And it's honestly, this game should 32 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: be this should be the United States winning this game, 33 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: like fourteen to five, Like that's the square that I 34 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: mean the United States they have I think what thirteen 35 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: walks and and had bases loaded and judge it's into 36 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: a double play against a kid in high school. 37 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 5: Uh. 38 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying that, like, oh, I'm being a no, no, no, 39 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: the kid actually is in high school. Like this should 40 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: be a game where the United States went wins this 41 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: game by ten runs, and instead it's a three run 42 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: game in the top of the ninth inning. 43 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 4: Tonal was set in fourteen and a half nine and 44 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 4: a half run line. 45 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: There you go, you went right to the gambling again. 46 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 4: Well, I mean you went out of your way to 47 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 4: talk about all the walks that they didn't capitalize on. 48 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 4: It would only be smart of me to inform our 49 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 4: audience nationwide, globally, intergalactically of what that means if say 50 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 4: you had backed your country like you wouldn't do. 51 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 1: All I am saying is that Aaron Judge hit into 52 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: a double play against a kid who is a high 53 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: school you're saying, That's what I'm saying. 54 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 4: Man, he did some social status homework earlier. 55 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: Today, I was not rooting for Aaron Judge to hit 56 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: into a double play with the bases loaded against a 57 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: kid in high school. But when the best player in baseball, 58 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 1: coming off a big error in the World Series a 59 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, hits into a double play against 60 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: a kid in high school, we have to talk about it. 61 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: It's something that happened. 62 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, he did his social studies homework earlier. He had 63 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 4: math on Thursday, so he's getting it done. 64 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: You know what else, You're not an athlete. You know 65 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: what else you're not gonna see in the in the 66 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: ninth inning of this game, who's that Clayton Kershaw? Because 67 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: it's too close? How's that? Frostburg? How's that? How's that? 68 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: How do you like that? Apples? 69 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 3: Anti America? It's literally like in the words of the dude. 70 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 3: This aggression will not stand man. 71 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: Just your homework, Frostburg, Just your homework, Frostburg. 72 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 3: Show on American Radio. 73 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: Jason, This is your homework, Frostburg. Is your homework, Frostburg. Yes, 74 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to Brazil radio after this. Yes, me be 75 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: talking about the topless beaches, the killer spiders. Uh, the 76 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: Olympics in Rio a few years ago. Fine, you just. 77 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 4: Spoiled the forty five. I had all worked up. 78 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: Sorry, what topless beaches. 79 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 4: And spiders was gonna have interesting factors about Brazil? 80 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: Okay, all right? Uh so again, United States leading Brazil 81 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: eight five, top of the ninth inning. But the big 82 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: story this broke about twenty minutes before we came on 83 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: the air tonight. Max Crosby has been traded. This week 84 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: long drama with the Raiders is now at an end. 85 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: The Baltimore Ravens get Max Crosby in exchange for a 86 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: first round pick this year end next year. And this 87 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: is we talked about it last hour. An incredible win 88 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: for the Ravens. You go out and get an all 89 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: Pro player like Max Crosby that has another three or 90 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: four years of peak football left in him. He is 91 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: a plug and play guy, his motor, his desire. This 92 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: is not someone that gets paid or gets paid money 93 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: and says, yeah, I'm mailing it in. He's not made 94 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: that way. There are very few players you can make 95 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: a trade for and give a lot of money to 96 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: and not have a lot of questions. And this is it. 97 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: I can't believe the Raiders couldn't get more I made. 98 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: Maybe Tom Brady's got a you know, I don't know 99 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: what he's doing. I mean, I know, you know, he's 100 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: living in Florida, he's running the Raiders, broadcasting all these 101 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: different things, flag football, you know, talking saw all this 102 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: different stuff. Maybe he wants to fight Jake Paul. I 103 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 1: don't know. But man, you gotta get more for Max 104 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: Crosby than that. I mean, really, the Jets got more 105 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: for Sauce Gardner. Just think about that, right, I mean 106 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: you see some of the other players what they were 107 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: going for, Like Max