29
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.

30
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 5: And speaking of women, we're gonna start with the ladies today.

31
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 5: And what was the last time we'd ever did this

32
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 5: on a sports talk radio show, I mean, nationwide, I'm

33
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 5: not so certain there were five stations, five shows that

34
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 5: start this show with women's basketball, all right, And honestly,

35
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 5: I watched that Women's All Star Game last night. I'm

36
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 5: telling you right now, but honestly, they're passing the men.

37
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 5: It's a better game than the men. They're playing defense

38
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 5: and both ends of the courts. They're playing both both sides, offense, defense.

39
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 5: Forty eight minutes. They're doing it all. They really are.

40
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 5: It was an enjoyable game to watch, and obviously the

41
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,320
Speaker 5: Olympic team lost to the All Stars, which is a

42
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 5: great game. I mean, I don't think I ever have

43
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 5: watched the WNBA All Star Game beforehand, but I think

44
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 5: with the Angel reaches of the world, the Caitlyn Clarks,

45
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 5: I tuned in and it was great and it was

46
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 5: like something like sixteen thousand people there.

47
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: I'm sure you watched it as well.

48
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, great, it was fantastic for it to be kind

49
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 6: of the spectacle and actually to see everything around the

50
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 6: WNBA All Star Game, there's a lot of interest. I

51
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 6: feel like the women are running with the baton and

52
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 6: the increased attention and exposure that they've been given, and

53
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 6: I think this has been great for the game. And

54
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,119
Speaker 6: then the fact that they were able to knock off

55
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 6: Team USA that certainly, uh may change a little bit

56
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 6: of a narrative around the league, but it does bring

57
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 6: some questions and some horror conversations that we'll have to

58
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 6: have about Teams USA, no.

59
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: Doubt about that.

60
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 5: Okay, I want to go back to Friday night because

61
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 5: I had the three point Contest all right, and I

62
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 5: think not to have Caitlin Clark and for the New

63
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 5: York Liberty, Sabrina and Escu not performing in the three

64
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 5: point thing, it is kind of like almost like Lebron

65
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 5: James not performing in the Dunk Contest in the WA

66
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 5: NBA or the NBA All Star Weekend. You have to

67
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 5: have these people there. And when they asked Caitlin Clark,

68
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 5: she really did not say why she didn't perform in it.

69
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 5: She kind of backed up, but I think on Escuba said, well,

70
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 5: she's just coming off the college game, and she's tired.

71
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 5: She needs a day off. That's not true, you know,

72
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 5: and I know why she didn't play. I believe she

73
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 5: didn't play. A She's tired of the ridicule, she's tired

74
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 5: of people picking on her, and b she didn't want

75
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 5: it all to be about her, because you know, if

76
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 5: she was in the three point deal, the whole thing

77
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 5: would be about her. I think she's tired of it.

78
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,799
Speaker 5: She needs a mental rest. One day is not going

79
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 5: to get it done. And I think that the fact

80
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 5: that she backed out of that three point deal tells

81
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 5: everybody and anybody you could read through the lines there

82
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 5: that she is tired of people just hounding her, picking

83
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 5: on her and creating story. I read a story yesterday

84
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 5: about one of the trainers saying that she's hated. I mean, look,

85
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 5: that's not unusual. You played the game, you were in

86
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 5: the NFL. You know there are players that I hated.

87
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 5: Why because they're good? This envy, this jealousy, that's why

88
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 5: players I hated. Lebron James is probably hated not only

89
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 5: by fans because he's the villain, but he's probably hated

90
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 5: by other players. That's just the way they that's the

91
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 5: way it is. It's always been that way, it always

92
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 5: will be that way. You know that, Buck. It's true

93
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,520
Speaker 5: players I hated. There are haters out there.

94
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, there are haters.

95
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 6: I think she talked about just being tired, you know,

96
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 6: just kind of being tired everyone to take a step back. Now,

97
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 6: when you're tired and you want to take a step back,

98
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 6: you probably ask out of all of the activities of

99
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 6: All Star Weekend, but she participated. But I do believe

100
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 6: there is something to the fatigue factor. She has been

101
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 6: NonStop on the move man for like four plus seasons

102
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 6: plus now jumping right into the NBA w NBA thing.

103
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 6: It's a lot and I think for her taking a

104
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 6: step back, taking some time off as much needed. But

105
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 6: I will say this when it comes to her, I

106
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 6: feel like the buzz around her game has been positive

107
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 6: because what has happened is those early weeks when she

108
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 6: was struggling and getting knocked around in those things. We

109
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,799
Speaker 6: have and talked about that as much because she's become

110
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 6: the consummate playmaker. You think about what she's been doing

111
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 6: with her assists, nineteen assists one night she had ten

112
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 6: assists in the All Star Game. She has figured it

113
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 6: out and unlocked a different part of her game, and

114
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 6: so I think there's maybe a growing appreciation for how

115
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 6: the young star is now beginning to show some of

116
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 6: the things that she showed in Iowa, even though her

117
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 6: game is different. You know, she's playing a different type

118
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 6: game now that she's played at IWA, because she has

119
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 6: become more the distributor than the finisher like she was

120
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 6: with the Hawk Eys.

121
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,239
Speaker 5: You make a great point because the college season endings

122
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 5: what March, late March, mid March, whatever it may be,

123
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 5: and a month later the WNBA season starts. As far

124
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 5: as the medic concern, they finished in March, but the

125
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 5: NBA doesn't start until late September's training camp. So there

126
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 5: you go, right there now being a playmaker.

127
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 2: You're correct.

128
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 5: Last night in the Old Star game, she did have

129
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 5: tennis assists. One assist shy of the Old Star record

130
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 5: of Sue Bert. And she's such a she knows what

131
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 5: to say. Okay, someone asked her about, Hey, you know

132
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 5: you had one more for the records.

133
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 2: Who's record?

134
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 3: She's not.

135
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 5: I won't take that from her. She's my homie. I mean,

136
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 5: she knows what to say. She's doing it the right way.

137
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 5: She's not attacking people. She may be under her breath

138
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 5: feeling like she'd like to attack some of the people

139
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 5: that have attacked her, but she's staying above board.

140
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: She's doing it the right way.

141
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 5: And leaven last night when she handed off to Angel

142
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 5: Reese who was her teammate, and gave her an assist.

143
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 2: It's working out well.

144
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 5: I think that people in the league right now are

145
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 5: beginning to gel and understand that, Yeah, she is helping us.

146
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 5: She is making this league relevant. She really is. And look,

147
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 5: people are coming to see her play. If you look

148
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 5: at the attendance figures around the WNBA, you know when

149
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 5: the Indiana fever travels around the league, it's them and

150
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 5: her that are bringing the crowds in, no one else.

151
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: That's basically it.

152
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 5: I didn't know who else was doing that three point

153
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 5: deal because she was knitted on Esco was knitted So

154
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 5: I really Thant wrote that familiar with the other performers

155
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 5: in that three point deal.

156
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: You got to have the stars playing. That's basically what

157
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 2: it's all about.

158
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 6: I mean, in the perfect world, what you would be

159
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 6: labeled in Andy is a casual right. That's what the WNBA,

160
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 6: the NBA. The young people that around basketball will call

161
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 6: you because you casually pop in and pop out, and

162
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 6: so you want to see the stars because that's what

163
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 6: brings you to the game. But for others, the hardcore

164
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 6: fans are saying no, like like put the heart core

165
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 6: ladies in there.

166
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 8: They should figure it out.

167
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 6: They'll know what I will say when you talk about like,

168
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 6: there's no doubt there. There's been a lot of exposure

169
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 6: to the WNBA in those things.

170
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 8: Kaitlin Clark has been a great contributor to that.

171
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 6: But I also will say Andrew Rees, Cameron Brinks, some

172
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 6: of the young crew have played a huge role in

173
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 6: bringing more people to the game. When you look at

174
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 6: what they're doing now in the WNBA in comparison to

175
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 6: what they used to do years ago, they're now copying

176
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 6: some of the things that the NBA is doing in terms.

177
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 8: Of, hey, showing the ladies.

178
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 6: Arriving to the game and the ladies in their fits

179
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 6: before the game. So what they're doing is humanizing the

180
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 6: faces in the jerseys. You're now getting the greater sense

181
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 6: of their personalities outside of.

182
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 8: The game away from the court.

183
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 6: You're seeing Angel Reese wear outfits, You're seeing some of

184
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 6: these other ladies wear their outfits, and so it's become

185
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 6: a more expressive thing.

186
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 8: And as humans, we.

187
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 6: Connect the more that we know about people, because it's

188
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 6: about relationships and relatability.

189
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 8: And so the.

190
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 6: League has done a really good job of kind of

191
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 6: opening things up, allowing these ladies to show more themselves.

192
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,679
Speaker 6: And because of that, I think it has been a

193
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 6: mutually beneficial relationship with the fans and the new fans

194
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 6: that are coming to the game.

195
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: No doubt about that.

196
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 5: And let's talk about money, because everything revolves around money.

197
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 5: It's all about the gelt, It's all about the green cabage.

198
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 3: You know that.

199
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 5: I know that everybody knows that. Why do I bring

200
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 5: up money? Flipcus the WNBA and that was going to

201
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,599
Speaker 5: get about two hundred million bucks a year part of

202
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 5: this new NBA recently approved media rights deal. NBA kind

203
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 5: of hold up a media rights deal eleven years, seventy

204
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 5: six million dollars, all right, you know, two hundred million

205
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 5: a year is not bad, all right, And it's an

206
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 5: increase of about one hundred and forty million for the WNBA.

207
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: However, you know someone's not happy.

208
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 5: The executive director of the WNBA Players Union Terry Jackson said,

209
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,119
Speaker 5: this came out just the other day that the WNBA

210
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 5: is being undervalued at two point two billion with a

211
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 5: b over eleven years. And again, remember one thing, that

212
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 5: the WNBA is being kept afloat by the NBA.

213
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 2: And the fact of the matter is that, look, there's.

214
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 5: Only thirty six games in the season compared to the

215
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 5: NBA's eighty two. And in life, let's face it, in life,

216
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,959
Speaker 5: there are people who do similar jobs don't get similar pay.

217
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 5: That that's basically what it's all about. I mean, you

218
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 5: watch TV anchors, all right. The TV anchor maybe on

219
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 5: ABC is not getting the same amount of money as

220
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 5: a TV anchor in NBC. You could do the same job,

221
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 5: but you're not going to get the same pay. That's

222
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 5: basically what it's all about. I'm not so certain the

223
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 5: WNBA is being undervalued. They should be tickled pink that

224
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 5: the NBA is throwing them the life preserver to stay afloat.

225
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 6: I mean, I said initially, but I think in listening

226
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 6: to some of the stuff that I've heard executives around

227
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 6: the WNBA talked about, they were saying, look, this league

228
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 6: has only been in existence for twenty seven years, when

229
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 6: you think about what the NBA was doing. Even back

230
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 6: when they had the thirty fifth anniversary and thirty five

231
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 6: on their jerseys, they still were operating some with tape

232
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 6: delay games of the finals where they didn't show all

233
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 6: of the finals live.

234
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 8: So if you.

235
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 6: Measure them by what the NBA was at the same stage, look,

236
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 6: they're ahead of the games, they're on track. When she's

237
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 6: talking about the undervaluing, maybe it's about look at what

238
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 6: the stars are. Look at how the TV has lined

239
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 6: up this year with just no, it's not going down.

240
00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 8: It's only going to go up.

241
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 6: As more young stars coming to this league that have

242
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 6: brands and a track record with the public, we only

243
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 6: are going to have more eyeballs on the game. And

244
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 6: so maybe right now people aren't looking with a proper

245
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 6: perspective in terms of what it could be. They're looking

246
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 6: at what it is and what it was, and not

247
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 6: necessarily casting that eye to the future in terms of

248
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 6: what the NBA would look what the WNBA would look

249
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 6: like in five, ten, maybe even fifteen years.

250
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 5: I buy that. I'll hear what you say. Okay, but

251
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 5: here's the deal. You throw that term out of casual fan.

252
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 5: I got to believe that maybe I was somewhat of

253
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 5: a casual fan because besides Angel reason creaton Clark. Really

254
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 5: and truly, I don't think there are many people interested,

255
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 5: and the attendance numbers prove it.

256
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: I mean, when Indiana.

257
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 5: Played Atlanta this year in Atlanta, they had to move

258
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 5: out of the venue that they played in Atlanta to

259
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 5: get a bigger venue because the amount of people are

260
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 5: going to the games.

261
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's going to continue.

262
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know if the Caitlin Clark magic

263
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 5: is going to continue year in a year.

264
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: I don't know.

265
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 5: I mean, maybe it will. I mean, she's developing into

266
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 5: a great player right now. She's getting it right. She

267
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 5: was named Rookie of the Month this month and the WNBA, however,

268
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 5: maybe the Harney moon will be over soon. I know,

269
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 5: we'll see when the NFL season starts. If there's still

270
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 5: an interest in the WNBA, I don't know. I think

271
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 5: it's still a shaky slope that the WNBA is on.

272
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 5: They're on their verge moving upward. But we'll continue, that's

273
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 5: the question right there. So for the WNBA executive director

274
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 5: to come out and say we're undervalued, hold it. Put

275
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 5: the brakes on just a little bit. You know, it's

276
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 5: a little too soon, I think to make that decision.

277
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 6: Maybe, But also you got to understand, like from their

278
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 6: vantage point, they always want to speak positive into it,

279
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 6: because the more that she talks about being undervalue, the

280
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 6: more we eventually have to talk about money going to

281
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 6: the pockets of the players, and their job is to

282
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,319
Speaker 6: make sure that the players get their fair share.

283
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:45,840
Speaker 8: Of the pie.

284
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 6: Maybe it's a little posturing and some of that. So

285
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 6: the statement is real, but it's also slanted and sued

286
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 6: with the note towards.

287
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 8: Making sure that the players get their fair share of

288
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 8: the pie.

289
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 5: You know, I don't get it. You know, I'm not

290
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 5: a money person. I really don't. I'm terrible with money anyway.

291
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 5: I can't even balance a checkbook. However, when I read

292
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,439
Speaker 5: the other day that the WNBA is losing one hundred

293
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 5: million dollars a year, and then last night I see

294
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 5: the Phoenix Mercury have this new practice facility for fifty

295
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 5: million dollars. I assume the league didn't pay, but I

296
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 5: assume the ownership of the Phoenix Mercury paid for that.

297
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 5: But where's this money coming from? How does a business

298
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 5: stay afloat if you're losing one hundred million dollars.

299
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: Help me out with that. I don't get it.

300
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm waiting to see if the players checks

301
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 5: are bouncing. I don't get it. How do you lose

302
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 5: that kind of money and you still stay afloat? How

303
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 5: you say you're run the valued I don't get it.

304
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 6: Well, One, you're attached to a huge brand. Obviously, the

305
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,719
Speaker 6: NBA is crushing it. Just talked about the media deal

306
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 6: that they did. Every NBA owner understands that if we

307
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 6: are willing to kind of continue to pour into this league,

308
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 6: it's going to pay off tenfold. You think about being

309
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 6: able to open up the game to more fans, it's

310
00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 6: like a different avenue to bring in people that can

311
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 6: watch by jersey, these by merchandise and those things. No

312
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 6: different than the NFL making a very strategic decision to

313
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 6: get all in behind flag football and the Flag Championships

314
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 6: that are taking place this weekend, and how that not

315
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 6: only opens it up for people that don't play tackle football,

316
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 6: but it opens up this huge lanes for girls and

317
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 6: ladies that want to participate in the spar because now

318
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 6: they're playing and all football is football they're more aptive

319
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 6: by jerseys and those things. All of this is done

320
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 6: with the design towards expanding the base and making sure

321
00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 6: that you always have people that are interested in the game,

322
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 6: not only for this year, but for the next five, ten,

323
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 6: fifteen years.

324
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 5: All right, Okay, I hear what you say. Now, let's

325
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 5: get back to the game itself. One seventeen one O nine.

326
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 5: The All Stars defeat the US national team. How bad

327
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 5: does that look for the US national team going to

328
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 5: now to France to play It's hard to defend the

329
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 5: gold medal? What does that do? I mean, do they

330
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 5: go back to the drawing Winston, we made a mistake.

331
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't understand how that could happen. And

332
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 5: we'll get to the men's game a little bit, But

333
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 5: how does that happen that the All Stars can beat

334
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,480
Speaker 5: the team that's representing our country? That to me doesn't

335
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 5: make any sense. It's almost as bad as when the

336
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 5: Holland Glow Charters lose.

337
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 8: A little bit. So a couple of different things.

338
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 6: You want to make sure that many do they have

339
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 6: the right team, and not only because a lot of

340
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 6: the conversation when they were picking the team was about

341
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 6: Kaitlyn Clark, but did they miss anybody else from the

342
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 6: w NBA that could be should be on that team

343
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 6: For the WNBA, it kind of legitimizes the league in

344
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 6: the sense of everyone talked about, you know, Kaitlyn Clark

345
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 6: coming in and how they should be thankful and on

346
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 6: their hands and knees that she arrived.

347
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 8: And some of that is true. The students should be.

348
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 6: Gracious towards Kaitlyn Clark. She and a part of that

349
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 6: crew that came in had brought more eyeballs there. But

350
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 6: I think there's a disrespect that was given to the

351
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 6: ladies that were already in the WNBA playing This allows

352
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 6: us to see how good those ladies are for them

353
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 6: to take down Team USA, a team that hasn't lost much.

354
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 6: I think there's sixty six and three over any long

355
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 6: period of time. Yeah, this is one that was good

356
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 6: for the WNBA.

357
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I think it was great. I mean,

358
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 5: it creates a lot of conversation right now. But you know,

359
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 5: Irique was school watch. She was like thirty four points,

360
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 5: she was like twenty one points in the third quarter,

361
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 5: she gets the MVP. Why isn't she on the on

362
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 5: the national team? I mean, she said she didn't want

363
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 5: to be on it. She told her to take a

364
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 5: deep breath and step away. But she had to have

365
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 5: been on the Olympic team, right, You would think that

366
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 5: she would be on that team.

367
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 6: You know, Like I think people pointed to her as

368
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,040
Speaker 6: one of the reasons everyone should probably chill on the

369
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 6: Kaitlin conversation because it took her a while to finally

370
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 6: be in consideration because it has been so loaded and

371
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 6: so good, you know, with the ladies and the number

372
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 6: of players they've had, and they won.

373
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 8: So this is a huge wake.

374
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 6: Up call, and not only for Team USA because now

375
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 6: you got to do it self check and make sure

376
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 6: he were we kind of full of ourselves when we

377
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 6: didn't cast and eye towards some of the young talent

378
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 6: I could be on this team. Are we just going

379
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,199
Speaker 6: along with the same people because we want and we

380
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 6: don't like change. Yeah, a lot of conversations will be had.

381
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 6: This is good and it ultimately will make them better

382
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 6: in the Olympics because they won't have their level of

383
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 6: complacency or entitlement that they had.

384
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 5: Well, I hear what you're saying. Look, I still think

385
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 5: that the women are going to win the goal. I

386
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,399
Speaker 5: don't think there's a problem right there, but I'm more

387
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,439
Speaker 5: word now. But the men, because the men were forty

388
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 5: three point favorites over South Sudan and it took a

389
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 5: Lebron James put back with about eight seconds to go

390
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 5: in the game to beat them one oh one, one hundred.

391
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 2: I get it. They want them the rest of the regulars.

392
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 5: And then when I hear Steve Kerr, the coach of

393
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 5: Team USA, said I didn't do a great job preparing

394
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 5: our team.

395
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:40,719
Speaker 2: How stupid is that?

396
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 5: What kind of a statement is that, you know, just

397
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 5: say we caught them on a bad day, say something

398
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 5: like that, I didn't do a great job. I'm tired

399
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 5: of coaches protecting their players by taking the rap for themselves.

400
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 5: I'm sure Kurt prepared them. These guys didn't play, that's

401
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,959
Speaker 5: the problem. I mean, And look this Joe LMB, forget it.

402
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 5: He ain't doing anything. He's not doing anything for the

403
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 5: US team. He shouldn't be playing at all. I mean,

404
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 5: I don't understand what's going on. And I'm tired of coaches,

405
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 5: you know, kind of defending their players.

406
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 2: What happened to today?

407
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 5: And maybe you were around when you played, when coaches

408
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 5: were pointing fingers at players. I think coaches are afraid

409
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 5: right now to get into a face of a player,

410
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 5: especially in the public stage. Then don't want to do it.

411
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 5: I don't know why. I just and players do good.

412
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 5: Away with murder they do. Come on, Kurt, point the finger.

413
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 5: The guys didn't play hard es basically what it's all about.

414
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 5: I know you want them to rest the regulars. I

415
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,960
Speaker 5: get it, but come on, forty three point favorites to

416
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 5: South Sudan and you went by a point.

417
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 2: Come on, really?

418
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 8: Yeah?

419
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 6: I mean, like, look, things happen. That's why you play

420
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 6: the game. I think the other thing everyone has to

421
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 6: understand that fever basketball, international basketball is much different than.

422
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 8: What we see in the NBA.

423
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 6: The NBA has put rules in place to make it

424
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 6: less restrictive for players to move around and do those things,

425
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 6: and foeba, it's not that guys can camp out in

426
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 6: the paint. Their different goaltending rules. It's very physical, a

427
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 6: far more physical game than the NBA, and players are

428
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 6: having to adjust.

429
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 8: As we look.

430
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 6: At these things, though, I think we have to remember

431
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 6: what are they for. What's the context in which we

432
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 6: want these guys to play in these games, well, now,

433
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 6: these games are tune ups for what the Olympics will

434
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 6: look like. And in fact, I would say I want

435
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 6: my team tested. I want them to expose some of

436
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 6: the things that we need to continue to work on.

