Sons at the Mavericks Game three as well. 6 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: Draymond got fined twenty five K for the double Birds 7 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: in Memphis and Dylan Brooks suspended a game.

Email 13 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 1: I addressed DP at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle 14 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: a DPS show, and the phone number if you'd like 15 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: to dial in Operator Tyler standing by eight seven seven 16 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: three DP show. Maverick's blown out by the Suns on Wednesday, 17 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: and normally when the team struggles, you point towards the 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: star player, but it's hard to point a finger at Luca. 19 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: He's been dominant in the postseason. He's averaging over thirty 20 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: three a game in the playoffs, but his play hasn't 21 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: translated into second round success. The Mavericks looked overwhelmed. Luca 22 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: is scoring, but they're taking advantage of his lack of defense. 23 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: Dallas point guard Jalen Brunson's a nice player, but to 24 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: ask him to get your twenty three to twenty five 25 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 1: a night, it's a tall task. They're focusing on Luca. 26 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: Luca is going to have a lot of turnovers. They're 27 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: going to try to tire him out. At the other 28 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: end playing defense. And if you look at the Dallas Mavericks, 29 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: it's a good team, a good regular season team, but 30 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: not ready to make a run in the postseason. We 31 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: thought Kris stops supports Zingis was going to be that, 32 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: you know, Robin de Batman here and it didn't work out. 33 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: Maybe you go out and get a Rudy Gobert in 34 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: the offseason. But Dallas Phoenix is a better team. You know, 35 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: Luca is the best player on the floor. And I 36 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,639 Speaker 1: like how you know people are now realizing that Luca 37 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: can't play defense. I'm thinking, does anybody watch sports anymore? 38 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: They just read articles. I mean, he does try to 39 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: play defense, but he can't play defense. He's out guarding 40 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 1: Chris paul and the perimeter. I'm going that's horrible, horrible, 41 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: And now we point out that he can't play defense. 42 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: There are a lot of guys in the history of 43 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: the sport who couldn't play defense. It's can you stop them? 44 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: But Luca on the floor that plus minus if you 45 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: want to factor in the analytics, I mean, it's not 46 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: a pretty sight here. Do I expect them to win tonight? 47 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: I do, but this might be it? Yes, Paulie, I 48 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: hesitated to bring this up, but Dan I mentioned the morning, 49 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: meaning there is the Sporting News posted this. When's the 50 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: last time you said I hesitate to bring this up 51 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: and then you don't bring it up. I always bring 52 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: it up. Yeah, that's I'm not the vault. So the 53 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: Sporting News posted on social media yesterday. Luca Done now 54 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: has the most career points per game in NBA playoff history. 55 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: Luca's career average in the postseason is thirty three point 56 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: five points per game. Guess who's now second place? Michael 57 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: Jordan at thirty three point four. Michael Jordan at thirty 58 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: three point four. What is possibly flawed with this comparative stat? Dan, 59 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: Just off the top of your head, what could be 60 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: not input in context that Jordan has played two hundred 61 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 1: postseason games and Luca I think he is on game 62 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: eighteen eighteen. Yes, so I did a little math, even 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: though that's not my fourte In Michael Jordan's first twenty 64 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: games of his career, he averaged thirty six points per 65 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: game in the playoffs, so that would be two and 66 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: a half more than Luca. If Luca average is forty 67 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: in each of the next few games, he would be 68 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: higher than You're so funny. I came in and Paul goes, 69 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: I pulled you aside. I know, I got I got 70 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: a stat and it's bothering me. I said, okay, save 71 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: it for the show, and he goes, no, it's about 72 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan and Luca don Chick. I said save it 73 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: for the show. And then he keeps telling me that 74 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: I said save it for the show, and I liked 75 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: the Sporting News. But you gotta give me some context. Well, 76 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: shouldn't you say more than ten games game? Yeah? Maybe 77 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: at this point in his career, eighteen playoff games in 78 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: Luca Donchek is the second leading score of all time. 79 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: That's still impressive. It is, but I would like to 80 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: have a little bit more sample size. If I'm going 81 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: to compare him to Michael Jordan's playoff career, then I 82 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: have to have some context there. I would say at 83 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: least fifty games before you can move. It's almost like 84 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: qualifying for a batting title. You have to have a 85 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: certain number of a bats played appearances before you can 86 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: win a batting title. I mentioned the merch that we have. 87 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,720 Speaker 1: Our Stats of the Day are brought to you by 88 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show. 89 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: I got one of those Bonker stat of the days here. 90 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: I got a few of them, and I was watching 91 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: baseball yesterday. That's not that's not breaking, man, Marvin, What 92 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: do you you're doing? Why are you pressing the button 93 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: with your small hands? It's wow, that's hurtful, but accurate. Okay, 94 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: it's Friday, uh show Aotani. I had to watch. He's 95 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,919 Speaker 1: that Fenway and I wanted to see how he was 96 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: going to do hitting wise. He had a single off 97 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: the Green Monster, Marv, can you play it? I hope 98 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: this does justice to the sound of this leaving his 99 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: bat and hitting the wall. Nobody out a run in 100 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: here in the age. Otani sends one the other way, 101 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: that one's off. No, that is real play. I first 102 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 1: of all, there's certain guys when the ball leaves the bat. 103 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: You know Jack Peterson when he was with the Dodgers, 104 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: he would hit when he hit a home run, it 105 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: would be like you heard it and you go, that's gone. 106 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: There's certain guys that the ball leaves their bat in 107 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: a different way. And Otani played again, Mark nobody out 108 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: a run in here in the age. Otani sits one 109 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: the other way, that one's off the bot. I loved it. 110 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, it was so great, I thought, And 111 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: then he pitched great. I think he had eleven strikeouts. 112 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 1: Now here is your stat of the day, and it 113 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 1: has to do with Show Heyotani. There are only two 114 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: starting pitchers to record hits at Fenway in the designated 115 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: hitter era, two all time and the designated hitter Era. 116 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: So back in the early seventies, Show Heyotani had a 117 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: couple of base knocks yesterday.