Crosby is a Micah Parsons type 108 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: situation where this is where you absolutely load up and 109 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 1: and and get and get more for and two first 110 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: round picks. I mean, it's it's it's a it's a 111 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: hefty price, but you gotta push this you. You could 112 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: have got another first round pick, maybe a second and 113 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: a third, or a player. You could have got more 114 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: from that. I mean, I'm not saying he had to 115 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: keep him because it was untenable. Max Crosby wanted out. 116 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm not saying the Raiders had to hold on to 117 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: him because when a guy wants out, guy wants out 118 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: and there's a big market for him. But there should 119 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: have been more. I mean, really, I mean, you should 120 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: have gotten more for a guy that's this productive, that 121 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: is this good, that averages ten sacks a year and 122 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: was on paced. If you know, until he got hurt 123 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: last year, he might have had his best season sack 124 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: wise overall. So I mean, this is the guy. If 125 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: you're saying in the off season we try to focus 126 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: on players to go get who do you want to try? 127 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: You go get the all pros? Man Less Sneed had 128 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: it right when he said it the other day. First thing, 129 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: are there any all pros we can go get? They 130 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: went out and got Trent McDuffie. Hey what all pros 131 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: can we go get? The Ravens said, let's go get 132 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: Max Crosby. They have already won the off season with 133 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: what they did tonight. 134 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I look at this trade, and you know, we 135 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 4: long used the analogy of distressed properties right through whatever 136 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 4: convergence of circumstance in your neighborhood. All of a sudden, 137 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 4: the house comes up for sets. Like I thought everything 138 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 4: was going great. You have no idea what's going on 139 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 4: behind closed doors? Right, family strife, the job market being 140 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 4: what it is, all those things. Suddenly someone needs to 141 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 4: get out of that property. Job change, right, I need 142 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 4: to leave the state, the city, whatever. In this case, 143 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 4: you might have a distressed property and we know that 144 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 4: Max Crosby has a bunch of issues with the team. 145 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 4: And decide on your giant pie chart how big they were. 146 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 4: The operation shut down at the end of last year, 147 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 4: the stuff with Guerrero and the trainer, just overall organizational 148 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 4: instability and direction, which he's been part of for several years, 149 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 4: several coaching changes and coordinators and regimes and everything else 150 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 4: or whatever you want to ascribe it to. It was 151 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 4: an untenable situation to where he decided he was done 152 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 4: and they weren't crossing that crossing back that that chasm, 153 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 4: and so you decide you're gonna get rid of them. 154 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: That's fine. 155 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 4: You are not under the gun to do so today 156 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 4: or tomorrow, or until Fernando Mendoza is gonna walk up 157 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 4: and announce the second pick. Hey, we trained it for 158 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 4: this pick, and here I am. I'm back to announce it. 159 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 4: It's the You had plenty of time to let this marinate, 160 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 4: unless you're just deciding that, all right, we're absolutely done. 161 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 4: We're gonna take what the market offers us and be 162 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 4: done with it. It seems to me you'd have enough 163 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 4: contenders trying to outdo each other, and that's fine if 164 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 4: you don't want to consider the Cowboys a contender or 165 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 4: some of these other teams that were coming to the 166 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,239 Speaker 4: table that you didn't like it to some degree, maybe 167 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 4: you did Max Crosby a solid by sending him to 168 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 4: a contender. All right, all right, we're gonna you know, 169 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 4: we hampered your career for long enough, We're gonna get 170 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 4: our two picks and you get to go play meaningful football. 171 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 4: Good luck, go terrorize Joe Burrow and the members of 172 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 4: the AFC North. But for the Raiders, as you're trying 173 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 4: to reconstruct this thing, you got a lot of cap space. 