 Speaker 2: of the best three prospects who were all ranked in 1759 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:40,880 Speaker 2: the top one hundred, just to get Soto and Bell. 1760 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:44,080 Speaker 2: That's a massive amount of talent that actually went in 1761 01:35:44,120 --> 01:35:47,200 Speaker 2: both directions, But the clear headliner was Sodo. This is 1762 01:35:47,240 --> 01:35:51,720 Speaker 2: a guy, at least up till the trade. Last year, 1763 01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:55,120 Speaker 2: he's haund a decent year, this year not great. He 1764 01:35:55,200 --> 01:35:59,479 Speaker 2: was a generational slugger and he had turned down the 1765 01:35:59,600 --> 01:36:01,920 Speaker 2: national Well this to this day it blows me away 1766 01:36:01,920 --> 01:36:04,680 Speaker 2: because they'll never get offered this again. There's no way 1767 01:36:05,960 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 2: Soto turned down fifteen years, four hundred and forty million. 1768 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:11,679 Speaker 2: That would have been the largest total guarantee ever given 1769 01:36:11,720 --> 01:36:14,080 Speaker 2: to any player. And when he turned it down, they 1770 01:36:14,120 --> 01:36:16,839 Speaker 2: traded him. The Padres have never won the World Series. 1771 01:36:17,479 --> 01:36:19,880 Speaker 2: They went in ninety eight, they went in eighty four. 1772 01:36:20,880 --> 01:36:24,080 Speaker 2: This was the latest and greatest, I think in all 1773 01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:30,040 Speaker 2: aggressive moves. Now Granted, Soto did help the Patres reached 1774 01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:33,120 Speaker 2: the National League Championship Series last year, but if I'm 1775 01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:34,880 Speaker 2: being honest, I think the jury is still out in 1776 01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:37,280 Speaker 2: the deal. But we're talking about it still Juan Soto. 1777 01:36:37,720 --> 01:36:43,800 Speaker 2: No one talks about Cesspadis. Everybody remembers many would right well, 1778 01:36:43,920 --> 01:36:46,080 Speaker 2: the current trades be talked about in future years. A 1779 01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:49,760 Speaker 2: couple other trades worth mentioning just two years ago. Max 1780 01:36:49,800 --> 01:36:53,240 Speaker 2: Scherzer and Trey Turner were traded to the Dodgers in 1781 01:36:53,280 --> 01:36:57,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, and the Dodgers were having a hell 1782 01:36:57,320 --> 01:37:00,599 Speaker 2: of a divisional fight with the Giants, but they said 1783 01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:04,120 Speaker 2: we're going all in. They gave up several prospects, and 1784 01:37:04,120 --> 01:37:06,400 Speaker 2: again this is two years later. Have you heard about 1785 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:09,719 Speaker 2: kibert Ruiz or Josiah Gray or Donovan Casey or Geraldo Carrio. 1786 01:37:10,120 --> 01:37:12,600 Speaker 2: They got Sureser, they ran them for a year and 1787 01:37:12,640 --> 01:37:15,679 Speaker 2: a month or two, and Trey Turner, who initially played 1788 01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:18,679 Speaker 2: second base, ended up shifted to shortstop when Corey Seeger 1789 01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:22,639 Speaker 2: left in free agency. But Scherzer and Turner were both 1790 01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:26,080 Speaker 2: fantastic for the Dodgers down the stretch. Dodgers did manage 1791 01:37:26,080 --> 01:37:30,679 Speaker 2: to overcome the Giants in the Divisional Series. However, LA 1792 01:37:31,479 --> 01:37:34,240 Speaker 2: fell short of their chance to get to the World 1793 01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:37,880 Speaker 2: Series in twenty twenty one. Why tough to grade these 1794 01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:42,000 Speaker 2: trades You don't really understand the significance until years later. 1795 01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 2: This is one that's very significant. The Yankees traded Aaralo 1796 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:51,120 Speaker 2: Chapman to the Cubs in twenty sixteen, and basically theo 1797 01:37:51,160 --> 01:37:54,719 Speaker 2: Epstein knew the Cubs were on their way to making history. 1798 01:37:55,439 --> 01:37:59,240 Speaker 2: Hadn't closed the deal yet. Obviously, theo Epstein finally said 1799 01:37:59,600 --> 01:38:02,760 Speaker 2: if not now when he knew they would only be 1800 01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:06,800 Speaker 2: renting a roleless Chapman, and he saw Chapman as the 1801 01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:10,160 Speaker 2: finishing piece, and he ended up being right. Even though 1802 01:38:10,240 --> 01:38:14,120 Speaker 2: Chapman couldn't fin finish off Game seven, he made a 1803 01:38:14,120 --> 01:38:17,160 Speaker 2: big splash down the stretch, and of course, the Cubs 1804 01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:21,160 Speaker 2: won it in twenty sixteen. Interestingly enough, as you recall 1805 01:38:21,880 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 2: or all this, Chapman was acquired back by the Yankees, 1806 01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 2: who had traded him the following season, and by the 1807 01:38:27,160 --> 01:38:30,160 Speaker 2: way Andrew Miller the Yankees traded to Cleveland in twenty sixteen. 1808 01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:33,400 Speaker 2: This one's pointed as a game changer, not just for Cleveland. 1809 01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:35,160 Speaker 2: They made it to Game seven of the World Series 1810 01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:37,880 Speaker 2: that year, right, But it was kind of good for 1811 01:38:37,920 --> 01:38:42,760 Speaker 2: Major League Baseball because what did Terry Francona do. He 1812 01:38:42,880 --> 01:38:46,920 Speaker 2: tried something completely out of school. He started using Andrew 1813 01:38:46,920 --> 01:38:48,920 Speaker 2: Miller as early as the fifth inning in the postseas. 1814 01:38:48,960 --> 01:38:51,240 Speaker 2: He was the best reliever in baseball then, and that 1815 01:38:51,320 --> 01:38:54,679 Speaker 2: actually helped the team overcome many of their late season 1816 01:38:54,800 --> 01:38:56,960 Speaker 2: injuries to a lot of their starting pitchers like Danny 1817 01:38:56,960 --> 01:39:00,679 Speaker 2: Salazar and Carlos Carrasco. That kind of revolution nights baseball. 1818 01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:05,080 Speaker 2: Of course, the all timer Fred McGriff of tom Omanski fame, 1819 01:39:05,640 --> 01:39:08,080 Speaker 2: traded to the Braves at the deadline in nineteen ninety three. 1820 01:39:08,120 --> 01:39:11,439 Speaker 2: The Braves were eight games back of the Giants. Remember 1821 01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:15,320 Speaker 2: the Okay, you may or may not remember, there was 1822 01:39:15,360 --> 01:39:18,400 Speaker 2: a time the Braves and the Giants were both in 1823 01:39:18,439 --> 01:39:21,760 Speaker 2: the National League West. Giants had led from stem to 1824 01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:25,040 Speaker 2: stern their first year with Barry Bonds having a magical year. 1825 01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:29,960 Speaker 2: The Braves get Fred McGriff. McGriff went crazy the final 1826 01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:35,040 Speaker 2: sixty eight games down the stretch, and the Braves caught 1827 01:39:36,120 --> 01:39:39,080 Speaker 2: the Giants and won the division. This is before the 1828 01:39:39,160 --> 01:39:42,639 Speaker 2: wild Card, So will they be talking about these trades 1829 01:39:42,880 --> 01:39:46,040 Speaker 2: coming up in future years. I don't know. I guess 1830 01:39:46,080 --> 01:39:48,439 Speaker 2: we'll find out. In the meantime, we'll just have to 1831 01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:53,639 Speaker 2: wait and see where we continue with the year. Our 1832 01:39:53,720 --> 01:39:57,840 Speaker 2: divisional previews, we've done so far the AFC West, in 1833 01:39:57,880 --> 01:40:01,200 Speaker 2: the NFC West, we've all so done. The NFC North. 1834 01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:04,880 Speaker 2: Tonight we do the AFC North. Coming up first, let's 1835 01:40:04,880 --> 01:40:06,840 Speaker 2: go back to Steve de Seger's latest. 1836 01:40:11,520 --> 01:40:14,600 Speaker 8: Major League Baseball's late game Saturday night went to Seattle, 1837 01:40:14,640 --> 01:40:16,720 Speaker 8: holding on to beat the Angels three to two. The 1838 01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:20,160 Speaker 8: Halos are fifty six and fifty six, losers of five straight. 1839 01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:23,679 Speaker 8: They trail for the final ale wildcard spot by six games. 1840 01:40:23,920 --> 01:40:26,479 Speaker 8: The Mariners are two and a half back. San Diego 1841 01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:28,600 Speaker 8: scored seven runs at the bottom of the eighth to 1842 01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:31,400 Speaker 8: defeat the rival Dodgers eight three. That ends the Dodgers 1843 01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:34,559 Speaker 8: four game winning streak. Arizona has lost five in a row. 1844 01:40:34,600 --> 01:40:38,080 Speaker 8: At Minnesota, the Twins blitzed Arizona twelve to one, winning 1845 01:40:38,120 --> 01:40:41,160 Speaker 8: pitcher former Dodger Kent and Maeta. The White Sox were 1846 01:40:41,200 --> 01:40:43,400 Speaker 8: seven to four winners at Cleveland. There was a fight 1847 01:40:43,479 --> 01:40:46,519 Speaker 8: in the sixth inning. Jose Ramirez knocked down White Sox 1848 01:40:46,560 --> 01:40:48,639 Speaker 8: short stop Tim Anderson with a punch. 1849 01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:49,759 Speaker 3: Both were kicked. 1850 01:40:49,560 --> 01:40:52,080 Speaker 8: Out in a day game at Yankee Stadium, New York, 1851 01:40:52,160 --> 01:40:55,120 Speaker 8: three to one over Houston, beating Justin Verlander, the former 1852 01:40:55,160 --> 01:40:57,759 Speaker 8: med who did go seven innings, but the Houston offense 1853 01:40:57,880 --> 01:41:01,599 Speaker 8: was two for twenty seven with sixteen strikeouts. Texas won 1854 01:41:01,640 --> 01:41:04,080 Speaker 8: its fifth game in a row, nine to eight over Miami. 1855 01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:06,439 Speaker 8: The Rangers are first in the AL West, two and 1856 01:41:06,439 --> 01:41:09,560 Speaker 8: a half games over Houston. Baltimore sent the Mets to 1857 01:41:09,600 --> 01:41:12,160 Speaker 8: a fifth straight loss, seven to three, while Detroit at 1858 01:41:12,160 --> 01:41:14,360 Speaker 8: home was a winner over Tampa Bay four to two. 1859 01:41:14,800 --> 01:41:18,439 Speaker 8: The Cubs won again eight six against Atlanta. Washington won 1860 01:41:18,479 --> 01:41:21,360 Speaker 8: at Cincinnati seven to three. The Reds have lost five straight. 