437
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 6: I want to be able to have the attention, the

438
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 6: full attention of my team as we're moving forward while

439
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 6: still being able to win. So I get Steve hur

440
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 6: taking some of that on him because it is on

441
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 6: him to prepare the team. It's also on the players,

442
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 6: but yeah, the coach has to find a way to

443
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,479
Speaker 6: get the team up and going. And for everyone who

444
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 6: has taken issue with what the women's side of the

445
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 6: Dream Team has done. When it comes to leaving All Stars,

446
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 6: let's talk about Team USA.

447
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 8: On the men's.

448
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 6: Side, they decided not to take Jayden Brown. Jaylen Brown.

449
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 6: They elected to take his teammate Derrick White, who I

450
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 6: would say is not the same caliber.

451
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 8: Player, even though he may be a Blue guy.

452
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 6: There's some other things with the selection process where there's

453
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 6: some guys that are sitting at home that could be

454
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 6: playing with the team. All of that comes into play

455
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 6: when you don't play well. So, yeah, we got to

456
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 6: talk about and you're right about Joel Embiid. Joele Embiid

457
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 6: has been a big nothing burger on the court for

458
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 6: Team USA. Nothing. He hasn't offered anything. And Andy, what

459
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 6: is what is really compelling right about watching these games?

460
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: Right?

461
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 6: Because everyone talks about Lebron and Steph Curry and they're

462
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 6: in the twilight. But whenever you have all of the

463
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 6: best players and you're in a situation where the game

464
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 6: gets tight, who do they give the ball to Lebron

465
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 6: James and Steph Curry. So all the people, all the

466
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 6: Kobe Steins, all the people that talk about him not

467
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 6: being able to compete with the goat, the players are

468
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 6: telling you who they think the best players are. Regardless

469
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 6: of his age, at thirty nine, almost forty, Lebron James

470
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,639
Speaker 6: is still viewed by his peers as one of the

471
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:10,680
Speaker 6: best players in the game.

472

Speaker 5: You're the man, you really, He's Bucket Brooks, Get him

Speaker 5: to Bucky Brooks and that's Steve.

520
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:27,879
Speaker 2: Steve, You're on Fox Sports Radio.

521
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 10: Hey, Hey, Hey what man, Hey, I'm watching this replay

522
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 10: of South Sudan and USA on SS two right now, Man,

523
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 10: this is the kind of game they make movies about.

524
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 10: You know, they South Sudan should have won that game.

525
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 10: I mean, if they could stop traveling. Some of the

526
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 10: blame deserves to be on Bucky was making some great points.

527
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 10: Some of this blame deserves to be on Steve Kerr.

528
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 10: They should get Jalen Brown on this team right now.

529
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 10: I mean they got big problems. I mean, these guys

530
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 10: are too old. When your best player is forty years

531
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 10: old and you have to go to him to bail

532
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 10: you out, Steve, they started driving to the basket only

533
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,359
Speaker 10: with about five or six minutes to go. You know

534
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 10: how this goes. They do the positionless basketball, fall away

535
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 10: three's no defense, and then at the end when they say,

536
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 10: oh my god, we're going to lose the South to Dan,

537
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 10: then they start doing what they're supposed to be doing,

538
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 10: which is creating offense. That's the problem is this team

539
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:34,199
Speaker 10: is too old and they cannot create stuff off the dribble.

540
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 5: By the well, Steve, let me just say one thing.

541
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 5: The next game I coach would be my first. However,

542
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 5: I'm watching the game and I think I know a

543
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 5: little bit about basketball. They should have dominated them because

544
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 5: I have the big men and I don't know why

545
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis was not getting the ball. More give the

546
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 5: guys to the big men underneath and you could dominate.

547
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 5: Joel emb is not going to get it done, but

548
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis would and Davis to not get the balling

549
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 5: up boom.

550
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,439
Speaker 2: That's the end of the deal right there.

551
00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 10: I I completely agree, and they can't defend and Anthony Davis.

552
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 10: But you have to have something besides, I just did

553
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 10: this fall away Golden State two point of offense just

554
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 10: chased my hide. You have the greatest composition of players

555
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 10: in the world and we're just running out the shot clock,

556
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 10: throwing up threes with we deserve to lose. Yesterday Southsterdan

557
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 10: played better just to drill Steve Carr in the head

558
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 10: to stop doing this. It's not ten years ago. Steph

559
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 10: Curry is not to Steph Curry of five or ten

560
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 10: and a forty year old guy bailed us out yesterday.

561
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 10: I mean, this is this is nuts. I mean, we

562
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 10: we have the best basketball Thame goes for the women.

563
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 10: Diana Toronzi is forty two years old, and what I

564
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 10: know what she's doing there. You know, I know what

565
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 10: somebody you know. You gotta go with Angel, you gotta

566
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 10: go with Caitlin. You got to go with the new blood. Man.

567
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 10: This is just money in Jersey sales.

568
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 5: He say, you roll up. But I'll tell you what, Buck,

569
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,360
Speaker 5: I think you'll agree with me. They'll still win a goal.

570
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 5: And I think that is very similar to the NBA.

571
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 5: They play lacklust of basketball throughout the season. They turn

572
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 5: it up during the playoffs. They'll turn it up when

573
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 5: when the when the Olympics start, Do you agree, Buck,

574
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 5: they'll turn it up big time.

575
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 6: Like No, I think I think you have to be careful.

576
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 6: I think that is the thinking that we all kind

577
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 6: of get seduced into thinking that you can just hit

578
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 6: a magical switch, and that's not what can happen.

579
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 8: I think we on.

580
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 6: The outside of his fans, we need to respect all

581
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,360
Speaker 6: those opponents and and and really have a belief that, look,

582
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 6: we can get beat if we don't play our best.

583
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 6: And then the players and the coaches have to really

584
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 6: also buy into that notion that there's a team out

585
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 6: there that can be the Boogeyman and they need to

586
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 6: be ready for him. They need to play. It's a

587
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 6: different type game. And I just remember watching the Redeemed

588
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 6: team dock with Coach K and Coach K talked about

589
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 6: how they had to really do a deep dive into

590
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 6: how to play international ball, how to coach it, how

591
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 6: to get ready for it because of a completely different game.

592
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 8: These guys can't assume.

593
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 6: That they're just going to roll out the balls and

594
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 6: be the best fifteen players in the world based on

595
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 6: what they've done in the NBA.

596
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:04,200
Speaker 8: It's a completely different game.

597
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 6: If they don't play as a team, they're gonna have

598
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,239
Speaker 6: a hard time winning and winning to the level that

599
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 6: we expect them to win.

600
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 8: That's the men and women.

601
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 5: They got their last exhibition tomorrow against Germany. We'll see

602
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 5: what happens. By the way, he's Bucket Brooks and Andy Firman.

603
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 5: He's a coach. He's a coach, not a PI. Now

604
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 5: he's gone. That's coming up next on Fox Live from

605
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 5: the Tiret dot Com Studios. But we are late, and

610

611
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 11: hundred as Lebron James with a late layup to help

612
00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 11: give the United States the victory. He had a twenty

613
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 11: five points overall for the game. So we'll have one

614
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,120
Speaker 11: more tune up coming up. It'll be coming up on

616
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,680

617
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:03,600

620
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 11: in the second half. In twenty one of those thirty

621
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 11: four points coming in the third quarter, she els to

622
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,080

626
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 11: can be worth as much as two hundred and twenty

627
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 11: four million dollars. Major League Baseball, the Dodgers, for the

628
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 11: second straight day, come from behind to meet the Red Sox,

629
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 11: this time in eleven innings, seven to six s as

630
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 11: key Key Hernandez hitting the game tying home run of

631
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 11: the ninth, Will Smith with the walk off base hit

632
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 11: in the eleventh. The Milwaukee Brewers win in twelve innings

633
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 11: against the Minnesota Twins, eight to four. The Houston Astros

634
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 11: now in first place in the AL West. They beat

635
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 11: the Mariners four to two, so that knock Seattle a

636
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 11: game back of Houston in the standings, and the Mariners

637
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 11: now yeah on a losing straight day, have lost their

638
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 11: last five straight games. But the Pittsburgh Pirates on a roll.

639
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 11: They've won sixth straight, including a four to one victory

640
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 11: against the Phillies. The Tigers making four straight wins with

641
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 11: a seven to three win against the Blue Jays, and

642
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 11: in the American League East, Baltimore eight four winners of Texas.

643
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 11: The Yankees fall nine one to the Tampa Bay Rays.

644
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 11: So Baltimore's leaving the ALE East is two games back

645
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 11: to you guys.

646
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 2: All right, keV CINANAA, thank you so much. He's Bucky Brooks.

647
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 5: I'm Andy Furman with Fox Sports son thea Fox Sports Radio.

648
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 2: Will he stay? Will he go?

649
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 5: Okay, we'll get to that in just about a minute.

650
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 5: As Bucket coming up right around the bend, and the

651
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 5: big story I guess in the NFL right now, which

652
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 5: is right around the corner. I can't believe the big

653
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 5: game in Canon's gonna be a week from Thursday. You're

654
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 5: gonna blame it on Justin Jefferson, Blame it on AJ Brown,

655
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 5: blaming on Mon Ross, Saint Brown, Jalen Waddle, and Devonte

656
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 5: Smith will saying these are wide receivers and all these

657
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 5: guys going to average about twenty five mili annually. Okay,

658
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 5: Now the forty nine is wide receiver at Brendan Ayuk.

659
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 5: He wants to say he's threatening to hold out, and

660
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,959
Speaker 5: I say that the forty nine ers don't need him.

661
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: They can win without him. Does he have any leverage?

662
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think the forty nine ers

663
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: have all the cards.

664
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 5: I think he'd be out of his mind to hold out,

665
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,959
Speaker 5: and I don't think he will hold out. Last year,

666
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 5: this guy Auk had seventy five receptions over thirteen hundred yards,

667
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 5: seven touchdowns. But as you know, Bucky Brooks forty nine

668
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 5: ers have Christian McCaffrey sixty seven receptions.

669
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 2: A year ago.

670
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 5: Tight end George Kettley at sixty five and Deebo Samuel,

671
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 5: So I don't think they honestly need him to be

672
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 5: competitive your thoughts on that? And I think he's going

673
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 5: to be there when when they go, when the belt rings.

674
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 5: I think he'll be playing for the forty nine.

675
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 2: Ers this year.

676
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 6: Well, I think he has no choice but to play

677
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 6: for the Niners, just because definant schedule is so prohibitive

678
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 6: against players that elect to hold out, Like it's just

679
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 6: ridiculous in terms of the amount of money that players

680
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 6: have to pay per day by holding out, and then

681
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 6: what happens after a short period, They lose an opportunity

682
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 6: for an accrude year. So you give away additional money

683
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 6: and opportunities by not being there because you lose a

684
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 6: year on your work clock. That's significant as it relates

685
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 6: to the Niners. Yeah, the Niners can win without him,

686
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 6: but I would think people are doing people are making

687
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 6: a great mistake when they sleep on Brandon Nyuk. Brandon

688
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 6: Ayuk is the niners number one receiver. Brandon Ayuk was

689
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 6: their best receiver a season ago. Brandon and a Yuk

690
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 6: had twenty eight catches of twenty yards or more. He

691
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 6: was only behind Tyreek Hill and Cede Lamb. In terms

692
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 6: of big play factor International Football League, he averaged seventeen

693
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 6: point nine catch. You just don't see those kinds of

694
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 6: numbers from a number one receiver. And when it comes

695
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 6: down to looking at the forty nine ers wide receiver corps,

696
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,719
Speaker 6: Brandon Ayuk is the proven route runner of them all.

697
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 6: Last year, the teams in the games in which the

698
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 6: Niner struggle people played more man demand because Manda Man

699
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 6: requires you to have guys that are really precise route runners,

700
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 6: because they take away the easy throws and the things

701
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 6: that Kyle Shanahan feasts on would play action, those things.

702
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 8: Innull and void.

703
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 6: When people are willing to play Manda Man, Brandon Ayuk

704
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 6: without questing his head and shoulders above everyone else when

705
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 6: it comes to route running. Yeah, they drafted Ricky Piersol,

706
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 6: but they drafted him as a compliment to Ayuk, not

707
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 6: necessarily as a replacement to Ayuk. So they need to

708
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 6: get it back in the fold. They need to make

709
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 6: sure that he is available and does that. But it's

710
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 6: a good business for the Niners to not pay him

711
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 6: right now because Brod Purdy is eligible for an extension

712
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 6: in the offseason, and once you pay him fifty million dollars.

713
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 6: You have to make hard decisions on who you continue

714
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 6: to keep on their rust.

715
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 2: Now here's the deal. You played the game, and I'm

716
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 2: going to run this by you.

717
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 3: Would you do this?

718
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 5: Forty nine ers veterans report on Tuesday to twenty third

719
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 5: of July. If he doesn't show up, he's going to

720
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 5: get fifty thousand dollars fines for every day of his absence.

721
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 5: What moron would do anything like that? Is it worth

722
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 5: it to shit out? I have to pay fifty thousand

723
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 5: dollars a day not to be there?

724
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 2: Are you kidding? Come on, you would never do that.

725
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 8: No, I mean I would never.

726
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 6: Even last year you heard Chris Jones talk about they

727
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:15,239
Speaker 6: had to go to the Super Bowl so it can

728
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 6: make up for the two million dollars that he lost

729
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 6: during training campboay fines because the difference now is teams

730
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 6: can no longer wipe away those fines and those things.

731
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 6: A lot of times you would have holdouts in the

732
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 6: past and people were like, yeah, we know, we find

733
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 6: you one hundred and sixty thousand, but just know once

734
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 6: you signed that contract, we'll waive all those fees. The

735
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 6: league has made it where you can't do that anymore.

736
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 6: It changes everything. As much as we want all of

737
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 6: these stars and these guys to kind of like get

738
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 6: the money that they want, it's tilted in the team's favor,

739
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 6: and so teams have to be willing to exercise the

740
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,040
Speaker 6: vehicles they have at their disposal when it comes to

741
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 6: player negotiation.

742
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 5: Well, let's talk about the forty nine ers one second.

743
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 5: They advanced to the finals of the NFC Championship Game

744
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 5: for the last five years, and they came up short

745
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 5: in the Super Bowl.

746
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 2: You know, it's kind of a win now for this team.

747
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 2: They got to do it.

748
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 5: They can win without him, but they honestly would have

749
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 5: a better chance of winning with him. And you mentioned

750
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 5: a great point. They were Brock Purdy. He's under that

751
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 5: first year contract. We's betting payed like seven hundred and

752
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,760
Speaker 5: fifty thousand, which is peanuts as far as quarterbacks are concerned.

753
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,879
Speaker 5: They're gonna goost that up pretty much. So next year

754
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 5: they got to get it done. This year is a

755
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 5: big year for the forty.

756
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 8: Nine ers, huge year. Gotta get it right, no.

757
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 2: Doubt about that. All Right. He's Bucky Brooks, I'm Andy Furman.

758
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 2: We got a guy and.

759
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 5: Hold Doug call back to the top of the hour

760
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 5: because we got to ask Bucket coming up right next

761
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 5: right here on Fox Sports Sunday.

766
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,280
Speaker 5: The man with the answers coming right up. That's as Bucket.

767
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,760
Speaker 5: He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman. This is Fox Sports

768
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 5: Sunday at Fox Sports Radio. And of course we're live

769
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 5: for the Tire Rock dot Com studio. So let's do

770
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 5: We're ready, Bucket, You ready, Yeah, let's do it. Ready,

771
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 5: here we go, All right, ask Bucky. Dak Prescott is

772
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 5: just his last ride in Dallas with the Cowboys.

773
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 2: Let us know, Bucky Brokes.

774
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think this is the last one.

775
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 6: I think it's the last one just because it's gonna

776
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 6: be cost prohibitive for this team to continue to going

777
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 6: with Dak Prescott making sixty million plus the NY move

778
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 6: and they found a new quarterback.

779
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 5: Wow, all right, who will take Aaron Donald's place as

780
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 5: the most dominant NFL defender?

781
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 6: Hmmm, let's go with Miles Gear from Cleveland. He's unblockable.

782
00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 6: He has a Freakis game. He has just started to

783
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 6: kind of scratch the surface on what he could be.

784
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 8: I think his game goes to the next level.

785
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 5: Right, Okay, how soon will JJ McCarthy see the field

786
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 5: in Minneapolis?

787
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 6: I think you have to look at the record season

788
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 6: schedule and target week eleven or twelve.

789
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 8: I think it's right after their bye week. Whenever they

790
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 8: have their by week.

791
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,800
Speaker 6: The week after it could be the opportunity to switch

792
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 6: the thing up and allow him to take some of

793
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 6: those hits.

794
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 2: Okay.

795
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 5: Part two of that question is that because Sam Donald's

796
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 5: not getting it done or are they just looking for

797
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 5: the future.

798
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,280
Speaker 6: I think some of it is because they're looking towards

799
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 6: the future. Yeah, Kevin O'Connell's vested in Sam Don. If

800
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 6: Sam Donald plays well, it's another feather in his cap.

801
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,560
Speaker 6: But I just think this is about JJ McCarthy being

802
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 6: the right guy for this team right now.

803
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 5: All right, let's get back to the forty nine ers

804
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 5: for a second. Right now, two Super Bowl losses in

805
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 5: the last five years. How can the forty nine ers

806
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 5: get over that hump to get it done this year

807
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:36,959
Speaker 5: and win it all?

808
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 8: Go back, repeat it? How can we super Bowl.

809
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 5: Losses in the last five years? But how do the

810
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,240
Speaker 5: forty nine ers get over that hump? You even mentioned

811
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 5: that it is a tremendous yearn.

812
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's the passing game. It comes down to the

813
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,879
Speaker 6: passing game. Can they develop a drop back passing game?

814
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 6: When you look at when this team has been beating

815
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 6: this because teams have been able to bot up the

816
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 6: running game and take away the play action passing game,

817
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 6: which is so dependent upon the run game being established

818
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 6: when they force people, when teams are able to force

819
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 6: the Dogs into a traditional drop back passing game where

820
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 6: playfakes and those things aren't really a factor, it's been

821
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 6: hard for them and so everything falls on Call Shanahan's

822
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 6: shoulders to really create these opportunities, and it's hard to

823
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 6: do that weekend wake out. Sometimes you just want your

824
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:21,720
Speaker 6: guys to be better than the opponent.

825
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 2: Uh huh Okay.

826
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 5: Did the Green Bay Packers really strike gold with their

827
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,719
Speaker 5: quarterback Jordan Love or is it too soon to say that?

828
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,240
Speaker 6: It appears they struck gold, but more so, it appears

829
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,440
Speaker 6: that they have confirmation and validation on their development process

830
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 6: where they sit guys for a couple of years before

831
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 6: they give them the keys to the car that has worked.

832
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 6: They work for them forever. From Aaron Rodins and appears

833
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,799
Speaker 6: to work and Jordan Love. They have unlocked what you

834
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 6: need to do to get a young quarterback ready to ply.

835
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 5: All right, moving along right now. You wrote about this

836
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 5: in NFL dot com and at the top of the

837
00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:58,720
Speaker 5: hour will continue.

838
00:37:58,320 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 2: With some other things that you wrote about this week.

839
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 5: But you wrote about the Packers and their coach Matt Lafeure.

840
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 2: You said he's underrated. Tell us why he is underrated

841
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:08,439
Speaker 2: as a coach.

842
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 6: With Matt lean floor, I think a lot of it

843
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 6: is the first few seasons he won thirteen games. He

844
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 6: won thirteen in games first three seasons, but all the

845
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 6: debt was about Aaron Rodgers back to back MVPs.

846
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,000
Speaker 8: Playing at a high level.

847
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,320
Speaker 6: Well, when you remove Aaron Rodgers, this team has continued

848
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 6: to get better. They've improved. They look like a different team.

849
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 6: Dad has to go to him. He understands how to

850
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 6: put together team and no matter what we say about stars,

851
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,720
Speaker 6: he's willing to play teams without stars wing games.

852
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 5: Okay, we're entering the NFL season beginning a week from Thursday.

853
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 5: We have the Hall of Fame game, and then after

854
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 5: that you will not have a free weekend until February,

855
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 5: no doubt about that, especially on Sunday. And I'm going

856
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 5: to ask you right now one of the maybe two

857
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 5: or three biggest stories in the NFL entering the season

858
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 5: this year, and I'll tell you mine. I think mine

859
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 5: has to be Aaron Rodgers. I think that as the

860
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,720
Speaker 5: as Aaron Rodgers goes, so go the New York Jets.

861
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 5: And I think their quarterback, I mean, their coach right

862
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,360
Speaker 5: now basically is on shaky grounds. Other than Aaron Rodgers.

863
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 5: What are the big stories in the NFL this year?

864
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 8: Uh? You know.

865
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 6: The big story to me is we talked about a

866
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 6: little bit. What are the Cowboys going to do? Is

867
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 6: this the last year that the Cowboys are together? As

868
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 6: we see it? We think about Ceedee Lamb contract year,

869
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 6: Dak Prescott contract year, Michael Parson is angling for a contract.

870
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 6: How much is is you're willing to extend this window

871
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 6: by paying those guys to keep them in the fall?

872
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 2: All right, I'll ask you this.

873
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 5: And it's very unusual that a coach in the NFL

874
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 5: gets canned during the season. I think that upsets everything

875
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 5: you know to fire them after the season when they

876
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 5: have the so called Black Monday after the season. But

877
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 5: which of the coaches right now as we enter the

878
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 5: season would be considered being on the hot seat?

879
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 6: Robert Solid from the New York Jets, big time. The

880
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 6: expectation of the Jets are going to go to the super.

881
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:02,800
Speaker 8: Bowl with Aaron Rodgers.

882
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 6: They push all the chips in the middle of the table.