174 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 4: Right what they did with Gino and all the other 175 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 4: moves that they're making. We're talking one hundred million dollars 176 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 4: to go spend plus the number one overall pick. That yeah, 177 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 4: you want to go and you want to maximize. This 178 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 4: just seems to me the thing I'm holding out for. 179 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 4: I don't want a third draft pick like that. That 180 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: means I gotta hit on all of them, not a 181 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 4: be two great draft picks and one legitimate I can 182 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 4: plug this guy in because guess what, you got a 183 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 4: lot of x'es up on the board right now or 184 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 4: question marks that are waiting to fill in with a 185 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 4: guy's face on your depth chart. Here was an opportunity, 186 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 4: whether it be the Ravens or somebody else, to solidify 187 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 4: one of those spaces. 188 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: Well here. But here's the thing though, Remember with the 189 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: draft picks, it not that you have to use them all. 190 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: If you could have got like another second and a third, 191 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: well that helps you get somebody else from another team 192 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: like that. That's you know, it's it's not like the 193 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: NBA where hey, first round picks, we just give him 194 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: out like candy. But you know, hey, okay, we can 195 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: we can now give you a second and a third. 196 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: So now suddenly that trade turns into two first round 197 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: picks and a number one receiver or a uh you know, 198 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: or or a middle linebacker or whatever whatever you feel 199 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: you need because we can go get this guy now 200 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 1: because we have these extra trade uh draft picks. 201 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 4: For Yeah, it's it's just interesting that you know, I'm 202 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:49,080 Speaker 4: not a the you know, the draft compensation. Then I'll 203 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 4: leave that to Jimmy Johnson's chart of all all those 204 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 4: years ago and trying to figure out, you know, how 205 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 4: it grades and valuations and whatever else. Boy, as we 206 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 4: look at the board when you're trying to find impact, 207 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 4: you mentioned the Rams trade like, and the free agent 208 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 4: class is deep. There's guys everywhere. Are they all difference makers? No, 209 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 4: there's there's very few of them, particularly at this position. 210 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 4: And for Max Crosby what we've looked at for these 211 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 4: years of domination, when they're generally they're behind, it's like, wait, 212 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 4: if he actually gets to pin his ears back when 213 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 4: they've got a lead. 214 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: I haven't had a lead since twenty twenty one. That's 215 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,199 Speaker 1: the last time in the playoffs. Now. It's funny because 216 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: you mentioned the other person that was involved in We 217 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 1: thought the big Raider headline today was that they were 218 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: gonna let Geno Smith go. Right when next week when 219 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: it's official, Uh, they are saying goodbye to both Max 220 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: Crosby and Geno Smith. Only one player. Raider fans will 221 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: be really upset. 222 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 4: Only one of those Jets. 223 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you this about Geno Smith. Okay, this pick, 224 00:10:54,679 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: he sucks, right if somebody signs him to be their 225 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: starting quarterback for next season. Okay, and there's our rumors 226 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: the Jets could be The Jets are gonna apparently get everybody. 227 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna get Geno Smith. We're gonna have Derek Carr, 228 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna get too, well, we're gonna have all these guys. Right, 229 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: They're gonna get everybody whoever signs Geno Smith to be 230 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: their starting quarterback next year. You know they are all 231 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: in on tanking for next season because that's what it is, 232 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: because g Geno Smith is the easy guy that you 233 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 1: can sign where your team can defend it by putting 234 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: their arms out wide saying, well, you know, Geno Smith's 235 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: been an okay start in the league for a while. Now, 236 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: we're looking for a bridge guy. Now, clearly, you can't 237 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 1: expect us to go crazy for a quarterback this year. 238 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: It's gotta be somebody developmental wise, of course we're going out. 239 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: Geno Smith is gonna commit and solidify the position for us. Meanwhile, 240 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: knowing full well, he's gonna come in and throw interception 241 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: after interception and the team is gonna stink because Gino 242 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 1: thirty five years old and he really has had one 243 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: good year, one really good year is a quarterback in 244 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: the NFL. You know, whoever signs Geno Smith is all 245 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: in on tanking for twenty twenty seven because they go, well, 246 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna have Geno Smith, So okay, we're gonna go 247 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 1: three and fourteen. Hopefully that's enough to pick number one, 248 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 1: to get Arch Manning or number two and get Dante 249 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: more or whoever else. If you go get Gino Smith 250 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 1: number one, you know that team is in for the time. 251 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Jets. It look good. 252 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 4: I could must out all those twenty thirteen rookie cards 253 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 4: once again.