1861 01:41:21,640 --> 01:41:24,120 Speaker 8: Milwaukee's first in the NL Central now a game and 1862 01:41:24,120 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 8: a half over the Reds Milwaukee and ten innings, was 1863 01:41:27,120 --> 01:41:31,360 Speaker 8: a comeback winner against Pittsburgh three to two victories for Philadelphia, 1864 01:41:31,400 --> 01:41:34,599 Speaker 8: Oakland and Saint Louis. Guard Ricky Rubio will not play 1865 01:41:34,640 --> 01:41:37,439 Speaker 8: for Spain at the upcoming Basketball World Cup, pausing his 1866 01:41:37,520 --> 01:41:40,959 Speaker 8: career citing mental health, and Saints running back Eno Benjamin 1867 01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:43,160 Speaker 8: is likely out for the year with a ruptured achilles 1868 01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:45,040 Speaker 8: I'm Steve Desager, all. 1869 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:50,880 Speaker 2: Right, thanks Steve. THEFC North to me, is one of 1870 01:41:50,920 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 2: the most unique, competitive, difficult, interesting divisions in all of 1871 01:41:56,479 --> 01:42:00,160 Speaker 2: football for the simple reason every one of these teams 1872 01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:03,280 Speaker 2: a legitimate chance at a postseason berth. Now, I don't 1873 01:42:03,280 --> 01:42:05,479 Speaker 2: know that every one of these teams has the same 1874 01:42:05,560 --> 01:42:08,439 Speaker 2: chance to win the division, but they have a legitimate 1875 01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:12,759 Speaker 2: chance at a postseason birth This is a difficult division 1876 01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:16,400 Speaker 2: to win, but clearly I believe as they should be. 1877 01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,439 Speaker 2: The Cincinnati Bengals are the favorite based on the APPS 1878 01:42:20,479 --> 01:42:24,559 Speaker 2: plus one point fifteen? Do you want to win? If 1879 01:42:24,560 --> 01:42:28,200 Speaker 2: you bet one hundred dollars to win on the Bengals 1880 01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:30,479 Speaker 2: to win the AFC North, you'd bring back one hundred 1881 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:32,720 Speaker 2: and fifteen if they win it. So the Bengals. They 1882 01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 2: went twelve and four last year. They win their last 1883 01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:38,200 Speaker 2: eight regular season games. In twenty twenty two, they got 1884 01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:42,719 Speaker 2: to their second straight AFC Championship Game appearance, unfortunately falling 1885 01:42:42,760 --> 01:42:45,840 Speaker 2: to the Kansas City Chiefs. But this Bengals team was 1886 01:42:46,160 --> 01:42:48,479 Speaker 2: for real. They averaged twenty nine points per game during 1887 01:42:48,479 --> 01:42:52,320 Speaker 2: the eight game stretch, and they got everybody back Joe Mixon, Jamar, 1888 01:42:52,400 --> 01:42:56,160 Speaker 2: Chase t Higgins, Tyler Boyd. Even with all the salary 1889 01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:59,240 Speaker 2: cap concerns. They kept them all. They did lose their 1890 01:42:59,280 --> 01:43:02,320 Speaker 2: tight end Hayden her but they pick up the ex 1891 01:43:02,439 --> 01:43:06,559 Speaker 2: Minnesota Viking Titan, Arth Smith Junior. So the Bengals they 1892 01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:09,320 Speaker 2: are going to be a perennial contender. Obviously thanks to 1893 01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:12,280 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow. He's his second favorite to win the MVP. 1894 01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:17,160 Speaker 2: Most sportsbooks NFL Future Zods, only Patrick Mahomes of the 1895 01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:21,000 Speaker 2: defending champion Chiefs is ahead of him. Burrow forty five 1896 01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:25,679 Speaker 2: hundred yards last year, forty touchdowns, twelve interceptions. But let's 1897 01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:30,200 Speaker 2: also not forget about the Bengals defense. They are the 1898 01:43:30,360 --> 01:43:34,360 Speaker 2: unsung hero of the Cincinnati Bengals. They gave up the 1899 01:43:34,360 --> 01:43:38,080 Speaker 2: fifth fewest points and their defensive coordinator a guy you're 1900 01:43:38,120 --> 01:43:40,040 Speaker 2: hearing more about you heard him in about the Super Bowl, 1901 01:43:40,040 --> 01:43:44,679 Speaker 2: lou Anarumo. They held the Baltimore Ravens Buffalo Bills Chiefs 1902 01:43:44,800 --> 01:43:46,680 Speaker 2: on an average of sixteen points and no more than 1903 01:43:46,680 --> 01:43:49,800 Speaker 2: twenty three in the playoffs. Now, they did lose both 1904 01:43:49,840 --> 01:43:53,120 Speaker 2: of their starting safeties, Von Bell and Jesse Bates the third. 1905 01:43:53,200 --> 01:43:57,120 Speaker 2: I love Jesse Bates. He was a ballhawk. Some amazing interceptions, 1906 01:43:57,520 --> 01:44:00,080 Speaker 2: but they did bost of their pass Rush, and they 1907 01:44:00,080 --> 01:44:04,080 Speaker 2: did add a first round pick and Miles Murphy the Bengals. 1908 01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:07,519 Speaker 2: And I'm guessing and I should have asked Jason about 1909 01:44:07,560 --> 01:44:11,960 Speaker 2: this hershort. I believe that Joe Burrow is on track 1910 01:44:12,040 --> 01:44:15,360 Speaker 2: to start Week one. We'll see, but we'll see. The 1911 01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:18,519 Speaker 2: Baltimore Ravens plus two fifty. They're behind the Bengals. They're 1912 01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:21,240 Speaker 2: the second favorite to win the AFC North. You bet 1913 01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:23,280 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars it brings back two fifty if they 1914 01:44:23,320 --> 01:44:26,000 Speaker 2: do it. They were kind of teetering as a franchise, 1915 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:29,360 Speaker 2: but they managed to sign Lamar Jackson to that two 1916 01:44:29,439 --> 01:44:32,960 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty million dollar contract. Jackson's not going to 1917 01:44:33,040 --> 01:44:36,719 Speaker 2: have the chance to team up with some new big 1918 01:44:36,760 --> 01:44:39,320 Speaker 2: time weapons. Odell Beckham Junior or I still think has 1919 01:44:39,400 --> 01:44:42,560 Speaker 2: gas in the tank and their first round pick, Zay Flowers. 1920 01:44:43,040 --> 01:44:46,160 Speaker 2: They have more potent weapons in terms of wide receivers 1921 01:44:46,360 --> 01:44:48,960 Speaker 2: the Lamar Jackson has ever had in his tenure with 1922 01:44:48,960 --> 01:44:51,680 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Now. The Ravens managed to go ten and 1923 01:44:51,760 --> 01:44:55,639 Speaker 2: seven last year, even though Lamar Jackson missed the final 1924 01:44:55,680 --> 01:44:58,559 Speaker 2: five games of the season and they lost their divisional 1925 01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:01,720 Speaker 2: matchup to the Bengals. Jackson did also not play in 1926 01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:05,960 Speaker 2: that game, but in the mid season last year, again 1927 01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 2: talk about defense, Baltimore completely transformed their defense. They trade 1928 01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:12,160 Speaker 2: for ro Kwan Smith. They ranked second in points third 1929 01:45:12,280 --> 01:45:16,000 Speaker 2: yards allowed with Smith on the team. Now, John Harbaugh 1930 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:20,280 Speaker 2: somehow knows how to stockpile regular season wins better than 1931 01:45:20,320 --> 01:45:23,599 Speaker 2: any coach in the league. His team. I think this 1932 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:26,800 Speaker 2: might be his best team since the twenty thirteen Super 1933 01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:29,439 Speaker 2: Bowl champs. But it's all going to come down to 1934 01:45:29,520 --> 01:45:33,000 Speaker 2: divisional games, all right. Last year the Ravens were three 1935 01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:36,200 Speaker 2: and three against their division. They started out three to zero, 1936 01:45:36,200 --> 01:45:40,120 Speaker 2: but then lost their next three games. The wildcard team 1937 01:45:40,160 --> 01:45:42,679 Speaker 2: for me in this division is the Cleveland Browns plus 1938 01:45:42,720 --> 01:45:45,160 Speaker 2: three to fifty, meaning if you've bet one hundred dollars 1939 01:45:45,160 --> 01:45:47,560 Speaker 2: in the Cleveland Browns win the division, he win the 1940 01:45:47,640 --> 01:45:50,439 Speaker 2: NFC North, you'll win three hundred and fifty dollars. But 1941 01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:54,000 Speaker 2: the future hinges heavily on de Shaun Watson. Watson has 1942 01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:57,360 Speaker 2: to rebound and transform back into the player he was 1943 01:45:57,479 --> 01:46:01,000 Speaker 2: before two years of Michigan oswin long. You know what happened. 1944 01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:03,759 Speaker 2: We don't need to go into it. Watson played only 1945 01:46:03,840 --> 01:46:06,759 Speaker 2: six games in twenty twenty two through for just eleven 1946 01:46:06,840 --> 01:46:11,640 Speaker 2: hundred yards, seven touchdowns, five interceptions, only completed fifty eight 1947 01:46:11,640 --> 01:46:15,599 Speaker 2: percent of his passes. Those are all bad numbers now, 1948 01:46:17,320 --> 01:46:19,400 Speaker 2: and by the way, they all represent career worse for 1949 01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:25,800 Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson. Here's what's interesting. Despite very horrendous quarterback play 1950 01:46:25,880 --> 01:46:28,000 Speaker 2: last year, Cleveland still managed to finish year at seven 1951 01:46:28,040 --> 01:46:33,600 Speaker 2: to ten. Now because they had issues at quarterback, Opposing 1952 01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:38,439 Speaker 2: defenses were able to key on Nick Chubb and even 1953 01:46:38,479 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 2: Miles Garrett, who had sixteen sacks to lead a pretty 1954 01:46:42,120 --> 01:46:45,519 Speaker 2: good defense that couldn't get the Browns over the hump. Now, 1955 01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:49,439 Speaker 2: the Browns half potential if Watson can return to being 1956 01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:52,360 Speaker 2: a top ten quarterbacks simple as that. They have an 1957 01:46:52,360 --> 01:46:55,200 Speaker 2: all star offensive line. Maybe not as strong as it 1958 01:46:55,280 --> 01:46:57,879 Speaker 2: used to be, but you got plenty of offensive weavers 1959 01:46:57,960 --> 01:47:01,439 Speaker 2: with Chubb and Omari Cooper and David and Joku. In 1960 01:47:01,479 --> 01:47:04,000 Speaker 2: a defense that can get after the quarterback, the team 1961 01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:07,960 Speaker 2: has potential. But you know what that word potential stands for. 1962 01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:10,680 Speaker 2: Then again, it hinges on to Shaun Watson. Finally, the Steelers. 