We have a couple. I'm gonna save the 129 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: nil one for later. You mentioned Shohyotani. Over the past 130 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: couple of years, some people have said, many people have 131 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: said in the media and baseball that Shohiotani is great 132 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: of a story as it is, maybe he should go 133 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: with pitching or hitting. Maximize those, maximize those, focus on 134 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: those and become a great great hitter or a great 135 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: great pitcher instead of like, I think it's fair to 136 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: say he's very good at both. Yes, Okay, here's the poll. 137 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: Shohyotani should focus on either being a hitter or pitcher 138 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 1: to maximize one of them for the rest of his career. 139 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: Stay a two way player for his entire career in 140 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: the big leagues. You got to stay a two Way 141 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: player as long as you can, because this is unique. 142 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: This isn't Babe Ruth. Babe Ruth was a great pitcher, 143 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: stop pitching and then became one of the great hitters 144 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: of all time. Babe did pitching and hitting for around 145 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: two years, I think two seasons. But Shoheiutani is sort 146 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: of Bo Jackson. You know, Bo was a good baseball 147 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: player and a good running back. Now, had he picked one, 148 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: he probably would have been a Hall of Famer. If 149 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: he was a baseball player full time, he probably would 150 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: have been a Hall of Famer. But he's sort of 151 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: that unicorn. Dion did it as well, but Bo is 152 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: a better baseball player than Dion. This is something that 153 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: hasn't happened. I don't know if we're going to see 154 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: more of this, but Shoheioutani has global appeal. I mean, 155 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: this is just unique that you're watching, you go out 156 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: of your way to watch him. Joheyutani has that, and 157 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: you know, the ability to pitch and throw hard and 158 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: strike out people. I always like to see how a 159 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: pitcher is striking people out. Is it called strikes or 160 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: is it swinging? And he had eleven strikeouts yesterday at 161 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: Fenway twenty nine times the Red Sox swung and missed. 162 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: That's the most by any pitchers so far this season. 163 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: A lot of times, though, you can have this debate 164 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: with hitters. They'll say, hey, if I'm swinging, I'm on it. 165 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 1: It's when they locate it and you don't swing. That's 166 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: the difference, because you go that guy's got great stuff, 167 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: but I'm swinging and I'm on it, whereas man, he 168 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: is just placing the ball and I can't get to it. 169 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: That to me is more frustrating. If I felt like, Okay, 170 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: I'm on this, I'm missing it, but I'm on this, 171 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: as opposed to he's painting the corners there, that would 172 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: frustrate me more. Yeah, off the poll, coush. I'll I 173 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: hear a lot of guys in MLB Network say, you know, 174 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,839 Speaker 1: if he focused on one, there's a lot of mental 175 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: strain and preparing for hitters and preparing for pitchers. I 176 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: think John Smoltz talked about that, said it is a 177 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: mental strain more than a physical strain. But if he 178 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: picked pitching and was a you know, even a cy 179 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: young winner, or if he picked hitting and won the 180 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: whole you know, triple crown. He wouldn't be special anymore. 181 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: He wouldn't be you know, globally, he said, globally unique. 182 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: No one does this in football. But he's an MVP candidate. 183 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: He won it last year. Yeah, but he's an MVP candidate. 184 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: Him and Mike Trout are the two top MVP candidates 185 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: this year. If he removed either one, he wouldn't be 186 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: an MVP candidate. Probably umbe, he'd be on. He'd be 187 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: hitting wise, he could be MVP. Pitching wise, he wouldn't 188 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: be MVP. But if you're gonna, I mean, he's got 189 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: so much power. I mean, he's a five tool player. 190 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: Last year, the Dodgers had the two top MVP candidates preseason, 191 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: Mookie Bets and Cody Bellinger. I was wondering, when's the 192 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: last time you had two teammates who were the favorites 193 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: for m VP. You got Mike Trout and you got Shohyotani. 194 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: The thing that you see sometimes with younger players is 195 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: they will run. Joe Hay had almost thirty stolen bases. 196 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: He was probably trying to go thirty for thirty. That's 197 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 1: a lot nowadays. Remember Mike Trout ran in the beginning 198 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: a lot of players will run in the beginning, and 199 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, they don't run anymore until 200 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: that stolen base is back and has value attached to it. 201 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: You're not gonna have too many guys steal bases unless 202 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 1: they're stealing bases just to get a thirty for thirty 203 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: under their belt. But would you rather be the Hall 204 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: of Very good show? Heyutani, So you're really good, but 205 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: you're not going to be a Hall of Famer, But 206 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: you're the unicorn baseball will be, will be writing about 207 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: you for decades? Or would you rather be you know, 208 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be just a hitter or I'm just gonna 209 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 1: be a pitcher man I'd beat you could be Bo 210 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: Jackson or Frank or Frank or consistent twelve hundred yards. No, No, 211 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: I can't have Frank Gore in there. No, Frank, Frank 212 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: Gore was never the best running back. That's the point. 