1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 2: That's right, We're broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios.

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 2: I'm Martin Weiss. Monseis here with us. Where look three

4
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: hours manci of what I determined to be the best

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 2: time of the year, and I am not talking about

6
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 2: the wrestling championships would seem to be on the TV.

7
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:24,319
Speaker 3: Oh thank you.

8
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 4: I didn't want to miss that March madness.

9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:32,560
Speaker 2: The men's and women's tournaments. We are teams punching their ticket.

10
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: What else do you punch your ticket to? This is

11
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 2: also a great phrase time, right, because you stayed off elimination.

12
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 2: You punch your ticket and then my favorite all the alliteration,

13
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,959
Speaker 2: Sweet sixteen, Elite eight, Final four, and then they get

14
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:47,640
Speaker 2: the National two.

15
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: I guess like college championship was a little.

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 5: Too all I thought about when you said punch your

17
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 5: ticket or like, what else can you punch your ticket to?

18
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, and the price is right.

19
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 5: There's that game where you can punch the things you

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 5: have to win numbers and you punch them yes, and

21
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 5: then they pull out a prize.

22
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 2: So I assume at some point there was dances that

23
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 2: you punched tickets to. Im that's why you punched your

24
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 2: ticket to the dance a dance. But so Michigan goes

25
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 2: this morning, Michigan State as well, both of them playing

26
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 2: in Buffalo won and going to the Midwest region. Now

27
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: they're going to the East, making quick work of their opponents.

28
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: Duke had a little bit of trouble until about ten

29
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: minutes left in seven minutes left in the second half

30
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: earlier today. But Duke had a whole lot of trouble

31
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 2: until about three minutes left in the first half of

32
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 2: the round of sixty four, which I mean again, yeah,

33
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: they do great alliteration until the sweet sixteen on up

34
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 2: until even adding the first four.

35
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: I get it.

36
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 2: You went back to first and I get it, just

37
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 2: for me four f's I get it. But somewhere in

38
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: the middle round of sixty four, round to thirty two,

39
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 2: ball dropped right anyway, balls almost dropped by Duke along

40
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: the way as Siena pulled the JJ Reddick strategy of

41
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 2: we are not making a single substitution in the entire

42
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 2: game until the very last moment where a player had

43
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 2: injured his ankle and see had to come out.

44
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 3: And I think when you even look it up, it

45
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 3: still says they all played forty.

46
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 5: Because they play a full minute, right exactly, It still

47
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 5: says all forty.

48
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: So all forty minutes played by the starters, by Sienna.

49
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: Duke losing a eight squeaky one.

50
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 2: Now, Ian and I were talking about this off the air,

51
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 2: our producer, Ian and we were going through kind of

52
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 2: like the concept, right because as you're watching that Duke

53
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: Siena matchup, right, because that's what we're here for.

54
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 4: Absolutely right, well tuned in to see.

55
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: Okay, that's the secret about March Madness.

56
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 2: They play thirty two games, was first round half of them.

57
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: Stink.

58
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: I didn't see a second of Troy versus Nebraska, right,

59
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: it was forty points before I look yep, right, and

60
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: that's how some of these Florida and for Evy and

61
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: m Right, Florida was the thirty five and a half favorite,

62
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 2: biggest favorite in tournament since nineteen ninety nine, biggest fan

63
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: I believe, I mean, just coached easily. The coach of

64
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: preivy Am said, how are you going to stop them?

65
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: We say, we need, you know, divine intervention essentially to

66
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: try to make.

67
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 4: Something happen, keeping it one hundred.

68
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 2: And he was absolutely didn't keep the score under one hundred,

69
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 2: kept his halftime comments one hundred. But like, so, there's

70
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 2: there's two ways about this though, right because you filled

71
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: out a bracket. I'm sure I did for this Fox

72
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 2: Sports Radio challenge.

73
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 3: That's right, all right?

74
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: So did I? I finally made it in this year.

75
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: This is my first one.

76
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 3: Oh how excited.

77
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: I'm not proud, okay, because it's all my and I.

78
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: Honestly, we did the Erontorius Survivor Pool Challenge.

79
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I got locked out of that on

80
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: accident too.

81
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 5: What did you do you to put it in before

82
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 5: nine am Pacific Standard time?

83
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is.

84
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: The time change that I that you personally and Kurk

85
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: from moving from the East Coast to the West coast.

86
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: It hits me for everything. I've never never I'm really

87
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: late to work, Like you know what I'm saying. I'm

88
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 2: never like, oh, I thought it was West Coast time.

89
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: This tournament in particular, I always seem to miss it.

90
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 5: All right, Well, we got to talk about it because

91
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 5: you're the only one, obviously who got locked out, so

92
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 5: that was definitely only on you, Martin.

93
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 2: Come on and honestly, Okay, for the record just in

94
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 2: case he allows me to like somehow we'll go back

95
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 2: in on occusion. Well, no, I want to get out.

96
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 2: I'm going to say it out loud. Neither one of

97
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 2: these games is started. I feel like you should be

98
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 2: able to submit your entry before the game or whatever

99
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: game sure, because I would have picked Arkansas and Illinois.

100
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: I had two entries. I was trying to do it seriously.

101
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: Anyway, anyway, anyway, yeah, go ahead.

102
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 5: Remember I told you last week, You're like, how do

103
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,159
Speaker 5: you do you know the bracket in March madness. I

104
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 5: was like, oh, I do some light reading and then,

105
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 5: you know, whatever my gut tells me, I'm gonna go

106
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 5: with it. My light reading became three hours of reading

107
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 5: the night before we had to submit our brackets.

108
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 3: So our brackets had to be in what Thursday morning?

109
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: Thursday morning at nine am, I am sure?

110
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 5: So Wednesday night, mart I spent like over three hours

111
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 5: just reading into some of the matchups and looking into

112
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 5: it because it's like I I didn't watch half of

113
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 5: these teams really to be able to give an.

114
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 3: Accurate assessment, I needed help. But it was like, what's

115
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 3: gonna convince me to feel one way or another?

116
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 5: After three hours. I definitely filled out my bracket. I

117
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 5: did my Survivor.

118
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,119
Speaker 1: Pool, looked at your palms and your quad one wins.

119
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 3: No, I did not.

120
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: I didn't.

121
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 3: I don't like that, I went, I don't like no numbers.

122
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 3: I don't like that. Give me some, give.

123
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 5: Me the reason why you think this is gonna happen,

124
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,559
Speaker 5: and don't give me numbers. I prefer convince me without

125
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 5: telling me about quad one wins because then so so

126
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 5: that's not what I go into. But I filled out

127
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 5: my bracket. And then on Thursday, when everything the madness starts,

128
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 5: I'm actually working at the Dodgers.

129
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 3: When I see that Duke is struggling. Your girl has

130
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: to pull out her phone.

131
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 5: Hopefully no one's listening to me from the Dodgers right now,

132
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 5: and I was like, what is going on? What I

133
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 5: I watched it because for a set I really thought

134
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 5: Duke was good to let it slip, and I was

135
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 5: rooting for that. Not that I didn't pick them to

136
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 5: win on my bracket, I absolutely did, but.

137
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 3: The madness if they would have lost against Sienna would

138
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 3: have been so good and I was rooting for it.

139
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 3: But they pulled it off.

140
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 1: And see, I.

141
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 2: Think that's the thing that people really have to This

142
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 2: tournament really says something about you. Ha ha, because like

143
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: I'm I used to be that guy, and I am

144
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 2: now completely turning the opposite direction. Unless you were like Sienna,

145
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 2: unless you are going to be a team like Davidson,

146
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 2: where you have a true blue next level star that

147
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 2: somebody that's gonna be just going off at the next level.

148
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: And that's the reason why.

149
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 2: And this guy tore up the Mountain Valley West Conference

150
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: or whatever, you know what I mean the entire time,

151
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 2: the entire season, and now everybody seeing him on a

152
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: national stage, right, Like that's how this tournament kind of

153
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 2: has been in the past. But sometimes now like Siana

154
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: was running a gimmick, and if the gimmick had worked

155
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 2: in that forty minutes, you know what we would have

156
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: seen today.

157
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: TCU work them, yeah, right.

158
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: And instead and so you know what, we would have

159
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: seen a nine C TCU in the sweet sixteen.

160
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: We all are worse because of it.

161
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 2: We all are worse because we get to sit there

162
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 2: and point they say, ha ha ha ha, Yes.

163
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 5: Dude, law you're you're trying to give credit to it

164
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 5: being a gimmick and not a real win when reality

165
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 5: is like, no, Duke, you should have been better prepared.

166
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 5: You shouldn't have said at halftime we thought this was

167
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:38,559
Speaker 5: gonna be a cake walk.

168
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 3: Listen, No, there's an idea.

169
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: I understand what you are saying.

170
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 3: We have to come prepared.

171
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 5: I believe even if they have a gimmick against you,

172
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 5: you better be able to stop this gimmick.

173
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 3: You are the number one seed.

174
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: But that we're getting into two different compents. No, we're not.

175
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 5: You use the word gimmick, and I don't think it

176
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 5: was a gimmick. I think it was a plan.

177
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: All right, So it was a plan.

178
00:07:58,320 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: It was a plan.

179
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: It was a plan. Maybe you know what Shire said

180
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: it that's the game. He was out coached.

181
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 3: There you go.

182
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: Cool.

183
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 2: Admittedly, so all right, and Duke won because they had

184
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: better players. However, for the sake of the tournament for

185
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 2: us watching the entertainment product, unless Siana was about to

186
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: go on some type of run of which.

187
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 4: No no, no, no, no no no no.

188
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 5: Manzi, Okay, games you could look at there's other games

189
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 5: you can still, guys, there's still other games.

190
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 3: You can This is the Elite eight, and then we're

191
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 3: gonna go see there's plenty of other games that you

192
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 3: can still.

193
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 2: The best shot and the number one overall seed in

194
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 2: the tournament would have been noted and found. Everybody across

195
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: the board would have said like, ha ha, look at

196
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 2: the madness of March and then come like, you know

197
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 2: four weeks from now, be like, man, this this final four.

198
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 1: Is really lacking juice.

199
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 5: Well, let me tell you my final four doesn't have Duke,

200
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 5: so I would have been fine. So I don't think

201
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 5: everyone would have felt the way you felt.

202
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 2: The ninety eight percent of brackets which have Duke in

203
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 2: the final four would have been like, hmm, this final

204
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 2: four is lacking a lot of juice.

205
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 3: What if everybody else was the right final three? It

206
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 3: sucks for them? Again, You there are along the way,

207
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 3: along the.

208
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 5: Way other chips have to fall for you to tell

209
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,080
Speaker 5: me that there would have been a terrible team in

210
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 5: the final four. All the other other other chips would

211
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 5: have had to fall just because Duke would have made

212
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 5: the mistake.

213
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 3: So it doesn't mean all the other teams would have.

214
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 2: Been said, is all these people out here rooting for

215
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 2: this massive the lake? David Versukaalai at the upset says

216
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 2: something more about you than anything else, because all you

217
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 2: want to do is point and laugh.

218
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 5: Point and laugh or enjoy what literally is supposed to

219
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 5: be march madness for somebody who has no attachment to

220
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 5: a school.

221
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 3: Isn't that what I'm rooting for?

222
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm rooting to watch somebody.

223
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 4: Because you have a team.

224
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 3: No, but you're rooting for your team.

225
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 5: Sure, I am watching this as I don't have a.

226
00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 4: Dog in fight.

227
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 5: I I'm just like, this is what I think is

228
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 5: gonna happen. And so for me, when you're telling me

229
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 5: the madness what it is is march madness, why wouldn't

230
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 5: I root for something like that to happen early on?

231
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 5: I'm not telling you I want the final four to

232
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 5: be a bunch of not good teams. But if Duke

233
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 5: along the way drops the ball, especially in Game one,

234
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 5: that's completely on you. You can't get mad that maybe

235
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 5: later on in a month from now, it's not the

236
00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,599
Speaker 5: final four you thought, and you're gonna blame Duke for losing.

237
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 4: In the first flow.

238
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 2: I won't have any issue with the Final four, no

239
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 2: matter which one of no matter who wins all these regions.

240
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 2: I watch sports the same way that kids go to school.

241
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 2: Attendance is mandatory. There's not a question. Like if it's

242
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 2: snowing outside, I'm watching the game. If it's raining outside,

243
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: I'm watching the game. If it's one hundred and fifteen

244
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 2: degrees outside, I'm watching the game. When it was FAU

245
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 2: in the Final four led by now Michigan coach Duftma,

246
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 2: you know what I was doing watching the game against

247
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 2: San Diego State. I didn't say, oh, this stinks, but

248
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 2: you know what I heard all across the board, this staks.

249
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 4: Where are the teams that I was supposed to see?

250
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 4: You know what they all did?

251
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 2: They all lost, and they all lost and around the

252
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 2: sweet sixth and the sweet sixteen.

253
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: So I'm not trying to hear people talk about who

254
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: it would have been so cool? Are like like high Point?

255
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: Right now?

256
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 2: High Point's gonna get waxed today, all right, Arkansas is

257
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: going to wax high Point.

258
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: You know why? Do you know why? Arkansas? Yeah? Yeah,

259
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: you know why?

260
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 2: Because Arkansas has a true blue top five NBA player

261
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 2: on the roster who's gonna have a twenty eight point

262
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 2: tennissist outing in Darius a Cup. They're gonna get a

263
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: wax today and they're head coach. He had his little

264
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes of fame Flynn claiman with his when he

265
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 2: was saying, you know what, nobody will play us, nobody

266
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: will schedule us.

267
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 3: Last year they had a nice win high Point.

268
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 1: Sure you said that with a question mark because.

269
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 3: It was they had. But you know what I'm saying,

270
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 3: ye Point last year.

271
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 1: Remember with you.

272
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 2: But the reason why I say that is because it

273
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 2: was so memorable, right, you.

274
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 3: Know what, It's one of the ones you learned from lot.

275
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 3: Every year there's a school you remember the year prior.

276
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, high Point.

277
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 2: They've won their conference tournament a few years and you know,

278
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 2: over the last few years have been in the tournament.

279
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: It's not again.

280
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 2: If you've watched the tournament first weekend, you've seen high

281
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 2: Point every so often, the same way that like Long

282
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 2: Island hasn't won a game in the tournament, but they

283
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 2: make it every so often. Right, Howard University hasn't won

284
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: a game in the tournament. They are a game in

285
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 2: the round.

286
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 6: Of sixty four if they made the first four.

287
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,200
Speaker 2: But believe made three of the last five instantly tournaments.

288
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: So you see these teams in the tournament. But when

289
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 2: a high Point coach comes out and says, oh, nobody

290
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 2: will play us.

291
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: Nobody would schedule us. And you know what, dude, if you.

292
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 2: Played, if you if they picked seven teams out of

293
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: the Big ten at random, you like pick a fishbowl

294
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 2: and take the top of the Big ten all the

295
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 2: way to the bottom. You picked seven of them at

296
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: random and replace that was seven of their conference games.

297
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 2: You know what high point we'd be doing right now,

298
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 2: playing in the NI, playing in the NIT. So you know,

299
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's cool, it's great, it's awesome, but

300
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 2: give me my upsets, my like if I want to

301
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: see an upset, really if I'm really gonna see one

302
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 2: in the round of sixteen, because those are actually good teams.

303
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 2: So like Florida Gulf Coast in the round of sixteen

304
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 2: when they're dunking over everybody. A few years back when

305
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 2: Michigan was also making the run, or Loyola of Chicago.

306
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: You know those teams that advanced, they had NBA players

307
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: on them because they were really, really good.

308
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 2: Now we're not seeing that as much. And you know,

309
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: I get it. You want to root for Siena and

310
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 2: the little guy cool.

311
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 5: I won't No, don'torry. They didn't win I know, don't

312
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,719
Speaker 5: worry so all of this annoyance.

313
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 2: You don't have to be but it's just really just

314
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: people just want to be like, ha, look at that

315
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 2: this big guy lost.

316
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: How about we all point fingers like North Carolina, who's not.

317
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 4: Even they were a sixth seed.

318
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: They weren't even a great team this year.

319
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 5: I think with that one is just they were up

320
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 5: by so many points. I mean, obviously they lost their

321
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 5: point guard and everything, so I'm with you, but they

322
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 5: were just up by what eighteen nineteen. That's what was

323
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 5: bad about that game is that's what's bad about.

324
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: That one college basketball man.

325
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 5: Things happen, Oh so things happen, but you just don't

326
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 5: want all the things to happen.

327
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 3: No, you just wanted to be a little bit more controlled.

328
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 2: Well you know, either that or don't complain about it

329
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 2: because two weeks no, I promise you, I promise you.

330
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 2: As shaky as Duke looks, because that the committee said

331
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 2: they scheduled Duke as the number one seed, thinking that

332
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: they would eventually get healthy, right because the Duke's mission,

333
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 2: they have injuries in their starting lineup.

334
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: And you know, but I will say outside of that,

335
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: they have looked.

336
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: Really weird Cambus and that's two points in the first half. Yeah,

337
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 2: you know, seventeen or fifteen in the second today. But

338
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: that's not what you really expect out of a National

339
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 2: Player of the Year type candidates.

340
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 3: Not when you want to trust moving forward, right.

341
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 2: But I will say like i'd rather and I'm was

342
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 2: as I was watching the game, I was like, are

343
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: they really about to do this? I'm really about to

344
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: have to sit here for forty eight hours and hear everybody.

345
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: Talk about, oh, the beauty of Sienna, and you know

346
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: what that would happen.

347
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: You know what happened is when Siana lost in the

348
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 2: round thirty two, Jerry McNamara would still go take the

349
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 2: job as Syracuse.

350
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 5: The conversation, I don't necessarily think would have been that.

351
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 5: I think it would have been like how Duke dropped

352
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 5: the ball.

353
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 2: No, you would have Still there's been two sides of it.

354
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 2: It definitely would have been Sienna.

355
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 5: Nobody had anticipated, like you said, Sanna to move on.

356
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 5: If they would have it, it'ld have been more on

357
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 5: the Duke side of letting it slide.

358
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 3: But hey, they didn't. They didn't.

359
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 4: They've survived twice and we'll see.

360
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 2: What now as VCU and Illinois just tipped off again

361
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 2: VC which was down by nineteen to a relatively decidedly

362
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: average I would say North Carolina team this regular, this

363
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 2: acc campaign shit with VCU can do against Illinois who

364
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 2: as Keaton Waggler Big ten Freshmen of the Year.

365
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: And again like NBA players. We'll see how that works out.

366
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: We'll keep an eye on that and all the other

367
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 2: games going on in the March madness. Certain may stevej

368
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 2: Sega at the update desking. Honestly, these days like this

369
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: where truly shine, like you know what I'm saying, Like,

370
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 2: there's some days where it's like Steve, there's nothing going

371
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 2: on with it. There's so much going on today, So

372
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 2: keep in tune for that. Coming up next, we will

373
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 2: dive into one NFL move. I'll also keep it a

374
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 2: close eye again all March madness, but this NFL move

375
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: had shakes scratching our heads and also looking forward to

376
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 2: like is this going to be a precursor to a

377
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: big deal to come, one that really needs to happen.

Speaker 2: continue with my tirade against the little guy someone.

402
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 5: You got to have a fall guy at Trucker Joe

403
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,600

Speaker 3: But I agree with you as someone who has no

405
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:09,440

Speaker 5: I'm just watching for chaos, watching for chaos.

407
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 1: Huh m hm.

408
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 3: That's the point, Isn't that? Part of the point of this.

409
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 2: Isn't the line in Batman as like the two Face goes,

410
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 2: some people just want to see the world burn.

411
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 9: Alfa said that talking about the Joker.

412
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: Talking about the Joker, thank you, but like that's what.

413
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 3: That say about the Joker for the for march madness.

414
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: That's why I hear about that like that.

415
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 3: You're the one wearing a purple backwards cap.

416
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 1: Right now, understandable.

417
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 2: I caught this at Mighty Girl, which is a fun

418
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 2: time with full of festivity.

419
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 3: So purple Joker, I'm gonna say.

420
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 2: That's me right now, you know what I'm saying. That's

421
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: just you guys rooting for chaos right again. He wants

422
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,479
Speaker 2: to sit there like the Leonardo DiCaprio meant and point

423
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 2: and laugh and laugh at other people's misfortunes and failures.