1963 01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:14,880 Speaker 2: If you line up all the fourth place projected teams 1964 01:47:14,880 --> 01:47:18,439 Speaker 2: in the National Football League, the Steelers are by far 1965 01:47:18,520 --> 01:47:22,400 Speaker 2: the best. Now, I don't think they'll win the division. 1966 01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:24,360 Speaker 2: If you think they are, you bet one hundred dollars 1967 01:47:24,360 --> 01:47:26,360 Speaker 2: brings you back six to fifty to plus six to fifty. 1968 01:47:26,920 --> 01:47:29,960 Speaker 2: Their defense ranked tenth in points eleven in yards allowed, 1969 01:47:30,040 --> 01:47:34,559 Speaker 2: despite TJ. Watt missing seven of the first eight games. 1970 01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:38,160 Speaker 2: Now it's no coincidence. They finished the year nine to eight, 1971 01:47:38,160 --> 01:47:41,000 Speaker 2: with six wins in their final seven games. The biggest 1972 01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:45,679 Speaker 2: concern for the Steelers is an offense that has trouble scoring. 1973 01:47:46,040 --> 01:47:47,960 Speaker 2: They couldn't score in a women's prison within a fifth 1974 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:52,840 Speaker 2: full of fifties. Kenny Pickett was just getting wet behind 1975 01:47:52,840 --> 01:47:56,080 Speaker 2: the years last year through for twenty four hundred yards, 1976 01:47:56,080 --> 01:48:00,479 Speaker 2: ten touchdowns, nine interceptions. Did play thirteen games running back 1977 01:48:00,520 --> 01:48:02,360 Speaker 2: Naji Harris, he ran for a thousand yard It's been 1978 01:48:02,360 --> 01:48:04,160 Speaker 2: the only average three and a half yards carry. So 1979 01:48:04,720 --> 01:48:08,200 Speaker 2: the Steelers have been reportedly impressed with Pickett in his commitment, 1980 01:48:08,240 --> 01:48:11,479 Speaker 2: and I think he's growing and he will start Week one. 1981 01:48:11,800 --> 01:48:14,919 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh also did add a couple of receivers, Alan Robinson, 1982 01:48:15,479 --> 01:48:19,280 Speaker 2: they added a new linebacker at Cole Hulkom, and they 1983 01:48:19,320 --> 01:48:21,599 Speaker 2: got themselves a nice rookie. You may remember this name, 1984 01:48:21,720 --> 01:48:25,680 Speaker 2: Joey Porter. Junior. Pittsburgh will be tough. It's part of 1985 01:48:25,720 --> 01:48:28,559 Speaker 2: their culture, it's what they do. Give it up. Mike 1986 01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:31,719 Speaker 2: Tomlin runs a strong ship. He's never had a losing record. 1987 01:48:31,800 --> 01:48:34,760 Speaker 2: Do not go to sleep on the Pittsburgh Steelers. So 1988 01:48:34,840 --> 01:48:37,280 Speaker 2: let's bring us to the win totals like we do 1989 01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:41,080 Speaker 2: every week. The Pittsburgh Steelers check that. Let's go back 1990 01:48:41,080 --> 01:48:43,800 Speaker 2: to Cincinnati. Their win total is eleven and a half. 1991 01:48:43,880 --> 01:48:46,400 Speaker 2: Now they have a target on their back a little 1992 01:48:46,439 --> 01:48:49,200 Speaker 2: bit this year because they won the division the last 1993 01:48:49,200 --> 01:48:52,439 Speaker 2: two years and they're tied with the Bills is having 1994 01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:55,240 Speaker 2: the best Super Bowl odds plus nine hundred in the 1995 01:48:55,240 --> 01:48:59,000 Speaker 2: a FC. So they have a very good offense. They 1996 01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:02,360 Speaker 2: have a proven offense, probably the best offense certainly in 1997 01:49:02,360 --> 01:49:05,360 Speaker 2: that division. That gives them a leg up. That gives 1998 01:49:05,400 --> 01:49:09,599 Speaker 2: them a leg up over Baltimore, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. Key 1999 01:49:09,640 --> 01:49:12,479 Speaker 2: stat the Bengals were eleven to zero twenty twenty two 2000 01:49:12,520 --> 01:49:15,360 Speaker 2: when they scored at least twenty one points. They were 2001 01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:18,960 Speaker 2: one on four in games they didn't something just mor 2002 01:49:18,960 --> 01:49:21,879 Speaker 2: Gris for the mill. Remember they only played sixteen games. 2003 01:49:22,240 --> 01:49:25,920 Speaker 2: The game was halted and unfortunate tomar Hamlin situation will 2004 01:49:25,960 --> 01:49:28,840 Speaker 2: the Bengals go over eleven and a half wins. I 2005 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:30,519 Speaker 2: think they will because I don't think they lose six 2006 01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:34,639 Speaker 2: games this year. I think they will. Baltimore over under 2007 01:49:34,640 --> 01:49:38,160 Speaker 2: ten wins. They're banking on Beckham Junior. They're banking on 2008 01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:42,280 Speaker 2: Zay Flowers becoming immediate contributors they have to be. And 2009 01:49:42,960 --> 01:49:45,000 Speaker 2: Baltimore proved to have one of the best defenses in 2010 01:49:45,040 --> 01:49:48,200 Speaker 2: the league and the best special teams player in Justin Tucker. Now, 2011 01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:52,960 Speaker 2: if you can get their offense cooking, and get cooking early, 2012 01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:56,320 Speaker 2: and stay healthy and be consistent, Baltimore is a very 2013 01:49:56,320 --> 01:50:00,320 Speaker 2: complete team. Tell me Baltimore can't win ten games to 2014 01:50:00,360 --> 01:50:02,880 Speaker 2: push they'd have to lose eight games to go under 2015 01:50:02,920 --> 01:50:06,599 Speaker 2: the number. I think Baltimore goes over their ten wins. 2016 01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:10,000 Speaker 2: Cleveland Browns stand away from this one. They're over Runders 2017 01:50:10,120 --> 01:50:14,479 Speaker 2: nine wins. The brown I mean they're third nods to 2018 01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:17,040 Speaker 2: win the division. Right. It's kind of a vote of 2019 01:50:17,080 --> 01:50:20,599 Speaker 2: confidence for a team that's banking heavily on their player, 2020 01:50:20,760 --> 01:50:23,720 Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson return to form. We don't know how much 2021 01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:25,760 Speaker 2: of his mojo he's really lost. You're gonna have to 2022 01:50:25,760 --> 01:50:27,880 Speaker 2: get him on the field in real live bullets. And 2023 01:50:27,960 --> 01:50:30,479 Speaker 2: I'm not talking about week one Week Two's talking about 2024 01:50:30,479 --> 01:50:33,880 Speaker 2: over a seventeen game season. Okay, Miles Garrett one of 2025 01:50:33,920 --> 01:50:36,200 Speaker 2: the best players in the division. So is Nick Chubb 2026 01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:39,719 Speaker 2: still gonna come back to Deshaun Watson? Just like I said? 2027 01:50:39,880 --> 01:50:43,200 Speaker 2: All right, Browns have only won more than eight games 2028 01:50:43,560 --> 01:50:48,559 Speaker 2: just once in the last fifteen seasons. So people pick 2029 01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 2: on the Lions, people pick on well, the Browns haven't 2030 01:50:51,000 --> 01:50:53,080 Speaker 2: done much either. Finally, the Steelers over under eight and 2031 01:50:53,120 --> 01:50:56,720 Speaker 2: a half wins. Steelers have the best value in the 2032 01:50:56,720 --> 01:51:00,519 Speaker 2: division by far. Their offense needs to improve, but they 2033 01:51:00,520 --> 01:51:02,919 Speaker 2: did make a very smart move by getting another playmaker 2034 01:51:02,960 --> 01:51:07,559 Speaker 2: and Alan Robinson and a couple of their additions on defense, 2035 01:51:07,600 --> 01:51:11,160 Speaker 2: including the rookie Joey Porter June. Now Pittsburgh, they're gonna 2036 01:51:11,200 --> 01:51:13,160 Speaker 2: be able to turn every game into a slug fest. 2037 01:51:13,160 --> 01:51:15,160 Speaker 2: That's what they do, a fistfight in the phone booth. 2038 01:51:15,960 --> 01:51:19,839 Speaker 2: This is the league's best interior defense. Remember, Mike Tomlin 2039 01:51:19,840 --> 01:51:22,559 Speaker 2: has never finished below five hundred during his sixteen year 2040 01:51:22,640 --> 01:51:26,400 Speaker 2: career as his Steelers head coach. Their total is eight 2041 01:51:26,479 --> 01:51:28,599 Speaker 2: and a half. They win nine games, nine and eight. 2042 01:51:28,600 --> 01:51:30,479 Speaker 2: They go for five hundred. You don't think they can 2043 01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:33,840 Speaker 2: do that. I think they can all right. By the 2044 01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:36,800 Speaker 2: way back to Baltimore and I talked about them going 2045 01:51:36,840 --> 01:51:39,840 Speaker 2: over their ten wins. They've averaged ten point six wins 2046 01:51:39,840 --> 01:51:43,240 Speaker 2: a game per season since Lamar Jackson was drafted. They 2047 01:51:43,240 --> 01:51:46,360 Speaker 2: were only under five hundred once. So there you have it. 2048 01:51:47,160 --> 01:51:52,519 Speaker 2: Hopefully Joel Burrow stays healthy. If so, what does that mean, Well, 2049 01:51:53,200 --> 01:51:55,639 Speaker 2: that means I think you're gonna see the Cincinnati Bengals 2050 01:51:56,040 --> 01:51:58,559 Speaker 2: prevail as long as Joe Burrow is healthy. But that 2051 01:51:58,680 --> 01:52:02,240 Speaker 2: is a division that is a little bit more wide open, 2052 01:52:03,160 --> 01:52:06,559 Speaker 2: and all four teams have a legitimate chance to at 2053 01:52:06,640 --> 01:52:11,840 Speaker 2: least get to the postseason. Coming up, the NIL is 2054 01:52:11,880 --> 01:52:14,479 Speaker 2: heading for a little bit of an overhaul. It'll change 2055 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,200 Speaker 2: the current landscape. We'll see if we can hone in 2056 01:52:17,520 --> 01:52:19,960 Speaker 2: on some of the key points. I'm Bernie Frattle. We're 2057 01:52:19,960 --> 01:52:22,360 Speaker 2: coming to you live from the Las Vegas Fox Sports 2058 01:52:22,439 --> 01:52:24,840 Speaker 2: Radio Tirect dot com studios. Keep it locked right here. 2059 01:52:24,960 --> 01:52:27,320 Speaker 2: You're listening to the Bernie Frattle Show on Fox Sports Radio. 