11
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: the head of HR. I'm trying to think of ways

12
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: I can get in trouble right away. Where should we

13
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: start with? We start with the first time that I

14
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: was like, Wow, this one's really attractive, and I looked

15
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: it up and I saw your married with kids, and

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I guess I can't hit on

17
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: my head of HR now. So that was definitely fun,

18
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: but I feel like that's a good way to ice

19
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: break it right. Yeah, although I don't think you've told

20
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: me that before, so now I I don't know all right,

21
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: We're just going to shock at all. That's how we

22
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,880

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show, Matt More. I am very

37
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: pleased to be professionally here with my head of HR

38
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: in a professional setting saying absolutely nothing that could get

39
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: me in trouble. I'm not going down in this one. Simon,

40
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 1: You're going down on your own. Live a little mad.

41
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: It's fun. Okay, nice to see Matt. All right, So

42
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: here's how the game is played today. You'll answer two

43
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 1: kinds of questions. First, traditional trivia questions about sports, sports, betting,

44
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: and the world at large. Second, completely subjective and totally

45
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: asinine open ended questions or prompts that I alone will judge.

46
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: To accumulate points. You must answer the trivia questions correctly

47
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: and also convinced me that your responses to those open

48
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,119
Speaker 1: ended prompts are better than the responses of your opponents.

49
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: So let's begin Part one, going for Gold. The opening

50
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: ceremonies of the Summer Olympics in Tokyo are tomorrow, and

51
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: already the American Olympic men's basketball team has endored a

52
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: whole season's worth of turmoil. The United States remains a

53
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 1: minusport hundred favorite to take home the gold. But for now,

54
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: let's test your knowledge on some Olympic performances from years

55
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: past with some two part questions. All right, Chris. Since

56
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: n this US team has won gold in six of

57
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: the seven Summer Games. But despite boasting this Hall of

58
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: Fame big man, back in two thousand four, America lost

59
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: in the semifinals thanks to a blistering performance from his

60
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 1: NBA teammate, this famous Argentinean with whom he'd win four

61
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: NBA titles. I'm gonna go with Tim Duncan and manage Genobli.

62
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: Yes nine, all right, and so far no HR violations either,

63
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 1: Tim Duncan. Tim Duncan not a fan of Phoba basketball,

64
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: never has been. Why is that his famous line was

65
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: Phoeba sucks after the OH four Olympics. I believe because

66
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: it's just so many rule changes in international game where

67
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: it just takes guys to play in the NBA a

68
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: long time to adapt them. That was, I believe the

69
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 1: last time we saw Tim Duncan as one of the

70
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: USA basketball team. Yeah, I was gonna say that that

71
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: was the last time the dunkn play for him, Simon.

72
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: The last time our Olympic basketball roster was entirely amateurs

73
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: was back in when America won the bronze medal. The

74
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: US switched to NBA players after that, which led to

75
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: this famous steo becoming the first to win an NBA

76
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: title and Olympic gold in the same year. Um, I'm

77
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:25,280
Speaker 1: the named two players, so I'll go Pippin and Jordan's Yeah,

78
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: thank you guys, Thank you, Simon. Although he's never won

79
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,119
Speaker 1: an NBA title, this player does have a record three

80
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: Olympic Gold medals in basketball to go along with an

81
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: NBA scoring title and an n c Double A championship

82
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 1: at Syracuse. The most overrated player in NBA history, Carmelo

83
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: Anthony greatest, greatest USA basketball player for sure, though that

84
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: could be true, his career is defined by the success

85
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: of his USA teams. That guy, I mean, I think

86
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: Durant's gonna probably beat his scoring numbers this cycle. But

87
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,719
Speaker 1: Carmelo was built for international play. If Kevin, if Tim

88
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: Duncan wasn't, Carmelo is what makes one built for international

89
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: play Over the NBA, Carmelo's defensive deficiencies are less glaring.

90
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: When you can play two positions the way he did.

91
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: You don't see as much three point bombing in international competitions.

92
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: And Carmelo is the king of the mid range game.

93
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: So there's just a lot of a lot of things

94
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: that work for Carmelo in international competitions that get exposed

95
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,119
Speaker 1: a little bit in the NBA. But he also played

96
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 1: spot up a lot. That was a big part of

97
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 1: it was he would play spot up alongside Kobe and

98
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: Lebron and Wade. In that role, he was great. When

99
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: he went to the Knicks, there was this rumor that

100
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: was gonna be Tony Parker, Melo and mar and that

101
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: would have been I think his career goes down a

102
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: lot differently if that trio had actually come together, Okay, maw.