883
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 6: So if this team stumbles out the gate or they

884
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 6: hit one of these extended slumps, he gone, He's going

885
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 6: to be up out of there. So he got to

886
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,319
Speaker 6: get him. He got to get him playing, Gotta get

887
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 6: him playing well from the jump. If not, somebody else

888
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 6: will have that opportunity to take over to Gang Green.

889
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 5: All right, I'll ask you this, What about his neighbor

890
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 5: in New York, the coach of the New York Football Giants.

891
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 5: Could he be on the hot seat as well?

892
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 3: Yeah?

893
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 8: I think so.

894
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 6: A lot of it is how Daniel Jones looks and

895
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 6: how he looks on the sideline. Does he look like

896
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 6: mature professional? Is he someone that's loud and those things?

897
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 6: The crew everybody's been able to adapt and adjust, But

898
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,240
Speaker 6: it really comes down to that part of it.

899
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 2: Interesting, Okay, you got one more, one more coach on

900
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:44,360
Speaker 2: the hot seat to know.

901
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 8: Well on the other side, right on the other side

Speaker 4: You good morning? I'm good.

929
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 12: How a y'all doing good?

930
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 10: So?

931
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 12: I have two theories on the state Man court not

932
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 12: here in the three point contest. One, maybe she felt

933
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 12: that she didn't want to embarrass herself if she didn't win,

934
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 12: it may possibly feel like an embarrassment. Or Two, they

935
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 12: couldn't get she couldn't move the right back to the

936
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 12: half court.

937
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 5: Okay, let me just say this and I'll speak for athletes,

938
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 5: which I am not, and Bucket Brooks will agree with me.

939
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 5: I don't think there's any athlete on God's green Earth

940
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 5: that would refuse to go into a competition, a game,

941
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,280
Speaker 5: wherever it may be, for fear of losing.

942
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 2: Am I correct on that? Buck?

943
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 5: I don't think anybody, as long as you suit up

944
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 5: on any sport swimming, track and field, soccer, basketball, football, baseball,

945
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 5: you know, I don't think any athletes says I'm not

946
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,320
Speaker 5: going to go into this game or contest or challenge

947
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 5: because I may lose. Am I right about that?

948
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 2: I'm sure? I am?

949
00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 4: No?

950
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 6: I mean I think you always like, I mean, you

951
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 6: can acknowledge that that, look, this is a tough one.

952
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 6: It's gonna be a battle, but in your mind you

953
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 6: can never let it go to that point. A lot

954
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 6: of players, like, we'll talk themselves into it, whether it's

955
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:06,479
Speaker 6: false bravado or just trying to create a different reality. Yeah,

956
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,239
Speaker 6: they'll they'll talk themselves into I'm the best player here.

957
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,600
Speaker 8: Everyone came to see me, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

958
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 6: Even though they know that the task in front of

959
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 6: them is daunting, you still can never like give in

960
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,799
Speaker 6: to that. You have to put your face into your

961
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 6: work and your preparation and all the stuff that you've

962
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,439
Speaker 6: done to get ready for the game of the task

963
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 6: that you have at that day.

964
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 2: Okay, and so what was the second thing you had?

965
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,279
Speaker 2: Pud B Why she wasn't in?

966
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 12: They couldn't, She couldn't she couldn't get something to agree.

967
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 4: To move the mall rights back far enough.

968
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 6: I mean she does, I mean, she does have limitless range,

969
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 6: but I think in those situations you don't want to

970
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 6: show off.

971
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:45,919
Speaker 8: You want to make sure you can get it done.

972
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 6: But yeah, it'd be interesting to see when she does

973
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,920
Speaker 6: jump in there and participate in three point shooting.

974
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 8: What's your look like? Right?

975
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 5: And look again, she said that she didn't want to

976
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 5: do it because actually on Esco is the one who

977
00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 5: spoke for her the other day at the news conference,

978
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,840
Speaker 5: saying that she was tired. Look, I'm sure she's tired,

979
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 5: but one game, a one event is not going to

980
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 5: be her give a great rest. She didn't want to

981
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:10,719
Speaker 5: think to be all about her, and if she was

982
00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 5: going to be in that contest, it would be all

983
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,759
Speaker 5: about her. I'm not saying she's a shy individual, but

984
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 5: I think she's tired of the spotlight being on her

985
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 5: every single day. And it has been and it will be.

986
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 5: That's just the way it is, and that's why the

987
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 5: league has been thriving because of her. Really, Look, there's

988
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 5: been great players, There's no doubt Asia is great. You know,

989
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,840
Speaker 5: Angel has done a great job, but she is the key.

990
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,439
Speaker 5: She's the cog that has taken this lead to another level.

991
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 5: As we move on now comments on that.

992
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:43,360
Speaker 6: Look, she's been a big part of it. I'm not

993
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:45,239
Speaker 6: going to give her the all of the credit like

994
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,840
Speaker 6: she's the savior, but yeah, she's brought a lot of

995
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 6: attention and notoriety to the league, like the people who

996
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 6: support her in college that certainly followed.

997
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,400
Speaker 8: Her to the WNBA. And that's been good for the

998
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 8: bottom line.

999
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 5: No doubt about. And now we've got to Bucket Brooks,

1000
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,360
Speaker 5: who's missed to everything. He really is player, coach, scout

1001
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 5: and NFL dot Com rider, all right, and this week

1002
00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 5: and every Friday, he's in there. NFL dot COM's got

1003
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 5: to column. And Brandon au basically is the key right now,

1004
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,479
Speaker 5: which we talked ABOUTI a little bit in the last

1005
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,359
Speaker 5: hour about you know, he may be wanting to hold out.

1006
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 5: We'll see on the Tuesday when the veterans report the

1007
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 5: camp for the forty nine ers, the wide receiver wants

1008
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 5: more money. And I don't blame him because the salaries

1009
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 5: have gone up in that position. But we agreed that

1010
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 5: the forty nine ers could possibly survive without him, and

1011
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 5: we also agreed that perhaps he shouldn't hold out be

1012
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,000
Speaker 5: very foolish because a he'd be fined fifty thousand a

1013
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 5: year and he would not be a free agent the

1014
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 5: following year.

1015
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:36,440
Speaker 2: So where's he gonna go?

1016
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 5: And you wrote about that, where are some of the

1017
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 5: teams that Brandon Ayu may end up, could go, should go?

1018
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,800
Speaker 5: And what would the forty nine ers get in return.

1019
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 5: Let's start out with some of the people on the

1020
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 5: list that you have put out there, and you said

1021
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:55,759
Speaker 5: that he might be a possibility for the Washington Commanders.

1022
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 5: Why do you say that? Obviously they got Jaden Daniers

1023
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 5: is the quarterback. Occupianis a receiver. But again, you know

1024
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 5: he wants money. But why would he want to go

1025
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 5: to a team that's not competitive? That I don't understand whatsoever.

1026
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 6: Well, the Washington Commanders have familiarity. They offer him the

1027
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 6: opportunity to jump a situation where he knows the people

1028
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 6: that are really in charge. One Jade Daniels quarterback. They

1029
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 6: played together at Arizona State. There's a natural chemistry and

1030
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,320
Speaker 6: connectivity that's there. To Adam Peters, the new general manager

1031
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,879
Speaker 6: of the Washington Commanders, was in San Francisco when they

1032
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 6: drafted Ayuk. He knows the ins and outs about him.

1033
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 6: He knows his personality very very well. He knows how

1034
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 6: he can make him comfortable in DC. To me, those

1035
00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 6: are the things that you want. You want a quarterback

1036
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 6: who's responsible for getting you the ball to be on

1037
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 6: your side, and you want the person who ultimately is

1038
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 6: writing the big check to also be on your side

1039
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,720
Speaker 6: and Washington Brandon Ayuck is both those things in place.

1040
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 5: Okay, so let me run this by you said. Let

1041
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 5: let's say we substitute a Bucky Brooks for Brandon Ayuk.

1042
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 5: You're on the forty nine Ers, you're doing well, you're

1043
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,239
Speaker 5: making a good salary, your team is in contention. You've

1044
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 5: gone to the Super Bowl two times in the last

1045
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 5: five years. You want to get more money, so you're

1046
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 5: gonna go to the Washington Commanders. So you'll watching the

1047
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 5: super Bowl on TV. You won't be in it all right.

1048
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:16,480
Speaker 5: What's more important in the mindset of maybe many athletes

1049
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 5: right now, is it the money or is it to

1050
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 5: be a competitor and to be on a winning team.

1051
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 2: To me, I'd rather be on a winning team.

1052
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 5: If you're in Washington and after Thanksgiving when you know

1053
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,719
Speaker 5: you're not going to be in the playoffs, that's sort

1054
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 5: of depressing in my mind.

1055
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:32,760
Speaker 2: But maybe it's all about ego.

1056
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 5: Because you know these players that play your position, and

1057
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 5: you may be as good or better than them, and

1058
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:38,360
Speaker 5: they're making more money.

1059
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,600
Speaker 2: That may be a chip on your shoulder that probably

1060
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 2: bothers you a little bit.

1061
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, it certainly bothers you a little bit. But

1062
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 8: let's make sure we understand this.

1063
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:50,080
Speaker 6: Professional football is professional football because these guys are pros,

1064
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 6: and so it's always about the money, not only for

1065
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,479
Speaker 6: the players, but for the coaches and everyone around the league.

1066
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 8: You're trying to get the best.

1067
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,880
Speaker 6: Deal that you can secure your future for yourself and

1068
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,279
Speaker 6: also for your family. Now, if things are even, then

1069
00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 6: you begin to make legacy decisions. Which team is gonna

1070
00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,640
Speaker 6: put me closer to winning a Super Bowl? Howard winning

1071
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 6: a Super Bowl impact me? They forever have to call

1072
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 6: me champion. If I have that, it also helps me

1073
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 6: when it comes to my bid for Hall of Fame

1074
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 6: or any other accolades. In those things, yes, I want

1075
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 6: the team to win, but I wanted to win in

1076
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 6: the right way where everyone is pulling the ship in

1077
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 6: the right direction. So if you can find those things,

1078
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 6: it absolutely works. But the money is a big consideration

1079
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,839
Speaker 6: in these conversations, and.

1080
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 2: I get it.

1081
00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,719
Speaker 5: I get the money's a big deal, and honestly, there's

1082
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 5: only a short window where you could make that money.

1083
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 5: And more than that, you know you're always one play

1084
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,480
Speaker 5: away from being injured, and maybe a career could be finished.

1085
00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 5: So I get that you want to get the money,

1086
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,319
Speaker 5: but it's kind of like in our profession. You know,

1087
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,720
Speaker 5: a lot of people do what we do, but everybody

1088
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 5: doesn't make the same amount of money.

1089
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 2: Think about that.

1090
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, what we make is not the

1091
00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:00,319
Speaker 5: same as what guys make during the week or doing

1092
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 5: prime time hours, whoever it may be.

1093
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,600
Speaker 2: That's just the nature of the beast. That's just the

1094
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 2: way it is.

1095
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:07,760
Speaker 8: That is the way it goes.

1096
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 6: And it's one of those things that we have to

1097
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 6: be okay with. We got to underspt like, my lane

1098
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,320
Speaker 6: is my lane, and whatever was in store for you, Andy,

1099
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 6: like is in store for you. But I can't be

1100
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,719
Speaker 6: jealous or envious of what you have going because like

1101
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 6: thing works, things work out the way that they should.

1102
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 6: And so I think a lot of this stuff is

1103
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 6: about people worrying too much about other things as opposed

1104
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,279
Speaker 6: to locking in on the bottom line. Kid, the main thing,

1105
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:34,920
Speaker 6: the main thing, your performance, your production, all the other stuff.

1106
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:36,240
Speaker 6: That's what really really matters.

1107
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,799
Speaker 5: Okay, So you told about the Washington Commanders. Now let's

1108
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:40,800
Speaker 5: talk about your guy. Drake made a new quarterback in

1109
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 5: the New England Patriots, which I hope he does well,

1110
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 5: I really do. But he'll need a receiver and there's

1111
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,600
Speaker 5: a possibility maybe. And I think if I'm the Patriots

1112
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 5: and the general manager and personnel people, I'm going to

1113
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 5: try to go after this guy. I mean, you got

1114
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 5: to get Drake May a number one guy, and I

1115
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:56,640
Speaker 5: don't know. I think they really have one right now

1116
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 5: New England not.

1117
00:49:58,320 --> 00:49:58,800
Speaker 8: He don't.

1118
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 6: And the reason and why when you have a young player,

1119
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 6: you want a veteran presence on the perimeters because the

1120
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:07,240
Speaker 6: reliability and dependability. I know that when we call display,

1121
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 6: Brendan Luck is going to be at this spot. I

1122
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 6: know I can tell my quarterback, you gotta let it go.

1123
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 4: Man.

1124
00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 6: You got to trust the system, trust and process. Well,

1125
00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 6: it's a lot easier to trust when you have veterans

1126
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 6: who played in this sleep.

1127
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 8: When you have young players, you can get.

1128
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:22,800
Speaker 6: Inconsistent performance because they're still adapting and adjusting to the league.

1129
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 6: So for me, the Newton, the Patriots, they have to

1130
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 6: be at the top of the list in terms of

1131
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:28,360
Speaker 6: trying to get Brandon and you from Sanrancisco.

1132
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:30,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I tell you what, they probably are on the

1133
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 5: top of the list. And you know what that's going

1134
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 5: to cost. The page this big time, maybe a first

1135
00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 5: and a second pick and whatever it may be, and

1136
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:38,279
Speaker 5: maybe a first pick the following year.

1137
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:39,720
Speaker 2: I mean it may be that big.

1138
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 6: I mean it's going to be costly just because of

1139
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 6: the market. You're talking about an All Pro player. Now

1140
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,920
Speaker 6: what some arguing come back with. And we've seen some

1141
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 6: of this. Hey, man, I'm not paying big money for

1142
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 6: wide receiver when I can wait for the college to

1143
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,720
Speaker 6: produce a Pooka Nakoula and some other guys right away

1144
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 6: at a.

1145
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 8: Much cheaper rate.

1146
00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 6: We're going to see a slowdown, I believe, and some

1147
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 6: of the wide receiver your stuff, like you'll see the.

1148
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:04,280
Speaker 8: Top of the top of the food.

1149
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,240
Speaker 6: Chain, top of the marketplace. They may that thirty million.

1150
00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 6: The man, it's gonna be a huge drop off after that.

1151
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:09,399
Speaker 2: And I think it should be.

1152
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:11,920
Speaker 5: You know, I never understood why the wide receivers all

1153
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 5: of a sudden in the last year or so, these

1154
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 5: salaries of skyrocketed because maybe one general manager decided to

1155
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 5: bay some big bucks. And I think wide receivers, and

1156
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 5: maybe I'm crazy for saying this, I think there're a

1157
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:23,759
Speaker 5: dime a dozen. You get a guy who could catch

1158
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 5: and he's fast, and he's in the draft and you

1159
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 5: get him every year and you get good size. I

1160
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 5: never understood, especially in this day and age, where the

1161
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 5: quarterback eats up so much of that salary structure.

1162
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 2: You really can't afford to pay the other positions.

1163
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 5: We've seen that with the running back position, and there's

1164
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 5: no longer even a fullback fullback so like dinosaurs, so

1165
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 5: you'll see that squashing other positions to save the quarterback

1166
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:48,240
Speaker 5: and save that money that's needed to pay the quarterback.

1167
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,399
Speaker 6: Yeah, but the quarterback can't exist without everything around him

1168
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,239
Speaker 6: functioning at a high level. So if you have the

1169
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 6: greatest quarterbacks, then you have poor receivers. You're not gonna

1170
00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:59,240
Speaker 6: win games because they can't catch what he's delivering.

1171
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,759
Speaker 5: The Pageots had a great quarterback on that poor or

1172
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 5: basically no receivers.

1173
00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:04,640
Speaker 2: Think about that.

1174
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 5: How many Hall of Famous receivers did Tom Brady have

1175
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:07,920
Speaker 5: throughout his career?

1176
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:12,600
Speaker 6: Really, I mean not many, and they won, But you

1177
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,200
Speaker 6: got to remember those first three championships. I would say

1178
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,799
Speaker 6: they didn't win because directly of Tom Brady. They won

1179
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,319
Speaker 6: because the defense of other parts of the team. Those

1180
00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:21,960
Speaker 6: last three did he want in New England?

1181
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, he was a big part of that.

1182
00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 6: But they won as a collective, and so there is

1183
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 6: something to that point. However, how many of those quarterbacks

1184
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 6: exist in the league today. How many of those quarterbacks

1185
00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:37,120
Speaker 6: can we put on the Tom Brady Patrick Mahomes level

1186
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,439
Speaker 6: where we talk about these guys can take anything and win.

1187
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:41,240
Speaker 8: They're not many.

1188
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 6: Most of the quarterbacks in place need assistants. They need

1189
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,279
Speaker 6: to run a game, they need good play call they

1190
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 6: need playmakers, they need everything to flourish and thrive.

1191
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 8: The elites, the greats, they don't.

1192
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,839
Speaker 6: And that's why it's gotten skewed because people have been

1193
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 6: able to look at Tom Brady and even to a

1194
00:52:57,600 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 6: lesser degree, Pat Mahomes and what they've been able to

1195
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:01,120
Speaker 6: do in terms of winning Super Bowls and say.

1196
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 8: Hey, we don't need that.

1197
00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 6: Now, you don't need that if you've got one of

1198
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,000
Speaker 6: the greatest of all time at quarterback. But if you don't,

1199
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,440
Speaker 6: you better get you some weapons around him so they

1200
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 6: can elevate his game too.

1201
00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 2: I hear you, Okay.

1202
00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:13,719
Speaker 5: Now, when we talked about why I asked you the question,

1203
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:15,399
Speaker 5: I mean, the big stories this year in the National

1204
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 5: Football League, and we said Aaron Rodgers probably be one

1205
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 5: of the bigger ones because you know, as he goes

1206
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 5: so go to Jets, there's a lot of pressure on

1207
00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 5: the Jets and.

1208
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:23,320
Speaker 2: The coaching staff.

1209
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,880
Speaker 5: I think one of the stories we kind of slipped

1210
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 5: on we didn't mention the Russell Wilson justin field situation

1211
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 5: in Pittsburgh at quarterback, and we talked about what he

1212
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 5: might need. What that quarterback might need is to receive it.

1213
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,760
Speaker 5: I got George Pickens, but I think they got Brandon

1214
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 5: Ayuk will be a big deal. I think the Pittsburgh

1215
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 5: Steelers should be or could be in the running for

1216
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:41,920
Speaker 5: a Brandon Ayuc.

1217
00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:44,960
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1218
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 6: When I think about it, the Pittsburgh Steelers want playmakers

1219
00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 6: around George Pickens. They want to compliment what George Pickens is.

1220
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 6: George Pickens is a big play specialist. Well, you now

1221
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,680
Speaker 6: put together two guys that can push down to field

1222
00:53:57,800 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 6: on those vertical routes.

1223
00:53:58,880 --> 00:53:59,920
Speaker 8: You look at the quarterback.

1224
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:03,200
Speaker 6: Russell Wilson's better when he throws the ball down the field.

1225
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,960
Speaker 6: They don't want to deconduct if they're going to, I

1226
00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:11,200
Speaker 6: guess invest the time and way the odds of what

1227
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 6: a negative could happen when it comes to a pass play.

1228
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,239
Speaker 6: They want big bang for their buck. He gives them

1229
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:17,320
Speaker 6: a big bang playmaker.

1230
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 5: All right now, I got to tell you right now,

1231
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,560
Speaker 5: and I apologize I have not I have not goofed

1232
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,440
Speaker 5: up on this. I've been following up the mama of

1233
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 5: aman Ron Saint Brown, the receiver of the Detroit Lions.

1234
00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:30,759
Speaker 5: She has not gotten back to me. I try to

1235
00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 5: give him on Saint Brian. I've been texting her every

1236
00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:36,200
Speaker 5: other day, and I means she's gonna probably say I'm

1237
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:39,719
Speaker 5: a stalker. I mean, I'm gonna call her tomorrow. I'm

1238
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:41,840
Speaker 5: gonna say because they're going to training campstry. So I

1239
00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 5: don't think we're gonna get it, but I'm trying. But

1240
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,320
Speaker 5: you did mention in your list that the Detroit Lions

1241
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:50,600
Speaker 5: could be looking at are you looking? I don't understand why,

1242
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:52,920
Speaker 5: because they got some receivers here, they really do. Why

1243
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:54,800
Speaker 5: would they need a Brandon Ayuk.

1244
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 6: Well, what they would do would be a double whammy. One,

1245
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,840
Speaker 6: it would add a number one receiver on the perimeter

1246
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,320
Speaker 6: to what they already have in place. And two, it

1247
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:08,080
Speaker 6: would knock down their biggest rival, their biggest contentent. Remember,

1248
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 6: the Detroit Lions were up I think seventeen on the Niners.

1249
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 6: In the NFC Championship game, they are as good. I mean, look,

1250
00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 6: they are a team that has designs on a Super Bowl.

1251
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 8: Why not go all in?

1252
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 6: Because when you look at their lineup with Brandon and

1253
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 6: you're coming on board with a marm Ra Saint Browns,

1254
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:27,160
Speaker 6: Jamison Williams, you's thinking about two running backs David Montgomery,

1255
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:29,720
Speaker 6: Jamior Gibs Sam Laporte over the middle field.

1256
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 8: How do you stop that? How do you defend that?

1257
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 8: You can't? And so that's why you want to think

1258
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:35,080
Speaker 8: about that.

1259
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 6: Like Jered Golf could just pitch and catch and enjoy

1260
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 6: what he has around him.

1261
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 8: That's why it makes sense to me.

1262
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:45,640
Speaker 6: And you rob the Niners of their number one receiver,

1263
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,960
Speaker 6: you weaken them. So when you do play in a rematch,

1264
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 6: look the field tips in your favor.