Geno Smith is going to be cut 311 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: by the rate. Of course, every quarterback is on the 312 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: Jets list. But I had to see today Frank Reich say, 313 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: you know, she reports that, you know Frank Wright, new 314 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: Jets offensive courter, who of course was out of football 315 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: last year, say that me. He was not. 316 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 5: He was not out of football last year. He was not. 317 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 5: He was the coach of the Stanford Cardinals. 318 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: He was out of the NFL. Sorry, he was out 319 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: of here, thank you, out of the NFL. I was 320 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: I was gonna say something funny. Of course, he's out 321 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: of football. He's the coach of Stanford. But I want 322 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: to be nice to you. 323 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 5: You missed the opportunity. You should have gone for the juggler, 324 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 5: because I did with Gino Smith. That you're going to 325 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 5: be buying another Geno Smith jersey because I wear it 326 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 5: on Saturday. There we go, No, no, no, no, Gan. 327 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: First of all, we're getting well, First of all, we're 328 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: getting Derek Carr. And if we're not getting Derek Carr, 329 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: we're getting Tua. And if we're not getting Tua, hey, 330 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: guess what. According to reports today, Frank Reich might want 331 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz to run his system because he knows it 332 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: so well, which means we're fully tanking in twenty twenty seven. 333 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: So I'm actually okay with that. But I could have 334 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 1: to watch Carson Wentz play quarterbacks. 335 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 5: Last year? 336 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, and it got how many straight? 337 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 5: How many straight years do you have? Like this is 338 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 5: the whole point of why you don't trade your good players, 339 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 5: which is now we get to the Max Crosby part 340 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 5: of this, Like you can rebuild the team fairly quickly 341 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 5: in the NFL. You don't have to suck every year. 342 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 5: Now that Jets and you're run by Woody Johnson. 343 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there's no lies there. 344 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 5: You know, Gina, Geno, Gene. 345 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: Can you imagine when we have a three way quarterback 346 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: competition next year between Wentz and Geno and how great 347 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:03,479 Speaker 1: is that going to be? 348 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 5: Let's talk about Max Krosby. The first time I've ever 349 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 5: wanted to talked about something serious. I can't. I can't, 350 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 5: I can't, I can't. I can't talk about I can't 351 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 5: talk about the Jets in their quarterback situation. That's that's 352 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 5: too vulgar. 353 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: So okay, Ja Cole am I the only one you 354 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 1: know we're talking about this. I would have given up 355 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: more for Max Crosby than two first round picks like 356 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: this guy is the the ultimate plug and play. You 357 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: got him for three or four more great years like this. 358 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: He's an absolute terror and a lunatic in the best 359 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: way possible. 360 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm surprised the prices. It is cheap. I really am. 361 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 5: Olympics are decent, you know, for this year. I would 362 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 5: have thought you could have gotten to you could have 363 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 5: gotten one more thing out of that of like I said, 364 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 5: und pick or a second round pick. You could have 365 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 5: waited it out a little bit longer. I don't know 366 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 5: what the rush is for the for the Raiders and 367 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 5: the other side is. And I said this, you know, 368 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 5: in response to the story that Mike Silver wrote this 369 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 5: week about Alex Guero and for the lack of leadership 370 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 5: within the Raiders organization and what's going on. I think 371 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 5: somebody needs to have a heart heart talk with Tom 372 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 5: Brady and say, look, if you really want to turn 373 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 5: this organization around it and run and run it, you 374 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 5: have to be there. Well. I like Tom a lot, 375 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 5: and you know, obviously a great football mind and all 376 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 5: these other things, but either you're the owner or you're not. 377 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 5: Either you're involved in changing this or you're not. Because 378 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 5: the one thing that is important about ownership is that 379 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,239 Speaker 5: you're there in the building on a regular basis and 380 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 5: that people understand that this is important to you and 381 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 5: that you're forcing them to, you know, to like be 382 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 5: at the top of their game all the time when 383 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 5: they're working. And what's happened is, you know, Mark Davis 384 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 5: is you know, I mean, look, Mark Davis is a 385 