213 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: He was in the Hall. He was consistently good at 214 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: and he's probably gonna slide into the Hall of Fame. Frank, 215 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: He's gonna make the whole fame. Bo Jackson's not going 216 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: to Hall of Fame for either sport. Yeah, but he 217 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: is mythical. Yeah you know he is. He is. Yes, more, 218 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: Frank Gore doesn't have Nikes that I stood in line 219 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: for to buy Bo Jackson does. Oh you bought those? Were? 220 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: Those are the cross trainers across trainers. They rereleased him, 221 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: like the thing about sorry sneaker talk, the stuff that 222 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: you couldn't afford or that your mom wasn't gonna be 223 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: one hundred dollars for. Will you become an adult you 224 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: start making okay money, I'm getting those. I wanted those 225 00:12:54,240 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty nine. Frank Gore doesn't have those. I'll 226 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: sometimes walk in New York City and I'll see a 227 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: group of fifteen guys outside of store not open. It's 228 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: like eight thirty in the morning and it's not gonna 229 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: open until at least ten or eleven. And then I 230 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,599 Speaker 1: walked by, said, what's what's going on? They go, I 231 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: got a new sneaker dropping. I go, what times? What 232 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: times the store open? They said eleven? Said's eight thirty? 233 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: Said oh yeah, they're people who stayed all night all night. Oh, 234 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: it's a real thing. Like the episode of Entourage where 235 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: Turtle weights in Live for Sneers.

Nobody out a run in here 249 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: in the age. Otani sends one the other way. That 250 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: one's off the Vaunster very close.

He hit the 255 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: ball so hard it knocks down the metal jersey number 256 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: that's out there. Remarkable.

I agree? Guys? Do that? Hey, I hope 270 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: somebody from the Socks is listening. Fenway should give him 271 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: that number seventeen, the seventeen he knocked off the board. 272 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: He should get to put up in his man cave 273 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: wherever that might be. That was awesome. I love that. 274 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: That was really cool. It's just that sound. There's certain 275 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: sounds in sports, Mike, and and when the ball leaves 276 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: Otani's bat. It's different than just about anybody in baseball. 277 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: There's certain guys, like you cover golf, there certain guys 278 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: when they hit a golf ball and you go, that's different. 279 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: That's Tiger for a long time. Fred Couples hit the 280 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: most solid ball contact all the time, John Daily, You 281 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: know those guys when they hit it and just sounded different. 282 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: And that's still that's still the case for short. So 283 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: that scoreboard a Fenway reminds me, Dan, have you ever 284 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: been inside the scoreboard there or at Wrigley? That you 285 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: have annual scoreboards at Fenway but not Wrigley. Okay, that's 286 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: I've always wanted to do that. The only one of 287 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: those that I've ever had the chance to visit. At 288 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: the British Open, which is now known as the Open, 289 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: they had manual scoreboards forever and I got to go 290 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: up in one, I think one of my last ones 291 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: in the ESPAT or one of my first ones at NBC, 292 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: and it's just really really cool to be inside those 293 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: iconic antell scoreboards or hate operated scoreboards. And I've always 294 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: wanted to go to Fenway and check that one out. 295 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: Is there a comparison for the Kentucky Derby sports wise 296 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: five hundred because it's the same place every different from 297 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: Augusta because Augusta has that singular location and you know 298 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: everything about it. But this is a little bit different 299 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: because there's you know, millionaires over my shoulder, and then 300 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: you know, across the other side of the track it's 301 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: some mush pit of people and they have no idea 302 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: what's going on in the race. And that's the case 303 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 1: an Indie with the snake pit, same kind of deal. 304 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: So I think those are the most like comparisons to Derby. 305 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: There'll probably be a one hundred and fifty thousand people 306 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 1: here tomorrow and at the end of the month when 307 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 1: we go to Indie when it's over two fifty. Now 308 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 1: that we get everybody back to full attendance post pandemic, 309 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: are you giving a heads up on who might show 310 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: up their celebrity wise tomorrow a little bit and not 311 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: as much this year, at least I have it yet. 312 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: I'll get a better idea as the day goes on. 313 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: You know, Radio shows up, Aaron Rodgers shows up. I 314 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: don't know which of the Quarterback Club or how many 315 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: of them are going to show up this year, but 316 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: what the one thing that this has always been good 317 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: about is guys can go and they can kind of 318 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: hang and hide in the suites with their guys. You know. 319 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: I know Aaron's brought some offensive linemen or some receivers 320 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 1: over the years. Brady's brought ground edelemen, and if they 321 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: find us a place in the space up there. Most 322 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: of the other people have great money, great resources, great celebrity, 323 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: so they can hang without being disturbed nearly as much 324 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: as you would in some other support aments. That's kind 325 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: of cool. Mike Tariko joining us, let me give it 326 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: the full introduction.