2060 01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:38,439 Speaker 2: All right back on the Bernie Frattle Show. We're coming 2061 01:52:38,479 --> 01:52:41,720 Speaker 2: to you live from the Fox Sports Radio Tarret dot 2062 01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:43,840 Speaker 2: Com studios here in Las Vegas, Top of the Hour, 2063 01:52:43,840 --> 01:52:46,599 Speaker 2: what kind of brand new fool of you? Followed by 2064 01:52:46,800 --> 01:52:48,719 Speaker 2: what my name? And of course top of the Hour 2065 01:52:49,240 --> 01:52:52,519 Speaker 2: to kick it off, the USA and Sweden in a 2066 01:52:52,600 --> 01:52:55,400 Speaker 2: knockout stage. Listen to the nil's headed for an overhaul. 2067 01:52:55,920 --> 01:53:01,920 Speaker 2: All right, this pay for play, these these goofy incentives 2068 01:53:02,760 --> 01:53:08,439 Speaker 2: are are going to be altered. It wasn't that long ago. Name, 2069 01:53:08,479 --> 01:53:11,800 Speaker 2: image and likeness when it was first introduced to college athletics, 2070 01:53:12,960 --> 01:53:17,439 Speaker 2: was you know, a way to entice players or check that. 2071 01:53:17,960 --> 01:53:22,160 Speaker 2: It was an opportunity for players to you know, earn 2072 01:53:22,200 --> 01:53:26,479 Speaker 2: a few bucks, kiss baby, sign autographs the car dealership. 2073 01:53:26,479 --> 01:53:29,400 Speaker 2: But it's morphed into a high stakes free agency now 2074 01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:33,920 Speaker 2: very much. It's a new way to persuade players to 2075 01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:37,200 Speaker 2: attend certain schools. As you've seen over the past year, 2076 01:53:37,240 --> 01:53:39,719 Speaker 2: there have been a number of commissioners and coaches finally saying, 2077 01:53:40,160 --> 01:53:42,720 Speaker 2: all right, it's got to change. Be clear now, I 2078 01:53:43,080 --> 01:53:46,760 Speaker 2: get it. Playing paying players to attend colleges not new. 2079 01:53:46,760 --> 01:53:49,920 Speaker 2: What is new is the way some are hiding it 2080 01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:55,439 Speaker 2: behind these NIL rules and collectives long gone. You know, 2081 01:53:56,720 --> 01:53:59,960 Speaker 2: the days of dropping off a bag of cash or 2082 01:54:00,080 --> 01:54:04,040 Speaker 2: setting up parents the student athletes with jobs across the country. 2083 01:54:04,080 --> 01:54:06,400 Speaker 2: Those days are gone. Remember the scene from Blue Chips. 2084 01:54:07,160 --> 01:54:09,320 Speaker 2: That was the old way of doing things, But now 2085 01:54:09,320 --> 01:54:14,960 Speaker 2: it's that's laughable. Okay. But here's what's odd. You're a recruit. 2086 01:54:15,000 --> 01:54:17,120 Speaker 2: Before you ever play a single down or shoot a 2087 01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:20,479 Speaker 2: single free throw or anything, you can earn millions of 2088 01:54:20,560 --> 01:54:25,080 Speaker 2: dollars or whatever it is for free agency or pay 2089 01:54:25,120 --> 01:54:28,600 Speaker 2: for play. Those models have taken over college sports, and 2090 01:54:28,720 --> 01:54:31,599 Speaker 2: it happened in a very short period of time. The 2091 01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:35,800 Speaker 2: Pandora's box is open. It didn't take long for these 2092 01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:39,880 Speaker 2: waters to envelop the room, and student athletes are compensated 2093 01:54:39,920 --> 01:54:42,640 Speaker 2: in ways that no one saw coming on. Thirty three 2094 01:54:42,680 --> 01:54:48,040 Speaker 2: states haven't acted NIL laws, but there needs to be, 2095 01:54:48,320 --> 01:54:52,360 Speaker 2: and there's going to be a uniform national NIL standard. Right, 2096 01:54:52,400 --> 01:54:56,360 Speaker 2: you've got a patchwork of state laws from different states. 2097 01:54:56,400 --> 01:54:58,440 Speaker 2: They've either been passed or they've been proposed over the 2098 01:54:58,520 --> 01:55:03,560 Speaker 2: last couple of years. Ever since the student athlete was 2099 01:55:03,560 --> 01:55:06,000 Speaker 2: allowed to monetize their brand. I'll think about it, that's 2100 01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:08,760 Speaker 2: what they were supposed to be doing, monetizing their brand, 2101 01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,840 Speaker 2: their name, image and likeness, not becoming part of this 2102 01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:14,440 Speaker 2: high stakes free agency where you attended school and make 2103 01:55:14,480 --> 01:55:17,840 Speaker 2: a fortune. Before you ever arrive on campus. One of 2104 01:55:17,880 --> 01:55:20,040 Speaker 2: the biggest problems coach you see in today's world of 2105 01:55:20,080 --> 01:55:24,880 Speaker 2: recruiting is how brazen some of these people are about it. Recruits, 2106 01:55:24,960 --> 01:55:28,040 Speaker 2: advisors when it comes to their potential paycheck. It was 2107 01:55:28,080 --> 01:55:32,360 Speaker 2: something in the past you wouldn't gloat about it, and 2108 01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:36,080 Speaker 2: you intentionally create these bidding wars between schools, and not 2109 01:55:36,120 --> 01:55:39,040 Speaker 2: only that, it's playing out in public. Quinn yours, who 2110 01:55:39,080 --> 01:55:42,240 Speaker 2: will start for Texas this year, didn't play his senior 2111 01:55:42,320 --> 01:55:44,920 Speaker 2: year in high school in Texas, went to Ohio State. 2112 01:55:44,960 --> 01:55:48,880 Speaker 2: It was it was reported that he got a million 2113 01:55:48,880 --> 01:55:50,840 Speaker 2: dollar anil deal. Then we found out later. I think 2114 01:55:50,880 --> 01:55:52,600 Speaker 2: it only would kick and if he was starting, and 2115 01:55:52,640 --> 01:55:56,040 Speaker 2: he didn't start, didn't see the field obviously, and transferred 2116 01:55:56,040 --> 01:56:00,160 Speaker 2: back to Texas. All right, you are hearing reports of 2117 01:56:00,160 --> 01:56:04,040 Speaker 2: position coaches and recruiters talking about that. Whenever they're on 2118 01:56:04,080 --> 01:56:08,080 Speaker 2: the phone they're recruit seventy percent of them are asking 2119 01:56:08,120 --> 01:56:10,839 Speaker 2: about how much they can make before they even discuss 2120 01:56:10,920 --> 01:56:14,360 Speaker 2: the program. And these are Power five schools, right. The 2121 01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:17,560 Speaker 2: focus is completely shifted. In some cases. They don't ask 2122 01:56:17,600 --> 01:56:20,840 Speaker 2: about playing time anymore. They don't ask about how can 2123 01:56:20,880 --> 01:56:23,680 Speaker 2: you help me get to the NFL anymore to wondering 2124 01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:26,800 Speaker 2: how big is my first college check going to be? 2125 01:56:27,520 --> 01:56:30,400 Speaker 2: That creates a whole different level of weirdness and stress 2126 01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:34,920 Speaker 2: because they're comparing. Players are talking and comparing about what 2127 01:56:35,000 --> 01:56:38,160 Speaker 2: they made and what other players have earned in previous years, 2128 01:56:38,320 --> 01:56:41,720 Speaker 2: so automatically new guys coming in expecting that type of 2129 01:56:41,720 --> 01:56:45,080 Speaker 2: money for themselves. In reality, there are really only a 2130 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:48,200 Speaker 2: certain amount of players even worth six figure deals. And 2131 01:56:48,240 --> 01:56:51,800 Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is local advertising for NIL purposes. 2132 01:56:52,040 --> 01:56:55,040 Speaker 2: With what this was supposed to be, they got situations 2133 01:56:55,040 --> 01:56:57,920 Speaker 2: all over the country where players are worried about getting 2134 01:56:57,920 --> 01:57:02,000 Speaker 2: their monthly check, not winning games, not into the NFL, 2135 01:57:03,160 --> 01:57:06,360 Speaker 2: not how much playing time they're gonna get, but getting 2136 01:57:06,520 --> 01:57:10,680 Speaker 2: that monthly check. So make no mistake, we get it. 2137 01:57:11,240 --> 01:57:14,080 Speaker 2: Players have a chance to make money, offer up their name, 2138 01:57:14,120 --> 01:57:17,280 Speaker 2: image and likeness. But this doesn't mean you create a 2139 01:57:17,320 --> 01:57:19,800 Speaker 2: situation where eventually you're gonna have to have a salary cap. 2140 01:57:20,280 --> 01:57:24,800 Speaker 2: So look for a national uniformed NIL standard to fix 2141 01:57:24,840 --> 01:57:27,480 Speaker 2: this patchwork coming up? What kind of brand new fool 2142 01:57:27,520 --> 01:57:30,160 Speaker 2: of you? Followed by what my name?

After trying 2168 01:59:08,520 --> 01:59:11,240 Speaker 2: to tell the man they were closed, the employee says 2169 01:59:11,280 --> 01:59:15,080 Speaker 2: the driver became quote immensely upset, screaming that he would 2170 01:59:15,120 --> 01:59:18,920 Speaker 2: break their windows if they didn't serve him food.

After a few minutes, 2173 01:59:24,040 --> 01:59:27,760 Speaker 2: he left. The employees say they saw the pick up 2174 01:59:28,040 --> 01:59:30,600 Speaker 2: park nearby, and one of the employees began to drive away. 2175 01:59:31,040 --> 01:59:34,600 Speaker 2: They said they heard a single gunshot. The employee called 2176 01:59:34,680 --> 01:59:37,160 Speaker 2: nine one one, saying the man was shooting at them. 2177 01:59:38,720 --> 01:59:42,280 Speaker 2: Police arrived on the seat.

And he was yelling out, apparently, everybody, 2215 02:01:56,440 --> 02:01:59,120 Speaker 10: get down, give me all your money, to which in 2216 02:01:59,640 --> 02:02:02,680 Speaker 10: what happened and what was the response to that? Everybody 2217 02:02:02,760 --> 02:02:08,640 Speaker 10: in the whole store, customers and employees, owners included completely 2218 02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:13,160 Speaker 10: and just totally ignored the dude, just acted like, just 2219 02:02:13,200 --> 02:02:17,520 Speaker 10: went about their business. The dude was literally like he 2220 02:02:17,960 --> 02:02:20,320 Speaker 10: went through the whole procedure and they all kind of 2221 02:02:20,320 --> 02:02:22,080 Speaker 10: just looked at him and then just went back to normal, 2222 02:02:22,160 --> 02:02:25,000 Speaker 10: like just acting like everything's just casually going back to normal. 2223 02:02:25,200 --> 02:02:27,720 Speaker 10: So what did the guy do. He tried doing it again, 2224 02:02:28,200 --> 02:02:33,040 Speaker 10: and they just didn't do anything. So he, you know, 2225 02:02:33,240 --> 02:02:35,880 Speaker 10: he went through a little bit of some humiliation and thought, 2226 02:02:35,920 --> 02:02:38,560 Speaker 10: you know what, I'm out of here.