103
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: The most indelible moment from America's gold medal Olympic effort

104
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: in two thousands came in a preliminary round game against France,

105
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: when this twenty three year old American start jumped over

106
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: step on foot to center Frederick Weiss for an epic

107
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,040
Speaker 1: jam known as le duc de la morte or the

108
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: dunk of death. In Brents, it's Vince Carter. If it's

109
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: not the best dunk of all time, it's gonna be

110
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 1: top three. Did it happen in an actual game? Yeah? Yeah.

111
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: He cleared him in game in a preliminary cleared him

112
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: in game, which was a bold choice. Had the Knicks

113
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: actually drafted Frederdvice at that point because he never had

114
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: a shot after that, Yeah, he was always gonna be

115
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: that guy. Yeah, yeah, I mean that was I think

116
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: they had already drafted him and he immediately became known

117
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: as that guy. And yeah, there was no hope form

118
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: after that. He could have been the David Robinson of

119
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 1: international games. It wouldn't have mattered. Like he's He's just

120
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: known as the guy that got dunked on by Vince Carter.

121
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: Speaking of Vince Carter math, Vince Carter would play for

122
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: eight teams in his NBA career without getting one wrong,

123
00:06:53,200 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: named Six Raptors, Magic, Sons, Hawk, New Jersey. I think

124
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: you played for Dallas. Yes, he also played for the

125
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: Grizzlies and the Kings. Here is a better question. Now

126
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: you all get to respond. In nineteen seventy two, the

127
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: ending of the gold medal basketball game between America and

128
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: the USSR was so fishy that the players unanimously agreed

129
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: to not accept their silver medals. One player wrote into

130
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: his will that his heirs were forbidden from accepting on

131
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: his behalf even after his death. If you won an

132
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: Olympic gold medal, what would happen to it after your death?

133
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: And what instructions would you leave? I would just I mean,

134
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: I feel like it's generational, you pass it down to

135
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: to a child. And the only instructions I would leave

136
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: is I don't care what scumbag great great grandchild I have.

137
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: You can't sell it, It can never ever be sold.

138
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know where my lineage will go

139
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 1: down the line, but I don't want that thing to

140
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: wind up on you know, the twenty second century version

141
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: of eBay at some point in Darren Ravel's office. So

142
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: I'm have a different mind on this. Johan has just

143
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: taught us that the past is ego, right, the past,

144
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: the past is all ego. And I would leave instructions

145
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: that if my kids wanted it, they get to have it,

146
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: but then after that it gets and if they don't

147
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: want it, or after they pass it on, it gets

148
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: sent to some sort of university or a scientific organization

149
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: and auctioned off to help people. Because I just you

150
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: can't hold onto these things. You can't be so prideful

151
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: about your accomplishments that you lose sight of moving forward.

152
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: Because that's my mindset on that. That's what's too sappy

153
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: that I'm sorry, that's what I think. I say this

154
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: as someone that like right outside this door behind me,

155
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: like has you know every cover story I've written for

156
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: Sports Illustrated, like frame that I look at every morning

157
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: so I'm not give it away anything. That's yeah, Chris,

158
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: I was like when I heard the whole speech about Yanna.

159
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: It's a nice group for thought, but I'm like, dude,

160
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: I can't tell you how often I wake up I

161
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 1: think about my past, Like every day. I'm one of

162
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: those people. It's like, how did I get where I'm

163
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: at in life? I feel like so blessed. So it's

164
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: good to review your past, but I guess, yeah, not

165
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: living in it. I'm I'm crazy about this gold medal thing.

166
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 1: I feel like I already don't trust my unborn kids.