I'm 329 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: fascinated by Bob Bob Bafford that he's got a two 330 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: year ban, but he's got two horses in the Kentucky Derby, 331 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: but he's not allowed to be on site. Is that correct? Yeah, 332 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: So the suspension that he has is a two full suspension. 333 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission, so they're the one of 334 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: the thirty eight groups that put out the rules state 335 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: by state. The rules in New York are different from California, 336 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: different from Kentucky, and so on. For the other jurisdictions 337 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: where horse racing happens, thirty eight of them, they don't 338 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: all operate under the same rules, but they'll almost in 339 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: a reciprocity manner honor suspensions. So Kentucky suspended Bathroom for 340 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,959 Speaker 1: ninety days through July second, which covers the Triple Crown races. 341 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: So New York and Maryland are going to pick up 342 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: on that suspension now separately. Churchill Downs, which is independent 343 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: from the horse racing quission to Kentucky, have said for 344 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: two years, you can't run it any of the tracks 345 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: we own, so he couldn't come here, and he can't 346 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: have Derby horses. So these two horses that he has, 347 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: Messier and Taba, are both going to run, but he 348 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: transferred them to a different trainer in early March and 349 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: can't have contact with that trainer during the process. Here. No, no, 350 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 1: he's I think he's banned from the grounds and banned 351 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 1: from training. I don't know if he would buy a 352 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: ticket and sit in the stands necessarily, but he wouldn't 353 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: be given a spot. A millionaires rose my guests from 354 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: the folks to church in battle band for two years. 355 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: What's the best story at the Kentucky Derby this year? 356 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: You know, I think it's the two trainers of the 357 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: two favorite. Steve Asmussen is one of them. He's the 358 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: trainer of Epicenter, that's the three horse. He's won more 359 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: races than anybody in North America. He's never won the Derby. 360 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: And Chad Brown is the other guy. He's as good 361 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: a trainer as there is safer Bafford. He trains number 362 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: ten Zandon Zandon. Like Brandon, he's the favorite along with Epicenter. 363 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: Brown's never won a Kentucky Derby, so it's like that. 364 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: You know, Bill self has won everything but a national championship, 365 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: gets there and finally wins it. One of those kind 366 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: of field to those two guys, they're excellent, they are 367 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: among the best in their sport, but they haven't won 368 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 1: the biggest one. That's what is probably the best storyline, 369 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: in addition to the two Bafford horses. Rain right now 370 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 1: close to fifty. Yeah, it was supposed to be pouring 371 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: right now. I thought it was going to be awful here, 372 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: but it's better now. I think we're going to dodge 373 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 1: a little bit. Today. Tomorrow looks dry, cold, but dry, 374 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: so that's going to affect my sear sucker linen suit, 375 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: a different suit. I really don't care about the horses 376 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 1: of the buddy. Yeah, of course, yes. Mike Tarico joining us. 377 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: He is the new voice for Sunday Night Football play 378 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: by play. Help me understand the end game with the 379 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: NFL that now we're going to Germany for a game 380 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: with Seattle and Tampa Bay. We've been in London for 381 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: a long time. We've been in Mexico City. I wondered, Mike, 382 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: was seventeen game schedule. I get that. I get that 383 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: extra game that I can sort of play with if 384 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: I'm the NFL, and then I'm not taking away your 385 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: home games. You're still gonna get eight home games. But 386 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: I don't know where we're going with this other than 387 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 1: let's broaden our reach. What's the end game? Yeah, you know, 388 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: the whole thought of you put a team in London. 389 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: I think when you start to look at okay, guys 390 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 1: get cut, You've got to bring in a kicker on 391 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: a Friday or something like that. I don't know how 392 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: feasible it is to have an entire team for an 393 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 1: entire season in London. I thought that was part of 394 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: the end game, and I don't know if it still is. 395 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: I do like the fact that they've given countries teams 396 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 1: or vice versa. They've given teams countries, Hey, Cardinals and 397 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,719 Speaker 1: other teams. Mexico is your area, So go promote, let 398 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: them fall in love with a team, and then we'll 399 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: see if you can take that one game someplace. Every year. 400 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: The Jaguars have actually built up some sort of a 401 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: following in London because they go every year. Just like 402 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 1: look at look at the Premier League. My son is 403 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 1: a huge Chelsea fan. There are a ton of Chelsea 404 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,119 Speaker 1: fans here in the US. So you can build that. 405 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 1: Now can the NFL build that in these seven or 406 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: eight countries that we know want to watch American football? 407 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: That's the end game to me. I's also curious your 408 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: take on name, image and likeness. You have the SEC 409 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: in the Pac twelve going to Washington, DC. It's almost 410 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: like there's a tax loophole that everybody's going to take 411 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: advantage of before they realized, we got to stop this 412 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: tax loophole. Six months from nowhere, Where are we headed 413 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: with name image and likeness hang onses are going by 414 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: the first ration of starting. I couldn't hear you. The 415 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 1: horses were going by um In all seriousness, I look, 416 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: Mark Embert didn't do a good job as a head 417 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: of the NCA. I don't think there's any way you 418 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: could argue that he was significantly impactful in a positive way. 419 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: But this is the worst time to have a lame 420 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: duck there for the rest of the year. And then 421 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: somebody knew coming in figuring out where's the furniture? What 422 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: can I do? College at