424
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 5: I think it's like you want to say that I'm

425
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 5: laughing at them, when it's like, it's not that I'm

426
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 5: laughing because you made me laugh.

427
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 3: Because you're funny.

428
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 5: It's that this is this is the point of this

429
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 5: tournament and I want to experience.

430
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: No, the point of the tournament is to try to.

431
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 3: To try and win.

432
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, and if you if you get upset by someone

433
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 5: you're not supposed to, that's on you.

434
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,239
Speaker 3: Don't take it away.

435
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,919
Speaker 2: I'm not saying take it away. I'm not saying that

436
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 2: Duke like deserve to beat Sienna. I think when the

437
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 2: ball goes up is zero zero, you got to score

438
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: more than the other team.

439
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying any of that.

440
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 2: All I'm saying is if, in fact, everyone who was

441
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,120
Speaker 2: sitting around their TVs or walking around savez Ravine sneaking,

442
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 2: looks at their phone saying, what's happening, Oh, my goodness,

443
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 2: my bracket this early?

444
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: It's only been half an hour.

445
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 3: My alrighty bus hilarious.

446
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 9: How many people watching do you think, like, have that

447
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 9: much conviction watching Duke, even if they were rooting for

448
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,919
Speaker 9: Duke to lose. You can't be all in on it

449
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 9: if you had them winning in your bracket, can you.

450
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 5: I like, I don't even know this what you're saying,

451
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 5: but I like what you're saying because just as you're

452
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 5: saying I'm over here wanting to make fun of them.

453
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 5: What about everybody that does have Duke going all the way?

454
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 5: They were probably super angry.

455
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 3: What's healthier? What's heavier? I think wanting the chaos and

456
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 3: enjoying it as healthier.

457
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 2: One team if that's the case in Duke, or you

458
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 2: could just sit there and wait for the misfortune of anyone.

459
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 2: You're just sitting there like an old lady on the

460
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 2: porch watching people drive down the street, hoping for an accident.

461
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,120
Speaker 5: But the thing with Duke, right, it's like so many

462
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 5: people have them. I think they're the team that was

463
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 5: picked most to win one of them, one of them,

464
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 5: but I think they have technically the highest.

465
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 3: That's what I mean by that.

466
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 5: And I know it wasn't by a lot, and so

467
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 5: I feel like majority of the people are not wanting

468
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 5: that for Duke, whether it's for their bracket because it's

469
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 5: their team gambling, like most people were not enjoying that

470
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 5: the way. I was like, oh, this would be so epic,

471
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 5: even though my bracket would.

472
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, you totally got what I mean, because it's like, yeah,

473
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 9: it's like, how do you it's what's your rooting interest

474
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 9: in this game? Because if you have Duke winning in

475
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 9: your bracket and you want your bracket to do better

476
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 9: than all your friends and you want to finish first

477
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 9: and win money and all that, then great, you're rooting

478
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 9: for Duke here. But it would also be so much

479
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 9: more fun if if the sixteen seed upset the one seed.

480
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: And yeah, I don't think that's fun. Yeah, that's not

481
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: fun for me.

482
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 9: I just think I think you're in the minor, right, unless.

483
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: You're gonna go on a run.

484
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 2: Unless they did, They're not They're not going to.

485
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: They had to play five.

486
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 2: Player toil forty minutes, They had no subs, There was

487
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 2: no run to be had. What are these guys supposed

488
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 2: to just be a bet that much better shape?

489
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 4: It's like you wouldn't know. It's like, oh jj Reddick

490
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 4: had the genius idea in the playoffs.

491
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 2: So you know what, I think, I'm gonna play my

492
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: best five players the whole game, like nobody else ever

493
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 2: thought of, right, right, Like I know, and plus too.

494
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 2: The thing too, you had a thirteen point lead in

495
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 2: the first half. You're telling me you can't sneak five minutes?

496
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 3: No, it was rough. Didn't they go for like six minutes?

497
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 3: Without scoring exactly.

498
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 4: Rough, exactly.

499
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 2: I gotta watch good teams go for six minutes not

500
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 2: scoring in this tournament. I gotta watch teams that barely

501
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 2: won their tom for tournament go.

502
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 4: For six minutes.

503
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,280
Speaker 3: Bett, I hear your ultimate ear what you want. And

504
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 3: in reality, if.

505
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 5: That would have happened in the first round around sixty

506
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 5: four and you go to the round in thirty two,

507
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 5: they would have been likely eliminated, and then in the

508
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 5: sweet sixteen elite and it would have been the tougher teams,

509
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 5: it would have been the better teams. You still would

510
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 5: have had a competitive Elite eight and a final four

511
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 5: even if that would have happened.

512
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: So you know, actually, you know what I heard today?

513
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 3: What'd you hear? Story time?

514
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 2: I respect this upset. I respect these types of tom Izzo.

515
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 2: I believe now today no can't be tom Izzo is

516
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,439
Speaker 2: fifty two and ten. Jason Bennetti said it a billion

517
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: times on the radio broadcast, fifty two and ten as

518
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 2: the higher seeded team in March Madness. I can respect

519
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 2: that because that's a program, that's the team that's got

520
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 2: some pros in it. And you know why they're a

521
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 2: higher sheet often because your schedule's tough in the regular season.

522
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: Now, Mary Max over there pumping her fish. We'll check

523
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 1: you know.

524
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 2: It's a little early for Izzo still around of thirty two.

525
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 2: He normally checks out in about two weeks from now.

526
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: All right, you can set your reservation's Final four. You'll

527
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 2: be maybe maybe, but that's the championship game, you'll definitely

528
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 2: be free.

529
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 4: I have hope, brother, right, but that was just poking fun.

530
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 2: But I can respect that because he's built the program,

531
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,479
Speaker 2: and that's the team that generally if they're coming as

532
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 2: a higher seed again, they're gonna go on a run.

533
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 2: They're gonna win another game and win another game. That

534
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 2: Draymond Green team was a higher he was.

535
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 1: I forget there.

536
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 2: For four freaking years, that Draymond Green team, the one

537
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 2: that I thought couldn't win anything, kept winning as like

538
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 2: a seventh seed and ended up in the lead eight

539
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 2: final four range of the bracket. Because that was a

540
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 2: team that had pros on it. I want to see excellent,

541
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 2: like I mean, I mean.

542
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: Geez, Lord of Mercy almost swore.

543
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 4: Remember like Jack gold Jack Gokie, you know what he did.

544
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 2: He ruined count of californ Are at Kentucky and now

545
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 2: Kentucky fans are no better for it. They almost waned

546
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 2: the fire that Mark Pope barely survived the round of

547
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 2: sixty four because was it Phil Martelli's Saint John's know

548
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 2: who they play?

549
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,479
Speaker 1: St who they play? Oh my gosh, who do Kentucky

550
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 1: play in the first round? With the back to back threes?

551
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:17,360
Speaker 1: It's a red team.

552
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 5: I can see if there's so many games, there's so many,

553
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 5: there's so many Santa Claire.

554

00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 2: And Mark Pope was sitting there after that talking about

557
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,199
Speaker 2: clicks in the media and all this.

558
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 1: You could tell you it was. It was a rough

559
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,320
Speaker 1: press conference. It was gonna be really rough, you know,

560
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 1: I bet you, I bet you.

561
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,199
Speaker 2: They wish that Jack Golkie had missed a few of

562
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 2: those threes and they had Darius A. Cuff junior at

563
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 2: at Kentucky instead of Arkansas. Right now, all right, let's

643
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 2: good weekend for that. Now, do you think that when

644
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: Jalen Waddle got traded from Miami to Denver.

645
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: He kind of like did that celebrate?

646
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 2: Remember Antonio Brown when he got his release from the

647
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 2: Raiders and they ran through the house. Yep, Like I

648
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 2: know that Jalen Wattle's going from the heat to the cold,

649
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 2: but like you, I feel like he had to have.

650
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: A moment of like, wait.

651
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 4: A minute, I'm going yeah, really, yes, are you kidding me?

652
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: I can't wait.

653
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 2: On the Miami side, I find this fascinating because I

654
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 2: think there's like, okay, so you can cut to it, right,

655
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 2: he's gonna you don't hawk to it.

656
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 1: You cut to it.

657
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 2: So now he nine million. I'm here for another hour,

658
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 2: two hours, or twenty minutes. You cut that, that cap

659
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 2: money on the next two years, all of that, like

660
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 2: you basically to me, I've looked at that as being

661
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 2: like almost a hey guys, this is a I'm not

662
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 2: making excuses why we're terrible, but it was a really

663
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 2: good reason our cap space is horrendous because look up

664
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 2: bad the last guy did with it.

665
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: Right, Sure, I gotta, I gotta, we gotta.

666
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 2: We're gonna take the band head off now to get

667
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 2: out of all the previous regime mistakes while we're building

668
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 2: for our future. Right, and I think like that's what

669
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 2: kind of the Dolphins plan was why they restructure h

670
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: and why they restructure Aaron Brewer today. But Jalen Waddle

671
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 2: to me, is a tier two receiver in the league.

672
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 2: Is not to me one of the best receivers when

673
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 2: you're thinking of the AJ Browns, the Jamar Chases, and

674
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson's like, I put those kind of guys in

675
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 2: a different class, but I will put Jaydon Waddle in

676
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 2: that class right beneath it. And I think in terms

677
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 2: of what Denver needs for their offense, his ability to

678
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 2: provide explosive plays is going to be huge.

679
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 5: He's gonna be he they don't have a receiver like him,

680
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 5: and so it's gonna be super beneficial. And I think

681
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 5: this is one of those rare situations where upfront it

682
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 5: looks to me like a win win win win for

683
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 5: Denver and Jalen Waddle. He's going to a contender after

684
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 5: what just went down in Miami for the last two years,

685
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 5: and I'm just putting it like nicely, so he's going

686
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 5: to a real contender.

687
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 3: Happy there.

688
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 5: For new Miami Dolphin quarterback Malik Willis, this is a

689
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 5: win because I think now it's not that he has excuses.

690
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 3: Now the leash is longer because he can be like,

691
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 3: who am I throwing the ball to two to out? Well, okay,

692
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 3: who else am I?

693
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 5: It's and so I think this just tells him that

694
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 5: he has room to grow and to make mistakes, and

695
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,280
Speaker 5: that he doesn't have to feel like he's on eggshells,

696
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 5: Like he can come into a situation where it looks

697
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 5: like they want to work with him and they want

698
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 5: to see what they.

699
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 3: Can build together. So I feel like it's a win

700
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 3: situation for Malik Willis too.

701
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: Well.

702
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 2: In terms of the Dolphins side, things like Malik Willis

703
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 2: signs year sixty nine million, I think is what the

704
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 2: was reported by all the insiders. When you actually go

705
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 2: inside the deal, you'll find it is shockingly similar and

706
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 2: guarantees to what Justin Fields got last year, which the

707
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 2: New York Jets have shown you this offseason. That's a

708
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 2: cuttable contract, right. So I think if Malik Willis plays

709
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 2: well in Miami either way, I am when when they

710
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 2: put out the sheet of Fox Sports Radios predictions, I

711
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 2: will be putting Miami Dolphins as the worst team.

712
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 3: In the worst team in the NFL.

713
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 2: But I will say that if you were to if

714
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 2: they had a better outlook, right, like, if you have

715
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 2: to pick worst team but good outlook, I would pick

716
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 2: Miami as well.

717
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 4: That makes perfect sense because the.

718
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: Deckcap money's gonna fall off.

719
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 2: You have a quarterback or you have what I would

720
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 2: deem to be a dress rehearsal for a quarterback, because

721
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 2: you're lying to yourself if you're like, oh, Malik Willis

722
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 2: is a franchise guy.

723
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: You don't know that.

724
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 4: You haven't seen that.

725
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 1: There has not been enough out there now, do you.

726
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 2: You could say I think he could be, But you're

727
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,000
Speaker 2: lying to yourself if you say he is.

728
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 5: I agree with that statement, especially now it's like they're

729
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 5: trying to see everyone's trying to find the next Sam Darnold.

730
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 5: That's what everyone's trying to find. They're not trying to

731
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:21,800
Speaker 5: find the next Tom Brady. They're not trying to find

732
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 5: the next.

733
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 1: Pat You're lying to yourself.

734
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 2: If Seattle, if when Seattle signed that contract, that across

735
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 2: the board, the common refraend was they just got their franchise. God,

736
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: it was a well good luck, right, a lot of

737
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 2: good luck, And the same thing with Minnesota, a lot

738
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 2: of good luck and it took one or two people

739
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 2: to believe.

740
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: And that's all it takes is one yes.

741
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 2: Right, But ultimately, and that's what ma Milik Willis got

742
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 2: the And he could have gone a few other places,

743
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 2: but I think he goes to Miami because.

744
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: He's comfortable with those guys in charge.

745
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 2: If they're bad and he's bad, that's an entirely coulfortable contract.

746
00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 2: If they're bad and he's good, it's an extendable contract.

747
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: Right.

748
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 2: And if they're bad and he's so so bad that

749
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 2: they want to move on from him, guess what, they'll

750
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 2: have the number one, R two or three or four

751
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 2: pick in the draft regardless, because that's what comes with being.

752
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 5: Bad, exactly, a blank canvas for him to actually see

753
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 5: what's in, what the future holds. And then if it

754
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 5: doesn't work out, he gets what forty million guaranteed, not

755
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 5: a bad deal, telling you win win win.

756
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:25,760
Speaker 2: Win, and plus too, like Miami really cool city. Denver

757
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 2: also like really cool.

758
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, with all the with all the weather, with all

759
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 3: the seasons.

760
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 2: Now, we'll say, in terms of airports, Denver's ranks near

761
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 2: the bottom.

762
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: That's well, that's the tough part. Really, airports have.

763
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,760
Speaker 2: Become a much bigger part of my city ranking recently,

764
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,239
Speaker 2: like I had to travel more.

765
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 5: It's just what did you I only went one time

766
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 5: to donversus it's it's big, is all?

767
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 4: It is, yes, and it's far.

768
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 3: Yes. Just to get from one point to the other

769
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 3: point of the airport it is well.

770
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 2: And then then when you land to Denver, to get

771
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 2: to Denver takes it out an hour. Denver guilty of

772
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 2: having a bad airport. Also, you should look up some

773
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 2: of the conspiracy.

774
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:06,880
Speaker 1: Theories around the Denver Oh yes.

775
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,919
Speaker 2: Coming up next, we'll do an episode of Sports Court

776
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 2: my Monds. He's gonna say Lebron James guilty.

777
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 3: I guarantee you probably is he is he being is

778
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 3: being trial? I tried?

779
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 4: Oh okay, good, don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

780
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,479
Speaker 4: Don't look now VCU on a twelve to two run.

781
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 4: Does Cinderella keep dancing? Hello?

782
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 1: Hello?

783
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 2: Had two big ten upsets in the first round of

784
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 2: the tournament. Although isn't an upset If Ohio State loses,

785
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 2: who's really upset?

786
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: Right? Get it? Martin? Weis joining here with Monty Villain. Yes, yes,

787
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: I am a Michigan alone.

788
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 2: You can't tell Gonzaga has been in a dog fighting

789
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 2: around the thirty two so far with Texas.

790
00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: That's part for the course with the bulldog.

791
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 2: They normally struggle in this tournament after having great regular seasons.

792
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:05,400
Speaker 1: Let's go ahead, Mass.

793
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 4: Are you ready to do a little sports court?

794
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 9: Jeez, jeez, all right, the sports court as usual. I've

795
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 9: got a list of people from around the world of

796
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 9: sports that we are going to put on trial here

797
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 9: and it's up to you two, the jury, to tell

798
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 9: me whether they are guilty or innocent. So let's jump

799
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 9: in with Kevin Willard stands accused. So Villanova men's basketball

800
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:29,240
Speaker 9: head coach Kevin Willard went viral yesterday for his halftime

801
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 9: interview during their game against Ucas State. He threatened to

802
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 9: do something on national TV. Here, I'll let you guys

803
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 9: listen for yourselves.

804
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 3: Sixteen pain points for Utah State. How do you keep

805
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 3: them out?

806
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: I'm not firing my staff because we've done that.

807
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 2: Now, yeah i am, because we've given up eight points

808
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 2: on not anyth that a bounds defense.

809
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: So going down, i'mnna do is fire them and get

810
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: a new stack.

811
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 9: All right, go do that now, bye, cous So yeah,

812
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 9: he threatened on live national TV to fire his entire

813
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 9: coaching staff for how bad they were playing in the

814
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 9: first half, and he clarified post game that it was

815
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 9: a joke, but didn't really come off that way and

816
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 9: they ended up losing anyway. So what do you guys think,

817
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,320
Speaker 9: Kevin Willard? Guilty or not guilty?

818
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 1: Absolutely guilty, put his ass in jail. Jokes are funny.

819
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: Jokes are funny, like you.

820
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: Could have said if you said with a smiling your

821
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 2: face on with you, you know, we see Tom Izzo

822
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 2: be funny. John Calipari was funny in his postgame. Obviously

823
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,760
Speaker 2: those were both wins. But those guys funny.

824
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: Not funny.

825
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 3: He literally took the line out of my mouth.

826
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 5: But absolutely guilty. She also her question was how do

827
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 5: you stop it? And that didn't answer the question. You

828
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 5: firing them doesn't stop it? So are you gonna fire them?

829
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 5: And then answer my question as to how you're gonna

830
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 5: stop it? So Noami, was it not funny? You had

831
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,839
Speaker 5: to go out of your way to try and make

832
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 5: a joke that didn't land.

833
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's a great lesson in accountability right there.

834
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, or in comedy and wasn't.

835
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 9: Comedy all right? Next up, Matt Lionert stands accused. So

836
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:56,719
Speaker 9: Former USC quarterback and Heisman winner Matt Lionert shared on

837
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 9: his podcast earlier this week that over the years, recruits,

838
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 9: several of them have asked him permission to unretire his

839
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 9: number eleven jersey. He tells them in no cert and

840
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 9: no uncertain terms, no, and that the only player that

841
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 9: he would ever retire or un retire his jersey for

842
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 9: would be his son, who currently is an SMU. I

843
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,439
Speaker 9: believe not USC. So what do you guys think, because

844
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 9: that valid Matt Lionard guilty or not guilty?

845
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 3: Not guilty, I'm innocent and pop.

846
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 5: It's ridiculous that this is even being brought up. Matt

847
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 5: Lionerd is known for college football. He did not go

848
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 5: on and have an NFL career that we talk about

849
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:37,320
Speaker 5: one tiny bit. Why ask him to unretire his number?

850
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:45,840
Speaker 5: That makes no sense. USC is guilty, no GUILTYLTU.

851
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: But not Matt Lionard. The USC is guilty.

852
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: Everyone else is guilty for thinking that Matt Lioner should

853
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 2: unretire his jersey and like the idea of like, oh

854
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 2: we can get something else. No, no, no, The point

855
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 2: is the jersey retirement. That's the whole point, you were

856
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 2: so good wearing this jersey that nobody else can wear it.

857
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 2: Pick a new freaking number. What's wrong with this new generation?

858
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 3: For ill? And he was our four years Like, stop,

859
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 3: get out?

860
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, next up. Joe Burrow stands accused. So you guys

861
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 9: know about the flag football tournament going on right now

862
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 9: with Tom Brady, Logan Paul and all these players and stuff.

863
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 9: It's taking place today, but yesterday a clip from a

864
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 9: practice made its way to social media, where Logan Paul

865
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 9: can be seen intercepting a pass in the end zone

866
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 9: from Joe Burrow. The internet is flaming Burrow right now

867
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 9: for it. But what do you guys think in the

868
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:38,800
Speaker 9: sports court? Guilty or not guilty?

869
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow not guilty.

870
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:43,880
Speaker 3: These allegations are false.

871
00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,800
Speaker 9: He threw an interception to Logan Paul.

872
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: He's not playing football, He's playing flag football is an

873
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 1: entirely different thing.

874
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 2: That's like saying, oh, you know what, Oh, Kobe Bryant

875
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 2: missed a shot into the trash can.

876
00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 4: It's an entirely different thing. Has nothing to do with

877
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 4: ability to actlutely play real sports.

878
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 3: Rest not guilty.

879
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:06,239
Speaker 1: I did not do it.

880
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,799
Speaker 5: Extra not guilty because I didn't know this was from

881
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:09,760
Speaker 5: a practice.

882
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 3: We're talking about practice right now. That's a game, not again,

883
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 3: We're talking about practice. And that's what people were freaking

884
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 3: out about because I.