167
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,959
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I just worry they're gonna be

168
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: a little scumbag. So I'd probably donate it to my

169
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: like old high school, so at least, like I know,

170
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: for the rest of time, people walk by, like whose

171
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: gold medal is that? Like, oh, it's Simon Hunters. It's like, Okay,

172
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: at least someone's remembering me other than my kids pointed

173
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas to go hit the craps table. I

174
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: couldn't handle that. So yeah, I definitely would donate it

175
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: to my high school. So you care about what happens

176
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 1: after you're gone, I don't. That's the differences, I don't

177
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: care about it. Also, I feel like my kid would

178
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: just be like cool and then just throw it in

179
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: a drawer. While that's that's what happened. It would be

180
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: used as a coaster for while he's playing video games. Okay,

181
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: none of you guys got this right, because there's only

182
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: one clear thing you can do, which is put it

00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,320

224
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: that's fair. I'll take the l Yeah, alright, Chris, now

225
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: that you're you figured that one out, Chris. The first

Speaker 1: NBA Finals MVP was also the only player to win

227
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,520

237
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 1: Nice work, here we go. The Bill Russell NBA Finals

238
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: Most Valuable Player Award is arguably the most appropriately named

239
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,680
Speaker 1: trophy in all of sports. If you could rename or

240
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: rededicate any award in sports, what would you choose and

241
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: what would you name it? And I'm gonna Latin Matt

242
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: answer this one first. I would like to rename the

243
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: NBA Community Assist Award the lou Williams Award for all

244
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: the work that he's done with local folks in various establishments.

245
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: As I'm not going to say what type of establishment

246
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 1: as I am on a podcast with my head of

247
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:50,599
Speaker 1: HR so that's got good chicken wings, good great chicken wings,

248
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,359
Speaker 1: just amazing chicken wings. Worth what kind of community assistance?

249
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about this award. Just he's done

250
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: a lot for young women that are trying to make

251
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: their way in the world. I'm gonna have to do

252
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 1: some Google searching later, Okay. And I thought you were

253
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: like a do gooder here. I was like, oh, we've

254
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: got a theme of like giving back. He's given back considerably,

255
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 1: all right, Chris, if you follow this track where you

256
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: look at Bill Russell as the greatest team player in

257
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: the history of sports, I would rename the NFL m

258
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 1: v P after the greatest team player in the history

259
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: of the NFL, which is Boston's own Tom Brady. So

260
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: I would uh rename the NFL MVP after a guy

261
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: that's gonna be winning that award when he's like forty seven.

262
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: So I'm going Tom Brady, all right, Simon. Is the

263
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: award like a football that's not quite fully inflated, a

264
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: little like a little flat football. Football inflated is defeated

265
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: by playing an entire season with the absent meniscus. I'm

266
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: gonna call that a more significant accomplishments. There you go.

267
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 1: I've kind of stolen mine from from Chris here. I uh,

268
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: I alway wanted them to change right now, the Super

269
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: Bowl they called the Lombardi To me, that's really what

270
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: he's known for, is all of his world championships before

271
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: the NFL's the NFL. So I feel like they should

272
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 1: rename the NFC Championship to Lombardi and then named the

273
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: Super Bowl Trophy to the Belichick. I know people love

274
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: Brady and I'm with him on the Brady hype. The

275
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: guy's seven rings, But if you go back and watch

276
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: a lot of that was Brady was great, but a

277
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: lot of the early days it's all Belichick. It was

278
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: great defense with a great kicker, with a quarterback, didn't

279
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: turn the ball over. So if I'm gonna give a

280
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: lot of their rings the credits to, I know it's

281
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: a split thing, but I give it the Belichick because

282
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: he is that coach. So to me, they should just

283
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: change the name of Super Bowl to the Belichick. It's

284
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: it's truly, that's the name of the trophy. It's a Belichick.

285
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: That guy is by far the greatest coach ever. All Right,

286
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: well this one was super easy because I went to

287
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: the great University of Michigan, as did Tom Brady. So

288
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: Chris is the clear winner. I'll take it. That's fair. Okay,

289
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: this is a really heated game. We are at a

290
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: tie a freeway die with three points each, So Matt three,

291
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: Chris three, and Simon three, So we're gonna have to

292
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to figure this out so we can

293
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 1: declare a clear winner. Moving along to Part three, our

294
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: theme is Space Jam two, which I actually have not

295
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: seen yet, but looks excellent. The Lebron James films Space Jam,

296
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: a New Legacy, The highly anticipated sequel to the nine original,

297
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: was released last week to scathing reviews. The New York Post,

298
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: for example, called it an abomination. In honor of this

299
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: dubious occasion, let's test your Space Jam knowledge, Matt. At

300
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: over ninety million dollars, the original Space Jam remains the