1265
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying.

1266
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,880
Speaker 5: Last, but not least, you said the New York Football

1267
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,160
Speaker 5: Giants may be interested in Brandon and I are. And

1268
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,680
Speaker 5: if I'm Brandon, Ayuk, listen to me. Please, if you're listening, Brandon,

1269
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:07,800
Speaker 5: stay away. You don't want to play with Daniel Jones.

1270
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 5: I just don't think that you're gonna put up any

1271
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 5: numbers whatsoever. If you end up in the Giants with

1272
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 5: Daniel Jones. Maybe I'm crazy. I know they got my

1273
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 5: leak neighbors at the receiver. He could probably be a

1274
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,919
Speaker 5: decent pro. But if the Giants get him, I think

1275
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:22,960
Speaker 5: that you're not gonna hear much of Brandon Ayuk. Maybe

1276
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:24,879
Speaker 5: I'm crazy. Just my take on that.

1277
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 8: He said.

1278
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,479
Speaker 6: He said, if who gets and we won't hear about

1279
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:32,920
Speaker 6: him anymore. We think that if you think he's faded

1280
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 6: to oblivion, he's factor.

1281
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:36,920
Speaker 5: I don't think he'll have the numbers he had in

1282
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:39,160
Speaker 5: San Francisco with Daniel Jones a quarterback.

1283
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 8: No, he won't have the numbers, but he'll have the bread.

1284
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:44,840
Speaker 6: And if he said move like it's just strictly for

1285
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:48,399
Speaker 6: the bag, it's strictly for the money, because they will

1286
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:50,760
Speaker 6: find a way to kind of create some things or whatever.

1287
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 8: And as great as brandan.

1288
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:55,239
Speaker 6: Aki Yuki is, it depends on the quarterback situation and

1289
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:58,120
Speaker 6: they can't he trust someone to go in the outside

1290
00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:00,719
Speaker 6: and feed him. If he does, then it makes sense,

1291
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 6: like from marketing standpoint or whatever. There are a lot

1292
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 6: of things that make sense about it. It's just that

1293
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,840
Speaker 6: is the football good enough? Can you endure the football?

1294
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 6: To deal with all the other stuff that comes along

1295
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 6: with being there.

1296
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:13,320
Speaker 5: I hear what you're saying, but I think at the

1297
00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:15,239
Speaker 5: end of the day he will be playing for the

1298
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:17,520
Speaker 5: San Francisco forty nine ers. He'll suck it up just

1299
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:19,400
Speaker 5: just the way it's gonna be, and they're gonna try

1300
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,160
Speaker 5: to go to the Super Bowl. He's Bucky Brooks. Get

Speaker 5: Sunday posted right after we get off the year. Now,

1337
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 5: last year, bucket, this team went from worst to first.

1338
00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 5: We're talking about the Houston Houston Texans. Can they repeat?

1339
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 5: I took a look at this schedule. Take a look

1340
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:29,160
Speaker 5: at the schedule right now. They're playing five defending division champions.

1341
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 5: They're playing seven playoff teams, eleven games against teams that

1342
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:36,960
Speaker 5: finished last year with winning records. They'll play against Mahomes,

1343
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:43,960
Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Dak Prescott, Aaron Rodgers, Tua Jordan Love,

1344
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:48,440
Speaker 5: Jared Goff, and Caleb Williams. Can they come back? That

1345
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,480
Speaker 5: the quarterback was the offensive rookie of the year in CJ. Stroud.

1346
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,360
Speaker 5: He threw for over forty on hundred yards, twenty three tds,

1347
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 5: only five ironts.

1348
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 2: But can they do it again?

1349
00:59:57,800 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 5: That got a little stronger running back, that got Joe

1350
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 5: Mi Wide receive the Stefan Diggs who joins Tank Dell

1351
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 5: and Nico Collins.

1352
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 2: Can it come back?

1353
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:10,439
Speaker 5: Because obviously CJ says that this offense on his team

1354
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:13,240
Speaker 5: looks like a monster. They made very well, but the

1355
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 5: schedule looks like a monster too.

1356
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1357
01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:21,240
Speaker 6: No, it's such an interesting time when you just look

1358
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:23,640
Speaker 6: around and you just look at leaguing and you assess everything.

1359
01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 8: Like what I love about like.

1360
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 6: Sports, in all sports is being able to kind of

1361
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 6: look and see the teams on the rise and the

1362
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 6: teams that are dominant teams and being able to hold on.

1363
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,160
Speaker 6: And I think this has given us an opportunity to

1364
01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:37,400
Speaker 6: see that. And as we continue to look in assess

1365
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 6: and see which teams are bubbling up, I like it.

1366
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:41,960
Speaker 6: I think it's time for us to be able to kind.

1367
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 8: Of look at that. I appreciate that.

1368
01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 6: I appreciate that, I would say the hunters while also

1369
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:48,919
Speaker 6: appreciating someone to hunt it right.

1370
01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 5: And I don't think anybody in their right mind, not

1371
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:53,920
Speaker 5: even you Bucky Brooks, could have predicted what they did

1372
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:54,440
Speaker 5: last year.

1373
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 2: Is that true? Did you see that coming?

1374
01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 8: I did not see it coming. It kind of came

1375
01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:00,440
Speaker 8: out of nowhere. Didn't see it coming. I didn't see

1376
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 8: it coming. I didn't think it would be a team

1377
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:01,880
Speaker 8: like that.

1378
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:04,520
Speaker 6: I mean, you always think, well, maybe there's always a

1379
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 6: team on the rise, but I certainly didn't predict that

1380
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:08,240
Speaker 6: they would make the run that they ring.

1381
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 2: Okay, so now we look at CJ. Stroud.

1382
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 5: You know, obviously defense is going to be ready for

1383
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,720
Speaker 5: him right now. They were not ready for him last year.

1384
01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:16,200
Speaker 2: Through for forty one hundred yards plus.

1385
01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 5: Can he do it again? Will he do it again?

1386
01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:22,200
Speaker 5: Will the defenses right now, you know, be ready for him.

1387
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 5: Will it make it a little more difficult? Will he

1388
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 5: basically face the sophomore slump?

1389
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:31,280
Speaker 6: I would say that their better positioned for him to

1390
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,600
Speaker 6: repeat it. And one of the reasons why it is

1391
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 6: Stephan Diggs coming over. It's a better team than they

1392
01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:39,160
Speaker 6: had last year. You talked about Nico Collins, you can

1393
01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,720
Speaker 6: talk about tang Dale, but Stefan Diggs is legit and

1394
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,200
Speaker 6: even though he won't necessarily be the number one there,

1395
01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 6: he'll set the table for everybody else.

1396
01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:48,440
Speaker 8: But it's not just him.

1397
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 6: Joe Mixing giving him that punch in the running game

1398
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 6: and the singletary did a great job.

1399
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 8: But he's not but Joe Mixing can be when Joe

1400
01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:56,680
Speaker 8: Mixon is right.

1401
01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:59,480
Speaker 6: And then on defense, Daniel Hunter coming on board to

1402
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:02,440
Speaker 6: compliment Will Anderson. It's a really good team. Now they

1403
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 6: have to deal with the weight of expectations and how

1404
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:04,920
Speaker 6: that goes.

1405
01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 8: But man, I mean, their rocks solid, their rocks out.

1406
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:11,800
Speaker 6: They're really, really good football team and theatre Quarterabaal.

1407
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:14,080
Speaker 5: I believe Stefan Diggs makes them a better team. They

1408
01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 5: got three tough receivers right now in Dell Collins and Diggs.

1409
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:18,960
Speaker 5: They're going to be really good this year and I

1410
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 5: think they'd be the team to watch. But you know what,

1411
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:22,919
Speaker 5: let's talk about that. What other teams do you see

1412
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 5: that are on the rise. They're going to turn it around,

1413
01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:26,280
Speaker 5: and I think one of those teams, in my mind,

1414
01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:28,720
Speaker 5: is going to be the Charges because of Harbaugh.

1415
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:29,640
Speaker 2: I really believe that.

1416
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:34,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, Harbor is everything when it comes to like team building,

1417
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:36,600
Speaker 6: and you can just hear how the players are bought in.

1418
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:38,560
Speaker 6: You hear how they talk, you hear how they responded.

1419
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,840
Speaker 6: You see so many of them in the offseason program.

1420
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:43,560
Speaker 6: It's because he is a former player that can sell

1421
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 6: the right stuff. He can sell winning. He has a

1422
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:49,880
Speaker 6: resume of winning everywhere he's been and so when he speaks,

1423
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 6: they listen. They are a team that for all the

1424
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,560
Speaker 6: things that we talk about, the talent that they've had,

1425
01:02:55,560 --> 01:02:57,480
Speaker 6: because we've always talked about this team in the top five,

1426
01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:01,080
Speaker 6: top ten roster. They have a quarterback that is lights

1427
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:03,040
Speaker 6: out who has the pretendial to be even better than

1428
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 6: he shown. Harbor will bring that out, and it may

1429
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 6: bring it out by doing a less is more type approach,

1430
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:14,040
Speaker 6: more runs, fewer things on his shoulders, better production, more effectiveness,

1431
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:15,880
Speaker 6: and that that could be the way that the Charges

1432
01:03:15,920 --> 01:03:16,680
Speaker 6: get back on track.

1433
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,600
Speaker 5: Right I think you're going to see a revised and

1434
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:23,040
Speaker 5: a brand new Justin Herbert under the tutelage of Harbor,

1435
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:27,720
Speaker 5: because Herbert came out of college basically, you know, very heralded,

1436
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 5: and it was like head and shoulders, head to head

1437
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,440
Speaker 5: with Joe Burrow, and Borrow, to be quite honest, has

1438
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 5: passed him by right now. But you're gonna see a

1439
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:36,840
Speaker 5: different Justin.

1440
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 2: Herbert this year.

1441
01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:39,480
Speaker 5: I really believe this guy is really going to put

1442
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 5: put it together because of Jim Jim Harbar's coaching.

1443
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I think you certainly would put it together.

1444
01:03:45,800 --> 01:03:48,760
Speaker 6: And Harvard's coaching is everything. He'll give them the swagger,

1445
01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:52,000
Speaker 6: He'll give them the toughness. The toughness is also what

1446
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 6: is needed. You need those guys that can be able

1447
01:03:55,160 --> 01:04:00,080
Speaker 6: to kind of add that physicality, that that that that

1448
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:03,440
Speaker 6: they grit, they grind that you have to have to

1449
01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:04,920
Speaker 6: be able to separate your sales from some of the

1450
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:05,600
Speaker 6: teams in the league.

1451
01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:07,440
Speaker 8: He believes in that he's going to do that their

1452
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 8: strength and conditioning program. Being Herbert taking that part.

1453
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 6: Over, there are gains that you can make within the

1454
01:04:13,680 --> 01:04:16,960
Speaker 6: margins by being able to really build a physical team,

1455
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,000
Speaker 6: a team that embraces that kind of grind and that

1456
01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 6: can ryn me style, but also puts themselves in a

1457
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 6: position to do it by the way they work in

1458
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 6: the off season, weight room, on the field, running and

1459
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:28,960
Speaker 6: conditioning in those things. To me, that is a huge

1460
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 6: advantage in this one that Harbor has always taken advantage

1461
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:32,800
Speaker 6: of him building his teams.

1462
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:33,800
Speaker 2: You know, I know CJ.

1463
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,200
Speaker 5: Straub basically was the offensive Rookie of the Year last year,

1464
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 5: but I had no idea that he was just a

1465
01:04:37,680 --> 01:04:40,800
Speaker 5: fifth rookie to pass for more than four thousand yards.

1466
01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,640
Speaker 5: He let the NFL in touchdown to interception ratio twenty

1467
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:45,920
Speaker 5: three to five, and he did win that Rookie of

1468
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,120
Speaker 5: the Year deal on the offensive side of the football.

1469
01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:51,160
Speaker 5: I mean to me that that's an amazing stot for

1470
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:52,920
Speaker 5: a guy to come into the league. I mean it

1471
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:57,640
Speaker 5: certainly it takes years at times for people to develop.

1472
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:00,120
Speaker 5: We're not going to see Caleb Williams do whate a

1473
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:03,240
Speaker 5: Stroud did. I just think that what CJ. Stroud did

1474
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 5: was very.

1475
01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 2: Very unusual.

1476
01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 5: It doesn't happen. I mean what we saw there was

1477
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:11,440
Speaker 5: was quite unusual. I don't think you'll see that with

1478
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:13,760
Speaker 5: Caleb Williams this year. I just don't think you'll see it.

1479
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:16,320
Speaker 6: No, you may not see it from Williams, which you

1480
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:18,160
Speaker 6: could see it from Jade and Daniels just because of

1481
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:21,479
Speaker 6: the experience factor. One of those guys is gonna pop.

1482
01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 6: One of those guys is gonna be a surprise. Maybe

1483
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:25,400
Speaker 6: it's Kavith Williams, maybe it's Jaden Daniels. Uh.

1484
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 8: C J.

1485
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:29,920
Speaker 6: Stroud to me, was beat up unfairly during the draft process.

1486
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:33,400
Speaker 6: The conversation between him and Bryce Young should have been closer. Obviously,

1487
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:35,400
Speaker 6: you look at the way they played. Some would say

1488
01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:37,840
Speaker 6: that maybe maybe everyone the football WORLK got it wrong

1489
01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 6: in terms of which quarterback should have been QB one. Uh.

1490
01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:42,840
Speaker 8: C J. Stroud was different.

1491
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:44,640
Speaker 6: Though, because he just had that dog and he had

1492
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:49,920
Speaker 6: to steally confidence that was unshakable, and his teammates gravitated

1493
01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 6: to it.

1494
01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:51,760
Speaker 8: And then he's skilled enough to be able to make

1495
01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:52,920
Speaker 8: the plays.

1496
01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 2: There we go all right, he's Bucket Brooks. I mean

1497
01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 2: they Firman.

1498
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:57,200
Speaker 5: We are Fox Sports something on Fox What's Radio? By

1499
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:01,320
Speaker 5: the way, one sports team is headed down the wrong path.

1500
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:02,880
Speaker 5: They really are. We'll tell you all about it. It's

1501
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,880
Speaker 5: coming up next live for the ti iraq dot com studios.

1502
01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 5: But first, Kevin why with all your sports?

1503
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:10,080
Speaker 12: Yeah?

1504
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,560
Speaker 11: It was a nail bider for the US men's Olympic

1505
01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:16,400
Speaker 11: basketball team. They trailed South Sudan by double digits. It

1506
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 11: was a sixteen point difference at one point in the

1507
01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 11: first half, but they were able to come back and

1508
01:06:22,280 --> 01:06:25,280
Speaker 11: win it on a late Lebron late layup by Lebron

1509
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,440
Speaker 11: James to win it one to one to one hundred,

1510
01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,880
Speaker 11: but that much too close for comfort, as the Americans

1511
01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 11: do have one more Olympic tune up match before heading

1512
01:06:34,240 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 11: out to Paris. It'll be Monday against Germany and can

1513
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:40,640
Speaker 11: be seen over on Fox. As for the women's Olympic

1514
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 11: basketball team, they lost to the WNBA All Stars Saturday

1515
01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:48,960
Speaker 11: night one seventeen one h nine arique On Gumbowali scoring

1516
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 11: thirty four points, twenty one of them came in the

1517
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:54,920
Speaker 11: third quarter, and it also sets a new record for

1518
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 11: most points in an All Star game, Angel Reese a

1519
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 11: double double, twelve points, eleven rebounds, Caitlyn Clark with ten dimes.

1520
01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:07,080
Speaker 11: And in Major League Baseball, the Dodgers, for the second

1521
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 11: day in a row, come from behind to beat the

1522
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:12,720
Speaker 11: Boston Red Sox, doing it this time an extra innings.

1523
01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:15,600
Speaker 11: Key k Hernandez with a game tying home run in

1524
01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:18,640
Speaker 11: the ninth, Will Smith with a walk off RBI base

1525
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,439
Speaker 11: hit in the eleventh to win its seven to six.

1526
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 11: Milwaukee goes to twelve innings against the Minnesota Twins before

1527
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:28,600
Speaker 11: the Brewers win it eight to four. The Seattle Mariners

1528
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:31,439
Speaker 11: now out of first place, they've really been in free fall.

1529
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:33,880
Speaker 11: They've lost five games in a row, including a defeat

1530
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:37,520
Speaker 11: to the Houston Astros four to two, so now the

1531
01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 11: Astros in first place in the American League West by

1532
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:47,160
Speaker 11: one game. The Pittsburgh Pirates won their sixth straight game

1533
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:50,200
Speaker 11: four to one against the Phillies. Tigers make it four

1534
01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:53,480
Speaker 11: straight a seven to three win against the Toronto Blue Jays.

1535
01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 11: And in the American League East, the Orioles up by

1536
01:07:56,760 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 11: two games as they beat the Texas Rangers eight to war,

1537
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:04,360
Speaker 11: while the Yankees fall the Rays nine to one. About

1538
01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:04,800
Speaker 11: you guys.

1539
01:08:05,160 --> 01:08:05,400
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1540
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:08,840
Speaker 5: Kevisseying about it now? All right, they're creating a major mess.

1541
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:10,320
Speaker 5: We'll get to that in just about a minute. He

1542
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 5: is Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Furman. And by the way,

1543
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:14,800
Speaker 5: we have bottom barrel betting coming up at about eight

1544
01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 5: nine minutes from now. Let me share a story with

1545
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:18,599
Speaker 5: you if I can for a second. But not to

1546
01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:21,200
Speaker 5: be a name draper, but I guess I am. The

1547
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:25,439
Speaker 5: other day some local radio guy and it wasn't from Fox.

1548
01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:27,760
Speaker 5: I mean I saw it on Twitter, but I know

1549
01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,479
Speaker 5: he's on radio, and he called Bill Belichick, my guy,

1550
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 5: Bill Belichick called him a hypocrite, called him a hypocrite

1551
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 5: because he said because Belichick had never was basically there

1552
01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 5: for postgame interviews, kind of shunned the media, and now

1553
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,360
Speaker 5: he's part of the media, so now he's a hypocrite.

1554
01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,479
Speaker 5: So I read that and I kind of really got upset,

1555
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 5: and I was going to write this character back up,

1556
01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:51,439
Speaker 5: but I held my tongue and I didn't do it.

1557
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:54,519
Speaker 5: But I text Bill, seeing I'm not trying to drop names,

1558
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 5: but I got his number and we do correspond, and

1559
01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:58,800
Speaker 5: I said, this guy called you a hypocrite, but I

1560
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:00,479
Speaker 5: held back I didn't want to do it and everything

1561
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:02,040
Speaker 5: like that, and I asked him he wanted to come

1562
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:04,240
Speaker 5: on with us today, but he said no, maybe in

1563
01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 5: the future he might do it.

1564
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:07,920
Speaker 2: So there is my Bill Belichick story for today. But

1565
01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:08,880
Speaker 2: we move on.

1566
01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:10,880
Speaker 5: I mean, you know the way I am Buck, I

1567
01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:13,000
Speaker 5: write the people, I call people, I send him text.

1568
01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:14,680
Speaker 5: That's just the way I do. I got too much

1569
01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:16,920
Speaker 5: free time on my hand. Maybe that's why I bug you.

1570
01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 5: I'm sure I've sent you a couple of letters to already.

1571
01:09:19,240 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 5: I'm sure you've gotten.

1572
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 8: Some for you.

1573
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,280
Speaker 5: All right, I'm trying doing the best I can. I'm

1574
01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:28,200
Speaker 5: going to run this by about this team, the Chicago

1575
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:32,120
Speaker 5: Fire in Major League Soccer. They announced just the end

1576
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,479
Speaker 5: of day, which is like crazy. Why they're doing this.

1577
01:09:34,560 --> 01:09:36,519
Speaker 5: They're going to set a bad president. I'm telling you,

1578
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:40,040
Speaker 5: they're going to provide compensation to fans if Lionel Messi

1579
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,479
Speaker 5: is unable to feature during the injury that he has

1580
01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:44,600
Speaker 5: when the Miami.

1581
01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:46,160
Speaker 2: FC visit Soldier Field August thirty.

1582
01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:46,439
Speaker 3: First.

1583
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 5: This is terrible. This is a bad president. Think about

1584
01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,920
Speaker 5: the NBA when Lebron sits. Our team is going to

1585
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 5: pay back the fans. Right now, if Lebron doesn't play.

1586
01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 5: It's unbelievable. Why are they doing this. I don't get it.

1587
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:01,840
Speaker 5: Fans who already have tickets to the Fire are going

1588
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 5: to offer the opportunity to claim two complementary tickets to

1589
01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:10,400
Speaker 5: the Fires twenty twenty fourth Fan Appreciation Night for October nineteenth.

1590
01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 5: They're playing Nashville le f C.

1591
01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:12,960
Speaker 2: On that night.

1592
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:16,479
Speaker 5: They're giving money back to giving tickets back. It's not

1593
01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:18,960
Speaker 5: a good thing. It's not a good look. I'm telling you.

1594
01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 5: They're going down the wrong path. Other teams are going

1595
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:23,360
Speaker 5: to do it and it's going to get ugly. It's

1596
01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:27,320
Speaker 5: a terrible Please don't do this. It's not good for sports.

1597
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 5: If the guy doesn't play. Part of the game. The

1598
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:32,200
Speaker 5: guy doesn't play. Hey, you go to a Broadway show.

1599
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 5: Sometimes the start doesn't play. They got the standings, that's

1600
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 5: what they do. It doesn't happen all the time that

1601
01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:38,599
Speaker 5: they're going to see the number one guy.

1602
01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:40,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, it doesn't happen all the time, because if you

1603
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:43,360
Speaker 6: start giving away money. Man, you just talked about everyone

1604
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:45,400
Speaker 6: asks for a refunm whenever they don't get their way.