885
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 5: Saw it and I was like, oh, but I did

886
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 5: not know it was a practice.

887
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 3: Oh super innocent. What are we talking about?

888
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 1: All right?

889
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 9: Well, squeeze in one more here. You guys mentioned it

890
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 9: at the top of Duke head coach John Shire stands accused.

891
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 9: So Duke played Sienna in the first round of the

892
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 9: NCL Double A tournament yesterday and they looked very unprepared,

893
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 9: and there were quotes coming out of the game at

894
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 9: halftime where the players and coaches alike pretty much admitted

895
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:40,480
Speaker 9: they thought it was going to be a cakewalk and

896
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 9: they were not prepared. So John Shire, guilty or not guilty?

897
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 3: Guilty because you weren't prepared.

898
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 1: His asking Not guilty?

899
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:53,279
Speaker 2: You know why, because I'm sure because it's demastating my case.

900
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 2: He's not guilty because I know for a fact that

901
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 2: Greg Paul, I'm not Greg Paul. It's Greg Jerry McNamara

902
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 2: played more than five players all year.

903
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,399
Speaker 1: That was a gimmick that Siana Wren.

904
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 5: I'm glad, dude, Wan and it almost.

905
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 1: Sports radio radio.

Speaker 2: That's why we'ber broadcasting live Fox Sports Radio. March Madness

907

00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: I've already been happening. March is on the leftover thought.

918
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: You know what, it's a good point.

919
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 5: It's a good it's a good point, but you know

922
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 3: How how is your bracket going, Martin?

923
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 4: So right now you filled one out? I did out one,

924
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 4: just one, just one.

925
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: I'm a one I've always my whole life been a

926
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 2: one bracket guy.

927
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 1: Yes, like I don't, I do not.

928
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 2: Talking about your multiple brackets is identical twins with talking

929
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 2: about your fantasy team The.

930
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,840
Speaker 4: Only people who really care.

931
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 1: Are those also involved with you.

932
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:37,439
Speaker 2: Sure right, like we all have knowledge of what's happening, right,

933
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,959
Speaker 2: But the only people who really care is if your

934
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 2: loss is going to become my win again, because this

935
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 2: tournament really does bring out the best at athletes, but

936
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 2: the worst in fans.

937
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: It's a lot of pointing and laughing, a lot of

938
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 1: ha ha, you're idiot. How could you have picked Gonzaga?

939
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: Don't you know they always flame out and around the

940
00:42:58,640 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: thirty two.

941
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,800
Speaker 2: As they're trying to storing back against this three eleven

942
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 2: seed Texas team. Right now, Texas up sixty nine, sixty

943
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 2: six with two minutes left.

944
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,359
Speaker 1: But Moncy, I.

945
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 2: Watched more college basketball this year than I have in

946
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 2: quite some time, and I decided to do kind of

947
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:18,840
Speaker 2: a thought experience with my brackets.

948
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 3: Okay, would you do explain it?

949
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 2: I picked all chalk, Okay, and I don't mean mostly

950
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 2: chalk like some people would be like.

951
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I picked all chalk, Oh yeah.

952
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,920
Speaker 2: But I had high Point over Wisconsin because you know

953
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 2: high Point, you know that guy you shooting from the logo,

954
00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 2: that Chase Johnson kid, you shoot for the logo you know,

955
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 2: you know doesn't take two's you know, as everybody's reading

956
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 2: up are doing there, Monty Bilanos like reading the time.

957
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 2: I actually watched High Point play this year in the

958
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 2: in their conference urment. I forget which conference it was,

959
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,879
Speaker 2: but it was one of those I'm flipping around. Yeah,

960
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 2: I didn't pick a single upset.

961
00:43:57,719 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 3: Wow, the whole way through.

962
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:00,040
Speaker 1: The entire way through.

963
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 2: The entire way through exciting. So every upset that does happen.

964
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 3: Is affecting you, affects my bracket.

965
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 2: Now, this was like, really it was me putting my

966
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,359
Speaker 2: theory that I debuted the top of the show an

967
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 2: hour ago. But you can hear on the podcast, which

968
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 2: I will post when we get done. They're really putting

969
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,800
Speaker 2: that theory to test. Yeah, because if the clock didn't

970
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 2: hit midnight at forty minutes into the first game, it

971
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 2: almost just certainly hitting midnight forty minutes after forty minutes

972
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 2: of the second one, you're not making it out of

973
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 2: the second weekend, Cenderella, You're.

974
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 3: Not too bad. I don't have to scroll too far.

975
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 5: Down to find you, and so to the point, you

976
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 5: don't have just you don't have to scroll it all

977
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 5: to find me.

978
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,919
Speaker 1: You don't have to scroll it all where you am.

979
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 5: I am tied for second, but I'm just I'm out

980
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 5: of the names.

981
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 3: I am the sixth name.

982
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,799
Speaker 1: You're the sixth name tied for second.

983
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,319
Speaker 3: Correct, So you don't. I didn't have to scroll that

984
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 3: far for you, though, Martin, just a little scroll, you

985
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:01,839
Speaker 3: know what, and then I found you.

986
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 2: So hey, I'm reminded of a times three hundred and

987
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 2: sixty five days ago today when I was doing radio

988
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 2: show with the young man named Steve Hartman him he.

989
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,400
Speaker 1: Was living the dreams.

990
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, because on the first day of the March Madness Tournament,

991
00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:26,880
Speaker 2: he had the perfect bracket sixteen for sixteen, never been

992
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 2: done before in Steve Hartman history.

993
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 1: You know what he did do nothing? I know what

994
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: he did after that squat.

995
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,640
Speaker 2: You know what he won as as the National Tournament,

996
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:44,440
Speaker 2: National Tournament National Champion was crowned and Todd Golden the

997
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 2: Florida Gators lifted the trophy.

998
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,919
Speaker 1: You know what Steve Hartman did. He went back to work.

999
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 4: Yes, because he didn't win.

1000
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,760
Speaker 2: Jack, So I'll remind you who was in first today

1001
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:57,319
Speaker 2: has very little to.

1002
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,439
Speaker 5: Do absolutely with the entire This is very, very true.

1003
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 5: It's constantly moving up and down.

1004
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 2: Yes, all your little upsets and all that was cute,

1005
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 2: But in is about to tell us why my bracket

1006
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 2: will eventually be the answer sheet.

1007
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 9: Well, there's something interesting happening in the tournament right now

1008
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:21,000
Speaker 9: because since nineteen eighty five, which is when they officially

1009
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,799
Speaker 9: expanded it to sixty four teams, only seven times have

1010
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 9: Seeds thirteen through sixteen gone completely winless in the opening

1011
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 9: round of the tournament. This year marked the second season

1012
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 9: in a row that had happened, and before this year,

1013
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 9: it had never happened in back to back tournaments. So

1014
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 9: my question to you guys is do you think the

1015
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,320
Speaker 9: age and the era of Cinderella stories in March Madness

1016
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 9: is coming to an end?

1017
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:51,319
Speaker 5: I think the simple answer would be yes, right. I

1018
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 5: do think that the separation of the schools now is

1019
00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,920
Speaker 5: going to be bigger and bigger because of money and

1020
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 5: who has it, and it's just the way it is.

1021
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,760
Speaker 3: But I do think it's not like we're never gonna

1022
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 3: see it. I just think it's gonna be more special

1023
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 3: when it.

1024
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 9: Does happen fewer and far between.

1025
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I think it's like we're never gonna see it.

1026
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 5: I just think every year you used to see something.

1027
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's gonna be like that.

1028
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 4: I it sucks, but well looks like h.

1029
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna yep.

1030
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:29,720
Speaker 2: Two point one seconds left, Texas puts the ball into basket.

1031
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 1: Seventy four to sixty eight.

1032
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 2: Oh no, there it goes. Texas advances to the sweet sixteen.

1033
00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 1: Yep.

1034
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 2: Now, this is what I find interesting, Ian, because to

1035
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 2: your point you just.

1036
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:48,799
Speaker 1: Said, no, thirteen seeds through sixteen seeds have won thus far.

1037
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 2: Now, one of the teams that advanced was Utah Utah State, right,

1038
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:58,480
Speaker 2: which is by my money, a mid major. Yeah, and

1039
00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 2: they were playing Villino, which is a college basketball power,

1040
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 2: but not a you know, they're not their basketball power,

1041
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 2: but you know they don't have they're not playing football in.

1042
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 1: The same way basketball as they're big thing.

1043
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:13,480
Speaker 2: But when I look at this Texas team, the team

1044
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,799
Speaker 2: that went through the SEC, which was a you know,

1045
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 2: decent league this year, and I see them as an

1046
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 2: eleven seed, I think this.

1047
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: Might be your new level of Cinderella, Like the.

1048
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 2: Idea that is going to be the Saint Peters and

1049
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 2: the high Points.

1050
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 1: I know, I keep talking about them, they actually have

1051
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 1: a shot.

1052
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,439
Speaker 9: But you know, the you know, Loyola Chicago, Loyola.

1053
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,959
Speaker 2: Chicago, but no, Loyola Chicago had pro Yeah, they're actually

1054
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 2: pretty good. Yeah, well they had the Denzel Valentine or

1055
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:46,000
Speaker 2: his older brother, the Valentine kid that anyway, they had

1056
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 2: pro pros on that roster and the guys that ended

1057
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 2: up going into the NBA and going on to their careers.

1058
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 2: But uh, Florida, Gulf Coast, those schools where you saw

1059
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 2: like just really good systems advancing, right, I don't I

1060
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 2: think that like it used to be a strategy of

1061
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:07,479
Speaker 2: can the Princeton offense beat this future lottery pick?

1062
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:08,359
Speaker 1: Right? Can this?

1063
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 2: Can we backcut this team to death? Can we fundamental

1064
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 2: this team to death? I think those are done well.

1065
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 2: I think that's what Siana tried to do against Duke,

1066
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:19,760
Speaker 2: is like we're gonna fundamental this team to death because

1067
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 2: they all have a ton of studs. Yeah, and we

1068
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 2: are kind of in a bad spot.

1069
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 5: Which is what Utah State did absolue against Villanova.

1070
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:26,919
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1071
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 3: No, that was a crazy game.

1072
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,560
Speaker 5: But I think Martin, I think Martin is right where

1073
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 5: it's like that's gonna be the Cinderella stories moving forward,

1074
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 5: not the ones where we used.

1075
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:41,359
Speaker 2: To Yeah, you know, uh plucky underdog Texas, but what

1076
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 2: do you what do you guys think is like the

1077
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,760
Speaker 2: reason for it, because what's really changed is it just nil?

1078
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,399
Speaker 3: I think it's money and who has it?

1079
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:50,200
Speaker 1: Well the money.

1080
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,240
Speaker 2: I think it's not just money and who has it?

1081
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 2: It's more like to now the free agency aspect of

1082
00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:02,399
Speaker 2: it all. Like if you you A B had the

1083
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 2: player of the year in the Big ten on the

1084
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:09,120
Speaker 2: roster last year he actual Lendenburgh, right, Michigan afford a

1085
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,319
Speaker 2: Michigan for Ford. You know what they paid for him

1086
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 2: probably cost the entire UAB roster, right, So like, yeah,

1087
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 2: he's gonna go to a school like Michigan, But that

1088
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 2: made that means like especially in the tournament. That was

1089
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 2: kind of my argument, Like it's Steph Curry Davison, right,

1090
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,720
Speaker 2: And Stephan may be a unique personality, but just imagine

1091
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 2: that level of player at that level of school. He

1092
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 2: goes on a tournament run, does he ever come back

1093
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 2: to He never goes back. I'm reminded of Kevin mccullor.

1094
00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:38,319
Speaker 1: I believe his name was. He was balling for Oral

1095
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:42,320
Speaker 1: Roberts with Max As. He had a funny A B.

1096
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:43,920
Speaker 1: S A MS was.

1097
00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 2: His last name was like ab Smith, but it was

1098
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,560
Speaker 2: like Abe Smith, he had play and then anyway he

1099
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 2: chanced for the Texas the Colors transfer the tax attack.

1100
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 2: Those were the two guys that took Oral Roberts on

1101
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:57,920
Speaker 2: this on this run through the postseason through March Madness.

1102
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:00,839
Speaker 1: They end up with both going other places.

1103
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:03,520
Speaker 2: And three years prior they would have gone back to

1104
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:06,879
Speaker 2: school because they both had eligibility left. They were going

1105
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,360
Speaker 2: back to Oral Roberts more than likely because you couldn't

1106
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:11,799
Speaker 2: transfer the same way. And now maybe that team goes

1107
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 2: on another run in the tournament.

1108
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 5: So it's who has more money, That's what it is.

1109
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 3: They're going.

1110
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:22,480
Speaker 5: If there is a small school that has a star

1111
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 5: that comes out, they're gonna leave, right.

1112
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:29,279
Speaker 2: But what Kentucky offered the same player, actually Lindenbergh's seven like.

1113
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:33,360
Speaker 1: Million more Michigan and they didn't get them.

1114
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 3: I'm saying, so has the money to try and go

1115
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:37,839
Speaker 3: in there and fight for him.

1116
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 2: But just because you spent as a fan of baseball,

1117
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 2: you'll you'll agree with this. Simply because you spend the

1118
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 2: money doesn't guarantee wins by any stretch.

1119
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:47,680
Speaker 3: I mean, tell that to the Dodgers the last.

1120
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 4: Two years, right, But say it to the Mets.

1121
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 5: Sure, and say it to the Padres. But the thing

1122
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 5: is that you're now, it's not just about money. With

1123
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,840
Speaker 5: baseball and baseball, the best team doesn't win. I know

1124
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,360
Speaker 5: that the Dodgers have just went. But in baseball, you

1125
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 5: know that the best team doesn't necessarily win the same

1126
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 5: for the tournament because it's a one knockoff. But in reality,

1127
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,399
Speaker 5: in basketball, you do a series, the best team tends

1128
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:05,319
Speaker 5: to win well if you.

1129
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 1: If you play over several times. But that's not what

1130
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 1: this is.

1131
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 3: But that's not what this is.

1132
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 5: But you are the teams that have the money are

1133
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,040
Speaker 5: going to have the largest advantage.

1134
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:16,200
Speaker 4: Sure, and now the gap is getting bigger, but that.

1135
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,600
Speaker 2: The best st But simply because like we watch these teams,

1136
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 2: there's a reason why we see these teams every year

1137
00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 2: fall and it's simply like but the point that I'm making,

1138
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 2: the reason why it's not simply just about who has

1139
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,320
Speaker 2: the money. It's about because it's got to do roster

1140
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,640
Speaker 2: building and the chemistry of it all. And it's like

1141
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 2: like UCLA got a ton of like a ton of

1142
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,839
Speaker 2: basketball money and they weren't able to keep a daymorrow, right,

1143
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 2: So it's like it's a difference between like, you also

1144
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 2: have to build an environment in which people want to

1145
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 2: stay and people want to return, and you know, and

1146
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:50,080
Speaker 2: that's why I also say, like like along with those

1147
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 2: high price transfers, there's a ton of people. There are

1148
00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:54,720
Speaker 2: a ton of players, i should say from the Michigan

1149
00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 2: team that have stuck through a coaching change, and so

1150
00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 2: you also have to have an environment where people want

1151
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 2: to day. It's not just about the money, because it's

1152
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 2: just about the money money Kentucky would have everybody.

1153
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,719
Speaker 3: One totally agree what you're saying. But I do think

1154
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:10,120
Speaker 3: that now it is more so not for everybody.

1155
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,000
Speaker 5: I totally get what you're saying, but more so now

1156
00:53:13,440 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 5: there are some people it is just about the money,

1157
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,479
Speaker 5: you know, Like it's it's it's different than it.

1158
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 3: Was not that long ago.

1159
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:23,240
Speaker 2: But that doesn't you have to show me the direct

1160
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 2: correlation to spending and winning.

1161
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,520
Speaker 5: This spend well, because it's like we can look can

1162
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,359
Speaker 5: we not look at like the teams that have spent

1163
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 5: the most money and see that they're probably in this tournament.

1164
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 4: They're probably having success, sure.

1165
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 2: But that's not it is not a guarantee by any stretch.

1166
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:41,879
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, Duke has spending.

1167
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 1: More on their roster than Michigan, and Michigan has walked through.

1168
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:46,200
Speaker 1: Obviously they lost head to head.

1169
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 2: But Michigan has more forty point wins this year than

1170
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,399
Speaker 2: they have ever, you know, saying like they have ever

1171
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,719
Speaker 2: at least in the last They have more forty point

1172
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:55,839
Speaker 2: wins this year than any team I think in Big

1173
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 2: Ten history has had forty point wins. And if yet,

1174
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 2: they spent a ton of money on the roster, they

1175
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 2: also developed a ton of guys.

1176
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,800
Speaker 1: Due is spending way more on their roster than Michigan.

1177
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 2: Like you know what I'm saying, Like these are school

1178
00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:10,160
Speaker 2: like schools that do that all they do is basketball.

1179
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 2: Are a school like Kentucky is dropping way more on

1180
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 2: their roster than some of these other like than some

1181
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:16,439
Speaker 2: of these schools in the Big Ten.

1182
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 4: So it's just it's just it.

1183
00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 2: Doesn't all And look at the schools at the SEC

1184
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:25,080
Speaker 2: that have these massive budgets for football and don't necessarily

1185
00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 2: come through all the The LSU spent how much money

1186
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,200
Speaker 2: with Brian Kelly and nothing to show for it.

1187
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,280
Speaker 9: So it seems like you're saying you have to spend

1188
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 9: a certain amount to kind of like get in, yes,

1189
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,720
Speaker 9: you know, to to kind of like punch your ticket

1190
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,000
Speaker 9: and then once you're in there, it's more reliant on

1191
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 9: coaching absolutely, eme and all the like, more nurture stuff absolutely.

1192
00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 5: So you have to have a certain amount of money

1193
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:46,800
Speaker 5: to be able to compete, but there's going to be

1194
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 5: schools who don't have that to be able to compete.

1195
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:50,839
Speaker 2: But in a tournament like this, if you win your

1196
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 2: conference tournament, you're in the room with the people with

1197
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 2: the money, right, and you're there, and at that it's

1198
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:57,399
Speaker 2: all on the same This are all on the level

1199
00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 2: playing field. That's like the coach from High Point Caps

1200
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:01,719
Speaker 2: say the other day, no one will play me in

1201
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 2: the regular season, Well here and now we gotta play.

1202
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 2: And if they go on a run, guess what, he'll

1203
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 2: be a legend. I just think they're gonna get smacked.

1204
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,720
Speaker 2: That's really all boys don't But like you could build

1205
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 2: just a few years ago, nil Era, we saw FAU

1206
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 2: in the final four, schools like San Diego State in

1207
00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 2: the final.

1208
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,640
Speaker 3: Four, but that was at the start of nil No.

1209
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:22,960
Speaker 5: Like I feel like I feel like every year it's

1210
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,720
Speaker 5: going to start and it's gonna get worse and worse.

1211
00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:27,440
Speaker 5: And I think we're just seeing the beginning of it,

1212
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,280
Speaker 5: I would, and I get totally the way he explained

1213
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,640
Speaker 5: what you're saying. Totally, you punch your ticket to get

1214
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 5: into just being the bidding war, and then from there

1215
00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,719
Speaker 5: it depends on your actual program and what you have.

1216
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I also think too like too much bad

1217
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:47,440
Speaker 2: spending could burn you, like I don't know what, like

1218
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:51,880
Speaker 2: for football to basketball. Sure, but like North Carolina is

1219
00:55:51,880 --> 00:55:55,240
Speaker 2: not not spending on their basketball roster, and under Hubert

1220
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,759
Speaker 2: Davis they have not outside of the one national championship

1221
00:55:58,760 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 2: appearance which they lost.

1222
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 1: They're not meeting what the day feel is the standard right.

1223
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 2: You have a lot of these schools like a Duke

1224
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:09,759
Speaker 2: or a North Carolina in basketball, or Alabama and football

1225
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 2: that are now having trouble meeting what is deemed to

1226
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:15,480
Speaker 2: be like the standard right that has been set by

1227
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 2: everybody because they're supposed to win every year, they're supposed

1228
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:20,600
Speaker 2: to be in it every single year. Those schools are

1229
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:24,280
Speaker 2: also the richest and spending the most, and they're running

1230
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 2: into all types of roadblocks, you know.