Tom Hamilton 2409 02:13:55,280 --> 02:14:00,320 Speaker 2: his call of the Ramirez Anderson fight. This is gonna 2410 02:14:00,480 --> 02:14:03,040 Speaker 2: this is gonna be a keeper. You're gonna hear this 2411 02:14:03,360 --> 02:14:08,800 Speaker 2: for years, all right. Remember back in twenty sixteen, when 2412 02:14:08,840 --> 02:14:14,120 Speaker 2: Texas's were not odor punched, Jose Bautista of Toronto caught 2413 02:14:14,200 --> 02:14:17,960 Speaker 2: him with a straight right flush, but Batista didn't go down. 2414 02:14:18,880 --> 02:14:21,240 Speaker 2: Oh my God, Tim Anderson went down like a sack 2415 02:14:21,280 --> 02:14:24,520 Speaker 2: of potatoes, and you saw him limping off the field. 2416 02:14:25,280 --> 02:14:27,120 Speaker 2: They had to help him off the field. They looked 2417 02:14:27,200 --> 02:14:31,920 Speaker 2: dazed and confused and dizzy and goofy. I think they 2418 02:14:32,040 --> 02:14:34,360 Speaker 2: probably said that, you know, they probably looked at him 2419 02:14:34,400 --> 02:14:36,400 Speaker 2: and said, what day is that? He goes well, French toast, 2420 02:14:36,480 --> 02:14:38,920 Speaker 2: you look like an idiot. I don't like Tim Anderson anyway. 2421 02:14:39,240 --> 02:14:41,880 Speaker 2: I guarantee you there are millions of people out there 2422 02:14:41,880 --> 02:14:44,680 Speaker 2: saying his clown had it coming. He is. He just 2423 02:14:44,800 --> 02:14:47,120 Speaker 2: is that kind of guy. Right. So it was a 2424 02:14:47,160 --> 02:14:51,760 Speaker 2: little bizarre because Jose Ramirez he slides into second base 2425 02:14:52,240 --> 02:14:54,960 Speaker 2: between the legs of Anderson. He was called safe, but 2426 02:14:55,000 --> 02:14:57,760 Speaker 2: then there was a little bit of a dispute. All 2427 02:14:57,800 --> 02:15:00,200 Speaker 2: of a sudden, Anderson looked like he stood over him, 2428 02:15:00,640 --> 02:15:04,720 Speaker 2: and then you know, he got up. Both players throw 2429 02:15:04,800 --> 02:15:07,920 Speaker 2: some punches. I those are some pretty weak rights that 2430 02:15:08,400 --> 02:15:11,200 Speaker 2: Anderson threw. Pathetic man. If he took boxing lessons, he 2431 02:15:11,240 --> 02:15:13,600 Speaker 2: needs to get his money back. His stance was bad, 2432 02:15:13,640 --> 02:15:17,520 Speaker 2: his hands were bad. Everything was bad. Right. But then 2433 02:15:17,560 --> 02:15:20,440 Speaker 2: as they started to throw, Ramiers landed the knockout blow. 2434 02:15:20,520 --> 02:15:24,600 Speaker 2: Anderson falls backwards. Here comes the dugouts. Here comes the bullpens. 2435 02:15:24,960 --> 02:15:28,920 Speaker 2: Everybody separated, but nothing is better than Guardians.

Now, I understand Ramirez, He's English, He's 2447 02:16:12,280 --> 02:16:14,160 Speaker 2: not great, and he said to an interpreter after the 2448 02:16:14,200 --> 02:16:17,800 Speaker 2: game that he told Anderson earlier in the game, you 2449 02:16:17,840 --> 02:16:21,080 Speaker 2: tagged players too hard. And there was even a controversial 2450 02:16:21,160 --> 02:16:24,480 Speaker 2: playing Friday Night's game, when he hit Guardian's rookie Brian Roach, 2451 02:16:24,480 --> 02:16:26,480 Speaker 2: he his hand hard enough to push it off second base. 2452 02:16:26,840 --> 02:16:30,080 Speaker 2: As soon as the play happened, he tapped and a 2453 02:16:30,120 --> 02:16:32,680 Speaker 2: good Ramiro said this to an interpreter. He tapped me 2454 02:16:32,720 --> 02:16:35,320 Speaker 2: again really hard, more than needed, and his reaction was like, 2455 02:16:35,560 --> 02:16:37,720 Speaker 2: I want to fight, and if he wanted to fight, 2456 02:16:37,760 --> 02:16:40,080 Speaker 2: I had to defend myself. I felt I was able 2457 02:16:40,120 --> 02:16:42,800 Speaker 2: to land one and he was Patrick, what are your 2458 02:16:42,800 --> 02:16:44,879 Speaker 2: thoughts on the fight? Too bad? Hard Cosell wasn't there 2459 02:16:44,920 --> 02:16:45,360 Speaker 2: to call it. 2460 02:16:46,160 --> 02:16:49,200 Speaker 10: Oh, and it was great with just those two. It's 2461 02:16:49,200 --> 02:16:51,879 Speaker 10: just it was so like just it started off like, 2462 02:16:51,920 --> 02:16:54,000 Speaker 10: you know, just a simple like RBI and all that 2463 02:16:54,160 --> 02:16:56,959 Speaker 10: good stuff, like a double gets there. He was kind 2464 02:16:57,000 --> 02:16:58,440 Speaker 10: of walking over him. I did see that because I 2465 02:16:58,480 --> 02:17:02,200 Speaker 10: was watching that earlier, just like to see like what happened. 2466 02:17:02,200 --> 02:17:04,320 Speaker 10: And then it looks like they were jowing at each 2467 02:17:04,360 --> 02:17:07,640 Speaker 10: other and then just boom goes freaking Anderson with the 2468 02:17:07,800 --> 02:17:10,000 Speaker 10: you know, with the hit, and I'm like it looked 2469 02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:12,039 Speaker 10: weak too, or he at least he whiffed on him. 2470 02:17:12,080 --> 02:17:15,039 Speaker 10: And then just Ramier's like, uh on just he went 2471 02:17:15,080 --> 02:17:16,720 Speaker 10: with nothing but Haymakers on him. 2472 02:17:16,720 --> 02:17:18,960 Speaker 2: And then how do you think Anderson? I do think 2473 02:17:19,000 --> 02:17:20,640 Speaker 2: Tim Anderson would do against Jake Paul? 2474 02:17:21,000 --> 02:17:25,440 Speaker 10: Uh? Well, I mean it's again it's it would you 2475 02:17:25,520 --> 02:17:28,000 Speaker 10: know what to be fair, I mean, he tends to 2476 02:17:28,040 --> 02:17:31,240 Speaker 10: go for guys that aren't boxers, so uh, maybe Tim 2477 02:17:31,280 --> 02:17:35,280 Speaker 10: Anderson will probably only last a round before Jake Paul 2478 02:17:35,280 --> 02:17:36,280 Speaker 10: probably knocks him out. 2479 02:17:36,720 --> 02:17:38,280 Speaker 2: Well, he only lasted ten seconds. 2480 02:17:38,440 --> 02:17:40,760 Speaker 10: Yeah that was against another baseball player. 2481 02:17:40,560 --> 02:17:44,360 Speaker 2: Get right, right, so anyway to be fair, Ramirez won 2482 02:17:44,400 --> 02:17:46,360 Speaker 2: the fight, but the White Sox did win the game 2483 02:17:46,800 --> 02:17:49,879 Speaker 2: seven to four. But it's a sidelight and Tim Anderson. 2484 02:17:50,320 --> 02:17:53,360 Speaker 2: Interestingly enough, this is one that'll really make headlines. He 2485 02:17:53,480 --> 02:17:57,160 Speaker 2: declined to speak to report Us after the game. Decline 2486 02:17:57,440 --> 02:17:59,280 Speaker 2: to speak.