301
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: highest grossing basketball film of all time, just ahead of

302
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: this classic featuring Rosie Prez and also my husband's favorite movie,

303
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: White Man Can't Jump. Very balance is we go? And

304
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: see part. Sometimes when you really lose, sometimes when you lose,

305
00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: you really win, and sometimes when you want to lose,

306
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: you actually time. All right, Chris made specifically for the

307
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 1: movie Space Jam. The classic hit I Believe I Can

308
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,880
Speaker 1: Fly won the Grammy for Best Original Music for TV

309
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: or Film and was performed by this infamous R and

310
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 1: B legend. Oh God, I'm gonna screw this up. I

311
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 1: feel like this is so easy. Was it sealed? No,

312
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: but my husband said this thig last night. I thought

313
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 1: it was sealed for a second. There no no worse

314
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: bad reputation. Bobby Brown. No, I mean that's a bad

315
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: reputation too. I remember the song, I can hear it

316
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: in my head, but I don't know say R Kelly Wow,

317
00:17:47,720 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: R Kelly was around back then, Hobby Hobby spread My

318
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: Wings and yeah, that was before Trapped in the Closet.

319
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: Damn missed that, alright, simon this once for you When

320
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: it was released in almost two dozen NBA players appeared

321
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: in the original Space Yeam. Michael Jordan's was one of them.

322
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 1: Five more were some of his championship teammates with the

323
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 1: Chicago Bulls. Without getting one wrong, name two two people

324
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: in the movie or two people off the Bulls, well,

325
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: two people from the Balls that were in the movie. Okay,

326
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 1: I'll go with uh Scottie Pippen. No, Wow, already wrong.

327
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: I have no idea because I saw that movie as

328
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: a kid. I remember it was like Larry Bird and

329
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 1: Charles Barkley, but I don't remember anyone from the Bulls, Grant,

330
00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: the Big Goofy, Dude long Luke Longland, Wennington Longley and

331
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: the others recur and Oakley of course was in it.

332
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: Of course it part three. Make one change to Space

333
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: Jam two that would have instantly made it more successful.

334
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna let Matt go first, have Steph Curry

335
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: play the villain, and then absolutely it would have. It

336
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 1: would have broken every box office record as every kid

337
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 1: would see it nine hundred million times because if you

338
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: don't have if you don't like Lebron, you like Steph

339
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: Curry and they could actually root for the bad guy.

340
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 1: That would be very gritty reboot with Steph as the

341
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 1: anti hero villain. All right, Chris, I would incorporate Jordan's.

342
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 1: You know, people that like the original would be more

343
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 1: likely to see it if you know you have Jordan's

344
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: Coming to Save the Day or or some version of it.

345
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,719
Speaker 1: I think if you're gonna make a sequel to the

346
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: exact same movie, it kind of behooves you to have

347
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 1: Jordan and maybe have Bill Murray in it. You know,

348
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,919
Speaker 1: have the same cast of characters are part of it

349
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 1: that we're in the original. So I would incorporate the

350
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: original guys of that movie. I love Bell Marie. All right, Simon,

351
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: I feel bad. I'm I'm in football mode. I'm so disconnected.

352
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 1: I don't even know this movie came out until we

353
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 1: just started this show, so I haven't seen Space James too.

354
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: But since people I hate it. I guess make a

355
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: PG thirteen. I feel like you can't go wrong when

356
00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: you up a rating because there's there's jokes that older

357
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 1: people can understand. It seems like people don't understand it's

358
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: for little kids. People are like, oh, that movie is terrible.

359
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: It's like, dude, you're thirty years old. I don't know

360
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 1: if you're the demographics. So I'm gonna check it out.

361
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 1: But I'll like smoke a ja or maybe eat medric mushrooms,

362
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: saying that it's my head of hr again before I

363
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: watch this movie, because it's not for it's not for adults,

364
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: it's for little kids. So I love the first Space Jam,

365
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: so I'm assuming I'm gonna love this one. Oh. Critics

366
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:51,160
Speaker 1: are often you know, dumb in general, because like I'll

367
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: die on the hill that Armageddon is a great frigged movie,

368
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: And how many scathing reviews has Armageddon had over the years.