1605
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,800
Speaker 6: It's just one of the things that look, man, that's

1606
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:51,679
Speaker 6: a part of the deal. When you take the risks,

1607
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 6: you assume the risk of buying a ticket, you assume

1608
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:55,120
Speaker 6: that the player may not be Doude.

1609
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:56,600
Speaker 2: It's amazing o.

1610
01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:59,599
Speaker 5: The tickets for at August thirty first match went into

1611
01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:02,720
Speaker 5: my They started eighty nine bucks, which you know, I

1612
01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:04,679
Speaker 5: guess in this day and age, that's not that bad.

1613
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,240
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm looking what ticket prices are all over

1614
01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:09,559
Speaker 5: the place. You probably have to take out a second mortgage.

1615
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:10,160
Speaker 2: Sometimes they got to.

1616
01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:12,360
Speaker 5: Win an NFL game for a family of four. It

1617
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 5: really is, but it looked the MESSI failed to travel

1618
01:11:15,479 --> 01:11:18,120
Speaker 5: to Chicago the last time these two teams met. That

1619
01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:21,760
Speaker 5: was at Soldier Field on October fourth, twenty twenty three.

1620
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:25,120
Speaker 5: He had himself on a right leg injury that kicked

1621
01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,240
Speaker 5: them on the sidelines. They didn't give them money back then,

1622
01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,719
Speaker 5: but you know what they had sixty two thousand fans

1623
01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:35,200
Speaker 5: they watched as the fire beat of Miami four to one. Now, look,

1624
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:38,760
Speaker 5: I worked in North American Soccer League. I was the

1625
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:41,280
Speaker 5: PR guy for the then for Lord of Dale Strikers,

1626
01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,120
Speaker 5: and we had some great players. We had George Best,

1627
01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:47,360
Speaker 5: and sometimes George Best would go on a on a trip.

1628
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:50,200
Speaker 5: You never know where he was he was gone, he'd

1629
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:52,479
Speaker 5: go a wall. May he rest in peace. But we

1630
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,840
Speaker 5: never get the money back when George didn't play and

1631
01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,519
Speaker 5: George was the star, George was a George name of

1632
01:11:57,640 --> 01:11:59,760
Speaker 5: the Joe Namath back in the day in the North

1633
01:11:59,760 --> 01:12:02,320
Speaker 5: of Con Soccer League. We got off the plane, we

1634
01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:05,320
Speaker 5: played the San Jose earthquakes through a five thousand women

1635
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:07,479
Speaker 5: at the airport. I promise you're waiting for George Best,

1636
01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:11,559
Speaker 5: but really I never saw anything like that. George Best

1637
01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:14,360
Speaker 5: was the guy. But when he didn't play, we never

1638
01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,639
Speaker 5: offered money back as a team, and no one demanded

1639
01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:20,519
Speaker 5: their money back or tickets back or a complimentary ticket

1640
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:22,759
Speaker 5: to another game. It doesn't work that way. It shouldn't

1641
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:26,160
Speaker 5: work that way. Why they thought about this is beyond me,

1642
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:28,360
Speaker 5: and it's not gonna be it's not gonna be good.

1643
01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 2: It's going to force other teams to do the same thing.

1644
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm sure.

1645
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:33,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think other things need to stay a whole

1646
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 6: firm on it, right, Like, hey man, you bought a ticket.

1647
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,200
Speaker 6: You assumed the risks. We don't guarantee anything. You bought

1648
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:40,920
Speaker 6: a ticket. This is what it is and that's how

1649
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:44,880
Speaker 6: it should be. Uh, you started rewarding fans and giving

1650
01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 6: fans their money back.

1651
01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:48,879
Speaker 8: I just think you just you don't. It's a slippery slope.

1652
01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,599
Speaker 5: Well, when Miami played the Vancouver white Caps earlier this

1653
01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:56,840
Speaker 5: year and Miami rested Messi, Messi did not even play.

1654
01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:58,840
Speaker 5: He was there, He wasn't nervy. They arrested him, and

1655
01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:02,479
Speaker 5: they rested him and Louis Suarez and Sergeia Besquez. They

1656
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:07,400
Speaker 5: rested those guys for the game. The team, the Vancouver Whitecafs,

1657
01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,600
Speaker 5: get this. They offered fifty percent off on in stadium

1658
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:14,040
Speaker 5: food and drinks to the crowd. You can't do that.

1659
01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:16,880
Speaker 5: You just can't do that. I mean, you just have

1660
01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:19,479
Speaker 5: to suck it up. And that's the way it is.

1661
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:23,320
Speaker 5: The Fire also offered fans and incentive get this of

1662
01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:26,519
Speaker 5: a two hundred and fifty dollars account credit towards new

1663
01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:29,639
Speaker 5: memberships for twenty twenty four or a fifty dollars credit

1664
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,320
Speaker 5: for anyone unable to use the new member credit to

1665
01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:36,040
Speaker 5: all single game ticket buyers, regardless of whether Messi was

1666
01:13:36,080 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 5: able to appear or not. You know, I get it.

1667
01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:41,479
Speaker 5: People got the games because the stars are they going

1668
01:13:41,560 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 5: to do this right now? If in the WNBA, if

1669
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:46,920
Speaker 5: Caitlin Clark is hurt, or she doesn't play, or she

1670
01:13:47,080 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 5: look like she didn't play in the three point deal.

1671
01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:52,800
Speaker 5: I mean, people who bought tickets for that, are they

1672
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:55,040
Speaker 5: going to get their money back? It shouldn't be that way.

1673
01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:57,719
Speaker 5: That's just the way sports off. People get hurt, people

1674
01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,920
Speaker 5: don't play, and you go to the game for the game.

1675
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:03,320
Speaker 5: I understand one individual can make you want to buy

1676
01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:05,800
Speaker 5: a ticket, but if they're not there, suck it up.

1677
01:14:05,800 --> 01:14:06,800
Speaker 2: There's just the way it is.

1678
01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:09,559
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that's what it is. Suck it up.

1679
01:14:09,600 --> 01:14:11,200
Speaker 6: There's just the way it is. And you have to

1680
01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:13,720
Speaker 6: be you got to stand firm on that. If not, man,

1681
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 6: you're just always find a way to play. Caate to

1682
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:19,400
Speaker 6: the fans, and yes, the customer is always right to

1683
01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:22,080
Speaker 6: a point. And you just have to understand when you

1684
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 6: buy these tickets, it's not a guaranteed that you can

1685
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:27,000
Speaker 6: see your favorite player, because what happens if you do

1686
01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,280
Speaker 6: show up and MESSI gets hurt the first minute of

1687
01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:31,200
Speaker 6: the game, Like, do you want to give them their

1688
01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:33,240
Speaker 6: money back then? Because in essence they said and watched

1689
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:36,200
Speaker 6: the whole game without really seeing him all of that stuff.

1690
01:14:36,640 --> 01:14:39,160
Speaker 6: You know, you can't control everything. And so you just

1691
01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 6: tell them when you buy a ticket. That's what it is.

1692
01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:43,599
Speaker 5: I have never heard of anything like this in my life.

1693
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,439
Speaker 5: But looking to go see a Yankee game and Judges

1694
01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 5: isn't playing, do you get your money back? I mean,

1695
01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:50,360
Speaker 5: I it doesn't work that way. It shouldn't work that way.

1696
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,599
Speaker 5: And you know it's going to transcend over the other

1697
01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 5: sports in the other leagues, and I hope it doesn't.

1698
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:55,960
Speaker 2: I really don't.

1699
01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:57,960
Speaker 5: Hey, if I'm driving the Green Bay back in the

1700
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:01,120
Speaker 5: day and Bucket Brooks wasn't playing, I'd want my money back.

1701
01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 5: How's that I want my money back?

1702
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:03,680
Speaker 3: Of them?

1749
01:16:57,560 --> 01:17:00,320

1759
01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:28,720

1760
01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:33,960
Speaker 13: plus one thirty one versus Colin Osbourne like Ozzie minus

1761

Speaker 7: Yes, okay, cool.

1766
01:17:45,040 --> 01:17:47,160
Speaker 5: Although I'll tell you I don't think Osborne is is

1767
01:17:47,160 --> 01:17:50,879
Speaker 5: a name that will be kind of going with this sports.

1768
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:54,960
Speaker 2: I just don't think one would be playing the darts really. Yeah,

1769
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:56,160
Speaker 2: more of the loss.

1770
01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:57,960
Speaker 13: You take a bite of a dove and then throw

1771
01:17:58,000 --> 01:17:59,680
Speaker 13: a dart what are you talking about?

1772
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:01,800
Speaker 3: That's exactly what.

1773
01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:04,839
Speaker 2: The logic hasn't worked out well anyway, so we probably won't.

1774
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,639
Speaker 13: Okay, So we're gonna head over to the World of Tennis,

1775
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:11,000
Speaker 13: the Woman's Tennis Association. We're gonna do doubles. I'm feeling

1776
01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:14,960
Speaker 13: kind of doubly. So I have Anna Bondar and Olga

1777
01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:22,320
Speaker 13: Dana levetchk at minus one thirteen versus Cattery, Zena Pizza

1779
01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 13: minus one sixteen.

1780
01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:28,559
Speaker 2: Andy, Okay.

1781
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,000
Speaker 5: The only reason I'm going with Anna and Olga. Look,

1782
01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:33,439
Speaker 5: I can't pronounce the other names. It's the only reason,

1783
01:18:33,560 --> 01:18:35,800
Speaker 5: believe me. So let me see if Bucky could do it.

1784
01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:39,479
Speaker 6: Oh, I would have to hear it again because it's

1785
01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:41,479
Speaker 6: soaked on PHONEX. I would have to follow the finals.

1786
01:18:41,520 --> 01:18:42,800
Speaker 6: I've had to sound it out and do it, so

1787
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:43,639
Speaker 6: I'll have to hear it again.

1788
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:49,440
Speaker 13: Katter is the Zena, Pier, Peter and then Fanny Stoler.

1789
01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:54,479
Speaker 8: Okay, Peter and Fanny. That as I said, Peter and Fanny,

1790
01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:55,120
Speaker 8: that was easy.

1791
01:18:55,160 --> 01:18:56,880
Speaker 2: You're killing me. You're killing me small.

1792
01:18:56,920 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 5: So I have a lot of composed WNB All Star

1793

1795
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,679
Speaker 13: Okay, So we're gonna go to the National Rugby League

1799
01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:22,400
Speaker 8: Bucky, Oh, the Queensland Cowboys. Cowboys can't go wrong with

1800
01:19:22,439 --> 01:19:24,080
Speaker 8: America's team, can't go.

Speaker 3: Wrong to you.

1802
01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:28,960
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with the Sharks because I think they're tougher.

1803
01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:31,599
Speaker 5: I just think a shark to me, Yeah, I think

1804
01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:34,599
Speaker 5: when player has a certain uniform on a certain team

1805
01:19:34,600 --> 01:19:36,600
Speaker 5: with a certain name, they kind of live up to

1806
01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:37,719
Speaker 5: the building of that name.

1807
01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,840
Speaker 2: If you're a shark, you're tough. So I think I

Speaker 2: got this one.

1809
01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:43,280

01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:19,639
Speaker 2: Is Claire a team or is clear someone's name?

1847
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:22,439
Speaker 7: There is the team Claire, but it is it is

1848
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:24,320
Speaker 7: a name as well, right.

1849
01:21:24,720 --> 01:21:26,760
Speaker 5: So they named the team and the owner of the

1850
01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:29,040
Speaker 5: team has a daughter of our name of Claire. I'm

1851
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:31,320
Speaker 5: sure that's the reason why I never heard of the

1852
01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:33,200
Speaker 5: team named Claire. I'll go with Claire.

1853
01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:35,519
Speaker 7: There we go, so we'll see what happens next week.

1881
01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:50,360
Speaker 8: to the conversation.

1882
01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:51,320
Speaker 2: Here we go.

1883
01:22:51,479 --> 01:22:54,559
Speaker 5: Now, I have a question for you because I hear

1884
01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:57,160
Speaker 5: these stories all the time and it kind of draws

1885
01:22:57,200 --> 01:23:02,360
Speaker 5: me nuts. How important on numbers for NFL players? I

1886
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:05,760
Speaker 5: know they've changed because back in the day several years ago,

1887
01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:09,240
Speaker 5: it was really that certain positions how to wear certain numbers.

1888
01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 5: In the NFL, you know, quarterbacks usually we wore either

1889
01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:16,439
Speaker 5: single digits or maybe up to high teams, and that

1890
01:23:16,560 --> 01:23:19,599
Speaker 5: was basically then running backs or whatever may be. Now

1891
01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:21,920
Speaker 5: it's wide open. You know, why did they change and

1892
01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:24,080
Speaker 5: why are number is such a big deal for these players?

1893
01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:27,360
Speaker 8: What happened? You ran out of numbers?

1894
01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:30,759
Speaker 6: Okay, So as you're pointing out, like there were numbers

1895
01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:33,680
Speaker 6: for certain positions that you had to stay within. So

1896
01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:37,400
Speaker 6: for white House, it used to be eighties were number,

1897
01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:42,480
Speaker 6: and then they started allowing you could wear numbers above ten.

1898
01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:46,080
Speaker 6: And so you saw, like with more wide receivers in

1899
01:23:46,160 --> 01:23:48,400
Speaker 6: the league, more teams carrying wide receivers, you just ran

1900
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,880
Speaker 6: out numbers really quickly, so they had to open it up.

1901
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:54,240
Speaker 6: The reason why they've changed now is in college is

1902
01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:57,880
Speaker 6: wide open. You have big guys wearing zero, you have

1903
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:01,120
Speaker 6: small guys wearing high numbers, and those things. There's a

1904
01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:03,479
Speaker 6: part of allowing the players to retain their swag.

1905
01:24:03,760 --> 01:24:04,759
Speaker 8: They open it up.

1906
01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:07,400
Speaker 6: And allow people to be able to do anything and everything,

1907
01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:10,679
Speaker 6: with the exception of the offensive alignment. Because what happens

1908
01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:12,599
Speaker 6: is if you have an office alignment with a number

1909
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,759
Speaker 6: that doesn't resemble like I think offense alignment have anywhere

1910
01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:22,280
Speaker 6: from fifty to seventy nine, and so if you have

1911
01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:26,080
Speaker 6: office alignment out of their number, that would be chaos

1912
01:24:26,080 --> 01:24:26,759
Speaker 6: trying to figure.

1913
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:29,760
Speaker 8: Out who's eligible, who's ineligible, and all those things. But yeah,

1914
01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:30,439
Speaker 8: they've opened it up.

1915
01:24:30,479 --> 01:24:33,200
Speaker 6: They made it more fun because everyone can wear single

1916
01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:35,439
Speaker 6: digit numbers, low numbers, all of this stuff.

1917
01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:39,200
Speaker 5: Okay, Now the question I have is, if you're a coach,

1918
01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:41,559
Speaker 5: let's go back to the college level.

1919
01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:43,320
Speaker 2: Off I everybody a little easier. In college?

1920
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,400
Speaker 5: Do they hand out the numbers to players? Ask the

1921
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 5: coach this is the number? I'd like, How does one

1922
01:24:49,760 --> 01:24:52,240
Speaker 5: get a number one or a number zero? I mean,

1923
01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:54,840
Speaker 5: there's a good chance I would think that if you're

1924
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:57,479
Speaker 5: a scrub, if you're a backup lineman, you're not going

1925
01:24:57,520 --> 01:24:59,519
Speaker 5: to get number one. There's no doubt, mind you, they're

1926
01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:01,639
Speaker 5: not going to get But you know someone who wears

1927
01:25:01,680 --> 01:25:04,000
Speaker 5: number one, probably a quarterback or a leader of the team.

1928
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:06,360
Speaker 2: And how do you get number zero? How does that?

1929
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:08,920
Speaker 5: Does a coach hand it out? Now they are requested

1930
01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:10,479
Speaker 5: by the players, what's the deal?

1931
01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:12,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, you had to ask for it.

1932
01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:15,920
Speaker 6: Zero just came into play last year the NFL open

1933
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,639
Speaker 6: it up and allow for teams to utilize zero.

1934
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:22,000
Speaker 8: I remember Calvin really grabbing zero for the Jacks. Yes,

1935
01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:22,880
Speaker 8: it's another number.

1936
01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:24,400
Speaker 6: I go all the way back to I think it

1937
01:25:24,439 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 6: was Ken Burrow's with the Houston Oilers who used to

1938
01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:27,120
Speaker 6: wear double zero.

1939
01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:31,200
Speaker 8: It looks it's a part of the thing.

1940
01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:34,960
Speaker 6: And everyone knows that single digits signified you being a

1941
01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:37,559
Speaker 6: ball at whatever position. So if you elect to wear

1942
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:40,280
Speaker 6: a single digit, it means that man in your mind

1943
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:42,680
Speaker 6: or somebody's mind, they think you were balling. And so

1944
01:25:42,720 --> 01:25:45,280
Speaker 6: then you got to go live up to or play

1945
01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:48,320
Speaker 6: up to the hype that proceeds you. When when the

1946
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:49,440
Speaker 6: number thing comes.

1947
01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:51,120
Speaker 5: Well, I'm gonna go back on time because I remember

1948
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:53,880
Speaker 5: Jim Otto double Oatto set it for the for the

1949
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,599
Speaker 5: Raiders at the time, for then Oakland Raiders, he wore

1950
01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:59,040
Speaker 5: double Oh, that was a big deal. Who just recently

1951
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:02,560
Speaker 5: passed away. I think he did Gymato, Yeah, remember.

1952
01:26:02,280 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 8: Him, Great Raider? Yeah, Great Raider wore double zero. One

1953
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:06,599
Speaker 8: of many.

1954
01:26:06,640 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 6: And you're seeing like players really identify with numbers. I mean,

1955
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:12,280
Speaker 6: you talk about the importance of what we see. People

1956
01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:16,720
Speaker 6: pay big money, big money to be able to have

1957
01:26:16,840 --> 01:26:20,439
Speaker 6: their number, because look, it's synonymous. Some people wear their

1958
01:26:20,479 --> 01:26:22,120
Speaker 6: number from the time they went literal league all the

1959
01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:24,040
Speaker 6: way up. For me, twenty two was my number for

1960
01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:27,200
Speaker 6: the majority of my career little.

1961
01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:29,040
Speaker 2: And that's why Kaylen Clark we was twenty two because

1962
01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:29,519
Speaker 2: you woren't.

1963
01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:33,040
Speaker 6: Maybe she made deep down the side, found some old

1964
01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:35,280
Speaker 6: VHS S tapes and was like, you know what, I

1965
01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:36,040
Speaker 6: like that twenty two.

1966
01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:36,720
Speaker 8: I want to wear that.

1967
01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 6: I think I think I think I'm a pattern my

1968
01:26:39,040 --> 01:26:41,559
Speaker 6: career after him. I think that's maybe she did say that.

1969
01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:42,880
Speaker 6: Maybe that's how it went down.

1970
01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,160
Speaker 2: Well, we'll have to find that. Well, we'll check into that.

1971
01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,680
Speaker 5: But I always thought maybe on way off basie, I

1972
01:26:47,720 --> 01:26:50,400
Speaker 5: always feel like in college, you know, the players go

1973
01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:52,639
Speaker 5: through the equipment manager and the guy says, what size

1974
01:26:52,640 --> 01:26:55,360
Speaker 5: are you? Boom, here's your uniform. You know, they just

1975
01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:57,680
Speaker 5: did they hand it out to you. So it's more

1976
01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:00,120
Speaker 5: complicated than that. In other words, there could be on

1977
01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:03,519
Speaker 5: the college level, you were in North Carolina, did someone

1978
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:05,680
Speaker 5: else warnt twenty two when you were there and you

1979
01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:07,920
Speaker 5: got to argue for that or how does it work?

1980
01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:13,320
Speaker 6: Well, it was retired because Charlie Tchucchie Justice War twenty two,

1981
01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:16,160
Speaker 6: so it wasn't available. So I wore number seven, and

1982
01:27:16,240 --> 01:27:20,040
Speaker 6: number seven to me was a significant number because it

1983
01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:22,120
Speaker 6: was a single digit number. It's kind of like the

1984
01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:24,640
Speaker 6: perfect number for what I wanted to represent, and so

1985
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:28,160
Speaker 6: I loved it. But you do have to have, like, look,

1986
01:27:28,200 --> 01:27:30,840
Speaker 6: the best person to have a relationship with in the building.

1987
01:27:30,840 --> 01:27:32,960
Speaker 6: You gotta have a great relationship with the equipment manager.

1988
01:27:33,280 --> 01:27:35,360
Speaker 6: And that's because, man, if you want to be taken

1989
01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:36,639
Speaker 6: care of, you got to find a way to take

1990
01:27:36,640 --> 01:27:38,759
Speaker 6: care of the equipment managers so you can get those things,

1991
01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:41,800
Speaker 6: whether it's your number, whether it's the new shoes, all

1992
01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:43,000
Speaker 6: the shiny little stuff.

1993
01:27:43,680 --> 01:27:45,559
Speaker 8: It's a big part of it.

1994
01:27:46,760 --> 01:27:48,880
Speaker 5: And why I bring up this number of conversation because

1995
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:50,720
Speaker 5: people are saying, what are you talking about With the

1996
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:54,040
Speaker 5: MVP of the National Football League right now, Lamar Jackson,

1997
01:27:54,520 --> 01:27:58,080
Speaker 5: he's challenging the Hall of Fame quarterback Troy Aikman the

1998
01:27:58,240 --> 01:28:00,639
Speaker 5: use of their shared number eight numb because they both

1999
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:02,960
Speaker 5: wore a number eight. He still wears number eight they

2000
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:06,400
Speaker 5: share and they's going to the US Patent and Trademark Office.