1231
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:26,919
Speaker 1: What I'm saying.

1232
00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 2: So it's like it's both the closest analogies I can

1233
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:31,360
Speaker 2: say is baseball.

1234
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, it seems like more more teams are able to

1235
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:37,719
Speaker 5: compete with the top dogs of the past, but the

1236
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 5: gap is also getting bigger from the ones that can't compete.

1237
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:47,280
Speaker 2: Manci, well, twenty years ago I had a revelation about

1238
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,759
Speaker 2: and it shaped my life and everything about it. And

1239
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 2: it happened on this weekend, and it actually, you know,

1240
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 2: obviously I should do it with sports, which is the

1241
00:56:57,200 --> 00:56:59,280
Speaker 2: reason why I'm here, But like, I had a revelation

1242
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,800
Speaker 2: and it made me realize something very special about this weekend,

1243
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:08,319
Speaker 2: in particular that no other weekend has. We'll get to

1244

Speaker 1: Congratulations to you. That's a nice shirt.

1267
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:16,640
Speaker 3: I feel like we should tell them what it is.

1268
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:17,440
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1269
00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 2: I think they should go to the YouTube channel to

1270
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 2: find out, you know what I mean, and the whole

1271
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:25,560
Speaker 2: point to drive.

1272
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:26,120

1273
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,280
Speaker 3: Fine, or we'll post a picture or something.

1274
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 2: But yes, it'll post a picture because I guess maybe

1275
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:31,920
Speaker 2: it might be hard a few days later if you

1276
00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:33,200
Speaker 2: listen to the podcast.

1277
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:34,360
Speaker 3: Back you know what I'm saying. So we'll post a

1278
00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,120
Speaker 3: picture because it is cute.

1279
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:39,960
Speaker 2: It'll be at Monty Belanos at Martin Weiss to see

1280
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:43,560

1281
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 2: No find it?

1282
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 1: Imagine to so MANSI the year was twenty twelve.

1283
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:57,520
Speaker 2: I'm watching the Big ten tournament in Spanish class.

1284
00:58:57,720 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 5: Nice, We're back to Spanish class, right back to you

1285
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,360
Speaker 5: had a lot of relevant revelations in Spanish.

1286
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 2: Class of things that you a lot that wasn't happening

1287
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:12,040
Speaker 2: in Spanish, right, that's part of the problem. I'm sitting

1288
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:14,560
Speaker 2: there watching the Big Ten Tournament. Michigan is an eight

1289
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:18,280
Speaker 2: seed in the Big Ten Tournament. Okay, they in other words,

1290
00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 2: they stink.

1291
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:22,800
Speaker 1: Two years before Trey Burke.

1292
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 2: And Evan Turner hits a half court shot to knock

1293
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:30,600
Speaker 2: Michigan out of the Big Tenth, summis they had won

1294
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:32,320
Speaker 2: the tournament withould have made March Madness.

1295
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,040
Speaker 1: Was at that moment that I realized.

1296
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:40,520
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to either stop caring about sports or

1297
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,720
Speaker 2: find a way to get paid to care about sports.

1298
00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:49,840
Speaker 2: Because I had about a C minus in Spanish, and

1299
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 2: see I would have been like huh at the time.

1300
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,840
Speaker 1: Now, ironically enough, pretty damn good at it.

1301
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 2: But at the time, if you gave me a test

1302
00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 2: and so to me a I realize that this weekend

1303
01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 2: for me, it is the best weekend in sports. This

1304
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:09,720
Speaker 2: opening weekend tournament of March Madness. The round of sixty four,

1305
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,320
Speaker 2: all of that just fast paced from sun up to sundown,

1306
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 2: followed by the Round of thirty two, which hopefully has

1307
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 2: some really good teams you can watch grind it out.

1308
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:22,760
Speaker 2: That's my pick for the best weekend in sports. But

1309
01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 2: I wanted to try to like run through a few

1310
01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:28,120
Speaker 2: of them if our producer Ian is available to do so.

1311
01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 2: I wanted to try to run through a few of

1312
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 2: the different weekends in sports and see where everybody else

1313
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 2: stacks up. Because while I know that I have the

1314
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 2: correct answer, I feel like this is a topic of debate.

1315
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:44,160
Speaker 3: I think yours is a very common answer.

1316
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1317
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 5: I would say a lot of people would say this

1318
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:47,800
Speaker 5: is like the best weekend, And I'm telling you.

1319
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,280
Speaker 3: It's growing on me every every year a little bit more.

1320
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:52,880
Speaker 3: I enjoy it. I enjoy it more and more. But

1321
01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:57,360
Speaker 3: for me, well, I think I run He's gonna run

1322
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:57,880
Speaker 3: through them.

1323
01:00:58,040 --> 01:01:02,360
Speaker 9: Oh, I don't have some in front of me.

1324
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 4: But off the top of the.

1325
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:06,200
Speaker 1: Help is not going to run through some of them.

1326
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:10,080
Speaker 2: The super Bowl, say, Conference championship weekend is better than

1327
01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 2: super Bowl weekend to me because you get two really

1328
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 2: good teams.

1329
01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:16,240
Speaker 5: Like if you're saying, are you mean sorry before we

1330
01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 5: go through this, you mean literally week end? Because I

1331
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:23,520
Speaker 5: feel like there are you know, sometimes like opening day

1332
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 5: of baseball that is a great day, but it might

1333
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 5: it's not ever a weekend.

1334
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,280
Speaker 3: But that in itself is its own thing. The Masters

1335
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 3: has a weekend opening day.

1336
01:01:31,760 --> 01:01:35,120
Speaker 1: Is not ever on a weekend shually always is it always.

1337
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 3: Doing the week Okay, I'm pretty sure.

1338
01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 5: I feel like maybe they're home open like the day

1339
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 5: that it's like, this is a day.

1340
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 2: The home opener could be on the set, all right,

1341
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:46,240
Speaker 2: so but I'll allow the forty eight hours.

1342
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 1: You get what I'm saying, like the home opener.

1343
01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:51,000
Speaker 5: Well, because to me, I was gonna say it my favorite,

1344
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 5: my favorite time of because I have my memories and whatnot.

1345
01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:58,000
Speaker 5: I love the NBA during Christmas because I like.

1346
01:01:58,200 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 3: The holiday aspect of it.

1347
01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:02,040
Speaker 5: I like the like even though it's not that it's

1348
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 5: snowing here in LA, but there is a winter aspect

1349
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 5: to it. I like that there's not a lot of

1350
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 5: traffic because people are spending time with their family. And

1351
01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 5: I like that it's the NBA because I don't need

1352
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:12,440
Speaker 5: to be sitting in my seat.

1353
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:13,000
Speaker 3: The entire day.

1354
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,040
Speaker 5: I could just have it in the background and enjoy

1355
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 5: it and enjoy the day. I feel like it's more

1356
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:23,240
Speaker 5: relaxing than watching Thanksgiving football games, like everyone's on edge

1357
01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 5: and it's fun, but you're also, you know, invested in

1358
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,440
Speaker 5: a different way. I feel like during the Christmas Games,

1359
01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:31,400
Speaker 5: I'm just chilling and it's vibing, family food, everyone's having

1360
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:33,960
Speaker 5: a good time. Feels like the holidays, and I if

1361
01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:35,960
Speaker 5: I missed the first quarter, I'm not upset about it.

1362
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think that answer just solidified why mine

1363
01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 2: is better.

1364
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 9: Okay, Well, it's like, if you're going by weekend specifically, yes,

1365
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 9: then that's a little more specific. But if you're going

1366
01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 9: like just days of sports in the year, doesn't everybody wants.

1367
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 1: To be a stickler?

1368
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:54,560
Speaker 4: This is the best changes your answer.

1369
01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:59,760
Speaker 2: This is the best seventy two hour window that exists.

1370
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:01,640
Speaker 3: And thank you for specifying.

1371
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:03,640
Speaker 5: Goodness, we didn't know it's going to be that hard

1372
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 5: for you to spend.

1373
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,200
Speaker 1: How many asterisks does it take?

1374
01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:08,880
Speaker 9: Okay, well, there's also it was just a weekend.

1375
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:10,160
Speaker 3: There's three events on the weekends.

1376
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 9: The New Year's Day Bowl games come to.

1377
01:03:12,960 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 3: Mind as well, which isn't always on a weekend.

1378
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:19,120
Speaker 9: Day at the Masters, that's always a week that is

1379
01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:19,720
Speaker 9: a weekend.

1380
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,600
Speaker 2: So you's like, you like Master Sunday better than No,

1381
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 2: We're just trying to give you that there's not You

1382
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:30,240
Speaker 2: can't say weekend because there's not that many actual weekend

1383
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,240
Speaker 2: we have established that their sporting events happened during the

1384
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:33,760
Speaker 2: week as well.

1385
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:39,880
Speaker 9: There's Equinox Day, equinoxen Off. Yeah, but yeah, it's that

1386
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 9: special day each year when all four major leagues in

1387
01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 9: the US are an action on the same day. That

1388
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 9: usually happens in October or November.

1389
01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:48,680
Speaker 2: Oh, since I know it's just super locked into the

1390
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 2: Florida Panthers playing the Minnesota wild.

1391

1393
01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:02,680
Speaker 9: in the NFL it's kind of become like Thanksgiving for

1394
01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:03,280
Speaker 9: Black Friar.

1395
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 3: It really has, so you could.

1396
01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 9: View that as a seventy two hour I would prefer

1397
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 9: that over March maddness personally, because football.

1398
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:13,080

Speaker 2: a good game on Wednesday or a good game on Thursday.

1401
01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 1: But you know what, all that does. It kills one

1402
01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,919
Speaker 1: o'clock on Sunday. It just nukes it.

1403
01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 2: And all now we're stuck watching you know, Broncos, Raiders

1404
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:34,000
Speaker 2: and then Jaguars, you know, whoever and it's always these

1405
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 2: terrible games because the Bills and Chiefs played on Wednesday,

1406
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:40,560
Speaker 2: and then the forty nine ers, the Seahawks played on

1407
01:04:40,640 --> 01:04:44,920
Speaker 2: Thanksgiving Day, along with the Lions and the Cowboys, along

1408
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 2: with whoever else is a top the AFC and a

1409
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:50,280
Speaker 2: middling NFC team. By the time you get to the weekend,

1410
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 2: it's cooked. Steve de Seger, do you have any art?

1411
01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:04,560
Speaker 2: That's why this isn't the best weekend? Forty eight hours

1412
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:07,560
Speaker 2: seventy to whoever you want to qualify it. This is

1413
01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:08,920
Speaker 2: the best thing. This is the best time of the

1414
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 2: year for me.

1415
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:13,880
Speaker 10: The best weekend is spending time with the two of you. Ah,

1416
01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:17,360
Speaker 10: it's every weekend. It's no I would say the divisional

1417
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,240
Speaker 10: playoffs weekend for the NFL would have to be update.

1418
01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 1: It will have to take this take the cake over here.

1419
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:27,480
Speaker 10: This is pretty good, but divisional playoffs you get more

1420
01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:32,720
Speaker 10: cream of the cracky. What saves March madness, if that's

1421
01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:36,360
Speaker 10: the proper word, is that you have so many games,

1422
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:38,840
Speaker 10: kind of like on a college football Saturday. There are

1423
01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 10: so many games. There tend to be a few good.

1424
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 1: A little bit of madness to make it mad.

1425
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,760
Speaker 10: People don't realize that on a typical college football day,

1426
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 10: there might be forty games that you care about. So

1427
01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:52,600
Speaker 10: you know, if there were four, my goodness, did you

1428
01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:56,439
Speaker 10: see there were four great games? This was phenomenal. Yeah,

1429
01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 10: that would be the other one. But this is pretty good.

1430
01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:02,800
Speaker 2: I will say the thing about that's kind of the

1431
01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,360
Speaker 2: sneaky thing I've realized about the one o'clock window in

1432
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 2: the NFL. So we all talk about was a good

1433
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 2: one o'clock window, Like the more you pull Wednesday, Thursday,

1434
01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:13,840
Speaker 2: Black Friday games.

1435
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:15,560
Speaker 1: And there's not eight or nine games in the morning.

1436
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 2: A lot of times whether it's a good one o'clock

1437
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,000
Speaker 2: window depends on how many teams are playing at one o'clock.

1438
01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 2: If you have nine teams playing, our ten teams playing

1439
01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 2: pretty good, you.

1440
01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:29,560
Speaker 1: Have, you know, say a little few less not so much.

1441
01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:33,440
Speaker 10: And the way they're streaming and spreading out the schedule

1442
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 10: and squeezing every ounce, every dollar out of that TV contract,

1443
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,800
Speaker 10: will have fewer games up against each other. I mean

1444
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,040
Speaker 10: they're selling a brand new package of games up against

1445
01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:47,760
Speaker 10: each other. We're going to be starting on a Wednesday

1446
01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,480
Speaker 10: night in the NFL this year, and then I think

1447
01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:52,919
Speaker 10: the Australia games on a Thursday night right after.

1448
01:06:53,200 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 2: You remember when like Wednesday night was like cute little

1449
01:06:56,120 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 2: maction football, so they could get like a window you

1450
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:01,439
Speaker 2: can see each Michigan play Bowling Green.

1451
01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:05,680
Speaker 10: Anyway, Yeah, if there wasn't actual, you know, laws in

1452
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 10: the country about going up against the whole Friday night

1453
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:11,440
Speaker 10: lights and things like that, they would do it. But

1454
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 10: the way the calendar is, they can't have the Thursday

1455
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:17,720
Speaker 10: and Friday early September. It's just an oddity. So who cares,

1456
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:20,040
Speaker 10: it's the NFL. They'll have a Wednesday and a Thursday.

1457
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:21,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad they when they wrote it down like that,

1458
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:23,240
Speaker 1: they couldn't have seen what was coming.

1459
01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 2: But a good job by them. Let's kick it all

1460
01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,080
Speaker 2: the way over to Steve or updates on everything going on.

1461
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 2: It's just an isn't an upset? Steve if at school

1462
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:38,560
Speaker 2: with a multi billion dollar a multi million millions million

1463
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:42,560
Speaker 2: dollar athletic department beats one that has a much smaller

1464
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:47,080
Speaker 2: athletic department budget, even if the seed is three to eleven,

1465
01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:48,120
Speaker 2: is that an upset?

1466
01:07:48,320 --> 01:07:52,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, there's needs to be some context here. Kentucky basketball

1467
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:56,200
Speaker 10: is probably always going to have a budget, so exciting

1468
01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:56,600
Speaker 10: for them.

1469
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,960
Speaker 2: But I'm looking at Sean Miller do his postgame interview

1470
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:02,160
Speaker 2: the little KD on the side of his on the

1471
01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:03,320
Speaker 2: side of his zip up.

1472
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,760
Speaker 1: I don't think he had to pay retail for that. Now.

1473
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,760
Speaker 10: They weren't as good as Iowa State this year. I

1474
01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 10: guess technically that will be an upset if they beat

1475
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:16,519
Speaker 10: Iowa State tomorrow. So seriously, it's like Texas football all

1476
01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:19,439
Speaker 10: these years with that budget, or Notre Dame football for

1477
01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:23,280
Speaker 10: that matter, with their budget. Iowa State forward Joshua Jefferson

1478
01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,160
Speaker 10: is likely out Sunday against Kentucky with the sprained ankle.

1479
01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:30,000
Speaker 10: As very early in the first round, three seed in

1480
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:33,360
Speaker 10: its region, Illinois is leading forty three point thirty against

1481
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:37,200
Speaker 10: VCU early in the second half. Illinois is shooting near

1482
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:40,639
Speaker 10: fifty percent from the floor, but Virginia Commonwealth at thirty

1483
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,600
Speaker 10: two percent. Nebraska is underway and leading twenty one seventeen

1484
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,400
Speaker 10: against Vanderbilt about eight minutes left in the first half,

1485
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,559
Speaker 10: and the late game still about ten minutes away from tip.

1486
01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 10: Arkansas against twelve seed High Point. The other games are final,

1487
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:57,720
Speaker 10: including another Texas win. The Longhorns went three to oh

1488
01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:00,800
Speaker 10: this week, including the play and they beat three seed

1489
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:04,839
Speaker 10: in the West Gonzaga tonight seventy four sixty eight in Portland.

1490
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:08,600
Speaker 10: Two seed in the South, Houston advances to play in

1491
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 10: Houston at the NBA Arena for the Sweet sixteen next week.

1492
01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 10: It'll be Cougar's against this Illinois VCU winner. Well right

1493
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:21,080
Speaker 10: now in Oklahoma City. Today, I should say Houston wiped

1494
01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 10: the floor with Texas A and M eighty eight to

1495
01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:26,439
Speaker 10: fifty seven the final, in part with a Houston eighteen

1496
01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:29,200
Speaker 10: ozhero run in the first half. To the East Region

1497
01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:32,360
Speaker 10: one seed Duke pulled away for an eighty one fifty

1498
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,599
Speaker 10: eight win over TCU. That game was tied forty four

1499
01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:39,000
Speaker 10: all with fourteen minutes left, and then TCU scored fourteen

1500
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 10: points in the last fourteen minutes. Three seed Michigan State

1501
01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:46,040
Speaker 10: advance seventy seven sixty nine over Louisville sixteen assists for

Speaker 10: the Spartans Jeremy Fears and one seed in the Midwest.

1503
01:09:49,120 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 10: Michigan was a winner to start the day ninety five

1504
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 10: seventy two over Saint Louis. Michigan plays a Sweet sixteen

1505
01:09:55,640 --> 01:10:00,519

Speaker 2: me to be a foul or.

1543
01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:59,160
Speaker 3: They were viewing to see what are they reviewing?

1545
01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:03,080
Speaker 2: to see either way.

1546
01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,240

1558
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:43,720
Speaker 5: I was looking at the hand and it looked ball

1559
01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:45,519
Speaker 5: his hand, and it looked like it was his hand.

1560
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:49,400
Speaker 2: Lebron walks off the court, turning to the referee and says,

1561
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:52,639
Speaker 2: that's really effed up, man, that's really effed up.

1562
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,240
Speaker 3: So they didn't call a phone, so they also didn't

1563
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:55,599
Speaker 3: see it.

1564
01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:59,439
Speaker 2: I would imagine the reason why they're taking the ball

1565
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:01,640
Speaker 2: back out of just because it was a foul and

1566
01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:03,200
Speaker 2: they didn't call it shooting foul.

1567
01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:05,080
Speaker 3: But that was that not a shooting foul. It was

1568
01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:06,880
Speaker 3: in the air. If it was a foul, then it

1569
01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:07,400
Speaker 3: was a foul.

1570
01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:09,920
Speaker 2: Well, now it's gonna be a Lakers game winner, as

1571
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:14,599
Speaker 2: Luke Canard just hit a three point shot. Yeah, there

1572
01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:18,240
Speaker 2: you go, so foul on the floor. Lukenard makes a

1573
01:13:18,280 --> 01:13:21,160
Speaker 2: big time shot for the Lakers. One of his big

1574
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:24,280
Speaker 2: moments is being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. That's

1575
01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 2: what they traded him for. This is a team that

1576
01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:30,760
Speaker 2: needed some outside shooting. Lukenard closing the game out for

1577
01:13:30,840 --> 01:13:34,919
Speaker 2: this Lakers team that has been on a scorching hot streak.

1578
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:38,120
Speaker 2: This game was important also for another reason in the

1579
01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:42,720
Speaker 2: legacy and history of just the NBA in general. And

1580
01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:44,880
Speaker 2: I'm not talking about Luke Canard hitting a game winner.

1581
01:13:45,080 --> 01:13:47,160
Speaker 2: Game winners get hit every day, but this is not

1582
01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:49,920
Speaker 2: something you see every day. We'll talk about it in

1583
01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:53,320
Speaker 2: just a moment coming up next, Martin Weisse, Monster, Fox

1584
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 2: Sports Radio.

1585
01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:58,639
Speaker 1: They Smart taking it out.

1586
01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,599
Speaker 2: They won't get an opportunity like the three wins are

1587
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 2: two ties, Marcus Smart plucking.

1588
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 1: Canard to win the game.

1589
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 8: Yes, lout can Luke Canard.

1590
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:18,080
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Lakers Show.