I'm Steve de Seger. 2520 02:19:39,320 --> 02:19:42,160 Speaker 2: All right, thanks Steve. I can tell you watching this game, 2521 02:19:42,200 --> 02:19:44,600 Speaker 2: which is now in the thirtieth minute, this is by 2522 02:19:44,640 --> 02:19:47,960 Speaker 2: far the calmest most collected the US has looked, both 2523 02:19:48,440 --> 02:19:52,600 Speaker 2: in and out of possession. Coach Vlatko made some tactical 2524 02:19:52,720 --> 02:19:55,800 Speaker 2: changes and they appeared to have work. Sweden looked happy 2525 02:19:56,280 --> 02:19:58,520 Speaker 2: to sit back and absorb pressure and play on the counter, 2526 02:19:58,920 --> 02:20:00,920 Speaker 2: which US will have to watch for. But this has 2527 02:20:00,959 --> 02:20:04,080 Speaker 2: been a good chess match so far, with a couple 2528 02:20:04,080 --> 02:20:06,680 Speaker 2: of good shots on goal by the US. It's time 2529 02:20:06,760 --> 02:20:08,640 Speaker 2: for Chris Burfetts World of Soccer. 2530 02:20:09,720 --> 02:20:25,800 Speaker 1: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes the international drum. It's 2531 02:20:25,840 --> 02:20:29,039 Speaker 1: all here in this report from the World of Soccer. 2532 02:20:30,160 --> 02:20:33,120 Speaker 2: Well, Chris, it's already been eventful for Trinity Rodman. She 2533 02:20:33,320 --> 02:20:36,760 Speaker 2: blasted a shot on goal and had to sting the goalkeeper. 2534 02:20:37,120 --> 02:20:39,720 Speaker 2: Then she collides in midair after getting undercut, and a 2535 02:20:39,840 --> 02:20:43,760 Speaker 2: yellow Card and Sweden looking dangerous on corners, but they 2536 02:20:43,760 --> 02:20:45,959 Speaker 2: couldn't convert. What do you see in so far, Chris. 2537 02:20:46,520 --> 02:20:48,800 Speaker 13: Yeah, putting the pot on for this one, Bernie. The 2538 02:20:48,920 --> 02:20:51,280 Speaker 13: US is looking probably its most calm, and we've kind 2539 02:20:51,280 --> 02:20:53,720 Speaker 13: of seen it since the Vietnam game You've had. 2540 02:20:53,760 --> 02:20:55,160 Speaker 7: As you mentioned Trinity. 2541 02:20:54,840 --> 02:20:58,400 Speaker 13: Rodman, she's been very good out there, getting some really 2542 02:20:58,560 --> 02:21:02,720 Speaker 13: impression converting from a here. Not really anything getting. 2543 02:21:02,440 --> 02:21:04,800 Speaker 7: Home yet for the US, but as you say, they've 2544 02:21:04,840 --> 02:21:05,640 Speaker 7: had about. 2545 02:21:05,360 --> 02:21:08,160 Speaker 13: Like I think four shots so far, two one goal 2546 02:21:08,760 --> 02:21:11,480 Speaker 13: if I believe, they've had a couple of free kicks 2547 02:21:11,520 --> 02:21:13,760 Speaker 13: on a few set pieces. Nothing really getting home yet. 2548 02:21:13,879 --> 02:21:16,240 Speaker 13: But you know, I'm not I'm not really liking where 2549 02:21:16,280 --> 02:21:17,640 Speaker 13: the mid mid line's going. 2550 02:21:17,760 --> 02:21:19,640 Speaker 7: But yeah, I would agree with you. 2551 02:21:19,800 --> 02:21:23,039 Speaker 13: Just a lot of louts much better form than we've 2552 02:21:23,080 --> 02:21:23,640 Speaker 13: seen so far. 2553 02:21:24,440 --> 02:21:28,600 Speaker 2: It feels like they're spacing, they're passing there, you know, 2554 02:21:28,720 --> 02:21:33,959 Speaker 2: they're you know, their tactics far more measured tonight, far 2555 02:21:34,040 --> 02:21:36,080 Speaker 2: more technical than they've been in previous games. 2556 02:21:37,360 --> 02:21:39,080 Speaker 13: Yeah, right now, we've got a bit of a chess 2557 02:21:39,080 --> 02:21:41,840 Speaker 13: match on our hands for what this is. I definitely 2558 02:21:41,920 --> 02:21:44,280 Speaker 13: think they've put out probably their best lineup out here 2559 02:21:44,320 --> 02:21:47,200 Speaker 13: and giving Trinny Rodman, who's a player I think we 2560 02:21:47,240 --> 02:21:50,199 Speaker 13: all kind of expected to start to grow and develop, 2561 02:21:50,600 --> 02:21:53,280 Speaker 13: getting giving her a lot more chances to go out 2562 02:21:53,320 --> 02:21:55,119 Speaker 13: there and really put this team on her back. 2563 02:21:55,640 --> 02:21:57,120 Speaker 7: It's really paying off. 2564 02:21:57,200 --> 02:22:00,240 Speaker 13: But you know, we're to give about ten minutes, say 2565 02:22:00,240 --> 02:22:02,320 Speaker 13: about ten fifteen minutes away from halftime. 2566 02:22:02,400 --> 02:22:03,160 Speaker 7: It'll be interesting to. 2567 02:22:03,120 --> 02:22:05,760 Speaker 13: See what adjustments Sweden make, because as long as it 2568 02:22:05,800 --> 02:22:08,879 Speaker 13: still remains level, Sweden still has this pretty well under 2569 02:22:08,879 --> 02:22:11,879 Speaker 13: their control. They didn't play a lot of their starters 2570 02:22:12,360 --> 02:22:14,920 Speaker 13: their last group stage match since they were already through, 2571 02:22:15,040 --> 02:22:17,120 Speaker 13: so they'll have a lot of rest on their side. 2572 02:22:17,160 --> 02:22:18,840 Speaker 13: I'll be interesting to see what happens when he gets 2573 02:22:18,840 --> 02:22:19,760 Speaker 13: down to the substitutes. 2574 02:22:19,760 --> 02:22:24,280 Speaker 2: Here a phenomenal quarter kick hits the crossbar and skids over. 2575 02:22:25,440 --> 02:22:27,520 Speaker 2: You're right, we've got a hell of a chess match here. 2576 02:22:27,600 --> 02:22:31,080 Speaker 2: I got a funny feeling this is going to a shootout. 2577 02:22:31,160 --> 02:22:33,959 Speaker 2: This may be a nil nil shootout. We shall see. 2578 02:22:34,360 --> 02:22:38,640 Speaker 2: But the US offensively looks very prolific. And by the way, 2579 02:22:38,720 --> 02:22:41,879 Speaker 2: I don't know much about Emily Sonnet. She actually started 2580 02:22:41,879 --> 02:22:44,959 Speaker 2: the midfield for Rose Level. Do you know, can you 2581 02:22:44,959 --> 02:22:46,519 Speaker 2: tell us anything about Emily Sonic. 2582 02:22:48,080 --> 02:22:50,240 Speaker 13: I really don't have too many notes on her right now. 2583 02:22:50,280 --> 02:22:52,480 Speaker 13: I do know Savannah Damella, who we've had our eye on, 2584 02:22:52,680 --> 02:22:55,040 Speaker 13: is right now on the bench, probably going to come 2585 02:22:55,040 --> 02:22:57,760 Speaker 13: in as a substitute here later on as they try 2586 02:22:57,760 --> 02:23:01,320 Speaker 13: to burn through bodies and obviously keep snil nil will 2587 02:23:01,320 --> 02:23:04,080 Speaker 13: have to go through extra time. So I think they're 2588 02:23:04,120 --> 02:23:06,560 Speaker 13: just kind of playing a safe playing playing deep off 2589 02:23:06,600 --> 02:23:08,879 Speaker 13: the bench here, just just to make sure if this 2590 02:23:08,959 --> 02:23:11,080 Speaker 13: does go a full one hundred and twenty minutes, that 2591 02:23:11,120 --> 02:23:13,160 Speaker 13: they will have more bodies to spend. 2592 02:23:14,879 --> 02:23:19,879 Speaker 2: So we as we observe this game is we're almost 2593 02:23:20,240 --> 02:23:23,480 Speaker 2: through the first half. Any other news in the world 2594 02:23:23,480 --> 02:23:26,039 Speaker 2: of soccer you got for us tonight, Well. 2595 02:23:25,920 --> 02:23:29,240 Speaker 13: I think if I just wanted to revisit again the retirement. 2596 02:23:29,280 --> 02:23:31,560 Speaker 7: I was having a couple of conversations. 2597 02:23:30,800 --> 02:23:35,199 Speaker 13: And I once again want to congratulate John Mluigi Buffon, 2598 02:23:35,280 --> 02:23:38,280 Speaker 13: Gigi Buffon on a fantastic career. We got to hit 2599 02:23:38,320 --> 02:23:40,320 Speaker 13: on him a little bit last night. 2600 02:23:40,440 --> 02:23:41,160 Speaker 7: But for those who. 2601 02:23:41,080 --> 02:23:45,199 Speaker 13: Don't know's it's a bit of a enigma over here, 2602 02:23:45,320 --> 02:23:50,280 Speaker 13: but you know, Tuscany's finest been playing since nineteen ninety three. 2603 02:23:51,280 --> 02:23:53,960 Speaker 13: In nineteen ninety five, excuse me, for Parma, spent about 2604 02:23:53,959 --> 02:23:57,440 Speaker 13: seventeen years at Juventus, probably one of the greatest goalkeepers 2605 02:23:57,440 --> 02:24:01,119 Speaker 13: and retiring at the age of forty five. A massive 2606 02:24:01,160 --> 02:24:03,720 Speaker 13: amount of international caps that appearance is one hundred and 2607 02:24:03,760 --> 02:24:09,320 Speaker 13: seventy six, the seventy six multiple FIFA World Cup tournaments 2608 02:24:09,320 --> 02:24:13,600 Speaker 13: of World Cup win under his belt, recognized by Pele 2609 02:24:13,920 --> 02:24:16,520 Speaker 13: and in Bape. Is one of the greatest goalkeepers ever. 2610 02:24:16,640 --> 02:24:20,280 Speaker 13: It's just been a phenomenal, phenomenal career for him. Otherwise, 2611 02:24:20,320 --> 02:24:21,879 Speaker 13: the only other bit of news I have right now 2612 02:24:21,879 --> 02:24:24,440 Speaker 13: Bernie is Leonel Messi. I don't think we've talked enough 2613 02:24:24,440 --> 02:24:26,400 Speaker 13: about him. I don't think we've ever mentioned him before. 2614 02:24:27,480 --> 02:24:30,640 Speaker 13: This past week added two more goals to his sheet. 