2001
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:09,000
Speaker 5: He's complaining this is according to some record just the

2002
01:28:09,080 --> 01:28:12,920
Speaker 5: other day. Now, Jackson he owns or has applied for

2003
01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:16,880
Speaker 5: several trademarks using the number in various phrases, and he

2004
01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:19,639
Speaker 5: says that Troy Aikman's attempt to use the number eight

2005
01:28:19,920 --> 01:28:23,639
Speaker 5: on apparel and bags would be and I'm courting him now,

2006
01:28:24,120 --> 01:28:27,360
Speaker 5: likely to cause confusion or cause a mistake or to

2007
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:31,840
Speaker 5: deceive the purchasing public as to whether they're buying products

2008
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:36,120
Speaker 5: from Jackson or Aikman's company. And this is from Jackson's attorney.

2009
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:38,200
Speaker 5: I get it because you know, right now, when you

2010
01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:40,559
Speaker 5: think of number eight, if you're an NFL fan, you

2011
01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 5: don't think of Troy Aikman he was yesterday's news.

2012
01:28:42,800 --> 01:28:44,759
Speaker 2: You think of Lamar Jackson. Is't that correct?

2013
01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:47,080
Speaker 5: But I don't know why Jackson's complaining There should be

2014
01:28:47,160 --> 01:28:49,080
Speaker 5: Troy Aikman doing the complaining, right.

2015
01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:52,600
Speaker 6: I mean, I guess I think it's all kind of

2016
01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:55,080
Speaker 6: a little bit above my head. I'm trying to figure

2017
01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,720
Speaker 6: out why they're arguing over a number that no one

2018
01:28:58,439 --> 01:29:02,280
Speaker 6: in essence owns. But I do see what you, Lamar

2019
01:29:02,360 --> 01:29:04,880
Speaker 6: Jackson's trying to make some money off of being able

2020
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 6: to use number eight with his name in those things.

2021
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:09,960
Speaker 6: I don't know what Troy Aikman necessarily has with the

2022
01:29:10,040 --> 01:29:13,160
Speaker 6: number eight, But we'll see what happens when the challenges

2023
01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:14,320
Speaker 6: issued out in court.

2024
01:29:14,520 --> 01:29:17,080
Speaker 5: Okay, Jackson and Aikman, they say, wore the number eight

2025
01:29:17,200 --> 01:29:20,360
Speaker 5: for the entirety of their professional careers. Aikman wore number

2026
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:23,519
Speaker 5: eight at UCLA, Jackson were the number at Louisville. Aikman

2027
01:29:23,560 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 5: played twelve seasons for the Dallas Cowboys as a quarterback. Now,

2028
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 5: obviously it was a Monday night football analyst. Jackson's applied

2029
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:33,240
Speaker 5: for trademarks and multiple usage of the number eight, including

2030
01:29:33,320 --> 01:29:37,000
Speaker 5: ERA eight by Lamar Jackson Era eight You ate yet,

2031
01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:40,679
Speaker 5: and logo of his styles white dog, Okay, a wild dog.

2032
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:43,479
Speaker 5: Here's my take, And if I'm with Lamar Jackson said.

2033
01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:46,720
Speaker 2: Look, you know what, switch switch jerseys?

2034
01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:49,519
Speaker 5: Why if you switch jerseys and change your number, you

2035
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:52,320
Speaker 5: open up a who a whole new merchandise sale?

2036
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:54,479
Speaker 2: You really do? People are crazy?

2037
01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:58,400
Speaker 5: People buy jerseys of players, right, And everybody who's a

2038
01:29:58,439 --> 01:30:01,320
Speaker 5: Baltimore raven fan and likes to both the Ravens and

2039
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:04,519
Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson probably has brought or wants to buy a

2040
01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:08,479
Speaker 5: Lamar Jackson eight jersey. Well, if he's got the merchandise. Now,

2041
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:11,400
Speaker 5: if he goes and says, look, let Troy Jackson, let

2042
01:30:11,439 --> 01:30:14,360
Speaker 5: Troit Aikman have the number eight, I'm gonna switch.

2043
01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:16,679
Speaker 2: I want number nine. I want number nine.

2044
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:18,960
Speaker 5: Then all of a sudden that creates a whole new

2045
01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:22,360
Speaker 5: merchandise sell for him, and now they're going to buy

2046
01:30:22,360 --> 01:30:24,320
Speaker 5: the number nine Jersey. I don't think it's that big

2047
01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:25,439
Speaker 5: of a deal. Let him do that.

2048
01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:28,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I think you have to the kind of

2049
01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:32,000
Speaker 6: way to pros and cons unless he's running a pony

2050
01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:34,719
Speaker 6: of big money for it. You know, some people feel

2051
01:30:34,760 --> 01:30:38,040
Speaker 6: so strongly about the number they pay, you know, significant

2052
01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:39,200
Speaker 6: sums of cash.

2053
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:40,200
Speaker 8: To retain that money.

2054
01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:44,240
Speaker 6: I would ever, but it's one of those things that

2055
01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:47,200
Speaker 6: has always been a part of like locker room culture

2056
01:30:47,240 --> 01:30:51,439
Speaker 6: and lore, that people will pay significant sums of money

2057
01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:53,800
Speaker 6: to retain a number that has been nearing due to

2058
01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:54,479
Speaker 6: the heart forever.

2059
01:30:54,920 --> 01:30:57,240
Speaker 5: I think it's to me. I think there's much ado

2060
01:30:57,320 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 5: about nothing. I just wanted to really get some insight

2061
01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:03,759
Speaker 5: information on players and how they get their numbers, basically

2062
01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:04,920
Speaker 5: either a college or approach.

2063
01:31:05,360 --> 01:31:06,720
Speaker 2: But I got a heavy duty.

2064
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:09,240
Speaker 5: Story for you right now, all right, And this is

2065
01:31:09,320 --> 01:31:12,799
Speaker 5: kind of a strange story about how far a coach

2066
01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:15,479
Speaker 5: can go or how far a coach should go. All right,

2067
01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:19,200
Speaker 5: I'm talking about Utah State. Utah State University, their athletic

2068
01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:21,719
Speaker 5: director and the University of the school, the school president.

2069
01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:24,360
Speaker 5: They told their football coach, Blake Anderson, that he was

2070
01:31:24,400 --> 01:31:28,200
Speaker 5: fired the other day. Why because the coach wanted to

2071
01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:32,960
Speaker 5: personally investigate the circumstances of a player's domestic violence arrest.

2072
01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:35,240
Speaker 5: All right, and he was fired. He was fired like

2073
01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 5: on Friday. Anderson, the coach, the former coach, now, he

2074
01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:43,519
Speaker 5: contacted the girlfriend and roommate of a Utah State football

2075
01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:46,799
Speaker 5: player in April. This is back in April twenty twenty three,

2076
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:50,280
Speaker 5: after he learned that the player had been arrested due

2077
01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:55,360
Speaker 5: to an alleged domestic abuse incident, according to an investigation commissioned.

2078
01:31:54,840 --> 01:31:55,640
Speaker 2: By the university.

2079
01:31:55,720 --> 01:32:00,120
Speaker 5: So basically, what they're saying is that the coach and

2080
01:32:00,160 --> 01:32:03,639
Speaker 5: above and beyond his duty. He tried to basically, I guess,

2081
01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:08,559
Speaker 5: save his player star player, doing a fact finding mission

2082
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:11,479
Speaker 5: to determine if the player should be suspended or if

2083
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:14,240
Speaker 5: they needed to take any further action. And basically he

2084
01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:17,040
Speaker 5: should have stayed in his own lane and not do.

2085
01:32:17,120 --> 01:32:17,840
Speaker 2: Work like that.

2086
01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:20,200
Speaker 5: I mean, he shouldn't be doing that. I mean, I

2087
01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:23,320
Speaker 5: guess a coach obviously want to protect your player. You

2088
01:32:23,320 --> 01:32:25,559
Speaker 5: want to do some investigation on your play, but that's

2089
01:32:25,600 --> 01:32:28,960
Speaker 5: not your job to find out what's going on in

2090
01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:32,439
Speaker 5: an alleged domestic abuse case. All right, and it says

2091
01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:35,040
Speaker 5: here out of Utah State went on the website to

2092
01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:38,320
Speaker 5: find out what's going on here. Utah State policy states

2093
01:32:38,360 --> 01:32:42,960
Speaker 5: that all coaches and administrators in the athletic department must

2094
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:46,800
Speaker 5: submit a report about any incidents of sexual misconduct to

2095
01:32:46,840 --> 01:32:50,240
Speaker 5: the school's Title Line office within twenty four hours of

2096
01:32:50,320 --> 01:32:53,000
Speaker 5: learning about them. The university's led it to the coach.

2097
01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:56,759
Speaker 5: Blake Anderson said, domestic violence incidents fall under this category,

2098
01:32:56,760 --> 01:32:58,880
Speaker 5: and that's why he was fired. I'm not so certain

2099
01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:01,400
Speaker 5: he should have been fired. I mean, that's pretty heavy, dute.

2100
01:33:01,400 --> 01:33:03,320
Speaker 5: He just laid a hatchet down and fired a guy

2101
01:33:03,360 --> 01:33:05,360
Speaker 5: over it. But I understand what he's trying to do.

2102
01:33:05,800 --> 01:33:09,200
Speaker 5: He's trying to protect his player and see what exactly happened.

2103
01:33:09,320 --> 01:33:11,000
Speaker 5: Have you ever heard of anything like this at all

2104
01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:15,559
Speaker 5: going on in the college campus. It's kind of crazy, really,

2105
01:33:18,800 --> 01:33:20,400
Speaker 5: how a coach to just go out of his way

2106
01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:23,880
Speaker 5: to do some investigative work on a player who was

2107
01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:29,760
Speaker 5: alleged in a domestic violence abuse situation. Kind of nuts, h.

2108
01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:34,559
Speaker 6: I mean here it zapped out for a minute, repeat

2109
01:33:34,600 --> 01:33:36,920
Speaker 6: the last part of what you said, Andy my union

2110
01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:37,599
Speaker 6: a half for a minute.

2111
01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:41,040
Speaker 5: Have you ever heard of a coach really getting zapped

2112
01:33:41,280 --> 01:33:43,920
Speaker 5: for doing something like this, trying to defend a star

2113
01:33:44,080 --> 01:33:47,719
Speaker 5: player who was involved in an alleged domestic abuse incident,

2114
01:33:48,080 --> 01:33:50,840
Speaker 5: and the coach just went and did his own investigation

2115
01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:51,519
Speaker 5: on the case.

2116
01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:54,799
Speaker 8: Yeah, So in reading about that, what appear happened?

2117
01:33:54,800 --> 01:33:57,320
Speaker 6: Like Blake Anderson made a couple of phone calls after

2118
01:33:57,400 --> 01:34:00,280
Speaker 6: he got wind of the incident, called the roommate and

2119
01:34:00,320 --> 01:34:02,720
Speaker 6: then try to get in contact with a girlfriend just

2120
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:04,120
Speaker 6: to see what's going on, because you're trying to make

2121
01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:07,559
Speaker 6: a decision whether to suspend a player right away. But

2122
01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,960
Speaker 6: by Leak policy, he is supposed to contact the university

2123
01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:15,639
Speaker 6: before he does anything on his own. They also said

2124
01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:17,439
Speaker 6: that there were some things in there baked in with

2125
01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:19,880
Speaker 6: the title line. In those things that you have to

2126
01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:23,840
Speaker 6: go with the proper procedure and protocols and those things.

2127
01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:27,040
Speaker 6: I'll say this, I understand procedures and those things, but

2128
01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:29,360
Speaker 6: I also feel like sometimes a coach is in a

2129
01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:32,600
Speaker 6: bad situation in terms of he's trying to make the

2130
01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:35,719
Speaker 6: best decision that he can to reflect the core values

2131
01:34:35,720 --> 01:34:38,479
Speaker 6: of what the team represents. And so if you are

2132
01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:41,680
Speaker 6: a no nonsense guy one that's trying to build a

2133
01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:44,080
Speaker 6: team on character, where you want when one of your

2134
01:34:44,080 --> 01:34:46,800
Speaker 6: players is involved in the incident to met out some

2135
01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,680
Speaker 6: punishment to let everyone know that you don't condone that

2136
01:34:49,760 --> 01:34:52,400
Speaker 6: kind of behavior within the program. The issue that you

2137
01:34:52,479 --> 01:34:55,640
Speaker 6: have is everyone has to work together, So coaches have

2138
01:34:55,680 --> 01:34:57,840
Speaker 6: to work but administrators to make sure that they are

2139
01:34:57,920 --> 01:35:01,000
Speaker 6: kind of buttoned up. And it appeared that Anderson went

2140
01:35:01,040 --> 01:35:04,760
Speaker 6: on this part of it solo and didn't contact administration,

2141
01:35:05,200 --> 01:35:08,400
Speaker 6: and ultimately he is going to lose his job because

2142
01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:11,960
Speaker 6: of policy and procedures as opposed to what his one

2143
01:35:12,000 --> 01:35:12,760
Speaker 6: lost record was.

2144
01:35:13,120 --> 01:35:15,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, and Anderson told the investigators that he didn't know

2145
01:35:15,800 --> 01:35:18,519
Speaker 5: he had to report the arrest of the university's Office

2146
01:35:18,520 --> 01:35:22,800
Speaker 5: of Equity because it occurred off campus. You know, I

2147
01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:24,800
Speaker 5: guess there's a lot of rules you really need to

2148
01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:28,160
Speaker 5: learn and read prior to being hired as a coach.

2149
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:31,680
Speaker 2: But to me, I don't know if you do that

2150
01:35:31,720 --> 01:35:32,160
Speaker 2: on your own.

2151
01:35:32,200 --> 01:35:35,160
Speaker 5: I will say this, if they had won a major

2152
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:37,680
Speaker 5: bowl game, he wouldn't have been fired. If he had

2153
01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:40,559
Speaker 5: a tremendous winning record, he wouldn't have been fired. And

2154
01:35:40,600 --> 01:35:43,800
Speaker 5: they came back and said, well, you know, honestly, the

2155
01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:47,200
Speaker 5: fact that you had a poor graduation rate as well,

2156
01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:49,720
Speaker 5: and they said that the Utah States team had one

2157
01:35:49,720 --> 01:35:53,120
Speaker 5: of the twelve lowest scores among Division I schools on

2158
01:35:53,160 --> 01:35:56,439
Speaker 5: the NCAA's Academic Progress Rate during the past two years.

2159
01:35:56,600 --> 01:35:59,280
Speaker 5: That didn't help me either. So basically they had this

2160
01:35:59,360 --> 01:36:01,759
Speaker 5: deal and they were waiting in the wings to fire

2161
01:36:01,800 --> 01:36:05,040
Speaker 5: him anyway. So this just basically, you know, just let

2162
01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:07,800
Speaker 5: everything fall down and they want them out, you know,

2163
01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:10,439
Speaker 5: and they couldn't find a real good reason. Now they

2164
01:36:10,479 --> 01:36:12,639
Speaker 5: got the reason he's gone. You know, as I say,

2165
01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:14,759
Speaker 5: if he was winning, he wouldn't have been fired.

2166
01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 6: This is about money, and it was about being able

2167
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:25,160
Speaker 6: to try to fire someone with cause so you can

2168
01:36:25,200 --> 01:36:28,840
Speaker 6: avoid the buyout, right, that's the only reason. That's why

2169
01:36:28,880 --> 01:36:31,720
Speaker 6: you bring up all those other things. That's why you

2170
01:36:31,840 --> 01:36:34,639
Speaker 6: kind of factor that in there. But it certainly didn't

2171
01:36:34,640 --> 01:36:39,840
Speaker 6: appear to be a thing that was just about, you know,

2172
01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:42,200
Speaker 6: the investigation of what it appeared that there was so

2173
01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:47,280
Speaker 6: much more involved in it besides just the football part,

2174
01:36:47,360 --> 01:36:48,280
Speaker 6: the performance for it.

2175
01:36:48,720 --> 01:36:51,080
Speaker 5: And this story really did not make a lot of

2176
01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:53,559
Speaker 5: national news. I'm sure it's big news in the state

2177
01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:56,320
Speaker 5: of Utah, but as far as national news, it really

2178
01:36:56,320 --> 01:36:58,800
Speaker 5: didn't make that big of a deal. But you're so right,

2179
01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:01,960
Speaker 5: because now he fired with cause, what does that mean

2180
01:37:02,200 --> 01:37:04,480
Speaker 5: they don't have to pay out the remainder of his contract.

2181
01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:07,240
Speaker 5: If he was not fired with cause, you know, then

2182
01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:08,960
Speaker 5: all of a sudden he's leaving.

2183
01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:10,559
Speaker 2: He gets some money, the whole deal.

2184
01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:12,800
Speaker 5: Now he's gonna have a difficult time getting another job

2185
01:37:12,840 --> 01:37:15,600
Speaker 5: as well, unless he's buddy buddy with somebody gets a

2186
01:37:15,640 --> 01:37:17,840
Speaker 5: job as an assistant somewhere. But it is kind of

2187
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:19,880
Speaker 5: late in the game anyway as far as getting a

2188
01:37:19,880 --> 01:37:20,800
Speaker 5: college football job.

2189
01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:23,960
Speaker 2: So again, I just think that again.

2190
01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:26,599
Speaker 5: If you're in doubt, if you have a question about

2191
01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:31,080
Speaker 5: any story whatsoever, is usually about money, right, I mean,

2192
01:37:31,120 --> 01:37:33,719
Speaker 5: money is usually the root of the evil of every

2193
01:37:33,800 --> 01:37:36,839
Speaker 5: story out there. Why a guy gets hired, why gets fired,

2194
01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:39,760
Speaker 5: It's all about money. Everything traces back to money. Even

2195
01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:43,519
Speaker 5: we told Ayuk earlier today Brandon at to receive it

2196
01:37:43,560 --> 01:37:46,160
Speaker 5: for the forty nine ers. It's all about money. It's

2197
01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:48,240
Speaker 5: not about his playing a skill set or anything else.

2198
01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:51,240
Speaker 5: Everything is about money. It's all about money. That's basically it.

2199
01:37:51,400 --> 01:37:53,880
Speaker 2: We move on, all right. He's Bucky Brooks.

Speaker 4: guys up to. I'm just getting my morning exercise in

Speaker 5: Bucket Brooks, So you two guys could go for a

2254
01:40:24,439 --> 01:40:25,080
Speaker 5: little bit here.

2255
01:40:26,160 --> 01:40:29,080
Speaker 6: Hey, Tim, thanks so much for coming on. Look, I

2256
01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:30,920
Speaker 6: got to talk to you, like as a as a

2257
01:40:30,960 --> 01:40:34,639
Speaker 6: former receiver, what do you think about the way the league.

2258
01:40:34,479 --> 01:40:37,880
Speaker 8: Has opened up since your playing days? It's all about passing.

2259
01:40:37,880 --> 01:40:40,400
Speaker 8: You're seeing so many receivers go over a thousand yard mark.

2260
01:40:40,640 --> 01:40:42,920
Speaker 8: What is the difference when you look at the game today?

2261
01:40:43,600 --> 01:40:46,519
Speaker 4: Well, number one, the rules, the rule changes has made it.

2262
01:40:47,200 --> 01:40:49,160
Speaker 4: I'm going to say a lot easier, as you know,

2263
01:40:49,280 --> 01:40:51,400
Speaker 4: on the wide receiver, as far as getting off the ball,

2264
01:40:51,439 --> 01:40:55,240
Speaker 4: as far as building this stats that at the end

2265
01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:57,880
Speaker 4: of the year you look where a receiver will have

2266
01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,600
Speaker 4: a thousand yards. But I guess I don't want to

2267
01:41:00,600 --> 01:41:02,800
Speaker 4: start to anybody up because I think they do a

2268
01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:05,920
Speaker 4: wonderful job, but I don't think it has the impact

2269
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:09,320
Speaker 4: of say the eighties, nineties and even early two thousands.

2270
01:41:09,520 --> 01:41:12,240
Speaker 4: They're just not impact plays. And of course they play

2271
01:41:12,400 --> 01:41:16,080
Speaker 4: more games now, so it's just a it's a different game.

2272
01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:19,599
Speaker 4: I think it's a more entertaining game. Don't get me wrong, however,

2273
01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:23,639
Speaker 4: but if you're specifically talking about the wide receiver position,

2274
01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:28,760
Speaker 4: you know, the gloves, the like I said, the rules,

2275
01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:31,240
Speaker 4: the ability that the wide receivers can kind of flow

2276
01:41:31,360 --> 01:41:35,240
Speaker 4: free off the ball. Obviously those are going to produce

2277
01:41:35,720 --> 01:41:37,519
Speaker 4: some results where there were going to be a lot

2278
01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:40,320
Speaker 4: more points scored and the fans will really appreciate the

2279
01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:41,200
Speaker 4: game a little bit more.

2280
01:41:41,760 --> 01:41:42,720
Speaker 2: Tim. I'm going to ask you this.

2281
01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:45,240
Speaker 5: The Bengals just the other day ended their running back

2282
01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:47,719
Speaker 5: fumer running back Corey dillont in a ring of honor.

2283
01:41:48,120 --> 01:41:49,280
Speaker 2: How surprised were with that?

2284
01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:52,519
Speaker 5: Decision, and now does this open up a ticket maybe

2285
01:41:52,520 --> 01:41:54,320
Speaker 5: for him to can because he's got the numbers, he

2286
01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:56,559
Speaker 5: really does. I was surprised because he was not one

2287
01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:59,599
Speaker 5: of the more popular Bengals because the way he ended

2288
01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:01,680
Speaker 5: his career in Cincinnati.