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 5: clown and you know cares more about the Aces at 386 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 5: this point because they don't embarrass him on a regular 387 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 5: bas It's like the Raiders do but you know, Mark 388 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 5: Davis doesn't know what he's doing. He doesn't know how 389 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 5: to hold people accountable. He just screams at the coach 390 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 5: all the time because he thinks that that's the way 391 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 5: the best way to do business. He doesn't understand what 392 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 5: it takes to actually be good in football. So like 393 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 5: you got to start all over from the top to 394 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 5: try and fix this thing. And that's what Tom presumably 395 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 5: wanted to do when he got involved in this. But 396 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 5: he's off doing all these other things, like you know 397 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 5: this game that was supposed to be in Saudi Arabia 398 00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 5: that that was actually getting moved into the whole TV career, 399 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 5: and all the other things that Tom is doing. You know, 400 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 5: he's on social media more than more than ever, Like 401 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 5: go up and run the team. 402 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 4: On the other side, we get the the ravens Lamar 403 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 4: Jackson in that next phase of his career. Still need 404 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 4: some offensive help. They'll need to replace the center. But 405 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 4: defensively that was the big missing component all season long. 406 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 4: I mean, where do you put him in the Panthe 407 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 4: end of the AFC now and is Joe Burrow looking 408 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 4: for greener pastures to get out of the AFC North? 409 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 5: It was just a matter of time before Joe Burrow 410 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 5: realized he's, oh, yeah, I'm in Cincinnati. Oh yeah, this 411 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 5: is bad. Yeah, this is not good. I want to win. 412 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 5: Like maybe I could go to the Jets that might 413 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 5: actually be better. 414 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 4: I don't know, best joke you've ever told. I don't 415 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 4: know that. 416 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 5: I don't know, as I I wasn't really being serious 417 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 5: in case you didn't realize that. But I am serious 418 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 5: about Joe Burrow realizing Oh yeah, Mike Brown, yeah that's 419 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 5: not gonna work. I'll say, yeah, Look, I think Max 420 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 5: Crosby is a really great first step and obviously improves 421 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 5: their pass rush significantly. And they and they got over 422 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 5: this idea that you can, oh, we're just going to 423 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 5: have like five really good pass rushers and then Bloks 424 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 5: a lot and use you know, you know, Kyle Hamilton 425 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 5: a lot and all these other things to fake it 426 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 5: so that we don't have to have a guy whose 427 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 5: tours to drink. Now, you generally have to have a 428 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 5: guy who tos to drink. You have to have a 429 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 5: guy who's really great at it, and you're really better 430 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 5: off if you have two of them. And I don't 431 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 5: think that the Ravens yet have the other guy that 432 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 5: they got to get. Crosby's a great first move. Give 433 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 5: them a lot credit for that. I think they need 434 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 5: to get another guy, either intoior guy or guy and side, 435 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 5: who can be a complimentary piece. He doesn't have to 436 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 5: be a guy who gets fifteen sacks this season, but 437 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 5: this guy gets some. He's a guy freeates opportunities for 438 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 5: other people. Probably get somewhere in the area of you know, eight, nine, ten. 439 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 5: So I don't think that they're quite done with what 440 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 5: they're trying to do, but at least they broke out 441 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 5: of that idea of trying to fake it until you 442 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 5: make it, Yeah, by getting Crosby. So that's our first 443 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 5: really good move. Ester lamar Man like he just wasn't 444 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 5: right after September, and like we all know that the 445 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 5: wheels eventually come off when you're running quarterback. I want 446 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 5: to see him healthy again. I want to see him. 447 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 5: He's got to be able to run to set up 448 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 5: all the other things that he wants to do. 449 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 6: Now. 450 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 5: He doesn't have to be a guy who runs fell 451 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 5: times a game, but he has to be when he 452 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 5: picks his spots to run, he has to be really 453 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 5: affected because the defense had to account for it so 454 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,959 Speaker 5: that you can open up some other chances. I mean, 455 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 5: I give Lamar Jackson an incredible amount of credit for 456 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 5: what he's done in his career to make himself a 457 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 5: much better passer than I ever thought he was going 458 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 5: to become. You know, he really really worked hard in 459 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 5: his craft, but still there is a fundamental part of 460 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 5: his game that is dependent upon his legs setting up 461 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 5: his ability to throw. 