2615 02:24:31,120 --> 02:24:34,520 Speaker 13: Just seems completely unstoppable at MLS and seems to stop 2616 02:24:34,760 --> 02:24:38,320 Speaker 13: the box office as well. I saw that SC Dallas, 2617 02:24:38,320 --> 02:24:41,720 Speaker 13: who into Miami's come is his first away It's basically 2618 02:24:41,720 --> 02:24:45,200 Speaker 13: gonna be his first away game here and Messi, the 2619 02:24:45,200 --> 02:24:48,039 Speaker 13: Messy effect is in full swing. To get in. It 2620 02:24:48,080 --> 02:24:51,880 Speaker 13: looks like Taylor Swift concert ticket prices out there, I 2621 02:24:51,920 --> 02:24:54,080 Speaker 13: believe the lowest price you can find right now. It's 2622 02:24:54,080 --> 02:24:56,840 Speaker 13: sold out in minutes and about four hundred dollars to 2623 02:24:56,879 --> 02:24:59,680 Speaker 13: get in to watch to watch Leonel Messi and Dallas here. 2624 02:24:59,600 --> 02:25:02,720 Speaker 2: In the League Cup, by the way, not for nothing, 2625 02:25:02,800 --> 02:25:05,880 Speaker 2: just to digress, it was Lindsay Horand whose header went 2626 02:25:05,920 --> 02:25:08,080 Speaker 2: off the crossbar a couple of good. 2627 02:25:08,000 --> 02:25:10,199 Speaker 13: Courts his entire tournament. 2628 02:25:10,320 --> 02:25:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely so, I'm gonna let you enjoy the game, Chris. 2629 02:25:15,320 --> 02:25:19,520 Speaker 2: Any final thoughts as we wind down the first half? 2630 02:25:19,560 --> 02:25:22,440 Speaker 2: And Uh, now that we've had a chance to get 2631 02:25:22,440 --> 02:25:24,680 Speaker 2: a bit of a sneak feet preview, do you want 2632 02:25:24,680 --> 02:25:26,920 Speaker 2: to make any predictions? I'm gonna be I'm gonna predict 2633 02:25:26,959 --> 02:25:28,880 Speaker 2: this is going to a shootout. That's all. I'm gonna 2634 02:25:28,879 --> 02:25:30,040 Speaker 2: predict it to this point. 2635 02:25:30,400 --> 02:25:31,879 Speaker 7: Yeah, I'll join you on that. 2636 02:25:31,959 --> 02:25:33,920 Speaker 13: I believe this is probably gonna go to a shootout 2637 02:25:34,000 --> 02:25:35,880 Speaker 13: or at the very least extra time. I still like 2638 02:25:36,000 --> 02:25:36,800 Speaker 13: Sweden the year. 2639 02:25:37,320 --> 02:25:39,400 Speaker 7: I think there are a pack at some point going 2640 02:25:39,440 --> 02:25:40,200 Speaker 7: to kick in. 2641 02:25:40,800 --> 02:25:40,879 Speaker 5: Uh. 2642 02:25:40,959 --> 02:25:43,039 Speaker 13: The US is really spending a lot of energy here 2643 02:25:43,120 --> 02:25:44,320 Speaker 13: right now, and I'm gonna. 2644 02:25:44,080 --> 02:25:44,880 Speaker 7: Be curious see if they can. 2645 02:25:44,959 --> 02:25:46,320 Speaker 2: What's a good observation for it. 2646 02:25:47,160 --> 02:25:47,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean. 2647 02:25:48,160 --> 02:25:51,440 Speaker 13: They've scored, they've scored, if I if I remember correctly 2648 02:25:51,480 --> 02:25:55,200 Speaker 13: about like what do we say last last night, Bernie, 2649 02:25:55,240 --> 02:25:56,440 Speaker 13: I don't have my notes in front of me for 2650 02:25:56,480 --> 02:25:59,320 Speaker 13: this five six, seven goals so far in this World Cup. 2651 02:25:59,560 --> 02:26:01,240 Speaker 7: I just say at some point that will turn on. 2652 02:26:01,440 --> 02:26:03,720 Speaker 13: The US have to really capitalize them a chance here 2653 02:26:03,720 --> 02:26:04,680 Speaker 13: in the first half or else. 2654 02:26:05,680 --> 02:26:08,359 Speaker 2: Seen actually eight four on corner kicks. 2655 02:26:09,800 --> 02:26:12,760 Speaker 7: One. Look that one looks real good there. 2656 02:26:12,840 --> 02:26:16,440 Speaker 2: But just wide, ye know, I'm going to agreement with you. 2657 02:26:17,360 --> 02:26:19,800 Speaker 2: If we go back to to the beginning of the game, 2658 02:26:20,680 --> 02:26:23,640 Speaker 2: Sweden looked happy to sit back and absorb the pressure. 2659 02:26:24,160 --> 02:26:26,720 Speaker 2: I think that's by design. Sweden plays on the counter. 2660 02:26:27,200 --> 02:26:30,320 Speaker 2: So all that's gonna take is one turnover for Sweden 2661 02:26:30,360 --> 02:26:33,600 Speaker 2: to you know, baby, turn the tables and maybe they 2662 02:26:33,640 --> 02:26:35,000 Speaker 2: win to sing one nothing. I don't know. 2663 02:26:35,879 --> 02:26:37,280 Speaker 7: Well, let's let's assume the. 2664 02:26:38,800 --> 02:26:39,199 Speaker 2: Go ahead. 2665 02:26:39,480 --> 02:26:42,320 Speaker 7: Let's yeah, let's assume the United States loves this too. 2666 02:26:42,320 --> 02:26:44,320 Speaker 13: There is a tough road ahead. We got to sing 2667 02:26:44,320 --> 02:26:47,959 Speaker 13: Netherlands here coming up in a few days. You know, 2668 02:26:48,120 --> 02:26:50,000 Speaker 13: the US could probably see a rematch of that. But 2669 02:26:50,000 --> 02:26:52,039 Speaker 13: before but whoever wins this is gonna have to take 2670 02:26:52,120 --> 02:26:55,440 Speaker 13: on Japan next. Japan just destroyed Norway three to one, 2671 02:26:55,600 --> 02:26:57,920 Speaker 13: and I think they're probably the best team left in 2672 02:26:57,920 --> 02:26:59,360 Speaker 13: this knockout rounds, So. 2673 02:26:59,840 --> 02:27:01,840 Speaker 7: Uh, this is a this is a real fight, but 2674 02:27:01,879 --> 02:27:03,560 Speaker 7: you got to make sure you have some energy left 2675 02:27:03,560 --> 02:27:04,520 Speaker 7: for the next one after this. 2676 02:27:05,320 --> 02:27:07,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't think about the energy part you bring 2677 02:27:07,360 --> 02:27:10,439 Speaker 2: You bring up a good point and uh what's interesting 2678 02:27:10,560 --> 02:27:14,040 Speaker 2: is of course one of the problems because the US 2679 02:27:14,040 --> 02:27:18,879 Speaker 2: did not win their knockout stage or check out the 2680 02:27:18,920 --> 02:27:21,520 Speaker 2: group stage. Yeah, it would be another and be another 2681 02:27:21,520 --> 02:27:23,120 Speaker 2: odd ball starting time. 2682 02:27:23,760 --> 02:27:24,120 Speaker 5: Uh. 2683 02:27:24,360 --> 02:27:26,879 Speaker 2: One one final thing. You you are right, the US 2684 02:27:26,959 --> 02:27:30,040 Speaker 2: is expending a ton of energy here so far, nothing 2685 02:27:30,080 --> 02:27:34,320 Speaker 2: to show for it as you observe, as you observe 2686 02:27:34,400 --> 02:27:37,480 Speaker 2: this game, do you think that perhaps comes back to 2687 02:27:37,480 --> 02:27:39,280 Speaker 2: bite the US late later in the game. 2688 02:27:40,520 --> 02:27:42,720 Speaker 13: I think they have the depth and boards to really 2689 02:27:42,800 --> 02:27:46,080 Speaker 13: make this happen. We've talked about before that we needed 2690 02:27:46,120 --> 02:27:47,880 Speaker 13: to give to Alex Morgan and we needed to see 2691 02:27:47,920 --> 02:27:51,600 Speaker 13: Sophia Smiths get involved. They have that depth there and 2692 02:27:51,640 --> 02:27:54,600 Speaker 13: it's but unfortunately that depth is very young. So late 2693 02:27:54,680 --> 02:27:57,600 Speaker 13: game situation here, when you're starting to have a substitute 2694 02:27:57,600 --> 02:28:00,360 Speaker 13: on some of your some of your players like Pino 2695 02:28:00,760 --> 02:28:03,920 Speaker 13: like and Savannah Zamelo, I just have a question, can 2696 02:28:03,959 --> 02:28:07,200 Speaker 13: you keep this up when Alyssa Thompson comes in, can 2697 02:28:07,240 --> 02:28:09,320 Speaker 13: you keep this up? Can you keep the same energy up, 2698 02:28:09,360 --> 02:28:11,880 Speaker 13: because Sweden will have some fresh bodies as well, and 2699 02:28:12,360 --> 02:28:14,560 Speaker 13: I just think they're just a deeper team right now. 2700 02:28:14,640 --> 02:28:17,080 Speaker 7: But we will see. They'll have to just. 2701 02:28:17,080 --> 02:28:19,080 Speaker 13: Keep that pressure on and that's hard to do for 2702 02:28:19,200 --> 02:28:21,240 Speaker 13: ninety minutes. At some point you just need to just 2703 02:28:21,360 --> 02:28:22,959 Speaker 13: kind of get put on your back heels. 2704 02:28:23,600 --> 02:28:27,000 Speaker 2: You just wonder. You know, they've created some close, high 2705 02:28:27,080 --> 02:28:30,400 Speaker 2: danger chances, none of them are cashing, and you start 2706 02:28:30,400 --> 02:28:32,400 Speaker 2: to get frustrated. I've seen it a thousand times in 2707 02:28:32,440 --> 02:28:35,200 Speaker 2: hockey where a goalie gets pepper pepper pepper to all 2708 02:28:35,200 --> 02:28:37,120 Speaker 2: of a sudden, there's a turnover, a team goes the 2709 02:28:37,160 --> 02:28:39,600 Speaker 2: other way and scores and breaks your back. All right, Chris, 2710 02:28:39,760 --> 02:28:41,080 Speaker 2: enjoy the game. We'll talk soon. 2711 02:28:42,120 --> 02:28:42,680 Speaker 7: Talk you soon. 2712 02:28:43,160 --> 02:28:46,280 Speaker 2: Chris perfets World Off Soccer coming up.

Yes, betting on preseason it might be 2715 02:28:53,840 --> 02:28:55,840 Speaker 2: bocked by people who don't know what they're talking about, 2716 02:28:55,920 --> 02:28:58,480 Speaker 2: like well, Trey Wingle. I'm not gonna mention names, but 2717 02:28:58,560 --> 02:29:02,800 Speaker 2: in reality, preseason wagering it's dominated by sharp Betters. I'll 2718 02:29:02,840 --> 02:29:06,000 Speaker 2: explain why. Coming up, I'm Bernie Fraddle.