2289
01:42:02,320 --> 01:42:04,439
Speaker 4: Well, you know, that ring of honor and all, like

2290
01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:09,519
Speaker 4: a lot of other things, it's it's a subjective popularity contest,

2291
01:42:09,560 --> 01:42:11,360
Speaker 4: if you will. And you know, when I see that,

2292
01:42:11,439 --> 01:42:14,040
Speaker 4: you know, you always want to congratulate the person that's

2293
01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:16,960
Speaker 4: that's being honored, that has received that honor. But then

2294
01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:19,920
Speaker 4: you look at it. You compare James Brooks, who in

2295
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:24,120
Speaker 4: my very very very strong opinion is the most underappreciated,

2296
01:42:24,760 --> 01:42:29,599
Speaker 4: under undervalued running back and or player in Bengal history,

2297
01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:31,960
Speaker 4: and uh, you know, you look at that and you go, okay,

2298
01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:34,880
Speaker 4: what does it take for Brooks to get there? I mean,

2299
01:42:34,960 --> 01:42:38,000
Speaker 4: considering obviously he is a he was just a top

2300
01:42:38,040 --> 01:42:40,519
Speaker 4: dog in pounds of town, probably the best player I

2301
01:42:40,600 --> 01:42:43,360
Speaker 4: know played it for the Bengals, but one top five

2302
01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:46,719
Speaker 4: in the NFL. So but you know, cadus to Corey

2303
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:50,479
Speaker 4: well deserved. Like you said, it was surprising because he

2304
01:42:50,600 --> 01:42:53,439
Speaker 4: wasn't one of the more popular players. And when I

2305
01:42:53,479 --> 01:42:56,720
Speaker 4: say that. Yeah, his performance spoke for itself, but you

2306
01:42:56,760 --> 01:42:59,479
Speaker 4: know around town, the way his career ended, I don't

2307
01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:01,840
Speaker 4: think an it on a very high note. And there

2308
01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:04,799
Speaker 4: was some bitterness on his part in probably the organization

2309
01:43:04,880 --> 01:43:07,200
Speaker 4: as well as the fan base. So it was a

2310
01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:08,920
Speaker 4: bit of a surprise. But like I said, more so

2311
01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:13,520
Speaker 4: I was more surprised that James Brooks doesn't get the

2312
01:43:13,560 --> 01:43:16,439
Speaker 4: accolades that he deserves, So that would be more of

2313
01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:18,240
Speaker 4: my focus.

2314
01:43:18,800 --> 01:43:21,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I think that's a valid point.

2315
01:43:21,560 --> 01:43:23,920
Speaker 6: I think a guy that we will eventually see end

2316
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:25,880
Speaker 6: up in that ring of honor would be Jamar Chase.

2317
01:43:25,880 --> 01:43:28,360
Speaker 6: But I want to ask you about his running buddy

2318
01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:31,639
Speaker 6: T Higgins. How important is t Higgins to the success

2319
01:43:31,640 --> 01:43:32,519
Speaker 6: of the Bengals offense?

2320
01:43:33,400 --> 01:43:38,560
Speaker 4: Oh? I, as you know, and this is from personal experience,

2321
01:43:38,560 --> 01:43:40,360
Speaker 4: and when I played, I played with Eddie Brown and

2322
01:43:40,439 --> 01:43:46,320
Speaker 4: Chris Collinsworth, and it is a humongous difference when you

2323
01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:50,200
Speaker 4: are at the number one position and you don't have

2324
01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:53,599
Speaker 4: a number two or one a guy to really take

2325
01:43:53,640 --> 01:43:56,040
Speaker 4: the defense off of you, and they can just double

2326
01:43:56,160 --> 01:43:59,240
Speaker 4: you and double you and w a bracket you. And

2327
01:43:59,320 --> 01:44:02,760
Speaker 4: when that defensive coordinator goes into the meetings on Tuesday

2328
01:44:03,160 --> 01:44:05,880
Speaker 4: and they have your picture up there and saying Jamar

2329
01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:07,680
Speaker 4: Chase and they say, well, this is how we're going

2330
01:44:07,720 --> 01:44:10,920
Speaker 4: to stop this guy. They can be very, very successful.

2331
01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:13,040
Speaker 4: When you don't have a T. Higgins, they can be

2332
01:44:13,120 --> 01:44:16,559
Speaker 4: super and we've seen that with the Bengals play over

2333
01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:18,559
Speaker 4: the last couple of years. When Tea is not playing,

2334
01:44:18,640 --> 01:44:21,200
Speaker 4: Jamar's numbers are just not there because they're able to

2335
01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:24,280
Speaker 4: focus on them. So I think t is probably just

2336
01:44:24,360 --> 01:44:27,160
Speaker 4: as important in a different way than than Jamar is.

2337
01:44:27,560 --> 01:44:31,280
Speaker 4: But they're both are extremely talented young men and you know,

2338
01:44:31,400 --> 01:44:34,439
Speaker 4: got the great futures ahead of them. But I couldn't

2339
01:44:34,479 --> 01:44:36,960
Speaker 4: say one is more valuable than the other. I think

2340
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:39,080
Speaker 4: they play different roles. And if you play the game,

2341
01:44:39,120 --> 01:44:42,559
Speaker 4: and you surely truly understand the game, you'll understand what

2342
01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:45,200
Speaker 4: your teammate brings to you. It is not about you.

2343
01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:49,960
Speaker 4: That particular guy may get the accolades, he may get

2344
01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:53,479
Speaker 4: the the numbers, but without another guy that may not

2345
01:44:53,560 --> 01:44:54,160
Speaker 4: be possible.

2346
01:44:54,800 --> 01:44:56,640
Speaker 5: So if you bring an excelling point there to the

2347
01:44:56,680 --> 01:44:58,680
Speaker 5: table about the one to one a guy to take

2348
01:44:58,720 --> 01:45:00,920
Speaker 5: the pressure off the number one. We either I got

2349
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:03,160
Speaker 5: to ask you this nine years with the Bengals nias

2350
01:45:03,280 --> 01:45:06,040
Speaker 5: NFL three hundred and twenty one pairs is caught. Maybe

2351
01:45:06,040 --> 01:45:07,880
Speaker 5: how many more passes do you have had if Joe

2352
01:45:07,880 --> 01:45:08,920
Speaker 5: Burrow was showing to you.

2353
01:45:10,080 --> 01:45:13,280
Speaker 4: Well, I gotta say this first and foremost, I was

2354
01:45:13,840 --> 01:45:16,760
Speaker 4: really pleased with my quarterback in Boomer siens and I

2355
01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:20,240
Speaker 4: wouldn't trade him. And again, I know how talented Joe is,

2356
01:45:20,280 --> 01:45:22,920
Speaker 4: but you're talking about a totally different era, era where

2357
01:45:23,640 --> 01:45:26,639
Speaker 4: a quarterback didn't have the ability to sit back there

2358
01:45:26,720 --> 01:45:30,800
Speaker 4: and read a book and take his time going mental

2359
01:45:30,880 --> 01:45:33,479
Speaker 4: vacation because they know they weren't going to get hit

2360
01:45:33,560 --> 01:45:36,679
Speaker 4: because the rules allowed didn't allow the defense. It doesn't

2361
01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:39,320
Speaker 4: allow the defense to really tee on them and hit

2362
01:45:39,400 --> 01:45:42,880
Speaker 4: him low. And you know, sort of the Terry Bradshaw era.

2363
01:45:43,439 --> 01:45:47,160
Speaker 4: But so I take my quarterback if I'm playing back

2364
01:45:47,200 --> 01:45:50,240
Speaker 4: then when I played, I want my quarterback in Boomer

2365
01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:52,599
Speaker 4: Sienson because he was tough as nails. He was a leader.

2366
01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:56,560
Speaker 4: I totally understood the game, you know, just pretty much had.

2367
01:45:56,720 --> 01:45:59,000
Speaker 4: He was a guy. When they say a guy that

2368
01:45:59,080 --> 01:46:01,439
Speaker 4: commanded the room, I mean that's that's what. He didn't

2369
01:46:01,479 --> 01:46:03,920
Speaker 4: command the room, he commanded the organization. And you know

2370
01:46:04,040 --> 01:46:07,000
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow was playing in a totally different era and

2371
01:46:07,040 --> 01:46:10,440
Speaker 4: he's doing absolutely wonderful. He's bringing a lot of excitement

2372
01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:13,400
Speaker 4: and brought a lot of excitement, uh, for the for

2373
01:46:13,479 --> 01:46:17,640
Speaker 4: the community of Cincinnati and the surrounding area. So I

2374
01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:20,080
Speaker 4: wouldn't trade Boomer for nothing. And I just make sure

2375
01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:22,240
Speaker 4: we're on the same page because not only that I

2376
01:46:22,240 --> 01:46:23,960
Speaker 4: had Boom, I had riding home and I had Eddie

2377
01:46:23,960 --> 01:46:27,120
Speaker 4: Brown here, Chris Collinsworth if it was James Brook. So

2378
01:46:27,320 --> 01:46:30,600
Speaker 4: you know, obviously that's not possible in this day and

2379
01:46:30,640 --> 01:46:33,519
Speaker 4: air with the salad cap. There's no way the Bengals

2380
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:36,120
Speaker 4: or any team can afford that type of roster with

2381
01:46:36,160 --> 01:46:37,000
Speaker 4: that type of talent.

2382
01:46:37,360 --> 01:46:40,320
Speaker 5: Hey, Toom, could you said, we've got sports update to do.

2383
01:46:40,439 --> 01:46:43,120
Speaker 5: Could you hang with us a little bit? Sure, Okay,

2384
01:46:43,120 --> 01:46:45,280
Speaker 5: we're gonna tell them's gonna tell us what you should

2385
01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:47,160
Speaker 5: expect this year in the NFL. That's gonna come up

2386
01:46:47,160 --> 01:46:49,280
Speaker 5: next live for the tire rec dot Com STUDI is

2387
01:46:49,280 --> 01:46:51,759
Speaker 5: the first I got Kevin Wyatt with all your sports.

2388
01:46:54,040 --> 01:46:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2389
01:46:54,240 --> 01:46:56,960
Speaker 11: It was a nail bier for the men's Olympic basketball

2390
01:46:57,040 --> 01:47:01,240
Speaker 11: team on Saturday. They played South Suit Dan. It was

2391
01:47:01,280 --> 01:47:03,840
Speaker 11: a struggle in the first half. They trailed by sixteen

2392
01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:07,120
Speaker 11: points at one part of that first half, and it

2393
01:47:07,200 --> 01:47:11,000
Speaker 11: took a last moment layup by Lebron James to put

2394
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:13,200
Speaker 11: the United States ahead at the buzzer one oh one,

2395
01:47:13,320 --> 01:47:16,639
Speaker 11: one hundred, part of James's twenty five points. But uh

2396
01:47:16,800 --> 01:47:19,320
Speaker 11: too close for comfort there for the Americans, as they've

2397
01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:22,759
Speaker 11: got one more exhibition game before they head out to Paris.

2398
01:47:22,800 --> 01:47:26,000
Speaker 11: It'll be Monday against Germany that can be seen over

2399
01:47:26,240 --> 01:47:30,240
Speaker 11: on Fox. As for the US women's Olympic basketball team,

2400
01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:34,439
Speaker 11: they lost to the WNBA All Stars one seventeen to

2401
01:47:34,479 --> 01:47:40,160
Speaker 11: one oh nine as a al Rique ogum Bowally scored

2402
01:47:40,200 --> 01:47:43,280
Speaker 11: thirty four points, twenty one of them in the twenty

2403
01:47:43,280 --> 01:47:45,120
Speaker 11: one of them in the third quarter, all of her

2404
01:47:45,160 --> 01:47:48,000
Speaker 11: points coming in the second half. Angel reached twelve points

2405
01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:54,599
Speaker 11: eleven rebounds. Caitlyn Clark had ten assists the Cavaliers, giving

2406
01:47:54,600 --> 01:47:58,280
Speaker 11: Evan Mobley a MAX extension for five years worth at

2407
01:47:58,400 --> 01:48:02,280
Speaker 11: least two hundred and twenty four million dollars. And in

2408
01:48:02,320 --> 01:48:05,759
Speaker 11: Major League Baseball, the Dodds for the second straight game

2409
01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:08,320
Speaker 11: come from behind me beat the Red Sox. This time

2410
01:48:08,360 --> 01:48:10,559
Speaker 11: they did it in eleven innings. Key k Hernandez with

2411
01:48:10,680 --> 01:48:13,400
Speaker 11: the tying home run in the ninth inning of Will

2412
01:48:13,400 --> 01:48:16,720
Speaker 11: Smith with the walk off RBI in the eleventh to

2413
01:48:16,760 --> 01:48:19,280
Speaker 11: win it seven to six. The Brewers also won it

2414
01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:22,200
Speaker 11: in extra innings on Saturday, they beat the Minnesota Twins

2415
01:48:22,280 --> 01:48:26,719
Speaker 11: eight to four. The Astros are now in first place

2416
01:48:26,800 --> 01:48:29,040
Speaker 11: all by themselves. They are a game up on the

2417
01:48:29,080 --> 01:48:32,040
Speaker 11: Mariners after they beat Seattle four too. So the Mariners

2418
01:48:32,120 --> 01:48:34,879
Speaker 11: right now in free fall. They have lost five games

2419
01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:37,280
Speaker 11: in a row, but the Pirates playing well. They've made

2420
01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:40,360
Speaker 11: it six straight wins after beating the Phillies four to one.

2421
01:48:40,760 --> 01:48:43,880
Speaker 11: The Tigers have made it four straight wins in a

2422
01:48:43,960 --> 01:48:47,360
Speaker 11: seven to three victory against the Blue Jays. Out east,

2423
01:48:47,520 --> 01:48:50,479
Speaker 11: it is the Orioles ahead by two games after Baltimore

2424
01:48:50,520 --> 01:48:53,680
Speaker 11: wins eight four of Texas, while the Yankees losing nine

2425
01:48:53,720 --> 01:48:55,559
Speaker 11: to one to the Tampa Bay Rays.

2426
01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:57,400
Speaker 2: Back to you guys, all right, thanks.

2427
01:48:57,280 --> 01:48:59,679
Speaker 5: keV, all right, we got Tim McGee here, So Bucky

2428
01:48:59,760 --> 01:49:01,160
Speaker 5: Brook fuck you your turn.

2429
01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:02,920
Speaker 2: Give Tim holla right there?

2430
01:49:03,720 --> 01:49:05,920
Speaker 8: Okay, So Tim, your your buddy.

2431
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:09,200
Speaker 6: Andy was on earlier and saying that wide receivers are

2432
01:49:09,200 --> 01:49:12,080
Speaker 6: a diamond dozen that quarterbacks can basically make and elevate

2433
01:49:12,120 --> 01:49:15,160
Speaker 6: and create any wide receiver, can you please give them

2434
01:49:15,160 --> 01:49:18,400
Speaker 6: a little insight on how it's actually reversed, how wide

2435
01:49:18,400 --> 01:49:21,000
Speaker 6: receivers can make the job so much easier for quarterbacks,

2436
01:49:21,040 --> 01:49:22,479
Speaker 6: and why they are necessary evil.

2437
01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:25,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what to answer that question. In short,

2438
01:49:25,680 --> 01:49:28,400
Speaker 4: it's called rack runs after the cats. So you know,

2439
01:49:28,479 --> 01:49:31,840
Speaker 4: the quarterback gets the really simple. The quarterback gets the

2440
01:49:31,880 --> 01:49:37,560
Speaker 4: credit for adr catch or touchdow or reception. However, the

2441
01:49:38,080 --> 01:49:41,040
Speaker 4: wide receiver could have caught that ball, casing point Jamar

2442
01:49:41,160 --> 01:49:44,160
Speaker 4: Chase T. Higgins, you know, justin Jefferson, so on and

2443
01:49:44,160 --> 01:49:47,960
Speaker 4: so forth. These guys Tyreek Kale, once they touched the ball,

2444
01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:51,120
Speaker 4: the action has just started. They have the ability. Like

2445
01:49:51,120 --> 01:49:53,920
Speaker 4: I said, I am huge on impact play, huge on

2446
01:49:54,000 --> 01:49:57,120
Speaker 4: impact play. I don't look at stats so much. The

2447
01:49:57,200 --> 01:50:01,719
Speaker 4: only stat I really think is important average yard for catch,

2448
01:50:02,360 --> 01:50:05,360
Speaker 4: and quarterback gets the credit. But quarterbacks are not going

2449
01:50:05,400 --> 01:50:08,960
Speaker 4: back to the going back and throwing eighty yard passes.

2450
01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,519
Speaker 4: What they're doing, they're throwing ten to fifteen twenty yard

2451
01:50:11,600 --> 01:50:14,200
Speaker 4: passes and receivers are taking them to the house. And

2452
01:50:14,200 --> 01:50:18,040
Speaker 4: that's why the receivers probably deserved more credit than the quarterback.

2453
01:50:18,120 --> 01:50:21,000
Speaker 4: But we know it's a quarterback league, and we know

2454
01:50:21,479 --> 01:50:24,000
Speaker 4: they're going to give the quarterback the most valuable player.

2455
01:50:24,360 --> 01:50:27,840
Speaker 4: Unless the receiver has twenty four catches for six hundred

2456
01:50:27,840 --> 01:50:31,640
Speaker 4: and eighty nine yards and twelve touchdowns. We know the

2457
01:50:33,120 --> 01:50:36,000
Speaker 4: focus has to be on the pretty boy quarterback, the

2458
01:50:36,120 --> 01:50:40,479
Speaker 4: model Joe Burrow, the Patrick Mahomes. But without the Tyreek

2459
01:50:40,560 --> 01:50:44,200
Speaker 4: Hills and the Jamar Chases, they'll just be a normal

2460
01:50:44,439 --> 01:50:48,800
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones type of quarterback. So wide receivers are the

2461
01:50:48,880 --> 01:50:51,639
Speaker 4: number one position in the National Football League. And I'll

2462
01:50:51,680 --> 01:50:55,400
Speaker 4: debate that with anyone at any time, including you, fur Ball,

2463
01:50:55,720 --> 01:50:57,000
Speaker 4: including you for Ball.

2464
01:50:57,240 --> 01:50:59,240
Speaker 5: Sal Lev the tim so a little bit of it,

2465
01:50:59,240 --> 01:51:00,880
Speaker 5: and let's talk about what I receive his first second,

2466
01:51:00,960 --> 01:51:03,519
Speaker 5: let's tell about Brandon Ayuk from the San Francisco forty

2467
01:51:03,600 --> 01:51:05,240
Speaker 5: nine ers. I say that forty nine ers can win

2468
01:51:05,280 --> 01:51:07,559
Speaker 5: without him. You know, they don't really need him. He's

2469
01:51:07,600 --> 01:51:10,800
Speaker 5: threatening to sit out. The Veterans go to camp on

2470
01:51:10,880 --> 01:51:13,120
Speaker 5: Tuesday for the forty nine ers, and if he sits out,

2471
01:51:13,160 --> 01:51:15,840
Speaker 5: it's fifty grand a day.

2472
01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:17,040
Speaker 2: They can unload him.

2473
01:51:17,040 --> 01:51:19,000
Speaker 5: I think we'll play for the forty nine ers, But

2474
01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:21,200
Speaker 5: I do believe that if he does go and they

2475
01:51:21,200 --> 01:51:23,080
Speaker 5: trade him, they could win without him.

2476
01:51:24,040 --> 01:51:26,519
Speaker 4: I think so too, because the creativity that they have

2477
01:51:26,680 --> 01:51:30,120
Speaker 4: in their coach in Shanahan, they have the ability with

2478
01:51:30,360 --> 01:51:32,719
Speaker 4: so many weapons, and they kind of remind me, quite honestly.

2479
01:51:32,760 --> 01:51:35,280
Speaker 4: They remind me of our team back in the day.

2480
01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:37,600
Speaker 4: And I know most people wouldn't remember that the splitting,

2481
01:51:37,880 --> 01:51:41,040
Speaker 4: but we had so many weapons and for the forty

2482
01:51:41,120 --> 01:51:44,479
Speaker 4: nine ers have so many weapons. Well, they love him back,

2483
01:51:44,520 --> 01:51:47,800
Speaker 4: oh absolutely. However, I think, like you said, I think

2484
01:51:47,800 --> 01:51:53,240
Speaker 4: they can adjust very easily. But you know, it's one

2485
01:51:53,240 --> 01:51:56,439
Speaker 4: of those situations where I understand the kid's position. He

2486
01:51:56,520 --> 01:51:58,240
Speaker 4: wants to get paid. He wants to get paid now

2487
01:51:58,320 --> 01:52:01,360
Speaker 4: because as Buck you know, we that window of opportunity

2488
01:52:01,520 --> 01:52:04,280
Speaker 4: is very small. And in the National Football League today,

2489
01:52:05,240 --> 01:52:07,479
Speaker 4: hey man, you make your money and move on with

2490
01:52:07,600 --> 01:52:09,600
Speaker 4: life where and then you don't have to have the

2491
01:52:09,800 --> 01:52:12,880
Speaker 4: tense surgeries that I had, including the knee replacement eight

2492
01:52:12,880 --> 01:52:14,680
Speaker 4: weeks ago. So that's just the way it is.

2493
01:52:15,720 --> 01:52:19,000
Speaker 6: Oh wow, well, hopefully you're covering well from that knee replacement.

2494
01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:21,000
Speaker 6: I want to ask you, though, because there's been so

2495
01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:22,920
Speaker 6: many young players that have kind of jumped in the

2496
01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:26,840
Speaker 6: league and had immediate success, so much different from yesteryear.

2497
01:52:26,880 --> 01:52:29,000
Speaker 6: When you see a guy like Puka nikoua a fifth

2498
01:52:29,080 --> 01:52:31,559
Speaker 6: round pick that can come in and dominate right away,

2499
01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:34,760
Speaker 6: what do you think is behind so many of these

2500
01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,200
Speaker 6: young guys success the system?