1591
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:22,879
Speaker 2: Luke Canard, Spectrum Sports Net. They're on the call. Welcome

1592
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:24,880
Speaker 2: to the show, Luke Canard. He's been here for a

1593
01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,840
Speaker 2: while a few play it not quite his first game

1594
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:33,040
Speaker 2: for the Lakers, but definitely his biggest Laker moment thus far.

1595
01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:35,920
Speaker 1: As they hit a three, he hits a three to.

1596
01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:39,280
Speaker 2: Edge the Magic by one one oh four, keeping an

1597
01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:41,120
Speaker 2: eye on March Madness all around US.

1598
01:14:41,479 --> 01:14:43,519
Speaker 1: High Point takes the stage today.

1599
01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:46,639
Speaker 2: We'll see what they can do after their shocking first

1600
01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:50,360
Speaker 2: round upset VCU. Right now playing, they're in the midst

1601
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,720
Speaker 2: of getting wopped by Illinois with eleven tec minutes left

1602
01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,400
Speaker 2: in the second half. They did h they gave up

1603
01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:59,759
Speaker 2: a nineteen to two run. They've since scored four buckets

1604
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:03,800
Speaker 2: to at the margin to fifteen, so that's lovely. And

1605
01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:07,680
Speaker 2: Nebraska also playing Vanderbilt right now, two minutes forty five

1606
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:10,760
Speaker 2: seconds left and the first half.

1607
01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 1: Steed de Saga will have all of that with you.

1608
01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:13,160
Speaker 1: I'll tell you real quick.

1609
01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 2: Nebraska, I've only seen them play a handful of times,

1610
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,639
Speaker 2: probably less than I've seen other Big Ten teams play.

1611
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:22,120
Speaker 2: They put up points. Yeah now, but I do want

1612
01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:23,840
Speaker 2: to stay at the NBA. We'll get back to March

1613
01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:26,920
Speaker 2: Madness at the top of next hour after Steve's update.

1614
01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,200
Speaker 1: But I do want to talk because it's fitting.

1615
01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:32,800
Speaker 2: The Lakers won this game, because with this game right,

1616
01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:38,679
Speaker 2: Lebron passes Robert Parrish for most games played in NBA history,

1617
01:15:38,720 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 2: and of all the of all the awards that Lebron

1618
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,719
Speaker 2: has gotten and all the accolades that Lebron has gotten.

1619
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:51,679
Speaker 2: This is one that I think I will really when

1620
01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:54,479
Speaker 2: somebody asked me twenty five years from.

1621
01:15:54,360 --> 01:15:56,639
Speaker 1: Now, what do you remember about Lebron?

1622
01:15:57,840 --> 01:16:00,160
Speaker 2: The thing I think is going to be is I'm

1623
01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:05,080
Speaker 2: gonna really truly remember he was almost always there right

1624
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:09,200
Speaker 2: like how many It wasn't until the very end of

1625
01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:12,400
Speaker 2: the Lakers tenure where it was like the idea of

1626
01:16:12,479 --> 01:16:15,040
Speaker 2: Lebron losing in the first round of the playoffs was

1627
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:18,080
Speaker 2: like a thing that was kind of relatively rotly accepted, right.

1628
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:21,559
Speaker 2: But for the entirety of the time that he was

1629
01:16:21,600 --> 01:16:24,000
Speaker 2: in Miami and the last few years he was in Cleveland,

1630
01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:27,520
Speaker 2: it was the Eastern Conference with it was Lebron James Invitational.

1631
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:29,760
Speaker 1: He was going to the NBA Finals.

1632
01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:31,920
Speaker 2: He was like win them. He was gonna lose him,

1633
01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,400
Speaker 2: but he was going to that bad boy And you

1634
01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:36,519
Speaker 2: think of just the long jevity. I know, the scoring

1635
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:39,240
Speaker 2: title or the scoring all time points and all of that,

1636
01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:42,160
Speaker 2: But I don't think of Lebron as like a scorer

1637
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:44,479
Speaker 2: in the way I think, like, don't get me wrong,

1638
01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:47,519
Speaker 2: obviously great at scoring the ball, but I think of Katie.

1639
01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:49,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I want to think a scorer right when

1640
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:52,120
Speaker 2: I think of somebody, but I think of a long jevity.

1641
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:55,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna think of Lebron somebody who had forty one

1642
01:16:55,200 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 2: years old were arguing why can't he be or can

1643
01:16:59,920 --> 01:17:03,160
Speaker 2: he be the third best player in a championship contender

1644
01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:08,280
Speaker 2: when everybody else in his stratosphere is retired talking about

1645
01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:09,000
Speaker 2: the game on TV.

1646
01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:10,200
Speaker 3: I'm wondering.

1647
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:14,840
Speaker 5: I feel like this year, I know they implemented the

1648
01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 5: sixty five minimum games need to be played for the awards,

1649
01:17:18,960 --> 01:17:20,559
Speaker 5: and I don't know if Lebron is there right, He's

1650
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 5: not going to make that. He's not going to make it,

1651
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:26,000
Speaker 5: but he his availability has always been a thing.

1652
01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:28,080
Speaker 3: Like you, I'm with you on that.

1653
01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 5: Martin like to give him credit because he typically is

1654
01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 5: winning an award, He's typically out there playing. He may

1655
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:36,720
Speaker 5: take some days off, but you do him. You do

1656
01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:40,120
Speaker 5: see him play, even at forty one years old.

1657
01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:42,720
Speaker 2: So but to me, well even the days off, to me,

1658
01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:47,400
Speaker 2: I think that more that came like thirty five seven

1659
01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:49,600
Speaker 2: years old, you know what I'm saying. And then I

1660
01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:52,120
Speaker 2: think when you're looking at the payoff when he's still

1661
01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:53,000
Speaker 2: out there, you know.

1662
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:57,000
Speaker 3: What I mean, Like this was in the last five years, Well, absolutely.

1663
01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,760
Speaker 5: Right before that, it wasn't a thing even though he's

1664
01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:01,000
Speaker 5: not a scorer the way you say, I don't know

1665
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:02,719
Speaker 5: if I'm gonna, you know.

1666
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:04,439
Speaker 3: Ten twenty years or no, when I talk about it that, I'm.

1667
01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:06,639
Speaker 5: Gonna say the fact that he played the most games

1668
01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 5: is what's gonna stand out to me. It's still gonna

1669
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,200
Speaker 5: be that he scored the most points because he's not

1670
01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 5: a scorer, kind of like the same thing with bam Atabio, Like,

1671
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:15,920
Speaker 5: because Lebron is not a score I think it's pretty

1672
01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:17,960
Speaker 5: cool that he was able to do that. Obviously, he's

1673
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,080
Speaker 5: been there so long that it's like, yeah, bad damn time.

1674
01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:23,040
Speaker 5: But like you said, he's not no necessarily scoring the

1675
01:18:23,040 --> 01:18:25,479
Speaker 5: way like Luca scores. Lebron was kind of like a

1676
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:28,519
Speaker 5: pretty well rounded player. He likes to throw, he likes

1677
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:29,880
Speaker 5: to rebound, he likes to dish the ball.

1678
01:18:30,040 --> 01:18:33,680
Speaker 3: He'll score. So the scoring is pretty probably.

1679
01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:35,519
Speaker 5: Still gonna be the thing that I look back and

1680
01:18:35,560 --> 01:18:37,840
Speaker 5: I'm like, that's still pretty awesome that he was able

1681
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:39,639
Speaker 5: to do that. I don't know if anyone is gonna

1682
01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 5: break that scoring title now, Yeah.

1683
01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:43,320
Speaker 4: I mean it's gonna be hard.

1684
01:18:43,720 --> 01:18:45,479
Speaker 1: I mean, nearly impossible.

1685
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:51,040
Speaker 2: Sliding into fifth right later today, Well more than likely, obviously.

1686
01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:54,760
Speaker 1: I'm depending on his play. Well, guys, asked Michael Jordanson.

1687
01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:57,040
Speaker 9: Is do you guys feel like in any way because

1688
01:18:57,040 --> 01:19:00,880
Speaker 9: this could be just totally stupid, but is this a

1689
01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:03,559
Speaker 9: record that Lebron should really want to have?

1690
01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:05,400
Speaker 3: I think he wants all the records.

1691
01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:08,280
Speaker 9: I think you're right, and I think he does. But

1692
01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 9: should he just in the fact that, Okay, he's the

1693
01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:13,720
Speaker 9: all time leading scorer and he has all these accolades,

1694
01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,400
Speaker 9: the all time you know, winning it whatever, all this stuff.

1695
01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:19,000
Speaker 9: But it also there's the fact that he played more

1696
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:21,840
Speaker 9: games than anyone else, Right, does that fact take away

1697
01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:22,519
Speaker 9: from any of these?

1698
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:25,960
Speaker 2: I think to me, and this is gonna be damning.

1699
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:29,400
Speaker 2: With fam praise on accident, those other ones feel like

1700
01:19:29,479 --> 01:19:32,120
Speaker 2: more count like more accumulation stats. Like if you look

1701
01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:35,479
Speaker 2: at these all time leading rushers, Frank Gore is up there,

1702
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:37,200
Speaker 2: it's like, how many of those rushes did he get

1703
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 2: at thirty six years old as a third down back?

1704
01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:41,920
Speaker 1: And you know how impactful was he at the moment?

1705
01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 2: And I think so when I look at like, it's

1706
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,599
Speaker 2: the longevity of the impact.

1707
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:49,080
Speaker 1: Do you know what I'm saying? That's what it is

1708
01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:49,320
Speaker 1: for me.

1709
01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:51,719
Speaker 2: That's why I think the most games played is still

1710
01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:53,840
Speaker 2: one that like the one that will stick out the

1711
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,559
Speaker 2: most to me because yeah.

1712
01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:56,920
Speaker 1: Of course he's got the score. Of course he got

1713
01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,080
Speaker 1: the because he played the most. He was always there.

1714
01:19:59,240 --> 01:20:01,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, he makes it point because I always think about

1715
01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:04,160
Speaker 5: Vince Carter's last game was like right before everything was shut.

1716
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:04,839
Speaker 4: Down for the podemic.

1717
01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 5: It was right like last game and he wasn't even

1718
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:09,800
Speaker 5: playing and they put him in there and he took

1719
01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:12,720
Speaker 5: a shot and he made it. And so not just

1720
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:16,240
Speaker 5: is Lebron's longevity incredible, but that he's still playing at

1721
01:20:16,240 --> 01:20:18,080
Speaker 5: a high level, Like, yeah, you should be.

1722
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:19,760
Speaker 3: You should be the third option on the Lakers. You

1723
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:22,200
Speaker 3: really should be. But if if you're the second one,

1724
01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:23,479
Speaker 3: that's a pretty you could still be.

1725
01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:26,320
Speaker 2: The second one, like and nobody's saying you need to

1726
01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,200
Speaker 2: be this, you need to be the seventh option.

1727
01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:30,240
Speaker 3: No, you know what I mean, And only because Luca's

1728
01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:30,680
Speaker 3: next to you.

1729
01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:33,200
Speaker 2: But that's what they said that when Vince Carter was

1730
01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:35,840
Speaker 2: just all and I'm not all due respect, the respect.

1731
01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:37,720
Speaker 1: You're sitting on the bench coming down his house.

1732
01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:41,800
Speaker 2: You're on the bench, like you're not logging thirty minutes

1733
01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:44,400
Speaker 2: a game. You're not having triple doubles on the second

1734
01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:46,200
Speaker 2: out of a back to back, like you.

1735
01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:48,320
Speaker 4: Know what I mean, Like for all the winning and

1736
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:49,360
Speaker 4: the losing and all of.

1737
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:51,040
Speaker 1: It, Like at a certain point in time, you got

1738
01:20:51,040 --> 01:20:51,679
Speaker 1: to sit back.

1739
01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:54,160
Speaker 5: And be like daily most yes, you know what I mean,

1740
01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:56,400
Speaker 5: like absolutely.

1741
01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:58,880
Speaker 2: Like it's just a remark when today a relatively bad

1742
01:20:58,960 --> 01:20:59,719
Speaker 2: game for Lebron.

1743
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,559
Speaker 1: What he's forty one? Can you have bad games at

1744
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:03,080
Speaker 1: forty one?

1745
01:21:03,160 --> 01:21:03,360
Speaker 3: Yes?

1746
01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:04,880
Speaker 1: I feel like he's rewriting the rules.

1747
01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 3: Absolutely. It just had a triple double with Luca scoring sixteen.

1748
01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:12,559
Speaker 2: Everybody you carry noybody else's stuff compared to his age, Right,

1749
01:21:12,680 --> 01:21:13,360
Speaker 2: get out of here.

1750
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:17,280
Speaker 8: You don't listening to Fox Sports Radio radio.

1751
01:21:17,760 --> 01:21:18,160
Speaker 1: That's right.

1752
01:21:18,200 --> 01:21:21,759
Speaker 2: You heard the man broadcasting live from the Fox Sports

1753
01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:22,600
Speaker 2: Radio studios.

1754
01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:23,160
Speaker 9: That's right.

1755
01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:25,680
Speaker 2: Uh so.

1756
01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:30,720
Speaker 5: About how all these teams I shouldn't be here?

1757
01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:33,439
Speaker 3: Why are you bullying up sets?

1758
01:21:33,479 --> 01:21:33,679
Speaker 1: All?

1759
01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:35,000
Speaker 3: I just not gonna do.

1760
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:41,200
Speaker 1: Any VCU right now. That plucky eleven seed.

1761
01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:46,760
Speaker 2: Knocked off North Carolina, who was missing their best player, right,

1762
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:47,920
Speaker 2: Caleb Wilson was.

1763
01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 4: Out broken hand with a broken hand, and.

1764
01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:53,000
Speaker 2: It took over time to beat them. And I know

1765
01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:55,680
Speaker 2: Hubert Davis did not exactly cover himself in glory in

1766
01:21:55,720 --> 01:22:00,400
Speaker 2: the post name. However, some of it. Sometimes, guys, we

1767
01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:04,160
Speaker 2: do have to give a there's no good way to say,

1768
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:07,040
Speaker 2: we just got our asses kicked, and I don't want

1769
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:09,439
Speaker 2: like you know what I mean, there's really far there's

1770
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:11,960
Speaker 2: really only a hand I's just say nothing.

1771
01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:12,760
Speaker 1: Just no good way.

1772
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:16,560
Speaker 2: There's only a handful of ways. Especially, you know what

1773
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:19,200
Speaker 2: it's like when you're a school at North Carolina and

1774
01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:21,880
Speaker 2: you're a coach like Hubert Davis, You're like from there,

1775
01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:27,000
Speaker 2: You're born in there. You ever, you know, step out

1776
01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:30,200
Speaker 2: on a relationship or something like that, and you know

1777
01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:34,759
Speaker 2: when you walk back in to your partner, there's nothing

1778
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,679
Speaker 2: that you can say that's gonna stop the yelling.

1779
01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:39,000
Speaker 1: At that moment in time.

1780
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:41,760
Speaker 2: You just gotta sit there and eat it. If you

1781
01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 2: want to stay, you got to sit there and eat it, right,

1782
01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:48,280
Speaker 2: you know, saying you know you're not all talking just

1783
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:49,120
Speaker 2: can make it worse.

1784
01:22:49,160 --> 01:22:52,040
Speaker 1: However, the problem is he's being asked questions.

1785
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:55,400
Speaker 2: That has a problem, and so you have a rabid

1786
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:57,920
Speaker 2: media who just can't wait to tell him how he's

1787
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:01,240
Speaker 2: the worst coach of all time, right, And you know what,

1788
01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,840
Speaker 2: because And I am not knocking the media by any

1789
01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:07,960
Speaker 2: stretch when I'm talking about this North Carolina situations with

1790
01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:11,439
Speaker 2: Hubert Davis, because the media, especially beat reporters of a

1791
01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:14,720
Speaker 2: team like that to in my opinion, and I think

1792
01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:17,720
Speaker 2: was true. They're supposed to follow the pulse of the fans, right,

1793
01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:20,760
Speaker 2: so you're not to tell there was no North Carolina.

1794
01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:22,800
Speaker 1: Fan watched that game, goes VI with you and said,

1795
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:25,000
Speaker 1: you know what, hey, way to go. Rams. Don't you

1796
01:23:25,040 --> 01:23:27,880
Speaker 1: just feel happy for the Commonwealth kids. Don't you just

1797
01:23:27,920 --> 01:23:28,519
Speaker 1: feel happy?

1798
01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:28,720
Speaker 9: You know?

1799
01:23:29,160 --> 01:23:32,759
Speaker 4: Don't you just look at that, Look at Philip Martelly.

1800
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:34,160
Speaker 4: Don't you just feel good about that?

1801
01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:38,280
Speaker 2: No, they all wanted Hubert Davis, you know, job, they

1802
01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:41,040
Speaker 2: all wanted him to literally right then and there, walk

1803
01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:42,840
Speaker 2: to mid court in the middle of the first game

1804
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:43,559
Speaker 2: and said I quit.

1805
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 1: You know, you know the next day it's I actually quit.

1806
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:48,200
Speaker 2: I'll never come back, and it would have got a

1807
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:52,240
Speaker 2: standing ovation, right, So there's nothing good to say in

1808
01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:52,719
Speaker 2: that moment.

1809
01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:53,920
Speaker 1: That's just the thing.

1810
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:56,240
Speaker 5: No, you can't prep for it, right, Like, there's nothing

1811
01:23:56,280 --> 01:24:00,280
Speaker 5: you can prepare for that moment, especially because of the school,

1812
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:03,679
Speaker 5: the reputation, the history, all of it.

1813
01:24:03,760 --> 01:24:05,920
Speaker 3: Like you can't. You can't prepare. You can't.

1814
01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:08,360
Speaker 5: It's like when it's not like going to the Oscars

1815
01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:12,640
Speaker 5: and having your gracious loser face after your name is

1816
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:13,280
Speaker 5: not called.

1817
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:15,400
Speaker 3: That's not the same, like I do. Only you can

1818
01:24:15,439 --> 01:24:16,799
Speaker 3: prep for this, right.

1819
01:24:16,880 --> 01:24:20,360
Speaker 2: So kill shallow May for the ballet comments, but for

1820
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:22,800
Speaker 2: looking upset after you know what I'm saying.

1821
01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:24,519
Speaker 1: I get it. I would have been upset losing Michael B.

1822
01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:25,479
Speaker 1: Jordan as well, right.

1823
01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:27,920
Speaker 3: Exactly, you know, like the clap and like the I

1824
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:28,320
Speaker 3: get it.

1825
01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:30,960
Speaker 9: I understand the quick.

1826
01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:32,840
Speaker 1: Said Martin Supreme was terrible. It was a terrible.

1827
01:24:32,960 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 3: I didn't watch it. I only watched Centers. I'm not

1828
01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:37,879
Speaker 3: gonna lie all the movies though nominated.

1829
01:24:37,960 --> 01:24:40,320
Speaker 1: I only thought, I say exactly what Martin Supreme watch?

1830
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:45,200
Speaker 2: It was uncut gems replaced Gambling with Ping Pong, that's it,

1831
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,360
Speaker 2: that's the story with a random instand, and replaced Kevin

1832
01:24:48,400 --> 01:24:49,920
Speaker 2: Garnett with Tyler the Creator.

1833
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:52,320
Speaker 1: There you go, that's it when that's the story.

1834
01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,320
Speaker 5: When I first heard somebody was like, I'm gonna watch

1835
01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:57,320
Speaker 5: Marty Supreme, and I was like, what's that about McDonald's, Like.

1836
01:24:57,320 --> 01:25:01,200
Speaker 3: I legit, had no idea what it was about.

1837
01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:03,120
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you this, I just feel sorry for

1838
01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:06,200
Speaker 2: every little kid named Martin out there because I had

1839
01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:08,599
Speaker 2: to fight for Marty McFly and my most of my

1840
01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:13,200
Speaker 2: childhood life, and you'll be fighting Martin supreme. Who's the

1841
01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 2: most dominant team that you have seen thus far in

1842
01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:18,000
Speaker 2: March Madness? And this is Illinois even though they're up

1843
01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,320
Speaker 2: by twenty right now, really shouldn't count because if they

1844
01:25:20,320 --> 01:25:22,280
Speaker 2: were playing North Carolina they'd be a little closer. I

1845
01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:26,280
Speaker 2: imagine maybe vc'll do it again Cinderella, or maybe the

1846
01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:27,840
Speaker 2: clock has struck twelve thirty.