We get to Saga tonight, and 2731 02:29:48,640 --> 02:29:52,440 Speaker 2: of course Patrick sweek Man in many talents keeping us 2732 02:29:52,440 --> 02:29:56,760 Speaker 2: food together. Great teamwork, guys, Really appreciate the effort you 2733 02:29:56,879 --> 02:30:02,320 Speaker 2: do making the show go. All right, The NFL preseason 2734 02:30:02,400 --> 02:30:05,720 Speaker 2: is here. Jets rally back from a sixteen to seven deficit. 2735 02:30:06,760 --> 02:30:08,880 Speaker 2: I will tell you, will be honest. The pros were 2736 02:30:09,000 --> 02:30:12,760 Speaker 2: on the Jets opened up plus two, close minus two. 2737 02:30:13,320 --> 02:30:17,800 Speaker 2: The reason was simple. In the NFL preseason. It's the 2738 02:30:17,840 --> 02:30:21,440 Speaker 2: only sport that I know. We're on one side of 2739 02:30:21,440 --> 02:30:24,440 Speaker 2: the ball, you've got a coach who really wants to win, 2740 02:30:24,560 --> 02:30:26,600 Speaker 2: and on the other side, you got a coach, frankly, 2741 02:30:26,640 --> 02:30:29,879 Speaker 2: who doesn't care if they win. That was actually the case. 2742 02:30:30,360 --> 02:30:32,800 Speaker 2: It didn't work Thursday night, but that was actually the case. 2743 02:30:33,280 --> 02:30:37,080 Speaker 2: Kevin Stefanski tipped his hand, and two things you look 2744 02:30:37,160 --> 02:30:42,760 Speaker 2: for are quarterbacks and coaches, all right. In reality, preseason 2745 02:30:42,800 --> 02:30:46,879 Speaker 2: wagering is actually dominated by sharpbetters. And if you don't 2746 02:30:46,879 --> 02:30:49,200 Speaker 2: think it's easier to win in the preseason and the 2747 02:30:49,200 --> 02:30:53,160 Speaker 2: regular season, then you figure out why you're only really 2748 02:30:53,200 --> 02:30:57,800 Speaker 2: allowed to bat to bet a fraction of the handle, 2749 02:30:57,959 --> 02:31:00,920 Speaker 2: a fraction of the wagers that you normally be allowed 2750 02:31:00,959 --> 02:31:05,200 Speaker 2: to on a regular season game. Here in Vegas, you 2751 02:31:05,280 --> 02:31:07,360 Speaker 2: might get down three hundred grand on a regular season game. 2752 02:31:07,560 --> 02:31:10,840 Speaker 2: You might only get down three grand on a preseason game. 2753 02:31:10,840 --> 02:31:13,840 Speaker 2: It's an easy sport to bet if you spend your 2754 02:31:13,879 --> 02:31:17,760 Speaker 2: time doing the research. That's why the line flipped four points. Now, 2755 02:31:17,840 --> 02:31:20,320 Speaker 2: one of the reasons it made it flip is because 2756 02:31:20,879 --> 02:31:23,199 Speaker 2: Kevin Stefanski said, obviously he wasn't gonna play the Sean 2757 02:31:23,200 --> 02:31:26,160 Speaker 2: Watson wasn't gonna even play Joshua Dobbs, so that left 2758 02:31:26,240 --> 02:31:28,920 Speaker 2: Kellen Mond who's been a negative zero in the NFL, 2759 02:31:29,000 --> 02:31:32,120 Speaker 2: and Dorian Thompson Robinson, a fifth round draft choice, not 2760 02:31:32,160 --> 02:31:34,320 Speaker 2: sure if he's a major league quarterback. He's a runner, 2761 02:31:35,480 --> 02:31:38,800 Speaker 2: and you put that up against the quarterback rotation. Obviously, 2762 02:31:38,879 --> 02:31:41,720 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers was gonna play. But Zach Wilson lecomer hate him. 2763 02:31:42,280 --> 02:31:45,160 Speaker 2: He's actually won games in the regular season. Tim Boyle 2764 02:31:45,400 --> 02:31:48,959 Speaker 2: has actually started games in the regular season. And Chris Streveler, 2765 02:31:49,640 --> 02:31:53,480 Speaker 2: who is a borderline major league quarterback. He's actually sensational 2766 02:31:53,520 --> 02:31:57,400 Speaker 2: in last year's preseason, completing twenty four of thirty three passes, 2767 02:31:57,400 --> 02:32:01,080 Speaker 2: two hundred and eighty yards, five touchdowns, interception. They all 2768 02:32:01,120 --> 02:32:05,440 Speaker 2: had NFL experience. Meanwhile, Robert Sala you may have known 2769 02:32:05,480 --> 02:32:08,720 Speaker 2: this five oh to one historically in the NFL preseason. 2770 02:32:08,959 --> 02:32:10,880 Speaker 2: He likes to win. Stefanski was one and two in 2771 02:32:10,920 --> 02:32:12,960 Speaker 2: the preseason and he said he was going to start 2772 02:32:13,040 --> 02:32:16,760 Speaker 2: third stringer Kellen Mann and then go with Dorian Thompson Robinson. 2773 02:32:17,040 --> 02:32:20,320 Speaker 2: You could tell Cleveland didn't care. Josh Dobbs, the backup, 2774 02:32:20,320 --> 02:32:23,480 Speaker 2: wasn't even playing. That's the ultimate scenario where one team 2775 02:32:23,520 --> 02:32:26,039 Speaker 2: wants to win the other team doesn't care. This time, 2776 02:32:26,120 --> 02:32:29,560 Speaker 2: it just happened not to work. But speaking of coaches, 2777 02:32:29,600 --> 02:32:34,080 Speaker 2: in case you haven't heard, Baltimore coach John Harbaugh clearly 2778 02:32:34,120 --> 02:32:36,560 Speaker 2: wants to win. The Ravens have won twenty three straight 2779 02:32:36,600 --> 02:32:39,760 Speaker 2: preseason games twenty eighty of the last thirty one twenty 2780 02:32:39,800 --> 02:32:42,039 Speaker 2: six and five against the Number. They just do it. 2781 02:32:42,200 --> 02:32:44,720 Speaker 2: They find a way to win, which leads to an 2782 02:32:44,760 --> 02:32:49,360 Speaker 2: angle for next week Super Bowl losers. That would be 2783 02:32:49,400 --> 02:32:53,120 Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Eagles in the last thirty years when they 2784 02:32:53,200 --> 02:32:56,080 Speaker 2: play their first game in the preseason six and twenty 2785 02:32:56,120 --> 02:33:00,520 Speaker 2: four against the Number. And oh, by the way, who 2786 02:33:00,520 --> 02:33:05,280 Speaker 2: do the Eagles play? They play Baltimore. Baltimore twenty three 2787 02:33:05,440 --> 02:33:08,840 Speaker 2: wins in a row. So there's a game you want 2788 02:33:08,840 --> 02:33:09,320 Speaker 2: to look at. 2789 02:33:09,360 --> 02:33:09,480 Speaker 5: Now. 2790 02:33:09,560 --> 02:33:12,600 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean the sharps will be on Baltimore, but 2791 02:33:12,640 --> 02:33:16,000 Speaker 2: if you want to do something square, play the money line. 2792 02:33:16,080 --> 02:33:17,800 Speaker 2: I think Baltimore is laying three and a half, which 2793 02:33:17,879 --> 02:33:21,360 Speaker 2: seems cheap right now. But Pears might let that line run, 2794 02:33:21,440 --> 02:33:23,200 Speaker 2: might try to hit a middle or maybe you just 2795 02:33:23,640 --> 02:33:26,240 Speaker 2: maybe you just throw a chunk. What the hell? On 2796 02:33:26,280 --> 02:33:29,840 Speaker 2: the preseason and bet the money line because I do 2797 02:33:29,920 --> 02:33:33,040 Speaker 2: expect Baltimore to want to win that game. So who 2798 02:33:33,080 --> 02:33:35,080 Speaker 2: actually are the best and worst coaches? Who can you 2799 02:33:35,160 --> 02:33:38,400 Speaker 2: hang your head on? Mike Tomlin, he likes to win 2800 02:33:38,440 --> 02:33:40,959 Speaker 2: in the preseason. He's fifteen to three in the past 2801 02:33:41,320 --> 02:33:44,119 Speaker 2: five preseasons, including three to zero last year. And when 2802 02:33:44,160 --> 02:33:46,520 Speaker 2: you look at the and again, you look at quarterback 2803 02:33:46,600 --> 02:33:50,400 Speaker 2: rotations and you look at coaches. The Steelers have a 2804 02:33:50,400 --> 02:33:54,680 Speaker 2: pretty strong quarterback rotation with Kenny Pickett, Mitch Rubisky, who 2805 02:33:54,680 --> 02:33:57,000 Speaker 2: actually took the Bears of the playoffs in twenty eighteen. 2806 02:33:57,200 --> 02:33:58,720 Speaker 2: It would have won a playoff game if not for 2807 02:33:58,760 --> 02:34:02,280 Speaker 2: the double doing field goal. Then Mason Rudolph not the 2808 02:34:02,320 --> 02:34:06,520 Speaker 2: worst quarterback rotation. Sean McDermott of Buffalo, He's riding a 2809 02:34:06,640 --> 02:34:10,000 Speaker 2: nine to one preseason run. He's got a very good 2810 02:34:10,080 --> 02:34:13,920 Speaker 2: quarterback rotation. I don't think you'll see Josh Allen play much, 2811 02:34:13,959 --> 02:34:18,400 Speaker 2: but you'll see Kyle Allen and Matt Barkley, Kyle Shanahan 2812 02:34:18,760 --> 02:34:22,120 Speaker 2: seven and three in the preseason. Pretty good rotation. I 2813 02:34:22,120 --> 02:34:27,440 Speaker 2: don't think much of Trey Lance, but Sam Darnold brock Purty, Yeah, 2814 02:34:27,560 --> 02:34:32,560 Speaker 2: how about Jacksonville, Doug Peterson he's two and ten on 2815 02:34:32,600 --> 02:34:36,880 Speaker 2: the preseason. Zach Taylor three and seven, Dan Campbell, Matt LeFleur, 2816 02:34:37,360 --> 02:34:42,080 Speaker 2: Sean McVay, Brandon Staley, they're all one and five. Things 2817 02:34:42,080 --> 02:34:44,000 Speaker 2: can be deceiving. Remember the Raiders went four and oh 2818 02:34:44,160 --> 02:34:47,680 Speaker 2: last year under Josh McDaniels. And what did they do 2819 02:34:48,200 --> 02:34:51,920 Speaker 2: in the regular season. By the way, I covered the 2820 02:34:51,959 --> 02:34:55,280 Speaker 2: greatest four to oh preseason team of all time to 2821 02:34:55,360 --> 02:34:57,920 Speaker 2: two thousand and eight to Trey Lions. I'll scored their 2822 02:34:57,959 --> 02:35:01,320 Speaker 2: opponents eighty to thirty two. Even had t shirts printed 2823 02:35:01,400 --> 02:35:05,360 Speaker 2: up preseason champs. Gotta love Rod Marinelli. That team actually 2824 02:35:05,440 --> 02:35:09,400 Speaker 2: went owen sixteen in the regular season. Yea, that's part 2825 02:35:09,400 --> 02:35:12,080 Speaker 2: of the pre and post broadcast team. We talked about 2826 02:35:12,160 --> 02:35:14,360 Speaker 2: dan or Lofski earlier in the night. I think it 2827 02:35:14,440 --> 02:35:16,480 Speaker 2: was Week five at Minnesota. He ran out of the 2828 02:35:16,560 --> 02:35:19,959 Speaker 2: end zone. The Lions lost that game. I think it 2829 02:35:20,000 --> 02:35:23,920 Speaker 2: was twelve to ten, lost by two points. So again, 2830 02:35:24,120 --> 02:35:27,160 Speaker 2: when it comes to the NFL preseason, pay attention to 2831 02:35:27,240 --> 02:35:30,600 Speaker 2: quarterback rotations, get a hold of the information. It's all 2832 02:35:30,600 --> 02:35:35,000 Speaker 2: about information on what coaches intend to do. Truthfully, they'll 2833 02:35:35,000 --> 02:35:37,160 Speaker 2: tell you know who wants to win. You know who 2834 02:35:37,240 --> 02:35:40,960 Speaker 2: doesn't you know who's got the better quarterback rotation, especially 2835 02:35:41,480 --> 02:35:44,520 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. Just the way it is. By 2836 02:35:44,560 --> 02:35:47,440 Speaker 2: the way, play against any Hard Knocks team in their 2837 02:35:47,480 --> 02:35:50,520 Speaker 2: final preseason game of the year. They've gone thirteen to 2838 02:35:50,560 --> 02:35:54,920 Speaker 2: two against the spread the last fifteen seasons. That's just 2839 02:35:55,080 --> 02:35:58,160 Speaker 2: more food for thought. That is going to do it 2840 02:35:58,240 --> 02:36:00,760 Speaker 2: for the Bernie Frattle Show. I'll be back on these 2841 02:36:00,760 --> 02:36:06,080 Speaker 2: airwaves next Friday night, eleven pm Pacific time with our crew. 2842 02:36:06,760 --> 02:36:08,800 Speaker 2: And in the meantime, enjoy your Sunday and keep it 2843 02:36:08,840 --> 02:36:11,640 Speaker 2: locked right here.