2501
01:52:37,560 --> 01:52:41,160
Speaker 4: The system and were before when we came into the league.

2502
01:52:41,200 --> 01:52:43,880
Speaker 4: And again I'm comparing, but I'm not saying one better

2503
01:52:43,960 --> 01:52:46,639
Speaker 4: than the other. I'm saying to answer your question, I'm

2504
01:52:46,640 --> 01:52:50,719
Speaker 4: clarifying that these guys have a huge advantage because the system.

2505
01:52:50,760 --> 01:52:53,280
Speaker 4: Some of them run the same system in college and

2506
01:52:53,520 --> 01:52:55,600
Speaker 4: they don't have to wait that turn, you know, for

2507
01:52:55,760 --> 01:52:57,720
Speaker 4: to speaker, like when you came into the league and

2508
01:52:57,760 --> 01:52:59,320
Speaker 4: I came into the league, there was a start in

2509
01:52:59,320 --> 01:53:01,960
Speaker 4: front of you to earn your time on special teams,

2510
01:53:02,000 --> 01:53:03,760
Speaker 4: and then you've got to play a little bit in

2511
01:53:03,800 --> 01:53:06,519
Speaker 4: the situational football and then hey, if you are lucky,

2512
01:53:06,560 --> 01:53:10,000
Speaker 4: you built yourself up to a starter and then a star. Nowadays,

2513
01:53:10,080 --> 01:53:12,840
Speaker 4: with the system, you know Sean McVay system, it's a

2514
01:53:12,880 --> 01:53:15,559
Speaker 4: plug and plut and you know, if you have the

2515
01:53:15,680 --> 01:53:18,160
Speaker 4: extreme talent, they like that Jamar Chase and the t

2516
01:53:18,320 --> 01:53:21,080
Speaker 4: Higgins and you know, the dustin differences in the Tyreek

2517
01:53:21,120 --> 01:53:24,040
Speaker 4: Hills of the world, and there's many of them if

2518
01:53:24,080 --> 01:53:26,519
Speaker 4: you don't have that, you still can be successful in

2519
01:53:26,560 --> 01:53:28,439
Speaker 4: the National Football leaguecause the ruge allows.

2520
01:53:30,280 --> 01:53:31,920
Speaker 5: This is my last question for you, because I know

2521
01:53:31,960 --> 01:53:33,920
Speaker 5: you want to go back and do your rehab on

2522
01:53:33,920 --> 01:53:36,559
Speaker 5: your knee. So I'm not going to bug anymore. I'm

2523
01:53:36,560 --> 01:53:37,960
Speaker 5: gonna run and talk about injuries.

2524
01:53:38,000 --> 01:53:38,280
Speaker 2: Okay.

2525
01:53:38,320 --> 01:53:41,479
Speaker 5: With the addition of flag football now with the NFL,

2526
01:53:42,160 --> 01:53:44,720
Speaker 5: and now it's an Olympic sport as well. Do you

2527
01:53:44,840 --> 01:53:49,960
Speaker 5: see maybe someday the NFL replacing the tackle football game?

2528
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:52,759
Speaker 5: And now it sounds crazy with flag football? Could that happen?

2529
01:53:53,600 --> 01:53:57,479
Speaker 4: No, the fans are embedded in tackle football. It's a

2530
01:53:57,560 --> 01:54:01,400
Speaker 4: biden sport for the players, but it's a very entertaining

2531
01:54:01,520 --> 01:54:05,479
Speaker 4: sport for the players and the television networks, and that's

2532
01:54:05,520 --> 01:54:09,559
Speaker 4: what drives again. People love to see that big hit,

2533
01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:11,400
Speaker 4: they love to see that tackle, they love to see

2534
01:54:11,400 --> 01:54:13,720
Speaker 4: that broken tackle. They love to see the running back

2535
01:54:13,800 --> 01:54:15,880
Speaker 4: run over guys or and so forth. So that's the

2536
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:19,200
Speaker 4: element that you cannot delete from the game. It's the

2537
01:54:19,240 --> 01:54:22,120
Speaker 4: physicality of the game has to exist in order for

2538
01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:24,080
Speaker 4: it to be successful, and that's why it's one of

2539
01:54:24,080 --> 01:54:26,840
Speaker 4: the most successful sports in the world, not just in

2540
01:54:26,840 --> 01:54:28,200
Speaker 4: the United States of America.

2541
01:54:28,760 --> 01:54:30,719
Speaker 2: Now let me let bucket go one more time.

2542
01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:35,440
Speaker 6: No so, and thinking about that, give me a laun

2543
01:54:35,480 --> 01:54:38,440
Speaker 6: shot or off the wall prediction from a former player.

2544
01:54:38,480 --> 01:54:40,760
Speaker 8: What do you see happening in twenty twenty four? Open

2545
01:54:40,840 --> 01:54:41,920
Speaker 8: up your crystal ball and let us know.

2546
01:54:42,800 --> 01:54:46,360
Speaker 4: Well, you know, I see everyone again, Jason Patrick Mahomes,

2547
01:54:46,360 --> 01:54:50,840
Speaker 4: and I see Lamar Jackson getting to the pinnacle of

2548
01:54:50,880 --> 01:54:54,200
Speaker 4: success of the Super Bowl and winning the Super Bowl.

2549
01:54:54,840 --> 01:54:58,440
Speaker 4: I hope it doesn't happen, but I'm predicting it will

2550
01:54:58,520 --> 01:55:02,800
Speaker 4: happen based on they have to be very, very very

2551
01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:05,400
Speaker 4: super hungry after the way they see it in the

2552
01:55:05,480 --> 01:55:08,560
Speaker 4: season ended last year and again, if my Bengals can

2553
01:55:08,960 --> 01:55:11,480
Speaker 4: just keep the quarterback position healthy, I think they'll give

2554
01:55:11,520 --> 01:55:14,120
Speaker 4: them a run for the money. But AFC again, I

2555
01:55:14,200 --> 01:55:16,640
Speaker 4: just see you're gonna get the Super Bowl champion coming

2556
01:55:16,640 --> 01:55:17,360
Speaker 4: out of the AFC.

2589
01:56:34,640 --> 01:56:37,080
Speaker 5: sports updates? But right now it's time to play the

2590
01:56:37,120 --> 01:56:40,720
Speaker 5: blame game. Let's play with me. It's all your fault,

2591
01:56:41,400 --> 01:56:42,320
Speaker 5: it's your fault.

2592
01:56:42,480 --> 01:56:43,800
Speaker 2: What it's all your fault?

2593
01:56:47,320 --> 01:56:52,400
Speaker 1: Maybe it's everyone's fault, liar, that's why there's the blame game.

2594
01:56:52,440 --> 01:56:53,120
Speaker 2: The blame game.

2595
01:56:53,200 --> 01:56:54,120
Speaker 1: Let's figure out.

2596
01:56:54,040 --> 01:56:54,760
Speaker 3: Who to blame.

2597
01:56:55,360 --> 01:56:57,720
Speaker 5: Yes, all right, Brianna, are you ready for the blame game.

2598
01:56:57,920 --> 01:56:59,080
Speaker 5: We're gonna blame you.

2599
01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:03,520
Speaker 13: Supposed to blame me first, Okay, yes, I'll take that. Okay,

2600
01:57:03,760 --> 01:57:06,160
Speaker 13: So now we're gonna blame or no, we're not gonna

2601
01:57:06,160 --> 01:57:09,480
Speaker 13: blame Ingrad But Ingrid Andress went viral last Monday for

2602
01:57:09,600 --> 01:57:12,600
Speaker 13: an unfortunate performance of the national anthem at the home

2603
01:57:12,640 --> 01:57:15,440
Speaker 13: run dermy. She says she was drunk during the event

2604
01:57:15,520 --> 01:57:17,800
Speaker 13: afterwards and that she was going to head to rehab.

2605
01:57:18,000 --> 01:57:18,760
Speaker 7: Who do you blame?

2606
01:57:20,360 --> 01:57:21,360
Speaker 2: Let Bucky go first.

2607
01:57:22,720 --> 01:57:25,840
Speaker 6: Look, I blame whoever's responsible for booking her. Like, one

2608
01:57:25,880 --> 01:57:28,000
Speaker 6: of the things that you're responsible for is making sure

2609
01:57:28,040 --> 01:57:30,600
Speaker 6: you know the talent who you're bringing on board. If

2610
01:57:30,640 --> 01:57:33,600
Speaker 6: there was any inkling or any possibility that she could.

2611
01:57:33,400 --> 01:57:35,880
Speaker 8: Show up and not represent in a way that is becoming.

2612
01:57:35,520 --> 01:57:37,920
Speaker 6: A the franchise. You can't allow her to go on,

2613
01:57:37,960 --> 01:57:40,400
Speaker 6: so I have to. Unfortunately it's the talent booker. The

2614
01:57:40,400 --> 01:57:41,960
Speaker 6: booker gets to blame for this one.

2615
01:57:42,200 --> 01:57:44,480
Speaker 5: See that's what you're wrong, Bucky Brooks. But you always

2616
01:57:44,480 --> 01:57:46,800
Speaker 5: pointed the finger at the wrong person. First of all,

2617
01:57:46,960 --> 01:57:49,320
Speaker 5: Ingrid was drunk, she gotta blame her. Why do I

2618
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:52,360
Speaker 5: blame her? If you're gonna drink drink light beer or

2619
01:57:52,400 --> 01:57:56,040
Speaker 5: alcohol free beer, that's the problem. You're blaming the wrong person.

2620
01:57:56,160 --> 01:57:58,520
Speaker 5: Why would you blame the booker. The booker had no

2621
01:57:58,640 --> 01:58:01,240
Speaker 5: idea that she's gonna come on unloaded. Okay, so you

2622
01:58:01,280 --> 01:58:04,120
Speaker 5: gotta blame Herror. You do your drinking, fine, but do

2623
01:58:04,200 --> 01:58:06,600
Speaker 5: it with light beer or the alcohol free beer.

2624
01:58:06,640 --> 01:58:09,040
Speaker 2: That's what you're blame, Horror. That's it.

2625
01:58:11,080 --> 01:58:14,480
Speaker 7: Okay, On to the next one. Corporate greed.

2626
01:58:14,600 --> 01:58:17,360
Speaker 13: How can the city of Saint Pete approve a one

2627
01:58:17,400 --> 01:58:20,360
Speaker 13: point three billion dollars stadium for the rais?

2628
01:58:20,520 --> 01:58:21,240
Speaker 7: Who do you blame?

2629
01:58:21,840 --> 01:58:23,920
Speaker 5: Okay, I'll take this one because I have believe there's

2630
01:58:23,960 --> 01:58:29,600
Speaker 5: some underhanded political shenanigans going on, because somebody both of

2631
01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:33,520
Speaker 5: somebody in politics to have a bad baseball team that

2632
01:58:33,560 --> 01:58:36,720
Speaker 5: no one goes to in the city of Tampa slash

2633
01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:40,000
Speaker 5: Saint Pete. To approve a one point three billion with

2634
01:58:40,080 --> 01:58:42,920
Speaker 5: a b billion dollars stadium that no one's gonna go to,

2635
01:58:43,120 --> 01:58:45,760
Speaker 5: it's a joke. It's ridiculous, and that team should move.

2636
01:58:45,800 --> 01:58:48,480
Speaker 5: They're looking for a team in Montreal. They're looking for

2637
01:58:48,520 --> 01:58:50,920
Speaker 5: a team in Nashville. There's your team right there. The

2638
01:58:51,000 --> 01:58:53,120
Speaker 5: Rays get him out of there, and they get a

2639
01:58:53,160 --> 01:58:55,160
Speaker 5: brand new stadium. It's unbelievable.

2640
01:58:55,160 --> 01:58:58,000
Speaker 2: It really is. Someone's on the take, and it's not good.

2641
01:58:59,040 --> 01:58:59,200
Speaker 8: Yeah.

2642
01:58:59,240 --> 01:59:00,800
Speaker 6: I don't know if someone's to take, but look, they

2643
01:59:00,840 --> 01:59:03,120
Speaker 6: had a deal in place years ago to maybe split

2644
01:59:03,160 --> 01:59:05,560
Speaker 6: their time between Montreal and the Tampa area.

2645
01:59:06,080 --> 01:59:07,960
Speaker 8: For whatever reason, that deal filled through.

2646
01:59:08,000 --> 01:59:09,240
Speaker 6: I thought it was gonna be cool to kind of

2647
01:59:09,240 --> 01:59:12,680
Speaker 6: see a version of the Expos come back. But in Tampa, man,

2648
01:59:12,720 --> 01:59:15,080
Speaker 6: the Rays have been too good for too long to

2649
01:59:15,160 --> 01:59:16,760
Speaker 6: allow this team just to walk out.

2650
01:59:17,080 --> 01:59:18,480
Speaker 8: You got to figure out a way to pony up.

2651
01:59:18,520 --> 01:59:20,760
Speaker 6: Now we'll see if it's monopoly money or real money,

2652
01:59:21,040 --> 01:59:22,760
Speaker 6: but kudos to them for trying to find a way

2653
01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:23,560
Speaker 6: to keep the devil.

2654
01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:24,120
Speaker 8: Raised in time.

2655
01:59:25,960 --> 01:59:30,400
Speaker 13: Okay, now we're gonna head over to Alabama. The university

2656
01:59:30,520 --> 01:59:33,760
Speaker 13: plans to honor coach Nick Saban by naming its football

2657
01:59:33,880 --> 01:59:36,640
Speaker 13: playing field for him at Bryant Denny Stadium.

2658
01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:38,560
Speaker 7: Who do you blame?

2659
01:59:38,800 --> 01:59:42,320
Speaker 13: Like, should they keep it the Bear Bryant Field in stadium?

2660
01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:43,400
Speaker 10: No?

2661
01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:44,720
Speaker 8: No, no, no, you get it, get it, you got it.

2662
01:59:44,760 --> 01:59:44,880
Speaker 4: Now.

2663
01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:47,160
Speaker 6: You got to reward Nick Saban for the legend that

2664
01:59:47,200 --> 01:59:52,680
Speaker 6: he is there. Look, look, Bear Bryant is the legend.

2665
01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:55,600
Speaker 6: But Nick Saban has surpassed Bear Bryant in terms of

2666
01:59:55,720 --> 01:59:58,200
Speaker 6: his relationship, his success at Alabama.

2667
01:59:58,320 --> 01:59:59,800
Speaker 8: He deserves to have something they after him.

2668
02:00:00,160 --> 02:00:02,360
Speaker 6: Better way to do it than to recognize him by

2669
02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:04,640
Speaker 6: naming the field after You know.

2670
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:07,320
Speaker 5: I enjoy the naming of the fields because it keeps

2671
02:00:07,360 --> 02:00:09,760
Speaker 5: history and perspective. It really does. And both these coaches

2672
02:00:09,760 --> 02:00:12,600
Speaker 5: with tremendous they've done a lot. That's number one. Number two,

2673
02:00:12,920 --> 02:00:15,080
Speaker 5: it's great that they're doing it and they're not having

2674
02:00:15,080 --> 02:00:17,760
Speaker 5: a corporation put their check out there and say name

2675
02:00:17,800 --> 02:00:20,520
Speaker 5: it after my company, So that's even better. But number three,

2676
02:00:20,680 --> 02:00:23,600
Speaker 5: here's my take on this, And maybe it's warped, maybe

2677
02:00:23,600 --> 02:00:26,440
Speaker 5: it's crazy, but I don't think they should name any

2678
02:00:26,520 --> 02:00:30,040
Speaker 5: stadium any facility until that person is dead.

2679
02:00:30,480 --> 02:00:32,800
Speaker 2: Really, I know it sounds morbid. I'll tell you why.

2680
02:00:32,840 --> 02:00:36,320
Speaker 5: I say that they named the street in Cincinnati called

2681
02:00:36,400 --> 02:00:39,320
Speaker 5: Pete rose Way, and after they named it after Pete

2682
02:00:39,360 --> 02:00:41,480
Speaker 5: rose Way, that's when Pete got into all the trouble

2683
02:00:41,760 --> 02:00:44,440
Speaker 5: with the alleged gambling and the things like that. So

2684
02:00:44,760 --> 02:00:47,400
Speaker 5: I think that wait till a guy passes and then

2685
02:00:47,440 --> 02:00:51,280
Speaker 5: you can remember him forever and ever and ever. But look,

2686
02:00:51,320 --> 02:00:54,160
Speaker 5: what if Nick Saban gets a DUI next week. I

2687
02:00:54,200 --> 02:00:56,720
Speaker 5: mean it's possible, and I know he's a great coach

2688
02:00:56,720 --> 02:00:59,000
Speaker 5: and it probably won't happen. But I just believe that

2689
02:00:59,040 --> 02:01:02,160
Speaker 5: you should name after the guy is gone. Maybe I'm wrong,

2690
02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:03,440
Speaker 5: but that's my take on it.

2691
02:01:04,200 --> 02:01:06,080
Speaker 8: No, No, I want my flowers on. I'm alive, Like

2692
02:01:06,120 --> 02:01:07,360
Speaker 8: you don't get a chance to enjoy.

2693
02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:10,040
Speaker 6: What's the whole point of naming the thing after a

2694
02:01:10,120 --> 02:01:11,520
Speaker 6: person who's no longer there?

2695
02:01:11,840 --> 02:01:13,720
Speaker 8: He chance to? Really?

2696
02:01:14,160 --> 02:01:16,760
Speaker 6: You bad, bad things can always happen, but you can't

2697
02:01:16,760 --> 02:01:17,600
Speaker 6: live your life in field.

2698
02:01:17,600 --> 02:01:17,920
Speaker 3: You got to.

2699
02:01:17,960 --> 02:01:19,720
Speaker 8: You gotta reward people for doing that.

2700
02:01:19,840 --> 02:01:22,800
Speaker 6: So Nick Saban needs to have his his field named

2701
02:01:22,800 --> 02:01:23,240
Speaker 6: after him.

2702
02:01:23,320 --> 02:01:25,960
Speaker 8: Other people need to have things named after them, give.

2703
02:01:25,880 --> 02:01:26,480
Speaker 3: Them their flowers.

2704
02:01:28,600 --> 02:01:30,680
Speaker 2: He told me into it. You taught me into it?

2705
02:01:30,920 --> 02:01:33,760
Speaker 13: What Coach K has the whole floor named after him?

2706
02:01:33,760 --> 02:01:35,000
Speaker 13: What if he got a g u I what are

2707
02:01:35,040 --> 02:01:35,480
Speaker 13: they gonna do?

2708
02:01:35,640 --> 02:01:36,640
Speaker 2: He's funny.

2709
02:01:36,960 --> 02:01:39,240
Speaker 5: Come on, he went to the military academy taking it

2710
02:01:39,320 --> 02:01:42,360
Speaker 5: up the coach kid. That's that's a different animal. Really,

2711
02:01:42,680 --> 02:01:45,280
Speaker 5: he went on. He played for Bob Knight. Nothing's gonna

2712
02:01:45,280 --> 02:01:46,760
Speaker 5: happen to coach k blame.

2713
02:01:47,560 --> 02:01:52,160
Speaker 13: Okay, CBS has reached an exclusive, multi year, multi platform

2714
02:01:52,200 --> 02:01:54,200
Speaker 13: rights deal with the English Football League.

2715
02:01:54,480 --> 02:01:56,520
Speaker 7: Do you even care? And like, who do you blame?

2716
02:01:57,480 --> 02:01:59,680
Speaker 2: Who's m Bucky?

2717
02:02:00,040 --> 02:02:00,200

Speaker 8: Buck Yill?

2719
02:02:02,720 --> 02:02:06,160
Speaker 6: Look, man, I'm fine with all the leagues. I want

2720
02:02:06,160 --> 02:02:08,880
Speaker 6: everyone to get their shine. So I'm actually okay with it.

2721
02:02:08,960 --> 02:02:11,640
Speaker 6: Like I can't say it necessarily appeals to me, but like, yeah,

2722
02:02:12,000 --> 02:02:13,920
Speaker 6: the more the Mirria so intemeing. You have an opportunity

2723
02:02:13,960 --> 02:02:15,880
Speaker 6: to show shore showcase and let us see what it

2724
02:02:15,920 --> 02:02:16,320
Speaker 6: looks like.

2725
02:02:16,680 --> 02:02:17,240
Speaker 8: I'm behind it.

2726
02:02:18,040 --> 02:02:19,400
Speaker 2: You know, here's the problem.

2727
02:02:19,520 --> 02:02:21,800
Speaker 5: There are too many leagues and there are too many

2728
02:02:21,840 --> 02:02:24,800
Speaker 5: outlets on television and it needs to fill time. Okay,

2729
02:02:25,000 --> 02:02:26,160
Speaker 5: what do I mean by that? At the end of

2730
02:02:26,160 --> 02:02:29,640
Speaker 5: the day, I'm screening around television. I got the clicker

2731
02:02:29,680 --> 02:02:33,120
Speaker 5: with me. I'm seeing cornhole. I'm seeing with football. I

2732
02:02:33,160 --> 02:02:35,879
Speaker 5: saw with football and with Football League A with football

2733
02:02:35,960 --> 02:02:40,040
Speaker 5: game on TV. It's unbelievable. Look the English Football League.

2734
02:02:40,400 --> 02:02:42,720
Speaker 5: I'm not a big English Football League fan. I probably

2735
02:02:42,760 --> 02:02:45,080
Speaker 5: won't watch it. I don't care. They got to announce it,

2736
02:02:45,120 --> 02:02:47,080
Speaker 5: they got a multi year multi platform rights there.

2737
02:02:47,160 --> 02:02:49,840
Speaker 2: Who cares. I don't care. I blame the fact that

2738
02:02:49,920 --> 02:02:52,680
Speaker 2: there's too many leagues and too many teams. Okay, that's it.