1847
01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:30,920
Speaker 1: But the most dominant team, Monci, that you've seen with

1848
01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:31,800
Speaker 1: you r two eyes.

1849
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:35,280
Speaker 5: I think there's like a couple of teams that I

1850
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:38,800
Speaker 5: really have enjoyed watching, but I don't like I think

1851
01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:41,920
Speaker 5: I have Saint John's going to the Final four.

1852
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:44,880
Speaker 2: I will say the first ten minutes of that game, yes,

1853
01:25:45,120 --> 01:25:46,599
Speaker 2: was really a moment where it's like.

1854
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 1: Wait, are they gonna nor are they they score at all?

1855
01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:51,360
Speaker 1: I think they scored at all at all?

1856
01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:53,920
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, so but I don't But I like,

1857
01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:54,920
Speaker 3: like watching the.

1858
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:56,439
Speaker 4: Nets right exactly.

1859
01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:57,479
Speaker 1: Northan Island was trying.

1860
01:25:57,720 --> 01:25:57,920
Speaker 8: Yes.

1861
01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,200
Speaker 3: I also I think Michigan's he looks really good. I

1862
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,320
Speaker 3: think they look pretty complete. They look really strong.

1863
01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:06,160
Speaker 5: I don't like the way Duke has looked, and I

1864
01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:09,160
Speaker 5: think that's a lot of people's opinion as well.

1865
01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:12,679
Speaker 3: Am I crazy to think that UCLA looks good?

1866
01:26:13,680 --> 01:26:17,519
Speaker 2: I think Ucla Donovan Dent, he made his name in

1867
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,080
Speaker 2: the tournament a few years ago playing for Astua rather

1868
01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:24,320
Speaker 2: playing for North North New Mexico State, went off. He's

1869
01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:26,599
Speaker 2: got a great game. He doesn't turn the ball over.

1870
01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 2: It's like a freaking yo yo when this guy is

1871
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:31,360
Speaker 2: driving the lane. He didn't shoot the ball well yesterday

1872
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:34,240
Speaker 2: for UCLA. But when you have a guy like that

1873
01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:36,760
Speaker 2: who can be the engine of the offense and the

1874
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:39,360
Speaker 2: engine up the car, who does not turn the ball over,

1875
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:42,000
Speaker 2: there's only so many possessions in these games.

1876
01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:45,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure, for sure, And like obviously I I

1877
01:26:45,479 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 5: have Arizona winning the whole thing. So Arizona to me

1878
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:49,320
Speaker 5: has also looked great. But I was expecting them to

1879
01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:51,200
Speaker 5: look great. It's those other teams like Saint John's look

1880
01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:53,479
Speaker 5: better than I thought. Ucla looked better than I thought.

1881
01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:58,000
Speaker 5: Michigan State looked better than I thought. Your team, your

1882
01:26:58,040 --> 01:27:00,080
Speaker 5: Michigan team today looks so good. I fell asleep in

1883
01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:00,599
Speaker 5: the second half.

1884
01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I was one of those waitings, but it's that

1885
01:27:03,200 --> 01:27:08,080
Speaker 2: I just because the question, Well, this team was better

1886
01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 2: than I thought.

1887
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:13,720
Speaker 3: The ones that are expected to be good are good

1888
01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:14,639
Speaker 3: except for Duke.

1889
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,000
Speaker 5: Duke looks like the most questioned questionable team out of

1890
01:27:18,040 --> 01:27:20,920
Speaker 5: the one seeds. Right today, I literally fell asleep watching

1891
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:22,880
Speaker 5: the second half of your Michigan team.

1892
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:25,439
Speaker 3: Yes, because because that's how that's the type of game

1893
01:27:25,520 --> 01:27:25,800
Speaker 3: it was.

1894
01:27:26,160 --> 01:27:27,320
Speaker 1: You know, dominance is boring.

1895
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:29,679
Speaker 5: I fell him on the couch and it was great,

1896
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:31,000
Speaker 5: and I had it on and the like I would

1897
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:32,759
Speaker 5: kind of like wake up to like maybe a dunk

1898
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:35,719
Speaker 5: maybe maybe Yaxel Dunk or something.

1899
01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:36,360
Speaker 3: Is that his name?

1900
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:38,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, there we go.

1901
01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:39,960
Speaker 3: And then I was just like, oh no, but what's

1902
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:41,680
Speaker 3: the score. Oh it's over. And I was just like, no,

1903
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:44,080
Speaker 3: doze off because there was only one game. Had there

1904
01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:45,680
Speaker 3: been other games, I would have.

1905
01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:48,920
Speaker 2: Probably I have a name like that where if I'm

1906
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:52,560
Speaker 2: at a you know, like your standard waiting room with

1907
01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:56,080
Speaker 2: like a racially diverse group of people, and they call

1908
01:27:56,360 --> 01:27:59,240
Speaker 2: Martin Weiss, they are rarely looking at me until I

1909
01:27:59,360 --> 01:28:02,040
Speaker 2: stand up right, there's a there's a few other people

1910
01:28:02,120 --> 01:28:02,519
Speaker 2: in the room.

1911
01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 1: That look like you would expect Martin Wiss to look

1912
01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:06,360
Speaker 1: before you get to me.

1913
01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:08,080
Speaker 3: I don't know what a Martinis would look like.

1914
01:28:08,640 --> 01:28:13,160
Speaker 1: Uh, similar to like a Steven Spielberg.

1915
01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:14,559
Speaker 3: Okay, like.

1916
01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 1: They're old, you know what I'm saying.

1917
01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:23,680
Speaker 2: That old And yeah they're five seven, white hair glasses,

1918
01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:26,679
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. That's genuinely where you find

1919
01:28:26,720 --> 01:28:31,040
Speaker 2: the Marty Weisses of the world. Yoxall Londenborg also had

1920
01:28:31,120 --> 01:28:34,479
Speaker 2: to He's gotta we've got to be brothers right there,

1921
01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,920
Speaker 2: because when he sees when his name is called and

1922
01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:40,519
Speaker 2: they don't know who he is, they can't be like, yeah.

1923
01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:43,960
Speaker 1: That's Yoxell Lindenborg right there. What a name?

1924
01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:44,519
Speaker 2: What a name?

1925
01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:46,719
Speaker 4: Yacks so high.

1926
01:28:46,600 --> 01:28:51,240
Speaker 1: Point right now playing Arkansas? I think this and I don't.

1927
01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:54,599
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask Garritoris this in the in the commercial break,

1928
01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:57,000
Speaker 2: because he, to me is just you know, the the

1929
01:28:57,280 --> 01:29:01,559
Speaker 2: guy the right the Uh. When this is all said

1930
01:29:01,640 --> 01:29:05,160
Speaker 2: and done, and this tournament is all said and done,

1931
01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 2: and all these guys who are going to the pros

1932
01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:09,439
Speaker 2: are in the pros and all of them are going

1933
01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:13,759
Speaker 2: pro and something else or doing something else. If Darius

1934
01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:16,599
Speaker 2: Acuff Junior is not going to be the best NBA

1935
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:21,000
Speaker 2: player in this draft. Like I would not take him first.

1936
01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:23,639
Speaker 2: I would take Aj Debonncer first.

1937
01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 4: However, however, and I would feel good.

1938
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:28,920
Speaker 2: Don't get me wrong, I would feel great about taking

1939
01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:31,320
Speaker 2: Aj Debonster first when I look at like, he's like

1940
01:29:31,439 --> 01:29:33,920
Speaker 2: a And I don't mean to be hyperbolic when I

1941
01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:36,559
Speaker 2: say this, but he reminds me in college of watching

1942
01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:38,479
Speaker 2: like a mix of Kevin Garnett and Paul I'm Kevin

1943
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:41,920
Speaker 2: Durant rather and Paul George. He's like he got handled,

1944
01:29:41,920 --> 01:29:44,120
Speaker 2: he could shoot, he's got smooth game. It's all of

1945
01:29:44,200 --> 01:29:46,400
Speaker 2: this and it's like, we'll see how it all plays

1946
01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:48,880
Speaker 2: out in the league. Right, But obviously you put those

1947
01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:51,240
Speaker 2: two guys in a blender, You're like, I would love

1948
01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:55,479
Speaker 2: that version of basketball player. But I would go to

1949
01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:59,000
Speaker 2: sleep that night thinking did I just pass up on

1950
01:29:59,080 --> 01:29:59,799
Speaker 2: Alan Iverson?

1951
01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:00,880
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean?

1952
01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:02,640
Speaker 5: Did I?

1953
01:30:03,240 --> 01:30:03,280
Speaker 1: Like?

1954
01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:05,759
Speaker 2: I know, I know he's short, I know the defense

1955
01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:07,960
Speaker 2: isn't there, But it's like, dude, I might have passed

1956
01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:10,320
Speaker 2: up with a guy who could single handedly carry me

1957
01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 2: to an NBA champion of NBA Finals, right that single

1958
01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:18,519
Speaker 2: handedly carry a franchise in terms of undersized, but just

1959
01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:19,960
Speaker 2: pure bucket.

1960
01:30:20,120 --> 01:30:23,920
Speaker 5: Yes, absolutely, And I think that's why Arkansas in my

1961
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:26,639
Speaker 5: bracket doesn't go very far because he's a one man show.

1962
01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:28,519
Speaker 3: But boy is it a good one man show.

1963
01:30:30,120 --> 01:30:31,760
Speaker 1: I think I don't know, he might be.

1964
01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:34,120
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just I like the fact that he's from

1965
01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:38,439
Speaker 2: Detroit and plays with an edge that feels like like

1966
01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:40,280
Speaker 2: a lot of these kids and I'm not trying to

1967
01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:43,880
Speaker 2: push away or throw anybody out, but they transferred to

1968
01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:46,360
Speaker 2: a million different schools and they like they're they're not

1969
01:30:46,520 --> 01:30:48,240
Speaker 2: from anywhere, you know what I'm saying.

1970
01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:50,200
Speaker 1: It's like there's a computed.

1971
01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:51,760
Speaker 2: With the cast Tech, like that's a real school that

1972
01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:54,240
Speaker 2: has like a real history and ended up going to

1973
01:30:54,320 --> 01:30:56,040
Speaker 2: IMG for his last year or two.

1974
01:30:56,720 --> 01:31:00,240
Speaker 9: So there's ESPN's latest NBA mock draft has a cuff

1975
01:31:00,280 --> 01:31:03,920
Speaker 9: going seventh Dallas Maverick, which I think it more says

1976
01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:06,200
Speaker 9: something about the strength of the draft class, which everyone's

1977
01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:08,600
Speaker 9: saying is gonna be Yeah, history, That's what I'm But

1978
01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:10,960
Speaker 9: it feels like in most years, the type of player

1979
01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:12,680
Speaker 9: you're talking about is worthy of the number one pick.

1980
01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:14,320
Speaker 3: When was it? I feel like two years ago we

1981
01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:16,280
Speaker 3: were like, who's going Number one overall.

1982
01:31:16,400 --> 01:31:21,800
Speaker 2: Yes, somebody please Jack, But I'd say, like to this

1983
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:25,840
Speaker 2: to your point, this draft is stacked and there's no you.

1984
01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:28,720
Speaker 2: If you if you take him with the number one

1985
01:31:28,800 --> 01:31:32,560
Speaker 2: overall pick in you miss, you're immediately fired. Right Like

1986
01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:34,720
Speaker 2: if it doesn't work, you immediately fired. I would not

1987
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:39,280
Speaker 2: I would not NLT taking number one, but but I

1988
01:31:39,439 --> 01:31:42,599
Speaker 2: would be worried if I just passed like Luca didn't

1989
01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:44,040
Speaker 2: go number one in his draft. Right, you know what

1990
01:31:44,080 --> 01:31:47,360
Speaker 2: I'm saying, because there's certain things that like, guys with

1991
01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:50,519
Speaker 2: tools are always gonna be like tools and age, and

1992
01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:54,599
Speaker 2: you're always you're gonna bet on that parlay of traits

1993
01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:57,680
Speaker 2: more than you'd bet on the undersized guard who does

1994
01:31:57,720 --> 01:31:59,000
Speaker 2: the slidest feet on defense.

1995
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:02,560
Speaker 1: Right However, I just can't I can't shake it.

1996
01:32:02,920 --> 01:32:05,800
Speaker 2: And you know, right now Arkansas having a little trouble

1997
01:32:05,840 --> 01:32:08,719
Speaker 2: shaking high point thirty to twenty nine with five minutes

1998
01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:09,479
Speaker 2: left in the first half.

1999
01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:15,040
Speaker 3: After this first round, how do you think what Darren

2000
01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:16,640
Speaker 3: Peterson is that the Kansas guy?

2001
01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:18,439
Speaker 1: Darren Peterson is the Kansasky is he?

2002
01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:21,040
Speaker 5: Do you think his stock dropped because there was already

2003
01:32:21,120 --> 01:32:22,920
Speaker 5: questions about him, but people thought he was going to

2004
01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:24,240
Speaker 5: go pretty.

2005
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:25,400
Speaker 3: High on the draft, and then he didn't, you know,

2006
01:32:25,439 --> 01:32:27,360
Speaker 3: would take himself out of games. By the end of it,

2007
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:29,760
Speaker 3: he was in it. He seemed to play the end

2008
01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:32,000
Speaker 3: of the season more than he did at the beginning.

2009
01:32:32,200 --> 01:32:33,120
Speaker 3: But then they go and lose.

2010
01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:35,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wonder how his stock.

2011
01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:35,960
Speaker 3: Looks right now.

2012
01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:38,760
Speaker 1: Had a slow start against cal Baptist.

2013
01:32:38,960 --> 01:32:42,120
Speaker 2: Yep, there was a game that usually sitting back and like,

2014
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:47,280
Speaker 2: hey buddy, and honestly, this is my when I'm sitting

2015
01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:50,040
Speaker 2: there with my full brea, my all favorites bracket, I'm.

2016
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,160
Speaker 1: Like, are you kidding me? Another one another?

2017
01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:57,000
Speaker 2: But I'll say, wherever his stock is, I think it

2018
01:32:57,040 --> 01:32:59,880
Speaker 2: can only go up from from where he is right

2019
01:32:59,920 --> 01:33:03,519
Speaker 2: now when you consider all the smoke that surrounded him.

2020
01:33:03,600 --> 01:33:06,720
Speaker 2: So like you had that list, where was Peterson on

2021
01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:09,320
Speaker 2: the list that he's projected? There is he still projected

2022
01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:10,160
Speaker 2: to be number one?

2023
01:33:10,920 --> 01:33:13,960
Speaker 9: He is, yep, number one of the number one. And

2024
01:33:14,160 --> 01:33:15,800
Speaker 9: this did come out March eleventh though.

2025
01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:18,920
Speaker 2: Okay, but even what there's only been nine days since

2026
01:33:19,120 --> 01:33:21,080
Speaker 2: between the two I think are so many There's only

2027
01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:24,800
Speaker 2: been eleven days whatever, So it's not been so much

2028
01:33:24,880 --> 01:33:27,439
Speaker 2: all the stuff that Monsi was talking about has is

2029
01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:30,759
Speaker 2: still in the calculus of that projection.

2030
01:33:31,479 --> 01:33:34,120
Speaker 1: Now, I didn't think he played particularly well, but.

2031
01:33:35,680 --> 01:33:37,720
Speaker 2: Every single projection has had him as a number one

2032
01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:40,320
Speaker 2: overall pick, no matter what seems to be happening.

2033
01:33:40,320 --> 01:33:40,719
Speaker 3: I agree.

2034
01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:43,680
Speaker 9: So I know that's interesting though, with how good the

2035
01:33:43,760 --> 01:33:45,439
Speaker 9: rest of the classes. It's like, all right, if there's

2036
01:33:45,520 --> 01:33:47,400
Speaker 9: any concerns about a guy who's seen at the top,

2037
01:33:47,439 --> 01:33:49,040
Speaker 9: why wouldn't you just take one of the other guys

2038
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:52,080
Speaker 9: who's in this historic class who don't have the concerns.

2039
01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:56,280
Speaker 2: That would be my take, That would be my opinion,

2040
01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:00,160
Speaker 2: you know, that would be the way I would go

2041
01:34:00,240 --> 01:34:00,560
Speaker 2: about it.

2042
01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:04,120
Speaker 4: But you know who, there has to be an answer

2043
01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:04,320
Speaker 4: to it.

2044
01:34:04,400 --> 01:34:06,280
Speaker 2: I'm not saying, you know what, maybe we'll find the

2045
01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:10,040
Speaker 2: answer out fifteen games into next season when Darren Peter,

2046
01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:11,360
Speaker 2: when we find out that Darred.

2047
01:34:11,200 --> 01:34:13,679
Speaker 1: Peterson a crippling candy addiction or something and that's.

2048
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:17,360
Speaker 2: Why, you know, or something stupid like that, right, but

2049
01:34:17,439 --> 01:34:19,000
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like something that was like, oh,

2050
01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:21,439
Speaker 2: this is such a college issue, and now that he

2051
01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:23,880
Speaker 2: is a pro, like that, even this will never be

2052
01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:25,120
Speaker 2: a thing ever again.

2053
01:34:25,600 --> 01:34:27,680
Speaker 1: And all you have to do is just tell me

2054
01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:29,680
Speaker 1: that this was you know, all you do is let

2055
01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:32,840
Speaker 1: everybody know. All right, Montie, what do you say?

2056
01:34:34,240 --> 01:34:37,679
Speaker 2: Illinois up seventy three to fifty one o A vcu

2057
01:34:37,760 --> 01:34:38,559
Speaker 2: A two minutes left.

2058
01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:40,479
Speaker 1: It's the Madden's going to continue.

2059
01:34:41,320 --> 01:34:44,439
Speaker 3: The Madden is for Illinois. They just scored another three.

2060
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:49,439
Speaker 2: You're saying, man, Herbert Davis is sitting back, like, are

2061
01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:54,439
Speaker 2: you freaking kidding me? Nineteen point right, Like that's really

2062
01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:57,080
Speaker 2: where it's got to be eating him up a lot.

2063
01:34:57,200 --> 01:34:59,800
Speaker 2: Like giving up a nineteen point deficit in the games

2064
01:35:00,120 --> 01:35:02,439
Speaker 2: forty minutes long is really tough.

2065
01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:05,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is not a happy camper.

2066
01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:06,320
Speaker 1: He is not.

2067
01:35:06,720 --> 01:35:08,360
Speaker 5: He's I don't actually, you know what, I don't think

2068
01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:11,080
Speaker 5: he's watching. I would have be watching. I would have

2069
01:35:11,160 --> 01:35:13,479
Speaker 5: gone into the forest.

2070
01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:17,240
Speaker 3: Where did Aaron Rodgers? The Doctor's retreat, That's where I

2071
01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:17,800
Speaker 3: would have gone.

2072
01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:23,920
Speaker 2: High Point has seventeen three point attempts and they're that

2073
01:35:24,160 --> 01:35:27,400
Speaker 2: what the under twelve time out? So I'm thinking I'm

2074
01:35:27,400 --> 01:35:31,080
Speaker 2: seeing the strategy here. We know that we're David up

2075
01:35:31,120 --> 01:35:31,959
Speaker 2: against Goliath.

2076
01:35:32,240 --> 01:35:35,559
Speaker 1: We're going to shoot a million threes and pray for Varians.

2077
01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:38,360
Speaker 2: It's a very NBA way of looking at things, and

2078
01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:41,240
Speaker 2: that's why the Washington Wizards ended up almost beating the

2079
01:35:41,280 --> 01:35:42,280
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City Thunder.

2080
01:35:42,360 --> 01:35:43,840
Speaker 3: There was a there's a few teams who tried to

2081
01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:47,160
Speaker 3: do that already that we've seen. I mean Miami of Ohio.

2082
01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:50,559
Speaker 3: That's what they try to do, but it just didn't work,

2083
01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:51,640
Speaker 3: even sort of a little bit.

2084
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:55,400
Speaker 2: Since everybody loves watching a team go thirty six percent

2085
01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:57,840
Speaker 2: on fifty minutes attempted threes.

2086
01:35:57,720 --> 01:35:59,640
Speaker 1: That is what I call high quality.

2087
01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:03,719
Speaker 2: Coming up next, we'll get into like the failed trade

2088
01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:07,640
Speaker 2: heard around the world, Max Crosby in the podcast and

2089
01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:09,360
Speaker 2: all of this in the Ravens situation.