462 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: You weren't kidding sudden, You're like I wanted just as 463 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: serious you've ever been with us that when we're not, okay, 464 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: most serious. You weren't. Even this series we talked about 465 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: not voting for Belichick for the Hall of Fame. 466 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 7: You still had more time. 467 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 5: I didn't vote Belichick. Don't do that to me. I 468 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 5: voted for Belichick. 469 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean the colloquial you. I mean you 470 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame didn't vote for Belichick. 471 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 5: Jack Other people didn' vote. 472 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: He can't speak for Tony dungeye leave him alone. 473 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 7: For him. 474 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 5: I voted for him, and I voted for his girlfriend 475 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 5: to make the Hall of Fame too. Yes, there you go. 476 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: I had I had all kinds of Belichicks and Hudson's 477 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: all down. 478 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 5: My les. Yeah, Belichick, his daughter who's a lacrosse coach. 479 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 5: She's in the Hall of Fame too. I voted for 480 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 5: every Belichick he could possibly find him. His ex wife, Debbie. 481 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 5: I don't even think she called himself Belichick anymore. She 482 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 5: goes in like that. 483 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 2: All of them nice. 484 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: But still, despite your efforts, you couldn't get Bill Belichick 485 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: into the Hall of Fame. Other players with lesser careers 486 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 1: you put in right away. Hey, let let's let's back 487 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: it up to let other guys in. Sure, Let's let 488 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: Terrell Davison, the guy at two and a half great seasons, 489 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: let's put him in the Hall of Fame. 490 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 5: That's fine, thanks, thanks. Tarrell Davis does not have two 491 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 5: and a half great seasons. He had four threeasons. He 492 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 5: had three great seasons and one very good season. And 493 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 5: and look at the postseason. The man had twelve hundred 494 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 5: and fifty yards in eight postseason games. So let's not 495 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 5: go there with Trell Davis.

I don't think anybody else. 668 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,319 Speaker 1: We can you know what we can look it up. 669 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 4: Zach Dysert. Yeah, Charlie Batch, he had a good runs. 670 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: He said famous, you said famous. 671 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 4: Charlie Batch was in the NFL forever. 672 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,240 Speaker 1: He's a good man. People still think he's a backup quarterback. 673 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: They still couldn't get back up. Isn't he the backup 674 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh to Rogers? 675 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 3: Yeah? 676 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, Charlie Batch still the backup. Uh. But Miami 677 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: of Ohio goes to thirty one and oh it takes 678 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: them over time to beat Ohio one ten, one oh eight, 679 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 1: but they keep the magic season alive. And there's been 680 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 1: so much attention on him this week after Bruce Pearl said, oh, 681 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: I can't take Miami of Ohio for the NCA Tournament 682 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: unless they win the MAC even though they're thirty one 683 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: and oh ranked in the top twenty. And this debate 684 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: has gotten bigger than I thought it would, simply because 685 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, up until a few days ago, I'm like, 686 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: wait a minute, everybody loves the mid majors. They all 687 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 1: love the mid major teams and think they're awesome, and 688 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 1: think the mid major teams are great, and we gotta 689 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 1: let more mid major teams in Miami. Is why you 690 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 1: need to expand the NCAA tournament. And I know a 691 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 1: lot of people go, what do you mean, expelled? Why 692 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: do have to expand the NA tournament? Because the last 693 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 1: fifteen years since Butler went to back to back nca 694 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: championship games, all of a sudden, it's been well, boy, 695 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,919 Speaker 1: we get fun mid major teams that maybe pull one 696 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: top twenty five upset and win the rest of their games. Oh, 697 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 1: we gotta let him in the NA tournament. The love 698 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: for mid major tournaments has gotten so far and so 699 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: big that now, how many teams are we seeing left out? 700 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: That are the big power five conference teams where you go, boy, hey, 701 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: you won twenty games in the ACC, or you won 702 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: twenty games in the Big Ten, and you don't even 703 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 1: sniff the NA turn you're not even one of the 704 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,879 Speaker 1: first four out. Yeah, because they take too many mid 705 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: major teams. I'm not saying don't take Miami Ohio. This 706 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: is a team that whatever you want to look at 707 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: their record and they haven't played one top twenty five 708 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: team all year. But it doesn't matter. Thirty and oh 709 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 1: is thirty and oh right, okay, thirty one and oh 710 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: is thirty one? I understand that I'm not saying don't 711 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 1: take them, but if you take Miami of Ohio, okay, 712 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: you have to make sure you're taking all the Power 713 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 1: Conference teams because Miami is not playing the schedule that 714 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: everybody else is. How many games would the Miami win 715 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: if they were in the Big ten woul they even 716 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: be five hundred and they're not sniffing the NCAA tournament. 