fletiture is so screwed up 423 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 1: right now, name, image and likeness. They just said, hey, 424 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 1: let's go figure it out. Now they're trying to rain 425 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: it back in. You know, should players be getting compensated? Yes, 426 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 1: what should it be used to recruit players? If that's 427 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 1: the case, we're only going to have a certain number 428 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: of people playing. Here's the question. Does it tie into 429 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 1: the mission of your college university in any way? Are 430 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 1: they going to school? Are there any part of what 431 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: you do? If not, then let's still have minor league 432 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: sports somewhere and keep college sports. We had a chance 433 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: to find a balance, and nobody was in charge at 434 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: that point when they needs happened. I don't think you're 435 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 1: gonna get the genie back to the bottle. And I'm 436 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: worried about six eight teams in brains, but I was 437 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: going to have forty or fifty that can compete in football. 438 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: That's what makes football really good. And I don't think 439 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna have them anymore. Yeah, I wonder if you 440 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: just get a billionaire who decides that I want my 441 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 1: school to be relevant. And let's say it's a billionaire 442 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: who donates to Tulsa. And imagine if Elon Musk wanted 443 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: to spend money on the University of Pennsylvania football team 444 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: and just said, hey, I'm gonna I'm gonna spend fifty 445 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: million dollars here. You know, I want my team to 446 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: be relevant. No if if somebody who's an alum of 447 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: a school is like that, Look look at what the 448 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: Nike presence has done for war in all sports, facility, 449 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: everything else. I mean, you now will go to Eugene, 450 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: from la from Phenix, from all the geographically populated areas 451 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 1: in the West Coast because of the Nike gear, because 452 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,959 Speaker 1: the facilities, because it's cutting edge in state of the art, 453 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: in so many ways, and that's what a boosters impact 454 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: can have now as opposing through a company and through 455 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: the donations to the university. It's right to the kids. 456 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: So why not I say that Elon Musk should try that. 457 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 1: I'm thinking Syracuse are dating give our schools a bunch 458 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: of money and we'll see if it works. If we're 459 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: gonna play, let's play in the big leagues, right, why not? 460 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,800 Speaker 1: Do you have a goofy looking outfit tomorrow? It feels 461 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: like it's open season when you go to the derby, 462 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: you can wear something that you'd never wear again never. 463 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 1: I come back every year, so I'm kind of basic. 464 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 1: The tile be okay. They asked me to put on 465 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: a hat for the Today Show. I showed up like 466 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: this in a ball cap, like this is this is 467 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 1: the best I can do. I don't look good in hats. 468 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: Do you look good in like the man's hat? Yeah? 469 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: I don't either. I put it off for the Today's 470 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,719 Speaker 1: Show for like two minutes to look awful, But I 471 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 1: did it for the light, for Roker and for the gag. 472 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: Why why did they want a hat on you? Because 473 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: I was with Dylan Dryer and she's wearing a hat 474 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: and a fascinator and you know everybody tried. My wife's 475 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: coming for the first time and she has hatch the 476 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 1: hotel room. He's trying on different hats. Disaster. I told her, 477 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 1: I said, you better learn how to bet. You better 478 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: win money because we're spending a lot of money on 479 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: hat ever gonna wear at this point.

Quick story about horse racing. 497 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 1: About ten years ago, the wife and I decided to 498 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: go to an OTV with some friends, have some drinks, 499 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,239 Speaker 1: bet into three dollars at a time on horses to win. 500 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: We know nothing. She looks at the paper there it says, hey, 501 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,719 Speaker 1: I like this horse thirty five to one named Bologney Lips. 502 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: And I said to her, I'm not leaving my beer 503 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: at the table. Will lappen to go put a three 504 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: dollars bet on Bologne? He left? Long story short, blowney 505 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: Lips wins by three lengths every year at Derby time. 506 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: She looks at me and says, Bologney take her head 507 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: the way. That's all I got, But thank you, Steve. 508 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: I used to cover the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont 509 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: in the Preakness, and when I was at CNN and 510 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: I got to go to these races. I remember being 511 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: at the Belmont and I would always bet, but I bet, 512 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 1: you know, maybe twenty five dollars fifty dollars at the most. 513 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: I remember winning my bet at the Belmont, and uh, 514 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 1: you know, you feel great like I won the Belmont. 515 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: I got my ticket. Here, I'm going up to cash 516 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna I'm gonna make forty eight dollars. But damn, 517 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm I'm a handicapper. So I go 518 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: up there, and Andrew Bayer, the longtime horse racing expert 519 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: with the Washington Post, is in front of me. So 520 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: I'm getting ready because I got forty eight dollars. He 521 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: gives his ticket and this is in the press room 522 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: that you could cash in your ticket, and it came 523 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: up forty eight thousand, six hundred and some dollars and 524 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: I wait, oh my god. He so he's cashing at 525 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: forty eight thousand. I'm next, and I'm cashing at forty 526 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: eight dollars. That was that. You know, there are guys 527 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 1: that you know, spend a lot of money there, bet 528 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: a lot of money. But that's first time I saw 529 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 1: something that it was like that large of a bet 530 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: or paying off for Andrew Bayer. But he was always great. 531 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: I'd read his columns and you know you can make 532 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: money there, but covering Belmont Preakness, and a lot of 533 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: great moments. There covered a lot of great horses, a 534 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: lot of great trainers as well.