2090
01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:12,160
Speaker 1: I have a new spin on it. I know Monci

2091
01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:13,040
Speaker 1: has a spin on it.

2092
01:36:13,920 --> 01:36:20,479
Speaker 2: This this to say it doesn't look good, that's obvious,

2093
01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:23,080
Speaker 2: but I think it also is a sign of things

2094
01:36:23,120 --> 01:36:25,040
Speaker 2: to come. For which side, I'll tell you Martin Weis

2095
01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:29,240
Speaker 2: Montster belying on was Fox Sports Radio comes to your

2096
01:36:29,280 --> 01:36:34,479
Speaker 2: life from the Fox Sports Radio Studios. Uh spoiler alert,

2097
01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:44,120
Speaker 2: VCU clock struck midnight. They did not advance, they did

2098
01:36:44,200 --> 01:36:47,040
Speaker 2: not make it close, but they have it's Illinois.

2099
01:36:47,120 --> 01:36:47,760
Speaker 3: They had a win.

2100
01:36:48,160 --> 01:36:52,559
Speaker 5: They were able to have a fun night, a joyous

2101
01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:54,200
Speaker 5: night that they're never gonna forget.

2102
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:58,080
Speaker 2: You know who else forgot it everybody who wasn't rooting

2103
01:36:58,120 --> 01:37:03,559
Speaker 2: against North Carolina. And you know there's so few people

2104
01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:05,479
Speaker 2: that are, you know, alumni of VCU.

2105
01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:07,360
Speaker 1: I suppose, so.

2106
01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:10,120
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. It's about them. They're gonna remember it.

2107
01:37:10,200 --> 01:37:11,840
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter that we're not gonna remember it. They're

2108
01:37:11,840 --> 01:37:12,519
Speaker 3: gonna remember it.

2109
01:37:13,080 --> 01:37:14,920
Speaker 5: And then ten twenty years from now they're gonna have

2110
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:16,599
Speaker 5: that as a memory and they're gonna share it with somebody.

2111
01:37:16,600 --> 01:37:18,720
Speaker 5: It doesn't matter that we're gonna forget it because it

2112
01:37:18,880 --> 01:37:20,519
Speaker 5: was insignificant in our lives.

2113
01:37:20,760 --> 01:37:22,280
Speaker 3: It is significant in their lives.

2114
01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:26,680
Speaker 2: Everybody just needs to be honest. The reason why you

2115
01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:31,280
Speaker 2: are all locked in watching that nineteen point come back

2116
01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:35,000
Speaker 2: and collapse because you all wanted to point and laugh

2117
01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:39,080
Speaker 2: at North Carolina. It's okay, I used to be like

2118
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:40,640
Speaker 2: you guys, I understand it.

2119
01:37:41,760 --> 01:37:44,320
Speaker 3: Oh so now you're better than us? Yes, that's not true.

2120
01:37:45,240 --> 01:37:50,560
Speaker 1: Well in this regard, yes, yes, I don't need to

2121
01:37:50,760 --> 01:37:52,280
Speaker 1: laugh at the other man's failures.

2122
01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:54,560
Speaker 3: It's not about laughing at the other man's failures. You

2123
01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:56,800
Speaker 3: want to point it like that, but that's not it.

2124
01:37:57,479 --> 01:37:58,040
Speaker 3: That's not it.

2125
01:37:58,280 --> 01:38:01,040
Speaker 4: I don't need to blow out another man's case for mine.

2126
01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:05,000
Speaker 1: The shine bright. I don't need it.

2127
01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:07,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, you also don't want people to have moments. I'm

2128
01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:08,559
Speaker 3: all for the moment.

2129
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:09,000
Speaker 4: No, you're not.

2130
01:38:09,040 --> 01:38:10,800
Speaker 3: You don't want them, the whole moment. You don't want

2131
01:38:10,800 --> 01:38:11,599
Speaker 3: any any moment.

2132
01:38:11,720 --> 01:38:12,639
Speaker 1: I'm all for moments.

2133
01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:14,080
Speaker 11: Uh is it?

2134
01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:15,920
Speaker 4: The one shiny moment at the end of the thing,

2135
01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:17,120
Speaker 4: will beautiful, to be lovely.

2136
01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:21,160
Speaker 1: I can't wait for it. It'll be fantastic. That's what

2137
01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:21,519
Speaker 1: it's called.

2138
01:38:21,520 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 2: One shiny moment, one moment right now. For the record,

2139
01:38:27,320 --> 01:38:30,160
Speaker 2: maybe this shows my age a bigger fan of the

2140
01:38:30,320 --> 01:38:33,760
Speaker 2: Luther version. Then I believe that Jennifer Hudson version and

2141
01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:37,800
Speaker 2: now exists. I don't know why we needed to update that.

2142
01:38:38,280 --> 01:38:39,400
Speaker 3: I didn't know she had a version.

2143
01:38:39,479 --> 01:38:43,240
Speaker 2: Some things are classics. That was one, but I understand

2144
01:38:43,880 --> 01:38:46,880
Speaker 2: sometimes you have to update with the times. But one

2145
01:38:46,920 --> 01:38:49,120
Speaker 2: thing I have updated with as well is the idea

2146
01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:54,880
Speaker 2: that listen, these He's upsets, we we only really.

2147
01:38:54,800 --> 01:38:55,280
Speaker 1: Like them.

2148
01:38:56,760 --> 01:39:01,880
Speaker 2: Unless two things. There's a star thirt five studs on

2149
01:39:02,000 --> 01:39:04,439
Speaker 2: one of the teams. And I'm not talking about Doug

Speaker 9: I bet?

2158
01:39:24,640 --> 01:39:26,839
Speaker 3: I think today he played against Michigan that had the glasses.

2159
01:39:27,040 --> 01:39:29,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Robbie, there we go. Yeah.

2160
01:39:29,479 --> 01:39:31,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, first time I learned about him.

2161
01:39:31,960 --> 01:39:33,680
Speaker 1: He had the most three pointers made in the n

2162
01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:36,599
Speaker 1: CUA A two hundred and eleven three for ten today.

2163
01:39:36,920 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 9: Good for him.

2164
01:39:37,680 --> 01:39:40,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. See moment, I mean his moment came when Saint

2165
01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:41,720
Speaker 1: Louis won the.

2166
01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:44,280
Speaker 5: Conference champions right right, That was not today. But I'm

2167
01:39:44,320 --> 01:39:47,519
Speaker 5: saying these other upsetes that have happened, it's moments for them.

2168
01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:49,800
Speaker 1: It's memories about eight nine matchups. So I mean like

2169
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:54,200
Speaker 1: upset and seating to me, eight nine matchup, all nine

2170
01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:55,000
Speaker 1: sees advanced.

2171
01:39:55,600 --> 01:39:57,439
Speaker 2: Now, maybe you might ship back and be like Mark,

2172
01:39:57,479 --> 01:39:59,839

Speaker 6: nine advanced. That means you's got the eight seeds exactly.

2178
01:40:13,040 --> 01:40:15,120
Speaker 6: They should have been the eight seeds, not the nine seeds.

2179
01:40:15,360 --> 01:40:17,479
Speaker 6: Ip show fact though. Boom, there you go.

2180
01:40:17,840 --> 01:40:19,840
Speaker 1: You're not telling me that the thirteens he should have

2181
01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:21,599
Speaker 1: been a four seed. But you know what I'm saying.

2182
01:40:22,040 --> 01:40:23,920
Speaker 1: You know you telling me he confused.

2189
01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:45,760
Speaker 2: he was the year they lost to That's why I

2190
01:40:45,800 --> 01:40:47,439
Speaker 2: remember all these teams they beat Kentucky.

2191
01:40:47,600 --> 01:40:48,120
Speaker 3: Was this recent?

2192
01:40:49,880 --> 01:40:50,880
Speaker 4: No, then it's two years ago.

2193
01:40:50,960 --> 01:40:53,000
Speaker 3: Oh yes, then I know exactly what you're talking about.

2194
01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:53,839
Speaker 1: The mustache.

01:40:53,920 --> 01:40:56,880
Speaker 3: Yes, and then he got like nil for like some

2196
01:40:57,120 --> 01:40:58,000
Speaker 3: sort of fast food.

2197
01:40:58,720 --> 01:41:00,360
Speaker 1: Yes, uh that quick minute.

2198
01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:03,920
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, so see, I do know remember a mere Khan,

2199
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:08,479
Speaker 2: the manager from McNee state, and that's Cinderella one.

2200
01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:10,120
Speaker 1: They couldn't even find a player. They have to talk

2201
01:41:10,160 --> 01:41:10,799
Speaker 1: about the manager.

2202
01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:14,760
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like, if unless you're giving me Steph,

2203
01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:17,120
Speaker 2: the birth of Steph, the legend of Steph Curry.

2204
01:41:17,200 --> 01:41:19,840
Speaker 1: Right, if you're giving me that, I'm in.

2205
01:41:20,560 --> 01:41:24,080
Speaker 3: If you're giving like, but ger, there's not gonna be

2206
01:41:24,080 --> 01:41:25,479
Speaker 3: a lot of births of Steph Curry.

2207
01:41:25,640 --> 01:41:28,360
Speaker 1: Which is why I'm again, like I said, I've grown

2208
01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:29,799
Speaker 1: out of this stage where I'm.

2209
01:41:29,640 --> 01:41:31,560
Speaker 5: Thinking that you're growing out of the stage where this

2210
01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:33,080
Speaker 5: is the best weekend of your year.

2211
01:41:33,200 --> 01:41:33,240
Speaker 8: No.

2212
01:41:33,320 --> 01:41:35,920
Speaker 2: No, no, it still is. It absolutely still is. There's

2213
01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:40,600
Speaker 2: no doubt about that. But I just had to understand that.

2214
01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:43,080
Speaker 2: The reason why I'm sitting.

2215
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:46,080
Speaker 1: There looking at like TCU Ohio State, I'm.

2216
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:49,840
Speaker 2: Unabashedly rooting for TCU to start the tournament, why it's

2217
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:52,360
Speaker 2: the one I see Ohio State win. So I can

2218
01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:55,000
Speaker 2: find all types of enjoyment in this. But like the

2219
01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:56,680
Speaker 2: same way, I don't want to see Ohio State win.

2220
01:41:56,960 --> 01:42:00,519
Speaker 2: I want to watch good games in the tournament, and

2221
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:02,880
Speaker 2: that wasn't one.

2222
01:42:02,920 --> 01:42:04,920
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, there's others ones you can watch that are good.

2223
01:42:05,040 --> 01:42:07,840
Speaker 3: That's the beauty of this tournament. There's a lot of games.

2224
01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:09,800
Speaker 1: Starts to fin up around this time, and once you

Speaker 2: start it at the projected top of things. I watched

2324
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:19,320
Speaker 2: Kansas play probably ten times this year. I watched them

2325
01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:22,320
Speaker 2: play yesterday. Was thoroughly unimpressed with the way that the

2326
01:47:22,439 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 2: Jayhawks took on cal Baptist Lancers. I think, explain to

2327
01:47:27,080 --> 01:47:30,120
Speaker 2: me why, Darren Peterson seemingly, no matter what he does,

2328
01:47:30,400 --> 01:47:31,519
Speaker 2: is the number one pick.

2329
01:47:31,400 --> 01:47:31,880
Speaker 1: In the draft.

2330
01:47:33,040 --> 01:47:35,479
Speaker 11: Well, Martin, I'll push back a little bit that no

2331
01:47:35,600 --> 01:47:37,800
Speaker 11: matter what, he's number one pick. At least from some

2332
01:47:37,920 --> 01:47:39,840
Speaker 11: of the people I talked in the league, they thought

2333
01:47:39,880 --> 01:47:43,240
Speaker 11: it was really a toss up between him and Ajadbansa

2334
01:47:43,320 --> 01:47:45,640
Speaker 11: and Cameron Bowser. Now they do think if they had

2335
01:47:45,680 --> 01:47:49,400
Speaker 11: to narrow it down, it would be between AJ and Darren.

2336
01:47:49,520 --> 01:47:52,360
Speaker 11: But I think that that's really gonna be neck and

2337
01:47:52,520 --> 01:47:55,679
Speaker 11: neck because I think right now, both AJ and Darren

2338
01:47:55,720 --> 01:47:59,880
Speaker 11: are considered better upside players. Cameron Brewiser is considered the

2339
01:48:00,120 --> 01:48:03,200
Speaker 11: best player now to win now. But a lot of

2340
01:48:03,560 --> 01:48:06,680
Speaker 11: teams draft on upside because they know they're going to

2341
01:48:06,720 --> 01:48:08,720
Speaker 11: have them for a while. But I think here's the

2342
01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:12,559
Speaker 11: interesting thing. When when it comes to Darren, I asked

2343
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:16,480
Speaker 11: folks say, does this all his injuries and the inconsistency

2344
01:48:16,600 --> 01:48:19,200
Speaker 11: is that going to factor in? Is that a concern?

2345
01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:22,040
Speaker 11: And they said, well, it's a concern that everyone's going

2346
01:48:22,080 --> 01:48:24,120
Speaker 11: to want to, you know, do their due diligence and

2347
01:48:24,240 --> 01:48:27,320
Speaker 11: get the real story on what's the issue behind his

2348
01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:29,640
Speaker 11: durability concerns. But they don't think it's going to be

2349
01:48:29,720 --> 01:48:33,599
Speaker 11: enough to actually dissuade them from drafting. So I think

2350
01:48:33,760 --> 01:48:36,519
Speaker 11: the interview process is going to be a real tell

2351
01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:39,400
Speaker 11: because when you're looking at you know, all the factors

2352
01:48:39,439 --> 01:48:41,760
Speaker 11: that go into play with drafting a guy. It first

2353
01:48:41,800 --> 01:48:44,400
Speaker 11: starts with body of work, but then it's the interview

2354
01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:47,840
Speaker 11: intel process where they get a real good feel of

2355
01:48:47,960 --> 01:48:51,439
Speaker 11: what that players about and you know who who's in

2356
01:48:51,560 --> 01:48:54,400
Speaker 11: their camp and what a story is Mark.

2357
01:48:54,439 --> 01:48:55,840
Speaker 3: Thanks for joining us today.

2358
01:48:55,960 --> 01:49:00,599
Speaker 5: We were also talking about Arkansas star Darius a Cuff.

2359
01:49:01,320 --> 01:49:04,080
Speaker 3: Where do you think he lands. Our team's looking at him.

2360
01:49:04,080 --> 01:49:07,080
Speaker 5: Obviously he may not be the tallest, but as Martin said,

2361
01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:09,719
Speaker 5: I would hate to miss out on the next Alan Iverson.

2362
01:49:10,720 --> 01:49:14,200
Speaker 11: Yeah, there's a lot of rave reviews about him. I mean,

2363
01:49:14,240 --> 01:49:17,479
Speaker 11: he's not projected to, you know, be in that top three,

2364
01:49:17,600 --> 01:49:21,360
Speaker 11: but he's projected to be in that lottery mix. And

2365
01:49:21,640 --> 01:49:24,800
Speaker 11: you know, one one person, one scout that I talked to,

2366
01:49:25,040 --> 01:49:28,160
Speaker 11: mentioned about the fact that because he's playing in the

2367
01:49:28,320 --> 01:49:31,840
Speaker 11: SCC like that's making him even more prepared for the

2368
01:49:32,000 --> 01:49:35,920
Speaker 11: NBA season. So they really like his all round game.

2369
01:49:36,040 --> 01:49:38,400
Speaker 11: They love how he is as a point guard and

2370
01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:43,120
Speaker 11: a general here and they also think that he's ready

2371
01:49:43,160 --> 01:49:46,320
Speaker 11: to score in the NBA as a multi faceted scorer.

2372
01:49:46,600 --> 01:49:49,080
Speaker 11: So he's going to be top ten. I don't know

2373
01:49:49,200 --> 01:49:54,040
Speaker 11: if top five. I don't think top three, but he's

2374
01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:55,360
Speaker 11: gained a lot of rave reviews.

2375
01:49:55,760 --> 01:49:58,639
Speaker 2: You said that, Mark Medina joining us here on Fox

2376
01:49:58,640 --> 01:50:02,280
Speaker 2: Sports Radio, you said that and the SEC of him

2377
01:50:02,280 --> 01:50:04,920
Speaker 2: playing in the SEC was more attractive to Uh. Did

2378
01:50:05,080 --> 01:50:08,040
Speaker 2: some gms expound upon that, like what is it about

2379
01:50:08,080 --> 01:50:10,280
Speaker 2: the SEC, and is that in the SEC compared to

2380
01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:13,400
Speaker 2: the Big ten or SEC compared to other Power four

2381
01:50:13,520 --> 01:50:17,040
Speaker 2: leagues or just that that caught my ear?

2382
01:50:17,600 --> 01:50:21,200
Speaker 11: Yeah, Well, I think the sentiment is the SEC is

2383
01:50:21,240 --> 01:50:25,680
Speaker 11: a really competitive conference, and you know, just competition can

2384
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,120
Speaker 11: really either bring out the best in a really good

2385
01:50:28,160 --> 01:50:31,719
Speaker 11: player or show his weaknesses. So I think that's really

2386
01:50:31,800 --> 01:50:34,080
Speaker 11: the main thing that you know, the SEC is a

2387
01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:34,680
Speaker 11: factor here.

2388
01:50:36,120 --> 01:50:39,040
Speaker 5: All right, Mark, let's redirect to the NBA now, because

2389
01:50:39,080 --> 01:50:42,920
Speaker 5: I feel like the MVP conversation is becoming bigger and

2390
01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:44,120
Speaker 5: bigger as we're getting close.

2391
01:50:43,920 --> 01:50:44,679
Speaker 3: To the end of the season.

2392
01:50:44,920 --> 01:50:47,640
Speaker 5: Luga Doncic kind of the Lakers winning nine in a row.

2393
01:50:47,720 --> 01:50:50,439
Speaker 5: He just had sixty points today, dropping thirty three. Is

2394
01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:52,320
Speaker 5: he jumping to the top of the MVP list.

2395
01:50:53,320 --> 01:50:57,000
Speaker 11: He's jumping because Kay Cunningham is out now with the injury,

2396
01:50:57,040 --> 01:50:59,559
Speaker 11: and also Lucas playing really well. But I don't think

2397
01:50:59,640 --> 01:51:03,960
Speaker 11: he is supplanting Shay Goilders, Alexander or Victor Wenbinyama or

2398
01:51:04,040 --> 01:51:07,200
Speaker 11: Jalen Brown. I think that he could eclipse Nikole Jokic

2399
01:51:07,400 --> 01:51:10,400
Speaker 11: because there's been some inconsistency with that team. You know,

2400
01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:13,640
Speaker 11: most of it has little do with Jokic, but then

2401
01:51:13,720 --> 01:51:15,760
Speaker 11: again with the Lakers struggles earlier in the year that

2402
01:51:15,840 --> 01:51:18,799
Speaker 11: had little do with Luca and just injuries and poor defense.

2403
01:51:19,200 --> 01:51:21,400
Speaker 11: So yeah, he's in the mix. I think he could

2404
01:51:21,439 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 11: be top three, but it's really hard for me to think. Okay,

2405
01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:27,439
Speaker 11: he's playing so well that it makes me want to

2406
01:51:27,520 --> 01:51:31,439
Speaker 11: reconsider a vote for Shay Gilders Alexander, vote for Victor

2407
01:51:31,520 --> 01:51:33,920
Speaker 11: Wee Binyama. Those are the two top teams in the West.

2408
01:51:34,320 --> 01:51:37,519
Speaker 11: I think Shay he's been even more consistent and the

2409
01:51:37,640 --> 01:51:41,360
Speaker 11: thunder they've had overlapping injuries, most notably to Jaylen Williams,

2410
01:51:41,400 --> 01:51:45,080
Speaker 11: and Shay's play hasn't dropped there with Victor one Binyama,

2411
01:51:45,200 --> 01:51:49,200
Speaker 11: I mean, unless he misses games and he's ineligible because

2412
01:51:49,200 --> 01:51:51,840
Speaker 11: of the sixty five game rule. He's been mostly unstoppable

2413
01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:56,000
Speaker 11: and he's a complete two way player. Lucas playing better

2414
01:51:56,080 --> 01:51:57,880
Speaker 11: on defense, but he's not going to make an all

2415
01:51:58,080 --> 01:52:01,000
Speaker 11: defensive team. So yeah, I mean to be clear here,

2416
01:52:01,200 --> 01:52:04,719
Speaker 11: Lucas played out of his mind. All the positives about

2417
01:52:04,760 --> 01:52:10,800
Speaker 11: his scoring, his aggressiveness, his offensive flow outweighs any negatives

2418
01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:13,439
Speaker 11: of technicals. You know, he got a sixteenth today. He's

2419
01:52:13,479 --> 01:52:16,719
Speaker 11: going to be out Monday's game in Detroit if that holds.