369
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,719
Speaker 1: I think it has like a If you look up

370
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 1: all the reviews on like Wikipedia, it's got I think

371
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: every single one of them by a critic is a

372
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: negative review. Bruce Willis want a Razzie for that that movie,

373
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: which I find astonishing. I've watched that maybe five hundred times,

374
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: and we'll probably watch it five hundred more before I die.

375
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: So and no, and you're right. The audience is not

376
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: you know, forty five year old New York Post writer

377
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: or New York Times writer or whatever it is. It's

378
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: a twelve year old that might be entertained by it.

379
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 1: Is incredible. But also my favorite scene from like almost

380
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 1: any movie where I think Luke Wilson's like going to

381
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 1: outer space and they asked him, are you excited or whatever?

382
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 1: And he's like, I'm ninety percent excited and tempers that's terrified,

383
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: or maybe I'm tem percent excited and year doesn't really

384
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: matter anymore. And I say that like all the time

385
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: about everything. See, the greatest part of that movie is

386
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: the fact that Bruce Willis is shooting a shock on

387
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: an oil rig at his girlfriend's his daughter's boyfriend. That's,

388
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: to this day on my favorite parts of that movie.

389
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: I would have give h Bruce Willis an oscar for

390
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: that movie, not a Razzie for that movie. The Russian

391
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,719
Speaker 1: dude just trying to fix it and he's like cosmonaut, Yeah, cosmonaut,

392
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 1: and he's and he's talking and he's like Russian components

393
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: American components all made in Taiwan. Great line. I like

394
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: Bill Murray and I like Armageddon and Christmins. I'll take it.

395
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: I'll congratulate myself there. So Simon is the big loser

396
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: right now. Simon is still stuck at three. If he

397
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: had gone to see Space Jam, he may have one,

398
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: but he did not see Space Jam because he's been

399
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: so busy at work. Also, before we go any further here,

400
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: I have a word from our friends at FanDuel. One

401
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,360
Speaker 1: of the things I love about betting my favorite sports

402
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: is that I'm always finding new player props or game

403
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: props that I like. That's what's cool about fando sports plicks.

404
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: You can go buying these props with other bets from

405
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: the same game to score an even bigger payout. It's

406
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 1: called a same game parlay, and you can only find

407
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 1: them on FanDuel. For example, I just went on and

408
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: looked at my Phillies. I build the same game parley

409
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: Andrew Cutching gets two or more hits and Bryce Harper

410
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: hit a home run. It pays over fourteen to one,

411
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 1: just for fun, silly bet to make for a big

412
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 1: potential payout. But same game parlay is just one of

413
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 1: the many reasons I bet with FanDuel. One of these

414
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 1: things I love about fando sports books is easy to use,

429
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,439
Speaker 1: and Simon is behind with three. So we're moving on

430
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: to our grand finale. The topic is Olympic upsets, So

431
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: close your eyes and hold up your fingers to tell

432
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 1: me how much you want to risk with your wager

433
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: about okay, great. The US Olympic men's basketball team began

434
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 1: using all NBA players in They would go undefeated in

435
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: three consecutive Olympics before suffering their first defeat. In two

436
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: thousand four, America's ill fated dream Team three got crushed

437
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: in a preliminary round game after an incredible performance by

438
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 1: Carlos Arroyo, the basketball store star of this island Commonwealth,

439
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: which is also an unincorporated territory of the United States.

440
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:43,199
Speaker 1: Call them all right, Chris, what is your answer? Uh,

441
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:49,119
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico? Nicely done? How should you wager all my points?

442
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: Put it along the line, go bigger, go home? All right, Simon?

443
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: I got Puerto Rico, but only at three points. Som

444
00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 1: only at six points, so still behind Chris. From then Matt,

445
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: I got wrong. I said the bank in Republic, which

446
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: is actually incorporated. I realized, and I'd wager one. So

447
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: I finished last with three points. Matt is in last

448
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: place with three, Simon with six in the middle, and Chris,

449
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 1: our guest, is the big winner with eight points. A

450
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 1: big win for me. That's that's the biggest accomlishment of

451
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 1: the day. I'm telling you we should absolutely name since

452
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: this is my one time gig. We should name the

453
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: Thursday Thunderdome Trophy after Chris Pannox. Obviously you just named

454
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: it after winners and that's uh, that's what I feel

455
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 1: like right now. That's where you are, all right, And

456
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 1: before we sign off, here's a word from our fearless leader,

457