I've also 548 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: spent a lot of time this week on name, image 549 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 1: and likeness. I'm fascinated of what it is and where 550 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: it's going. And I liken this to a tax loophole 551 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: that everybody's trying to take advantage of now because they're 552 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: going to close this up at some point Heather Denis 553 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: knows a whole lot more about this than I do. 554 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: She's a senior writer for ESPN dot com. And well, 555 00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: let me start with the beginning of this week. Heather, 556 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: how would you recap what happened this week in college 557 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: football with name, image and likeness. Well, I would recap 558 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: it by saying it became a perfect storm really with 559 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: I mean, throw it into a blender with a transfer portal, 560 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: and that's where you have what happened at Pitt and 561 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: you've got their starwide receiver putting his name into transfer portal. 562 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: I mean I spoke to their quarterback, now Keith and Slovis, 563 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: who up and moved his collegiate life across the country 564 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: to go to Pitt to play there in large part 565 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: because of that receiver, And now he might not be there. 566 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: And that's just kind of shows where we are. But 567 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: this has been happening for a long time. I think 568 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: the issue of the transfer portal has exacerbated what you're 569 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: seeing with name, image and likeness. Yeah, and I wondered 570 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: you have the Pack twelve and SEC commissioners going to Washington, 571 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 1: d C. What are they lobbying for? Well, they're lobbying 572 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: for a legendslat of help, meaning somebody tells what the 573 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: rules are. And Dan. It's fascinating to me that those 574 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: are the two people who are going, not NCAA President 575 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: Mark Emmert, who's on his way out, and you know, 576 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: to have these two commissioners who are literally two of 577 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: the most powerful people in college athletics right now, one 578 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: from the state of California, which is a very blue state, 579 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: one from the SEC, which represents a lot of red 580 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: states United As they walk into the United States Senate 581 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: to meet with these senators, I think sends a very 582 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: powerful message about not only how serious they are about 583 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: asking for help, but to be quiet, blunt, how desperate 584 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: college athletics is for some guidance because clearly they have 585 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: not gotten it from Indianapolis. And I feel like they're 586 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: almost circumventing the NCAA. They're just saying, you know, you guys, 587 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: just stay there in your little bubble in Indianapolis. We're 588 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: going to take care of this. We're going to be 589 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: on the initiative there. And you know, Greg Sanky is 590 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: as power's more powerful than more camera radios. How is name, 591 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: image and likeness bad for college football? Well, I think 592 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: time will tell just how bad it is, because again 593 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: you've got you can't talk about that without talking about 594 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: the transfer portal. How many kids are going to be 595 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: in the portal with nowhere to go, right, I mean, 596 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 1: it's bad right this skinny minute, because college coaches have 597 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 1: no idea who's on their roster right everything ties into 598 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: something else, which is why they're trying to get these 599 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: transfer windows. One in the last November or excuse me, 600 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 1: the last Sunday of November that leads up to early 601 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: Signing Day and another window kind of around now mid 602 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: April to May first, which is currently the only deadline 603 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: to put your name in the portal right now is 604 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: May first, and so they're hoping, well, but at least 605 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: we narrow these windows that'll help coaches tell who on 606 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: their roster. Like but to the example of Slovisa, Hey, 607 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: guys have to know who they're playing with too. They 608 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: have to know what they're signing up for when they move. 609 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,560 Speaker 1: I mean I spoke with one athletic actor when I 610 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: was in Scottsdale s week who told this anecdote of 611 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: we had this great linebacker who wanted a car, and 612 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,720 Speaker 1: so he goes to the local car dealership and says, hey, 613 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: you know, on the up and up, what can we 614 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: do to help this kid out? The car dealers like, wow, 615 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: I'm not really comfortable with that. So the kid leaves, 616 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: goes and gets this car somewhere else and tweets a 617 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: picture of it, by the way, So that's kind of 618 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: where it is. And so to be able to have 619 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: some legislation and look, there's no nobody is kind of 620 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: blind to the reality of everyone knows how slow things 621 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: work in Congress. They're not gonna because they had this 622 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: meeting change things today. And by bullsby the outgoing Big 623 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: twelve commissioner was very clear about that, saying, you know, 624 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 1: it's not like anything is going to change before the 625 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: midterm elections anyway. But to start those conversations and ask 626 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: for help, I think is an important step, be it 627 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,919 Speaker 1: symbolic or not. In where college athletics is. Why don't 628 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 1: we just pull back the curtain on this, Heather and 629 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: just say let's have a super conference. Let's have forty 630 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:05,280 Speaker 1: of the top football programs, and you could almost structure 631 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: it like the NFL and just say, look, this is 632 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 1: big business. You're getting paid, Come on in, We're gonna 633 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: add the haves and the have nots, then you'll have 634 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: everybody going to one double A or whatever it's going 635 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,760 Speaker 1: to be. But that just feels like that's where we're headed. 