2420
01:52:17,600 --> 01:52:20,160
Speaker 11: But we're just talking about really two special players in

2421
01:52:20,240 --> 01:52:22,960
Speaker 11: Shay and Wemby that I think it goes either one

2422
01:52:22,960 --> 01:52:23,519
Speaker 11: of those guys.

2423
01:52:24,760 --> 01:52:25,439
Speaker 3: With the Lakers.

2424
01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:27,840
Speaker 5: Mark I said to Martin that I feel like the

2425
01:52:27,920 --> 01:52:32,439
Speaker 5: Lakers having success and Lebron playing well is not a

2426
01:52:32,560 --> 01:52:33,400
Speaker 5: good thing for them.

2427
01:52:33,520 --> 01:52:35,439
Speaker 3: I thought, they don't want to play with Lebron. So

2428
01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:38,200
Speaker 3: what if they start playing well, they do well in

2429
01:52:38,280 --> 01:52:41,080
Speaker 3: the playoffs but don't win, Aren't they kind of stuck?

2430
01:52:43,560 --> 01:52:46,000
Speaker 11: Not necessarily, I mean, I think the thing here is

2431
01:52:46,120 --> 01:52:49,920
Speaker 11: they have options. So if Lebron is really playing well,

2432
01:52:50,760 --> 01:52:53,400
Speaker 11: there might be some comfort level from both sides from

2433
01:52:53,560 --> 01:52:57,000
Speaker 11: a reunion, but at a relative discount. And if he

2434
01:52:57,080 --> 01:52:59,840
Speaker 11: doesn't play well, well, the kind of the ship sailed,

2435
01:53:00,000 --> 01:53:03,080
Speaker 11: it's very clear he's a free agent and time to

2436
01:53:03,240 --> 01:53:05,639
Speaker 11: move on around Lucas. So yeah, I mean the Lakers

2437
01:53:05,680 --> 01:53:07,639
Speaker 11: aren't going to be like, oh man, like we don't

2438
01:53:07,640 --> 01:53:09,640
Speaker 11: want to do well in the playoffs or have a

2439
01:53:09,720 --> 01:53:11,880
Speaker 11: puncher chance to win a title because this means we

2440
01:53:11,960 --> 01:53:13,920
Speaker 11: have to keep Lebron. They don't have to do that,

2441
01:53:14,080 --> 01:53:17,160
Speaker 11: and I think in fairness of Lebron, he might decide

2442
01:53:17,280 --> 01:53:20,760
Speaker 11: this is the end too. So I think here is

2443
01:53:20,880 --> 01:53:25,639
Speaker 11: the interesting dynamic with Lebron, Luca Austin just the Lakers

2444
01:53:25,760 --> 01:53:29,080
Speaker 11: is I never doubted to fit X as a no standpoint,

2445
01:53:29,439 --> 01:53:31,920
Speaker 11: and I think even before this stretch their chemistry was

2446
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:34,880
Speaker 11: reasonably fine. It was just everything else that's looked a

2447
01:53:34,920 --> 01:53:38,320
Speaker 11: lot better DeAndre and he hasn't played like this until

2448
01:53:38,360 --> 01:53:41,719
Speaker 11: this season, where he's being a dominant big and embracing

2449
01:53:41,800 --> 01:53:45,719
Speaker 11: his role and their defense suddenly exists. Before, with exception

2450
01:53:45,800 --> 01:53:49,440
Speaker 11: of Marcus Smart, the Lakers never defended because of inconsistent

2451
01:53:49,479 --> 01:53:53,880
Speaker 11: effort and more importantly, terrible talent. But now they're been

2452
01:53:54,000 --> 01:53:57,599
Speaker 11: playing well defensively and as a result, they've been able

2453
01:53:57,680 --> 01:53:59,840
Speaker 11: to win a lot more games that they probably want.

2454
01:53:59,880 --> 01:54:02,160
Speaker 11: To I've had business too earlier in the season.

2455
01:54:02,479 --> 01:54:04,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think one of the main things you look

2456
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:07,679
Speaker 2: at these Lakers hot streak recently, the heater that they've

2457
01:54:07,760 --> 01:54:11,679
Speaker 2: been on, it feels like Lebron has taken a step back.

2458
01:54:11,760 --> 01:54:13,320
Speaker 1: Well, you don't have to look at the numbers.

2459
01:54:13,320 --> 01:54:15,560
Speaker 2: You see Lebron's taking a massive step back in the

2460
01:54:15,760 --> 01:54:17,760
Speaker 2: usage rate of it all and stepped up in a

2461
01:54:17,800 --> 01:54:19,840
Speaker 2: different I mean, getting triple doubles on the second out

2462
01:54:19,840 --> 01:54:21,719
Speaker 2: of a back to back and type of stuff.

2463
01:54:21,720 --> 01:54:23,000
Speaker 1: And then I feel like if you're.

2464
01:54:22,880 --> 01:54:27,280
Speaker 2: DeAndre Ayton and like Lebron is out here diving on

2465
01:54:27,360 --> 01:54:28,960
Speaker 2: the floor, like what are you gonna do?

2466
01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:29,280
Speaker 1: Right?

2467
01:54:29,280 --> 01:54:30,840
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like you're gonna sit there

2468
01:54:30,880 --> 01:54:33,640
Speaker 2: and really does like not be bought into what the

2469
01:54:33,720 --> 01:54:36,560
Speaker 2: message is. When somebody who's been in the league, you know,

2470
01:54:36,800 --> 01:54:38,800
Speaker 2: twenty some odd years, seems to you know, I have

2471
01:54:38,880 --> 01:54:41,560
Speaker 2: to do forty fifty games whatever it is, they seem

2472
01:54:41,640 --> 01:54:43,960
Speaker 2: to have bought into the message fully. But you know

2473
01:54:44,040 --> 01:54:47,040
Speaker 2: one message I always buy into. That's Mark Madinis. Mark,

2474
01:54:47,120 --> 01:54:49,320
Speaker 2: thanks for coming on the show, my friend. Appreciate you.

2475
01:54:50,040 --> 01:54:52,480
Speaker 11: Marion Montsea, You're the best and got the best show

2476
01:54:52,520 --> 01:54:54,400
Speaker 11: on the weekend of Fox Sports. Rare to keep doing it.

2477
01:54:54,560 --> 01:54:57,080
Speaker 1: Oh, you just say that all. He just says that

2478
01:54:57,160 --> 01:54:58,920
Speaker 1: until Bernie Fratto comes on on that.

2479
01:55:00,600 --> 01:55:03,080
Speaker 11: Listen to the playback. I've never said that before.

2480
01:55:04,160 --> 01:55:06,760
Speaker 1: Thanks so much, Mark for coming on the show. Appreciates you.

2481
01:55:07,120 --> 01:55:10,440
Speaker 1: No mon seen this four or five matchup Nebraska Vanderbilt.

2482
01:55:10,600 --> 01:55:13,360
Speaker 1: Look at that listen it is tight? Is tight? That's

2483
01:55:13,440 --> 01:55:16,240
Speaker 1: interesting what Medina just said there about the SEC.

2484
01:55:16,480 --> 01:55:21,600
Speaker 2: SEC obviously one of the better basketball conferences, really physical conference.

2485
01:55:21,640 --> 01:55:22,960
Speaker 2: I think when we look at the SEC and the

2486
01:55:23,000 --> 01:55:27,800
Speaker 2: Big Ten, those are the two real big basketball conferences,

2487
01:55:27,880 --> 01:55:28,840
Speaker 2: especially this season.

2488
01:55:29,400 --> 01:55:32,920
Speaker 1: And that's interesting for him to say about Acuff and

2489
01:55:33,040 --> 01:55:36,280
Speaker 1: his ability to like because if I'm picking a guy,

2490
01:55:37,360 --> 01:55:40,280
Speaker 1: if I'm taking a first overall pick, and this may

2491
01:55:40,360 --> 01:55:42,760
Speaker 1: be be conintuitive, I'll get your I'll want your opinion

2492
01:55:42,800 --> 01:55:45,000
Speaker 1: on this. If I am taking a guy with the

2493
01:55:45,040 --> 01:55:48,760
Speaker 1: first overall pick, I can't miss. So I'm I'm going

2494
01:55:48,880 --> 01:55:50,200
Speaker 1: tools and traits, right.

2495
01:55:51,760 --> 01:55:55,080
Speaker 2: But then as I get further away from that right further,

2496
01:55:55,480 --> 01:55:58,800
Speaker 2: and the selections dwindle more and more and more, I'm

2497
01:55:58,840 --> 01:56:02,280
Speaker 2: looking for something that can What do I see that?

2498
01:56:02,840 --> 01:56:06,400
Speaker 2: What is my rookie gonna be good? At day one

2499
01:56:06,600 --> 01:56:09,840
Speaker 2: in the NBA, right, what is or in either any league?

2500
01:56:09,960 --> 01:56:12,600
Speaker 2: But what can my rookie come in and do day one?

2501
01:56:12,840 --> 01:56:15,840
Speaker 2: What can he what can can he see the floor

2502
01:56:16,280 --> 01:56:19,800
Speaker 2: in the first game because he's good enough to do this?

2503
01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:23,200
Speaker 3: Yes, give me something specific that you saw that you.

2504
01:56:23,280 --> 01:56:27,080
Speaker 2: Can rely on, right, like maybe even with Anthony Davis,

2505
01:56:27,200 --> 01:56:29,880
Speaker 2: obviously he was the number one o oh pick you

2506
01:56:30,080 --> 01:56:32,240
Speaker 2: want to deem the can't miss prospect, but you knew

2507
01:56:33,160 --> 01:56:35,600
Speaker 2: day one he's gonna be able to come in block shots.

2508
01:56:35,680 --> 01:56:38,120
Speaker 5: Right, This is for like picks four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, Right,

2509
01:56:38,200 --> 01:56:40,200
Speaker 5: like the after the first three, it's like.

2510
01:56:40,280 --> 01:56:43,480
Speaker 3: What exactly why am I picking? Why am I picking you? Specifically?

2511
01:56:43,600 --> 01:56:45,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Luke Canard, I believe it was the seventh pick

2512
01:56:45,560 --> 01:56:50,280
Speaker 2: in the draft the s But to the point you

2513
01:56:50,360 --> 01:56:51,760
Speaker 2: knew he walked in the league.

2514
01:56:51,960 --> 01:56:53,960
Speaker 4: He's gonna knock down three point show exactly.

2515
01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:54,800
Speaker 1: No doubt about it.

2516
01:56:54,920 --> 01:56:56,240
Speaker 2: So if you're telling me I can get a guy

2517
01:56:56,320 --> 01:56:58,480
Speaker 2: with the fifth or sixth or seventh pick who can

2518
01:56:58,560 --> 01:57:00,720
Speaker 2: walk in and be a fifteen point again NBA score,

2519
01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:01,560
Speaker 2: you know what I'll say.

01:57:37,160 --> 01:57:38,800
Speaker 2: actually hears the words of songs.

2534
01:57:39,640 --> 01:57:41,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Martin, we're all just saying things.

2535
01:57:42,160 --> 01:57:44,879
Speaker 1: I listen. When I was going through my wedding playlist,

2536
01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:46,720
Speaker 1: I was like, do you know what that song is about?

2537
01:57:46,880 --> 01:57:50,000
Speaker 3: Well, that's like, You're like, no, I'm not listening.

2538
01:57:50,480 --> 01:57:54,280
Speaker 2: I'm not playing this on my wedding on the like

2539
01:57:55,120 --> 01:57:58,600
Speaker 2: maybe the day after the day before. This is a

2540
01:57:58,720 --> 01:57:59,879
Speaker 2: themed event, guys.

2541
01:57:59,760 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 3: Mark, it ain't no fun.

2542
01:58:03,520 --> 01:58:08,000
Speaker 2: Like, this is not the energy I'm putting out here,

2543
01:58:08,160 --> 01:58:11,800
Speaker 2: is Martin Weiss Monty Belano's Fox Sports Radio. And I'm

2544
01:58:11,800 --> 01:58:15,640
Speaker 2: also definitely not trying to get to a payphone to

2545
01:58:15,840 --> 01:58:18,839
Speaker 2: call anyone, because there are no payphones anymore.

2546
01:58:19,960 --> 01:58:22,440
Speaker 3: There's got to be one somewhere and you know what

2547
01:58:22,560 --> 01:58:24,800
Speaker 3: you would do if you saw it, take a picture

2548
01:58:24,840 --> 01:58:25,000
Speaker 3: with it.

2549
01:58:26,240 --> 01:58:27,600
Speaker 1: I have to close this thing. But you know what

2550
01:58:27,680 --> 01:58:29,840
Speaker 1: you honesty would do. You would look at it and

2551
01:58:29,920 --> 01:58:32,080
Speaker 1: be like, wow, that thing looks disgusting. I'm not touching it.

2552
01:58:32,280 --> 01:58:34,160
Speaker 12: It would be they actually didn't make a pay for

2553
01:58:34,280 --> 01:58:38,200
Speaker 12: you guys where it's in, uh, like these college kids and.

2554
01:58:38,720 --> 01:58:41,040
Speaker 3: That makes sense though in a school. Yeah, It's like

2555
01:58:41,120 --> 01:58:41,800
Speaker 3: it's like thing.

2556
01:58:41,920 --> 01:58:44,920
Speaker 12: In Calado or something or Utah, and it's called call

2557
01:58:45,000 --> 01:58:48,040
Speaker 12: a boomer. And then they made one and they put

2558
01:58:48,040 --> 01:58:50,560
Speaker 12: it in a retirement home and it's called a zoomer.

2559
01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:53,560
Speaker 12: So then when you like pick it up, it'll ring

2560
01:58:54,120 --> 01:58:56,720
Speaker 12: and then like a gen z or millennial answer and

2561
01:58:56,800 --> 01:58:58,560
Speaker 12: then an old person they can talk to each other.

2562
01:58:58,720 --> 01:59:01,520
Speaker 1: So that's what Adam was, Adam Levine Rumber five. That's

2563
01:59:01,520 --> 01:59:04,400
Speaker 1: what he's doing. He's calling a nursing home.

2564
01:59:04,920 --> 01:59:07,600
Speaker 3: Like where am I got it? I didn't know that?

2565
01:59:07,640 --> 01:59:08,240
Speaker 3: But that's cute.

2566
01:59:08,520 --> 01:59:08,840
Speaker 1: Why not?

2567
01:59:09,800 --> 01:59:12,320
Speaker 2: I would challenge you to listen to the words and

2568
01:59:12,400 --> 01:59:14,280
Speaker 2: then you maybe be like, oh, maybe that's why he

2569
01:59:14,400 --> 01:59:15,920
Speaker 2: wasn't calling a nursing home.

2570
01:59:18,360 --> 01:59:21,240
Speaker 4: Again, what Mary's talking about?

2571
01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:23,120
Speaker 5: His on exact payphone, But it seems like they're using

2572
01:59:23,160 --> 01:59:25,000
Speaker 5: that in order to connect people together and make it

2573
01:59:25,080 --> 01:59:28,680
Speaker 5: easy for people in a nursing home and young people.

2574
01:59:28,520 --> 01:59:29,800
Speaker 4: To have some sort of interaction.

2575
01:59:30,080 --> 01:59:32,280
Speaker 2: I just think looking for my cell phone doesn't hit

2576
01:59:32,320 --> 01:59:33,879
Speaker 2: the same way as I'm looking for a payphone.

2577
01:59:33,960 --> 01:59:35,160
Speaker 3: I am looking for a payphone.

2578
01:59:35,400 --> 01:59:38,400
Speaker 1: No one is no, Yeah, I'm looking what I'm looking for.

2579
01:59:38,520 --> 01:59:42,680
Speaker 2: I'd rather all thirteen and fourteen seeds when in March madness,

2580
01:59:43,720 --> 01:59:45,680
Speaker 2: then have to pretend like I'm using a payphone.

2581
01:59:45,920 --> 01:59:47,840
Speaker 9: Is he not saying he's trying to get back all

2582
01:59:47,920 --> 01:59:51,240
Speaker 9: of like the money he spent on calls towards her.

2583
01:59:51,280 --> 01:59:52,960
Speaker 9: I think it's like a metaphor where he's trying to

2584
01:59:53,000 --> 01:59:54,560
Speaker 9: get back all of the money that he spent on

2585
01:59:54,640 --> 01:59:55,280
Speaker 9: their relationship.

2586
01:59:55,400 --> 01:59:56,920
Speaker 4: Now he's not listening to the lyrics.

2587
01:59:57,040 --> 01:59:59,120
Speaker 3: Wow, let it go, Ian coming in here.

2588
02:00:00,880 --> 02:00:04,880
Speaker 1: The whole point is, I'm not even going back over

2589
02:00:04,960 --> 02:00:05,280
Speaker 1: the point.

2590
02:00:05,520 --> 02:00:06,320
Speaker 3: Don't go over the point.

2591
02:00:07,920 --> 02:00:09,880
Speaker 2: I don't want to insult the listening audience because they

2592
02:00:09,880 --> 02:00:12,400
Speaker 2: all hit heard it and agree and agree.

2593
02:00:13,440 --> 02:00:15,920
Speaker 1: Jason Smith had Vanderbilt going to his final.

2594
02:00:15,680 --> 02:00:18,760
Speaker 2: Four, okay, and he is the only person that I

2595
02:00:18,880 --> 02:00:21,520
Speaker 2: have heard with Vanderbilt in the final four. But I'll

2596
02:00:21,560 --> 02:00:25,320
Speaker 2: tell you this, I saw Vanderbilt play proximately no basketball

2597
02:00:25,360 --> 02:00:27,400
Speaker 2: this year, so I didn't see this team play at all.

2598
02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:31,320
Speaker 2: And I've seen Nebraska play a few times. This Nebraska

2599
02:00:31,400 --> 02:00:34,280
Speaker 2: team is really good. Yeah, so I'm watching this Vanderbilt

2600
02:00:34,280 --> 02:00:36,800
Speaker 2: team go toe to toe. It's making me wonder if

2601
02:00:36,880 --> 02:00:39,320
Speaker 2: Jason Smith wasn't onto something and if I shouldn't have listened.

2602
02:00:39,840 --> 02:00:40,840
Speaker 3: No, we all should have listened.

2603
02:00:40,840 --> 02:00:42,480
Speaker 5: I feel like Vanderbilt is one of those schools like

2604
02:00:42,560 --> 02:00:45,240
Speaker 5: he I don't watch much Vanderbilt either, but you kind

2605
02:00:45,280 --> 02:00:49,280
Speaker 5: of like expect them to just play hard, play by

2606
02:00:49,360 --> 02:00:52,000
Speaker 5: the book, play fundamental basketball type of thing.

2607
02:00:52,640 --> 02:00:54,680
Speaker 3: And maybe that's why they're up right now by four,

2608
02:00:54,720 --> 02:00:56,240
Speaker 3: which is crazy, which is.

2609
02:00:56,280 --> 02:00:58,680
Speaker 2: Interesting you consider Vanderbilt in the success that they have

2610
02:00:58,800 --> 02:01:02,720
Speaker 2: had in both at CC basketball and SEC football. When

2611
02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:05,680
Speaker 2: we go back to our conversation earlier, though, Vanderbilt spending

2612
02:01:05,720 --> 02:01:08,040
Speaker 2: the same as Alabama, wink wink, they're not.

2613
02:01:10,160 --> 02:01:12,280
Speaker 1: They're not Alabama.

2614
02:01:12,400 --> 02:01:13,800
Speaker 5: I wish I knew the number. I wish I'm gonna

2615
02:01:13,800 --> 02:01:15,400
Speaker 5: go like this up after I know the exact number.

2616
02:01:15,440 --> 02:01:17,240
Speaker 2: It was spending a lot more money than Vanderbilt and

2617
02:01:17,320 --> 02:01:21,640
Speaker 2: everything Auburn. You know what Auburn's doing, not winning pritory

2618
02:01:21,760 --> 02:01:22,640
Speaker 2: jation Martin up next,