717 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,720 Speaker 1: So it's it's kind of like if Major League Baseball decided, well, 718 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,359 Speaker 1: when we have our big playoffs, it's gonna be all 719 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: the big MLB winners and we're gonna take the best 720 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: teams in triple A. Wait, why are we doing that? 721 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: They didn't play against the competition that the Major League Baha, 722 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 1: Now you see what I'm saying. They didn't play. They 723 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 1: don't play all year the MAC against what the Power 724 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,280 Speaker 1: Conferences do. They don't have the they're not as good, 725 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: and we're rewarding them because we see them. They win 726 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: a couple of games and then they have a great 727 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 1: record and all of a sudden we get blinded by 728 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: their wins. If you're gonna do this right, and I 729 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: think Miami will, how I want to see them in 730 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: and see how they are right. This is a great, 731 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: great storyline from March. This is why you expand the 732 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: tournament because you got to let more of those Power 733 00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 1: Conference teams in. 734 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean the Grand scared, Well, don't you have 735 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,920 Speaker 4: enough spaces? I mean, in reality, you got enough spaces 736 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 4: that you can fit them in. Without saying we got 737 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 4: to expand. I mean, you know, we get into this 738 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 4: time of year and it's always the who feels snubbed. Right, 739 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 4: we had to have that third top ten win by UCLA, 740 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 4: the dominance on their home court, continuing to say, okay, 741 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 4: now they're in, now they're It's like, no, they were 742 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,919 Speaker 4: at nineteen wins and they were pretty good. Obviously one 743 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 4: disastrous game that was seen around the world with throwing 744 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 4: your own player out and everything. But for this, I 745 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 4: forget that the ad. I forget how many schools said 746 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 4: they tried to schedule that told them to beat it. Now, 747 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 4: what's real? What's imagining there? I don't know unless we 748 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 4: get a giant, well bound list of emails of here's 749 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 4: all the ads that told me to pound say and 750 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 4: when we tried to schedule. I just have to take 751 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 4: them at their word, but I'd want to see what 752 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 4: they can do. You know, the scheduling is what it is, 753 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,239 Speaker 4: and sometimes you get lucky. You know, even in those 754 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 4: big conferences, sometimes you avoid the top two or three schools. 755 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 4: Are you playing better competition, yes, But do you necessarily 756 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 4: always play the best? 757 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: No. 758 00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 4: I mean there's years in the Big Ten that you 759 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 4: avoid the the big heavyweights in the conference. So yeah, 760 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 4: let's let's see how they fare out and if they 761 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 4: go out and get boat raised well asked and answered. 762 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'm okay with that. I mean, I want 763 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 1: to say they they have earned the right to go 764 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: out there and prove this is how good we are, 765 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: but at at but at the at the expense of 766 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:34,440 Speaker 1: these other teams that are now because now these conferences 767 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: are so big, and it's how do we how do 768 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 1: we how do we let these twenty win teams not 769 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,319 Speaker 1: get in? I mean really, it's it's a really difficult thing. 770 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: And I know it's hard to say expand the nca tournament, 771 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: but I kind of want to see those teams get in. 772 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 1: I kind of see if you can go five five 773 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: hundred or more in conference and you win twenty games, 774 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: you could get into the NCAA Tournament. I kinda think 775 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 1: UCLA deserves to get in the NCAA Tournament after the 776 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 1: season they've put out there, So I mean, I I 777 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 1: just think that's why you have to do it. Fascinating, 778 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: absolutely fascinating exit out about a Fresca exit swollen dome. 779 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 1: The Jason Smith Show.