636 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: It does, but everybody has to pump the brakes on that, 637 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: like we look at it through a tunnel vision, like 638 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: everyone is. The SEC which is not college football and 639 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: college athletics as a whole is far broader than the 640 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,439 Speaker 1: Ohio States and Alabamas of the world. Right, so there 641 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 1: has to be some recognition of the Olympic sports of 642 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: Title nine. How that impacts the softball players, the baseball players, 643 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: I mean, you name it, right, and so there is 644 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,719 Speaker 1: an aspect to that. Now. When I was in Scottsdale, 645 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: Ohio State Athletic Director Jeane Smith, he's one of the 646 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: veteran people in college athletics. When he talks people listen, 647 00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: he said, why don't we put the ten FBS conferences 648 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 1: under the college Football playoff umbrella. Let's rethink this whole 649 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: thing as we think playoff expansion. And his idea is 650 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 1: the NCAA can continue to host championships for those Olympic 651 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: sports and men's and women's hoops and we'll deal with 652 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: this here with football, and some people say that's not 653 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: a bad idea, but we need a sort of VP 654 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: of operations for college football, like a Dan Gavitt who 655 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 1: does the same thing for college basketball. So now people 656 00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: are at least starting to think out of the box. 657 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: But you can't not remember these other college athletes. I mean, 658 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: you know, I met the Michigan State athletic director for 659 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: the first time who was almost in tears. He was 660 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,399 Speaker 1: so emotional about his gymnastics team and what they accomplished 661 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: four years after the Larry Nazer scandal, And so just 662 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: people care. There are people who care about those other athletes. 663 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: Thank you, Heather, and we'll be watching. Thanks for joining us. 664 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: Thanks Dan, Heather Dennis. She covers college football ESPN Insider, 665 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:10,000 Speaker 1: National College Football Writer ESPN dot Com. Keep this in mind, 666 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:15,439 Speaker 1: have this on good authority. Name image and likeness has 667 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 1: been around for a long time. The concept of name 668 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: image and likeness. When did Mark Emirate takeover as the 669 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:28,799 Speaker 1: president of the nah nin name image and likeness was 670 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 1: there in front of him. Name image and likeness has 671 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: been around a long time. But you know what they 672 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: tried to do. They tried to fight this instead of 673 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 1: saying so. They spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying 674 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: to fight this because they didn't want to have the 675 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,600 Speaker 1: student athlete to have a voice, They didn't want the 676 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: student athlete to get paid by the university. They panicked, 677 00:37:53,320 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: they panicked. The president of the NCAA was told, have 678 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: student athletes help with this process. The ncuble A just 679 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: said no, we're going to fight this, and they have 680 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: spent over a decade fighting name, image and likeness in 681 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: here we are. They don't know what they're doing, they 682 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: had knowledge of it, and they chose not to manage 683 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 1: it fairly. Something's got to change. You have to have 684 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: somebody in an authoritative power position that you respect. And 685 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: I don't think you can have one person head up 686 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 1: the NCAA. I think you have to have a panel, 687 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: a board of directors, and then you can kind of 688 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 1: farm out things. You know, you start with your big business, 689 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: you know, your big moneymakers. You start with college football, 690 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 1: you start with college basketball, and then you can have 691 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 1: some people dealing with the ancillary sports there. Give them 692 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: the respect that they deserve. But you know, the ncuble 693 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: A that felt like they were the bully on the block. 694 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 1: Until they kind of looked up and went, nobody's afraid 695 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 1: of us. They don't do anything, They don't investigate. The 696 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,280 Speaker 1: only time somebody gets in trouble or got in trouble 697 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: is Yahoo Sports or ESPN, somebody Fox Sports. They go 698 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: here it is we got a whole story here, And 699 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 1: then the NC double ages, all right, hey, can you 700 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: go wake up Johnny and uh and Tom Sally might 701 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: be at lunch. I don't know, see if they can 702 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 1: come on, and who's on the golf course having them 703 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: come in. We got to deal with this stuff. And 704 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: that feels like that's where we are. Yeah, Polly, I 705 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 1: think your point is exactly out about the tax loophole. 706 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 1: When there's no rules right now with nil, every athlete 707 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 1: is going to max out everything's on the table because 708 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: they know a year from now it could be different rules. Yes, 709 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: maybe not a cap on them, but a cap on 710 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: the schools to pay or to funnel the money whatever 711 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 1: you'll call. I think that'll be the key is, you know, 712 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 1: when when you're asking Congress to help you, like, what 713 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: do we do here? Are they going to have a 714 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: salary cap for name, image and likeness? I guess, but 715 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back and tell you what I was 716 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 1: told by a source who works in an administrative at 717 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: a big time university said, there's gonna be more cheating 718 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: if you cap this. Let's say a football team can 719 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 1: have ten million dollars, that's their salary cap. They're gonna 720 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: go behind your back. That's what they used to do. 721 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 1: So ten million can be legal up front, and then 722 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 1: you're going to have five or ten million that won't 723 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: be That's what's gonna happen. Gordon in Washington, Hey Gordon, 724 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 1: what's on your mind today? Hey Dan, how are you 725 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 1: doing today? Good sir? You had that story about Tom 726 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:56,280 Speaker 1: Braiding admitting that the tuck play was a fumble. Yet yeah, 727 00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: you kind of hinted that you felt sorry a bit 728 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 1: for a Raider fan. Yeah, that game game Well, I 729 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: don't feel sorry for Raider fan at all because that 730 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 1: Holy Roller play still the Dave Casper Holy Roller play. 731 00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: Uh oh gosh. Yeah, but this is why I feel sorry. Well, 732 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: Raider fans have been toyed with for a long long time. Hey, 733 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: where's our team going to be next year? Carson City, 734 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: Los Angeles? Staying in Oakland, We're moving to Vegas. But 735 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: that play. When you hear Brady, then say it the 736 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,920 Speaker 1: way he said. He play it again, Marvin. The other 737 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 1: voice on here is Justin Biebert. Tell me something on 738 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: it against the Raiders. Um, do I think Tom believes 739 00:41:56,040 --> 00:42:00,880 Speaker 1: it was a fumble? Yes, it was called in accordance 740 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: to what the you know, the rule states, it's just 741 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: a flawed rule. It was a fumble, absolutely, But if 742 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 1: you're a Raider fan, do you go? He finally admitted it, 743 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 1: as opposed to he won't admit it. So you do 744 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 1: hear it? Do you feel any better? It's like, okay, 745 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,360 Speaker 1: all right, feel a little bit better. But you know, 746 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: all I know is Brady had a big smile on 747 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: his face. But he said it probably had one of 748 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,200 Speaker 1: his Super Bowl rings on as well. Yeah, Paul, I 749 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 1: just went back and looked at Holy Roller Place because 750 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,919 Speaker 1: it's a little before my time. So that's nineteen seventy eight, 751 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: is it? Raiders Chargers? Raiders Chargers is game one of 752 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: the season. John Madden was the head coach at Raiders. 753 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 1: So it was one of those last minute plays and 754 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: they try to do like a pitch and Dave Casper 755 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: was a really good tight end for the Raiders. He's 756 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: like faking like he's picking up the ball. He's more 757 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 1: tapping it forward and rolling it forward. But he does 758 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 1: a good job selling it. I don't even know if 759 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 1: there's a rule he's breaking at the time and he 760 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 1: falls on the end zone. It's it's a good video. 761 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 1: Holy Roller. Great nickname for that, the Holy Roller. Uh 762 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,880 Speaker 1: Sam in Iowa? Hi Sam, what's on your mind today? 763 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 1: Hey Dan? How's it going? Good? Sir? You're talking about Westbrook. 764 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: You think he might stay with the Lakers. Well, I 765 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,879 Speaker 1: definitely do. Last yesterday you were talking about Lebron where 766 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna go a while. I thought it. I was 767 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: on the understanding he already made it clear that he 768 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 1: was going to go play Lebronni whoever drafted Bronni so level, 769 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 1: Josh Brownie, Lebron is done and that will put more 770 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 1: on Westbrook and he'll pretty much be roun the show 771 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: in La. Well, you're gonna have Anthony Davis there. I 772 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: just wonder, if you're Lebron, you're not going to win 773 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: another championship. I don't think because the West is young 774 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: and really good. I just don't see that that nucleus 775 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 1: there winning a championship and if you're Lebron, what's left 776 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: win a championship and play with your son on a team? 777 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: All right, Well, you're not going to be able to 778 00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 1: control where your son goes to play if somebody drafts him, 779 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 1: if Orlando drafts him. Is Lebron going to Orlando? How 780 00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 1: bad does he want to play on the same team 781 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 1: as his son? And he's got to wait two years? 782 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: What about contract extension? I think, uh, two years, one 783 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars for Lebron, But I wonder if he 784 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 1: wants to stay. Is Lebron and he got the six 785 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 1: six hundred million that he's made six hundred on the floor, 786 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 1: on the floor like salaries. I don't think anyone's over 787 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: four hundred for their career. Oh wasn't that Kevin Garnett? 788 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 1: Kevin Garnett? Okay, Okay, So if he signs this new deal, 789 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 1: all right, dude, can we play career salary game? Oh? Yeah, 790 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:56,720 Speaker 1: here we go. Club's open salaly. Salary, salal salary, sy 791 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 1: sy seven lady speed before turn. All right, Paul, what 792 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 1: do you have for Lebron James? Okay, Lebron James made 793 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 1: four million as a rookie. He's never been the highest 794 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,439 Speaker 1: paid player in the league any year that could find. 795 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 1: He's never been the highest bad player in the NBA. 796 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 1: That's kind of fascinating. He is currently made all right, 797 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 1: guess how much Lebron has made up to this point, 798 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,800 Speaker 1: including this season. Three two hole, Hold on it, I 799 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 1: need a second. Okay, I'm gonna give you big bonus points. 800 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 1: Three hundred nine million dollars. That is a walk off. 801 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,239 Speaker 1: I need you to stay, Okay, twenty minutes. Um, he's 802 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 1: got forty five million on the way next season, and 803 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 1: then you could assume, so let's say a tax on 804 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty million more, that sounds about right, 805 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: then he'll be five fifty Yeah, maybe a little more 806 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 1: than yah. Yeah. And then when he's made off the 807 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,439 Speaker 1: floor as well and worth it, yeah he is. Yeah. 808 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 1: I just I just wonder, you know, do you want 809 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 1: to stay and just play because it's Los Angeles or 810 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,240 Speaker 1: do you want to try to go to some other team? 811 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 1: And I think that's going to be really hard. You know, 812 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,479 Speaker 1: Lebron is earned over a billion dollars since he turned 813 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,800 Speaker 1: pro in two thousand and three.
